Rollback

Does the Simple Wiki grant Admin Rollback like the English Wikipedia does? SwirlBoy39 (talk) 16:00, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but simpleWP does not have non-admin rollback, so right now only admins have rollback, unless non-admins use javascript. There has been a discussion here regarding rollback, but it has been decided that it is still too soon for non-admins to have rollback.-- Lights  talk  16:19, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Is the discussion still open? SwirlBoy39 (talk) 16:33, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, it's archived, so the discussion's over. You could bring up a new discussion at Simple talk, but I'm sure people will still say that it is still too soon for rollback again since the previous discussion was recent.-- Lights  talk  16:35, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Across The Universe

Hello barliner. The other day, I put Across the Universe up for GA status, I was wondering if you could take a look at it and then maybe decide weather or not you think that it is worthy, here? Thank-You Kindly IuseRosary? ^(talk) 11:57, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Ben updates

Oh, and just to keep you up-to-date on the ben front, ben was fine all last week at school, very cheerful and enthusiatic etc. When I hung out with him yesterday, he was fine aswell, talking about how he is looking forward to being back and he's made a list of articles he wants to edit. No bad turns or anything to the new treatment. IuseRosary? ^(talk) 15:14, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Erm. Hi. So Today Ben was fine, he wasn't as cheeful as last week, but it has been quite stressful at school lately, so it's expected. He got a couple of homework questions in Chemistry wrong and was a bit hard on himself - he's been such a perfectionist lately. But he cheered up a bit after band practice (he plays piano, very well) and has been fine. Ben would like to know when would be an appropriate time to propose coming back again? Than-You +

Just a question

Hello, Barliner. Could you please tell me anything about this monobook.js? Kindly I need to know what does it concern!!! Cheers...--RecorDprodUceR (talK 2 mE) 14:23, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

It is a page for javascripts. Mine has extra edit buttons and antivandal tools. --Bärliner 15:10, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Ceauntay

This user's userpage and user talk page are reminding me of that vandal we got a while back where they were creating those pages. Maybe something more is needing to be done about this, but I think that we should be cautious about this user. Just letting you know, Razorflame 21:32, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks I'll keep an eye out--Bärliner 21:35, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Long March

Yes, I'm sorry about that. I realized that I had written it very poorly and improperly, and was going to fix it after I finished rewriting a segment of the main Mao Zedong article. I would have had to refer back to a resource first, as I don't remember it very well. Thanks for fixing my errors. TheWolf 13:08, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Template:HDS

I didn't want to add this to this Wikipedia because I didn't think it to be relevant, so therefore, I would like to request that you use AWB to tack it onto every municipality page that I've made that has it on en:WP :) Thanks in advance, Razorflame 15:17, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Sounds more like a job for darkicebot--Bärliner 15:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm new to bot running, so do you think that I should ask Huji about how I would accomplish this? Razorflame 18:32, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes, but I think I have a way to do it on AWB too. I will just try it --Bärliner 18:41, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Template:Sockpuppet

Either fix one or fix the other cause they both gotta connect to the same category.--  † ChristianMan16  19:32, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

What the heck are you doing the templates go hand in hand and MUST direct to the same Category.--  † ChristianMan16  19:36, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Fine, be that way, I was actually helping Wikipedia your the one HURTING IT.--  † ChristianMan16  19:38,

Note that I did not delete the duplicated category, I deleted your re-creation. --Bärliner 19:48, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Barliner, your patience knows no bounds! Just wanted to mention that - Alison ^❤ 06:35, 11 March 2008 (UTC) (enwp admin/checkuser)

Nigerian RfDs

Given that for the most part all of these articles were covered under a previous Rfd (here), you may just want to QD the lot of them "per result of RfD" rather than re-rfd'ing them. -- Creol(talk) 21:24, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I remember a discussion with the author of the Nigerian pages, but don't recall the RFD.--Bärliner 17:58, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

World War I

I am disappointed with this article. This page, at best, is just a collection of short stubs about many of the different events of World War I. Before I added some sources to the first part of the article, this whole article was completely unsourced. It would also seem that, by looking at the English Wikipedia's version of this article, that we are lacking in this article, and that some of the information presented in this article is either incorrect, or is unsourced. Clearly, this is an article that is critical to a Wikipedia, because of how big of a historical event it was, so shouldn't our version of this article be as in-depth and critical as some of the other Wikipedia's versions of this article? I recently thought that this article would be a good GA, but after going in-depth into this article, I have decided that this article would need a lot of work before I believe that it will be able to even be able to pass the GA requirements. I would like to suggest you take a look at this page and help to fix this article up to make it as good of a GA as possible. Thanks for reading this long message. Razorflame 15:10, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Reorganizing states

looking at the facts:

• US - 9.8million km2, 50 states
• Eur - 10.2m km2, 48 countries + a couple wannabe countries (really in Asia, but still somehow get stuck in Europe)

We'll fix the states if you fix your countries. At least we use the same general terminology in each state, you lot use 25 different languages to say the same thing... -- Creol(talk) 18:16, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Check out my userpage. European flag and Europass. We've got 27 of those 48 countries joined up already. So which states are you going to get rid of, just to keep everything equal :) --Bärliner 18:33, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Making changes

Thank you for your message. But I don't think you have objectively applied yourself to the issue at hand. More importantly, I did not "remove statements merely because you do not like them," but because they go against the bio rules of Wikipedia, and you should make certain these rules supersede your own personal beliefs. Even if the person whom you think is the creator of a web site is the case -- and there is no proof of that -- when you call such a person "anti-Armenian" you are libeling him. If someone believes history is otherwise, particularly if the history in question wrongly presents a people as Nazis and thus invites bigotry, that has nothing to do with hatred or racism against those who are making such charges. You certainly would hate someone who is hiding behind a pseudonym to blacken your own name in the same fashion, so why are you doing it? It is very irresponsible of you, and you ought to be ashamed of yourself.

I have changed the bio page to what it should be, a bio page, and not a page about a web site. Please restrain yourself from making changes unless you possess factual proof, and read my detailed post at bottom of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Murad_Gumen Featurer (talk) 23:42, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Please do not threaten or harass me or other users eg User Wolf. This information is what appears on ENWP, except that I have included a reference.

QE II

I'm still working on it! Amandajm (talk) 14:27, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Barliner, I've just adjusted the pics again. Would you please go back to your last edit and really look at the effect of trying to squeeze another pic in, without considering the layout. Regardless of the size screen it pushes the images on top of each other in such a way that it forces the text to detach from its heading. This problem happens frequently, but most particularly when text boxes are added and force down all the pics (and text that they are linked to) on the right. Its OK,now, because I moved the Queen on horseback in an intermediate edit. Amandajm (talk) 14:37, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Nothing was detached on my screen. Will you please stop treating everyone as if they are idiots. I notice that some of your edit summaries have been most uncomplimentary, and as such against wiki policy.--Bärliner 15:05, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

New page patrolling

Hello, Barliner. It seems as all of this Wiki admin are quite busy! Because, so many times I was just passing-by in "Special:Newpage" area and I found a lot of pages are not be patrolled, while there's so many administrators. In our local Wikipedia, you can't find any page which are not be patrolled. Most of time I use to pass over. That I shown as I care about any new in our local Wikipedia (some times here). So, whats problem causes all of adimin to stop patrolling a new page?....--Muddyb Blast Producer (talk) 15:24, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

A patrolled new page simply means that an admin has looked at the page and marked it patrolled. Many admins use the "new change"s to check pages and make edits. They have seen the page too, but have not marked it as such.--Bärliner 21:10, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

They should really have to mark them as they have already be patrolled. It's quite interesting to do that. It's better to do cause it's proceedure which are needed to be followed, Cheers...--Muddyb Blast Producer (talk) 05:57, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

It is not a "procedure", just an alternative which most admins seem to have chosen not to use.Bärliner 17:04, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Upload

How can I upload an image to simple english wikipedia? Thimo.Brendel —This unsigned comment was added by Thimo.Brendel (talk • changes) 20:25, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

You cannot. All images must be uploaded to commons.wikipedia. The image: command automatically searches on commons. --Bärliner 13:55, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Where ya been?

Hey there Barliner....I'm just a little worried because I haven't seen your name in the recent changes recently. I just hope that everything is all right with you back at home. I kind of miss you and I think I am left a little hanging. Do you think you could let me know as soon as you get back please? Thanks, Razorflame 22:10, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

User:Barliner/Stars

Hi Barliner (or another admin watching this page), could you kindly change Image:Raok barnstar.png to Image:Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar.png on your awards page? The former image is being universally replaced by the second. Cheers, Riana (talk) 13:24, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Robbery

Hi, I noticed you deleted Robbery a while ago, but there was no reason given, I just wanted to know if it was okay to re-create the article? Thanks Grant Kennedy ^(talk) 09:35, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

The deletion was of a test edit. There is no reason that the article can not be recreated.-- Creol(talk) 09:40, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Brilliant, thanks. I have created it again anyway. Cheers, Grant Kennedy ^(talk) 10:00, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi Barliner. I was wondering if you could check out any potential photos for use on simple wikipedia of Jade Goody. Would be appreciated. And Nikki Grahame.. no hurry..--Sinbad (talk) 21:27, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Interwiki's

Hi Barliner,

You placed the wrong incorrect interwiki's in an article. Could you please be so kind to correct that in this article and all articles in the other languages? I actually don't understand your failure, since an equivalent of this article yet existed in English at that time. Now it's quite some work to repair it because bots don't do so. Thank you. Regards, Davin (talk) 15:46, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Just in case you come here again, I've made the corrections myself yet, after a friendly notice of Fr33kman ‎that you're almost not around here anymore. Davin (talk) 19:19, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Custom Siggy

Hello Barliner. I linked to your talk page from http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Making_a_signature and followed each of its steps. The last step however is a tad unclear (or perhaps I am not reading it properly) as to whether in the My Settings field for 'new signature' what I put after the forward slash either, "/sig2" or, "Skychildandsonofthesun/sig2" "User:Skychildandsonofthesun/sig2".

I think this is where my problem lies. Either way, my customized signature is not working. It works on my subpage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Skychildandsonofthesun/sig2) but is not showing up when I put the four tildes and sign my posts. There seems to be two area that I need to update after making a subpage (My preferences: where I have intentionally left the user field empty) and (My settings: where I have input the tag -> {{subst:User:(Skychildandsonofthesun)/(User:Skychildandsonofthesun/sig2)}} ) but it does not seem to work. As mentioned, I think it is to do with what I put after the forward slash. Do you know what I am doing wrong or where I can get someone to help me sort this out.
