Nice to see you back

Nice to see you back, though I don't think you remember me or how I know you :) Chamal ^Talk ± 15:48, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

I do remember you, I gave you rollback. :) It's nice to see somebody using it responsibly. Caulde 15:50, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Wanted to say welcome back mate. Revamped the account with new priorities and a name change I see? Wisdom89 _{(T / ^C)} 23:18, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Yes, certainly. Thanks. Caulde 17:31, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Omg, you sneaky little thief. Why didn't you tell me you're back? Anyways, welcome back. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 16:29, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank for the "raw signature" tip! Eleos^Prime 19:20, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

By the way, do you happen to see anything wrong with the code on my talk page which would prevent it from automatically archiving? just Eleos 16:43, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Never mind, I think it is a minthreads issue. Thanks! just Eleos 19:03, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

It must be the bot, mine hasn't been archiving either. Caulde 16:28, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

You placed a comment asking to remind you. Since the RFCU was recently confirmed, and the sock was indef blocked, I'm just nudging you before the SSP case gets archived. Yngvarr (t) (c) 11:26, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your involvement in helping us resolve our conflict at Los Angeles International Airport. Please feel free to join in the discussion if you have any productive input as I am trying to lead us to a consensus so we can resolve the issue as quickly and in as friendly a fashion as possible. 96.5.66.240 (talk) 20:51, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry that the discussion ended without your involvement; perhaps we could re-initiate it sometime and prove once-and-for-all with sources (primary or secondary). Caulde 12:00, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

My RfA

Thank you for supporting me in my RfA, which passed with a count of (154/3/2). I appreciate the community's trust in me, and I will do my best to be sure it won't regret handing me the mop. I am honored by your trust and your support. Again, thank you. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 18:11, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Well done! Caulde 16:46, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

removing posts from an RfA

It's not ok to just remove non-vandalism comments from an RfA, the posts should be moved to the RfA talk page. The thing that may require admin attention is the fact that Promethean forced me to post that issue at AN by removing my inquiry from his talk page as "trolling". What's more, following that, he has now accused me of "drama mongering" at the AN thread. He should at least be told to be much more careful in the future and to respond to good-faithed and justified inquiries not by removing them as "trolling". Everyme 15:35, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, a comment was in the process of being saved. Caulde 15:35, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind things like this. Everyme 16:05, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

I am assessing. Caulde 16:24, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Oh well, seems resolved as far as I'm concerned. I'm just glad that it's not just me. Everyme 18:47, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Im reconsidering not backing down on this. Due to the trolling edit summery being much of the argument here it is [1]. Telling me how i should have my userspages setup when i'm most happy with it, imho is trolling. After my Undo of his notice then he posted AN notice, coupled with another attempt [2]. My drama mongering statement was directed at the thread itself as AN or ANI threads have a tendency to grow drama.   «l| Ψrometheăn ™|l»  (talk) 03:02, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunately, that's often true. But it's not a systematic problem but rather one of the participants, or the way some participate. I've actually seen a few threads were things got resolved in a very cooperative and efficient way. Everyme 03:41, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

• On a completely unrelated note, Caulde, I didn't at first realise that you had your account renamed. And how does the magic with the "Just some notes" thingie work? Everyme 03:41, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Yes, that's me. Hacking into your wikipedia, as Prom so eloquently puts it below. Its a mediawiki code thingy-majig. I'll give the heads up if you reply. Caulde 15:29, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

• Me too would love to know how that works, has u been hackin my wikipedia?   «l| Ψrometheăn ™|l»  (talk) 03:58, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
• Ok, tell us? Or is it soopersekret? Everyme 17:47, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Do a template for it, and I'll add it to your talkpage preload. Caulde 17:51, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Does it have to be in template space, or can it be a subpage of my userspace? Everyme 18:21, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

User:Everyme/s Everyme 18:26, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! But let me get this straight: All it takes is a user talk subpage /Editnotice ? Seems I gotta spend a lot more time around meta and siphon off more of such gadgets, if just for the heck of it. Everyme 18:35, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Incredible. This is so great. Maybe the templated RfA spam will finally end now! Everyme 19:03, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Is there really a precedent whereby a user can't get a third rename? Giggy (talk) 14:45, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Not really no, but it is generally 'accepted' from what I've been reading over the past few months as a clerk, here and there. Caulde 15:01, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

User:Be Black Hole Sun

He's being very uncooperative and pushy about his editing, I saw the note on his user page and I figured you should know about it. Zazaban (talk) 02:12, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

I endorse Zazaban's comments - please see for instance here and here. Ghmyrtle (talk) 09:31, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

I'll look over it; I need to familiarise myself with the context of the case and then of course the specifics, two diffs your provide above are just that. Caulde 15:31, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for eavesdropping but I thought alert should be given to another conversation about this editor. I have brought concerns about this user to the attention of admin East718.( conversation here ). Admin East718 is very familiar with BBHS and his checkered Wiki-history. I felt the possibility of a user with a long history of edit warring and block evasion having a drawer of sock accounts at his fingertips was, sooner or later, going to be a concern. BBHS 'fessed up to the use of the numerous accounts and I can AGF that his claim that it was simply forgetting to log out of one language Wiki into EN-Wiki under the name he is known by here. But it isn't just one account it is at least 2 (along with numerous anon IP edits) and the fact that he seems to switch from one to another for different purposes while on English Wikipedia... the AGF is extremely thin. This may not bear weight on this discussion. But I felt you should know about the other ongoing discussion as both are current... and about the same subject. Have a nice day! The Real Libs-speak politely 17:51, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Dude what would the point of having two user pages and i'm user Superunknown on norwegian wiki and Fell on Black Days on simple, your getting paranoid. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 20:52, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

that I've written/expanded four DYKs? Before making this comment, you should've checked my talkpage. I opposed Gladys j cortez's RfA because she has no FA or GA or DYK. Have a nice day! AdjustShift (talk) 19:12, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

My screen was on the blink when I went on your talk page, and usually people put their DYKs on the userpage, so I assumed that you hadn't. Caulde 19:13, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

In all honesty, I am poor with Portuguese despite going to Portugal a few years ago. I am still studying Spanish so that's why I spoke that instead. Caulde 08:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Renames

Can you check the rename instructions and make sure they say:

1. to remove CURRENT and NEW from the template
2. to put the first letter of both your current and requested name in upper case...because if they don't it causes problems with the rename process

Re: Feminism portal

No problem. Too bad Gimmetrow took down the bot's function over FPO, otherwise our job would have been much easier. OhanaUnited^{Talk page}

Sorry to break this news to you. It's actually because of you (see User talk:Caulde/Archive/26#Closing featured portals nomination. You duplicated the task of the bot so the bot owner (Gimmetrow) has to go back and clean up the mess. He's probably pissed for loss productivity and removed the function after that incident. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 17:59, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

I was just wondering, can you please provide me with the template you use to display your accurate time counter (on your userpage)?

Hello Husond. What has changed since my last comment? Has there been more disruption or has community opinion changed (even more) for the worse? Regards, Caulde 13:05, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Basically Tocino continues in the same manner. In the last few weeks I've witnessed him attack users and repeatedly using article talk pages as a forum or soapbox for his political rantings. He's been asked a million times to stop such behavior, but to no effect. I have proposed his ban after noticing that even I, who rarely drop by at the talk page, was a _target of his attacks, simply for reporting the need to update the article. See here.
