[edit] racemixing...

Sorry, I just forgot to log in. I restored some of the text but I just was in the middle of a cleanup. Thanks for clearing it up.

[edit] Hinderlider

Triona,

I just started the article. I will add information and sources as soon as I have time. Thank you! Non Curat Lex (talk) 10:04, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] correction by User:Symode09

Hey Triona! I have been given a warning on my talk page for something I have not done. I am an estabished editor (User:Symode09) and, believe this is some coincidence. Thanks 203.59.173.29 (talk) 08:58, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Nonviolent Revolution

Please read the article's talk page. As I said there, I don't have all the sources directly to hand, and I'm not 100% confident in my ability to write a properly NPOV section, but the section should definitely exist, and I'm hoping that my first attempt will encourage others to fill it in.

I've just started looking at the Colour Revolutions page to see if there are any sources there that apply to the Nonviolent Revolution page as well. If not, if I get a chance later, and nobody else has done it, I'll try to dig up sources elsewhere.

Thanks. --76.204.77.196 (talk) 10:45, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Badger-baiting

Thanks for keeping an eye on this article that IP has tried to add that nonsense before, so we will have to be vigilant. Chessy999 (talk) 14:50, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for trimming Metasyntactic variable. I added a comment after the section header that seeks to explain that it is not a list of every possible example. --Jtir (talk) 20:27, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rock Lobster

What did I do wrong? I saw that there was vandalism on the Rock Lobster page, and took the advice of WP:BOLD, and decided to make the change. Should I just stay out of this kind of business? 71.225.77.162 (talk) 01:11, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Stop beating me to rollback. You have reverted like 10 pages before I even got to them in the last 5 minutes. Thedjatclubrock :) (T/C) 00:22, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

hi, why you send me message sayin I vandilize? Im trying to contribute, How can i be like you and spot and destroy vandilism. I want to dedicate the next 5 hours of my life to stopping wiki vandilism because im bored :) help get me started? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wingstrong (talk • contribs) 00:39, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

You rock, you've beaten me a whole bunch of times. :) No problem, apparently I'm a "vandalbot", more like an anti-vandal bot. Some people just don't get the difference... Keilana|Parlez ici 03:39, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Warnings

The whole point of huggle is to automate the process of warning vandals, because all these different levels and templates are unnecessary and the less time wasted on it the better. First, if a user ignores their first vandalism warning, they are going to ignore all others as well. No user has ever ignored the first three vandalism warnings and then suddenly decided to pay attention to the fourth. They may have got bored and stopped editing and so appeared to do so, but they did not. Second, all these extra templates like ones for blanking and testing and adding nonsense are completely unnecessary. If a vandal blanks a page and recieves a warning telling them to stop vandalising, do you really think they are going to go "oh, well you didn't identify the specific type of vandalism, therefore I'm not going to stop"? Do you think if someone then leaves a no-blanking template they're going to go "oh, that's what I was doing, I'll stop now"? Please, think about this – Gurch 03:18, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

You have a point there, although I'm also thinking about types of harmful edits that are not vandalism, but still revert-on-sight - such as personal attacks and spam. - Stephanie Daugherty (Triona) - Talk - Comment - 03:21, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Personal attacks are intentionally unconstructive, and therefore vandalism. It is already possible to issue warnings for spam – Gurch 03:40, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Triona (talk) 10:10, 24 January 2008 (UTC) United Irish

The tithe laws were not a part of the Penal laws, but went back to 1172. Abolishing them was on the UI agenda, and indeed on Grattan's agenda, as he failed to reform them in the 1780s.

Your edit suggests that the UI might have been in favour of tithes. In fact the UI wanted to finance a new republic by selling church lands or issuing bonds backed by church lands, as had happened in France. Do you want to revert your edit or do you want me to add a reference?86.42.202.0 (talk) 13:43, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

I simply moved the Klingon guy from the first list to the section designated for fictional characters

hi there. my changes were correct. don't argue —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.116.26.210 (talk) 15:33, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Undoing page blanking

A word of advice: when a page has been blanked, that is usually vandalism, and then it is a good thing to undo the blanking; but you need to check the history, because sometimes, as with Fortune high-tech marketing, the page has been blanked by its own author. In that case, the thing to do is to add a {{db-author}} tag, which asks for a speedy-delete G7 "author requests deletion or has blanked the page". Regards, JohnCD (talk) 15:47, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Six Sigma

You added the {{Confusing}} template to the Six Sigma article a few days back. Would it be possible to mark up five or more statements you find particularly in need of explanation? (e.g., with {{huh}}, {{what}}, {{unclear}}, or {{clarifyme}}) -- DanielPenfield (talk) 16:00, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi Tríona. I noticed you deleted your userpage for privacy concerns. Good idea - I did the same :) I noticed, though, that this image is still about. If you want it deleted, just let me know and I'll zap it. Keep up the good work, girl! - Alison ❤ 19:04, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

My RfA was successful, and closed with 44 Supports, 6 Opposes, and 1 Neutral.

Wow. I think around 80% of the vandalism I have tried to revert today you have already reverted. Great job! Kakofonous (talk) 16:22, 2 February 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Revert

Hello - I noticed in this edit you reverted an editor who appeared to be working in good faith but was unsure of the correct format, then you posted an "unconstructive" comment on their talk page without offering assistance. Have you had a chance to read Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers? Jeepday (talk) 16:24, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

I am not a vandal. The page changed name in Swedish, there are many Canada Cup, so I corrected the link. It is now sv:Canada Cup i ishockey 1981 in Swedish, as you can see. I've corrected such links many times before (with other user numbers), and nothing has happened. 90.224.12.168 13:48, 3 February 2008 (CET)

I have an account here too (I'm Johan1982), but I seldom use Wikipedia in English, so often I don't login. I know I should have written in the "edit summary". / 90.224.12.168 14:11, 3 February 2008 (CET)

[edit] About your choice to withdraw your candidacy for Adminship

I want to commend you first for applying for the mop. You do seem to be serious about the pedia, someone whose contributions can be counted on to be positive and thoughtful. So I encourage you to pursue your course. You should find a coach, and keep plugging. Adminship is less likely to be dispensed to someone who hasn't contributed consistently, or paid some dues. So put together three months like the last one and (if you survive) I might nominate you myself, if someone else hasn't done so. Your choice to withdraw likely caused you some pain. IMHO, I thought withdrawing was a classy choice, which shows high regard for community support. A tiny bit courageous, on your part. Best wishes, and if you ever need help, you got my link. BusterD (talk) 15:20, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Triona, if you want help in creating articles, let me know. Cheers. miranda 22:47, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Triona, I'd like you to know that even though I weakly opposed your RfA this time, I think you're doing a lot of valuable work and I'm sure you know a lot of things about how to do RC patrol that I don't know. I'm particularly impressed that you started the Cancelbot article: that's quite an important topic. I hope you're not too discouraged by this RfA thing and that you continue to enjoy editing. Note that I'm not an admin either, and I make mistakes too: just yesterday (UTC) I posted a bunch of welcome templates and forgot to sign them. Might even have forgotten to subst some of them. If you can forgive me for my vote far enough to answer a question for me, and if you know, I wonder if you'd be willing to tell me whether there's a template that looks pretty much like the {{welcome}} template but is specifically designed for anonymous users, i.e. suggests getting an account. Replying here is fine. --Coppertwig (talk) 00:25, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Triona seriously doesn't need a coach. What kinda articles do you like working on? Let's fix up or create one or two, and then re-apply? --Kim Bruning (talk) 22:29, 8 February 2008 (UTC) though why do you want the demotion? :-P

Hi, Triona. Thanks for the info and suggestions. I may try out those scripts a little later on. Good to see you back from your wikibreak. :-) --Coppertwig (talk) 12:51, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
Triona: where are you? I hope you're coming back soon! --Coppertwig (talk) 01:48, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Admin coaching request

You have previously expressed an interest in undergoing the Admin coaching program. We're currently engaged in a program reset to help things move more smoothly in the future. If you are still interested in the program, please go to Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Requests for Coaching and re-list yourself under Current requests, deleting your entry from Older requests. Also, double-check to make sure coaching is right for you at theCoachee checklist; WP:Adoption or WP:Editor review may be more appropriate depending on your situation and aspirations. We should get back to you within a day or so, once a coaching relationship has been identified. Thank you. MBisanz talk 06:51, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Huggle User Category

Hi there. I have seen that you use huggle by the fact that you have automatically updated the huggle white list(it does this when closing huggle). I was wondering if you would add the category [[Category:Wikipedians who use Huggle]] to your user page so that it fills out and we know who actually uses huggle. If you do not want to you do not have to. I am also sorry if i have already talked to you about this or you no longer use huggle but i sent it to everyone that has edited the page since mid January. I hope we can start to fill out this category. If you would like to reply to this message then please reply on my talk page as i will probably not check here again. Thanks. ·Add§hore· Talk/Cont 18:27, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Contested prod

Just in case you haven't seen from your watchlist, I deleted Detachable Penis when your PROD expired, but have recently restored it upon request. Some work has now been done to the article, so you might want to see whether your concerns have been addressed. If not, since the article has been deleted via a PROD already, the next step would be WP:AFD. Regards, BencherliteTalk 07:48, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] regarding "vandalizing" wikipedia...

Hi, Sorry, I have no idea of what you are talking about. I am a behavioural neuroscientist in a psychology department, but certainly would never comment on an article on insomnia (not my area of research). It is probably a case of shared IP address (wireless users in our department). And besides, I have my own user name. The only reason why I would comment on insomnia (and I honestly do not remember doing so) is if there was any obvious false information on the neuroscience of the disorder (neurotransmitters, hormones?).
