[edit] User:76.126.4.212

Greetings. I was cleaning out some CAT:TEMP pages and came across User talk:76.126.4.212, that you'd indefblocked. I've been told that, normally, we don't indefblock IPs as such. The reasoning is that if the user changes ISP and the blocked IP were eventually assigned to a new computer, it would in turn be indefblocked. Would you consider unblocking and reblocking them say, for 6 months or perhaps a year? Thanks for your consideration, --Bradeos Graphon (talk) 22:32, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Heh, no you are mistaken. That IP was blocked indef by an other admin, I reduced the block to 31 hours and struck out the "indef blocked" message from that admin. I also left that admin a note about it. Thanks for the message none the less though. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 22:37, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Oops, sorry. The old CAT:TEMP notice was still on the template you crossed off. I left a note for you by mistake 'cause you were the last warning on the page. My bad! I'll take the template off the old notice. Thanks! --Bradeos Graphon (talk) 22:42, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] User:125.255.1.104

Hi, can you re-block this user. It appears he has been unblocked, and he has vandalised again.

If you saw that game, those edits are completely justified.

[edit] Help

Would you help me create an image of Duy Tân. Thanks. 96.229.179.106 (talk) 05:09, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

I'd love to, but my skill with images is very sub-par. You could read Help:Images and other uploaded files and see if that will help you. Happy editing, KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 05:11, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry, don't block me. It was a mistake

[edit] Vandalism question

Hello. I don't understand why 212.117.106.97 (talk · contribs) is "not a vandal". It is a school's IP Address. Simply because its a school's IP Address does that mean it can continue to be abused? Thanks for the help. -- AJ24 (talk) 10:00, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

I suspect you are referring to my removal of the user from AIV? I didn't mean to use that particular edit summary, I reverted myself and used an other. I removed the listing because the vandal is not active. AIV is for active vandals only. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 10:02, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Stop Deleting my Articles

I just signed up last night and I kep trying to create an article last night called Eccentric Fatlity. It had a pic and a small article written into it. It was getting late so I stopped, and when I woke up this morning to resume editing, my article was gone, so I ask you this nicely, please stop deleting my article about Eccentric Fatalty unde the same title name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Natron bomb (talk • contribs)

[edit] Deleted Emmett H. Walker, Jr. article

Hi I see you speedily deleted my article on Lieut. Gen Emmett H. Walker, Jr. as a 'Biographical article that doesn't assert the significance of its subject'. This is an obvious mistake. The article does point out prominently that he was at one time the Chief of the National Guard of the United States - which is a major military command in the US. Furthermore he was a World War II hero winning both the Silver and Bronze stars!!. I would also point out that other former chiefs of the National Guard have pages up eg. John B. Conway, Raymond F. Rees and Russell C. Davis. As such I urge you to reinstate the article. Kiwipat (talk) 20:06, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I was a little hesitant when I was contemplating whether or not the article failed the SD criteria under A7, but in the end I felt it did. I'm also hesitant to un-delete the article as I still feel it fails A7. You are most welcome to take the article to DRV, I have no objections to that. I know it must be annoying when an article you created is deleted, I've gone through it myself. Happy editing. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 20:13, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Request

My bad, I had to change so many links to point to the new image (on another project) that I forgot to do so here. Yonatan ^talk 20:57, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Here's another IP sock he's using - Special:Contributions/142.162.161.238. Funeral 23:43, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Blocked. Thanks for letting me know. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 23:46, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Buffalo Wings and Rings

What have I done wrong? You have sent me a first and final warning that I do not understand. Thanks.Buffalo Wings and Rings

You are creating pages that blatantly advertise "Buffalo Wings and Rings". KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 23:51, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] God Fires Man wiki page

Could you not delete the music page for the band God Fires Man please. The page I created complies with the criteria for bands and musicians.

They have had notable coverage in UK press. They have toured the UK with Hundred Reasons and will go on extensive touring of Europe and USA in 2008. They contain 2 band members whose previous bands have been signed to a major recroding label (Geffen Records), and 3 former bands who have undertaken extensive global touring over the past decade. The producer of their forth coming album has produced major label albums by Cave In, and the mixer has mixed albums for Deftones and Audioslave in the past. Their lead single from latest EP "Dark" is getting notable radio plays on Radio 1 and XFM in the UK.

Publishing of this page would be much appreciated as it will myself the time of redoing it.

Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bornalion (talk • contribs) 23:52, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

A band that hasn't even released an album yet, does not deserve a Wikipedia article. Take it to DRV if you like though. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 00:03, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ok

sorry I wil now stop-100 more years of wikipedia! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.142.236.124 (talk) 00:13, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Buffalo Wings and Rings CTD

The page describes the company in a fair way. Many companies are described in the same manner. Can you tell me what is advertising in your mind and should be removed to be compliant. Is there a special page of the dos and donts. I have tried to read all policies related to advertising and could find one that I have violated. Thanks.Buffalo Wings and Rings —Preceding comment was added at 01:55, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure how you see it that way. Please read this page. Your article is not only spam, I also fear it would fail our notability, as well as our reliable sources policies. Please note that blogs, self-published content, etc, etc, are not reliable sources.

Simply being a restaurant, or a chain of restaurants does not make something notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Is it culturally significant? Can you provide third party sources that you could cite? Has it had vast media coverage? Remember Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it is not a collection of whatever you want or think should be in it.

[edit] User talk:Xn4

Many thanks! Xn4 04:22, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, my talk page is now coming under the same Kenneth Hari attacks (presumably by the same person or group of people) from more than one IP address. Would it be possible to block them all, please? Many thanks. Xn4 04:43, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

You are welcome. It looks like Luna Santin has already blocked and protected your talk page. Happy editing. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 04:44, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm not sure it's a good thing for me to have my talk page protected, leaving this aggressive individual or group with a kind of success? Would you please see Special:Contributions/66.92.109.66 and Special:Contributions/67.85.242.195 as well as the original Special:Contributions/24.0.21.173? Many thanks, again. Xn4 04:54, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Yes I've seen them, they have already been blocked by Luna Santin. Your page isn't permanently protected, it's just temporary until the vandals get bored of waiting, it won't cause harm. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 04:57, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Many thanks. I couldn't see that the most recent two had been blocked, as the message to say so hasn't been added to their pages. regards, Xn4 05:00, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
