You have just declined to block user 208.217.164.134, because user "hasn't edited in 4 hours". I understand where you are coming from on that point, but the fact is this person has vandalized the same article by deleting the same referenced fact 6 times. When is enough enough? The user was recently blocked for 48hrs, and yet there they were today, making the SAME edit. -Fall Of Darkness (talk) 03:23, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Useight, I found you on the "adopters looking for adoptees list". I've registered my account only recently. I have one previous adopter but I think he's kinda busy right now. What do you say? I picked you because you are an admin and you seem like a young guy who knows his way around. —Picardin (talk) 01:54, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

Useight, I've just added an adopter box for you on my page! Ok, first thing I want to change, but I don't know how to, is the default wiki search result for the string "fuego en la sangre". It should take the user to Fuego En La Sangre, not to Fuego en la sangre!!! If you don't believe me, just try a Google search for "fuego en la sangre" and see what the very first result is! The mexican soap opera is just soooo popular right now, you wouldn't believe it. The argetine film, on the other hand, is a pretty obscure reference (again, just look at Google results). Wikipedia should return a page that is relevant to the user, and I bet 99% of people searching for the string want the mexican soap page. —Picardin (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 00:50, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, another editor and I are having a dispute at the article Kanto (Pokémon) about whether or not this should be added to the article. Basically, the other editor wants to add information about a truck that appeared once in the game, while I believe this is entirely nonnotable and does not warrant inclusion in the article. We are trying to reach consensus on Talk:Kanto (Pokémon)#S.S. Anne Port Easter Egg and User talk:Artichoker#I never said it did held one, i said that was the old rumor. Whenever I try to revert back to the original version while we are discussing the matter, the other editor reverts back. What are your thoughts on this matter? Thanks. Artichoker^[talk] 20:30, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

I would just like to point out that this (the last two paragraphs that were added in the revision) is also part of the content dispute, so should that be commented as well? Also, thank you for sorting this out. Now I shall wait for Yami's reply, and we can hopefully begin some meaningful discussion. Artichoker^[talk] 21:12, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

I would like to note that User talk:JeremyMcCracken found nothing wrong with my info, he even fixed the image i added, and stated that Artichoker seemed to be the only one against my information. I would also like to note that JeremyMcCracken being a third option editor or what ever the title should show that if there really was a problem with the info, how i added it, or the references or citation then he would have fixed it. It should also be noted that the truck appears in 4-5 games ( i still not 100% sure on yellow) and does not just appear once.Yami (talk) 22:32, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that only one person is against your information is not a valid argument. Like I have said before, we do not vote on Wikipedia (although for the record, there is more than one person that disagrees with you.) And the fact that one editor found nothing wrong with your information does not mean that it should be included. Artichoker^[talk] 22:47, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I only know two people agaisnt me and Jeremy is with me from what I saw. now lets not argue on this tlak page, we'll let Useigh decide the issueYami (talk) 23:09, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I want to set the record on this matter straight right here. this started because Artichoke thinks he has the right to deem my contribution as non notable and kept saying it was speculation and repeatedly removed my contribution.

He/she is trying to act like the police on the Kanto (pokemon) article and I feel he made personal attacks against me as his edit summaries will show. This is not about rather the truck exist this is about him not thinking something i added to the article is notable.

My contributions shouldn't be taken down just because he doesn't want to try and help improve my contributions by fixing any errors. Why should the article have to suffer because Artichoke believes he/she has the right to say my contribution is speculation or non notable. I followed wikipedia's rules on referencing and citing my edit, and i made sure to provide enough places with Visual evidence of both video and image media. Who is to say rather the sites i refrence are creditable, the picture should be enough to show that the truck exist and who is to say that my Contributions both the truck and phantom PC doesn't belong Yami (talk) 01:56, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

The Edit Summaries in the history of the article Kanto (Pokémon)

He also just kept coming back and undoing anything i did to the article and called it speculation and non notable despite me giving sources and all that, he keeps trying to twist my words and has continued to ridicule me. I have read the article on referencing and all that and followed all the protocols on citing a source Yami (talk) 03:51, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is getting out of hand, mist places would call this a flame war not a edit war or dispute. The Hybrid is bias and tried to act like a mediator but has proven he is not someone who should be a mediator to anyside. He also seems to be trying to do his best to ridicule me and is not adding constructively to the discussion Yami (talk) 05:10, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If text on the truck isn't notable then can we at least keep the picture in the article with a caption about the port/dock and the truck maybe?

Nice little bit of trivia at the bottom that shows the truck and the programmers seem to have paid homage to the old mew claims with a new item in place of a mew. Yami (talk) 04:48, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

(In response to the above section) So, because you said I'm useless as a mediator, that makes me useless? Hmm, so, you're God then? Your logic perplexes me. You, who cite no policies to back you up, are the unbiased one, while Artichoker, TheChrisD and I, who do cite policies, are the biased ones. It isn't about who is biased and who isn't; it is about who is right and who is wrong. Our arguments have substance, and yours do not. It is as simple as that. We cite Wikipedia's policies, and you keep repeating the arguments that we have refuted.

Now, Useight has just said that the sources he listed are not reliable, yet you seem to have taken the impression that they are. This means one of two things: you don't read over our comments completely, or you fail to understand them. Which one is irrelevant. There are no reliable sources for the information. Useight just proved this. Rather than try to force me to action, why don't you walk the walk. Look for sources yourself, rather than trying to make me. I'm not going to waste my time trying to verify information that is irrelevant, even if notable. And for the record, Missigno is mentioned in another article because it has reliable third party sources discussing it. This thing does not, once again, as Useight just demonstrated.

Now, what would motivate us to compromise? A picture without relevant text is useless, and it certainly does not <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Lupin/navpop.css&action=raw&ctype=text/css&dontcountme=s">improve the article. None of what you propose would improve the article, as it is just trivia, not important information that necessitates documentation. If it were anything more than trivia, it would be listed in reliable thrid party sources. The Hybrid 04:59, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I said you were bias and this is just bordering on harassment now. Also if i made it into bulbapedia it must be notable. it also late here and yes he said the are not considered reliable but that doesn't mean they aren't reliable. Yami (talk) 05:04, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bulbapedia is a niche Wiki; it's standards for notability are far lower than Wikipedia's. Also, they fail WP:RS, which indeed does mean that they are not reliable. Now, if I'm harassing you, then report me. Maybe I'll get blocked, or be banned from participating in this discussion. Let someone unbiased judge my actions. I think you'll see that what I'm doing is participating in a dispute to defend Wikipedia's policies, while you are misinterpreting my and everyone else's actions. The Hybrid 05:09, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I don't have a problem with keeping the image in the article. It's a fairly long article that has a lot of text and few images. You might be able to get away with saying the image improves the article if the caption is something neutral, such as "A screenshot of Vermilion City" or something. Useight (talk) 05:25, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can I just add them to the article or do i have to get consensus so another dispute doesn't happen? Yami (talk) 05:58, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking of adding both and maybe use some humor with them Yami (talk) 06:03, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You would need consensus to add these images to the article. They way I see it, they are just more non-free images that add nothing useful to the article. And since they are non-free they shouldn't just be added for any old reason. Also, there should never be humor on an article. Artichoker^[talk] 13:39, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That was just the tag i used because i couldn't find the fair use tag late at night and i was not asking you i was asking him, please stay out of it Yami (talk) 15:59, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anything? Enigma ^message 05:13, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, talk has drifted from adding information of the truck onto the pictures of the truck. Yami has added the pictures to the article without establishing consensus twice already. The fact is that they are non-free images and violate WP:FUC. Discussion is (sort of) still going on at Talk:Kanto (Pokémon)#Compromise. Although by this point Yami's arguments are deteriorating into the same things that he has already stated multiple times. What are your thoughts on this matter. And I really do appreciate the time you have put in to mediate this. Thank you. Artichoker^[talk] 21:13, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to state that i have to repeat myself because everyone is getting lost because the talk page is so long.

Yami (talk) 17:27, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

one more thing, where is your opinion on the images because the talk page is a big maze of words Yami (talk) 17:28, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

I think he's more or less trying to use wikipolicies in his favor, and all the images on there are not free.Yami (talk) 18:40, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

Artichoker keeps saying that the text or at least how i want to write it helps convey the truck's notablity, but then argues that because the truck ins't mentioned the images shouldn't be added, but if how i want to write the text doesn't convey the information then an image would perfect for conveying information that could not otherwise be conveyed via text.

He is now resorting to arguing that it shouldn't be added because my writing style is that of a magazine. I don't think Artichoker has the article or anything else best interest in mind and only wants to cause trouble for me.

Everytime i think i'm getting somewhere with him he makes up another excuse Yami (talk) 19:57, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thank you for the notice. I do have some questions about WP:ANI, as I have never gone through this process before. So will there be a lengthy discussion about my behavior in which I will need to comment, or will an administrator just evaluate the situation and choose how to resolve it? Could there be any actions taken against me? Could there be any actions taken against the accuser (Yami)? I do not believe I have done anything wrong; one good-standing editor even thought I was cool-headed enough to deserve a barnstar.

I thank you once again for putting up with me and doing your best to answer my somewhat noobish questions. Thanks. Artichoker^[talk] 01:29, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My reply here

Thank you for answering my questions. However, it appears that now the page may be escalating into another edit war. As Yami continues to add back the controversial information without enough sourcing. I have stopped reverting for the time being, but is there any way to settle this matter once and for all, as he continues to ignore the proposals I bring up and just re-adds the information to the article without establishing consensus. Thanks. Artichoker^[talk] 02:55, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone through alot of trouble to try and please Artichoker and every time i think I'm getting somewhere he makes up another excuse to why i can't put the info on there. 1 reference would have been more then enough if he didn't take my words out of context and make me go through hell and creation to get a few words on the article. And he didn't stop undoing my contributions and i had two references like he has asked before. He's trying to force a actual number of references and citations i need to get this info on there.

He also still keeps sayign i'm violating the policies with an image but the image went with the article, there are no in game images on the article, and the image shows people the harbor and the article did talk about the harbor until he removed it yet again.

Hey, the dispute has finally ended. Yami found another reliable source, so it should be OK for the information to be added.

My reply here

things are still shaky because artichoker added the info back, but i tried to rephrase it and add more info because he wrote it too dry. I'm not going get into another dispute, i just think talking about the area more like a real dock and still mentioning the item in the area, but not explicitly saying what the item is would make it less dry sounding with the way he wrote it. I mean when i first wrote it, it had more body because i mentioned the rumor with the truck, but just saying there is a pickup truck with no back or side story is too dry and not what i had in mind for the article. I wanted at least to mention the area, what is in the area and/or the rumors built on the area. Yami (talk) 17:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh, another one of those IPs who edits up until the final warning, and then stops. I'm sure it'll be back soon so it can once again vandalize up until the final warning.

Sorry to take away your valuable time but I'd like a review of my last 100-250 reverts or so. I really want to make sure I'm not making any mistakes with Huggle and if I am, that I'm correcting them. Since technically I have rollback and have it enabled on Huggle for me, my Huggle reverts would really be rollbacks just way faster in terms of being all over the place. Thus abuse(I prefer "mistakes or accidents with/of" as this is more accurate) of Huggle is abuse(again, mistakes happen) of Rollback which would lead to removal of rollback and disabling of Huggle. So in essence I don't want any of that to happen. I should note here I'm busy in real life(with my summer vacation,Rockband^TM,:D) and don't really use Huggle or edit at all at the moment. I'm also working on setting up a new wiki here with other WP users and thus have little time now to check my reverts or respond to concerns/comments posted on my talk though I check both my talk and my email,talk at the new wiki, and a google groups thing for the new wiki, constantly usually leaving me with 4-5 tabs open at any one time. I really try to do my best here but mistakes slip through and it would be helpful if you could bring them to my attention so I can correct/learn from them.

As you may know, the StatusBot responsible for maintaining the status of the Highly Active Users was taken offline. We now have a replacement in the Qui status system. This semi-automatic system will allow you to easily update your status page found at Special:Mypage/Status which the HAU page code is now designed to read from. If you are already using Qui (or a compatible) system - great! - no action is needed (other than remembering to update your status as necessary). If not, consider installing Qui. You can also manually update this status by changing the page text to online, offline, or busy. While it is not mandatory, the nature of HAU is that people are often seeking a quick answer from someone who is online and keeping our statuses up-to-date will assist with this. Note if you were previously using your /Status page as something other than a one-word status indicator, your HAU entry may have been set to "status=n" to correct display issues. Please clear this parameter if you change things to be "HAU compatible". Further questions can be raised at WT:HAU. This message was delivered by xenobot 22:44, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for bringing that to my attention:-) I agree I need to improve my accuracy. I'm not 100% accurate left, and I won't be happy until I am. However, I don't exactly appreciate how you worded the comment. I'm very careful when using Huggle, and when I do make a mistake I usually catch it, and revert it back/take out the warning I gave. I've made over 3K reverts this month, and I've only made a handful of mistakes. I feel as if you're saying I'm being careless when using Huggle, and that's not the case.

Hello again. You may have remember that there was a previous content dispute about the now deleted article Glitch City initiated by User:MKULTRA333. Now the editor has come back and is trying to insert unverified, nonnotable, original research about glitches into the Pokémon Red and Blue. He refuses to listen and claims his sources are reliable. However, I think you will agree with me that they absolutely are not. These are his sources: [5], [6], [7]. Can you please help me resolve this? Discussion is (sort of) going on Talk:Pokémon Red and Blue, but the user continues to edit war on the article. I have stopped reverting for right now. Thank you.

Hi! You must have worked pretty hard at your user page, so I'm sorry to point out that the blue background looks just a bit gaudy, and moreover, makes reading the various links (in blue), and the text in general (in black) a bit difficult.

First of all, thanks for confirming my gut feeling on that AFD. Secondly, I took somewhat of a "semi-wikibreak" for a few weeks. Since I came back, I haven't been quite as active, either.

Hello. A credible authors' reference is being "overrided" by edit-warring. I recently tried to add to the telescope article but this editor seems to think that his opinion overrides a VERY credible author in Mr. Richard Powers. I've been blocked before for edit-warring recently, so I don't want this to be another incident on my record.

Anyway, the other editor seemed to have asked his friend-type editors to form a consensus, so I will do the same. The Islamic connection here is, Al-Haytham. He is FUNDAMENTAL to the telescope and the FATHER of optics. By definition, the summary can include him since the radio and electro-magnetic telescopes are derogatory to the average person looking at the article; I wanted to add it to the history section since it looked cleaner.
