(From my talk page.) I can't speak to your being referred to WP:RFCU; that's outside my knowledge. As to your request, we've got certain procedures about CheckUser. For one, we don't like revealing IP addresses as a matter of privacy. We make an exception only in cases of egregious policy violations. Your request didn't cite such violations. If you can demonstrate such I'll naturally reconsider. Furthermore, the user in question has admitted that he and the IP are one in the same. In such open and shut cases a checkuser really isn't needed. ] ] 23:53, 8 May 2006 (UTC) | |||

==User:Frys104 and Socks== | |||
Hi Dijxtra, | |||
I appreciate the time you took with me in regards to the case of Frys104 and possible sockpuppetry. Although you did take time to review the case, I felt the situation was not moving along quickly enough (the vandalism and sockpuppetry started back in February and continued off and on until now), and eventually asked another admin. The case is now, as far as I can tell, closed, with the other admin deciding "looks like a clear sock and fair number malicious edits". User is now blocked. I thought I'd let you know so you didn't spend any additional time on a case that's now wrapped. Thanks.--] 09:21, 9 May 2006 (UTC) | |||

===Question about Hipi's sockpuppets=== | |||
I noticed last night he has been removing sockpuppet tags from some of the accounts he was charged with using. Is there any way these accounts could be permanently tagged and blocked? (Well, not sure if it really matters) Which ones are the usernames he was found to be using? Also, isn't ] an obvious <nowiki>{{usernameblock}}</nowiki> candidate? I have suspicions there are some new ones (throwaway accounts). As he has left me alone and did not reinstate his personal attacks on his userpage, I am not too bothered but I still find this quite disruptive.

:*] is blocked indefinetly | |||

::To be honest, he has been editing as an unsigned IP for a while. Aside a comment with a racist overtone and some , there is nothing new. There is another sock today called ] active only in the ] article, doing page blanking. As usual, a throwaway sockpuppet account, so no point on asking for a checkuser.

== ] - problem with Jacov == | |||
Hi, | |||
I see You are one of the admins. | |||
Well, I have the problem with user ], and since I saw You comunicating with him, I would kinfly ask You to bring him to senses. | |||
On page ] , I '''proved''' that only 7,000 people in Croatia on 2001 census declared them self as speakers of Serbo-Croatian, and since the same census showed that there are more than 200,000 Serbs in Croatia, I believe it's quite wrong to say that Serbs in Croatia speak serbo-croatian. Most of them reported to speak croatian and some of them speak serbian (that is proven fact, not my interpretation). | |||
Please, help bring this issue to an end. | |||
I see that you also list your self as speaker of serbo-croatian, but I hope that your will not put your personal political views before facts. | |||
Regards and thanks in advance! | |||

: See, the thing is: Luka is rather hard to talk to. He wrote some nice articles and he seems to be quite an inteligent guy, but he also seems to have problems with Misplaced Pages being founded on ]. And this kind of guys are hard to talk to. I will ask him to stop the edit warring, but I don't think that will influence him. What you can do is try to use Misplaced Pages policies against him. He seems to be eager to break some of them: I notice you both broke ] on Serbs of Croatia and I notice he did some ] (calling you an idiot). I will now: 1) ask him to stop removing references and attacking ad hominem, 2) report you both (it wouldn't be fair to report only him, right?) to for breaking ] (I will not block you myself since you were kind enough to talk to me, I'll leave to others to decide if you should be blocked) 3) start watching the article and protect it if you two do not stop edit warring. I know that's not what you wanted me to do, but me taking part in edit war on ] is enough edit waring for this week... --] 15:35, 10 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
:: Hi. Ante Here. You did the right thing, I do not object to what you did. And, I will not make any changes to articles until my blockin expires. | |||
:: But, I don't really understand how it is possible that I was being blocked, and JAcov, who laso broke ], who did some ] and who have the problem with Misplaced Pages being founded on ] is '''not''' blocked. That is really hard to understand. | |||
::: He is blocked. See here: . | |||
:: Other thing... since You said that Jacov has the problem with ], I believe that You, as an admin, don't have that problem, so I would kindly ask You to REV ] and change the article according to cited sources. I would do it myself, but I can't. | |||

== An appology == | |||
I owe you an appology. The ] project just got started and I'm the only admin taking part in this project. There fore, it's all up to me to decide. And I don't want to make any hasty decissions. That's how I do things. Slowly but thoroughly. And I sometimes do it a bit to thoroughly. I mean, I don't want to make wrong decissions. I needed to persuade myself that the guy is a sock, but I might be asking to much. Now I know that I should ask for fewer evidence and that I shouldn't hesitate to block so much. Therefore, I appologise to you for taking so much of your time and I promise I'll try to not to be such a pain in the ass in the future ;-) | |||
== Debate on the correct adjective for Kosovo == | |||
If it is of any comfort for you, this case has made me understand that I need another hand at this project. Therefore I'll now embark on a search for an admin who will be willing to help me and who will make sure we do not get in situations like this anymore. Sorry for the mess I caused... --] 13:40, 9 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
Hi! Based on your interest in the Balkans, you may be interested in the ] on whether we should be using Kosovo or Kosovar/Kosovan as the adjective for Kosovo. —] 15:15, 31 July 2007 (UTC) | |||
::Please don't apologise for being one of the few admins to actually look over the case (the case was originally skipped on every page I originally listed it). I think it's good you're thorough, so that a good user doesn't get accidentally blocked. In this case, however, a quick search thru any of the "three" users' histories would have shown many patterns of abuse (legal threats, page blankings, removals of warnings, impersonation, vandalism) to the same ten or so pages at nearly the same times, a clear sign of sockpuppetry. I'm just really glad the case has been resolved, at long last! However, this user is clearly persistant, and since there are at least three other questionable accounts that edited those pages, which I may monitor, this saga may yet not be over. | |||

Hi there. I've just been running the (usually wonderful) AIDbot, and had a problem with it. I ran it at approximately 22.30 UTC on 16 May.

Hi, (hope I'm doing this right) I noticed you re-referenced the dates of the Third Wave experiment as 1969. I went to Cubberley during all this, and the Third Wave experiment was in April, 1967. I wasn't in Jones class myself, but I was a photojournalist at the time. I've posted the references to my website www.cubberleycatamount.com with scans from the original articles from the original student paper at Cubberley. I tried to reference these in the wiki article, but I'm not sure if I've got them referenced correctly or not - maybe you can help me fix it up properly, assuming it looks OK to you. There have been a number of articles after this time which have gotten the timeframe wrong, but these dates are confirmed both in the Catamount and in "Hassling", by Sylvia Berry Williams. Jones had left Cubberley (fired and/or resigned - he was supposedly offered another job in the district, but declined it) by June of 1969. Jones did a "United Student Movement" simulation/experiment in December 1967, and an Apartheid "experiment" in 1968 (using the color of hair or eyes or something like that as the discriminator).

Hi Dijxtra, I saw your apology on the talk page. Don't feel bad about it because Zephram is very good at what he does. I've been taken in at least twice by him: once when he posted a sad, romantic story about a lost love of his and I wrote to thank him for sharing it (when, of course, it was made up, as was the persona); and a second time when I blocked one of his sockpuppets only to have him engage me in e-mail correspondence, complete with what he said was his real name, all of it very convincing, so I unblocked him, and it later transpired it was him after all. :-) ] <sup><font color="Purple">]</font></sup> 00:27, 17 May 2006 (UTC) | |||

: I do not plan reopening this discussion, but I'd like to state that Zephram didn't influence me all that much... If you read through my RfA, you'll see that I had some missunderstanding over sock puppet terminology with editors other than ]. So, he didn't have to persuade me. And he didn't persuade me, I decided to propose changes in policy on my own, because I thought that ] needs some fixing. And I still think that ] needs rephrasing and that the changes I proposed are excelent. And I'll propose those again, unchanged. The bit where I was wrong was: | |||
:# not contacting people on enwiki mailing list and on ] and informing them of my proposal (hence lack of consensus) | |||
:# not monitoring changes to ] (hence this sad, sad episode with Zephram rewriting the policy ''after'' I did the initial rewrite) | |||
: Both errors were result of my misconception that people who are interested in policy read the talk page of the policy and watch the policy page... Therefore, Zephram didn't manipulate me, I'm quite hard to manipulate (or at least I like to think that way), he just sneaked in unnoticed. I'm still quite sad that everybody seems to think that I was manipulated and that Zephram did a trick on me, but I'm affraid that my effort to clear that out would do much more harm than good (and further degrade my already dammaged reputation, instead of restoring it).

==Pantherarosa== | |||
Hi, this user has been making numerous personal attacks against me. The situation started with Pantherarosa making attacks on another user, to which they brought it to the attention of ]. Pantherarosa began attacking me when I asked him/her to not remove warnings from his/her talk page. However the admin who looked at the case pretty much tossed it out the window because he felt I wasn't nice enough when asking Pantherarosa to stop attacking users. The situation has continued to escalate, so I'd like another admin to take a look at it given the fact that the admin's conduct was inappropriate to the extent that I've brought the matter to WP:AN/I. The user has already created sockpuppets (one of which has been indef banned) and has made personal attacks on WP:AN/I as well. Given the persistance of this user and the number of blatant attacks after being warned, I ask that a stronger ban than what a minor personal attacker would receive, as I think it's fairly safe to assume Pantherarosa will continue if (s)he receives just a slap on the wrist. | |||

::: Yes, quite. I think that in some time we will need a dedicated task-force to quell the war... the situation on Balcans-related articles is just about to explode.

There are some rational users with which it is easy to collaborate (or at least not to hard) and I'm really happy to see that, but OTOH, there's quite a bunch of users which do not understand that if they do not collaborate with the other side, we're not going to prosper. If you do not take your "opponents" seriously and just revert them or flame them - you're not going to do anything. And nobody seems to understand that. They're just keep reverting each other, insulting each other, reporting each other to admins, getting blocked, engaging in sockpuppetry... but what this kind of users don't understand is that we're not moving. They have entrenched in their points of view, they refuse to discuss and just battle each other. The future as I see it is quite sinister. I'm afraid.

My attitude? Well, firstly, I disagree with the actual ''way'' by which Montenegro became independent. The Montenegrin political leadership that pushed for Montenegro's independence so heavily in the past few days is ''the same'' (read: '''same''') political leadership of Miloshevich's regime - the same that invaded Dubrovnik, fought over Yugoslav wars and the key element in the Yugoslav wars. Milo Djukanovich (once overseed the Western Front himself in Chetnik clothes) betrayed his "mentor" S. Miloshevich - and I dislike traitors even more. The basic concept of Milo and his Bloc lies in the fact that they have been saved from the Hague by betraying Belgrade in 1999. Milo continues to practise Miloshevich's tactics (rigging voting, propaganda, "extraordinary" means to complete an end) - and soon, Montenegro is about to become the most capitalistic state in the world (where money can buy anything - even lives; already you can pay your military service or '''any''' obligation to the state with funds). Although, I admire Milo's genius - the mere fact that he pushed/accepted a 55% majority - and the fact that the actual outcome of 55.5% on the referendum - showed that everything was planned/known already in advance. The fact remains that 90,000 voters of the Montenegrin diaspora were allowed to vote - and 300,000 of montenegrins in Serbia '''weren't'''. Aside from that, Milo's Miloshevich-style propaganda was/is greatly in practise in Montenegro. By cunning means, Milo crossed from the Political leadership to the Opposition - crushing the top of the former political leadership & by numerious political intrigues he won every "battle" without a single opponent - playing out the European Union, the Serbian element in Montenegro, the Albanian, Moslem & Croat minorities in Montenegro and most of all, Belgrade. | |||
==Unreferenced BLPs== | |||
Aside from this, I am glad that the Union broke - it was disfunctional and gradualy damaging (especially to Serbia). The referendum in Belgrade showed ''over 90%'' voters for '''independent Serbia'''. I think the main problem is that the Montenegrin political leadership is no longer in control over the union like it was throughout the 1990s. After Miloshevich's fall, Serbian politicians took over - and this was unbearable to Milo and his company. The recent Union between Serbia and Montenegro was once more led by Montenegrins - but the fear that the next President would probably be a Serbian - and not from Milo's bloc - was unbearable. Tell me, which state has a man that wants nothing but it's dissolution for 3 years? | |||

: Yeah, I went through the whole history. And, as you noted yourself: tehnicaly you where the one that broke the rule I set. So I blocked you. Did you deserve it? Where you so ill-behaved that I just had to block you? No, you didn't do anything terribly wrong. But the thing is, I set that (really useless and quite stupid, I understand now) rule. And I had to act on it to remain consistent. I fell into my own pitt, as our people would say. I set the rule to stop Luka from edit warring, and he outsmarted me, so you got blocked. But if I decided not to block you, that would mean I broke my own rule, which is not good. So I had to decide: either I will break my own rule and accomplish nothing (by not acting at all) or I will impose the block I promised and maybe make this edit war stop. So you got blocked. Remember, that doesn't mean I think you are a bad person. Just that I had to act and you were the first who didn't discuss... --] 16:33, 11 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

Replaceable fair use Image:Gornji_grad_medvescak_map.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Gornji_grad_medvescak_map.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 16:28, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Featured List of the Day Experiment
There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all WP:FL's in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 01:09, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Third Wave
Hi, (hope I'm doing this right) I noticed you re-referenced the dates of the Third Wave experiment as 1969. I went to Cubberley during all this, and the Third Wave experiment was in April, 1967. I wasn't in Jones class myself, but I was a photojournalist at the time. I've posted the references to my website www.cubberleycatamount.com with scans from the original articles from the original student paper at Cubberley. I tried to reference these in the wiki article, but I'm not sure if I've got them referenced correctly or not - maybe you can help me fix it up properly, assuming it looks OK to you. There have been a number of articles after this time which have gotten the timeframe wrong, but these dates are confirmed both in the Catamount and in "Hassling", by Sylvia Berry Williams. Jones had left Cubberley (fired and/or resigned - he was supposedly offered another job in the district, but declined it) by June of 1969. Jones did a "United Student Movement" simulation/experiment in December 1967, and an Apartheid "experiment" in 1968 (using the color of hair or eyes or something like that as the discriminator). I hope this is how I'm supposed to communicate one-on-one... if not, sorry(!) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Meadowvistan1984 (talk • contribs) 05:46, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Mayors of Zagreb
I found out you excluded Granić and several others from the Mayors of Zagreb category. I also don't think they should be considered real mayors, but I put them in the category because they were in the List of mayors of Zagreb. Could you delete them from that article to avoid additional confusion or set up a seperate list for mayor nominees who failed to become mayors? Thanks. Admiral Norton 20:23, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
- I removed them from the list and pointed to the Zagreb Crisis article which mentions all of those candidates for mayor. --Dijxtra 20:40, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
- OK thanks Admiral Norton 21:44, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Names of Zagreb neighborhoods
I came across some Zagreb city district articles and I noticed some items in neighborhood lists unknown to me, e.g. "Stjepan Radić" and "August Cesarec" in Gornji Grad - Medveščak. I grew up in that city district but I'm still unfamiliar with both of these names. Could you please tell me what do these names represent and why are they surrounded by quotes?

Image copyright problem with Image:20000 dinara.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:20000 dinara.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Misplaced Pages's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
The following images also have this problem:

Replaceable fair use Image:Tifa Sarajevo 2005.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Tifa Sarajevo 2005.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the media description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? mattbr 15:49, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Bregovic Redzic Bebek 2005.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Bregovic Redzic Bebek 2005.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Misplaced Pages's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions.
Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 14:44, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of File:Kralj Tomislav.jpg
A tag has been placed on File:Kralj Tomislav.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section I4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image with an unknown source or an unknown copyright status which has been tagged as such for more than 7 days, and it still lacks the necessary information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. hmwithτ 16:40, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
Articles for deletion nomination of List of largest empires
I have nominated List of largest empires, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of largest empires (4th nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. 3^0$0%0 1@!k (0#1®!%$ 13:55, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 9 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Sejo Sexon - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Suspension of admin privileges due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative privileges of users who have been inactive for one year, meaning administrators who have made neither any edits nor any logged actions in over one year. As a result of this discussion, your administrative privileges have been removed pending your return. If you wish to have these privileges reinstated, please post to the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:Island-town
A tag has been placed on Template:Island-town requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it must be substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{substituted}}</noinclude>).
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by visiting the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Colonies Chris (talk) 09:47, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
Notice of change
Hello. You are receiving this message because of a recent change to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that you will not longer be able to request restoration of the tools because of your prior inactivity. You have until December 30, 2012 to request restoration or else the policy will prevent you from doing so in the future; you would need to seek a new WP:RFA. Until December 30, you can file a request at WP:BN for review by the crats. Thank you. MBisanz 04:22, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Carlsberg Croatia
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Carlsberg Croatia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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 "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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
