Administrator nomination

Hey Eurodyne, thanks for the support, but I can add my reason because it says that only administrators can change or write on the page. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 22:33, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions#Administrator. Goblin 22:38, 19 September 2014 (UTC) I ♥ Auntof6!

Great! You have put up an RFA. I supported and left a warm comment. Eurodyne (talk | changes) 01:31, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

Your QD request on "Truck history"

Yes, that page needed to go. However, "poo" is not a bad enough word to call it vandalism. I deleted it as a test page. --Auntof6 (talk) 04:51, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

K. Thanks! Eurodyne (talk) 04:55, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

Question

Hi, I 'm active at the Gothic wikipedia and you at first removed my talk at the page of the user Moonspell Bloodlines but after that added it again. That's ok, I just wonder why you thought it was spam which I have written, as I don't really understand it. Bokareis (talk) 23:38, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Sorry. I just jumped the gun. I think I reverted it back though. Sorry my mistake! Feel free to revert my changes if I haven't done so already. Cheers. --Eurodyne (talk) 23:46, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Good faith edits

I noticed that you did this revert and this one with edit summaries about reverting good faith edits. I wouldn't call the changes you reverted good faith edits. A good faith edit is one that an editor thinks is an improvement to an article, but it actually isn't a good edit. I can't imagine those editors really thinking they were improving the articles. Does that make sense?

By the way, when you revert an edit that added profanity or attack language or something similar, you can ask the admins to hide the objectionable language from the edit history. Just leave a message at WP:AN, letting us know which page it was on. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 01:11, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

 Got It! Okay thanks! Eurodyne (talk) 01:40, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

need to flag vandalism

When you correctly revert vandalism (such as on Apple), it would be helpful if you would place an appropriate flag (message) on that user's talk page. This helps others to see that editor's track record. Macdonald-ross (talk) 07:56, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Okay. I somtimes get lazy and forget to warn. Thanks! --Eurodyne (talk) 13:58, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Your QD request on Buzzfeed.com

Hi, Eurodyne. You QD'd this article using the copyright violation option. What source has been copied? I need to know the source if I'm going to delete it for copyvio. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 07:15, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Hey Auntof6. Sorry about that. I meant to put "Obvious advertising" but apparently I clicked to choice below it which was "Obviously breaking copyright law". Sorry about that. Thanks for the notification! --Eurodyne (talk) 13:51, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

species

Nice to see new pages, but it helps readers if you say something about a species, like why it is notable. The reference given for Hypatopa lucina is for professionals. It fulfills the letter of WP guidelines, but would be way beyond most of our readers. Macdonald-ross (talk) 05:36, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Okay. I just copied it from enwiki (and gave attribution of course) Eurodyne (talk) 13:53, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Deserts vs. desserts

Hi, Eurodyne. Are you sure you want Fruit salad under Category:Deserts? You probably want to move it to Category:Desserts! :) --Auntof6 (talk) 04:44, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

Whoa. Sorry about that. I have to remember that dessert has 2 s since you want another serving. Thanks! Eurodyne (talk) 16:08, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

Mongolian Prime Minister

I noticed that you reverted an IP editor's change to Mongolia where the name of the prime minister was changed. I thought you might not have noticed that that editor made similar changes to List of national rulers, has been making similar changes regularly for some time. Do you think we should revert them all? I'd also like to see references for this kind of change, but I don't know a good place to look up current national rulers. What do you think? --Auntof6 (talk) 01:23, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

Maybe try leaving a note on the IP's talk page first. If the edits are all closely together, I say revert and have them find a reference. Eurodyne (talk) 01:52, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

The ones about Mongolia are close together, but the others have been spread over at least a couple of months. I think I'll ask at Simple Talk if anyone has a good place to look up the current leaders of various places.

Sure. I'll take a look at it. Eurodyne (talk) 05:12, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

Excuss Me

but why did you change the Item on the Page ?

Hi there! Welcome to Wikipedia! I didn't see how that change was helpful so I reverted it. Can you explain why it was there? Eurodyne (talk) 21:07, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

Some guy put has a foot fetish. and put a link on the sandals page and you Deleted it.

I'm sorry but I didn't delete it. I just reverted the edit. I didn't see how it was helpful. There was no link as well. Eurodyne (talk) 21:15, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

That Guy put in there Because he likes to take a picture of Womens Feet in sandals.

Realpolitik

Hello Eurodyne, I just finished making Realpolitik a viable stub. Before requesting quick deletion (for a page being nonsensical), please check if it really is. Note that in the case of Realpolitik, there is a page at Enwp, at en:Realpolitik, and what we had here was basically a short summary of the first paragraph there. So, please actually check, before requesting quick deletion of a page... --Eptalon (talk) 10:02, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

DYK

I enjoyed your DYK hooks very much. Perhaps this week we'll start filling those empty queues in! I added a new hook and I was wondering if you can review it. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 01:05, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

• I'm moving your hooks to the moving area which means they're ready to be added to the following queues. This means you can nominated up to four more hooks! --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 01:19, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks! Eurodyne (talk) 01:49, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
