Instructions for Archivers[edit]

  1. Distinguish between active and inactive requests. A good rule of thumb is: if the listing is over one month old, archive it.
  1. Add newly archived material to the top of the list, in date order from the date of the original listing. (Oldest on the bottom, newest on the top.) This way, users will not need to scroll past multiple years of archives to find the newest archive.
  1. If the user's talk link is still red, consider offering a welcome before archiving.

  • Having problems with my user talk page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Ian_Moyes - it says the database cannot find it and I should report it to an administrator. Problem is though, when I go to the administrator page none of the choices seem remotely appropriate. Could someone give me a hand getting my page back or reporting it to an administrator who can? Ian Moyes 10:55, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I responded on Ian's talk page. --Deathphoenix 14:57, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • I am a little bit confused over editing long articles. When I see that the article is longer than 32 kilobytes, I see that some of the article has been cut off. I'm choosing "edit this page", not editing individual sections. Can you please help me? Thanks. Oklonia 01:52, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Responded on user's talk page. Flcelloguy 00:48, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • I have no ability to tell whether I am vandalizing a page or adding information that may be useful. I have already made some edits, thankfully my idiocies were checked immediately. Could someone please put my IP on a watchlist to check on my edits make sure I don't do more stupid stuff? My IP is 183.92.190.255, and I am signed in as User:pookleblinky. (from 30 Nov 2004)
Responded on user's talk page. Flcelloguy 00:39, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • confused about searching: I wanted to look for all things to do with criticality, so I entered "critical" in the search box but ended up in an article on "critic" which has nothing to do with physics (I expected a list of entries like "critical point", "critical line", "critical phenomena", "criticality", "critical opalescence" etc.) Ar 14:29, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Press "search" instead of "go". See Wikipedia:Searching and Wikipedia:Go button. Angela. 22:27, Aug 11, 2004 (UTC)
Also, if you check back here, use Google or Yahoo search engines and enter "wikipedia AND term", where "term" is of course the thing you're interested in finding. WikiUser 16:27, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • on my talk page I got two people telling me how to sign - but apart from talk page entries, votes, etc., what else should one sign? Ar 14:29, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Talk pages, votes and the Village pump are the only places you need to sign (not articles). The tip about signing is just a standard greeting to newcomers, and is not meant to imply you have been doing it wrong. Angela. 22:27, Aug 11, 2004 (UTC)
  • Formatting: how do you deal with, e.g., commands in some computer language? Usually, those are put in monospaced font in publications, and I find texts without those distinctions barely readable. Ar 14:29, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
 Use one or more initial spaces to force monospace output, like I did in this reply.

(For actual indentation, you're supposed to use colons.) --Ardonik 05:10, Aug 10, 2004 (UTC)

You can also surround the text with <pre> tags
This is inside 
 pre tags
  for [[example]]
The difference is that lines with a space at the start will still process the wiki markup. Text inside pre tags will ignore it, which is why "example" above is not a link. Angela. 22:27, Aug 11, 2004 (UTC)

Nominations of Others[edit]

159.247.237.10[edit]

Is beginning to show a concerning pattern of edits. Their last few edits have been pure vandalisim, whole pages were replaced with less than witty joke pages (e.g., Bioalcohol ).

If you look at 159.247.237.10's history, the majority of his edits are pure vandalism. I only started on Wikipedia a little while ago, so I'm unsure about what the next step is-- does this guy's IP address get promoted to a "list of vandals" page? At what point is he blocked?

User:Agquarx[edit]

I don't mind being called clueless newbie, but blatant lies I do not like. You forgot to mention, that we are the sole reason the article aboot Teresa Salgueiro exists at all. I agree with your opinion on Poland and datapackets, although as (for now) citizen of Poland I do know better what is going on here. As for ego surfing, well...there are people who comprehend irony and those who do not, I guess...Is there an article with this title now? Maybe I will check, I wasted too much time ego surfing today anyway...

User:Gearle0521[edit]

  • One of User's first activities on Wikipedia was to move African American to African American -- U.S. Lexicon. He then began deleting content from the article, claiming it was racist. When the content was reverted and the move undone, he then tried to list African American for VfD. Claims that only minorities are "allowed" to edit articles about minorities. Has been blocked for 24 hours, but an anon editor made the same VfD listing, and the User will probably attempt to make the same changes when he comes back from vacation.

A VERY big Thank You to User:Uriber for the speedy revert, which (hopefully) proved to my class how pointless it is to vandalize the Wikipedia.

User:65.185.61.44[edit]

So far, a look into his contributions shows that the stuff added (mainly to fighting game articles) seems to have no basis in fact, and may in fact reflect their personal opinion. Some of their edits have even been since reverted.

63.229.217.138[edit]

(talk/contributions)

That user insists on adding large chunks of information concerning covers and tributes to the Kraftwerk group article. Thing is, the user is completely clueless (I hope) about the way Wikipedia works, and the way that info was added is surely not appropriate for the article. This is about to turn into a revert war, as the user refuses to aknowledge his mistakes, even after hearing about them (both via edit summaries and talk page). I suggest something to be done about this. – Kaonashi 18:52, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)

The Kraftwerk article has been temporary protected. Nico Demonte was not protected, but the reverts were reverted. The person's edits are far few inbetween, and I just don't see a need to block the IP just yet. -- AllyUnion (talk) 05:02, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

( 64.175.106.39 | talk | contributions) strange thread for Friedrich Jecklen

User:68.201.2.189[edit]

Made a series of strange edits to Al Gore, Anarcho-capitalism, Politics of American Samoa, and Abraham Lincoln, changing words like "reelect" and "cooperate" to "reëlect" and "coöperate".

These aren't necessarily inappropriate edits. The diaeresis, used to syllabify a word with two consecutive identical vowels, is archaic but is still valid grammar. -- Sensor 23:33, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)
But as you say, it's archaic, and so it shouldn't be in a modern English Wikipedia. cbr 00:06, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Odd articles unwikified. Erecandero deleted. Others might need cleanup.

Articles not wikified. Fx Travelers' diarrhea [1] and Arsenicosis [2] are directly copied from the web (no action taken by me). All edits I checked seem to be in good faith. Thue | talk 22:32, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)

User:64.107.133.125[edit]

Has less than ten edits, so most likely new. Some examples of worrisome edits:

  • Added ‘I am also a Mongoloid’ to User:Pumpie's userpage
  • Added ‘(However, recent empirical evidence strongly suggests that The Mole equals The Suck.)’ to The Mole
  • Changed ‘Wikipedia is a WikiWiki, which means that anyone can easily edit’ to ‘Wikipedia is a WikiWiki, which means that you're dumb and that anyone can easily edit’ on Wikipedia:How to edit a page (Subsequently reverted 64.107.133.125 himself/herself).
  • Something to keep in mind, because it could indicate a thought-pattern: ‘Everyone who reads this is a great big POO-POO’.

Some of the things done are pretty clearly out of line. Some things, such as edits to Wikipedia:How to edit a page, were reverted by the user himself/herself. Others are just random. We can explain it as well by ignorance as by malice, so we must assume ignorance. •→Iñgólemo←• 03:09, 2004 Oct 6 (UTC)

Various anons and new users from Horizons fan forums[edit]

Apparently the Horizons: Empires of Istaria article has been linked to on some fan forums, and is now getting an influx of edits from new and anonymous users. Many seem to misunderstand that Wikipedia is not a place to advertise or promote their favorite game. There have also been lots of vandals. I've also noticed that many have poor spelling and grammar. This article is going to need attention until the forum topics die, and I've already spent about 5 hours watching it. --Kukuman 23:27, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)

213.122.211.25, 81.131.200.99 and other anon IPs[edit]

I'm assuming this is the same clueless newbie, but someone is systematically overwriting all the individual car pages with new content. In same cases it looks valid content, albeit fairly non-NPOV, but it is destroying the existing content including the categories etc. I would say it is close to a vandalism attack because of the unseen damage it is doing 'under the rader' but I'll post here for now.

I have reverted Peugeot 205, Peugeot 307, Peugeot 405, Renault Laguna and VW Polo. Ford Focus and Toyota Yaris have also been hit, and probably all of 213.122.211.25's other contributions. There could be loads more too.

I need some help please to stop this. Could someone please take a look at this, starting with 213.122.211.2581.131.200.99 and the anon IPs that I've already had to revert (See my contribs.) [[User:Akadruid|akaDruid (Talk)]] 13:47, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)

65.95.5.103[edit]

It must be Anon Day somewhere in the English-speaking world. This individual is posting Eurythmics song-related substubs even as I speak and is surrounding the title in quotes. Left a couple of nice messages, but no answer yet. - Lucky 6.9 22:30, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)

68.218.224.16[edit]

Another brand new anon who's posted two articles related to The Wild Wild West. One is about Nina Gilbert, a character from a single episode called Night of the Steel Assassin which this fellow also wrote about. No answer from his talk page, and I've put the Gilbert article on VfD to see what kind of consensus we can reach. The Assassin article looks good. - Lucky 6.9 17:16, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)

202.59.128.7[edit]

198.234.210.2[edit]

User:198.234.210.2 has been wrecking havoc on wikipedia for over a week, and I don't know how to stop him. He has made "incorrections" to some pages (trying to fix grammar, while in effect ruining it), has created many awful stub pages - labeling none as stubs and containing horrible English and very little (if any) information, with zero wiki links in or out. He also flat-out vandalized some pages like Tom Brady, where he removed a lot of information (and later, another person corrected the page but in the process much of the information was lost!), added Enon to the list of important cities in Ohio, and who knows what else (It's too time consuming to follow his trail of destruction). Someone, please help me educate this person and correct what he has done :(

This isn't one user. It's an IP address used by User:Craigbutz's students. They are vocational students doing English. See the archieved discussion on the village pump for details. I just follow them round. Secretlondon 16:08, Jan 22, 2004 (UTC)

Let's keep an eye on this one... -- BCorr ¤ Брайен 21:40, 20 Nov 2003 (UTC)
    • blocked for vandalism / deliberate misspellings Daniel Quinlan 02:10, Nov 21, 2003 (UTC)
      • "Serious" contributions seem to be changing external links to Google to links to Dmoz. Most of these have not been reverted. Any comments? I'd think both should be retained where used, although I question the utility of linking to Google (or DMoz) at the end of an article? - Marshman 03:05, 21 Nov 2003 (UTC)
        • Those changes were coupled with inaccurate/bizarre comments and inline HTML comments with characteristic misspellings and grammar cutesies.

    • Why? Did you review the user's contributions? He's seems like an obvious and classic troll to me, even his non-reverted changes include intentionally misspelled comments, bizarre edit summaries, and his talk page comments are basically useless. Ed, please read this: http://www.angelfire.com/space/usenet/#four Daniel Quinlan 04:20, Nov 22, 2003 (UTC)
      • Please reblock. Very deliberate troll. The cost of tracking down his edits outweighs his contributions. silsor 04:23, Nov 22, 2003 (UTC)

  • No contributions since I unblocked. Please leave a note at user talk:Ed Poor if any more bizarre or useless edits come from this IP. If Daniel reblocks, I have no objection. If Silsor wants to become a sysop, go for it! :-) --Uncle Ed 16:38, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)

User:61.69.12.13[edit]

Severely changed Cockspur Rum. But I'm not sure whether it's vandalism or an extremely naive newbie. Also, another user 61.69.12.17 made weird edits a month or so ago; though not nearly as weird, the IPs are similar enough to make me suspicious. Any thoughts? (I'm reverting the edits BTW,so if anyone truly is curious, you can look at the history of this page.)
