[edit] Subpages
According to the this edit you created a subpage. Per the Wikipedia policy on Subpages, I reverted it back to the previous version. --Holderca1 15:10, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
- I wish you would have moved it to a better place... rather than just reverting. Nonetheless, I've made the appropriate change. -- BMIComp (talk, HOWS MY DRIVING) 17:42, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

You gave him the "LAST WARNING" message before and since then 3 warnings were gaven to him. Please block him/her for their actions. — Moe ε 17:21, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Help Please - redirects and capitalization
Please help: I've got redirect problems with article 'RuneScape cheats'. It got moved without discussion (although a discussion was underway on the talk page) so I moved it back but in trying to fix the redirects I seem to have made errors with capitalization. Thanks. I need the article which is currently under Runescape Cheats to move to RuneScape cheats and the linkages fixed... if you'll tell me how I'd be happy to learn and do it.

[edit] Redirects and capitalization redux
Thanks for your help. I ended up copy/pasting the article into the correct capitalization and redirecting once again in a different way. If there is a better way please let me know. Jonathan888 22:34, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] I figured it wasn't the right way
That's why I asked for help moving it... sorry man. If you'll teach me, I'll learn.Jonathan888 23:22, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] So, is there a page I can read?
Is there an article I can read abbout the proper way to move pages onto an existing page and proper wiki procedure and etiquette for such a move?Jonathan888 23:29, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
Sorry to bug you again, could you do to the Talk:RuneScape cheats page what you did to the RuneScape cheats page and move it and revert it?
[edit] I need to tell someone.
I'm a regular wikipedia user although i don't have an account here. I think this site is great and it really helps me with my college work. But I recently heard of these people that were talking about wikipedia that they were all programming a hack for it. So after a little while I found it was a spider to hunt down all the pages links and change them to shocks site links or something along those lines. I didn't know who to tell so I just thought I'd tell an administrator as they might know who to tell or what to do. Just giving an advanced warning so you might be able to do something to protect this wonderful resourse. Apparently they permenantly change their ip address using some thing (a bit beyond me). Something like that. I just didn't know what to do. I hope I didn't embaress myself here. Thanks for your time.
[edit] abusive user
user Seancdaug is deleting the valid external links i've posted to the Final Fantasy video game entry & threatening me with blocking my editing privileges. the two websites that i am including are more comprehensive than the 3 currently listed under external links, especially FF Shrine. one of the two websites is already referenced in the article itself, www.fforigins.com, for information on version differences.

[edit] Anonymous proxies
Quoting from the noticeboard:
- Amongst others, the following domains are hosted by 72.9.252.242: www.Anonproxy.info, www.Ipanonymize.com, www.Ipsecret.com.... obviously this is a proxy service. -- BMIComp (talk, HOWS MY DRIVING) 01:11, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
How did you find out these domains were hosted on that IP? I have a number of other IPs I'm almost sure are also anonymous proxies, and would like to know how to find the domains hosted in them to find the proof. --cesarb 03:22, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Administrator help
Ivan Gundulić article. Whether he should be concidered Serbian or not. This: [1] (in English) and these[2], which writes perfectly about his entire Serbian ancestry and this: [3] which states his life's works and Serbian commemoration. However, the newer version of Britannica (the upper-mentioned is older) claims that he is Croatian; although, it has been proven unreliable as it claims that Rudjer Boskovic was also a Croat, yet he was a Serb. What should we do? HolyRomanEmperor 18:19, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Newby
I would like some help as to how to make myself a user page (although I know a bit about WIKI editing - and a few templates - I by no means know how to make a user page from scratch)...I was browsing through the list of administrators and saw "Always willing to help!" next to your name and so I thought I would ask you.

[edit] I have a problem with Lucky 6.9 as known as deaf discriminator
Sir, I have a problem with Lucky 6.9 who blocked me from Adairsville, Georgia which is wrongly doing because I have never valaism the article called Adairsville, Georgia. See that my mother, grandmother, and aunts are natives of Adairsville, Georgia and I know Adairsville, Georgia, in fact, it is few miles away from me. Adairsville High School macot is tiger, my personal doctor is Adairsville Family Center on Frank Harris Hwy, and my aunt/uncle own kitchen counter business in Adairsville. i am very angry because none of the users who cause the trouble had no expert or knowledge of Adairsville, georgia more than me. I will appericate if you request Lucky 6.9 so called deaf discriminator. He was violated the United States laws - ADA act and Mutant Respect. I would take Lucky 6.9 to Adairsville, georgia courthouse if it is neccessary. By way they have no right to remove my picture which I took out of my own digital camera as right as people to see hwat Adairsville, Georgia looks like. I gave bad words to Lucky and others' Talk because they are ones are lack of coopertaion and respect. "If they are not mature and professional enough to do their jobs enough, they should be discplined, not them spoiled themselves." - Walmart store manager in October 2001. I was able to edit the article and restored the picture and short verison of history after the block was edited. Let me everything is fixed.

[edit] Please stop a Wikipedia admin to vandalize me
Hello. I saw that you are "always willing to help":), so I decided to ask for your help. My user name is Bitola, but I'm writing this anonymously because I’m blocked by the FreestyleFrappe Wikipedia administrator. What is the problem: recently I visited the Wikipedia article about the Macedonian sity of Kumanovo. I was surprised of the info placed there, it had only 3 paragraphs named: Economy, Violence and Narcotics. For your information, Kumanovo is a city in Macedonia with about 100 000 citizens and he suffered several terrorist attacks in the past, but in the most time he is a quiet, ordinary Macedonian town. I have a few friends living in Kumanovo and they are also really surprised what is Wikipedia tells about its native town. For me, his version of Kumanovo article is like describing the London without mentioning St. Paul cathedral, Westminster palace, Tower Bridge, Buckingham palace, but writing only about the recent terrorist attacks in the London underground. I tried to correct that and I added my info and I left Goldfrappe paragraphs: Violence and Narcotics (in order not to involve into problems because he is an administrator). But, on 8 December he reverted back to his version and blocked me again. As a reason he is repeating that I’m using copyrighted material, but it is interesting that his “Violence” article is completely taken by the Christopher Deliso article (freelance writer and Balkan correspondent for Antiwar.com) You can check this on the following address: http://www.antiwar.com/orig/deliso64.html. I’m not sure if he has copyright for this. Please stop FreestyleFrappe from blocking me all the time and keeping the “drug, violence and narcotics” article about Kumanovo. Thanks!

[edit] Random Block
Okay, I have been editing Wikkipedia articles for awhile now, and I absolutely adore this website. BUT today when I tried to make a correction, this guy named "Poporopo" who is apparently blocked permently picked me of all people to block, reporting something false that I did. And the reason that was given for my block was "He is a sockpuppet to Poporopo". I didn't think that was such a good sign. Anyway, I would appreciate it if you could find a way to unblock me. Thanks so much. My wikkipedia name thingy is Dwslassls.
[edit] heeeeeeeeeeeeelp!!!!!!!!!!!
This is my first time reportning, i ashamed to do this Dyslexic agnostic (talk • contribs • page moves • block user • block log) for atarters, ths stalking harassment-lover has emptied the Bat-embargo page, insulted me and my editions directly, i've tried to make peace repeatedly, explaining him that i feel ofended, vandalized my own page writting sturr i repeatedly told him not to, i got out of control and swear indirecty at him in that very space. lately he reverted my editions writting insulting summaries in the Batman, batman villains and superman articles. Please, at least make him stop or met me in the middle point or something.

[edit] pic request
Hi there, I really like your picture of the Chicago police car horizontal, and I was really hoping that you would have a higher resolution picture of the car (300 dpi or 8x10?). It is a fantastic image and it is perfect for our book. Please let me know. I do have an alternative image that we can use, but it is a little too cheesy, like an old cop TV program from the 80s. Thanks, hope to hear back from you soon. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Frippychick (talk • contribs) 21:45, 13 February 2007 (UTC).
