Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 16:10, 5 December 2006

I would like to apologize if I accused you falsely. I wasn't actually misled by -jkb-; I was looking for accounts that might be related to Vít Zvánovec, and was probably too suspicious. - Mike Rosoft 08:27, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

This is a probably a misunderstanding. The problem was not false accusation of sockpuppeting. Sock puppets are legal and everybody has a right to use them. Problem was that you accused me without any proof that I am a vandal and you speculated about my identity. But you have apologized and I accept it. -- Zacheus 18:49, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

The Checkuser has discovered that you don't seem to be connected to the vandal harassing various Misplaced Pages users, so I would like to apologize for my suspicion. - Mike Rosoft 09:08, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. I appreciate your responsibility to your actions. What a pity that others don't behave like you. -- Zacheus 09:41, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Changing username

You made a request on Misplaced Pages:Changing username to have another user's name changed; this is not permitted, usernames are only changed by request of the user, and the request must be made from the account that is being renamed. If you are the user in question, you are welcome to sign in with the account that is to be renamed and make the request (you may do so on your talk page if that account is blocked, and then post a diff of it to Misplaced Pages:Changing username with another account); if you are not the user in question, please do not make requests to rename other users.

• I have reverted your edits of the checkuser requests. They are archived for further reference, and shouldn't be moved or refactored without a permission (I have asked about it at Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for checkuser). I am afraid I won't re-add your barnstar, either; you have obviously added it to your user page yourself. - Mike Rosoft 23:23, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
  • And one more thing: you keep demanding protection of your privacy by removal of references to your real name (which you have voluntarily published on Misplaced Pages by registering an acount of that name), but at the same time violate privacy of other Misplaced Pages editors on your blog. Remove the references to real names of the Czech Wikipedians (published there without their permission), and you'll have a case. Thank you. - Mike Rosoft 23:43, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

You find my reply at Try to behave as a proper sysop. -- Zacheus 00:34, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

If you want to debate with -jkb-, please do it either on his or on your talk page. Additionally, I'd like to recommend you to seek mediation to settle your differences. I can't comment on most of the charges you bring on each other; however, there is at least one case where -jkb- is right, not you. You claim to have never published -jkb-'s real name on Misplaced Pages - did you forget about this? - Mike Rosoft 14:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

OK, I will respect it.

He is not right. I wrote about Jan Koukal who is a public figure and deserves a NPOV article. I never connected at Wikimedia projects this trockyist to any Wikipedian. -- Zacheus 14:15, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, right. Who cares that I have never heard of him. And please note that an article about a living person which is negative in tone and cites no sources is essentially an attack page and subject to speedy deletion. (The now existing article Jan Koukal is about somebody else.) - Mike Rosoft 13:31, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

It is not my problem that you are not oriented in Czech exile. And I did not create an article about a living person, but rather about a problem which postcommunists don't like to hear. And, obviously, my article was properly sourced. -- Zacheus 17:45, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

No, your article (reconcilee) didn't contain ANY sources corroborating that claim. (For that matter, neither did the article Jan Koukal.) Please don't say that it did, because I can easily check. - Mike Rosoft 14:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

I find very hard to discuss with you. You wrote I had made an article about a living person. I replied I had not done. You replied, of course, but you made an article with no sources. I replied I had not done. You replied, of course, but you made a statement with no sources. I reply, of course, but this statement was quickly deleted by Beren. Could you be please next time much more precise in your statements in order to avoid this useless discussion? -- Zacheus 15:02, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Beren never edited the article reconcilee, nor did he delete the article Jan Koukal. Please tell me what you mean by that statement. (Beren did edit the Czech article cs:upravenec - now moved - but you can't mean that, either; his only two edits are addition of a category and removal of a deletion notice.) The article reconcilee is obviously not a candidate for speedy deletion, and it was never deleted; however, the part about Jan Koukal was rightfully removed from it; the reason is the same as why articles containing only attacks or unsourced negative claims about a person can be speedily deleted. This is why I had brought the criterion to your attention. - Mike Rosoft 15:38, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

It is not my problem that you don't know all Beren's sockpuppets.

however, the part about Jan Koukal was rightfully removed from it It was not. WP:BLP was just a guideline when I wrote it. -- Zacheus 15:53, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Regarding the sockpuppets, I am going to be blunt, so sorry in advance: put up or shut up. Either provide evidence that he uses sockpuppets (User:Beren has no edits), or stop making the claim. And the your claim was indeed rightfully removed from the article; WP:V has always been policy. (And just because WP:BLP was a guideline at the time, and WP:CITE is even now, it doesn't mean that you can wilfully violate it and not be called on it. Just like in your arbitration case, you are confusing Misplaced Pages with a legal system.) - Mike Rosoft 16:10, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

We have strayed from the original topic, so let's get back. I maintain that you had posted -jkb-'s real name on Misplaced Pages. You claim that it's not the case, and that you were writing about a public figure of Jan Koukal. I find it difficult to believe, because I have never heard of him (I might ask on Czech Misplaced Pages), and because it doesn't seem to be a coincidence that the vandal I have started two checkuser requests against has repeatedly added the same claim to -jkb-'s user page. (And even if you were telling the truth, the claim - as you added it to the article - has no place on Misplaced Pages anyway.) - Mike Rosoft 16:10, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Jan Koukal je známá osoba, byl senátorem za ODS a pražským primátorem. Nikde jsem nenašel zmínku o tom, že by emigroval, nemohl tedy ani "upravovat" svůj vztah s ČSSR. Ergo Zacheus zase lže. --Egg ✉ 09:19, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Egg, please troll in English. Otherwise the people may think you are a good sysop. And if you don't know something, it doesn't mean that somebody else is lying. It is not my problem that you are not able to distinguish between far-left Koukal and right-wing Koukal. -- Zacheus 17:45, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
