So long and thanks for all the fish

Thank you for all of the warm wishes and generally nice thoughts sent in my direction. I have retired from all Wikimedia projects and turned in all my extra tools as a security measure (we all appreciate those now, don't we?). For those few of you who were disappointed at not getting a whole ton of gossip out of my explanation for leaving (and didn't think to ask me privately, duh) I can only offer this cartoon as penance. Best of luck to all of you and feel free to keep in touch (see above). Shell 11:44, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Adoption

Hey. Saw your add on the adoption page and I am looking for someone to show me how to be a more active contributer. I'm on Misplaced Pages all of the time, but I only make edits when I see vandalism or something small when I see incorrect information. This is due, not only to my ineptitude with HTML but also because I'm really just not very sure on what to do to create a full article. Look forward to hearing from you. Mikist4 (talk) 19:42, 15 May 2011 (UTC)mikist4

Hello Mikist4. Unfortunately I don't do a lot of content creation myself, so it's likely I wouldn't be much help in this area. If you have any questions about the wikimarkup itself or layout, I would be happy to help, but I'm afraid I'm rather horrible at finding topics to write about :) Shell 00:21, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

ACC

Hey Shell, If you have a chance could you come by ACC ? ATM we have 6 request waiting.
Thanks for all you do. Mlpearc powwow 13:09, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Getting it now, thanks for the heads up :) Shell 13:28, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

User Mtking

Hi, I need help with a user that is wikihounding all over the place. User:Mtking is actively attempting to deleted articles that I've created that are obviously notable. He as been warned before on his page to stop doing these sort of things but clearly he is ignoring that. Right now he just tag the Business Journals annual award list Forty under 40 with a notability deletion tag just because I created it. To be honest I copied this page example from the page on the Forbes Celebrity 100.

The Forty under 40 is mentioned all over the net and in searches... it is hard to miss. To question notability on this subject is really stupid for him to do but I think he is doing it just because I'm associated with the article. He is constantly trying to cause problems for me or get me blocked based on false and miss guided accusations. I would appreciated it if you would seriously just over look this guy and how he has been dealing with me. Good faith is thrown out the window and its all delete first and ask questions later. He and a group of his friends are doing so right now on another page I created about Dr. Paul Dorian (not to be confused with the CEO of similar name).NanaRobins (talk) 19:40, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Juice Plus and Rhode Island Red

Hello, just a FYI, I've managed to get myself dragged in to editing the Juice Plus article (with whom I have zero connection at all) plus related articles such as John A. Wise and have been encountering continuous problems with user Rhode Island Red, falsely accusing me of COI, ignoring policies, and generally wikihounding and editing tendentiously. I've just discovered that he/she has previously undertaken a 6 month ban for similar behaviour on the same article and that a year ago you informed him/her that any further editing on the article by him/her would likely result in a block. What would you advise in dealing with them?--Icerat (talk) 19:13, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Are you serious Icerat? You're wikihounding me on two different articles (Juice Plus and John A. Wise, facing a long block for edit warring (the third in roughly a week), engaged in disputes with multiple editors on multiple articles, ignored overwhelming consensus, faced repeated charges of disruptive and COI editing on the Amway articles, and now you are canvassing an admin against me and accusing me of improper conduct??? I am not your problem. You alone are responsible for the conflicts you are having with multiple editors and on multiple articles. And you didn't get "dragged into" editing the Juice Plus article -- you willfully chose to wikihound me there as soon as your last edit warring block expired. Your days here on WP may be numbered if you keep up this ridiculous shell game (no pun intended Shell). Rhode Island Red (talk) 19:33, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi Shell, as an outsider I had a look at the Juice Plus article and also a quick look at the BLP/N notice on the Wise article, and I need to comment that Icerat seems to be engaging in a novel interpretation of BLP (according to editors on BLP/N). Icerat seems to think that a source can never be used on the project because it may violate BLP. To defend that he quotes BLPSPS which is a defence that has been leveled at Stephen Barrett and Quackwatch int he past (remember all those loooooooooong discussions - I had thought they were done and dusted years ago). And rather than recognising that he's fighting against consensus, he's engaging in a spot of TE and repeating his points over and over again. I note that Alison has got a flag in to look at the Juice article, but I'm not sure if she should be handling this from an admin perspective. Shot info (talk) 22:21, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Sorry to bring this mob here Shelly, but Shot Info is not an "outsider" uninvolved party, we have a past history. WP:BLPSPS is clear, no exception has ever been made for Stephen Barrett. --~

Mikemikev's posting on Stormfront

I noted that checkuser had determined that technical evidence pointed to Comicania as a sockpuppet of Mikemikev. This recent post of Mikemikev on the website Stormfront Is not very encouraging. Mathsci (talk) 18:14, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, unfortunately you appear to need an account to see the post and I'd rather not sign up on a site like that. I've seen some talk recently of socking by Mikemikev, so I think that folks still have eyes on the situation. Shell 21:06, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
The Stormfront website is slightly unstable, but can be seen without logging in. I made a copy of his posting here for reference. Mathsci (talk) 23:30, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
