NPOV

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.--John 18:41, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your message. Please do not misuse the term vandalism; it has a specific meaning here. --John 18:44, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

No problem. My welcome to you was sincere. If ther is anything you need help with please let me know. --John 23:50, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Feel free you come along and help out here! Choose one article and help improve that!!

UK Cities template

Please stop removing the UK cities template from valid UK cities articles. Ben W Bell talk 02:53, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Derry

Whether you agree with it or not, Derry/Londonderry is a UK city. In an encyclopedia article, the only thing that matters is factual information, no matter how inconvenient or unpopular. SteveRamone 20:08, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

POV concerns

I'm concerned that your statement on your talk page, "I support a free and socialist republic in Ireland and Britain" when coupled with the above referenced edits and you AfD nominations, which seem disingenuous (how can you call an article "unreferenced" when it has 4 refs in it?), make your edits appear to be an exercise in politcal POV-pushing and advocacy. Please see WP:SOAP...we're not a forum for soapboxing or other forms of advocacy. Please keep your political beliefs away from your edits. Thanks. AKRadecki^Speaketh 21:51, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

(after EC w/ John) Also, please be aware that there has been a ruling at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/The Troubles/Proposed decision which says: "To address the extensive edit-warring that has taken place on articles relating to The Troubles, as well as the Ulster banner and British baronets, any user who hereafter engages in edit-warring or disruptive editing on these or related articles may be placed on Wikipedia:Probation by any uninvolved administrator. This may include any user who was a party to this case, or any other user after a warning has been given. The administrator shall notify the user on his or her talkpage and make an entry on Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/The Troubles#Log of blocks, bans, and probations. The terms of probation, if imposed on any editor, are set forth in the enforcement ruling below." I consider your AfD noms to be within the purvue of this ruling, and you can consider yourself duly cautioned that further POV editing will result in a block.

Various

Hi again. I have a few concerns with your editing pattern which I want to share with you.

• Your user page contains "I support a free and socialist republic in Ireland and Britain and an end to the British occupations of Iraq, the North of Ireland and Afganistan." This contravenes Wikipedia:User page; Jimbo Wales is quoted as saying "using userpages to attack people or campaign for or against anything or anyone is a bad idea". There is also WP:SOAP which provides guidance about this sort of thing. I'd be grateful if you could modify your user page so it is in compliance with our policies.
• I note you have removed a template from several Northern Irish cities, in one case twice, even after you were warned not to do so. This looks tendentious to me. Please don't continue this behaviour.
• Your nomination of two articles on peers looks suspect to me, as another admin has already pointed out in one of the AfD discussions. Were you trying to make a point? It looks like it to me. Please don't.
• Finally, and this is the big one, are you really a new editor or have you ever edited Wikipedia under another user name? I ask because it is very rare indeed to see a genuinely new editor nominate articles for deletion on their first day here. I hope you don't mind me asking you these questions, but these edits just don't look right to me. It is my job to help keep things running nicely here and my questions are asked with that in mind. Best wishes, --John 21:58, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

opinion vandalism

Concerning this edit and some of your previous edits. It doesn't matter if you recognise the terms or the state of Northern Ireland, but this is an encyclopaedia. Please stop editing Wikipedia to push your POV on the articles. Changing things because your political outlook doesn't like them is considered vandalism. You have been warned before, so please stop this vandalising and help contribute to Wikipedia in a constructive manner. If you insist on continuing to edit according to your POV against the aims of the project then you may be temporarily blocked from editing, so please stop. Ben W Bell talk 18:00, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Probation and ban

I formally warned you above about editing articles on Northern Ireland that are subject to the ArbCom ruling, and it is clear that you have chosen to ignore the warning and continue in your disruptive editing. Therefore, in keeping with the formal decision at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/The Troubles/Proposed decision, you are hereby placed on formal Wikipedia:Probation and banned from editing any pages related to Northern Ireland, the Troubles or British Baronets, and this probation and ban will remain in place for a period of one month, expiring on December 19, 2007. You may edit related talk pages, but not the articles themselves. Any violation of the ban/probation will result in an actual block of all editing priviledges. In addition, other disruptive, vandalistic or POV-pushing edits elsewhere may lead to blocks under the normal process. AKRadecki^Speaketh 18:47, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
