Fort Hood shooting

I'm moving the references to a format that all experienced editors on Wikipedia recognize. The formatting that you, or someone, instituted is a non-regular way of citing and it is extremely confusing to most editors. There is no issue with citations actually appearing inline and I would suggest a new format of referencing should not be experimented with on a new article with so much content.

Cool use of Tempate:Deleter!

I was tempted to do the same... Made me laugh! Huon (talk) 14:31, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

revert

Please be more careful, and try not to carelessly revert. Thank you. --William S. Saturn (talk) 05:04, 12 November 2009 (UTC) (personal attacks removed)[reply]

You must have gone out of your way to create a diff so misleading. Why don't you tell RobSimpson, since I'm not the one who did it. ~YellowFives 13:19, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that you are new to wikipedia and you are probably confused. And I understand what you did on this edit: you reverted back to the edit by Backslash/Forwardslash, but you overlooked all the intermediate edits. This is just a friendly reminder to be careful when reverting, so this common mistake is avoided. --William S. Saturn (talk) 07:15, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your unfounded assumption is wrong. That is not at all what I did. I did not revert to any edit by anyone. I simply removed the content that RobSimpson added. I did not know why he was removing other content, but I didn't want to argue about a separate issue that I did not understand, and I figured if he was mistaken then someone else would fix it soon enough. I notice you still have made no effort to harass RobSimpson for his mistake. ~YellowFives 08:07, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

RobSimpson is not a new user, and he wasn't performing a revert action. --William S. Saturn (talk) 08:27, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's a pretty poor excuse, isn't it? RobSimpson is the one who made the mistake. How about you leave me alone now. ~YellowFives 08:49, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

3rr

You are in violation of the three revert rule at Anwar al-Awlaki. I've asked you to stop edit warring. Pls revert back. As I already indicated, I received clearance for this at the RS talk page. Furthermore, there is nothing defamatory that this adds beyond what is already stated by other RSs. Please yourself revert immediately.--Epeefleche (talk) 18:32, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Saying that he is "encouraging terrorist attacks" is defamatory, and can not be sourced from extremist sources. I will not revert. I have acted correctly in accordance with WP:BLP. See Talk:Anwar al-Awlaki#Extremist sources. ~YellowFives 18:40, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried reaching you in both edit summaries and on talk pages. To no avail. Rather than revert you, I've left word at the 3rr page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring#William_Hart_.28disambiguation.29 seeking help from others.--Epeefleche (talk) 18:48, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. NW (Talk) 21:19, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, NW. I will use it carefully. ~YellowFives 21:24, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Washington Times

It appears to me that the Washington Times was viewed as a RS by many people at the RS noticeboard (as recently as two weeks ago), so I'm reverting.--Epeefleche (talk) 00:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ANI Notifications

Dear YellowFives, I just wanted to drop you a kind note and let you know that you forgot to inform an involved editor in the thread that you opened on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. Don't worry! It's been take care of it. Just wanted to gently remind you to make sure to do so when and if you open a new ANI thread in the future. Thanks!!! Basket of Puppies 16:18, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I was informing Epeefleche via the WP:AN3 discussion when you left this message, but you are correct that I should have acted more quickly. ~YellowFives 16:43, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Triple Zero (000) Emergency

I have reverted your unconstructive edits as clearly you have not read WP:MOVE i suggest you ask me on my talk page next time before you perform such vandalism. I am very well aware of how to move a page as i have done it many many times before. As a smaller less consise article i had no reason to merge the history as it is easily found in the Page history as from were it was merged. Discuss next time before you attempt to revert changes. And if you feel so inclined to attempt to revert a move, i suggest you look at "What links here" and ensure there are no double redirects. Zoo Pro 00:42, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In regards to naming it is called "Triple Zero" that is what the Australian Government has deemed it to be called and thats what its website calls it "Triple Zero (000) Emergency" and as such it should be named accordingly. Zoo Pro 03:45, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have no interest in discussing my edits with you. I have many more important things on this project to be concerned about. I am a project coordinator and that takes up around 90% of my time on here, i will not get drawn into a discussion with novice editor.Zoo Pro 03:18, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In regards to the page: Phoenix (music producer)

I will make adjustments to this page. However the champ magazine site is not only a blog, but also a radio show in Toronto, Canada. The interview was a transcribed on the site. I will delete the material referencing Champ magazine. However the youtube account and link are official and the material on that account are distributed by rapper 50 cent. Also the wikipedia page for 50 cent's album "Before I Self Destruct" overtly credits my client, producer Phoenix, as the producer of the track Flight 187. The material regarding Phoenix and his linkage as the producer of that song is supported and has valid sources, right?

Open proxies

Do you have any reason to be using the same open proxies as Grawp? Brandon (talk) 04:26, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think I am using popular proxies. It's not just me and Grawp using them, is it? ~YellowFives 03:32, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While open proxies are technically usable, the use of them is not encouraged without good reason. Could you please explain why you are using them? NW (Talk) 11:25, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have a range of privacy concerns which, for me, are good enough reasons to use proxies. For one, my ISP uses targeted advertising. ~YellowFives 01:29, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

how do I move it from draft to published

Yellow Fives, Thanks for the welcome. How do I move my page from local draft to final published? thanks Zed38 (talk) 21:10, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You nominated Joseph Salama for the first AfD, but the article re-created with some additional sources. I've sent it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joseph Salama (2nd nomination), and you may wish to comment there DGG ( talk ) 19:46, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
