Hello Chenzw, as promised, I fixed the new main page; it now expects the articles to be numbered 0 to one less than the number of articles in the Category Selected articles. --Eptalon (talk) 15:19, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

PISG

Hey,

Ok, I finally got somewhere that my school Internet is remotely stable! Could you either pop on IRC or drop me a line if you are free so that we can continue? Or is it simply configuring PISG now?

Cheers,

Your Bot

Hi Chenzw. PeterSymonds blocked your bot, because it make changes to archived adminships. Please fix your bot. I reverted the changes two times. Regards, Barras (talk) 16:44, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The problem has been resolved (and all edits reverted). It won't happen again. :P Chenzw  Talk  01:07, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Richard Relucio

As far as I'm concerned this user is up for block by any admin for even the slightest vio of the rules. I've allowed him to edit against my better judgement. I'd ask all admins to watch him and to block indef for even the slightest vio of the rules. He has created much disruption on enWP and I'm not willing to let that happen here. Take care dude! fr33kman talk 01:44, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Greeks in Finland

I dont understand where you saw a copyright violation. The text related to the hyperlink is original and not related to the wikipedia contennt. Thanks. Please restore the page. Makrygiannis74 (talk) 04:29, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The hyperlink points to another language version of the article. I do not understand what you mean. I deleted the article because it did not seem to have any meaningful/important content (or is not expressed properly) and had text that was copied and pasted from the Ovi Magazine website.

MOS

Hi Chenzw, as a regular contributor, I´m asking if you could pop over to Simple Talk and discuss the usefulness of our MOS while both the PGA and PVGA process doesn´t even mention using it. Cheers! The Rambling Man on tour (talk) 18:46, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Damn, beat me to it. I was too busy trying to figure out the percentage. Now I remember there was a tool on the talk page! Kennedy 11:47, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Don't worry, there will be more over time! :) Chenzw  Talk  11:49, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

IP hopping

Looks like we've got ourselves an IP hopping vandal :P. Razorflame 13:49, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is registered to a school district. If the vandal strikes again both addresses will (and should) be blocked. Chenzw  Talk  13:53, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I updated the warning you gave the .53 address and changed it from a test1 to a test3 edit, considering that it is an IP hopping vandal. Cheers, Razorflame 14:03, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Icon code?

Hey, could you add the icon code to MediaWiki:Common.js? Then I can get started on doing the second icon overhaul. Cheers, obentomusubi 16:31, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest you wait a while more for responses. The only people that have responded to the proposal so far are DefenseSupportParty and me. Chenzw  Talk  06:35, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Your Bot

Sorry, I've been a bit inactive, but yes I have run into some problems with pywikipedia. I no longer have enough time, as of right now, to deal with it. So, I'd like to put my request on hold for right now. Cheers, RockManQ (talk) 00:22, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Hello and thank you for reverting vandalism to my page. I think this vandalism is pretty funny, but that's just me and I know that other people might be offended. It's still vandalism. LovesMacs (talk) 01:41, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No problem! :) Chenzw  Talk  01:42, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you delete my page - that was the most horrible thing you could do!--Khadija (talk) 14:15, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quick Question

Hey Chenzw,

An IP has made some good edits, but previously had warnings from July 2008. I've removed the warnings and added a welcome instead - is this the norm?

Cheers,

Goblin 12:33, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure. It probably doesn't matter whether the warnings are removed or not, they are still in the page history anyway. Chenzw  Talk  12:36, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeh that's what I figured. Anyway, if i'm wrong someone can just come and revert me ;) Oh, and PING :P. Goblin 12:37, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Welcome

Hi Chenzw, thanks for the welcome! That was quick ;) NotGiven 13:03, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Two IPs

Hi there. I've tracked down 79.85.113.211 and 79.118.142.78 and found that they are both open proxies, so a 1 year block on them is justifiable. They are wide open on ports 80 and 225. Cheers, Razorflame 13:50, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Doing... Chenzw  Talk  14:09, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done (for now) - Are you sure they are open on 80 and 225? I can't find any open ports. As I will be going off after this, you may want to post your request on AN. Chenzw  Talk  14:14, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I've confirmed that they are open on ports 80 and 225 using my handy open proxy checker program :). Cheers, Razorflame 14:37, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Any chance you could move the deleted version into my userspace so I could improve it? Thanks. JoshuaZ (talk) 19:50, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AWB CheckList

How does one get on the list for this project? OrangeDog (talk) 20:41, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Are you going to do a search and replace operation? (based on what is going on at EN) If yes, I will grant access since you are an established editor over there. Chenzw  Talk  11:52, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, mostly typo and cleanup stuff. Thanks. OrangeDog (talk) 14:44, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Done. Best, Chenzw  Talk  14:53, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
