[edit] Move of Pirate Party

I'm reverting your move of Pirate Party, as the US version calls itself The Pirate Party of the United States. You should however know that the article has already been deleted and will most likely be deleted again if recreated. If, however the party should gain notability, I'd prefer to see a small notice on top of the Pirate Party article instead. -Obli (Talk)^? 19:39, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your VandalProof Application

Dear ST47,

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 at this time you do not meet the minimum requirement of 250 edits to mainspace articles (see under main here). 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. - Glen 03:00, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your userpage sucks

Just a lot of packed ugly userboxes, omg.

yours sucks more :) ST47 14:50, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage Vandalism

Ha, sorry for the confusion. I just edited my own page to see what my IP was. AWBricker 21:55, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

argh - sorry - see whatismyip.com (or something like that) next time :) ST47 21:56, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

haha, alright. Again, sorry for any confusion. AWBricker 21:58, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thank you for the revert on my userpage. DVD+ R/W 21:48, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit Summary

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thanks, — FireFox ^(talk) _{15:32, 15 August 2006}

hmm. most of what I do is reverts and warnings so I didn't think it was necessary but I will in future ST47 15:33, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to echo what FireFox said. It's actually really helpful (and generally good courtesy) if you provide a summary, even (or perhaps particularly) when reverting vandalism. Even a short summary like "rv vandalism" is adequate. -- Steel 22:56, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Vandalism

Hey man I have been getting numerous emails/warnings with regards to vandalism; I just want you to know that this is a SHARED IP address, so any vandalism that is being committed on this quaint little project of yours is not the work of me. My name is Derek Malife and I live in Canada. My email is dmalife_45@yahoo.com; feel to free to contact me, but please no more threats about being blocked. peace

gotcha I'll try to figure out what the wikigeeks do about that - sorry about the warns :) ST47 20:55, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] you issued me this warning

This is your last warning. Removing legitimate warnings from your talk page is considered to be disruption. You will be blocked from editing Wikipedia and your talk page will be protected from editing if you do it again.

I looked up disruption. I could find nothing about editing your own talk page being considered a disruption. How was I supposed to know you arent allowed to edit your own talk page? (on a shared ip no less).

Please explain this to me.

gee, it sure would help if I knew who you were!

removing warnings from your talk page is like throwing out a parking ticket - you do something bad and get warned/punished, you can't just ignore it. the IP in question had a history of vandalism so i just put a level4 there - now you know :) ST47 18:54, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes but once you resolve the parking ticket you throw it out.

I would like to know how editing my talk page constitutes a disruption.

Is there anything in writing that demonstrates this?

Wikipedia:Removing warnings ST47 19:03, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't think this warning is fair at all. I am going to dispute it.

This page is a proposed Wikipedia policy, guideline, or process. The proposal may still be in development, under discussion, or in the process of gathering consensus for adoption. References or links to this page should not describe it as "policy".

DOESNT PROPOSED MEAN THAT IT HASNT BEEN PUT INTO EFFECT YET?

are you kidding me?

im reporting you for this abuse of power

furthermore the most recent warning had occured in may.

I think that qualifies as "reasonable amount of time"

kay. i looked at the talk page for the policy and changed the warning to a wr0. remember you can archive your page if you so desire ST47 19:09, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A question about pop-ups

I was wondering if you could help me with pop ups ... I've followed the instructions but have been unable to get it to work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! 24.97.210.40 19:25, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

sure! pretty much just go to User:24.97.210.40/monobook.js and type {{subst:navpop}} there, save page and see if it works - if it doesn't, clear your browser cache ST47 19:28, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reverting

Hello ST47. Please do not use automated tools, such as popups, to revert good-faith edits like this one to Maurice Clarett. Such edits require an explanation, a descriptive edit summary if not a full talk or user talk post. Keep up the good work. ×Meegs 13:11, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

ok i will :)

[edit] discussion re: db-nonsense

Hi ST. I deleted your {{db-nonsense}} at the Fraenkel page. That template is not for deleting content, but for deleting the whole page, which I'm sure was not what you were aiming at. (I've blocked the IP obsessed with Fraenkel's groping for now.)

hey - actually, i did want to delete that talk page, as there was no other content on it? don't forget to WP:SYP :P ST47 13:59, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] note

Can you please stop deleting my edits on my userpage? Even if I'm not logged in at the time? It's getting really annoying. I make an edit, and it's deleted. Please prevent this from happening in the future, knowing my IP. DarknessLord 15:08, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

I disagree. that site has 13 users... ST47 20:04, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reversion with popups

You might want to check your reversion tool, as the edit summary says it reverted to my last revision of N (game) but you actually reverted to the version before that. I've fixed it all up. —Scott5114↗ 20:18, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank You For The Other Day

Thank you for the other day, I clicked on your userbox thing and added a few of my own to my name page, I hope you don't mind.

Also, I was curious, is there any government to this place? If there is, it needs some improvement and i'd like to help. Vice President In Charge Of Office Supplies 12:34, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

lol, that's okay, it's not like I made them. government, there's the WP:ArbCom that deals with conflicts between users, and there are sysops that can ban and delete and do cool stuff, and then theres Jimbo Wales who owns the wiki, but most anything is done by community consensus - see WP:RfA and WP:AfD to see what I mean and to help out, is there anything in particular you need a hirher-up to do? ST47 12:37, 19 August 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Your opinion

I saw you are on the anti-spam project. I wanted to ask you for a 2nd opinion, but after second thought I placed the request on the project talk page. Han-Kwang 00:26, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks so much!

I love the owl you put on my "My Talk" page, hee hee, it's so cool!--Owls are Cool 14:54, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] comment on article page

it wasn't comment! isn't that obvious, that it was supposed to be part of the article

geez, these wikipedia "pros" never get, what's intended (it wasn't the first time). ok, you're right about one thing: i'm not very good at binding new things to existing articles, so do it better, instead of random deletion!

you posted:

The shade of blue should be pantone 285C.

which is a comment, and is not something that belongs in the article namespace. if you post it in the talk namespace, then someone who knows what that means can fix it.ST47 13:10, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

no it's just that most often it's said, that the shade of blue has to be "pantone 285 c". first estonian flag law stated, that the color of estonian flag is the blue of sky and blue of cornflower. AND that IS relevant information. why should it be on the talk page, i wasn't correcting anything, i just picked the wrong wording. and you got it all wrong. "first shoot then ask"?

if you add something like the first verson, then I'm going te revert it, because, the way you worded it sounded like you were saying the image was incorrect. If you wanted to add a section, then just do that, and see WP:SIG ST47 13:43, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm very sorry for artificially creating an edit war, but that's because you added the text with "requires", but i was right in middle of writing different text. by the way, during research for exact colors i discovered, that there's a mistake in the flag law, so could you please just not touch the darned thing, it's now the best way it can be and right now, i'm sending an inquiry to the states newspaper, whether they have wrong picture added to the law or they have misquoted the law.

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for reverting the vandalism to my userpage, before I was even able to notice it. :) Carl.bunderson 21:20, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
