Thank you for the welcome.  :) That sandbox edit was actually me testing out a way to do a numbered list that doesn't start with 1; I had posted a few messages around Wikipedia asking if that could be done, and when someone showed me that method, I had to have a go at it myself.  :)

FAC: Dream Theater

[edit]

Hey Durga,

The Dream Theater article is up for featured article status (see nomination page here), so you might like to lend your support to the effort.

Cheers. -- plattopusis this thing on? 11:30, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)

Hehe, whoops. Didn't see your vote. My mistake! -- plattopusis this thing on? 17:31, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)

Vandalism (and progressive rock)

[edit]

Hi! Thanks for noticing my edits: I usually look for vandalism in general, but I am a fan of Dream Theater, so it's on my watchlist. When I saw the vandalism, I had a look at the anon's contribs to see what other edits he had made, and I found that edit to Rush. To be honest I haven't actually heard any of their music, but I'll probably check it out now. ;) Keep up the good work fighting vandalism. αγδεε (ε τ c) 21:21, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm. Yeah, I don't know if there's an easy way of getting rid of these kind of vandals: we can be pretty certain this vandal has a dynamic IP, so blocking them will just mean they can unplug their router and get a new unblocked IP (the three IPs we've seen so far have all been allocated to the same ISP in Japan). Blocking an entire ISP is clearly out of the question (at a glance, they've got about 1.5 million unique addresses), so... we do the ordinary vandal thing: keep reverting them, warn them, and block them if it they get to be too much. Luckily, this vandal's not as persistent as some — they're only infrequently editing two articles (actually, four: they edited Yes and Economy of Japan but seemed to have given up there), and it's really only borderline vandalism. It could be worse. And thanks for the album recommendations, I'll check them out. αγδεε (ε τ c) 05:53, 19 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
