I like wikipedia. But I can't make edits well!!!--Will476 (talk) 17:18, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

You'll do fine, once you read the links in your welcome message, and start making changes that would make a better encyclopedia, rather than joke edits. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 18:10, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

You piece of shit why u deleting the Kabaddi thing, wasteman go cry you cunt — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.7.210.248 (talk • contribs)

The only edit I've made to Kabaddi was to remove some shockingly badly-written original research, which doesn't belong in an encyclopedia article. Don't worry; if something important is reported on in reliable sources, I'm sure that it will be added by someone. By the way- I can tell that English is not your first or second language, so it might help you know know that the correct spelling is 'you,' not 'u,' and 'wasteman' is not a word that means anything in English. 'Go cry' is also pretty poorly written, and it isn't a phrase that an English-speaker would use as an insult. 'You piece of shit' is fine; I assume you copied it from elsewhere. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 17:10, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Wasteman is a common term in United Kingdom "grime" music, and the Urban Dictionary defines it as "someone who does nothin with their life". Without having witnessed any of 82s other contributions it gives the impression that someone may have accidentally given them the wrong tape to learn English from.

This FisherQueen dude is probably a complete fag. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheresOnlyOneNeilSimpson (talk • contribs)

I'm not a fag, I'm a dyke. If you aren't able to read, either instructions or user pages, you probably won't enjoy Wikipedia very much, and should try a different web site. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:41, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Hello

Hello FisherQueen, do you have an e-mail? I´d like to talk with you. thks Senderso (talk) 22:58, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

No need to email; I'm right here. Your article looked so much like an advertisement that at first, people wanted to simply delete it, as we do with hundreds of ads every day. But I found a decent source that helped show that this person might be notable, and cleaned up some of the promotional language for you. Now several people are working on trying to improve the article. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:09, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Newbie love!

Hi!

Just wanted to say thank you for the welcome message (even the generic template was a nice warm & fuzzy — my talk page was empty for a full two weeks!) and the heads-up on the American Civil War task-force. Have you thought about signing up to be a Wiki Guide?

Also, <fangirl>: I recently did a little mini-project studying women on Wikipedia with Latoya Peterson of Jezebel and Racialicious, and you were one of the editors we looked at. We are both of the firm opinion that you rock super hardcore :) </fangirl> --Accedie (talk) 18:26, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! I don't want to do anything nearly as 'official' as being a WikiGuide... I'm very content just quietly looking at new users' edits while I eat my supper, helping those who need help, welcoming those who need welcomed, and smacking down those who need to be smacked down. I'm tremendously flattered that I was a subject of your study... did you publish your project anywhere? I'd be curious to read it... -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:15, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
It's in Latoya's hands now... last time I talked to her, she was excited about cleaning up some of the slides and publishing them online soon. I'll be sure to let you know if/when/where that happens! --Accedie (talk) 16:20, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Heh, this is fun. FisherQueen was one of the first to welcome me on wiki, and Accedie sits two desks over from me. Life is small and weird. I enjoy. (And they found you on their own... I was surprised when I heard that they had used you as a part of the study!) Philippe Beaudette, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 22:45, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
You know Accedie in RL? That is fun. I picture you as Keanu Reeves and Cate Blanchett. Don't ask me why. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 00:10, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
OK, but let's be realistic... She's gonna have to be Keanu. I'm nowhere near man enough to pull that off. Philippe Beaudette, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 19:35, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

An explanation of his defense

edit

I'm gay and Jewish, yet I find your comments on the self-proclaimed racist's page offensive. If this was a public forum, you'd be free to make them. However, I'm concerned that attacking editors in this regard could ultimately turn other people/editors off to wikipedia, and that as an admin your actions (like it or not) act as an example to others on here. The met project has had a devil of a time in trying to conform with wikipedia standards, showing any coordinated improvements, and maintaining any corp of editors as long as I've been on here. He was actually trying to make improvements in the long-neglected climate regime articles, so not all of his actions were bad. Last time I checked, it's not easy to become an administrator, and I'm sure it can get frustrating, just like editing can. The problem is, anyone can view talk page comments. Innocent bystanders out there might think that this encyclopedia condones personal attacks on others/incivility per the comments made on that talk page. Is persecution really the answer anyway? Either way, I think those comments should be erased/hidden at some point in the near future. This can't be the environment we want to exist within on wikipedia. Sorry about not posting the note on your page...I figured you'd see them on his page. Thegreatdr (talk) 02:19, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

A blast from the past

I was just reading over some old archives and pulled up User:KieferSkunk/Zicraccozian, an archive of a conversation you had with a user that I'd blocked some time back. Thought you might get a kick out of the reminder. :) — KieferSkunk (talk) — 20:23, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Mind weighing in?

edit

FisherQueen, I've seen you at LGBT-related articles, and want to know if you wouldn't mind weighing in on this: Talk:Heterosexualization#Not only an LGBT issue. I posted a message about it at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject LGBT studies, which you may have seen already, but I hardly get any help from there or other WikiProjects these days. So part of my approach these days is to go to relevant editors individually and hope they weigh in. Flyer22 (talk) 18:31, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

This... is the first time I have ever heard the word Heterosexualization. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:10, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Have you heard of the word Heterosexism? It might be better to just redirect this article there, as the Heterosexism article is better put together and is covering the same thing. Flyer22 (talk) 00:48, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
Redirecting it to Heteronormativity is likely the better option. Flyer22 (talk) 01:08, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Request to be blocked

I think he's getting the message now. I've showered him with policies and he's agreeing to stick to them. I've just asked what editing he'll be doing if unblocked, but I'm off to bed, so I'm passing the buck.... Peridon (talk) 22:16, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Hello FisherQueen! Here's a story as old as this wiki. Completely non-notable person creates as article about themselves. Article is tagged with {{db-person}}. Person, now as an IP, continually removes the tag. Tagging editor doesn't want to commit a 3RR violation, so contacts the admin who blocked the "real" creator. Tagging editor knows that no amount of tag removal or editing the article will make the person notable. What to do? Doc talk 08:52, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

No problem; I would have deleted it already if I'd noticed it. Should have checked his contribution history when I blocked him. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 10:36, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
Thanks again! Out of the 3.6 million and rapidly growing # of articles, that was one that we could certainly do without. Cheers :> Doc talk 10:46, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Given the user's apology, I unblocked him a little early. Grandmasterka 16:56, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

That's fine. The whole thing was kind of ridiculous anyway. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 11:18, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

need your explanation.

Hello, I need your authorative statement as an administrator about a situation in other language wikipedia. The thing is that in March, 2011 we took a discussion in my talk page. Look here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:46.109.82.163. Based on your comment there, I took an action deleting one registry in other language wikipedia - some advice in my IP(now it's different) talk page made by other user. That was the reason why I joined in edit war with several persons which undid my page blanking, 2 of them gave me warnings only because of material removal in my talk page, later those "warnings" were included by me in my content removal. My IP got blocked from editing by an administrator because of that. Yes, I admit, I changed my ip several times only to prove my holy truth until my talk page was fully protected from edits. I know the thing is just ridicilous, but situation is a matter of princips. Now please tell me, these actions from administrator and users undoing my edits doesn't fit for your statement in my mentioned talk page, right? Does it makes difference that this precedent occurs in other language wikipedia? I preffer that rules(I am too lazy to search needed section) are the same. Thanks.46.109.58.181 (talk) 20:57, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

The various wikipedias are separate web sites; I don't know what the rules are at any wiki but the English wikipedia. In general, though, it's never a good idea to avoid a block, and better to appeal it. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 11:20, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
