Vandalism?????

I have eddited no pages. I dont know what you are talking about I'm sorry

I am the copy write holder

For your information I am the copywrite holder for CHOSA. But I will leave the artical as minimal as possible.

JP cartoon "victims"

Since you've warned to block me indefinitely should I recreate the page in any fashion, I'd like to ask you, whether you'd agree if I'd follow Joes advice and use his title for my page. If you wish, I'll blank out the names of the admins as well. Can you live with that? Raphael1 00:17, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Please let me explain, why I feel the need to make this list: This list would point out the results, when administrators enforce Februarys poll results by blocking editors who ignore those polls. I don't like those consequences, and they are actually in conflict with WP:NBD

In order to reach the best possible decisions, we hold it important to listen carefully to each other's arguments, and to try to find mutually acceptable solutions in conflicts. Polls are the exception and not the rule, and where they do exist they are not binding.

and WP:CON

Precise numbers for "supermajority" are hard to establish, and Misplaced Pages is not a majoritarian democracy, so simple vote-counting should never be the key part of the interpretation of a debate. When supermajority voting is used, it should be seen as a process of 'testing' for consensus, rather than reaching consensus. The stated outcome is the best judgment of the facilitator, often an admin. If there is strong disagreement with the outcome from the Misplaced Pages community, it is clear that consensus has not been reached.

Do you have any suggestion for an inoffensive title for the list? Raphael1 02:09, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

May I regard your silence as consent? How about the title "Consequences of enforcing Februarys poll results"? Raphael1 12:54, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

usernameblock

Hi Zoe, how do I report a possible {{usernameblock} candidate? It's User:Ricardo Lagos (former Chilean president). He has been editing Ricardo Lagos, engaged on vandalism and personal attacks agaist another user who warned him. Regards, E Asterion 00:52, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Ricardo Lagos has been repeatedly vandalizing, and when I reverted his massive vandalism, he tried to add it to BJAODN. If he's up to it again, it's time for him to be blocked. User:Zoe| 01:49, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. An admin blocked him for now. I found him funnily disturbing. There are some weird people out there...E Asterion 08:55, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Thank you for the trust that you had in me when you supported my Request for Adminship. The nomination ended successfully and I am actually overwhelmed by the support that I received. Thanks again! -- Kim van der Linde 07:07, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

3 rv rule redirect.

Sorry. I just thought it would be easier to go to this page that way. If it is causing problems or i have done something wrong, please delete it. I was just trying to find the three revert rule page as a person has been vandalising the autism and aspergers pages, amongst others. Actually can you do anything about them. They are from IP 70.142.153.51 Simply south 20:57, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I will try WP:3RR in future. Thanks for the shortcut. I must remember that when creating redirects, not to do them to pages with Misplaced Pages at the start or other such pages. Simply south 21:07, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Your proposed deletion of my first entry to Misplaced Pages :The res3ia Enigma

Hi there

Could you enlighten me as to what exactly is wrong with my entry. Having used Misplaced Pages for some time, I thought I would make a contribution of my own, only to discover that you had recommended it for deletion within moments.

Your article Porto-Novo

Hi, I have recieved an email from a reader about the article Porto-Novo. He noticed that article looks a lot like this article. Even more when your compare it with the the first version of the Misplaced Pages version. According that website the text of Porto-Novo comes from the "The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia". You seem to be creator of that article. Do you know how this can be? Greetings, --Walter 22:50, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I've never heard of allrefer.com, so I know I didn't copy it from there. This article was created in my earliest days on Misplaced Pages, but I really do not remember where the informatin came from. I'm sure I got it from several different online sites, the Columbia Encyclopedia may have been one of them, but I don't think I would have copied it verbatim. I honestly do not remember my source. Do you want to rewrite it? Or else I can, if you think it needs to be. User:Zoe| 20:45, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

When you compare the first version of Porto-Novo with the version of Porto-Novo from the Columbia Encyclopedia is clear the are almost the same. Only the Misplaced Pages-version is a redused version.

I think tr best way to resolve this if you would make a new article from scrach. Posibly a stub. And when that is done delete the article and directly restore it again with only the last edits of the history. Problem gone. --Walter 22:38, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Would this be a copyright problem concerning the other edits that have been done since my first version? User:Zoe| 22:42, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

The original version of the article is copyrighted by the Columbia Encyclopedia. All versions after that from the same source are also illegal. The current article is using a free licence while it has not right to be under the GNU/FDL. If you prefer I can use the VFD-procedure. I have contacted you directly to avoid that so it can be arranged more discretely. --Walter 21:11, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

I'm not trying to duck any responsibility, I just wanted to make sure that there would be no problems in doing as you suggest. I will take care of it, I just have to do some research. But as long as there are no copyright issues involved in deleting it and starting fresh, I will do so. User:Zoe| 21:13, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Could you take a look at User:Zoe/Porto-Novo and let me know what you think? User:Zoe| 02:46, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

The EN wikipedia is not my home-wiki. I can not guaranty that if you do that you do not get complaints/problems about it. If you are not sure you should use the VFD-procedure or whatever procedure there is to deal with copyright problems.

The new version looks very good. --Walter 08:35, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Deletion_review#User:Raphael1/Wikiethics

Since you previously showed interest in the former proposed policy Wikiethics, I'd like to inform you about this deletion review. Raphael1 15:01, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

AlternC and ASM.....and cPanel and Plesk

I'm a student at Umass Lowell, and I work for The Community Software Lab-->CSL I'm unsure as to why you deleted my pages for AlternC and ASM on account of advertising... They are extensions of Control panel(Web hosting) please tell me why the content is wrong, and the difference between my pages and cPanel and Plesk thank you.

Wheel War

You do realize a wheel war requires more than one action? The fact is the block was ridiculous. If I went around blocking everyone for a week every time they told me I was stupid or abusive or didn't deserve to be an admin because I blocked over an edit war, there would be hundereds of people blocked each week in that manner. He was asked several times to reduce the block and after 2 days, decided another 8 would be enough. 10 days for what? Please review the situation before jumping on someone for a non-existant wheel war. Shell 12:21, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Hawthorne Caballeros Drum and Bugle Corps

Why would you have deleted this page? It was empty but at least it was a start. --JimBurnell 20:43, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

OK, I'm still a newbie for Misplaced Pages, so I'm not sure whether our conversation should be on your talk page or on mine. In any case, yes, the content that you mentioned was vandalism, but not grounds for deleting the entire article. It was empty but it was a framework to be filled in later at least. Is there a way to resurrect it? --JimBurnell 20:44, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
