Reporting to users listing on WP:AIV

I'm really interested in your reporting to users that they are listed on WP:AIV. Are you just doing that manually, or is it a bot (it might actually make sense to have a bot do that)? Don't you think that that is inviting vandalism to WP:AIV? Regards, Alphachimp 04:41, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm doing it manually. The reason I do it is I believe that every person should have a chance, if they wish, to defend themselves. At the moment, WP:AIV is one-sided (the RC report what they want to report, and the "vandals" don't get a chance to explain their actions).  Killfest2  04:42, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I think it's a good idea, but I'm really concerned about it attracting vandalism to AIV. You should put in a bot request to have someone do it for you. Alphachimp 04:46, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

This message is to alert you to the fact that you have been reported to the Administrator Intervention against Vandalism (AIV) page so that your case can be reviewed by an Administrator. They may then impose a block for a period of time on your IP to prevent you from vandalising in the future. If you wish to contest the merits of the report, please post it under the actual report on the AIV page. Do not remove the initial report, as this will probably not help you in trying to prove you are not a vandal.

I'm hoping the "Do not remove the initial report, as this will probably not help you in trying to prove you are not a vandal." will deter them.  Killfest2  04:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Maybe. It's a good thought. What do other editors think? Alphachimp 04:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I only started using it about 20mins ago. Most probably haven't seen it yet :P  Killfest2  04:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Hmm. So what do you think about getting a bot to do it? Alphachimp 04:57, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, it'd save me doing it. How hard would it be to program a bot to say that if someone reports a vandal to the AIV page, post this warning on their talk page? I have absolutely no idea on how to program bots, so I'm in the dark on this one.  Killfest2  04:59, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

It would be incredibly easy. All one has to do is look over WP:AIV, visit the talk page, and post your template. That's not to say I personally could do it, but there are a lot of bot programmers that could. I'm not sure that they would though. Do you want me to put in the request for you? I always hate to see editors doing bot-type work manually. Alphachimp 05:03, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Sure, if you could put in a request for a bot, that'd be great. The link is User:Daniel.Bryant/AIV, so the template link would be {{subst:User:Daniel.Bryant/AIV}} Cheers!,  Killfest2  05:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I've been thinking about it. I don't think that it's worth the server load of having a bot constantly monitoring WP:AIV. That being said, you are more than welcome to request the bot yourself, here. I'm going to stop monitoring this talk page. Regards, Alphachimp 03:56, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

I just requested it (as you already know, since you just reponded to it). Thanks for all your help, and by the way, do you like my new userpage layout? Killfest2 05:24, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

My RfA thanks

Hello Daniel, and thank you for your support at my Request for Adminship, which succeeded with an overwhelming final count of (105/2/0). I was very pleased with the outpouring of kind words from the community that has now entrusted me with these tools, from the classroom, the lesson in human psychology and the international resource known as Misplaced Pages. The 💕. Please feel free to leave me plenty of requests, monitor my actions (through the admin desk on my userpage) and, if you find yourself in the mood, listen to some of what I do in real life. In any case, keep up the great work and have a fabulous day. Grandmasterka 06:29, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Same here!

		Thanks for contributing to my successful RfA!
		To the people who have supported my request: I appreciate the show of confidence in me and I hope I live up to your expectations! To the people who opposed the request: I'm certainly not ignoring the constructive criticism and advice you've offered. I thank you as well! ♥! ~Kylu (u|t) 07:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I really appreciate the support! :D ~Kylu (u|t) 07:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar For your magnificent work in adding information to the Central Coast Mariners FC page Boltonfan22 08:13, 19 July 2006 (UTC)Boltonfan22

Thanks! That is the article I really want to get up to Featured status, so this is just the beginning. Thanks again!  Killfest2  08:56, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Like it?

umm no! hehe :D Im really not sure about all that yellow, maybe a nice light blue? IMO it looked better before...

I assume from your edit comment you want comments.. if not disregard!-- Errant(formerly tmorton166) 12:40, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I do want comments, thanks for that. I guess, it might look nicer if I had simply different shades of blue...hmmm. I'll see what I can do.  Killfest2  12:42, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

There. Made it all shades of that cool blue colour.  Killfest2  13:10, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Much Better, the blue is much easier on the eye :D -- Errant(formerly tmorton166) 13:14, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank You

I know the benefits of being a logged in user. I used to be one a long time ago. I don't have time make the same kind of contributions that I used to. But I can still rv vandals, spam trolls, POV and superfluity perveyors as an anon so I am content with that. I also know that...as an anon...my own edits come under a little bit more scrutiny...and that's OK by me. If I make a mistake I want someone to catch it and let me know so I won't do it again. Thanks for the kind words and have a nice day! 216.21.150.44 01:52, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

No problems. Keep up the great work! Killfest2 01:53, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Your user page

I like it. :) Wikibout-Talk to me! 16:17, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Awesome. Killfest2 01:27, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Nice User Page!

Very nice for a 16-year old :) And lol at the you-know-who comment. There is a suttle difference between the usernames, hopefully you haven't been incorrectly blammed too many times. :S glasnt 03:55, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! I've been blamed only four times since last night, which is down on average... Killfest2 04:00, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to the Kindness Campaign!

Just my way of saying thanks to newcomers to the Kindness Campaign... a delicious home-baked chocolate chip cookie! Yum. :D  ♥ Kylu  (talk • contribs • email • logs • count)

Always nice to have new people help out! :D ~Kylu (u|t) 07:02, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

No problems. I need to make up for all my misdeeds previous to now somehow. Killfest2 07:03, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Please WP:AGF when running recent changes patrol

I was going through my watchlist and saw this vandalism revert and subsequent user warning message here. It doesn't look like vandalism and removing a duplicate listing of ranks is an improvement. I have reverted your change back to the previous version. BigDT 15:14, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
