RfC against BB69

Hi. I thought you might like to know that Taxman and I are discussing a possible RfC against BB69 on Taxman's talk page. Cheers! BD2412 T 19:23, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

And for your convenience, here it is. I didn't go into terrible detail because I think it's obvious enough, and there's plenty more left in store if needed. - Taxman ^Talk 20:24, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I added my name to the list. DS1953 20:26, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add more information on the RFC later tonight. -- DS1953 20:36, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

BD2412's RFA

Although my RfA is not over yet, I figured that since so many people voted before it had been posted, I may as well start thanking people before it wraps up - and you were the worst of 'em, so you get thanked first. Thank you for kicking things off with a bang - I'll do my best as an admin to make the reality rise to the level of the dream. BD2412 T 04:34, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

User:UninvitedCompany has placed comments at WP:AN/I and at Wikipedia talk:Find-A-Grave famous people raising the question whether the links to findagrave.com be deleted from articles. You may want to participate in the discussion. -- DS1953 18:35, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for brining this to my attention. I was out of town for a few days and hadn't made it back through all the recent edits and might not have gotten to it as soon. Doc

Tedernst RFA

Thanks for your kind words about my RFA. I won't be self-nominating again, that's for sure. Having the patience to wait for someone else to nominate won't be easy for me, but I'll do it and keep working in the meantime. peace, Tedernst | talk 22:34, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yet Another RFA Thank You Note to clutter up your talk page...

DS1953:

Just wanted to drop you a note to say thanks for supporting me in my recent RFA. And your comments on my talk page are taken to heart. I have no plans of being bold with my newly acquired admin powers. I've only used them twice since attaining sysop status, and that was to revert obvious vandalism on Tutankhamun. I plan on doing a lot of reading over the next few days before I do anything more overt than that.

All the best.

I didn't make the first of the pair of comments, DavidGerard did. If my comment was inappropriate, his is too. -Splash^talk 00:54, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, well, it was a rather irate response by me and therefore not a particularly good one. I don't have a great deal of time for that kind of obvious posing and sometimes the best way to get rid of it is to just chop it off at the knees. Anyway, both statements appear to have gone now, and that's good. Pounding on siblings to rectify injustice is eminently acceptable, since they are usually wrong. -Splash^talk 03:02, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Thank you for the friendly welcome & the useful information. I'm learning as fast as I can & am grateful for help. I can see how Wikipedia could become very addictive!

I'm not very familiar with the deletion process. (I usually try to stay clear of those seemingly endless debates.)

Too strident, eh?

I just get very _very_ nervous when we start to decide to overturn a ruling based on things that resemble a quorum. What makes us suspect that we'd get wider participation if we listed it again? Unless we did notify every person who'd contributed to to article, and how are we going to balance out the bias that they'd present?

I'm actually not at all arguing with the idea of what you are saying, I'm thinking more of the pragmatics of the thing. Thanks for listening.

brenneman ^(t)^(c) 16:30, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whew. That's a lot of concerns in one diff!

As to AfD scaling, I've very nearly completed AFD:365DAYS and will be releasing that into the wild shortly. It's not all bad news, but it's not quite ready.
As to the massive watchlist, I'd like the developers to give us some more options. Even simply being able to filter by namespace (like with contributions) would be great, and a "whitelist" of contributors that I could choose to hide their last edits (as we do our own) would be spectacular.
Finally, your last point, which is really about civilty, which is really about respect. I've had my lapses, but they been um, fairly focused, shall we say? In the longer run, the problem with civility is actually the greatest one we face. If we don't come to terms with that, and with the examples that our ersatz leaders are providing, the other problems won't matter.

NLT

It's pretty well-established that continuing to make legal threats after having been very clearly warned to stop (note the difference between getting no warning at all) is what is done on Wikipedia. There's another case at WP:AN/I#Request review and possible block inre: WP:NLT, where another admin has done the same thing. There's nothing at all unusual in my action, and the making of legal threats is an excellent way for a user with a registered account to get it shot-on-sight, indeed, the making of such threats is a way some of our most-quickly removed editors have gone and it's usually a libel threat that does it. A case recently would be that of Jack Sarfatti, you'll have to dig through the archives of AN/I for that. A block on Wikipedia makes no difference to his ability to do whatever paperwork he needs to do since, for a start, his case is probably either against the Wikimedia Foundation or the editors of the article, both of whom he can get hold despite the block. There was nothing implied about his use of legal proceedings — he was being quite explicit about it. I do not think that a block "give[s] fodder" to people, or that we should be shy of looking after the free nature of the editing process on the basis of legal hypotheticals. Blocks (and even bans) aren't real remember: even the worst of the trolls could invisibly circumvent them just by playing nicely. -Splash^talk 08:50, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Daily Illlini

OK, put factual info about new offices back into the article, you are right. However, the impact of the new office upon the work habits/resource sharing etc. is speculation (until the new building is occupied) so I have left this out. Does this get things closer to what you think is appropriate? Sliggy 01:22, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Berghoff Image

The photograph of The Berghoff (restaurant) is a nice addition to the article. As a "native Chicagoan" (although living in Iowa for most of my adult life), that article first caught my interest when it was referenced in Did you know... on the Main Page a little while back. As a UIUC alum, it was also interesting to see the note about the Daily Illini immediately preceding this one :) and to take a quick look, for now, at the article. Here in Iowa, U of I always means Univ of Iowa - difficult to adjust to for an Illini :) Cheers, LiniShu 12:39, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Richard Josey

I see what you have done on the entry. I am not convinced of the importance just yet, but I think we can have a discussion on its talk page before making an AfD entry. Also, linking to the jpg of the obit in references would be helpful, as copied of the Feb 14, 1906 London Times are hard to come by :-) Thanks for the explanation.

The Federal Reserve System and the US Dollar

Dear DS1953:

Recalling the BB69 matter back in December, a somewhat interesting discourse (with, shall we say, some "similarities") has been developing with an editor named "Xode" at the discussion page Talk:United States Dollar at:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:United_States_dollar#Article_neutrality_and_factuality_dispute

under the heading for Factuality Dispute. I am in no way comparing Xode's conduct to the outrageous behavior of BB69. The similarity lies in part in the way certain editors seem to be on a "mission" to educate everyone on what they perceive as some great injustice and, I argue, want to use Wikipedia as a soapbox as part of that mission. When you see the materials Xode is promoting regarding the Federal Reserve and the banking system and compare them to the tax protester rhetoric, I think you'll know exactly what is going on. Your input on that Talk page would bring a lot to the table! Xode's User Talk page is interesting too. Yours, Famspear 22:25, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Otto Kerner

I just wanted to thank you for your work on the Otto Kerner disambiguation page. I was going to create it myself, but I was unexpectedly pulled away from the computer, and when I got a chance to look at it this morning, I was pleasantly surprised to see it was already created, and redirects to Otto Kerner, Jr. had already been done. Thank you very much!

Hi DS1953/Archive02, thanks for participating in my RfA discussion. Unfortunately, my fellow Wikipedians have decided at this time that I am not suitable to take on this additional responsibility, as the RfA failed with a result of 66/27/5 (71.0% support). If you voted in support of my request, thank you! If you decided to oppose me at this time, then I hope that if I do choose to reapply in the future, the effort I will make in the meantime to improve and expand my contributions to Wikipedia may persuade you to reconsider your position.

Embarras River/Embarrass River

This is really bizarre: Of all the things for two people to be starting articles on at the same time, we chose this. Anyway, see Embarras River for the article I just started. I used the GNIS spelling, which is also used in the atlases/gazetteers I have; I stumbled onto your new one while creating redirects. Shall we merge them? Cheers for your good taste in articles -- Malepheasant 05:35, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply; I'll merge your info now and make it a redirect. I'd figure it's often spelled with 2 esses at the end, since that's the correct spelling of the word, so I'll try to cover all the bases with regards to redirects. And hooray for us both for giving that poor little river in southern Illinois some attention! Malepheasant 06:37, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nikolay Yakovlevich Danilevsky

Please don't change another editor's choice of English; "earnt" is perfectly correct. You might prefer "earned" (it looks odd to me, though I'm aware that it's an acceptable alternative), but that sort of choice lies with the original writer. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 10:29, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dictionaries rarely give the full conjugations of verbs, so it's unsurprising that yours don't in this case.
I take it that you're American, from the dictionaries you cite; the article is in British English.
You did something, I asked you not to do it; it wasn't a broad generalised statement (in fact it wasn't a statement at all, but a request). If you felt lectured, I'm afraid that all I can say is that that wasn't the intention, and on rereading what I wrote I still don't see it. The fact is that Wikipedia policy is that the form of English used should be that of the first major editor of an article unless there's good reason to change it (usually because another form of English is more appropriate to the subject matter), and that's what I said. I don't know why you object to that. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 20:52, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking the time to vote in my RfA, which passed with a final vote of 54/2/1 despite my obvious inadequacy for the job. I'll do my level best to use the mop and bucket — or, as I said in my RfA, plunger — responsibly. Of course, in the best tradition of politicans everywhere, I've already broken a campaign promise (I blocked a vandal last night despite having said "I don't anticipate using the blocking tool very often"). Nevertheless, I'll try not to let the unbridled power corrupt me. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 19:52, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA

My RfA recently closed and it was a success, passing at 84-02-00. I would like to thank you for taking the time to weigh in and on your subsequent support. And I know it's quite cliche, but if you ever need any assistance and/or want another opinion on something, grab a Pepsi and don't hesitate to drop me a line on my talk page. Thanks again.

The Impressions

fixed it. Thanks for pointing that out. I would never have noticed it, as... well... I never read the main page. — Mar. 28, '06 [18:55] <freakofnur_xture |talk>

RfA Results and Thanks

DS1953/Archive02, thank you for supporting me in my recent RfA. Although it did not succeed as no consensus was declared (final: 65/29/7), I know that there is always an opportunity to request adminship again. If and when that day comes, I hope you will once again support me. If at any time I make any mistakes or if you would like to comment on my contributions to Wikipedia, you are more than welcome to do so. Regardless of your religious, cultural, and personal beliefs, I pray that whatever and whoever motivates you in life continues to guide you on the most righteous path.

Yet another sysop rolls off the conveyor belt, thanks you for your help, and excuses himself for a few days while he practices his new abilities. Back in action soon! -- Hoary 10:07, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Erebus555

Hello, I noticed the Erebus' edits at about the same time you did, but I went further. I blocked him for 24 hours and posted a detailed summary below your comment, so please revisit WP:AN/I. — Apr. 7, '06 [16:38] <freakofnur_xture |talk>
