| Senate Foreign Relations Committee Meeting on Mike Pompeo Nomination The Senate Foreign Relations Committee held a meeting to vote on the president’s secretary of State nominee, current CIA Director Mike Pompeo. The Committee initially voted 11-10 to support the nomination. However, Senator Isakson’s (R-GA) vote was by proxy and by Senate rules could not be used to move a nomination to the floor. After some discussion, Senator Coons (D-DE), who opposed the nomination was recorded as voting no, voted present to allow the nomination to go forward by a vote of 10-9. | |||

| :The vote was 11-9. Senator Isakson's proxy vote did count. But per Senate rules, a proxy vote can't be THE vote that makes the difference. Once it was no longer the deciding vote, it counted. <small>BTW it's interesting to see all the amazement in Washington that a senator would do something nice for a fellow senator as Coons did. The nomination was going to be approved anyhow, but it would have required Isakson to jump on a plane and fly to Washington that night. And yet in today's partisan atmosphere, it seems to be astonishing to the PTB to see a courteous gesture like this to a member of the other party. </small> --] (]) 03:27, 24 April 2018 (UTC) | |||

| == Couple of comments == | |||
| Hi Bbb23 and thanks for taking the trouble to comment on . I thought I would give you the opportunity to review a couple of things you said there. Firstly, {{tq|I believe the only reason John objects to the reinstated material was because it cited ''The Daily Mirror''}} is puzzling; the material in question was sourced to the ], not the ''Mirror''. Secondly, the part {{tq|John decided a long time ago that citations to the Mirror are not permitted under any circumstances in a BLP article.}} is not just factually incorrect (you again name the wrong tabloid newspaper) but by making a statement about what you think my motivations are, I think you are getting towards ] territory. I would be grateful if you would restrict yourself in future to describing (accurately, if possible) my ''behaviour'' which you find objectionable, which is objectively observable, rather than your ideas about my ''motives'', which are perhaps more a matter for me. Additionally, while I have a fairly thick skin for personal insults, I'd ask you to review your choice of words . I'm sure, like all human beings, I have my ] moments, but I honestly don't think this was one of them. In any case, I've found that using language like this will often raise the temperature of a discussion without producing a corresponding increase in light or solubility. All the best, --] (]) 12:46, 28 April 2018 (UTC) | |||
| :Thanks for your {{tq|in retrospect I probably shouldn't have either}}, that was decent of you. If I may, I'd like to challenge you also on {{tq|John decided a long time ago that citations to the <s>Mirror</s> Daily Mail are not permitted under any circumstances in a BLP article. His rigid view has not been accepted by many editors.}} I certainly do not think my view on this is in any way exceptional; a ] concluded a year ago that {{tq|Consensus has determined that the Daily Mail (including its online version, dailymail.co.uk) is generally unreliable, and '''its use as a reference is to be generally prohibited''', especially when other more reliable sources exist. As a result, the Daily Mail should not be used for determining notability, '''nor should it be used as a source in articles'''.... There are multiple thousands of existing citations to the Daily Mail. '''Volunteers are encouraged to review them, and remove/replace them as appropriate.'''}} (my emphasis) We also have a core policy, WP:BLP, which states {{tq|This policy extends that principle, adding that contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced should be removed immediately and without discussion. This applies whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable, and whether it is in a biography or in some other article. '''Material should not be added to an article when the only sourcing is tabloid journalism.''' When material is both verifiable and noteworthy, it will have appeared in more reliable sources.}} (my emphasis) If I am out of line in reading these two very firm longstanding consensuses and concluding that was a terrible edit, even with ] arguably behind it, then I still do not see it. I am perfectly ready to accept critique on the way I delivered the message, but I stand utterly by my judgement that the edit was unacceptable. Thoughts? --] (]) 16:14, 28 April 2018 (UTC) | |||

Notice of noticeboard discussion
This discussion is closed.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:10, 29 December 2024 (UTC)The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrative action review regarding an action which you performed. The thread is I just followed the instructions on https://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Administrative_action_review and it listed the request for Administrator Action Review on that page. This is with regard to you blocking me over what I perceive as a content dispute, your refusal to discuss matters or comply with Misplaced Pages's principles even on request, your revocation of TPA, and disparaging statements / personal attacks (from my perspective) you made during content consensus discussion and on my talk page.. Thank you. Isonomia01 (talk) 16:46, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Bbb23: Hi, sorry to bother you. Could you clarify what "refactoring" were you referring to, and how that meets the requirements at WP:TPA:
continued abuse of their user talk page, or when the user has engaged in serious threats, accusations, or attempts at outing that must be prevented from re-occurring
? Thanks. Kovcszaln6 (talk) 12:30, 29 December 2024 (UTC)- IIRC, the trigger for revoking TPA was when the user altered a declined unblock request.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:41, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- I explained what occurred on my talk page under the "Refactoring" section, but basically I replied to Asilvering's rejection of the unblock request, but I couldn't use reply buttons while I was blocked so I didn't know replying directly to the rejection reason was not normally allowed.
Ask for clarification on deleted page of Geert Claessens
Dear Sir,
I noticed that the page Geert Claessens was deleted. I was still editing it in my sandbox and was in the process of adding external references to the text to underpin what was written. Kindly ask why it was already deleted. Thank you for your clarifications. Claessenskris (talk) 22:22, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher)The link is User:Claessenskris/sandbox . -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 22:28, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- I deleted it because it was blatantly promotional. Looks like you have a conflict of interest with the subject. What is your relationship to him?--Bbb23 (talk) 13:12, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Dear Sir, always ready to take advice on how to write this. I am his younger brother, but wanted clearly to add all the necessary references and have it as factual page. He (Geert) died 2 years ago and i wanted to get a digital trace of him and his carreer as a classical guitar player, no itention to have a promotional page. I also have newspaper articles on him, but they are dating from a while back and so they need to be scaned. How can i include them as a reference ? Thank you for your opinion and time. Kr, Kris. Claessenskris (talk) 16:17, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
- First, you need to declare your conflict of interest following the procedures in WP:COI. Second, the problem isn't your "intention" but the language you use in drafting a page for your brother; it must be neutral and encyclopedic. Many people who have no experience with Misplaced Pages have trouble drafting new articles that comply with our guidelines. Third, you would be better writing an article in draft space, not your sandbox, and using WP:AFC. You will then get feedback from experienced users. As far as citing newspaper articles, please ask about that and any other things I've mentioned at the WP:Teahouse. As an administrator, my primary job is to prevent disruption, even if unintentional, to Misplaced Pages, not to mentor new editors. Good luck.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:10, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Renewed edit warring
You blocked Rueben lys for edit warring in July 2024. He has now returned to Misplaced Pages and his only edit is to resume that edit war. Abhishek0831996 (talk) 05:32, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- That's a very long gap. If they revert again, let me know.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:27, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
CU request
Hi. Sorry, I'm not familiar with the procedures. Shouldn't this be considered a potential block evasion and warrant another CU request ? I'm also wondering if the main account has also been blocked or just the IP. Thanks. Psychloppos (talk) 16:10, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- The named account has not been blocked. I blocked an IP range. I reverted your edits to the report for several reasons. First, you repeated the range I'd already blocked. Second, you incorrectly added a new report or you attempted to edit an already-closed report. If you want to add a new report, you must follow the instructions at SPI to do so. Third, do not request a CU when you are reporting IPs; connecting a named account with IPs is a violation of privacy and will not be run. Finally, don't bother adding the single IP in a new report. One edit a few days ago is not worth bothering with.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:22, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, fine, as I said above I'm not familiar with these things. Thanks, Psychloppos (talk) 16:27, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar |
| Happy New Year, Bbb23! In 2024, other editors thanked you 1150 times using the thanks tool on the English Misplaced Pages. This made you the #8 most thanked Wikipedian in 2024. Congratulations and, well, thank you for all that you do for Misplaced Pages. Here's to 2025! Mz7 (talk) 19:32, 31 December 2024 (UTC) |
- Umm, I had no idea. I have notifications for Thanks turned off globally. I should also add that I'm surprised. I do appreciate your thanks, though, and a Happy New Year to you, too. Be safe tonight.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:43, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
- It only stops you from receiving thanks; it doesn't stop people from thanking you. But they won't know that you didn't see the thanks. See thanks log. --Redrose64 🦌 (talk) 01:27, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
- I know that. I just don't think of myself as an editor who would get thanked a lot. I do have one question: is there any way to look now and see what edit an editor thanked me for? I don't see any way to do that on the thank log. I'm just curious.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:32, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
- It's not in the thank log; it's only in the "in-tray" or "TV set" icon at the top (to the right of the bell icon). But that only shows the 25 most recent events that come within that icon; most will be thanks, but some will be other actions - such as when you WP:MENTION somebody. So for myself, the list shows 25 events in the last 6 days of which 13 are mentions and 12 are where somebody else thanked me. If I click on one of those 12, I can see which edit (or loggable action, such as a block, delete or protection) that I was being thanked for, but once they are pushed out of the 25 by more recent events, the information is no longer retrievable. So checking out 1150 thanks is a long way from being possible. --Redrose64 🦌 (talk) 02:31, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
- Heh, I wasn't going to check all 1150 entries, god help me, just a few out of curiosity, but it looks to me like even the recent thanks listed in the log don't show up when I click on the TV set icon; maybe that works only if you have thanks notifications turned on.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:38, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
