[edit] Tunisian Footballers

I thought you'd rather have the new subject title below your archive rather than above it, but anyway..

Thank you for creating the new [[Category:Tunisian footballers]] to supersede the general Tunisian sportspeople. I knew it was a job which had to be done at some point - after all, Tunisian sportspeople is now blank. I just wish I had have gotten onto the job previously..

As ever.

[edit] Banned films#Canada

Xezbeth, why did you remove the section on Canada I added to the banned films article? —Psychonaut 18:09, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Hello Xezbeth. At http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children%27s_Internet_Protection_Act appears incorrect information saying US v. ALA overturned CIPA. [ "CIPA was signed into law on December 21, 2000, but overturned by the Supreme Court of the United States on June 23, 2003." ] So I added a comment containing a link to US v. ALA so people could see this was wrong. Then Omegatron reverted the page to the incorrect information. Why? Are you or Omegatron a member of the American Library Association? The ALA is purportedly against censorship and in favor of freedom of speech. Certainly the ALA would not approve the revision of the wiki page to remove the information I have included, would it? Please try to be polite in your response and please refrain from personal attacks, choosing instead to address the issues concerned. Thank you very much. Respond to me at http://www.plan2succeed.org/ thank you.

[edit] Sin City

What's the deal with User:TheGrza hijacking the Sin City page? He recently removed valid categories. --Viriditas | Talk 00:33, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Boozefighters

Removed your catagory for Boozefighters. Boozefighters are not a "Motorcycle Gang".

[edit] Adminship

Hi Xezbeth. I nominated you for an admin. Just go to Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Xezbeth and indicate your acceptance and answer a few questions. -- Darwinek 22:27, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

If you wish to know more about the Boozefighters Motorcycle Club, ask a member.

[edit] Cynic Guru

Hey. Thanks for your help on the page on Cynic Guru. I'm still new here and learning all the formatting. -- User:DragonGuyver 17:34, 12 Apr 2005 (EST)

[edit] Odyssey

That's too funny -- of all words for me to "mispell"! Good catch! 23skidoo 14:02, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] thanks for the editing...

It's amazing on how many pages I misspelled "assassinated". Morris 16:04, Apr 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Coquette

I'm not sure whether I've missed some policy, but why have you moved the aricle Coquette (film) to Coquette (movie)? You give no reason on the Talk page. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 21:11, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Congratulations!

Congratulations! It's my pleasure to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator. You should read the relevant policies and other pages linked to from the administrators' reading list before carrying out tasks like deletion, protection, banning users, and editing protected pages such as the Main Page. Most of what you do is easily reversible by other sysops, apart from page history merges and image deletion, so please be especially careful with those. You might find the new administrators' how-to guide helpful. Cheers! -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 22:37, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Congratulations, and I'm sure you'll be a great admin. Sjakkalle 09:32, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Moved?

Huh? I'm not sure what happened there, but apparently a section of my talk page ended up on Radiant!? Any idea what caused this? Oh and yes, feel free to move it back. Radiant_* 11:10, Apr 20, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Calum Marsh

Please remember to vote at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Calum Marsh as well. --Spinboy 06:50, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Check out Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Matthew Jackson. Thanks. --Spinboy 07:00, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User:whodunit vandalisms

What do you make of this whodunit character? Tschus, if I'm not mistaken, is something like "cheerio" in German.. Matthew Platts 14:33, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

Hello Xezbeth. Are you happy? As a sysop, you must have gained a big boost in your reputation for blocking vandals so quickly and efficiently, as well as reverting their edits. Always willing to help out. Good luck to you. Whowasthat 16:35, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage breaks Firefox

I don't know why but your userpage breaks Wikipedia on Firefox. To be more precise it forces the leftnav below your page. - RoyBoy 800 18:09, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] updates primates list

I have a copy of what Groves is putting into the upcoming edition of Mammals Species of the World. It's a 100 page MS Word doc. Email me if you want a copy. - UtherSRG 23:58, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User:Mista-X edit at A.I. (movie)

Hello.

There is an active discussion at Talk:The_Matrix#MIM_review regarding the suitability of Mista-X's external links, which he added to The Matrix, A.I. and quite a number of other movie-related pages. If you wish to, you could come and take a look. -- Curps 02:11, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Hellanodikai

Thanks for this article. I was wondering where you got this information -- it would certainly be worth mentioning your sources in the article. Thanks. --Macrakis 16:40, 4 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

Hi Xezbeth. I just want to know the reason why you voted me article of List of people who changed the world in good ways. If you want me to change the title, I can, but I just wish to know the reason. Thanks ImpalerBugz 06:53, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] WARNING

DO NOT REVERT POSTS THAT HAVE DEFAMATORY STATEMENTS ON THEM. DO your realize that you are just putting yourself in the mess of things? Did you happen to read the talk page? Did you happen to see who this user is? Do you see he is making claims that have no verifiable Proof? Do you realize that Mr. Wales has been in contact regarding this issue? You have let Personal attacks happen on Wikipedia. This is against your TOS.

[edit] Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Penguinize

I thought your decision to delete Penguinize looked a little odd. I count only 5 delete votes, with around 3 merge-and-redirects, a couple of keeps, a transwiki or two. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 19:03, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, that makes sense. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 19:13, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

For cleaning up the vandalism on my user page. - Fredrik | talk 21:21, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Somebody appears to be editing Iasson sockpuppet info...

An anon. user has been editing the templates and text of pages which state that the account in question is apparently a sockpuppet of Iasson. For the most part, Iasson is being changed to Faethon, and the term "public account" is added. In one case, "abusive" was changed to "not abusive." I've been reverting these changes as vandalism, but I'm not certain if this is correct. The problem is that since this is an anon. user who is only making edits to these particular pages, I am very skeptical that the changes are legitimate. Do you have any idea of who might be behind this? --Chanting Fox 19:43, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

  • I see you read this. From the actions you took, that's a definite "no" as to the changes being legitimate. --Chanting Fox 19:46, 14 May 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Thanks

Thanks for moving Jennings (disambiguation) to Jennings. Very much appreciated. Flcelloguy 18:00, 25 May 2005 (UTC)

How did you count the votes on Leeroy, what figure did you get? Everyking 06:12, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

I agree that there is only one keep vote by a well established user. But there are several keep votes by new users with a few edits. To me, that's borderline. I would probably count someone's vote if they had made 5-10 edits to articles already. Everyking 06:23, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 68.169.113.246

Why was I blocked? I was not warned about being a vandal, nor have I done any vandalism

Edit: Thanks for the understanding.  :)

[edit] You guys are efficent on deleting pages

I was reading the log, were ALL those pages real at one point? If so, some people need a psychiatrist, pronto! Antares33712 20:22, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Clockhouse Primary school

RickK thinks you didn't vote on this. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 21:31, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Lazlow

I've expanded this article somewhat since you posted on its VfD page. Please have another look at your vote, and expand the article if you can. Harro5 23:08, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks Xezbeth

Thanks for your support on my Adminship request. Seabhcán 09:32, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] My RFA: Thanks

Thank you for your support on my RFA. Now that I have been promoted, I promise to be as hardworking and fair with the admin tools as I have been with the other areas here on Wikipedia. See you around and happy editing. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 00:40, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for your support

Thank you for voting on my RFA. Have some pie! I was pleasantly surprised by the sheer number of supporters (including several people that usually disagree with my opinion). I shall do my best with the proverbial mop. Yours, Radiant_>|< 07:57, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you for your support

Thank you for supporting my candidacy for adminship. Kelly Martin 18:41, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Skaven

A small entry regarding a book that contains significant information and expansion on the listed race was removed, supposedly because of advertising. As the entry states, the download is free, non-profit, fan material. It offers a person checking this reference a profit-less opportunity to gain information without having to purchase expensive Games Workshop army books, that have since removed such information even from such works to concentrate not on history and society, but stats and points values.

[edit] Experimenting

Hi, can you please refer to what experimenting you are referring to..? I seem to be busting cojones. [1]

[edit] Is This an Article That Should be Deleted?

U.S. presidential election, 2002 (fictional). I just don't see the point of putting fictional plots from TV show and movies. Do you know how many fictional elections there have been over the last 70 years in movies and TV? In fact I am having a hard time wrapping my support around much of anything 203.9.200.3 has contributed. But, maybe it is something I just don't see. Advice? WikiDon 07:53, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for your support

Hi Xezbeth! Thanks for supporting my RFA! Sjakkalle (Check!) 13:18, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] My Rfa

Thank you for supporting me! --Kbdank71 13:24, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Animal acts

I'm a little surprised that you called this as delete, given that of the five votes, two were for delete and three for merge. What was your reasoning? Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 11:06, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Sorry — I didn't think to check the Users' contributions history; that should have been the first thing I thought of. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 11:31, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] VfD

When closing VfD discussions, please put a link to the discussion in the delete reason. It makes the discussion much easier to find (and, in some cases where the page was renamed or it is a second nomination, possible to find for non-admins). --cesarb 20:00, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Regarding Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Cantors:

I was under the impression (and my vote and some others were certainly explicit about this) that the VfD covered not only User:Cantors, but also the pages User talk:Professor Kaufman and User:Merlinzor, which have almost exactly the same content and exactly the same issues being addressed (other than the name "Cantors"). Will you be deleting those, also, and if not, why not? --Calton | Talk 00:24, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
No problem. I wasn't sure if you'd put it off until later, overlooked them, or weren't doing them at all: I was afraid of coming off as a bit of noodge. --Calton | Talk 08:04, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

As someone who recently started patrolling VfD, I wanted to thank you for the tremendous work you do there. It's probably a usually thankless job, but you're doing a lot of work keeping it clean. :) --Golbez 06:54, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Midianite

Hi, you appear to have made Midianite redirect to itself. I guess you know where you really meant to direct it, so i'll let you sort it out. thanks mate - Bluemoose 30 June 2005 08:13 (UTC)

[edit] WP:VFD/Old

Since I see you've been active in closing vfd discussions, could you take a look at my two unanswered comments at the bottom of Wikipedia_talk:Votes_for_deletion/Old? I guess Rossami's been gone for some days, as he's the one that seems to regularly watch there. Thanks. --Dmcdevit 2 July 2005 20:11 (UTC)

[edit] The Aviator

I'm asking permission to use the image:The Aviator poster.JPG on the same article in Wikipedia Spanish.

[edit] Primates category rework

After some good discussion on the talk for WP:PRIM with User:Marskell, I've begun work on cleaning up category:Early hominids. Please come to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Primates/category rework to weigh in your opinion on what direction to take. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:13, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Gangs of New York poster.JPG has been listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded, Image:Gangs of New York poster.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Legend of Mir 2

On Legend of Mir 2, which I see you've been reverting, there has been continued vandalism. I've reverted the changes and reported the vandal but unfortuantely I mistyped the edit summary, making it look like you were the vandal. Sorry :( I don't think anyone will get the wrong idea. --Duozmo 00:22, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Peer review

After Tregoweth responded to my peer review request on his talk page by cleaning up the article on The Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation, I am asking you to see whether this will qualify for featured status. Leave your comments in the peer review page; feel free to read my comments for its improvement.

I am asking you, because you added the first category to the article when I started it.

I expect a response from you in a good while. --Slgrandson 20:23, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 13 Ghosts

13 Ghosts originally redirected to Thir13en Ghosts. I've replaced it with an article on the 1960 original. Since you authored the redirect, I figured you might wish to know. -Fuzzy 22:25, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandal tag 1

Re Richard Nixon: Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. JackofOz 19:43, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi. I may have been a little hasty. At 5:05 on 24 Feb, you reverted edits by 209.152.9.14 to the last version by 128.239.139.254. The effect of that was to replace one obscenity (“cuntlicker”) with another (“fuckhead”). It looked like you were contributing to vandalism rather than attempting to remove it. JackofOz 20:15, 23 February 2006 (UTC)


Why would you from Canada return the page about Kosovo from an ultra-nationalistic Albanian point of view. What do you know about Kosovo.
