Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page.
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
Please specify a descriptive "Subject/headline" for a new topic and separate subtopics by ===heading=== lines, if needed.
Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.

I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.

Thanks, didn't know how to compact it. Dog poster 21:58, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Siamenoside

Pepperpiggle, do you have a source for the edit involving Siamenoside looking like a white powder? Just wondering. Dog poster 18:31, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Recent edit to Bicycle

Thanks for helping with vandalism. Just a heads-up, though. Somehow the your edit actually inserted the vandalism back into the article. -AndrewDressel (talk) 20:48, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

DailyBooth

Thanks for helping me to stop the fools from adding stupid things to the DailyBooth wiki! --3marco3polo3 (talk) 19:12, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Boldon School

Regarding the deleted article at Boldon School, hopefully you remember the sequence of edits that occurred. Your revert of User:Luke a robson blanking the page and subsequent warning to him was not the correct thing to do. Since he was the original author of the article and he blanked the article, the correct thing to do was to re-tag the article with {{db-author}} and not issue any warning. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:25, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Okay. I'll try to do that next time I get in that situation. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 22:01, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Twilight Reversion

Hi there, I noticed you reverted my edit to remove vandalism from the twilight article. I'm assuming this was accidental, but be careful when reverting edits as you could end up reverting good edits. :) Set Sail For The Seven Seas 0° 26' 30" NET 00:01, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

That's fine. The main thing is the vandalism has been dealt with. Hmm, I wonder it showed up as random symbols. Also, it seems that huggle reverted to a revision that still had sections missing! I guess some things are better done the old fashioned way. :) Set Sail For The Seven Seas 2° 15' 45" NET 00:09, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Google Search

Hello, I'm sure it wasn't your intention, but this edit didn't exactly fix the problem. You reverted to an obviously vandalized version of the page. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 00:16, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, i realized that. I did go back to change my edits, but it was taking an insanely long time to save once i clicked Save, so i tried to do it again, but my internail failed. Not meaning to make excuses, it's good that the page is back up. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 22:01, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Yeah I noticed that too. Sorry for complaining. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 01:15, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the revert on my user page. =) -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 21:46, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks...

...for that. --Rrburke^(talk) 22:59, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Persistant vandalism

I was going to file an AIV report yesterday with all the persistent vandalism/attacks, but I was too busy to off-wiki for anything other than quick reverts. Looks like things are taken care of for the time being with your page semi-protected. Cheers.--kelapstick (talk) 14:40, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the thought. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 16:50, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Sorry!

I apologise for the accidental warning and the revert on Pug. I accidentally went to revert the vandal a couple seconds after you made the revert. Very sorry. --Meaghan ^{guess who :)} 22:25, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

The exact same thing happened again. Once again, very sorry, --Meaghan ^{guess who :)} 14:53, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Zugang Wikippedia (English)

Lieber Pepperpiggle, Ich lese gern in Wikipaedia (Deutsch), (English) und (Arabisch) und verfasse manchmal Schreibe ich in diesen Sprachen. Im Moment ist mein Zugang in Wikipedia (English)) gestört bzw. nicht mehr möglich. Wenn ich (English) anklicke, taucht die (Deutsche)- Version auf. Was ist lose? Könnten Sie bitte mein Zugang in Wikipedia (English) wieder herstellen?, Danke Mnmngb (talk) 12:38, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Mnmng, your access to the English Wikipedia is not working, probably beause you were blocked for vandalizing. Your edits may have been constructive, but they were in German on the English Wikipedia. If you wish to edit the German Wikipedia, go to de:

*Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 12:54, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Hallo Pepperpiggle,

inzwischen weiß ich, warum der Zugriff auf Wikipedia(English) bei mir gestört war bzw. warum hat meine Korrespondenz mit Ihnen Ihr Gästebuch gestört. Auf der Hauptseite bei mir habe ich nämlich die folgende Einstellung gefunden:"Google: Toolbar hat diese Seite automatisch in [Deutsch] übersetzt." Wie kam es zu diese Einstellung kam, das weiß ich nicht. Jedenfalls, es war doch keine beabsichtigte Vandalismus. Ich danke Ihnen für Ihre Bemühungen, Gruß.--Mnmngb (talk) 19:52, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Hi. thanks for reverting the vandalism on my userpage. ♦ Jongleur¹⁰⁰ ♦ ^talk 16:02, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism

Hi, I was wondering if I could vandalize your user page? I really want to, but I thought I'd be civil and ask first. Thanks. 68.28.155.116 (talk) 22:18, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

If you so badly want to vandalize a page go to the Sandbox, where Wikipedians can test their edits... no profanity though. By the way, the answer to your question is no. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 23:28, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

G7 criteria for Speedy Deletion

Part 1

Hi Pepperpiggle! Great work on reverting vandalism. I just wanted to pass one suggestion. When there is a new article, and the only editor who made any substantial work on the article blanks the page, it is usually just easier to tag with {{db-g7}} rather than revert - especially if the page was already tagged for speedy deletion for other reasons. That way, you save having to place a caution on the editor's talk page, especially if it was their intention to have the article deleted. Singularity42 (talk) 21:43, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 21:45, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Part 2

Thanks for the heads-up - I reverted the blanking because the blanking resulted in the db-spam tag being deleted. I guess either would apply? --SquidSK ^(1MC^•^log) 21:59, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

In fact, it looks [1] like someone else thought the spam tag should go back. Either way, that article is toast! --SquidSK ^(1MC^•^log) 22:01, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Agreed! *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 23:02, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Re: Question...

Re your message: There's something new I haven't seen. You can revert them as it is your talk page and policy does not prohibit you from removing comments to you. As for warning them, probably not work the effort. Just ignore and it move on. Unless they come back and then you could warn them for being disruptive. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 00:55, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

I would have accepted their offer if you wanted. XD --Thejadefalcon ^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 01:02, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Re your message: Yes, you can revert that. Personal attacks are not allowed anywhere. It got reverted and then reverted again. If the problem persists on your editor review, leave me a note and I will semi-protect the page. Or you can request it to be semi-protected at WP:RFPP if I'm not around. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 18:52, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 21:23, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Re your message: Without knowing which article you are referring to... {{db-vandalism}} is probably fine. You could do {{db-hoax}} if the article is like: "Joe User is the strongest man in the entire universe and can beat Chuck Norris with one finger" or something stupid like that. There is also {{db-attack}} if it's an attack article. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 23:22, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for catching the vandalism on my userpage and reverting it. Much obliged. DJBullfish 21:21, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Editor review

In case you hadn't noticed, I left you a short review. --Thejadefalcon ^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 21:40, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, it's a very good point. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 21:41, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

No problem. If I remember when I have time, I'll try to expand on my review, but no promises. --Thejadefalcon ^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 21:43, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Turkey

Hi, thanks for the turkey! Dog poster 18:03, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism

Seriously, what the bloody hell did you do to earn all this crap? --Thejadefalcon ^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 05:38, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

I...started...these...articles. As well as these ones:

this

this and...

this

At least I think that's what his attacking me for. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 22:21, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

... roads... why the hell would anyone get worked up over a road? Oh, and you don't need to put a message on my talk page. I have this one on my watchlist. --Thejadefalcon ^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 22:25, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay. I agree with you, though the articles may not be extremely useful, they give important information. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 22:27, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm not suggesting that they're not notable, I'm just thinking... why get into a flame war over a road? (facepalm) Vandals never cease to amaze me. --Thejadefalcon ^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 22:45, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandals never cease to amaze me. Especially when they continually attack one editor for making articles about roads. *Pepper piggle*^*Sign!* 22:50, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

You were more Alert than I was

Thanks for fixing this. I was trying some features in my sandbox and forgot to change the heading. I can't believe that I didn't notice the box hadn't appeared. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 06:53, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

the box is kind-of hard to see if you aren't looking for it... good work with the new categories, though. ^Pepper·_piggle 12:07, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Banff, Alberta

I have failed your GA nomination of Banff, Alberta, as the article is still in need of significant expansion and sourcing. Comments have been left at Talk:Banff, Alberta/GA1. Thanks, Reso lute 15:10, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Re:SD/A7

Hey Pepperpiggle, thanks for the tip. I do usually use the more specific named alias to the template when doing manual tagging, but Twinkle uses the numbers automatically (unless I'm mistaken, a distinct possibility). Thanks nevertheless! Zelse81 (talk) 22:27, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
