[edit] Reply
I've replied on my talk page. Thanks for the note. It is interesting to see the different ways in which people start their wiki-careers! If you want a list of your deleted edits, let me know. I think Help-pigs! with "????? Help???? what is this??? is this?" (from 15 December 2006) is a classic first attempt at seeing if this "anyone can edit" thing is really true. :-) Carcharoth (talk) 02:32, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Yardman
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Yardman, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://www.damagedgoods.co.uk/yardman/index.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 11:29, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Settlements
Hi thanks. Yes to put things in perspective this towship of Burma I am working on is one of 18 townships in Kachin State. There are 14 states/divisions of Burma. So you see how massive the missing real world content is. As for Africa, well don't even get me started. Potentially there are around 2.2 million settlements which could have decent articles alone but the problem is unevne access to knowledge of many of these places. I see it as an important step towards counteracting systematic bias and will continue to make district templates and start getting locations onto here ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 12:12, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
Bes thing you could do is google it at falling rain website where it has info on nearest settlements by nautical miles distance. This helps geographically and fill in an understanding of location. E.g Nearby towns and villages include. Unfortunately though because of political reasons the web content on Burma is extrmeely limited. I remain optimistic that some time in the future more info will become available in the developing parts of the world for the world to see and read! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 12:17, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
- Reviewers can find evidence at User talk:Dmcdevit#Sunholm? and Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive418#1qx_and_DUCK. Metros (talk) 20:18, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- Just to put my side of the story across, requesting unprotection of Family Guy was to allow the IPs to edit (weren't a lot of us IPs once??), and as for the mediawiki thing, well, it was just a suggestion. I am not a sockpuppet, some may thing I was solicited here as a meat puppet, but fair enough, that's your opinion. But in truth, my edits were dull, if nothing to see. I want to edit peacefully, and no-one wants a "wiki-drama". Ta, --1qx (talk) 20:21, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- Also note the love of templates that all these accounts have shared. Metros (talk) 20:23, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- It's a customised userbox, not a template. I am explicitly not a sockpuppet of anyone. I am trying to remain civil here. If I could walk away and wipe the slate clean, then I would, but please don't accuse me of being someone I'm not. As it is, me and my boyfriend have tag-teamed here, but certainly not under multiple accounts - we are not here for anything to break rules or that. I think I've made my point without making a WP:POINT. Ta, --1qx (talk) 20:27, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Little context in ViewSourceWith
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on ViewSourceWith, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because ViewSourceWith is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting ViewSourceWith, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
