[edit] Prowikipedians

Prowikipedians has been harassing and contacting other users regarding the Suicide Methods talk page. Also, I just saw WHY you had taken action. I knew he/she had left a legal message on my talk page, but to go behind my back and try to get me banned for having a different opinion is just wrong. This is just going to continue, directly or indirectly, and I'd like to know what action can be taken. For starters the entire talk page on the subject needs cleared, as it's just a bitter argument. Coolgamer (talk) 18:41, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Please keep in mind that the law I referred was a reference. ONLY. I am not trying to ban Coolgamer for the sake because he has a different opinion than mines. And the reference on "this is going to continue" is WRONG. I haven't been editing on that talk page recently. Plus, you can not just state that "starters" do not know what to do. If this were a different article, ie President Bush, stating that "he favors this" more than "this" while another source tells the opposite, then that be different. The article on Suicide methods is a "controversial issue." Which is why I have questioned why Wikipedia doesn't have a "murder methods" article. And again, the reason why I stated that Wikipedia should take off that article was more primarily concerned if Wikipedia was being cited as a number one source if something like that had happened, leaving Wikipedia publicized by the media and with heavy criticisms from the international community, which may actually bring down the Wikipedian system had something like that happened.

The talk page you are talking about hasn't been edited since 28 May 2008, date of law reference removal. Prowikipedians (talk) 03:33, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
Quit posting vague threats on my talk page. Coolgamer (talk) 19:17, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
These aren't even vague threats. And keep in mind that I haven't been following up on you until recently you replied. I have this, this and this to edit/add information. Prowikipedians (talk) 07:47, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I think the issue can just fade away if everyone lets it. We can revisit this if the problem comes up again, but let's hope it doesn't come to that. For now, I think the problem is solved. No harm was done, so there's no need to post any more replies to this discussion. Kafziel Complaint Department 08:54, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User talk:Anoshirawan

I wish to discuss the matter of the indef block with User talk:Anoshirawan and request that the talk page be unprotected. -- Ned Scott 06:51, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

I think there's been a reasonable amount of input since last August, from Number 57, Ronnotel, Jossi, Spartaz, MastCell, Toddst1, Jayron32, Sandstein, FisherQueen, and myself. Nothing but more edit warring and disruption after each of the previous seven blocks, and denial of any wrongdoing in each of the five unblock requests. Page protection is specifically warranted in the case of abusing the unblock tag, and I don't see anything to say the abuse wouldn't continue. You're welcome to put in a request or start an RFC, but I don't think it's worth your time. Kafziel Complaint Department 07:05, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh. In that case might I recommend a small summary regarding the block. I tried to search ANI's archives for the username and I checked his most recent contribs, and was very confused that they were suddenly indef blocked. I'll probably propose this to Toddst1, but even in light of your comment here, I'm surprised something like a topical ban wasn't tried first. -- Ned Scott 07:11, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
Doesn't seem very sudden to me; he was blocked for 24h, then 72, then another 72, then a week, then another 72, then another week, then a month, and now indef. That's a whole lot of chances. After that he abused the unblock template, and is currently using an anonymous IP[1] to get around the block. It's a single-purpose account; a topical ban wouldn't work. I've never had any interaction with this user other than reviewing one of his unblock requests, but I took a very extensive look at his contribs when he was first reported (so extensive that someone else blocked him before I finished) and I see nothing that would indicate any of the earlier blocks had the slightest effect at all. In fact, in one of his unblock requests, he says that a month-long block would be fine... because a month-long block doesn't mean anything to him. That tells me the only solution is an indef block.

[edit] Your User Page

Under your user page (User:Kafziel), entitled "About Me," your statement "My userpage has been vandalized a bunch of times. This one is my favorite," redirects to here with the following statement:

The database did not find the text of a page that it should have found, named "User:Kafziel (Diff: 84064486, 84129942)".
This might be because no page has yet been created with this name, in which case you can start it by clicking the "edit this page" link.
If it is a recently changed page, trying again in a minute or two will usually work. Alternatively, you may have followed an outdated diff or history link to a page that has been deleted. If this revision has been deleted, an explanation may be found in the deletion log for "User:Kafziel".
Revisions that contain personal information disclosed without permission may have been permanently removed.
If none of the above is the case, you may have found a bug in the software. Please report this using the procedure given at Wikipedia:Bug reports, making note of the URL.

I think that you may want to edit your own talk page. I prefer not to fix the edit, unless you are open to do so. Prowikipedians (talk) 08:43, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 3RR: Sorry, Kafziel, I didn't know

Sorry, I am new to Wikipedia and I didn't know anything on the 3 revert rule. Anyway, I can't be accused of anything for trying to put an NPOV warning on an article that is not neutral, as you can see in this discussion page:

Talk:Re-assertion of British sovereignty of the Falkland Islands (1833)

The whole talk page is devoted to discuss whether the article is neutral or not, and that is a strong evidence of the lack of neutrality in the article.

I can't be accused either for correcting a very obvious error, as you can see in this talk:

Talk:Monroe Doctrine#Accused of vandalism for correcting an evident error: The possession of an existing European power, Britain (1833), DID NOT PREDATE the Doctrine

[edit] Article

Ok. I understand that. Consider deleting Blue & Gold article. Does not have THIRD-PARTY SOURCES. 210.64.233.207 (talk) 10:41, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

That page has been tagged to be merged since April. It's done. Kafziel Complaint Department 17:10, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted page

My page was deleted due to "blatant copyright infringement". I cited the source and provided a webpage link to the source. The person is Neal Creque and it was a biography. He is mentioned in several wiki-articles, but never had any information about him.

BTW - I am his daughter, and I didn't mean any harm. It was much easier to use the source from All Music Guide so the information could be verified rather than to write something completely new.

CreninCrenin (talk) 00:00, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Just so we're clear, I didn't delete that article. Cryptic did, so I can't really offer much of an opinion there.
If you feel an article is warranted, you can request a deletion review and make your case to the community. You would, however, need to rewrite the information in your own words or, better yet (because of the conflict of interest), have a neutral party write the article; you can request the article here, and someone else will find the necessary sources and work on it. I hope that helps, whatever you decide to do. Happy editing! Kafziel Complaint Department 00:10, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
