Canvassing

Hi Strangnet, yes you're right that its canvassing. However I'm inclined to let that slip by: I don't think we'd achieve anything by further confronting the user at this point. She seems to have got the message that she can't continue to edit war in the article, and I am hopeful that the AfD will reach a sensible conclusion. Thanks, Gwernol 14:42, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Informing her that canvassing generally isn't considered good practice might be appropriate - she might not know since it looked more like an attempt in desperation than actual bad faith on her part. --Strangnet _{(t, c)} 14:45, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That might be a good idea. An gentle, informative comment on her talk page might be helpful. If you want to do that, I wouldn't object. Gwernol 14:48, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

V-Ray

Hi there, Strangnet - I noticed that recently you helped maintain the page V-Ray. I just did a major reworking of this page and am also kind of new, so I'm not sure what the procedure is now. Is it OK now? Am I allowed to take off the "clean up" message? Elena the Quiet 07:33, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Elenathequiet[reply]

Sounds weird. Have you tried restarting the browser or even the computer? Sometimes these things happen for no apparent reason. --Strangnet _{(t, c)} 21:10, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Du Stangnet

Förlåt om jag var dum förrut jag gjorde lite misstag men det gör alla ibland skulle jag kunna bli avblockerad Jag lovar jag har lärt mig min läxa. MVH Kabom —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.67.255.155 (talk) 14:24, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Din blockering är fram till 26 november och jag ser ingen anledning att den inte ska få löpa tiden ut. Bästa sättet du kan visa att du förstått varför ditt konto blockerades en månad är att acceptera längden - som ingen administratör valt att ifrågasätta - och inse att det inte primärt har med din behandling av en specifik artikel att göra utan hur du agerat på det stora hela i flera artiklar och mot flera andra användare. Dessvärre[1] verkar det inte som du tagit till dig något alls av den kritik som framförts - acceptera den situation som du själv placerat dig i och bemöt andra som du själv vill bli bemött, med ömsesidig respekt och sakliga framställningar av dina argument, så ska du se att andra kommer vilja ta till sig av dina synpunkter. Att börja raljera om sin blockering hjälper föga. --Strangnet (talk) 23:06, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hörru

Jag såg vilka elaka kommentarer du gav på wp:boå om mig. Ni försår er inte på mig även om ni själv tror det. Det där med omdirigeringssidorna var nytt för mig jag har aldrig prövat förr sådant och Bongoman är lustigt namn det låter som om denna användare gillar apor eller bongotrummor ni påpekar mig som en vandal men jag gjorde jävlat säkert i grunden mycket för wikipedia.--213.67.255.155 11:33, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Du har med tydlighet visat att du inte är mogen att vare sig ta till dig kritik eller agera i samförstånd med andra. Dina omdirigeringar av (egenskapade) användarsidor är ett tydligt fall av vandalism och med den historik du har så är måttet för min del rågat. --Strangnet 12:07, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Det finns många lustiga namn, nu vet jag inte vad exakt vad du ställt till med Kabom, men omdirigera användarsidor? Du kan säkert ha synpunkter på Strangnets åtgärder mot dig, men hans inlägg på WP:BOÅ var INTE elakt, tvärtom så uppvisar han tålamod. Ghostrider(Swe) 19:44, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Jaså! Ni alla kommenterar min ålder ni själv är lika galna ibland har jag försökt förklara endel grejer men man blir ju irriterad när ingen fattar. Ni alla ser för lite bra sidor med mig försök inse fördelarna.--213.67.255.155 14:06, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Det jag skrev till Riggwelter var inget hot jag sa bara att blockeringen av mig är snart över.--213.67.255.155 (talk) 13:01, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Det spelar ingen större roll, då frågan för tillfället är färdigdiskuterad. --Strangnet (talk) 23:57, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Limnor

Hi,

I need some objective views on the Limnor article. Please see the talk and history pages: User:ESOK has a different opinion than I do about what should and what should not be on a computer language page.

Thanks, --Slashme (talk) 09:00, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Need explanation

Hello user Strangnet

Regarding to this: "Reverted 1 edit by 86.34.48.187 identified as vandalism to last revision by Strangnet." in en.wikipedia.org/Copenhagen

Please explain your action based relative to Wikipedia's interpretation on vandalism. In my opinion you are mistaken. I expect you will convince me you're not. Otherwise I will consider your action an abuse and will report it accordingly.

Thank you, no user —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.34.48.51 (talk) 07:30, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia's articles are not meant to be collections of links. If you see the template I added to the user in question (you?), you'll see more information. The same link has been inserted in the article on the Swedish language Wikipedia, where I am an administrator and spend most of my time, which make it crosswiki spamming. Three IP:s from Romania have so far added the link, so I would bring it up for a diskussion before adding it again. --Strangnet (talk) 11:49, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the explanation about the real reason for removing the link. "Vandalism", as you called it in the first place, has nothing to do with it, as we can see. This site isn't for advertising/promotion nor is it a simple collection of links. I already knew about the use of the nofollow tags in wiki and I have no interest whatsoever in the institutions administrating the web pages using the URLs I offered as a resource for people to use. I visited Copenhagen as a tourist two years ago and I personally visited most of the sights/attractions presented in the site. More, around 80% of the photos used in the site are original ones that I shoot personally. Yes the site is mine and yes I read the conflict of interest page.

Sorry for the crosswiki spamming.

Considering the above, please be more explicit about what do I need to change in the site so that It will meet your set of criteria for posting.

Thank you! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.34.48.179 (talk) 14:05, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you're the one behind the web page that was linked, then you definitely should not promote your site here. It is a clear conflict of interest. If your site is relevant and useful, others might find it is useful for inclusion in Wikipedia articles' external links - it's not recommended that you make that decision, since you're clearly biased. Since your site is not officially affiliated with Copenhagen it's probably not worth mentioning in the article in the first place. If visitors are looking for images of copenhagen, then flickr or panoramio are much better sources as they have huge amounts of material on the subject. --Strangnet (talk) 15:53, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
