need help

Hi, as you know there is a war between me and a person who always changes the article Mister World 2010. This person modified it and put his name at the place of mister nigeria. Besides he also modified the french article Mister Monde 2010 to be famous. So i have to write the truth everytime. Can you protect these articles completely because they don't need modification and they are complete? Thanks for you help Despebobini (talk) 20:22, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Adelaida Cellars: revised text w/ added citations (second request)

Hello James, I revised the Adelaida Cellars article in many areas to establish more neutrality, and added several citations and footnotes per your direction. It appears that none of your editors have reviewed those changes as of this writing, so perhaps I didn't copy and paste some type of existing tag that would have alerted them. Please review and respond with your suggestions on how to garner approval. Thanks, Joe A. Gargiulo 21:31, 12 May 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joeg101 (talkcontribs)

Protection conflict

Looks like we ran into one on Mr. Bucket. You semi-protected it for three days, while I (a few seconds later) semi-protected it for a week. Feel free to restore your original three day semi-protection if you disagree with my one week semi-protection. Regards. — ξxplicit 07:55, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Nah 1 week is fine ;) I need to find a way to make twinkle do a small notice though.... either that or I'm going to start tagging manually. James (T C) 07:56, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
It makes me wonder why protection conflict isn't handled like blocking conflict; it refreshes the page back to the blocking options and shows the little pink box showing that the user has already been blocked by another admin. But what can you do. — ξxplicit 08:00, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

RE:Account creator flag

Not a problem, I've been pretty busy at university this academic year so it's been tough to find anything but simple reference desk postings! I might find some time over the summer to help out, at which point I'll probably come back to you. Cheers! Regards, --—Cyclonenim | Chat  18:32, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Re: ACC Access Removal

Thanks for the heads up. I've been inactive for about two years now...lol surprised it took this long for someone to notice. Back then access was taken off after 45 days of inactivity... Also, please remember to sign your posts with four tildes. - Jameson L. Tai talkguestbookcontribs 23:24, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Page protection

Good morning.... can you please protect the article Demographic history of Bačka until the conflict me + Wladthemlat vs Hobartimus + Outesticide is solved?

There is an old conflict that transfers from a page to another: [1] [2]

I will try to sum it all up :

  • The problem is about inserting in the article the sourced data sbout the censuses from 1715 and 1720 which present an overwhelming majority of the Serbs over Hungarians
  • The Hungarian users refuse to add these data to he article, claiming that they are not reliable (personal opinion unsupported by a source) and organized in september 2007 a vote about the reliability of these census data, even if the data are confirmed by academic sources User:Fcsaba (Hungarian editor), User:Hobartimus (Hungarian editor), UseR:PaxEquilibrium (Montenegro editor), User:Rjecina (Croatian editor) (so not even an user from Serbia, the country the area belongs to)
  • In present Me, User:Wladthemlat, User:PANONIAN contest this vote and the argument of the supportees of not inserting data from these censuses is that themselves consider History declared them unreliable (without showing a source, so it is just a personal POV)
  • In conclusion, does an opinion of a certain user from WP override an academic source? (MarekSS (talk) 06:13, 28 May 2010 (UTC))

Hi there Jamesofur! Could you possibly make this template, please? Thanks, Razorflame 15:21, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
