Hi DarkMatterMn4500,

I'm not quite sure whether you are trying to be funny with this comment, but that is not very nice to say, regardless of your view on whether the candidate is suitable to be a wiki creator. While you can, absolutely, express a view and present an argument for, against, or otherwise about a candidate, your argument should reflect the reason(s) for why the candidate is suitable or unsuitable. Please also remember that the Code of Conduct guides us to be nice and neighbourly at all times.

Thanks,

 * I suppose I could've worded it better than how it was originally intended to be. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:08, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, specifically, the comment about setting up a "sweaty hat collecting shop" is what I am mainly referring to. Dmehus (talk) 19:09, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I have removed it after getting your message here on my talk page anyway, so I apologize for any inconveniences with that comment I made there. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:11, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * That's fine, thank you. As I said above, you can, absolutely, still express a few for, against, or about the candidate, but just give it a little more thought before you hit the "submit" button. Consider using the "show preview" button, and reading your message to make sure it's tactful and presents a positive image about yourself. Dmehus (talk) 19:13, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I think for next time, I should word it better, so it doesn't come off as snarky or just plain stupid. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:23, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, that sounds good. . Dmehus (talk) 19:26, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

Blocking Dexter's Mom
That vandal kept messing up the page about Sesame Street'! Can you block him for good?!?!?!? Eric Bagwell (talk) 19:47, 17 May 2021 (UTC)


 * First off, he wasn't even vandalizing that page. While yes, he did move that specific page, but that was only to update the seasons. And second, you're only making me block him for a stupid reason. So I'm going to decline the block call this an attempted biting against the user. Now stop asking me to block people for a ridiculous reason. -_- DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 23:06, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Unblocking Eric Bagwell
NOT AGAIN! I admit defeat! Please unblock me, once more. Eric Bagwell (talk) 00:16, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * What are you talking about? Iron Sword 23 (talk) 00:19, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Hello
What's your opinion on Eric Bagwell removing my message from your talk page?--Iron Sword 23 (talk) 00:27, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Unblocking Eric Bagwell at Greatest Movies Wiki
Hello? Can you please unblock me at Greatest Movies Wiki, ONCE MORE? Eric Bagwell (talk) 00:29, 18 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Honestly, please do not annoy me or spam me with messages. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk)
 * Just please unblock me. I won't do THAT again. Eric Bagwell (talk) 00:39, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * DarkMatterMan4500 If I might offer my opinion as a community member of Greatest Movies Wiki, I will just note that I saw your block of Eric Bagwell, and the fact that Eric Bagwell may annoy you on Meta Wiki really shouldn't necessitate a block on Greatest Movies Wiki, no? In fact, arguably blocking the user on Greatest Movies Wiki will cause Eric Bagwell to ask you more on Meta Wiki. Dmehus (talk) 00:47, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * While that's fair and all, I just don't want Eric Bagwell to keep asking me here as it pretty much floods my inbox. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 11:33, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm NOT gonna flood that inbox, I have some patience. Just unblock me. Eric Bagwell (talk) 14:16, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Please. don't block me. I WON'T do that again. Eric Bagwell (talk) 00:53, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I suggest we don't unblock him anywhere. He can't handle the slightest bit of criticism, makes consistently poor edits and pages, and tried to get me and Dexter's Mom (and maybe others) blocked when he was the one really causing problems. To top it all off, it's highly likely, based on his writing style, his irascible behavior, and his whining over the Disney-Fox merger, that he is actually a sock of globally locked user Red hair. Marxo Grouch (talk) 00:34, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Red hair is pretty much a stale account at this point. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 11:31, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Unblocking Eric Bagwell at Best Shows & Episodes Wiki, Terrible Shows & Episodes Wiki and Awful Movies Wiki
Thanks for unblocking me at Greatest Movies Wiki. Later on, you'll have to unblock me at Best Shows & Episodes Wiki, Terrible Shows & Episodes Wiki and of course, Awful Movies Wiki. I'll be waiting. Eric Bagwell (talk) 01:53, 19 May 2021 (UTC)


 * I have to ask, are you actually indeed Red hair, a user that was globally locked for being a ? DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 02:10, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * DarkMatterMan4500 Where is this coming from? I would just remind you that you should avoid casting aspersions and remember to assume good faith. Dmehus (talk) 02:26, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Um... nope. Eric Bagwell (talk) 02:54, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay then, that's all I wanted to hear. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 09:17, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you, for your pure kindness. Eric Bagwell (talk) 13:08, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * In this case, I feel I should apologize for failing to assume good faith. In the future, I will try to help edits rather than assuming the worst by inserting deletion tags on what I assume are bad pages. In fact, I'll be changing my standards regarding what counts for deletion as well. Marxo Grouch (talk) 13:43, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Template:Uw-removevandalism
Hi, is there any particular reason why you thought Template:Uw-removevandalism would be useful on Meta? Personally, I haven't really seen a use-case for this notice on Meta. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 13:14, 20 May 2021 (UTC)


 * I have to agree with Reception123 here. For one thing, this template has been copied from English Wikipedia without providing an interwiki link to the source page's contributors in an edit summary, which is technically a copyright violation. Copyright violation aside, it hasn't been de-Wikipedia-ified. Most importantly, though, I don't personally feel that we need to use Twinkle templates to warn users for vandalism. We're usually not very BITEy around here, tend to assume good faith for mild vandalism, and blatant vandalism is typically done by IP hopping vandals and LTAs; thus, there's no need to give IP hopping vandals and LTAs a mild warning. They are unlikely to change their approach with a Twinkle warning. Finally, I'm definitely in favour of keeping the Twinkle templates to a minimum. Dmehus (talk) 13:37, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, okay. I simply thought it would be useful for simply sysadministrators and/or other higher functionaries, but it seems like I was mistaken. I apologize for copying and pasting it from Wikipedia. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:44, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply. For clarity, though, system administrators don't need to perform Meta administrators' functions on Meta Wiki, though. A pro tip for copying from English Wikipedia for the future, simply provide an edit summary in the format of, replacing   with the page name being imported. Dmehus (talk) 13:48, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
