Hey Man!

How come you keep changing my edits? I don't think you're being very responsible. Please respond to my message. Sbrown411

Well to start with vandlism that you have posted. You have attacked my talk and user pages several times.TheRanger 01:17, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Russian passport

Excuse me, but can you explain why you reverted what I removed in the topic of Russian passport? 70.55.134.14 01:06, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't revert what I did in the topic of Russian passport as there is no verified info provided by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Interior Affairs that those info you reverted is accurate. In order to avoid misleading, please don't revert what I removed, thanks! 70.55.134.14 01:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It was reverted because the summary lacked a reason for taking information off an article that is coman to all passport articles. There was also no talk about this on the article talk page. TheRanger 01:16, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Your edit to Acetic acid

Your recent edit to Acetic acid (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior. Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // AntiVandalBot 01:34, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is clearly a bot error as we were both working to clean up the same issue. Oh well Keep up the good work BOT and keep the Wikipedia as clean as we can. TheRanger 01:44, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

no vandalizing

I appreciate your assitance in preventing vandalism on wikipedia. I recieved a warning from you about vandalizing the charles dickens article. There appears to be some misunderstanding as i will not and ndo not valdalize wikipedia, but like you, am attempting to revert vandalism! I would appreciate you removing the warning! Or if you have more information how what I am doing is vandalism, I would appreciate it! Thanks! Chris Kreider - HFF 15:47, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that please accept my apologies. I saw the problem as soon as I pushed the wrong key it was an error on my part. In fact right after it posted I had removed the warning from your page. Thanks for your understanding. TheRanger 15:52, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

simultaneous revert

Removing: Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to October 4. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. ... simultaneous reverts - my confusion -- apologies-- Paleorthid 16:27, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh well they happen. keep up your good work on vandlism, the more on the fight the better. TheRanger 16:29, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

VP

Did you see to which version you reverted to? Be careful with VandalProof next time. Titoxd(?!?) 16:57, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I see what happened, however that was not what I tried to revert I think it was the result of simultaneous reverts. What was shoeing on my screen was the vandlsim being current version. Sorry about that please accept my apologies and thanks for joining the fight to remove vandlism. TheRanger 17:06, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I removed the content from the Shadowrun page and put it onto the main List of Shadowrun books. This was initially done but over time the list has creeped back onto the main page. All the other books are listed in this List subpage, so the novels should be as well. Ben W Bell talk 18:04, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I did see what you were doing and removed it in error. I have already changed it back and removed the warning left in error on your talk page. Keep up the good work! TheRanger 18:06, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Dear TheRanger,

Thanks for restoring the Queercore page to its pre-vandalism state. If I may make a request: the same person, 201.7.38.192, has also vandalised the page of the band Gay for Johnny Depp in a similar manner. If you could revert that as well, it would be much appreciated. Here's another problem, if you have time; someone has redirected the page for the band Fifth Column. They were hoping to distinguish between the band and the military manouver Fifth column, which wasn't nesessary, since the page for the military manouver was spelled with a small case 'c' in column. Now the band Fifth Column has been left with no pages linking to it, whereas it used to have more than 50. As well, this person has capitalized Band (as in Fifth Column (Band)), which as you probably know, is not used on Wikipedia, adding to the confusion. Any help would be much appreciated.

TheEmissary 19:51, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your your comments, it means a lot to hear from people other than vandals that are attacking my page. As for Gay for Johnny Depp I belive that I have fixed that one all the way now. As to the Fifth Column issue that is one I am looking into it is not something that I have worked with so I am reading up on the correct way to fix this problem.TheRanger 20:07, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: AfD for Bankstown Grammar

Hi, just commented on the AfD for Bankstown Grammar School.

This is an exclusive high school, and not a primary shcool. Pursey 02:56, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was going based on the listing as well as the name of the school. I am sure that these facts will come out as part of the RfD and maybe someone will work to update and inprove the article as a whole. Thanks for taking the time to get envolved. TheRanger 02:59, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, you've also recently listen Northholm Grammar School. Once again, (and mentioned clearly in the article this time) this is an Exclusive Private High School. Chances are, if it says Grammar School, it's a private high school. Pursey 04:45, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I see it was hard to tell from the artile that it was a high school, however that is coming out in the AfD at this time. Seems that other parts of the world use "Grammer School" as grade school were here it means private high school. That is the reason for the RfD process so issue like this can be resloved. Again thank you for getting being part of the process and working to build wikipedia. TheRanger 12:58, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If it becomes clear that an AfD nomination was a mistake, you can withdraw it. Similarly, you can withdraw an AfD nomination if an article is improved so much that your additional concerns no longer apply. You might consider doing so for Bankstown Grammar School and Northholm Grammar School. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 13:17, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have looked around and can not find anything listed as to how to withdraw the a AfD. Could you point me in the right direction for this process. Thanks for your help. TheRanger 13:44, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Just return to the AfD article, stroke out the comments that you wish to withdraw (by putting <<s> at the beginning and </s> at the end, and add a comment, "I have changed my mind about this article and I now think that the article should be kept. I would like to withdraw my nomination." --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 04:22, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your help, I have taken care of the issue and ask that the AfD be withdrawed.TheRanger 04:57, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Adventure Quest

I (User_talk:24.239.66.162) was recently sent a warning for editing the Adventure Quest entry mid-process. I'd been working on a major re-orgization of the crticism section to elimiate unsited sources and redundency inside of it. The edit summery was going to be posted when I had finished the work, but was saving it on occasion to make sure my edits were validly coded(My wiki-experince is somewhat lacking.) Was there some rule I was violating by working first and summerizing once I knew what needed to be changed, or is this a misunderstanding? I'm just trying to avoid future problems.

Well the problem that comes up is when some one is doing recent change patrol for vandlism it is hard to tell what the reason for the large removal of text is with out the summary. So we have to go on what it looks like. A simple few words would make things easy for someone to see at a qwickly. Thanks for helping build Wikipedia with your hard work.

Your edit to Porno

Your recent edit to Porno (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior. Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // AntiVandalBot 14:52, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks to be the result of simultaneous reverts we were both after the same problem.TheRanger 14:56, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And the VandalProof override that prevents people from warning the bot isn't in yet... yay :) -- Tawker 16:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I noticed you left a {{test}} template regarding Scientific Classification on User:AntiVandalBot's talk page. I also noticed that you reverted AntiVandalBot's edit to the previous version of the article using VandalProof.

I think you are confused. 1. AntiVandalBot is not human. It is a program (a Robot if you will, hence the Bot at the end) that aims to detect and remove vandalism to Wikipedia. There are several of these things around. 2. Looking at the history of Scientific Classification, it seems that there was an article there and User:207.63.107.68 deleted all the text and replaced it with profanity [1]. User:165.91.116.105 then came along and removed the profanity leaving a blank page [2]. AntiVandalBot considers page blanking vandalism, but isn't smart enough to go back two revisions, so reverted the article back to the vandalised one [3]. You came along and reverted AntiVandalBot back to the blank article [4] and warned AntiVandalBot for vandalism. I fixed the article [5].

When using VandalProof, please make sure that you are reverting to a clean, unvandalised version. Do not revert to a blank page, and do not accuse bots of vandalism. Do, however let the Bot's owner know on the bot's talk page that the bot made an error. Thanks. ~ ONUnicorn (Talk / Contribs) 16:48, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your point is noted, just as the bot makes error I as a human do as well. It is my understanding that this issue is also being by the programers with VP. Thank your direction in this issue. TheRanger 17:17, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes VP is just wrong :)

Hi, could you please remove the test1 template you put on my page? I was reverting vandalism too ;) To be Honest, I almost warned an other RC patroller on that one too :) -- lucasbfr talk 17:59, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's gone now. Not sure what caused that but it was not the way I had it set to revert something must have gone wrong well do the auto post. Oh well, thanks for letting me know and keep up the good work. TheRanger 18:05, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

University of Alabama problem

On the University of Alabama article there is a recurring problem with people posting alleged controversies with the SGA. None of this stuff that is alleged can be proven, it is pure conjecture and has no place in a factual article. This type of thing has no place on an article about our University. If whoever is doing this wants it up, then they should put up this in a seperate article.

Thank you for informing me of this problem, I'll mark it in my watch list and keep an eye on it. Keep up the good work keeping wikipedia strong. TheRanger 23:20, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Sysonby

I'm removing articles written by me which have received criticism (but not anything in them that might have been contributed by others). I've lost the enthusiasm I came here with. It's my fault. I must not have understood wiki very well. My articles are not written as wiki wishes them to be written, but this is how I write. If I don't remove them, or changed them so much they lose all color and interest, I'll just keep geting tagged with "tone." The articles are still there. Others can go in and do as they wish with them. What is it wiki feels a proper reason for removing an article that is tagged for "tone"? ..23:49, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to hear that you feel that way about editing on wikipedia. I would say don't take other editors questions and concerns personaly it is normally all done with the intent of making the whole project better. Hopefully you will come back and join us soon.

Your comment on my talk page

I was surprised to see your comment on my talk page advising me that you reversed my revert on Krav Maga and insinuating I don't know the rules of Wikipedia. If you'd glanced over the history of the page, you would have seen that I've been struggling to counter an ongoing campaign of vandalism by a group of people who insist on posting commercial, inappropriate material on this page. I've reported them and they've received bans but they just keep coming back. If you'd like to use your administrative powers to make Wikipedia better, how about giving me a hand instead of reverting my edits and telling me to go play in the sandbox? - Cheers, Perseverantia 21:54, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I'd appreciate it very much if you would restore the page to my last edits, since the page now contains the same material I was trying to remove. Perseverantia 21:57, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry your effort to inprove the article were reverted. The reason I see looking into this issue was that your edit removed a large section of text with no edit summary to let others including recent change patrolers a reason why it was done. In fact your edit was marked as being "minor" which it clearly was not. Based on that information your edit look to be vandlism so I reverted it. Your help keeping the point of view of the article is great and we are glad to have the help, however with out the summaries filled in and the proper use of the minor edit but your works look like a vandlism trick. Again I am sorry it was reverted in is in no means a personal attack. TheRanger 22:09, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks very much for the clarification, and I can see where the confusion arose. After having reverted so many times to try to deal with the vandalism, I guess I just got sloppy. I will make a concerted effort to properly annotate my edits to avoid a future misunderstanding. I appreciate you responding to this quickly. My best, Perseverantia 22:38, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to do so, please feel free to delete this communication once you read it. Perseverantia 22:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I saw you reverted some changes I did. Seeing the most recent comment, I realized it may had been a mistake to not write the why. Anyway, I think that it isn't vandalism. Especially in the fact that I added tags, changed the rooster of the team into a template, and corrected some grammar and spelling mistakes. I erased the following complete sections:

  * 2.2 March 24, 1996
  * 2.3 Clasico 6-3
  * 2.4 DAY 4

Because they are better explained, and in a more neutral way in the Clásico Regiomontano article. "The Rivalry" section was done a cleanup by me, and "The Future" was completely erased as there is no source information about it, and in fact, there are recognized sources denying information of that section. I explained forehand my reasons of my cleanup in the article talk page.

Dreyesbo 03:23, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, that looks great, the problem I had was the large removal of sections and no summary edit, sorry I didn't see it in the talk section. This was the result of recent change patrol and keeping up with a busy time of vandlism attacks. I'll remove the warning and thanks for your help building wikipeida. TheRanger 03:28, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks to you for pointing my mistakes. I'll make sure to write the summary edit in further edits ;)

Vandalized Again!

Hello TheRanger,

Once again, your help is needed! The Queercore page has been vandalised and needs to be reverted. Thanks in advance, and thanks for your assistance in the past.

TheEmissary 07:01, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I think I got it back to being correct now. I will keep an eye on this page to watch for new problems. Again if something comes up feel free to let me know and I'll do what I can. Thanks. TheRanger 15:45, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please revert back to the place I was at

wvbailey here re Counter machine:Reference model: I was in the middle of a movement of stuff around the page and you reverted me way back to Kraus, whom I'm trying to fix. Please revert it back. BTW this is quite upsetting. Thanks, wvbaileyWvbailey 21:12, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry you were upset by the reverts to this article. The reason the revert was done was for the large removal of text from the page with no edit summary or note on the talk page. After I reviewed the changes I found no reason that the information would need to be removed, so well doing a recent change patrol it was reverted. The goal of the revert is to prevent vandlism and futher the good of the wikipedia as a whole. I'll look into seeing what can be done to revert any changes made if needed. Thanks for your understanding in this issue. TheRanger 21:23, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I kind of figured this out -- I was doing a bunch of edits fast just to move things about. I reverted it back myself and did some more work. I understand why this happened. Thanks for the quick response. wvbaileyWvbailey

Your warning

I sure hope VP gets fixed soon. Second vandalism warning I've gotten today. First was on an article I've never touched, and now you leave me a note that says I removed content from an article I added a {db-web} tag to. Fan-1967 19:06, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the error. When I went to remove the warning from your page I saw you took care of it. Thanks for your help building wikipedia. TheRanger 19:12, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Mountain Wreath

I think the author of "The Mountain Wreath" article is seriously prejudiced in this matter. The play in question is highly controversial, and I believe that an encyclopedia entry should reflect this. Proclaiming The Mountain Wreath to be about faith in humanity and goodness is a highly interpretative stance. Many would argue that the play is nothing but nationalist progaganda along the lines of Mein Kampf. The Serbs perpetrated genocide, let's not forget that fact, and this play was a contributing factor. I am personally offended at the slant of this article, and would appreciate it if the author attempted to be fair and unbaised, perhaps explaing historical context, and a summary of the play, rather than interpreting themes and providing judgement on the authors meaning.


My edits were done fairly and objectively, I do not think the article should be reverted. In fact, this is such a controversial topic, I think edits should be locked until reviewed by Wiki.

You present a strong case as to why you edits were done, however at the time you made your edits you left no edit summary or note on the article talk page so I had no idea why you deleted a large amounts of text. If you get an account to do your editing with and leave edit an edit summary of what you are editing others would know why things are being done. A big problem on wikipedia is vandalism and I am sorry to say that is what I thought you edit was well doing a recent change patrol. Sorry for the problems the revert caused.

Upcoming template changes

Hi, I've just noticed that you recently left a templated userpage message. I'm just bringing to your attention that the format and context of these templates will be shortly changing. It is recommended that you visit WikiProject user warnings and harmonisation discussion pages to find out how these changes could affect the templates you use. We also would appreciate any insights or thoughts you may have on the subject. Thanks for your understanding. Best regards Khukri (talk . contribs) 14:59, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have been following your project and am aware that you are looking at how the changes would affect tools like vandal proof. I feel that is very inportant as the number of recent change patrolers that use some sort of tool in the process. Thanks for your notice I will keep an eye on the project as I have in the past. TheRanger 16:43, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Not sure why you reverted my anonymous edit to the Konami code page. That stuff is the biggest, most useless collection of trivia on the Wiki, and there are clear arguments on the talk page for removing the whole section. Perhaps you can join the discussion instead of just blindly reverting? --Measure 20:15, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your anonymous edit was not blindly reverted by any means. I was doing a recent change patrol and your edit had no edit summary. Well reveiwing the your change I had nothing to go up but the fact it looked to be page blanking which is often the case with anonymous edit that lack any futher information. Sorry your edit was one that was not vandlism and did get reverted. TheRanger 20:19, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category: Christian Arab Singers

I received a message from you saying that I am removing content from the category Christian Arab Singers. Actually I am the one who created the category. I am not removing content but removing vandalism. Someone is constantly adding nonsense and random text to cause the deletion of the page. I mean some anti-christian lying idiot. Hadoken2000 20:19, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that you are the one who created the category and how you could feel that it is your category. However, on wikipedia all content is every ones content and everyone is able to add to and edit everything. The message I left was in regards to you removing a tag of a notice of "Categories for Discussion" which is a process by which the community decides if the article meets wikipedia standards and should be kept or if it does not and it should be deleted. As the notice states the tag must be left on the page and its removal is considered vandalism. That being said I would urge you to participate in the Categories for Discussion stating why you feel it meets the standards to keep, however please do not remove the tag. Hope this helps and thank you for being part of wikipedia. TheRanger 18:33, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a judgement call, but I'd usually WP:AGF and go with {{test1a}} for a first edit; it's possible that it was a simple slip of the fingers. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 02:50, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Change to Western

Hello. I noticed that on October 28 you edited the Western article so that it is no longer a disambiguation page, but one on a specific company. May I ask why? To me, it makes more sense as a disambig page. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 21:37, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In looking into this, I have found that my edits to the page Western were done to revert changes by a user that had been block User:Policyowner who had vandalised that and other pages. For some reason in the edit history it no longer shows the edits make by that user, however I have no postion on the disambiguation of the page, feel free to bring your concern to the pages talk page or make the changes as you see fit.

Gotcha, thanks for the response! --cholmes75 (chit chat) 22:31, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

please don't undo my edit

I hope this reaches you, I'm relatively new to wikipedia and am not sure if this is the right place to respond to your message. I posted a longer response on what i guess is my user page (the one where your message appeared saying you'd reverted my edits), but in a nutshell my edits were not vandalism.

the text I removed is duplicate text that is already covered in the article on anarcho-capitalism and is only tangentially related to "American Anarchism" as a whole since it represents one specific debate within anarcho-capitalism - not a debate within american anarchism as such. Accordingly it was an effort to bring the American Anarchism page into line with the other pages on Anarchism that summarize related points and then point the user to a full article on those points for more detail, rather then exploring every debate on every point in every article.

please don't revert my changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.143.65.151 (talk)


The revert was done because your edit lacked a summary and I was unable to tell why you were deleted such a large protion of the article.

Ranger..thanks for the heads up. I didn't mean to delete the whole section but rather paste a new one I added in, but I was in a rush and messed up. I stand by my first edit in the lead sentence, as it was an inacurate representation of his title. I added supporting citations for everything cited in the headlines section i added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.68.154.168 (talk)

About your reverting of my edits to Digimon Savers

I was attempting to better merge the pages of Digimon Savers and List of Digimon Savers characters and concepts. You set my entire attempt backwards when I wasn't fully completed yet, and now I've lost almost all of it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Razorsaw (talkcontribs)

Sorry for the problem. Looks as if during a recent change patrol it was reverted likely due to large removal of text with out a clear edit summary. I'll look at it and do what I can to restore your edits if possible. Thanks for your help building wikipedia sorry our wires got crossed. TheRanger 04:12, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I'd rather I put it behind me for the rest of the night, and leave it as is. I've lost my focus and I'm not sure I could continue the project tonight. --Razorsaw 04:20, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I understand again sorry that it got reverted, I removed the warning from your talk page as it clearly was not needed. keep up the good work. TheRanger 04:23, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re mothers and various daily products :)

Some how it looks like we were both reverting the same edit, not sure how it came out as it did however I was trying to fix the same problem. Working with a new program to do recent change patrols so I'll keep an eye on it. TheRanger 19:45, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I see you actually warned me!! (another user reverted it so I missed it completely). Yikes, you should have received an edit conflict you'd think? Do you use VP/VS or VF or a script...
Sorry about the warning (tho you did add YOUR MOMMA IS PHAT LIKE CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE lol) - well looking thru your contribs this is the least I can do: Glen 21:20, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
A good ol' Kiwi Pav!

I, Glen give you TheRanger this delicious traditional Kiwi Pavlova for the same reasons per the barnstar above! Just a bloody legend (who apparently thinks cheese is quite fatty lol)

Glen 21:20, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Wow thanks for the Pavlova it's great! As for the the tool I was using ws VP 2.01 just started using so I'll have to see if it comes up again. TheRanger 21:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clydebank

What was wrong with my edit to Clydebank?

I felt the info on the Singer Corporation was interesting a necessary

Sorry my error, I saw the removal of the Employment section and without a summary note as to the edit, I did not see you moved it to another section of the article. I have changed the edit back to the way you had it. Thanks for letting me know and your help building wikipedia. TheRanger 19:53, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Thanks for reverting vandalism on my user page! Chris Kreider 19:57, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem just didn't look good with the vandalism. TheRanger 21:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your warning to 165.95.7.15

You may need to make some adjustment to VP2; you left a warning message for 165.95.7.15 about editing the Sandbox. I thought that is what the Sandbox is for. --Gerry Ashton 22:07, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow some thing is going wrong with that edit and warning. Thanks for pointing it out. TheRanger 22:10, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You said it was the sandbox. I was playing around. Sorry and how the hell did you track me down. You have a tracker on your computer?

Ok after your comment I looked into the issue. You were revert in your sandbox due to Wikipedia:No personal attacks just because it is a sandbox you are not allowed to post that type attack or any attacks. TheRanger 23:48, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
