Harry Potter edits

Hi there. I am actually fixing all the redirects I did. You can check some of them by trying these links:

• Griphook
• Viktor Krum
• Barty Crouch Junior
• Barty Crouch Jr
• Fred and George Weasley
• Fred Weasley
• George Weasley
• Rowena Ravenclaw
• Helena Ravenclaw
• Dementors
• Troll (Harry Potter)

About the removing of the creatures, I did it because of the guide of Notability. You can check a previous version of it to note that all those creatures I merged and redirected into the Beasts article, were Harry Potter articles agreed to be removed. It was the same with the Hogwarts teachers (Umbridge, Moody, Quirrell, etc.) that were merged. The idea is just keeping very few (notable) lists and solo articles.

Robert Jordan

A friend of mine was, and let me know about his passing. I was familiar with him, but never had read his work. Kind of 'good' though in that it seems all parties were aware of his health and that the 12th of 12 Wheel of Time books has enough to be completed one way or another.

A shooting star landed right here!

For working very hard, and still finding the time to learn at an impressive rate, you deserve so more than just a little star, dear GlassCobra - but fitting the whole starry sky in this little box is a little difficult, so this will have to do for now! :) Keep it up, my friend!

Delta Lambda Psi

Tlafond 23:57, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thanks so much for offering to help with the page Delta Lambda Psi. I'm sorry for the language used, but am new to the wikipedia thing and I'm not quite understanding the language yet. If you could let me know what needs to be change that would be so amazing. DLP is a new co-ed fraternity at UC Santa Cruz (3 years), and the purpose of my placing it on wikipedia is to network with other fraternities/sororities that have similar interests etc. So please let me know how to change it/what to do. Thanks so much, in advance, for any help you can give.

Giving Children Hope

Hey there - as I mentioned, I'm new. I saw that you liked the Giving Children Hope page and you made changes and now it's gone...what happened? I'm confused.

EEEks - I wouldn't have any idea what I infringed upon?? I used language from my website such as my mission, a little history of our organization and such.

So I put up the Giving Children Hope page again - let me know your thoughts. I'm praying it does not get deleted again...

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 20:16, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Attention Needed

Could you please keep an eye out for these pages, as two users are bent on removing all of the scholarly information that has been added. Pages are: Hurrians, Armenia (name), Proto-Armenian language, Armenian language, Graeco-Aryan language. Also, it wouldn't hurt to keep an eye on the Armenia, Mitanni, and Urartu articles.

The two users are User:Ghirlandajo and User:Dbachmann

Thank you.--Moosh88 22:59, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Re: User:Noway419

It's a fair question. I didn't feel comfortable blocking the user indefinitely at this time, because there were some good-faith edits to other articles in the contribution history, enough for me to assume, at least for now, that the user, relatively new, has a serious misunderstanding of NPOV and how Wikipedia really should work. I don't think the user came here merely to keep calling Halo 3 "overrated" (that article is going to receive a lot of attention, for better or worse, for the next week or so), based on edits elsewhere, some of which seem in good faith. At the same time, I do agree that the behavior needs to improve quickly. I just didn't see an indefinite block as justifiable at this time. — TKD::Talk 18:10, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Re:Signpost

To tell you the truth, my role is only finding bits of information and collating to a central location. The best thing to do is look on the suggestions page, and write an article on it and post it on the next issue page. Thats how most people get their start.

Three revert rule

I have noticed that you have made a total of 5 reverts in the last 24 hours to Spells in Harry Potter. This is in violation of the three revert rule, which states that "An editor must not perform more than three reverts, in whole or in part, on a single page within a 24-hour period." If an action really needs reverting, somebody else will probably do it. To avoid a 24 hour block from editing, you should revert (at least) two of your reverts. For more information, you may also like to read Wikipedia:Revert only when necessary. Thanks! •Malinaccier• ^T/C 22:11, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm not as attentive as you, but I'll do my best. Malinaccier seems to be doing less of an accusation and more of a "watch-out, admins are nit-picky". Therequiembellishere 19:06, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

I didn't mean to offend you, but I wanted to warn you (as Therequiembellishere stated) to help prevent a future block. The reverts you made were for the good of the encyclopedia, so it wasn't like you were in an edit war, but you should still be careful. Sorry if I am still offending you. •Malinaccier• ^T/C 22:40, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

I'll consider your objections in the future, and am truly sorry. Could we let bygones be bygones? •Malinaccier• ^T/C 22:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Finish it!

Make a vote on Hex Deflection on the talk page for Spells in Harry Potter. I wanna get it over with. Thanks! •Malinaccier• ^T/C 01:40, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Who are you kidding

There is a sort of dictatership forming at Wikipeda. If you do not like the content you brand it "vandalism". It's time for Wiki to dump you guys, or users to get a new online service. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.100.153.113 (talk) 10:23, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Please bear with me. I am still new to this.

I'm taking my time to familiarise myself with the conventions, so I crave your patience.

I have put something up on talk page justifying why I think this page should be included, and I've made alterations to the page to try to achieve a more dispassionate stance.

I'm also seeing if I can find sources in the Radio Times online. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andyofnewark (talk • contribs) 10:51, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Echo 1

Yes, it's back - these things tend to just shy of advertising by the same author with a WP:COI no doubt. Any way, I nominated it at AFD to get rid of it that way. If successful, WP:CSD#G4 applies and it can be tagged for speedy deletion. Thanks for keeping WP clean - you can of course comment at the AFD debate. It's a good thing to keep a watch for recurrences - I tend to go through my deletion log every couple of weeks to see what's sprouted back. :-) Carlossuarez46 19:16, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

When I initially started making edits, I used Merotoker. One time when I logged out, the computer said my password was invalid when I tried to sign back on. Rather than deal with complications of trying to change my password, I just created a new name. One time when I forgot my current password, I created Merotoker2. I remembered my password, so I still use this name. If I have the same problem again, I'll be Merotoker2.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Merotoker1 (talk • contribs)

About my redirects

Every redirect you put up for discussion, well, the discussions have been going on for a long time, and it probably takes forever for the discussions to end. It's making the redirects up for discussion not redirect anywhere, and I'm getting sick and tired of waiting for the discussions to end! Please respond on my talk page.

Cool. I have considered becoming an admin but I'm not going to accept any nominations until I get my article creation edits/AfD discussion edits up. Maybe at Christmas or Easter but not now as it's too early(I've been editing nearly everyday for four months but I think it's still too soon).

IP vandal category

Not sure. However, I think that perhaps we should set a minimum criteria for "vandalism". What do you think? - jc37 08:22, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Well as I said, I had only been placing the blatant vandals that I came across; level 2 and higher, no test editors. I think that if we only placed IPs that were actually blocked for vandalism, that would be counterproductive. Conversely, if we placed every IP that made any kind of unconstructive edit into the category, it would get out of control very quickly. As it stands, its most important use is seeing that an IP is included in the category, which can give a hint as to what any future contributions might be. I may have placed a few shared/educational IPs in there, but we should probably refrain from those; due to the inconsistency of their edits, it might cause bias against them and loss of good faith, constructive edits. What are your thoughts? GlassCobra 14:14, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

That sounds like a good start for criteria. Would you mind putting something like that in the category intro for future reference? Also, there have been several discussions about school IPs. I think it might be a good idea to make a parent category for school IPs, with the school IP ranges in sub-categories. I think it would be a good reference. - jc37 21:45, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I've edited the category description. I've left notes at WT:VAND, WT:LONG, WT:AIV, and WP:VPP, but the main discussion is at the first link. GlassCobra 02:26, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
