Re: Request

Sure, I can try to help you. What seems to be the problem? --Clarkcj12 (talk) 22:23, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

well i would like a substitution template made where usage would be a simple

Edit War Prestige Star I award this Edit War Prestige Star to Wikipedian for participating in and surviving The Great Conflagration of November 01, 2024. MiszaBot III (talk) 14:17, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

with the body of the message pre-configured. I feel confident i could do the documentation. I would like there to be a tiered message for the revert count such as

A paltry 3 reverts
A combative 4 reverts
An unheard of 5 reverts
An astonishing 6 reverts
etc. list to TBDGeremy Hebert (talk | contribs)

I will see what I can do. --Clarkcj12 (talk) 22:42, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

So, you don't want people to be able to change the reason? I have got parts of it configured, though I need to think about how to do the reverts thing like you ask. If you want you can take a look at User:Clarkcj12/Edit War Prestiege for the sample. What do you think so far? --Clarkcj12 (talk) 23:08, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Now that you mention yes the. Tobymac was just the first one i used it on and filled out the reason in the comical fashion I liked, also differentiates it from other awards. It would be generic The Great (insert_event) Conflagration of (insert month and date)..I know it may be difficult or unwieldy for users to have this many variables. Your thoughts? Again I literally just [|made the thing today] and it's got a good vibe I wanna see it through. Definitely an original contribution of ours if/when we get it hammered out.Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs)

I've got this part done and will fill it out before final release maybe reword it too. Any additions?

Image	What to type	Description
	{{subst:Edit War Prestige|message ~~~~}}	The Edit War Prestige Star Award is a medal given to editors on the front lines fighting vandalism. When multiple reverts are required before an Administrator can be notified and react. Award designed by Geremy.Hebert, template by Clarkcj12 and introduced on February xx, 2013.

Well, it doesn't excatly work like that see the documentation I have created. I still can't figure out how to if you do the revert numbers how to make it change what it says. I am not that advanced. But anyways, here is the Usage of it:

{{subst:User:Clarkcj12/Edit War Prestiege
|to=User
|event=
|sig=
}}

For an explanation of the params read the documentation page. Let me know what you think. --Clarkcj12 (talk) 00:17, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah it was just a generic copy/paste I started. I'm so happy man that it got this far. Mind if I tinker with it and then I'll create the template page and subpage. I really appreciate this man, good stuff. What i was doing was looking through other awards to see if I could find one with variables but stopped and contacted you. There's bound to be a way so I'll keep at it. If that fails then I'll revert to a regular message with Example:

Edit War Prestige Star I award this Edit War Prestige Star to Clarkcj12 for participating in and surviving The Great Edit War Template Conflagration of November 2024. An unheard of 5 reverts were exchanged. Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 00:35, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs)

looks like the answer may be around in here | advanced templates wish me luck :)Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs)

Okay, good luck. I will let you know if I find something that will make it work. --Clarkcj12 (talk) 02:38, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

new topic

Haha, well i was completely wrong with that regarding articles obviously. OK. Blame me! ..oh wait, you already do 8D. Enjoy then, but the issue was about talkpages anyway, not about Articles. --Kharon2 (talk) 21:40, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

Rollback

After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback can be used to revert vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback may be removed at any time.

If you do not want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message on my talk page if you have any questions. Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 20:01, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

My edits

Hello, my edits in "List of awards and nominations received by Queen" are not wrong or vandalism, my edits are indeed correct! In fact, I don't know how to put the citation in the right way, but maybe you can help me.

For the Grammy Awards, you can see that most things are in respective related wikipedia articles. The main source is: http://www.awardsandshows.com/grammy-awards.html

The American Music Award information is contained in the respective wikipedia article of 1981.

The information about Brit Awards: http://www.brits.co.uk/artist/queen

Before accusing me of vandalism, you should check the reliability of my sources!141.2.185.13 (talk) 23:02, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

In all honesty I was trying to fix the meow someone inserted and fix what it broke diff found here. I must have clicked on the wrong talk page link to leave the vandalism message, forgive me.Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 23:11, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

OK. Just one question: Do you have any questions about my edits in the "Queen awards" page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.2.185.13 (talk) 23:19, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

No I don't have any question pertaining to that. The things I would like to talk to you about while I have your attention are as follows;

• Register and work up a user page and talk page (keep it brief, maybe something about how much you love Queen). That would have made me stop and think twice before leaving the vandalism message.
• Sign your posts please on talk pages.
• Link rot- many of your references are deadlinks. Look here for a way to avoid that from happening.
• What citation help do you need?

Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 23:34, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

I have posted my request ("My recent edits") on the talk-page of "awards for queen". There I posted the sources I used for my edits. Maybe you can put these sources to the article. Because I don't know how to put them in the right way, according to wikipedia standards.141.2.185.13 (talk) 23:47, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Admin help request

Hello, Geremy. I have answered your request for help at Template talk:WelcomeMessage. JamesBWatson (talk) 21:00, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

Dany Bahar

Hi Geremy. I have new content and references to be added to the Dany Bahar Wikipedia article. What's the easiest way of implementing these changes given that Dany Bahar is a client of mine? I could upload the changes to my Sandbox for you to review if that's easier? Let me know and thanks in advance Vivj2012 (talk) 15:22, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

I see you've made edit's to the article already that are clearly efforts to control vandalism. Wikipedia's policy regarding COI and paid advocates states that Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question. So post the planned changes on Talk:Dany_Bahar described as accurately as possible in it's own new section and I'll Pro sign my approval or mark details I feel might be found to have issues. It won't be a consensus but at least you had someone look them over to cover your butt.Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 15:58, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your feedback Geremy and coming back so quickly. I'll put the proposed changes on the article Talk page and let you know once this has been done. Thanks again for your help with this Vivj2012 (talk) 15:09, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi Geremy, I've added the suggested content to the Talk Page of the Dany Bahar Wikipedia article, if you could let me know your thoughts. Thanks Vivj2012 (talk) 17:02, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Ok I'll be looking them over today.Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 17:07, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

I've updated the references as you've asked, apologies for not doing so in the first place. Let me know what you think of the proposed changes. Thanks Vivj2012 (talk) 13:00, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

Help request

Hello Geremy. I have responded to your request for help at Talk:Dany Bahar. --Drm310 (talk) 03:45, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Miriam Makeba

Hi Jeremy, thanks for your edit to Miriam Makeba. However, the text that you removed from the article was not vandalism ; it shouldn't be in the article, however. See this talk page thread for more details. Graham87 14:32, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

My birth name is spelled Geremy :p just thought I'd mention that in light of the situation. I try to check everything I can before I do something on Wikipedia, especially one regarding a Bio. I saw that the anon IP user that made the edit had only one contribution so I reverted thinking it was a rude gesture.Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 14:44, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

We should put her full name in the article somewhere out of respect. You cite a valid enough reference, even if it's a full article only available to Time subscribers.Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 14:53, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

LOL, sorry about the misspelling! As you have probably read on my user page (and in the thread I linked above), I'm totally blind, so didn't notice that. Yes it would be nice to mention her full name or praise name or whatever it is, but we'd need a source that puts it in its proper context. Graham87 15:10, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

BTW, Time put its articles behind a paywall relatively recently, so back when the talk page thread was active, the article was available to everybody for free. The article didn't say much beyond what is described in the thread. Graham87 15:16, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Dany Bahar

Hi Geremy, I've made changes to the passage under discussion on the talk page, updating the references in line with your suggestions (the German-language ones having been agreed to yesterday by Sandstein), and removing peacock terms. Let me know your thoughts - many thanks. Vivj2012 (talk) 15:06, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Recent edits at Talk:Amiram Goldblum

Note that this IP editor, whose edit you restored, is now blocked for one year for editing through a proxy. It is possible that this is the banned user Runtshit, who has been attacking people and Wikipedia editors who he considers to be anti-Zionist for a long time. It would help to avoid further dispute if you would remove the IP edit that you restored. In case you think the link to isracampus.org is worthy of discussion on the talk page, you can add a mention of it in your own words. In any case, it is advisable to remove the line "Goldblum denounced by Maariv as a serial liar and a compulsive defamer of Israel" per WP:BLP. At most this is the assertion of an op-ed writer in Maariv (newspaper), not the view of the newspaper. And we have no English-language source to confirm that the wording is correct.

Input Social Market Economy

Hello Geremy.Hebert, you have given your input on the discussion of a possible lead. To finally find a consensus version (almost) everyone can agree upon there is a (hopefully) final attempt at Talk:Social_market_economy#working_on_Lead_consensus to make a one for all version. I whant to invite you to probably make changes on that final version (e.g. that Germany's recovery has been attributed to the development of a social market economy) and finally give a thumb up or down. --Pass3456 (talk) 20:11, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

No I'm afraid I won't be going back to that circus. I see it's even worse now with christian socialism dragged into the mire. I abhor two of the editors and their contrived nonsensical charade of an understanding and will not interact with them in any fashion if at all possible. So for what it's worth you can take my support for Lead Variant 6 from here if it helps. I'm sorry I just can't deal with some of those involved, I don't know how you put up with it.Geremy Hebert (talk | contribs) 20:54, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

I understand that. I´m an Wikipedian since 2008 and since then have learned that from time to time you need endless patientence. But if you are endlessly patient everywhere it totally weares you out. --Pass3456 (talk) 21:32, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
