What happened to Tedderbot? He used to make the end of my workday so enjoyable with his latest finds. If you wind him up and restart him, make sure he does his work at the same time. --Esprqii (talk) 23:05, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the nudge. Looks like there was a bot-breaking code change on wikimedia, I need to update my perl libraries. tedder (talk) 23:44, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Upgraded libraries and ran it by hand. It'll be on the schedule normally, meaning it will next run in.. uh, 15 minutes. Doh. tedder (talk) 23:48, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yay...see, we humans do add value! --Esprqii (talk) 00:00, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Usually we add chaos to a system, but sure, that can be considered value :-) tedder (talk) 00:17, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

hello tedder well I am sorry but your link is incorrect please look at this one

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=Invasio+Barbarorvm&rls=com.microsoft:en-gb:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7_____en&redir_esc=&ei=7ozDS8qoBZ-80gSzn4W3DA

thanks,Secthayrabe (talk)

Hi- that's a google web search, not a google news search. See WP:GHITS, but basically existence does not prove notability. tedder (talk) 21:17, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Alkali Lake Chemical Waste Dump

U noted in the discussion that u might have more information: " The article/reference titled "LEGISLATURE'S 1991 FUND EXCLUDES SOUTHERN OREGON SITE" says the following. Sorry, it's behind a paywall; if someone wants to investigate further, email me. " I don't have your email, but am interested. =) What is the proper way to include that chain of custody (which I missed) ? Duff (talk) 05:40, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Use the "email this user" function on the left toolbox and I'll see if I can help at all. tedder (talk) 05:42, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re: South Park Blocks

Not sure if you are interested or not, but South Park Blocks is such a great article--consider nominating it for Good status! --Another Believer _(Talk) 06:14, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the nudge- I think I will. tedder (talk) 06:36, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Scappoose, Oregon

Hi Tedder. Looking for some clarification. Thanks. --Global777 (talk) 16:13, 17 April 2010 (UTC)--[reply]

Hi- I assume you are talking about this removal? What's your issue with it? How does that link meet WP:EL? tedder (talk) 21:05, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tedder. Still not clear. How does it violate it? WP:EL Thanks. --Global777 (talk) 21:51, 17 April 2010 (UTC)--[reply]

Tedder, You indicated, on your page, that you preferred to have discussions carried out on our own pages. I had placed the following on my page, thinking that you would go there to read my comment. I'm assuming that you haven't read it:

Aloha, Tedder. You removed my edit, regarding Scappoose, Oregon, describing my edit as Spam and "Disruptive editing." Respectfully, I am inquiring as to the elements and/or aspects of the link that warranted this removal and comments. The information, within the linked page, has no commercial agenda or value. It is simply a composite of information, specific to Scappoose, Oregon, and updated periodically by the City Manager.

I grew up in Scappoose and am preparing to attend my 40th class reunion, this summer. I was asked to add this link by one of the organizers of the reunion, as well as a lifelong resident of Scappoose.

I currently live in Aloha and have a nephew attending PSU.

Thank you for your time... --Global777 (talk)-- —Preceding undated comment added 21:57, 17 April 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Sorry, I follow so many pages that I hadn't seen it. Here's the thing about that link: what value does it provide to Wikipedia? The only information it provides is a subset of the contact information available on the city website. Further, it doesn't provide any cited information, so I'm having trouble seeing what it adds to Wikipedia. tedder (talk) 07:43, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Burgess

A Google search will show numerous sources for Burgess, as you already know. BLP does not apply to convicted persons. You know this, as well. I am wondering why you are so favourable to Burgess. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.183.233.153 (talk) 11:57, 21 April 2010 (UTC) The last time I mentioned Burgess, the mention was removed on the grounds of alleged lack of notability.[reply]
