Just some stuff Wan't to chat about

So the Kiss of Dawn single comes out a whopping week before Venus Doom :], and I'm going to try to preorder the LE version of Venus Doom :D it looks so pretty haha, how about you? Also I made another friend in Ireland (forgot where he lives haha), sometime in the future I am probably flying in to Ireland to see him (and you know the land that my ancestors came from <3). So when that day comes we could totally meet and discuss...something hah! Listen to some HIM maybe :]. --NekoD 17:05, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Yeh my friend who lives in ireland lives 30mi south of Dublin :D (PS) The limited edition is 50 dollars USD which is about 37 Euros :], your welcome <3. --NekoD 00:53, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

He probably lives in Wicklow somewhere then. I was thinking 50 euro including postage & packing but it's till worth it. I think I will wait to see if Amazon are selling it because they usually have stuff at half the price.Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 13:20, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

hello lady

why do you stick up for kenny g and phill collins, do you work or just volenteer, dont you have better things to do, well i was going to be mean, but your from ireland and thats cool how is ireland,

I'm a recent changes monitor who watches for edits like yours. If you continue to make edits like you did to Kenny G and Phil Collins, you will be blocked from editing. No joke about it. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 11:02, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

thanks

thanks for trying to discuss the Buy.com revert battle with the anonymous user. They won't engage in any discussion at all and simply revert every day. Anyway, I am actually from the Wee County originally but live in US now. Hope Ireland is sunny -- and stays sunny until November when I go home for a week :) Not very likely.Emccsm 01:51, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

No problemo. The guy was breaking the seriously in breach of the 3RR and I decided to warn him. If he continues, make a 3RR report on him because that kind of behaviour is really not on. Anyway, Ireland has been raining constantly for two months. Many people believe it is because Rihanna's Umbrella has been number one for 10 weeks. They just said on the radio this morning that we will get our summer from the 15th of August but until then it will be raining. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 10:59, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

This is the first I've heard of Rihanna -- I've been away from home too long. Get that song out of the charts though just in case. I don't think the other user is being malicious -- I think they genuinely believe I am being malicious but hopefully we can work with each other to figure out where the contentions lie. There's always a happy medium!User:Emccsm 05:32, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

I think Rihanna's reign was ended by Fergie a week back but that doesn't stop hearing Umbrella non-stop on the radio. You seem to want to talk it out but he just keeps giving warnings. He probably thinks your edits are disruptive but him not talking and giving template "test" warnings are a hell of a lot more disruptive. He is actually being incredebly uncivil which is a huge no-no. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 14:01, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Re:Valary DiBenedetto

i don't know what you are talking about but i did hear that they did break up due to differences so why not tell the world. i don't see how that is violating.

Making edits like this is vandalism unless you have sources for it. And regarding their break-up, reference it with reliable sources or it will be deleted. Thank you Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 11:11, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

what do you mean leave it with a reference are you saying that i am lying because i sent on myspace a message to m.shadows [Matt] on the a7x myspace and asked him and he said yes they did break up.

Without a reference, from a reliable source, the information just looks like spectulation and rumour. If something was said on a news website like MTV or CNN or something like that great. But MySpaces are not reliable sources as many "celebrity" MySpaces are actually fakes and I could send you a list of links to fake MySpaces to back that up.

Twin paradox

Hey... thanks for sorta closing ranks with me, though it wasn't nearly necessary. I've already accidentally gone past the 3RR... oops... so if you could deal with his last vandalism warning, etc, on the page, that'd be good. Explain to him that he should discuss with those who understand the topic that the facts presented are irrelevant, before simply removing them, and that we didn't write the article, we're just trying to prevent vandalism. Ok? Thanks!! Gscshoyru 13:24, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 13:26, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

I gave him a final warning and he has stopped reverting the page. Now he's using the talk page to discuss the matter with other editors.Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 13:35, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Which is the way it should be. Thanks. Gscshoyru 13:36, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Again no problem. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 13:38, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Melodic Horror II

AOS-good news-Melodic Horror got blocked indefintely! I'm happythat s&%#head ate it,are you?--Xterra1 17:57, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

I had the report on my watchlist, went out for an hour, came back and found he had been blocked. It's wonderful news now I'll be able to enjoy my holiday when it starts of course :D. Although the title you left on my talk page scared me for a second because I thought you were saying he created another account under that name. Thank god it isn't. I now get to take the articles he edited of my watchlist. But if you get any angry comments like he sent you and/or see edits like his again, leave a message on my talk page. Hopefully he'll stay away, but seeing as he was found to be a more disruptive sock of AFI-PUNK, I wouldn't be surprised if he showed his face around these quarters again. Maybe he'll be dumb enough to leave a completely random angry message our talk pages. At least we don't have to deal with him now. It's time for celebration and a dance :D Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 18:05, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for warning that anonymous IP (well, I presume anonymous IP) about vandalism to my user page. Strange that one year of involvement in East European edit conflicts and now a week in Belgian ones, did not lead to anyone vandalizing, but deleting a personal attack on DerHexer (Talk) at a third party's (well, I presume third party's) talk page (see this to know what the reason was) netted two instances. --Pan Gerwazy 19:04, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Userbox div has a horizontal scrollbar

I don't know if this was intended, but the div containing your userboxes is not wide enough on a display resolution of 1024x768, so it has a horizontal scrollbar. --Noerrorsfound 00:16, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

If it's on my "about me" page, I actually don't know how to fix it to be suitable for those dimensions as my screen is 1280x1024 so I dont' know how it looks on a 1024x768 screen. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 13:52, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Here's a screenshot: [1] You can temporarily change your resolution to 1024x768 while attempting to fix it, so you can see when you've gotten it to be wide enough.. --Noerrorsfound 16:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Nomination for Adminship

I have nominated you for adminship, I strongly encourage you accept the nomination here. Hoponpop69 06:23, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you so much for the nomination, seriously I wasn't expecting it. But I don't know if I can accept it yet as I only created my account two months ago and there's is still so much that I don't know about wikipedia. I know I have done a fair amount of vandalism/sockpuppet fighting(for a newbie anyway) but I still want to make a stub article into a proper article (or something along those lines). I really appreciate the nomination but I think it would be better to nominate me when I feel like I know what I'm doing and I've made the super article which is currently stored in my head :D. When I create it, I will post a link to it on my talk page (I'll probably be very proud of it) and it'll be then when the nominations might start. But really thanks for having so much faith and confidence in what I have done here at wikipedia. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 13:20, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, AngelOfSadness. I think you helped to clean up my user page from vandalism a little while back. Anyway, I noticed the above message regarding an adminship nomination, and I strongly encourage not to accept. It's not that I think you're unqualified (actually, I think you'd be absolutely great!), but I know the rest of Wikipedia will show you no mercy at all. I have had two nominations already, one when I was 2-3 months experienced, and the other when I was 5-6 months experienced. Both failed (and the first one wasn't pretty). The users who run (constantly vote) on RfA's will only pass someone who, in my opinion, is rather like Superman. You must meet the following statistics to pass:

• Be a balanced editor (perfect mix of good article-editing with good vandal fighting).
• High edit count (no less than 4,000 total, with at least 2,000 in mainspace and 1,000 in Wikipedia-space).
• No serious blocks in your block log.
• No evidence of any incivility (one single comment that you made two months ago could come back and haunt you forever when some overzealous admin-voter sniffs it out).
• Plenty of experience in AfD's.
• At least 6 months of active experience (and that's pushing it :-])

In light of all this, I can (unfortunately) guarantee that you will not pass. I would probably be the only one to support you. Just stick around for a few more months and keep up all the hard work (and especially get active in article writing a little more), and maybe I'll nominate you in the future. But please, don't put yourself through such a depressing experience like I did twice. See you around, and Happy Editing! -- P.B. Pilhet 18:55, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi P.B. Pilhet, thanks for the kind words regarding my Rfa(it even feels weird to type it). I was thinking the exact same things that you said that's why I declined the Rfa nomination. I know I'm alright at vandal fighting but I still haven't made that super great article/contribution which would be shown off proudly in the almighty Rfa nomination report(which almost seems like a resume in a way).

I was also thinking that this Rfa would be in no way successful as I've seen some Rfa nomination reports, and some of the comments on them are so brutally honest that it's scary. But there is a lot of editors that are like that (the Simon Cowells of Wikipedia when it comes to Rfa nominations), they might expect to see a huge orchestra playing Carmina Burana. Instead they see a lone singer/songwriter stumbling to center stage, spotlight following shortly behind, while playing a badly-written, two minute song on an out-of-tune guitar while the singer is so nervous that their voice keeps cracking in and out of key. Unfortunately my edits currently would be a lot like the latter performance and a lot of the other editors know that. But I'm going to keep learning the tricks of editing and I will use them to write the super great article I have in my head. And hopefully the next time I'm nominated will be when my edits are more like a Carmina Burana performance and it will please Simon Cowell. Thanks again and Happy Editing!! :D Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 20:40, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm glad you see reason :-) I wish I had seen reason before going through my first RfA; though I wasn't too downhearted after failing it, because I kinda knew I would. I simply used it for feedback. However, I was quite disappointed after my second one failed. The "standards" at Wikipedia for RfA's are currently way, way too high right now. Like you said, they're pretty much all Simon Cowells expecting a spectacular performance. The way I see it, the only way to pass an RfA is if you basically live on Wikipedia. It's too bad, because I would like to be an admin; but I also want to have a life. And since I have to choose between the two of them, I choose the life. See you around! -- P.B. Pilhet 01:33, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

• As an uninvolved drive-by lurker... you've got the right idea on RFA; it would be kamikaze to accept one right now (well, not quite that bad) and a failed RFA can be a brutal process. Still, you don't necessarily have to live on Wikipedia, you just need to be around for a while (6 months to 1 year generally) and prove to people that you can be trusted with the tools. It's not nearly as hard as it sounds, you just need to know the right areas to involve yourself in.--Isotope23 ^talk 20:55, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Cool so I don't have to worry about Rfa nominations especially right now. Thanks for putting my mind at ease. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 21:31, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

If you are interested in becoming an admin some day... it's probably a good idea to involve yourself in activities other than vandal fighting as well. Vandal fighting is an important function, but to be an admin you need to demonstrate that you understand policies and guidelines by participating in deletion discussions, reviewing WP:PROD articles, helping out at WP:ANI... etc.--Isotope23 ^talk 19:46, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice. I have dabbled in various other fields(like sockpuppet reports,deletion discussions,speedy deletions etc) besides vandal fighting. I will contribute to other fields once I have learned more about the various polices and guidelines attached to them. But I'm in no hurry to become an admin any time soon as I still consider myself as newbie even though I've been here about two and a half months.Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 19:58, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Is this another sock of AFI-Punk?

[2] Hoponpop69 17:54, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

This guy doesn't look like to be another sock as his IP address can be traced to Melbourne, Austrailia where as AFI-PUNK lived in Germany. Also some of the edits may be similar but they're not all to do with Papa Roach. But thanks for keeping a lookout for another sock. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 20:49, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry but I'm failing to see what exactly is the problem is. Also neither of the editors you mentioned edited the article in recent times. You can see for yourself here. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 21:54, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Could you send me an email at Prodego@gmail.com. There is a private issue I would like to discuss with you. Thank you, Prodego ^talk 19:32, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, I have replied to your responce. Prodego ^talk 22:30, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Revert Shang-Chi and welcome.

Thank you for your revert of the Shang-Chi article. It was my first time editing 'pedia from the Wii console and didn't notice it cut off half of the article. Thanks again!

Confusion

I am a bit confused with what you meant by me deleting something? I did not understand this.

Thanks

You kept deleting the "speedy deletion notice" from the top of the Chris Los page which I had inserted. Deleting it is considered bad practice. See here for what you were deleting. Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 19:18, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Shannen Doherty

I apologize for prematurely jigging to the wrong conclusion regarding Ms. Doherty. My brother-in-law, who recently suffered a tragic loss (and has not been handling it well), informed me about her supposed passing. Had I known that his source was Mr. Fortright, I would have done a more thorough fact-checking. I apologize if I offended you in any way, and please pass on my sincere apology to Ms. Doherty. I wish her the best as I am a big fan of Beverly Hills 90210. Thanks for keeping my troubled brother in check. Cheers.

It would have been better if you had made a quick google news search before writing that, as such edits are considered vandalism. But if it were true, the article would have been already updated following news reports as fans would editing the article as the news is breaking. Please be more careful with future edits. Thank you Angel Of Sadness ^T/C 00:32, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Once again, I sincerely apologize. You have brightened my though, now knowing that Ms. Doherty is in fact alive and well. I understand what you are saying about fans quickly updating the page, however, that is why I updated it when John told me about it. I am a big fan of Ms. Doherty. I have a 3' x 4' poster of her on my basement wall. I do not mean to be intrusive, but how do you know Ms. Doherty? I really would love to meet her.
