Persistent vandal (hand-off, if you don't mind)Hi there: I've reached the end of my patience with an IP vandal who has added a speedy deletion tag to Jockstrap nine times now. He apparently wants the article titled Athletic supporter. I blocked User:68.96.192.118 and he immediately popped up at User:63.3.3.2. I've now protected the page against editing by unregistered users -- which may drive him to registration. I'd appreciate it if you would keep an eye on this page... I'm not asking you to agree with me about whether or not his tagging is appropriate, of course, you must do what you think is best, but I will suggest that if deletion is required, it's not a case for a speedy tag. By the way, on an unrelated matter, I was invited by another vandal to stick African goldfish up my ass today. That's the most creative one I've had in a while. You?

ReplyOh, yeah, sure. Sorry, didn't think I had to! Therequiembellishere (talk) 18:36, 5 January 2008 (UTC) Re:The Original Second RFAOn it was indeed a second RFA. It was a self-nom that I decided I did not want as I knew that I shouldn't and that I was not ready for. It was wrong to write it, as I should have done so in a subpage. I wrote it as a way to see what I knew about myself and about the process. I should not have put it up, and it was a total mistake. If people ask to see it, I would gladly let them. I did not want it. That should answer your first question. If you would put the contents of what was there on this page I would be grateful to you. Dreamafter ⇔ 21:10, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Regarding my last edithttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adult_swim#Australia_and_New_Zealand You stated my edit was inaccurate, how could that be so when all I merely did was change the tense of the wording and removed information that is not necessary anymore? The information before states Adult Swim is still being broadcasted on Australia and New Zealand channels but it isn't. I didn't add any new information to the mix, just removed nonessential information from the article yet you believe this is inaccurate... --Deepfriedmario (talk) 00:55, 6 January 2008 (UTC) Dreamafter's RFAToo late on the fixes.

Closing it as no consensus would have been acceptable (do you assert there was consensus to keep?), as would relisting it to see if consensus will emerge. But closing it with the comment "Keep, clearly notable" is substituting your own viewpoint for the result of the discussion. Furthermore, my nomination spelled out quite clearly how Shell is not clearly notable; stating he is "clearly notable" with no elaboration doesn't exactly stand up as an argument. Do you see anything which establishes his notability, save unsubstantiated assertions that being CEO of a company with an article makes you automatically notable? Neither do I. So, I request you either close it as lacking consensus or reopen so you can vote keep. Thanks, Picaroon (t) 23:38, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

I requested rollback and i got it ^_^ :) I could do some vandalism watch, but i prefer newpage patrol, once i get 600 edits, i'll request AutoWikiBrowser and make a new bot to check attack newpages. --Party (talk) 23:23, 13 January 2008 (UTC) Afd for Jack DethHeh, thanks for finishing that off. I was trying to do a non-admin relisting, and got hung up. Glad to see that you got it to consensus while I was trying to fix it. Sorry for any trouble. Xymmax (talk) 17:28, 14 January 2008 (UTC) Something About Mops :-)Hey, I see you around quite a lot at WP:SCV, and you do some good work there. I've also taken a look at some of your recent contributions and your editor review, and feel that you would be a good addition to our administrative team. How would you feel about becoming an admin? :) Drop me a line whenever you like. GlassCobra 15:27, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
I keep hearing about this, but I don't know what it means:What exactly do they mean when they say that a user is "trolling"? I know it has something to do with vandalism, but what specifically? I take it from reading what's in the top-right hand-corner of your usertalk page that you are currently offline, but when you're back, could you please clarify this? Wilhelmina Will (talk) 23:05, 14 January 2008 (UTC) my user nameI've requested a user name change from Watson Entertainment to Potsie (my nickname). I'm new to all of this wikipedia stuff...although I love the concept it can get frustrating at times, so maybe you can help me with something: I went to the Toronto Raptors page and made some changes (that just sounded better grammatically and flowed better) and within MINUTES someone went and put the page back. Is there a body you can send that sort of dispute to? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Watson Entertainment (talk • contribs) RfA ThanksHi GlassCobra - thanks for your participation in my request for adminship. I appreciated your question, and I'm glad that you found my answer satisfactory, even though it was pretty vague. Thanks to for your generous offer of help - I may yet take you up on it. Anyway, the RfA passed 52/0/0, and I'm now in possession of a shiny new mop. If I can ever help you with anything, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Need some help in regards to my last post Go2Web20Hi, I have recently posted an article about Go2Web20 in this section it was deleted I have added this article because I believe this is a very important source for information for anybody researching web2 companies (like me) I am trying to learn how improve it and add the additional significance to the page, but I can't find the page I wrote before should I rewrite and repost it? I was also trying to not write anything that might sounds like a commercial, as I don't think Wikipedia is the place for it not sure what is the right way for me to advance please note that the I am not related to this website, I am using it many times for my work and thought it is a great source for finding companies offering web20 products User:Vishvash —Preceding comment was added at 00:03, 16 January 2008 (UTC) My RfAMy request for adminship was successful at 64/1/2!

Given the virulence of some of my detractors who don't appreciate it when I delete the page about the greatest band/website/YouTube content/spammy company/girlfriend/gay guy in the world, I'm concerned about putting my face prominently to be associated with my nick -- but I am going to get TWO photos taken, one really secretive one that just shows the back of my head (above my bathrobe, of course) to post, and one that I'll send around privately. Frankly, I have the greatest bathrobe in the world; from Versace, it's the thickest bathrobe you've ever felt in your life, and I have -- get this -- determined to be buried in it. Now THAT's a dedicated cabal member. Thanks for the invite. Accounting4Taste:talk 15:58, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
McCorkell LineThis article was in the middle of a major re-write, which you ignored and deleted. Surely it is both common sense and courtesy to take note of the edit history; from this the re-write would have been obvious. Please could you advise how to retrieve the article as it existed. It would also have been polite to inform the major contributors of the deletion. Best wishes, --Counter-revolutionary (talk) 18:05, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping. If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker. P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:54, 18 January 2008 (UTC) Hello, GlassCobra. I noticed you deleted the article Carlos (singer) a few days ago. I don't know what was the content, but I think the subject is sufficiently notable to warrant an article. Could you please restore it? Thank you, Korg (talk) 03:15, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
Hello!Hello! I received powerful tools to aid in vandal fighting i.e Huggle. I'll use it for a while to increase my count number until i get the rights to use AutoWikiBrowser. Hopefully also, i hope my bot PARTYBot will be accepted with a pretty BOT tag. :) And i'll be temporarily absent from Wikipedia from Jan. 24 to Sunday Jan. 27 due to a sports event i am competiting in (Red Bull Crashed Ice). --Party (talk) 03:25, 21 January 2008 (UTC) My RfAReturningAfter much thought and deliberation I have decided to return.

I have learned from it and will use the experience to improve. — Rlevse • Talk • 19:43, 21 January 2008 (UTC) RfAThanks for that, I do appreciate the concern and you were quite right to take the position you did.
