Blocked for violating restriction

You are now blocked for 3 weeks for editing both Great Divergence, Economic history of China (pre-1911) and Chinese economic reform in violation of your editing restriction. Your editing restriction will remain in effect after the block has expired. Toddst1 (talk) 14:09, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

How is Chinese economic reform and Great Divergence in my editing restriction? GPM has edited it exactly twice in the past month and hasn't commented there in weeks. This is an obvious case of trip-up. First the above user invites me to comment on ANI and then blocks and topic bans me for putting an issue on ANI (this alone is extremely outrageous) Then he blocks me for 3 weeks for the "crime" of editing an article that GPM edited 3-5 weeks ago. This is outrageous. If wikipedia treats its contributers like this it won't last long.Teeninvestor (talk) 14:49, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

GPM as edited the article within one month. I will take this to ANI. Toddst1 (talk) 17:39, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Unblocked with caveats

Per the e-mail you've sent me, I've unblocked you, as long as those provisions are kept. However, remember to keep a cool head, don't act rashly, and don't interact with GPM. Avoid the controversial articles, and all of that jazz. --Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 03:09, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Are there any other areas you could would like to contribute in for a couple of months and perhaps at your RFCU offer to voluntarily take three months off editing the disputed topic and associated articles to gain experience in policies and guidelines. Off2riorob (talk) 15:12, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

I hope you don't disappear. I've always enjoyed learning new information by reading the articles you create. I thought I wrote a thank-you for Qing conquest theory but it seems I never saved the edit. —Soap— 23:07, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Recent actions

I saw Gun Powder Ma's recent tag on Chinese economic reform as it happened, and seeing that it was dubious (from what I read about the Chinese Civil War), looked to the Loren 4 source to find the unsourced fact and indeed it was there. When I went to cite it, though, you had already done it with an aggrieved edit summary. Your assessment that it was a provocation was probably correct, though you are not flattered in the new ANI complaint for which GPM used that edit. My suggestion would be to not be so quick to take the bait, when uninvolved editors can easily fix it. If you had waited five minutes there, you would probably look much better (and GPM worse) to uninvolved judges. Quigley (talk) 19:27, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Review of Article

Hi, before I even start to review it, please updated your references. Please look http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_book to see the proper format to reference a book; all the book references you are using are not in a proper format. Look at example 1 and example 2 on the link i posted. Article looks good tho! Cheers! Meishern (talk) 21:23, 15 August 2010 (UTC) ...i pasted the link .. not sure why didnt work before, sorry. Cheers! Meishern (talk) 13:35, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

I am failing the GA nomination of the article Chinese economic reform.

Reasons:

1) Article is unstable with too many changes made every couple of days for 8+ weeks. 2) Edit wars about this article over the past 30 day involving multiple parties. 3) Person who nominated the article was banned for 3 weeks because of comments pertaining to the nominated article. (Whoever nominated the article should be present to at least answer 1 question from me, this is not a Wikipedia rule, it is my own. The previous 2 points above are Wikipedia rules and warrant failure of the article)

Please restart the GA nomination process when either a consensus is reached or the article becomes stable.

Cheers! Meishern (talk) 22:12, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Blocked again

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 3 weeks due to your continued hounding and accusations against Gun Powder Ma (talk · contribs) as evidenced in this edit summary as well as other edits. If another admin considers unblocking this editor, please consult with me first. Toddst1 (talk) 19:48, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

In case there was any doubt, your interaction ban remains in effect. See Wikipedia:Editing_restrictions#Final_warnings. Toddst1 (talk) 17:02, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Unblock request

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

---

Request reason:

Explanation: I was blocked for "violating" an interaction ban put in place for an early release to a 48 hour block that the community had deemed ineffective, and even the blocking admin stated that the restriction should have been modified. 1 2 3 4 5. Prior to my block, I was under the impression that community discussion had overturned the sanctions; I was not given as much as a warning. In addition, even assuming that the block was correct, a three-week block for violating a restriction put in lieu of a 48 hour block is completely disproportionate and a great example of WP:GAME (the "punishment" block being ten times the length of the original block); at most, I should serve twice my original block, which I have already. For these two reasons I believe the block should be reduced or eliminated altogether. In addition, I question the actions of the the blocking admin, user:Toddst1. He has been completely one sided considering that he had completely ignored massive bouts of personal attacks and harassment from the editor I "harassed" (although I had performed no personal attacks but was restricted for posting on ANI) 1 2 3. 1 even when I brought it to his attention on his talk page. He advised me to go to ANI 3. The most outrageous part is when he blocked me for following his advice to go to ANI and imposed the sanctions on me which lead to this block in the first place (I also ask for a review of my initial block and resulting sanctions which I also felt to be illegitimate, as they were imposed for going on ANI).Teeninvestor (talk) 23:10, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Teeninvestor indicates that the community considers your editing with respect to China to be very problematic. Whatever the merits of this particular block, I am not convinced that unblocking you would be a benefit to the project, except if you agree to abide by a complete topic ban from everything related to China.  Sandstein  07:40, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

WikiProject Economics Newsletter (Issue IV)

Positively Economics The Economics WikiProject Newsletter Issue IV (September 2010)
Use the show/hide button to display or hide this newsletter. From the editor After a brief intermission over the Northern hemisphere summer season and the Southern hemisphere's mid-winter, Positively Economics is back. In recent weeks it has been my privilege to work on countering systemic bias with a couple of articles on the economic history of Uganda. Projects like these help, little by little, to open up new areas on knowledge to Western audiences. Indeed, with English in the ascendancy when it comes to second languages, many other audiences too. Both of the new creations made the front page via the Did you know? section for newly-created or significantly expanded articles. I would encourage other editors, particularly those who like badges, to try to get more economics articles onto the front page through this and other sections. Those with a particularly competitive bent might also wish to consider signing up for the 2011 Wikicup (great for focussing the mind). - Jarry1250 [Humorous? Discuss.] 18:55, 1 September 2010 (UTC) Example chart New bot User:LivingBot has just been approved on Wikimedia Commons to compile and upload SVG graphs based on monthly time series of, for example, UK interest rates (illustrated). It will then revisit these on a monthly basis to update them with the latest information. If you would like to bot to create and update a graph for you, get in touch with its operator. Articles of note New featured articles: None New featured lists: None New featured topics: None New good articles: Jevons paradox Redlinks to be squashed Skysmith has posted an updated list of missing economics topics. Most will need redirecting or new articles written to blueify them, so, if you can lend a hand with the effort, please do. There are some from virtually all areas of economics and hence to suit all tastes. Project news Unassessed articles: A whole swath of articles have been added to the WikiProject recently, mainly on notable economists. They are yet to be assessed on their talk pages; this also provides a good opportunity to check and improve some of our least monitored articles. Unsourced BLPs: Before the articles about economists were added, the project had very few unsourced biographies of living people; now there are a little over a hundred. If we can clear them, however, then it is unlikely that there will be many more. Again, they represent some of our least cared-for articles, and often present good targets for cleaning up.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 03:06, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

March Madness 2017

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

• tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
• updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
• creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of The Han Net

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The Han Net requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. DrStrauss talk 18:57, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
