Speedy deletion nomination of Bianca Jade

[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Bianca Jade, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Your request for undeletion

[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that a response has been made at Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion regarding a submission you made. The thread is Bianca Jade. JohnCD (talk) 19:41, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Problem

[edit]

I came on to edit today and saw this message "hosting service, solely used inappropriately." I am unsure what I have done inappropriately. I did challenge the speedy deletion of an article with an administrator and was told that I was in the wrong forum. If this is the reason for the block then I am sorry. I want to be able to request a review of an article that was deleted but cannot do it as I keep getting the message that I am blocked. There is something stating that this can be resolved with a confirmed email address? Can you please explain what I need to do to get this done or what I need to do to get unblocked? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HappyTwoBEE (talk • contribs) 22:02, 17 September 2012‎

You are not currently blocked. I am unfamiliar with the error message you received. At what point did you receive it? Have you tried to edit anything else at Wikipedia besides this page? You might try, for example, editing your sandbox.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:25, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I was able to edit today so I am not sure what was going on. Thank you for whatever you did and sorry for the long statement that I left as I kind of freaked out when I saw it. --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 14:32, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

HappyTwoBEE (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I am now again unable to edit. It states that I am blocked because of an open proxy? My entire computer goes through proxy for privacy reasons so I suspect that is the issue with the previous block? I also see a comment on the undeletion report that I filed earlier today here [1]. It states that I am a paid editor which is false. I have no idea who those people are and unfortunately the same person who left the comment appears to be the same person who blocked me. So.....I first do not appreciate being accused of being someone's little "puppet" and I would appreciate if I can be unblocked so that I can continue to defend my request to undelete the article. This has seemed to be an uphill battle just to get one article uploaded to Wikipedia. I WELCOME scrutiny on the article as that is all I have been asking for since it was speedy deleted. Unfortunately, there seems to be some who do not want to see the article as they are accusing me and blocking me. I would also appreciate being removed from that page with the other editors as I am not associated with them (of course I cannot defend myself as I can only edit my sandbox - what a crappy way to try to keep an article out of Wikipedia). HappyTwoBEE (talk) 15:37, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Procedural decline. This account is not directly blocked. If you are still unable to edit, it would help us if you posted the message you are receiving, IP address and all, in your next unblock request so we can investigate further. Note that not all proxies are equal. Secure proxies are fine, open proxies and TOR nodes aren't permitted. ~Amatulić (talk) 17:59, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

  • This account is not directly blocked, there is nothing in its block log, and I do not see an autoblock on it. Try to edit the WP:Sandbox. If you can, you are not blocked. If you cannot, please copy below here the exact message you get. JohnCD (talk) 16:37, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
STILL BLOCKED!!!! Here is the message "Editing from 208.76.52.0/22 has been blocked (disabled) by Amalthea for the following reason(s): hosting service, solely used inappropriately." This is the same person who is accusing me of being a paid editor and being part of a group in a "puppet" investigation. The admin also left a message on the page of my undeletion request which has tarnished any chance of me having the article undeleted (as the comment was uncalled for if they are not going to chime in with an opinion). I not only request, but DEMAND that you investigate me and then remove my name from that investigation as I am not associated with anyone. I am sorry if this admin does not like the subject of the article (the person being written about) or has an issue with me personally (I have done nothing to this admin to deserve what they are doing to me). Now I am blocked, still blocked, and cannot defend myself. If you could leave a message on those pages I would appreciate it as this admin is out to get me for some reason (is there a policy against that? If so, where do I report it). I want my name CLEARED from the accusations and I want something done about them tarnishing my request for undeletion. It is kind of sad that this person can make the accusation and be the same one to block me. That is crazy policy!!!!!--HappyTwoBEE (talk) 19:04, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oh Yeah, what did I do that was so inappropriate? Standing up for an article that I created???--HappyTwoBEE (talk) 19:04, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • OK I see now. However, I use a proxy for anonymous purposes for all web traffic. In addition, how did someone check my IP as my IP is anonymous if I create an account (at least according to your privacy policy), correct? That is why I created an account. So why was my IP checked? Now, you are the admin who blocked me and made the comment on the undeletion request. Why would you do something that is completely not true? Check me, check the other names that you list, check whatever you want, but I AM NOT A PAID EDITOR and I am NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE PEOPLE! I still don't understand how you get free reign of Wikipedia to do whatever you want whenever you want. --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 19:34, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what question that answered as I asked quite a few. If you are implying that since he is a checkuser that he has the right to violate the privacy policy off a "hunch", then I disagree with you. --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 17:27, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Seeing that HappyTwoBEE used the word "check" five times above I assume they are quite familiar what CheckUser is, in fact.
      HappyTwoBEE, my actions were done in compliance with the privacy policy. If you disagree, feel free to file a complaint per WP:AUSC#Procedure.
      Amalthea 21:36, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I will do so once I am done typing out long messages and replies thanks to your accusation against me. Also, what good is going through another Wikipedia policy when all that is going to happen is more people like you are going to continue to accuse and insult me. This is actually going too far and you should be ashamed of what you did. You are not just an editor on Wikipedia.....it looks like people have trusted you to be in the position that you are in but you abused it because of not liking the article that I wrote? This still makes no sense to me. I guess I need to edit Wikipedia for a couple of years, every day of my life, give up spending time with my family, give up friends, become someone with authority such as yourself, and then I can post articles to Wikipedia? Oh, yeah, I know your typical response is going to be I can edit any time as long as the topic is notable. Well, I believe it is notable, but I will never get a fair consensus now thanks to you. Good job! --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 17:27, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I did use the word check and thank you for counting. I read the term from looking at the investigation you have brought me into. Also, I apologize for using such a common English word. Can you tell me if there are any other common English word that I might know that would make me an expert on Wikipedia? I am probably the master of Wikipedia and don't even know it. I have no idea what your problem is, but STOP ATTACKING ME AND LEAVE ME ALONE!!! I know what a checkuser is now and cannot believe that you are allowed to have as much power as you do as you seem to be so quick to abuse it.--HappyTwoBEE (talk) 17:27, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

HappyTwoBEE, I recommend you don't get hung up on Amalthea simply stating a suspicion. While it may have been inappropriate, that suspicion is not the reason your IP address is blocked. It is blocked because it's an open proxy.

There is a difference between stating a suspicion and making a strong accusation. If there is an issue with my editing, then it should have stayed on my talk page or on the investigation page. Instead, the undeletion reqeust that I have made is now tainted because of it. Also, I do not understand why my name is still on the investigation list. If I was "checked", then you know that I am not associated with ANY OF THOSE PEOPLE!

Unfortunately, Wikipedia's standard practice is to block all open proxies. We understand this may cause a problem for, say, someone in China who would prefer the Chinese government not trace edits he may want to make to articles that the Chinese government considers controversial. If such is the case with you, we can exempt registered accounts from IP address blocks, but we would need some sort of verification that you are located in such a country (such as an email to me or Amalthea showing your originating IP address in the headers). Otherwise, we generally reserve that exemption for editors who have a good, established editing history. If you don't qualify for either situation, your only other way to edit Wikipedia is to stop editing through an open proxy. ~Amatulić (talk) 21:46, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I understand the policy now on open proxys. However, you could have left it at that. I am not from China, I am from the United States. Regardless of the reason why I want to remain anonymous, the reason is MINE. I am not sure how your China analogy would make me feel comfortable with editing from my own IP. In fact, it looks like I made the right decision to edit from a proxy as my fears were confirmed when Amalthea used their power to "check" me. So how is disclosing my actual IP address in an email to you going to make a different with me using an open proxy? Sounds like it will be blocked for being an open proxy so disclosing my IP is going to make no difference. --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 17:27, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
HappyTwoBEE, if you want to make any further comments at the DRV, write them below here (with a heading to make clear that's what they are) and I will copy them across. JohnCD (talk) 23:41, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I have added my email address to my account and will email them to you if that is alright.--HappyTwoBEE (talk) 17:27, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]


JohnCD - Thank you for copying the information over the discussion. Not happy with the result but I appreciate what you did. I still see that I am listed as being investigated for having numerous accounts which I am not happy with as the accusation is false. I would like to comment on that page and also resume editing. Previously you stated that I can disclose my IP in order to edit from a proxy. Who would I disclose this to? Is there the ability to allow me to edit from that proxy once I disclose my IP? How can I know that my IP will only be disclosed to the person I provide it to as I do not want it spread around the internet or on Wikipedia? Finally, will disclosing my IP allow you to confirm that I do not have multiple accounts and my name then be removed from the investigation? --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 15:35, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see where JohnCD said that. *I* said that you could disclose your IP address to an admin to prove that you're located where it would be personally hazardous to you for controversial edits to be traced to you (writing about Falun Gong from China might put you in grave personal danger from the government, for example). In that case we could exempt your user account from IP address blocks, which would allow you to edit through a proxy.
However, you have already stated that you are in the United States, so disclosing your IP address to me or anyone else would not help you.
We could also exempt you once you have established a good history of contributions, say, several hundred positive contributions, which would prove you can be trusted with such an exemption. I do know of some editors here who have that exemption so they can bypass IP blocks. As of this message, you have only 66 edits, and none to main article space. So, although I'd like to extend trust to a new editor, please understand that I (or any other admin) don't really have a justification for exempting such a new account from an IP block.
Bottom line, you will not be able to edit through an open proxy. An alternative is to edit without a proxy from a different location than your usual place, such as a public WiFi spot (library, coffee shop, etc.) which would have a different IP address. ~Amatulić (talk) 23:26, 28 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your email

[edit]

Hi, thanks for your email. Thank you for stating your intent to be a constructive contributor. I might suggest that editing without a proxy might be feasible in your case if you restricted your activity to appropriate times of day.

I'm replying here because my reply may benefit others who may happen across this page.

I just reviewed Wikipedia:IP block exemption again, and it seems I may have misled you somewhat in my previous comment. Please accept my apology for that. Since it's a Wikipedia procedural policy, I can't really circumvent it. Let me explain.

After you have established yourself as a trusted contributor, it isn't a problem to grant you an IP block exemption for the purpose of bypassing range blocks that have nothing to do with you. If you find yourself caught in such a block due to someone else vandalizing from the same IP range, you'd simply post an unblock request to the talk page and wait for an administrator to respond. If you've demonstrated that you're a trusted editor, the admin can grant you an IP block exemption.

However, the exemption that you want, to allow you to edit through anonymizing proxies is another matter. See specifically this section: Wikipedia:IP block exemption#Used for anonymous proxy editing. Granting this exemption requires establishing a level of trust equivalent to an administrator. Also an admin like me couldn't simply grant an exemption in response to an unblock request. Instead, you'd need to submit your unblock request through the Unblock Ticket Request System (and don't submit it through an anonymizer either).

Hope you can work it out. ~Amatulić (talk) 16:22, 2 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. You know my concern which is why I sent it to you in a private email. My worry is that my privacy will be compromised (which it already was earlier). Regardless, you know my current IP now. It is what it is.....so I will just continue to edit so that you can see that I am not vandalizing Wikipedia. Also, I would appreciate my name being removed from the above investigation. It looks like there are two people on the investigation that are the ones involved as they state "pretty sure about this one" under each of them. If that's the case, give them hell, but leave me out of it as I am not someone else and not associated with anyone but myself. --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 18:18, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually I don't know your IP address. It doesn't show up when you send email through the Wikipedia email function. You'd have to reply to the email I sent you for me to know your IP address. I couldn't do anything with it even if I knew it, because as I said earlier, the only reason we'd need to know it is to confirm that you're in a country that represses free speech. Because you already confirmed you're in the US, your IP address location wouldn't be a reason to grant a block exemption. I hope my suggestions in email might be helpful.
I appreciate the advice that you gave and also appreciate you understanding my reasons for why I wanted to use a proxy. However, from my message below, I am frustrated as hell that I have to follow rules to a "T" but others can bend them to their own liking. I am not from a country that represses free speech; however, I am on a website that although they say is welcome to those who follow the rules, seems to want to repress everything that I do. --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 15:00, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I also cannot locate the Bianca Jade article that should be in a subbox of mine. I am assuming that someone deleted it. I would like it returned as I spent a lot of time on that article and will gladly bring it back for review when there are references that appease everyone on Wikipedia. If the article is salted, then there should be no concern that I would move it from a subpage back into the article directory.
According to what I can see, you moved your sandbox to Bianca Jade (therefore that sandbox no longer exists because it was moved) and then the article was deleted as a result of a WP:DRV. If you want, I can restore the article to your user space. ~Amatulić (talk) 02:23, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hope you're not too offended, but as an administrator, you should take the time to look a little further. It was restored here (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:HappyTwoBEE/sandbox/BJ3&action=edit&redlink=1) and you can see that it was deleted. I would appreciate it being restored and also that people stay out of my sandbox pages unless I request their deletion. I have looked at the policy on userpage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:User_pages), and once again it seems like there are administrators who are out of control and interpreting policy in the way that benefits them. The result was deletion and salt to prevent re-creation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2012_September_19). There is nothing that gives anyone the right to delete the sandbox as there was no discussion or consensus to delete the subpage and if there was, it is in the wrong forum for discussion of deleting a user page (I had to follow the rules to take things to the right forum so should administrators). Please restore the page in a location in my user space that I can access. This is again just a sign of how new editors are not welcomed. Yes, I did do some research and came across this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Please_do_not_bite_the_newcomers). I guess it is OK to bite when you want (or in this case, have numerous people take a chunk out of my ass to get their point across - which is also against policy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Do_not_disrupt_Wikipedia_to_illustrate_a_point). --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 15:00, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Finally, no one has yet to address my numerous requests to have my name removed from the investigation. Is this a way to put a mark on me so that I can further be denied editing? Do I need to close this account and open a different one from scratch so that I won't have a mark on my head? I am confused and do not understand why everyone here wants to treat me like shit and then goes off in their own little world to act as if nothing is going on. I want to either be found responsible for what I am being accused of or have my name removed from the list!!! Or do I have to be submissive and kiss everyone's ass so that they feel superior enough to treat me fairly? So far, Wikipedia has shown to be nothing but a place where you are not welcome unless you are with the "in crowd" of editors and admins who feel that they own the place. --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 15:00, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Finally, Finally, Finally......I hear people complaining about Bianca Jade and that I am "spamming" and getting paid to create the article, but no one has said anything about the articles that I have created since then. Am I spamming with those articles or getting paid? There seems to be editors out their with crystal balls that tell them what my actions are so please advise if the recent edits and article creations are worth deleting or if it is acceptable to continue editing. RIDICULOUS! --HappyTwoBEE (talk) 15:04, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked for sockpuppetry

[edit]

Proposed deletion of Ryan Christian

[edit]

Hello, HappyTwoBEE. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Ryan Christian, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Ryan Christian to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Thanks, Mdy66 (talk) 01:19, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
