User talk:Megaversal

Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia, the greatest encyclopedia on Earth! You seem to be off to a good start. Hopefully you will soon join the vast army of Wikipediholics! You may wish to review the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, as well as the avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages. You may also want to check out Merge, for information about merging, renaming and moving pages. The Wikipedia directory is also quite useful. In addition, you might want to add yourself to the new user log; if you made any edits before getting an account, you may wish to assign those to your username.

By the way, an important tip: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments.

Hi! I'd like to congratulate you on being the first other person to use one of my userboxes!--Whytecypress 01:57, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

L rocks your socks, bitch!
That has to be more userboxes than I once had. Damn. Dave == Win -- Alai 08:46, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Please read: ThePlanet has been listed before as an open proxy, but it is a large hosting company. Banning the entire class B subnet seems extreme if there are valid (and contributing users) on the same subnet (like me).

 * I have left a message with the blocking admin asking him to take a look at the request. Is http://www.theplanet.com your ISP?  It looks like a webhosting service (which I suppose one of their customers could be using it to host an open proxy or something). -- BigDT  ( 416 ) 14:33, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you, BigDT. It is partially a web-hosting service (and admittedly, ThePlanet has been blocked once before by Dmcdevit) but they handle a lot of other things too (my connection to the Internet is routed through a company that goes through their data center). Last time, I emailed Dmcdevit and the block was removed (it was on the 67.18.0.0/16 block that time). Megaversal 15:44, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Given his prior involvement I've left a note for Dmcdevit asking him to comment on the unblock request. Newyorkbrad 20:58, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

The problem here is that (correct me if I'm wrong) if the ThePlanet has both web hosting and conventional internet services, they don't publish the IPs of each, only giving huge ranges belonging to the comppany. Looking at the edits on the whole 69.93.0.0/16, I don't see enough evidence to support a block (<25 edits in the last two months, including six for 3 different unblock requests; not much vandalism). I've unblocked. Dmcdevit·t 21:10, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, all three of you. I appreciate the time taken to look at this. Considering the whopping <25 edits, this wasn't exactly high priority magic. Megaversal 01:35, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Chirinuruwowaka
I have nominated Chirinuruwowaka, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Chirinuruwowaka. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Wikipedia Loves Art
First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject, or I happen to know personally).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia Loves Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there!  howcheng  {chat} 00:48, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
