Your VandalProof Application

Dear Katalaveno,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that you don't yet have the minimum of 250 mainspace edits. We sometimes make exceptions for people who've been around for awhile or have been heavily involved in meta work (WP namespace), however unfortunately you don't fit either of those catgories. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.

Well the "correct" reply to you would be that your (frankly unusual) early use of other vandal-fighting tools skews your edit count so that you should need -more- edits to prove that you know your way around WP. However, you do seem to have a record of significant vandal-fighting effort so I'll make use of WP:AGF and grant your application. Good luck fighting vandals --frothT C 03:30, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to VandalProof!

Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Katalaveno! You have now been added to the list of authorized users, so if you haven't already, simply download and install VandalProof from our main page. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or any other moderator, or you can post a message on the discussion page. frothT C 03:30, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Vandal warnings

Thanks for your message. Yes, I think it is reasonable; after all, the system is designed to help bona fide editors, not vandals. Having said that, I don't know if there is a policy justification for that. --Guinnog 04:18, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Sorry

Sorry about the vandalism to beauty, it was a short joke to my g'friend and when I returned to return the page to exactly as it was it had already been removed. Thank you for your vigilance.

Edits

(Very, very, weak, slow applause)

Congrats. Is that what you want to hear?

You surpassed me. Well, all your brag "Ha Ha Ha Ha Haaaaaaaaaaaa! I've got more edits than you!!!", is very... personal attack-ish.

My Wikilove for this Wiki is deteriorating, as I see more and more, that as I get deeper into the community that is Wikipedia, the vandalism, corruption, and childs-play.

Thanks.

Edits (again)

Yay! All is well and I have returned (all thanks to you.)

What is a quick way to boost your mainspace edits so I can follow in your footsteps and get to be armed with vandalproof?

Thanks again,

Re: Terracotta Army vandalism

How would one go about ridding oneself of 12.217.127.116 etc and his vandalism on Terracotta Army? DUBJAY04 02:52, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Galician people

Hi Katalaveno Sorry about the vandalism to Galician people article, but I think that this article should be improved a lot, and also corrected , I am a galician and I dont agree with many things that have been written there without any reference or source , I´d like to correct those things for the improvement of the article. (I took that information from http://www.galiciantunes.com/ but I didnt know how to put the source). Thank you for your vigilance. Hugo22 0:08, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Gary Oldman

You know that IP you warned about the Gary Oldman article? Well it has vandalized the page again rather meticulously - can you please block the IP? Thanks. LuciferMorgan 03:46, 21 January 2007 (UTC)


Reader Rabbit

Yeah sorry about that. My brother took my account and started vandalising articles. It won't happen again.

Barnstar

I think you deserve it.

The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
I, Tyson Moore, award you, Katalaveno, with the RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar, for your constant RC and NP patrol, and your dedication to keeping Wikipedia clean. Tyson Moore 21:22, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
All I can say, is... "I think you deserve it."

Reply

The removal of warnings is currently a murky area, with some saying that doing so is disruptive to the community, while others say that constantly re-adding the warnings is both disruptive to the community and wastes server space. So I suggest to avoid using this as a rationale on WP:AIV. --210physicq (c) 03:40, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Happy Birthday!

Just a happy Birthday message to you, Katalaveno/Archive02, from Tyson Moore Have a great day! (I cannot say it's on behalf of the birthday commitee, as I am not a member... (I couldn't be bothered to create my own template.))

Thank you

I hope you don't mind. I just wanted to say thank you for catching the vandalism to the Langston Hughes article. Thank you so very much.TonyCrew 01:59, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Darwin

I'm taking it as a matter of honor that you "borrowed" my user box. Hopefully, you'll drop by the various Evolution/Creation/Intelligent Design articles and watch the fun!!!! Orangemarlin 16:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes if you want to help out with evolution and CREaTIoNism issues, there are lots of interesting things to help with.--Filll 18:27, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I might suggest:

Thanks for the Barnstar and . . .

Katalaveno, thank you so much for the barnstar. When I first got into patrolling the “Recent changes” page for vandalism, I saw other people using VandalProof and applied for it but was just below the number of edits they require for consideration. So, I have been doing all of my revising and warning and such without any program for help. Lately, I’ve been thinking about using something, mainly so my edit summaries are more detailed. But now I know that they are so many tools out there, and I am at a loss as to which one would be the best for me. Any ideas? Is VandalProof easy to learn and use?

Promiscuous Pandas
