UK Constituencies
Why did you revert my edits. Putting the North/South as a suffix as opposed to a prefix makes it easier to locate constituencies. You may not have noticed that the majority of the constituencies have the North/South at the end, I was just tidying it up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rob.derosa (talk • contribs)
 * Because that is not how you do moves. Ryūlóng 05:16, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay I will request a move for the page, I was unaware about that cut/paste rule. That doesnt explain why you reverted the table. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rob.derosa (talk • contribs)
 * To fix the redirects that you put in place. And sign your messages with four tildes. Ryūlóng 05:19, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, I will rename the constituencies in the table to eg Devon North, but keep the link to North Devon. Then request a move by an admin. OkayRob.derosa 05:21, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Better. Ryūlóng 05:21, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion
I noticed that you tagged the page Image:STW-Trucker.jpg for speedy deletion with the reason "Orphaned". However, "Orphaned" is not currently one of our criteria for speedy deletion, so I have removed the speedy deletion tag. You can use WP:IFD if you still want the page to be deleted. Thanks!

Re: Habbo Raids
I can understand the verifiability problem; that's why I linked to a video of an incident in progress (which verifies that raids happen and that they're from 4chan) as well as a screenshot that also proves they happen. My understanding is that the 4chan Habbo raids are similar in notability as the various GNAA attacks. Even more so than GNAA, in fact, because the Habbo raids involved the mass mobilization of a large body of people. Would forum posts from Habbo itself about the raids provide verifiability (especially as mods posted on the raids' impact on the servers)? My interest here is documenting what appears to be a surprisingly structured and coordinated attack from a group of people who pride themselves on being random. It also provides evidence that /b/ might be more than just an image board, which is interesting from a social science post of view. Also, the raids did impact the online experience of many people. What do you think? (And feel free to reply here or on my talk page.) Xuanwu 03:47, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The problem does not exist in the verifiability problem, perse, but more of the fact that such raids don't really need to be mentioned in a serious encyclopedia that Wikipedia is striving to be. There have been long discussions about whether or not to include them in Talk:4chan and Talk:Habbo Hotel and both discussions have unequivocally stated that such information is not for Wikipedia, despite the wishes of /b/tards everywhere.

 * May I ask what makes habbo hotel and anime/manga so much more worth writing about that a actress/model? Just wonder. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VelvetGeisha (talk • contribs)

Rabbit starvation
Hi, Ryulong. It looks like you replaced the original disputed text in the Rabbit starvation article, that had been removed by the author. I'm not sure what the usual procedure is with pages that need a rewrite, but shouldn't the author's removal of copyrighted material stand? Regards, --Pappa 10:34, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Stephencolbert
Heh, I suspected that might happen. What we need is some way to wave a wand over an article once in a while to signify that otherwise suspicious edits previously have been 'blessed'. :D Regards, C HAIRBOY  (☎) 21:22, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I've asked for the user talk to be sprotected. We'll see how that works out. Ryūlóng 21:24, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * My personal thoughts on this are that it should be fine to leave it as is for a few days, it's not hard for us to revert. Since the user is blocked, if we sprotect it then the actual SC (if it was him) would be unable to post. - C HAIRBOY  (☎) 21:44, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, after a few days, he would be able to reply. Ryūlóng 21:44, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

What??
Hey, that user page you deleted was mine... I removed the speedy deletion because I thought the comment was funny, it was from a friend... why did you say I was vandalizing my own user page? 68.59.61.237 17:58, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It was not funny. Death threats never are. Ryūlóng 17:58, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia has rules against death threats, and attacks of any kind. Regardless of who left it, it is still a problem. That and IP users can't have user pages. Ryūlóng 18:02, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Really? I'm sorry, I didn't know that. Why is that, do you know?  68.59.61.237 18:04, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

 * THanks, but I meant, why can't IPs have userspaces? Hope I'm not bugging you, 68.59.61.237 18:20, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It's just a general rule. I'm not sure where it is, but it has been enforced. Only in rare instances do IP users have user pages. Ryūlóng 18:21, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

You reverted my edits to the Ignatieff page without actually looking at them. If you did, you'd see I was simply removing PURE DUPLICATION. With your reversion, the same block of text now appears twice. 72.139.185.19 18:05, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Edits to "Meera Jasmine"
Dear Ryulong,

I did an rvv for "Meera Jasmine" because I felt a previous version was more well-written and some of the info in the newer version was incorrect (for example, Meera Jasmine was not born in Mangalore). I assure you that this was not vandalism. I appreciate your attempts to weed out vandalism, but there's no way this was vandalism. So pls let me rvv in peace.

Regards, Zojoji 18:54, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Then merely change the information, do not blank everything to fix it. Ryūlóng 18:55, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello, I left you a comment at Talk:Radio Habana Cuba--Jersey Devil 22:29, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

RfA
Suggestion, minimize your involvement in your RfA. Let other people revert vandalism, and let it work itself out. Some editors react poorly to admin candidates who are too involved in the process. - C HAIRBOY (☎) 23:51, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I apologize, it's just that I'm getting these pings in the Vandalism channel. Ryūlóng 23:52, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Reverts, talk pages, and diatribes
Reverts are rude, use them sparingly. If you have a comment to make, do so on the talk page. Calling someones edit a diatribe is an epithet and violates WP:CIVIL. Welcome to Wikipedia. -Ste|vertigo 00:10, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I apologize. The edit seemed longwinded, and I am sorry if I offended you. I was just alerted to it through some bots. Ryūlóng 00:11, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Stop vandalizing.
Have you read this gem in the help section? I quote:

reverting such removals or redirects is not proper and may result in a block for edit warring.

Blanking a page is, contrary to whatever you believe, NOT against the rules. Especially if it's harrassment, such as what you're doing at the moment. I feel that you're acting due to a certain someone pushing you to, and I feel that this warning will be enough and I don't have to place a vandalism warning here. However, consider this your final non-"real" warning. I've repeatedly asked you to stop, please be civil and stop vandalizing my user page. MonsterOfTheLake 02:51, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I am sorry, but talk pages should not be blanked. If anything, they should be archived. Ryūlóng 02:52, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * That's your opinion. Check up the definition of the word. I have given you fair warning. Until I break the rules, you are free to (and quite encouraged!) to stay free of my user pages, just like you are able to delete this section if you wish to. Good? Great! MonsterOfTheLake 02:55, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Except I will not delete this section. It will go into my archives, and I will not discourage people from posting on it. Ryūlóng 02:57, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It's completely legal to shave my head, except I will not shave my head. Yet it's also completely legal to eat lasagna, and I WILL eat lasagna. Works out to the same end. I hope we're on the same wavelength here, because following rules is awesome. Hooray for proper discussion. Now, feel free to stay away from me (and my pages)! MonsterOfTheLake 03:03, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Fine. Ryūlóng 03:03, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

MOTL page blanking
MOTL blanked his talk page (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:MonsterOfTheLake&action=history ) and added a "warning" - he's under the mistaken impression that user pages = user talk pages. WhisperToMe 04:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Them userpage vamandals
Given the number of times I've run into you, in the midst of CVU business, your talk page is probably like mine, in terms of its two most popular topics: (a) "Screw you for reverting my edits!" and (b) "Thanks for reverting those edits!" With that in mind, a belated thanks for your rvv at my userpage. :) Luna Santin 08:10, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Put a question on your RFA
Hello Ryulong : - ) I put a question on your RFA. FloNight   talk  15:53, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

a problem
I do have a problem. Some maniac has nominated you for ADMIN. That's nuts. nobody is being harrassed. Why does the truth hurt you so bad? your bullying aint working out for you on this one huh? awww.

You tried to say that ALL AMERICANS HAVE INCEST on the Jeremy Clarkson page and went to great lengths to make it stay that way... I HAD YOU REVERSED... you're burned. You were wrong. Now it has the correct quote AND the source. I was suspended for my troubles. You tried VERY hard to prevent this. It's all there in the history. You are a weasel. I'm sorry that they picked on you in school, but picking on me is gonna make your life much worse.

When I tried to start a discussion about it, you repeatedly deleted my TOPIC. you even had your little friends wrongfully block me.

So.... FUCK YOU and Eat shit.

I WILL make sure that your NOMINATION page reflects the truth.

Fuck you very much.

You bullied the wrong person.

YourCousin--86.29.121.113 20:13, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

F.O.

YourCousin--86.29.121.113 20:16, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It was not saying that all Americans have incest. He was citing a stereotype that Americans in rural areas have incest. And you cannot edit my RFA nomination page any more, and if you continue to harass me because I had done the right thing (by reverting your blanking and constant tirades that slandered me) then the Wikimedia Foundation will contact your ISP and have you pulled from their services. It has been done in the past, and it may be done in your case. Ryūlóng 20:17, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

I watched the clip that ChicosBailBonds cited as to have the comment about "when you buy an American car..." and the quote was not in the video clip. I have removed that quote, per your constant wishes and (constant) attacks on my status as a good editor. However, the "Whatever they do..." from the Ford F150 clip will remain, as that is explicity stated in the clip. I hope that now that I have discovered the truth about this whole nonsense (for now), that you can stop slandering me. Ryūlóng 21:47, 4 August 2006 (UTC) dont get all buddy with me...

I removed the quote from the Dodge Charger segment, because the video that it was cited to does not mention the quote in it. However, there is a separate and (slightly) different quote mentioned in the Ford F150 segment, where Clarkson does make a statement about rural Americans and incest.

Thanks for uploading Image:Synapse-CoH.png. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags.

City of heroes/villans stuff
Hi, I see you reverted me and reinstated the "free use" template on those images. So I took a look at the City of villans/heroes fansite kits just in case, and as I suspected the material is not relased for free use. Along with the images the zip files contain license file that clearly states that you are only allowed to use it on "your fansite" (wich I don't think Wikipedia qualifies as) anything beyond that:

"NCsoft and its licensors own all of the right, title and interest in and to the Game. Your right to reference the Game is limited to the license grant above, and you may not otherwise copy, display, perform, publish, or use any of the Game elements. You may not modify, reverse engineer, disassemble, create derivative works from, license, transfer, distribute, or sell any materials from the Game, or use the Game to further any commercial or unlawful purpose. Without limiting the foregoing, you may not use your references to the Game to sell advertising, to promote another product or business, or on any site that operates or promotes a server emulator. You may not make materials from the Game available by download from your City of Villains Fan Site (without prior written permission of NCsoft)."

So basicaly you are only allowed to use it for a very spesific kind of website (basicaly promoting theyr product), and it's restricted to non-commercial, non-derivative use only. Hardly a free license now is it? Low res versions of the character images will probably qualify as fair use under character-artwork, but the CopyrightedFreeUse tag is clearly inapropriate as it essentualy claims there are no restrictions at all on what you can do with those images. --Sherool (talk) 22:48, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I suspected it would be as such. I will tag them with character-artwork (unless you have already done as such) and I will revert my edits to userbox templates that I have used derivatives of the images in. Ryūlóng 22:50, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Clarkson quote: I have the episode
Yes, I have the episode on my computer and am viewing it as I type this. Here is the line, starting roughly 19min 30sec into the episode:

(camera goes from C&W bar back into studio, shot of Hammond, Clarkson and the Charger R/T) CLARKSON: It's not the line dancing that's the problem, and nor is it the fact that if you buy an American car you're gonna have to commit acts of love with your cousin. (some laughter) HAMMOND: So what's the problem? CLARKSON: Charger--wrong Dodge. You need a Challenger... (goes on to talk about chase scenes)

If you torrent the episode yourself from finalgear.com, watch it and see for yourself. Thanks for taking time out to clear this up. --ChicosBailBonds 01:55, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, I cannot torrent (it will be largely useless to me when I am at school because of the blocks my University's network places on certain ports, particularly those related to illegal downloads). Perhaps you can take the entire segment about the Charger and upload it to youtube/another easily viewable video website, the incest joke included, that way it can be cited correctly. Ryūlóng 00:46, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to use both names, I guess, since I know I'm not going to be finding any Danish marriage licenses from the late 1800's, heheh. Cheers! --Chuchunezumi 00:58, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Removed Tommy Pictures
I was wondering why those pictures you removed on the Tommy Oliver page were unnecessary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Unclerico89 (talk • contribs)

Thanks for removing the vandalism to my talk page, that user who went to everyone's page with a "whassup" or "you rock" flabbergasted me, it was nice that he was giving compliments but it seemed like vandalism/spam at the same time; very weird.

Etobicoke School of the Arts reversion
I'd recommend against your reversion of that edit, because I don't think it was vandalism; I think it was removing vandalism. You're not Canadian, so you might not know that the entry in question, saying that a former teacher at the school was hard at work on 'The King of Kensington - The Next Generation' is extremely dubious. First, 'TKoK' is about 30 years old, its principal actor, Al Waxman, is dead, and the CBC almost never does sequels. Also, I googled the name of the supposed author and the supposed TV show, and got nothing. I think you should investigate it further before committing to a reversion. IMO this might be a sneaky, sneaky vandal (there's been a lot in the news about the supposed untrustworthiness of WP), seeing if they can trip up admins by catching them restoring vandalism.--Anchoress 09:01, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I apologize. I was going through the edits of someone who had done a hell of a lot of other vandalism that I reverted. I will revert the edit if it is necessary. Ryūlóng 09:03, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Cool. Yeah all the other edits were clearly vandalism. Personally I think the etobicoke entry is either vandalism or original research. First, the entry was from an IP with like four edits. Second, there has been quite a bit of vandalism of the article. Third, I googled the whole title of the supposed new project and got only one hit, a blog entry from last year. Fourth, I googled the name of the teacher before it was changed, and didn't find anything about TKoK. Fifth, the original entry said the math teacher was working on a script for the new show, so I think it's at least possible that a) the teacher really is working on it (as their own project) and mentioned it to someone who added it, or b) it's just vandalism. Either way it's not verifiable, not on the net at least, so you were right to kill it.Anchoress 09:15, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you


Hi there!
Hi there! We don't really know each other, but I've seen you around quite a bit on recent changes and in the #vandalism-en-wp IRC channel and from what I can tell, you do good work. I hope you don't become discouraged by the results of your RfA and continue to produce at the level we've all grown accustomed to. I also hope you'll consider another go at RfA in the future, as I believe that both you and Wikipedia would benefit from enabling you to fight vandalism more effectively. I noticed that you go to the U, so hopefully you won't be too engrossed by the upcoming football season to edit! Also, if you're ever looking for a break from vandal fighting and are indeed a football fan, I'd love to collaborate with you on fleshing out some of the 'Cane alumni football stubs in the upcoming months. Cheers!  hoopydink Conas tá tú? 00:43, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Heh...I doubt that I'll go to any of the games this year, either, unless my new roommate and suitemates decide to drag me out to one. I'll definitely try to go through the RfA process, again. It's pointed out my WP:AGF and WP:BITE faults. Ryūlóng 02:42, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

User:Reporter3623
Hi Ryulong

You appear to have left an unsigned bv warning on a new user's talk page. I can see no vandalism in this user's edits. I can also see no welcome message to them. All I can see is a frustrated new user experiencing some vandalism for the first time, and you threatening to have them blocked. Under WP:BITE, please consider removing the warning (perhaps replacing it with one of the welcome templates) and having a little more WP:AGF? Not a requirement, just a suggestion. ➨  ЯEDVERS  22:36, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * This user's sole edits are to WP:AIV (as well as only a few edits to AOL IP talk pages) where he is filing false reports on AOL users who have not been given warnings in several days. This user registered today and only has edits there, not to vandalism reversions. Ryūlóng 22:37, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Then tell him that. You appear to be abusing bv. Please stop. Try a little WP:AGF and help a new user rather than just stamping on them. ➨  ЯEDVERS  22:40, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I did, and his actions have proven that he is solely registered for disruption of AIV. Ryūlóng 22:47, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I feel it necessary to point out that the user had something like three edits when he was reported, all of which were good-natured (albeit misguided) attempts to help out. Thus, I don't feel he deserves punishment, and I'd like to help avoid another AIV "edit war" if possible. Sorry to butt in, but I figured I might as well do it here since I already did it here as well. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 22:48, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * While the user only had three edits, they were only to WP:AIV and to give false warnings on a user talk page. If anything, it appears he was that IP editting the hidden message on AIV and then registered to make a point. Ryūlóng 22:53, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Please present your evidence for this astonishing lack of faith in a new editor. His actions amount to four edits, none of which appear to be in bad faith. Your actions, Ryulong, appear to be entirely bad faith: you didn't once consider WP:AGF, nor WP:BITE. You quite possibly put off an (over)enthusiastic new editor for life. So please be warned: do not abuse bv and do not bite newcomers in future. Repeatedly doing so after being warned may lead to you being blocked from editing. Thanks. ➨  ЯEDVERS  22:56, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I realize that it is an extreme bad faith accusation, but this user was reporting IPs who had not been warned in several days (until he did so himself and even used a page that the IP had not editted as evidence). He then reported me (copying and pasting my signature) because I reverted his false warnings. He may have been misguided, but he had no other edits, registered within the hour, and was more than likely just trying to get an AOL IP blocked (one in a similar range had been reverted many times for inserting a message in the instructions on AIV to try and say something about AOL IPs). Ryūlóng 23:09, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Whatever your suspicions of his motives, you use of bv was clearly against WP:BITE and WP:AGF. Further more, suspicions of motive do not indicate the actual motive of a user unless you have proof. You must start assuming good faith of your fellow editors. ➨  ЯEDVERS  23:19, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Perhaps you should stop editing for the night, put your feet up and have a nice cup of tea? ➨  ЯEDVERS  23:19, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

University of MInnesota Duluth
Why did you delete a large contribution to the University of Minnesota Duluth article by 209.240.246.18? It needs a little help but how on earth is it vandalism? Rlitwin 02:18, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The user had blanked a large portion of the page, and my rollback undid all of his edits. Ryūlóng 02:27, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

You claimed that 209.240.246.18 blanked a portion of the University of Minnesota Duluth page and you rolled back his edits. That is simply not true. If you are using some assisting software, maybe it's not working right. If you check the history of that page, you will see that that user did not do any blanking. Your explanation (archived under the same heading in your talk archive yesterday) is not correct. Rlitwin 12:38, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * That is what the edits appeared to be through bots at the vandalism IRC channel. A large blanking or removal; and in the process of my rolling back that information, the user's other edits were undone. Either that, or it was a large addition to the article, and I deemed it to be slightly questionable. Ryūlóng 14:33, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * There was a large addition to the article. It was poorly written.  I reworked it and incorporated it into the article.  It needed help, but wasn't vandalism.  I think you were overzealous there in enjoining the editor to "please not compromise the integrity of pages."  He or she is a new wikipedian and probably found that very discouraging. Just thought I'd mention that. Rlitwin 14:36, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * That "please do not compromise" thing is merely something built into the script for reverting vandals. And I seriously doubt that IP editors know how to check page histories to see such information directed at them. You had reverted my reversion, and have now reworked that section into the article. Is there any other problem? Ryūlóng 14:44, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * No, no problem, I just felt I should let you know. Rlitwin 15:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, then. Ryūlóng 15:02, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Ryulong, I see you've tagged Megan Hilty for speedy deletion. I'd urge you to remove the tag - Hilty starred on Broadway as Glinda in Wicked the Musical from May 2005 to May 2006, which meets the name recognition/fan base requirements under WP:BIO, at least among followers of Broadway. I saw her myself when she performed the part alongside Idina Menzel, a Tony award winner, back in December of 2004. Fabricationary 00:58, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

I've been finding lately that it's usually a lot quicker to userfy articles like this and leave them a note that it's been done, rather than spending 20 minutes going through the db/hangon/discussion route, and eventually getting them to use the user page. Nine times out of ten they don't try to recreate it in article space. Fan-1967 02:56, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

4chan Page Reversion
From UserTalk:DirGenZhugeLiang Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours.

 * Additionally, the information is questionable, and even if it is written in an encyclopedic tone, it still does not have any place in the article, just because /b/tards are getting affected by rules that are no longer weakly enforced. Ryūlóng 03:16, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, what I was doing was not vandalism. /b/ is 4chan's main draw, comprising more posts daily than many of the other boards have ever had. So if it has to do with /b/, it has to do with 4chan, simple as that. Dirgenzhugeliang 03:39, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Gibberish usernames
Hi, Ryulong. While I can see the problems inherent in gibberish usernames like, I can't find anything in Username that forbids them, so I'm reluctant to block a user just because his name is random characters. left Mnbvczxvlkjhgfdas a polite note on his talk page, which I think should suffice. The two edits from the account don't appear to be vandalism, and I'd wager that the individual won't even remember the username he chose next time he edits. If he comes back, he can change to a better username, but I don't think he needs to be blocked right now. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:29, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:Crest design.jpg
I saw that you tagged Image:Crest design.jpg for speedy deletion. Unfortunately, "bad image" is not a valid criterion for speedy deletion. I have this image on my watchlist, and plan to IfD it in a couple of days if it's not used in an article, but if you want to IfD it before then feel free to. Your speedy delete nomination made me smile, though, as I often wish there was a WP:PROD for images, or much looser speedy deletion criteria for orphaned images! --Icarus (Hi!) 07:32, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It's not that the image is orphaned, but it is corrupted. That is why it should be deleted. Ryūlóng 07:33, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah, yes, I see what you were going for now. It seems our browsers work differently, because I can see the image just fine with Safari. I was somewhat puzzled by why such an experience wikipedian as yourself would make such an odd speedy deletion request, but this makes much more sense! Thanks for giving me yet another laugh, even if the first one was unintentional ;-) --Icarus (Hi!) 07:43, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm...Well, it was still uploaded by a user who is now blocked. Ryūlóng 07:46, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm leaving your speedy tag there anyway. If an admin doesn't buy your reason, there's always ifd. It'll get deleted one way or another. And, totally off-topic, it's nice to know I'm not the only Power Rangers-loving biology major out there, lol. --Icarus (Hi!) 07:52, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Doesn't look like a db-bio to me. She's a producer and director of some notable stuff (which have articles in Wikipedia themselves). Can you tell me the reason you tagged it? I will remove it for now. - Mgm|(talk) 08:32, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

VIP page
Hi, I notice your putting a lot of IP's on the vandalism in progress page, some of them have one warning, or no warnings at all. Take a look at the top of that page, editors need warnings, including a final warning before being listed. I generally just remove IPs that haven't been warned at least twice....anyway, thanks for all the vandalism patrol! Rx StrangeLove 04:07, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, several IPs I list have done extremely egregious vandalism. I usually do not list them immeadiately unless I feel that their vandalism is harmful and needs fast attention. Ryūlóng 04:08, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:In Memoriam
Hello Ryulong.

In Memoriam is now a disambiguation page, so I was trying to blank the page Talk:In Memoriam (without edit summary though, my mistake!) Should we still keep the redirect to Talk:In Memoriam A.H.H.? Thanks for your attention. Korg (talk) 05:49, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I apologize. If it is now a disambig, then it can be blanked, just put something in its place like talkheader. Ryūlóng 05:49, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Have you figured out who is or why they vandalised pages?

 * 1) I find it odd they have not logged in.
 * 2) They are not really attemptting to hide like a spammer would. It would be really stupid to keep using the same IP.
 * 3) It is almost like they do not understand what vandalism consists of. The revert I saw for the Bill O'Reilly page suggested that 68.75.92.211 simply did not understand that the change would not help.  I think he or she really thinks they are being helpful.

What do you think? Will 06:14, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Er... I have no idea what you are talking about. All I know is that they blanked a user page, which is vandalism in itself. Ryūlóng 06:16, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Decentralized Model
Hi -- the user who removed the prod from that page gave what looked like a pretty legitimate reason for it. Would you agree that perhaps this is a matter that should be discussed on the article talk? You're also free to AFD it if you want. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 06:36, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, the article was created tonight by a single user, and the IP who removed the speedy tag also did so on the other article that I had tagged for the same reason. Ryūlóng 06:38, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Revert-warring in Pluto
Hi! Please stop revert-warring, otherwise you may get blocked for the violation of the 3RR rule.--Nixer 08:13, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I may get blocked? More like one of the two of us, if not both. Ryūlóng 08:22, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, you are both at the limit of 3RR. Revert warring is disruptive. Please take your disagreement to the talk page and agree how to proceed. The next revert from either of you will result in a block unfortunately. Thanks. -- Cactus.man  &#9997;  08:27, 26 August 2006 (UTC)]'
 * You already violated the 3RR limit dispite the warning. According the rules, you should be blocked and your edit reverted by an administrator.--Nixer 08:39, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * This is a content dispute that I did not repeat my edits again at, I had in fact only changed a few words around the first time, then realized that the sentence structure was funky, that you continued to revert back to. You are the one that has been blocked for these things in the past, more than once. I even explained myself in my last edit summary, and the contents of which are entirely different. Ryūlóng 08:41, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You can edit the article, not neccessary revert, for examle, you can delete the diouble wording if exist. You did not explain why you do not agree with the edits on the talk page, only stupidly reverted.--Nixer 08:47, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I explained myself, though, and even the diffs that are shown aren't even the same. You, of all people, should know how 3RR works. Ryūlóng 08:49, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, I know. You reverted the article four times. The 3RR works even if there are some small differences between the edits. My edit also were not exact the same.--Nixer 09:07, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

What is JS?
I keep seeing JS in your edit summaries, just wondering what it is. Thanks.-- Andeh 10:03, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Javascript. Check User:Voice of All's pages. Ryūlóng 10:04, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks.-- Andeh 10:06, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Pluto
Thanks for the heads up on User:Nixer's WP:AN3 edit, although I'd already reverted it and left a further note / warning. Do you have any past history with this user? He is teetering towards a block of his own sadly. Regards. -- Cactus.man  &#9997;  10:54, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I haven't even heard of this guy until I did the editting at Pluto. Ryūlóng 10:56, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * He changed it from "Not blocked" to "No consensus" now... Even though it got me into this trouble, I've reverted him. I don't understand what I did to this guy. Ryūlóng 10:58, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

3rr board
I've reverted your most recent edit to the 3rrv board. If the report should be removed it should be removed by someone other than you. JoshuaZ 19:19, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I am sorry. It's just that this guy is bent on getting me blocked. Ryūlóng 19:21, 26 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, frustration is understandable in such circumstances. I would also make one other request: please don't mark reversions as minor. Almost by defintion if one is in conflict with another editor it is not minor. JoshuaZ 19:25, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think I marked it as minor...it must have been the Javascript. Ryūlóng 19:26, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, just be careful of that in the future. As for Nixer's continued behavior, your best bet is probably ignoring him. Since it isn't going to lead anywhere I wouldn't be too concerned. JoshuaZ 20:21, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, it appears he has been blocked for 24 hours for both 3RR and continued disruption of both 3RR cases that he filed against me. I don't know why he calls my edits reverts. Ryūlóng 20:22, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Ryulong, yes I blocked Nixer for disruption and 3RR violation. I would suggest that you perhaps consider some commentary on the talk page regarding your "consolidated paragraph" and grammar improvements, to seek consensus - always difficult to achieve - but it would help stabilise the article somewhat. -- Cactus.man  &#9997;  20:42, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay then. Ryūlóng 20:43, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism?
Was this edit done with much thought, or did you just go "anon removing material must be vandal"? I think the material removed was, not to put too fine a point on it, worse than useless. This had been discussed on the talk page; I had suggested the removal, but said I didn't want to act singlehandedly. On the other hand, if you really think this amounts to vandalism, I'll let your version stand.

A reply on my user talk page would be appreciated. - Jmabel | Talk 21:50, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

69.165.176.101
Ryulong, why do you consider his edits to Juliusz Nowina-Sokolnicki to be vandalism? They are POV and possibly copyvio, but I am not sure they are vandalism? Are we biting a newbie? abakharev 01:50, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, there was just a hell of a lot going over there, that required something to be done, I didn't know which one was right, so I had reverted to whichever one wasn't huge and removed a spam link. Ryūlóng 01:51, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It was just hard to see whose edits are worse in this situation. Ryūlóng 01:55, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Eric Gaffney
Hello. I had shortened that page a few days ago, and was going to reshorten it (after User:Ericgaffney repopulated it with the contents of his MySpace page) + adding a reasonable discography. I don't know him or his music, but from some research I did he seemed notable enough in indie rock that an article (not his MySpace content) would not be out of place. I was in the process of editing the article and placing an explanatory note on his talk page when you moved it to his user page and speedy-deleted the article. I think that action, while technically justified, might have been a bit premature. Would I be stepping on toes if I recreated the article in a shorter and more encyclopedic way? -- ArglebargleIV 03:41, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You can move the article back to where it was and leave his user talk intact, I did not realize that the article was about someone who is notable, merely that it was a massive amount of text added, and the user's name is the same as that of the article. Ryūlóng 03:44, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks -- and thanks for moving the article back. I'll try to deal with him and explain to him what he did wrong. (and yeah, the text dump was suspicious.) Thanks again. -- ArglebargleIV 03:51, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. Just make sure that this guy gets that he can't write about himself on Wikipedia. I've been involved with such disputes in the past. Ryūlóng 04:09, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Why the revert?
The edit was related to this user acxting without consensus and merging articles. You could have asked before rolling back. ≈ jossi ≈ t &bull; @ 05:06, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Because the talk page was redirecting to an article; that's why I reverted. I've reverted his edits to the main article so that it is a redirect, but the talk page should not be a redirect in this case. Ryūlóng 05:07, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * OK I will fix it. Thanks. ≈ jossi ≈ t &bull; @ 05:07, 27 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I suppose I too should ask why. Why do you take Jossi's side in this argument? Have I done anything other than try to improve the article, with nothing but resistance from him who thinks he owns it? Dicklyon 05:10, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I did not take either of your sides. I just saw a large addition/removal and I reverted it. Ryūlóng 05:13, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * But after that you reverted my restoration of his removal, this diff: Dicklyon 05:23, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I do not know who is right or who is wrong in this situation. As such, I am going to recuse myself from it from now on. I will archive this discussion, but any other discussion about my accidental involvement in the revert war between the two of you I will delete. Ryūlóng 05:24, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Reporting at AIV
Please don't use "Idiot" as a reason for a block, when posting at AIV. It can be seen as a personal attack (see WP:NPA) and isn't very helpful for us admins when it comes to blocking someone (as "idiot" isn't a good description of what someone did to deserve a block). Thank you. -→ Buchanan-Hermit ™ /<font color="red" size="1">?!  06:08, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I realize that, but sometimes idiocy is the only way to describe the actions taken. Ryūlóng 06:10, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I see that too, but it's not very helpful to us admins, especially when someone's actions may not necessarily be seen as vandalism. And calling someone an idiot doesn't help matters should the person decide to respond to that; it may escalate things. -→ Buchanan-Hermit ™ /<font color="red" size="1">?!  06:11, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, it's not like some of these editors really do see the AIV listings on them, but I understand your concerns. In the future, I will be clearer to the idiocy involved. Ryūlóng 06:13, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Bot screw up
Not sure what the hell happened there - did you post just before me? It seemed to merge into my post. --Charlesknight 19:21, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Probably. I'm finding idiots faster than the null edit page vandal. Ryūlóng 19:23, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

AIV caution
Please don't report anon IPs at AIV unless they've recently been given a test3, test4, or testblatant warning and have vandalised after that. For example, User:70.191.165.213 only vandalised once, was given a warning, and had nothing after that. Even though it was Colbert vandalism (which I hate, too), we shouldn't block anon IPs without giving them a chance to behave in accordance with the warnings. Thanks, NawlinWiki 04:40, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, when an anon's first edit is vandalism, something should probably be done about that. Slightly tangential, I find it odd that some IPs that have been blocked repeatedly, and that further (permanent) precautions are not taken against them (save for the proxies). Ryūlóng 04:58, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Controversy over racial characteristics of Ancient Egyptians
I have protected this page because there seems to be edit warring taking place. The revert rule exists to stop edit warring and at this point you (and others) have gone past 3 reverts and so could be blocked. I have protected the page instead.

Just so you are aware, the copyright violation notice is not the one to use when the source is Wikipedia itself. Probably best to just leave a notice on the talk page.

Do you think that User pages should be editable by that user and admins only?
After seeing the changes that Olive Garden Guild made to your user page, I find myself thinking that user pages should be protected so only you and admins can edit that page.

Also, I am a Methodist and disagree with the contents of that post. Olive Garden Guild was extremely irresponsable and not acting in a Christian manner. Will 05:09, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Suggestion
As you are a serial vandal fighter and contact anons/new users a lot, may I suggest you create an additional sub-page in your user space for anons/new users to leave messages? Assuming your normal talk still needs protection of course. What do you think?-- Andeh 18:45, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I have tried to attempt that, but where I want to put it is a little difficult. I want it to be at the bottom of my page, or if I cannot do that, I want to try and force level 3 headings. Ryūlóng 18:47, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I think it's best not to have a tranclusion of it here as vandals that make a real mess of it will affect your protected user talk. Some users just have a bright link at the top to the additional page.- Andeh 18:50, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
 * All right then. Ryūlóng 18:51, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I do not know that much about the situation, however I will look into it when the process has gone on a little longer. Ryūlóng 19:54, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Here ya go matey ;)

 * PS: Should your talk page be protected???
 * I prefer it would stay that way. I make a few enemies vandal fighting. Now they have a place to all hate me at. Ryūlóng 20:47, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I got a question?
I'm somewhat new to wikipedia and I saw those userboxes on your user page, and I was just wondering how do you get them?--Manfro 91 23:21, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
 * They are userboxes and can be found at Wikipedia:Userboxes. Ryūlóng 23:24, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

ok, thanks. --Manfro 91 23:26, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Clear
Well, that does make sense, though I don't know why you'd use such a large setting. Indicate such things with an edit summary next time. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 02:30, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Will do so. And I use a large setting because I have a 17" wide screen. Ryūlóng 02:33, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * That would be a good reason then. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 03:09, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Facebook and refs
References are bugged currently. Please don't blank the article to try and fix that, though? Ryūlóng 05:25, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. I tried tweaking references but the [a] [b] superscript kept showing up. I tried copying the entire article to my sandbox and the references worked there so I thought maybe quickly blanking it was the only way to fix it (and by the time I tried to replace it, had your edit conflict). Kuru has since pointed out Purge which I'll use in the future. Again, sorry for the trouble! &mdash;L 1AM (talk) 05:37, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * That's all right. At least it's fixed now. Ryūlóng 05:38, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Images used with permission.
Hello, I noticed that you edited the tag for the image Bill_Davis, and I was wondering if you have any idea why Wikipedia does not allow images used with permission of the copyright holder. It seems to be a universal rule here, but I can't figure out why. Thanks, --Arctic Gnome 23:20, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, it's just a default thing that they need proof or a better tag for; not really sure as I've used that reasoning and seen the same results. Ryūlóng 23:34, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Sorry, I was unaware in regards to the help button there. How would I go forward with what you were talking about? Thanks for your assistance.Vice President In Charge Of Office Supplies 23:20, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

About Db-notenglish tags
Before adding a tag to an article, please check to see if the article is in the proper Wikipedia. Otherwise, either use the tag and list it at WP:PNT, or find another reason for speedy deletion and tag it with that. Thanks. Jesse Viviano 05:45, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, there's no db-notenglishnn. Ryūlóng 05:47, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I will create it, but using the title Template:Db-bio-notenglish. CSD A7 requires that no assertion of notability whatsoever is present. If the article states a ridiculous claim of notability, then CSD A7 does not apply, but then CSD G3 will probably apply. Jesse Viviano 06:00, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Which is G3 (the shorthand word)? Ryūlóng 06:01, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * G3 is vandalism. Use for that. Jesse Viviano 06:14, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh... Thank you. Ryūlóng 06:15, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the revert
Thanks for the revert on my userpage. Big-time vandal right there. I had to revert him again when I got back home; I wonder what I did to tick him off... -→ Buchanan-Hermit ™ /<font color="red" size="1">?!  01:21, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice
I'll direct my question to the Village pump (technical). Thanks again. -postglock 07:37, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

User:Kmaguir1 still
The latest thing is after the failure of his malicious AfD's, he's taken to repeatedly deleting the portrait image from Danny Yee... showing an ongoing hostility to the bio because I wrote it. Any thoughts? LotLE × talk 18:00, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Please
Are you an administrater? I am again requesting that the voting stop on my Richard Family page and that it be deleted immediatly. I no longer want to contribute and I want my work to be removed. Since I wrote it and I want to remove it I see no further need for voting. Thank you. Vaio12 03:43, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * No, I am not. All you have to do is put " " at the top of Richard Family and it will be dealt with. Other than that, the AFD process will continue until an administrator deletes it. Ryūlóng 03:48, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Brad Armstrong
Hi, I'm not sure how this works, but I saw that you edited the Brad Armstrong page a while back to revert vandalism. It looks like it needs some correction again. Thanks, Stephen

Protecting Contributions
Thank you for you assistance on the Morehouse College Mock Trial page. Is there a way that the portion dealing with Mock Trial can be prevented from being edited or deleted from non-registered users. The IP address that continues to edit the page shows that it is coming from the school's computer lab, which means that it could be ANYBODY in that computer lab editing the material. Any help or suggestions that you can give will be appreciated. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TruOne (talk • contribs)
