EntriesHi, check the editor's entries they are all vandalism, he is a vandal and nothing more. PianoKeys 23:40, 11 June 2007 (UTC) Sexist Mother JokesThe dozens and Mother insult have obvious and documented sexist bias. I am not calling for their deletion. WP:NPOV, however, says we must represent all views and requires balance. Thus these articles may remain but a point of balance is required to bring attention to their sexist point of view. This is a constructive comment and a call for rational balance. Rlsheehan. June 15, 2007
Admin coachI notice you are listed as not currently having any students. (I also note you are listed as preferring to co-coach). Would you take me on? If necessary I'll try to find someone willing to co-coach with you. Thank you! -N 19:39, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
MediationI saw this [1] and having looked at this [2] and this [3] I have decided that I would like to mediate some kind of settlement, so if you can post a reply to say that you would be willing for me to help and I will get back to you. I will be posting this message at all three users names on the MedCab. Darrenhusted 02:28, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
I have posted at the Mediation page [4]. Darrenhusted 13:43, 18 June 2007 (UTC) Can you add your approval at the mediation page, cheers. Darrenhusted 16:11, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
Legendary creatures templateHey, why did you redirect the legendary creatures template to the paranormal creatures template? The paranormal one is only suitable to cryptids whereas the one about legendary creatures is speficically for mythological creatures. Funkynusayri 16:12, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Eyepatchman.jpg Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Eyepatchman.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Hi, Thank you for uploading Image:Sirhan_Sirhan.gif,however it would be much appreciated if you could expand or clarify the sourcing information you have provided in the image summary., In particular which law enforcment agency took the photo?

Tiptoety 03:41, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
oh, just when you deleted a page it did not show up in the deletion logs, and i wondered if it was b/c you were an editor that was just putting block tags on peoples pages for fun, but never-mind, thanks, Tiptoety 03:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC) Category, uh, thing in templatesSorry, but I haven't been able to find the answer to this on my own: in Template:Diagram needed (which you have edited), I see the code {{{category|...}}}. What does this do? Does it only add the category tag if the category already exists? If so, this could come in handy on all the other Image request templates. And what exactly are {{{...}}} constructs in templates called, anyway? Apparently not "magic words" nor "parser functions" (since those pages on Meta didn't help me). Knowing the correct term would have really helped me find the answer on my own... - dcljr (talk) 09:41, 25 August 2007 (UTC) Admin CoachingHi. I have noticed that you are listed on the admin coaching page, as preferring to co-coach. If you don't mind then User:Lar is considering coaching me, but the user also prefers to have a few partners who can team coach me. If you are interested, please drop a comment at User talk:Lar#Admin Coaching. Thanks Tbo 157talk 13:26, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
Smile GreaterWikiholic has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing! 18:26, 27 May 2007 (UTC) Mother insult mediationDgies, at this point you should either withdraw from the mediation (as I have) or respond to the mediator's request [5]. I suggest just withdrawing. I think it's pointless to send the mediator off on a wild goose chase for a source that I'm quite confident doesn't exist, and is Rlsheehan's responsibility to find anyway. But that's just my opinion.--Chaser - T 00:04, 2 September 2007 (UTC) Possible copyright violation on Market segmentHhmmm. In the case Excel Business copied wikipedia (and not the other way round), aren't the violating the GFDL license? Should this be reported somewhere?

Admin InterventionThis user is removing a plethora of ELs to another Wiki based on the policy Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Examples. However, those links were not posted as sources, but as further information for those interested in the subject. Moreover, this user is removing links that were there long before I replaced them with the template you created. --217.129.169.136 15:36, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Sorry Dgies, Re : Image:Provisionshop.JPGNo, they are not the exact same thing. Mama shops are in the middle of neighborhood housing as just one shop, whereas provision shops are in neighborhood shopping district along with other shophouses (and comes with another set of history). The products arrangement in both photos are usual, though, and probably just the one thing in common. - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 15:18, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
My Edit of Hannah Primrose, Countess of RoseberyI find it disturbing that you would go out of your way to label my changes on Hannah Primrose, Countess of Rosebery regarding her husband's Internet Coffee Phone as vandalism. Just because they may not align with what you believe to be true doesn't mean they are vandalism. I am appalled by the type of censorship you have demonstrated. If this is what wikipedia is about then maybe it isn't ready for prime-time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Applebutterz (talk • contribs) 17:45, 26 September 2007 (UTC) Wilford BrimleyDiabeetis.com is not an attack page. We love Wilford! Drummer1986 03:18, 21 September 2007 (UTC) What is up your butt, seriously?! Quit being the fun police. Diabeetis.com is a fun little parody of Wilford. Merchandise is completely irrelevant in determining a website notable. Chucknorrisfacts.com sells merchandise, but it's still listed on his Wiki. This is no different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.56.169.89 (talk) 02:11, 28 September 2007 (UTC) Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Eyepatchman.jpgThanks for uploading Image:Eyepatchman.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:02, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Restored User:UBX/Country music sucksI have restored User:UBX/Country music sucks which you deleted as WP:CSD#T1. While it may be divisive, it's a very borderline case for CSD, and since it's being used by over 100 people, it really ought to go through the full WP:TFD process. —dgiestc 04:21, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
re: Template:Parallel ComputingI'm of the opinion that left-justified text looks hideous (well, not really, but just hypothetically assume I am...) The navbox class would have allowed me to override how the templated looked, while I'm now forced to look at the non-standard design you forced upon me. —Ruud 22:33, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

I appreciate the support! — KieferSkunk (talk) — 23:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC) BachThx for your edits to this article, and especially the semiprotect. Is it going to stay that way? It would be nice, since the article is chronically plagued by puerile vandalism, probably by teenage high-school boys writing assignments. It's a steady trickle, but a real nuisance to the regulars (and I'm sure to visitors who come at the wrong time). Tony (talk) 01:58, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Re:In Event of Moon DisasterOh, thanks for reminding me. I forgot that no need for deletion as the result is merge, my bad. I delayed transwikiing the text because I'm not sure I've fully grasped the policies on Wikisource. I intended to have somebody do it for me and I would provide them the text. However, I've created the entry here. Hope nothing goes wrong. Cheers! @pple complain 17:09, 4 November 2007 (UTC) Hi— Thanks for your message.

OkDone. --Varano (talk) 18:30, 29 November 2007 (UTC) Zape82 and Verano are EXTREMELY POLITICALLY BIASEDHi, sorry, I don´t know if you realize or not, but Zape82 started out deleting the article claiming it was a "Rant" and that it was rubbish, didn´t exist or something (check the logs if they didn´t get deleted too). These two users can only be "progressive"-feminists or members of the Spanish Socialist party, and for this reason want to conceal the facts of what´s going on. Everything I say is provable, I can point you to official documents showing over 140 Questions raised by current judges saying they find the new Women´s Court laws inconstitutional because the punishments are harsher for men than women, because the courts are exclusively for women against men, etc. Lets say you still don´t believe me, yet I hope you still care enough about democracy and human rights to read on? The new law put into force by these "progressive" feminists (PF) states that "domestic violence is a violence originating from the position of power of men over women", they´re actually saying in the new law that domestic violence is Exclusively only occuring against women!! I just can´t image that in a law book, but its in there, in black and white! So in the version of the article I posted the FACTS, and both sides of the story, with the PFs saying "the law is necesary", more important than human rights or the constitution, and they make no other defense so its a short argument to include, and those against, a range of professional groups some hundreds of judges, both major judicial organizations (where members are now being replaced by the Social government to avoid further embarasment!). All I can say is God help democracy in Spain! That´s my POV, but I still posted both arguments in the original article, and what we have now is a political whitewash, and just one POV, which is why Zape82 and Verano are so happy with keeping the new version - but you´ll notice they haven´t troubled to write a Spanish Wiki article to match (Juzgados de violencia sobre la Mujer) because they don´t want any Spanish citizens to even think about this court, let alone read the facts. Do you follow me, and why I think that the facts, all the facts, and both opinions should be publicly available and not blocked? Facts are important, Wiki is an opportunity for humanity to share information openly to allow people to be properly informed, not politically manipulated which is now what´s happened here. That´s all, its up to you to decide if you´re happy participating in a coverup, sorry thats what it is INHO. Rubén Mar 17:59, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

LockI don't know if you are the right person to ask for a lock on a page but anyway... on America's Next Top Model, people are repetitively adding Brazil as the international destination and thirteen for the number of girls for cycle ten even though there is no source. I've been reverting these but the fact that a large majority of them are IPs, they could be stopped with one of those special page locks which require you to be a member. Also, more non-accounts are adding third place to the summary even though it's really not that big of a significance and it makes it large and cramped. So is there anyway you can use your "administrator" stuff to help this? Thank you! Sireafi (talk) 05:35, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
