Why are you reverting my changes? The user who wrote those things have no idea what they are talking about. I'm sorry if this looks like I am the one vandalising, but I am not, as this is my first time using this. I really have to change that article because it is wrong.--Nafslee (talk) 10:58, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

You are right, Cflm001 also made the same mistake. Congratulations for using the phrases 'gay' and 'He Fucked My Father' in a constructive way for the first time in my anti-vandalism career :) Welcome to Wikipedia! Rror (talk) 11:15, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

haha, no worries! Didnt think you'd ever see that did you. Even though it was annoying seeing it reverted constantly, I now know how to use this thing. You are doing a great job monitoring!--Nafslee (talk) 11:22, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

edit

Why? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.165.57.233 (talk) 10:38, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

replaced taxobox image with own

Greetings. Thank you for supplying many nice photos and adding them to appropriate articles. May I suggest, however, that the edit comment "replaced taxobox image with own" may rub some people the wrong way. A better option is to state how the new image is an improvement, such as "replaced taxobox image with one showing whole plant" or "replaced blurry taxobox image with one having better focus." This would be more considerate, and make it seem less like you are simply discarding the work of others. As I said, I do agree that the replacements you are making are improvements, and am merely concerned that your choice of edit comment may give people the wrong idea. Keep up the good work! --EncycloPetey (talk) 21:40, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh. I understand what you mean. I'm certainly not pushing in my pictures for my ego, I thought I'd be honest about the fact that they are my images, so people are more critical. If there are betters ones, good for Wikipedia. The pictures present do deserve an explanation why I think another one is more suitable, guess I would want the same if my images are replaced.

Will be more verbose in the future. Sorry if I offended anyone. --Rror (talk) 22:11, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Electric car edits

Hi, Rror,

Why did you revert the changes I did in the Electric Car section while I was still working on them? Is it an accident? In which case I will revert back. If there is a reason, please let me know on this page.

By the way, I love your photos...

--Jacques de Selliers (talk) 00:36, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, was using WP:HUGGLE for the first time yesterday. Just checked all my edits using it, and you seem to be the only 'victim'. Must have pressed the wrong button ;) Keep your contributions coming! --Rror (talk) 09:00, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Reports to WP:AIV

Hiya. Thanks for your help countering vandalism. Please note however, that IP's making just one or two bad edits shouldn't be reported to WP:AIV. Administrators expect to see a patern of persistent vandalism, that's going on at the time of the report. Remember that your warning may stop any further counter productive edits, so it's only fair to see what happens before reporting. Thanks! Pedro :  Chat  08:46, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Reporting to WP:AIV is done automatically by WP:HUGGLE. I assume(ed) the mechanism behind it to be reasonable, and many wikipedians are using it. You should talk to the developer of Huggle about AIV reporting. --Rror (talk) 08:53, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Really? Huggle reports automatically even with one bad edit? That's crazy. Okay, I'll drop User:Gurch a note. Pedro :  Chat  09:01, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure I can follow. Just checked the last 7 IPs that Huggle reported for me, and all of them had tons of warnings on their talk pages... --Rror (talk) 09:09, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Just be carefull

Hi, im not trying to be critical just a general note. When reverting vandalism, make sure that it is definatly vandalism. Just because a person removes a large ammount of text from a page doesn't constitute vandalism, just make sure you check it. Im particulary talking about Kofi Annan where the ip-user removed unverifable information about his name, and some other stuff about the pronounciation of the name. The question you need to ask yourself is 'is the person definatley purposly trying to cause disruption?' and in this case i would say its possible but its also possible that his edit is done in Good faith. Always try to give the benefit of the doubt. If you really disagreed with the edit, you could have reverted it, but you would need to explain why, and not tag it as vandalism.

It might be usefull just to read over Wikipedia:Assume good faith and WP:VANDAL. This isnt criticisim im just letting you know, so you know for next time. Dont take it the wrong way. When i started learning about vandalism and policy i wish someone helped me along a bit. If you need any help at all drop me a message on my talk page. Cheers Printer222 (talk) 10:29, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

The removal of a complete section from an IP user without giving a reason seemed suspicious (often done by vandals). Left a note on user page. Rror (talk) 10:46, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Yes it is suspicious, so you should investigate it, but if it is slightly possible that the person removed it in good faith, i personally wouldn't delete it. On the other side of the page, if the person had a history of removing large ammounts of text and has been warned, then this would sugest that the editor is acting in bad faith, and you would delete it. It's just some friendly advice really. If you choose not to follow it, its up to you. Printer222 (talk) 11:00, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Hey!!!

Just a quick note, if you find someone, either a new editor or an IP address that has vandalized a page, please place a warning template on his/her/it's talk page. This assists in notifying the user of his/her actions, and also assists other editors in notifying the editor as well, so we can all work together a little more smoothly. If you have any questions, ping my talk page Thanks!! Dusti^{complain/compliment} 13:02, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Hiya Rror. I'm just curious as to why you decided to revert your own edit, here? The edit you originally reverted was clearly vandalism. Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 09:28, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Interesting. Did not intend to undo my edit - probably hit the revert button twice by accident in WP:HUGGLE. Thanks for spotting that. Rror (talk) 09:33, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Aaah... I've never used Huggle before. Is "Undoing own edit" an automatic edit summary given by the tool, then? Thanks for the explanation, I was originally a slight bit confused. :) Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 09:35, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Yep, edit summaries are generated automatically. Rror (talk) 09:38, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Your user page!

Hi! I've been watching some of your recent contributes to stopping vandalism. And your doing a fantastic job.

Though you are preventing vandalism, some people aren't satistfyed with your contributes. And are even willing to vandalise your user page at any risk. If you don't wan't your user page vandalised you may wan't to consider getting your user page locked. Once it is locked it will be safe from unwanted vandalism done by random IP addresses. You can request a page lock here,

And please keep contributing to wikipedia by helping us put an end to vandalism. Thanks! Tedmund (talk) 10:47, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Real Madrid Criticism Section

Hey Rror,

I'm new to this wikipedia editing thing so I may have jumped the gun by removing the section. I did lodge my complaint in the discussion page, as did two other users, and felt I had enough support and it was warning enough to go ahead with the edit. I still think the section needs to be removed, though. I think it presents an obvious bias against Real Madrid and I don't think the article should be a collection of recent headlines. Cheers boss! Gatienza (talk) 10:32, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Gatienza. I was patrolling the recent changes and the removal of a section without and explanation always looks suspicious. But it seems the removal has been discussed on the talk page and gained support. Please always provide an edit summary (for example: removing section as discussed on talk page), so it's easier to see that your edit is constructive. Rror (talk) 11:02, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

He-Man Page

Dude, my edits are the truth. I provided a reference. In issue #47 of DC Presents, Superman is sucked into Eternia (the He-Man universe) and goes galevanting about with He-Man. In issue #48, a brief biography of He-Man or Prince Adam is given and when asked of his mother's whereabouts he says "I don't know, probably on Mars selling astro turf"

2006 Lebanon War casuality figures

Hello. I saw that you reverted my edits on 2006 Lebanon War. This was not vandalism, and I did not realize that this what a controversial issue, nor do I intend to become involved in it. Usually, I edit spelling, grammatical, and misusage whenever I see them. Including civilians treated for shock and anxiety in casualty figures is simply incorrect. These people are generally not considered casualties in the civilian sense of word. If they were soldiers, I believe they could be counted as casualties. These assertions are also in agreement with casualty. After looking at the most recent talk page, it seems that there is not a consensus. Seeing as how there aren't figures like this listed in any other wars/battles that I have looked at, I believe I am right in thinking they are irrelevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.111.140.66 (talk • contribs)

Hi. I did not revert your edits - my revert was on complete nonsense from the IP 78.148.132.85 ([3]).

Hi Hubert101010. The problem is that I can not simply take you word for it. Wikipedia has a policy for that: WP:OR. Furthermore, is this information encyclopedic and really notable (WP:N)? Welcome to Wikipedia and keep contributing. Rror (talk) 12:35, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Lily Allen

When I loaded Wikipedia today, there was a bar at the top that said the following:

Welcome to Wikipedia. The project's content policies require that all articles be written from a neutral point of view, and not introduce bias or give undue weight to viewpoints. Please bear this in mind when making edits such as your recent edit to Lily Allen. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. Rror (talk) 14:05, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

I rarely edit anything - either due to a lack of knowledge or the inability to find a mistake - so I wasn't sure what this message was regarding. I was quite confused to find that my changes were construed as having been written from a biased point of view. I thought that it would be proper to use the word "than", since that's what the author intended, despite having typed "then". Also, I thought it was juvenile to use the word "sucks" in an encyclopedia. Is "is anything but great" inappropriate? Also, I'd seen "trainwreck" quite a few times in the article, and once as "train wreck". I made it consistent by removing the space. Oh, I also added a comma where I thought proper English grammar would mandate one.

When looking at the edits, I was pleased to see that Katharineamy reverted back to my edit, noting "the last version was better".

I'm sure you have a lot of work, monitoring the changes that people make. I don't doubt that a lot of them have malicous intent. I have read much of your "User talk:Rror" section, and I can see that you're well known for working quickly. After seeing the seemingly quick revert you did to the Lily Allen page after my edit, I think I'd like to offer a suggestion. With all due respect, slow down and think about what you're doing before you do it. Even though the Lily Allen article was accurate before my edit, I felt that it wasn't professional. I see a general lack of regard for spelling, grammar, and etiquette in today's society. Really, that's all that my changes dealt with.

So please tell me, how was my edit not from a neutral point of view? How did I introduce bias or give undue weight to viewpoints?

I will certainly read the introduction to editing as you have suggested, but God help us all if that article says that spelling and grammer corrections are prohibited.

Hi Neffje. You are right, sometimes I am too fast. In this case I saw that the article has been vandalized 3 times within the last 15 minutes and someone used the phrases 'is anything but great' and 'trainwreck' - but I missed that those were already there. Happens a lot that someone is introducing personal bias/love or hate for a musician this way, but of course it was completely wrong to warn you in this case. Sorry. I'm only human and averaged over 10,000 edits my error rate is not so bad...

The text on your talk page is from a predefined template and should be targeted against 'the bad guys', not newcomers like you (WP:DONTBITE). So in short: it's all my fault and your edit makes perfect sense. Rror (talk) 14:49, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello Rror, I noticed that you use HG for removing vandalism, I am quite new to Hg, and am not quite familiar with the setup.

If you could just sedn me in the right direction or give me some advice, that would be greatly appreciated. Touch Of Light (talk) 20:17, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Not to my knowledge. I think WP:Lupin uses a list of badwords, but haven't used this tool yet. I also thought about that recently, could come in handy. You could propose it on the Huggle page... Rror (talk) 20:22, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Brian Schmitz

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Brian Schmitz, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Vandalism?

How does this warrant a revert+warn? At most you should have reinserted the maintenance tags and left a note to the user to explain why they shouldn't be removed. --Closedmouth (talk) 12:56, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

I used Template:Uw-delete1 (not Template:Uw-vandalism1) which requests: "When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary". What's wrong with that? OK, I could have used the more specific Template:Uw-tdel1 manually... Rror (talk) 13:26, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Continuing the theme, you reverted back the text on Abdulla Daoud and warned the IP removing it [5] and [6]. As the text on that page is somewhere between complete garbage and an attack page "He has been awarded the highest honour in Doucheness by MTV" - I would have said the IP was trying to be helpful and at most should have got a note requesting edit summaries, or pointing them towards deletion tags. -Hunting dog (talk) 06:59, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

If you look at the diff you will see that I used Template:uw-huggledelete2, which usually results in "Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary". Not sure why the IP got "constitutes vandalism". Rror (talk) 08:37, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for taking care of the article! There is a system in place to deal with vandalism: WP:VANDAL. Basically a vandal is warned 4 times (there are templates for doing that) per month before he will be blocked, which can be requested here: WP:AIV.

If an article is heavily vandalized, temporary semi-protection can be requested here WP:RPP, but the occasional vandalism like on Al Ain English Speaking School is 'normal' so to say. Blocking of users and page protection can only be done by admins - I'm not one, but everyone can apply to become one. Happy editing. Rror (talk) 20:39, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, you've allready got a half dozen or so of the anti-vandalism Barnstars, so I figured I'd award you this one instead. Keep up the great work; I can't count the number of times you've beaten me to the revert punch today. Nutiketaiel (talk) 14:19, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

It seems you are not using WP:HUGGLE, so the 'competition' is not quite fair. Huggle is doing most of the work for me, but thank you for the barnstar none the less! Rror (talk) 14:25, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Fair or not, you are still doing an excellent job and are deserving of the award. Just because I'm reverting vandalism the old fashioned way (like my father before me, and his father before him, back to the times of Ancient Rome) doesn't diminish what a great job you're doing.

Re:revenge is a dish best served cold

You're very welcome. I just got bored with my homework and started using Huggle :) leujohn ^{(talk, contribs)} 12:17, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
