- Every page I protect is on the wrong version, of course, so to conserve valuable electrons, just leave a link to the page and a number from the list. Thanks.

Request for page un-protection
There is consensus on the talk page of 2004_U.S._Election_controversies_and_irregularities that the page should be unprotected so that we can add information to it and restructure it. There is a deluge of information on this topic, and we'd like to keep pace with it. Thanks. Kevin Baas | talk 18:48, 2004 Nov 9 (UTC)
- I second this request. Keeping protected articles that are effectively "in progress" for a protracted period of time is detrimental. There are enough of us around, during daylight hours at least, to overcome the challenge that vandalism presents. Zen Master 19:30, 9 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- No problem, it's done. -- Schnee 19:31, 9 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I don't care about politics, or your particular views.... but that article is a MAJOR problem, and a major vandalism target because of it. Do the right thing and remove that listing from In the News. Also, please do NOT use "rollback" on my edits ever again. I am not some common vandal, and using rollback is not only a disrespect, but also is not explaining your reverts. -- Netoholic @ 23:42, 2004 Nov 10 (UTC)
- I don't see why it's disrespectful; it's just the easiest and most convenient way to do just that (revert). -- Schnee 23:43, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)
You are now in violation of the Three revert rule on Template:In the news (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Template:In_the_news&action=history)]. Please respect other contributors by discontinuing your edit war. -- Netoholic @ 00:06, 2004 Nov 11 (UTC)
- One might say the same thing about you. -- Schnee 00:14, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- *shrugs* As if that matters. FWIW, if you want to become technical, I didn't revert anything at all; *you* and Andris were the ones who reverted, and I merely reinstated Neutrality's version after you did. -- Schnee 15:37, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Community
Most people on wikipedia seem to have a Liberal Bias.--198 06:00, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Vandalism in progress page
Hi. You changed a lot of the entries on the Vandalism in progress page to templates in order to save space. Unfortunately, the wikipedia software only expands templates for the first few instances on a page; the result was that after the first few entries, the posts on the page simply said "Template:Vandal", rather than listing the IP address and so on (see the page before I reverted (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Wikipedia:Vandalism_in_progress&oldid=7331210#169.151.1.213)). I've reverted those changes. Mateo SA | talk 06:48, Nov 11, 2004 (UTC)
- Thanks. Yeah, I noticed that as well now; it's a known bug in Mediawiki that's fixed in cvs, so hopefully we'll be able to reinstate those templates soon once cvs becomes stable (or the fix is backported). -- Schnee 15:37, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Keeping "In the news" NPOV and credible
Following various attempts to add partisan and fringe stories to Template:In the news, I've proposed a new criterion to keep such stuff out. Could you please take a look at Wikipedia talk:In the news section on the Main Page and let me know what you think? -- ChrisO 17:19, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Sure, I'll take a look. -- Schnee 21:20, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

A quick note to say thanks
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you for your support in my request for adminship. It was certainly a wild ride, and I really appreciate you taking some time out to contribute. ClockworkSoul 16:25, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- *smiles* You're welcome - I'm just sorry some people opposed you merely because of your username. I can understand the reason for it, but I still think that it's rather stupid, and I was quite surprised (and disappointed) that even mav did it. Anyhow, congrats on your promotion now. ^^ -- Schneelocke (cheeks clone) [[]] 23:02, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

- Goodness... buggered if I recall where I got that one from. Ultimately, it'll probably be the best idea to find a new image that definitely is GFDL'ed and get rid of this one.

Naming
Last march (it was a long time ago, i agree) you moved an article from Eicosane to Icosane. Just thought I'd let you know, I put it up on Requested Moves to be moved back, since Eicosane turned up 20 times more results on google, and if you type in "icosane," it corrects it to say "eicosane." doubt you care, just thought i'd left you know. =P SECProto 19:44, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Article Licensing
Hi, I've started the Free the Rambot Articles Project which has the goals of getting users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to...
- ...all U.S. state, county, and city articles...
- ...all articles...
using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) version 1.0 and 2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to the GFDL (which every contribution made to Wikipedia is licensed under), but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles (See the Multi-licensing Guide for more information). Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. So far over 90% of people who have responded have done this.
- Nutshell: Wikipedia articles can be shared with any other GFDL project but open/free projects using the incompatible Creative Commons Licenses (e.g. WikiTravel) can't use our stuff and we can't use theirs. It is important to us that other free projects can use our stuff. So we use their licenses too.
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}} template (or {{MultiLicensePD}} for public domain) into their user page, but there are other templates for other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}} with {{MultiLicensePD}}. If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know at my talk page what you think. It's important to know, even if you choose to do anything so I don't keep asking. -- Ram-Man (comment (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Ram-Man&action=edit§ion=new)| talk) 14:39, Dec 3, 2004 (UTC)
- No problem, I hereby put all my past, present and future contributions under a dual CC-by-sa/GFDL license. Thanks for letting me know about this. ^^ -- Schneelocke (cheeks clone) [[]] 14:41, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for the Larry Walters article!
Thank you for mentining the Lawnchair Pilot on the WP. I didn't know he later committed a suicide, a sad ending indeed... BACbKA 17:43, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)

The Humungous Image Tagging Project
Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

Unverified images
Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:
I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much. [[User:Poccil|Peter O. (Talk, automation script)]] 05:11, Dec 11, 2004 (UTC)
P.S. You can help tag other images at User:Yann/Untagged_Images. Thanks again.

Image:Fursuit autumn fox hotel.jpg
Hi hi, I noticed that Image:Fursuit autumn fox hotel.jpg is lacking a proper copyright tag - could you add one, please? Thanks. ^_^ On a related note, does the owner/creator of this suit have a website? I've been in love with the suit (so to speak ^_~) ever since I first saw it on http://www.ratemyfursuit.com (defunct, unfortunately), but wasn't able to find any information or further photos really. Thanks! ^^ -- Schneelocke (cheeks clone) [[]] 16:46, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Hi Schneelocke! It's from http://www.rabbitinthemoon.us . It's a great fursuit. The creator's also got some relatively well-made kigurumi masks on the site. Theere is also a relatively interesting forum. -- user:zanimum

Image tag
Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:
I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status?
You can use {{gfdl}} if you release your own work under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{PD-self}} if you wish to release your own work to the public domain, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, and so on. Click here for a list of the various tags.
If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the image from, and I'll tag it for you. Thanks so much. Denni☯ 04:23, 2004 Dec 13 (UTC)
P.S. You can help tag other images at Wikipedia:Untagged_Images. Thanks again.

Clitoris
Hi, I noted your recent revert to Clitoris. Please read the talk page on this; some of us are temporarily agreeing to a period of linking to the image as part of trying to reach an agreement that satisfies all parties. There is no intention to permanently remove the inline image; this agreement expires first thing Monday am. Please take this into account when viewing edits on that page. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 00:35, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Locking the page is an abuse of your admin powers, Schneelocke. I understand that you are fiercely opposed to all views but your own (a view you would be aware that I share, had you bothered reading the discussion before imposing your own POV on the page) but it is a breach of policy for an admin to abuse their powers this way. Please unprotect the page and do not further abuse your powers. Dr Zen 00:42, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Calcium on the Commons
I just started jbo:bogjinme and the image of the periodic table with calcium highlighted automagically popped up. However, it is huge and shows a body-centered cubic cell, whereas the one on en: is small and shows face-centered cubic. Can you put the correct image on the Commons? -phma 04:49, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Image reverted from Wolf
Hello
I am just curious about the logic behind the revert of the added image to wolf Considering that it would be very hard to add a more modern image about trapping/hunting of wolves (for obvious reasons) I find that the picture has merit.P.S. 14:35, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- That was mostly a gut reaction to an image I found rather offensive - I don't think there should be any images relating to wolf hunting in the article, no matter whether modern or not. But that's just my opinion, of course, and it may not have been entirely justified to just revert like that. Sorry about that. -- Schneelocke (cheeks clone) [[]] 01:06, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Infobox templates
What you should do then is one single template for all chemical elements, not one template for each element. If you need help on this, I can help — Kieff | Talk 03:00, Dec 26, 2004 (UTC)
- I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Obviously, since the data contained in the infoboxes varies for each element, you need a separate template for each element; and while it would theoretically be possible to use a massively-parametrized template for *all* elements, this would also mean that each element's infobox would have to contain the same entries (with missing data being left as blank fields), which would be highly undesirable, especially as far as the isotope sections are concerned (which have, by the very nature of the data contained therein, a varying number of entries). The current system, which uses further templates to create the actual infoboxes, is, I think, reasonably well thought-out and flexible while also providing some user- (and especially newbie-)friendliness. If you have suggestions for changes to these templates etc., please discuss them at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Elements. -- Schneelocke (cheeks clone) [[]] 03:04, 26 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- I don't see why not. Mediawiki is powerful enough to allow this (and without overly big costs in terms of database/cpu overhead, too); and also, templates using templates are not that uncommon, anyway. If you have a system that allows you to do things in a nice and logical way without too many kludges, why not use it? If you have another idea, feel free to discuss it on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Elements, of course (which really is the proper place). -- Schneelocke (cheeks clone) [[]] 03:20, 26 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Clitoris protection
I think you may have protected Clitoris prematurely. There was no edit warring, just an edit and a revert over twelve hours before you protected the page. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 17:09, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Maybe, but it seems like every edit these days is either the addition of a warning/removal of a picture/... or the revert of such an edit. -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 00:28, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

clitoris vprotect
Please see my brief conversation with Raul on User talk:Raul654. I think a block aimed at the culprit may well be more appropriate than a vprotect that would affect all of us in this case. The article seems to be stable except for this one editor's persistent attempt to get the article protected. I agree that it's probably vandalism, but if so it's vandalism by someone who really should know better. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 02:08, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Personal feelings...
Personally I have to agree with the ex-co-founder of Wiki-Pedia. This site is much too rejectful by arrogance, due to the fact people, such as yourselves, tend to protect the content of a page, as though it were 'their' property. When individuals who've actually had more experience in the field, and of the matter could provide way more 'on-site' intelligence. When instead, it is not my property, it is not your property, it is nobody's property, but the entire world! I guess I'm a loner in some ways about these feelings, such that, I'm sick of contributing some of what might actually benefit future generations *shrugs*. Most of my contributions were not 'altered', more like totally erased!
PS FUCK IT!
- Stop making a fool of yourself and and read up on WP:NPA. -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 07:16, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
They were not 'personal attacks'. My scipt kiddie addition information, was actually factual. Most kids attack web hosts out of a void (psycological problems). My Visual Basic addition posts yielded very insightful information towards the language, a 'newbie' might have been able to use. Perhaps you people don't like details, merely to be VAGUE AS FUCK! If you can't handle 'real' science and experience from 'the field', then maybe you all have a problem, and not myself. Either way, I'm done with this community. Sort this shit out amongst yourselves or whatever...

Monkey Island
I'm pretty sure you'll find that there is a drowning easter egg in the Secret of Monkey Island (the first game). After Guybrush has stolen the idol, Fester throws him into the sea tied to the idol. If you leave the game here for 10 seconds, Guybrush drowns. I think that possibly a similar thing happens when you try to get the figurehead from the Mad Monkey in the second game, but I'm really not sure about that. Any way, there definitely is a drowning-based easter egg in the first game. Drw25 13:22, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Superhuge cardinal
You deleted a redirect from this to huge cardinal. Sadly, I do not think there is enough information on the internet to compile even a stub. Google returns 9 results for "Superhuge cardinal" all but one of which are Wikipedia mirrors. Would a redirect to large cardinal be more appropriate? --Oldak Quill 14:34, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Maybe, but personally, I think it'd be nicer if we just left it as it is now. An article that actually does not exist has one definite advantage: it's clearly recognizable as such, so if someone happens to come across it who has an actual definition of superhuge cardinals, they're much more likely to put it in there. -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 21:09, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

- Brion:
- NEVER use š or š for s-caron. Numeric character references always refer to Unicode code points, and U+009A is a reserved control character, *not* s-caron. It might appear to work sometimes due to a fluke and crappy workarounds for compatibility with a Windows bug, but should definitely not be relied upon. Use the real Unicode number, š. The same goes for the other characters in the Windows CP1252 extended range (see ISO 8859-1#Windows-1252 ).
- For the moment the only named character references that will work in links are the ISO 8859-1 ones (s-caron does not appear in ISO 8859-1). Stick with the numbers for now.

- Just wondering, but... are you sure you got the right talk page? I'm not involved with the Quarto at all really, and I can't remember you getting in touch with me, either (unless I know you but don't associate the name "Sj" with you). ^^ -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 12:13, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Image on copper element page
Schnee, I was wondering if you could check out Image:Cu-TableImage.png, which I believe should have 34 neutrons on copper rather than 35. Is it possible for you to fix it? I checked in the CRC handbook, and indeed copper-64 is radioactive as it states in the table, but copper-63 is the common stable isotope. I would never have noticed except for the comments left recently by someone (see the history for the copper page). BTW, those images are fabulous, and only 6k! Amazing!

- Thanks for your comment. ^^ It's been a while really since I made this image, but if I recall correctly, then the number of neutrons for all these images was based on the average atomic weight of the element, not the number of neutrons in the most abundant stable isotope. Copper has an atomic weight of 63,546 u, so it's leaning slightly more towards 35 neutrons. ^_~ That being said, I do agree that this may be confusing and maybe should be changed, but I think it'd be better to discuss this on WikiProject Elements instead of making a change to a single article (and thus introducing inconsistencies in the ways the element articles handle these things). -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 19:39, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for explaining. Since the elements project is pretty dead, I mentioned it to the Isotopes Wikiproject people.
Re: password matches
all the accounts listed on this page have been created solely for the purpose of trolling
How can you be sure of that? Just because they share the same password? Or is it because they've been caught vandalizing? And if the latter, then why the need for the password matches at all?

- I'm copying that to the page's talk page - that's probably a better place to discuss these things. -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 19:20, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
