Hey, disregard any of that new account stuff that showed up. I'm working on getting down to the bottom of who did it.-Cam ^T^|C 06:11, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Aladdin (disambiguation)

Actually, Abtract is just making those edits to harass me. Could you revert back to my revision? It is a disambiguation page after all, and the Egyptian surname cat was legit. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 20:28, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. You might want to add the page to your watchlist, as that editor has a history of stalking and other disruptiveness, I'm afraid it's far from over. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:28, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

(after edit conflict) I reverted to your version. Regardless of whether he was doing the edits to harrass you or not (which I think I'd possibly agree with), and regardless of whether this warrants an automatic revert regardless of the merits of the actual edit (on this issue I imagine you are much more well-versed on policy than I, being an admin and everything), I looked over the edit I made more closely. Originally I removed {{disambig}} because it was made redundant by the other disambig tag, but in retrospect the former probably applies more fully. In addition, I agree with your other reasoning, I think. Again, I largely trust you to know more about style guidelines on this than me.

Thanks for not just reverting me, even after I took so long to reply. :) Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 21:30, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

You might like to know that Sess is not an admin ... and has a history of making less than valid edits ... please judge edits on their merits. Abtract (talk) 21:33, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Apologies. I know it's a cliché, but I was genuinely sure that Sess was an admin. Regardless, in my original response I do say that I reverted based on the merits of the edit itself, and upon more thoroughly inspecting my first edit, I decided that overall I prefer Sess' version (for the reasons stated in the edit summary, and above).

I will admit that both of you know more about disambiguation pages than me - perhaps it would be worth asking for outside input from other knowledgeable people, on WT:MOSDAB or something? Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 21:41, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

If it's of any concern, I have filed a report on Abtract for violating 3RR on Aladdin (disambiguation). Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:56, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Thank you...

...for defending my user page. I'm sure the red-link meant well. I'm sure. Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} 15:57, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for reverting vandalism on my talk page. Imperial Star Destroyer (talk) 15:44, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I find it most pleasing to mention...

That I am back. Score! So, friend, what changes have I missed in my absence?-Cam^T^|C 18:02, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Footnoted quotes

		The Minor Barnstar
		Please don't ever be afraid of tidying up the project again! For this edit, and being a great contributor, I, AGK, award you, Dreaded Walrus, the minor barnstar. Happy editing! Anthøny 23:09, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Thank you very much! I know that some pages (such as archived AfD pages) generally shouldn't be edited, and as I don't tend to follow Arbitrations, I wasn't sure if this was also true with closed arbitration cases. Thanks for letting me know, and of course for the barnstar. :) Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 23:39, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
