Message to 147.91.1.43

Hello. This is jut to tell you that this 147.91.1.43 is a public university domain. As a consequence a lot of user would have access to this IP, and considering low behavoural standars of people who use this computers I am not one bit supprised that this happened. This is just for your info. Bye--147.91.1.35 09:49, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nice

Work on wikiHow - I've never really known what to do with that article :) - Estel ^(talk) 13:42, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for the welcome, hopefully I will figure things out and get started, just like on the other wiki... Shaiaqua 03:13, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anon warning

Thanks for not biting me. I'm a relative newcomer. I didn't really know what to do. What should I do in the future? --Umalee 03:29, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All right. Message received. Again, thanks. --Umalee 17:18, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Spam

Do u really understand difference betwen spam and informative links?It seems just to show ur seniority, u keep on doing such acts.If the links added by me are spam then kindly have a look at other links. thank u —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 122.163.81.249 (talk • contribs).

Spam

You do not know any difference between spam and informative links. You just like to show off your intellectual superiority that only you believe you possess. Modellooks 03:39, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. —— Eagle101 ^{Need help?} 03:54, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LInks

I have found a site that has rights to, and is showing some bollywood movies/songs/clips/trailers free. And this will be worth a watch for any eastern / middle eastern movie/cinema/theater lovers because Indian cinema is very popular in easter/middelesastern countries. There is a lot of free legal content and info provided on the site MovieDesi.com You had reverted the page back on bollywood and sent me a message.

Many thanks for your tireless efforts in keeping article clear of spam and other nonsense. Wikipedia is a better quality project because of hardworking and conscientious editors like you!--Hu12 07:52, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Versageek - Creative Writing

I don't know how you managed to revert the linkspam, which has been polluting the Creative_Writing article, and make the revert stick. I am grateful as I removed, undid or reverted on a daily basis and had steeled my resolve to continue. But you did something to make it stick. What was that? Thanks. Porthugh 01:27, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it was just by chance that I was the last person to revert, User:Muchness's spam warnings on the IP's talk page probably had more to do with it not coming back than I did. :) --Versageek 04:47, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Complex systems

Thank you for your contribution to the complex system article in the past. Currently there is a Call for Deletion for the associated Category:Complex systems covering this interdisplinary scientific field. If you would like to contribute to the discussion, you would be very welcome. Please do this soon if possible since the discussion period is very short. Thank you for your interest if you can contribute. Regards, Jonathan Bowen 14:38, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vocabulary Wiki

Hi, I placed a link to the new Vocabulry Wiki on the TOEFL article. You removed the link. I am aware that links are nofollow and this link was not placed for SEO purposes. The vocabulary wiki is a free site that has been created with the intention of being a valuable resource - especially for people interested in TOEFL.

I will not change your edit at this stage. However, I would appreciate it if you could consider reversing this deletion.

Also, I would appreciate it if you could consider contributing to the vocabulary wiki yourself. As it's just starting out we are in need of experienced editors such as yourself getting involved.

Thanks Marc —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.206.38.135 (talk) 04:59, 21 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Please see WP:EL#Links_normally_to_be_avoided, in particular #3 & #12. I have a friend who would be very interested in your project, I'll pass along the URL next time I chat with him. --Versageek 05:31, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Tripura

No I cant, but I thought it was just me! I changed the image because the previous map gave used a city locater for the state. i'll change it back for now, but we should really get a proper Sate map. --WoodElf 15:43, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: payroll tax

Hi, i put the link on the payroll tax because it was a good explanation of what payroll taxes are used for, but upon thinking about it more, its really only applied to the US and the wiki article on payroll taxes cover other countries so I guess it doesn't totally apply. Thanks for clearing that up. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mibs (talk • contribs).

User:71.91.43.232

Haha yeah. I saw that someone else had warned him/her.. then I went to look at the warning and saw that it was identical to the first. I figured you had just used the option from the [1] menu instead of the [2] menu so I replaced it with a copyvio warning from the [2] menu.. meaning, I think, second offense? Apparently first and second offenses are identical. But no, I wasn't just trying to have my name on there.. I wanted the warning to be a little harsher. For what its worth, I reverted it to your signature -- drumguy8800 C T 04:15, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User:Ranahki

Hi Versageek, Thank you for your tireless effort in keeping Wikipedia clean. I placed a link to the Cross-Cultural Terminology on some articles as I thought that it would be a good and valuable auxiliary resource. I'm a newcomer at Wikipedia and I'm sorry that my good intentions has been seen as advertising, which I have no intentions of doing. Besides, Wikipedia visitors using the terminology does not serve any other purpose than giving satisfaction that my work might be of use to anyone who is interested.

New to Wikipedia - question about links

I see on a lot of pages, the links are listed as references. If I had added links to resources at the end of the freelance page and labeled them references, would they still have been deleted? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tsflynn (talk • contribs) 14:26, 27 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Yes, they would be deleted. References are the outside sources used to support specific points/statements in the article. The links you added were "general interest" topics. --Versageek 15:26, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is it appropiate to post those links anywhere? Thanks for your help. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.243.23.36 (talk) 17:02, 27 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

probably not, while they may have information related to the topic, they don't contribute to or supplement the encyclopedic content of the article. --Versageek 02:10, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blanketing

What I wrote wasn't nonsense. It actually happened. At least the Carl Day part, maybe not the Sacremento, California part. 130.126.67.198 20:49, 29 April 2007 (UTC)Chartreuse[reply]

I don't doubt it happened, but it really isn't encyclopedic material. (anymore than the Sacremento stuff was), which is why I removed both paragraphs. Sounds like you guys had a fun party though :) --Versageek 20:51, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OTRS

Just in case you aren't aware, a policy was recently implemented by the Wikimedia Foundation, regarding access to nonpublic data (see [1]) Please note if you do not comply with these rules you should remove yourself from OTRS volunteering where your name is listed. Otherwise, please ignore this message :) Kind regards, Majorly (hot!) 18:12, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to Continuity of Care Record

Just a quick comment to say that I think your last edit (where you removed a bunch of links) was more consistent than the original edit where you had removed just one of the links - for no apparent reason.

Some of the links you removed, however, maybe should be reconsidered, such as the www.ccrstandard.com link which I believe is sponsored by the AAFP.

MHO 146.243.4.157 21:31, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, The ccrstandard.com site is almost devoid of content, it has an "under construction" notice on the main page. If you try a few of the links, it eventually takes you to one of the 'solution providers' that has an online demo. I found a link on the CHiT site that lists all of the providers, I (just) added that as a separate link & removed an ASTM link that went to a generic health category rather than the CCR standard. Hopefully this will give our readers a collection of useful things, without crossing over into being a directory or collection of links. Thanks for helping to keep this article accurate & helpful. :) --Versageek 22:21, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation. The CHiT link you added seems to solve all the problems we were getting into with the multiple links. Thanks! 146.243.4.157 17:51, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks2

so nice of you to erase all of my hard efforts and work to further expand the site you fuck up youve nothing better to do than sit around all day glued to the computer and shit like that i hope you choke on a potato chip —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Poevermore (talk • contribs).

Excuse you

That user deleted my article when I did it just like it suppoed to be in wikipeida so he had it comming.

--Muriness 00:49, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That user can't delete pages, only admins can delete pages. She nominated it for deletion, and the admin who actually deleted it agreed that it should be deleted. As I mentioned on Umalee's talk page, you should communicate with the admin who actually did the deletion. The best course would be to file a formal request for deletion review. --Versageek 00:54, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

www.addictinggames247.com

You took down my link which was in "miniclip". My site contains games from miniclip.... it is not spam. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.16.135.167 (talk) 20:09, 7 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

You spammed the link onto 7 different pages. Even on the miniclip page, the site is only remotely related to the subject of the article. This type of linking is normally to be avoided (#13). Wikipedia is not a collection of links nor a directory. --Versageek 20:33, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting my article on page ranking?

Could u please explain me why u delete my article from "Page Ranking"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dimitar petrov (talk • contribs) 11:39, 8 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

I did not delete anything. A well written & referenced article on that subject already exists at PageRank. It appears that you already knew that when you blanked that page and then overwrote the redirect from Page ranking to PageRank with your own content. Please don't do that sort of thing, it will certainly be reverted every time. --Versageek 13:19, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oops

Just got your talk page message. I had no idea I edited Sandbox instead of Wikipedia:Sandbox. How embarrassing! Thanks for the heads up.

BTW, your WP user page is nice. See you over on wikiHow. As you can see I don't check talk here often. :) --JackHerrick 15:51, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
