Malcolm Andrews book

edit

I noticed the article John Devitt, and you cited a book called "Australia at the Olympic Games" by Malcolm Andrews. Is it a published book with an ISBN and all that? Do you happen to know if it covers the Winter Olympics as well? (I recall one book with the ABC logo on it that covered the Summer Olympics only, so I may have come across this book).

Good on you for the work you're doing - one reason why I work on Winter Olympics is that it's a managable task! Andjam 12:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Orange County page moves

edit

Hi there. I reverted your removal of the {{db-reason}} tags from the Orange County page move remnants. The redirects are not useful because the areas in question are not part of the respective cities. What's more, the person who moved them has admitted to moving the pages to illustrate a point (see Talk:Anaheim Hills, California#Straw poll, near the bottom).

Sydney regions

edit

G'Day

I have been adding some information to some of the southern Sydney suburbs and Sydney Regions.

I would like to request a change to the suburbs categories box for 'City of Rockdale'. This box should be linked to Southern Sydney rather than South-Eastern Sydney. Just like Kogarah and Hurstville already do. It would also be really good to have an extra link to the 'St George' region (if possible) for all 3 local govt areas of 'City of Rockdale', 'Municipality of Kogarah' and 'City of Hurstville'.

Also, in 'Regions of Sydney' category box there should be a link to Upper North Shore. We already have Lower North Shore and North Shore there. I have created the page but can't link it.

In the 'City of Rockdale' can you please include the suburb of Kingsgrove? Also, in the 'City of Hurstville', I think the suburb box would look neater without the localities (which aren't really that well-known anyway). A minor edit for local government area of Hunters Hill. It should not have an apostrophe in Hunter's.

Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by J Bar (talkcontribs)

I'm not really sure. I'm not in Sydney (from Adelaide and have only spent a month in Sydney but it was at Bonnyrigg, New South Wales the whole time) so I don't know much about geographic accuracy. When I created the templates, I just copied the list of suburbs from City of Rockdale and used "South-Eastern Sydney because the City of Rockdale article said so - actually it didn't I did a copying error so I fixed it to southern. If you think there are suburbs missing then add them and discuss at WikiProject Sydney or User:Nickj, the Sydney suburbs guru. Your changes seem reasoned, but I'm not really the best person to know about Sydney geographical consideration, so wait a bit. Regards, Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 06:03, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi Blnguyen! J Bar's suggestions concerning adding/removing suburbs/localities seem to be inline with the principles discussed at Talk:List of Sydney suburbs, mainly base don the GNB data, so I've implemented them. JPD (talk) 10:46, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Category for cricket

edit

Justin Langer shows up as an Australian Roman Catholic, Mark Taylor as " People of Wagga Wagga" , Clive Lloyd as Freemason, all the Australians have the state/city cat and this cat is APART from the state cricket cat,Phil Tufnell has a Winner of TV program category, David Gower has "people living in Kent" . So all these categories are not "relevant" from the cricket point of view and not from the individuals personal life point of view either. So where does one start or stop with such categories, why stop at religion and say state/ associations alumni categories not related to cricket are OK ? One should then look to remove all these categories. But then clearly the number of categories impacted would have a large number of people who would want them back, so why are we playing god and saying we cannot put categories related to religion for the cricketers and allowing all these superflous to cricket categories ? The aim is not to remove these categories as they clearly mean something to people who can identify with them, but to be more inclusive. Haphar 13:50, 31 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Adelaide University Lacrosse Club

edit

Hi why did you tag the Adelaide University Lacrosse Club article for deletion?

I have tried to fathom what your intent is with this. I am unable to understand how this edit fits in with wikipedia policy. Your comment tag does not make sense to me. "nn university club"

The article was linked from the Adelaide University Sports Association article. It is one of 3 articles I was preparing. The other being the Boat Club and 3rd as yet to be put up Tennis club.

These are the original 3 clubs of the Adelaide University Sports Association and represent a critical period in the development of sport at the University of Adelaide in the 19th Century.

Congratulations on your RFA

edit

Congrats on your RFA! Sorry your most recent FLC isn't getting too far at the moment: I think it can get there, my concern is that the references don't meet WP:CITE. Fix that and I think you're there: it's certainly extensive and well-researched. I just discovered Charles Floyd (conductor) - yet another part in the great Ron Sorensen spamwave of 2005. (Aren't "user contributions" and "what links here" great for this kind of thing?! Probably worth doing just before you speedy anything...) I slapped a speedy tag on it, there's a prod on Ron Sorensen's sole album, and there's a CFD debate on his "albums" category... this seems to cover the entire series of articles now. But just because it's wonderful and it's all about to be removed from Wikipedia otherwise, I think it's worth including a quote from one of the articles:

This was on Wikipedia for over 6 months... :-/ TheGrappler 22:51, 1 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

I don't suspect this war will fade anytime soon considering that we are dealing with an aggressive POV warrior with a long history of wikistalking and policy violations.

YINever

edit

User:YINever is repeated reverting the article The Epoch Times and keeps removing warnings from his talk page even though he has been repeatedly warned for it. See User talk: YINever. User:YINever keeps deleting his talk page warning. User:YINever is currently in a revert war with User:PatCheng at the The Epoch Times article. He keeps reverting without attempting to reach consensus. User:YINever apparently is a new account and intent of deletion of his talk page warnings and revert war over The Epoch Times article. I suspect the other IP address reverting is his sockpuppet. RevolverOcelotX 01:32, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

See? I show up here, and there he is again with a boilerplate. YINever 01:34, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Blnguyen, see here [6] where YINever is removing his talk page warning MANY times even after he was warned about it. Should his removal of warnings on his talk page be reverted or not? Should he be blocked for removing his talk page warning? It seems YINever is a new account with an intent of edit warring without any attempt to reach consensus. RevolverOcelotX 01:39, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Since you were the administrator who blocked User:PatCheng, I would like to draw your attention to the likelihood that "RevolverOcelotX" is his sockpuppet, as I outlined here. Thank you for your time. --TJive 02:14, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
TJive, That is not true and a false accusation. User:PatCheng has been edit warring with User:YINever and many other editors over the article The Epoch Times way before I started editing at the article.
However I suspect that User:YINever has many sockpuppets if you look at the history of The Epoch Times article. Also look at User:YINever's contributions. User:YINever, he is a new user and a likely sockpuppet of User:Freereader, User:Web spy killer, and User:65.33.167.138. --RevolverOcelotX 02:24, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Yes, they can, but the vandalism warnings you issued were about content disputes, so are not valid. Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 06:19, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

No straight answer

edit

Since this user has a history of exacerbating and retaliating for everything I say anywhere, here is the deal. He knows me from another forum called "GameFAQs" where my primary account is "YINever" and he is known as "Fenriswolf". He is a staunch Maoist and Chinese nationalist who has followed me from arguments on that site pertaining to politics to here, where he shadows every contribution I make. He will likely cite several articles where at best there are content disputes, but in which he does not have any interest in achieving consensus or good content but merely summarily reverts my changes. As for my alleged insults, he will not be able to provide them. The "communist spy" stuff is his inference from my restoring comments he deleted on Talk:The Epoch Times from another user, and I never insulted anyone in his family and this apparently is in reference to a comment he has imagined on GameFAQs, not here. He made this charge the first time he vandalized my user page. [7] Incidentally, this is another demonstration that "PatCheng" has been known by other aliases/IPs, all used for the purpose of stalking me. --TJive 03:11, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

TJive, what evidence do you have that User:PatCheng is known on "GameFAQs" as "Fenriswolf". It seems from your user page, you have a long time dispute with this user, User:PatCheng and both of you are following each other. TJive, I also find it strange how you claim "my primary account is "YINever"" since theres the user here, User:YINever has been edit warring with User:PatCheng over at The Epoch Times article. Care to explain this? --RevolverOcelotX 03:26, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
If you aren't Fenriswolf, then where did I allegedly insult your grandfather, and why would this be a concern to an anonymous IP, then "PatCheng" who levels the same charge, months later? And why would it further be the concern of a "RevolverOcelotX"?
It is obvious you're using sockpuppets. So am I. "TJive" and "YINever" are the same people, on both sites. Neither of them have been used for policy violation, either in tandem or alone, so they are allowed, but you are using yours to evade 3RR, which you have been having trouble keeping to on your own, as demonstrated in the 3RR report. --TJive 03:31, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Who is this "Fenriswolf" you keep mentioning? Why do you keep equating User:PatCheng with this "Fenriswolf"? It is of no concern to me but you keep accusing PatCheng of "insulting your grandfather" by this supposedly "Fenriswolf"?
Since "TJive" and "YINever" are the same people, then why didn't you admitted this earlier? It is obvious the account User:YINever has been used along with other sockpuppets to violate the 3RR. I hope an administrator takes appropriate action on these violations. --RevolverOcelotX 04:00, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

I hope you see the bizarre situation I am placed in. He "isn't" Fenriswolf, but must persist with the same questioning now that PatCheng is blocked for 24 hours.

It's really strange; I've never had any online stalker before this, and nobody on Wikipedia has bothered to intrude so far. --TJive 04:04, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

TJive, why are you posting on TWO accounts? It is obvious to EVERYBODY that User:YINever is your sockpuppet of User:TJive. Your RFCU on User:PatCheng was in bad faith considering you had MANY sockpuppets of your own. You have MANY violations including sockpuppet, 3RRV, ect.
Can an administrator block the sockpuppet accounts of User:YINever, for 3RRV? --RevolverOcelotX 05:03, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
The sockpuppet will not be blocked unless they have been teaming up to edit-war in the same 24hrs to evade a block. If they are engaging in vandalism, they will be blocked anyway.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 05:06, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Here is evidence of where the suspected sockpuppet of User:YINever has teamed up to evade a block. [8] --RevolverOcelotX 05:25, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Do you have checkuser evidence that it is his IP?Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 05:29, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
No he doesn't. No one has responded to either request as of now, and meanwhile, he has gotten away with an explicit violation of his own, without the need for sockpuppets, for something he has already been blocked for! YINever 05:49, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
I do have evidence that at least one of those accounts listed at checkuser is a sockpuppet of User:YINever. He even admitted to this fact. User:YINever said ""TJive" and "YINever" are the same people, on both sites." See here: [9]. Here are some more explicit violation by User:YINever. --RevolverOcelotX 06:05, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

See, it's like dealing with a robot. Just makes reports, restates his premises, and never provides real evidence for anything. I provided links to four reverts within the same 24 hour period, he posts a retaliatory report where the reverts are not within the same period, and administrators just ignore both. YINever 06:09, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Cheers! Alphax did give me one back in February (User talk:Thebainer/Archive 3#Helen Mayo) so I might move them out together now, it would have looked a little odd on its own. Perhaps we should create an Australian barnstar? Maybe it's tall poppy syndrome.
As for the dispute on your talk page, you should advise them to take it somewhere else, someone else's talk page is not really the appropriate place for a dispute. You also might like to advise them that Wikipedia doesn't want personal disputes that started elsewhere and you'll block them all if they don't grow up. But that's kinda harsh, so you could try looking for someone who knows something about the subject area. --bainer (talk) 07:41, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

With respect, you were in error to say that there were mutual claims of stalking. I have not been bothering him; he has openly been following me. Now I fear that under "RevolverOcelotX" he is going to utilize a second account to evade 3RR on every single article. He has complete contempt for the rules of this site, which he has just made plain on that forum from which we met:

From: Fenriswolf | Posted: 6/5/2006 8:35:58 PM | Message Detail | #008 And do you know that I don't give a **** about looney wikipedia admins? I can obtain hundreds of IP addresses to revert your trash on wikipedia. [10]

RFCs are not effective. It will quickly come down to a matter of content disputes because there are half a dozen editors of this site which have clashed with me at political articles. This is a completely separate issue, but no one cares to see it for what it is. Is this sort of harassment not considered disruptive? --TJive 01:45, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Look at the following users: TJive (talk · contribs) YINever (talk · contribs) 72.65.77.79 (talk · contribs)

These people has undone my reverts within the time-period of my edits. They appear to be sockpuppets of the same intended to evade WP:3RR, and an user-check might be necessary. --PatCheng 01:56, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Wikiproject Beauty Pageants

edit

Hi Blnguyen... you're probably far too busy to be interested (or lack any interest whatever), but I just thought I'd let you know that WikiProject Beauty Pageants is now open for business :) (and thanks again for fixing that autoblock yesterday) -- PageantUpdater 02:16, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

I wouldn't hestitate to thwack a user in those circumstances. :) Rebecca 02:42, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

I replied to your question via e-mail. Prodego talk 03:49, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

One thing though, remember a screenshot with no confirmation that the screenshot is real, or that that user is the same as your editor, will likely be greeted with skepticism. Prodego talk 04:12, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

It'd depend on the circumstances, but I'd be inclined to block the account indefinitely, pending review at WP:ANI. If there were no issues raised there, then I'd just thwack the socks as socks of a banned user. Rebecca 05:50, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Unfortunately, no, I can't help you. You're right, it's named after a game, NationStates ([11]), but not something that has anything to do with GameFAQs unfortunately. Good luck in clearing the mess though. NSLE (T+C) at 04:35 UTC (2006-06-06)

Re: GameFAQs

Yep, I am a long-time member of the forum, although I haven't been very active in quite sometime. What can I help you out with? Just as a warning, I can't really commit to anything big until after 00:00 Wednesday as I have a busy day tomorrow (Tuesday). If it is something small, I can try to help sooner than that.--PS2pcGAMER (talk) 05:44, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi there. Sure. Allow me a moment to read over properly and I'll be back. Do you have the screenshot? I don't see it anywhere here. -- Longhair 07:54, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. I've now seen this [12]. As per Rebecca above, I'd lean towards an indefinite block pending a review. If the user account can be proven to be one and the same author of that forum post then there's nothing to be gained by having that attitude around. -- Longhair 08:09, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
I think if the ArbCom had solid evidence matching one identity to another, you'd get another reply entirely. -- Longhair 08:14, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
From where I'm sitting and seeing the situation, I wouldn't land a block yet, but then I'm outside of the problem. If it's advice you're after, I'd give it a little time to see if a course of advice develops at AN/I, giving you the backup of a little more community support. I'll keep an eye on things and assist where I can. - Longhair 08:18, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Sorry I was typing whilst on the phone. You have my 100% attention now (human multitasking still has bugs). I read the ArbCom comment back to front sorry during a distraction. Is Fenriswolf correct? I couldn't find a user with that username. Yes, I also recommened an indefinite block pending the outcome (if any) at AN/I. The editor is probably at a University or a workplace with a largish network, and would more than likely come undone if using IT resources for this purpose. I know they would if they were working for me. -- Longhair 08:33, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
It's clearer now. Thanks for the clarity update. On one hand, I take the threat seriously, and on the other I see it as bragging and talking up a situation to win with words. Perhaps before a block, keep an eye on the user, and the articles concerned. Blocking without hard evidence is something we generally don't like to do. If you can show me hard evidence the two users are the same, I'll block them myself. -- Longhair 08:41, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
I've got your evidence. I've unfortunately now got to pop out for appoximately 3 - 4 hours, but upon my return I'll look into it and act accordingly if nobody else has by then. Let's also see how the AN/I thread develops before we ultimately act. -- Longhair 08:57, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

This is rediculous. I indeed have several accounts at Gamefaqs, but most of them I have are newly created ones either closed or banned by Gamefaqs moderators. If you look at the details of this Fenriswolf person:

User Name Fenriswolf User ID 538693 Board User Level 34: Icon Awarded to users with at least 1000 Karma. No posting restrictions.

Fenris has been at Gamefaqs for nearly 4 years, whereas I have only stumbled across Gamefaqs in early 2005. I have seen Fenriswolf's posts in the Asia and Japan regional boards, and from the nature of them he seems to be a loyal, unquestioned admirer of the Chinese communist government. Myself however, is an Australian citizen. Although I do not oppose the Chinese government, I support eventual democracy in China, and can at least acknowledges its negative aspects. If I was indeed a mindless follower of the Chinese government, then why didn't I remove entire sections of articles such as Falun Gong and Epoch Times regarding negative aspects of the government? I reverts some of TJive's edits due to his choice of wording, such as his insistance in calling certain governments "regimes", and his tendency to edit without discussion, dismissing me as a stooge of the Chinese government on his user page.. If you look at my edit history, I do not delibrately start any vandalism or edit wars, and has contributed lots to science-fiction and videogame related articles. It's unfair to judge me as a vandal based TJive's hearsay, as I do not have such resources this Fenriswolf person claimed, other than my home computer. What concrete evidence do you have to block me indifinitely, other than TJive's hearsay?--PatCheng 13:07, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

My thoughts today? I'm wary, as other editors are, but lacking solid hard evidence matching the two editors, I'm not 100% convinced a block has been earned. That said, I'm not saying I don't belive you, just that the evidence isn't clear. -- Longhair 04:10, 7 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
I'm in support of your block now. I see your block in place, and fully support it on the grounds that a) he's either who you say he is, or b) the account has been comprised. In either event, the account should be indefinetely blocked. Sorry it wasn't a clear case of abuse with an easy answer, but the recent post to AN/I made things a lot clearer. -- Longhair 06:32, 7 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks
YellowMonkey/Archive7, thank you for participating in my RfA. It passed with an amazingly unopposed 77/0/1. Thanks for the support everybody! If you see me doing anything wrong, want to ask me something, or just want to yell in my general direction, leave me a note on my talk page. I promise to try and knock out Wikipedia's problems wherever I may find them!
