Welcome to my user talk page!

Please do all of the following:
  • Always link to the text, image, or edit you want to discuss. When linking to an image, use a colon. For example, "[[:Image:Example.jpg]]" produces "Image:Example.jpg".
  • Don't forget to provide a proper Edit Summary for each and every edit, and a proper signature for each and every post to a talk page or notice board. I may revert edits that do not have such features, rather than respond to them.
  • Reply to interactive messages at the location of the original topic to not scatter talk all around, fracturing the discussion. I do have nearly all pages I have posted to recently on my Watchlist. If I missed a comment of yours, please drop me a short reminder with a link.
  • Respect my babel boxes.
  • If you're copying files from another project to Wikimedia Commons, be sure to use the CommonsHelper.
  • If your text or image is lacking source, license, or permission, fix that instead of asking here what is wrong. There should be a message on your talk page explaining things in detail. Apologies for having to be so clear if this message is not related to the matter you would like to address.
  • Post if you want to reach me, or reply to a post below via the edit link above that post.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Tag the aurora

I think it's time. Want to zap the aurora? [1] -- SEWilco (talk) 01:35, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, please participate in the discussion at Commons:Commons:Deletion requests/Image:AuroraBorealisFromSpace.JPG. Thanks!   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 01:45, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: 142.205.212.203 at AIV

The problem seems more complex than simple "This guy is teh gay HAHAHAH" vandalism, and so should probably be dealt with at WP:ANI instead. Please file a report there, with a detailed account of the problem and diffs of the problematic edits. Thanks! --Jayron32.talk.contribs 02:02, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the advice!   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 11:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding User talk:71.123.127.194

I have been recentchanges patrolling, and the user I have mentioned seems to be a good faith editor. Please, if you are going to give warnings, start at #1 and work your way up. I, like the user, am 'confused' and will remove your warning. Diff: [2] -- Casmith_789 (talk) 16:16, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The person using that IP Address, although it appears to make good faith edits at times, also appears to be deleting content as in this edit, promoting some sort of pro-Buddhist POV (excluding other religions as in this other edit), and adding unsourced info as in this third edit, all without discussing in talk pages and almost all without Edit Summaries. Such actions are IMHO damaging to Wikipedia.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 18:17, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Achievements of Sachin Tendulkar

Hello Jeff,
Thanks for removing that redundant section, which got added by me without my notice. My bad! I am now wondering by looking at the diff of my edit. :) What a blunder. Thanks again and have a nice day! - KNM Talk 21:23, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. No harm done, just some extra info in the article for a while.  :)   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 21:26, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so you added the notability warning for the show; I'm not really a rabid fan nor a critic of the show, but I think the variety show's notable enough, as evidenced by its IMDB profile, adding to the fact that the PhilSports Arena stampede incident involving the show was listed in Guinness World Records... Blake Gripling (talk) 23:50, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your input. Please feel free to add any applicable references to that article. Thanks again!   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 18:20, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. You placed a warning on my talk page User_talk:JimBobUSA. Care to explain why? Jim (talk) 20:59, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. You called another user "a sociopath".   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 21:02, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Nope...you did not read the link. Another user (Admin) called me a sociopath...follow the link ;)Jim (talk) 21:04, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Here ya go: Wikipedia:Wikiquette_alerts#User:JimBobUSA "My good faith is long since exhausted. The guy is a sociopath. He has repeatedly deleted referenced content. He just did it again. See also this, for a worse example. They are just the two most recent cases. Grant | Talk 12:23, 28 January 2008 (UTC)" Jim (talk) 21:08, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I see, when making this edit, you neither put quotes around nor directly attributed "The guy is a sociopath". OTOH, you also called many warnings "frivolous".   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 21:12, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So...it must be alright for "admin" to call others names, eh?  ;) FYI...those frivolous warnings were placed there by the same "admin" who is calling me names for removing his false references, OR and other dubious materials from an article. Jim (talk) 21:23, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anyway...is it alright to move your "warning" that you gave me, for copy/pasting the insult that was directed at me? Mistakes do happen ;) Jim (talk) 22:44, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed that (and your comment upon it, because your comment would have looked silly by itself). Sorry for the inconvenience. Please be more careful with attribution in the future, so that others don't make the same mistake. Thanks!   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 04:24, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, kind Sir! Jim (talk) 11:19, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome, Sir!   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 12:44, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that you made some edits to my Yankees fan userbox over the past month. Please do not modify userboxes within a specific user's userspace. You can create your own userboxes if you do not like the ones that other users have created. Also, I know that the logo looks very nice but copyrighted logos are not allowed to be used in userboxes. Thank you - cgilbert(talk|contribs) 23:25, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but it's not copyrighted any more - the copyright ran out 27 years after 1913, or perhaps 27 years after that if it was renewed timely.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 01:52, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I know you're busy here, but just to remind you of this. No big issue, just a talking thing. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 01:57, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
