[edit] WP:AIV
OK, the IP you reported 209.158.191.252 (talk • contribs • page moves • block user • block log) is a judgement issue, and you were definitely not out of line in reporting it. I think about half the admins processing that one would have blocked the IP since it is a vandal who has a nastily long track record, but in this case I decided not to block, and instead give a {{subst:test4}}-warning for these reasons.
- The last time the IP was warned was December 22 2005.
- The vandalism from the IP ended about half an hour ago.
If there is any more trouble from the IP do not hesitate to re-report. By the way, thank you very much for your help in counteracting vandalism, it is a severe problem here and anyone helping in fighting it is doing a greatly appreciated job! Sjakkalle (Check!) 14:40, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Typo fix
Thanks for fixing the typo on the Yahiya ibn Sharaf al-Nawawi article. I think the policy is to mark such corrections as minor edits. Thanks. :) --Nkv 12:02, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- I think it's time I got myself a pair of specs. Sorry to bother you. :) --Nkv 03:21, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your VandalProof Application
Dear DakAD,
Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that at this time you do not meet the minimum requirement of 250 edits to mainspace articles (see under main here). Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - GIen 18:18, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
Nil problemo :-)... kinda thought i'd get tuned down, but was worth a try --DakAD 18:22, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] category talk
That category was moved to Category:Wikipedians by D&D alignment. — xaosflux Talk 01:15, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
ahthankinyou. updated the WP:EDIANS link to it. --DakAD 01:29, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Uncategorized articles
Please be aware that putting a stub marker on an article, as you did with Bohemian earspoon, isn't good enough - please put in an actual category. Stub categories are Wikipedia maintenance categories, not subject categories. Eli Falk 17:26, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WP:CVU status
The Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to {{inactive}} and/or {{historical}} status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU#Inactive.3F and at the deletion debate. Thank you!
