User talk:Mboverload/Archive 6Re: User talk:71.75.8.12No problem. I keep an eye on WP:AIV, so I saw the report, saw the history of vandalism, and realized the block was rather appropriate. —C.Fred (talk) 03:58, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

RollbackRollback grantedAfter reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing!

Brazilian ArmyHistory; Last paragraph - Since the History's books used in Brazil as well as quotes from new generation of army's officers in media refer to the events of 31 march of 1964 as a coup d'état and it's effects, I don't known were it could be a partiality in my edit, it seems the contrary... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.81.228.172 (talk) 00:05, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

I noticed you got the code from somebody else too, so I figured it's probably kosher.

Lots of rules...Hi, saw your comment at editor assistance. Here's the short of it (from Policy trifecta):
Being that there are too many rules, #3 is of particular importance here: you don't need to memorize them, or even be afraid of making mistakes, as you'll be corrected over time. There's also simplified ruleset, which has the quick summaries of all the policies. and here's a nice essay! Anyway, feel free to message me if you have any questions :-) Xavexgoem (talk) 03:40, 13 July 2008 (UTC) Actually, the simplified ruleset is nicely printable :-) Xavexgoem (talk) 03:45, 13 July 2008 (UTC) Diff postings on AIVHi, re: the postings on AIV, they're generated by Huggle after a level 4 warning.

Eric VioletteFirst I ask you how many other singing pirates in television commercials have had such a rush of people attempting to write about him? I say Eric Violette is on par with the likes of "The Burger King" in his notability within the television realm. Not only does "The Burger King" have an article, he's even getting a feature length movie of his own. I have different arguments on behalf of Monseiur Violette but I shall present them one at a time.

Spelling correction mishapHi there. Thanks for stopping by Automotive lighting to fix such spelling errors as "whereever" and "alligning". Your edit also changed every instance of "signalling" to "signaling". Neither is incorrect, but the double-L variant is generally preferred in international English while the single-L is oftener found in American English; because this article is written in international English, not only does WP:ENGVAR prefer that we leave the double-L, but an important reference (Regulation 48; scroll down to find it so you needn't yank down the whole PDF) uses the double-L spelling. I've changed "signaling" back to "signalling", but I wanted to let you know I do appreciate your efforts to clean up the genuine errors in the article. —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 20:04, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
John Birch Society PageHey Mb--thanks for getting involved. Before I got into this mess I thought *I* was third party (you can see from my handle-less-ness that I'm generally a pretty casual wiki user). Anyway, I might have gotten carried away but I don't think I'm the problem. If you read the talk page over there it seems like that one guy is holding the page hostage to an intro that cites only the JBS website (which is obviously not good wiki policy). Thanks again for helping out! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.199.22.152 (talk) 19:17, 13 July 2008 (UTC) oops forgot to sign, although you seem to have taken care of it for me... 151.199.22.152 (talk) 19:19, 13 July 2008 (UTC) Non-sectionedThank you for all the typo fixing on the weapons catalog, Im surprised the spellbot missed them all.

Thank you for letting me know, Badagnani (talk) 05:40, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
WikiProject Stargatejewelery typo fixingWhen doing these, please pay attention to whether the article uses American or British English. For instance, in Hip hop fashion, the correct way to fix it would have been jewelry (American), not jewellery (British).

Spelling noticeNot sure if this was done with some automated script, but a recent edit changed "revalued" to "reevalued" in the article Domitian. The word is most definitely "revalue" however. When the exchange rate of a currency is revised upwards, it is called a "revaluation". Just thought I'd let you know.--Steerpike (talk) 09:45, 31 July 2008 (UTC) Problems with AWBThe bot changed spelling inside a quotation and broke the name of an image so that it no longer appeared at Mary Shelley.

I could certainly use your help as I'm starting to lose it with this guy, though I'm unsure how you intend to divert him? He knew earlier that his "edits" will be immediately removed, but wasn't exactly discouraged. He may go away for a few days and come back to insult people and disrupt again. Oh, and don't think you can "sway" him with actual arguments and Wikipedia policy, I tried that, all it did was cost me nerves :( --DIREKTOR (TALK) 01:42, 9 August 2008 (UTC) Argentine/Argentinian/ArgentineanThat's a great question that you asked about when to use which word. Basically, Argentine is the standard and most common demonym (also called denizen label) and adjective in the English language for someone/something from Argentina. Argentine is about 7 times more common than Argentinian and about 9 times more common than Argentinean. The grammar, usage, and style guide Garner's Modern American Usage (by Bryan A. Garner) gives Argentine as the standard and Argentinian as the variant, but it doesn't list Argentinean at all. This would indicate that it's deemed as the least desirable of the different forms.

Speedy deletion tagsHi, just so you're aware, CSD G4 should be used only when the article in question was previously deleted via AFD. If it was previously speedy deleted, just use the CSD tag you would have used if you had never seen the article before. Cheers! J.delanoygabsadds 23:32, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

G4 tagAs J.delanoy has already warned you above, please stop using page has already been deleted as a deletion reason. CSD G4 only applies to recreation of material which is substantially identical to material deleted via the AFD process. – iridescent 00:40, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

I haven't looked at the specific instances that you're changing, but this seems to be regional spelling/usage (analogous to British/American spellings) -- see [2].

sq km vs km2Hi, I've noticed you're (correctly) making changes such as sq km to km2. However, I have also noticed that you're using the unicode character for the 2.

A wiki page I made was unfairly deleted by you, sirI made a page for "Stan Burdman," a famous radio dj, political commentator, comedian, and video game reviewer. It took me a while to research and remember all the stuff Stan Burdman did, make external links to Stan's work, and then the page got deleted the second it went up. Almost like automatically. I don't understand, Stan Burdman is a fairly famous public figure and I would appreciate the page be brought back from the dead please.Braddj1977 (talk) 08:26, 13 August 2008 (UTC) Copyedits to direct quotes...should generally be avoided.
