For your anti-vandalism work along-side me on Fernando Torres. 3 vandals working together is not an easy thing to deal with, but you dealt with it great and in good time. Thanks for helping me and blocking those vandals! → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 11:44, 3 September 2007 (UTC) |
- You're welcome. :) I've protected the page. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 11:45, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
I use Twinkle, but unfortunately, it doesn't work when i request page protection, so I was just working quickly against the vandals, knowing they'd end up getting blocked if they continued. I love to give out barnstars also, especially when people are deserving of them. People don't seem to be distrubting them as much anymore, which is a shame! → jacĸrм ( talk | sign ) 11:47, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
YOU Will Provide The Ultimate Ultimatum
editUsers do have a right to blank their talk pages (it's discouraged but shouldn't be reverted), but IP talk pages CAN be reverted when blanked right? I've had confusion about this in the past and I'm hoping I understand things correctly now. :P -WarthogDemon 21:32, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- It's not allowed to remove warnings. Exception: It's a mistake. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:34, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- Got it. Thanks. :) -WarthogDemon 21:35, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- (Butting in here, DH, sorry) Warthog, technically, there is no policy that states a user cannot blank their talk pages (and in fact, Wikipedia:Userpage#Removal_of_warnings states a user may blank their talk pages, but archiving is preferred. I've had this discussion a number of times, and the consensus seems to be: A user can blank their talk pages of comments that are not current notices or warnings (like yesterday, I noticed a user blanking some warnings from Sept 2006, and I did nothing, that's fine), because they are considered a record of recent activity, that is needed to not only provide administrators information about how many warnings and what level have been given, but also to editors who may need to add warnings, the ability to know what level is appropriate. While technically it is allowed, the majority of administrators (DerHexer included) will revert blanking of current comments, for these reasons. Ariel♥Gold 21:46, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Question
editHow come you always give a level 2 warning for first offendors? Like [1], it looked more like a test than vandalism. Cheers,JetLover (Report a mistake) 03:21, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
- 2-4 is imho better than 1-4. I'm using that in my scripts. Regards —DerHexer (Talk) 16:17, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi there, I noticed that you made the last warning to this person. He/she has since made another vandalism [[2]], and I don't the authority to block them. Could you do it, please? Thanks! Bouncehoper 17:42, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
- It would be better to report the IP to WP:AIV because I'm not always online. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:42, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
I apologize for my errors. I am a first time user and am gathering information for myself in regard to Autism. I deleted what I didnt want to copy. I am currently in the process of qualifying for a job working with Autistic children. My brother is an Autistic Savant~ 56 years old. He was originally diagnosed many years ago as retarded. I am trying to gain as much information as I can to better understand; finding that there are many forms of Autism.
I am not and have no intention of vandalizing anything.
Thank you,

Need a bit of help.
editHey DerHexer I was wondering if you could give me a bit of help, I need to find out the average amount of time it takes for the rollback function to execute. Could you do a few experiments for me you can use My sandbox? Just roll back a few changes and count how many seconds it takes from the time you click the button till it loads the page. Extreme accuracy like a stopwatch is not required, but would be appreciated. Thanks for the help if you decide to give it :) -Icewedge 17:45, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- The "admin revert" reverts in a fraction of a second. Afterwards my scripts close the tab/window (before the article has been loaded) or add a warning to the user's talk page. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:37, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

editHey, just wanted to let you know about my last edit. User NKSCF undid one of the vandal's edits, but that didn't fully fix the article. The section about 1999 and 'early years' was still missing. Darry2385 14:55, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Cheers
edit[3] - Thanks for that. Did you pick it up at AIV? I reported it there and am not sure if I should now remove the entry seeing as you blocked the user straight after me reporting him/her? But, yeah, thanks again friend! ScarianTalk 15:38, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks. ;) Have you ever tried WP:VF and WP:TWINKLE? Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:52, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- No, I don't use a monobook and I think you have to have one to install those, don't you?
Could you look at User talk:172.206.116.36? I can see your final warning edit in the edit history, I can see your edit in the page when I try to edit it, but when I look at the Current version, your final warning isn't there. Corvus cornix 18:54, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- You should clear your cache to see the warning—on Firefox it's e. g. Ctrl + F5. WP:VF is an offline JavaScript tool. For WP:TWINKLE just add
importScript('User:AzaToth/twinkle.js');
to your monobook. —DerHexer (Talk) 19:00, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

By the way i am so proud you can speak a little bit of ancient greek since i am greek myself! Many thanks. Sergiogr 19:01, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Continued Vandalism
editHello, since you are sysop i would like to inform you that there has been a continued vandalism on pages i have contributed for. Plus pages have even been deleted for no apparent reasons such as Jeremiah Massey which i personally created. Veria was deleted in like some hours' time. Could you please restore these articles and possibly lock them? Thank you very much. Sergiogr 20:08, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- Both articles have been restored. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 20:42, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Removal of warnings
editActually, people are allowed to remove warnings from their talk pages. Doing so, in fact, verifies that they've seen them. See WP:USER#Removal_of_warnings. — Timotab Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!) 20:38, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- A very interesting information. Thanks! —DerHexer (Talk) 20:44, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

editHey genius you just reverted Spanoulis page BACK to the VANDALIZED version then PROTECTED it. Don't make me take your privileges away after such a ridiculously stupid move. Fix that or else. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.19.14.28 (talk) 21:17, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- Please sign your postings. I've protected the wrong version so that you've to discuss it on the talk page. And not here. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:20, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Another user filed a case of suspected sockpuppetry against an account that you'd already indefinitely blocked as a vandal-only account. I suspect that you meant to block him because of the inappropriate username since the user had made only one edit (I am, however, unable to view deleted contributions), but had listed the wrong reason in the block log. I made a comment on that SSP page to the effect that the over-warning and early blocking may have been a case of WP:BITE, and wanted to call your attention to my comments on that page if you wanted to add any comments yourself.

RFA Thanks
editDearest DerHexer,
Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed successfully with 96 supports, 1 oppose, and 3 neutrals. No matter if you !voted support, oppose, neutral, I thank you for taking the time to drop by. I'm a new admin remember, so if you have any suggestions feel free to inform me of them. I would like to give a special shout out to Hirohisat, Wizardman, and Husond, for there original co-nominations. Thank you once again and good day.
Credits
editThis RFA thanks was inspired by Phaedriel's RFA thanks. So unfortunatly this is not entirely my own design.

editWhat happened? From 6:42 my time, to 7:02, there were no blockings, no removing usernames from WP:UAA, and I checked the queue log, and there were over 1 million things queued up! lol. Anyway, got a second to take a peek at something for me? Ariel♥Gold 11:12, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Please take a look at this
editThis is skating really close to WP:LEGAL it seems, to me. This editor seems to be unable to remain calm or civil, much less neutral, as evidenced in the constant shouting of all caps. He seems to be using two IPs: Special:Contributions/90.240.175.165 (some diffs: [4] [5]) and Special:Contributions/84.71.250.82. (diff [6]) If you compare the comments, both shout in all caps and both are the same type of veiled threats. Advice? This page has been really a source of contention, I've attempted to re-write it, added valid references, removed BLP issues and NPOV commentary, but the talk page is still just out of hand, completely. User:Absentis has been really helpful, but neither of us seem to be able to get control of these two warring parties. I would really appreciate any assistance you can give. Thanks dear! Ariel♥Gold 18:13, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Hmm, difficult. It seems to be the same user but I don't know what to do now. :( Sry, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
The recent vandal
editThe recent vandal you were dealing with uploaded two images: Image:N2362343812 2150.jpg Image:Vinnie paz.gif Both of which are probably copyright violations, are no used on any pages, and are un encyclopedic. Can you please delete them? -Icewedge 18:37, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Block length
editWhy did you block for only 24 hours when the last block was for 72 and said "You have been temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia for repeated vandalism. When the block expires you are free to continue editing if you intend to make useful contributions. However, if you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, this account will be subject to a longer block and action could be taken against the individual behind this IP address?" KP Botany 20:04, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Imho it's more important to stop the personen. Afterwards I'm still able to change the time. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 20:10, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- I don't quite follow this? You can only block for vandalism for 24 hours? KP Botany 21:31, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- No. But it's my standard block time which is automatically added by my blocking script. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:39, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- So, it doesn't matter that the user has been blocked before and warned that they will be subject to a longer block? I'm still not following the purpose of warning a user they will be subject to a longer block if they return to vandalism, then ignoring that warning and giving them a short block? KP Botany 21:53, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Then I'm able to change it manually before or thereafter. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:55, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- I think you're assuming more knowledge on the issue on my part than I have. The user has been blocked three times. The last blocking admin said that if they "continue to vandalize Wikipedia, the account will be subject to a longer block." But, instead of subjecting them to a longer block, you actually gave them a shorter block. What I'm asking is why you did not give them a longer block for this additional vandalsim as the prior administrator said would happen, but rather gave them a shorter block? I have no idea what relevance there is to your being able to change something manually before or thereafter. All I see is they were told they would be given a longer block, not might be, but would be, and instead of giving them a longer block, you gave them a shorter block. KP Botany 22:10, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- I've not seen alle the other blocks and warnings before and blocked my standard 24 hours, okay? Now I'll or could change it. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:13, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Please look in the future when you block after a request on AIV that says, "prior blocks." What did you think I was talking about when I said, "Why did you block for only 24 hours when the last block was for 72 ....?"[7] Well, I'm getting used to administrators not reading what I said, so no offense taken. I will stop looking at vandal edits, though, since most administrators seem to prefer vandals to regular editors who waste their time on crap like adding references to articles.

- Maybe it was not reported on AIV. I'm fighting vandalism by myself and don't report vandals to AIV. And I don't think that it's needed to explain me how I should block somebody—it's not my first block. … I'm not able to find a mistake if you don't tell me which IP I've blocked—in your opinion—irregularly. Finally, I'm not a native speaker so that I maybe haven't seen your intention. —DerHexer (Talk) 22:27, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Why not ask then which IP I'm talking about, if I didn't say, instead of assuming anything? I reported the vandalism to AIV, and I assumed you blocked the user as a result of that report since it was blocked and the IP removed from AIV right away. Whether you're a native speaker or not your English is up to my first sentence which said "Why did you block for only 24 hours when the last block was for 72...." Answering the question I asked might have alleviated quite a bit of the confusion. Or even reading it, instead of just assuming I was making a routine complaint that you didn't have to even read. But again, I'm used to being ignored by en.wiki admins, in preference to giving leeway to vandals.

- Maybe you're asking me a generic question—If you don't tell me what you want from me I'm not able to do something. I told you that my script has done it and I prefer a blocked vandal rather than an unblocked one. And I don't prefer IPs—that's a false accusation! I've blocked thousands of user, IPs and logged in ones, I don't prefer somebody. Btw, I'm talking to you since hours—why do you feel ignored? And, of course, I read your comments. Atm I feel offended! —DerHexer (Talk) 22:52, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- This isn't a generic question, "Why did you block for only 24 hours when the last block was for 72 and ...." This is talking about a specific incident, namely, "the last block." When you don't answer the question asked, and treat it as a generic post, it's pretty straight-forward to assume it was ignored or not read. That's enough. The vandal's probably a 9-year-old kid, and this is way too much time. It would have been simpler to just answer the question I asked, though. KP Botany 23:07, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Why don't you add a link if you want to show that it isn't a generic question? I'm blocking so much people on de:wp and en: that this might happend twice or thrice in a short time. If YOU want something from me, YOU have to ask me in a way that I'm able to HELP you. The last block(=previous block) is imo the block before my block and not my last block because I think that you don't know what I'm doing at the same time in other projects. But you have arrived it—I'm taking a wiki break because I don't accept it that you are allowed to infantilize and insult me without any excuses. —DerHexer (Talk) 23:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

I didn't add a link because you answered every question I asked as if you knew which user I was talking about, and I didn't realize that I had not included the IP number. The questions I asked were pretty straight-forward, but your answers appeared as if you were just giving me a boiler plate answer to every question without even reading them. I asked questions. My questions were ignored, and given answers about some script you use. One of your supporters attacked me for asking you a question, saying that, "Why did you block for only 24 hours when the last block was for 72 and said ...." was a rude question. It wasn't. It isn't. And you still haven't resolved the issue of the user's block length. And, because you are the blocking admin another admin won't step in. You cannot "infantalize" someone else by asking them a question. You've done everything but address the issue at hand. I stand by my comments and will stop engaging you since it is clear you won't deal with the issue. KP Botany 23:38, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

editI don't understand why you slapped Kjd1704 quite so hard. It seems all they were trying to do was rename an article.

Specially seeing as it is an ex member. I really do not feel like setting up a program to register a few hundred accounts on here using proxies to remove the post over and over. Your friend actually talked to me and we began to work it out.

Why would I not stop? Probably because you didn't stop. Why did you not stop after one or two times? I was attempting to discuss it and was talking to another admin. Your the one who decided they owned wiki and could make any change as me and the other admin were talking. Now I am locked out to make changes. But I am debating on designing a program to take care of that. I ask you to remove it for what I said many times was irrelevance and explained why. We can sit arguing about this for quite sometime or we can come to a logical agreement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.247.231.105 (talk) 16:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

WHAT I DID IS NOT VANDALISM
editWHAT I AM IN THE PROCESS OF DOING IS REWRITING THE ARTICLE "TRANSSEXUALISM" SO THAT IT IS MORE NEUTRAL... WHICH I UNDERSTAND IS IMPORTANT TO WIKIPEDIA.
THE ARTICLE AS IT STOOD WAS NOT NEUTRAL AS IT SEEMD TO REPRESENT THE POINT OF VEIW OF A CERTAIN SEGMENT OF THE TRANSSEXUAL COMMUNITY. A SEGMENT THAT HAS MUCH POWER AND PRIVILLAGE. PLEASE STUDY THIS MATTER FURTHER. --DONT TASER ME BRO. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.168.46.149 (talk) 18:53, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Bain and Company
editHi DerHexer,
I was just editing Bain and Company for Blatant advertising. It usually merits a speedy deletion, but instead I just cut article down to eliminate obvious advertising.
Noticed you reverted these edits. Please take a look and determine if it is indeed blatant advertising. If so, make due changes.
Thanks,

Red Bull BC One, Physicx internal link
editThis is in regard to the recent revert on the Red Bull BC One page. The internal link for Physicx is accurate; there was no additional edit summary on your revert, so I do not know if there was another reason for it, but the edit in question shouldn't be considered vandalism. Please let me know if there were any other issues. --Sesameball 20:09, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Entrenched Vandalism
editHi, normally I wouldn't bother pointing out a mistake like this, but I believe that admins need to be held to a higher standard than other users. Please note that your two reverts as seen here http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ching_chong&action=history did not remove the entrenched vandalism. Please be more careful in the future. Thanks. dfg 20:25, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Interesting. You expect from me to remove vandalism? I saw this edit, made a mistake and reverted myself instantly. I've not seen another vandalism. —DerHexer (Talk) 20:28, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, that's my point. The edit you reverted to was also vandalism. The last safe edit was mine on Sept 19. dfg 21:16, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- I was not able to decide if it's vandalism or not. That's why I removed my edit so that an expert who is watching this article can fix it. I've made no mistake—I've made a zero byte change. —DerHexer (Talk) 21:23, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Either way, you failed to remove the vandalism. And yes, that is what I expect from admins, especially ones who state such on their userpages. dfg 21:58, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Do you have an idea how much vandalism can be found here? … Not even all admins together would be able to fix it immediately. Reflect what you're saying resp. expecting from us! —DerHexer (Talk) 22:03, 20 September 2007 (UTC) Btw.: Have a look how much vandalism I remove.
- I see; you're more concerned with quantity than quality. That's fine. Cheers. dfg 18:35, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Removing vandalism is not a type quality protection? Interesting, —DerHexer (Talk) 08:02, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- I see; you're more concerned with quantity than quality. That's fine. Cheers. dfg 18:35, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- how many revisions of each article do you expect an admin to check? 10? 50? 100? all of them? -- ∂ 22:20, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Wonderful to see a concerned third-party. Merely one minute of time spent looking at the string of edits by unregistered users reveals the entrenched vandalism. In addition, when an admin reverts to a version, most inexperienced and novice users will fall victim to the argument from authority fallacy regarding its legitimacy. My point is that Wikipedians invested with extra authority should also be a bit more cautious and responsible. dfg 18:35, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Solar power vandalism
editHello. You gave me a vandalism warning at 24.85.246.143. I'm not sure which edit this was for but I can guess it had to do with a revert. I've been working on the solar power page lately. Recently I've been dealing with a IP address troll at 199.125.109.134. This guy has been reverting the lead paragraph and header pictures over and over again. He's also been harassing me directly which is a new to me on Wikipedia. His behavior is passive/aggressive, very frustrating and very time consuming. I think a comparison of edits on the page bears out my points. If I am in the wrong please tell me.24.85.246.143 16:40, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
