== Singer's Midgets deletion ==


== Uni High ==
Hello. I see you speedily deleted the article ] on October 4. Just out of curiosity, would I be able to get a copy of that article? The Singer Midgets were a pretty important performing troupe in the 1930s (they have their own entry in this ), and I think they should be covered in Misplaced Pages somewhere. ]''']''' 03:17, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:Sure thing. I will email it to you in a few minutes. ] 04:42, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::Thanks a lot. Would it be possible for me to start a new article on the topic? I'm confident that, with a little research, I can write something that's fully compliant with all policies and guidelines. ]''']''' 20:13, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:::That's fine, Zagalejo. I deleted the article on the merits of that particular version and it doesn't prejudice any future article on the same subject, so if you want to write a new one you're most welcome to do so. ] 08:37, 2 December 2008 (UTC)


I think that if I add the list of the full 9 cast, the UHS wikipedia page will be better informed about the musicals. It's not really senseless information. Thanks :)

== Can I Have My Text back? ==
Hi Sarah,


{{Talkback|camabap}}
Would you mind unprotecting the ] article? I'd like to move it to ]; because there are no other lists of television stations in North America on Misplaced Pages, the method of sorting should not be included in the title. I would also like to add a navbox at the bottom. No one seems to have been working out the problem for which you originally protected the article; there has been literally no discussion on the talk page.

I will keep an eye on the page and hopefully the user that kept changing the information over and over and over to the copyrighted Nielsen information won't start up again.

:No worries. It's been a couple of weeks so it's probably worth giving unprotecting a chance. I've added it to my watchlist and will try to keep an eye on it but please don't hesitate to give me a yell if need be as I'm quite happy to block or reprotect it immediately if they start up again.

As I expressed at ] I found the discussion at ] mysterious. I've interacted with "Topology expert" for a number of months. I followed the link from your allegation of "role-playing" and I couldn't understand what you meant by that. Can you explain? ] (]) 19:03, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
:No, I can't, sorry, for reasons I think would be quite obvious to anyone who looked through his non-article edits. ] 22:14, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, I've seen a number of his talk page edits over a number of months, and none of those make it "quite obvious" why you can't explain your statement that he's "role-playing". ] (]) 23:20, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
:Because I think it would violate policy and he has already accused me of "outing" him so perhaps you could ask him? If you can't read things like his contributions to the Wikiquette page where he sounds like a kid in a school ground choosing which side to take and work out what's going on here then that's your problem and I'm just not prepared to spell it out for you for the simple reasons of policy and basic common sense. "Obviously a competent professional in his field" my arse. I'm not really interested in continuing this discussion with you and I'm going offline now so won't be responding further. Thanks, ] 01:10, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
::: I agree that he's a hothead and sometimes seems childish, but your comment that I am unable to understand his contributions a "Wikiquette page" seems to presuppose that I'm aware of such contributions. I have looked at his edit history somewhat, but guessing just which of his writings you have in mind is more than I should need to do, when all you've said is "non-article edits". ] (]) 01:43, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
::::Because I'm not just talking about the WQ edits, I'm talking about his non-article edits in general and the WQ edits are just one example. I reviewed a very large number of his non-article edits was left with certain beliefs regarding this editor. His school yard behaviour on WQ is just one example. ] 01:53, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
:Wow, I just noticed that you unblocked him without bothering to discuss it on AN or with the blocking admin. That's extraordinarily poor judgment, Michael. I think there's been sufficient ArbCom cases about admins doing just that sort of thing that have resulted in desysopps that this sort of wildly maverick behaviour had been drummed out of admins. I'm really quite shocked that you would storm in and, by your own admission, not understand the block or the discussion and overturn it anyway without bothering to discuss it with the blocking administrator. I really think you need to read up on the blocking policy which quite clearly says: "In general, administrators should avoid unblocking users without first attempting to contact the blocking administrator and discuss the matter with them. If the blocking administrator is not available, or if the administrators cannot come to an agreement, then a discussion at the administrators' noticeboard is recommended." ] 01:23, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
:"Those who blocked him" (you do realise, only one person blocked him, right? There was not group decision to block and I didn't even know he had been blocked until I logged on this morning) "disrespectful to me" (you weren't involved so I can't possibly understand how you were disrespected but for arguments sake, IF it WAS disrespectful to you then you had no business whatsoever overturning the block! Hello? You don't realise that it should be left to a neutral admin who doesn't feel disrespected???) I'm seriously worried about you and your behaviour in this case. ] 01:37, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Sarah, <s>I see that you have about 750 content edits over the last year, the vast majority of which are merely reverts of vandalism. I recommend you try to remember what's important here: content, not politics. That's my concern with your activity. Now,</s> would you be willing to share with me why you are concerned about my activities? ] <sup>]</sup> 14:59, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

:Look Jonathon, I have spent most of the last year trying to extricate myself from the project. I have gone for days, weeks, without editing at all, only to return when people (like you, for example) have contacted me here, via email, gtalk or WMA asking me to look into something. You know nothing about work that I continue to do for this project that is not visible on site and I don't see why I need to explain or justify myself to you. I feel more than entitled to express my opinion where and how I wish and I don't really see why I need to answer to you or why you think it appropriate to investigate a long standing admin who has not put themselves forward for an election or any other elevated access levels. It amuses me that you're drama mongering over my edit distribution when you yourself have contacted me privately asking me to specifically participate in "politics" (yet never ask me to look at an article matter)! Your campaigning against Elonka, the Slrubenstein RFC, the Pcarbonn AN ban discussion etc etc. (Please note that like Durova I keep complete records of gtalk transcripts and emails) If you don't like me involved in politics and would rather I focus on articles then don't contact me and ask me to participate in political matters! Otherwise you're looking pretty hypocritical. I have done a lot of work on this project over a long period of time and if I happen to see something on one of the noticeboards that interests me or I have something to say then I will continue to do so without regard for your approval. I am not running for arbcom or any other position or trying to gain access to some powerful tools so I feel that my edit distribution and how I spend my time when I do decide to log onto Misplaced Pages really has nothing to do with you. And I would ask you to please keep your drama mongering off my talk page; it doesn't interest me one iota and won't influence what I do or do not do at all. I have asked you before to leave me alone. I accept you contacting me for content matters and admin matters requiring we interact but I am not interested in your drama mongering so kindly refrain from trying to stir me up and suck me into your latest drama. If you have a problem with my editing then I would ask you to file an RfC rather than come here because I'm really not interested in your views of me or your advice or "recommendations" and I think I've made that more than clear in the past.
]
:Why am I concerned about your activities? Because you have requested the community assign you to the Arbitration Committee and I don't trust you at all; more than that, I ''mistrust'' you. You having access to the ArbCom mailing list and its archives, the ArbCom wiki, checkuser, oversight and so forth is simply unacceptable in my opinion. I am grateful that overall the community appears to agree that you are not an acceptable candidate because were you to be elected to the committee I would seriously be considering whether I could continue to support this project (and I don't say that lightly - there is literally no other candidate this year that I feel that strongly about). Let me be really clear here: I do not trust you at all. I do not trust you with the additional tools. I especially do not trust you with the privileged information that passes through the committee. I do not trust you with the political influence that goes hand-in-hand with the committee. It's as simple as that. For as long as I see you trying to stir up drama, meddling, using back channels to try to influence people and desperately trying to blow with the breeze of popular opinion I will not trust you with any elevated access. ] 01:58, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

:*For my 2 cents Jehochman I have also voted in opposition to you (as have 104 others to date) and I think Sarah has given you a most comprehensive answer here. I'm sorry but it appears particularly underhanded for you to come here with your question above as a direct correlation of her vote at the arbcom elections and it smacks of a vindictive pursuit! Sarah is extra-ordinarily well regarded and trusted at the project; she has an extra-ordinary positive history; she is entitled to vote in whatever way she likes; and she is not accountable to anyone for the amount of edits she has made or is making. Indeed if she had only made one useful edit; one useful admin action; or made only one !vote; her continuation at this project coupled with her well-thought out honesty (even if against the desires of administrators she has nominated) is a very worthwhile addition. To my mind there are many many users at this project that want her to continue as a part of it and I would ask that you do her the courtesy of leaving her alone as she has requested of you now many times.--] <sup>]</sup> 02:31, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
:**The original post in this thread was the final straw in convincing me this sort of attitude is not what we need on ArbCom. There's a definite condescension there that reminded me rather too much of some of the self-aggrandising comments I'd seen on IRC a couple of months ago, and does seem ironic considering how many dramas the original poster has either initiated or become the centre of. As someone aware of Sarah's significant offline activities in furtherance of the project, I pretty much second everything VS just said. ] 05:43, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
