Suggestion

Hey. Perhaps it'd be a good idea to move User talk:Mr. Wikipediania/ to User talk:Mr. Wikipediania/1 if that's where you intend the archive to be? Since the bot already created the former (apparently in error), and to keep everything above board and in check, it makes sense to do so. —Strange Passerby (talkcont) 14:30, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestion SP. Will do so now. Mr. Wikipediania Talk 14:49, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
 Done , but I cannot move pages yet for some strange reason. Mr. Wikipediania Talk 14:52, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
Oh, yeah, you're probably not autoconfirmed on this account yet. —Strange Passerby (talkcont) 14:53, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Your sig

Hi there! Very glad to make your acquaintance. :) I'm flattered that you have chosen my user page and my sig to base yours on. It's nice to know that someone thought that they were worth copying. That said, would you be willing to change your sig to something that looks a little less like mine? Some people might mistakenly think that our accounts are related somehow. By the way, the copying continues a fine tradition - my user page design was shamelessly stolen from none other than (an old version of) User:Jimbo Wales. Best regards — Mr. Stradivarius on tour 05:08, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Also, I've removed some stuff from your user page, including the editor review template, as it looked like they had been copied over from my user page by mistake. Feel free to put them back in if you really are interested in all those articles I created. ;-) — Mr. Stradivarius on tour 05:47, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
Thanks, I will get working on them right away when I have the time. Mr. Wikipediania Talk 06:20, 23 May 2012 (UTC)


Suggestion

Hi there. I can see you're clearly upset about the Rinpoche case, but may I suggest you lay off editing the long term abuse report. There's no need to turn it into a shrine and there's nothing more that needs to be added to it. The best way to combat this kind of trolling is just to ignore it and not rise to it. Hope you take this on board Basalisk inspect damageberate 10:42, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, I will do so. The thing is that this troll won't leave me alone. He recently made some additions to one of my subpages from an IP Which apparently traces to Romania. Mr. Wikipediania Talk 11:43, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
I know, I read the report. However, barking about it every time he shows up is just going to encourage him to keep hounding you - running to tell teacher isn't going to make him go away. Ignoring him will, eventually. Try to forget about it. Basalisk inspect damageberate 12:00, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
OK, I will try to. Mr. Wikipediania Talk 13:32, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Edit summaries

I notice you reverted an edit at Wikipedia:Ownership of articles. Please use a neutral edit summary with at least an idea of the reason for the revert. If editor A does something, we have to assume good faith and believe that A thinks their edit is useful. Accordingly, editor B must not refer to A as an "idiot", or refer to their edit as "undo abuse". Such reasons are unsustainable because A will presumably have similar feelings about B—differences have to resolved in a civil manner.

Further, you reverted this edit by an IP with summary "identified as test/vandalism using STiki". I know that is an automatic message, but it must not be used when reverting what is clearly a good faith edit. A brief but suitable summary for a revert in this case would be "unsourced". Per WP:BITE it is important that (possibly) new editors are not reverted without a supportable reason. Johnuniq (talk) 11:15, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Whoops, thanks for the heads up Johnuniq. Will take them into account next time :) Mr. Wikipediania Talk 11:17, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
