Checkuser and sockpuppetry
Invincibles issues
Other stuff
HAGGER
The pagemove Hagger/Grawp vandal that has been vandalising wikipedia and other wikis is also being disruptive at my sites Palaeos and EvoWiki can you (or some one else who is a checkuser) please use checkuser on the hagger usernames on wikipedia and tell me what their ip addresses are so i can block those ip addresses at Palaeos (and get someone else to block these usernames on EvoWiki since I don’t have administrator privileges there.--Fang 23 (talk) 14:39, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- I could but I'm worried about handing out IP addresses. What do the other checkusers think? Blnguyen (bananabucket) 03:20, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
I don’t know what other check users think because I haven’t asked them but however, CaribDigita has suggested here that we can slow down or get rid of the hagger/grawp vandal by notifying the people at godaddy.com by giving them an email at abuse@godaddy.com. Do you think that is a good idea?--Fang 23 (talk) 22:24, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
- There's a stack of his IPs here. . Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:16, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Proposed decision
Just wanted to remind you (or in case you didn't see it yet, to inform you) that the Tango case has a 9.1 principle proposed by Kirill. Would request your vote on it, as well as on principle 7, remedy 2 and Fof 3. Please also note that FloNight (and now) Jpgordan are reconsidering their votes on the remedies after checking the talk page - it may be eye-opening. Ncmvocalist (talk) 03:14, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Noted thanks, Blnguyen (bananabucket) 06:29, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Please also note that FloNight and Jpgordan have now changed their votes on the remedies after checking the talk page - the discussion there is very eye-opening. Ncmvocalist (talk) 03:23, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
- Noted. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:54, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- I think the case is being dragged out longer than it needs to be, particularly because it is so straightforward. Would therefore request your votes, preferrably sooner. Ncmvocalist (talk) 18:33, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Dreamafter
Do you believe the rubbish about another person in his family? And what happens to him? ṜέđṃάяķvюĨїήīṣŢ § 06:08, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Well, you've made a convincing case, and I doubt that the guy isn't a sock. However, I'd rather abstain from passing any further judgment (I've noted that the excat IP is the same and those two are the only ones on it) because I did accuse Dreamy of pointstacking on WP:MHCON because he was writing 2k long articles and rating them all as B - he wrote about 15-20 2k long articles in one month, rated them all B and collected about 95 points. So I'd rather not drop a hammer on him lest it look like a vengeance block. But I don't think the block would make any difference on Dreamafter except to stop him from contributing and he hasn't socked since then. But I'm sure it will be brought up by someone whenever Dreamafter makes his next RfA or MILHIST coord run. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 06:29, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Got some more for you to check. User:Foxyloves and User:Kittyloves, seems quite odd, especially since Dreamafter welcomed these two, and it is one of a few welcomes he has made. Also, the names are quite similar, and they know an awful lot (Foxyloves asks about how to use AWB in his 5th edit). Just let me know. Cheers, ṜέđṃάяķvюĨїήīṣŢ Review Me! 16:52, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
- Foxy has only made user talk chats, so there is no abuse to warrant a check. Kitty has made a few edits but there are no articles where there has been double dipping. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:54, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't have any bananas but I was wondering, with regards to Misplaced Pages:Suspected sock puppets/Dreamafter, do you mean that User:CD-MD is still active? Woody (talk) 14:28, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Ethnic crime in Australia
There is no reason for the list at Lebanese Australian to have a section on criminals. DS (talk) 00:04, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
- Is this based on any general policy or because it is considered inappropriate? Basically all other articles have a list of notable people, for whatever reason that they are notable. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:54, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Userpage
I saw this user's userpage and it gave me a chuckle. But then I got to thinking, is that sort of use of that space allowed? — NRen2k5, 00:10, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh wow, his contributions are even funnier. Is this guy for real? Gonna have to keep an eye on him. Oh, I assume his intentions are good (;))... it's just that his POV is hopelessly narrow and twisted. — NRen2k5, 01:04, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
- His userpage defnitely violates WP:BLP with the attacks on current pollies. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:52, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Rahul Gandhi
Do you really think so many fact tags are necessary? None of those are particularly controversial facts.. --Relata refero (disp.) 06:30, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
- Well it doesn't hurt to remind ourselves to improve the article I think. Sometimes I self-cn to remind myself to keep everything under control, even when it's pretty routine. Jack Marsh is an example. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 08:00, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
Falun Gong articles
I would like to seek your advice on a problem I'm having with a fellow editor re the abovementioned articles. I just cannot seem to get through to him - we have had words before, and he has now returned from wiki-break with a different approach: he has covered himself with a veneer of politeness, yet is just as opinionated and dug-in, and bent on turning these Falun Gong related articles into soapboxes for Falun Gong.
The current battleground is Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident, (rewritten over a period of months as a collaboration between asdfg12345 and myself, and gaining good article status in October) has been overrun by this particular disciple of Falun Gong who has admitted their political motivation. The culprit, Dilip Rajeev (who edits few, if any, non-Falun Gong articles and has a history of edit wars), stated to myself on the article talk page, "The reason we cant used propaganda from the CCP controlled press is that it is a long known and a well documented fact(by no means my personal opinion) that the CCP controlled press has been using the weirdest and the most slanderous propaganda against Falun Gong for the sole purpose of incitement of hatred."
He is completely unable to accept that anything the Chinese authorities says could be worthy of citation in a wikipedia article, whilst claims, assertions and allegations of Falun Gong and other advocacy groups', however marginal and insignificant, are totally legitimate and indeed necessary. He says We are obliged to report here what Human Rights Organizations such as the Amnesty have said on the issue - whether you like it or not. He has been forcing his way in editing on the above article, digging in trenches. He has also sought other significant non-neutral POV changes to the series of articles - such as putting ironic quotation marks around words he feels do not reflect the FG position; unilaterally renaming Reports of organ harvesting from live Falun Gong practitioners in China → Falun Gong and live organ harvesting, and proposing to rename Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident → Tiananmen Square "self-immolation" incident.
I strongly suspect his next battleground will be Persecution of Falun Gong, which surprisingly been largely stable for over a month now. In addition, he has been harrassing me and accusing me or removing comments not pertinent to a given article as "covering-up". In addition, he has just accused me of sockpuppetry.
I've lodged renaming request, requested a pre-emptive page protection, but am seemingly at wit's end, as he is completely stressing me out. I don't want to bow out of editing the FG articles to give him free rein. Ohconfucius (talk) 03:33, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, I might take a while, I'm a bit busy. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 03:54, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Sir,
I wish to point out that I have not made any such reverts lately. I had discussed , at length, every change I made and have always asked other editors to point out if they see any concern with any particular edit of mine. My recent changes have been very positively commended upon by other editors. The reverts I did was mainly in response to user:EgraS who kept reverting my changes, while not even bothering to give an edit summmary. I stopped rolling back his reverts, after two reverts, for the sake of avoiding an edit war, despite him not even bothering to give a reason( or even an edit summary for that matter) for his reverts. It was another well established user who restored the revert of user:EgraS, using TW, to the version of the page after my edits, pointing out to EgraS that "There is absolutely no need for a large scale revert. I'm resisting this time because it is such an egregious case. The edit was mostly just deleting a huge amount of content. There's no justification for that at all.".
If you feel, in any particular case that my edits were against wikipedia policies or that I have reverted against majority opinion, kindly point out and I'll be careful not to make a similar mistake again. I am also requesting Oconfucius to please point out using "diffs" any edit of mine that he would characterize as "disruptive".
In response to certain allegations raised above against me by User:Ohconfucius , please allow me to clarify:
- The recent changes have done are here. The quality (or lack of thereof) of my edits may please be judged after reviewing my edits and the pertinent discussion on the talk pages. The content I have added, in most part, are from sources of The Highest Repute such as The Amnesty International, Kilgour-Matas Reports, HRW, Human Rights Reports submitted at the UN, etc. and very often in blockquotes. The changes were positively commended on by other editors.
- The change of title ,from the vague "Falun Gong and live organ harvesting" to the much more objective Reports of organ harvesting from live Falun Gong practitioners in China, was done on May 3rd after I mentioned it first on April 21st and requesting on May 1st that if there is any disagreement on the new title, it may please be pointed out. The majority of users, you may verify from talk page discussions, consider the change of title to be a good one.
- I have never made any personal "accusations" against Oconfucius - while on the other had the user has been repeatedly and baselessly accusing me of a wide range of "violations" from wp:soap, wp:de, wp:attack, wp:npov etc. while refusing to point out, despite my repeated requests, which particular edit of mine he has problems with. I am still requesting that he may please point out which particular edit of mine he'd characterize as above using diffs. Also requesting that he may please not pull out statements I made as part of talk pages discussions and put them out of context as he has done above.
- The checkuser request I made to compare IPs of EgraS and Oconfucius was only because I was very much surprised by certain edits where EgraS was referring to Onconfucis statements as if it were his own and EgraS's response to a request for explanation of removal of content by Oconfucius as if the question were directed at him. Also the uncanny word-for-word resemblance in certain talk page statements made by the two users. For instance, please see these edits. To be honest, I still find it hard to accept such similarities could occur by mere coincidence and the users are completely unrelated.
- I also wish to bring this case to the attention of the Arbitration committee, because Oconfucius has been blaming me for all kinds of violations for a while and if there be fault on my part the arbitration committee may point it out and I will make sure not to repeat those mistakes and if such allegations are baseless the above user may please be requested to not do so since doing so it makes it much harder then to focus objectively on the edits .
Sincerely, Dilip rajeev (talk) 12:17, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Well, obviously you can't revert because the page was locked. I'm not concerned with or haven't looked at other things like CU stunts or the like. I could check the data again I guess, but if similar edits are the only thing, then one could simply imitate another person and get them blocked. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:16, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Modification of section on Origins and History in Carnatic music No oppositions todate
The first three paragraphs (from 'Like all art forms' to 'relevant to Carnatic music today')is based on prehistoric information and may not be of help to a reader. Therefore it was proposed to replace them with following short paragraph that was posted on April 20th. Only comment received to date is that it is some what short needs improvement in English. I would like to start as proposed. Over time it may be modified and expanded by inputs. Therefore please replace the first 3 paragraphs 'Origins and History' section with:
Carnatic music has a long history. Some aspects of the beginning of Carnatic music was influenced by Dravidian, Aryan and possibly Persian musics existed before 15th Century C.E. Vedas also played a role in the development of Carnatic music just like it has influenced all aspects of Indian culture.

Rfb participation thanks
Hello, my friend.
Another ignorance language question if I may. How do you say "thank you, my friend"?
Since I am ignorant of both Vietnamese AND Monkeyspeak, I am forced to thank you in English. As I am certain you know by now, after bureaucratic discussion, the bureaucrats decided that there was sufficient significant and varied opposition to my candidacy, and thus no consensus to promote. Although personally disappointed, I both understand and respect their decision, especially in light of historical conservatism the project has had when selecting its bureaucrats. At this point, I have to thank YOU for all the work you do for DYK's, assessments, and, of course, the thankless job of serving on ArbCom. If anything, I owe you more for that, than for your support (which is of course, extremely appreciated). Please do not be a stranger, and have the bright yellow primate drop by my userpage more often! Thanks again. -- Avi (talk) 19:19, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Ian Thorpe
Hello Blnguyen, I'm Tostof from the French wikipedia. I have just finished the translation of Ian Thorpe but I have three requests for you to complete it.
- First, do you have a reference for this sentence in the chapter Early years : « A talented batsman, he once topped the season's batting averages ahead of former Australian captain Bob Simpson. »
- The "DYK" ref #9 has it. Also the refs 10 and 11 from the book have this as well. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:14, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Then, do you have any information about his income throughout his career (in advertising for example, or bonus after olympic winning)
- I can't remember exactly where, but from the top of my head, it was around 3-5 million USD per year I think, according to the sources, which surprised me. I don't remember what the official Australian Olympic Committee or Government of Australia bonus is, or if it still exists, but it was defnitely < 100,000. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:14, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Lastly, how many national title does Thorpe win?
- From counting up in the article, I believe 400/200 in 1998, 100 in 1999, 400/200 in 2000, 100/200/400/800 in 2001, 100/200/400 in 2002, 100/200/400 in 2003, 100/200 in 2004, 100/200 in 2006. I believe that gives 19 individual long course national titles. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:14, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

- Well it seems he has just linked to the front page of a website without going to a specific profile, which sets off a red alarm for me. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:16, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
RE: Saggers
Honestly? I don't think it would make GA with such a gap in his personal life, unfortunately. I might trawl through the times digital archive (got access at Uni) for the invincibles tour and see what they say about him. Anything else you want me to look for while I'm there? Got lectures this morning so will leave that time for you to reply. SGGH 07:46, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, at least with me I don't care. Murali Kartik is GA and so are a whole pile of other things. I don't think it's that important at all. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:16, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
help needed
A vicious debate has emerged on Talk:Chilean Australian between myself and TeePee - both positions are presented and the arguments are vigorously debated, although I am afraid it has turned out vicious and tendentious. Given your contribution to similar ethnic group articles in Australia and your standing as an arbitrator, I would value your moderating contribution to this debate. Thanks
- Ok, looking. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:16, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
by the way, toi cung biet noi tieng Viet voi trinh do trung binh. Anh/Chi hoc tieng viet o dau? Kransky (talk) 10:09, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Em là người dân tọc Việt. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:16, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- Btw, Kransky does not care this was merely an attempt to win you. He is not sincere. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 07:50, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Very clever Kransky using what you have in common as a way of influencing him to favour you, but hopefully Blnguyen will choose to do the right thing and not favour you, at least consciously. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 07:40, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, he has already been influenced! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Can you please view Kransky's contributions and see the RfC he made about me which did not abide by any of the policies put in place before making it. And if you wish to help us settle our disputes then can you please read from start to end and not selected sections. It may take you a long time as there is alot of history but if you truly wish to help you need to know the full story. Thankyou. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 07:48, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- Also could you tell him to observe WP:CIVIL please? You will understand why by looking at his contributions before I posted the comment on the Chilean Talkpage which I'm pretty certain you are referring to. Thankyou. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 07:58, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Museum in Vietnam
- Copied on 11:32, 13 May 2008 (UTC) from User talk:Blofeld of SPECTRE, cos he said he was busy and he recommended I ask you.
I was checking "what links here" for Albert Memorial, and was surprised to see a Vietnam museum pop up. The article was a mess, so I redirected to the city article, but I remembered that you were creating museum stubs recently. Do you want to have a go at turning Nha Trang Live History Museum into an article, using the material in the page history at Nha trang live history muesum? I think this is meant to be a different museum to the Yersin Museum, which looks quite interesting (and doesn't have an article). But it might be the same thing. What do you think? Carcharoth (talk) 22:52, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, I should have left User:Synitti a message. I'll do that later, but if you do end up doing something here, maybe you could leave a message instead? If you don't have time to deal with this, just say, and I'll explain why I redirected it and help them if they want to write an article on the museum. Carcharoth (talk) 22:54, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- End quote.
Would you be able to help? Carcharoth (talk) 11:32, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- I've looked into it and there doesn't seem to be a museum with that name. There is however a Alexandre Yersin Museum which the article does mention "Yershin Museum". The page should be deleted as the part about the albert museum is clear nonsene, and later the Alexandre Yersin Museum started. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ 16:29, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Privacy query
Blnguyen, can you advise on this thread relative to the Hillary Clinton FAC and QuirkyAndSuch (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)? The editor had his personal myspace account posted to his user page since March 2006, it was raised on the FAC, he removed his myspace link on May 11, 2008 (two years later) and he now wants the link removed from the FAC. My understanding is that policy doesn't allow me to do that, and that the only way that info can be expunged is if he exercises RTV, but I don't know policy in this area, and I don't want to do something that risks destabilizing the FAC. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:56, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oh I would be willing to bend the rules and oversight if another oversighter would agree with it. I'm not too worried about the compromising of the FAC, although you might think differently. A lot of FACs have ethnic bloc votes and I wouldn't really care whether the guy has a blog or a userpage with strong opinions on ethnic matters since even with most street-smart guys who don't declare their ideology, it still affects their dispute/poll positions anyway. A guy might not even know that he is biased but I have seen way biased people with no soapboxing on their userpages. But I think talking to the guy who raised his website and asking them to refactor is ok. And then oversighting. Raul can oversight as well. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:16, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- Both "sides" seem dug in here, so I'm afraid to suggest anything lest it rock the boat; I don't think asking the fellow who posted it to refactor is going to go over well. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 02:19, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
of course, it is me
I just forgot to login sometimes. Never trying to hide that. So afraid of truth? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guox0032 (talk • contribs) 04:34, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
I forgot
I forgot 3rr apply to 1 article not to 1 editor. If I get banned for 1 day, I have no complain. But why did you edit out the slavery part, do you not believe that or refuse to believe that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.137.88.55 (talk) 05:06, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Notice of 3RR violation
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution.
RS
Did you even read my sources to claim my sources are not reliable? You are one sided, and bias on this matter. I don't deny some of the good things dalai lama has done, but he has done plenty bad things as well, and this article is really one sided. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guox0032 (talk • contribs) 05:36, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
