Question on Warnings
Hello! Sorry to bother, but I wanted to get your opinion on Warnings.

Specifically, would it make sense for me to issue a Level 1 Warning relating to inappropriate humor against an editor who made a small but sarcastic crack designed to belittle a comment I made in a WQA resolution conversation – a conversation where that editor was supposed to be offering unbiased moderation.

The mediation thread is here:. I initiated the complaint against someone that I believed was a potential troll. This person acknowledged having no knowledge of the subject prior to his posting, to which I commented that I only edit articles where I have a knowledge of the article’s subject.

The mediating editor then went to the page in question, fixed a tiny typo, but added a sarcastic comment that was designed (I believe) to ridicule my comment about subject knowledge. It is the top edit on this page:.

Unless I am mistaken, this is inappropriate humor designed solely to belittle my opinion -- especially when this editor is supposed to be unbiased and acting in good faith. What I wanted to know is (1) am I justified in issuing a Level 1 warning based on this, and (2) can I issue the warning directly or does a third party who is not involved in this dispute have to come in and do that?

I need to point out this editor issued a Level 1 warning against me at the conclusion of the mediation, but only issued a very soft message of caution against the person I saw as a perceived troll. I disputed the action, claiming the editor was not acting in good faith and showed very clear bias. The editor later acknowledged his decision was incorrect on his User page, but immediately removed that text from display when I called it to his attention.

In the scheme of things, it is incredibly small pickings. Still, I was interested in getting feedback on how to proceed.

Thanks! Ecoleetage (talk) 15:54, 1 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, but I don't do well with this sort of thing. I would advice posting this to WP:AN/I. The folks there are much better at this sort of thing than I will ever be. Cheers,   Dloh  cierekim  15:56, 1 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I appreciate your feedback. But in your opinion, should I just let this issue die or does it make sense to voice my unhappiness over this matter on that board?  Be honest, I am open to your advice.  Thanks.  Ecoleetage (talk) 16:04, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Welcome Edit
Mike, Thanks for the welcome, and especially the links. As you must know, this site is very convoluted, and takes alot of research in order to navigate. Hopefully some day the developers will put some code together so that it is more intuitive. I am researching how signatures are done, without luck. There must be a simple was to setup the long text strings that many such as you use, any hints?TomPhan (talk) 15:40, 2 February 2008 (UTC) Thank you, I will try. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TomPhan (talk • contribs) 23:09, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

User:89.216.188.69
Seeing as you've dismissed my report, saying that the user has been inactive for three hours, well he's back now and I can't follow him around, reverting his edits. The user has a long history of vandalizing footballers' infoboxes. Please block him now, although I believe you should have done that straight away. I've also checked his activity on the Serbian wikipedia and it doesn't seem to be any better. Cheers. Ban Ray  19:48, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * The user is an established vandal, and what is worst, he seems to hit wikipedia where it hurts, since such vandalism is usually overlooked. In fact I think I'm the only one who cleans up his mess. You decided to remove my report, fair enough, but what we have here now is a vandal who has been around for some four months doing the same sort of vandalism day after day and yet he gets away with it because no one can nab him right there. He'll be back tomorrow and I'll revert him, no problem really, takes a few minutes with twinkle, and then the day after tomorrow, maybe that's the way it should be, I don't know. Sure you can't check AIV 24/7, but neither can I follow the guy around. The block log comes in handy in such cases. I'd be glad to report him while he's still active, but that's quite unlikely, as I've already said, I've got some other stuff to do apart from wikipedia, and, unfortunately or maybe fortunately, I can't sit here all day waiting for him to edit/vandalize a page. Cheers. Ban  Ray  22:33, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, that was a little confusing. I did not want to have it deleted. I wanted to add the "hangon" response, and it looked to me as if your edits did not effectively remove the speedy tag.

Perhaps this was because you had a stray ] in your redirect, or because all the text still followed the redirect line, and the software was confused.

Or perhaps I was just too hasty ...

But just to clear things up, we were both trying to achieve the same thing: Keep the article as a redirect.

Tagging for a possible copyvio image
Hello, I've been asked by an editor to review his contribs, and I'm not sure what template to use for an image that may be a copyvio. Also, is it appropriate to consider an image a possible copyvio just because it's of high quality, or do you need to have found it on the web first? For instance, Image:Uniplex PSA.jpg. Thanks. Dloh  cierekim  Deleted?  23:28, 6 February 2008 (UTC) Oops. rather, which is the correct user notification tag to place on the creator's page. Thaks  Dloh  cierekim  Deleted?  23:32, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * High-resolution images are less likely to be copyright violations because re-users often re-use the lower quality copies, not needing the high resolution. As far as Image:Uniplex Landrover.jpg and Image:Uniplex PSA.jpg, I would assume good faith that they were taken by the uploader. If you still have doubts, I suggest that you ask the uploader to clarify.


 * Even if an image is found on another web site without attribution to Wikipedia, it is hard to tell whether or not that web site is violating copyright or whether the person who uploaded the image to Wikipedia is violating copyright.


 * Use pui for possibly unfree images. —Remember the dot (talk) 23:41, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

White people
I don't know of any story. It just seems an anoyed anon user with some sort fo agenda regarding Argentina. The Ogre (talk) 00:42, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

White People
The user Dúnadan has removed my entire paragraph of text and replaced it with his, with no reason whatsoever. If you follow his edits, you can clearly see that he has an agenda, as he has been reverting and removing sections from articles concerning Argentine demographics all across the wiki.

I consider my original text was apropiate for the article, yet the one posted by the Dúnadan is a clear copy-paste of what he typed into Demographics of Argentina. In both articles, Dúnadan has reintroduced the controversial UBA study that says 56% of Argentines have amerindian descent. This study has been proven wrong by many others, such as, as well as arguments explaining that the supposed "amerindian" markers analized are also present in Spanish and Galician populations, of which Argentina has plenty of descendants.

As a result, the UBA study was considered too controversial, and a consensus was reached to keep it out of the Demographics of Argentina article. Yet this user has been adding it again, and even worse, HAS REWRITTEN MY COUNTRIBUTION WITH NO REASON WHATSOEVER, as he basically posted the same information with a different rewording.

I've made more than 500 contributions to the Wiki, with a dynamic IP, but it's pretty sad to see that so many editors are willing to side against an anonymous editor simply because he's anonymous. I guess I'll have to create a nickname for myself, even though that undermines the purpose of the Wiki itself.

Please take a look on this info I gave you. The genetic study has no bearing whatsoever in the article, unless you also want to include genetic studies on Canada, the USA, Brazil, or Australia, which also show similar levels of admixture. Regards,

--200.117.168.68 (talk) 00:50, 8 February 2008 (UTC)


 * My reply Dloh  cierekim  Deleted?  01:07, 8 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Dlohcierekim. I will like to point out just a couple of points concerning 200.117's claims:
 * The "UBA" study, is a study conducted by the Genetics Department of the University of Buenos Aires, whose findings have been corroborated by numerous studies; these findings were also accepted by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology of the Government of Argentina., . This study has not been challenged by the Academic community, so there is no "Academic" controversy. The only controversy is that of some Wikipedian users (like the above) who happen to dislike or disagree with the results. I have invited some of them (I have never met 200.117) to provide equally reliable sources to prove that the UBA study has been "proven wrong" other than their own opinions (the link he provides is broken, and other links provided in the past related to discussion amongst geneticists of general genetic tests not on Argentina's particular case). One user actually provided the link to the Ministry of Education which ends up with the following words:
 * ""The information herein summarized is based on scientific observations that allow [us] to redefine the belief in the purported European origin of all the inhabitants of the Argentine territory. According to our results, and many others, generated by different research groups in our country, we can confirm a substantial genetic contribution of the original peoples of the Americas into the current constitution of the Argentine population. Researches of this kind tend to contribute to the characterization of our country's identity in a respectful and anti-discriminatory way" (end of quote).
 * A similar discussion took place at the Spanish Wikipedia with the involvement of several users. (Part of the systemic bias at the English Wikipedia is that there are just a few Argentine users not precisely representative of the entire population). There, the users agreed that the studies were valid, and therefore the information was not only kept at es:Argentina, but a new comprehensive and very informative article was created concerning the Argentine genetic composition es:Composición étnica de Argentina.
 * I will also like to point out that I did not delete his "source". In fact, his source (which happens to be the CIA Factbook) is included in the first sentence of my edits. I simply expanded and complemented the information presented.
 * I will copy this paragraph to Talk:White American and Talk:Demographics of Argentina and will welcome your opinion on the matter. I would be happy to respond any questions and participate in the debate as long as the results and consensus actually complies with Wikipedia's policies of WP:NOR, WP:Verifiability and WP:NPOV.
 * -- the D únadan 01:20, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your response. I am aware of the Dispute Resolution venue, even though, in my past experience, it has been of very little help. Honestly, I don't think this issue merits Dispute Resolution. When an edit is comprehensive and fully reliable, and the other is POV and not referenced, I think that the latter clearly violates Wikipedia's three core principles.
 * -- the D únadan 01:28, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your reply. I've adopted a username and will try to follow your advice. Regards,

Hi Dlohcierekim i have been looking forward the article white people and this particular user the D únadan  who has been editing all the articles with the UBA study made surprisingly in all white and demographics articles about Argentina I personally think we should report it as vandalism because he cannot just appear and erase all our contributions just because he wants to put a racist study against Argentina and all ending up in a great discution because that's what he has created..well I wait your opinion

RE: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Seresin
Dloh, you've been completely civil in our disagreement on the issue. And Seresin, i've never really interacted with, but I know if he'd ever posted like others have, we'd have seen a lot of diffs. I really have nothing against the nom, and certainly nothing against those who've voted to support. With RfA we're called to look at what's on the table and support or oppose. That's all I was trying to do. I was troubled by a couple things on the record, and then was moved to oppose by Dorfrottel. I never typed the first post with the intention to start a fight.--Cube lurker (talk) 16:59, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

RFA/MBisanz
Hi. In the context of RfA, nom generally refers to the nominator, as opposed to referring to the nominee, which I believe was what you were referring to in your oppose comment at Requests for adminship/MBisanz. Do you mind changing instances of it, to avoid confusion, to either "candidate" or the candidate's username? Cheers, Spebi 06:38, 9 February 2008 (UTC) Oh, and could you respond here, please? :) Spebi 06:38, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Silly me. Almost years of RfA's, and I always thought "nom" referred to the person nominated. People even complain of the nom's sig. Will do.(Clarified on RfA, too) Thanks and happy editing. Dloh  cierekim  Deleted?  21:54, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Proxies
I suspect that this question has come to mind because of a recent post I made in WP:RfA. The point that I was trying to make, subtly, was that - at least to my knowledge - there is no situation in wikipedia where proxies can be enabled, and indeed, precious few situations where voting takes place (if we stipulate that AfD and RfA are not votes). My intention was to see how the applicant responded. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 16:29, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

I would stand by my !vote regardless of the "explanation" regarding socking.  Actually, if I recall correctly you moved to oppose based on RP's diffs, also pre-CU.  So, no worries there.

Thanks for your contribution to this, with the prod tag for the user page. I know Wikipedia isn't this individual's webhost for notes to his fellow employees, but I can't think of a reason to speedy his/her user/user talk page. Would this possibly qualify as non-encyclopedic nonsense, or simply as WP:SNOWBALL?

Kosovo (UNMIK)
I'm trying to achieve consensus within this article to have it merged. Since you participated in the AfD discussion, the consensus of which is disputed, I wondered if you would like to comment on the new discussion I am holding on the article's talk page. I am contacting all editors who participated in the AfD regardless of their vote in the interest of fairness. - Fritzpoll (talk) 22:10, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Perry Belcher article

 * This is not a soap. It is not a personal attack. It is a documentation following days of research on this guys extensive scam. This is the perfect place to spread knowledge about world-wide scams of this sort. This information is further supported by the FDA, the BBB, FBI, and the list goes on.... Thatopshotta (talk)

Dlohcierekim's sock
Hey Dloh, I received a message on my talk page from User talk:Dlohcierekim's sock inquiring about my WP:RfA criteria. Is this an alternate version of you? Your nemesis, your paradox, your alterego perhaps? Just letting you know I responded. : )  Wisdom89  ( T |undefined /  C ) 19:44, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Selmedica
Hi there! I am from the Perry Belcher article if you need reminding. I initated the Selmedica article as I said I will. I am hoping for your review, and possibly I can update as the need fits if needed. I am asking this to you, and DGG, so that I can possibly fix or update it as necessary, at least to warrant a stay, until the article can be edited to fit a more comprehensible english style. All thoughts appreciated. If you can leave a link (like I learned from you on how to do) on my discussion page when you reply :) Thanks. Thatopshotta (talk) 02:23, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Self-limiting administrators
I have been working to formalize the concept behind my userbox. When you get a chance, could you please take a look at User:Bovlb/Self-limiting administrators and tell me if you think I'm on the right track? Thanks, Bovlb (talk) 05:23, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Huh? - Up for deletion? Rudget . 15:49, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

No problem
Funny how they manage to dig their own graves. Sure makes wikilife easy, though. Natalie (talk) 15:34, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Little black ant
I followed the source link and found it to be verifiable. Turns out it's a species of ant, Monomorium minimum. Cheers, and happy editing! Dloh  cierekim  20:34, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * PS. I agree with Kim's advice above. You might want to read through a little more looking for the sense of the article. Not all editors produce good work on their first edit. This was clearly not nonsense. It even has a verifiable source link. Cheers,  Dloh  cierekim  20:38, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * This one is completely my fault indeed. I wanted to tag this one for wikifying and references, yet it seems i mixed up two firefox tabs. Guess i tagged some article that was not notable with cleanup tags, and this one with a CSD tag. Simply a mixup. Excirial ( Talk, Contribs ) 21:49, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Tiptoety's oppose
Maybe I missed a comment, but it looked like the last one was about "back to neutral" and his sig was still struck out from the oppose vote above it. Hopefully he'll notice and fix it if its wrong. <strong style="color:#000;background:#fff;border:0px solid #000">Avruch <strong style="color:#000;background:#fff;border:0px solid #000"> T 00:28, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Michael Willis (American Actor)
Another editor has added the  template to the article Michael Willis (American Actor), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the  template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
