Hi, and welcome to my talk page. Feel free to leave any questions or comments!

Page Merger[edit]

Hi,

I merged the page Absorption (physics) you created into Absorption (electromagnetic radiation) and marked it for deletion. I don't want you to be discouraged by this from other contributions to Wikipedia. Cheers, Samohyl Jan 19:24, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, no problem.Pyrofork (talk) 04:55, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User Warnings[edit]

Hi there. Could you please consider starting user warnings at level 1, or 2, Instead of three? It makes it easier to sufficiently warn users should they need to be reported to WP:AIV. Remember to Assume Good Faith, and Don't bite the newcomers!. Thanks! Dadude3320 01:05, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Generally I do try to do so. However, when I see repeated vandalism or something obscene I'm inclined not to always "assume good faith." I do, though, see a couple incidents where I was a bit harsh. Thank you for your comment and I will fix these things. Pyrofork (talk) 01:42, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of warnings[edit]

Hello, Pyrofork! On User talk:Claylu, you cannot revert his warning removal. See WP:UP, they can if they want to. Happy editing! Cheers,JetLover (Report a mistake) 17:40, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry -- my mistake. I was under the impression the rules were the same as for anonymous IPs. Thank you for helping my clarify that! Pyrofork (talk) 03:05, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

thanks[edit]

thanks pyrofork. i have my account now and should have no more IP problems —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.197.116.25 (talk) 09:42, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem - drop by if you have any questions! Pyrofork (talk) 20:09, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

uc davis SOM[edit]

Did as you requested. See new reference. Chyu83

Thank you -- looks good. Pyrofork (talk) 23:25, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

St. Clair county maps[edit]

So long as the map at the top of St. Clair County, Michigan links to Image:Map of Michigan highlighting St. Clair County.svg it can't be deleted. You can check which image it uses by clicking on it in the article. Hope this makes sense. Angus McLellan (Talk) 00:50, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that -- I didn't meant to change that page. Thought I reverted it back but apparently I didn't.Pyrofork (talk) 00:51, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

UC Davis section capitalization[edit]

I have reverted your changes. The MOS is quite explicit and in fact the section is quoted for you right before the title. There is an ongoing discussion on the article talk page and the current consensus is that it should be "Colleges and schools". Please check the talk page before continuing to make the same changes after it has been reverted. Mikemill (talk) 23:36, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Megan Fox[edit]

If there's a reliable source, then add it. A Youtube video posted by zombified1369 is not reliable, no matter what it purports to be a transcript or video of. Too many chances for modification, no way to verify the authorship, no way to verify the integrity. Other sources stand a chance, but not Youtube. Before adding BLP violating material again, discuss your source on the talk page and get approval. Until then, the material is out.—Kww(talk) 03:16, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you can find a video published by either the Jimmy Kimmel show or the network that broadcasts the Jimmy Kimmel show, yes.—Kww(talk) 03:20, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Piece of Mind[edit]

I was not refuting her religion, I was refuting the myspace reference. Mainly, I was refuting the relationship with Shia LaBuff [sic] that people claim to exist, (but it really doesn't.) the use of "her official myspace" was dubious at best. I erased everything that cited that myspace page, but since the odds are she is catholic, i didn't erase it the second time I edited the page, I choose my battles.

Furthermore, she never says in your link that "I AM A CATHOLIC RIGHT NOW," and going to bible camp as a 10 year old does not mean she is now a catholic, in fact in that video it said that camp marked her downward spiral. Given her recent history I would wager that she is now an atheist, there was also an interview I read that said she would ask Megatron to destory the white trash bible belt section of America, but that's neither here nor there.

My beef wasn't with you, it was with an anonymous IP user who thought a fake myspace was her official.

vandalism of user:talk pages[edit]

i wasn't aware that leaving a comment on someone's :talk page was considered vandalism. Clown (talk) 03:56, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • while not logged into my account, i left a comment on another user's talk page that you mistook as vandalism, then you REVERTED HIS TALK PAGE. i know you must troll the recently edited pages or else you wouldn't have seen it; however, i suggest you stick to being a vandalism cop for actual wikipedia ENTRIES (and not talk pages). [user]:talk pages are for users to leave comments to each other. they are not encyclopedia entries, thus you shouldn't have any vested interest in "protecting" them. Clown (talk) 06:51, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Sanfranman59&action=historysubmit&diff=308610779&oldid=308610732 points out the difference between my edit and what you reverted it back to. the point being, this is a user:talk page, designed to facilitate discussion, and does not require your interference. thank you for policing up actual vandalism and your service to the wiki community, but this fight didn't need your involvement. in retrospect, i probably should have formatted my entry on his talk page with a table of contents entry, but i just wanted to get my point across, which is probably why you treated it as vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Clown (talkcontribs) 08:17, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
