Sock targets

Let me know the main targets of the socks and I'll protect them for a long term, try to get them to lose interest. They'll have to at least create new accounts and get autoconfirmed, so more work to do for Mr. Sock as well. Dreadstar ☥ 05:42, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

I agree. :) Sounds like a great plan. Thank you very much for trying to help in solving this chronic and intractable problem. I will check to see which other articles are most frequently hit by the socks and I'll let you know. Thank you also for already protecting many of the target articles. It is the first time an admin has taken large-scale, cohesive action in that regard and it is much appreciated and badly needed. Take care. Δρ.Κ.  06:03, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

Greek in Albania

The Notes are from 1980 Census. Today (2012) we have 3% Greeks in Albania not 6%.

There are other references from the 2000s, 2007, 2008 which say otherwise. Anyway this belongs at the talk of the article not here. Δρ.Κ.  22:35, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

DYK

Thank you so much for your contributions! I hope all the requirements for the DYK has been fulfilled. Proudbolsahye (talk) 03:40, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Thank you and you are very welcome. I made some additional comments on your talk. Δρ.Κ.  03:52, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Jessica Lange page

Why are you reverting my edits when what I've contributed is what is clearly being asked for, i.e. references and additional information? Sister Jude Martin (talk) 06:26, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Please participate at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/MarkAlexisGabriel. Δρ.Κ.  06:30, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

You're truly pathetic. lol. Sister Jude Martin (talk) 06:42, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Alexis, please let's keep this simple. You put your ducks in the wrong row. Don't blame me for doing my job. In any case I am definitely not a "Streeper". I actually like Jessica better. Δρ.Κ.  06:49, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Dime - not "dime-a-dick" but *dime*, porque? Porque me molestas y borras mi trabajo? Why? Sister Jude Martin (talk) 07:07, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

No habla Espanol I'm afraid. Δρ.Κ.  07:10, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Finally! You're talking to me like a normal human being. Now, tell me, what exactly am I doing wrong with my edits? I've left most of the edits that have been made to this page despite my preferences. I've only added references where citations were needed and fleshed out the page a bit using the information I found in some of the new articles I've provided links for. What. is. the. problem? IP for Sister Jude Martin-> 76.109.97.68 (talk) 07:01, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Ok. If you are willing to change then do the following so that we can break the sock-SPI-block-sock etc. cycle. Ask for an unblock from the main MarkAlexisGabriel account promising that you are not going to continue using socks to edit-war your preferred edits into the article. We can then take it from there. Δρ.Κ.  07:07, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

I don't have an account by that name. The only active Wiki account I have is this one. Please don't revert my edits. It was hard work and, being a fan (yes, I admit it), I think my edits improve the page without compromising the encyclopedic nature of the entry. 76.109.97.68 (talk) 07:12, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

I gave you the best advice I could. It is up to you now to follow it. In any case Best of the Season to you. You may be a WP:DUCK but you seem like an otherwise nice person. Δρ.Κ.  07:21, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

lol. Why haven't you addressed the main issue: whether or not my edits are counter-productive to the encyclopedic integrity of the page? You haven't done this yet. I'd understand if I were making edits that were contrary to the rules and guidelines, but I'm not! I'm provided references that have been asked for by "citation needed" flags, for goddsakes! :sigh: I hope you respond. Quack-quack. 76.109.97.68 (talk) 07:28, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Cyprus

Since the article has been protected indefenitely and the arguments for splitting it are completely baseless, shouldn't the split notice be removed? Can you ask an admin to do it as you are a more experienced user? Thanks 94.46.15.18 (talk) 19:41, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

You are right. It is just another round of the same old tendentious and POV arguments. I don't think this will go anywhere in exactly the same way it got rejected before and it will be closed soon enough on its own. Δρ.Κ.  19:56, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Another thing that worths notice is an article recently created called Bloody Christmas which appears to be very biased and by searching the sources through online resources it looks like the content of the article doesn't exactly comply with what's writen in the sources. In addition, I think it should be part of the Cypriot intercommunal violence as this is what it is about. It just states a single incidence of the intercommunal violence. Sorry for being annoying, this is the last post...

Thanks 94.46.15.18 (talk) 20:00, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

I wouldn't be surprised if the new article you mentioned is just another WP:POVFORK. I'll check into that, just give me some time. And far from being annoying you are always very welcome on my talk. Thank you for your excellent comments on these issues. Best of the Season to you. Take care. Δρ.Κ.  20:05, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
