2 User Conduct RFCs in development for UCRG/IB

 * UCRG conduct RFC
 * IB conduct RFC
 * I'd be happy if you could help with the gathering of evidence/information or the organizing of either of these conduct RFCs, following these examples here User Conduct RFCs. We have a tentative filing date of this thursday.--Amerique 00:19, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello Szyslak,

Please look over the current RFCs and tell me or Aeon what you think. I was thinking IB's could benefit from adding whatever civility violations he's also committed, as all the evidence currently on his page goes to substantiate the sock/meatpuppet allegation. We are thinking of filing these tonight or tommorrow.--Amerique 20:45, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

UCRG Conduct RFC Filed
Thanks for all your hard work in helping this process along.--Amerique 16:08, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello Szyslak,

Thanks for archiving the UCR talk page. Re: the UCR survey, I was thinking of closing it as Evil Saltine made some excellent edits to some contentious language that helped render some content less POV. As that content is different from how it was when the survey started, I think maybe the survey has outlived it's usefulness. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this.--Amerique 03:23, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Addionial Violations have been listed at UCRGrads RfC, you might want to take a look. Aeon Insane Ward  03:20, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

No worries. I frequently don't know where my head is, so I know the feeling well. :-D Go ahead and nowiki it if you'd like to, though I'm not sure further evidence is needed now that it's a done deal, but I don't mind either way. SlimVirgin (talk) 11:18, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Karmafist ban
Can you provide a link to the community discussion about Karmafist's community ban? --JWSchmidt 20:10, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

I guess this must be one of those cases where the decisions were made off site, possibly via IRC. Do you have any idea who edits from 68.39.174.238? --JWSchmidt 00:39, 14 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I do. 68.39.174.238 14:29, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

re: Margaret Nicholas
You are most welcome, syszlak. I am happy to help. M. Nicholas is reclusive, so information to bulk the article out will be hard to find, but I hope to get there. Thor Malmjursson 12:25, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Apologies
Szyslak, I want to apologize for having to read the vulgar language I used on the UCR talk page. I was strongly offended by UCRGrad's statement about Rutgers and being an alumnus of this school, I take it very personally when people take shots at it. I am not asking you to be sympathetic to me, but I want you to know that UCRGrad did fire the first shot and his post about Rutgers being unknown to California and that it has a similar reputation to UCR (ergo, that Rutgers must be a lousy university since he compares it to UCR--a school which he doesn't seem to like very much) amounted to nothing more than denigrating Rutgers. What upset me even more is that he claims that he's speaking the truth about Rutgers. Frankly, if he had even said that it was just his opinion, I might not have taken it personally and retaliated. But his statements about Rutgers being true are very misleading and I took it upon myself to strike back with a barrage of profanity. I truly regret what I said and I realize that no matter the circumstances and no matter how much he tries to push me, I have no right to yell profanities on wikipedia.

However, I still stand by my position that UCRGrad has engaged in flamebait tactics in an attempt to incite a response from me. Obviously, he was very successful and now I fear that people will turn against me without fully understanding the situation I was in. He still continues to engage in flamebait tactics when 1.) I fully apologized for using foul language 2.) I begged him to stop doing that. A perfect example of his continuing to flamebait me is this from the UCR page: “It is true that Rutgers (like most lower-ranked east coast schools) is not well-known in California. I'm sorry you are offended by this statement, but it's true and no amount of profanity/obscenity is going to change that.” UCRGrad 03:55, 15 August 2006 (UTC)" 

I am proud of Rutgers and will defend my alma mater from any unwarranted attacks. I will also not back down my general position unless UCRGrad apologizes for using flamebait tactics and retracts what he says about Rutgers (or rather, make it clear that he's just stating his opinion since he can't seem to back up his "true" statement with facts). Thank you for your understanding. Teknosoul02 14:30, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Message from Cutie 4 life
i just wanted to say when i did the thing on the hannah montana i accidently did it and y do u care anyways? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cutie 4 life (talk • contribs) 04:30, August 17, 2006

Please edit my edits
I don't know whether you can do this, but I seem to be the anti-UCRGrad making the most edits. It would be easier for me if other anti-UCRGrad/anti-Insert-Belltower editors edited my edits (go to the latest starkt page in the history section) instead of the article itself, so that I could revert to my last edit without losing the good edits you all are putting in. Thanks. starkt 14:44, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

The next RFARB
They've both indicated they don't want to undertake WP:Mediation. I am for initiating further data collection this week for the next RFARB, RFARB2.0, for which I've pulled the evidence from the current RFC and saved it on yet another user subpage located here:. I truly think the last one failed mainly for a lack of due process, but we will see. I am not in a rush to do this, but will be working on compiling further evidence and developing a comprehensive statement through this week.--Amerique 23:38, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello Szyslak,

Re: a content RFC, I support doing one, the sooner the better. However, there was already one put up in May by Tifego that did not noticably lead to anything getting resolved. As we already have two user conduct RFCs in effect on UCRG and IB, and as the next RFARB will be entirely focused on user conduct as opposed to article content, I don't think another content RFC would have much bearing on the longstanding issues we've been having with these two. I think having one up would allow us to say we've covered all bases, but I don't think we should wait around for the calvary to arrive in response, if you know what I mean.--Amerique 18:31, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Scratch what I said earlier about collecting new evidence. The ARBCOM will not be concerned with evidence at this point. Basically, all we would need to initiate the arbitration request are individually prepared personal statements as to what the various problems are working with UCRG/IB and what we think the committee should do about them. I should have online by this thursday or friday. will let you know.--Amerique 00:15, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I've put up my preliminary draft statement on my afformentioned userpage. You can put yours up there now or wait until after I file the request, which I intend to do next Monday. Best,--Amerique 00:57, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I've gotten the format of the next RFARB mostly ready to go with minimal further editing necessary. I would like to open the question of whether we should file this week to further discussion on my talk page, as UCRGrad himself seems to have suddenly become absent. Best,--Amerique 02:22, 28 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I am totally at a loss as to where I should be right now. All of these abbreviations (RFC, RFARB) are driving me silly. The article is looking better, but Insert-Belltower just today reverted a fix on Discrimination and Hate Crimes without answering or responding to the reasons cited for the fix. Is this something that should be noted somewhere by somebody? Sincerely, a puzzled GeorgeLouis 15:40, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/10th Kingdom character articles
Both Vary and I seem to think that if the articles are radically shortened and put in a list of 10th Kingdom characters (per WP:FICT for lesser important characters), there'd be no need for deletion. I'd even be willing to do the grunt work. Would you please return to the deletion debate and consider changing your vote? - Mgm|(talk) 09:27, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much for the quick response. - Mgm|(talk) 09:39, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Help requested
Hi

I'm writing to you - and others - because you are one of several people who appears to have experienced the same thing as I have noticed and experienced.

Namely a pattern of vandalism by an anonymous user. The IP # is 66.229.10.64

See this user's talk page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:66.229.10.64

This user has been temporarily blocked several times. I notice that the pattern is the same.

The person doesn't seem to respond to polite community requests to engage in dialogue - or to desist from repeatedly making edits that several editors consider to be vandalism.

I am not that experienced in these matters but can there be an attempt made to block this user permanently? Or at least for a period of time so that the person gets a message about respecting the community. Thanks. Davidpatrick 03:21, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. It is frustrating. I guess one has to hope the vandal eventually gets fed up... Davidpatrick 04:16, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Santa Susana Field Laboratory et al
I think I agree with you on all that. I also have a complaint about Santa Susana though so that may end up rather shorter than it is now too. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 17:19, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Channle Islands
I can't find a source which clearly spells out which islands are in which counties. Have you got one? Santa Barbara Island is so far south that it's hard to image it'd be in SB County, but stranger things have happened. Cheers, -Will Beback 10:37, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

List of longest running U.S. cable television series
I think I'm about 36 hours away from turning User:B.Wind/TV list sandbox into List of longest running U.S. cable television series as I had a particularly fruitful editing session last night. Any feedback you have will be most appreciated (please feel free to edit - the list probably needs a fresh perspective from someone without dyslexia). If it all looks good to everybody, I'll trim the comments and move the rest on Tuesday (November 15) or Wednesday (November 16). B.Wind 11:31, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
