Help please

{{adminhelp}} I have just realised that my username has been used to create a new account User:Garsten in the past few minutes. I personally have not done this. I have changed my password incase someone has gained access to my account. Is there anything else I can do? Many thanks, Schumi555 (talk) 11:20, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Have you used your account on a public/shared terminal and forgot to sign out? In that case someone might have not seen it when creating their new account. Changing the password is a good idea here, it will mean that further misuse at that terminal is impossible. Unfortunately there is no way an admin can remove that creation from your log, at least I know of none. If your account has not been compromised further, I suggest you learn to be more careful with your account in future. You might consider using a user committed identity as well.

Thanks for that, I will look into the template. I've never used my username on a public computer because I know of the damage that can be caused if I forget to log out. I only ever use it on my personal laptop at home or at University. Thanks again, Schumi555 (talk) 14:11, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Re: January 2009

No problem, I am a member of a Formula One forum where I discuss about F1 & other things & it was said that Jenson Button was rumored to go on loan to either Scuderia Torro Rosso. Will look for the link now. --Danny 93 (talk) 14:05, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

1995 European Grand Prix

I have undone your good-faith edit as I plan to add more content to the article both above and below, so I would have had to remove the wikilinks you put in there anyhow. Please note this post at WT:F1. Thanks, D.M.N. (talk) 16:57, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Esan Page

Hi Schumi, did you perchance write any of the information on the wikipage on the Esan People of Nigeria? Your name came up under discussion. Thanks, I am researching the language.

Hi Rollenic. Looking through the page history I did indeed make an edit to the page two years ago, but only to revert some vandalism, so I'm afraid I can't really help. Regards, Schumi555 (talk) 22:05, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

Shmede/Brown Town nonsense

Hello Schumi. I have just deleted User:Garsten and blocked Garsten (talk · contribs) as a sockpuppet account of the same trolls that started causing trouble because we wouldn't let them use the project as a free web provider. Now I've asked you before to do what you can to prevent this and I assume that you have. But in the page I just deleted, the last edit was yours. This either means that your brother is using your account or that you're knowingly supporting this nonsense. I assume hypothesis 1 is correct, in which case you might want to change your password or logout when your brother and his friends are around. Thanks, Pascal.Tesson (talk) 22:19, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Actually, it looks like the Garsten account was created using your account. [1] Pascal.Tesson (talk) 22:22, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
Very good. I have to say that I'm puzzled by their insistence to put this on Wikipedia and not on MySpace, Facebook and the like. Cheers, Pascal.Tesson (talk) 18:26, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Re: Status template

Hey, Schumi. It looks like you're trying to edit the status page manually; the colored links at the bottom of the template should automatically edit the page for you when you click on them. If the reason you're doing it manually is because the script isn't working right (you just get the edit box, but nothing's changed and it doesn't automatically save), then try following these steps:

  1. Bypass your cache, even if you've already done so. Do this a couple times, then try again.
  2. If that didn't work, purge your userpage, then try again.
  3. If that didn't work, try completely clearing your browser's cache (instructions in the link in step 1), then purge your userpage once more, and try again.
  4. If that didn't work, try logging out, closing your browser, starting it up again, logging back in, then going to your userpage and trying once more.
  5. If you're still not getting it to work, log out, close the browser, restart your computer, log back in, and try the template one last time.
  6. If even that doesn't work, then take a deep breath, try not to kill your computer, but let me know and I'll try to look into it more.

The reason I'm having you do what seems to be a ridiculous imitation of the hokey pokey is that the problem is almost certainly on your end. It does appear as though you've followed all the steps correctly (status page exists, you installed the script, you added the template), and I just checked the links and they are working correctly. So, the only thing I can imagine to be the problem would be that your computer doesn't realize you've installed the script. The steps I've given you should be the digital equivalent of beating it over the head with a frying pan until it listens to you. Of course, nothing is ever foolproof, and it's possible (albeit unlikely) it still won't work after all that. Again, if that is the case, drop me another message and I'll try to work things out. Best of luck! Hersfold (t/a/c) 00:43, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

2009 Australian Grand Prix

No worries man. See when i did the one in the results bit, and it came up with 34 references, it was confusing because of the redundant ref. So I just looked through the revisions and saw where the ref was, to get it back. :) Cs-wolves(talk) 15:29, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi s555

Thanks for the assessments and getting things working! 22:45, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

No problem, I thought I'd lend a bit of a hand :) Things seemed to have slowed down over at WP:Derbys recently. Schumi555 10:04, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

No I don't know ... but I'd experiment with noinclude tags or nowiki tags. They may help. Say are you up to choosing some featured articles or pages for June on the Derbyshire page? I hjave been doing it for last few months and be interested to see your choice?? Victuallers (talk) 18:25, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeh I sure am :) I'll take a look. And thanks for the advice, I'll try some experimenting. Schumi555 18:29, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Peak District

I am now retiring- so no more early morning shocks. Just wondering why you had un wikilinked Stanage Edge, The Roaches, and fluorite- they seemed sound to me (not urgent) --ClemRutter (talk) 13:13, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Well done for getting Peak District to GA. Sorry about deleting the wikiprojects. I made some hurried edits to pass it as I am at work and meant to be doing other stuff so didn't notice what I'd done there. Polargeo (talk) 10:21, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

What?

I have never vandalized "Ethiopia". In fact I am a registered member of this Wiki, currently logged out. Not sure why I am getting your message anyway, Regards. 124.197.15.106 (talk) 06:24, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Mercedes and Button

Translated version of AMuS reads as:

"First indication of it is the obligation of Nico Rosberg. For the first time since the confession from Mercedes to the formula 1 in the year 1994 a German running driver drives a silver arrow. Team colleague becomes Jenson Button, who for a long time around its content haggled. Still on weekend breakdown fires were sent that the world champion could possibly andocken with McLaren. Button does not have large interest to meet there the compatriot Hamilton established in the best way in the team. McLaren tried further an agreement with Kimi Räikkönen to obtain and used the Button rumors probably to press the Finn in its estimated prices."

Babelfish isn't the best for translation, but I wanted to get it out there and stop the flurry of edits in the very immediate future. If it's wrong, we can correct it; BBC F1 is useless for news. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 11:53, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
