[edit] How Did I get inside Google

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/78/Wikiblock.jpg/800px-Wikiblock.jpg Frankly I don't know anything about Nlu or Ronberto nor I am working in Google

Bruno, I'm pretty sure your problem is a bug with the Google toolbar in firefox. You should try turning it off. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 09:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
I remember reading something about the google toolbar causing problems with Firefox on Bugzilla a few weeks ago, but I can't find it right now. You could try asking here: Wikipedia:Village pump (technical). Sarah Ewart (Talk) 09:16, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for Thumbnailing. I did not know that it was such a simple procedure. And what is the actual problem over there, when Wikipedia servers say that I am browsing from Googleplex !!!! Doctor Bruno 13:59, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

It's not the Wikimedia servers that said so, but WHOIS. May be Google toolbar is routing all your browsing through their servers for monitoring and mining your browsing patterns for advertising. Don't know for sure. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 14:18, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
A bit confused. Wikipedia Servers said that My IP was 64.233.172.34 (which is the IP of Google as per WHOIS) So I thought that Wikipedia (servers) think I am from Google. Am I right (எனக்கு ரொம்பலாம் பற்றி கம்ப்யூட்டர் தெரியாது ) Doctor Bruno 14:24, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Actually what I meant was that Wikimedia servers didn't tell that on their own, they queried the WHOIS database and got the info that your IP belongs to Google. Usually WHOIS database is reliable and hence the problem might be because of some Google application on your machine. Are you using Google Web accelerator, toolbar, or anti-spy tool ? -- Sundar \talk \contribs 15:55, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
I am using Google Web Accelerator as well as the toolbar. I think this is a serious bug. If Wikipedia servers think that I am typing from Google (and not from India), then may be that is the case with ANY Bulletin board or discussion forum (not limiting to wikipedia). Thus any one can post any rubbish even from their personal computer to various forums as the IP that is being recorded over there is not the IP of the particular User, but that of Google. I think this will be a big headache for Google soon. In case the cyber crime police want to look out for the person who uploaded Trisha's clip (hope you know that) to net, they will do a WHOIS and then perhaps file a chargesheet against Mr.Page
Also this is going to be a big nuisance to managers of discussion forums. I (as a forum admin) may ban a user who is posting rubbish and the ban is going to affect any one with Google Toolbar / Accelerator. On the other hand, if someone wants to create trouble, he can install the extension in one browser (say Firefox) and then post rubbish and behave as a nice boy with another User account with Opera.
May be I did not express my self clearly in the initial messages and that was the reason for this problem (actual problem) being missed by you Doctor Bruno 16:14, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Yes, I understand that this is a serious issue. In fact, it's not just the Wikimedia servers, but every server on the Net would think the same. Google's headache aside (they'll have data to prove who actually uploaded Trisha clip), think of the privacy implications for the end user. Google knows each and every site that you've browsed through! I'd advice you against using Web accelerator. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 05:11, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
In due course, the biggest problem will be faced by forum admins who will be banning one User and the ban will apply to every one with this google accelerator. And when such a thing happens, people will discontinue Google Accelerator (like what I have done today) and hence, Google will have a real headache. It all sums to the theory of natural selection. Let us wait and see. Doctor Bruno 12:43, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
True. And note that I have a bias against Google for personal reasons. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 13:15, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rajkumar Kanagasingam

Hi,

An editor is continuously vandalising my Bio over dispute related to Talk:Anton Balasingham. The editor tried hard to delete my Bio from wikipedia. You can see the evidence here(1) and here(2)' The editor is taking an undue interest over my Bio and deleted over Citation. I have restored the information. I requested an Administrator to check my Bio whether Citations are enough. I also taken this matter for Request for Comment. Though I have off-line media archives(which are attached on Talk:Rajkumar Kanagasingam, I couldn't bring it to the articles. Now I am very much frustrated. Please help me on this matter.Rajkumar Kanagasingam 05:52, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A very Californian RfA thanks from Luna Santin

 Thanks for your support in my not-so-recent RfA, which succeeded with a final tally of (97/4/4)! I've never been able to accept compliments gracefully, and the heavy support from this outstanding community left me at a complete loss for words -- so, a very belated thank you for all of your kind words.

I have done and will continue to do the utmost to serve the community in this new capacity, wherever it may take me, and to set an example others might wish to follow in. With a little luck and a lot of advice, this may be enough. Maybe someday the enwiki admins of the future will look back and say, "Yeah, that guy was an admin." Hopefully then they don't start talking about the explosive ArbComm case I got tied into and oh what a drama that was, but we'll see, won't we?

Surely some of you have seen me in action by now; with that in mind, I openly invite and welcome any feedback here or here -- help me become the best editor and sysop I can be.

Again, thank you. –Luna Santin

Only slightly late! I see you're still around, every so often, glad to see that. :) – Luna Santin (talk) 00:53, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
