[edit] Another personal attack

It's the same user who was blocked a few days ago.[1] I don't know what your opinion is on this, but I think if someone has been blocked once for personal attacks and they continue without much care they should be blocked again without much warning. AucamanTalk 08:35, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi InShaneee, don't know if you noticed, but this user 72.57.230.179 (talk · contribs) seems to be the same as earlier 69.196.139.250 (talk · contribs) and Manik666 (talk · contribs), possibly also 201.252.133.159 (talk · contribs). I'm considering bringing his case into the current arbcom proceedings, as his behaviour is so characteristic of the general climate of aggression and intimidation we've been seeing. Could you give me your opinion? (Or, if you like, submit a statement about him yourself, as you did with Ahwaz?) Thanks, Lukas (T.|@) 09:57, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD

Hey, what do you think about Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Heavy metal in Islamic countries? I think the idea behind the article is a POV. There is no shared scene, however users of this "Metal wikiproject" are backing eachother up and I don't know how I can get some neutral users to vote there? -- - K a s h Talk | email 19:20, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

The problem is that this gang started going around nominating e.g. Metal in Iran and Pakistan, etc for AfD, when they didn't succeed, some of those articles got merged with e.g. Black Metal. Which was just riduculous to have e.g. Pakistani Black Metal on the original page. Then they decided to remove that, and make a new article, and redirect e.g. Iranian metal to there. It's just really un-necessary, and people who are voting are making it all as if its Me against the world! have a look! -- - K a s h Talk | email 19:27, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
Is it civil to refer to users as a "gang"?[2]--210.211.234.53 19:35, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
Heh. I don't use that word often, in Persian sometimes we use it to refer to groups. So it just came out. -- - K a s h Talk | email 19:48, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question about your "Warnings" that you put on my talk page

I quote... "Please do not remove warnings put on your talk page by other users. They are there for a reason, and removing them could be considered vandalism. --InShaneee 22:02, 23 April 2006 (UTC)"

Please show wiki policy that say I may not edit my talk page as I fit. If I answer the task I can edit the page. Thank you for your time. [[[User:Simonapro|Simonapro]] 22:09, 23 April 2006 (UTC)]

One more thing... Can I censor a discussion page to remove other people's discussions? Because that is exactly what Viriditas is doing on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Heaven%27s_Stairway#Ownership_of_Overgrow.com_web_site_in_dispute

[edit] Personal Attacks Warning

Regarding edits such as [[3]], [[4]], [[5]], and [[6]]: These are considered personal attacks and will not be tolerated. Wikipedia is a friendly environment and this type of behaviour is unacceptable. Please refrain from it in the future. Yofoxyman 03:00, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Inshanee,

I dont usually report people, but this one has gone too far and is irking me:

User:Timothy Usher is calling me an "anti-semitic" (on Talk:Iran-Iraq War) just because I provided American and Israeli sources stating that Israel supported Iran in the war against Iraq. I think that's a clear attempt of abusing WP to slaner people.

Thanx.--Zereshk 17:24, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User talk:MSTCrow

What a charmer. Jkelly 01:32, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, it's a reminder to me to keep things in perspective. That said, I do wish that there were a more efficient way to rid the project of users who flat-out disagree with WP:CIVIL. One could spend a lifetime writing up ArbCom cases and never empty the bucket. Jkelly 01:46, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
InShaneee, I don't want to get into any sort of "wheel war," but I do think that a 48-hour block is a bit long for what is, after all, a fairly mild personal attack. Would you consider shortening it? ➥the Epopt 02:29, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] question

I was wondering if there was any way to find out why the Vernon Buckley pages and The Maytones pages were deleted thanks. I dont see how they could be considered non-notable. See here. [[7]] Could you maybe consider these for undeletion? Please reply on my discussion page. Thanks a bunch. Chinamanjoe 03:28, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

They are clearly notable. Check out this long article on all music: [8] Chinamanjoe 03:36, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Hi InShaneee (thanks for blocking that one vandal, by the way) and sorry for butting in guys. Chinaman left a message on my talk page about this and I was wondering if you nominated the article for deletion?--Primetime 03:40, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
It wasn't. Chinamanjoe 03:46, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
  • [9]Hmm. I would probably restore it and nominate it for deletion so as to get community views on the application of policy in this case. It can also give Chinamanjoe some time to dig up some info on notability for the bands.--Primetime 03:47, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

- ::That wouldn't be particularly hard considering a simple google search clearly shows they were popular enough to have a bunch of articles written about them in reputable sources. Chinamanjoe 03:55, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

    • [10] I can't recreate the article because I'm not an administrator. I won't push the issue, though (I didn't even write it). Chinamanjoe, if you would like to have the article restored, nominate it on Wikipedia:Deletion Review or do as InShaneee just recommended and list it on Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion.--Primetime 03:54, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image protection

Greetings,

User:Pecher insists on marking the following two images for deletion, despite their PD status, which I have explained to him/her.

Image:Kalimi mashrutiat.JPG

Image:Kalimi iran.JPG

Would you please see to it that he/she does not delete the images? Pecher is currently engaged in an edit war with several users on the Persian Jews article.

Thank You.--Zereshk 15:56, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

I have provided the info in Farsi. It was scanned from a hard copy of the picture that I edited and uploaded myself.--Zereshk 16:05, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
I have provided a second source. Now I hope you will help out with this.--Zereshk 16:18, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
I provided a third source from the Library of Congress. The images are from media (newspapers) that no longer exist. If I translated the names, you couldnt do a search on them, the names all appear in Farsi format. That is why the LOC does not translate the names either, it only provides transliterations.
Regardless, I'm hoping that 3 sources is enough. It's overkill if you ask me. Point is: the images can be verified to exist. Pecher just wants to get rid of these images for POV reasons.
Thanx again.--Zereshk 16:26, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Username

Hey I changed my username, is it possible for you to block my old username (perhaps forever) until I would like to use it again? old username: User:Kashk, Thanks -- - K a s h Talk | email 19:09, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

OK.. By the way did you ever get my email regarding the Persian anon comment? You never responded -- - K a s h Talk | email 20:02, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
