My warning is for the wrong thing, would like to clarify
Hello, I received a warning on my talk page for edit warring over Syrian Chemical weapons. I'm afraid that is not what the "edit war" was about. It was related to page MintPress News where the one user Sayerslle on the page was only citing negative blogs that were not reliable sources, wrote the entire page for the MintPress website based on one of their articles they published a year ago about chemical weapons and inserted his opinions (you can see the talk page and revision history) and I was advocating to make the page more neutral by proving both negative, positive and neutral coverage. I'm happy to say that was achieved after a month of "edit warring" and an editor intervened and agreed with me. But, I am not familiar with the Syrian chemical weapons affair nor do I care much for it, I was simply trying to cite reliable sources. Thanks, just wanted to clarify what the issue was. isabellabean (talk) 10:30, 21 February 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Isabellabean (talk • contribs)

Still edit warring
As I predicted, User: BioDude73 is still continuing to edit war adding the hoax content to Alonzo Holt, now logging out to use the same IP address they were using before. Can you just perform the block, rather then me go through WP:ANEW? The user also claims to be the subject as seen here. Either way, the content still being thrusted into the article is factually incorrect in a way to advertise or promote the subject. STATic message me!   22:20, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Both the account and IP are blocked for 31 hours. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 23:52, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

I apply to check whether user Kamakatsu (talk) is another ID of user Banzaiblitz (talk). Banzaiblitz uses lots of IDs in different article and now for talk page of Nanking Massacre, there is a new ID to support Banzaiblitz.

EasyTherePilgrim, Fightcats & Golden Prime
Hi you were the administrator who investigated the sock puppetry of and I appreciate your effort to maintain order in Wikipedia.

I just patrolled the page Tiger versus lion again and found recently made some lengthy nonconstructive edits using similar invalid materials by  after the block of his sock/meat puppetry. I just did a Google search using the keywords appearing in 's edits as his claims and actions were very unusual for a new user like citing Ken Spiro source/claiming the article was based on Martial's invalid opinions (which is not - none of the sources in the article is based on Martial and they are mostly independent sources), and I found that made a lengthy post in a forum a few days after block on Feb 3, attacking and posting links to our Tiger versus lion article and making all the false claims EasyTherePilgrim has trying to push - this explained all the unusual actions of  like his (Ken Spiro/Martia source pushing and all our sources being invalid claims) and the fact that  picked up at Tiger versus lion on Feb 3, which was exactly the date  attacked our article in that forum, can hardly be a coincidence he claimed in his block appeal. In the same thread there you can also see another active poster Fightcats pushing 's materials as well. In fact Golden Prime and Fightcats have been posting in that attack thread since 2012 but Golden Prime escalated his attack on our article and editors on Feb 3 2014.

So, &  are all related as they originate from the same attack site. Does Wikipedia allow me to post the link of that "attack site" here? Besides, as the sock puppetry investigation of Golden Prime has closed, should I open another sock puppetry/meat puppetry investigation of ? Thanks a lot.

Require administer for discussion in talk page of Nanking Massacre
I see you are an administrator.If you are an administrator, can you administer the discussion of Nanking Massacre in its talk page? This discussion is totally mess. I hope there is at least two administrator to administer it for fair. It is really a mess and endless discussion if no administrator to manage it. I hope at least two administrator to manage this. There will be no result to make everyone satisfactory. I hope there is a vote which is managed by administrator. Otherwise, this discussion will be endless. Everyone is wasting their time. This discussion started from section "I see a significant change of the figure about people killed in this Massacre".

Kwamikagami
Since you warned me and Kwamikagami to not edit war on the MOS, could you revert this edit from him ? This has no consensus, and the matter is currently under RFC and at TfD. I'm tired of Kwamikagami's constant POV-pushing and forum-shopping. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 14:29, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for not reverting yourself. I've let them a message asking them to revert themselves. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:39, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Seems that didn't do much. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 13:05, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Try number two. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 13:32, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Seems that didn't do much either. I can't say I'm surprised given their history of WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 12:52, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah it's definitely looking like that. Might be best just to ignore the edit and wait until the discussions are over and you've got consensus behind you. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 06:05, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
 * The problem with that is that MOSNUM stays at the proverbial WP:WRONGVERSION and that people are told to use a POV fork of a template which should be deleted under WP:CSD. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 07:04, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Well both templates are listed so they can use they can pick the one they want to use. I've asked on AN for admin to close it so this'll be at an end. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 07:22, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

Could you tell Kwamikagami to stop his pointy behaviour? Stradivarius closed the val2 deletion discussion and deleted/moved it to the sandbox. where before Kwamikagami's was to use AWB to convert val to val2, now he's going on an AWB rampage to change the use of val to +- [e.g. ], claiming "MOS compliance". This is pointy behaviour of the highest order, and makes it a pain in the ass to maintain articles because whenever the RfC on val will close, we'll have to either go through Kwamikagami's edit history and mass revert him, or go on an AWB spree of our own to undo the damage. Warn him, block him, I don't care, but please do something. Or I can take it to ANI if you prefer. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 14:08, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Please do, the user users the same arguments, phrases, sentences and sources. Please take note that were numerous banned sockpuppets of EPM including IP's(they are listed in previous cases). See example of almost identical sentences used Poles were 'Aryan', in the districts the ethnic Poles were placed into the 'Aryan side' and were subject to laws such as being forbid to buy or engage in any sort of interaction with Jews, any ethnic Pole helping Jew(s) were given the death penalty After the invasion of Poland in 1939 the streets were straight away rounded into the "Aryan Side" and the "Jewish Side" and any Poles that helped Jews by forging them "Aryan Papers" to pretend to be ethnic Poles were given the death penalty

This case has taken so many days, It would be good to see it resolved. --MyMoloboaccount (talk) 09:33, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Feel free to check my IP and my history, I'm not a sock puppet of anyone. Just because I've used evidence which is already mentioned in the talk pages of related articles does not make me a sock puppet. It really makes me wonder why you won't dispute with me and constantly just report me and accuse me of sock puppetry, I've opened discussions on the talk pages, why not discuss? There is ample amounts of evidence to support what I am saying, I have not removed anything without reason, I mean see the here, its not that what you are saying is wrong or is disputed but rather that it does not belong to be there or is already mentioned, e.g "The Nazis because of this declared Slavs to be untermenschen (subhumans)" - Poles are Slavs, there is no need to repeat the info. Just because you simply don't like the fact I question some text that was placed into articles that is wrong does not make me a sock puppet. You have added incorrect text into articles, of course this will be removed, why don't respond to me on talk pages such as and ?--Windows66 (talk) 16:49, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi Callanecc, you recently blocked for warring at Ahir, following a report at WP:AN3.

Hi Callanecc. I don't think the IP 62.44.135.196 and its IP sock are Vgleer puppets. The named account is, but imo, the page Sockpuppet investigations/62.44.135.196 when referring to the two IPs should be separate from the Vgleer SPI. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις  18:03, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

WP:ARBEE: Who can give notice of discretionary sanctions on a page?
Hi Callanecc, the articles 2014 Russian military intervention in Ukraine and 2014 Crimean crisis would obviously fall under the WP:ARBEE discretionary sanctions, but I'm not sure if, as a non-administrator, I'm allowed to place a notice on the talk pages? Or if an admin would be required? If so, I'd love it if you were able to help! Both articles are, for obvious reasons, being heatedly edited by editors with more or less open convictions supporting either side of the conflict.

I'm writing because I see you were the admin who gave notice to Talk:Svoboda (political party), which I've been editing a lot, recently. -Darouet (talk) 19:56, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
 * No an admin doesn't need to place the warning on a talk page anyone can do that. But it is up to an admin (whenever they warn or sanction) whether that page is actually part of the topic area. I've added the notice to both talk pages. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:56, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Arbitration enforcement action appeal by 
''Procedural notes: The rules governing arbitration enforcement appeals are found here. According to the procedures, a "clear, substantial, and active consensus of uninvolved editors" is required to overturn an arbitration enforcement action. To help determine any such consensus, involved editors may make brief statements in separate sections but should not edit the section for discussion among uninvolved editors. Editors are normally considered involved if they are in a current dispute with the sanctioning or sanctioned editor, or have taken part in disputes (if any) related to the contested enforcement action. Administrators having taken administrative actions are not normally considered involved for this reason alone (see WP:UNINVOLVED).''


 * Appealing user : – Kafkasmurat (talk) 10:43, 5 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Sanction being appealed : 


 * Administrator imposing the sanction :


 * Notification of that administrator : The appealing editor is asked to notify the administrator who made the enforcement action of this appeal, and then to replace this text with a diff of that notification. The appeal may not be processed otherwise. If a block is appealed, the editor moving the appeal to this board should make the notification.

Statement by 
I'm now thinking that first settlers' reign at politically controversial articles. Isn't that weird Armenia- Azerbaijan related articles has so many interference? The owners of Armenia related articles don't allow anything to do. Nearly all of talk page edits are reverted. How will we become a free encyclopedia with ethnic struggles? I didn't harm Wikipedia. I just offended the owners. We should examine the right to requests_for_arbitration of users like Étienne Dolet, who specialized at ethnic manipulation. I was just providing information with sources. I'didn't attack anyone. Just told that all of the users edits are anti-Turkish. It's not attack, it's fact. I appeal the sanctions, to be lifted.--Kafkasmurat (talk) 10:43, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Result of the appeal by 

 * This section is to be edited only by uninvolved administrators. Comments by others will be moved to the sections above.


 * This appeal belongs at WP:AE as it was imposed there and I don't feel comfortable overturning a sanction imposed by consensus even though technically I can. Also your statement does absolutely nothing to suggest that you understand the reasons you were sanctioned. In particular statements such as "Just told that all of the users edits are anti-Turkish" show a blatant misunderstanding of the civility policy and no personal attacks. To be very clear you tell any editor that they are anti-Turkish it is a personal attack and so will be met with a block of up to a month. You are treading on thin ice, if you break through there are blocks and a topic ban as was stated by commenting admins in the enforcement request. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 11:39, 5 March 2014 (UTC)


 * "...users like Étienne Dolet, who specialized at ethnic manipulation." and "Just told that all of the users edits are anti-Turkish. It's not attack, it's fact."? Please remain WP:CIVIL and stop personally attacking me. I don't appreciate it when you say these things to me when talking to other users. This statement is in itself a violation of your topic ban. Callanecc, where's the best venue to have this examined? Étienne Dolet (talk) 20:40, 5 March 2014 (UTC)


 * I generally allow just sanctioned users a little bit of leeway and in this case they were appealing which they're allowed to do. It's best to just drop this one. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:15, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

WP:ANI
Hi there, would you be prepared to have another look at the block of User:Parrot_of_Doom. As mentioned on that thread, I'd agree that the stuff POD was reverting was a clear BLP violation (not to mention that it comes from a user with a history of dubious sourcing and borderline racist diatribe; I really don't think that article is one that an editor who thinks that "Wikipedia is a platform for Islamic extremism" should be editing anyway...). Thanks, Black Kite (talk) 14:50, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

I agree with, whose position is supported by . I hope you don't mind (you're probably doing something real right now or you would have responded already), but I'm going to unblock PoD, since I believe they were correct in their BLP invocation; the minor incivilities on either side weren't given as a reason for the block and they were minor anyway. Given your edit notice also I feel confident that you won't mind terribly. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 17:23, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Tom Butler
I think you made a mistake imposing a topic ban at Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement without even addressing the canvassing that occurred in this case. There really is the appearance that a half dozen editors who focus on pseudoscientific topics can get anyone who opposes them topic banned or blocked for "disruptive" behavior (defined as disagreement). I can't think of another subject area on Wikipedia where 6 or 7 editors have the power to get editors who don't agree with them kicked out. And people wonder why editors with a neutral point of view have avoided editing certain articles...no one wants to contradict the small majority and get blocked. If not at SPI, then at AN/I or AE. IMHO. Liz Read! Talk! 15:59, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
 * As a few admins who work at AE have said canvassing isn't really that much of a problem as it's the admins who make the call not based on the number of editors who comment which I for one wouldn't even be able to guess at. We look for the evidence presented and work from there. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 23:24, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Anjem Choudary Edit War
Hello. I'm here because I've noticed you have banned one user Atsme for an edit war for actions on Anjem Choudary. I would like ask you to consider futher investigation. It's not that I disagree with the ban but I question if there's a balance of fairness in this ban. This is the second edit war with many of the same people involved. The previous one took place on 2/24/14. At this point I do not feel that an edit war is the only disruptive editing taking place. With that I'm not sure this ban will effectively do anything but prevent one user from editing for 36 hours.Serialjoepsycho (talk) 18:26, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
 * The user was blocked, not banned. I agree that a 36-hour block on what appears to be pretty much an SPA account might not be enough. Drmies (talk) 18:33, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Pardon I actually meant block when I said ban. I don't know what you mean by SPA. While this particular user has certainly earned a 36 hour block if not more, I think this situation does call for more. It really has got out of hand. I'm not asking you block anyone else.

I'm just saying that only one thing was addressed. I'm asking you to get involved in any content dispute. I think behavoir on both ends may have lead to this. I think it does need to be addressed. I could have been a major contributing factor. I don't think I have but I could have been. I'd just ask you consider the over all situation and see if you feel anything else should be addressed.Serialjoepsycho (talk) 19:37, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Drmies meant that is a single purpose account so that they'll be back after their block has expired. I agree mostly however I'd rather wait and see what they do after their block expires. If they continue with the same sort of behaviour I'll long term or indef them but I'd rather give them a chance to see what will happen first. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 23:28, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Exactly. The articles they work on are hotbeds of POV editing, and I have yet to see them being productive. I looked at behavior and content only narrowly--narrow enough to establish that Parrot of Doom was correct in reverting them. (Admins typically stay out of content discussions, but in such cases you have to look carefully to see if someone correctly invokes BLP policy, for instance, during an edit war.) I saw two problematic editors and I will be keeping an eye on the matter: the article is as yet salvageable through normal means, as far as I can tell right now. Thank you, and Callanecc, thanks for this and the message above. Drmies (talk) 23:55, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I particularly disagree that Atsme is SPA. I think disruptive behavoir however will continue when she returns. It may not be edit warring however she has done more than that. Point illustrating for instance I think can be seen on Anjem Choudary. There was forum shopping. The thing is I don't think she is trying to be a disruptive editor. She seems very much to be a new user that got ran off before and came back to try again. The behavoir of others hasn't been ideal either. While I think she paved the way for uncivility, the fact is two wrongs do not make a right. If you adress her behavoir but not that of everyone else then I don't feel your action will make her take stock and adjust accordingly.Serialjoepsycho (talk) 00:04, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Block Evasion
LimosaCorel, who you blocked today for sockpuppeting, is evading his block by editing from a new IP address, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2606:6000:80C1:6900:C27:5D5A:F5A1:705B He has so far, already reverted one editor, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ash_Wednesday&diff=598239846&oldid=598238687 after being unable to edit with his account on the same page, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ash_Wednesday&diff=598217112&oldid=598208511

Editing from yet one more IP address on the same article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2606:6000:80C1:6900:E54D:20C3:B245:C208 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.123.177.3 (talk) 21:42, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

SPI "Tracker"
Hi. I just noticed Sockpuppet investigations/UpdatedTrackerAccurate and the associated account blocks. I had noticed these users making the changes to Sheldon Adelson but the changes weren't vandalism and weren't violating NPOV so I mostly ignored them. Should I have reported them as possible socks? I assumed they might have been paid editors but without malicious intent it seemed beneath notice. While I'm aware of socking I've never personally dealt with it. Please advise.

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370
Re: Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 I've been trying to improve this article in a real way for some time but it continually devolves into frustrating, nitpicking issues with a few of the users. Now a user has gone through the article and removed all the references to the airline's press releases, claiming that they are dynamic primary sources, and that as primary sources they should not be used. I think they are reputable and I have not been interpreting them.

This is weird. You announced a block and the user hasn't edited since but there is nothing in the block log. This was pointed out to me by another user and I did the usual cache clearing, so I don't think I am seeing an old version.

No harm is occurring and there doesn't seem to be any need to take any sort of action, but I am curious as to whether the log has some sort of bug, there was an error in the blocking (which might mean that a typo blocked someone else) or whether I am wrong about the cache and am looking at on old version. --Guy Macon (talk) 17:01, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Template:like protection
Hello Callenecc,

You recently protected template:like. But I can't for the life of me figure out what makes it a WP:HRT aNd your edit summary wasn't very enlightening. I also didn't see a request for protection and there hadn't been like an ongoing vandalism problem that I'm aware of. I'm no template expert but if I understand correctly this template is transcluded only 941 times and I feel like if that makes a template "high risk" then there are not very many templates that are low-risk. Thanks!  AgnosticAphid  talk 06:06, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
 * See this, it currently has 941 transclusions. I generally lower standard (closer to 750 transclusions) for templates which are used on talk pages, so the transclusions will continue to grow and changes may negatively effect user's and discussions. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 06:10, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your response. But I feel like it is totally not a "high-risk template" if it is transcluded 941 times total.  Especially since there's not a history of people repeatedly vandalizing the template.  I read thought he discussion that created the high-risk template page, which is about much-more-frequently used templates.  And I noticed that there is some opposition to protecting minor-ish templates like this on the WP:HRT talk page.  May I kindly request that you withdraw the protection of this one template?  That would satisfy me and not lead me to pursue this further.  Thanks for your time, I know you are busy.   AgnosticAphid  talk 06:21, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Semi of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370‎
Hi Callan, it's generally preferable to leave high-profile articles like this unprotected as far as possible, and to protect it only for short spells if protection is necessary, because it's thought that articles on breaking news events help to recruit new editors, and because many IPs have constructive edits to offer even if there is a bit of disruption. Would you consider unprotecting it? Thanks, HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?  22:30, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Quick Question Re: Warning
Callanecc, you mentioned in your notification on my Talk Page that I could bring up any questions, so I wanted to run something by you. Keeping my edits to Sheldrake at a minimum still resulted in profound hostility, and even abstaining from the page has not stopped harassing behavior (especially with 76). I was in the process of dealing with this problematic conduct by certain Sheldrake editors (this included those from my ANI and potential future actions against 76) and had hoped to pursue means to resolve this kind of problem in the future. However, now I am worried that the broad scope of the warning against me (ie. "a very low bar") will make it easy for any action I take, regardless of its legitimacy, to be labelled as disruptive and used to block me. I feel there are issues that should be addressed, both in terms of personal attacks against me and inappropriate conduct on certain articles, but I want to pursue these through the proper channels without being blocked. Do you have any advice? The Cap&#39;n (talk) 23:19, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Assuming they have been notified of the discretionary sanctions already, a report at WP:AE which includes diffs and explanations of why those diffs are unacceptable in context is the proper channel. I however would suggest that you spend a month or two away from Sheldrake, and probably pseudoscience generally and get some experience in less controversial and hot headed areas. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 23:39, 11 March 2014 (UTC)


 * I'm perfectly willing to lay low with the Sheldrake article or other pseudoscience articles, but I was hoping for a clarification on one point. The folks (like 76) who have used personal attacks declared that they did so as a result of my involvement on the Sheldrake page, and frequently cite my pro-fringe arguments (well, cite is the wrong word, since there have been no such citations, since I am, in fact, very far from pro-fringe).  Any ANI or AE I pursue would likely include a few references and diffs to the Sheldrake page, as this is where much of this behavior is rooted and began against me, though the purpose is to address personal conduct, not article content.  Would that be considered getting involved in pseudoscience?  Thanks again for your input.  The Cap&#39;n (talk) 17:34, 14 March 2014 (UTC)

Page protection request
Hello Callanecc. I was wondering if you might be able to protect a page for me? I was hoping you could add semi protection to Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The request is two-fold: the film is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the films garner high page views and are very susceptible to vandalism. This film premiered tonight, and will be releasing shortly, so given experience, the IP vandals will be out in full force. I am hoping to prevent that before it starts (as has been done on recent MCU films before their release). I know protections should not be punitive, but these edits will prevent the hard working editors like myself, from adequately adding the necessary info for when it releases. The second reason, is a sequel date was revealed today as well, so that will most likely bring in more vandals. I hope you will make this request. If I may suggest, protection through the end of April should be sufficient. If you aren't willing to go with semiprotection, could pending changes protection be an option? Thank you very much for the consideration and help. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 06:26, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Articles aren't edit protected preemptively so I can only judge based on what's there. At the moment there aren't enough disruptive/unconstructive edits by non-autoconfirmed users to justify protected and the rate of edits coming in is way to high for pending changes. If the number of unconstructive edits by non-autoconfirmed users increases then please do let me know (or put a request at WP:RFPP) and we can look at semi protecting it. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 23:44, 14 March 2014 (UTC)

Registered Agents
You reinstated vandalism from repeat IP vandals/socks/SPAs on Registered Agent article citing "looks like advertising for them." I'm not sure what "advertising" benefit would be derived - all of the Big 3/4/5, etc. companies have articles and the section now has orphan links from Big Four. I was using other Big Fours as a precedent. Shouldn't Big_Four_(audit_firms) and Big_Three_(management_consultancies), etc. also then be deleted as "advertising?" Or ? I wish to learn more since maybe I mo understand. If I have citation saying that the top three soft drinks are Coke, Pepsi, and Dr. Pepper, and state that, is that advertising? Or ? Thank you in advance. LoyolaGirl (talk) 01:52, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
 * It's not vandalism, which is an intention is disrupt or damage the project. There is a difference between integrating them into an article with a source which explicitly states that they are the big four companies offering Registered agents then it's not advertising or WP:SYNTH. The Google Book reference doesn't say it explicitly and doesn't base it on evidence. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 01:57, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
 * On the citation, I think I understand though I hope I'm wrong because it would make every citation I've ever added incorrect. So the "LLCs for Dummies" book reference saying that they are the "Big Four" in the section "Calling in the Big Four", doesn't qualify as a citation for them being the "Big Four" because the book doesn't include its own citations to other sources in that section of the book? Please clarify. Also, what about the additional reference I posted to the registeredagentinfo.com article about the big four? Same reason or ? If this is the case, I think I need to go back over everything I've ever written, cited, or edited. Even my law school books didn't include a citation next to the big four, they just said who they were and I just assumed that the textbook was correct. As for the vandals, erasing the big four section was only a component of their activities. They have been routinely deleting other citations, sections, rewriting sections with gibberish, untruths, and uncited nonsense. There is a definite intent to damage the article regardless of the one section. LoyolaGirl (talk) 11:45, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

 * I'm not going to unblock you unilaterally, when you post the unblock request if I believe you deserve another go and the blocking admin(s) are reasonably open to it I'll post a request on WP:AN the community consider Template:2nd chance. From there it's up to the community. However from this post it is obvious that you do not understand what sockpuppetry is, so to be crystal clear you must only use the Yasir72.multan account to post on User talk:Yasir72.multan while ever you have talk page access, if your access to the talk page is revoked you must not edit Wikipedia at all. Every time you evade the block (like the post I'm replying to) is resets the clock and makes it less likely that the community will allow you to be unblocked.

WP:ACC
Hi Callanecc. I wonder if you might do me a small favour? I've just used the ACC tool for the first time, and wondered whether you'd be able to double-check what I've done - obviously it would be nice to know if I'm making any mistakes, and since the interface is now rather different from that shown in the guide I'm not 100% certain that I'm hitting the right buttons. (99.9%, yes...). The accounts I've done this morning are, and , and I also declined Sara_Howard as being too similar to an existing user. Assuming I've done everything right, I'll carry on, but if I'm going to screw up enough to get the tool removed, best to do so early before I do any damage...

Please help with the Canon DSLR table
Hey Callanecc,

Please help me on the template:Canon EOS digital cameras template table page? The user Jcitme continues to revert the table back to a new version that uses a flagship row and he is being very rude about it. I'm not pleased to have somebody tell me "no, no, no and no" when I am trying to make points to them and they respond like that to me like I'm under the age of 10... We are discussing this stuff in the Talk page but I don't know what I am doing so I can't fight him on this. I can tell you that the edits he keeps reverting to are changes that were made AFTER I cleaned the table up at the beginning of the month. So the table was in one state before March. Then I made some fixes. Then somebody made changes after my changes that changed the character of the table, so then I tried to put it back to the old way, and now Jctime keeps reverting to the new version that came after my changes. I don't even know how long he's had an account on this Wikipedia thing but he has a very strong preference for the version that came after my little fixes. This is extremely frustrating. I am talking about all this on the Talk page and I can't fight this alone. Please come in and render an outside opinion!!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.201.174.85 (talk) 16:03, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

Later Jin (Five Dynasties)
Hello Callanecc, and thank you for taking care of Later Jin (Five Dynasties)! I see that you moved the article back to the capitalized form but quickly reverted to the non-capitalized Later Jin (Five dynasties), saying that the move hadn't been thoroughly discussed yet. From the discussion at WT:Naming conventions (Chinese), however, it seems that even the user who had moved it to the non-capitalized form agrees that "Five Dynasties" should be capitalized. He is also the one who tagged the page to be moved back. Since nobody is left arguing that the page should be at Later Jin (Five dynasties), I think it would be reasonable to return it to its original capitalized title. No matter what you decide on this issue, do keep up the good work! Madalibi (talk) 12:53, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Friendly reminder on [SPI on Ryoung122]
Callanecc,

I thought I'd send a friendly reminder on your talk page regarding the SPI you checked three days ago. I left my investigation results on the SPI page, but I was not sure if you had reviewed my comments yet since it is "closed" but that you did leave a message for checkusers something to the effect of "Could the clerks hold off on archiving this one, I need to have a chat to a CU about it."

By the way, I realized I had left my comments in the wrong section, and please feel free to move my comments to the correct location in that SPI. As you will see, if not yet, it was an impersonator of the real Robert Young, "ryoung122", so I feared that the SPI may have been a rubber-stamp on accusing "ryoung122" for the 'suspected sockpuppets'. You mentioned WP:DUCK but it wasn't a duck. ;-)

I don't remember exactly what a checkuser does, and whether you as an administrator have the ability to see IP addresses (or that's why there is a CU group), so please let me know what you find, particularly when the vandal also tweaked a living person's page to show that he had died whereas it wasn't the case, upsetting the victim & his family and friends. Cheers, Calvin  Ty  14:33, 24 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the heads up. I've had a look through the evidence you submitted and while it looks somewhat clear that it isn't Ryoung122 it doesn't really matter that much now that the sock account has been blocked. If Ryoung122 wants to return to Wikipedia we can work out with them whether it's his account, until then it doesn't really matter where it's archived.

You removed T3 noticed on this and a few templates for speedy deletions. These template redirects are not really used anywhere and just multiple spellings for the same template.

Unblock request for Redmoon660
You blocked Redmoon660 for sockpuppetry. There is now an unblock request at User talk:Redmoon660, in which the editor acknowledges that his/her use of multiple accounts was unacceptable, and undertakes not to do the same again. My own feeling is that, as far as the sockpuppetry issue is concerned, there is no reason not to take the editor's statement as made in good faith, and since the block no longer serves any preventive purpose, if sockpuppetry were the only issue, I would be happy to unblock. However, I am less than 100% comfortable about unblocking an editor with a clear conflict of interest, who is here only to promote a point of view, and who has vigorously done so through nearly 2000 edits in a few months. Maybe you would like to look at the unblock request and my comments about it, and indicate whether you have any opinion on the matter.

Ink Master rejection revision request
I would like to submit a request that you revise your decision to reject protection on the page Ink_Master_(season_4). Second time in 2 days I have reverted the page to undo multiple minor edits. Since the season started, I have had to correct multiple falsities in unregistered users posts. I continually have to change edits that contain misleading information based on opinions and not facts posted by unregistered users. The information I am posting is from the source. The talk page is not utilized by the unregistered users to discuss their views and reasons for wanting the changes. These guys are changing information based on their opinion and its becoming disruptive, in my opinion. I have been a primary contributor to Ink Master for 2+ years and have been open to changes so long as communication is had on the talk page as to better ways of doing it. I understand that we want an open format so anyone can edit, I like and agree with this format, but at what point do we draw the line when it comes to inaccurate information being posted knowing that information is opinion based? The source I use is the owner of the series. It has references throughout the page. I would ask for at least a month of protection. This should deter the one(s) who are primarily performing the opinionated edits from making them based on opinion. Kevintampa5 (talk) 02:42, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I've pending changes protected the page for three months. I still don't believe that there is enough activity to warrant semi-protection, however pending changes will give the editors reviewing the article a chance to check edits to the page before they go live.

 * Thank you sir. I fully understand the volume was not so bad as some pages I have seen, and it wouldnt be an issue except for the reasons previously mentioned. Semi-protection for a few weeks will most likely deter the inaccurate edits, or at least encourage the editor to log in, thus making it easier to communicate with him/her to see the reasons for select edits. If this happens, I will request a reduction in protection. Again, thanks for your help!Kevintampa5 (talk) 06:05, 22 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Per the Protection information pages, PC1 should allow registered, autoconfirmed and confirmed users to publish edits immediately to live status.

Hi Callanecc. :) I just noticed that User talk:Callanecc/Editnotice is template-protected - sorry to be a stickler for the rules, but would you mind changing it to full protection?

 * That's not quite how it works. Template editors can edit mainspace editnotices not because mainspace editnotices are template-protected, but because mainspace editnotices are protected by the titleblacklist, which template editor rights allow them to bypass. So, there's really no connection between editnotices and template-protection itself, if that makes sense. Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 05:12, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

DYK promotion problems
Callanecc, none of the six nomination templates you promoted in your recent Prep 4/Queue 4 set were properly done—it looks like you neglected to add the "subst:" before the "DYKsubpage" after the opening braces at the top of the template. I'd do it for you, but then it would look like I was the one who promoted them, and it really should be you.

There's also another thing: if you build the prep set, you shouldn't also be the one to promote it to the queue. It's important to have other pairs of eyes to check a built set and see if there are any issues—the incorrect closure of the templates, for example, but also things like hook wording or set composition: sets are supposed to have a hard upper limit of 50% bios and 50% American hooks unless there's no other choice, and this one has four bios although there are other non-bio, non-American hooks. Something to note for the future. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:09, 27 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for that, I was wondering why that wasn't working.
 * Good point, I thought I'd seen other admins doing that, but obviously not. The Senegal coat of arms is one of the very few non-American, non-bios left and I thought it was probably better to keep it for the next Queue. But I take your point, mea culpa. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 06:50, 27 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Callanecc, there may have been a situation where an admin finished up an incomplete prep set because no queue was ready and a new set was needed immediately for the front page—I don't know for sure, but you might have seen one like that—but such is definitely the exception, and an emergency situation.


 * Thanks for taking care of the template substitutions—as far as I can tell, there's still one more promoted template that needs fixing: Template:Did you know nominations/Anna Turney. While checking it out, I noticed that the article didn't list any of her successful finishes at Sochi, so I found a source and added the information to the article. (All it mentioned was her fall during the opening downhill, which seemed a shame for a Paralympian.) BlueMoonset (talk) 07:15, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

Dawoodi Bohra
I would like to have your kind attention to this paragraph from the article Dawoodi Bohra

(The spiritual leader of the Dawoodi Bohra community is called Da'i al-Mutlaq (Arabic: داعي المطلق‎), which serves as the representative of the Imam. The role of Da'i was created by Queen Arwa bint Ahmed (also known as Al-Hurra Al-Malika) of Yemen. It was initially created as a subordinate role to support other roles as such Hujja, Dai-ad-Du'at and Dai Balagh. Following the hiding of 21st Imam Al-Tayyeb and unavailability of the successor, Queen appointed Syedna Zueb bin Musa as the first Dai-al-Mutlaq to rule the whole D'awa.[2][3][4])

The above paragraph contradicts the very basic faith of Dawoodi Bohra. It should be written as given in At-Tayyib Abu'l-Qasim.

(According to "Ṭāyyibī Mustā‘līd" tradition, before At-Tayyib Abu'l-Qasim went into seclusion his father Al-Amir bi-Ahkami'l-Lah instructed Queen al-Hurrah Arwa al-Sulayhi in Yemen to anoint a vicegerent after the seclusion. The vicegerent, or Da'i al-Mutlaq, would have full authority to govern the community in all matters both spiritual and temporal. She appointed Da'i Zoeb bin musa as First Dai in Yemen.)

further the reference given by asgarli engineer is baised, as asgarali engineer is founder of progressive dawoodi bohra, a minor faction. and is separate from mainstream. I would like to cite more neutral reference, Mr. John Blank who has done his unbiased research upon dawoodi bohra in his book Mullahs on the Mainframe

Your intervention is required! Both side is pushing their POV. They just want to publicize "succession controversy" in favor of their favorite leader. There is a fan group of editors, I was invited there to interfere by the minority one. One immediate solution is your intervention or reducing protection to semi-protection. I've my opinion to first make the article in compliance with wiki standards then a RfC to answer those little fraction of editors including multiple SPAs. Once consensus is established by the community, no vandalism would be tolerated. That's it. Looking forward for your opinion. Anupmehra - Let's talk!  07:11, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

 * I'd rather not semi-protect it because as you said on the talk page it'll just lead to more edit warring. Perhaps it'd be worth listing it at WP:DRN and see if you can get some more input. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 10:33, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Almost all involved editors are new editors and no-one has reviewer user-right, except me. I've perhaps never edited that article before. I can only assure that I've no POV. They've their personal opinions as arguments. Editors not discussing their change on the talk page, prefer to edit-war, would simply be reported at AIV/ANI. They are SPAs, they'd be keep coming with new ids. Well, there's SPI for them. Beside protection to prevent edit-warring, AIV works as well (i find it more effective). We can force editors to discuss their change on talk page or keep their POV with them at home. m:Wrong version is a good essay, but if you can spare sometime to look at the contents and sources of the present article, it'd be falsifying it. I was involved to correct the present article, but as it is fully-protected, I technically can not do it and I would never have consensus among POV editors. DRN might solve the problem the same way, forcing editors to acknowledge Wikipedia policy and guidelines. Anupmehra  - Let's talk!  11:06, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

Mean-Sounding Template
I understand that you felt the comment about certain attitudes resembling Communism was not well-taken. However, it was patently not a personal attack.

 * WP:NPA states that a personal attack is racial, ... religious, political, ethnic, national, ... directed against another contributor, or against a group of contributors and comparing editors to Nazis, dictators, or other infamous persons.

Hi Callanecc. I think I've made a cock up on ACC - I've just created User:Sloughetonse, and in some brainfart of a moment, failed to break the username down mentally into Slough - Eton - SE. It's obviously an inappropriate username, since it clearly represents Slough and Eton School. Is there anything I can do to fix this, short of the username block and apologetic message I intend to leave them in a few moments? Yunshui 雲 ‍ 水  08:28, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Depending on what the email address was you might be able to wait and check their edits to see if a block is needed. Otherwise I'd suggest uw-username asking them to request a rename (ie without blocking them). Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 08:33, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
 * The more I look at it, the more I reckon this was intended as an account for the school, rather than for an individual. Pre-emptive blocking isn't something I take lightly, but in this case I think it may be the appropriate course of action.

 * I honestly wouldn't worry about such a thing. It's one of those username requests that even if you did break it down to begin with, unless there was something that outstandingly jumped out at you, you should have created the account anyways AGFing that it was a legitimate username.  Then you watch their contributions and if it is promo only or something that would be otherwise an issue, then deal with it as such.  :) — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (t • e • c) 15:16, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions
Hello, Callanecc, Given the latest case at ARE, I was looking at the Requests for arbitration/Pseudoscience and a warning Second Quantization was given for issuing a DS warning, saying that it had to be given by an uninvolved administrator. If a warning is issued by a editor (who should be also uninvolved), it should include the parameter |admin=no in the template. So, I wondered about DS warnings like this, this and this...I'm not focusing on this issue because I have a stake in these topics but last fall, during the hubbub about Rupert Sheldrake, I noticed a number of involved editors issuing DS warnings to those editors they disagreed with and now I see that these warnings were never logged in on the Pseudoscience DS page so I don't know if they were considered "official" and whether unofficial warnings were appropriate to deliver to editors' talk pages. The examples I gave were logged in but I had questions about unofficial ones, too. I've commented on the DS policy review that I took issue with warnings being used as a weapon to silence those one opposes so that is my interest.

 * As far as I am aware there is no general prohibition built into DS about any user notifying people on the other side of a dispute. Having said that, doing so can disruptive, isn't collegial and might suggest a battleground approach. Also as far as I am aware a notification issued to a user from a non-admin is just as enforceable as if it were issued by an admin. In any case in the new draft, issuing an alert to someone is exactly the same as being alerted oneself. If they aren't logged I'll sometimes ignore it and sometimes refer to it as the required notification depending on the circumstances. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 01:54, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, so two three questions: 1) Was the warning given to SQ about needing to include that parameter in the template incorrect then? And the remark that the warning, whether given by an admin or nonadmin be "uninvolved"? 2) Should nonadmins log in every warning they give out? It sounds like not having warnings logged in can lead to problems later.
 * Thanks for your response. Liz  <sup style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><b style="color:#006400;">Read!</b> <b style="color:#006400;">Talk!</b> 02:13, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) You'd need to ask the admin who gave the warning. 1.5) WP:AC/DS doesn't say it explicitly so it's a matter of interpretation. 2) Depends, there is nothing at WP:AC/DS which states that they need to be logged and really it's just done for ease of checking whether someone has been notified. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:02, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, I guess this means there is no consensus among admins so it's good that policy regarding DS is currently being discussed elsewhere. Maybe it will bring some clarity here. Thanks, again, Callanecc! Liz  <sup style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><b style="color:#006400;">Read!</b> <b style="color:#006400;">Talk!</b> 20:56, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Protection of templates
Just wonder why you are protecting templates which hasnt been vandalized. You edit summary links to High-risk templates which says "If fully protected, so that they can only be edited by administrators, or template-protected, so that they can only be edited by administrators and template editors, these templates should be changed only after consensus for the change has been established on the template's talk page." Christian75 (talk) 12:19, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi Christian, templates which are considered to be high risk (in the case of my protections because they have a very large number of transclusions are generally either semi or template protected to protect against the risk of vandalism or people accidentally breaking the template. This is one of the few times that the protection policy allows admins to protect pages preemptively, but it does prevent normal vandalism or trolling from going live on a huge number of pages. For example on a template which is semi protected and have 7000 transclusions, all a vandal would need to do is to get autoconfirmed then vandalise a number of templates, which means that we could have tens of thousands of pages showing that vandalism (or libel or image vandalism). Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 01:03, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

New SPI
Hi, it turns out there was a reason for the apparent confusion I received from the functionaries mailing list. After filing an SPI, I was told that there are no suppressed edits in the Ralph Abraham article, something which I did not anticipate in the least. Deepak Chopra sent out a tweet complaining about death threats in the Abraham article, and the responses he received all acknowledged the vandalism. But it happened four days prior to Chopra's tweet and was reverted in seconds by ClueBot. Chopra linked to the current article, not a past revision. There were at least two screenshots showing the vandalism, one being of the Google Knowledge Graph info. It's all very peculiar (perhaps there is even a software bug somewhere), but all that is a separate issue at this point.

In any case, the original goal of the SPI -- to checkuser the suppressed edit -- is not longer applicable. The revdeleted (not suppressed) edits from 71.119.92.56 are in fact the threats in question, and the SPI has shifted to a regular IP sockpuppeting case. I don't know where this puts the current state of the SPI; since you handled the last SPI you might want to look at this one (which is an updated version of my original email). Very recently one of Askahrc's edits exposing one of his IP addresses was suppressed, but you have a copy of my email which mentions the IP. vzaak 03:45, 4 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Looking at what's been presented in the SPI, I'm not convinced enough that there is a link between Askahrc and the IP as coincidence is not really enough to block. If it were an account there might be enough evidence to warrant CU, but since it's only an IP I can't be sure enough that they are the same. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:20, 4 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Right, well the SPI was never meant to be a behavior-based analysis of an IP. (Though there's not only the timing and location coincidence, but also motivation and prior behavior, among other things -- not that it really matters now.)


 * The technical puzzle this leaves behind is interesting. I've made a post about it at Village_pump_(technical). I don't see how vandalism that was immediately reverted by ClueBot could make its way to Google Knowledge Graph. One explanation would be that Special:Oversight is bugged and that there really are suppressed edits, but I have no explanation that explains all the pieces of the puzzle. vzaak 05:43, 4 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Or it just happened that the moment the page was duplicated was before ClueBot reverted the vandalism which is infinitely more likely as Oversighters don't use Special:Oversight anymore but rather Special:Delete revision and click the hide from admins box. Plus it's not very likely that the IP will have posted exactly the same edit twice and the Oversighter would have completely missed that there were two sets of edits. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 06:11, 4 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes I mentioned the possibility of extraordinarily unlucky timing in the pump post, but it's just amazing that that could happen, and then, extra extraordinarily, remain for four days. Articles are vandalized often, so one would expect Google to update accordingly; it seems unlikely that we are hitting a patient-zero bug of this sort. The theory also doesn't jive with other data, like Chopra and others apparently behaving as if the vandalism is really there, and one person taking a snapshot of the lower portion of an old diff while seemingly passing it off as the latest version. Whenever I weigh the possibilities I come back to suppressed diffs, an explanation which seems to require less conspiracy than others. But I need to think about it more. vzaak 07:19, 4 April 2014 (UTC)


 * The pump thread came up with the answer -- a caching glitch, . That's the only thing that jives with all the evidence here. vzaak 15:12, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Repeat sock

 * Thanks for the help. I'm not sure if you saw my comment regarding the IP you added, it was minutes before you closed the case.  187.252.103.226‎‎ has a pretty long history editing basketball articles, with little overlap in articles or style of editing until today's nationality-related changes.  I think it's very likely a coincidence.  This IP commented in a discussion on the nationality topic before the block, and has some history of even-keeled discussion, whereas Sportsgamaniacre is more combative. Let me know your thoughts.  Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 05:20, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
 * The one discussion link above was from 187.252.106.177, not 187.252.103.226‎‎. Striking, but still enough differences I believe.—Bagumba (talk) 05:29, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I've unblocked them based on that, I still think that coincidence is a bit too unlikely given what they were doing. But I think just keeping an eye on them in the future will be worthwhile. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 05:48, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, I've was recently right on one sock in another case that was initially rejected a couple years ago. I suppose it would balance it for me to be wrong here.  I hope not, more for that person's sake as oppose to my silly record.  Have a good one.—Bagumba (talk) 05:58, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

SockPuppet Investigation Immediately closed by an administrator when the accused requested him to close it- Need Immediate attention
Hi User:Callanecc,

I had opened a sock puppet investigation on two users Shriram and Lihaas on India General election page- Sockpuppet_investigations/Shriram. One of them suddently made a request to another Administrator ( RequestMadeHere ) to close the investigation and the page was immediately closed.

Excerpt- User:JamesBWatson, I would think canvassing around for his view is turning disruptive. (Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Shriram) How about a topic ban?Lihaas (talk) 14:44, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

The immediate closure of topic looks suspicious. Please do the necessary.

Hi Callanecc,

The accused user Lihaas asked another Amdinistrator JamesBWatson to close the SockPuppet INvestigation and he immediately did that. This is supisicios. Please have a look. As the page Indian general election, 2014 is a high profile page in India now due to ongoing election, there is very high chance of paid editing in WIkipedia by political parties in a wide manner to make page look advantage for them. I would request your kind intervention in this case.

Excerpt of request made by the accesed Lihas to JamesBWatson in ( RequestMadeHere )- "User:JamesBWatson, I would think canvassing around for his view is turning disruptive. (Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Shriram) How about a topic ban?Lihaas (talk) 14:44, 10 April 2014 (UTC)"

Thanks Soorej Soorejmg (talk) 06:28, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

User talk:S.Salman89
On 2 March 2014 you permanently blocked the above user for abusing multiple accounts but it seems he's still at it. I see from his contributions that among the articles he edited were Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) and others related to litigation for compensation. In recent days, there have been edits to CICA which I have reverted, attempting to provide an external link to a firm of lawyers or to use that firm's website as a reference. The diffs are here by Salamuddin_Shaikh and here by JohnMilson. You will notice that these are linking to same lawyers' firm as S.Salman89' edit on 31 January 2014. It seems to me that there is a concerted effort by a group of users, or the same user under various aliases, to exploit Wikipedia for their own commercial ends through free advertising posing as independent authority. It should be noted that the name of their firm, Criminal Injury Claims, is deliberately chosen to resemble as closely as possible Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority, presumably to catch out unwary Google users. (There is absolutely no need to use a lawyer to apply to the Authority.) Sorry to bother you with this, but seeing as you dealt with him before I thought you might be interested to pursue this.

Dear Callanecc, Well after this, you can see that the user is not really seeking a consensus nor providing a talk page to discuss the quality of the map on talk page, the user is really misinterpreting things, the user says that I'm wanting to promote "a different map" that I created in , but I'm using his/her own  and as you know a SVG map should be used in place of PNG map (raster image) when superior. The user probably does not want the map has a better quality in spite of having the same content as his/her map.

Autopatrolled
Hi,

I noticed that I was not approved for autopatrol due solely to not meeting the 50 article minimum. I've been on Wikipedia for over 8 years, I have restore multiple articles and have been active on DRV. In the recent months I've created twelve 12 articles. Per WP:IAR I feel that is a bit unfair. I find this highly discouraging and was hope you could revisit. Thanks! Valoem  talk   contrib  13:09, 17 April 2014 (UTC)


 * If I'd made it to the start of the year without finding one which had a maintenance tag (or would qualify for one) I would have IARed and granted the right. However on 1 March you created Leif Sylvester Petersen, which, even though it is transwikied could still have had the references included. For example, just Google searching his name and using Google Translate I found and  in the top 10. However I recognise where you're coming from so I'll say this, create a few more good, valid articles with no problems (which will take you up to 40 I believe) and I'll give you the autopatrolled right. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 13:44, 17 April 2014 (UTC)


 * I transwikied that from the Danish wiki and do not consider it an article I created. Anyways, I've added citations to resolve that issue. I've also noted in the talk page hoping for an editor with Danish background to provide additional citations as I am unclear as to what Danish sources are considered RS. I have an extensive history adding sources to tagged articles Jack Frost Ski Resort, Shawnee Mountain Ski Area, Camelback Mountain Resort, Plums in chocolate, Chocolate covered cherry, Nestopia, and others. I hope my efforts at improving Wikipedia are noticed and see autopatrol as a token of appreciation. The need to create a few more articles seems somewhat redundant and was hoping this resolves any issues. Valoem   talk   contrib  14:35, 17 April 2014 (UTC)


 * The problem is that the software considers that you did create the article so it would be marked as patrolled and it's quite conceivable that others wouldn't look at it. Whilst I definitely do appreciate your efforts I'm still on the fence as to whether I should grant it, which is why I wanted to see some more recent article creations. Let me think about it overnight and I'll have a more detailed look at some articles you've created and let you know tomorrow. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 15:25, 17 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Sounds good if I do not have time to add citations and always make a note or an announcement on project pages calling other editors to do so. Thanks for giving it a second look. Valoem   talk   contrib  15:46, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
