Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Thank you.

 * Thank you. I removed the content I added after reviewing it. I see you have been using your sandbox for writing formal requests. NoelveNoelve (talk) 18:54, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 19:11, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Please do not ignore the advice you have given. Proper names are capitalised. The vast majority are non-proper names of the same nouns, not capitalised, because the same nouns are not proper nouns. Thank you and your Wikipedia sandbox. NoelveNoelve (talk) 19:17, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , hi, you must be new here. I am the one giving you advice, because I know our policies and guidelines. Please review MOS:CAPS for an overview of how to capitalize words. You are not capitalizing proper nouns in this case. Elizium23 (talk) 19:19, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 * The words capitalised reference proper names. "Not every noun or a noun phrase that refers to a unique entity is a proper name. Chastity, for instance, is a common noun, even if chastity is considered a unique abstract entity." I have left common nouns un-capitalised. I have left unique *abstract* entities uncapitalised. These are proper names of unique entities. The Metropolis... etc... references the unique entity of the Glasgow Metropolis without prefixing Glasgow to it. When metropolitans are referenced abstractly they all are non-capitalised. You've got your tail up because I removed content. No more. Thank you. NoelveNoelve (talk) 19:30, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to remove maintenance templates without resolving the problem that the template refers to, as you did at Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow, you may be blocked from editing.   Elizium23 (talk) 15:18, 11 June 2021 (UTC)


 * I've not disruptively edited anything. I removed the tags with the correct procedure. Let me post on the talk page! NoelveNoelve (talk) 15:21, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * , you posted random crap on the talk page casting WP:ASPERSIONS on me personally. Try to be civil and stick to commenting on the content. If you have something to say about the need of a source, then talk about the need of a source, not my actions. Elizium23 (talk) 15:26, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * The user is now moving from overly-formal language to bad language. NoelveNoelve (talk) 15:34, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Elizium23 (talk) 16:04, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

You wrote on the talk page whilst I edited the original page informing you I was editing the talk page! Do you know what happens then? It doesn't post! NoelveNoelve (talk) 16:08, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow, you may be blocked from editing. DrKay (talk) 13:21, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Please take this further. I'm sure following me from one page to another will do you a world of good! NoelveNoelve (talk)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow. DrKay (talk) 13:24, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

 You have been blocked temporarily from editing for persistently adding unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

DrKay (talk) 13:30, 19 June 2021 (UTC)


 * "If you wish to argue that you were not disruptive, then do so..."

I have done so within the edit logs. NoelveNoelve (talk) 14:07, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
 * You are free to make another unblock request. 331dot (talk) 22:51, 19 June 2021 (UTC)


 * You repeatedly added unsourced content to Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow. You were repeatedly asked for a citation and repeatedly warned about adding unsourced content and removing maintenance templates. You continued to add the content and remove the maintenance templates despite those warnings. You still have not produced any sources for that content either on the article itself or on the article talk page. DrKay (talk) 04:46, 20 June 2021 (UTC) Amended 05:35, 20 June 2021‎ (UTC)


 * By the standards you have set there you've failed. You did not add a source request on Mary Queen of Scots. You immediately deleted the content and said it wasn't sourced. I added sources. You deleted it again. Not only did I provide sources but a completely new page, John Black (martyr) that has been edited by multiple users now with even more sources. Yet again, you've deleted content on Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow, hounded me out in a hunt, on a completely separate topic, without asking for sources with a template, and deleted content. And what's more, there, there is talk page discussion on the topics with my having deleted content myself that I had previously added when asked by a user. I have not removed maintenance templates repeatedly, I have gone to the talk page, and asked that a user focus on one issue at a time, after accepting the removal of content on the first(!) occasion. Within that talk page discussion there is actually agreement that two-thirds of your deletion is commonly attributed and doesn't need sourced. Again, in the only novel element you've done, you've deleted content on non-talk page related content without adding any template, or discussion, and instead acted as if location is a basic concept. It's not. Glasgow is not within a United Kingdom Roman Catholic authority. It is in the United Kingdom. The only way of balancing the two elements of geographical location with authoritative location is via the Holy See.NoelveNoelve (talk) 05:14, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * The only thing I can add is that the user Elizium23 has consistently said I was removing maintenance tags when in fact I have removed other non-maintenance tags, and removed those tags with the correct procedure, merely requiring talk page discussion.NoelveNoelve (talk) 05:53, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Please note, the current user DrKay is now back editing their talk page discussion adding edit log references after the fact that don't reflect their initial post, or the adding of tags in the discussion with Elizium23, and makes it look like tags have been added on 3 occasions when they they were added twice. On the first occasion of the first tag deletion my edit log shows that I referred to the talk page, this is entirely in keeping with the procedure of removing that specific tag (not a maintenance tag). The user concerned did not go to the talk page. Instead they reverted. That is not in keeping with procedure. The second tag was added in that revert. It was not added by anyone else. It was not reverted after talk page discussion. I actually prefigured my talk page discussion by referencing the fact that the user was not keen on resolving a previous issue via the talk page, constructively, and had moved on elsewhere. The user then edited the talk page whilst I was editing a much larger post than you see now, that was chewed up because they added to the talk page after the revert (that they should not have done after my asking they refer to the talk page). An edit cannot be made when someone has added in between, because that overwrites their addition. So I asked for calm, and radically shortened my edit.
 * Again, the current user DrKay instead of seeing talk page discussion did not even revert to the template asking for sources. They deleted the content, as they had done elsewhere on Mary Queen of Scots a completely separate topic, and previously, without asking for sources via a template, but instead deleted the content with an edit log saying the content was unsourced. I sourced the content. They redeleted. Subsequently a completely new page was started by me on the topic John Black (martyr) that has now been edited by multiple users who have added even more sources, and the original content added on Mary Queen of Scots has gained consensus from multiple users.
 * I have not at any point been belligerent. I have requested talk page discussion. Not only that but the wrong inferences have been made about precisely what tags I removed, and what the procedure is for removing and reaching consensus via the talk page.
 * No account has been taken of how the debates unfolded. And it looks increasingly as if DrKay has thought there is no smoke without fire after seeing a conflagration and deduced one thing from an ongoing debate that others would not.NoelveNoelve (talk) 06:26, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * And, I may add, with a certain level of resentment over the article on Mary Queen of Scots, where they subsequently followed me onto Archdiocese of Glasgow seeking some kind of respite from not asking for sources correctly and engaging in an edit war deleting content, and redeleting it when they asked for sources and they were provided. And now those sources are provided superabundantly by multiple users other than myself. NoelveNoelve (talk) 06:41, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * There is a lot of detail here DrKay, Elizium23. Neither of you appear to agree with each other, nor do you appear interested in resolving a conflict when I haven't done anything wrong. If I have sought talk page resolution, it's been ignored, and you insist on ignoring the unblock request, how can I be said to have engaged in conflict? You're heading on a collision course with me, and one of you has already hounded me on several pages. Someone needs to bring in another admin. NoelveNoelve (talk) 09:19, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what you mean by "ignoring the unblock request". I have clearly responded above. I am also not sure what you mean by "bring in another admin". As explained at Blocking policy, "the purpose of an unblock request is to obtain review from a third party". DrKay (talk) 10:11, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * You have not "clearly responded above." You are citing an admin that disagrees with you. You are calling citation templates, maintenance templates. You are demanding sources via deletion that when provided are deleted. You are saying I did not seek talk page resolution appropriately for a citation template, when you clearly read it after the fact. Your whole demeanour in following me from another page and using someone elses ongoing discussion (who disagrees with you) is a betrayal of your angry response from the first page. You've not once addressed the facts. You've said someone else's facts are yours. NoelveNoelve (talk) 10:41, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * And they are not even your facts from Mary Queen of Scots where you intially followed me in from! NoelveNoelve (talk) 12:42, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, NoelveNoelve. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Elizium23 (talk) 19:37, 9 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Goodbye. I do not live in the area directly concerned. And if I did, and I don't, I just put it qualifiably second in a list of a complicated process of determining an order of precedence with multiple caveats. If you have nothing more to say on proper names please leave me alone. I left precisely the same word roots uncapitalised in the same paragraph... because they are not proper names.

Speedy deletion nomination of John Black (martyr)


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on John Black (martyr) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

DrKay (talk) 10:26, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. DrKay (talk) 10:30, 24 June 2021 (UTC)


 * There is no discussion, AND no one agreeing or disagreeing with your block. And you know why! NoelveNoelve (talk) 13:00, 24 June 2021 (UTC)


 * And after you are all over the shock of the indignity of being sectarian and called out for being so. DrKay, Celia Homeford, Surtsicna, Martinevans123. Mary Queen of Scots is an obvious case of WP:SOURCETYPES. Popular historians are being favoured over academics. Of course you'll deny the signs of your guilt in favour of popularity and in groups again. NoelveNoelve (talk) 11:26, 24 June 2021 (UTC)


 * This is how wikipedia reach consensus? Say you disagree, put undue weight on popular historians, ignore academics, and then exclude what you personally can't emotionally or personally believe in for selfish reasons, abiding by a selfish in-group that promotes how you selfishly think about yourself? You would all be ashamed if you didn't already know what you are doing. NoelveNoelve (talk) 11:59, 24 June 2021 (UTC)


 * If all the academic source types and imprimatur religious texts (validified views of a church) were put before people and not popular historians, they might disagree with your opinion! Quick deletion. Invite to talk. Block and unblock request and... Silence! NoelveNoelve (talk) 12:55, 24 June 2021 (UTC)


 * I count 5 people all saying they disagree with no valid reason. You call that consensus, I call it breaking the rules. But because it's an English language wikipedia article, even if properly sourced, with a proper academic source type, and another with an imprimatur, YOU say it's a minority view as if it' a badge of honour to shut a different reading down because you can't handle academics(!) and other religions(!) reading it differently. Wikipedia isn't an encyclopedia, its a census. NoelveNoelve (talk) 13:16, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
 * The main sources for the article are Fraser, Guy and Wormald. Fraser is a Catholic who has been awarded many honors for her historical work. Guy took a first in history from Cambridge, and since then has held multiple distinguished posts at universities, including Professor of Modern History, Head of the School of History, and Provost and Vice-Principal for Research at the University of St Andrews. Wormald did a PhD in History at the University of Glasgow and was a Fellow and Tutor of History at St Hilda's College, University of Oxford, for twenty years. All three have written critically acclaimed biographies of Mary. The claims that we're ignoring academics in favor of popular books or sectarian sources cannot be substantiated. Your two sources are a general work edited by Michael Lynch, which is fine but it is a general history not a biography of Mary. The other source is over 100 years old and is written by someone whose main work appears to be on the birdlife and history of the Eastern Caribbean not early modern Scotland. DrKay (talk) 14:35, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
 * DrKay: You can't even substantiate the claim that the three are academics! Only Guy has a peer-reviewed structure, both Lynch and "the other source", betraying your sectarian intent again, are peer reviewed by academics (Can you dare write it? His name?). Theology is an academic degree if I am not mistaken for a sectarian minded serial eraser such as you, and the imprimatur has survived readings from peers and beyond that is authoritative view because of that of what the church permits as teaching. As for "Fraser is a Catholic", a divorced Catholic given as a tokenistic non-peer reviewed source. You can't even substantiate the claim that you are not being sectarian without tokenism avoiding the main thrust of my argument.
 * The whole make-up of your hunt on me has been deletion. Never, not once, even though on multiple occasions you have seen the talk page mentioned as an amicable route out of dealing with a situation. You have deleted elements I have written even where there are obvious, clear, and unambiguous peer-reviewed sources for my additions. Never, not once, have you put a template up. You have being overriding other admins in their dealings with me, against their wishes, and have reported yourself because you knew you were breaking the rules.
 * There are several ways of dealing with a forceful phrasing of an article that is common in peer-reviewed works (that you would know about if you read them, and included them as an accepted valid source type not in conjunction with popular histories) including footnotes explaining other views being prevalent, even though your "consensus" is an artificial "biography" creation I've never read anywhere in Wikipedia guidelines: "if it's not in the direct biographies it's not true". The nearest I can see is undue weight, but even that doesn't elicit a biography = source type mathematical equation as you are doing.
 * I do wish you would properly reference YOURSELF to fellow Wikipedia administrators in all of your actions and not merely your bans. Your actions include deletion, and contempt, and the exclusion of the talk page, and covertly hiding until someone disagrees with me and then pouncing on it for your own purposes. Anything I said has been challenged, even when you knew that it was not a valid challenge that others must suffer for the same reasons because the facts were obvious and would need challenging elsewhere on a page if it were not so. NoelveNoelve (talk) 08:56, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I have other peer reviewed academics such as John Durkan, writing on the timeframe, on the figures involved, on the importance of John Black in the biographies (lower case) of those involved. But your anti-wikipedia-like Biography = Authoritative (upper case) stance is beyond you again, before even talking about it.NoelveNoelve (talk) 09:20, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

I have 3 sources, from a mere glimpse at the sources available, including 1 journal article. What would characterise sufficient coverage? I wrote a stub of a recent similarly themed article that once got going was added further references by others. I do not imagine that the amount of time I spent on this won't provide further references. NoelveNoelve (talk) 08:16, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
