[edit] Ref: Your message about article Beverly Hillbillies

Most assuredly the edits made by me jsimone are NOT vandalism. Did you read me edits? Did you look at what I added? I cited references the the current series running on WGN Chicago as my source for each day I make edits.

PLEASE REFRAIN from undoing other peoples work!

I can understands your intentions are good BUT read what has been added before declaring it as vandalism! Looks like I am not only one you have done this to.

[edit] Ref: Your message about article Mudaliar

Hi, The edits made by me Saedirof 15:37, 5 October 2007 (UTC) are not vandalism

As you can see there are proper proofs for all my edits. I have only reorganized the page and added more proofs for various sections. Please verify the proofs before reverting my changes. I'll wait for your reply before making more changes.

Saedirof 15:37, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Please discuss it first before making any major changes Shawnpoo 15:40, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi,

Already discussed these changes in RFC. Saedirof 15:48, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I looked in Mudaliar's discussion page and i could not locate your discussion anywhere. Shawnpoo

[edit] Angels & Devils

I'm not sure what the problem is, I was trying to make minor edit and then half the page was missing, when I tried to correct that, all of my edits were reverted and I received several messages claiming that I was a vandal. Look at my track history, I've been a contributor to wikipedia or some time, I'm no vandal. Darwin's Bulldog 00:26, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

No worries, I still don't know what happened. I've since fixed the problem. This kind of problem happened to me once before, but it's been a while. Thanks for getting back to me. Darwin's Bulldog 00:33, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Archiving

There's a few tools, notably User:Werdnabot, but the easy way is to just copy all the text into a new page, then link that page.

It's good to do when your talk page gets very long, like mine had. Adam Cuerden ^talk 00:27, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Sandbox

Just in passing, there is no need to revert nonsense edits at WP:SANDBOX. The sandbox is a place to test editing skills. Deleting nonsense or badly formatted sandbox edits may confuse new editors who won't understand why what they typed has suddenly vanished. Obviously, sandbox edits containing personal information, libel or extremely offensive statements should be deleted at once. Other sandbox edits should generally be left alone. Euryalus 00:41, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I was testing out twinkle in the sandbox. I didn't really understand how it worked so i just tried it out in the sandbox. Shawnpoo 00:45, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Ah. Sorry, my mistake. Euryalus 00:47, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

no problem. I know your just trying to help. Shawnpoo 00:48, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Not vandalism

I was restructuring the article. Take a look at who the main creator/contributor of all those Cyclura articles is!

Thanks for keeping an eye out, though!--Mike Searson 04:29, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I was actually reading your article and i dropped my stapler on my keyboard/mouse and it just reverted something my bad i changed it back the second after though. Shawnpoo 04:31, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem! Keep up the good work! My personal user page and an article I brought to featured status have been getting repeatedly vandalized the past few days...so I have a special hatred for vandals myself!--Mike Searson 04:33, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Which article because i can request protection on that page.

Ernest Emerson...it's been protected, but now they're trying to get it deleted. I'm going to focus more on the Cyclura stuff for awhile so I don't throw my hands up and quit altogether!--Mike Searson 04:36, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I'll keep an eye out for you're stuff when I can. But i have a lot of school going on lately. (I am only 14 :p) Shawnpoo 04:42, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Haha! Cool...keep an eye on King cobra that page is hit on a daily basis!--Mike Searson 04:40, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I will ;) Shawnpoo 04:42, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 3rr

Just wanted to let you know that I'm not a vandal I've been undoing User:Thistime19's vandalism to The Used's page. He wasn't following the guidlines set forth by Wikipedia which is why I reported him. --Zero Cool 19:41, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

you broke the 3rr rule so i reported you Shawnpoo 19:46, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

3rr? The only reason I reverted more than 3 times is due to his constant vandalism of the page. I was trying to keep it as clean as possible and for me to be punished for something that person did isn't fair. --Zero Cool 19:41, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tagging of Senscheid

I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on Senscheid. I do not think that Senscheid fits any of the speedy deletion criteria because sufficient context to know it's a town in Germany. I request that you consider not re-tagging Senscheid for speedy deletion without discussing the matter on the appropriate talk page. You are, of course, free to tag the article with {{prod}} or nominate it at WP:AFD. One-line town and city articles are rarely deleted however. Carlossuarez46 22:07, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:AIV

Hi Shawn! Just wanted to ask you not to tell a vandal he/she was reported to AIV (even if you don't mention the page directly), as they may pick up the pace with vandalism if they know they'll be blocked. Good work with your AIV reports though, usually spot on: saves me a bit of work. :) · AndonicO ^Talk 01:49, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

thanks for the tip! Shawnpoo 03:17, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem. · AndonicO ^Talk 15:59, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion

I've just removed a speedy tag you added to Maharani cave. You tagged it as having no context. There is no way that article could be considered to have insufficient context. It said what the cave was and where it was, what more context do you want? I suggest you stop using automated tools to add tags until your judgement improves. Take the time to consider articles properly and add the tags yourself if they are needed. --Tango 12:02, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Shawn. Things like this aren't uncommon with new patrollers. If you come across something you want to tag or a vandalism/3RR/rule violation you're not sure about, feel free to ask me about it on my talk page before you do anything. It's important that you understand the criteria for deletion if you're going to start tagging things. I'd be happy to help you out. Into The Fray ^T/C 12:09, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for pointing that out to me Tango and if i have any questions i will ask you, Into The Fray, first. Shawnpoo 13:40, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for the nice words! Its definitely encouraging! Mspraveen 16:30, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reverting Treehouse of Horror III

Shawnpoo Tell me where I "vandalized" that section.

--Ilovemusic1304 03:41, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

you removed the entire section Dial Z for Zombies.Shawnpoo 03:44, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Your report at WP:UAA

Thanks for reporting Assadrums inc (talk · contribs) at WP:UAA. Unfortunately the name is too ambiguous to take preemptive actions. You should perhaps either wait for the user to edit (to see if he's a troll) or discuss his username with him. Thanks! -- lucasbfr ^talk 08:09, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy Deletion of Cdncc.com

This website is one of the oldest in Canada, I do not know of any older ones in fact.

This site delivers Usenet ads in parallel to web ads, I know of no other classifieds website on the whole internet that offers that service in parallel, it's truely unique.

Being one of the oldest and offering a one of a kind service makes this noteworthly in my opinion.

Can you elaborate why these two facts are not noteworthy? If these facts are noteworthy and it was other parts of the article that was inappropriate can you let me know what they were?

Did you even read the article, you pegged it for deletion within 60 seconds of submission? That's pretty fast for something which has a couple noteworthy features.

p.s. I wasn't 100% sure how to properly contend this, if there is a more appropriate way please let me know, thanks.

It was written like an advertisement. That is why I tagged it. Have an administrator review the tag. and also yes you did handle it correctly. (also please sign your comments by using four tildes (~~~~) like that. Shawnpoo 21:00, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

I placed the {{hangon}} template on the article for the editor. Even if it's not an advert, then it does seem to be of dubious notability, but sometimes websites are difficult 'cause they might get a lot of traffic, but not have a lot of secondary sources. I'd have tagged it too.  ;) Into The Fray ^T/C 21:16, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the input, I will focus more on noteble features and disregard the more mundane in the future. There's really just 2 main ntotable features worth noting, I thought a few more details would complment the entry, I'm guesing it got too wordy and promotional looking then.Paris1745 00:05, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

This article has now been deleted Shawnpoo 01:41, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
