Creating a redirect, when deleting a seemingly valid article?

Hello, Vector; next time you delete an article (Great Fire Of London) for which there already is one with legitimate content (Great Fire of London), please create a redirect. This could avoid the situation we now have (both articles, one created by me under the impression it did not exist yet, with a merge request). Just a thought. Thanks. --Eptalon 21:32, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism this morning

Please block user:Lady888. I have removed all vandalism they have done. I think this user is working with user:QualityComptrol. S/he is marking many articles with RfD and not posting reasons. S/he also edited many of the vandalism edits of Lady888. Perhaps they should be blocked too. Thanks. · Tygartl1^·talk· 18:10, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Blocked 'Nordic Flame'

Hello Vector, If you see this user as a potential troublemaker, then the block is probably justified. My approach would have been a different one; let them contribute, and look at the contributions. Then, based on the contributions, do the block if necessary. You did the block, so it is up to you to deal with the situation, to the best of your knowledge; personally, I do not see a derogatory or offensive username there.

In theory, there are thousands of Scandinavians out there, that do not subscribe to NAzi ideology; and simply saying that the Nordic culture is great is no offense, imo --Eptalon 21:54, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Bureaucrat

Hello Dario. Really nice to hear you want to be a 'crat. I don't see myself being a 'crat in the next few months, but I hope that if the workload gets too large, I can assist as a 'crat in the future. See you soon!-- Tdxi ang 10:41, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

User:Nordic Flame

Can you tell me what's inappropriate about that name?--The Nordic Flame 21:11, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello Vector. I don't think the username is inappropriate. Flame means "fire", or what you call "fuoco". I hope that you can unblock this user, as I see no problem with his/her username. Thank you so much!-- Tdxi ang 12:39, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Admin general

Hello, Vector. :) Would you like to run for a second term, or let Tangotango take over as Esperanza's admin general? You see, Tangotango has been gone since February and it's sad.-- Tdxi ang 09:04, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

My time? If so, can you state so on the Esperanza talk page? Thanks!-- Tdxi ang 09:45, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

No problem; I already did it for you Tdxiang. --§ Alastor Moody _{(T + C)} 02:04, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

your request for bureaucratship

It looks like you're finally a bureaucrat yourself, since its May the first in UTC already, so congrats:-)

P.S. I don't know if other admins are aware of this now. --§ Alastor Moody _{(T + C)} 02:41, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Yup, you've now been promoted to bureaucrat. Bot flag requests should normally be given a few days in case there's any concerns from the community, offensive usernames you may want to leave for a while if you think they were only made so that we'd rename them. Any questions, just ask. Thanks, Archer7 - talk 11:23, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Yay, you're finally a bureaucrat! Thanks for letting me know about my mistake made. You can also comment on me at here. Cheers!-- Tdxi ang 08:56, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Grats on status change :) --Eptalon 13:33, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Sysop rights

Thank you very much, I hope to be of some help around, especially during evenings. Ciao, M7 11:47, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you as well!! Good to be on the team! - BrownE34 talk contribs 13:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Grazie!

Thanks for commenting, Vector! If there are problems which you think I should solve, you can comment again. Cheers!-- Tdxi ang 04:26, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Tdxiangbot

Hello, Vector. I am operating a bot. It is Tdxiangbot. Can you flag it? Thanks.-- Tdxi ang 03:31, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Bot flags

Hi Vector, when you flag bots, can you also add them to the list on WP:BOTS? That way we have a list of all of them and what they do. Also, I just realised I didn't get back to you about Tangobot, but it looks fine to me. You put in your summary that he's "unlikely to return to Simple" - was there some kind of incident, or were you just looking at his edits? Thanks, Archer7 - talk 15:09, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

re:tangobot on simple.wiki

Hey Vector, thanks for your message on en.wikipedia :) I'm sorry I took such a long time to get back to you--as you've probably already guessed, I was off Wikipedia for a while and wasn't able to check my talk page messages. However, I am back on now, and will be slowly doing some editing and programming. However, I'm not going to start running the interwiki bot just this moment--I'll get back to you once I'm ready to restart the bot. Cheers, Tangotango (talk) 02:28, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Having spoken to Tdxiang and Archer7 on IRC, it seems like there was a need for an interwiki bot, so Archer7 gave me back my bot flag and I have started operating Tangobot (doing interwiki links). Cheers, Tangotango (talk) 10:17, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Request for changing username

User:Niko have request a change in his username on Wikipedia:Simple talk. I thought I could bring it to your attention. Huji 07:28, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

I've done this now. Archer7 - talk 14:22, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

OK :) --vector ^_^ (talk) 17:17, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Could you help me out?

Could you help me out on simplifying several of the articles I've created cause I think some of the articles I contributed to needs some simplifying in the english. The articles are basically tropical cyclone related articles such as Hurricane Katrina, tropical cyclone, 2006 Atlantic hurricane season, and Subtropical Storm Nicole (2004). I'll tell you the rest of it later. thanx;) --§ Alastor Moody _{(T + C)} 08:44, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

That floating "Vector is watching you" uh... box thing in your userpage

Um... no offense, but that "Vector is watching you" box thing might annoy some people. Could you please place it somewhere else and make it not follow you? Panda Bear 22:37, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Administrator

I never knew you were an administrator now, Vector! Please accept my belated congratulations on achieving this position and thank you once again for all of the time you put into improving Simple English Wikipedia. Billz (Talk) 17:35, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

thank you very much I'm also a bureaucrat ;) --vector ^_^ (talk) 17:36, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

I never knew that either, so congratulations! Billz (Talk) 17:46, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Username change request

Hi, I was wondering if, when you get a chance, you could rename my account from its current name, RedHotHeat to Estoy Aquí so it's the same as my other Wikipedia names. Thanks - RedHotHeat 22:33, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello, Vector! Um, "Vector è un coglione" was re-created again. Is it OK, if you do not rename this user? Also, "M7 è un" coglione also came back. I understand that you moved them, so that it is not so offensive, but these ones are a bit of a problem. Cheers!-- Tdxi ang 09:05, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Bots

Can regular users have a bot? Panda Bear 17:20, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Jes of course! --vector ^_^ (talk) 05:46, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Good luck

Good luck with your love problems mate! If you want to talk, feel free to email me. Billz (Talk) 12:18, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
