[edit]

Please do not use talk pages such as Talk:Prescott Bush for general discussion of the topic. They are for discussion related to improving the article. They are not to be used as a forum or chat room. See here for more information. Thank you.--Veritas (talk) 15:50, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Prescott Bush support for Hitler and anti FDR is notable. This video shows the notability. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnAUQeHykXY
Instead of just using templates, I'll add that your continuous reversions are disruptive as they clearly violate WP:NOT#FORUM. Article talk pages are not a forum for posting videos or chatting on the general subject matter of the individual concerned in the article. Rather, article talk pages are for the discussion of article edits only. --Veritas (talk) 15:59, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am not chating about Prescott Bush but the video is by a journalist about Bush's connection to Hitler and FDR. Igor Berger (talk) 16:01, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You are using the forum to post a video, not to discuss article edits. WP:NOT#FORUM clearly states, "talk pages exist for the purpose of discussing how to improve articles; they are not mere general discussion pages about the subject of the article, nor are they a helpdesk for obtaining instructions or technical assistance." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Veritas (talk • contribs) 16:02, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
If you continue to use talk pages such as Talk:Prescott Bush for inappropriate discussions you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Veritas (talk) 16:05, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You do not own the article or are you a boss of WikiPedia. I reverted 3 times and you reverted 3 times. If you revert one more time you will be violating the WP:3RR Igor Berger (talk) 16:06, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Note that 3RR makes an exception for the reversion of obvious vandalism. I have already pointed out to you how your edits are obviously violating Wiki policy. Please cease now. --Veritas (talk) 16:09, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You do not own the article and I am not a vandal but an editor. You have violated 3RR and I am reporting you. Igor Berger (talk) 16:11, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You are also WP:Refactor your talk page for social engineering refactoring Igor Berger (talk) 16:51, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for You have been warned repeatedly to cease your disruptive style of editing. Your return to legitimate warnings is to put false and accusatory warnings on the pages of those editors so pointing you to correct and proper policy and guidelines as you did here. You have been previously warned that such disruptive editing is provocative and disruptive. I am blocking you for a period so that you cease these activities. Please cool off and spend some time reading the policies and guidelines rather than using pointy wiki-lawyering in your rebuttal comments when you return.. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below. --VS talk 22:44, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

This Block was not merited being that the situation was already resolved!

Decline reason:

It would not appear so, looking at the contribs history, your repeated attempts to use the talk page as a forum, and then your bogus NPA warning against Veritas does not show a good-faith attempt to work within the bounds of Wikipedia guidelines and policies. — Jayron32.talk.contribs 06:27, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Please see the following edits here, and here and perhaps ask these editors as to the truth of this matter. - With thanks --VS talk 09:00, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Igor, brotherman... the crocodile comment was innocuous. VS and I were trading derogatory remarks and he mentioned a crocodile. In vernacular, a croc simply refers to VS's Aussie lineage. Please be advised that having never come across your edits, there is no way I could have meant it in a direct reference to you, nor would I ever adhere to such a personal attack. I was simply engaging in personal banter with Steve, and as you can see, the word 'crocodile' came up. I can empathize with you feeling that it was directed towards you, but looking over all realms of possibility, I think you can see it surely did not refer to you. I apologize for any misconceptions. Unless you are indeed a crocodile, in which case, yeah, I can see why you are pissed. Later, gator. the_undertow talk 09:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Dude I have no bad blood with you. I actually seen your good work at ANI. Igor Berger (talk) 09:15, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • (copied from Jehochman's page) Please come to my talk page Igor - politely - leave Jehochman alone - stop telling stories and point me to exact diffs of these complaints. Then I can show you why you are a troll, why you were warned by other editors for trolling, why I never called YOU a crocodile (you were not even a part of the conversation) and why you are a destructive editor. I will also post this edit on your talk page and will not respond further anywhere else. So please come to my talk page when you are ready.--VS talk 09:16, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • VirtualSteve you are acting like an experienced editor like you are perfect and do not make mistakes. And as if you know everything without investigating the issues. How long have you been an WikiPedia admin? 7 months and 1 day? Igor Berger (talk) 09:23, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Igor, why don't we take it over to my zoo of a page. I'm sure we can find some resolve. I'll be happy to act as a neutral party and then you guys can carry on as positive contributors, and I can carry on with whatever I do here. the_undertow talk 09:26, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The undertow I rather do this at my cage being VS likes me so much..:) Igor Berger (talk) 09:30, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This issue between VirtualSteve and Igorberger has been resolved amiable[2] Igor Berger (talk) 10:31, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So I thought but instead of deescalating the matter VirtualSteve is thowing more gasoline on the fire This is what he said to me when I asked him for help, "VirtualSteve can you telll User:Veritas I am not Trolling you or him - Not a chance - Veritas was and is correct"Igor Berger (talk) 20:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit to Troll (internet)

[edit]

Howdy. I reverted your edit to this article because there is already a "see also" at the top of the article to the Wikipedia essay, Wikipedia:What is a troll?. There's no need for a section in that article which would have the same meaning. Thanks for your contribution. MKoltnow 04:49, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Igor, but...

[edit]

...it's just a garden variety vandal, just coming off a 6 month school block, and I fear soon to go back on one. No need to feed him, just ignore him and he'll go away. --barneca (talk) 19:00, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I try to help people because I know it can be hard on both ends. Hope he stops if not he will be blocked. Igor Berger (talk) 19:01, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

redirected talk pages.

[edit]

No . really. You're joking. Take it to ANI. Meanwhile, leave my talk page alone. Thanks. Ling.Nut (talk) 04:19, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is at ANI and this is not the way to do it. Please listen to your fellow WikiPedians on how to resolve the problem. Regards, Igor Berger (talk) 04:46, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Dude, my fellow wikipedians are full of stuff and nonsense. Ummm, don't let the whole title of admin go to your head, 'kay? Thanks! Ling.Nut (talk) 05:56, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, and sorry if I came out the wrong way to you, was just trying to fix the problem..:) formal apology— Preceding unsigned comment added by Igorberger (talk • contribs)

Veritas thank you for clarifying it. I never said I am an admin..:) Igor Berger (talk) 06:13, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No problem - Didn't mean to imply that you did. --Veritas (talk) 06:14, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

As a Wikipedia anti-spam patrolman I was adviced to write a user space eassy on the topic As a security analyst I feel this problem is very paramount at WikiPedia and needs to be addressed from all sides. Igor Berger (talk) 05:34, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article also appears to be a copyright infringement. Sorry, but I don't think it belongs on Wikipedia in its present state. Regards, WWGB (talk) 11:59, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I do not think the guy knows how to build a Wikipedia article. Leave him a message on his talk page to do it in his sandbox first and ask an advise before going main space. Igor Berger (talk) 12:01, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I saw you mention on another talk page you were going to ask someone to copyedit user:Igorberger/Social engineering (Internet), I've gone through and cleaned it up a bit, spelling only at the moment, if you'd like I can go through and fix any grammar problems as well, in about 5 hours when I am back online. If you don't want me to, just leave me a note on my talk page. Dureo (talk) 20:22, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, that would be great. The more people work on an article the better it is. We have no ownership, so please help out. Thank you, Igor Berger (talk) 01:57, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've gone through and done a somewhat major cleanup on it, read through it and make sure I haven't made any mistakes(I really know nothing on the subject.) and let me know if you want me to read over it again, I am going to be away for a bit proofreading a friends novel, but I will check every once in a while for new messages. Also I changed all instances of 'gain the system' to 'game the system' as I believe that is what you mean, I have never heard the first term used and googling it returned nothing related. if that is incorrect feel free to revert that. Dureo (talk) 05:11, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your help. And the essay needs to be understood by people who know nothing about the subject so it is good you did not know anything about it. Igor Berger (talk) 05:27, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I gave it a quick read and it is excelent work. I will move the essay to main space. Thank you, Igor Berger (talk) 05:32, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, per your comments on Durova's page its not working like a charm. Its actually exceedingly annoying waving TLAs in the face of experienced editors - are you unable to use proper words? I also suggest that you think carefully before accusing other editors of biting. Please explain how a user who was disrupting the project in 2006 is a newbie? There are no bite issues here but there are a lot of disruption issues and you are encouraging him to ignore the advice he has been given and continue to beat the dead donkey. I'm sure that your intentions are good but its generally a good idea to actually think through what other editors are meaning rather then issue knee-jerk TLAs at people. Spartaz Humbug! 07:20, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    The essay os for the accuser! It is irony and sarcasam and not meant to critisize an experienced editor, unless cretesizim is due! I also recommend to block the user for 24 hours that giving Wikipedia problems. Regards, Igor Berger (talk) 07:26, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Roadmap

[edit]

Hello Igor -- any chance you can share your roadmp for success as a Wikipedia editor? I'd be interested in your specific learnings, where you started, what surprised you and what you learned the most from? Thanks for any information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Raysecurity (talk • contribs) 06:56, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have to think about that, because it is not easy thing to talk about and what works for one editor may not work for another one. Also what worked in the past may not work in the future. Igor Berger (talk) 07:20, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I guess what really helps me be a good editor is my experience in software security field that I am applying on Wikipedia. Also my willingness to compromise and think of the whole project before thinking of myself or a particular article that I create. Igor Berger (talk) 07:36, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
