[edit] Something to add

In reference to the editing problem, I wanted to add that this person edits with three different IP#'s. The numbers are 63.3.69.133, 63.3.69.136, & 63.3.69.6. The first IP#, was the one that he was blocked from using. You can WHOIS each set of numbers to show that it comes from the same source. This is the link where the user was notified that he was blocked by Oscarthecat:

User_talk:63.3.69.133

I'm not crying over spilt milk, I'm just simply showing that I wasn't wrong on the blocking issue. Otherwise I admit my mistake. Sorry again about the misunderstanding. Take care and have a good week... --Candy156sweet 05:35, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi - I've had a look over the edits done by that user. Have you been able to enter into a dialog with them on the article's talk page, and highlighted which edits in particular you don't agree with, and why? Thanks, --Oscarthecat 18:08, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Richard Marx

Apologies for not adding the source, but what I have written is correct as stated by Richard himself, http://www.richardmarxonline.com/web/askrichard_aug01.htm I am sorry you felt the statement was POV, but I view it as a fact - the song IS a bitter, and rather vicious attack on another person. I am not making any judgement on whether that is right or wrong. Paul75 23:50, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. I again slightly edited the statement. I believe it is important to indicate in the article the fact that the song is a negative portrayal and not a positive one I have returned the statement to the "work with other artists" column because I believe this is the most natural place for it - the song is cleary based on the experience he had working with Madonna - I would love to know what happened between them!! I also replaced "pop icon" with "pop star", purely because I don't like the "icon" tag being attached to anyone, but feel free to change back if you disagree...Paul75 00:00, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Well, its really sad all this is ending. But my work on wikipedia could destroy me one day, so I have to leave.

If you want to meet up, or need some help (if i can help). Drop me an e-mail, I will reply asap. Especially for you.

See you, AVTN 21:44, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Changing my signature to an ip address

I'm trying to figure out why you changed my signature to an IP address over at User talk:(aeropagitica), during this edit. Aha! I think I know. I bet you were grabbing the [[user:|]] to use in the post below, pasted the IP address in place of my name and then copied it for that use, and forgot to undo the change to my name. Am I on the right track? Otherwise, please explain.--Fuhghettaboutit 04:13, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry about that; I was indeed trying to copy and paste the code. I'm still learning how to use code on here. Again I'm really sorry. Take care and have a lovely week...

--Candy156sweet 04:30, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Intent is everything. You you had no bad intent so there's nothing to forgive (and have a lovely week yourself:-) Feel free to stop by my talk page for any reason.--Fuhghettaboutit

[edit] Yea, thanks...

If you need any help give me a howl, do you need me to make you a userpage. I can make it look like mine. AVTN 06:57, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Layout

Hello. How are you? I have something cool in my sandbox I hope you like it. If you do I can put it in your userpage or you can copy it and place it on your page. Which ever you prefer. It took me a while to figure out the codes. I blend in the colors to add a little contrast to the page with different color pinks. (As you requested) Your talk page should be the same to make it even. I also did some changes on your userboxes which are now on the right side of the page. Anyways let me know how you like it. If you need a custom signature. I can help you with that also. Cheers mate :) King Lopez Contribs 09:50, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Y Done Ok so how does the new design look now? I also added an Archive Box to your talk page. Just in case you need to archive the page when it gets too long. Let me know if you need help with anything else. Ok? Cheers :) King Lopez Contribs 10:19, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

Wikipedia
Wikipedia

Ok well if you want to upload a picture of you. Here are the steps to do it.

I put an example image so you can get the idea.

1.You start by putting Image:
2.The picture above is Wiki.png
3.Next you put thumb left
4.150px is the size of the picture
5.And Wikipedia is the title
6.It should look like this [[Image:Wiki.png|thumb|left|150px|Wikipedia]]

You can upload your picture and I can put it on your userpage if you want to? King Lopez Contribs 07:55, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Design

Take a look at my sandbox I have created a better design for you. It is one of my best designs I have made. I hope you like it. If you do I can paste it on your page. Cheers:) King Lopez Contribs 08:47, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Let me know if you need help with anything else. Cheers mate:) King Lopez Contribs 02:44, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Question

Yes, it makes it easier to find vandals since you can filter out Bot edits, Logged In edits, and whitelist edits (e.g. the admins, and people you add to the list), then you concentrate on IP edits. If you want to use it then use this page to register: User:AmiDaniel/VP/Approval. Hope you also have a good week. ~~ Sintaku Talk 08:53, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Question About IP addresses

Okay, I know this sounds weird but somehow when I registered and logged into Wikipedia, I'm recieving all of these warnings about how I modified and changed so many topics when all I have changed in the past are the wkqi and wnic articles. All I have been doing is just using my computer and internet, I have no idea how this sockpuppet behavior works. You will notice a difference in the writer's voice that someone or several people are somehow using the same IP address. If this misuse or vandalism of my IP address continues, I decided not to bother using Wikipedia anymore. All I was adding was just relevant information about WKQI was hosting a controversial Britney Spears suicide bet, supported by the Detroit News [1] and Detroit Free Press [2], but the user: JPG-GR considers it a WP:SOAP argument yet the user deletes the entry completely when he could been seen as violating WP:CENSOR. It seems very awkward that the user wants to watch over radio stations, particularly Clear Channel stations...

Could you please report "JPG-GR"'s bizarre behavior to anybody in the Wikipedia administration? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wxyzdetroit313 (talk • contribs) 18:47, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

I find it hard to believe that you have just worked on the few topics that you are discussing here. Your IP#'s clearly come from one destination. Just because you have a dynamic IP and, most recently a username, does not eliminate the evidence that you are a sockpuppeteer. I have noticed the fact that you edit articles with one IP and go back with one of your others to edit the same article. Please give me a break here, I'm not stupid. I tried to work with you in good faith and it turns out that it didn't work. So now I'm just going to have to be frank and not so nice about this whole situation. The evidence speaks for itself, so let it drop or face the consequences of your actions here on Wikipedia. Your IP#'s are based in Michigan and surprise your username contains the city name Detroit. Get a life and stop vandalizing articles. --Candy156sweet 18:53, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I don't know who you are honestly referring to, but please permanently block my IP address from editing Wikipedia pages for the site's sake and mine. The last thing I need is to worry about someone using my IP address. I honestly don't have a clue what's happening and I plead with you to permanently block my IP address. I'm worried that someone is sockpuppetting my IP adress from what you have described to me. I'm sorry for our abrasive conversation. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wxyzdetroit313 (talk • contribs) 19:07, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Your IP#'s are obviously from one source. There is no denying what's happening here. That's the bottom line. Saying your sorry doesn't eliminate the evidence unless you have a way of disproving the fact that all of your edits are from the sockpuppet IP#'s mentioned. Good luck! --Candy156sweet 19:14, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm not saying that I'm sorry, I'm just saying I don't know what is going on! I mean I use an AOL connection and I'm not sure exactly how they operate their IPs but anyways, please permanently block my IP address from editing the Wikipedia pages. I really don't mind because the way how others are using my IP that's the least to worry about. I would really appreciate it if you could appeal to the Wikipedia adminstration/committee to permanently block my IP address from making any editing changes to the Wikipedia pages. Thank you Candy156sweet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wxyzdetroit313 (talk • contribs) 19:26, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Here is the sticky part of this situation. Those IP#'s mentioned in the sockpuppetry report do not stem from an AOL IP address. They come from a IP called UUNet Technologies, which is a subsidiary of Verizon. Now if that is the clear mistake, you could argue that point with Wikipedia. Otherwise, I can only say that it doesn't look good from the information that I have in front of me. I can't say that you can dispute that fact in my opinion. With this username you have no record of editing any of the topics represented in your first post on here. The only record of that lies within the sockpuppet IP addresses. I'm sorry, but I really don't believe that you are being honest. --Candy156sweet 21:29, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 3 Doors Down

Wikipedia is not news; therefore, trivial current events information does not belong in encyclopedia articles. See WP:IINFO #5, wherein it shows that "recent news" sections are not valid article material. MSJapan 04:27, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I didn't blank the page (which is what blanking is); I removed a section with clear reasoning, and I'll add here that I don't appreciate an inappropriate vandalism warning for it. I would suggest rather than looking at politicians, why not look at something within the subject matter (other band articles) and note the general lack of "recent news" sections; they tend to turn into exactly what the 3DD section is, which is current events and fancruft. Considering the overall history of the band, those items are offhand throwaways that don't really matter. MSJapan 04:36, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
As a note, if I'm not the arbiter what stays or goes, then neither are you, as we are both simply Wikipedia users. The whole pooint of the Wiki is that anyone can edit it, and is free to choose to do what they want within the limits of policy. MSJapan 04:38, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AIV socks

Thanks for the report and great research! I think I got them all, but let me know if there are more.

[edit] WP:FLAG

There is a guideline that explains all you need to know about flags: Flag images, especially flag icons in biographical infoboxes, should not be used to indicate birth or death places, as this may imply an incorrect citizenship or nationality. Aspect was right in removing those flagicons. -Yamanbaiia (talk) 23:27, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, Candy156sweet, for commenting on my user talk page. It reminds me that I need to specifically comment on why I am doing something. I will not make this mistake in the future. Thank you, Aspects (talk) 00:04, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

(This is in reference to the question you asked on my talk page. I responded both on my talk page and here.)
I removed the flagicons because they did signify the birthplace because they were being used in the Born or Origin field, therefore violating the WP:MOSFLAG#Not for use in locations of birth and death. In addition Chad Kroeger's page uses the Alberta flagicon without being directly relevant to the article, which would go against WP:MOSFLAG#Do not use subnational flags without direct relevance. Also both pages use the flagicons as decoration since they follow the links of the places they represent against WP:MOSFLAG#Help the reader rather than decorate. These are the reasons I removed the flagicons from Chad Kroeger and Richard Marx. Aspects (talk) 22:55, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suggestion

Please stop trying to act like an administrator. Checking your contributions, you haven't reported anyone for vandalism and I'm pretty sure you won't. Also, checking your contributions again, I see you tried to make a page that I linked to... perhaps the page you were meaning to edit was User:Fractions/msg? I provided the link so you can try and repeat your message, maybe it'll have a better effect. If you do, indeed, attempt to report me for vandalism, which I've never done (you can check my contributions), I'll submit a counter-claim. In case you didn't know, user pages that were made by the user (in this case, ME), it's NOT vandalism. I don't expect someone like you to keep this on your talk page... it doesn't matter. I've said what I've had to say, and this time: you've been warned. FRACTIONS (t | c) 18:21, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

How could you file a counter claim when I have never once vandalised a page here on Wikipedia? I had no problem with you until you made one. I simply warned the account of Veale728 for vandalising articles titled Nickelback, The Long Road Home, and Chad Kroeger. Subsequently, I received some reversions of my warning on that talk page, and some nasty remarks on this page from you. Why would you need to revert on that page and why would you feel the need to use that terminology with me? The only thing that you seem to exhibit is defamatory behavior and not one reason to back it up. Oh and by the way, it's every editor's right to revert and warn about Vandalism here on Wikipedia. It's people like yourself that take all the joy out of editing Wikipedia. Unless you have a good reason for this dispute, and I suspect you will not, the discussion about it is over. I refuse to edit war with you. --Candy156sweet (talk) 00:35, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Dildo, if you read my response correctly, I never said that I was going to accuse you of vandalism. I just said I'd counter-claim. And you're right, it is every editor's right to revert! So, why would you ask me "why would you do that"? And it's people like me who give humor to Wikipedia. People like YOU, the far-off-the-scale liberals who feel that EVERY edit is vandalism take the fun out of Wikipedia. Don't respond, I've already reverted the page of mine that you vandalized. FRACTIONS (t | c) 02:07, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Calling me a dildo is vandalism. Me responding politely to you and reverting and warning on the talkpage in response to the vandalism on the aformentioned articles IS not vandalism. You're not humourous, you're a nuisance. --Candy156sweet (talk) 02:33, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
You know what the best thing about Wikipedia is, the history log. As of right now this conversation is CLOSED! --Candy156sweet (talk) 04:55, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
