Vandalism pt 15

Here's the 15th iteration of Serge's personal WP:AIV. Let me know if you like me to look into any instances that you feel may require warnings, blocks, page protections, or just general intervention. Thanks! Sergecross73 msg me 15:48, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

  • ESports probably could use PC or SP. Lot of minor drive by vandalism as well as repeated anon edits changing eSports to Esports without any discussion, which has been settled through numerous discussions already. -- ferret (talk) 23:22, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

Hello

I noticed you are working on improving the nu metal article. Do you want to also help me improve the Results May Vary article. I'm very interested in Limp Bizkit's Results May Vary album. Statik N (talk) 00:37, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

I can't say I'm much of a fan, though I do enjoy "Underneath the Gun" at least. I can try to look it over and try to help a bit though... Sergecross73 msg me 00:47, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Googlecentricism ???

Hello there, I would appreciate some feedback as to how to start a chat or something more on my proposed "Googlecentricism". Can you give me any suggestions? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lemon900 (talkcontribs) 16:15, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Well, it depends. Let's start with a question. This "Googlecentricism". Where does it come from? Is it an idea you've created yourself. Sergecross73 msg me 16:42, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

SEEPZ

Dear Serge,

My name is Manoj. I fixed SEEPZ page again today, I was in-charge of SEEPZ (running that operations for over 3 years). Noone knows SEEPZ better than I do.

Today ~ I did some research and saw, you are the admin. Need to speak to me? I am in the US and my number is 414-949-9384 or send me your number and I'll call you. This time I even put a hyperlink to my profile. These days, I am trying to patch up with Boeing, Airbus & Apple type companies for my most recent innovations and I'm about to apply for US Patents for them too. Follow me on Twitter (https://twitter.com/iGrowCash) connect with me on LinkedIn (www.linkedin.com/in/manojtewari).

Anything I can do for you, all you need to do is ask.

Thanks for your time and have a wonderful day!

Hi Manoj. Unfortunately, verification of the information is only half the issue here. The other main issue here is that Misplaced Pages is not a means of self-promotion or social media. (See WP:PROMOTION and WP:SOCIALMEDIA.) Basically, Misplaced Pages is not a means to "get the word out about you". There's plenty of other ways to do this on internet these days (like LinkedIn or Twitter) and you seem to be a pretty tech-savy guy, so I'm sure you can find another means of promoting yourself. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 22:30, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

SEEPZ

Thanks for responding back.....I read your comments.

I changed many other things and you did not accept those changes. I was in-charge of SEEPZ, I know it better than anyone else. There are many mistakes in your page.

I was instrumental in creating the new standard operating procedures. Hence, I wrote what I wrote.

Listen, if it makes sense to you. The association of all the units can email you a write up. if it has a para on who created the SOP's, would that be okay?

Let me know.

ManojManojtewari (talk) 00:02, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

If you want to fix factual errors, feel free to propose changes, additions, and sources to back it up, then you're free to propose them on the talk page. However:
  1. Misplaced Pages is supposed to be written according to what third parties say on a subject. You are closely tied to the subject, so you have a Conflict of interest when it comes to writing about the subject.
  2. You are not to be writing about yourself on the page. You are clearly writing about yourself in a promotional manner.
In short, the type of sources to be used should be the type of things you'd see written by a newspaper, magazine, or well established website. Yahoo News, not a random WordPress Blog. Sergecross73 msg me 01:00, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

Internet Browser (Nintendo 3DS)

For your attention, I have reverted your redirect in Special:Diff/742002245. 80.221.159.67 (talk) 01:52, 1 October 2016 (UTC)

...Did you have any objections beyond it "breaking redirects"...? Sergecross73 msg me 23:24, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

I have not been vandalising, I've been falsely accused by Dissident93.

Hi there, I see that I have been tagged for "Vandalism" regarding Sega articles by Dissident93? I find that disrespectful and offensive with my edits. All I have been doing is that, I have been updating the company templates with all the Sega subsidiaries and divisions so that they all have the same company templates. For example, the template used for Atlus and Relic Entertainment were drastically different, so, I decided to provide the same template format for consistency purposes.

Alongside that, I have added logo's for Sega franchises such as Jet Set Radio and Panzer Dragoon as they were lacking logo's. Plus, I have updated key Sega pages with their Intellectual Property acquisition of the defunct Technosoft. These are edits that, with citations (in which I clearly place), are allowed.

I do not understand as to what Dissident93 is trying to gain out of falsely accusing me. Iftekharahmed96 (talk) 22:10, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

  • I did not accuse you of vandalism, I simply put that there because it's a catch-all place to post things that should be looked at by an admin. The same articles you edit are the ones that were continuously edited by a ban evading user in the past (pretty much the only person who had edited those pages in the past year or so was him), so I thought it was something that should be looked at because the user (Triple-DDD) had created multiple sock pocket accounts to evade his original ban. It's just suspicious that the only game articles you edit are the same ones he focused on too, that's all. In your defense, you haven't done anything worth being banned for. ~ Dissident93 23:48, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
  • That's still an accusation based on an assumption. This is a disrespect to my contributions and has made me very upset. Making accusations results in distrust and breaks the community nature of Misplaced Pages. I have a life to live and a job to work for in the real world, I don't live my life on Misplaced Pages. why would I waste my time making duplicate sock puppet accounts? I have never heard of the user (Triple-DDD). You should have spoke to me about this first before going to an admin. As mentioned on your wall page, I demand an apology for this false accusation! Dissident93. Iftekharahmed96 (talk) 08:51, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
  • Dissident did nothing wrong, he merely asked me to look into it. Not exactly sure why you'd be so offended for someone to say you might be someone you've never even heard of. A simple "I'm not him" would suffice usually... Sergecross73 msg me 10:17, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
  • The user created multiple accounts over the span of the past year or two and edited the same exact Sega articles you have, so I don't know how you can blame me for being slightly suspicious. The way you're reacting is also not helping any. If you are not him, then you're fine because like I've said, you've done nothing wrong (outside of potential sockpuppeting, which requires more than just suspicious to take action against). ~ Dissident93 18:27, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

That doesn't change the fact that I am still offended by the accusation. Being offended is a subjective state of mind and not an objective one. Dissident93 should have spoke to me about this concern before going to you directly. A simple "no" wouldn't have sufficed as I would have inevitably been probed and accused even further. I understand that, as a moderator, it's your job to seek out any users who are maliciously damaging or manipulating Misplaced Pages entries for their bias, or, are just generally going against Misplaced Pages's rule. I understand and respect that. But fact of the matter is, I'm an emotionally driven individual, therefore, I take accusations like this personally. I still expect an apology from Dissident93 Iftekharahmed96 (talk) 18:23, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

  • Thanks for the insight, but what he did was neither wrong of him to do, nor something he needs to apologize for. Remove yourself from the situation and think about the situation in general. Lets say that you were Tripple ddd, trying to get around his block. Do you think he'd just come out and say "Oh yeah, its me, you caught me! I'll stop now, don't worry.". No, of course not, which is why a direct confrontation doesn't really accomplish much. Guilty or innocent, the response will be the same. That's why its not necessary for editors to discuss said concerns with people first. They either go to WP:SPI to investigate it, or go to an Admin who has blocked the person in the past, as Dissident did.
  • I can see where Dissident is coming from. You're a new account created around the time that Tripple was recent blocked again, and you edit a lot of the same topics. I just haven't seen anything that is literally the same edits that Tripple has made, so I haven't taken action yet. Wanted to look into it further, and see if there were any other observations from others. Sergecross73 msg me 18:49, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Sanic Ball

I want to create a page about the Sonic The Hedgehog parody game Sanic Ball. However, I'm not sure how to create charts that show when the game was released, who published it, etc.... I'm not sure if it's even is good enough material for a Misplaced Pages article. Can you help me? ~ TheJoebro64 —Preceding undated comment added 22:49, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

I will help, but first, we need to make sure that it meets Misplaced Pages's standard for having an article - the WP:GNG. The short version - you need multiple third party sources covering it in significant detail. Usually 4-5 is enough to keep people from deleting it. WP:VG/S is a good place to see which sources are commonly accepted or rejected as usable. Sergecross73 msg me 23:23, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
The only source that has actually covered it is Metacritic, and there are only user reviews there... I guess not many good sources wrote anything about it (there was a pretty hilarious PewDiePie video on it, though). — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheJoebro64 (talkcontribs) 23:41, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
Technically, everything is supposed to be written according to what sources say, so if we don't have any sources, we can't write a legit article. It'd probably be better to turn your attention elsewhere. I'll help you in general if you want it though. Sergecross73 msg me 23:51, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

The Kyoko Kirigiri article got recreated

So, someone made an article on the Danganronpa character Kyoko Kirigiri again, just two days after the old one's AfD ended with deletion. What's the best way to handle this?--IDV 12:11, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

I WP:G4'd it, and gave the editor a final warning that if they recreate any more AFD-deleted articles, or create any more unsourced articles, they're going to receive a block. Let me know if you notice him doing either. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 12:40, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
Thank you. I didn't see the original version of the article, so I wasn't sure if it was similar enough for G4 to apply.--IDV 12:41, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
They were exact duplicates, but it was similar and suffered from the same problems cited in the AFD - entirely regurgitated plot summary of the Danganronpa media she's been in, without a single source present. Sergecross73 msg me 12:45, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
