[edit] Mission Early College High School Article

hey there, I'm user:vinarm and I just contributed an article on Mission Early College High School, can you please help me? Apparently, you made some changes, I suppose because I didn't make it correctly. Please show me what I did wrong, so I can learn.
Roberto Vina-Marrufo 06:34, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Oh okay, thanks a lot! I really need to figure this whole "talk" thing out by the way. Roberto Vina-Marrufo 22:58, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] It shouldn't have been changed

I changed the title to the correct title —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 124.187.144.88 (talk) 02:19, 21 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for correcting your booboo on the Pantera page. Do you think you can rm the warning error on my talk page? Thanks. 156.34.208.164 01:49, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

You're way ahead of me...thanks!. Have a nice day! 156.34.208.164 01:50, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikED

Hi.

I just thought that since you use Firefox, you might be interested in User:Cacycle/wikEd. It's a WYMIWYG editor for Firefox. It rocks.

[edit] Just a question...

Do you know anybody at Pittsburgh State? (Recent vandalism) I've issued them with a Test 4 warning... hope that'll make them stop. (I find the techniques that vandals user very funny).

[edit] Vandalproof

Now that 1.35 came out... and I no longer have the errors.. I LOVE IT!!! ThePurpleMonkey_{(talk•portal•contribs)} 01:19, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Two things

1. NOW WHO'S GETTING THE ERRORS ON VP (sticks tounge out) ((sorry... I just had to say that)
2. No, I'm not getting the error in VP
3. I added your name to the VP Whitelist.

ThePurpleMonkey_{(talk•portal•contribs)} 21:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

What do I do about this? WP:AIV, WP:AN/I.. what? Thanks! ThePurpleMonkey_{(talk•portal•contribs)} 01:01, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

(I am answering you here for obvious reasons) If it were me, I would do nothing (doesn't deserve a response really IMHO). The only other thing I might do, if you really feel you must respond, would be to respond in a highly polite and brief way saying something like, "Thank you for your message on my talk page. I don't mind feedback at all but kindly refrain from using profanity or rudeness of any kind on my talk page." Katalaveno^T_C 01:27, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! (Your talk page is so purple.. the UserTalkHeader template and all my signatures!!!! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ThePurpleMonkey (talk • contribs) 15:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] The Giver

Happened again here. Technically I reverted it twice, and I don't feel like being blocked. Wanna help me out?--Clyde (talk) 01:35, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Nevermind.--Clyde (talk) 01:51, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh thanks. I always get worried about 3RR, but it looks like the vandals were blocked anyway.--Clyde (talk) 23:18, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RFC/discussion of article sulla

Hello, Katalaveno. As a prominent contributor to sulla, you may want to be aware that a request for comments has been filed about it. The RFC can be found by the article's name in this list, and the actual discussion can be found on Talk:sulla, in case you wish to participate. Thank you for your contributions. -- Nick 15:19, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome message

Thanks for the welcome message! I had previously used Wikipedia to help with some research I was doing, and made a few unregistered edits. Decided to become a real editor and help out on some of the Scottish articles. User:Thunderwing

[edit] CSIS

Hey, Katalaveno,

I was wondering... for the CSIS thing... do you think it would be better to use Fedora Core 6 or Ubuntu Server/Ubuntu Server? The only differences are

1. I like Fedora more, but
2. Ubuntu Server already has a LAMP server bundle (Apache, MySQL and PHP) installed.

I wouldn't mind installing all components separately on the Fedora Core box, but I wouldn't mind your input.

(PS: Ubuntu Server has no GUI... and I'm not the best at text based *nix.)

Thanks!

[edit] Shotgun Approach?

You sent me a message accusing me of vandalizing the article "Electrical Engineering." While I commend your anti-vandalism efforts, I did not change the article. Please ensure that in the future, you pinpoint the alleged vandal, rather than merely their IP range. I will not tolerate repeated messages of this nature. Such a shotgun approach is unacceptable. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Moose156 (talk • contribs) 03:18, 30 March 2007 (UTC).

(Copy of response I posted on this user's talk page)

Re: Vandalism on Electrical Engineering

Hi! Thanks for your message on my talk page. As you can see from the history of your talk page, I have never warned Moose156 about any kind of vandalism or anything else. However, if you are referring to this edit link, it was indeed blatant vandalism coming from a user at IP 172.191.7.149. My guess is that this IP number is either shared by many users or is a dynamic IP used by an ISP. Obviously, the warning message was meant for whoever the vandal was; if you happen to use the IP address also, then you might have seen it--it should not be taken personally. Anonymous vandals are warned on the IP's talk page as a matter of policy at Wikipedia (see WP:VANDAL and WP:WARN). Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

[edit] Plagiarism in Queen's University Article

The entire history section of Queen's University has been plagiarized off of the school's website. What is wikipedias policy regarding this?
