[edit] Test templates

Hi. Thanks for your work on RC patrol and hunting vandals. You might want to avoid starting off by sending {{test4}}-templates, even when what they're doing is clear vandalism. In most cases the {{test}}-template will do, and the {{test2}}-template can be used as the first warning for a particularily nasty vandal. Starting off with a {{test3}}-template is only for exceptional circumstances. Yeah, it can be exhausting. The administrators at the Norwegian Wikipedia for example, just block without giving any warnings! Sjakkalle (Check!) 07:35, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Blanked Microsoft article

Hi Csaribay. It seems you accidentally blanked the Microsoft article with this edit, which you titled "rvv, section blanking". I assume you meant to revert this edit. I just point it out here so you can know to avoid such doing so in future vandalism watches. Cheers! The Rod (☎ Smith) 19:40, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Yep, was reverting some vandalism and looks like I accidentially caught the wrong copy. By the time I noticed it, had been fixed. *Phew* and oops. - Chris Saribay 19:43, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] IP Block, 24.97.51.118

Hi Csaribay you left a message on my talk page about the blocking of User:24.97.51.118. That IP is currently blocked by Hall Monitor, so I left a message there (as you can see on my talk page, Hall Monitor is investigating). You can check the status of blocks in the block log, for example: [1]. Oh yes, remember to sign your posts on talk pages with ~~~~ (although I must admit I forget sometimes too:-). Have a nice day! --Commander Keane 20:18, 22 March 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Cheverus High School and IP edits

Please feel free to have your teacher contact me directly as I would like to speak with her personally regarding the recent vandalism problems we've been experiencing. Best regards, Hall Monitor 20:18, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Emailed you earlier today with email logs and the teachers address. I should say that this is not my teacher, just the one found during my investigation. Chris Saribay 01:22, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:SharedIPEDU

I've been thinking that maybe such a template would be warranted. Thanks for making it. Besides stating that the IP is used by a school, it's not really any different from the {{sharedip}} template. So I wonder what your reasoning for it is, and whether there was discussion about it somewhere that I missed.

I don't know about your watchlist, but mine (well over 1K articles) shows up as almost (guessing) 90% vandalisms or reverts of vandalism. Another guestimate of mine is that 80% of the vandalism comes from school addresses – at least during the day.

BTW, if you make a habit of reverting vandalism, you might want to look at this tool that I wrote to make it easier to leave warning messages on user talk pages.

--Kbh3rdtalk 19:19, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Was just being bold, I figured I create the template. I haven't substantially changed it from the SharedIP template, but I think that noting that certain IP's belong to schools could help admins in taking a course of action (e.g.: contacting the school) in addition to a block. Hopefully you'll find some use for it.
Also, your tool looks great, and I'm currently using it. Many thanks! Chris Saribay 19:43, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Changes to vandal warning toolbox

I hope you're finding the warning toolbox useful. I've made a few minor changes to it that you might want to be aware of. --Kbh3rdtalk 21:03, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kent-Meridian High School

Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kent-Meridian High School, I just thought you'd like to know that the consensus for High School articles now appears to be swinging back in favor of deletion. So this may indicate the beginning of another campaign to remove most High School articles. Your opinion on the AfD article would be appreciated. It might be helpful if a notability standard for High Schools could be agreed upon. Thank you. — RJH (talk) 16:42, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Current mac project collaboration

The current WP:MAC collaboration is Apple II family. Please devote some time to improve this article to featured status. — Wackymacs 13:56, 12 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image:Iger2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Iger2.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 19:17, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Lahainaluna.svg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Lahainaluna.svg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
