Justinian I Award

For defending us against the Vandals, you are awarded the Justinian I Award. --Nlu (talk) 06:41, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Block that you wanted more info about

Thanks for your concerns. I have been unblocked. As our instituion uses (from what I can gather) one IP address for every single computer useing the proxy server to connect to the internet, it (I am almost 93.229% sure) is an IP problem. However, if, you still feel it is a username issue, my username will be visible when I use the four tiers. Thanks, --themit 06:48, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for reverting all that vandalism on my user_talk: page. — xaosflux ^Talk 12:17, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

re: Autoblock

Dear Luna, I don't know why I was blocked on my first attempt to play in the sandbox, but I am no longer blocked, so please disregard my previous message. Thank you for your time and attention.

What happened to my article?

Hello,

Last Week i created a Star Trek Fan Fiction article and i'm curious as to why it was deleted. I have never posted an article here before so perhaps you can enlighten me as to what was wrong? 70.56.29.151 23:26, 25 October 2006 (UTC) Mike Mendez[reply]

Regarding the user who vandalised my user page and flamed me off-wiki

You probably will remember that yesterday, I went to IRC to report that my userpage had been vandalised by someone who had flamed me off-wiki.

He and I have mediated through e-mail, and reached a reasonable compromise, so that we'll leave each other alone.

However, he has demanded that you stop editing his talk page. I understand that you have edited his talk page to warn him, and to restore warnings that he has removed. I tried to explain Wikipedia policy to him, but he threathened to take legal action against me should you edit his talk page one more time.

Therefore, could you stop editing his talk page? If neccesary, you could let another admin handle this.

--J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:30, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not alter or tamper with my user page again. Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Solcuerda (talk • contribs) 25 October 2006.

Block on IP Vandal 139.142.135.106

Thank you for blocking 139.142.135.106 from making changes to wikipedia pages. I have investigated, and linked User: mroche to the problem user. They made changes from calgary science school, and got css' IP blocked. I ask that you leave CSS blocked, and also block Mroche from making changes too. Otherwise, he will no doubt continue vandalize various wiki pages. Thanks, 68.144.239.145 01:32, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the help...again

Nice page...I like the Stop, hammer time banner...if I ever suffer a (even more serious) mental breakdown and seek/gain admin status, I'm stealing it. LOL Tvccs 07:39, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One for you to look at...any input appreciated

Have a page I'm having to mess with due to what I find is a far too "rulesy" interpretation of permission - I got specific permission from Mitchel Forman and then had people claim the email I sent them/posted granting said could have been false and other stuff I find ridiculous. Got a CSD amd then a copyrightvio despite sending/posting the permission e-mail. In this case, I think it's people going totally overboard on protecting against a possible copyright vio which isn't going to be an issue, and now I have had to bug the artist in question just to super-clarify GFDL - and my contributions should readily indicate (I think anyway), I'm one of the last people to do a copyright vio. I've got a number of people I want to add images to I can't get a clear license for, as one of many examples, where I have specifically not added possible copyright vios. Again, my thanks.

sorry

i'm sorry for the vandalism from my account. i was doing research when my parents wanted to talk to me i i assume that 1 of my little sisters vandalized your site because when i got back i had a message saying that i was blocked from editing information (which i don't anyway but i would like to be allowed to add helpful information). i am very sorry for my little sisters mistake. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Reitzaleah (talk • contribs) 26 October 2006.

To help you with your welcoming of new Esperanza members...

... TangoTango has kindly written up a script that once a week lists all of the new members to Esperanza. The list can be found at User:Tangotango/New members of Esperanza; it is updated once a week, and will show all of the new members since the last update. If you're not sure if everyone who joined the past week has been welcomed, that is a great place to check! I hope that helps you in your welcome, and thank you for making a point to greet new Esperanzians! -- Natalya 18:29, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you delete Velocity Micro entry

Hi there, I am wondering why you deleted my Velocity Micro entry. There are plenty of other companies out there with the same exact type of profile. How do you suppose I change it? And since you deleted it, how do I get it back to make changes? Psnb 21:08, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You Are AMAZING!

I was just warning the person who created the article "fredric likes to shit on peoples heads" or something like that, when you removed my text, with your own, well done, keep up the vigilance, and have a good day!

Thanks

Thank you so much. My roomate is soo immature but luckily I'll be graduating in a month ^^. Monbro 10:19, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AfD

Luna, it is in the wrong name space, the AfD fails to function properly because it restricts its own use to the main pages! --Mike 10:21, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Luna thanks for the advice. Unfortunatley, I'm an incrementalist and that means I don't know what I'm doing, only that it appears to work at the moment!

Nr9

Hey Luna!

I asked about it here Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive58#User:Nr9 but got no direct help. However, on IRC (or Skype, I can't now recall) someone pointed me to User_talk:Curps/archive27#Nr9 indefinite block where Curps had some clear evidence and some good reasoning for the block.

Hope this helps! ➨ ЯEDVERS 12:04, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

is it fun deleting articles?

just because you dont understand what they are about? or why else did you delete La Coka Nostra? --who-am-i 15:36, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

La Coka Nostra

What's going on? Is this a hoax or something? It looks legit to me. Friday (talk) 19:13, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It was deleted by another Admin under CSD A7 and there have been several repost Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 19:14, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There's no way this was an a7. I was in the process of moving one of the reposts, but I've restored for now. Unless this is a hoax, there's no way I can see that it's a valid speedy. And it doesn't look like a hoax to me, at first glance. If we really wanna delete this I think it deserves a fair shot at Afd, unless there's some obvious reason for deletion that I'm not seeing. Friday (talk) 19:16, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This user User:Who-am-i is another sock puppet of a banned user. Has been repeatedly done personal attacks. as been blocked for recreating reposted material and has had three socks allready blocked due to harmful editing practices. see also [1] Luna Santin's origional deletion and message to the user. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 19:23, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This may be a good reason to block an editor, but I don't see how it's a good reason to delete the page. But, I'll make that case on the talk page. Thanks for the info. Friday (talk) 19:25, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

PS they have reposted for about the 6th time the newest La Coka Nostra (group) Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 19:27, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well there's obviously lots to this story that I don't know about, but I really cannot fault an editor for objecting to such an obviously wrong deletion. (This does not, of course, excuse whatever bad behavior this editor has engaged in.) I turned this other thing into a redir and put a note on the talk page explaining my reasoning. Friday (talk) 19:30, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I came by to leave you a note about this, but the explanation has already been copied here. Not only are these guys not a valid speedy, it looks like they very easily meet WP:MUSIC per the clause about "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable".

Open letter

Evv, Deiz, Calton and Luna Santin I really appreciate the help and support that you were doing lately on my articles but honestly there is no need for that. I would like to advise you people to take care for articles like Ratko Mladić, Mr. Slobodan Milosevic and others like them and help the general readers know the truth about their miserable massacres that they did to kids and insistent people in Bosnia and Kosovo .

There is not just Mr. Abazi’s article that has been vandalized by you but all the Kosovo famous and honorable people including the history of Kosovo. It has been so clear that all the editing that you people have done about that Country is just to make a bad propaganda now that finally Serbia will lose for ever Kosovo in its final status which for sure would be Independent country as it disserves.

I understand your feeling because you are grown in the communism system where everything was leaded by the dictator and you were their kids doing the same they did with people from Kosovo. Even now through the internet you wana talk about us believing in your fathers lies that Kosovo is yours. 7 is the century that we accepted you in that region to work, clean for us and 7 [2007] is gona be the number that you gona say Goodbye for ever to Kosovo. Listen people Wikipedia is free and you can create any network to put adds and protected your fake ideas but please put ones your finger in your head and ask your self how can this be yours when there was never more than 10% shkije - serbs in there And what right do you have to talk about it when you may have never been there and when the whole world knows that Kosova/o is not Slavic place . Tell your fathers that All the churches and abbeys where owned by chthonic Albanians before 1200 and Vatican has the property papers for that. Accept the truth.

For the end. There wouldn’t be any other respond on this desiccation page or any other like this from me. I just needed to tell you this. You can take it off if you feel like some none Balkan people will read this little truth. You do what you can to lie and I do what I can to tell the truth with my articles. Beni —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.121.55.31 (talk) 28 October 2006

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what you're talking about. I assume it has something to do with [[3]], but I can't say for sure. Whatever the case, I think you need to read WP:OWN -- these are not "your" articles, they belong to the community as a whole. While you're at it, I'd encourage you to read policies on verifiability, neutral point of view, and the like. I'll readily admit I'm not familiar enough with the history, here, so if I've reverted you it's probably because I think you've done something to flagrantly violate one of those policies. Anyway, please remember that Wikipedia is based in reliable sources and not original research. Regards, Luna Santin 17:00, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the Unblock!

Re:Use of helpmes to request unblocking

Just thought you might like to know about {{helpme-unblock}}. :) A few of us on IRC figured it was time to make one, a few weeks back; I don't think it's quite perfect, yet, so feel free to tinker with it if you like. Luna Santin 23:07, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi and thanks for the info! The template is nice. I used a variation of it, because it seems weird when the user has requested to be unblocked already. What do you think about a second version for that case? I copy paste it there if you want to do something, I don't add it on WP because I can't find a name that would suit it -- lucasbfr ^talk 00:08, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, you used the {{helpme}} tag to request unblocking, but that tag is generally more appropriate for questions regarding how to use, browse, or edit Wikipedia. Don't worry, the {{unblock}} template is enough to get your block reviewed. Administrators will be able to find your page and review the circumstances of your block, even if it has been reviewed already. You can also discuss the situation with the blocking administrator over email, or find other administrators to email here. You can also join a Wikipedia IRC channel or use the unblock-en-l mailing list to request unblocking. Please bear in mind that most of the users responding to helpme requests are not administrators. Thank you, and good luck.

Ahh, good point. If all else fails, "helpme-unblock2" can't be too horrible a name. Can always move it if anybody thinks of something better. Luna Santin 00:11, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that was the name I thought about but it seemed confusing, regarding the test templates numbering. I'll be bold and do it then :) Regarding the talk page, I've always been lost. I really never know on which userpage are the conversations supposed to take place -- lucasbfr ^talk 00:34, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:Khalilak

He showed up at a time that page (and others of a similar vein) were being flooded with socks; if you check his contributions, his first edit was to jump right into an established debate. That does worry me somewhat. --InShaneee 01:49, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
