NOVA Roller Derby Deletes
Good morning! I have applied for an undelete for the page, and I will do so for the image once/if that's approved. There are countless leagues who also have Wiki pages and while the page did not have a large amount of content it was similar enough to others that I believe it a good start. I am not sure if you had a chance to look before it was deleted - I know it was tagged, but the user who kept tagging it had tagged in my user space other issues, but never mentioned any feedback. I'd love to hear if you have any, as I think having a page with parity for other leagues would be appropriate. Thank you! Imperialgrrl (talk) 12:01, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I hope you don't mind Shirik but I've moved this article back to her userspace. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 13:51, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
 * That's fine, thanks. -- Sh i r ik ( Questions or Comments? ) 20:09, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Sockpuppet
I just opened this case of sockpuppetry but its not showing up on the SI thread. Why? Did I do something wrong? Pass a Method  talk  11:47, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I see that the case is closed, but FYI, the addition to the location you referenced is handled by a bot, so it can take a little time to show up. I didn't see anything out of the ordinary to make me suspect that the bot was missing it for some reason, and it looks like it was handled as appropriate. -- Sh i r ik ( Questions or Comments? ) 23:33, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

TorNodeBot
Hi Shirik. Thought you might like to know I've seen the occasional Tor node editing recently.. I don't know if you want to dust off your bot and see what it finds? No hurry or anything, not sure if it's a long term thing. -- zzuuzz (talk) 08:21, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Will take a look when I get home tonight from work. Thanks for the heads up. -- Sh i r ik ( Questions or Comments? ) 21:37, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Hm, it's picking up a few loose ends here and there, but mostly it's just detecting that the TorBlock extension is working as intended. Do you have any examples I can take a look at? I'll leave the bot hunting just to see, but it doesn't look like it's picking up anything of interest. -- Sh i r ik ( Questions or Comments? ) 03:40, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

OK, thanks for looking. I'll keep an eye on it. Some examples, all now blocked, would be: -- zzuuzz (talk) 07:16, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Indefinite block for Omer123hussain
How is it possibly even remotely appropriate to give someone an indefinite block for a first time offence. WP:MEAT is a perfectly reasonable policy, and its enough to justify some sort of block, but how is an indefinite term for a first time offence justified? -- Eraserhead1 &lt;talk&gt; 07:27, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Some justification of how it meets the blocking policies duration criteria is going to be required here. -- Eraserhead1 &lt;talk&gt; 07:54, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Please continue this discussion at WP:ANI. It is pointless to bring it to my talk page, where it will receive fewer views. That being said, I reaffirm Tim's decision until that point at which you can provide any evidence of a dissenting administrator. I believe his interpretation of policies is valid, and concur with his actions. -- Sh i r ik ( Questions or Comments? ) 01:11, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I posted here to make sure you saw it. -- Eraserhead1 &lt;talk&gt; 08:48, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Possibly redundant notification, but...
