 * no its the talk page of the article you were editing, click the 'talk' tab (hope I didn't sound rude)-- Lerd the nerd wiki defender  16:32, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Reviewing
Please be more careful when reviewing. Demba Ba haven't moved yet. News report only state that he is in talks with Chelsea. KTC (talk) 17:03, 2 January 2013 (UTC)


 * ok, sorry I don't know anything about Demba, but now I know He's not moved I'll make sure to reject any edits that say he has.-- Lerd the nerd wiki defender  17:08, 2 January 2013 (UTC)


 * The level of edits are such that I've just semi-protected the article for 3 days, so nothing to worry about for a few days. KTC (talk) 17:11, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * thanks!-- Lerd the nerd wiki defender  21:52, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

discussion-vs-reporting user names
Hi, and thanks for your contributions at WP:UAA. If you see a name that you believe is a blatant violation, it is better to simply report it as opposed to warning them and reporting at the same time. The warning suggests just changing it, but the report is essentially asking for a block. It can be a bit confusing for a new user to be told "hey let's discuss this" and then told a few minutes or hours later "hey you cannot use this name and it is now blocked". Not a huge deal, not an actual policy violation or anything, just best practice at UAA, it makes things much less complicated for reviewing admins. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:14, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

ok dokey! :)-- Lerd the nerd wiki defender  22:15, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Let me Explain...
"I Shot the Sheriff" as performed by Warren G is a completely different song from Bob Marley's version. Yes it shares the same title and yes it shares the same chorus, but if you look at songs such as "Just a Friend 2002", Just the Two of Us" and Warren G's own What's Love Got to Do with It", you'll see why these songs are seperate from the original.

 * Notes from the Guild of Copy Editors



The March 2014 backlog elimination drive is a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles in need of copyediting. The drive begins on March 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on March 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to copyedit all articles tagged in December 2012 and January 2013 and to complete all requests placed in January 2014. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copyedits at least one article, and special awards will be given to the top five in the following categories: number of articles, number of words, number of articles over 5,000 words, number of articles tagged in December 2012 and January 2013 and the longest article. We hope to see you there!

Bot usernames
Re this UAA report you made and the message you left on the user's talk page: There is actually a specific warning template, uw-botun, to use in situations like this where someone has registered an unsuffixed "-bot" name but hasn't edited yet. So I switched the warning you gave to that one—it's easier for the user to understand. Daniel Case (talk) 18:16, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Stroud
oi lerdthenerd you undid my post?!?! excuse me but if you were from Stroud you would know that it is a local talking point and many people have looked this up before hence why I wrote it. It is also stated on many other websites that it is slang, originated from stroud and so please explain why you are dismissing my local community?? You may not find it appeasing but I assure you it is something to people here. What gives you the right to say you have knowledge over such matters???? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hideyokidshiyowife (talk • contribs) 11:07, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

A certain user insists and claims that I 'mistranslated' some sources, but then refuses many requests to show why he thinks it is the case.
Hello. A certain user (by the nickname of RLoutfy) insists and claims that I 'mistranslated' some sources in many occasions e.g. (1), (2), (3), ...etc but he refused to answer many requests to show why he thinks I mistranslated and misrepresented those sources, particularly here, where he even couldn't properly write with the language those sources were written in. What should I do then? --CounterTime (talk) 21:24, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
