football
Hi, I just got your message. I notice Australian articles calling soccer football. How do I go about changing this? Rugby 666

Hell0, I thank you for the messages and the spirit in which they were sent. The policies overview was particuarly helpful. WTF(meant very civilly) are you talking about Aussie Rules as why soccer is not called football? rugby league football is what we call football and have called football for 5 generations in Australia, before that it was rugby union. Personally I enjoy all sports. However NOBODY, except for perhaps a hundred thousand idiots, calls soccer football in Australia and I think that needs to be changed on wikipedia. On English pages they call soccer football and therefore on Australian pages we should call football football as is our language. If you are from Victoria or south Australia or Western Australia than you would call rules football, BUT NOBODY CALLS SOCCER FOOTBALL. If wikipedia is meant to reflect commen terminology than the term soccer should be used on Australian pages because I was annoyed when I typed the word football and Australia and only things to do with ruls and soccer came up. Just my opinion. I understand that it is very difficult to change this, but I hope it is changed.(oh by the way, New Zealand, Pacific Islanders, Ireland, India and China use the term soccer, so I think that they are in a minority in the English speaking world even but I am only concerned about Australian pages. Cheers Rugby 666

Thanks for your warm message.

Blocked

You have been blocked from editing for 1 week for making legal threats on User talk:Jimbo Wales. Cheers! --May the Force be with you! Shreshth91 15:52, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very kind and polite from you. But you do not solve problems in any ways if you block a person. This complete think goes over 1 year. I never wanted to inform Mr. Jimbo Wales about that because I could not see a necessity to do so. After this long time and very good try from German Admin Markus Schweiß who failed I could not see any other alternative.

Kind regards

New Pages
Hello. I am a new user, and am in the process of creating and editing a page which I feel deserves inclusion in Wikipedia. Can you give me any tips? (Article: "Girry") I don't think it is anywhere near Wikipedia quality. What I would really like is for it to be edited by someone who knows their business. Is there a way to flag it for expansion and improvement?

P.S. Thanks for the message. It made me feel much more welcome! Thanks for your time. Sageofwisdom 19:38, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

LIVE IRC CHARTER DEBATE
There are many proposals to change the charter floating around Esperanza right now. Let's talk about all of them in an Esperanza IRC charter "debate". I believe a good time would be exactly one week from today. In US Eastern Time, 5:30pm, next week, on Friday. What do you think? Wiki e Zach| talk  04:29, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Lol, thanks for the warm welcome to Esperenza. And I was wondering how to request an article for Well of Souls I mean the game by the way. It says it's also a game from synthetic-reality but it does not have a page or a link for it, if you could please at least make it so that I can create an article for the game that would be quite helpful, thank you again.

Blocking message
Hi. Please provide more descriptive reasons for blocks than (v). The blocking message is the explanation of the block that a user (on IPs, it's possible that it's a different user) sees when they try to edit the page. Thanks. Zocky | picture popups 05:09, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Block summaries
I noticed that you recently blocked a user for having an inapropriate username - "06:49, 6 December 2006 Shreshth91 (Talk | contribs | block) blocked "Cordlesstwat (contribs)" with an expiry time of indefinite (user...)"

Please note that the block summary is seen by the blocked user. It should explain to someone who unfamiliar with Wikipedia why they have been blocked. For this reason it should be a sentence without jargon and should ideally link to the policy they have been blocked for violating.

Your summary is not sufficient in this regard. Although in this instance the reason the username is inapropriate is clear, there are other occasions when the reason would not be obvious to anybody not intimately acquainted with our blocking policy. Compare the following edit summary, which is a model of good practice:

"08:22, 6 December 2006 Winhunter (Talk | contribs | block) blocked "Holy crap I don't know who the hell we think we are (contribs)" with an expiry time of indefinite (Please read our our username policy and choose another name)". (crossposted to WP:AN) Thryduulf 09:31, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Regardless of whether they are explained or not, blocked messages should not contain jargon or in jokes. Thryduulf 10:25, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * There are cases where the user knows full well they have chosen an offensive username. However, there are plenty of situations where a user could have chosen a name in good faith but fall foul of the policy. There are many other situations where the intent cannot be determined, so its good practice to always use descriptive summaries. Thryduulf 10:54, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Regarding this specific example, I had no idea of the background to this - I don't frequent IRC (partly because I've never got it to work, and partly I'd never get anything done!), I just saw it on the block log which I was browsing to see how long a vandal I was dealing with last night was blocked for. Thryduulf 10:57, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

There is really no point arguing over this, Shreshth. Always put in link to the WP:USERNAME page when you're blocking someone for an inappropriate username. &mdash; Nearly Headless Nick  {L} 11:02, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Blocking of 194.83.84.15
Hi Shreshth91! I notice you have blocked 194.83.84.15 for a period of 7 days. Yes I agree with your reason for blocking and I undoubetly see the "damage" to WP, but this IP address is a proxy server providing to Yale College, Wrexham, with many thousands of users and staff (over 2500 machines so I believe). I know measures are in place to aid a similar situation with AOL IP adresses, but may I ask is seven days appropriate to a shared IP address? I'm not saying unblock the address (even though I am a student at the college), I'd just like to know the reasoning for the longer duration block for a shared IP. Thanks in advance Marbles333 13:10, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Message against vandalism??
Hello, I´m a romanian user of Wikipedia and I never have changed the articles of the en.wp. Nevertheless I was notified that I have changed the page "Moon Palace". See: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:84.162.208.44&redirect=no. Why? I am not for blame for that. See also my user page --84.162.208.44 16:32, 12 December 2006 (UTC) (sorry for the mistakes) I see now that the page "Moon Palace" was really been changed from an user 84.162.208.44. This is (now??) the IP-adress of my personal computer, so I do not understand that. I can only declare: it wasn´t me. --84.162.208.44 16:40, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
