Thank you for reverting my talk page
Thank you for quickly reverting User:2601:180:8200:63D0:5D31:D5D7:CBCF:6164 vandalism on my talk page and then blocking them. D Eaketts (talk) 16:53, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * No problem. They've been messing about across the range for far too long.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:23, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

User:LoganRich
Hello Ponyo, Trust you are well in these uncertain times, we are on lock-down and have not seen our family, except for video phone calls. Could I please draw your attention to the activities of who keeps adding unsourced information to various BBC articles. I have asked on their Talk page several times for them to supply reliable, secondary sources, but they have ignored all requests - and seem to be doing the same with others editors comments. Can I please leave this with you. Thank you and best regards, David, David J Johnson (talk) 18:09, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I tried. We shall see if it has any effect. -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:20, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much. I wouldn't bet that you will get an answer. Hope the rest of your Easter is good. David, David J Johnson (talk) 18:26, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

I'm shook
You're here on a weekend. Also, do you have any particular experience with our dear friend Kingshowman. Pretty sure he's back and using proxies/is the same person as the SPI troll we've been dealing with off and on for a few years. I normally pestered about him, but, alas, DoRD has left for greener pastures. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:42, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, I dug enough that I'm willing to call it him: Sockpuppet investigations/Kingshowman if you or Mr. DoRD are curious. TonyBallioni (talk) 19:46, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Sock drawer
Hi, I've just blocked 30 socks from a sock drawer. I see you've tagged some of the previous ones and blocked a few ranges, so I'm letting you know they came back. I don't know if it makes sense to tag all of these.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  20:18, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

 * There were a number of sleepers that I've blocked as well. No point tagging, they're not worth the time or effort.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:42, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I've also blocked a couple IP ranges that cover ones that posted on my talk page yesterday. Could you review those blocks to confirm they aren't too large?  Eagles   24/7  (C)  18:54, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I can't really comment on specific IPs or ranges; the curse of being a Checkuser.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:58, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Possible block evading
You blocked User:103.127.30.249 in March of this year, it appears that the editor is evading their block by using other account User:73.1.41.245. For example, the block IP created the article Whole Lotta Red without adding sources, the IP just recently recreated the article without adding sources also. I don't know what who this editor is but the edits looks similar. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 03:17, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Behaviourally there is some overlap, but the technical details don't align (unsurprising as the 103 IP is a webhost). Given that IP 731.1.41.245 has been editing for well over a year, I don't feel comfortable blocking it without more pressing evidence.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 16:28, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

I got a message from Ponyo to declare connection with an account
I got locked out of FeiGao2020 and created another account (AprilAnon2020). That other account is inactive and as far as I'm aware hasn't been banned from anything so I'm not trying to avoid a ban or any form of sock puppetry — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnonApril2020 (talk • contribs)
 * Hi I was pretty sure that's what had happened, which is why I asked. It would be helpful to include Template:User previous account on your user page, just to keep the connection clear. --  Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:08, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

Request
This probably won't happen because of the whole issue with User:Banana Mutant but would you have a problem with lowering the protection level for Template:Justice League characters and Template: Avengers characters. Mark Rhodes 12 (talk) 20:40, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I've made a few adjustments to Template:Avengers characters protection, but the Justice League template needs the additional protection - it's a prime sock target. You could always request an edit be made using the requested edit template on the template talk page (see Edit requests for instructions).-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:11, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Quick help?
Not sure if it helps/hurts anything, but I saw your warning on this users page and their last three or four edits have been just more slandering. I gave them a fourth warning and it didn't really make them budge. Andrzejbanas (talk) 00:51, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Sigh. I get their frustration, it's never fun to see your work reverted. It takes maturity to take on the information that more experienced editors are attempting to provide, and lashing out with "fascist/nazi" personal attacks demonstrates that this editor may have a way to go (and grow) in that regard. As they've posted a retirement template on their talk page it would be overly harsh to block now, so we'll just wait and see whether time away will help achieve some interspection. It would be nice if they could tone it down a bit and return willing to follow our sourcing and verifiability guidelines and policies as they seem very knowledgeable on their topic of interest. --  Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:36, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. I was trying to be be reasonable as I could with the user without removing their content, but it didn't seem to go well. Thanks for your help on the whole ordeal though. Its greatly appreciated. Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:36, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

Prajakta Koli
Hi P, sorry to bug you with this, but I just blocked for undisclosed paid editing based on on-site info and a touch of off-site info. Short story, Prajakta Koli is affiliated with One Digital Entertainment, an article that Trusha.daware created, so it seems like just a marketing team taking ownership of both topic articles. But I also notice seems rather interested in the Koli article as well. Is there any way you could look into the unraveling of whatever sock/meat ring-ery is happening there? If you want me to write up an SPI, I'd be happy to. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 23:10, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I know it's a pain, but an SPI would be helpful. A number of CUs have been working hard to keep the backlog down and I imagine it would get quick attention.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:26, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Can do. Thank you. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:11, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Clarification on G11 denial for Draft:Arunansh Shokeen
Hi P, could you clarify why you presumably declined the speedy here (even though it wasn't mine)? I have struggled at points to understand why some admins follow through and some remove. There doesn't seem to be a consistent rationale based on past new page reviewing I've done, and I'd like to have a firmer idea so future admins don't think I'm just indiscriminately CSD tagging articles. Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 19:55, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
 * The article has bounced around from article to draft space. I've salted the article until an approved draft becomes available (if it ever does). As with any speedy deletion, it's up to the reviewing admin to decide whether the page meets the criteria using their own judgement, experience, and interpretation of the deletion policy. Outside of G10 and G12-eligible deletions, there is a gradient as to what admins consider inappropriate for inclusion to the point of speedy deleting. A7 and G11 are the common deletion rationales that rely most heavily on individual administrator's interpretation of the deletion rationale, and, in my opinion, the draft does not meet G11 (from G11" "This applies to pages that are exclusively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to serve as encyclopaedia articles"). From my experience there is also a great deal more leeway provided in draft space with regard to promotional tone, allowing new editors to work on writing more neutral content supported by reliable sources outside of article space.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:12, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Well said. Thanks, I appreciate it! Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 21:14, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I did just pull a copyvio image from the article, and a removed a couple of WP:BLPNAME violations as these shouldn't appear on any pages, article or draft. Thank you for the work you put in to reviewing drafts; it is an endless and often thankless job.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:19, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

 * , can you confirm which portions of the article you find to be a blatant copyright of the Washington Times article? If it goes back to the B4byfir3fly182 addition on April 7th, I'm not sure the amount of overlap is significant enough to require revdelete (per Earwig comparison), but would know better than me.--  Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 22:46, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Problematic remnants
Hi,

the sock with various evasions created this redirect page, but user:Materialscientist who this time reverted all the sock edits, forgot to delete this page...I just wanted to draw both of your attention to this, to perform deletion. Regards(KIENGIR (talk) 07:43, 7 May 2020 (UTC))
 * It's not eligible for G5 speedy deletion because there have been significant edits by another editor. Is the redirect useful and plausible? If not, WP:CSD may apply.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 15:48, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Ponyo, no significant edits were made, those three edits were from a reviewing admin and just put some technical edits there, maybe missing to check the background of the creator., could you solve this is issue with Ponyo and Zaminum together somehow? (anyway not just technically, but the redirect would have problems historically as well, it was created the same way of POV pushing as the sock did in those large number of articles...)(KIENGIR (talk) 10:05, 8 May 2020 (UTC))
 * The AfC reviewer accepted the draft and moved it to article space; I believe most admins would agree that that counts as a substantial edit. So the question remains, is it a plausible helpful redirect or a disruptive POV one. If it's the former, there is no reason to delete it solely because it was created by a sock. And I'm saying this as an admin who leans very strongly towards deleting or reverting sock edits.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 16:09, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Sure. Well I think it may be regarded as a POV, but will address the issue to an uninvolved admin who also comfortable with the subject itself, particularly.(KIENGIR (talk) 22:02, 11 May 2020 (UTC))
 * If you do approach another admin, please also point them to this discussion. Thanks, -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 22:36, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I would say the safest is to send it to MfD. I would also add that even of the redirect is eventually kept nobody is going to die.--Ymblanter (talk) 05:40, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your opinion, I will now create the MfD (I do it first ever, hope won't do any mistake), Ponyo please correct me in case. Thank You.(KIENGIR (talk) 07:25, 12 May 2020 (UTC))
 * Ponyo, in theis edit of mine I failed the link properly, it would be correctly Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Ancient Ukraine (by mistake I duplicated the Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion prefix...), could it be corrected somehow? Thank You(KIENGIR (talk) 07:34, 12 May 2020 (UTC))
 * Looks ok now, I think?-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:50, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I did not notice any change, but just noticed a fresh user Crazyboy826 claims I chose a wrong forum and closed the Mfd with non-admin closure ...?? What concerns me he also notified the sock about changing it to Rfd...what's going on??(KIENGIR (talk) 18:42, 12 May 2020 (UTC))
 * I think that mistakingly mentioned taking it to WP:MfD instead of WP:RfD. While it's considered courteous to notify good faith editors that a page outside of their user space has been nominated for deletion, it doesn't make any sense to notify a blocked sock. In fact, there are many reasons why this is very much not a good idea. Perhaps  didn't realize they were notifying a blocked sock account.--  Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 19:48, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, this is right, I should not have commented before taking my first coffee in the morning. At least now the redirect seems to have been taken care of.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:50, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Archives vandal


I see we found them at about the same time. There was more on the /48, going back about a month. I think I've reverted all the archive edits. In case you were assuming good faith, as I was at first, see Special:Diff/954269093. Do you think the unsourced article space edits should be rolled back as well, as presumed sneaky vandalism? Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 18:52, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I was working through reverting the main space edits when I ended up being sidelined by a call. The edits I checked consisted mainly of the addition of unsourced dates of birth, which, even if I assumed good faith (I don't), should be reverted.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 19:11, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Vendalism
Mr Bugti is a living person. Any details about him requires reliable sources. You edited false information and facts about him which you're not authorized to do. Remove the protection template so i can add reliable statements about him. He has a image and reputation to keep which you're intruding in. Aloha31 (talk) 23:20, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is not a venue for you to manage the image and reputation of people you're personally connected to. It's an encyclopedia on notable topics that includes material supported by reliable sources. Your attempt to remove all content you personally disagree with despite it being very well sources is unacceptable. When I protected the article I also created a section on the talk page to allow editors to discuss their concerns, feel free to use it and see if you can get consensus for the changes you want to make. Throwing around false claims of vandalism will get you nowhere. Please also be aware of our policies regarding illegitimate use of multiple accounts, it seems particularly pertinent in this case.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 23:29, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

The information added previous were of trusted sources and reliable. It is not my personal disagreement, nor I feel it is. You're added edits are false and are just accusations which you might not be aware of. Mr. Bugti is a political leader and has human rights affairs, but you listed him as a terrorist which him and I won't appreciate. I'm aware of the our policies regarding illegitimate use of multiple accounts. People similar to your IP address have been editing it falsely since they day we created this page. So I suggest you remove your edits and the protection template Aloha31 (talk) 10:33, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
 * There is nothing you have written here that negates anything I wrote in my reply to you above. If anything, it leads me to believe that the article will need to be protected for a longer duration as the intent of the protection, i.e. to drive discussion to the talk page to gauge consensus, has not been realized. The various discussions on your talk page insinuate that you intent to wait out the protection and to continue the disruption, which, if true, will ultimately lead to you being blocked from editing the page entirely. You've been directed to the talk page. Use it. -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:53, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Hey Ponyo! I stumbled upon the above user during RC patrolling. They've continued their disruptive efforts and are clearly WP:NOTHERE. I agree with your assessment of reprotecting the article or block. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 21:35, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Vandal continues to attack Pat Day page
Hello,

Can you please revert the changes made by 72.227.160.141 and Aryeh10 (sockpuppets of the same user as banned Peteski 123, YYY613 and JIJJRG) back to my version (last update May 7 at 15:54)?

I have spent a lot of time providing the most historically accurate, balanced and non-biased version. I need my edits protected and locked from further attack by this user who is dedicated to destroying the reputation of Pat Day. He will not quit until his one-side negative attacks on Pat Day has completed destroyed his reputation. In addition to his attacks on the biography page, he has taken out dozens of big races that Pat Day won off the page.

 * A content dispute at Pat Day may be frustrating for you, but it most definitely is not "vandalism at its worst". If you find yourself in a content dispute, you can make use of the advice here.

Hi, I saw some of the articles you've created and I was impressed. Do you think you could give me some tips on places to look to get started with writing an article from scratch? It looks like a bit of a daunting task given formatting challenges. If you are too busy feel free to disregard!

Stolen userpage
Ponyo, I made several attempts to delete the userpage of new user, purloined from Legacypac, but I kept getting error messages saying it couldn't be deleted, or failed to be deleted, or similar.

I do not understand your edition on the Saki Nakajima's page
Hello, I do not fully understand your edit that you made on the Saki Nakajima's page here 1, I have tried to add the Saki Nakajima's birth year, what happens is that the users of Japanese Wikipedia erroneously deleted the date of birth of the seiyu, now that there was no source and guess that, one already exists and well, they add it again. 148.0.96.73 (talk) 04:51, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
 * In order for a year of birth to be added, it needs to be supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources include independent sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy; tertiary websites such as movie and celebrity databases do not meet the criteria, which is why your edit was reverted. -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 04:59, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Re: WDDM Article
Hi. Firstly thanks for protecting the article. Secondly, I don't believe it necessary for me to be making a case on the article's talk, as I have been purely removing unsourced speculation. Similarly why I continued to revert beyond 3RR, in accordance with the exceptions listed on the policy page. If you review the respective revisions you'll see that comparatively, the other entries (that were accidentally removed by your rv) all had citations to official MSFT documentation. While the other user persisted in introducing information (Along with abusive summaries) with no sourcing other than Reddit/Forum gossip and speculation. It'd be greatly appreciated if you could restore the lost sourced information, and prune the unsourced speculation. Thanks. 92.29.94.171 (talk) 01:44, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
 * As the protecting admin it's really not my role to choose sides and the amount of diffs involved is overwhelming. My best suggestion is to lay out your argument(s) on the article talk page and to leave a neutral message at relevant Wikiprojects requesting their input. From the article talk page, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Microsoft, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Microsoft Windows and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Software appear to be related to the article. If the consensus is that a specific revision should be restored, please ping me and I'll lift the protection.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 01:56, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the response, and that as the protecting admin policy (or convention) may tie your hands somewhat, but I feel I must stress that there really isn't an argument for me to make beyond "Does unsourced speculation belong on Wikipedia?". I'd like to refer you to the two revisions prior to your intervention, as they (The unsourced additions relating to "Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling") are the entirety of the dispute in question. The other information that was unfortunately pruned by your subsequent rv was sourced and neither in contention by either myself or the other user. My stance is essentially "Don't add unverified speculation until MSFT or another authoritative party provide appropriate documentation". Apologies for continuing to push this issue, but I feel strongly that the matter is clear cut with regard to Wikipedia policy. Thanks. 92.29.94.171 (talk) 02:14, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
 * This essay, while humorous, touches on the reality that the version protected is always wrong to one side or the other. As there is no blatant vandalism or BLP info involved, there is no immediate need to restore the article to any specific version. It will benefit you in the long run as you will be able to point to the talk page discussion if your edits are reverted once the protection is removed or expires.--  Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 02:29, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I disagree, there is a clear violation of Wikipedia's policies of WP:V and WP:NOR. I am unable to discuss the matter on the talk page as there is nothing to discuss beyond the aforementioned policies themselves. As MSFT have yet to release any documentation for the relevant bulletpoint this dispute is regarding, there is no recourse for further action. I strongly implore you to consider the matter further, and take a stand in stemming the tide of misinformation from individuals enshrining Reddit hearsay and speculation as fact. This is the last I shall say on the matter, as I do not wish to bother you further. Thank you for your time. 92.29.94.171 (talk) 02:58, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for blocking me for a week. You didn't even review the circumstances of the block, and didn't even let me request a unblock appeal because you blocked my talk page. Thumbs up. Sounds like you didn't give a fuck. Matthewishere0 (talk) 18:03, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
 * She did not block your talk page, because as you may have noticed, you actually requested an unblock on it. Passive aggressive dishonest whining should be grounds for an indef block, IMHO, but for some reason we tolerate it here.  In limited amounts.  You got caught acting like a 12 year old, told the least believable story imaginable (and yet, for some reason, the most frequently attempted) as explanation, and you're the aggrieved party?  You're lucky it wasn't indef. "My friend did it, on my computer, that I left at their house"!  Good grief. Like we're all idiots or something. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:15, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I got my talk page unblocked after I submitted a UTRS appeal. I literally said I didn't want to sound like my little brother did it. Why are you acting like it is impossible for another user to hop on someone else's computer? You obviously don't even know what happened. Why would I try to vandalize a page on a random day when I am autocomfirmed? obviously it wasn't me as I didn't log into my account after like an hour or so later after the vandalism happened. The worst part is that the person who blocked me was a girl. Matthewishere0 (talk) 18:37, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi my little Ponyo. An IP, 2409:4042:E9F:14B0:0:0:6D08:E613, opened an ANI thread about revoking my admin tools for topic banning, with no great success. ScholarM denies having used the IP.

Question about what's appropriate on a LTA page
Hey there, Ponyo. I hope life's been treating you alright during this catastrophic year. I have a question about LTAs - one that has been at the back of my mind for several years. Way back when, the better part of a decade ago, somebody added a note on Long-term abuse/Dragon2016, pertaining to a comment I made, in which I postured that Dragon2016 may have been impaired in some way. Now, I've always found it dubious to include such a notation attributed to me, as it was in passing and was naturally made in good faith, due to the odd and incomprehensible edits Dragon2016 was making. This raised another question that I haven't broached yet; is including notes about legitimate mental disorders appropriate on LTA pages? I ask, because the troll Zhoban - fifteen years and counting - claimed on another wiki that he has been diagnosed with Pervasive Personality Disorder, which is the root of his crude habits. Should notes about psychiatric diagnoses be stricken from pages? If so, I'd be happy to remove the note attributed to me. If not, it could add clarification to the Zhoban saga.

 * I don't think we should be adding notes regarding the mental health of other editors, self-admitted or otherwise, on any Wikipedia pages. That's just my opinion though. -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:16, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
 * That's a good opinion! I've removed the note the editor made that mentioned me on Dragon2016's LTA page.  D ÅRTH B ØTTØ ( T • C ) 16:04, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

Template - speedy deletion?
Good afternoon Ponyo, I am looking for some advice please. I came across Template:No Sleep 'til Sudbury: Adventures in 80s Hard Rock and Metal Deconstruction in my recent changes patrolling. This seems to be an inapprorpiate use for a template from a new editor (who only seems to be here to promote his/her/their book) and I wondered if they were trying to create an article? Would this be an example of a G2 candidate? Many thanks. Agent00x (talk) 22:28, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
 * It falls under WP:CSD in that it was "unambiguously created in error or in the incorrect namespace".-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 22:32, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much, noted. Agent00x (talk) 22:34, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

User talk:DJTonyPrep
Oh great. Now he'll go back to UTRS. I just got him to respond on his talk page. (laughs, then weeps)  -- Deep fried okra  ( talk ) 20:10, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I thought about that (sorry!), but there's no way that that discussion is going to lead to an unblock. They're just going to keep banging on about the unfairness of the block and attacking the blocking admin(s) as opposed to actually addressing the reasons for the block. Can we block editors from UTRS with the new system? Because that seems inevitable.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:14, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Don't I wish. I'd have already requested that. I'll just decline anymore I see which need it w/o commenting further. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 20:17, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I haven't used the new system. Logged in once, poked around and hated it. Boooo.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:23, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Citing sources
Hi. I'm just curious on how to cite sources. Thanks! Tarantino101 (talk) 22:37, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * There were a number of links provided in the welcome message I left on your talk page. Help:Referencing for beginners should be enough to get you started. -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 22:39, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

Protecting Dasha Nekrasova
Thanks for protecting Cum Town, could you do the same for Dasha Nekrasova? The same troll is posting the same thing over and over again on her page. I think its this guy User talk:Yellow-billed Loon, he's obsessed with her and keeps vandalising her page and Red Scare and nominating them for deletion. Pinchofhope (talk) 00:39, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I've semi-protected Dasha Nekrasova for a couple of weeks. There's not a lot of activity, but it is particularly nasty. I've also provided Yellow-billed Loon with information on Discretionary Sanctions on BLPs.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 18:16, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Sock drawer?
There's a brand new editor on my page named [sic], quoting the post by  that you removed from Talk:Kayastha on 23 June. Anything..? I've asked them whose sock they are. Bishonen &#124; tålk 20:11, 27 June 2020 (UTC).
 * Never mind, all taken care of. Bishonen &#124; tålk 20:25, 27 June 2020 (UTC).
 * There were sleepers, which I've blocked as well. You can see them in my block log if you're interested.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 21:25, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh yes, I am. Always good to see a flock of specific "Bishonen" and "Sitush" socks. Thanks for taking care of them. Bishonen &#124; tålk 19:52, 30 June 2020 (UTC).

I am firmly convinced that this editor is here to do nothing but troll us, based on a combination of his previous activity as an IP user, the totality of his rants on his user talk page, and his now current antics in his sandbox. Change my mind. Elizium23 (talk) 02:12, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

suppression
Hi. Would you kindly suppress something for me? If you say yes, I will post rev-del'ed diffs here. —usernamekiran (talk) 19:54, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Please use the oversight email address to request suppression as such links, if they are suppression candidates, shouldn't be posted on-wiki.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:03, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
 * another suppresser responded. Sorry for the inconvenience. But thanks a lot for the response. See you around —usernamekiran (talk) 20:05, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

edit request of the article
hi ponyo thanks for the locking the edit section on the article of zorawar  singh  kalhuria, due to so much edit wars on the page. iam unable to handle the article again by reverting the edits made by several non wikipedia users from several i.p. addresses. this message is regarding the issue of some non referenced content and misleading type of texts in current version of article. i also made a edit request regarding that but no use of that till now. so matter is regarding onlt the first line of the article where it says "Zorawar Singh Kahluria (1784-1841) was a general of the Sikh Empire in the Indian subcontinent. He was subordinate to the Dogra ruler Gulab Singh, who was a vassal of the Sikh emperor Ranjit Singh.[4][5] In reference to his legacy of conquests in the Himalaya Mountains including Ladakh, Tibet, Baltistan and Iskardu as General and Vizier, he has been referred to as the "Napoleon of India",[6] and "Conqueror of Ladakh".[7][8]" according to the references and citations present in this article  .it makes clear that zorawar singh kalhuria is the dogra general of the army of dogra maharaja  gulab singh  the maharaja gulab singh is the vassal of the sikh empire. so mentioning term he was general of sikh empire is quite misleading .it may be a  previous edit  by somebody ,so kindly don't associate sikh empire with zorawar singh term if you need more realible references by 19th century  british    historians books i can provide you here is references Frederick Drew, The Jummoo & Kashmir territories Alexander Cunningham, Ladak A. H. Francke, Antiquities of Indian Tibet Fisher, Rose, and Huttenback, The Himalayan Battle-ground

i raised this issue due to the fact the i found people got mislead by reading the first line and talking him as a sikh by the reading the first line of article ,i have seen multiple people twitter which got mislead by thinking that he is sikh by his identity  although article mentions the  his religion in early life and career section but most people don't go further upto that section by reading whole article beacause people nowdays just google the name and it shows the first line on google only ,thats why this is misleading in this way, for further info check talk page of zorawar  singh  kalhuria where the dispute of his religion is already solved in 2017-2018. so as a wikipedia community member i thought its my duty to raise this issue to respected admins. thanks waiting for your response --Loneltrussia (talk) 09:01, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Everyone editing Zorawar Singh Kahluria believes their version of the article is correct which resulted in endless edit warring. As the protecting admin it would not be prudent for me to become involved in the content dispute and the article talk page is the best venue to request changes. It looks like you've done that and have received assistance there.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:57, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
