Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 06:52, 7 January 2007

I'm sorry I've been unable to reply to a lot of people's requests for help, etc. on IRC and elsewhere these past few weeks. I'm not ignoring you—unfortunately, I'm busy in real life, and will be unable to deal with anything but the most trivial tasks for the next month or so. Please accept my sincere apologies for this. Wishing you a great holiday season, Tangotango 08:27, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

E-mail     Use IRC

Hello! I am currently on an indefinitely-long wikibreak for personal reasons. Although I may edit sporadically from time to time, messages left here will generally not be seen. If your query is about my RFA Bot, please send me an e-mail. (However, I do not plan to make any improvements to it.) If your query is about my edits on the English Misplaced Pages, please try to resolve it through other means. If your query is not about the English Misplaced Pages, or is about my toolserver tools or bots, please see my user talk page on Meta. Thank you, and happy editing! - Tangotango (talk)

Espernza member bot

Thanks for having Tangobot running the script at User:Tangotango/New members of Esperanza to report the new members of Esperanza; since Esperanza is no longer active, it won't need to do it anymore. Thanks for writing it up and having it done for so long! And I hope life gets less busy for you, and that you get a chance to relax. -- Natalya 19:07, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Pour toi

Hope your new year celebrations were better than expected (at least didn't suck as much as mine ;) ). A very crappy happy new year to you! --Srikeit 02:39, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

TemplateSearch

The templateSearch is complete, or close to it :) It's possible to add new templates, and search for them, but the search still uses WHERE LIKE for now, rather than MATCH. All errors should have been taken care of, but if you notice any, please let me know :) Bjelleklang - talk 11:31, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

User:The Blue Lion

Here's the evidence --

1. The Blue Lion uploaded (as now-deleted Image:HUNK.jpg) this exact image from EddieSegoura.com. In fact all eight of the (now-deleted) Voltron images he uploaded were from eddiesegoura.com, I think. Certainly ALLURA.jpg was this one, right down to the "arus@lava.net" watermark.
2. The edits have been deleted, but 66.108.223.59 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) -- who nearly self-identified as Eddie with his question on AN/I -- also messed around with the copyright tags on at least four of those same Voltron images.
3. In the middle of all his Voltron editing, The Blue Lion made this edit, removing a {{notability}} tag from Rainbow Shops. Rainbow Shops has been of great interest to Eddie lately, see WP:ANI#Exicornt_vandals.
4. A third supporting coincidence: Creating Category:Wikipedians who watch The Price is Right (And slamming somebody into it.) The Price Is Right is another long-time interest of EddieSegoura.

Taken altogether, it leaves no doubt. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 16:17, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Admin abuse

There is an administrator who has been blocking people indefinitly for minor infracrions. Is there any way to report this user?

The administrator is user:ohnoitsjamie. Hes blocked several of my accounts and I've received numerous reports from people I know in real life as well as in the wikipedia community who claim they have been blocked indefinitely without warning for extremely minor offenses (usually not even vandalism). If you try to discuss any blocks from a new account, he blocks you indefinitly.
