It occurred to me you might know the template - there used to be one, I think - for labeling "related IPs", as when an article is vandalized in exactly the same way two minutes after a vandal is blocked. (My last two or three blocks of vandals are an instance of this). I'm signing off for now, but if you know what the template is, can you let me know?

There's a warning template ({{uw-multipleIPs}}), but I can't remember a post-block template for IPs without an sockmaster account, sorry. Probably you're asking due to VHS/Camera/DVD/...-IPs — these look like dynamic IPs and will probably never be used by that person again, so the only effect of labeling them would be that the next users who get these IPs assigned could feel offended. --Oxymoron⁸³ 18:14, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-04-09T18:14:00.000Z","author":"Oxymoron83","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Oxymoron83-2008-04-09T18:14:00.000Z-Kaisershatner-2008-04-09T17:58:00.000Z","replies":["c-Kaisershatner-2008-04-09T21:19:00.000Z-Oxymoron83-2008-04-09T18:14:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Oxymoron"}}-->

I found only one report to AIV from you, which was successful? You can keep the comment as short as reasonable for these permanent vandals, it's unnecessary to gather the diffs, because it delays your report and lets the socks waste your time.

You can put {{db-self}} on a page when you are the only author of the whole content and want it deleted.

If you have a moment, I would like your opinion on this matter. Reading through the Adorno article, I came across this dab page, the existence of which is nonsensical to me. There are currently no articles for either the "Romanian book" nor for the piece of musci---both of which entries connect to their respective articles---so, why do we need a dab page? Minima Moralia should go directly to the Adorno book, since this is the most widely-known usage. Given that there are no other relevant entries, the dab page should be removed altogether, methinks.

You carried out a cut&paste move there instead of moving the page, what removed the original authors who are required by the GFDL for attribution. If you aren't able to move the page yourself like in this case, you have several possibilities:

• tag the target article with {{db-move|Minima Moralia (Adorno book)|reason}} or
• list the articles at WP:RM or
• you could have asked me as I already knew what you wanted to do ;)

Yes, that's correct. Some time ago, when I had no Chinese and Japanese fonts installed, all the interwiki links to pages in these languages were represented by squares on my PC. After installing the fonts, they show up correctly. The character which caused the "problem" on your browser is the En space (U+2002, more info). --Oxymoron⁸³ 19:58, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-05-01T19:58:00.000Z","author":"Oxymoron83","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Oxymoron83-2008-05-01T19:58:00.000Z-220.239.52.180-2008-05-01T13:28:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"Oxymoron"}}-->

Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.

If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help.

Hi, there's a registered user who vandalized this article a couple of days ago[2] I recently checked his contributions, and he has vandalized a few other pages as well. Judged by the fact that he repeatedly writes a singal word over and over when he vandalizes, do you think he could be the IP who wrote "WEINER" all over that user's talk page a while back?

The only correlation between those two seems to be the repeated use of signal words. During RC patrol, I sometimes encounter IPs which show similar behavior, but are from different geographic locations. Moreover, as the edits from the two users mentioned are more than a month away from each other, I don't think that those two are the same. But 65.220.101.2 was probably the same person who made the edits from 67.83.130.161 (likely school and home IP). --Oxymoron⁸³ 23:03, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-05-09T23:03:00.000Z","author":"Oxymoron83","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Oxymoron83-2008-05-09T23:03:00.000Z-Wilhelmina_Will-2008-05-09T22:33:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"Oxymoron"}}-->

Tune in to the bottom of the IOOF thread on my talk...

• But don't know why this became or I left as a redink... too much text juggling in too little time is best guess. But please connect the dots after speedy undelete.

• Alternative, is to take the main article to singular tense, automatically creating the redirect... but affecting a lot of articles. IMHO, the wrong thing here...
       (Contrary indicator: Category now matches the main article title... a good thing — which brings back restoring your speedy delete with proper fix.)
• Bottom line, lucky the wife didn't smack me as she brought me a hot plate of food whilst I was trying to close out the repair on IOOF... so I didn't catch it. As you can also infer from my talk, I'm not really happy with wikisociety these days anyway. Especially speedy D...
  • so why didn't you just fix it? Good editors fix, not rack up edit counts breaking things. Why didn't you check what links here?

Due to popular demand, HAU has a new look. Since the changes are so dramatic, I may have made some mistakes when translating the data. Please take a look at WP:HAU/EU and make sure your checkmarks are in the right place and feel free to add or remove some. There is a new feature, SoxBot V, a recently approved bot, automatically updates your online/offline status based on the length of time since your last edit. To allow SoxBot V to do this, you'll need to copy [[Category:Wikipedians who use StatusBot]] to your userpage. Obviously you are not required to add this to your userpage, however, without this, your status will always be "offline" at HAU. Thanks.

Hi, Oxymoron83; I think here we may have a disruptive user. Several days back, I created a redirect which an IP had suggested in AFC. Granted, they did not provide a source, but I didn't think that a redirect needs to be sourced (maybe I'm wrong on that). However, this user came onto my talk page, and warned me about "creating hoaxes" on Wikipedia, and even said I need to learn how to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. They then reverted themselves, and when I restored the message, they tried to remove it again. They appear to have bothered at least one other user, judged by their contributions. I don't know enough about the policies regarding IPs to know what this constitutes, but do you think the admins should keep their eyes peeled for this one or not? The ''Gorgeous Girl''!!!

hi, I'm User:Dalta, the above IP, my own, was blocked, the reason given was 'Vandalism'. I have never engaged in any vandalism on a Wikipedia or Wikimedia website. Not only that but I have barely edited any pages in the last few years. I would like to know what the specific reasons for this were, what vandalism did i engage in and when. Also, according to the Wikipedia:Appealing blocks page, there should be information given on the block template informing me how to unblock it, this was not provided. I will also be informing another administrator of these events. - User:Dalta —Preceding comment added by 83.70.239.21 (talk • contribs) 13:08, 31 May 2008

Hi, I just looked at the talk page of the IP, previously I was looking at the Dalta talk page. I can see now the vandalism, however, this is not me, I can assure you. I don't know the reasons, maybe it's a shared IP or something. Can anyone help me with this problem. If you look at the history of edits by 'Dalta', you'll see no malicious or vandalous edits. - User:Dalta —Preceding comment added by 83.70.239.21 (talk • contribs) 13:17, 31 May 2008

Looks like 193.120.116.128/25 is used by Hutchison 3G for their (mobile?) customers to access the internet using proxy servers, whereas 193.120.116.177 block log, 193.120.116.178 block log, 193.120.116.179 block log and193.120.116.180 block log are the only IPs used to access Wikipedia. As you can see, there is frequent vandalism from these IPs, what results in equally frequent blocks. Since you have an account, you can log in to edit and should not be affected by the IP block.

Hello yet again. I regretfully inform you that the bot we were using to update the user status at Wikipedia:Highly Active Users, SoxBot V, was blocked for its constant updating. With this bot out of operation, a patch is in the works. Until that patch is reviewed and accepted by the developers, some options have been presented to use as workarounds: 1) Qui monobook (not available in Internet Explorer); 2) User:Hersfold/StatusTemplate; 3) Manually updating User:StatusBot/Status/USERNAME; or 4) Not worry about it and wait for the patch to go through, which hopefully won't take long. If you have another method, you can use that, too. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

How do you plan on warning one specific 5th grader out of over 15,000 students + hundreds of staffers and teachers? I know for a fact that these warnings end up not reaching the vandal in question because, GUESS WHAT!!! I get them instead, as a heavy wikipedia user, I see the new message alerts and thus receive the warnings. The shared IP should be blocked from editing *because* of the continued and most certainly never ending vandalism that comes from it. Unless you know some secret to making sure every last person in the district never edits wikipedia unconstructively, the warnings will continue to go unheeded and ignored forever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carterhawk (talk • contribs) 19:25, 7 Jun 2008

Believe me, I've some experience with different types of IPs, and those you tagged aren't used by 15,000+ students at the same time. There's a realistic chance that the warning reaches the user who vandalized. And again, the IPs will not be blocked unless they vandalize, there are some students who want to edit constructively. Your edits would only discourage them.

Well, I thought I'd listed the article under the section of "requested moves", but may be ended up being a bit impatient, and manually moved the content (in spite of having some idea that one must not do that). But, I didn't know the disadvantage in doing that. But, having read your reply to one of the IP addresses that it's important that the original authors be credited for their work, and so the old history has to be merged with the new one, I realized my mistake was somewhat serious. And, reading the message above, I also realized it did cause you some trouble.

So, sorry on both the counts.

By the way, this was my first "move", so hoping to be more methodical the next time around.

Thanks for being extremely prompt, and for the warning on my talk page.

Regards.

recently on the UFO article, there seems to be the case of sockpuppets:

the admin User:Kwamikagami (aka kwami) seems to be the puppet master of User:ScienceApologist. they always agree with one another, always support one another, always protect one another and always use the same or very similair writing style. so i thought that maybe i can find another neutral admin who checks these two as kwami seems to abuse his admin rights to push the POV of SA and himself. if you feel uncomfortable doing so, please contact one of your admin colleagues and let them do the job. thx in advance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.84.19.26 (talk • contribs) 16:21, 10 Jun 2008

You have to make 10 edits to be able to move a page. But Richard Stone shouldn't redirect to Richard Stone (disambiguation), because it would be a Malplaced disambiguation page.

Eleven years ago The Ottawa Citizen published four consecutive Editorials in four days calling for the legalization of Cannabis. Calling the Editor to commend him for such bold action, it was suggested an article be submitted for payment if published on the Op-Ed page. On submission, the Editor said, "Now we're going to have to shit or get of the pot."

It was published as a Letter To The Editor with the heart and guts edited out so that no reader would have a clear perspective or understanding of the issue. If you're interested, you can read the article in the discussion here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Joseph_Cormier and maybe comment on the images in the article.

I'd advise you to think before you warn, since this is a dynamic IP address assigned by the ISP, and changes users every day. I never even visited (let alone edited) the said article, blocking this IP will only prevent those who can do genuine updates from contributing anything positive, in the event they were assigned this address. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.43.63.231 (talk • contribs) 12:52, 5 Jul 2008

Also dynamic IPs will be warned and are subject to a short-term block if they vandalize. It is highly unlikely that there's another editor who gets the same IP of this type assigned within e. g. an 8 hour block. The warnings were given more than 7 months ago, and they don't prevent you from contributing anything positive. If you want to avoid future confusion, you may create an account.

As you may know, the StatusBot responsible for maintaining the status of the Highly Active Users was taken offline. We now have a replacement in the Qui status system. This semi-automatic system will allow you to easily update your status page found at Special:Mypage/Status which the HAU page code is now designed to read from. If you are already using Qui (or a compatible system) - great! - no action is needed (other than remembering to update your status as necessary). If not, consider installing Qui. You can also manually update this status by changing the page text to online, offline, or busy. While it is not mandatory, the nature of HAU is that people are often seeking a quick answer from someone who is online and keeping our statuses up-to-date will assist with this. Note if you were previously using your /Status page as something other than a one-word status indicator, your HAU entry may have been set to "status=n" to correct display issues. Please clear this parameter if you change things to be "HAU compatible". Further questions can be raised at WT:HAU.

Thank you for clearing that up! The article has now been split again into the company DCC Doppelmayr Cable Car and the product CABLE Liner, the latter of which I did by copy-and-paste after another contributor deleted it from the company page. If you're striving for true-perfection, there was also one revision of User:Wikifox20 that said something like "Hello, I'm XYZ" from before the page was overloaded for drafting; ideally that could be fished out and restored.

I let this revision deleted, because according to the log Ultraexactzz deleted this revision. I desist from restoring this single revision with 4 words in it, since the user removed it himself afterwards, and if he wants to he can easily recreate it on his userpage.

On another note, you did a copyright violation yourself at CABLE Liner. One of the GFDL core contributor's right is the attribution of their contributions, at least the 5 main contributors have to mentioned. I did a null edit to the page trying to correct this. A proper correction without the loss of the content you contributed afterwards unfortunately isn't possible anymore due to the intermediate edit by Wikifox20's IP (registered to mail.doppelmayr.com in case you didn't notice), please make sure you don't forget to attribute the original authors with the first edit when you c&p content to another page in case a move isn't possible. --Oxymoron⁸³ 23:09, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-07-11T23:09:00.000Z","author":"Oxymoron83","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Oxymoron83-2008-07-11T23:09:00.000Z-Sladen-2008-07-11T13:27:00.000Z","replies":["c-Sladen-2008-07-12T01:29:00.000Z-Oxymoron83-2008-07-11T23:09:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Oxymoron"}}-->

Yup, there's also the Special:Contributions/DCConline identity, but I'll let that pass for the moment and it's the reason I haven't flagged anything up for copyvio yet.

It's currently not possible at en.Wikipedia to duplicate article histories. If there are only few authors and they fit into the edit summary (as in the case above), you can mention them there. If there are more original authors, you can either

a) copy the relevant source page history to the article's talk page and permalink to it in the edit summary when you create the new page, or

The GFDL requires the attribution of the authors, at least the 5 main contributors have to mentioned. If you want to split content (where a move isn't possible) you can

a) copy the relevant source page history to the article's talk page and permalink to it in the edit summary when you create the new page, or

b) create a subpage with that history and link to it in the edit summary, or

c) copy the relevant history together with the content to the new article and state in the edit summary that the original authors can be found there (example, please scroll down) --Oxymoron⁸³ 11:03, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-07-13T11:03:00.000Z","author":"Oxymoron83","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Oxymoron83-2008-07-13T11:03:00.000Z-VWphaetonfan-2008-07-13T10:59:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"Oxymoron"}}-->

Hello Albinoblackrabbit, we have some notability guidelines which your web page doesn't meet.

What happened? Why the hell has this been moved to an incorrect page name, and why was there no attempt at discussion beforehand? If you're not familiar with the meaning and spelling of "fuze", please check before moving pages.

There was a cut&paste page move that had to be repaired. Since the move was requested and there are more GHits for "proximity fuse" than for "proximity fuze" I decided to merge the histories at proximity fuse, and expected the complaints at the same time, no matter at what title I had merged the histories. If you disagree, just move it back using the move button, the important thing is that the histories are merged now. Do you think you're using the right tone to resolve disagreements? --Oxymoron⁸³ 12:48, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-07-14T12:48:00.000Z","author":"Oxymoron83","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Oxymoron83-2008-07-14T12:48:00.000Z-Andy_Dingley-2008-07-14T09:06:00.000Z","replies":["c-Andy_Dingley-2008-07-14T12:56:00.000Z-Oxymoron83-2008-07-14T12:48:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Oxymoron"}}-->

Hello Ryan, we have some notability guidelines for people as an inclusion criterion.

Hello Nabel619, for some info on writing your first article, please see here. There are some notability guidlines as inclusion criteria for articles. Also you should avoid creating an article about yourself or an organisation/web site/etc. related to you (conflict of interest). If you want to test, you can use the sandbox or a subpage in your userspace, e.g. User:Nabel619/Test. If you have any questions, please let me know. --Oxymoron⁸³ 17:54, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-07-20T17:54:00.000Z","author":"Oxymoron83","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Oxymoron83-2008-07-20T17:54:00.000Z-sorry","replies":[],"displayName":"Oxymoron"}}-->

There are already articles about online and browser games, you can add content to the articles. If you want to write an article about a topic that doesn't match into one of the existing articles, best create a subpage in your userspace first and start the article there.
