Cheers!
Re. your block on User 86.47.53.31, I was about to approach him/her again in the interest of trying to de-escalate the personal invective, but on reflection your response will probably be more effective. Anyway, rather than waste a good pint... 

RashersTierney (talk) has bought you a pint! Sharing a pint is a great way to bond with other editors after a day of hard work. Spread the WikiLove by buying someone else a pint, whether it be someone with whom you have collaborated or had disagreements. Cheers!

Tan, you should have used here and here. :-) AdjustShift (talk) 16:41, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Yeah, you're right. Thanks! Tan  &#124;  39  17:12, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for protecting Talk:Matt Sanchez. Out of curiousity, did you find it through the AN/I discussion or the RFPP page?  Horologium  (talk) 01:48, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * The ANI page. I wasn't actively patrolling RFPP; I've been less involved there lately. Perhaps I should change my mind about that. :-) Tan  &#124;  39  02:49, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/Contaminated haemophilia blood products
Hi there, this AfD was opened by User:Ricky28618, who you just indef blocked. You might consider closing this as nobody who has yet commented sees any justification in this nomination. Tim Vickers (talk) 02:23, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Medusa: Dare to Be Truthful
Medusa: Dare to Be Truthful has been protected because of a request made by User:XLR8TION who claims that User:74.197.86.10 is involved in edit-warring, destroying it with unconstructive entries that contain pointless information and bad grammar. All parties interested in the subject are encouraged to discuss the issue here. Tony the Marine (talk) 02:54, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Tan, how are you? I suggest that User:74.197.86.10 be unblocked so that he/she can participate, since the page is protected anyway. Tony the Marine (talk) 18:20, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Our disagreement
Be Civil :)
 * So, as you know I posted an ANI and you responded to it, the relevant thread is here. We already know the basis behind this agreement so I'd like to avoid rehashing old arguments endlessly. I personally feel that I learned a great deal from the previous fiasco, if I may throw my opinion out there, and I have done my best to remain civil and behave appropriately in the meantime. Currently: Obviously I am involved in a somewhat heated debate about structural changes at some of the firearms articles, stemming from my desire to add subsections to sections that run over 1000 words. Blah blah details, the point is this escalated into a point where I was trying to be rational and discuss but facing a user who has in a textbook fashion assumed ownership of some of the relevant articles and has been responded to my attempts at discussion with escalatingly offensive remarks which I will deign to call personal attacks, including attacking my motives as an editor, my abilities as an editor based on previous articles I'd worked on (not what I'd done, just that I'd done anything), accusing me of having learning disabilities and writing the articles like a fifth grader, and (completely falsely which is defamation) accused of removing text from and inserting popular culture trivia into unnamed firearms articles.


 * I'm not expecting you to do anything about it, my point is that the previous argument regarding Ryan Delaney is irrelevant and inapplicable to this current discussion and you have cited it inappropriately. I was offended by your hostile comments to my ANI but I have recovered and am feeling quite calm and civil at the moment. I am trying to address concerns about another editor's personal attacks (the ownership elements are hopefully less important now that an appropriate discussion for census has started);. I am not battling any administrators, there has been more general support for my inclusion of the subsections than against me, and lots of other details that aren't even important.


 * I believe your comments have prevented anyone else from commenting on the ANI or addressing the underlying concerns about personal attacks and general misbehavior. I don't want you to apologize, or try to take care of anything for me; all that I ask is a personal request for you to please refrain from mentioning the previous matter in the course of unrelated ANIs. I do not know the proper course of action at this time and I have no immediate plans to file another ANI but I feel the situation must be looked at by some uninvolved administrator. I hope you can work with me in civilly discussing this matter here instead of on unreleated noticeboard incidents. Some guy (talk) 06:44, 3 July 2009 (UTC)


 * For what it's worth (as the guy who pointed out the perception on forum-shopping in the current guns dispute) I reckon Some Guy is actually in the right on this one, although he's gone about dispute resolution the wrong way (posting content disputes on DRAMA has never helped in the history of the project). Both of the editors he's butting heads with have well-documented histories of ownership problems with firearms articles and block logs to match. That will eventually need to get sorted out one way or another, even if actively provoking them (which is what the current dispute has turned into) isn't the right way to go about it. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 09:41, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with both of you, for the most part. Poor timing; I just woke up early to get packing and head out on vacation to Colorado and Utah - for eight days. Perhaps you can repitch your problem, citing this talk page thread, and get some help you need without my two cents mucking up the process. Tan  &#124;  39  12:39, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * All right, thank you both. Chris, I do seem to have a history of going about resolution stuff the wrong way (>_<), and unfortunately I didn't discover WP:OWN until after I started the ANI so I wasted a lot of time explaining a textbook problem. I would like to restart the ANI very briefly, just a brief summary and "personal atacks: diff diff diff", "attempts to discuss and warnings: diff diff diff". To repitch it, do I delete the previous one and start over? Want to make sure I do everything right. Some guy (talk) 20:09, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Duh, you're on vacation, you can't answer the question. I rewrote the ANI completely and someone is helping now. Thanks again. Some guy (talk) 07:10, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Matt Sanchez
Hi, I wanted to help out with the Matt Sanchez article, but I see that the page was blocked. I'm on Matt's e-mail list and just got two of his articles. http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2009/07/02/class/ http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,529966,00.html

There's a lot of bias on the Matt Sanchez page and I'm hoping we'll see something more balanced soon.119.59.82.18 (talk) 17:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC)


 * The above anon IP address resolves to Afghanistan, where Matt Sanchez -- the article subject -- is currently blogging from. Sanchez has been topic banned from editing his article, but has a long, documented history of violating this ban under anonymous IPs.  This would appear to be yet another instance. --StephenLaurie (talk) 04:58, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Didn't realise I has screwed up the template with my edit. Apologies!!! leaky_caldron (talk) 22:33, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

I need an explanation
Why did you block me? I was editing this article, and I couldn't edit any article, except my talk page. I was editing Wikipedia. Why did you block me? I was NOT disrupting wikipedia, as I was editing the article, giving the article a plot section. It WAS NOT pointless info. And my spelling was correct. I need an explanation. --74.197.86.10 (talk) 03:22, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Chicken baguettes
Thanks, Tanthalas. I thought of nominating the article for speedy deletion--I don't think it was created in good faith to begin with-- but figured someone would make a case for it as a noteworthy sandwich. As always, much appreciated, JNW (talk) 19:48, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

If two users are on the same IP address, and one is blocked, does that also automatically block the other one? Or is some additional action required? Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 05:43, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

User:Tanthalas39 abuse of power
(This was moved from the AN. I'll assume good faith and ask about what exactly happened here--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 11:09, 13 July 2009 (UTC))

I find the way User:Tanthalas39 has handled the problems between User:Supreme Deliciousness and User:Arab Cowboy on the noticeboard here constitutes for an abuse of power. He warned the User:Arab Cowboy of Disruptive Editing and as soon as User:Arab Cowboy replied he blocked him for 72 hours. He didn't take into account that this is a new user and that he is still learning what Disruptive editing even is. I don't see how Arab Cowboy has done Disruptive Editing and wish for clarification of why he was blocked. User:Arab Cowboy was asked on Asmahan to stop editing until matters are cleared, which he did. I find his dedication at least to Asmahan proves him as a valuable addition to our community. I think saying "AC, knock off the disruption here. This constitutes an only warning." is a clear abuse of power. What disruption? He was the one who started the thread. Maybe I'm missing something so please User:Tanthalas39 please explain your behavior.--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 10:51, 13 July 2009 (UTC)


 * If your intent is to ask Tan to explain his actions, why do you come here with a heading of "abuse of power" and fail to ask him on his talk page first? You actions, while probably well-intentioned, look as if you do not have any real intention to solve the situation without drama. You might want to tone down the language a little and seek a discussion with the admin involved first. Everything else is counterproductive imho. Regards  So Why  11:02, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll move it to his talk page...--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 11:06, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * My actions are self-explanatory. I see his first unblock request was denied; a second is pending. If you want a formal inquiry, go for it. Tan  &#124;  39  13:51, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Your actions were appropriate. If the redlinks want to open an inquiry, they should be aware that their own behavior will also come under intense scrutiny. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 14:13, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

After carefully reading the Noticeboard I think I have rushed into this accusation and formally apologize as such. Arab Cowboy seems to have done Disruptive edits: "Roux, obviously, it's a good thing that you are not [an admin]." " The "logic" of some of the users here is pathetic." "but from the way the answers have been coming here, it's more like a madhouse than a place to have an intelligent discourse." So it seems that he has engaged in such edits and your blocking threat was valid.--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 15:51, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Revert
I have absolutely no idea - I've got AIV on my watchlist, but I haven't visited in a while, so I have no idea what happened there.

Nukes4Tots and Theserialcomma
As you know, you just blocked Nukes4Tots again. The editor who filed the block, was blocked for one month by  for baiting: User talk:Theserialcomma. This was a first-time block. Do you think this is appropriate? I honestly don't know - I can see how his comments appear to be baiting. Some guy (talk) 22:59, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Where to go....
I'm looking through the AfDs and I'm seeing a lot of articles that are not going to have any more discussion and as I know you are an admin online I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of a better place (than WP:AN) to report AfDs discussions that have fizzled. In all my time here, I've never actually found a place. <span style="font-family:Papyrus, sans-serif;"> Rgood erm  ote    06:04, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, that last one was a good alert - but for the most part, they should be left to run at least seven days as prescribed at WP:AFD. Even if discussions are 'obvious', there's not much harm in letting them run the full time period, no? That said, if you find one that absolutely needs to be closed, AN is as good of a bet as any. Or my talk page. ;-) <font color="#CC7722" face="Papyrus">Tan  &#124;  <font color="#21421E" face="Papyrus">39  06:10, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Editing Disagreement over the Sturm College of Law Page
Hello Admin,

Thank you for freezing the Sturm College of Law Page. I am hoping you can help me further, or point me to someone who can. I am a relatively new editor (March of 2009) and I am having problems with another Editor who I believe is a bully. He is not an admin, yet he goes onto the Sturm College of Law site and deletes content / pictures for no valid reason. This all started when he deleted a picture of the law school with the reason "not relevant." It has been ongoing and I believe he is not helping the site, only harming it.

I looked through his other work when responding to his posts and have found that he has done this to many other users as well. Could he please be banned from editing the Sturm College of Law site?

His username is: Keystoneridin!

Thank you for your help. Wikics14Wikics14 (talk) 20:24, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Radio stations
I wish something would be done about this. I didn't have a clue that basically all FM licenced radio stations are allegedly notable, and raised an AfD on one that didn't meet any of our notability guidelines, only to be told that there are essays and something out-dated about which AfDs are successful and which fail that I should have followed. But since none of this is in the guidelines, and it's all basically "we did this 3 years ago so we should be doing it now" so far as I can see, it needs to be either put in the guidelines or made clear that it is not part of the guidelines and the guidelines are what count. I'm not sure what to do about this though. Any thoughts? Dougweller (talk) 08:36, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

124.158.33.22 and other similar IP's in the range are suspected sockpuppets to an indefblocked user User:Aweare. It is currently blocked for one week. Would a longer block be possible since he will be back to user talk pages and personally attack other users? Please see Special:Contributions/124.158.33.22. Also talk page editing should be disabled as well. <font color="Brown">Momo san Gespräch 14:27, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks like it was already done, about a half hour ago. <font color="#CC7722" face="Papyrus">Tan  &#124;  <font color="#21421E" face="Papyrus">39  14:43, 23 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I would see the log for 124.158.33.22. Another admin thought they disabled talk page access but it didn't say that after "account creation blocked". <font color="Brown">Momo san  Gespräch 14:45, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Oops, yes. Done. <font color="#CC7722" face="Papyrus">Tan  &#124;  <font color="#21421E" face="Papyrus">39  14:53, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

You blocked 124.158.32.204 yesterday for block evasion but is now abusing the talk page. Can you block talk page editing for the duration of the block? See Talk page history. <font color="Brown">Momo san Gespräch 03:59, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

You are right of course
I'm going to try and take your advice, but she has been seriously fucking rude to me from the start even when I tried to be conciliatory, see her talk page. She clearly doesn't like having her admin decisions disagreed with. I think I'd better go to bed. Everything looks rosier in the morning. Theresa Knott &#124; token threats 21:46, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Gavin.collins
I appreciate your speaking to Gavin.Collins about his unwarranted call for a block of AlbertHerring. Unfortunately, I do not think it will change Gavin’s views at all. Gavin is very firm in his opinions and interpretations of policies, and does not change them no matter how many people show him he is wrong. Gavin is still firmly convinced his actions were right and the correct interpretation of policy. 

This is nothing new as Requests for comment/Gavin.collins, Requests for comment/Gavin.collins 2, Requests for mediation/Kender and the associated links clearly show. Edward321 (talk) 22:20, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

WP:COMMONNAMES
Regarding your comment at ANI, I have trouble being heard at the Willis Tower move discussion because of move supporters who cite WP:COMMONNAMES as trumping the WP:Reliable sources you mentioned. The move supporters appear to be making assumptions about what term the general public uses. A line from the WP:COMMONNAMES lead was pulled as a primary justification for the proposed move. This has been, in my view, successfully refuted as a case of oversimplification of the intent of the sentence and guideline. Any input you have regarding the use of this guideline, which can be digested by both camps at the discussion, would be appreciated. Sswonk (talk) 17:30, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Hehe, I'm BAAAAACK
Haven't been back on the wiki in a while now, but I think I'll start up editing again. Had to take a prolonged break after my RfA. (Family issues and Navy issues and school issues, woot to it being over) Anywho, just thought I'd say hello again. Undead Warrior (talk) 08:59, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

User talk:`GP
Heya, just checking what your thoughts are on this user's current unblock request. It has been a while since the original block, so I'm taking them at their word for now. Mainly, I don't see what we have to lose giving them a chance. Either way, your comments would be appreciated. – <font color="#28f">Luna Santin (talk) 01:24, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I was just mulling that over. Personally, I think you're giving them way too much of the benefit of the doubt. Like you said, though, what's the real harm - a couple reversions and another indef block, right? Go ahead and unblock; you're responsible for taking out the trash, though :-) <font color="#CC7722" face="Papyrus">Tan  &#124;  <font color="#21421E" face="Papyrus">39  01:28, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, I probably am. ;) I'd rather err in that direction when I can manage it, though. I'll keep an eye on things when I can. – <font color="#28f">Luna Santin (talk) 01:40, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

User talk:67.242.56.62
I recall you blocked this guy before for genre warring. He's back off the block now, and guess what he's up to? --King ♣ Talk  19:03, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
I'd like to thank you for your quick response and contribution to yesterday's request for semi-protection of Physical Education. Thanks again, Peace and Passion (talk) 20:00, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
