Page protection needed at Students for Justice in Palestine?
Hi RolandR,

Some IP editors have taken to disruptively editing the page about Students for Justice in Palestine. Do you think this warrants temporary page protection?

Cheers, Sindinero (talk) 13:23, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Probably not yet. So far there does not seem to be significant disruption. Keep watching this, and if it continues it may become necessary. RolandR (talk) 13:53, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi
Hi -- I didn't see an edit summary explaining why you were deleting another editor's entry on my page. Perhaps there is an acceptable explanation, but normally that is not allowed (though I'm allowed to delete the entries of others on my page, and in time would have likely deleted that one). Just checking in -- perhaps there is a special circumstance that allows you to delete that text by another editor. (If there is, btw, it would be helpful to mention it in an edit summary the next time). Tx. --Epeefleche (talk) 09:21, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, that was entirely accidental. I had a network failure, and was aware that something had gone wrong when checking another editor's contributions. But I couldn't see what happened. Please accept my apologies; I did not intend to do this. RolandR (talk) 09:24, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
 * No worries. Happy editing.  Best. --Epeefleche (talk) 09:26, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

SPI
Thanks for putting the latest SPI together Roland. It was fairly obvious to a few editors that the new account wasn't that of a new editor. I looked at the edit histories of a few articles on the account's contribution list, but couldn't see any recently blocked editors listed, so, was stumped as to the identity of the socketeer myself. <span style="font-family: Perpetua, serif; font-size:120%">   ←   ZScarpia  23:06, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

Responding to your message
Sorry not to have followed protocol in editing the "Elizabeth Barrett Browning" wiki page. However, my edit was correct. Endnote 22 was written by Jennifer Kingma Wall, an MA candidate at Rutgers University (article copied below). I did not intend on vandalizing the page; I only wanted to give credit to the proper author.

SPI
Hi Roland, just FYI, I have an incomplete list of proxies used by our mutual friend at User:HJ Mitchell/93. As I mentioned at the SPI, the ones I dealt with in December were geolocating mainly to South America (Paraguay, Peru, Argentina, Venezuela, though interestingly not Brazil or Chile...) and a few to Spain. I don't generally edit articles in the topic area given that I'm active in enforcing the discretionary sanctions so feel it best to remain above the fray, so if you spot any suspicious-looking edits from IP addresses like that (and my list might make for useful comparison), could you let me know? From a pragmatic point of view, I'd be inclined to leave him alone if he was editing anonymously and not causing any problems, but alas he insists on coming back to the same edit wars time and time again. Vagueness is deliberate per WP:BEANS/WP:DENY. Best, HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?  01:10, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

I believe the user thinks he is on some quest to right the wrongs he sees on wikipedia and rid it of its 'liberal' bias. It isnt just on the Marx pages, its on a lot of pages. His talk section is a testament to that. The disruptive edits, edit warring, pointy and agenda driven inserts don't stop. A ANI report had been filed before, but it appears nothing has come of it.

Query
Hello RolandR, You left a message and undid some of the edits that I did for Kathy Freston. I am a bit confused on all of this as she has been divorced from Tom Freston for over a year (there is not an article on this, but if this page/site is about accuracy, then the update should be left), her birthplace is incorrect on the page as it is Greenville, not Atlanta, and the information currently on the page " Tom Freston was largely responsible for her visibility, as Kathy Freston has no formal training or expertise in nutrition or biology. Tom was an executive at Viacom in charge of MTV Networks until 2006" has no citation or reference either and is all hearsay and therefore not credible, if you are saying that what I wrote is the same definition.

I have emailed Ms Freston on the past and got the response from her, "tried to share my life’s experiences that led me to this journey in my books. I don’t have any special education or especially relevant background, beyond the fact that I’ve found these topics to be engrossing. I've become somewhat of an obsessed researcher on the subject of plant-based food and all its healthy repercussions!" so that would seem to me to be a better source then someone else's apparent gossip, as stated in the current page.

It seems a bit shady to me that there is all this talk of her ex-husband, especially skewed in his direction, coming from articles written about him, on her page. I feel her page should be about HER and his articles can go to his Wiki page.

The Charlie Rose link is no longer active so why was it restored? This makes no sense to me and I am not sure of your interest in all of this?

Thank you, Walt P.Waltypete (talk) 22:53, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

A New category BORN ON A TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE
Dear Roland, wait a little please, I'll give you a link from the NASA Web site! Rohlinae (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 15:04, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEsearch/SEsearchmap.php?Ecl=18510728 This is the source! The day of birth of Samuel Sachs for example Rohlinae (talk)


 * Nobody is questioning whether he was born on the day of an eclipse. The issue is, is that significant? You can only include this if a reliable source makes the connection. Otherwise, your own linkage is considered unacceptable synthesis, and is not allowed in Wikipedia.


 * Your further comment, complaining that I have not responded within five minutes of your original comment, is also unacceptable, and I have removed it. RolandR (talk) 15:17, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Ok, maybe you are right! Thank you for your reply! Astrology is not a science I know, but this is an interesting fact to create a new category to facilitate the search of the people born on a total solar eclipse day. It's so interesting to know it, why not? Like in Ancient Greece for example the fact of birth on such a day was considered very important.

Automated revert
Sorry, I reverted back this rollback because the section is essentially POV, for the reason I've previously described in the last edit and I've repeated in this one. Regards. Lenore (talk) 21:50, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * a woman who reports being raped is not a rape victim. these infos are tendentious. please stop your vandalisms Lenore (talk) 10:33, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * My edits are certainly not vandalism; maybe you should read the page to see how Wikipedia uses the term. And my starting point is to take seriously allegations of rape, not to follow a repressive regime in stigmatising and criminalising the complainants. RolandR (talk) 11:27, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi RolandR
Hello RolandR, as you wrote to me, I can see that you removed my last edit. As I belive, regardless to my political views, the term 'occupied territories' is not accepted by all. Therefore I belive that writing the 'west bank' will be better alternative than the 'occupied territories'. BTW, the Israeli alternative is Judea and Samaria and not the west bank, but I chose to use the trem the 'west bank' as compromise. This expression is guaranteed to all and politically correct. Please change it back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ברעזרא (talk • contribs) 03:49, 15 May 2015 (UTC) ברעזרא (talk) 03:51, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
 * The article originally included a citation from a book by Israeli legal academic David Kretzmer,The occupation of justice: the Supreme Court of Israel and the Occupied Territories. You altered this to The occupation of justice: the Supreme Court of Israel and the west bank. This is utter falsification, and I fail to see how you can justify it in any way. Similarly, the article included a statement from a B'Tselem report describing restrictions in Hebron as "among the harshest in the Occupied Territories". You altered this to "among the harshest in the west bank", maintaining the attribution to B'Tselem. This again is falsification of the source cited. There are more examples of your falsification of sources in these edits. Your personal preference does not take precedence over the actual usage by the sources cited. And in any case, the term "occupied territories" does not refer only to the West Bank, but to all the areas occupied by Israel in June 1967, including also the Gaza Strip, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights. Your edit introduced deliberate errors into this article, and you would be well-advised not to repeat such behaviour. Of course I will not revert my edit. RolandR (talk) 10:13, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I didn't noticed that I changed originality quotes. It wasn't my purpose. But on the other way, the term 'occupied Territories' Indicative of particular political view. Therefore, this term should replaced with the term 'west bank'. As long as it doesn't change originality quotes of course.

 * You changed the title of a book by accident? Yes, sure, whatever... RolandR (talk)
 * I was just trying to be nice and explain to you the source of this mistake. I do not understand why you do not believe it, and actually, I don't really care. The only thing that I do care is using the right expressions in this free encyclopedia.
