Apologies

Replied On My Talk Page

Not sure what happened myself. o.O I checked my edits and reverts and I'm pretty sure I haven't typed or said anything that accused you of doing anything wrong. Didn't think you had, and your history doesn't show you mess anything up. -WarthogDemon 07:09, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

If you're talking about the title of my warning being your username, that simply meant it was your page that I was talking about. Not that you were the vandal. Hope that clears things up. -WarthogDemon 07:12, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
All cleared up (responded on your page). The mastodons confused me. All better now. Thank you again for going after them. --Kathryn NicDhàna 07:17, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Spammer targeting Ghost, as well as other articles

You might want to know that the anonymous AOL user spamming Ghost (as well as other articles) is using not only two, but actually four different IP addresses - I've filed a complaint on the Administrator's noticeboard, listing any IP used that I am aware of. Feel free to add to my post if you like. Something needs to be done, and it seems that this guy just won't take a hint. No luck so far, though. /M.O (u) (t) 14:39, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Spammer has returned as 81.145.241.154--Kathryn NicDhàna 07:26, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Cogent article

This is the short bit concerning the anonymous editor argument: User:Bluemoose/Thoughts. I thought it provocative and worth reading. --Pigman (talk • contribs) 01:48, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism

Hi

If I am not mistaken a message was sent to me about "vandalism" regarding a paragraph under "Druids". One of my kids was found fooling around with this site for reasons unknown and I thought I'd rectified the "edit" within several minutes. If not, my apologies - I have restricted their access. If so,i.e. the version was restored immediately, I hardly need heavy-handed threats of expulsion.

Cheers, Norman Dale —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.77.95.238 (talkcontribs) 19:21, 4 December 2006 (UTC).

Hi, Norman - Ah, yes, the "stuffies" vandalism. While it was amusing, it was vandalism, hence the warnings. The paragraph had been inserted twice, so the warning went up to the second level. Editors have no way of knowing whether an act of vandalism is you or your child, so the warning goes to the page of the account or IP who left it. If vandalism comes from your account, the account may eventually be blocked. Thank you for reverting the most recent incident, and for helping prevent future vandalism. Slàinte, --Kathryn NicDhàna 19:40, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

No Subject

I am new to wikipedia

All this concern with 'labels', I don't possibly see how you could have read 0ver 15,000 words and watched many hours of video,as I only posted that link recently before passing judgement on the site. I have posted a critique on the plastic shaman page, which may give you a answer, I will post in the main shaman page in the next week. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dorjezigzag (talkcontribs)

I'm sure you will. ~ Kathryn NicDhàna 22:44, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

RE: Your Warning to JAVABEANRUSH Dec 14, 2006

Hi, I assume from the warning you left that I am not allowed to edit my own talk page at all. Is this correct? I've not been able to find information on this in the help section. Javabeanrush 08:11, 14 December 2006 (UTC)


I can edit it the talk page, just don't remove the warnings, is that it? Javabeanrush 08:13, 14 December 2006 (UTC)


You can reply to posts on your talk page, and when the talk page gets very long you can archive the page, as long as you link to it from your talk page. However it is against Wikipedia policy to remove vandalism warnings from your page. See WP:Vandalism for more info. --Kathryn NicDhàna 08:33, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Javabeanrush 02:34, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

More Vandalism talk

response to warning

I didn't vandalize the discussion page and your waring is in error. Discussion pages do not have the same rules as articles, and my contribution was not vandalism, don't bite the newbies. Please revert your warning immediately. 24.16.15.150 08:02, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

You wrote on my talk page:

While it is true that random comments on the talk page are not as serious as random comments in the article itself, your edit did nothing to further the work on the article and therefore was an abuse of the talk page. Looking at your edit history, you are not exactly a newbie. However you do have a history of vandalism and unproductive edits, therefore the warning stands. And as you have received three levels of prior warnings, the warning goes up to level 4. Sincerely, --Kathryn NicDhàna ♫♦♫ 08:27, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

A discussion page is open for discussion, and is not under your dissection to evaluate a comments 'worth.' Your attack of this particular edit is unrelated to my other edits, please stay within the scope of this specific warning. I insist that the warning be removed and this be moved to a wikipedia sysops or other official, as you have clearly let the power of your self appointed position lead you astray. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.16.15.150 (talkcontribs)

How about focusing on improving articles instead of using Wikipedia as a message board? Please see WP:NOT --Kathryn NicDhàna 20:18, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Why the hand

Have I been 'given the hand because the face ain't talking' or does it mean something, I do not know that I can't remove stuff on my own page. I find that you are aggresive with an agenda, you are not consistent with your punishments. Can you remove that hand of my page, I do not deserve it and I find it offensive.Dorjezigzag

That is the standard template used on Wikipedia to warn users not to remove user-conduct warnings from their talk pages. You removed warnings, you got the standard template. --Kathryn NicDhàna 05:58, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

WP:UW

Hi,

You have put yourself as interested in helping out atWikiProject on user warnings. We are now at a stage where we are creating the new templates and are wondering if you are still interested? If so please visit the overview page and choose a warning type you wish to work on. There is a base template available here, which you can copy and use to get you started. Have a look through the redirects and see what old templates are affected and incorporate them into the the new system. Anyway, any questions please don't hesitate to give me a shout. Regards Khukri (talk . contribs) 08:47, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you for reverting the vandalism to my user page. Best, Hagerman(talk) 08:48, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

VP custom message double signature

Hey, noticed you added a message to the noticedboard about leaving twice as many messages as necessary when using the Custom rollback feature of WP:VPRF. When you press the Custom rollback button you get a dialogue box with a checkbox on the bottom left saying something like "append link to warning". This is automatically checked. If you uncheck it and add the warning then you'll find that you don't double the warnings. Hope this helps (if you haven't already discovered it...). Cheers, and happy Christmas! Budgiekiller 21:39, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, Budgie! Yes, this is helpful. Happy SolChannuKwanzMas to you, too ;-) --Kathryn NicDhàna 21:45, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

You are more than welcome... enjoy! Budgiekiller 21:49, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Oops, I meant to say "Happy time of year"! Enjoy your goddess-time! All the best! Budgiekiller 21:54, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
