P.S. Jailbreak is NOT illegal. So don't delete it again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ugkakarot (talk • contribs) 19:34, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
Sorry that you were unable to edit recently, but as you can see at Special:Contributions/64.136.26.226 this IP has been vandalizing a lot lately. I'm afraid it is not quite as easy to just unblock a username and not an IP just yet. So I have unblocked the IP for now. Please be aware that if the vandalism persists there may be more blocks, however we will try to keep them to a minimum now that we know that your IP is used by many users. -- malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 05:12, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

I Giants27(Contribs|WP:CFL) award you the Copyeditor's Barnstar for your top notch copyediting of Michael Vick. Keep it up! Giants27(Contribs|WP:CFL) 02:14, 24 October 2009 (UTC) |
I assure you that I did not nominate this for deletion in bad faith or to make a point. I made it as a test case, or if you will, for the precedential value, so that we can have a body of standard examples. There has been much talk about sourcing unsourced BLPs. Other than a very small handful of users, nobody had done anything about the problem, but you would not know that from the firestorm of whining. The emerging consensus has been to use the current system, with tweaks and reasonable exceptions. This and other test cases have proven that mass deletion will not work. BLPs of obviously notable persons can stay up with minimal sourcing. I am sorry that my comments were intemperate and upset you. However, I am satisfied with the outcome. Bearian (talk) 21:46, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for taking the time to weigh in on my RfA. It was successful, in that the community's wish not to grant me the tools at this time was honored. I'm taking all the comments as constructive feedback and hope to become more valuable to the project as a result; I've also discovered several new areas in which to work. Because debating the merits of a candidate can be taxing on the heart and brain, I offer this kitten as a low-allergen, low-stress token of my appreciation. --otherlleft 14:34, 8 February 2010 (UTC) |
Hi I just wanted to apologise for my personal opinion getting in the way of that genre earlier in the Avril Lavigne song. I found that source myself and aimed to use it specifically for pop rock as I didn't think anyone would really consider the song to be just rock. Anyway, hope we didn't get off on the wrong foot!

Hello I don't know if this is the correct place to contact wikipedia but I tried sending wikipedia and e-mail in which they never replied and I wanted to tell you that yall have the wrong information on the population of Dallas Tx and I know because I live in Dallas. Google Dallas Tx population and see what you get it's close to 2.5 million not 1.2 like it says. Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.172.56.53 (talk) 14:39, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Hi SluggoOne. You recently changed the Doug Reinhardt article, including the removal of a section that indicated a particular children's book, written by his mother, was based on Doug's early interest in baseball. I think any book that is based on the subject person of a biographical article is relevant to the article, even if it happens to be a children's book. Possibly the deleted paragraph could have been more neutral. Can you explain why you feel it is not relevant? Thanks. MissionInn.Jim (talk) 14:01, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
Greetings! Thank you for filing an Abuse Report for abusive behavior originating from 66.240.30.150. We wanted to let you know that the case for the report you filed for 66.240.30.150 has been closed. Thank you again for filing and alerting us of this IP's abusive behavior.

WP:DTTR is not a policy, just an essay. You looked like you needed a reminder so I posted a template, a personalized message would've said the same thing. ×××BrightBlackHeaven(talk)××× 19:01, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:55, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Legal threat?. Thank you. CIreland (talk) 15:20, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
The article happened to be on my watchlist because I looked it up once to see what he is doing now, and perhaps I did a minor edit. You cleaned things up a lot--much appreciated. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk) 21:41, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi Sluggo, I've added three months semi-protection to your talk page because of vandalism. That means IPs and new users won't be able to post here, so if you'd like it undone before the three months is up, please ping me or ask on RfPP. Cheers, SlimVirgin talk|contribs 02:25, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Hey remember u said dis a cupple munths ago????
Thank you for your entirely useless efforts at Talk:Michael Vick. My response took lot more effort than you deserve. Believe it or not, I actually encourage you to get an account so you can vandalize that page. You'll see why it's not something to worry about. Şłџğģő 01:19, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
WELL SCREWWWW U!!!!!!! Slug!
good day!!!
I went to User talk:24.171.61.51 intending to post a warning against vandalism, only to find that you had already posted his third strike warning. So, I guess this means he's out.--*Kat* (talk) 00:24, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. — Tivedshambo (t/c) 20:02, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
Please explain to me why you're reveritng my edits, when you clearly haven't seen what I've done.
I have not edited that page in months. I made one recnt edit which you described as "edit warring". That is not assuming good faith. Cranmer is indeed a martyr according to the CoE, but he was also a traitor according to the Queen's court, and was subject to execution on that ground regardless of his religious status. Even Catholics agree he was executed. That is the NPOV statement. Your reversion of my edit amounts to taking the POV stance. I have an edit history on that page as wrotesolid but do not have access to that account at this computer. Please agf and act neutrally. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.251.143.28 (talk) 03:33, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
Now that I have read WP:YouTube, have you read WP:CIVIL? The tone of your last message was rather inappropriate. Groin strain (talk) 17:46, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

While this user was obviously operating under a misconception about what Wikipedia is and how it works, you warned them [2] for removing content from their own user page. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:27, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
Just a quick note to let you know I removed the speedy deletion tag from this article. It was previously nominated for AfD but the result was "keep". In my opinion that suggests that the deletion would be controversial, and so speedy deletion under A7 would be inappropriate. You might like to consider taking it to WP:AFD if you still think it should be deleted. Cheers,

And I just tried to list it, apparently successfully, so I think I'll quit Wikipedia forever now. Şłџğģő 19:41, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
I have been adding these "People from Almaty" in. I can imagine that you thought they were meant for the German wiki. They are actually copies from that list. I will try to correct them as I go. I know that some of the names have German spelling. Is that OK? Thanks. Wallie (talk) 06:28, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
How can I make the Florence House page more encyclopedic? It is NOT meant to promote a "company, product, group, service or person" it is a notable building in Portland, Maine and should be in the encyclopedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Feetplanted (talk • contribs) 18:46, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
In regard to this page, please note that the editor indicated that he was from Nigeria, which might explain the fact that his writing in English was unclear. However, there was nothing about it that read like spam or patent nonsense, and speedy deletion should probably not have been requested per WP:BITE. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 21:42, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
It seems that I accidentally removed the semi-protection template at Kevin Durant while reverting some vandalism that had been missed. Sorry. Zagalejo^^^ 20:39, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
When you welcome someone - as you did on User_talk:Wtf305 - please can you use ((subst:welcome)) instead of just ((welcome)) - so that the welcome is a permanent entry on their page, not a transclusion that might change. Or, you might want to enable WP:FRIENDLY, which does it all for you. Cheers, Chzz ► 10:07, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

My addition of a new section to psychology of religion was not ad copy. Is this a field that you know anything about? I do. His book is one of the more important books in the field. Please do not remove. Thanks. Health Researcher (talk) 07:05, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I've noticed that you've been doing a lot of work with tagging pages for speedy deletion. May I recommend you use Twinkle which is a Wikipedia plugin for reverting and tagging pages. Thanks, Stickee (talk) 08:10, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
Thank you, very much, for your kind words during Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Most Hated Family in America about my efforts to improve the quality of the article, The Most Hated Family in America. Much appreciated. Cheers, -- Cirt (talk) 10:21, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi. As you recently commented in the straw poll regarding the ongoing usage and trial of Pending changes, this is to notify you that there is an interim straw poll with regard to keeping the tool switched on or switching it off while improvements are worked on and due for release on November 9, 2010. This new poll is only in regard to this issue and sets no precedent for any future usage. Your input on this issue is greatly appreciated. Off2riorob (talk) 23:49, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi SluggoOne, I appreciate your time and mission to edit for accuracy. I am little confused, as I added a speaking engagement he did for Walmart with a link and a change to developing the social media technology to it has been developed. If you feel it is too promotional, feel free to edit, as that was not the intent. The intent was to add current information. And according to the Wikipedia instructions "If promotional content was simply added to an existing article, do not mark it for speedy deletion." Please advise. Thank you SluggoOne and have a great weekend! Greenopedia (talk) 22:32, 24 September 2010 (UTC)Greenopedia
Hello, I appreciate the work that you are doing in screening wikipedia articles, but do not see why you are trying to remove the article that I put up. I'm not advertising or spamming, so if you could remove the notice it would be greatly appreciated.

As her very first edit, new user Darya Gorbyatuk posted a general knowledge question on her talk page. Clearly, she is not familiar with our guidelines for talk page use, nor is she aware of the best place to get an answer to a general knowledge question (the reference desk, of course). Summarily deleting her question with the terse edit summary "Not how that works" is one of the rudest possible responses to a new user looking for help. Please familiarize yourself with WP:BITE and try to be more welcoming of new users.--Bad edits r dumb (talk) 07:50, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

It appears that you are aware that an user is allowed to remove comments from his talk page, so I'm not sure why you decided to do that to a user's talk page. An user is allowed to remove comments from his talk page, no explanation needed. Doing do acknowledges that the user has received the messages previously posted.

SluggoOne, in regard to the recent AN/I thread (permalink), I have removed your access to Twinkle and Rollback. There is a consensus at the thread that you have abused these tools, and can not currently be trusted with them. Please remember that rollback should only be used for reverting vandalism, which does not include good faith edits made by other users, or edits which are useful to the project (such as helping a new user find their feet). I also warn you that in future you need to make sure you are kind to any new comers, remember that they've only just joined, and aren't likely to understand how anything works, and you need to not disregard criticism because of the user it comes from. Remember to treat things on their own merit, rather then that of the users who support it (similar to the "comment on content, not the contributor"). Regards, - Kingpin13 (talk) 10:45, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
