[edit] This edit
Thanks! He's being an ass. I've put him up for blocking because of his username, so he won't be a problem for much longer! Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 22:29, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- No probs. I spotted that he was an ass when he described your username as "absolutely ridiculous". Personally I think it's the best one on here; and certainly more creative than mine! ;-) B1atv 22:32, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- Maybe, maybe. It's more cumbersome, sadly. You're being very civil with him, well done! More than i would do, sadly! Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 22:41, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Cut and paste moves
Please do not make cut and paste moves as you did to Bescot Stadium as this loses the page's history. If you wish to move an article, please use the Move tag at the top of the page. If this does not work, please do a WP:RM. I should also note that a discussion on WikiProject Football came to the conclusion that stadium articles should be located at their traditional name rather than a sponsor name (where one exists). Thanks, пﮟოьεԻ 57 15:02, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- The move of that page took place over a month ago and I now understand the way pages should be moved. I've looked for the wikiproject football discussion you talk about it but can't find it. Such a "policy" should not be agreed by only a wikiproject as it contradicts the wider Wikipedia naming policy and should be discussed with the wider Wikipedia community. Supporters of teams playing Walsall will know from their tickets, their own club website and the media that Walsall play at the Banks's Stadium. They will therefore look for Banks's Stadium, not Bescot Stadium. In accordance with Wikipedia's naming policy the article should therefore be called Banks's Stadium. I'd be grateful for you further thoughts. B1atv 17:43, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- It doesn't contradict a naming policy - see WP:COMMONNAME. Bank's Stadium gets only 16 hits on google - compare that to 40,000 for Bescot Stadium. It seems very few people use the sponsored name. Personally I don't believe that many fans use the sponsored name - the ground has been known for years by its proper name. пﮟოьεԻ 57 20:56, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Google is not an accepted source on Wikipedia. And, as I have said on the main discussion, Google includes all the pages created when the stadium was the Bescot Stadium as well as those now it is the Banks's Stadium - and besides, I get 727 hits for "Banks's Stadium". When you say "The ground has been known for years by its proper name" (my emphasis), you are wrong. The proper name, as of today, is the Banks's Stadium. It is not for you or I to decide what it is called, the people who own the stadium have decided. See Walsall Council's list of [approved venues for civil partnerships], or the same council's [news story about a climate change conference]. You can argue all you like, the FACT is, the VERIFIABLE FACT, is that the stadium is now called the Banks's Stadium, whether you like it or not. B1atv 06:26, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- The reason you got so few hits on Google is that you spelt it incorrectly - "Banks's Stadium", not "Banks' Stadium". B1atv 06:27, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- I removed the POV tag because you seem to be the only person with a problem. Please also read the thread at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Football#Stadium_names - no-one is backing you up on this issue. пﮟოьεԻ 57 09:01, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Replied on your talk page. B1atv 09:07, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- (a) Do not use misleading edit summaries and (b) do not "warn" users for vandalism when it is a content dispute. пﮟოьεԻ 57 09:08, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- I do not use misleading edit summaries; and the constant removal of templates turns pre-existing content dispute into the realms of vandalism. Stop telling other people what they can and can't do and start looking at your own actions. B1atv 09:10, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Please stop your illegitimate warnings now, or I will take it to WP:AN/I. Thanks, пﮟოьεԻ 57 09:15, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Seriously, grow up. You are the one constantly reverting. Why do you not accept the fact that the discussions clearly ended in favour of keeping non-sponsor names? пﮟოьεԻ 57 09:20, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- 1. Stop being abusive
- 2. The discussion isn't over - I have told you on that discussion that I am seeking wider community consensus
- 3. You should not revert warning templates on articles where it is your edit which raised the concerns
- 4. I told you last week that I would cease discussion of this issue with you because it was getting over heated and circular in nature and that I would seek the best way of getting wider community consensus yet you chose to bring your abusive discussion back
- 5. I had intended to leave the discussion for a few days of cooling and then flag it up in the appropriate forum for wider community consensus but your actions this morning means I have no choice but to report you to the administrators for breach of the 3RR - and removing warnings from your userpage does not remove them; they remain in your edit history for administrators to review.
- 6. I don't care two figs whether "sponsor's names" are used over "non-sponsor's names" - I care that the real, verifiable, factual names are used as per wikipedia policies. Bescot Stadium no longer exists. It is called the Banks's Stadium. Your POV against sponsors is clouding your judgement on a clear, factual, verifiable statement. This is my last word to you as I am putting this into the hands of administrators and I refuse to rise to your abusive bait. B1atv 09:27, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Where are you intending to bring this up? You've already brought it up at WikiProject Football. Are you going to try elsewhere because you didn't get the result you wanted? Reporting me for breaking 3RR is a bit pointless when I have not made more than 3 reversions, and I also know that those warnings remain in my edit history (I am an admin myself, so am aware of things like that). Nevertheless, I would welcome the input of an independent admin to stop this. пﮟოьεԻ 57 09:33, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

(undent)Just wanted to let you know, B1atv, that I've replied to the conversation that you were involved in, on No.57's talk page (in case you aren't watching it) SQLQuery me! 21:03, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Redirect of Anvil records
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Anvil records, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Anvil records is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Anvil records, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

- I fully endorse this deletion. It was me who prodded "Anvil Recording Co" after finding no reliable sources to substantiate notability. This page (Anvil Records) was created automatically by a page move to correct name of the company. B1atv 06:56, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Palm Pictures edit identified as vandalism
Hi, I notice you nuked one of my external links from the palm pictures article which mentioned that they were promoting themselves via imeem.com and had premiered a movie on the site prior to the US theatrical release. Here's the news article that mentions this factoid - http://mashable.com/2007/06/25/imeem-palm-pictures/ - I don't get how that can be considered vandalism since it's a pretty big deal for a movie studio to premier an award winning movie on a free website prior to its theatrical release. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hedkandee (talk • contribs) 15:59, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
