Okay, do you have proof of that? If you don't, you shouldn't be making such accusations. Also, anybody can read any comment you've ever made to anybody, including Cute 1 4 u. —JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 01:31, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edits to Fred - Whoops[edit]

Good lord, that was stupid of me. I'd been following that vandal and somehow managed to make two consecutive mistakes in reverting vandalism to that article. As for obscenities here, apparently you wish to keep them? I'd thought they were simple vandalism. - Bootstoots 02:36, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As long as it as accidental, it's no problem. Sorry for the warning, I'll strike it through in a moment. And those messages, they are vandalism, but I want them to stay as I can link to or quote from them easily if I don't have to use my edit history. --JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 02:39, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alana tauert[edit]

see it now. It took me 4 minutes to translate - I just wanted to decline CSD right away. Note for the future - read CSD A2 carefully - not english means you take it to WP:PNT, not mark it for deletion, unless it's deemed inappropriate for enwiki and is actually transwiki'd to otherwiki. Otherwise, usual notability criteria etc apply. - CrazyRussian talk/email 04:04, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, right. Thanks. --JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 04:05, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

what does the "edit" button do?[edit]

as above. —— Eagle (ask me for help) 05:00, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Er, I think that's how you do the vandalisationing thing that people seem to come here for. Maybe that? --JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 05:03, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

funny... new word too!. —— Eagle (ask me for help) 05:05, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

excuse me white[edit]

excuse me white, but i'm nominating that page for deletion. don't you dare single me out cause i'm black. I ain't gonna bow to you white supremacist. just WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? I ain't no slave to no white, especially a homosexual freak. I ain't no slave to you, so stop your racist remarks. --Namnee 10:53, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to nominate the article for deletion, don't blank a previous AfD; create a new one, and add (2nd nomination) to the end of the new nomination. --JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 10:55, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just wondering, why don't you remove all the crap people stick on this page? -- Steel 12:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I like the idea of my talk pages being a record of what people have said to me, and I want to stick to that; plus it allows me to show somebody something that was said quickly without having to search through edit histories, should I ever have to. --JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 14:21, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Each to their own I guess. I wouldn't think twice about reverting half of this stuff if it appeared on my page. -- Steel 14:30, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A couple of weeks ago, I'd have done the same. --JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 14:31, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:JROBBO[edit]

Why'd you revert my post on JROBBO's talk page. While I realised that what I was saying was a mistake on my part because I misinterpreted JROBBO's edit, that's no reason to revert it. "Please do not compromise the integrity of pages." Talk pages don't have to be as rigid in their quality and integrity because they are talk pages, not articles. Harryboyles 08:20, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I didn't mean to revert that. I didn't think it had done it. --JD[^{don't talk}|_email] 08:21, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Good faith edits by 70.81.13.190"[edit]

Hello. You edited Kazushi Sakuraba due to a policy violation from 70.81.13.190. You cited the "good faith" clause, but then 70.81.13.190 went right back and violated the policy in the exact same manner. Now, we have to edit the page again, and my guess is that the same user will violate the policy until the page is semi-protected.

I'll continue petitioning for the article to become semi-protected. Anonymous, unregistered users are constantly editing Sakuraba and adding back the links to illegally uploaded videos. This needs to be addressed. Thank you!

Okay, you should have mentioned that in the edit summary. It was blank, so I assumed the edit was vandalism. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 13:44, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for 2004/06[edit]

Sorry JD If I hurt your feelings or disrespected you in any kind of way. I know what it feels like to be attacked by someone about your sexuality because that's happened to me be4. I just wanna say if your upset then you don't have to respond to this, but you know that sometimes things don't comeout right. And your right its none of my business. I've only been her for less than a week, but I feel so welcomed like I can do anything(NICE). I hope you aren't mad, Good Afternoon to you --BeenInDaGhettoForYears 18:24, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, whatever. Hopefully you've learnt from this event, and you'll watch what you say in future, whether it's meant to be offensive or not. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 18:36, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Help & thanks[edit]

Well, a good reason would be -- the user deliberately wishes it to be deleted/blocked, right? Would I have to go to extremes to get this accomplished? (Pardon sarcasm.) Anyway, thanks for answering the call. Do-re-mi-La-ri-fa-ri 18:44, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know, I saw it and answered him. Just ignore it; the other accounts you made have all already been dealt with anyway, so I don't think there's anything to worry about. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 19:12, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Archiving[edit]

I noticed you asked Yamla to archive your talk page for you. I'd be more than willing to do it for you if you want me to. If you don't want me to do it, no pressure, but the offer's there. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 21:02, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So...How do I make archives?Any ideas?--Always Gotta Keep It Real, Cute 1 4 u 21:34, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All you gotta tell me is how you want the subpages named, and I'll do it for you. You want them named July 2006 and August 2006, 0606 and 0706, 06-07 and 07-07, or just Archive 1 and Archive 2? --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 21:36, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I want to name them by numbers.Such as Archive 1 and Archive 2.--Always Gotta Keep It Real, Cute 1 4 u 21:43, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. It might get confusing which month each archive is for once you have a lot of them, but as long as you have them all labelled on another page, it shouldn't matter. What you have to do, is copy the stuff you want to move, and then go to User talk:Cute 1 4 u/Archive 1 and paste it there. I'll do the first one for you, and you can do the next if you're confident enough. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 21:46, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, that's one done. I'll do June for you as well, as it's quite large. I'll leave July to you, you should put it here. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 21:50, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I did July for you, as I didn't see you put the content you deleted anywhere. I'll look into getting links done as well. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 22:02, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All done. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 22:15, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Therapy[edit]

Hey JD, It's me the anonymous IP guy. We chatted a few weeks ago about you going to see a shrink (ONLY if you want to!!!). Just wondering what has come of that, if anything? I'll provide a listening ear if you need it, but just give it a thought. You can blank out the sociopathic traits in you for a while but NOT FOREVER!!! Let me know, possibly email or something, I'd love to chat again :) 88.109.122.171 23:22, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Spiral's song thing[edit]

If you haven't already, you might want to move the article you made to the article space. There's no real point in it not being there, and if somebody else thinks it's not notable enough, they can always try and get it deleted. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 14:46, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was going to wait and see what happened in the charts but yeah I think I'll just move it... can I just move the page or should I re-create it? -- AnemoneProjectors (talk) 15:05, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The pages I've been making in my userspace, I've just moved. Whichever way you go about doing it though, you can tag the page in your userspace with {{db-u1}} if you want it deleted afterwards. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 15:11, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I just moved it anyway and used {{db-owner}}. -- AnemoneProjectors (talk) 15:14, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

lauren's link[edit]

considering that there are articles relating to bb06 housem8 misbehaviours. lauren's incident doesn't seem to be registered along with other housema8s, ie michael

"Lauren from Sydney, was evicted from a tavern in South Hurstville on Friday night. http://www.news.com.au/sundaytelegraph/story/0,,19909511-5001026,00.html"

the above is what i want to contribute to the bb06 site however jd has other thoughts.

what do other readers think?

I am JD. I think you want to put that here. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 15:15, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also, that link doesn't work anymore. If it's correct, The Sunday Telegraph might have removed the story from their website. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 15:17, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reverts to JAPW Page[edit]

I made those reverts because that history of the promotion was copied and pasted directly from the JAPW website. So now you know why I reverted.

If the article is a copyright violation, you should use the appropriate copyvio tags - {{db-copyvio}} or {{copyvio}}. Regardless of how much of the article is a copyvio, you should always note major changes in the edit history. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 22:53, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lloyd Pye vandalism[edit]

Many thanks for sorting out the incredible flush of vandalism the Lloyd Pye article seemed to receive today! I have my suspicions that it's only one user (user:Luluamelu), as they've tried to add similar (irrelevant!) material about mitochondrial eve to the article before - although he/she does seem to be using multiple ip addresses. Any suggestions as to what (if anything) I should do about it? Cheers --JonAyling 16:08, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. If you have concerns that a user may be using sockpuppets to change information or vandalise articles, you should go to WP:RAA for more information on what to do next. An administrator would be better able to advise you on what to do, and may be able to do something more permanent or long-term. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 16:17, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't. But it's not called Celebrity Big Brother UK, it's called Celebrity Big Brother, and it's in the UK. But I can't move the page. -- AnemoneProjectors (talk) 19:52, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't edit the page after it was set as a redirect. It was moved from Celebrity Big Brother (UK) to Celebrity Big Brother which created the redirect. I tried to move Celebrity Big Brother UK to Celebrity Big Brother (UK) but couldn't. I then editied Celebrity Big Brother (UK) to point to Celebrity Big Brother UK instead of your disambiguation page. It hadn't been edited between the move and my edit. -- AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:14, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Horrid use of equal signs"[edit]

I've reverted your deletion of these in List of female porn stars and made sure to restore any subsequent edits as well.

This is adapted from my experience in writing computer code, where you have a very similar situation as we do when editing articles. There is no way to bold any text; all emphasis needs to be added by using some other method.

This is a method that my colleagues and I have used extensively in the past; I don't know for sure that it's any sort of standard, but have always thought it was. (It's one of those things I've been doing so long that I forgot who taught it to me, when, and why.)

I know it's ugly - it's supposed to be; it draws your eye to the message inside the box. Folks are still sometimes wikilinking names that have no articles, but at least they won't have the excuse that they didn't know not to do it. Since this isn't visible in the article itself, I'd appreciate erring on the side of functionality rather than aesthetics.

I returned to re-word this note as I wasn't sure the earlier one wouldn't be judged as less than friendly; that wasn't my intent. Hopefully, this is a bit "lighter".

Thanks.—Chidom ^talk 08:30, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My concern wasn't with the note at all, or the use of the equal signs; it was the fact that so many equal signs were used that the edit box had a horizontal scroll bar. I know it's probably not a big deal, since there's not much data going across the edit box, but all the same unnecessary horizontal bars are something that bugs me. I actually don't think they're necessary as the information is repeated at the top of each section, but if you think they have to be used, do you think you could use a couple less? Would make the box a bit less... horizontal. _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 08:58, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem; I just split the message onto two lines. I can't for the life of me get a horizontal scroll bar to appear in the edit window; had I seen that, I would have changed the format to start with. I share your disdain for horizontal scroll bars. Have good days.—Chidom ^talk 10:03, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Your edit to Thor's page[edit]

Thanks for the edit, and the help. I am sorry, I emailed you cause I didnt know why you had taken the helpme tag off the page... I guess i shoud slow down in future! Thanks again. Thor.

Thanks for breaking the template...[edit]

Thanks for NOT asuming good faith and being incivil. Doing hundreds of unicodifying clean ups with AWB can occasionally throw up a mistake and as its semi automated its not always apparent straight away. So next time keep your sarcastic comments to yourself thank you. Death Eater Dan (Muahaha) 18:08, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was not assuming bad faith; I know that AWB can sometimes do what you did; but AWB is not an automated bot, and all edits are the responsibility of the person making them. The AWB page instructs editors to check every edit before clicking save, and considering the two words AWB made bold would have been right at the top of the edit box and right at the top of the preview changes thing, it's not really that hard to miss. Anyway, I'm sorry if you think I was assuming bad faith, this wasn't the case. I just thought it seemed a bit odd that this was missed. _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 18:18, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know it is not automated, thats why I said its semi automated, and yes it was my fault but this is why we have assume good faith so people don't leave sarcastic comments when an editor does make a mistake. A quick note on a talk page would have been more civil. Regards Death Eater Dan (Muahaha) 18:24, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was actually going to leave one, but as I was busy doing something else I didn't have the time to. As I've said already, I wasn't assuming bad faith, and the fact that you'd assume I'd assume bad faith is in itself assuming bad faith, which is not assuming good faith. I've apologised for the problem, and I've told you why I didn't deal with it earlier, but at the end of the day you're still responsible for making the edit in the first place. I'll admit that the comment I made could be seen as being uncivil, and again I apologise for that, but the comment you made could also be seen as uncivil. _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 18:35, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Great template[edit]

I think your status template (upper-right corner) is incredibly great. Is it available for others to use/borrow/steal?—Chidom ^talk 00:33, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's actually not mine; I don't even have the skill to make something that does nothing. Misza13 is the person that wrote the script, information on the script is here. All I've done is added images to it, moved it to the top right corner, and changed the text.

Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition[edit]

Thanks for setting up the new infobox for the Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition article. However, I decided to revert it to the original table because I don't see the new infobox. Maybe it's a incompatability issue of that infobox with IE. I'll try to find a better alternative which can be seen in IE as well as in many browsers. - 上村七美 | talk 12:34, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw your edit summary, and was about to ask you about it. The infobox does work in Internet Explorer 6, with no problems. Have you tried looking at other articles that also have the infobox on them, to see if the problem might be with the particular article? BB06 or BB6 UK are two of the articles where the infobox is used. Is there a problem with those articles? _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 12:36, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've been to those articles, but I don't see them either. My user interface skin is the modified version of the Classic skin because it loads faster. But like I said, the infobox may not be compatible across skins. - 上村七美 | talk 12:43, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see the problem now. I don't know how to fix that without removing the show/hide thing, but I'll look into it. _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 12:47, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can see the infoboxes now. Thank you peering in the code. - 上村七美 | talk 12:58, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All I've done is removed the stuff that hides the housemates information. If there's no way to do something that'd work with the Classic skin, I guess it'll just get left the way it is now. _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 12:59, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like the housemates info has been hidden again. Still tweaking with the infobox template? - 上村七美 | talk 15:26, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I did a table out by hand, it's on my clipboard now. Just gimmie a sec to check that it's alright, and I'll put it on the article if there's no problems with it. _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 15:29, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Except for Aldred's status color (which I corrected), the new table looks similar to the userbox template, which is good. The new infobox even better now. - 上村七美 | talk 15:54, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
