[edit] From 218.41.66.58

I apologize for removing some text from the Yayoi page.I'm now explaining why and I would like to ask you for your advice. As a Japanese I'm deeply concerned about the fact Korean people are educated to claim cultural superiority against us which I have actually confirmed by reading Korean junior high /high school textbooks.I fear the readers of the Yayoi article would have a recognition that Japan is a country made by Koreans although it has a weak basis such as "Information on the Goguryeo language is limited". That's why I erased it and I would be happy to hear your ideas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.41.66.58 (talkcontribs)

Everyone on the wiki has a different point of view. Wikipedia is designed to be an encyclopaedia, with a neutral point of view, however, removing text from an article is probably not the way to go about this. If you feel that the Yayoi article does not fit with this, place one of the NPOV dispute tags at the top of the page, with a note explaining why on the talk page. As a courtesy for other editors on Wikipedia, please sign your talk page and user talk page posts. By adding four tildes (~) at the end of your comments, your user name or IP address and the date will be automatically added. --Nick123 17:04, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Thank you for your advice.I will try to figure out this.218.41.66.58 17:26, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] "Popups-assisted reversion to revision 32915993"

What exactly does this mean? Did you revert my user page to its prior state? Mike 19:04, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

I reverted vandalism on your page. Popups is a tool which offers several handy features, including the reversion tool. The number refers to which revision the edit was reverted to. --Nick123 19:14, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
Thank you kindly for your assistance.Mike 23:25, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thank for the the reversion

Thank you. -- Dalbury(Talk) 00:09, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome :) --Nick123 10:32, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Message from vandal

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- pgk(talk) 18:40, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

The preceding comment was not made by pgk, but by XMattx1224, who has since been blocked. I reverted his spam links to the page StormPay, and he appears to have copied this from his userpage, not bothering to change his signature. He quoted my removal of his page as "Reverting Vandalism"...--Nick123 10:32, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for reverting the edit made to Current Events--Kevin Hanse (talk) 21:41, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you!

Thanks for reverting the vandalism to my userpage. I appreciate it!--ViolinGirl 13:22, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Warning!

It appears that you have reverted some changes made to the Autosurf article. The changes you reverted appear to not be vandalism per se, but part of a NPOV war that is currently on-going. This message is not a reflection of my opinion on this article, but just a note to make sure that you understand the context of these reverted changes. CaptainObvious 02:17, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

The reason for me reverting the changes to the Autosurf article were to remove the affiliate links placed on that page, to the last version by Naconkantari (edit history:rv, no referrer links). This is in accordance with the {{cleanup-spam}} tag at the top of the page. If I inadvertantly removed some content, which was added with the referrer links, then I apologise. Thank you. --Nick123 (t/c) 15:57, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
I see. Naconkantari only removed the referrer ids, but the kept the links themselves. The edit prior to yours, however, removed them completely, which seems to me to follow a closer reading of Wikipedia:External links. In effect, your edit restored those spam links. I'm planning on removing them again, but I want to make sure we're aligned on this first. CaptainObvious 13:49, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
I've removed the links - the edit before also removed some content. --Nick123 (t/c) 15:16, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ariel Sharon

Nick123 said: I've reverted your edit of Ariel Sharon as you appear to have chopped off the bottom of the page.

This seems to be happening an awful lot lately. I must be suffering browser troubles. I'm going to see if I can check it out, see what's wrong. Thank you for telling me. I'll be careful to save the complete article in future. Bobo192. 10:54, 7 January 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Stroke

Sorry about that edit that looked like vandalism. I did the revert of vandalism at the same time as someone else.--Adam (talk) 20:35, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

No problem. It didn't really look like vandalism, just a mis-click. Thanks for the note anyway :) --Nick123 (t/c) 20:37, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Last Time i checked pointing out POV issues is not vandelism...

Last Time i checked pointing out POV issues is not vandelism. To put it more in an easier to understand language but outt —Preceding unsigned comment added by Orog123 (talkcontribs)

It isn't, however, blanking out a user page is vandalism. --Nick123 10:42, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] James W. Flanagan article

Thanks for reverting my brain freeze on this article. — Bellhalla 17:02, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

No problem. I wondered why you redirected it to itself :) --Nick123 (t/c) 17:05, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Arrondissement of Saint-Gaudens

Hi, Thanks for watching the page but I'm getting its size down in 2 steps - first is rplacing blanks with QQ. Please don't revert. Dlyons493 Talk 21:27, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

PS Thanks for checking - its actually hard to do the size reduction because vandal fighters are so efficient :-)

[edit] from 195.137.14.213

re your message, thanks for noticing, I should put down some back-story. my channel was being trolled about wikipedia being unreliable, because the si unit for kilobyte wasn't K but wikipedia said it could be waah waah WAAH (I fixed it.) He very maturely replaced the page about SI units with "Patrick` sucks", which as you can probably guess is my handle. I went to revert it, you slipped in first, proving the system works. Then I got bored and kickbanned him, but the point is I felt I owed you one for proving my point.

[edit] yitzchak kaduri

Hi, It seems I didn't work smart to correct the error. I didn't meean to revert you. How can we procede to revert Yoninahs 'move' properly and set up a proper vote?

Thanks--Shuki 22:59, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
