I am here for some very limited purposes, because some people have asked me to help in some specific cases. I am prepared to do this. I am not intending to be here much, at present. I have not yet decided whether to start using this account actively again. No, I don't want to talk about any of the foregoing, thanks, the people concerned know who they are and how to get hold of me. This is about some ongoing unresolved issues being discussed on one or more mailing lists, when that debate comes to fruition I will take a view. Guy (Help!) 12:45, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

spam

In case you didn't notice - IP address reverting your deletion of his spam links. Baseball Bugs 13:56, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Another admin blocked him. I'm reverting his reversions of your changes now. Baseball Bugs 14:50, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

hello Guy....

if I were clever enough, I'd leave you the same flower FloNight once left me, which I found both pretty, and charming - as a freely offered gift for you to enjoy, and to try and build some faith between us. I think we all need to work on seeing the good in others - it's vital to the project's health. I've just got back from my ban, and am trying to get Socrates up to FA standard - I could use some help if you've got any time, energy or expertise........ Privatemusings (talk) 11:47, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

  • I think that working on Biographies of Long-dead Philosophers (a wholly uncontentious form of BLP) is a good thing for you to do, but I am not in a position to work on that article. The Philosophy WikiProject has many good editors, though. Guy (Help!) 11:56, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
Totally agree that WP:BLDP is a good fit for me, for now! - thanks for the pointer to the wikiproject, I've never engaged with one before, so will head over there, take a look, and try and get some help.... best, Privatemusings (talk) 22:55, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Not Runreston

I just thought you should know that I am not the same person as User:Runreston. I understand that User:Alansohn has serious difficulties with a number of people, but I am making every attempt to conform to Misplaced Pages policies and do not want to be dragged into these other controversies. I find it interesting that User:Alansohn uses "confirmed" and "likely" interchangeably, and that he makes comments about my account and User:Runerston's account interchangeably. I suggest that you review as well as Talk:Dane Rauschenberg to understand the context of his actions and accusations. Thanks Racepacket (talk) 21:14, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

ACS article lives on

You deleted the TlatoSMD version of this article, which was then undeleted... And you nominated it for deletion here where it was ultimately deleted by Riana. It has been recreated at User:VigilancePrime/Userfied/Adult-child sex. On his talk page there is a note about when/why he happened to place a full copy of the article on the userpage of Pol64 (a banned anti-pedophile activist). That caused me to search a whatlinks for some of the articles section links, which led me to the userfied version. Anyway, you tell me - should it be deleted, again? Avruch 04:00, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Overjoyed / TimmyTruck

Looks like User:Overjoyed, whom you blocked, has found either a sockpuppet or a meatpuppet. Baseball Bugs 06:04, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I see he claims to be 99 going on 100. I'm guessing he's in the same "old folks home" as the permanently blocked User:Overjoyed and the currently blocked User:LaSylphide. Baseball Bugs 07:09, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm not seeing it. Try WP:RFCU. Guy (Help!) 08:19, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Is there any way to determine whether Overjoyed's now-deleted Image:Gidgetz02.JPG is the same exact picture as Image:Gid Title.JPG which TimmyTruck uploaded for Gidget (TV series)? It was the same frame, for sure, but I hadn't captured the old one, so I don't know if they're physically identical. Also, I notified the user that I had notified you, and he deleted it without comment, as did Overjoyed in similar circumstances. Another user, Pinkadelica, independently came to the same suspicions I did. They also both show the tendency to upload frames from the Superman DVD's, and to focus on Phil Tead as a "recurring" player in the final season, more than anyone else has. It's worth pointing out that TimmyTruck has been around longer than Overjoyed was. The former started in October, the latter turned up in January. This might be a bit much info. Is ANI the place to take this, or is RFCU better? Baseball Bugs 11:55, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
It's the same as near as dammit but that means nothing, most of these images get picked up off the interwebs somewhere. You can ask at WP:ANI if you like, but as I say I am not seeing this as one single user. Guy (Help!) 12:11, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) It's also worth pointing out that the user's claim that the uploaded images are "reduced size, low resolution" is false, at least for Gidget. They were taken directly from DVD's, which are usually 720 x 480 as the newly-uploaded image is. The items from Superman are at 500 x 333, shrunk by about 30 percent from the DVD captures. Both the ones recently uploaded by TimmyTruck, such as Image:PanicSky.jpg; and some of the ones uploaded by Overjoyed, such as Image:ADV_Stars_02, are at the same 500 x 333 size; and they also use the exact same wording on the fair use rationale. Much of this is arguably coincidental. Maybe I should put it this way: Do I have enough suspicious stuff for an RFCU to catch someone's interest? Baseball Bugs 12:16, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
I have no idea, but it can't hurt to ask. Guy (Help!) 12:28, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm also talking to User:Wknight94 about this. I'll just see if there's enough to at least raise suspicions, and if the admin corps decides to take no action, so be it. They are clearly not on the exact same IP, as blocking of Overjoyed also blocked LaSylphide but not TimmyTruck. The most interesting "coincidence" about these three is their common claim of being very old and (as per the first two) living an an old folks' home. That latter claims to be a holocaust survivor. That's pretty offensive if it's made-up. Baseball Bugs 12:32, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
