The Institutes for The Achievement of Human Potential (IAHP)
Thanks for reverting the blanking of the Criticism section of this article. I looked up the IP address of the user 64.80.202.67 who made the edits and got "The Institutes (IAHP), Glenside, Pennsylvania, US". Is there a specific warning for organisations who edit their own article to remove all criticism? Of course, it may have been a "well meaning" non-staff member using their computers, but in that case they have an issue with abuse of their computer network. -- Colin°Talk 08:41, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your help
Just want to thank you for your advice on my talk page - that user has been going around deleting other stuff too - see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=New_Jersey&diff=prev&oldid=97866938 for another example - the New York one had a {{disputed|date=December 2006}} tag on it - shouldn't the disputed text be left until the result is found out? Sorry if these are dumb questions - I am (obviously) really new here. Alucard (Dr.) 22:11, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Pinguim Crystal.
Hello Luna Santin. I am just wondering about penguins on your user page. What is penguin for? Is the penguin that I am mentioning is mascot of Linux? Or the other operating system's mascot? Just curious about penguin on your user page. Cheers! Daniel5127 <Talk> 00:46, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Good catch!

Barnstar
 |
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar | |
| For knowing when to welcome a user and when to rangeblock an entire ISP, for your anti-vandalism efforts, for your general ability to get stuff done, for your attempts to calm down the petty squabbles about IRC on the incidents noticeboard, and for being a more experienced administrator than me despite making your first edit only six months ago, when I was already at RfA, you get another barnstar to add to your collection. – Gurch, 24 December 2006 |
Yes, I know you said don't give me any more barnstars, but that was nearly three months ago, and you haven't had this one before. And more importantly, you deserve it. Oh, and Merry Christmas.
- Hmmm, my rather long explanation makes a mess of your nice barnstar table. You can trim it down a bit if you like, I don't mind :) – Gurch 11:07, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
User:Technajunky block
I hate edit conflicts :-) I'd an {{unblock reviewed}} typed in with wording just about 100% the same as yours, and then I found you'd beaten me to it by about 30 seconds :-) I see the user has once again blanked all the warnings - I think protection on that talk page might be called for until the block expires. Shall I protect it and add instructions to take it to WP:RFP when the block expires, if you think that's OK? Tonywalton | Talk 10:15, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
- Khoikhoi's run a checkuser on Technajunky and warned him/her about sockpuppetry; that one was blanked as well. I've protected it now. Merry Xmas, by the way! Tonywalton | Talk 10:23, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Untitled section
Hi,
I was just having a go at a BiancaMed page. I am hoping to do something along the lines of ResMed (who happen to be an investor) without being spam-like. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Biancamed (talk • contribs) 25 December 2006.

Hi, I wish you to please restore the articles Allah Ditta lunewala or at lest give the the stuff so that I may re-create it and add some more information to it He is famous regional singer. Abulfazl 09:25, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
Explosion (band)
what is your problem —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mcgillismusic (talk • contribs) 26 December 2006.
Looking at the deleted revisions, I believe that the band article Explosion (band) doesn't fall under CSD A7 - they were claimed to have toured multiple countries, which certainly satisfies WP:MUSIC. Secondly they had at least one member who later joined a notable(?) band - Menudo. Finding sources for these claims is another thing, but the mere presence of a plausible claim is enough for the article to escape speedy. Please restore the page. Kimchi.sg 11:18, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, I was looking at Explosion (the band) which Mcgillismusic had moved explosion to - that was the one you deleted as CSD A7. But the content is identical. :] I'll undelete the "(band)" version since it's the proper disambiguated title, and list at AfD for input.
(I do think there are WP:COI and WP:SPAM concerns with the Mcgillismusic user, but I think the article is re-writeable if there are enough sources so I'm letting more eyes take a look. OTOH if everyone wants the stuff to be deleted we'll have a consensus to do so. ;-) Kimchi.sg 12:04, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Done. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Explosion (band). Kimchi.sg 12:26, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Cleanup after puppet account
Hi,
Thank you for your help with the puppet account User:IanFuller (block log). I was wondering if you mind deleting Image:SIA Cabin Crew.jpg? Since the purpose of the puppet account was to give the impression of being the copyright holder, I thought that it seemes unnecessary to wait for the image to be deleted as a orphaned fair use image.
Sincerely, Oden 14:56, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
thanks for advice. btw, i am wba at irc. cheers, West Brom 4ever 00:04, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Serial vandalism
You have reverted several vandal attacks by User:Ranceturd, and blocked him/her, apparently on the grounds of an inappropriate username. This vandal has already been banned several times for making identical attacks -- see Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Szamuels, Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Fumigate, Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/RanceRol. S/he sets up frequent new user ids, apparently using an anonymiser or proxy server, solely with the purpose of posting abuse about Roland Rance. S/he clearly looks at my contributions history, using this as a guide to where to post this abuse -- there is no other logical explanation for posting comments on Farouk Kaddoumi, Gilad Atzmon and Roberto Rosselini; the only connection is that I had recently edited all of them.
This person is stalking me on Wikipedia, and abusing the project as a whole. Is there any way that s/he can be stopped? --RolandR 00:24, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Salsa music
Hello-- I have no idea what's going on with this page-- When you were doing your revert I also was reverting it to remove that image and take it back to an earlier version. I note that on your edit a link to the image still appears. I don't know if there was anything of value eliminated, but it would be a small price to pay to get rid of that image. Regards, Kablammo 00:12, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for watching this. I have to sign off now; I hope the vandal can be blocked before more damage is done. Kablammo 00:15, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
Luna, not sure what to do about this - Joelr31 (talk • contribs) (admin) hasn't been around over Christmas, and it looks like the Salsa vandal is trying to create the impression of being Joelito. Sandy (Talk) 00:26, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Autoblock/rangeblocks tweaking
Before trying to tweak any rangeblocks or autoblocks, could you please see me in #-clerks - Essjay needs me to pass on some critical info to you. Daniel.Bryant [ T · C ] 06:18, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

You said: "Any chance you'd care to comment on this unblock request? This isn't the only person who seems to have been caught up in it."
- I lifted the block. The ISP has completely ignored my abuse report. This means we almost certainly will now have to fight yet more Cute 1 4 u (talk • contribs) sockpuppets. Additionally, this block shouldn't have affected anyone who already had an account. I'm sorry for the collateral, however. --Yamla 19:28, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

- It's okay, I believe you. I check the Opronc/Opronc-oA pages occasionally to see if anything changed. I don't know about you, but I think it's funny that this User has a list of Users he "doesn't like." It seems that you are one of them; and so, not surprisingly, am I.

- Okay, thanks. I'll let you get back to your own work. I'll check the Opronc-oA Talk Page more often, just to see what Opronc/Opronc-oA has to say. Acalamari 02:49, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

where did "cold fusion/tmp" go ?
Copied from archive: You seem to have deleted cold fusion/tmp on Sept 18, 2006. This temporary page was written by a cold fusion researcher, and, as such, contained valuable information. I wanted to have a second look at it to improve the cold fusion article. Why was it deleted ? Was the deletion discussed and approved somewhere ? Is there anyway to find it again ? It would be sad if we could not find it anymore. Pcarbonn 22:07, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
- Any news from this undeletion ? Should I start a deletion review ? Pcarbonn 19:48, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Blocking my account
You blocked my ISP address for simply restoring a link named the Lets talk Dusty site repeatedly, that was previously destroyed and removed by ravenfire again and again. I really resent that you took it on yourself to see my actions as vandalism when I was only restoring the links and NOT deleting them. You should have contacted by message first! Do it again and I'll report you to Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Brum2k (talk • contribs) 30 December 2006.
Reply to declined message on my talk page
To add to that, the IP address doesn't seem to be a shared one, or isn't shared among very many people, and it's starting to look like you're the same person. Do you have a slightly more robust explanation, perhaps?
(Gives you the stupid dog look) Seven minutes? How'm I supposed to know I logged in seven minutes after the dweeb was blocked? Pffft, I can't help bad timing on my part. :P Yes, it has been a while, obviously....death in the family, grieving, and probate chaos tends to do that. But I suppose that's not robust enough for you...*shrugs* So... I have questions for you. You apparently glanced at my article edit dates, but... (1) Have you looked at the subject matter? Does the subject matter match the other dweeb's usual haunts? (2) Since you won't google me, have you looked at the COMMENTS that I've made on articles I watch? That's where most of my blabbering has been. (Since it's been a while, you'll probably need to search the respective article "talk"'s archives.) Otherwise, hey, you can always drop me an email and I'll explain things further that way. Open invitation to land in my inbox. :) There's a link via my user page, I believe, I don't want to direct link my email here since I get more than enough spammage already.

Loads o Rangeblocks
Hello Luna, I notice you have been making quite a few large rangeblocks recently and I was just wondering why, since these /16 blocks affect over 65000 IPs each. Sorry to bother you, Prodego talk 04:34, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- Nothing to worry about, just that there seemed to be an awful lot (in general, not you) of /16 blocks going on, and I was wondering if I was missing something! ;-) Prodego talk 05:59, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I see you blocked this user indef with the reason vandal account. This user has claimed his account was compromised by a household member. Looking through the users contribution history I tend to believe him. All vandalism is at the end of his contributions following general helpfulness.
I reduced the block to 4 days warning the user that he is responsible for his account. I hope I have not stepped on your toes too much with this. If you know something I do not I will gladly rethink this. I will be watching the user's contributions very closely. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 16:26, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
quick question re: SEGA checkuser
The SEGA checkuser was moved to complete with only 1 of SEGA's 3 IP addys being blocked. It is nice to see an overdue punishment handed down...but SEGA does just as much damage using the other 2 IP addresses. Should they not have been given the same block duration as the "prime" IP? Just wondering. Thanks, cheers and Happy New Year! Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 05:49, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Re: Userpages
Luna is grouchy. —Brian Michael Barbera 02:20, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
I need your help
Dear Luna Santin,
First of all, I want to say, you are the only administrator that has shown any respect to me, and for that, I come to ask that you help me overcome this outstanding prejudice directed toward myself by the many pompous admins that continue to block me and harass me unfairly. While I have made mistakes in the past, I assure you I am committed to only contributing to wikipedia.
I am angry because the last time I was blocked was completely unfair. I was issued a warning because I posted "I love you" on two users talk pages. While they took this as a joke, I took it as my try to make peace with these people that i felt wronged me in the past. I'm sorry if "love" is considered a joke around here. While I tried explaining that I should not be warned for something like this, they decided they did not want to hear the radical idea that they were exerting their overzealous attitude towards me, instead of being responsible admins. As a result, they decided to keep me quiet by blocking me for a week. While on this ban, they decided to accuse me of having a sockpuppet, because this user claimed he was me in an edit. Everybody knows a sockpuppet would not admit he is one in his own edit. Since they foolishly thought this user was a sockpuppet of mine, they extended the block to 1 month, to further keep me quiet. I, obviously finding this as unfair, decided to request an unblock, because an accusation that has no actual evidence is no reason to extend the block. Since this was a way of me speaking out, they rejected and even protected my page, which is why you may not be able to respond on my page until the user decides to unprotect it.
I hope you can get back to me, and really help me out. I feel mistreated, and, as a person that cannot stand unjust people and a person that fights for what is right, I want to fight this, so that this whole mishap is solved. If you can help in any way, that would be appreciated. I know that I might even get blocked again for writing this letter, since it involves me speaking out against the almighty admins, even though what I am speaking out against, is wrong.
Thank you, Sportsguru9999 08:19, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
