Welcome home[edit]
Sit down and tell us about your trip. Mei (talk) 05:27, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- It's mostly been oversighted, TK agreed to lot me back if I didn't parody then report it on WIGO, I figured with out TK blocking me I'd make it for a while, I was wrong. Ken Blocked me for plagiarism and poor quality edits when I edited an article that someone else had plagiarized. --Opcn (talk) 05:32, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- You should have thought of that before being in or around plagiarism. Mei (talk) 05:37, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- And are you dusty from the road? Do you need some ointment, or perhaps a rubbing of the feet in warm scented water? How are your boils doing after this long trip? And your hemorrhoids, with so few gentle "stations" along the way? ħuman

Don't do that[edit]
It's really not a good idea to try to capture an entire page - the Obama article resulted in a 8 Mb, 1024x26758 pixel file. Stick to diffs (between multiple revisions, if necessary), or if that's not good enough, use a section link, Capturebot should be able to extract the section you linked to, so it doesn't produce such a huge file. -- Nx / talk 22:51, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- I spent several minutes trying to find a dif, and I don't know how to use sections. Sorry. Is there a tutorial somewhere that I can read? --Opcn (talk) 23:00, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- Just click a section in the table of contents, and copy the link from the address bar, e.g. http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Barack_Hussein_Obama&diff=prev&oldid=774343#Larry_Summers_and_Leftist_Economicsimg. (There's a help file too: Help:Links#Section links, but that's about internal links) -- Nx / talk 23:10, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
Your Robert Byrd WIGO[edit]
Sorry if I'm not laughing but I doubt that very few on this side of the pond realise what it's about (well, I do now). It would help if you explained it a bit better. Lily Inspirate me. 11:19, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks, that's now much clearer for us furriners. Lily Inspirate me. 12:32, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Reigned in[edit]
I think you mean reined in. Mote, eye etc 82.23.208.15 (talk) 17:47, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
Libel?[edit]
Funnything about drilling for oil, you're libel to end up mighty dirty in the process
Is that meant to be a pun? — Unsigned, by: 82.23.208.15 / talk / contribs
- no, I just cant spell, I am heavily dependant on spell check :/ --Opcn (talk) 19:08, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
The revision you deleted...[edit]
...was still visible. I've deleted it (as a normal user), but it is still visible in the revision history, even to BoNs. I've never had to delete a revision before and don't know how to do it. CS Miller (talk) 21:08, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
- I guess I fail, I don't do much admin stuff. I'm not terribly worried about it, that is the address Schalfly used for his conservapedia business, so anyone who really looks at conservapedia will find it. --Opcn (talk) 21:15, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
- I had a go myself and failed. I even tried on my test wiki (hosted on a spare machine of mine, only available to those on my LAN), and its default setup doesn't even seem to allow the local bureaucrat to hide revisions. *shrug* CS Miller (talk) 21:23, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
- Ah, you have to enable the revisiondelete facility. It seems you strike out an action from the log; it still appears but normal users can't see what occurred in the action; only in it and the next one. Seems a bit odd that you can't completely redact a diff. CS Miller (talk) 21:40, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

True Believer[edit]
Did you ever begin reading the True Believer? I'm just curious what you think of it so far, if you did. ghazi alizm, comments? 01:58, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
You lucky bastard.[edit]
I signed up for the Cr-48 beta, but I guess my 140 character blurb wasn't inspiring enough. Oh well. Corry (talk) 19:52, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
I am sorry[edit]
For commenting out your WIGO of the 5th. It's back thanks to Pi and I've redacted mine since it made the page a bit redundant. These things happen in a free society. Feel free to block me for a year. 04:57, 7 February 2011 (UTC) C®ackeЯ

Oh....[edit]
So his name is spelled Kanwaza? Did I spell it properly then? Global languages and I have a bit of an issue........--Lefty (talk) 11:33, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Your WIGO[edit]
For some reason you've stuck an Amazon link in there. I've hidden it until you can add the correct diff. --PsyGremlinSermā! 11:26, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
