Or: The War Room

Gentlemen, you can't fight in here, this is the War Room!

Template:Usertalkpage (rounded) User:MuZemike/Menu

  • Deleted pages – if I deleted a page you were involved with in which you have an issue with, talk to me about it first here. I will be happy to userfy for you, restore the page if I believed to have made an error in judgment, or fulfill any other request within reason. If you would like a copy of any other deleted page to work on, also let me know. Keep in mind that I will not, for any reason, restore copyright violations or attack pages.

Welcome to my talk page! Please do not bring discussions here from other pages. Please use diffs when talking about edits. If you leave me a message on my talk page, I will reply on my talk page, so you may want to watch this page. I will not continue to watch a talk page if the discussion has migrated. I check my watchlist regularly. I don't always add talk pages to my watchlist if I comment on them, unless it's a user talk page or I started an important discussion. Thank you.

Oh, and remember to post new comments and topics at the bottom of the page or the section in which you are discussing and sign every post you make here by simply adding four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your message.

Wikibreak

I'm going on an wikibreak for a while from this crapfest here. I get more respect on other sites such as YouTube than I've been getting here. If I come back, I'm doing some new projects in which I am able to work with others instead of against them. Thank you, MuZemike 12:27, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Always unfortunate to see a good editor go, though I more than understand why. I hope to see you on here again, as there are a number of editors that would be happy to work with you, myself included. Take care and get some well deserved rest. (Guyinblack25 15:34, 21 September 2009 (UTC))
Yes, working with people, not against them, is so much more in the founding spirit of Misplaced Pages. Irvine22 (talk) 16:54, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
I just wanna let you know that I hope you come back. You were one of the editors I respected the most. Like Gib said, take care. GamerPro64 (talk) 19:51, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
While I only worked with you once (with regards to By78's vandalism), I'd like to thank you for taking action against this user. Unfortunately, said user decided to "contribute" from another IP and it looks like the drama hasn't ended. Anyways, it would be great to see you on Misplaced Pages again but in the meanwhile I hope you enjoy your break.
Take Care,
Vedant (talk) 04:12, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
I hope that you find your wikibreak to your satisfaction and arrive at a point where you are ready to come back and continue making your excellent contributions. Your presence and assistance will be missed. Hope to see you soon.

Notes

  1. I may come on from time to time to look at some SPI cases and/or upon request by clerks or CheckUsers, and I may do some administrative tasks, as well. I'm mostly taking a break from the editing and content side.

Response

I thank the encouragement from those above, I really do. At the least I will stay on here and work on administrative tasks which need to be worked on (i.e. tasks that administrators do). As people have told me, I do have an obligation to serve the community at the very least as an administrator, having being trusted by the community with that. As far as what I will work on as an editor is concerned, I don't know, yet. I hope I can work on a project in which I don't get as much friction as I have gotten on previous venues. Thank you, MuZemike 22:26, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Moved Catalan gunpowder & Catalan Celestina

I think I have corrected all the issues... They were unfinished... But on the other hand...

Do you think anyone can consider being my own work, the fact of publishing works from other people already published in encyclopediae or research books 5, 30 or 80 years ago? (80 years ago I wasn't even born) The only thing I shouldn't do is to draw my own conclusions, but this is not the case, for I just publish assertions from other people's works already published in other books or encyclopediae

I've copied the references from worldcat.org

Catalan gunpowder

  1. ^ Enciclopedia Universal Ilustrada Europeo Americana., Madrid 1934-96- VOL.46 - Page 122- ISBN 8423945006
  2. ^ NASA CONFERENCE PUBLICATION #2014, VOL.1, Page 73 - R. Cargill Hall - OCLC Number: 5354560
  3. ^ a b La historia del muy alto e invencible Rey Don Iayme de Aragon, primero deste nombre llamado el Conquistador - Bernardino Gómez Miedes - Valencia (viuda de Pedro de Huete, 1584)
  4. ^ NASA CONFERENCE PUBLICATION #2014, VOL.1, Page 78 - R. Cargill Hall - OCLC Number: 5354560

Thanks. You need to do some other thing as well to make it look like an encyclopedia article:

  • Ditch that "introduction" section and replace with a lead section. Normally, leads start with something like "Catalan gunpowder is...", and the most basic description follows. The remainder of the lead section documents a brief overview of the subject. Follow the bolded link to learn about how a lead section is properly constructed and works.
  • From what it looks like, you're describing a history of Catalan gunpowder (correct me if I'm not right), so you should organize it as such. After the lead section, you should have a heading called "History", and then describe, in prose, a chronological history of Catalan gunpowder. We normally don't organize sections by reference as it confuses readers greatly; I think those were also big concerns brought up by User:DragonflySixtyseven when he deleted them.

Try restructuring that article like that first before going anywhere else with it. It might also help if you look at similar articles such as gunpowder or history of gunpowder to see how similar articles are constructed. MuZemike 19:46, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

SPI case

My apologies. I found the process confusing. When one clicks the button "Start an SPI case WITHOUT a CheckUser request," it takes you to an archive page. Where might I find current directions? Again, my apologies for doing it incorrectly. -- Tenebrae (talk) 01:24, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Again, my confusion. The archive page was Misplaced Pages: Suspected sock puppets.
I am at the "Start an SPI case WITHOUT a CheckUser request page. It says "You can view and copy the source of this page." I read that, I guess erroneously, to mean copy the boxed text and place it somewhere; I assumed at "Open cases: not awaiting CheckUser" at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations. Is this where I went wrong? Where should I copy that information?
The most recent name making the identical edits, and with a contributions list of this same on article, is User:Blammersky, so I believe that would be the sock puppetmaster.
Thank you for your help. Sorry if I seem slow. I haven't requested an investigation in a very long time, and the process appears to have changed. With thanks, -- Tenebrae (talk) 01:41, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
I see you placed my investigation request in the proper place. Thank you for doing so, and I apologize for the putting you to the trouble. I think in the end, it will help make these single-purpose accounts more responsible. -- Tenebrae (talk) 01:49, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately. :( Elockid ·Contribs) 15:13, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Vandal from the 202.70.61.128/27 range returned.

Ever since the one-week block on 202.70.61.128/27 expired yesterday, the vandal who used the range has returned, this time using 202.70.61.144 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). I've also posted a report on WP:AN/I. Although the vandal hasn't edited for about half an hour now, I'm sure he'll reappear in another address in the same range sooner or later. - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 02:14, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Same range blocked for 2 weeks. MuZemike 02:23, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Ōnishi, Ehime mistakenly deleted

Hello. You deleted Ōnishi, Ehime for being a copyvio of http://en.allexperts.com/e/o/on/onishi,_ehime.htm, but as noted at the bottom of the link, Allexperts' page was taken from Misplaced Pages to begin with. In other words it was deleted for being a copyvio of itself. Please restore the page. -Amake (talk) 07:07, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

 Done Sorry, about the confusion/mistake. I overlooked that one :( MuZemike 07:10, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Ricky Ricotta AfD

Just a friendly question: you closed Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot vs. the Naughty Night Crawlers from Neptune as having been speedily deleted, but there were two articles nominated, only one of which was speedied. How would you like me to handle the second article -- another AfD? Thanks!--Fabrictramp | talk to me 14:54, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Damn, I didn't see that one! And that's not really A3'able, either. I'll reopen the AFD for that one. MuZemike 14:57, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 15:01, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

edit war?

Hi, I saw you placed Misplaced Pages:Local_Embassy under protection. As I'm inexperienced to act, I bring to your attention a similar situation in West_Germany. Cheers Antipastor (talk) 19:48, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, I will watch closely. The user just received a {{uw-3rr}} warning by somebody else, so a block would not be unreasonable the next time he keep reverting like this. MuZemike 19:49, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Two users reverted three times at West Germany today. The newbie was given a warning by MuZemike, while the other, a user who was placed on Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/Digwuren#List_of_editors_placed_on_notice and is currently under investigation by Arbcom, was not notified by anybody. How come? -- Matthead  Discuß   21:59, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

FWIW, User:Rjanag full-protected West Germany shortly thereafter. I can warn Jacurek for general edit-warring, but I can tell you right now that he's not going to break 3RR since the full-protection is up for three days. Also, this is the second page User:Flroian River has revert-warred on, so I don't think it should have been ignored because of WP:BITE, respecially regarding that all the other edits by that user seem to be narrow in focus. I was unaware that the user is currently under investigation by ArbCom. Perhaps someone else should have told me, or someone watching that ArbCom case should have been aware. If I looked one-sided, then I apologize for that oversight.
With that said, note that I am also watching Expulsion of Germans after World War II, as that has also popped up. (He is currently at 2RR right now there.)MuZemike 22:11, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
I have now given Jacurek a warning to watch his reverting. I will keep watch. MuZemike 22:17, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
Matthead himself has also made two reverts (one with no edit summary whatsoever) on West Germany. I saw at least 4 editors involved, that's why I protected it rather than blocking anyone. rʨanaɢ /contribs 22:58, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
Right. Similar to my full-protection earlier on Misplaced Pages:Local Embassy. MuZemike 23:00, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the warning, I will respect that. Just to let you know since there is a lot more to it, the user User_talk:Matthead is currently under editing restrictions due to his controversial edits and reverts in the past. He cannot revert more than once etc. Thanks.--Jacurek (talk) 23:05, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
