Mike Comrie

Hey,

Note sure if you're aware or not, but to be included on the specific season page a player has to meet very stringent criteria (see here: Misplaced Pages:WikiProject_Ice_Hockey/NHL_season_pages_format#Debuts_and_Last_Games), which is meant to keep those who play just a few games or have minor journeyman careers (which I would argue Comrie fall under), as the list would simply just become too long. Note that this is a much more stringent criteria than WP:GNG or WP:NHOCKEY for having their own page. I looked closely, but don't see any category which Comrie falls under. If i'm wrong, re-add with the source (retirement, that is); or if you want to contest it, do so at the talk page. Ravendrop 02:59, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Your edit on Act of Valor

Hello, I've reverted your edit on Act of Valor. It seems there was a missunderstanding. The parts I edited back in weren't the parts that were subject to a copyright violation. The "obvious copyright violation" that Parrot of Doom was talking about was not reverted back into the article. Also, with your edit, you reverted some vandalism back into the article and removed a valid category. This is also why I reverted your edit. 77.248.191.124 (talk) 15:14, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

April 2012

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on List of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. TransporterMan (TALK) | DR goes to Wikimania! 00:34, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

Frid

Hi, Rusted. Well, I won't revert at this point, but now the article contradicts itself: The lead and the infobox say April 14, but the main article body, in the death section, gives both the 13th and the 14th. We can't have the article contradict itself. What would be the best solution? --Tenebrae (talk) 02:49, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Well, it's more than speculation — it was reported the 13th by the LA Times, the Washington Post and USA Today, to name three major papers. And both they and the ones saying the 14th have cited family sources since the family made a premature statement and then told a few papers something different. So that's not a practical phrase. And having someone shoot the tombstone is OR.

With all due respect, when major WP:RS papers contradict themselves, we can only report what they all say. Picking one over the other is POV. It also goes against the consensus on the article talk page.--Tenebrae (talk) 03:00, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

The Intouchables on 2012 in film

Hi Rusted AutoParts,

I've noticed that you have been removing The Intouchables from the list of highest grossing films on 2012 in film. Currently, the majority of people participating in a discussion on Talk:2012 in film think that The Intouchables should be included on the top 10 list. As I explained there, if we want to list films by the how much money they made in a given calander year, that would require significant changes to the film years lists. For instance, films like Avatar and Titanic, that made lots of money in the following year after their release, would need to be moved to another year or appear on two lists. Many other films might change places on the lists, as many films that were released near the end of the year probably made a lot of their money in the next year. I think the easiest way to handle the lists (and the way I think they have been handled until now) is to list films' grosses all for one year, and to use Box Office Mojo as the source for what year a film is counted in. I don't see a compelling reason to change from doing that. If you disagree, please discuss the reasons why you think we should do something different at Talk:2012 in film, rather than just removing The Intouchables from the list without explanation. Calathan (talk) 13:17, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

Edit-warring on BLPs

Your recent editing history at Bill Maher shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Your edit summary (he is very against religion. He is atheist) indicates a misunderstanding of what an Athiest is; it has nothing to do with religion, and refers to deities. Your edit summary (give me a source saying he's agnostic, whereas his actions on his show clearly show otherwise) indicates a misunderstanding of Misplaced Pages editing policy; we do not edit BLPs based on our own perceptions of a person's actions. We must rely instead on reliable sources. Maher has self-identified many times as an Agnostic. He has been referred to as an Agnostic in a multitude of reliable sources, such as this one, so he would fit that category. He has at times even denied that he is an Atheist. Xenophrenic (talk) 03:26, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Comic book movie

Hey i didn't want to revert you...but comic book movie seems to count as unreliable source. Tenebrae probably started with the realization of that. But overall if you notice it even says "fansite" on the url and that is close enough to prove that it's not really on Misplaced Pages's standards. Even still go on with your good work on Misplaced Pages Jhenderson 19:39, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Tom Maynard 18 June 2012

Catherine

Once you stop being rude.Rusted AutoParts 14:26, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

What on earth are you talking about? I am completely perplexed. You think it's rude to mention her scar? I think there are probably hundreds of people who heard something from a source of questionable reliablilty (say, Entertainment Tonight), and would come to us for the accurate story, which--with a source like the Daily Mail--we could provide for them. You are entitled to disagree about whether or not this merits inclusion, but to suggest I'm being rude is preposterous.

Understand this: We do not all think identically here, and we need to recognize that when dealing with others. If you think I'm being rude, explain why, because it's sure as hell not clear to me why you think this. (Note: I do accept that you are being sincere in this accusation; if I was presuming to know everything, I might just conclude that you were being a troll, but I'm choosing to regard this as incomplete communication.) But when you do communicate, please be careful in how you do it. I still have absolutely no idea what word you were intending when you wrote "intricle". I looked it up, it doesn't exist, so I tried to guess what word you may have misspelled, and I just can't figure it out. So the point is, I'm trying to understand you. Now do your part, and please make yourself more clear.

And of course, it follows from this, that perhaps I'm failing to make myself clear. If this is the case, please say so.

Cheers, 76.106.149.108 (talk) 13:28, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Firstly, i was referring to previous edit summaries, where you have a rude demeanor. And your reply here is quite rude with sentences like "understand this" or doing this to certain words. And intrical (i spelt it wrong) is another word for integral, meaning it isn't a necessary part of the article. Rusted AutoParts 14:28, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Thank you, RAP, for your civil and cogent response. I'd like to reply now:

• First of all, on the article in question, I have made four edits, and left three edit summaries. To wit:

1. Edit summary: No edit summary was left; I suppose that could be regarded as uncivil.
2. Edit summary: Kiss off. Was that uncivil? Clearly, yes. Yet I hasten to point out that a) this was several days ago, b) it did not involve you, and c) the involved editor and I have worked things out rather well.
3. Edit summary: Respectfully disagree with reverting editor. Consider A) it got a lot of coverage in the meda, and B) wikipedia is increasingly THE source for accurate information, and someone could well come here looking to verify this. Was this uncivil? Not in any universe I've visited. Indeed, if there were an award for the Epitome in Edit Summary Excellence, I think I'd put my own name in nomination for that one. And I hasten to point out that the editor I reverted there, User:Dodger67, expressed no misgivings about my demeanor.
4. Edit summary: Well, I think we can agree that the addition was not "intricle" to the article, or anything else. I'll hold off on reverting your removal of material that I believe I justified, and ask that you tell us what word you were trying to use. Was this uncivil? I'm presuming you think it was, since this is the only one of my edit summaries that pertains directly to you. Here's my take: Actions speak louder than words. Now look at my actions: I did NOT revert you, even though I disagreed with you, because I wanted to give you another chance to explain yourself. If that's not civil, I don't know what is.

My conclusion is that my edit summaries, while imperfect, do not distract so greatly that we could not have been discussing the content of the article, which is what I was clearly trying to do.

• When you say I am being rude by using phrases like "Understand this", I am not totally certain I understand, but I'm guessing that you feel it sounds dogmatic or overbearing. I choose, when I read someone else's words (and knowing that I cannot see them) to interpret their words as charitably as possible, so I would never have come to that conclusion. But, keeping in mind WP:CIVIL, I have to acknowledge that I cannot expect other editors to read the way I do. So I apologize for giving offense, and will try to avoid this in the future (though I'm sure the habit will take a long time to break).
• Now when you say I do this to certain words, are you speaking of the use of italics to indicate emphasis? If this is a complaint, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. RAP, if we were sitting down in the same room, both you and I (unless you are a Rusty Bot) would be italicizing words all the time. Written English provides very few ways to add natural emphasis to our words. Of the four that come to mind (underlining, boldfacing, italicizing, and ALL CAPS), I tend to think that italicizing is the mildest and yet most effective way to imitate the natural "feel" of speech. And I don't understand why it would offend you. I've been editing Misplaced Pages since 2006, and this is the first time I've ever seen that complaint.

Good talking to you. 76.106.149.108 (talk) 16:19, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

I don't know, maybe it's the way you come off. I read this and all i can think of is "this guy is rude." Especially when you go into great detail to defend yourself, and even in the above comment, it seems very rude and condescending.Rusted AutoParts 04:58, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Well, I don't really know what to say. When I speak briefly, via edit summaries, I come across rude. When I "go into great detail", I come across rude. It's not helpful that you're not nailing down details, but that's not necessarily your fault, since sometimes (just as you say) someone can just "come off" in a certain way.

I think it's best in a situation like this to simply assume good faith (which shouldn't be too hard to do, since I'm taking an awful lot of time trying to work things out with you) and instead of inferring my attitude, just look at my work and my ideas for the articles. After all, even if I am a bastard, that doesn't mean I can't be a valuable contributor to the encyclopedia, right? What do you say? 76.106.149.108 (talk) 12:16, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

2012 in film

I checked a few of the names you removed here, and the ones I looked at appear to be legitimate 2012 film industry deaths? Is there a reason you removed them? Cresix (talk) 21:45, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Every actor is considered notable if he/she has a Misplaced Pages article. I will be restoring them. In the future, please get a consensus on the talk page for such a major deletion instead of making a unilateral decision. If you feel that some of the actors are not notable enough for Misplaced Pages, you can go through the normal deletion process. Thanks. Cresix (talk) 21:55, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Since you're a regular I won't template you. But I suggest that you review WP:EW and ask you to discuss on the talk page instead of edit warring and making unilateral decisions. That's the way it's done on Misplaced Pages. You've been around long enough to know that. Cresix (talk) 19:21, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

Edit warring includes more than 3RR. Again, review WP:EW. You are edit warring if you continue to revert after being asked to discuss on the talk page. Your opinion about what is "bloated" carries no more weight than my opinion or any other editor's opinion. All of the names are linked to Misplaced Pages articles. You alone don't decide what is notable. Please stop continuing to remove the information without getting consensus on the talk page. As I said, you've been around long enough to know this. Cresix (talk) 19:32, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

1991 in film

Hi Rusted AutoParts. I've just come across the "Notable deaths" section in this article, where you've edited it to include many people who died in 2010. It appears it has stayed that way for months now. I'm confused as to what's going on there. In your edit summary you refer to "an expansion process"...? Thanks, Paul Erik 07:11, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Madison Lintz

The article Madison Lintz has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Misplaced Pages policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Mr. Vernon (talk) 16:59, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Smallville

Your recent editing history at Smallville shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. This includes being petty and just removing all images entirely because you don't like people disagreeing with you.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 00:06, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

• Just a heads up, you're past 3RR with this edit. It's likely someone will report you at WP:AN3, if you don't mind me suggesting, perhaps the best thing to do would be to self-revert until some consensus is reached on the talk page, in order to avoid being blocked? - SudoGhost 00:19, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

Deaths in August 2012

Take a look at this article House of Japan news report which dates from November 2010 and this Japan Today article which dates to January 2011. Now, it is possible that a politican with the name of Minoru Mizuta did also die in August 2012 but I was unable to find any independent corroboration of this asserted fact, all I could find in my research were mirror-sites to Misplaced Pages.

Knighthood

When a man receives a knighthood, 'Sir' becomes a title part of their style of address. What on earth can it have to do with 'weight'? Sam Blacketer (talk) 16:31, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

I'm disappointed that you have not replied. You are quite wrong; WP:NCR states that biography articles on Knights do not normally include 'Sir' in the article title, save where it is useful for disambiguation, but it is still a title that is invariably quoted on the entries in the Deaths in ... series. Have a look back at some old entries if you want confirmation. I have raised this issue on Talk:Deaths in 2012#Knights. Sam Blacketer (talk) 19:39, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Madison Lintz

The article Madison Lintz has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Misplaced Pages policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

I reverted the redirect and PRODded the article as I don't think it's correct to redirect a person's bio to a TV show she appeared in. She has appeared in several other roles. It should either be made a real sourced article or deleted.

See WP:REDIRECT#DELETE: "If the redirect could plausibly be expanded into an article, and the target article contains virtually no information on the subject. In such a case, it is better that the target article contain a redlink than a redirect back to itself." Barsoomian (talk) 05:39, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Don't just put the redirect back. See Misplaced Pages:BLPPROD#Objecting. And The Walking Dead is not her only credit. She's also in Parental Guidance (film), After (2012 film) at least. That's why it's wrong to redirect to The Walking Dead. Barsoomian (talk) 14:30, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Nomination of Madison Lintz for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Madison Lintz is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Madison Lintz until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Barsoomian (talk) 15:56, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

November 2012

Rusted AutoParts (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Well, considering the debate is still open and i've been blocked before i had the chance to explain myself, perhaps we should look at this as trigger happy and too soon? Plujs, allow me to point out the editor whose feelings i've "hurt" continued to revert? A little biased in his favor too.

Decline reason:

No grounds for unblock provided. This was quite sufficient. --jpgordon 22:20, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Your defence to "personal attacks" is "BUT WAIT, PEOPLE ARE STILL TALKING"? And you have a chance to explain yourself here. I'd suggest you take advantage of it. Ironholds (talk) 22:09, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Note. I notice this User Account has been blocked 3 times. I do not understand how This can lead to a Block, unlike the other Blocks that I seen on this User Account before. This is not too extreme to lead to a Block again. I suggest giving him a Warning instead, with a strong reminder that the next time will be an Semi-Permanent Block.--Bumblezellio (talk) 09:38, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

My problem is that there is an ANI discussion about the conduct i used on the BB talk page and i can't discuss it as i was blocked way before i had the chance to explain plus the block wasn't even suggested at all, one editor just did it. I'm wondering why this occured when a block for the personal attacks wasn't even suggested. RAP (talk) 14:10 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Alright, i'll move the ANI discussion here.

Rusted AutoParts (talk · contribs) began reverting me on Breaking Bad without discussion. When I initiated one on the talk page (here), he instantly became aggravated and starting pouring a bucket of ad hominems at me, while skewing other editors' opinions to conveniently suit his editing choice, which is discriminatory and offensive in nature. This is how his replies build up:

• Bullshit.
• Classic case of discrimination. (Pot calling the kettle... what?)
• "Corrected" the previous attack to an even more obviously personal one: Classic case of Americanism. "Made in America, so English only". Proud of yourself? (referring to my reply here, where I merely pointed out that it only makes sense that a US production, which airs on a US channel, will be primarily in English.)
• The big finish: Suck my d**k.

I know I should have known better and stopped reverting too, but RAP's outrageous barrage of attacks got the best of me. Hearfourmewesique (talk) 18:11, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Where do I begin? Bullshit. This wasn't even directed at you personally, i was stating that your theory German was a main language was. German was used twice in two episodes of one season, and Spanish, as Drivethroughosts pointed out, has been used in 4 seasons in a highly used manner. Classic case of discrimination. (Pot calling the kettle... what?)

"Corrected" the previous attack to an even more obviously personal one: Classic case of Americanism. "Made in America, so English only". Proud of yourself? (referring to my reply here, where I merely pointed out that it only makes sense that a US production, which airs on a US channel, will be primarily in English.) Now, i was going to remove this completely, but I know that is frowned upon. I thought it was the case as it was odd your focus shifted to just English being used, but I soon realized that you were just being petty because German was removed. Speaking of which, how did you get off scot clean when you continuously edit warred, even when i asked you stop until someone had the same exact view as you (Spanish and German, or none), as the comments clearly stated they were fine with Spanish staying in? And lastly is where the only place I'll apologize for (My car was damaged purposely around this time, so i was pretty pissed off). Asking anyone to perform fellatio is just grotesque, so i do apologize. None of these responses were aimed to be personal, but seeing as it hurt your feelings, i sit confused. I could just as easily cry at the sheer stupidity that was displayed. But i won't as i rarely cry and you aren't stupid, but the whole situation was stupid and unnecessarily escalated. Now, with that said, Hearfourmewesique, if it's an apology you seek, you'll not receive one (except the fellatio), but i do hope you acknowledge this wasn't a personal attack, just poorly expressed frustration. RAP (talk) 15:11 4 November 2012 (UTC)

"suck my dick" is merely poorly expressed frustration? Get better at expressing frustration. Find a way of doing it that isn't so gratuitously and unnecessarily offensive. People who don't tend not to (or, rather shouldn't) last. Ironholds (talk) 15:26, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I already explained what spawned that crude and awful response. Some kids keyed my car and smashed a window. I wasn't exactly pleased in real life and on here. I regret the statement and can only hope that you can see that. RAP (talk) 15:33 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I hope it passes in court for you someday: "Sorry your honor, some kids smashed my car window so I stabbed my neighbor." If you truly believe this is not a personal attack, you might be unsuitable for Misplaced Pages altogether. Hearfourmewesique (talk) 20:54, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

• A couple more points:

1. Even if "bullshit" wasn't directed at me, this is not an appropriate tone to begin your part of a discussion. Especially when you refused to initiate it to begin with, forcing me to do so myself.
2. Someone DID have the exact same view as I, it was TheOldJacobite, the second comment in the thread. Another editor expressed that his ideal position is just English, but he didn't care for it enough to vote either way. It doesn't mean, by ANY applicable logic, that he supports you, mainly because his ideal position is the same as mine. You are still misrepresenting those editors, and if that's not bad enough – you point at me in the most infantile of manners (hey look, the kid I just threw a rock at spilled ice cream over your lawn!) to try and soften your own fall. This, too, is extremely unsuitable for Misplaced Pages.
3. Another piece of advice (still unsure why I even bother to begin with) – remaining unapologetic and refusing to acknowledge that you actually did hurt someone's feelings by putting quotation marks and using excessive sarcasm whenever the subject comes up is, again, the last thing you want to do. That is, if you want to redeem yourself. Hearfourmewesique (talk) 21:22, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Some tips for you as well:

• When someone asks for you to wait until a more ironed out consensus (IE, if that one editor is divided, you and Jacobite say no and me and another editor say it's fine) DON'T continue to revert, even if "my outrageous barrage of attacks" (i'm not putting quotes around this as a sarcastic theme, rather quoting what you said) gets "the best of you" (again, not meant to be sarcastic). I've been in that boat before, it don't hold water.
  • When someone says "They misread your intentions" (meaning when you claimed I discriminated against you, how?) for one thing and then realizing it was you saying "my way or the highway", don't continue claiming discrimination, as it's slanderous to me.
    • No one is a saint or a sinner in this case. My hopes is for both of us to push this behind us and be able to work together rather than biting one another's head off. And yes, my anger towards the vandals to my car should not have been radiated onto you. I am much calmer and reading back on half the things i've said, i must have come off as a giant asshole. I do apologize in all scenarios and perhaps this month block would give me time to really work on becoming a better editor. RAP (talk) 21:55 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Regardless of the merit of your arguments, you are again resorting to edit-warring and personal attacks in edit summaries (such as here) as opposed to pursuing dispute resolution.

GA Review

Hello there. I was wondering if you'd be interested in a reviewing an article for GA; Cane Ashby. It is a soap opera article, and I thought I would ask you to see if you'd have any interest because I see you reviewed another soap article, Ken Barlow, awhile back. If you could let me know at your earliest convenience, it would be gladly appreciated. Thank you! Regards, Creativity97 23:02, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Come on, I don't want to partake in a WP:LAME edit war. Fleming was a journeyman NHL assistant coach. Just having one example implies that he was most notable/known for his service to one team, which he was clearly not (the article does not even mention his time in Phoenix, news articles don't refer main mainly to his coaching in Phoenix, rather, like I'm saying, to his "longtime" service as a assistant). I'm not being selfish at all by removing the one example - like I said, if all the teams he coached with were listed then I'd be fine. But just listing one team of a journeyman coach gives off the wrong message and I don't understand your adamancy in having the one Phoenix example. – Connormah (talk) 03:03, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Can you stop with the reverting and maybe have a discussion? Listing one team for a journeyman like Fleming was does not give off good impressions. His name is not automatically associated with Philadelphia or Phoenix, rather, as I stated before, as a "longtime NHL assistant coach". – Connormah (talk) 04:35, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Could you point me to the guideline that states that we need to have examples for all sports coaches? – Connormah (talk) 04:42, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

That doesn't answer my question. I've already stated why I think there shouldn't be an example (or why all teams should be listed), I'm really wanting to know why you are so adamant that one example should be listed... – Connormah (talk) 04:46, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

You don't need to get snappy. Come on, I don't feel like partaking in a pissing match with you. Did you even read my reasoning however? I think I've made it clear that he had coached many teams and isn't known for particularly one or two, as is with most sports-related people. Just because other sports-related deaths list examples, we can always disregard precedent for cases like this where I think the reasoning is acceptable. – Connormah (talk) 04:58, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

I do not have any favouritism at all towards the subject, no need to get accusatory - another editor is responsible for the bulk of the content but that should not matter either. I am just trying to provide a neutral and accurate depiction of his career. "It's the way it goes" is not a strong rebuttal to my arguments on your part. – Connormah (talk) 05:04, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

I've requested outside input at the RD talk page. And my argument certainly was not that he had a longtime career - it is that he had worked for many teams during his coaching career and that listing one implies that he is more notable for one rather than any other. If, say he spent 10+ years with one team and was a prominent fixture, I'd have no problem. But that doesn't seem to be the case here. Most news stories mention the teams he was with in passing. – Connormah (talk) 05:11, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

This is the IP,speaking to both of you,

I dislike the Kuwait pic because the Kuwait base looks like a film 112.209.28.204 (talk) 03:04, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

Although I seen RAP's many stories that ended with "blocketry", I have to agree with him on this one. The Kuwait pic isn't as good as the 2012 pic in terms of WP:IRELEV comparison. Furthermore, the 2012 pic fits her current age better than the Kuwait pic, so why bother reverting back rather than Keep Moving Forward? --Bumblezellio (talk) 06:15, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

The image that RAP proposes has high ISO, making it full of noise. It is not fully in focus, and the subject is not looking into the camera. Nymf _{talk to me} 09:20, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

RAP, the IPs you are referring to is all the same, and is a sockpuppet of an indefinitely blocked user. They are not meant to edit Misplaced Pages anymore, and the article has been semi-protected to prevent them from further discussing Scarlett Johansson at all. If you look at the history of these IPs, they are edit warring other articles in similar manners. Look at the edit history of Need for Speed: World, for example. We cannot treat blocked sockpuppets like it is okay, or that their opinion matters; if we do, they will just keep doing it. Nymf _{talk to me} 09:20, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Joel DiBartolo

The article Joel DiBartolo has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No apparent reason for redirect to the TV show. If anything, to the article on The Tonight Show Band, but hardly seems necessary either. Either the guy is sufficiently relevant to "deserve" his own article or he isn't, but redirecting in this case just ends up with everyone going round in circles.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I did not mean to "pull rank" and apologize for my intemperate edit summary.

CaptainAssassin/redirects

I request User:MichaelQSchmidt to examine this. Like before, CA had been pushing redirects I made in order to institute his own versions, which was completely unnecessary. He is now doing it again, with the relocation of Annie (2014 film), Rodham (film), Z for Zachariah (film), Gods of Egypt (film) and Blade Runner 2. I request the edit histories of these be merged as it is not necessary to make a new redirect only because you want credit/control of it.Rusted AutoParts 02:44, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Please don't use your talk page to request other editors to make edits for you while you are blocked.—Kww(talk) 03:45, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

I'm not asking him to do it on my behalf, he knows that this guy has done it before, and it seems that now I'm blocked, he returned to this unnecessary method, resulting in unnecessary redirects as well as false ones. They simply should be merged as one history. Rusted AutoParts 04:39, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

To Kww.... found this only by accident. I have not been following CA nor RAP around but in looking at the redirects set by RAP and the "tweaks" by CA, I have input:

1. The redirect for Annie (2014 film) should indeed go to Annie (1982 film)#Remake as, even if not yet meriting a separate article, it makes sense that the 2014 remake be discussed there until it does so merit. And as we have other Annie film articles about other Annie films, per WP:NCF it should be "Annie (2013 film)" and not simply "Annie (movie)"
2. The redirect for the distant Rodham_(2015_film) should not have been created (sorry RAP) unless the redirect was to send readers to someplace where, in its not yet meriting an article, the future film is being discussed. I looked, but could not find it in the quite lengthy article on Hillary Clinton, so the RAP redirect was premature. In the same vein however, CA should not have redirected it unless he was sending readers to someplace where it was being discussed... and it is NOT being discussed in his redirect choice. So in both cases, AS a redirect it does not (currently) serve to increase a readers's understanding of the topic.
3. "Z for Zachariah (film)" is also too soon for its own article. In this instance, CA's redirect of RAP's "Z for Zachariah" redirect to Z for Zachariah (novel)#Film does send readers to the one place wehre (for now) it is sensible for it to be discussed. As they are both reasonable search terms, "Z for Zachariah" should go to the novel and "Z for Zachariah (film)" should go to the section in the novel's article where the proposed film is discussed.
4. "Gods of Egypt (film)" is a fine redirect all by itself, a proper disambig from "Gods of Egypt" (article on Egyptian dieties)... and asna film IS discussed at the director article target. Fine. However, per WP:NCF the diambig'd "Gods of Egypt (2014 film)" is unneccessary.
5. With Ridely Scott confirming that there is to be a next (as yet untitled) Blade Runner film, it is sensible that readers be sent to Blade Runner#Possible follow-ups, or even a new section there dedicated to the confirmed as a planned-and-in-pre-production film. "Blade Runner 2" is a possible title, sure... but has no confirmation. As the term "Blade Runner" needs to be disambig'd, CA's sending readers to "Blade Runner (1982 film)" is a decent place for the next film to be discussed.

Long and short here... I think both RAP and CA need to better plan the targets for redirects, pay a little more attention to WP:NCF, discuss things, or seek neutral input from others. Nothing either has done is irreversible, but nothing either has done needs to have been done hurriedly. I think that by working together the two could accomplish a lot. By the by fellows, I hate drama. Gives me a headache. Schmidt, 09:44, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

So is there any way for the redirects histories to be merged? They are all essentially the same thing, only he renamed them, like before, to receive credit. Rusted AutoParts 10:35, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Some of his renamings were sensible. Some not. But it is not about "getting credit". It's about what is per WP:NCF and what is best for the readers. RAP, we all accept that you are a phenomenal content creator. And even though at least one of those redirects should be deleted as useless, what is best for the project is to make certain that the targets include information to serve readers. Schmidt, 18:26, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

I know, but it's mind boggling as to why he moved the whole redirect, when he could have replaced the content. Now there are redirects that don't need to exist, and should be merged back to ther original place. I'm certain we told him this before. Rusted AutoParts 18:41, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

As nothing done is writ in stone, "mind boggling" would call for patience... and going to WP:THIRD could have brought neutral eyes to the situation and avoided your temp block for warring. I respect your content creations, but both CA and you would have been directed to study and pay close attention to WP:REDIR#Purposes of redirects as redirects should serve to enlighten or aid readers, and then to WP:NCF to determine best name for a speculated future articles. The lack of communication has resulted in a series of redirects and redirects of redirects that will require -involved others to dissect and determine if they are reasonable or valid. Keep in mind that a proper redlink encourages new content creation far better than does a redirect of a potential article. Even if a stubby and sourced article on a topic, one not yet ready for its own article, ends up with the stub being brought to AFD (not always a bad thing), it brings eyes on the topic and it either gets improved or we determine the best redirect. When there are conflicts, always best to step back and seek input from others. Schmidt, 19:55, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Imunderstand the part about validity part of the problem, but my issue is he had no real reason to relocate a perfectly fine redirect, which redirect completely to the right area, to a new, unnecessary location. The edit histories prove this. He didnt need to make new redirects. This is the chain of redirects you're talking about. It wasn't an issue until he took it upon himself to move the content onto a new page than change it on the already existent one. That's why I'm erked. That and I warned before against doing it like that. He didn't listen. If you were to look at his edit history, you'd see he's suddenly interested in creating the placeholders for films (announced and unannounced), so I do not think this was made with a concern for the content. Rusted AutoParts 04:15, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

I'll stroll over. And placeholders will be discussed over at project film. Schmidt, 09:04, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Candy Store (film)

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Misplaced Pages, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Candy Store (film), is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. The page has been nominated for deletion, in accordance with Misplaced Pages's criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Assassin! No, Captain Assassin! 22:43, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

I have removed the speedy deletion tag on this article as the "blatant hoax" reason clearly does not apply. Please see the article's talk page for details. - SummerPhD (talk) 23:38, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

You and User:Captain Assassin!

I've see your names pop up a few time and, after a bad speedy deletion tag, I just ran across Into the Woods (musical), Into the Woods (movie project) and Into the Woods (movie).

I don't care who is "right", who "started it" or who did what to whom. Your interactions have become disruptive, IMO. I'd like to suggest that the two of you disengage from one another: If you are about to edit a page that the other editor has recently edited (or a redirect to such a page), simply let it go.

Failing that, I'm fairly sure the two of you will find yourselves discussing this with a few admins, and that is never a pretty thing.

Thoughts? - SummerPhD (talk) 00:10, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

What can I say? I don't want more discussions with any admins, I'm never gonna touch his article again. The last one was just a simple mistake. -- Assassin! No, Captain Assassin! 03:19, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Cobie Smulders

Take a moment and explain to me what all of your previous blocks have taught you about edit-warring, and how it applies to your latest round on Cobie Smulders.—Kww(talk) 16:29, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Learn a new lesson then: when you see a series of reversions breaking out, take it to the talk page first and don't participate, especially when it considers something as absolutely meaningless and trivial as an infobox picture. Setting it to the way you want it before taking it to the talk page simply aggravates an already brewing edit-war.—Kww(talk) 16:37, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

For whatever it is worth, the mass changes of infobox images to these (often inferior) Comic Con versions is currently being discussed at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers#Massive changes to infobox images.2C redux. I am of the opinion that it is common courtesy to discuss image changes first. Nymf _{talk to me} 17:56, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Vandalism at Recent Deaths

Please stop removing the Grammy certification of JJ Cale on the Deaths in 2013 page. You have not once defended your edit, but continue to remove the entry, even after a link was provided to his 2008 award for The Road to Escondido. If you wish to discuss it, please bring it up on the Deaths in 2013 Talk Page and the Community can talk about it. We notate a number of Awards on the page including Emmys, Oscars, Grammys and any other major artistic National Awards such as Junos for Canadians and Living Treasure designations in the Far East. Thanks in advance. Sunnydoo (talk) 01:28, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

You signature

Please see WP:SIGLINK and fix your signature accordingly. It would seem that you disabled it months ago. Nymf (talk) 19:17, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Two other people telling you to do the same here and |here. Why haven't you complied? Nymf (talk) 19:19, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

I thought that you had fixed this. Fix your signature to comply with WP:SIGLINK, or you will find your editing privileges removed.—Kww(talk) 19:51, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

I don't understand why you think autosigning has anything to do with it. Are you saying that you get different results between typing ~~~~ and when you press the signature button? It should just be a matter of what you have customized your signature box to contain. As for why I threaten blocks, it's what happens when an editor states that he has no intention of complying with guidelines and policies. When Nymf points a guideline or policy out to you, that should have an equal force to an admin pointing it out to you.—Kww(talk) 20:19, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you for the recent comment you left on my talk page. I know we disagree some times, but I acknowledge the good work you do in maintaining the "Deaths in 20XX" pages, especially in cleaning-up the redlinks. Regards, WWGB (talk) 04:59, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Scarlett Johansson awards page

Please get consensus before reverting it back.

nominating for GA

I notice you're trying to add a nomination directly to WP:GAN. This page is actually maintained by a bot, so all you need to do is nominate an article on its talk page, and it will automatically appear on the GAN list. Instructions for this are in the large warning that appears atop WP:GAN when you try to edit it directly, but you can find the long version at WP:GAN/I. Thanks, and good luck with the nomination! I thought the movie was so-so but I've no doubt your article is much better. -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:44, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

	I'll admit that we got off on the wrong foot with that whole Man of Steel incident. I just thought that what I was contributing to the article was necessary. And I meant it when I said that at that point, I legitimately didn't know what an edit war was. So, here's my peace offering so we can make amends. --Matthew (talk) 18:48, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

• I beg your pardon. You are going off-topic on Talk:Scarlett Johansson so I will bring this to your user talk page instead. This is the photo of Emma Stone which I supported being retained in the article in March 2012. I do not see how it is squinty and I completely fail to see any microphone at all in the shot.

Hey, so why delete the partner parameter in her infobox? The ONLY reason I added him in the first place is being they are engaged now and not just dating, otherwise I wouldn't have added him. Just wondering. Lady Lotus (talk) 16:51, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

You did the move incorrectly. For lack of a better word, you did an "Assassin". You only moved the text, but not the article's history. There should be no reason to manually set the redirect.

Congratulations!

Deaths in 2013

Oh, you win! Life is too short to keep arguing over something so trivial. Besides which, you obviously put a lot of time and effort into helping with the deaths page and in all other respects your contribution is a positive one to be appreciated. I'd only add in a mixture of confusion and friendly remonstrance:

1. If you are in New Zealand's time zone, why does your page say you are from Las Vegas, Nevada and your list of countries visited not mention New Zealand, or for that matter even Australia?

2. Even if one takes New Zealand time - a sensible approach - your last 2 edits have been nearly a day early. Why the persistent desire to pre-empt, even when WWGB has explicitly asked you not to do so, viz. 26 August at 22.33 and 27 August at 04.07. It's hard to avoid the suspicion that that you see it as "your" job to delete the redlinks, and you want to make sure that no one takes it from you to it, even if it means repeatedly and persistently flouting agreed practice.

3. I don't take personally your description of the attempt to maintain the page according to long established and agreed guidelines as "vandalism", as a squint at your user page shows clearly that you have "form" in reacting to other people in this way. But I doubt it is in your interest to misrepresent any change to your work in this way. Your most recent effort, of using threats of a ban is an especially obtuse and intemperate.

The Investigation

Hey Mr. AutoParts. I had a bit of a dispute with TreCoolGuy on the investigation page and now he'd like to be "friends after this is over". He also told me that he wants us to "prove our innocence together". Something really feels fishy here and the fact that The Nateman has still been blank about what is going on only makes my own hunch about Tre sockpuppeting again stronger. He may just be doing a bad job at trying to create a diversion. - Mainstreammark (talk) 01:13, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

I assure you Nateman is no sockpuppet of mine. And its not a diversion, I have no affiliation with Nateman at all. - TreCoolGuy

Re: Redirect delete

It was a red link, and had been that way for over three months, but it was protected from re-creation, which is why you couldn't move it to that title. I've done the appropriate page moves. Graham87 02:03, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

hypocrite

I have one question for you. Why are you ok with The Avengers: Age of Ultron having an article before it has began filming? Its clearly against WP:NFF. Koala15 (talk) 14:34, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

Why would it be its own article if it was my idea to change the name? And it is quite hypocritical to support that page having an article and not this one, Jurassic World is supposed to begin filming even before The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Koala15 (talk) 14:42, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

It seems like its hard for you to grasp that it was my and a few others idea to change it to "Development of Jurassic Park 4", and when a release date was announced we were gonna change it back i don't get how that's so hard for you to understand.

Tre's Making Mistakes

I don't know if you're catching on to this, but the only reason Tre is supporting Locke, is so that when he is pinned down as being a sock-puppeteer yet again, he can have someone to vouch for him. It's like middle-school, where a kid thinks that if he has a friend, he'll be safe for life. It really is quite hysterical. I've also got some evidence of sock-puppetry.

Before you make any further changes to the reporting of deaths on unknown dates, please seek consensus at Talk:Deaths in 2013. There is no precedent for your proposal, and it is quite radical. Thanks, WWGB (talk) 03:56, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Deaths in 2013, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Doomsday (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Ok, enough already

You were warned already, and you were warned before. Calling other editors a "bitter and childish prick" or "how f**king (sic) dare you!" is just not okay. I've blocked your account for a week. You've been warned enough times before yet you persist in attacking other editors - Alison 02:14, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Apology

Alison, I'm sorry for my conduct. I just didnt appreciate him insinuating my edit was vandalistic. I didn't go on a warpath to insult him, so could the block be lifted so me and Scorpion can talk it out maturely? Rusted AutoParts 02:15, 18 December 2013 (UTC) User:Alison? Could you respond? Rusted AutoParts 02:22, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

I'm not going to unblock your account as I'm the blocking admin. You can use the {{unblock}} template to request another admin unblock you, giving a reason why. Here's the boilerplate block message - Alison 02:28, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Rusted AutoParts (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I don't have an excuse for what I did. It was wrong. It was childish, and I apologize. It's unprofessional and I constantly say I'm trying to be civil. I'm just human after all. People get mad and do things they regret. This is something I regret. In my small, almost non existent defense, I was provoked. I made an edit that was supported with an edit summary describing why I was doing the edit. Scorpion messaged me and called me a vandal and said my opinion was irrelevant. I don't appreciate that knee jerk dismissal, as well as the incredibly wrong accusation. I can only say again I am human and tend to fly off the handle, but this outburst is something I hope to be a final one. I wish to be unblocked so me and Scorpion can have a civil and mature talk, and it's something I don't think a week from now should be done. Rusted AutoParts 2:47 am, Today (UTC+0)

Decline reason:

If this was an isolated incident then I'd be quite happy to unblock based on the above - but this is far from the first time that you've been censured for confrontational and abusive behaviour. Frustration with other users is not something that should be dealt with by "flying off the handle" - you know this already. I'd suggest you contemplate the Lederberg quote at the top of your talkpage, and work on containing your own rage: it's that, rather than Scorpion's behaviour, which is the problem here.

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Scorpion, I understood what you're saying, but I responded in kind to your attempt to stir the pot. I should've started a discussion, but you should also know that this isn't Reddit, or Xbox Live. Being condescending and childish is not appreciated or tolerated, and raises questions over whether or not you want to address an issue, or troll. Rusted AutoParts 03:35, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

I'll try my best to have a serious discussion. You know my argument (The RRHOF recognizes them as performers, so inventing a category or outright removing them goes against a number of Misplaced Pages policies), so here's your chance to try to convince me. What is your argument? -- Scorpion 19:48, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

I am not saying they should not be on the article. I'm saying them being filed in the performers section when no further additions have been made makes no more sense. I suggest perhaps filing them in a subsection underneath Performers so the BB's from 2011 can be added. Rusted AutoParts 23:23, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Sure, they were inducted with different rules than the rest, but YOU are the one making the separation. As far as the RRHOF is concerned, they are just normal performer inductees. Here's some advice: Let this one go. You've now been blocked twice for incidents related to this. We've had this debate before and the third opinion givers disagreed with you. And most importantly, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (and many other sources) list those bands as performers (verifiability, No Original Research, etc, etc.). And that's what you can't get past. -- Scorpion 04:39, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Heads up.

It is recommend to stay cool and be civil when disagreeing with a editor. See here too. I wouldn't recommend name calling or being profane in Misplaced Pages. Look at it this way. That's all the administrators are really doing. Giving you time to cool off. You should be unblocked for next week and you can get back on what you like to do here. Ok, partner?

Three Revert Rule

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Andrzejbanas (talk) 22:54, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello AutoParts,

I added drama either once or twice and since them have just been removing genre until the matter is discussed on the talk page. You have been adding it without discussion when it was still up to debate. If you can point out the rules I'm breaking, that would be great, so far you've broken Misplaced Pages:Consensus and WP:3RR. Please leave the genre blank until the matter is settled. Just adding a bunch of bare-urls suggets you aren't taking the genres seriously. Let's do a through research and post our results and invite other members of WP:FILM to discuss it on the talk page first. Also, reverting people who are avoiding discussion is not a violation of WP:3RR, it's reverting vandalism. Andrzejbanas (talk) 22:59, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Blocked again

—Kww(talk) 06:06, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Kww

Come on, User:Kww! How can I fairly defend myself on the edit warring notice board if you already made the choice to block me? I cannot discuss the actual issue that lead to the problem now. Please unblock me. You have no reason to, I know, but I just want to be able to talk with the other editors about this. Rusted AutoParts 06:07, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

If anyone wishes to discuss things with you, they can use your talk page. I suggest that you spend the six months doing something else with your life, and try again when you come back to see if you can debate without edit warring. You haven't been succeeding at that so far.—Kww(talk) 06:11, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Because you made the choice to automatically assume I'm not trying. I am. I've even been intervening with edit wars and warning them as well. Though currently to the, I seem like a hypocrite. I'm not going to give you a son story User:Kww, I have given one too many, but I'm not lying. I am trying. In 6 months the issue will not be furthered and this will be forgotten. I know if I steer clear of the areas I know I might get mad, I'll be fine. And like I said, I've provided no reason to be given a second chance. But if given the opportunity, I know I can prove to you and anyone else Im not a problem editor. Shorten my block, put me on probation, whatever. Just, for me, six months is too long for me to sit out from doing what I enjoy doing: attempting to make this site better. It's not like I'm doing this on purpose.

Rusted AutoParts (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I get too passionate and allow it to affect me as an editor. This is an issue I'd like to discuss without being limited to my talk page. I swear, this "hiccup" will be the last. I'm not someone anyone should wholeheartedly believe in, but I have been able to prove people wrong. Six months is too long for me to be gone. Too long for me to prove myself. Don't give up on me. Please let me prove to you I can be a productive editor without relying on edit warring. Rusted AutoParts 6:23 am, Today (UTC+0)

Decline reason:

I can't help feeling you have had more then enough warnings about your behavior and are well aware of the expected standards of conduct around edit warring and disruption. Your unblock request would have more credence if you could demonstrate that you can control yourself better but the evidence is that you can't. I suggest that you go find something else to do for a while and give yourself some perspective on your bahaviour and make a further unblockj request in a month or two.If you can show good behavior on another WM wiki in the meantime it would bolster your case.

Request reason:

I know I keep saying "This was the last time", but it seems it only keeps happening because situations arise when something I've been told is common practice is suddenly the opposite of what I was told. One day it's "disputed content is removed until consensus is reached". Then suddenly "we leave disputed content on until consensus is reached". It always seems like I put in a position of constantly being the bad guy when all I want to do is debate what I'm debating, but it's suddenly convenient to alter the guidelines to make me look foolish and disruptive. It's confusing. User:Spartaz, I had been keeping in line. I was even intervening in edit wars and stopping them, just check the edit history for Paul Newman. All i really need is a breather. If you won't unblock me, at least shorten it. Six months is a long time to take a breather. There aren't any other Wikimedia sites I'm interested in. I like participating here because I get a wide range of topics to bounce around on. As I said before, it wasn't a war that was being vandalistic or posting false information, I just wanted the content to adhere to a talk page request that I made, but was ignored. Can it at least be noted it was with good intention? And I wasn't lying when I said I thought WP:3RR adhered to reverting the same warringly within a 24 hour period. I didn't know it also covered any edit on a page. Rusted AutoParts 13:21, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Decline reason:

No one is changing the guidelines. The rules for the few exceptions to edit warring haven't changed in years. It is literally almost exactly the same since your first block for edit warring in 2012. "I got bad advice" and not understanding the edit warring policy may be a reasonable excuse for a new user, but you've been here for 3 years and have been blocked for edit warring twice in the past. You should be plenty familiar with policies about it by now. Looking at the history of Paul Newman, it looks like all your did was take a side and continue the edit war by reverting. That is intervening, but not in a particularly constructive way. Helpful intervention would have been something like adding to the discussion on the talk page or requesting page protection.

Request reason:

I wasn't picking sides, I saw the IP had ignored two other editors and continued reverting, so I intervened, removed the controversial edit and warned both editors before going on my way. And yes, I have been here three years and should know by now who constitutes edit warring, but I lseriously misinterpreted the definition. I have read 3RR, but confused myself into thinking that warring meant continuously reverting the same edit three times within 24 hours. It was what the kids call a "brainfart". But I'm not really asking to be unblocked, just seeking a drastic cut to its length. I violated a policy and a penalty must be given, but six months is half a year. That's too long to sit out and think about my conduct when I already know it was wrong. In six months, it'll be July and for me it's too long. Can I request the block be changed to a 2 week or month long block? It'll give me the appropriate time to cool off, take time to refresh myself on 3RR and any other policies that I need catching up on and I serve a penalty for the warring. I understand why it was set at six months as it isn't my first block, but it's a bit extreme and doesn't really serve as a fitting punishment. I'm not purposely going into an article and warring. Leniency is what I ask because, aside from the quick to edit war nature, I do provide beneficial contributions to the site. I've icreated at least over 30 articles, as well as provided great improvement to others. Misplaced Pages's growth is important to me. Please don't make me miss out on helping. Rusted AutoParts 21:36, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I might be willing to consider your request for the block to be shortened if you seemed to understand what the problem is, and if you could give a persuasive indication that the same mistakes won't happen again. However, the more of your unblock requests I read, the more it becomes clear that you don't understand what the problem is. Considering your history of blocks, it seems all too likely that giving another blocks short enough for you to accept might go the same way as the other blocks, even if you honestly want to change. A block long enough that you really feel it may be the one thing that gives you a chance to actually change. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:27, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

User:JamesBWatson, I do understand what the problem is. I edited warred when I was frequently told not to. I didn't keep warring for fun, I just got too passionate about the edit(s) I was fighting for. And if you observe the block histories, you'd see they're spaced out, meaning I'm not just coming back and jumping right back into another edit war. I do try my nest to keep collected and edit without getting combative, and for the most part i do. With the shortened block, I'd be able to take the necessary time to read the guidelines again so I can refresh myself on them, serve a penalty for the edit warring and take some time to cool down. I really don't feel six months is the amount of time I need to understand what I did. I understand it now and am currently re-reading the guidelines so I can be productive in a better way. A majority of those six months will just be waiting. Can I please have the block shortened to a month? I promise you this is the final time, James, or Kww or Spartaz or whoever replies to this. I just want a shorter ban. Rusted AutoParts 13:39, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Template:Cue Admittedly not a policy, but maybe you should take a look at the section of WP:GAB where it states If you make repeated invalid , your talk page access may be revoked which makes it even more difficult to request unblocking. There is a way to hold a conversation while blocked that does not involve numerous unblock requests. GSK ✉ ✓ 17:14, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

I see, GSK. I'll take the request off, but I kinda feel people just ignore me alot, even on talk pages. I just felt requesting was the only way for people to see I'm determined to prove my worth. Rusted AutoParts 17:25, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Rusted AutoParts (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I'll begin by directly addressing the reason behind the block. I know what I did, and the conduct I did it in was wrong. I apologize to those involved and those who I've told time and time again I would stop. This time I am confident will be the finale to that saga of my editing manner. I agree a punishment is necessary as it isn't the first time I've been blocked for this. But for me the length is troublesome as it comes off like I'm someone that needs to be removed as I'm just here to be disruptive. That is not the case. In the three, soon to be four years since I started on this site, I have created 67 articles in the way of film and people. I'm not a constant problem on the site, with me admittingly having some flare ups in my time here. But those flare ups almost always never involve me attempting to vandalize the article, or spam. It's always involving content that has a source, but ultimately is not something that's either noteworthy or reliable. If a complete unblock isn't in question, may I please plead for a shortened length? A two week or month long absence to me is for me a good length. I still take time to take a cool off, and serve the penalty. I'm not a vandal, or someone who gets a kick out of being an edit warrior. I'm just someone who tends to get in over their head now and then. If you give me the chance, I won't let you down in the promise to be alot more civil and less combative. Rusted AutoParts 11:34 pm, 6 January 2014, last Monday (1 day ago) (UTC+0)

I'm right on the edge of turning off your talkpage for you. One more fatuous unblock request and I will. Please do not put up another unblock request for at least a month and then only when there is something new to say. CAT:RFU is severely backlogged and we can't waste resources coming back to this.

Alright, I won't make any more unblock requests, Spartaz, but I want to make clear I'm not asking for an unblock, I'm asking it to be shortened. I have to serve a penalty, that's a given, but six months? Rusted AutoParts 05:24, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

See, here's my problem, Spartaz. Kww, anyone reading right now. You come in, say no, than refuse to discuss further. You have yet to address my actual request: a shortened block. Now this time around, the reason for declining my request is because "I'm causing a backlog"? Why can't I get a straight answer? This is why I get upset: no one ever engages with me. I even start discussions on talk pages and WikiProjects that just get ignored, even when they address a concern on the article. By no means do I vandalize Misplaced Pages. And Kww, swarming in and blocking me immediately when I get started talking with editors about the issue, it concerns me you don't take time to look at what the issue was, and swiftly block me based on the notion you don't find me a good editor. I'll even not the other two times you blocked me, you handed these stiff, heavy handed indefinite blocks over what were frankly minor issues.

This to me is a bit unfair as you're assuming the worst and feel I'm just someone who needs to be ridden of without giving me an opportunity to explain or to prove to you I'm not always here to have an edit war.

I've been blocked a grand total of three times for edit wars: first on March 10, 2012. Second on June 16, 2013 and this one, January 5, 2013. Those are all very spaced apart, showing I'm not warring intentionally.

I request the shortening of the block on those grounds. The first block length was a day. Second was two weeks. Six months is a massive overstep as these are all very separate and the dates of each are spaced out by a year (1 and 2) and eight months (2 and 3). Please, Spartaz. Forgiveness and mercy is all I ask. Rusted AutoParts 05:46, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Nearly anyone watching this is aware that you have been warned and warned again. Looking only at the actual blocks is misleading: for every time you've been blocked, there are several times that you've participated in an edit-war that fizzled out before an admin got around to blocking anyone. Six months isn't that long, and the hope is that it might actually cause a change. The short ones don't seem to have.—Kww(talk) 13:21, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

That's what you alone feel. And it's a very unforgiving way of approaching things, Kww. Six months is a long time for something that was intended or ever meant to escalate into an edit war. As I said, it seems sometimes you don't stop to analyze the situation before handing out a very long block. Six months is long to me, as we've only just started the year. Those "edit wars that fizzled out" always ended before they came to a complete battle. Kww, all I'm saying is to see me not as someone you feel is a constant disruption. I'm not. Asking for a shortened sentence is accepting I still need time out. And if you give me the benefit of the doubt, I will change. I swear. Keep monitoring me or something, I can turn myself around. Rusted AutoParts 14:00, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

"...you alone ..."? Note that I haven't denied any of your unblock requests. Those are all other admins reaching the same conclusion that I have.—Kww(talk) 14:20, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

I use that term in the sense whenever you block me, you always assume I'm a bad editor who needs to be ridden of. And looking through your log of blocks you've given, it's not a stretch to feel that's what you think of anyone. A majority of the blocks you issue are "indefinite", "a year". As I've said here, and in other requests, I'm not a bad editor. I find myself losing my edge from time to time, something I am working on, and recently have seen some results. This is a plea to you. Please have leniency and shorten the block. I know what i did was wrong, and i've apologized for it. I'm not a bad editor, I'm not a vandalistic editor, I just need to know where to be assertive, and where not. The main article page is not that place. Rusted AutoParts 14:29, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Request reason:

As requested, I waited a month until requesting an unblock again. In my prior requests, I made it known how sorry I was for my conduct, a sentiment I still feel. I was immature, and in the time since I've been away, I sat myself down and re-read WP:3RR numerous times, so,I feel confident in saying that I am fully aware of the steps needed to take in order to avoid further incidents like the one I was blocked for. I've been away for a month, and if its alright, I'd like to be able to start editing again, so I can edit productively. Rusted AutoParts 3:50 pm, 1 February 2014, last Saturday (2 days ago) (UTC+0)

Okay, I'm calling it. You're unblocked, with the following provisos:

• You are indefinitely restricted to one revert of any editor in any 24 hour period, subject to the usual exceptions listed at WP:3RR. This restriction will be logged at WP:RESTRICT and can be appealed at WP:ANI six months from now.
• Your editing will be monitored by User:MichaelQSchmidt (and others, most likely). You are expected to follow his advice and recommendations, and to request assistance from him or another experienced editor in any circumstances where you feel you are likely to be drawn into a dispute.
• Any future instances of edit-warring, incivility or evidence of a battleground mentality will result in a reinstatement of the block, with no prior warning. Yunshui 雲‍水 10:37, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

RAP, this is NOT your first block for edit-warring, it's been chronic. Indeed, I'm surprised this is not indefinite. It's also not the first time that you have promised that you would never edit-war again. It's not a hiccup, it's a full-bore consistently problematic behaviour. In order to be unblocked, you would need to address the root behaviour, and lay out a plan: how will you ensure that you NEVER, EVER break even WP:1RR ever again - you do recognize that if unblocked, any appearance of breaking 1RR will lead to an indefinite block with no chance of unblocking, period. How will you stop yourself? How will you keep your "passion" in check? What steps are you going to take when involved in a disagreement? These are the things we need to know - because once again I must emphasize, any future breaking of 1RR will lead to instant, no warning, non-appealable indefinite block. So, think very carefully - do you have the strategy AND personal conviction at this time to do this? DP 11:05, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

I fel I do because I've been through some counselling for my personal problems, so I'm not agitated anymore. The moment I even see potential for an edit war, I will take what issue I have to the talk page to discuss it first (something I should've done in the first place). I will then debate the topic in question, and if people choose to not include it, then that's that, I go elsewhere on Misplaced Pages. The only instance I can think of involving WP:1RR is if anything vandalistic keeps getting added to an article and the vandal continuously reverts. No more fights over content I want to add. And yes, I've had what ill refer to as a "colourful" past, but I still have a future to work on myself. I'd say take my word for it, but I've said that before. All I can say is that I'm not going to squabble anymore in a combative manner. Rusted AutoParts 13:58, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Kww would be willing to agree to an unblock on the condition that you were mentored or observed by an experienced user - is there anyone you'd like me to approach in this regard? Yunshui 雲‍水 09:58, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

I could always rely on User:MichaelQSchmidt to help me understand things in the past. Rusted AutoParts 13:01, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

That's not the same as formal mentoring. DP 14:15, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you feel the need to be hostile towards me, Panda. I merely suggest MQS as he has provided advice and teachings in my past, as well as User:Jhenderson777. It would most likely be a conflict of interest, but if User:Kww wants me to have a mentor, perhaps the solution is to have him do it. He doesn't have to, but I'm sure with his navigation, I could be on the right page. Rusted AutoParts 00:47, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

I'm not sure how you can honestly believe I'm being hostile - perhaps you have a little too much us vs. them mentality here? DP 10:37, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, I just assumed that was your stance when reading your original comment on February 2. I apologize for that. Rusted AutoParts 14:16, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

I am inclined to support his request that his block length be shortened. Frustrated as some admins may be at apparent recidivism, blocks are not to be punitive. They are intended to educate and deter the continuation of present, disruptive behaviors. Certainly with his absence, such behavior has naturally ceased... and he now appears to be conciliatory and willing to engage in discussion of his actions. If RAP agrees to mentoring and close monitoring, the block length should be shortened.

To Rusted AutoParts

IF you sense or feel there is an edit war going an anywhere or anytime, bring it the attentions of neutral others. Do not involve yourself. You would be under watch by multiple admins and an extended block could be restored without a warning, and requests for lessening of restrictions might fall on deaf ears. Schmidt, 10:18, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

They have requested you as a mentor - are you accepting that role? DP 10:37, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Not as a "mentor" in title per se, but in deeds. I am willing to be one of those who watch over his edits and offer counsel and input. Many hands (eyes on target) make light work. Schmidt, 10:50, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

• When declining an earlier unblock request (above), I said that I might be willing to consider shortening it if Rusted AutoParts seemed to understand what the problem is. What he/she has written since then does seem to indicate more of an understanding, and a willingness to do better in future. I am happy to agree with shortening the block. The block has now lasted for a little more than a month, and I would not object to reducing it to time served. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:35, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Support unblock under Michael's "unofficial" guidance. Yunshui 雲‍水 13:59, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Support with condition that if RAP gets into another edit war, personal attack, or anything similar, that it leads to an indefinite block. Others wouldn't have had nearly this many chances (in my experience, though I could be wrong), so I feel this should be their last second chance. gsk 17:40, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Support - as someone who previously blocked this editor. He's seriously on his last chance, though - Alison 18:26, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Support but only with a WP:1RR restriction (to be logged at WP:RESTRICT) due to Michael's "unofficial" mentoring instead of formal. This is final, last, ultimate chance DP 10:15, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi, and thanks for your work on the English Misplaced Pages. Just a short note to point out that we don’t normally link:

• dates
• years
• commonly known geographical terms (including well-known country-names), and
• common terms you’d look up in a dictionary (unless significantly technical).

Thanks and my best wishes.
