Throwing accusations around

You jumped in and told me "Calm down. Misplaced Pages does not allow you to simply throw around accusations anywhere and for any reason you please, and you can only harm the site if you're going to jump into debates to 'save the day'. --InShaneee 03:06, 14 December 2006 (UTC) But this is exactly what happens when Tajik is accused of anything, others are required to support their accusations, but administrators allow unsupported accusations against those accusing Tajik of anything. Here, for example, E104421 accuses Tajik of something, provides diffs and evidence, but another user who is a friend of Tajik's jumps in, just like they did against me, and accuses E104421 of stalking Tajik, with no diffs, no support, nothing, just throwing accusations around. As I said, when I provided diffs, when I supported my accusations, I was ignored by administrators, as is currently happening on WP:PAIN, and I was attacked by Tajik's supporters throwing around accusations anywhere and for any reason against anyone who asks for civil behaviour on the part of Tajik. And, again, administrators simply ignore supported accusations against Tajik--and seem to allow, and by allowing, encourage unsupported accusations against anyone who asks for civility from Tajik. This is exactly what happened to me, I provided evidence, I supported my accusations, I made a proper complaint, but Tajik simply uses a handy administrator, has friends accuse anyone who edits the same page as he does of stalking, and gets away with it time and again--Misplaced Pages does indeed allow editors, certain editors, to "simply throw around accusations anywhere and for any reason." The user who posted this stalking accusation against E104421 hasn't been told he's not allowed to throw around accusations, because it appears he is allowed to--in fact, anyone supporting Tajik is allowed to throw around accusations on Misplaced Pages.

Spiritualism rating

Hello InShanee. Please take a look at the talk pages on Spiritualism before replacing the rating again. Thanks Anthon.Eff 04:37, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

And while we're at it, please also leave some knowledgable comments at the talk page for Reincarnation Research, as well, since you have chosen to provide the rating. Thanks Anthon.Eff 04:43, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Take a look at the Talk:Spiritualism page for my response. If comments are not forthcoming in a few days, I will remove the paranormal banner, since so far it has just attracted editors who know almost nothing about the history of this religious movement. Anthon.Eff 05:27, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

You do not have the right to do so, and you will treat other editors with respect. --InShaneee 05:29, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

I left you one further response on Talk:Spiritualism, InShaneee. Anthon.Eff 05:36, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Actually, no need to tag the article, go ahead and delete it. I put the delete tag on a couple of weeks ago, outraged at the slur on my country, and then thought, what the heck, keep it, rewritten to inform people that the supposed traffic control policy was simply a satirical public relations campaign. You're the administrator, delete it. Anthon.Eff 01:47, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

FYI

Just thought I should let you know about this discussion that concerns you. Regards, Newyorkbrad 03:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello, InShaneee. As the blocking admin in this case, I'd like to request that you comment further in this post and this post, in order to clear up any confusion. Thank you. -Severa (!!!) 22:07, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Your edits to OGame (3RR)

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. Happy New Year Cocoaguy_contribs 03:15, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Block

You blocked me for 24 hours, stating as a reason 'vandalism'. Care to explain what I vandalised and when? Care to offer a reason why I shouldn't think it was an incredibly petty block because I removed your 'paranormal' tag from Red rain in Kerala? Suggest you read Misplaced Pages:Vandalism, and also the bit in Misplaced Pages:Blocking policy about how admins are not allowed to block people they're having a content dispute with. 81.178.208.69 23:37, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

InShaneee, you should be aware that there is discussion on this block on the noticeboard here. Newyorkbrad 00:07, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Are you unable or unwilling to offer any justification of your actions? 81.178.208.69 23:37, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Do you not think an administrator is obliged to explain his actions? If you won't offer any reason at all why you shat on the blocking policy when you blocked me, I'll have to see about an rfc or rfa. 81.178.208.69 22:48, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

You really shouldn't be an admin if you're not prepared to justify your use of the tools. 81.178.208.69 01:29, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages Week

The best existing proposal I can, in my own limited way, think of for the previously discussed "appreciation week" can now be found at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week#Misplaced Pages Week. Any comments or responses would be more than welcome. Badbilltucker 15:14, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

User ignoring policy

Hi InShaneee, got a little situation going on, there’s been a dispute between four editors about the redirect of an article which had its contents moved to several other articles – the original article, now empty, had to be preserved for the 2 year old edit history.

• Result of AfD
• Redirection of Wizard (fantasy)
• Redirect discussion continued

One editor (User:Jc37) believed the redirect should go to a “lists” or “disambiguation” page, while the other three thought the article should be redirected to the main name article where the most relevant content was moved to.

In the middle of the dispute, the one editor (User:Jc37) took pre-emptive action to move the old redirect article under dispute to a new article, then created a new article with the old name.

He did this over the objections of one of the disputing editors, (User:Goldfritha) and during a holiday Wikibreak of another disputing editor (me!). This completely contrary to spirit of the AfD findings, the talk page discussion on the redirect, and bypasses the entire dispute resolution process.

The original article was Wizard (fantasy), which was moved to List of wizards in fantasy, which is one of the articles we asked that it not be redirected to! Then he created a brand-new Wizard (fantasy) article with no edit history .

I’d like to see User:Jc37 warned, so he doesn’t ignore the dispute resolution process again, and if possible have the changes he made reversed until we all come to a final decision.

Thanks! Dreadlocke ☥ 17:33, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

I've been off Misplaced Pages for a few days due to illness, and I'm not sure if anything was done about this, or if anything should. Can you let me know? Dreadlocke ☥ 19:29, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the response, unfortunately the ANI entry was removed because it was not responded to within the two-day limit. Should we put it back up there, or can you assist? Dreadlocke ☥ 21:36, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

There's a new one up elsewhere: WP:AN#Request_for_advice. --InShaneee 21:38, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Oy, it's everywhere! I was actually attempting to escalate above a request for advice on this issue and get admin involvement. Dreadlocke ☥ 21:43, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Should I go ahead and place my request to you on the ANI page? I don't think jc37's request on the "request for advice" page is suitable for what I'm complaining about. Dreadlocke ☥ 23:33, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Is it suitable for us to comment on jc37's "request"? Goldfritha 01:13, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I went ahead and put my request on the ANI notice board. Let me know if there's any other place I should put it. Dreadlocke ☥ 01:56, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I think....

...that you could do with a cucumber :o) Guy (Help!) 20:14, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

A cucumber doesn't help to teach him that wheel warring is bad, for instance. Or blocking when involved in a dispute. Or blocking for removing HIS template from a page and calling it vandalism. The user has probably violated more policies than I have. - A Link to the Past (talk) 20:21, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

If you continue to violate WP:STALK, ALTTP, you will be forceably stopped from doing so. Hipocrite - «Talk» 15:11, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Attempt to resolve dispute

So are you going to apologise for calling me a douche? Hypnosadist 14:42, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Here, allow me - InShaneee apologizes for any offense you may have taken at any remarks he/she may have made. He/she requests that you begin following wikipedia policies, specifically, WP:STALK and WP:CIVIL, and pledges to do the same. If your stalking behavior, Hypno, over a 3 month old block continues, more eyes are going to start looking at you, and you will not appreciate the attention - stop now. Hipocrite - «Talk» 15:10, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Apology accepted! Lets move on and leave this behind us (RL can make me snappy too). Hypnosadist 00:56, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

My Request for Adminship

Thank you for your support in my my RfA, which passed with a tally of 117/0/1. I hope that my conduct as an admin lives up to the somewhat flattering confidence the community has shown in me. I hope that my outside view on Talk:Committee for Skeptical Inquiry helped resolve the dispute there, as well as providing me with some experience in mediation; a skill I'm likely to need as an admin. Please don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page should you need anything or want to discuss something with me.--Nilfanion (talk) 22:51, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Personal attack

This is another in a series of personal attacks and uncivil conduct by this user. Another editor blanked the comment, but I think this user needs to be warned. Dreadlocke ☥ 00:39, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
