See Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Archive 64#Manual of style bitrot which is a related issue, and is in some degree due to a lack of people closely watching a page. —Centrx→talk • 04:02, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

It would be nice if someone created a subpage of Wikipedia:WikiProject on open proxies to show others how to check for proxies manually (besides web-based CGI proxies, which anyone with average Joe computer smarts can check). I would like to check them, but I do not know how to scan them manually. [1]
If the sourcing of an article is not presently sufficient for notability, the topic may nevertheless be notable. The depth and authority of present sources, and such considerations as in the guidelines at the right, serve as a useful indicator

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

[edit] CSD CP
These copyright violations may be deleted by any administrator under the WP:Copyright problems process (see also Wikipedia:Copyright problems/Advice for admins), and so qualify for deletion as housekeeping. I will try to make this more clear in my tagging. (The criteria under A8 are all for ensuring that a page is not hastily deleted when there is possibility that it is not an infringement or that the page history may be redeemed. The 7-day period and process at WP:CP is for ensuring this is not the case. In particular, A8 requires that it be tagged within 48 hours so that the page on Wikipedia is not mis-identified as a copyright violation being found on a mirror of Wikipedia, when in fact the mirror copied it from Wikipedia.) —Centrx→talk • 00:56, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Random funny things
The "Done and Been there person" is a word found on the words of detest section in American Society.
A person who thinks there the PRO of everything, usually calls people noobs. "Hey, dude I hacked into the Pentagon!", Yeah? So? I don't really care, I've done that >.>.
I don't give an American flag!
That wasn't a test I made, that was meant to vandalize the article. Why did you say it was a test?
For 18 miles, uphill, both ways, in the snow!

- Also, it has a functionality that basically lets you stalk the discussions of everything you've already commented in. -Cyde
- I've noticed you do this well enough without WikiVoter, Cyde. Its facetious and irrelevant to bring it up now. SynergeticMaggot 21:13, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

On a Turing-complete template scripting language resulting in Wikipedia becoming sentient:
<centrx> I just saw a great use of #switch
<centrx> I think it justifies the risk of creating a sentient WikiMurderer
<centrx> think if Wikipedia got out into the real world
<centrx> non-notable people would start disappearing
<centrx> Wikipedia would delete everyone

Anyone know why this page was deleted?
- Yes. Somebody created a policy (Wikipedia:Notability (pornographic actors)) and somebody followed it. --Easyas12c 20:19, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] ArbCom decisions
- Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Sortan
- Users who focus in a disruptive way on an issue or subject may be banned from editing with respect to that issue or subject.
- Wikipedia does not mandate styles in many different areas; these include (but are not limited to) American vs. British spelling, date formats, and citation style. Where Wikipedia does not mandate a specific style, editors should not attempt to convert Wikipedia to their own preferred style, nor should they edit articles for the sole purpose of converting them to their preferred style, or removing examples of, or references to, styles which they dislike.
[edit] Bad AIV reports
Do not post IPs that have not recently vandalized. Do not say that they didn't stop after a final warning when they actually did. IPs are often dynamically assigned, or by people who are just passing through briefly. There is no point in blocking an IP that hasn't edited in three hours when it is likely that the block will either be useless, because the IP wasn't going to do any more vandalism anyway, or that the block will prevent a totally different person who never vandalized from using Wikipedia. —Centrx→talk • 21:10, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
