Statement
Can you fix your signature on that statement that you just made? I moved my statement, and apparently it screwed up the page. Thanks. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 15:31, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I moved it because I thought that you and Thatcher were responding to Balloonman. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 15:33, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * ✅ Doh. And I thought Dunc moved it... but same goes to you: don't move my comments. On very rare occasions I will put one in the wrong place and I will fix it myself. In this case, it was precisely where I intended it to be, and you should assume that people are doing that. → ROUX   ₪  15:36, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Move your comments?
Doesn't look like it. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration_Committee/Noticeboard&diff=314356207&oldid=314355645 but as I said later in the thread, possibnly caused by the anti edit conflict software.

 * Have you stopped beating your wife yet? You have about five minutes to remove this repetition of your disgusting personal attack or I will do it for you. → ROUX   ₪  15:37, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * You can remove what you like from your talk page - but how about removing your false accusation that I moved your comment? And how about you tell everyone else to stop beating a dead horse, not just someone who can point to earlier evidence that Pastor Theo was a lousy admin? DuncanHill (talk) 15:42, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Redacted, then. And you don't seem to understand; you bring this up at eveyr possible opportunity. You're beating a dead horse, and unless you have anything constructive to say, you are no longer welcome to post here. → ROUX   ₪  15:45, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Miscellany for deletion

Trainee
I don't mind if we call it "Trainee" in some contexts, but if the vandal who's being blocked thinks they're being blocked by a "trainee", it only gives them ammunition. We could call them "trainees" among ourselves I guess. Is there another suitable word? (Watching) - Dank (push to talk) 18:38, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Someone likely to bitch and moan about 'trainee' would probably also bitch about 'assistant' or indeed any other term which indicates a junior role. Freshman, maybe? Though that would only have meaning to North Americans. → ROUX   ₪  18:41, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think all the terms have potential problems. - Dank (push to talk) 20:45, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Which is why debundling is probably a better way forward. I'm working on a fairly massive post discussing it. → ROUX   ₪  20:49, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

You want an apology
You're right. I'm screwing up. I hate it when I lose my patience and immediately become hypocritical. I'm sorry for doing it. -GTBacchus(talk) 20:58, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Much better. I shall therefore also consider your threat of a block retracted, unless you block yourself first. → ROUX   ₪  21:02, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Nope. You're not in a position to make demands. If I block you, though. I'll go offline for just as long. That's a promise. -GTBacchus(talk) 21:04, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh hooray, more throwing the admin weight around. Well done, really. No, I will consider it retracted, and if you do block me it will not go well for you. → ROUX   ₪  21:05, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok. -GTBacchus(talk) 21:06, 17 September 2009 (UTC)


 * And you have my apology for whatever role I've had in fanning the flames of our discussion derailment. --Hammersoft (talk) 21:01, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Not good enough, sorry. Until you acknowledge your tendentious behaviour, there's really no point in saying anything. "I apologise for whatever I have done that may have offended someone" is what politicians say. → ROUX   ₪  21:02, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Absurd
The fact that you think posts to a general noticeboard observed by many if not all of the community, to seek further input on a matter of community consensus is canvassing, is absurd. I've reposted the section and would like an apology. -- M  ask?  06:17, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
 * That's ridiculous. No other discussions canvas on that board, it's strictly for requesting admin attention. Admittedly I came to this page to complain about Roux's conduct on that MfD, but this is jsut ridiculous. That does not belong on ANI.

How long
How long do you have to edit before your ready for adminship?Dr. Szląchski (talk) 00:33, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Depends on the user. Some people are never ready. As a general rule of thumb, 6 months and 5000+ edits seems to be a rough minimum. You should also ensure you have a good understanding of policy and contribute to projectspace (any page that begins with Wikipedia:). → ROUX   ₪  00:56, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

"Hidden Pages" nonsense
Congratulations on standing up to these people who think Wikipedia is an open site to play on. I found you were doing this because I came back to one of them I had seen with the intention of taking action against it myself, and found you were already involved. The notion that "as long as it's only on user pages it doesn't matter" is all too prevalent on Wikipedia. You know, and I know, and all serious Wikipedians know, what Wikipedia is not meant to be, and we need to work at making sure it is not. So to speak. JamesBWatson (talk) 07:12, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

 * GHC regardless of your intentions, you don't seem to have a full grasp on what's being asked of you. For example, if you don't know to make comments on talk pages and not user pages, it's probably best to slow down on talk of running bots.

Re: revert
I'm not going to revert you back because revert warring is even worse than the initial revert.

"Another in the recent spate of hidden page challenges, all of which seem to be coming from users who are somehow linked, or somehow magically find each other immediately upon registering.".

This is the message I read and correct me if I'm wrong: I think you are talking about User:Vetgirl13 and User:Naturegal25 and how it seems as if they are my sockpocket accounts. If that is what your thinking your wrong. Ashley Dennis (Vetgirl123) and Avery Dennis (Naturegal25) are my friends and me and my sister (User:Meganmccarty) told them about wiki and they created their accounts together. That's why it seems as if they created accounts at the same time which I believe was one of the questions in your message.

If this is not why my page is being deleted, please message me back as soon as possible and PLEASE do not delete anything until I know whats going on. Thank you. BIO NIC  LE  233  17:34, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Okay. One more time to make sure I am clear with this: You tagged it for deletion because I edited it to much or because I put to much social chat on each page!? That's crazy! The "social chat" on each page is actually instructions on how to play (because mine is a bit harder then others). Besides, everyone edits their hidden page once in awhile. Why are you picking on ME and not everyone else who has a hidden page. BIO NIC  LE  233  22:12, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

"Picked on" was not the right word choice I admit, but hidden pages have been around for a long time and many users have them. It seems as if when I try to make something that I'm really excited about, it always gets deleted. I mean, why MINE? Why MINE!? BIO NIC  LE  233  22:31, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

I know that. What my question is this: Are you trying to delete ALL the hidden pages on wiki? If not, why only SOME and not all? And can you give me some history on when this hidden pages became quote, "a waste of time". Last time I checked, admins, users, and everybody in between had no problems with hidden pages. And yes, I know that wiki is not made for hidden pages. All a want to know is that how, and when, and why this whole thing started. BIO NIC  LE  233  23:14, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
 * In order: Only the ones I see; because I can't be arsed finding them all; has been part of the policy on what is an is not acceptable in userspace and Wikipedia is not a social networking service either explicitly or implictly since they were written. As it turns out, you are exactly and completely wrong about people having no problems with hidden pages. If that were the case, people--a wide variety, in fact--wouldn't be saying they should be deleted. So.. well I'm not really what else to tell you, except this, and as bluntly as possible: get over it. Wikipedia is not your private little playground for playing stupid little games--and yes, the hidden page thing is possibly one of the stupidest 'games' I have ever seen online. If you want to do that sort of thing there are tons of free webhosts out there, and even more social networking sites for playing on. Wikipedia is neither of those things; now I strongly suggest you go and start doing something that will actually contribute productively towards the building of an encyclopedia. If you are not interested in doing that, you are likely to be blocked from editing sooner or later. It's happened before. And that, I believe, is the end of this conversation. If you have something constructive to add, then by all means do so. If all you have is more complaining about having to follow the rules, please take it somewhere else and do not waste my time. → ROUX   ₪  00:06, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

 * There was not a single attack there--and as someone approximately as devoted to improving the encyclopedia as Bionicle is, I'm not really sure your opinion carries all that much weight when we're talking about how to improve the encyclopedia. Moreover, you don't understand policy and are apparently unwilling to learn. That is not my problem. I have attempted to explain to your oddly-connected little group of people exactly what the problem with these pages is, and pointed you towards sites that would better serve your purposes, as in the aggregate you guys have little to no interest in improving the encyclopedia. → ROUX   ₪  02:25, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

And you did, in fact, say I was attacking. Quote: "and you just started to...well attack him". → ROUX   ₪  14:35, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

You know why 72% of my edits are to talk pages, just look at User:Spongefrog's talk page.

They tend to increase my goodwill (and tolerance) towards my fellow humans, after I've been dealing with idiots overly annoying persons too long. <font color="187ba0" size="2px">Sophus Bie  (talk) 07:17, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

My Deletion Page
Okay, first of all, my name isn't Nemesis. It's Nemesis of Reason, and second, why are you always picking on me for my hidden page? There are thousands of other users with hidden pages and out of all of them, you pick me. WHY???-- Nemesis of  Reason  11:40, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

USA Political Navboxes?
Hello Roux, What do you think about these here navboxes?<sub style="color:#0000FF;">BLuE <sup style="color:#FF0000;">DOg Tn  04:41, 27 September 2009 (UTC)


 * I think the first is relatively restrained, though I would avoid red text in the header, as redlinks tend to have a specific meaning on Wikipedia. The second is unpleasantly garish. → ROUX   ₪  04:44, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I changed the first.<sub style="color:#0000FF;">BLuE <sup style="color:#FF0000;">DOg Tn  05:06, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The USA flag shall always be put on the right of a logo or other flag in the USA because this signifies honor and respect.<sub style="color:#0000FF;">BLuE <sup style="color:#FF0000;">DOg Tn  05:21, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The red is still unpleasantly garish. The first version was much nicer. And we honour the USA flag no more and no less than any other flag on Wikipedia, so no, it shall not 'always be put on the right of a logo or other flag'. → ROUX   ₪  15:45, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I still don't know how to incorporate the red, but I fixed the flag issue...<sub style="color:#0000FF;">BLuE <sup style="color:#FF0000;">DOg Tn  23:27, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Another example
Here is one that looks like the Canadian one, but with a few exceptions to be USA!<sub style="color:#0000FF;">BLuE <sup style="color:#FF0000;">DOg Tn  00:12, 28 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Apart from the stars, it's nice. The thing is, there is no simple symbol that works well at small sizes. → ROUX   ₪  00:30, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, took away the stars, and you make the choice of the flag to go above or below or to the left of the seal! I like it a very bunch.<font color="#0000FF">BLuE<font color="#FF0000">DOg  Tn  16:49, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The flag is redundant with the seal. And frankly, the seal doesn't look good at that small a resolution--which is exactly what people were trying to explain to you months ago. I would ditch the images entirely. → ROUX   ₪  16:51, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Seal is in the current one, which I will leave it for this one, but I will take out the flag per previous request!<font color="#0000FF">BLuE<font color="#FF0000">DOg  Tn  16:57, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I have taken this discussion to talk to get consensus on this navbox. Thanks!<sub style="color:#0000FF;">BLuE <sup style="color:#FF0000;">DOg  Tn  17:33, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Truce
Hello, again. I just wantd to let you know that I am tired of arguing with everyone. I have one quick question. I was wondering how to add references to other articles, because I have some current information that could be useful to one article. So, truce?-- Nemesis of  Reason  14:22, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Adoption
hey, ROUX, yeah, I know I have been a jerk for the past few days, but I was wondering if you could adopt me because I really could use a LOT of information regarding Wikipedia and creating an article. So, if you could, please consider it and let me know A.S.A.P!! Thank You and again I am sorry-- Nemesis of  Reason  16:04, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
