Can you update the Vandalproof page please? Many Thanks Universal Hero 19:08, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
I know that you are just doing what you think is right, and I would have done the same. However, I have shed some light on the subject that might intrest you. WP:ANI see here VP abuse Purgatory Fubar Converse or Snafu 22:56, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
This mess was Archived and no further comments have been made. So I guess it's up to you. Purgatory Fubar Converse or Snafu 22:44, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the update. As per vandalproof policy, if any user of this tool is legitimately blocked for any reason (especially for vandalism or violation of 3RR) and it is reported to a moderator, he/she will no longer be allowed to use VandalProof. User Purgatory Fubar was blocked here [1] and a request to be unblocked was furthermore declined here [2]. User Purgatory Fubar is now being investigated for possible evasion of the block via sockpuppetry [3]. 86.27.59.243 22:58, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Re: your denial of vandalproof access to User:Complex (de).
Please read the report on his recent activities that he published on dewiki:
I have no idea about what you were thinking at the time, but in that context, all I can say is: Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Thank you for providing us with another happy WP:VF user. (as well as his fine free advertising for our wonderful tool) O:-)

Heya Alex. I've recently set up a new server for amidaniel.com, and as a result, _a lot_ was lost. It's been a rather frustrating process, but I'm slowly getting things up and running again. phpCollab is momentarily down, and while I do believe I'll reinstall it, I am not sure if I will be able to recover all the data from the old install. I'm primarily writing to make sure that you have a back up of the 1.36 source (and all derivations thereof); I definitely have backups of the 1.35 and earlier source, but I am not sure about 1.36. In related news, I've set up some mailing lists, one explicitly for VP devs, at http://amidaniel.com/mailmain/listinfo , please take some time to subscribe when you get the chance. I also installed an interesting bit of software called BUGS, which I installed at http://amidaniel.com/bugs/ that I was hoping you could take a look at it and see what you think; it's sort of like an easier-to-use bugzilla. Anyway, if you could please pass this info along to the other devs it would be much appreciated. Thanks. AmiDaniel ( talk) 20:31, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

I tried signing on to VP and it said User list is corrupt. Please have a moderator fix it WikiMan53 (talk) (click here) 15:20, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
PS: Respond on MY talk WikiMan53 (talk) (click here)
If you are experiencing a 'User list is corrupt' message, it is because you are not running the latest version of the software.
You should download the latest version (1.35) and ensure you are approved to use it.
Good luck with the vandal fighting! Ale_Jrb talk 15:26, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
Hello. I recently added my name to the list of candidates waiting for approval to use VandalProof, but I wasn't approved. I have more than 250 edits, so is there something that I can do to beef up my "Wikipedia Resume" so that my request will pass next time? Thanks, SU Linguist 15:55, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
Dear Ale jrb,
Thank you for applying for NPWatcher! You've been approved to use it. Before you run the program, please check the changelog on the application page to see if there is a newer release (or just add the main page ( here) to your watchlist).

Special note to spamlist users: Apologies for the formatting issues in previous issues. This only recently became a problem due to a change in HTML Tidy; however, I am to blame on this issue. Sorry, and all messages from this one forward should be fine (I hope!) -Ral315

Hi, and welcome to the Novels WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to fiction books often referred to as "Novels".
A few features that you might find helpful:
There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the members, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/ (Desk) 08:31, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for your support in my recent RfA, it is much appreciated. I have been promoted. J Milburn 16:54, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
This user was declined acceptance three times before you approved, and two of those declines were within 5 days of your approval. While I don't want to remove approval I would like to make sure that you were aware of that before you had approved. Prodego talk 19:42, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
I figured that I would be rejected. I figured that I would give see if it were possible even with fewer than 250. I plan to reapply after coming up with 250 edits it just takes a while fitting edits in with homework. - Vcelloho 19:27, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
User:AmiDaniel/VP/Approval Thanks, Wǐkǐɧérṃǐť (Talk) (Contributions) 22:59, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm so excited! I've been anxiously waiting for a response. Thank you for approving me! I'll download it immediately. - hmwith talk 21:31, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Hi, and thanks for your message. I have already download 1.36, but unfortunately am unable to log in. The message I receive in the "privileges" box is "no privileges found". Clicking the "verify authorization" button seems not to have any effect. -- Rrburke( talk) 21:47, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Hello, probably "none of my business", but I saw that you denied access to VP for this user and welcomed them to try again soon. In case you are not aware, I would like to point out that the user has been revoked from using WP:AWB on two occasions for specific misuse of that tool. While the user did not act maliciously, they were judged to be using the tool inappropriately by myself and at least 2 admins/mods. I know that the capabilities and standards for these two tools are different, but I consider them to be 2 of the most powerful tools available for non-admins, and both can create great harm if not used properly. Obviously, you should decide as you see fit, if and when they reapply for VP, but I did want you to at least be aware of this additional item. Respectfully. -- After Midnight 0001 01:00, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
i was denied because i was blocked. It's okay it's no offense taken it happens on wikipedia. A new user signs up 5 different accounts and they all go yell at one administrator who blocked me. I can handle it :)
CINEGroup 16:26, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
It was in error. I can sit here and type it out for the next 4 hours so it would be understandable, but it's something I could voice tell in 5 minutes and any competent person could see it clearly. CINEGroup 16:41, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
I can't account for the fact that wikipedia has groups that hang together. They claim I gave a user 3rr rule 4 times on his page. If you'll look, you will see I NEVER gave him any 3rr. But I was blocked before I could tell them that. And just like you, they say the same thing "Oh well if so and so blocked you, it must be fine"
Maybe look into the actual evidence. So many things get lost on wikipedia because of the editing, but I never gave the person a 3rr not even once, which is what I was blocked for. CINEGroup 16:49, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
[5] Not that it matters to you now, you've already made your decision CINEGroup 16:50, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the authorization. And BTW, may I completely rip-off your user page design :)? It looks really cool, and I would like to use something similar for my page, only with different colors. Will give you credit on the page for creating the design.
So? Pretty please? -- xompanthy 22:43, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the add but I'm having a problem. I manage to log in fine on the Vandalproof connect box, but I once I click the Verify Authorisation, nothing happens. It's not just that I'm getting a message that says I'm not on the list it's just that the box stays as it is with the username and privileges box staying greyed out with no changes. I've left this for a few minutes and it dosen't make a difference. Can you help at all? BigHairRef | Talk 15:48, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
It is minor edits that break it, so technically, you didn't break it, MichaelBillington did. ;) Anyway, fixed. Prodego talk 14:42, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

i'm sorry i was trying to edit that because their was something incorrect about one of the paragraphs. they were talking about mexicans and i didn't see any links to it. the thing about the mexicans was totally wrong being half mexican myself. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.231.243.6 ( talk) 08:03, 16 February 2007 (UTC).
ok thank you and sorry again. :)
I noticed that you told somebody who was having a problem reporting IP addresses on the AIV page to download the binary again. Does that just mean to redownload the program because I am having that saghuyhyuiljkmme problem? Thanks a lot. Wikipediarul e s 2221 01:28, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

I may not be a wipipedia fanatic or anything, but, i do know about saudi arabia, i am arab so i should know. maybe you haven't done enough research but i know for a fact i am correct. i am actually just taking a year off from school and i am IN saudi arabia right now. Have you ever even been there to correct me like this? sorry, but its true that i'm right. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.169.129.253 ( talk) 22:49, 25 February 2007 (UTC).

Northorpe is actually on the power grid and never had a goat farm. someone has put a prank on the site. it you could change it to say northorpe has is on the power grid and delete the goat farm, that would be nice and true, just google northorpe uk and u will see a small village where i live which has power and no goats
I recently was looking something up on wikipedia and noticed there was a "new messages" link. I opened it up and was surprised to find that there were warnings against the IP i am sending this from. this ip is from a school and is shared between 600+ high school students everyday! if you want to make sure there is no vandalism in the future, i suggest you permblock this ip from editing.
Thanks 64.136.131.36 21:58, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
I checked for some new pages I had done recently and could not find them. I then found out that it could take 4-6 weeks before the search engine is updated so it could be into October before they appear. I hope to complete most of these pages in the next few weeks, editing the existing pages I had started (research does take time) so they'd be on show immediately instead of waiting so long for them. If the pages are deleted I trust it will be OK to do them again when I am ready? Neufen01.

I have read the five pillars of wisdom and have to admit to not being a lot wiser. I am creating facts and information which I think will be helpful to potentially millions of comic and pulp collectors worldwide now and in time to come. I did try to run before I could walk here as articles took much longer than I thought they would and am still learning. Neufen01 18:14, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
I now have a more realistic schedule on articles though the Blue Ribbon article I am doing is a bit of a nightmare on detail so I rest from it by writing elsewhere. I am now generally finishing (other) articles I write on the same day. Neufen01 18:34, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Please look at my edit carefully. I didn't add any nonsense to the page on the Avatar episode of the The Serpent's Pass. I did change some of the wording and fixed the spelling, but overall, I did not vastly change the content. 24.84.0.4 18:46, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Can you help? I have a problem with a user who is reversing my edits. I am new to wiki, but I know my information is accurate, yet he keeps reverting because he doesn't seem to want to admit he is wrong. 82.153.175.76 19:01, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
which quotes "October 24th - A new Service has popped up on Score Ayr. KISS is running at 128 kbit/s. The Service Vibe FM has ceased."
I did not vandalise, they are promoting that singer over the others- that's not allowed. Advertising is NOT allowed, what I wrote was truth.
You made a mistake I did not vanadalise a page, they were advertising her. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.168.7.7 ( talk • contribs)
Thank you for your contributions to Characters of The Keys to the Kingdom series. Unfourtantley, the information you added has already been removed several times from the page due to the fact that it is speculation. Trust me, you aren't the first one with good intentions to add the info that you added. We are just trying to keep any unsourced speculation out of that page. If you find a source that gives the same or relatively same presumptions, such as a literary magazine, you are welcome to add it. Until then, please refrain from adding the information on the remaining Morrow Days' sin's. Thanks again. -- kralahome 01:43, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
I am a student of Edward Steinberg's, and am upset that my changes were considered vandalistic. I did reword some sentences to make them mildly humorous, but it was in good faith and it is the prerogative of posterity to rewrite history. Another quote from Steinberg. The changes in quotes are accurate, omitted from the first versions of the site precisely for fear of this backlash, but the truth must find a way to emerge.
Many thanks,
Julian Izzo.
