I've seen...[edit source]
You've been going on just about every admins talk page some of which aren't very active. You should contact an active admin instead (again, only one) i.e. Thekillerfroggy, Mhaille, Mordillo. Thanks-- 01:30, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- And I've already dealt with it and banned the bugger. :) -- Sir Mhaille (talk to me)
- What he said. We get vandalism like that all the time, don't get too stressed about it. In the future, you don't need to use Undo if you can't find it, just go to your last revision, press Edit, then save. Voila! Back to your version! Oh, and report the guy who did it to Uncyclopedia:Ban Patrol, so we can get up in his ass later on. -- 01:39, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
I am cornholio! I need TP for my bunghole! (translation: I'm as active as a wet sloggoth and you probably would be best served talking to the good fellows above).--<<>> 13:12, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, and ban patrol is where all the cool kids hang out.--<<>> 13:17, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- What every bloody admin on this site said. I'm just hanging around drinking my tea. ~ Mordillo where is my FLYING RAT'S ASS? 10:40, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Chinese Empire[edit source]
please help expand the article.ㄏㄨㄤㄉㄧ 03:15, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
wow my wikipedia account just got blocked indefinetly. its funny how some people can report others yet get away with breaking policies.ㄏㄨㄤㄉㄧ 01:05, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
hi im the above user who just got blocked from wikipedia for placing a sockpuppet template on someones user page.
after i got blocked, someone removed all my hardworked edits regarding chancellors of china and reverted them, and im sure they will be reverted again. i copied and pasted them from Category:Chinese chancellors
theres the proof right there that my edits werent vandalism, yet just because i got blocked its vandalism.162.83.160.174 20:08, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
you know what im using my account now.ㄏㄨㄤㄉㄧ 20:10, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
also somehow adding Chinese cash, and chinese coin, constituted "vandalism" according to the user who removed themㄏㄨㄤㄉㄧ 20:12, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
and about that anon ip who keeps reverting Old Chinese, and Middle Chinese, to just chinese, those were the respective languages spoken in those dynasties at those times and i cant see why hes removing it.ㄏㄨㄤㄉㄧ 20:36, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
that anon ip is also wrong when he says arcahic chinese was only a spoken language, apparently hes never heard of classical chinese and the definition of "vernacular" chinese.ㄏㄨㄤㄉㄧ 20:38, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
and it should be in fact the spoken language in the lnaguage,\ box, not the written one. so the ip should not be it.ㄏㄨㄤㄉㄧ 20:42, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Your Pee Review is now ready, Sir[edit source]
I hope it is useful :) --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 16:16, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
- Hi Pericles, glad you are pleased with the review. Regarding the Bauer pic, by all means leave it in (in fact I left a message somewhere else where you were talking about how much you liked this pic that basically retracted my previous comment). In addition I was also suggesting that the lyre/lyre pic got moved down to the bottom because I like it, but I don't think it's top-of-the-page stuff. Good luck with the finishing touches :) --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 17:16, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
- Hi again, glad to see there's some good progress. In regards to the query regarding the caption of the new pic, I would say that the joke is good, but its vocabulary could be changed. I would suggest as a general rule to try and change the manner of speech to match the period you are talking about (I can tell you generally play by this rule anyway), so instead of "horny" use "amorous" and instead of "100% lesbian" say something like "Jeanne Mary used her skills to convince him she was more inclined to a forage in the Lady Garden" (or something similarly euphemistic). Good luck :) --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 01:17, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
- Pericles! (sorry, I've never had the pleasure of shouting enthusiastically at such a prominent historical figure before, thought I'd give it a go) Hi again, I like what you've done so far, would you like me to comb through and tell you what suggestions I might have? Or would you rather me make small adjustments (assuming it's nothing major)? For example, I would have kept the "over" in front of "amorous" in the first caption, is this the kind of thing I need to tell you about? --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 11:15, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, I noticed that earlier, it's because you still have "File:" at the beginning instead of "Image:". I'll have a skim through after lunch, I'll suggest improvements here and make minor changes to the actual text. --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 12:00, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
- Actually I changed that and nothing happened :( --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 12:03, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
- Got it. --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 12:05, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Senor Pericles, I shall read the article tomorrow - if that's ok - because I am rather tired right now. I would highly suggest 2 things before considering submitting it for VFH:
- Consider doing a conclusion paragraph ("consider", no pressure or anything) or some kind of ultimate evaluation of lyres (would also include cutting down length a little, more on this when I read it through properly)
- Submitting it for a 2nd Pee Review and get one final alternative perspective on the article
- I'll give my own final verdict on the article tomorrow (but you may as well put it up for Pee Review anyway, it takes quite a while for anyone to get to them) :) --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 23:40, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
Yes, you're quite right. As long as you leave the article on a conclusion-esque note (just like a sentence about the future or something), perhaps considering an open question or profoundly silly statement about the future of lyres, there is no problem whatsoever. I'll check over it tomorrow :) --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 00:48, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
- I'm refraining from VFHing at the moment mainly because I feel new ideas can be incorporated. Like I would really like to incorporate an Elizabethan sonnet into it somewhere using the archaic "lyeth", a medieval mistrust/superstition for random inanimate objects and something typically old-englishy. Could be funny, there's no reason to rush anyway --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 01:17, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
- Indeed, well I'll check it over later, I'm not fully functioning yet. You're feedback will come soon. --El Sid, the lazy one • parlez-vous franglais? 09:18, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
