editWelcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you.--Anonymous101 (talk) 19:52, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

editPlease do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Purgatory. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. AlexiusHoratius 02:18, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions, including your edits to Jared Polis. However, please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not be libelous. Any controversial statements about a living person added to an article, or any other Wikipedia page, must include proper sources. Thank you. Link given is not a proper source. Sophitessa (talk) 05:38, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
December 2009
editPlease do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Goldman Sachs. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. NeilN talk to me 03:38, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Welcome!
editWelcome to Wikipedia, Nwerle! I am The New Mikemoral and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

editThank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Richard T. Castro. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also useful when reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. It leaves a lot of questions of what you did and don't forget the preview button. Take a look at WP:REF also. Regards, The New Mikemoral ♪♫ 22:21, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
- Please remember to use an edit summary with each edit, major or minor. --The New Mikemoral ♪♫ 01:15, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Tim Tebow, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Eagles 24/7 (C) 16:59, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
what commentary did I add? I added a FACT. njw 18:12, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Your recent edits
editHello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 18:31, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:08, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
POV are also not to be on Talk pages. 4 tildes is a wasteful code. njw 20:22, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- They are allowed on talk pages, just not on the actual article. However, you are not allowed to change what other people wrote on the talk page to make it seem like they said something different. User:Zeng8r has a right to his opinion that what you said on his talk page was "rather rude". What would you change the four tildes to for signing? Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:28, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- use || or @~ or _+ or etc. --njw 21:26, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Jared Polis. There is a Manual of Style that should be followed. Thank you. Please ensure that your grammatical changes do not change the meaning of the text. In this case you changed "based" to "centered". The subject refers to the Congressman, not to the district. His main office is in Boulder, therefore he is based in Boulder. Additionally, you introduced a run-on sentence with a fact that was only tangentially related to the paragraph, and improperly formatted the reference. See WP:CITE for more information on how to cite sources. Janus303 (talk) 04:04, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
Other Colorado congressmen are not identified in Wikipedia as having a "base" city, see John_Salazar. Not to mention other congressmen which are BASED in WASHINGTON D.C. anyway. njw 05:58, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- I moved the cost of his election to a section down below. nocustomdontknowhow 06:26, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
Please do not attack other editors, as you did here: User talk:Eagles247. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Eagles 24/7 (C) 21:48, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
I will defend my self when I am attacked , I dare you to show me how to appeal to a higher up your scurilous attacks. gadfly 22:01, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- Please tell me exactly how I have attacked you. I'm curious. Eagles 24/7 (C) 22:02, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- I will never discuss anything with you. gadfly46 22:56, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- Fine, but you can't say that I attacked you then. Eagles 24/7 (C) 23:13, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
Tebow
editI am replying here, because it seems that User:Zeng8r wants to keep Tebow's talkpage free of bantering, which is fine. It looks like your first edit was in 2006. Logging in with a name is the same as creating an account. And when you speak in gibberish, no one can understand what you are saying. Eagles 24/7 (C) 21:29, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Please stop deleting comments from talk pages
editI've reverted you here [1], in the future, please do not remove other people's comments from talk pages. In adition, if you want to remove your own comments, it's best to "strike" them with the button above ("str" with a line through it on the toolbar). That will make your comments look like this. That way, people can still follow the discussion and comments made in response to your original post will still have context. Good luck. Dayewalker (talk) 03:56, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
- are you saying I did not removed my own comments? give me names of thsoe whose comments I removed. Gadfly46 00:15, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- They were MY comments , and the toolbar does NOT have a str with a line through it - its typical of you "editors" that never give the right information! — Preceding unsigned comment added by GADFLY46 (talk • contribs)
- No, they weren't all your comments. Please don't delete comments from talk pages once other people have commented on them, in any case. If you can't see the button on your toolbar, you can strike comments by placing <s> and </s> around them. Dayewalker (talk) 17:34, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
- What appears after the "#R" button on your toolbar? --NeilN talk to me 17:36, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
- there is NO #R button! Gadfly46 00:06, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- Did you even look? Eagles 24/7 (C) 00:10, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- if it had been your comment I would not have looked since I know you lie. Gadfly46 00:13, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- I have never lied to you before, and do not plan on doing so. When other editors try to help you out here, it is generally suggested that you either (a) listen to their advice or (b) don't listen, but it's your own fault if you do something wrong. You seem to take the second path, except you blame us for not telling you about policies. Might I suggest that you have an open-mind when dealing with people, because not everyone has the same views as you and they are just trying to help out. Thanks, Eagles 24/7 (C) 00:18, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- I just checked out your image, are you editing in Beta? Eagles 24/7 (C) 00:20, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- how do you see my image when I cant see it! Gadfly46 00:59, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
- Please do stop changing old content on talk pages. Talk pages are there so that editors can discuss improvements to an article, gain consensus, etc., and it's important that what has already been said is preserved so that if there is a conflict everyone can easily see the history of an article.

- ~ D'UH!!!! gadfly46 17:32, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- The thing that is most interesting to me is that he immediately knew how to request unblock even though he has never been blocked before. And if he was caught in an IP block, wouldn't he have placed to unblock template on that talkpage? Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:54, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
- when you are blocked INSTRUCTIONS are right there inline! are you really that dumb? gadfly46 17:32, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- Try to be civil with your comments. When users make uncivil remarks, they generally lose respect within the community and you are only hurting yourself. The "instructions" are only given to you when you are blocked on that account, so it looks like the block template was applied to your IP, and you copied and pasted the unblock template on here. Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:21, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- you were the one being uncivil accusing me of knowing all aobut blocking! gadfly46 22:56, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- I wasn't being uncivil, I was just saying that it is interesting. Eagles 24/7 (C) 23:02, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

This user seems to also have another user name: User:Nwerle Perhaps that's causing some confusion?... Zeng8r (talk) 23:45, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
- His account was renamed, but it appears that he can still login as Nwerle. Eagles 24/7 (C) 23:46, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Coiba Cacique
editA tag has been placed on Coiba Cacique requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

editPlease stop. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, such as Coiba Cacique, you will be blocked from editing. If you need guidance on how to create appropriate pages, try using the Article Wizard. You have been here long enough to know better. Burpelson AFB (talk) 00:37, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- You created an article that consisted of you asking a question. Wikipedia is not a chat forum. Given your response to me as well as the many notices on your talk page, I have serious concerns regarding your ability to edit Wikipedia competently. Burpelson AFB (talk) 00:53, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- I clicked on the BLUE Tab Discussion which is normal HTML for the tab with FOCUS, I dont care if your software screwed up and went to article tab. and I dont SIgn entries of article only discussion! I have serious concerns of your ability to read! gadfly46 00:59, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia! I am glad to see you are interested in discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:Felipillo are for discussion related to improving the article, not general discussion about the topic. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you. Eagles 24/7 (C) 00:56, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Decline reason:
Looks fine to me. Could you be more specific? Kuru (talk) 15:29, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- he did not provide specific detials, he never contacted me prior to block DUH!!
gadfly46 07:10, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
- There is no need to contact users who cause severe disruption like you. There is no policy that states the blocking admin needs to contact the user beforehand. There was a discussion at the Administrator's Noticeboard about your behavior, and consensus was that you should be blocked indefinitely. Eagles 24/7 (C) 16:12, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
Actually, there is TONS of helpful advice, repeated warnings, and links to wikipedia policies all over this very talk page, not to mention on the talk pages of articles all over this project where you had various issues. Claiming that you weren't contacted about these ongoing problems is disingenuous at best, imo. Zeng8r (talk) 16:41, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
- I've revoked your talk page access for a whole bunch of nonsense you added there. You can email an admin if you want to start another unblock request. SGGH ping! 22:35, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
File source problem with File:Toolbard.JPG
editThanks for uploading File:Toolbard.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:43, 7 April 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7.
