That's cool. I just couldn't figure out why you'd removed all that info since you didn't give an edit summary. Thanks for explaining. Best, --SouthernNights (talk) 01:48, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

I forgot to. Some users keep adding the content when there's nothing to support it yet.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 01:49, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Abuse of rollback

I have brought this up to you before about rollback. Rollback is not for reverting good faith edits. It's for reverting vandalism. Below is your recent rollbacks;

You cannot use rollback to revert edits that are in good faith and that you could have used the "undo" feature and provided a clear explanation to justify your revert. Such use of rollback is abusive per WP:ROLLBACK. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 20:07, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

It's not really of any use on the talk page and the templates needn't be interwikied.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:08, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Episode summaries

Thank you for cutting back on that summary that Fractyl wrote. He seems to do this for pretty much every series, and I warned him against the amount of content that he added. I know that there's a nice 48 summaries of Kiva and Go-onger that could need your eye for useless detail. :P—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:18, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

I'll take a look when I get some spare time. I have got to applaud you for your patience in dealing with Fractyl and Mythdon. I know I could never last under that much frustration and redundancy. Keep up the good work, don't let it get to you. =) Floria L (talk) 20:31, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

My interactions with Mythdon have appeared at AN right now (check two sections above this one). Maybe you could take a look and give some input on what you think of these two users.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:33, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi Ryulong

Hi Ryulong, thanks for your message. I know, I saw that you had commented on AN that you had acted on this IP because of a report on one of the noticeboards that they were signing everywhere as "intentionally unsigned". I agree that the IP's actions were disruptive; just think that the time served is adequate. Sorry about the grief you are getting on AN. It's almost inevitable that criticism will occur when one makes as many administrative actions as you do, despite best intentions. Best regards -- Samir 07:32, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Kamen Rider G

Should Kamen Rider G be mentioned somewhere on Misplaced Pages? I thought there was a small article of it but there wasn't after I searched. If you don't know what it is, it's a parody of the Kamen Rider series and I think it's to do with TV Asahi's 50th anniversary or something. I watched it today on YouTube, just to note. --Burai (talk) 21:17, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

It can be put on Kamen Rider Series somewhere.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 23:54, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, I've stuck it in the TV Specials of that article here. --Burai (talk) 08:54, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

about Kuuga stats.

what an arrogance you have, mr. admin. So you think i am posting a false information huh? just like many jackass do? it's because it was the correct stats number. Who said that Pegasus Form Punch is 7 tons? and Who said that Dragon Form kick is 7 tons? i've been searching through the google and find it out from here:http://maryu.sakura.ne.jp/hero/rider/rider15.htm. The old official site(www.tv-asahi.co.jp/Kuuga) that no longer online is also state that Dragon and Pegasus Kuuga have the same punching and kicking power, which is 1 tons and 3 tons, dude! if you want a more prove, why wouldn't you buy Kuuga's official guidebook or searching through the websites? i'm sure that i was the right, not you. Because i'm not lying. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Knight SV (talk • contribs) 19:56, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

I saw that the information we had was wrong, so I've fixed it.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 23:55, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk page protection.

Hey, I have no issues with you having your talk page being protected but how do you plan on having IPs be able to contact you? Maybe you could create a unprotected subpage? Tiptoety 06:01, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

I haven't really had any issues with IPs really needing to contact me lately.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:15, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

How would you know seeing as your talk page is protected? Tiptoety 15:15, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

*shrug*—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:32, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Hm...I was hoping that you would just create a subpage. I mean talk pages are here for the purpose of communication and when they are protected it totally defeats the purpose. I would be happy to create a subpage for you if you like, but I think simply shrugging and ignoring it is not the correct action to take. Tiptoety 20:42, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

I had one in the past, but I suppose that the page could just be unprotected. I rarely directly communicate with IP users, and if so, I try to make contact with them on their talk page and check my contributions.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 21:53, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

...So you are saying you do not feel it is important, so you will just keep your talk protected and have no way for IP's to contact you? Tiptoety 04:32, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

No. I'm saying I don't really care if this page is unprotected.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:25, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Oh, that makes it easy. :-) I went ahead and unprotected it. Thanks! Tiptoety 23:40, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Request for unprotect

Hi, would you mind unprotecting User talk:YourLord? You protected it in June 2007 because he, a recently blocked user, was using it as a bit of a chat forum. Since then he has been blocked for sockpuppeting twice (here and here) because he created new accounts as a means of getting around his block. Long story short, if he wishes to appeal to ANI or ArbCom he may need to do it via his original account's talk page (per WP:GAB), which he can't do since it's fully protected. Plus I think that protecting his talk page was what led him to sock in the first place, since it prevented him from being able to follow the instructions he'd been given on how to redeem himself (if he ever wished to follow them). In any case I think some idle chit-chat, however annoying, doesn't really necessitate a full-protect, nor is there a need for it to still be protected almost 2 years after the fact. --IllaZilla (talk) 22:48, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

If he's going to petition ANI or ArbCom, then the page can be unprotected. Other than that, I see no point.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 23:03, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, I noticed in WP:GAB#Sockpuppetry and Checkuser-based blocks that "Users confirmed or believed to have engaged in the practice must request unblock at their main account." I took that to mean that he would have to make the request from his original account, which he can't do if the talk page is full-protected. Although his account for the past year has been User:Jupiter Optimus Maximus, so I guess that would be considered his "main" account at this point. --IllaZilla (talk) 23:12, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Has he expressed that he wishes to be unblocked in either sockpuppet account usage?—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 23:44, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

He did post an unblock request at User talk:Jupiter Optimus Maximus#Request for unblock, but it was denied. In the conversation below the request he does express a desire to be unblocked and says he might pursue the ANI/ArbCom route. I've given him instructions on how to send an unblock request by email. --IllaZilla (talk) 00:10, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

He can contact the arbitration committee directly if he so wishes.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 01:06, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Regarding this

Hopefully, no one else will ask me anything there as I am do not really wish to say anything further as I don't believe the discussion is accomplishing anything at this point and so hopefully my final line about moving on and all will be correctly read as an "okay, time to move on." If you wish to DRV the articles, I will support that, if you are okay with the close, then, I'll move on as well as there's so much else to be done!  :) If that's the case, then have a nice night and I guess better luck in the future with these! Sincerely, --A Nobody 08:56, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

I don't really have any qualms with how things turned out. I have managed to get Mythdon to change his activities, which is a start.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 08:58, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Okay. Take care then! Best, --A Nobody 09:03, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

list of samurai sentai shinkenger episodes

why was 'list of samurai sentai shinkenger episodes' deleted? I didn't see a reason why it was deleted.Abomasnow (talk) 22:13, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Because there was nothing there and I should have labeled it as WP:CSD#A3.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:15, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

IP You Just Blocked

Problem users

Remember the vandal who used the IP addresses at 124.104.80.0/20? It seems he has returned, this time using a different range, vandalizing several articles, reverting several reverted edits and saying the opposite of what he did. Examples of the articles vandalized by this user are Regine Velasquez and its talk page and Greg Plitt. Here is the list of IPs the vandal used. There may be more.

• 124.104.17.141 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
• 124.104.24.209 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
• 124.104.20.74 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
• 124.104.19.218 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
• 124.104.19.115 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
• 124.104.20.179 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)

I originally posted these address on WP:AN/I, but was somehow moved to WP:SPI for a quick checkuser. The result was a supposed puppetmaster is found and blocked, but I was not satisfied. Can several rangeblocks be implemented or should I request protection first for the concerned articles that these users vandalized because I am equally concerned on them, even though I don't normally edit them. - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 02:48, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I've implimented a single range block that should cover these new users: 3 months on 124.104.16.0/21.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 04:25, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. I'll be watching the concerned articles as well as the other articles vandalized to see a possible evasion and therefore a possible widening of the block. But for now until I find the evasion, that will do. - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 04:36, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Fuuma no Koujiro

Regarding the drama site, the article is also concerned about the manga and to my knowledge the manga has no English adaptation and no official title. Why should the article continue to use that title? WhisperToMe (talk) 04:38, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Because it's the only title that we do have.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 04:46, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Curious

Why did you delete my user page? and also, please check back on my talk page. i have a question for you posted there.--Krasilschic (talk) 20:35, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Because it wasn't made by you and it didn't have much of any use to you.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 21:26, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Who made it? I knew I didn't.--Krasilschic (talk) 21:34, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Red something. You sent him a message.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 21:34, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Rollback

Please stop misusing rollback. Just recently you made another misuse of the rollback button. Your recent rollbacks are:

Do not misuse rollback. This is not a function for reverting good faith edits. It is a vandal and nonsense fighting function. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 22:40, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
