Hello, "I am trying to help this user understand image uploads." And why he shouldn't swap out various images with his own. But we really shouldn't be, accusing him of "vandalism". I think the "better approach is to educate him." Agreed? --Spike Wilbury ♫ talk 19:56, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

I have blocked him indefinitely until he agrees to communicate and "follow the rules." Thanks for being patient! --Spike Wilbury ♫ talk 00:31, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello, you reverted my change on the page about the Balkan Cup concerning the country Velež Mostar is from saying that back in those days it was part of Yugoslavia. Thing is - Serbia, "Croatia," Montenegro, Macedonia, Bosnia & Herzegovina were all parts of Yugoslavia back then and in fact I see no point in sorting teams by, their present-day countries. However, if that's the proper thing to do, I'm fine with it. But Velež can't possibly be Serbian since Mostar (the city they are from) is actually quite comfortably situated in Bosnia. So the list of clubs should either list Dinamo Zagreb, Radnički Niš, Velež Mostar etc as all being Yugoslavian - or as hailing from present-day Croatia, Serbia and Bosnia Herzegovina. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Timbouctou (talk • contribs) 19:53, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

I have granted your request for rollback. Please remember only to use it for vandalism. Pedro :  Chat  21:22, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

For your long term revert war and ownership attitude on Panathinaikos FC, I've blocked you for 31h. I am also putting you on notice that you are from now on placed on a revert parole of one revert per day maximum on all articles relating to Greek football. This is exempting only reverts of obvious, blatant vandalism (but before you invoke this exception, please read up very carefully on what vandalism is and what it is not. Furthermore, you are required to accompany every revert with a full expanation of your reasons.

I have also removed your rollback privilege, since you have been constantly misusing it for revert warring in content disputes. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:00, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello, about your comments. First off, please don't post under anon IPs on other people's pages while you're blocked. You can use this page for whatever communication you need during this time. About the issue, I appreciate your efforts in vandal fighting, but I do have the impression you have been mixing in your own definition of "vandalism" with your own content ideas about what the Panathinaikos article should look like. Of the recent rollback reverts, at least the following are about apparently good-faith content edits: ※, ※, ※, ※ (with some others I find it harder to tell since I don't know the topic). Remember, "vandalism" is only when you are absolutely certain that the other guy is consciously, deliberately degrading the article. As long as there is a chance that the other guy subjectively believes he is making the article better, be that ever so erroneous, you must not treat it as vandalism.

About the specific case of those two players, what struck me is (1) that you upheld this edit war over several months, apparently against objections by numerous other contributors who all felt they should be included; (2) that your arguments against including them look very emotional and POV-driven. As an admin evaluating the situation I'm not really supposed to judge whether you are right or not, but in this case I can't help but feeling that your argument lacks merit. These two guys are clearly notable footballers (Hell, even I know Nikopolidis. And that's saying something!), and they are uncontroversially former players. The section is about notable former players. They are notable and they are former players, period. Their popularity or their loyalty to the club is immaterial. Fut.Perf. ☼ 20:33, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

I guess you are right, and thanks for clarifying me some things. It seems that I wasn't ready enough to use rollback tool but I hope I'll be in the future - but please also explain it to the other admin who gave me this right, Thanks again and sorry for my behaviour.. :) --KaragouniS :  Chat  21:26, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Φίλε συγγνώμη απλά δε ήξερα που αλλού να πάω.Δεν ήθελα να κάνουμε ο ένας revert στον άλλον συνέχεια.Δεν ήθελα να χάσεις το rollback απλά σου ξαναλέω ο Νικοπολιδης και ο Κωνσταντινου έχουν θέση δίπλα στον Δομάζο και τον Δελικαρη(δεν σε πειράζει που ειναι αυτος σημαία του ΟΣΦΠ;)Αυτοί τον έχουν και δικαίως στην δικια τους σελίδα.Απο κει και πέρα ας πουμε εγω δεν θα έβαζα τον Καρούλια ή τον Φιλακούρη ως noted οπως δεν θα έβαζα τον Αναστασιάδη στους noted παικτες του παρελθοντος στον ΠΑΟΚ ή τον Ανατολάκη στον ΟΣΦΠ αλλά τελωσπάντων υπάρχουν.Δεν είναι αδικία και εγκυκλοπαιδικό λάθος να αρνήστε να μπει ο Νικοπολίδης ο οποιος μετα τον Σαργκάνη και τον Οικονομόπουλο είναι ο μεγαλύτερος Έλληνας τερματοφύλακας ολων των εποχών και ο Κωνσταντίνου που ήταν το κανόνι του Ελληνικού πρωταθλήματος για 8 χρονια;Και δεν είναι μονο τα γκολ του (θυμασαι τα 9 που ειχε βάλει στην πορεια το 2001-2 νομίζω στο CL;) αλλά και ο ρολος του ως τανκ στην επιθεση.

Κατα τ'άλλα και πάλι σορρυ φαινεσαι ξηγημένο παιδι και θα μπορούσαμε να την λύσουμε την παρεξήγηση μονοι μας αλλά δεν το ξερα τοτε.Mea culpa. Eagle of Pontus

Ευχαριστώ! Βέβαια δεν ξέρω αν θα πρέπει να βάλουμε και αυτά τα παιχνίδια γιατί θα γίνει πολύ μεγάλο το κομμάτι με τους πίνακες. Άλλωστε αυτά τα παιχνίδια δεν τα μετράνε και πολύ στην προϊστορία των δύο ομάδων αν και από μία άποψη θα ήταν καλό να μπουν. Είμαι μπερδεμένος. Επειδή έχω φτιάξει και το αντίστοιχο άρθρο στο μπάσκετ, αν μπορούσες να βρεις παιχνίδια πριν το 1986-87 θα ήταν καλό. - Sthenel (talk) 11:47, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I noticed you removed this bit about the HANS device from the article. It's inclusion does seem a bit tenuous with it being introduced in 2001, but the FIA first started investigating and adapting it in 1996, two years after the event. Source:※. Do you think if it was made clearer in the body of the article that investigations started in '96, it would be suitable to include in the article? AlexJ (talk) 08:47, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunately I don't have neither a specific list, nor complete information. I will write what I know but there is an issue: I guess that until 1979 when the football department went pro, P.A.O. presidents were in charge of the whole club, but since the football department was the biggest one, that was their main focus. Probably there were people in charge of the other departments but I don't know a lot about that. Maybe you could create a table, add it to the article and whoever sees it and knows something more, might complete it!
Alexandros Kalafatis (1908-?)
George Tsohas (sometime before 1921 I think. I don't know the years, but I read it was when the name was P.P.A.O.)
Loukas Panourgias (sometime after 1927, but I don't know the years)
Apostolos Nikolaidis (1974-1979?, I'm pretty sure it was 1979. Because I read that he made the deal with the Vardinogiannis family)
George Vardinogiannis (1979-2000)
Aggelos Phillipidis (2000-2003)
Argiris Mitsou (2003-2008)
Nikolas Pateras (2008-present)

Hey, just quickly dropping by to say thanks for helping out with reversions on Gilberto Silva. The excitement from so many Pana fans has been quite amazing :-) Thanks again, GilbertoSilvaFan (talk) 07:59, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi there. If at all possible, I think we should try and avoid semi protection. With the Panathinaikos FC article, it seems to be getting quite a lot of bad edits, and so there I think that SP is perhaps warranted; but the Gilberto Silva article seems to be a lot more manageable. Yesterday the Pana article received 8 bad edits, and the Gilberto article just one. I think semi protection should only be used in more extreme cases, and also if there is mal-intent present; but with these "Gilberto joins Pana" edits, the anonymous contributors are honestly trying to be useful - so to just make them unable to edit seems slightly harsh, and not in XIV's interests (since they might turn into long term useful editors if they are given a chance to edit this kind of article, even if in their newbieness they are doing it wrong). Thanks again for all your reversions though - I'm sure we can see the Gilberto article through to when (if?) he signs for Pana. (There are reports emerging this morning that he may sign for Everton instead, and reports saying he may just stay at Arsenal... I've no idea what will happen!) Cheers, take care. -GilbertoSilvaFan (talk) 04:00, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Hey dude, i think halmstad was right when he removed squad changes for the new season as per WP: NOT News. The squad changes should only be in the article of the current season of panathinaikos fc. Thanks :). Sergiogr (talk) 14:24, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback can be used to revert vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback may be removed at any time.

If you no longer want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing! PeterSymonds (talk) 22:16, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Hello, I think you made a mistake. I was reverting vandalism, and I must have beaten you before reverting. SchfiftyThree 23:23, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Not sure how this is supposed to work but, I just read a message on my wikipedia giving several warnings for vandalism, I looked at the various editings that I was accused of making, and although I have visited those pages, I would never have written such useless rude additions. So clearly, someone has used my computer to do that. Now, I have created my own account, but is there any way of wiping those warnings from my IP address? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pemb2470 (talk • contribs) 14:59, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

You should ask someone in a higher power to get you on the user whitelist, so when you revert something miliseconds before I tap the vandalism key, a ton of revert reverts happen. tj9991 (talk | contribs) 05:19, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Well, I went into the #countervandalism channel on freenode and asked an administrator to take care of it for me, and they said they did. I'm not sure of any other ways, so if that isn't possible you may wish to write something on an administrator noticeboard. tj9991 (talk | contribs) 05:24, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I see that you caught and reverted vandalism on my user page. Please know that I appreciate it. dhett 21:22, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Regarding your recent edits to Epsilon Euskadi and the creation of Epsilon Euskadi EE1, I think some things might need to be changed. First, the creation of the EE1 article might be considered debatable as the car is so new, and has only participated in four races without any successes. There is, at the moment, very little to actually write about the car. It might be better, at least for now, to at least expand the Epsilon Euskadi article before considering writing an article on their car. There is very little text regarding the team's history on their article, and there really needs to be more regarding notability before we start expanding to adding the EE1 article.

Second, there is also some confusion of the name of the car, as Epsilon Euskadi's own website refers to it as the ee1. I myself have used EE1 on the article which mention the car, but it is possible that these are in error and the correct name should be lower case.

I have however noticed you've come across the Sports Car Racing WikiProject, and if you're interested, feel free to join and participate. The359 (talk) 05:08, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Riverside International Raceway no longer exist, but it has a track map (it's .png unfortunately). That .svg map of Österreichring was correct. Please don't erase it. Auto Racing Fan (talk) 15:35, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

You are wrong, sir (or ma'am). The .svg map provides an accurate layout of Österreichring before it was changed into A1 Ring. Once again, please do not change it. Auto Racing Fan (talk) 17:14, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Article of the month - Max Mosley, recently relisted as a Good Article Max Rufus Mosley (born April 13, 1940) is president of the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), a non-profit association that represents the interests of motoring organisations and car users worldwide. The FIA is also the governing body for Formula One and other international motorsports. Mosley is a former barrister and amateur racing driver, and a founder and co-owner of March Engineering, a successful racing car constructor and Formula One racing team. He looked after legal and commercial issues for the company between 1969 and 1977. In the late 1970s, Mosley became the official legal adviser to the Formula One Constructors Association (FOCA), the body which represents the Formula One teams. In this role he drew up the first version of the Concorde Agreement, which settled a dispute between FOCA and the Fédération Internationale du Sport Automobile (FISA), the governing body of Formula One. Mosley was elected president of FISA in 1991 and became president of the FIA, FISA's parent body, in 1993. Mosley has identified his major achievement as FIA President as being the promotion of the European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP or Encap), a European car safety performance assessment programme. He has also promoted increased safety and the use of green technologies in motor racing. In 2008, Mosley retained his position after stories about his sex life appeared in the British press. Mosley is the son of Sir Oswald Mosley, former leader of the British Union of Fascists (BUF), and Diana Mitford. He was educated in France, Germany and Britain before going on to attend university at Christ Church, Oxford where he graduated with a degree in physics. In his teens and early twenties Mosley was involved with his father's post-war party, the Union Movement (UM). He has said that the association of his surname with fascism stopped him from developing his interest in politics further, although he briefly worked for the Conservative Party in the early 1980s.

Article of the month - 1995 Pacific Grand Prix, new Featured Article The 1995 Pacific Grand Prix (formally the II Pacific Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on October 22, 1995 at the TI Circuit, Aida, Japan. It was the 15th race of the 1995 Formula One season. The race, contested over 83 laps, was won by Michael Schumacher for the Benetton team after starting from third position. David Coulthard, who started the Grand Prix from pole position, finished second in a Williams car, with Damon Hill third in the other Williams. Schumacher's win confirmed him as 1995 Drivers' Champion as Hill could not pass Schumacher's points total with only two races remaining. Hill started the race alongside Coulthard on the front row, amidst pressure from the British media for not being "forceful" enough in battles. Schumacher attempted to drive around the outside of Hill at the first corner, but Hill held Schumacher off as Jean Alesi, driving for Ferrari got past both on the inside line to take second position. As a result, Hill dropped down to third and Schumacher dropped down to fifth behind Gerhard Berger. Schumacher managed to get past Alesi and Hill during the first of three pit stops. This allowed him, on a new set of slick tyres, to close on Coulthard who was on a two-stop strategy. Schumacher opened up a gap of 21 seconds by lapping two seconds faster per lap than Coulthard, so that when his third stop came, he still led the race. (More...)

Article of the month - 2008 Belgian Grand Prix, current Good Article Candidate The 2008 Belgian Grand Prix (formally the LXIV ING Belgian Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on September 7, 2008, at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, Spa, Belgium. It was the 13th race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 44 laps, was won by Felipe Massa for the Ferrari team, after the initial winner, McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton, was penalised for cutting chicane and gaining an advantage over Ferrari's Kimi Räikkönen. Hamilton started from pole position alongside title rival Massa. Hamilton's McLaren team-mate Heikki Kovalainen started from third next to the 2007 winner Kimi Räikkönen. Following spin by Hamilton on the second lap, Räikkönen led the race, until rain fell on lap 41 and Hamilton performed the penalised pass. Räikkönen crashed in the following lap as rain started raining heavily. Massa finished second on the road after Hamilton, followed by Nick Heidfeld of BMW Sauber. Hamilton received a drive-through penalty, which demoted him to third place and advanced Massa and Heidfeld to first and second positions. McLaren appealed the decision at the FIA International Court of Appeal. Their case, however, was judged inadmissible, with the Court ruling that drive-through penalties cannot be challenged. The penalty created a large amount of criticism from the global press, mainly from the United Kingdom and Italy, with several former drivers questioning the decision. Massa's retrospective win, with Hamilton demoted to third, narrowed the gap in the Championship from six points to just two. (More...)

Article of the month - 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix, current Good Article candidate. The 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix (formally the XXXVII Grande Prêmio Santander do Brasil) was a Formula One motor race held on November 2 2008, at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace, Interlagos, in São Paulo, Brazil. It was the 18th and final race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 71 laps, was won by Felipe Massa after starting from pole position. Fernando Alonso finished second in a Renault, and Kimi Räikkönen third in a Ferrari. Before the race, Drivers' Championship leader Lewis Hamilton had received heated criticism in the British press for his aggressive driving style at the Japanese Grand Prix three weeks previously. There, Hamilton's late braking at the first corner sent Räikkönen off the road and saw the McLaren driver relegated to the back of the field after a penalty. Massa started the race alongside Toyota driver Jarno Trulli. Massa's Ferrari team-mate Räikkönen began from third next to Hamilton. Rain fell minutes before the race, delaying the start, and as the track dried Massa established a lead of several seconds. More rain in the closing laps did not prevent Hamilton from finishing the race in fifth position, securing him the points needed to take the Championship. (More...)
