Hi! Please leave a message and I'll get back to you... Don't hesitate to get in touch if you have a question or need help. I'll do my best and can probably point you in the right direction if it isn't something I can sort out myself. Will

Hope I didn't step on your toes with my block..! I was just about to post the same shared-ip tag. I'm still learning the ropes..! Dreadstar † 17:27, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

No problem at all. WjBscribe 17:33, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Dear WJBscribe,

Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed successfully with 83 supports, 1 oppose, and 0 neutrals. No matter if you voted (I mean, "!voted") support or oppose, I thank you for taking the time to drop by. I'm new, remember, so if you have any suggestions feel free to inform me of them, and if I do anything wrong, feel free to add to the permanent chorus of disapproval on my talk page. Special thanks to Walton^One and Dihydrogen Monoxide for nominating me.

This design was brazenly stolen from inspired by Тhε Rαnδom Eδιτor's RFA Thanks, which in turn was inspired by Phaedriel's RFA thanks.

RFA Thanks!

Thanks for your participation for my RFA bid and for your support.--JForget 23:10, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the message about my Rfa, I will certainly work on those things as mentioned. I should have been reverting more in the food and drink related pages. I probably have the most pages attached to my watch list out of anyone in the project as I have rated a large majority of the articles associated with our project. As I had stated in the nomination process, even just applying gave me quite a bit of Wikipedia knowledge in things to watch. Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you on here. --Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 02:17, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/NORDKAPP (2nd)

You blocked a number of accounts associated with NORDKAPP after the checkuser came back "likely", but two of the accounts listed at the suspected sock puppet page are not block. See my comment in the "Conclusion" section there, and consider blocking those two accounts. Thank you, and best regards, Shalom ^Hello 02:34, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Done - no idea why I missed those 2. Thanks for pointing it out. WjBscribe 02:39, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Blatant sockpuppet of indef blocked editor

This doesn't seem like much of an apology to me. It's also a clear evasion of a block. --ElKevbo 20:15, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

This seems like an apology and they stopped after that post. Which blocked user do you think they're a sockpuppet of? WjBscribe 20:20, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

MaxwellTeke, as indicated by the contributions, particularly the contribution noted above. --ElKevbo 20:38, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

mmm - the WHOIS on the IP traces it to BellSouth.net which I believe is a fairly major internet provider. I'd rather not block the IP without ongoing vandalism. They seem to have stopped - if they resume they can be blocked straight away. WjBscribe 20:43, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Stanley Dunin AfD

Hi there, some serious concerns about the sources in this article have been raised and whether the claims made in the article are really backed by the citations. Could I ask you to have a careful look at these citations and see what you think? Thanks Tim Vickers 00:30, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Seconded - I agree that if the claims in the article text were true, Stanley Dunin could be considered notable. However, it appears they are comprised of exaggerations and outright fabrications. Neil ム 08:27, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi there, I found this NASA history of geosynchronous orbits. It doesn't mention Stanley Dunin at all. All the best Tim Vickers 17:32, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I think my comment on the AfD is still valid: "Aerospace engineer published in his field. Head of the astrodynamics section of a NASA project and part of a team that launched the world's first geosynchronous communications satellite." I don't think he needs to have been the first to work out the geosynchronous orbit to be notable. The article suggests his role was in the engineering over the project, not the theory behind it... The article contains OR and some elements may be overstated but I am satisfied the underlying person is more worthy of inclusion than the ridiculous number of minor modern celebrities kept at AfD every day.

John Stallings (model)

Is there a way you can get a copy of the John Stallings (model) page that was deleted and put it in my userspace? I'm not sure how that works, but it is an admin thing, isn't it? -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 21:28, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

User:The Behnam/Local news

Over a week ago, you left a message on The Behnam's talkpage, asking him to remove this page. He acknowledged reading it, but has done nothing to remove the page so far. Perhaps you need to discuss this with him further. Or should I just go ahead and delete it, and let you know if he re-creates it? Jeffpw 06:45, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

After messaging with Future Perfect (another admin) I have listed the page at MFD. Jeffpw 11:19, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

I need revision for the post "To Speak"

the post was previously as the reason given was "no advertising" however, the post has be edited, furthermore to speak has been speeched at Montreal film festival.

and it was deleted again, the reason given was "Please do not recreate this article without prior approval from an administrator or you may be blocked from editing".

pls help to revised the decision. Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jesslynism (talk • contribs) 08:07, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi, the repost looks to me to be pretty much the same as the deleted version. I wasn't involved in the decision to delete it the first time though - it seems that as well as an advertising concern, the text was felt to be too close a copy to material that appeared elsewhere on the net, raising copyright concerns. As User:Redvers (the original deleting admin) is now back and editing again he's probably the one best placed to let you know what changes the article needs if it is to be validly recreated.

user:198.108.222.3

FYI: You recently blocked 198.108.222.3 (talk · contribs · email) for 3 days for vandalism. This user has now resumed his/her disruptive editing. Perhaps a longer (indefinite?) block is in order? Yilloslime (t) 16:46, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

1 week is the standard escalation for a shared IP - ah, and its school IP - what a surprise! Well I think if they don't get the message this time, at month is in order next time... WjBscribe 16:50, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick reply and prompt action! Yilloslime (t) 16:54, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!

		My RFA
		Thanks for your support in my request for adminship, which ended with 58 supports, 1 opposes, and 1 neutral. I hope your confidence in me proves to be justified. Addhoc 19:18, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

user: 70.91.195.205

Dude when you put up the shared user template you neglected to notice my warning about this user. The IP is registered to Qualters Middle School in Mansfield Ma. If you could please change that I would be most grateful. Thank you Foxtrotman 21:06, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

How's that? WjBscribe 21:13, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

User:195.229.236.250

WjBscribe, I appreciate your fight against vandalism, but this IP address is shared by the entire internet service in the UAE. Therefore, blocking this IP address blocks an entire country instead of blocking one user. I don't know how we can fight vandalism through this IP, but surely there is an alternative to blocking an entire country. Thank you for considering this message. Merond e 12:54, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I'll have a look into it. The IP has been bloced for nearly a month however, and little complaint has been received - suggesting it is not as widely shared as you believe. As a compromise it may be possible to block the IP but not prevent account creation. I note that the block is due to expire in a couple of days in any event. WjBscribe 14:52, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

AIV stats

I got that information you wanted about that candidates AIV stats. I put them on my sandbox. The link is to the edit where the report was added, but the label is the information regarding its removal(a bit non-intuitive, but I just hacked up this report format).

I checked them over and it did not seem to make any mistakes in this case. Thanks for encouraging a double check on my part. ((1 == 2) ? (('Stop') : ('Go')) 13:51, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Fabrictramp RFA

Thank you for your support in my Request for Adminship, which passed with 50 supports, 1 neutral, and 1 oppose. My goal is to keep earning your trust every time I grab the "mop". (And I'm always open to constructive criticism and advice!) Again, thanks. --Fabrictramp 16:57, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Request for checkuser

Seeing as your one of the main people that deals with checusers, I thought I'd let you know that a backlog is starting to form at the page. I'm letting you know so that the backlog can be taken control of before it gets any worse. Thanks, Davnel03 18:45, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
