Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Regarding slakr:

Why did my page get deleted?

Please see Wikipedia:Why was my page deleted? first.

I have no idea what you're talking about. What's vandalism?

If you received a warning from me and you're not logged in, you might have gotten an old warning I sent to someone who shares your IP address. On the other hand, if you've made recent edits and received a recent warning message from me and you genuinely believe that it's not vandalism, don't fret-- simply drop me a message below, because I could have simply made a silly mistake. :)

Regarding SineBot:

Why does SineBot keep signing stuff I've already signed?

All comments should have a signature that includes both a link to your user page (slakr) and a datestamp (05:12, 20 August 2007 (UTC)) (per signatures - internal links). This is most easily generated by placing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your contributions, which makes something like "slakr 05:12, 20 August 2007 (UTC)".[reply]

If you have an interwiki-linked user page, consider either creating a user page on enwiki that redirects to your preferred home wiki or simply opting out of automatic signing.

If you're still having problems after trying that, post a message below. Be sure to include diffs to make sure I can reference the problem.

I don't want my comments signed by SineBot. How do I get it to ignore me or my talk page?

Please use one of the opt-out methods listed on its user page.

SineBot forgot to sign something it should have signed.

Usually this happens because the bot isn't sure if it really should sign something, so it defaults to not signing it (e.g., in cases of complex edits). It does this to avoid being annoying. Other times, a comment might be made when the bot is down for maintenance, so the bot simply never sees it.

SineBot signed something that it genuinely should not have signed.

Please let me know-- especially if you think it's not a one-time thing. Be sure to include diffs to make sure I can reference the problem.

Is SineBot's source code available?

Not currently.

I'm signing with four tildes (~~~~) but it's still saying I didn't!

You likely enabled raw signatures. Open your preferences, click the "User profile" tab, make sure that "Treat the above as wiki markup" is NOT checked, and click Save; it should be fixed. If you have an interwiki-linked user page, consider either creating a user page on enwiki that redirects to your preferred home wiki or simply opting out of automatic signing.

could you please do me a favor?

Hello,

I am a master student at the Institute of Technology Management, National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan. Currently I am wrapping up my master thesis titled “Can Wikipedia be used for knowledge service?” In order to validate the knowledge evolution maps of identified users in Wikipedia, I need your help. I have generated a knowledge evolution map to denote your knowledge activities in Wikipedia according to your inputs including the creation and modification of contents in Wikipedia, and I need you to validate whether the generated knowledge evolution map matches the knowledge that you perceive you own it. Could you please do me a favor?

I will send you a URL link to a webpage on which your knowledge evolution map displays. Please assign the topic (concept) in the map to a certain cluster on the map according to the relationship between the topic and clusters in your cognition, or you can assign it to ‘none of above’ if there is no suitable cluster.
I will also send a questionnaire to you. The questions are related to my research topic, and I need your viewpoints about these questions.

The deadline of my thesis defense is set by the end of June, 2008. There is no much time left for me to wrap up the thesis. If you can help me, please reply this message. I will send you the URL link of the first part once I receive your response. The completion of my thesis heavily relies much on your generous help.

Sincerely

Do not delete comments

~~I ask because you are not an admin.~~ Do not delete comments from a discussion page, regardless of the contents of the comments, without first issuing a warning. There are templates for this. You should know where to find them. And before you delete this comment, or alert an admin, please cite the rule that disallows the casual use of the word fuck on Wikipedia. Thanks.

Actually, believe it or not, I am an admin, and your comment wasn't positive and was incivil; thus, it was removed. --slakr^\ talk / 07:53, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Erroneous comment stricken. Still, don't delete comments outright just because you don't think they're appropriate. There's nothing in the rules that forbids casual use of words like "fuck" on discussion pages. Also, what I posted above is not an attack. I mention this because one of your friends, coming to your aid, accused me of attacking you.

Please review WP:CIVIL and WP:TALK as slakr suggests above. Also, WP:CABAL may be helpful. I no longer remember why slakr is on my watchlist, but I agree that the tone of your discourse is unhelpful. I've edited the section heading above to be more appropriate. Also, please sign your comments per WP:TALK. Walter Siegmund (talk) 10:25, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

SLAKR, I'm not quite sure to be in the right ballpark here. However, If you look at my userpage, I got slandered by an individual which you already had warned off. As he/she said, he/she "sent you a message" and "I should ba careful what I say". I do indeed consider this a serious threat. Could it be that we are talking about the same unfriendly person, although with a different IP? Anyway, whether or not, how would you deal with such a threat? Any help is appreciated.

SineBot

I have my own Wiki called Vandalpedia. If you could create (or teach me how to create) a SineBot there that would be great! Krem ^{Tell me stuff}_{♫Whaaaat I've Doooonne!♪} 23:51, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
