Your messages at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Condalangus Rice and your edits are not in good faith. Under the circumstances, your edits will probably be reverted (by myself and others). Why not try to contribute instead? -- Curps 01:46, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)


You seem to be User:Potatoeman56 as well. How many names do you have? -- Curps 01:49, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Please read up on the Three Revert Rule, which you have broken on George W. Bush. In doing so you run the risk of being blocked. Don't just edit war, use the talk page, that's what it's there for. See also: Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. --fvw* 23:58, 2005 Jan 21 (UTC)

[edit] Sirius

Where did Rowling leave doubt about Sirius' death? - potatoeman57

Sirius fell through the "veil" between living and the dead - alive - before he was hit with the curse. Trödel|talk 02:03, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, use the sandbox.[1][2][3][4]--Muchosucko 20:38, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Potatoeman57

  • Potatoeman57 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log)
    • Probably the same as 24.166.6.140 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) and Potatoeman56 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log), and possibly other user names. Track record of vandalism, latest stunt was vandalizing User:Jimbo Wales. -- Curps
      • I think the editor in question has a lot to learn and is going to need a lot of guidance, but I'm not sure any of it is strictly vandalism. --fvw* 22:50, 2005 Jan 22 (UTC)
        • Well that's one interpretation. Be that as it may, nearly all of his "contributions" end up needing to be deleted or reverted, so in practice the distinction is nearly moot. -- Curps 22:59, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
          • The clueless can be educated, vandals cannot (well, they can, but it doesn't help). --fvw* 23:06, 2005 Jan 22 (UTC)
          • I'm sorry about the thing on Jimbo's page, I'm going to quit. sorry. please don't ban me, i'll only make good edits from now on. --potatoeman57

[edit] Sandbox vfd

I see you keep trying to insert {{vfd}} into the sandbox and subsequently vote on the (now closed) VfD. Please note:

  • The sandbox is a testing ground and the chances of it being deleted are extremely slim
  • If you REALLY want the sandbox deleted, you should go to WIkipedia talk:Sandbox first. But as I said, you better don't, it's futile in my opinion.
  • And you should NEVER, EVER overwrite a VfD discussion or change the comments of other users, this is the quick route to a block.
  • If you want to nominate a page for VfD that already had a VfD vote, you have to start a new subpage. I don't know the specific way to do it offhand, but WP:VFD might be enlightening.

Stop trying to VFD sandbox, it won't be deleted and your repeated attempts to delete it could be considered disruptive. Jtkiefer T | @ | C ----- 21:07, August 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Ayn Rand

I think that you've had sufficient warnings now. if you vandalise another article, you will be blocked from editing for twenty-four hours. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 23:02, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
