[edit] Arithmetic progression article

Hello... FYI, your note about intermediate versions should go to the IP User:124.82.76.79. My only edit to that page was a revert of vandalism one week ago. --Ckatz^chat_spy 18:47, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I'll resubmit my note, if it still applies. Tcncv (talk) 18:52, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WTF

I didnt vandalise Matthew Mcnair Secondary I AM A STUDENT THERE the VP's name was spelt wrong. And i am a previous student at hamilton elementary the Vice principal became a principal in a delta school and they have a new vice principal.

If your edits are a mix of vandalism and other edits, it's easily assumed that these other edits are also false. If you believe them to be true, you may add them back in and I will leave them alone. Tcncv (talk) 00:23, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] What's a good faith edit?

What's a good faith edit? --Deep Alexander (talk) 00:35, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

In this case, it means that I respectfully acknowledge that that your edit was made with the intention of improving the article, but after looking at my sources, I happen to disagree. However, my opinion isn't worth more than anyone else's. Wikiedia welcomes all productive contributions (subject to certain Wikipedia standards). I suggest you investigate the most common usage. If you believe your change to be correct, add it back in and I will leave it alone. Tcncv (talk) 00:49, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for catching the nice little rollback collision on the Hogwarts article. The other editor and I apparently were both trying to rollback at the same time and, well, you saw the result! --InDeBiz1 (talk) 05:47, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome. Things get dicey when there are multiple simultaneous vandalism IPs. Sometimes it's best just to compare to the prior day and rollback if there's nothing productive. --- Tcncv (talk) 05:50, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] This is absurd

This is absurd. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.33.13.233 (talk) 03:14, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

In what way? Surely you can't expect your changes to go unchallenged, do you? -- Tcncv (talk) 03:26, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Brontosaurus

That picture of a Brontosaurus cannot be from 1905, there was no such thing as color back then. It must be from 1945 at the earliest. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.157.245.207 (talk) 04:56, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Revert on Bootloaders

Re: Revert on Bootloaders When you did a revert of my previous post was your intention to remove the rather large chunk of the page that you did? I've reverted your undo because the paragraph you deleted was nothing to do with my addition (and thus your "undo" of my edits was a false assertion). (Note from 22:01, 1 April 2008 88.106.191.225 - transferred from my home page, where it initially sat unnoticed, since the change didn't trigger an alert.)

Hello. Thank you for catching and correcting the material deletion. For some reason the rollback tool sometimes (very rarely) does not restore the entire article as intended. Not sure why - possibly a communication error. I usually check the results, but apparently didn't scroll down far enough to catch this one.

As for your changes to the article, I originally only reviewed your first change and was of the opinion that it contradicted the discussion of common multi-stage boot processes that appeared later in the article. That was why I attempted to roll it back. I now realize that I neglected to review all of your changes. Had I done so, I would have seen the overall positive nature of your edits and not taken the action I did. Please accept my apologies. I will strive to be more careful in the future.

And thank you for your contributions. -- Tcncv (talk) 05:51, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Great God Forbid Debate of 08'

Hey noobz. You toaly deleted my addition 2 god forbid n shit. liek dis is toaly uncalled for i was juz stating the obvious LOL. dey are toaly black people hahaha, and i got nuffin rong wit dat, itz juz so tru hahahaha. EDIT: When you sent me a message saying I made a questionable edit, you spelt "have" as "havde". You just lost the game. (Unsigned from 58.173.233.175 (talk) - 08:13, 8 April 2008)

If you disagree with my assessment, you have the ability to add the change to God Forbid‎ back in. I will leave it alone. Just be aware that due to the content of some of your other edits, you may find that your changes will be subject to a higher level of scrutiny. -- Tcncv (talk) 18:49, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Asuming good faith

I wish to remind you that using a level 4 vandalism template on a user that has not recieved ANY prior warning is agaisnt the wikipedia regulations. you did this on User_talk:24.207.122.254

You are doing this far to often so please consider this YOUR only warning :)

Should you continue to do this further action may be taken by administrators. Please do not remove this warning as that will be in breach of wikipedia regulations. Should you have any query's about the good faith policy please contact me via my talk page Prom3th3an (talk) 04:00, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

My last response didn't take - edit conflict). I jumped the gun on that one. I have doengraded the warning.

You say I am doing this "far too often". With this exception I feel I have stuck pretty closely to the 1-2-3-4 guideline. Occasionally if the user has prior warnings in the past 30 days, I'll include those in my assessment. Am I wrong to consider these? Do users get a clean slate each day? -- Tcncv (talk) 04:15, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

I did a little bit of self-diagnostics to see if I'm as bad as you say I am. I reviewed my last 500 contributions and found that I issued 13 final warnings, 12 were preceded by level 3 warnings, and 1 by an earlier final warning. In the same period I issued three only-warnings. This last one, admittedly in error; one due to vandalism following an unblock, and one on a user that was inappropriate images across multiple pages. Looks like I skipped two levels on that one, so I'm guilty of two offenses. (I think I was monitoring two or more vandals at the time, I'll be more careful in the future. -- Tcncv (talk) 05:03, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

When i said far to often i was referring to one time is to often enough ;) . you seem like a good guy, you can remove this warning and all relevant posts if you want. Remember, every month is classified as a new slate (start from lvl 1 with warnings). Cheers Prom3th3an (talk) 07:45, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Go ahead and leave everything. I don't mind a history that contains a mix of activity. It's a reminder that nobody's perfect and sometimes we go a little overboard when we get fired up. I've tried best I can to keep my a communications friendly and constructive.

I do have a question though. looked in several places and cannot find anything that defines the window for prior warnings. Have you found such a reference? -- Tcncv (talk) 04:45, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Why are you deleting my name out of the ARHS noted alumni?

1. 1 YOU NEVER WENT THERE SO BUG OFF
2. 2 If you ACTUALLY READ the discussion page you will see that OTHER PEOPLE have recognized that I am a noted alumni, therefore BUGG OFF!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amherst_Regional_High_School_(Nova_Scotia)

Please wee the notability guidelines at WP:N#General notability guideline. It does not appear that you have provided any evidence (reliable, independent, verifiable sources) of notability. Being known by fellow students or in the local community in itself does not qualify for notability. I am adding a {{list_fact}} flag to your entry in Amherst Regional High School (Amherst, Nova Scotia) to indicate that it is in need of appropriate documentation. -- Tcncv (talk) 01:23, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

I appreaciate the fact that you are patrolling wikipedia, removing the horrible stench of vandalism from its gilded halls of knowledge. However, my addition to beautify the article is in no way said vandalism. It is deplorable people such as yourself have nothing better to do then sit around and bite newbies such as me. I hate your type and must say you ruin wikipedia for all of us. Good day sir ~

I must say that it is refreshing to have someone notify me of a mistake in such a polite manner. However, after reviewing the change, I believe the my original conclusion was correct - that the change was not constructive. I agree that the article Stade Ahmed Zabana is in need of enhancement, I do not believe adding "Your mother is ridiculously ugly" and an image containing a light prism was a step in the right direction. I hope this does not discourage you from finding other ways to contribute to wikipedia. -- Tcncv (talk) 03:34, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for pointing out the horrific holes in my logic, it is regrettable to say but indeed you have me outdone. I commend you for keeping up the wikipedia spirit! But time is short and I must bid you farewell. In the spirit of so many vandals that have come before me, WTF???? WHY"D YOU DO THAT????!?! ~Your dearest friend

[edit] Elevations

The elevations I have been using are the GNIS elevations see here ^[1]for Beaver Meadows.

. I am not sure about the Google elevations and they may be correct, but the USGS ones seem to be "official". Dincher (talk) 21:58, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for noticing them elevations on Google Earth, I will change them back to what they should be —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.115.148.30 (talk) 06:20, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Be sure to cite a verifiable reference, or it is likely someone will come along and revert the chjanges back to the USCG numbers again. -- Tcncv (talk) 21:15, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jeff Probst

Thank you for your note. When I made the reversion, I actually was unaware of the fact that there was controversy surrounding his birthdate, based on different sources saying different things. I am as far away from knowing the actual facts as you could imagine, and thus other than quoting the two sources saying completely different things, I feel I would be unable to offer my opinion in the situation. All the same, I hope the issue is sorted soon. Bobo. 02:55, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alice Hamilton

Hello, Can I write Alice Hamilton in the article Progressive Era ? Thank you for your answer and sorry for my English. --Sweet buttuery tart crust (talk) 16:24, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

See the Progressive Era talk pages. And there is no need to appologize for your English. You can apparently speak English much better than I can speak French or any other second language. -- Tcncv (talk) 19:01, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] US AIrline Pilots

Thank you for intervening. I will refrain from inflammatory comments. I only use them to counterbalance when deleting doesn't work. There is very little room for neutrality here until the US Airline Pilots Association comes in with factual data. My comments are in line with the official line, and I can easily come up with an endorsed article from the USA Airline Pilots Association. However, Wikipedia seems to be more like being up to my ass in alligators while my task is trying to drain the swamp. So, what good does it do to get the US Airline Pilots Association to endorse a Wikipedia article if the vandals just keep spewing their garbage? Now I have to hunt for the tilde key..... Found it! Pilotusa (talk) 23:15, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

I appreciate your candor. I was debating whether to scold you for saying effectively "Don't use the word 'scab', SCAB!" but I see that's not necessary. By the way, I'm only a passer by, with no interest in taking sides, but I would like to see both points of view fairly represented. What is missing are the external references needed to document the views of both sides. For example, there was an assertion that the ALPA did not follow its own guidelines in the arbitration agreement. A reference that documents this would be useful.

Regarding the reference documents...do they have to be web based? That might be difficult. ALPA has predictably (and reasonably) cut us all off from their members-only website where the ALPA policy might be found. Additionally, the "windfall" would require some reader knowledge of the arcana of airline pilot seniority and quality of life issues. These are quite convoluted and almost unfathomable to anyone who has not actually BEEN and airline pilot. Pilotusa (talk) 23:52, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Well in an ideal world, all information in Wikipedia should be supported by verifiable references, but.... As far as seniority goes, I only know that: (1) when group A's livelihood faces off against group B's livelihood, I don't want to be in the middle; and (2) if I ever hear that an east pilot and west piloy are in the same cockpit, I think I'll trade in my tickets and fly United. -- Tcncv (talk) 00:01, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Flying United might not help. Word on the street is that US Airways and United are about to announce a merger plan within 10 days. What a disaster! Oddly, I think the pilots of US Airways east and the United pilots will do everything in their power to stop any merger between the two carriers, while the pilots of US Airways west see the United pilots as their knights in shining armor come to rescue them from the big, bad USAPA. Personally, when I go on a vacation that has airline flying involved, I purchase a ticket on Continental when they go where I need to. Pilotusa (talk) 01:49, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] DragonFable Article...

Not totally sure what happened to this article, but your recent edit made all of it disappear except the first two paragraphs. I've fixed it, and all content should now be replaced. Alinnisawest (talk) 01:13, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

My system hung halfway through the rollback. Had to reboot. Thanks for fixing the article. -- Tcncv (talk) 01:15, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
