Adminship

We're (Where I live) suppose to get a foot of snow tomorrow, so I'm not going to be going anwyhere. I actually plan on running for admin tomorrow! Wish me luck! Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 02:29, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think I'm ready? Or should I wait? Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 03:05, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I think i'm ready. Otherwise I wouldn't run. :) Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 03:07, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alright. There is really no difference. Delete Spencer Lee Brown, the article is well... (Just delete it) Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 03:10, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I'm not sure you should block this guy or not, but his username is inappropriate. But he has made close to 6000 edits. Why did no one notice this? Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 03:35, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok done[1]. I'm home all day, like 1 feet of snow outside, and its still falling hard. Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 14:27, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
He did it again -.- I'm not sure if this will help? Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 15:43, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

S/he's baa-aaaack! (Dodge Dart)

Hi, Jj137. Remember the unregistered editor who was making a mess of Dodge Lancer and Plymouth Valiant? Well, it's taken longer than I expected, but sure enough, as I predicted, s/he's now making exactly the same kind of mess in Dodge Dart. Guideline-compliant images replaced with this editor's pet (and really bad, and noncompliant, and grabbed off the web) images, numerous sequential one-word and one-sentence edits (and some much more substantial disruptions including addition of unencyclopædic material) made in an apparent effort to thwart cleanup, etc. See here...no fewer than seventeen sequential edits of this type. I'm not perfectly clear on the protocol...do I need to go request indefinite semi-protection as has been applied to the other two car articles, or can an administrator such as yourself just swoop in and do it? Thanks! --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 03:22, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The only non-disruptive edits by Semi Gloss are this one and this one. --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 04:02, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Additional abusive behaviour from Semi Gloss — at this point I am reasonably certain Semi Gloss is our mystery 69.2xx.xxx.xxx nonrego editor. --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 19:07, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with you. A sock puppetry accusation would be premature, and while it seems likely the "two" contributors are likely the same character, I'm definitely not certain of it. I think probably the best course of action is indefinite semiprotection of Dodge Dart. That way, the nonrego editor cannot contribute. At that point, whether Semi Gloss is in fact 69.2xx.xxx.xxx is not very important, for if s/he continues to be disruptive or otherwise problematic, s/he is subject to censure and behavioural corrections that cannot practically be enforced against IP-only contributors. If after the article is semiprotected we start seeing a pattern definitely indicative of sock puppetry (Semi Gloss gets blocked, and immediately the same kind of edit shows up from another newly-registered user) then that would be an appropriate time to pursue that, as it seems. Thanks! --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 02:39, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Update: It looks like the semiprotection on Plymouth Valiant expired, and 69.2xx.xxx.xxx immediately pounced on the opportunity to start making the same kinds of disruptive edits that caused the article to be semiprotected. --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 17:55, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! Let's hope s/he gets the message. --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 21:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I don't share your confidence. I think we're dealing with someone exhibiting the signs of Asperger's Syndrome...s/he seems to have a narrow interest in only these particular cars (Dodge Dart/Lancer, Plymouth Valiant/Barracuda). But we'll see! --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 00:07, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Captain Trips

You closed the deletion debate on the article Captain Trips, but haven't as yet removed the afd notice from the page or added {{oldafdfull}} to the talk page. Do you need a hand? Hiding T 11:01, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've gone ahead and removed the afd template and added oldafdfull to the talk page, hope that's okay. Hiding T 11:03, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That was just a mistake. Thanks for removing it and placing the {{oldafdfull}}, though. :)   jj137 ♠ 20:20, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some parts were OK, but others were written like an advertisement (see this for my reason of deletion). I'd be willing to restore it, removing the advertisement parts.   jj137 ♠ 20:18, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That would be fine with me. For my edification would you paste the sentences that struck you as ad-like into this talk thing? Language connotations in the "church world" may be somewhat different from those in the "wiki world". Reading the specific sentences that did not conform would be the easiest way for me to get a handle on "wiki world" connotations. Also, seeing them might suggest a rephrasing, so that useful content if any could be retained. Thanks, StMJ (talk) 20:37, 14 January 2008 (UTC) Thanks for providing the deleted material (on my talk page). I see what you mean. Even though there actually is suitable content buried in there, you have to be in "church thinkspace" to pick up on it, so it should be rephrased. This was useful, thanks.[reply]

Incidentally, it seems to me that a whole lot of already-existing pages on individual churches would benefit from a similar "style" reprimand... It's such a different style between church and Wikipedia that it's very easy to make stylistic errors.

Of course, you guys are already working very hard... No pressure :)

Best,StMJ (talk) 22:16, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry about the difference between them, it is a pretty common mistake. (Also, if you would like to point out some of the other church articles that need cleanup, that may help) :) So, would you like me to restore the article without the above text?   jj137 ♠ 23:32, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, please go ahead and restore it without that text. Thanks! Re other pages - Hm - There are an awful lot of individual church pages out there. I'd be happy to point out a few, but my efforts would necessarily be pretty scattershot. Let's see how my own editing goes. If it works out, maybe I could contribute more effectively by suggesting some general editing strategies that make sense to churchgoers.StMJ (talk) 16:25, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RFA

Yea, I saw him do it twice today. Doesn't he ever get bored? Also, can you approve me for Vandalproof? Also, my RFA is doing worse than last time: how is this possible? Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 20:29, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. If it doesn't succeed (99.99%) [ ...the .1% can always act up :) ] I will probably run again in March. And there is no way I will run before that. Or rather, if you plan to nominate me, don't do it till the 1st of March. Does that seem like a good date?, I will keep a goal of 12000 edits... Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 20:36, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I'm writing a large article right noe, and its taking a while. So, can we do this a little later? Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 23:38, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Two things: One is good :) one is bad :(. Ok...uh...the bad thing first. I must have wrote 20 pages on this thing (hand written) of research. Then I find out the article has already been created., under a different name. However, the article is pretty short, no thats an understatement, extremely short compared to mine. Can the article be deleted, and replaced with mine (if you think it's good)? Don't want to merge them. Now, for the good thing: Let's go to the admin thing you were talking about. Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 23:55, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
here. The article is about 1/4 done. Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 00:01, 15 January 2008 (UTC) (I just created a new page for it moved it from here.[reply]

Ok. Is there anyway you can create a timeline on wikipedia? It shows the events in chronological order? Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 00:04, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, tough it is. I'm not sure if I want to make it. But know I know for the reference! Next question: When people say this article is not notable, what exactly do they mean by that. Question after that: Is there a program like Twinkle that covers every single category for speedy deletion (does Twinkle do this?) Ohmpandya (Talk to Me...) 00:14, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Admin Questions

Ok. I have two other questions:

  • How can you find out the I.P. address of a username?
  • Where is the list that shows all accounts recently created? (I know there is one...Where?)

Scooby Dooby Doo

Now that thats is out of my system, about the newsletter.

What are we doing for it this week? --HPJoker Leave me a message 23:50, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

not again...

"You know, if you wanted something on the Bobby Farrell article, all you had to do was ask in at least a somewhat polite manner instead of vandalizing my talk page repeatedly. jj137 ♠ 23:05, 14 January 2008 (UTC)"

Well, you're not being honest... again, which does not surprise me. Long before I resorted to this so-called 'hobby', I left you a polite message on your very page, which you just brushed off with an invalid reason. Nothing on farrell's page was in violation - it was you who made that subjective interpretation, when in fact there was no violation. The problem was that this dude from holland started all that mess and you just took his word for it. Then that republican guy supposedly tried to communicate with you, only to chicken out later on. So, this is where I came in - for the first time since farrell's page got protected under a fraudulent request by that dutch guy, whom you gladly trusted blindly. That dutch guy was the culprit of the problem, whereas the republican guy was some ball-less sissy who backed down very soon. Now, going back to me - I did ask you politely BEFORE I trashed anything - so, please, stop twisting the facts, just like you did with your "open interpretation" of why that video was in violation. There is a difference between "violation to include" and "preferred not to be included". Please, stop twisting things around.

That's exactly what I'm talking about! I leave a decent message and I get reverted by yet another one of your posse, for no reason. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.141.221.252 (talk) 02:19, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Three articles

You prodded three articles (Miniatures: Views of Islamic and Middle Eastern Politics, Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives have Penetrated Washington, and Jihad in the West) with concerns that they did not cite original third-party sources; I eventually deleted them because of an expired PROD tag. The original author requested the pages be undeleted, and said he would work on the sources. Would it be all right if you if I undelete them?   jj137 ♠ 20:28, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend that you ask him if he has reliable third-party sources for any of them. Before prodding, I did a cursory search and was unable to find any such sources. It's certainly possible I may have missed something. If he does cite such sources, then I would be OK with undeletion. Be sure that they meet the reliability test, and aren't just random political blogs or some such. The article creator has a history of tendentious editing related to the issue of Islam (he's been trying to violate WP:BLP on the Barack Obama featured article for some time). *** Crotalus *** 20:42, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

copyediting template transclusion

Hi,

I see that you've been changing {{refs}} to {{reflist}} on various articles, with the edit summary "copyediting". There isn't really a need to replace template redirects like this, either for readability ("reflist" is still an abbreviation) or for WP:PERFORMANCE reasons. I'm just curious as to why you're doing it. Chris Cunningham (talk) 10:55, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, {{refs}} redirects to {{reflist}}, and sometimes I find it confusing with so many different templates, etc.; without actually going to the template page, people may think {{refs}} and {{reflist}} are two different reference templates, but they're not. I'm just trying to make things at least slightly clearer to editors, mainly not-so-experienced ones. Hope that answers your question.   jj137 ♠ 23:36, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bobby Farrell

Hi, I must admit that I am confounded by your edit to Bobby Farrell. Why did you reverse your earlier decision? How is this in compliance with WP:RSUE? Jvhertum (talk) 08:38, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Mike Lowell

I was going to summaries the story, but whats the point of that?[2]. Now that's what I call an innocent guy :). Oh yeah, I don't think you sent the email, I have not received it yet. - Ohmpandya We need to talk... ♦ contribs 20:43, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

farrell... again

Not again, man, make up your mind. Why let that dutch character mess with your mind? That was not a compromise, that was called obliteration. We've been there before. If you put it in the link, put the appropriate context to it, don't just say an 'interview'. It makes no sense, and that's what that dude wants. Come on, man, you can do better than that. You've earned my respect not for nothing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.144.179.17 (talk) 22:54, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Badness on talk:Chrysler Hemi engine

Hi, Jj137. If you get a moment, could you please take a look at the recent unpleasantness? Chrysler Hemi engine was permanently semi-protected due to persistently, doggedly disruptive behaviour by an unrego who, as you can see on the talk page, has a lengthy history of abusive personal attacks and incivility. This is not the same individual who was disrupting Dodge Dart and Plymouth Valiant. His (or her) newest brand of disruption is to intersperse abusive comments amongst existing text on the talk page. This is in addition to his/her bizarre refusal to sign posts, even to the extent of going back in to delete the autosignature provided by SineBot. It seems to me this talk page is an excellent candidate for permanent semi-protection in line with that of the article, but I don't know if talk pages are ever semiprotected. I'd like to get your view on this before I proceed to RfPP. Thanks. --Scheinwerfermann (talk) 23:51, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RE:WP:PACKERS

Hi, and welcome to WikiProject Green Bay Packers! We are a group of Wikipedians with one common interest, the Green Bay Packers!

There are many things you can do to help out and get yourself involved. Here is a few suggestions.

  • First visit the main page and our discussion page to see whats going on.
  • You can add {{GreenBayPackersProject}} to talk pages of Green Bay Packers-related articles, and please assess them as well.
  • You can categorize Green Bay Packers articles into their proper categories.
  • Visit the main page and look under Tasks to see any other things that need to be done.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or would like to talk about the project in general, feel free to leave a message on the talk page or contact User:Gonzo fan2007. Thanks for your interest in the project, and lets go out and work on those articles!

Thanks :-) It was a heck of a lot of work assessinga bunch of articles, and getting everything organized. I still want to make a sort of Collaboration of the Week/Month and a type of weekly/monthly newsletter, but I have basically got everything set-up. Now its time to start working on the articles. When things slow down a bit I'm going to start working on Green Bay Packers and some other core articles, so any help there would be great (well any help anywhere would be great :-) But thanks for the kind words (on my talk page and my rfa) and if you need anything feel free to knock on my door.
Gonzo fan2007 talk ♦ contribs 21:46, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That would be fine with me!! Feel free to go at it. I have a lot going on right now, so I probably wouldnt be able to get to it for a little bit, so if you want to take over those sections (like be the coordinator or something to that affect), that would be great! If you have any questions or anything, feel free to ask, but I trust your judgment to do some good work :-)
Gonzo fan2007 talk ♦ contribs 21:53, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That would be great! Here's the red link to create Wikipedia:WikiProject National Football League/Green Bay Packers subproject/Newsletter. If you didn't know, the html color codes for the Packers colors are #FFCC00 (the Gold color) and #213D30 (the dark green). And if you do create the template, throw {{GreenBayPackersProject|class=NA}} on the talk page for me please!! Thanks for your help!
Gonzo fan2007 talk ♦ contribs 22:01, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah it is a template, but i need the template to float to the right in every other page except for the main project page, where it needs to be centered. I couldnt figure out how to make it centered except for just copying the content right onto the page and then changing it to float:center.

Looks like a good start! I dont have the time to do some template work right now (college reading) but I will try and get to it in the coming day. Keep on working on it though, it seems like you know what you are doing!

A7 reasons

did you make in deleting Saint Champ Road as A7? It does not seem to fall in any of the A7 categories. not that i think the article can be defended, but I really dont see any way to do it by speedy--the context is clear enough, too. DGG (talk) 02:39, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA

Hey there, I'm writing to inform you that I have withdrawn my request for adminship, which was currently standing at 11 supports, 22 opposes and 6 neutrals. This count could have been so much better if I had understood policy, although I believe that 17 questions is a lot to ask of a user's first RfA.

Hello, The second row of examples at [5] illustrate jpeg artifacting pretty well. Hope that clarifies your question. These artifacts are only there because of a desire to reduce image file size, not because of the optics, and therefore they are a standard on which we can be picky. de Bivort 22:16, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
