Clay Serby Article

I deleted the majority of the article as it was taken directly from another website.

Bot made mistake with revision

The bot reverted an edit of a release date for the port of Half-Life Deathmatch. The original version said it was released 21 days ago, on May 2, 2006. I have been playing this game for quite a bit longer than 21 days. It is an undisputed fact that the game was released on November 30th, 2004. The article is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-Life ; and the date is under the "Later Developments" heading.

I need your advice on my edits on Khatri article

I made some edits to the khatri article twice but they were reverted both times by Moderator3000. One was correcting a link to surname called Seth. The other was about Walias (which I linked) also being also called Ahluwalias.

Both these modifications are valid but they are being reverted both the times. I don't know if Moderator3000 is an official moderator of Wikipedia or is just doing what he seems fit.

Request for Adminship

Thank you for supporting/objecting/tropicanising me in my request for Adminship. Although I wasn't promoted to admin status, with a final vote count of 14/27/12, I am very happy with the response I received from my fellow Wikipedians. I was pleasantly suprised at the support, and was touched by it. I will also work harder on preventing disputes and boosting my edit count (which is on the up), so thank you to all your objectors. Hopefully I will re-apply soon and try again for the mop. Thanks again, Highway ^{Rainbow Sneakers}

Thanks

Dear Tawker — Thank you for your support on my recent RfA. It succeeded with a final tally of 72/2/0 and I am now an administrator. I'll be taking things slowly at first and getting used to the new tools, but please let me know if there's any adminnery I can help you with in the future. —Wh o uk (talk) 02:20, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another alienproxy.com IP to block?

Hi. I've just discovered that 66.228.120.35 (talk · contribs) is now apparently registered to Alien Proxy and is therefore presumably an open proxy. (The recent contributions from that IP have been linkspam for a couple of internet radio stations.) I notice that you blocked another Alien Proxy IP address, 66.228.120.36 (talk · contribs), in April. I suggest that 66.228.120.35 be blocked as well. (I'm not sure where to report open proxies; I only picked you because you blocked the other address.) BTW, the numerically adjacent IPs (66.228.120.34 and 66.228.120.36) are not owned by Alien Proxy. Cheers, CWC(talk) 11:04, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I've discovered WP:OP and reported it there. Sorry to bother you, CWC(talk) 04:06, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proxy

Hey Tawker, Could you possibly check this to see if 64.107.220.103 (talk • contribs • WHOIS • block user • block log) is an open proxy? Squidward seems to be using it, and he frequently uses open proxies, but sometimes he just uses public terminals. Thanks, Mak (talk) 23:23, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My tests fail to get it to proxy. It reverses to c103.triton.edu, so it's probably a university proxy. --GraemeL ^(talk) 23:26, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

pt:wiki

Hi. I have made a request to run the bot on wiki:pt (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Tawkerbot2/requests&diff=next&oldid=53629968), and it seems that some one else from wiki:pt did it already some time ago. Is the bot running on other wikis? Is it possible in the future to get it working on wiki:pt. We've discussed that possibility on our village pump and no one opposed to that.

Best regards. lijealso 01:23, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Testing, testing, one two, one, two

Guess how many times you've voted for Cowman109? :) All the best, MartinRe 10:57, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tawker, I have indented your duplicate vote on Cowman109's RFA. Hope you don't mind. Srikeit^{(talk ¦ ✉)} 11:02, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oops (smacks himself for being an idiot) -- Tawker 13:38, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

TawkerBot2

IRC? I don't know, what is that?. Let me ask someone who would. Platform? Do you mean MediaWiki? If so then the latest version. --Utopia.

Internet Relay Chat Werdna_T^c_@^b_C^m_L^t 22:49, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I still dunno if we have one. I doubt it however. ~U

Are you saying we don't have an IRC channel? We have a couple, see WP:IRC. Mak (talk) 20:21, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No no...I mean my personal independant wiki. I don't think we have one of those, after I looked at it. Do we need it for our bot? -U

Milkshake Brothers

You seem to be abusing your "speedy deletion" privileges. Are you the morality police? Why was Milkshake Brothers deleted? scotts

I would tend to disagree. In short it was deleted because it is a dicdef and does not fit Wiktionary's inclusion criteria -- Tawker 02:59, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately that's not one of the critera for speedy deletion, nor does it fit any of the other criteria. The majority of wiki articles start as dictionary definitions. The fact that we're having this conversation furthers the point that there should have been debate before deletion. scotts 17:53, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Beth Meacham deletion

Hi -- I just added a note to the Beth Meacham talk page; if you could let me know either there or on my talk page whether you think my justification is enough, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. Mike Christie 03:04, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sukh's RFA - Thanks!

Thank you for your vote on my RfA. Unfortunately there was no consensus reached at 43 support, 18 oppose and 8 neutral. I've just found out that there is a feature in "my preferences" that forces me to use edit summaries. I've now got it enabled :) Thanks again. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 15:54, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question about Tawkerbot2

This question may have been answered elsewhere but I can't seem to find it... Anyways, I've seen Tawkerbot2 give test4 warnings to users. But does it report the vandal to WP:AIV if the bot reverts vandalism from that user after a test4? Thanks, enjoy the long weekend. :) -→Buchanan-Hermit ™/!? 18:07, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The bot does post vandals at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism/TB2 after warnings.—G.H e 18:10, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RFA

Thank you, Tawker, for voting in my RFA. It closed with a final result of 75/1/0. Now that I am an administrator here, I will continue to improve this encyclopedia, using my new tools to revert vandalism, block persistent vandals, protect pages that have been vandalized intensively, and close AFD discussions. Any questions? Please contact me by adding a new section on my talk page. Again, thanks to all of you who participated!!! -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 23:03, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have an IRC recent changes feed

We have RSS and atom feeds. I dunno what else you mean. We don't have IRC. http://www.biosector01.com/wiki/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&feed=rss That would be our RSS feed. I hope you can work with that. ~~U

Thank-you

The count is in, and now I join the crew who wield the mops and pails.

Thanks for your support! I pledge to serve both you and Jimbo Wales.

If you have anything you need, then please don't think to hesitate.

For I am the very model of a grateful admin designate!

I love TawkerBot2

Your bot TawkerBot2 is awsome! Thanks for making it. I love how it identifies bad phrases and insults. :)

Bye --Starionwolf 03:58, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a seven-game series...

...just sayin'. ;) -→Buchanan-Hermit ™/!? 05:49, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If the Oilers win, fine. At least they're not the Flames, which I'm very thankful for -- I wouldn't mind cheering for the Oilers in the Final if they make it (which I hope they don't). -→Buchanan-Hermit ™/!? 06:09, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that.

Sorry about that. I think I know what happened. I must have been reverting edits to a page at the same time as Tawkerbot was and Tawkerbot got there first so VandalProof took me to Tawkerbot's talk page and I edited there without noticing until after. Beno1000 22:23, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bad reverts on Princeton High School, Princeton, New Jersey

Though your bot did a good job at first it then began reverting to the bad edits (with vandalism). If you could work on stuff like that that would be great. --Rabid Monkeys Eat Grass 00:18, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Collateral damage on 142.22.186.13

No problem, I just repeated the last block I saw on the block log, which, strangely enough, was done by you. I imagine you were in for a bit of a surprise the first time you blocked that IP. ;-) --Deathphoenix ʕ 16:47, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, okay. Too bad that didn't happen, wheel-warring with yourself would have been a thing of beauty. --Deathphoenix ʕ 16:52, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation

As I don't have the faintest clue how to go about this, could you create a Disambiguation page to differentiate between Daniel Greene who is an artist and Daniel "Danny" Patrick Greene who was a mobster? Thanks for any help you can offer. IrishGuy 21:26, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merci beaucoup!

Thank you, Tawker!
Thank you for voting for my recent RfA, which passed (to my extreme surprise and shock) with a total tally of 66/15/2. For that, I would like to thank you and offer a helping hand in any admin-related tasks that may be required -- it's as simple as leaving a message on my talkpage. Thanks again! -→Buchanan-Hermit ™/!? 22:16, 23 May 2006 (UTC) [reply]

"Hair pull"? Well, according to my first grade teacher, that's not a nice thing to do, but you can always try to prove him wrong. Not that I'm suggesting anything. :D -→Buchanan-Hermit ™/!? 23:09, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your Bot Rules!

I actually do not see as much of a need for RC patrolling as I did a few months back. That bot is impressive! Back to my relatively-new wikiproject. Best, Kukini 23:07, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wakey

Yes, I'm alive. Just not as active. I ought to change it to "Status: Dead". -- WB 01:49, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
