Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 21:33, 18 July 2008

Why did you do that?

I am not sure what this edit mean? It seems as if you were removing it from the list of RfCU's to be listed. If so, can you explain your reasoning, please? - Arcayne () 22:22, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

It's already listed at the bottom of the page in the non-compliant section, meaning a clerk thinks there is a problem with it. I was removing the duplicate listing I accidentally created. Thatcher 00:59, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Checkuser policy

There is some concern over whether your recent edit to the checkuser policy is an attempt at clarification or a change in Board-directed policy. A comment in the checkuser section of requests for permissions (specific case affected by this change is linked) could go a great deal towards resolving the confusion. Thank you!

OK. Thatcher 17:32, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Fragments of Jade

Hello,

Sorry to bother you again with that, but I was wondering about your decision to block the user Fragments of Jade ...

On her discussion page, you explained that you saw her break the 3RR on July 2 , but I'm only seeing three edits by Fragments of Jade on that day? Erigu (talk) 03:52, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Probation violation

Astrotrain (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) seems to be violating the terms of his probation again, thought I would give you a heads up.--Finalnight (talk) 18:59, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

• You should make a report to WP:AE. Thatcher 19:21, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
  • Never mind, I couldn't see the full terms of the probation due to all the silly photos he added to his talk page.--Finalnight (talk) 19:39, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Ban of my account

Dear Administrator, I am writing in regards to my account in hope that you may help. Another wikipedia editor who I knew personally was seriously abusing sockpuppetry. You did a checkuser that showed we had different accounts but said it is likely we are the same person. You said we are in the same geographic area, which is true, but we are one hour apart! We did both go to a Buddhist festival at the same time as well. We were still on totally different ISPs.

I was using a second account when I first started on wikipedia, but stopped completely after I learned about sockpuppeting. I would like to request for you to look at this that my account be unbanned. I have not edited since I was banned.

Here is the checksuser: http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/Wisdombuddha

My account is wisdombuddha and the one I stopped using was wikilama. Fourthdragpa was another person at the residential Buddhist Center where I work from. I have no idea about flowerlover67, maybe someone from my corporation. The user who abused sockpuppetry was Wisdomsword and used Geoffduggan, Helen38, Helen37, Trudy21, ect.

I do not think it is fair that I have been banned indefinitely and all the sockpuppets are put on my account. I have also asked other admins to look into this. Thanks wisdombuddha —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.98.193.243 (talk) 00:17, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Related Note: Thegone (talk · contribs) (who had similar style to Geir Smith (talk · contribs)) was banned this morning and edited the same cross section of articles. Not sure if it warrents a check user request since both those accounts are already banned. But might relate. - Owlmonkey (talk) 22:43, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Wisdombuddha and Thegone are on opposite sides of the dispute. Thatcher 03:06, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, I meant that Thegone and Smith might be one and the same. Moot at this point since they're both banned? Or still worth submitting a request since they might request unblocking? - Owlmonkey (talk) 06:38, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Smith's edits are too old for comparison. Thatcher 11:02, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Eichikiyama

Can you take a look at this new account Eichikiyama (talk · contribs)? The user's deletion campaign pretty much resemble like Azukimonaka (talk · contribs) for the user's same habits (blanking only Korean related mentions from ancient Japan and distorting information on food related articles). Or seems like Watermint (talk · contribs) or Boldlyman (talk · contribs), The user in question deleted cited info as stating that "no source" or "it is not true according to source", however all of which are not true.--Caspian blue (talk) 12:50, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Checkuser stats

Kelly Martin posted on Troll Review that "It would be informative, perhaps even nice, if the other checkusers would provide similar information, but I don't expect we'll be seeing such information from the likes of Raul654, David Gerard, or especially Jayjg." I don't have her contact information handy, so I'd appreciate it if you could see to it that she sees this. (Note: An 'incident' is a set of checkusers done in succession.)
