Regarding Berwick, Ontario

hey stop giving me random messages about berwick I didn't write that story of the ringworm...so leave me alone and take your fancy editing and annoyance elsewhere

I told you I didn't write it, IP's change...I didn't even know Berwick ontario existed until now. \cheers, from British Columbia.

New userboxes

I have deleted a userbox template you recently created, as userboxes should no longer be created in templatespace per the terms of the German userbox solution. Here is the userbox code so that you can recreate the userbox in your userspace ("userfying") if you wish.

<div style="float:left;border:solid #{{#switch:{{{1|}}}|CSI=060|Miami=660|NY=006|666}} 1px;margin:1px;width:238px;">
<div style="float:left;border:solid #663300 1px;margin:1px">
{| cellspacing="0" style="width:238px;background:#F4C430"
| style="width:50px;height:50px;background:red;text-align:center; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: 180%" | ''']'''
| style="font-size:8pt;color:black;padding:4pt;line-height:1.25em" | This user watches a show about a ].
|}</div>

aight, I could see why you would come after me, but anyways the vandalism is reverted, so leave me alone, I'll get a new IP address soon enough anyways... Cheers from British Columbia

Your edit on 'train spotting'

I object to your edit of my contribution, good sir. If you look at http://orangecow.org/pythonet/sketches/camel.htm, you will see that that particular Python sketch is different from how it was summed up in the article. Please change it or rephrase it after seeing or reading this sketch. It is not nonsense. This time I am not playing around with you people, I wish to contribute. If you can forgive me, please look into the matter before calling it nonsense.

Please look at my link and you will see the inaccuracy of my original pop culture post.

My edit to Grand Theft Auto 2

Greetings. Regarding your revert and assertion of vandalism to my contribution to the article on Grand Theft Auto 2. I do not mind so much about the revert, and wouldn't have given it a second thought if it had simply been a revert - it wasn't critical information anyway, and I likely would have assumed it was simply due to space constraints or a personal decision about what is important or necessary and what is not. I do, however, wonder why it is considered vandalism or "nonsense" as you have described it. I have not defaced the article, nor have I inserted unrelated or offensive information, or deliberately made a bad-faith edit of any kind. I added a sentence to the description of a picture to more comprehensively illustrate (so I felt, at any rate) to any viewers thereof, the nature of the scene depicted. If you would be so kind as to cite a precedent for not adding minor amounts of relevant or at least harmlessly semi-relevant information to an article, or give your personal views on why this in particular was something that could not simply have been solved by a simple deletion of the added information, I would be very much grateful. If you do not feel this is necessary, or that your actions were self-evidently motivated, I will not bring this issue up again, as I do not see it as major, aside from the fact that I do prefer to at least have an idea what I have unwittingly done to harm an article, so that I may avoid doing so at some later point. Thank you for your time. 216.129.211.105 15:48, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

blocking User:83.26.24.55

You and I edit-conflicted on his talk page, and I had already blocked him. He had already been warned several times today, including a "last warning", and so I thought the entry-level {{bv}} template was somewhat misleading. (Especially the part that says "Welcome to Misplaced Pages" :-) ) Because he was already blocked at the time you left the warning, I figured it was better to remove it. Cheers, FreplySpang 16:50, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Edit reversion

Hello,

The edit I made which you referred to as nonsense is in fact correct information -- it can be verified by following the "Toplist" link included at the end of the wikipedia article.

Oh wow...sorry about that. I thought that was a joke. --Nishkid64 17:37, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

dumbass

i was there when it happened thats what started it

haha

now im going to make make your life hell

Erm...it took you 22 days to notice that I gave you a warning for posting nonsense on a Misplaced Pages article? O.o I'm so scared. What are you going to do? Spam my user talk page? hahaha... --Nishkid64 21:24, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!

Thanks so much for your kind words. I really appreciate them, as well as the barnstar.

Sorry about stealing your edits! I'm sure I'm not diminishing your abilities to help out the project, though. I've noticed you reporting a lot of vandals, so thanks for that on behalf of us other RC patrollers.

If you ever need help with a vandalbot or something, you know where to contact me. Thanks again! -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 00:40, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Deville's RfA

Important

Why did you change my additions that I added to the article on Venice. They were nothing but facts. WEENER!

It wasn't me. Look at the article history. I didn't even make any edits to the page. I was going to revert your spam, but Dina beat me out. Besides...you were just blanking pages and adding random nonsense. Those are not called facts. --Nishkid64 15:39, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Why did you revert me? 80.41.239.192 16:03, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

vandalism?

i was just reported for Vandalism on the Dream page for adding after the Torah (Known as the Old Testament in Christianity.) You might disagree with its place in the article but i think its fair.

The Torah is the same as the Old Testament? That's news to me. (I'm not Christian or Jewish) I thought you were vandalizing. Sorry about that! I'll remove the warning asap. --Nishkid64 00:18, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

er

Thanks, and it was partially my mistake, the Torah is onle the first 5 books of the Christian Old Testament

RFA thanks

Thanks for the welcome

Hi Nishkid64,

Thanks for the welcome to an anonymous user.. made me feel welcome. I'm actually quite familiar with Misplaced Pages, although I've been out of the loop for a while. Forgot the password to my named account (User:Kander) and no longer have access to the associated mail address, so I figured I'd go anonymous until I remember the password again :/. BTW: Your instructions on my talk page mention signing with tildes... is that recommended also when working anonymously?

Regards, --K

Thanks

Thanks Centurion 5 19:03, 26 August 2006 (UTC) Ok, will do. Centurion 5 19:07, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Admin

Thanks. BTW do you want to be admin? --Zhangshou 19:18, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Not at the moment, but maybe someday in the future.

Why do you ask?

--Nishkid64 19:21, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

I want to propose you now. --Zhangshou 19:22, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. We'll wait you then to become admin. See you. --Zhangshou 19:26, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the welcome!-PassionoftheDamon 20:48, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

STOP

Stop spamming

I'm not spamming. The program automatically adds "Welcome" twice for some reason, and that's why I deleted it. So, don't say I'm spamming, when I'm not. --Nishkid64 21:22, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Victor Willis Edit

Hi, I just attempted to enter a correction and somehow I mistakenly removed that very nice box. I did not intend to. Please accept my apology. Hopefully it can be fixed right away. Thanks. Victor is listed as a "dancer" he is not a dancer. I also attempted to add his additional occupation as "actor," because he's a former Broadway star. I would never vandalize anyone else's contribution. Again, please accept my apology. Thanks,

Oh wow...I'm terribly sorry about that. I actually was trying to welcome you to Misplaced Pages but I guess I pressed the wrong button. I actually should apologize to you, not you to me. --  Nishkid64   _Contribs  21:25, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Teke's RfA thanks

Thank you for your support of my RfA, which has passed with a final tally of 76/1/1. With this overwhelming show of support and approval I am honored to serve Misplaced Pages in the task charged to me and as outlined in my nomination. Happy editing to you! Teke 17:11, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Your signature

Your signature is rather huge and rather distracting. It also makes it difficult when one is editing. You may wish to go back to the previous version of your signature, which was somewhat less obtrusive. Please refer to the guidelines on "important considerations" about signatures. Thank you, happy editing. Agent 86 17:57, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Deleting "Consensus Science"

Thanks for the assist! As you may have guessed, I got a little confused (never tried to delete a page before).

Hope all's well. Dicksonlaprade 18:09, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip, Nishkid64!

I'll use the tag from now on. I noticed that you're 16 years old. So am I! -- P.B. Pilhet 19:53, 28 August 2006 (UTC), Newpage Patrol

Your signature

Is a bloody eye-sore! Catchpole 20:24, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

My poor eyes. It's the garish colour I object to. It's akin to a toddler scrawling in crayon across a textbook. Note this is purely my opinion. Catchpole 20:35, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

What's so bad about it is that it needs this amount of text:

<span style="border: 2px solid purple;">]''']'''</span>

Compared to a normal signature:

]

This is unnecessary server and download time, and makes it harder for other users to read through the edit box. Isn't that a bit inconsiderate?

Tyrenius 00:50, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Look, I just want to say that I'm not going to do anything about your sigs if you carry on using them, but I've seen the above objection raised by Tony Sidaway about another long sig. He just went to the settings and changed the code. My post is for information only. If you carry on using it, you might suddenly find it's vanished. If you want to be on the safe side, I guess you could raise the matter on WP:AN. Then if you get a consensus, you'll be rock solid. Tyrenius 16:08, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

It was most... eye-catching, that's for sure! I think you should have a display of your signatures on your user page. :) Tyrenius 21:03, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

"Passing" the Google Test

Please actually read Misplaced Pages:Google Test. It explains at length why one cannot say that something "passes" the Google Test without qualification. Counting Google hits is not research. Research involves actually reading the web pages that Google locates. A Google search is a research tool, not a measuring device. So don't count hits; cite sources. Uncle G 21:40, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

regarding article and warning

Perhaps I should've explained it the first time, but I was NOT trying to vandalize by adding a notiability tag to that article (and personally I fail to see why adding a notability tag to an article about a rather insignificant and obscure character from a game is considered vandalism anyway). Anyway, as implied above I feel the article does not merit encyclpedic merit. The only thing I want to say is that I think it was extremely rude of you to warn me like that, especially since I'm an unregistered user with little powers to reply in kind other than to type this message - which goes to show the elitism this place tends to have 24.9.10.235 02:12, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
