April 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Sobig (computer worm) has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): big@boss.com. It appears that you inserted an e-mail address to Sobig (computer worm). Wikipedia pages should not contain personal information. For more information, please read Wikipedia:Biography of Living People, specifically the section about personal information.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 10:07, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Fixing stuff

Many thanks for trying to help fix stuff around Wikipedia. However, you're actually managing to be a bit unhelpful whilst you're doing it. For instance, please don't remove commented advice addressed to other editors (as you did here). There's no need to feed trolls by following admins around and putting templates on talk pages (as you did here). And please don't mess with the format of other peoples' talk pages (as you did here).

There's plenty of jobs that need doing at Wikipedia, but these ones aren't one of them. Thanks. ⇦REDVERS⇨ Say NO to Commons bullying 10:55, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

By the way, what is your relationship to DailyWikiEditor (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), DailyWikiHelp (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and Drivewiki (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)? ⇦REDVERS⇨ Say NO to Commons bullying 11:01, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Who are they? Why do you ask this question?--Small Boss (talk) 11:10, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Autoconfirmed

{{helpme}} Why can't i edit semi-protected pages? I've been on wikipedia for 4 days and i have more than 50 edits.

You registered on April 13, which is only three days ago. –Turian (talk) 06:11, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

But April 13 counts, dosen't it? So now i should be an autoconfirmed user.--Small Boss (talk) 06:13, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Please stop

I don't know why you're making unasked for minor formatting changes to other peoples' talk pages (as here) but please stop. These changes cause the orange "you have new messages" bar to appear for no reason and are liable to annoy. ⇦REDVERS⇨ Say NO to Commons bullying 07:15, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigation

Please see this. Beyond My Ken (talk) 08:32, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

I'm not a sock puppet! See here.--Small Boss (talk) 09:59, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

WP:RPP

Hi there. I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do or practice on, but please don't fiddle with the templates on this page, or the related pages. They are very important, highly visible pages. If you want to practice formatting, please use the sandbox, or create a page in your userspace. Thanks. GedUK  11:11, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Popular Rewards

The article Popular Rewards has been proposed for deletion. The proposed-deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Beyond My Ken (talk) 12:07, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to the Novels WikiProject

Hi, and welcome to the Novels WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to fiction books, often referred to as "novels".

A few features that you might find helpful:

• Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
• The announcement and open task box is updated quite regularly. You can watch it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WikiProject Novels announcements}} there.
  While you are updating your userpage, don't forget our userbox {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels/Outreach/User WPNOVELS}}.
• Important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
• Planning on starting some new articles? Our article structure guidelines / template outlines some things to include.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the coordinators or an experienced member of the project; we will be happy to assist in any way we can. Again, welcome, and we look forward to seeing you around! —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 19:19, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
