I would like to thank you for fixing the vandalism to my user page/talk page, and for dealing with Noob101. I am glad that there are people like you out there to fix things like this. PS: while on the subject of Noob101, He made a category: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedians_who_are_failures and there is still another user in that category Eskimo14 Noob101 also appears to have vandalised their page, and pasted some text from my user page onto Eskimo14's.

Anyways.. Thankyou again, Mootoog 02:42, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

EDIT: Thankyou for deleting Category:Wikipedians_who_are_failures. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mootoog (talk • contribs).

Thanks for letting me know. I don't think we are in the process of doing so, but I will point out your request on the ArbCom mailing list so that others are aware, and if we do decide to do something. Thanks again. Flcelloguy (A note?) 03:11, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I would like to see this image, but I think I know what image tag it needs. I looked at the user's talk page who uploaded it, and it seems he doesn't know that much about uploading image. Asking because the image is related to Tokyo Mew Mew, and I usually edit articles related to it. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 03:10, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

I would for you to also restore Image:DSC07809.JPG. This would be the first time I've asked anyone to restore an image to add an image tag, so I first wanted to make I did it right with Image:Gba hamepane.jpg. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 13:06, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, but I'm 100% bot-free: I wouldn't know HOW to program/create/run one to begin with, considering the last time I did any programming I had to use punch cards. It's all Firefox tabs, pop-ups, copy-and-paste, and a list derived from the deletion log and run through some search-and-replace terms to create a list. I believe the technical term is "kludge".

See User:Calton/Testbed right now for a sample of the lists I use -- normally I don't save these in Wikipedia, just work out of Preview mode, but I thought you might need to see. Note that existing Talk pages, being in blue, pop right out. --Calton | Talk 02:04, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Just in case any of you haven't seen the new bot request to track the bot approvals process, this is just a reminder to use the correct templates at {{BAG Admin Tools}} so the bot can correctly identify the stage of bot approval. Also, the approved requests section has been moved to a separate page at Wikipedia:Bots/Approved bot requests for the Bureaucrats to watchlist.

Thanks for the help. The criteria is not just the striken ones. For the ones that have not been striken, the corresponding article in the sandbox must be checked to see if it is not part of any category and then deleted. For example, User:Ganeshbot/sandbox/Amroha. It has been de-categorized. It is complete and has just not been striken off the list. It would be great if those can be deleted too. Thanks, Ganeshk (talk) 04:38, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

That will be fine! -- Ganeshk (talk) 05:12, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

I think that some sort of error occurred. I just noticed that a new article Allahabad was created, which I found odd as I had edited it several times. After looking at the deleted article I saw that you had deleted it based on Wikipedia:Bot requests#Deletion request and User:Ganeshbot/Not created. It looks as if it was the only article deleted and I restored it, so no harm done. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 12:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

That error occurred because the sandbox article had been redirected to the actual article and thus you deleted the actual article by mistake. I have deleted the redirected sandbox article. — Lost^(talk) 00:43, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

You are currently editing a a VERY HIGH rate of speed. This can cause flooding of watchlists and recent changes. To edit at this speed, you should use a flagged BOT account. Would you have another option for these bulk CSD nominations, such as creating a list?

Oh for the love of God. Look, the only "bots" -- as I've already told you -- I'm using are Firefox tabs and the CTL-V key, and I think Wikipedia can, somehow, survive 100 or so unambiguous deletion tags, give that CSD frequently jumps up to several hundred entries at a time, which it's nowhere to that level now. --Calton | Talk 01:19, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

The way the orphaned talk pages are found is through the human eyeball -- unless you want to write some sort of script that finds them. Go to it, it'll save a lot of trouble, but until then, this is how I'm doing it.

As for my errors, that's five or so out of -- what? -- 1-2,000 that I've tagged. Considering that the error rate for the deleting admins -- who should have been deleting the pages to begin with instead of relying upon people like me to sweep up after them -- is closer to 1% to 5%, depending, perhaps your advice has higher priority targets. --Calton | Talk 01:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

...but instead of creating all of these edits, could you achieve the same affect by just posting all these links in a single page?

Fine idea, except for being completely unworkable. To see, take a look at the list above: I want you take it, reading it Edit mode, and extract ONLY the blue links onto a separate list. Now repeat that for a list of 5-10,000 items. Clicking a link in front of you? Much faster. --Calton | Talk 02:05, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Are you getting these off of the deletion log? Where you would see entries such as:

*2007-03-25T01:54:33 User:Betacommand (Talk | contribs | block) deleted "DF Army" (Deleting page per CSD A1: Empty article.)

And just picking all the blue links, going to that page, then editing that page?

You're not paying attention: NO, I am not simply going to Deletion log and hitting blue links, as a quick glance -- in Edit mode, as I told you -- at the list I pasted in above would show. Since you don't seem to want to hit that button, the text:

• 18:41 11/27 Betacommand {{lit|Tobycrabel.jpg}} (speedy deletion under I7)
• 18:41 11/27 Betacommand {{lit|Toby Publicity 4.jpg}} (speedy deletion under I7)
• 18:41 11/27 Betacommand {{lit|Toby Lightman Publicity 3.jpg}} (speedy deletion under I7

The Deletion log, note, does NOT -- let me repeat that, does NOT -- show whether any Talk pages of deleted pages exist. The list must be massaged first to insert the templates which reveal the orphaned Talk pages. --Calton | Talk 02:27, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

While of course you can't see if the links are valid or not in edit mode, are you placing these on-wiki to see the blue/red state?

Let me refresh your memory, from User_talk:Xaosflux#Bot_tagging above: ...normally I don't save these in Wikipedia, just work out of Preview mode, but I thought you might need to see. Note that existing Talk pages, being in blue, pop right out. --Calton | Talk 02:45, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

...and you are not error-checking the bluelinks. Don't insult me or my intelligence, please.

flooding? I'd say that that word does not man what you think it means.

And a making a series of 5,000-item pages that admins have to be explicitly pointed to each time? This is efficient how, exactly? --Calton | Talk 03:00, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

As for flooding, you are currently consuming about 75% of the recent "recent changes log" for image talk's.

Which tells me that a) if you define your boundaries narrowly enough you can claim any superlative you like; b) Image Talk pages don't get a lot of traffic if what I'm doing "floods" the logs; and c) you don't like reading edit summaries, since every single one (okay, I missed a couple) of them has the same edit summary -- namely "{{db-talk}}" -- making them easy to pass over if you're using the human eyeball as your guide.

Don't like my methods? Write a bot to find these things and compile a list and/or get the deleting admins to remember to check for orphaned talk pages. I'm not making messes, I'm helping clean up after them. --Calton | Talk 00:03, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi,

I just noticed that the category was populated after I tagged it for deletion (since it previously wasn't), and I was rechecking policy to see how to deal with that. In this specific case, I think that the creating user has misunderstood the role of each project, and is trying to replicate parts of the Commons here. Do you have any thoughts on categories in WP created exclusively for Commons material? Tewfik^Talk 01:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

In the case of Category:Maps of the Palestinian territories, I just forgot to recategorise an improperly labelled image, but it is indeed empty and should be deleted. Tewfik^Talk 01:56, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, that changed. My understanding is that the categorisation of other categories isn't in and of itself a reason to maintain an otherwise empty category. As for the image, there is apparently now a content dispute, as someone has reverted my removal of the categorisation (in error, I believe). Perhaps at this point that issue needs to be worked out before the category is deleted. Still, I would appreciate if you could clarify on the Commons issue, since the user's rationale seems to be that since an image category exists on the Commons, it should also exist here, even if that means that it is only populated by other categories. I don't see the utility in creating multiple layers for a minimal number of images that should be on WP. It seems that the new strategy being used is to categorise images from the commons to populate these new categories (as in Category:Maps of the history of the Middle East). Let me know either way. Tewfik^Talk 02:07, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

That is fair. What of replicating Commons categorisation (and images) here? Tewfik^Talk 02:13, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. What do you think of this category. It seems that two of the images exist only on the Commons, and I don't see why the solitary image that is used on WP needs an image category and can't just be included a level higher. Am I off, or should the images be "untagged" and the third retagged? Tewfik^Talk 02:28, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Done. Do you think you could delete the images and category? Tewfik^Talk 03:05, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

I'd like to deal with the technical parts of this first so as to reduce the scope of any content dispute, and so I was hoping that you could deal with Category:Maps of Gaza Strip, since I followed the instructions you gave and transwikied. Tewfik^Talk 05:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Commons media in English wikipedia categories

Commons media are for the use of all wikipedia sites worldwide. The English wikipedia pages for those commons media list the English wikipedia pages on which those commons media are used.

The commons page for a particular image does not list the English wikipedia pages on which that image is being used.

There are images in English wikipedia categories that would not be accepted in the commons. Gif images, fair use images, etc.. So the link to the commons category allows for more public-domain images to be used in English wikipedia pages.

The existence of the English wikipedia category allows for links to be made to the commons category of the same name. So English wikipedia editors then know of the additional commons media available to them. Those images are sometimes better, as explained previously. Oftentimes there is a larger selection of images at the commons.

The existence of the English wikipedia category also allows a logical location for links to the English wikipedia subcategories.

Not all commons images are suitable for placement in English wikipedia categories. Images captioned in other languages for example.

I put some of the English-language commons images in the English wikipedia categories. This saves editors time in finding images. Because they don't have to click many commons images to open them up and see what language is used on the image. --Timeshifter 08:11, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Also I would like to point out that another admin put the map he recently uploaded into this category:

Category:Maps of the Palestinian territories

There were subcategories linked there, too. Subcategories with both commons and wikipedia images. Also, there were links to the Atlas of Palestine, etc.. --Timeshifter 08:11, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the info and link you left on my talk page. I replied on my talk page. --Timeshifter 18:18, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

I would like to thank you for your support in my recent RFA. As you may or may not be aware, it passed with approximately 99% support. I ensure you that I will use the tools well, and if I ever disappoint you, I am open to recall. If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to leave me a note on my talkpage. Thanks again, ^demon^{[omg plz]} 20:47, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Three days after you unprotected my userpage, it was vandalized by some anon. vandal whom I reverted and warned. This leads me to ask this question: Can you re-semiprotect my userpage?  ~Steptrip 01:09, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

That'll probably make 'em mad!  ~Steptrip 01:16, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Just a little confused--I only see two times that your userpage has ever been vandalised, both from the same IP address, and they were within two minutes of each other over two weeks ago. Does semi-prot automatically extend to subpages, and the vandalism occurred on one of those, perhaps? Jouster  (whisper) 14:25, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Not that I'm answering for xaosflux or anything, I just want to get rid of any confusion, but (1) semi-protection does not extend to subpages without the "cascading" option enabled, and that option is never used with semi-prot. (2) If the vandalism appeared on one of my subpages, then it would show up on a diff in that subpage's history, not my userpage's history.  ~Steptrip 02:02, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

This protection is not cascading. This protection may not be strictly according to the protection policy but we are generally more lenient in the User: space. If you would like to contest it as a policy breach I will remove it, and Steptrip can relist on WP:RFPP if they desire. As this is only sprotection it should not prevent you from editing that page, do you know of an issue regarding an anon that wanted to make a good faith edit to the page but was not able to? FWIW, I'm pretty much opposed to indefinite rotection of pretty much anything, but have seen good editors get frustrated and leave due to vandalism. Thanks, — xaosflux ^Talk 02:08, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

I am, in general, against any protection not strictly justified by the circumstances and policy. As the original request for protection appears to be backed up by a factual error (that more than one incident of vandalism occurred, separated by "three days"), I don't feel (semi-)protection is valid here. Replying here is fine, I've added you to my watchlist. Jouster  (whisper) 20:22, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

As I said earlier if contested I'd expire that protection, and I have. Steptrip, if you feel you need your page protected again, please see WP:RFPP. If you are having issues with vandals on your page you can list them on WP:AIV where blocking may be more approriate. Thank you, — xaosflux ^Talk 22:12, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, hopefully I won't have to make one of those requests at WP:RFPP (it would mean that my page had been vandalized ;P )  ~Steptrip 00:09, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

While I, and I'm sure several other editors, do appreciate you protecting Fruits Basket, I think a full-protect might be a bit severe. It was only one new user, who's account isn't even a day old yet, and a few IPs causing any recent trouble on the page. A semi-protect might be a bit more appropriate. Thank you for your time, and happy editing! // DecaimientoPoético 01:04, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Oh, if it's only for three days then I have no problem with it. The edits were simple vandalism (combining elements from Fruits Basket and another series, Rurouni Kenshin), but you can just leave it fully protected. Well, thanks again! // DecaimientoPoético 01:21, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

It's still April Fool's for another 5:27 here, but fine, whatever. --tjstrf talk 01:34, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for closing the Autosodomy AfD. I noticed that you used a strange term "JUPE'd", and linked to something called WP:JUPE which redirects to Wikipedia:Protected titles. What does that mean? Is it some kind of abbreviation? --Tony Sidaway 05:21, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Are you running a script or bot with this account? I've noticed a high rate of user_talk:'s regarding images. The content of these is not in question, simply the edit rate. I could have just caught you at a fast peak, but if you are running this automarically then you should be running this from a bot account to avoid flooding recent changes. Thanks, — xaosflux ^Talk 14:49, 8 April 2007 (UTC) <please reply on my talk>

No bot work here. I usually open various images in various tabs, and process them in a row. Also, I use Howcheng's scripts, but no tagging is done without my analysis. --Abu badali ^(talk) 15:24, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi, you reverted my edit to Template:Tprotected with the comment "rv; form over function, this keeps it simple". I don't see how your comment applies, or how the template is necessary at all. Its design and naming is inconsistent with the current set of protection templates, and its purpose is already covered by those templates – indeed, better covered, as different templates are available for the reason for protection.

As I said in the summary of my edit, simply announcing that the page is "temporarily protected" without saying for how long is completely useless – if a reader or newcomer who doesn't know where to find the protection log comes across it, it tells them nothing, and if an experienced user comes across it, they have to check the log anyway to find when the expiry time is, so it tells them no more than a simple "this page is protected" message does. If one is going to specify that the protection expires, one must say when, and the expiry parameter of all the templates starting with pp- can do that. I redirected it to {{pp-protected}} because the original template failed to specify a reason for protection; use of one of the more specific ones such as {{pp-vandalism}}, together with an expiry parameter if necessary, is preferable.

In an ideal world, of course, all this notification would be handled by the interface. There would be a padlock icon in the corner of a protected page, and when clicking the "view source" button the message at the top of the screen would correctly distinguish full and semi-protection and include the comment from the protection log, similar to how the block message includes the block reason. Unfortunately, we have to live with a development team that doesn't, and having one standardized system of protection templates, together with a well-maintained system of categories, is the only way we can hope to keep track of page protection. (Do you really want to go back to the days where we had enormous 500Kb project pages that were unreadable and out of date anyway? Thought not) – Gurch 10:19, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I seem to remember that Bot policy requires Bots to have an owner active on Wikipedia- how long does an owner have to be away for this to become an issue? Hagerman has now not edited since Feb 6. HagermanBot generates a lot of questions from people who don't understand how it functions. Also, a number of requests for possible improvements to the Bot's operation have gone unanswered over the last couple of months. It's a useful Bot and is functioning as expected but it is a concern that there is no one to address issues with it. Just wanted your thoughts on the matter.

Category:Wikipedian programmers is to be depopulated due to WP:UCFD.

Besides that, I've been (slowly) working on clarifying the user categories. It seems that overzealous contributers had added the parent cats to the babel userboxes. So for example, a single userbox would include a user in Category:User en and Category:User en-1, or including a user in Category:Wikipedians in the United States and in an individual state category. And further those userboxes have been subst: to user pages, and a myriad of userfied versions, and so on. I've been trying to reduce edit count by removing the parent cats in a single edit, if possible. At this point though, the task seems so large, that I'm starting to think I need to find a bot owner to help with this. The trouble is that it would require identifying that the userbox page had both the parent cat and the sub cat. Any suggestions would be welcome : ) - jc37 11:45, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

You removed my speedy delete tag from this article, and I can only assume you did not read it. This is not an encyclopedia article, it is a ridiculous story about an "art movement" that does not exist, and has never existed. The name of this so-called movement comes from a Papal Encyclical that is made up, and it refers to articles appearing in the May 2012 issue of a Mexican art magazine that is also made up. Nothing in the article is true, and taken together it is most certainly nonsense. If you wouldn't mind, please take another look. ---Charles 14:17, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, is there a reason for this page to still be protected? The page reads:

The following pages have been juped, preventing their creation. This list should be kept short.

so I assume this is left over from some early experiment with protected titles or something. However, it then only transcludes your sandbox, which is just full of junk and Strong Bad pictures and hence has no need to be protected – especially not from creation, since it already exists.

Unless there's a good reason why the protection is still necessary, I'd appreciate it if you could unprotect the page. Thanks – Gurch 20:22, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Yep, it was an old test, I removed protection. — xaosflux ^Talk 20:25, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Xaosflux, I must admit I'm rather disappointed at the way you closed this MfD. Just wanted to check with you whether we should first discuss this among ourselves or whether I ought to take it to DRV. "No consensus"? We had two clearly reasoned deletes, one keep from the creator, another keep without any reasoning at all (hence discardable) from the co-author, and an interesting "neutral" basically saying that the page was terrible but useful for exposing the POV-pushing by its authors. My challenge still stands: Exactly what in this page does anybody think has a potential to become a decent article? And if it's just bits and pieces that are useable, why can't the author just store those offline, why do we have to tolerate this POV screed surrounding them? I still believe this page blatantly violates WP:USER. This keep decision is setting a very bad precedent about tolerating single-purpose POV warriors and propagandists on Wikipedia. I mean, surely you must agree that the page is terrible? Yeah, I know, it's user space, but we should get it clarified that POV pushers can't have it both ways: Either you have a true userspace page, in which case it may include some POV but is bound to WP:USER (no extensive commentary on non-Wikipedia matters), or you have an article-related sandbox/draft, in which case you are bound to observe the same NPOV and NOR principles as in article space. --Fut.Perf. ☼ 06:29, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for reopening it, much appreciated. Seems like a sensible decision to me. Fut.Perf. ☼ 12:18, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

I wanted to ask why you relisted the MFD for my sandbox, but now I see the reason. According evidence shown above, Future Perfect at Sunrise already ate his hat, I think he is taking my sandbox too personally. Am I a single-purpose POV warrior and propagandist? Will be tolerated persons like me in Wikipedia? This is a problem to be solved by arbitration comitee, where a case with my involvement is opened. FPS spoke in this case, we should wait the decision of the arbitration comitee, not forcing a "consensus" against me which will be presented afterwards in the arbitration case. For the record: I do not agree that the page is terrible, I've used parts of it (yes, I can store some parts offline, but I prefer to keep data in a Wikipedia format)--MariusM 16:09, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello Xaosflux, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Strong Bad.png) was found at the following location: User:Xaosflux/Sandbox2. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 20:59, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello Xaosflux. The Firearms Wikiproject is having an infobox drive. The purpose of this is to ensure that most (if not all) of the articles within our scope have the relevant infoboxes. The start date will be May 28^th. If you choose to participate, go to our project page and pick an article under the To-do list's Infobox section or look for firearm articles that need an infobox. Before you start editing an article, please cross it out on the list so that we don't have editor's work clashing. The drive will last for five days. If you are interested, please RSVP to LWF. Thank you, the Firearms Wikiproject. --Seed 2.0 09:26, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
