Re: Ahem
Hi Steve. Yeah I am, but I'm still a bit new to this. I'm really tempted to do a 6 month block since it's a school. But at the risk of doing an overly-long block, I'm letting someone else do it ;) Spellcast (talk) 09:48, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Ahem, be BOLD. :P Besides 99% of actions you do as an admin are reversible so no real harm. You should look at my block log lol. Although when I first got my tools I was hesitant to enforce long term blocks too. If I may suggest, this is my opinion(s) on the matter. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  09:52, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the link, I totally agree your points. Come to think of it, I often see IPs who haven't technically vandalised after a recent final warning, so I end up sending another pointless "last warning". I'll definitely be more bold about this in the future though. Cheers! Spellcast (talk) 09:59, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Page legality with Wikipedia guidelines.
Hello KnowledgeOfSelf,

Im having a few difficulties with this user sub page:

Planeless_Snake/Goatse

This page links to a web page where a man stuffs a rubber ball up, O well, guess you know where. Previously the page contained a tabled image, but after complaints the user created this link. I do not know what i should file here, or if anything shpuld be filed at all. It kind of looks like a UW-Link violation, but then again, its on a user sub page, so I do not know if it applies here. Could you have a look at this one please? Thanks in advance. :)

-- Excirial ( Talk, Contribs ) 11:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * See below. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  12:18, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

I've blocked the user indef as an obvious troll. See this edit - these misleading and disparaging links and most of all obvious disruption. There is an MfD for the for the deletion of the sub page. Cheers. Knowledge Of Self |  talk  12:06, 19 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks KoS. Should have thought about trolling myself. I didn't check his user page/other contributions, but you are right. He clearly is a vandal. :)
 * No problem, also real quick and it's not a big deal... but if you have a request for me that has already been taken care of, please don't remove it, especially this early in the morning. It tends to confuse the hell out of me until I remember to check the history. :) Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  12:16, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Will do so. I tend to check the user \ WP:AIAV history to see which administrator(s) are currently handling the vandals. Based upon that i choose an administrator which i have seen before, and post a request on their user page. When i posted it on your page, i noticed that you had been gone 20 minutes, and assumed that you logged off for the day. So i removed it, and filed it to another admin. Sorry for the confusion about that, and another thanks for handling this :) -- Excirial ( Talk, Contribs ) 12:21, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

the ban
Sorry, the ban on a singular IP for me doesn't work. I've reverted your action and commented on my pending sockpuppet debate so as to illustrate another IP I've used and indicated that I've side-stepped my ban. Suspected_sock_puppets/74.13.29.56 74.13.33.150 (talk) 15:56, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

User:74.13.59.80
Thanks for blocking this guy, but as you will have noticed, he has just restored all the attacks that I reverted, and the ones that you reverted from yet another new IP :-( He has also attacked you at Suspected sock puppets/74.13.29.56 (one of his previous IPs).

It appears that his ISP does very short DHCP leases, such that he gets a new IP every time he drops his connection. His IP seems to be very variable, and it is possible that he could get any address in 74.13.0.0/16

The only thing that would stop him would be a short term rangeblock on 74.13.0.0/16, but with account creation allowed, so as to mitigate harm to others. I don't have sufficient experience to know whether his deliberate disruption, and intent to continue warrants that. Mayalld (talk) 16:06, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes I'd say it does. I was on my way to range blocking when I started getting dozens of error messages - perhaps a server went down? Anyhow, all he is doing is justifying the blocks being placed on him. Revert, block and ignore. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  16:09, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I noticed the brief error message session. However, we can hope that he will get bored of his vandalism over the course of 3 hours. Mayalld (talk) 16:21, 20 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Nope. 74.13.50.175 (talk) 22:07, 20 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Sadly, not :-( He's back at it again on the same pages. I am at a loss to see how he can be prevented from continually wreaking havoc. Clearly it isn't going to be possible to go for ever longer anon-blocks on a /16 range. Would I be best taking this to AN/I for a wider discussion of the best course of action, or do you have some ideas?? Mayalld (talk) 22:12, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * You can take it to AN/I I'm sure you'll get more help than I alone can provide. In the mean time, when you report him to AIAV, give a concise summary of the situation and request an other range block. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  04:13, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Havoc? Havoc?  Are you this limited in your understanding of the language?  I've reverted your actions on two pages, after I went to the trouble of correcting some idiot's incorrect modification to an article which they obviously lacked any understanding of the topic which the article dealt.  You're a bigger fool than I had imagined to call my actions first vandalism and then havoc.  74.13.50.175 (talk) 22:49, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

User:Lima
Hi Kos :)

I removed your last warning from User_Talk:Lima since i expect it was issued due to the re-report. The second report wasnt re-added by Lima, but it issued by me due to an edit conflict. I expected that a new report was added, so i I copied the origional report, along with my new comment, to the AIAV page. I later noticed that the origional report was already removed, so by accident this might have looked a lot like a new report

I replaced your warning with a notice to the user that he should check the history of AIAV for clarification, along with a message that his revert got a message back in. I know i should not remove admin warnings, but seeing the time at which it was issued, i expect this was just a little misunderstanding. With kind regards, -- Excirial ( Talk, Contribs ) 11:34, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Ahh no you were perfectly right to do that. My mistake, and my apologies. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  11:36, 21 November 2007 (UTC)


 * No need for that whatsoever! I should have had a second look to see if the report was removed already, before copying and pasting the report back in. Besides, you had every reason to think that it was reissued by the origional user, and besides that, no harms done :) -- Excirial ( Talk, Contribs ) 11:43, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello KOS, I came by to say "thanks" for jumping on those Bad Religion Tour pages and making them go bye-bye.

Also, I took a quick look at your user page and happened to notice that you created American Indian Defense Association. I was quite surprised to see that because I had never come across it, even though I've done a fair amount of editing of Native American articles & categories. Then I discovered the reason why: it was only in one category, for Legal defence organizations, so it didn't show up in any of the Native American categories. I've now added some more categories, so hopefully a lot of other readers will find and read your very interesting article! Regards, Cgingold (talk) 14:31, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Ahh yes well I had some help with clearing out the SD page, so you should thank Waggers and other various admins too. And thanks for adding more categories to the AIDA article, it was in need of more that's for sure. Happy editing. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  14:39, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 21:08, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Matthew Spencer vandalism
Hi there, I see you are trying to keep up with the user who is constantly vandalising the Matthew Spencer page. However, i would ask if you are able to revert to last edit made by Crickettragic, this is the last fully unvandalised, correct page. All newer edits have some form of vandalism on them.

Masked Marvel dab page proposal

Speaking of disambiguation, let me ask you another question. Wouldn't you think that Hammett would redirect to Dashiell Hammett, and that there should be a separate article entitled Hammett (film)? When I typed in Hammett, I simply assumed I would go directly to the article about the writer. Fixing that article, and everything related thereto, is my next big project. Do the chemistry equation Hammett equation, the quitarist Kirk Hammett, the author, and the film justify the creation of another dab page? --- RepublicanJacobite  The'FortyFive'  22:15, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

I made that edit to fix conflicting terminology between that page and the Manta ray page. I believe the latter used the correct terms, so I changed the Stingray page. If I'm wrong, I apologize, and suggest the other page be fixed.

Hello, I started an ANI discussion on one of your blocks. Feel free to comment. Thanks! Cheers,JetLover (Report a mistake) 01:26, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm a little surprised you took that straight to AN/I instead of discussing it with me first. Oh well what can you do? I've already commented at the AN/I thread, but I'm disappointed you didn't give me the courtesy of discussing this with me first. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  11:44, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, the same applies to me, I should have contacted you first instead of unblocking him. Also, when I said that the block was mistaken, I did not mean that no vandalism had been committed, but only that the punishment was a bit too fast and too harsh. I mean disregarding the self-revert, there was only one case of silly vandalism, and that should have resulted in a warning, and an immediate indef block seemed pretty extreme. Anyway, you're doing a great job fighting vandalism, just remember that some of these users who make a few silly edits now may become interested in the project and could just want to experiment, so it's usually best to warn the users before blocking them (which I see you are usually doing in most cases). Good Luck! TSO1D (talk) 15:21, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I understand where you are coming from, but the way I saw it is like this:
 * Brand new user whose first edit is to vandalize Jimbo's page. Ignore the self revert for a second, how in the world does a newbie find Jimbo's page first? He then blames it on his sister.
 * The page the user created and then had deleted wasn't a simple db-bio, rather it was an atttack page. Doesn't look good to me so far.
 * Vandalizing the Melon page and then blaming it on his brother this time. AGF can only be followed so far imo.
 * I'm not mad or upset about the unblock, I don't rule Wikipedia and I welcome everyone to review my actions. I just would have preferred a consultation with me first, so that I could give a my reasons as stated here and on AN/I of why the block was placed. If anyone dis-agreed with the block after that, then I would unblock the user myself with an apology. In this case it doesn't much matter anymore. Thanks for the message I do appreciate it.

RE:212.219.230.62
Steve, I personally thought your were a bit harsh to this user by giving them a warning 4. They may not be aware of 'disambiguations'. Timothy Neilen (talk) 12:34, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Timothy, the user made this edit about an hour before that. I reverted his addition once and he re-inserted it, I reverted him again and warned him. The guy is an obvious vandal, and the edit I just cited was obviously deserving of an bv, or test4, but since it was a bot revert&mdash;the bot doesn't know to to give more severe warnings, so I took that into account with my warning. Thanks for your message though, happy editing. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  12:39, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I did not realize.. thanks for pointing that out. Timothy Neilen (talk) 12:40, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

This is my mistake. By accident. Sorry. LUCPOL (talk) 14:38, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No worries, I suspected it may have been one, but I wasn't sure. Thanks for confirming that it wasn't on purpose. I'll remove the warning I left you. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  14:39, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

 * You have no right to claim my edits as vandalism. I removed what I felt was innaccurate information and I made my case on the talk page. It is up to TDC to make his case for his edits and to provide the proper documentation to support his claims. Just because something has been in an article for a long time doesn't make it vandalism.annoynmous 16:55, 26 November 2007 (UTC)


 * I would also like to know why you erased my complaints from your talk page. Are you simply going to not ackownledge me. annoynmous 17:05, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Firstly I removed your "complaints" from my userpage, as you can see your "complaints" are right here in front of you. Look see I'm responding to you. I'll respond further when I have the time. good day to you. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  17:07, 26 November 2007 (UTC)


 * What you mean didn't erase them what about this


 * It looks like you erased them to me. If it's some sorta Automatic revert on your talk page then fine I'll apologize, but I wasn't just making crazy accusations.annoynmous 17:13, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No no your are correct my mistake, I thought they were to my usepage, I was mistaken there. My apologies there. Now on to the revert I saw a large amount of text as well as the references section being removed with out an edit summary 9/10 times that is vandalism. If I made a mistake again I apologize I am only human. Happy editing. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  17:18, 26 November 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm Sorry if my tone sounds rude or insulting, I assure you I didn't mean to insult you personally. I'm sure your reversal of my edits wasn't intended to be malicious in any way. It's just I get angry when I get called a vandal just because I took something out of an article thats been there for a while even when Ive made my case on the talk page. Sometimes that anger blinds me and my tone becomes rude.


 * No hard feelings okay. annonmous 17:24, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It's alright, I didn't sense any rudeness from you, no hard feelings all around I hope. Knowledge Of Self  |  talk  18:37, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
