Thank you for your report on Sunocap (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and you are encouraged to revert, warn and report inappropriate conduct. I have however declined to act on this report for the following reason:
Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. this is discouraged but not forbidden. You could contact him and explain to him how to contribute more effectively
The Guide to administrator intervention against vandalism might be a helpful read if you wish to improve your future reports. If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Cheers! -- lucasbfr talk 13:42, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Dear Jake, Are you reverting the 2 paragraphs in question (Re: Save Mart Supermarkets), because you are trying to retain the integrity of the Wikipedia content? This content is incorrect and goes so far as to be slanderous. It has been continually added/reverted by someone that is not identifying themselves (IP only). Can you let me know what your intentions are? Thanks. James (talk) 01:08, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
Fantastic! I misunderstood your intentions. I and serveral friends have been watching this page and trying to keep this erroneous, if not libelous, content out. Thanks very much! James (talk) 01:15, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing! —αἰτίας •discussion• 18:13, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I appreciate your help fighting vandalism on the Serial killer page. As you can imagine, the page is a magnet for vandals. I've had it semi-protected twice in the past few months, but the anonymous IPs immediately jump on it once the protection period ends. Cheers! momoricks (make my day) 00:50, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about the YouTube - I plead ignorance. However, if you view "The Money or the Gun Open Titles" on YouTube and check me out on IMD, you will see that I am the accredited film editor on this series, so I know what I'm talking about. Please reinstate my accurate revisions to The Money or the Gun wiki entry.

These links are for the public to gain knowledge into the most recent findings regarding the Jimmy Hoffa case. I believe it is unfair for Stephen J.

I did not commit vandalism. Vandalism is more akin to say deleting the whole page entirely or inserting random nonsense. Secondly, forums are not a source and so the section I've deleted is eligible for expunging since its backing is grounded in a forum but not any reputable sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.231.141.9 (talk) 04:12, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Don't template the regulars is always a good idea. I see you do good work speedying, and thanks for recognising that my sneeze-sex syndrome article unquestionably does not fit our speedy policy, having an impeccable secondary source that refs a primary source from the prestigious Royal Society of Medicine; indeed it doesn't even fit our afd requirements. One reason not to template regulars is that we do know the policies, and I would not create a stub if I did not feel it fitted with what is wanted in terms of new stubs, so thanks for your reverts.

I'm a bit taken back by finding this former article eliminated entirely, and the title re-routed to Antipredator adaptation, which title covers a much smaller field. I believe 82.16.1.141 may have been responsible. I don't think we have a consensus on this action, and in any event the Defence mechanism article (& its talk page) had some valuable content which should not be discarded. Therefore, I'm hoping you will look at the situation and take appropriate action. Macdonald-ross (talk) 13:54, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
The change I made to Anthony McCormack was reverted by yourself, as it appears to be unconstructive. I believe that the article is extremely inaccurate and the sources are disputable.

Hi Jake,
I came up with an idea for an educational game using Wikipedia to teach kids (and adults) about how different encyclopedia entries may be linked and how to navigate around Wikipedia by using the wikilinks.
I submitted an entry but it got auto-deleted. I tried to add the {{hang on}} tag, but I'm not sure if it worked.
Can you please advise - was this a bad idea/use of Wikipedia?
Thanks,

The song "Hush" was not "written" by Deep Purple. In fact, they are the second artist to record a cover of that song! (The first one was Billy Joe Royal) The song was written by Joe South.

Hello,
I am very sorry to this result. However, I have just made an account on Wikipedia-- and are not that familiar with these sort of guidelines (Yes, I have read the beginners section) I am shocked by your warnings towards me; even though I have presented thus, evidence of the truth.
Such as? I would like you and me to agree upon this conflict between Greater and Metro Vancouver Personally , I would go with both because the district still uses Greater Vancouver in the water and plumage systems ; Environment Canada still uses Greater Vancouver in Watches and Warnings, etc. I would also go with Metro Vancouver 50% because it is metropolitan , but who doesn't know that Vancouver's a populous city? Everyone knows Toronto is a metropolitan city, and it still uses GTA [Greater Toronto Area]
Hopefully you can agree upon with me ;
I am just fixing up some sentence flaws, I am unclear of how this is called Vandalism [Yes again, I have read through the guidelines, however to this myself I am unclear]
PS.
The Picture about Arbutus Ridge is looking upon Downtown Vancouver ;
to be more specific.
Thank you in regards; Please talk to me if you have any concerns or questions.
Thank you the most
sincerely. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Iiarecooll (talk • contribs) 03:24, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

You are very kind; and thank you Happy Holidays
but although, I need some help.
Personally, about the Metro and Greater Vancouver thing I really want to do something about it; (i have been changing some sentence structure but) however I keep on getting the vandalized message.
Should I go to the controversial page site?

The statements I have added to the criticism section on the Robert Beckford page are to balance fair and reasonable. No academic criticism hads been cited and no vandalism has been commited.

It is not "point of view" to emphasise the lack of cited academic criticism in the criticism section of an article about an academic, rather balancing out the truth more fairly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.235.178.44 (talk) 12:48, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks a bundle for reverting this edit to my talkpage. Man, it's amazing how persistant some of these vandals are. After you intercepted that message, Ray johanson posted two more times. It was kind of funny to see my own talk page on huggle. AND to not be the one to revert and warn. Nice userboxes, too.. I might use a couple. (Especially the Vandalism Information one)
After checking out your edits, I have to wonder exactly who disputes your awesomeness. I'd assume it's the vandals.

Your reversal of my deletion of the notability question of the Voyager episode Child's Play seems to indicate you can have even more fun by naming all the other Voyager episodes as not notable enough for WP. In other words, since WP carries all Voyager episodes as articles, either you should mark all of them as not notable or reinstate my deletion. Please note that I indicated the purpose of my deletion clearly in the history, as -notability. Please also verify the WP stub line before deleting edits next time, to see the context. Thanks. 99.145.106.177 (talk) 07:05, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

My deletion of the redirect for AM Radio (band) is because the redirect does not have anything to do with the music group AM Radio. I also deleted the link from the main AM radio article. I think the optimal thing would be to make a disambiguation page with the main meaning, the Everclear song, and the rock band, but I do not know how to do this myself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.240.193.78 (talk) 21:45, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
Jake, Silly question, but how does one upload text onto wikipedia, or at least submit text for consideration?
I think the re-addition of details about CarbonCounted's carbon labelling initiative is as valid as the Carbon Trust details in this definition. We are both not-for-profits and we are both doing similar work. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carboncountedsteve (talk • contribs) 21:31, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Yes, but Carbon Trust likely posted their own promotional details as well. Perhaps theirs should be deleted? Neither company is making any money from their efforts, so I think they should both be there in the definition of a carbon label. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carboncountedsteve (talk • contribs) 21:43, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Fair enough. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks for your guidance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carboncountedsteve (talk • contribs) 22:04, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Sure - in the Carbon Footprint definition there is a section covering Carbon Labelling. Currently there are two major not-for-profits working on carbon labelling globally, The Carbon Trust and CarbonCounted. We are not competitors and are both working to enable carbon labelling. However, if you believe that a post of details about CarbonCounted is a COI, then the post that The Carbon Trust put in should be removed as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carboncountedsteve (talk • contribs) 22:11, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Hi,
I wasn't vandalizing the Skiing page. There is a great deal of duplicated information in the "types of skiing" section that should be moved to the appropriate pages, then linked back. That's what I was doing. I also removed some ridiculous inaccuracies, like the bit about backcountry skiers primarily using helicopters. Huh?
It needs to be cleaned up. You do it if you can't stand seeing me take care of it.

User:Aude has offered to put together the technology report for the coming edition, but she might appreciate some help since there has been so much development since the last report.

I did not by any means intend to add any unconstructive editing on the NFD page, I know the NFD band members personally and just noticed that it says "for live gigs we bring in Steve Carey" yet Steve who is a friend of mine still, left the band last year so i thought to just update it to the new guitarist James Mcilroy.

Thank you for speaking up. I am involved in an editing war. I am a former professional colleague of Roberta Baskin and someone is out to trash her. This is particularly serious as she is job searching and the wikipedia entry that is being posted is inflammatory. This other person does not listen to reason and judging by his history (he's been out to trash her for several months) he's been warned and sanctioned by wikipedia before. I am all for third party mediation. Please tell me how to proceed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Waldoggy (talk • contribs) 03:04, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

I object to the reference of WJLA-TV as a "Gotcha" journalism group. WJLA has no association with the referred to defamation lawsuit referred that was filed, and then withdrawn, in 1994.

hello you have taken away my comments on social liberalism as you deem them unconstructive I think I have raised some very valid points that are clearly articulated, I will post them below and unless you can explain what you think is wrong with them I think its unfair you delete them
best regards

This page seems riddled with contradictions,
It states that "social liberalism"'s economic foundations were laid by John Maynard Keynes But that social liberals are opposed to free trade an globalisation. How can those two statements be reconciled?
Keynesian economics are strongly in favour of free trade
Keynesian and classical economics are essentially the same when it comes to macro-economics but differ on micro-economics —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.54.106.121 (talk) 19:31, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
"Classical liberals such as Robert Nozick, Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich Hayek"
Surely these people are considered libertarians, more than classical liberals?
There are key differences between classical liberals and libertarians a classical liberal would support government ownership of roads paid for by taxes a libertarian would support private roads paid for by tolls
His "Principles of Political Economy" is the definitive text on classical economics. This is a man who considered progressive taxation slightly immoral. Even Adam Smith the exalted high guru of capitalism supported progressive taxation.
There is absolutely no mention here of how this movement fits in with the Liberal International or the Oxford Manifesto. Certainly the opposition of social liberals to free trade would be add odds with both the liberal manifesto of 1948 and the liberal international.
The article states that social liberals are against the neoliberal policies of Margaret Thatcher. Margret Thatcher's policies involved the privatisation of utilities, transport and communications.
This is entirely in keeping with article II section 1 of the liberal manifesto
"The suppression of economic freedom must lead to the disappearance of political freedom. We oppose such suppression, whether brought about by State ownership or control or by private monopolies, cartels and trusts. We admit State ownership only for those undertakings which are beyond the scope of private enterprise or in which competition no longer plays its part"
Surely the deciding factor here must be state control of industry? Anyone who believes in state control of industry is not a liberal
Hi Jake. I disagree that my edit to the polygamy article was unconstructive. I deleted that section, because if you read it, it is basically a section listing several polygamists who have been arrested for sex with a minor. It has zero to do with polygamy in the US, which is the subject of the article. 163.1.146.123 (talk) 22:08, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
May you please delete the Gjokaj article. This person who keeps adding his own history is presenting with faulty information. His clan doesnt even come from the "TRIESHI" headline, which is where the Gjokaj headline is under. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gjokaja1 (talk • contribs) 22:14, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
Hiya! Just wanted to let you know that the "Blanked the page" edit I recently made was an unintentional error on my part. I only meant to delete my comments which had become irrelevant after I made a minor edit to the article; I didn't mean to delete the headers/tags. (Of course that's what you get with "select all", "delete" -- duh!)
I always go back and check my edits, but this time I guess the "bot" caught it before I did. Not a newbie but by no means a Wiki expert, I get a little annoyed when I get the "dummy" treatment: use the sandbox, etc. But certainly not your fault! (And yes I do use "preview" before "save", but everyone slips up now and again, especially when rushed.)
Thanks for your dedication Wikipedia! I doubt I'll ever become an administrator — too many obstinate knuckleheads out there which I simply do not have the patience for. :)

I don't know exactly why I stumbled across your userpage, but I feel compelled to tell you that it's pretty fantastic. I love the "Do something useful" part. Very cool. FaerieInGrey (talk) 06:33, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Regarding your reversion to Bird strike, you may wish to double check WP:TRIVIA, Whilst i am aware that this is contentious policy (I am editing logged out from my user account, as I mainly work on technical articles), lists of trivia such as references to indiana jones, a comedian's stand up routine and a probably fictional japanese dish, are not adding to the article in any way, and are trivia that cannot be integrated into the article in a meaningful manner.
Not all IP edits are vandalism :) (I believe its about 7%, see the straw poll page on your watchlist) 121.44.110.200 (talk) 13:41, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
My post regarding Malphas constitutes vandalism you say? Your words constitute discrimination. In what way is the truth "vandalism"? Nothing i said was in discrimination of anything, or in any way offensive to anyone. I am simply putting out the truth for people to see. Is this what you are afraid of perhaps? If you think i am wrong, do you have proof that what you are saying is right?

It looks like the Fezara article is full of junk. For example I do not believe that their national anthem mentions David Hasselhoff.
Also Masal Bugduv is a hoax / fictional footballer.
My guess is that everything after the first sentence can be deleted.
What would be an appropriate warning to place at the top?
Pnelnik (talk) 19:08, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
The edit I have made was constructive and by my opinion, right. The reason why I have removed the Grateful Dead songs is because.
1. It's unconfirmed, and shouldn't be in the confirmed songs section, or wikipedia alone.
2. The IGN source is missing, it was probably removed.--F-22 Raptor IV 19:53, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
I have a partial draft of the BRION tech report at User:Aude/Technology report. (sorry for not getting to this until Friday!) Anyway, I feel like it's been a slow tech news week and there's not so much to report. If you and/or User:X! can fill it in more so that there is enough for this week, that would be excellent. Otherwise, my suggestion is for BRION to take a week off.
As an alternative to the weekly tech report, I'm thinking we could run occasional tech stories. I had previously drafted something about mobile Wikipedia browsing and have that mostly complete now (except copyediting) at User:Aude/Mobile Wikipedia. This could run instead of or in addition to the usual tech report. Let me know what you think, and if you or User:X! want to take the lead for next week, that would be okay with me. --Aude (talk) 02:10, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
for the strong work on the Flagged Revisions story. One thing that helps make writing, and reading, major stories easier (and makes collaboration a lot easier) is to break the story into well-defined sections. Just something to keep in mind for next time. Cheers!--ragesoss (talk) 18:52, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
