Quick links to RFCU and SSP pages, etc.

Short ways to supply conditional links

{{rfcu|Messenger2010}} → WP:RFCU page on "Messenger2010"

{{ssp|Messenger2010}} → WP:SSP page on "Messenger2010"

{{ssp|Messenger2010|list=y}} → WP:SSP page on "Messenger2010"^{confirmed socks}_{suspected socks}

{{rfarb|Messenger2010}} → There is no WP:RFARB page on "Messenger2010"

{{rfcuser|Messenger2010}} → There is no WP:RFC/USER page on "Messenger2010"

Add the parameter cond=n to any of these, and the link will simply not appear unless the page exists, i.e. no gray (or red) links:

{{rfcu|Messenger2010|cond=n}} → WP:RFCU page on "Messenger2010"

{{rfcuser|Messenger2010|cond=n}} →

{{usercheck|Messenger2010}}   will give you a group of links:

Messenger2010 (talk · contribs · count · logs · block log · lu · rfa · rfb · arb · rfc · lta · checkuser · socks ^confirmed_suspected)

Nice - thank you! Yankees76 22:20, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

RE: "Attacks Warning"

An admin is already involved against the other user, and the other user has been blocked for 48 hours. This issue has been discussed this with an admin, to which last I checked you were not.

This is your first - and last - request to refrain from contacting me. In the future, it is advisable to not get involved in situations that you don't understand. In addition, I'm sure flamebaiting is against Wikipedia's policies. Nice try though. If you want to get an AMA to communicate with me from now on, feel free to do so.

Have a good day. Snickerdo 22:03, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Let's get one thing straight. I don't need to understand the situation to see when a personal attack or incivility takes place against another editor - nor do I need your permission to give you a warning about it.

Being right/correct in a situation still does not entitle you to violate Wikipedia policies and guidelines, and you've not been granted any special immunity that allows you to go around calling other editors names - regardless of their stature here. You know, and I know, that this guy is has broken the 3RR and has a flawed argument, so why no be cool in the dispute? Again, please avoid attacking other editors when you're involved in one of your disputes. Please refer to WP:CIVIL or WP:NPA if you require further clarification.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Hi, I'd like to know why you reverted my changes?

Sli723 06:12, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Arnold wasn't credited in any movies as Arnie, Austrian Oak, Conan the Republican, Styrian Oak, or The Governator. He was as Arnold Strong, however. If you're still confused, let me know. Thanks. Yankees76 15:51, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I got the info from IMDb and I have reverted the changes already. But you're welcome to remove it, thanks! By the way, sorry for typing "had no reason to remove my changes" because I reverted it before I read the response!

Sli723 01:14, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

I've reverted them back. That section is to list names that Arnold has been credited with on film. He was credited as Arnold Strong for the movie Hercules in New York (1970). The list is not an informal list of nicknames - please review the template for actors/actresses. Thanks Yankees76 03:37, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, thanks! :)

Ian King

Can you take a look at the article on Ian King. Currently it seems that subject lack notability big time. Aditya Kabir 15:00, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

I know who he is. He's certainly notable enough for a bio.[1]Yankees76 17:22, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

No one is trying to improve the article Ian King in a real sense, not counting sources of dubious acceptability (i.e. citing amazon.com, a vendor of the subject's book, as an independent source to validate claims of notability). Rather people are quoting your keep position to validate their keep position. I am facing an allegation of downgrading the article on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ian King, since I took a delete position and edited the article to remove unsourced claims that had their {{fact}} tags removed a few edits earlier (while also liking it to other articles). Would you care to take a look at the debate and the article again? Aditya Kabir 18:38, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Not interested. I stated clearly why it should be kept. Yankees76 04:31, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

You really like editing my edits.

Go to the New Jersey Devils' website, and look at the roster, then check out how many points Cam Janssen had this year. Last time I checked it said 41 games, 1 point. Stop editing things just because you THINK they're wrong, when they're really right. ---burgz. 08:04, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Lose the uncivil tone. I see you've already been issued a final warning for making personal attacks - a block will come next if you continue this behaviour. And the last time I checked, Wikipedia doesn't keep daily stats of hockey players - which is why I removed it. It's already outdated info - he's played 43 games, not 41.

Arbitration against Nationalist

I have filed a Request for arbitration against Nationalist as a third person (since I'm barely involved in political issues this past month). Although you are not one of the involving parties, this is a general note about the ongoing situation with Nationalist, and you are free to comment there. Vic₂₂₆ 09:41, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
