The Barnstar of Anonymous Contribution | ||
I hereby award you, the anonymous contributors hailing from 156.34.0.0 - 156.34.255.255, with The Barnstar of Anonymous Contribution, for the unsung and thankless service you have rendered unto Misplaced Pages, in your countless minor edits and bigger contributions over time. They have made a difference in our community and hopefully retelling this event to the barmen you encounter may bring forth the odd free beer to wrap in your hand. Thanks!--Alf 14:23, 3 April 2007 (UTC) and Bubba hotep 14:24, 3 April 2007 (UTC) |
- tears, smiles, waves to the audience as he walks down the podium, kisses losing IPs on the cheek. 156.34 is a team of bored librarians(and the occasional vandalising student...but we'll ignore them). On behalf of the "library crew"..we thank you for the token of Wiki-appreciation. 156.34.142.110 14:35, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
Actually, this has more historical significance than appears on the surface. You see, this is probably the only Barnstar young Alfred has given out this year (something about losing the keys to the cabinet or something) so, as such, is rare indeed. Guard it with your life. ;) Bubba hotep 14:49, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

So here is a barnstar for being my unofficial mentor and for giving me some great times on Misplaced Pages. It's also for cleaning up a lot of the junk that makes it onto here... Tally Ho! Take care, friend. Scarian 14:11, 27 October 2007 (UTC) |

Uhuh
I will not revert that edit as it may have corrected some things, but it also took out a lot of things that should have been left in. I don't feel like going through the page to correct everything as I am working on other things. Navnløs 18:35, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- Nope, I'm afraid it's up to you today Libsey. TW is being a complete ass and has gone and gotten itself lagged up... I haven't been able to CSD anything all day. Undo away! Scarian 18:44, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- I am beginning to think our newbie is missing a little something... upstairs???. He is going to to break the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" rule. If an admin notices his personal agenda.. and likely one will... he is apt to find himself blocked for a while to cool down. His intentions are leaning towards damage as opposed to improvement. A dangerous quality in someone who intends to be a dedicated editor. 156.34.142.110 18:52, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks about the vandalism tip. Navnløs 18:57, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- No problem. It'll get taken care of a lot faster when its reported in the right place. 156.34.142.110 18:58, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
A different section not to draw attention...
They grow up so fast don't they? He's already learnt how to grab people's attentions with capital letters! Ha, naw, I feel sorry for him. Misplaced Pages is gonna give him a mental impairment (Aren't we all mentally impaired in some manner if we keep coming back to this place?!) and make him very ill. He's obsessing over a stupid thing like that... someone should point it out that the whole 'comma/line break' "war" is just an incredibly small pea in a giant ocean (I amalgamated two proverbs in one, good eh?). Go get Alf to sort him out... or a child psychologist... whichever is cheaper :-D Scarian 19:01, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- Personal agendas are a dangerous thing within Wiki. I should point him towards WP:SOAP. There is only a small minority that favour the line break over the comma. A large number of regular (and mentally stable) editors support the comma as a separator for all infobox lines... simply for "encyclopedic neatness". There is a small population of wannabe's on Wiki that are working hard to stop the project from ever obtaining that lofty "pedia" status. Right now its just a Wiki... and if teenyboppers have there way... it'll look more like a teen chat room than an encyclopedia. I am still pushing to get metal-archives.com added to Shadow's blacklist. It's one of those pea-brained amateur music webzines that just procreates stupidity among the "metal fandom". It's not the only one.... but it's certainly the worst of the ooze. 156.34.142.110 19:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- Just... wow. Btw, what's Shadow's Blacklist? Funeral 19:28, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- User:Shadow1 is the admin that runs the shadowbot... the anti-spam, anti-blog, anti-junk-website BOT that patrols Wiki in search of naughty, unproductive internet links. Any website can be added to Shadow1's request list and if it is deemed as worthy(or unworthy as the case would be) then it gets entered into the bot's blacklist. And if anyone tries to add the unwanted website then shadowbot swoops in and either A) prevents the user from saving the page or B) simply rv's the edit and issues a warning. Scrutiny of the blacklist is tight. They won't just add any link... you really have to prove your point well to get a link added onto "the list". 156.34.228.22 20:28, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

First off, I am obsessed with wikipedia and I can't get over the whole line break/ comma break thing and I don't know why. You're edit to the thrash page seemed good, though. Navnløs 16:54, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Tic Tac Toe
Pulled him up about something on his userpage ... It's petty but I'm pretty sure it's got something to do with you, I read about it on Alf's talk page. Take care, Scarian 17:19, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- I saw that earlier. He's not worth the effort. He's more entertaining when he gets drunk and starts posting gibberish on the TalkJesus page :D . 156.34.142.110 17:38, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Re: Reply to earlier comment
What is this in regards to? --PEJL 17:33, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Right, "coffee". ;-) --PEJL 17:41, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- In Canada we call that kind of coffee fix "gimme an extra large triple triple" :D . 156.34.142.110 17:48, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Haha, you make me laugh so much. Good call on taking that one out haha. Scarian 17:56, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oh when he returns from under his bridge he will still see it. He is actually a very good editor when it comes to certain things that he holds important... like the whole Christian metal thing of which he seems to spearhead and doesn't do too bad of a job at it... when he isn't ignoring the concensus set by WP:ALBUM that is. He has been giving User:Funeral an awful hard time lately. Funeral is doing an excellent job following up on the WP:ALBUM guidelines and E tac is following behind and undoing his work... which is just bad form. The delimiters arguement, and the very loud minority of "anti-comma" turnips and specific to the musician template and not the album template... where a clear concensus was reached... but Tic Tac doesn't seem to know the difference between the two. He could be an excellent editor... but his temper gets the better of him. 156.34.142.110 18:27, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'll keep an eye on him. Scarian 18:45, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Quick btw, - Are you aware of that? It's getting a little beyond a joke... Scarian 18:46, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'll keep an eye on him. Scarian 18:45, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
The editor has been asked by Wiki alf to hold off on his agenda war... but he snuck that in. The motto of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" has been preached to him... but he did not act accordingly. It's small potatoes. The majority of "non-turnip" editors favour the comma... and likely soneone will take offence to the unencyclopedic form and snap some commas in there... but it won't be me. The WP:MOS talk is stagnant... only turnips have spouted off over there... because all the real editors are doing just that... "editing". 156.34.142.110 19:10, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Where are you when I need you? That guy is being a complete and utter ass... but I suppose this will provide you with some good reading when you return. First check out the Iron Maiden history... Lovely, eh? Then check out User talk:Navnløs' talk page and what I said to him... And, finally, check out the recent
crapmessages he's left me on my talk page... How immature and petty can people get? Ugh... I've left this one with Alf to deal with... it's beyond me and my temper. I gotta read WP:CIVIL again... :-D Scarian 22:29, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Links in personnel sections
Hey, I'm not sure I agree with this. Instruments should be linked on first occurrence per WP:ALBUM#Personnel, but I think what is really meant is instrument or other act of participation (including background vocals). That guideline doesn't say anything about linking to articles on individual personnel, but I would argue that it should. See my argument about primary links at Misplaced Pages talk:Manual of Style (links)#Overlinking and primary links. I'll propose some clarifications at WT:ALBUM. --PEJL 22:11, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
I realise IPs are not allowed to vote (even static IPs like me), and that my vote will be struck
There is nothing shamefull about being an ip. Be proud of what you are. Ceoil 14:00, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Haha - "Be proud of what you are." - You said it like he has some sort of deformity. Scarian 14:35, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- And being a librarian isn't considered a deformity? :p You know I only jest..--Alf 14:36, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Album categories
Hey. Edits like this are inappropriate because Category:Black Sabbath albums is already categorized in Category:Heavy metal albums. See WP:ALBUM#Categories. --PEJL 18:28, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Cool... wasn't sure... they just seemed like holes since 90% of their album articles had both. Shall I rm? Or is it a good AWB job? 156.34.216.130 18:53, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- PS One inconsistency I've noticed in the Black Sabbath infoboxes pertains to the "next" and "previous" bits at the bottom. Most go to the "next" studio album... but some go to live albums and some to complations. The proper is to the next studio albums isn't it? 156.34.216.130 18:56, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- I can't help with AWB right now unfortunately, as I've shut down that box. Yep, only studio albums. WP:ALBUM#Chronology says: "Only studio albums, usually excluding live albums, compilations, singles and EPs should be included in the chronology." --PEJL 19:06, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Explain to me why the Possessed line-up shot can't be used. Navnløs 19:02, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Read WP:FAIR and WP:NONFREE. A image tagged as a screenshot is only fair-use if it's used in the in the Misplaced Pages article about the source of the screenshot. Similarly, and album cover cannot be used in any articles other than the article about the specific album that the covver is from. Also, both screenshots and covers need to have Fair-use rationale included in their descriptions in order to stay on Misplaced Pages. If they don't they are likely top be deleted. Hope that helps. 156.34.142.110 19:06, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, well I don't understand then, why do so many band article have an image of the band in that place? Navnløs 19:12, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Also, I do understand the fair-use rational thing. I upload logos all the time.Navnløs 19:15, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, well I don't understand then, why do so many band article have an image of the band in that place? Navnløs 19:12, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Well, like I said I do understand fair use, and I provide it, however, as a bot pointed out to me, I forgot to put one for that line-up photo, which is what I think you were getting at. Navnløs 19:23, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- I see. Well, I've uploaded a lot of logos and so far none of them have been taken out of their respective articles. I understand if they're too flashy, but I think logos, like pictures, sometimes add a little something to the articles. They should definitely be readable, though. Navnløs 19:39, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, well feel free to remove it I guess, if it breaks a rule, but I still don't understand what you mean by "be fair-use in the article which pertains to the source of the screenshot itself." Do you mean that the article actually has to mention the specific picture?? Navnløs 19:42, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I like those logos, though they could be reduced in size. I'll take care of it later, I gott do something now. You still have yet to answer my last question, though. Navnløs 19:47, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, well feel free to remove it I guess, if it breaks a rule, but I still don't understand what you mean by "be fair-use in the article which pertains to the source of the screenshot itself." Do you mean that the article actually has to mention the specific picture?? Navnløs 19:42, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Ok
I agree with you on a few points to be sure. But as far as the image thing goes I have some more questions. I get what you are saying that an image can only be used next to an article that it specifically deals with it. However, when is it okay, then, to use an image in the music infobox? For example take a look at the Death page...is that image in the band's music infobox not allowed? I mean it is a picture of the band and has sources and everything. When is it allowed to use an image in a music infobox? Navnløs 23:01, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- I believe that image has a false/dishonest tag and that if the true source were found... somewhere on the net... then it could be reported as copyvio and the uploader likely be blocked for lying about the source. I can AGF that they person actually took the pic... but it is my experience on Misplaced Pages that some fans... because they want soooo much for their favourite band to have a picture... will lie about a picture source just to get one in there. And 99% of the time I am right. It's worth investigating further. 156.34.223.225 23:06, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- A quick Google search of that pic shows various forms of it (many in B&W) on many websites. It is likely a copyvio and should be reported as such. 156.34.223.225 23:12, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
So are you saying that if someone had 100% correct sources and everything then they could put a picture in the music infobox? Also, do you like all those bands we talked about earlier (anthrax, morbid saint, morbid angel)? Because those are all badass bands, especially morbid saint in my opinion. I still think logos add something and it would be one thing if that was what you immediately saw, but the fact is that w/e logo a band page has you still see the band's name written out in normal print in huge letters right at the beginning at the top. Navnløs 23:57, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- - Yeah. Okay. Scarian 00:17, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Easter Eggs
Sorry to have got you excited, no, not even a picture: the Iron Maiden article has what I term (I think others do also) an "Easter Egg" - in the line about Satanic stuff (search "Sata" and you'll be there), the linking to the Number of the Beast song is under "title track", this is (imho) is not nice, next time you're editing the page, could you fix it? Thanks.--Alf 18:07, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- Don't get me wrong though, it's only in articles that I don't like Easter Eggs, talk pages and the like are fine.--Alf 18:24, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

User:Deathbringer from the Sky
A sockpuppet of Navlos? See: (this edit was from today) and (from a few weeks ago).
Both accounts were registered around the same time, and take a look at this upload . Its fair use rationale and edit summary is identical to this (and all of Navlos's other logo uploads). What do you think? Funeral 18:31, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- If the accounts are acting against the allowed usages of socks, a request for checkuser would be appropriate, is that yet the case?--Alf 18:34, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- If it is the same editor the relevant diffs are;
- Technically toeing the line but overstepping the spirit of the three-revert rule if they are the same editor.--Alf 18:43, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- So, should I make a request for checkuser. I've never made one before so I don't really know what to do. Also, straight after he was blocked, he edited under his IP here after an edit he made with his account was undone. Funeral 18:52, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Very similar. Hard to pass judgement-a. An RCU would reveal all. Mr Navalopse is currently blocked for 24 hours... and so is his IP. if, in fact he overstepped his block to conjure up the 4th rv... he would be very much proving to all that he intends to push the agenda as set forth on hi user/yalk pages. 156.34.142.110 18:58, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Also... By way of User:Scarian's talk page... I was led to the link for a request for comment for User:Scipo. On that request for comment page an editor has brought up the similarities between Scipo and Navalopse and a sockpuppet accusation has been made there as well. Add DftS into the mix and I'd say there was an even bigger case for requesting an RCU. 156.34.142.110 18:58, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- (Without the consideration of Libs' comment above:edit conflicted) Hmm, though the info was good, the cite was bad, it should have linked imdb (search "canni" and you'll find the line). It's such an irritatingly small issue to want to bother to checkuser at present, as I said, technically toeing the line (to the minute no less), if the insanity continues much more, I'd change my opiniob. Will the next person to edit the Iron Maiden page, please sort out those missing == in "Somewhere Back in Time==== On 5 September 2007, " para just before the Recognition section :) --Alf 19:00, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- Further to what I posted earlier... hopefully minus the edit conflict...
- Scarian had a conversation with a West coast IP that posted a complaint at ANI the other night See Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#An_abusive_editor_continuing_to_edit_war_across_multiple_articles_despite_warnings. The link in the user's request for comment page is there. Interesting reading. Worth adding to the mix.... should someone decide to take it that far. 156.34.142.110 19:18, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Re: Question about a permanently blocked user who is still active as an IP
I am sure you are very familiar with the SEGA saga. SEGA was permanently banned (See Misplaced Pages:Community_sanction_noticeboard/Archive6#Community_ban_on_User:SEGA ). But I've noticed 2 of his usual IPs (that were only blocked for 6 months) are now active again. (See 67.33.61.18 (talk · contribs) and 68.112.18.13 (talk · contribs) ). Take note of this edit. Immediately after being tagged... the user blanked their page and then vandalised the talk page of the user who tagged them. My question is... since SEGA is perma-banned.... shouldn't all his usual IP haunts be banned as well? Just wondering. Thanks for your help. Have a nice day! 156.34.142.110 18:31, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- They should be, but I don't have access to my cluehammer at the moment. Can I suggest you post at ANI and ask someone to reinstate the checkuser block placed by Essjay? Cheers, Daniel 06:05, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- I did as you suggested and posted this concern at WP:ANI. But it was ignored and deleted from the page yesterday. SEGA created a new user account and began editing a slew of Iron Maiden related articles. I rv'd him and called him out on his sockpuppetry. He tried to plead his case on my talk page claiming he was an entirely different editor (one that's been dormant for a few months) In the end though he goofed up and accidantly put a reply on my talk page using his 67.X IP instead of his new sock account. It was actually quite funny at the time. But... in the end... this is still SEGA... he's permanently banned fromWikipedia... and he's editing using multiple IPs and creating new sock user accounts in spite of his block. After his goof the other night I expect he has been busy creating many new accounts while he still can. I can predict we'll be seeing copyvio images being uploaded into any/all Phish related article for the next three months. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 156.34.142.110 23:07, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
- Now that I have access again, I've blocked both IP's for six months per previous checkuser evidence and some pretty blatant contributions-based connection as well :) Cheers, Daniel 23:27, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

I am not not judgemental about other denominations (it's just not the "Anglican way")... regardless of how much of a hoax they may be... and that one certainly looks like one. :D And... if they are legit... then... being a good Christian lad... I ask for their forgiveness and in return... will be forgiving as I can possibly be with them for spamming Misplaced Pages and using it as an advertising platform :D . There... how's that for an answer that A) assumes good faith B)Turns up the good turns down the suck and C)doesn't get me stuck with lightning!! :D . 156.34.142.110 16:36, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

What's up?
Hey I changed your edit to Iron Maiden because that user, Hooks21101, removed a lot of pov and corrected some errors. Also, in response to your comment on my page, that's really cool about all thee meetings you had with players. As for your like of other genres as well, thats fantastic! I, too, am a lover of many trypes of music, from folk to blues to funk and many other things. I pretty much like almost all music before the late 80's. I detest rap, emo, nu-metal, metalcore and most new types of music in general. I'm not the biggest fan of death metal, either, actually. I like old school death metal mostly. Even then, though, I don't listen to much death metal. I much prefer power metal, viking metal, folk metal and black metal. Navnløs 19:22, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Also, I just looked at some of your comments and I would like to point out I am NOT that other user! I did edit under another ip adress when I was blocked, but as I told the administrator, it was only to explain myself to him/ her why I thought I shouldn't be blocked. Navnløs 19:24, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, well then sorry for changing your edits back to that guy's. But I thought it did seem a rather good edit, though he did take out a few citations. I thought he removed some pov stuff and reworded a few sentences so they were less confusing. Navnløs 19:27, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

usually, is for the right reasons. Scarian 19:28, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Scarian. As for the "metal" topic... I don't distinguish too much on a few of those "fairy tale" genres... I just listen to all of them. Power metal... is just heavy metal... viking metal is just heavy metal... folk metal is just heavy metal... melodic death metal.... is just death metal.... etc. Now Black metal.... it's Black... and there is no other way to describe it. :D I like some bands that have been described as metalcore.... although I've never thought of them as such. Same with nu metal. Some idiots on Misplaced Pages call St. Anger Nu metal???? but they are the products of married cousins so their opinions can just be ignored. The genre war on Misplaced Pages is a funny thing. In the end... they're all just Rock. Thrash, Death, Heavy, Power, Nu, Black.... whatever you want to call it.... they aren't genres... they're just styles of the parent genre... Rock. If Misplaced Pages had made that distinction in the beginning... we wouldn't have half the edit wars on music article that we have today. Hindsight is 20/20. 156.34.142.110 19:32, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- PS I did not disagree 100% with the Iron Maiden edits.... but it's SEGA in disguise... and he can be rv'd for no other reason other than... it's SEGA. 156.34.142.110 19:34, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'm looking at the tags right now... but which one? Has it been proven by a checkuser that he is SEGA? Scarian 19:44, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
Thank you. I'm not retarded... honest. *runs away embarrassed* Scarian 19:57, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
What's the deal?
This is former User:Darthrya, NOT a banned user. Why are you erasing all of the edits I did? I have just cleaned up POV and correctly tagged some DVDs. Hooks21101 20:10, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Your edits are extremely... and I do mean "extremely" close to the banned user's. I can AGF that you are Darthrya. (why the new account?)... but you really need to stop deleting {unref} tags...that's akin to vandalism + read WP:ENGVAR etc.. You are mimicking a user who is banned for life here... dangerous territory... an RCU lies in your future... and you may rm the tag for now. It can always be added back by a W-CU anyways once they've snooped account history. 156.34.142.110 20:17, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Well that's incredibly ironic... :-D Scarian 20:50, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
Totally unrelated Wiki question
I might be going to Munich for Xmas to see my lover... but I haven't been on a plane since I was 4... and well, I'm nervous... and I don't know what customs are like... and I wouldn't know where/what to do in an airport... I'm scared shitless. Any advice? Directions?! Scarian 22:51, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the advice Libs, appreciate it.
- I looked through Sega's shit storm. How could Moe keep an eye on so many socks?! I would've thought if he was smart enough just to change edit habits and summaries and maybe his internet provider he could evade the whole thing. What did he get banned for in the first place? Was/Is there a giant backlog of all the damage he has done? Scarian 09:34, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- P.S.: - Are librarians allowed to tell off naughty uni kids? :-D Scarian 09:59, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- Nope. Tha would be a plain "civilian" edit. Huge volumes of edits on Misplaced Pages come from the library crew within the 156.34 range. But that range also has a potential spread out to a population of around 1.5 million people. Every now and then... one of them slips through and wins one for the rival colours :D . 156.34.209.0 10:49, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- PS Ahhhh Geobytes says that edit came out of Dartmouth... about 450km south-east of me. Nova Scotians are just a bunch of inbred idiots with poor driving skills Did I say that??? But, inbred or not... whoever that guy was he had the courtesy to clean up his own trash. 156.34.209.0 10:57, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Re:
I've hacked at it... that Timeline section that I renamed to History needs a tag that says there isn't enough prose... I can't remember the coding for it. But anyway, I've gotten rid of most/all of the poorly written stuff. I haven't looked thoroughly through the timeline bit. I've removed all of the dead images and added a bunch of tags etc. See what you think. Scarian 15:54, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- Done. Found the tag{{prose}}. Cleaned up history section. Take a look at it and see what you think. Scarian 16:01, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Who?
So what was the user's true identity?Navnløs 17:52, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- He was/is permanently banned User:SEGA. 156.34.142.110 17:56, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Well The Elfoid made a mistake then. Navnløs 20:50, 13 November 2007 (UTC) btw that was some pretty funny crap on User:SEGA, thanks. Navnløs 20:51, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
