Welcome to Wikipedia![edit]

Hello TehBrandon/archive, welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed nobody had said hi yet... Hi!

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

You might like some of these links and tips:

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing!-- Alf melmac 23:42, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My Usertalk page[edit]

Thank you for reverting the vandlism on my talkpage. DXRAW 01:28, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Glen's Anti-Vandalism Barnstar!
Glen is thrilled to award TehBrandon with this small token of appreciation and acknowledgement for exceptional performance in the art of troll extermination, cruft elimination and for ensuring Wikipedia is safe for public consumption... You are a legend, please keep up the great work! Glen 00:29, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
PS; Just a wee word of advice, using edit summaries which call people names like "dick" or "retard" may encourage the vandals, and also breaches WP:NPA - I know they are vandals, but we all have to stay in line with policy. Otherwise keep up the great work! Glen 00:29, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about that, sometimes I just get a worked up, Thanks!

Chemical compound.[edit]

Hi, I saw you did a reverting edit on chemical compound, but in that way you reinstated the wrong version, actually removing a part of the text, and introducing some vandalism. I guess you clicked the wrong edit button and saved. I have repaired it now. See you around. --Dirk Beetstra T C 08:50, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, sorry about that and thanks for letting me know! TehBrandon 21:36, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

non admin rollback and warning tools[edit]

I have added these for you (per your IRC request). Can you please clear your cache (hit CTRL-R) and then when you see some vandalism use the RED revert link. This should open the vandals talk page and you should see an extra tab at the top next to history - see if that works :) Let me know if you like! Glen 13:18, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Noticed your editing your monobook - all okay? Glen 17:27, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I thought it wasn't working before I cleared my cache :P Thanks very much!

AntiVandalBot reverted to the wrong version...check the page history. No harm, no foul though. OscarTheCat3 23:13, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

THE WIKIPEDA IRC SPAM PROJECT IS RECRUITING NOW

WHY ME
Your recent request to use VandalProof software has been refused as you have too few edits to the English Wikipedia.
We need editors to look through recently edited pages and decide whether the links are spam or not.
If the link qualifies as spam, you will need to revert the page to remove the link and warn the 'spammer'.
This will increase your edit count and allow the VandalProof team to approve you in future !
In fact, the Wikipedia IRC Spam Project shares many VandalProof administrators and users.
HOW TO JOIN

  • 1. Install an IRC client.
    (ChatZilla, IceChat and X-Chat are free. X-Chat works on all platforms) - a full list is available here.
  • 2. Visit irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-spam
    This channel lists, in real time, all external links added to Wikipedia.
    Around 50% of the links listed are suspicious and need to be checked.
    We flag especially suspicious links in RED.
  • 3. Begin Checking Links
    Click on any diff (the Wikipedia URL) listed in the IRC channel to begin checking and reverting as necessary.
    If you revert, remember to place a spam warning {{subst:spam1}} → {{subst:spam4}}
    We need to be able to block persistent spammers just as we do persistent vandals.
  • Remember - If you need help or admin intervention visit irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-spam-t

POLICY Before you begin, please read WP:EL and WP:SPAM. These polices are the basis of spam fighting.

Best Wishes - The Wikipedia IRC Spam Project Team

erroneous perception of vandalism[edit]

a user changed the coding on his/her comments on whether or not to delete the article "political cult" Apparently this person had not known how to put in the bullet and the bold "Keep." Then came back and did it correctly. Why did you delete the person's change and allege vandalism? You should restore the coding and be more careful in the future.--Dking 21:02, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your VandalProof Application[edit]

Dear TehBrandon,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that Your edit count is too low. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.
