Rush Limbaugh

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. As a member of the Wikipedia community, I would like to remind you of Wikipedia's neutral-point-of-view policy for editors. In the meantime, please be bold and continue contributing to Wikipedia. Thank you! --Aaron 04:35, 29 January 2006 (UTC) Upon second reading, you are right. I think it's NPOV. What can I say, it's late and I'm sleepy. My apologies. --Aaron 05:03, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Chili con carne

About the "hot dog chili/sauce" comment, Im not exactly sure thats what it is, but I once bought Hormel hot dog sauce and, while it was slightly similar to "Chili con carne", it had a strange, unique taste. And from what I can tell, it matches "Cincinnati Chili", which is also what they give you at the James Coney Island hot dog chain. You can leave it out or add it back if you like, I`ll leave it up to you. Jack Cain 23:29, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Re: Rush Limbaugh

I've replied to your query on my talk page. --Kbh3^rdtalk 18:05, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Origin of "hog" nickname

To substantiate the "hog" story, which you seemed to think was fiction, I included links to verify the facts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harley-Davidson

I didn't think it was fiction. The previous entry consisted nothing more than "I saw it on Jepardy". which is not a good source. That's all.

I agree, it didn't have as much background as it could have, but Jeopardy is the most scrutinized fact-oriented forum in the world--if Jeopardy features a piece of trivia, it's a very safe bet that it's true. And with millions of Jeopardy viewers, if it hadn't been on the show, a Wikipedia person would have probably said something. Anyway, I guess much more direct proof was accomplished by just referencing the Harley website!

There's no doubt that if it was on Jepardy, that there was truth to it. HOWEVER, a person saying they saw it on Jepardy w/ no substanciating proof, reference or any links really doesn't count as being a fact. But yes, if the person had linked to it on an official site, I certainly would not have had any issues with it.

VandalProof application

Unfortunately at this stage I've had to decline you VandalProof application because you are under the 250 edit minumum (you have 146 approx). Please try again once you've hit the minimum. Thank you for your interest! - Glen ^T _C 03:19, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Ministry (band)

Hi, thanks for pointing out that I need to provide substantiation. I indeed forgot to fill in the changes line (in all my contributions today). I own the Fairlight series III unit, I also own the company. I bought my unit on ebay in the summer of 2005. Someone else bought the IIx. If needed (appreciated ?) I can post a photo of the Series III keyboard. It literally bears Al Jourgensen's signature all over it.

Your VandalProof Application

Dear Rsm99833,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.1 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that you do not meet our 250 mainspace edit requirement. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Glen ^T_C (Stollery) 15:44, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Talk:The Da Vinci Code

Good call. I removed the spam. —Viriditas | Talk 04:57, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Speaking of which, Rsm99833, could you sign with ~~~~ instead of five? Because that's what happened on User_talk:Undertaker911, and I wasn't sure if that's a consistent problem or not; just wanted to let you know. If this message sounds like nonsense to you, sorry! --M1ss1ontomars2k4 ^{(T | C | @)} 01:33, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

OK. That's okay; I've been known to say weird things on Wikipedia when it gets late, so I don't see what's wrong with an accidental five tildes. ;) --M1ss1ontomars2k4 ^{(T | C | @)} 05:19, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

My apologies

I realize that when I said "Maybe you should read up on them," yes, that could have been taken in an offending way, and I apologize. The problem is that I just don't give a damn anymore about being nice. I am just so sick and tired of people pussyfooting around with vandals and people who make personal attacks (particularly slap-on-the-wrist 24-48 hour blocks. All blocks should be 7 days minimum). So yes, I'm liable to get out of hand myself. Shit happens. Blessed be, Search4Lancer 15:36, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Vandalproof

[1] [2] [3]. Please be more careful. — FireFox ^user_talk 17:53, 30 May '06

Look. I gave you three links. Look at them. You reverted and warned the wrong person. — FireFox ^user_talk 17:58, 30 May '06

Ok, no problem. — FireFox ^user_talk 17:59, 30 May '06

Careful...

This edit was not vandalism. Careful next time. Thanks. --You Know Who ^{(Dark Mark)} 23:11, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Oh, it's no problem... just have to make sure sometimes. Thanks! --You Know Who ^{(Dark Mark)} 23:15, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

See the article on the fifth estate. Trickiness. ;-) --You Know Who ^{(Dark Mark)} 23:19, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Can you bring this to the attention of someone? I don't know who to go to. 3 days and 8 articles vandalized, not a good start... →ΣcoPhreek_▼ 20:17, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

East Bay (San Francisco Bay Area)

Please be more careful when leaving vandalism warnings. I was reverting nonsense, not adding it. Thanks.

Response

No problem. Cheers! DGX 23:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry, that guy is in a long list of vandals who are my vandal for life. ;-) If his message was a proverbial challenge to revert his vandalism, then I gladly except. ;-) DGX 01:13, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Coulter Page

If you even bothered to look at the talk page, you would clearly see that I said why I took out the POV tag on the page. Please, in the future, do some research before jumping to conclusions.

Plus Kasyren agrees with me. Puckmv 00:46, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Heh. Does that mean my opinion counts for something now?  ;)

Rsm, for what it's worth, I agree with Puckmv's removal of the POV tag. The editor who added it failed in his responsibility to give reasons why. Kasreyn 00:56, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

70.115.211.122 report on WP:RFI

Hi Rsm99833. Please note that I've archived or removed your recent request for investigation. That page is only for very specific cases, as described by the page's guidelines. Your alert would be better placed on Administrator intervention against vandalism (WP:AIV), where it will usually be processed within minutes. Many alerts that are incorrectly placed on Requests for investigation are never dealt with, simply because they become old before an administrator gets to them. Thanks for your efforts. :) Petros471 18:35, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Re: David Lynch

If you saw the DVD for Eraserhead you would know that David Lynch ate french fries and grilled cheese almost every day while on the set. The addition I made to the Trivia section was not vandalism or even "experimentation", it was a fact!

I'm sure you'll probably just say it's useless information but I think Lynch's fans would be interested to know this.

Michael Moore Edit

Why did you remove my link? It was put in its proper place amongst the other films critical of Michael Moore. Do you not believe it exists? Or would you/Wikipedia just prefer that someone else who has seen the film add the link? That wouldn't be a problem.

6 Degrees from Truth: Michael Moore will be released non-commercially on the Internet in addition to a commercial DVD release. Regardless, it is a major source of information about the documentary filmmaker. It is a real documentary. If you'd like a screener copy, feel free to leave me your mailing address (work, home, P.O. Box or what have you.)

Thank you,

Adam Reuter Producer, 6 Degrees from Truth: Michael Moore

That's fair, Mr. Rsm99833. Understanding the way things work on the Internet (a lot of swindlers), I see your POV now. When the film is released, I will contact you again about this dispute to clear things up.

Re:Idlewild (film)

If you look at the credits for Idlewild on IMDB or the official trailer on QuickTime, you'll notice that Paula Patton plays Angel, not Paula Jai Parker. Paula Jai Parker is credited in the movie, but her role is not disclosed. Yinfeng.shao 02:06 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Please tell me why you just reverted my edits to the Southern Poverty Law Center. WillC 19:16, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Please tell me how my wording was POV....i thought I made it more NPOV than it was....just because the SPLC names a group a hate group does not make it undeniable truth...it is just their point of view and that was all I was saying. WillC 19:20, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Reporting vandals

The quickest way to get a response is to post the information on the Administrator intervention against vandalism page. I'm fine with you posting them on my talk page, but you'll likely get a quicker response by posting as listed above. Thanks! ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 00:10, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey, I've been getting these warnings

Like, I got a block warning for changing the proper title of the movie the ring twO from The Ring Two to the ring twO (proper title)

What was wrong with my edit?

It is perfectly correct. HUGO is specifically HUGO HUGO BOSS and BOSS is BOSS HUGO BOSS.--85.189.4.34 18:00, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Shouldn't the HUGO BOSS article be changed for the fact that the company represents itself as HUGO BOSS ie the 'e' with eBay being another example. --85.189.4.34 17:18, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

MySpace artist sites

I see where you reverted an addition of a MySpace link to the Chip Taylor article (adding the link was NOT my edit). In general, I would agree that MySpace links are unnecessary, do not add anything to a biography, and are usually a self-link. In the case of a musician, however, it strikes me that a MySpace link does add information, such as music clips, concert schedules and the like. In many cases, the MySpace site is better organized and more accessible than the musician's regular website. This isn't a major deal to me, but I was curious as to your logic in removing this link. SteveHopson 20:02, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Sorry

Sorry, I forgot to put an edit summary. And as for proof that this spoof exists: [4]. Bibliomaniac15 20:39, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

By the way, I've been seeing a vandal vandalising pages related to Disney Channel actresses: User: 69.152.67.131. This person has received a last warning. Bibliomaniac15 20:39, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

SubGenii

I noticed you've just deleted somebody's categorization of some people as members of the Church of the Subgenius. Is that being discussed somewhere? Do you know they are not members? Is it a privacy issue? Rlitwin 00:58, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Motorcycle gang

Please see my remarks at Talk:Motorcycle gang#Removal of material and citations. I'd much rather have a discussion than an edit war. - Jmabel | Talk 21:10, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

I've responded. Please, give me the substance of your case: so far all you are telling me is "You're wrong. Your source is wrong. I'm reverting." - Jmabel | Talk 01:35, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Confusion

On the redneck page you were reverting the page back to my orginal edit. Someone came back and added the information that doesnt fit wiki standards. I reverted back to my original edit (the one without the unsourced material and npov viewpoint)and you reverted my edit to the unsourced flyby night editors version (axlrose or something like that). Please get your people straight in the future. I am going to revert the page again. Check the history before you revert and check the talk page. We both have the same version in mind.Jasper23 18:26, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Paul Reubens

Apparently, you've never seen Ceech & Chong's Next Movie. Paul Reubens appeared briefly as a hotel clerk, and about 10-15 minutes later reappeared at a comedy club in an early appearance as Pee-Wee Herman. I think that is worth mentioning.Jgera5 00:40, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Mistake

You reverted something that was correct. That was actually one of the "messed up idioms" that Omi used. I had no intention to vandalize. [5] --151.196.186.191 16:43, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Don't be too quick to warn "vandals"

User:Deuterenemos made good faith edits to Flying Spaghetti Monster. There was no reason to call his edits vandalism. JoshuaZ 00:12, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[6] shows a warning and in any event, if an edit is not believed to be vandalism, using rollback is not a good idea since it doesn't give them any idea why their edit was reverted. JoshuaZ 00:37, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Commercial links

Okay; no problem. All I did was repeat what I found on the Jay North page. I don't know who posted that.

Thanks!

Anthony 18:37, 19 August 2006 (UTC) (Talk to Me)

Are you a robot? When you revert people and label it as "editing experiment" don't you stop to think the person might actually be somewhat of an expert in the subject? Augurr 20:03, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Your VP abuse

Rsm99833, your approach is rude and off-putting. I don't appreciate being "warned" or being accused of "vandalism." And you seem to be having a similar effect on others. If you want to edit something, please do it without being obnoxious. Louche 22:51, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

When you choose to use the template, you choose to use the words. When those words are not justified, they amout to a personal attack. And your dismissal of them as "simple misunderstandings" is disturbing. Such misunderstandings can be avoided in the future by assuming good faith and, more to the point, by not lightly throwing serious accusations around. Again, edit whatever you like. But if you find yourself falsely accusing others of vandalism, you're doing something wrong. Louche 23:19, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I am not interested in Wiki games or Wiki nonsense. Your reasoning is invalid and inconsistent in this instance, and rude in the extreme. It's your entry, have fun with your toys. I'm not interested in the game, babe. Arcsincostan 04:36, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Consider the above to have been repeated. Whatever floats your trollish boat, babe. Arcsincostan 04:48, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Let it go. I'm not interested. Arcsincostan 05:04, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
