  1. Goff: Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Danny Lilithborne 21:54, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
  2. This message concerns your edit to Template:Humor, which you stated that other editors not revert "unless Pi." Although I can understand your argument that if(Pi == false) { do not revert }, unfortunately for(Pi == true) { revert }. Since Pi == 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884 == true, it is necessary for us to revert. Thanks for your interest in our project. // [admin] Pathoschild (talk/map) 21:36, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
  3. Stop adding commentary and your personal analysis of an article into Wikipedia articles. Doing so breaches Wikipedia's NPOV rules. Furthermore, reinserting the same commentary multiple times may cause you to violate the three-revert rule, which can lead to a block. --Jibran1 23:49, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Sorry for not being clear enough. The above message is in regards to the Qur'an article in which you changed the following line in the intr, "Muslims believe that the Qur'ān is the literal word of God in Arabic" to this: "Muslims foolishly believe that the Qur'ān is the literal word of God in Arabic" --Jibran1 02:53, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

[edit] small note about Mediation requests

When the page says that you should add templates like {{RFM}} to talk pages, it actually means that you should type (or paste) {{RFM}}. That way, what shows up on the talk page is a canned message about mediation. Not a big deal, because anyone who sees {{RFM}} will click on it and find out what it says.

Cheers, I followed the insturctions too literally, I think ;) 83.146.55.85 16:17, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sockpuppet concerns

Following recent edits, I have removed my suspicion that you are a sockpuppet of user:Hamish Ross. However, I think I should explain why I had such a suspicion. There are a number of reasons:

  • At [1], you "accepted" a decision that was clearly aimed at user:Hamish Ross.
  • You appeared at a time when user:Hamish Ross was creating multiple sockpuppets with various names. You shared an interest in the same pages and issues. It now seems from [2] that you are just an acquaintance of user:Hamish Ross, but, at the time, the coincidence seemed very strong.
  • Your third edit [3] seemed to defend the principle of being a sockpuppet of Hamish Ross.
  • Your fourth edit was a delete request, which brought [4] to mind.
  • Similarly, your fifth edit at [5] did not make you seem like a new editor.
  • Some your edits, such as [6] showed a poor commitment to NPOV
  • Some of your edits, such as [7] were abusive, as were user:Hamish Ross's.

As I seem to have called this wrong, I apologise. But I am not sure that you were not your own worst enemy at times. MikeHobday 00:31, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
