Thanks
Hey Sn0wflake, great to see someone appreciating the work I've done. :D Yeah, some of the metal music sections are very sparse at the moment so I'm definitely looking to add some stuff to them. Midness 15:25, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Offended? LOL, I seriously doubt you could offend me if you tried. Then again, come to think of it, I'm offended you might think I'm offended by such an inoffensive comment :) -- Rick Block (talk) 19:45, July 28, 2005 (UTC)

Heavy metal genrebox
User Sam Spade is attempting to change the heavy metal genrebox again. Please once again discuss the issue with him. Andros 1337 00:08, 29 July 2005 (UTC)


 * I replied @ User_talk:Sam_Spade, and will say again here that I appreciate your compromising tone, and as far as I am concerned our past dissodence is forgiven and forgotten. If your RfA was today, I would at worst abstain. You have a clean slate as far as I am concerned. ¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸ 01:26, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Sn0wflake, I hereby award you the Working Man's Barnstar for your hard work wikifying, cleaning up, categorizing, and doing other tedious work that we really need around here. I really appreciate your hard work. Thanks! &mdash; Stevey7788 (talk) 23:12, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Opeth Fix
Why did you revert the spacing I did for the Opeth albums? If three of them have dashes between the album title and the year, why not all of them?

PS, as a new member, i'm using this because it seems like it's purpose is for communication between the various editors. If it's not, show me how I should do it and I'll apologize. (User:TuckerIsGod)

User E tac
User:E tac seems to enjoy vandalizing wikipedia articles, especially Slayer, Symphony X and Megadeth, but some others too. I've warned him in his talk page but it seems it wasn't enough. Should he be banned? I haven't found the place where to report users for this behavior, so I thought about posting it here since you're an admin and have reverted at least one of his vandalisms... You can reply me here since I have put this page on my watchlist Rbarreira 13:27, 5 August 2005 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply on my talk page, I hope your action towards the user works :) Sorry about the "heated" message I left on his talk page, I mainly did it because I couldn't find the page where to report vandals (thanks for telling me that too) and he was starting to seriously piss me off. Regards - Rbarreira 01:03, 6 August 2005 (UTC)

Well, it seems that your warning wasn't enough, he's still vandalizing wikipedia pages... Regards - Rbarreira 12:49, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

In RE: "Warning"
Removed your message from my discussion page, as it made no sense, is self-contradictory, and meaningless. If "civil discussion" is your modus operandi, why did you revert my edit on the Tiamat band page to your version, which was rife with spelling and grammar errors, as well as factual inaccuracies (without bringing it to the discussion board first)? Danteferno 16:08, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Issue resolved. -- Sn0wflake

New Pages
Hey, I was wondering if you could tell me what non-admin do with new pages which have been created for pure vandalism, or are blank? Should we add a template, or add them to a list somewhere? Thank you --  Fire Fox  14:27, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

I don't think the page as you left it is actually a disambiguation page; see my edit summary.

Le noir faineant
Hmmm... it would probably be a surprise to an innocent reader if they find themselves redirected to Richard I with no explanation. I'll add the pseudonym to the Ivanhoe reference in the article, although that's still not immediately obvious (see the project's instructions). That's not much better than the original stub. What do you think? David Brooks 04:01, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, it would probably be better as a redirect to Ivanhoe. But hardly worth bothering with either way. David Brooks 05:22, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Archive Indexer
Hey! Just wanted to show you the C++ program I did over the weekend. It takes a formatted archive (in this case Categories for Delete) and transforms it via regexs into indices sorted alphabetically and chronologically. This was partly (e.g. just alphabetically) done before, however it hadn't been maintained for several months. The lists are over at
 * Alphabetical: Categories_for_deletion/Archive_debates/2005_July_index
 * Chronological: Categories_for_deletion/Archive_debates/2005_July_index_by_date

Possible linkspam
Hi Sn0wflake,

Could you please check this: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=66.68.135.143

The linked site isn't very great, but I guess one link on one of the article pages would be acceptable. However the anon user has added the link to multiple pages and at the top of other links (is there a policy on this?). Is this a linkspam and what should be done?Tkalayci 21:13, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Speedy deletion reminder
I agree with your argument that directly converted PNGs of JPEG originals are useless. Not because they look worse (they look exactly the same), but because they take more space.Sometimes, however, you want to use a graphic that would have been perfect for PNG, but all you have access to is a JPEG version. Some editors then clean up the JPEG artifacts and store the result as PNG, which may well look better and use less space than the source JPEG. In those cases, you do want to keep the PNG.

(from the robchurch RfA) - > You were not promoted because you have close to no experience and interaction on the project, that's it.

About my RfA
Hi Mark. You chose to abstain on my RfA, but I appreciate the fact that you made your concerns public and chose to take my side on a few of the issues. I just would like to assure you that I will still work my best on Wikipedia, in order to prove wrong any fears you may still have about me. I also hope this hasn’t put you in a bad position towards Silsor. Best regards, Sam Hocevar 08:55, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Hey there! I put up an RfC on the Antineopian link thing for Neopets, but there doesn't seem to be anyone looking at it.... Could you please check and see if I made a mistake or put it in the wrong place? Thanks if you do! :) AySz88 ^ -  ^  00:55, September 6, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks
I hope I am not out of line in adding a self-protective forward to this mini-discussion. My birth name is Steve Espinola and I edit on Wikipedia under the name Sojambi Pinola. In 2005 an internet troll deliberately picked my birth name when he vandalized hundreds of wikipedia pages. Unfortunately, when my name is googled, Wikipedia complaints about this fake "Steve Espinola" still come up, and I still hear about it as a result. So...for the record....the real Steve Espinola didn't commit the crimes. Sojambi Pinola (talk) 00:00, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for correcting falacious and slanderous vandalism to my talk page. I honestly do not know what to do about Steve espinola :-/ All I did was revert several hundred of his vandalisms to the cleanup process about a month ago and now he's just outright attacking me. Is there a way to limit him — only — from editing my page or is this not possible in the site's current implementation? — HopeSeekr of xMule (Talk) 16:27, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
 * I just realized that you apparently blocked him for 48 hours. THIS IS NOT ENOUGH!! This guy has been vandalising every thing willmcw, myself, and a handful of others have edited for about a month.  He has been banned for a week prior, and all of his known (9 last time I counted) sockpuppets were deleted.  I simply do not believe 48 hours is enough and he has shown time and again that after administrative punitive actiosn his behavior further degrades, becoming more juvenille and sinister.  That said, I don't know what can be done short of blocking an entire IP range, but he seems so fanatical that even that would just unleash a killer (I hope he lives in another country :O — 16:41, 6 September 2005 (UTC)


 * FYI, I had previously placed an indefinite block on and  on account of being abusive and fraudulent sock puppets of . (Fraudulent because a different editor involved in his topic is named Steve Espinola IRL). I left Jonah Ayers unblocked because that was the least-misleading of his active accounts. The editor's newest account is . This editor really needs to use only one account, and it should be one that isn't misleading.  In any case, I'd appreciate another admin's involvement or perspective.

Recital
Your reversal caused a circular redirect. Clicking on Recital (music) just redirected back to Recital. Don't worry though, I reverted back to my last edit. I suggest that if you really want the article at Recital (music), you also change all the other articles (both present and future) which will link to Recital. -Acjelen 03:55, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

I don't think there needs to be a disambiguation page at all. I put the tag there in case someone insisted on mentioning other uses of the word. We can take it out. -Acjelen 04:07, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Planescape : Torment
Hi. I couldn't help noticing that you reverted my comment to Planescape: Torment saying that fan reactions to the novelization of the game have been heavily negative. The trouble is that they have, and that my phrasing was a very mild way of putting it. You can see why; in the game, it's vitally important and a large plot pointthat the Nameless One remains that way. If he eventually does learn his real name (that's never revealed to the player) it's in a very poignant scene towards the very end that essentially boosts him to demigod levels. In the book, his companions dub him "Thane" by the end of the third chapter.

You're hunting for vandalism, that's cool, but if take two doesn't cut it either I'd appreciate knowing why.

MailScanner delete
Hi Sn0wflake, you deleted the entry on MailScanner with the comment 'Notability not established.' I just wanted to let you know that mailscasnner is widely used (Protecting over 5 billion e-mails every week) and actively developed which is fairly obvious if you visit the projects home page: http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/ The main authour of the software Julian Field actually won the the UK's Unix & Open Systems User Group 2004 Award for MailScanner (see: http://www.ukuug.org/pr/osa2004-winner.html). Perhaps you will consider undeleting the article? i would like to contribute to it. Thanks Htaccess 00:05, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Seconding the above. MailScanner is heavily used within the IT field (as per the links above).  I also would like to be involved in the article.  Was there a VfD link on this?  Can you let me have a copy of the article as it was prior to delection? Thanks -- Mewcenary 13:42, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your reply on my talk page. Since posting my original comment, I obtained advice from the "Undeletion" page and subsequently created a new version of the article, and had the history restored.  Until I asked, I didn't know the extent of what the original content was (as it was only visible to admins).  Thanks for your time. -- Mewcenary 22:51, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

El Blockage
In my defence, can you really expect someone to lie back and take it when 3 hours of work are destroyed by someone who might as well be a vandal. They have not bothered to look at the history of the situation, they have done even bothered to defend their decison. It is even more infuriating when, afterwards, they decide that they were wrong in the first place.

It is not a "mistake", it is stupidity and idiocy. The wiktionay defintion of both words is exactly correct. There is no point, in my eyes, dressing that up. Deano 13:10, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

Category:Musician stubs
Most stub category pages function quite well without having to use a line for every other related stub, and while I can see the need for some text, the text is getting rather long here, which is why I tried shortening it somewhat. Let me explain the method behind my madness so that I can hopefully get you to agree. To repeat, the text there is getting too long and if the same parameters are followed as before, will continue to grow even longer. It needs trimming and I think my trim is reasonable. Caerwine 06:15, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
 * 1) The direct child categories all show up on the first page anyway, and if kept in the category text will need three more lines added for the three new child types: bowed-musician-stub, brass-musician-stub, and woodwind-musician-stub. I have added a line of text to indicate that one should use one or more of these subtypes, as appropriate.
 * 2) The children of band-stub don't really need to be mentioned here, so long as we make people aware that it has children.  While it would be more convienient if people stub bands directly, dedicated stub sorters should be aware of that, and the undedicated ones probably won;t read the notice anyway.  Furthermore, from what I've seen from by stub sotr of Musician stubs today, very few band stubs get misfiled here in the first place.
 * 3) Overpopulated category is a redirect to Verylarge, so all I did there was cut out the middleman.
 * 4) For categories with lists of people CatAZ is generally considered preferable to CategoryTOC.

Slipknot protection
Saw your comments on the recent update/reupdate/rereupdate... of the Slipknot page. While I'm more partial to the "alternative" tag, I agree with you that we're reaching the point where the article could do with protecting. It's not just the genre-altering. It seems that the band/page attract an awful lot of opinions and as a result it's probably the most-frequently defaced page I check regularly. IainP (talk) 17:42, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Banzo
Yes, I know. Never heard of it before, so I opened a diccionary. The discription seemed different from Saudade. And, it is not related to the Portuguese Culture, so it is "off-topic".
 * Banzo: processo psicológico causado pela desculturação, que levava negros africanos escravizados, transportados para terras distantes, a um estado inicial de forte excitação, seguido de ímpetos de destruição e depois de uma nostalgia profunda, que induzia à apatia, à ininação e ,por vezes, à loucura ou à morte. (Dicionário Houaiss da Língua Portuguesa)

If you read the description, and the article, you'll see that these are different things. It s interresting, as we all know very few of what these people went through... but it is unrelated. Saudade is not destructive or apatic (commonly, as a feeling everyone has different ways to express it). -Pedro 12:13, 19 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Eu dou enfâse a isto: seguido de ímpetos de destruição e depois de uma nostalgia profunda, que induzia à apatia, à ininação e, por vezes, à loucura ou à morte.

Parece que o Banzo é uma espécie de saudade extrema e não é a minha visão de saudade que é mais pacífica; ou seja, é mais um sofrimento interior que exterior (o banzo parece que tem muito de exteriorização de sentimentos de forma violenta). A verdade é que dizer: o que é rir?, o que é chorar?, o que é saudade? é muito complicado explicar esse tipo de coisas. Eu acho que o banzo deveria ir para um artigo sobre escravatura, já que muitas vezes não temos noção do que isso é, e de como as pessoas se sentiam e aí isso fazia diferença. A palavra parece de origem bantu / Angola. -Pedro 23:44, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Acho que é mesmo o melhor, dado que tem alguma relação, mas não é a mesma coisa. Abraço. -Pedro 15:09, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Cool about Suicide Methods
Hey, thanks for removing my addition - I didn't realize there was a consensus - Is there someway to note that somewhere so no-one else makes the same change I did? Also, are you going to remove it from the main suicide page too? Or did you just not want it repeated on too many suicide pages? Again, thanks. JG of Borg 19:22, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

Infobox band on Children of Bodom
Hey. I change the current_members to have all the members on one line with the between them. I don't know why, but then it worked again! Maybe a bug in mediawiki... Bye

Re: Members x Line-up
Then why does the Infobox_band list "Members" instead of "Line-up"... ;) HarryCane 12:46, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Thank You
Thank you for the comment. I'm afraid I'm not that new a user, but at least I didn't end up messing up the article. smurray  in   chester  (User), (Ho Ho Ho!) 10:49, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Dragonforce page edits
Hi there! I must disagree with you on the subject of the "similar bands to DragonForce" which you removed twice from the DragonForce page. Although I do realise that it is up to one's personal opinion if a band sounds like DragonForce, many listeners do indeed search for months, if not years, to find similar bands. I have experienced this frustrating search myself and as such I wish to share my knowledge with others, and those others WILL be looking on Wikipedia for similar bands. I thought I could perhaps create a new topic; something like "Bands similar to DragonForce" - the similarities within would be based upon close relation to genre which is NOT of opinion but is a question of genre. Besides the fact I searched for a long time to compile such a list, the fans of DragonForce need something like this to widen their musical horizons. Please let me know your thoughts on ways to include this information. Thanks. soulhunter123

List of fads
Please do not use/abuse your sysop privilages is order to war with me over an article - U mass reverted (without explanation) so I reverted it back - max rspct 20:59, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

You know what I mean - U made threats blah blah -max rspct 21:04, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

I think you should check your own civility - calling edits idiotic etc

How can you accuse me of being uncivil and threatened me with a block. You wrote on my talkpage "Making idiotic assumptions is bad,.."

Yet you blocked User:Djr xi for saying this:

"Is "Place of origin" an acceptable compromise for the various putative idiots and non-idiots involved?"

I don't really see there is much difference/I think your being rather hypocrytical. You seem to be blocking folk that you disagree with over an article. - max rspct 15:50, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Please listen to yourself and may I remind you : No personal attacks -max rspct 21:12, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Re: DragonForce
Thanks for your reply! I have added a paragraph on the DragonForce talk page which states:

''I have, after being advised by Sn0wflake, removed my previous submissions about "Similar Bands" and instead have given informaton on Dragonforce's own self-glorifying genre, "Extreme Power Metal". This does seem to abide by NPOV rules as it is factual. Also the "Evolution of Sound" section was subject to vandalism, but as it stands currently, it is quite factual. If we cannot use even the slightest bit of description in articles then there won't be much information to go on Wikipedia! For example, saying they create a bombastic sound, as it states, is in my eyes acceptable as it is factual since Dragonforce are hardly melancholic. I do realise the rules of NPOV, however, and should this debate be carried on then so be it! However please do not outrightly revert the page as many small re-phrasing of sentences have been done by me to give the article a higher standard of English (eg. the image caption.) Thanks!'' --Soulhunter123, 13 December 2005
