Problem editor

Hi, Jj137. I wonder if you might be able to give some thoughts on User:Jimad (see also his talk page), particularly with respect to his persistently and long-running belligerent manner here? Thanks. —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 18:30, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Vandalism by Troll

Dear Jj137

This user continues blunt vandalism here [1], also here [2] and also removed vandalism warning from his talk page [3]. He also also investigated for sockpopetry [4]. He also vandalized my talk page [5]. He also is stalking other users and harassing them: [6] We need your help, I warned him on his talk page but he keeps removing the warning tag. Thanks a lot. Iberieli (talk) 22:16, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Questions

Hi, I noticed you were reverting vandalism, one of them I was going to but you beat me. I was wondering if you have any comments, questions, or suggestions.--RyRy5 talk 02:01, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Oops. I forgot to put in a word. Comments, ect. about my Adoption Program.--RyRy5 talk 02:04, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Publius Enigma

I am new here. I am just wondering what was wrong with my contribution to the article Publius Enigma in the possible solutions section and why was it removed? Thanks. 938HBOM (talk) 02:13, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi there. Part of that text looks OK, but we're trying to build a neutral encyclopedia here, not our opinions or look of things. Some of the content you added seemed to be your "thoughts" on something, if I am correct (see the last half-sentence for an example of what I'm talking about). Please tell me if I got that wrong. Thanks.   jj137 (talk) 02:19, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

HI jj137, I think you're right. I don't have any reference material except for the pictures, though, and the lyrics. I should have omitted the "I can only speculate" part. Thanks. Can I try again, or did I blow it? 938HBOM (talk) 04:13, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

BCAD

Hi! We're looking to finish the BCAD drive within the next few days. People do sign up and find themselves, for a variety of excellent reasons, unable to complete their range as quickly as they intended. I see you've done about a third of your range. Will you be able to finish it soon or may I allocate it to another editor as it is important we wrap this drive up before the main one starts mid-April-ish. If I don't hear within 24 hours, I'll assume that you have no objections. All the best,--ROGER DAVIES ^talk 07:29, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject College football April 2008 Newsletter (full contents)

The College football WikiProject Newsletter Issue V - April 2008
Project news This month is spring practice season for most college football teams. Be sure to update your team's season article and grab a few pictures if you're lucky enough to be on hand for a spring game. Remember, even the worst picture of all is better than the picture that wasn't taken. The number of College Football Good Articles being added to the project continues to grow. Nine new GAs were added in March, bringing the total of GAs produced this year to 29. At the current rate, the project will produce 116 GAs this year, nearly three times the number of GAs that were produced in the past two years. Keep up the great work! With all the new GAs and FAs produced by the project, reviewers and commenters are continuously needed. Keep an eye on the project talk page, WP:FAC and WP:GAC for new college football articles to review and comment upon. Even one suggestion or support message goes a long way toward helping create a new Featured or Good Article. Notre Dame Fighting Irish football under Tyrone Willingham and Skip Holtz need a Good Article review. A discussion is ongoing about the possibility of creating a master team list for Division 1-AA, Division 2, Division 3, and NAIA football teams. A discussion about article notability is ongoing on the project talk page. Editors are encouraged to participate.	From JKBrooks85 Welcome to the latest issue of the College football WikiProject newsletter! I hope that you're enjoying regular updates about the goings on of college football on Wikipedia, but if not, feel free to add your name to the "no delivery" section on the newsletter signup page. I encourage everyone to make regular visits to the College Football Portal and perhaps make it your Wikipedia entry page instead of using the Main Page as your gateway. Nominations for selected articles and pictures are always welcome, and can serve as a great way to show off that new article you just shepherded to Good Article status or the great picture you took the last time you were at a game. Comments and suggestions on improving the newsletter are always welcome, and help me improve it on a monthly basis. Keep contributing and editing, and don't hesitate to contact me or post on the College Football Wikiproject talk page if you need help or just want someone to look over your article.

Cone Type CVTs

Hi. User RC-0722 (who has adopted me) suggested I contact you regarding the original article for the Cone Type CVT. The original article is in Japanese. I would like to see it, to make sure my edition of that section is correct--or at least closer to what the author meant. Can you tell me where to look? --BudgieBirdChan0211 (talk) 15:09, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

User:Vfcgyxbycfvfx

According to a new policy change implemented on the 4th, you can not block confusing usernames without asking them to change it first and them ignoring the request. Instead they should be place in Wikipedia:Usernames for administrator attention/holding pen to be watched and checked on to see if they respond to the request, fail to respond and continue to edit anyways (thats where we block), or do not continue to edit (no need to block). This is an attempt to not bite the newbs. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 17:46, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Ok then. Thanks for telling me, I was unaware of that.   jj137 (talk) 17:54, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

No worries there bud, I just recently got yelled at for doing the same thing. I kind wish someone would have posted on AN or something. (There is a note about it in the UAA header if you are interested). Tiptoety ^talk 17:59, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

...Now I see it. Maybe they should have made it stand out a little more so that it can be more easily seen. It is hard to notice a simple addition to the template.   jj137 (talk) 19:10, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

I know, what the hell? Could they make it any smaller? Tiptoety ^talk 00:42, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Translations

OK, thanks. I understand. Some of these translations into other languages are only partial. For example, look at Spanish: only one paragraph. And in the original Japanese article, I find no mention of the Warko transmission. Thank you for your help. --BudgieBirdChan0211 (talk) 18:20, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

I understand. Your explanations have been complete and answered all my concerns about the concept of translations on Wikipedia. Thanks you for your patience! If I can ever be of help to you, please ask! Oh, and by the way, I read on your Talk that there is a problem with some user names being clumsy and long--like mine. I would like to change it.

I've undone this block that you did for a confusing username. I see you were unaware of the policy change but are aware now. But even beyond that, I can't see why this name is confusing - it's merely a foreign-looking but pronounceable name. Mangojuice^talk 18:52, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

List of Boston Celtics players

I was wondering if you could help out, as it will take a while getting all the stats + players. And in case you didn't already know - Milk's favorite Cookie 21:36, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

I was pretty much copying List of Minnesota Wild players. I was going to do it for the Red Sox, but by the time I finished that, well, I don't know if I would be living ;) - Milk's favorite Cookie 17:21, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your support in my RFA, that didn't quite make it and ended at 120/47/13. There was a ton of great advice there, that I'm going to go on. Maybe someday. If not, there are articles to write! Thanks for your support. Lawrence § t/e 17:59, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello Jj137. I noticed you approved me for AutoWikiBrowser but I think I will need help setting it up. Plese forgive me I am most certainly NOT a computer whiz; I just want to start setting up French canton articles. Editorofthewiki 12:06, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi. What exactly are you having problems with? If I know exactly where you are (i.e. problems downloading it, installing it, opening it, etc.) I'm sure I can help.   jj137 (talk) 17:10, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

First of all, how the heck do I download it? Editorofthewiki 17:41, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

I had known about that site, but I can't actually download it. Do you know of a site that has a direct download?

Good. I have it downloaded. How do I open it? Editorofthewiki 10:47, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi I was just stopping by. Asking someone for a barnstar is really not right. I have learned this in the pass. It also means you could be a Wikipedia:WikiGnome.--Ryan (talk) 06:38, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

RfA?

I had someone offer to nominate me for admin, and I was wondering what you thought of my chances of succeeding. My reason for asking this is that I don't want to waste the community's time with a dead-on-arrival RfA and possibly take a blow to my wikimood. I greatly appreciate your advice on this and I await your response. Thanks. Thingg^⊕⊗ 19:05, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

WP:MAVS Newsletter

The Dallas Mavericks WikiProject Newsletter
Volume 1, Issue 3 • April 20, 2008 • About the Project
News by Shruti14 As of 11 April 2008, the Mavs have clinched a playoffs berth in the 2008 playoffs. The Mavs are only one of two teams to have won 50 games each season for the past eight consecutive seasons, the other being the San Antonio Spurs. The Mavs enter the 2008 playoffs as the seventh seed, playing against the New Orleans Hornets in the First Round. Jason Kidd scores his 100th career triple-double in the final regular-season game against the New Orleans Hornets on 16 April 2008. The Mavs lose the first game of the 2008 NBA Playoffs to the Hornets on 19 April 2008 with a final score of 104-92. The Hornets lead the series 1-0.	Features by Shruti14 Dallas Mavericks Article of the Week: Jason Terry was selected by the Atlanta Hawks with the tenth overall pick in the 1999 Draft. His excellent performance earned him a spot on the NBA All-Rookie Team, becoming only the second Hawk to do so. Within a year, he became one of the team's best players and top scorers. The Mavs showed interest in making him a part of their team, and he was traded to the Mavs in 2004, just prior to the start of the season. A solid shooter and three-point shooter, Terry has become an integral part of the Mavs lineup. Historically, he has had mixed performance in the playoffs.	Collaboration of the Month by Shruti14 The collaboration voting and nominating continues. More nominations and votes are needed before a Collaboration of the Month can be selected - as of now, we have absolutely none. Please put votes or suggestions here.

Your helping out RyRy5

I think its great that admins like you can do something like setting up a pretend RFA and help out a fellow wikipedian that wants to become an admin like RyRy5. Im sure the user is in safe hands with all the users helping but a fellow admin doesn't believe its a worthwhile thing, the pretend RFA that is. Take a look here Of course RyRy5 must be prepared for comments like this and more, the real RFA can be a nightmare forever that you can never wake up from if there not ready for it.

From JKBrooks85 Welcome to the latest issue of the College football WikiProject newsletter! I hope that you're enjoying regular updates about the goings on of college football on Wikipedia, but if not, feel free to add your name to the "no delivery" section on the newsletter signup page. I encourage everyone to make regular visits to the College Football Portal and perhaps make it your Wikipedia entry page instead of using the Main Page as your gateway. Nominations for selected articles and pictures are always welcome, and can serve as a great way to show off that new article you just shepherded to Good Article status or the great picture you took the last time you were at a game. Comments and suggestions on improving the newsletter are always welcome, and help me improve it on a monthly basis. Keep contributing and editing, and don't hesitate to contact me or post on the College Football Wikiproject talk page if you need help or just want someone to look over your article.

Admin coaching

Jj137, you keep telling me you will be my admin coach but you have not yet actually began coaching. I understand that you are on a semi-wikibreak but my coaching subpage is at User:Editorofthewiki/Adminship. I'm not all to familiar with the admin coaching process and I just want to get back to working in the mainspace. Editorofthewiki^{review my edits here!} 20:06, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Jj, just to tell you, I quit my admin coaching a while ago, as I will not run anytime soon. Cheers.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 00:13, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

It is most certainly not a priority, and anyways I asked Nousernamesleft to be my coach too. Too bad they were also busy. :) Besides, I'm working to get Félix Houphouët-Boigny featured, and whenever you aren't as busy coach me. I understyand I probably shouldn't run for adminship in the next three months due to my block and my several problems with several users. I have totaly reformed, and perhaps I won't ask for admiship, instead focusing on editing and making more FAs and GAs (my current count is 1 FA, Lazare Ponticelli). Thanks for being willing to be my coach, and here is one of those stupid smile templates:

Editorofthewiki^{review my edits here!} has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend and remember :"All men are created equal, but ambition, or lack of it, soon separates them."
