A barnstar for you!

	The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
	Thank you for protecting my talk page. Keep up the great work! (: Webclient101 (talk) 23:44, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Well when will you be 'done'?

I was trying to help out this person: http://en.wikipedia.org/Special:FeedbackDashboard/55812

Regards. Ariconte (talk) 05:42, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

I figured that's what you were doing, and that's admirable. But I don't think that person is trying to help us. Tonight's activity regarding that article has been problematic, as you can see from the histories. --Bongwarrior (talk) 05:49, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Yes, I have now looked at sone of the entries and the ANI entry. I'm still confused as to what it is all about.... what is a 'scavanger hunt' on a wiki???? Will stop my involvement. Regards, Ariconte (talk) 05:57, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Not sure, exactly. I think fans of the show have a contest to try to edit silly things into the article. There is a history of vandalism associated with those actors and that show, so it's nothing particularly new, I guess. --Bongwarrior (talk) 06:01, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Jared Padalecki

I am aware that you will most likely retaliate to this message with a rather angry reply, but I am quite distressed at your inability to have fun. While it may be inconvenient for some users to have GISHWHES team names on Jared's wiki page, it is also a sign of your uncaring attitude to charities that you have locked down his page. I politely request that you allow ALL GISHWHES participants to post on his page for the 6 days (in reality not a very long span of time) so that we may complete our challenge and raise more money for Misha Collins' charity RandomActs. Upon the end of the event I will personally clean the page and ensure it is back to it's regular standard of information. On another note, I am sure Jared Padalecki himself would approve of our use of his[REDACTED] page for Misha Collins' event. I also appologise if my formating of this request is incorrect as I am new at editing Misplaced Pages Yours sincerely Faith Lavinia (talk) 06:30, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Not only am I not angry, I'm not even mildly annoyed. Having said that, a lot of volunteers put a lot of work into making Misplaced Pages as accurate and informative as possible. This scavenger hunt appears to be incompatible with the best interests of our little encyclopedia project, so you will have to complete your challenges another way. --Bongwarrior (talk) 06:52, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Any chance you can allow editing of Jared Padalecki's page or know how I can do it? It's for Misha Collins, it's a Gishwhes task. Here's a kitten and a please. Please?

Forbesyy (talk) 06:59, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Edit: It'd just need to be up long enough for me to grab a screenshot, then Im happy to put it back to normal.

Thank you for the kitten, but I'm afraid that's not possible. See the section above. --Bongwarrior (talk) 07:05, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Jared Padelecki page

Hi I know you have probably had enough of the strange edits and having to 'tidy' up after them, but as others have mentioned this is in aid of GISHWHES... a scavenger hunt that brings people together, encourages artistic flair and originality, it also more importantly gets people raising money for international concerns and local charities too.... please lift the embargo on the editing... it all finishes after the weekend... Pretty Please.... Thank you FuzzyD Much love and positivity your way :) Source — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.150.141.120 (talk) 09:45, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

The hunt is apparently continuing on the Sam Winchester page, since the Jared Padalecki page is locked. Might that be rectified? Much thanks. --‖ Ebyabe - Opposites Attract ‖ 17:44, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, it looks like someone else took care of it. --Bongwarrior (talk) 18:38, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Gishwhes

Please unprotect the Jared Padelecki page because my Team needs it from me for Misha Collins hunt? That all We want.

Thank you, Christine Eliza — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.229.28 (talk) 19:55, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but that's not happening. Please see the related discussions above. --Bongwarrior (talk) 19:58, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Laura Ramsey

Hey there, sorry I didn't respond earlier, that episode made me cease caring for a while. I responded on my talk page, thanks. JesseRafe (talk) 17:46, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

ANI discussion

Hello. I left a note on the administrators' noticeboard that you may find interesting. It would be great to hear your thoughts. Thanks! - Eureka Lott 02:37, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know, I vaguely remember blocking and deleting a few of those. --Bongwarrior (talk) 06:59, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Editor

Good evening. Saw that you are admin for Misplaced Pages. I occasionally get on an edit , usually when I see some idiot put something outlandish and flat wrong. I read on wiki a ton. How would I move up my senority so to speak so I can edit even more articles? IE like the one on Halloween. You locked it and rightfully so, I think it was a good move. However in the opening paragraph last line it ends by saying (paraphrasing) "that Halloween has turned in to robbing and looting. Which I don't think is accurate. Nor does it have a proper citation to back that assertion up in my opinion.

U can look at my prior edits to see my street cred lol .... If you could direct on the process to move up in rank to be able to have access and edit more that would be much appreciated. Happy Halloween! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lottie20032 (talk • contribs) 02:55, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Im an idiot... Thought the above post woulda left my details. The above post and this post is from lottie20032

Thanks Lottie20032 (talk) 02:59, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Happy Halloween to you too, and thank you for offering to help. Your account has been around long enough that you are autoconfirmed, which basically means that you can edit 99.9% of all the pages on Misplaced Pages, whether they are semiprotected or not - you are able and encouraged to edit the Halloween article, for example. You don't really need any special permissions to be able to help, just a willingness to fix any problems that you notice. If you think a page might have been vandalized, there are some good tips at Misplaced Pages:Dealing with vandalism. Usually, all you will need to do is check the last edit and undo if needed, but sometimes it's a little trickier than that. If you see something wrong but you aren't sure how to fix it, there's nothing wrong with asking for some help. Take care. --Bongwarrior (talk) 07:21, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks

Many thanks, Bongwarrior, for keeping an eye out for vandalism on my personal pages. Regards, Pinethicket (talk) 10:24, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

And thanks for this. It happened like 10 seconds after I pulled up my watchlist! Thanks for keeping a close eye. :) • Jesse V. 21:53, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Apology

Sorry for my edits. I was just testing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hahahahohoho22222 (talk • contribs) 09:15, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Procedure query

• Please, what is the full procedure in blocking a user whose username's appropriateness is queried in Misplaced Pages:Usernames_for_administrator_attention/Bot? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:15, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Depends on how bad the name is, and how bad the edits are (if they have edited). And always take the bot reports with a grain of salt - a lot of those tend to be false positives. Which particular user were you wondering about? --Bongwarrior (talk) 10:22, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

• User:ALongBrownTurd, listed in Misplaced Pages:Usernames for administrator attention/Bot. One edit, which was vandalism. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:26, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I would probably {{Vaublock}} and disable their ability to create a different username. If it was just the username with no edits, I would probable softblock and let them choose a new name, but it is sometimes useful to let the report linger until they edit, in order to see what their intentions are. --Bongwarrior (talk) 10:39, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

• What should I also do in leaving messages and information on one page or another? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:42, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
