User:Persian Poet Gal/Talk other stuff

fake barn stars

Why did you protect instead of ban Harout72? That person gives himself fake barn stars from ip-addresses, and you let him get away with it? I don't care if that was some sort of iranian-armenian alliance, but the actions are clearly in violation of wiki. For all practical purposes, I could slap on any page 10 barn stars, but that would not make them real. Why let him get away with it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.144.179.153 (talk) 14:37, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Two things

May have been an oversight, but this IP never got the block notice. Also, your page says you haven't been active since February! Enigma 20:23, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

• Yep I accidentally forgot to add it but its pretty much giving the vandal further recognition, which is best to deny at this point. Thanks for letting me know though. Seems the statusbots are lagging at updating my last edit timestamps...grr.¤~Persian Poet Gal 20:25, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Vandals

Hi, thanks for the advice. What should I do if I see vandalism besides reverting? Should I report it? Ask for the user to be warned? Thanks. Bardcom (talk) 20:32, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

No problem on the block

I was in a grumpy mood about some other stuff (see the ANI section right below) and intentionally relaxed my response a bit to that one. If someone else viewing it thought that it warranted a block as it stood, that's fine by me. Thanks for the note on my talk page, communications always good. Have a good day!

User:HamidKarzaiIsATaliban

The admin Alison said that these are Beh-nam, not Tajik. Please read the checkuser page more carefully. Checkuser for HamidKarzaiIsATaliban. Merci. Sadozai1 (talk) 00:39, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• See my response here.¤~Persian Poet Gal 00:52, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. However it would be better if you contacted the admin User:Alison since she did the checkuser. Sadozai1 (talk) 00:53, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

What a strange case indeed. But yes, Misplaced Pages:Requests for checkuser/Case/Beh-nam had picked this sock up as a sock of Beh-nam, and it certainly showed the usual characteristics of Beh-nam. As they often share the same POV, it can be difficult to distinguish, betimes - Alison 01:06, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• Thank you for clearing that up.¤~Persian Poet Gal 01:09, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• Oh, and BTW, User:Sadozai1 is  Confirmed as being Beh-nam, hence the interest, I guess - Alison 01:14, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

User:Puncharoo.

No trouble at all, I had actually meant to increase the block to indef for sockpuppetry, but forgot. :/ Thanks for taking care of that. · AndonicO 01:13, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Sock Puppet

Hello, I need your opinion on something. An editor who I have recently started helping brought an XFD discussion to me, and believes that the editor is commtting sock puppetry. The evidence is really on my talk page here, the XFD is here, and the suspected sock contributions are here and here, and this is the user who is suspected of sock puppetry . What do you think? Could you put a talkback template on my page? Thanks.

• Alright I took a look at the matter and I discovered multiple SPAs. I have blocked all and gave a 1 week block to the sockpuppeteer so they would understand that it is inappropriate to use alternative accounts to handle matters like this.¤~Persian Poet Gal 01:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• Okay, thanks for doing that :) It's something I thought I should ask an admin about. Thanks again. Steve Crossin (talk) 01:34, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• • You missed one of the socks. 76.179.143.85 (talk · contribs) Steve Crossin (talk) 01:39, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Taken care of.¤~Persian Poet Gal 01:40, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for that. Will the XFD be closed now? Steve Crossin (talk) 01:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

No, even with all that sockpuppetry, it must finish the duration of the AFD process.¤~Persian Poet Gal 01:49, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

A change I made that's been rejected

Hello there,

I tried to make an edit to the page about The Tart newspaper. The name of the sports editor was incorrect but my change was rejected as it was not-relevent and I'm a little insulted.

I wanted to change the name because I am the sports editor, not the guy you've got written on the page and I think that it is very relevent that someone else is taking the credit for my work. So, I ask that this edit be allowed please.

Thank you, Daniel Sung

Replied here. · AndonicO 14:27, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Citation for a change

Hello,

I'd like to make that change for The Tart newspaper entry to make the sport editor Daniel Sung. Here is the evidence:

• Sorry for the misunderstanding. Unfortunately, we have too many vandals who love to add their names to articles as graffati you could say. Thank you for finding a relavent source that proves you are not doing so. Again my apologies.¤~Persian Poet Gal 16:07, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Could you put a block on IP user:99.141.237.119

This user keeps vandalizing both my user page and talk page. After you semi-protected my talk page for 24 hours, he/she vandalized my user page by this edits . --Harout72 (talk) 18:49, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Request for Rollback

User:Carerra

• Carerra (talk · contribs · deleted · count · AfD · logs · block log · lu · rfar · spi) | give rollback

I would like rollback because I edit on a very slow dial-up connection and it is hard to revert vandalism! Carerra 20:14, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

My request for bureaucratship

Dear PPG, thank you for taking part in my RfB. As you may know, it was not passed by bureaucrats.
I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight.
I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community.
I was a little miserable after the results came out, so I'm going to spread the love via dancing hippos. As you do. :)
I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor. If at any point you see something problematic in my actions, please do not hesitate to call me out. ~ Riana ⁂ 11:44, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Lovely to see you around again! :) ~ Riana ⁂ 11:44, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Changed this because it was linking to EVula's page. Cheers. miranda 04:38, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for correcting my incorrect coding!¤~Persian Poet Gal 21:50, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Advice please

Dear Persian Poet Gal,

You blocked User:Cult free world here for personal attacks. He is at it again with made-up, potentially-libelous posts against myself and another user again, see this. Help and advice would be appreciated. Renee (talk) 19:36, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

• Sorry that I could not be of much assistance. Too much time has passed and any action taken at this moment would be highlly unfair. Next time however, if I am unable to help you with this issue or you notice inappropriate behavior from Cult free again, try contacting an admin that is active at the moment. I usually check the activity logs and look up admin's names to see who is active.¤~Persian Poet Gal 21:50, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your response and good luck with school. We're still actively trying to deal with the user here. Wearily yours, Renee

Irish Wiktionary

Hello Persian Poet Gal.

I'd like to inform you about an impostor on the Irish Wiktionary who's chosen your name. If you'd like to usurp this account please contact me or another steward. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 00:18, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for blocking the imposter. Not sure if I'm interested in usurping, so feel free to leave the block in place for now.¤~Persian Poet Gal 21:50, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
