My bad - you shouldn't have gotten the warning. for removing warning tags My apologies -- master_sonTalk - Edits 04:00, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA

  • Thanks for the support position. However, I've decided to withdraw my acceptance because of real WP:CIVIL concerns. I will try again later when I've proven to myself and others that my anger will no longer interfere with my abilities as a Wikipedia editor. Thanks again, and I'll see you around here shortly. :) JuJube 04:25, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

For the revert to my userpage just then. J Milburn 22:09, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Football edit conflict

Sorry for reverting your revert on Football - I was trying to undo an anon's page blanking ("soccer sucks") by rv'ing to their previous edit. But then I edited conflicted with you, who rightly undid their previous three edits (which I didn't catch..). Long story short: the result was I undid your reversion. Not my intention. Sorry.  :) 132.205.67.135 22:22, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. :) Acalamari 23:03, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On blocking user "216.125.42.135" from editing

Wimt, thanks for notifying "216.125.42.135" of his various attempts at vandalism to my user page and various other Wikipedia entries. I'm an ardent Wikipedia supporter and want to make this an even more awesome place than it already is -- I have been notified by "216.125.42.135" that he intends to continue vandalizing Wikipedia because of a petty personal argument I had with him. Because of this, I would like to request that "216.125.42.135" be blocked from editing. Dylan Knight Rogers 01:14, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Thanks for reverting the vandalism from my user page yesterday. --Ann Stouter 18:24, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Revert AGF on Treasure of Delta College by 80.134.197.248

Hi Wimt. Could you please tell me how page blanking can be considered an AGF edit? I am with CVU and in most cases, we consider page blanking as Vandalism. Could you let me know whether you meant to tag it as a Good Faith edit, since I warned the IP as I did not consider it so. Thanks! Thor Malmjursson 22:41, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey - yeah I totally agree with you that blanking is almost always an editing test or vandalism and so certainly wouldn't merit the assumption of good faith. However, you will note in the case of Treasure of Delta College, it was made by one editor and then tagged for speedy deletion. An anon IP then came along and then blanked the page. In cases such as these, I tend to assume good faith because the anons are often trying to delete the article (as the tag states) but obviously going about it in all the wrong ways. Of course, I may have been wrong in that case as I see you have since given the anon a warning for spamming. Hope that explains my choice of edit summary. Regards. Will (aka Wimt) 22:46, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's chill, Will. Thanks - I added the CSD G11 to the article cause it looked like it was advertising some sort of event, which I believe it was. Some IP's can try and be helpful, but I wish they would use the edit summary like everyone (or near everyone) else does! Thanks again. Thor Malmjursson 22:51, 5 April 2007 (UTC) (aka Thor). (talk to me)[reply]
Agreed - things would be much easier if everyone used the edit summary. But, unless there's a decision taken to enforce using the summary, I guess we'll be guessing the motives of IPs for some time into the future! Will (aka Wimt) 22:54, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and thanks for adding that unsigned template, by the way. Saved me some effort :-) Will (aka Wimt) 22:55, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And this proves what exactly? I never stated the User:Pernambuco wasn't a sock. Will (aka Wimt) 13:40, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You see, Mauco used that sock and other 3, with months before, pretending that are not the same person. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 130.226.169.133 (talk) 13:48, 9 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]
OK, do you support us to ask a pernam ban for Mauco?
He currently has a two month ban and I see no reason to doubt that this was a careful and appropriate decision so I don't think the ban should be extended at this time unless other evidence is presented to the appropriate locations. Will (aka Wimt) 13:56, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks! Actually I just found an evading sock of him, similar edits related to his loved subject: Transnistria. Unfortunatelly I can't edit on his user page. Can you do it please? Add {{sockpuppet|William Mauco}}

Last sock of Mauco, evading the block

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=block&page=User:M-renewal

Similar edits, pro-sepparatist, pro-PMR, pro-Transnistrian edits as his 3 socks that you blocked them. Evadation of block again.

{{vandal|M-renewal}}


No, as I have already stated I do not know the evidence and I am not adding a suspected sock puppet tag to anyone's user page. As I stated on your talk page, if you want to present your evidence you should do so at Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets and stop trying to tag users at this time.

Help

Hello, I need help with something. I've been trying to revert vandalism for a while now (a few months), and I've been able to do so fairly easily, but it is hard at times, could you point me to where there are tools to make fighting vandalism easier? Brain40 [talk] [contributions]

—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.8.80.113 (talk) 00:25, 11 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Hey. The article in question, LopezFilms Ltd., was deleted under CSD A7. That is to say an article about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject. There was also a brief discussion about it here. What this means is that your article featured no assertion (or supporting independent sources) that the subject is sufficiently notable for Wikipedia. To get an idea about what is and what isn't a suitable subject, try looking at WP:CORP. Judging from the fact that this company has next to no google hits, my personal opinion is that it is probably too soon to write a Wikipedia article about it. If, in the future, it becomes sufficiently notable to warrant an article, feel free to write one then. I hope that you will continue contributing to Wikipedia, and not be put off by this deletion. Regards. Will (aka Wimt) 02:10, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please read the page before you decide if it was an "experiment" or not.

Vandalism at Royal Grammar School, Newcastle by User:88.107.112.215

About three minutes after you issued a final warning template to this user, they made an additional vandalism edit which I've reported here. Thought you might like to be told, since you posted the two most recent warnings. Thanks, Tyrhinis 16:46, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey - yeah I saw your thread at WP:ANI and replied to it. Quickest way to request a blocking if it's a simple case of vandalising after a final warning is to report to WP:AIV as there are often a number of admins patrolling this. The IP has now been blocked by Kuru for 48 hours. I notice that you're using Twinkle - you can actually make AIV reports with that using the "report IP" button. Hope that helps. Keep up the good work! Will (aka Wimt) 16:50, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
