Add the tag and click the protect tag as you already know and it should work. I believe that several other users have tested it. I went to the protect tab here and you didn't actually semiprotect it, so I removed it so it wouldn't show up on the semi-protected pages list.Voice of All 00:35, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

I see that you deleted my vandalism disclaimer on the George W. Bush article -- just wanted to discuss why it wasn't needed.

George W. Bush and Category:Facist Leaders

  1. It's spelled fascist.
  2. Extreme POV of this sort to a high-profile article such as George W. Bush will be reverted very quickly and may even be considered vandalism by some.

Strawman?

Thanks for playing, but it doesn't take much brain power to see that you're a parody of a liberal, rather than the real thing--63.22.95.82 18:43, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

  • You're right - I am a conservative - I used to support GWB because I thought that republicans were fore small government - He has shown himself to be the exact opposite using terroism to expand the powers of government like never before. I no longer call myself a republican. Also, umm, who the hell are you?--God_of War 19:05, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Template:User rainbow

I changed the template image to 40px because the size of the picture causes it to clash horribly with the other colour userboxes. See for yourself: Misplaced Pages:Userboxes/Colors Morgan695 00:17, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Unblock me

Why have I been blocked. What trolling are you talking about? I have been given no notice to stop doing anything and no examples of trolling have been cited. Please unblock me.--God_of War 02:20, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

I have asked Neutrality to explain the block.-gadfium 03:37, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
I see that Neutrality has unblocked you. You should be careful not to repeat the behaviour that led to the block. I assume that was the edit, or one of the edits, which led to the block. If I see such edits from you again, I'll block you too.-gadfium 05:26, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
  • I apoligize for my one talk page comment about gay cowboys, it was too tempting. However, neutrality has never told me why he blocked me or even given me the memo that I was unblocked. I do not believe gay cowboys was ever a blockable offense or the reason for my block. I think Neutralliy blocked me because I disagreed with him over the issues over userboxes and he wanted to silence me.--God_of War 05:30, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay, I was at a new year's party. It looks like neutrality unblocked you two hours later, so no harm, no foul I suppose. karmafist 09:51, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks a bunch. I may swap it back, 'cause the template takes less space & clutter on edits. If you're inclined, have a look at my page & see if there's anything else you like. I'm makin' 'em for me, but if you think anybody else might like 'em, hey... Trekphiler 23:07, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Missing user boxes

if you are going to remove userboxes from a page - could you please make a note of it in the deletion log. This action orphans the boxes and is almost the same as deleting them because they become impossible to find. If your are going to delete boxes from one section make sure you add those same boxes to a different section. Thankyou--God of War 18:37, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

I didn't delete any, as far as I know. I moved many to where they had more appropriate categories. I wonder what I may have missed, and offer to put it back. —James S. 19:41, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

"C Pound"

It sounds like you'd like something in the article to change regarding the way to pronounce the name of the language, but I don't understand whether you want to change the article to agree with your acquaintences' pronunciation or to warn people like your acquaintences to say "C Sharp" instead of "C Pound". If you want the former, the place to take up your argument is with the ECMA, the owners of language specification, as they say it's pronounced "C Sharp". If you want the latter, that's already in the Language name section. The Rod 20:47, 3 January 2006 (UTC) (copied from Talk:C Sharp#"C Pound")

Guns, ammo, & stuff

Sorry to take so long to reply. I like what you did with the gun control & carry templates; sorry to see they're now up for deletion by censor-loonies. I also agree with your W=Geo3. When major media outlets repeat the lies, it's hard to get people to do anything. If you didn't think media consolidation was bad for democracy, that ought to convince you.

Misplaced Pages:Templates for deletion/userbox templates concerning beliefs and convictions

Hi. You listed Misplaced Pages:Templates for deletion/userbox templates concerning beliefs and convictions for deletion at Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion. I have closed that debate as a speedy keep, because we keep such discussion pages as a record of the debate. To delete such a page interferes with deletion policy. However, I have not judged your actions to be in anything but good faith, and so I thought I would return that good faith and pay you the courtesy of explaining my decision. I hope you can appreciate the position. Steve block talk 21:36, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Woaaaaah.....God of War 05:47, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

I wish didn't do it that way, because now they have an opportunity to strike back

This whole story has escalated already, because it isn't solely about the userboxes but more about the misuse of power and the failure to deal with misuse of power, however if you leave messages at those who are feel the same way, it can (or probably will) be used against you and it has the opposite effect of what you are trying to achieve.

Upto now the other party has made premature moves with the deletion of templates, pages, categories, failure to rule on the matters etc. and has therefore severely undermined their own goal, however if you also try to by pass the guidelines which are there it too will undermine our side.

Even though this particular deletion can be considered a way to wipe out the past, it has failed in their objective. But if a lot of people are now called to vote instead of determining it by themselves, it'll have an adverse effect. KittenKlub 21:06, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Blocked

I've blocked you for 24 hours for your repeated reposting of personal attacks on Misplaced Pages:Deletion review. Perhaps tomorrow you'll be more willing to interact more civilly with your fellow users. If not, I foresee a long line of similar blocks in your future. —Cryptic (talk) 04:43, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

  • What incivility? - How can people possibly be expected to vote on something if they can't see it?--God of War 04:46, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
  • It was agreed upon in the review that the incivil thing was the picture of stalin. That is why I removed the picture of stalin before I reposted it, I was doing my best to be civil while allowing people to see the box so they could vote on it.--God of War 04:48, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

The template was described earlier in the review. What you were posting was not the template as deleted. And if you attempt to evade your block again, I will happily make it permanent. —Cryptic (talk) 05:12, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for repling. I was not trying to evade my block. Evading my block would be to use different acounts to do the same action I was blocked for. I only used different accounts so I could communicate with you as you were not responding to me here. What I posted was an alternate version I hoped people would agree on. I was not in violation of WP:CIVIL, I was attempting to make a compromise that everyone could agree was acceptable. However, you blocked me without any discussion or warning. If you had posted a note on my talk page I would have been willing to work through this without any more reverting.--God of War 05:32, 6 January 2006 (UTC)


  • You didn't warn me before you blocked me.
  • I was not attacking anyone - You should have assumed good faith.
  • You did not post a note on my talk page and attempt to discuss the issue first.
  • When blocking may not be used - Use of blocks to gain advantage in a content dispute
  • The content was not incivil and was relevant to the discussion. - I removed the offending picture before I posted the box.
  • The 3RR was not violated, I reverted back to my version once and I left a summary explaining why I was doing this.
  • Blocks are not inteded as punishment. They are inteded to stop the negative actions from occuring. Asking me to stop what I was doing would have been enough.


{{unblock}}

Having read the above and looked at the edits in question, I see no good justification for the block. I see God of War engaging in civilized discussion and explaining his reasoning. Whether the template was a personal attack is debatable, but I think we can reasonably assume good faith on God of War's edits. Friday (talk) 20:58, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

  • It's sad when my attempts to find a compromise to a dispute are singled out as a Personal Attack by an Admin who disagrees with me. An almost identical copy of the template is undergoing a tfd right now at Misplaced Pages:Templates_for_deletion#Template:User_2006_New_Year_Day_Participate. Selina did exactly what I did, she posted the box in the discussion so that everyone could see what it looked like. However while I removed the stalin image to try and find a compromise userbox, she did not. Now I was blocked and she was not. There is no way for me to appeal my block and now I will forever be known as a troll and a trouble maker for taking a POV opposite to that of an admin in a debate.
  • With the current state of things, anyone criticising an admins actions is cited with a WP:NPA. There can be no consensus when critical speech is censored and taking the opposite view of an admin in a debate is incivil. With no checks on admin power, I am forced to wonder why I stick around this project at all. Someday all the disallusioned editors who believe in true consensus and debate over everyone feeling happy about themselves will make a mirror of this site and the editors from wikipedia will see that it is better and slowly start to move there. I am sure that within a few minutes a block will be re-instated against me even though I have taken pains to follow all of the Wiki-ettiquite laws I know of, in this message. If I am blocked for this post then everything I think to be true of wikipedia censorship will be confirmed--God of War 05:56, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Change?

Why the image change in Template:User screw?

Okay, I am just asking since it makes the userbox a rather odd size (I also personally liked the old image). Thanks for reply. Ian13ID:540053 20:53, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Hey God, Just wanted to say hang in there. I think you are making some really good arguments about the user boxes and the use of power by WP admins. Also, thank you for putting something up on the Template User_War_on_drugs page redirecting users to the Deletion Review page. I am... disenchanted that even that post was deleted. --Tiger Marc 02:35, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Comment on the fair use on usrpages userbox

It might be less controversial if it had something like "And wished the United States copyright laws clearly allowed fair use images on userpages." or "supports a policy and legislative change, in reverse order" to rebut all the "illegal" naysayers. 68.39.174.238 00:09, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Re: user allboxes

Oh, sorry, the template deletion warning frame had the wrong link, which should have been to Misplaced Pages:Templates for deletion#Template:User allboxes. Instead it had some weird parameter which was null. I fixed it at Template:User allboxes. Sorry.

Do you want to go through and make sure that the deletion warning frame is correct for all the userboxes in Misplaced Pages:Templates for deletion? James S. 19:56, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

God of War. I wish you lots of luck fighting

But personally I have seen more than enough of Misplaced Pages. Most the time spend here is either reverting nonsense from anonymous users who keep on putting all kinds of vandalism in the documents and the other time you have to fight censorship, abusive administrators and receive all kinds of insults. The irony is that vandals cannot be stopped and just continue their abuse especially if they have a dynamic IP which allows them to return daily and start playing the same games over and over again.

I have come to the conclusion that Misplaced Pages has failed as an encyclopedia. It is definitely not a nice place and everybody who contributes is crazy since it's a route to nowhere with documents filled with inaccuracy and very tainted by whomever happens to control the subject. There is huge abuse by the administrators and this userbox story is just one example of the clique. They have no idea of the Constitution and it does apply to wikipedia. They want everybody to be gray slaves who do nothing but to revert the constant attack of vandals.

I feel that anonymous user shouldn't be allowed to edit, it's a crazy idea and they are unable to counter the attacks and that will just get worse since the site keeps on expanding. I have been gone for two days and of the 160 pages on the watchlist 20 pages seemed to have been vandalised and 14 of them still had nonsense or vandalism on them. That means 70% was not reverted.

I just finished another round of voting but this bunch of people who want to impose censorship will continue to abuse the system because it will be unlikely that they'll ever be desysoped since the owner feels exactly the same way. You can't have trolls running the place, but it seems that it's perfectly normal here.

I've started on the Dutch wiki and there was quite a lot of abuse and powerplay and it was pretty disgusting with a steward who is unable to utter a single line without an ad hominem attack and who bans people at random and simply terrorizes that place, however the English wikipedia is even worse since it's even bigger and more shit seems to have floated to the top. It is even amazing that those admins (or stewards) have a long list of being banned themselves because their behaviour went out of line many times, yet nobody dares to revoke their privileges.

To cut a long story short, I appreciate everything which you have done and wish you lots of strength fighting, but somehow this place doesn't seem worth it, however I just wanted to leave you a personal message, because you are on the few righteous people around here.

Userbox

About my edit, I was trying to fix it because it was interfering with the userbox navigation at the bottom of the screen.- JustPhil 18:16, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Re: Green Shahada

Hi God of War —

Looking through the history, it seems that the image I based Image:Green Shahada crescent.png on was deleted for lack of copyright information, and so my image, a derivative, was deleted for the same reason. I was worried about this when I first created the image, so couldn't release my image under a free license.

Sorry about the template. I expect that there are other free images you can replace it with, such as Image:Mosque02.png.

Userbox catagorisiation

Well done! IanID:540053 20:12, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

I wonder if you might consider...

I wonder if you might consider simply removing your political userboxes and asking others to do the same. This seems to me to be the best way to quickly and easily end the userbox wars.

Userboxes of a political or, more broadly, polemical, nature are bad for the project. They are attractive to the wrong kinds of people, and they give visitors the wrong idea of what it means to be a Wikipedian.

I think rather than us having to go through a mass deletion (which is what is likely to happen if the userbox fad doesn't go away), it will be better to simply change the culture, one person at a time. Will you help me?--Jimbo Wales 10:53, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:No confidence

Edicts from above are a growing concern for those who believe Misplaced Pages should be what it purports itself to be in newspapers, magazines, and to new members: a community of editors. As a community, we believe that members who have greater power should use that power to promote consensus and a neutral point of view. When an administrator abuses his or her greater power to promote self interest or personal POV against or without the consent of the community, we believe that member should lose his or her administrative or higher powers. Would you be interested in starting and/or promoting a Misplaced Pages:No confidence area for the purpose of demoting administrators and above who use their power to push personal POV?

In such an area, any editor could call for a show of support or no-confidence for an administrator or higher. People would sign for either support or no-confidence along with examples of the editor in question creating an edict without consensus, or a statement of why they believe the alleged edicts are in line with community consensus. Please feel free to start or add to Misplaced Pages:No confidence and to duplicate this message or tell other editors who want to see Misplaced Pages succeed. --KIMP (spewage) 18:50, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

requesting a comment

Hello God of War (hard to type it with a straight face). Since I use a duplicate of your fine template, I request your comment on an issue. Of course one does not follow the other but I sense a sneeze of humor and that's why I'm requesting a comment. The Scientology series of articles is undergoing edit wars. My perception of its root lies in: "Is Scientology original research" or, "Is Scientology a primary source of information." Obviously it isn't a secondary source but whether it is solid enough to be a primary source seems to be in question. At Talk:Clear_(Scientology)#How_can_we_resolve_the_good-guy.2C_bad-guy_editing I've initiated an attempt to resolve the issue, may I invite your disinterested comment please?

Just when I was starting to get uneasy about the arbitrary application of WP policy...

Hey, I appreciate that you got the speedy delete of the KKK userbox template reversed. It's not that I want to have a KKK template, but I'd like to think that there is at least some level at which WP operates according to agreed upon rules. Certainly, the process for discussing deletions is one of the more refined and, hopefully, adhered to WP policies. Having the template speedied in the middle of an AfD discussion that was focused on a healthy discussion of philosophical principles, and not on the ideology of the KKK, was causing me to rethink whether the level of anarchy at WP is too high to make continuing to contribute here worth my time. Your action has restored some hope, although the jury is still out. – Doug Bell 02:37, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Template:User Barnstar

This template defeats the point of having a Template Maker's Barnstar.

Image copyright problem with Image:Paris_Cellphone_Pics.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Paris_Cellphone_Pics.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Misplaced Pages because of copyright law (see Misplaced Pages's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Misplaced Pages are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or ask for help at Misplaced Pages talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you. -- Carnildo 08:51, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

User:Doc glasgow

Seriously, this guy has gone out of control in relation to userboxes. Is there nothing we can do? --Horses In The Sky 00:14, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Barnstar

For your brilliant and constructive efforts to save userboxes from unnecessary deletion, I present you with the Outspoken barnstar! --D-Day Somebody talk to me. Please somebody! Anybody! 19:25, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

User:God of War/Was REVENGE worth it President Bush?

Would you please consider removing this? No, I'm not into censorship - actually I'm vermently opposed to it. And (if it matters to you) I'm also very anti-Bush. But Misplaced Pages is not a webhost for essays, and this doesn't seem to serve any purpose related to the encyclopedia. (Maybe I've missed something, of course.)

I've read the banner on it - Warning! The following contains a Point Of View that will tempt some to censor it by listing it at WP:MFD. If you do not like critical thinking read no further!. Frankly, that could be mistaken for trolling (wrongly I hope). As if you want somone to MfD it, so you can jump on a soapbox say it is all about the censorship of your views. Well, I hope that's not your motive, and as I want to assume good faith - I thought I'd just ask you very nicely to blank it or mark it for deletion. In any case, I have no intention of MfD'ing this.

If you really understand wikipedia and what it is about, then I know, once you think about it, you will agree to my request. Thanks --Doc 00:46, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Oh come on, I thought you were more subtle than to be blatant troll - blank it and mark it for a speedy. --Doc 00:36, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Here we go again

Sigh Well it seems that they are now resorting to nominating userboxes en mass. Not to mention that contentious edict of There Shall Be No More GWB Userboxes. My wikibloodpressure is shooting through the roof! It seems like the whole {{User pedo}} kerfuffle has caused our side to loose a bunch of support (which is a shame since userboxes weren't really the cause, but rather a symptom of the problem) and emboldened the boo-hoo brigade. Do we have any admins on our side who could try to talk some reason with these people? --Dragon695 02:12, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Seems as though all the political party userboxes have been killed. Mine still appears on my userpage, but I'm new to userboxes so I'm not sure if that's odd. --Lewk_of_Serthic contrib 04:08, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
I saw on a website about wiki that User: Sarge Baldy supports them, but he's an anarchist like me, so no surprise. It mentioned others, but sarge was the only one I recognized. I'm with you man. We should start a userbox and catergory for wiki-police state resistors, but of course it will be deleted--my attempt already was. The Ungovernable Force 07:49, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Rfc

God,

Within the next 24 hours, I will submit an Rfc against the admins who continuously speedy userboxes without consensus, and whatever else. If there's anything you think should be included on there, please let me know. --D-Day Somebody talk to me. Please somebody! Anybody! 14:52, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
