RfA clerking

I am currently drafting a clerking proposal because the clerking proposal on WP:RFA2015 is informal and vaguely defined. I do not want to open a multi-phase RfC just to confirm past consensus, so you know of any other major attempts at proposing clerking or similar system at RfA other than Misplaced Pages:Requests for adminship/Clerks? Thanks, Esquivalience 03:25, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Absolutely, Esquivalience, why re-invent the wheel. Change its tyres thoughby all means. There is a perfectly good stand-alone clerking proposal at Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for adminship/Clerks. It didn't get consensus because people do not want RfA to become an area where they can no longer misbehave with impunity. Like all attempts at RfA improvement, any new initiatives will probably fail for the same reasons. I would nevertheless give them my 100% support. Incremental changes like these, if made, are none--Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:31, 1 December 2015 (UTC)theless likely to gain more traction as a stand-alone proposal rather than long winded RfAs that try to treat many issues at the same time. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:31, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Help

Please take a look at Newton Public Schools. There is an ongoing dispute between several editors, one of whom is pushing hard on a POV and is to put it mildly, very verbose. Please help if you can. Thanks. John from Idegon (talk) 18:38, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Done. See talk page, John. Perhaps you would like to organise the RfC. I won't take part in it because I'm now involved as the protecting admin, but I'll keep an eye on it and warn anyone who tries to monopolise it. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 19:13, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

I have never done an RfC, but at this point, the talk page is so trashed I cannot even tell who said what, much less when. Its almost like politics! John from Idegon (talk) 11:20, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

No clue what youre talking about. There is a panel of scientists involved in bosnian pyramids.

Moreover based on the predictions of this theory, he developed an alternative cosmology that effectively replaces the big bang theory. In fact, in 1986, he was the first to cast doubt on the big bang theory by showing that it makes a far poorer fit to existing astronomical data when compared to this new non-expanding universe cosmology. The subquantum kinetics cosmology also led him to make successful predictions about galaxy evolution that were later verified with the Hubble Space Telescope. Dr. LaViolette is credited with the discovery of the planetary-stellar mass-luminosity relation which demonstrates that the Sun, planets, stars, and supernova explosions are powered by spontaneous energy creation through photon blueshifting. With this relation, he successfully predicted the mass-luminosity ratio of the first brown dwarf to be discovered.More recently, his maser signal blueshifting prediction has found confirmation following publication of the discovery of a blueshift in the Pioneer 10 spacecraft tracking data. Dr. LaViolette is the first to predict that high intensity volleys of cosmic ray particles travel directly to our planet from distant sources in our Galaxy, a phenomenon now confirmed by scientific data. He is also the first to discover high concentrations of cosmic dust in Ice Age polar ice, indicating the occurrence of a global cosmic catastrophe in ancient times.Based on this work, he made predictions about the entry of interstellar dust into the solar system ten years before its confirmation in 1993 by data from the Ulysses spacecraft and by radar observations from New Zealand. He also originated the glacier wave flood theory that not only provides a reasonable scientific explanation for widespread continental floods, but also presents a credible explanation for the sudden freezing of the arctic mammoths and demise of the Pleistocene mammals.

He is the developer of subquantum kinetics, a novel approach to microphysics that not only accounts for electric, magnetic, gravitational, and nuclear forces in a unified manner,

Warning and complaint over disrespectful user

Kudpung,

In a shocking and unbelievable move, you have given my IP a warning for "blatantly harassing" another user. Funny thing is, I was respectfully calling out User talk:John from Idegon for blatantly harassing me and another Wikipedian. He called me an "east coast elistic prick", and said he didn't give a "flying fuck" about the town of another editor, and he gets off scot-free while you have occupied yourself with issuing my IP a warning for "blatant harassment". I challenge you to materialize once instance of "harassment" on my part - you will find only my responses to being harassed by an internet troll. Please tell me Kudpung - are you disgraced by your punitive act against a victim of an ad-hominem verbal attack, while unthinkably ignoring the guilty perpetrator of harassment? If you do not extend this same warning to him, you will have confirmed your utterly inconsistent, unjust, and disparate treatment of Wiki users based on contribution history. Kudpung - can you find one instance of use of profanity by my IP in my respectful and humane discourse? Yet I get warned, after being called an "elitist prick" whose town the troll in question " give a flying fuck"? Your behavior has shocked me into understanding the true degree of hegemonic arrogance which apparently pervades Misplaced Pages's administrators.

Kudpung - I eagerly await to hear your justification for vilifying a victim of profane verbal attacks launched by an established editor, nepotistically ignoring a flagrant and obvious verbal abuser, and attacking a newcomer to Misplaced Pages who is now certain never to contribute. 73.219.217.243 (talk) 13:39, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

This is ridiculous. I have replied on your talk page with a final warning.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 14:22, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Kudpung - I did see the thoughtless invective you launched against me on my page, and I left you with a request to explain your perplexing behaviour: falsely accusing an innocent recipient of having given "abusive diatribes" when in fact all of my language has been respectful and I have been called an "elitist prick" by your troll editor-friend "John from Idegon". I eagerly await to hear your justification for such insanity - attacking the passive and innocent victim of such profane verbal attacks, of which your warning shockingly suggests I am a perpetrator rather than a victim. In doing so I hope you will start to use factual quotes as I have, instead of continued false accusations to appease your friend, flying in the face of all reason and civility. Thanks. 73.219.217.243 (talk) 02:32, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Good faith is assumed only until its absence is proven

Hey thanks for the Twinkle, it was really thoughtful, appropriate and useful! I read it extremely carefully, including the links therein. I'm really ever so sorry if I broke the !rules (how exactly?), but you know what, when someone keeps disparaging you by asserting falsities without providing one single diff as supporting shred of evidence, despite your insistent requests, well maybe at that point you would lose your good faith too towards that editor. Wouldn't you? All the best. 87.112.180.82 (talk) 21:54, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

That "nice catch" comment on Future Perfect at Sunset's talkpage is harmless, I suppose, as it doesn't actually allege anything but the above advice is sage - asserting falsities without providing one single diff as supporting shred of evidence does have the effect that maybe at that point you would lose your good faith towards that editor. 62.140.210.135 (talk) 16:21, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Vandalism

Hi Kudpung, I loaded up another article in my "Great Escapers" series Harold Milford and while tidying it up within 2 or 3 minutes of initial upload (within the last 10 minutes) some Vandal has been in and wiped it out. Please can you recover anything from my first upload ? Thanks for any help. Incidentally I seem to have been nominated for an award which is very nice. R44Researcher1944 (talk) 12:23, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Many thanks, I routinely add it and I'll put it back on again, I think that they hit that literally as I was saving it. R44Researcher1944 (talk) 16:30, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Canvassing

Hi, I can see you raised the issue of WP:CANVASS here with Cunard but this appears to be continuing. Firstly, DGG rightly declined to comment from this request after intervening. Secondly, I am sure this was done good faith by SwisterTwister here and here but as the AfDs have been listed on the relevant projects I am of the opinion that it should be left for editors to find out about the AfD themselves without any notification. Tanbircdq (talk) 19:05, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Considering that the people whom SwisterTwister notifies often or even usually take opposite views from each other, I think it's done fairly. DGG ( talk ) 19:24, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

(edit conflict):It looks as if I as wrong to have raised it. According to DGG it appears to be a legitimate form of notification and DGG has far more experience in such matters than I. It depends who is pinged. Canvassing to support an opinion is not allowed, but getting more expert eyes on a situation from established editors to ensure that policy is upheld and that an AfD is closed accordingly makes sense to me. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 19:33, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

This came up a few days ago on ANI, I believe. I also think that SisterTwister is notifying fairly--I think they typically look through the list of contributors to AfDs and article histories, and in this case just called in the cavalry, meaning those with particular experience in a particular area. Remember, Kudpung, when we were young and we had to do AfD all by ourselves, including the notifications? The conscientious editor would typically drop three or more notification templates to different editors. Also, I'm sorry you didn't get in, old friend. Drmies (talk) 05:25, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Don't worry about me not getting in, Drmies, the main thing is you did. I'll work a bit harder in the slums instead to give you a break for what's coming to you at Arbcom. Look after DGG there for me too, he's a very special friend and like you he's not afraid to tell me if I'm climbing up the wrong drainpipe. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:21, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

MurderByDeadcopy

MurderByDeadcopy kind of reminds me of User:750editsstrong and other accounts used by that person. That users posted this manifesto at five or six pages, eventually getting blocked for disruptive editing under suspicion of being a banned editor. 750edits had an obsession with Misplaced Pages:Newbie treatment at Criteria for speedy deletion and murder's post at User talk:Pam120, a one-time editor (and now I wonder if a sockpuppet) complaining about mistreatment from established editors, is real suspicious. If you look at murder's talk page, their barnstar is from a 10-edits account that also seems focused on inclusionism, suggesting that there are more accounts like this out there. What do you think? Oiyarbepsy (talk) 13:02, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Yes, there is a similarity with this and it's almost certain they are still editing, but we get a lot of this kind of thing. Every complaint about MurderByDeadcopy's editing is perfectly justified. I'm sure you've seen plenty of newbies who just don't get it right, don't listen to advice, and then wonder why they get yelled at. As a teacher I've seen it a million times in school of course. As a Misplaced Pages editor I've made 76,000 edits and never gotten a singe complaint about my editing so if I can do it, theoretically, so can everyone else. I get complaints about my snark of course, but that's because I answer bullshit with with a bullwhip. Yes, I had already noticed there was something not quite koscher going on, but nothing egregious enough to justify a CU. So do keep an eye on them but let's not get paranoid just yet - I've got a lot of work waiting for me in the slums now that Drmies has left us to take up his crown and gown in the Ministry of Justice ;) Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 14:46, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

That Adam article looks familiar, but I can't find myself in the history, and I didn't delete it or block that editor. I wonder if I saw a post on ANI or something like that. Is there an SPI? Someone should run CU. Those screeds are tiresome, tiresome. Drmies (talk) 15:46, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Deleted edits?

Hello Kudpung! Is there any rule against an editor requesting to view their own deleted edits from Special:DeletedContributions from an Admin? There doesn't seem to be, based on what I'm seeing at Misplaced Pages:Viewing and restoring deleted pages#Viewing a user's deleted edits. I figured I'd ask you, based on your previous participation at Misplaced Pages:Editor review/deletion edits review. I'd like to try and recreate my CSD log, but Hammersoft at WT:RfA brings up a good point that it'll be impossible for me to do that unless I can review my deleted edits... Anyway, thanks in advance. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:01, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

IJBall, there are no rules on Misplaced Pages against requesting anything. Whether or not the request gets fulfilled is another thing. You can see a list of your deleted edits here. If there is a specific page you would like to see, let me know with its full, redlinked title. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 21:23, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Non-Admins can't see the contents of the page you linked to.

I probably only need to see the edit summaries to figure out which pages I {{db-move}}d. So, I guess I'd liked to request that contents of that list – I enabled E-mail on my end a while ago, if the contents of those edit summaries are supposed to be kept private. Thanks! --IJBall (contribs • talk) 21:32, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Use of the mop is an admin's discretion. There is no rule on Misplaced Pages that an admin must block anyone. I will not be blocking in this instance. IF you want to throw you weight around, run for RfA.--Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 21:08, 13 December 2015 (UTC).
