Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 20:47, 16 November 2014

Welcome to Jehochman's Talk Page Please feel free to put your feet on the coffee table, and speak candidly. Or for more better relaxation, stretch yourself luxuriously on the chaise longue in Bishzilla's Victorian parlour and mumble incoherently.

This page needs more maintenance tags. January 2014. Please don't slap orange-box maintenance tags on articles. Time is better spent fixing them. If you don't have time to fix a problem, please use the article talk page to leave comments. Thank you.

Request for closure.

There is a huge discussion that I initiated, WP:AN#General sanctions for matters pertaining to units of measurement in Britain, which needs to be closed. You're uninvolved, and seem to be familiar with such matters as these, as you closed the discussion on the WP:GS/GG sanctions. Would you care to digest that discussion and close it as appropriate? If not, perhaps you could suggest someone I could ask to close it? RGloucester — ☎ 20:40, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Irrational

I object to being labelled irrational. If you are able to formulate a conclusion that conforms to policy I suggest you do so. If you can't I suggest you undo your actions. I'm quite happy to report that as admin abuse. 3142 (talk) 06:59, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

ITN closure

This discussion shows no consensus for posting, yet you ignored consensus and posted it anyway. In my 10 years here, I have never seen an ITN item get posted this fast against consensus before. I really think you should revert yourself. Viriditas (talk) 07:09, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

Please keep the discussion in one place. I have a Watchlist. Jehochman 07:13, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

ITN closure

Regardless of how reasonable or not posting the midterm elections was, I believe you are seriously mistaken in saying that none of the oppose arguments were "based on policy or rational arguments" and find that mildly offensive. I respectfully request that you redact that statement. Bzweebl (talk • contribs) 04:01, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

You are misquoting what I said, and misunderstanding what I meant. The weight of the opposes was very light because most of them were not rational arguments. My comment about the opposes being irrational did not mean "each and every oppose is the ravings of a moonbat". No, what I said (more briefly) and what I meant was, "The opposes include a plurality of conclusory statements, positions not in line with our custom, and logical fallacies (e.g. not rational arguments). In total, they are not convincing." I am not changing anything because the discussion has been closed already, and it's time to move on. Next time I will be more specific, though there's not much one can do when people assume bad faith. Jehochman 12:01, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

I assume you don't mind

I bolded your support on the planet formation nom. μηδείς (talk) 02:49, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Why did you revert

A comment on Talk: Michael Milkin regarding whether Drexel pleaded guilty or entered an Alford plea? Djcheburashka (talk) 19:38, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

I don't remember doing that. It was a mis-click. Jehochman 19:44, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

Gotcha - thanks for the quick self-revert. Djcheburashka (talk) 00:47, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

Unseemly begging

Please consider making yourself a candidate for ArbCom this year. Please. John Carter (talk) 20:38, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you very much, but I can make all the same points from the peanut gallery. There's no need to run for the committee and stress out my haters. That, and I don't have enough time available to do the job properly. Jehochman 20:47, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
