Dear Armbrust, I inform you that Digirami has defined your admonition of 28 February 2012 as garbage and continues to delete it along with all the warnings of criticism he received, although it is strictly forbidden as it is considered vandalism. Also rejects any form of dialogue, remains immovable on its position. Thanks. Greetings.--93.56.241.95 (talk) 10:31, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
I've commented out your archiving of that section, as it seems to me to only be half done--while I did block the user for violating the topic ban, there is still an open question as to whether this should also cause the topic ban to be extended. I hope you don't mind; if your intention was that you felt no steps needed to be taken on the topic ban, could you explain why? Qwyrxian (talk) 13:31, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
Thank you! Armbrust, you're involved in so many things here... Deryck C. 11:23, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
Aye, I also thank you. I'd completely forgotten the date my rfa closed. Cheers! —DoRD (talk) 04:19, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
Wow - that had completely snuck up on me - I didn't even realize today was the anniversary! Thank you very much for the message, and, for that matter, for reminding me that today is the day! Hope all is well. Bobo. 00:10, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Please use the talk page there to tell what you want instead of using non-saying templates, to give everybody the chance to satisfy you. For me there is no place for an appropriate inline citation, so please tell us what you want and we will do it. --Florentyna (talk) 19:22, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Sorry about that - got confused as to the status of dab pages, which aren't really articles. Havet taken it to AfD. PamD 07:51, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I just wanted to leave a note that I'd commented on several of your recent nominations at WP:CFD/S. Kudos on your hard work with these sports categories! Cheers, -- Black Falcon (talk) 23:25, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
Sorry for the delay in replying to your comment at WP:CFD/S. I had off-wiki commitments these past two days and, as a result, was unable to respond. I appreciate your prompt action and have no objection, based on your reasoning, to the darts category being renamed. Best, and thanks, -- Black Falcon (talk) 02:21, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
Hello, I thought I responded to your concern well. All you said was "the same again", "the same again", "the same again." It seems you trying to avoid the issue. If you want the reference, click on the individual events. If you want precedence, I can point you towards the 2011 World Championships in Athletics article or the Athletics at the 2008 Summer Olympics article. As you can see, not every individual event is referenced. But if you click on the event, you will find the sources. The front results page is more of a guide to the real meat. If you have any questions, please ask. Philipmj24 (talk) 14:42, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
Do not warn me for reverting a sockpuppet. Darkness Shines (talk) 19:30, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
I will keep an eye on the spam link edits. Is there a guideline as to how many before it qualifies for semi-protection? It does seem unfair that electrical companies can advertise on Wikipedia. Also did you look at the questionable link that I did not remove? I don't know if the link has enough advertising in it to qualify for removal.

Just curious, why don't you move the category's content(parent categories, interwiki links, etc) before you move the pages, that way they will not be redlinks that you are moving to. Are you planning on eventually doing this, or what? Blake (Talk·Edits) 14:54, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi. Thanks for arranging the deletion review of the Thresher & Glenny article. I've had to create a new Wikipedia account as my old BePoWiki account didn't meet the username policy criteria. If you could keep me updated with progress of the deletion review I'd be very grateful. Thanks Vjdigital (talk) 13:52, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Please refrain from declining requests, or using the {{RFPP}} request until such time as you pass RFA. This template means the request is done and may be archived, which is not the case until an admin has evaluated it. Comments are welcome, decisions, using that template, however, are not really useful, and only make the admins spend more time checking the page, because requests that appear answered really are not. Thank you. Courcelles 00:04, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

I have to concur with Headbomb's request; the page move of B-type main sequence star to B-type main sequence made absolutely no sense and only introduces confusion for the reader. Please be more careful. Regards, RJH (talk) 18:51, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

The 2010 Auto Club 500 was a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race held on February 21, 2010 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. Contested over 250 laps, it was the second race of the 2010 Sprint Cup Series season. The race was won by Jimmie Johnson for the Hendrick Motorsports team. Kevin Harvick finished second, and Jeff Burton, who started fourteenth, clinched third. Pole position driver Jamie McMurray maintained his lead into the first corner, but Juan Pablo Montoya, who had started in the second position on the grid, took the lead before the first lap was over. Afterward, Johnson became the leader, and would eventually lead to the race high of 101 laps. During the final pit stops, Johnson was on pit lane as the caution flag came out. Burton, who led the race during Johnson's pit stop, did not pass Johnson to put him a lap down. Therefore, Johnson retained the first position upon the completion of his pit stop. On the final lap, Harvick was gaining on Johnson, but Johnson maintained his position to win his first race of the season. There were six caution flags and twenty-eight lead changes among fourteen different drivers throughout the course of the race. The result moved Johnson up twenty-three spots to tenth in the Drivers' Championship, 78 points behind of leader Kevin Harvick and one ahead of Kyle Busch. Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, eight points points ahead of Toyota and nine ahead of Ford, with thirty-four races remaining in the season.

{{help}} Could someone change "online" to "offline" in User:Armbrust/Topicon? Armbrust, B.Ed. Let's talkabout my edits? 14:45, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
The work you do is far more important than a block, so that is all you need to really consider. The other editors should have respected WP:BRD and not forced through changes to the snooker templates without the consensus of the snooker project, but when it's two against one then you're outnumbered and outgunned. The best thing to do in a situation like that is to post an RFC on the snooker page and get some input from other project members. Betty Logan (talk) 04:16, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
This section has gone stale. If you want to say anything on this topic, than just remove the templates at the top and bottom of the section and say it. Armbrust, B.Ed. Let's talkabout my edits? 18:40, 31 March 2012 (UTC) |

{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} , but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. --Chris (talk) 16:18, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.
Armbrust (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log)) Request reason: I agree to the unblock conditions offered by Crazycomputers, namely that I will not make any edit to the templates until the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Snooker#Template changes doesn't reached a consensus. Armbrust, B.Ed. Let's talkabout my edits? 4:01 pm, Today (UTC+5.5) Accept reason:
Well I just tried to reinstate a format, which was used on this templates for a very long time. It looks like this was not right. AFAIK edits need consensus on Wikipedia, and if there is not than they are reverted (which I did). Shouldn't this mean, that they shouldn't be done again? Should I have reported Frietjes after he again made the changes without consensus? Armbrust, B.Ed. Let's talkabout my edits? 11:54, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

As per the policies on the use of the rollback tool, I have been forced to remove your access to it due to multiple uses of the tool during edit-wars. The tool has specific uses, and unfortunately your recent actions have been contrary to the approved use.

Thanks to all of you for commenting on the NOINDEX RfC :). It's always great to be able to field questions like these to the community; it's genuinely the highlight of my work! The NOINDEX idea sprung from our New Page Triage discussion; we're developing a new patrolling interface for new articles, and we want your input like never before :). So if you haven't already seen it, please go there, take a look at the screenshots and mockups and ideas, and add any comments or suggestions you might have to the talkpage. Thanks!

We are over half way through the second round of this year's WikiCup and things are going well! Grapple X (submissions), of Pool B, is our highest overall scorer thanks to his prolific writings on television and film. In second place is Pool H's Cwmhiraeth (submissions), thanks primarily to work on biological articles, especially in marine biology and herpetology. Third place goes to Pool E's Casliber (submissions), who also writes primarily on biology (including ornithology and botany) and has already submitted two featured articles this round. Of the 63 contestants remaining, 15 (just under a quarter) have over 100 points this round. However, 25 are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly. 32 contestants, the top two from each pool and the 16 next-highest scorers, will advance to round 3.
Congratulations to Matthewedwards (submissions), whose impressive File:Wacht am Rhein map (Opaque).svg became the competition's first featured picture. Also, congratulations to 12george1 (submissions), who claimed good topic points, our first contestant this year to do so, for his work on Wikipedia:Featured topics/1982 Atlantic hurricane season. This leaves featured topics and featured portals as the only sources of points not yet utilised. However, as recent statistics from Miyagawa (submissions) show, no source has yet been utilised this competition to the same extent it has been previously!
It has been observed that the backlogs at good article candidates are building up again. While the points for good article reviews will be remaining constant, any help that can be offered keeping the backlog down would be appreciated. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hello, I noticed you have File mover rights. My goal is to evantually obtain these rights through good work.

Are you seriously suggesting that articles from the bbc or from the guardian are more reliable than YouTube footage of the actual event?

The other categories you listed would need to be moved too. Is the nature of your opposition merely procedural (failure to list the other categories), or should it go to CfD? -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 05:37, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I disagree with your revert. First, those players were officialy ranked, just look at the official rankings that are in notes (where I found them). So, it's wrong to remove them from the first revisions. By removing them, you just create an unofficial ranking that just shows your point of view, not the one from the WPSBA. Second, the rankings are made on two years, you can't remove someone just because he s not there now, Quinten Hann was still ranked even when he was banned, just look at Snooker world rankings 2005/2006. Moreover, your version is wrong, Liu Song isn't in the first revision even if he was playing in the main tour. Have a nice day. BIRDIE ✉ 16:11, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
