Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 14:10, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
I've responded to your maths question. You had the correct answer. Please sign all of your posts with four tildas: ~~~~. ~~ Dr Dec (Talk) ~~ 17:05, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Reference desks
You may be annoyed that there has been no answer to your "My Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 has an error!" question. But siting on the wikipedia reference desk posting stupid answers and advice to ask at Yahoo answers is not a welcome activity, and I'd be glad if you desisted. If you have a problem with the wikipeda reference desks, either go away, or help to improve them. --Tagishsimon (talk) 20:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Line bundles and cohomology
Please don't put comments like "Please post some more info" into empty section headers. I created the section so that I could edit it alone, and so not encounter edit conflict when trying to save my post. I was writing quite a long post, and if I started to edit the whole page then someone would have changed something in another section before I'd finished and I wouldn't be able to save because the version I was working on wouldn't contain the comment posted whilst I was editing. So, I created an empty section so that I could edit it in peace without worrying about edit conflicts. When I came to save, there was an edit conflict: you'd written "Please post some more info". So I had to go back a page, copy and cut my post, go back to the main article, edit that, and then paste in my post. ~~ Dr Dec (Talk) ~~ 14:02, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
Can someone please add qui to EricJII's page?Accdude92 (talk) (sign) 23:57, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Reference desk...
Re this: that type of warning is not particularly helpful nor useful when answers have already been given. As long as it's on a reference desk, there is no need to be anal and get it moved to another reference desk. One other thing: I notice you have made one constructive edit to the mainspace, and that was almost 9 months ago, on Thursday 11/12/08. Be aware that you can be blocked if it is evident you aren't here to build the encyclopaedia. Xenon54 / talk / 16:45, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
What did I do wrong with installing MiszaBot III?Accdude92 (talk) (sign) 16:23, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
- One aesthetic thing: the template should go at the top of your page. I've done it for you. You don't appear to have done anything else wrong. Be aware that the bot only runs once a day, so you should wait 24-36 hours from the time you first added the template. If still nothing happens, then it would be a good idea to ask Misza13 to help you. Xenon54 / talk / 16:30, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Do I still have to create the icon to the page that MiszaBot III creates?Accdude92 (talk) (sign) 13:24, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
- It would be a good idea. User talk:Accdude92/Archive 3 is where you want to link. Xenon54 / talk / 13:35, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
Is there anyway that I can use wikipedia markup to create a countdown to a specific date?Accdude92 (talk) (sign) 14:00, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
- (Please don't use the template as a section header. It causes problems.) You can, but it's complicated. It looks like this (original by Tim Song, copied from helpdesk):
{{#expr: trunc (({{#time:U|20090908072000}} - {{#time:U}}) div 86400)}} days {{#expr: trunc ((({{#time:U|20090908072000}} - {{#time:U}}) mod 86400) div 3600)}} hours {{#expr: trunc ((({{#time:U|20090908072000}} - {{#time:U}}) mod 3600) div 60)}} minutes {{#expr: ({{#time:U|20090908072000}} - {{#time:U}}) mod 60}} seconds
. Currently it counts down to 00:00, 25/12/2009 (i.e. one minute after 23:59:59, 24/12/2009), but it can be changed to any date. Its output looks like this:-5560 days -3 hours -19 minutes -31 seconds
. It can't update dynamically because that would require JavaScript (which isn't allowed here) so you have to refresh (F5) the page to update it. Xenon54 / talk / 14:18, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
Ok, but what and how do I edit that?Accdude92 (talk) (sign) 14:23, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
- Change the date. I changed it above to count down to 07:20, 8/9/09. Then when you're done, put the code wherever you want the countdown to show up. Xenon54 / talk / 14:41, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
-4844 days -3 hours -19 minutes -31 seconds. What did I do wrong?Accdude92 (talk) (sign) 17:06, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
- You had the month and day backwards... I fixed it for you. LittleMountain5 17:11, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

That edit to the help desk...
Re your edit to the helpdesk a few hours ago: you need get that oversighted now. (I'm not going to link to it, but you know which one it is.) You have no idea as to the amount of information I dug up about you in the last five minutes. Don't worry, I'm not in a position to do much with it, but there are people who can. This is for your own good. Xenon54 / talk / 20:24, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi!
This is an interesting place. What do you suggest I do here? I was thinking of making a list of what constitutes a "town" and a "city" according to the laws of each state. How would I go about doing that? Doc Quintana (talk) 14:05, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I clicked on the random article thing before. How about this: I add it on as a "definitions" section in the article about towns? I was curious because I live in New Hampshire and here towns are legally different than cities, but in some places they aren't and some places it's a size/urban planning thing (here some of our towns are bigger than some of our cities). I've always been curious about it and i'd like to find out and share what I find. Doc Quintana (talk) 22:31, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Question On A Dispute
Hi there,
You're the only person I know so far, so I was wondering how to resolve a dispute if talking doesn't create a consensus? Going back and forth forever seems counterproductive. Doc Quintana (talk) 15:40, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- The dispute is here. Probably nothing, but i'd like to know the next step just in case. Something feels odd, there were a few reversions and i'd like to avoid rancor if we can't find common ground. Doc Quintana (talk) 17:43, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- The IRC thing sounds like alot of work. Are there any pages on that here? I'll probably find it eventually after poking around, but it'd be nice to save the time. Doc Quintana (talk) 19:19, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Your request for adminship
Hi, I've withdrawn your RfA prematurely per Wikipedia:Not now. Please don't be discouraged; many of our finest administrators have failed their first RfAs. Please take a look at the administrator's reading list and guide to RfA, and consider running some time in the future. Thank you for your work on Wikipedia; I hope you stick around.

I have a question. You stated that you would "remove all users" from Wikipedia. Could you clarify what you mean by this? Triplestop x3 22:00, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

- It is a discussion about deletion of some page. See WP:XFD. Ilyushka88 talk 13:54, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

- The "X" means "any letter here". Articles for deletion is AFD, redirects is RFD, files is FFD, miscellaneous (user pages, etc) is MFD, etc. Collectively, they are referred to as XFD. See Wikipedia:Deletion process. Chzz ► 13:57, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

- No, any user can move a question on a reference desk, but there are guidelines on when it is appropriate to do so. In general, if a question is more appropriate on a different reference desk, the help desk, or any other page, it may be moved to that page. A full description of these guidelines is at Wikipedia:Reference desk/Guidelines#When moving a posting and Wikipedia:Reference desk/Guidelines#When removing or redacting a posting.

Am I allowed to make a sandbox for general chat? i am asking because I would rather ask, then get a warning template.Accdude92 (talk to me!) (sign) 19:59, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
- The phrase "general chat" is not specific enough. Do you want to create a user subpage in which you can chat with other users about things not necessairily having to do with Wikipedia? As you have been told, Wikipedia is not Facebook. So that would be a "no", unless I don't understand your question correctly (which is entirely plausible at this time of day).
- Also, please don't put {{helpme}} as the section title. Doing that breaks the ability to edit the section directly, meaning that any prospective answerer has to click on the main "edit this page" tab - and editing such a long page all at once can cause problems for those of us on older, slower, or non-Windows computers.

{{helpme}}How do I know if an ip is a shared ip?Accdude92 (talk to me!) (sign) 16:27, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
- In short, you can't.
- There are tools on the net to help you try to determine who an IP address is registered to (Reverse DNS lookup), but the results are often inconclusive, as large ranges of addresses are frequently just assigned to a huge ISP, which in reality re-allocates addresses.
- So many IP addresses, these days, are dynamic - ie your address changes when you reconnect.
- That said, as you've probably seen, if we do identify addresses in a specific shared range (such as a school), then we mark the talk page with a template, for example Template:IPEDU.
- Hope that helps a bit; if you have a specific case you wondered about, please ask again. Cheers, Chzz ► 16:37, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Good reading for you
Wikipedia:Don't template the regulars should be read. It is somewhat insulting that you dropped a warning template on my talk page. If you wish to discuss something, let us discuss it openly. --Jayron32 19:54, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
- I know what I typed. It was not a personal attack at all. You asked a question at the reference desk which could clearly have been answered using google. I am just surprised that you did not do so. --Jayron32 20:03, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Templates and Established Editors
Whacking templates on established editors pages is a not a good idea. It tends to piss people off. If you have an issue with someone the best way is to raise the matter with them in a normal, conversational way rather than using boilerplate messages. You might wanna read about not templating the regulars. Crafty (talk) 19:59, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
- Let's keep this conversation here on your talkpage. :) Warning templates are best used on IP editors or new users who are clearly creating problems, like blatant vandalism or snarky personal attacks, copyright violations and the like. Until you really understand what's going on you might wanna lay off templating anyone. Crafty (talk) 20:05, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
By the way, if you want to chat better use IRC than talk page. You can use java if you don't have another client. -- Mentifisto 13:32, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

{{helpme}} Why arnt my access keys working? I have the box unchecked "Disable access keys" in the gadgets section of my prefences.15:18, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
- Which browser do you use? Are you definitely using the correct modifier key? I'm using Firefox 3.5.3, and the access keys work correctly with Alt + Shift. Try looking at Access key#Access in different Browsers. Do access keys fail to work on other sites, or is it just Wikipedia? If everything checks out, the Village Pump may be a better forum for your question. AJCham 15:47, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

{{helpme}} Is there a way that I can make the bot archive my pages faster?Accdude92 (talk to me!) (sign) 14:56, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
- Please be patient. The bot just archived two threads this morning, it should be back later to archive other threads from the same day. Xenon54 / talk / 15:15, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
- I am just curious if I could. its not like Im begging for it to come faster.
- I never said you were begging. The bot only runs once a day, at a "preset hour", so the archiving will happen later tonight or tomorrow. So there's nothing you can do - except wait. Xenon54 / talk / 15:24, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Why isnt hoggle downloading? I downloaded it and all that comes is code.Accdude92 (talk to me!) (sign) 21:02, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- You won't be able to use Huggle. You need to have WP:ROLLBACK to use it. That isn't why it hasn't downloaded correctly, but it might save you wasting some time. \ Backslash Forwardslash / (talk) 21:26, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- (e/c)First, make sure you meet all the technical requirements on this page. If you then click the link which says "Current version (0.9.2)", you should be able to download an executable file. When the download is complete, double-click the file to run it. However, this may all be for nought, since I believe you need the rollback right to use Huggle, which you currently don't appear to have. You can request it at request for permissions, but you may need to show some evidence of vandal-fighting before it is granted. --Kateshortforbob talk 21:27, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
Your edits
Please note this is an encyclopaedia. You need to do something involving content. In just under a year you have made a total of 6 article edits. Please try and contribute something, even if it is simply reverting vandals. Your future rollback request will be related to this, as there is no way someone with no history of reverting will be given rollback.

{{helpme}}When is the aiv backlogged, and when is considered not backlogged?Accdude92 (talk to me!) (sign) 14:50, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Currently the {{adminbacklog}} template is added to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism when there are at least five reports, and the template is removed (technically replaced with the blank {{noadminbacklog}}) when there are two or less reports. This is handled automatically by one of several bots (User:HBC AIV helperbot3, User:HBC AIV helperbot5, User:HBC AIV helperbot7, etc.) using the parameters contained in this comment:
<!-- v2.0.15 RemoveBlocked=On MergeDuplicates=On AutoMark=On FixInstructions=On AutoBacklog=On AddLimit=5 RemoveLimit=2 -->

{{helpme}} I have heard some bots say False Positive? Report it. What does that mean?Accdude92 (talk to me!) (sign) 18:05, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Sometimes the bots interpret an edit as vandalism by mistake. For example, if someone were to add the word ass to an article, a bot cannot interpret the context and may revert it as vandalism, even if it is an innocent reference to a donkey. That is a false positive, and can be reported to help the botmaster consider ways of refining the code. If too many false positives are triggered, the bot is usually deactivated until it can be made more reliable. AJCham 18:10, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Regarding this AIV report, please see my comment over at User talk:Master S P. Would you mind taking another look at the situation to see if your AIV report was actually appropriate? (I also left a message at User talk:Duncan.) Thanks, — Scientizzle 21:20, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

re User:Master S P, 4im warning and report to AIV
I would advise you that I have redacted your warning on the above editors talkpage, and removed the report to AIV. My view is that not only was the edit in good faith, but it was also technically correct. Irrespective of the accuracy, I would comment that WP:AGF requires us to consider whether it is possible that an edit was made in an attempt to improve the encyclopedia, to discuss the issue with the editor when uncertain, to only warn were there is an indication that discussion will not achieve understanding, and to issue the appropriate warning when required - in this circumstance the 4im was not the right template. I further note that you did not respond to comments questioning both the report and the warning, although you may not have been watching the pages. I realise that you are also working to the good of the project, so I hope that you will learn from this episode. LessHeard vanU (talk) 21:27, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Warning
Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Wikipedia talk:Sandbox. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you.
Re this edit and this edit: You have been warned before that this link is inappropriate, except perhaps outside your userspace. Although you have not done it to an article yet, you know the link is inappropriate, and you're blatantly advertising the website. In a nutshell, you're spamming. I honestly think that you are not taking this seriously or don't understand the gravity of the situation. If you were taking this seriously and did understand, you would have stopped by now.
