OhNoitsJamie, please stop deleting content that has been created, edited, and maintained by dozens of other Wikipedians. Rather than deleting the content of others, perhaps you could focus on adding to and improving Misplaced Pages. Then instead of people saying OhNoitsJamie, they will say HoorayitsJamie, he no longer indiscriminately deletes content, he is a valued contributer. ] 15:54, 14 March 2006 (UTC) |

Welcome to Jamie's talk page! Vandalism or hate mail from anonymous users, vandals, POV-pushers, and link spammers will be recycled in the bit bucket.

El juego
I removed your speedy deletion tag from this article. "El juego" means "the game" in Spanish, so it's a legitimate redirect IMHO. howcheng {chat} 00:37, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
Football Aid
I've noticed you did an edit on Kaká back a while ago. I nominated the article at Football Aid/Article Improvement. Maybe you can help out by voting and do more edits. There are also more articles you can do and you can nominate articles yourself.Kingjeff 00:41, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
Another Esperanzial note...
Hi again Esperanzians! Well, since our last frolic in the realms of news, the Advisory Council has met twice more (see WP:ESP/ACM2 and WP:ESP/ACM3). As a result, the charter has been ammended twice (see here for details) and all of the shortcuts have been standardised (see the summary for more details). Also of note is the Valentines ball that will take place in the Esperanza IRC channel on the 14th of February (tomorrow). It will start at 6pm UTC and go on until everyone's had enough! I hope to see you all there! Also, the spamlist has been dissolved - all Esperanzians will now recieve this update "newsletter".
The other major notice I need to tell you about is the upcoming Esperanza Advisory Council Elections. These will take place from 12:00 UTC on February 20th to 11:59 UTC on February 27th. The official handing-over will take place the following day. Candidates are able to volunteer any time before the 20th, so long as they are already listed on the members list. Anyone currently listed on the memberlist can vote. In a change since last time, if you have already been a member of the leadership, you may run again. Due to the neutrality precident, I will not vote for anyone.
Yours, as ever, Esperanzially,

OhNoItsJamie's Deletionist Bullying
- Removed my redirection from the Spanish name for The Game, 'El Juego' as supposedly nonsense vandalism . Later apologises to another Misplaced Pages user saying 'I guess I was too hasty in tagging that one'...
- Removes my addition that Aphex Twin (aka Richard D. James) grew up in Carharrack whilst leaving the info about his album. Which is more important, that he named a remix after it or he grew up there?
- Removed etymology of skunk (cannabis) from the strain Skunk No. 1
- Removed a link to my How to Skin Up Guide (Skinupperology), more informative and detailed than any of the other guides and including photos, all the other inferior links were left untouched.
- Removed my link to LoseTheGame.com, from page, even though it is by far the most comprehensive Game-related website.
A look through OhNoItsJamie's contributions reveals a rampant deletionist attitude having no respect for the opinions and knowledge of others. Jonty 23:42, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
- Response I'm not the only one who has reverted your edits, most of which consisted of link spam for your losethegame.com site (your registration of that domain can be confirmed via NetworkSolutions whois). The spam warning template that's been applied to your talk page clearly states the policy regarding using Misplaced Pages to drive traffic to your site. The other edits were reverted because they were unsourced and/or unencylopedic. The info about Aphex Twin was reverted because it accompanied a spam link to your site. You're welcome to restore that information (assuming that it's verifiable). I'm sorry if you're upset that the "Pez" article of your that I nominated for deletion was removed via an afd vote (which now has been recreated with no attempt to address issues raised in the afd vote). I stand by my editing history. OhNoitsJamie 03:35, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
Re: Bill Clinton
Regarding your comments on my talk page. My nullyfying your edit and bringing back vandalism was an accident. While you were reverting the page, I was doing a revert of my own. However, I was accidently reverting the vandalism back, not the trusted article. Just a little error on my part. Sorry for the problem. --John / Cloud109 18:37, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
Re: Big Spring, Texas
Okies. Thanks. --Zsinj
Skinupperology
Why do you keep removing this link, it is more informative than any of the others you have left. Jonty 21:15, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
Big Spring, Texas
I didn't even notice it was paraphrased. The first sentence of both paragraphs sounded very familiar and I assumed this was more stubborn editing from the same anon editor with that other ip address. Feel free to unrevert me if you think it is the right thing to do. Sorry! ApolloCreed 02:16, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
3rr noticeboard
Hi. I've just archived the noticeboard, including some of your reports that didn't get an answer. They are now stale, so need to be archived, but you may well have got a raw deal. If the problems continue, leave me a message next time you leave a report. Sometimes these things slip through, especially as there is no-one responsible (formally or informally) for checking that page. William M. Connolley 14:10, 18 February 2006 (UTC).
Spam
Great work reverting that anon spamming hockey pages! However, you rv'ed my category additions in the process. I partially reverted to restore them. Just thought I'd let you know. Take care. SoLando (Talk) 20:29, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
67.49.215.174
This is a public IP adress of my road runner cable modem. I have it hooked up to an unprotected wireless network. I live in an apartment complex. I know that some vandalism comes from this IP adress(probably from my neighbors), but I do legitimate contributions here. Could you please not block this IP? If the vandalism continues, I could possibly encrypt the network. --67.49.215.174 04:30, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

RE. BS. TX
Hey, Ohnoitsjamie, I'm afraid that the answer to your request for semi protection is no. SP not an option here. Unless the page is being heavily vandalized, semi protection is not applicable. For major disputes full protection can be an option. As I am rather unfamiliar with this situation, (since my protection of the article a week or so ago, I have not given much attention to it) I have the article on the CVU's watchlist in #wikipedia-en-vandalism so it is being monitored for major changes. If you would like to request protection please list it at WP:RFP. Thanks KnowledgeOfSelf 02:48, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
- It looks to me like this guy is more in violation of WP:POINT. Try getting someone to help with that. pschemp | talk 03:34, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
lol, I'm pretty sure I missed some of the reverts even with that huge list. I originally made it thinking it might be useful if RFAr comes up, but I don't think it will come to that. ~ ApolloCreed 03:46, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
- Jamie, that anon is dangersouly close to violating 3RR. pschemp | talk 03:46, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
Ok, I posted one more good faith request for reasons on the talk page and both anon editors pages. If this is not answered, we will wait a day and then remove the tag. At that point, any anon actions are vandalism. pschemp | talk 04:08, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
- Wow, I didn't notice the scope of the problem when I left that note on the anon's talk page! Other than trying to discuss it with them, all I can think of in response to your request for suggestions is to continue reverting and warning the IPs. They'll eventually get themselves blocked, and surely when one of his/her IPs gets blocked, surely the others can be too, right? Thanks for the tireless cleanup work! Peace, delldot | talk 18:53, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
- I actually brought this up on #wikipedia-en-vandalism on IRC. I was just talking to joanneB, and she said that it probably should not be treated like vandalism, and that maybe it should become an RfC if the problem persists. She also advocated discussing it with the person and linking to policy. Sorry I couldn't be more help here! Peace, delldot | talk 19:47, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
- Jamie, i'm drafting a RfC right now. Let me know the next time the page gets reverted by imposter and socks etc.. I will go over it with you and get it started. I fear that this is going to be a long term problem that comes back every time the page is unprotected or that a sock is unblocked. Later. pschemp | talk 22:47, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
User:Ohnoitsjayme
I've just blocked User:Ohnoitsjayme as an impersonator of you William M. Connolley 18:50, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
RfC
Thanks for the link. I'm not sure if I am to sign the endorsee line or the certifying line (I don't think I was involved enough in the attempts at resolution to certify). I am digging through some old RfC's to determine the correct choice. Congratulations on your first, second, and third impersonators, by the way. :) Kuru 01:41, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
- You got the right line. Thank you! pschemp | talk 04:17, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
- Note On advice from Essjay I have changed the title of the RfC to Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Happyjoe because it was causing some confusion as to who was doing the deeds. There is a redirect in place so nothing should be broken. Good work, pschemp | talk 04:24, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
- I've posted the editing insanity on WP:ANI. Maybe this will help. pschemp | talk 05:13, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
Oh the Drama!
Note from Essjay - "Make sure to tag them as socks of Ohnoitsjayme rather than Happyjoe". pschemp | talk 07:16, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
- I've confirmed that 212.142.140.149 is in fact an open proxy; if you know of other IPs he has used that are not listed at the RfC, let me know and I will scan them as well. Essjay 08:45, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
Account Unjustly Blocked
Dear "Ohnoitsjamie",
I have discovered that my account "Happyjoe" is blocked from editing due to some sort of misunderstanding over the Big Spring, TX article. I am not certain how to contact Misplaced Pages Technical Support or management to resolve this issue. As you were involved in the recent discussions over the Big Spring article I was hoping that you may be able to offer some assistance in having the block on the account removed. Please remove this block so that I may complete necessary editing on other articles. Thank you for your timely assistance in resolving this problem... Happyjoe 69.145.215.206 04:00, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
- I'm going to guess that the block has something to do with this RFC; specifically, the use of open proxies to circumvent Misplaced Pages policies and procedures. I'm afraid that I can't support a removal of the block based on your behavior documented at the RFC and here. OhNoitsJamie 15:34, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
removal and accusation
Encyclopedias are supposed to be an objective, unbiased, and accurate account of an event. By not allowing disclosure of this entry you are breaking the fundamental principle this site must maintain to protect the integrity of its information. Misplaced Pages is ultimately acting as a third party bias between the author and its audience and I am disgusted that some stranger suggests, on a whim, that some event they know absolutely nothing about is nonsense. In essence, your ignorance and power to alter a historical account is nothing short of vandalism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.192.242.71 (talk • contribs)
- The edit in question is decidedly unencyclopedic and unverifiable. OhNoitsJamie 18:55, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Moog records
We're on the threshold of a no concensus here. I've moved relevant text into the appropriate section of Robert Moog. As I continue to contend that "Moog records" is protologism, would you support a merge and delete? -- Krash (Talk) 23:02, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Open proxy scan request
Hello Ohnoitsjamie. Following your request, we've scanned User:69.145.215.206 and concluded that it was most likely not open. Note that this scan doesn't preclude the possibility that the IP address is a zombie computer or network; if you have reason to believe this is so, please list it at Vandalism in progress noting your suspicions. Thanks for your contributions to the WikiProject on open proxies. // Pathoschild (admin / ) 23:38, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
- That makes sense. It's registered to Bresnan Communications, which "currently serves over 300,000 customers in Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, and Utah." I suspect that the user is a student at the University of Wyoming, because two of the non-proxy attacks came from IPs registered to that school. OhNoitsJamie 23:45, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
- The same goes for 129.72.77.27, by the way; I forgot to mention it in my message. :) // Pathoschild (admin / ) 23:50, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

I posted a response to your vote at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Michael Hammer. Could you please check it out and let me know what you think? Thanks! :-) CrypticBacon 05:24, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Re: proposed deletion tag
You're welcome! Haha, I was actually just writing you a message about them when I was checking the names of the articles under my user contributions when I noticed you'd left me a message. :-) Jude(talk,contribs) 00:24, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
Thank you!
Thank you! Hi Ohnoitsjamie, thank you for your support in my Rfa! It passed with a final tally of 86/0/0. If you need help or just want to talk let me know! Again, thank you! – Dakota ~ ° 23:29, 3 March 2006 (UTC) |
Michael Hammer and James Champy
Hi, you voted 'keep, here. Could you have a look here for discussion on a related article? Those pages have my response and I have improved the articles as well. Both of them are well-established authors in their fields and sold more than a million books individually, so they are notable. btw, I am under some time constraints and cannot research right now to improve James A. Champy to the same level as Michael Hammer, but I'd get around to it soon, in case it is not deleted ;) TIA, --Gurubrahma 18:16, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Please stop removing my edits
Please stop removing the links from the hangman page. I don't believe any of the group are particularly commercial. The friendlydragon one certainly is not. GameMan GameMan 03:57, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
- The domains of all of your external link additions are owned by the same individual and have Google syndication links. Misplaced Pages is not a vehicle to increase traffic to those sites. OhNoitsJamie 04:00, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
That would be more honestly worded as both (as in two) of your external links are registered to the same person, and one of them contains google adsense. But an honest portrayal is not what you had in mind, is it?
Yes, please do post everything. All 2 of my external links? Friendlydragon.com and perfectpixelpage.com for any other editors that care to take a look? Oh, and all two logons. The one before I registered, and and the one after I registered in order to be able to set up a permanent personal page to speak to you both have the same IP? Wow! I'd say that's pretty deceitful stuff! Definitely should be tagged as "Sockpuppets".
What did I do to you that you are pursuing me to be a nuisance? I have done nothing inappropriate. I have added 3 links in my entire 2-weeks on Misplaced Pages. I added my link to the hangman page after others that existed. On the pixel ad page, I added content as well as my link. If you don't want links on that page, fine, but don't harrass me elsewhere, where you removed relevant links that had been there for months, presumably so you could claim impartiality. Don't accuse me of spamming for 3 different links on 3 different topics, and don't accuse me of using sockpuppets for registering.
Yes, friendlydragon.com has adsense ads. A free gamesite for hangman, concentration, and nim is a big moneymaker, generating almost 1/2 what it costs to host it. The site has been online for nearly 10-years and has a higher page-rank than the wiki page I posted to. Yeah, I'm wildly spamming the Wiki for personal gain.
Anyone who takes the time to look at that site can see that adsense or no, it is done for fun and as a service and not for profit, but then you wouldn't want to be confused with the facts, would you. The other of the whole 2 domains you refer to, perfectpixelpage.com, has no revenue source and exists merely as an art experiment.
I used to have a lot of respect for the wikipedia community - still do actually - but you are sure leaving a sour taste. Just because you don't like an edit I make, does not give you the right to be rude and slanderous. Bring it to other editors if you like, but don't imply things you must know to be untrue. If you are smart enough to be this much of a pest, you are smart enough to know there has been no attempt to mislead or distort on my part, so watch your accusations.
Perhaps you should educate yourself on polite web etiquette, instead of pursuing others over your personal pet peeves. Oh, and by the way, I have my email listed, so instead of misrepresenting my actions to the community at large, perhaps you could email first in the future.
If you are picking up a note of anger here, it is because I am furious at the moment. Your self-annointed-god-like attitude doesn't help, but your attempts to portray me as deceitful with the misleading wording of your comments about me truly ticks me off. GameMan
- Response I'm just calling it like I see it. Your anon IP address did nothing much else besides add external links with Google ads whose domains were registered to the same person. I removed the ads (as well as other commercial links that were on those pages), User_talk:24.149.205.186 warned you about it and responded on the talk page. You then registered an account and added those links back. I sockpuppet tagged that account and warned you again. These actions and the fact that you seemed to adament about retaining the links led me to think you were trying to increase traffic to your sites through Misplaced Pages (which many folks attempt to do). Yes there were "only" three links, but I was trying to nip the issue in the bud. I'm sorry that you think this is harassment, but when a user does little else besides add external links with ads, I always check their history, and remove ads from any previous contributions. I believe strongly in keeping Misplaced Pages free of adverts and not letting it degenerate into a link farm.
- If you've set up an account to contribute other things besides links to personal pages, great. We welcome your contributions. Assuming good faith, I'll remove the sockpuppet template. Regards, OhNoitsJamie 15:20, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply. I do not agree with you about the links, as I obviously felt they were relevant, but as you have been around longer here longer than I have I will defer to your opinion, at least until I have reason to be convinced otherwise. I was pretty angry when I wrote the last post, and in light of your more polite reply feel less attacked. As a suggestion for the future, you might want to pay more attention to overall context before replying in a way that could be considered insulting. Whether it was intended or not, your attitude came across as extremely insulting to me. I had taken care to ensure the links were relevant to the topics, I noted that on the hangman page, which was the only one I particularly cared about, there were several longstanding links. I posted mine discretely under the others as the last link, and tried in every way to be low-key and non-offensive. When you removed the link in the pixel ad section, I went back and read the history of the page, noted there had been a long-running problem with numerous links, and did not repost there. I did the same on the hangman page, and noted the links were longstanding, and had never been an issue, so reposted there. When I registered, I left you a note asking that you please stop remove my links. Would I have done that if I were trying to pretend to be someone else? There was really nothing to add about hangman, so I added nothing else. I had additional relevant comments on both other topics (the concentration addition is on the main page noting another meaning, not the game page). I was miffed that you just bulk deleted on the pixel theme, without even noting the additional comment, which is not only relevant, but would seem to reinforce the reasoning for not wanting the external links on that page. I also noted that while you were very quick to remove the labled links where I placed my link, you left the dead link to tic-tac-toe hangman, and then in your haste to revert the page, restored the dead link I had removed. Perhaps I was being oversensitive but the fact that you just undid every change, without bothering to separate the ones that you objected to from others I made did make me feel attacked. Again, I understand the reasoning on the pixel page, but on the hangman and concentration pages, which are unlikely ever to attract more than a handfull of links, I think you should reconsider restoring the removed links. I would think links to a few relevant examples would be a usefull addition. However, it is not something worth arguing about. If you had simply asked that I not include links on the pixel page, without making the comment "sorry spammer" in the edit, which came across to me as rather snotty, I would not have had a problem or felt offended. The fact that you felt you should then look at my post history, and remove everything without bothering to read what else was there also annoyed me. The three other additions may have been short (one sentence in the case of the pixel page -- one dead link removal on hangman, which I researched and spent a good 1/2 hour trying to find and correct before deleting -- one addition to the main concentration page on chemistry) but they were thoughtful, well considered, and carefully worded. They certainly took a lot more effort to post than you spent removing them. Anyway, I would send this privately, but can't seem to find how to get an email from your registration. It's wordy and picky, because I still feel a bit attacked and want to feel vindicated. However, the tone of your last post indicates some of that feeling may be overreaction on my part. I often remind others that straight text contains no inflections, and can be misinterpreted, but am having a hard time following my on advice in this instance. I would suggest that in the future, especially when writing to someone you've never had interaction with before, that you put some thought into how you could be interpreted before making comments, and that you take the time to check the totality of a change before removing it in total. It would have been nice to see the dead link remain gone in hangman, and the comment about link farms remain in the pixel page. Meanwhile, I'll try to remember my own advice about written messages before becoming angry in the future. P.S. I know this is wordy. Feel free to delete it after reading if you like.GameMan
- Response I rarely leave "snotty" edit summaries, like the "sorry spammer" one. I suppose I did in that case because it was on the Pixel advertising page, which is a hotspot for spamming; also, I feel very strongly about not letting people turn Misplaced Pages into a link farm. Nonetheless, I apologize for failing to assume good faith on your edit. Regarding the edits to the two game pages; I'll admit that it's debatable whether or not those pages need an external link section. I try to maintain a pretty strict interpretation of what articles really need external links. For Concentration or Hangman, a quick Google search will yield hundreds of free games; I lean toward the attitude that unless there is a particularly notable one, or a completely advert free, public domain one, let the user find examples via web searches. If you posted a question on the talk pages for those games to see what others thought about adding a few example links, I would respect the consensus opinion.
- I tend to make my reverts very quickly; the idea is that if a vandalism or link spam is reverted within seconds, that endeavor will be abandoned as futile. In my haste, I do occasionally make mistakes.
- Fighting link spam can be more frustrating than fighting vandalism, as (1) there's already a lot of existing link spam and (2) link spammers are often able to operate faster and cause more disruption before they're blocked. Here's one of the more egregious examples that I had to cleanup with the help of another user. I tend to take a hard-line approach when I see a few instances of what I think is link spam in an effort to avoid situations like that. I have a few personal sites with lots of info relating to a few topics here, but I've resisted the temptation to add them to the articles (even though they have no ads). Unfortunately, there isn't a black-and-white rule for what's an appropriate link and what's an advert/promotional/vanity link. Just today, I changed my mind about a few travel links a user had added (travel links comprise a large portion of spam links) after examining the link contents and deciding that the site seemed to be non-commercial and useful.
- I appreciate your taking the time to write a thoughtful response and consider both sides of the issue. Your constructive criticism of my handling of the situation is noted and appreciated. Cheers, OhNoitsJamie 03:20, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
RFA Thanks
Thank you! Thank you for your support in my recent RFA. It passed 53/1/2 and I am now an administrator. I appreciate that some of you made exceptions to your usual requirements re length of service and so on because we've interracted positively in the past, or because of my credentials, so I will endeavour to use my new mop cautiously.

Long-deserved and well-deserved award

Inappropriate usernames template
You can dump a {{PUB}} on them, though I'm not sure how many admins are watching the category as of yet. Theoretically some of the vandal fighter tools do / will check for that template and make admins aware of it.
Just thought I'd let you know. Of course, dumping PUB and reporting them to WP:AIV has twice the chance of getting them blocked. ;) --Syrthiss 21:58, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

I spent some time researching the top classifieds in India and then a lot of time researching the strengths and weaknesses of each. I would appreciate it if you put it back for discussion purposes. --bluesargam
Thanks for your help. Regards --bluesargam
My post on the india page: Hello, I am the author of the online classifieds in india article. I would like to request that the original article be reverted to on the main site so that knowledgeable users on India can review it like ohnoitsjamie mentioned. bluesargam 23:37, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
Indian Online Classifieds Industry
I added {{prod}} but it was removed by Bluesargam. Sending to AfD for review. Moved Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Spam#Indian_Online_Classifieds_Industry to Talk:Indian_Online_Classifieds_Industry. Hopefully we can get some more input from other editors on how to handle this article. Monkeyman 05:42, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Bulldog spam
Heya, you and I had edit conflict with you about about that breeder spam guy, you were a little faster than me :) Just as an FYI if you see him do it again and need to report him on WP:AIV.
It's actually spam4 instead of spam1 - he has added those links under two other accounts and has been warned there.

Deletion
OhNoitsJamie, please stop deleting content that has been created, edited, and maintained by dozens of other Wikipedians. Rather than deleting the content of others, perhaps you could focus on adding to and improving Misplaced Pages. Then instead of people saying OhNoitsJamie, they will say HoorayitsJamie, he no longer indiscriminately deletes content, he is a valued contributer. PoolGuy 15:54, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
