	===FYI===
	Tobias, I have crossposted the following summary at the talk pages of all involved parties. Please review and comment if necessary.
	#The stub about Eisenkappl, which Tobias created, was by ] on June 30. Jim explained that the deletion was due to the stub not providing enough information for a reader to understand what the stub's subject was. This is a valid reason, however, it was not explained in the deletion summary.
	#Tobias re-created this article and moved it to ], making an inflammatory edit summary ("fight against admin power abuse...") in the process. While making a summary like this is not constructive, it should be understood that it was made in response to Jim's deletion, for which no reason was given.
	#Tobias later a "this user is a deletionist" note to Jim's user page. Again, this was not very constructive; Tobias should have requested a reason for the stub's deletion instead of losing temper.
	#The new stub on Bad Eisenkappel was by ]. No reason for deletion was given in the edit summary.
	#InShaneee then Tobias for 48&nbsp;hours for "vandalism, personal attacks". When I asked for details, InShanee that Tobias was blocked for "disruption" and "for placing "this user is a deletionist" on other people's userpages". While the latter is true, the former referred to moving Eisenkappel to ''Bad'' Eisenkappel. While I see how such a move can be interpreted as intentional vandalism, the "Bad" portion is actually a part of this village's name, as a would attest.
	#At this point of time, the situation from Tobias's perspective looked very much like admin abuse&mdash;stubs he created were deleted by two different admins, both of whom gave no reasons for deletion. Tobias himself was blocked for "vandalism/disruption", the meaning of which was also not explained. of Tobias's is a good illustration of the way he felt.
	#A moment later, Tobias was of violating ]&mdash;no details provided.
	#Understandably, Tobias's aggravation .
	#InShanee Tobias's talk page in order to prevent him from removing the warnings and his block for incivility.
	#In response to his talk page being protected and his account being blocked, Tobias launched an . While this was a direct violation of sockpuppeting guidelines, the user could not contend his block from his account as his talk page was blocked from editing at that point.
	#In response, Tobias's user page was by ] and his block was for sockpuppetry.
	#On July 2, ] account was created. Soon after it was by Pschemp as a sockpuppet of Tobias and blocked. According to Tobias's email communication to me, Hauke is a friend of his, ''not'' a sockpuppet account. I asked Tobias to stop sockpuppetry on June 30, no matter how unfair the situation seemed to him, to which he agreed.
	Summarizing the situation: while I in no way want to defend Tobias's less than stellar behavior in response to the accusations against him, I can see the situation from his perspective. Hopefully, this summary will allow you to do the same. I cannot, however, justify the behavior of the administrators involved in this case. Instead of trying to study the situation and finding out the cause of Tobias's aggravated response to the actions against his, the administrators pretty much reacted on emotion, thus complicating and elevating the situation, instead of trying to relieve it. Denying the user his right to contend his block by blocking both his talk and user pages is especially worrisome.
	My opinion is that both sides largely ignored ], refusing to listen each other. I thus urge the involved parties to shorten Tobias's block from unbelievable six weeks to a total of seven days (three of which he has already served) for not assuming good faith, for refusing to inquire about sanctions against him at the earlier stage of the conflict and resorting to inflammatory edit summaries, and for failure to challenge his block through legitimate means (such as placing an unblock template request at his user/talk page when it was still possible). I ask Tobias to apologize to the people to whom his was incivil. I also urge ], ], and ] to apologize to Tobias for not providing the reason for their actions and to impose a self-block for refusing to assume good faith, for acting on emotions instead of reason, and for denying the user right to be heard through his talk page.
	Being a proud Misplaced Pages administrator myself, I would not ask anyone to do something that I personally would not be ready to do in a similar situation.

	Ezhiki, thanks for the summary. The following is nonsense:
	:and for failure to challenge his block through legitimate means (such as placing an unblock template request at his user/talk page when it was still possible)
	19:36 i was blocked. around 19:38 i found out about this. 19:40 my talk was proteted. Between 19:38 and 19:40 I did not "challenge" my block by illegitimate as your post implies. I did not challenge it at all. I will have a look, when I started challenging it. ] ] 15:37, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

	Ezhiki,
	*point 5 "While the latter is true" - (for placing "this user is a deletionist" on other people's userpages) - userpageS - please review
	*point 10 "''anon IP ]. While this was a direct violation of sockpuppeting guidelines,''" - which guideline? was it a campaign?
	*point 12 "I asked Tobias to stop sockpuppetry on June 30, no matter how unfair the situation seemed to him, to which he agreed." - I did not agree. I could not agree to stop something I have not done.
	=== Removing warnings ===
	Just to be clear Tobias, the history shows you removed warnings: is one such removal, and there are others in the history as well. Do not remove warnings from admins without giving evidence that you have read, understood, and internalised them, (using an incivil edit comment as you did in several cases does not show you've internalised, rather it shows rejection) and when you're blocked, don't remove them at all, or in either case you may be subject to further blocking. Removing this warning, for that is what it is, make no mistake, a warning, will get you a longer block than you have now. If you want to lessen your block you have to go the other way, show that you understand that you have an issue to correct, and show that you intend to act civilly in future. '''<font color="green">]</font>]''']: ]/] 20:44, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
	*the history shows i removed context-free nonsense in the above mentioned case. Where did i vandalize? Please tell me.
	*''and there are others in the history as well.'' - please provide diffs.
	*''Do not remove warnings from admins without giving evidence that you have read, understood, and internalised them,'' maybe you make sure admins 1) write no nonsense 2) admins are marked as admins 3) make sure that everyone knows that removing a warning by an admin is forbidden by some policy XY.
	*''using an incivil edit comment as you did in several cases does not show you've internalised, rather it shows rejection'' - I reject admin right abuses. I reject a two class wiki-society. I reject deletions by admins without notification. I reject being acused of vandalism if i did not vandalize. I reject being told I made WP:POINT if I didnt. I reject being accused of sockpuppeting if I didnt. I reject promotion of physical violence, esp. by admins. As Ezhiki said: I am not an Angel. I am sometimes harsh. I am not proud of this. But I am proud not to do the things that I said I reject. And I am proud that I can settle things without being pointed to WP:CIVILTY by uninvolved 3rd parties. Sometimes things are settled allready, but the 3rd party stays and makes more trouble than originally existed. ] ] 21:20, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
	**The removals are there in the history for you or anyone to see but here's another removal: A civility warning is not "nonsense", it's something to take very seriously. It is your responsibility to be aware of policy and when you get a warning, if you're unsure, ask politely for clarification instead of removing the warning with a profane summary. I think there's not much more new to say here but I'll repeat what I said before, you've shown no previous evidence of internalising what the issue is, and your words above show no new evidence. The block length seems justified to me, barring some change in your approach, I won't be supporting any reduction. '''<font color="green">]</font>]''']: ]/] 22:02, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
	***the diff you bring is actually the same removal. The stuff written was nonsense to me. InShaneee could have provided more context instead of simply rv and post the warning again. You failed to provide 1) the policy that removing of a warning is forbidden 2) that I was aware of this policy.
	***please provide diffs of other instances where I removed warnings. Should be easy for you since you wrote about their existene only short time ago.
	***I disagree with your position that it is up to me to be aware of all policies.
	****''I think there's not much more new to say here''
	***bad that you are unable to do so.
	****but I'll repeat what I said before
	***you better would save your time and invent something new
	****you've shown no previous evidence of internalising what the issue is
	***the issue is me being blocked for creating ]. Did your brain internalise that? the issue is me being accused of vandalism. No evidene for this until now. The issue is me being accused of sockpuppetry - unproven. The issue is admins making false claims and promoting physical violence. The issue is admin right abuse. ] ] 22:54, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
	=== Arda River ===
	move to ] ] ] 04:06, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
	I think it was OK prior to that disambiguation. The Arda River in Bulgaria is a major river, 290 km long, while the one in Italy is a minor tributary located in a single province. In my opinion the ] should be at ], and a note should be put at the top, just like it used to be. We don't need overdisambiguation in such cases when there's one dominant meaning (Google test, Britannica has the Bulgarian and Greek river at ''Arda River'' and doesn't mention the Italian one). '']]]'' 10:30, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	How about as a middle postion: ] as redirect to ]? This would still force people a little bit to precisley wikilink to one of these rivers, which is my main concern. Otherwise, with your proposal, one cannot be very sure whether all the what-links-here-links are correct. ] ] 21:51, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	: Oh well, we'd have to change all the pages linking to ] anyway. You mean something like:
	: {{cquote|''Arda River redirects here. For the river in Italy, see ].''}}
	: This would be OK, though I don't think it makes more sense then simply having the Bulgarian and Greek one at 'Arda River'. I'd support both and I'm leaving it up to you to decide, but I still like my idea a little better :) '']]]'' 10:38, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
	If I would not be blocked I would implement the middle position with ''Arda River redirects here. For the river in Italy, see ].'' (there must be a template for this). I think I like this position the best. Hopefully this does not mean the middle has moved now ;-). best regards ] ] 11:16, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
	=== Stories ===
	====Police department====
	The traffic light switched to red, so Tim stopped the car. On the other side of the street he saw a woman running in front of one policeman. He knocked her down, moved her dress up and started raping her. Tim saw nobody else on the crossroad. He could not stand it and crossed the street even if he already was told not to do so several times before. Aproaching the policeman he yelled: 'Against raping! Stop police rapes'. When he arrived the policeman was already gone.
	...
	Suddenly another policeman arrived. He jailed Tim. He also cut off the regular phone line which normally would be used to appeal. The only thing he was allowed to was writing letters by hand. He wrote a letter to his home, telling that he was jailed. He had a mobile phone, which the policeman could not take away. He sent a SMS to his home. His jail sentence was extended. He sent SMS to friends of him asking them to contact different places for to help to review his case. When the friends did so they were jailed too.
	He sent a SMS to the mayor of the city, not for that he would review his case, but to make sure the mayor at least would know what was going on in the police department.
	====Invasion====
	British and US invaded Iraq with false allegations

	=== Moving forward ===
	I hope you are willing to read this. I know you do not think much of me, given my previous block of you, but from my side at least, I still consider myself neutral to you despite what happened previously. I'm not you friend, but neither am I your enemy.
	I have, however, been following the current situation since I saw it discussed on the admin notice board. And it is troubling to see a dedicated editor get blocked for so long over what appears to have originally been a misunderstanding. You may be a difficult user at times, IMHO, but I have never had reason to doubt you act in good faith towards the betterment of the project.
	I'm not going to jump into the middle of this and unblock you, for reasons I will get to. I do however want to give you some advice, and maybe get you thinking about what happens next. If you choose to ignore me, so be it.
	The key thing is, the way you are acting right now is getting you nowhere, and is not likely to get you anywhere. You are raging against the injustices you percieve, but raging is not going to get you unblocked. Especially when you refuse to ackowledge any responsibility in the situation.
	The original block may have been caused by a misunderstanding over the whole "Bad XXX" page name, but the extensions were not a misunderstanding. A blocked user is not allowed to edit except their talk page. Period. Using IP addresses while blocked to edit '''any''' other page is block evasion, and is indeed grounds for block extension. Using IP addresses while blocked '''is''' sock-puppetry. I have no idea if it's written down (and if it's not, it should be), but block evasion like this is definitely grounds for block extension. The simple fact of editing while blocked is the action that provides for the extension. If users were allowed to simply evade blocks at will, blocks become meaningless. So evasion of blocks cannot and is not tolerated. And, while it likely was indeed unintensional, you did indeed evade your block. IMHO, whether the original block was valid or not, the extensions were totally valid given your actions after the block. There are lots of avenues open to protest invalid blocks. Evasion cannot be one of them.
	So it comes to what do you want to see happen next? If you want your block to stand for eight weeks, with you continuing to rage against it the whole time, then continue as you are, because that is the result you are headed towards.
	If however, you want to be unblocked sooner, then IMHO you need to do several different things. Things that may be difficult for you.
	First you have got to acknowledge that your actions after the first block were wrong. Unknowing or not, you cannot evade blocks. Acknowledge that, and commit to avoiding a repeat of such evasion in the future, and you may very well find an admin willing to shorten your blocks. Blocks are meant to be preventetive, not puntative, so if it's known that your behaviour that caused the block (the extensions, specifically) is ackowledged and will not be repeated, then the reason for such a long block becomes much less.
	One breif digression. I am focusing in on you, and your actions, because I see you as the one I could help with my advice. If you truely beleive that admins have violated policy, then you will need to take that up with the Arbitration Committee. They are the ones with the power to sanction admins. So please do not ask '''me''' to take actions against them, as I'm not prepared to do so.
	But that aside, there's another lesson that I would hope you could take out of all this. The whole WP:CIVIL thing. This is what got you in trouble before, and I see this as your biggest problem. As an example, I see from your page that once again you've been asked not to use a diminuative on someone. I would suggest at this point that you seriously rethink your casual use of diminuatives of other people's names. Some, like me don't really care. Others, however, have shown that it annoys or offends them. This has now, in part or in whole, gotten you into trouble at '''least''' twice, and continuing this practice is likely to get you more trouble in the future.
	I have more to say, but I think I will end this for now. Let's first see if you even read and absorb anything I am writing. If you are just going to dismiss my comments, then there's not much point in my spending all this time typing them up. - ] 14:06, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	Dear Texy,
	I never stopped talking, I never did not read anything people posted to my talk page, at least not on purpose. I confirm, I have read your text.
	* I know you do not think much of me, given my previous block of you,
	**not true. I think the block was unfair, but at least you took lot of time to talk with me. Finally you stopped, but on the other hand I think I did not present the ].
	**what is true: I do not think much of you because I don't know you much
	*it is troubling to see a dedicated editor get blocked for so long over what appears to have originally been a misunderstanding.
	**anybody to undelete ]?
	*You may be a difficult user at times, IMHO, but I have never had reason to doubt you act in good faith towards the betterment of the project.
	**fully agree.
	*The key thing is, the way you are acting right now is getting you nowhere,
	**I don't care. If the project-admins decide to be unfair they are free to do so. I will not say anything I do not believe in.
	*Block evasion
	**I will review this. Maybe you are right and I unintentionally violated a policy. I am not sure whether this in turn warrants an extension.
	*I cannot promise to never violate policies in the future. How can I if policies are changed from time to time and new policies introduced. If there would be a policy "you have to post lies on your user page" - I would on purpose violate this policy.
	*Using IP addresses while blocked to edit '''any''' other page is block evasion, and is indeed grounds for block extension.
	**IMO this is not true for own talk
	*Using IP addresses while blocked '''is''' sock-puppetry.
	**re-read ]
	*Blocks are meant to be preventetive, not puntative,
	**punification can be interpreted as prevention. Otherwise I do not see why I am only blocked for 8 weeks. If it is because for WP:CIV I should be blocked until I promise not to violate this again.
	*so if it's known that your behaviour that caused the block (the extensions, specifically) is ackowledged and will not be repeated, then the reason for such a long block becomes much less.
	**extensions happened due to false allegations of Sock puppetry. I cannot hinder other people on the planet to create acounts or to post a message.
	---to be extended--- pls dont change
	: I'm gonna go ahead and respond, even though you are not totally done with your first response.
	: Knowing that you are reading this, and not dismission it, then let us continue.
	: I stopped communicating with you the first time because you make it very difficult at times to do so. At the time I reached a point where it was too much effort to continue, so I just let the whole thing fall off.
	: One of the big things that you do to make things difficult is that you parse every word that people write, looking for the slighest thing that is not perfectly correct, or smallest thing not stated well. Many people like to converse at a casual level, where we do not want to have to read over what we write five to six times to try to make sure we did not misstate or mistype something. But at times, to converse with you, that level of care almost has to be taken. It's tiring to do that, and some people can only doit so long before they say "enough". I reached that level last time and just moved on to other things where I did not have to be paranoid about how I phrased everything I wrote.
	: Back to the current situation. I now see one of the key problems. You are getting hung up over the definition of "Sock Puppet". I did glance back over the page, and you are correct that it does not expressly refer to IP hopping as sock puppetry. But given the way many admins view IP hopping, it likely should. In the end though IP hopping fulfills the spirit of the definition of Sock Puppetry, whether or not it is explicitly listed in the current definition. Sock Puppetry, when used as a negative term, refers to using multiple identities to evade the rules of the project. And "multiple identities" does not have to mean multiple accounts, it can mean multiple IPs. Again, I'm arguing the spirit of the rule, not the letter.
	: In the end though, your block was extended for evasion. It was called Sock Puppetry because that's a convinient term. And by the spirit of the definition, Sock Puppetry is really not a false accusation, as you have been labeling it. I do beleive that, like the block evasion itself, it was an unintentional violation, but it is still not a false accusation. You used multiple IPs to evade your block. You were ultimately blocked for the '''evasion''', not '''sock puppetry''', whatever it was called when you were blocked.
	: You do have a point that using IPs to edit your own talk page would not be considered evasion. OTOH, making this point is a perfect example of what I was talking about a few paragraphs back. You pick apart what is said, and hit on anything that is not 100% true. Yeah. There is an exception that makes my comment not totally correct. But my point is still valid, even if there is a technicality in there. Jumping on the technicallity really does not invalidate my point. It only serves to make it difficult to keep up the conversation when minor flaws are jumped on like this.
	: On the WP:CIVIL issue I understand that you cannot promise never to violate it. But you need to understand that, whenever you do get off of being blocked, the WP:CIVIL thing is likely to be a continuing problem for you. You have gained a lot of attention with this whole incident. I suspect you are now on quite a few admin's watch lists. Which means that things that might have slipped past unnoticed before are much more likely to be noticed by the admins. Blocks of you for being uncivil are much more likely now. And I'm sorry, but IMHO you can indeed be quite uncivil at times.
	: Ultimately you were blocked for 48 hours for all the events that set this up, including the WP:CIVIL issue, and the rest of the 8 weeks were for the evasions. At this point I'm pretty sure you are not likely to repeat the whole evasions thing again. I would hope you would think about the whole WP:CIVIL thing, especially the use of diminuitives.
	: Enough for now. I definitely still have more to say, but much of it needs to wait to see how you respond to this current set of comments. - ] 16:34, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	*can you do me a favour and make Pschemp aware of by posting to ]? I am thinking about what you wrote, esp the spirit thing and that you think I may be on a lot of admins watch list right now. ] ] 17:28, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	: I will take a pass on that, sorry. I have, however, left a note for him letting him know that the section is here, right below this point.
	: Some more dialog, then.
	: Let me again stress that, IMHO, the ] page needs to be updated. It makes no mention of IP address socking, and admins are using the term to refer to that situation. So, in general, the page no longer totally reflects how the term is being used. And on WP, in a situation like this, it's much easier, and cleaner, to update the page to reflect the new reality than to force people back to older behaviours. Especially when the new reality makes sense (back to the spirit of the page thing).
	::agree should be updated, if handled like you say. Otherwise Pschemp and InShaneee should be updated
	: And I want to again stress that your block was ultimately extended for the evasions, not the "sock puppetry" itself. Using multiple identities, by itself, is not an improper action. It's using those identities to do actions that are iproper that is the problem. And in that case you have an underlying action. In your case, the evasion.
	::wrong. It was also extended for edits by User:Hauke, User:Chrisjj2
	: Returning to the issue of "moving forward", I have to wonder what you currently want. Do you want to be unblocked? Because you've really done nothing positive towards making that happen. That's what I meant with my comment about you just raging here. I'm not telling you to stiffle yourself about the admins, if you truely beleive yourself wronged. And I did say that, as far as I can see, the original block came out of a misunderstanding of the "Bad" prefix you placed on that article.
	::what I want? Jusitice? Admin abuses stopped? ] and the redirects undeleted. I have done nothing positiv? If this is your opinion - fine, it's yours, and you can go to bed with it.
	: But that aside, where does raging here on your talk get you? As far as I can see, it gets you continued blocked for the next 8 weeks. And maybe raging serves to let you vent. And that's not necessarily worthless thing. But if that's all you do, then be prepared to enjoy your 8 week break from the project.
	::I wanna make people aware of unjustice within wikipedia by WP admins. That's why I collected the evidences of policy violations by three of the admins. Now, may I ask you: Do YOU do anything towards to stop their violations? Do you do anything that injustice against me stops? Spirit: Is it the spirit of wikipedia to block editors for 8 weeks because of violations of policies they did not know? I knew sock puppetry was not allowed. I did not set up any new user account. But I still get blocked for sok puppetry.
	: OTOH, if you want the break shortened, there are possibilities. First off, you really need to calm down. Don't lose the complaints you have against certain admins, but lose your current anger. In the long run, the anger is simply not serving you well.
	:: right the anger is not serving me well. That's why I wrote something like "fight admin right abuses". I wanna stop these sources of anger. But it seems the admins stand united and give shelter to the abusers.
	: Then you need to understand what happened. And I really am referring to the block extensions more than the original block. Had it not been for the evasions, your block would be over already. Had it not been for the evasions, you might have been unblocked by one or more admins upon evaluation more fully of the circumstances of the original block. That's a "might have been", but I know that I for one see little improper in the extensions reguardless of the original block reasons. So once you earned the extensions, you made it a lot less likely you could be unblocked easily.
	::I violated a policy i did not knew. I am not an admin. But I am here, almost double the time the most abusing of the admins are (Pschemp, InShaneee). The admins should know the policies, they are admins. I will check how the policy were like when I joined.
	: And finally you need to learn how to work within the project to get what you want.
	::or leave
	: There are proper ways to protest deletions, to protest blocks, to seek sanctions for abuse of admin powers. You have used none of these methods. I will gladly tell you how you could/can use these avenues, if you wish.
	:: i saw how protest blocks work. you may remember. where could I protest deletions. I am allways willing to learn.
	: Finally for now, I will go ahead and offer you a taste of a carrot. (The blunt way I've been putting my opinions is the "stick") If you show me that you can calm down, and that you are learning some positive lessons from all this (I know you've learned some negative ones. :( ), then I will take your current block to the admin notice page and seek consensous on lowering it a good bit (I'm thinking of 1 week, total, instead of 8). OTOH, IMHO I see little to gain from letting you loose back into the project while you are still in a temper. But if you are more calm about things, then we shall see. - ] 19:31, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	:: I think I will not run around and shout if i would be unblocked today. In so far I calmed down already. Carrot is very good, banana would be even better. A good carrot would be if you offer to help to change/update policies and improve some of the processes here. I think this would be needed. You are maybe more in the politics here than me. And you are more civil, as is Ezhiki. You can maybe better reach the goal of policy change. At the end: I never wanted to be an admin. I am a simple ] ] 20:30, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	::: Ok. I was wrong again. I'm not done for the day. :)
	::::statements regarding future events are really another dimension. :)
	::: Protesting blocks did not work on my block because the admin who responded to your unblock request agreed that it was a fair block. I know full well that you still disagree with that point, and I '''really''' do not want to reopen that old discussion at this point. But before you evaded you had a very different set of circumstances on the current block. IMHO you might very well have gotten unblocked this time by a truely neutral admin. We're back to "Might have beens", though. Who knows. You right now have at least two admins who don't think that the original block this time was correct. (Me and Ezhiki) So despite the impression you may have from your first unblock attempt, we admins are far from all in step with each other.

	=== untrue statement by TexasAndroid ===
	I misread your request, end up fulfilling it anyway, but comment about how I didn't want to do it how I misread it. And I get an edit summary about an "untrue statement" by me. Yes, it was untrue, but it was a bloody mistake. I'm sorry for misreading your request.
	This is '''exactly''' what I was talking about when I said it was difficult to talk to you. You see something that is not perfect, and you attack it. That's twice so far today. I'm starting to wonder again why I bother making the effort with you. - ] 19:50, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	:what is bad, if you made an untrue statement? These things happen. But your statement put me in a bad light. The original fault was yours, not mine. Yes, you almost fullfilled my request anyway. And hey!!! I REALLY THANK YOU FOR THAT! - Will I get burned for yelling now?
	:the other thing I corrected today - it was really minor.
	:I think all you "be civil" people could relax a little. Maybe look why someone was uncivil. You can see from my user page that I collect admin rights abuses, especially speedy deletions just by discretion of an admin - if not covered by speedy policy. Jim was very nice to come to my talk page. Unfortunatly due to the block extensions made with wrong allegations by Admin Pschemp, I cannot talk with him. IMO it's allready bad that we have deletionists (as opposed to inclusionists), but admin speedies are another class. He came to my talk, that was really good. Pschemp on the other hand still did not explain to me what was meant by second warning. Instead ], a page I started which included what I found out about this term was speedy deleted. ... by Pschemp. ] ] 20:15, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

But I feel I have to go over anything I write to you with a fine tooth comb before posting it to make certain I don't give you anyything to attack. And you still find ways. Enough.

	===My offer===
	I made this awhile ago on ], but you seemed not have read it so I will repeat it. If you apologize for using sockpuppets, and remove your false accusations of admin abuse from your page, I will reduce your block. As for your claims that you didn't know about blocking policy, you quoted the blocking policy (saying I had violated it) on this page *days* before you claimed you did know about it. You have been editing here a long time and have over 24,000 edits. By that time you should be familiar with basic policies such as that. Also, your first article "Second Chance" was deleted under the deletion of AFD with a consensus of users. The one in wikipedia space was a copy of that and as such inappropriate and was a speedy. I'm sorry you don't like the fact that we can speedy delete things, but we can and that's the policy. I have said before that you can post an apology on your talk page, as I watch it, so please don't claim you can't communicate with me. ] | ] 20:47, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	(edit conflict)
	* I will not apologize for something I have not done. I will of course remove ANY false accusations of admin abuse or mark them as false accusations. "Second Chance" -> you mean Second warning. Yes it was a copy in the WP space. That is so because some of the delete votes in the regular space said it's not encyclopedic. Given the large amount of Google hits and around 50 or more % thereof in wikipedia I think there should be a place were people can learn what this means.
	*''I'm sorry you don't like the fact that we can speedy delete things, but we can and that's the policy.'' - You are misrepresenting things. I am infact happy you can speedy delete. But this should be done according to policy. The Eisenkappl stub had enough context to be expanded. And even more sure the ] had. Maybe at least on this front we can shorten things by undelete the latter? You can still vote this for AfD then, but speedy is just not covered by policy.
	*I claimed I cannot communicate with you? I wrote ''since I cannot edit other people's talk, I asked User:Ezhiki to post the following to User_talk:Pschemp. He replied he rather would not. So I post here.'' And ''I did not receive any respons to the email send by wikisystem 2006-07-05 09:45 to User:Pschemp, but see this User has already more than 50 edits since then. The email was a follows:'' And furthermore you stopped editing here except for posting extensions and except for correcting categorization.

	::I now have a checkuser in hand that shows that you did use those IP's to edit your userpage while blocked. Still going to deny you did that?] | ] 23:50, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
	::: Summarizing some of the lengthy back and forth I had with him earlier today... Conradi does not deny being the IPs. He does deny being the two other registered users that he was accused of being. He denies that using the IPs is "Sock Puppeting", and between that and the denial that he was the two actualy IDs is where he hangs his denial of SPing. And he does have a point on a technical basis. The page that defines SP makes specific mention of it being about multiple login IDs, and makes no mention of IPs being SP. My response was that, given how admins tend to view behaviours the same whether it's IDs or IPs, that in current usage IPs are just as much SP as IDs. But still, he does have a point on the technical denial.
	::: He has not denied the block evasion, but says he did not understand it was improper. Is it likely that such a long term user would not know of this? Not really. Is it possible? Certainly. If you concentrate yourself on article work and have no interest in the administrative side of the project, then it is definitely possible.
	::: And here is where it gets down to whether or not one beleives Conradi in his denials. And when you get right down to it, I do. He can be annoying. He can be extremely difficult to work with. But in the conflict I had with him a few months back over my blocking him, and in everything I see in this current confluct, I really have seen nothing to make me doubt the honesty of his statements (at least about his own knowledge/actions), and nothing to make me doubt that he has the best interests of the project at heart.
	::: At this point I beleive the current dispute is pretty much over, and really don't see a reason for the extended block. His original block time is now several days over, and his extension os for things that either are very unlikely to be repeated (IP evasion) or things that are IMHO most likely not him (the two other involved IDs). IMHO the block should be reduced to a total of one week, including time already spent blocked, and let run out in the next several days. - ] 02:03, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
	: I will gladly do that when I get a statement from him saying that he did use the IP socks, and that he understands that was wrong. Also that an edit summary like this (calling someone as asshole) is not acceptable. Simple solution. The whole point of a block is so a user can take some time off to consider his actions, it isn't punative. So far though, I have not seen one iota of remorse on this user's part, just more claims of admin abuse, wikilaywering and protestations the he didn't do anything wrong. I posted my actions on WP:ANI. If they were so out of line, the community would have commented then. ] | ] 03:02, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
	:: Tex is right: I never denied to have used IP edits. Yes I did. Yes I will not do it in that way again. remember: I got blocked, and only few moments after realizing this, my talk got protected. I did IP edit outside my user+talk page. With the rules I see now, I should not have done this. I also see, by the block evasion policy I probably should not IP edit my own user page. I disagree this is right. What I edited there was not a blockable act from the content point of view. I will less likely remove warnings in the future. I absolutely had no idea that this was forbidden. I still do not see _why_ it is forbidden. I mean they are in the hist anyway and if you delete them you somehow confirm you read them. Furthermore remember: one of the warnings called my actions vandalism. I did not WP:Vandalise. No diff was provided. One is allowed to remove personal attack. But if it comes from an admin one is not? ] ] 12:00, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

	I have reviewed this incident again and concur with Pschemp. Tobias, you are not showing any significant acknowledgement that you have erred, and no remorse for what you've done, and no reason for any admin to believe that you're not going to continue doing these unacceptable things. Pschemp's offer is fair and reasonable, and is what you should have to do to get unblocked early. Internalise that you are not participating in a civil manner, that the rules apply to you even if you don't know what they are, that it's not about admin oppression, and that you need to apologise, and then actually apologise, and I'd support a reduction. Continue with your current intransigence and I see no reason to reduce, and if it continues, every reason to lengthen your block. ++]: ]/] 04:03, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
	:If you like to be unjust - so be it. You are making untrue bad words about me - so be it. You still did not respond to my last posting to you - so be it. If you want to lengthen my block - so be it. I am not a dealer of my soul. You can't buy : apologize and then get unblocked earlier. I will not apologize for something I think I don't have to.

	I have a hard time squaring what you just told pschemp (for which she reduced your block and which reduction, assuming you meant what you said there, I concur with) with what you are saying in the above to me.

I'm hopeful you will work through them and be a valuable contributor, but as long as you continue to think admins doing their jobs are actually out to get you, it may be hard for you to do what you need to do.

I think Pschemp, InShaneee, Jimfbleak have issues to work through. But it seems you dont get this. Attacking my possible mistakes does not reduce yours.
	:''I'm hopeful you will work through them and be a valuable contributor'' - well if admins keep on violating policies I am much more likely to quit being a valuable contributor.

I feel like stalking, what do _you_ have to do with tango? What a coincidend that _you_ go to a page _I_ made.

	=== Checkuser.... ===
	Just an FYI. An official checkuser request has been ] this morning to try to once and for all settle the accusations about sockpuppetry between you and the Chrisjj2 and Hauke accounts. I myself have looked for the older checkuser that has been mentioned as linking the three accounts, but cannot find it. So hopefully this one can settle this once and for all. - ] 19:08, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
	: Heh. In America referring to someone by plain family name is a polite, not overly familiar, way to refer to someone. Shrug. So be it. I'll swap to using your personal name then.
	: As for the other two accounts, assuming that they are who you say they are (which is my current beleif), then they actually are a version of Meat Puppets. the only link I could find to a Meat Puppet definition is ]. As currently used meatpuppets (MP) are a much more grey area around here than sockpuppets (SP). With MP, there is actually an additional person behind the different account. With SP there is still only one person, no matter how many people it appears there are. So it's not as cut&dried a problem.
	: As an example of where MPing would be quite improper, consider most any of the polls run around the project on official matters. Let's say you had a totally non-notable band, with 5 members. The band creates a vanity page on the project. The page ends up on AFD, being polled for deletion. The band members, not wanting their page gone, talk to friends and family members and all quickly sign up for accounts just to say Keep on the AFD poll. They end up with 30-40 people saying to keep the page on the totally non-notable band, just because the band's members rallied friends and family. In the end, this is totally improper for a number of reasons, even if every account had a different person behind it. In a way, the extra people didn't care about the page on the project, they just cared about helping their friend/family. They were acting at the will of the friend/family member, and thus the "meatpuppet" label.
	: But it all gets back to action, same as with SP. There is nothing wrong with having multiple accounts on the project. There are a number of perfectly valid reasons why people do so. It's when people use those accounts for improper actions/reasons that it becomes SP.
	: Same with MP. Just because you got some friends to connect to speak for you does not, IMHO, make it improper. But when you get down to it, they did join the project for the purpose of speaking on your behalf. Which technically makes them acting for you, and thus MP. - ] 19:46, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
	I find family name using kind of cold, like you say, not overly familiar. In my daily life here nobody calls me Conradi. Once it happened in one company, where then it was short for Mr. Conradi. Maybe the boss had to speed up things, while at the same time using the given name would have been to informal.
	I perfectly understand this meat stuff. Here some more from my side: Hauke already anon edited before, I pointed him so often to WP that he started editing a tiny little bit. Chris did register around a year ago, but did not like WP very much.

	One issue I am having with tango.info as a source, is I can't work out how the "singer-ness" of singers is shown. If I could work out that the database is telling me "this person released 34 CDs ''in which they sang''" then I'd feel more comfortable updating the list of tango singers. At the moment, I am more comfortable with using todotango.com, for whom the biographies usually provide enough information to assert notability as a tango. And of course the other sources I have for tango outside Latin America (I was pleased with my Turkish finds... they seem to know how to sing a very good tango!) Could you explain to me how to work out from tango.info how many CDs (does that include LPs?) have been released by a tango musician purely as a singer? ] 12:32, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
	: I am not sure whether "Many tango musicians have been both instrumentalists and singers" is right. First lot's of musicians have not been singers. Second, those that are kown as singers, maybe were composers and lyricist, but are rarely known for being instrumatalists, except for guitar. Maybe I am just not aware of what they played else. I will look, how I can improve tango.info so that one can sort by number of tracks. Anyway, if you have a singer page and it says 20 tracks, he is likely notable. Currently the data is only CDs.

	:''Limited content is not in itself a reason to delete if there is enough context to allow expansion.''
	You violated WP:DP/speedy deletion. The criteria are not matched. You are not allowed to speedy delete stuff only because it is "one sentence" as you said in the del log. I am really pissed of.

	: Tobias, I am not the first to tell you this and I am sure I won't be the last: the article '''was not a valid stub'''. It was a single disconnected fact, barely a valid sentence, which contained insufficient information to establish the context. The solution was simply to creat a ''valid'' stub, '''which has already been done'''. If you can't be bothered to include enough information in an article that a busy admin can see what it's supposed ot be about, ] You have put ''massively'' more effort into argufying about this ] than you did into the article. What the hell is the point? A proper stub has now been created, there is an article three times the size of the one you created which (unlike yours) actually establishes what the fuck it's about, and you are ''still'' arguing about it! You seriously need ]. This has to be the most absurd dispute I can remember! As soon as you show evidence of climbing off the ceiling I'm sure someone will be along to unblock you, given your history of good contributions, but honestly the abuse and hysteria you have put out about this entirely routine deletion of a near-empty article, hundreds of not thousands of whihc get nuked every day, is baffling. I cannot remember another instance of a good faith contributor losing it to quite this degree over something so utterly trivial - which would have been fixed by simply re-creating the article with a bit more context. It's ludicrous. Go and have a beer or something. ] 21:51, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
	:::it provided enough conteXt to be expanded. So it was not a candidate for speedy direct admin deletion.

	:::: In ''your opinion'' as someone who already knew what it was about it provided enough context. In the opinion of the person who speedy tagged it, the admin who deleted it, and several (in fact almost all) the people who have reviewed it since, it did not. Where to turn next? That depends on what you want. If you want the existing stub reverted to your original sentence then edit away, but be prepared for it to be rapidly expanded or deleted again (either is valid from that strat point). If you want something else to happen you're going to have to tell us what it is, because as far as I can see we're all sitting here looking at the ''much better'' article which now exists and wondering why on earth you are still arguing. ] 14:12, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

	:::::::::: Yes, Tobias, I understood the part where you said you wanted it undeleted so that non-admins could see the history and yada yada, but given that there is ''nothing'' in the single dleeted edit which is not in the current article, and given that the article exists so there is no "volation" to undo, what is actually the purpose of adding the single deleted edit to the edit history? What does that achieve? Why have you spent so much time and effort to in the pursuit of ''nothing'' except having your name first on the article history? There are many admins who will happily undelete content just because people ask nicely, if it will achieve something, but this will achieve nothing at all in terms of the project, so if you want it done you need to give a credible reason. ] 18:52, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

I have been at fault for not letting you know in the first place why I deleted this, and you were at fault for being uncivil. The both of us have made mistakes regarding this situation, and it seems pointless to argue any further. After looking at this talkpage, the deletion review page and the shortlived RfC, we both have to conclude that it's just a very longwinded repetition of the same arguments.

	:Well, I can imagine how one can have tons of deletions. If you patrol recent new articles, for example, you are bound to encounter loads of crap. Start doing it regularly, and your deletions can easily outnumber your contributions. Same goes for AfD closure&mdash;if an article is voted to be deleted, someone has to delete it, and some people regularly close AfDs, which, of course, throughs their contributions/deletions ratio off balance.
	:As for your other question, we have the following deletion procedures: ] (+]&nbsp;& ] for cats and templates), ], and ]. I can't imagine how admins would be able to abuse AfD and Prod. Speedies, yes, those are not always as clear-cut. If an admin speedily deletes something, that something should very clearly fall under one or more of the speedy deletion criteria and should be specified in the deletion summary. If you feel that an article does not meet the speedy deletion criteria, you should bring this directly to the admin who deleted the page&mdash;the very least they can do is to restore it and put in on AfD instead. If for some reason they refuse to even hear you out, then ] is the best place to bring it to everyone's attention. Or, you can always re-write the article, expanding it in such a way that no one would be tempted to nominate it for deletion again.
	:For now, I suggest you read through ]&mdash;it's long, but it should answer most of your questions. If after reading it you still have any unanswered questions, feel free to ask me. If you disagree with some parts of that policy, you can always make a suggestion at ]; there are brief instructions there on how to best do it.

	::I've just read the debates about the Pilcomayo Department; sorry I didn't notice this was going on before. In my opinion, the original stub, while quite marginal, did not meet CSD A1. If it only were one sentence, I'd probably agree with SoothingR's logic, but it was properly tagged and categorized as well, thus sufficiently ''defining the article's title and its meaning'' to facilitate further expansion. I also don't understand SoothingR's reluctance to undelete the article and, if he believed he was right, to list in on AfD instead&mdash;even if CSD A1 were technically met, it's quite obvious that the topic was valid. I'm all for deleting extremely short articles such as this one myself, but only under the condition that no one else is interested in expanding them or in incorporating them into an existing scheme (this one obviously belongs to ]). I can see how this could piss Tobias off; after all, it's not the first time when his stubs are deleted per a CSD criterion, although, of course, I would recommend Tobias to create slightly longer stubs to avoid this from ever happening again.

	== Mails received ==
	I received two mails from Tobias which I am answering here.
	One I cannot quite determime what is being asked for and I reproduce it here in hopes it is of some help.
	:'' because of your block I cannot take measures to undo the following cut and paste move http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Tanaro_River&action=history additional would be nice if you inform http://en.wikipedia.org/User:Ian_Spackman of his possible pol violation. I did not find the pol, but think there must be one. ''
	:'' He also made a quite misleading statement at http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=User_talk:Tobias_Conradi&diff=68832292&oldid=68830829 which left the impression he fixed the wrong links. I just wanted to see what this helpful guy did else, clicked contribs and this way found out what he really did. I think this is really bad behavior of him.''
	:'' best regards Tobias''
	The other is (in its entireity):
	:'' is this is personal attack: http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Misplaced Pages:Deletion_review/Log/2006_August_8&diff=68649656&oldid=68627594 ''
	In answer, if I understand the question, yes, it is. Trialsanderrors in his statement is highlighting something that he feels is a personal attack you made, and correct (in my view) in his assessment that it indeed is a personal attack.

	:ad 2: I was referring to '''"No, that was a perfectly good call, you arrogant deletionist non-contributor."''' a statement made by Trialsanderrors in reply to Geogre.

If you are going to take action against an admin, then do so, either with an RfC or an RfArb.

	=== Some recent edits concern me ===
	Hello Tobias: I find some of these edits, or their summaries, of concern:
	(and many others in on the AWB talk page, in which you seem to be arguing with the developers and administrators of AWB about how they choose to administer their project and tool) Even when you're baited, as you were by Indon in the second one, it's important to remain civil. Please keep that in mind. ++]: ]/] 22:48, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
	=== AWB apparent harassment, unconsensual movement/renaming of provinces ===
	I see that you have continued to harass Martin, and snipe away at the AWB policy on many pages, some only faintly related. If you have a specific grievance with how AWB is administered by its author and the folks he has chosen to help him, use formal dispute resolution channels, but stop this sniping it is unacceptable harassment of another user. This is an official warning to you, Tobias, if you continue to harass or be unpleasant to the AWB folk, I will block you for it, and this is your last warning on this matter.
	I also got a note from one of the users you have been interacting unpleasantly with regarding indonesian provinces, aftre seeing my warning this user let me know how frustrating and unpleasant he finds working with you. Please be more collegial. This is an official warning to you, Tobias, if I see you acting the way you have been again, I will block you for that as well, and this is your last warning on this matter.
	Removal of this notice would constitute acknowledgement that it was read, but really, I'd far prefer you left it here, at least a while, for the benefit of other admins. If another admin pops by to take action and missed that you had already been warned, and only warns you, when I come back and see it, I'll be extending the length of your block for that.
	Please be more collegial. In looking through your contributions, in addition to these difficulties, I see lot and lots of contributions that seem to move the encyclopedia forward. So you clearly are doing good work. But no one gets a free pass, and your good work is outweighed by the grief you are causing others. Make no mistake, when people send emails, they are not happy at all with your ways. ++]: ]/] 13:13, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
	=== AWB ===
	You chose not to try to explain what you are trying to achieve, I was actually prepared to help you, I've been talking to Martin about what might be clarified to address what I think your concerns are. You could have dialoged with me, but instead without answering my good faith questions. Therefore you have read it and I will assume, internalised it. The next edit by you to any AWB related page that is in any way contentious, that anyone complains to me about, or that is a reversion of an edit, will result in a block, unless I see some evidence that you are working constructively to clarify matters with regard to AWB. Removal of this notice without a constructive answer will result in a longer block, if you do subsequently get blocked, than if you leave the notice in place because it is important that other admins be aware of the history here. ++]: ]/] 15:42, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
	=== Another civility warning (the latest in a considerable string) ===
	Tobias, I find these edits and quite incivil. There are others in your recent history. Stop being incivil, stop going on about how admins are all out to harass you, or that admins are stalking you, stop assuming bad faith on the part of every admin that warns you or reverts your damaging moves or attacks, and especially, stop responding hostilely to warnings, or I'll block you again. You're a good contributor when you want to be but you just have to learn how to fit in here. You've been here a long time, I'm surprised you haven't figured it out yet. This is an official warning. If you remove it, it means you've internalised it and if you violate anything it says, you will be blocked without ignorance as an excuse, and I will put it up for review on AN/I as I always do. You've just about exhausted my patience. ++]: ]/] 21:30, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

	Tobias.
	I really, really, really hate to say this.
	But you are acting like a child. A petulant, miserable child.
	You are a very good contributor, '''''most of the time'''''.
	I have looked at the deleted version of the article on ]. It was so uninformative, it was practically a ]. This falls well within the criteria for deletion. Had I been the one to discover it, I would have left you a message telling you that you had twelve hours to expand it yourself or it would be deleted - but then, I am often told that I'm too nice.
	It was not an article. It was a ''micro''-article. There are many things that can be said about the Kayah Li script, and your article said none of them. I know it was very annoying to have the article deleted in the first ''minute'' of its creation, but if you can't be bothered to include enough information in the very first edit to make it clear why the article should be kept, that's exactly what you're risking.
	We are janitors. We are cleaning up the constant mess that is being created 60 minutes an hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, by thousands of people all around the world. Every article has to stand on its own two feet from the very beginning.
	And then, ''the article on the Kayah Li script got created anyway''.
	By someone else, true, but the information is there, and you even got to edit it yourself. It says everything you wanted it to, and more besides. That's what matters, isn't it? ] 19:34, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

	Tobias, while you are correct that the page did not fall under the criteria for A1 (contrary to claims, A1 specifically says that there '''isn't''' a 'size limit') you should have treated it as an understandable mistake rather than going directly to "admin rights abuse". Everyone messes up and dislikes being told about it... let alone being accused of malfeasance rather than simple error. You might have had better luck with an, 'I just started that article and was going to expand it' message. Yes, it would be better if nothing ever got deleted unless it should be... but people are human. They have different opinions and make mistakes. So that just isn't going to happen and inevitable foulups should be taken in stride. --] 16:18, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

	::what does this has to do with the "persecution" as you call it? I object to your last sentence. First of all WP is not here for only your way of thinking about contributions. I make lot's of small edits, this mainly if I see wrong links or discover inconsistency. Other people may only fix spelling errors. Everybody may do what he wants to, as long as it is increasing the value of WP. You are in lack of the right to tell other people how they should contribute. Secondly, I also claim that your statement is a false one. "good contributions" do not have necessarily more value then "tens of thousands of contributions" ] ] 13:34, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
	That you are not convinced that I am "persecuted" is one thing. Another question would be, are you convinced that I am not? Don't you think your statement is a personal attack on me? I mean, how would you like if someone writes the followig fictional statements: <nowiki>"From all the business about unicode I am not convinced that Michael did not have sex with minors"</nowiki> OR "I have come to understand that Michael's interest in quantity does not add quality to Misplaced Pages." OR "I am not convinced Michael is not an ape." - Hey - why did you attack me???
	:I have not attacked you. I have criticized some of your behaviour. In my opinion, you are not reacting in a measured fashion to criticism. I am not persecuting you. But I don't see you listening to criticism. And I do think you're more interested in whether you have 30,000+ edits than whether your mini-stub on the Gaelic script was accurate or not.

	:I have already expressed my concern to the admins that precipitous deletion of stubs in an actively-growing category like ] frustrates editors a lot. I think that an admin who dislikes a stub in such a category (such as a writing system with an info box pointing to an international standard that has a four-letter code for it) should engage the community or the editor of the stub about improvement rather than deleting it. So I agree with you there. I don't agree that shouting "Abuse! Abuse!" is helpful. Nor do I agree that Misplaced Pages policies are anything more than guidelines. Mostly the guidelines are good and helpful, but getting angry over their "violation" and ''staying'' angry about it isn't very sensible. Take some days off, Tobias. Translate ] into German.

Saying that a mini=stub like "adds quality" to the Misplaced Pages is just wrong. Unfortunately you have damaged your own reputation somewhat. I won't write you off, but I'm afraid you're going to be in my ''caveat editor'' box for some time to come.

I ''do'' think the proliferation of "mini-stubs" is irritating, and we have spent much time discussing it simply because Tobias was pissed off for having one of his mini-stubs deleted. ] 13:13, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
	:::::::::::::Nandesuka, your claim that Tobias "inserts nonsense into articles" is also uncivil... not to mention obviously untrue. As is your statement that pointing out Evertype's clear incivility is "abusing" him. If I were to do so to excess... seeming to stalk him around and look for any pretext to snipe at him... making condescending statements about being 'disappointed'... that could become 'abuse' in the form of harassment.

To state that the ''script to write Fish language'' should NOT be confused with the ''Fish script'' seems valuable to me. Since there was http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Gaelic_script&oldid=29156621 I fixed this. To avoid that other people make the same error which existed in WP for around 10 months, I made a stub and stated, don't confuse Gaelic ''script'' with Ogham script (the script that is used for writing Gaelic ''language''). And yes, I did not know much more about the Gaelic script. ] ] 16:04, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

	:Hi Tobias. The most directly relevant policy is ]. Note that it requires politeness even when impolite things might be true or in response to incivility from another user. Obviously, this is a difficult standard to maintain and all of us are less than fully polite from time to time. However, there has to be an apparent effort towards remaining polite and ]. For example, when Pschemp put the 'unblock' template on your page the text it displayed was clearly untrue... you had not 'requested to be unblocked for reason XYZ'. However, is it not at least possible that pschemp just didn't know or think about the exact wording of the unblock template and put it there to get someone else to review the block? If so then he it wasn't a 'lie' because he didn't intend to make a false statement. That's 'assuming good faith'... giving the benefit of the doubt that maybe it was just a mistake. But even if it wasn't and you knew for certain that something was a deliberate lie it is not 'civil' to say so. Likewise, when Chairboy deleted your stub... I strongly agree that this did not follow process, but 'assumption of good faith' should have led to thinking that he probably just made a mistake or has a misunderstanding of the A1 criteria which can be discussed with him and others to resolve. Calling it "Admin abuse" in the section title is again a 'civility' issue. Asking if it was a mistake or for an explanation would have been better... and when he moved it to your user space - ok, that obviously isn't what you wanted and it shouldn't have been deleted in the first place, but as the ] policy says the best course is just to let it go. It wouldn't have been too hard to add in a few more details and then move it back to the article.
	:It all comes down to giving people the benefit of the doubt and using non-judgemental language. This does not mean that you cannot disagree when something seems wrong or unfair. Lar and I have recently had a very intense disagreement, but managed to remain ''mostly'' civil to each other... likewise Nandesuka and I are downright angry with each other right now, but have been no more than in our discussions and edit summaries. Still less civil than we should be. Having good reasons for being angry (such as your article being deleted) doesn't change the requirement to be civil. It's something we all try to do to keep conflicts and arguing to a minimum.

	== A proposition to Tobias and the admins ==
	This is becoming a dogpile. I'm not a huge fan of some of Tobias's work, but I think this is getting to be ridiculous. I propose this: Tobias, stop complaining. Period. Admins, stop poking. Period. That is to say, no more discussion occurs here. None.
	Tobias: Be nice. Period. That is a ''requirement'' of being here. Even if people are not nice to you, you have to be nice to them. Civility is non-negotiable.
	Admins: Honestly I don't think y'all are doing too much wrong, it's just the sheer volume and unrelentingness of it that's probably not helping.
	Now, if Tobias does something that needs admin action, like deleting one of his stubs, then do it, and let him know how he can improve in the future. Tobias gets no special treatment; his substubs are no more sacrosanct than anyone else's. Likewise, Tobias, you need to learn that an infobox and a single sentence is not sufficient, no matter how much you say that it is. However, that brings me to the next point:
	Admins: No more threats about blocks. If you have a problem with Tobias, take it to RfC, RfM, or RfAr.
	Likewise, Tobias? If you have a problem with an admin, take it to RfC or RfAr. And if you have a problem with a deletion they make, instead of accusing them of "abuse", go straight to DRV, do not pass go, do not collect $200. Saying they are abusing and attacking you fails the civility requirement. USE THE PROCESS.
	The point of this is to not have endless, constant words without any gain on a talk page. If ANYONE involved in this has ANY PROBLEM with ANYONE ELSE, take it to an OFFICIAL VENUE FOR DISPUTE RESOLUTION, and do not offer threats and random blocks.
	That is my proposition. You all may take it or leave it. --] 19:44, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

	I once tried to use the DRV process, but the WP:CSD A1 violation was endorsed there. Furthermore I think it is better to at first contact the deleting admin. For RfC on admin conduct I need a second person first. I invited another person, Chairboy also offered help, because I told him I found the RfC pages confusing. (thx to Chairboy here) But then I was once again blocked.
	One sentence and an infobox can in deed make a valuable stub. E.g. some user made <nowiki>]</nowiki> this is stupid. So I created a little article, to not have a red link which could invite people to make these kind of wrong wikification. Another example: There was confusion and IIRC wrong links related to Gaelic script and Gaelic languages (written in Ogham script), so I started ]. I was accused not to write a longer text about this script I never heard of. Great.

	:As for "The A1 violation was upheld there", so be it - consensus trumps weak rules. (as opposed to strong rules, like civility, verifiability, and NPOV, which are non-negotiable) As for "contacting the admin", yes, please do - but don't immediately come out accusing them of abuse and lies. That really, really poisons the well. I don't really care about the disputed article, I'm just trying to defuse what was appearing to be a rapidly escalating situation.

	::Thanks for trying to cool the thing down. I agree that using the word abuse in the first contact with Chairboy might no have been optimal. As for your strong/ weak rules, where is this written, that a very clear rule like WP:CSD A1 can be overturned by 5 or so admins? I assume there is a much larger consensus that initially installed the rule. Do you made up this concept to support your oppostion to current speedy rules. On your page you state you would follow the rules, now you advocate that there is no need to follow WP:CSD. This seems corrupt to me and lets me doubt that you really like to be an admin that wants to serve the WP community in the lines of the rules that the community installed. But maybe you can point me to the policy that defines negotiable and non-negotiable rules. I am not 100% sure about the lie thing. Pschemp is an admin which is as far as I am concerned a lot in the blocking business. I would like to see a proof that she did not were aware of the template intro: "This blocked user ... has asked to be unblocked.". She inserted the template twice, she announced the insertion, so the insertion was no accident. It was inserted to mislead the reader, i.e. to think the reader that the statement is true while knowing it is not true. That's what constitutes a ].

	::There is a philosophy that says 'personal attacks' can be ]. However, this is disputed because people often have wildly different definitions of what is and is not a personal attack. I'd rather ''not'' go through an RfC as they are often nasty tedious affairs which accomplish little, but if you wish I will help you with the procedures. You may want to look at ] - where alot of these issues have already been discussed. As to personal attacks, well as I said definitions vary widely (and often on a per case basis in my experience)... but I'd say that questioning Chairboy's IQ would definitely qualify. You didn't say he had a low IQ or such, but it certainly seemed implied and just a bad idea to go there at all. Any accusation (e.g. 'abuse' or 'stalking') might also be called a personal attack though that is something more of a stretch as it is usually defined as a negative description of the ''person'' rather than their ''actions''. Though the latter is often 'incivil' whether a 'personal attack' or not.
	::Misplaced Pages is alot of things... but mostly it is alot of people. And people means personality conflicts and disagreements. Usually your best bet is going to be to walk away from that. If something you were working on gets deleted - let me know. It can always be restored and expanded unless there is some strong reason that it doesn't belong in Misplaced Pages at all (which seems unlikely). I don't agree with alot of what goes on either, but mostly I just go somewhere else until the problem goes away. There is always something else to work on. --] 01:52, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
	Some policies are very poorly defined. One which seems pretty clear to me is WP:CSD A1. The only dispute could be is there enough context or not? In several cases not only I saw the context but others too and the stubs got expanded. If now Chairboy comes and says there was not enough context I assume he only did say this to defend his deletion, or that he really saw no context. What is needed to see context? I assumed a certain IQ level. I later added that this assumption was probably not sufficient, one can have a high IQ but if there is lack of knowledge then this might not be enough to see context. Maybe he did not know what the word "script" means? I doubt this. If so, I propose to only let admins delete per WP:CSD A1 and keep this deletion up after a complaint, if they succesfull passed a vocabulary test. Another proposal could be to by default let admins delete by WP:CSD A1 until it is found out that they lack to much knowledge (and/or IQ) to handle this correctly. ] ] 16:58, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

	::Tobias, the dispute about CSD A1 isn't a reading comprehension issue here but a disagreement about what 'context' means. I, and apparently you, think it means that the subject of the article is defined. Chairboy (and Pschemp) presumably think it means something else - though neither has said what despite invitations to do so. From past comments that the stubs were 'too short' I gather that they consider 'context' to have something to do with length, but that is not my understanding of the policy. In any case, Chairboy didn't delete your stub because he couldn't understand it, but rather because he views A1 as allowing deletion of things you '''do''' understand if they lack... enough length or something. I'm not sure exactly what criteria he is using. --] 17:56, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

	:The ] edits are in the history again. As to grounds for deletion, a case could be made under CSD 'A3' as the text there says articles consisting ''only'' of links (including links under 'see also') can be treated as 'empty'. Again, I think clarifying that there are different places with the same name is a valid goal - so just work around whatever quibbles come up to get to a 'methodology' of doing so which can't be obstructed. On the MfD... alot of pages like that have been deleted in the past. I recall a big stink when Kelly Martin was found to have one. I'd suggest just copying the wikitext to a local file. You can always cut and paste it into an edit window and use preview to add things / make updates and then have it available if you need it for a future discussion or DR process. You could probably also include some of the general text describing the problem with links to a few examples as a 'position statement' on your user page.

And, if you continue in like fashion, I think you may well get someone so annoyed at you that you are suspended. I would not want to see that happen, as I don't know if you have a case or not.

Again, '''if you can be bothered to listen''', there are appropriate places to raise your concerns, and, so far as I can determine, you have failed to raise them there. Instead, you are stepping outside accepted behavior to make your case. You could make a request for comment, you could post a message on the community portal or appeal to the Arbitration Committee, or any number of other actions which fall within the norms of behavior. Instead, you are taking actions which any outside observer I believe would see as falling outside the norms of behavior. As such, I repeat, you are damaging your own case before it is even heard.

I '''don't''' know anything about Indonesia, and at 6:30am local time I am certainly not thinking clearly... but even so I know that you are never going to solve anything if you don't concentrate on what the real content issues are rather than ways to annoy each other. Merbabu, Tobias mentioned something about 'primary topics' without really explaining it (which you should have Tobias). Without looking at the disputed moves I can guess that he was very likely referring to ] of the disambiguation guidelines. Basically, standard Wiki-practice is that if there are multiple things with the same name and none of them are overwhelmingly more likely to be searched for by users of the English language Misplaced Pages than the others you should have a <Name of thing> disambiguation article which lists all the things with that name and links to each of those articles as <Name of thing (type of thing)>... we generally only have <Name of thing> go to one of several items with the same name if it is well known/overwhelmingly more common than the others... at which point there would be a link at the top of that article to a <Name of thing (disambiguation)> page for the list of the other items. Based on a previous instance I'm going to further guess that we are talking about 'regions' where there are also towns of the same name... most English speakers have likely never heard or had reason to search for ''any'' of them and thus there likely isn't a clear 'primary topic', but in many cases the town articles haven't been created yet. Correct? If so, I think it would be less confusing/disruptive for others if Tobias created the town articles first and ''then'' moved things to standard disambiguation, but it ''does'' make sense to clarify immediately that the 'region' article is not the only thing with that name in case someone was really looking for info on one of the other places. There are other ways to accomplish that clarification than a disambig page (such as listing the other locations towards the top of the existing article), but if it is going to end up that way eventually once the town articles are filled out is it really such a bad idea to disambiguate now? Or is there some other issue or reason not to disambiguate at all? --] 10:57, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
	::Addendum - Looking further I see that there actually ''has'' been some discussion of these issues now on ]. It's an improvement over the above, but it would still help if everyone could lay off wholely unhelpful comments about IQ and who said what and who isn't qualified... et cetera. --] 11:24, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
	::Hear hear. I can't see anything particularly harmful in the recent pagemoves. However, it is often a good idea to have at least some discussion of a proposed move. And it is never sensible to have a massive row about article naming on Misplaced Pages. ] 14:16, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
	:::Thanks for your input CBD & others. There was a discussion on the Yogya page until one editor didn't agree with the consensus forming, stated his opposition, and then made his change immediately. In fact, Tobias appeared to share the same view of the issue but his solution was different. Just for some context: Yogyakarta is regarded as the "cultural and emotional heart" of Java (pop 120m plus!), is one of the most historically important cities/regions to Indonesia (both modern and ancient) and probably the most significant tourist centre in Indonesia apart from Bali - thus, its significance to readers can be expected to be considerable.

	:::Given it's significance i think we can all agree that Yogya needs more work. I agree we all stop any name calling but i also request that given that it is clearly a sensitive area that the changes are slowed down and are discussed FIRST with time for responses (Tobias, what do you think?). In return, the rest of us should be careful to only strongly object or even revert changes if they are not just wrong but significantly so that they just can't be lived with.

	::::Discussion of controversial issues in advance is always a good idea, but it is not always possible to tell that something is going to be controversial until you do it. In any case... we are where we are and should be discussing the current situation. But what is that? On Yogyakarta one of the objections seems to have been that the 'city' article was very short... but after info on the city was transferred out of the 'region' article and both filled out a bit more they now look like two viable articles with different info. So is the idea of 'merging' these (and the 'sultanate' article) or ignoring the city in disambiguation evaluations still viable? Should the city article be cut down? Should links/searches on 'Yogyakarta' go to one of those three pages or a disambig page, and why? Try thinking about where you want the Misplaced Pages info on these places to 'wind up' rather than where it is or was. Long term if 'Joe Wiki-user' types 'Yogyakarta' into the search box what should happen? Is he probably looking for info on the sultanate and should be directed there or is it unclear which he is looking for? Do each of the three areas have enough notable information, distinct from the others, about them to justify an independant article or are one or more really minor topics which would never have more than a paragraph which can be merged into another article?

	== Concerns of admin abuse ==
	Hello, Tobias. I notice that from your deleted WikiProject you have concerns about administrators abusing their power. Remember that most admins mean no harm, but since they're only human they can get aggravated. If you're concerned that an admin has overstepped their boundary, you should ''calmly'' take it up with them and explain why you believe they've done something wrong. Don't forget to remain civil. Additionally, you can report the misuse to ] where it can be discussed. If admin abuse by a certain user gets out of hand, you can file a ]. I am sorry that you've had to have negative experiences with admins; if you react calmly, then your opinion will be respected more than if you run in shouting at everyone and threatening left and right (remember -- admins are only human). ]] 20:45, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
	:it's not the first time that I see admins abusing their rights. I do not think I was threatening. ''Remember that most admins mean no harm'' - I don't care what they mean. I care what they do. And some do abuse their rights repeatedly. There was at least on big discussions at WP:AN/I - which revealed that quite a lot of admins have esprit de corps, defending "fellow admins", not defending WP policies. ] ] 04:43, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

What has my number of edits to do with my observations of repeated admin right abuses? Do you mean after having the experience that a lot of people here make false statements and a lot of admins abuse their admin rights I should know better that this is not going to change? I don't know what the future brings, but certainly for now I do not want to be in the camp of people that closed their eyes in front of abuses. I address abuses. I do not make corrupt deals with admins ''offering'' me something in exchange for me stating stuff they would like to hear.

	:::::No, no they won't. Sorry Tobias, but I don't think there is any chance of things coming out that way. What you never seem to get is that having a valid point (and you ''do'' have valid points) is not good enough. This isn't like a court of law where you can cite 'Nandesuka protected a page she had been involved in editing' and 'Nandesuka removed and altered talk page comments' and have an automatic outcome once evidence of such is provided. That's just not how it works. It is far more like a collection of little 'high school cliques'... people far too often react based on who they like, or just take a superficial look at who is being loud / incivil and assume they are the problem. You shoot yourself in the foot over and over again by yelling about abuse and editing conflicts... not because you aren't right or at least have a reasonable argument, you always do, but because that's ''not'' how things get determined when the decisions are made by 'ordinary people' rather than a 'formal system of laws'. Having valid arguments is a good thing, but if you can't avoid incivility (and saying things are 'abusive', 'lies', or 'could be lies' is incivil regardless of whether it is true or not) alot of people won't care. Paradoxically, every time you make an accusation you are decreasing the likelihood of anything being done about the thing you complain of... because the decision isn't going to be made by a judge bound to procedure, but by the people you accuse, their friends, and largely dis-interested bystanders. Sorry, but that's the reality of how Misplaced Pages is structured and fighting against it doesn't work. --] 14:58, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

	::.... and I will take part in that witchhunt (?) ....
	== What can I do? ==
	Tobias, I would like you to do me a favor and take a short break, read what I've got to say. I realize you and I have had words in the past but that's all over. I don't even remember what it was about. Right now, I'm only concerned for your well-being.
	You're a valuable editor. You've made a great many more edits than I have. Everyone says you are an outstanding contributor. But right now, our community is debating whether to ban you ''permanently'' from Misplaced Pages. We're not planning to hold an RfC or discuss it with you; we're simply going to block your user account and ban you from creating another. If you come back, we'll block that account, too. This has not happened yet but it does look to be going that way to me. If you escape this ban, expect an RfArb. I can pretty much guarantee that ArbCom will ban you. '''This is just my personal opinion.''' But I think you're smart enough to see which way the wind is blowing.
	I'm not an admin, Tobias. I'm interested in the administration of this project but I don't even ''want'' to be an admin. I like editing; particularly, I like uploading graphics and writing policy. I don't want to tell people ''you've been bad'' or ''i just deleted your article, ha ha''. Somebody has to do these things but it's not for me. I don't even have any close friends who are admins. Nobody listens to anything I say; I just speak my mind and hope I make sense. I ''am'' running for a seat on ArbCom; it's not because I enjoy the thought of it. I'm just afraid that ArbCom may become abusive of good editors such as yourself and I want to sit in that room, too, and do what I can to be sure that only just remedies come out.
	Now I will tell you what will happen if I ''do'' get elected to ArbCom and you show up on the short end of an RfArb. I will ''recuse'' myself from the case, because you and I have had some sort of conflict in the past. I can't say what it was but it makes me an involved party. That means I will not be able to vote on any of the proposed findings or decisions. If you are banned by ArbCom, it will not be me who does it. Instead, I will sign up to the case as an involved party and I will argue ''against'' banning you. Your conduct certainly merits a ban ''but'' you are also an extremely productive contributor. The question I will ask -- the question I ask now -- is: ''Why has nobody been able to salvage this editor?''
	I have been blocked, Tobias. I have been blocked ''twice''; and neither time do I think I did wrong. For that matter, ''other'' editors, even admins, have suggested I be unblocked. Still, there it is. I'm blocked. On top of this, I've been insulted, had good things I've done deleted. I'm 46 and people have spoken to me as if I were a small child. I've gotten angry about it once or twice. When this happens, I take a break. I do something else and let Misplaced Pages go for the day.
	I have had to learn that Misplaced Pages is full of people -- not just some people, not just my friends, not even just my enemies -- but ''everybody''. Not every single one of 6 billion human beings is editing but everybody is represented here. That includes people I simply do not respect, people with fanatic religious agendas, people who are really -- in a literal sense -- very stupid, people who are very intelligent but can't see their own shoes to tie the laces. What's worse, some of these people are in charge. I've had to learn to work with '''all of these people''' one way or another. Sometimes, that just means being ready to lose an argument.
	Perhaps you just don't care anymore. Maybe you are thinking, ''Well, they can just go ahead and throw me out. I don't care. I'll blow up the whole thing on my way out. I'll come back tomorrow and blow it up again. They'll never get rid of me. They'll be sorry -- I'll '''make''' them be sorry.'' We've all had this kind of thought once or twice. But the truth is that Misplaced Pages is bigger than you -- bigger than anybody. Misplaced Pages is bigger than Jimbo; if ''he'' tried to blow it up, he couldn't. Misplaced Pages may not be forever but if it comes apart, it will not be because of any one person. Not only will Misplaced Pages roll on without you; nobody will even remember you were ever here.
	There are a lot of people in our community who are ready and willing to help you in almost any way. I know many have tried. ''I'' will try. I'm not your friend but I will do whatever I can do to help you work it out. I think it's important. We can't go around throwing away our hardest-working editors. But I need you to work ''with'' me, too. I can't do anything at all for you by myself. Give me a chance, Tobias. ]]] 18:03, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
	Thanks for your contribution. You really spent some time to write it down.<strike> IIRC you once violated WP:AfD that how we met. I did not know you but later in the course of me getting blocked I took a look at your edit hist and found that our edit pathes crossed in earlier days. By this I mean that I found an article we both did edit.</strike>
	If you succeed to get into ArbCom I hope you apply written rules. I hope you defend these rules. I hope you will not treat different admins, new contributers, long standing contributors - except if this is laid down in the rules. I hope you will support users and projects that have a firm stand against corruption and false claims. I hope you support activities to transparently document admin specific policy violations. I hope all your decisions will be made with the main goal in mind: creating a high quality GFDL encyclopedia.
	: I allways tried to follow the rules. If you say that you are going to perm ban me without formal procedure than I think you are the one violating the rules.

	Misplaced Pages began as a small, informal group of people who ''hate'' rules and formal procedures. Most of the people who came in shortly after ''also'' hate these things. Some of the people who came later like rules and formality but they have had to go along with our community on this. By now, ] has become firmly established, even to the point of having a "rule" page written about it. You need to see why this is so. We've learned, from experience, that rules are very easy to evade. The smarter you are, the easier it is to find a loophole or use the rule against itself, like a karate fighter. The bigger the rule, the more rules there are, the easier it is to do this. Look outside in the Real World; there are entire ''professions'' that specialize in poking holes in laws and regulations. Some people are evil predators, stealing money from blind men's cups; but they have found a legal way to do it so they cannot be stopped.
	IAR is about the most basic policy we have. It says you can do ''anything'' -- anything at all -- regardless of any other policy. There is only one other policy that is more important. That is ]. And since if you IAR you are very likely going to be a dick, you need to think about both together.
	Read that page about being a dick. I've said, elsewhere, that the definition of a dick is somebody who finds out where the line is, separating dickness from non-dickness, then goes ahead and does something dickheaded on the "good" side of the line. Perhaps the most interesting thing on that page is '''Telling someone "Don't be a dick" is something of a dick-move in itself...'''
	In the context of your impending ban, IAR means that we don't ''need'' to bring your case to ArbCom -- or anywhere else. Admins don't even need to discuss you on AN. One, single admin can permaban you, right here, right now. If nobody thinks he's being a dick, that permaban will stand. No rules, no procedures, nothing to argue and nobody to argue with. It will just be the end.
	Essentially, Tobias, editors have been spending a lot of time telling you that you are a dick -- and you're not happy about it. But there's something else on that page -- ''please'' read it over, at least a couple of times: '''If a significant number of reasonable people suggest, whether bluntly or politely, that you are being a dick, the odds are good that you are not entirely in the right.''' That doesn't mean that ''they'' are right; they may be dicks, too, and quite likely are. It ''does'' mean that people have stopped listening to you.
	We are not here to make you a better person; we're here to write an encyclopedia. A lot of people have taken time out to do what we can to help you with your problems. You need to work with us. You cannot insist on rules or formal procedures; at this particular moment, you cannot even insist on basic courtesy -- or anything else at all. The time is coming when somebody is simply going to blank your user and talk pages, slap a big, ugly tag on both, protect them both, and block your account indefinitely. You need to avoid that and the only way you can do that is by getting along with other people.
	If you survive this latest expression of community outrage and continue to edit without incident for a few months, you may very well be able to raise all sorts of concerns and work to change the things that upset you. But not now. ]]] 02:04, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
	== Interesting ==
	: ''I used to endorse Requests for Adminship for editors who had never been blocked; I would never do so again.'' John Reid at ]
	I did indeed write that, Tobias; not on the redirect page but on ]. I'm quite serious; look a bit further down the page. Blocks should not be handed out lightly; they're no big deal but it's easy to take offense when given one. So, I've decided nobody should be given the big red button who has not felt the other end of it.
	I see that you think some admins are frequently abusive of the tools they've been given. ''You're right.'' Nobody disputes this, really. We have a seriously broken adminship process. Some think we need a more effective, faster, community-based process of de-adminship. Some think we need admin term limits; that's what they have on Swedish Misplaced Pages. Some think we need to improve the RfA process. Some just think ArbCom should take on more cases, hear them faster, and de-admin more often. One way or another, a lot of community members are working on this and almost everyone is concerned.
	The best way for you to share your concerns is by working with us. This is not easy to do. If I'm the only person in the room, all I hear is my own voice. If there are two of us, I have to listen half the time. If three, I have to listen two-thirds of the time, and so on. With 100 people in the room, I have to spend 99% of the time listening and only 1% talking. This can be very frustrating. This is a very big community and I can almost guarantee that no matter what I say, I will not even be heard. Not only that, but if I want anybody ''ever'' to listen to me, I need to spend far more time listening to ''everybody else''. Of course, most people, myself included, are full of bull most of the time, so it's very tiring.
	I need you to keep in mind that the harder you try to get people to listen to you, the worse it goes for you. Right now, you could completely turn the situation around for you, Tobias. All you would have to do is leave a short comment on your talk page, right here, and say something like, ''Hmm. I need to think about that.'' Then, take a break for about a week. Don't edit at all; do something else. Play ball, make some money. See a movie, eat a pizza. Don't even ''read'' Misplaced Pages for the week. When you come back, start out by putting another comment on talk, right here. Ignore whatever's been written in the meantime -- really. Just write, ''Well, I've thought about that and I'm sorry.'' Try to say something that will make people happy. That may not seem entirely sincere to you but this is the way we grease the social axle. ''Then'', you might want to go back and read over talk page comments -- then maybe take another week off and really think about them.
	If you take some time off and relax, you'll come back stronger than ever. You can work very hard to bring down abusive admins and make our community better. But first, you need to gain people's respect. This is not easy, but some of us are rooting for you. ]]] 01:08, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

	Los invito a participar de , un proyecto wiki que usa el mismo software que wikipedia, y por ende funciona exactamente igual. Es una wikipedia de la argentina con un punto de vista .
	Aquí se podrán crear artículos sobre la cultura, geografía, economía, historia, gente y demás de la Argentina, con la condición de que el punto de vista NO sea neutral, sino argentino . Este no es un lugar para la militancia política o social, sólo para escribir y "hacer algo". Para eso estamos, para los que nos cansamos de que insulten al País y ver como el mundo de nosotros ríe. Siempre se dijo, "hay que hacer algo" pero nadie lo hizo. Es dificil hacer algo, nadie por sí solo va a levantarse un día y transformar a la Patria en una potencia mundial, o expulsar a los ingleses de las Malvinas, pero no por eso se va a "hacer nada".
	Espero que te unas al proyecto, cordialmente

	:: Well my general feeling is, absent a policy, that things ought not to be complicated beyond necessity.

	== Comments from Iamunknown regarding events at AN/I, MFD CSN ==
	Tobias Conradi, I understand you've have several run ins with administrators, not all which you regarded as fair. I understand that it can be frustrating to deal with some administrators; they have the ability to block you and leave a permanent mark on your record. One night I went to sleep and could not fall asleep for a couple of hours because (I don't know why) I was so afraid that I was going to be blocked. (I thought I had violated the 3RR rule, but later realised I had not.) It can be intimidating. I want to assure you, however, that no administrator is out to get you; none willfully wants to block you and force you off of the site; and, indeed, I'm sure, some would like to see you get back to editing.
	Tobias Conradi, some comments at ] and ] (CSN) indicate that other editors are tired of the collections of diffs you have regarding other editors. Not that these diffs are necessarily inherently against policy; nothing needs necessarily be strictly against policy to be ill-advisable. Other things are unacceptable on an online collaborative community such as Misplaced Pages particularly if they do not help promote a collaborative atmosphere. Would you consider removing the sections of your talk page that are listings of ]s and accusations against other editors? I think that the CSN-participants might view that well. And maybe just consider working on a few articles instead of going to AN or ANI.
	Hope this helps. Sorry if it is unwanted advice. Best, ] 23:13, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
	:no deals with me. You cannot trade with me. The truth is the truth. What raises bad atmosphere are the admins that abuse their rights, act out of policy, shout at others etc. They need help, not me. I am not afraid of getting banned.

	== Is it still worth the effort? ==
	Tobias, I see that you still seem to be engaged in an uphill struggle. But I'm afraid you might be wasting your time, because the administrators are basically trying to enforce the Misplaced Pages consensus, and the consensus appears to be one that you are not happy with. How much fun can it be for you? Wouldn't your time be better spent working in an environment that you find more congenial? ] 23:44, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
	== Community Sanctions ==
	I have Unblock you per ]. There is no consensus to permablock you but there is a strong consensus to put you on a strict civility parole. Please follow it to the letter or you soon would find yourself permabanned anyway. If you feel that somebody wronged you a personal attack would not help you indeed it would make all your enemies (if have ones) happy to see you been blocked. I would recommend you to ask for an opinion an admin you trust to treat you fair (e.g. Ezhiki or even me).

	Hi, as this conflict doesn't seem to be heading for a resolution, I've decided to take it to arbitration. See application. Please make your response there. It's best to make the response brief; if the case is accepted you'll get all the opportunity you need to make your case, on the wiki or by email to the committee. --] 15:12, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

	(After edit conflict) Tobias, a request for arbitration has been filed regarding your conduct at ]. You are invited to comment there if you wish. (You have been unblocked, so there is no need to use e-mail to contribute to the case.) Several people who have commented on the case have asked the arbitration committee to consider not just your (alleged) disruptive behavior, but also your grievances. Currently three arbitrators have voted to hear the case; the case will open after receiving four net votes to accept. When the case opens there will be a page to post evidence and a workshop page to analyze the evidence and to propose and discuss possible outcomes. At that point, if you wish, your user subpage of admin grievances can be undeleted for the duration of the case so you can have access to your old notes. It is probably in your best interest to participate, or at least monitor the progress of the case. If you have any questions you can ask me or another ]. ] 13:07, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
	:And these evidence pages and workshop pages can be deleted by MfD? Like my talk archives and my user page? It is really bad that a group of admins or editors can run around and delete evidence collections. That's a serious problem. People spend lot of time to create things and whoops - gone. I can really spent my time with other things if it is not clear how save the stuff overthere is. Workshop page sounds nice, I would really like to work with the ArbCom members on such a thing. Please no lengthy for and back talking. But working jointly on some text, tables or so. As for the moves - I am sorry for problems I caused ] with the move of FA ]. Moving an FA page like I did, was not a good idea. Hopefully I will not be so bad to do that again. From my current point of view, it was a mistake. ] ] 15:51, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
	::A couple of arbitration cases have been blanked to protect the privacy of the named people from google searches, but generally arbitration case pages stay as part of the case record. (I won't say one could never be MfD'd, but it would be highly unlikely, and cases much more contentious than yours are still on file.) You should have a look at some cases to afimliarize yourself with the format. A good example right now is ]. It has pretty decent evidence and workshop pages.
	::The arbitrators expect to read everything submitted as part of a case, so they ask that the evidence be kept to 1000 words and 100 diffs per person. You can go over if you need to, but stick to your best evidence. For example, if you were trying to prove that a user disruptively inserted original research into an article, 4 or 5 diffs would prove the point just as well as 10 or 20. In your case, if you want the committee to deal with alleged admin misconduct toward you, it would be wise to stick to your strongest cases. Certainly the blocks should be discussed, but cherry pick the other items to present the best examples. Other editors will probably present evidence of your alleged disruption, as there was a movement to have you banned or at least placed on parole. You may post rebuttals if you like, perhaps showing context or mitigating circumstances.
	::Along with the evidence there is a workshop page. Arbitrators, parties, or uninvolved editors may propose principles, findings of fact, and remedies. Look at some prior cases to see how this goes. Often, editors with little arbitration experience will post outrageous sounding remedies. It's best to ignore anything really outrageous and respond calmly to anything else. (I am amazed at some of the behavior I see on arbitration pages when the editors have to know that everything they do there will be seen by the arbitrators.) The arbitrators often don't begin commenting until after the case has been open for a while and then you can see which way the wind is blowing. Sometimes you can get quite a fruitful discussion going, although it always depends on the parties. There can be quite a lot of back and forth between the parties, especially when both sides think they're obviously right and the other side is obviously wrong. For a good example, see ]; for a bad example, see ] (and consider that all the major participants in that case got banned for a year). You can choose your own level of participation, whether or not to offer proposals of your own, whether or not to respond to others' proposals or to wait for the arbitrators to comment, etc. Eventually the arbitrators will take the proposals they agree with (or write new ones if nothing offered by the parties is suitable) and put them on the proposed decision page for voting.
	::Longer post then I planned, but hopefully useful. Let me know if you need anything else. ] 01:56, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
	:::I really liked your post. Every sentence was interesting. I will be mostly off for the weekend. Maybe it is good if you as clerk know this. I would like if this case is handled with time. I would like to know possible timeframes of arbitration cases. Maybe you can drop a note about that. ] ] 13:40, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
	::::Cases are usually addressed by the arbitrators in chronological order, and you're 4th in line (see ], which is also transcluded onto ]).

I've noticed you're adding articles and updating the table. Probably the biggest outage I've noticed is the script I ran to determine the ISO 639-3 code for each existing article looked only at the template's iso3 parameter, not lc1, lc2, ... Articles that don't have an iso3 parameter show up in the NOCODE list. I'm thinking about running the NOCODE articles through another script that finds the codes in these fields in the template. If/when I do this, I suspect many of the red links will turn blue.

	:At that page I wanted to log different things that happened, not only the abuses/misuses. I.e. I also would like to log where I used the word asshole and called someone a vandal who fell not under ]. BTW, IIRC you did speedily delete without any talk or prior notification a stub that with some googling could be expanded. And IIRC I was under way to expand it. But when I came back, it was gone. For non-admins this is very unfunny, because we cannot easily revert. That was the original issue between you and me! I really do not understand why now several admins go around and delete mentions or listings of such events. And that is my current issue: not only that was I think were out of policy deletions, but that collecting these things is censored. And compared to the out of policy treatment user Tobias Conradi received, your deletion is a little bit minor. If you look in my block you will see that from the very first block they were out of policy. Also my talk page protections were out of policy. Sock puppet accusations, I never used socks! The claim by an admin to have a checkuser at hand confirming the sock allegation, but later no one could find this checkuser. Then this all goes up to people from the ComCom calling me vandal if I ask them about transparency and corruption policies. And then whistling and hebrew talking at the WP:OFFICE phone. This all needs to be cleant. IMO WP should be very transparent about it's processes. WP officials and WP admins should handle these things carefully. ] ] 12:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

	Tobias, you've now been blocked for 48 hours for continued incivility both in reposting the offending comment that led to the original block, plus your edit summary here. Please don't escalate this any further. ''']'''<sup>]</sup> 17:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
	kind of corrupt you are? but you ignorant USians will see the day come, and will recognize that the world and wisdom is not yours ... you cannot supress truth. you are corrupt. you bow laws. you lie. arrogant corruption is bad. ] ] 17:56, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
	:btw. it's not only USians! But I have the impression that the anglo-natives are more among the corrupt admins. Maybe foreigners if they speak english are more open to truth and transparency. But this is only a guess. Would really like stats on this. ] ] 17:58, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

	:::You know what the irony is, Tobias? I removed the speedy and kept the article, and you still call me corrupt. Please take the week off that ] has given you, and relax, have a pint or two if that's to your liking, and realize that actually, we're all on the same side, and if you would exercise a little patience and kindness, your wikilife would be much more pleasant.

	::Given your continued incivility in response to the block, I've extended it to 1 week. I'd quit while ahead if I were you.--] 18:16, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
	:::Ok, that highly incivil, abusive and profanity-laced email you sent me has earned you an extension to 1 month, plus an email block. Tobias, I'm sure you have things of real value to contribute to this encyclopedia...why do this? ''']'''<sup>]</sup> 18:09, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

	No idea if you will see this, as you are busy IP hopping instead of visiting your old account, but if you do, this is an FYI to let you know that a sanction ] on the subject of indefinitely blocking you from the project has been started. - ] 17:38, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Redirect to:

• User:Tobias Conradi

This talk page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect: From outside userspace: This is a redirect from a page outside the user namespace to a user page (not to a user talk page). If this redirect targets a user talk page, then use {{R to talk page}} instead. This redirect page must be outside the user namespace. If this redirect is in the user namespace, then instead of the expected category, it will populate Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace. When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
