Why?

Why was that photo deleted it wasn't a Copyyright vio.--Hornetman16 23:47, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

It was taken from a website that doesn't licence content under the GFDL licence. That makes it a copyright violation and deleteable per our G12 criteria. Please ensure you are fully familiar with image copyright before uploading further images. Nick 23:50, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and could you reduce the length of your signature, it's considerably longer than the comment you left. Thanks in advance. Nick 23:50, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Eventually any size sig will be longer than the comments left, so no.--Hornetman16 23:57, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

As long as you stop stealing photos, I suppose I can live with your signature. Nick 00:01, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Question

I am new and trying to figure this out. If I make edits that are stopped by a Bot and someting like this is shown.

"(cur) (last) 15:02, 3 August 2007 ClueBot (Talk | contribs) (14,365 bytes) (Reverting vandalism, by User:Codyryanyork (see here). If this is a mistake, report it. Thanks, ClueBot. (Bot)) (undo)"

What do I do to say no it my changes were good?

Reports can be left at User talk:ClueBot. Hope this helps. Nick 22:49, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Your user page

Why did you delete it? Melsaran (formerly Salaskаn) 05:19, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I was having a few days off. I'll get round to creating a new one when I've got a few minutes some day soon. Nick 10:46, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Heh, when I saw a red link in your sig I thought you left the project. Phew :-) Melsaran (formerly Salaskаn) 16:27, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

My edits?

How is this my fault? Jaranda (talk · contribs) is reverting me because he doesn't like the fact that I'm monitoring his edits, which isn't WP:WIKISTALK as he claims, as the reason for those edits being visible to the public is so people can monitor them. I'm making good faith edits and he's only reverting me because he wants to. He isn't even giving a reason for reverting me; he just wants to revert me. I'm giving a perfectly valid reason for why I re-reverted him, but that's not good enough for him. Jaranda is the one who is reverting me without a good reason, and you didn't even give him a freakin' warning. I don't think that's very fair. Ksy92003(talk) 19:43, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Jaranda isn't the person who made this astonishing threat on their talk page "...You have caused some problems in the past, so you're one of the users on my list of users whose edits I monitor constantly. When I look at your contributions and see that you make an edit that I don't agree with, one that I think isn't necessary, then I'm gonna revert it. Per WP:WIKISTALK, that's only an issue if the edits that I'm making are bothering you or preventing the progress of Misplaced Pages, neither of which I'm doing." . If you persist in editing with this attitude, then you will be blocked. Individual cases of edit warring will be dealt with as and when they are brought to the attention of myself or any other administrator and the parties involved dealt with as applicable.

Misplaced Pages:Requests for adminship/Elonka 2

Thank you for your support in my Request for Adminship. Unfortunately the nomination did not succeed, but please rest assured that I am still in full support of the Misplaced Pages project, and I'll try again in a few months! If you ever have any questions or suggestions for me, please don't hesitate to contact me. Best wishes, --Elonka 02:32, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks from Nancy

I see that you reverted vandalism on my user page earlier and wanted to thank you for dealing with it so swiftly. Much appreciated. • nancy • 15:47, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Many thanks

I also got the spam mail from Toggafasiognom today. I was just going to ask someone to disable his email :p -Nard 22:07, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Me, too. I was going to post on his talk page and ask what he was talking about. Apparently I oppose spoiler tags...so he spoiled the 7th Harry Potter book for me. Too bad I'd already read it. (^_^) ···日本穣 01:39, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Request for Clarification.

Hello,

My connection is somewhat poor, but I noticed that a few of the reports I submitted were removed. This happened in short order, and I had to check the logs to see the comments.

Perhaps, I incorrectly parsed your remarks, but it sounds like you threatened to block my account because of a difference in opinion on nominations some found questionable.

Is this correct? Feel free to reply on my talk page. --Aarktica 13:31, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

• Just so that I understand, did you threaten to block me? --Aarktica 15:24, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

• • Yes. Nick 15:25, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Civility

Please try to remain civil. This report was made in good faith. You shouldn't immediately start threatening with blocks when people are reporting a policy violation, but just didn't follow the exact procedure. Melsaran 22:06, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

If you have too much time on your hands, please instruct the user in question to cease biting the newcomers, rather than trolling my talk page. Thanks in advance. Nick 22:13, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
