User talk:B&W Anime Fan/Archive 2


 * There are noticeboards where you can request administrator intervention in the event of vandalism, personal attacks, violations of 3RR or ArbCom rulings, but there is such thing as a block request page. --  Netsnipe  ►  17:09, 4 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Regarding that point, see Verifiability. —Centrx→talk &bull; 15:51, 4 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I thought it was to request for someone to be blocked. That's what it says.  On the blocking policy page it says where you can "issue block requests"
 * You can request that someone be blocked for vandalism and similar disruption. Removing unsourced statements is not vandalism. A content dispute is not vandalism. The proper avenue for resolving it is the article talk page and the dispute resolution process. —Centrx→talk &bull; 04:40, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Your RfA
Please withdraw your RfA. There is no chance this will pass with your recent block. If you are serious about wanting to become an admin I suggest you ask for an editor review and work from there. Thank you, Gwernol 22:43, 25 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I have now closed your RfA as it was clearly failing and little purpose was being served by its continuation. In addition to Gwernol's suggestion above, I would recommend reading Guide to requests for adminship before you run again. I would advise, however, waiting several months before you do this in order to demonstrate that you have learned from your experience this time round. I know this can be a tough process, but I think it is one you can use to better your contributions to Wikipedia. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have. Yours, Rje 23:58, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Warnings
Do not warn other users for "vandalism" for clearly good-faith edits. Read Vandalism. —Centrx→talk &bull; 15:39, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Do I honestly have to keep every warning I ever got. I mean come on. Those are old warnings from a while ago. Some are from months ago!--B&amp;W Anime Fan 16:36, 26 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You should archive them Gwernol 16:37, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

How do you archive them?--B&amp;W Anime Fan 16:39, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Follow the instructions at WP:ARCHIVE - which is the link in my comment above. Gwernol 16:40, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Oh my god, it's so damn complicated!--B&amp;W Anime Fan 16:47, 26 September 2006 (UTC)


 * If you find that complicated, then you are still a long way from being ready to be an admin, I'm afraid. Its actually a pretty simple procedure:


 * 1) Add a link at the top of this page for the archive, say: /Archive 1
 * 2) Select the text you want to archive from this page and cut it
 * 3) Click on the link to /Archive 1
 * 4) Paste the text into the new page
 * That's it. You can get more fancy by adding the tag to the top if you like. Gwernol 17:10, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

How do you cut? I tried to copy it all, but I don't know where it went.--B&amp;W Anime Fan 17:17, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * It depends what operating system and web browser you are using. Generally there will be an Edit menu at the top of your web browser window. If you click on that you should see the Cut menu item. The keyboard shortcut Ctrl-X may also work. Gwernol 17:21, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

I just can't get anything to work!--B&amp;W Anime Fan 17:25, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

I've done it for you. Gwernol 17:52, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Long term abuse/Willy on Wheels
Regarding this page: This page was removed due to a deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Long term abuse/Willy on Wheels 2. This page has continued to be recreated, and I speedy deleted it under the repost provision of the Speedy Deletion policy (WP:CSD). As this page has been a target for recreated posting, I protected it from further recreations. This was primarly proceedural, and I don't have strong feelings one way or the other for LTA pages. You can dispute the MFD results at Deletion Review if you wish. Thanks, — xaosflux  Talk  00:57, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Your edits to User:Jimbo Wales
Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to User:Jimbo Wales. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. -- Pakaran 18:18, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to Bugs Bunny, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Gwernol 19:36, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for vandalizing Wikipedia. If you wish to make useful contributions, you are welcome to come back after the block expires.

My blocks
You do no my blocks never expire. It is a pain in the ass to unblock me. That is because my username has an & in it.--B&amp;W Anime Fan 16:19, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Sazae-san
I've added the image to the Sazae-san article. The easiest way to add an image is to add:



I've used a slightly more complex version to align it on the right of the article. Good luck, Gwernol 13:45, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Disputes
See Resolving disputes. Rather than reverting and accusing people of vandalism, you should discuss the matter at Talk:Nicktropolis. Timary has explained why he removed it. —Centrx→talk &bull; 17:49, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Pearls Before Swine
Do not re-add the full strip you keep putting in to the article. It violates Stephen Pastis' copyright (we only post samples of strips, not all of them) and also mucks up the formatting of the page, as the current image illustrates the strip perfectly. Thank you. Nate 00:26, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Doraemon User Template
I'm sorry to tell you that the Doraemon user template has to be reverted to just text because copyrighted images are not allowed in userboxes, like you just did recently by putting a copyrighted Doraemon image. Bear that in mind because it is Wikipedia policy. - 上村七美 | talk 14:57, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
