WP:AIV
Hi, I've removed your request for User:PowerClown123 to be blocked as he has not edited since 17 November. As he is not active, please make a request on WP:SSP. Thanks, Nakon  07:16, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Traditional Chinese
Hi, while you are most welcome to edit Singapore-related articles such as The Golden Path (drama), please do not add Chinese script in traditional characters as they are not used in Singapore. Thanks!--Huaiwei (talk) 07:08, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale Mac_Book_Air_Leopard
Agreed, the image is replaceable... but not until product release, please hold off on deletion until after product release. Johndbritton (talk) 19:49, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

I'll keep an eye on the The Golden Path (drama) page and see if the user decides to show up again.. If he does, I'll request a checkuser to have his IP blocked so he won't be able to make any more accounts. Come find me if he shows up again elsewhere and I'll see what I can do. Cowman109 Talk 07:14, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I had already blocked User:PowerClown123 indefinitely as another blatant sock.. I don't see any evidence that suggests he is otherwise. Cowman109 Talk 17:46, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

January 2008
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Barry m (talk) 07:17, 20 January 2008 (UTC) Warning was made in error.


 * Sorry about that, seems you were in the right. Is there a way of preventing account creation for True article for Honour and Passion?? Barry m (talk) 07:20, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Apology for the Alleged Edit War
Sorry Arbiteroftruth. I was the one who had reported you and HostileToVandals. I did not realize that the edit war was just an attempt to stop an abusive sockpuppet from making disruptive edits. --Salona (talk) 07:26, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Re: Juggernaut999, Other Affairs
Re your message: I'm not familiar with that particular sockpuppeteer, though it does sound vaguely familiar. With the account being inactive for so long, WP:ANI is not the appropriate place to report it. Instead, you should report it to WP:SSP.

As for your question about adminship, I remember you asking me about this last year and I think my comments then still apply now. I think you should find some part of Wikipedia that interests you where an admin work is required, such as RC patrolling, deletion discussions, policy discussions, etc. I think your assistance with ColourWolf is good, but you need to expand beyond him and his sockpuppets. Perhaps help with other sockpuppet reports? -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 23:01, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Requests for checkuser/Case/ColourWolf
I moved the RFCU case you opened to its proper name (we keep all requests about a puppeteer on a single page). -- lucasbfr  talk, checkuser clerk, 09:17, 22 January 2008 (UTC).

Good job
...on ColourWolf. I wasn't trying to be an ass, but I simply didn't know those plots. I've not seen many films in that genre and your analysis (plus the results of the CU) were very helpful. Thanks for helping to keep people accountable for their actions when they are in violation.

Culture of Egypt
Mind if I ask why my deletion of some content in that article was reverted? I did give an explanation in my edit summaries. The article is of course in a pretty bad state but I don't think that warrants keeping around what I deleted. Sincerely. 3rdAlcove (talk) 17:40, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

On 27 January 2008, you posted a vandalism warning on my talk page. What edits were you referring to? Strdst grl (talk) 18:35, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

ColourWolf Sockpuppetry
Very interesting. I've observed that you have reverted/deleted all the negative viewpoints of Singapore Wikipedia articles that the supposed ColourWolf user have voiced out. Is that good discussion on improving the integrity of Wikipedia? Isn't that what you are protecting as you voiced out to Administrators months ago?

Like I said, it doesn't matter I'm ColourWolf or not. I'm a Nosey Fellow who has nothing better to do other than reading articles, and happened to see the war of truth between you and ColourWolf which got pretty amusing - Both disputed contents and the war itself. You have no concrete evidence of suspecting me, and you probably never will.

I could simply give the reason for posting in that SGpedian section: I was bored and my hands itch at seeing how you refused to give thought to the idea of deleting those content-less Singapore articles. Have a nice day. Nosey Fellow (talk) 03:37, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Change to Len Munsil's Page
Arbiteroftruth: I noticed that you recently removed the reference on the Len Munsil page that divulged Munsil's position as an adjunct professor at Southwestern College. Why is that?

Sockpuppet?
Hiya. What's this about me being a sockpuppet? I looked at the checkuser page or whatever it's called and other than the fact this guy's used the name RedEyes at some point there isn't anything connecting us, as I've never edited the articles he was messing around with. Do I need to take any specific steps to prove my independence or anything? Thanks. EvilRedEye (talk) 15:14, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Re:Uncyclopedia FA Nom
Basically, your arguement revolves around the idea that giving the article on Uncyclopedia any recognition will give vandals recognition. That is not the case. If we followed WP:DENY completely, any website that harboured Wikipedia vandals would never get an article. Uncyclopedia is perfectly notable, as has been proven from its nine AFDs ( many of which one of which were was started by you, I believe). By attempting to follow WP:DENY completely, you're just contradicting yourself by violating WP:Notability. Rules are in place for a reason, and I don't usually ignore them unless neccesary, but following them threadbare won't get anything done. And by bringing in "the spirit of the rule", you're using WP:WL as your backbone, which is not a policy, it is an essay, so none of us are obliged to follow it.

Secondly, you did launch an attack. I quote from FAC: "Uncyclopedia editors have done nothing but creating damage and destruction on Wikipedia". Does that sound neutral? Not to me. It sounds like you're giving a blatant attack on Uncyclopedia editors. I cannot allow that, so of course I retailiated. I did not violate WP:AGF, I felt that there was evidence to the contrary- after it had been proven MANY TIMES that the article in question was notable, you continued to nominated it for deletion. As per my previous arguements, WP:DENY and WP:WL will not work in this case. Teh Rote (talk) 22:43, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Re your message: Thatcher is a checkuser. Since he has access to the checkuser results and I do not, you will need to ask him why he did not apply any blocks.  For the same reason, I would prefer to defer to Thatcher in this particular case. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:50, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:ASUDowntown.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:ASUDowntown.gif. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Media copyright questions.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:ATV Master logo.jpg}
Thank you for uploading Image:ATV Master logo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:
 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Re:Article Split proposal, Republic of China

 * I conditionally concur with your proposed Split, on grounds of available information on the ROC pre- and post-1949. Fr.Wikipedia.org kept pre-1949 stuff in the original Article fr:République de Chine and moved later material to fr:République de Chine (Taiwan), an alternate approach to your proposal.  An alternate approach would be the concentration of post-1949 material in a new Article Republic of China (Taiwan), with the pre-1949 (incl. the government structure under the Zūn Zhōngshān and Jiǎng Jièshí Administrations) data kept at the existing Republic of China Article.  Recommend redirect Chinese Taipei, used without international diplomatic circles, to the post-1949 Article. B. C. Schmerker (talk) 07:36, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
