Thanks for stopping by!

Here in Misplaced Pages, I go by "Winkelvi". I enjoy patrolling the ] page, looking for vandalism by IP addresses. As a ], I'm also often reviewing and then either accepting or rejecting pending changes. While I try to be accurate with the reverts I make and the subsequent warnings I leave on talk pages, I am only human and will make mistakes from time to time. '''If you're here because of an editing issue or a revert I've made to one or more of your edits and you feel I've made an error, please leave me a '']'' message on my ]''' If you want to talk about article edits, it's really best to do so at the article's talk page. If you do so, and your comments regard changes I've made there, please ping me.

When you leave a message on my talk page and a response from me is appropriate, I will reply to you here, not on your talk page. Having half a conversation on a talk page and going back and forth between pages is unnecessarily confusing and a pain in the ass.

If you're here to whine, complain, or express anger, please go elsewhere. Any whining, complaining, angry or trolling posts are subject to immediate deletion. -- <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">]</span> ● <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">] ]</span> 18:15, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

== Jason Lee (Actor) religion edit. ==

I appreciate the effort you make to keep things accurate, but not being able to accept "original research" goes both ways and can also prevent things from being as accurate and up-to-date as the world's de facto source for information should be. For example: There is zero evidence on the internet or anywhere else that Jason Lee is currently a member of the church of scientology nor is there any evidence that he has been a member in recent years. You are basing your decision to not accept the edit based on the lack of a press release stating a change in religion and that is an unreasonable expectation to have for anybody. If you don't want to accept my change to Episcopalian then I challenge the assertation that he's a scientologist on the same principles that were cited in your rejection of my edit and ask that you leave the "religion" part blank until a more definitive source can be cited.

If you have paid any attention to Scientology at all then you would realize that a public departure of any celebrity from Scientology would likely result in retaliation from the "church". Since Jason has a child with a previous partner (Beth Riesgraf) and that partner is an active scientologist then publicly departing could have jeopardized his relationship with that child. Similarly, it's not difficult to imagine that he has long standing friendships and professional relationships with active scientologists that would also suffer if the church declared him suppressive for leaving.

It's not always possible for everybody to leave with Leah Remini or Paul Haggis' "bang" but since wikipedia bears some responsibility for the perpetuation of the "Jason Lee is currently a Scientologist" narrative then it also bears the burden of proof.

Here is my attempt at providing some published context for my edit.

Scientology Celebrity Spiderweb 2012 (Jason included (look under 1970. everybody is categorized by birth year))
http://ocmb.xenu.nett/ocmb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=69963

Scientology Celebrity Spiderweb 2013 (Jason no longer listed)
http://ocmb.xenu.net/ocmb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=156867

References from scientology publications (this is obviously not gospel as Leah Remini only has completions listed into 2004 even though we know very well that she didn't leave until 2013).
http://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/j/jason-lee.html

3 episcopalian church photos via Jason's wife's public Instagram page (https://instagram.com/jessiegoesseaward/ shows photos of him and their family all over it which should confirm it's hers).

posted July 19, 2015: "I look forward to Sundays like I can't express. I am lucky enough to go to church at All Saints in Pasadena- a non-denominational church that works tirelessly as human rights advocates and equal rights petitioners. I learn more about what's happening in the world here than anywhere else.
I just listened to a sermon by Rev. Gary Hall on 'the False Self'. It moved more than I can say.
If you want to hear it, they have a podcast and an a YouTube channel.

You won't be able to confirm this one as valid because her facebook profile is private now, but it's a screen shot from Jason Lee's mother's page where she addresses the issue. Misplaced Pages is specifically called out as being innaccurate on the subject which is what motivated me to make the edit in the first place.

Not that it will make much difference in your day-to-day, but I've retired the "anti-filibuster" sanction that I placed on you in August 2018, so that no longer applies. The other sanctions are set to expire soon. {{pb}}Unrelated, but I remember in the previous site-ban discussion MONGO proposed some sort of reverse topic ban where you'd limit yourself to editing only 5 articles. That might be a starting point for an unblock...getting those articles to GA with no drama could be used as evidence to appeal for a less restrictive ban.

It's obvious you disagree, and you're more than welcome to disagree and to revert this message too, but just so we're entirely clear that ''was'' a specific administrative warning that I will block if you continue this any more, and frankly it doesn't matter if you think I'm "doing the right thing" because I'm not making this up, I'm going by the book and that's all there is to it. I'm not going to sit and argue with you if it reaches that point as we've discussed this with you quite enough and have been unable to get any sort of affirmative response. I'd rather you heed the warning and simply do what is expected of every editor on Misplaced Pages but as I've repeatedly warned you, I'm going to block you if you push the issue.

== Severity ==

Dear Winkelvi, I would ''really'' like you to continue to be an active and usefully contributing member of Misplaced Pages. My reading of the situation, is that to continue contributing to Misplaced Pages you will have to serious re-evaluate the format of your actions and interactions with others. You '''need''' to abide by the ] and ] policy, and you '''should''' try to demonstrate your understanding of the severity of situation. I would re-encourage responding with {{xt|"thank you"}}, in preference to what appears to be a behaviour speedily reverting those who take the time to offer assistance ().
''Please'' take this to heart this time and <u>act upon it</u>. Make the change, curtail the reverts (in Article and Talk space) and lets keep contributing! —] (]) 00:36, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

== Request for advice on whether to report potential edit warring ==

I would like to ask your advice on whether or not I should report Ring Cinema for edit warring, since his editing may not explicitly violate the 3RR, but as I understand it you have . The edits in question on his current edit warring revolve around two Michael Caine films, ] and ] Two days ago I added a sentence to the leads of both of these article noting the similarities of these films, and providing citations of reviews by Roger Ebert and Janet Maslin that explicitly mention the similarities between these films, as well as three published books that mention the similarities. Yesterday Ring Cinema repeatedly reverted these changes on the Deathtrap article. At that point, I attempted to start a discussion with him. Since then, he has reverted the change again. This is his third revert. His first revert was 16:25, 4 August 2015‎, and his last revert was 16:51, 5 August 2015‎. At 16:51, 5 August 2015, he also reverted the almost exact same sentence in the Sleuth article. So while it's two different articles, it is the exact same issue with the exact same editors in the two articles, and he is at 4 reverts of it in barely over 24 hours. This feels like edit warring if not a cut-and-dried violation of 3RR. I have opened a discussion of the content dispute on ], but do you think I should also go to ANI/3rr? ] (]) 20:31, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

:Report him if you think his actions are deserving of being reported, {{U|Mmyers1976}}. I have no opinion one way or the other. Yes, he and I have tangled previously, but I don't hold any animosity toward him and I'm certainly not looking for reasons to see him taken to a noticeboard. If you believe it's as cut and dried as you say, do what you think is appropriate.

::I asked because I believe it's not cut and dried, it's more of those ambiguous situations like he was warned about before, and also because of the open DRN discussion, I don't want to look like I'm forum-shopping. I counted and have 3 reverts on the Deathtrap article, and then I stopped and discussed. Even though he has reverted me again on that article, I have let it stand pending the DRN. I have not reverted at all on the Sleuth article, and I have let his revert stand pending the DRN, so I ''believe'' I'm clear of an edit warring boomerang charge. ] (]) 20:43, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

But y'all, realize that ] is also ], that is, ]--in other words, while the template may suggest it's all about three reverts, it's a noticeboard for edit warring, and that's a broader thing than just 3R violations. You might say that's more liberal, but it's also intended, I believe, to bring to admin attention the more persistent edit warriors who tend to work long-term, outside of the clear bright line of 3R. So if you're suspecting someone of such edit warring, and if, of course, you're not the only one reverting them, you may well report it--just write up a good report in which you lay out the case.<p>It may be (but this is possibly not of any interest to you) that the "punishment" is different. Clear 3R violations are frequently met with a short block to prevent 4R, 5R, etc.; long-term edit warring violations sometimes call for different matters, and it may be that the matter ends up on ANI for POV editing or whatever.

== Re:] ==

I'm not sure if you meant to link to ] or something else, but DENY is an essay about trolls and vandals; Joseph is neither of these things. DENY says in the opening sentence that it only applies to {{tq|true vandals (as distinguished from users who engage in ... edit warring ...)}}. ] says posts from ''banned'' users may be removed or struck; however, it does not say anything about editors evading temporary blocks. Per ], Joseph is still a member of the community, and thus his comments are still meaningful (even if he should not have left them). It is for this reason that I felt unstriking the comment and simply tagging the comment as a sock contribution was sufficient. ''']''' (] &#124; ]) 20:49, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

:Deny is invoked frequently in reference to socks. I've seen it used time and again in that manner. His comments as a sock are to be discarded, as he placed them during block evasion.

::Whoever is applying it that way is wrong. For one, DENY is not even a guideline or policy. Secondly, it has nothing to do with sock puppetry or the behavior that Joseph is currently blocked for. Comments from banned users are typically struck/removed because banned users are not welcome here and not considered members of the community, thus their comments are completely irrelevant. Joseph is not banned or even ''de facto'' banned; he's not even indeffed (yet). I'm not sure why striking his comment as if it's completely worthless is the preferred option, especially when there's no explanation for why the comment is struck unless you look in the page history, which could give off the impression that he struck the comment himself.

:::First of all, as you've already pointed out, WP:DENY is an essay, not policy. That in mind, there's no bright line here, nothing to be followed to the letter. DENY is used frequently with block-evasion, and rightly so. Also, keep in mind that Prasad made the comments while evading a block and socking under an IP. No, he's not indeffed or banned. But he did block evade, therefore, his comments are not to be considered. I could, rightfully, delete them outright. So could anyone, really. They are from a block-evading sock, and DENY does apply, even if it doesn't say so outright in the essay. Obviously we disagree about this, {{U|Chasewc91}}.

{{od}}You have a short memory. He does what he does to ] and to be ]. He's admitted to be intentionally disruptive (remember the 30-or-so edit-warring reverts with a promise to continue doing so and admitting he didn't give a crap?). At what point does such disruption get classified as vandalism? When they continue to not give a crap and just do whatever the hell they want and then dare you do something about it. Block evasion at an article he frequents and made on an identifiable IP is just more "I don't give a shit" disruption. Sorry you're too AGF-ish to see that, but -- I see it as clear as day. As far as him being out of my hair -- I don't want him to go away completely. I just want his childish behavior and attitudes to go away. He needs to grow up and realize Misplaced Pages isn't his personal playground. -- <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">]</span> ● <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">] ]</span> 04:00, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

Note

Not that it will make much difference in your day-to-day, but I've retired the "anti-filibuster" sanction that I placed on you in August 2018, so that no longer applies. The other sanctions are set to expire soon.

Unrelated, but I remember in the previous site-ban discussion MONGO proposed some sort of reverse topic ban where you'd limit yourself to editing only 5 articles. That might be a starting point for an unblock...getting those articles to GA with no drama could be used as evidence to appeal for a less restrictive ban. I dunno...maybe it's a bad idea, but it's a start. ~Awilley (talk) 19:10, 10 August 2019 (UTC)

Unblock request closed

You have likely seen this already, but I should probably notify you that I have closed your unblock request as unsuccessful. Please read the comments there carefully before any subsequent requests. Vanamonde (Talk) 19:23, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
