For that revert. :) Acalamari 23:44, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Anytime, dear. No thanks needed. :o) Ariel ♥ Gold 23:46, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * There's something strange though; the account hasn't edited for months, and looking at the userpage and older edits, I see no indication that this person is a vandal. Compromised account possibly? Acalamari 23:49, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I wondered the same exact thing when I was looking into whether to use a template or not on the userpage. Due to the nature of the vandalism, I did decide to use the template, but I couldn't find anywhere that you'd run into the editor before, so found it odd they targeted you... Ariel ♥ Gold 23:54, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * The only time I saw vandalism like that was on this page a few minutes ago, which I have brought up for discussion on ANI. Acalamari 23:57, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Interesting. That would appear to tie the two together, looking at the vandalism to your page and this edit. So, perhaps this is a sleeper account? Just odd, because previously the account seemed to be focused mostly on vandalism fighting, not perpetrating... Ariel ♥ Gold 00:01, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I've brought this up for review on ANI as well. Acalamari 00:09, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, not that my opinions are worth much, but I did add my thoughts above to the ANI thread, just so it is clear you're not the only one who wondered about it. Ariel ♥ Gold 00:12, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hm, that's odd...I'd guess a family member, just a hunch. Love, Neran e i   (talk)  00:13, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * That's a possibility; I'll see what other users think about a block. Oh, and ArielGold, your opinions are very valuable, so don't worry. :) Acalamari 00:21, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Edit war
Thank you for getting back to me, its not the capitalization, its the break between the words (the two genres) User:Twsx wants the comma (like on the example, see here) and User:Scipo wants a line break

I have also looked on scipo's contributions, and he has been changing all the info boxes, and I (personal opinion) think he needs to be stopped (blocked from editing, not banned ;-p )

Cheers,  PhilB ~ T/<font color="#cccccc">C 20:52, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

p.s. I LOVE your user page/user talk page they look lovely!! XD
 * Hi Philip! Thanks for your kind words! And yeah, the change is doing both things though, removing the comma/line break, and removing/adding the capitalization. I would still suggest that you request the editors specifically come discuss the issue on the article talk page, and you could make a section on the talk page for the discussion, and that may go a long way to helping the editors work it out. Both ways seem valid to me, and an example isn't a hard and fast rule, but I'm also not one to edit musical bio pages, so I'm unfamiliar with how the majority of them are done. I'd say that requesting the members of WikiProject Music or Project Biographies, perhaps. I'm a member of the Biography project, but I mostly do academic bios, and haven't really worked on any musician bios except one, which ironically, uses the comma, but also has mixed non-capitalization of some genres, with capitalization of others... (note to self: look into guidelines)... Anyway, I do hope you can get it worked out, without having to give them warnings, or report to 3RR noticeboard, but those links are there for you on WP:EAR should you require them. Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Cheers! <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 21:00, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

 * ~*Giggle*~ You are more than welcome to stop by here any time you need assistance. If I'm not around (and normally up top, it will say I'm online, it says I'm sleeping now because I'm about to go to sleep, lol) someone else will quite likely stop by to help you, but I'll always answer once I'm awake. Good luck with that RfC, I'm not sure I have anything I could offer to clear things up, as it seems you've got a better idea of the scope of the problem, but just remember, if you get upset, get up, walk away, and count to ten. Then, use the preview button before hitting enter on a reply, and read it from the viewpoint of someone else, to be sure you don't come across in a way you don't intend. From what I see, you're an extremely kind and considerate editor, so I am sure that won't be a problem, but if you've not had a lot of experience with RfCs, they can occasionally get heated, and so a cool head is always a good idea.

 * Sorry to bother you (again) but I think that User:Navnløs is a sockpuppet of User:scipo is there a way of checking? Thanks Cuteness! <font color="#aaaaaa"> PhilB ~ <font color="#cccccc">T/<font color="#cccccc">C 22:55, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hrmm, at first glance, I doubt it. The areas of editing and activity, not to mention knowledge level don't seem related at all, and Navnløs just seems to have the same opinion of how the infobox should be. Sockpuppetry is a pretty serious claim, not one to be taken lightly, and in this case, I don't see a clear link that would back that up. Navnløs has a much longer, more diverse editing history, uploads images with proper licensing, so knows policy fairly well. Granted they both seem interested in the music area, but I don't think that's unusual. Did you ever let scipo know you'd filed an RfC for him? He really should be notified of that. For now, I'd just suggest a nice note to Navnløs, asking him to the talk page and explaining the reasons why the current WP:MUSTARD guideline says it should not be done the way that he's doing it. That's about all I can suggest. <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 23:05, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

So 'bye, sweetheart [lit. (good) soul]. Apparently I'll be blocked soon.... (signed) "Matan the Hunk". End translation. Note: "Matan" is commonly a male name meaning given/gift.

 * Yeah, that's what I came up with basically, although I missed the part about Islam, hrmm. Yes, Hunk still means "good looking man" (at least to me lol). There were some edits on this user's page that another editor translated as... well, not exactly nice, so I was wondering if I'd translated this correctly or not, lol.

Eilat calling...
Hi again! Found some better images of Eilat and a map on Wiki Commons. Now how do I go about 'importing' them into the article? Also, may I dump that  reference (2)? I really think it obfusticates more than it explains. I'll add a link to the Suez Crisis somewhere, as it gives a great deal of good geopolitical background. BTW, shouldn't someone at WikiMedia update this spell checker to include names like: Wiki, WikiMedia, Wikipedia, etc., etc., et al and so forth?? Buzzing off to bake something caloric and habit-forming during my 'night shift': last night pot roast, night before oatmeal squares, Friday morning banana-raisin-rum bread pudding! Good thing I can't send it over the Internet! Will be back soon, Shir-El too 00:33, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * LOL Yes, you'd think that the spell check would realize Wiki is not spelled wrong, hee hee. Images on commons are exactly the same as here, no need to change anything, just add [[Image:name.jpg|thumbnail|Your caption goes here.]] and they'll show up even if they're on commons. I don't recall what the [2] reference is, but if you don't think it works or helps, go ahead and dump it :) Too bad you can't send the goodies over the 'net, lol I'm finally getting my apetite back, ~*Giggle*~ (And hey don't know if you saw, but feel free to translate that Hebrew above if you want to) <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 00:35, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Time Help
Thanks :) The way I have that line setup is so the grey line splits between the top (with the time/date) and the bottom (with the userpage/talkpage links).  The VT Ribbon is supposed to go right in the middle.  For some reason over the past couple weeks, I have had to move it down the page ever so slightly.  I am not sure if it is because of the "donate" thing at the top or what, but I hope it doesn't look weird on other people's computers.

Is this appropriate for Wikipedia?
Hi Ariel!! I've come across a lovely glass-making technique called "sommerso"

http://www.artofvenice.com/art/glossary.html

http://www.glaskilian.de/Sommerso_Glas.43.0.html

that isn't mentioned here... but is this something proper for Wikipedia, or is it too...  artsy? If it would be ok, what sorts of references would be appropriate for an article request? Thanks!! :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.154.214.92 (talk) 06:24, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I believe, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is the same technique used in Murano glass, so I'd think the information about the technique itself could be added to that article, rather than make a whole new article. I wasn't able to find a whole lot of info about it, to build an entire article, but it would certainly help the Murano glass article's context. What do you think? <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 11:34, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

If YOU can't find much info, it must not be out there; it's sure better to have sommerso be part of the Murano article than not anywhere. Would "Colours, techniques and materials" be the right section... or should I just add the links, do you think? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.154.214.92 (talk)
 * Yeah, Sommerso is the technique used to make Murano glass, so I think that's appropriate. I think the first link (artofvenice) could be added to external links, but the second one probably not, as it is a sales site. I'll keep looking for more info though. :o) <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 12:33, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

 * has much more flexibility, with much less coding, it can sort into two or three columns, and it does the small references automatically.

Apropos cussing in a foreign language...
In the 60's three brash young Sabras went on a trip to England. They were impressed by everything, but especially by everyone's good manners, and in the manner of brash young men they decided to have some fun. They walked up to a man standing at a street corner: "Excuse me, sir. Can you tell us where Kxx Oxxxxk Street is?" (your sister's... in Arabic; at that time the juiciest vocabulary). Without batting an eyelid the Englishman replied: "Yes, of course. You go down this street till you come to Kxx Exxxk Street, then you turn left onto Naal Axxx Lane..." and for the next 4 minutes proceeded to take them on a guided tour of Arabic invective and their personal geniologies that left them red in the face and speechless. At the end of his little lecture he politely tipped his hat and concluded: "Gentlemen: never take an Englishman for granted. I served for 29 years as a Sargent-Major in the Palestine Police Force!"

Proposed template: Smiley!
I was wondering if would be a good idea, e.g:

and

would give

I was thinking about including something like this: so it only showed up in the User and User talk namespaces, it would need a bit of work doing!

What do you reckon? <font color="#aaaaaa"> PhilB ~ <font color="#cccccc">T/<font color="#cccccc">C 14:37, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Something like this already exists, actually, code . (Link: User:Hersfold/Emoticon. Additionally, there is the template, but I think these things should be used sparingly, as not everyone appreciates smile boxes, or even graphic smileys. When used, they shouldn't be as big as the ones above, as that causes the text line spacing to be off. <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold  15:02, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Hi Kaeso! And thanks for the compliments, although much of it was inspired by my dear friend Phaedriel. As for the template, yes you can change the colors, here are the variables and how you'd format them:


 * Using that code, then choose your colors from this color chart, (the ones in that box are my own colors that I use for my box) and you can change the background and border colors.

Need picture edit...
Ariel Dear: I took to heart that comment that there weren't any pix of Eilat itself and found 3 that could give a panorama - of sorts. This, the middle one, has too much parking lot in the foreground.
 * Would you call in your cohorts and see if they can crop the lower 1/4 of the pix? There's a program on the Commons to do it, but I'm just too tired to learn how.
 * Also, is there any way to line up three pix abreast, Left-Center-Right?
 * And the map should be opposite the municipal shield, but then it runs into the Table of Contents. Thanks muchly for cohorting! Shir-El too 03:18, 8 November 2007 (UTC) Good Night/Morning!
 * I could edit it that picture in Photoshop. But remember, an image should be used not for decoration, but to illustrate a specific item that the text otherwise cannot sufficiently explain. I don't think this image really gives the reader any greater understanding than the already existent images. The infobox image, the Darb el Hajj image, North Beach, and the airport image (although the quality on that one is icky) are all sufficient to illustrate the general city itself, and the rest of them illustrate specific items of interest. Do you really have your heart set on this image here, the parking lot one? I don't think it really does the city justice, personally, and the article is now if anything, a bit too image heavy. I would probably lose the airport one, and move the Queen of Sheba Hilton image up to its place, if it were me. As for what side of the page, the manual of style recommends right-alignment, or staggered images. Staggering left/right/left images is a challenge though, especially with shorter articles, as there are display issues with left-aligned images for some users who have low resolutions or large fonts, especially when they're placed underneath sub headers. Lining images up like Left/Center/Right is done via galleries, but galleries are discouraged in most cases. It really is not important for the map and the city's crest to be opposite one another, they are still illustrating the items they are meant to. If anything, I'd move the map above the city crest, as for the reader unfamiliar with the subject, where the city is located, is important, but the crest doesn't give any context to the reader, and they most likely aren't going to give it a second thought unless they live there. Now, realize all this is just my opinion, and thoughts about layout per the manual of style, so feel free to discount anything you wish. <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 03:32, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Gallery, perhaps?

 * You're right about this individual image (and too many images, too), but its the center of a trio that pans SW-W-NW and together shows the North Beach, Marina, city, Airport and hotel area. If I knew how I'd line up all 3 in a gallery mid-article and get rid of some of the others. (That Darb el Hajj is a peach, isn't it? It gives the feel of the desert, with the sea beckoning.)
 * I agree about the Map too, and would have done it except I was afraid it wasn't quite according to Hoyle.
 * What say we try both and see if we can get away with it? The Guidelines and Manuals emphasize that they are not written in stone... and this really is to further the article, NOT just to play around with images.

You don't need to qualify your recommendations with "Now, realize all this is just my opinion, and thoughts about layout per the manual of style, so feel free to discount anything you wish." B.S. You are an experienced editor and general maven and nice lady and I'd be a royal A.H. not to recognize all of it! ESPECIALLY when I'm coming to you for help! What kind of a crumb would that make me? Got to run. BTW is there some kind of an infobox for "Be Bold"? Be back as soon as I can, and always Muchisimas Gracias, Shir-El too 16:12, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * LOL I adore you, you know that right? You are just a breath of fresh air! Yes, you're right, nothing is written in stone. :o) And I didn't realize this was a combined panorama thingie. Let me look again at the page, we could do a gallery, but galleries are 4 wide, so we'd have to make it only 3 wide. I'll look at it again. Can we get rid of the airport picture? lol. ~*Hugs*~ <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 16:17, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * So long as I'm not a whiff ...;) Airport picture? "Take it away!" Queen of Sheba Hilton is out along with North Beach: too touristy, and looks like any resort. (!) If the gallery absolutely needs 4 images there's an available bookend: image of sandstone rock formation I caption: Nature's art gallery. BTW I looked up The Andrews Sisters after watching Murder, She Wrote - The Great Comeback of 1965 and got an eyeful: I'd always liked them in an off-hand sort of way... but talk about Women Innovators! Those geese are very worth a gander! G'Night again, Shir-El too 02:08, 9 November 2007 (UTC) PS Old rule of survival say: know what rules are before breaking them. You know the rules; can I shave them?
 * Galleries don't need four, but they fit four to a row, that's all. Shave away, lol. The images are there to improve the article, if you can do that by removing or adding images, that's great! <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 02:22, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

It is the same thing with XfDs, to just say you think something should be kept or deleted doesn't help, but to provide explanations, and diffs, and illustrations, that is helpful. Granted, I could be wrong, and maybe Deskana and Raul and Cecropia hate closing RfAs where I've offered an opinion, but I think that it is helpful to know why I choose to offer an opinion, be it support or oppose, or neutral.

Sock case you handled
Hiya dear, I was wondering if you would look into this new username, which I believe is a sockpuppet that you've dealt with before. User talk:MoreGunsInSchools, if you recall, had an RFCN for the username, and created the name User:Every Child Should Carry A Gun! to influence the discussion. MoreGunsInSchools's contributions were focused on the article Frank Lasee, and now a new editor pops up, User:NoMoreGunsInSchoolz on the same article. I think it is a pretty safe bet that this is another sockpuppet of that user, so since you were the one that handled the issue earlier, I figured I'd bring this to you, so you could take any actions you see fit.

I was curious...
... upon seeing that Requests_for_adminship/ArielGold does not exist. My guess was that you had asked not to be nominated, but I'm too lazy to read through archives (that, and I really should be studying for my calculus midterm). That being said, if that is *not* the case, I would be more than willing to nom you. Let me know. Xiong Chiamiov  :: contact ::  21:51, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey Xiong! Thanks for your note. You are correct that the page doesn't exist, but you're also correct in guessing that among my messy archives are several discussions about it [[Image:Face-wink.svg|20px]]. I didn't really ask to not be nominated, but just figured that while I've been registered for over two years, I lurked for a long time prior to jumping in to editing, and I thought that it might be best to wait for a bit due to the "lopsided" nature of my editing history. Suffice it to say, I'm thinking about it. Thanks for your encouragement! <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 21:55, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
 * *cough* Any idea when your thoughts might lead to action? ;) -- Flyguy649 talk 00:22, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Why, Flyguy, my dearest, have you not ever looked up procrastination in the dictionary? It has my picture there! ~*Giggle*~ Seriously, ugh I don't know. I'm so very sad that Phaedriel is not here, as she wanted to be the one to nominate me, and I very much wanted that as well. I've dropped her an email, and I'm praying and hoping for a reply. <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 00:24, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yours too? Well, I originally declined an RfA in June or July because I wanted to finish my thesis first -- I thought it would take two weeks. I'm almost done it now! And Phaedriel is certainly missed. Hopefully she'll come back soon. -- Flyguy649 talk 00:29, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello! grr vandals...
Hi, can I just get you to give this guy a warning on his talk page? I warned him about this, and got this in return... I was thinking Template:uw-npa3 ty He also did this <font color="#aaaaaa"> PhilB ~ <font color="#cccccc">T/<font color="#cccccc">C 14:24, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, that was two days ago, on the 8th, and he got two warnings, he hasn't done anything since. I'd just shrug it off. If you're doing recent changes patrol, you'll get plenty of nonconstructive edits done to your pages, just revert, and warn. Would you like to read my essay on Recent Changes patrol to get more information about it? You can find it here if you want to (I'm not sure if you've read it or not). You did a good job, in situations like that, just stick to template notices, and watch to see if the person repeats it. I think you handled it well! <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold  17:16, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

RE: Seeing me

Ustaša
..is an archaic word for "rebel". Today it only means -- Ustaša! --<font color="#003399">TheFE ARgod  (Ч) 18:26, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Regardless, doing something like this is not helpful, as I mentioned, I would really encourage you to stop placing banners like that, and use the template. You can not just edit another editor's userpage because you are personally offended by the name. Leave a usernameconcern, allow them time to respond, and then take it to WP:RFCN for discussion, that is the proper way to handle it, not by tagging their page with a Nazi banner.

Checking it
Got it working it. Can get me same as yesterday too. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 18:50, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

 * That one is in particularly bad shape, lol. Spacing issues, naked URLs in article space, they should all be put into refs, IMO.

Thanks Ariel Gold for your kind comments. I very much admire your ability to assume good faith above and beyond the call of duty, and you know what, I think it might actually be the best approach. I admit that I came on here tonight and my early edits were unquestionable vandalism, but now as a result of your faith in me I am left wanting to make a positive contribution to this site; a site from which I have acquired much knowledge in the past. Thanks and keep up the good work! --79.72.6.65 02:34, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm really, very glad to hear that. I do hope you'll review the guidelines and policies, and while I realize that there are a lot of them (heck, I still find new ones!), just some basics is all that is needed at first, and really, when you think of the project, I mean, this is a repository of knowledge, for the future, what a wonderful thing to contribute to! I think that's just a really spiffy thing to be involved in.

One more thing...
Of course, the thing I didn't mention when responding to your last post on my talk page was that I had to rollback those edits and block those accounts all on dial-up. :) Acalamari 19:36, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * ROFL! Oh poor Acalamari. I do feel for you, truly. If you ever have to do mass rollbacks, and want a helping hand with them, let me know, I can start from the bottom and we can meet in the middle, lol. Would probably go faster that way. I've had a few times when mass rollbacks were needed, I remember one SPA that spammed over 200 articles with the same URLs and self-published book as a ref, and they all had to be rolled back, oy! lol. Holler if you ever want a hand with something like that! <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 19:40, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah, I'm all right. :) Anyway, the advantage satellite and dial-up have is that they are slow enough for you to go into a contributions log, and press "rollback" on several pages very quickly. :) The pages don't even need to be fully loaded for the rollbacks to be successful.

Response
I use Lupin's anti-vandal tool. When I use it, I get large lists of vandal and mistaken vandal edits. That night, I was getting any edits. No mistaken or real vandal edits. I guess things are different on IRC. I'll try a tool that links to IRC for a reference now. --EoL talk 01:03, 12 November 2007 (UTC) I also noticed another editor said the same thing I did here. --EoL talk 01:05, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, yeah Lupin's is not the best way to tell what is vandalism and what isn't at a glance, the IRC feed is a lot better to figure out activity for the level, for sure. There are a number of other tools, but just straight IRC monitoring works well to figure out what the levels are.

IP
I am correcting the issues the tags were about —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.98.80 (talk) 04:36, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No, you are removing mass amounts of content, and the three tags, references, in universe, and plot. You did not improve the references, you did not alter the text to fix the in-universe issues, and removed over half the article's content. As I explained on your talk page, you should discuss mass removals of information with other editors on the article's talk page, before making such drastic changes. I realize you're addressing the long plot issue, but to blank out the majority of the plot, is probably not the best way to go about it. A better way would be to summarize, paraphrase, and condense the section, so that the context remains. Thanks. <font color="8B00FF">Ariel <font color="F64A8A">♥ <font color="007FFF">Gold 04:40, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * the existing plot summary is a condensed version of what i removed, second the claims of inuniverse can only apply to what i removed as for unreferenced this appears to be from a much earlier version of the article and all the major claims like the movie adaption are now reference just noone bothered to remove it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.98.80 (talk) 05:17, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
