before the question. Again, welcome! Studerby (talk) 19:27, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Glad to see you stuck around
I see you've hung around after that issue of interest has resolved itself. Wikipedia always needs more editors, especially those that can keep cool, follow process, and edit it good faith when the conflict gets heated. Studerby (talk) 19:27, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks! I am feeling my way and overwhelmed when looking into the larger realm of articles. I was particularly disappointed in the article on Technology Integration (my forté). In looking at the edits and content, I think it probably ought to just be a section under Instructional Technology. I'm going slow, though. Thanks again (and I'm not sure if I reply to you here or not. On your talk page it would be out of context... oh well. I'll figure it out!Lacbolg (talk) 20:07, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Reminder to warn vandals after you revert their edits...
Hi Wikipelli, I wanted to thank you for undoing vandalism on articles. While it isn't absolutely necessary, could you also please warn the vandal on their talk page with the related vandalism reversion templates (personally I use {{uw-vandalism1}}
through {{uw-vandalism4}}
). What this does is (1) give the user a warning that their behavior is undesirable and (2) gives administrators evidence that the user has been sufficiently warned that they could be blocked for creating vandalism.
If you knew all this and purposely weren't using those templates then I apologize. You look new enough that you might not know the entire process for vandalism reversion.
Thanks again for the tip! Syrthiss (talk) 12:29, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you! (I'm new enough that I don't know where to respond, really. Here or on *your* talk page.. ? )... I've been getting my feet wet (obviously) checking recent changes and only those of IP users (until I feel confident enough to undo logged in editors!). I am happy to use the warning template but haven't yet only because the undos have been on IP users that generally do not have talk pages. Should I go ahead and use it anyway?Wikipelli (talk) 12:36, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
- Here is fine (so I've reverted you). Just wanted you to see that here is the right place to respond (at least to me ;), some other editors prefer you reply at their talk pages... usually they'll have a note or something on their talk page that indicates whichever they prefer). Yep, if they don't have anything on their talk page feel free to create that page and place the warnings. Thanks!
- Will do! Thanks again!Wikipelli (talk) 12:46, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hey Wikipelli, as a lead on from this: firstly, thank you very much for your greatly needed help in the recent changes, when warning users who's edits you have reverted please add subst: in front of the template, for instance {{subst:uw-vandalism1}}See Wikipedia:Substitutionfor more information about this, or feel free to ask me about it. Again, thank you very much, kind regards, SpitfireTally-ho! 22:35, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

- Thanks! Will do... learning all the time.. :) Wikipelli (talk) 22:37, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks again... I notice that several of those who clean up vandalism include warnings such as these but they refer specifically to the page and even the act (profanity, blanking, etc). Is that something that is contained in another template? A function of a bot? I like the specificity. Wikipelli (talk) 22:48, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:WARN lists all the various warning templates that can be used, most of them work on the same basis as {{uw-vandalism1}}, in that they go up in levels from 1 to 4,SpitfireTally-ho! 22:57, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

Rollback
Apparently he doesn't like you now. Apparently, he didn't notice that I reverted 2/3 of his edits, so you get to be vandalized. :) Hopefully, an admin will block him now. Hi878 (talk) 04:42, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
- And he was blocked, right as I said that. :) Hi878 (talk) 04:43, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Huggle
You use Huggle? Does that mean you are using some form of Wine, just so that you can run a Windows program??? I would expect more from an iMac user. :) Use Twinkle, orWikiGuard, don't go over to the dark side! Or should I say, you must leave the dark side, since you seem to already be there. :) Hi878 (talk) 05:01, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
- :) Yeah, I'm on the dark side with my work laptop. I half-heartedly tried to get Wine working on my iMac, but it didn't go anywhere. I used Twinkle until I got rollback rights to use Huggle. I only go over to the 'dark side' late at night so no-one knows. Shhhhhh But I'm always looking to try new things... Wikipelli Talk 05:04, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
- Unbelievable... Unlike you, I am a devoted Mac addict, so I would never do that. Even when I have to use a PC, I don't use Huggle (or any other PC-only program, for that matter), I go to all the trouble of installing Safari so that Twinkle works. And if I can't do that, I just undo vandalism the old-fashioned way. :) Hi878 (talk) 05:07, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
- I almost feel guilty now. :) I work in a PC world, unfortunately, and like the speed of Huggle. BTW, I like Chrome better than Safari now for just about everything... I hate that I prefer it, though, if that helps. ;) Wikipelli Talk 05:09, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
- Almost helps. :) All biases aside, I really think Chrome looks ugly. Almost everything else Google has made is perfect, in my opinion, but Chrome just... Is ugly. Even if it supposedly is way faster, or something like that, I prefer a browser that looks nicer to one that is uglier, but a little faster. Which is why I hate Firefox, it's ugly and slow. :) Hi878 (talk) 05:12, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

User talk:95.149.50.162
I believe your warning on the above page was inappropriate - the IP editor's contributions were clearly in good faith and not vandalism. DuncanHill (talk) 12:53, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks... I'll check it now. The phrasing on the link, "Visit their website" seemed out of place. Perhaps I was too quick. Thanks again. Wikipelli Talk 12:59, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
- The IP editor is also learning, and guidance could help them. Rollback should only be used on blatant vandalism, which the edits were not. An undo, with an informative edit summary, and a personalised note with guidance on the editor's talk page would have been more appropriate.DuncanHill (talk) 13:09, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Level 1
Hey Wikipelli, thanks for your help in fighting vandalism. Just a note: you don't have to stick to level 1 if a user hasn't been warned in a while. The IP that was butchering Terracotta Army, you could have given them a 2 or even 3 warning: there is a history of vandalism there, and you reverted no fewer than four vandal edits by them. It's not like one has to start with level 1 and then work up one step at the time--sometimes 4im is appropriate, sometimes a level 3 is a good place to begin, dependent on history and the nature of the edit. All the best, Drmies (talk) 03:18, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks! Using (and getting used to) Huggle and learning to read the icons to see previous warnings and previous contribs (vandal and otherwise) from IPs... I'll get better at it. :) thanks again! WikipelliTalk 03:20, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not familiar with Huggle--I installed it once but it was too complicate. I use Twinkle, and occasionally I have another glance at Wikipedia:UTM#Warnings_and_notices to remind me of what's what. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 03:24, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

I've EC'd with you a few times so I'll let you clean it up - but the article right now is essentially doubled up. 7 03:51, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

I've found a way to make you stop using PC-only programs! Igloo is a pretty new vandal-fighting tool, but I've been using it for a little while now, and it works amazingly.

Templates removed because they were placed there maliciously or erroneously.
I apologize for making the edit to the Globcal page, I know one of the students that interns with them, I am a university professor. I only made the edit because it appears that someone placed it there to create doubt about what these people are doing in creating an international cooperative; but it was also because the templates refer to dead ends. Well that is all up to you guys if you want to run people in circles and have erroneous info on Wikipedia thats up to you.
The templates refer to a discussion and dispute that are non-existent.
"The neutrality of this article is disputed. Please see the discussion on the talk page. Please do not remove this message until the dispute is resolved. (February 2010)"
What dispute? Nothing on the Talk page about a discussion or dispute.
"This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding reliable references. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed."
Maybe as a Wiki Editor you should go back and revert the guys edits that placed them there.
Whats wrong with the references they are reliable and valid?186.89.245.149 (talk) 15:26, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
- The references are ok as far as they go, but there is no citation or reference in the article that speaks about Globcal specifically. There are only references to Facebook Diplomacy, Social Diplomacy, etc. There are no references that indicate that the organization exists at all. Wikipelli Talk 01:36, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Latin America
Hi! I am having a little problem in the article Latin America with editor SamEV about Brazilian demographics. The main article about Brazil explains that the "Pardo" population is a a broad category that includes sub-categories such as the Mullattoes, Caboclos (known as "Mestizos" in Hispanic-America) and Cafuzos (known as "Zambo" in Hispanic America). In the Latin America article there is a table that says that 39.1% of Brazilian population are "mulatto" when the correct should be "Pardo". I explained that carefully in the talk page (See Talk:Latin America#Conflict with editor SamEV) but editor SamEV not only ignored my remarks but insist on reverting all my edits. I also tried to reach his in his own talk page but he simply erased my message. That is not a helpful behavior of his. I should had simply requested to an administrator to block him per the 3 eevert rules and asked for an arbitration since his behaving as his owns the article. However, I want to avoid that since the issue is something very simple, that is, nothing more than to clarify the table that present Brazilian demographics. As it is know, it says that there are 0% Caboclos or Mestizos (the majority of the population in Northern Region, Brazil, Northeast Region, BrazilandCentral-West Region, Brazil) and 0% Cafuzos or Zambos. Could you, please, share your thoughts about it in the article talk page? Thank you very much, --Lecen (talk) 10:42, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Grab some glory, and a barnstar
Hi, I'd like to invite you to participate in the Guild of Copy Editors July 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive. In May, about 30 editors helped remove the {{copyedit}} tag from 1175 articles. The backlog is still over 7500 articles, and extends back to the beginning of 2008! We really need your help to reduce it. Copyediting just a couple articles can qualify you for a barnstar. Serious copyeditors can win prestigious and exclusive rewards. See the event page for more information. And thanks for your consideration. monosock 03:56, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

Reverting vandalism
Hi. I see you have reverted an edit on the article Total Drama World Tour. However, as much as it sounds like the team name would be vandalism, it actually isn't. I agree that it would seem like vandalism, but it isn't. It actually is the team name. I know that it can easily be mistaken as vandalism, but it isn't. I put a section on the talk page of the article, by the way, on if we should add the full team name or not. Don't worry about what you reverted, because it can be easily mistaken as vandalism. --Hadger 21:40, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry. I just noticed that a piece of the edit you reverted was vandalism, which makes it eveneasier to think that the whole edit would've been vandalism. As I said before, though, don't worry about it. --Hadger 21:42, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
- Well, I'd be lying if I said I understood all that, but it sounds like I got the vandalism. Cheers. WikipelliTalk 18:54, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry. Sometimes I get hard to understand. By the way, you're right. You did get the vandalism. I'm just saying that the "Team Chris is Really Really Really Really Hot" part isn't vandalism (hard to believe, but that part wasn't vandalism). At first, that was the only part I saw on the edit you reverted, but then when I saw the full edit, I understood why you reverted it. --Hadger 23:43, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
- Well, I'd be lying if I said I understood all that, but it sounds like I got the vandalism. Cheers. WikipelliTalk 18:54, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Advance my Athlete
Hello,
I am an employee of Advance My Athlete and the reason I am updating these wiki pages is to help inform the public that these athletes are involved with our business and are major contributors to it. They have spent a lot of time in the last 9 months providing content for us, which I believe would be something that users would like to be aware of. I am not trying to spam these pages, and if the content I am providing has been done so in the wrong way, please let me know. Otherwise everything I am adding is credible truthful information, but unfortunately does not have a reference to cite.
Thank you,

The page has that title so why do you revert my correction. You must put them back now.204.174.87.29 (talk) 18:31, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
William Walker (soldier)
Since you haven't answer my message after your four totally inapropriate messages I have placed a complaint against you at the wikipedia bureau.204.174.87.29(talk) 18:43, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- ) I'm unfamiliar with the wikipedia 'bureau' and I don't respond well to commands that I restore changes that I have made. Since your initial 'orders', I have been checking back over the changes. I am more than willing to correct any mistakes that I have made, but only after I have sufficiently reviewed them. The changes appeared to me to be vandalism since the term 'filibuster' is not generally an occupation (ie. Tom Jones (entertainer) or Barrack Obama (politician). From my reading of the material, 'soldier' appeared to be the more appropriate label since it is an occupation. Again, I'm reviewing the changes and I will be more than happy to revert them if I feel they were in error.WikipelliTalk 19:01, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- I'm willing to concede that 'filibuster' is more appropriate than 'soldier' and I will restore that on the pages that I changed. I would ask (note the difference between asking and ordering here), that you first register and get an account. IP changes, unfortunately, are sometimes more suspect-conversely, changes by a registered user are not edited so quickly. Be that as it may, no matter what type of account you use, you might benefit from putting an explanation with your changes. Finally, please ask nicely if you feel something you've done has been wrongly changed. I'm reasonable and I do make mistakes. Wikipelli Talk 19:17, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Block
Hi. At the very point at which you were giving this user a final warning, I was blocking him for two weeks as a vandalism only account!! No disrespect intended. If you would rather follow the "final warning" route, I can rescind my block.Fainitesbarleyscribs16:25, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- no worries. I generally go by the numbers but if you feel the block is warrented, by all means. WikipelliTalk 16:27, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for flagging this account! I've blocked it indefinitely. --A. B. (talk • contribs) 19:24, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
- Well, when they specifically ask you to ban them, what else can you do? <smile> Wikipelli Talk 11:42, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
Why'd you revert the page blank? That usually is taken to signify the creator assents to deletion. If I'd seen the page blank, I'd have not undertaken a rescue attempt. Dlohcierekim23:22, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- yeah, I see that now. I didn't notice that the deletion tag had been there prior to the page blanking. Wikipelli Talk 12:19, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks...
