Jeremy Browne

Eugene regarding my editing of the page about Jeremy Browne. If you look you will see that all i have ever done is add fully referenced material, and completed quotes only half posted to put Jeremy in a bad light. My posts are longer, include all of the quotes desired by oldtauntonian, an adversary of Browne's, but in full. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.192.34.40 (talk) 21:55, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

User Xzz8sh

So, Mr. Krabs, are you going to respond to my post about the user page for User:Xzz8sh or not? Seems to be pretty obvious violation of WP:UP#NOT, advertising or promotion of a business or organization unrelated to Wikipedia (such as purely commercial sites or referral links). 98.248.32.178 (talk) 01:32, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

User Pokerdance

The message below from Kww is a response to a message I left at User talk:Kww: Okay.

Well, it is "sort of an attack", but not much of one. I probably wouldn't have left a level-4 warning over it, but it wasn't wrong to do so, either. His problems with adding original research, edit-warring, and playing games with warnings are going to get him blocked quite quickly if he doesn't straighten out. As for leaving admins warnings ... not usually a good idea, but I've done it before and probably will again. Admins are just editors. Also, I'm not an admin ... just an editor with a lot of edits. —Kww(talk) 20:20, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Okay, thank you for the kind reply. - Amaury (talk) 20:21, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, Zhang He

Hello there, Zhang He :) Apparition¹¹ ^Complaints/Mistakes 15:07, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for reverting vandalism on User:WilliamH

Thanks for reverting vandalism on my user page. WilliamH (talk) 15:49, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

You're welcome. - Amaury (talk) 16:14, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Your contributions

I noticed that your contributions on February 9 and earlier have returned, so you're getting them back slowly but surely :) Apparition¹¹ ^Complaints/Mistakes 23:39, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

More have come back up to June 3rd. By the way, shouldn't it say Zhang He and not Eugene Krabs? On some of the before edits the name changed to my new, but on some it didn't. - Amaury (talk) 00:03, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Weird, the ones I just mentioned disappeared. - Amaury (talk) 00:07, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

lol, hopefully it'll get straightened out completely before long. AFAIK, it should change your name in the contributions and history, but not edit summaries, signatures, and whatnot. Was it in the edit summaries that you noticed it? Apparition¹¹ ^Complaints/Mistakes 00:08, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

No, the actual contributor name. - Amaury (talk) 00:30, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Gotcha, I'm not sure. Hopefully, it'll get fixed when all the contribs gets straightened out. Apparition¹¹ ^Complaints/Mistakes 00:33, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Barbaro family

There have been long-term problems with hoaxing about the Barbaro family. Thanks for reverting one of them. If you are interested, more info about the hoax and hoaxer is at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mctrain, Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mctrain/Archive, Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Mctrain, Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Societyfinalclubs, Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Archive95#Hoaxer, Wikipedia:Fringe_theories/Noticeboard/Archive_1#Barbaro_family, and Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive370#User:Mctrain.

Russia and weapons of mass destruction

Hey Zhang, thanks for your welcome message, but it wasn't needed. If you'd checked my edit history you'd notice I've been editing for several months and am quite familiar with the editing procedures here on Wikipedia. But your reversion of the page leaves me baffled. Can you kindly explain why you believe my edit was a "test", as I attempted to provided a source for the "dubious" statement? If this was a mistake on your part, can you try to actually check edits next time before you revert them? Thanks! --Eightofnine (talk) 03:41, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Another Cinderella Story

This edit didn't even approach vandalism: the editor simply wanted to make sure the infobox had displayed completely before the references began. Your warning was unnecessary as well. I can tell that you are using Huggle to scan new edits, but I think you are going a bit fast: this edit was vandalism because the editor was trying to cover up a copyright violation by uploading the image through Flickr, and you gave him a spam warning. It's pretty obvious that you didn't take the time to examine the edit and its context so that you could act appropriately. —Kww(talk) 03:43, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Understood. - Amaury (talk) 04:51, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Sea urchin

Hi Zhang He, Please have a look at Old revision and Current revision as User:Rdht has been making legit good faith edits and removing duplicate content, I'd like to request a retraction of the recent warning you gave to him/her if possible? Thanks. - Jeffrey Mall | Talk2Me | BNosey - 17:33, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for reverting vandalism on User:Jongleur100

The Satanic Satanist

Hey, you got a new name. That's so exciting! Thanks for backing me up here--it was a judgment call, and that IP is placing those reviews all over the place. I'm going to ask some other editors who know their music (business) for advice also. Later, Drmies (talk) 05:17, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

You're welcome. - Amaury (talk) 12:45, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Charles Taylor (philosopher)

I did delete the two sentences from the Charles Taylor intro and left a reason here: Talk:Charles Taylor (philosopher)#Edited Intro. You must surely agree that they are NPOV? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.110.34.72 (talk) 16:40, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Jat Sikh

Hi, I'm glad I cought your eye. If two users continually collude with each other for either political, commercial or ideological purposes, is that allowed ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.192.59.171 (talk) 17:13, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

I've no idea what you're talking about. - Amaury (talk) 17:15, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
