reverted two of your edits
I reverted your two edits on the Roman Polanski article. In case you don't notice the talk page, this is why. He plead guilty to having sex with a minor, which is normally called statutory rape, so that category is appropriate. Different states have different names for it, but its all the same thing. Another one of your edits done at the same time, broke one paragraph apart mid-sentence. So I reverted them.  D r e a m Focus  16:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Good news and bad news. Bad news is I'm wary about releasing a checkuserblock .  Good news is I would be willing to give you an IP block exemption.  Bad news is the interface isn't working for me, I think because of the @hotmail.com in your username.  If someone else can figure out how to get around it, I'm willing to support it...otherwise you may just have to not use the library resources when you go to edit. :/ Syrthiss (talk) 19:19, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Same here. It interprets the @ as the user being on another project, and it gives the error that you may not edit user rights for them. "You do not have permission to edit user rights on other wikis."  Enigma msg  20:26, 4 November 2009 (UTC)


 * There is a small chance it will accept "%40" or "&amp;#64;" as a substitute for "@", but I have no easy way to test it. Most likely though, there isn't a workaround.  Dragons flight (talk) 21:57, 4 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually there is another option, user rights can be assigned using "#12345" where "12345" is a user's ID number. Rms, you can find this number on your user preferences page.  That should definitely work if you provide the ID number.  Dragons flight (talk) 22:00, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Using this link, I have granted him IPBE. NW ( Talk ) 23:43, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

IPBE
I have granted your account an exemption from IP blocking. This will allow you to edit through full blocks affecting your IP address when you are logged in.

Please read the page IP block exemption carefully, especially the section on IP block exemption conditions.

Note in particular that you are not permitted to use this newly-granted right to edit Wikipedia via anonymous proxies, or disruptively. If you do, or there is a serious concern of abuse, then the right may be removed by any administrator.

Appropriate usage and compliance with the policy may be checked periodically, due to the nature of block exemption, and block exemption will be removed when no longer needed (for example, when the block it is related to expires).

I hope this will enhance your editing, and allow you to edit successfully and without disruption. NW ( Talk ) 23:42, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I just tried to do it through the form, and saw NW beat me it. :)  Enigma msg  00:43, 5 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Never thought I'd see the day when RMS got an admin privilege on Wikipedia! Oh how the times have changed :) Nice to see you on here still, Robert, working away. As it happens, I'm back here myself now, so if you need anything - just let me know!! - A l is o n  ❤ 09:03, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Recent deaths
Please don't put hidden messages in death notices like this. Use the edit summary instead. Thanks, WWGB (talk) 06:11, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

Holt McCallany
Is this latest edit on Holt McCallany's page the kind you wanted me to watch for? All Hallow&#39;s Wraith (talk) 21:37, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Buck Alec
Hi Robert, I've added some more references to the Alexander Robinson article. Hope to add a few more soon, mostly old newspaper stuff. Regarding the weasel wording tag you placed on the article, could you let me know what exact sentences need work? Cheers. Stu  ’Bout ye!  15:46, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Dunmanway killings
It's not helpful to move this without discussion. Please jump through the hoops listed at Requested moves. Thanks, Angus McLellan (Talk) 02:30, 3 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Many thanks for that. Angus McLellan (Talk) 10:07, 3 December 2009 (UTC)


 * It's best to avoid accusations of bias and to treat each article on its own merit. If, for example, Arnon Street Massacre wants moving to something more neutral, such as Arnon Street affair or Arnon Street killings, that's better discussed in a separate move request. Regards, Angus McLellan (Talk) 12:15, 3 December 2009 (UTC)


 * The recent name change by Sarah was made without a fragment of discussion so why does this return to the original arouse concern? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fynire (talk • contribs) 18:35, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

These sort of comments are not helpful. Please don't repeat this. Thanks, Angus McLellan (Talk) 00:00, 4 December 2009 (UTC)


 * If there is no support in the references for the use of "murder" or "massacre" in the cases of McMahon or Arnon Street, then the articles should indeed be moved to a more NPOV title. As this is 1RR/troubles related territory, and to avoid a potential revert war you really should challenge the editors on the "other side" to support the name (if it isn't already supported in the references - I haven't checked). If you do this and nobody can come up with reliable and verifiable support for the titles I will propose a move of one of both articles to an NPOV title myself. OK?
