== Melchizedek nonsense == == Arbitration ==
I have removed the Melchizedek nonsense from this page. This is an uninhabited sovereign territory of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and they haven't given it away to anyone. Furthermore, nobody from "Melchizedek" has ever set foot there, nor are they ever likely to, and hence they have no way of asserting their "claim". Indeed, the fact that they "claim" it is totally meaningless. They might as well "claim" the moon. --] 13:48, 31 October 2005 (UTC)


Dominion of Melchizedek and '''associated articles''', shall be semi-protected. '''If necessary, Johnski (talk • contribs • page moves • block user • block log), or any other editor believed by an administrator to be a sockpuppet or meatpuppet of Johnski, may be blocked indefinitely by any administrator'''. The article may be unprotected (and reprotected) at the discretion of any admin who deems it safe to do so. ] 13:02, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
:Hello Centauri, The only reason that most people know about Taongi is because of the lease that Melchizedek has over it, from Taongi's Paramount Chief. Melchizedek's claim to Taongi has been mentioned in several credible news sources, and is in the Wiki article about Melchizedek, a micronation. Micronations are one of the 500 most popular topics in Misplaced Pages. We don't know if any Melchizedekian has ever set foot on Taongi, and it really doesn't matter either way. You have been accused of being a sock-puppet of Gene Poole and as you both use "nonsense" so often that encourages me to believe the argument. Having a claim to the moon is a far fetched comparision. And a lease from a Iroijlaplpa is not meaningless. Sincerely, ] 18:48, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

:Centauri, despite what anyone says, I don't believe what's being said in terms of you being both people. I'd encourage you to continue to watch the pages regardless of the accusations Johnski or others come up with. As I've said, I'm going to take a more passive role and get back to editing some articles that I want to improve and/or create. That doesn't mean I won't be watching him though. ] 03:40, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

The paragraph that begins "A Wikipedian article about the ]..." cannot be placed into this article because it is a violation of the guidelines in ]. ] (] • ]) 22:16, 2 November 2005 (UTC)


Hello fellow Wikipedians,
The paragraph is also clearly not approved by the consensus of the editors on this article, as only one has attempted to insert it, but several have reverted. It has definitely not won consensus on the talk page. Consensus on the talk page is necessary when you insert something and it is reverted: the reversion indicates that consensus does not yet exist and you should discuss your change and obtain consensus on the talk page before inserting it again.


I have just modified {{plural:1|one external link|1 external links}} on ]. Please take a moment to review . If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit ] for additional information. I made the following changes:
Johnski, this edit warring has got to stop. The three revert rule is not a license to make three reverts per day. You are consistently making as many reverts as you possibly can so that you violate the spirit of the law while not violating the letter. That's unacceptable. I'm going to look into where I can report you for this.
*Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20110721041118/http://www.hss.energy.gov/HealthSafety/IHS/marshall/collection/data/ihp1d/122574e.pdf to https://www.hss.energy.gov/HealthSafety/IHS/marshall/collection/data/ihp1d/122574e.pdf


When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the ''checked'' parameter below to '''true''' or '''failed''' to let others know (documentation at {{tlx|Sourcecheck}}).
If you want to have any hope of exerting any influence over these articles, you had better listen up and start confining yourself to proposing changes on the talk page and waiting for consensus before editing articles. Otherwise you are going to be reverted by multiple editors as long as you are here and will ultimately find yourself blocked because of edit warring. You can and will be blocked for edit warring even if you have never technically violated the three revert rule.


{{sourcecheck|checked=false}}
I want to encourage you to read completely through ] and ] before proceeding. I also want to point you to the sentence in ] which states, "Neither a sockpuppet nor a brand-new, single-purpose account holder is a member of the Misplaced Pages community." As far as I can tell you are, so far, a single-purpose account holder here at Misplaced Pages. ] (] • ]) 22:25, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

:Mr. JDavidb et al: Melchizedek's claim to this Atoll has be covered by international media both in print and tele. It is worthy of mention. The text is from the DOM article that there is consensus for. If it can't be said that it is quoting from Misplaced Pages, just take the word Misplaced Pages out.] 06:09, 4 November 2005 (UTC)


== External links modified ==
:::KAJohnski, this claim has not been demonstrated to the consensus of editors of any article and any alleged documentation within Misplaced Pages only exists due to edit warring and not following the rules. Misplaced Pages is not a source. Sources used in Misplaced Pages can be a source, but of course they are open to examination and questioning. As mentioned ad infinitum, the alleged claims appear ludicrous to every Misplaced Pages editor so far other than all your sockpuppets that exist only to promote DOM. ] (]&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;]) 17:03, 4 November 2005 (UTC)


Hello fellow Wikipedians,
::Johnski I don't know where you get the idea that there is any consensus on either articles for your garbage, but there is not. I would warn you that this IS going to mediation and we will make it known about the various sockpuppets. If you revert, we will push to have your access to Misplaced Pages limited. I would take these threats very seriously. ] 09:05, 4 November 2005 (UTC)


I have just modified one external link on ]. Please take a moment to review . If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit ] for additional information. I made the following changes:
:::Mr. Davids: It appears you have never taken the time to read or study a subject for which you claim to be experts. The parts that are quoted come from the article about Melchizedek that you and your supporters have repeatedly reverted to, and Gene Poole, et al have edited to their liking, are those portions. The real reason, as I see it, is that you just don't like the subject, so you want to remove it from Misplaced Pages. To me, the subject is interesting, and famous enough like other subjects to be covered in all of its notorious aspects. Melchizedek claims Clipperton, but I don't see that that is worth including in the Clipperton article, because that claim doesn't rise to the fame of Taongi and Solkope, nor are there leases involved.] 19:01, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

::::Johnski, I never once claimed to be an expert on DOM. You are wrong, I have read some about DOM and I do honestly believe it is a fraud. I have no problem with their being articles on the issue on Misplaced Pages, but they must (as the rules state) have the sources to back them up. You have repeatedly made claims that did not have the sources or used bogus sources (such as the blog) to try to prove points. In addition, you have reverted pages without consensus, lied about having consensus, misrepresented the rules of Misplaced Pages to push your own agenda and so on. If you want to continue to sit on your high horse and scream foul, that's fine. However, myself and others are not going to allow you to hijack Misplaced Pages to further your own cause. That's not why Misplaced Pages is here. ] 19:20, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

] and related pages

There is an ongoing revert war with Johnski, who has reverted the DOM page 60+ times in the last two months. He has violated the 3RR rule numerous times. To justify his reverts, he claims that his version has consensus, that the version that is posted is bias. He also uses numerous sock puppets to revert this page as well as many others including ]. Johnski does not follow the rules of Misplaced Pages and frankly changes them in order to push his own agenda.

::This looks good. I don't think it's a good idea to list "Gene Poole" and "Centauri" as separate users, since there is a belief that these two people are the same user (e.g. ); however I have dealt with this editor before, so go ahead and add my name to the list. ] 16:41, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
