Speedy deletion contested: Mirwani

Hello Methecooldude, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Mirwani, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Logan Talk Contributions 02:54, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Ok, but I also tagged it as A3 as well... does it not apply there? - Rich(MTCD)Talk Page 08:38, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
No, A3 doesn't apply there either. That is only for articles that contain no content whatsoever beside a rephrasing of the title, external links, or a template (there are other ones listed on {{db-a3}}). The article seems fine as a stub right now. Thanks! Logan Talk Contributions 09:01, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
Mkay, thank you. - Rich(MTCD)Talk Page 09:03, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Hello

You warned me for the change for Tiegs for Two when it appeared I added fact-- the snippets from the Street Fighter II scene were indeed the actual sound effects from the game itself, save for Peter and Mr. Washee Washee....when the YOU LOSE screen appears, Seth MacFarlane does that voice. I thought it might help if I added the fact in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.60.29.64 (talk) 17:06, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the note. You might want to add that as a footnote rather then putting it in the text body :) Apologies for the revert though. - Rich(MTCD)Talk Page 01:02, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Abuse Response

Hello! I noticed that you have been editing the abuse response case for: 203.122.240.100. We appreciate your effort, but I'm going to have to ask that you leave the work to the investigator working the case. Thanks! AndrewN talk 04:35, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Bah... Wish your signature were a little more descriptive than MTCD... Didn't realize MTCD = MeTheCoolDude until I closed the page. Could you let me know how you're doing on the case I mentioned earlier? Thanks! AndrewN talk 04:37, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
Sorry about that ^_^. Just need someone to contact the ISP. Due to personal issues at the mo, I am unable to do it myself. Thanks! - Rich(MTCD)T|C|E-Mail 21:53, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
Alright, thanks for the update. I'll look over and see about contacting them, but we might want to wait until we have a new email domain first, so we're not using our personal accounts. AndrewN talk 02:24, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
For reverting vandalism on my user talk page Ryan Vesey (talk) 14:48, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Stiki and AWB

I noticed that you use Stike and AWB; although, most of your edits are with Huggle. Which do you like the best and are the two I mentioned able to perform any additional tasks other than vandalism reverts? Ryan Vesey (talk) 15:00, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Hey Ryan, I use STiki as it supports ClueBot NG, which I host on my servers, but as it runs in java, it can be a little slow. I've used AWB a little bit but don't use it that often, it's not designed as a vandalism fighting tool. I do like Huggle the best however, as it is made in Visual Basic, it's prone to crashing sometimes.
As for your second question, AWB is very powerful and can do quite a lot, I haven't got my head around it yet.
Hope this helps
-- Rich(MTCD)T|C|E-Mail 15:05, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Thanks, I probably will have to prove myself for a while longer before they could think of allowing me to use AWB. I made a dumb mistake and have this to show for it. Ryan Vesey (talk) 15:11, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Revert of your edits

I went to move it and the article had already been moved there. I replaced your speedy deletion tags, sorry. Ryan Vesey (talk) 15:22, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Revert of my edits

I have removed a statement of fact for a specific article because it has no source (and i know it to be incorrect anyway) but one user keeps un-doing my change. are you able to stop him from doing this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.10.108.234 (talk) 16:55, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

I don't know....................................

You put a big, BIG sign right at the top of ClueBot's talk page, brightly coloured and in bold letters saying that ClueBot is not human and therefore cannot respond to questions. Then you get posts like this one appearing on the page lol. Made me smile :)--5 albert square (talk) 22:28, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Should I add "text-decoration:blink" too? --The Σ talkcontribs 22:32, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Cluebot's data is back up on tools

Hello! ClueBot's data is back up, and I guess uncommenting the crontabs should start them back up. Will you be available to do that and verify it works, or should I just uncomment the items in the crontab? Thanks! YuviPanda (WMF) (talk) 12:31, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

@YuviPanda (WMF): If you could uncomment the crontab that would be awesome :) - RichT|C|E-Mail 13:10, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
