Welcome!

Some cookies to welcome you!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Lustralaustral! I 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! Also, 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! Tommy²⁰¹⁰ 21:40, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

They aren't brief mentions

Only one of the books is a brief mention. He goes by three different names: the name of the article, Bapuji, and Swami Kripalu. There is also a whole page devoted to the person as the 5th reference. Joe Chill (talk) 22:53, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

• A few mentions in obscure books and a yoga website, this isn't a notable individual. Maybe there's a yoga wiki that might like this dross. Lustralaustral (talk) 23:00, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
  • They aren't trivial mentions. Also, the books and the website are reliable sources. WP:N mentions reliable sources, nothing about obscure sources. Joe Chill (talk) 23:02, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
    • No, they're shit, you're barmy if you think this swami is notable. Lustralaustral (talk) 23:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

June 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on User talk:Lustralaustral. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. You are welcome to rephrase your comment as a civil criticism of the article. Thank you. Joe Chill (talk) 23:26, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

• Oh dear you do have a fragile little ego don't you. Lustralaustral (talk) 23:27, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
  • Well, I reported you to ANI. Joe Chill (talk) 23:39, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
    • Good for you, I expect you'll get a barnstar for your dilligence. Lustralaustral (talk) 23:42, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Baiting

Stop baiting. There's a difference between a throwaway colloquialism and provoking on an ANI board. You can consider yourself sternly advised not to bait or badger other users. S.G.^(GH) _ping! 00:20, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

• Thank you for your stern advice. I've never indulged in badger baiting, as a cull is imminent it seems rather unnecessary. Lustralaustral (talk) 00:33, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Kripalvananda

you tagged Kripalvananda for speedy deletion as a repost of an article deleted after AfD. The new article is in fact distinctly different from the one deleted following Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Swami Kripalvanandji, and not a repost of the same article. However, you are, of course, free to start another AfD for the new version if you wish. JamesBWatson (talk) 08:24, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Your comments on Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Bsadowski1

I noticed two of your comments to Bsadowski1's RfA ([1] [2]), and wanted to leave a suggestion to try to be more civil in your comments on RfAs (and in general). RfAs tend to be very stressful on the applicant, and it is best to keep criticism in the oppose section constructive, or not include it at all. Personal attacks on editors tend to discourage them, and make Wikipedia a less fun place to be. Thanks, and let me know if I can do anything for you - Prodego ^talk 00:40, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

• You can indeed do something for me, can you wire me $10,000 via Western Union, it's for encylopedia starved African orphans. Lustralaustral (talk) 00:49, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

• Haha, well I'll see what I can do. Prodego ^talk 01:00, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

AN/I

Your comment to Alison was very close to disruption and trolling, if not already there. Combined with your previous one, and calling two AFDs subject unelected nobodies, consider this a final warning for disruptive editing and WP:BLP violations. Courcelles (talk) 00:45, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Comment on your activity on ANI

This comment seems to me like obvious trolling and POINTy disruption. Please relax your tone and comment in a more constructive manner. Thank you. --Chris (talk) 01:18, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

• Yes it was terribly disruptive, I'm surprised Wikipedia managed to survive the outbreak of disorder it provoked. Lustralaustral (talk) 01:39, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Blocked

You are blocked for block evasion, abuse of multiple accounts, and disruptive editing. This is a {{Checkuser block}}, any reviewing admins please converse with a checkuser before considering any unblock requests. Risker (talk) 02:43, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

I was considering such a block anyway. A checkuser block is excellent news; thanks Risker. SHEFFIELDSTEEL^TALK 21:04, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
