Spyro Vandalizer
67.70.46.4 just keeps putting the false rumor back on the Spyro the Dragon page after you undid his or her edit and warned them. Please block him or her, obviously they'll just keep doing it. -- Aura24 (talk) 17:31, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry that I had to log off, but thankfully taken care of by a fellow admin as I left the report in place.--Tikiwont (talk) 12:25, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

instaVIN
Hello Tikiwont -- Thank you for the link. I appreciate it. I am still interested in getting the text of the deleted article "instaVIN" as I made some nice edits to the version I posted and did not copy them. I am planning to create a wiki page for the US Government database NMVTIS and will use a substantial portion of the article I wrote. Please paste in a talk session if possible. Thank you. Ehirtens (talk) 21:03, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Doesn't seem to be the ideal starting point, but I'd e-mail it to you. For the NMVTIS article, I'd start from scratch. Regards, --Tikiwont (talk) 18:37, 2 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I have enabled email so you can send to my address. Again thank you. Ehirtens (talk) 19:39, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Andrew Chavez
While I am aware you declined a speedy for A7, I considered the article was speedable on the different grounds of G11, hopelessly promotional and unrewritable, regardless of importance. I therefore deleted it. If you really think it needs a group consensus, let me know on my talk p. and I will revert.  DGG ( talk ) 23:19, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem, I the wall of text, the age and a contested prod in the history. The successive contestation Talk:Andrew Chavez and A New Romanticism here and the username are actually rather telling. --Tikiwont (talk) 09:23, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Recent request for confirmed user editing Michael Baumgartner page
Tikiwont,
 * Thanks for your concern regarding preservation of objectivity in the wikipedia articles, it is a testament to the credibility of important articles. I greatly respect the efforts taken to protect these pages from frivolous change. I must apologize, however, for my request came off sounding as if I intended to change the page as a lackey of a campaign manager, for such is not the case. Most importantly, i wanted to upload a picture to the page, owned by the campaign, for visual purposes. If it would be simpler to mail you an image for the Michael Baumgartner (politician) page, anything works, but I hope we can get an appropriate image of him uploaded soon. Thank you very much!

-Michael Morgan (talk) 18:40, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * ✅ Being able to upload the picture now, won't change the COI problem anyways. --Tikiwont (talk) 19:35, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Sorry
I don't mean to cause this trouble, I'm just trying to stop him from ruining the page. --24.104.71.134 (talk) 15:04, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't want to comment on the contents but User38563 has been blocked already but uses multiple IPs to continue to edit war and dish out personal attacks, so maybe protection helps. You've been edit-warring, too, but the latest revrts wer reversion of block evading edits. nevertheless, please try to help next time to not arrive at that point.--Tikiwont (talk) 15:12, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

Edit war help
178.105.188.78 (Some of the numbers change, but the 178 is always in the same spot) continues to undo everything I put up. He has also been undoing my edits more than 3 times a day, but I don't think he's getting in trouble because his IP number changes. Pages he's undone more than trice in a day are Arthur Abraham, Jermain Taylor and List of boxing triple champions. He also keeps on calling me names, like 'fuckwit,' 'fucking moron,' 'retard,' etc. He even called you a 'retard' on the Vic Darchinyan History. He also swears on the edit history pages for no reason, such as saying, "Cleaned up the usual dogshit" on Nonito Donaire History and "Cleaned up clusterfuck of an intro." on Jorge Arce History.

I try to explain why I feel my edit versions are right, but he just swears at me and refuses to accept my versions and will sometimes ignore me completly and undo my edit anyway.

Since I offered proof that he's been violating the 3-undos a day rule and keeps cursing on history pages, I was wondering if you could ban his IP address. TheShadowCrow (talk) 22:32, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, the case is known and I had already issued two ip rangeblocks and now adjusted one and extended the other. It is block evasion from User:User38563, indefinitely blocked for edit wearing and disruption and personal attacks, and ip socking of course only makes things worse. In other words, the block refers to a person who currently isn't entitled to edited, let alone multiple reverts anywhere under whatever IP. Nevertheless these are are heavy range blocks that may also affect others, so the need to be used sparingly. If the problem reappears as today, please highlight the latest changes. If I'm not around, report to WP:ANI, instead of massively reverting yourself. Thanks --Tikiwont (talk) 10:25, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * He's back. Under the IP numbers 89.242.251.94 and 64.31.59.26. It's clearly the same guy because he is undoing the same pages and is obbsessed with removing any mention of the IBO (International Boxing Organization), wants to delink several words and doesn't want the official division title names capitalized. Look at Erik Morales, Vic Darchinyan, Arthur Abraham, Jermain Taylor and Sergio Gabriel Martínez if you need proof.

Wouldn't this be repeated socking? Is it possible to ban someone's IP number or can they keep on getting new ones? — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheShadowCrow (talk • contribs) 01:05, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
 * No doubt the same person now using proxies and other available IPs who obviously doesn't heed the advice given below to abstain from socking and try to get back later through the main door. --Tikiwont (talk) 20:58, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

Block TheShadowCrow
He/she is a liar. TheShadowCrow is reverting my edits, then has the nerve to make outrageous claims like the ones above. Research his edits for yourself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.105.188.78 (talk) 01:45, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * You are currently blocked for edit wearing and disruption and personal attacks as User:User38563. Block evasion and ip socking makes of course only things worse. In other words, you currently aren't entitled to edit, let alone to multiple reverts anywhere under whatever IP. The only way to change that is to reflect on what people have said on your talk page, calm down, rarin form soccking and personal attacks and after you manage that for while, consider an unblock request. Only then you can expect others to check out anything in detail or continue to reason with you.--Tikiwont (talk) 10:32, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

Article name change
Hi, sorry to bother you again.

The title on Artyom Hovanessyan is wrong. His last name is Hovhannisyan. Could you please change it?

Thanks--TheShadowCrow (talk) 16:36, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

Also, can you change his first name to Art? That's what he'll probably be searched as more. --TheShadowCrow (talk) 20:38, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, I wouldn´t be sure about the exact name. The artcile has few sources and one names him Hovhanessyan. After you´ve settled the name on the basis of reliable sources, you can use the move button yourself. Redirects can take care of spelling variants and misspellings.Tikiwont (talk) 10:09, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

How do you add another redirect to a page? --TheShadowCrow (talk) 18:36, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
 * See WP:REDIRECT. Your move created one at Artyom Hovanessyan with the content #REDIRECT Art Hovhannisyan . So say if you edit Artyom Hovhanessyan by cliccking on the redlink and enter the same, it will then lead anybody from there to the current title.Tikiwont (talk) 10:44, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
