Articles for deletion nomination of Pat O'Donnell

I have nominated Pat O'Donnell, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Pat O'Donnell. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message.

Image cleanup

There is a copyvio purge going on, well it is not all about copyvios but a general image cleanup trying to save images. Maybe you can help out because while quickly looking through some of the pages I noticed that several of your images have no descriptions and some have broken information templates. Perhaps you can fix them yourself as you know what you uploaded and I am sure you will describe them far better than I. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 17:29, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Now that you are actively editing again could you possibly review your image uploads and add description where they are missing. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 15:52, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Rossport Solidarity Camp

An article that you have been involved in editing, Rossport Solidarity Camp, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Rossport Solidarity Camp. Thank you.

My User and Talk Pages

As mentioned here:- . Nothing has changed since then, I also include my user page in this. Please do not edit either of these. If you wish to engage constructively then please do so on articles talk pages. G~~ain~~Line ♠ _♥ 12:18, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

SEPIL

Well! Can you calm down a bit with the restoration of the SEPIL page (and associated content changes)? It's better to discuss than to be bold, especially when you've already been reverted. Thanks! Fin ©™ 18:00, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

State Sponsored Terror/ArbCom

Hello. Was having a look through your contributions and saw this edit, which I'm fairly sure violates the ArbCom ruling against you. I've given User:PhilKnight a heads up about it, just so you know. Thanks! Fin ©™ 17:02, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Corrib Gas Project

Please have a look at my initial proposed structure for this page if you've time. Thanks Bigdaddy1981 (talk) 01:29, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Your COI and Current Editing relating to Corrib Gas topics

I made a request to you here:- which seems to have gone unanswered. I'm going to repeat it for clarity.

The guidelines on COI suggest that at the very least you "exercise great caution" as opposed to editing aggressively on these (Corrib Gas) topics. From my statement in the medcab case, you are aware of my interests and are in effect calling me a liar. Please cease your continual personal attacks. At this stage, you don't seem to be able to approach this topic objectively so I am asking you to please exempt yourself from editing articles related to this topic

This situation has long gone beyond the point of being disruptive to wikipedia. I am now asking you to please stop editing on this topic as you don't seem to be able to edit with a NPOV. Other editors as well as myself have drawn you attention to your COI, POV and Soapboxing as well as other policy and guidelines and have been repeatedly ignored. Please now stop editing on this topic. G~~ain~~Line ♠ _♥ 16:47, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Shell ireland protest.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Shell ireland protest.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Misplaced Pages:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 02:48, 17 August 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 02:48, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

RFAR Statement

Hiya. Just a reminder that you might want to contribute a statement to the RFAR - myself, Gainline and Steve all have now, and the case is pretty much assured acceptance by the committee (five accepts, one tentative accept - only four are required). Thanks! Fin ©™ 16:00, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

I was just about to post the same thing - we're preparing to open the case, and a statement from you would be much appreciated, especially since a topic ban against you has been proposed. The case is likely to be opened within 24 hours, so please comment as soon as possible. Hersfold 00:22, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Hiya again. Just a note about the comment you made about refuting Gainline's statement, saying you'd get around to it if you had time. I don't want to be telling you what to do or anything, but refuting stuff on ArbCom should probably be fairly high (the highest?) on your editing priorities - if the ArbCom don't hear any comment from you, they'll just work of what we've given them, and that's obviously not going to be in your interest. Anyway, just thought I'd say. Thanks! Fin ©™ 13:22, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Comments

I have made it clear that simple reversion of vandalism is not sufficient for someone to write a self congratulatory piece on the talk page, otherwise talk pages would be full of little else. Talk pages are for discussing how to improve an article. I also think it is pointless discussing anything with you, as you continue to flout WP:COI, with your contributions to the whole Shell to Sea articles. Snappy (talk) 14:36, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

How about you start abiding by WP:COI and stop worrying about Joe Higgins' talk page? Snappy (talk) 16:37, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Is there any point in discussing anything with someone like you? Snappy (talk) 16:41, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Discuss this

IDF photo

Hi, I noticed you added the words 'West Bank' to the caption of the photo of the soldier in the guard tower. Why? As the photo is used in the article, it is to illustrate an Israeli soldier. Why does it matter if he/she is in a guard tower in Jerusalem, Jenin, Hebron or on the Egyptian border?
If you feel that this is a major issue, we can open it up for discussion on the talk page. thanks, Joe407 (talk) 12:34, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

You're welcome

Nice to meet you too. FWIW, I do not have any experience on RFA's, so my advice may be useless, but I think it would be good form for you to leave a statement (it doesn't need to be huge or all-encompassing) on the evidence page here since your opponents seem prepared to argue that your failure to do so is a sign that you don't care and don't take your editing seriously. To reiterate, I have a lack of experience with RFA's, so I don't know if this is typical or not, but it looks to me that the Admins are not going to shape the discussion that is occurring - they are letting both sides state their cases and will then make their conclusions based on the information presented AND (importantly) the behavior of those presenting it.

If you like I can also give you some bits of paternalistic advice, based on my experience navigating the WP minefields. For now I will just say that no editor is without failings, and showing some sincere contrition where appropriate (for example about their charges of EW and PA - mutual as they may have been) would be a healthy and mature thing to do. Based on my reading of the history it does seem clear to me that GainLine started the disagreements and bad faith between between the two of you - his very first edits were some of the ones I cited in the section on his vandalism. His vandalism was on a BLP - which is considered very seriously at WP - and which is probably worthy of restatement. Good luck, Jgui (talk) 17:04, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

As I expected one of the editors left me a note on my talkpage about how recalcitrant you are being, which is apparently an indication of their plan. Although I don't know of any schedule, it does seem that time may be running short. I left the following response -

I think its only fair to note that he has contributed, but he has not yet left a note in the Evidence page, perhaps because he is completely unfamiliar with this rather legalistic process that seems to be completely obscure to a newcomer - for example I know that I had to bookmark the pages I contributed to - since I couldn't otherwise find them. And I'm still not sure what is done next and by whom. Hopefully he will be able to participate soon, since it isn't clear what the deadlines are (if there are any?) Shouldn't someone at least communicate a schedule to the participants in this process? Jgui (talk) 19:51, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

'lo. Again, don't want to be telling you what to do, but you probably shouldn't wait for Steve or the arbitrators to reply before moving on to further rebuttals - delaying might mean you don't get to add your comments on my or Gainline's evidence before the case closes (though I dunno how much advance warning we get of a closing case). Thanks! Fin ©™ 12:18, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Update and g'day

Hello, as of a couple of days ago, I am the drafting arbitrator for the case involving you - what I would really appreciate is some input on this page --> Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Lapsed Pacifist 2/Evidence as to your side of the story (I notice you said you'd replied to steve crossin but I can't now see where (?)). If yes, then point me there and I'll ask some more questions to clarify. I hope to get this case sorted in the next week or so. Casliber (talk · contribs) 05:24, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

analysis by LP here. Steve Crossin 05:37, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

OK, thanks Steve - LP, I will process these and comment - anything else you want to expand/add/or clarify? e.g. the origin of the disputes etc.? I am trying to get a bigger picture of the context too. Casliber (talk · contribs) 05:41, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

PS: I have read that page - you both come across as pretty civil there. One thing though, can you clear up the issue with the images as pointed out elsewhere? You can email me if concerned about privacy issues. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 13:27, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Peadar O'Donnell

Hey LP, good to hear from you again, it's been a while! Does this mean you've been unblocked or whatever?

If you look closely, the paragraph is not talking about the IRA's clash with de Valera but with O'Duffy, teh ACA and teh Blueshirts. Former enemies, no? Jdorney (talk) 09:34, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Text removal

I have removed the text from the Iraq War article because the placement of something so blatant in the lead violates WP:POV and WP:BIAS. Andy120290 (talk) 18:20, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

What I mean is that criticisms for the reasons for the Iraq War belong in a criticism section or something similar. Putting it in the lead of the article shows an anti-war bias that violates Misplaced Pages's neutrality policy. Andy120290 (talk) 21:36, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Capitalism

Hello, glad to see that you're working on Capitalism: A Love Story, too! Just wanted to greet you and say that if you ever want to discuss a particular edit to the article, feel free to do so on the talk page, and I'll respond. Hope you understand my justification for linking to Moore in the article body, but I do agree with your recent edit to de-link the festival link since it appeared earlier. Happy editing! Erik (talk | contribs | wt:film) 13:52, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Félix Rodríguez

I hope that you will revert that last edit. With the way it reads, it appears that he was in some way responsible, when in actuality, it wwas a Bolivian military discision. If you do not agree, please use the talk page to discuss this.--Die4Dixie (talk) 23:12, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Please do not reinsert dictator. His title was president. Use o dictator might be interpretated as an agenda driven action. Thanks.--Die4Dixie (talk) 00:09, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
