Your signature

Have you ever been asked about or considered changing your signature? Wikipedia:Username lists as inappropriate, "Names of religious figures such as 'God', 'Jehovah', 'Buddha', or 'Allah', which may offend other people's beliefs". You may not be aware of it, but King of Kings is a name given to Jesus in the Christian religion and is used for God in several other religions as well, including Islam and Judaism. I realize that you have been using it for nearly a month or more now and I realize it is only your signature and not actually your username, however, given the spirit of the policy and not merely the letter thereof, it may be advisable to consider changing it. BigDT 04:36, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

I think he's making a Triple H reference, not a reference to God. But, then again, I know nothing of wrestling or religion -- Samir (The Scope) 04:38, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, since no one has complained, I think it is fine. Thetruthbelow 04:41, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

That may be ... I know nothing of wrestling ... and assuming good faith, I'm sure there is no intention to use an offensive user name. But even so, signing a name that could be understood to have religious implications, even if not intentionally making a religious statement, is something worth reconsidering in light of the policy. BigDT 04:43, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Actually, King of Kings is in reference to the song, King of Kings which is Triple H's current theme music. King of Kings, in my signature, has no other meaning to me. — Moe 04:49 July 03 '06

Ok ... as I said before, I assume good faith - I did not assume your intent was to offend ... I would just suggest reading the policy. If, after reading, you feel that your use of the signature is consistent with the intent of the policy, that's fine. BigDT 04:58, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

The only problem I have with your signature is that it's not even close to your username. I thought you were a completely different user until I edited a talk page section that had your signature (and the code). Joturner 21:10, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Greetings, good friend. Please review my last post on Emir Arven - and tell me (sincerely), am I being highly irridentist and/or unreasonable - or just banging my head on a wall from which it wil bounce no matter what I say. --HolyRomanEmperor 12:04, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Royal Rumble

Hi again. I'm almost ready to get started on working on the Royal Rumble articles. I've got a couple of drafts ready and I was wondering if there's any corrections that's needed on the articles. I've done ones for 1988 and 2005. As there's a few individual articles for the Rumble (though are currently redirects) during the last four years, I'm going to go backwards and start with them first. Since you're not up to the brand extension era yet, I was wondering how you would have approached some parts of the 2005 article. -- Oakster 18:01, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I've done the corrections. Would this draft do? -- Oakster 22:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Well it's off to work then. Thanks very much for your help, I'll hopefully get this project finished. -- Oakster 22:42, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for Supporting my RfA!

Hey, go ahead and auto-archive this message, as it's here to report my RfA, which passed by a margin of 54/6/1. Sorry for the tardy "thank you," but I have been busy watching the World Cup, as well as hand-typing each of these "thank yous", and needless to say, I haven't had much time. If you ever see me doing something wrong as an admin, don't hesitate to leave a note at my talk page. Sorry again for the late thank you, and thanks again for supporting, Ian Manka 18:39, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

HRE's trip to a better place

Greetings. I am HRE's cousin. I have a sad news to announce (as per his brother's wish) - my dear brother-by-aunt is no more in the world of the living... It pains me enough to write this - so I'm just going to point you to HRE's talk page -- Sad News 20:48, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Issue with a wrestling promotion

Hey Moe. Haven't spoke in a while so I thought I'd bring this up with you. Total Wrestling Entertainment is the newest promotion to open in Australia. However, recently they have run into a bit of trouble with sponsors, events etc. (you know, the usual failing indy promotion story!). I have just noticed a lot of negative yet true information has been deleted from the article by User:Stevenpullen3156, who just happens to be one of the owners of the promotion (as it states in his user name). How should I handle this issue? I'm a little bit intimidated to leave a message on his talk page as he may let loose on Wikipedia for making the promotion look bad. Normy132 01:41, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for that. Normy132 07:53, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Removal of the vote

I won't make any edit wars, but you, Moe, were the supporter of adminship of HRE. And you have removed my vote on the talkpage, which was against HRE's adminship.
You have removed the vote of someone who had opposite point of view. That's not fair.
"At this moment"? I don't think HRE is dead. Violation (hacking) of user accounts are things that happen. Some freak that hacked his account is laughing loudly now. The wiki-fishies have bitten the bait. Kubura 09:55, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

List of Number of World Heavyweight Title Reigns page is a mess

well theres a big disscussion about who to call a World Champion, One User keeps on removing WWF (1970-Hogan), ECW (1993-1999) championship reigns from list citing they aren't recongnized world champs since WWF was in the NWA, and PWI doesn't recongnized ECW champs before 1999, I just want to get a consences on this before it turns to a revert war BionicWilliam 01:19, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Response to editing

Hello,

You certainly should not find the editing of TWE’s wikipedia page intimidating. I certainly welcome your edits and thank you for taking the time to constantly update our page.

However, I am not comfortable with the posting of information, be true or not, which is not intended for the public.

I certainly hope you can understand my comments from my perspective.

Kind Regards, Steven Pullen

NPA and NPOV

I appreciate your concern with NPA and NPOV you expressed with regards to my RFA. I can assure you that I take these matters very seriously. The evidence is in my contributions. It took me quite a while to truly understand the intricasies of these ideas (maybe more than a year) but I think I've really developed a good appreciation for them. --ScienceApologist 16:50, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind words and advice. I don't anticipate my feelings will be hurt if I don't get administrator tools. I understand that a lot of people view this process as a "status" thing, but I can't help but feel that this is entirely too silly. I really just want to be able to fight vandalism more easily, speedy delete nonsense that I come across, and help out in some of the tasks that are difficult to do as a user but a breeze to do as an admin. So if people decide that I'm a "risk" when I want to help them out, it's the community's loss, no? Besides, we're totally transparent here. Every one of my contributions is visible for someone to sort through and see what I'm like. --ScienceApologist 17:15, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Who else would eat all the mangoes except the monkey. --Bhadani 15:29, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

HIM

I must point out two things. First, it's really inaccurate to say the band is unclassifiable; there are conflicting accounts as to how they're classified, but they're not unclassifiable. There's a difference in the semantics. Second, all the genres listed are rock genres. WesleyDodds 21:39, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Metal is a form of rock music, as Allmusic.com and various encyclopedias on the subject of rock music maintain. But the more important point is that the phrase "unclassifiable" is subjective in this context. Why is HIM unclassifiable? Because the editors of Wikipedia have not come to a consensus on the band's classification. If a source or three says they are unclassifiable, then that's certainly something to work with. WesleyDodds 02:36, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Does it have to say "unclassifiable" in the intro? The article could always take the route of Green Day (also subject to genre debates) and just say musical band. The word "unclassifiable" just raises an issue which probably isn't that important in the greater scheme of the band's importance and notability. Mind you I don't actually listen to HIM, and as such the word "unclassifiable" doesn't actually help anyone without a frame of reference with the band. This seems more an issue which vexes fans of HIM itself. WesleyDodds 02:52, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

In my view it doesn't matter in this case what genre is listed first. People would be prone to shuffle them around anyways. Probably just go alphabetically. WesleyDodds 02:55, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your support!

My RfA thanks

Hello Moe Epsilon, and thank you for your support at my Request for Adminship, which succeeded with an overwhelming final count of (105/2/0). I was very pleased with the outpouring of kind words from the community that has now entrusted me with these tools, from the classroom, the lesson in human psychology and the international resource known as Wikipedia. The Free Encyclopedia. Please feel free to leave me plenty of requests, monitor my actions (through the admin desk on my userpage) and, if you find yourself in the mood, listen to some of what I do in real life. In any case, keep up the great work and have a fabulous day. Grandmasterka 06:46, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Slightly dissappointed with myself...

I'm feeling extremely dissappointed with myself on Wikipedia. As you may know, there is a pretty large gap of about 80 edits seperating the number of main namespace edits (266 edits) and user talk namespace edits (348 edits.) Also, I have a very low amount of edits per day (about 5.) I don't have any idea how I can fix these two problems. As far as I know, you make at least 50 edits a day, so I thought I would ask you for a little advice on how to bump up my activity on Wikipedia to at least 20 edits a day. I have a few questions for you:

1. How do you choose which articles you want to edit?
3. Where can I find good references to use to expand articles?
4. Do you have a particular "editing style?"
5. And lastly, a totally unrelated question: Are you a member of Esperanza? I have been considering joining for a while and I would like to know what Esperanza does.

Thanks! --Evan Robidoux 04:32, 18 July 2006 (UTC)]

Thanks. Your advice was exactly what I was looking for. I think I can get a better grip on editing articles. To be honest, I didn't follow my interests when I edited Wikipedia and ended up here. Here, you deserve this:

Your comments on WP:AN

I'm not sure what you were intending to accomplish with this comment, but I don't think you were very civil, nor do I think such comments will convince others that you are correct. Perhaps this is not important for you. For the record, while I understand that the phrase has a different meaning for you, I, too, feel that your signature is in poor taste, to say the least. Alteripse is correct that the policy cares about the name itself, not the intent behind the name. There are times when a user apparently has a valid reason for selecting an otherwise inappropriate name, and the user is asked to select a username. — Knowledge Seeker 04:47, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate the polite response. I have not asked you to change your signature—for several reasons, the most significant being that this phrase does not carry any significant meaning in my religion or culture. I do try to look at matters from multiple points of view, however, and can quite understand why others take offense. Another reason is you tend to make the right decision, and I am sure you will in this case (whatever that decision may be). I would like to suggest, however, that if you are going to keep as your signature a phrase that refers to the central religious figure of a major religion (among multiple meanings), you are going to have to learn to deal better with the complaints you may receive; you'll have to learn to remain polite and not lose your happy mode. I am not unsympathetic; I would be quite irritated if "Knowledge Seeker" turned out to be a reference to a prominent religious figure. Finally, I appreciate you indulging my vanity. — Knowledge Seeker 06:16, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to see you go again.

Hey Moe, I'm really sorry that you've decided to leave again. Francs2000 leaving hit me hard too, but I hope that maybe if we work extra hard, we can make up something of what will be missed by him being gone. Good luck with the articles you are finishing, and I hope to see you back here sometime. -- Natalya 01:27, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
