Hi yes people seemed to be away!! I asked many people and couldn't get hold of anyone who was online!! Its odd that everybody seems to have returned at once!! Thanks for your note on adminship, at times I really need more tools to do things more efficiently but there will be too many editors who will try to make me look like a bad editor. They'll hound me for my lack of consistency with edit summaries for a start you name it, depsite the fact I am undertaking an enormous task of template/category structuing where edit summaries every time are an extra burden when I'm trying to perform the task as quickly as possible. I try to do things quickly and focus my mind on the task I often forget to leave a summart. Perhaps I should set my preferences to prompt so I get a "100%" edit summary[[User:Blofeld of SPECTRE| <span style="border:1px solid blue;padding:1px;"> <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">'''''♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦'''''</font>]]</span> <sup>[[User talk:Blofeld of SPECTRE| <font size="-4"><font color="Black">'''$1,000,000?'''</font></font color> ]]</sup> 18:15, 28 July 2008 (UTC) |

Uploading
What time do you plan on beginning. Probably this evening when you get home? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 14:05, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
- That's quite possible, but it looks like I'll be at work quite late tonight. I'll do my best to dig out the machine tonight and code up the additions I need to make to the bot, and worst comes to the worst, I'll upload sometime tomorrow morning. My deadlines always ahve a tendency to drift at the moment because of work - very hectic, this discovering new things Fritzpoll (talk) 14:31, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
I thought you would have been out enjoying the sun today, thats where I've been. My shoulders are burning a little from the sun. It was quite intense this afternoon. Probably the same in Bristol ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:01, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- By and large I was! But did some editing while my dinner cooked Fritzpoll (talk) 20:03, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Hey I made some templates for El Salvador at Wikipedia:WikiProject El Salvador/Department templates. El Salvador has to be one of the poorest covered countries on here. At least we now have the municipalities connected ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 21:28, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Hallo
for you naerii 20:10, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
POV in Indian articles
Hi there is an IP address probably from India which is wreaking havoc with some of the Bollywood articles. See his contributions. He persistently keeps adding POV to an article or glorifying an actor or film further than they or it actually is. It is a major nuisance for the editors on here who work on Indian cinema articles to have to keep reverting him day in day out just to maintain some sense of article neutrality. He has been warned many times. Could you please warn him and try to make him aware of wikipedias neutrality and why his edits which are intent on putting POV or glorifying the subject of the article unnecesarily may be construed as agains tpolicy and therfore vandalism. Its doing my nut it keeoing track of him. User:Shshshsh (Shahid) raise my awarenss of it initially and other editors such as totalfilmi99 have to keep reverting him e.g here. Should he be blocked do you think? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 09:11, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Why is it admin are never here when you need them most!!! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:41, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Notability - Places
As a member of WP:GEOGRAPHY, I would appreciate your views on the discussion I've started at Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(Geographic_locations)#Using_an_Atlas_as_a_source_for_notability Thanks AndrewRT(Talk) 13:36, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
A hunble request
I've been thinking carefully over how to approach this, partly because I respect your opinion and trust your judgement, but also because I have to play by the rules. To come to the point, I've been strongly encouraged to request the tools in order to further help and support the project. As a result, I owe it to you out of common courtesy to let you know, as the last thing I wanted was for it to be a surprise to you. I would also ask that whatever happens, if you'll be happy to continue our mentoring agreement in the future. You've done more than you know for me, and I hope to be able to learn more from you whatever the future holds. Respectfully with thanks, Gazimoff(mentor/review) 11:11, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- I will be happy to continue with the mentoring if you think it is necessary, regardless of your usergroup. I'm glad that you've found it helpful so far, and can only say that were it not for my lack of Wikipedia-space clarity, I would happily offer you a co-nom. I'll go watchlist the page.... Good luck. Fritzpoll (talk) 12:09, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Re: Huggle
Gurch - when you first left, I offered to take over the maintenance of Huggle when the issue was raised at one of the noticeboards. I then promptly lost access to my dev machine for a bit, and now have the access back. But I'm not sure if you're back or not, so can you give me a ping so that I know if I should start work on the bugs or not. Cheers Fritzpoll (talk) 15:00, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- See Huggle's Google Code page. You can get the source from there; if you don't already have a Google account, create one, then send me the e-mail address so you can be added to the project members, which gives you SVN commit access -- Gurch (talk) 15:08, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi yes people seemed to be away!! I asked many people and couldn't get hold of anyone who was online!! Its odd that everybody seems to have returned at once!! Thanks for your note on adminship, at times I really need more tools to do things more efficiently but there will be too many editors who will try to make me look like a bad editor. They'll hound me for my lack of consistency with edit summaries for a start you name it, depsite the fact I am undertaking an enormous task of template/category structuing where edit summaries every time are an extra burden when I'm trying to perform the task as quickly as possible.

Can anything be done to stop this craziness?
In my time here, I don't believe I've ever been accused of incivility. Can anything be done to stop OR's dragging my name through the mud with these accusations? S. Dean Jameson 21:19, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- Just let it go. No-one else appears to agree, no sanction has been sought or applied. If you just ignore it, it will go away. Fritzpoll (talk) 21:20, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- Will do. It's just frustrating because this is the second time I've had my name dragged through the mud of a notice board for no reason. Yesterday (or the day before) an anon IP "reported" me to ANI for rolling back his edits to my talkpage, after I'd told him I didn't wish to communicate with him further. Now this? It's just a bit frustrating, as I'm sure you understand. But I'll just ignore it, and hope it goes away quickly. S. Dean Jameson 21:37, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- I'm sure it will end pretty fast. These things tend to escalate less if you don't respond to them as frequently - it gives everyone a chance to cool down between comments. Fritzpoll (talk) 21:42, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
