What do ya know?
I'm listening to you right now Murderbike. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 05:57, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- The song. Do you play in a band? And now I'm listening to "Of Chivilary and Romance in a Dumpster"...wait, now it's "Drugtown." Damn, the only complaint I have about This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb is their cd's are too short. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:08, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Now it's "Sixteen Tons." I just got this cd yesterday and I already had Front Seat Solidarity. Anyways, I swear the opening riff to this song sounds a lot like "Terminal Preppie" Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:12, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Can't say that I do know the original. Is it by TBIAPB? My favorite song on this cd is "The Black Panther Song." Anyway, I noticed your edit to folk punk and obviously the name stuck out since I was listening to the song at the time. I'm about to put in oi polloi I think though. BTW, I properly capitalized your band's name for you since you asked about it on the talk page. Are you guys and/or gals going to be in CA anytime soon? Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:19, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Hee hee...
I love the new userbox. I have a button on my jacket that says "Against abortion? Have a vasectomy." Haven't followed it myself since I think I'm too young to make such a permanent decision on that front, but yeah. I also like the saying "If you can't trust me with a choice, how can you trust me with a child?" Anyway, I'll leave you alone for now. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 05:43, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, I really love kids and on one level I want to have one of my own, but I really don't want to contribute to the population and I don't want to bring a new life into this depressing world so the whole adoption idea looks really good to me. I'm still several years away from that sort of thing though. As of now my only child is my dog. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 05:50, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Your New Article
Not bad. Never heard of them so it was a learning experince. Just make sure you have citations for everything (although chances are it will never be much of a problem). Was Makhno a part of the group? Russian and Ukranian anarchist history is something I need to brush up on more. I recently got a book on Cuban anarchism though, but I have to finish The Culture of Make Believe by Derrick Jensen first. Luckily I'm on break till the 16th or so (I love college). Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:23, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- I knew Makhno is usually considered the main person associated with platformism which is why I asked since the text of the article didn't mention him and he was only in the see also section. As for the book, it looks like it's a broad overview. The chapters are based on time periods, the first being 1865-1898 and the last (minus the conclusion) is 1962-2001 (the post-"revolution" period I believe). I've always wanted to travel Latin America and I thought this book would be informative if I were to ever travel to Cuba. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:41, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
re: vandals
Hey there, to answer your question, yes you do have to be an admin to block IP's even if they are persistently vandalizing a page. BUT, you can alert an admin when you see that a vandal has been persistently vandalizing pages by posting his IP address (in this case: 66.217.49.175) on WP:AIV and an admin will take care of the problem for you. I hope this answered your question in a way that was easy to follow; if not, contact me on my talk page and I would be more than glad to help you). Cheers! Wikipediarules2221 02:51, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
- I gave him a warning for now, but let me know if he keeps vandalizing the page. Wikipediarules2221 02:55, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
DAB pages
Hi Murderbike, and thanks for your message. I think you'll find creating a disambiguation page is no different to a normal page. Typically it'll contain the phrase "(disambiguation)" following it, e.g. Apple (disambiguation). That's a good example - you'd then usually write "Apple can be:"... and add all your links to the various types of things an apple can be. Finally, you'd usually finish the page of with a {{dab}} or {{disambig}} template, which will automatically categorise the page as a disambiguation page. Hope this helps, if not, or indeed, if so, let me know how you get on! Cheers! Budgiekiller 20:28, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Not a problem, looks like you got it spot on! Don't hesitate to get in touch again if you need anything else. Cheers! Budgiekiller 21:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Re: Images
Gee, wish I could help you there. I don't know and don't care to know much about the whole image thing. Sarge Baldy might be a good person to ask, he's an anarchist and an admin here, so he'll probably know more about all that legal stuff. I had a hard enough time trying to prove the Food Not Bombs logo was public domain. I actually ended up talking to one of the founders of Food Not Bombs on the phone to get that whole thing clarified. I think if you have an image of his work though it could be considedered fair use. Also, that external link isn't working, at least not for me. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:21, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Anarcho-punk and sXe
Hi, would you mind taking a look at the section titled "Input needed at Anarcho-punk and Straight edge" at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Punk music. Thanks. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 02:21, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Seriously. Your page is getting vandalized more than mine ever was when I was as new as you. If you want I have a section on my userpage that shows some of the vandalism I've gotten. It's all so stupid. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:38, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, doing recent page patrolling tends to get your page vandalized a bit. There was vandalism on my page where the person kept replacing my page with the classic Che image with a slash through it and it said "this is what happens to traitors" or something, but the image was deleted so you can't really see it anymore. It was pretty funny. Ungovernable ForceGot something to say? 06:05, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Re: Thanks
Hi. I'm not sure which vandalism revert you're referring to, but I do what I can. —Wknight94 (talk) 05:16, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Oh that! Yeah, no problem. Sorry, it all starts to blend together after a while. —Wknight94 (talk) 05:20, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
RE: C.H.U.N.K. 666
Thx for working on CHUNK - your wiki handle and the other wikipedia stuff you are working on makes it pretty obvious to me that you know more about them than I do. I'm outta here.. Quackking 05:36, 8 January 2007 (UTC)quackking
I wish the original CHUNK site was still around - the old one, from the mid 90's was excellent and very literate. That's where that quote came from (in my memory only, I can't find a cached copy of it) - where they said because life is short, and should be painful as well... heh..Quackking 05:45, 8 January 2007 (UTC)quackking
political art / etc
Hi Murderbike - I'm coming to your page via the CFD on Category:Subversive artists. Subversive is a bit hard to define, but I agree that political art is an important category and have been working on various subcats to include political art in appropriate subcats -- political fiction, and so on. What do you think of the general hierarchy tree Category:Political art and Category:Political artists under which the various subcats of political (environmental, feminist, anarchist, Marxist, etc.) and art (literature, fiction, poetry, music, art, etc.) would be housed? --lquilter 21:25, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Alemdjrodo Kangni and other foreign-language articles
There's a tag - {{db-notenglish}} - for articles that aren't in English and already exist on another Wikipedia project (probably the fr wikipedia in this case). [1] comes up with a "page not found", so it's probably not there. So a good procedure is this:
- Place {{notenglish}} on the article.
- Follow the instructions in the notenglish tag to put the article here.
WP:PNT is watched by numerous editors with language skills and it'll either be translated or, if appropriate, tagged for speedy. Articles remaining untranslated for seven days will be deleted. See Wikipedia:Translation for details of translation facilities available on the en Wikipedia. Regards, Tonywalton | Talk 11:35, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
- You're welcome. It seems I keep having this conversation with different people :-) - see this for an expanded version. Tonywalton | Talk 11:41, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
- Sigh. We're both muppets. That article, along with Sokey Edorh are both copyvios (from http://togopages.net/blog/?page_id=2 and http://togopages.net/blog/index.php?s=edorh&searchbutton=Go%21] respectively. Deleted as copyvios. Cheers, Tonywalton | Talk 11:59, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
- "Muppet" comes from The Muppets. It's used in the UK to mean "somewhat stupid person" - maybe like "jerk" but without the insulting connotation. G'night Tonywalton | Talk 12:05, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
- he he if you dont mind me butting in, i think muppet is still quite insulting, but i guess its the way you say it.. Mujinga 04:10, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

hello, it seems a shame to me that the chunk article got deleted, altho it may well have deserved to have been deleted by not proving its notability under wikistandards. i dont know, because i didnt see it. anyhoo, i would like to create the article again, seeing as i can provide refs to prove the group's notability. i have contacted the admin who deleted it here and i will be interested to take it up after a week's wikibreak. i will leave the same message for Quackking. cheers, Mujinga 04:09, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- ok! do you still have a copy of the page somewhere? i also asked the admin who deleted it if i could see it. and was the article a stub? because if it was, under undeletion guidelines it can be simply begun again, whereas if if was a full article, going by the book, its better to apply to get it undeleted first, then clean it up.
- how do you know chunk btw? i was traded some zines with sara from portland following a carbusters conference in prague a few years back. they're a funny read.
- what ref.s did you use? here are the ref.s i found just now, which i think easily prove chunk's notability:
