Vandal

His edits after you wrote the note were even worse. I've blocked him until he says he's ready to play nicely. Most likely just a passing vandal though. -Will Beback 01:22, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Just did not understand the process. Sorry! Not an act of vandalism. Hope that there will be a list of architects of malian origins as there is a list malian writers.

This is just a reminder that you've made 3 reverts to Lolicon. If you make any more you will be blocked for WP:3RR. (I've made my three reverts too.) Ashibaka tock

You're very welcome. Good luck with the cause. Keppa 23:40, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

P.S., I really appreciate the (unsolicited) support you've given Colors (Band) and Voice Male, two articles that I started. Keppa 20:56, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Embarazada

Hi Primetime. I'm writing this here because I thought it wasn't relevant to the AfD discussion. I wanted to reassure you that my reasons for mentioning the fact that you'd written messages to inclusionists asking them to vote were not personal - I mentioned it because I genuinely thought it was relevant to the discussion. I understand that people who look at AfD are not a cross-section of the community, and I do not see anything wrong with telling people that there is a vote going on - as long as one does not intentionally tell only those people who are more likely to agree with you, as they are inclusionists. This, I believe will skew the vote. Anyway, I hope there are no hard feelings. ConDem 05:46, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Wiktionary

Well, granted the fact that I haven't touched it, I think it says plenty (though I can't find it, so thats another matter altogether). No idea if the rest of the community will follow suit though -- Tawker 08:08, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm not very happy with your edit to Lolicon

Hi Primetime. I noticed that you reverted my edit to Lolicon, restoring the version preferred by soon-to-be-banned troll User:The Psycho and a new anon IP account. You know, I took the time to write a fairly lengthy description of why I made my original edit. But you didn't address that, on the talk page or even in the edit summary.

I guess what I'm saying is, I'm going to need some justification for what you did, OK? Thanks. Herostratus 21:08, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

• Gee, I didn't mean to sound threatening above. Given the fraught history of the page, I think it was a reasonable request. I would think that you would welcome the chance to offer a cogent explantion of your reasononing, under the circumstances, lest people mistakenly think that you are merely trolling pedophilia. So anyway, thank you for responding. Your statement that you "don't care about my lengthy explanation because I'm not an administrator" has the virtue of being, well, honest, as well as unique. Not, however, that of persuaviveness. Reverted.Herostratus 02:39, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

NPA

Herostratus' comment on Lolicon, while not entirely civil, was not a personal attack. Your warning was removed. Thanks. ⇒ SWATJester Aim _Fire! 06:26, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Picture placement

I'd strongly suggest that you use the talk page more and revert less. - brenneman 06:42, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Spanish Civil War image

I'd like to know more about an image you uploaded, Image:Nationalist soldiers capture Republican troops.gif. Which action does it depict? I'm working on Spanish Civil War battles, and I'd like to find a place for it in an appropriate article. Albrecht 22:33, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Okay, no problem. I'll see what I can do with it. Albrecht 16:49, 12 April

re Lolican talk page redaction

OK, fair enough, thanks for the heads-up I didn't summarize or alter your comment text in any way, I just moved it, cleaning up the page, but as I noted if that wasn't OK with anybody, fine. I thought it was clearer before, but whatever. I did re-add the new section for use of those editors who want to use it.

I don't get your reference to God. I'm a Unitarian, as it says on my userpage. You don't have to believe in God to believe that there are evil things in the world, I don't think.

Yes I had already gathered that you're here to help other people decide what to believe. I prefer to let them decide for themselves, but to each his own. Herostratus 11:22, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

List of shock sites

Someone has put this up for deletion yet again. Care to cast your vote? Skinmeister 86.128.222.36 12:36, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Edit conflict

We've had a small edit conflict. It seems the List of Shock sites debate wasnt closed yet; ive reverted your closing. Cheers, The Minister of War 19:25, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Links

Do whatever you want when you're editing; I couldn't care less. But don't lecture me on what's appropriate and don't tell me what I "should" be doing. Proteus (Talk) 21:37, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Oh, I'm wrong, am I? Perhaps you should read the MoS a bit more carefully, in particular the bit where it says " The following rules do not claim to be the last word on Misplaced Pages style." Proteus (Talk) 10:35, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

re: Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Embarazada

Sorry I missed your message. I have not been online in a while. Glad the outcome was "Keep". Please let me know of other voting proceedings you may need help with. LisaSastro 00:10, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Religious fanaticism

Would you care to explain your revert of Loom91's sensible changes without a shred of explanation on the talk page? On WP we don't summarily chuck other people's bona fide work. At the very least, you should have explained your opposition and worked carefully to retain the changes that you did not object to. As it stands right now, I think the article violates POV and attack rules by naming specific practices of specific religions. - the.crazy.russian τ ç ë 18:20, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

list of shock sites

That's three reverts. Better quit now. - brenneman 05:40, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, I just got your message, but as I was reverting the article an admin protected the wrong version. I'll keep an eye on it and revert it as soon as it's unprotected, unless someone beats me to it. Skinmeister 06:37, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

List of shock sites/Uncited

Are you even looking at what you're reverting. Sweet mother of Abraham Lincoln, why would you care if the links had "http" in front of them? The notice at the top is appropiate, and making a pseudo-subpage is actually a measure of good faith on my part. Verification policy is unshakeable, and that material wasn't verified as being a "shock site" so policy allows it to be removed outright. If you want to be taken seriously, choose your battles, don't do pointless reverts like that one. - brenneman 06:08, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your tireless effort on commenting on the list of shock sites article. There seem to be three disruptive users who are actively working against the consensus about this article. Keep up the good work. - Abscissa 17:29, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

HAI2U

The page does not appear to contain any information about the owner's anonymity, the identity of the model, her acting background, how its popularity has spread, or when the site started. Please check out the talk page, however I'll refrain from further removals to give you a chance to fix these problems. Christopher Parham (talk) 21:52, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

'Rollback'

Without wishing to comment on the edit itself, do remember that the use of automated rollback for non-vandal edits, such as this is seriously unpopular. Although you are not an admin (right?) ArbCom has reprimanded admins for using rollback in situations such as this, and really the same thing goes for using non-admin versions of it. -Splash 01:02, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Peace, brother

I've been sinking the boot into you something shocking the last couple of days. We're both clearly interested in what's good for the encyclopedia, so I'll try and not run roughshod over you as much in the future. If you're at all interested in hearing how I think that you could change your behavior, I'm happy to comply, but not unless you ask.

I always welcome criticism, constructive or otherwise. I know that you find fault with many things that I've done, but that at least I'd think you agree with. Tell me when you think I'm doing things wrong. I may not stop, but I will always listen.

brenneman 04:17, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

List of themed timelines

Thanks for the note at Misplaced Pages talk:Articles for deletion/List of themed timelines. I try to maintain transparency always, and should have thought of that. Oh, and it's re-opened, by the way. Next time don't be afraid to ask me to reverse my closes on my talk page.
brenneman 03:09, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

List of shock sites

Hey ... I see you disagree with my edits, but I wish you hadn't simply reverted everything. But, whatever. You're interested in this article. I think it's obvious that not every single link on that page is worth including. I'm interested in hearing what you think, and having a discussion on the talk page so we can make this article as good as possible. Mangojuice 21:52, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

• If you could reply (there) to this thanks. - brenneman 01:28, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

embarazada

No me puedo creer que un hablante que se define como de un nivel casi nativo pueda transcribir embarazada así como "ehm bahr ah ZAH dah". ¡Qué pecado más grave! Lo cambié a según el AFI. ¿Qué te parece? – Andyluciano 23:22, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Es que... Los vocales y los consonantes en español son muy pero muuuy diferentes de los del inglés. Eso de transcribirlo como si fueran palabras inglesas no tiene mucho sentido. Yo tampoco soy hablante nativo pero en mis experiencias yo sí sé que si lo pronunciaras así en un país hispano no te llevarías muy bien. Los vocales no son aspirados con , los consonantes B, Z, y D son muuuy diferentes, y para representar eso el AFI es mucho mejor. – Andyluciano 02:11, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

List of Shock Sites

Hey -- you haven't responded to some of my discussion and edits; could you let us know what you think on the talk page? I've culled out some of the clearly less remarkable sites, much still needs doing, though. Mangojuice 03:26, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

P.S. I noticed you removed the sockpuppet tag from User:Skinmeister. I know it doesn't look like much, but the evidence that was there was an outcome of a checkuser request, which means that that "likely" is backed up with lots more evidence than we get to see; this is the way RFCU works. I'm not reverting it, I just thought you should know... if someone reverts it back, don't get into an edit war over it, it's not worth it, trust me. Mangojuice 03:26, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Primetime. You are about to violate WP:3RR, colleague. `'mikka (t) 03:02, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

question

I was wondering if there was any way to find out why the Vernon Buckley pages and The Maytones pages were deleted thanks Chinamanjoe 03:22, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

No, I speedied them under A7 (band with no assertion of notability). --InShaneee 03:43, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

If you feel it's neccisary, go ahead and recreate and AfD The Maytones, but I don't think that Vernon Buckley needs that treatment, as per WP:MUSIC (as it essentially states that artists should redirect to their bands page until they gain notability outside of their band, and that article was only one or two lines). --InShaneee 03:50, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
