User talk:JorisvS/2006

Welcome to Wikipedia,
Hi there. Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and stick around. If you want, you can drop us a note at New user log to introduce yourself. Before you start doing a lot of editing, you might want to take the Tutorial. It gives a lot of basic info you'll want to get you oriented on Wikipedia. You can sign your name on talk pages by using three tildes ( " ") for your username and four (" ~ ") for your username and a timestamp. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Help or add a question to the Help desk. You can also drop me a question on my talk page. Happy editing, Dustimagic *\o/* (talk/contribs) *\o/* 21:52, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for experimenting with the page Earth on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. Avi 18:34, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Please do not keep undoing other people's edits without discussing them first. This is considered impolite and unproductive. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. Avi 18:42, 20 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Please do not remove your previous warnings from your talk page. It is considered to be vandalism too. Thanks. --Ichiro 18:44, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Response to these warnings
Please do not keep giving me these warnings that do NOT help me!! That serves NO purpose! Besides, the edits this new warning about the "Earth page" is talking about is not 'experimenting', I saw crap about Hitchhikers!! Moreover, this talk page must stay productive, meaning that warnings that I've read and no longer serve any purpose mustn't say here indefinitely!

Clarification
JorisvS, you seem to be new here, which is great, we all were new; Welcome! To explain what is happeneing regarding the Earth page, if you would read the actual article, you would notice that the Hitchhiker stuff does not show up, it is in an HTML comment block. The reason it is there is to dissuade vandalizers from putting Hitchhiker references in; it does not show in the article. Your desire to combat perceived vandalism is commendable, and if you channel it where vandalism exists, you will make a great contribution to Wikipedia. If you have any other questions, ask me on my talk page. Welcome, and good luck. Avi 18:58, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Dissuasion?
Yep, I did notice that it wasn't showing up, but only after I made my first removal. But is it used to dissuade Hitchhikers from putting in any references?? The comment didn't strike me as so, but had I understood it properly then, I would have left it intact in the first place. And thank you for letting me understand its purpose. Greetings, Joris, 20:04, 20 January 2006 (Local Time (=UTC+1))

VWN en WCN
Beste allemaal Al enige tijd is er een Nederlandstalig chapter in oprichting, te vinden op http://nl.wikimedia.org. Dit wordt de Vereniging Wikimedia Nederland (VWN). Je kunt je interesse om lid te worden van deze vereniging hier aangeven.

Deze vereniging gaat eind augustus/begin september een Wikimedia Conferentie in Nederland (WCN) houden, volgend op Wikimania in Boston, gedeeltelijk erop inspelend middels een aantal discussiegroepen. Om iets dergelijks te organiseren is imput erg gewenst. Dus als je wilt meehelpen, of als je interesse hebt om bij een dergelijk evenement aanwezig te zijn, geef dat dan aan op nl.wikimedia. Ik hoop daar snel je imput tegemoet te zien! Met vriendelijke groet, effeietsanders 15:41, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Blocking
Please see Blocking policy. Only administrators can block users, but if you think someone deserves a block after reading the blocking policy, there are a number of ways to get an admin's attention. The fastest way for reporting vandals is to post the vandal's IP address or username on WP:AIV. That is monitored by numerous administrators, and it usually doesn't take long for issues to get taken care of when posted there. --Spangineer[es] (háblame)  15:39, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
 * You are no admin so you cannot block anyone, plus it looks agressive. And your English is only level 3, no offense.
 * Firstly: Who are you? I know I'm not an admin. And the aggressiveness (two g's!) is THE component that has scared that vandal away! I don't appreciate strangers that put in crap about me on my userpage! From what would you like to deduce the latter of what you said?
