I am intermittently inactive.
NOTE: Status is currently intermittent for the foreseeable future. Comments may not be answered in short order. This does not imply the violation of any of the Misplaced Pages policies. I sign on when I can.

My current access to wikipedia is not stable and as such I will not be on much. Misplaced Pages also has grown more closed and biased since my first edits and that saddens me. So Long, and Thanks For All the Fish. J. D. Redding 19:08, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

So Long, and Thanks for the all comments ...


Wikinquisition

Ryan Delaney delivered a wikinquisition notice to me ... the Wikinquisition imposed the following penalties for one year I was limited to one revert per article per week, excepting obvious vandalism (it has been over a year and this no longer applies), I was placed on Misplaced Pages:Probation for one year (which expired a month ago, as I write this), and three administrators, for good cause, may extend a ban or probation in one year increments (irrelevant, because I was never banned and the probation expired ... I didn't even really mess with much of Misplaced Pages because of the effort to suppress ideas and facts).

This is very odd ...

I stopped editing wikipedia articles for the most part ... but I never left my account behind. WTF?!?! I stopped editiing after realzing this was done to suppress my inclusion of facts.

This is a gem Blocked for breaching arbcom ruling by Stifle on 18 May 2006 at 19:17,(UTC). What the F*CK?!?! I wasn't even around and I got Blocked?!?! Misplaced Pages went to sh*t and started jumping the gun with trigger happy sysops/admins/minions ...

I am back now after February 11, 2007. A wikivaction ... and much needed. This bureaucratic BS is tedious, though. J. D. Redding 18:57, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Joshuaschroeder, WMC, etc...

Tell these people to f*ck off! ... these people have worked together in the past to cause wikistress to various people ....

Please stop "moves" of Tesla by copy/pasting

If a page move is needed, the page should be moved by actually moving the page to a new title using the MOVE feature of wikipedia. Please do not try and do page moves by copy/pasting content between different pages since this does not preserve the page history. Please see WP:MOVE, and if you feel the page should be moved, list it at WP:RM. Thanks. --Minderbinder 15:21, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

As you continue to repeat this policy violation and have given no explanation, I have to seek admin intervention. --Minderbinder 15:26, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
Please stop removing the redirect. J. D. Redding
I'm not moving it, I'm restoring the previous version, which has a long page history going back to 2005. As I said above, if the disambig page needs moving to a different title, it should be done with the page move functionality of wikipedia and not by copy/pasting content between pages. Do you understand that or not? And why do you insist on switching these two pages? I see no discussion of it, and you have given no reason. --Minderbinder 15:33, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Please stop removing the redirect.

Put the notes in @ talk:Tesla and Talk:Tesla (disambiguation).

And, plese don't lecture me on policy ... I have been editing here long enough to know what the guidelines and policies are. J. D. Redding 15:35, 7 April 2007 (UTC) PS., be safe and be bold!

If you don't stop moving these pages (even doing it properly, rather than cut-and-pasting), without consensus, you'll be blocked for disruption. There will be no more warnings. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 15:38, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

It was a redirect at times and it should be a redirect. I changed this enough today, but your changing it and should be blocked for disruption if you keep changing it. J. D. Redding

Did you read what Mel said above? --Minderbinder 15:43, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

I thought it was you. Sorry. But that is becuase you place a request for protection. Further comments @ talk:Tesla and Talk:Tesla (disambiguation). J. D. Redding

Unclear block

12:34, 7 April 2007, User:Mel Etitis blocked #456524 (expires 12:34, 8 April 2007, account creation blocked) (Autoblocked because your IP address was recently used by "Reddi". The reason given for Reddi's block is: "persistent mage-move vandalism after warnings; five 24-hour blocks in the past don't seem to have much effect,)

mage-move vandalism? WTF? If redirection and editing is vandalism, people won't be editing ... and ... what the hell is five 24-hour blocks in the past? I been blocked in the past (been months since I been here and even then when I was here and there ... i wasn't blocked in a long time ... well except the one incident when it wasn't me (ala, Stifle on 18 May 2006 at 19:17,(UTC)) ... just some random ip that was assigned to me ... goodness) ... but not in the recent past. jeez ...

This is what makes wikipedia hell ... watch out, you may be next. J. D. Redding 20:39, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
