All good

No problem mate, yeah absolutely excited for Vic's fight, with Alvarez-Cintron, Wlodarczyk-Green, Darchinyan-Moreno, Agbeko-Mares 2, Cotto-Margarito 2, Klitschko-Mormeck and Froch-Ward comming up, i can't remember a end of year program being topped off with so many consistently good fights on a weekly basis, soooo pumped!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aussieswimmer (talkcontribs) 01:17, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Alvarez by TKO I'm really getting the bandwagon with him since his last few fights, Green by decision in a epic war. Darchinyan by a wide points decision, as good as Moreno is, he's struggled with Monshipour and Cermeno so i figure Vic can go one better than them. Mares all the way, Agbeko is tuff but i get a feeling Mares is on the way up and Agbeko is one the way out. I'm pulling for Cotto but i'm worried me may not be able to hold off Margarito's aggression, if he boxes a disciplined fight and only occasional exchanges with him, then he can get revenge. Klitschko maybe gets easiest win of the last 5 years. And Froch-Ward, i keep going back and forth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aussieswimmer (talkcontribs) 03:13, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

== Slight mistake with evander's reign Evander's longest reign (3 years) was actually his 3rd reign. For that title reign he just had wba, ibf, ring, He had the wbc in his first heavyweight reign, If we applied former titles for multiple reigns the table would be a giant unreadable mess. I could put former ibf if that's puts a but more clarity, no hard feelings, just following the way the table was created. god bless — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aussieswimmer (talkcontribs) 02:03, 31 October 2011 (UTC)


September 2011

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Please do not replace pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to Tommy Gunn, as this is confusing to readers. The page's content has been restored for now. If there is a problem with the page, it should be edited or reverted to a previous version if possible; if you think the page should be removed entirely, see further information. Thank you. Kubigula (talk) 22:02, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

I wasn't trying to replace it with blank content, I was trying to make the article about the actual fictional character Tommy Gunn so it didn't have to redirect to Rocky V. Can I still do that? I won't accidently erase the page this time. Sorry about that. TheShadowCrow (talk) 22:11, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

a note

Please refrain from personal attacks even if the other user is blocked and causing trouble.]. If you can't keep your cool, wait for others to revert for what on the face on it are often style changes, avoiding thus the impression that you're personally out to enforce them. Just an example: Here, you're just reverting thus defending a fluffy and poorly sourced statement with an inappropriate edit summery. Thanks.--Tikiwont (talk) 21:23, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

Don't think I'm being tricked. He has been edit warring and harassing you so he stays rightly indefinitely blocked and may indeed be banned permanently if they don't sop socking. I spent also part of my my time here assuring that. Please check out the relevant terms as you're confusing them. I was just curious if I see a glimmer of reason on their side.
Anyways and regardless of the quality of your contributions that I do not want to evaluate, but which we certainly don't measure byte by byte, if they're good others will agree. But your rights to edit do not include that to personal attacks in edit summaries. In short, my post above was referring only to you and only for you as I expect you to do better. The next content or style dispute will come up, some troll will show up or find an free IP or open proxy etc.--Tikiwont (talk) 09:04, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

January 2012

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Juan Manuel Márquez. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. This also applies to comments in the article edit summary. Zarcadia (talk) 00:14, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:325px-LaMotta Joey.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:325px-LaMotta Joey.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Misplaced Pages (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

February 2012

Welcome to Misplaced Pages, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Archie Moore, makes articles harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. You were told before that adding flags to acticles is a violation of MOS:FLAG. Arguing that they exist in other pages is not a justification to violate the MOS. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 02:11, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on Jean Pascal. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Warned previously because of the same. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 02:11, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

No personal attacks

Hey,

I came to thank you for your valuable edits to Vitali Klitschko. And also to remind you that you must avoid any personal attacks on fellow users - such as the unexcusable summary to your recent edit. Happy edits, Ukrained (talk) 21:42, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

I am doing nothing wrong. I am just reverting a vandal's work. He is swearing at me and I haven't back. You should be telling me this and banning him. --TheShadowCrow (talk) 21:45, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
In fact, you're doing everything wrong. You're eagerly returning insults. And, by doing this, you are exaggerating suspicions that your referenced edits are not that neutral;) which I believe are. As for the other guy, he's going to be blocked in a matter of hours as a personal-attacking anon. The only question is: will YOU be as well? Stay cool, Ukrained (talk) 21:55, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
On a somewhat related note, I've issued a rangeblock against that the editor said comment was directed at. They're evading a block on an account on a number of IP addresses, so hopefully this will at least slow them down a bit. Hersfold 21:45, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

Flag Icons

Hi. Could you please read;

Then, if you have any thoughts on my edits you can address them constructively and from an informed position. Thanks. --Escape Orbit 23:42, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

I see that your use of flags has already been pointed out to you as being in violation of the manual of style. Perhaps you could explain why it doesn't apply in these cases? --Escape Orbit 23:46, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
The problem with the flags is that they are distractive icons that shouldn't be used. Of course people will recognize the Flag of the US or Canada, but would you recognize Federated States of Micronesia or Eswatini? The flags are unneeded nationalisms that were forbidden from many infoboxes, and at the Infobox boxer or MMA event should apply as well. The "other article has it" argument is vague, it is in another article because somebody believe that it was correct as s/he saw it in another article. A common example is the "see release history" link that appears in many musical-related articles. WP:IBX states that these internal links shouldn't be used as the WP:TOC exists. The real thing to do is reach a consensus to remove all flags from infoboxes, as boxers aren't national teams or countries, where the flags are more relevant. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 00:59, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
It is not that bad. but neither that OK. The real place where you should be discussing this is either WT:MOS or Template talk:Infobox boxer. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 01:27, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Edit warring adn attacks

You've been warned above again on personal attacks but you also need to refrain form edit warring: An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Ukboxen edits are not exempt because they are not banned but blocked indefinitely and you still revert before accounts are blocked and tagged accordingly. I think I asked you to review WP:BLOCK, WP:BAN and WP:3rr in the past, in any case do so now.

The exceptions would be actions performed by banned users, their sockpuppets and by tagged sockpuppets of indefinitely blocked. This needs to be interpreted in your case narrowly as you feed the fire with your own attacks, underline repeatedly that you haven't been blocked yet and revert other users as well. Here you revert as with the exception of the flagicon....

In other word, you should not claim exceptions from the three revert rule unless a third party has tagged that account, in which case they will often block and revert. If you continue to do multiple reverts yourself or leash out with attacks before reporting the issue to the relevant boards, you are part of the problem and next time you'll be blocked.

A lot of activity has been gone into keeping that guy off the pages and your back, and I understand that it is frustrating but the page histories for some boxers are now a disgrace, so yes, this is a final warning for you: Do not edit war, do not issue any other attack. Don't even call content edits by a blocked user vandalism. If you can't do that move them from your watch list. Thanks --Tikiwont (talk) 20:48, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for Edit warring with and personal attacks on good-faith editor after final warning as you did at Lennox Lewis. There was even an invitation to the talk page. I also note that you didn't react to above friendly post doing another edit afterwards. As you know, I'm aware of the harassment, but stuff like this must not happen. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked earlier, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

The Klitschko's

Well, Vitali is gonna retire this year, so i only think he has one or two fights left. So I dont see the sense in making sections all the time. His career is ending soon, so i think it is right to make a final section, just like on Mike Tyson's & and Lennox Lewis' articles.

IF Wladimir wins the WBC, then I agree we have to make an new section called Unidsputed Heavyweight Champion. But his fights in 2012 are not going to be any significant. Fight against Mormeck, rematch vs. Tony Thompsons and then maybe Arreola?. Well I think it is best it just called After Haye. Because it really tells what happened after his fight with Haye.

Cheers David-golota David-golota (talk) 18:45, 22 March 2012 (UTC)



Well yeah, but just because other P4p boxers have many more sections, dosent make the article look better, only worse.

Look at Mike Tyson article. He dosent have so many articles and is clearly the most infamous boxer ever.

I think it only makes the articles looks worse and ugly with so many sections.

Look at the Sosnowski and Johnso sections. They are so short. It looks stupid.

The Manual of Style has guidelines against many of the links you are adding. See: WP:Overlink, specifically:"Generally, a link should appear only once in an article" and "Avoid linking the names of major ... locations."

There are also problems with link specificity (see WP:SPECIFICLINK) and unnecessary use of piped links.

Haye

David Haye fills alot. Very much. He brought the exciment and attention back to the heavyweight divison. Media hype and all the old great stuff back. He is Wladimirs rival. And Wladimir never really had an rival like Ali or Tyson had. That is why Haye is so "important".

"He was the first heavyweight boxer to simultaneously hold and only Heavyweight to individually unify the WBA, WBC and IBF titles."

Why do you have one use of the word "heavyweight" in lowercase and the other capitalized in the same sentence? For a casual reader like me, this just looks odd. -- James26 (talk) 00:39, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Sure thing. Thanks. -- James26 (talk) 01:38, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Andre Ward

Dear User:TheShadowCrow, please see the comments I have added on the Talk:Andre Ward page. I'm not targeting anyone's edits in particular, and certainly not yours. You are welcome to add sources to verify your assessments. But without references, it often happens that opinions and descriptive comments fall short of WP:BLP guidelines. In my view (and I'm only one person and I may be wrong) some of this page did that. Please let me quote from those guidelines:

This page in a nutshell: Material about living persons added to any Misplaced Pages page must be written with the greatest care and attention to verifiability, neutrality, and avoidance of original research.

If you really want to replace all that commenary, I assure you I won't delete it again. I've never been in an edit war, and I don't want one now. I just encourage the full referencing of articles. By the way, if you were referring to my edits, I can assure you that the lineal stuff is not mine. Regards.GorgeCustersSabre (talk) 15:37, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi again. The fact that I put "back" then lineal stuff that you hated so much does not mean that I agreed with it either. You and I are not the only editors on that page. Someone else clearly wanted to add that lineal section. As I said above, I don't intend to get into edit wars even with people who make pages worse or violate Misplaced Pages guidelines. Best wishes.GorgeCustersSabre (talk) 14:18, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

AA2

Please be aware of Requests for arbitration/Armenia-Azerbaijan 2 before making further reverts. Thanks. Grandmaster 18:37, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

The same is for you, Grandmaster. You're an active part of that editwarring. Gazifikator (talk) 19:02, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
The next time you chose to edit war (as you have been doing at Armenians in Azerbaijan), please kindly bother to use the talkpage to discuss the issue with other editors. Communicating through edit summaries is hardly efficient. If not, I'll have to start enforcing such discussion with revert paroles and blocks. Thank you. Moreschi (talk) 14:57, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Azerbaijanis in Armenia

The information about elderly and ill people of Azeri origin living in Armenia is not something I made up. It is contained in the report of the European Country of Origin Information Network, which reference is provided in the introduction of the article. Parishan (talk) 14:24, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Another editor reverted your edits and made a personal attack against you. I have warned them not to do it again. --Jprg1966  15:19, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

You are certainly welcomed to add in those statements if you have reliable sources to back them up. Please review WP:RS. Otherwise, it's just original research and POV. As a result, I have removed them. BearMan998 (talk) 17:40, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

I undid your edits once again since you failed to take note of the above. I see that you made those edits prior to the below ban so I'll assume this won't happen again. If this occurs again, I won't hesitate to report this as it's now clear that your actions are not in good faith and are in clear disregard to established policy.

Persistent violations of WP:BLP and WP:NOTAFORUM

It appears you have had many warnings for inappropriate additions to biographies of living persons (BLP) articles. Please review the Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living persons policy in full, which includes the clear statement that adding unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material is forbidden. This addition was inappropriate for that reason and other reasons I gave here. You have however restored the content with an inappropriate and unhelpful edit summary. I am now removing it again - any re-adding of this content or other blatant BLP policy violations will result in the blocking of this account. Consider this your final warning.

Furthermore, it appears that you have been mass creating talk page threads which are not for discussion on improving the article in violation of WP:NOTAFORUM, such as this. If you review WP:NOT you will find that Misplaced Pages is not a venue for advocacy or testing free speech. Use of Misplaced Pages in this way is disruptive editing and any further (re-)creations of such threads will also result in a block. CT Cooper · talk 20:44, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

It seems pretty clear to me that you have ignored the warning I gave you about following WP:BLP policy when editing BLP articles, as two recent examples demonstrate well:

Given the above edits, your earlier warnings, and the final warning above, I think it is fair to conclude that a block is needed here, therefore:

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for persistent violations of the biographies of living persons policy. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. CT Cooper · talk 18:29, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

I seriously considered using WP:BLPSE to restrict your ability to edit BLP articles, but I determined that a block was sufficient for now. This will be reviewed if there any further problems after the block expires. CT Cooper · talk 18:29, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

WP:AE

Hi. Please be aware of this report at WP:AE: . Thanks. Grandmaster 19:08, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

AE

See this for the result of the AE thread. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 03:36, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

If you seriously can't see the problem with the now-deleted edit at Teimour Radjabov, or how it relates to AA, I feel further vindicated. And if you reread your ban, it's all articles and discussions relating to AA. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 21:54, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
If you want to appeal, there are instructions at the top of AE, so you can go that route if you like. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 00:40, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
It's in the big red header at the top, last paragraph. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 18:26, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Further WP:BLP violations

In less than 24 hours after the block expired, and already I am finding issues with your edits to BLPs:

  • You added some content to Victor Ortiz relating to drugs without properly citing it, as far as I can see drugs is not mentioned in the source provided and there is no source for the quote either. It should have occurred to you that anything relating to drugs is contentious, and a source must be provided, particular if you include a quote.
  • On Gago Drago, you added content without making any attempt to source it, despite being required by WP:BLP/WP:V. Given that this was non-contentious and there was already a lot of unsourced information, which might make it look okay, I am letting this one go.

This is the only post-block warning that you are going to receive for violations of WP:BLP policy. I will say now now that any further edits like that observed on Victor Ortiz, then I will be utilising WP:BLPSE to disallow you from editing BLPs, either indefinitely or for a significant period of time. This may or may not extend to talk pages depending on the circumstances. I am coming to the conclusion given the above and your comments at User talk:The Blade of the Northern Lights that you simply don't "get it" in regards to BLP policy, and while this would be a broad ban, it would be justified.

On the AA ban you have received, I should point out that you have had more than one "offence" on these articles, with Cenk Uygur being an example. You claim it has not been clearly explained to you what rule you have broken on Teimour Radjabov. I actually gave you lengthy explanations on what you were doing wrong on that and other things, but I'm not going to spoon feed you policy - you should read the policies cited to you and from that understand what you are doing wrong. The main problem you seem to have is that you repeatedly add content and make contentious statements which is not supported by the sources, and is frequently just your own personal opinion - just reading the first few paragraph on the WP:BLP policy says not to do that, so I'm not buying that excuse and I doubt those who review any appeal will either. It is basic policy on this project that you source content (WP:V) and don't use articles to advocate your own views (WP:NOR/WP:NPOV), and these rules just become more important on BLPs.
