User talk:YellowMonkey/Archive56

Finally, the block, thanks to you, ends
I'm extremely pained by your 24 hr. block against me. I treat it as a stigma, as going to jail is. The issue is I still feel that I haven't violated the spirit of Wikipedia or 3RR, though I've violated 3RR in theory.

Referring to the article Telugu script where all I wanted was to arrive at a consensus on the lines of Telugu language. I was ready to include Telugu-Kannada/Kannada-Telugu and Old Kannada script as well! At last, I only removed the "Ancient Scripts" reference, which I called RS/non-RS in WP:AGF, despite knowing fully well that it was non-RS. See what Mr. Lawrence Lo modestly says about his Ancient Scripts site. Finally, I agreed to including even this!!! But some chauvanists tried to keep only Old Kannada in place, which was totally unacceptable, as the most reliable source of them all, till that point A prestigious Indian government institution's reference to the Telugu-Kannada/Kannada-Telugu script was ruthlessly removed after being termed OR, non-RS etc.!!! Obviously, this newer invention called "Old Kannada" script hasn't been mentioned anywhere, in the above ref., probably by a scholar from Karnataka!!!

As I see it, this isn't the first time that you have succumbed to bait from User:Sarvagnya and company. You have in the past blocked and banned registered users based just on the complaints of this gang. You have also unblocked and on many occasions pampered this gang by acceding to their mostly unreasonable demands. You have given only 12 hr blocks to those who's business is only vandalism and warring under the garb of registered users.

How would you feel when some vandal deliberately comes and says Vietnamese originated from Old Thai, and removes a very reliable source of yours by just calling it OR, non-RS and what not!!! What else do you expect someone who is defending an article from some gang of users or sock puppets, except violating 3RR? Any solutions? Which is why there has to be a sufficiently big debate on dealing with users ganging up, just as 3RR and sock puppetry have been dealt. I don't think with this amount of non-neutrality, several hapless users of WP should be at your mercy.

Do correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks for all your generosity so far. -- Altruism To talk  06:39, 6 July 2007 (UTC)


 * You did 5 reverts which broke the WP:3RR rule. Large scale edit-warring is not allowed Secondly, none of the Kannada guys are multiple faces of the same guy, they have been checked multiple times before. That's why they are not blocked. I have not and do not have power to ban people unilaterally and have never done so. I permanently ban vandal accounts although computers cannot be banned permananently. I looked at your five reverts and all they did was remove part of the lead and the refs, leaving only one ref to a website. The website is by some guy in an engineering department of a university and is not aWP:RS since the guy is an engineer and not a linguistic expert. So your reverts made things worse. You are the one who is removing a source and leaving only a home made website which is unacceptable. You can carry on complaining about injustice if you so please.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 07:26, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I understand your block for the 5RRs. Let me correct you, the only site I removed was an Ancient Scripts reference who's author Mr. Lawrence Lo modestly says this about his Ancient Scripts site. The website by some engineering guy wasn't included by me. Do you have anything to say on the removal of my source An Indian government institution's reference to the Telugu-Kannada/Kannada-Telugu script, the most credible source till my block. You are confidently asking me to carry on complaining, probably because no sys-op/admin has been stripped of his privileges by way of votes from wronged users. -- Altruism To talk  08:30, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Well I am not qualified enough to immediately talk about the Indian government website. But in the revert sequence leading up to your block, I only see you deleting stuff. Have you brought up the issue about the govt website with the other editors?  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 03:09, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Image copyrights
Sir, I was reading this article Telugu script and it seems all the ancient script related images, though though they have been tagged "self made" seems to be a photocopy or something of similar images in a web site the article sources from. Is this a valid and acceptable practice.? The web page is. You need to click on the "Fig" links in the web page to see some of the script images. Others are there as is as you scroll down. The person who copied these images into the article has not even bothered to change the image caption. thanksDineshkannambadi 13:07, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Even the text material seems like a direct down load from these web pages on this site and hence a copyvio. in the article Telugu script, the section "General characteristics" seems to be copied from, the section called "Evolution of alphabet" and "Telugu inscriptions" came from this webpage and is pretty much a cut and paste issue here.Dineshkannambadi 02:38, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

The main page of this web link does claim standard laws and disclaimers here .Dineshkannambadi 13:12, 8 July 2007 (UTC)


 * The website is some home made thing. It is hosted at the page of some guy in an Engineering Department in Canada, and since he is supposed to be dealing with linguistics, he is just some guy with a website. So it is not even reliable to take photos from such places.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 07:26, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Ellwood House
Could you make sure Ellwood House now qualifies for DYK via its expansion. By my count it does, (whether spaces are counted or not), just wanted to make sure it wasn't omitted from the main page especially since it passed its GA nomination. IvoShandor 11:02, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi Blnguyen, I've reviewed Pham Ngoc Thao for GA, and put it on hold. It's very close, and all of my comments (on the talkpage) ought to be easily addressed (should you agree with them, that is!).

DYK-Ellwood
No prob, though that was probably the best of the four pics I had up from July 10. : ) Just glad to see it up there, the photos aren't a big deal to me, I just refuse to write an article that I cannot properly illustrate (at least that's the place I am at now), it's nice to see them on the front page but doesn't matter that much. As always, thanks for the kind words and your work on DYK. IvoShandor 05:47, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Tibet
Stop: See the subtitle please!!!!!! The Tibet.com citation is added outside the "Evaluation by the Exiled Community", so its wrong place and not for your "Tibetan POV". You also removed for unknown reason the Grunfeld sources regarding the alledged Mongol-Tibetan treaty. This kind of behaviour is regarded as vandalism.--219.79.120.208 06:24, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

The "unblock me" thread on my Talk
Is there anything much I can do about this thread, or is it just part and parcel of being an admin? Basically, I've explained the situation to the anon (who at one point was editing from an account, but seems to have given up) a couple of times and I'm not likely to change my opinion on this. He's not being objectionable enough to block, and neither would it help since there are a couple of IPs involved in his edits. He either honestly doesn't understand what I'm saying or is being childish - and the "bullet in my neck" business suggests the latter. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 05:28, 17 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Well some admins would just threaten the guy with block to shut them up. In any case, slocking your talk page also works.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 05:32, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Neil Harvey
Hi Blnguyen, thanks for your message. Okay, so I'll stop blowing a gasket every time you're accused of being a sockpuppet! And yes, Neil Harvey's article looks in a good state to start pushing to FA. Let me know if I can do anything. The Rambling Man 08:00, 26 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Looks pretty close. Can probably go for FAC after a look through by ALoan & co. The name of Haigh's book is not mentioned in the notes/refs. Did he throw right handed or left ? Tintin 17:25, 27 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Ya, unfortunately, ALoan isn't feeling so good at the moment. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 06:04, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

I have a Neil Harvey graph. You seem to have accidentally removed it in this edit a few weeks ago. I'll let you add it back in where you think it should go. Raven4x4x 05:27, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Harvey pic
It was from http://premier.cricketvictoria.com.au/page/harvey_robert_neil.html. I suppose that we can't be 100% certain that it was taken on Australian soil, but given its on a Cricket Victoria website, that'd be a reasonable assumption to make - no? If the copyright Nazi's (I'm not accusing TinTin of being one of course) feel strongly about this, I'm pretty sure that there's a very youthful pic of him in my "200 Years of Australian Cricket" which I could scan for you. Let me know if you want it. &mdash;Moondyne 02:28, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * If I were a c-Nazi, I would have tried to make an issue of out it instead of communicating it discretely to Bln offline :-) Tintin 02:33, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well I think the picture of Harvey's batting stance is ok. It was taken during an Australian home season and it looks like it was a pre-arranged photoshoot for a textbook....anyway, if we're short, we've a got a picture of his first wife here.Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:36, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Is it just me, but do the left aligned photos when placed immediately below the section title, overlay the title? I'm seeing it twice in that article. I can't see a problem with the markup and haven't seen this as a problem eslewhere. I'm using FFox. &mdash;Moondyne 02:45, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm also using firefox and I don't have a problem. In the instance of the sweep shot against India, the picture is longer than the section so it is invading the next part, but it is not overlaying the title. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:47, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Selective Deletion
If you felt that the article Telugu script was copied from a website, why did you selectively delete the Tables and left out the Brahmi script chart? This smacks of bias.Kumarrao 10:28, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
 * This was an oversight I missed. I believe only the text was mentioned in the complaint above you.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 03:09, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks, Blnguyen for reverting vandalism on my userpage. That was a "response" to my filing Suspected_sock_puppets. Nadirali was one of the users banned as a result of Requests for arbitration/India-Pakistan, where you were an arbitrator. The user's response also includes creating a silly Suspected sock puppets/Deeptrivia and Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Deeptrivia, which I've marked for speedy deletion, although I don't know if such pages could be marked for speedy deletions. Regards, deeptrivia (talk) 13:48, 16 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I had indeed noticed that it was a point violation, which is why I blocked him yesterday for 24 hours. In the meantime, Jpgordon has confirmed that he is a sock, so he was now indefinitely blocked and the year long ban has been reset. Another admin has already deleted the point violations.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 03:09, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Blnguyen for your efforts. Although it doesn't really matter to me, I was wondering if the sockpuppeteering case means User:Nadirali's ban will be reset to one more year from now. deeptrivia (talk) 19:54, 17 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Well I guess he's going to continue socking anyway. Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 02:13, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

PS: Okay, I just checked that it was indeed reset. Thanks and Regards, deeptrivia (talk) 19:55, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I don't think the page needs to be locked up. As you will see from my posts at the end of this section in the talk page discussion, I can introduce a collapsible box in the economy section, in order to make the default=collapse. I don't think this is a serious problem. Fowler&amp;fowler «Talk»  04:20, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Not to worry, I wasn't involved in the edit war on India. I was looking at the recent changes for vandalism, and not giving myself enough time to determine whether or not it was vandalism, I reverted the most recent edit. With the recent changes patrolling, you gotta be quick, or someone else will beat you to any vandalism. So, I reverted too hastily. Savie Kumara 05:15, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Oversight
I've been replacing that IP's request for oversight, since he's entitled to request what he wants. There's no need to remove it.--Rambutan (talk) 06:45, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The IP that posted the original accusation is the same as the guy who is posting the headline on ANI simply to get attention. It is the banned user Kuntan. Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 06:47, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but that doesn't mean that everything he posts should be reverted. How do you know it's him? Surely another admin could do this rather than you?--Rambutan (talk) 06:50, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, it's just a harassment campaign. If you keep on reinserting it, I'll ask that you be blocked.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 06:51, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

It's not a harassment campaign; if it is, let someone else deal with it. You're listed at WP:AN/3RR now, anyway. While it's a crap request, you've no proof that the IP is a banned user, and there's no reason to delete it: it's an admin hotspot, someone else will come along!--Rambutan (talk) 06:55, 17 July 2007 (UTC)


 * "while it's a crap request" ....are you admitting to be engaging in point violations?  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 02:13, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Anyway, in response to those comments, in the space of one hour, we had a set of TOR/open proxies pop up from a diverse range of places:US, Japan, China, Mongolia and Germany, to be precise, using whois (check my blocking log). Secondly, the allegations are nothing new and have been made by a self-identified Kuntan on the mailing list. One of the edit summaries of the TORs I blocked said "sure Kuntan". Also the TORs also had the same wiki-knowledge and one of them vandalised a subpage of, another Kuntan target who has reported Kuntan to police IRL. The WMF and Indian police are aware of this fellow's activities for a long time now.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 02:13, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Sivaji - repeated vandal attack. can you please help
Hi., i was helping a few folks wikify the Sivaji (film) page and Anwar has repeatedly engaged in Vandal attacks by repealing the article to a previous version without any particular logic. Check here and here and here. He has also shown his personal dislike for the movie here and earlier (Translation of tamil sentence: If the film flops, even at the expense of taking loan, i shall print posters in London to insult/humiliate 'grandpa' rajini]. I believe there is enough case for us to ban this user from the wikipage atleast for a week because i am unable to focus on building the article towards GA/FA with the repeated vandal attack. --Kalyan 13:39, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

RE Vietnam
The incidents you mentioned, which precipitated the Bhuddist Revolt, have usually been seen as civil disturbances rather than military operations against foreign forces or against an armed domestic opposition. This contention has been recently challenged by Mark Moyar in hisVictory Redeemed, which basically claims that the revolt was inspired and led by communists within the Bhuddist movement. Far fetched to say the least. RM Gillespie 11:56, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

I've been contacted by this editor asking me to review your block. Would you consider lifting it? It seems like they were confused by the constant flipping of WP:LEAD on this issue, and from a quick look it appears that they were discussing the matter on the talk page and didn't engage in any further revert warring after the matter had been taken to WP:3RR.

DYK comments
In your your comments here about Sivasubramaniam Raveendranath, you mentioned about Tamilnet and UTHR being used as a source. I was wondering whether you had madea mistake ? Please review the article again and per your comments about WP:BLP, I have removed information about Karuna. Thanks Taprobanus 14:39, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok, I have done so.  Blnguyen  ( bananabucket ) 08:55, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

DYK redux
Yeah, I can't resist it. It's too good for the articles to get that kind of broader exposure. Sometimes it is the only way to find problems that I would otherwise be unaware of, I know a fair amount about my normal topics but sometimes I stray into say, wind farms, which I know almost nothing about other than Wikipedia's coverage is woefully inadequate. : ) IvoShandor 08:28, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you
I'd like to thank you for the time you took to perform the Good Article review at Attack on Sydney Harbour, and the positive comment you made on conclusion of the review. -- saberwyn 11:33, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Another thank you
Thanks for your kind words on my DYKs. (I finally figured out how to nominate things!) I was so busy at work I missed seeing the last one. :-) - PKM 23:13, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
