Refactoring comments
Refactoring of others comments is only allowed in a very limited set of circumstances. Your removal of a portion of Dream Focus's comments on User talk:Androzaniamy is not within that set of circumstances, so I restored her comments. Please do not remove comments without a good reason, also when you do refactor you should explain exactly why you are refactoring. Thanks. GB fan 18:38, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I refactored his comment because Dream Focus was giving her bad advice again. In an attempt to help her, I removed those comments but, I'm not responding to Dream Focus or that thread anymore because because I do not wish to be involved in WP:BATTLEFIELD.— cyberpower  Prattle Online  19:53, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Your opinion of bad advice is not a reason to refactor someone's comment. About the only reason you should be refactoring anyone's comments is if it is a personal attack.  GB fan 20:11, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Got it. I will remember that for next time.— cyberpower  Speak Online  20:12, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

A tip
When an admin asks you not to continue to post on a blocked user's talk page, the next thing you do shouldn't be to immediately post again on the blocked user's talk page. If you want to continue the conversation with the admin, go to his talk page to continue it. 28bytes (talk) 00:52, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Got it.— cyberpower Gossip Online  00:54, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks. And I want to commend you on your receptive attitude here and in the threads above to other people's comments. 28bytes (talk) 01:14, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Concerning Vandalism information Template
Hello, Cyberpower678! Thank you for updating the Vandalism information template. However the what you updated it to is incorrect. When you login into Huggle, the edits and reverts will be very high. Although it calms down after 15 seconds. Next time you wish to update the template, please wait about 15 seconds for it to calm down a bit on Huggle. Then as usual update the template accordingly. (This is a very common mistake, I made it when I first started using Huggle!) --Clarince63 (talk) 20:41, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I did wait 30 seconds until the numbers stayed consistent. The numbers may have dropped off after I updated.  I am writing a bot for this anyways as we speak.— cyberpower  Communicate Online  20:46, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Androzaniamy
Hi Cyberpower. I know you mean well, but can you please stop discussing at Androzaniamy's page? All it serves to do is extend the conversation, which she's not part of - which is adding a lot of noise. To be clear, I'm not asking you to de-watchlist the page, nor to stop offering advice, but rather to stop discussing other editors advice - Amy can make up her own mind and I'd rather be the editor who points out whether advice is problematic. If you have a problem with another editors advice, can you take it to said editor's talk page. Thank you. WormTT  &middot; &#32;(talk) 08:58, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I've already stopped discussing at that page because I feel that this discussion is turning into WP:BATTLEFIELD and I believe that it is Androzaniamy's choice to what she does on her page.— cyberpower Comment Offline  12:34, 18 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Also, WormTT is doing a fantastic job of adopting me and that's probably all the help I need - for now. I know you mean well but it's just a bit easier this way. I have been previously warned of Dream Focus and have taken that into account you can keep his/her messages up there for all I care. Androzaniamy (talk) 19:37, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It's your choice how you set your future her on Wikipedia. I just encourage not to pay too much attention to Dream Focus.  Most important be sure to follow Worm's instructions during your mentorship and you should be fine.  Good luck in the future.— cyberpower  Confer Online  20:13, 18 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Androzaniamy (talk) 16:21, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Dream Focus isn't neccessarily 'bad'. He just has a way of doing things that isn't in line with community norm and I think it's fine to take what he says into consideration but for now it might be easier to just follow what WormTT has to say for the sake of keeping this less confusing.  Once Amy gets the hang of Wikipedia, she can explore alternative styles of participation and alternative ideas of what policies say and mean.  I think right now it's just important that she get her foundation before trying to understand and analyze those policies.  In the Air Force training enviroment, we have what is called a "Proficiency Code Key".  What we're aiming for right now is a 2b level for Amy which is "Can do most parts of the task, needs only help on the hardest parts.  Can determine step-by-step procedures for doing the task."  Dream Focus is trying to get Amy to work at the 4D level which involves abstract analyzation and formating hypothesis.  "Can do the complete task quickly and accurately.  Can tell or show others how to do the task.  Can predict, isolate, and resolve problems about the task."  Dream Focus isnt wrong about what he says, but he is trying to get Amy to think about policies on a level of critical review outside her capability for now.  I think he is just concerned that we're going to bias her in the general community understanding of these policies and she's not going to be able to get her own take later and it's a valid concern.  I think the key here is to make sure that she becomes a productive non-disruptive editor before she starts exploring more liberal meanings to the policies and guidelines.--v/r - TP 20:36, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you very much. I always try to improve.  Right now I'm sorting out X!'s code to see what's been replaced and what's not.  I'm also developing User:Cyberbot II to handle a few new tasks and developing their respective user pages.  With luck if I find some tasks that need to be replaced, maybe the second BRFA for Cyberbot I will go better.  Anyways, it turns out Cyberbot I can still do somethings such as do the admin stats for the simple wiki as well as the datefix task as well.  Just need to submit a BRFA over there and get the bot started over there.  Wish me luck.— cyberpower  Chat Online  20:50, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Good luck! There are also some Meta and Commons tasks that might need to be done too such as the sandbox blanking.--v/r - TP 20:59, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I thought that task was deactivated. But Ok.  My bot can handle, don't I have to submit a BRFA for META as well.— cyberpower  Chat Online  21:01, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I dont know if it was deactivated or not. I only looked into the 4 tasks TPBot is doing now, again because I didnt want to take on too much I couldn't handle with everything else I'm into right now.  I'm not sure how Commons and Meta do BRFAs.--v/r - TP 21:22, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Steward request for bot status
You seem to have tried to request bot status on this by running arund the WP:BRFA process and requesting it from the stewards on Meta. Please do not do so, on the one hand, Stewards cannot and will not grant you bot status here, on the other hand, it gives the impression that you're trying to run around the WP:BRFA process, the Bot Approval Group and enwiki's 'crats. It really doesn't look good.  Snowolf How can I help? 12:30, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * That's not what I was trying to do. Because the bot is doing nothing here and will only be doing something there, simple and commons, I thought that directly asking them instead would be OK.  However after seeing the message advising me to initiate a second BRFA and your, (a little rude and hurtful) comment, I may initiate a second BRFA here to get the interwiki tasks approved at least.  I do appreciate it though if you could not say hurtful things like that as I am trying my best and the Meta wiki instructions for approving bots isn't all that clear to me.— cyberpower  Chat Limited Access  12:34, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Wait, you're saying the requests is not for performing said task on enwiki? Because that's what your request there appeared to say. If that is not the case, it can be rectified (the request there was on the page for requestion bot permission on wikis with no active local 'crats, not meta itself and you filed en.wikipedia as the domain you wanted the bot status on...).  Snowolf How can I help? 12:38, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh. Oops.  In that case I meant Meta.Wiki.  Cyberbot I clears the sandbox for meta.wikimedia.— cyberpower  Chat Limited Access  12:41, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, then yeah, there's been come confusion :) I've commented on the request explaining there has been a misunderstanding :) The page for a request on meta is m:Meta:Requests for adminship. For an example of a bot request so you get an idea of how the page works, see m:Meta:Requests for bot status/Thehelpfulbot. Regards,  Snowolf How can I help? 12:47, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I guess that was my fault for causing this misunderstanding.  BTW, the example page doesn't exist.— cyberpower  Chat Limited Access  12:49, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Happens, the page could be clearer. I messed up the interwiki, should be fixed now.  Snowolf How can I help? 12:57, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot. I made the request here.— cyberpower  Chat Limited Access  13:07, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Regarding your bot, friendly advice: It's currently making one dummy edit per minute plus one to your RfX report every fifteen minutes. Can you turn those off? I consider them useless, and believe they will be a distraction during your ongoing BRFA. Amalthea  22:19, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
 * That dummy edit keeps the readiness of the bot actuated. I had planned to shut it off if my bot is approved for a trial.   I am sitting in my car right now and there can't shut it off.  You can shut tally and RfX reporter off for me.  You can control them through its user page.— cyberpower  Chat Offline  22:51, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
 * And why is that status edit necessary? I think it goes against "does not consume resources unnecessarily" from WP:BOTPOL. Amalthea  13:11, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I can remove it of the community dissapproves of it.— cyberpower Chat Limited Access  14:10, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I think the policy shows that it does. Amalthea  19:05, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * On the other hand, it's only pushing the same edit every 5 minutes. It's not scanning, it's not processing or doing anything.  I would like community input on this and if the rest of the community believes I should remove, then I will.  No disrespect to is meant by this.— cyberpower  Chat Online  19:12, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Hmm. Well I won't be pressing it. But I have no idea why you think making a completely useless edit every five minutes is in any way useful. (And FWIW, edits require way more resources then requests). Amalthea  19:16, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It's not useless to me. It serves the purpose of showing that the bot is ready and active. It's used in the header of User:Cyberbot I where it says Active and Ready. If it stops editing there, within 5 minutes, that header will automatically change to Down. It's useful if people want to know if the bot is up or not. And what does FWIW mean?— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  19:21, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

The tone of my message was trying to help ronjohn, and that he could discuss things with me, and then the moment he came to my page you told him off? That really stepped on my point. I'd like to think of my talk page as a bit of a safe haven for complainers, so can I make a request? Never, ever, ever, ever EVER tell off anyone on my talk page. Ever. For anything. Oh.. except me.

Talkback
--Ron John (talk) 15:42, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

concerning a recent set of views
Cyberpower, IMO, there is a fundamental difference between the RfX-notice and leaving the link at the end of the IRC log off message that may help you understand why some editors may have an issue that it is keen to canvassing or of poor judgment. The notice on an user's page or talk page there is so those who may interact with the user, may come across it when coming to the user, rather than being sent across to a multitude of editors in an area the editor is active. It is why there is a decorum of not posting a notice to wiki-projects, or even worst still, adding a notice of it to a signature; such as the "review me" message link that is done for an editor review, and then posting a comment on a highly viewed project page showing that signature (such as what can be viewed as being done in essence with the log off message). From what I have read, most of those who have opposed seem to be more concerned with the judgment used in that instance than with any unintended consequences it may have caused. Just a perspective though. Take care. Kindly Calmer   Waters  02:55, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
 * A link is a link and I stand by my view. If he were to post the link and say "support me", then that would be a different story.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Limited Access  10:09, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

 * It was transcluded by someone other than the user. It prematurely was started.  I fixed the malformed request and made it ready for the transclude whenever they want.  In short, I am done with that RfA and I'm not screwing around with it.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  20:17, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Of course I'm not but by the rules, talk pages and discussions and votes should only be made to transcluded RfA's right? The RfA is untranscluded and shouldn't be edited, or am seeing this from a wrong perspective?  You don't have to threaten me with a block btw.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  20:20, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

 * If they are allowed to be edited then I won't do it anymore. I got involved because I saw this edit in my watchlist and my initial action was to remove the malformed request made by another editor.  Snowolf reverted me so I fixed the malformed request.  Then I realized that a different user transcluded after I fixed and instated the first oppose so I removed the oppose and basically set it to a state before it would've been transcluded.  That's it.  If you don't want me involved, then I won't be involved, but please always bear the mindset that I am trying to help and am always trying to help and that threatening me with blocks is unnecessary.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  20:28, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

It's great that you're trying to help. For future reference, the best thing to do in these situations is to undo the transclusion (which you did, so good) and leave a note on the user's talk page explaining why. There's no need to speedy-delete tag anything, or to reformat the RfA or remove other people's comments. 28bytes (talk) 20:33, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I think the big problem here is your history with contentious NACs. What just happened was, well, weird as all hell. You want to seem useful, I understand, I really do get why. But wading into the no-win situation like that (Integrity of the RFA v Biting a newcomer; WP:NOTNOW v WP:NOBIGDEAL). I know you've been asked in the past to keep your NACs to clear open-and-shut cases, and I implore you to heed their advice. As fair or unfair as it is, non-admins make enemies when an admin would probably just have gotten a trout. Just keep your head above water and remember that you don't want your good work overshadowed because of a weird situation (that, frankly, we all would have done well to have approached only have approached with a pole of, at minimum, eleven feet). Just my $.16 (adjusted for inflation) Cheers! Achowat (talk) 20:34, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * @28bytes: Thanks for the advice and will remember it for the future.<P>@Achowat: I fail how this situation has to do with me perfoming nac's. Especially since agreed to no longer do that to avoid conflicts.  I also believe you're referencing me performing closures at WP:PERM where I am stilled allowed to close but, have agreed not to which in that case has absolutely nothing to do with this topic considering that it's been well over a few months time since I last performed such a closure.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  20:48, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Is the situation the same? No. Are you going to be looked at harder when it comes to similiar things because of that history? Yes. Just a friendly reminder to stay where you're comfortable. The really scary things can be handled by the people who make the big bucks. Cheers! Achowat (talk) 20:59, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok. My history would also reveal that I accept people's advice and learn off of them too.  I'm not aiming to become admin as much as used to.  Not ever since I was blocked.  It taught me that I have much to learn here before I'm even ready to be one.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  21:02, 30 March 2012 (UTC)


 * 28bytes said, "Will you please stop screwing with that RfA?" Actually, it might behoove you to stop screwing around with any RfA.  Sure, you can vote in 'em, just don't close 'em or alter others' comments.  Leave that to the mops.  From the previous comments about RfAs, you're dangerously close to a topic ban in the area.

 * That comment is also unnecessary because I got that point already as well. I won't "screw" with an RfA anymore.  I'm open to how I can improve but if I'm going to be topic banned for making mistakes for the first time of that nature, I might as well stop editing now.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  00:28, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

 * And wholly inappropriate! My goodness Cyberpower, how many times do we have to say, your signature should not be over 255 characters of wikicode. That's 396. I know you like to have clever templates so it automatically changes - that's not a major issue (besides the obvious, you should be doing more useful stuff with your time), but if you violate WP:SIG again, especially so blatently, I will block you.

Your friend also changed the history page?
How was your friend able to get the history page to show your signature as originating the section?

I know one can change the visible signature on a section of a page but have no idea how to get the history page to show anything except the true creator. Am I misreading something, or have you shared your account access with someone? Bielle (talk) 16:03, 10 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Do you mean this diff? I guess a sysadmin would be able to, but noone else.-- Gilderien Talk|Contribs 16:06, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Confused - So what exactly happened posting that link on Jimbo's page? You removed it saying a friend was messing around, but your contribs show that you placed it there. Is somebody editing using your account? That doesn't sound entirely convincing. AsPer my comment on Jimbo's talk, I would recommend against placing such a list in an area which can be viewed by many, and with your name coming up pretty often, some people could take offense to their name not being in the friends list, also personal attacks on enemies ect. Note: this is just my opinion. Mr little  irish  16:27, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * What happened was that a friend of mine needed computer access to print out something. This friend of mine saw me still logged into my account and decided to post about my newly created friends list without my knowledge.  I'm aware of the suspicion this is causing and friends are those I consider helpful or whom I interact a lot with.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Limited Access  17:14, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Secure your account
Cyberpower, you need to make sure your account is secure. Adding a "friends list" to the most watched user talk page on Wikipedia is not going to go un-noticed. Confirming that it was not you who did it can lead to a block for a compromised account. I think now would be a good time to confirm you are in control of the account, perhaps using the commitment to real life identity on your front page? It's worth ensuring that you log out when you are not using your computer. WormTT  &middot; &#32;(talk) 16:24, 10 April 2012 (UTC)


 * You write a list of your friends and people think it is a security issue? Feel the WikiLove! —Tom Morris (talk) 16:29, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think a list of friends is a security issue, I think this edit summary is a security issue, when referring to this. I've already chatted with him about the list - which I'm a proud member of - on my talk page   WormTT   &middot; &#32;(talk) 16:36, 10 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Worm, I added a SHA-512 commitment to my account a while back (see my user page) but I don't understand how knowing the source text (which I do!) would help me regain control of my account if a keylogger or similar malware got my password and someone then changed my password and email. Random I know.-- Gilderien Talk|Contribs 16:31, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Because if you could reveal that source text to me, I know it's you (by running through the same hash) - no one else can get that. From that point, it's a case of blocking the account, and I believe the email/password can be changed by devs / crats / account creators / some other person who isn't me.  WormTT   &middot; &#32;(talk) 16:36, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * As per WormTT's note, for more information on compromised accounts, see the explanation at Template:User_committed_identity. --Fæ (talk) 16:38, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I read that when I was setting up my secret string, but it just say "when you have re-gained control of your account" but does not explain how one would do this, or who could reset your email (presumably you could reset your password if the email was yours).-- Gilderien Talk|Contribs 16:44, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * All that committed identity is all well and good, but at this stage it's useless unless you know if it's Cyberpower or his Friend setting it up.--159.221.32.10 (talk) 16:49, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Cyberpower has a committed identity on his userpage - and has done since 24 November last year.  WormTT   &middot; &#32;(talk) 16:52, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * That does not seem likely as he added it here, in November 2011.-- Gilderien Talk|Contribs 16:55, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Bureaucrats have such powers, contact one of them and they can reset the account while avoiding using a compromised email. Getting onto IRC would probably help sort this out too as someone could ask the account owner some suitable identifying questions if they had any remaining doubts about the situation.
 * Note, it is common to block any compromised account until re-verification is done. Letting your friends have access to your logged in account is a reason for your account to be blocked until you give assurances that the problem will not reoccur. Thanks --Fæ (talk) 17:10, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * (EC) Ahh my bad, I misread this as encouraging him to add one. Since he previously did that, then you're absolutely correct that now is the time to use it to confirm. Carry on.--159.221.32.10 (talk) 17:13, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I am Cyberpower678 currently writing this message. My friend wanted to be "helpful" and post my list to my friends in friends page this morning.  I only gave him permission to use my laptop to print out something.  I would rather share my key if my account were hacked and it was being used for destructive purposes however, I willing to share it with Worm.  Unfortunately, the key is an entire paragraph that I have saved in an encrypted flash drive so it will have to wait until I get home from school.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Limited Access  17:18, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd recommend you log out, email me the paragraph as soon as you get home. I'll confirm within 15 mins. As Fae says, it's common to block possibly compromised accounts. Setting up a new key is easy enough, and that's what it's there fore. If you are planning to log out and stop editing until you've emailed me, I don't see any reason to block.  WormTT   &middot; &#32;(talk) 17:29, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Other than the message I just placed on your talk page, I'll stop editing.— cyberpower Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Limited Access  17:31, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Going on your contribs now, I don't think it's anything to worry about, just try keep an eye on your friends when they use your computer :) Mr  little  irish  18:46, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I sent the key to Worm.— cyberpower  Chat<sub style="margin-left:-3.7ex"> Online  20:02, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

I can confirm that the key that Cyberpower gave me via email has an output of - d8347437a55b70605d7858449ad11597f773f581, which matches his commitment. I am therefore happy that the editor, Cyberpower, who put the commitment there on 24 November 2011 is in complete control of his account. If he was blocked, I would be unblocking now. WormTT  &middot; &#32;(talk) 20:07, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Clean start
I've removed your note to Carliitaeliza telling her to WP:CLEANSTART. She is blocked and globally locked. Such users do not have the option of cleanstarting open to them - it says right in the clean start policy that "A clean start is not permitted if there are active bans, blocks or sanctions (including, but not limited to those listed here) in place against the old account." Please be cautious about things like this; the user is persistent enough already, we don't need her socking more thinking you told her it's ok. A fluffernutter is a sandwich!

 * I'm afraid to say I think you're right in declining. I'm pretty certain you'd be snowed out. You're a bright editor cyberpower, but there's quite a lot you'll have to prove before you become an admin. Having said that, the amount you've improved since I first met you is amazing. Unfortunately, there's a few areas which are lacking, for example, I think you'll need to have some decent content creation before you start thinking about adminship.
