List of Virtual Console games (North America)
Hello, I am unable to use the mediation request form for the VC game list article (NA) due to its current protection status. Can you assist us in starting this process? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. --Cheesemeister3k 08:39, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't quite understand your problem -- you do not need to edit the article to file a mediation request; the RFMF template should be placed on the talk page, not on the article page. Kusma (talk) 08:49, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Could you make an edit to the page? Zelda II: The Adventure of Link has been confirmed to be released this Monday (June 4 2007). Also, Dead Moon has been confirmed for this Monday . 2 games have been confirmed for the the VC, but have no release date yet: Milon's Secret Castle for the NES and Ecco: The Tides of Time for the Genesis, both rated E. TJ Spyke 22:06, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I've made a formal edit request for this, so hopefully someone will get to it sooner or later. -Arcanelore 00:31, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Don Fernando
Dear Kusma,

I am a public figure named Don Fernando and my page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Fernando ; from what I can gather, was started in November 2005 by somebody unknown to me. I was unaware that I was included on Wikipedia.org until last year. Everything was fine and dandy until recently someone unknown to me decided to vandalize my bio. I made a previous request recently to have an administrator "semi-protect" the user named "Dreamrelax" (who is unknown to me) from editing any section of my Wikipedia page as said 3 edits by "Dreamrelax" were malicious in nature; ref. "History"

I cite your page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Vandalism and hereby affirm that:

1) Dreamrelax is persistently making personal and defamatory attacks on my page and I; as a well-known living public figure, will not tolerate this; and

2) Dreamrelax "Userspace Vandalism" Adding insults, profanity, etc. to user pages or user talk pages (see also Wikipedia:No personal attacks) and citing as evidence  two of the defamatory and malicious edits: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Don_Fernando&diff=128804107&oldid=123104921

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Don_Fernando&diff=134495209&oldid=134199310

Your attention to this troubling personal matter would be greatly appreciated by me.

Sincerely, Don Fernando —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Donfernando (talk • contribs) 09:34, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I have warned the user already and he has not edited since. The diffs you gave are not to userspace (pages prefixed with "User:", for example, User:Kusma) but to article space. We can't semi-protect users, but we can block them (I will do that if the user continues to add unsourced negative material about you after warnings). We could semi-protect the page Don Fernando (semiprotection means that it can only be edited by accounts older than four days) but that doesn't seem like a good idea in this case, as most edits that come from unregistered users seem to be productive. Hope that helps, Kusma (talk) 09:44, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism of My Page
Kusma -

Thanks for your attention to my request. I looked at the tutorial on "Improving the Article" specifically; citing "reference and source" material. I am concerned since; as a director/producer of adult content, of a Catch 22 "conflict of interest" implication(s) arising if I place a URL of a company that I have an interest in and/or distributes a tile in my "Videography"...don't really want to break the Wikipedia rules...any suggestions?

Don Fernando
 * You should be able to find sources for the awards you have from sources independent from yourself (for example, the website of the organization giving out these prizes) and then cite those. If you need specific help by our pornography experts (who have developed guidelines for porn star articles), you might check out our pornography project or post a question on their talk page. Hope that helps, Kusma (talk) 10:44, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

The "Pornography Project"...sounds like a good title for a porn series :>) ...seriously...I am rusty and do not have too much time but will help in another way...Wikipedia Rocks!!!

Star Ocean Spoiler Removal
Although I understand the reasons behind the spoiler removal in the 'Plot' section, I can't understand why you did the same in the subsequent section, 'Characters'. As per stated in the 'Talk' page, I consider revealing the outcome of the character 'Ronixis J. Kenni' unacceptable since it also covers the sequel to Star Ocean. It's my opinion that a spoiler warning it's necessary until I have time to rewrote that section and remove the revealing statements. I read Wikipedia's spoiler guidelines, but I think that in this case, it's necessary. --Lashiec 16:32, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * For a ten year old game, I don't think spoiler warnings are necessary (and if the spoilers are about something else than the game at hand, you should think about whether they are necessary and remove the spoilers instead of giving a generic warning). Also, that section is written in unencyclopedic tone and is completely unreferenced, probably original research. In any case, more important than the issue of spoiler warnings is article quality, and the Characters sections reads like it comes from a game guide, not from an encyclopedia. Kusma (talk) 16:46, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * OK, so the rewrite part is actually needed. Thanks for the info. --Lashiec 16:57, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Could you please protect the Saint Ignatius College South australia page. The revert war is still going.203.122.236.1 07:46, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Could you plese protect the Saint Ignatius College South Australia page again. The revert war goes on.203.122.236.1 07:47, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Please fully protect
That unknown user still doesn't get what I am trying to tell her. I left her a relevant message on her talk page yet she doesn't agree.

Please fully protect it for quite a long time, without anything to do with Keogh on that page/

Thankyou219.90.179.30 08:11, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Please discuss the issue on the talk page instead of removing the comments of the other party, so a consensus can be reached. If no discussion is forthcoming but edit warring continues, I won't pay attention to whether Keogh is included on the page. Protection is not an endorsement of one version over the other. Kusma (talk) 17:19, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Don Fernando
Kusma -

I am going to have to insist on indefinite "semi-protection" as a result of repeated vandalism.

Don Fernando Asianman 11:01, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It's just one IP, I am watching it and will block it if necessary. Kusma (talk) 17:14, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

User:CholemWiener
I am quite sure it is him, no one else would redirect Gesellmann to Gesell. We have reverted all damage (typical stuff). I think that this time Heinrich Berté, Vojtěch Birnbaum, and Karl Alwin would be good G5 candidates, since he will probably come back to check on them soon. Category:Czech art historians seems ok but I still think it should be deleted per G5 since no one else has used it. shoeofdeath 18:40, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * All contributions are gone. I'm so tired of this... Kusma (talk) 06:44, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Haha, well done, perhaps one day he will stop this insanity. I was thinking of writing something on the talk page also but decided that this would not accomplish anything - he is obviously incapable of understanding what is going on. Hopefully he will stay away for more than two weeks this time...shoeofdeath 07:18, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

He is back as today. He also seems to be using SU's old memo lists, so I suggest deleting all pages in relation to Special:Allpages/User_talk:Sheynhertz-Unbayg, but that's your call. – sgeureka t•c 19:56, 4 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh dear. Perhaps another long-term blocking of his IP range is needed? shoeofdeath 20:04, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * All deleted, please keep me posted. He recently told me he's going to Vienna; if that is true, he isn't editing from his usual range anyway. His usual range is still softblocked. I am still uncertain about the subpages; sometimes they help to make it obvious who's editing. Kusma (talk) 05:28, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
 * He is indeed in Vienna. – sgeureka t•c 17:42, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
 * What do you mean? Both of those IPs are from Bratislava, Slovakia. What is he doing there? And how come you didn't get called a fool, sgeureka?! No fair. shoeofdeath 19:03, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The ISP seems to be from Vienna, no idea why the geolocator says Bratislava. It's pretty close, though. Happy editing to all fools and non-fools, Kusma (talk) 19:12, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Wow, he seems to be really focusing on that Birnbaum article. I wonder how long it will take him to realize that (a) Putting a template on a userpage doesn't actually ban the person and (b) Reverting the same page over and over makes it obvious who you are. And these sockpuppet names are getting less and less creative... shoeofdeath 00:15, 9 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Sigh... shoeofdeath 20:31, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Dealt with. Kusma (talk) 05:55, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

I don't know in how far this info is useful, but SU seems to have a static IP number this time. See the history of Birnbaum on June 5 and 11. Coincidence is just too unlikely otherwise. Maybe block for an unspecified time? – sgeureka t•c 19:50, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Should have still been autoblocked. Let's qait for a couple more and then file a checkuser request. Kusma (talk) 10:05, 12 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't know much about blocking procedures on WP, and I'm also not in a hurry, so this was just a suggestion/hint. It's just that the block log of this IP number was still empty (and it also doesn't show up in the Special:Ipblocklist). Oh, and wouldn't WP:RCU only work based on SU's old recorded IP numbers and ISPs? Because I don't think it's possible to find a RCU link between a banned user who edited from Japan, and the same editor who now edits from a completely different continent. (Except that the edit behavior is really suspicious, but we don't need RCU for that.) – sgeureka t•c 11:21, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I think he uses at least 2 IPs; the last autoblock was still active when he made that IP edit. As long as he is only a mild nuisance, I won't bother the checkusers with this. Kusma (talk) 11:45, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, what have we here?! A few more G5's, apparently. CheckUser is not needed at all here - his edits are too unique to be anyone else's. I would suggest some sort of protection on Birnbaum instead. Every one of his recent socks has gone directly to that article, so I am guessing he checks it regularly. Perhaps one of those big templates that says something like "this page is currently protected to prevent the sockpuppets of a banned user from editing it" would scare him away, at least for awhile. Seriously, check the history of that page - he has reverted it almost every day in June. It is getting a little bit ridiculous. And I have no idea what went on here, haha. Perhaps a misguided attempt at concealing his identity? shoeofdeath 00:32, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I think he just mistakenly clicked the "redirect" button instead of the "sign" button on the edit toolbar (are they close to each other? I've disabled the toolbar a long time ago). As an experiment, I have sprotected Birnbaum for a month and slapped an ugly template on the article as you suggested. Happy editing, Kusma (talk) 07:04, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I have filed a request anyway: Requests for checkuser/Case/Sheynhertz-Unbayg. Kusma (talk) 11:53, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Actually I was wondering about the comment itself ("I think Lajos Szücs is righteus") which I found very strange and a little humorous. A CheckUser couldn't hurt, especially since I missed two recent socks (Oskar Strnad is one he watches also, should have seen that). I would push for the deletions of the tiny villages (Koperniki and Nová Cerekev) as well - there are about 30-40 one sentence stubs like these which only exist because some Jewish person he was interested in was born there. I have never seen another person add content or translate one of these, but I suppose it doesn't really matter anyway. It has really been crazy with the sockpuppets lately but I am pretty confident that this silliness will stop once he goes back to Japan. Perhaps he doesn't have access to as many computers there because he never went this nuts with the ban-evasion during the 10 or so months he was banned. In any case, keep a watchful eye. shoeofdeath 17:27, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

ICSZ
Kusma,

You blocked our school from editing yesterday - with good reason. I have identified the culprits, and they are being dealt with. But I need some help to stay on top of this. A few weeks ago, Netsnipe set up an RSS feed on our Talk page, but that only alerts me to you guys warning and blocking us. By the time I got your message yesterday, school was out, and the kids were gone. What I need is an RSS feed on our Contributions page, so that I am alerted as soon as anyone in the school changes a page. I asked Netsnipe, and he has referred my request to Wikitech-1, but I have not heard any further. Any other suggestions?

Also, as we are an International School, I need to do the same with de, fr, it, nl wikis and others. Haven't started on that yet. Are you also a DE moderator? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ICSZ (talk • contribs)
 * I assume that this is about . Unfortunately I have no idea whether there is a way to get a contributions RSS feed. And no, I am not an administrator on the German Wikipedia. Sorry not to be able to be more helpful, Kusma (talk) 06:48, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

List of Virtual Console games (North America)
I just wanted to give you a heads-up that I reduced the protection a little early because there were several editprotected requests on the talk page and there were current events that weren't reflected in the article. I hope you don't mind, however, feel free to re-protect the article if you do. Cheers. --MZMcBride 02:27, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair enough (re: the user you didn't block)
The edits did seem to be consistent with a serial nuisance from Wookieepedia who's also been seen here impersonating administrators and harassing people, but it is better that the person being impersonated reports it. Cheers, &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 12:11, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Saint Ignatius College, South Australia

 * Protected. No fixed ending this time, let's see what comes up in the discussion. Kusma (talk) 18:49, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi again, Could you protect the Henry Keogh page again please. The revert war continues.

Thanks, 203.122.236.1 12:15, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I have decided to edit the page instead, so I am now no longer a neutral party that can decide about protection. Please use WP:RFPP instead. The article was in very poor shape, concentrating exclusively on details of the last appeals case and with many uncited details (including the school information). Wikipedia is not a news service.

Dear, thank you for you efforts to build consensus on my RfA. As you know, it was unsuccessful. I am not the type of editor to be disheartened by such a result, and have gained much experience.

I will run again, however I am concerned that I may see your name in the same place, for the same reasons. I would greatly appreciate knowing what I could do to earn your support next time.

If you have anything to contribute by way of improvements or comments, please don’t hesitate to tell me. Kind regards, Dfrg.msc 00:34, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Removing spoiler warning from Wario: Master of Disguise
Why did you remove the spoiler warning from Wario: Master of Disguise even after it was specifically requested? Bilge [ TC] 00:53, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It was in a section clearly titled "Storyline" that can be expected to give out plot details, so the warning was unnecessary per our guideline at Spoiler. Kusma (talk) 05:18, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello,

A request for arbitration has been filed regarding the conduct of Certified.Gangsta.

Saint Ignatius College, South Australia
Hi. I'm the person who asked for protection on the Saint Ignatius College, South Australia page. I am extremely fed up on how reliable wikipedia is, as I see all the time that users of wikipedia are feeding articles false information that is nearly half-right. Okay, Keogh went to the Saint Ignatius College, South Australia school and I was fine if that person who can't even create an account so we don't have to disturb all the people who use her same IP kept the fact that Keogh attended the school on his page, but I think that she is trying to drag down the school with him by organising little tea-parties and telling everybody what school he went to. There are thousands of prisoners who went to schools, but I've been looking on many school's pages on wiki and have found no mention of a murderer who went there. In the end, he isn't notable in the first place so why should he be considered to be put on the page in "Notable Alumini". Wjs13 11:14, 14 June 2007 (UTC) —comment added by 219.90.184.65(t/c)
 * This discussion belongs at Talk:Saint Ignatius College, South Australia more than on my talk page. Currently Henry Keogh isn't mentioned as an alumnus on Saint Ignatius College, South Australia by an application of the WP:BLP rule that I interpret as removal of the unsourced claim that Henry Keogh is a murderer.
 * I personally don't really care who is mentioned in the Alumni section on that page, and do not have enough knowledge about the situation to know who should be mentioned. On the talk page, another IP argued that it is very interesting to see that several people connected to this murder case all attended this school. That may be true. Wikipedia's verifiability policy WP:V asks us to prove this from reliable sources. Are recent publications about the school interested in this connection? If not, it could be argued that this is an original synthesis of facts, which Wikipedia doesn't publish. If most recent (since the murder) sources about the school mention this connection, it would violate Wikipedia's neutrality policy to omit it. Which of these is true I do not know, but again, the place for discussing all this is the article talk page Talk:Saint Ignatius College, South Australia. Kusma (talk) 11:32, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

So in the end, you aren't going to bother answering my questions. I cannot believe this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.90.184.65 (talk • contribs)
 * Henry Keogh is currently not listed in the Alumni section of that page. I have listed reasons that could be given to include him, but am not sure that they apply; that could be discussed on the article talk page with all interested editors. Which questions do you want me to answer? Kusma (talk) 07:21, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I have asked some questions on the article talk page, and would really prefer if you could use that page to talk to all editors of the article instead of addressing me personally about an issue that concerns the article content more than my personal behavior. Kusma (talk) 12:56, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Munich redirect
It's not the deletion itself that the problem. The fact that the project wasn't informed about this. Does Wikipedia expect to gain respect when it's own proccess doesn't respect? Kingjeff 20:48, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The redirect was properly tagged for deletion; the tagging should have shown up on your watchlist. Process was followed. The only thing that should perhaps have been done is to fix all the links through that redirect so they don't show up as red. That should take about 10 minutes by hand or 3 with AWB. Kusma (talk) 06:38, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

What?
Please look up the word spam in the dictionary. It wasn't a personal site for starters and it was a useful link that wasn't included on the page.

You said you hadn't seen a discussion on a talk page justifying insertion of a spoiler tag. Well here is one instance of what passes for "discussion" on the matter. There are more. A bit pointless, really. --Tony Sidaway 12:04, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, there are some discussions, but they are quite rare. I am not convinced that the "exceptional cases" approach is working; people seem to prefer hard rules. I think "no spoiler warnings" makes more sense as a guideline and is easier to understand than "spoiler warnings in 5 exceptional articles". Kusma (talk) 12:08, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Spoiler warnings MedCab
Hi there. There is an ongoing mediation cabal case on the topic of spoiler warnings. One of the primary concerns raised in the case centres around the mass-removals of templates, which you and David Gerard were apparently responsible for. You have since been named as an involved party in the case, although I don't think anyone has yet told you as such. Since this seems to be the currently accepted place for trying to resolve the dispute over use of spoiler warnings, and since you are named in the dispute, please come and try to help us reach a compromise. -Kieran 12:08, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I have noticed the case and am following the discussion, but currently don't have much to add to it. My statement at the RfAr is a short summary of how I see what has happened. I am a bit sick of dicussing this after six weeks and somewhat busy IRL these days, but will keep an eye on it. Kusma (talk) 12:41, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Portal:Germany/New_article_announcements#New_images
I recently added a new image onto the announcements board. I'm not sure if the announcement is formatted in the preferred way. Could you take a look and reformat if needed? Thanks. bär lin er Diskuschoon 23:22, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

SU
Hallo Kusma, nach längerer Pause ist SU in der de.WP wieder aktiv. Das [] war ebenfalls SU, auch wenn es eine Adresse aus Wien ist. Der Typ scheint umgezogen zu sein. Gruß []
 * Ja, ich weiß, er hat mir geschrieben, daß er zur Zeit in Wien ist. Ich vermute, daß er am Ende des Sommers nach Japan zurückgeht, weiß aber nichts Näheres. Die letzte Woche war er hier anscheinend ganz ruhig, aber er kommt bestimmt wieder. Viele Grüße, Kusma (talk) 09:07, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Er scheint mir recht aktiv zu sein, habe noch weitere IPs und und Benutzernamen in der de.WP gefunden, sowie den hier: Winternitz von User:Gerst. Er hat sich verstärkt Wiener Namen zugewandt.  Gruß  Eynre


 * Ich häng mich gleich hier rein und melde zum Beobachten. Er hat bisher noch nichts großartiges verbrochen, weist aber ein ungewöhnlich suspektes SU-Edit-Verhalten auf (er hat innerhalb von einer anderhalben Stunde sechs SU Artikel bearbeitet und ist deswegen in meiner Watchlist aufgefallen): fügt Massen an unnötigen Redlinks für Titel und Personen zu   , interessiert sich für Nachnamen und benutzt als Edit-summary "(from de)"    , interessiert sich für Östereich-Tschech(i)en-Juden , hat zumindest grundlegende Japanischkenntnisse , mag das Erschaffen von Redirects  sowie Kategorien  und kennt sich auch sonst sehr gut mit alten stub tags aus, die aber mittlerweile anders angewendet werden als noch vor einem Jahr, weswegen er im Moment dab pages zweckentfremdet und "verunstaltet" (meine Meinung). Bisher aber wie gesagt nichts außerordentlich schlimmes dabei, er ist auch kein hit-and-run sockpuppet wie man es sonst gewohnt ist, aber (potentielles) Ban-evading ist auch nicht so toll. Noch schnell hinzugefügt: Im Moment erschafft er Redirects für Variationen von Nachnamen, und AGF fällt mir immer schwerer. – sgeureka t•c 18:11, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Wahrscheinlich SU, ja. Ich kümmere mich später oder morgen darum. Kusma (talk) 13:45, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Er ist gesperrt, aber ich habe nicht alles revertiert. Kusma (talk) 11:13, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Das war auch SU []. Du hast Winternitz und User:Gerst noch nicht gesperrt. Gruß Eynre
 * Chleborad ist gesperrt; Gerst scheint sowieso nicht mehr benutzt zu werden. Kusma (talk) 09:28, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Can I talk to you about getting the Saint Ignatius College, South Australia page unblocked
Hi, I'm Wjs13 that person who seems to be fighting an ongoing battle with some other un-signed up user. Can I please ask for the Saint Ignatius College, South Australia page to be unblocked. I can't work out on the List of page's to be protected thing how to get the page unblocked, or protest it. However, I only want it to be unblocked if that other unknown user stops polluting a page with the murderers on the alumni. The school has nothing to do with it other than the fact he is known to have attended the school for several years. It looks a bit weird going to that page and seeing that it is blocked for a dispute which clearly is just an argument that everybody who visits the page seems to be joining in, and people don't need to be told that a school article is having an argument against it on whether a murderers name is allowed to be on it!

I can't talk to that other person who keeps editing those articles and putting those facts that I clearly am not happy with since she/he doesn't want to. Can you please leave a message - I am consulting you about this since you are the only admin who probably has heard about this.

Wjs13 23:32, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
 * There is no way to unprotect a page and disallow the "pollution". As I said on Talk:Saint Ignatius College, South Australia, I can see good reasons not to include the murderer. However, I will not act against any consensus that emerges on Talk:Saint Ignatius College, South Australia. Wikipedia administrators do not make content decisions; content decisions are usually made by local consensus on the article's talk page. Anyway, if nothing more comes out of that discussion, I'll probably just try and unprotect and hope for the best. Kusma (talk) 15:02, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I have unprotected the page. Kusma (talk) 09:46, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Spoiler warning RFA

Your report at WP:AIV
I can't see evidence of obvious vandalism (intentionally damaging Wikipedia) in the edits of Frightner that I reviewed. This seems to be a (rather heated) content dispute, and a dispute about which sources are acceptable. However, I have blocked Frightner for edit warring. Please report similar incidents (violations of the three-revert rule) to the three-revert rule board in the future instead of accusing legitimate editors of vandalism. Thank you, Kusma (talk) 11:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Oops... I'm sorry. I saw the history of the page, saw the user's edit summaries, and misunderstood what it was. I thought it was vandalism when it was not, based on the user's actions... I'll be a bit more careful next time. Thanks for the heads up! Gscshoyru 11:30, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Energy portal review
Hi Kusma. Knowing that you have an interest in an unconnected featured portal, I wondered if you might like to comment on the one I've been working on - energy portal - which is now under consideration for featured status. Compared to other candidates it has had relatively few people contributing to the debate, despite being up for discussion for 2 months. If you have time perhaps you would like to take a look? The candidate page can be found here. Gralo 18:43, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
