ANI
There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.  Acroterion   (talk)   02:42, 19 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Advice for the future: Don't accuse anyone of lying.  It's usually pretty much impossible to prove intent, and it's probably uncivil and an AGF violation to boot.  If you have evidence someone just said something untrue or without foundation, you can say that.  It's not uncivil.  And it usually makes it easier to find agreement and get back to improving the encyclopedia.-- Elvey (t•c) 08:35, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I didn't accuse Nyttend of lying. I accused Nyttend of threatening to lie in order to get me blocked. Read the differential Nyttend even supplied.
 * Here are links to the relevant exchanges by Nyttend and Orlady and then Nyttend's threat at the very top of to get me blocked for repeat harassment of him when in the words of the blocking admin and himself said it wasn't harassment and he backed her at the time.
 * Do you know that Nyttend in his pursuit of me has gone to an Administrator's Wikipedia Commons talk page (Until this week when I uploaded a photo I've never edited at Commons) and used his backup account to contact an administrator. Use of backup accounts are acceptable, but Nyttend edited from his main account one minute after using his Nyttend account. WP:Scrutiny applies, read the one and only reason Nyttend says he'll use the backup for and compare it to his behavior,  and I addressed this Acroterion at the time only to get rebuffed. Sphilbrick's reply to Nyttend at Commons is quite interesting. He rebuffs Nyttend, pretty much saying he is irrational, and that rather than a block I should be getting a Barnstar. If you defend Nyttend's use of his backup, it is hard to defend a charge of forum shopping against him because he went to Acroterion for the very same reasons Sphilbrick had already dismissed.
 * Do you know I once tried to work with him on a article only to get rebuffed. Read this and this
 * He's called me a stalker at least once in a edit summary.
 * Nyttend has poked before. The original dispute that led to me being blocked which was overturned by Sphilbrick and which nobody defended the reasoning for, occurred Nyttend revived the topic after it had laid dormant for over a day. I'll supply the differentials if you really want to see it.
 * Note I supply differentials all the time. Been to ANI before, from both sides of a dispute.
 * Yesterday I saw both my physician about my malignant melanoma( I had a recurrence 6 months ago after 20 years of being clean. My talk page archives and user page have some mention of my melanoma history) and to see a person in regards to an offer I am being made for the rights to one of my ebooks I've written. Good stuff, not so good stuff, and I have things to do today too starting around 30 minutes from now that will keep me busy till afternoon Florida time....William, is the complaint department really on the roof?
 * Sorry, you're absolutely right - I accidentally misrepresented what you accused him of. I apologize for the mistake and bringing up Nyttend on your talk page.-- Elvey (t•c) 08:16, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

Blocked
You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page:. —Cryptic 12:19, 17 October 2016 (UTC) Are you bloody joking? ,, . I undid a improper close at WP:DRV and a administrator blocks me without warning and no explanation either. Where's the edit summaries?...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:25, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * You frivolously and repeatedly reverted a discussion closure, closed by a user with whom you'd previously been in conflict. What were you expecting? —Cryptic 12:29, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * What about WP:DRV that reads- "A nominated page should remain on deletion review for at least seven days. After seven days, an administrator will determine whether a consensus exists. WP:NADC reads 'No consensus closes (with the exception of WP:NPASR closes) should generally be avoided, as they require more difficult analysis of consensus. Those aren't frivolous. That's wikipedia policy.
 * I can not recall ever encountering this administrator before today.
 * Your block is totally wrong on various grounds. Be prepared to defend yourself at ANI as soon as it is removed....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:39, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Long-standing editor WilliamJE made two reverts and you blocked him without so much as a warning? Bad call. The Rambling Man (talk) 12:30, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you TRM. No edit summaries either and reverting something that both violates WP:NADC and WP:DRV. Read my edit summary....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:33, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Edits to Deletion review/Log/2016 September 19 - the only other ones by this user to DRV, so far as I'm aware - are also relevant. —Cryptic 12:49, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Not my only ever edits to DRV. Doesn't make any difference if they were. You haven't made any case for blocking me except that you don't like my opinion....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:57, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Rather, you haven't made any case for reverting User:S Marshall's closure besides that you don't like his opinion. Anyone even minimally familiar with DRV would know that closures by experienced non-administrators are not unusual, and had you opened a discussion on WT:DRV as was suggested to you on the Sep 19 page instead of (to all appearances) waiting for his next close to pounce on and revert, you would have been politely told the same.That said, I'll readily admit that I have no knowledge of your history with S Marshall, besides what's on the Sep 19 log; and I have no objection to an unblock, so long as you'll agree to stop reverting that entirely-proper close. —Cryptic 13:15, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * It was a totally wrong closure on two points. Which I made in my edit summaries. Your lack of edit summaries in your reverts is appalling as is you lack of knowledge of WP:NADC which reads ''No consensus closes (with the exception of WP:NPASR closes) should generally be avoided, as they require more difficult analysis of consensus.' A non-administrator had no business doing a closure here. See you at ANI....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:52, 17 October 2016 (UTC)


 * What is needed is Cryptic being stripped of his administrator powers because this block is absolute bullshit. Cryptic could have just closed the DRV as a uninvolved administrator rather than restoring a close that is improper on three grounds. That's if they concurred with the ruling....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:07, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Please don't inflame things, please just leave it with me and we'll get it resolved. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 13:09, 17 October 2016 (UTC)


 * William:
 * Please take the advice of Boing! said Zebedee
 * It would have been nice if you had included a link to the incident in question. Obviously, I can play detective and figure it out, but when you are asking someone to help, it is courteous to make it easy for them to help.-- S Philbrick (Talk)  13:20, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * With all due respect to you, I don't need to drop the matter. This bullshit block is now on my permanent record at Wikipedia and I have said to you at least one time before how much I dislike that. I won't drop the matter. Cryptic needs to be put in their place. They obviously run WP their way, bad block, ignoring the clear definitions of both DRV and NADC, why should they be allowed to to do this again?...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 13:52, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * You're not your own best advocate on occasions like this, and you may place more emphasis on your block log than is warranted. That said, based on a very short look (I'm eating lunch) I think your actions were ill-advised and so were Cryptic's. I'll look at in more detail when I have a little time available.  Acroterion   (talk)   17:06, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * William, no one said you should just "drop the matter". For the record, you wanted me involved, but didn't have the couresy to link to the incident in question. I'm not a DRV regular, so didn't know about this incident. I have now found it by looking at ANI, but you aren't starting off on the right foot by requesting involvement without a link, and then misconstruing advice given to you. In my option "drop the matter" measn say nothing about this ever again, while the advice given was "please just leave it with me and we'll get it resolved". In other words, there are people interested in helping you, but you have to give busy people some time to check out the incident, especially when you don;t provide links.-- S Philbrick (Talk)  20:39, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
 * For me, I'd just let it go. It's abundantly apparent to me that the block was a poor one, and if nothing else, just cracking on with improving Wikipedia will make you feel better and expose the block for the absurd action that it was.  The Rambling Man (talk) 20:48, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

January 2020
Your recent editing history at Sinking of the RMS Lusitania shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. (Hohum @ ) 00:50, 24 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Please abide by WP:BRD. Also, for the third time: WP:NOTABILITY and everything else you have referenced is for notability requirements for making a whole article on a subject, not just *mentioning* it in an existing article. Please revert your change and take it to the article talk page. (Hohum @ ) 00:52, 24 January 2020 (UTC)


 * No reference to any of this? Put these names in any community article they will get removed on that basis alone. WHat is the basis of their notability? Just that they are related to somebody famous. They doesn't make THEM notable. If they had an article on only that basis, it would be deleted per NOTINHERITED. You have to prove their notability. There is none at the present....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 01:14, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

Death of Kobe Bryant
Hi WilliamJE, I was considering removing the names of non notable persons from the article and would like your thoughts on this. - Samf4u (talk) 14:55, 30 January 2020 (UTC)


 * I don't think non notable names should be in aviation accident articles. Personally I have stayed away from Kobe Bryant stuff. Here's my reasoning-
 * 1- That article is going to be a magnet for both experienced and inexperienced editors for some time. People aren't going to like the consensus for not naming people in aviation accident articles. So some drama (I just got dragged to ANI over Galaxy Airlines Flight 203) is going to result. I think it is best to let things settle down before trying to take the names out.
 * 2-The article is Death of Kobe Bryant at the moment. If it gets renamed to something reflecting its clearly being a aviation accident article, then I think the time would be better for taking the names out. BTW I think the article should be renamed.
 * There is some other point that I was going to make but it is slipping my mind at the moment....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 16:30, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Yep, While removing the names is the right thing to do and we have a consensus to do so, I think it would ignite a firestorm of arguing at this time. Agree with name change and just posted on the articles talk page. Also, I did follow that ridiculous thread at ANI, the original poster is really a piece of work. Thanks much! - Samf4u (talk) 17:39, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

I'm sorry
I didn't mean to do this. Interstellarity (talk) 17:23, 8 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Mistakes happen....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 17:24, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

Your Signature
I see at the top of this page that you say you know your sig is confusing. If you know it is confusing, you should change it, it also is going aginst WP:SIGLEN and makes it hard to see who is talking. I had to look at the page history to see who made the edit as it looked to be unsigned. You can set somthing up so that way only YOU will see the "the complaint department" part. How to do it is shown at WP:SIGLEN as well. You liking it is not a resaon to have a sig that is highly confusing. Thank You.  LakesideMiners Come Talk To Me! 17:25, 11 February 2020 (UTC)


 * This has been my signature a long time. Please follow my directions to the complaint department....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 19:03, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * ,... the roof link led here, so I am in the right place.  LakesideMiners Come Talk To Me! 19:53, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , im trying to resolve this without going to the drama boards. and that commet you made would be consider rude as well. "I like it" and "his has been my signature a long time" are dumb reasons, it took me a good five minuts to find out that it was you who filled something to ANI about Xray. because it looked like you only did the timestamp.  LakesideMiners Come Talk To Me! 00:26, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Take it to the drama boards if you want. Somebody is sure to tell you to stop wasting their time. End of subject....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 00:30, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

William, I don't want this (please read it) to happen to you. More and more editors are criticizing your signature. If that results in a community consensus (as in the above case), I hope that you will graciously implement a change.  starship .paint  (talk) 02:25, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

a proposal has been opened reagarding your sig

 * William, you can see where this is going. We can avert that disaster, together:


 * ...William ( is the complaint department really on the roof? )
 * ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof?
 * ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof?
 * ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof?
 *  ...William , is the complaint department really on  the roof? 


 * You can pick a favourite colour if you don't like that green above. Let's get you out of this hole. Not all of us want to lynch you, otherwise they wouldn't have provided suggestions like the above.  starship .paint  (talk) 01:40, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi William. You and I have never interacted directly, but we have commented at the same discussions once or twice, and I have to confess that I have found your signature confusing - far more so than any of the other ones mentioned in the AN thread - because, as Ivanvector noted, it simply doesn't look like a sig. There is a clear consensus at AN that you should change it to something more obviously resembling a signature, or be blocked. I don't think blocking you would benefit the project; I also don't think that ignoring the concerns of numerous other editors benefits the project. The easiest way out of the woods seems to me that you should just change it, so that it's obviously a sig. STARSHIP has presented some pretty cool options above - why not just pick one of them and walk away from this? Girth Summit  (blether)  02:45, 19 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Just normalize your damned signature and let's get on with life. This is idiotic. Don't let Team Bozo kneecap you. Carrite (talk) 02:47, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Allow me to add my voice to those above who are imploring you to change your signature. I'm honestly surprised by the fact that so many others find it confusing, but apparently they do and this isn't a hill worth dying on. If it makes you feel any better, I doubt that most of those commenting at AN have it in for you personally. Lepricavark (talk) 05:16, 19 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Liking your own signature and having it for a long time are damn solid reasons to want to keep it. Don't let the chorus convince you you're digging your grave by trying to continue normally. It may be a valid problem, but it's their valid problem. InedibleHulk (talk) 01:33, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * There's nothing wrong with liking your signature, but editors should remember the primary purpose for signatures is to aide collaboration. If it gets in the way of that it becomes a problem, not just for everyone on Wikipedia, including of course the editor causing the problem. Depending on the circumstances, it may not be blockable in and of itself. But editors who keep keep doing stuff which they are aware is harming collaboration, and which they can easily resolve, are eventually going to find themselves blocked. I personally thhink the signature was dumb but not confusing, but it's clear other editors genuinely find it confusing. I didn't offer much comment on the issue on the AN since it didn't seem to be the right place as I was unconvinced the signature was a big enough a problem for a block in and of itself. But unlike others, I don't think there's anything wrong with expecting (not hoping!) that an editor who is harmful to collaboration is eventually blocked. The primary reason is not because of lynch mobs, or people carrying a grudge, but all to do with the fact that ultimately we are here to work together. And so editors who keep doing stuff which causes problems for that when they can easily not do so, are eventually going to be seen as a net negative. Nil Einne (talk) 10:21, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Today I had to defend myself from an editor who lied(My user page doesn't link to my books or my business and never has. First mention of any published book is April 2014. You can check) at ANI about my USER page and compared me to people who commit felonies. The same editor says 'Wikipedia's image hosting, are abused as a personal family photo album'. One photo of myself, which is used at Gerald Barbarito is somehow abuse. What's should the penalty be for lying and being  irrational at ANI? Maybe  can opine on it....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 20:53, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I can promise you that the userpage criticisms will amount to nothing as anyone can see that they are inaccurate. I agree that the DUI remark was very inappropriate, but it really would help if you would take a deep breath and keep your cool. I realize that you've been under an unpleasant amount of scrutiny of late, but responding angrily only gives more ammunition to your critics. (Also, I think you'll find that the Team Bozo remark referenced below came from, who regrettably is not an admin). L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 21:04, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * 'anyone can see that they are inaccurate' Why then did 4 editors (Nil Einne, Sharab, Xray, and Nick at least) respond to the thread without shooting down the lie? I had to defend myself because nobody else was....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 21:44, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , FYI, Nick said he is waiting for your responce to others before commenting, and its not their job to defend you, thats your job, but I did so because I felt it was the right thing.  LakesideMiners Come Talk To Me! 18:22, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I replied to Nil Einne yesterday which was meant for Nick or anyone else there. BTW you don't have to ping me at MY talk page. I get email alerts, plus the 'new messages' alert at the top of the WP screen. If you don't desire to be pinged by me also if I reply to you here, I will honor your request. It looks like you're watching my page anyway. Be careful you don't go blind because of it, LOL....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 19:34, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * its just Reply link doing it, I prefer being pinged as I don't watch userpages onwiki in cases like this. I have another external tool I use to get pings on IRC whenever a page gets edited. or a user makes an edit. thats not needed in this case. If someone  is involved  in a discussion. I keep their contrbs open in a tab and reload it every so often so I can see if they responded. I would advise that you tell Nick that it was intended for him as well.  LakesideMiners Come Talk To Me! 19:41, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * You know I feel like writing to in regards to something he could have done last Saturday after my speedy deletion nomination, but it is frankly going to take time. Which I rather spend time on other things the rest of today. Television watching, work on my next ebook, making dinner for me and my wife, and bingo tonight which means I won't be doing anything online from about 6:30 to 9:30 pm my time (It is almost 3 pm here now. Bingo starts at 715 but you must be there by 7). Which has been my normal routine for most Mondays since last October. I might start composing it today but don't expect it up before tomorrow....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 19:56, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I replied at ANI but not in the way above. Smuckola is a liar, and Tivvix is not much better. No editor here should have to take Smuckola's personal attacks or statements that are totally untrue. The things he said about my user page are wrong wrong wrong and uncalled for. Maybe I'll open a thread on his behavior....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:27, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I think there's a very slim chance that any action would be taken against Smuckola and an ANI thread would likely do more harm than good. This probably isn't what you want to hear, but at this point it's best to just let it all blow over. I agree that the statements were wrong and uncalled for, and I think they've been so thoroughly debunked that you shouldn't need to worry about anyone believing what was said about your userpage. L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 04:07, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Please read WP:ASPERSIONS. 'It reads in part= An editor must not accuse another of misbehavior without evidence, especially when the accusations are repeated or severe.' That's a arbcom ruling BTW. Smuckola violated it without question. He provided no evidence, and there isn't any. Why doesn't Smuckola face a block? He hasn't withdrawn the statements and they have had ample opportunity to do so....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:38, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Don't get me wrong; I'm done denying that Smuckola violated policy. It's just that most policy violations don't result in sanctions, especially now that a few days have passed since the remarks were made. L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 17:27, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * How about you going over to Smuckola's talk page and ask if they are going to reply to their being a rude liar? They are back editing again, so it is obvious they won't reply for the shit they committed this morning. I've pinged them at least twice....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 21:49, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Both myself and LakesideMiners rebutted Smuckola's remarks at ANI. If they don't reply with some kind of rebuttal, I think you should interpret that as a tacit concession that they were incorrect. Forcing the issue seems unwise, as does calling them a 'rude liar'. I've already been accused of bludgeoning for my participation in the thread, so I'd like to hold off for a little bit anyway. L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 21:53, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * It acauly took me a bit to even find what Smuck was even talking about. Thats how little William even talks about the books! The DUI comment was not a good analogy, they would get the same point across without even needing to use an analogy. If I had found this, insted of filling an ANI report, I would have just given William a trout.  LakesideMiners Come Talk To Me! 13:19, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * The first time I mentioned having a book published was here in April 2014. Note at the time my page read 'This user page is brought to you by Chaos, a Delaware Corporation and equal opportunity employer'. My publishing company wasn't formed at the time, that was an attempt (Go to this webpage to see where it emanates from) at humor. Even with a wikilink to humour, some editor a few years ago I don't recall who or when, didn't get the joke. My User page has never had any links to my company, author page (It isn't WilliamJE or anyone named William or Bill) at Amazon, or any of my stories. I have never linked to any of that anywhere at WP....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 14:12, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Today's lies and other crap comes just days after another group of editors (Called Team Bozo by administrator long-time editor here) tried to get me blocked for absolutely no violation of WP policy. That's a great example of people together around here, isn't it?...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 20:53, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Closed
As you dont seem to be redading the thread anymore, I think it is right to let you know has now been closed by User:Floquenbeam. You will be happy to know that you will not be blocked but I would advise you to read the closing comment. I hope this drama is all finaly over.  LakesideMiners Come Talk To Me! 17:49, 19 February 2020 (UTC)


 * (sorry, got pulled away by real life for a few minutes) I've closed the AN thread. That couldn't have been fun.  However, if you wade through all the bad feelings and ulterior motives, there are still a whole lot of people who are not your "enemies" who are genuinely bothered by your signature.  Please consider following Starship.paint's advice; any of those minor changes would be all that's needed to make 90% of people's concerns go away. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:01, 19 February 2020 (UTC)


 * There was no need for you to say sorry. Your ping was sufficient for telling me the thread was closed.
 * and Under no circumstances are either of you to ping me again or post to this talk page. It will be considered harassment if you do. That specifically includes this very thread also.
 * That discussion was retaliation for my taking Xray to ANI over their harassment of two editors.
 * I've stood up for other editors around here who I felt were wrongly treated. and . That's a practice I am not going to stop doing. That would be rewarding Xray and Sharab.
 * Also I am not changing my signature to satisfy a lynch mob or as termed them 'Team Bozo'. It would be rewarding the wrong people. An indefinite block for my signature. If it wasn't retaliation, there are some sick minds (And sycophants out there to unthinkingly follow them)  out there because what else can you call that form of disproportionate justice thinking. Remember the saying- The penalty should suit the crime? What crime? My signature isn't against any WP policy.
 * That's all folks....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 20:06, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Damned small molehill to choose to die on. Talk about rewarding the wrong people... Carrite (talk) 20:36, 19 February 2020 (UTC) Oops, my bad, hopefully. -tim /// Carrite (talk) 20:38, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

 * No, I thought you self-immolated rather than dusting the unconventional talk page link from your sig. Glad you did not. Carrite (talk) 22:06, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

William, I am disappointed on your decision. Yet, what’s important for you is not what I feel, but that this will be used against you in the future. I’m sure your stubbornness and hostility will come back to bite you again, and on these points, it will most likely be beyond my ability to help. These points have already been raised at WP:AN. I can only hope you avoid conflicts, because every conflict is a step closer to sanctions. On the other hand, if you perform a simple bolding, to satisfy neutral editors (say like Girth Summit), now, we have positive evidence of your ability to change. I'd say that’s a win-win for you, you help yourself, you help neutral editors, and why care about the ‘bad guys’? Just ignore them.  starship .paint  (talk) 00:54, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Munich air disaster
I don't see any reason why this needs to be a project-wide thing. There may be a consensus for those few articles you mentioned, but the full passenger manifest of the Munich air disaster is short enough and reported widely enough to be worth including in the article. Considering the info has remained in situ since the article was practically brand new, please don't remove it again until we've had a chance to discuss it properly. – PeeJay 12:35, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Regarding ArbCom
William, I see that you are considering taking the matter to ArbCom. Based on my prior observations, I'm fairly confident in saying that there is a 0% chance that ArbCom would do anything to Smuckola. ArbCom is not intended to deal with first offenses, so unless you can show a pattern of similar behavior, your case request will be declined. Moreover, there is a non-zero chance that you could end up in further hot water for refusing to let the matter drop. I know you're probably getting tired of hearing me say this (and I'm getting tired of saying it), but Smuckola's comments weren't actually that damaging to you. As far as I can tell, not a single editor expressed agreement with their inaccurate statements about your userpage. It was obvious that they were wrong. However, by making a big deal out of it, you've attracted negative attention to yourself, and that's something you particularly don't need right on the heels of the signature brouhaha. Smuckola has moved on and you've really got to let it go. If they attack you again in the future, let me know and I'll do my best to see that the situation is dealt with. Otherwise, this can all be forgotten. L EPRICAVARK ( talk ) 07:52, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 710
So...because Judge John A. Sbarbaro who was "a prominent Chicago judge. His extensive law career included roles as Assistant State's Attorney, Municipal Court Judge, Criminal Court Judge, and Superior Court of Cook County Judge. At one point he also ran operations for the BAA Chicago Stags franchise." in addition to his ties with the Chicago underworld during the Capone era is not deemed worthy of mention on this article because he doesn't have a Wikipedia entry. Really. You sound like a pretty heavy-handed hall monitor there, WillamJE.

I'll include this on the talk page so people looking for information may, just might mind you, stumble on to it on the talk page. RRskaReb talk 15:08, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

First, naming aviation accident victims in articles has been discussed multiple times in recent months-


 * Here- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Northwest_Airlines_Flight_255#Should_Cecelia_Cichan_be_mentioned_by_name?


 * Here- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:1943_Gibraltar_B-24_crash#Question
 * And how about a little over a month ago- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Galaxy_Airlines_Flight_203


 * And how about this week- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Aviation/Aviation_accident_task_force#Here_we_go_again-_Munich_air_disaster

The consensus is that unless they have a WP article, we don't name survivors or deceased from a plane crash with the exception of the cockpit crew.

Secondly, Sbarbaro is a local judge and official. Read WP:JUDGE and WP:NPOL. Most such people aren't WP notable.

Thirdly, your source for the judge's notability is Find a Grave. FAG (or paid obituaries) fails WP:RS/P. Experienced WP editors know that. Please read....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 15:32, 29 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the response. Pretty sure the spirit of that rule is if I typed something like, "Among the victims was Shriley Baumgartner, 35, of Poughkeepsie, New York, homemaker" that would be considered extraneous information and I agree with that.  Also, I don't remember what the original source I posted was.  What I included in my response to this was merely something I picked up on the fly.  OK.  So I'll upload a Wikipedia bio on the judge and then put him back in the notable victims section.  Would that be acceptable to you?


 * Looking around we have: The People v. Sbarbaro, 55 N.E.2d 172 (Ill. 1944)  "In this cause twelve separate cases, all bearing the same title, have been consolidated in this court. They are all entitled The People of the State of Illinois ex rel. George F. Barrett, Attorney General, vs. John A. Sbarbaro, Judge of the Superior Court of Cook County and Ex-Officio Judge of the Criminal Court of Cook County, and the Criminal Court of Cook County."


 * Here we have an article written by the judge in the University of Chicago Law Review on marriage


 * Here in Life magazine he wrote a letter to the editor and mentioned his many years as a judge in Cook County


 * His involvement as "undertaker to the mob" in Chicago here


 * Here is his involvement as a prosecutor against Leopold and Loeb


 * I could go on. What is it about "notable" that you do not understand?  Since when would a judge of the superior court in Cook County, Illinois not considered to be "notable"?  Really wonder what your thinking is on that.  I guess Los Angeles County and Manhattan don't make the cut, either.  I believe a little common sense and a reasonable amount of latitude in articles here would make Wikipedia better.  RRskaReb  talk 17:04, 29 February 2020 (UTC)


 * You came here with an attitude, calling me a hall monitor. Then you say 'What is it about "notable" that you do not understand?" I cited consensus and WP policy on reliable sources. Maybe I will report you to ANI for violating WP:NPA. Don't edit this talk page again or it will considered harassment....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:46, 29 February 2020 (UTC)


 * WilliamJE, I've read through the above, as requested. I agree that this approach was somewhat problematic, but you have asked them not to post here again and so far they've complied with your request. I don't think this approaches anything requiring an ANI thread yet - is there anything further you think needs to happen? Best Girth Summit  (blether)  11:22, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Gary Player
Hi. You'll likely notice it anyway, but I've redone my previous edit and removed the rogue citation (which I should have done originally) as the (primary) source is an unreliable one. His Sunshine Tour profile page, while also inaccurate, does at least confirm some of these (e.g. skins games) as being non-tour events. As per Articles for deletion/List of golfers with most Sunshine Tour wins we are unable to verify the number of Sunshine Tour wins, especially for those playing in earlier eras. In addition, the tour is generally recognised as starting at the beginning of the 1970s which would preclude a large number of Player's wins. Regards. wjemather please leave a message... 09:54, 6 April 2020 (UTC)


 * My problem with your edit was you added something to a sentence with an Inline citation on it and the IC doesn't confirm what you had added. That's one of my pet peeves around here. I'm fine with your fix. In fact the use of Gary Player's own website as a source for his wins was improper and it was correct to remove it....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 10:00, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to assume ownership of articles, as you did at Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/United States of America, you may be blocked from editing. Behavior such as this is regarded as disruptive, and is a violation of Wikipedia policy.

I and another user now both disagree with your stance regarding the subject that was recently listed there (diff, diff). Please stop censoring the page per your personal preference. Your ongoing WP:OWNERSHIP actions on the page is disrputive. North America1000 17:59, 5 May 2020 (UTC)


 * To elaborate further - that category, with its intended use, would be very useful to track federal-level subjects that aren't particularly relevant to one state. The focus of the article is clearly on service in the federal armed forces. I shouldn't have to watchlist 50 state pages, whose local topics I don't care about (I mostly only edit California topics), to keep an eye on the federal level stuff, which I do care about. Your interpretation of the rules is not the only interpretation that matters. I'm not going to violate 3RR, so I'm done reverting. CJK09 (talk) 18:05, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Guidelines aren't iron-bound. Ignoring all rules is one of the five pillars. I wasn't around for the discussion, but I have to imagine that the guidelines were intended to keep the endless non-notable articles about local "celebrities", railroad sidings, ice cream shops, etc, out of the national category. Rules should be followed by the spirit, not the letter, and you are singlehandedly making that AfD category nearly useless.

Hi, WilliamJE. I notice that you proposed two consensuses in the past, and they both passed. Seeing your edit summaries, these are the two consensuses:

Consensus #1: Do not list non-notable people on an aircraft accident unless they are cockpit crew.

Consensus #2: I do not know the name of this consensus, but adding material such as "Saudia Flight 163 is currently the worst aviation disaster not related to a crash" is not allowed due to a consensus that prohibits that.

"Used in the incident" was the problem
Hello you left a message on my talk page explaining the difference between aircraft accident and incident. However that wasn't the problem I had with an edit of a person. The issue arised from him saying the aircraft was "used in the incident". The wording can seem suggestive as someone was deliberately utilising it. Regardless, I do accept that I misunderstood the term "incident" here as I didn't know it refers to incidents without casualties in aviation terms.
