[edit] Yuber Violation of RfAr

In keeping with Yuber (talkcontribslogsblock userblock log) RfAr, Yuber is enjoined from being disruptive or engaging in revert wars.

Daniel Pipes is considered by many people to be an authoritative source on middle eastern and Islamic Affairs and is cited in several wikipedia articles with out any controversy. This extlink in question links to article by DP about the use of Nikah as front for sex tourism by wealthy arabs who make temporary marriages to poor muslim girls for money in india and elsewhere. After the marriage is consumated they return back to thier home countries. Yuber has previously engaged in editwars over the inclusion of links to articles by Daniel Pipes. These links were retained by general concensus on many other articles.

In the opinion of ArbCom Member Jayjg [11]:

It certainly looks like a violation of his Arbitration ruling to me, but perhaps you should get it clarified with the Arbitrators who ruled on it. Jayjg (talk) 23:35, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

I therefore humbly request enforcement of the RfAr, specifically I request.

  1. Under Enforcment section 1, that the template "Yuber Banned" be added to nikah as Yubers behavior on that article is not helpful or contructive.
  1. That the anon IP's previously editing the article by reverts be check as possible instance of Yuber's violating the No Sockpuppets portion of his RfAr.

Klonimus 01:03, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

I'd like to see you prove that people who removed the same link I have removed are somehow my "sockpuppets". Several people have disagreed with your inclusion of that irrelevant link and they are most assuredly not my sockpuppets. Also, please do not try and claim that I have not discussed my removal of the link. Yuber(talk) 01:38, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
Yube, cmon get serious. You started a reverting before you even said anything on the talk page. And there is as of yet no concenus not to have that link. It seems that even months after Jizya you still refuse to at all comply to any standard of wikibehavior. Klonimus 08:49, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
I tried reverting the POV addition, but someone beat me to it. Yuber is/was not the only one who saw that addition as POV motivated anti-islamic trash --Irishpunktom\talk 16:33, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
" In the opinion of ArbCom Member Jayjg " Was Jayg one of the Arb comittee who passed judgement on this case? If I recall he is one of the people who used to get involved in long an internecine edit wars with the guy and was actually censured by the arb comittee for this. I'm not sure that "appeals to authority" are good here. Wrong authority. Unbehagen 13:20, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Islam in the United States

I recently blocked two IPs, 24.7.210.91 (talk • contribs) and 70.156.143.25 (talk • contribs) for edit warring on Islam in the United States (talk · history · watch). I also semi-protected the article, and soon after Yuber (talk • contribs) and CltFn (talk • contribs) started editing the article, making exactly the same edits as the IPs. Not familiar with the details of this Arb, so I'll just note that here. --bainer (talk) 02:21, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] user:Yuber on Islamic extremist terrorism

Yuber as per the terms of his arbitration, can be banned from any islam-related article on which he is disruptive or participates in revert wars.

From the history page of Islamic extremist terrorism: [12] [13] [14]

Also from the user's own contributions history, he appears to have been stalking and warring with User:CltFn on several pages: [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26]

There are also a number of instances involving another user User:Mistress_Selina_Kyle but for the sake of brevity I am keeping this complaint to one; the history can easily be seen on Yuber's contributions list.

I believe this is unhelpful. I am formally requesting Yuber be banned from Islamic extremist terrorism. I reserve the right to file a formal request for more stringent restrictions should he continue to edit war elsewhere. Queeran 02:37, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User Aucaman and Zionist Extremist Rhetoric

Dear admin, User:Aucaman chronically participates in repeatedly violating the 3rr policy, placing numerous dispute tags on articles, [unstoppable] possible sneaky vandalism, repeated violation of the personal attack policy by referring to multiple users as `racist` and other, going against the over-whelming consensus, refusing to compromise, and single-handedly hijacking this and two more articles. He has been engaged in a systematic campaign of misinformation, maliciously editing/disputing Persian people, pushing his POV, ignoring the majority consensus and authoritative sources, trying to establish new 'facts" based on his own personal assumptions, political beliefs, and racist comments. [27] He also repeatedly engages in racially-motivated personal attacks and possibly vandalizes the Persian people article which has resulted in the protection of page. Seemingly, he has single-handedly disrupted the integrity of the page in question, and perhaps other articles too. Furthermore, he is a chronic 3RR violator, but also violates other wikipedia rules by vandalizing and then removing warnings from his talk-page. [28] Would you please take a look at this issue and help us clean up the Persian people page? Please take a look at ( Talk:Persian people & Mediation/Persian_people ). ThanksZmmz 04:58, 3 March 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Onefortyone

User:Onefortyone has made edits in violation of his arbcom ruling at Talk:Elvis Presley#Interesting sources concerning Elvis's alleged bisexuality. The specific policies he is violating are pretty much every point noted at Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Onefortyone#Findings of fact- He continues to allege that Elvis is Gay without providing concrete, verifiable sources; he arbitrarily cites authors who have written books about Elvis without providing page numbers for verification, and makes claims such as "Elvis's promiscuity masked latent homosexuality". I don't know if he actually thinks these are valid sources or if he is being intentionally disruptive, and I no longer care. He is clearly in violation of his RFA. --DDG 20:36, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

I have blocked him for 24 hours. --DDG 20:44, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
I do not think that this was necessary, as I only provided additional sources related to the topic on the discussion page. Interestingly, Ted Wilkes had not been blocked, although he repeatedly called me a "convicted liar", which is certainly a personal attack. Onefortyone 05:06, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kehrli

User:Kehrli is displaying unrelenting advocacy and original research. Note particularly his user page which is a diatribe against a notation accepted by IUPAC. His main user page represents original research. He has also been pushing his ideas on the page m/z misconception which has been deleted. Recently he has been pushing his ideas on the mass-to-charge ratio page. This page was at one point pure POV and was nearly identical to his user page. He has learned to be more slick recently with all of the criticism he has recieved, including from mediators. He, however, continues to push his ideas systematically and patiently disrupting the ability of other editors to improve articles. Mediation has failed as he ignores the criticism that shuts him completely down from pushing his ideas.
