Misplaced Pages

Hi fellow Sandwich artist

Just noticed there's another person here on[REDACTED] crazy enough to work at Subway. btw, do you know what's really in the chicken teriyaki ? Jcam 03:31, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

Andrew (manager) tells me simply that its a "Japanese style chicken" and I've never asked Tim (owner) before. I might ask him next time I speak to him! I'm in UK by the way... Deskana 18:07, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

It was a bit of a joke, Deskana. I think teriyaki is really gross. But 'tis good to see Subway representin' on Misplaced Pages. Jcam 01:53, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Call me Dan... and how can Chicken Teriyaki be gross? It's great! I always get one whenever I have Sundays off... sub of the day! Yeah! Deskana 15:16, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

I guess maybe it's just me. I'd rather eat haggis. Anyway, good meeting you, and I'll see you around, Dan. BTW, you can call me J. Jcam 23:47, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

ATA Gene

As far as it's been shown in the show, it's permanent. Rodney was given it in episode 2 and he still works. For example, he flew a jumper in The Defiant One.--Andromeda 02:45, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Namr assoc. w/ FR Wiki attack?

Hi. I'm trying to stomp out attacks and identify the vandals involved in an orchestrated campaign by a far-Right website aimed at substantially POV'ing several Wiki articles that started on 30 December. The user Namr fits the profile to a T, even in specifically attacking the three specific articles mentioned by FreeRepublic:

-- Namr's vandalism log --

1. 01:59, 31 December 2005 (hist) (diff) Talk:George W. Bush (→Free Republic "Action Alert")
2. 01:55, 31 December 2005 (hist) (diff) Abortion
3. 01:53, 31 December 2005 (hist) (diff) Kwanzaa

For more information, please see Talk:Abortion. Thanks — HopeSeekr of xMule

Zerging

Zergling rush was on the community portal listed for merge into Zerging. It's merely cruft and should be left in the main article on all types of "cheap rushes" from many games.--Zxcvbnm 20:49, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Will tilde from now on. 195.153.219.170 09:05, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Great. Cheers! Deskana (talk page) 18:37, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Edit conflict on Talk:George W. Bush

Sorry about that. I was trying to just add {{unsigned}} tags for 195.153.219.170 (I guess you already had by the time I saved) and I'm not sure how I ended up overwriting your edit. I don't remember seeing an edit conflict notice, but that's what it must have been since our edits were so close together. Anyway, my apologies. --Mr. Billion 09:22, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

No need for apologies, my friend! I thought you reverted my comments. Never mind! Deskana (talk page) 18:35, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Help needed with 81.132.132.3

Hi Deskana, I moved this conversation from WP:AIV. I'll also let LtPowers know so he or she can respond to you here. --Deathphoenix 20:59, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

• Help needed with 81.132.132.3 . This user isn't vandalising but is doing something very weird with Craig Gannon. Appears to have added an (overly) extensive discography and is now proceeding to make dozens of edits that make no changes one after the other. I don't know how to proceed. Administrator assistance required. Thanks. Deskana (talk) 20:40, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
  • It might be a bot repeatedly uploading the same version so that even if anyone changes it back, it will get automatically uploaded again. I think blocking the IP is a good idea. Nobody in their right mind would spend hours pressing send non-stop! Deskana (talk) 20:43, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
    • That seems unlikely. WP doesn't usually record a change as having occurred if the version isn't changed in some way. I looked at a few of the edits. In one, a comma was added. In a couple of others, a paragraph was highlighted as different, but I couldn't see any changes. It's possible this is a human. Powers 20:49, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
      • Please take this elsewhere, such as WP:AN, WP:ANI, or the village pump. This page is for non-admins to request that admins quickly block blatant vandals for vandalising articles. --Deathphoenix 20:59, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
      • Never mind, seems like the above IP was blocked by another admin. If you want, you can still contact LtPowers, but I don't think you'll need to do that. Thanks for your patience. --Deathphoenix 21:02, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
        • Phew. Glad that's over. I wasn't quite sure what was going on. Thanks! Deskana (talk) 21:03, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

RFR poll

Hi, on the RFR poll, you said "infact, from how Rollback is described, I'd prefer the long way.". Could you explain, I'm not sure what you mean? Thanks, Talrias (t | e | c) 11:26, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Well, there have been several cases where I have had to clean up after an admin. They hit the rollback button and it reverts to the last change not by that user. However, in some cases, the vandalism comes from multiple users. The admin, not realising this, simply reverts to the last version. I have to come and revert further back.

Also, it doesn't seem to have the ability to give customised edit summaries, just the blanket "Reverted edits by USER_A (talk) to last version by USER_B". I prefer to give customised summaries that accurately describe why I reverted the edits, if its not clear vandalism. Were these problems not problems (such as clicking on a checkbox to select the version to revert to, which is how it might be, I don't know since I've observed it to not be and never had rollback privileges myself, AND giving customised edit summaries) I'd feel less reserved about rollback. I'm not that bothered about loading several pages to revert. I hope that clarifies my viewpoint. Deskana (talk) 17:25, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
