Vandalism how-to page

edit

If you see the top, its wiki humour. Also, at the bottom it clearly says: Just dont do it and thats how you dont get banned! ErrrDacheatcode 13:12, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Favour...

edit

Hey Riana,

I'm writing regarding the fact that I have acquired two websites, who have accepted my request to supply Wikipedia with images. I'm not sure how to carry on, so as per Blofeld's recommendation I have approached you to assist me. I would like a license such as this one, with Kollywoodtoday.com and Behindwoods.com [1]. If you want photograpjhic/written evidence of their acceptance please ask!

Thank You, RSAP

Ok, which template? Universal Hero 20:10, 12 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Homeopathy again

edit

Sorry to bother you, and I hope I don't make you regret ever having waded into the morass that is alternative medicine. The user who was edit warring – and who caused you to protect homeopathy the first time around – is now trying to bait other editors: [2]. He may be upset about the extant RfC on his conduct (Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Whig 2). As a neutral third party, could you have a word with him? He's digging a pit for himself. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 14:50, 13 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

The RfC seems to be doing an OK job of providing neutral third party opinions but I'll keep an eye out. ~ Riana 17:57, 13 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Urgent help :)

edit

Hiya Riana, I don't know if you remember me - you welcomed me when I arrived here. There is a user who has been attacking my profile page. Other people have helped but I thought maybe you could confirm how you created my account for me in order to put this so called "Check user" to bed. I'm not here for conflict. Please help! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/Danny_17 --Danny 17 13:31, 14 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi, Would you be able to provide me with the last revision by me of the deleted article The Big Withdraw. If you could, could you please past all of the code into, User:The-G-Unit-Boss/Sandbox. Thanks!. --¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤ 18:05, 15 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

For your contribution to My RfA, which passed with 8000 Supports, 2 Neutrals and no opposes.    

The standards and dedication of the English Wikipeidan Administrators is excellent and I am privileged to stand among them. Thankyou for putting you trust in me, I'll not see it abused. Also, special thanks for having supported me twice, on my first and on my latest RfA. It’s people like you that keep me coming back to this wacky-white-world. And now, I will dance naked around a fire. Party at my place! Cheers! Dfrg.msc 08:03, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

I will, dear Riana! I've blocked someone already, gave 'em 24 hours. Oh, that'll make them think about vandalizing the Incredible Hulk article again and again. Is there.. um... like a manual, I can read? Or like a a tool box? Save me from myself! Dfrg.msc 10:16, 16 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

SSP case

edit

There's no SSP case for Runtshit (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), just a category. When I added the SSP case for Bite Me Rance11 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), I didn't know it was linked to Runtshit. If I see more "Bite Me Rance" users, do I just add them to the category? How do I assure they will be blocked?

Thanks --Tckma 19:47, 16 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sorry about the late response, I was offline. Reporting to AIV should be enough, just say whose socks they are and they'll get blocked pretty quick :) ~ Riana 05:13, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Userpage Question

edit

Hello...I have a slight problem that maybe you all might be able to help with. The little "menu" at the top of my userpage that has a time, links to my talk page, contribs and the like, and a little saying is normally right in between the line at the top of the page, for some reason it is slid way down (you will see what I mean) and I am not sure how to fix it. If you or DarkFalls could help, I would appericate it. (Sorry for the bad explanation). - NeutralHomer T:C 22:45, 16 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I asked User:Ryan Postlethwaite, since you were offline (no worries there) and he fixed it right up. Many thanks though :) - NeutralHomer T:C 01:52, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

review

edit

Hi Riana I am a new user on wikipedia and I was wondering if you would review my article to help me make it better. I chose you because I saw that you helped others or made edits to other articles related to mine. I just wrote an article on the national dairy checkoff.

protection request

edit

Hi Riana, could you please reprotect my page? Somehow the protection got lost, and I don't know how. I hope that semiprotection will do. Thanks a bunch! --Kyoko 15:06, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey Kyoko - Alison deleted and restored your userpage and the protection got lost in the process. Reprotected. I've replied to your e-mails too, hope you got them (and if not something's still wrong with my mail... ) ~ Riana 15:11, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, Riana. Did you just send your replies? I've not gotten anything from you in over a week. Speaking of deleted pages, your own page seems to be missing. If you want something austere but functional, might I suggest adapting my "toolbar" (the bar with the links on my page) for your purposes? I've seen other admins' pages, where they divide links by categories (deletions, etc.) I'm just not used to seeing blank userpages, but it's up to you of course. Thanks again for reprotecting my page! --Kyoko 15:21, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
No worries! I sent my replies... yesterday. :/ I've restored my userpage - I was pretty much just doing what Allie did with yours, bit of WP:DENY at work. :) ~ Riana 15:23, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
OK, perhaps you should try resending the replies, then. I must have looked at your page right after you deleted it. I understand what you mean by WP:DENY. --Kyoko 15:33, 17 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Block

edit

Please can you block the IP address of this user permanently. He has disrupted many articles and the last vandalising went unnoticed -the important British Army article. He ought to be blocked indefinately as he has had at least ten temporary blocks in the past and not listened to one of them ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 12:55, 18 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

We don't usually block IPs indefinitely unless they're open proxies, but I've blocked it for 6 months. ~ Riana 13:00, 18 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

User talk:81.97.215.109 is also a problem for the Bollywood articles and has recieved many warnings. The disruption of these actor pages by anonymous IP's is a nuisance. Perhaps this user could get a longer block than 24 hours. Thanks ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 14:32, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Need help on Commons

edit

Hi, Riana - need help on Commons with Commons:User:Tupto, who is apparently a sock of the banned User:Roitr. Uploading copyvio there that has been deleted from en Wikipedia, and removing speedy deletion tags. Videmus Omnia Talk 01:30, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Oh dear... maybe try going to commons:COM:AN/V as Riana seems to be away at the moment... (probably shopping :p) *runs*--DarkFalls talk 08:21, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Riana, thanks for the help - yes, all of his uploads there are copyvio from http://www.uniforminsignia.net; I'll restore the speedy tags again. Videmus Omnia Talk 14:23, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Riana, I'd appreciate it if you could just delete the images. This vandal is incredibly persistent, both here and on Commons. I can have the accounts blocked when they pop up, but once the images are uploaded, he uses dynamic IPs to remove the speedy tags and I sometimes have to revert multiple times before an admin gets around to working the deletion category. I don't know if the image names can be salted here and/or on Commons (Roitr always uploads images under the same filenames.) Videmus Omnia Talk 17:13, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Get Firefox! :) Also if you've been an admin involved with AIV for a while (I'm into my 8th month now) you know that you can get away without analysing every single report, if they come from certain users. I don't check the bot reports mostly, and users like MER-C, Gurch, Oxymoron83 and a few others can always be trusted to give reliable reports. ~ Riana 17:14, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hello I am concerned that a User:Universal Hero has obtained permission to use images from kollywoodtoday and has this permission registered in the OTRS register. This user has at least 2x provided incorrect copyright information and once lied about it. I think its possible this user has faked the permission from Kollywoodtoday.com. Does any check with kollywoodtoday take place beyond this user's contact with them when the permission has been uploaded into OTRS? What would be the best way to proceed?

Previous copyvio's

I also raised a sockpuppetry case as this user seems to be extremely similar to another (few) users who were banned for copyright issues, including faking OTRS information Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Universal Hero

protection request

Hi Riana, are you online? Would you mind fully protecting User:Kyoko? I want to try out that userpage trick. Thanks. --Kyoko 01:53, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Done! ~ Riana 02:05, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the tip! The code for my page looks so funny over there! Not as funny as seeing Jimbo staring back at me, but still... If cascading protection is in effect, would unprotecting User:Kyoko/Header work, or would that let anybody change it? --Kyoko 02:19, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Ah, forgot to cascade protect, I'll do that now. But unprotecting the header will work if it's cascade protected, yep. ~ Riana 02:20, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Actually I took off cascade protection because it protects anything you have transcluded on your userpage.css - meaning it protects your header so you can't write in it, and it protects the defcon so other people can't update it. Instead I've moved your header to User:Kyoko/header.css and transcluded it into User:Kyoko/Header and protected that, so that only you can change your header once again. Hope that helps :) ~ Riana 02:25, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Now I'm confused. If I want to change my header, I change User:Kyoko/header.css, right? --Kyoko 02:31, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Yep! :) ~ Riana 02:31, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Riana I understand what you're trying to accomplish, but there is no point in giving this troll a voice any longer. The account was created for one purpose and one purpose only. By asking for a helpful article I'm afraid you're just feeding the trolls (even though you do not mean to). Burntsauce 17:24, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I admit I was toying with them a bit when I left that answer, because I know nothing good's going to come from there... I'll just revert and protect. ~ Riana 17:27, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Recent blocks

Hi Rianna,
First of, thanks a lot for blocking the 4 or so vandals i have reported the last hour. However, i noticed that the user pages of these vandals aren't updated with a blocked warning. Yet the helperbot does report theyr are blocked a day in the revision hostory of the admin intervention page. Is this a bug, accident, or intentional? --Excirial 09:30, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi Excirial, this is merely because I have grown excessively lazy in updating the talkpage with a block notice. I have to pull my socks up, apologies. ~ Riana 09:36, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Veropedia thanks

Hi Riana, I thought you might be about to sleep (not sure about time zone diff) so I asked Alison (not sure when she wakes up). Thanks. I was going to upload pulmonary hypertension but I need to fix it more. --Kyoko 11:41, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

You know, that parser is very picky with refs. :( --Kyoko 11:55, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
I keep getting this:
</ref>, found in the article. A ref appears before a period, comma, or semi-colon. Please move the reference to after the period, comma, or semi-colon.
It's hard to go through a long article to find those.
And about that e-mail... sorry I said so much. --Kyoko 12:14, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
I just tried. It doesn't work. Thanks for the finding tip, and thanks for understanding. Kyoko 12:32, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
I don't think Veropedia is checking the latest version. Maybe a server thing? --Kyoko 12:41, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Still no. --Kyoko 12:46, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Parser is a freaking goddamn nutcase fascist, never fails to drive me crazy. As regards </ref>, - to fix that, try running a search for the string in the edit mode, that should catch them. If it still doesn't work try another search for </ref>. Cheers, Moreschi Talk 12:47, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I think whatever server Veropedia is checking has an old revision, because I did all that. --Kyoko 12:57, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
This will sound selfish, but I would like to upload that article myself, because it's something I helped write. So please don't do it before me. Thanks. --Kyoko 13:01, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Guys - I'm actively working on cleaning up the parser right now. Hope to have something done over the weekend here - Alison 17:03, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

It still doesn't work. It says "Category:All articles with unsourced statements". I need to take a look. --Kyoko 23:54, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
The vero folks have a web-to-irc link set up. Click here and we could meet you in the vero channel. It's anonymous and there's no chance of 'leakage' - Alison 00:00, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

A user contends that the images he keeps putting in the article are fair use and I disagree. Can I get your opinion. youngamerican (wtf?) 18:47, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

They are fair use, Why would you remove them if you don't have suitable replacements? Before you revert/remove, take it to the discussion page. That's why it's there.Sixstring1965 21:34, 26 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey Rama!!

Hey Rama, Raima, or whatever your name is, keep your nose out of my business and tend to your own affairs. If I want to post a message on users David-A or Gaashooru's talk pages, that my business, stay out of it!!!!--69.132.96.215 02:46, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have no idea what that's about, but does it have any relationship to this user, who has a similar vocabulary? -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 03:03, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
No, it doesn't. It has to do with this user. Who unfortunately seems to be back. Time to keep an eye on the comics-based pages again... Gscshoyru 03:46, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
It would have been very little trouble to look at the top of the page to the big black letters, but I guess coming up with a catchy new account name was absorbing all your attention at the time? ~ Riana 09:07, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Rama? Well I think someone's a little confused about the gender... --DarkFalls talk 11:20, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
It's ok. At least the name he calls you is slightly similar to your username. You should see what he calls me. Gscshoyru 11:29, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
