[edit] Your edit to Ancient Rome

Your recent edit to Ancient Rome was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior.

Yes, my mistake - I was reverting vandalism myself, but accidentally reverted to the wrong version. Oops... Chrisd87 17:56, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply! I'll see about summing that bit up.

Added: Going to just be re-arranging a couple bits. Though, I will re-add the "Exodus" bit as I feel it is a bit of a comedy relief, and true to it's statement.

Added: I have simply moved the "History" part of it up one section, so it is not a full wipe of the information. Please do not revert. UA 20:38, 22 May 2006 (UTC)


Chris, there has been some vandalism on the "Ancient Rome" entry. I really don't know how to revert back to an earlier entry, else I would take care of the reversion myself. It is under the "Government" section and reads "Initially, Rome was ruled by penguins with monkeys in cocktail skirts by it's side kings." --Joseph kominki 00:25, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Never mind, I learned how one reverts to an earlier, unvandalised revision. The vandal's revision-history stamp reads: "23:25, 1 June 2006 68.171.135.225" --Joseph kominki 00:36, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Cottage School--copy-edit

I took care of the layout problem, but I am unsure what to do know as I am not familier with the topic. (look at my comments on Talk:The Cottage School. Thanks, and drop me a message as to what else you think needs done:-)Eagle talk 01:27, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

You have recently reverted changes to the "Star Wars Galaxies" section. Please revert the sections that were changed and not deleted. I was merely correcting the information. I admit I was a bit hasty on the deleted parts, and that was wrong on my part. I am a bit of a novice on Wikipedia, so I apologise for not making a new page on your talk page.

I got your note... but I also found another bug in VandalProof. Will you give me approx. 30 minutes to figure out what the problem is. (VandalProof is still under development:-) Meanwhile, why don't you check out the required settings that you need to have set to run VP. thanks for your patianceEagle talk 17:48, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why did I receive 6 warnings on my user page about vandalism?

Hello Chris, I recently received several warnings on articles which I didn't even visit including the Darwin Awards and Can't Sleep, Clown will eat me, and Call of Duty 3. I was also given warnings on editing the The Harker School which I visited since I attend that institution. However, I have no recollection of editing it. If I could be given some clarification on what I did, if any, I would extremely grateful. Thank you for your time.

[edit] Download new version of vandal proof.

Note I will be gone all of next week, July 9 - 16. I can help you after of course :).

My suggestion is to look for the new version of vandal proof. WP:VPRF should have instructions on what to do. Sorry, for not being of too much help :) Eagle talk 22:17, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok, post your problem on the disscusion part of WP:VPRF! Also I can help you over the next 3 hours. (note please make a new section rather than edit an existing one. (unless it is on the bottem) I can find it easier :) Thanks!!! (then I don't lose your reply) Eagle talk 23:01, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lists

Hi Chris. Sorry about the tone. I was quite busy and entertained. I appreciate your contribution (re Cfd) and the way you dealt with. Cheers -- Szvest 20:31, 10 July 2006 (UTC) Wiki me up™

Not at all - pardon my original AFD - got a little over-enthusiastic, having been dealing with deletion candidates that were considerably less worthwhile. Regards, Chrisd87 20:53, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Illutia fun

Hi,

I had not looked at the article's history since it seemed to be new. Thus, I missed the removed AfD tag, sorry. Yours, Huon 08:28, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Uncontested deletion

I wondered if you were aware of WP:PROD for deletions that are uncontroversial but not a speedy deletion candidate?

[edit] NPWatcher approval

You've been approved to use NPWatcher. Please give me any feature requests or bugs. I'm also happy to help if you have any problems running the program, or any questions :). Before you run the program, please check the changelog on the application page to see if I've made a new release (or just add the main page (here) to your watchlist). Finally, enjoy! Martinp23 14:53, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

I don't think you have the use of NPWatcher down too well since you nominated Philip A. Beachy with a {{db-bio}} where the article clearly indicates the importance of the person. I suggest you remove the tag. --Walter Görlitz 22:35, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
I know that the above comments wasn't meant for me, but I've removed the tags. For A7 (bio), any assertation of notability means that the article passes the criterion, and can't be deleted. Even if an article said "King Bob is the ruler of a castle made of chesse. He is famous for eating 500000 furbies in ten seconds", it would pass A7 (though fail G1 (nonsense) obviously). It sounds silly, but it's the rules (see also WP:CSD) Martinp23 22:42, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
No problem - the rule can be ambiguous, and it's easy to get "battle-weary" and start friendly fire :). Don't worry about it Martinp23 22:53, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] User:Donnaleecootey

I'm not sure what the next step is. Do we contact an administrator if he keeps posting it? Chances are he'll come back with a new name. I guess if another article about Dr. Dot appears, he should be banned. IanUK 12:36, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Chris, don't worry about it. Given the user is now resorting to personal attacks and outright lying about the copyright violations it is clear that he is more interested in making trouble than being a positive contributor. I will block him if this behavior continues. Gwernol 12:38, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Happy birthday!

Close your eyes, blow the candles and wish hard!
