Carbon freezing was originally a way for Bespin to transport their Tibanna gas. During ''Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back'', Han Solo is frozen in carbonite. The procedure leaves him in suspended animation. After this, it was used for imprisoning criminals.

[http://zwinger.wikimedia.org/~kate/cgi-bin/count_edits.cgi?user=Carrp&dbname=enwiki editcountitis] == High school issue == Hello! I've been wondering about something... the most prominent thing that regulargly gets VfD readers into, well, shouting matches, is the issue of high schools. I believe that you'd agree that high school (or primary school) is not inherently encyclopedic. Yet several people vehemently disagree, and it seems likely that high school articles (and lists thereof) will continue to get added. So I figured that maybe such articles need another venue. Would you think it feasible to call for transwikiing of high school articles, and related ones? And if so, where? Of the existing Wiki projects, the most appropriate one seems WikiTravel. But on Metawiki, there is talk of Wikiteer, which is to include extensive geographical and sociological information, but doesn't exist yet. I'd like to hear your opinion on this. I've asked the same question of a couple of other users, so please respond on User talk:Radiant!/Schools. Thank you. User:Radiant! 14:32, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC) == Please correct == You seem to have placed the page "Khazars in fiction" under the copyright violation category.

Please let me know. --User:Laurap414 00:16, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC) == Runtime == The runtime should include commercials. We should be consistent with IMDb. The infobox also is giving info on the first run of the show, not worrying about synidication and such. It should be the complete runtime as it originally aired. – User:Flamurai (User talk:Flamurai) 03:51, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC) :I disagree with including commercials in the runtime. The runtime should be the actual length of the program itself. You don't include the length of the ads or trailers before a movie, and a television show should be no different. Lost is a good example of the problems that can be caused by including commerical time. If you include commericials, Lost's runtime varies from 60-63 minutes, while the actual length of the show is quite constant (varies by less than a minute). As for remaining consistent with IMDB, I don't think that's really necessary. Only a few shows use the TV infobox right now, so adding an "excluding commericials" statement might be the best way to avoid confusion. Cheers! User:Carrp | User talk:Carrp 04:06, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC) :: I think Lost is the exception rather than the rule. Most shows are more consistent with their overall runtime than their runtime without commercials. The problem is how do you determine the actual runtime? (With newer shows it's easy with DVDs, but what about older shows?) Are we going to require authors to sit through and episode with a stopwatch? I mentioned IMDb because it's a source, and we don't want people guessing on Wikipedia. The movie argument is moot because the ads and trailers are tacked onto the beginning on the movie, not during the movie. The runtime should be the time elapsed from the start of the program (in its original showing) until the end of the program. – User:Flamurai (User talk:Flamurai) 12:14, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC) :::There's a few more problems with including commericial time: :::* It makes the runtime US-centric. Other countries may or may not have advertisements. If they do have ads, they may have more or less than in the US. :::* It's tied to a specific form of media. The first season of Lost will be released on DVD in September, and at that point a runtime of 60 minutes is no longer accurate. :::* It ignores special situations such the episode running ad-free (as 24 has done at least twice). :::The runtime should be the most consistent value possible. It shouldn't be tied to a specific country, medium or episode. When Lost is produced, its runtime is approximately 45 minutes. Whatever time is added by other parties after that point shouldn't be included. :::As for IMDB, even it isn't consistent with runtimes. Take a look at two of the most popular shows ever, Seinfeld [http://imdb.com/title/tt0098904/] and the Simpsons [http://imdb.com/title/tt0096697/]. Both runtimes exclude commercials. Other shows such as 24 [http://imdb.com/title/tt0285331/] list the runtime as 45 minutes and additionally list the runtime for various countries. :::Given all these factors, I think it makes sense that we use the most consistent and logical value, which is the actual length of the episode. User:Carrp | User talk:Carrp 13:30, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC) :::: First of all, it's not US-centric, it's wherever-the-show-first-aired-centric. Second of all, there's no problem with it being tied to a specific form of media. These are ''television'' shows. The DVD releases are secondary to the original airing of the show. Why do you think they're aired on television first, then later released on DVD? Third, that's more of a reason to include commercial time. 24 runs 60 minutes for both the special commercial-free episodes and regular episodes. Really, the point of the infobox is to present the show in its original form. I don't think it would be a good idea to list every network the show has been syndicated on in the "network" section, for example. You didn't address my question as to what ''source'' we're going to use to find the actual length of the episode, especially for older programs. We can't just guess. If you want to sit there and watch each episode with a stopwatch, be my guest. – User:Flamurai (User talk:Flamurai) 16:10, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC) :::::OK, let's step back for second and look at the big picture. Who are the users that will be accessing information on the runtime? They'll be from different countries, some will be have only seen the show on DVD, and many will be viewing the information years after the show is off the air. What runtime value will be the most useful to them? Will a Wikipedian from Australia who rents the HD-DVD in 2009 really be that interested in the original US runtime including commercials? The actual length of an average episode is the most constant value we have. Although we ''will'' know the exact episode lengths when the DVDs are released, we don't really need these values for the infobox. Each episode is produced to be approximately 45 minutes. The 15-18 minutes of commercials are not part of the episodes and thus should not be included in the runtime. User:Carrp | User talk:Carrp 16:42, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC) :::::: I give in. I'm just going to say this... '''don't guess'''. Wikipedia is a place for ''facts'' not ''guesses''. I just don't think "approx" belongs in every infobox. The reason I put that in the HBO shows is because they vary in length by more than a few minutes. – User:Flamurai (User talk:Flamurai) 16:53, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC) == VFD nomination process clarification == I would like your opinion about my suggested VFD nomination process clarification.

Could I trouble you to take a look at Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Argentine_Currency_Board. I am not lobbying for your vote either way, but no-one seems to be looking at this one (perhaps because it is a long article, and fairly technical), and I do believe it is worthy of some serious consideration.

User:Vaoverland 20:06, Mar 6, 2005 (UTC) == User:Vandenbr == :''You have already seen this first part.'' I am a bit worried about User:Vandenbr. His (and it almost certainly is an he) Special:Contributions/Vandenbr suggest a rather prima donna-ish attitude. I have reverted his edits to Trunking, Quality of service and Grade of service on the simplistic grounds that removal of wikilinks is vandalism. All his other stuff was new articles. Have I been too hard on him in doing that and in the note I left at User_Talk:Vandenbr? -- User:RHaworth 07:02, 2005 Feb 19 (UTC) On reflection, his error was to copy and paste from the displayed article rather than from an edit box. But he still needs to learn. -- User:RHaworth 09:28, 2005 Feb 19 (UTC) Vandenbr, who is now one of a team, has now learned how to create piped links but is otherwise sailing his own independant way.

Please review your vote, or at least provide a constructive way to adress these concerns, especially the last one. This is a stock message, but I replied to each voter individually on the VfU page.

I'd take a closer look at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/PJ-Comix; the bolded votes don't match the comments. See this [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AVotes_for_deletion%2FPJ-Comix&diff=11003097&oldid=10999030 diff]; an anon changed a bunch of delete votes. Cheers, --User:TenOfAllTrades | User talk:TenOfAllTrades 01:58, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC) :No harm, no foul. I'm always very wary of VfD discussions with such long comments ''and'' no delete votes. :) --User:TenOfAllTrades | User talk:TenOfAllTrades 02:17, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Closing vfds as delete == I'm hesitant to say anything, since I'm sure you're acting in good faith, but I'm concerned that you're closing vfd discussions as delete. Is there an administrator you've been forwarding these articles to for actual deletion? I worry that some of these articles might get forgotten. See also Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Log/Deleted/Archive/Feb05#Template:Vfd delete, where a template to facilitate non-administrators closing vfds as delete was itself deleted. —User:Korath (User talk:Korath) 03:22, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC) :Hi. I began closing VfDs after I noticed a rather large backup. I work about 4-5 days ahead of the admins so that nothing will get left behind. When the admins catch up to my work in a few days, it will save them time by not having to add the top and bottom templates. Since I haven't been entrusted with making decisions on close VfDs, I only close where the vote is uncontested. Most of these are unanimous deletes, although there have been a keep or two. If anyone has a problem with my actions, I will stop, but I do believe it's helpful. User:Carrp | User talk:Carrp 03:37, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC) ::The problem is that administrators working through /Old generally scan through the list, looking for discussions that don't already have the blue background, or—worse—by hiding closed discussions via CSS (putting ".vfd { display: none; }" in their monobook.css file). A closed discussion is usually taken to mean "this article has already been fully dealt with". They're also responsible for confirming that the vfds haven't been vandalized (for example, by someone going through and removing all the keep votes) before they delete the article, so I'm not sure that pre-closing deletes actually saves work. (I'm not, by the way, saying that this has happened; the ones that I checked on all appeared to be legitimate deletes.) ::That said, the backlog in /Old is problematic. Vfds whose result is keep, merge, redirect, or transwiki ''can'' be closed by non-administrators, and this is much more useful. Non-delete vfds, I'm told, take significantly longer to close than deletes; this is especially true for merges. —User:Korath (User talk:Korath) 03:55, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC) :::You make some good points. I have no problem with sticking to non-delete VfDs if it will be more helpful. I'm concerned about the backlog and will do what I can to help catch up.

User:Carrp | User talk:Carrp 04:01, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC) == NFL articles == :''"Re: Is there a good online source for game summaries of NFL playoff games?"'' I don't really know. Online, I have been looking at the playoff history pages on [http://www.superbowl.com/history http://www.superbowl.com/history]. But my primary sources have been: *''NFL Record & Fact Book'' (ISBN 1931933715) I have every edition since 1995. *''Total Football: The Official Encyclopedia of the National Football League'' (ISBN 0062701746) There is a chapter detailing every playoff game. But it was published in September 1999 and there hasn't been a revised edition since. *''The Sporting News Complete Super Bowl Book 1995'' (ISBN 089204523X) Obviously now out of print, it included articles on all the championship games.

I noticed that you closed a number of the old VfD decisions on the 1 March page. On several, however, you didn't actually delete the article. May I ask why? User:Rossami User talk:Rossami 03:53, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC) : I think that might be best. Unfortunately, it actually adds a step when someone closes the discussion but doesn't or can't actually delete the article. It also significantly increases the chances that the final step will get lost in the shuffle. It wouldn't be such a problem except that this "block-compress" error is creating a significant backlog of articles that are deletable but ''do'' still have blue links on VfD/Old pages. : So what to do for now... I hate to ask you to undo all your work from the past few days. I have not disagreed with a single one of your decisions. But other than reopening the discussions (removing the "closed" header and footer), how can anyone find and complete the all the deletions you tagged but couldn't complete? I was finalizing some last night (by searching on your user name) but don't have time to do them all.

User:Anilocra 16:11, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC) ::Unless, of course, Musichopper gets another name....User:Msh210 —User:msh210 16:13, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC) Thanks from me, too, for blocking them.User:Msh210 —User:msh210 16:13, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC) == TDC's 3RR block == Thank you for acknowledging that I was being goaded into a 3RR, but shame on you for not blocking Chameleon for the exact same thing you blocked me for. User:TDC 13:39, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC) == User:SUCK MY SOCK == Hi. I noticed you just blocked this vandal, a recreation of a nasty vandal from yesterday. Any chance you want to help delete the articles he created? --User:InShaneee 14:26, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Putting up an NPOV tag doesn't count against 3RR == If people remove an NPOV tag when there is unresolved discussion in Talk, then replacing it is correcting vandalism and can't be considered under three revert rule. Thanks for your unbiased concern. User:STP :"Vandalism is indisputable bad-faith addition, deletion, or change to content, made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of the encyclopedia." Wikipedia:Vandalism "Often, authors can view their articles as being NPOV, while others disagree. That an article is in an NPOV dispute does not necessarily mean it is not NPOV, only that someone (with the tact and wit to properly link to this page from it) considers it to be not NPOV." Wikipedia:NPOV_dispute If I tag an article as NPOV, the POV editors do not have a right to remove my tag until their POV edits are resolved. To remove the NPOV tag that I have a right to place on the article, is a form of vandalism, just like removing my comments from the Talk page. User:STP ==Thank you== Thank you for supporting my adminship — I vow to use my super powers for good not evil. User:Mel Etitis (Μελ_Ετητης)">User talk:Mel Etitis 09:27, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Images and media for deletion votes == * I am contacting people who previously helped to vote to delete a generally objectionable photograph by a vote of 88 to 21, and who might be unaware that immediately after that image was voted to be deleted someone posted Wikipedia:Images_and_media_for_deletion#Autofellatio 2 My objections to this, and the previous image that was voted to be deleted might be based upon reasons far different from any that you have, but I do object to it, and consider the posting of such images to be acts of asinine stupidity, which burdens the project and its major educational aims in ways that they should not be burdened, and can be extremely detrimental to the acceptance and growth of WIkipedia's use and influence. Thus far those who I believe to be in the extreme minority of Wikipedians who would like to include these images, many who have been channeled to the voting page from the article with which it is associated have dominated the voting, 23 to 12 (as of the time that I composed this message). I would like to be somewhat instrumental in shedding a bit more light upon the issue, and if possible, helping to turn the tide against its inclusion. It might also be necessary to begin making an effort to establish an explicit Wikipedia policy against explicite photographic depictions of humans engaged in erotic, auto-erotic, or quasi-erotic activities. To my limited knowledge such images have ''not'' been accepted as appropriate ''anywhere'' else within this project, and frankly I can agree with those who are casually labeled ''prudes'' for opposing their inclusion, that they should ''not'' be. '''Vitally important information that might be unwelcome by some is one thing that should never be deleted, but ''un-needed'' images that can eventually prevent or impede many thousands or millions of people from gaining access to the great mass of truly important information that Wikipedia provides is ''quite'' another matter. There are vitally important distinctions to be made. Whatever your reasons, or final decisions upon the matter, I am appealing for more input on the voting that is occurring at Wikipedia:Images_and_media_for_deletion#Autofellatio 2'''. ~ User:Achilles User_talk:Achilles 01:24, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC) == User:Sock-ster == This new user (User:Sock-ster) has blanked Wikipedia:Community Portal, National Left, Wikipedia:Village pump, and replaced them with the infamous :Image:Autofellatio_2.jpg. Also made bogus votes on VfD. All within an hour of creating the account. Can you or some other administrator deal with this intentional disruptor (who is obviously much too skilled to be a newbie)? Plus check out their user page. --User:Dmcdevit 23:58, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC) :User:Sock-ster has been blocked permanently for his vandalism. He's certainly a sockpuppet, although I'm not sure of whom. Thanks for the heads-up and happy editing! User:Carbonite | User talk:Carbonite 00:02, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC) ::I like the speedy service, you are doing a good job! --User:Dmcdevit 00:04, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC) :::Actually, I can't take the credit for this one. He was blocked a few hours ago by another admin (User:Violetriga). Thanks again! ;) User:Carbonite | User talk:Carbonite 00:06, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC) ::::I didn't even bother to check! :) Oh well, thanks for responding to my ignorant posts. Where do I find out if someone has already been blocked? --User:Dmcdevit 00:13, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC) :::::The best place to look is here: Special:Log/block. Not always an easy page to find the first time, but still very useful.

User:IZAK 09:28, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC) ==thank you!== ... for supporting my recent RFA, and the kind words; I'll do my best at the new gig. Being able to fight page-creation vandals is finally something I can do. Keep up the good work and happy editing! User:Antandrus 02:54, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC) == User:Coolcat's 3RR == Hey Carb, which article did Coolcat revert four times? You didn't mention it in your block notice. In the future, when you block a user for 3RR, can you make sure to specify the article explicitly? --User:DropDeadGorgias User_talk:DropDeadGorgias 00:49, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC) :No that's cool, I just couldn't tell which article from his immediate contributions list, so I was curious, as I'm kind of involved with a separate issue with the user surrounding Template:Kurdistan/Pictures. I speedied it, but then changed my mind about it, and I just wanted to make sure you weren't counting that as a revert on his part. Cheers. User:DropDeadGorgias User_talk:DropDeadGorgias 02:19, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC) == Links between Iraq and Al-Qaeda == Could you please vote on the proposed move Links between Iraq and Al-Qaeda → Alleged links between pre-invasion Iraq and Al-Qaeda? The vote is Talk:Links between Iraq and Al-Qaeda#Requested_move:_Links_between_Iraq_and_Al-Qaeda_.26rarr.3B_Alleged_links_between_pre-invasion_Iraq_and_Al-Qaeda. I am opposed to the move since "alleged" is POV and prejudges the evidence. Thanks. User:ObsidianOrder 11:50, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC) == recording vandalism == Good afternoon. You recently blocked anon user:206.80.199.222 for vandalism. Looking at his/her contribution history, I strongly support your doing so. It raises a maintenance question, though and I'd like your thoughts. You obviously reviewed the user's edits and reverted some of them. I assume that you reviewed all of them to see if any had been missed. When I found his/her vandalism on a page on my watchlist, I also went to the user's contribution list and reviewed all the contributions. It would have been more efficient if I had known that you'd already done the review. Is it appropriate to record on the user's Talk page that "all edits up to have been reviewed"? Would it be effective? If yes, should we suggest it on the Admin Noticeboard or is there someplace better to discuss it? User:Rossami User talk:Rossami 19:08, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC) == My RFA == Thank you for your comments on my RFA. Although the voting period just ended with a 14-8-2 vote, I will admit once and for all that I used it more as an evaluation of myself. Being promoted would have been a plus. I was more interested in who voted, when they voted, who would change their votes and when, and the comments I would receive. Hopefully I will correct the main weakness that was raised by those who voted oppose -- that I was too eager to put articles on VFD. Also, I will try to interact more with those Wikipedians who did not vote at all. As for next month, I don't know if I will nominate myself again. I might not think about it until somebody else puts me up there on RFA at a later date. Eventually, I see myself as an admin, especially as the number of articles and users continues to grow. Thanks again and good luck at improving this vast archive of free knowledge. User:Zzyzx11 User talk:Zzyzx11 09:19, 3 May 2005 (UTC) == you support "conspiracy theory" titles? == Hello Carbonite, if you have the time I was wondering if you could let me know what your exact thinking on the "conspiracy theory" title issue is? Are some subjects "truly" conspiracy theories? Is any potential ambiguity with "conspiracy theory" in a title not a big deal? thx. User:Zen-master User talk:Zen-master 01:32, 6 May 2005 (UTC) :Also, you are right about the vote and section header shouldn't say "non-neutral" as that isn't neutral (I apologize), but isn't that the same problem as "conspiracy theory" being in a title? ;-) User:Zen-master User talk:Zen-master 01:36, 6 May 2005 (UTC) ==Troll== , whom you threatened to block permanently, is still trolling.

I've blocked the IP for one month. User:Carbonite | User talk:Carbonite 18:42, 24 May 2005 (UTC) ==Thanks for your support== Thank you for voting on my RFA. Have some PI!
