Comments from User:txgeekgirl regarding God's Learning Channel listing on Wikipedia

This listing has had a (vfd) for Vanity or Ad type status and placed on comment for delete by you. I am the webmaster for this television station, and have today modified the listing to be in line with similar listings for Christian TV such as Day Star and TBN. Just to note, what was listed before I made the changes today was NOT what was submitted by our chief engineer. Thank you. (UTC)

Point taken

From the guideline page Assume good faith:

[R]emember to be patient with newcomers, who will be unfamiliar with Wikipedia's culture and rules . . . many newcomers bring with them experience or expertise for which they expect immediate respect. Behaviours arising from these perspectives are not necessarily malicious.

My schooling was . . . eccentric. I came to regard a lack of grammatical and lexical knowledge as others might regard nails on a chalkboard. (My manifesto is Lynne Truss's Eats, Shoots and Leaves, an excellent and erudite work that has been mysteriously classified as humor.)

Just as I smelled triumph through a loophole of sorts, I read from the same page:

Correct, but don't scold.

Point taken.

As you may have gathered from my User page, I am very green here (here on the planet, I mean; I’m 16) and more than a bit sarcastic (treating comics as religious icons).

I think I cut myself on Hanlon’s Razor.

Thanks

Please move the templates Template:Dbraceyrulestalkpage, Template:Dbraceyrulestemplate and Template:Dbraceyrulestemplate2 into your user space. Templates that are only for your personal use do not belong in the general Template area. For instance, you could move Template:Dbraceyrulestemplate2 to User:Dbraceyrules/template2 and then use it by putting {{User:Dbraceyrules/template2}} on your user page. For detailed information on how to move a page, see m:Help:Moving a page. I have asked you to do this before. If you do not move these templates within 3 days, I will nominate them on Wikipedia:Templates for deletion. FreplySpang (talk) 23:34, 11 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Umm hey. Yeah I think I posted it on the wrong page. Sorry! --Steven P.S. It got deleted anyhow. Also I'm unexperienced with wikipedia so I hope you understnad my mistake. P.P.S. The articles you have created are interesting.

It's true. Rita Fan -- like most Americans and Mainland Chinese -- gets wet between her legs at the sight of people who believe in liberty, equality, and democracy being slaughtered.

My appreciation

Thanks for your help in reverting the vandal hitting my user page. An oddity: The IP that was spuriously adding my name to various articles had been used, only two hours earlier, to create a stub about Jimmy "Jax" Pinchak. I thought it might be a hoax but it's a real child actor. He's appearing in a TV series that was mentioned in the stub but with a red link, so I did a little research and wrote Over There (series). So the siege of vandalism resulted in a small expansion of our coverage. Strange are the ways of the wiki. JamesMLane 22:09, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yo it be da bombe!

Thanks for the Infernokrush. Normally, those "updating to Ebonics" style things are derisive, but that one actually manages to keep the meaning of the scene rather well. Quite surprisingly good. Reminds me of my days in Carrboro, NC, when I had thoughts of writing a Midsummer's Night Dream set among street gangs, with Obi Wan (for Oberon) and Titania (for Titania...I didn't rethink everything) and a Theater In the Park for the theater in the park. Later, I saw what a hackneyed idea it was. Everyone has done it. Anyway, it's a good non-sonnet piece, alright. Geogre 19:31, 22 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It is the first time that I have contributed to the Wikipedia and I was not trying to make links to commercial sites or promote a site, I am just trying to add information that I thought was relevant and was still in the process of editing it. from neonexis

AFF content changes

Hi, I wanted to let you know of the discussion I've been having with this editor (tregoweth) as well. I'm going to follow these suggestions for adding AFF links to important articles on Wikipedia. Please let me know you are in agreement with him before I make the changes only to have them deleted again. Thanks for your help in adding content to Wikipedia!

"In reply to your comment on my user page, it's still advertising, even if the organization is worthy and nonprofit. Dropping plugs into articles is not the way to go about it.

If there is an article about a particular film, then a link to AFF would probably be OK. But adding a blurb about a movie to an article about someone interviewed in the movie is a bit much. tregoweth 15:22, July 26, 2005 (UTC)

The general thing to remember is Wikipedia is not a soapbox. One problem is that some of the text you inserted seemed to come direct from marketing materials, which is jarring in an encyclopedia article. In the Lillian Gish article, for example, you added:

The Emmy-award winning documentary Lillian Gish: An Actor's Life for Me by Terry Sanders of American Film Foundation is a personal and candid celebration of the actress' life.

I would suggest something more neutral, like: Gish's life is documented in [Terry Sanders]' 1999 documentary [Lillian Gish: An Actor's Life for Me].

And, in external links,

Lillian Gish: An Actor's Life for Me (American Film Foundation)

In some of the articles, mentioning that they appeared in such-and-such documentary seems odd, especially if the article is very short and they are just an interviewee, not the subject. Obviously, Maya Lin's documentary should be in the article,, since it won an Oscar; the Gish and Neil Simon documentaries probably deserve mention also. But something like Into the Future isn't a big part of Tim Berners-Lee's career, so it probably shouldn't be in the article. It may be worth mentioning in Robert MacNeil's article among his other works, but just as a straight factual item ("narrator and interviewee, Into the Future (2000 documentary)").

Also, I apologize if I've come across as harsh or otherwise negative.; Any time I see someone add a lot of links to one site, the "spammer!" alarms go off in my head, but I now see that you meant well. Feel free to ask me for any more help; I'm just a regular user, but I think I know my way around here. :) tregoweth 02:08, July 27, 2005 (UTC) "

Thanks

Thanks for reverting the vandalism of my user page. Actually, this whole group of IP 212.138.47.* have been into this type of behavior, my user page was vandalized several times by one of them, until the IP was blocked by User:Mel Etitis yesterday. The vandal then created an account and vandalized my page again, which Mel blocked. So, today, the vandal resorted to making an account yet again just to vandalize my page. The main grudge the vandal bears against me is quite surprising, at least to me. If you look into the page history of Rohingya, you can see that the article was initially a copyvio from a website. I organized the article into sections and edited the copyvio sections, added "External links" section (which was previously named as "Free Rohingya campaign web directory" or something like that. I also pointed that out in the talk page (Talk:Rohingya). For some surprising reason, the IP block 212.138.47.* were quite angry with the organization and left obscene comments on the talk page. Recently, they went on asking people how to delete user pages (See User talk:Malathion and User talk:Ragib). After that, they started leaving {{vfd}} and {{speedy}} tags in the talk page of one of the persons I corresponded about this (see User talk:Kunyia) and in my user page. I realize that the IP block is a dynamic IP range, and there are good edits from that range, but all of the vandals participating in the above vandalisms are from 212.138.47.* . My only hope is that they'd get tired of it and stop.

Anyway, thanks for keeping an eye on the vandals ... I appreciate the revert of vandalism in my page. --Ragib 05:56, 30 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to disturb you, but I see you participated on the reverts for Costco. The user that was reverted has dropped me some notes in my talk which perhaps you'd like to read and comment on.

Notes from User:216.197.175.163

Sorry about this, I don't know how else to talk to you.

Alright, here's the deal on my musicianforums.com stuff.

Over at musicianforums.com, we made an mx dictionary with all of the popular terms and such and explaining their meanings and origins. I was then asked by a mod to index all of the definitions on wikipedia. I have also been putting the "Courtesy of musicianforums.com" in, so that the users of mx will see that the definition refers to that forum, and not to something else, to prevent confusion. Don't worry this isn't spam, and it even has the potential to increase wikipedia's traffic by up to 80,000 users!

So, in conclusion, there are no copyright issues, as not only do I have permission to post these definitions, but I was asked to. Not only that, but I'm bringing in site views, traffic, definitions, and even new users for you, wikipedia.

Anyways, sorry for any confusion, and I'm going to continue posting definitions. Also, if you explain to me how to use user talk, I will utilize it next time around.

Thanks, -Adam

So you may not need more traffic. As for unhelpful and unencyclopedic, they are helping up to 80,000 people use wiki for popular internet definitions, and a large portion of these definitions apply to other internet forums aswell. Unenecyclopedic? I think for the most part, they are encyclopedic, with a few exceptions. Feel free to delete the exceptions, but I really don't think that all of my definitions should be removed, as some of them actually are helpful and have not been indexed yet.

Thanks Again, -Adam

Hello!

Just noticed you comment on the Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Gabrielsimon/Evidence page, and thought I'd make a quick introduction, mostly based on your location in Boston. I am such a fan of Boston, the city and its various sport teams that I named my dog Boston! I have made several trips there and always enjoy the ambiance and history of the place. I had an especially interesting experience (to me at least) when I was walking through the Old North section of town and accidentally found myself on the "Coops Hill Burying Ground"(?) Resting place of the (in)famous Mathers and John Paul Jones, as well as numerous other notable people. In fact, just writing this makes me want to do a bit of research and add it to the Boston article. Regardless just a short note indicating my appreciation and good wishes for you and all the other dedicated editors and admins here. Good luck to all of us! See you round the wiki!

AOL Blocking Problems

Please be aware that when you autoblock an AOL user, you also block other editors who are randomly assigned the same IP number.

This problem is an ongoing one for me. Please see my user page: User:WBardwin/AOL Block Collection. I would appreciate a prompt removal of this block (see below). Thank you. WBardwin 06:05, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Your user name or IP address has been blocked by FreplySpang.

The reason given is this: Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "MRS LOL". The reason given for MRS LOL's block is: "vandalism, was warned". Your IP address is 207.200.116.196.

Determining sockpuppetry

FS, I've never come to you with anything like this before, but you seem like the approachable type. I've been an admin for 2 days now, and I'm definitely over my head with this one.

User:Agriculture is concerned that User:Hipocrite is a sock puppet created solely to criticize him. I looked around a bit, and it seems like his idea may have merit. The big caveat is that Hipocrite has not, to the best of my knowledge, made any specific attacks against Agriculture nor has he broken any other WP policies outright. He is maintaining user subpages where he is listing every edit made by Agriculture, which Agriculture views as threatening. I have no idea how to proceed from here. Any advice?

I think you should look at the users edit history, and see if it goes back to substantially before whatver conflict the user was alledged to have been created for. You should also look to see that they have a repeatable editing history - for instance, that they edited an article, say, John Lott through their entire career at the encyclopedia. For a prime example of an obvious not-sockpuppet, you could do a cursory investigation of my edit history. You will find the prospects of me being a sockpuppet are not promising.

Birthday

If I can assume from your most recent edit to your userpage that you just experienced a birthday, we're almost exactly the same age. 21st or 22nd of August? I'm on the 21st. Joyous (talk) 01:57, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

Ya, sorry. It may be an unnintentional mistake. Can you say me how I can upload Multimedia files. Cyborg Apollo 22:47, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

How come only 24 hours though? Was I excessive with a weeklong ban? S/he'd already been banned several times. Fernando Rizo T/C 04:24, 23 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
