Thank you for reverting vandalism on my userpage. Oore (talk) 03:16, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

You've been doing this for too long.
Thank you for your contribution to my talk page. Sadly I only glanced over it because of the bad case of Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. If you're going to be 'helpful' like that, at least you could make it less obvious that you don't give a damn - because if you don't, why would I. That just concerns form though, and substance is a more serious issue. As I understand my changes were reverted on the sole reason that I did not fill in the summary field. Contrary to what you might believe, it is not necessary to do so. To quote from the summary field entry: "It is good practice". I understand the problem of vandalism at such open project as Wikipedia but not every IP out there is one. I'd assume you could at least see the changes made before reverting them. 81.15.202.133 (talk) 16:06, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

New Project
Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.

If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 17:39, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Warnings
As a general rule I don't leave the "warning" tag on talk pages, largely because when dealing with an IP it is a moot point. Major vandals I list as IPVandals in the appropriate location. For the amount of time it would take me to add a "test" or "warning" tag to an IP login the slim chance of it even being viewed is not worth it in my eyes. --Human.v2.0 (talk) 20:34, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Facts about El Naschie
Dear Mr. Kukini The user Nasr2000 changed the title of the article Naschie in to m.naschie and he makes it redirected from another title called Osa2000. This happened because the page has been appeared for deletion discussion. Cold you please warn this user about this? My Best Regards —Preceding unsigned comment added by Faragali (talk • contribs) 12:37, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Dear Kukini

We need help. We have repeatedly asked that the intrusion and slandering to Prof. El Naschie's article be stopped and nothing has been done. There is a vehment, malicious attack on the person of Prof. El Naschie by enemies. We have complained before and nothing was done. There is a well organized and calculated attack on the credentials of Prof.El Naschie who is a well known engineer and scientist and his contributions are very well known in both engineering and physics. There are some jealous people who are green with envy and who want to destroy him and hence they are lashing out false statements about his contributions and underminig his publications. I am aware that you operate on a volunteer basis, hence the personnel have neither time nor the resources to verify all the false information that people with pseudo names and pseudo emails are making against him. How can a Ph.D. student claim that Prof. El Naschie is publishing in a not very wellknown journal. He is the editor-in-chief of a very famous journal which he founded and has a high impact factor in its field. Elsevier is the largest and most famous scientific publisher in the field. How can he claim that Prof. El Naschie is quoting himself hence he ranks high on Spires, Stanford University Library. It is all malicious, vindictive and must be stopped at once. Slanderers and hackers should not use wikipedia as a venue to attack others. Wikipedia's credibiity and reputation are at stake.

Due to the above, we request that you close Prof. El Naschie's wikipedia site completely.

Thank you in advance for all your help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nasr2000 (talk • contribs) 19:01, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

My bad, I accidentally warned 68.98.209.85 for an edit to the sandbox, probably resulting in your block a bit later. I then felt bad for the harsh response since they only made one real vandal edit today. Care if I unblock? I can keep an eye on them for a bit and re-block if they keep it up. Either way, no big deal really. It's always a pleasure seeing you around Kukini, you do great work. Peace, delldot   talk  16:34, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Disputes
Kukini, on the talk page of the conversion therapy article I recently asked you why you thought that my argument for limiting the use of the term gay (which basically was that 'Using the word 'gay' rather than 'homosexual' is a way of siding with homosexuals who are happy being homosexual against those who are not') was not convincing. I apologize if I expressed myself impolitely, but I think the question was a reasonable one and deserves an answer. Also, I would like to ask whether you intend to block me again the next time you find me engaged in an edit war, and why you seemed to be singling me out for some sort of special treatment in this regard.

SilkyShark editing stefan user pages
opps logged in with wrong user, Im having SUL issues and de:user:Stefan renamed his user [:de:user:St-fl]] (sysop 9000+ edits) 1 week before SUL was turned on for sysops and is now asking me to give up my account so that he can get the global, I have created a golbal account user:SilkyShark just to be able to talk on de without ip edits and managed to be logged in as that user on en when doing updates to the story. Please do not revert again if I continue to do misstaks like that. Also do you have any idea on how a issue like this could be resolved. I'm still talking to him and trying to get him to give up his account but I doubt that he will. and accourding to the few suggested polices I have seen I will loose my account, but to chnge a 9k+ edit account to a different name and claim that account 1 week before SUL was turned on for sysop is not really in the rule book and is a bit unfair I think. any suggestion on what I should do?? --Stefan talk 01:28, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Appeasement
Have you even looked at the trash being used as "sources"? Or is the boilerplate message on my talk page meant to troll? Just curious. Thanks. 129.71.73.243 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 16:35, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * IP responded to on user talk page. --Kuk i ni  háblame aquí 18:12, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Why are you referring to the matter as "blanking" as if it is vandalism? I'm afraid your comments betray simple ignorance of the matter.  Carroll Quigley is a conspiratorialist author who is not credible to many people, other than those who believe in the "Anglo-American elite" conspiracy to establishment world government--which is why Quigley is popular in Lyndon LaRouche circles (which attack Wikipedia articles frequently).  The other sources are from Stalinist hacks, such as Ludo Martens, the Belgian Stalinist who made a last ditch effort to rehabilitate Uncle Joe's reputation in the 1990s with the very book that is being referenced to.  One of them is a Soviet publication.  You are affecting to allow this article to be citing the Soviet Union.  Furthermore, the "sources" are being used to back up a small minority view stated in the most tendentious and generalized way possible as fact, leaving the reader to go on a goose chase through whole books to ostensibly see support for what they just read.  I'm not aware of a Wikipedia policy which states that trash thrown onto an article should be kept for the fact that somebody threw it there.
 * For God's sake, people recognized this in the talk already. Since I've spent a comparatively inordinate amount of minutes (about ten) on something that would be self-evident to most people, I'll reprint this comment on the talk.  But if you think I'm going to sit and have tea conversations with an anonymous Stalinist on reprinting propaganda to an ostensibly neutral encyclopedia, you are wrong.  129.71.73.243 (talk) 19:25, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Despite the previous intervention, I can not thank you enough for your kind understanding. In my experience(s) as an anonymous casual editor, it is not often that administrators take kindly to informed, assertive anonymous editors who are not evidently malicious and insane, and are attempting to slightly improve this online encyclopedia against the efforts of those who should be ascribed those categories.  Thanks for not taking my criticism personally.  129.71.73.243 (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 06:41, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

List of Nontheists deletions
You just deleted most of the "List of nontheists" articles that were supposed to remain as ridirects as per the deletion discussion -- the point was to have the article history available for a merge to List of Atheists. It looks like someone replaced the original redirect with just the AfD notice, which caused them to be marked for speedy deletion. I noticed that, and it looks like I managed to salvage the first two before they were deleted, but you appear to have deleted the rest (along with, for some reason, List of atheists). Could you restore these articles as redirects so that they can be merged? Thanks. Klausness (talk) 16:40, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Whew...what a mess I made. So sorry about that...I think it is all back. Best, --Kuk i ni  háblame aquí 16:51, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for restoring them so quickly. Klausness (talk) 16:53, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, hmmm, it looks like another editor claims to have already done the merge. So that editor marked them for deletion, and then someone else noticed that the articles had nothing but a prod and so marked them for speedy deletion....  Not sure what the best way to proceed is.  It'd probably be good to leave them around for a few more days so that other editors can check the first editor's work (especially since the editor claiming that the merge is done is the one who nominated the articles for deletion in the first place).  Should we put a regular prod under the redirect (so the page still redirects)?  Should the pages go to WP:Redirects for discussion so that they can be deleted in a few days?   I guess whatever you think makes the most sense (or perhaps what another admin thinks is best, since I may have complicated your life enough here). Klausness (talk) 17:22, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello, members and friends of WP:LGBT! I'm not one to be writing newsletters, but I miss our cruise director, Miss Julie, and our project is drifting along with a few leaking plugs in the bottom of the boat. Hey, it happens. Every group we join goes through changes. If Wikipedia weren't so interesting it wouldn't also be so frustrating sometimes. And vice versa. More than one Wikiproject has tumbleweeds blowing through it, but this is one that can't afford to let that happen. Even if you pop in to the talk page of the project, you can let us know you're still around.

WP:LGBT's Role in HIV / AIDS articles
It wouldn't be a proper gay community without a li'l bit o' drama! That's right. If we aren't arguing about something, then we should be asking if we're still queer. Maybe that's for the best, since we know we're still kicking. Our most recent topic is how far the role of our project should go in dipping our toes into HIV/AIDS articles. The main AIDS article was delisted as a Featured Article last month, sadly. (Sending a swift kick to WP:Medicine.) A spirited discussion is available for your entertainment on the WP:LGBT talk page about just how much of HIV and AIDS should we take on. As ever, we'll take your opinions under advisement. We're going to have to, because it doesn't seem to have been settled.

Is Pride POV?
We have a pretty cool sidebar that identifies core LGBT articles. Its symbol is the iconic gay pride flag, much like other Wikiprojects have iconic symbols denoting the topic is a core subject in a series of articles. However, a question recently arose asking if the symbol itself is not neutral. Should a pride flag show up at the top of the article on Conversion therapy? How else would anyone know the article is about queer issues? Is there another symbol that is as widely recognized and that includes all our many splintered facets? At what point do we stop asking ourselves all these questions and just go have a mint julep on the verandah and stop caring?

Harvey Milk and Jim Jones
For the love of all that is holy, no Kool Aid jokes. However, an editor involved in pioneering San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk's article has included a section about the late supervisor's support of Jim Jones and the People's Temple. While it may be accurate, there is a Request for Comment regarding how much emphasis the section places on Milk's support in light of his overall political influence on the city, and indeed the rest of the United States. Milk's article is a sad one in more ways than one. It lacks the detail and heart that honors its subject. Anyone want to do a barter with me? I'll bring Harvey Milk to featured status (give me a month or two so I can read stuff), if you do something of equal value to WP:LGBT?? Make me an offer...

Queer Studies is offensive!
The established branch of study known as Queer studies was brought up as an category for deletion because an editor was offended by the use of "queer" in the title. It was overwhelmingly rejected mostly by the usernames I see here on our Wikiproject page. (A clue that I know you are out there, hiding...biding your time...) So, I wish I could congratulate you, but now I'm all confused by my sympathy for the editor who was offended. So, if you're reading this, Moni has a short memory and can't remember your username. Don't be put off by our demonstrative pushiness. Join us. We can always use involved editors.

Lambda Literary Awards
What can you do to help the project out? Be a wiki-fairy, on many levels. There are all kinds of articles that need help. Why, just this morning I removed those ugly wikify and cleanup tags from four articles at random. If you can put  around stuff, you can clean up articles. There's a list of articles that need attention at the top of the WP:LGBT talk page. Or you can start with the Lambda Literary Awards, where the goddess of my altar received a pioneering award, and was "reduced to rubble" by Katherine V. Forrest's wonderful speech. The 20th ceremony of the Lambda Literary Awards, which celebrates LGBT literature, took place in West Hollywood on May 29th. The page needs to be updated with the new winners, to be found on the official website.

Yeshayahu Leibowitz, Arthur C. Clarke and Bernard Montgomery
Why on earth would someone want to delete material about homosexuality? 'Tis truly a mystery. But these embattled articles have some random evil gnomes removing information that places these folks under our queer umbrella. Help us keep an eye out for the deletions. Take a peek at the articles, familiarize yourselves with the info, and be handy with the undo function in the article history. If tempers flare, take it to the Hall monitors and let them sort it out. Best solution is to make sure your sources are immaculate.

This month's Wiki stars
This is what I get for opening my big fat mouth and suggesting the newsletter should be revived. Here I am writing it. So, to pat self on back (*cough*) Mulholland Dr. became a featured article in May. This is A Good Thing since it is my personal declaration that there is no such thing as lesbian porn. I don't care what Benjiboi says about the video collection at goodvibes. Instead, we have hot women who connect on a deep, personal, soul-touching level, so this film should qualify as some of the skankiest porn available for lesbians. Plus, it's completely confusing and surreal! D'you think Laura Harring would care that the article is featured? I don't think so either... (Call me, Laura!)

Compulsive hoarding of templates
Once I saw a harrowing episode of Animal Planet's Animal Cops where this guy had, like, 250 cats in his house and it freaked me right out. I'm drawing a parallel between 250 cats and, well...three, really, templates in articles involving LGBT issues. Can we stick to one, maybe? In the aforementioned Harvey Milk's article there's a core LGBT template, a link to the LGBT portal, and a sidebar for LGBT rights. Jiminy! You'd think we weren't the folk to set industrial grey carpeting and track lighting in vogue. An LGBT footer was designed to link to articles of interest that aren't the aforementioned core articles. What do you think, can we have either an LGBT template for core articles, a footer for LGBT articles that are high profile but not core, or an LGBT rights template? As ever, anything's up for discussion on the WP:LGBT talk page.

The Violet Quill and magazines
Zigzig20s suggests we create an article on The Violet Quill, as it seems such a milestone in the advancement of gay/queer literature. Members of the Quill all have pages of their own (Edmund White, Christopher Cox, Robert Ferro, Michael Grumley, Andrew Holleran, Felice Picano, and George Whitmore). We need to find more info on the Quill per se to reference the page that we create. Perhaps Google Books - and libraries? - can help.

A number of magazines also need articles, perhaps most notably QW, LGNY, and Lesbian Feminist Liberation.

Mom's nagging for Pride Month
It's June, Pride month. Wear sunscreen, stay hydrated, get a designated driver, then go half-dressed in the streets find a girlfriend or boyfriend, or some homo who's standing there looking lonely and kiss 'em up real good. Remember, it all started 39 years ago when a bunch of drag queens just got fed the f*ck up by the cops raiding the bar and dragging them all out to the pokey again. Rock on, queens! Enjoy your celebrations. My town's is in October, and 200 people attend. I miss Denver.

Fresh faces to brighten our pages

Edit warring across multiple articles
Kukini, an editor called Whistling42 has been going through numerous different articles and changing "reparative therapy" to "conversion therapy." In some cases, such as the article about Exodus International, this involves misrepresentation of the sources that the articles are based upon, which refer to reparative therapy, not conversion therapy. I changed the article so that Exodus were quoted directly, in the hope of ending this dispute, but Whistling42 removed the quote and reintroduced the misleading reference to "conversion therapy." Several of these articles have already been changed back and forth several times, and there is no end in sight. Please intervene and do something to stop the spreading chaos.

 * Thanks for the contact, but to me, this whole thing smacks too much of a battle of POV. Also, from what I have seen, you have been changing conversion therapy to reparative therapy. --<font color="#885500">K<font color="#bb8800">u<font color="#eebb00">k i ni  háblame aquí 23:39, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
 * This isn't mainly about POV. It's about using sources properly. How, if a source talks about "reparative therapy" and does not use the expression "conversion therapy", is it appropriate to use this source to say that an organization favours "conversion therapy"? A direct quote is a perfectly sensible way to settle disputes of this sort, and Knulclunk agreed with me about this, but Whistling42 nonetheless insisted on changing the article back. Skoojal (talk) 23:55, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I will leave to y'all to iron out. Do your best to work with others and continue to build consensus on talk pages. This part of your efforts is very useful and important...ultimately leading to the best articles.

I don't know if you saw these...
... and I don't know if you wanted to, but I came across Kukini message and Message to kukini from me. I am not an admin, so I can't see them, but I just wanted to say "kudos" because if you're getting attack pages, you must be doing an excellent job.

A word far too long to be put in the header

I could not find a recent AFD for it, and the last one ended in a decision to keep. Just curious and sorry to bother. Many thanks. Atelaes (talk) 00:40, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I hate to be the guy who receives something and then complains that it's not good enough, but would you be willing to restore the talk page as well? Someone else deleted it because it was orphaned.  Thanks again.  Atelaes (talk) 18:07, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

ip user you blocked

User:Logitech95
Hi, Kukini, I saw you reverted User:Logitech95's POV blanking. Can you look at his/her contribution because the account seems to push his Japanese POV without no source, or altering a death toll unlike cited information or just want to stir up Japan-Korea related article. I guess is also the editor's IP address, given that almost similar POV and timing. I think this edit is made in bad faith. The article has a history for Japanese anon's vandalism last February when a big fire incident occurred. The editor made such edit right after receiving warnings by me for his blanking. On, he/she blanked info regarding Japanese war crimes and inserted very POV info with no source as well to look Koreans. The account was created the last month, so I think the anon needs to get some suitable warning from admins. Thanks. --Caspian blue (talk) 04:44, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Shoujo edit
Hi. I'm new to Wikipedia editing (just started today!), but not to shoujo manga. About your edit today, could I suggest some minor alterations? You wrote:

"In the early 50s, shoujo manga was created by beginning male mangaka, who would write shoujo for a time but then write shonen as their career became solid."

I'm afraid this could be misunderstood as meaning that male mangaka invented shoujo manga in the 50s. "beginning" as an adjective might also be confusing for some. (I had to reread it myself to figure out what you meant.) How about something like this?

"Throughout the 1950s, the vast majority of shōjo manga were made by younger male manga artists, who would work in the genre until they had established themselves and then, generally, move over to shōnen manga."

Sound better?

I am actually hoping to rewrite the whole history section, because as it stands it is a confusing series of disconnected and contradictory sentences. I also plan to add plenty of citations.

Just thought I should consult before going ahead and changing something you just contributed.

Cheers

Help?
Hello, Kukini. An RfC regarding the conduct of Bogdangiusca is taking place here. However, it is not listed here, for some reason.

Any idea why it isn't there, even though the RfC exists? Should it be added there manually? --Kuaichik (talk) 00:37, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi
If any vandals vandalise my page can you revert them? Thanks. Thar nton  345  06:42, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

I want to know why exactly my 'Vizzed Flash Bash' article was taken down and if I could get the HTML for it. Took about 3 hours to put that page together and the game has taken me hundreds of hours to develop (kinda disrespectful to take it down).

Hello. You obviously thought I had deleted it. See here or below, and also the names of the sections in my talk page. Also, it distinctly says on the talk page I occasionally use the specified IP address. I'm not using the account even though it's mine, because not only would I not be able to edit, but I'd also autoblock the IP address.--212.159.64.14 (talk) 16:14, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

British English on Kingdom Now theology
As the Kingdom Now theology page is about an American phenomenon, the American spelling is more fitting, but the British spelling of fulfilment is not a typo. Aunt Entropy (talk) 03:44, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah...but in an article about an American phenomenon, the British spelling IS incorrect as would be American spelling in an article about a British phenomenon. Regardless, my use of the term "typo" in the edit summary is not a good reason to revert the correction, particularly without clarification provided as to the rationale of the revert.
