My RfAeditCool Cat-- Thank you for your support on my RfA. And thanks for your concerns about advertising my RfA while doing RC Patrol. I didn't get vandalised quite yet, but will keep that in mind when I pick up on it later. Thanks again. --Lord Voldemort (Dark Mark)|My RfA 01:16, 1 October 2005 (UTC) Revised the site:editAs requested, I revised the site: Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instances_of_Use_of_United_States_Armed_Forces_Abroad The last section (Instances of the employment of U.S. military forces abroad: 1991-2004) as it was orginally put up was way, way to wordy, as you mentioned. I was actually working on it when you made modifications. Hopefully this site will become obsolete or is already obsolete with a more comprehenive list of "Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Travb (talk • contribs)
Counter Vandalism UniteditThe finished product (right) I think. Looks nice IMHO
SkuldeditA user who isn't sure what he's looking for should click on the link to the disambiguation page. But I'm not really that concerned about this case. I can understand your point of view and I don't think it would be a travesty if you had your way here. I'm much more disappointed about the recent move of Baldr. - Haukurth 17:13, 1 October 2005 (UTC) Block selfeditBored? :) -- Cat chi? 18:46, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
Vandalism detection boteditHeya, someone just told me your vandalism detection bot also puts all entries in the block log on that channel. You might want to filter out blocks by me or where the reason contains POPBot for the time being, as the bot's making 3 unblocks + blocks a minute, and is going to be doing so for quite a few hours yet. --fvw* 20:22, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
CVUeditHello, Cool Cat. I was just wondering what the Counter-Vandalism Unit does (besides fighting vandalism, I mean... :-)) What does the bot do, and what does the "rollback" thingie mean? Thanks. Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk | WS 20:52, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

ToolbareditHe Cool, I happend to come across you page and I noticed your toolbar. I really like how it is set up so I stole it and added my links. I am still playing with it to see what I think, but I think it looks really cool. ... That wasn't a pun, I promise! Anyway, thanks for the toolbar. Psy guy (talk) 00:37, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for deleting iteditIt is much appreciated. Fadix 01:56, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
Thank you. I would also appreciate it you would adjust your contacts list so as to not segregate us under a horizontal rule and highlight us with a unique background colour. This is, I think, a reasonable request, but I will not try and insist on it. Not listing us would be fine, too. — Davenbelle 07:06, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
Alt text for imageseditI saw a reference to the CVU, and discovered that some of the stuff is really hard to read with images disabled. I won't go on a major cleanup spree, but I did add alt="" to some images in User:Cool_Cat/Counter_Vandalism_Unit/Nav, and I added a big alt="1" to User:Coolcat/Wdefcon_1. I see no easy way to fix the alt text on the flag images in User:Cool_Cat/Counter_Vandalism_Unit/Nav (currently, the images are small but the alt text contains long words, so the spacing looks bad when images are not displayed). —AlanBarrett 17:53, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

BTW: This bot is on #pl.wikipedia channel, not #pl.wikipedia.vandalism. I think that $remove($chan, .vandalism,$chr(35)) could be cutted to $chan. It is up to you, because with first code will work anyway. Hołek ҉ 10:51, 9 October 2005 (UTC) IRC computer accesseditHey, this is Sasquatch and I am using your IRC vandalism monitoring channel. Here's the thing, I want to add people to the blacklist and what not but I can't because I don't have computer access (Access denied... message). My IRC nick is registered under SasquatchW.

What is the nature of the NPOV dispute there? How can it be fixed? -- Beland 03:26, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Religious Article (Teen Bible Study)editThe Teen Bible Study is an article. And, it is appropriate. And, maybe not all of it has been proven correct by "scientists". But, is there any evidence proving the content of the Bible is incorrect? And, in this case, I shouldn't have to cite my source. The title tells the source, and the parentheses do too. I haven't done anything wrong. I'm not forcing religion on anyone. If, they want to read it, and believe it, good. If not, they don't have to. C2 aaron 16:08, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Computer3 boteditHello, I'm a sysop of English Wikibooks. Is it possible to install your Computer3 bot at Wikibooks and #wikibooks IRC channel? --Derbeth 19:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC) Where can I find instructions of using the bot? I see there are whitelisted users and watched pages, where and how are they set? --Derbeth 20:19, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
The bot at #wikibooks-en-vandalism seems not working - it does not show anything. F.e. bot at #wikipedia-en-vandalism displays a message when an user is blocked - this one not. --Derbeth 10:12, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

I saw that you tagged this page as {{db}} and that you wanted to have its page history merged with your user page. However, there is a problem: As described on Wikipedia:How to fix cut and paste moves#A troublesome case, merging page histories will not work when both pages have been changed and edited at the same time. If I try to merge page histories, the result will be that various versions of User:Coolcat/User History will be interleaved between versions in the page history of User:Cool Cat. And this will cause confusion to all other users who attempt to look at the page history. Thanks.

Contacts w/fuchsia background againeditAs you'll recall, we've already discussed your colouring of us in your contacts list: User talk:Coolcat/Archive 2005#Thanks for deleting it — and I see that you've now restored the fuchsia backgrounds [2][3]. You really should cease making provocative edits concerning us; it only serves ill ends. — Davenbelle 05:59, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

CVUeditHmm. Looked all over the CVU page, but I didn't see any specific directions on how to jump in. I'm guessing that it may be the same as everywhere else — edit my name into the list and go at it — but I thought I'd ask here first. Got any guidelines? Gracias. Deadsalmon 09:17, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
...hmm, that probably wasn't supposed to go there. At any rate, in response to your message on my talk page, the information on the CVU page is what I had in mind, thanks. Glad you took the initiative on this. Deadsalmon 18:10, 20 October 2005 (UTC) RE: CVU templateseditI've adjusted User:Cool Cat/CVU1-1 and User:Cool Cat/CVU2-1.

I see that you removed yourself from CVU. Is there a problem? Or is this a temporary edit? --Nlu 19:50, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
LogoseditThe Board has no policy on this yet, though it is under discussion right now. My latest email on this topic mentioned the logos you'd made (along with many other examples), noting that the CVU logo is now widely in use, with no conclusion from the Board, and that I didn't think it was an issue based on past precedents. No comments were made in response to this to suggest these logos were not ok. I can't give you "Board approval" since the Board has no official logo use policy yet, but I can say no one on the Board has objected to Image:CVU2.PNG. This shouldn't be taken to mean we don't have objections to other modified versions of the logo, especially ones which might suggest an inappropriate relationship with Wikimedia. Angela. 20:09, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
LeavingeditI just noticed that you where leaving Wikipedia, Cool Cat. So I though I'd say, good-bye, and good luck with whatever you do in the future. -- Karl Meier 21:37, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
Better luck, elsewhere. — Davenbelle 09:37, 23 October 2005 (UTC) Reconsideredit
Cool Cat: I know things are rough right now, and I know you're really stressed. The other CVU members have filled me in on what happened, and I am taken aback at the out-of-process deletion of the CVU images, particularly given that I was the one that uploaded them. Given Angela's comment above, and the fact that I have made numerous images to which the Board has given quasi-sanction, I believe it is entirely appropriate for us to have these images. Perhaps it was a bad idea on our part to include them on the templates, however, that does not provide cover for out of process deletion. (Interestingly, I was the creator of the template as well.) I intend to take the matter up with Snowspinner, and see proper redress; I would greatly appreciate it if you would reconsider leaving and would continue to do the valuable work you do with CVU. You know how much I and the other CVU members appreciate it. -- Essjay · Talk 21:28, 22 October 2005 (UTC) CC: I know you're still around, and I'm hoping you'll come find me and IRC so we can talk. If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that went astray? And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray. I have left the ninety and nine and am searching for you on the mountains; the entire CVU waits with great anticipation to rejoice when you are found. -- Essjay · Talk 22:09, 22 October 2005 (UTC) CVU ImageseditCool Cat, first, please take your well-deserved WikiBreak and come back refreshed. Anyways, I've taken the liberty of removing the CVU image from the WoW, Marmot, and Milk templates because I don't think the logo should be placed on a general vandalism template. It's a (wonderful) Wikipedian organization; however, that doesn't mean it should be placed on the WoWs tag or the Marmot tag. I would recommend creating a new template instead, saying "This user has been identified by the CVU..." or something like that. Hope to see you soon. Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk | WS 22:18, 22 October 2005 (UTC) Don't leaveeditWe know getting rid of vandels is a hard and uphill struggle, look at me, i had to repair 6 articles from vandals when wikidefcom 2 was declared for a while and low and behold someone vandalised a page i was watching. I drop on vandals like a ton of bricks, i hope you come back and do the same. We need good users like you, why not burn some steam at my site's forum. Just don't give up.

Hi.edit *hugs* User:Purplefeltangel/sig 04:55, 23 October 2005 (UTC) Don't let the actions of others control your lifeeditJul 02 23:21:30 <Snowspinner> I've slowly come to the conclusion that "don't feed the trolls" is bad advice. Jul 02 23:21:37 <Snowspinner> Feed them. Then they cross the line and you can get rid of them. Jul 02 23:21:44 <Snowspinner> "Trolling for the forces of good," I call it. When we react emotionally to the actions of others we give them power over us. Ask yourself, should my reaction to someone who I feel has wronged me be to give them control over my life? In your stay at Wikipedia you will potentially encounter thousands of issues where you disagree with someone and you know your solution would be better. Even if things go your way only half the time, that project is still improved in thousands of ways. I think that alone should make you happy, but only you can decide to allow it. By allowing any issue or any subset of issues to become too important to you, you become vulnerable and risk making yourself unhappy. You already know there will be conflict. You already know that some people will egg you on just to scare you away. You have known these things for a while, at least, and yet you continued contributing. You've shown you can step up to these challenges, so there is no point in quiting now. I hope you can return and find enough contentment in editing, and ignore the things you dislike and the people who would choose to harm you. --Gmaxwell 06:06, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

BoteditAddition to bot: I don't know how your "wheeler" detection works, if it just looks for a move to "on wheels", but it would be useful to do something similar by watching for the same user to move multiple pages quickly. So, if someone moves a page, the bot watches for that person to move more pages, then labels them a wheeler. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-10-29 18:16
Fair Use imageseditYour user and talk page spaces contain an image that is tagged as Fair Use. I always hate to be the bearer of bad news on this stuff, but as per copyright (legal) issues on this, we are not allowed to have images classified as fair use on pages not related to the subject, especially on the user space. If you could remove the image (or create a mock up, using legos, or clay, or something), that would be most excellent. Again, I'm sorry I had to do this (I had to remove Image:Cowbell2.jpg), but I'm trying to create a greater encyclopedia.
