[edit] Stubsensor

I must say. It's awfully nice to be working with you again. Been far too long. :) --Woohookitty(meow) 09:15, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, when I saw stubsensor on the list, I said "Triddle!". I'm not kidding. :) Little things make me happy. :-D But good to see it back. It looks like it's about the same % as always. About 1/3rd are charts and such. Everything else is way too long for the tag. --Woohookitty(meow) 02:02, 21 June 2006 (UTC)


Hello, Triddle! I have seen that things are "heating up" (for lack of a better term?) for the stubsenor... I just wanted to see if you're aware of any mistakes I've made, or if I've ticked anyone off. Thanks for your help, and your sincere "welcome to wikipedia!". Sonrisasgrandes 13:39, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

  •  :-0 I checked to see what I could do, and found nothing that wasn't already complete! Am I missing something? Sonrisasgrandes 13:49, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


I helped a bit on Stubsensor before I went on vacation, and everything was done when I came back! Any chance of some new lists coming soon? Thanks for your great project. cøøkiə Ξ (talk) 23:56, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi and thanks for the support. I'm working on making stubsensor even more accurate right now; when I get it working again (I had to get destructive on it to become ultimately constructive) I'll put the new cleanup project back at the cleanup projects template. If its not so far in the future that I forget, I'll even leave you a note so you know when the new list is ready. Take it easy! Triddle 00:07, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't agree that Syrian Jews should be de-stubbed. There are still some headings not filled in, while several other headings (e.g. Arrival of Spanish Jews, and Syrian Jews in Israel) have only snippets of information and are still waiting for the basic facts. --Sir Myles na Gopaleen (the da) 10:19, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for the Stubsensor award it is much appreciated. Ksbrown 21:11, 25 September 2006 (UTC)


  • I like the Stub Sensor project and it is well organized so it ages well. I would hope some other projects adopt a similar format. Keep up the good work :) Jeepday 14:02, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Currently there are 6 sections left (about 120 pages) on Wikipedia:Computer help desk/cleanup/stubsensor/20060810. They all have been signed up for. Are you ready to run a new query? Jeepday 17:22, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Just here to see when the next stubsensor project might come up. I certainly kept me busy for a while! Canadianshoper 00:25, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

Hello Triddle I'm Aeon of the Wikipedia Mediation Cabal. Jake as requested Mediation in an issue with images on Beard. Here is the Mediation Cabal File on the matter. Mediation Cabal is an informal orginization so there is nothing to lose. Please reply to this as whether you accept or not. Aeon Insane Ward 00:46, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. I take it your accepting the Medation then? Aeon Insane Ward 01:47, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
Roger that I will set up a small page in my user space for the mediation. I will get back to you with the page. Aeon Insane Ward 01:53, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

User:Aeon1006/medcab/Beard Image Mediation If you could go there and make your opening statement so we can get the ball rolling. Thanks for being willing to talk this out. Aeon Insane Ward 02:22, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Something to consider

Hello, Triddle. I noticed that you have accepted mediation by Aeon1006 and I just wanted to let you know that another user and I have interacted with him in the past, while he was an Advocate, and he did his client a huge disservice. Instead of trusting and representing his client, Aeon1006 actually took sides immediately and was clearly partisan against the party he had promised to represent! The allegations are attached. He recently resigned from the AMA, and agreed to become a mediator, for which your case is the very first that he's mediated. I just wanted to bring this to your attention, in case he decides to "take sides" again. UCRGrad 05:12, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Copy/pasted: I am concerned about the recent behavior of Aeon1006, a volunteer advocate of Wikipedia’s Association of Members’ Advocates (AMA).

It has come to my attention that Aeon1006 violated the trust of his client, Insert-Belltower, and acted in such a manner that was unbecoming of an advocate.

The facts of the matter are as follows:

On July 11, 2006, Aeon1006 agreed to be an advocate for Insert-Belltower, who was seeking help defending against hostile efforts of editors Amerique and WHS.

On July 12, 2006, Aeon1006 sought statements from Insert-Belltower (I-B), but strangely, also an opposing opinion’s from I-B’s direct opposition, Amerique and WHS. He did so without consulting with his client, I-B.

On July 12, 2006, Aeon1006 requested that ElKevbo bring his opinion into the discussion. ElKevbo was a party known to oppose I-B, and his testimony was in opposition to I-B’s cause.

On July 13, 2006, WHS (opposing side) complained to Aeon1006 that Insert-Belltower had made unauthorized changes to his user talk page. In response, Aeon1006 wrote “Thank you I will investigate that and notify Mackensen [admin].” Instead of advocating on behalf of his client, Aeon1006 attempted to bring charges against Insert-Belltower with the admins. In fact, he ratted out his client to this admin on his talk page.

On July 14, 2006, Aeon1006 attempted to required all editors to obey the “fairness of tone” policy in their TALK discussions. However, Aeon1006 erroneously applied WP:NPOV#Fairness_of_tone to TALK discussion, when this rule specifically applies to article content.

On July 15, 2006, Aeon1006 demanded, in a public discussion, that his own client apologize to individuals for sockpuppetry, even though I-B’s alleged sockpuppetry did not actually affec any of these particular individuals (occurred at a different time).

On July 15, 2006, Aeon1006 wrote that his client was “stubborn.”

On July 16, 2006, Aeon1006 began assisting I-B’s direct opposition, Amerique – volunteering to submit an RfC against I-B’s side of the disagreement. As an advocate, Aeon1006 had access to privileged and confidential information from I-B – Aeon1006 now violates that privileged role and has agreed to use his knowledge to support the party that originally opposed his client.

A quick read through each of Aeon1006’s statements on his desk reveals that NONE of his comments were in support of his client. About a third of them were in opposition to I-B, and another third were essentially praising I-B’s opposition. As you can see, even from day #1, (July 12), Aeon1006 failed to fulfill his duty as I-B’s advocate, despite his promise to do so. It is certainly possible that Aeon1006 did not agree with his client’s position. If that were the case, then the appropriate and responsible action, under his duty as AMA advocate, would be to let I-B know that he couldn’t represent him. Instead, Aeon1006 took actions that hurt his client’s position. Aeon1006 never gave I-B the benefit of the doubt, or discussed with him in private the best way to handle the case. A quick review of I-B’s talk page will reveal almost zero help from Aeon1006. The last straw, was when Aeon1006 took advantage of his role as confidant and privileged position as I-B’s advocate to file an RfC against I-B’s party on behalf of Amerique, I-B’s direct opposition.

All of the above can be confirmed by reading Aeon1006's talk page, where he supposedly acted as an advocate for I-B, but instead hindered him and supported his opposition instead. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Aeon1006/AMA

REGARDLESS of whether I-B was in the right or wrong (and I believe I-B has been a valuable editor), Aeon1006’s conduct as supposed-advocate was a breach of trust and highly unprofessional. In fact, Aeon1006 would be hard pressed to demonstrate that he offered any advocacy at all, especially in the context of all the harm he did in his role. Such behavior is not consistent with the core goals and values of the Association of Member’s Advocates. Aeon1006 should not have the opportunity to violate the trust of another editor again. As such, I hereby request that Aeon1006 be removed from the AMA.

  • Hey Triddle, just to give you a heads up, This user has a conduct RfC on him which will most likley go up to ArbCom. Several Editors have issues with him and two editors have posted on his talk page for him to cease Wikistalking. I'm very sorry he got you invloved in his dispute. Hopefuly this will not derail the Mediation that you are in now. But if you feel that I'm able to handle the mediation then I will understand. Aeon Insane Ward 00:06, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Jake. My purpose was not to "derail" the mediation you have in progress, as I have no idea what your dispute is about, and I am a strong believer in the mediation process when it is appropriate. I used to also have a firm belief in the principle of advocacy, right up until I witnessed Aeon1006 turn against the client he promised to help. I wouldn't expect you to do anything differently with respect to this mediation, but I think it's important that you are aware of Aeon1006's behavior as an supposed-advocate. If you feel that you didn't want to be alerted of this, please let me know and I will apologize. Personally, I would want to know if the supposedly-neutral person I had agreed to accept mediation from had done with Aeon1006 did. UCRGrad 01:03, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Greetings

Hey Triddle, I'm spending some time over at the psych wiki. Just wanted to say hi. It was good talking with you the other day. I hope things are going well for you! Sonrisasgrandes 16:52, 26 July 2006 (UTC) :)

[edit] Beard Picture

I have gone trough as you have requested and so far all it seems to be is a simple content disupte (Happens from time ot time), neither side has really broke Wikipedia Policy so it should be a simple matter. Hope this clears everything up. Aeon Insane Ward 01:43, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Aeon on Wikibreak.

Hello Triddle, since the mediation is on hold, I'm taking this time to take a short wikibreak. I will be back this weekend if you all wish to continue then. Thanks! Aeon Insane Ward 22:18, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Not a problem, and thanks. I was looking into the redirects, but I wasnt sure if that project was over or not. Are there similar sub-projects under the Project? SynergeticMaggot 02:33, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

On another note. I've finished off whats left of the stubs. So...whats next? Please respond on my talk when you get a chance. Thanks. SynergeticMaggot 18:35, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] StubSÈnsˆr

Tridds, old chap, Stubsensor's pretty useless at foreign languages, n'est pas? Admittedly, tricky blighters, these accented characters, but not beyond your inestiamable electrical powers. Add a few more kVA, that should do the trick. Why does Standard Liège end up as Standard LiËge, eh, eh? Why so many dodgy redlinks in the latest version. best wishes &c --Tagishsimon (talk)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Traxxas t-maxx.no body.triddle.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Traxxas t-maxx.no body.triddle.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 07:08, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Elonka

Thank you very much for your support in my RfA. Unfortunately consensus was not reached, and the nomination was not successful. However, I do appreciate your comments, am still in support of the Wikipedia project, and will continue to contribute without interruption. Thanks again! --Elonka 19:44, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New Photo Matching Service

Hi there,

I'm contacting you because you listed yourself at Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Photographers. You might be interested in a new wikiproject page that lists photographers and articles that need photos by location. The page is located at Wikipedia:Photo Matching Service or WP:PMS GabrielF 00:18, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hey Triddle

I assume you've forgotten long ago about Uncyclopedia, but for reasons I found funny, I have put up your self-made image for featuring, because too true, it's just funny. [1]--Signor 02:19, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Converting video

Follow the instructions I wrote here. Those work in most cases, except it tends to produce AV synch problems, so it's basically unusable for things that require good audio synchronization (like a speech). Raul654 04:57, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User User:MureninC

Kindly tell this user not to call pages I've worked hard on to be the 'worst page in the WIKI,' and then insert multiple factual errors, not in my text. I'm amazed he has contacted you about civility, because in fact he started by explicitly slandering my WIKI contributions! He was the initiator. None of his claimed flaws in my articles were shown upon debate to be flaws, but to be misunderstandings, derived from his lack of knowledge of the subject matter. I've had to spend a considerable amount of time correcting factual errors he has inserted all over the IT sections, which I could have better used for writing.

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.
