지난 며칠간 피플스 큐브에 JzG(대화 기록 삭제 링크 감시 로그 보기 편집)가 전시된 것을 본 적이 있는 행동은 사이트의 다른 편집자로부터 온 것에 대해 유감일 뿐이지만, 관리자로부터 온 것을 보면, 행동거지가 모범이 되어야 하는 사람, 정책적 지식 등을 본 적이 있다.nsive, 미디어위키에 대한 그들의 기술은...내가 왜 그 시간을 보내고 있는지 의심하게 만들었어이 시점에서, 나는 이러한 변화에 따라 삭제될 수 있는 것을 작업할 때 이 정도의 부주의함에 신경을 쓰는 만큼, 이러한 행동이 규칙에 따라 선의로 이루어지는지는 상관하지 않는다.
이 문제는 여기서 진짜 문제가 아니니까 내가 할 수 있는 한 실제적인 내용 논쟁에서 멀리 떨어지도록 노력하겠다.문제 1은 예외로 한다. "독립"에 대한 완전한 오해에 관한 것이다.
- 부정확한 요약 편집:
- 인신공격:
- 요약 편집의 비효율성:
- 정책을 이해하지 못함:
- AfD 중 기타 운영 중단 편집:
여기서 나의 행동이 부적절했다면 나에게 알려주고 적절한 송어를 발라줘.
그렇지 않으면, 나는 JzG가 스나크를 끄고, 선의를 갖고, 편집에 더 많은 주의를 기울이고(특히 논쟁의 여지가 있는, 위험에 처한 기사들에 대해), 마지막으로 취한 행동의 정확한 반영에 해당하는 시민 편집 메시지를 쓰는 데 동의하는 그런 시간까지 JzG에게 물러날 것을 부탁하고 싶다.

당신이 "미개하다"고 선언하는 편집 요약들 중 단 하나도 사실 미개한 것이 아니다.때로는 으르렁거리기도 하고, 어쩌면, 그리고 온라인을 통해서도 으르렁거리기도 하지만, 백과사전에서는 으르렁거리는 것이 금지된 적이 없었다.예를 들어, Tyson 1은 즉, 이 섹션을 작성한 사람이 누구든 Tyson이 사이트의 내용에 대해 가혹하게 비판적이라는 것을 눈치채지 못한 채 출처를 사용하여 Neil deGrasse Tyson의 이름을 확인했다.이것은 독자들이 타이슨이 어떻게든 그 사이트를 지지하거나 지지했다고 믿도록 현혹되는 결과를 초래할 수 있다.노스비사우스바라노프 (대화) 04:34, 2017년 1월 9일 (UTC)[

- 맞아, 그건 완전히 거짓말이야.나는 혼란스러움, RC 순찰 같은 것에 더 많은 시간과 노력과 편집을 할애했다. 그리고 내가 이 기사를 가지고 있는 것보다 더 많은 (그리고 사실 이것은 삭제하려고 올라가기도 전에 일주일 동안 활동했고 그들의 "도움 요청"이 증가하기 전에)나는 기사, 토크 페이지, AfD 페이지, 그리고 기사를 다시 작업하기 위해 내가 가져간 사용자 공간 초안을 모두 78번 수정했다.나의 첫 번째 날 "백"은 12월 24일 (동일 링크)이었고, 그 기사는 꼬박 일주일이 지난 1월 2일까지 삭제목록을 작성하지 않았다.나는 그 날짜 이후 222개의 편집(오늘 내가 쓰는 대로 세면 232개)을 했는데, 그 날짜 이후 이 글과 관련 페이지가 내 편집의 35%를 차지했다는 뜻이다.거의 "내 노력의 대부분을" 하지 않는다.그리고 거짓말에 대해 말하자면, 나는 그에게 내가 "검증받아서 아첨하는 것 보다 덜한 것으로 판명된" 다른 사람과 연결시켜 달라고 부탁하고 싶다.나는 JzG가 그 기사를 찾는데 노력한 것에 대해 감사를 표하고 단 한 번도 제거하지 않았다.우리는 그 기사를 어떻게 묘사할 것인가에 대해 각각 두 번 반전을 했지만, 그것은 결코 제거되지 않았다.나는 잠꾸러기 양말이라는 비방을 받는 것을 싫어하며, JZG가 SPI에 관한 사건에 이 고발을 제기하거나 입을 다물 것을 제안할 것이다.나는 그러한 검토가 내가 단지 두 개의 다른 IP로부터 편집한 적이 있다는 것을 발견하게 될 것이라고 믿는다. 그 어떤 정치적인 것과 관련된 편집도 없다.나 또한 다른 계정을 관리하지 않는다.카루나몬 ✉ 18:56, 2017년 1월 9일 (UTC)[

ALEC에서 자세히 보기
여기 들어와서 어떤 벌레인지 모르겠지만 가이 씨는 요즘 다른 기사도 다루기 힘들어서 송어 한 마리를 사줘야 할 것 같아.그는 미국 입법교류협회에 난입해 BRD를 무시한 채 내가 BRD를 무시한 채 "출처를 좋아하지 않는다고 해서 믿을 수 없다"는 무시적인 논평과 함께 실질적인 편집 요약본에 응했다.내가 좀 더 건설적인 논쟁으로 페이지 토론을 시작한 후, 그의 대답은 "알겠다: 당신은 자유주의적인 소스를 싫어한다." (그런데, 웃기기도 한다)이다.그는 또한 오랫동안 지속되어온 합의에 반대하여 고의로 편집하고 있으며, 그 합의를 집행하기 위해 나를 RSN에 데려가도록 강요하고 있다.I haven't reviewed Karunamon's allegations but like them I think that while this conduct might not be sanctionable, Guy could edit less disruptively and set a better example for less experienced editors.

이는 FoCuSandLeArN(토크 · 기여 · 삭제된 기여 · 로그 · 필터 로그 · 블록 사용자 · 블록 로그)이 오늘 퇴직한 이후 다소 학술적이 되었지만, 이 사용자가 편집 7만 건을 긁어모은 것을 감안하면 커뮤니티가 인식하는 것이 중요하다고 생각한다.2주 전 그들의 토크 페이지에서 길게 논의했을 때, 나는 사용자들이 분명히 홍보 사진인 사진을 공유지에 올린 지 며칠 만에 기사를 작성한 수많은 예들을 알아챘다.그들은 그것들을 만드는 대가로 돈을 받았다는 나의 주장에 대해 이의를 제기했지만, 사용자:Doc_James는 오프위키 통신을 통해 그러한 기사들 중 적어도 하나가 실제로 지불되었다는 것을 확인했다.그러나 나에게 처음 경고한 것은 다우 케미컬 컴퍼니의 최고경영자(CEO)인 앤드루 N. 리버리스가 다음과 같이 다시 쓴 주요 내용이었다.이어플랩스는 PR 샷(Earflaps ANI for context)을 추가했다.허글을 광범위하게 사용하고 기사를 샌드박스에서 초안화하여 그들이 편집한 내용을 파악하는 것이 쉽지 않지만, 나는 사용자:스마트/노트.그 중:
- 현재 초안 작성 중인 Horizon Media의 Bill Koenigsberg(토크 히스토리 보호 링크 삭제 로그 보기) CEO.바이오의 초기 버전에는 온라인에서 찾을 수 없는 홍보 카피가 포함되어 있었다.
- 증권거래위원회 대 Banc de Binary Ltd. (토크 히스토리 편집 보호 링크 삭제 로그 보기) Banc De Binary의 POV-fork 시도(대리인이 이미 금지됨) 및 다음 사용자:Nagle은 "Wipedia 역사상 최악의 COI 문제를 가지고 있다"고 묘사했다.
- Paul_Singer_(비즈니스맨) 다시 쓰기 제거 그의 비즈니스 관행은 싱어가 거부하는 특성인 독수리 펀드의 특성을 가진 것으로 디플렉터들에 의해 설명되어 왔다.TP에 언급된 바와 같이, 그들은 "독수리"의 사용을 제거하기 위한 합의를 얻기 위해 반복적인 시도를 했다.
- Alcoa(토크 히스토리 편집 보호 링크 감시 로그 보기 보기 삭제) Rewrite는 환경 기록에서 중요한 내용을 삭제했다.기사는 이전에 알코아에서 마크에 의해 편집되었다(토크 · 기여).

- Kinros Gold(토크 히스토리 편집 보호 링크 삭제 로그 보기 보기) Major rewriting 재정적 손실을 줄이고 기업 책임 섹션을 확장한다.

이것은 그들의 편집 중 극히 일부분일 뿐이지만, 적어도 나에게는 그들이 유료 편집자가 되는 것 외에는 어떤 가능성도 보이지 않는다.그들이 우왕좌왕하고 여기서 사겠다고 경고했던 것을 생각하면 그들이 은퇴한 것은 놀랄 일이 아니다.순전히 의례적인 것이지만, 나는 여전히 우리가 그들을 금지해야 한다고 생각한다.청소하는 방법을 결정하려면 좀 신선한 생각이 필요할 거야.SmartSE (대화) 21:40, 2017년 1월 6일 (UTC)[

(그들은 미국 법정에서 패소하여 미국에서의 영업을 중단하고, 모든 미국 고객들에게 100% 고객 손실을 환불하고 상당한 벌금을 내야 했다.)2014년 이후 점차적으로 Banc De Binary, 그리고 대부분의 바이너리 옵션 산업은 대규모 사기라는 것이 밝혀지고 있다.이것에 대한 믿을 만한 출처가 여러 개 있다.[27][28].그것은 이스라엘 정부에 정치적으로 당혹스러워졌다.이스라엘 법의 허점 때문에, 이스라엘 내부에서 비 이스라엘인들을 속이는 것은 합법적이다.이스라엘 증권감독당국이 이를 바로잡으려 하고 있지만 아직까지는 합법이다.[29] 또한 바이너리 옵션 회사를 홍보하는 많은 더미 사이트들이 포함된 바이너리 옵션에 대한 나쁜 이야기를 숨기려는 큰 SEO 노력이 있다.위키피디아에서 우리가 보는 것은 이 모든 것에서 파생된 것이다.존 나글 (대화) 22:47, 2017년 1월 6일 (UTC)[

- 미공개 유료 편집에 대한 지원 금지.개인적으로 나는 그들이 다른 편집자에 의해 크게 편집되지 않은 기사들도 삭제되어야 한다고 생각한다.우리가 UPE를 손에 넣을 수 있는 유일한 방법은 UPE의 편집이 고착되지 않도록 하는 것이다.원칙적으로 이것은 우리가 이미 차단/금지된 편집자에 의한 편집을 처리하는 방법과 다를 바 없지만, 그들의 전체 내역이 ToU를 위반했기 때문에, 그것은 되돌아가야 한다.ToU를 위반하는 편집은 블록/반(ban)을 위반하여 편집한 것보다 프로젝트에 더 큰 피해를 주므로 최소한 그만큼 엄격하게 처리해야 한다.JbhTalk 00:05, 2017년 1월 7일 (UTC)[

- 지원금지와 조사는 더 나아가야 한다. 나는 BdB 기사에서 FoCu SandLeArN의 활동만 알고 있었을 뿐이지만, 그것만으로도 금지하기에 충분하다.그 기사는 우리 독자들에게 해로운 자료를 삽입하는 회사의 위키피디아에서 가장 나쁜 예가 되었다.그들은 지금으로부터 몇 년째 그것을 해오고 있다. 예를 들어 그 기사는 모닝277/위키-PR의 양말에 의해 재탄생되었다.나는 OrangeMoody 유료 편집 스캔들과도 관련이 있다고 생각한다.그 회사는 미국 증권거래위원회(SEC)와 공정거래위원회(CFTC)에 의해 미국 내 피해자들을 상대로 청탁을 하는 것이 금지되었다.이들은 이스라엘(거점을 두고 있지만 고객을 받아들일 수 없는 곳)에서 소외규제를 받는 과정에 있다.또한 최근 미국 이외의 모든 바이너리 옵션 산업이 어떻게 사기인지에 대한 많은 뉴스 기사들이 나오고 있다.대략적인 요약: 이러한 "브로커"들은 고정된 온라인 "슬롯 머신"(거래 간 최소 60초 또는 30초)을 "투자"로 판매한다.그 확률은 그들의 "고객" 즉 피해자들에게 직접 베팅하고 있는 "브로커"들에 의해 결정된다.그들은 많은 거래를 하기 위해 희생자들을 가두려고 한다.만약 어떤 기적에 의해 고객이 돈을 번다면, 그들은 단지 돈을 돌려주기를 거절한다.믿을 만한 소식통으로부터 발표된 보고서에 따르면, 고객의 80%가 손해를 본다고 하지만, 나는 그것이 단지 보수적인 것이라고 생각한다(약 20%).그리고 마지막으로 "브로커"나 그들의 소프트웨어 제공자는 "슬롯 머신"의 출력(승부 또는 손실)을 결정할 수 있는 능력을 가지고 있다.거래 기간 동안 각 고객의 평균 손실액은 약 2만 달러.
- 만약 내가 이것에 대해 약간 감정적이 된다면 미안해 - 하지만 그 사람들이 위키피디아에 그들의 "서비스"를 판매하는 것을 허용하는 것은 단지 불쾌할 뿐이다.스몰본스(smalltalk) 17:23, 2017년 1월 7일 (UTC)[
- 스몰본즈 말이 맞아이 16부작의 이스라엘 타임즈의 바이너리 옵션 산업에 대한 보도를 읽어 보십시오.[30] 우리는 NPOV가 아닌 위키피디아에 대한 십자군원정을 걱정해야 할 지점은 지났다. 주류 언론은 십자군원정을 했다.이스라엘, 런던, 프랑스, 캐나다, 미국, 심지어 루마니아에서 온 부정적인 주류 언론 보도가 있다.위키피디아가 바이너리 옵션 산업에 계속 타격을 받고 있는 것은, 이 사이트가 그들의 많은 SEO가 홍보한 가짜 뉴스/검토 사이트를 능가하는 몇 안 되는 사이트 중 하나이기 때문이다.우연히, 그것은 제휴 사업이다; 대부분의 산업에서 Banc De Binary를 포함한 수백 개의 브랜드들은 SpotOption의 제휴 브랜드들이다.그래서 우리는 다른 브랜드들도 봐야 해.이것은 점점 더 악화되고 있다; 여기 Banc de Binary의 잘 팔리는 고객들과 관련된 새로운 사기꾼들이 그들의 순자금의 나머지를 제휴한 사기 영업에 투입하도록 한다.[31] 존 나글 (대화) 20:18, 2017년 1월 7일 (UTC)[

- 그것이 직관에 반하는 것처럼 보일 수도 있지만, 나는 Banc De Binary가 삭제되어야 한다고 생각하지 않는다.공정위와 SEC의 민사소송으로 중립적인 기사 같은 것이 작성될 수 있다는 충분한 사실이 보도되었다.더 많은 정보원을 이용할 수 있게 되었다.원래의 폭로 이후 BdB 편집자들은 그 기사를 삭제하려고 노력해왔다.나는 우리가 이것에 대한 그들의 소원을 들어주어야 한다고 생각하지 않는다.

- 위에서 언급했듯이, 나는 사실 모든 비과학적 기사를 뒤져왔고, 이후에 삭제하라는 노골적인 광고에 태그를 달았지만, 나는 그 쪽과 관련이 없기 때문에 하원의 사진을 주지 않았다.마지막으로 스퍼 코퍼레이션(Spur Corporation)이 하나 있는데, 그것은 철저한 역사가 필요하기 때문이고, 그 중 하나는 내가 곧 실행하게 될지도 모른다.또한 70k 기고는 광고주제의 전부는 아니며, 그의 기여의 약 95%는 사실 과학주제의 것이었으며, 위에서 언급한 대다수는 사실 지난 2-4개월이었다.나는 지난 봄에 나온 몇 개의 광고도 간신히 포함시켰다.스위스터트위스터토크 03:26, 2017년 1월 8일 (UTC)[

'halt! stop! or other!'라는 댓글이 난무하는 건 불과 3일 전이다.이것은 당신이 누군가를 금지하기 전에 많은 가짜 비난을 할 때 사용하는 표준 템플릿과 같다.이런 헛소리 없었으면 내가 동의했을 거라고 물어볼 수도 있잖아.내가 그런 거야? 아니면 그냥 그렇게 멍청한 거야?알지?그냥 "안녕, 우리는 너의 편집이 마음에 안 들어, 네가 다칠 수 있는 키보드를 사용하고 있어, 우리가 금지에 동의할 수 있을까?"나는 그렇다고 말했을 것이다.나는 'stan is fred'라고 쓴 편집을 하고, 내가 "farb is goldwinkle"이라고 말한 텍스트가 추가된 이 꽥꽥거리는 'you are a failure' 박스를 받는다.그리고 나는 무엇을 좋아하니?뭐라고? 그리고 한 시간이나 너무 많은 시간이 지난 후, 나는 그들이 정말 바쁘다는 것을 좋아한다. 그들은 마치 세상의 종말인 것처럼 행동한다. 내 생각에 어떤 사람들은 여기에 오두막 열병을 가지고 있고, 그리고 또 은빛 권총으로 멋진 사진을 찍고 있다. 그리고 이제 그들의 집은 불이나 무언가에 흥분했을 것이다.한 두 시간 쉬어야 한다고 생각했어.그래, 분명히 내가 여기 문제야.네가 나보다 훨씬 더 좋은 담배를 피워서 다행이야, 내가 할 수 있는 말은 그게 다야.그래서 나는 그들이 전혀 신경 쓰지 않는 것을 좋아하며 나는 여전히 다른 편집이나 두 개의 편집을 한다. 나는 다른 편집에 대해 다른 누군가로부터 같은 것을 얻는다.그래서 이 모든 것을 다시 5번 반복했고, 그것이 결국 네 가지 예를 들게 하는 방법이다.하나 놓치셨네요.다시 말하지만, 공주가 정말 감동할 수 있는 것처럼 될 수도 있고, 우리는 공주가 좋은 영향력을 가지고 있다고 생각하지 않는다. 우리는 당신이 다시 나를 인정했다는 것을, 당신도 알다시피 나는 당신과 논쟁하려고 하지 않는다. 당신은 그녀가 위키피디아를 편집하는 것을 알아내는 것을 원하지 않는다. 왜냐하면 신은 내가 페이스북에 있는 것이 아니라는 것을 알고 있기 때문이다.나도 너를 위해 네 공주를 망치고 싶지 않아.다른 사람이 하는 게 낫지, 응?좋아, 그럼 좋아.내 말은, 내가 문제가 좀 있긴 하지만 난 단지 문제를 일으키려고 이 행성에 온 게 아니야, 그건 말도 안 돼.너에게도 그렇지 않다.
글쎄, 나는 네가 이해충돌을 하고 있기 때문에 네가 거짓 고발을 했다고 비난하지는 않을 거야.나는 일부러 어떤 규칙도 무시하지 않는다.나는 이것이 누군가를 철도에서 조종하기 위한 표준 템플릿이라고 생각한다.그게 너무 슬프다는 걸 아느냐고 물어봐도 돼.
내가 어떻게 박스에 체크 표시를 할 수 있는지 나는 그것이 무엇인지 전혀 모른다.분홍색 침대와 부모님이세요?누가 널 이 일에 끌어들였니?솔직하게 말해줘야 내가 도와줄 수 있어.주사기를 든 남자가 아마 운전하고 있을 때 아이를 치려고 했던 거 알지?그녀의 차와 그녀가 3년 더 버틸 수 있을까?그가 어떻게 그녀를 속였는지 모르니?나는 그것이 그녀의 차가 아니란 것을 안다. 짓을 한 거야그녀가 너를 짜증나게 하려고 무슨 짓을 했니.
나는 네가 하고 있는 일이 거의 확실히 트롤링일 뿐이라는 것에 동의해.하지만 나는 그것이 당신이 사람들을 차단하는 것을 막지는 않는다고 확신한다.그냥 물어봤으면 좋았을 텐데, 난 네 감정이 안 좋아서 동의했을 거야. 그리고 네가 날 쏘지 않았으면 좋겠어.아니면 다시 시도해봐, 만약 그 녀석들을 그렇게 만든다면.그들은 신경 쓰지 않았다.그것이 너에게 등록되지 않았기를 바란다.나인가 저 꼬마가 남자 이름표를 가지고 있는 건가? (촬영과 같은 장소에서 멈춰)
그것은 재미있거나 영리하지 않을 수도 있지만, 새를 닮은 시골의 지옥이라는 말은 없다.화학적 거세, 쿠(독소) 또는 접촉 요원의 편집을 차단하는 데 개인적인 관심이 없다고 주장하는 사람을 위해, 당신은 여기서 "나는 사기꾼 타입의 농담이 필요했었다"고 말하고 있다.위키피디아의 모든 편집은 기사나 그 이전의 모든 것을 방해한다.공교롭게도 그녀가 나와 대화하지 못하게 막아야 한다면 당신은 위키백과보다 훨씬 더 큰 문제를 가지고 있다.하지만 바라건대 내 문제가 되진 않을 거야내가 그녀에게 어떤 반감을 가질 수 있는 건 아니었어아니면 과장님.아니면 저 폴라로이드의 은색 리볼버.도대체 누가 우스꽝스러운 권총으로 아무나 쏘다니.어서 일이가 다시 이렇게 말하자 진짜 남자가 녹슨 금속조각으로 누군가의 얼굴을 찌른다.아, 벌써 해 보셨군요.그건 그렇고, 거의 다 나았어.왔다 갔다 한다.곧 흉터처럼 될 거야상은 받지 않는다."적어도 나는 도끼에서 나온 것을 아직도 가지고 있다(1994년 머리 뒤편)아직 기밀이야?무슨 일이야? 좋아, 더 많은 것들이 있지만 기억하기 힘들어서 그냥 두고 갈게.모든 관심에 감사드리며, 그것은 확실히 경험이었습니다.모두에게 안부 전해줘.주사기 들고 있던 페기였어?그 안에 무엇이 들어있는지.금박 담요와 70년대 후반 트레일헤드에 있는 보라색 재킷은 뭐야?손목은 어때?언젠가, 그녀는 누군가에게 주사기를 찔러넣다가 들킬 것이고, 그들은 텐트에서 AA에 대해 이야기할 것이다.건물 옆구리에 매달려 있는 저 닌자야?암살자?금박 담요가 계곡과 어울린다고? 심장 시간에 대한 비밀 고백은 단지 재미있는 사용자 이름만이 아니다.원당(물론, 우리는 파티에서 계산기를 가지고 있지 않았고, 학교에서 계산기를 가지고 있었는데, 아마 당신은 언급해서는 안 될 것이다.네가 '계산기'라고 먼저 말했잖아) 속임수든 뭐든 간에, 그녀가 얼마 전에 실제 생활에서 겪었던 자동차 사고에서, 아니 지난 15년 동안 네가 원하는 어떤 것이든 간에, 난 그것에 대해 아무것도 재미없다고 생각해. 그녀도 아니고, 아무 사람도 아니고, 또 그 후에라도 말이야.그것은 화학적 거세에 의해 야기된 자네아스테리아에 대한 언급인데(여러분 중 일부는 그 기사를 기억할지 모른다) 그것은 확실히 재미없다.나도 네 이름보다 더 웃긴 이름들을 봤어.아니, 잠깐, 난 몰라.하지만 난 너의 이름이 그렇게 재미있지 않아.음, 역시.내 이름이 재미없어서 막히는거야?다시 말하지만, 그건 농담이 아니야.나는 당신이 왜 돌리 파튼이 자동차 사고를 당하는 것이 농담이라고 말하는지 상상할 수 없다. 특히 우연이라고는 할 수 없는 아주 좋은 기회를 고려했을 때 말이다.일부러 그런 거라면 정말 미안하다.
뭐? 아니야.만약 네가 그것에 대해 틀렸다면, 너는 다른 모든 것에 대해서도 틀릴 수 있어. 여러분 중 세 명 이상, 현실 세계의 위키피디아들은 그 주장에 대해 어떤 것이든 상관없다.금지령을 받아들이지 않는 것은 바보 같은 짓이다. 그래서 누군가 '보러 갈 사람'을 재점검하기 위해?그는 금지에 동의한다. 그래서 그것이 일어날 것이다.극히 드문 경우를 제외하면, 어떤 사람이 와서 이것이 정말 사기꾼이라고 말하고 거절할 수 있는 기회를 제외하면, 우리 모두가 내가 말할 수 있는 바로는 내가 틀릴 수도 있다는 것을 알고 있기 때문에 나는 전혀 생각할 수조차 없는데 왜 내가 편집을 해야 하지?바로 그거야불평은 멈추지 않을 것이다.그래서 나는 '이유'가 완전히 가짜라고 생각하지만, 나는 네가 스스로에게 관심을 끌고 싶지 않고 키보드를 전혀 사용해서는 안 된다는 것을 알고 있다. 특히 온라인에 게시하지 않는 것은 공정상 약간의 광택이 필요할 수 있지만, 그 이유는 확실하다.그것은 그저 슬펐다.이건 개인 e-dollhouse고 방 정리하는 거 싫어하잖아당신이 절대적으로 *believe*라면 그들은 항상 everything2.com를 방문한다.또는 심지어 그마저도 우리 가족이고 우리는 당신이 그것에 대해 게시하는 것을 원하지 않는다. 또는 우리가 만약 독일과 여전히 전쟁중이라고 말한다면, 우리는 당신이 함께 행동하기를 원한다. (내가 아는 한, 아마도 당신은)내게 경고하지 않았었다.휴전이요? - 알아, 난 좆같은 놈이야.)나는 그 모든 것을 받아들일 수 있다.하지만 그건 정말 불쾌했어, 미안해.그것은 당신이 그들의 차를 운전하는 것을 원하지 않기 때문에 현관에 똥을 싸는 것과 같다.넌 그냥 우리가 네가 편집하는 걸 원하지 않는 것처럼 될 수도 있어. 그리고 빌어먹을 핑계로 시간 낭비하고 있는 게 아니야.악의는 없어. (여러분 중 두 명 이상이 정말로 12세 미만인 경우가 아니라면, 그 경우 아주 칭찬할 만한 일이었더라면, 당신은 당신의 수준 이상으로 멀리 떨어져 있고, 내가 할 수 있는 일은 침을 흘리는 것밖에 없었지.말 그대로 텔레비전을 켤 수도 없었다.차에 치였니?제게 알려 주셔서 감사합니다.그들은 말 그대로 나에게 항상 그러는데, 그건 그렇고, 적어도 정크 바이크 시즌이 되면 누가 그런 짓을 하는지 비난하지 않을 거야.마지막은 이스라엘 키예스였다. 만약 임이 틀리지 않았다면.DNP 767?그는 시내 곳곳을 뺑소니치고 있었다.하지만 그때 다른 사람이 그의 자리를 대신한 것이 보이네) 더 설명이 필요하면 얼마든지 말해라.진짜였어, 재밌었어, 정말 재미없었어."즐거움 없이 갇힌 것 같진 않군" 그렇지? 그리고 다시 한번 이런 긴 a*** 게시물에 대해 미안하다. - 55378008a (토크) 14:47, 2017년 1월 10일 (UTC)[ |

Darknight2149에 의한 유세
| 해결책이 무엇이든지 간에, 이 논의에서는 여기에 도달하지 못할 것이다.내가 보기에 이것은 정말로 매우 선별적인 선거 운동이었다; 그것은 괜찮지 않다.물론 동의가 있을 수 있고, 없으면, 컬리터키의 노트는 적절하지 않다. 그것들은 중립에서 너무 멀리 떨어져 있다.더 나은 해결책은 아래 제시된 바와 같이, 아마도 중립 편집자(안녕, Softlavender?)가 폐업 관리자에게 알리기 위해 배치한 중립적인 노트로 토론에 태그를 붙이는 것이다.컬리터키의 "인신공격"은 그다지 예의 바르지 않았지만 나는 그들이 어떻게 그들 위로 차단되어야 하는지 모르겠다.나는 계속할 수 있지만, 이것은 이미 꽤 오랫동안 계속되었다.드레이미스 (토크) 04:59, 2017년 1월 11일 (UTC)[ |

이제, 선거운동에 관한 규칙은 "제한된 게시물"이 허용되고, 메시지는 중립적이어야 하며, 청중은 비당파적이어야 하며(혹은 양쪽이 초대한 경우), 선거운동은 온위키적이어야 한다.나는 정확히 무엇이 "스팸" 게시물인지 모르지만, 20개의 알림은 정말 많은 것이다.관심 있는 것으로 합리적으로 추정될 수 있는 사용자에게만 통지를 게시해야 한다.예를 들어, 작성자 및 기사에 중요한 기여자.당신이 하지 않은 것은, 단지 몇몇의 사람들만이 그 기사와 어떤 상호작용을 한 적이 있다는 것이다.
그 문제에 대해서, 당신의 통지는 약간 무작위로 보인다, 나는 당신이 통보한 대부분의 편집자들이 기사나 주제, 또는 AfD와 어떤 연관성을 가지고 있는지 알 수 없다.비록 당신의 게시물이 중립적이면서도 투명하다는 것을 인정하겠소.
그렇기는 하지만, 나는 다크나이트와 동의할 필요가 없다, 단지 글에서 실제 산문의 상당 부분(약 50/60%)을 차지하는 조커(캐릭터)의 '문화적 영향' 부분만이 '기사 확대'라는 미명 아래 여기 기사에 배치된 조커(코믹스)의 같은 부분을 노골적인 모방이다.나 역시 합병이 '코믹'에서 '캐릭터'로 이루어져야 한다는 주장은 논리적인 것이라고 인정한다.
비관리자로서 나는 단지 추천만 할 수 있다. 그들은 다음과 같다; 1.AfD를 정상적으로 플레이하게 하라, 2. 삭제하면 조커(코믹스) 기사에 내용을 병합하고, 3. 기사를 '코믹스'에서 '캐릭터'로 재탕할지 여부에 대한 논의를 시작한다.나는 "캐릭터"에서 "코믹스"로 실제로 전송될 콘텐츠가 최대 6~10k바이트로 보이므로 기사에 거의 눈에 띄지 않는 영향을 미칠 것이다.나는 본론으로부터의 분열을 정당화할 수 있는 훨씬, 훨씬, 더 좋은 기사가 쓰여지지 않는 한 분열을 정당화할 이유가 없다고 본다.조커(코믹스)는 GA 기사이기 때문에 GA 기사의 요구조건에 따라 합병이 이루어진다면 어떤 합병이라도 가장 잘 처리될 것이라는 점을 명심하라.미스터 rndude (대화) 05:18, 2017년 1월 9일 (UTC)[

그것에 대해 전혀 "재미있는" 것은 없다; 이 ANI 요청은 AFD에서 두드러지게 언급되어 있기 때문에, 물론 나는 분쟁의 본질과 그것을 초래한 행동들을 조사했고, 그것들 뒤에 있는 이전 논의들도 AFD와 관련이 있을지도 모르기 때문이다.나 역시 일반 주제(만화 MoS 페이지 편집과 명명 규칙 포함)에 관여했던 이력이 있다(해석 중심인 AfD에서 나를 일종의 '전문가 증인'으로 만든다).그러나 나는 또한 주제영역에서 컬리터키와 직접 충돌한 이력이 있다.그럼, 당신이 공모자 WP를 암시하는 것은:너를 반대하는 파벌은 웃기기도 한다.

컬리 터키의 인신공격

(당신은 DC 코믹스가 출판한 출처와 그들의 출처들을 무시했다.)DC와 그들의 모회사가 그 TV쇼를 두고 수십 년 동안 폭스와의 권리 분쟁에 연루되었기 때문에, 계열사들은 본질적으로 편향되고 신뢰할 수 없다; 물론 전자는 쇼 전의 만화책과 가장 외딴 관계를 가진 어떤 캐릭터도 사실 TV쇼를 위해 만들어졌다는 것을 부정하고 싶을 것이다.)그렇다, 나는 당신이 비코믹스 문화가 이러한 캐릭터들의 발달에 있어 한 역할을 경시하고 있다는 컬리 터키의 주장에 대해 편견을 가지고 있다.당신이 계속 "인신공격"이라고 부르는 사소한 시민폭력은 이 ANI 스레드가 열리기 일주일 전에 해결되었고, 당신은 단지 지금 그것을 끄집어내고 있을 뿐이다. 왜냐하면 당신은 이 ANI 스레드가 당신에게 등을 돌리는 것을 보았기 때문이다.편견이 없는 사람은 여기선 아무도 네 말에 동의하지 않아. 그러니 SMcCandlish와 나는 단지 "편견이 있다"는 이유로 너와 의견이 다르다고 주장하려고 하는 건 도움이 안 돼.히지리 88 (聖聖) 23:58, 2017년 1월 10일 (UTC)[

Modernist와 Ewulp 둘 다 TP에 대한 적절한 논의 없이 나의 편집 내용을 되돌리고 있다.그들은 TP에 대한 논쟁을 거부하며 심지어 '분산 결의안 통지판'조차 피카소 기사에서 그들이 원하는 정보에 대한 출처 공급을 거부했기 때문에 이 문제를 종결시켰다.관리자가 개입해서 최소한 그들에게 적절한 소스를 제공하도록 요구하거나 편집된 내용을 그대로 둘 수 있다면 좋을 것이다.미리 고맙다.C.제설도 (대화) 17:46, 2017년 1월 13일 (UTC)[

- 나는 (C를 되돌리는 것 이외에는) 이 상황에서 주로 관여하지 않는 편집자다.파블로 피카소의 제수알도의 편집.주요 이슈, 그리고 C가 있는 이슈.게수알도는 이에 대해 경고를 받았고 이에 따라 차단되었고, 전쟁을 편집하고 있으며, 대화 페이지의 합의를 기다리는 것을 거부하고 있다.얼마 전, 나는 C를 주었다.인내심을 갖는 것에 대해 제설도 몇 가지 충고한다.간단히 말해서, C.게수알도는 자신의 버전의 텍스트가 유일한 정답이며 합의 없이 일방적으로 변경할 수 있다고 보고 있다.C.제수알도는 자신이 원하는 것은 무엇이든 할 수 있다고 거듭 주장해 왔다(WP:OWN) 그리고 합의의 형성을 거부한다.마찬가지로, 그는 다른 편집자가 자신의 기간 내에 응답하지 않는 것에 조급해 한다.나는 요즘 위키피디아에 너무 많은 시간을 할애할 수 없기 때문에 편집 분쟁에 대해 언급하지 않았다.그러나 지속적인 파괴적 편집(블록으로 귀결된)은 도움이 되지 않으며 C도 도움이 되지 않는다.게수알도는 합의를 위해 일하는 것에 대해 가르쳐야 한다.문제의 편집은 논쟁의 여지가 없으며, BLP 문제와도 관련이 없다.해석의 문제인 만큼 토크페이지에서 합의가 이뤄질 때까지 기사를 그대로 남겨도 아무런 해가 없다.freshacconci talk to me 17:59, 2017년 1월 13일 (UTC)[하라

RE: 2016년 11월부터 현재까지 위키백과 기사의 반복적인 악의적이고 명예훼손적인 편집에 관한 정식 고소장 등록:2016년 2~3월 위키피디아는 내가 심리에 기여한 내용을 담은 '리벤 바온' 기사를 게재했다.2016년 11월 중순부터 현재까지 한 개인(REDACTED)은 자신의 악의적인 의도를 전혀 알 수 없는 이유로 저속하고 경멸적이며 명예훼손적인 언어가 담긴 이메일에서 나를 개인적으로 공격했을 뿐만 아니라, 지지 출처와 함께 임의로 텍스트를 변경하고 삭제하는 방법으로 이 기사를 파괴하고 있다.내가 아는The following are a few examples of Mr. Sheer’s unfounded, defamatory and libelous language on Wikipedia in describing my conceptual model and research: (1) “the Bar-On research is all bunk” and “the Bar-On Model is completely bogus, is not used in practice and not widely known” [11/22/2016]; (2) “his citations are bogus, his research is non-notab르, 그리고 그는 어느 곳에서도 중요하거나 유명한 연구자로 언급되지 않는다."[11/23/2016], (3) "바-온 연구 흐름은 완전한 돌팔이"[11/26/2016]다음의 진술은 나와 나를 공격하기 위해 직접 보내진 시어씨의 이메일의 명예훼손적인 내용과 무례한 성격에 근거하여 악의적인 의도를 보여준다: (1) "당신은 f***킹 돌팔이야"와 "당신의 이론은 돌팔이야"[11/23/2016]; (2) "당신은 의사가 아니야. 박사학위는 쓰레기야. 당신 삶의 일은 쓰레기야."[11/24/2016], (3) "심리학자 전 세대를 당황하게 하고 부당한 악명을 높이려 했다"[11/25/2016], (4) "모든 저널에 사과 편지를 써서 자살하라"[12/21/2016]요청하면 시어 씨가 시작한 2016년 11월 23일부터 12월 21일까지 우리 사이의 이메일 스레드를 전부 이메일로 보내주겠다.나는 이 의사소통 내내 그에 대한 나의 반응은 ⑴ 참을성 있게 추가 정보를 제공하고, 나의 개념과 연구 결과, 감정 지능과 심리학 연구에 대한 연구의 성격에 대해 더 자세히 설명하며, ⑵ 성공하지 못한 나의 노력을 보여주는 것이라고 생각한다.mpt는 그가 내 모델, 연구, 그리고 나를 개인적으로 공격한 근본적인 이유를 더 잘 이해하기 위한 것이다.2016년 11월 30일, 시어 씨가 11월 26일 '토크'란에 올린 글에 대한 답변을 올렸다.이것은 이 문제의 본질에 대한 더 많은 정보를 제공할 것이다.이 기사에 처음 등장했던 거의 모든 내용이 검증 가능한 수많은 참고자료에 의해 조직적으로 지원되었고, 그 대부분은 동료 검토 대상이었다는 점에 유의해야 한다.지난 18년간 편집 경험이 있는 (4개 저널의 편집팀에서 활동할 뿐 아니라 2권의 책과 1개의 동료 검토 저널 시리즈를 편집한 경험이 있는) 필자는 '리벤 바온' 기사의 정보적 가치를 높일 건설적 편집을 진심으로 환영한다는 뜻을 전할 필요가 있다.그러나 내 생각에 그러한 편집은 감정적인 동기가 부여되기보다는 동료가 검토한 참고자료에 의해 지원되어야 한다.게다가 위키피디아의 행정팀과 편집계는 이러한 기본적인 접근방법에 동의하고, 기사의 학문적 가치를 높이고, 게시된 기사의 가치와 평판을 떨어뜨리는 파괴적 편집을 억제하기 위해 건설적인 편집을 장려하는 조치를 취하기를 희망한다.이 온라인 백과사전의.이를 위한 한 가지 접근방식은 무엇이 변경, 삭제 및/또는 추가되었는지, 그리고 이러한 편집 변경을 위한 정당성을 보다 세심하게 검토하는 것이 될 것이며, 나는 또한 기사를 파괴적으로 편집하려는 여러 번의 시도가 관련 개인의 추가적인 시도를 차단하는 것이 될 것이라고 예상한다.2017년 1월 7일 시어씨에게 '편견 없는' 편지를 보낸 것 외에 (1) 위키백과 자원봉사 대응팀 2017년 1월 8일, (2) 공공기물 파손에 초점을 맞춘 위키백과 봉사단에게 공식 항의 메일을 보냈다.오늘, 위키미디어의 전무이사에게 인증된 서한이 우송될 것이다.나는 또한 이 점에 관하여 변호사와 상담하고 있다.나는 이 메시지의 길이에 대해 사과한다. 그러나 나는 위키피디아의 학문적 명성뿐만 아니라 내 직업적 평판에 대한 심각성과 잠재적 손상뿐만 아니라 당면한 문제를 묘사하기 위해 가능한 많은 배경 정보를 제공하고 싶었다.나는 이 메시지에 대한 당신의 응답을 받고 또한 당면한 특정 문제에 효과적으로 대처하기 위한 조치를 취하고 다른 기사에 지시되는 유사한 미래의 행동을 다루기 위한 조치를 취한다면 매우 감사할 것이다.R.Bar-On (대화) 19:09, 2017년 1월 13일 (UTC)[

- I endorse this complaint. I see an ongoing pattern of disruptive edits, including POV pushing, false allegations in edit summaries, and failure to respond to concerns raised on their talk page (except to namecall). I do also hear an obvious WP:QUACK. What I don't know is whether there's a larger context or longer history in play. IPs similar to the IP of the above complainant have engaged in some talk page back-and-forth with User:Human like you/the problem IP (e.g., see recent history at Talk:The New York Times, and have now posted to my talk page; they clearly know their way around the wiki.

I have witnessed (and sometimes been targeted by) the disruptive POV editing and aggressive poisoning of talk page discussions by the reported User 213.74.186.109 (talk) aka Human like you (talk) over several months and articles, in particular Syrian Democratic Forces and Rojava (see talk pages and talk page archives of the articles). -- 2A1ZA (talk) 02:44, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
From a non-involved party, I can see several problematic issues occurring here on both sides. Starting with 2003:77:4F0C:9A16:B9F1:5AA8:B1A7:37E9 (talk · contribs · WHOIS). IMO, this discussion that 2003:77 IP is referring to was closed way too hastily. Obviously the other IP should not have re-opened that discussion, but that is honestly no grounds for a talkpage warning. Instead of constantly posting template warnings on the other IP's talkpage, you need to try to tell them specifically what the problem is, and how they should go about resolving it. Just posting templates on their talkpage without any context is not appropriate, especially because their edits are not obvious vandalism.
- @Aurato:: 1) Concerning IP 2003:77:4F0C:9A16:B9F1:5AA8:B1A7:37E9 you mentioned above: This was my first encounter with this user. First I thought it was vandalism (in the sense of making an article deliberately worse), because at that point I thought that nobody could reasonably believe what he added. However, now I think that he is so much influenced by Turkish propaganda that he actually believes it.
- 2) The reason for the talkpage warning was not only the reopening of the closed discussion but also the continued WP:SOAPBOXING.
- 3) This and all other issues have been explained to this user again and again by several users including me through talk page warnings, sometimes with further explanations, and edit summaries. But as IP 213.74.186.109 this user ignored these warnings, repeatedly "cleaned" his talk page and went on with the same problematic edit pattern. Because of these "cleanings" it is difficult to figure out what happend on this talk page. 84.187.146.101 (talk) 21:50, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
Now moving on to 213.74.186.109 / Human like you. Aside from the personal attacks, harassment, and POV pushing, the fact that the user behind 213.74.186.109 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), obviously created Human like you (talk · contribs) in order to avoid scrutiny is very inappropriate. (Note: There is a difference between creating an account because you want to become a registered user, and creating an account to try to avoid being scrutinized). Also, the IP in question has had a 48 hour block for edit warring, which was (probably) due to the constant POV pushing. From what I can tell, their behavior has not improved much, if at all in regards to the reasons for that block. I'm not an admin, and I don't know whether or not a block should be put in place; that is up for an admin to decide. Anyhow, 2003:77 and 213.74.186.109 / Human like you, you two are in the middle of a content dispute. Instead of harassing each other on the article's talkpages, please work this out in a respectful manner. And 213.74.186.109, you really need to stop using inappropriate edit summaries. It does nobody any good at all, and you're only putting more gasoline into the fire...
In order for any legitimate administrative action to occur (or not, if they decide that there is no action needed), I will be pinging EdJohnston to help sort out this situation, because it seems like he has been involved with both of the editors here, and EdJohnston was the admin that placed the 48 hour block back in December. Aurato (talk) 05:14, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- As yet there is no reason to think the subject of this complaint is avoiding scrutiny. The IP, 213.74.186.109, has stated on his user talk that he created a registered account as User:Human like you. Since 1 January his registered account is the only one who has made any article edits. I suggest that the filer of this report, 2003:77:4F1D:B929:CC3B:3956:435B:2E58 (talk · contribs), should also create an account if they think they expect to remain active in complex disputes like the Syrian Civil War and want to get much sympathy from admins. Making an ANI complaint from a single-use IP could be viewed as another way of avoiding scrutiny for your edits. EdJohnston (talk) 05:52, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- @EdJohnston: Instead, the IP chooses to file a multi-faceted report at WP:ANEW. O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 16:25, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- 1) I didn't intent to allege in my report that it was a case of WP:Sock puppetry, but I think it is important that these are not mistakes of a beginner but continuation of long term problematic behaviour.
- 2) At the moment I'm the IP 2003:77:... (and in rare cases 84.187... ) and as such involved in discussions, e.g. at Talk:Rojava. Also, I don't want one of my first registered user edits to be filing an edit warring report. In the longer term, I hope at some point there will be a good moment to take a WP:WIKIBREAK, and maybe, afterwards, I will come back as registered user (so that the registered user edits do not mess up with the IP edits). In the meantime, I hope other users consider Wikipedia:IPs are human too. 84.187.146.101 (talk) 21:50, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
User Human like you (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) still tries to add soapboxing and the personal attacks he initially made as 213.74.186.109 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) to Talk:The New York Times (edit subject history links watch logs), though this thread had been closed by another user on Dec 27. 2003:77:4F2E:5887:D61:7010:CD0E:EB22 (talk) 18:51, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Beatley and Cassianto
Cassianto (talk · contribs) appears to be WP:HOUNDING Beatley (talk · contribs), broadly reverting his/her constructive contributions across multiple articles:
There are more, just look at recent contribs. Add to that a seriously uncivil edit summary in response to @JamesBWatson: [114]. Note that this editor has been blocked more than 7 times for WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL issues. Toddst1 (talk) 20:08, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- With respect to the report at AIV, I'm going to decline it, in lieu of the discussion here. RickinBaltimore (talk) 20:11, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Maybe David Eppstein and Nikkimaria could offer their views with regards to Beatley? CassiantoTalk 20:27, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) While the "fuck off" edit summary obviously isn't cool, it looks like Beatley is wandering around Wikipedia unilaterally adding infoboxes to articles without discussion, which isn't explicitly forbidden but is certainly frowned upon, particularly once objections have been raised. It's standard practice on Wikipedia when one spots an editor doing something problematic to check their contributions to see if they've been causing the same problem elsewhere and fix them if so, and doesn't remotely constitute "hounding". ‑ Iridescent 20:29, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Asking "Why is this infobox an improvement" is a poor rationale for reverting, unless the editor asking the question has WP:OWN issues. - Mlpearc (open channel) 20:30, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Mlpearc, note User talk:Beatley/Archive 1#Templates (one of 47 posts on Beatley's talkpage of which by my count 40 are warnings). It's already been explained to him by multiple people why adding Wikidata templates without discussion is problematic unless the data in question has been verified (WP:INFOBOXREF states that information in an infobox without a citation has to be present in the article, and his infoboxes aren't complying with that), and why his edits are being reverted. ‑ Iridescent 20:35, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Iridescent Thanx for pointing that out. - Mlpearc (open channel) 20:40, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- If you're going to count warnings on Beatley's talkpage, please note that some (including valid BLP warnings) have been removed by Beatley, as is his right. Beatley seems to me to have a hair trigger for calling any disagreement with his edits "hounding"; one of the comments he removed was my explanation that, contrary to his accusations there, my reversions of his userboxes were not hounding, because I had only reverted changes that I had seen on my own watchlist. There's a bigger issue here, which is whether the "experimental" Wikidata-based infobox template that Beatley keeps adding should be used on Wikipedia at all; it doesn't meet our standards for reliable sourcing of BLPs, and many of Beatley's edits have had the effect of adding unsourced personal information (such as birthdays) to BLPs, when that information did not already appear in the text of the article and did not have a valid source even over on Wikidata. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:33, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- (edit conflict)The Wikidata-based infoboxes are certainly less-than-ideal and shouldn't be added willy-nilly to pre-existing articles. However, I'm most concerned with the removal of infoboxes added by Beatley to articles he created himself, such as Dušan Cekiḱ and Elias Plavev. If the desire of an article creator to omit an infobox is reason enough to leave one out, shouldn't the opposite also be true? clpo13(talk) 20:38, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

- As far as I can see, Beatley has been adding pointless Infoboxes and I'm not the only one who has been challenging them about this. This user is adding them on an industrial scale and although well within their rights to do so, there has to be a level of common sense applied:
And these I've found at random! I apologise for loosing my cool by swearing, I really do, but being templated, reverted, and then hauled to two drama boards with no discussion at any of the talk pages really pisses me off. Not to mention JamesBWatson's failure to warn the other editor. JamesBWatson has come across as completeley biased, alerted by his friend, Toddst1. CassiantoTalk 20:37, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Let's try this week old discussion for starters and today's missives. We hope (talk) 20:40, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- "editing warring about infoboxes is childish don't you think? aren't you increasing the likelihood infoboxes will be everywhere with the battleground behavior? User:Beatley Beatley (User talk:Beatley talk) 19:49, 10 January 2017 (UTC)"
- "well, defending the status quo is charming, but it might get you run over. i like the anti-infobox anti-wikidata anti-WMF ideology; it just does not have much future. do not mass revert my edits and we will get along fine. do it and you will have a fight. User:Beatley Beatley (User talk:Beatley#top talk) 19:37, 10 January 2017 (UTC)"
- Note also that Beatley appears to be importing garbled machine translations using WP:CXT (example, example, both from today), which isn't explicitly forbidden (he's over the 500 edit threshold) but is certainly a bright red flag. Maybe he is
fluent in English and understands the source language well enough to be sure that the meaning has not been scrambled or distorted
(the requirement to use CXT) in French, Hungarian, Polish, Macedonian, Spanish, and German, but it seems unlikely. ‑ Iridescent 20:46, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
Making mass changes is bound to get somebody's attention. Suggest Beatley stop with the infobox creations & get a consensus for those creations. Let's talk this out :) GoodDay (talk) 20:53, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'd also like to note that the majority of infoboxes I have left in situ. I've reverted the ones I consider to be WP:DIB. CassiantoTalk 20:58, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Is this the sort of battleground behaviour expected of "the victim" here? CassiantoTalk 22:09, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- A threat?, surely not. This editor is a victim right? CassiantoTalk 22:44, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Beatley's contributions have been problematic. He's received repeated requests to slow down with adding Wikidata templates and to amend/source added info as needed, but he appears to believe that it is not necessary to provide sources for infobox data even if that data appears nowhere in the article. Some of his template additions have been completely empty, while others have had information that obviously contradicts the article text (eg. differing years of birth, without sourcing) or is obviously wrong (eg. saying a person was born at "geographic location"). He's removed polite explanations of why he is incorrect with claims of "hounding", and has in several case restored his reverted edits without addressing reasons for reversion, particularly with regards to sourcing. While he may be acting in good faith, I don't think he has the necessary understanding needed to use Wikidata-enabled templates appropriately. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:15, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: Mass addition of infoboxes that only contain two lines is as disruptive as mass creation of redirects, if someone asks you to stop. And I say that as someone who generally prefers infoboxes, providing they perform a clear service of organizing and presenting sufficient pertinent information. Softlavender (talk) 03:28, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- I have neither the time nor the inclination to look into the entire thing, but found a few things worth mentioning. I found this edit by Beatley unacceptable and gave them an "only warning" for personal attacks on their talk page. Cassianto may be a lot of things, but he's no troll, and the astonishing amount of bad faith carried in that term is blockable; I hope they won't repeat it. In that same diff you can see Cassianto use the same word, but (wisely) couched in a different phrase; Cassianto, please tone it down. Your use is more acceptable/less blockable, but still not OK. I'm not warning on your talk page since you likely don't wish to see my beautiful name there, but I hope this suffice. As for the recent edits, this revert by Cassianto is very understandable, and Beatley better stop edit warring.
All of this is much less important than the larger matter. There is some agreement here over the status of Wikidata and what we can and cannot do with it; Beatley would do well to listen to Nikkimaria's sage advice or they will run into a block--that's pretty much a guarantee--for disruption, edit warring, adding unverified information, or [feel free to supply a few more reasons]. Importing unverified information in this way makes the infobox more important than the article and is not an improvement. Drmies (talk) 05:14, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Block Beatley should have been blocked already, for edit warring and trolling.[115][116][117] 50.0.136.56 (talk) 06:27, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Topic ban Beatley from Wikidata infoboxes, and infoboxes that provide nothing more than birth/birthplace/death, alma mater, occupation. I don't really know how Wikidata infoboxes arose, but I don't like them. I would support a ban on Wikidata infoboxes sitewide (i.e, not just Beatley), or make a it guideline that if they are removed they should not be replaced. Softlavender (talk) 12:50, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Cmt If someone's this bullheaded, a nuanced restriction like that is asking for wp:gaming or rechannelling of technique to pursue the same agenda. If a topic ban comes down imho it's better to make it against any infobox editing broadly construed, or whatever the existing topic-banned pro- or anti- infobox zealots are under (I know there are some). 50.0.136.56 (talk) 05:17, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- For the record, I have only reverted Beatley once and that was on Lady Rachel Workman MacRobert, an article I created, and the only article I have had any interaction with him/her on. Since then Beatley has accused me of article ownership; the same diff shows Beatley trying to intimidate(?) me with the Women in Green Project - and note that s/he did leave a comment on that Project talk page making the wildly inaccurate suggestion the article was close to GA based on his/her use of ORES. Eventually I left a brief comment on his/her talk page that ended up resulting in a rather bizarre "conversation" which included scathing comments from Beatley such as "why would i try to improve the article if you are camped on it? i'm surprised you have not admin locked it. go for it", "talk pages are a vast wasteland, given behavior such as yours", "ORES is more reliable than you", "do not mass revert my edits and we will get along fine. do it and you will have a fight" and "well, defending the status quo is charming, but it might get you run over". What is actually meant by "it might get you run over"? Perhaps someone could let me know if there are some kind of cultural differences I'm missing but where I come from getting run over means hitting someone or something with a car; so is s/he threatening me with physical harm? Yet despite this behaviour by Beatley, the OP in this thread, several admins and other commentators feel it is Cassianto's behaviour that is the problem? Really? SagaciousPhil - Chat 13:07, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Meh, I assumed it was a metaphorical run over rather than a literal one. User reads like a non-native English speaker (or somewhere where it has diverged from the standard) so put it down to idiom. But from the above, most of the people here appear to agree that Beatley is in the wrong. I was expecting a lot more anti-Cassianto comments given it involves infoboxs (and Cassianto). I think its time for another RFC on the use of Wikidata however. Only in death does duty end (talk) 13:19, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- So I'd be safe to go outside now? ;-) I wasn't really suggesting that I was actually frightened/terrified or worried about my safety, more that I was trying to highlight it could plausibly be read that way and, when coupled with the other poor behaviour, is far worse and way more disruptive than Cassianto occasionally muttering what some seem to consider a "naughty word" yet the OP is seeking sanctions against Cass, whose talk page was being littered with warnings. I even asked one of the admins who was warning Cass to look at Beatley's behaviour but that was ignored. SagaciousPhil - Chat 13:50, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thats a polite suggestion. An administrator warning is 'Dont do this or you will receive administrative action'. If you are talking about the template, well anyone can use templates. JamesBWatson was just suggesting Cassianto might catch more flies with sugar than vinegar. Last of a long line of people to do that (self included)... Its not worked yet but we can hope :D FYI though, a good rule of thumb is, if someone hasnt replied promptly, they are probably busy. Wait 24 hours. I have lost count of the number of people who expect a response within the hour. This is a volunteer project. Its not an urgent issue. (some) People have lives.

- I am not happy with the editing of either editor. However, I have blocked Beatley for persistent disruptive editing, specifically for persistent reverts on a number of articles, which all put together amount, as I see it, to parts of one big edit war in the circumstances. The block is just for 12 hours, as a warning really. I shall leave it for others to decide if any more actions are needed, for either or both of the editors in question.

Rollback?
Beatley is currently was blocked (now expired) by JamesBWatson, and hasn't edited since the block. Is it appropriate to roll back his/her disputed infobox additions? There are quite a lot of them. 50.0.136.56 (talk) 05:29, 12 January 2017 (UTC) ((updated)
- Unless we are going to get rid of the automated Wikidata infoboxes entirely, I don't think so. Some (the disputed ones) are unhelpful, but many appear harmless or constructive. And I say this after having gone through a sample of a few hundred of the articles that use the box (many added by other editors than Beatley) and getting rid of the ones that I thought were detrimental — these were definitely only the minority of them. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:50, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
Jimiwriter
The user Jimiwriter has declared that they are a paid editor editing on behalf of another user, Akinpelu1990, who was blocked for promotional editing. The page they created, Jeffrey Phillips (lawyer), was marked for speedy deletion as being created by a blocked user. If someone is a paid representative of a blocked user(who I presume paid the person after being blocked since they couldn't edit), should they be blocked as well? 331dot (talk) 11:57, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- I was originally unaware of this thread, but have deleted the article in question. I'm not sure about blocking the user (I'm torn between considering if they are a sockpuppet or a meatpuppet) so I've err'd on the side of good faith and given them a final warning for using Wikipedia for promotion/advertising. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if another admin popped along and blocked them for being an advertising-only account -- Samtar talk · contribs 12:50, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- Maybe they will get blocked for promotional editing etc. but (disclosed) paid editing in itself is not grounds for blocking under policy, and AFAIK the employer's identity does not change anything to that. I can imagine a scenario where User:Boss of BigCorp tries to write an article, gets blocked and speedy-deleted, realizes their approach may not be ideal and then asks User:Boss's underling who knows internet communities better to do the work. I do not see anything more reprehensible than usual paid editing.
- One might argue though that "on the behalf of Akinpelu1990" is not a correct disclosure for the purposes of the ToU. Maybe the real name is needed. IANAL, but the only place where I see "name" rather than "identity" needs to be disclosed is in the Template:Paid documentation, which seems both legally thin and morally hard to block for.

- On the Origin of Species (edit talk history protect delete links watch logs views)
- Stan Giesbrecht (talk · contribs)
Stan Giesbrecht has made a total of 253 edits since his account was created on 2 December 2015. Most edits concern Charles Darwin and On the Origin of Species. Would uninvolved editors please assess Talk:On the Origin of Species and provide advice on how to proceed. In particular, is this addition suitable for an article talk page? The editor does not want advice about talk page procedures from those involved and I'm hoping that a discussion here will resolve the issue. Johnuniq (talk) 04:31, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I read thru here. It seems to me to be a case of WP:LISTEN.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 06:33, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Having tried to read the editor's posts, I would say that the key guideline is too long, didn't read, and that the editor is posting a complaint that is far too long to be read in a reasonable time, and that the editor should be cautioned not to filibuster. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:28, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Blocked for two weeks. The huge long post Johnuniq links to is certainly egregious, with four screenfuls (on my good big screen) of opposition research on Dave souza, which goes back a year and expands into frequent references to the nefarious and WP:OWNY actions of "you [=Dave] and your friends" and "your supporters" at the article, and even into an attack on "the left" generally, of which Dave and his "friends" Johnuniq and User:JzG are construed as shining examples. Note that the linked edit restores a rant which had been removed by Johnuniq; it has now again been removed, by a different editor, who I suppose thereby becomes another "friend". I see I warned Stan Giesbrecht in July 2016, in some detail, that he'd be blocked if he persisted in filling up Talk:On the Origin of Species with personal commentary on other editors.[118] I'm afraid I then lost sight of the matter, overwhelmed by the lengthy arguments that followed at User talk:Stan Giesbrecht, and by the fact that the Darwin pages aren't under discretionary sanctions, so I couldn't place a topic ban. That's a lazy admin. :-( While I blocked Stan Giesbrecht for 48 hours in August 2016, specifically for disruptive editing on the article itself, I wish I had followed up on my warning about talkpage misuse sooner, and now I have. Blocked for two weeks. Bishonen talk 17:23, 14 January 2017 (UTC).
- The user is clearly humour impaired. User:JzG/ThoughtPolice is obviously ironic.

Somebody called Emir of Wikipedia is removing my comments at the above and has done so two times now. As per WP:TPOC I believe this user is not allowed to do this. Can someone please have a word and restore my comments; please hat if nessersary. As per WP:BRD, Bernard Lee should also be restored back to its last stable version and a discussion should be had to establish the justification for adding this infobox. Please note: rather than calling the editor a beastly name or telling them to "fuck off", as is customary, I've decided to adopt this approach as folks keep telling me it's the thing to do. I do hope I'm right. CassiantoTalk 18:33, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi has since reverted and restored the comments. The user has also sought to remove the conversational edit summary. Other than a quiet word in their ear about how to conduct themselves, I don't think anything else is required at this stage, but who knows what the night will bring. I hate the fact I've come here and I'll AGF that the editor in question now understands the process. Please archive and if it continues, I'll consider my options again.

- The edits done by "Pahlevun" have completely restructured the article against the organization, MEK/PMOI. He has done 195 edits some by "Denarivs" adding completely negative content and removing any positive or neutral content about Iran's main opposition. He has been removing any attempts to balance any parts of the documents for over a month now and is doing the same thing on another page related to the Iranian opposition, "National Council of Resistance of Iran". This is not the fair practice on Wikipedia and anyone reading the articles will see that "pahlevun" & "Denarivs" have an agenda to discredit that organization. I have checked their talk page and also the article's talk page and they have been warned about the trend of biased editing, but they have kept of repeating and adding more negative material.

This username is an alternative account.
or nuance it with some kind of explanation (if you have used other accounts in the past, perhaps you should name them). Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 23:33, 12 January 2017 (UTC)- Irrespective of whether or not Pahlevun has any other active accounts, I don't see any reason to think Denarivs is the the same editor as Pahlevun. Their edit histories are fairly different as is their commenting style. If NickRovinsky didn't intend to suggest they were socks, I suggest he? need to take great care with wording as "He has done 195 edits some by "Denarivs" adding completely negative content" seems to imply they are. If he did intend to suggest they are socks, I think the accusation needs good evidence or should be withdrawn else it may be seen as a personal attack. Incidentally eihter Pahlevun or NickRovinsky should have notified Denarvis about this discussion. I've done so now. As an aside, other then the alternative account thing, Pahlevun's user page is weird. Their English may not be perfect but it's far from en-0. Actually if it were they shouldn't generally be editing articles directly and should only be trying to discuss matters when it's really important. Nil Einne (talk) 06:09, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

- Comment: OK, so we've established that Pahlevun and Denarivs are two different users. And that NickRovinsky has posted a blatant attack on Pahlevun's talkpage and that he has also tried to demonize Denarivs. Thus far, NickRovinsky's efforts seem to be focused on People's Mujahedin of Iran, an article which is experiencing a lot of edit-warring this month. Today, EdJohnston placed the article under extended confirmed protection for one year, as detailed here: [119]. Discussion should proceed on the article's talk page. NickRovinsky is warned that any further accusations against other editors may result in being blocked from editing. This should probably cover all bases.

Bullying and threatening [120] over a pet project that is supposedly finished (per the talk page) and fixed a month ago. Useddenim (talk) 18:30, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, he seems to be asking about a new change, which you just reverted. I see nothing problematic with his original edit, and this hardly seems a matter for ANI. If this is a "pet project" of his then it appears to enjoy consensus. Why did you revert? Mackensen(talk) 18:42, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'd like to provide some background to this matter. In mid-2016, there was an effort to rename New York (currently an article on the state of New York) on the theory that the primary topic of the term is the city. I was not involved in the substance of that effort except in organizing an admin panel to close the discussion. However, it was noted that there are many incorrect incoming links, so after the discussion was closed, I initiated a project to fix those incoming links. Since New York, at the time, had roughly 119,000 direct incoming links, it was impossible to fix them merely by pecking through the "what links here" page. In order to isolate links that needed fixing, I obtained the consensus of the community in a discussion with relatively strong participation at Talk:New York#Proposed action to resolve incorrect incoming links, to pipe all links intended to point to the state through New York (state). Through this effort, we fixed over 22,500 errors - links that were pointing to "New York" but that were intended to point to New York City (by far the largest source of errors), New York (magazine), New York University, and other targets. As of this point, we have reduced the number of incoming links to about 180 ambiguous cases, where it is difficult to tell whether New York City is intended, or some other place in the state of New York. My comment to Useddenim about the matter being resolved reflected that a template (not the one at issue here) which was causing a direct link was no longer causing that direct link. My edit to Template:NJTransit-Raritan-infobox reflected the consensus in the aforementioned discussion, and my edit summary identified the consensus being implemented. The reversion was incorrect, and I would rather the reverting editor learn to correct themselves in the first instance than to be constantly correcting them. I realize that there are some practices in Wikipedia that are unintuitive at first glance, and that editors might not grasp that they are needed to address larger problems, but I expected my edit summary to address that concern. bd2412T 19:09, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

- What BD2412 is doing is a little unusual, but there seems to be a consensus for it on Talk:New York, as summarized in the closure by R'n'B. The tone of BD2412's message was somewhat officious, but Useddenim's framed his complaint in a way that's disingenuous at best, deceptive at worst: BD4212's remark that "This appears to be resolved now" clearly applies to the Maple Leaf template (although editing that was an error on this part) and it's not clear why Useddenim thinks that it idemnifies his recent changes to the Raritan Line infobox, which linked to "New York (state)" at the time of the remark. Looking over BD2412's talk page history, I see a total of three queries or complaints about this series of changes, mostly resolved satisfactorily; given the scope of the changes (several tens of thousands? of semi-automated edits), I think it's fair to say that he's not unresponsive or over-bold in his mass editing. I don't see anything in BD2412's conduct that's ripe for AN/I at present; if there's an objection to the substance of his changes, it should go to Talk:New York first. Suggest closure with no action. Choess (talk) 20:07, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, but let's also remind BD that language like "take such steps as are necessary to cause you to conform with this consensus" is not helpful, and that in general we don't make editors conform with anything; they just need to not disrupt, and should be warned polity, not threateningly. Dicklyon (talk) 20:47, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- BD2412's short [message of 02:01, 18 December 2016, coupled with the fact that the discussion was closed led me to believe that the overall problem had been fixed. [121][122] And despite JFG's excellent suggestion to provide “a permanent explanation of why links to the state must be piped, without forcing puzzled editors to read the [entire Talk: thread]”, I didn't notice anything that clearly indicated that this is to be a continuing WP policy. If BD2412 had taken the time to explain, rather than use the language and phrasing he did, this thread wouldn't have been started. Useddenim (talk) 21:04, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I linked to the relevant discussion in my edit summary, and again in my post on your talk page. bd2412 T 21:18, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- (Summoned by ping) There are no grounds to condemn BD2412's conduct. That being said, the overall problem can only be fixed by getting consensus on the New York (state) title change. That probably won't happen for a while, so we're stuck with maintaining the kludge… Useddenim, where do you think the permanent explanation should go, and do you have any suggestions how to phrase it more clearly? — JFGtalk 21:29, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- There's the rub. Ideally, some sort of warning should come up when the Save changes button is pressed if the string
[[New Yorkor[[New York]]appears in the edit. Failing that, it should probably be stated in bold text at the very top of Talk:New York (as the #Proposed action to resolve incorrect incoming links thread will eventually be archived). Useddenim (talk) 22:22, 14 January 2017 (UTC) - A further thought: can whatever mechanism that informs BD2412 of a new New York link be tweaked to notify the editor who added that link of the situation and preferred alternate? Useddenim (talk) 22:25, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- There's the rub. Ideally, some sort of warning should come up when the Save changes button is pressed if the string
- Useddenim I admit it seemed clear to me from looking at the talk page that it would have to be a more or less permanent maintenance project, but I was reading pretty carefully to figure out what this was about. I apologize for characterizing your complaint as "deceptive"; I can see from your remarks that this was a good-faith misunderstanding. BD2412, looking at the "dispute resolution clause" and your editing interests on your talk page, you seem to be comfortable operating in a legal or legalistic venue. You may not see anything undue about "Please indicate whether you are willing to conform your conduct...," but there's something about the register of that phrase that will make people bristle, more so than if the same sentiment were expressed in informal terms. Anyway, both of you now seem to be on the same page as far as why this is happening; maybe move the discussion to Talk:New York to figure out how to avoid misunderstandings while carrying out this maintenance in the long term? Thank you both, it's pleasant to see de-escalation rather than escalation here. Choess (talk) 00:08, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- These are all valid points. My response to being reverted could have been clearer and less aggressive. I also agree that there needs to be some more formal system in place to inform editors of this project when they create links that conflict with it. It was not my intent to make this a permanent thing, but to continue it until the number of incoming links to New York reached zero, which would make it easy to track new errors. As it stands, this would require the repair of the 180 remaining stubborn links. Once those are done, a system for tracking new links would be sufficient to fix any new errors. On the other hand, if New York becomes a disambiguation page, which is another possibility, then links to New York will receive the same kinds of alerts and repair efforts as links to other disambiguation pages. bd2412 T 00:26, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

- Recommend immediate close with no action. One single aggressive talk-page post does not warrant an ANI thread.

It was suggested to me that I either drop this warning [123] , [124] or report this [125] in which the user obliquly implies other users of bias.
It is rather indirect, but it is clear to me the user is implying that anyone who refuses to allow the word Arab to be used do so for reasons of disliking the word "Palestinian" and of (in effect) supporting ethnic cleansing. There is an element of overreaction to my ANI, but only because I was warned to drop it or report it. I have an aversion to this kind of moral blackmail (for that is what it is).
And heShe does say another user is being disingenuous, hardly not commenting on the user.

By the way, the speed at which the IP undoes my edits or that by others is so high that it makes me think it is a bot script, not a human who is doing this. Consider running a checkuser if this is not a first. huji—TALK 00:57, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Huji, this is actually the wrong board to report such problems. The proper venue is WP:AIV if the edits are actual WP:VANDALISM. If the edits are merely disruptive but not vandalism, you first need to warn the editor on their talk page, using one of the "edit warring" warnings from WP:WARN. (I have already done that for you just now.) If they persist, you need to report them at WP:ANEW. If after all that there is still disruption later on, then request semi-protection (which will prevent IP edits) of the article at WP:RFPP, and explain the ongoing IP vandalism.

Greetings all. Allow me to point out the user Pinksugar77. They were recently blocked from editing for 31 hours by Widr for persistently making disruptive edits.
Over the past couple of days, this pattern has emerged again. As it's not strictly a case for WP:AIV I thought I'd raise it here - "Edits aren't vandalism" is the usual response I've seen at AIV for cases like this. Thoughts? Exemplo347 (talk) 17:32, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi all,
There appears to be some mischief afoot on this page to do with cut-and-paste page moves. I would fix it myself, but I'm not good with WP:MOVE-y stuff, because... well, for most people there's a part of the brain that functions to remember where they left their car keys and work ID card, but mine seems to contain a concise history of Western visual art from 1850 to the present instead.

- Saw this after the fact - I've moved the page content back to Akita (dog) and have left Akita Inu as a redirect, deleting the other pages that were created in the process (Akita (page) and Akita (page C)).

User:Грищук ЮН
This editor has been endlessly adding unsourced material (mostly as bad machine translations from Russian) and WP:OR to all sorts of articles. They've had several warnings, including a level 4, but it keeps on coming. I could simply report this as vandalism, but something tells me that WP:ANI is the better place to fix this.
Here's one good example: in an article about a military ship, editor has added a long, rambling, unsourced, incomprehensible series of tangents on language, including an anecdote about a schoolboys' saying: [128], [129]
Here's another, in the same article about the ship, a long and unsourced analysis of a photo of one sailor: [130].
Have a browse through the edit history of Mignon desires her fatherland, and you'll find the editor tried again and again to add WP:OR, including a long poem in Russian about the editors' feelings on first seeing the painting (with machine translation to English alongside), endless unsourced tangential anecdotes, and so on. Editor seemed quite mystified that I and other editors kept removing it, and instead created their ideal presentation at User:Грищук ЮН/Draft, with all sorts of unsourced pet theories about Scheffer's real, hidden meaning in the painting.
User:HitroMilanese tried with admirable patience to explain to Грищук ЮН the problem of WP:OR at User talk:HitroMilanese#Jesus in a female guise and User talk:HitroMilanese#User:Грищук ЮН/Draft The friendly advice given there does not seem to be sinking in: Грищук ЮН still continually adds WP:OR to nearly every article they touch. Any advice on how to fix this problem would be welcome. Wikishovel (talk) 22:05, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

- @Ymblanter:- below, sorry, forgot to ping. O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 19:15, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
- As I hinted at above, I've been aware of this editor since March last year. In someways they're a perfect editor- no drama, over 8,000 mainspace contributions, clean block log, thirty articles created, and over 80% edit-summary usage. The elephant in the room, of course, is language. The articles aren't so bad- they just need a bit of tidying... like this. Having said all that, the 0.5% of his edits that are to user-talk are like this. The real problem is the inability to communicate on what is, of course the English Wikipedia. Their absence from this board is possibly explained by the fact that they either do not understand the notice or are not prepared to demonstrate their use of language her. Frankly, the editor needs- not so much a mentor- but a translator. And I'm not quite sure how that would be done even if we actually were able to find one! It would be desperately sad, though, to lose them as an editor; I just can't quite see how we can get around these flaws. It would be nice if we could though.

Would it be possible perhaps for you to have a chat though? Explain, who you are, where they stand, how we can help but only if they help themselves, etc? You don't have to. But perhaps you could judge their attitude and general competency by the nature of their response. Would you be willling? This isn't an official proposal- as it's somewhat beyond your call of duty!

- Good afternoon, Dear Sirs! I see, you are discussing about me. Can be difference in our understanding the situation about my articles in the following:
- I do not see original recearch in my article SS Metallurg Anosov and you see the original research. The same situation was about my articles of Soviet Ships, as from beginning somebody wrote that that articles are original research and the sources from Interned seamen's talk is not a sourse in doubt. I mentioned, that in doubt Soviet official sources and not semen's talk. I show that and found out some other sorces to confirm, that the semen said correct and Wikipedia was agree, that the my Ship's articles are not otiginal recearch. In the article SS Metallurg Anosov part of information is clear my iformation, which was not printed anywhere before. If on you opinion it is original research, you can delete.
- I limited to write in this article more to confirm, as this article about the ship and I had write minimum.
- To explain, I have write other articles, but I also limited by permition, what possible to write and what better do not write. It is why I wrote allitle and not too much.
- Any way, if you deleted the part of text, which on your opinion is original research, I will not back it and will not write interesting articles about the Soviet Union. I can show you plenty articles in Russian and Ukranian Wikipedia, where plenty misunderstanding due to each country understand this as per their interests. For example and it is also can be as confirmation (I intended to write this articles also):
- Приказ о депортации украинцев в 1944 году and Таємний наказ про депортацію українців - here the photo of document, where mentined General Zhukov and Colonel Fyodorov. Zhukov, Andropov (Andropov-Fyodorov) and Andropov's father in low Fyodorov worked together during Karelian war in 1930-s also. It could be separate articles to describe why Rossia Wikipwdia does not agree with Ulranian Wikipedia and why each side can say that other side has original research. Who correct in this situation. I can confirm by my experiance that both sides are correct partly, but I have to write about my life to explain. I am Ukranian and I was not deported from Ukraine due to was used another original way, then "Order about deportation of Ukranian in 1944". Seem my experiance and my life can not be used as confirmation for you and English Wikipedia will not understand who is correct in this situation: Russian Wikipedia or Ukranian Wikipedia.
- Паткуль, Иоганн Рейнгольд and Йоганн Рейнгольд фон Паткуль - the difference is my part in Ukranian WIkipedia, which I took from source Д.І.Яворницький "Історія запорозьких козаків", том 3, Коментарі Г.Я.Сергієнка - this book wrote Dmytro Yavornytsky during Tsar Russia and this book was printed only one time during Tsar Russia and after was prohibited due to Tsat and after Soviet Union was not agree to confirm his information as his book confirm some history moments about Ukrain (in this articles directly about Peter I and Mazepa, where the writer describe why Mazepa was against the Peter I. This bool by Dmytro Yavornytsky was printed again in Ukrain in 1990-s after the Soviet Union colapse.
As you see each country Wikipedia can describe articles of other Wikipedias as "original research" and own articles as "correct information and correct sources". In my articles I confirm my infromation (my life) by other sources and it is not original research. Any way, if it is not interesting I will stop to write more and seems nobody will write it for English Wikipedia to understand situation and misunderstanding between RUssian and Ukranian, as each other Wikipedia (Rissian, for example) can cry to you that my inforormation is original research. I t was already one time, one year or one and half year ago about. Also every Soviet source needs to be checked and passed original recearch also as too much wrong information Soviet sources have. The same today, - each country writes own understanding of situation. It is means that we can sea in the most articles original research, if we want understnd it as original research. Thanks. Грищук ЮН (talk) 14:12, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
- There's probably a WP:CIR problem here, but can we find someone fluent in Russian who can explain kindly to this editor why he probably won't be able to help us here on the English Wikipedia? He's clearly working in good faith, and I'd hate for him to go away with nothing but a kick in the butt. EEng 07:08, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Hmmm. That reply probably suffices. O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 09:39, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Ymblanter:... Well; any thoughts? O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 13:23, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yes. In Russian :D brilliant! O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 15:29, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
More eyes needed: RfC: Arab vs. Palestinian?
On Talk:Kfar Ahim, I start a RfC concerning wether or not we should write [[Palestinian people Palestinian]] (My preference), or [[Palestinian people Arab]] (Number 57 preference),
Number 57 (talk · contribs), after he has commented on the RfC, then goes around changing the wording into his preferred choice. ([132], [133], [134], [135], [136], [137], [138], [139], [140], [141], [142], [143], [144], [145], [146]),
My question is, is this acceptable behaviour from an admin?
I would also greatly appreciate "outside views" on this RfC, Thanks, Huldra (talk) 20:59, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- As usual in this topic sphere, the full picture has not been presented. The above should have read "changing the wording back after Huldra had recently changed it". Number57 23:51, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- Actually, it should have read "changing the wording back after Huldra had changed it after Number 57 changed it." Mostly, it has been me who has inserted these references (Using Khalidi as a ref. for which Israeli kibbutz/moshavs is located on which depopulated Palestinian village land). I have noted that since last summer, Number 57 has changed [[Palestinian people Palestinian]] to [[Palestinian people Arab]] whenever he has updated the population of the place. I have changed some back, however, unlike Number 57, I have of course not changed any of them after the RfC started.Huldra (talk) 00:34, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- And again, not the full picture – over half of these articles (from what I can work out, Even Menachem, Bnei Re'em, Kokhav Michael, Beit Shikma, Otzem, Gat, Israel, Talmei Yaffe and Mavki'im) had never contained the word Palestinian until Huldra added it in the past couple of weeks as part of an ongoing campaign to shoehorn the word "Palestinian" into as many articles about Israel as possible. But anyway, I would welcome outside input into the RfC to combat the domination of the topic area by editors with a certain POV. Number57 08:09, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- So far your replies here are entirely irrelevant. The only reason there is a case here against you is that you made multiple edits in preemption of an active RfC in which you are a protagonist. Huldra did not do that. Why don't you explain why this behavior is reasonable? I'm honestly mystified. Zerotalk 08:47, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I was reverting to the status quo until a decision is made, which is standard practice on Wikipedia and I think quite reasonable. I would say I'm mystified as to why you think pointing out that Huldra is not being entirely straightforward in the way she has presented her complaint is "entirely irrelevant", but sadly I'm not. Personally I think non-neutral wording of the RfC is of much greater concern to the community... I'm also not sure what the point of bringing this to ANI was unless you are seeking to get me blocked? Number57 08:57, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I have repeatedly asked you to suggest what you think is a "neutral wording", but you have made no such suggestion, just complained that my wording is "non-neutral". Obviously, I am not trying to get you blocked, but I would like you to see that making 15 controversial edits after I had raised a concern about them is quite disruptive editing. This sort of editing is something I would typically expect from a newbie in the field, and certainly not from an admin. Huldra (talk) 12:38, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- PS: I confess that one of the reasons I raised the question here, was also to get more "outside" eyes at the RfC.... Huldra (talk) 12:38, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I made it very clear what was problematic in your RfC wording, so the onus is really on you to sort it out. But anyway, I actually made a suggestion about four hours before you posted this comment... Unfortunately you seem to have been more focused on personal attacks (your inferred claim that I think Arabs "can 'go back' to where other Arabs live" seems to suggest that I support ethnic cleansing and I hope you will strike it from the record as also requested by another editor). Unfortunately I see your conduct has prompted one of the uninvolved editors to leave the discussion. Number57 16:21, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I see you are quite unwilling to see any problem with making controversial mass changes in articles, after a RfC has been opened about the matter, in spite of the clear policies on RfCs. Your other statements have been answered on the Talk:Kfar Ahim. Huldra (talk) 23:09, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

(Like Number 57, I am an "involved administrator".) The relevant text from WP:RfC reads "Edits to content under RfC discussion may be particularly controversial. Avoid making edits that others may view as unhelpful. Editing after others have raised objections may be viewed as disruptive editing or edit warring. Be patient; make your improvements in accord with consensus after the RFC is resolved." Zerotalk 05:38, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

- No, that's not what WP:CSD says. Any editor may contest a speedy deletion by removing the tag, providing they didn't create the article. Please familiarize yourself with the criteria to avoid additional misunderstandings. - Eureka Lott 19:20, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- It says very clearly on the speedy tag "If this article does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, or you intend to fix it, please remove this notice". Before you begin being bold, it'd be best to familiarize yourself with the Wikipedia process.--TM 19:22, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mountain Party contains nominations for 23 different state-level green parties. I consider this a continuation of the disruptive editing by Me-123567-Me. It's extremely POINTY.--TM 19:30, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
Me-123567-Me has taken a number of unilateral actions via page merges to the list article that might have been dealt with through a broader discussion at Talk:Green Party of the United States, which I believe has more watchers. That's what I would recommend. The tiny bit of discussion at the list article's talk page does not suffice. Plus, WP:DTTR, although that's a separate issue and is less formal.

- @Me-123567-Me:, according to the CSD policy, the only person who may not remove speedy deletion tags is the article creator. And there is no prohibition on removing warnings from one's own talk page. Bradv 20:18, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
I blocked; however as soon as I hit the block button I had a change of heart and thought a final warning would suffice for the moment. If any other admin thinks a block is justified, feel free to reblock. I went with a month as he's previously had a 2-week block for similar behaviour, and escalated accordingly, and it's more than one article he's disrupting. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 22:35, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
I'd like an Admin to take a look at the AfD here - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mountain Party - and see if it should be allowed to run, or if WP:SNOW applies? It's a mass nomination of a group of articles about various state-level political parties. Some don't appear to meet the GNG but some definitely do. I have no idea why an AfD like this would be filed, so I'm struggling to assume good faith here. Exemplo347 (talk) 22:49, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Closed. Me-123567-Me, when I was closing this AFD I came across Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Arizona Green Party which you opened a year ago. Given that you were told at that time the AFD was disruptive and that you were blocked for the exact same behavior you're showing now (edit warring over CSD tags, giving inappropriate warnings), can you please explain why you should not be indefinitely blocked to prevent future disruption as you seemed to have learned nothing. --NeilNtalk to me 13:56, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- It continually frustrates me that we have terrible articles that aren't properly sourced, and when I try to remove the uncited infomration such as in Maryland Green Party, it gets re-added back. by multiple editors. I also like efficiency - so I see the AfD as a way to discuss a bulk of articles that really need help. I've tried. Each of them I've gone through before even considering merging to try to find additional content and sources. Unfortunately I have to rely on Google alone. I feel like it's an uphill battle trying to improve on these mostly terrible articels. So my desire is to light a fire under editors who are passionate about the state Green Party articles, and get some help. It's already worked one with fellow editor. See Talk:List_of_state_Green_Parties_in_the_United_States. So I apologize if what I am doing seems distruptive. However, I am not sure what else I can do to get these articles vastly improved, but even more importantly, get them cited. Me-123567-Me (talk) 18:00, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Me-123567-Me, AFD is not a place where you can list articles to be improved. You can ask at various projects' talk pages for help with that. If none is forthcoming (which may be likely) then it's up to you to do the improvements you'd like to see. We have hundreds of thousands of stub and/or "terrible" articles that are waiting to be expanded/improved. They don't get nominated for deletion because AFD does not stand for Articles for Improvement. And what you're doing does not seem to be disruptive, it is disruptive. You were told that last year and editors are telling you that now. Also, what's with the repeated misuse of template warnings and removal of CSD tags? You were clearly warned about this last time: [148] I'm not getting the sense you won't do this again. --NeilNtalk to me 18:54, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- No, I got the message. I got the message about the CSD tags too. I also realize now I need to tackle each article individually, perhaps via Talk:Green Party of the United States to build some unity and perhaps a Green Party project on its own, which could only be good not only for these articles, but Green Party articles worldwide. I tried to take on too big of a task, instead I should have approached each article individually to gain help in improvin git. Me-123567-Me (talk) 20:09, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Persistent copyright violations by User:Chitt66
| RESOLVED | |
| User:Chitt66 indefinitely blocked by The Blade of the Northern Lights. Bishonen talk 22:51, 17 January 2017 (UTC). | |
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I and other editors have given warnings on User_talk:Chitt66 about his repeated violations of the copyright rules, particularly regarding non-free images, but after those warnings he has continued to use images in situations where there is not a valid NFUR. I fear therefore that a block is necessary. --David Biddulph (talk) 21:00, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'm not an expert on copyright law, but some of the pictures uploaded might actually be public-domain, according to Copyright_law_of_the_United_States, "Therefore, works published before 1964 that were not renewed are in the public domain." In addition, from [149] it would seem to me that the 1929 photograph is in the public domain. Sir Joseph(talk) 21:10, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- If for a particular image there is evidence that it is PD, that evidence can be presented in the licencing process for the image upload, but if the image is uploaded as non-free, then the conditions for the use of non-free images must be complied with. --David Biddulph (talk) 21:19, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, there are other images that are definitely still copyrighted and still being used inappropriately. After, literally, pleading with them to stop they continue to violate the fair use policy. This is a problem and they do not seem to want, or be capable, or stopping. For this reason, I support the block until the time comes when they can explain how images can be used properly under our fair use policy. --Majora (talk) 22:02, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- User continues to put in fair use violations into articles [150]. This isn't going to stop. Requesting a block. --Majora (talk) 23:08, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I've indefinitely blocked; an unblock would be contingent on demonstrating a thorough understanding of copyright policy, especially regarding images, and a commitment not to repeat the actions which lead to the reams upon reams of warnings in prior months.

Subtle intentional errors 73.161.214.42
I noticed that 73.161.214.42 has introduced subtle errors that seem very hard to catch. Some of the edits are blatant vandalism, eg. replacing "German" with "Race traitor" However, I just noticed the apparent introduction of what seems like an intentional mispelling after 8 months. I'm concerned that this user may have introduced errors that will not be recognized for a long time, if ever. For example, I can't easily verify some significant factual changes like this. On the other hand, they appear to have made some positive contributions and some of their edits seem like well-intentioned newbie challenges. Can someone review all their contributions for errors and offer a warning message or something next time they contribute? Sondra.kinsey (talk) 15:43, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

This IP address has been devoted to adding an external link to a personal website on several pages pertaining to blues artists. Here are some recent examples: [151] [152] [153]. The IP has been warned on three different occasions but has nevered responded or show signs of stopping. They also may have a conflict of interest with the article Valeriy Pisigin, and may be connected to User:Traffic1957, who has made similar edits. Could an admin please block one or both accounts to prevent further disruption?TheGracefulSlick (talk) 10:12, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- I notified Traffic1957. I think an explanation would be nice. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 16:37, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- WP:AGF please. It's pretty clear that Traffic1957 is probably Valeriy Pisigin. But what seems evident to me is that, firstly, Pisigin is a respected blues scholar/fan who has edited here in good faith and whose potential to contribute here should be welcomed; and, at the same time, they remain fairly clueless about how they can best contribute. Clearly, linking to their own website gallery of photos is inappropriate. It's possible that their awareness of how they can contribute here might be limited by language issues. My point is that we should perhaps cut them a little slack, and continue to encourage them to contribute constructively - rather than issuing threats of blocks.

TBAN request
- Made by
- Affected party
- Topic
Grace VanderWaal and all related articles
- Reason
- Evidence
Talk:Grace VanderWaal, particularly §§ "ELs again", "Having two Youtube sites is nothing worth noting" and "Vevo link"
- Statement by ATS
User Ronz has been engaging in repeated, belligerent disruption at Grace VanderWaal and its talk page. In particular, the editor has continued to remove data (these are just the most recent examples; 758122056 claims in the edit summary a consensus in direct opposition to any actual consensus), dishonestly citing BLP, EL*, SOAP and REFSPAM (none of which applies) in order to instead enforce IDONTLIKEIT. (Invocation of BLP is particularly dishonest in light of BLPSOURCES and BLPREMOVE, the actual policies under which data is to be deleted.)
When called on his actions, Ronz invokes CHOICE and FOC (the equivalent of answering "Stop disrupting the article by deleting content!" with "You need to focus on content."), while berating anyone other than himself for failure to gain a consensus.
The user also has been properly upbraided for at least one outright lie.
Most recently, Ronz has played the victim card, complaining that he's entitled to explanations that already have been provided.
I believe it is necessary to invoke a mandatory TBAN to stop the disruption since the editor is refusing, and with trademark belligerence, to self-impose.

- They are not required to be linked directly. Her official youtube, vevo, twitter etc are already all linked from her website. WP:EL explicitly addresses this. Its certainly *not* down as I can access it and one of the youtube links takes you to the EXACT same page as the one linked from her official website. And I know they are because my PC is currently playing the same damn song in stereo. So no, no unique content. Linkspam. Only in death does duty end (talk) 19:11, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

- And Jesus Christ, the only reason the Vevo link you have put in as an external link is different to the Vevo link from her website is that you have put the external link to the 'videos' section of her channel instead of 'home' as her official website does.

- I noticed the fuss at Grace VanderWaal and have been trying to help but unfortunately Ronz has got under people's skin and we are seeing the tactical blunders mentioned above. For example, referring to Ronz as a vandal is an own-goal at ANI because WP:VAND and commonsense dictate that being misguided does not make one a vandal. Also, retorts merely cause third parties to assume Ronz must be on the right side. The fundamental issue concerns a couple of external links. It's easy to provide a sea of blue links showing how such links should be discouraged, but in this case Ronz has been quite needlessly harassing contributors over trivia. Consider the benefits that would arise from removing one external link, and balance that against all the ill-will caused as good editors have tried to develop this article. Ronz drops in every few days to post another condescending set of blue links while never engaging with the content issues that others try to raise concering why links should be retained. Ronz should be told to leave the article alone—there are plenty of puff pages needing attention (I noticed this and this yesterday). Johnuniq (talk) 00:07, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Ronz has repeatedly engaged in edit warring and editing against consensus. I support the proposed TBAN. Somambulant1 (talk) 01:09, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- commentI support Johnuniq's comments here. Ronz has been involved in four discussions on the talk page since October 29 and started 2 of them. I believe it was Einstein who offered doing the same thing and expecting different results is madness. We have multiple consensus making processes. In addition to a RFC we have WP:ELN. There's no real issue honestly in what he's done (trying to apply EL policy and/or guidelines) but how he has done it. I do not support a topic ban here. I think this can be simply solved by telling Ronz to stop this behavior. Ronz, not just in this article but in all articles, if you can't take an action that will lead to a consensus (such as an RFC) then drop the stick because you are beating a dead horse.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 01:53, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- I would have no argument with
telling Ronz to stop this behavior
as long as any consequences have teeth. His latest edits to the talk page indicate a continuing unwillingness to accept any responsibility for his own actions. —ATS 🖖 talk 02:09, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Let me try something crazy. @Ronz: It's reasonably time to stop this fight over EL. I would like to request something of you. I certainly feel that it's reasonable. It' in regards to the article at Grace VanderWaal. I would like to ask you stop all activity there in regards to external links unless that activity can be reasonably expected to end in a consensus (such as an RFC). Basically constructive actions. The request is that you no longer remove the links with out first gaining a consensus. You no longer open a discussion on the talk page about the external links (unless its an RFC). And if you do upon an RFC that you limit your discussion about the rfc to necessary comments to make your case. In short I would like to ask you to respect the current consensus or take action that would result in a broader consensus. This seems reasonable.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 02:39, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Demanding that one side of a content dispute stop trying to enforce guidelines because the editors who violate it also make useful contributions seems... incredibly weird. Though I do agree that Ronz would be better off just abandoning this article. Let the page accrue external links to its authors' content. Spend your efforts somewhere that doesn't generate so much angst over something so silly. Someguy1221 (talk) 03:34, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- It's not a demand and it is a request, well on my part. And as far as enforcing the rules we are talking about a guideline. More than a few of them have held that this guideline doesn't apply.

At Grace VanderWaal, everyone is editing constructively except User:Ronz. S/he has, at every turn, made it more difficult for everyone else to develop the entire article and dominated the discussions on the talk page with repetitive demands, accusations and disruptions of numerous kinds. There are experienced editors working on the article, and we have resolved all disagreements and reached WP:CONSENSUS on all the issues. Only Ronz disagrees with the consensus. Ronz should be banned from the page so that we can get on with developing it. This subject, Grace VanderWaal, only came to national attention recently, and Ronz has stood in the way of our ability to develop it to follow the subject's fast-moving career because of Ronz's obsession with deleting ELs. The article has only 4 ELs. Ronz wants to delete 3 of those. Those 3 links have been discussed extensively at the Talk page, and the consensus is to keep them. Here is why: VanderWaal is notable mainly for three things: (1) her YouTube videos; (2) her new EP; and (3) her appearances (and win) on AGT. The three ELs that Ronz disagrees with are of key interest to any reader of this article. The first is a link to the subject's main YouTube channel. The second is a link to the "videos" page of her GraceVanderWaalVEVO channel that features her EP and the songs on the EP. The third links to the appearance on AGT that made the subject notable and famous and which has been viewed well over 100 million times on social media (both YouTube and Facebook). -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:34, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Honestly I don't see that any of that matters. In the end you are personally arguing for a WP:CONLIMITED while he's arguing that specific policies and/or guidelines apply. The greater issue on part of @Ronz:, as I see it, is wp:stick. Without attempting to end this discussion constructively with some consensus making process they are beating a dead horse. After two months at this point this is simply disruptive especially considering how little the issue actually matters in the grand scheme of things. They should either drop it or move on to some constructive form of consensus making. In the event they fail to do either a tban should be considered. Above it seems that they have agreed to move on to some form of constructive consensus making process. As such there's no need to tban them. They seem to have asked one simple thing of you. That you add no more External links until this constructive consensus making process that they opt for is complete.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk)

@Serialjoepsycho: I had already started what could be used as the start of a dispute resolution activity. Personally, I was thinking WP:ELN, but if editors think an RfC is better, I'm for it. Do you think that it is a good start? Personally, it's not that we haven't worked on constructive consensus-making, but that editors do not respect the consensus when it doesn't go their way. I've certainly compromised, and even provided arguments for the material that I disagree about including. ATS says he doesn't care which links are in the article. I think Somambulant1 has been responsive to discussion. That leaves SSilvers. Will he respect new consensus? I hope so, but don't think his answer should sway us from trying to get this settled. (I'm unlikely to have much time to respond further today.) --Ronz (talk) 16:43, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Ronz: ELN is not very accurate. An RFC will be more expedient. It's time to put this baby to bed. Honestly I'd rather you move on but if you must a RFC would be better.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 21:15, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- No editor who continues, especially through a "resolution" process, to assert that he alone is right and everyone else is wrong, and who starts and propagates an edit war on that basis, will ever be "on the right track". This was the genesis of the disruption, and the editor refuses to address it. —ATS 🖖 talk 18:42, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: Looking through his edits to the article [154], it is clear that Ronz has been editing aggressively and uncollaboratively and, if I may say so, stubbornly, on it since late October. Even two editors who have at times criticized each other (ATS and Ssilvers) have still managed to edit constructively and collaboratively there [155]. So I would say unless the disruptive editing from Ronz has stopped, he should take a temporary break from the article (either voluntary or by community decision). While I'm at it though, I will reiterate what others have observed: ATS, your personal communication style and your reactivity lessen and in some cases completely torpedo whatever valid points you are trying to make. Softlavender (talk) 07:51, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- I appreciate the comments, Softlavender, even as I would argue with "completely torpedo". That said, you understand quite clearly the frustration facing those of us—and, giving credit where due, to the lion's share of the work, by Ssilvers—who try to create and improve articles in good faith. Was that frustration good cause to call me a spammer? —ATS 🖖 talk 08:06, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Update: Ronz is still continuing his endless campaign: [156]. So I think the topic ban (page ban) is still on the table. Softlavender (talk) 07:15, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support page ban, due to continuing WP:BATTLEGROUND behaviors and resistance to collaboration and consensus, despite the continued warnings here and on the article talk page. Softlavender (talk) 07:15, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- I tried to collaborate with you, but got no response [157]. I collaborated with Serialjoepsycho to follow his recommendation for ending the content dispute [158]via ELN. I collaborated with Ssilvers to get the facts for the ELN discussion clarified, as I'd been repeately accused of being inaccurate about these facts, and previous discussions had stalled [159][160], leading to the complaints by ATS that started this entire discussion here. --Ronz (talk) 16:19, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'm 100% sure Softlavender knows "I tried to 'collaborate' but you refuse to see things my way" when she sees it ... —ATS 🖖 talk 19:13, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- Ronz appears to have involved the broader community by starting an RFC at WP:ELN#Grace VanderWaal. Regardless of the above complaint, that seems like a suitable path forward to resolving the content issue. --Izno (talk) 19:53, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- oppose Clear attempt to get rid of an opponent by silencing him, clear refusal to consider and apply what policy and guideline prescribe but trying to override with a local consensus. This battleground behaviour is not building an encyclopedia, and rather disruptive. --Dirk Beetstra T C 00:51, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Weak oppose. Having just taken the better part of the last hour to read most of that talk page, I have no reservation in agreeing that there is far too much attitude in the vein of WP:OWN and WP:BATTLEGROUND there--and just too much by way of needlessly entrenched views in general. But that said, it's hardly a product of Ronz's involvement alone, nor do I find that his comments flirt with disruption or incivility with any greater frequency than do some of those of his "opposition" on the TP. In truth, there's an astounding degree of failure to AGF or work towards a reasonable middle-ground solutio--and this on the part of several of the principle editors of that article. There's a great deal of accusatory, rather than collaborative, language on that page, and I'm not convinced that either side (or indeed any side, as this seems to be a multi-directional melee) has truly cornered the market on obstinance.
- That said, Ronz, I do believe you have abused reference to WP:FOC repeatedly in those discussions; it is perfectly acceptable for other editors to make broad observations about the positions you have espoused without those observations constituting WP:personal attacks as we understand them on this project. Certainly comments of that nature can be personal attacks under some circumstances, but that was not the case in most of the occasions in which I saw you invoke FOC on that page. So, for example, when Ssilvers called ATS a mediocre editor, that certainly was an unacceptable generalization, but when Ssilvers also said "I think that Ronz misunderstands the purpose of the BLP rules: they are to protect living persons from libel, not to...", that was not in any way inappropriate, given that it was a discussion of particular policy issues, not a blanket evaluation of another editor's value. That said, I found that Ssilvers comments in those threads were significantly more likely to be needlessly abrasive or just combative when compared against those of either Ronz or ATS--but let me be clear that none of the three of you are coming out of this smelling like roses. On a related note, I've seen a fair bit of accusation against Ronz that he is being needlessly pedantic/tendentious by refusing to give over on the issue of the external links. And while it's hard to argue with that assessment, it's also a striking display of a lack of self-awareness by his opponets to not see that this argument cuts both ways; if including the links would represent a trivial change to the article's overall content that "isn't worth" this degree of discord, then the same is true of avoiding the links--and both sides are therefore being equally "petty" by insisting on their relative opinions.
- Of course, if there were a firmer local consensus or more dispositive policy wording here, this might be a different story, and we might say that one side or the other was simply refusing to WP:Drop the stick. But the truth of the matter is that WP:ELMINMOFFICIAL gives sufficient license to each of the positions that has been forwarded, and this is definitely an area where reasonable minds can reasonably differ. I think the explicit wording of that guideline slightly favours Ronz's argument, if it can be said to favour any--but then again, the local consensus on that page is slightly against him. As others have pointed out above, local consensus cannot trump community consensus, but I think some of those commenters are misinterpreting how those two levels of process interface: generally speaking, local consensus represents the aggregate opinion of the editors of a given article as to how policy/community consensus applies to a particular content dispute. Rarely are editors arguing to throw out community consensus with local consensus; rather they are geberally endeavouring to apply broader principles of policy/community consensus as they understand them to apply to a given article/dispute. And again, the policy in this instance is vague enough to allow for multiple interpretations in this instance; vague enough that even though I think Ronz has a slightly better grip on the spirit of the policy here, I wouldn't argue to overrule the emerging consensus that seems to run counter to Ronz's interpretation. And yet neither can Ronz be faulted for sticking to his guns until there is some kind of firm consensus and/or official close the content dispute (which hasn't happened as yet because none of the parties to the dispute thought to RfC the issue until now, despite months of back and forth...).
- So, my advice is for troutings all around for this silliness, at least as regards the three editors I have mentioned above. I think there are numerous obvious compromise solutions to this dispute, but it seems me that you've all lost sight of the of the middleground here, so RfC this matter and be done with it. But there's been no conduct that I've seen which rises to the level of requiring a sanction, and certainly not a TBAN--though if the parties here don't remember the mandates of WP:AGF and WP:Civility, that could change in a hurry. Snow let's rap 13:45, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you for your well-read, considered response. I would argue in my defense only that civility dies in the face of a user who has decided, I. Am. Going. To. Get. My. Way. At. All. Costs.
- A hypothetical, then: say the RfC ends with no clear consensus. Does that give the user license to, once again, enforce his way? Because he will. —ATS 🖖 talk 19:34, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, you happen to be in one of the few scenarios where WP:NOCONSENSUS gives some direct guidance:
"Discussions sometimes result in no consensus to take or not take an action. What happens next depends on the context: ...In disputes over external links, disputed links are removed unless and until there is a consensus to include them."
Of course, in that scenario there is no prejudice against continued efforts to generate consensus; if there were even weak consensus then it would arguably be disruptive to launch further threads/RfCs/what-have-you, at least for a time. But when discussion fails to achieve any degree of workable consensus, all sides are technically free to keep revisiting the issue as much as they like until there is some degree of consensus (NOCON only tells us that the links should stay out until consensus is achieved to include them)--but frankly, I would hope that one side or the other would give over here if an RfC fails to gain even weak workable consensus--which doesn't happen all that often with RfCs, but often enough that you may want to prepare for it here, given how divided the current editors are.
- Well, you happen to be in one of the few scenarios where WP:NOCONSENSUS gives some direct guidance:
- But better still would be to come to a compromise solution now, which I would say is arguably what is in the article's best interests in any event. WP:ELMINOFFICIAL has a worthwhile aim in keeping our content consistent with encyclopedic tone and away from the issues proscribed in WP:NOTDIR; one need not even point to promotional concerns for this to still be a good idea. Then again, there is a WP:IAR-esque argument that been forwarded here with regard to the utility of a few extra links. I usually don't use those kinds of arguments in policy discussions myself, because I feel like IAR is too broad and amenable to creating conflicts with consensus where idiosyncratic approaches "feel right"--unless everyone is really on the same page that an exception should be made. That said, the utility argument has at least a little traction here. Even so, my best guess is that most editors, responding to an RfC notice and refreshing themselves on the wording of WP:ELMINOFFICIAL will probably come down on Ronz's side (if they are pressed to make a call as they are in an RfC) because of the wording of the second paragraph of that section of the EL policy. But that's just an educated guess. You can always feel free to shoot for the hard six--but it may not come out the way you are hoping, and why even try when there are surely reasonable middle-ground solutions here which will do in a pinch?
- In any event, I would caution against lapsing into the kind of assumptions we are all prone to when disputes drag on for a bit; you think that Ronz is operating from a place of narcissism and/or stubbornness ("I. Am. Going. To. Get. My. Way. At. All. Costs."), but it may very well be that he is proceeding out of a sense of obligation ("I am going to do what is right for the article, at all reasonable cost."). In any event, I definitely don't see any conduct which as yet represents the kind of longterm disruption or abuse of process which is necessary to even contemplate a TBAN. Rather I just see a group of editors who have gone to the mat over a small content issue for far too long without thinking to RfC (or otherwise formally draw) the community in to resolve the matter, and have simultaneously (some would say consequently) drifted farther and farther from WP:AGF. Snow let's rap 20:58, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, if it seems like an uphill battle for you that is unlikely to result in satisfactory compromise, you are certainly within your sphere to make that call. But if I were pressed to make a prediction, I'd probably bet on Ronz's interpretation prevailing at RfC. Or further deadlock. Neither of which results in the links being included. It might be worth giving up some of the links to preserve others. Besides, the article might benefit from this balanced approach. Snow let's rap 01:19, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: ATS's characterization of Ronz's behavior as "I. Am. Going. To. Get. My. Way. At. All. Costs." is entirely accurate, and a behavior Ronz has demonstrated on multiple other occasions on multiple other articles, and one he has in fact been blocked for: [161]. -- Softlavender (talk) 06:21, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, I can't speak to that; I don't have any experience with Ronz beyond reviewing the talk page now in question and this thread. It may well be a pattern with this user. But that said, with regard to the threads presently in question on that talk page, I haven't seen anything that crosses the line into disruption, tendentiousness, or abuse of process. Yeah, Ronz has certainly been tenacious over a period of weeks in advocating for their position, but so have other editors on that page. The problem was not so much that no one would back down, though that certainly was the case--it's that no one until recently thought to seek broader community input in order to bring in new perspectives and ease the deadlock. At least, that's how it looks to me. Snowlet's rap 07:03, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

And since most of your last 3,000 edits have consisted of automated removal of social-networking sites from ELs, I think you may be somewhat biased here and failing to review the evidence of extended and highly disruptive battleground behavior in the face of consensus. Softlavender (talk) 10:38, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- There is a long standing consensus, codified in WP:NOT, WP:EL, and WP:ELPEREN (as well that it is codified in the usage instructions on several templates like {{twitter}}, {{facebook}}, {{google+}}, {{blogger}}), {{LinkedIn_URL}}, the to-be-deleted {{official blog}} (see deleted doc) that we minimize the number of external links and only link to multiple official sites in very exceptional cases. That same conclusion was also drawn by other editors on my talkpage after I have removed many official social networking sites where official sites were already listed, and it was drawn in the AN/I thread that was started because of complaints of removal. Many of these social networking sites, especially in addition to the official site, do not merit inclusion. You name 3000 removals, most of those still stand (of this set of 49 removals only one slipped back in (none reverted)). And those removals have been rather conservative (I have skipped 80% of the pages, many of these would not have been skipped if I would have been less careful (though slower) .. ). I have seen very few reasoned, appropriate, reversions on my edits, and I have gotten a number of thanks for the removals as well. I think that shows what your 'face of consensus' says - additional social networking sites, barring very few exceptions, are discouraged. This is just one of those examples which fails our inclusion standards as determined by long standing consensus. --Dirk Beetstra T C 12:40, 15 January 2017 (UTC)(several edits to this comment by myself --Dirk Beetstra T C 13:24, 15 January 2017 (UTC))
- And seen that there are several people saying that these links do not belong, does, IMHO, show that we do not have consensus about the inclusion of these links .. to me that show how wrong Ronz appears to be. --Dirk BeetstraT C 13:05, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

- I disagree with your analysis. Softlavender (talk) 08:03, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Softlavender: My apologies, I misunderstood the intent of that remark.
- First, I would have, blindly, removed these social network sites on these pages as well (and am still considering, there is obvious no consensus for inclusion). My script would have cleared these as well. User Ronz is, I think, similarly to me quite harsh in deletion of such superfluous links if they do not have significant merit. My 3000-ish removals mainly stand, though some vocal editors found the need to shout loud that these removals were inappropriate (and I am, albeit slower, still doing the same). I feel that here the same things happen. I was one of the editors that a couple of months ago adviced against inclusion on this page, still they return. Still there is no consensus for inclusion. Still some editors think that they can do whatever they want in the face of consensus (or lack thereof). I still think that Ronz has policy, guideline, common sense and common use behind him in this removal, and although it may be wise for him to back of, I am not convinced that he is the one that turned this into a battleground.
- This specific case has now turned into a situation where policy, guideline etc. suggest the removal of these links on this page, several editors have suggested that these links do not belong here, but I am sure that you know what will happen if another editor removes these links... and that has nothing to do with Ronz. --Dirk Beetstra T C 18:22, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

- The article was created on 14 September 2016. Since then, Ronz has edited the talk page 80 times, my talk 13 times, and has made lots of other edits on other pages—all part of a mission to remove a couple of external links from Grace VanderWaal. In addition, Ronz has a 900-word manifesto at a user subpage. The dedication would be admirable if it were directed at a worthwhile cause. Unfortunately the approach involves one-way communication—Ronz announces the rules and offers "WP:FOC" in response to points raised. Even if removing a couple of external links was "correct", the approach is damaging to the project and should be strongly resisted. Johnuniq (talk) 09:55, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose. On the face of it, many of the edits complained of are exactly correct (e.g. removing cases where the text says "X did Y on YouTube, source, X doing Y on YouTube"). This kind of self-sourced promotional crap is a plague on Wikipedia. Guy (Help!) 10:37, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
Funny business with some articles
While reviewing something else I noticed an interesting edit pattern. It seems like there exist at least two articles where many different accounts and IPs exclusively edit. It appears to be that these are throwaway accounts.
This alone is of course not the problem here but I will document several of these accounts and their odd edit pattern below. By no means is this exhaustive evidence.

I suspect these are single purpose throwaway accounts either by a PR firm or employees of a certain company editing with severe COI. It feels like a poorly coordinated marketing attempt at a glance to me. What I find most strange is how most of these accounts exclusively edit one and only one article with one of them editing for years but making only few edits and only to one article. There needs to be further scrutiny IMHO before an action is taken.

- Comment: The only article that was mentioned here has been deleted a week ago. Unless there are other articles involved, I'm not sure what is being requested here. It might be better to post this at WP:COIN, and also provide and complete the editor interaction tool [167] (with all of the accounts) for them so they can see any crossover. Since most of the accounts have stopped editing eons ago, I don't think there's much to be done except possibly salt the deleted article if need be. Softlavender (talk) 08:43, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Softlavender: My worry here is to identify if there are other accounts editing in this manner. Linked ones may be DOA but this group was certainly active recently. We need to also identify the existing damage. I am unsure how editorinteract will be veru useful because it seems like each user account is for the most part used as a throw away account per client.

Copyright violations
User:Mahussain06 has been copying and pasting copyrighted material again after previously being blocked for doing the exact same thing before. An example is this edit of copying the exact sentence "DeGale scored a flash knockdown in round 1 when he knocked Jack down with a left hand to the head." from here. 80.235.147.186 (talk) 00:27, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, apologies for the inconvenience, this was since rectified but the changes didn't seem to have been saved, causing you to believe copyright violation. I had no intention of blatant copyrighting here. I still stand firm with the appeal when I was first blocked and have made significant changes with the way I edit. This was a human error, I thank you for pointing this out and hope this is down as a misunderstanding. Thank you.Mahussain06 (talk) 08:16, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
There's an edit war going on at the bio of musician Teairra Marí, as well various of her releases like Make Her Feel Good and Teairra Marí discography. The main participants are User:TheBigProject and User:JJMC89. Both participants have breached 3RR limits. I see no relevant article talk page discussion. JJMC89 claims exemption from 3RR for reverting the sock of a banned user, but the relevant SPI hasn't been resolved yet. The article is a BLP horroshow in either version, and the "Legal issues" section, and perhaps others, incorporates cut-and-pasted/COPYVIO text. But nobody's going to get involved in cleanup so long as the article remains a free fire zone. This isn't going to stop on its own; admin action is necessary. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

- I added a new aspect: From a constitutional point of view, however, Nikita S. Khrushchev broke the Constitution of the Russian Federation (RSFSR), which committed the territorial integrity of the fatherland. The process has never been properly investigated.
"Documents from the archives opened in 1992 also showed that the decision was also illegal in other respects. Neither had the Supreme Soviet in Moscow voted on the subject, nor the one in Kiev, but, what was inadmissible, only their presidencies. Almost half of the members of these committees were missing, which must be understood as a demonstrative vote against this arbitrary decision and meant, that they were not formally legitimized. Protest also came from the First Secretary of the Communist Party in Crimea, Pavel Titov, who had been cited to Moscow to receive the notification of the change of ownership. He was then removed and replaced by Ukrainian Dmytro Polianski." The external occasion for this generous "gift" of Moscow to Kiev was the 300th anniversary of the Treaty of Peresyaslav. [1]

Range block request for IP disruption

I've been dealing with an IP address for quite some time now. They will usually go to a former IP of there's talk page and change my signature to something obscene. This has been going on for some time now and I was wondering if a range block could be done to stop this IP from doing this, if one is warranted in the first place. Not notifying this user since they're an IP hopper. IP's include the following:
- 69.149.70.90 (contributions)
- 69.149.67.156 (contributions)
- 69.149.68.5 (contributions)

And a whole lot more. Contributions (and the edits they have made) are listed above as well. Thank you. JudgeRM (talk to me) 03:51, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- That is a fairly wide range of IPs to block and there are plenty of constructive edits from the range as well. Unfortunately, the collateral damage is probably too much to permit a range block that would take care of the problem.

User:XavierGreen is repeatedly trying to insert unsourced or improperly cited material in the middle of a GA review [168] [169] [170]. While I have reasons to believe this timing is no mere coincidence, I had exhausted the communication channels with him. Maybe someone can be more persuasive than me as how being disruptive for the sake of it isn't nice. Bertdrunk (talk) 02:21, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I had previously voiced my opinion in the GA review, user:Bertdrunk has never addressed my concerns with the article and its bias towards what is now tantamount to an Amero-centric point of view in regards to the scope of the article. Prior to any edits that user:Bertdrunk had made to the page, an editor had made some NPOV edits removing virtually all reference to the Eurpean, Caribbean, and Indian Ocean naval campaigns of the war. See for example here [[171]], as an example of some of the details of the various campaigns of the war that have since been removed. I merely restored some of this information to the article. I have not broken 3RR. I have for some time been attempting to fix various POV edits made to Revolutionary War naval battle articles by a banned sockpuppet user named User:SuffrenXXI, who interestingly enough was blocked a few months before User:Bertdrunk created his account. There also were and have been several IP address's reverting several of my own edits.XavierGreen (talk) 03:34, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yes man, it's all a big conspiracy to preclude you from stat your opinions as facts. At least you upgraded communication from cryptic edit summaries.

- I don't think any administrative action is needed here. To @XavierGreen:, I would just say to be mindful of the fact that this article is in the middle of a GA review, so if you can add content that is well sourced and improves the article, I think that is good. To @Bertdrunk:, I empathize with the feeling of a promoted content nomination ostensibly being derailed (it's happened to me once or twice), but I think ultimately you should work to collaborate if the content being added is something that should be in the article, and discuss on the talk page if you think it's not.

- To my opinion Bertdrunk is acting rather harsh but on the other hand the edits of XavierGreen were unsourced and poorly written. So, get a set of Stratego and battle it out there. In the mean time it might be a good idea to tweak the scope of Naval battles of the American Revolutionary War so that it only includes present day US-waters and create a second article of naval affairs outside these waters. The Banner talk 15:12, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- The war was one of a global scale, with naval units frequently moving between theaters as they do in most wars. An article titled Naval battles of the American Revolutionary War would be expected to cover all areas of that topic and especially the major naval battles of the war, most of which were in Europe and the Carribean.XavierGreen (talk) 16:46, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Persistent vandalism of comics articles by 107.77.*.*
This anon editor has been persistently vandalizing articles for many weeks, primarily making fraudulent claims about co-creating Spawn (comics),[174] and implicitly disparaging actual creator Todd McFarlane and certain other comics creators by referring readers to a web forum he frequents for details.[175] (I'm an occasional participant in that forum, and I've attempted to engage him there about this, with incoherent responses.) He evades page protections by targeting additional articles, and evades blocks by changing IP addresses, so far including 107.77.194.22, 107.77.203.11, 107.77.203.4, 107.77.204.229 (multiple warnings given on this one), 107.77.204.153, 107.77.204.185, 107.77.203.81, 107.77.203.210, 107.77.203.4 –Jason A.

Gamingforfun365
So this all started when Gamingforfun365 nominated Crispy Gamer for FAC. I nominated the article for GAN and it passed. It was passed by Gamingforfun365 himself and I was very much bothered by this since I didn't intend to nominate it for FAC as I believed it didn't meet the criteria for a Featured Article. It eventually was closed due to Gaming not being a major contributor of the article. But at one point he says "I am actually having fun from how lousy this discussion is going". I brought it up to him on his talk page, where he eventually deleted it.
It gets really complicated as in one thread on the Video games project, which was originally titled "Crispy Gamer now FAC", where he announced that he didn't do any fact-checking in his GAN reviews. Also making remarks on my talk page, also bringing up the fact-checking issue and the repeated commenting he makes. I ask Gamingforfun365 three times to stop posting on my talk page and he ignores it twice.
Then there is this thread, originally titled "Gamingforfun365 quits as a GAN reviewer". I overall find his comments to be non-productive and disruptive. I honestly don't know what to do since this whole drama is complicated to explain the best one can. I just think there needs to be an uninvolved administrator to help out with the issues. GamerPro64 05:41, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Normally we expect some effort to resolve the situation before reporting here. Anyway Wikipedia:Don't feed the divas may be applicable. If Gamingforfun365 passed a bunch of GAs without actually doing the checks required, then they can all be delisted. It sounds like someone is not taking things very seriously. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:34, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, the original poster does have a right to bring this issue up to the ANI. In fact, I am thinking about either posting to that closed thread and saying that I apologize for being closed-minded and that I in fact am confirmed as a minor editor or deleting that thread and starting a new one that states that I apologize for not listening and that I in fact am only a minor. Is that all right?

- Before I go to bed, I have some things to say:
- As for the "how lousy" comment, although I do admit that it does hint that I was being disruptive on purpose, what I was trying to say is that it was distracting me from actually improving the encyclopedia. I am sorry for my word choice. If I really had enjoyed being disruptive, I would not have posted in the first place. As for trying to badge an article with an FA star, I guess that, as I have intense focus on a limited number of subjects (something that I have always been born with as a result of autism), I care far more about trying to make a few articles become top-quality than about making many articles become decently written, and Crispy Gamer was (and still is by the time of this post) one of them. As for listening to others, I guess that I could stand receiving constructive criticism as long as they are not emphasized. As for "owning" the threads that I have made, I would definitely obey if I were told by an administrator this: "Keep or archive threads that you have made on talk pages other than your user talk page, or I will block you for one week."; that last part right there would definitely make me stop. Lastly, I would like to apologize for the possible disruption, for I seem to have focused more upon making a few articles become badged with a star than upon making so many articles decently written, but that is my preference of editing: to make top-quality content and not bringing low-quality articles to just mid-quality. Once again, I apologize.

GamerPro64, I will take 100% of the blame, as it is not your fault and I am the villain, and if it really is better for me to take a break from the English Wikipedia, I would accept receiving a block.

I don't believe either of you have handled this well.

Hello, sorry for bugging you guys, but it's look the guy behind this IP address (who been blocked a few days ago) is making the same disruptive edits as before, but using another IP address, he made these edits here in the Views article just recently. You can see the edits look very similar as the other IP, such as unnecessary linking phases and bad grammar. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 02:21, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Hi there, TheAmazingPeanuts. In looking strictly at the diff you showed (which shows all 16 revisions at once), some of the changes he or she made do seem to improve the syntax of the article. While I can't speak for all of them, I think these can probably be addressed through the normal editing process. Insofar as it may be the same IP as the one recently blocked, I'd advise assuming good faith, and if disruption continues, report either back here or (if it is vandalism) to WP:AIV. Let me know if I'm missing something; nothing here seemed malicious. Thanks, Go Phightins! 15:07, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Go Phightins!: Yes, some of the edits may help improve the article, but however these IPs unnecessary linking phrases like this and unnecessary changing up bits of text, like in this article here. These kind of edits have been reverted by several other editors, such as Koala15, Kellymoat and Nickag989, Nickag989 has left a message on one of the IPs talk page about WP:MoS, but whoever it is ignored the message and keep continue making the same disruptive edits to Wikipedia, I asked other editors who work on articles based on albums about these edits, editors like Ss112 and Dan56 agreed that these edits are unnecessary and doesn't help improve the article at all, it only make it hard to read for some, and don't follow Wikipedia's Manual of Style. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 14:25, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- OK, well if the disruptive editing from this new IP continues, I suggest again trying to engage with respect to the MOS, and if that proves fruitless, you can report here or potentially at AIV. Go Phightins! 00:37, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Go Phightins!: Well I think it would be pointless to report the matter at AIV because it for vandalism, mostly the edits are aren't that bad, but however most of the edits are unnecessary and it does not make an improvement to the article. I keep an eye for more disruptive editing from this IP, and I will report the issue again if this keep happening. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 23:13, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

A (IMHO) blatant case of vandalism-only account thay likes to play with digits into infoboxes. User has 5 edits. First two edits on Dec 20, 2016 (1st and 2nd) should like normal (a self-revert), but the third (3 minutes after) is a clear vandalism (rollbacked). 20 days after, on January 11, he comes back on the page Charlotte Hornets adding this and this (both edits rollbacked). Instead to wait for eventual further vandalisms, is IMHO better to close the case as soon as possible. Regards. --Dэя-Бøяg 02:49, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- The place to report vandalism would be WP:AIV, but in this case there have been no further edits since the user was given a first warning for vandalism, so your later warning was inappropriate and a request for a block would be unsuccessful. Please read WP:Vandalism. --David Biddulph (talk) 04:02, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Harassment#Wikihounding by User:Sportsfan 1234
Last night I removed a {{prod}} tag from 2014 Street Child World Cup. This morning, I wake up to find three AfDs of stubs I wrote, by User:Sportsfan 1234 in retaliation for my having removed the {{prod}} tag. As my own talkpage is an answering machine, I cleared those messages. Within minutes User:Sportsfan 1234 popped up again accusing me of disruptive editing. I cleared it off with language that, in full disclosure, I am well-aware may WP:BOOMERANG me and which violates WP:CIVIL but does not violate WP:NPA. Within minutes User:Sportsfan 1234 popped up again, again knowing that he is not welcome on my talkpage.
- Diffs
- [179] 12:12, January 14, 2017 replacing the prod tag I removed. Policy would dictate AfDing rather than retagging.
- mine [180]21:40, January 14, 2017 my re-removal of the tag per template "If this template is removed, do not replace it."
- [181] 13:27, January 14, 2017 his very next edit was the first of 3 retaliatory AFDs
- [182] 13:30, January 14, 2017 3 minutes later, the second of 3 retaliatory AFDs
- [183] 13:32, January 14, 2017 2 minutes later, the third of 3 retaliatory AFDs
- [184] 21:44, January 14, 2017 templating me for "Disruptive editing" when I had clearly stated my policy-based reason for removing the prod tag the second time, in my edit summary
- mine [185] 21:46, January 14, 2017 very clearly delineating that his comments are unwanted on my talkpage, with language that I am well-aware may WP:BOOMERANG me and which violates WP:CIVIL but does not violate WP:NPA
- [186] 21:49, January 14, 2017 templating me for "Using inaccurate or inappropriate edit summaries.", by this point clearly Wikihounding me, any rational editor would have left it alone by now, I certainly would have. My summary was neither inaccurate, nor by that time inappropriate.
- mine [187] my explaining that my previous summary does not violate WP:NPA
I seek 2 things here-I seek a contact ban for User:Sportsfan 1234 from contacting me, and for the retaliatory AFDs to be voided. Whether the articles should be AfDd should be left to an uninvolved party.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 02:32, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- First of all you shouldn't be removing prod tags without using an edit summary or fixing the issue at hand. Second of all, you can see my recent edit history has been to propose articles (a lot of them actually) for deletion. It is inappropriate to tell someone to f off in an edit summary. If anything you should be reprimanded for civility issues. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 03:10, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Also of note, this user can be accused of hounding as well, after I had voted to delete an article he started [[188] is when the chain above began. For a user who has limited to almost non-existent sport editing the removal of the speedy deletion template without a justified reason to me seems like this user went through my edits to target my edits. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 03:28, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- According to WP:PROD, "Any editor (including the article's creator) may object to the deletion by simply removing the tag; this action permanently cancels the proposed deletion via PROD." No edit summary or other edit is required. Jacknstock (talk) 04:51, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Sportsfan 1234: To be clear, are you saying it is a coincidence that you nominated these three articles for deletion straight after the "Street World Cup" PROD tag was removed? -- Euryalus (talk) 09:08, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Sportsfan 1234: Please read WP:PROD and highlight where it says that a PROD nomination may not be removed without leaving an edit summary or fixing any underlying issues. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:00, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'd just point out that the two lines of prose (the rest is sports results) in the 2014 Street Child World Cup article are in fact a copyright violation to boot. Whilst no-one is required to explain the removal of a PROD, from an experienced editor I would at least expect at least an edit-summary, especially for an article as poor as that one. Black Kite (talk) 14:05, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @User:Euryalus I'd say yes, because one article led to another (I usually open 20+ articles at the same time that are similar in nature to gauge their notability). @User:Boing! said Zebedee, there might not be a specific line saying that, but you would expect an experienced editor to make at least an edit summary, especially considering User:Black Kite's comments. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 15:09, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, an edit summary is good, but that is very different from your false assertion that "you shouldn't be removing prod tags without using an edit summary or fixing the issue at hand". And if you did not understand why the PROD was removed, all you had to do was ask. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 15:56, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 15:09, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- (edit conflict)@Black Kite: My very next edit [189] was on the article's talkpage, it was clear to anyone who looked that I was not (and historically am not) a drive-by tagger. Now, the copyright violation is something else, but that is not why we are here, wasn't stated in the prod tag, and is not now a tag on the article. Happy to fix that up now.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 15:13, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Black Kite: Fixed that copyvio, please have a look.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 15:19, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Sportsfan 1234 have been in at wp:AN for a wp:PROD related reason less than a moth ago (archived: wp:AN/Mass_PRODing). Also, they have made a lot of deletion nominations since late December (see: contributions - page creations on WP namespace). Most of these are mass nominations themselves, mostly of the kind of "<athletes> in <team> at <competition> in <year>". If the articles created by Kintetsubuffalo's were of that kind, I would bet it was a coincidence, yet this articles are all related to something different, girl/boyscouts, so... I don't know. A couple of things I do know. or believe to know: First, if someone removes a PROD tag, do not revert, instead either give up or go to AfD - a summary is not mandatory (but should have been provided, as for any edit, more so in this cases); second, foul language does not help. Ever. I know. I've been on both sides of it. But if it is only once in a loooooong while, we better let it go, almost everyone gets heated up once in a while. That is, if both users cool of and disengage, I see no reason to take any action. As a side note, and though I tend to agree that most of the sports articles mass nominated for deletion are probably better of deleted than not, I whish Sportsfan 1234 would make less of them - or proceed to updating the natability criteria based on these - as this is closing in on disruptive.

- Unfortunately, it's not as cut-and-dried as "if both users cool off and disengage", and there is indeed reason to take action. None of my edits created retaliatory and time-wasting AfDs. Request admin void three related AfDsWikipedia:Articles for deletion/South Sudan Girl Guides Association/Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Association of Top Achiever Scouts/Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stowarzyszenie Harcerstwa Katolickiego Zawisza as WP:WIKIHOUNDING by User:Sportsfan 1234. "Cooling off" does not address that.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 06:10, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- When one editor finds that some other editor has created one article of dubious notability and dubious copyright status, it is completely normal for the first editor to look through the contributions of the second looking for more of the same. In no way is this an inappropriate instance of hounding, and it is completely legitimate for Sportsfan to have AfD'd these articles. Kintetsubuffalo, please stop your dubious wikilawyering in an attempt to save your dubious contributions. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:58, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- Your first claim is factual-when finding a questionable article it is not uncommon to check other works by the same author. But given that several editors above do not believe it's a coincidence, nor do I, that he would have to search through my 170,000 edits and pick one from 15 October 2016, 25 October 2016, and 2 November 2016, about a religious Scout org, a national Scout org, and a Scout recognition org, which in no way follows his editing pattern, right on the heels of me making an edit he didn't like, I'm gonna go ahead and say no to your snarky "please". Two admins, by the way, jumped in and defended those so-called "dubious contributions" in the AfDs before I even saw them[190], [191], so I think we can dispense with your snide comment, which itself is unbecoming an admin.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 03:50, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- They're much less far down the list if one looks only at page creations in article space that are not redirects. —David Eppstein (talk) 03:56, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- And the "coincidental" timing? Also, regarding your mischaracterization "in an attempt to save your dubious contributions", I clearly stated above, from the beginning "Whether the articles should be AfDd should be left to an uninvolved party." Do you have a dog in this fight?--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 04:03, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Rangeblock request for 46.233.112.*
I am requesting an admin consider a rangeblock for 46.233.112.* (I think that's the same as 46.233.122.0/24). There's bit repeated disruption by this range on cartoon and television related articles since December. (See edits in this range since 01 December 2016 here). This behavior is similar to a previous IP hopper who I'd been tracking as long term abuse (see User:EvergreenFir/socks#British). IPs in this range have also been editing on User:FestonAero/sandbox, though it's unclear to me if the user is the same as the IPs. Below is a table of the recent IPs within the range.
EvergreenFir (talk) 21:55, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- The sandbox edits are probably just the registered user editing logged out accidentally. It happens. I see other non-vandal edits on this range, too – mostly copy edits. Maybe page protection would be a viable alternative? NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:59, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Which ever folks are more comfortable with. Just noticed a pattern of abuse over a month from a narrow range so thought I'd ask. Page protection works too. I'll keep an eye on the range of that's the case to make sure they don't expand to other pages. EvergreenFir(talk) 06:40, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, it's certainly tempting to do a range block, but there are enough constructive edits that they give me pause. Maybe someone else will chime in and say that I'm being too cautious. I'm obviously not an expert on this stuff; I've only been an admin for 10 days. But, anyway, thanks for spotting and combating this vandalism; it's a mostly thankless job.

User appears to be going on a crusade against another editor
| Blocked for 48h. The reverts on the other article (and also this one) were clearly "revenge" for RichardHarris22 correctly reverting their edits on the Messi article; not acceptable. Black Kite (talk) 23:36, 19 January 2017 (UTC) |

I wanted to ask the community to take a look at Rahul Dhanwani (talk · contribs), particularly after this edit where he stated "RichardHarris22 thinks that he is superior than every other Wikipedia user. Good job in removing his edit. Keep Going." This appears to be spill-over from a content dispute at Lionel Messi (edit talk history protect delete links watch logs views). --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 21:30, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

- Apparently I've been contacted to comment. Take a look at Rahul's edits on the Messi article. Grammar issues, excessive detail (listing every single goal), not naming the team correctly (Ath??), it's a mess. I kept the crux of their edit. I messaged Rahul to tell them their edit was fine but it needed trimming and the grammar needed tidying up. Now Rahul has evidently ignored this. The Messi article is rated GA, it won't stay that way with edits like this. It's disappointing no one else has intervened. RichardHarris22 (talk) 22:36, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Scorpion293 (talk · contribs)
I had been watching this user recently because of some curiously peculiar contributions, and today, I saw they not only started an advertising article, Draft:Over The Top (digital agency) with classic signs of PR since the information and sources are all published and republished PR, and Over The Top (digital marketing) which was immediately started a few hours later by an SPA account with no other contributions or history of articles and contribs, and lo and behold Scorpion293 reviews it and defends the article at both the talk page and his own user talk. Other new examples today are then Draft:Jose Florez, Mental Daily (see large presence there) and then Jamie P. Velez. As it is, the user of Jamie P. Velez was [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/373mgmt banned for advertising. Another today is this which shows the mirrored signs of clear advertising, and starting them in Draftspace yet despite being as they claim: "An experienced user". Next, is the classic example of both FoCuSandLeArN and Kavdiamanju (see ANI above), is their answers to my questions which kept my main questions unanswered. Next is one of the apparent "experienced reviews" was this which also shows the instant appearance of select advertising and yet this user only says "I'm unaware of the [companies" yet this is all beyond coincidental, contributing to the fact he knew which article was there each time. All of this shows both clear COI and then paid contributions, violations of our policies. As with the former 2 users, they entered reviewing in articles and defending advertisements as in Scorpion293's case. Note: Please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Scorpion293 which has a summary of their involvements also. SwisterTwister talk 00:15, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi, I'm the subject on this discussion. I responded to the user who has placed the incident. Here is what I stated: "I created the draft article, however, I submitted it under "Over The Top (digital agency)" for reviewing. Then I saw soon later that another user created the same page but under "Over The Top (digital marketing), so I approved that one. I remember the user now, his name appeared in the New pages feed. I apologize for the inconvenience."
I'm not being paid, as stated above. I've been editing on Wiki for over a decade and try my hardest to remove spam and even earned an admin barnstar for that. I'm going to continue reviewing new pages, I appreciate you bringing this to the attention of admins, I would have done the same. Scorpion293 (talk) 00:25, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- What's still unanswered is the fact nearly all of the articles I've seen you involved with, are all from SPA spam accounts, something that is not so often seen here, and especially not when a second has barely passed in between. This is also questionable when "I'm not aware of the company" is next to "I started an article for the company with their information". SwisterTwister talk 00:32, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

Wikihounding
@Alfie Gandon: is in violation of WP:Wikihounding. It is worth noting that's she was banned about a week ago for 48 hours for edit warring. I have also warned her over wikihounding twice on her talk page. [195] [196]
Here are some examples. [197] [198] [199] [200] [201] Apollo The Logician (talk) 16:24, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
Both editors could be sanctioned under the WP:TROUBLES arbcom decision and looking at their to/fro revert wars its difficult to say who is worse. I suggest a block for both.Disclosure, I have reverted to the long standing consensus at Robin Newton as changes of nationality are always contentious in TROUBLES articles, this should be discussed in the talk page. I have also been involved at British Empire, where Mr Gandon breeched 3RR on 31 Dec 2016, I warned but did not report [202]. I also opened an SPI case which cleared Mr Gandon. WCMemail 16:29, 15 January 2017 (UTC)- Withdrawing my remark, seems that Apollo The Logician, a new user, was unaware of the DS. WCMemail 00:12, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Comment A lot going on above here, but I think there is clear evidence of Alfie hounding Apollo:
- Trouble starts with This merge & redirect of Irish slaves myth (a page Alfie created) to Irish indentured servants. Alfie reverted the merge, Apollo reverted it back, and then a whole lot of edit-warring followed. (See this AN3R report).
- While the two were fighting over the redirect, Aflie started following Apollo to other articles, see: [211][212][213][214][215][216][217][218][219].
- That's nine separate pages that Aflie followed Apollo to (which they'd never edited before), and in each case their first edit to the page was to undo one of Apollo's.
- Aflie's reverts were mostly on the 10th and 15th (with the latter "session" being after a block for edit-warring).
I think at minimum a strong warning not to follow other editors and not to edit war is in order here - probably to both parties but in particular to Alfie, who seems to have a pretty serious WP:OWN issue with Irish slaves myth. Also I note some talk of DS upthread, but it does not appear that either Alfie or Apollo has been formally notified of the WP:TROUBLES DS. Honestly I'm not sure they'd be all that useful in this case, as these two editors' conflict appears to originate in pre-20th Century Irish history stuff. Fyddlestix (talk) 04:00, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- A lot going on indeed. Fyddlestix has neglected to describe their own involvement at Irish slaves myth, where Apollo has served as a useful hewer of wood and drawer of water for them. Fyddlestix often neglects things like this when an editor is breaking the rules but serving their purpose e.g. when reporting an edit war that Apollo was involved in, Fyddlestix refused to mention this, and in this discussion involving Apollo and wikihounding, failing to mention Apollo's wikihounding of me. When Apollo came to my notice, I saw a pattern of provocative editing on Northern Ireland-related articles. This didn't surprise me, given their aggressive tactic of non-discussion and reverting at Irish slaves myth, so I reverted the more egregious. The amount of withheld information here is depressing; a little more honesty would ensure a lot more good faith. Alfie Gandon (talk) 12:10, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
Unsubstantiated accusations.
Hi, YSSYguy has made baseless allegations in his edit summaries on Iran Air and referred to my ip as a sock of some chap. I would like to know if he has any evidence or proof of that at all and in case he doesn't I'd appreciate some type of action against him. Cheers. 176.112.17.175 (talk) 10:56, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

This anonymous user have added bogus information in many articles. Moreover, after other users try to reverted it back, he again edit it and leave a statement in the summary which I deemed very impolite and against Wikipedia guidelines. I therefore treated his statement as a personal attack. Furthermore, this is not my first time reporting this. I have reported numerous anonymous accounts for the last few months for the same actions and they never cease to stop. I need the admin to intervene in this issue so that these anonymous user would stop bothering other users again. Cheers. CWJakarta (talk) 09:42, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
PS: Here is the example of his personal attack:[220][221][222][223][224]

BrownHairedGirl and categories
Since there is a near 0% chance this will be accepted at ArbCom, I'm reopening this thread after Jbhunley's good faith close. This can probably be resolved here before the ArbCom request is even archived. Jbhunley's closing statement is copied below for posterity. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:43, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Jbhunley's original closing statement: This is now the subject of a request for arbitration [226]. Splitting the discussion serves only to confuse matters. JbhTalk 02:14, 9 January 2017 (UTC) (non-admin closure)
I recently nominated a category tree for renaming in the first section of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2016 December 8, and after it was closed in favor of renaming, I followed the closing administrator's instructions to have the categories renamed; I initially listed them at WP:CFDS because I wasn't 100% sure how to have them bot-renamed (there's nothing here precisely comparable to Commons:User:CommonsDelinker/commands) and knew that admins active there were familiar with doing this, although I specifically stated that this was a technical matter of enforcing the CFD and not subject to the normal provision permitting people to object. However, once I discovered how to do it, I listed them on the bot-move page, and the bot moved these categories. Despite this clear situation, BrownHairedGirl has rejected the whole situation, claiming that an objection she made to the listing at CFDS prohibits this situation from going forward, and she has now ordered the bot to begin recreating them: she is creating over one hundred categories that were deleted in accordance with a CFD. On top of all of this, we have a profoundly disingenuous situation: she accused me of violating WP:INVOLVED by listing them on the bot-move page (it's full-protected) despite the fact that I was merely following the closing admin's instructions. At the same time, she has first injected herself into the discussion and then taken precisely the type of action that she considers to have been a violation on my part. When you use admin tools to follow someone else's instructions carefully, you're not INVOLVED, but when you do it on your own initiative, you definitely are.
After warnings, we block people who create more than a few pages in defiance of an XFD; it's time to enforce the CFD decision with a block long enough to ensure that the pages be moved back to the CFD-chosen place. There's no place for someone who edit-wars to create more than a hundred pages after their deletion at XFD. Nyttend (talk) 01:45, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Actually, I was writing up something else and hadn't yet gotten to it. Given my warning that going ahead with this would result in a request for sanctions, and her statement that she was "taking the bait" (see the "rejected the whole situation" link), I was planning to do all the notifications as soon as I was done with my writeups. Nyttend (talk) 01:56, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oh dear. I did hope that Nyttend would take a deep breath and recognise that they just might have acted unwisely, but it seems not.
- This is not complicated:
- A/ I dispute the right of a CFD closer to dictate the outcome of categories which were neither listed nor tagged in the CFD discussion, because editors will not have been warned of a possible change to such categories.
- B/ Regardless of the merits of the closure, the closer's instruction[228] was to
nominate the relevant sub-cats for speedy renaming
. Note that word "nominate", because that does not grant Nyttend or anyone else the right to ignore all the long-standing procedures for CFD nominations. - Sadly, Nyttend did ignore nearly all of them. AS I pointed out on Nyttend's talk page:
- They listed the categories at CFD/S, but did not validly nominate them for CFD/S, because they didn't tag them
- Having listed (but not tagged) them, they simply ignored an objection at CFD/S, having somehow decided that they had a right to unilaterally overrule any objections -- despite there being no such exemption at CFD
- Having ignored the objection, they then proceeded to implement the moves only 46 minutes after listing them, despite the clear instructions at WP:CFD/S that nominations must remain listed for 48 hours
- And they did all of this in respect of a CFD nomination which they themselves had made, so you were certainly WP:INVOLVED
- Regardless of what anyone thinks of the closer's decision, the closer did not instruct Nyttend to bypass CFD/S as they did.
- I am also disappointed by the aggressively hostile and threatening response of Nyttend to my challenge to their actions. That does not not fit well with the civility required in WP:ADMINACCT. And the WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT nature of Nyttend's post here is equally unimpressive. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 02:07, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Just on principle, I'd suggest that anything here that involved 200 of anything (in this case, categories and moves) should be done belt and braces, to say the least; the level of care required has not, perhaps, been adequately exhibited in this case. If any other editor had done this and then complained at ANI, I think there would be murmurs of aboriginal tools, etc; I suggest the filer withdraw it ASAP- if the community allows that. O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 17:08, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Trouts all 'round and move on. Nyttend's interpretation of the CfD result seems reasonable to me, even if the minutiae of the process wasn't followed exactly. BHG's attempt at "discussion" ("Are you going to revert promptly, or will I do it?") wasn't exactly aimed at getting to the bottom of things. Nyttend's response was, in part, needlessly inflammatory ("Yeah? Try it and I'll have your bit!" (this may not be a literal quote)), and BHG's response needlessly focused on the worst part, ignoring the offer to discuss informally or redo the CfD. I'd suggest to Nyttend that threatening to go after an admin's bit on the basis of a CfD that didn't really follow the process because you couldn't be bothered to tag all the pages is going someone overboard. And I'd suggest to BHG that any time the phrase "Nevertheless, I will take the bait" escapes your keyboard, you should probably think twice. Now let's have another, proper CfD that, you know, lists all the categories affected and tags the relevant pages. GoldenRing (talk) 17:20, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- @GoldenRing: That sequencing omits my objection at CFD/S[229] and moving of the listing to the opposed section, which Nyttend simply ignored.
Yes, I was terse in my reply, but since my politely-worded objection had not even been acknowledged, I saw no point in beating about the bush. If the moves were to be everted, it was best that it be done quickly before any further changes complicated matters, so I wanted to get straight to the point.
I accept that "I'll take the bait" was probably not a helpful phrase, but I was thrown at the time by the extraordinary aggression of Nyttend's threatening response, and wanted to convey that I would not be intimidated. (Having recently been on the receiving end of domestic violence in which I was threatened with retribution for calling police, that sort of aggression and threatened victimisation cuts deep with me). Still, poor phrasing.
There is a WP:ADMINACCT issue here, and I sincerely hope that Nyttend will be able to assure us that: a) as admin, they will in future at leaat reply to an objection from another admin before using their tools; b) their threatening hostility when challenged over this use of their admin tools is a totally out-of-character episode which will not be repeated. --BrownHairedGirl(talk) • (contribs) 18:10, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- @GoldenRing: That sequencing omits my objection at CFD/S[229] and moving of the listing to the opposed section, which Nyttend simply ignored.
- Comment (non-admin, active on CfD) If I had been Nyttend I would have said "I realize I was wrong and I'll never do it like this again" instead of filing this complaint against BrownHairedGirl. If I had been BrownHairedGirl I would have filed a complaint against Nyttend (after they clearly did not regret their behaviour in any way) but also I would not immediately have reverted Nyttend's page moves since it is very likely that the moves are in line with consensus. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:43, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Marcocapelle: I think that the question of whether
the moves are in line with consensus
is as yet unanswered. The CFD discussion attracted only one !vote; it listed only 1 of the 222 categories affected; and it involved the tagging of only 5 affected categs (4 were added to the discussion[230] only 1 minute before closure[231]). That's not a good test of consensus, and nor was the fact of the categories being untagged at CFD/S and listed there for only 46 minutes rather than the 48 hour minimum.
It takes only a minutes to use WP:AWB to generate a list of categories for a CFD discussion, and a few minutes more to tag them. If a nominator lacks the tools or skills to do that, the good folk at WP:BOTREQ will help with a smile. And doing it ensures that everyone potentially interested is properly notified, both through sight of the category pages and through the article alerts system.
And yes, maybe I should have filed a complaint after Nyttend's hostile response ... but my immediate concern was to restore the status quo ante before any further changes complicated or impeded a reversion. The community can now decide how to handle the remaining 217 categories. I am tempted to ask Fayenatic london to reconsider their closure of the CFD, since I think it was too far-reaching and thereby ultra vires; but between this discussion and a still-open RFAR, I'd prefer to leave a decision on that step still later. I know that Fayenatic london acted in good faith in making a closure which they thought was in line with a undocumented consensus; I disagree, but I think it might be helpful to have a DRV to resolve that question, which underlies all of this. --BrownHairedGirl(talk) • (contribs) 18:36, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Marcocapelle: I think that the question of whether
- Has there been any documented disagreement regarding the actual merits of the renaming proposal so far? As far as I can see, BHG seems to have stated her objections purely on the procedural level (and she probably had a point on that level), but she hasn't said if and why she would actually prefer the old titles. To me, the new ones (as favoured by Nyttend) appear to be rather obvious and undisputable improvements, and I honestly struggle to think of any reason a competent speaker of English might see for preferring the old set. If BHG has some substantial argument in their favour, or at least provide some plausible grounds for thinking that other editors might have such reasons, then it would make sense to say, "hey, let's roll this back and wait for some more feedback". If not, her complaint should be thrown out as unproductive process-wonkery. Fut.Perf.☼ 18:29, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Fut.Perf.: See my reply above to Marcocapelle. My objection is not
process-wonkery
; it is about the failure to do the notifications which might have generated more views to be added to be a very poorly-attended CFD debate.
The CFD was based on so little tagging of the affected categories (5 out of 222, or only 2%) that we simply don't know whether other views might have been added to the 1 !vote at CFD. --BrownHairedGirl(talk) • (contribs) 18:44, 9 January 2017 (UTC)- Well, your answer has again been purely on the process level. I'll ask you one more time, directly: do you, personally, actually have a reason to prefer the old titles, or can you at least think of such an argument? If you won't name such an argument here and now, I for one will consider the case closed. It's all very well to be an advocate for procedural fairness, but if there isn't at least a plausible expectation of a potential, legitimate content disagreement to be had, that is a waste of energy. Fut.Perf.☼ 19:58, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- I think you are missing the point. I can think of a number of situations where I have made a proposal I thought was a slam-dunk, as I could not envision any rational opposition, but upon presentation to a broad group of editors, learned that there were some objections that I hadn't considered. While I think the proposed wording is an improvement, and can't think why anyone would disagree, the main point is that the editors who might have an opinion on the subject were not notified. We have rules for notification and a 48 period for comment for a good reason - someone might come up with a coherent objection, and it doesn't hurt the project to ask and wait two days to be sure.--S Philbrick(Talk) 20:48, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- That's exactly why I intervened. I have not even tried to form a view on the substantive merits. I just want to ensure that those who might want to take a substantive view get a chance to do so.

I don't pretend to have a full grasp on the process issues, but my review of the background suggests that Nyttend and BHG Have a disagreement about the exact protocol for making this change. It looks to me like a sensible change but sometimes t's need to be crossed and i's need to be dotted before changes are effected. I think these two ought to be asked to have a discussion, probably on a CFD talk page and only if that discussion fails to reach a consensus should it end up here.--S Philbrick(Talk) 18:47, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Sphilbrick: The place where this discussion should have taken happened was at WP:CFD/S#Opposed_nominations. There is indeed a discussion there, in response to my objection, but sadly Nyttend chose to ignore it and instead to escalate to here and RFAR. I would happy for the substantive discussion to be continued at WP:CFD/S#Opposed_nominations ... but I do think that there is as a WP:ADMINACCT issue to be considered here in relation to Nyttend's conduct. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:55, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment (as closer of original CFD): The original CFD listed 5 categories at the top of the relevant hierarchy. All five were tagged. Only one was listed in the usual format at the start of the CFD, but the other four tagged categories were mentioned in the nomination. I therefore believe it was acceptable for me to also list them in the usual format before closing the discussion. I am raising this minor point first in my own defence because BrownHairedGirl raised this at 18:36 above, in the paragraph raising the possibility of a DRV.
- In my (5 years?) experience at CFD no-one takes exception to an WP:INVOLVED admin processing items that they have listed at CFDS themselves, but the categories must be tagged and must wait 48 hours, and should not be processed if there is any opposition. As Nyttend had not followed these steps, IMHO it was in order for BrownHairedGirl to use the bot to revert Nyttend's hasty processing. I note that BrownHairedGirl has extensive experience at CFD, whereas Nyttend's efforts have been mainly at Commons and elsewhere.
- It seems to me that trouts will be sufficient sanction, and the case in question should play out at CFDS. – FayenaticLondon 22:22, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Shouldn't we update WP:INVOLVED to formalize admins to be allowed processing items that they have listed at CFDS themselves? (I fully agree that this should be allowed if there is no opposition at all after 48 hours.) Marcocapelle (talk) 07:10, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- I share Fayenatic london's experience that CFDS has for years accepted admins processing moves which they had requested provided that all procedural requirements were met. I am not aware of this having met any objections, so I support Marcocapelle's proposal to note this at WP:INVOLVED. Obviously, that should note the requirement for all procedures to have been followed, with no admin allowed to use discretion in their own favour. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 22:23, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: Although I'm not very familiar with the ins and outs of CfD, I agree with the part of BHG's objection that said this should have had wider discussion and should be re-opened and re-listed citing all of the types of categories that will be affected, and given a wider airing. The CfD had only a single !vote, and in my mind probably should have at the very least been re-listed before closing. Also, I have to say, as an English major and professional editor, the old word order was correct English and the proposed new word order is not. That is, "populated [waterside] places" is correct English word order, and "[waterside] populated places" is not, or at the very least is much less so and is awkward. Also we have here two admins, one whose specialty is categories, and one who has made less than 0.9% of their edits in categories. I think the latter should have at least given the former respect and a valid hearing. Softlavender (talk) 04:51, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
Section header for easy editing
- I've been offline most of the day. Among our basic principles are the concepts of not demanding rigid adherence to process, of obeying community consensus as determined at XFDs, and of not using administrative tools to win battles. Here we have a CFD that closes in favor of a set of actions including instructions to me to get some categories renamed, BHG objects because I don't rigidly obey a process that's meant for undiscussed moves (note that the result of opposition at CFDS is a CFD, which was already completed), I strongly reject her demands to go against the CFD consensus and remind her that she's free to start a new discussion about the subject, and she goes ahead anyway and uses administrative tools to win the battle by creating more than one hundred categories after their deletion in accordance with the CFD. It's well established that abuse of rights leads to those rights being removed: create a lot of pages in defiance of XFD after being warned and your editing rights get removed, use rollback in a simple dispute (just my example, not something that happened here) and you lose rollback, vandalise a template and template-editor gets removed (again, example), and use admin rights in defiance of XFD consensus and you lose admin rights.

- Nyttend, see the top of WP:CFD/S. In the first para it says that categories
must be tagged with
and that a{{subst:cfr-speedy New name}}so that users of the categories are aware of the proposalrequest may be processed 48 hours after it was listed if there are no objections. This delay allows other editors to review the request to ensure that it meets the criteria for speedy renaming or merging, and to raise objections to the proposed change.

- Nobody else told you to list the categories without tagging them; that was your unilateral decision. The CFD closer told you to

[234]. They did not tell you to cut the CFD/S requirement for a 48 hour delay down to 46 minutes, and had no authority to tell you to do so. - Nobody else told you to use your own admin tools to trigger the bots. The CFD closer told you to
nominate the relevant sub-cats for speedy renaming
[235]. They did not tell you to use your own admin tools to implement the nomination.
- Nobody else told you to list the categories without tagging them; that was your unilateral decision. The CFD closer told you to
- I am not WP:INVOLVED. I have no substantive view on these categories, and throughout this I have sought only to uphold procedures so that interested editors get a chance to comment on proposals. I objected because I believed that the closing admin had exceeded their discretion, and the rest of this saga has been about you exceeding that closing admin's instructions.
- You, however, are WP:INVOLVED, because you used your tools against objections, in breach of process rules, in pursuit of a proposal which yourself had initiated.
- Per WP:ADMINACCT, you
are expected to respond promptly and civilly to queries about their Wikipedia-related conduct and administrator actions and to justify them when needed
. When I lodged my procedural objection[236] to your CFD/S nomination, I was unaware that you intended to use your own admin tools. But when you chose to use your tools, you then had a WP:ADMINACCT responsibility torespond promptly and civilly
to a procedural objection. - Having used your admin tools, you then had a WP:ADMINACCT responsibility to
respond promptly and civilly
to my request[237] that you revert. Instead you chose to respond with a threat[238] thatsanctions will be requested immediately: a block, [snipquote] and a desysop
. - You have been an admin since November 2007, almost as long as me. Nine years is quite long enough for you have learnt WP:ADMINACCT. You have been an editor since 2006-08-08, which is quite long enough for you to learn to read and follow the instructions on a procedural page before using that procedure.
- You have falsely accused me WP:WHEELWARing, a serious matter which involves reinstating the reversal of an admin action. In fact, I reversed an admin action per WP:RAAA. After your 9 years as an admin, it's time you took a few minutes to study the difference.
- As others have pointed out, I have been a regular participant at CFD for over ten years, whereas you appear to be unfamiliar with the procedure. When an admin vastly-more experienced than you in a particular field lodges a procedural objection to your proposed course of action, it is common sense to at least try to discuss that objection before proceeding.
- The status quo ante has now been restored. It's long past time for you to abandon your desire for vengeance aginst an admin who thwarted your desire to override long-standing procedures, and get back to the discussion at WP:CFD/S#Opposed_nominations. See you there. -BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 08:18, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- You — and you alone — decided to ignore all that.
- Comment Nyttend seems to be racking up quite a "threaten to go after people for not agreeing with me" record: [239] (summary: a clearly WP:INVOLVED close at RM, that threatened sanctions for using normal move processes in ways well supported by a long string of consensus decisions, just because he doesn't like the guideline in question – Nyttend was one of its most outspoken opponents at an RfC about it within the year, and had also agitated about the matter at the talk page of one of the RM participants). "I'm going to see you administratively punished" is not an appropriate approach for an admin to take about process not going the way they desire. I think this should be addressed sooner rather than later. It's not being addressed here now, and wasn't a few days ago, because these actions are being viewed in isolation. So: let's not view them in isolation. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 20:42, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
Proposal
The closer of the CFD, Fayenatic london, wrote the following a few hours ago at CFDS: "As for the categories nominated here, now that speedy renaming has been opposed (both on procedure by BrownHairedGirl and on merits by David Eppstein), they need to go to a full CFD. I suggest that this should present "Option A" and "Option B", either to approve the nomination, or to reverse the Dec 8 CFD." [240]. I propose that this be done forthwith, and a link to that discussion posted to this ANI. Softlavender (talk) 07:26, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support. That's the standard CFD/S way of handling objections. Time to move on, and start fixing this. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 08:24, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support GoldenRing (talk) 11:24, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support --S Philbrick(Talk) 17:32, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Abstain from !voting on this as an ANI proposal, but I'm supportive of this resolution to the conflict. We shouldn't need an ANI thread and formal proposal to the broader community to tell us to conduct an opposed speedy rename as we always do. It's well outside the scope of ANI to interfere with how our deletion processes are run, even in the sense of affirming how they're run. This should just be closed as no administrative action merited. ~ Rob13Talk 19:37, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Question for BU Rob13: If the status quo ante has been restored (which I think it has given BHG's comment in the section prior to this one), and no further rumble ensues, are you saying or implying that an additional CfD may not even be necessary (providing that the involved parties implicitly or explicitly concede to the status quo ante and/or withdraw the original CFD and CfD/S)? I'm not sure how all this works; my initial proposal was designed to put an end to the unnecessary squabble and move on to the resolution, but if the matter is already resolved by default or by protocol, then perhaps indeed this entire ANI filing can be closed as no administrative action needed, unless Nyttend continues his objections. IMO editors who call into question Nyttend's lack of judgment here and cite a possible pattern may have some cause for concern and could open a new thread or subthread, or file or post further at ArbCom, but I personally would just as soon have this matter settled without that drama, since the procedural protocol is pretty clear. Softlavender (talk) 06:37, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- That about sums up my thoughts as well. The step too far here was in the filing of the ANI. And it's not even that is represents problematic conduct so much as it makes me wonder at Nyttend's perspective on this affair that he thought BHG's conduct on the categories would sustain the call for a block. So while I'd like Nyttend to take more caution from this episode than his comments have suggested he has, I think if this can end without further sanction, it will be better overall. I don't think either of these two is about to make a grudge out of this, so I'd personally hope that nobody launches a follow up thread in the hopes this may end as amicably as it may.

- @BrownHairedGirl: You weren't (at least not especially, beyond the fact that some tense comments were exchanged). I was saying that Nyttend was involved, to the degree that they supported the moves. However, I actually got the "I'll have your bit" comment confused with other conduct from another ANI here when commenting on Nyttend (which is embarrassing), so I've amended my comment above to remove the innacurate reference to involvement. Apologies for the confusion. Snow let's rap 22:26, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

- @Softlavender: Any editor can, of course, take this to a CfD discussion. That's not something we need ANI to tell us to do, though. ANI isn't a venue to say when a deletion discussion is or isn't needed. It's a venue to request administrative review of a situation that may warrant administrative action. Anyone, including an administrator, may open a CfD on this issue in their capacity as a volunteer editor if they wish for this to be discussed further. ~ Rob13Talk 03:52, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

- Support - This should not have come this far. WP:IAR doesn't mean that processes and procedures can be ignored simply because they are in an editor's (or administrator's) way. For example, once an article has been PRODded, it cannot be PRODded again if the PROD is contested. Period. One also cannot simply delete/rename/move a series of articles/templates/categories/etc. simply because a few related articles were so deleted/renamed/moved at XfD or RM. Many trout are swimming in these waters. I recommend closing this and taking all affected categories through a full CfD. — Jkudlick ⚓ t ⚓ c ⚓ s 01:58, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support - I'm sensitive to BU Rob 13's argument above, but because an Arbitration request was, to some extent, dependent on there being an outcome to this ANI, I think a !vote is appropriate, even if it shouldn't be necessary. Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:18, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

- Comment: Until the procedure is in fact enacted, I feel it is necessary to !vote for it, because apparently(?) it has not yet been enacted due to Nyttend's accusations and/or threats. If someone would just go ahead and create the appropriate CfD as proposed by Fayenatic and reiterated above, and leave a link to it here, then we could all probably get back to doing whatever it is we do when we are not on the drama boards.

- Support This is the clear way forward. What we have here are two broadly respected admins who happened to share a bad day over some poor calls. Others have hilighted each of those stumbles above, so I won't belabour those details; suffice it to say, both users made multiple departures from both best practice and the principle of civil engagement over this matter. I don't know either incredibly well, but have had enough experience with both to suspect that, at this point, each is more embarrassed about this affair than they are letting on, for fear of ceding too much ground to the other in this discussion. So let's just back the whole matter up to the foreshortened CfD, proceed as normal from there, and move along. I'd also add that it would be nice to see some mutual apology once the substantive issue is resolved (for the curtness and lack of collegiality, even if they can't come to see eye-to-eye on the procedural matter), but it will suffice if each retires to their corner civilly. Snow let's rap 02:35, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Back at CFD
Per the discussion above, and a discussion with Fayenatic london and Nyttend at User talk:Fayenatic london#Next_steps_re_Waterside_populated_places (permalink), I have created a new CFD discussion at WP:CFD 2017 January 16. This lists all the categories, and offers editors a choice between finishing the renaming proposed by Nyttend, or reverting the 5 categories renamed so far.
In the discussion at FL's talk page, we have begun considering an RFC to examine the underlying procedural issues.
Thanks to everyone for their input. Does that wrap this whole thing up? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 01:06, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks. I think that does wrap things up, since there were no objections to this and no other proposed options, but we might want to leave this ANI thread unclosed so that for the next three days (that is, until the bot archives it after 72 hours of inactivity) people will notice the new CfD and !vote at it if they have an opinion.

Hello? I received a warning that completely I can NOT understand?? The boxing editing I have done..is result of 50 years + involvement with my Sport. Your organization will be better served if you can keep the organizations past the WBO ~OUT~ of the picture. Also: the duel and tri world title picture presented in modern is a dandy mess. Ready to advise Wickipedia. John Wilkinson [CONTACT INFO REDACTED] use my text long as it will work. Put return email to me thank you.

- Every article of interest watchlisted. It's only a handful of them anyway—just the ones where the IBO is present in the lead. Even if he did have a point in removing it (which he doesn't), the doublespeak manner in which he articulates himself and keeps posting personal information about himself (which led to me unwittingly tripping WP:OUT in the abovementioned ANI) makes it impossible for me at least to interact with him on the issue.

- There's also another one: John (Calm)Wilkinson (talk·contribs·logs).
It's more of a case of that he forgot his password [246] on each of those accounts successively and so had to create successive new accounts. Normally we block the old one(s) in that scenario, especially if the person's entire edit history has been disruptive (which is a large understatement in this case). They are also not valid alternate accounts in that he does not declare the accounts on the others' pages, and also he edited the same articles with the three accounts.

Good Morning. Is it this normal? Editor Interaction Analyser --Buxlifa (talk) 18:00, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Is there anything suspicious about their edits? Have you asked them if they're a single person behind both user ID's? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 18:18, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Panam2014 stopped editing on 7 October 2016, and was not blocked when they did so. Maybe they forgot their password or otherwise lost access to their account, because Pannam2014 only started editing for the first time the following day. The huge similarity in the names makes it clear there is no attempt to avoid scrutiny -- unless anyone can find examples of their trying to sway consensus or whatever.
- Panam2014 only made one further edit since they stopped, on 14 January this year. Maybe they remembered their password, or maybe they booted up an old computer that had their login saved automatically or something.
- Policy says "Editors must not use alternative accounts to mislead, deceive, disrupt, or undermine consensus". Buxlifa, rather than making your fourth edit to Wikipedia a post to this noticeboard, you could've asked, as Baseball Bugs suggests, a couple of polite questions of the users to clarify any curiosity you might have had. MPS1992 (talk) 18:53, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you for explaining the source of your concerns. You may be correct that this type of editing overlap is forbidden on the French Wikipedia. But it is my interpretation that it is not forbidden here on the English Wikipedia. So long as the users do not get involved in further edit warring or whatever it was that got them blocked briefly here on English Wikipedia previously, there is not a problem. Although, I would hope that swapping between accounts every few months for no explained reason is not part of their plans. MPS1992 (talk) 09:00, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Buxlifa: I've notified the user in question, which you are required to do when reporting them to ANI. As for the accounts; unless you have some evidence to the contrary, I'm not seeing any time at which this user has used their accounts deceptively, and thus no administrator action is necessary. I have, however, asked them to clarify the situation on their user page. Sam Walton (talk) 12:13, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Sam Walton: hi, on October 2016, I have lost my password and I have created a new account. So in January 2017, I took over the control of my last account but to finish some edits, and to find myself, I finish the work with Pannam2014. Moreover, in Pannam2014, I sign by Panam2014. Moreover, I find it unwelcome this request of Buxlifa, contributor who often opposed me on fr: Wikipedia and I consider his action as a Wikihounding.

- Hi. Since I'm notified : yes, I can testify that there was some confusion on the French wikipedia because Panam2014 lost his password, created another account, etc. His good faith has since been proven.

Assistance on Talk:List of states with nuclear weapons
| Closing, semi-protection is justified. Kim Dent-Brown (Talk) 15:51, 20 January 2017 (UTC) |
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
- I just semi-protected Talk:List of states with nuclear weapons
- I am somewhat involved here, but I feel that this was an obvious call. However, I want some independent review...
- The situation is that a crowd of IP editors abroad who may well be connected to each other started insulting longtime page editors and making antisemitic and other aspersions. There had been some positive content suggestions but despite warnings they could not stay away from abuse and provocations. There are clear indications based on edit behavior patterns that it involves IP-hoppers, not sure if that's proxies or what. It may well be one well-proxied individual, though there seem to be at least 2-3 personalities and language patterns showing up (could be one person faking three identities). Given the ongoing IP hopping actions against individual abusive IPs did not seem useful.
- My involvement is that I volunteer in the nonproliferation area on technical topics, have edited the article extensively in the past (and twice per talk page discussions/consensus recently). I don't think that's involved enough to disqualify taking this action, but as I said I'm noticeboarding for review by uninvolved admins. Thanks. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 23:57, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Seeing that your actions have been criticised at that talk page (e.g. by the last IP to leave a note), you've opened yourself to some wikilawyering. I've unprotected it (to spare you the complaints) and reprotected it (to spare it the disruption), so anyone will see that this situation matches the "any reasonable administrator" chunk of WP:INVOLVED. I disagree with your reasons for protection, but 115.84.189.168's announcement of attempted meatpuppetry, by itself, is enough to warrant protection. Nyttend (talk) 00:06, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Wtshymanski continues to revert edits from IP address editors.
| Closing because this seems to have run its course. There is some support for Wtshymanski and a feeling that while there have been some IP reversions recently, these do not amout to a pattern. However the restriction remains in place and s/he is warned not to let reversion become a pattern lest a block results. The IP editor/s are encouraged to make an account, to return to article editing and not to be so quick to come to AN/I in future before a genuine pattern is established.

Wtshymanski (talk · contribs · count · logs · page moves · block log) is continuing to routinely revert good faith edits made by IP address based editors in spite of an editing restriction preventing him from doing so.
Previous ANI complaints:
[248] (Result: Editing restriction on reverting any edits made by IP address based editors).
[249] (Result: 2 week block for violating edit restriction).
[250] (Result: 1 month block for violating edit restriction).
Now Wtshymanski is back to his old ways of routinely recerting IP address based edits.
- [251] where Wtshymanski has reverted a good faith edit from an IP that a Geiger counter is a type of radiometer (which it is, though the linked to article discussed a different type of radiometer). Wtshymanski reverted the change with an incorrect edit summary.
- [252] where an IP address editor made a good faith edit that made the presentation of the units consistent. Wtshymanski reverted the change restoring the inconsistent presentation.
This continued campaign can only serve to drive away potentially useful editors from the project. This action must be met with a longer block (or even indefinite as he shows no intention of complying with the restriction). 85.255.237.163 (talk) 15:31, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Regardless of the state of the IP that is complaining, Wtshymanski is under a community imposed sanction that prevents any reversion of IP edits. See WP:Editing restrictions. Even allowing for the exceptions of obvious vandalism, the second diff provided above is certainly a violation of his restrictions, and given the previous pattern if this is the only one I will be highly surprised. Only in death does duty end (talk) 15:53, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Just noting for the record that the same IP user who posted this complaint was blocked in November for doing the same, as an obvious case of wikihounding (Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive939); Wtshymanski was left unsanctioned. I, personally, see no reason not to react in the same way again (and I personally would refuse to enforce this restriction on W. anyway.) Fut.Perf.☼ 16:00, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

- It would take too long and probably annoy everyone so no. From looking at Wtshymanski contributions from the past few months they have been reverting in part or in full good faith edits by IP editors. So this isnt an isolated incident. Dec - Vandalism and BLP violations are generally an exception to revert restrictions. Reverting overly promotional material is not. Whats more interesting is that there is a pattern of named users making changes to articles (generally in the Electronics area) which are subsequently edited by an IP (correcting minor spelling issues etc) then Wtshymanski straight away reverts or alters the original change. So its clear they are watching the articles for edits by IP editors. Only in death does duty end (talk) 16:20, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Ymblanter what's your take on this ? Personally I agree that the IP's edits were not vandalism and per the link above , Wtshymanski is prohibited from reverting I.P editors per sanction. Since it was agreed upon and closed by admins, admins need to enforce that sanction .KoshVorlon} 16:42, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) In other other news, I'm wondering why a series of commonly-geolocating IP addresses have been used to hound Wtshymanski over this restriction in exactly the same manner as the user who originally proposed the restriction, a user who was later confirmed to be a sockpuppet, and whose other sockpuppets have also grave-danced over Wtshymanski's earlier blocks. I suggest whoever closes this ought to take this IP's comments with a grain of salt. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 16:40, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

- I know nothing about the history of this, but Wtshymanski clearly violated his editing restriction, regardless of who reported them or their motivations. I've seen SPIs created by what was obviously a sock, but the SPI itself had merit. So, the filer was blocked, and the reported puppet was blocked. I have no opinion on the merits of the IP's history or whether they deserved to be blocked. Future Perfect at Sunrise is correct that they don't have to block W for violating the edit restriction. No administrator is required to take action. That doesn't mean, though, that W shouldn't be blocked by another administrator.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:52, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- It looks like this is not a good-faith request, and such requests should be declined. Otoh, I did not check Wtshymanski reverts by IPs, but if this is indeed true that they routinely revert IPs for something different from vandalism (or possibly BLP violations), they should be at least warned and possibly blocked for the reverts. If there is only this sock which is involved I would drop the case altogether.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:54, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Ymblanter: The blocked IP gives diffs of the two reverts by W. The IPs reverted do not appear to be the same person as the blocked IP. As far as I know, W's editing restriction doesn't make exceptions for anything, including vandalism and BLP violations. Finally, if this is how everyone is going to react when W violates their restriction, why doesn't someone start a discussion proposing that the restriction be eliminated?--Bbb23 (talk) 17:06, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Let me have a look of their contributions first and then respond. I am afraid there could be different scenarios here.--Ymblanter (talk) 17:09, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- I checked their last 50 contributions and found one revert of an IP (which seems to be correct in terms of content, but this is not the point). I would say a short-term block would helkp. Since they edit only once in a couple of weeks, may be a two-week block.--Ymblanter (talk) 19:10, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

- Ignore I have no inclination to call for action on this post, given that it's raised by a (now blocked) anon IP, looking to impose a restriction that was called for originally by a (now blocked) prolific sock and harasser of Wtshymanski. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:57, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- I've reviewed the last month or so of Wtshymanski's edits, and as far as I can tell the two diffs above are the only two examples of direct reversions of IP edits which violate the restriction in that time. In light of that I suggest a warning that the text of the restriction is to be taken literally (no reverts of IPs period) and that future reverts will result in a block. But the last block was a little over six months ago, and I don't believe that these two examples demonstrate a return to the previous disruptive pattern, and thus no reason to completely prevent a constructive editor from editing. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 17:03, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
I am going to repeat what I wrote in 2015:[253]
(In response to "Could someone who thinks WTS makes good content contributions, give a brief summary of those contributions?").
"I caution against the common "content creation is king, error fixers are second-class editors" attitute. That being said, less than two minutes of searching (I timed it) found these two:
- Taking a picture that most editors wouldn't know to take or how to describe the significance of and adding it to an aricle:[254][255]
- Copyediting an article and adding content that most editors would not be able to create: [256]
If anyone wants me to I will take a half an hour and find dozens more. The engineering articles need editors with engineering knowledge. I really don't want to lose Wtshymanski's productive contributions if we can find a way to stop him from constantly finding new ways to be disruptive and driving away other editors."
The bad news is that Wtshymanski has a long history of testing any boundaries the community sets, getting closer and closer to the line until someone notices and he gets blocked. The good news is that even a short block results in an immediate cesation of the behavior, and many months before he crosses the line again, often in new an creative ways. --Guy Macon (talk) 18:37, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- And I was so enjoying the improved climate recently. Wikipedia was tolerable without sock puppet harassment. Too good to last. --Wtshymanski (talk) 00:50, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Wtshymanski, it is unfair that an IP-hopping sock is watching your every move looking for some error that he hopes ANI will club you with. Nothing about this case requires any admin action other than perhaps a mild caution about being more careful not to revert IPs.
- On a related subject, there appears to significant support for not having the restriction at all. If you choose to request that the restriction be lifted, I will support that request. --Guy Macon (talk) 18:38, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
Lift Wtshymanski's restriction
I'm broadly familiar with the underlying issue and the origin of the restrictions. However, as this thread proves, it seems to be unworkable and only exposes Wtshymanski to harassment. Editing restrictions are meant to reduce the amount of disruption, not to be a Damocles' sword over long-term editors' necks, and can only work if reporting is done in good faith and with concern to benefit of the encyclopedia. Both reverts provided here as evidence fall in the category of "revertable on the merits", and Wtshymanski provided a reasonable edit summary; had they been made by a registered user, they certainly wouldn't fall into the category of "blind reverting". Therefore, I propose that the Wtshymanski's editing restriction of reverting IPs be formally rescinded, and replaced with a formal warning that Wtshymansky may only revert IPs on the merits, and provide an edit summary, and that his return to the old ways will result in blocks or other sanctions. No such user (talk) 16:03, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support as proposer, obviously. No such user (talk) 16:03, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support agree that if the restiction is hurting the encyclopaedia rather than helping it, is intended, then the restriction is not fit for purpose. O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 16:12, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support (but would be open to maintaining some lighter form of restriction, such as one against using rollback or reverts without informative edit summaries). The restriction was apparently passed because Wtshymanski once had a habit of being too quick in reverting IP editors irrespective of the merits of their edits. If the intention was to stop this behaviour, it has stopped, judging by the review of his recent editing. Going beyond this and trying to stop him from doing perfectly normal, reasonably-argued, occasional reverts in the context of legitimate editorial disagreements, which would be perfectly okay if he was facing fellow registered editors also, simply makes no sense, and I can't blame him for having occasionally disregarded a restriction that is so plainly nonsensical. Fut.Perf. ☼ 17:17, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Strong support: Nothing in Wtshymanski's history even hints at him returning to the behavior that resulted in the restriction. I have my disagreements with Wtshymanski, but I have always found him to be honest, to keep any promises he makes, and to consistently and in good faith do what he thinks best for the encyclopedia. He also has also always responded very well to even the shortest block, so why impose a long-term restriction when a 24-hour block would have had the exact same result? --Guy Macon (talk) 19:42, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support, but with a requirement to use informative edit summaries, and a warning about not returning to his old behavior. Paul August ☎ 18:41, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support - this isn't working. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:50, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

Long term disruption from anon using 108.65..., 108.66..., 99.101...
An editor using IPs (with some repetition over time) has been vandalizing, trolling and, when blocked, evading blocks. The user tends to latch on to a few ideas for some time before shifting focus. Past and current interests have been Vi Hart, Q*bert, penis size (in various articles), Wikipedia:Wikipediholism test, claims that various things are banned or illegal (dominoes, numerous common numbers, Tetris), etc. While roughly 3/4 of their edits are or seem to be constructive (often dealing with geometry, coding and such), the rest are either unequivocally vandalism and/or trolling or indicate a WP:CIR problem. In the past two years, they have been blocked at least 20 times and evaded most of those blocks immediately. Has this been a registered account, they would have been indefed quite some time ago.
Vandalism, trolling or CIR, etc.: Special:Contributions/108.66.234.192, [[258]], [259], [260], [261], [262], [263], [264], [265], [266], [267], [268], [269], [270], [271], [272], [273], [274], [275], [276], [277], [278], [279] (see also Talk:Tetris/Archive 2#Legality), [280], [281], [282], [283], [284], [285], [286], [287], [288], [289], [290], [291], [292], [293], [294], [295], [296], [297], [298], [299], [300], etc.
Known prior blocks withing the past two years: 99.101.126.233, 108.71.122.12, 99.106.226.107, 99.104.4.100, 108.65.83.165, 99.101.126.89, 99.101.127.31, 108.66.234.192, 99.101.114.58, 99.101.112.238, 108.71.122.41, 108.71.120.222, 108.71.121.129, 108.71.120.43, 108.65.83.222, 108.65.81.159, 108.66.234.227, 108.65.81.68, 108.65.81.68.
Though the user's IP changes frequently, it is sometimes kept for a few days. I have identified roughly 100 IPs used over two years with perhaps a dozen of them being used in two time frames separated by several months. - SummerPhDv2.0 23:18, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- As the editor has been responding (though not constructively) on one of the IP talk pages, I have notified them of the discussion there.
- While this is obviously a dynamic IP (often "helped" along to avoid a block), the reuse of several of the IPs and apparent rarity of other editors on those IPs seems to indicate there would be limited collateral damage from a range block. - SummerPhDv2.0 02:40, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I took a look at User:SummerPhDv2.0/Wikipediholism trolling. It looks like the recent IP addresses used are:
- 108.65.80.0/22
- 108.66.232.0/22
- 108.71.120.0/22
- There are also some older ones. On 99.101.112.0/22, the last activity seems to be around October 2016 in this edit. 99.104.4.0/22 and 99.106.224.0/22 don't seem to have any recent activity in the past year. I think a range block is doable on the first three. Most of the edits on these ranges fit the profile of someone obsessed with Wikipediholism, dominoes, Tetris, and penises. However, I'd feel better if someone double-checked my work. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 14:56, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- You did "not necessarily" make them? A number of your comments seem to be carefully constructed. Rather than saying you were not blocked and that you did not evade blocks, you stated that IPs are sometimes incorrectly accused of socking. Please state unequivocally which edits, if any, you did not make. Otherwise, it would seem that all of the vandalism shown is yours. - SummerPhDv2.0 15:48, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- You still have not answered the question. Which of the forty or so edits identified as vandalism above, if any, are you saying you did not make? (I assure you there are at least a hundred more, with a tiny sampling linked from User:SummerPhDv2.0/Wikipediholism_trolling.)
- You also did not answer NinjaRobotPirate's question: is the Genghis Khan, Motion picture content rating system, and UTF-32 stuff also you?
- Also, while this discussion continues, please stop adding "information" based on your obsession with penis size.[301] As there are significant questions regarding your truthfulness, I will continue to revert any and all unsourced edits. Grayfell seems to be following similar thinking. - SummerPhDv2.0 00:20, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Alright, since the disruption seems to continue (including edit warring to blank an article), and nobody has objected, I'm going to do the three range blocks above. Because there are some constructive edits coming from this range occasionally, I'll start off short – just two weeks, which I think is lenient given the long-term trolling.

Odd editing behavior at User talk page
StylesClash18 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
X!'s Tools for Page: Here
This user has been engaged in strange editing on their User talk page over an extended period of time. There have been several attempts to identify what is going on -- most recently by samtar, to which StylesClash18 removed it indicating there was some sort of issue with the welcome table. Prior to samtar's interaction, there were 27 reverts back and forth of the same content with in 9 minutes. Nick gave the user a warning prior to this, which they responded to again indicating some sort of editing issue with saving edits to the page. Unfortunately, that doesn't add up because to revert an edit, it has to be saved to the page - and reverting the same content back and forth would not change the way it displays.
Overall, the activity began on December 4, 2016 with reverting the same content back and forth. StylesClash18 made 181 edits to their talk page in the month of December 2016, largely reverts. In January 2017 at the time of filing this, StylesClash18 has made 321 edits to their talk page, which are mostly reverts. The time between reverts is an average of 18 seconds apart as shown on X's Tools. This user has not adequately explained why they are reverting their talk page, specifically the same content, back and forth repeatedly. It almost appears like some sort of bot or script is running. The only thing i've picked up on is that the user always ends with their edit count on an even, round number (ex. 3000, or as it stands currently, 4,550 edits). Outside of their talk page, they've made mostly wrestling related edits, removing, reorganizing and retitling sections with occasional grammatical changes.
WP:OWNTALK states that:
"While the purpose of article talk pages is to discuss the content of articles, the purpose of user talk pages is to draw the attention or discuss the edits of a user. Wikipedia is not a social networking site, and all discussion should ultimately be directed solely toward the improvement of the encyclopedia. User talk pages must serve their primary purpose, which is to make communication and collaboration among editors easier. Editors who refuse to use their talk page for these purposes are violating the spirit of the talk page guidelines, and are not acting collaboratively."
I believe the editor is not using their talk page in a manner that complies with that purpose. -- Dane talk 00:05, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Kinda looks like some type of bot testing. Mlpearc Phone (open channel) 00:10, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Bot policy#Bot usage: [...]
Operation of unapproved bots, or use of approved bots in unapproved ways outside their conditions of operation, is prohibited and may in some cases lead to blocking of the user account and possible sanctions for the operator.
Administrators blocking a user account suspected of operating an unapproved bot or an approved bot in unapproved ways should block indefinitely.
Note that high-speed semi-automated processes may effectively be considered bots in some cases, even if performed by an account used by a human editor. If in doubt, check.
@Mlpearc Phone: Testing what exactly? User has been asked that many times and the user refused to give a fruitful answer. [302] [303] where user instead of giving a fruitful response tells me to leave the talk page. This violates the quote from above. Also mind that per above quote from the official bot policy, making automated edits without approval can be blocked indefinitely. This isn't a one off thing, it has been going on for months now. -- A Certain White Cat chi? 00:26, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- How the heck am I supose to know, I just said what it looked like and you do not have to qoute policy to me. Mlpearc Phone (open channel) 00:31, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'm guessing here, but I think I have an idea what's going on. They're making changes but whenever something doesn't work out the way Styleclash18 expects, they undo the edit. That may seem obvious to us but this user looks like they're thinking of UNDO like CTRL-Z in MS Word. If you click it enough times, it goes backwards to an earlier text change because UNDO keeps a small history of changes. Except, of course, Wiki UNDO just undoes the last edit. So what we're seeing is the Styleclash18 undoing the same edit over and over again whereas they might actually be trying to go back further but not realising that WP is only taking them back by 1 edit. Blackmane (talk) 02:02, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I may have believed that had it been only a few times, but this is consistent for over a month and the user has said they've "resolved it" several times with no obvious changes to the page other than users questioning it. Also worth noting, the user has confirmed socks: BigRedMonster12 and KOMania16 per this diff which I became aware of after the AN/I post. -- Dane talk 02:53, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Mlpearc Phone: I am sorry that wasn't an accusation, rather an observation on top of your observation.
- @Dane: Given how the user revert wars with themselves and abruptly stops, there is no real change. They revert far too quickly even for word IMHO. They are also very quick to resolve talk page questions on their conduct. They could be WP:GAMEing the system though at this point I am unsure what is left to game - save for editcountitis for adminship.

I should mention that they tried to remove this ANI discussion with the reasoning of this: "here is no bot being operated but there have been multiple problems with my talk page. These problems have been solved with assistance from multiple editors". JudgeRM (talk to me) 18:36, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I left them a final warning. A block for disruptive editing may be in order soon. Bradv 18:38, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- My initial reaction would be to assume they're attempting to game ECP. Sam Walton (talk) 18:39, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
To clear the issue up - I have edited the same pages as suspected sock puppets BigRedMonster12 and KOMania16 but I have no relation to these accounts at all. After considering the circumstances, I have decided not to retire but would appreciate other editor's co-operation. Simply, my talk page should be left alone, with no edits conducted by myself or other editors. I apologise for any inconvenience caused but my style of editing may differ to other editors. StylesClash18 19:02, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- This does not clear up the issue. You still have confirmed sock puppets to you and you may not restrict the usage of your talk page the way you suggested (see the policy above). I have opened a sockpuppet investigation to look for any other socks that have not been declared here. -- Dane talk 03:18, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
Since the issue cannot be solved, I am announcing my retirement. StylesClash18 15:06, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- I would note that you would have gotten less flack if you'd used your sandbox, although your editing pattern is probably a bit excessive even for that. As said above, you cannot bar allcomers from your talk page. BTW if you do decide to come back, note that your signature is not compliant with WP:Sig as it lacks any links to your user page, talk page or contributions page.

user Planktonium in John de Ruiter artikel
the John de Ruiter artikel is almost the only thing Planktonium endless edits and keeps systematically adding bad changings.
Deleting banner A and Deleting banner B
Adding promotion info: promo 1 and promo 2 and promo 3
Polishing out or deleting reference of lesser positive info f.e.:delete 1 and delete 2 and delete 3
Today Planktonium made already 9 edits, resulting in lots of reference errors on the artikel because of his reference changes. In Teahouse Planktonium accused me of being an litigants (for no reason) and askes to find my ip adres..
Could this user be blocked?
Can the banner he earlier deleted be brought back?
Can a thirth person check if it aint best to put the artikel back on edit-date 00:00, 19 November 2016 Zupotachyon?
Thx in advance, Richard Gooi (talk) 22:51, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- That article is certainly a lovingly crafted advert for a lifestyle guru right now. Guy(Help!) 23:03, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- You forgot to add "In naff brown plastic". Jokes aside, I threw out some extremely poorly sourced BLP, read the damn thing and concluded it's WP:PROMO, which leaves us with a SPA engaging in years of promoting this person, which, to my mind results in WP:NOTHERE. Kleuske (talk) 23:52, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- The more I look at this article the worse it looks. I just cleaned up some dead refs... turns out 6
deadreferences (under 4 different reference numbers) were actually all to the same fawning interview with John deRuiter. I managed to track down a live copy of the translation of the original, now hosted on John deRuiter's website. I'm almost afraid to poke the other references. - It appears to me that Planktonium is doing a bit of white washing here. He or she removed seemingly reliably sourced material with the invalid rationale that the links were no longer valid and has accused Richard Gooi of having a conflict of interest Talk:John_de_Ruiter#Edits. Note that Planktonium is an WP:SPA who has never edited outside of this topic in almost 5 years. Meters (talk) 02:56, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Hi Meters, your refering to the 6 Brummelman-interview refs which were earlier al correct links on 20:06, 7 October 2016 refering to a tiny article in a Magazine called: "Innerself Issue 27" But Planktonium changed it into dead-link to the Paravision magazine on 19:47, ref meshup 1 with promo and 20:50 of 16 January 2017 ref meshup 2
- Planktonium is an SPA and started this artikel, it was almost totally deleted 4 years ago. Richard Gooi (talk) 08:10, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

- Thank you for the report, User:Richard Gooi. You missed alerting the user to this ANI discussion; I've done it for you. The article is a biography of a living person, and those biographies are under ArbCom discretionary sanctions. I could and would have topic banned the user from editing the article, if they had been alerted to the discretionary sanctions for BLPs. I've alerted them now, and if the promotional editing continues, I will ban them. Unless another admin blocks them per WP:NOTHERE first, which would not be unreasonable IMO. Richard Gooi and others, please feel free to re-report here, or simply tell me on my page, if the problematic editing continues and I miss it. Yes, the multiple issues banner can presumably be restored. I'd do it myself, except that I intend to warn the user about a possible topic ban, so I'd rather not get involved with editing the article in any way. Somebody else, perhaps? Guy? Do you think it's sufficiently improved now, so perhaps only the COI tag is needed? Bishonen talk 10:25, 17 January 2017 (UTC).
- At the moment there still some issues that been wite-wahed and some not so clear parts and prome bits, tomorrow I will look into that and cleanup. After that others can say if its okay. Richard Gooi (talk) 16:10, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Worked on all issues, added two Oxford-scientific-refs. Only wonder if the 4CD-titels are Wikipedia suitable. I understand they are together with 340 more CD's like those for sale on his website. Since i already did some changes on this artikel, i let this decision left to some other editor if the present 4 CD titels should be on Wiki? Richard Gooi (talk) 17:21, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
Edit war over failed verification
at Kingsley C. Dassanaike. I've fully protected for now, but don't have time to look into the failed verification. Is a BLP. Samsara 14:18, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Is there a reason why people feel the need to pound the revert button and calling other editors liars in edit summaries? I've never seen such a procedure resolve a dispute. I also don't see the information in the supposed source. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 14:49, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Wow, I've gone years without coming here, now I seem to be a regular visitor. You guys are swell and all, but I hope not to visit again for a while. My part is that the article Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kingsley C. Dassanayake, closed and reopened, survived with clear consensus despite being put up for speedy within an hour of its creation, rather incessant tagbombing by Obi2canibe, and when those tags were addressed, tagbombing some more, and removal of information claimed by Obi2canibe to be what was lacking in the article. Now that it has survived, Obi2canibe is still being disruptive by tagging things like birthdate and place of birth, added by Sri Lankan editors. Sure it needs more sources, but
tagging the article isn't going to fix anything, and based on his behavior through the debate, these are tags for sore-losing. If the community decides tags on every detail in the article are necessary, I will accept that from uninvolved editors, but from him it's a case of Wikipedia:Drop the stick and back slowly away from the horse carcass--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 14:56, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
An editor thinks something might be wrong with this page. That editor won't actually make any effort to fix it, but can rest assured that they've done their encyclopedic duty by sticking on a tag.
Please allow this tag to languish indefinitely at the top of the page, since nobody knows exactly what the tagging editor was worked up about.

- To answer Jo-Jo Eumerus, there's a difference between editors who occasionally find themselves having to delete an article and those who revel in deletion. A look at their edit history will tell you which type is which. So, I'm one of those "people feel the need" because I have seen enough of these deletionists to have no more kindness or patience for them. Deletion is sometimes necessary, it should not be the first handy recourse for anyone edits Wikipedia.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 14:56, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
Kintetsubuffalo, do you dispute Obi2canibe's assertion that there is unsourced information in Kingsley C. Dassanaike; in particular, that there is information claimed to be in a given source which is in fact not there? Mackensen (talk) 15:32, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Mackensen, I dispute that tagbombing minutiae solves anything, especially from an editor who's been trying to delete the thing from step 1. Several editors put up both the place and date of birth, and a quick search of the Bronze Wolf list will show him as the only Sri Lankan, pointed out to me by Lankan Scouters who I have been in the process of getting sources from. I left his valid tag about the Braille-even in the AfD it was agreed that needs a better source, and I have written to the Ceylon School for the Deaf & Blind and the descendant org for the World Council for the Welfare of the Blind, no answer yet to either request. Somewhere in all the mess, (and it was an ugly AfD), the sources got scrambled and the proper cite for that "information claimed to be in a given source" should actually be [1]--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 15:53, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

- You need to WP:AGF and not assume that anyone who challenges you is involved in a grand conspiracy against the scouting movement. The only reason that I even knew of this article was because of your posting on WP:LK which I follow. When someone challenges you don't go into WP:BATTLEGROUND and blindly revert, assigning motives to their actions and using abusive language in edit summaries (1, 2, 3, 4). Step back and check your contributions - no one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes.
- I cannot verify the Ameresekere source but I shall WP:AGF and that it contains Dassanaike's date/place of birth and says that he was chairman of the Extension Scout Committee for handicapped Scouts of the World Organization of the Scout Movement. As an experienced editor you should know that Wikipedia is not a reliable source and we can't use List of recipients of the Bronze Wolf Award to verify that Dassanaike is the only Sri Lankan to receive the award.

- If I recall correctly, my first ever interaction with Drmies involved me tagging virtually every sentence in an unsourced article as needing a citation, and him reverting me before helping me fix the problem. He later called my initial act of mass-tagging "a bit POINTy" or something to that effect. Honestly, I think over-tagging, while it does look unattractive in the short term and has no doubt been abused by people who actually were behaving POINTily, is borderline acceptable. If an article lacks sources, tagging it in some fashion is always the right way to go; adding an inline tag at every point where one would expect, ideally, to find a citation is not always the best way to go about it, but it is much clearer than adding a single template to the top of the page, and makes clearing the article up easier, in my opinion. The above That editor won't actually make any effort to fix it, but can rest assured that they've done their encyclopedic duty by sticking on a tag is almost certainly completely out of line; per WP:VOLUNTEER, no one is under any obligation to fix all the problems with any particular article themselves, and tagging (especially with some kind of in-line explanation using the "Reason=" parameter or invisible WP:COMMENTs) is making an effort, however small, to fix it. Removing tags without making any effort to address the underlying issues is inherently disruptive and always much, much worse than any act of mass-tagging. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 01:12, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Hijiri88: would not a simple {{refimprove}} at the top serve the same purpose? My entire objection is and has been Obi2canibe behaving POINTily, i.e. removing information he himself called for in the AFD [305] and replacing a spurious {{Copypaste}} tag to an already-fixed section [306]. Removing is not fixing/"making an effort", and tagging is not fixing/"making an effort" if one has an agenda or bias. Also, "much, much worse"? Really?--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 03:25, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
I've unprotected the article to allow the discussed constructive changes to be applied. Samsara 03:49, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I was speaking generally. A simple header would have perhaps been better in the 4+ years ago example I alluded to above, but in this case what you call "tagbombing" consists of four tags. Tagging specific content that is unreferenced or whose reference isn't sufficient is usually preferable to placing a tag at the top of the article that says nothing about exactly what refs need improving. You above complained that
nobody knows exactly what the tagging editor was worked up about
and how theeditor won't actually make any effort to fix it
, but now you are complaining about the editor being too specific about what his problem is? - You are edit-warring to remove three "citation needed" tags and one "failed verification" tag because you think think the one "failed verification" tag was inappropriate? You are much closer to violating WP:POINT here than Obi2canibe, from what I'm seeing. Using the edit summary to accuse someone of "lying" (emphasis yours) is inappropriate in general, but if you are calling someone a liar at the expense of explaining 75% of your edit you are way out of line.
Even for the remaining 25% that you did mention in your edit summary, you are wrong to say that the source verifies the content to which it is attached: all the source says is that (1) he is from Sri Lanka, (2) he received a Bronze Wolf Award in 1973; if this has anything whatsoever to do with hisserv[ing] as the Chairman of the Extension Scout Committee for handicapped Scouts of the World Organization of the Scout Movement
it is not clear to me. Is the award presented to outgoing (or incoming) chairmen of that committee? Nine other people received the award in 1973, so that seems unlikely.- Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 04:48, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- So on further examination it turned out that Kintetsubuffalo actually agreed with Obi2canibe that the reference failed verification, and replaced it with an offline ref that I can only assume actually verifies the content. This means that the edit-warring was even POINTier than I thought, and the amount of edit-content addressed in Kintetsubuffalo's edit summary was not 25%, but 0%.

- What I mean is, if we have such a ref, it can (and should) be marked accordingly in the article. Samsara 06:47, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Umm... does that discussion belong on ANI? It's one thing if we don't have such a ref and there is an edit war going on over whether the specific lines should be tagged or a large tag should be placed at the top of the article (or if someone is repeatedly claiming that a source that doesn't verify the article content is enough, or is making baseless accusations in edit summaries, or some such), but ...
- If the user conduct is off the table at this point then there's no point discussing article content here, and this thread should be closed.
- Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 07:14, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Hijiri88: I disagree with your approach here severalfold. Number 1, if there is an issue, let's resolve it and then close the thread, not break it up into a hundred different venues. Number 2, tags per article have only recently somewhat stabilised and remain at a relatively high level. All tag placement does is create a perennial backlog that, unless we change user attitudes, we have little chance of ever addressing. We are so far fortunate that, unlike the German Wikipedia, this problem has not yet spread to the pending changes mechanism, knock on wood. The blanket assertion that tag placement at any level is acceptable, which you've almost argued for, is not a good platform imo. On BLPs particularly, it is sensible to address sourcing issues asap. Assertions about birth place can be controversial and should be supported by a reference if possible. Samsara 07:59, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Number 1: ANI is not for article content disputes. If there is a user conduct problem here (and I'm not sure if there is or isn't) it's KB's removing maintenance templates that were not inappropriate and referring to three or four such templates as "tagbombing".
- Number 2: That may be right as a general point, but in this case a ref was added inline that had no relation to the article content to which it was attached. I wish we could just remove such refs, but there are plenty of people who would edit-war endlessly over it. Tagging is the next best thing. A tag was added, and then removed with the bogus rationale that the source supposedly mentioned the name of the topic. If I speak to your concerns directly, then I can say that the difference between inline tags and header tags is that inline tags are super-easy to address and remove, whereas with a single "refimprove" template there is no way to know exactly what it is referring to and so no conceivable way to fully address the tagger's concern without talk page consensus.

- @Kintetsubuffalo: Looking at this article again, I think my preference would be for the date and place of birth to be omitted unless they can be supported by a reference, and to be re-instated later when a reference has been obtained. Also, the Sinhalese braille claim is supported by two references further down the article - why can these not be used to support the same statement in the lede, rather than leaving the tag there? Samsara 07:59, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Hijiri88: I disagree with your approach here severalfold. Number 1, if there is an issue, let's resolve it and then close the thread, not break it up into a hundred different venues. Number 2, tags per article have only recently somewhat stabilised and remain at a relatively high level. All tag placement does is create a perennial backlog that, unless we change user attitudes, we have little chance of ever addressing. We are so far fortunate that, unlike the German Wikipedia, this problem has not yet spread to the pending changes mechanism, knock on wood.

- What I mean is, if we have such a ref, it can (and should) be marked accordingly in the article. Samsara 06:47, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Samsara:If I can <!-- hide them like this --> while seeking verification, I can go with that.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 11:09, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Kintetsubuffalo: But why would you want to do that? If someone tagged something in an article I had recently written, and I wasn't able to immediately present them with the source, I would remove it. The one exception would be if it was from a borrowed book or the like, which I could no longer check on short notice, but which I was fairly certain fully verified the content, in which case I would give the name of the source. Normally, I would leave the tag in and visible, and add an <!-- invisible comment --> that clarifies that I probably got the information from a source that I couldn't check on short notice and includes enough bibliographic information that someone else could check it. But if you don't know where the information comes from, then it is unsourced, and has been challenged. Removing or tagging such information is very common, and in line with our core content policy; COMMENTing out the tags so they are only visible to people checking the source is an unusual practice, and frankly I've never seen it. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 09:51, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Kintetsubuffalo: I think that would be fine. I've made an edit suggestion that I think reflects this discussion. Anyone should feel free to revert if they find any mistake in it. Samsara 11:14, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Samsara:Beat me too it, I did almost identical edits to yours, thanks!--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 11:18, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Okay, sorry about that, :) I wasn't sure if you'd prefer someone else to remove the tags, so I thought I'd do that. Happy editing! Samsara 11:21, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

It seems that when I add three tags its WP:TAGBOMBING but when Kintetsubuffalo: adds two tags to the same article its OK. Given Kintetsubuffalo's WP:OWNERSHIP of the article and trigger happy reverting who here truly beliefs that he would have allowed me to add Template:Refimprove to the top of the article.--obi2canibetalk contr 20:43, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
User DaveA2424
User DaveA2424 has a history of making Unsourced edits, Admin Oshwah warned them at one point here and their talk page was full of warnings, they cleared it after each warning was issued which can be seen in their history, for adding Unsourced material to the same article that I warned them about and other articles. They were adding Unsourced material to the WWE Hall Of Fame myself and User InFlamester20 warned them here. Dave decided to take it to my talk page instead of the article talk page and make it personal with me which can been seen here in my archives, note they never once went after the other user who warned them, Warnings I issued were via Twinkle. 2 other users LM2000 and NewsAndEventsGuy posted on my talk page to him about his behavior and posting Unsourced material on the article. NewsAndEventsGuy posted here on his talk page about his behavior, Dave ofcourse removed and then went to NewsAndEventsGuys talk here continuing his behavior. I said at that time if it continued ANI would be the next course of action. It has now been almost 2 weeks of no contact with him and suddenly he made it a point to once again bring his childish battlefield mentality to my talk page making no sense whatsoever about removing the conversation, which was archived not removed, and accusing myself and the other users involved of mob mentality and that we would be reported. Dave was then told once again not to post to my talk page with their childish behavior anymore. He then went into my archives and edited the archived conversation here with more childish behavior which as you can see by the history he went into my archives to edit it and post to my talk again and then again here while I was writing this ANI stating "I am perfectly within my rights when editing your archive" which is not true as it clearly states at the top of the archives This is an archive of past discussions. Do not edit the contents of this page. If you wish to start a new discussion or revive an old one, please do so on the current talk page. I was told I should bring it to ANI as Dave clearly has issues with working with others, following policies, and does not get that his behavior is uncalled for and it might be time for an Admin to get involved. In case it is removed, as he has a history of such, user was notified of the ANI here Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 01:07, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- I have seen some of this behavior on wiki but warnings were already issued when I saw it. I fully support an extended or indefinite block for the user due to their inability to work with others (Competence is required) and their battleground mentality. The editing of WarMachineWildThing's archives is also completely inappropriate. -- Dane talk 01:13, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- He's constantly threatened to report others but has been warned enough to know that he's the one on thin ice. Just today he suggested I might be a sockpuppet. The WP:BATTLEGROUND has been nonstop since I first encountered him.[307] LM2000 (talk) 01:26, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- As expected User removed the ANI notice and replaced it here Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 01:28, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Edited my archive again here then reverted it here and is posting to my talk page again after being asked not to and after this ANI was filed. Dave clearly has no regards for policy and refuses to stop this behavior or acknowledge this ANI. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 01:36, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- You clearly haven't viewed my latest Wikipedia interactions seeing as I just agreed to let another user have his/her way in order to avoid an edit war. If the administrators are going to be unprofessional and gang up against me as well, then there's nothing I can really do about that. In my opinion, I haven't done anything wrong here and several users have adopted a mob mentality against me, which I find unfair. I am also surprised that I was not contacted by an administrator to get my side of the story. It is clear that I am working with users who are willing to work with me and not simply team up against me to get their way. Also, I am perfectly within my right to remove topics from my talk page in order to make my page tidier. WarMachineWildThing continues to remove my posts from his talk page so why am I being ridiculed for doing the same? Have a nice day. DaveA2424 (talk) 01:43, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'd like to state that I was unaware that editing archives was prohibited at first but then I saw the notice and removed my edition and reverted it to his talk page. That much I will apologise for because that was my mistake, but I refuse to be pushed around and teamed up on. If we can come to a peaceful solution or simply drop this then that's fine, but I'm perfectly happy to take this further seeing as I don't believe that I'm in the wrong here. DaveA2424 (talk) 01:50, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
Dave has now left a fake ANI notice on my talk page. As LM2000 has already posted to this ANI how you accused him of being a sock here. You were warned per policy about placing unsourced material by 2 users and you chose to make it personal and continue this behavior, you then came to my talk page with your childish behavior and were asked NOT to post to my talk again and you then continued and then started editing my archives which it clearly states at the top of them is a no no. Nothing you posted was EVER removed it was archived like every other conversation on my talk page. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 01:58, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you mean by a "fake ANI". Also, I have never called anyone a "sock". The only reason that you didn't want me to post on your talk page is because you didn't want me to have my say on the matter. Some of what I have posted on your talk page has not been archived under the WWE Hall of Fame section of your archive. If you would like to read what I said, I apologised for editing your archives because, at the time, I hadn't seen the notice and was unaware that editing archives wasn't allowed. I owned up to that being my mistake. You seem determined to drag this on further than it needs to be, which is fine by me because, in my opinion, you're way out of line here. I'm going to bed now. Goodnight, gentlemen. DaveA2424 (talk) 02:03, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- You left an ANI notice on my talk page that was fake, you don't leave ANI notices unless you filed one which you didn't. Again every post you made is in my archive and history nothing was removed it can all be seen, you were asked NOT to post 4 times to my talk page because of your childish behavior and battlefield mentality. You were asked to stop by LM2000 and NewsAndEventsGuy. You were warned per policy for adding unsourced material to an article via twinkle, which your history shows you have been warned about before, and you didn't like it so you then made it personal with me starting with calling me an idiot. You are clearly not here to work with others as you have continued with the same behavior even here on this ANI. You still refuse to acknowledge you have been wrong in this whole situation which shows you don't care. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 02:18, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- You're mistaken that you need to be the filing party to leave ANI notices. Anyone is free to leave ANI notices if they are appropriate and have not already been left. Since leaving them is a requirement, the filing party is normally the primary person who should leave them, but plenty of people miss the the big warnings or misunderstand them. In addition, some people are concerned over topic bans. In these cases, it's common for someone else to leave them. In addition, it isn't uncommon that a person will bring up the behaviour of another editor in a thread that has already been started. In these cases, if the editor is not already a participant in the thread, leaving them is required rather than just being acceptable. Since you were the person who started this discussion, there was no need to leave an ANI notice relating to it so it probably shouldn't have been done. However that doesn't make it a fake ANI notice. Such a concept doesn't make much sense. I guess you could say an ANI notice is fake if it refers to a non existant thread or if the person has not been mentioned in ANI at all, but that's different and it's still IMO a bit confusing to call them fake ANI notices. Nil Einne (talk) 15:51, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Typically a man of few words but figured I should add my two cents. I do give credit to DaveA2424 for apologizing regarding editing archived talk pages, however, I have not seen an apology for not adhering to WP:CIVILITY by, among other things, repeatedly calling WarMachineWildThing an 'idiot' without provocation. DaveA2424 blanking his own talk page during ongoing discussions while failing to archive them also seems odd to me. At the risk of giving credence to DaveA2424's belief that everyone is 'ganging up on him', I agree with and support statements made by WarMachineWildThing, Dane and LM2000. InFlamester20 (talk) 03:08, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- In case it wasn't already obvious, I don't sit on Wikipedia all day, every day. Therefore, there are things that I am new to and am unclear about. I still don't understand why you think that me blanking my talk page is some kind of attempt to cover my trails. It's all there in the history. I am fully aware of that. The only reason that I did it is so that I can easily view unread posts. If that's not something that's usually done then that's fine but the fact that you keep implying that I'm trying to hide something is puzzling to me. I also was unaware that archiving talk pages was even a possibility. The reason that I reacted in the way that I did is that I felt like my efforts to improve the WWE Hall of Fame page were not appreciated as the user simply removed everything that I had spent time on without a care in the world. He then continued to use language such as "warning" me, threatening to report me and so on. If you had been friendlier about this from the start, then none of this would have been an issue. Then, all of his little buddies joined in and started harassing me and backed me into a corner, which I thought was unfair and so I wasn't going to stand for it. Do I recognise that unsourced material isn't allowed? Yes, I do, but I wasn't clear on what exactly needed to be sourced and what didn't. I stopped trying to add Diamond Dallas Page to the 'To Be Inducted In 2017' section after I saw that users had deemed my editions to be unacceptable. Then, when adding Kurt Angle to that section last night, I conceded in a debate with others over which of his WWE Recognised Accolades should be included in order to avoid an edit war. That was because the user politely explained to me their point of view instead of getting a group of his friends together and harassing me like WarMachineWildThing did. At the end of the day, you can do what you like, but to suggest that I'm not willing to work with others and abide by the rules to the best of my ability is laughable. I look forward to seeing which of your friends turns up next to have his say at my expense. DaveA2424 (talk) 09:10, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- One thing you've got right is that you have the right to delete nearly anything from your own talk page. Just as other editors have the right to do so for their talk pages. ←Baseball BugsWhat's up, Doc?carrots→ 09:14, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

DaveA2424, WarMachineWildThing - I think you're both getting off-track regarding the original issue that started the dispute between you two (which are the content-related concerns at WWE Hall Of Fame). This back-and-fourth arguing over editing each others' talk pages, removing of content on each others' talk pages, editing each owns' talk pages, etc - are not only over things that are easy to resolve, but are just going to result in the actual issue never getting discussed and the dispute properly resolved.
First of all, it's completely appropriate for an editor to remove warnings, messages, content - whatever they want from their own user talk page. While DaveA2424's style of "marking his user talk page messages as read" isn't the usual way (nor is it generally the preferred way) to handle messages on his talk page, it's completely within his right to do if that's what he wants. While user talk page archives generally shouldn't be edited, it appears that DaveA2424 was unaware of this - can we please give him the benefit of the doubt and move on from this? :-)
Moving on to the root issue at hand... DaveA2424 - You state in your message to WarMachineWildThing that you were eventually going to add references and cite them with this content. If you're adding content to an article and have references that you're going to cite as well, why add the content without also adding the reference with the same edit? Doing so will help with the confusion and frustration that occurred here. I also see in the article's history that other editors have reverted changes you made, expressing different content-related issues and concerns. Have you started or discussed these issues on the article's talk page? While I see on the talk page history here that you've contributed there, I don't see much discussion over all issues at hand, nor does it appear that any of them have come to a consensus. Instead of blowing up at other editors as you've been doing, you need to start discussions or participate in the existing discussions on the article's talk page and make sure the discussions that involve the content you're attempting to add comes to a consensus before you add them back.
Lastly, DaveA2424 - I will note that your collaboration with other editors such as here, here, here, here, here, and here - are not acceptable ways to communicate with others and are in violation of Wikipedia's civility policy, as well as Wikipedia's policies on making personal attacks at others. I understand that you're frustrated and perhaps upset over this dispute, but calling other editors "idiots" (as one example) is not a positive way to resolve the issue at hand. I also don't understand what you mean when you refer to administrators acting unprofessionally, or other editors ganging up on you (as you said here and on other pages). I don't see where other editors and administrators are behaving unprofessionally, nor am I seeing where they're "ganging up" on you or hounding you. The only editor I've seen behave unprofessionally or engage in "hounding" is you. Even when another editor (NewsAndEventsGuy) stepped in to warn you about your civility and your collaborative behavior here, you then started to act uncivil towards him (diff). This also came after the initial response you made on NewsAndEventsGuy's user talk page (here), where you seemed to blame the incivility he warned you about on WarMachineWildThing's initial warnings. While the warnings that WarMachineWildThing left on your user talk page may explain your recent uncivil interactions, it certainly does not excuse them. DaveA2424 - from here on out, you are expected to collaborate with other editors in a civil manner and you are to stop making personal attacks towards other editors. If this behavior continues towards these editors or any other editors involving this issue or dispute, or during the course of this dispute, you will be blocked from editing for incivility.
In the end, everyone needs to shakes hands over the "talk page tit-for-tat" issue that was going on, move the content related discussion to the article's talk page, and come to a resolution peacefully. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 12:57, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- I notice that I am the only user that you have ridiculed here. Like I said, if it wasn't for other editors being hostile towards me and ganging up against me then I would not have responded in the way that I did. Your response to me is basically that I can sit here and take their abuse or I can get blocked. That doesn't seem fair to me. Any time that an editor has approached me in a respectful manner about an issue, I have responded in kind. I respect that you're trying to resolve the issue but I still can't help but feel like you're taking sides here. Everyone keeps berating me for things like removing content from my talk page and accidentally omitting parts of an edit before making a follow-up edit to rectify those omissions. Like I said, I'm new to this. I'm still learning, so I think that you could cut me some slack in that regard. If users are respectful towards me, then I will be respectful towards them. It's that simple. With that said, if it helps, I will make a conscious effort to be more patient with those who undo my edits and whatnot, whether they are correct in doing so or not.

- Oshwah I have stayed on the point of this ANI which was incivility and continued hounding about this, if Dave would have stopped like he was told by everyone involved we wouldn't be here.I never edited his talk page except to issue warnings.I NEVER went to his talk adding or removing anything . This was not a dispute between 2 users either other editors were involved with his addition of Unsourced content and warned him about it as well, yet he chose to single my talk out. I was never uncivil and told him several times to add the source when he edited which he couldn't because there were none.
- Dave no one disrespected you, you were warned per policy for placing unsourced material 3 times by 2 users and you decided to become uncivil to me which you were warned about by 2 other users on my talk and continued the behavior afterwards which lead us here. There was no mob as you have accused as this was the first time I ever had interaction with NewsandEventsguy and InFlamester20. Chris "WarMachineWildThing"Talk to me 15:24, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Taking what I say and simply arguing the opposite with little to no justification is getting us nowhere. You think that I wasn't disrespected? That's great, but I disagree. You think that there was no mob mentality? Again, that's great, but I disagree. I'm not sure why you're so determined to drag this out. I really don't have time for this childish, back-and-forth nonsense. DaveA2424 (talk) 16:43, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
My last post on the matter as I'm not wasting anymore time trying to explain this to someone who clearly doesn't get it and refuses to acknowledge their uncivil behavior which is and has been the POINT of this ANI from the beginning and continues to make false accusations. Not one user was uncivil or disrespectful to Dave at any point but he was to others IE: No one called him an Idiot, No one abused him as he has claimed in this ANI, There was no mob mentality and no one ganged up on anyone, No one blew up his talk page with uncivil behavior and being repeatedly told to stop, no user edited his talk page except to issue standard warnings per policies, you violate policies you get a warning IE: adding unsourced material. We've all gotten one at some point. User continues to be uncivil and has a battlefield mentality which each user involved in this ANI has agreed on, the matter was over as far as I was concerned until Dave made it a point to start it up again after almost 2 weeks, hence this ANI. An Admin can handle it from here however they see fit as clearly anything said here by users involved is mob mentality. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 17:41, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Again, all that you're doing is taking what I'm saying and stating the opposite, which results in the same childish, back-and-forth nonsense that gets us nowhere. You have been asked repeatedly to drop the talk page conversation in order to focus on issues that are more resolvable and yet you refuse to do so. You feel that I haven't been disrespected and that there hasn't been a mob mentality. I'm not sure what you didn't understand about this when I said it the first time, but I disagree. You can continue to drag this on all you want but we're simply going around in circles here. You're ridiculing me for bringing something up after two weeks but, again, I don't spend hours of every day on Wikipedia like you do so I didn't see you and your friends harassment until two weeks later and I was, quite frankly, appalled to see the kind of mob mentality that I'd expect to see from schoolchildren. DaveA2424 (talk) 22:18, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- wow, kudos Oshwah for careful review and analysis.
I suggest adding "disruption" to the list of Dave's issues and blocking for one week in hope he'll take that time to read the various policies we have been citing. I say 'disruption' because one of the signs of disruption is not answering questions and Dave has been asked for DIFFS showing existence of ganging up on him, disrespecting him, etc. Nadda nope nothing. Instead he continues to tit for tat with the same vaguely cast aspersions. Our WP:Blocking policy states that blocks are only to PREVENT future problems. If a weeks time out to review our policies was ever needed its here. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 02:16, 18 January 2017 (UTC)LATER (and after Admin Oshwah posted his threaded reply to what I now strike out).... Apologies to DaveA2424 (talk·contribs)... I should have looked at the time of your mid thread comment asking how to post diffs. I now see that was your last post in the thread. Since two earlier posts of yours appear below that remark I assumed they had been made after you were asked for DIFFS. The general guideline is new remarks go below and I lost track. It was my misreading of the chronology that led me to believe there was a continuing problem. My bad, and I'm sorry Dave. A lot of good advice has been made available to all editors in this thread. Those interested in improving the original article can get back to effective work if they act on all this feedback. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 14:16, 18 January 2017 (UTC)- NewsAndEventsGuy - Thank you for the kudos and for the input. While the evidence shows clear incivility from DaveA2424, as well as a history with being warned for adding unferenced and poorly referenced content to articles, blocking him at this point would not be a preventative measure and would be inappropriate per Wikipedia's blocking policy. So long as the incivility and personal attacks stop, the content dispute/discussion is moved to the article's talk page and remains peaceful and content-related, and no edit warring or other disruption starts to come about, I see no reason to consider any blocks at all. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 03:26, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Which, for the record, it would be reeeeaaallly really nice to not have to use that damn button :-). I hate having to block editors over civility and content-related disruption... especially in situations like this - where two or more editors, who obviously seem passionate about expanding the project and making it better, clash with one another as a result and become frustrated and angry at one another. I try to give 110% into trying to diffuse the situation and help guide those in dispute towards the right direction. Having to resort to blocking, to me, means I've failed at my job... which is to set an example, be the neutral party, show leadership, and diffuse heated situations and help them work things out. If doing so becomes needed as the only option to prevent disruption and allow positive collaboration and consensus-building to resume, I won't hesitate to do so and I won't stray an inch... but it doesn't mean I like doing so... I'd really much rather help them work things out than to have to go that route. :-( ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 03:42, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

UNSC Luke has been warned many times to "stop messing around." He seems to enjoy gaslighting people, doing things that should obviously not be done, and then feigning ignorance. When it started out with his RFA, most AGF as they are supposed to, believing it to be merely a newer user that was eager. After this, and several other questionable actions at RFA, he was given a short ban (see here), and appealed it for a 1 year topic ban from RFA, asking for "one more shot" (see here). At this point too, most AGF, thinking that it was just a newer user who made a mistake. However he later admitted that the RFA was a prank. (see here), and that he wished to "game the system to see people's responses. (See here. The pranks (or serious incompetence) became more blatant, he soon after moved his talk page to a name he wished to have. (See here) he then put a joke about how you could go to his talk page from his userpage, but not the other way around. (See here). The move was quickly reverted by Floquenbeam, who, echoing the words of many other admins, told him to "stop f-ing around", (see here) he again claimed ignorance, claiming that he had no idea what he had done wrong. (See here). He later contradicted himself, saying he had tried to move the userpage, but wasn't able to. (See here.) Floquenbeam quickly pointed out that he should have clearly seen that he couldn't move it, as per the bright red letters on the top. (see here.) Floquenbeam issued him a last warning (one of the many he has been given). It again became more blatant he was trolling when he posted the entire content of the bee movie into his talk page (revision deleted per copyvio guidelines). He was swiftly warned (see here.) He again feigned total ignorance, claiming he didn't know what they were talking about (see here.) And later stating that he didn't know the entire script of a movie would be copyrighted. (See here.) I questioned if he happened to be under the influence of a mind altering substance (see here, as that seemed to be the only possible way to AGF, given the circumstances. He denied that he was under any such influence. (See here.) It has rapidly become clear that Luke is either playing long term pranks, doing stupid things and then feigning innocence for his own amusement, or is guilty of serial incompetence.

Discussion (UNSC Luke 1021)
- I was just about to write something over on that talk page, but I'll write it here instead : Iazyges, asking if somebody is on drugs sounds like a variant of "have you stopped beating your wife" and was not a particularly nice question to ask. However, Luke is just being far too disruptive and I believe WP:COMPETENCE is the root cause of it. I think for now we should settle for a stiff warning that any more shenanigans will be met with an indefinite block. That should do the trick. Ritchie333(talk)(cont) 15:42, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- I understand how it can be seen negatively, I asked it because I saw it as the only reasonable way that he could not know what he did wrong. Another reason why I brought it here is that he has been given several last warnings, only to cross the line again and be given another. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 15:46, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- You can add to the pile him leaving a message on The Rambling Man 's talk page to "let him know what's been going on" TRM's own talk page, and then continuing to reply even after the obvious is pointed out to him. Diffs are on Luke's talk page; I'll add them here when I'm in a better position to do so. –Grondemar 15:53, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

- He's a young editor messing around, but also still actually trying to build up the encyclopedia in my mind. Give him a very strongly worded final warning that Wikipedia is not an internet forum to mess around on, and if something happens later, he can be blocked for either a definite or indefinite period of time. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:13, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- The problem with that is that he has been given a very strongly worded warning by a near-dozen admins and a few other users, and had persisted. He has also already been blocked. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 16:16, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- For the record (and disclosure) the question which led to Luke's 8-day block was posted on my RFA. I didn't find the question particularly disruptive but I declined to comment on what happened afterwards while my RFA was open for reasons that should be obvious, but I was awfully disappointed (then and still) that it led to Dennis Brown quitting the project. Luke's variety of !innocent trolling and !gentle pushing of the community's tolerance is going to continue to cause the sort of problems that require long discussions and tedious cleanup, and he's already been warned by several users that Wikipedia is a serious endeavour, not a social experiment. I propose a one month block to prevent further disruption of this sort. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 16:21, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

- I believe we're dealing with an editor of some mixed interest here; that is sort of here sort of not here.

- User:UNSC Luke 1021 I will be brutally honest with you. I, and probably many others, don't believe you. I was there when you asked for a second chance after getting banned, you then got 3 more warnings (Moving talk page, harassment, and copyvio). It would seem to me that you will never actually follow through. You had mentorship, patient zero was more than patient with you, offering advice and assuming good faith to the point I honestly worried about him (believe he is male, could be wrong). You have driven away a very valued editor with your empty promises. For these reasons I am doubtful that any significant number of people believe you want to change.

I believe somewhere on the site (as noted above) he did state now he was banned from RFA he was gonna disrupt elsewhere instead which at the moment he's staying true to his word on,Enough of the communities time has been wasted on them and wasting more (by mentoring, last warnings, temp blocks etc) will be a waste of time. –Davey2010Talk 16:42, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Davey2010: please could you provide a diff where Luke "did state now he was banned from RFA he was gonna disrupt elsewhere". If such a diff is not available, you should strike the claim, as accusations without evidence are not helpful, especially in this forum. A person making a specific statement that they are intentionally going to disrupt the encyclopedia (as opposed to just showing obvious competence issues and repeated silliness) is a very serious claim, in fact it's one of the most serious claims that can be made as regards to an editor's intentions towards the project. MPS1992 (talk) 19:09, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Seeing that this is going the way of some sort of sanction, and that a definite final warning is looking unlikely, I believe a
one month blockwould be more appropriate. I struggle to understand how the editor believes their actions are correct, and every little incident makes WP:CIR more and more applicable but I hope that a "line in the sand" can be drawn.

- I don't normally like supporting any proposal to block editors who show any sign of good-faith editing, however whilst I can't quite bring myself to support an indef block, I do think (bearing in mind the claimed age of the user appears to be relatively young) perhaps that a one-month block combined with a supportive message on their Talk explaining the rationale, and what not to do once unblocked, will get the message across without alienating Luke from the project completely, which would be a shame (albeit I'd reluctantly support an indef block if there's further disruption after this one). Mike1901 (talk) 16:59, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
Support one month block per Samtar. I was open to this above, but might as well formalize it. I am still very much opposed to an indef block or site ban at this time. If a one month block happens and they continue being disruptive after that, indef is the way to go, but I don't think it is now. TonyBallioni (talk) 17:01, 19 January 2017 (UTC)- Support site ban okay, yeah, all but saying that he would sock if blocked makes me feel like a fool for trying to assume good faith here.

- I hate to say this, but support site ban, per "AGF is not a suicide pact". At least I bleeping tried. Now he's testing everyone. I'm all up for multiple chances, and I know he's young - but his behaviour is getting to the point where he can't be helped or guided down a different path. I tried to get him into AV work, and now I feel as if I've completely wasted my time. God, I assumed good faith to the point where I'm sure most people thought I was completely insane to do so.

- Floq's proposal looks good, but I don't like the suggestion of only blocking him for two weeks. He's already been blocked for WP:DE, and he tested Dennis' patience to the point where he quit. Something more serious needs to be done. I get the comments about his age - he claims to be a high-schooler, which suggests to me that he is between one and three years younger than me - but even us young editors can be mature and act like adults, on a website designed mainly for them. He's had too many chances; he we can always let him apply "parole" that is the Standard Offer, in six months' time, if need be. TLDR version: I still stand by my comments in which I said I would support a site ban. Patient Zerotalk 09:56, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- As I read the post where the user quite he seemed more exasperated at the leniency being shown towards UNSC. As much as (if not more so) the the users actions. Yes it was this case that drove him away, but it was the actions of over protective admins (and UNSC is not alone it getting this kind of treatment) that was the issue.

Support six-month block. I don't think, based on the previous 8 day block related to RFA, that one month is long enough to send the right message. I think an indefinite block or site ban is too harsh despite everything. If the consensus is to ban Luke, I'd like there to be a provision where he can appeal in six months. Maybe after another school semester Luke will be ready to return with a little more maturity. If not, we can always ban him then.–Grondemar 17:21, 19 January 2017 (UTC)- Support indef. Responding to this thread by threatening sockpuppetry if blocked? Enough time has been wasted on Luke's trolling. Goodbye. –Grondemar 18:36, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Confirming that I still support an indefinite block despite the withdrawal of the socking threat. I think a formal site ban—requiring community consensus to revoke—is overkill, although I can see the rationale. There is merit in some of Floquenbeam's suggestions or the idea of mentorship, although I think these should come after a minimum of six months away from the project, and only as conditional to an administrator lifting the indefinite block. –Grondemar 23:30, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

- Support indef on the understanding that if he successfully appeals, any goofing around on his return will lead to a permanent community ban. I was the one who mare the
topic-banning him from one area will just mean he goes and disrupts something else
comment referenced above, and this is exactly what has come to pass. (You can add his ramblings at WP:ITN/C to the list as well.) If he actually has something useful to bring, it's more than outweighed by now both cleaning up the messes he makes, and calming down frayed tempers owing to his trolling.

- Support indef. Indefinite does not mean infinite; it's actually more open to appeal than a timed block, if and when he decides to participate positively. Trolling RfA is not a good sign; he's had several final warnings and one block; he even exhausted Dennis Brown's patience. Enough is enough, but I can't support a ban.

- Site ban I've had questions about this editor for a while, and it appears that they simply don't have the mindset, or the maturity to work collaboratively. This comment here: "I like the site and don't want to fall into the horrible world of sockpuppetry and meatpuppetry just to continue editing." clinches it for me.

Since then their talk page has been on my watchlist and I have seen them 'screw around' and apologize time after time. This editor either is trolling or, in my opinion, rather young and simply not mature enough to realize the disruption their inappropriate behavior is causing. Because of this I would be willing to see them have a 1 year time limited ban in case they just need some time to mature. This is contingent on them retracting the implication they made that they would SOCK if banned or blocked. I am firmly opposed to another "final warning" - they have had more than enough of those.

- 3 month block. The silliness and over-excited testing of boundaries has got out of hand, and is disrupting other editors' work. A site ban or indefinite block seems disproportionate; as thoughtfully noted by another editor above, the editor clearly does have constructive contributions to make, and intention to help, just is not managing it well at the moment. Willingness to undergo mentoring is also a positive sign, and I am sure something could be arranged after a 3 month break to take on board that this is a serious project not a playground. A disproportionate remedy here as a sort of "revenge" for the decisions of another user after an incident where Luke was involved, is -- quite obviously -- not appropriate. MPS1992 (talk) 19:17, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- He has already had mentorship, as mentioned above several admins and experienced users went out of their way to help him. I'm confused as to your last bit, what decision and user are you referring to? IazygesConsermonorOpus meum 19:21, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, how long was the mentorship allowed to proceed before expecting results? From his talk page I can see a couple of mentions of emails being sent that he hadn't seen yet because he was at school, is that what you had in mind? The user I had in mind was Dennis Brown, mentioned specifically by two of the users proposing sanctions above, and perhaps in the minds of many of the others. Although I too have great admiration for Dennis' work, I really don't think that Dennis is the sort of person who would be made happier with the project just because some other user got banned. MPS1992 (talk) 19:55, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Well: the socking threat- such as it was- has been revoked; with quite a mature comment. The cynics will perhaps point to more gaslighting. But- this seems a shame. After all,
secondninth chances are at home here here if nowhere else. I'm just thinking of [will remain unnamed] who have pushed the envelope far deeper than this, and yet we still rejoice in their presence (or, at least, have done for longer!). I'm sure there is potential. Although of course finding it- is another page. I think I'd urge discretion in any award of punishment here. But. O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 19:29, 19 January 2017 (UTC) - Support site ban until they grow up and show some maturity. Constantly final warning them without consequence is like telling your naughty child "you better behave or else" without the "or else" ever happening. Blackmane (talk) 19:29, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- 6 month block This is a cryin' shame, because Luke can be a very productive editor. Unfortunately Luke has exhausted all patience, and it is glaringly obvious that "final warning" after final warning doesn't work. I don't support a longer block because of Luke's age, and this is sufficient time to be preventive in the long-term as 6 months is a lot longer at his age than it is at mine. Upon first violation of the Luke's block, this should be turned into an immediate site-ban. If Luke completes the "time-out" without issue, his return should be on probation in that that any instance of "social experimentation" within 1-year of his return should also result in a site-ban. This is not intended to be punitive, it is intended to clearly demonstrate to Luke that his actions have resulted in him being a net-negative, and that we want him here, but only as a productive, trustworthy participant. He can demonstrate his trustworthyness by leaving the project in peace for 6 months. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 19:55, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support indef or site ban. People have given him enough benefit of the doubt, in fact far more than most receive and by better editors than most receive. There's a deliberate sense of mischief here, especially as he went pretty quickly for the areas of Wikipedia that are very obviously not good places for a newbie to start out, like SPI and RfA. Many aren't even aware that they exist. To be very honest, this gives me the impression that this isn't their first time on here and that they likely made edits under another account prior to this or at the very least, under an IP. The amount of new accounts that go to RfA immediately are very few and far between and the ones that do typically write up something that's maybe a sentence or two long, even with other RfAs to draw from. To see someone at SPI is far less common, enough to where I can't think of any cases where a new user got involved with SPI and wasn't an obvious sockpuppet. While the RfA from November has been deleted, the answers to his questions give off a better understanding of policy than most newbie editors have - and this was after he really began editing in September 2016. The bottom line of this is that I just can't believe their claims that they didn't know any better because their actions show that they should know better and they just don't care. They've said and done several things that show that they are at least passing aware of policy, as remarks about creating a sock or meatpuppet shows that he's looked at the policy page enough to know what this is... and yet still made the comment. His familiarity with other parts of Wikipedia makes it even harder to believe that he wouldn't already know that it's a bad idea to cut/paste an entire film script to anywhere on Wikipedia, especially as there's no actual need for this material anywhere and falls hard into WP:NOT territory.
- He's been given so much benefit of the doubt that I honestly have to question whether or not he'd mature enough in a year to give him the WP:SO, given that he's had people try to work with him and he just turns around and breaks more rules. He's young, but a high school aged person is old enough to know better than to keep making mistakes like this. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 20:03, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Indef block/site ban, which can be appealed in 12 months. I hate to be this hard, but I've come across young people like this multiple times. When warned/blocked/etc, they repeatedly promise to behave, but keep on breaking their promises - he's simply saying what he thinks will get him out of his immediate trouble every time. A year from now, we might see sufficiently improved maturity, though I have my doubts - but I think we need to offer something. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 20:28, 19 January 2017 (UTC)- I meant to add that I think Tokyogirl79 sums it up very well. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 20:33, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'm temporarily withdrawing my recommendation until I have a think through Floquenbeam's suggestion, below. I'd like to see some response from Luke to it too. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 23:53, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose to any "site ban" or "indef block" however Support block of up to 3 months - We have veteran editors who have given us far more trouble than Luke has and who have received far lesser penalties (in some cases none whatsoever). They will remain nameless, though, much like FIM has done above. I can understand the push for a block, even a longer block of up to 6 months. But I don't understand the cavalier attitude displayed about handing down a site ban to an editor who has in fact improved the encyclopaedia with the assistance of others - Battle of Raseiniai and Astroneer. For me; RfA is not the encyclopaedia, Wikipedia space is not the encyclopaedia, your user and user talk pages are not the encyclopaedia, etc, etc. The encyclopaedia is in my opinion, "article space" only. The other areas are necessary, but, they do not contribute in and of themselves to the encyclopaedia. The single most damning issue I've seen above is a single, albeit significant, copyright violation on UNSC's user page. Many of the above say that AGF is not a suicide pact, but, I don't need to AGF here at all. There's nothing to AGF about. Luke has caused issues that have wasted community time and resources and should be sanctioned. 3 months is more than enough. How nice a block log would this be? 8 day block reversed after less than 48 hours followed by an indefinite block or better yet community ban with WP:SO as the only chance of parole. But I cannot support a short block -> community ban escalation based on the evidence presented above. Mr rnddude (talk) 20:31, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment; I support Floquenbeam's proposal below and think this would make a good set of boundaries to keep Luke in check. That said, at least a 1 month block is in order for all of the foolishness and mucking about. Mr rnddude (talk) 05:55, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Without prejudice to the merits of an indef ban based on repeated disruptive behavior, I am bothered by the vast majority of rationales for an indef block/site ban being based on the contributor's age. Punishing an editor based on assumptions of age and maturity is a bad look to younger contributors. We're not parents.--WaltCip (talk) 20:37, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- I don't think anyone is actually supporting a sanction because of his age, but because of his behaviour - and noting that his age is a factor in that behaviour. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 21:49, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support indef or site ban per Tokyogirl's excellent disquisition. Beyond My Ken (talk) 20:51, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support indefinite site ban as first choice. In order of preference after that, I also support an indefinite block or a lengthy block. This has gone far beyond mentorship or a cool-down period. This is an editor who was so disruptive at RfA that we had to ban them from the area. He's then decided to disrupt other aspects of the project, most recently by posting obviously copyrighted material to his user page in full. Even if that weren't a legal issue, why would he post the full script of the Bee Movie to a userspace? WP:NOTWEBHOST, obviously. He is clearly not here to contribute, and the community is sick of dealing with this area by area. He has posted the following quote on his user page, "Born too late to explore the Earth, born too early to explore the stars, born just in time to explore dank memes...". If that doesn't make clear that he's a troll, I don't know what will. He can go post dank memes elsewhere. The threat of the sockpuppetry would be the final nail in the coffin if not for the coffin being absolutely covered in nails already. ~ Rob13Talk 21:44, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

- OK, as one of several who gave final warnings, I'll comment here:
- I'm going to mention several times below that I'm pretty sure he's young. That's not to be dismissive or mean, it's just an explanation for behavior that would otherwise be attributable to darker motives.
- Adding the Bee Movie script is not out-of-left-field crazy; according to my own kids, it's apparently a thing kids do (Google "Bee Movie memes". And then weep about our future). I can imagine a kid doing this, thinking it's funny, without thinking too much about copyright, when he sees others doing it. So this is probably not evidence of outright trolling. It's just evidence, after many, many previous actions, of poor judgement.
- Talk of a true site ban seems like a severe over-reaction. Reasonable if he had no redeeming traits, but I don't think that's the case. There's a decent chance of a salvage operation here.
- Talk of giving yet another final warning is a severe under-reaction. I gave a pretty clear one, and it wasn't understood.
- I suggest a 2 week block. To firmly grasp the attention. And no unblocks after a few days if there's a "you've firmly grasped my attention" unblock request. A hard 2 weeks. Long enough to be painful, short enough to not encourage bad ideas.
- Followed by a 3 month ban on non-article related edits. So the following would be OK: articles, talk pages, Wikiproject pages about articles (like, for example, WP:MILHIST and WP:TANKS, his own talk page. The following would not be OK: ANI, RFA (well, already done), XFD, Main page discussions, Wikiproject pages where he gets involved in arguments, etc.
- While it seems mean-spirited, I suggest a ban on editing his userpage too. My hope would be to instill good habits, so that when the 3 month ban is over, there's no desire to go back to his old ways. If he really sticks to this, he'll have a decent reputation as a content builder at the end of the 3 months. Reputation is important, I would hope he wouldn't want to risk it doing something stupid on his user page at the beginning of month 4.
- If he can find a mentor, great. Not sure that should be required, but it should be encouraged.
- Kids mature quickly, so this isn't completely Polyanna-ish. I really have seen young users I was a hair's breath away from blocking indef change their ways once it became clear that fun time was over. Not all of them, not even most of them, but enough to know that there's a reasonable chance of success.
- If problems resume after 3 months, or if problems begin on the pages they're allowed to edit during the 3 months, then cut bait.
- --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:26, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- Floquenbeam, I don't think any attention should be paid to his age. If an editor can't get with the program for whatever reason, despite endless mentoring and final warnings, then that's it. I don't know of a kinder way to put this, but this isn't a daycare. If it would be unacceptable for you to behave in this manner and waste everyone's time, then it's unacceptable for Luke. And if you want to pay attention to his age, then two weeks or 3 months or even 6 months is certainly not enough time to grow up. In a few years, if he matures, then he can always appeal. Ramaksoud2000(Talk to me) 05:33, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, that was my feeling as well, that 3, 6 or 12 months were really relatively short times for the basic editing philosophy of this person to change, so it was much better to go indef and to allow them to make a showing of any change in whatever time period it occurs in. Plenty of WP:ROPE has been given, I think. If it hadn't, I would be more amenable to Flo's suggestion. Beyond My Ken (talk) 12:44, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

- @Floquenbeam:, I like this idea. I'd be perfectly fine with being banned from non-article and possibly talk pages for said articles, because that's the source of the problem. I'd also be ok with receiving a two to four week ban if it solves problems. UNSC Luke 1021 (talk) 12:48, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Proposal I'm willing to offer mentoring. It'll be our way or the highway, as they say. Much more straitened than usual. In the knowledge that all these AGF privileges have just been used up. Any movement from the path- no further A N I possible; plenty of admins have already spoken their minds. They'll be queuing up to block indef if it goes mushroom shaped. Community? O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 22:32, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi: what form would this mentoring take? As near as I can see 'don't do stupid shit' is a tough mentoring goal. I like the idea by Floquenbeam above. Would that be something you would consider integrating into your plan? I think the hump that must be overcome is that Luke does not seem to have developed the maturity to know what it means to keep one's word, at least not once the threat of impending sanction is removed.
I would be willing to support some sort of remediation/mentoring program since I think he can grow into a net positive but it would be well defined and, I firmly believe, it should follow a minimum of a one month block. He has been repeatedly threatened with sanctions and so far the only thing he has learned is that he can avoid them by apologizing and then goes on to do something inappropriate a week or so later.

- @Jbhunley: Yes, very much along Floquenbeam's suggestion. The difference between this and the previous mentoring is that this is would be from within, as it were, the last chance saloon, as we say. And that would be made clear: the slightest fuck-up, and there's no drawn-out AN/I cases, no lengthy discussions, and no appeals. Anyone queuing up here to report / block them will have them spinning out the door so fast their feet won't touch. This is all notwithstanding, and without prejudice to, any other decision the community might make here; but if this is taken up, I would want a punishment already signed and sealed, so there is absolutely no doubt as to the consequences of non-improvement.

- @Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi: If something like that can be worked out with UNSC Luke 1021 I will support it although, based on the number of editors who are exhausted with their behavior, I think it is unlikely they will escape an indef block. Possibly they could be encouraged to include the mentoring plan, if you would still be willing to take it on, as part of an appeal in a couple of months. If they do so and I do not notice it please ping me and I will chime in there. JbhTalk 21:40, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

- To those of you who object to a indef/site ban due to his contributions, a simple break down: 50% are to user talk, talk, and wikipedia talk, 5% are to user, 22% is to wikipedia. Only 23% is to mainspace. I will comment that that is exceptionally low for someone who is here to build an encyclopedia. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 23:33, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- 3 month block, followed by the same restrictions in Floquenbeam's proposal (but with longer timeframes). My gut reaction is indef and be done with it, but I'm moved by the desire to assume yet more good faith - or perhaps it's give an even longer quantity of rope. I'm solidly un-moved by the fact that he redacted his socking threats, his MO seems to be do or say something outlandish, and when called on it either feign ignorance or say that it was a joke. That reminds me of someone else, and not in a good way (should there be a good way for that association to be made). Based on the socking comments, I think that Floquenbeam's timeline is too lenient, and a lengthier block will possibly provide evidence as to if he really meant that he would sock.

- Voluntary three month site ban and subsequent mentoring.UNSC Luke 1021.This is a kind of tipping point for you. Frankly at this point community trust regarding you is hemorrhaging away. Considering your potential future value to the project (I have seen your good work on MILHIST) this is a potential net loss to the project. However your behaviour has been highly damaging to your reputation, as is shown in numerous comments above. I would suggest that a voluntary break from WP, returning at an agreed time to take up a Last chance saloon mentoring agreement, as offered by O Fortuna! would do much to restore long-term faith in you by the community. It also would show self discipline. If you are found to be socking in that period, a permanent site ban can only follow. Pull yourself together Luke, basically. I think you are WP:HERE, but at this stage you must take urgent steps. Only you can agree to this, with community agreement. Irondome (talk) 00:05, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

- Long-ish, but not indef, block - Not sure whether 1 or 3 or 6 or 12 months is the ideal, but the odds are that such a slap in the face will be enough. No matter the age, emotional maturity is clearly lacking; I think the previous warnings were dismissed as "individuals that don't like me"; a block longer than a month, imposed by community consensus, cannot be ignored similarly. (Notice that the only previous block was 8 days, and replaced by a topic ban) Of course, when/if they return, the indef will be flying circles around their head anyways, so the time lost if the worse-case scenario will be negligible.

Can we have a straw poll please on the following: There is generally shared opinion that this is a young user who, given time, may grow out of their irrational behaviour. There is unanimous consensus that UNSC Luke 1021 is seriously disruptive and must be stopped. There are varying suggestions of severity for recommended preventative measures and also offers of mentoring. Site ban means an indef block anyway while there are fewer calls for the ban than the block. Taking the arguments for milder measures into consideration, I'm suggesting:

- In their latest edit, they did source the content about the "international campaign" to http://www.sdzlp.si/mednarodni-poziv/, but it looks an awfully lot more like a post on their official website, and using Wikipedia as a means of promotion, than it does an "international campaign".

Seeking additional eyes / input
During my page patrols I came across PianoKing, he's a fairly new user, attempting to create this article . I looked at it and saw that he had no sources, and rather than have it tagged for deletion, I moved it into draft space to give him time to work on it. I also left him a note explaining what happened and why it happened and told him what he would need to do in order for this article to be kept.
To his credit he appears to have added in sources. However, they were not linked nor cited, so I added to my original note, different paragraph, explaining in detail what he would need to do in order for his submission to be ready. He appeared to add in one more source, at the end and then move the article back out of draft space with an edit summary stating the sources were "perfect".
I moved the article back to draft space and left him a seperate note explaining that his submission still isn't ready and to remind him that I 'd explained in detail what needed to be there, and what it should look like, and how to code it.
I'm requesting more eyes at this article and on the user. Not just because of this, but because of a second incident with this article. After I'd moved the article and tagged it as unreferenced, a brand new user went right to this draft article and removed the tag. That's their sole edit so far. While it would be a stretch to say this was a sock, I'm beginning to wonder. At any rate, AGF assumed, if this is a new user it would be better if additional eyes were on this draft / article. Thanks ! KoshVorlon} 13:53, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
- The best way to deal with an article that seems unready for main space is to bring it to articles for deletion. It may seem severe to nominate it for deletion, but this is really the only noticeboard we have to resolve such issues. Unilaterally moving an article to draft space isn't a good idea in my opinion. I think it's better to gain consensus at AfD. With regard to the second account, it does look suspicious, but I'm inclined to wait and see what happens instead of taking immediate action.

Dispute with Lx 121 on Talk:Atrocities in the Congo Free State
Starting in mid-December, Lx 121 has raised a number of complaints on the talk page of Atrocities in the Congo Free State (a Good Article since September 2016). Initially, he/she claimed that the nationality of cited historians should be highlighted in the article but has widened the dispute to a dozen aspects of the article which he/she considers "bullshit". When some of the demonstrably false claims made are disproved (the absence of Congolese historians) he/she merely changes his/her argument. At the start of the dispute, he/she began to accuse me of "pushing an agenda" attempting "to minimize negative coverage of the belgian colonisers". On 28 December, he/she wrote:
i'm [sic] getting just a little bit TIRED of piron REPEATEDLY misrepresenting & ignoring points raised in this discussion.
& @ this point the only agf-reason left to explain the user's doing so is to assume that the user is having some problem with the reading & comprehension of the text? or maybe i [sic] can be "charitable" & pretend that biron [sic] was just reading too quickly? but that really is the last thread of agf here.
otherwise, it appears to be a deliberate tactic by the user, to obfuscate the matters being discussed.
When other users became involved in the discussion at my request, Lx ignored their comments. In his most recent comment (14 Jan), Lx wrote: "if this article was about nazi atrocities in ww2, instead of belgian colonies in the congo, you would be shut down as a holocaust denier/minimizer by now", effectively accusing me of being a negationist as a result of being personally "pro-Belgian". Instead of seeking consensus or responding to the other comments by other users, Lx writes "your sheer, impenetrable, {wikt intransigence} [sic] has exhausted any reasonable agf here." Lx's comments are often quite incoherent streams of consciousness and seem to be becoming increasingly so as the discussion progresses. They are also becoming increasingly belligerent. Lx apparently has a history of similar confrontations in other topics, most recently in December. I had hoped that more users would comment in the discussion but, unfortunately, WikiProject Democratic Republic of the Congo has few active users and so the discussion has become increasingly confrontational. I have been editing on Wikipedia for several years and I have never seen personal attacks of this genre before. —Brigade Piron (talk) 11:13, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- I really have a hard time understanding
- how a user can edit Wikipedia for ten years
- and still somehow think it's appropriate
- to separate nearly every clause in a comment
- by a paragraph break
- at times making a comment a page or more long
- and rendering them barely readable. TimothyJosephWood 13:20, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Ugh. That's the worst I've seen since Enkyo2 (talk · contribs) (don't ask what reminded me of him). If Lx 121 doesn't explain himself and, more importantly, cut it out, he should be blocked (unless it can be demonstrated that this is localized to one article, topic are or dispute with one user, but that really seems unlikely). Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 07:30, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
ok clarification please? are we criticizing me for my style of writing comments? or for my actions?
as regards my actions: i have VERY carefully avoided any remarks about this editeor as a person.
i don't care about this editor "as a person"; what i care about is the quality of the work.
& to put it very bluntly, after a very long, & fruitless "agf" on its talk page, this editor has written an apologist piece of shit.
the author has gone out of his way to minimise, to downplay, to reduce casualty estimates, to euphemise, & to excuse & deny belgian responsibility for any of the actions.
the author has cherrypicked their sources, & been highly selective in the material to use, even from thse sources; & ALL of it has been in the direction of downplaying the severity, & belgian/european colonial responsibility.
AND the author has reverted multiple other editors who attempted to revise the text.
over the course of several weeks of interaction this editor has been COMPLETELY INTRANSIGENT & absolutely 'impenetrable to any alterations to their text.
i'm going to rfc it, & aside from continuing to add sources, i'm walking away.
if anybody wants to suggest we delete the article, or merge it back into the main (since, in its present form, it has VERY little of substance to add to the subject) count me as a "yes" vote.
if anybody wants to nominate this piece of crap for "featured" (or for "promotion"); count me as "roflmao"
Lx 121 (talk) 04:31, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- ALSO: the "complaining" user has misrepresented my position on the article.
- from the start i stated that i found the article was nnpov. the lack of congolese sources was one of my objections; it was not the only one. i also objected, from the start, to this user's actions in reverting every change made to the tone of the text, by any editor, on the flimsiest rationales.
- since the user posted this here, they have again reverted. this time the "objectionable material" was a period photograph of mutilated congolese children. which, contrary to the claims made by the user, was not part of the "disputed" content, & should have been a non-controvertial change & improvement, IF we assume this user is "acting in good faith". dif link pending Lx 121 (talk) 04:41, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- & here we go, this is the "good faith" edit reverting the lede photo from period documentation of mutilated congolese children, to belgian king leo; & completely removing the historical image from the article.
- final point -- in response to the original editor's claims, i have not "ignored" other editor's comments. i have, in fact, responded to each of them. & i have spent a very long time responding to piron, & a VERY large amount of patience & "agf" on this.
- the editor was ALREADY behaving intransigently when i arrived on the article, weeks ago, & has continued to do so.
- the editor has repeatedly mis-represented or "cherrypicked" from my stated positions in the dispute, & continues to do so.
- tl;dr - i am all out of "agf" for this person; at least as far as their action on this particular article go.

- BTW -- i don't know what peculiar device, or browser you are using to view this; but i'm using firefox with absolutely "plain vanillia" 100% html-compliance.
- & on my screen, spacing & selective use of bold & capitals looks a hell of a lot more readable, than "blocks o' text".
- so is this really a matter of legibility? or is this about "preferences" of style & "wp:i don't like this"? setting aside, for a moment, the point that the MOS is written for the article-space & we are deep into editor-land here. Lx 121 (talk) 08:08, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- It's a matter of legibility as well as a general battleground approach to collaboration, combined with decidedly less than civil interactions. If you fail to see the problem in your above response that only strengthens my view. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 16:01, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- No, it's simple legibility. It makes your comments very hard to read, especially as they're in a ranting style to begin with. Please make your comments in normal paragraphs, without the excessive use of capitals, bold and italics, and please try to use capitalisation. It's a simple competence issue. Coupled with stuff like "this editor has written an apologist piece of shit" and "if anybody wants to nominate this piece of crap.." makes me think that you are not particularly interested in collaborative editing, which generally makes me consider a block. Black Kite (talk) 19:26, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Unfortunately I think Lx's attitude to the repeated (and polite) requests of several users to change the layout of comments rather symbolises his/her wider attitude towards collaboration on Wikipedia. The same day that Lx left his/her last comment on this page, he/she opened up a Request for Comment discussion on the article which, to me, looks like blatant FORUMSHOPPING. The comments on this review repeat the same attack on me as well as this comment: "i'm [sic] done; i [sic] am out of time, out of patience, & out of "agf" for this person. the article is crap, & i [sic] would vote to delete it, "merge" it back into the main c.f.s. article anytime. it [sic] adds nothing to the coverage already there."
- I'm afraid I think this is just another example of how Lx is not listening to the comments on this discussion and on the article's talk page. —Brigade Piron (talk) 20:55, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
As one of the participants in the original discussion, I'm afraid I must second Brigade Piron's opinion. Lx hasn't been nearly as belligerent with me as they have been with Piron, but they have nevertheless not responded positively or courteously to my comments. Their behavoir is not indicitive of a desire to collaborate, as I see it. I made suggestions on 29 December to which Lx did not respond, in spite of other Wikipedia activity. I then proposed that the discussion be closed, as they had not substantiated their argument and no one else was seriously contesting the article's neutrality. Midnightblueowl (talk · contribs) supported this action, but only then did Lx respond, bringing up the German article on the same subject as evidence that other sources and material existed that should've been used. Prion then refuted the German Wikipedia page's reliability and that of its sources at which point the Holocaust denier remark was made by Lx towards Piron. Lx also then listed the Spanish and French Wikipedia articles on the Congo Free State as evidence for their argument. Shortly after the formal complaint was made before this board by Piron, I responded at length to Lx, agreeing with Piron's findings on the German Wikipedia and finding the two other Wikipedia's to be most unsuitable. Lx stated that I "didn't read carefully enough" and emphasized their older points. They also then took the time to make assertions about Piron's "intransigent" attitude. They also accused Piron of reverting their addition of a new photo to the article, attributing it to said "intransigent" attitude. Prion had in fact made this rversion as it had been stated at the beginning of the dispute that both Prion and Lx would refrain from editing while a discussion was ongoing (granted, I don't know if Lx ever agreed to the provision). I clarified my critiques on the "sources" Lx suggested and then reiterated the reason behind Piron's reversion. I asked Lx to "please refer to a specific source you think we can use?" that "1) discuss[es] the atrocities and 2) [is] reliable?" It doesn't appear Lx has been on Wikipedia since then, so I'm still waiting for a response. In the event one doesn't come, I would ask that the admins just offer their consensus in closing the dispute (or whatever their honest opinion on the matter is). I ask this because I'm afraid that like last time Lx will only show up to halt a cloture with more unfounded argument. My main concern is the article at hand, so I think that might be the best way of handling the local problem. As for the larger problem at hand, Lx's behavior, I can only say that I'm very discouraged by what I've seen -Indy beetle (talk) 07:09, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- Like Indy beetle I came to this debate as a neutral third party. While I have always remained open to Lx's suggestions as to how the article could be improved (and continue to remain open to them), Lx's behaviour (toward Piron in particular) is far beyond the pale. In my view, a ban would be the obvious course of action, at the very least one that stops Lx editing Congolese-themed articles and their Talk Pages.

L'honorable (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • nuke contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log)
- Disruptive editor, blocked on NL and DE wiki, block on Commons
in process. - Complete disregard for any rule combined with megalomania (he's actually in the process of teaching the Wiki-UK office in London about copyright.)

- Copied his talk page from Commons to his enwiki talk w/o proper attribution.
- My last real edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AL%27honorable&type=revision&diff=760150382&oldid=760148577 (23:53, 14. Jan. 2017), still it seems I communicated with him on enwiki, which I didn't.
- He selectively copied from Commons https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:L%27honorable
- His insult from https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AL%27honorable&type=revision&diff=230435711&oldid=230434151 copied to his talk here as well.
Of course he'll try to sweet talk himself out of this again, poor little user who doesn't know better approach.
I request a block for constantly violating rules, insulting a user on another project and knowingly copying this insult to EN-wiki. Please don't forget to remove the insult from his talk page. Thanks. --Hedwig in Washington (TALK) 00:21, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Most of this appears to be regarding a disagreement you're having with the user on commons. Can you link anything on enwiki? SQLQuery me! 00:50, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Search his talk for are you sound which he wrote and then copied from his Commons talk to here. Read the sentence. That should suffice for a block. Did certainly suffice on Commons. In the end I don't care if he's allowed to edit here or not. At least clean the talk page of his insults and advise the troll not to copy talk pages w/o preserving the history. Maybe somebody here can educate this guy that the projects are not about him. --Hedwig in Washington(TALK) 01:56, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Since when is insulting users allowed here? The edit clearly infers a medical condition. Once again, search for are you of sound read the sentence and tell me that this is not an insult / a blockable offence. [312]. This comment would be enough to drag that user in front of a German court. (§ 185 / 187 StGB) Please remove it together with the copyright infringement of the copied talk page (sourced from Commons), this I also x-wiki canvassing, another offence which is blockable according to enwiki.
- Insult / defamation: [313] fourth line from the bottom.
- His Commons talk page copied from [314] to his talk page here, history not preserved: copy vio. Compare User talk:L'honorable to [315]
- Canvassing / disruptive edits [316] [317] mass pinging of Commons users, uninvolved people on enwiki.
- [318] [319]
- This user has no regard towards any rules, unless they suit him.
- The insult got him blocked on Commons and it's not enough for admin action here? Can't be right. --Hedwig in Washington(TALK) 04:42, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- That sounds damned close to a legal threat to me. Don't do that. SQLQuery me! 06:09, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Where is a legal threat? I simply stated a fact on which you refuse to act. You know what? If every troll can call another user mentally ill, forget it. Seems he found one friend at last. --Hedwig in Washington(TALK) 06:22, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- That sounds damned close to a legal threat to me. Don't do that. SQLQuery me! 06:09, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Merely an observation, a threat looks different. A legal threat would be pointless anyway, since Common law would apply. Instead of asking ten times for a diff you should have read the post. Seems you stall the whole thing on purpose trying to sweep the PA under the carpet. Is that it? If it is, say so and cut this short. Or are you finally acting on the PA or not? --Hedwig in Washington(TALK) 06:36, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Hedwig in Washington, nothing has been done because YOU have not shown anything needs to be done. You need to provide evidence (in the form of diffs of edits L'honorable has made on en.wikipedia.org) of violation of a policy. To accuse another editor of making personal attacks without providing evidence is in itself a personal attack. Added to the legal threat, you are looking at a boomerang block. My suggestion would be to give us diffs on your next edit or drop it. John from Idegon (talk) 06:50, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- I have warned L'honorable to tone down as his discussion style was at least rude and disruptive. He did not take the advice. The Banner talk 09:25, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Having read through this section and the talk page (I was pinged, but I'm not getting dragged any further into this), L'honorable is being very aggressive and attacking in his style of interaction, and appears to be bringing a Commons dispute over here to seek help. L'honorable should not do that, and should keep disputes at other projects where they belong - when you are blocked on Commons, there are avenues there for seeking unblock. I don't see enough for a block here on en.wiki just now, but L'honorable is on the edge of personal attacks - Hedwig in Washington does have cause to feel aggrieved and, in my view, should not be threatened with boomerang action. L'honorable should be told to drop it at en.wiki and to to keep the Commons dispute at Commons, with the possibility of future action if that does not happen. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 10:38, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- If you run a search for "Be aware", you'll see that User:Beeblebrox removed this person's block less than three weeks ago with a statement that problematic actions, including personal attacks, would lead to a restored indefinite block, and a reminder that a second indef is rarely granted. My further comments depend on you going here, finding "wild goose chase", and scrolling down just a tiny bit. And here we have references to Hedwig's actions as "bullying" (most onwiki uses of this moral-panic subject are an attempt to sway emotions against the alleged bully, and this is no different), followed by a completely contradictory "I have not accused you of even 1% bullying", attempts to sway things by pinging eleven people because "I need some support here", and other unacceptable content. Yes, this is clearly copied from Commons, but this kind of content has been added here and is prohibited here, so its source doesn't matter. The first part of the statement by Beeblebrox is coming true, and its second is not likely to be proven inapplicable here. Nyttend (talk) 12:46, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Note. I've reverted Callmemirela's close of this as a "content dispute" after a mere hour. Complaining about my admin action (semiprotecting a page) as the OP did is hardly a content dispute, and I feel there may be more comments here, even though the OP has been blocked for disruptive editing. Comments by Sitush or some of the Indian admins, for instance. If not, I'll be fine with closing it in a few hours. Bishonen talk 19:16, 22 January 2017 (UTC).
Hello everyone,
I noticed that User:Sitush reverted my very important insertions, and administrator User:Bishonen claims the insertions were "disruptive".
I must note that both users seem to have been involved in the prior dispute mentioned on the Reliable sources discussion page, and are violating wikipedia ettiquette.
That is, the s:Imperial Gazetteer of India is considered a WP:RS per item (3) on the What is wikisource? article, which states that wikisources are reliable sources.
Further, I looked at the old discussion involving User:Sitush's previous disruptions, and while the opposing editor at that time definitely passionate, I can see why they were frustrated.
It seems Sitush is trying to use his own webpage to override a well-established protocol, which is that wikipedia sources are reliable. Here, Sitush claims they're unreliable and again (like before, from the previous dispute) refers users to his own page User:Sitush/CasteSources which seems to be overriden by the wikisource.
I am seeking action on this matter, as it cannot be refuted that if the reference used is a wikisource, then it is a reliable source. I don't know how or why the behaviour by Sitush has been allowed. I do not think adding page protection was reasonable here, either.
I would like my edits restored, and both User:Sitush and User:Bishonen reprimanded for violating ettiquette. I do not know why the latter is abusing their administrator privileges calling the insertions disruptive, either, when they are in line with wikipedia rules. I do not find Sitush's User:Sitush/CasteSources page as an acceptable argument to override rules (it seems this was also argued before, and upset the opposition as he kept doing this).
Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.119.86.58 (talk) 16:06, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- This edit indicates a history to this dispute that we are so far unaware of. Surely, too, the two ANI 'notifications' the IP left were a trifle vitriolic to say the least? O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 16:41, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: I'm not convinced item (3) on the What is wikisource? article means what you think it means. Wikisource contains Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species, for example - this is a reliable source for what Darwin wrote; it is not necessarily a reliable source when discussing current evolutionary theory (and it is obviously not a reliable source for the current population of the People's Republic of China or the 2015 winner of the Best Actor at the Oscars!) It doesn't look at all to me like Sitush is using "his own webpage" to overrule consensus - it looks to me like he's summarised why otherwise reliable sources may not be reliable in all instances, based on previous discussions at the reliable sources noticeboard. I'm also a wee bit concerned that you don't seem to be assuming good faith with respect to these two editors. Also - why raise this at WP:RSN and here at ANI? Why not wait until editors at WP:RSN have replied? 80.229.60.197 (talk) 16:49, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Note: It's utterly irrelevant to say that Sitush's subpage User:Sitush/CasteSources can't be used as a source. No, of course it can't! It has never been offered as a source, but as a page that explains about sourcing in the area of castes on Wikipedia, with a lot of diffs and links to show consensus regarding the points Sitush makes, as per 80.229.60.197 above. A good example is Sitush's explanation of the unreliability of historians from the British Raj period, and the necessity of using modern academic work. I would have thought this was obvious to anybody who read Sitush's page in good faith and with competence in reading the English language; I don't know which of the two this OP is short of. As for the notion that everything on Wikisource (a library of primary sources), however old, outdated, and/or biased, is a reliable source for any context, I'll just leave it to the reader to evaluate.

Catflap08 violation of ArbCom TBAN
| BANNED | |
| Per consensus. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:13, 23 January 2017 (UTC) | |
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I stumbled upon an ANI section relation to Hijiri88, who has an IBAN with Catflap08, where the question of if Hijiri88 is abiding by said IBAN. One user noted that Catflap08 had made some recent edits after not editing for basically a year.[320] So first I found an apparent admission of guilt on his talk page,[321] and then what he was admitting to doing.[322] According to Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Catflap08 and Hijiri88#Catflap08: Topic ban (I) (a case in which I was involved in), Catflap08 is "indefinitely topic-banned from all pages relating to Nichiren Buddhism and its adherents, broadly construed." Soka Gakkai, the article he edited with an edit summary of ":-)", is about a Nichiren Buddhist organization, thus putting him in violation of the TBAN placed by ArbCom.
Therefore, I am requesting that Catflap08 be blocked for no ness than one month as prescribed at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Catflap08 and Hijiri88#Enforcement. ミーラー強斗武 (StG88ぬ会話) 07:46, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

- Oshwah, you did not leave a block notice on their talk page. Softlavender (talk) 10:40, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
- P.S.: I agree that the block should be one month (rather than only 72 hours), since the user, who has only edited twice in the past 11 months [323], is actively bragging about violating the tban on their talk page [324], and since the edit, and its edit summary, were clearly made as a deliberate and overt flouting of the ban. Softlavender (talk) 10:45, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
- Weird... I definitely notified the user... apparently the block notice I left didn't save. Done - Thanks for letting me know, Softlavender. After taking some time to think about the block duration I applied, I decided to extend the block to one month, as it's clearly what should be done. This is my first time applying a block due to ArbCom enforcement... I guess I'm just not used to applying blocks like this. Either way, you're absolutely right - it's what I should applied in the first place. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:01, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
- Holy blurp—Catflap's comment was basically a "block me, please"! Given it's been so long since he last edited, and how brazen he was with the edit and talk-page comment, what is a one-month block supposed to achieve? It's obviously not going to prevent the same behaviour. Curly "JFC" Turkey 🍁 ¡gobble! 11:48, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
- I'm undoing the good-faith non-admin close of this thread because obviously a one-month block will not affect Catflap in the least, since they had previously not edited in 11 months. I think it's time to discuss a site ban of Catflap, since this edit was clearly antagonistic and self-advertised, and had a trolling smiley as an edit summary. Clearly the edit was made to antagonize and defy the community, and clearly Catflap is no longer here to build an encyclopedia but only to deliberately disrupt.

Robert McClenon (talk) 18:00, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: I'm on the fence as to whether a siteban is excessive in this instance, or called for by Catflap's longterm and continued inability to follow the rules. It seems like an indef would be the way to go, even if we wanted an open-ended block. But it strikes me that there is a more fundamental issue here. Shouldn't this be referred to WP:AE? That's generally the forum for enforcement of ArbCom sanctions. Snow let's rap 22:04, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Tedder closed this AfD [325] after only two days as "speedy keep". Another editor and I discussed this with him or her as an inappropriate close (see discussion here). He has decided to stick by his decision. Closing this after two days does not seem to be correct procedure. And there is no way to predict the future and say that it would be "speedy keep" after seven days or 14 days. All that happened within two days is some of those who think the article should be kept Ivoted. This is not a conclusive outcome. I am requesting an Admin reopen this AfD. Also, it seems Tedder doesn't have a problem with another Admin reopening this AfD. Thanks. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:57, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

- Steve Quinn, if you feel strongly about this and want it relisted or reopened, then you should take it to DRV. I doubt it would get reopened as it looks like a fine application of WP:SNOW to me (given, I was a keep !vote, but I also don't feel that strongly about this article.) Anyway, you're going to get more people looking at the AfD from a procedural standpoint there than here, and you're far less likely to get humourous responses like EEng's above.

- (edit conflict) Yeah, just to be clear, I was and am considering DRV for a procedural decision based on your first comment above. I don't know if I will do so. I will discuss with the other editor. Also, I don't think it should have gone to AfD at this time anyway. I wanted to wait another six months. But I wasn't consulted :) and, well, people do what they do.

Disruptive editing
I had the pleasure to meet 69.119.168.78 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) because of this edit. I never had seen the page before, but someone complained on the Help Desk. Since the edit was a blatant BLP violation I (manually) reverted it and left a level-2 warning about RS (without really investigating the matter further) (there was no content on the user talk page but OTOH it was still serious enough that level 1 seemed to mild).
The editor blanked my warning with ES "I cited sources, you fool", and left an edit war warning on my talk page. I intended to politely but sternly warn them that the warning is incorrect ("repeatedly [overriding] contributions", per WP:EDITWAR, requires at least two edits), saw an empty user talk page, got suspicious, checked the TP history and lo and behold, another warning and before that this one-week block three months ago.

Page move ban
| There is no consensus for an outright ban at this time; however, there is obviously considerable feeling that page moves being undertaken are controversial.

Discussion (Dicklyon)
I hate to do this, but IMHO, it is time that Dicklyon (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • nuke contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log) was banned from moving pages. His moves of railway related articles are often controversial and challenged, yet he continues to move pages without discussion.
Evidence of this can be seen at
- Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_UK_Railways/Archive_37#Recent article moves removing capitalisation of 'line'
- talk:Woodhead line#Page move
- Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK Railways#Foo Line or Foo line?
and elsewhere. The most recent I'm aware of was this move of the Harz Narrow Gauge Railway article which was reverted 3 hours later. That article has been at its current title since April 2009, when it was moved from the German title to its English equivalent in accordance with WP:UE.
Therefore, I propose the following editing restriction:-
Dicklyon is permanently banned from moving any page. He may request page moves through WP:RM, allowing for discussion and consensus to be reached. Mjroots (talk) 14:21, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support The MOS:CAPS (and MOS:everything else) army have driven enough editors who were far more productive than them away from Wikipedia already; we could probably do with them giving it a rest. Black Kite (talk) 14:57, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support but it's not enough. The in-article changes are as much of a problem as the page moves. This needs to be broader.
- This has particularly been a problem with automated search-and-replace changes, enforcing MOS changes onto the titles of cited books or external businesses. If MOS can be enforced automatically, then have a 'bot do it. If it can't be done so easily, then it needs care.

- I don't see the problem here. At a glance, and as a person unacquainted with these matters, Dicklyon seems to want to bring capitalization of titles in line with Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Capital letters, which says that capitals should be reserved for proper names. That seems unobjectionable to me. It's of course possible that this (like other MOS issues) can give rise to heated disputes in individual cases, but neither the request nor the links provided appear immediately indicative of any serious conduct problems concerning Dicklyon, let alone problems warranting a ban. Sandstein 15:20, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Dicklyon doesn't seem to understand what a "Proper Noun Phrase" is, which is why the Bittern Line article was moved to Bittern line, despite it being heavily marketed as the Bittern Line by the TOC, Broads Authority and Tourist Information Board. There are many other examples of such moves, most of which have been challenged. Mjroots (talk)
- And in the ensuing RMs, virtually no one agrees that what you want to label a proper name/proper noun actually is one. People who have neither a background in linguistics nor in philosophy rarely get the nuances correct, and frequently think that anything often capitalized is a proper name, and they're simply incorrect on that. I've seen that very argument advanced multiple times in the very discussions under issue, often commingled with the additional fallacy that anything that governmental sources capitalize must be a proper name, even though we know that official-ese wantonly capitalizes everything it can as form of emphasis. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 14:54, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- I can't see any way the unblock condition can be said to apply to all controversial actions. If it was intended to be all controversial actions, it should have been 'large scale or potentially controversial actions' but it was not. It was "large scale, potentially controversial actions". So it clearly only applies to stuff that is both large scale and potentially controversial. This would include mass page moves, per the example and other stuff (e.g. nominating 1000 articles for deletion in one go). It would not include a non large scale page moves, no matter how controversial. Of course an editor who has already been prohibited from something in the past, and has accepted a standard offer has to be on their best behaviour, but it's not a violation of the stated unblock condition.

- Comment: I went to Dicklyon's talk page to complain about an inappropriate page move, and saw this thread. Bradv 16:03, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose: RM is the prescribed process for determining page names (a content dispute), and these moves mostly go the direction DickLyon proposes. Many of them are edge cases or grey areas, and the reason we have RM process, instead of people moving pages at whim and moving them back, is to have consensus discussions about what the page should be named, based on what policies, guidelines and evidence, and for a body of such discussions over time to make these areas less grey and less edgy, so debate about them ceases. The fact that some of the move proposals don't succeed doesn't somehow mean that DickLyon is being disruptive, it means that DickLyon is not infallible and that the process is working. What is really going on here is that WP is beset by a large number of overcapitalizers (especially for WP:SSF reasons) and people who don't understand the difference between hyphens and dashes. They are naturally, as an aggregate class, going to be irritated by someone who focuses on cleanup of excessive capitalization (against WP:NCCAPS and MOS:CAPS) and incorrect use of horizontal line glyphs (under MOS:DASH), and who like to gang up on him at RM and, periodically, ANI – frequently making uncivil accusations about him in the process. Their own behavior needs to be examined. ANI is not a venue for circumventing RM or any other WP:PROCESS; we have those for a reason. The particular locus of this new dispute seems to be rail transit fans, who are a "particular" lot. But they cannot agree even amongst themselves; our transit and transport articles display a wide variety of conflicting styles, even with regard to the same transit system (e.g. Van Ness Station versus Fruitvale station in the San Francisco Bay Area), and the train fans, highway cataloguers, and other topical camps in the general category frequently contradict each other. With very few exceptions, these editors have no linguistic, professional copyediting, or other background in language and style matters, nor in philosophy (where the nature of what proper names really are is also debated at length), and incorrectly insist that everything they ever see capitalized for any reason in any kind of writing (e.g. signage) is a proper name, and/or that anything with any kind of label, designation, or categorization has a proper name, or both, and they are flat out incorrect. These RM discussion need to happen, with sufficient input and in sufficient number that an actual consensus emerges. Or hold a site-wide RfC on the matter at WP:VPPOL. ANI is not the venue for settling content disputes, and this is entirely a content dispute. This type of content dispute (cf. 2014 huge RfC about capitalization of common names of species, for example) can get heated, but most of the invective about it is hot air and it will dissipate once a consensus emerges one way or the other. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 17:41, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

- Support I challenged Dickylon's move of the British narrow gauge slate railways article. He doesn't appear to be interested in following Wikipedia's conventions, or even his own conventions. He is only interested in imposing his own specific interpretations of grammatical rules, no matter the context or the rationales involved.
- A few examples. He first claimed that "narrow gauge" should be converted to "narrow-gauge" because Google n-gram search (a notably unreliable mechanism, per Wikipedia's own article) showed that the hyphenated version was the more common. Then when I demonstrated that the common usage in British railway articles was unhypenated, he dismissed that evidence because it was from the specialist press, citing WP:SSF. Okay, so I demonstrated that the usage in the general British press was "narrow gauge" and he dismissed that because newspapers "don't count". He's never explained why newspapers don't count, even though WP:SSF explicitly says they do. All this is at Talk:British narrow gauge railways. He won't accept any evidence that contradicts his personally held beliefs, even when his own guidelines disagree with him. This makes it impossible to have a rational debate with Dickylon. The only rules he wants to follow exist in his mind.
- Much worse though, he started to move articles that contained the word "narrow gauge" to their hyphenated version. I politely asked him to revert he changes while the debate continued on Talk:British narrow gauge railways. My understanding is he should at least have waited for the debate to finish before imposing his own interpretation across Wikipedia. Instead he continued on his crusade, ignoring my objections and those of others. I asked him again to stop, pointing him to the debate he had already taken part in. Yet he continued moving pages.
- Even when the debate on the talk page was completed and he had failed to generate consensus, he continued to move pages, including the very page under debate.
- How is this okay? He is imposing his personal interpretation against consensus, and against guidelines. Far from following policies like [{WP:BRD]] he is riding roughshod over the spirit and letter of Wikipedia at every turn. It's hugely frustrating and a massive waste of time, energy and goodwill. Railfan23 (talk) 23:49, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- Can you link where you say you challenged my move of the British narrow gauge slate railways article? I think you're mistaken there, along with much of the rest of what you say about me, like what I'm interested in (which is neither true nor relevant), or that I "first claimed that "narrow gauge" should be converted to "narrow-gauge" because Google n-gram search showed that the hyphenated version was the more common". I did not; the n-gram search was about evidence, not about a reason; if you see a place where I said something inappropriate, link it and let others see, too. And if these "narrow-gauge" moves are so bad, why have practically none of them been reverted? The narrow gauge slate railways this morning was the first, I think; and the other one this morning at Harz Narrow Gauge Railways, which I had not known about before this AN/I complaint, since I was sleeping. At the RM discussion, you were the only one opposed to the hyphen, with your silly Br/Am theory that I disproved; nobody backed you up on that pushback, because it made no sense. Bermicourt tried that later in a different context, but then resorted to a much more plausible rationale for the Harz, saying it's the official company name (even though the official company name is actually German and the article is about the lines, more than about the company, and even though it appears lowercase a lot in English-language books, but those are points I'll bring up if we do an RM later; for now, I've been reverted on that one, so next we discuss). So only two reverts out of all these horrible moves, and both while I slept this morning, is reason to ban me from page moving? Dicklyon (talk) 00:46, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- First, apologies, I got the detail wrong. I objected to your mass move of articles and only to your proposed move of British narrow gauge slate railways here. Your first justification of the hyphenated version in Talk:British narrow gauge slate railways was this one at which you explicitly cite the Google n-gram search. You gave no other justification for why the hyphenated version should be preferred. You may have intended that to be "evidence", not a "reason" - but a reasonable reading of what you wrote, is that you are saying the n-gram search is the justification for your proposed hyphenation.
- It was only [later that you said] WP:SSF was the justification for changing "narrow gauge" to "narrow-gauge". Though of course you only apply the very small bit of that guideline that agrees with your personal opinion, and continue to ignore the rest. If you won't stand consistently behind the guideline, don't quote it at all.
- I did not revert your page moves because I believe it is better to discuss instead of imposing my opinion. I asked you, twice, on your talk page to revert the moves. I thought that was more productive than just reverting you, and also believed I clearly expressed my wish for them to be reverted. Will you really only respect the outcome of a discussion if you have been reverted first? My objection was just as clear as reverting would have been, while being less disruptive and more respectful. You just continued on making changes over objections, while the debate was still running. Railfan23 (talk) 01:42, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- This venting is off-base and misplaced. See MOS:HYPHEN: narrow-gauge is hyphenated when used as an adjective because compound adjectives are hyphenated (in WP's formal/academic register, anyway, even if some news-style publishers are dropping the practice; WP is not written in news style). As I said above, that's is just an attempt to re-litigate a content dispute in the wrong forum. Your disagreement (a factually incorrect one and WP:POLICY-contradicting one) against Dick_lyon is not an ANI matter, but an RM one. The move in question should certainly not be controverted by a reasonable person, since it comports with both our style guide and other major style guides and grammatical works; the objection is not reasonable. Next, you're welcome to use WP:RM#CM to contest an undiscussed move and open a full RM on it. That's the standardized process for this; ANI is not it. I have to wonder, when this is not done and people open bogus ANIs instead, if its because they suspect that a full RM will (as is typically the case) agree with the move that DL made. PS: I note that some of the "examples" of "disruptive moves" mentioned here were in fact already upheld by RMs; so people are trying to punish DL for successfully demonstrating consensus via the prescribed processes.

- You assert that no reasonable person could revert Dicklyon's moves. It is clearly not the case that all style guides agree with you, nor that the general usage agrees. WP:NOT#NEWS applies to content not style, so isn't relevant. MOS:HYPHEN includes suggestions on hyphenation, not incontrovertible rules. Your own guideline WP:SSF says "Wikipedia and its Manual of Style, article titles policy, and related guidance draw primarily upon reliable general-purpose, broad-scope sources for editing guidelines. These sources include the best-accepted style guides for formal writing – like the current editions of The Chicago Manual of Style ... as well as observation of what is most commonly done in reliable general-audience publications like newspapers and non-specialized magazines and websites". So this assertion that newspaper usage doesn't count is frightfully convenient, but not actually correct.
- If there was an indisputable hyphenation rule, then Dicklyon's approach might be sound. But there isn't, and simply asserting that there is doesn't make it so. Given there are reasonable grounds to debate this, we should seek consensus instead of imposing one particular interpretation, especially while the debate is still going on. The real issue is not the merit of a hyphenation rule, but how Dicklyon interacts with other editors. Ignoring requests and on-going debates, constantly changing the goalposts, refusing to debate substantive arguments, ignoring the parts of rules that contradict his position while rigorously enforcing other parts. These are not in the spirit of Wikipedia and should be discussed. Railfan23 (talk) 06:00, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- Nobody is suggesting that there's an indisputable hyphenation rule. All guides talk about having to make choices. But generally, the choice is not that hard, as in this case, and your dispute of it was based on a bogus Br/Am claim, and later on a claim that the hyphen slows the reader down. It became clear that you don't understand hyphens. Nobody else supported you on either of those bogus theories, nor objected on any other basis, until Bermicourt much later and independently came up with the same bogus Br/Am theory (where is this coming from?).

- Andrew Lenahan, you've made an overtly political statement. I do believe that this forum should minimise political content, just as it should try to distance itself from the personal. In my view, this is a problem with the whole thread. Dicklyon might simply be reminded of the need for care and consultation, and this matter should be thrown out so we can get on with more important things. Tony(talk) 02:33, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- Feel free to disagree if you wish, but I have as much right to speak as you do. In fact, if anything the general obnoxiousness and failure to get the point by Dicklyon and his cohorts in this very discussion has further convinced me that this is a serious problem that needs to be dealt with. I stand firmly behind every single word. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 21:05, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Let me see if I have this right.
1. Anyone supporting Dicklyon is a "cohort" and their opinions can therefore be dismissed (however, the reverse is not true).
2. Your opposition's failure to concede is further proof that they are wrong and that "this is a serious problem that needs to be dealt with".
That is some of the most remarkable reasoning I've seen in awhile, even in MoS wars. Stand behind it all you like. ―Mandruss☎ 23:56, 9 January 2017 (UTC)- All he did was repeat Black Kite's accusation (or "impressions") of unspecified past transgressions by unspecified editors, as "the negative effect of the overly-pedantic MOS editors". Nothing to refute, nothing to stand behind. I agree it's remarkable, the extent to which he wants to say nothing. We can get the point that he is somehow frustrated about wikignomes and the MOS. It happens. And Meryl Streep is way over-rated. Dicklyon (talk) 01:21, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- There must be a term for framing a debate in a way that makes it impossible to lose and therefore not a true debate. This is not the first time I've encountered that tactic; not too long ago a 50,000-edit editor stated that the best way to demonstrate my good faith was to agree with his viewpoint. It was bulletproof! Anybody know the term for that? ―Mandruss☎ 06:32, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

- Oppose. The claim that Dicklyon is doing mass page moves has no credible evidence. It appears he's prohibited from taking controversial actions, which is an absurd restriction,
totoo vague to be taken seriously. Under the circumstances, it might be best if he refrained from making controversial moves without an RfC or RM request, but making it a restriction is unjustified. — Arthur Rubin(talk) 02:35, 8 January 2017 (UTC)- How are we defining "mass"? Dicklyon move logKeri (talk) 10:39, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose per SMcCandlish, Sandstein, David Eppstein, Tony1, et al. I see the target being calmly responsive to criticism, in the face of comments like "I don't give a damn what you think" from a 10-year editor. Such invective is never appropriate, I have seen it before from that side of this longstanding dispute, and it tells me a lot about the situation without spending days studying its history. I have enough exposure to Dicklyon's editing to know that he cares at least as much about process as many of his attackers here. Has the appearance of an ideological witch hunt.
Look, it is not Dicklyon's fault that the community has failed to reach a clear consensus on the underlying issue; i.e., the role of MoS at en-wiki. He is doing what he feels is right in the absence of clear and unambiguous guidance, and we should not be scapegoating him for our own failure. ―Mandruss☎ 06:12, 8 January 2017 (UTC) - Strong oppose – Dicklyon is not a disruptive editor and cares deeply about the integrity of the encyclopedia. AN/I is the wrong venue for this MOS debate. Cheers!

- The simple fact is, that was your response when it was pointed out to you that something was a proper noun, and should therefore not be arbitrarily given lower case letters. It's an uncivil response because you're not willing to accept that you may be wrong. If you're not willing to defer to the opinions of people from a relevant Wikiproject, and instead you're slavishly (and in this case incorrectly) following the guidelines in the Manual of Style, then it calls into question that long list of page moves. Is anyone going to volunteer to check through every single one and make sure that a lack of core knowledge hasn't pushed through moves that have over-ridden the opinions of people who are better versed in the subject matter?

- Question: What percentage of Dicklyon's page moves turn out to be overturned? As far as I can tell only a very small percentage. If so then preventing him from doing moves would be a significant loss for the encyclopedia. Paul August ☎ 18:53, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- That's an interesting question. I estimate about 1% usually, but there have been a few clusters that might push that up a bit, such as the group of 7 Japanese railway lines that I downcased on 10 Dec. that all got reverted; leaving that alone until I get around to discussion. And the sneak-attack at Talk:2016 NFL Draft#Requested move 30 April 2016, a single-page RM at a new article, watched by very few and probably only be NFL fans, which was interpreted as overturning all the XXXX NFL draft article titles that had been stable since I had downcased them in 2014 (see why I did: [327], [328]). So maybe 2 or 3%. Or maybe I'm in denial and someone can show that it's higher than that. Dicklyon (talk) 22:15, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- That percentage would need to be compared with the percentage for the average editor (or the average editor with x+ edits/page moves maybe). It could just be that a large number were left alone because none cares. TigraanClick here to contact me 17:27, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- I don't think the average editor has anything to do with it. We simply want to know whether his moves are a net plus, or a net minus, for the project. And that no one "cares" about a move would seem to constitute reasonable prima facie evidence that it was OK. Paul August ☎ 19:02, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Strong oppose, per SMcCandlish, Sandstein, Arthur Rubin, Tony1, et al. I've had limited interaction with Dick, but I've no doubt whatsoever that he is here to improve the encyclopedia, and is a net-positive to the project. This is draconian. Joefromrandb (talk) 23:44, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- It's worse than draconian, which would be something like a lone "I am the law!" admin taking terribly harsh action against Lyon and anyone who agrees with him.

- Why am I getting the impression that it's me vs Dicklyon here? I wasn't the only one who complained about his moving of articles over a period of several months. There were plenty of others. I think this discussion has now run for long enough, so it should be closed by an uninvolved admin. As I said elsewhere in this discussion, I did consider indeffing Dicklyon; but I thought it would be be better for all concerned to raise the issue here.

- Strong oppose I have read this whole page, including the below discussions. I am convinced that banning Dicklyon would be a miscarriage, and any sanction would be inappropriate. First, there is no evidence that Dicklyon has been disruptive either in the short term or the long term. In fact, the preponderance of evidence points to Dicklyon editing in accordance with guidelines and polices.
- Second, it seems the complainant is overreacting by bringing this issue to ANI and by having considered a more draconian alternative (please see below) - and that the alternative was in any way reasonable. In light of this, I recommend this person take a wiki break due to WP:INVOLVED.
- Third, assuming good faith, there is a small cluster of editors who are relying on sources that are specialist or ambiguous and therefore not sufficient for determining the correct letter case for the title and when it is used in the body of the article. It is clear from the discussions on this page, and the discussions that have been linked to, WP:NCCAPS, MOS:CAPS and WP:SSM, along with related guidelines, are the appropriate references for article title conventions on Wikipedia.
- Articles are supposed to be consistent across Wikipedia, and not edited according to a mish mash of rules by various groups of people across Wikipedia. This is because we are striving to become a premier or the premier reference work as an encyclopedia - so that is why we follow these conventions (please see: WP:NCCAPS). Dicklyon edits in agreement with these principles and guidelines - so we shouldn't even be here, at this ANI.---Steve Quinn (talk) 06:37, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support per Black Kite, Keri, Lugnuts, Railfan, Exemplo347, Only in death, and Starblind. He was unblocked a year ago on the condition that he make no controversial page moves [329], and these moves are controversial and have been objected to. And they are extensive: [330] Adding hypens and en-dashes makes searching more difficult; people have objected more than once but he doesn't seem to be getting the message. WP:RM#CM says "[A] move is potentially controversial if ... [s]omeone could reasonably disagree with the move." He also aggressively pursued Nyttend across multiple forums about his close of the RM for Steamboat Bill, Jr.: [331], [332], [333]. It's time to just put this disruption to rest. Softlavender (talk) 10:35, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- I already discuss below how I reacted to the few moves that were challenged; if you think there are others where my reaction was inappropriate, can you point them out? And on the use of dashes between person names, are you saying that's controversial now? I thought that was settled in 2011. None of these have been challenged, which is why I was working on that while waiting for this railroad challenge to resolve. Dicklyon (talk) 17:13, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- The links provided by Softlavander do not demonstrate that Dicklyon "agressively pursued User:Nyttend across multiple forums" for that RM close or any other. A number of editors were involved in these discussions and Dicklyon happened to be only one of them. Nyttend seemed to lose sight of proper use of Admin tools and status and this needed to be discussed. Softlavender's claim has no basis in fact. There is nothing to indicate Soflavender's view of this matter is accurate.

- Also, linking to Dicklyon's entire move log history appears to be an attempt to say all his page moves have been controversial. This is not the case. As has already been discussed, perhaps 1% to 3% have been challenged or reverted and discussion ensued if it was necessary. The only exception, as Dicklyon pointed out, are the Japanese Railway issues because the reverts in this project occurred recently, and he hasn't gotten around to it yet. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:16, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- Here are the conditions of his unblock a year ago [334], and here are his thousands of unilateral page moves since his unblock [335]. The objections to his moves since his unblock are mentioned and alluded to in this thread and are the very reason the thread was opened (there are obviously many, they just don't all happen to be listed here because that's not necessary nor is everyone watching ANI), and contesting one type of move is an implicit objection to the whole family of that type of moves, so the individual "percent objected to" is a misleading statistic. He has obviously violated the conditions of his unblock, so he needs to go through RM for any further moves. That's not a burden, since RM moves can be grouped into families of the same type. Softlavender (talk) 05:38, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- I continue to maintain that my moves are not controversial, based on the fact that so few of them are challenged, and those few that are challenged I either quickly made right or found a consensus in favor. If you want to point out counter-examples, please do. Otherwise, all you're accusing me of is doing a lot of work, which I have already stipulated to. Dicklyon (talk) 06:09, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Partial oppose and partial neutral. I personally believe that the project would be better off if the ban were imposed, largely for the reasons given here by individuals such as Softlavender and Calton, but because of recent disputes I don't want that wish to be considered for consensus. I'm therefore neutral on the proposal for the most part.Given the fact that all dispute over Dicklyon's pagemove activities appear to me to be mainspace-related, and given people's propensity to wikilawyer in general, I don't think it would be fair to impose the ban as written. If you ban him, ban him from moving pages in mainspace and Talk:space, whether they're moved within the same namespace, from one of those namespaces, or to one of those namespaces. Don't restrict him from moving pages that neither start nor end in those namespaces: as far as I know, we currently have no reason to restrict his ability to move drafts, project pages, userspace pages, etc. If the ban were limited to main and talk, I would be entirely neutral. Nyttend (talk) 23:48, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- Very cute; translation: "I probably shouldn't say anything because of my recent anti-MOS rants, but I agree with Softlavender, who hasn't made it clear what her complaint is other than bugging an admin for his involved close, and with Calton, who has made no complaint at all". Not much I can say to that... As for the rest of your idea, I think everyone will know that it's a distinction without a difference. Dicklyon (talk) 00:09, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support per Calton. When you're so aggressive that you display hostility toward the neutral, when you've demonstrated that you won't brook opposition on this kind of question, and when you characterise disagreement as opposition to project standards instead of considering that there might be room for disagreement, the encyclopedia will benefit if you are prohibited from moving pages. I still maintain that we shouldn't restrict his ability to move pages other than mainspace or talkspace. Nyttend (talk) 00:14, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- Shouldn't you call Calton here to voice his complaint if you're going to reference it? Dicklyon (talk) 00:35, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- And you can't really make "I personally believe that the project would be better off if the ban were imposed" neutral, no matter what word you put in front of it. Dicklyon (talk) 01:02, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- So that we can get more of a consensus of opinions based on the December 2015 unblock request, I'm going to ping all of the various participants in, and the closer of, that unblock request, who have not already commented here: [336]: Prodego, Mike V, Reaper Eternal, DoRD, Beyond My Ken, BusterD, Johnuniq, DGG, Graeme Bartlett, Jenks24, Xaosflux, Thryduulf, Begoon, NinjaRobotPirate, Brustopher, Worm That Turned, Ivanvector, BD2412, Salvidrim!, Epicgenius, Antidiskriminator, Jonathunder. The wording of the close was "User unblocked (with provision to avoid large scale, controversial actions) per consensus here." Softlavender (talk) 06:09, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- In response to the ping, I looked at this mess a while ago and decided that getting involved would be a mistake. Supporting the page moves would support the kind of activity that is very destructive in a collaborative community, while not supporting them would suggest that Wikipedia should not have extended battles over important issues such as hyphens and title case. My ideal would involve someone working out how peace and quiet could be achieved by indeffing the fewest number of good editors. Johnuniq (talk) 10:09, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- (responding to ping) Support ban from page moves because it is clear from the evidence presented here and in the linked discussions that (a) Dicklyon is interested in making everything conform to his opinion of what the manual of style suggests should be be the case rather than understanding (or apparently attempting to understand) the topic at hand or why people are objecting to the moves (objections may or may not be correct, but they must be addressed not dismissed without thought); and (b) they have breached the conditions of their unblock (for the record, I consider an average of more 1 or 2 requested moves per day over a month or to be engaging in mass moves because page moves are your focus, not the content of the articles being moved). If I thought myself an uninvolved administrator I would impose this ban as a discretionary sanction under WP:ARBATC. The principles of that arbitration case are also worth repeating here, as some seem to have forgotten them, "The English Wikipedia's Manual of Style (MoS) is a guideline, or a set of "best practices" supported by consensus. The MoS is not a collection of hard rules.", "Behavior that violates Wikipedia's policies, even if driven by good intentions, is still inappropriate. Editors acting in good faith may still be sanctioned when their actions are disruptive." (that this thread exists is reason enough to show that Dicklyon's behaviour is disruptive, that others are trying to characterise it as an interpersonal dispute actually supports this) and the first rememdy "[Editors] are reminded to avoid personalizing disputes concerning the Manual of Style [and] the article titles policy ('WP:TITLE')…". Thryduulf (talk) 13:29, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- (responding to ping) Support ban from page moves. Clearly, the expectations when unblocked have not been met. Jonathunder (talk) 14:57, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- NOTE: I don't think a lot of the Opposers have properly read the proposal. It reads: "Dicklyon is permanently banned from moving any page. He may request page moves through WP:RM, allowing for discussion and consensus to be reached." There is nothing draconian about this proposal, especially since it falls perfectly in line with the conditions of his unblock a year ago: [337]. -- Softlavender (talk) 13:50, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose all sanctions (responding to ping) per Sandstein and SMcCandlish, and everyone else who has already cited their analyses as reason to oppose this proposal. I have not followed Dicklyon at all since the unblock request over a year ago, except for seeing him at a move review quite recently on a topic not related to this. I recall suggesting that he be banned from bold (undiscussed) page moves for six months; I'm unsure if that was formally imposed but he seems to have abided by it anyway. The discussions linked by the proposer appear to be examples of Dicklyon constructively commenting in a requested move discussion whether he initiated the discussion or not. If some of those discussions result from examples of Dicklyon boldly moving a page, it appears to have been done in response to consensus reached in a clearly related discussion, and at any rate he was not banned from doing so at the time. If consensus is reached for the proper way to treat a particular situation on one article, it's needlessly disruptive to expect to hold a separate 7-day discussion for every other article where that exact situation also arises. Or to put it a slightly different way, each individual rail article is not an opportunity to rehash the same tired old MOS debates. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 15:38, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose all sanctions(responding to ping) per Sandstein. I also agree with SMCC "ANI is not the venue for settling content disputes, and this is entirely a content dispute." --Antidiskriminator (talk) 16:21, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Antidiskriminator: This is not entirely a content dispute. Please read the evidence presented by several people here about ignoring of past consensuses, refusal to engage in meaningful discussion, and acting contrary to the conditions imposed when he was unblocked. You can disagree that these are problematic and/or that they rise to the level of sanctions if you wish to, but pretending they don't exist is not an acceptable way forwards. Thryduulf (talk) 17:29, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thryduulf, I think we should very much ignore your accusations of "ignoring of past consensuses" and "refusal to engage in meaningful discussion", since these are brand new allegations, not previously mentioned here by anyone. If you want to taken seriously, please withdraw or correct your comments, or provide links to what you're talking about, or say what accusation in this thread you meant to refer to. This is not a forum for you to just make up shit about me. Dicklyon (talk) 17:47, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Thryduulf: Several other editors directly refuted your position and "evidence presented by several people here", with comments such as::
- "The discussions linked by the proposer appear to be examples of Dicklyon constructively commenting in a requested move discussion whether he initiated the discussion or not."
- "Look, it is not Dicklyon's fault that the community has failed to reach a clear consensus on the underlying issue; i.e., the role of MoS at en-wiki. He is doing what he feels is right in the absence of clear and unambiguous guidance, and we should not be scapegoating him for our own failure."--Antidiskriminator (talk) 19:47, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- It is definitely just a content dispute. The obvious proof of this is that Dicklyon moves a lot of articles (generally a category at a time, a sane cleanup strategy) and gets no "controversy" about it except from a couple of WP:FACTIONs on handful of extremely narrow topics, and they oppose again and again and again tendentiously no matter how much RM precedent goes against them, until there are no articles left for them to argue about because the job is done. Virtually without exception, they're trying to impose an off-WP style from specialized sources onto a general-audience encyclopedia, and trying to rope off "their" topics from the applicability of site-wide style and naming-convention guidelines and the article titles policy (which, no, is not "just a guideline"). If there were a legitimate behavioral/process problem with Dicklyon, the animosity toward his moves would be much more common and widely distributed across numerous of topics, not coming solely from a few that are world-renowned for attracting excessive fan-geekery (e.g., guns and railways). This "specialized-style fallacy is characterized by the view that "normal rules of English don't apply to us, because our topic is magically special and has its own rules that everyone must follow even when writing in a completely different kind of publication from ours". The last time such an insular group of editors tried to push their special pleading in a community-wide and lengthy RfC, the community answered 40 to 15 against, all policy rationales against, the general-audience reliable sources against, even some specialist sources against, and almost all the supporters were from the same wikiproject.
When it comes to down-with-WP-guidelines advocacy, most of the exceptions to the specialized-style fallacy pattern are motivated instead by misguided and ill-informed nationalism (cf. MOS:LQ and MOS:JR disruption), which is arguably worse but identical in the "consensus keeps going against me, but I will never give up" behavior.
How many times do we have to deal with this, with the same consensus outcome, before such "I'm going to make it my mission on WP to try to ream big holes into the guidelines that don't suit my off-WP preferences" behavior is curtailed? Our guidelines exist as a set of game rules so the game can be played instead of everyone standing on the field arguing about how to play. Many of them are arbitrary, no one likes every single one of them, and none of them are liked by everyone, but everyone does agree to play by them or they need to get off the field. The actual disruption is that caused by tendentious resistance to compliance with WP's rules, on the basis of very narrow camps of off-WP expectations, be they specialist or nationalist. WP is not written specifically for American gun collectors, Australian ornithologists, British trainspotters, or Canadian cat breeders; the way that members of such affinity groups write amongst themselves is confusing and unhelpful to WP's readership at large. WP is an encyclopedia; it is not a special-interest blogging platform. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 14:50, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Thryduulf: Several other editors directly refuted your position and "evidence presented by several people here", with comments such as::
- Thryduulf, I think we should very much ignore your accusations of "ignoring of past consensuses" and "refusal to engage in meaningful discussion", since these are brand new allegations, not previously mentioned here by anyone. If you want to taken seriously, please withdraw or correct your comments, or provide links to what you're talking about, or say what accusation in this thread you meant to refer to. This is not a forum for you to just make up shit about me. Dicklyon (talk) 17:47, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Responding to ping - Well, it took a while to read through this and the December 2015 unblock request, but on the totality of the information I've just read, I must support the proposal. If Dicklyon is correct that his changes truly represent community consensus, and are not simply a case of blindly following MOS (almost always a bad thing), then it would seem to be no big deal to require him to use the RM process to make the changes in capitalization he deems appropriate. My opinion is unfettered by any knowledge of, or preference for, whether "line" or "Line" is best, although I would imagine that it would depend on what the railway itself used. In any even, those discussions can take place at RM. Beyond My Ken (talk) 18:59, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- BMK, it would be much more disruptive to run all non-controversial moves through RM discussions. I'm perfectly happy to use that process on any single or multiple moves that are controversial; controversy is easily signalled by a revert, but very few of my moves are ever reverted, which seems to suggest that they are not controversial. As I and many other here have pointed out, they generally follow clear consensus, which would make multiple new RM discussions the disruptive way to go. Even in this discussion, nobody has been able to point out which moves they would consider to be controversial, other than the few I discuss below, which I believe were dealt with correctly to and to most people's satisfaction. So I remain unclear on what problem you are thinking you are addressing by asking me not do page moves. Dicklyon (talk) 19:27, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- I am unconvinced by your argument that being required to use normal processes can be "disruptive". At worst, you might have to wait for a consensus decision instead of getting the instant gratification of doing it yourself. That's not "disruption", although it may be an annoyance for you, but considering the commentary here, it seems as if it would serve the benefit of the community at large. Beyond My Ken (talk) 21:19, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- BMK, I do use normal processes, always, and have no objection to doing so. The reason an RM discussion is not the normal process for uncontroversial moves is that it involves time and work from a significant number of editors; doing this for routine uncontroversial moves would therefore be "disruptive" in that it would pollute the already-big RM workload with lots of extra noise. Instead, let's continue to use RMs for ones that are challenged, or reasonably look like they would be challenged (and very few of mind end up in this category; nobody has even attempted to show a bunch for which RM would have been more appropriate). Dicklyon (talk) 21:28, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- I still don't think that's what "disruption" is generally taken to mean, but in any case, you can minimize any problems by ganging together requests that all have a similar rationale, instead of filing a separate one for each article, can you not? Beyond My Ken (talk) 03:53, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Indeed, the multi-RM is less disruptive than a bunch of individual ones. That's why I did one at Talk:Chester–Manchester_line#Requested_move_2_November_2016. After the closer noted that "Furthermore, there appears to be a consensus to avoid capitalizing the word 'line'," was I to then do another one just like it? Or move on? Dicklyon (talk) 04:07, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- If the others were not of the form "Place A to Place B line", then yes, you were, since the closer was only referring to articles of that format. "Place A to Place B line" is a description, whereas "Name Line" could be either a description or a proper noun, depending on circumstances. Beyond My Ken (talk) 06:04, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- BMK, thanks, that's as much as anyone has been able to say about which of my edits might be considered controversial. And it agrees with the ones discussed already that were challenged (Bittern Line and Wherry Lines that I reverted, Wirral line that the querrier decided to agree with me on, and the Woodhead line and Huddersfield line there were reverted and then later downcased by RM consensus); we also discussed Xxx Valley line a bit, and I think Xxx branch line was pretty well agreed to be descriptive. Beyond all these, I still had perhaps 10 or 20 moves of British named lines that I did in recent months, none of which were challenged. I don't think this is "mass" quantities, and it would have been a lot more productive for someone to challenge them if they had an issue than to bring me to AN/I as Mjroots did while he had open his odd proposal to capitalize Line everywhere. Thanks for your input, and do let me know if you see any that you'd like to take to RM. Dicklyon (talk) 06:30, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, I disagree with you there. There are numerous ways to "challenge" your moves. One is to revert them one-by-one, opening separate discussion on multiple talk pages, which is pretyy inefficient and can lead to contradictory result, and another is to bring them to a noticeboard for collective consideration as a whole. I don't think you can blow off the changes that weren't reverted on that basis, since here they are, after all, being challenged. Beyond My Ken (talk) 09:57, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- You're not saying that AN/I is an appropriate place to challenge moves, are you? If any of my moves are to be challenged, I would think doing so somewhere else would be appropriate, as was done with the few I mentioned; others related were discussed implicitly in Mjroots' proposal to upcase all lines – a proposal that got zero support, and did not lead to more downcasings being challenged than the handful that have been discussed; and that was months ago. So why is he bringing it here now? And why are you piling on? I still can't get anyone to say what the actual complaint is, other than that I work too much, and I can get that at home. Dicklyon (talk) 18:34, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- AN/I is a perfectly reasonable way to challenge multiple moves made withing a short period of time, yes, because questions of behavior come into play. Beyond My Ken (talk) 00:21, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Well, challenge away then; which moves of mine do you find controversial, in what time period? Nobody else is willing to answer that oft-repeated question. Dicklyon (talk) 00:43, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Stonewalling at other noticeboards is pretty easy but at ANI people are welcome to look at the overall picture and decide whether it would be desirable for the ongoing disruption to continue unchecked, or whether participants should be requested to back off. Who cares if all your page moves are golden, the point is they are causing disruption. It appears the page moves are to "fix" dashes and letter case in titles, and the question to be resolved at ANI concerns whether the fixes warrant the ensuing disruption. My humble opinion is that they do not. Johnuniq (talk) 05:20, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- So your contention is that my edits may be all OK individually, yet disruptive in the aggregate? Gee, thanks, for your appreciation of my hard work. And please note that there have been exactly zero complaints involving a dash, so if you are introducing such a complaint, please be more explicit, lest someone get the wrong impression that any of my dash fixes have been controversial or challenged. I have discussed already the very few caps changes that were disputed, so if you see a way that any of that was disruptive, please say so. Dicklyon (talk) 05:44, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

- Objection to canvassing: Softlavender's mass invite of almost entirely people with an old bone to pick against Dicklyon was inappropriate. The previous discussion from which opponents have been harvested was't even related to the current matter but was about mass and controversial moves. The current discussion is about non-mass moves, use of normal RM process, and moves that are to comply with guidelines and thus are not controversial ("I don't like the guideline and won't stop fighting against compliance with it" isn't what "controversy" means in this context; "tendentious editing" is a better description). It is completely unreasonable for Dicklyon to have been instructed in the previous ANI to stop doing mass, controversial moves, yet now to be pilloried (by a mega-tagteam) for actually complying with that and sharply limiting his move-related activity. This ANI should just be closed as "no actoin", and should have been already many days ago. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 08:03, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

You've been here long enough to know that as long as all the editors who commented on a previous discussion are notified, regardless of their comment at the time, it is not considered WP:canvassing to get more input on a discussion by notifying all previous participants. I haven't actually counted (and don't intend to) but my impression is that the people who said they came here in response to Softlavender's pings are about equally divided between pros and cons. So, really, maybe you'd like to strike your comment? Beyond My Ken (talk) 09:57, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- I would not. It's extremely irregular to go dig up previous but only tangentially related disciplinary discussions and try to get everyone from them to come squabble at the new one. There's nothing constructive about it; it's just WP:DRAMA-mongering. If we did this normally at ANI, almost every discussion on this page would be a morass of mass-pings, and people with grudges they've been suddenly and pointlessly reminded of piling on with off-topic commentary about what happened in a previous ANI/AE/RFARB/whatever instead of the facts of the current one. Don't pick scabs, don't kick sleeping dogs, don't manufacture additional dispute in a venue meant for resolving it.

Oppose all sanctions per Sandstein and SMcCandlish, and everyone else who has already cited their analyses as reason to oppose this proposal. This is pretty much TLDNR but In have tried. I observe the tone of the arguments posed to be diametrically opposed - reasoned, logical, a-personal and objective and, in the support of the ban, the converse (all-be-it a broad-brush observation). Controversial is perhaps not well defined. Just because something is opposed, does not, ipso facto make it controversial.Cinderella157 (talk) 00:02, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- No, but it does make it disputed, and as far as WIkipedia is concerened that is the same thing. "Controversial" really only comes into play on BLPs. Beyond My Ken (talk) 00:21, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment. Wikipedia has never had any kind of human-resources management, and as a result we don't use our human capital well at all. We're volunteers, so we do what we think we want to do. In fact, certain activities can be highly addictive. A talented editor such as Dicklyon should not be spending his time fighting over capitals, commas and dashes, certainly not to the point where he's repeatedly blocked and threatened with topic bans. Something has gone wrong when that happens. Dick, it's making people unhappy, and I can't imagine that you're enjoying it much either. SarahSV (talk) 02:19, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- As long as there is no edit warring, Dicklyon has the right to be bold, others have the right to revert him and then both have an obligation to discuss (via WP:RM, perhaps). So far as I can tell, there is no evidence that Dicklyon is not following this basic Wikipedian process. Srnec (talk) 01:33, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
- You may have missed the point a little. The basic underlying question is not whether Dicklyon follows Wikipedia processes, but whether his actions fulfill the requirements of his December 2015 unblock, which had the proviso that Dicklyon "avoid large scale, controversial actions." So, to answer Dicklyon's question somewhere above - yes, a move which you made as part of a single or double or triple move could well be a problem if it is part of a "large scale" group of actions, which this does appear to be. Further, he states himself (somewhere in this voluminous thread) that he has no problem in considering any disputed move of his to be "controversial", so there we have both forks of the unblock proviso. Absent Wikilawyering, the terms of his unblock seem quite clear to me, and his violation of those terms just as clear. Any other considerations that have been thrown in to this discussion by various people are really irrelevant; the bottom line is: "Did Dicklyon violate the terms of his unblock, or did he not?" I have no brief for or against Dicklyon, but it's clear to me that he did, and therefore should be sanctioned in some way. The hardest sanction would be to restore the block that was lifted in December 2015, but that doesn't appear to be necessary or appropriate. The current proposed sanction is minimal and appropriate, in my opinion. Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:39, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Why not make a special page for proposed page moves where anyone can announce proposed page moves? Then after some set time the pages will get moved, unless there is a consensus against it as judged by an Admin. Count Iblis (talk) 08:04, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
- Reluctantly support. Though I don't always see eye-to-eye with him regarding the importance of conformity to the MOS, (largely because from what I've seen the MOS's composition is dominated by a handful of editors and their personal preferences, not really to a broad base, and there's quite a bit of tail-wagging-the-dog regarding the MOS), I know Dicklyon largely edits in good faith, but I do find that he can be obstinate when it comes to style issues and he relies too much on google tests when making his arguments. What I'm seeing here is the need for him to essentially slow down when it comes to page moves. These proposed restrictions will do just that. Being told you have to follow a standard Wikipedia process is not burdensome, just a move to ensure consensus actually exists at the article level, instead of being imposed. oknazevad (talk) 11:26, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
Response from Dicklyon
Quite a Saturday morning surprise here, after a long spell of routine work with relatively little pushback from editors of the affected pages. Yes, I move a lot of pages, largely for style and punctuation reasons. In the last 12 months I've probably moved nearly 3000 pages, that is, an average of nearly 10 per day, with bursts as high as 30 moves on a busy day. None of this is done "in mass" using tools; it's almost always done carefully, checking sources and history, though there have been exceptions where I made mistakes due to insufficient care.
The current complaint seems to be all about the railroads, where there was a cluster of British line articles where caps were widely applied to generic words, and compound "narrow gauge" when used as a modifier was lacking the hyphen that would help a reader parse it. I usually follow WP:BRD, doing a bold move, and discussing it if it gets reverted. But very few have been reverted.
- Mistakes
Yes, I've made a few mistakes, like moving again after not noticing a revert in two cases that I'm aware of.
- Take a look at Talk:Woodhead line#Requested move 17 December 2016, where I confessed to that mistake and opened a discussion. The move passed, and generally reaffirmed the idea that "line" should be lowercase except in cases where sources support interpretation as a proper name, such as Midland Main Line and East Coast Main Line.
- On Bittern Line and Wherry Lines, I immediately apologized, self-reverted, and cleaned up all incoming links when Mjroots reverted one and gave good evidence that these are treated as proper names. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK Railways#Foo Line or Foo line?
- In a couple of cases I got interrupted or forgot what I was doing, and didn't finish checking replacements via search-and-replace, and left some very wrong styling in the middle of book titles that I didn't intend to touch, as Andy Dingley pointed out on my talk page. I apologized of course, and make no excuse for such occasional lapses of care, but it's not the usual thing or worth a complaint at AN/I.
- Downcasing line
I started a big multi-RM back in November on this: Talk:Chester–Manchester line#Requested move 2 November 2016. Closer Bradv concluded that "there appears to be a consensus to avoid capitalizing the word 'line'. This consensus matches the original proposal, so we can move them all as proposed." This was after a no-consensus close at Talk:Settle–Carlisle line that approved the en dash between place names but left the line case undecided. In all cases, my opinions, and subsequent moves, were aligned with the consensus, and with the guidelines of our MOS.
Reviewing my notifications for reverts, I found one more move reverted in the last month, at Wirral line. The reverter notified me, we had a quick discussion, he withdrew his objection, and I moved it again. That's successful WP:BRD in action. Then Redrose64 move protected it for move warring, which seems kind of silly after a peace treaty where everyone is happy.
- Walking a fine Line
In the November discussion that Mjroots links at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_UK_Railways/Archive_37#Recent_article_moves_removing_capitalisation_of_.27line.27, my "opponents" express opposing views: Rcsprinter123 says "we can't be looking at this on a case-by-case basis...", while Andy Dingley says "These need to be discussed and decided on a case by case basis." I'm generally somewhere in between. As Andy says, each one needs to researched and decided; but in the past it was done Rcsprinter123's or Mjroots's way, in which they were all made arbitrarily "consistent" by capitalizing. For most, sources don't support caps, so those are the ones I was moving. In almost all cases, the move I did was either not reverted or sustained after discussion, so I think that indicates that I've mostly researched things correctly. Where I haven't, I'm happy to be shown, and fix it. And any one that Andy thinks needs to be discussed, he can revert (but probably not in bulk as Nathan A RF and Rcsprinter123 did, which got them slapped around a bit there).

- Narrow gauge
One editor, Railfan23, told me that it's British to not bother with the hyphen when using "narrow gauge" as a modifier, as in Narrow-gauge railway. He didn't revert me. I showed him that he was wrong, that in books, the hyphen there is about equally more common in British English as in American English. Other editors supported that, both on my talk page and in an RM about something in which I said that if we going to move it, or not, we should fix the hyphen to help the reader parse it. Given the obvious support in sources and among editors, I went ahead and did a bunch of these, with almost no pushback. Another editor, Bermicourt, came later to my talk page with the same Br/Am theory, and I pointed him at the other discussion, and he agreed to disagree, ignoring the evidence.
A huge number of my edits (as opposed to moves) in this space were in articles that obviously never had the attention of anyone who understands typography or style, wikipedia's or otherwise. Tons of spaced hyphens needed to be fixed to unspaced or spaced dashes, or unspaced hyphens, depending on context. This took a lot of work. Similarly, the titles had been made by the same editors and never really looked at for style or otherwise in so many cases. I'll willing to be reverted and discuss when someone disagrees, but there were very few reverts or talk items in this area, and the ones there were were based on the made-up theory of Br/Am differences in hyphenation.
By the way, I'd love some feedback on 2 ft gauge railways in South Africa; my move to Two-foot-gauge railways in South Africa might not be ideal. I have generally avoided hyphenating a dimension with units onto "gauge", but starting the article title with a number seemed like a bad idea, too. There are more like this to be decided, so this would be a good place to start with constructive feedback. Maybe South African railways of 2 ft. gauge or South African railways of two-foot gauge? On the other hand, Two-foot gauge railways in South Africa would appear to be perfectly conventional, too, though the half-hyphenated form strikes me as wrong and unhelpful. Any style guides address such questions?
- British narrow gauge slate railways
See Talk:British narrow gauge slate railways#Requested move 30 December 2016 where we talked about the hyphen extensively. The non-admin closer Bradv said "The result of the move request was: not moved. Consensus to keep this where it is, as some of the railways listed are elsewhere in Britain, and it is felt that there isn't enough content to write separate similar articles for Cornwall, Scotland, and England. (non-admin closure)." This comment about British vs Welsh had no relationship to the other part of the discussion, which was not part of the proposal, to hyphen "narrow-gauge" in that context. Given the apparent consensus to do so, and given the closer's lack of any comment on that question (not to mention that this non-admin doesn't know the difference between no consensus and "consensus to keep this where it is"), I went ahead and did the less controversial hyphen move. This pissed him off and he reverted it, which is fine, then he came to my user page to threaten me about it, and now he's here. Was this reverted bold move really an actionable offense, or suitable for a non-admin to be threatening to have me blocked? Seems to me re-opening a more focused RM discussion there would be the right path now.
- Dashing through the snow
Softlavender has added a complaint above: "Adding hypens and en-dashes makes searching more difficult; people have objected more than once but he doesn't seem to be getting the message." I don't know where this is coming from, and she won't say. I have received no objections to any of the hundred of dash fixes that I've done, that I can recall. They are uncontroversial. Or is she backing up Railfran23 on his problem with Narrow-gauge railway and such? Hard to tell; her answer just re-asserts that objections "are mentioned and alluded to in this thread and are the very reason the thread was opened". Hard to defend against this kind of guilt-by-assertion junk. Dicklyon (talk) 23:04, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- Recent RM discussions I opened
I've opened a number of move discussions when things got controversial. Please review recent ones and see that I'm generally trying to follow WP:BRD, and acting quite sensibly.
- Talk:Huddersfield Line#Requested move 6 January 2017 –
currently open; classic case of specialists wanting over-capitalization; so we talk. Closed in favor of downcasing as I had done before. - Talk:Volcanic Explosivity Index#Requested move 4 January 2017 –
currently open;similar deal. But this was discussing fixing an undiscussed move in 2016 of my case fix from 2014. - Talk:Woodhead line#Requested move 17 December 2016 – closed in favor of my proposal to use lowercase, after I had been reverted.
Few of my British line moves got reverted, and the discussions (e.g. at Woodhead line) reaffirmed that we follow WP:NCCAPS and MOS:CAPS; so I kept at it. On 10 Dec. I also started moving Japanese lines when I noticed a similar cluster of over-capitalization there, but those 7 all got reverted, so I immediately stopped and left it alone; will start discussions there at some point, since sources support lowercase.
- The complainer
Mjroots is the author of the ridiculous proposal at this edit to ignore one of our most longstanding guidelines about title capitalization, so should not be taken too seriously; he wrote there:
- Proposals
- That all railway line articles are housed at the title that has "... Line" in capital letters (Foo Line, Foo Branch Line, Foo Main Line etc).
- That all such articles are moved protected at Admin level.
- Mjroots has since withdrawn the proposal; nobody supported his call to cap all lines or to call for admin move protection. Dicklyon (talk) 21:55, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Carry on
Six days into this mudfest, I'm focusing on uncontroversial dash and comma fixes (avoiding railroads, hyphens, and caps while this is open); moved about 46 articles today, plus 3 technical requests, and editted perhaps 100. I hope that everyone can see that this level of "mass" moves is just a lot of work. And if anyone thinks that any part of it is controversial, I hope they'll just say so. So far, no objections to such moves (since the WP:JR thing settled about a year ago, and MOS:DASH way before then). Dicklyon (talk) 06:48, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
And after all this pile-on, including the new bunch that Softlavender invited "So that we can get more of a consensus of opinions", still nobody has provided anything like a list of moves that they think were controversial. Still nothing but the few I discuss in this section, and perhaps a few more older ones; a 1% effect. If nobody can even point to what the complaint is about, why is it still open? Dicklyon (talk) 00:05, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Several great editors have been indeffed because they irritated other good editors too much and too often, with no commensurate benefit to the encyclopedia (I'm thinking of people who, among other things, did thousands of automated edits to impose their preferred wikitext style). I have not looked at the core issue in this report recently, but I recognize some of the names above and the mere fact that they are pissed off should be enough for a collaborative contributor to back off and let time pass, then use another method rather than trying to impose their strict reading of whatever guideline is being relied on as justification. Johnuniq (talk) 04:24, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- WP:RMis the prescribed method for potentially controversial page moves, though, and Dicklyon is following it. Are you alleging bad faith in his interpretation? If so, you'd better have strong evidence. Getting titles consistently using English correctly (per our own style guide and the major off-WP ones it is based on) with regard to capitalization, hyphenation, etc., is objectively a benefit to the encyclopedia. Your post seems to amount to "People have been indeffed for doing useless and destructive things in a disruptive, thousands-of-automated edits manner, so be warned! You, too, will be indeffed – for doing useful, non-destructive, non-disruptive things, slowly and manually, and following both WP's behavior and style rules, plus using process correctly – just because me and my handful of friends are not getting our way and want to have a tantrum about it, rather than go to WT:MOS or WT:AT and see if consensus will change like we're supposed to." Does not compute. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 14:03, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
Respond below; please don't insert comments inside my comments. Dicklyon (talk) 20:03, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- My proposal is ridiculous? Maybe it is in Dicklyon's eyes. It it doesn't gain acceptance then I won't dwell on it. What I am trying to do it prevent further instances of arguing over page moves, both with that proposal and the one up for discussion here. Regulars here at ANI will appreciate that it is rare occurrence when I start a thread here. I try not to let it get so bad that such action is necessary. The impression I get from Dicklyon is that he is firmly in the WP:IDHT camp. So here we are with the page move ban under discussion. Mjroots (talk) 21:55, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
- I do hear loud and clear that you do not like me changing "Line" to "line" in any article titles, and that you'd prefer all such to be capitalized in titles, whether proper name or not. I just think that proposal, being contrary to WP:NCCAPS, is way off base. And when it got no traction in discussion, you surprised me with an AN/I complaint, which seems equally extreme. As for arguing over page moves, that's what we do routinely at WP:RM; we can do more of it or less of it, but cutting it off by ignoring longstanding titling policy and guidelines seems like a non-starter, doesn't it? Dicklyon (talk) 00:31, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, the Mjroots proposal is nonsensical. The first part ("my topic is magically special and so must be immune to WP's style guidelines") is why we have WP:CONLEVEL policy, otherwise every wikiproject and other clump of editors would declare their pet topics exempt from every guideline and policy.

- Yes, I'm an admin, have been for 7 years. Perhaps you would have preferred that I indeffed you rather than starting this discussion? Believe me, I was close to doing it. As for the locking of the Harz Narrow Gauge Railways article at a title which it had been at since April 2009, if there is any admin who thinks that my action was heavy-handed, please feel free to remove the move protection from the article.

- Hi, Mjroots. IMHO, admins should stick to resolving behavior issues. Cheers!
{{u Checkingfax}} {Talk}08:39, 8 January 2017 (UTC)- @Checkingfax: in part, this is a behaviour issue. Contrary to what Mandruss has claimed above, it is not a personal dispute between myself and Dicklyon. There are many other editors who have challenged his page moves over a number of months. Mjroots (talk) 08:44, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Mjroots: I appreciate the ping, as I would like to correct your mischaracterization of my words. I suspect you're referring my phrase "ideological witch hunt", and witch hunts are not personal disputes between two editors. I don't think I referred to you explicitly or otherwise. ―Mandruss☎ 08:50, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Mandruss: - I may have misinterpreted in the face of comments like "I don't give a damn what you think" from a 10-year editor as referring to myself. I don't think I've ever said that. I do give a damn about editors opinions. If I think they are wrong then I'll engage in reasoned argument without resorting to name-calling, incivility and the like - pretty sure I've managed that here. As I said above, there is a specific problem, and an attempt to find a solution to that problem, which we are discussing here. Mjroots (talk) 09:00, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

- @Mjroots:, your user page notes that one of your hobbies is railways. I think that's awesome, and sorry we collided on some minor style issues in that content area. However, per WP:INVOLVED, probably it would be best if you would refrain from using your admin powers in such cases, like you did to no useful effect on the Harz article; you can call for neutral admin help as well as any other editor can. And to characterize a single revert as move warring is prejudicial; please don't do that. Dicklyon (talk) 22:29, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- And by the way, the premise of your complain here has your involvement build in: "His moves of railway related articles are often controversial and challenged" and is factually incorrect, since only a few of my moves of railway related articles have been challenged. Dicklyon (talk) 22:32, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, Mjroots. IMHO, admins should stick to resolving behavior issues. Cheers!
- Three comments: Mjroots should probably not be crowing about how he was going to indef an editor whom ANI respondents are increasingly defending against Mjroots's less excessive move-ban idea; I don't think it's Dicklyon who was lucky Mjroots did not take such a misguided action, which would have been challenged and questioned even more strongly. I agree that Mjroots seems not exactly administratively neutral about the topic, either. When more and more respondents are telling Mjroots that this is a content dispute not a behavior matter, and evidence (e.g. Dicklyon's actual RM success rate, and low rate of reverted moves) disprove the allegation of disruptive behavior, it's time for Mjroots to just retract; there's clearly not going to be a consensus for sanctions anyway. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 09:52, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

- No word in bold from me, but a word of caution: I think this discussion is at the wrong level. Yes, editors who are focused on the manual of style are often frustrating to deal with. Yes, they do all too frequently drive away people who're doing far more useful and productive work than they do. But I think it's important not to take out that frustration on Dicklyon personally. In my view the way to deal with capitalisation is to start a larger-scale discussion about it where we can vent all this obloquy and then get the WMF to come up with a software solution that accommodates the capitalisation preferences of the user on the client side without affecting the server side. (It'd be far more useful than the ill-thought-out rubbish they waste programmer time on at the moment.)—S Marshall T/C 23:57, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
Extended comment by ClemRutter
Strong comment As I have never sought to be an admin, and rarely if ever touched a railway article I do not usually comment on admin pages. I also have respect for editors real lives and try not to follow up on poor behaviour over Diwali, Hannukah, the 12 days before Epiphany etc. I recognise and appreciate the efforts of the team SMcCandlish/DickLyon in trying to enforce consistency- but despair that they cannot accept when they are wrong. I am enfuriated when superior knowlege of redundant arcane wiki-procedure is used to stifle debate. Talk:Woodhead line#Requested move 17 December 2016 is not closed. The judgement that 5 for and 5 against is consensus cannot stand. Please examine the debate, and see the tactics that were used to enforce downcasting on the name of a line. The title was following MOS:GEOUNITS, end of story. The line was closed after Beeching cuts so it no longer exists, and is now mainly called the Longdendale trail, or the Woodhead Route.
I note that here, the debate appears to have been terminated by an interjection from one of the parties forcing the wrong level of indentation. I was not pinged to inform me that this debate was taking place, finding out in general conversation at the London Wikimeetup. I still do not understand why a fellow admin overrode Redroses edit-warring protection, or why someone slapped an inappropriate frightening looking template on my talk page.User talk:ClemRutter#Just FYI Please view- I have left it untouched as an exhibit.
After the team terminated the debate on Talk:Woodhead line#Requested move 17 December 2016, I opened a new section Talk:Woodhead line#Procedure and what we have learned There are two ways forward, one is sitting in the newspaper archives at Stockport Central Library for several days, or we can refer back to MOS:GEOUNITS and look for precedent and implication. MOS:GEOUNITS (is part of CAPs policy) and I cited Panama Canal for an example of a linear geographical feature, then there is the Kiel Canal, Suez Canal and of course the big ditch itself the Manchester Ship Canal. All these exist have good sources to verify the ultimate word is capitalised. Very little is now being written about modern UK lines, but we did start an article on the Ordsall chord : it had to be capitalised as we got it wrong. All contemporary sources show that it needed to be upcapped Ordsall Chord does follow MOS:GEOUNITS validating the the policy and the providing us with the precedent we need. Even so, if consensus hasn't been reached then right or wrong we revert the spelling to the one used as the article passes from stub to start.
At the point when 'consensus' was redefined to mean what ever it needed to mean- I was fairly convinced that I was a pawn in an edit war, and tonight I fully expect to have my words redefined and some other arcane trivial regulation to be thrown at me.
Can we also include Glossop Line in the list of over-enthusiastic downcapping.Source:/www.gov.uk/government/uploadsThe High Peak and Hope Valley Community Rail Partnership.
The Glossop Line is part of the High Peak and Hope Valley Community Rail Partnership (HP&HVCRP). The CRP was reconstituted in 2008 from a Rural
Transport Partnership that had been in existence for over 10 years.
We will find downcased examples, but above we see the modern government casing for the totality of the line. Also if you made a site visit you will find colloquial usage for the short chord from Dinting Junction to Glossop is often downcased, to distinguish it from the chord from Dinting Junction to Hadfield. Yes both exist, and a local still often get it wrong. It is a gross waste of time, to have to explain over and over again why downcasing is an error.presu
This page is not designed to discuss the a feature of British English, but to decide how to persuade a pair of editors from imposing their strong POVs, against policy and consensus. I am not admin so I cannot take part in that discussion- but I would welcome a solution that encourages them to keep up their efforts on working to improve WP, but prevents them from mistakenly editing the title of any article that is written on a UK subject, or has a Use British English tag. Regretfully, --ClemRutter (talk) 02:13, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- I fully support what you've said - many of the people who have commented here in support of DickLyon are currently attempting to prevent the capitalisation of "Self Loading Rifle" even though it's the proper name and the WP:COMMONNAME of the British Army's former main service rifle. It's purely based on a misunderstanding of military nomenclature, there's no bad faith involved, but the general unwillingness to listen to people who are more well informed on the subject matter is part of a pattern with DickLyon - and yes, I'm still annoyed about him saying "What are you smoking?" and then saying it was just a joke when called up on his incivility. Exemplo347 (talk) 08:51, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- I haven't been involved at L1A1 self-loading rifle, but I have now looked at it. It's an open RM and Dicklyon is participating in the RM process as he is supposed to do. He has not moved that article. If the consensus goes against him, I have no doubt he will defer to it. If it goes against you, I expect the same from you. There is no Wikipedia policy or guideline that I'm aware of that requires editors to "listen to people who are more well informed on the subject matter". So Dicklyon is conforming to process and you are inventing your own rules of Wikipedia decision-making. I submit that any disruption there is yours and anybody's who supports that sort of reasoning. It seems to me that a large part of this conflict results from editors whose voice volume far exceeds their knowledge of how Wikipedia works. And some all too quick to be highly offended about innocuous comments like "What are you smoking?". It is all becoming very clear. ―Mandruss ☎ 09:08, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- [Sorry this is long and detailed, but the mega-post it responds to covered a lot of ground.]@ClumRutter: You must not care much about the capitalization after all, since I just had to create that redirect to Longdendale Trail to fix your redlink. Anyway, If it's now "mainly called" that, then Woodhead line should be moved to that title, per WP:COMMONNAME policy, and the scope adjusted to focus on its modern use as other than a railway line, with the useless micro-stub of content at Longdendale Trail merged in. Why hasn't this been done? Could it because that would raise territorial hackles at a wikiproject that is unusually proprietary, and on a topic that is renowned for attracting obsessives' attention? Even if it's just a temporary oversight, aren't you just arguing heatedly but pointlessly about a moot matter and, worse, also helping push highly personalized drama-mongering about it at WP's kangaroo court, in a "case" explicitly intended to drive away another editor? (Note above that the admin who lodged this ANI said he did so in lieu of personally indefinitely blocking Dicklyon from WP entirely). So, pray tell, what is your justification for this, especially given that you decry style disputation as something that drives away editors? Is it okay to drive away editors as long as they're ones you personally find inconvenient?
"We will find downcased examples ...
– That's the end of the matter right there, really. If RS are not consistent on the matter, do not use the Special Capitalization or other excessive stylization. This is a general rule found at MOS:CAPS, MOS:TM, and elsewhere, and the same basic principle can also be found in WP:COMMONNAME. You continued:"... but above we see the modern government casing"
– So what? See WP:OFFICIALNAME. WP is not written in "Official UK Government Style". Governmental writing has a very strong tendency to capitalize virtually everything on which it focuses, even briefly (especially if there's anything governmental about that itself, e.g. a part of a transit system), and it does this explicitly as a form of emphasis, not because any linguists or any style manuals aside from the government's own would agree it made sense. First rule of MOS:CAPS: Do not capitalize as a form of emphasis.Moving on, your belief that something is a proper noun does not make it one just because you keep repeating it in the face of evidence to contrary. Dicklyon (and I) have no trouble admitting when RMs do not go our way. We take that in stride and move on to other cleanup. Rather, it is insular camps like various transit-related projects who continue to fight article by article by article against the exact same types of moves even after RM precedent turns against them again and again. (See WP:TE.) When a proponent of one MOS segment (e.g. GEOUNITS at MOS:CAPS) is arguing against others who cite much more of MOS:CAPS (with support from MOS:TM and several others, including non-MoS guidelines like WP:NCCAPS), and that editor is then trying to make his opponents out to be "infuriating" and "despair"-inducing MoS obsessives, that person very badly needs to read WP:KETTLE and find something else to do here.
BTW, you are not interpreting GEOUNITS correctly, and I would know since I wrote most of it. Woodhead line is none of an: institution, organization, or other legal entity; nor city, county, country, or other political or geographical unit. It's a former strip of train track, that was the property of various entities of the first sort, and ran between and through entities of the latter sort. And this was already clearly explained, repeatedly, at the RM. So why are you playing WP:ICANTHEARYOU about it here?The fact of the matter is that these routine MOS:CAPS cleanup moves are opposed by no one but tiny clusters of one-topic-focused editors who persist, sometimes for years, in trying to mimic styles they find in specialist publications or on "official" signage instead of writing in encyclopedic style for a broad audience. It is a style that minimizes capitalization (not just because MoS says so but because the off-WP mainstream style guides MoS is based on also do the same, thus mainstream, general-audience publications do so – a real-world, average-user expectation of how English works, across all dialects and formal registers). The misguided belief that wikiprojects can declare themselves exempt from site-wide guidelines and policies on a random-preference whim is where the MoS- and WP:AT-related disruption comes from in this and in a high percentage of other instances. It's time for that sort of "our topic is a unique snowflake, so no general rule can ever apply to it" special pleading to come to an end. It wastes a tremendous amount of editorial energy, for no good reason and with no good result. See also MOS:FAQ#SPECIALIZED.
No one would dare try this approach with any other guideline, and it needs to stop with this one. Can you imagine someone, with a straight face, trying to convince us that WP:FRINGE did not apply to feng shui because feng shui is just different and has its own standards? That WP:SAL applies to all lists except lists about cheese? That MOS:TM doesn't apply to heavy metal music because using all-caps, decorative fonts, and fake umlauts are "normal" in metal magazines? That WikiProject Anthropology's templates are immune to WP:TMP? Anyone notice that any time something like this comes up at ArbCom, the result is that wikiprojects are told, yet again, that WP:CONLEVEL policy really does pertain to them too and really is about their behavior (e.g. in WP:ARBINFOBOX, etc.)? Anyone notice that the last time a wikiproject decided guidelines didn't apply to them and they could make up their own rules and require other editors to comply, the RfC turned 40 to 15 against them (with almost all of the 15 being participants in that project, i.e. they got near-zero external support, plus did not even get much support from their own fellows in the same wikiproject)?
I have to wonder just what the hell it takes before it sinks in that WP has its own style manual, title policy, and naming conventions (and history of precedent in working out their interaction). How many chest-beating, territorial threat displays have to have cold water dumped on them before it is finally understood that even if you refuse to write to conform to WP's style, other editors are permitted to and will fix the noncompliance later? If you submitted an article to Nature or The New York Times, you would conform to their style guide, or an editor there would bring it into conformance before publication. WP is no different, other than we're volunteers here with no deadline, so the compliance often comes along later.
Actually, the article itself suggests why there's this fight-to-the-death push to capitalize in this case: "The Woodhead line has achieved a cult status with collectors of railway memorabilia." It's a fandom matter, i.e. yet another WP:SSF. And now you're here trying to WP:CANVASS people into re-litigating that just-closed RM at a new thread you opened immediately under it? Seriously? At ANI itself? If you think the closer erred, take it to WP:MR, the prescribed process for challenging RM closes. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 09:52, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- [Sorry this is long and detailed, but the mega-post it responds to covered a lot of ground.]@ClumRutter: You must not care much about the capitalization after all, since I just had to create that redirect to Longdendale Trail to fix your redlink. Anyway, If it's now "mainly called" that, then Woodhead line should be moved to that title, per WP:COMMONNAME policy, and the scope adjusted to focus on its modern use as other than a railway line, with the useless micro-stub of content at Longdendale Trail merged in. Why hasn't this been done? Could it because that would raise territorial hackles at a wikiproject that is unusually proprietary, and on a topic that is renowned for attracting obsessives' attention? Even if it's just a temporary oversight, aren't you just arguing heatedly but pointlessly about a moot matter and, worse, also helping push highly personalized drama-mongering about it at WP's kangaroo court, in a "case" explicitly intended to drive away another editor? (Note above that the admin who lodged this ANI said he did so in lieu of personally indefinitely blocking Dicklyon from WP entirely). So, pray tell, what is your justification for this, especially given that you decry style disputation as something that drives away editors? Is it okay to drive away editors as long as they're ones you personally find inconvenient?
- I have to wonder just what the hell it takes before it sinks in that WP has its own style manual, title policy, and naming conventions...
- I have to wonder when it will sink in that the MOS is a guideline and not a religious doctrine and that people like you and Dicklyon aren't its High Priests and Defenders of the Faith? --CaltonTalk 10:06, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- See WP:POLICY. Any time you believe you have a WP:IAR case to make against the applicability of any guideline (or policy for that matter), you are welcome to do so, and it's up to the consensus of the editing community whether you are making a legitimate IAR claim (i.e., that following the rule – whether it be in a page with {{Policy}}, {{Guideline}}, or whatever on it – will interfere with making an objective improvement to the encyclopedia). It is no accident that IAR is rarely invoked correctly or successfully. IAR does not mean "ignore any rule I don't like or find inconvenient for subjective reasons." — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 07:42, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- No, WP:POLICY applies to policies. Guidelines are not policies, and those who try to enforce them as such are mistaken, and they are the genesis of a great deal of disruption. There are rules and there are rules. Policies are the latter, and must be obeyed unless there's a damn good WP:IAR reason not to. The former are guildelines, which are suggestions as to the best practices on Wikipedia, but can be overridden whenever there is a good reason to do so. The failure to understand the differences between guidelines and policies is a major cause of musinderstanding and disuption, and it's high time that admins start to block editors who attempt to enforce MOS guidelines as if they were mandatory, which they are not. Guidelines have consensus, but it is consensus to be a guideline, not to be a mandatory policy. Beyond My Ken (talk) 08:50, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- As the shortcut goes to Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines, I'm pretty sure it's not just about policies. Best practices are best practices. Dicklyon (talk) 04:46, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Guidelines may be overridden with a "good reason", while policies require a "damn good reason"? I'll resist the temptation to inquire about the differences, fascinating and nuanced as they must be. A "good reason" is still necessary. Guidelines are the default position, and users wishing to ignore them bear the burden of proof. "Oh, that's just a guideline" is not a good reason. "Our WikiProject wants it this way" is not a good reason. "I disagree with/don't care about the MoS" is not a good reason. Joefromrandb (talk) 05:22, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
- Guidelines describe things that are generally the case, but have many exceptions and/or frequently require interpretation about when an how to correctly apply them. It will sometimes be obvious why a guideline doesn't apply in a particular instance, at other times an explanation is needed but it will rarely require lengthy discussion or referenced burden of proof. For example using the official name of a subject as the title rather than the common name when the common name is ambiguous (e.g. I found the other day that the article about the textile design company commonly known as "Laura Ashley" is at Laura Ashley plc (rather than Laura Ashely (company) or similar) to disambiguate it from Laura Ashely which is about a person). Policies on the other hand will only rarely have exceptions not defined in the policy, and those exceptions need to be individually justified when they occur. For example the WP:Image use policy#Privacy rights tells us not to use photographs of people taken where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy but consent was not obtained, this would need a very strong reasons to disregard and would need to be specifically justified - the only example I can think of off the top of my head where this might happen is if the photograph itself is notable in some way and the subject of sourced discussion in the article (maybe it's a photograph that proved a politician was spying for another country). The entire manual of style falls into the category of "guidelines" and must not be blindly enforced as exceptions will not always be obvious to a bot or script.

Threats from SMcCandlish
| There were no threats made; SMcCandish posted standard WP:AC/DS templates on Andy Dingley's and Exemplo347's talk pages with explanations provided. If editors wish to discuss the wording and purpose of the DS templates, WP:ARCA is over there. I advise all editors to drop this particular WP:STICK.

Having failed to make any case as to why WP should ignore sourced external realities in favour of simplistic styleguides, SMcCandlish ☺ is now resorting to threats and intimidation on behalf of ARBCOM. Has anyone else had one of these little billet doux? User_talk:Andy_Dingley#You_should_probably_be_aware_of_this
Of course I still stand by every word that I wrote here re DickLyon (and see the mess at Talk:L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle), although I admit I was mistaken in having thought that this ANI thread had been archived by now. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:19, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, I had one of those and I treated it with the contempt it deserves, as I concluded that it was incorrectly posted to my page - L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle was not and is not subject to any ArbCom sanctions, and the edit he referred to was in fact carried out by someone else. Very sloppy. Exemplo347 (talk) 15:36, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- As I said to both of you: a) the template is not a "threat", it's a notice of WP:AC/DS applicability to a particular topic; b) ArbCom requires the notice to be delivered to parties who do not appear to be aware of the DS in question; c) we are not permitted to modify the wording of the notice; d) any editor may deliver it, not just admins, because it's simply a notice, and nothing more; e) the scope is "the English Wikipedia's Manual of Style and article titles policy, broadly construed", not a particular article like a gun or railway article. If, like me, you find the wording of the notices poor and unnecessarily menacing, and/or find that the entire notification process is a bunch of unnecessary WP:BUREAUCRACY, I've been saying this for years, and have (again) raised a thread about these problems at WT:ARBCOM, where you are welcome to comment. @Exemplo347: Please do not play WP:ICANTHEARYOU; it's already been explained to you that the edit in question was your own comment, not that of the intervening editor. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 16:18, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- There was a diff confusion about who unhatted your comment. There was no confusion whatsoever about the fact that you made the comment, which personalized a style dispute uncivilly. And it doesn't matter because the point of the template is to notify you of the DS scope, not to object to a particular comment. You have so been notified, whether you accept that or not. As has also already been explained to you. Please actually read what is posted to your talk page, instead of just reacting to the fact that someone dared to post there. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 16:48, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

- Since Arbcom's DS notices are clearly not threats... Bullshit. Invoking official authority in direct response to comments about oneself can -- and in this case, I think are -- intended to have a chilling effect. SMcCandlish left one of those little gems on my User Talk page for a comment I made to him on this very page, just above. This is not someone doing due diligence, this is someone using cheap passive-aggressive rhetorical tactics to "win" an argument. --Calton Talk 11:14, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Not, in fact, 'bullshit.' The notice is perfectly clear and not a threat (as indeed, its very text makes plain). If however you think it is being misused, misapplied, or wielded as a weapon or means of editorial suppression then you are on the right page and a new thread awaits you. If you take issue with the actual wording of the notice, then WP:ARCA is your next port of call. Cheers, O Fortuna!...Imperatrix mundi. 11:20, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Nope, complete and 100% bullshit, your attempts at making excuses for SMcCandlish (like your closing the above) notwithstanding.
- If you take issue with the actual wording of the notice... Not even close to the issue, as should be clear from simple reading, so thanks for trying to obfuscate things.
- ... a new thread awaits you. Genius, this IS the thread, despite (again) your attempts at making excuses for SMcCandlish (like your closing the above) notwithstanding.
