Picture of the Time Being.

Use of cquote

You removed a usage of Cquote from the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows page and referred to the WP:MOS for more info. I can't find the reference you suggested. Can you explain more fully why Cquote wasn't proper in this case?Alan 17:00, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Notable inhabitants of Manchester, New Hampshire

I've put the question about criteria for the list to the discussion page of the Manchester article, precisely because of the issues you raise. (Which may not lead to much; I know I rarely check the talk page.) If you want to put Josh Logan back for now, I won't argue. If we put in a fork, which is a good idea, someone will still want to put in two or three of the most notable people, and the whole issue will come up again. (And I'll bet you Adam Sandler will be the first back on!) --Ken Gallager 17:46, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

"A war to arise from tension over racial relations between blacks and whites" and "a war to arise from racial tensions between blacks and whites" are not the same thing.

Decline reason: 4chanpwr is clearly a sockpuppet of this account. You have now been blocked indefinitely for your actions. — Yamla 16:34, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

IP address redacted for privacy concerns. I edit from behind a company proxy. Unblocking admin: If you need the IP address please contact me via e-mail. Thanks. —Malber (talk • contribs) 15:59, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I can see the relations between the accounts. The name 4chanpwr, combined with the 4chan meme's I've noticed in your recent edits. Care you explain this? --Deskana (talk) 16:39, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

4chan meme is posting pictures with crude captions. What edits of mine demonstrate this? —Malber (talk • contribs) 16:43, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

"Pool's closed" is a well known 4chan meme --Deskana (talk) 16:50, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Malber, could you explain why browsers show the title of this page as a Harry Potter 7 spoiler? WjBscribe 16:52, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Well given User:Malber/tit and User:Malber/talktable it seems you have quite an interest in spoiling Harry Potter, seems more than a coincidence that an account that set out with that purpose happens to share an IP with you. WjBscribe 16:54, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I've blocked you for one month. The ties between the accounts were obvious, especially given that you've shared an IP with the other account. You're obviously being abusive, here. --Deskana (talk) 17:05, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Endorse block

I light of the evidence linking you to User:4chanpwr, in particular:

1. The fact that you share an IP address
2. Your introduction of a Harry Potter spoiler into you talkpage (which I regard as disruptive in itself)
3. Your use of a 4chan meme in edit summaries relating to Harry Potter spoilers

I fully support the block of your account 1 month for disruption. Misplaced Pages operates on the basis of mutual respect for other members of it community - you have deliberate set out to spoil for many people a recent and popular novel targeting pages you knew many Wikipedians would visit. Your sole purpose appears to have been to upset other members of the community. I find your actions utterly disgraceful. I hope should you return to editing following this block, there will be no repeat of such an incident. WjBscribe 17:09, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Do not be abusive on your talk page, or in your edit summaries, or I will protect this page to prevent such abuse. --Deskana (talk) 17:15, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

And in doing so you would be abusively violating your admin privileges. Something I see you've been accused of in the past. —Malber (talk • contribs) 17:16, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I have extended your block to 2 months in light of your hostile accusations and personal attacks. I suggest you adopt a more conciliatory tone. WjBscribe 17:27, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Which by code you're asking me to kiss your ass. Your extension of the block is abusively punitive. —Malber (talk • contribs) 17:30, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

No, its preventative - you have yet to say that you intend to cease your disruptive behaviour in future and have just continued in being abusive. Now I strongly suggest you stop digging yourself any deeper. WjBscribe 17:33, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Preventative of what, hurting your feelings? A 24-48 hour block is preventative. A 2 month block is punitive. Okay, seems you're not getting it: blocking someone you're in a direct dispute with is a violation of the blocking policy. Have you read it? —Malber (talk • contribs) 17:36, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
