Vandalism

From my user page: Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Indian Creek School, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.Bond Head 20:49, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

• The History page clearly shows two vandal IPs causing the vandalism. The second IP caused by rollback to be blocked, leaving the majority of the swears in the next. Im not sure why you are warning me for it, as 209.60.233.98 is the active vandal, and 67.172.199.75 the blocking vandal. All my own edit did was removing the 209.60.233.98 vandalism, which left 67.172.199.75 vandalism in. --Excirial ^{(Talk,Contribs)} 05:54, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

• OK. My mistake. When correcting vandalism, instead of deleting or changing inappropriate text, you may want to just roll the page back to the last good version. Best, Bond Head 13:30, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

• Actually, im using Lupins non administrator rollback to revert vandalism. An advantage of this is that it reverts each and every edit of the vandalising IP, up to the edit of a different user. Its a lot faster then manually searching the last good revision, but when two IPs vandalise with no good version in between, it leaves the vandalism of the previous IP in the text. Pretty rare though, but annoying when it happends :) --Excirial ^{(Talk,Contribs)} 17:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

talk pages

From WP:TPNO, "Do not use the talk page as a forum or soapbox for discussing the topic. The talk page is for discussing improving the article." It seemed to me that the IP had an Ax to grind about the fed executing illicit transactions or accounting more than anything else, but I do not see any relevance to the article, and that text takes up 10k plus lots of scroll room on the page. Look, it is not the biggest deal, but I don't see how exactly is you explaining that the fed is not a scam to an IP going to help an article on the debt?

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Disambiguation link notification for March 29

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kenneth I. Juster, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Economic Council. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
