IP edits to Roy Jones, Jr.
Actually, they appear to be valid; what he's removing looks to be copyvio. Half Shadow  21:51, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I checked and I stopped, and left a note on his page as he doesn't use an edit summary which is quite important when you are viewing the page from Huggle.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  21:52, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Custom Huggle
Since I at least know my way around Visual Studio, I'm personally trying to make a custom version of Huggle for myself. I'll let you know how I do. Allmightyduck  &#xF8FF;  What did I do wrong? 20:51, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright cool man, good luck. I still use igloo more often as Huggle seems to crash quite often on my pc.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  20:59, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Gay condom
While it may have been established that gays cannot have children and they can only have anal sex, there is such thing as a Gay condom if you see www.mycondom.co.uk Mike Rothstein (talk) 18:21, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Well then you should update your article to something more useful then, because currently your article just a table with gay condom.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  18:31, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Hey.
I was trying to add an image to Numeracy in Latin America - why you revert me ? I'm not VANDALISING AT ALL !!!! Nooba booba sooba looba (talk) 20:51, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but please try to keep test in the sandbox and please provide a reason why the picture is need as it is not only me that is removing it. -- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  20:57, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, you just log out =(. I know your tricks. show me how to put the picture in properly. Nooba booba sooba looba (talk) 21:41, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * You should post a topic on the talk page because your picture doesn't seem relevant at all. If you really want to try again, use to post the pic at the bottom because it doesn't belong anywhere on the page. If it is removed, don't ask me because I am not touching that page and getting involved with an edit war. Also you can ask an admin to check that the IP that removed your edit isn't mine.--  iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  21:45, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Can you help me to undelete the page ? revisionists are trying to destroy the vital information inside it. Nooba booba sooba looba (talk) 21:47, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * No, because I do not know much about the topic in the article, if you believe that your edit is constructive, please leave a message on the talk page of the article and let people know why, because if you keep adding it and others keep reverting it, it is going to lead into an edit war.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  21:50, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Why did you take the image away if you don't know much about the article then ? Nooba booba sooba looba (talk) 21:52, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Please check the page history before you make assumptions. I have moved your image to a gallery in the past and another user removed it as the IP believed it is irrelevant.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  21:54, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Only when your stifled throat guilt ? . Nooba booba sooba looba (talk) 21:55, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It is considered vandalism when you put an out of place image on a page. You should format it right before you insert it because other users will remove it also. Either way, attacking me isn't going to get the problem solved.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  21:57, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * So Wikipedia wants to prevent new editors from editing properly by telling them they can't put images in articles badly so that someone else might correct them and thus teach them ? Seriously. Nooba booba sooba looba (talk) 21:59, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * No Wikipedia wants edits that are relevant, and if you don't know how to do something and it is out of place on a page, it is going to get reverted. Either way, since you don't seem too happy about me removing your edit and accusing me for an IP of being me, I have requested an admin to help you with the situation.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  22:03, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi there Nooba booba sooba looba. You are free to insert images and content to Wikipedia to help improve it, but please note that it should be relevant the article, meaning that it should be related to the subject of the article. For example, if the article is about a cat, you would insert images of cats and not dogs. Why? Because the article is about cats and not dogs, so an image of a dog would not help. In this specific incidence, the article is about numeracy education in Latin America and not about the "sophisticated architecture and math" that may still be there, despite the crisis. If the building had a closer connection to the subject, then it could be included, but the relationship you state is too distant. As an added note, the article is currently up for deletion.

IP vandal
Probably best to not get worked up about him while waiting for the vandal blockers to get to his case. Dicklyon (talk) 23:53, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Your recent removal of an edit I made.
If you have found the paragraph that I contributed under Policies to be wrong, please enlighten me to how to edit it so as to inform others that the website can be harmful to individuals under certain circumstances. ??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Advocateofchange (talk • contribs) 00:29, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Your contribution didn't have a neutral point of view. It is understandable if you do not like their hosting structures and rules, but formally attacking the site isn't a constructive edit and therefore reverted by another user.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  00:34, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry if this reply was not done right, I'm still new to this system of discussion.


 * My intention was not meant to be a personal attack, but to provide information so that there is no biased outlook on it by just showing part of what they do and have done. I can understand "I hate proboards, don't use them, they are stupid" to be a personal attack, but I find that people are allowed to have knowledge of anything that could potentially harm them in any way before joining their service.  Many parents that have contacted this service were treated like trouble-makers.


 * I have reread my edit and do see your point. Here is a revision that I want to run past you:


 * ProBoards condons hate crimes, trolling, bullying and personal attacks by certain members that are found to have immunity based on favoritism. While not every staff member of this website shares this outlook, the majority with more power then others usually tend to make the driving force in what is done. They do not care about their customers as when there is an upset customer, that customer is treated as if they are trying to harm the website as a whole and is treated like a criminal or trouble-maker. Contacting the creator of Proboards.com, Patrick Clinger, about the matter will do no good and serves no purpose as attempts to facilitate a genuine response that brings in a change for the better has gone ignored.


 * This information is accurate and many people that has used this service can testify to these facts. For parents of children who use this service, is is recommended that you monitor their actions as they may be reading or being treated unfairly.


 * If this is not up to par to Wikipedia's standards, please help me to revise this further to help clear out any possibilities that this could be viewed as a personal attack, rather then information based on factual experiences with this service. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Advocateofchange (talk • contribs) 00:47, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
 * You should a look at this page. While I respect your edits and thoughts on them, this is not a site for personal opinions, this is why there are review sites and forums on the internet for these opinions. If you really want to post this edit, try to discuss it on the talk page of the article and see what other editors might have to say to this matter-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  01:23, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Cartoon censorship
I need a little help figuring out what's going on at Fraidy Cat (film). So last week I blocked an IP that was mostly removing censorship sections from articles. Today, I blocked an different IP for requesting one be removed from Fraidy Cat, assuming per WP:DUCK that it was the same individual. However, I notice that the currently blocked IP was actually edit warring with the originally blocked IP. Can you shed some light on this? OhNo itsJamie Talk 19:58, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I wasn't actually sure what was going on that page myself which is why I avoided the Edit war on the page. I think it would be best if you contacted User:TheRealFennShysa as he is usually watching those pages. From what I have seen, it seems the IP blocked was actually trying to fight the vandalism that was going on but started to remove the whole section. Another IP of User:81.129.190.30 was blocked today by User:TeaDrinker at User:86.138.166.23, so what I am understanding when watching the Edit war myself from a few days ago, it seems that User:81.129.190.30 is actually adding vandalism and User:98.254.83.35 was reverting it until a point the user itself started to blank out the section. So it seems both parties are at fault with this.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  20:05, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Edit
Is this edit vandalism?  Wayne Olajuwon  chat   21:47, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It seems like it, as the info doesn't seem particularly current from the knowledge I know about Greenhouse, you might want to run through with an editor that knows the topic well if you aren't sure. Maybe just revert it and not warn?-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  21:52, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, I'll try to revert edits I'm not sure of and not warn them or maybe just don't revert it.  Wayne Olajuwon  chat   21:58, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I tend to skip edits that I am unsure of since I don't want to get involved into an unnecessary conflict, but if it seems enough like vandalism, I will revert it though, and maybe not warn.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  21:59, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it is vandalism. Confirmation from Materialscientist himself.
 * Oh, okay.  Wayne Olajuwon  chat   22:19, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Mykonos
I think it's time you realise that on the page of mykonos "It is believed that the island was named after a local hero, Alexander Corbetis who is considered an sad god Apollo and was worshipped locally in antiquity." The part with Alexander Corbetis is totally not true. The local hero was named something else but not Alexander Corbetis. Just telling you this because you fixed the other stuff when i messed about on that page but you forgot that. Thanks, King of Kings BEETEEROO —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.1.146.145 (talk) 16:12, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It is nice that you have information to contribute, however, blanking sections is considered vandalism. If you have sources to back up your facts, then it might be different.-- iGeMiNix / What's up? / My Stuff  19:30, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

It even says it. And here "Mykonos is named after the offspring of the god Apollo, Mykon and according to the Greek Mythology the clash of the Titans first took place on this island." on http://www.euraps2011.gr/static/images/articles/FINAL_SPONSORSHIP_MANUALEURAPS_CONGRESS.pdf. Is that enough info to back up my point?

User:98.125.174.157
Hi! You beat me to reverting the above editor. By the way, when an edit is a egragious and rascist as this, you can go straight to a Level 4 warning with Huggle. Then just note in an edit summary on the vandal’s page that you escalated to Level 4 because of the rascist nature of the vandalism. Thanks! —  Spike Toronto  05:40, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

P.S. If he should stop once he gets his Level 4, whenever that may be, I would still report him to WP:AIV. The blocking admins will usually block someone who makes edits like those. —  Spike Toronto  05:42, 16 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Ah, I see, thanks. I am not using Huggle right now as I am too lazy to boot it up lol, using igloo and it doesn't have custom warnings yet.-- iGeM  iN  ix  05:43, 16 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Silly me. I didn’t take notice of the GLOO in the summary. With HG you can press the revert/warn button, go to advanced, select Level 4, and the appropriate warning, and presto. Thanks! —  Spike Toronto  05:50, 16 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the advice, I will take note of it the next time I use Huggle, I still haven't figured out all of the options on it. XD-- iGeM  iN  ix  05:52, 16 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I’ve been using it for over a year and only just these past two weeks have suddenly figured out all that it can do. It is a very powerful little tool. If you have any questions, hit me up on my talk page. —  Spike Toronto  06:00, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Huggle vs. Gloo
What do you think is better: Huggle or Gloo?  Wayne Olajuwon  chat   16:25, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Huggle is definitely more powerful at the moment. But I use igloo more often as it doesn't crash as often as Huggle does for me.-- iGeM  iN  ix  16:27, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay.  Wayne Olajuwon  chat   16:28, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * If your on a Mac (which I am), Igloo is the way to go. Otherwise go with Huggle. See another discussion at User talk: HJ Mitchell. Gfoley 4  /  Wanna chat?  17:04, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Sock check
Feel free to file a request at Sockpuppet investigations -- while I'm pretty darned sure TCR is, I'm hardly infallible. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 23:55, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Nah, its fine, I saw the other edits of the involved editors so yeah, seems like it, I have no problem with the block.-- iGeM  iN  ix  23:57, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
 * The other editors involved have extensive knowledge of, and experience with SRQ, and all of us are convinced that it's her. I still think a SPI requesting a CU between Sabra2/UrbanCowboy12 ("confirmed" CU related) and the other confirmed accounts (including NeoNeuroGeek, who should be moved to "confirmed" instead of "suspected" sockpuppets).  This case has been suggested by at least one administrator to be taken to long term abuse, and I tend to agree with them. A more expansive SPI case needs to be created at least, as no other named socks have been put there as of yet.  Doc   talk  00:15, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * "Seems to be a problem with DocOfSoc not assuming good faith here. Anyways, keep up the work bro, you will get them eventually.--iGeMiNix 00:49, 16 October 2010 (UTC)" I know you meant well, but I am the good guy here, with a long history with SRQ.  As per guidelines, before you accuse someone of not assuming good faith, it might be better to wait a bit.  You are obviously one of the "good guys" and i wish we had met under better circumstances. Moving forward With WikiLove...DocOfSoc (talk) 00:31, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It's all good, just that you seemed pretty rough and I was sort of involved with one of the rougher "well known" editors around here as seen in my history and it seemed like you were like him. Anyways, how come the dude keeps coming back with more accounts? Does he really want to screw stuff up around here with changing IPs and ISPs all the time?-- iGeM  iN  ix  01:03, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * SRQ self-identifies as a "she", and she is quite devoted to editing here despite being unfit for the project. I have caught many of her socks, and DocOfSoc was a regular target of hers well before I ever got involved.  Yes, she does want to continue to "screw stuff up around here", because she is "hell-bent" on her view of editing this encyclopedia. Cheers :>  Doc   talk  01:12, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. Well not the first time you ran into an editor like that. I ran into an IP myself that had a similar attitude that tried to edit the way he wants, and now he is gone for a bit, which is nice. At least she isn't Malleus.-- iGeM  iN  ix  01:18, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * No comment on Malleus: but I've had only positive (albeit rare) experiences with him. SRQ is no Malleus, because he contributes positively here.  The depths of her disruption here (with recently discovered copyvios) have only begun with the continued socking...  Doc   talk  01:25, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Although Malleus contributes positively, his interactions with other editors is something left to be desired. I have a question, how long has SRQ been around?-- iGeM  iN  ix  01:31, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * That answer is clear, but you don't need me for that. Socks after her unanimous community ban are listed here and here.  The SPI is all there, but really needs expanding...  Doc   talk  01:39, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I see thanks. You sure love your 3 dots. lol.-- iGeM  iN  ix  01:48, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I usually "mix it up" with a "Cheers" or a :>, but I am partial to the "...". Easy to identify me if I get banned and start socking, right?  Cheers ;>  Doc   talk  01:52, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Lol, yep, thanks again and see you around!-- iGeM  iN  ix  02:05, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Well as usual I'm late but anywho, I'm going to intoduce myself to you too. We've been battling with SRQ what seems like a lifetime already. She got that last account blocked, right? Well today, even with her apparent wish to be unblocked she is socking as an IP over at another article this morning. She even stated at Wikipedia Review to others that are at this site to make a whole lot of socks and use them all to get to the editors trying to block you out going crazy. She also got called on a thread she started there that she was stalking my contributions which she denied. She said she didn't know how she came to be at my contributions like she didn't even know who I am which is not true obviously since I was one of the main contributors saying it was way past time for a community ban when she started socking days after getting banned for a year. She is now indefinitely banned due to all the socks she has been using and I'm sure there are more. Sorry to meet you this way under these circumstances, but hey maybe a good friendship can be started too. That's what happened with DocOfSoc (Doc#2) and me and Doc9871 (Doc#1) who got to know her. Doc#1 and I have been in contact with each other for a long time. We just got to know Doc#2 thus the numbers so we don't have to spell everything out. :=) Hope to see you around, -- Crohnie Gal  Talk  15:45, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It's cool. I still think she has way too much time to be getting all those socks on here.-- iGeM  iN  ix  19:14, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Error
This revert was unhelpful -. The IP was making a genuine attempt to point out a problem with the article. You reverted him, warned him and left the problem still in existence. Exxolon (talk) 01:08, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I am sorry. I did this during my patrol, it would have been a better attempt if he did it on the talk page instead of editing on the article itself.-- iGeM  iN  ix  01:12, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
