:Well, you could attack it in several ways, and there's '''no guarantee''' that this is the most efficient, but here's what I'm doing:
:*pick any non-crossed-out line at [[User:Barneca/Sandboxen/Sandbox]]
:*look at the category that was deleted
:*see if you can figure out what was intended (spelling error, etc.)
:*if the solution is obvious, fix it
:*if you don't know what the solution is (this happens to me alot, as I don't actually do much categorization work, and some of the rules are kind of arcane to me), at least revert BCBot so the link is red and someone else can come along and fix it
:*go to the sandbox again, cross that one out, and pick another.

== Suggested changes in the WMF privacy policy ==

Hello, Barneca,

I posted some suggestions for changes in the WMF privacy policy at the WMF site: [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Privacy_policy#Suggestions_for_changes_in_the_privacy_policy].
The gist of the suggestions is to institute a requirement for notifying those registered users whose identifying info is being sought by subpoenas in third-party lawsuits.
These suggestions are motivated in large part by a discussion that took place in January 2008 at the Village Pump (Policy) page [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28policy%29/Archive_25#Releasing_IP_addresses_of_registered_users:_the_Video_Professor_incident] in relation to an incident where identifying IP data of sixteen Wikipedia users was released in response to such a subpoena.
I also left a note about these proposal at Village Pump, [[WP:Village_pump_%28policy%29#Suggestions_for_changes_in_the_WMF_privacy_policy]]. Since you have participated in the January Village Pump discussion, I hope that you will contribute to the discussion of the current suggestions at the WMF website, [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Privacy_policy]. Regards, [[User:Nsk92|Nsk92]] ([[User talk:Nsk92|talk]]) 12:49, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
:Done. That issue has kind of fallen off my radar. Has there been any interesting progress, or is it (as I suspect) just being ignored by [[The powers that be (phrase)|TPTB]]? --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 21:26, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
::OK, thanks. No, nothing much happened in the interim, so I am trying to make sure that TPTB at least think about learning some lessons from this episode. Regards, [[User:Nsk92|Nsk92]] ([[User talk:Nsk92|talk]]) 22:01, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

<span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS">Dear Barneca, thank you for taking part in [[Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Riana|my RfB]]. As you may know, it was [[Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Riana/Bureaucrat discussion|not passed]] by bureaucrats. <br>I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight. <br>I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community. <br>I was a little miserable after the results came out, so I'm going to spread the love via dancing hippos. As you do. :) <br>I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor.

==[[A&M Entertainment]]==
I completely agree with your rational [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%26M_Entertainment&diff=202823986&oldid=202820784 here]. Just wondering if there is a way for non-admins to review previously deleted articles to determine if an Afd or speedy delete is in order? Thanks. [[User:Dissolve|<span style="color: #000; font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small; font-weight: bold;">dissolve</span>]][[User talk:Dissolve|<span style="color: #000; font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><sup>talk</sup></span>]] 16:12, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
:No, as far as I can tell, that's kind of a Catch-22; the only people who can see the content are admins; but if it's a repost of previously deleted material, they'd just go ahead and delete it, without using {{tl|db}} tags. In the future, I think the best you can do is ask an admin to temporarily restore it. However, in this particular case, since the AfD was 2 years old, and numerous people had contributed to it over a relatively long time, it would have been a ''relatively'' safe bet that it wasn't identical to the deleted version.

:Still, no harm, no foul. BTW, I've expanded a bit on my edit summary on the article talk page; I didn't realize notability issues had been raised back in January, so while a grace period would still be nice, I don't think you necessarily owe it to Hypursuit. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 16:18, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
::Yeah unfort. I didn't notice the previous Afd was ''2 years ago'' before switching from Afd to speedy. I couldn't find any reliable sources to verify the article, but I'll still give it a couple days before taking it to Afd. Thanks for the info!

== Blocking of [[User:Dem5844]]‎ ==

You blocked this user for persistent vandalism according to the [[WP:blocking policy|blocking policy]]. This user vandalized twice, and even then, according to blocking policy, he should not be blocked, because two vandalism edits cannot be considered enough for a vandalism only account. Please reconsider your block. <font face="comic sans ms">[[User:Dustihowe|'''<font color="#ff0000">D</font><font color="#ff6600">u</font><font color="#009900">s</font><font color="#0000ff">t</font><font color="#6600cc">i</font>''']][[User talk:Dustihowe|<sup>talk to me</sup>]]</font> 16:59, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
:Why? I fully support the block. If the first two edits were obvious vandalism we have no reason to wait for more before we block. If the blocking policy says something different then we need to re-write it to make it clear that new accounts that vandalize can be blocked immediately with little fuss. [[User:FloNight|FloNight]][[User talk:FloNight|&#9829;&#9829;&#9829;]] 17:10, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
::As I suspected the policy does not say that. "and accounts whose main or only use is forbidden activity (sock-puppetry, obvious vandalism, personal attack, and so on) may not require further warning." Admins are expected to use their judgment. But blocking is the norm in these situations. If an admin chooses to go an extra mile by trying to dialog with a persistent vandal than i would not object. But since talking to vandals often encourages them, this approach is usually fruitless and should be the exception rather than the rule. If an user decides to make good contributions then they can write to the unblock list and make their case. [[User:FloNight|FloNight]][[User talk:FloNight|&#9829;&#9829;&#9829;]] 17:26, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

:::Thanks for the outside opinion, Flo. I usually err on the side of caution if there's any hint it might just be someone making rude test edits, but I'm slowly coming around to the opinion that people really do know that true vandalism is wrong, and much like no one gets a free pass and a warning before shoplifting, obvious vandals don't need to be told what they already know: that vandalism is wrong. Especially with Yamla's cool template that allows them to be unblocked if they contribute constructively in their own user space. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 17:49, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

:Hi Dusti,

:Give me a minute to look at the specific wording in the blocking policy, and I'll be back. I'm comfortable with my block even if it doesn't quite match the wording of the policy, but I want to avoid misquoting something. Back in a few. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 17:03, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

::OK, found it. From [[WP:BLOCK#Education and warnings]] "''Warning is not a prerequisite for blocking (particularly with respect to blocks for protection) but administrators should generally ensure that users are aware of policies, and give them reasonable opportunity to adjust their behaviour accordingly, before blocking. Users who have been made aware of a policy and have had such an opportunity, and accounts whose main or only use is forbidden activity (sock-puppetry, obvious vandalism, personal attack, and so on) may not require further warning.''"

::Now I usually go the level-1 thru level-4 route, but in this case an IP editor was adding misinformation to the article earlier today, "sourced" to a porn site. I gave the IP a final warning. Then this account was created, and inserted another porn site. This is not something you can do by "accident".

::Further thoughts on this are on Yamla's talk page: [User talk:Yamla#Some feedback]]. The short version is: the vandal did something he knew was wrong, and he has a way to get unblocked if he's really interested in being unblocked. I'm comfortable with this block, but if you still have concerns, we can discuss it further here, or if i get pulled away by the real world and don't answer you in 5-10 minutes, i have no problem at all with you modifying the block however you feel best. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 17:12, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

I am comfortable enough with it now because he is showing that he doesn't want to correctly contribute to Wikipedia by doing what's asked in the comments.

== [[WP:SSP]] advice needed ==

I would like to ask your advice about suspected sockpuppet template on user page. I have started the case. It will take time for editors to review it. But in the mean time, I have put the SSP template on user's page and he keeps removing it. Not to agrivate the situation I stopped putting it back, and asked in the SSP filling that he put the template back as long as the case is active. But he is not doing it. Any Advice? [[User:Igorberger|Igor Berger]] ([[User talk:Igorberger|talk]]) 21:53, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
:My advice is: pick your battles and let it drop. In the grand scheme of things, the suspected sockpuppetry tag on the user page doesn't matter. I '''think''' you're right policy-wise (i.e. the tag, last I checked, wasn't supposed to be removed), but it's not worth the hassle. Make your case at the SSP; if you can prove your case, the user page will have a "blocked" message on it soon enough. If you can't prove your case, then no sense trying to put a [[scarlet letter]] on their user page ahead of time. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 22:01, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
::The case is there, but it seems to be the community is giving the [[WP:TE]] editor another chance. The thing is this editor is so subtle in asserting his POV and advicating deliting one article. That seems is the primary objective of this SPA reincarnated sock. This is case #2. The first case he was indef blocked for sock. How much good will do we have to have? [[User:Igorberger|Igor Berger]] ([[User talk:Igorberger|talk]]) 22:08, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
:::I don't know, Igor; I'm not familiar enough with this case to comment. In general, though, you need pretty compelling evidence to get a sock accusation to stick, and even then it sometimes gets [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Mantanmoreland|ignored]]. Unless you've got a smoking gun, better to focus on the edits rather than the editor; if they're violating policy, call them on that, rather than focus on who you think they are. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 22:15, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Barneca, what is your opnion on removing speedy? If a anon ip with no edit history puts a speedy on an article that you know does not meet the cretiria, do nonadmins have to wait for an admin to remove the template and should use hangon? I saw editors remove it and recomnd AfD, not entertain the abusive vandalism. I usually do the same, unless it is established editor. [[User:Igorberger|Igor Berger]] ([[User talk:Igorberger|talk]]) 20:08, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
:If you read the text in the speedy tag, ''anyone'' except the creator of the article is allowed to remove a speedy tag (even much-maligned IP editors). Speedy tags are supposed to be noncontroversial; if someone else besides the article creator disagrees, it isn't noncontroversial. Oh! I see now why you brought this up! I gave the user above bad advice; I had it in my head that they had created the article, but I see now that they didn't, so yes, they could have removed it themselves. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 20:32, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
::Actually the editor who tagged it speedy is established editor, so I would be careful just removing it without some discussion with the editor first. Maybe drop the editor a note on his talk page asking him to AfD it or put hangon, or both. Or you can be [[WP:BOLD]], [[User:Igorberger|Igor Berger]] ([[User talk:Igorberger|talk]]) 20:53, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
:::Established editor or not, anyone besides the original author is allowed to user their own judgement and disagree with (and hence remove) a speedy. Removing a speedy '''does not''' mean you think it was vandalism, or placed in bad faith, or anything. It just means you don't think it meets the [[WP:CSD|criteria]]. That said, I always leave a long edit summary, or a note on the editor's talk page, with an explanation of why I removed it, and a suggestion they can take it to AfD instead. Discussion is always good, but in this case it doesn't need to happen before you remove the tag yourself. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 20:57, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
::::I agree, but if you are a new editor at Wikipedia removing a speedy template placed by an established editor, even if you did not create the article, may not be a good thing per spirit of the law not the policy. Better err on the grounds of caution than get [[WP:ABF]] by the established editor. Anyway, to remove once is okay, but do not edit war with the established editor. Check editors contributions to see who you are working with. You might be reverting and edit warring with Barneca not knowing he is an admin. That will be a good candidate for a block! [[User:Igorberger|Igor Berger]] ([[User talk:Igorberger|talk]]) 21:23, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
:::::You can't put a speedy tag back once it's been removed by someone. There's no edit war, there's no risk of blocking. The '''only''' situation I can think of where removing a speedy tag on an article you didn't create could get you in any kind of trouble, is if you were doing it with the intention of disruption; i.e. removing ALL speedy tags at [[CAT:CSD]] indiscriminantly, or following one particular editor around and removing all of their speedy tags. If anyone ever removed a speedy tag I put on an article, I'd either drop it or take it to AfD. There's really no other recourse. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 21:30, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
::::::In fact, removing a speedy tag you disagree with not only doesn't violate the spirit of the policy, it is actively within the spirit of the law. Speedy deletion has a very narrow range of application. If the article doesn't meet one of the [[WP:CSD]] criteria, it should have the tag removed. Speedy deletes are supposed to be noncontroversial. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 21:33, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
:::::::Anyway, this is my opinion based on my personal experiences at Wikipedia, and it is not a policy; Each editor can decide for themselves what is best for them. But as Barneca just said, get familiar with what can be deleted under speedy criteria. [[User:Igorberger|Igor Berger]] ([[User talk:Igorberger|talk]]) 21:40, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
::::::::Yeah, I should have mentioned, there's nothing ''wrong'' with your approach, just that it isn't ''necessary''. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 21:43, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::I should have said do not edit war with a cranky admin, not make sure you are not reverting an admin..:) [[User:Igorberger|Igor Berger]] ([[User talk:Igorberger|talk]]) 21:49, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

:::::::::::Pre-emptive; I've seen page-move vandals vandalizing user pages of admins before, and since I'm starting to attract unwanted attention, I thought it would be prudent to avoid discovering I'd been moved to [[User:Barneca is an evil admin and also mean]] overnight.

== Regarding IP user comments ==

You recently addressed an issue with an IP user's comments on my talk page [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:TRTX&diff=prev&oldid=204976834] as a refresher. I was wondering if you'd had a chance to review the current situation at [[List of songs in Rock Band]]. The user continues to voice a concern (only via user talk pages, nothing mentioned in the article talk itself) reagring my supposed "ownership" of the article. I know I'm quite active in that article, but I never make significant changes to content without first requesting feedback...nor am I the only "regular" editor to that article. Overall, the user's attitude seems rather abbrasive, and I feel he or she is using their anon IP identity as a means of shielding themselves from recourse for their actions. On more than one occasion he or she has voiced a concern that I am overlooking their opinion simply because they are an IP, and that they are upset they are unable to edit the article because of it's protection status (something I was not involved in)...yet they actively refused to create a user account.
In summation, I'd greatly appreciate if you had time to assess the current behavior in the article in question. I've been a regular editor to that article for some time. Yet this is the first time I've heard any sort of complaint regarding my behavior. '''[[User:TRTX|TRTX]] <sup><small>[[User_talk:TRTX|T]] / [[Special:Contributions/TRTX|C]]</small></sup>''' 05:34, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

:I had not planned to review that situation in detail unless the IP asked; when I asked on their talk page what the actual problem was, they didn't reply. However, if you'd like, I'll take a look at what's going on.
:The talk page looks long, and I have to admit I don't have any great desire to read thru the whole thing and become an expert on the subject. Would you mind summarizing (just a few sentences, to point me in the right direction) which topics seem to be the problem, what your opinion is, and what you think their opinion is? I just popped on today to check email and my talk page, but I'll look into it tomorrow. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 16:22, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

::Sure. Back in March there was a list of songs uncovered within content available for download. The list was covered in several gaming sites, and was confirmed to exist by the developers and distributors of the game. After much discussion, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_songs_in_Rock_Band#Songs_listed_in_DLC_Files the following section was added]. There was a consensus formed regarding the best way to present the information, and it's been that way for a while. Recently the IP user has voiced a concern with the way the section is maintained, and has been addressed by a number of regular editors. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:List_of_songs_in_Rock_Band#Behind_Blue_Eyes_.26_Other_Song.2FArtist_debates], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:List_of_songs_in_Rock_Band#Updated_Leaked_List] are the more recent discussions in which the issue has been discussed. There's some discussions regarding the section and whether information should be integrated.
::My opinion is keep the list as it appeared (those songs which were not already in the game or confirmed at the time of the discovery) and keep it seperate as an entry regarding the event moreso than the titles. My understanding of the IP editors view is that there are some assumptions that can be safely made (including artists), and if the data is verifiable enough to appear in the article, it should be enough to integrate it with other announced releases. Hopefully the two discussions can paint a more detailed picture of the opinions of editors that aren't me or the IP user.. '''[[User:TRTX|TRTX]] <sup><small>[[User_talk:TRTX|T]] / [[Special:Contributions/TRTX|C]]</small></sup>''' 18:08, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
:::I've commented on the talk page of the article. Let me know here, or there, if you have any questions, or if problems aren't being resolved thru discussion. I couldn't see anything you've done wrong. I suspect the IP was frustrated at being unable to edit the article, and you were a convenient target of his anger. But really, that's just me playing [[Dr. Phil]]. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca#top|talk]]) 17:32, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
