ACOTF

You voted for Rum Rebellion. It has been selected as the new Australian Collaboration. Please help to improve the article. Thanks. Scott Davis Talk 12:30, 19 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They've started changing my password as well. How long have you been putting up with this?--Shanel 05:01, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was first hit on 19 March, when they changed my password 20 times. Then again today with another 20 attempts. It appears that being blocked doesn't stop one from partaking in this kind of disruption. Cnwb 05:05, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

David Mitchell

I can see you have been working on articles such as Robbie Muir, Making Losers Happy, and Xpressway, which mention someone called David Mitchell. David Mitchell is a disambiguation page, and I have been trying to sort out the links to it. Can you tell me what would be a good distinguishing description? Should he be David Mitchell (musician) or can you be more specific? Thank you. CarolGray 19:26, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

David Mitchell (musician) would be perfect. Thanks. Cnwb 21:49, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Thank you. CarolGray 18:33, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User page

I just wanted to say that I really like your user page. That's all. Isopropyl 05:41, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. To be fair though, I should admit that the design is stolen from User:Vague Rant. Cnwb 05:42, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

203.217.8.30

Can you please increase the block time of 203.217.8.30? It seems to come back almost as soon as the blocks expire. There are zero useful edits from the IP and it has attempted to get multiple users passwords. JoshuaZ 23:47, 26 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have extended the block to 1 week. Has s/he been attempting to change your password too? Cnwb 23:52, 26 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No, I was referring to in the block log, he has attempted to do the same for Jossi and Shanel. JoshuaZ 23:55, 26 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I apparently spoke too soon. He has apparently tried to change mine as well. (about 120 attempts or so). JoshuaZ 01:43, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No Smoking

I agree with your statements in the lounge/talk. I don't see how the admin general could be appointed at 15. Too young. I went ahead and removed the picture. -- Damien Vryce

A watered-down version of the proposed policy against censorship is now open for voting. Will you kindly review the policy and make your opinions known? Thank you very much. Loom91 13:09, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I decided the source and tagging were good enough to keep. If you disagree, please nominate at IFD again and I will let some other admin make the call. -Nv8200p talk 13:56, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

203.217.8.30

Hi I just thought that you should be informed of something about this particular I.P address. It is the I.P of a school in Australia, Tasmania, Glenorchy. The school's name is Dominic College. On behalf of my fellow students, I wish to apologise for all vandalism caused by students mis-using this brilliant website. Thank you.

CNBW; have created this page as a stub and would appreciate any editorial input. Thanks. Lentisco 07:48, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

list of noise musicians!

Hi

Why do you remove the artists I add to the list of noise musicians? I'm curious to know. thanks, ~ Gudnason 11:06, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for your enquiry. I removed some of the artists from the List of noise musicians because many of them were (what wikipedia refers to as) non-notable. If you have a look at WP:MUSIC you can see what is generally considered the criteria for inclusion in Wikipedia. If you believe the artists you added (none of which, by the way, had their own articles yet) are notable enough, please create an article for each which explains how they are notable. The list of noise musicians has suffered a spate of non-notable additions lately, and myself and other editors have been making a concerted effort to keep an eye on this.

Gnarloo

Why did you delete Gnarloo? It is commonly mistaken for Gnaraloo and a redirect is appropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vooose (talkcontribs)

I have changed the page to a proper redirect. Cnwb 11:36, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cnwb. I have started a proposal at Portal talk:Australia for an inclusion of an anniversary/on this day section to be displayed on the portal. If you are interested in this making this happen, you can comment there or go to the anniversary pages and adding in things that you consider to be notable events. Regards, Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 05:49, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Linkfilter

I admit the site isn't very large, so it's relatively negligable. Note that I'm not at all affiliated with the site so it wasn't personal advertising. As for whether or not it should be deleted, that's your call. I just read somewhere that people noticed it as a precursor to Digg, and the style and content seem to suggest so.

Mwastrod 17:50, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it's everyone's call. The way 'prod' tags work is this - a user can tag an article which they believe should be deleted, if they believe most Wikipedians would agree (see Wikipedia:Proposed deletion for further explanation). If someone believes that it shouldn't be deleted (such as yourself), then the article can be sent to 'AFD' (Articles for Deletion), where users debate whether articles stay or not. If you believe the article should stay, you are quite entitled to remove the prod tag, although it's usually likely that someone will send the article to AFD for a wider debate. Hope this helps. Cnwb 23:55, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

lol =)

you have quite a lot of self-esteem (evidence is in ypur user page). lol. no offense though. nice user page, btw. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.109.222.166 (talk)

Umm. Thanks. I think. Cnwb 04:29, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cnwb, I listed your speedy deletion of Vaginafaceitis on DRV. I know it was a dumb article and hoax, but unfortunately we don't have a speedy deletion criterion for that. G1 is only for "incoherent" articles, which (again, unfortunately) Vaginafaceitis is not. =( I thought I should let you know so you can weigh in on the DRV discussion. Thanks!

Just Hi

The article 'Camperdown' which you started had degenerated into nonsense so I did a total rewrite. Thanks for your help on other things.Geoffrey Wickham 06:22, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

I was about to prod this article for not living up to the usual notability guidelines for band inclusion, until I saw it was you that started the stub. Therefore, I have refrained from doing so due to your esteemed reputation on the 'pedia. However, when you get a chance, can you expand the article a bit. They sound kind of cool and I'd like to know more. Cheers. youngamerican (talk) 02:19, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Very interesting article. May I ask where you found info? Did William Drake name it? I had no idea that a settlement existed. As Kororoit Ck is my one of my fav Melbourne secrets would love to know. Cheers. Lentisco 05:32, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Article 'Telectronics'

Yes, the Discussion page is a "mess". The party declines to register, dos not sign his posts and continually changes his IP address. Under these circumstances could Arbitration achieve anything ? A 'without predjudice' opinion would be appreciated. Apologies, I forgot to log on first.Geoffrey Wickham --139.168.53.159 23:50, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Try loggin in and then leaving a message. There is no proof that you are in fact Geoffrey Wickham. That Telectronics article is such a hornet-nest, I wouldn't be surprised if people are forging signatures. Cnwb 23:55, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
