Joke Vandalism

Some lovely diamonds for your 1500th Jubilee

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page you will be blocked from editing. -- Essjay · Talk 04:46, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, yeah, I'm being funny too...I saw your little vandalism. Congratulations on hitting 1500!

I would have been here sooner, but I got a call from a friend (at 12:30 at night!) who has a kidney infection. She wanted my adivce on what to do; I told her my specialty is theology not peeology and that just because I have Dr. in front of my name doesn't mean I practice medicine! (Actually, I told her to go to the ER if she felt that bad.) Anywho, good work! -- Essjay · Talk 04:46, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

How are you a Dr. if your degree is in Theology...? Redwolf24 04:47, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I'm a Dr. because I have two doctorate degrees (four if you count honorary degrees), although I'm only called "Dr." in academic circles. Same reason that any professor (except med school, of course) is called "Dr." -- Essjay · Talk 04:51, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Ph. D. Beautiful. Guess my academic achievement! Redwolf24 04:52, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Hummm...I don't know! You tell me. I don't talk about the degrees much because I don't want people to assume things about me; for the most part, I have them listed there because they can be of some help when someone is wondering whether I know what I'm talking about or not. So, if you hadn't noticed my academic creds, what did you think about me? -- Essjay · Talk 04:58, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Well I'll try to be NPOV about it. :P I think of you as a very kind user who chases vandals. I haven't seen you contribute to articles lately, just reverting vandalism. NPOV is hard ya know >.< Anyways I'll show my education after I become an admin, though I was just wondering if anyone would vote for me really... Yes I welcome and yes I've created a lot of music related articles and I've been very active but I don't revert vandalism that much. So I'm not sure I'll win the first RfA... Ah well though, if at first you don't suceed, try and try again. Redwolf24 05:05, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Well, I wasn't sure how mine would go, and I have 27-1-1! Granted, there's still a week to go, but some RfA's don't get 27 votes total in the whole week. TenOfAllTrades is pretty popular, and he got 58 support votes total; I've gotten half that in the first day! My point isn't to brag at all, just to say, you never know! I guarantee you you'll get at least one vote that says Overwhealming, Enthusiastic, Unequivocal Support, And I am unanimous in that! -- Essjay · Talk 05:14, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

I knew you'd get a lot of people. You are always helping and watching help desks though. Plus you answered the questions better than I think I will... Redwolf24 05:16, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I think you'll do fine. You do a fair bit of helping, and it's obvious you're willing to help when asked. As for the desks, you can watch them too if you want, it honestly doesn't tak much time. When it comes time to answer those questions, if you're having trouble, I'll help you out. Plus, you know I'm going to give you awesome reviews in your nom!

It doesn't take a lot to get into RC patrol, and really, when you do, you'll get caught up in it. (Think of how much fun we had chasing the trolls the other day!) You're going to be an admin, and you're going to be great at it! -- Essjay · Talk 05:22, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

=-D I'm off to Welcome some more people! Yay {{Subst:User:Redwolf24/Welcome}}

Believe it baby! I beat you to 'em! [Does a little dance] Not many of them out there right now, though, is there? -- Essjay · Talk 05:37, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Rawr. Well I still beat you 97% of the time so I'm fine :P. No there hasn't been many newbs.... Redwolf24 05:40, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

You've Got Mail. Redwolf24 05:43, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

So do you! -- Essjay · Talk 05:51, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

haha, ~~~~ doesn't work in hotmail. What a shame! Redwolf24 05:57, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Did I sign it ~~~~? God, I do have an addiction. And I left you a link in my sandbox. -- Essjay · Talk 06:00, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

You've gotta go see the latest vote! It's #28. -- Essjay · Talk 06:09, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Haha good stuff. I really better catch up. Redwolf24 06:11, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I'm proud to be a trollslayer! The trolls shall not prevail! -- Essjay · Talk 06:45, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Where'd you disappear to? -- Essjay · Talk 07:33, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

I was talking with some girls. They seemed to be confused. :) Redwolf24 07:34, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Randy little bugger! ; - ) -- Essjay · Talk 07:37, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Troll

Your troll is back! Special:Contributions/Mickey654 Same time every day! -- Essjay · Talk 07:51, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

>.< Its alright though. Cept he was banned for 24 hours it says. He'll be back. Oh yes, he will be back. Anyways one of those girls was being harassed online by an Ephebophile. There's nothing I loathe more than men over 18 who go with girls under 16 cause they can't get any with their own age. It frustrates me to no end. I would go on but there's no point. Anywho, now I'll leave my John Hancock. Redwolf24 08:05, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Uncanny; I'm discussing the 24 hour block with the blocker as we speak! Don't worry, the Trollslayer is on the case!

As for your friend, I sympatize with her; I'm too old for chicken, and I stay away from it. Besides that, what do a thirty-something-year-old and a sixteen-year-old have in common? ; - ) -- Essjay · Talk 08:16, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

They're both horny? Redwolf24 08:20, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Dirty bugger! Cheeky monkey! : - ) Check your email. -- Essjay · Talk 08:22, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

K, I added a section to my user page in a dubious attempt to be profound. Ha, Redwolf24 08:28, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I applaud your profoundity! -- Essjay · Talk 09:12, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

And I jokingly scowl at your sarcasm :) Back to RC Redwolf24 09:13, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

You've been at RC? I've been having a theology discussion! Now, time for some real-time RC patrol. BTW, the list just keeps getting longer! -- Essjay · Talk 09:21, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Hey, Red, go check User talk:Salilus; it looks like there's something wrong with your template! -- Essjay · Talk 09:24, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I know, and frankly I don't get it. You won't be able to fix it either I dont think >.< Redwolf24 09:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Are you copy/pasting or using the {{ }}? -- Essjay · Talk 09:35, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Edit conflict, predictable one. I was using {{Subst:User:Redwolf24/Welcome}} but now I'm copying nad pasting. Redwolf24 09:36, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

If you don't want to have to copy/paste, I can fix it so you can subst: -- Essjay · Talk 09:38, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer, but please don't. Copy and paste is simpler and two buttons, subst is like 20 keystrokes. Redwolf24 09:40, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Didn't you tell me you use Firefox? Get this extension. It lets you set predefined signatures (no character limit), and then insert them by right clicking (it adds a signature menu to your right click). That's what I use for my welcomes as well as all my RC patrol notices. It makes it two clicks and you have your message, plus you don't have to keep it on the clipboard to use it, so you can use it when you stumble across some hot girl. : - ) -- Essjay · Talk 09:50, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Ha. Redwolf24 09:52, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Ha? -- Essjay · Talk 10:01, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yes, Ha. I'll take a look at that stuff some other time. Right now I'm a bit busy. Also, take a look at User:THE BULLSHIT DETECTOR and User:THE BULLSHIT DETECTIVE. Redwolf24 10:06, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Calm down, dude...I just didn't quite get what you meant by "Ha." I know you've been busy; your name's gone across my RC screen quite a few times in the last few mins. ; - ) As for those users, I'm going to list them at RfC. -- Essjay · Talk 10:09, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Whoa didn't mean to come off as hostile. By the way I was just at RC and there were FOUR USERS IN A ROW without talk pages!! *click* *ctrl+v* *save* *back* *back* *Rinse, Wash, and repeat 3 more times* Redwolf24 10:25, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Help

Thanks for writing back.

I already entered my revisions and saved.

Does that mean I can't "sign"?

I just can't figure out what it is I'm supposed to sign, or where.

If I logged in before making revisions, does that mean that I'm already "signed" ?

Bounce Your Boobies

Thanks for sticking that category label on the Bounce Your Boobies page. When I created the article, I was afraid some wickedpedean would come along and delete it, but instead I'm getting help! Wikipedia is great... :) -asx- 05:04, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Haha, to tell you the truth I expected that to be deleted, I thought someone was vandalizing. Then I saw that it was an actual song. So I stuck a category on it :) Redwolf24 05:07, 14 July 2005 (UTC)</nowiki>

Thanks from Skillz

Heh Thanks for the welcome. Skillz187

Thanks again

Skillz187 10:21, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

No problem. And if you ever need help, I'm your man :) Redwolf24 16:02, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Usernames

(I'm starting a new section 'cause the old one was getting really long.)

Anyhow, I listed both of those users at RfC, and I left notes on each of thier pages directing them to the username policy. Also, the one with the nasty note on his user page got a note about no personal attacks. We'll see what the admins at RfC say. -- Essjay · Talk 10:24, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

(I think you missed the above.)

I didn't mean to sound like I thought you were hostile; that's why I added the smiley. I just didn't want you to think I was being snippy. -- Essjay · Talk 10:27, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yeah at first I didn't comment cause of that smiley but then I decide to, minutes later albeit. Redwolf24 10:29, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

WHY DID YOU DELETE MY USER ACCOUNT?

THE BULLSHIT DETECTIVE

Sounds like somebody needs to lay off the coffee...

And it was deleted because it's an offensive username. I suggest you read Wikipedia:Username_policy to make sure it doesn't happen again. NickBush24 11:13, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Further, you should know that Redwolf24 cannot delete accounts; if your account was blocked, it was by a Wikipedia administrator because it violated Wikipedia policy. Please see your talk page for an explaination. -- Essjay · Talk 11:16, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Neither account has been blocked as of now; however, consensus to block is developing at RfC. -- Essjay · Talk 11:20, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

I was the one who started it out. I was gonna welcome him but then I saw his name and changed it to a name warning. Redwolf24 11:44, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Right, then I went behind you and left a policy link and listed it at RfC. I don't know why he thinks his account was deleted, when it obviously hasn't been. Perhaps he needs to direct his crusade towards himself. -- Essjay · Talk 11:46, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

THATS A PERSONAL ATTACK. MY NAME DOESNT OFFEND ANYONE AND YOU KNOW IT. IF U WANNA SPLIT HAIRS LIKE THAT, Y'ALL SHOULD REPORT YOURSELVES FOR PERSONALLY ATTACKING ME. I DONT FOLLOW MINDLESS RULES. UNLESS YOU CAN PROVE MY NAME IS INFRINGING ON SOMEONES RIGHTS, IT STAYS

THE BULLSHIT DETECTIVE

Your name offends... The username policy. Your Caps Lock is slightly annoying. You add "quackery" to medical articles. You will be banned within the next 3 hours. Redwolf24 16:30, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

The irony of having a bullshit detective deal out bullshit quite tickles my funnybone... Ta bu shi da yu 05:11, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

Your standard welcome message needs fixing

Methinks you need to fix your standard welcome message by replacing all occurrences of the tilde ~ by ~ lest the tilde-sequences get replaced when you {{subst: it. See e.g. User talk:Reynoldsrapture for the effect. Lupo 12:08, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yes I've been addressed on this several times. Thanks for your concern and nice to see a fellow Wolf! Redwolf24 12:23, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the Welcome message

I also like messages :)

Martin Fasani

thanks from Buck

Thanks for the welcome. I've been visiting Wikipedia for quite a while but just started officially editing this week. You mentioned orphans. Define that for me? Also, do you know how to start a new article on a subject that shares its title with an existing article? Case in point: I wanted to add an article on guitarist Steve White but in attempting to do so, I learned that there is another musician named Steve White, a drummer. So when I started my article, I had to alter the title to Steve White (guitarist) for lack knowing a better system. Also, if someone searches for "Steve White" they will only find a reference to the drummer.

I tried to find info through reading the help pages, but so far no luck...

buck 14:16, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Taken care of. See Steve White now. :) Redwolf24 14:21, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Oh yeah, orphans. An orphan page is a page that isn't in any categories. Like your Steve White would be in Category:Guitarists. Redwolf24 14:22, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Wow, that was quick! Thanks a bunch. buck 14:25, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

No prob, I love to help! If you need anything else, you know where to find me :) Redwolf24 14:27, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Hi!

I am still finding my way around, so forgive if I make mistakes. I mean well and I'll end up fixing them. I will appreciate any criticism and feedback. I also love the talk, so leave me a message every now and then! And don't worry, I'm the kind that reads the boring material, even if it takes me a while.

Thanx for your welcome!

Another thanks for welcoming!

Thanks for the welcome... I just got done with the tutorial and hope to start with some updating of some pages related to my university! Fallstorm 17:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Wow, you read the tutorials. Studies show that only 1 in every 200 wikipedians read those. Also, 47.2% of statistics are made up on the spot. Anyways, Kudos for reading them. I'm sure you'll be a very valuable user!! Redwolf24 17:28, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Barnstar

For great work in welcoming new users to Wikipedia, I hereby award you the Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar. Sango 123 16:11, July 13, 2005 (UTC)

Hi, Redwolf. Awesome work on making new users feel welcome! Blue talk page links with red user page links and the thank-you messages on this page are evidence enough. :)

Sango 123 17:34, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you VERY much!! :D Redwolf24 17:36, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

You mean the picture of the London City Hall? It's nice, isn't it? :) You can get one of Wikipedia's best images delivered to your user or talk page every day by typing {{Pic of the day}} where you want the Pic of the Day to appear. These are the July Pics of the Day. Regards, Sango 123 17:45, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yes it is quite nice. Im not sure I want the pic of the day, it looks a bit too big and cluttering. Anyways, remember to support me when I RfA. :-P *advertises* With much respect, Redwolf24 17:51, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Of course I'll vote for you! Providing I don't forget, of course. So in actuality, the chances are pretty slim. (Just kidding.) ;) Sango 123 19:34, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

uh oh, better remember :P. I'll leave a giant message on this page saying ESSJAY NOMINATED ME (cause, just as I nominated him, he's gonna nominate me. We made a deal to nominate eachother at 2000 edits) and then you can go and gimme a yes :D Redwolf24 19:47, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

That wasn't a threat, was it? :D I just checked: You're at 1751 edits. Good luck in advance! Sango 123 19:55, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Wow, good guess of me wasn't it :) If we keep using these colons we're gonna have a column with one letter per break Redwolf24 19:57, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I wonder if it's possible for the text to be so indented that it'll disappear...? Sango 123 20:04, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yeah I did it before :P Redwolf24 20:06, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Anti-vandalism is needed a lot too. See Republic of Illinois for the biggest hoax I've ever seen on Wikipedia. Redwolf24 22:12, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

re:Republic of Illinois

Speedied. When I first heard about 9/11 though (by word of mouth, not on the news,) I didn't think it was true either. Thanks for the help! Y0u (Y0ur talk page) (Y0ur contributions) 22:22, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

No problem at all. As for 9/11, my mum woke me up and showed me it on tv. But that Illinois thing was a well written hoax. Anyway's I've see you before as an admin and despite the fact that you're a newer admin, you seem to be doing fine. By week's end I should be at RfA, I hope I can count on your vote! :) Redwolf24 22:24, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I took a quick look at your contributions, and since I believe in granting adminship very liberally, I've seen all I need to in order to support you. As it turned out, that was the first vfd I closed (I had to look up how to do it,) so it was a good start for me anyway. Y0u (Y0ur talk page) (Y0ur contributions) 22:34, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Haha, I just read up a bit on the admin pages you're supposed to read when you become one. Anyways, look at Essjay who I nominated, his votes are like 40-1-1!!!!! Redwolf24 22:36, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Well, I did read that bit before, but I promptly forgot it since I had no intention of closing vfd discussions at the time. I will read it again if I ever decide to do so (all I've been doing as an admin is deleting speedy candidates and blocking obvious vandals after they have been warned.) Y0u (Y0ur talk page) (Y0ur contributions) 22:45, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Yes, its quite wise to not do too much until you know what you're doing. With respect, Redwolf24 22:47, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Quiet Commie-nazi, I need not hear what you say. User:Iamzodyourzodeveryzod I don't care about redbaiting how about that.

Commie-nazi. That makes sense. Redwolf24 23:22, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

It was a reference to something, if you didn't have the intellegence of a 5 year old, then you understand it. You liberal meshugina.

User:Iamzodyourzodeveryzod

Pffft. I'm not even liberal (or conservative for that matter). Redwolf24 23:28, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Then you're a communist, because you are not Zod like me, so you cannot have the same opinions on things as Zod. User:Iamzodyourzodeveryzod Boo yah.

Eh this is pointless. You forgot, however, to compare me to Hitler in a 5 paragraph essay. Work on it. Redwolf24 23:34, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I don't compare people to Hitler because that is pointless, because no one is like Hitler. You are an evil nazi, but you're not a Hitler-like evil nazi. User:Iamzodyourzodeveryzod

Yeah you do go with the more mature things like changing the Democratic logo with a swastika. Redwolf24 23:39, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

I know that's not mature. And anyway, that was my cousin, I went to the bathroom, and he got on for awhile and was being an idiot. So don't talk to me like I did anything for I am Zod and I can break you, so leave it.

Eh, you went to the bathroom for... half an hour. That's the time spent trolling my page plus the Swastika thing makes it even longer. Plus you signed with Oi VI. You're the same person. Redwolf24 23:48, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

You ignoramus! My cousin just did the hitler pictures and the swastikas and what not. I've been the one talking to you you imbecile. I can't believe that people that are stupid like you exist. It makes we want to start playing russian roulette with myself.

Greetings

I've been here for a little while, and I actually admin my own MediaWiki (which I probably shouldn't link, since it's rather dead as of late..) I just don't tend to edit much around these parts, being an empty-headed college kid. But thanks for the welcome just the same. ~ Aero Leviathan 23:14, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the basket of cookies, neighbor.

I saw your post on my talk page, thanks for dropping by. I'd like to start a grandiose speech about my dreams for Wikipedia and featured articles to be, but the Simpsons is on, and a quick look-over of your page shows you like most of the same things I do: serial killers and decent music. Good luck on your administrative dreams, and thanks for welcoming me.Robludwig 23:37, 14 July 2005 (UTC) After editing this 3 times, I realize it'll be a long while until I'm a decent Wikipedian.

Thank you for your message. I try to edit my writings so that it looks what I read here but I just can't understand how to get start it.

Sorry I wasn't here while you were being trolled; you know if I was, I would have been all over him. I'm glad El C blocked him for the time being; I know El C, so if the troll comes back, I'll ask El C to take him out. Hope to see you back soon! -- Essjay · Talk 03:52, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Kate's tool is back online; just checked you, and you're 111 away! I'm heading off for my sandbox to draft an RfA...

Oh, and by the way, my 2500th is coming up quick! -- Essjay · Talk 07:18, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Since we have somewhat of a tradition, I just dropped by to say you're #2500! -- Essjay · Talk 09:55, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Oh my, Red! I was going to go find you a (legal) lemming pic to cheer you up, but when I typed in "Lemming + public domain" on Yahoo!, what did I find? Check #9. ; - ) -- Essjay · Talk 11:01, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

I told you that lemming was in public domain :) I'm gonna lower my wikistress as soon as I reply to all of these messages!!Redwolf24 21:00, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

Deletion Principles

Red, I'm looking for some counsel on a page that I created and is now up for deletion. The page is EcoDuro and it is listed in the Company listing. My thought was to list it properly in the Company listing and to write about the Company as part of a set of Companies I'm going to discuss around sustainability, which I believe is a pretty large global issue and will only grow.

The questions I have is that someone wants to delete the page for "self promotion". I read the criteria for deletion and there is no "self promotion" deletion criteria. the only thing close is the Vanity Page discussion, which I do not think this page meets. I've made comments and I'll try recruiting others to my page, but since you were kind enough to leave me a message, I thought I would reach out to get your comments/thoughts.

I have a true desire to improve the wikipedia and have already added a number of articles that I hope are valuable (American Alpine Club, Participating Preferred Stock, NAICS Entries among others). I have a thought to expand the Company section using the NAICS codes and integrating it into the Companies section of Wikipedia. It turns out that all companies or their subsidiaries will fall under the NAICS codes created by the US Census bureau.

Thanks for any thoughts or comments.

Ridiculous. I voted keep and left a comment. Redwolf24 21:03, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
