[edit] Unnecessary reversion

Although I quite often revert IP edits myself, I found your reversion of the IP edit at E-mail spam to be unnecessary. It happened to be me -- I was logged out when I made the edit without realizing it -- and the message you left at the IP talk page saying it was unconstructive was puzzling as I was correcting an obvious factual error. Cheers. 23skidoo (talk) 16:55, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

  • No worries. You're not the only one (I've done it to IPs plenty of times myself). 23skidoo (talk) 17:05, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:KramerTop 01.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:KramerTop 01.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:27, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Good job?

Have I been doing a good job of warning users and reverting vandalism? I want to know if I am doing the right thing. Thanks, Razorflame (talk) 16:10, 16 April 2008 (UTC) (please reply on my talk page :)) Thanks, Razorflame (talk) 16:10, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Please consider also warning vandals

Thank you for reverting vandalism on Wikipedia. Could you also please consider using our vandal warning system [1]? First offenses get a "test1," then a "test2," followed by a "test3" and "test4." At the end of this, if the vandal persists, he or she merits blocking for a period of time. If you do this, it will greatly help us in decreasing vandalism on Wikipedia. Much thanks, -- Kukini háblame aquí 16:18, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

It is for that very reason that I have remained old school in my rc patrolling. You might find the following useful if you decide to try old school editing. --Kukini háblame aquí 16:22, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rickroll image

Eh, whatever floats your boat. No biggie. --293.xx.xxx.xx (talk) 20:56, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Debian edit

Why did you add Unstable and Experimental into the "Branches" section when it already is in the "Official repositories" section? Note you wrote Experimental wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by VShaka (talk • contribs) 21:59, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] open mail relay

Hi. First, I need to apologize for taking way too long, but I have finally gotten around to making at least most of the changes I promised to make weeks ago. As Dean Anderson complained a lot about some of the stuff in the history section, I deleted some more of it. I also added a few points about why open relays were important early on, but once bulk mail detection systems were started to be used, they became far less important.

Again, sorry this took so long. Feel free to hack on it. I still have a few things left on my TODO list, but don't think we will step on each other's toes. Wrs1864 (talk) 00:40, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
