Welcome! edit

Hi, Dante26, Welcome to Wikipedia!  

I hope you enjoy the encyclopaedia and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page.


Additional tips edit

Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:

  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
  • You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
  • If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Good luck. edit

Mariana hill edit

Dante, just letting you know that I've nominated your article Mariana hill for deletion as a blatant copyvio because it appears you have copy and pasted the biography and trivia straight from IMDb. I also have concerns about a lot of your other articles and edits, which frankly, appear to be hoaxes or at best, unverifiable. Please try to cite references in your articles. Sarah Ewart 13:57, 28 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Rudy Bond edit

As above, I have also nominated your article Rudy Bond for deletion as a blatant copyvio because you appear to have copy and pasted it from IMDb. Please cease posting content you have lifted from other websites. This is illegal and against Wikipedia policy. Sarah Ewart 22:24, 28 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Gianni Russo edit

Ditto your article on Gianni Russo appears to be a blatant copyvio copy and pasted from IMDb. Please do not post content lifted from other sources. Sarah Ewart 22:35, 28 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Morgana King edit

Ditto your article on Morgana King. Sarah Ewart 22:43, 28 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Joe Spinell edit

The text you added to Joe Spinell was lifted from IMDb and has been removed. Sarah Ewart 00:24, 29 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Pasquale Cagiano edit

And Pasquale Cagiano, another copyvio. If there are other copyvios you remember posting, it would be nice if you would remove them yourself. Sarah Ewart 21:31, 29 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Collateral damage to AOL users--205.188.117.8 14:24, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • No seriously, this user seems to be pulling a denial of service type thing, a half dozen AOL IPs seem to be blocked--205.188.117.8 14:28, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

I've already unblocked him, but it looks like the autoban has already done its damage. Ashibaka tock 17:15, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • Seems to have also caught a few 64.x.x.x's--64.12.116.66 18:06, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Because of the asinine way the autoblock works, I don't know the exact IPs I've autoblocked until someone tells me them. So, "64.xxxxxxx" isn't helpful :( Ashibaka tock 18:14, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

re Your block edit

I don't know much about the "fulco scorvella" issue. My problem with you is your persistent insertion of copyright material you lifted from other websites. You persisted in doing this even after you were repeatedly told what you were doing was illegal and against Wikipedia policy. You also persisted in inserting phoney "Italianised" names into random articles and ignored all requests for you to provide sources. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 04:42, 13 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

This blocked user should not be unblocked. However Administrators: should cleanup his long trail of IP autoblocks, since he's an AOL denial of service vandal

[[Category:Requests for unblock|{{PAGENAME}}]] GOD DAMN IT! it's doing it again, this account clearly exists for no reason other than causing AOL autoblocks, this account is a DENIAL OF SERVICE attack, and should be blocked indefintily, or better, deleted--205.188.117.8 16:06, 14 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • I'm not requesting that the name be unblocked, I suggesting that somebody clean up the AOL IP ranges that his little Denial Of Service Attack has gotton autoblocked, nameley most of the 205.x.x.x range, and most of the 64.x.x.x range--205.188.117.8 16:41, 14 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Denial Of Service Attack edit

  • It's doing it again, this is one of the most persistant denial of service vandals I've ever seen, it's weeks later, and it's still getting entire AOL ranges autoblocked, this can't be accidental, please cleanup the wave of AOL ip autoblocks caused by this account, and please warn off the anon ip that keeps blanking this message--152.163.100.134 01:10, 21 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Unblocking edit

only dante26 can request an unblock with the {{unblock}} template. 151.203.10.94
