removing the entry
The entry that is currently up was posted merely as a substitute for the previous entries and is not meant to be a comprehensive biography. The original entry demostrated considerable bias on the part of the author and contained unreliable references, as noted by RandomHumanoid, among others. Another user suggested removing the entry on the grounds that Mr. Difrawi is not an independently notable person. I agree. In fact, I have contacted Wikipedia on Mr. Difrawi's behalf to request that the entry be removed, but as yet there has been no response to the message.

Riana, do you agree that the entry should be removed? If so, can you advise me on the best way to go about doing that? I appreciate any advice you can offer in this matter. DylanKate 19:16, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Please consider protecting another version...
At least revert to a version not identified as vandalism if you're going to keep protected, e.g. 139907092. The version you protected has been identified as vandalism and accused of being an ad for the individual and company, etc...

unbirthday?

Belated congrats!
Happy birthday Riana! Yeah I know I'm a bit late now, but I prefer to congratulate you now rather than not congratulating at all. So, I hope you had a nice day with lots of joy, surrounded by your loved ones. Here's a little treat for you. :-) Festive regards, Hús  ö  nd  23:56, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Question regarding vandalism
First of all happy belated birthday! Secondly, the article First World Problems was created, sent to AfD and later deleted this week as a hoax. During the AfD, the was evidence of an internet forum behind the hoax, and a large number of forum members creaking sockpuppets to continue the hoax and vandalize the page. The forum now is plotting ANOTHER vandal attack and is explaining how to get around Wikipedia blocks that were placed on the accounts. I honestly wanted to give you a heads up as an admin user, as I get the feeling there might be a heavy vandal/sockpuppet attack in the near future from this group, and wanted to know what, if anything should be done to prevent this.

Copyright
Hi Riana, On copyright tags, I normally use GFDL, which seems to give other people the right to use my shot. Is there a licence that doesn't give people this right? I'm having trouble understanding all this copyright stuff.Thanks for your time.

WNAZ-FM
Hi yet again, Riana—tired of me yet? :) Listen, I did a cursory check of the WNAZ-FM article against the station's official website and our article appears to be an almost complete copyvio. Unless the station website copied from WP (highly unlikely, but can be checked through Wayback Machine), I think the article should be speedily deleted and stubified.

List of films by gory death scene (NOT a reverse request)
Hello, I had this page on my bookmarks, just realized it had been deleted. I was wondering if it could be "brought back" (for lack of a better term) so that I may copy it to my harddrive. I am not asking for the delete decision to be reversed, just want a copy of the page (links and all). If you could help me or if this is possible (in some way), I would appericate it.

RE:Miranda
Hmm... Have you been on IRC lately? Miranda seems to like to harass me and my Russian friends. Saying that I thought she was trolling because of the bitterness between us, does not constitute a personal attack. Having her going around flipping out on Requests for adminship/Crazytales telling users that they ARE trolls (notice how she said they were trolls, I said I THOUGHT she was trolling). She then goes to "remove" another "personal attack" and completely change my wording. Well, I don't mean to seem mean (hehe), but I think the situation is a little un-fair here, and I have informed another administrator that tried to mediate us on IRC (something that I agreed to, she refused to even talk to anyone about it). Have a super day, and I hope I have no pissed you off to bad! =) =) -- trey  04:48, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm fine with her removing what she believes are personal attacks, but going around

changing all the my comments, pisses me off. I didn't name her name, although, she is doing a fine job attacking everyone on that RfA. Wikipedia is not fucking censored if anyone forgot, so I can say Holy Shit support if I want to. Miranda doesn't have any right to remove that. That is refactoring comments. I am trying to let her go, but she follows my contribs around. -- trey  05:01, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Ayman Ahmed El-Difrawi
I undid a revision on the said article after you protected it, since reversions of the same were reverted by Miranda and others. Now, I regret that I didn't investigate the warring more thoroughly, because a lot of people are demanding reversions to their own versions. Can you help me look for a revision that will help me escape all these claims of libelous statements?  bibliomaniac 1 5  BUY NOW! 19:39, 23 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi Riana, can you read my recent comments in Talk:Ayman Ahmed El-Difrawi? I'd like to remove the statements clearly violating WP:LIBEL if the article is going to stay in its current form for the time being.  If you can give me temporary editing access, I will simply remove these uncited statements.  That will at least leave the article in a stable, acceptable form until someone can dig up the proper references.  -- R andom H umanoid ( &rArr; ) 19:58, 23 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I responded to your edits on Talk:Ayman Ahmed El-Difrawi. You did a great job cleaning it up, but I think it still needs several more changes if it's going to be left this way.  -- R andom H umanoid ( &rArr; ) 03:06, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Deleted for being MySpacey
Hi Riana I attempted to make my User:garryegan entry as non My-Spacey as possible. I think I need a new picture (not the wedding picture). I may have underestimated the intended theme of Wikipedia. I am a search engine engineer and Internet consultant and am similar to another successful Wiki entry

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Clay

I had intended to get a Wiki entry like this one. But you cannot submit yourself and even though me and Bruce are competitors, he gets a Wiki and I don't. :(

 * 2. (pictured on the right) - a loving hug for my dearest friend, and the promise that if you ever need another my arms are always welcoming and I will always be here for you.
 * 3. Both plus a lifetime supply of Copyediting and image cleanup by Editor at Large.

I hope everything goes well in life and with exams and health and friends and family, and I hope you know that if you ever need a listening ear I am just a click or a poke away :)

Page protect
Hi, I noticed you blocked an IP that i reported. I also think it may be wise to protect the page and revert to my revision. I also suspect that this user has another two ips that he vandalises with, one of the others is User:222.153.78.138 (Wonder-Contributor)(&lt;S&gt;)


 * Which page is that? Please consider changing your signature, it should relate at least marginally to your username. Riana (talk)  10:22, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * (ec) It's pretty. BTW, Moreschi just cleaned up your sig on this page. You might want to check out WP:SIG and maybe give it a bit of a cleanup before someone complains! - A l is o n  ☺ 10:24, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Before someone complains? I am complaining, right now. That signature is ridiculous. Please make it related to your username, and significantly reduce its length. To have such a signature clogging up the edit window is highly uncivil. Moreschi Talk 10:27, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * So I go out of my way to revert vandalism and spam from wikipedia and to contribute to so many other things and this is the thanks I get. No I am not being uncivil and I think it is quite petty that you would pick on this espacially when I don't get paid to work on wikipedia. I find this very off-putting. I like to have a new signiture every fortnight or so because this allows me to have some variety without starting a new account or being accused as a sock puppet. So from now on fix your own vandalism and remove your own spam. The one and only (Wonder-Contributor)(&lt;S&gt;)
 * Do you think my talk page gimmick is uncivil User talk:Mindys12345 (Wonder-Contributor)(&lt;S&gt;)

Irish slur
Did you read what I posted here fully before removing it? It points out that the name contains a racial slur, see the definition. This has nothing to do with "reproductive functions", it is just that the part of the policy that mentions slurs also mentions "reproductive functions". Until(1 == 2) 14:53, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Ahem, yes, I did. Irishmic could just as easily mean 'Michael from Ireland'. Please use Usernameconcern for usernames which are not blatant violations of policy. Cheers, Riana (talk)  14:55, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Wow, so you can have slurs in your name as long as there is an innocent meaning as well. Got it. Until(1 == 2) 14:57, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

 * lmao Wikidan829 15:05, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * While I don't see how his motives will effect if people are offended by the name, I guess it is your decision(at least I assume it is). I will just look the other way when I see the name, and if I see it to often I will just go to another website. Until(1 == 2) 15:04, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It's not a final decision at all. Take it to RFCN if it bothers you that much. Riana (talk)  15:05, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * If it bothers me that much I will just leave, and so will other people offended by it. I already made an effort to report it, I don't know what a RFCN is. I notified the folks in charge, nothing happened. Even if I was willing to go through this RFCN thing, think of the other users who just close the window and don't come back when they see things like that. No, I will respect your decision, and abide by its consequences. No hard feelings, reasonable people can disagree. Until(1 == 2) 15:11, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Until(1 == 2), I'm sure there are a lot worse things you can call an Irish person, and I'd be shocked if any were really offended by it. It's only playing on the stereotype that all their last names start with "Mc" (stereotype != true). I would think this is hardly offensive to any reasonable person, especially if this person is Irish himself. This is just silly. Wikidan829 15:10, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Really? Cuz where I am from it is a great way to start a fight. I guess it varies from location to location. Either way, your call. Until(1 == 2) 15:11, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I think the fight has a lot more to do with the spirit behind it, and not the word itself. Wikidan829 15:13, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * What fight? Sounds exciting! :p WP:RFCN - that's the place to go. There's no one 'in charge' here. Riana (talk)  15:14, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I noticed. Until(1 == 2) 15:17, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Friends, Wikipedians, lend me your ears, and please drop it, right now. Stop wasting time here. Either try WP:RFCN, or leave it. Or else. Thank you. Moreschi Talk 15:16, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Drop it? Wasting time? Geez, sorry. I was only trying to figure out the rules here, apparently just reading the rules is not enough. I will drop it, sorry if I upset you. Until(1 == 2) 15:17, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Some people perceived it as a fight. haha Oh well. Thanks for your concern Moreschi. Until(1 == 2), when you post it at RFCN please provide a link, I'd like to see this one play out. Wikidan829 15:18, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Nah, I am going to drop it. Good advice. Until(1 == 2) 15:19, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Ohhhhh, RFCN is "Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names", now I see what you were talking about. Did not connect the letters with the name at first. Until(1 == 2) 15:29, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Yep, if you post it there, the community can take a look at it and come to an agreement whether it should be considered offensive or not. This way it is just beyond my or Riana's opinion Wikidan829 15:41, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

First you disagree with me about userboxes in general, and now you're saying I can't promote Willy on Wheels if I become a 'crat? Geez, next thing I know, you'll probably tell me that I shouldn't delete Main Page. EVula // talk // &#9775;  // 20:54, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I may be many things, but I am no hypocrite, sir. Riana (talk)  20:57, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Touché. :) EVula // talk // &#9775;  // 21:01, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Suck = pop music
Haha, I just realized the "suck" on your userpage links to pop music. That was an unexpected surprise that made my day! hmwith talk  00:00, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Heh! Glad you liked it :) Riana (talk)  21:24, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

I am being hunted!
Why did you block me? I did not do any vandalism in the Afro-Brazilian article.

User João Felipe C.S is the one who is doing vandalism there.

He is changing the real number of Afro-Brazilians (45 million, according to IBGE census) to a mere 11 million, which does not make any sense.

I reverted his vandalism and you blocked me. João Felipe C.S is the one who deserved to be blocked, not me.

I am being hunted by him. All my contributions are being reverted by João Felipe C.S in the Afro-Brazilian article and in the Brazil article, with no justification.

I think you should talk to him. Opinoso 20:58, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

please write me
Hi Riana, could you please send me a talk page message? I'm trying out a different colour for my new messages bar, and I can't tell how it will look until I get a message. Thanks! -- Kyok o  21:43, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Eww, that's much too dark. I'll try again. Hold on... -- Kyok o  21:49, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Now I get a bar that looks like the main background colour of my page (the one in which all the boxes float), but there's an orange border that I don't like. I'd rather have one of the other purple shades of my page as the border, but I don't know how to do this. You're welcome to fiddle around with my monobook.css if you want. -- Kyok o  21:54, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry about the delay... you know how it is with tabbed browsers, trying to do many things at once. Your adjustments look nice, now the new message bar looks like the boxes on my page, with rounded corners (at least on Firefox). I might still play around with the colours, but thanks for your help! -- Kyok o  22:13, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * OK, now it has the background colour of my boxes, but the outer border of my page, if that makes any sense. Thanks again! -- Kyok o  22:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Please, help me.
User João Felipe C.S is reverting my edits in the Afro-Brazilian page with no justifications.

Please, you have to do something. Opinoso 22:27, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

My dearest Riana

 * I thought Riana had her b-day a few months ago :). Well, whenever it was/is, Happy Birthday from me also! -- (Review Me) R Parlate Contribs@ (Let's Go Yankees!) 01:23, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmm...where in the RFA did he say he liked my user page? Also, I can barely tell you ripped it off, because you took so little. And don't worry about getting me mad. You'll have to go to this mean, wiki-hate spreading user. :) -- (Review Me) R Parlate Contribs@ (Let's Go Yankees!) 01:32, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Stress
Thanks :) Most of it is caused by the 95 degree heat, I think, but taking on a bold proposal is also a major part of it (the mailing list isn't very helpful). &mdash; Deckiller 23:17, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I can't imagine how bad IRC is (in comparison)... &mdash; Deckiller 23:31, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmm...well that's good. But if this guideline rewrite passes (hopefully), it will have much larger effects than spoiler tags. I'm bracing for a very lengthy debate. Perhaps 2+ months. &mdash; Deckiller 23:45, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
