802.11n
Hello. I was looking at this edit. The changes that you were removing again: they were vandalism? Thanks. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 02:20, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, one was the addition of SPAM by a marketing group hired by Siemens. The other was bad edit by an anonymous user which substituted a templated chart and then made a edit which added the proprietary Super-G format (to an IEEE standards chart) and then proceeded to screwed up the formatting.

DMOZ is certainly not spam. Get a clue, dear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Frogfork (talk • contribs) 18:36, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

- And yet you are both wrong about the link. See WP:EL.
AfD nomination of 55 mph
An editor has nominated 55 mph, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/55 mph and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 16:14, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Edits to HDCP
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we must insist that you assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not on High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. - The edit in question was this one. Regards, --Rebroad (talk) 01:25, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- I respectfully disagree.
- a) This editor has been adding the same unsourced WP:NPOV WP:OR edit to numerous pages. Even after questioning he continued to bombast editors. I believe everyone tried to be helpful, but his response was to page blank three different users talk pages. After repeated activity same user has been currently blocked for disruptive editing.
- b) He then went off and created a bizarre page on free typers (since speedily deleted) which accused most wiki editors of making up stuff.
- c) Personally, contrary to his assessment, I have nothing against the concept of HDCP strippers -- as long as the information is NPOV and sourced. His references were just a link to three purported HDCP strippers.
- Thanks for the concern though, hopefully he will take the cooling off period to become a good wiki editor. -- KelleyCook (talk) 01:38, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Regarding the "anonymous vandal" nonsense
First of all, there are several people at Miami Dade College trying to maintain the integrity of the Interstate 75 article (such as it is) by repeatedly restoring the citation of a reliable source and the location supported by that reliable source. To refer to it as the action of a "serial vandal" violates several Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Before repeating your unfounded assumption of bad faith editing, I'd strongly recommend re-reading Wikipedia's policy regarding vandalism - including its definition of vandalism. Merely removing a valid citation is closer to that definition than restoring it per WP:V and WP:RS... and I'm sure that you would agree that name-calling is beneath you and should be avoided at all times. 147.70.244.60 (talk) 20:14, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
- Yawn, sorry I don't believe that numerous unconnected people are using Miami Dade's public computers to only anonymously edit one particular infobox on I-75. So I call a spade a spade. -- KelleyCook (talk) 20:22, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
- An editor with a racist remark - this answers a few things. Oh, by the way, I've replied to your threat on my talk page; similarly, the tag below equally applies to you. 147.70.242.40 (talk) 22:19, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- You would think that, wouldn't you. Please go study a bit more. To call a spade a spade refers to a shovel. Moreover you need to follow consensous. -- KelleyCook (talk) 13:59, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

- In case you haven't noticed, there hasn't been consensus, not since the original discussion initiated by SPUI about two years ago. In fact, before then, the consensus was in favor of "in Hialeah", according to TimL (see [1], section named "Obnoxious behavior by SPUI"). Regarding your last point: in many areas of the United States, the expression you made is considered racist, regardless of original meaning. Please keep this in consideration in the context of the Wikipedia readership. Thank you. 147.70.242.40 (talk) 14:53, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Wrong Way Concurrency
I have removed your unencyclopedic tag at Wrong-way concurrency. This topic is a well-established topic in road planning and as you can see, there are similar articles (road concurrency, List of wrong-way concurrencies, etc). I'll try to find some sources for citation from external organizations. Nimur (talk) 15:53, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
Comparison of CECB units
Regarding "No Prices allowed"...
According to WP:DIRECTORY:
"prices of a product should not be quoted in an article unless the price can be sourced and there is a justified reason for its mention"
The article cites a source for the price, the manufacturer suggested retail price, MSRP. And there is a justification for it since the article compares CECB. The usefulness of the article is in question without some way to compare relative cost of each unit, wouldn't you agree? Rewt241 (talk) 19:02, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

"Monkier"
Said "KelleyCook":
"Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:IEEE 802.11n. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism."
- Jeez, just trying to help. Or did you intend the subject heading to read "monkier" and not "moniker"? 24.6.66.193 (talk) 01:25, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Full-motion video merge
Why did you merge Full motion video with an article about full-motion video games? The two are indeed related in some cases, but in most they are completely different topics. The full-motion video article also covered the use of FMV in non FMV-centric games, which makes no sense given the new title. Green451 (talk) 17:11, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
About the iPhone issue
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to IPhone.
I never did that. Check the history of the page. I removed a very small bit. I didn't add noting at all. So please, before weighting in a question you don't understand, do your research. Thanks. Femmina (talk) 19:02, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, "do your research", would be a good credo for you to follow. -- KelleyCook (talk) 20:10, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Femmina RfC
Hello. I have finally gotten around to starting the RFC on Femmina's conduct. Your name is listed as one of the people who tried to resolve the dispute with him, so you need to sign this section within 48 hours (named Users certifying the basis for this dispute) for the RfC to proceed in earnest. Thanks. Groink (talk) 01:59, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
Wi-Fi Article
Hi. I fully support your actions on the Wi-Fi talk page. User CleanUpX has admitted being Spookee and a string of anonymous IPs, and is now attempting to out an unrelated editor who is blocked from wikipedia. Maybe a block is now in order. I have removed the outing from the talk page. He has also tried to link these editors to pageneno, and I wouldn't be suprised if he is actually some of the people he is arguing with, and also the user Randomized that "owns" the Electrical sensitivity page. --61.152.188.244 (talk) 07:51, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
