Franklin child prostitution ring allegations
It's now been over a year since you indefinitely fully protected Franklin child prostitution ring allegations. Do you think it can be unprotected now? Jackmcbarn (talk) 21:15, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, certainly.
Unprotected. I'll keep it watchlisted though. NW (Talk) 22:37, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
Sarah Palin
To set the record straight, the topic ban 3.5 years ago is because many reliable sources say that Palin's death panel remarks didn't quite fact-check, and you apparently think they do, based on zero references that you chose to mention in those 3.5 years. If you believe in death panels that much, you have a right to your opinion. You don't have a right to intimidate, threaten and censor, regardless of how strongly you feel. Editors such as yourself used mass censorship for years to portray Palin as never having said a single word about death panels. Now you allow that she said two words about death panels, and said much more about foreign policy.
I don't expect anything I say to change what you say or do, just setting the record straight about what we both know about the honesty of your opinions.Jimmuldrow (talk) 18:10, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
- Well, you're right that I'm not going to change anything I say or do based on this comment. NW (Talk) 19:28, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Reccomendations
I put this on the users page but it was reverted so I'll just diff it here in case you didn't see ]. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 22:30, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
Hey, NW, you around? I'm pretty sure this isn't sockpuppetry/meatpuppetry, for reasons I outline at the SPI. I saw you say, at Alakzi's talk page: "For the record, I am perfectly comfortable with another administrator reversing this block if they feel the behavioral evidence isn't strong enough." But if you're around I'd like to discuss for a minute or two first. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:09, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
- I'm on mobile for the next few hours but should be on my laptop again soon after. If we can't connect in four hours go ahead and unblock. NW (Talk) 23:25, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not going to be around in 4 hours - need my beauty sleep - so we won't be able to connect then. I'd love to try to straighten this out before then, as I'm probably off-wiki much of tomorrow. Let me see what Mike V says from his CU, but I'm probably going to unblock unless there's a surprise. If I end up wrong you can laugh and point at me and I'll owe you a beer. OK? --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:30, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
- Also, won't be a straight unblock for Alakzi, will talk first, as he/she does seem to have gone over the edge a little. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:31, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah, looking at it a little more I can totally see how I misinterpreted the evidence to see what I was expecting to see. I was very unhappy with the rape comparison and made my interpretation of the editing histories fit what I expected. Your explanation is a lot more rational than mine. Feel free to work it out and then unblock. I'm still on mobile and I'm not fully clear what I'm next going to be on Misplaced Pages. NW (Talk) 02:46, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi NW, Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Alakzi just came to my attention and I felt obliged to comment, although I'm quite short on time at the moment. I've participated, briefly, in the move discussion that started all of the current drama, and am familiar with the users involved. I was surprised to see an SPI started (by the author of the essay in question, who was going to essentially get his way on the matter in any case), not very surprised to see the discussion there escalate, and shocked to see a WP:NOTHERE block of a productive editor who is obviously feeling distressed, frustrated, and railroaded by the way he has been treated recently. Yes, the comments at the SPI are over the top, but to call someone who's been a productive member of the community for months "not here" because he made inappropriate comments in a frustrating situation is entirely wrong, and does not seem to have come from a thorough understanding of the context. (For one thing, just look at the history of the article the two users collaborated on - the sock thing is clearly specious.)
Honestly, this is the first situation I've encountered since returning to Misplaced Pages this past January in which I felt this uncomfortable with the way another user was treated. If I had the time right now to manage the resulting potential drama I may well have unblocked already. (edit conflict) after getting distracted IRL with this window open for while Oh, I'm glad to see others have stopped by with similar comments; I should be around 4-6 hours from now and will follow up then if things haven't been sorted out.

Response to all
I apologize for the mess that's been made. I'm back home now (though about to go to bed) and have had a chance to review everything in a little more detail. I think that Dirtlawyer is right: I definitely overreacted to that post; read Alakzi not trying to get involved further as being sneaky and evasive; read the edit war over WP:ROPE as something that only a troll would do. Someone mentioned that it reminded them of a now-banned and un-CheckUserable individual acted—I had been thinking exactly that. All the warning signs after that seemed like they were pointing in the same direction. It appears that I was very wrong, and I wanted to apologize for the overly hasty administrative block, User:Alkazi.
To whomever asked about the block length: even absent the sockpuppetry suspicion, the block would have been of indefinite duration as per Misplaced Pages:Blocking policy#Indefinite blocks. NW (Talk) 03:29, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
