[edit] AIV
Thank you for making a report on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to block users if they have received a recent final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize even after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again. Thank you. —Anas talk? 18:06, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Movement to impeach George W. Bush
A request was posted on the BLPN board related to Movement to impeach George W. Bush. I provided an answer that might help you in your mediation of the matter. The post on the BLPN board is here. Thanks for stepping forward to address this matter. -- Jreferee (Talk) 17:37, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Striking your vote
Hello Nathanww,
Thank you for your interest in the Wikimedia Board Election. The Election Committee regretfully informs you that your previous vote was received in error and will be struck according to the election rules, described below.
The Election Committee regretfully announces today that we will have to remove approximately 220 votes submitted. These votes were cast by people not entitled to vote. The election rules state that users must have at least 400 edits by June 1 to be eligible to vote.
The voter lists we sent to Software in the Public Interest (our third party election partner) initially were wrong, and one of your account was eventually included to our initial list. There was a bug in the edit counting program and the sent list contained every account with 201 or more edits, instead of 400 or more edits. So large numbers of people were qualified according to the software who shouldn't be. The bug has been fixed and an amended list was sent to SPI already.
Our first (and wrong) list contains 80,458 accounts as qualified. The proper number of qualified voters in the SPI list is now 52,750. As of the morning of July 4 (UTC), there are 2,773 unique voters and 220 people, including you, have voted who are not qualified based upon this identified error.
In accordance with voting regulations the Election Committee will strike those approximately 220 votes due to lack of voting eligibility. The list of struck votes is available at https://wikimedia.spi-inc.org/index.php/List_of_struck_votes.
We are aware of the possibility that some of the people affected may have other accounts with more than 400 edits, and hence may still be eligible to vote. We encourage you to consider voting again from another account, if you have one. If you have no other account eligible to vote, we hope you reach the criteria in the next Election, and expect to see your participation to the future Elections.
Your comments, questions or messages to the Committee would be appreciated, you can make them at m:Talk:Board elections/2007/en. Other language versions are available at m:Translation requests/Eleccom mail, 07-05.
Again, we would like to deeply apologize for any inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Kizu Naoko

[edit] Everything was well source to reputable sources
I did not add defamatory information to Prem Rawat. Everything was well source to reputable sources. Andries 14:22, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
- You need to stop using editwarring as a way to engage in editing. You have a pending case of Mediation based on your previous inability to find compromise and stop edit warring. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 14:35, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
- I will request a new mediation if my recent addition leads to yet another mini-edit war. I think I have shown a lot of willingness to compromise. Now it is the turn of others. Andries 14:41, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Actually, the revert was my fault. I didn't see that you had the citations. Nathanww 14:43, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] 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 20:29, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] You recent report to WP:AIV
Thank you for making a report about 63.3.22.129 (talk · contribs · block log) at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators generally only block users if they have received a recent final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again. In this case the user hasn't been warned since the 22nd May, and looking through the recent edits I'm struggling to see any obvious vandalism, with the exception of one typo. If you have any further question please don't hesitate to get in contact Khukri 17:41, 14 July 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!

[edit] User:Dfghdxdhgfdgh
Why did you revert my blanking of this userpage? They were blocked as a violation of username policy and appeared to be using their userpage for spam (a really common problem alas). Secretlondon 16:02, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
I didn't see the "blocked" template on the userpage Nathanww 16:06, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Are you still recording nanotechnology for the Spoken wiki project? I was actually thinking of doing it. .:DavuMaya:. 16:51, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Robobot
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Robobot, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Robobot.
