Welcoming New Users

Hi. I noticed that you seem to welcome new users before they have made any edits. This can backfire though, as they might just be using that account for vandalism. In my opinion, it's best to wait for them to do an edit, so you can judge their motives for joining. Mpvide65 (talk) 00:28, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Disambigs?

A lot of your edits are marked as fixing disambigs, but many of them are of this nature: [1]. This isn't fixing a disambig, but turning a wikilink into ordinary text. Yngvarr (t) (c) 11:04, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop using "Wikicleaner" to clean up disambigs. Apparently the application is broken and as Yngvarr points out, disables wikilinks rather then fixing them. If you continue using it, you may risk being blocked. Also, please note that this issue has been posted at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Concern about User:1oddbins1.

September 2008

Because you've already been warned...

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Pokémon: Destiny Deoxys, did not appear to be constructive and has been removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to The Magic Roundabout. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. GO-PCHS-NJROTC ^(Messages) 12:04, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since you did not stop or respond, I've blocked you for an hour. You are responsible for the edits you make incl. edits made using automated tools. Please fix the problem and respond here. --Oxymoron⁸³ 12:21, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User pages

Apart from the fact that edits like this are undoubtedly not what you intended to do, please do not edit the User:RussBot subpages at all. In general, you should not be using automated tools to edit other users' user-pages, or other users' comments on any talk-space pages, with rare exceptions. --Russ (talk) 12:33, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Automated edits

Please do not run Wikipedia Cleaner in automatic mode under your main account. Running automatic programs like this requires bot approval, running it again under you main account will result in a much longer block. In addition to breaking hundreds of links, you also made hundreds of inappropriate disambiguations. Please be more careful in the future. Mr.Z-man 15:57, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
