For that reason i don't find the page i added inappropriate, especially not when i plan on editing it into a full article. I'm sure you have no idea who the man is or what he has achieved during his life and are in no position to state whether it's an inappropriate page or not, but i'd be willing to share more information if need be.

Ed KalninsEd Kalnins: I do not understand why you say I vandalised a page. These three pages were my first (except for an edit about composer JS Bach, and filmmaker Tarkovsky). I explained on the talk page of the editor, who requested I do so, why the expression "Sarah Palin's Pastor", should have its own page, especially since it refers to someone who is not her pastor, and has been used on cable news all day today. 1. "Sarah Palin's Pastor" The expression "Sarah Palin's Pastor" refers to Ed Kalnins, who is NOT her pastor. 2. Wasilla Assembly of God. The link for Wasilla Assembly of God on Sarah Palin's home page does NOT go to the Wikipedia page for "Wasilly Assembly of God". Why? 3. I have been repeastedly told that Ed Kalnins is NOT a notable person by editors. He has an entire congregation and is the liftlong pastor of the first female vice presidential candidate of the Republican party, who is distingushed precsely by her religeous pretensions, and he as made some extremely controversial remarks, like that half the country will not get into heaven for voting for Kerry, or that detractors of Bush' Katrina handling would go to hell), even though there was explicit reference to his own church site with videotapes of him making the remarks. What better source could there be? The quotes were sourced by a link to videotapes in which you can see and hear him making them, as well as other links.
I am especially disturbed by "Wasilly Assembly of God" linking to a different article from the much visited Sarah Palin page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by EricDiesel (talk • contribs) 00:08, 3 September 2008 (UTC) - EricDiesel (I do not know how to sign yet) —Preceding unsigned comment added by EricDiesel (talk • contribs) 00:11, 3 September 2008 (UTC) Gracias!Thank you for reverting the vandal on my talk page! --ŦħęGɛя㎥ 00:31, 3 September 2008 (UTC) WowMan, you just won't stop huggling those vandals (for about an hour now).

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Pshomelogo.png)Thanks for uploading Image:Pshomelogo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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.

Does Wikipedia state anywhere that there is a limit on the amount of bias a review can contain, as long as we lay the information out neutrally? 2. If you apply a link to an article, does that count as contributing that information to the article, or is it separate? In other words, if I were to add a completely biased link to an article for a review, would it be allowed, or would the link have to be removed because it violates WP:NPOV? Also, one more: Is refusing to reach a consensus on a talk page grounds for a ban? Because I think a user just threatened to attempt to get me banned, because I will not agree with his own logic.

Thank you for your observations. Please review the following (from a post to one of the challenging editors' Talk page) and advise. Begging everyone's pardon that I was *not* the one who started this firestorm/flame-out (or whatever the proper cyber term for it is), I merely made to parallel edits to two related articles in similar character to dozens if not scores of other ones like them I have made in the past. It was the immdediate and hair-trigger responses of the two hot-tempered "editors" which turned everything nuclear. Here goes: Bob Ross deletions
I am not vandalizing articles: I was very clear why I made the edits I did. You, on the other hand, have an attitude. Viz your own User page: "These articles are ones that are of special interest to me, but that I may have only made minor contributions too, or where my editing has been limited to mostly vandal smacking. ....Bob Ross - grew up watching him and use his painting technique; his article is unfortunately frequently vandalized by childish idiots" I am not a "childish idiot". I did not vandalize the page. Please provide your rank and authority as a Wikipedia editor to make the threats towards me that you are. Thank you.Wikiuser100 (talk) 20:13, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for dropping in, Tony, and your calming words. Point of clarification, however: I was not the one doing multiple deleting/undoing, and other editors did not engage me to discuss things before making threats: I had simply made similar changes to both the Bob Ross and its related Joy of Painting page: in the first case to seek to clean up a below Wikipedia standard paragraph on Ross' marriages - which did not bring anything germane to the article as presented, employing only wives first names and adding divorce and in one case death date but without establishing any relevance to the subject of the article, Bob Ross; I also deleted what amounts to a promotional/pop cultural reference to a video game that has not been produced and is only being "shopped around" after being rejected by a major manufacturer. Similarly, this does not meet Wikipedia standards for relevance. The edits to the Joy of Painting page were parallel: first, deleting the above - which is not an actual product, just a concept being pitched -, and second deleting trivial pop cultural references to minor parodies of Ross's personna and work. None of this content was significant (or would warrant a page of its own), and its removal was not injurious to the articles; rather, it streamlined and kept them more relevant rather than less. It was the reactions of the two editors who near instantaneously posted their hostile and threatening rebukes on my Talk page within moments of one-another that started the firestorm. It is not cricket at all for such pedestrians - like myself - to go around making imperious threats and posting intimidating looking icons next to them to increase their apparent authority and bully a timid editor into submission, in one case invoking automatic "vandalism" reversion software to enforce their unilateral decisions to not challenge, partially incorporate, or improve but imperiously overrule my edit - which has just as much validity as their own. So, now we take to the article talk pages, but how do we end up anywhere else? I have made clear to both editors who undid my edits why I made those I did - even invited one to do a rewrite - and still hold to my views. They, evidently, to theirs. How do we move forward? Thank you.Wikiuser100 (talk) 21:08, 12 September 2008 (UTC) -end of entry- I hope this makes it clearer for you just who ignited the firestorm - though their whys remain unclear; my reasons have been given.

Hi J.delanoy! What is the situation on the article Merlin Gill? Since it's been considered deleting (here), why has it not been done?

It struck me that fire pots, of which a Kangdi is an example, are an interesting subject with a long history. So maybe the entry for Kangdi should redirected to a fuller article on fire pots around the world and through the ages.

Excuse meWhere can I report users for vandalism? I'm assuming I can to you, since you're an administrator: if not, point me in the right direction. I'll try and keep this short. TheSickBehemoth violated the 3RR on Death Magnetic, so I reported him for it. I added the warning tag for the 3RR violation to his talk page, and he removed it and proceeded to say to me, "You didn't need to report me, you big baby," a personal attack. So I tagged his page with the personal attack template, which he removed. I'm thinking that is a violation of conduct, to remove validly added tags, so I added a removing conduct tag. He took that down and added it to my profile, vandalism and another 3RR violation on his own talk page. So I removed the tag from my own profile, and slapped him with a few vandalism tags (He repeated consecutively, so I kept re-adding tags of the next level until it was level 4). He removed the level 4 tag from his own profile, and added it to mine. More vandalism and removal of content, after being warned consecutive times. Go ahead and look through my talk page history and his. If I'm mistaken in reporting him to you, point me in the right direction. If I'm mistaken in reporting him at all, tell me. If you'd like to know anything else, just ask ;) --The Guy complain edits 22:47, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

I don't have the coding skills myself, and borrowing seems pretty common. Thanks for your help and your support. I hope I haven't made a mistake. I really, really was tempted to unprotect a page that some Admin had dashed in and protected just after all the sourced content had been removed leaving an illiterate sub, that is not a good way to handle a content dispute when you have experienced editors writing a page and, hm, different editors deciding certain academics are right and others wrong. But wheel warring is bad. I think. Always. Usually. Things were simpler before. :-) Doug Weller (talk) 12:35, 19 September 2008 (UTC) Block or not? How long?Any suggestions?

HelloHello J, what's happened while I was busy for the last month or so?--Xp54321 (Hello! • Contribs) 02:04, 20 September 2008 (UTC) A QuestionCould you get me a look at OTRS ticket #2008091610055854? I am trying to find out why all the television market templates are being deleted and it has something to do with that ticket.

That was quite funny. ;) Cheers! --Phenylalanine (talk) 05:14, 22 September 2008 (UTC) Good call on the blockThe only reason I didn't block the anon user there was because I issued the final warning about the Tron edit (seeing as how he'd had a previous block) before I noticed his edit to Iridescent's talk page. I felt it would be bad form to issue a warning and then immediately block, even though the warning was for an earlier edit. But he looked like he needed blocking, so thanks for taking care of that. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 19:13, 22 September 2008 (UTC) Please Delete My User TalkI did not create it. So please delete it.

Can you take a lookCan you deal with this, I have to go off line and Charmed36 has asked for my assistance in a war. Appreciated. — Realist2 03:29, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
questionUser:Charmed36 reverted my sourced edit from Doll Domination repeatedly. Therefore I reverted User:Charmed36's edit. I didn't mean to engaged in an edit war Goliza (talk) 03:39, 24 September 2008 (UTC) Closing an AfD?Hello. Quick question: is there a way of requesting that an AfD be closed early? This AfD nomination does not provide an adequate reason for the deletion requested, and the editor making the request is either misrepresenting the facts or is confused. This looks like a clear case of a snowball situation. Either the nomination was made in bad faith, or the editor is misguided, but the AfD will fail. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 03:50, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you reverted all the anon's edits (Special:Contributions/59.167.198.129)? The site (http://www.tafi.org.au/zooplankton) appears to be a useful reference, run by the University of Tasmania (?). User:Kasmeister (a newish-account) has reverted your reversions (presumably/possibly that is the anon). I think that was probably the correct action (unless I'm missing something, which is likely!), and left him a note saying so and a welcome template. I'm assuming the only thing the anon had done "wrong" was to add a couple dozen external links? Afaik, there's nothing wrong with new-users adding useful reference-links (we try to encourage prose/data instead, but...). Apologies if I'm mistaken about anything here. Thanks for taking a look. :) -- Quiddity (talk) 06:18, 24 September 2008 (UTC) Thanks for the revert :D—ossmanntalk has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better.

Hello J!I contacted you recently about my edits, and I've been using Twinkle, right well, I might add :) I think Huggle would suit me fine, so do you think I'm ready for the Rollback tool? If not, I'll plug away and keep on fighting vandals (and writing articles). Thanks broseph. XF Law talk at me 15:34, 28 September 2008 (UTC) RFA/EOTWI opposed for virtually identical reasons as Everyme (and long before you posted your reply, so it's not that you didn't see it). If you're going to jump on him, jump on me too. You might not agree with us, but I can – and will – defend every line of my oppose if you insist, which is not a boilerplate drive-by posting but a lengthy oppose based on Ed's answers to the questions, userpage, and recent history; I havent gone into detail as it's unfair on the candidate to turn an RFA into a de facto RFC unless he asks for it. I might have put it more politely than Everyme, but (as far as I can tell) we're saying virtually the same thing. (At the time of writing, we are two among 26 opposes, so we're hardly voices in the wilderness – and neither of us were in the first couple of opposes, so it's not a pile-on following us). – iridescent 22:23, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
despicable[5] I think you may have misunderstood my line of reasoning. Or overlooked it entirely. Or decided not to care for some reason or the other. At any rate, EOTW is absolutely unsuited at this time to become an admin. And I daresay the way he opposed Karanacs' RfA over Karanacs pointing out EOTW's unacceptable self-promotion is far far worse than my uninvolved oppose. Far worse, if you bother to read through it. Everyme 01:05, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
Look, I'll explain it to you right now: I am of the deep and honest conviction that people who display overfriendliness online have more or less serious emotional issues, of the kind that certainly makes them unsuitable as admins. That's a conclusion I haven't made lightly nor quickly nor recently. It's not directed at anyone in particular. But everyone who has "your friend" or a smiley in their sig raises my strong suspicion. Therefore, I opposed based on that. To me, it still stands out of the multitude of deal-breakers in that RfA. When EOTW asked me at my talk page "Is it considered wrong to offer to be one's friend?", there was no other possible conclusion than that he didn't understand the difference between the Myspace/Facebook kind of "friendship" and real, actual friendship as I do and the firm, unwavering grasp of which distinction I regard as an enormously important quality, especially in Wikipedians. Everyme 02:10, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
Um, when you made your latest comment at the RfA, did you realise I had struck some parts of my initial comment? Everyme 03:54, 29 September 2008 (UTC) Something funny you should have.I just saw a particular bit of editing you did on the LHC article, and it has to be the most hilarious history log I've ever seen on Wikipedia.

Can you explain to me your reasoning? Aunt Entropy (talk) 16:45, 29 September 2008 (UTC) Huggle blocksHi. I don't think we can use Huggle to block editors at the moment, due to the new "Allow user to edit own talk page" option. Huggle is disabling this option by default, so blocked users are being unable to appeal their blocks. This is also being discussed here.
