[edit] removal of NEWSECTIONLINK

Jeremy, the keyword works here extremely fine for me and most users, so it should be a problem at your end. What browser are you using? Fetofs Hello! 12:20, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.3 on Windows XP. The problem also occurs on IE7B2. Also it occurs when I am not logged in. — Jeremy | Talk 00:40, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm...I'm also occasionally getting things like "This is a [[Help:Minor edit|minor edit]]" in the edit forms. — Jeremy | Talk 05:00, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Ah, figured out the problem. It's because I'm using the https://secure.wikimedia.org interface to Wikipedia. I'd been getting funny behaviour with this interface before, particularly on the Main Page and talk pages. Guess I should have checked to see if the NEWSECTIONLINK worked without the SSL interface before removing it. — Jeremy | Talk 06:46, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Google removal

Hello! What have you exactly tried to do with this edit? It seems that you deleted big part of the article. SyP 11:26, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

I added back the large chunk you (accidentally?) deleted. --mtz206 13:43, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
Ooops! Sorry! I selected the bit I wanted to change, pasted it into Notepad, ran a Search and Replace on it, went back to the article, pressed CTRL-A and CTRL-V. I must have forgot I wasn't section editing! — Jeremy | Talk 00:38, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anime and manga portal

While your intentions may have been good, your move has broken the Anime and manga portal. Because of this, I've requested at Wikipedia:Requested moves for the move to be reverted immediately. --TheFarix (Talk) 03:46, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

  • I fixed the portal now, revert is no longer necessary. — JeremyTalk 05:06, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My edits on Image:Microsoft_Word_2003.png

Hi,

I noticed that you posted this: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Davidone&redirect=no#Your_edits_on_Image:Microsoft_Word_2003.png

Thanks for telling me that! It was one month ago when I did that and I was experimenting with it and reverted it back to normal anyway. It's not as if I kept doing it! --David 14:39, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

No problem whatsoever :) --David 17:12, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My Flickr Gamma Template

Hi, you removed my flickr Gamma template in the article Flickr. Though I agree with you that Flickr is going to stay in Gamma, I also think that you should think of it like products such as Gmail. Gmail is probably going to always stay in Beta, and has a beta template. I'm going to restore the template, and hope that if you have any issues that you discuss it on the articles talk page, rather than just removing it. Thanks --Alexbrewer 06:54, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Acknowledged; I guess I'll leave it then. — JeremyTalk 07:50, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the welcome page, though I don't need one now, it's a nice gesture. I hope to keep working on wikipedia as I have for the months that I have been. Thanks for understanding my argument. --Alexbrewer 23:50, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

HAPPY FIRST EDIT DAY!

Wishing Jeremy.Visser a very Happy First Edit Day!

[edit] Blog

You asked How did you find my Wikibirthday post on my blog? Do you subscribe to my feed or something? It would explain the lone subscriber! - I got there from your user page and noticed the heading - I don't subscribe and hadn't read it before. I saw your recent edits to Berrima today :-). Regards--A Y Arktos\talk 02:45, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spammer blocked

I've blocked your spammer for you for a 24 hour period. Feel free to let me know if they return. -- Longhair 12:46, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Thankyou, sure will. — JeremyTalk 12:48, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Grammar

Hi Jeremy!
Thanks for that! I'll get onto it! --Fir0002 10:33, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] VMWare

Hey :) hope things are well with you. Thanks for the message about VMWare.... I did some looking around and it looks like the whole thing is more or less a copyvio. This page and this one, for example, contain the exact same bullet-point list as under the ESX Server section. Some other text looks like a lift from this brochure. The whole thing does read like pre-approved copy.

.... okay, so I wrote that paragraph, got a bit suspicious, and ran an ARIN WhoIs on the IP address that made those contribution. Guess who? I've reverted the whole contribution. There is some good and useful information about their latest set of products in there, which could serve as a basis for more WP-suitable expansion... I haven't used their products in a couple of years, so I'm definitely not the guy to do it. Perhaps you could give it some of your magic touch? -/- Warren 05:02, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Watch out for this vandal!

Hi. Vandal 89.100.225.141 vandalized my talk page and signed with your exact signature. I suggest that you closely monitor this IP. Best regards. Húsönd 00:00, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Ok, thanks for the heads up. Will watch out. — JeremyTalk 06:02, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for the tip, but I don't even know what a watchlist is =) - Janipewter 13:30, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New Coke

Could you explain on the talk page what, specifically, needs to be cleaned up IYO? Daniel Case 13:26, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Hmm, that wasn't the article I remember tagging, but the history seems to prove it. Never mind, I did leave a message on the talk page but it was a pretty good article. — JeremyTalk 01:47, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Hi Jeremy :-)
"rm comma from 6000. Completely unnecessary."
Ah well, I like my commas, but you are right (there's no fixed rule in the Wiki Style Guide for numbers). So I won't change it back. Nice to meet you. Roaming27 08:17, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

Jeremy, can you tell me if you know who's been vandalising the articles on this site? How long's this been going on for?

NatalieZ 02:24, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] thanks

hi. thanks for the links to the help and i am here to stay. =) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Falcon866 (talk • contribs) 13:12, November 2, 2006.

  • No problem. I hope to see more of you in the future. :) — JeremyTalk 03:53, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

I've given this user a warning for their usage of personal attacks. Should they reoffend please don't hesitate to let me know. -- Longhair\talk 21:01, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Minesweeper

Hi, you reverted my additions for minesweeper. You should know that Yandman and I came to an agreement (look on his talk page) about the content I had added, and I think what I added was good material. I'm not going to edit this again for fear of another revert. Please respond. SchuBomb 03:29, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for re-reverting, I was a little annoyed when it seemed everything I wrote got reverted, but so long as everyone's reasonable about it like you and Yandman (and especially since you're a fellow aussie :D), everything's great. By the way, I don't know how interested you are in minesweeper, but some of us aussie players are organising a Sydney meeting (including the legendary Dion Tiu!) for January. Let me know if you're interested. SchuBomb 08:43, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PS portal move

Next time when you move a portal, please remember to move ALL of its components, currently there are 3 red links on the page and I'm trying to fix it.. Effer 21:40, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Aw man, sorry. I also broke the Anime & Manga portal. I should remember to keep away from them. — JeremyTalk 00:16, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
