Ya know, listening to Wagner and such. Eww... Rangers. We ought to buy that place and have it knocked down;)--Sycamore (Talk) 17:45, April 26, 2012 (UTC)

I think "I'm not a racist, but..." is probably finished. Can I just remove that construction thing from the top? --C₂H₆O (talk) 13:05, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

edit Greetings!

Thought I'd let you know about a new feature we've got on recent changes, called "patrolled edits". If you do any cleanup on RC, patrolling can be a useful tool. Essentially, it "approves" edits by any users who are not in the auto-patrolled user group (IPs, newbies, etc). It makes it much easier for multiple people to sweep up, as they don't have to keep checking the same pages. You can read about it here. Also, if you'd like to patrol multiple edits at a time, or just patrol edits directly from RC, I've got a special javascript which I whipped up recently. You can use it by putting importScript( "User:Bizzeebeever/scripts/patrol.js" ) into either your uncyclopedia.js or monobook.js, depending on which theme you use.

If you already knew about it, then please disregard this message. Cheers. ~ BB ~ (T) Icons-flag-us.pngMon, May 14 '12 0:03 (UTC)

I only understand a small part of that. Is the general idea that it's one of MrN9000's schemes of madness that don't really do anything?;)--Sycamore (Talk) 08:54, May 14, 2012 (UTC)
Actually, it's MrN's, mine, and Puppy's. It's a standard feature of MediaWiki that was only turned on recently. And it would actually do something, if people used it.
Here, let me give you an example. Let's say some IP or new user comes along and, over the course of five edits, sweeps up the punctuation and spelling on Canada. You go to investigate, see that they are legitimate edits, and then mark them as "patrolled". What happens? Well, the little red "!" will disappear from those edits on Special:RecentChanges. That way, I, Mattsnow, an admin, or whomever, can see that the edit has been approved by somebody else, so multiple people don't have to waste time checking the same edits.
Patrolled edits can also be filtered out from Special:RecentChanges. Just click the link near the top of the page that says "hide patrolled edits".
My javascript simply enhances Special:RecentChanges to allow you to patrol grouped changes, all at once (the usual method only allows you to patrol one change at a time), or to patrol a change without looking at it (as you might do for an edit to a user talk page). ~ BB ~ (T) Icons-flag-us.pngMon, May 14 '12 13:54 (UTC)
ok - I think I get that, I'll try and use it to make recent changes more clear:0)--Sycamore (Talk) 21:47, May 14, 2012 (UTC)

edit Article to be added to QVFD

Hey. Could you please add Political correctness FAQ to QVFD. That page is locked to all but auto-confirmed, and the article is not original material. While I cannot confirm the original of this, as it has been copy-pasted in a significant number of areas, it may be a copyright at the worst, and is a repeated meme at the best.The preceding unsigned comment was added by 103.1.240.1 (talk • contribs)

Wow, geez, I took a look at that, and confirmed it. The POTR scandal gains a new facet. I'd recommend moving that page to "Alcohol's" user space, not deleting it -- we may need it to hold against him. (Unless he can prove he's the original author, lol.)  ~ BB ~ (T) Icons-flag-us.pngTue, May 15 '12 8:59 (UTC)
Oh, is that you, POTR? Sorry, didn't recognize your IP address. ~ BB ~ (T) Icons-flag-us.pngTue, May 15 '12 9:03 (UTC)

Hello Mr 103.1.240 - I moved this page to the original users accounts personal space away from public eyes to so speak - Hopefully this sorts this all out. Cheers for informing us of this:0)--Sycamore (Talk) 10:18, May 15, 2012 (UTC)

Just so everybody knows, I have been informed that I made a mistake about the original author. It seems Alcohol simply removed that section from the article Political correctness to its own article, which was a good-faith attempt to clean up a page without pissing off any of its old authors. I apologize for my own oversight.
In my defense, though, it was a bit difficult to trace the origins of that section. Looking at the history, it would seem MadMax pulled that section from Politically correct on February 5th, and it was apparently pasted into that page on Sep 9 '08 by Gabrielbray, who apparently was a one-trick user.
Anyway. No scandal here. To make it clear that Alcohol was more or less blameless, I'm going to move it back to mainspace and then QVFD it. ~ BB ~ (T) Icons-flag-us.pngWed, May 16 '12 17:48 (UTC)

edit User:CameronG.‎‎

You reverted my subtle poke on this user's assertion about the adequacy of book-learning? You should let him do so, as I invited him to in the Change Summary. Spıke ¬ 20:47 24-May-12

Maybe like put it on his talk page where he can appreciate it more.--Sycamore (Talk) 21:06, May 24, 2012 (UTC)
