X! (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA)

With all due respect X! I think your moderation policy is a little restrictive. You won't let anything be posted under a Theology subtitle unless the contributor posts a comprehensive overview of the person's entire theology - lest it give an imbalanced view. But with that kind of reasoning nothing will ever be added as nobody will do that. Wikipedia is mean't to function with one person adding one bit, and another a different bit so that it gradually builds up, but with your thinking the whole process is blocked - a person must write a comprehensive Theology of a person to be able to say anything at all. That seems to be very restrictive and will result in a lot of blank pages. No hard feelings though...

I guess it's time to ask the community for their opinion of me (without going through RfB). What do you think? (X! · talk) · @843 · 19:13, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I simply love you for all of the cool and invaluable Wiki monitoring tools you provide. ThanX! and keep up the good work. -- ǝʌlǝʍʇ ǝuo-ʎʇuǝʍʇ ^ssnɔsıp 00:48, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have to say, your SoxBots are amazing. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:57, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Good user in general. Just a few things: I noticed that you tend to go inactive for a few days at a time for no apparent reason. Not a big deal really, but if you're busy in real life, it's best to note that somewhere. Also, I think you should get a bit more involved in article writing. Keep up the good work! –Juliancolton | ^Talk 23:57, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for your comments. Yes, I do go inactive for a few days at a time. For the last 5 weeks, that had to do with my summer job. Some days were very tiring, and I would just go home and collapse for the rest of the night. That results in 2 days of inactivity if you count nights. In the past few days, I was on vacation for 5 days. I would have put a notice up, but I thought that I would have internet access. (Little did I know that the first hotel charged $12.95 a night for wifi, and the next only had a dial-up ethernet connection). As for article writing, I've been trying to get GNOME work into my arsenal again (such as adding the {{convert}} template to roads, for starts). I agree that I need some more content writing. I thought you said that you and I would collaborate on 2006 Pacific tropical cyclone season, what happened to that? ;) (X! · talk) · @080 · 00:54, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'd also like to say thanks for the Soxred93 toolset - I think I'm one of the few that actually "breaks" the RfA counter ;) Skier Dude (talk) 02:48, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OT: can someone point me to tool set or bot pages? I'm making spot checks for various page attributes, curious to see what is going on here. Thanks.

I've been playing with tools for analyzing vocabulary("freqassoc" is a work frequency tabulator, eutilparse is being used to compare two vocabularies developed for med lit) , lynx -dump "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random">xxx ; cat xxx | grep -v "http://" | sed -e 's/ */\n/g' | grep -v "[0-9]" |tr [A-Z] [a-z] | freqassoc | sort -g -r > yyy; echo `eutilparse -diff yyy ~/soc_vocab `

I was also looking at link destinations,

 559  lynx -dump "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random">xxx ; cat xxx | grep -v "\["|grep "[a-zA-Z0-9]" | head -n 1 ;cat xxx | sed -n 's/.*http.\/\/\([^

/:"]*\).*/\1/p' | sort | uniq -c| sort -g -r

Sorry for off-topic, but wasn't sure where tools are covered. Thanks. Nerdseeksblonde (talk) 16:24, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
