Greetings from the United Federation of Planets

I noticed you have been reverting vandalism efficently and impressively. Judging from the text below I can tell that your IP was also used to vandalise wikipedia. Hence it is imperative for us, co vandal fighters to identify eachother, perhaps the best way to do so is to get an account. Wikipedia:Why create an account? exlpains more reasons. Regardless, I recomend the usage of tools that will assist you in your efforts in reverting vandalism. irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-en-vandalism is one of the tools another one is WP:CDVF.

Additionaly I feel you would make a fine member of the Wikipedia:Counter Vandalism Unit.

Please keep up the great work. --Cool Cat Talk 01:26, 7 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I know all the "Vandalism warnings" were accedents on their or my part. For the duration of this pages existence it's been mine. 68.39.174.238 01:29, 7 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Old stuff

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. - RoyBoy 800 07:30, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

By vandalize, are you referring to Pinochet? I'm trying to work out the changes to that articel with Kissinger on that talk page. 68.39.174.238 07:34, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies, confused you with another anon (67.53.35.185). - RoyBoy 800 07:35, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I've been reverting some of his quackery on HIV and carpal tunnel syndrome, if that who I think it is... 68.39.174.238 07:42, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You mind reading the Pinochet page before keep changing it??, i made a better version of what the coup was about. Check the last version before yelling "vandalism"


You're really shocked that NYC has a flag?--Pharos 03:11, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The presumptuousness!!! "LOL"!! No, not really. Alot of stuff on this coast has flags, by virtue of being old. 68.39.174.238 03:14, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- ≈ jossi fresco ≈ 01:34, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No, I was attempting to revert that vandalism, hence the edit summary RVC, however someone else got there 1st and something happened... 68.39.174.238 01:36, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the mistake. I still couldn't figure out your edits to Template:Vandal though. -- Curps 00:21, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Check out how the Communism vandal's links look, specifically the page moves and block log links for usernames that have spaces in them. They don't work at all, and I was attempting to remedy that. Thanx 68.39.174.238 00:24, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, that's an old problem. Just use underscores instead of spaces. It ought to work with spaces too, but templates are a bit primitive. -- Curps 00:26, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Romanian grammar

Dear 68.39.174.238, the article on Romanian grammar is just now being edited, as was indicated by the {{editing}} label. Please have the courtesy to wait until I finish writing it, and afterwards feel free to check it out and modify it if you believe there is anything wrong. The section on the nouns that you reinserted is available as a separate article, Romanian nouns, on which I am now working. I am going to make a short version of this article and place it as a section in the main article, Romanian grammar, where it belongs. For any questions, write to me. --AdiJapan 06:56, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, you did that when Mr. Treason, or someone acting like him, was screwing around with many pages, and since pages dealing with minorites like to get vandalized alot, I suspected one of his cohorts or someone else was doing it. 68.39.174.238 07:04, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

WARN

FOr the record, that was done to test whether or not the bot in Cool Carts vandal channel was working. I deliberately picked an out of the way page so not too many people whould see it. 68.39.174.238 21:57, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop vandalizing my high school's wiki page. It makes His Noodliness teh sad.

Please stop adding nonsense and PoV to your high school's wiki page. It make Meh Noodliness teh annoyed.

account and reverting

Why before you revert argument "blanking" (copyrighted?) you get an account first? It's more easy talk about and we get a consensus. --Mateusc 01:46, 13 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't understand that. Which reversion are you talking about? I've done several. The only copyright violation I've flagged today was 4X computer games, which I think was a legitimate flag. 68.39.174.238 01:50, 13 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm...

That's a first for me...I've never seen an IP add a WoW tag before! I hope you're one of the good IPs around here :-) --HappyCamper 03:27, 16 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I regularly do that. Blocking them is part of it, but tagging them is also of importance. I can't do one so I do the other. 68.39.174.238 03:32, 16 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Ah I see. Well, your work is quite appreciated here. Why don't you get an account? :-) --HappyCamper 16:46, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Formatting guide

I merged all the warnings and registration requests together as per this formatting guide. Judging from the comments on the discussion page, you seem to make a number of good edits; feel free to revert the page to the previous version if you disagree with the changes. // Pathoschild 21:03, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted as some things were combined that didn't belong together, Eſq., &c., &c.... 68.39.174.238 21:39, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Warnings

When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template.
This was carried over from the revert

Good job!

Hi! I've noticed you were doing some good work here reverting vandalism. Why not spend 30 seconds and register under a username? You don't have to provide any personal information, and you'll receive recognition for your good work here. If you're unsure, check out Wikipedia:Why create an account?. In either case, keep up the good work! Owen× 04:40, 6 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

anon editing

Hey, thanks for all of the reverts you do. Although some would say get an account, as above, I don't have a problem with anonymous users, nor does Jimbo in my experience. One request though, would you mind creating a userpage, one that says something like "this user prefers to edit anonymously" so that it doesn't show up as a redlink in RC. If not, thats cool too. Thanks. «»Who?¿?meta 21:55, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

HeHe. The 2 times I've had a usrpage, one was by Treason and got deleted before I even saw it and the other was someone going == Heading == ===Sub-Heading=== ====Sub-sub-heading==== 68.39.174.238 21:57, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
hehe. That's pretty sad :) I'm sure if you created it, it wouldn't get deleted, since I'm assuming this is a static IP, there are several other users who have well known static IPs with userpages. Oh well, worth a shot. cheers. «»Who?¿?meta 21:59, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

As in making a sub-page like /archive to cleanup this page, or just deleting it, granted that's not archiving, but a record is still there. Just makes it easier for you and everyone to read the latest comments. You could always put the same note up top about not wanting to create an account, so you don't get bombarded with the same messages again. «»Who?¿?meta 22:14, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi I see that you reverty a lot of vandalism and I also see that some wikipedians want you to make a username. Anyway point being I think you should, (who knows me suggesting it might convince you to make one) there are plenty of benefits to making an account. I agree with Who though, if you want to remain anonymous thats just fine. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk. 22:11, 12 November 2005 (UTC) [reply]

About David Miller

Thank you for asking. I'm having a bit of trouble with my editing. I'm trying to correct a situation where whenever I look up for David Miller, the singer, I end up with David Miller the politician. Could you please make it so that whenever someone types David Miller, the first page shown is the singer, who is an international opera and pop star, and not a local politician in Canada?

Oh, hello, I just saw everything is fine now. Thanks for putiing that "...." thing for deletion.

Right now I'm redirecting some links of that politician that are leading towards the singer, so that there's no confussion.

I just received your message, thanks for the advice. I think it's much better if the David Miller page led directly to a disambiguation page.

Okay, I got it, I'll try what you suggest right now.Rosameliamartinez 05:39, 25 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again. Here's the situation. Now there's a page called David Miller and another one called David Miller (singer) with the same content, so wikipedia won't let me move the page called David Miller. What can I do so that David Miller doesn't refer to the singer or anyone else but goes directly to a disambiguation page?ByeRosameliamartinez 05:47, 25 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

ayayayay...I thought I'd understood. But look what I've done now...What a mess!!!!Rosameliamartinez 06:09, 25 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

At last, everything is all right, THANK YOU SO MUCH!Rosameliamartinez 06:29, 25 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I'll be careful to write relevant comments when editing. I'm amazed that you've put up with me today for so long (Computers are so not my thing...but if you ever want to know about Il Divo...JUST KIDDING lolololol). Why do you want to delete your own page? I think you should tell a bit more about yourself; at least your name. BTW Hola, mi nombre es Rosa :) See you around!

User page tags

You are certainly one IP in the know - for sure... :D

Next time in your edit summaries, write a Haiku? Something of the sort "RVC 'profanity'" is quite amusing to read (I may even BJAODN that edit!) --HappyCamper 02:24, 26 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hola

I just dropped by for a cup of coffee and to say hello. Sorry I hadn't talked to you earlier this week, I was a bit spent with the "vandalism" trouble I got myself into.

I couldn't help noticing a few of the posts above, you got into "vandalism" trouble yourself as a newbie too? lol

I've just read Wikipedia's concept of "vandalism" and I'm horrified on just how many wikipedians don't fully understand this concept correctly, labeling changes to articles they have written or newbie experimenting as vandalism regardless on the changes been made in good or ill faith.

Finally, I have a few question. First, why are so many people interested in you getting an account? Second, what's an account? Third, do I have an account? Fourth, what can I do to win one of those pretty stars or a heart I've seen in other people's pages (like yours) or what do I have to do to give any to anyone? Finally, if I ever guess your name correctly will you let me know? :)

Adiós, Rosa Rosameliamartinez 19:32, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hola de nuevo, surprisingly (for me at least) it seems question number three has already been answered by someone I've never spoken to in my talk...I guess I tend to forget "my talk" is public...Rosameliamartinez 21:00, 29 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hola ;D, I'm just happily passing by, see you later. Seen any interesting odd article lately? I just blanked and rewrote an article on a colombian music festival this morning, but that's nothing new to me. I wish I could find something really weird...Rosameliamartinez 02:05, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

hahahaha certainly not the "Alabama State Constitution" or the "Pennsylvania State Board of Censors"!!!!! You hit the right spot with the Unusual articles, gracias!Rosameliamartinez 02:39, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oh my, I've just remembered I know a great historical unusual article. Believe it or not, one of the poorest cities in Colombia declared war to Denmark ( Colombia didn't, just that city) in the 19th century (I don't know exactly the date) cause the daughter of the mayor or governor was supposed to marry a dane and the guy practically left her at the altar lol Now where do I get the complete info? I wish I'd paid more attention during that class...Rosameliamartinez 02:49, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hola ;D I can't remember exactly the name of the city, but I'm sure it's not a Spanish city like that other guy said since it was in "History of Colombia" class and I distinctly remember it was somewhere in the state of Boyacá (or was it the state of Boyacá the one that declared the war on Denmark?). Anyways, I haved googled too on this matter and haven't found anything, which isn't strange at all since there's not that much about Colombia on the internet. I'll try checking out some of my old history books. BTW I've been browsing the uncyclopedia, have you ever written anything there?Rosameliamartinez 18:56, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your reversion of vandal edits. However, can you please, please, please, with sugar on top, make a cute, little, tiny, sweet, tasty account? You can choose a silly name if anonynimiy is what you care for (Suggestion: User:Honey cookie) but you are going to make so much easier the job of poeple watching for vandals.

    When I say "recognized", I allude to the fact that a username entry would be easier for a human patroller to recognize as a contribution from a trustworthy editor, rather than incurring simultaneous scrutiny by six or seven patrollers. Also, while it would be debatable to say "most IP users are vandals" (because I suspect a large portion of the IP-user vandalism is caused by relatively few actual people), it not debatable to say "most vandalism does come from IP users." Thus, you should, really, take no offense to this. ~~~~ 07:10, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

thank you very much. if i had the power, i'd grant you the ability to see your user page. as it is, i can only give you this in return. may you display it proudly hidden:

pg-0 This anonymous user is not permitted to create pages in the Wikipedia.




Hmm. Is it true that the ban on anon creation only applies to en.wikipedia.org? Then again, isn't saying "in the English Wikipedia," in English, a redundancy? --216.237.179.238 23:00, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

My userpage

Thanks for the link on my user page. I agree that the state constitution is outdated and entirely too long, but I've reverted your edit. The state government is doomed, and there's nothing I can do about it. Last I heard, next year's gubernatorial candidates were Lucy Baxley, Don Siegelman, Bob Riley, and Roy Moore. Talk about the least of four evils! Anyway, are you from Alabama or do you just keep track of state politics? --TantalumTelluride 20:11, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You're right. Seigelman hasn't been convicted yet. Maybe I'll vote for him. As for Lucy, I'm just going to say that I've been forced to listen to her a few times and that I vehemently disagree with her platform. --TantalumTelluride 22:36, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I think I might just write in James D. Wales for governor. Jimbo meets the minimum requirement of being a state resident for seven years. --TantalumTelluride 02:07, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Calm down. Nlu took you for a vandal because of that crazy edit summary. Anyway, Jimbo was born and raised in the Heart of Dixie. He graduated from Auburn University and attended the University of Alabama before moving to Indiana. I'm not sure where he lives now; his article isn't clear. I suppose he might live in St. Petersburg, since that's where the Wikimedia Foundation's primary servers are located. --TantalumTelluride 02:38, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I've fixed the problem at Seal of Alabama. The existing article was a copy-vio, and it wasn't even accurate. It was about the Alabama Coat of Arms! Thanks for pointing that out. I'll work on the articles a little more when I get more time. Meanwhile, I thought I'd let you know that Alabama may not be as "depraved" as you think. At least we're not Mississippi! ;-) But seriously, Alabama is a lot more prosperous than Hollywood would have you think, even with its 2-million-word Constitution that grants Mobile County the authority to charge a mosquito tax. --TantalumTelluride 05:15, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that's just a local joke. The folks in Mississippi used to say "At least we're not Louisiana," but we all haven't been picking on Louisiana as much lately. --TantalumTelluride 06:11, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The archives

I'm not sure where else to reply to this IP's question. I just hope that whoever asked it gets this. Under "see also" there is a link to the institution housing Cruz's papers. They have a biography and a guide to the collection on-line. They have a procedure whereby researchers can obtain digital versions of images in their archives, provided that the intended use of said image is not for profit and falls under the "fair use" clause of copyright law. In some cases, the University holds the copyrights in some cases, the rights remain with the original artist, and in some cases the rights are unknown.--Rockero420 02:19, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Good Charlotte article

This is regarding the page Good Charlotte. I had edited a portion of the biography that said "Today, through non-stop touring and wide publicity, Good Charlotte has built a huge fanbase amoung kids, tweens, teens, and college students from all four corners of the globe." because listing "kids, tweens, teens, and college students," if very long winded, and it can be abridged by just stating "young people." Also, "from all corners of the globe" is a cliche phrase, and so I changed it. My edits were NOT vandalism, so DO NOT mark them as so. Thanks. Spuddy 17 21:07, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.

Currently, you are editing without a username. You can continue to do so as you are not required to log in to Wikipedia to read and write articles, however, logging in will result in a username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is 68.39.174.238). Logging in does not require any personal details. There are many other benefits for logging in to Wikipedia.

Please note these points:

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, ask me on my Talk page – I will answer your questions as far as I can! Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia.

Greetings

Yes, I have been following this guy since June of this year; I can demonstrate that but it will take a bit of research. He has hundreds of sockpuppets, and you have to track all their interlocking contributions; the pattern becomes clear when you see that they have identical IP ranges, identical interests, identical editing styles, and identical behavior. Even two kids in the same family, using the same computer, would show more differences than they do.

Regarding the user page: my personal philosophy is that unprotected userpages, especially those with "vandal counters", are troll magnets. No one else should have any reason to edit my user page; if they see something they want changed, they could ask me, and I'd probably change it. I like having a protected user page. Thanks for your help regarding that pest from NC. Best, Antandrus (talk) 03:46, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
