Do you have a cite for this assertion: "Other anti-American foreign fighters, including members of the Red Brigade" on Iraqi resistance? If so, I suggest you add it. -- Cabalamat 20:23, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Hi, are you making up all this information you are posting? So far, I have found there is no element Alexium, Rescuers Down Under did not win an Academy Award, Gamil Zarik is not who you described, Armand Plourde did not have a party with cocaine and prostitutes...don't add made-up information, or you'll be blocked from editing. Thanks. Adam Bishop 21:44, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I cannot find any information backing up any of the things you're writing in any articles. This includes Frederick Douglass living in Syracuse and being on their city council. Please back up edits with references and refrain from writing nonsense articles and falsifying information in existing ones. CryptoDerk 21:45, Aug 29, 2004 (UTC)

Having looked at User:AlHalawi's other edits, I conclude he is probably a troll. -- Cabalamat 22:32, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Yes, it is true. I am a shameful troll. I take my leave from wikipedia, impressed by the collective efforts of its collaborative editors. My day is brightened knowing that there are those who continue to fight for Truth and Light. - The fictional User:AlHalawi.

So is your user page made-up as well? I guess the Oxford stuff was a rather naive attempt to give you credibility. - pir 00:01, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Trolling

You must feel so proud of being a troll. User:Zoe|(talk) 19:07, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

"Proud"? Why? I'm happy I was able to present Wikipedia to the world as a more trustworthy source. I suppose, in that respect, it is "trolling," but better that than vandalism. And that trolling ended up benefitting the resource as a whole. Am I proud that I could help Wikipedia? Yes, a little. I think every contribution helps. Halavais 18:28, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
