3 revert rule

Can you block BerrtilVidet for vandalizing by reverting legitimate entries in the NationalSecurity Council page four or five times in a row, clearly violating Wikipedia rules? Thanks.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.122.113.10 (talk • contribs) 13:07, 8 October 2006.

Your edits appeared as vandalism, such as seen [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?

Dear pilot guy. When you are not busy bombing the muslim civilians or profiling and throwing out the middle eastern looking passanges from your plane, can you look at the content that Bertil Videt, your kind, is not allowing? Thanks.#

I won't even bother answering the Armenian Genocide-maniac french cutie. Let her enjoy with what they got away with in Algeria and rest of Africa.

title=National_Security_Council&diff=prev&oldid=80237506 here]. And then your rather rude remarks in response to the removal of your vandalism, as seen here. Doesn't matter anyways, you're blocked. -HurricaneJeanne 17:18, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Moving Template talk:User copyright

Hi, I saw that you closed (with userfy - I can only agree, but since I was involved I couldn't close it myself with a clean conscience) TfD (and forgot to sign, naughty, naughty ;) and moved the template to User:Mistress Selina Kyle/User Copyright. Would ya mind if we moved the page into one of the userbox archives (like Mira's or mine) instead? CharonX/talk 21:16, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Removing old warnings

Please don't re-add old warnings to anon IPs pages, eg [1]. Old warnings add no value. The {{repeat vandal}} template gives adequate history of blocks and an indication that there has been trouble from the IP before. Anons may well not know the protocol of scrolling down the bottom of the page - the message will be lost in the noise of messages quite possibly not addressed to that user. I have discussed my approach at Wikipedia talk:Removing warnings poll#Clean-up of IP talk pages and received some support and no discouragement.--Arktos ^talk 01:11, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

User talk:70.246.220.246

Kudos to you, sir. I saw that he had vandalised the article, and went to check his talk page to see if he had been warned. I made the mistake of reading it whilst drinking from a glass of water, however. Congratulations on having a sense of humour. Sometimes vandal-fighting can get tedious otherwise. :) --Dreaded Walrus 22:54, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Template: Infobox Scientist

Dear Pilotguy, Thank you for closing off this TfD debate. You say 'YIKES' there is no consensus, however I'd like to point out a few things. Firstly, please check my arithmetic but I make it that 35 people were for either keeping the template or at least making modifications. I make it that 19 people wanted a straight delete. So the swing is toward modifying the template. The discussion on which fields should be retained, and which should be trimmed is occuring here [2]. Please check this out. It looks like a consensus on which template fields to delete is converging. Please advise what the proper way to proceed is. Best regards, bunix 17:58, 16 September 2006 (UTC) PS: Please also note that those voting 'delete' did try to bias the voting in their favour by deleting the TfD notice off the template under the pretext that it looked 'ugly'. Sheesh! Thus 2-3 days of voting went by with many users oblivious to what was going on. We eventually fought to get the TfD notice back on. That's why you'll see a big cabal of "delete" early on in the debate, and then the "keep" weighing in later in the debate. Another rather underhanded trick the 'delete' brigade did was to manually remove the template itself from the 40 most popular articles, in the middle of the debate, thus hiding the TfD notice from visibility. I suspect if all these shenanigans had not occured there would be a clearer consensus for "keep." What should we do about those 40 semi-vandalised articles? Hours of painstaking work has been removed.

TfD

Hi there, you closed many discussions for TfD, however, you closed two with consensus to delete and you didn't delete them. Perhaps they slipped through the net. They were Template:MyBabble and Template:User FORTH-1. Cheers. --Bob 16:01, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for protecting the page from anonymous edits. --Pi3832 15:31, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Impostor

What is the reason for deleting this template, or alternatively Template:Similar. They are useful for establishing that a user account is not in fact that account of the person they were imitating, so it is clear that the real person was not actually banned. Of course, this is not necessary or, I think, appropriate for accounts which are named so it is obviously not the user, and those should be replaced with the indefinite block template. The other alternative is to use redirects to the real person, but the problem with that is it can give the impression that the edits by the impostor were actually the edits of the real person using an alternative account. So, in cases where there are such edits, the impostor template should be kept. —Centrx→talk • 18:12, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

65.30.152.217

Hi there, i'm interested in why you've felt it necessary to block User:65.30.152.217 for a month? While the user did make legal threats they were made due to misunderstanding and frustration with personal info being posted on their talk page, see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive136#Personal information was posted to my user page.

That edit was made a few days back, and we don't block users to punish them... Thanks/wangi 17:14, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually i've just unblocked the user - give me a shout if you disagree. Thanks/wangi 17:25, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Ukrainian Professional Football Clubs List

Re: Your closure of the TfD debate here - was just wondering why you decided keep when consensus was quite clearly delete? I presume you just made an accidental mistake - if so could you please revise your decision and delete the template? Thanks. Qwghlm 11:12, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

I was going to post a reply on this as well..No one vouched for keeping it, so I'm assuming that its a mistake as well. Cheers, --Palffy 20:02, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Erik Möller

I don't think this qualified for speedying as a repost and salting the earth, as Erik has become a board member of the WMF since the previous deletion and the article has never been deleted non-speedily. If Florence Nibart-Devouard and Angela Beesley have articles, then Erik should be at least worth a debate. Would you mind restoring the article (and possibly AFDing it) or should I take this to DRV? Note that Michael E. Davis redirects to Wikimedia Foundation, another possibility instead of a {{Deletedpage}}. Happy editing, Kusma (討論) 09:10, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Seconded. G4's for consensus-deleted articles, this seemed improper. --badlydrawnjeff talk 22:54, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually, G4 is a criteria for speedy deletion, which is what I did so, thank you for pointing that out to me. // Pilotguy (Have your say) 01:45, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

You have to actually read the critera you're using: G4: "A substantially identical copy, by any title, of a page that was deleted as a result of a discussion in Articles for deletion or another XfD process...This clause does not apply if the only prior deletions were speedy or proposed deletions." Should we bring this to DRV or will you be undeleting this and choosing a possible AfD? --badlydrawnjeff talk 02:06, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Deletion/Protection on my page

I recently found that you had deleted and protected my former Wikipage Benjamin_Nicholas, for what reason i'm unaware of. It had merit within the scope of the posting and to delete it indiscriminantly isn't quite understood. It seems i had some issues with other users vandalizing the page, but that could have been fixed with simple blocks rather than a whole deletion.

I move for reinstatement of this page, as you have other authors, bloggers, sex-workers and adult industry persons on Wikipedia. Why was this particular page singled-out for example? I find it bigoted and discriminatory.

Niwot High School

Thanks for the backup. Several weeks back, that page degenerated into a ridiculous blog where a bunch of students constantly posted their gripes about the school. I put some notes for them on Talk:Niwot High School on the theory that someone in that school is above the mental age of 8, but that seems not to be the case. -- Jim Douglas ^(talk) _(contribs) 00:55, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

TfD

I recently put up Template:Rennes and template:Troyes for deletion and both were deleted, but I actually wanted all templates in ‎Category:French Football Club Templates(here) to be deleted. I can only put up one template at a time so I see how you were confused and only deleted the ones I actually put up. Basically, I wanted you to delete the rest of the templates in the above category so they can be piped. The original TfD debate is at Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Log/2006 September 9#Template:Troyes. Thanks! Reywas92^Talk 21:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Woody Allen

HELLO can you fix this someday...when you get the chance...

Woody Allen and Soon-Yi Previn, 35 years. She was his stepdaugher and 22 years old at start of the relationship. They married on December 24, 1997 and the relationship is ongoing as of 2006. This was his third marriage. They had two adopted daughters.

i'm not a woody allen fan (since he stop making funny movies 30 years ago), but Soon-Yi was not his "stepdaughter." She was his girlfriend's stepdaughter. They never lived together before (Woody and Mia lived apart) they started "dating." It was Mia who kept putting them together and making them go on "dates" before they started "dating." Woody never even stayed overnight at Mia's because he didn't like to use her toilet (for shit). He had his own place in NY a mile away (which is 100 miles in montana). This is all public knowledge...ya ya ya

email me with any questions: arthurraleigh@yahoo.com if you get the time can you tell me why the "Age Disparity in Relationships" list was removed from the Wikipedia yes i watched the fight on Wiki, and might have even contributed, but how was it, the list, harmful to what wikipedia is or wants to be... thanks, art

ps. like i said i'm not a woody allen fan i'm just a fan of the truth 69.113.7.179 12:26, 11 October 2006 (UTC)art

RECENT Activity

I'd like to discuss recent activity with you. Hu12 has taken NAZI like power hungry approach to editing any link added or taken away from a page. Wiki is an open system and if the linked to site is non comercial and a valuable asset it should not be removed without a trial time period or discussion, instead he has gone ballisitic deleting any and every site, commnet, content he finds that he THINKS is affiliated or associated with one account which he's been dead wrong with and nuked many high qualuty sites that fell victim to his poor asumptions and sleuth work. I suggest a truce otherwise the barage will continue 7 days a week 24 hours a day, and contrib he makes will be reversed. We want an equitable intelligent resolution to this for him to back off, relax and make more intelligent edits and not to attack pages that have nothing to do with any of this. EXTERNAL links ARE allowed on this site as long as they are non commercial and meaningful. IT IS NOT solely up to HIS discretion what is allowed or not allowed. This is a community. Please respond I want to know his balisitic unintelligent BLIND editing will be curbed or this WILL continue —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.12.116.12 (talk • contribs)

This guy posts as MountainLife at digitalpoint.com, and has recently decided to sell his site, quote: "Would like to field some offers for these, TMX-ELMO.NET, TMX-ELMO.ORG,TMXELMO.ORG, I think it's a pretty potent package".

Advice

Hello Pilotguy, I noticed you warned User:81.154.252.34 about removing warnings. I've been kind of in an edit war with this user. I've asked him multiple times to discuss his changes, but he always just reverts. In Major religious groups he continually goes against the verifiable source, and removes the Aymaddias from the Muslim group, even though they self-identify as Muslim and included by the source. He's also been in revert wars with other editors in Islam in China, and he's used terminology that is against the Wikipedia:Manual of Style (Islam-related articles) in Islamic view of miracles. I've given up reverting him there, because he doesn't listen to valid arguments. He's been blocked multiple times for 3RRs in those pages. Do you have any suggestions?
