ACC Notice - Request 31129

edit

  Hi, I was recently going over recent request closures when I noticed that you made a mistake on this request. In this case the appropriate action would have been to Create the account and I have since done this for you. Please read the ACC user guide and/or be more careful when handling future requests as users who make frequent errors may have their ACC access removed at the discretion of a ACC admin. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact me on my talkpage or your favorite ACC admin. Cheers   «l| ?romethean ™|l»  (talk) 07:40, 11 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I noticed your edits to Weather Underground. I don't know if you'd find any of these sources useful, but they exist, [1] and there are many others elsewhere on that page. Many of those sources could be used to research numerous topics in the article. I'm not interested in discussing the subject or even looking at the article, but you might as well know what resources exist. -- Noroton (talk) 20:07, 15 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Was it legal?

edit

Thanks for unblocking me. The sysop decided I was someone else, a banned user who lives in Australia. The sysop blocked me accordingly to his (erred) intuition without a proper IP check. I couldn’t edit Wikipedia for a few days.

It’s a pity that the Wikipedia community does not allow users to prove their innocence, as you can see in this checkuser request about me: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Thantalteresco/Archive (as you can see, in this request there’s a link to my IP in Spain: miles away from Australia!).

My concern is that the blocking sysop has threatened to block me again—that is: blocking a user who is not the banned Australian!—if I dare to edit articles of my interest, as you can see in the sysop’s talk page:

If you are willing to unblock this account then thats your choice, when this editor turns up again in articles on my watchlist I will apply the duck test and re-block because I have no doubt its the Premier.[2]

I would like to know if (1) blocking an innocent user like me was a legal Wikipedia action and, if not, (2) where can I present a complaint about such behavior?

May I ask why you changed the block settings from "Indefinite" to "3 months"? He's still abusively socking, even after the original account was blocked.

Re Desiphral

edit

Thanks for your note. My concerns were:

  1. Desiphral admitted that his account has been used, with his knowledge, by other editors (from the same computer, so I'm not sure Checkuser would be especially helpful).[4]
  2. The 'Desiphral' account has been touted on elance, bidding for a job to create an article that the employer has already acknowledged was previously deleted under CSD A7.[5]
  3. The user seemed to be unwilling to acknowledge either of the above as a problem

I have some doubts about your decision to unblock, both because I think it sets an unfortunate example to other editors and I have little trust in the editor's word, given their previous actions (their quashing of this issue when it was raised on their 'home' wiki being another example). I believe you should have raised this in the AN thread where it was being discussed (and where there appears to be no consensus for an unblock) rather than acting unilaterally on such an important matter. However, what's done is done, and I have no intention of reversing your action. I appreciate that you'll be keeping a close eye on their edits, as will I, and I will reblock at the first sign of anything suspicious.

All the best, EyeSerenetalk 07:46, 10 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Homewood Health Centre

Thanks very much for your help with this user; I don't think there's any need to trouble yourself e-mailing me their new username, because I'll be watching the article. My assessment is that the person/organization wants to do the right thing and just didn't know what it was or how to go about it, so your having provided them with information and counseling was definitely the best thing to do.

Self-published sources

edit

As you were involved in the original Waldorf education arbitration, I wonder if you'd be able to weigh in on the question of what a "self-published source" is for this group of articles. What the question appears to come down to is this: is an academic researcher's work, published by mainstream publishers, considered self-published in this context due to that person once having contributed to founding a Waldorf school. (Referring to WP:RS hasn't worked, as 'self-published' isn't clearly defined there either, and in any case the question is what it means for this article.) Thanks in advance for any light you can shed. A word now may save a thousand later. hgilbert (talk) 17:11, 4 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Starwood Festival

edit

Dear Fred, Long time no talk.

I am hoping you can help me avoid getting into the same bind I was in before concerning Kathryn NicDhàna. I believe I have been following the advice I have been given by you, Thatcher and Revolving Bugbear, and others, that I am (as you said) "welcome to edit any article, including articles about associates, provided you cite reliable sources. It is best to not rely on personal knowledge."

I do not believe I have edited anything controversial. I have made quite limited edits to such articles as Starwood Festival, mostly adding citations and fixing links (and the odd revert of vandalism). I have not had an objection of any sort to an edit in a very long time. But suddenly, I am getting the old treatment from Kathryn, who is saying I should not be editing this article at all, and calling a simple mention of the Nemeton set up at Brushwood Folklore Center in the Nemeton article "astroturfing". I deleted a few nearly two-year old tags from the Starwood Festival article, and she returned them, adding an "advert" tag with no explanation of what suddenly made the article sound like an advertisment. To me, it seems to state facts without value judgments, and the lists in the article (which have had very few additions, and include only names that are notable enough to have their own articles) are comparable to lists on dozens of other articles about festivals. I have supplied lists of examples of this to the talk page twice.

I really don't want to be drawn into a rehash of the same old arguments. These issues should have been considered settled long ago. I am not adding external links to any website I am connected to, and I am supplying third-party citations to my edits. I am not editing only articles I am connected to, but edit fairly widely and responsibly. I think I am a valuable Wikipedia editor, and have both created and edited many articles that made a real contribution. But I need to be allowed to do so without another repeat performance of harassment; and that's what I consider accusations that I have no right to edit articles that arbitrations and arbitrators have said I can edit. To me, her latest addition to Starwood Festival is an invitation, or even an incitement, for editors to nominate the article for speedy deletion.

Please give me your thoughts on this. I know you don't want to see this become another big fight. I just want to be able to edit responsibly without being drawn into another contentious interplay.

I've also asked revolving Bugbear to comment on this. Thank you. Rosencomet (talk) 18:18, 9 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Indian Wars is out of line - POV fork

edit

You were out of line in re-creating the redirect to American Indian Wars into a separate article in its own right; did you not see the edit history? See Talk:American Indian Wars for the name debate and the why and wherefore; you've also done the usual cliche/myopic view of the Indian Wars as only being the "Hollywood" ones of the Plains and Southwest; the Pacific Northwest Yakima and Cayuse Wars and those in California also qualify as within the purview of American Indian Wars. The simple thing to do here is to just revert all your changes, right back to the redirect, which I may yet do, or someone will, as what you've done is create a Wikipedia:POV fork.Skookum1 (talk) 13:35, 12 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

It's fairly clear if you'd just read American Indian Wars, and the links above, and also read Wars of the indigenous peoples of North America.

robotics design

edit

Dear Fred, I am a new editor, but have read all the Wikipedia guidelines for new posts (some twice), but still please be patient with me if i am not on your level of understanding. I tried to add "Robotics Design" to the list of Robotics companies, and it was removed. I have also been trying to create several pages such as "ANAT technology " a technology which allows the creeation of modular robots that can shift thier shapes, but it was contested for lack of notability (?) and then deleted for being an advertisement by an admin named Fred, although no reason was provided to me for deletion, though i asked. Please help me out here, ive been doing alot of work on this, and i really think people would be interested to know about this technology. My main source for info is roboticsdesign.qc.ca, and i am finding more press releases by the day, although linking everyone is proving quite time consuming. Maybe its might have sounded like an ad to the volunteer editor, i dont think so, but regardless i find no logic in removing them from the list of robotics companies. Please tell me what to do, and ill be sure to do it. Thank you for your understanding Canadiansteve (talk) 23:49, 8 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Robotics Design

edit

Yes Fred i understand you don't want companies spamming and have read those guidelines, i wrote the page with students from the ETS university who study two ANAT robots in the mechanical engineering course and this is being written for infomational purposes, not advertising. I don't want to sound rude, but i am well aware of the guidelines, and to be perfectly honest, we copied the design for the [irobot] page to avoid any issues like the ones we are experienceing. The university student began giving up when we were bombarded with warnings from wikipedia, and now have all left after i had to fight with a couple admin as to why this wasn't just a great big ad scheme, so now yes, i am all alone and you can throw those COI warnings around all you want, (one promised to be back tomorrow) but regardless this is relevant information, and i am doing my very best to write from the most neutral point of view possible, so work with me a bit please. As a matter of fact, making an ad on wikipedia would end up being detrimental to the company, because it is an insult to what wikipedia stands for, and i just wanna follow the rules and make a good legitimate article for the site. Everone keeps sending me links to guidelines, but not telling what exactly is wrong with what im doing, so if i really am violating the rules, tell me, but if not, help me put this article on wikipedia. Even the "ANAT technology" page was deleted as being an ad, and i didnt mention any products whatsover, except a prototype walking robot that the only existing model is owned by ETS university. Please help me, im really tring to do this the right way and i dont know why i keep hitting a wall. Thank you for your understanding Canadiansteve (talk) 00:07, 9 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Robotics design

edit

Sorry to fill up your talk page, but i really dont want to fight wikipedia admin an more, so do you think it would be better for me just to request the article be written? That is basically what i did with the university students, although no internet was involved. I am worried that itll be requested and never be made, or the author won't understand what it is all about, as a certian level of expertise in robotics is required to write about it.

I am JDS. I am _not_ the same user as Jsmith51389. I initially left a message on BlueBoy96's talk page and got no response. A week later, I left a message for unblock-en-l in which I carefully explained that JDS is not JBS, and that my account should be unblocked. JBS is my brother. He has a history of sockpuppeting, whereas I have none. It is true that some of our editorial interests overlap, but our behaviours are quite different. I understand basic netiquette and believe that all change can be accomplished by honestly and openly using available channels. Blueboy96 did the right thing in eliminating sockpuppets which belong to my brother, but went too far in blocking an unrelated account which hadn't been used for more than a year and had no flames associated with it. Please unblock the account. I am available at hatwhite.com if you have any questions.

Hello Fred. I've been looking at the unblock request for 203.177.74.139 [8] for a while now. Though it has ports open I believe this is probably a closed proxy, restricted by ACL in some way, and therefore not available to our regular vandals. However your recent unblock and re-block makes me hesitate. I wonder if you could take another look, perhaps with checkuser, or explain what made you re-block.

Unblocking of Tannim1

edit

If I may ask, where did this "extensive discussion" take place, and why was an indef-blocked sock-master allowed to return in such a manner? I was under the impression that such people had to make a request for an unblock, which is then subject to community discussion, i.e. WP:AN or WP:AN/I. The contribs of since this unblock show this person pretty much picking up right where they left off; argumentative, pushing a minority point-of-view in a variety of articles, using non-WP:RS like Pajamas Media as sources.

Discussion with Tannim1 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) was on the mailing list unblock-en-l. I wouldn't call him a sock-master; his old account was blocked quite a while ago and he apparently thought things had cooled off, and he could just create an account. He has been counseled at length regarding appropriate editing, but needs help in locating reliable sources and appropriately integrating information into articles. If, after a fair trial, he is not able to edit, then he should be reblocked. Essentially, he is on probation. Please don't simply reblock him without giving him a chance.

Re:Mein Kampf Edits

edit

The edits in Mein Kampf are perfectly valid and the Ford translation IS a new translation and it IS more accurate. This is a fact which is documented in the book MK A Translation Controversy. Download a copy of the book(it is free) and see for yourself if you are unsure. Not one single reputable historian has stepped forward to criticize anything in the new translation. The only person who is screaming is Bytwerk who is not exactly reputable which can be seen from his postings. He regularly makes the same two claims over and over even after he has been proven to be incorrect on amazon. If the Ford translation is not what it claims to be, then let's hear from some real historians? No? Then until we have a concensus the information should stay. If you believe the wording is too promotional then by all means edit those parts or tone them down, but it is dowright dishonest to completely remove all references to a valid translation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Historyprof101 (talkcontribs) 01:09, 14 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
