Welcome to my talk page. Feel free to leave me messages or even flaming bags filled with poo.

At least 100 years ago I archived a few years worth of people's comments. And then I did it again! I'll keep doing it, over and over, as many times as I want to, as hard as I can. Then I gave up and started letting a bot do it.

Hello SchmuckyTheCat. This is Eric from Microsoft following up on the categorization request for the article Microsoft. Specifically, while the category merge request is under consideration, could you update the article to include Category:Cloud computing providers?

Thanks for your work! Ebattalio (talk) 22:20, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for updating the topic! Ebattalio (talk) 17:09, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Back in 2005, you participated in an AFD discussion this article. It was kept, but I have renominated it for deletion. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Very Secret Diaries (2nd nomination). Robofish (talk) 01:12, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings! Direct-controlled municipality is not proper subject for a disambiguation page, because the various entities listed on the page are all the same kind of thing (a governmental subdivision), and therefore are not ambiguous in the sense that a link to this page would be incorrect. Disambiguation here is no more correct than disambiguation of Soft drink to a list of soft drinks. Cheers! bd2412 T 21:44, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's not quite an actual disambiguation page even though I put the dab template on it. Everything that was "in common" for all the countries was left intact in the article. Everything that was unique was moved. The real growth potential of the article was not "in common". In the case of the Korea's, there already was a split article which meant the Direct controlled municipality article was a WP:FORK. SchmuckyTheCat (talk)

Soft drink and List of soft drinks both exist. Note that the list article doesn't have large tables and unique info to the products and the topic article doesn't contain a list. The DCM article had prose, tables, and lists in a jumbled mess. Splitting this was an editorial move. SchmuckyTheCat (talk)

Oh, I see by your edits the objection isn't about the split, it was about calling it a dab page. Fair enough, and no objection from me. SchmuckyTheCat (talk)

Yes, it is just the dab tag. Putting that on the page lights up every link to the page as an error requiring repair, even if it isn't. Cheers! bd2412 T 16:02, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hopefully you are keeping a good watch on his edits, which often change "mainland China" to "China" when HK/Macau or TW are involved, such as here. This user clearly seems intent on pushing an anti-PRC POV, as within that edit, he, without justification, removed a simplified term. By the way, I chose not to revert the gov't type at the HK page, because: 1) it feels I am talking to a deaf user, who does not employ edit summaries. 2) need to keep my WikiStress down anyway --HXL's Roundtable and Record 21:57, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is easier to track his edits as a logged in user than as an IP address. I suspect he is one of the IP editors who are also problematic. Good on you for keeping stress low! SchmuckyTheCat (talk)

Hello, SchmuckyTheCat. You have new messages at Diego Grez's talk page.

Hello, I invite you to participate in the discussion on Diego's talk page about locating either a free version of that file or proof that it should be free. I also agree that it should be free but cannot locate the proof. Sincerely, Veriss (talk) 19:22, 25 March 2011 (UTC) Veriss (talk) 19:22, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Please take a look at the Dragonair destinations. All destinations within mainland China in that table are labelled as pertaining to the People's Republic of China, not to simply China. If you think this is a mere coincidence, please let me know.--Jetstreamer (talk) 22:36, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

China was just taken as an example. Other could be the Democratic Republic of the Congo.--Jetstreamer (talk) 12:46, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unsure what else to do with this vaguely threatening email: <email removed per Wikipedia:EMAIL#Abuse_handling>

Schmucky, you're really not supposed to post someone's email without permission per this. As for what to do, I would really consider contacting ArbCom about this, especially since the user you mentioned was previously the subject of a case. And I would also redact the email above. Heimstern Läufer (talk) 04:29, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the email per the quoted guidelines, and will remove it from this page's history. PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 04:43, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

For the last time, leave me alone. I've previously banned you from contacting me outside of Wikipedia as I want nothing to do with you, your antics, or attempts to create drama for the lulz. Move on. --Tothwolf (talk) 20:53, 27 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
