[edit] 75.40.88.86

---get a life and stop defending the shameful corporate piece of trash na$car, the fact of the matter is that he scored the most points in a season six times and that makes him the champion to most people, maybe not to na$car. This is a public encyclopedia and I suggest you keep your biases in favor of na$car's broken system that no one agrees with to yourself. Wikepedia is the democratization of information and if you (the minority) don't agree with it you can find something else to do. Unfortunately, the minority in this case has the dictatorial power. THE TRUTH IS THAT HE IS A SIX TIME SERIES CHAMPION. The fact is that na$car screwed up the system, so are you going to defend that piece of crap? If you vandalize the truth by a user due to your biases one more time, I'm going to report you. Just because the system says he isn't champion doesn't mean he is not.

[edit] Warning vandals

Hi. I recently noticed you reverting vandalism and wanted to thank you for this contribution to the community. However, looking through your contributions I also noticed that you do not usually warn vandals. I strongly encourage you to do so. Simply reverting vandalism leads to the user being more likely to vandalize again and a harder time for other editors to determine how long a user has been vandalizing for. As such, I encourage you to read WP:VANDAL and see the entire process there. It provides you with a number of useful templates to use when warning vandals. At any rate, keep up the good work. Cheers.

While I understand your reasoning, I stand by the idea as outlined by WP:VANDAL that all instances should be warned, even test edits. While I do not always leave vandal warnings, there are test warnings as well. If you haven't seem them all, WP:WARN lists all of them. Test1 warnings are great for the situations you mention and also allow the user a basic introduction and welcome to Wikipedia. SorryGuy 19:55, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blue Diamond II

Hi Caster23, please forgive my delay :) I've been very busy lately and couldn't do everything I wanted here on Wikipedia. However, I didn't forget our conversation. Taking into account what you told me, I agree that the Blue Diamond agreement shouldn't be mentioned in the Blue Diamond disambiguation page. If you agree, I'll remove that entry. However, it seems notable enough to me to be included both in Ford Trucks and Navistar. Can you do that, please, since you obviously know more about the subject than me? Thanks! Waldir talk 17:37, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Sure :) But if you don't mind, I'll remove the link in Blue Diamond after you add the note to those pages, just to have some reference to that agreement in Wikipedia, meanwhile. Yea, it's silly, but what can I do, I'm a perfectionist (and an inclusionist =P) Waldir talk 09:43, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 68.217.154.39 edits

I noticed your warnings on the IP's talk page concerning their work against consensus by changing "Busch Series" to "Nationwide Series". You did right by giving them a template. I gave a stronger warning, this time handwritten without using a template. I think they should get one more final warning (using the words "final warning"), and if they continue they should be temporarily blocked for disruption. I'll try to keep an eye on the problem. Check my contributions to see if I'm on Wikipedia, for I'll be offline for the daylight tomorrow. If so, drop me a message explaining the situation, and I'll consider if I should block them for disruption. If I'm not online, someone could report them at WP:AIV for "disruption: working against consensus". I received the admin power this past weekend. This disruption appears close to requiring a block in my opinion. Royalbroil 04:44, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

The reason for blocking is prevent damage to the encyclopedia. With the slow pace of the changes, you should be able to keep up with reverting the changes. I probably wouldn't be inclined to use the block except when they are actively doing massive changes. I was expecting the changes to be much more active when I made my previous comments. I reviewed the blocking policy since then too. I may need to list the block for review anyhow since it is a content dispute. Royalbroil 16:07, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sprint/NEXTEL Cup

Sorry about changing NEXTEL Cup to Sprint Cup. I was not aware of the consensus. Again, my apologies. Avisron 00:27, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rapidshare

I'm somewhat unclear as to why you reverted changes which made this article more accurate (providing a quote regarding the accumulation of download allowance) and corrected the hyperlink to point to the page that actually deals with the download limit. Seems strange to me, but you're the boss. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.163.17 (talk) 11:21, 13 December 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Jeff Gordon
