I didn't vandalize any threads
STOP banning me. JEEZ, I made one polite and honest mistake and I get a threat to ban me for another year. Calm down man. Leave me alone. I have not cursed at anyone. I simply asked for proof that Rosemary will return in Guns of the Patriots.

That's it. When I get more money, I'm buying a modem that changes my IP address everytime I log on. I'm sick of the bannings for simple mistakes. I have been very polite and useful. I have not vandalized any threads.

AIV report
Thank you for making a report on Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to block users if they have received a recent final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize even after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again.  An as  talk? 17:19, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. &mdash; The Sunshine  Man (a.k.a Tellyaddict) 20:59, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Bogus warning?
Your posting of a warning at User talk:Danny] appears to be unrelated to (a) a revert that you did, or (b) the two edits by Danny of the New Mexico article, which I have reviewed, and found NOT to be vandalism. I suggest that you remove your warning from the talk page, and review what you did that caused the mistake, so that you're less likely to do it in the future.

Danny has been an editor since 2002, and was an employee of the Wikimedia Foundation until recently. You might also want to read Don't template the regulars. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 14:21, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

NSA "Vandalism"
Hey there, be more careful and do your research when accusing people of vandalism. My edits were made on the afternoon of 7/16, when I cleaned up some vandalism myself (Jeuvenile comparisons of NSA to big brother, comments about the political affiliations of the author, etc). I also noted that the changes I made were not reverted (which is good). I hope this clears any problems/confusion up.

About software cracking
It was not a test or spam. It was showing to users not to add spam links there in future. Thanks. 82.41.66.39 16:25, 1 August 2007 (UTC) Agree, my mistake. Mmernex 12:23, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Succession boxes
They are not vandalism, look at other film articles and you'll see what i mean {FerryUser 19:19, 2 August 2007 (UTC)}

Misunderstanding!
Hi. I have not vandalized anything. The information I have put on the Bono page is true! Its has been all over the newspaper and magazines. Duran Duran  17:57, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Have a look!

Superscript characters vs. characters in superscript tags
Hi,

I don't particularly mind your replacing &lt;sup>2&lt;/sup> and &lt;sup>3&lt;/sup> with ² and ³ in most cases, but at Birthday attack it was a bad change, because it caused inconsistent appearance between these and other superscripted numbers (since the superscript characters aren't identical to normal characters wrapped in superscript tags).

Thanks for your consideration,

About rotten.com edit
I'm fairly sure that quote or one just like it appeared on rotten or one of their spinoff sites, if I care to, I'll look for it, cite it, and put it up there again under the appropriate section. But thanks for your annoyingly close supervision. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

Thanks for the barnstar. Anything in particular I did that especially bears repeating? --Ronz (talk) 16:40, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Question on your recent changes
Hi Mmernex, I see you've been around for quite a while, I'm only in since few months now. I nevertheless wanted to ask you to double-check/confirm, that the big deletions that you made here were all intentional. I'm not much of an expert on this topic, and since I'm around only since few months, I'm also pretty new to most of the Wikipedia policies. I just happened to notice that the Obfuscated code article got really strongly reduced by you, and wanted to ensure that no unintentional deletes were done by you. Thanks for your patience and your understanding. Ptrb (talk) 23:39, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

They were intentional. The article had been marked as needing re-write for at least a year. And the examples were written from a first/second-person view (not cited from a third-party) which I felt were more tutorial than encyclopedic content. That's not to say I didn't like the content, or find it interesting, just that a wikibook might be a better place for it.

Speedy deletion nomination of Datagram socket


A tag has been placed on Datagram socket, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

not noteworthy or distinguished

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.
