[edit] Schizophrenia

Accepted. Peter Green is mentioned later on in the article, and was not as well-known a case as Syd Barrett or Brian Wilson.

Okay, glad I could be of help. --Xyra e l ^T 19:51, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry

Sorry about those ——'s. I thought I was in the test page. I was wanting to test those buttons at the bottom. It's amazing how fast this stuff gets corrected.

No problem - please use the sandbox in future. Thanks. --Xyra e l ^T 20:08, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Registered my account

Hello, you'd know me as 151.151.73.165 from editing the Sango (InuYasha) article. Just wanted to swing by and let you know I've registered.Lankybugger 20:07, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Welcomed on talkpage. --Xyra e l ^T 16:47, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Robert Falcon Scott

Hi; I noticed that you previously reverted vandalism on this page, and I suspect the deletion of a major section of the article tonight is also vandalism - could you have a look at it? The whole antarctic expedition section was deleted by User:217.128.121.34 who has warnings on his talk page not to vandalise. He didn't give reasons either in the summary or the talk page as to why he blanked. Thanks in advance.--Anchoress 10:23, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

NP. I'm new to the whole reversion thing, and I'm leery of stepping on other editors' toes :-). I know the motto is 'be bold', but I'm taking my time getting comfortable reverting/cutting other editors' work until I'm sure. Thanks for the note, see ya around.--Anchoress 20:14, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

As long as you assume good faith, everything has a peaceful solution. I hope to bump into you again :) --Xyra e l ^T 20:19, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] St John-Stevas

Don't understand for a minute why you have reverted my tiny edit, which is merely confirming what can be found in many publications and also on the Bow Group page of Wikipedia. 81.131.11.93 09:21, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] rousseau edits

Sorry, the edit summary section seemed to have foreign characters in it and was not accepting characters, so I didnt use it -- I think this may be a new feature since I've last added anything to existing Wiki pages! In any case the Rousseau entry is valid -- here's an edit summary sentence. Will you add it in when you un-delete the edit or should I start from scratch? thanks, DEP

[edit] Anonymous voting

You are wrong. Anons can vote. However, it is up to the closing administrator to decide whether the anonymous vote has currency. IOW, an anon vote is not autoamtically counted. Removing votes is considered vandalism, even if it is from an anon. You should have struck it out with the HTML strike parameter and followed it on with a reason why it was struck off, and your own sig on the action. I do realize the IP I am using at the moment has no history. And this has been discussed over all of the "deletion" pages forever on voting policy.

In light of your action I can't say I would ever support request for administrator status.

70.51.9.190 19:32, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

This has been responded to on the user's talkpage. --Xyra e l ^T 19:44, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I do have an account, I only use it when necessary to access the resticted page create and move functions, etc. I don't vote with it, I don't do anything else with it. I'd rather not massage my ego with the account and claim to have thousands of edits, even though I do, but it's not trackable (my IP changes randomly). I also happen to think that alot of "registered users" have power-trips when they denigrate anons just because they are anons, and I'd rather not associate too closely with them. Since I usually am anon, I can also see abuses in voting, as when votes take place on protected pages, thereby making sure anons can't even make comments. And I'm not on Wikipedia for a social club, unlike the profusion of users who are very fecund in the production of inappropriate user categories and user templates that are frequently deleted on TfD and CfD. 70.51.10.146 19:55, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] BOPP'D!

Master of Puppets has bopped you on the top with a mop! Bops promote not only WikiLove, but also steady loss of brain cells! Hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the Moppage by bopping someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend, and help the chief Mop achieve his goal of world domination. And to spread the Moppage, just use {{subst:User:Master of Puppets/Bop|<you>}} replacing <you> with your username. Happy editing! Master of Puppets ^{Your will is mine.} 20:10, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Revision to Texas A&M College of Medicine article

Hello,

Sorry about not putting commentary on the edit I made. It was just that the website the link refers to has been down for quite some time with no substitute made in its place.

Thanks for the notice on edit summaries, though. Have a great day. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.127.87.252 (talk • contribs)

Responded on IP's talkpage. --Xyra e l ^T 08:41, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why

Why did you change the naruto? I got this information from Narutofan.com. It is strictly valid information on episodes, however strange it looks, as it does.

[edit] Don't know how to revert.

Sorry I'm new to Wikipedia. I don't know how to revert.

[edit] List of Naruto Episodes

Thankyou for changing the "inappropriate changes" on the List of Naruto Episodes page. I noticed it but I have never made a change on Wikipedia before so I didn't exactly know what I was doing. Thankyou again for keeping this website clean. :)

[edit] Regarding all the anime

I am SO sorry. My darn little brother got on our family computer and barraged it thinking it was funny. I am sorry. My dad just locked away his internet, there wont be a problem. Sorry for the inconviences caused. Deeply sorry.

No problem - responded to on user's talkpage. --Xyra e l ^T 10:56, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] It wasnt vandalism on the chili peppers page

i was just readding the singles info to the page. Someone keeps deleting it but i really think it should be there.

[edit] raised eyebrow

what exactly would i be citing, Its right in the edit history. Besides, the page as a whole was much better before, someone stripped it down and took out a large amount of information.

[edit] someone took care of it

Yeah

[edit] USS Sturgeon

This is regarding this change. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=USS_Sturgeon_(SSN-637)&diff=next&oldid=49434077

This change is valid since the USS Sturgeon's sail is no longer the only one on display. The USS Boston's sail is also on display: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Boston_%28SSN-703%29.

Thank you,

Randy Johnson

[edit] Moo!

You get a cowstar for being SUPERGREAT!

[edit] Toph

Hi; I edited a section on Toph's relationship with Aang by including a quote from the episode "The Swamp" on the visions the characters had. You reverted it because you weren't sure if it was vandalism. I think the quote should have been kept because it explained the 'emotional significance' of the visions, but if you feel it was unnecessary then I understand.

[edit] Xbox and Xbox 360 edit

I apologize for not giving a reason for my edit. It was to change the word, 'moderate' success of the Xbox and Xbox 360 in North America and Europe to 'great' success in North America and Europe. The two console's combined sales have outstripped by far that of the Gamecube and the Xbox 360 has achieved incredible success in terms of sale for North America and Europe. Please revert the change you've made.

[edit] Your recent rv on the article 1990s

I noticed you rv'd an anon IP and issued 2 warnings. The anon added 3 names to to the sports figure list. 2 were Olympic swimmers(multiple medalists) and 1 was a former CFL/NFL quarterback(multiple awards in both leagues). I am not familiar with that "decade" article or if criteria has been placed on adding names. Perhaps the rv and vandal warnings were in error? Maybe, if you have time, you could doublecheck those. And, if I am wrong by all means let me know...I've been wrong before. Cheers and tak care Anger22 22:45, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

No problem. Glad to help. 9 at the turn of the millenium!...trying to make me feel old? I was 9 in the 60's! Cheers and take care! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anger22 (talk • contribs)

Oops...sorry about missing my sig. I replaced the names as you requested. The vandal warnings remain on the User's talk page. Maybe, when you get the chance, you can rm them so they have a clean slate to work from.. Perhaps replace them with a welcome message that encourages them to get a proper ID? Take care! Anger22 16:55, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Warnings are being striked out now. Thanks. --Xyra e l ^T 20:14, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] shock wave

I just completed your revert to vandalism on this article. Seems like your rollback didn't go back far enough, but if if was deliberate, please let me know. AKAF 09:43, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reply

I added you ^_^ Whopper - Talk to me.

[edit] The Oracle, Reading

Sorry - never seen that box before. I live in Reading, and was just making it clear that John Lewis is not part of The Oracle complex, it is merely next door. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.25.171 (talk • contribs)

[edit] Edit to SheeEttin

Hey, just letting you know, I am SheeEttin. I'll log back in in a second and give you another message to prove it. --65.143.28.63 20:42, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Proof here. I'm just used to always being logged in. --SheeEttin 20:44, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit to website

You reverted my edit to the spelling of website. I *did* complete the edit summary for the first of that series. I'm not a vandal, honest! Hope you can accept it when I revise again. OK, i'll set up an account first. Just busy that's all. Martin

[edit] Dallas Zoo

Sorry I am unfamiliar with the "process," but my edits should not have been reverted as I am the director of the Dallas Zoo and made appropriate changes. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.36.144.2 (talk • contribs)

[edit] Thanks you!

Thanks for reverting my user page and warning the user involved. I believe he's upset with me for nominating List of Newgrounds groups for deletion. Thanks again! Wickethewok 20:44, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] KAS Doesn't Thank You

By USER KAS -- You reverted MY edits ON MY USER PAGE citing that I didn't sign in. If you had bothered to read my edit, it would be reasonable to most of the population that the edit didn't appear to be by a vandal. However it appears this program you are using, VandalProof, is allowing you to easily revert USER pages on a whim. Take notice I didn't appreciate your edit to my USER page. On the VandalProof page it states, "If you observe anyone making questionable edits with this tool..." and I certainly would call this deletion of material on my USER page bad judgment. Sometimes I wonder if people have power control issues and look for opportunities to power up on others. I for one don’t appreciate it. KAS 09:07, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Please be civil. Wikipedia has a policy against incivility, and typing words in all-uppercase is generally considered shouting. You come across as rude when you do this. Instead, I suggest bolding or italicizing words. Putting words in two apostrophes (''like this'') puts them in italics, while using three will bold them. — Nathan ^(talk) 13:58, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiLove!

Here's a pizza for you! Pizzas promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving something friendly to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Make your own message to spread WikiLove to others using Template:smile! Happy editing! ~Linuxerist (talk · contribs)

[edit] Coordination

Hi Xyrael. I am enjoying VandalProof. Sorry that I've been slowing you down. I'm pretty much done for the night, so you shouldn't have any more problems. How do people typically handle coordinating RC patrol? Is there a schedule? -Nick^talk 06:49, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
