AN discussion you might be interested in
This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Étienne Dolet (talk) 07:07, 1 October 2015 (UTC)


 * I've unprotected Turkey and replied at both discussions (AN and ANI). Please be aware that further use of your admin tools in this dispute (protection, blocking, ...) will be reverted and may lead to further actions (as an abuse of admin tools in an involved situation). Please take a step back and discuss this at Talk:Turkey or alternatively completely disengage from this situation, if you feel that you won't be able to keep your cool in it. Fram (talk) 14:43, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi Nyttend. I think it might be a good idea for you to respond to the comments at AN about how you handled the situation at Turkey. Some serious concerns have been raised that I doubt will go away by simply ignoring them. One of the concerns is that there may be a pattern of you getting too personally involved in situations in which you also use your admin privileges, and then fail to address other editor's concerns about those actions. - MrX 16:54, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

Removal of Speedy Deletion request
Hello Nyttend, I just nominated for speedy deletion of Shruti Reddy due to the lack of references, the articles mentions that she acted as lead in the movie Peoples War. But within that movie the lead roles are Srihari, R.Narayana Murthy, Posani Krishna Murali see :. Also i just raised sockpuppet about the creator of the article ( See : ) Hope you will delete that article from WP and also block these sockpuppets. Josu4u (talk) 22:52, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

Euroleague edit warring

Hey! Great map (File:Turkish provinces with Kurdish majorities highlighted.png) you've made, but some provinces are missing (Adiyaman Province and Sanliurfa Province).

Disambiguation link notification for October 13
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Union Meetinghouse-Universalist Church, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Pinnacles (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Restoration request
Hi Nyttend. If you have a sec, can you restore my userpage? INeverCry  00:53, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

Please be polite
"any idiot can see that", is the way to comment another editor's actions? I clearly stated that I was aware that the article exists for long. The article IS (or was) a repost as it was recreated within days of the deletion. The article content is not really any different. So the speedy deletion nomination was a simple way to get a (mostly random) second opinion from an admin. You think it is not speedy deletable, fine, I'd actually would be more surprised if it would be speedy deleted than not, so I have no problem at all with that decision. All fine, except that you could have done it while remaining polite, no? - Nabla (talk) 03:01, 17 October 2015 (UTC)


 * I will point out that his comments suggests that since you did not see it, that you are in fact not an idiot. If any idiot can see it, and if you did not see it then you must not be an idiot, Q.E.D.. Based on this the edit summary seems potentially self deprecating. HighInBC 03:08, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
 * The current condition of the article is vastly different from what was deleted. Let me be clear: you were telling us that the condition of the article at the time of tagging was essentially identical to what it was at the time of deletion.  Did you really believe that it was?  If so, what caused you to believe that, and why did you believe that the pre-deletion content included information about events years in the future at the time of deletion?  And if you did not believe that, why did you make such a claim?  Nyttend (talk) 03:36, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I may have acted right, I may have acted wrong, both happen. I may further discuss the substance of the article and of the the nomination, but only if you remove your insult. - Nabla (talk) 16:30, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Someone who takes such an action, understands the situation, and still believes that he took the right action, is not to be trusted with administrative tools: only bad faith or incompetence can be responsible for such a blatantly bad action, and even an idiot can see that something including post-2010 data is not a repost of something from 2008. No further response will be forthcoming.  Nyttend (talk) 21:52, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Feel free to report me. - Nabla (talk) 12:49, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

Accusation of racism - I seek your advice
Dear Nyttend. You might recall earlier this year an incident involving editor Ndandulalibingi that resulted in this block and this COI case last year. He most recently added again a source that I had removed. This is an author whose views the editor claims are supported by many others, but he cannot include those others because they are the Wikipedia blacklist. More on Papstein here. That, only for background. For the record, Ndandulalibingi claimed last year that he was no longer the chair of the Cheke Cha Mbunda Cultural and Writers Association, which commissioned Papstein to edit the book. As you can see on the organisation's website he is the national chair. If that is not blatant COI, I don't know what is.

Accusation of racism: Further to ealier threaths to report me to the Mbunda and Angolan authorities for disrespecting their king and all things Mbunda, Ndandulalibingi is now levelling accusations of racism against me, alledging that I hate the Mbunda, that my hatred of the Mbunda is the same as the hatred of the Mbunda by Potuguese colonialists here. I seek your advice on how to proceed. Should I open a case at ANI? I am not going to stand by and be accused of racism or xenophia. I look forward to your assistance. I will wait to hear from you on what course to take and then notify the other party of intention to take action. Regards, Rui &#39;&#39;Gabriel&#39;&#39; Correia (talk) 16:06, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

I am not sure that I caught
all the fine nuances of changing Category:Moderne architecture to Category:Streamline Moderne architecture in the United States, or if indeed that is what happened, but if it is, then what about Moderne architecture outside the US? Is there a category for those buildings? Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 04:52, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your answer and there was nothing brusque about it. I realize that sometimes "telling it like it is" to some who does NOT think this is how it is, or should be, can be mistaken for ruddiness or high handedness or something else negative.  I have been tracking the various strands of deco architecture and WPA and PWA and all that intertwined stuff for . . . . maybe 30 years and I understand that it is difficult, if not impossible to turn that Gordian knot into something that will make everyone happy.  Anyway, you have made me happy, so, thanks. Carptrash (talk) 16:54, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

 * As someone who has stumbled across that feud again and again via Talk, RfC, and AN/I discussions, let me thank you on behalf of the community for doing the leg work to take that recurring disruption to ArbCom, saving someone else the (unfortunately, inevitable) trouble and recommending the matter with the benefit of an admin's perspective. Honestly, if some other admins had been more willing to draw a line for these two much earlier, we might have all been spared a lot of trouble.  Criticizing mopsters doesn't come easily to me (I know it's a complicated and sometimes thankless way to volunteer your time), but for a while now it's felt like administration can be really quite apathetic when it comes to those rare occasions when nothing is going to forestall the disruption but a direct sanction, especially at AN/ANI.  I don't know what this most recent iteration of the row involved, but having seen the last six, I can well imagine.  I'm glad you have interceded and brought this to a process space where a review of a totality of the circumstances and definitive course of action are vastly more likely to occur.

Green Banana Marketing
Hi. I noticed you reverted your deletion of this article, which was then tagged again and deleted again (by me). My principal rationale for deletion was a lack of any significant news coverage beyond passing mentions of the company. It's possible we could go with a redirect I guess, I'm just not sure where.

Could you semi-protect my user talk page?
A well-known banned user has been harassing me on my user talk page. See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ASmallbones&type=revision&diff=688101147&oldid=688064172 and his following 2 edits. There are several before which I've left on the page, and I've told him to stay off the page last year and probably the year before.

If there is something else I have to do to keep him off my talk page, please let me know what I have to do.

Any help appreciated.

Close regarding spelling changes
Regarding your close of an ANI thread I opened, see my comment to the user. Your closing rationale that the user is acting in accordance with the OED. I rather think that OED is on my side, their position is exactly the opposite to what Bazonka, and apparently you, seem to think it is. They prescribe licence for the noun but allow both licence and license for the adjective with equal standing. But that is not so much the issue, the issue is more that it is continuing with multiple editors objecting. Please reopen the thread to at least allow others to comment. SpinningSpark 16:58, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree with Spinningspark. His complaint was only open for one hour before it was pre-emptorily closed by the administrator. It was not enough time. I also agree with Spinningspark that the inane change that is being made by Bazonka should not be suffered to be allowed in Wikipedia. I request the incident complaint be re-opened. Seanwal111111 (talk) 22:49, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, I have read the OED entry. If you had read my comment where I asked you above to "see my comment" that would have been abundantly clear.  The fact that OED has put both spellings in the headword is very significant for them.  They just don't do that for variants that aren't current.  They frequently don't do it even for variants that are current.  Just try looking up authorise or similar words with an -ise ending.  You will be redirected to authorize and the alternative won't be in the headword.  Further, an obsolete form is shown in the forms section with a century, or range of centuries indicating when it was current.  A form that is still current has an open range dash, for instance "15– license".  You will notice that we also have "ME– licence" meaning that the licence form has been current from the Middle English period to the present, longer than the license form.  I don't see how you can draw any conclusions at all about current usage from quotations that are all well over a century old.  I concede readily that license is the dominant form, but is easily shown that licence is far from dead.  Even Fowler in his usage guide (who very likely first "invented" this licence/license split and proscribed licence as a verb) had to admit that there is some justification for licenced.
 * Since you have declared that you will not object, I will unclose the ANI thread. SpinningSpark 01:23, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not trying to deny that license is the dominant form. You have misread what I have been saying. Spinning<b style="color:#4840A0">Spark</b> 01:35, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

Not appropriate
It's rather rude to restore an article without discussing it with the deleting admin. You didn't even have the courtesy to notify me, I only stumbled across it by accident.

^^^Other file you deleted.

Your edit and edit summary at 2014–15 UMass Minutewomen basketball team
First

WP:CATDEF reads "An article should never be left with a non-existent (redlinked) category on it. Either the category should be created, or else the link should be removed or changed to a category that does exist.

Your reverting my removal of the category clearly shows you don't know yet another very clear cut Wikipedia policy.

Second

Your edit summary "My stalker ought to know not to get in the way of a technical problem: wait until this is sorted out." Your calling me a stalker constitutes a personal attack. Per WP:Hound "Correct use of an editor's history includes (but is not limited to) fixing unambiguous errors or violations of Wikipedia policy, or correcting related problems on multiple articles." My edit did not constitute HOUND. You did however violate WP:NPA by calling me a stalker. Maybe will consider blocking you tendentious editing in violation of clear cut wikipedia policy, your violating WP:Scrutiny as is seen here, and personal attacks....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 20:08, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
 * How coincidental, I've been thinking about you the last couple days as I have had a… Let's just call it a spirited exchange. However, in the middle of it, Nyttend noticed a technical issue I've been unable to solve for couple years and offered to help. I haven't looked at the exact diffs but I see it involves UMass minutewomen, which is where I was having the problem. Please cut him some slack as he's trying to be helpful.-- S Philbrick (Talk)  20:38, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I have repeatedly provided you with extensive evidence of stalking me to a wide variety of pages, making edits immediately after mine to never-before-edited-by-you pages on the most random of topics. This page was just another example of this behavior, and the diff you cite at Acroterion's talk provides more evidence of the same.  You have pledged your willingness to follow me in order to take me down, a diff that I have repeatedly linked in past examples and that I linked in the diff you cite of Acroterion's talk.  There is no need to re-link edits that I have already provided.  It is most marvellous that anyone would tolerate your years of stalking me, your years of fulfilling your grudge, and your baseless accusation here of a WP:SOCK violation.  Let me note that WP:Scrutiny talks about "Using alternative accounts that are not fully and openly disclosed", and User:Nyttend backup has been fully and openly disclosed since I created it in 2007.  Kindly provide evidence of my use of undisclosed alternative accounts to avoid scrutiny if you wish for anyone to believe you.  Nyttend (talk) 20:53, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Your Nyttend backup page states 'I use this account when I'm on other computers than my own, in order to reduce the risk of password theft. See WP:SOCK#LEGIT's "Security" line.' You used it in hopes of getting me blocked in an edit here. One minute later you were editing from your Nyttend account. You say you only use the backup when on other computers. It stretches credibility past breaking point to think you went from one computer to the next in the matter of a minute. Don't forget your post to Commons for the exact same purpose of getting me blocked. I have never once edited at Commons and the issue between you and I is here, so what purpose to avoid scrutiny would you have for posting there? Please tell where you even one time made a complaint against a User at Commons that was about a matter exclusively at this site? I've seen your last 500 User talk edits going back to 2011 and don't see anything like your August post to Sphilbrick in any of them. No one should tolerate this behavior or when you got Orlady to block me for bogus reasons. There isn't one editor who said I was making NPAs against you in Januray 2014 however you got me blocked. You were also told afterwards by an administrator then that your behavior wasn't becoming of an administrator....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 21:37, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Since you are well aware that the policy says undisclosed alternative accounts, but you continue complaining, further complaints will not be dignified with responses. Nyttend (talk) 03:14, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

Instagram images
Hi! I am kinda against CSD#G5. But I had nominated those two images; File:Instagram web screenshot.png and File:Instagram mobile screenshot.jpg because we already had another non-free image File:Instagram logo.png on the article. Three non-free images aren't reasonable per WP:NFCC and instead of taking it through normal deletion channel and waiting for 8 days and creating some e-waste I thought of CSDing it. Nevermind, I can not take it to FfD if you think the files should stay. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {Talk / Edits} 04:14, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the deletion. G5 is difficult to understand most of the times, especially when socking is involved and then over time the main reason for someone's block is totally forgotten. I had been against this speedy criteria and have somewhere in the backpages also discussed it with many editors/admins. But now am learning to use it to at least speedy up deletions of things which would be most likely deleted through normal processes.

Hi, Nyttend! I really don't know why this discussion got archived a mere day after the last comment and without any resolution, but that's how it went. I still believe that something – anything, whatever it needs to be – really has to be done about this, and so was thinking of trying to re-open the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Copyright problems, where it might be allowed to remain for a little longer without being dislodged.

Pleasant Ridge School, Darke county, Ohio
Hi, thanks for your message. it is/was in Patterson township. The village of Pleasant Ridge in Patterson Township is mentioned in the Google Book History of Darke County, which mentions Pleasant Ridge Church and Pleasant Ridge Cemetery. Pleasant Ridge cemetery is on Find A Grave, but has no location information, so that one may be the Pleasant Ridge Cemetery in in Mississinawa Township. There is a blog http://darkecountyohiooneroomschoolhouses.blogspot.com/, which has photos of 62 presently existing one room-school houses in Darke. It states that there were over 200 at one time. Somewhere I have a copy of an old atlas photo of Patterson Twp. It helped me locate the farm where my grandmother was born. I'll look further for it. Best wishes.

On further research I have found two "Historical schools", i.e., no longer extant. near where my grandmother was born. School No 4 which was right across Reed Road from the NW corner of her grandfather's land, and School No 6 which was east of School No.4 on Stonerock Road east of Willodell Road. Apparently School No 4 was called Nason School. Here is a map of where the schools were: http://www.dcoweb.org/land/patterson.htm

Manatee County School District
Hi. Hope all is well. Two questions about your CSD removal. First, was unaware that government entities are inherently notable, could you please point me to that guideline? Second, the article is not about a school (educational institution), rather it is about an organization comprised of educational institutions, a school district, and therefore the educational institution exclusion for A7 would not seem to apply. Thanks.  Onel 5969  <i style="color:blue">TT me</i> 01:20, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

"Un-ordination"
I have reverted your removal of factual information in the Church of England article. Your reason for the removal was invalid. The facts are quite clear, the Church of England now indefinitely bars clergy convicted of serious offenses from having any authority to minister as clergy. Such a bar can be removed (in cases of miscarriage of justice for instance). It is not the same as "defrocking" which requires a strict legal process and cannot be reversed.

National Register of Historic Places listings in Fremont County, Colorado
Hi, there. The last delisted property on National Register of Historic Places listings in Fremont County, Colorado, namely the Timber Creek Road Camp Storage Building, really belongs in Grand County. I tried moving it and made a mess, which I reverted. Are you able to have a look and fix it? This site confirms that it really belongs in Grand County. Best wishes, Jeffrey Beall (talk) 17:51, 3 December 2015 (UTC).
 * Thanks for cleaning that Fremont County thing up. No, I don't know of any statewide library jobs list, sorry. If you want an academic position, I recommend looking at the job site for each university or university system. Ours is at jobsatcu.com, but please look at it today as it is going to be removed tomorrow. There are also some national library job lists that cover openings n this state. Good luck, and let me know if you end up heading out this way Jeffrey Beall (talk) 20:22, 3 December 2015 (UTC).

Couple of questions
Regarding (and a couple of others), why did you replace National Register of Historic Places in Michigan with National Register of Historic Places? It's much more useful to be able to navigate between counties than having links to state-level lists and places like Guam and Palau. Also, you changed the 102–106 Francis St. address to use a hyphen instead of an en-dash. I assume this was an unintentional consequence of search and replace all? kennethaw88 • talk 02:04, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. Thanks for the explanation. kennethaw88 • talk 02:22, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

I went ahead and added a new section to the MSHS article. There's no need to create a new list, since there's only 8 of them. I do have another question. What's the best thing to do about List of Michigan State Historical Markers in Detroit, Macomb County, Oakland County, Wayne County (as well as this Washtenaw County draft)? They're just duplicates of the total lists, but only including actual markers (and based on the michmarkers website). I would like to redirect them, but that seems too bold. The only thing merging would do is add the listing number (which almost nobody is looking for) and the obverse/reverse images where there is different text on either side. kennethaw88 • talk 01:53, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Friendly request
When you move National Register listing pages (as you recently did to the Denver pages), can you please move the talk pages as well? Not doing so breaks the statistic update script. Thanks!  Magic ♪piano 16:12, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

Hull's Trace North Huron River Corduroy Segment
Ah! Took me a while to remember this.

The nomination for Hull's Trace claimed that the remnants of the Trace are visible in various places along the west side of Jefferson for a distance of about 1250 feet north of Harbin Drive. If memory serves, I chose coordinates along Jefferson about halfway along that section to represent the "average" location. However, the only sections I saw were in the open area about 100-200 ft north of the bridge. (If you check the area along Jefferson in Bing birdseye view, though, you can see the Trace segments there pretty clearly.) I don't particularly mind if you'd like to change the coords to reflect the easiest spot to find the Trace remnants reather than the "average" spot, though.

Hello Admin, Capitals00 is the real sock. Please stop him
He falsely accuse me of being a sock of shulinjiang whom I do not know of.

Admin, please do not listen to him. I am not a sock, I got blocked for unjust reason and I do not know whom shulinjiang is. Capitals00 however, is a proven sock. Just go take a look at his block log. He has the exact same name! He has at least 6 accounts dedicated for vandalizing trolling and spreading pro Indian propaganda. Here are some of his other socks: User:D4iNa4, User:OwnDealers, User:Littleboygenius, User:Chipperdude15, User:D4iNa4, and urser:122.170.132.127

Here is his sock puppet investigation archive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Capitals00/Archive

Please note that Capitals00 was actually banned for 2 weeks for being a real sock way back in 2013 and now that he is back.

Here is his block log: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/block&page=User%3ACapitals00

My guess is that he got block many time back in 2013 with this account user:Capitals00, and recently his main account got blocked for a long period of time and that he is back using this one again.

Look at who is the real sock here.

Old Stone Arch Bridge (Clark Center, Illinois)
Have you seen the form that Catlyst got about Old Stone Arch Bridge (Clark Center, Illinois)? The 1933 US 40 runs a little south of the current US 40. The bridge in question is on what was a loop in the Old National Road that went south of the 1933 US 40 for a while. The bridge I photographed is on the old US 40, not on the loop of the old National Road, so it is not the correct bridge. You have a photo of the top of a bridge - is it on the old US 40 or on what was a loop of the National Road? Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 01:21, 18 December 2015 (UTC)

Mast Brothers
Hello User:Nyttend: I would like to request the restoration of Mast Brothers, a chocolate company that has been in the news recently. If they weren't notable at the time of deletion, it's possible that there are enough sources now to warrant an article. If it is not suitable for article space, perhaps it could be restored to my userspace where I could work on it? Thank you. :) generic_hipster 04:44, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Offensive language
I am surprised that you would say something this offensive. (this wasn't very appropriate either) Did your account get hacked? Montanabw (talk) 08:34, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

Re: Offensive language
Um, are you familiar with the terms? A cripple is someone who is lame, unable to walk normally, etc., and a bastard is someone born illegitimately. The WP:EUPHEMISM project page reminds us not to use euphemisms, which "mobility impairments" definitely is, and aside from the importance of not using euphemisms, bastardy is a legal status that's quite relevant to this article on the law of wills and trusts. Nyttend (talk) 13:22, 21 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, I am and these two words are both archaic and highly offensive. It is not euphemistic to use professional langauge. See WP:LABEL. We also don't say the "n-word" any more, we don't use the "r-word" or similar archaic words to describe people with developmental disabilities and we don't refer to sex as "f---ing".  You need to learn the difference between professional phrasing and offensive terms.   Montanabw (talk) 18:24, 21 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Nyttend, the terms "cripple" and "bastard" haven't been part of civilized discourse for more than twenty years. I realize that the state of Ohio prefers to live in the past, but this is just silly. Viriditas (talk) 20:43, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

User is requesting an undo of your move of Odell Beckham Jr.
Please see WP:RMTR, where User:Calidum proposes that your move of Odell Beckham Jr. should be undone. There was, in fact, a full move discussion in January 2015 that eliminated the comma. If you oppose the request do you want to open a new move discussion? Per WP:JR It appears that the RM participants get to decide about the comma. After a decision is made, it looks like move protection would be beneficial to stop the constant changes. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 04:11, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

You removed the Happy Days section from the George Blanda article, calling it trivia.

Fatma Hatun
Hi. I realized that you have removed the proposed deletion template. The main problem is that being married to the son of the Ottoman sultan doesn't always mean that you're notable. Besides, if the print sources had recorded the existence of such person, then I didn't mind the existence of this article but actually there's no reference to such person in reliable sources that have been used on Ottoman sultanas' articles. For example I can't find any information about this individual on The imperial harem: women and sovereignty in the Ottoman Empire, published by Oxford University Press (ISBN 0-19-508677-5). Now you have forced me to give a deletion request! Keivan.f Talk 07:22, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for closing the RFC

Questions about closure
I noticed that you closed the RfC at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Identifying_reliable_sources_%28medicine%29&curid=7933684&diff=697593001&oldid=697592647

Part of the closing statement had the following rationale: Final note — some of the votes were simply weak, and they tended to be much more on the "and health" side. Short is fine, e.g. We want to have a simpler wording and adding health simplifies it and too broad, but per Doc James, Tryptofish, Jytdog, etc. and as per several others above. Biomedical is clear to me simply need to be given less weight, not to mention votes without rationale, and I'm seeing more of the latter sort in votes on the "and health" side than on the other.

I would like to ask you: does this mean that you discounted !votes simply because they referenced others arguments without providing their own arguments? <b style="font-family:'Segoe Script',cursive;"> --Jules (Mrjulesd)</b> 18:08, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
