EHDI5YS

I declined EHDI5YS (talk · contribs · count) unblock request, though I did mention that it might be reasonable to petition for a non-indefinite duration. Just an FYI in case you want to comment on future unblock requests. OhNoitsJamie 18:31, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Could you comment on his second request?  Sandstein  21:53, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

I really don’t know EHDI5YS other then working with him on projects for, Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Orders, Decorations, and Medals of Authorized foreign decorations of the United States military, but after reading his statement. I can understand why he is blocked. On the same hand 67.163.17.113 was also in the wrong for calling anyone retarded. Also on the conflict between EHDI5YS and 207.246.181.26 both used poor chose of words. But 207.246.181.26 did also threatened EHDI5YS with bodily harm with the statement of: Also I would talk however I want to anyones face, and I honestly wish I was talking to you face to face. All three at one point were in wrong. Also he did write a statement of intent about future interaction with other editors, when he said that he should have remembered and upheld the policies and guidelines. I support him on the shorter block from wikipedia. (talk) 13:54, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

EHDI5YS deserves to be banned indefinitely from wikipedia. his actions, among the three users were the worst. 67.163.17.113 was warned for making that statement, 207.246.181.26 saying he wants to talk face to face isn't really a threat at all, and EHDI5YS's comments were by far the worst. EHDI5YS was the only one that made an actual threat (to 67.163.17.113), i support the indefinite block of EHDI5YS from wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.16.43.37 (talk) 17:27, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

block

Thank you for granting my request to unblock, but I must reiterate that even though you happen to think it wasn't negative BLP, myself and another editor had both reverted the edits because we both believed it was BLP, and when I checked the talk page of the article I saw that a similar edit was tried in 2006, but the edits were reverted because they, too, felt it was NBLP. Now even if all of us are wrong, and you are correct, all you had to do was leave me a note that you felt I was violating 3RR and I would've stopped. Being so quick to slap a block on an established editor with a perfectly clean record is precisely the kind of thing that turns people off to helping out on WikiPedia. shirulashem (talk) 22:32, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Best wishes for the holiday season

Ecoleetage (talk) is wishing you a Merry Christmas! This greeting (and season) promotes WikiLove and hopefully this note has made your day a little better. Spread the WikiLove by wishing another user a Merry Christmas, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past, a good friend, or just some random person. Don't eat yellow snow!

Spread the holiday cheer by adding {{subst:User:Flaming/MC2008}} to their talk page with a friendly message.

Thanks for the message on my talk page. Happy Christmas! Nomoskedasticity (talk) 06:56, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

jwh3 block

Any particular reason you just extended his block? If it's solely because he posted as on IP on my talk page expressing an intent to retire, I'd encourage you to rescind it: He's never coming back anyways, so it's not serving any purpose to give him more incentive to leave. Thanks, Jclemens (talk) 16:18, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

You're on the incidents board

See Misplaced Pages:ANI#Complain about Admin Toddst1. Thought you would want to know. J Milburn (talk) 12:25, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your assistance. It's been tough keeping track of all the user's changes, but I think I've cleared up all the issues. The edits may well be true, but no proof has been provided, and due to their controversial nature they had to be undone. I'm not sure what else to do to try and bring the user into the project fold. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 19:39, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

No problem. Toddst1 (talk) 19:40, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

User:76.30.202.149

Hey Toddst1. :) User:76.30.202.149, whom you blocked, is requesting unblock. He points out that he wasn't aware of the 3RR and that 55 hours are far too long. Perhaps you could comment on the talk page. Best wishes, — Aitias // discussion 22:17, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Just finished leaving the editor a note as you wrote this. Toddst1 (talk) 22:18, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Todd, you recently blocked this anon for 3RR. You may also want to have a look at - this is an ongoing thing, and the IP socking never ends with this guy... --Kaini (talk) 01:53, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

RE: RMHED

Replied. — Aitias // discussion 04:52, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Hi and thanks for the welcome! Not sure how I'll best use my account yet, but the whole thing has certainly led me to spending hours on reading several WP guidelines and discussions! Looking forward to making my own small contribution to the project. Happy New Year! :) Antiouk (talk) 14:36, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

I have sent you one. — Aitias // discussion 07:57, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Committed identity

Hi there. I've setup the committed identity feature on my account, but have forgotten what the string actually was.

I've created a new string, but the identity page is sysop edit only (User:Chrisch/hash). As you can see, I still have control of my account, and was just wondering if you can update the string on that page for me, to:

130d3cd14e0d9026cfe1c5a0331f7581473b8d67a743f1871894cafddddcab846a5cb0eaee821dc27d4f392ccced58aad456d901add9a2050ab7020330ff3da5

(SHA-512).

If you need to email me etc for further verification, feel free to :)

Chrisch 09:29, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Are you aware of any admins who are familiar with this feature, who would be able to make the change being informed on the feature? :)

I think your point is fair. I've moved findagrave.com to an external link. Xn4 (talk) 09:34, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Andrew Princz

Hello, I noticed you were working on this page, and with the editor. Is he following the steps correctly for copyright permission? It seems as if he should be applying a tag to the talk page of the article. I never worked with that situation before, so I'm not sure. Thanks. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 16:44, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

It looks like he or she might be trying, but not succeeding in following the instructions. I had initially blocked the editor, then upon further investigation unblocked per Wp:AGF. Either way removing problem templates such as this is unacceptable. Toddst1 (talk) 17:10, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the follow-up. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 17:12, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

RE: Thanks

Thank you, Toddst1. I wish you all the very best for the new year and also look forward to working with you! Best wishes, — Aitias // discussion 01:58, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
