Recent speedy tagging of yours
Hi, I see you've recently speedy-tagged a bunch of pages in User:IL7Soulhunter's userspace, citing a closed MFD. Can you point me to where the MFD is archived? I'm having trouble finding it. Thanks. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 20:04, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, WP:MYSPACE isn't a speedy deletion criteria (you can find the list of valid criteria here), so you'll have to take them to MFD before they can be deleted. Sorry. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 20:26, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I see this has already been addressed; I was going to ask about this tag. G6? With no MfD? Totally inappropriate in a few different ways. Tan      39  22:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Also wanted to check in here. What's the deal, Cream? Glass  Cobra  22:54, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Excuse me, i put those articles in my userspace so they wouldn't get deleted. Isn't that what userspace is for? Did i ever delete anyone else's subpages? (find out here) --IL7Soulhunter&#39;s extra account (talk) 23:05, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Hello! Let me explain, as i browsed trough many userpages, i found some that didn't respect the WP:MYSPACE rule on Wikipedia. I quote this exactly:

The focus of user pages should not be social networking, but rather providing a foundation for effective collaboration. wich is found in the same page. While investigating, i also questioned the age of the creator of these pages. Some pictures clearly identifies a underage child. As a concerned adult, i am trying my best to make efforts to protect children. -- ɔɹǝɐ ɯ ʎ! Talk 23:30, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I just need to say, i do not know when they were taken, so it may have been a decade ago. --IL7Soulhunter&#39;s extra account (talk) 23:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The "2005/6" parts were wildly random guesses. --IL7Soulhunter&#39;s extra account (talk) 23:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * If you have an issue with userspace content, you should take it to MfD if you cannot find a CSD tag that fits the criteria. Tagging as "G6" was horribly awry - especially since some admins (me included) sometimes trust the tagger too much and delete without verifying its validity. Please make an effort to comply with current deletion policies in the future. Tan      39  00:27, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

thankspam
Thanks for !voting, oppose or not. The massive number of opposes, all on the same grounds, probably means my candidacy was horribly deformed from the start :D Anyway, appreciate your taking the time. Someday I may ask you about the art of vandalfighting. Cheers!  Mr. IP  《 Defender of Open Editing 》 14:14, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Maybe you would like to take a look at this chap:User:DualHelix? --Deepak D'Souza (talk • contribs) 11:43, 7 August 2008 (UTC) ;-) By 127.0.0.1 ( Report  ) [ Evidence| Block ] On ::  14:15, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Eh! I saw you too...Now let me file a ANI myself on the 'accusers'
 * Thanks for putting up the CU. I will add to it as soon as I am free. Unlike the last time where the admin closed it for lack of disruptive editing, this time we have reason to beleieve that Raunak was merely preparing socks for a longdrawn edit war. If you have followed the Brahmosim related threads(Ill post you the links soon), you might know what I am talking about.

B.t.w if I a remeber correctly his first account was User:Raunakroy not RRaunak, but I can't find it. Do you have any idea? --Deepak D'Souza (talk • contribs) 04:26, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Got him! After I undid RRaunak's request to delte his userpage, the next request was made by DualHelix, not by RRaunak!! I did't know because when I checked my watchlist the page had already been deleted. This time he has been caught red handed. We dont need more evidence. --Deepak D'Souza (talk • contribs) 04:39, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: My edit counter
It still seems to be working at the moment. The main (very slow) counter is based on screen-scraping, which should not be affected by the interfaces involved; the quick-count is based on the now obsolete query.php (is that what you were talking about), so I may have to try to update that at some point. (query.php was the only interface that provided that count when I wrote the script.) --ais523 18:55, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk page
Some IP falsely placed a sockpuppet tag on your talk page. I reverted it. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 11:51, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

You have tagged this page for speedy deletion but I don't understand the reasoning. cc-by-3.0 is an acceptable license. If you are claiming that it is a copyright violation, you need a different category (and the original source). Am I missing something here? Rmhermen (talk) 23:38, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello Cream. Regarding your sock notice for this IP, I have extended the block to 1 month per your information. EdJohnston (talk) 17:55, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

59.96.104.213
Are you talking of 59.96.104.213 ? I have reported this user to BSNL by phone but they told they will give the vandal a permanent IP address.as to this it is a dynamic IP and nothing can be done Cheers Renaulte (talk) 15:29, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Image permission problem with Image:Efgdance.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Efgdance.gif I noticed that that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org].

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Giggy 08:25, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Vandal fighting...
CREAM!!! Hey, I needed your help. If I see vandalism somewhere and revert it (and if its rather recent) what should I put on the vandal's talk page? If it is a repeat offense (like 3 warnings already), what should I do? I figured you would know about it... ;) Erm.. I mean, since you are a vandal fighter yourself. Also, because you are online (supposedly). Thanks in advance :D

 Lucifer  (Talk)  20:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, Doing reverting manually is a pain. But you can get tools such as Huggle or VandalFighter. I have a huge preference for Huggle since it does it all automatically. Grab it at Wp:Huggle -- crea ɯ y! Talk 20:35, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Newpage patrolling
Hi. Thank you for your help with the vital work of patrolling new pages. I noticed that you are not marking some of the pages you've reviewed as patrolled. Please do remember to click the 'mark this page as patrolled' link at the bottom of the new page if you have performed the standard patrolling tasks. Where appropriate, doing so saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page, so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thanks again for volunteering your time at the new pages patrol project. JagunTalkContribs 01:48, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
