re SPI

Thanks for that assist! You might want to take a renewed interest at talk:NEMA connector as well. Jeh (talk) 06:51, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Don't thank me. I'm only assisting to curb the shitty behaviour of someone else, not to help you, and only because their pattern of behaviour is clearer now. You have to be joking to think I'd want to contribute to Talk:NEMA connector ever again, after you were an obstinate prick toward me nine months ago on that very same page. It's precisely because of shitty behaviour like that that I have absolutely no desire to contribute whatsoever to Wikipedia anymore. I do find it amusing that the arguments you've been making on Talk:NEMA connector were the exact same that I made nine months ago, that you and others threw right back in my face. I have assisted you in this SPI, but I have less than zero interest in being your pal going forward. You need to re-evaluate your own behaviour. In closing I've got six words for you, Jeh: fuck you, I told you so. CplDHicks2 (talk) 16:55, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

All I said back then was... oh, never mind. I was wrong then, and I apologize. Jeh (talk) 20:08, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Am I the only one seeing a pattern?

@Jeh:, @Wtshymanski:, @Gah4:; please humour me and review this w.r.t. JimmiCheddar & FF-UK: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SSHamilton/Archive

Am I the only one seeing a pattern here? See FF-UK vs. Mautby vs. Deucharman's contributions, JimmiCheddar vs. Mautby vs. Deucharman's contributions, this & this, this entire exchange, this vs. this... Does this not seem like the work of one very persistent, argumentative editor? CplDHicks2 (talk) 22:21, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is the first time I have even thought about a sock puppet investigation. I have been in various disagreements with FF-UK over the years on these pages. As I (recently) understand, there are administrators that can track IP addresses, but then again, it is easy to fake those. If you have an account on a machine somewhere far away, just log in and submit from there. It might be interesting to look at the distribution of edit times, which could depend on time zone, or other life considerations. Ask me a specific question, and I will try to answer it. Gah4 (talk) 22:46, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@CplDHicks2: I just saw this. I'm at work atm but I'll try look at this in detail over the next couple of days. I certainly have noticed the Mautby/Deucharman similarities. btw, Cpl, there's something I would like to send to you by email - if you open that up (it's under preferences, user profile tab, "allow wikipedia users to email me") for a short time, I promise to not abuse it. Or you could email me through the WP interface. Jeh (talk) 22:58, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Go for it. CplDHicks2 (talk) 01:50, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

IIHF

The player still has to be registred to the IIHF, which has not been done so far. That's all i said, as there are more articles saying players are in some rosters when they are actually aren't because they got cut or whatever. See, isn't it nice to write to someone without calling him a donkey or so...? Kante4 (talk) 11:49, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You were overzealously relying on a single source and unnecessarily deleting content from the article. Had you waited a few days your precious IIHF registrations would have been updated accordingly. As far as I could tell you were never going to put Mangiapane's name back in the article, which was quite simply erroneous in face of the source that was already presented that said he was on the team. And now it looks ridiculous that you deleted him from the roster in the first place: he's already sixth in scoring after a scant three games played, and arguably the best player in the entire tournament. Deleting Mangiapane's name from the Canadian roster was asinine, and I'm not going to apologize for saying so.

Ultimately I'm happy you're going back and reversing your own edits—for example how you erased Dominik Bittner, John Peterka, Daniel Fischbuch and Andreas Eder from the German roster, and put them back only four days later—but you were ultimately wasting your time in the first place. Hopefully you see that now. I had no reason to believe you would go back and fix your mistakes. CplDHicks2 (talk) 22:25, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I do add players when they are officially registred, which happens when the IIHF updates their pdf document for the specific roster. Kante4 (talk) 09:27, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, well, well. How does it feel in retrospect to have deleted the tournament's Most Valuable Player from that article? I bet you still don't understand why your revert was unnecessary, and don't appreciate just how foolish you look now. CplDHicks2 (talk) 23:36, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
