I'm about ready to ask for administrator intervention with this user. Would you be willing to assist draft a report? Davejohnsan (talk) 17:27, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

Actually, I thought that I already had drafted something but I can't find it right now. If you want to start I'm sure that I can find plenty to add. --AussieLegend () 17:38, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
I'm noticing this guy, too. Lots of odd little edits, some constructive, some not. He doesn't seem to want to discuss from what you're saying, and doesn't know the meaning of edit summary. I haven't seen anything too problematic yet, but he's worrying. --Drmargi (talk) 15:50, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
Well, for now he's stopped uploading images that are copyvios or for which has falsely claimed authorship. That was problematic. Today he changed all of the prod codes for NCIS and I had to revert the changes in all 11 articles. I find myself having to watch his edits like a hawk. Many of the edits, like inexplicably removing images are a concern, and so on. --AussieLegend () 16:06, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, that's about what I'm seeing, minus the pictures. I haven't run across that yet. I've seen him largely at Person of Interest and CSI, and I noticed the penchant for production code changes, too. We'll keep an eye on him. --Drmargi (talk) 16:18, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

Enforcing xenophobic rule

Besides the fact that you have no evidence that the foreign broadcast wasn't shown in english with foreign subtitling. Upholding this promotes a xenophobic culture within the english and other translations on articles. How this short sighted ruling made it in so easily makes one question the validity of other guidelines. helmboy 21:44, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

What nonsense. You can't cry xenophobia as a rationale for "assuming" something is being done in another country. As Aussie has explained to you in some detail, there is consensus governing inclusion of television broadcasts in non-English speaking countries. We cannot assume a program is broadcast in English (which is a proper noun and capitalized, no matter how clever you want to be); the burden is on you to provide a source an English-language program is broadcast in English with or without subtitles rather than being dubbed into the language of the country. No source? It stays out. The standard is that only English-language broadcasts go on the broadcast list in the en-wikipedia. --Drmargi (talk) 02:49, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
Speaking for someone on their talk page, just shows a that you have no respect of boundaries. As for nonsense, the consensus that was reached is clearly xenophobic and based on your rationale, there should be absolutely no mention of anything that is non-English in English targeted articles. helmboy 05:55, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
If you look at the top of my talk page, you'll see a notice saying that friendly talk page stalkers are welcome here so Drmargi's comments are more than welcome, and correct. If ou don't like the consensus, then feel free to start another discussion. --AussieLegend () 08:19, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
