It's not an . It's a joke!
SarkozyWhat do you mean you "haven't paid attention to the fact that categories were involved"? You were the person who inserted the categories, no-one else did, including Category:French Jews. Did your fingers just type in those categories without your noticing? Jayjg 02:37, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Look, you can't have it both ways. Either you were supporting the now-blocked tendentious new editor, or you were deliberately inserting those categories. Now, it looks to me like you were just supporting the blocked editor, by reverting for him. If I were you I'd just leave it at that. Jayjg 03:08, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Request your opinion on proper use of article Talk PagesThis is probably a borderline case and not a huge abuse but, since I started it, I may as well finish it. There is a perennial "Marvin was a hero" discussion over at Talk:Marvin Heemeyer. It comes up about once a month or so. I just recently deleted the latest incarnation with an edit summary warning that article talk pages are not to be used as a discussion forum per WP:NOT. Another editor reverted my deletion which I reverted back and he reverted yet again. It's obviously time to stop this since it is a nascent edit war. So, I seek your advice. Should this sort of discussion be allowed to take place on article Talk Pages? I admit that I've seen much worse abuse on other article Talk Pages. I guess part of the issue is the perennial and futile nature of this thread. Nobody will ever convince anybody and it really is unrelated to the editing of the article. What are your thoughts? --Richard 06:58, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
SAADIOn what ground have you reverted my changes in the Persian Poet SAADI? 207.253.110.64 02:50, 14 May 2007 (UTC) ThanksFayssalF, thank you for your kind words in support of my RfA. Please feel free to drop me a note any time if there is anything that I might be able to do for you. Pastordavid 16:00, 14 May 2007 (UTC) User:Funnypop12/User:Albertbrown80, User:DhanmondiHi Fayssal, I have two abusive users I'd like to bring to your attention.
DhanmondiDear Fayssal I got your message I am a new user so have to know many rules regarding editing wikipedia. But I think the link I put in Dr.Zakir Naiks article is completely right because I think wikipedia stands for non-bias information not for advertisenment for some people.In Dr.zakir naik page if you put his fan club link or link to his selling materials its ok but if you put any link which is critical against his view it is not ok what kind of regulation this is!.In wikipedia every kind of view should provided to its user. It will increase the acceptablity and popularity of wikipedia I suggest you please visit opus Deiin this site you will find that in the External links both kind of Sites supporting Opus Dei and Sites critical of Opus Dei are included so why editing Dr.zakir naiks biography should be different!!!!. If editing muslim or Islam relating articles need to follow different kinds of rules Please informed me . —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dhanmondi (talk • contribs) 06:11, 16 May 2007 (UTC).
The LTTE article is not based on good sourcesHi, I am trying to get some interest to the article about LTTE. The problem is that part of the article is not based on good sources and/or the sources are used for more than what they actually state when you read them. I have tried to work it out on the article's discussion page, alas in vain - as it in my opinion more or less has been taken over by one side in the conflict. I have also posted a message about it on the Village pump and I have placed a 100 USD bounty for anyone who put in some serious work on it. I passed by your userpage and thought I may give you a word about it as well. My critic of the current state of the article can be read on it's discussion page. Ulflarsen 09:35, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
My RfAThank you for participating in my RFA, which passed with 53-1-0. I will put myself into the various tasks of a administrator immediately, and if I make any mistakes, feel free to shout at me or smack me in my head.

To FayssalfRemember Mr Faysall you edit yourself lies in the talk of MDSAmerica against Myself when you said in French that I said you and this are what you said on this Talk Pages. This are easy to you to remove the evidences of your lies to help fabrice and MDSAmerica but fortunately and Daily the bailliff make copies of your pages. About Sh. Ali Khalifa Al-Sabah has been one of the powers for democratization and women's please look the CIAO Report the European Parlament reports the Llyods case with KOTC agains the Gentleme this are not from reliable sources Look also Irak Al Fawares withe the AlSAbah newspaper problems But You lie in talk pages when you said in French what you said against us § Explain to me Why you do this ?I just see this in your pages by a link from MDSAmerica to your site: Please review my comment. I think you were a bit too quick to act on MiFeinberg's word alone. -- Netsnipe ► 19:02, 24 April 2007 (UTC) MDS internationalBonjour, un investisseur arabe (Sh Ali khalifah al Sabah) a investit 3 millions de $ dans MDSi il y a quelques années. Un jour il a demandé à voir les comptes de la société. Comme nous avons refusé que cet arabe prétentieux se mêle de nos affaires, celui-ci a décidé de nous faire un procès aux USA. Maintenant, ils veulent mettre la décision de justice à notre encontre sur le site MDS international de Misplaced Pages et nous ne sommes pas d'accord. L'investisseur est également propriétaire de la société MDS america. Toutes ces personnes sont recherché par la CIA et la DST pour meurtres et détournement de fons. Concernant le logiciel Xingtech que le site xingtech.info nous accuse d'avoir piraté, nous n'avons fait que changer le nom pour le commercialiser sous notre nom. Comme nous sommes une société française, les américains ne viendrons pas nous chercher et nous poursuivre. --Jeanclauduc 19:39, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
adding www.torahforme.com link to Maimonidies articleRe: No big deals. I only have one concern. I am not an expert so if it is not directly related to Maimonides than please don't insert it. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up® 13:05, 15 May 2007 (UTC) The site has classes and oral reading of Maimonidies works, (so it is directly related) but doesn't have subpages, so it is impossible to tailor the URL to the relevant subpage - however anyone who comes to that page will see the classes and oral readings of Maimonidies text at first glance, is it still ok to post the link? Thank you Samson Ben-Manoach 01:09, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Your block of User:TechnoFayeWhile I don't condone physical threats, your timing on this is not very considerate. He wrote the threat on the 2nd, and it wasn't reported until the 15th. On top of that, the Arbitration was opened on the 13th, therefore your block may effectively prevent him from presenting any evidence. Just thought that I'd let you know the situation. - Penwhale | 07:41, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Ice CubeHey, you know about the facts in Ice Cube which i removed? I do it because it has happened same thing in Snoop Dogg, Nas, 50 Cent and i wanna have same way in Ice Cube too. Because the things are already written on the Ice Cube discography and i want that same way like Jay-Z, Nas and even Snoop Dogg has it. That's my reason to removing them and i told Mel Etetis about that. Football 7 14:31, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
KACI was wondering if you could do me a favor. I need someone to check my article King Armored Car to see if it could be raised to Start-Class Status. I noticed that you were the one who put the notice up on the talk page for the article, so I was wondering if you could check it out; it would be unethical for me to do it. --MKnight9989 14:37, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Ice Cubesorry i meant do not edit the Ice Cube discography but the main page Ice Cube. So keep the album covers etc... there! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Football 7 (talk • contribs) 18:38, 16 May 2007 (UTC). Ice CubeI'm a bit surprised to see you reverting perfectly correct edits to this article, which included removing copyright-violating images and bringing it into line with the WikiProjext and the MoS. What happened? --Mel Etitis (Talk) 21:47, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
The situation with regard to fair-use images of album covers, etc., is that they can be used only in articles on the albums, etc., not to illustrate articles on people, to pretty up discographies, etc. (in such cases they're simply copyvios). With regard to tables, the Music WikiProjects (and the MoS) use bulleted lists for things like track listings; there's a large number of editors whose interest (to put it mildly) is popular music of one kind or another, and who want to add every available bell and whistle to articles in that area, and who have no knowledge of or interest in Misplaced Pages style, guidelines or policy. They want everything to be in complex, often multi-coloured, tables, cramming in information that belongs (if anywhere) in doscographies or articles on the releases themselves. Football7 saw their work, and took it to be the standard, correct way of doing things; unlike most, when his edits were reverted and he discovered the true situation he adopted the correct approach — which is why having his edits reverted in the opposite direction must have been an unpleasant surprise for him. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 08:05, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Beer batteryI have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Beer battery, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the

Thanks for KACThanks for the pointers man. I'll do that real soon. --MKnight9989 12:19, 17 May 2007 (UTC) Advice on improving my edits
I've been working on understanding Misplaced Pages policies and have been trying to ensure that any edits I do have been both fully COI-disclosed and properly NPOV. I've also talked to all the MDSA people that have been doing edits. I'm not the boss so I can't order them, but I thought that there was good improvement. Obviously, from your comments, I see that you are still concerned about some of the edits by myself or my co-workers. Do you think you could make some suggestions or identify article edits you feel are inappropriate? Thanks. Bhimaji 13:33, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Your recent block of 76.109.17.236Please look more carefully at the logs and edit history. The refactored comment was one that this person posted, but when connected to the wrong network. He changed the posting IP because he wanted to avoid confusion. If you look here: you can see that he has signed his comments with his primary IP when he's been using his other IP address. I've suggested to him that he would be better off registering, but I can't force him to. Given that the offense happened 11 days ago, I'm surprised that the block is happening now, and is for 73 hours, as opposed to the block of 31 hours for User_talk:83.206.63.250, who has written extremely distasteful and insulting material.
