Do you have ANY problem with how much you use Huggle? Why every day? Take this as something to respond to. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.25.243.248 (talk) 01:18, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- I don't use huggle every day. Tiderolls 01:20, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- TR, note I subscribe to WP:DENY & WP:DFTT. --Dave ♠♣♥♦1185♪♫™ 01:21, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- As do I, Dave. I've committed to respond here and since the request was polite I decided to respond. I think we are of the same mind that the possibility that this user is disingenuous is very high. If I get a real sense of being trolled WP:DENY is close at hand. If I've misinterpreted your intent please let me know. See ya 'round Tiderolls 01:25, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- Nope, not trolling. Just two feelings: curious and misunderstood. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.25.243.248 (talk) 01:29, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Would you mind restoring the PROD tag you removed? There is nothing inherently notable about middle schools. 76.102.12.35 (talk) 01:57, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Vandalism: Repeated Deletions of WCLX History By Abusive Contributor 'PeterTripp' and Now By Wikipedia
It's interesting that you backed out my "unsourced" changes when the entire existing article on WCLX is unsourced. Is this just because I haven't bothered to register an account? Your contributor "PeterTripp" is attempting to control the history of this station because he has an infantile dispute with the former operators of the station. If my registering with Wikipedia increases my credibility, I shall do so, but I don't condone the infantile actions of 'PeterTripp', and neither should you. If you only want sourced content in this article, then you should delete this entire article. I am resubmitting my edits, pending your direction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.20.163.254 (talk) 18:47, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- The entire existing article is not unsourced. I have opinions regarding Petertripp's editing as well as the users that insist on using the article as a battleground. Please, make whatever edits you feel are necessary. I will not engage in an edit war to prove a point, but your edits will be subject to the scrutiny of all editors and will be subject to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Regards Tiderolls 19:40, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- Here we go again. I'll take the opportunity now to point out that User:Petertripp was taken to the conflict of interest noticeboard, didn't respond to his relevant thread, and hasn't made a controversial edit since. The article as it stands is, for the most part, referenced by independent third-party sources. It is of a neutral tone for the first time in its history. I provided sources for the parts of the article I could find references for and deleted the rest; this was reverted by Petertripp, but Tide restored it after the aforementioned COI had settled down. Most recently it has been changed by another completely uninvolved editor who - and excuse me for my frank tone here - removed much of the POV and irrelevant detail that your edit brought. If you have any specific concerns about the article as it stands, and can back them up with references, then have at it; if your only concern with the article is that it doesn't pander to your point of view, then I think we're done here. This back-and-forth POV edit-warring has gone on long enough. SMC (talk) 08:26, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
Dear Mister Rolls
I believe you have made a mistake on my Josh Peck edit. Those lines that I put into the interview were the raw, unedited feeling of the Mister Peck we all know and love. Sometimes you just have to infer. Not everything needs to be typed out. Respectfully yours, Cinnamon Rolls —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.15.51.179 (talk) 23:52, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

- You can find that information in the article. Or, by following the links in any of the warnings on your user talk. Tiderolls 17:20, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- Is this some kind of dumb meme we're seeing? DMacks (talk) 17:34, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

Many Thanks
Your recent revert cited unsourced content in the edit summary. I have therefore began to systematically remove all such content from the same article. You have shown me the light. Thank You. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.86.148.6 (talk) 18:51, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

Thank You
I didn't know that. But I do know that editors rely on being able to see these messages if they are warning them further. Most editors wil not be aware of someone's warnings and will contunue to give them first warnings if they can't see them. Thank you for the info though. KezianAvenger™ 00:32, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
AfD nomination of List of fatal diseases
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of fatal diseases. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fatal diseases. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:04, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

You made a mistake.
One of Rob Halford nicknames is Master of the Dark Hole. Your making a mistake. I happen to be a well known member of a Metal forum. I can easily outmatch you in Metal faqs. Please change it back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.31.137.73 (talk) 05:29, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Why did you reverted this [1]??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.25.97.196 (talk) 05:44, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
- The article is under a 4chan attack and your edit got zapped by mistake. Looking at it I don't see where it's necessary, but if you put it back I won't revert. Apologies Tiderolls 05:46, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
- God, 4chan again? Good thing I'm off to bed. I wish you were an admin already; no one is faster on the trigger, and mostly you're right. I'm fine, thanks--yourself? My skater got gold on the 5000m so I'm pretty pleased. Roll Tide! Drmies (talk) 05:50, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
- Funny that, a friend linked the 4chan thread to me. I've requested sprotection. They've got a bunch more articles in the works though. SMC (talk) 05:51, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
You won't revert? Then what hapenned? [2] You know what? forget it. Now the article is protected and i can't edit it. You know, i tried to improve wikipedia, but i only see atacks from you to my editions. Thanks anyway...--190.25.97.196 (talk) 05:52, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Luge - I'm twelve. What is this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.67.130.49 (talk) 05:49, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Kind sir, you have misinterpreted what vandilism is. Ahem, "edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism" from the vandalism page. There should be no issue as far as I do not discredit the Portal article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mastado (talk • contribs) 00:36, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
- Without doubt I am capable of error. However, I don't think I am in this instance. I know the difference between a content dispute and vandalism. Your current edit to this page may well stand. Other editors will decide that outcome. If you decide to to add nonsensical content to this or any article, I will revert you. Thanks for your polite message. Tiderolls 00:45, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

I am messaging you in regards to your reverts to my edit on the characters of Half-Life. The character "Dog" is actually spelled as "D0G" as per the creator's designation. My edit was not vandalism; merely a simple correction. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me.Mastado (talk) 02:32, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- Everything I've found says the spelling you provide is occasionally used. However, I did not revert you because I have an opinion aboout the article's content; I reverted your edit because you didn't include an edit summary and because you have a history of adding nonsense to articles. Dog, D0g...whatever... Tiderolls 03:16, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
Awesome work!
Wow, I was undoing vandalism on Attila the Hun, and all of a sudden, you come out of nowhere, and undo it, as well as give the person a warning faster than I could! Nice work! Brambleclawx 00:06, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Question
Why do you allow them to remove my relevant information?
I added a link to a site that is not even mine, warning users of PayPal.
This is more than useful.
You just want everyone to keep using PayPal, so you remove it. I am sure you work for PayPal.
- Perhaps you might engage the editors without attacking them and making accusations. That's just a suggestion...of course you can ignore it. Your choice. Regards Tiderolls 01:49, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Why? read ASAP
Why do people get warnings? Also, what if you edit the page with correct information, do you get a warning too? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.88.214.33 (talk) 01:50, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
- People get warnings when they vandalize pages, and if you edit a page with the correct information, you won't get a warning. December21st2012Freak Talk to me at 01:53, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
- To add to 12/21/12Freak's correct answer above. Wikipedia has policies and guidelines; violating those will get one warnings. If you read Wikipedia:Verifiability you will find that to be "correct" is not sufficient. You must include reliable sources and it's optimum to gain a consensus for one's edits as well. I hope that helps. Regards Tiderolls 01:56, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Why? read ASAP
I think that it is unfair for people to get warnings. I recently just added something to a page that was useful and correct and someone removed it. :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.88.214.33 (talk) 02:08, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
- Your edit was vandalism, as it added something unrelated to the article. Please read Wikipedia:Vandalism to find out what vandalism is and all the types of vandalism. December21st2012Freak Talk to me at 02:22, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

Sorry Tide rolls. I only transferred the content of D' Lucky Ones to D'Lucky Ones. I did it because the title of the article is opposite to its content.--FDJoshua22 (talk) 04:02, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

I haven't been on Wikipedia at all recently other than to check out reviews for the new Joanna Newsom album. The only other person who uses this computer is my younger brother and I'm pretty sure he wasn't here to do it.

Just a quick note
When you warned this guy for vandalism, you accidentally named the section "March 2110". Just so you know. =) Brambleclawx 00:52, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
- I didn't see it in the diff I looked at. No biggie, though; Huggle leaves the warnings automatically. See ya 'round Tiderolls 01:03, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
- Never mind, I checked the history, and the guy was actually vandalising his own talk by changing the date. I was pretty sure you used Huggle, and I was just surprised to see what looked like a mistake by Huggle, but obviously wasn't. Brambleclawx 01:27, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
- I've seen very strange edits while using Huggle, so you never know. Please let me know if you see anything that raises your suspicions. It's an automated tool and it's not infallible. Not to mention operator error :) Tiderolls 01:29, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

- I cannot predict the actions of other editors (or bots). Wikipedia is not a forum for sensationalism. If the subject is notable due to some controversy that would be different. Also, I have no idea whether the source you cite would be considered reliable by Wikipedia standards. Regards Tiderolls 00:50, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for the quick response. Well the particular event did somewhat of a buzz in greek media, which why I thought its worth mentioning. About the source, its the company that released the dvd so I would guess its pretty reliable. Finally if I could ask how I can avoid automatic reverses by bots.

- If you would engage other editors on the article talk page or contact knowledgable editors at the biography project, you could gather input on the weight of the specific incident as it applies to the person's bio. Please understand that biographies of living persons are subject to rigid and strictly enforced rules for obvious reasons. As to avoiding bots, I can offer little advice as I am no expert in their operation. I do appreciate your patient and polite messages and hope that I have not adversely influenced your experience on Wikipedia. Thanks Tiderolls 01:05, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

The topic "Eh"
The reason for my edit of this article is that the article itself is not true. I'm not sure if you read my whole edit, but I will fully admit to making it slightly synical. This article does not depict the truth at all and the references given are mockeries and intend for comedic purposes. This is a Stereotyped article and should not even be allowed on Wikipedia at all, regardless of the cause. It is a mockery of Canadians and other Nationalities. Simply the only thing that this article should state about any English speaking nationality is that the interpeted word "eh" is actually the word "hey" and that the pronounciation of the "H" is muffled in with the rest of the word. My personal request is that this whole article either be removed from Wikipedia as it has no bearing, or simply changed to include that "eh" is simply "hey." And is often used to illicit a response from another person in the conversation. Thank you. MrRipperKing (talk) 04:22, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Page protection
Hi, Tide Rolls. An editor has requested to move protect your userpage and talk page after the page move vandalism yesterday. It's your page, so would you like it to be indefinitely move protected, or would you rather leave it as it is? ≈ Chamal talk ¤ 01:33, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, Chamal. Thanks for the concern. I don't think one incident would warrant protection. However, if you believe I'm overlooking factors that would indicate protection is necessary I'd be interested in hearing more. Feel free to e-mail me if there are beansy concerns. Thanks Tiderolls 05:48, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Hello
Hi,excuse me,would you happen to be the person who is taking down my Choc-A-Boxx article?
If so,I can inform you,all information on that page is real information. I got some old papers and stuff from the WEA Records company about Choc-A-Boxx,and some other info from other websites,so I do know that all information is 100% true. Please,do not remove my article. I only write true articles,I would never write a fake.
If it isn't you,but you may know who is deleting it,please stop the deletation. I will do my best to inprove that article,the reason you can't find much on them is because they weren't out for long and didn't release much outside of Europe.

- I reverted this edit because it contained commentary that was more appropriate for a talk page, not the article's mainspace. In reverting I replaced a CSD tag that you had removed. I really don't have an opinion on the article (yet), but you are not to remove the CSD tags. An administrator will examine the circumstances and respond. If you want your article to avoid deletion I would advise you to go to the article's talk page and make your case for retention. Thanks Tiderolls 01:57, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Opinion
I entirely disagree, how is it that he is allowed to have a page in an encyclopedia talking about himself contributing nothing. In fact I think it is entirely wrong that wikipedia takes this stance. I have seen articles deleted left and right and I think you guys need to really look in the mirror. My edit was not a mistake, it was feedback on the absurdity of wikipedia's policy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.186.178.171 (talk) 23:59, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
- I'm gonna assume for one post that you're not trolling and attempt to explain your error. You appear to be "protesting" against some "wrong" or "injustice". Protests are not really recognized on Wikipedia. Different opinions are encouraged and open discourse is valued. However, railing against wrongs (real or percieved) is not looked upon with much favor. So, you're kind of wasting your time. It's your time to waste, of course, but the wasting of volunteers' time is very bad form. I would advise you to find another direction in which to aim your energies or your time here will be short and very unfullfilling. Entirely your call. Thanks for your polite message.

I am a student of Oak Hill High School, in Wales, Maine, and I would like to attest to the recent edits you have reverted.

We also do have summer classes entitled "Trash Picking" (A play on words from the Raider mascot) "Overachieving" (Becoming a better student) and also "Sitting" (Sitting and Care 101, a life skills class based around babysitting.)

(formatting, citations that need to be added or added properly, broken image names, etc.). That's where learning the core policies comes into play. You will need to be able to recognize problems and be able to address them without violating Wikipedia's standards yourself. Regards Tiderolls 19:45, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, I've actually been reading up on policies in the context of one of the more controversial subject areas at Wikipedia, where I've commented but lack the technical expertise to edit. So happens I've started looking at the recent changes but usually you Hugglers get there before me! I found the vandalism on TriBeCa because that's already on my watchlist. But I think I may get one of the other tools I read about that don't require rollback rights. I'll let you know how it goes. ScottyBerg (talk) 21:28, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Recent edits to Oak Hill High School
I, along with my fellow colleague, attest you reverting our recent edits. Do you even have any affiliation with Oak Hill? Because if you did, you would know that there are in fact students hailing from our lunar satalite, the moon. Also, for an article about Oak Hill, I felt it lacked the school's name in many sentences, so simply tried to inform people that all of these activities were associated with Oak Hill, and not another school in the area. I am simply trying to enhance the school's image, and you are seriously impeding my ability to do so. Next time you delete someone else's work, do some research first. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.253.8.55 (talk) 02:19, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
i am sorry
I am sorry, i did not intend to do anything wrong. Is this an acceptable update for the Caesar and Hell MI sites?
In 2005 Mike Hickey Owner of The Damsite Inn a bar in Hell Michigan, created a Bottled Bloody Caesar Mixer. He named it Smitty's Bloody Caesar From Hell Michigan. Smitty Sauces & Seasonings From Hell Michigan It is still available today and well known as one of the best mixes around. Smitty's has all of the elements of the great flavors you expect to taste in a Bloody Caesar with a mildly spicy taste. The Caesar Cocktail is still the #1 drink of choice in Canada. It is becoming Quite popular in the US also.
Thank you, Andrea--Smittysauces (talk) 02:52, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
- User:Barek left a link on your talk page explaining the reason your content was being reverted. You really need to follow this link and read the policy. The fact that you continued to add the content after being warned is disruptive. If you feel that your content does not go against policy, please contact other editors on the talk pages of the articles or on the policy's talk page. Thanks for your polite message.

Headphones
I wish to defend my deletion of the claim that Headphones are also called earphones. This is not the case; in the music world it is very well established that earphones and headphones are very different music listening devices and I simply wished to correct a statement that suggested otherwise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.183.128.140 (talk) 02:00, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
- If "it is very well established" then you should not have any trouble providing reliable sources for this position and citing them properly. However, the reason I reverted your edits was due to the fact that the edits were marring the layout of the article and appeared vandalistic. I had no major issue with the content of your edits. Having listened to your reasoning I see no actual need for the content to be added but I will not edit war to keep the content out of the article. Please understand that your edits are visible to all editors and are subject to alteration and deletion. Thanks for your polite message. Tiderolls 02:08, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
burton
have u ever been to burton statues if you had you would probably realise that my edit was infact correct as it is riddled with gangs stabbing each other. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.138.163.79 (talk) 02:20, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

CSD
Are you sure about Homo swarm? It's certainly a fertile mine of double entendre, but Dike swarm is perfectly fine, and the term "homologous" is valid. It should be renamed using the correct term and maybe merged, and Google shows no hits, but I wouldn't reject it out of hand as a hoax, despite the nomenclature. Needs an actual source, obviously.Acroterion (talk) 02:37, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry to answer so late...real life concerns. I wasn't 100% sure when I tagged the article, but I was basing my action on the user's citation. Their link did not reference "homo" at all....and the "homologous" was given as an alternative. Dike swarm has existed since 2008 with no mention of a "homologous" and this was the user's very first edit. I will plead a mea culpa to acting quickly, but I was sure enough to pull the trigger. I hope this answers your concerns. See ya 'round Tiderolls 04:20, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- I now see that the deletion was handled as a "test" rather than a "hoax". Maybe my tag was a bit harsh and I would offer a sincere apology to the article creator if a source surfaces. If the creator had come here I would've certainly entertained any discussion they offered. Regards Tiderolls 04:45, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- I think somebody was having a little geological fun with us - I imagine a dike swarm can be homologous, and I imagine there's a very old joke about it all. If anybody wants to add sourced content concerning homologous dike swarms to dike swarm, they can do so. We don't have a pun tag, so G3 tends to be the default. No problems, I was puled too.

Greetings / Do you use Twinkle?
Hello! Well, first of all, it's nice to see you again. One of the comments that I have to make is all in an e-mail that I will zap to you soon. Second, I was just wondering if you were ever interested in using WP:TWINKLE. It's a gadget similar to Huggle that a lot of users (and rollbackers) use, including myself. There is the tasks of reverting vandalism & reporting it, tagging new pages for CSD, reporting users, etc. Since you are a bit notable for your Huggleness, I was wondering if you would give it a try! :-) Have a good night.
Side note -- Twinkle doesn't work on Internet Explorer. It will function on Firefox, Safari, and other browsers. Schfifty3 03:55, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker)Huggle is actually faster than twinkle, I used to have twinkle in July/August, 2009 but I got the rollback right later in August which is when I started using huggle. December21st2012Freak Talk to me at 04:05, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- Good to see you as well, Schfifty. I may give TW a try some day, but it will mean a browser download for me as I use IE. I've been using HG so long that I am used to its quirks and jerks. Sometimes it's best to choose the devil one knows :) Thanks for the feedback 12/21/12Freak...good info. Tiderolls 04:29, 27 March 2010 (UTC) I didn't know there was a template for talk-page-stalking...lol
- Yeah, there's always the necessary time to wait before trying something new. On the subject of browsers, I would personally prefer to use Firefox b.c. it has nifty add-ons and no slow tab loading. :) Schfifty3 04:44, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- Oh BTW, did you receive that email I sent? Schfifty3 04:46, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- Yes....read and answered. Tiderolls 05:08, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
You provided me with multiple links to the sandbox.
Excuse me, but why did you direct me to the sandbox?
My edits were clearly not test edits, so your linking me to the sandbox was an incorrect and inappropriate course of action.
If you do not like my edits, that's fine. But I am letting you know that linking to the sandbox is a wholly incorrect action, because I am clearly not trying to make test edits.
Linking to the sandbox may cause great amusement and a few chuckles for yourself and others, but it is an ad hominem attack and it is worthless to proceedings.
If the edits were not genuine and were vandalism, that would also be an incorrect time to link the person to the sandbox.
You may consider the edits so ridiculous that you cannot help but want to offend them. If so, I suggest you condemn the edits in an honest way and try to keep an open mind about how it may be you yourself and perhaps others who have it all wrong.
So I am making a request to not link genuine edits to the sandbox again, even though many other people do it when they see edits they greatly dislike. Thanks for your consideration. 93.95.81.1 (talk) 16:05, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- I kind of see the point you are attempting to make. Unfortunately, this is the incorrect forum to address your !issue. As I do not have any real hope that your position will gain traction, I will not waste your time by directing you to more appropriate venues. I will offer that the word choice you take issue with is most likely rooted in the assumption of good faith and I would wager that this fact is already known to you. Thanks for your polite message.

New user here
Hi. I am new to Wikipedia, so please do not flame me. Were my websites deemed unnecessary? I believe a robot undid my edits. - thomas123wooden123 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomas123wooden123 (talk • contribs) 22:07, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- This is not "flame", it is a templated information notice. I left that message on your talk page after reverting this edit. Honestly, I have no opinion on the link you added to that article; the multiple misspellings you introduced distracted me from reading the complete edit. That's the risk one runs when adding gibberish to articles. It may not have been your intent to add gibberish and that's the reason the message I left references "unconstructive". I hope this answers your concerns. Regards Tiderolls 23:04, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
Please block...
I see that you have warned BillyBlazes. He is going to vandalizm and I want you to block him so we can protect Wikipedia. BjörnBergman 19:40, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
- I agree that this user is not here to be constructive. I am not, however, an administrator so I cannot block the user. In addition there is a process that must be followed before a block can be executed. Not to worry, though, this user is making it plain that they will be blocked soon. Thanks for your concern.
