I just tried to access the edit diff by that IP on Yeonpyeong Island‎ and my antivirus kept blocking the connection because of malware on the page, this is the same story with all of their contribs except the one on his talk page. Can you (or someone else) please revdel them to prevent users picking up malware. Thanks in advance! Signed by Barts1a Suggestions/compliments?

Asgardian sockpuppet investigation
Hi. Why was the sock investigation closed without any conclusion rendered? It's fairly clear that it's Asgardian using those socks, and he has continued to violate policy since. He has been warned at that account for resumption of the behavior that got him banned, and he has left this message on the talk page of Off2riorob, with whom he edit warred in February 2010, an action that was used as evidence in the Arbitration case that led to his ban. Why was a conclusion not made? Nightscream (talk) 17:38, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I closed it because, at the time, all of the IPs had gone stale. The only IP that has edited since is 122.248.156.9 and it's their first edit in a month. If you feel there is enough evidence to re-open the SPI, please do so (bearing in mind that checkuser will not link named account to IPs). TN X Man  17:49, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

About deletion of article StNotepad Touch 3
Hi

Reposting it again since it has archieved.

I have added independent reviews on StNotepad Touch as the references to my article User:Rodriguezjuanjose52/Sandbox. Let me know about the further corrections and steps on posting the article.

 * I don't think either of the cited references demonstrates notability. Notability requires significant coverage in reliable sources. Neither of those sources is reliable as their content is, like Wikipedia, user-generated. – ukexpat (talk) 18:17, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Ukexpat is correct. The sources you have added are still not considered reliable. You'll need to add reliable sources before the article is ready to go. TN X Man  19:07, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

checking for improvements
Hello I'm an asshole, I've only ever had a handful of SPIs that I've opened and wondering if I'm doing anything wrong or if there is something I should do to improve in the future. I've probably spent more time fishing through diffs than I would like to admit so that I could try to be sure. I don't want to waste anyone's time including yours. Thank you, ⋙–Berean–Hunter—►  ((⊕)) 21:55, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm on my way out the door, but I can reply to you later this evening - sorry for the delay! TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  21:59, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm back! Sorry about that. In any case, I think the best thing anyone can do when opening SPI cases is to assume good faith. It's a trite and (on Wikipedia, anyway) over-used term, but it certainly comes in handy at SPI. I've found there are really two types of people that are investigated at SPI - POV pushers and serial vandals. Serial vandals are usually identifiable by certain actions and those cases can usually be processed quickly with a minimum of fuss.
 * POV pushers (or advertisers), on the other hand, require a gentler touch. Many come to Wikipedia unaware of our policies and of how the site works. Once you've been here a while (as you and I have), it becomes hard to remember how different a site this is. No ads. A collaborative atmosphere, instead of a competitive one. A neutral point of view, instead of a sell! sell! sell! view. And so on. When a new user is confronted with an experienced editor quoting policies and reverting quickly, it's easy to feel ganged-up on. So the user commits a seemingly minor offense of creating another account to provide support (after all, wouldn't this fly on other sites?). Is it intellectually dishonest? Yes - and I think they know that. But what I do not think they realize is how seriously it's taken on Wikipedia. Pointing out our relevant policies can go a long way to netting a good editor.
 * Now, how does this apply to you? You're certainly doing a good job keeping an eye out for Smkovalinsky and his socks, and for that, I'm appreciative. The only caution I would give you is that you can get over-enthusiastic. You can still whack the socks as they come up and do it in a way that won't scare off any legitimate new users.
 * Anyway, I apologize for the wordy response and hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions. TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  23:28, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 * No apology necessary as this is very helpful to me. You're right about the (over)enthusiasm. Since this area is new to me, there is a certain degree of excitement when digging through diffs pays off. My neighbors might have heard me let out a "Gotcha!" :) If I did it more often, it would be simple routine. For me, vandal-fighting was excitement in the beginning but is now just routine and I'm probably better at it because of it. I imagine SPI might be the same if it was old hat to me. I will bear your advice in mind and hopefully improve. Feel free to advise me anytime...your advice is welcome.

British School of Houston
Hi! I removed your PROD of the school since it goes up to grade 12, and therefore it has a high school. Typically high schools are notable. WhisperToMe (talk) 19:28, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigations/Abhishek191288/Archive
Hi, you had CU'd this report and marked and  as likely socks. However, Wikistalk shows only 3 pages in common (of 310 and 13 respectively) over an editing overlap period greater than 30 months. And even of the three common articles, only one edit is actually similar. Given that the former user is one in good standing, I find the non-technical evidence to go against any socking allegations. Is the technical evidence strong enough to over rule any non-technical observation? And, given these circumstances is an indefinite block justified? The user had placed an unblock request but it was declined citing the SPI. cheers. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  16:44, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * FWIW, the user apparently doesn't realize that a CU has been done and is asking for one to exonerate him. cheers. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  16:54, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I've rechecked the material and took a much closer look. It turns out the two accounts were editing at the same time on the same ISP. However, some of the other details don't add up and it seems unlikely they are the same person. Thank you for bringing this to my attention - an unblock would be a good idea. TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  19:43, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * THanks. Could you do the honors or would you like me to do it citing this conversation? Also, could you check Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents, the sockfarm is getting unmanageable right now across many articles and with AN3 reports from one sock on behalf of another and stuff. cheers. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  19:48, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the quick turnaround on both issues. Since YM and Nishkid are not active currently, the WP:India socks seem to linger on for a lot longer. cheers. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  20:23, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigations/Daniel Tee 2010
Hi, re Sockpuppet investigations/Daniel Tee 2010, how long does it take for accounts to become stale? I can probably find some more recent socks here. Adambro (talk) 17:07, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * About 3 months-ish. If you do find some more recent accounts, you'll need to make sure there is either behavioral evidence or other material to connect them to Daniel Tee 2010. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks! TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  17:21, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks, probably makes more sense for me to start a separate case based on one of the more recent socks rather than trying to link back to User:Daniel Tee 2010. The same behaviour in terms of adding false information is there with Daniel Tee 2010 but the individual has moved on to other similar articles and with the data being stale it has obviously started to become harder to link it all back.

Question about edit marked as spam
Hey there, I noticed that, several months ago, you marked an edit i did as spam. I added Albany Patch, which is a local news website, to the Albany, CA, page. I'm curious why you didn't think that was appropriate. We're a legitimate local news outlet. I was just curious about your thinking on it. You can reach me via http://albany.patch.com if you'd like to write back. I'm not sure how I would get your response otherwise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.61.98.22 (talk) 07:55, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for the explanation. We are certainly notable and are the primary news site in our city. We have been launched since June. Our parent company is definitely listed on Wiki. Are you suggesting that each individual Patch site also needs its own entry? Thanks for your help. We are listed on our city website, on our city library blog, and many other places... As a seasoned reporter, I have no hesitation in characterizing the site as "notable."

It's a legitimate news site. Patch.com has a Wikipedia page already. St. Petersburg Patch is the first to go live in Florida, followed by Patch sites in Bradenton, Largo, Sarasota, etc. It's a legitimate news site. It is not Spam. What's up?

Old Northeast Patch is a branch of Patch.com, which already has a Wikipedia article.

SPI Check
Not being experienced in SPI checks, I haven't done one for a long time, is the report OK? I presume I've misunderstood what the tool can do. Wee Curry Monster talk 23:38, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
 * No, the tool can connect users to IPs, it's just that the privacy policy restricts us from disclosing that information. Checkusers will connect accounts to accounts, but not accounts to IPs. I hope this helps. TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  23:54, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Does the decline mean you're not doing an SPI check to see if these are sockpuppets or you have and you can't publish? I'm missing something, so you might have to explain it like you're talking to a 3 yr old.  Wee Curry Monster talk 00:38, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
 * What this means is that I can't connect username accounts to IPs. So, even if I did run a check, I couldn't post the results to the investigation page and I couldn't (potentially) block anyone because people could infer connections if I did. TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  12:44, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

careers in the outdoors - deletion
Hiya,

I recently created the page 'careers in the outdoors,' you deleted it for claims that it was advertising.. my aim was not to advertise but to create an informative page for the event, can you give me some advice please for how I can modify the information so that it is not seen as advertising.

thanks for your help, Amelia.longbottom (talk) 12:31, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but the page really was an advertisement for the event. I would encourage you to read our information on writing your first article, as well as how to use reliable sources to support your article. You may also want to write a draft in your userspace (something like User:Amelia.longbottom/Sandbox) so you can work on improving the article before you move it to the mainspace.

CTM Equipment Ltd
Hi,

I've recently set up a wiki page to document the technical developments of a company I work for. The idea was to provide encyclopedic information for the greater good of people working in the Polyurethane industry.

However, I only got so far before I had to go out. Anyway, I came back this morning to see you have deleted it.

Please could you advise how I can revert this

Regards,

 * I'm sorry, but the page read like an advertisement for the company. Phrases like "has become renowned in the Polyurethane world for developing customer specific solutions to some of the most taxing issues in the industry" really don't belong in a neutrally written encyclopedia. I would encourage you to read our information on writing your first article, as well as how to use reliable sources to support your article. You may also want to write a draft in your userspace (when you're logged into your account) so you can work on improving the article before you move it to the mainspace.

problem publishing burning black page
Hi. I've a question. I'm trying to create a page called Burning_black, but i'm not able to do, the contents seems to be A7: Article about a band, singer, musician, or musical ensemble that does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject (CSDH)). I'm looking everywhere to understand how to make my content match it. The problem is that now the page for some reason is locked. What can i do now? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ericantonello1983 (talk • contribs) 16:15, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

I feel that speedy deletion was premature and request that you recreate the page so we can have a proper discussion.JQ (talk) 08:33, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Just repeating this request.JQ (talk) 05:36, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi, sorry I missed your note earlier. In any case, the category was deleted after a deletion discussion, listed here. If you would like to go over the consensus again, I think DRV would be the best place to go. If you have any questions, please let me know. Cheers!

 * This is part of a related discussion Categories for discussion/Log/2010 December 17. It would be helpful to have the two discussed together.JQ (talk) 01:44, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

About deletion of article StNotepad Touch
Hi

I found some articles related to StNotepad Touch on websites starbytecomputers and famouswhy. I have given them as reference to my article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rodriguezjuanjose52/Sandbox.

And I also noticed that StNotepad Touch got Brothersoft editor's pick award http://www.brothersoft.com/stnotepad-touch-432035.html. Can I show that in the article with a Award section?

Thanks and Regards, Rodriguezjuanjose52 (talk) 11:16, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but none of those sources appear very reliable. The Starbyte blog just appears to be a copy of the release notes. The Brothersoft link just appears to be a download page. TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  12:45, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
