[edit] Ferick

Radiokirk, I see that you've indef-blocked User:Ferick as a suspected sockpuppet of User:Nookdog. Having had a look at the Nookdog case, I don't think there's any connection with Ferick - his writing style is quite different (Ferick can spell, for a start) and he edits on a totally different range of pages. Ferick is an Albanian nationalist with a very specific agenda, as you can see from his edit history. I don't see any overlap with Nookdog's editing history. My guess is that they share a common IP address, perhaps an insecure proxy server. I recommend that you unblock Ferick, since it seems very unlikely that he's a sockpuppet of anybody. -- ChrisO 19:57, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ferick?

I have serious doubts that User:Ferick is a sock of User:Nookdog. Has a checkuser been done? If you check their contributions history, there are certain differences between the subjects they edit. I have had problems with Ferick before but I doubt he is a sockpuppet at all. Regards, E Asterion u talking to me? 19:59, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
OK, then. I just found this quite weird, as ChrisO also pointed out (ie. different edit style, spelling mistakes, etc). Thanks for getting back to me on this. E Asterion u talking to me? 20:15, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
How bizarre! Thanks. -- ChrisO 20:34, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
How do you know User:Nookdog isn't trolling. Incerdentaly please don't block non proxey IPs indefinately.Geni 23:56, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Just for the record, I received an email from Nookdog yesterday saying he is not Ferick. As it was sent from a gmail account the Originator's IP line isn't there. I understand Ferick has used {{unblock}} to question the block and that a self-requested checkuser has been used before to "clear" people. Is he entitled to the benefit of doubt in this sense? Sorry for the hassle but I feel I have to play devil's advocate here. Regards, E Asterion u talking to me? 07:40, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
RadioKirk, I think the evidence is convincing... nonetheless I'm still puzzled by the fact that Nookdog and Ferick (a) edited in completely different areas, with no overlap that I can see, and (b) the two have completely different styles of writing. The only thing that I can think of that might explain this would be one person creating multiple personas to edit on different topics, though that doesn't satisfactorily explain the totally different writing styles. -- ChrisO 18:00, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
You may indeed be right, ChrisO. I have nothing to say about Nookdog as he has gone too far indeed. I just found the link to Ferick kind of bizarre. Ferick mentioned in Talk:Kosovo he got autoblocked before. He also edited from IP 69.81.28.114 there (ISP: Mindspring). Not sure if that helps. Thanks, E Asterion u talking to me? 19:26, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

RadioKirk, I like to know why did you block me in wikipedia with no prove whatsoever? I never talked to you, don't know you & I have never crossed roads with you in Wiki and you block me because "I am a self admitted sock puppet". What evidence do you have for this sir? This is highly inflammatory accusation and I like an apology. You also said that I sent you an email? What on earth are you talking about? I have never send you an email- I have never crossed roads with you. Next time check your facts before you make these inflammatory accusation and block people. I have to go through all this hassle just because of your unprofessional behaviour. I am highly disappointed in wikipedia as a serious encyclopedia when people accuse you for something with no prove whatsoever. Are you a new administrator? I also see that the Nookdog user has referred to my account as his, but I have no clue why. I have never come across this user during the whole time here in wiki. This is strange, and I would like to know why he would do such a thing & how he came across my username. I do not know this user & I have no affiliation with this user whatsoever. This is very bizarre. Last thing: I connect to the Internet via wireless network and my external IP address is 64.233.173.81 (This is a none static address ). If need be I can provide the internal IP address as well. Please unblock me ASAP.Ferick

This is becoming really strange. Now I am getting two messages (because none static Ip's change): 1.

Your user name or IP address has been blocked from editing. You were blocked by RadioKirk for the following reason (see our blocking policy): Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Ferick". The reason given for Ferick's block is: "self-admitted sock of User:Nookdog and User:216.164.203.90".

Your IP address is 64.233.173.xx.

2. Your user name or IP address has been blocked from editing. You were blocked by Gwernol for the following reason (see our blocking policy): Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Nookdog". The reason given for Nookdog's block is: "Self-admitted vandal account".

Your IP address is 64.233.173.xx

Somebody needs to do something about this. Ferick

This is Nookdog, the vandal Nookdog. I feel really sorry User:Ferick and User:The Isiah these users are in NO WAY affiliated with Nookdog/216.164.203.90. I believe they were initially blocked because I logged into one of my blocked accounts while using Google Web Accelerator. Google Web Accelerator assigns a small set of proxy IPs to its users, and when I logged in I triggered an auto block on these IPs that Ferick, and The Isiah must also use. When I noticed that Ferick and The Isiah had complained to RadioKirk and Gwernol about their blocks, I trolled saying they were one of my sockpuppets. I now realize this was very unfair and I feel it is right if they are unblocked. My apologies to them and the administrators involved. Nookdog
BTW, block this IP, its proxy ;)

Further to the above, User:Ferick has now contacted the unblocking mailing list. His message concludes "Last thing: I connect to the Internet via wireless network and my external IP address is 64.233.173.81. If need be I can provide the internal IP address as well. Please unblock me ASAP." Could you please advise of the situation with this user and any suggested response. Capitalistroadster 04:55, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

I need somebody to do a thro out investigation of my username and clear my account. Its ridicules that I have been accuse of being a suck puppet of Nookdog when it’s obvious there is no connection between me and this other user. I have now been blocked for over a week, and no one seems to care. Is there a responsible administrator out there who can investigate this stupid allegation? Ferick

Apologies for the delay, but I actually have been investigating. Can you please send me an e-mail so that I may do some additional confirmation? Thank you.
Hi RadioKirk, I sincerely do not think he is a sockpuppet of Nookdog. Aside Nookdog's "confession" and the similarity of the email you received from Ferick, is there any other connection? I had a look at the archived checkuser and at AN/I and could not find anything directly linking Nookdog to Ferick. I understand that User:216.164.203.90 (presumably in Virginia) was a sockfarm but I am not sure how does this IP relate to User:Ferick (in Kansas City, Missouri, as far as my previous ARIN checks go). I appreciate your efforts already undertaken but sometimes mistakes are made. I am prepared to vouch for Ferick. I believe his word. Maybe he's not the most polite guy in the world and shouldn't accuse admins of abusing their powers and so on, but I don't think he's a sockpuppet or puppet master at all. Best regards, E Asterion u talking to me? 17:30, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks very much. E Asterion u talking to me? 17:42, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

I have sent you an email days ago and no response on you side. What kind of email do you want sir? Here is the email i sent you: From: Mailed-By: gmail.com To: radiokirk@fastmail.fm Date: Jul 21, 2006 2:43 PM Subject: Ferick

I have now been blocked again for a different reason. This is a serious issue that someone needs to take a look at. Please report this to people who can fix this serious and annoying problem. Please Please unblock me once and for all!

[edit] Blockied me

Why did you block me, I think it is at least fair that if your going to randomly do something mean to a person you tell them why first. I havent committed A SINGLE ACT OF VANADLISM ON WIKIPEDIA EVER! So I dont think its quite fair that you accuse me of being a vandal. The Isiah 21:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ABBA page External links

Hi RadioKirk,

I understand your concern about adding unrelated external links, but the ones that you had removed are in *perfect" compliance with Wikipedia guidelines. All of the links are impartial and ONLY provide extensive additional information about the band. Just have a brief look at those sites yourself!

Carl Magnus Palm's Website, for example, includes unique in-depth material about his work on numerous ABBA projects, including books, official CDs, DVDs etc. I believe the links I had added do belong to Wikipedia ABBA page.

Cordially,

[edit] Reversion

Hi. This is about your rollback on Heads of Government of Norway. Rollback should be used for obvious vandalism, generally not for good-faith edits.. since rollback allows no edit summary it might be confusing for the user who got his edit reverted. Punkmorten 20:45, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked or not?

Hi,

For some reason when I am logged in I am unable to edit pages but when not logged in I can. Has my profile been blocked for some reason? If so I have not been made aware of this or a reason as to why. Any previous disputes with one particular user (who shall remain nameless in this instance) have been resolved as far as I understand.

Can you look into this and let me know please? I have noticed a number of glaring inaccuracies on some pages but cannot do more than add comments to the discussion pages. Thanks ever so much.

There is a autoblock on my IP that is not concerning me. Can you get it lift? (Cause I think that you put it)

Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Rappy30V2". The reason given for Rappy30V2's block is: "vandal from 216.164.203.90". --Deenoe 20:02, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

re: "There is no block on your log, and you were able to edit my talk page while logged in. The pages you're trying to edit may be protected. RadioKirk (u|t|c) 16:10, 25 July 2006 (UTC)"

Hi,

Thanks for your quick response. If, however, the pages that I am trying to edit are protected as you suggest then why can I edit them when not logged into my account? As I said originally, I can edit discussion pages but not articles (hence I can edit this page).

Also, please note that Crestville is still attempting to interfere and antagonise (see above entry). I was hoping, perhaps naively, that he might keep to his part of the "truce" but once again he proves he is incapable of this. I won't bother to retaliate as I have better things to do than bother engaging with him any further but I would like you to take note of his consistent intrusions.

Thanks for your quick response!

[edit] re: Captain Jack Sparrow

I agree wholeheartedly that femalefirst is usually a reliable source. The content was removed by a user who most likely took issue with the content it presented and wished to exclude it from the article. I reverted the article to the older version with the info from femalefirst and called the removal, not the inclusion of this information "vandalism."

Thank you for your concern

MLT2712 13:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LL

As quoted from RadioKirk...

This is not a news site, it's an encyclopedia; the rewrite is not "more PR than NPOV", it presents both sides of the story with proper dispatch. Quite the contrary; any insistence on reverting to the negative-only, sneak-every-possible-accusation-into-the-text version suggests a betrayal of your agenda. What is your intention? RadioKirk (u|t|c) 14:25, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Let's examine this, shall we?

  1. discussion page -- check out how often, and how quickly, you jump on people for making edits to the LL article.
  2. content -- look at how often you remove content that puts LL in anything less than a glowing beacon of perfection
  3. frequency -- check out how often you revert people's edits
  4. POV -- notice how many users have noted the PR-esque tone of this article, and the frequent complaints that this article does nothing but put LL in a positive light.

I really don't care about Lindsay Lohan, or what kind of lifestyle she leads, at all. I found some pertinant information, and attempted to contribute it. The information I contributed was above-board and properly referenced. Compromise offers were attempted with regards to the diction used.

Radiokirk, on the other hand, has seemingly made it his mission to ensure that this article remains a bastion of purity for Ms. Lohan. I'm not the first person to make this observation, and doubtless I will be the last. I no longer see the point in continuing my attempts at offering a more balanced view of this topic... I refuse to become a zealot, because then I'm no better than you are! I can, however, sleep at night knowing two things... one, i tried my best, and two, I didn't become fanatical.

[edit] Re: Linsey Lohan revent of linking

Hi, I've been wondering what the wikipedia policy is on multiple linkings? The reason I ask is that there are many situations, like this one, where I have added a link that might already have been in place in a different part of the article, with the following motivation: I feel that if I am reading a section of an article, and it is the first time I come across a phrase (often after skipping other sections, like in this situation, I accessed the Lindsey Lohan article specifically to read the 'Media Spotlight' section, after reading all the news about the exhaustion case...) and it's not clearly apparent where the other link is, it's a good thing to link it. It saves people from having to search the article for other instances of the subject looking to be linked. Though I recognize that linking every instance of a word throughout the article is a bad thing. Where is the middle ground? What is the policy? I have no interest one way or the other, I'm just curious what the policy is. Thanks for cleaning up my mistake / clearing up my knowledge..! Jugander 22:51, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Followup: Yeah, I was a bit confused, and just thought I'd let it slip, you admins have a bit to do. Thanks though, that does answer my question. Jugander 20:11, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PBase galleries

{I've refactored this from the AN/I discussion and the two sections here /wangi 21:57, 2 August 2006 (UTC))

Hi! I see you're removing the link to Nikola Gruev's picture website from anywhere you see it. Actually, the separate galleries are perfectly relevant im the articles they illustrate. Gruev has also given us permission to use images from the galleries under GFDL and kindly asks to provide a link (I don't see anything wrong, since the galleries are very illustrative and useful).

Could you please make me more familiar with your concerns regarding that link? I already reverted on several pages, but I think it's better to discuss. Todor→Bozhinov 21:11, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, actually, Gruev's not adding links to his websites — editors are adding them because they're useful. The website satisfies #1 of Links normally to be avoided (we can't add all the pictures), and the gallery is just hosted at PBase, it has little to do with the site itself (#9).
I was careful not to bring the other links (the real spam) back, but I think this user's webstie should stay, it's a great resource. Todor→Bozhinov 21:40, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Erm, I'd wager that a lot of those have been added to articles by people other than the author/photographer. PBase is a photo community site with many many thousands of users, and many millions of photos hosted for those members. I generally don't go for gallery links on articles, but a large number of editors do think they're useful... So I don't think a cull of all pbase galleries is an anyway useful, especially based on one bad apple just spamming a link to their sub-site! (I'm http://www.pbase.com/wangi - but have never added any links :)) Thanks/wangi 21:07, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Well, it's not based on that apple, but on WP:EL#Links normally to be avoided and primarily #s 1 (prose), 4 (self-promotion) and 9 (networking sites). I was under the impression that WP:NOT a picturebook and that image hosts were essentially networking sites. Is that wrong? RadioKirk (u|t|c) 21:13, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Can you stop with the removals while I put together a reply - there's no rush here after all! ;) /wangi 21:24, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Already stopped—need to run out a while anyway. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 21:27, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Right, I agree with Todor that a number of these gallery links are very useful additions to articles, especially ones where no free images are available for use directly or where the quality of the gallery is very high — a unique resource.

No, PBase is not a networking site - it's all about the photos, and there're a lot of damn good one by a lot of really talented photographers (see the front page and click into the random galleries selected there). The important thing is that it's a site used by many thousands of people - one person spamming their link does not imply anything about the rest of the site.

A large number of those external links are actually on take pages - at least 5 or 6 are source links on images I have uploaded to Wikipedia. Thanks/wangi 21:57, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please, help me!

RadioKirk, you seem to be one of the more sympathetic and reasonable administrators on Wikipedia, and I need help. I need the user name 'Ericmaniloff' and everything associated with it, user page, talk page, edits, whatever, erradicated and erased from Wikipedia history for major privacy issues. Someone used my own name innapropiately, and after i gained control of the account, i had autoblocks placed on my ip address, which is why I am posting this from AOL. After you do that, will you please also delete this message?

Thank you.

[edit] Hey :)

Hi. My name is Adrienna nice userpage you got there. I am 17. I agree and totally like everything you like. --User:Bethicalyna

[edit] Your Signature

I'm sorry for bothering you with something like this, but i have a question: I am pretty new to wikipedia (as contributor, i mean). Now, i saw your signature, you know, the (u|t|c) stuff. Many people have signatures like that, in very different kinds. My question, is there a way to actually save that kind of signature as some kind of personal template, or do you have to copypaste it each time you do a comment? Thanks in advance. --Twsx 20:17, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brent Corrigan Article

Please, if you have nothing to add to the article, why delete? I see, incapable of actual conversation, and instead, just throwing authoritative articles at me. I have a better idea. Shove it :-)

Julien Deveraux 20:06, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

RadioKirk, I apologize, that was rude of me. You're right. I suppose however, that I have a unique situation. I am close to this story (I have worked with Cobra Video in the past and have no ill will towards either party) but have no way of citing my information. what would be the best thing to do, in your opinion? --Julien Deveraux 20:32, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sega Mega Drive/Sega Genesis

Hello again, I was wondering if you could move the page Sega Mega Drive/Sega Genesis to Sega Mega Drive as I can't do it. Says the page allready exist. If you look at the talk page under proposed move, you will see that there is consensus to move the article specifically because it is against policy rules. Again, thank you for your time.

[edit] Omar Amanat

Hello, thanks for your help in preventing the vandalism from barkleyparamus but he is popping up using different i.p. addresses. most recently 24.225.230.182 (which you blocked) and now he is using 68.81.46.69. I could use your help with that i.p address.

thanks Rumination 02:40, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sega Mega Drive

There was a lot of discussion on Talk:Sega Mega Drive before it was moved to its clunky hybrid name. You moved it back based on WP:RM request. There was a lot of heavy stuff involving the Google test and a lot of contentious warring over what name it should be at. That discussion appears to have been lost - is there any way to recover it? Hbdragon88 07:08, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

The Talk:Sega Genesis has a lot of discussion from circa 2003 and some from 2004. The Talk:Sega Mega Drive should also have such discussion on there within that timeframe because the conflict was long going on before the discussions in 2004 and 2005 at the hybrid Sega Mega Drive/Sega Genesis talk page. Hbdragon88 23:59, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Mmmm...no, the Sega Mega Drive had discussion regarding the use of the Google test and the such, which the Genesis talk page didn't have. But anyway, If I recall MediaWiki software correctly (I was a sysop at another wiki for a hsort period), you can't recover the old page when the history has been overriden.

Is there something wrong with reversions (or just yours)? Check out this contrib: [4]. alphaChimp laudare 18:29, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm not having the issue (I just tested), and I'm using Voice-of-All's combined version of popups and admin rollback tools. (I also know nothing about monobook type stuff.) If you'd like, feel free to copy my monobook. alphaChimp laudare 18:36, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
I'm not quite sure. I'm using IE right now. I get the initial popup (with the preview and the like), but I'm missing the links for reverting and all of the other things that appear in FF. Try doing a hard refresh (CTRL-F5). That's really the best I can suggest. alphaChimp laudare 01:53, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually, after taking a look at it, it appears that the owner of this IP address is a deeply religious Episcapallian and is very angry at Cardinal Newman for not emphasizing the importance of Pierre Martin Ngô Đình Thục.

[edit] Content dispute?

I posted the issue of DocFisherKing\'s edits to David Duke in the Wikipedia:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism page, but you removed it from the list, saying that it\'s a content dispute. However, this user is completely going against consensus by making these edits, and he does not seem to have much regard for Wikipedia guidelines. I ask that at least, an investigation be done. I would appreciate your help in this matter.

My original message:

* DocFisherKing (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log) has repeatedly vandalized David Duke by reverting the page to a much older and inferior version, often with an accompanying false accusation of vandalism on my part (see [5], [6], and [7]). He does not justify these edits on the talk page, and has repeatedly violated the work of a number of editors along with myself.

--Ryodox 02:06, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Regarding your comment on my talk page, calling this a content dispute gives DocFisherKing too much validity. His destructive edits have been reverted at any rate. I do, however, have reason to suspect that he\'s harrassing me on another website.[8]

[edit] Content Dispute

In regards to Hipcrime (Usenet). Please read WP:VAND under types of vandalism. Continued placing of the NPOV tag (the reason this tag was placed was because of my and an admins removal of graffitti from the article) is not valid under WP:NPOV. As such it falls under vandalism and improper placing of dispute tags. Its a content dispute only in that its pushed by an anon editor using multiple proxies and sockpuppets to further compromising the article.--Crossmr 03:25, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

and if this is not what that particular section of WP:VAND please advise me as to what this is intended to cover as I must be misinterpreting it.--Crossmr 03:38, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
WP:VAND indicates that improper use of dispute tags isn't simple vandalism and that means it can't be dealt with by the vandalism noticeboard? I wasn't aware that was only for simple vandalism. What does the vandalism of my user page by the same user fall under? [10].--Crossmr 03:50, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
I wouldn't if it was out of the blue, but when its part and parcel of the longterm issue that we've had with that article, I tend to view it a bit different. Its quite evident that all of those IPs are one in the same, and there have been a couple of uncivil edit summaries and one I'd call a personal attack. Couple that with improper use of the dispute tag, the continued pushing of material onto the article under the guise of concensus built on the back of puppets, you'll forgive me if I don't view it light heartedly.--Crossmr 04:01, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: User:The Mystery Man

What does bad data have to do with WP:NPOV and WP:COPY? He listed George Washington's favorite dish as something created 100 years after his death. He's got Thomas Jefferson as the creator of the Orange Baked Alaska. Those aren't NPOV issues; they're vandalism. And about how many notices should we leave regarding copyrighted images before his uploading is considered disruptive? I've counted 13 on his talk page at present. That represents 13 different links to the image use policy and image copyright tags. All this was visible on this user's talk page before I reported him as a vandal. Ya don't have to block him, but at least consider leaving him a polite note asking him not cause so many problems. Rklawton 04:54, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

He made a lot of trivial edits following my post, and that's what you saw. The examples provided on his talk page were current at the time I posted his account as a vandal. The editor who asked for examples must not have checked his talk page, or he/she would have seen two.[11][12]

Note also that User:LilMane redirect's to Juicy's page. I don't know if this is the same person or a second case. LilMane came to my attention when he/she removed an AfD take from an article that had already been speedied once. Rklawton 18:42, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:AIV

Just a comment-- I posted a vandalism report this afternoon, and your response was as follows:

Puerility has stopped for the moment, leaving up to monitor. RadioKirk (u|t|c) 18:21, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Now, I know, it was a zoo and all. But what bothers me, when this sort of thing happens, is that the user's talk page is left with two "The next time you vandalize, you're dead meat" messages. Now, when the next editor finds this guy vandalizing again tomorrow, or even this evening, what message does he leave? Please stop? Another "Last warning"?

These "last warnings" followed by more vandalism followed by nothing at all make me slightly crazy, and make me feel like it's not really worth my time to post to AIV.

Anyway, I'm sorry to vent at you... I think it's a systemic problem, and I'm not sure there's a definitive answer, though I do think that the bias I see towards "wait and see" is misguided. Just a thought... -- Mwanner | Talk 19:17, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

You wrote: "blocks are preventative, not punitive." I do know that. But that doesn't address the fact that we're telling people "This is your Last Warning. The next time you vandalize..." But we don't really mean it. So why should they think we mean it the next time we say it? I dunno, maybe I'm coming down to saying that blocks should be punitive. Anyway, thanks for listening. And do think about the problem of consecutive "Last" warnings. Cheers! -- Mwanner | Talk 19:27, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pirates of the Caribbean

Hey RadioKirk,

I recently received a message from you regarding adding "commercial" links to wikipedia. I am trying to add a link for DEAD MAN's Mail / www.deadmansmail.com a Disney interactive game to some pirates/ Piracy links.

While I understand being blocked from adding the link to general piracy sites, I wonder can I be permitted to add the link to all the wikipedia enteries for the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise/ Movie character pages?

This link is officially sanctioned by Disney, it is relates specifically to the movie content, and is a fun and useful tool for fans of the movie franchise.

I will stop posting on general piracy links, but can you please advise if posting on these pages is acceptable.

[edit] username policy

Hello,

I'm the webmaster of TradingDay.com. My username "TradingDay.com" has been blocked. According to the GNU-FDL, the License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work. As all my publications are made under the TradingDay.com name, I think that choosing another username would not be in line with the GNU-FDL. Currently, users have names such as "Jerryseinfeld", which also makes it difficult for reusers of the content to give authors credit for their work. While I understand your effort to fight spam, it seems that you do not put a lot of emphasis on the GNU-FDL. At least in my case, TradingDay.com is the correct username according to the GNU-FDL. It's not a company name, but a domain name, directly connected with my person.

Please advise.

Hi I noticed on the Male adult bio template you changed "photo" to "image". I'm not sure if you realized this but when you changed that all of the photos in the transcluded biographies do not show up. I'm not sure if there's been discussion on this, as in a group of people (or a wikiproject) have decided go around fixing the transcluded template to show image instead of photo, but I thought I would inquire before changing "image" back to "photo" especially since Female adult bio template still has "photo" instead of "image".

[edit] Re: Reversion to Lindsay Lohan

Okay, when I don't reply to you straight away, it's only because I forget to do so. I have an awful memory sometimes! :( Sorry about that. I suppose I've had so much experience merging incredibly short song articles into the album pages that I know almost all of them will be reverted sooner or later (I especially like this gem of an edit summary :)), so I don't see the point in persisting (except for completely non-notable album tracks - how is "X is a song by Y from the album Z" useful to anyone?). I know, I know; we shouldn't give into revert warriors and editors who refuse to discuss anything, but sometimes it all becomes too much. I suppose an alternative would be to expand the Speak (album) and A Little More Personal (Raw) articles so that they are large enough to have articles on the singles spun off from them, but the problem is I don't care for Lindsay's music (which is strange - Hilary and Ashlee are guilty pleasures of mine, but I've never seen the appeal with Lindsay).

In the meantime, if you're feeling lazy, you might like to do something with Over (Lindsay Lohan song) and First (Lindsay Lohan song), both of which are poorly formatted stubs. If you're feeling really lazy, you may want to quash I Live For The Day (improperly capitalised :() and If It's Alright - the former was a promo that received almost zero airplay, the latter isn't even confirmed for release as a single. And, if you're feeling really really lazy, you might want to put Drama Queen (That Girl) on your watchlist, in case somebody decides to create an article on this little-heard promo from the Confessions of a Drama Queen soundtrack.

Could I ask you to place a lock on this article so that anonymous editors can't edit it. Over the past weeks many editors have continued to add content that break WP:NOT, and I end up cleaning it up once a week, which is getting annoying. Thank you very much.

[edit] User:The Mystery Man

...continues to have little regard for policy or image licenses. I'm very curious about your opinion of the comments left on his talk page. I'm considering apply for an admin position, and I think it's important to get a good feel for how to handle cases like this. Something along the lines of "banned" for trying the patience of the community comes to mind, but I'm really open to suggestion. Rklawton 01:33, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:Ding Dong

Hey, just curious as to why Ding Dong was blocked. I checked his contribution log, but found nothing worthy of blocking. - JNighthawk 02:42, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Block leakage?

You did this at 02:33 and Fascisti (talk • contribs • page moves • block user • block log) appears at 02:36. I'm not 100% au fait with blocking mechanics, but (based upon the wild presumtion that this is the same guy) should this not have been an autoblocking situation? - brenneman {L} 02:43, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I've blocked this user, so if I'm smoking crack feel free to unblock without discussion. - brenneman {L} 02:45, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Well, that was a cock-up on my part. I confused User:Jlambert and User:Jaiwills. I am going to log off and soothe my wounded admin pride with curry.

[edit] Emma Watson

Stolen? Are you kidding me? Everything from our site is either wrote from scratch or sent by fans. The whole Emma community doesn't resolve around them. There are a whole lot other resources that you have to consider, and when do, not stolen. 69.197.160.64 03:32, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
