Welcome[edit]

A warm welcome to the English Wikipedia, dear Hexer! If you have questions, please don't ask on my talk page, because I'm not active here. Just ask one of these people. Most of them are happy to help (but only if nobody stole their passwords, of course). :o) We (I don't mean myself very much but rather the community of the English Wikipedia) look forward to your contributions! Have fun! --Thogo (Talk) 22:07, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

i don't know where else to post a message, but i want the page written about me deleted. you keep putting it back up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mpodd6 (talk • contribs) 20:34, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sceptre would like to nominate you for adminship![edit]

Sceptre would like to nominate you to become an administrator. Please visit Wikipedia:Requests for adminship to see what this process entails, and then contact Sceptre to accept or decline the nomination. A page has been created for your nomination at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/DerHexer. If you accept the nomination, you must formally state and sign your acceptance and answer the questions on that page. Once you have answered the questions, you may post your nomination for discussion, or request that your nominator do so.

No hurry, of course :) Will ^(talk) 22:18, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, okay. It's possible to start the RfA on July 14, before 2 o'clock pm UTC? It would be wunderful 'cause then I'll have vacations. :) Maybe you add some links, e. g. [1] [2], [3] or [4]. I could do this, too, replying to the three "questions for the candidate". Greetings and thanks for your confidence, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:51, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ey! Marcus Cyron 14:34, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sry, werde hier regelrecht belagert von vorschlagenden Benutzern. :| Wenn hier alle, die wöllten, und die, die ich dazu noch gern hätte, die Laudatio schrieben, hätten wir so sechs bis acht Personen. Aber freute mich natürlich über deine Stimme. :) Grüße, —DerHexer (Talk) 14:42, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've co-nominated you. Клоун 15:00, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Id would have been better to ask me first so that I can't hardly deny it now. ;) … I hope that not any more co-nominators will appear here. Thanks for your confidence! :) Greetings, —DerHexer (Talk) 15:25, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe it's better if someone else will nominate you here - because here I'm not a "Star" *g*. Nearly nobody knows me and if I nominate you with my horrible english, they maybe laugh but dont give you the voice. So we will wait a longer time until I can nominate someone for adminship here afte at de:WP ;) (for the others: DerHexer is already Administrator e at the german-language-Wikipedia and I had nominate him there for the election). The interesting thing is - Hexer is

Student
Wikipedia-Author ("Portal:Latein"/"Portal:Latin")
Admin who works a lot at the RC at the de:WP
and here at the RC.

He's a true Wikinator ;). Marcus Cyron 22:00, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DerHexer[edit]

I was just wondering whether explicit pictures are acceptable on Wikipedia. I have just come accross this articl Frenular_delta, and as you can see it contains a rather graphic image. Should this be removed or not? Thanks. --79.72.113.19 13:29, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

These images are not allowed: Category:Bad images and MediaWiki:Bad image list. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 15:14, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've sent you an email, FYI. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 18:02, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. We'll do it that way. But I hope that you'll correct my English a bit. ;) —DerHexer (Talk) 18:05, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of redirects[edit]

Talk:List of 20th century small arms: Please avoid deletion of redirects: they are not as "useless" as you might think. Please refresh your knowledge of deletion policy in this respect. `'Míkka 23:54, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you think this orphaned redirect is usefull? I can't imagine a reason to keep it. --Oxymoron⁸³ 07:59, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm well Mikkalai might have been referring to this but I agree it's not really useful, it's not an old redirect, and it doesn't have a significant history, seemed like a harmless deletion to me. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 08:19, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned talk page redirects whose article page is a redirect, too, are totally unnecessary. They are basically hangovers caused by an article move where the moving person forgot to add a speedy deletion on the talk page. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 08:29, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandal Revert[edit]

Hey man, I just realized I never thanked you for reverting the vandalism on my user page the other day! Sorry about that! :) GlassCobra 01:40, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was going to nominate Oxymoron83, but I wanted to nominate him while he was active, and every time I was on Wikipedia these days, I haven't seen Oxymoron active. NHRHS2010 talk 03:39, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Btw., why do you call me Der? —DerHexer (Talk) 21:47, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So sorry for the late reply to this - I missed your asking of this question until just now. No particular reason, Der was just quicker then DerHexer. If it offends you, I of course won't do so again. Although in hindsight and after looking it up - calling you "Der" without the "Hexer" does seem ridiculous. Happy editing. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 18:09, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Imo "Der" is funny and doesn't offend me, I was just a bit confused because it means "The" (and "Hexer" warlock). ;) Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 19:23, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism[edit]

I logged onto Wikipedia to search for something and found a vandalism warning, on I page I've never even visited before. I assume this wasn't an automatic thing because it had your name attached to the warning. I do have an account with Wikipedia, but obviously I'm not logged into it. Has this happened before, as 'last warning' is a bit strange this is the first one, and for seemingly no reason too. 86.147.102.31 20:43, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please have a look at the bottom of your page: This is the discussion page for an anonymous user, identified by the user's numerical IP address. Some IP addresses change periodically, and may be shared by several users. If you are an anonymous user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other anonymous users. Registering also hides your IP address. Someone who used your IP has done this. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 20:47, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations![edit]

Congratulations! You are now on my list of my favorite administrators, since you have reverted vandalism on my userpage more than once! NHRHS2010 talk 23:23, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You said you're blocked. —DerHexer (Talk) 00:00, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was not blocked directly. I was autoblocked because I logged into User:My password is pass to check if the password was really 'pass' and changed the password. Now I can edit, finally. NHRHS2010 talk 00:02, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but normally an autoblock has to be unblocked, too. —DerHexer (Talk) 00:03, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Block on 204.203.50.129[edit]

You posted this block message but the anon’s block log shows no such block. What gives! --teb728 02:27, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what happened. Maybe a bug. Thanks for your report, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:52, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What I meant to say was that if you intended to block them, they're not blocked--still vandalizing. --teb728 17:55, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh! That was yesterday during my sleep. Please report vandals to WP:AIV because I'm not 24/7 online. ;) Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:21, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Of course not. They are published under the terms of the GNU FDL so that everybody is allowed to use these these scripts. Just add importScript('User:DerHexer/monobook.js');. Thanks for your barnstar! :) Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:42, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks its great! --Chris 08:30, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are templates for warnings. You have used "rollback" and not "normal rollback"? Maybe your connection is too fast (or too slow) so that a time out bug happened. Please test it again. Thanks, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:57, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I used my admin rollback - granted I used it on one of my test page and it was a rollback on myself, perhaps that is why I haven't found them? KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 11:02, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Normally you could even warn yourself. Could you please try it with real vandalism? Otherwise I could add popups to warn vandals. —DerHexer (Talk) 11:03, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Btw., it was correct to block the IP: A final warning was added during the last 24 hours so that the script will automatically block. —DerHexer (Talk) 11:08, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

hmm I certainly got a different result. It reverted with lightning speed, opened the IP's talk page, but then instantly went to the block page for the ip and blocked it without my doing anything (turned out it was a good block - but as I didn't do it myself it startled me), and I still didn't see templates for warning lol. It's probably just me, I've always had bad luck with my monobook and using scripts. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 11:11, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, that was totally correct. The script automatically warns and blocks. But you've had the bad luck to revert a vandal who should be blocked. —DerHexer (Talk) 11:13, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ohhhhhh - now that's pretty cool. My mistake, that's über fast. Is there a way to tell it to block anon only, instead of both anon and account creation blocked? KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 11:17, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're too late. ;) If you want to block accounts you're requested to confirm this first. Otherwise things like this happen. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 11:28, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

lol I think you misunderstand my question Mr. Wizard, when your script blocks an IP address it enables the autoblock and the prevent account creation features. Is there a way to enable only one instead of both? Thats my question. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 11:31, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see. Sorry. ^^ Of course it's possible. But not now because I'll go to university now. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 11:32, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, thanks for the help with it. In the mean time I'll go back to my old monobook for reasons that are supplied here. Basically I prefer to block IP's with anon only if the block is over 1 month. Have a nice day, and happy editing. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 11:35, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks—the ability to turn the quickbar on and off is nice. I do have one more request and if it isn't feasible I more than understand, you've already done more than I could have asked for. But would it be possible to include add tabs that would have a drop down list of templates to use whenever you are at someones talk page? Much like this version of my monobook. Again if not no big deal and thanks once more. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 19:48, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It would be no problem to add talk page templates. Generally this is a monobook for this function—I've changed the code to built an admin monobook. But I'd add this later. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 20:08, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Opinion[edit]

Hi there,

The Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia is a worthless sh** and should be banned altogether from the internet, because it is misguiding people, especially the young ones, that believe it to be a reliable source - when the actually fact is that most if it’s stuff is stolen from other reliable encyclopedias such as the Britannica…

My opinion is that ignorance kids and hackers, that were not allowed to write into other reliable and recognized sources such as the Britannica, - are now making the Wikipedia; but what a mess they are making!

Thank you.

OTT warning[edit]

I removed this warning as it was completely OTT. Check the user's edit history Theresa Knott | The otter sank 23:39, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If I want to add a final/only/blatant warning I'll do it. And I wanted to add one because it was deletion vandalism and a copyright violation. I've ignored the bot which can't judge vandalism better than a human like me can. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 23:48, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well firstly, my apologies, but something strange happened. Maybe it was a lag, I dunno but when I checked the vandalism I saw only a page blanking. I figured a final warning for a probable test edit went too far. Now i see he replaced an article with a new one. Anyhow don't you think that if you decide to upgrade a bots warning then you should replace the warning rather than add a new one. Two warnings for one deed seems odd especially for a user with so little history. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 23:56, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Script[edit]

I just wanted to thank you again for the modifications you provided for my use of your script, I really enjoyed the delete tools. Made clearing out CSD a breeze. I've reverted back to my old version because I noticed a few bugs that made my vandal fighting a little annoying. Sometimes when I would rollback it would leave a vandalism warning other times it wouldn't. (I was careful to use "rollback" and not "normal rollback") A7 (corp) and A7 (band) didn't work for me—I had to delete articles like that manually.

Overall it's a great script but I missed my custom templates and toolbox with it's links to AN/I, AN, RfA, helpme requests, unblock requests, a little too much. I do have a request if you have the time and inclination to do this for me. Would you be able to add your delete tools/quickbar box to my current monobook? User:KnowledgeOfSelf/monobook.js I'd do this myself if I knew how lol. I understand if you can't/don't have the time to do so. Happy editing Mr. Wizard. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 21:30, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your feedback. I'll try to fix these time out bugs (but normally if you go back in the browser's history the script goes on). I don't know what happened with A7 but I'll try to fix it, too. If you just want to use my rollback script you could add User:DerHexer/rollback.js. I want to start a stand alone version for my deletion/block/protection scripts in the future but it's a bit more difficult so that I'd leave a message on your talk page when I've finished it. Thanks and kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:38, 23 November 2007 (UTC) Update: A7 fixed.[reply]

Thanks for the tip about going back in the browsers history, that works fine. A7 (corp) and A7 (band) still aren't working. Cheers. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 16:29, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism on my page[edit]

My username there is Addy btw, and it's definitely one of them vandalising it (almost certainly Syxx or Jaemi). It's very frustrating trying to get it into their heads that there's nothing pretentious, sad, or anything like that about having a UserPage!

Deleting all the talk page redirects as "Unecessary redirects"[edit]

Could you please point me towards the page where consensus is established for this mass deletion? As an editor who frequently 1) accesses Wikipedia by typing in the URL and 2) mispells article names often, including capitalisation, I find it rather disturbing that all these useful redirects were deleted. WP:R#DELETE makes no mention of such deletions, and WP:R#KEEP does make mention of my position. User:Krator (t c) 11:29, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think that talk page redirects who are orphaned and their articles are redirects, too, are really necessary resp. useful? —DerHexer (Talk) 11:44, 24 November 2007 (UTC) Btw, it's easier to move pages when the talk page redirect is deleted. Regards.[reply]

They are certainly not necessary, but are useful. Simply put, there is very little reason to go around and mass delete them. User:Krator (t c) 19:48, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't delete these as a mass campaign without establishing some consensus first. A little discretion needs to be used imho. --kingboyk (talk) 14:59, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

unnecessary redirect[edit]

Sorry, but I fail to see why all these redirects have to be deleted? Is there a consensus to do this?

Reverts needed[edit]

Hey, DerHexer, Bukeparf vandalized the Wayne Static page and the VoABot II page. They were blatant vandalism and no one has done anything to revert them. The Wayne Static page still isn't back to the way it was before, which was perfectly fine. Not going to lie, it's pretty scary. I know there's a process for reporting this, but I'm a unfamiliar with the processes at Wikipedia. For future reference, could you direct me to where I would go?

Ley de Partidos[edit]

Hi there. You just deleted the talk page where a translation from a legal tempt was put in common to try to get the best and most accurate possible results prior to start the article proper. It would have been possibly nicer to advise prior to your deletion so that I could salvage the little work done, but I guess that is not stated in some rules, so that's ok. The thing is that I am not particularly skilled with IT stuff and so I can't find the history of the deleted page (if that existed at all) to retrieve the small piece of work done. I would really appreciate it if you could retrieve this information for me and posted it in my talk page, it's not a big deal anyway, but I'd just prefer not starting over again.

Receiving random/confusing messages involving vandalism[edit]

Hi, whilst browsing wikipedia I got 'new messages'. I clicked on the link and was taken to a page, apparently of my IP address, with a load of messages with 'last warning' and 'very last warning's about vandalising kids tv shows pages. :S

You wrote one of these, so I'm confused. Are these for me? Cos I thought IP addresses were unique to every person, and I've never had the desire to view the history of Teletubbies, nor edit a page on an internet site to gte back at 'The Man' or whatever the person's reasoning was.

The issue of nationality was a "hot" topic on the talk page and a resolution in describing the scientist's nationality was decided upon. The lead paragraph is carefully written to indicate a main birthright as "Scottish" although an American citizenship was obtained. The amount of time spent in Canada is also discussed wherein all three nations have claimed Bell as their native son. FWIW, the user in question has also made some intemperate "attack" statements although I had earlier attempted to explain the issues on his talk page.

Spambots[edit]

Hey DerHexer! Next time you see text like this in an edit, you should block the IP as a zombie proxy that's been compromised by XRumer. Even though I have a bot that nails them, it goes into action only when they create a spam page. Cheers! east.718 at 16:21, December 17, 2007

Don't piss off![edit]

Reversions of Polbot[edit]

Is there any consensus that those reversions should be made? Would be a shame to create another half-bazillion edits if the changes had to be remade. -SCEhard T 00:56, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

the bot was doing unapproved task, and adding improper rationales. the bot should never have done any rationale writing. β^_command 01:00, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm using the admin rollback which takes care of the database and hides these edits from the recent changes per "&bot=1". —DerHexer (Talk) 01:02, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the clarification. Just found the discussion here also. Carry on :-) -SCEhard T 01:03, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello DerHexer. I understand the reason for your rollbacks, and I'm not here to complain about that. But did you mean to revert changes such as this as well? This task was a routine chore that I don't think was controversial. – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 01:24, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, that wasn't correct. Thanks, I'll fix this tomorrow. Good night, —DerHexer (Talk) 01:28, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think Polbot's edit summaries will make it easy for you to determine which edits are which (although the edits are interspersed). Good night, and all the best, – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 01:31, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good job with the reverts. Jecowa (talk) 14:50, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I dont' see anything wrong with article backlink edits such as this, now the rationals are a different story. — Rlevse • Talk • 23:16, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I've changed the bookmarklet so that this won't happen again. I'll undo these edits where the bot added backlinks. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 23:35, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. In order to undo thousands of edits made by a unauthorized bot (on a bot account), you have run an unauthorized bot on your main account to undo constructive changes (or will you claim that your 5000 edits in one hour were by hand?). That is, in one word, hypocrisy. The Evil Spartan (talk) 04:47, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

its called javascript, I have a button that would let me revert all of a users contribs, with the press of a single button, its part of VoA's toolkit, its not a bot. β^_command 04:50, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Really? I would like access to this script. The Evil Spartan (talk) 04:51, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

are you an admin? β^_command 04:52, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, are you? I find it interesting, btw, that you are so zealous to see the undoing of constructive changes to images by a bot, when your own bot has been marking them for deletion. It sounds to me like you've never been interested in actually getting the images up to date, only marking them for deletion in the first place (otherwise, why would you oppose this?) The Evil Spartan (talk) 04:53, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am no longer an admin, but the only works for users who have access to mw-rollback. (thus it would do nothing for you) My issue with the bot is that it made a huge mess adding wrong tags to a lot of pages. β^_command 04:56, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds awfully familiar... in any case, how would you have access to mw-rollback if you're not an admin? The Evil Spartan (talk) 05:00, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I dont have access to mw-rollback, but I used to, call me lazy ive just kept it in my monobook. β^_command 05:01, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They're made by a bookmarklet which I have to add to every new contributions section:

javascript:pages=document.getElementsByTagName('span');for(i=0;i<pages.length;i++){if(pages[i].getAttribute("class")){if(pages[i].getAttribute("class")=='mw-rollback-link'){if(pages[i].parentNode.innerHTML.search(/backlink/)==-1){window.open(pages[i].getElementsByTagName('a')[0].href+'&bot=1')}}}}

Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 07:22, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't it be the Right Thing to block Polbot until it is fixed, rather than reverting its systematic mess-up? -- Ddxc (talk) 17:07, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The bot iswas blocked ~~since~~for a few days and I'm reverting the edits between Dec 17 and 19. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:50, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, Polbot has been unblocked for about 10 hours now. Looks like it was unblocked by User:Snowolf, same admin who blocked it to begin with. - NeutralHomer ^T:C 19:09, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image rationale.[edit]

Hello, just to let you know I reverted your edit of Image:759303.138056.jpg. The rationale was added by a bot, but I checked it through and it was correct (I forgot to add it when I uploaded as I wasn't sure of the policy). Thanks for keeping watch though. :) Man from the Ministry (talk) 00:39, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. The bot has made some thousands of these edits which should be reverted. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 00:40, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the revert[edit]

Thanks for the revert on the image used for the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2007. I thought the fair use rationale I had (along with the three copyright tags) were sufficient enough to avoid any issues with that image, but I guess that was not in the case of that bot. Nevertheless, it was appreciated. Chris (talk) 02:35, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 07:19, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Quick Question[edit]

I see you reverted an edit mad by Polbot on Image:426 lcti.gif. Just wanted to see why. Thanks! Tails0600 (talk) 02:42, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have a look at #Reversions of Polbot. —DerHexer (Talk) 07:18, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image F-URs[edit]

I am curious as to why you reverted several radio logo F-URs that were added by Polbot. - NeutralHomer ^T:C 09:35, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have a look at #Reversions of Polbot. —DerHexer (Talk) 18:44, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did...didn't really tell me anything. I have, though, reverted your edits to about 15 radio/TV logos as the F-URs are a TON better than what was there (I know, I wrote the original and it sucked) and I really can't see what is wrong with the one that Polbot added. - NeutralHomer ^T:C 19:29, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

IT'S STILL REVERTING BACK LINKS[edit]

See [8] Please STOP. — Rlevse • Talk • 13:25, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed the script two minutes later so that it's now reverting correctly. I know that and will fix them, thanks. —DerHexer (Talk) 18:42, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Carolyn Doran[edit]

I would request that you undelete this talk page. There was a current discussion happening on it. Thanks, Rjd0060 (talk) 22:59, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. It was in use regarding an ongoing issue, why delete it now and not when the discussion is resolved? Avruchtalk 23:02, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not start orphaned talk pages. I'll restore it in your namespace. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 23:05, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Umm, I know in some policy it says that talk pages should not be deleted if there is a current, ongoing discussion, which there is (2 of them actually; a possible redirect and the DRV). The page just needs to be restored, not moved to userspace. - Rjd0060 (talk) 23:08, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Restored. —DerHexer (Talk) 23:09, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. - Rjd0060 (talk) 23:09, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good man. No criticism on you, 95% of the time your deletion would have been wisest. This is the exception.--Doc^g 23:12, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but that's really irritating to see an orphaned talk page. Couldn't you discuss it in your user name space, in a portal or something like that? It would be very nice. :) Thanks, —DerHexer (Talk) 23:17, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not really, it is a high profile discussion. But the irritant will only last a few days until the DRV closes, at which time I imagine the article will be restored as a redirect. I can really see that as too irritating.--Doc^g 23:20, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please restore this? There's a growing consensus that the article should be made into a redirect. That's emerging on DRV and on the mailing list (even Jimbo is agreeing) - the details of that redirect were being hammered out by a number of admins on the talk page, when you deleted it. Would you mind restoring it? I don't want to reverse you myself.--Doc^g 23:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request[edit]

Can you delete Fat stinky jew like Kyle's Mom calender that really sucks and Talk:Fat stinky jew like Kyle's Mom calender that really sucks, because they are vandalism redirects created after you reverted that page move vandalism earlier. 81.158.179.39 (talk) 12:14, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For cleaning up after my bot's unauthorized run. . . for cleaning up after the cleaning up, when you found you had reverted too much. . . for being unceasingly civil in the midst of all of it. . . and for being willing to take needed, controversial action while running for Steward, I bestow on you a whole slew of barnstars!

Help to revert[edit]

I put a lot of multiple "citation needed" tags on Miss Universe article for the purpose of improving the verifiability since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia which is based on reliable sources not truth. I can see that you have reverted the changes made by an unknown user to Miss Universe, however, it did not go as far as the last edit in the article history on the 24th of December 2007 (05:24, 24 December 2007 by Alice) containing the multiple needed citation tags edit that I have put. I need your help, if possible, to revert to the edit where I put the multiple needed citation tags, and also your opinion on the matter. I have put the explanation in the discussion page of Miss Universe article why there's a need to put the multiple needed citation tags to the existing info about Miss Universe. Honestly, I'm not proficient enough to do the revert when there's a lot of intermediate edits. Thanks. Ped Admi 16:52, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you again and I look forward to editing alongside you in the future. — E ^talk 12:44, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Script[edit]

Would you mind taking a look at User:Animum/derhexer.js and telling me what's wrong with it? When I had it installed in my monobook:

The adminbar would not appear
All the page content would go outside the page borders
The tabs floated above the page

—Animum (talk) 20:32, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think I'm having a similar problem. The menu shifts from the left to around the middle of the screen and the font size increases quite a lot. Spellcast (talk) 21:04, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your warning[edit]

This was a copy/paste of a six month block notice I posted to a disruptive sockpuppeteer. I suspect the person you left that block warning to is the same person on a different account. I don't particularly mind dealing with the topic because I'm a woman, but some people would find the subject distasteful. You're welcome to discuss it with me or kick it over to WP:AN.
