Re: I can't see my new version.When you're uploading a newer version of a recording, the newer audio version replaces the old one as soon as the upload has successfully completed. Unfortunately, anything you write in the "Summary" section of the "Upload file" page gets ignored (it's only used the first time you upload a new recording), so when updating a pre-existing recording, you have to change the information on the recording's "Image:" page manually, so that people know which text version it's based on, among other things. I've done this for you, as an example. To see exactly what I've done, click on the "History" tab of then click "Compare selected versions". These changes need to be done every time you update your recording. I've also re-uploaded the recording with a spoken license statement appended to the end, as this is an important part of every spoken Wikipedia article (see the recording guidelines), although it would sound better in your own voice. :) Review here. -- Macropode 09:26, 27 May 2007 (UTC)There's nothing more to be done; the "listen to this article" link in the article always (automatically) points to the latest audio version that's been uploaded. I'm not really familiar with Yahoo! Music Jukebox, but my guess is that they're still serving the older version. Download it directly from the Wikipedia page and play it with an Ogg-capable player (VLC is a good one, because it'll play Ogg Vorbis without you having to download any extra codecs) and you'll get the latest version. -- Macropode 09:35, 28 May 2007 (UTC) Nice work. Your audio editing's getting better! Review here.-- Macropode 08:01, 4 June 2007 (UTC) Engaging in dialoguesHi there, in regards to the way you are writing your comments in the discussion on the talk page of the Criticism of Windows Vista article, I would like to point out that when you insert your response between someones else's comments, it makes the entire thing hard to follow. Like when you inserted your response between paragraphs of Warren's comment, even though it keeps the answer closer to the point where the issue was raised, someone who is following the discussion has to hunt through the pile to figure out new info (no diffs are not that helpful for large discussions). As such, it is better to respond below someone else. Even better, refer to the point that was raised before you put down your answer. Thanks, and regards. --soum (0_o) 17:10, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Your Page.Dude I'm sorry, but THANK YOU for welcoming me!--Tdjzcsdrpf 23:24, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Adminship nominationYou dont have to do anything when nominating self. If you are nominated by someone else, they put the time of nomination. When you are accepting, you should change to the time of acceptance, so that it is kept open for 7 days since acceptance. --soum talk 16:25, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Thank you!Thanks for your persistent reverting of vandalism to my user page tonight. I really appreciate that. --Bonadea 19:58, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Your recent RfAI'm sorry, but I've closed your Request for adminship prematurely. Simply put, you've only got 365 edits on Wikipedia; while edit count isn't the only determining factor, and numerous people have their own personal standards that they judge RfA candidates by, there was no chance that the RfA was going to pass. I'm sorry about this, and hope you don't take it personally. If you continue to contribute to the project in a positive fashion, I'm confident that you could possibly run a successful RfA in the future. You may want to consider submitting yourself to Wikipedia:Editor review for feedback on where to get some good experience, and when you're ready for RfA again, there's a great Wikipedia:Admin coaching program for you to use, as well as a guide to requests for adminship. If you have any other questions about becoming an administrator, please don't hesitate to ask me. Good luck! Evilclown93 23:15, 8 June 2007 (UTC) AwardHey Chetblong. Here is the award that you've earned by finding my super secret you-know-what.
Congratulations! _selfworm_ ( Talk · Contribs )_ 00:40, 9 June 2007 (UTC) Your RfAI am sorry it was closed early. Don't take it personally. Your lack of experience is what went against you. I would have said this earlier, but didn't so that you weren't discouraged from that RfA. And due to this reason only, I did not vote there. Lack of experience is the most serious question. You have 300 odd edits in total, and a majority of them have been welcoming newcomers. While that is definitely a very noble thing to do, it does not show how good a contributor you are to the content of wikipedia. We are here primarily to build a quality repository of informative content, not to build the largest database of registered users. Also, low main space edits obscure how good an understanding you have of Wikipedia policies. About the fair use images, after I pointed that out, you rectify them with just adding a template that says it has fair use rationale, but not adding any rationale whatsoever. This lack of understanding of policies and their enforcement can be excused for a new inexperienced user, but cannot be the virtues of a administrator. Take a look at WP:FURG on how to add good rationales. As for the answer to my question, your response has been rather unsatisfactory. Of course you gonna sort it by talking, thats the only thing you can do here. In the conflict, your interpretation was against everyone else's. In this case the answer that I was looking for was that you would dig up precedents of such conflicts from other similar articles and see how it is handled in general in Wikipedia. If it is not the way other editors are handling it, show them and resolve on those lines. If they indeed are doing it that way, assume the tried and tested way is better and respect consensus till you can come up with a definitive flaw in that. Sure, a better answer would have been awesome but this was the least I was looking for. Anyways, the limited main space contributions that you have has been good. And you are a good vandal fighter. But that is not enough to judge whether you can be trusted with additional powers. Do not take this as hatred against you, no. Interpret this as a pointer to where you need to improve to show others that you indeed can shoulder the responsibility. Keep contributing to articles, vandalism reversion and non compliant article deletion. Take part in deciding whats to be done with them (xFDs, AN, AIV, UAA), and leave the enforcing to us for the time being. Once you gain enough experience, I am sure you will qualify then. Good luck. --soum talk 08:44, 9 June == 2007 (UTC)

If it was supposed to be like that I'm sorry --Tdjzcsdrpf 20:01, 13 June 2007 (UTC) Re:Gnome WeekDynamic SubmissionI blanked the article, since another editor couninously harrassed me as I was writing it, and kept tagging it. I told him to leave it alone for 1 hour while I wrote it but every minute there was an edit confict, he is manipulating the article because I afd one of his. Being spiteful. Artilce is blanked, I will write the bloodly thing offline when I have time and post the whole think at once. People like this make me SICK!--Akc9000 22:49, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
This user Jehochman is trying to interfere with my edits because I called his editing shoddy on Search Engine Land and he imployed sockpuppets to try to get his way. I did not vandilze my own article that he is trying to twist.--Akc9000 22:57, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Was it a problem with my editing? or was it something else that I did not notice? If it was something I did incorrectly, explain it to me and I will try to avoid the problem in the future.

What makes this software product noteable is the fact that it won an award from PC Magazine and the fact it is actually written about in books. Can I list this info as it is? Because if it is removed, I do not see how the cites would make it noteable. In deletion review the reason why it was undeleted were this two cites now this conflict came up between me and the other editor becuase he wants to remove the cites and say the product does not work and I want the cites there. I also am working on a general article on this class of software program. This whole thing started when I put the example of the report from search engine submission software into this article. I have no idea why he says it is not an encylopedic example, it is an example of what this type of program does. Could you please clarify for me and have a look at the article dynamic submission for me. I just dont see it being written as an ad. I have written other articles many about hardware products without a peep from anyone. I just think this editor is pissed that I afd his article so he just wants this one deleted out of spite. Please let me know what I need to do to improve it further. Thanks! --Akc9000 00:41, 17 June 2007 (UTC) HELPHi and thank you, I will work on it now. I need help with this editor. He is driving me crazy. Since I afd his article, he follows my edits to complain about them. But he only complains when they are directly in his field of work. I have written other articles that he does not touch, just everything that has anything to do with search engines or seo work. This is what he does for a living. I think it is he that has a COI he manupulats things to increase his income and I have a feeling that I cannot prove he is getting a kickback from someone. It is very, very strange. I started to work on search engine submission software and he tagged it within minutes of me working on it. Something is up with this guy. Can anything be done? Anyway, back to the other article. By the time I am done fixing it the new one I am working on will be up for speedy deletion by this guy! He is driving me crazy. He does not wait 5 minutes. I think he is just looking at my history of edits and following me. HELP! --Akc9000 01:53, 17 June 2007 (UTC) Dynamic Submission CompletedDone! Please have a look at the finished article at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Akc9000/backup I would like to know your opinion of this article no matter what. Tell me the truth how it looks please. Thanks! Someone Deleted it while I was writing this note! Now what? This is just unbelievable! Luckily, I made a backup. --Akc9000 02:46, 17 June 2007 (UTC) Dynamic submissionI wouldnt classify the article as blatant advertising, deltable under WP:CSD#CSD G11. But it definitely has a promotional tone to it (which is in violation of WP:NPOV). Consider placing an {{advert}} tag on the article. However, since it is in userspace, I would avoid touching the article, rather point out the problems to the user to bring their attention on what needs to be fixed. Regards, --soum talk 16:46, 17 June 2007 (UTC) Thank you for clarifying that for me. :) Chetblong 16:47, 17 June 2007 (UTC) ThanksThanks for the MLWGS box and the info--Tdjzcsdrpf 20:55, 17 June 2007 (UTC) HeyI joined the welcoming committee--Tdjzcsdrpf 23:46, 18 June 2007 (UTC) Editor reviewI reviewed you.

I know it was deleted but take a quick look at the massive 10RR war going on at that page.Pedro | Chat 13:22, 21 June 2007 (UTC) Joseph GrieboskiErr, I don't think it counts as removal of speedy tags if the only contributor to the page is blanking the whole thing. If anything, it's sign that they're they're surrendering the fight. --Finngall talk 16:01, 21 June 2007 (UTC) ThanksThanks for reverting the vandalism to my talk page! Hut 8.5 16:21, 21 June 2007 (UTC) Speedy deleteNo, the creator is not allowed to remove the speedy deletion tag. He can add a {{hangon}} tag and explain why it should not be deleted; others can join in the deletion as well. The decision whether to honor the speedy request is upto the admins. As for blanking, s/he can blank it requesting the page be deleted (CSD G7). --soum talk 16:57, 21 June 2007 (UTC) You earned it
A requestHi, can you upload a Windows Vista screenshot for me? Of the search explorer (the one that opens when the Search button in the start menu is clicked). I am on not near my desktop (I am out of station currently, and I dont run Vista on it; Vista is installed only on my desktop). Could you please upload that. If it is not too much of a problem, please use Window Clippings. Thanks in advance. --soum talk 17:25, 22 June 2007 (UTC) Mosaic2007Thanks for fixing Mosaic2007's error. I've been in touch with this new editor, and I will walk through the edit history with Mosaic2007 to explain what's happened. It was inadvertent, and I'll do my best to explain the way wiki's work so that it doesn't happen again. 68.89.149.2 22:58, 26 June 2007 (UTC) My Pleasure. ^_^Thank you for returning the favor. :) -WarthogDemon 02:17, 27 June 2007 (UTC) Welcome to VandalProof!Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Chetblong!

Exactly what part of correcting an error on a page is "not constructive"?? Prezuiwf 17:51, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
KAFE-FMHi, I was trying to delete the page for KAFE-FM and then move KAFE to become KAFE-FM. I made the same edits to KISM and KGMI pages by changing them to KISM-FM and KGMI-AM. Reson being they are radio stations and should be filed under their full FCC details. Thanks Doublearon1 18:05, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

SorrySorry chetblong I had fallen asleep trying to make a new article for my new comic of the same name and hit backspace by mistake.--JakeTheImpaler
Sorry manHey, just wanted to apologize for being rude to you yesterday-- I was upset that my edit got deleted (among other things that happened to be going on that day) and I shouldn't have had an attitude about it. I realize you're just doing your job and, while it was an erroneous revert, I should have made an edit summary (which I will do next time). Anyway, sorry again for the attitude, I'll try not to let that happen again. Prezuiwf 20:25, 28 June 2007 (UTC) please indulge meplease do, tell me exactly how i vandalized the wonderbra article? that would be greatly appreciated~ 75.75.116.254 21:26, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
