[edit] Hello!
Hi! I Just noticed your comments on the VfD page for pogroms in Istanbul, and I appreciate the points you raised. I agree with you when you say that we don't want wikipedia to become politically censored. I even think that some of Argy's information should be included. However, Argy constantly refuses to talk, creates sock-puppets, and twice vandalized my user page. Had he reasoned with me, I would have withdrawn the nomination. He didn't, and it is very POV (with that title), so I am now firmly on the keep side. I plan to stay out of the Cyrus dispute (which I have no stake in) except to revert Argy's edits, if neccessary. I regret that it has come to this, but he just won't talk. Some on the other side are also unreasonable, but they don't resort to vandalization and hysterical accusations quite as fast. To conclude: I had no political motivation in that VfD nomination, and I'm sorry if you feel I did. My only motivation in this is to help Wikipedia become as factual and NPOV as possible, and I personally have come to believe that we won't get that way by caving in to the demands of people like Argy. If you have any comments, feel free to drop them off at my talk page. Best wishes. Scimitar 13:34, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- In reply:
I thought I would point out to you that when Kiand picks out sock puppets, there is very little doubt in the matter. USers who just started on Wikipedia immediately finding their way to this article, and casting their votes to keep it? Unlikely, especially as it always seems to happen when Argy is losing an argument. Furthermore, User: SaintJerome, who appeared not 5 minutes after Argy was banned, immediately began reverting articles into Argy's POV. Thus, I think perhaps that the sock-puppetry charges are not inappropriate. Thank you though, for replying, and for being reasonable in your response. Best wishes. --Scimitar 18:16, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Dr Who Handles
Were pointed out to me by User:ChrisO. I have never watched the programme, but Google is your friend once given a lead
Also, to anyone who's used the Wikipedia for a long period of time, large numbers of users coming on to a VFD to vote and never do anything else are clearly one of two things: Direct or Indirect sockpuppets. Either the user is voting themselves under a number of handles, or they are requesting votes on an external forum (ironically enough, usually a forum in the modern sense). One or the other is happening in this case.
I have no political interest in the VFD - I'm from and live in Ireland, I have never been to Greece, Turkey or Cyprus; and beyond beating Cyprus in the Euro 2008 qualifiers; have no interest in the area. I do, however, have an interest in ensuring VFD's aren't hijacked. --Kiand 18:17, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Speedy delete
Could you please use {{db}} for tagging speedies. It includes a space to provide a reason, which makes my job as an admin a lot easier when on deletion duty. - Mgm|(talk) 11:43, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)
- By all means, continue proposing speedy deletions. I'm just asking you to use the template I suggested to make the job easier on the admins. Sorry if I cam across as harsh or something - I didn't find your behavior inappropriate at all. - Mgm|(talk) 11:55, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Important Message
This is His Majesty the Home Secretary of the Office of the Most Important Man in the Entire World. I have been authorised, as an official and dignitary/global elder statesman liason, to make an official statement on behalf of HRH 0001, in a June 21 statement addressing the issues you raised with him he stated, and I quote, 'Rule Britannia...da..da..da..da..daa'. I suspect his initial intention was to elaborate further, but while I was dictating he spilt soy sauce all over me and I stormed out of the room in utter disgust. He's sulking now in the smoking room.--0001 13:10, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Request for guidance
In reference to your (IMHO slightly aserbic) comments to User:001 under the VFD for Books about George W. Bush, could you advise me, as a relative newcomer to Wiki, where the official do-not-do list is for those wishing to avoid being tagged as trolls. It is hard enough avoiding being a "newbie" (whose views are unwanted as unformed), a "flamer" (because one sues language that someone else elects to consider inflammatory), or a "sockpuppet" (for being in agreement with someone with whom the Clique are in dis-agreement). Thank you (in advance) for your assistance. --Simon Cursitor 12:59, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- There isn't a clique; even the admins often disagree with one another quite strongly. There are standards of behavior which you can read about at Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines. There are also patterns of behavior that tend to spell "t-r-o-l-l" very loudly. 0001's activities were okay on the face of it but as he'd no editing history most VfD closers would probably discount his vote because of the possibility of sock puppetry--it isn't uncommon for supposedly new editors to reveal a remarkable knowledge of Wikipedia institutions coupled with little or no interest in editing articles, and it is assumed that those editors are just sock puppets or role accounts created by a regular for the purpose of trolling or disruption. His activities have become more problematic as time has gone on and I'm now firmly of the opinion that his intentions are solely to nitpick and disrupt.
- We aren't supposed to reject the views of newcomers, either, but there are limits and jumping into VfD early in one's editing career is not likely to be a pleasant experience.
- Inflammatory language is strongly deprecated, and personal attacks are too. If you try to address the argument rather than the person, there should be no problems.
- A good way to get a lot of kudos on Wikipedia, which causes other editors to discount the possibility that you're solely using Wikipedia to disrupt, is to contribute good material and interact politely with other editors, particularly those who themselves may be misbehaving themselves. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 13:41, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Thomas Meserau
"Rredirect articles to this gentleman (a lawyer who was involved in the recent Jackson trial) are being systematically deleted, reserving only a lead article which without the redirects some people will never find. Could someone please arbitrate on which redirects ought to exist. Simon Cursitor 13:38, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)"
- Systematic deletion would be rather disruptive. If you could provide a couple of examples thereof, the person who did that deserves a stern warning. I'd say redirects ought to exist from such pages as Michael Jackson, famous controversial court cases, recent news, and lists of lawyers. Of course that's no official statement, it feels like common sense. If you believe a link is appropriate, be WP:BOLD and add it. Yours, Radiant_>|< 14:16, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Australia
Thanks for your message. As Canberra becomes ever colder, I think about England with ever warmer thoughts.
The Queen does indeed have power in Australia. They are listed in the Constitution and they are mostly minor and/or moribund. To begin with, she has whatever prerogative powers of the monarch that have not been specifically assigned to the Governor-General. These amount to powers of legation and honours, mostly. Unimportant in themselves and assigned to the Governor-General under s2 nowadays. Presumably she could withdraw these powers, but as she acts under the advice of the Australian Prime Minister since the Statute of Westminster, it is unlikely that she would be advised to do so. s61 says that the executive power is vested in the Queen but exercisable by the Governor-General, which means that the Queen cannot exercise any powers save these specifically given to her.
Her constitutional powers are pretty much restricted to ss2, 59-60. s59 gives her the power to disallow Australian legislation, but this is moribund. Never used, nor likely to, as it would be a strange Prime Minister who advised the Queen to disallow his own legislation. s60 allows the Queen to sign legislation reserved for her pleasure - such legislation is a rarity, but as a courtesy, any legislation affecting her is reserved for her pleasure, such as the Royal Style and Titles Act 1953. s2 allows her to assign (and theoretically withdraw) residual prerogative powers to the Governor-General, but most importantly it gives her the power to appoint (and, in theory, dismiss) the Governor-General. Again, this power is exercised on the sole advice of the Australian Prime Minister.
The Governor-General's powers are explicitly given to him, and they are pretty much the same powers of the Queen in the UK - he appoints government ministers, dissolves or prorogues Parliament, signs legislation, calls elections, acts as commander-in-chief of the defence force. Most importantly, these powers are given to the Governor-General and the Queen may not exercise them, nor may she give instructions on how they should be used. They are set down in the Constitution and only we the people may modify them through the referendum process in s128.
The bottom line is that the Queen is a ceremonial figurehead and the Governor-General has all the important powers, as convincingly demonstrated in 1975 when the Governor-General dismissed the Prime Minister and the Queen pointed out that she had no power to intervene.
On the head of state issue, the perception is divided and changeable, but the trend has ever been towards the Governor-General. The Prime Minister says that the Governor-General is the head of state, for example, and the official Commonwealth Government Directory flips between describing the Queen as head of state and the Governor-General as head of state. The monarchist view is that the Governor-General is the head of state and the republican view is that the Queen is the head of state, and during the 1999 referendum campaign this became a political question.

Looks to me as if somebody has been overdoing it. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 10:02, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I think your suggestion makes a lot of sense. Cleanup is often better done with a lag time rather than by confrontation. The redirects in themselves were not disrupting Wikipedia. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 11:10, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Templates
re: your vote on Wikipedia:WikiProject Templates at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/WikiProject Templates. User:Stevertigo created the WikiProject and then did nothing further.

[edit] Reply
Since this question appears directed at me, I'll reply here -- the RFC you commented on is very old, created during Plautus' first stay here (he was subsequently banned by the arbcom for a year). During his first stay here, I was the person who conflicted with Plautus the most. I basically led the charge to get him banned (and believe me, he could not have picked a more opportune time - it took TREMENDOUS of effort to eject even-the-most-obviously-bad users back them). When the arbitration committee got around to hearing the case (it was only the second case the committee ever took; I had to make an ultimatum on the mailing list to get them to hear it). As a participant in the case (more or less the plaintiff), it was my job to present evidence as to why they should punish him. Nowdays, we expect participants in disputes to offer evidence as a matter of course. →Raul654 16:47, July 29, 2005 (UTC)
Also, as a follow up, you might find it enlightening to read user:Raul654/Plautus (which I have updated to cover his recent behavior) →Raul654 07:46, July 31, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Government Warehouse
You may remember that I attempted to address your concerns about the original contents of Government Warehouse with a rewrite. Reddi (talk • contribs) has since restored the original unverifiable contents to the article, and then, when I removed them again, "in order to avoid an edit war" forked List of the Government Warehouse's contents. That latter has since been nominated for deletion, but currently there is just the one keep vote. Reddi (talk • contribs) has stated on Talk:Government Warehouse that if the latter article is deleted, xe intends to re-add the content to Government Warehouse once again. You commented that there should be "a block on recreation" of this list. That "block" is you. If you think that this content does not belong in Wikipedia, please contribute to the discussions at Talk:Government Warehouse and Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of the Government Warehouse's contents, and consider putting the article on your watchlist.

[edit] Sturmgrenadier AfD
I'm dropping you this note, as I'd seen you vote on Emil Christensen/Heaton that were up for deletion and you probably have an interest. Recently, the article for Sturmgrenadier met with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sturmgrenadier. I would appreciate your input on the article and comments on the AfD page, whether you see fit to retain it or delete it. Would especially love to see some of the humour you inject into the talk pages I've been glancing at (I had a nice glass of Dow's "Boardroom" Tawny port the other night, worthy of sharing....) --Habap 15:40, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for your comments on the AfD. I was suprised that the Deletionist page existed, though I'd seen many of them during a brief run I'd had in reviewing VfDs. I suspect that Zzzzz was merely taking advantage of them. My suspicion, full of Gaming Club Drama TM is that he has an axe to grind against Sturmgrenadier for some reason. There are failed applicants, disgruntled former members, and bitter in-game enemies of the group. On the other hand, he might just be a guy or gal who hates having gaming clans on Wikipedia. I am curious if his campaign will continue to Team 3D, Ninjas in Pyjamas, Kyle "Ksharp" Miller, and Emil "Heaton" Christensen. If he disappears after this AfD battle is over, I will assume he was one of the angry ones....
- I think his actions are borderline, but I haven't looked at RfC's before. I did look at a lot of RfA's and this certainly isn't that bad. I will probably keep an eye on him. It's entirely possible that he will evolve into a good editor, despite questionable tactics in the first AfD on which he met opposition.
- Of course, if something looks like a duck and sounds like a duck, it's not a cabal, it's a duck! --Habap 15:18, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

I sand by my comment that the article, at the time I proposed it for speedy deletion, made no assertion as to notability for its subject. If you have since added such material, then it will be for other Wiki-users to assess it. -- Simon Cursitor 09:37, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion review (Simon Strelchik))
Sir, Having read your comments on this Deletion review, may I politely ask how many edits it is necessary to have undertaken.
Assuming -- at least for the sake of argument -- that that was a serious question, let me refer you to a section of the same page, a section which you have perhaps overlooked:
- If you look at the accounts Mackensen blocked through his log, you will see that VaughanWatch's socks tend to have 50-100 edits (mostly minor copyedits) all on the same day, then they go dormant until they start posting on Simon Strelchik AfDs or other Vaughan issues. Munchkin looks very much the same. Thatcher131 11:16, 21 April 2006 Hmm, that behavior pattern looks familiar.
VaughanWatch has used 60+ -- mostly confirmed -- sockpuppets, none with the least bit of subtlety. Perhaps you enjoy having your intelligence insulted, but I don't. --Calton | Talk 12:58, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Simon please help - they banned me and are banning a bunch of people making any new edits. I wish they would just stop doing that! Deletion review Gsinclair 01:46, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Scarlet
In response to your comments on Captain Scarlet...
Firstly - the MEV in the original series is not "blown to smithereens" as you put it. I cannot comment on the new series pilot, not having seen that particular episode, but that is of no consequence anyway. In the original series - about which article we are discussing - the only indication we have of Black's transformation is a zoom in, in which he is shown to have change to the hard-faced agent we see in the remainder of the series. No death; no green circles. We never see the vehicle again. We are not shown the return to earth. All we know with certainty - from Colonel White's dialogue - is that Black disappeared immediately after its return.
Dialogue in the car, immediately before the accident resulting in Brown's and Scarlet's deaths and transformations makes it perfectly clear that Brown is the senior officer. This is the only point on which perhaps there is leeway for interpretation. Nevertheless, once again there is no absolute citable reference clearly stating that Scarlet is a "senior agent" as the article stated.
In the context of the destruction of the Mysteron city - at the time it was simply a facility of unknown origin. What may or may not be revealed or referred to later in the series constitutes a spoiler (however small) and doesn't belong in a brief synopsis of the events beginning the story.
In both instances I edited for accuracy. Wikipedia is not a forum for being "almost sure", "making cases" or philosophical argument. Certitude is the watchword. I have been a fan of the programme since its first time around. (i.e. 1960s when I was a very young child.) I have the entire series on DVD, and other reference material to hand. I am not going on memory or speculation, but on reference. Cain Mosni 13:23, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- I Know you asked me not to respond - but how else does one offer an apology? I am sorry that you took my comments as venomous, although re-reading them I genuinely cannot see what you found abusive. Direct yes, but not abusive. At worst I was pointing out the lack of certainty in your foundation, and detailing the facts. Nevertheless, no insult was intended, and the apology for any perceived slight is utterly genuine. I am quite aware that the lack of intent does not reduce the insult you may feel. I certainly don't question your motives. I'm not out to make enemies, and I hope you accept the apology. I'd much sooner understand a mistake, and make a friend. Like you I have no interest in exchanging abuse - life's too short. Cain Mosni 12:40, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD: Arthur, King of Time and Space
I'd like to invite you to visit the site and sample the strip at various points in its history. I don't expect to make you abandon your "master-plan" to cleanse Wiki~'s comics covergae, but I do hope to persuade you that this is not a fly-by-night job, adn that the lack of references is probably becausde this is art for art's sake, not art to get the critics babbling about it. Respecfully, Simon Cursitor
- I took a look at the site when I nominated earlier today. I'll take another look, but I'm pretty sure the AFD process will give the article a fair case. --Brad Beattie (talk) 15:10, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- Respectfully, I've no doubt it will. However, the AfD process replies, as far as I can see, on nominations, and then the ascription of many contrary views to sockpuppets, ballot-stuffing (and of course AfD ins't a vote) and the like. I was merely hoping that, on reflection, you would either withdraw the nomination, or at least temper your criticism with an acknowledgement that some people may hear of it and come to Wiki~ for more information. Yes, if Wiki~ had a dedicated comix-sub, I'd vote for the article at this length to go there, and a summary remain here. But it doesn't and can't. Sorry to use up your talk-space, but this is one I feel highly about. -- Simon Cursitor
- Yeah, I can understand and respect the position that people come to Wikipedia for information, but I have concerns about the notability of many articles that currently exist here. To draw a hyperbole, I'm sure some people have heard of my friend's self-published CD of music, but I wouldn't suggest that it have a page here on Wikipedia. It's all about Notability.
- As for the comics, it just so happens that I'm focusing my attention on them first; it's not a specific agenda against that topic. I guess one of the best places to take your concerns about stubs would be WP:COMIC's talk page. I went there a week ago on the subject of Keenspot and Comic Genesis and the discussion was rather fruitful. --Brad Beattie (talk) 15:31, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

quasi-racialist; entire subject represents a thinly-veiled attack page
Seriously? I'm Jewish, not of the self-hating variety, and not adherent, but nevertheless, ethnically and socially a Jew. I don't find anything about the article to be a) racist/racialist, or b) a "thinly veiled attack page". I'm curious as to how you came to those conclusions. Thanks. -- weirdoactor t|c 12:32, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
- It represented an attempt to differentiate the members of one racial group from another, and in a manner and on a topic used in the past for an attack on that racial group,namely that all members of it are engaged in a meta-national conspiracy. But you are entitled to your own conclusions. I was merely expressing the view (as I believe I am entitled) that the article did not ought to be within W~paedia. -- Simon Cursitor

Thank you so much for your kind words here [1] I have only tried to help with that article, since to me it appeared in total disarray.
