Rather I don't tolerate vandalism. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a playground. --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 16:59, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AppliedIRC

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article AppliedIRC, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:AppliedIRC. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Cheers, Tewfik^Talk 16:51, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Scotzine spammer

Seems you noticed the same spammer as me (IP 81.157.55.64). It involved linking to www.scotzine.com and has been done before, from a different address. Is there a way to quickly find if the person has done this again? I only noticed near-simultaneous edits on a number of pages I watch. Fedgin 15:52, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

I just had a page popup in VandalProof that had the scotzine spam link. I rolled back and left the warning - I can't think of any real way of checking for that text rather than watching the Special:Contributions page of the user, and checking every edit they make. Not exactly pretty but worth it if the spamming continues. --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 15:55, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

N.B. It actually appears that every one of his edits (Special:Contributions/81.157.55.64) is the spam link. Perhaps time for an RfAIAV? --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 15:57, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

He's done it again Fedgin 08:09, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I think it's time to refer to RfAIAV and get him banned. I thought I already had - turns out I was thinking of another user that was spamming. --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 13:56, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blah blah blah

Kindly refrain from using my talk page as a sandbox. Chris 19:43, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Referenced edit was a test2 warning for nonsense to an article. Not sandbox material. --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 19:44, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia is a sandbox of sorts, so why not fill it with sandboxy talk? Chris 19:46, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Although you clearly did not appreciate reading my sandboxy talk on morality... Chris 19:48, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

-end communique- Chris 19:49, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Regarding previous message posted: I am the judge, being on active patrol right now. I deemed the content as nonsense to the article and gave an automated warning. As stated on my userpage: if I made a mistake please unrevert it and continue as before. I am quite civil to people who constructively point out mistakes - my civility drops when confronted like this.

New Message Posted: Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a sandbox. We have the sandbox for testing - but the rest is a factual database. Adding nonsense to articles is considered vandalism and will get you banned from editing. --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 19:51, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm not quite convinced that banning me would be good for Wikipedia. Then again, you are the authority on such matters.

Anyway, as you may or may not have noticed, I do not persistently add 'nonsense' again and again to the same page. I'll add it once, and if someone changes, deletes, or otherwise questions its legitimacy, I will resopnd accordingly. If its a very important topic to me (e.g. healthy eating) I may add nonsense to one article repeatedly, and if that gets me banned, well then I guess I'm already up s--t creek without a paddle.

Anyway, I'm sure I'm coming off as a right asshole, so I'll shut up. I do apologize for any perceived slight, however. Sorry. Chris 23:43, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Any sort of nonsense being added is worthless and detrimental to the quality of the site. I never said you persistently do it - itv was just an automated warning from inside VandalProof. --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 15:35, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

Thank you for participating in my RfA, which passed with a tally of 91/1/4. I can't express how much it means to me to become an administrator. I'll work even more and harder to become useful for the community. If you need a helping hand, don't hesitate to contact me. NCurse work 15:41, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] You are mistaken

I linked Enma to go straight to the Dragon Ball article. There are updates being made to that DBZ page, though, that's why its like that, dude. —comment added by Dragonball1986^(t/c)

Warning removed and apology given! Sorry about that! --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 17:55, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar for Skenmy

I award this Barnstar for Skenmy's hard work on trying to create a less-vandalistic (okay, that's not a word) atmosphere for all. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dragonscales (talk • contribs).

Thanks! Cut&Pasted to my User Page! --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 19:34, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notblocked 13:05, 11 October 2006 (UTC)Sorry

Sorry thought I typed engrish, not english.

You did type "engrish" - hence why I reverted it. --Skenmy^{(talk)|(news)} 17:50, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to VandalProof!

Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Skenmy! You have now been added to the list of authorized users, so if you haven't already, simply download and install VandalProof from our main page. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or any other moderator, or you can post a message on the discussion page.

[edit] Welcome to Esperanza!

Welcome, Skenmy, to Esperanza! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is Stressbusters, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Proposals.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Natalya by email or talk page. Consider introducing yourself at the Esperanza talk page! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!
