Afzal

Thank you for correcting my error, I've been working on so many Indian cricketers lately that writing Indian instead of Pakistani just came naturally.

All the best. Bobo. 06:11, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

CHEESE

Jevansen,

I noticed you altered Callum Ferguson's nickname from "Cheese" to "Walt Disney". I understand that some websites do indeed state that Callum's nickname is "Walt Disney", however I can assure you that friends and family alike know him as "Cheese". Please allow this change to remain in future.

Lance Collins

Thanks for the kind words. I've borrowed a copy of the book Bloodbath about the 1945 Grand Final so I'm trying to write the odd article about some of the players involved before I have to return it (in the next day or so). Next up: South Melbourne flanker Keith Smith. --Roisterer (talk) 11:22, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. Keep up the good work! Mjrogers50 (talk) 02:31, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

WCL Division Three

The matches won't have List A status but are classed as official internationals by the ICC. Division One (as an ODI tournament) and Two have List A status, as does the World Cup Qualifier. Andrew nixon (talk) 06:18, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

It may be nice to see the Afghans go through, and a really good story, but knowing how they behaved during Division 5 last year I'm a little ambivalent about it. After one day was washed out it was the Afghans who insisted that Singapore's earlier rained off match was replayed instead of all three of the group matches rained off on the washed out day. All other eleven teams wanted the more sensible option, which coincidentally would have disadvantaged Afghanistan and made it harder for them to qualify for Division Four.
They were also given a lot of advantages by the ICC, who were wise to the publicity that the Afghans brought to the WCL. Pretty much everyone who dealt with them at WCL5 (even before the incident mentioned above) considered them to be the scum of the earth. Andrew nixon (talk) 10:17, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Do you know if Robert Harvey and Brent Harvey the footballers are cousins? It was added to RH's page, but deleted recently by an IP without explanation. I am wondering if there are more things to be added to Harvey family. YellowMonkey (click here to vote for world cycling's #1 model!) 05:42, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

They're definitely not cousins. Robert did however have a brother who played briefly at St Kilda called Anthony who would warrant a mention as he would thus be Merv Harvey's grandson. Anthony also captained the Norwood Football Club to the 1997 SANFL premiership. If you want to add that information to the article some time I'll make a page for Anthony under Anthony Harvey (footballer). Cheers. Jevansen (talk) 06:09, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Yes, just a small piece of info would do please... Thanks, YellowMonkey (click here to vote for world cycling's #1 model!) 06:16, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Thomas Antill/Tom Wills

Thank you for correcting me with regard to this - I knew I remembered Tom Wills' name from somewhere, but I didn't realize it was that Tom Wills.

All the best. Bobo. 04:39, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Henry Lette

I'm certain I've written about the right guy here.

  • Henry Lette (this guy) (christened 10th August 1829, Curramore, Tasmania, Australia; died 15th August 1892, Launceston, Tasmania, Australia)
  • Henry Allison (this guy) (born July 14, 1828, Campbell Town, Tasmania; died May 12, 1881, Coupville Island)

If I've gone wrong somewhere, please correct me. Bobo. 09:26, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

On User talk:Bobo192, Jevansen said:
The article on Henry Lette had Henry Allison's infobox and the category said he was a Victorian cricketer, although he only played FC cricket with Tasmania. I've made the required changes but you might just want to make sure I've fixed it correctly. The infobox was already there before you made your contributions to the article so it seems that was User:Robert Fleming's error.


The perils of working on more than one article at once. I need some time to check 'em both over, but I'll get there. Thanks for pinging me back. Bobo. 09:48, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Gwilt and AFL player categories

I liked this! Seriously, my thoughts on CfD have been expressed (again) at WP:AWNB. Pure pedantry and stupidity. If you take this decision to DRV expect major hostility from the regs at CfD. If your argument is that the closing admin misread consensus, then DRV is the place to go; I would recommend asking for "overturn and relist". If you feel that there likely was consensus for the move, even if the consensus was ill-informed, perhaps just relisting yourself at CfD and putting the best argument you can may be a better option. Cheers, Mattinbgn\talk 03:44, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Northern Tasmanian Football Association (1886 - 1986) article

A big thanks for the article. It was on my to-do list to help get rid of red links on Laurie Nash but you have done a better job than I ever could have. I am on o/s holidays at the moment but when I get back to Oz I hope to polish the Nash barticle up to GA status. Cheers --Roisterer (talk) 12:52, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

AFL infobox

Hi there,

I've changed the 'birth place' to optional now too - thanks for pointing out the issue there. The asterix was removed too - thanks for catching that too. Cheers Boomtish (talk) 14:14, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

STJFL

It's notable because it is the first and only grand final result to be affected by the Sirengate ruling. The fact that it was juniors is irrelevant. I need to view the Mercury microfilm to get a page number because the story is no longer online. And that entails a visit to the State Library. The same applies to the Herald Sun. I'm putting it back and it stays. AFL-Cool 12:29, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

I will consider removal at this point vandalism. I have added a note on the article's talk page and the discussion should continue there. AFL-Cool 12:43, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Dates

Hi, I noticed that you linked a date or two when you created Tommy Downs. This practice is now deprecated. Please see WP:LINKING and WP:MOSNUM. I'm happy to respond to any inquiries you may have about the matter. Ohconfucius (talk) 08:47, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Dane Swan

Hi, I saw your "edit" on Dane Swan speaking about Greg Williams 53 touches. When Williams had 53 touches the quarters were still 25 min (now 20 min) but is still a record. Do you think we should put something like: Dane Swan has the record for most possession since the quarters were changed to 20 min, the rule being changed in 1994. The AFL record is 53 by Greg Williams when the quarters were at the time still 25 min.

I found out there also two higher records set by other players (apart from Greg Williams), the first player is Tony Shaw with 50 disposals in 1991 (quarters still 25 min) and Stephen Malaxos equalling Dane Swan with 48 in 1987. Here is the website I found the states on http://stats.rleague.com/afl/stats/playershi.html . --Bouklyloo (talk) 09:16, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Don't ask me why but that website is considered an unreliable source. Aaroncrick(Tassie Boy talk) 11:11, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Jevansen - please discuss before an edit of Dermott Brereton

I notice that you undid my change to the Dermott Brereton article. I expected to be queried on my claim, however from my perspective my family history is being innacurately portrayed and I'm entitled to fix it. I have a much greater personal stake in my family's history than your superficial familiarity merely through a celebrity relative and a wildly innacurate newspaper article. If you'd like to see a more accurate article on Dermott's family history - try this http://www.brereton.org/Dermott-Brereton.htm. You'll note that Dermott's grandfather is infact Joseph Brereton not "Dermott Brereton" as the Age article claims. I haven't got a user account at the moment, but it makes my comments no less valid. Sean de Faoite --124.176.149.245 (talk) 04:36, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Discussed at Talk:Dermott_Brereton. Jevansen (talk) 07:28, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
Sheesh. Now I remember why I never argue with IPs. Personal attacks, ignoring policy and what's the point of warning Mr 3 IPs so far. Given his knowledge of wikilawyering & sockpuppets, I wonder how many times he's been banned before? Oh, that's right I'm meant to AGF to all. Pity IPs don't seem to do the same.

Brother of Colin. Are you going to do an article on him soon. He later became an admin and team doctor IIRC YellowMonkey (cricket calendar poll!) paid editing=POV 03:47, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Hey there,

In regards to your query, I can't say I know the exact answer. But I wouldn't be surprised if the sourced article was referring to the AFL era, so perhaps we may have to change the statement. Boomtish (talk) 10:55, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

re: Sonny Bill Williams

Glad to help. If you run across that sort of problem again, the best source I've found is the Rugby League Project. And if you can't remember that, from now on you'll be able to get to RLP through Sonny Bill's infobox. Cheers, Rugbyhelp (talk) 14:36, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

re: terry wallace

The fact that i have stated about terry wallace's voice compared to those of toby quirk-meeks is nor vandalism but pure fact. Celeron13 (talk) 04:13, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Who is Toby Quirk and what makes him notable? Jevansen (talk) 05:10, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

To correct you, the name is Toby Quirk-meeks not Toby Quirk. Toby is notable as he and Terry Wallace share such similar-sounding vocal cords. You may not be familier with Toby Quirk-meeks but it's not to say that he is not notable.Celeron13 (talk) 02:24, 31 July 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Celeron13 (talkcontribs) 04:45, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I am going to post my previous information regarding Terry wallace if you dont reply in 48 hrs.ThankyouCeleron13 (talk) 02:24, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Nothing has changed this you last added this material. Mr Quirk-meeks is still not notable. Having similar sounding vocal cords to an AFL coach isn't a sufficient enough reason for inclusion in a wikipedia article. I think you know this. If you persist in adding this person's name in articles then I will have to choice but to treat you edits as vandalism. Cheers. Jevansen (talk) 05:54, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

I disagree with you and think its more then enough reason for inclusion. You would know this if you really paid attention to Terry Wallaces' life and career. I will treat your non-inclusion of this statement as pure ignorance and also as vandalism. You are a blight on Terry's life and integerity. I will have no choice but to take this further if this statement isnt taken seriously.Cheers.Celeron13 (talk) 03:13, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

About Tony Polinelli

I removed "He liked to smoke his pipe" as it was uncited and sounded like innuendo vandalism, but you seem to have the record of a positive contributor. Can yo re-add it, but with a citation please?

Cyril Rioli

Not a deliberate vandalisation, just a code error. I recall a Dennis Commetti article in the West several weeks ago where he referred to Cyril as "Delicious" Cyril Rioli, however I have not the time nor effort to go and find you a source. I find it amusing, and it's noteworthy, so therefore worth adding. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.44.247.208 (talk) 09:23, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of professional sportspeople convicted of crimes. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of professional sportspeople convicted of crimes (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:06, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, admin hasn't done much though except wack a warning template that they tweaked slightly on my talkpage because I nearly breached the 3RR.

Aaroncrick (talk) Review me! 10:10, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
No problem. Doesn't seem fair that you got a warning template for 'disruption' when you didn't even break the three revert rule. It appears that the admin didn't bother researching properly which is a shame. Jevansen (talk) 10:27, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
I removed it anyhow. Wasn't well researched. The admin used a warning template and made some minor tweaks. It still asked me to stop my disruption, but not too worry; bigger fish to fry. Aaroncrick (talk) Review me! 11:19, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Would you mind?

Could you check out the debate on the Northern Football League talk page? I could do with a 3O here. This IP isn't listening and I can't revert without violating WP:3RR. AFL-Cool 11:17, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Did you miss it?

Not sure if you read the WP:Aussie noticeboard, but Brian Cook's article was moved out of the main article space to the Wikipedia:Article Incubator/Brian Cook (football administrator) section, that I at least, didn't even knew existed. The aim I think is to use it as an "offwiki" temporary central storage as opposed to userfication. I thought you had every AFL/Cricket article on your watchlist! Shouldn't be too hard to get it back, (actually, I just did it - stuff their "evaluation" phase!) but I think we need to ensure it doesn't happen too much more - as you well know, we have a lot of sportsman articles which fall in the unreferenced BLP category.

I've seen his name more commonly written as Van Der Haar but the official AFL website lists it as Vander Haar so I've moved the page to that name. Wikipedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view so can you please stop adding comments like 'He was one of the truly great high marks" and was definitely "A legend of the game". If they're quotes from particular icons of the game or respected journalists then they can be added with a citation. Cheers. Jevansen (talk) 09:08, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

I saw you made an edit on the article Albums considered the greatest ever so I thought it'd interest you that it's being nominated for deletion. It'd be great if you'd give your two cent here since I'm the only one so far who wants the article to stay.

AIV report of IP:24.184.200.190

WP policies are such that we should not remove comments posted in good faith by a WP editor - the right procedure is to approach that editor asking them to reconsider. IP:24.184.200.190 had all rights to revert you there. It is unclear whether user:Chljon95 was improving or vandalizing - depends much on whether the subject of the article did or did not die. As to IP:24.184.200.190, they reverted some vandalism, with uncivil summaries; this deserves a note, but not a block. Materialscientist (talk) 00:30, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 04:27, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

AfD for List of Jews in Sports

I noticed that, though you are one of the major contributors to the list, the nom in the following deletion effort failed to notify you of the deletion discussion. Don't feel singled out -- he seems not to have provided the courtesy to anyone. So I'm picking up the slack for him. Discussion is ongoing here.--Epeefleche (talk) 05:09, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

List of Springboks

Hi

I think the edits you refer to are being made by someone that I approached for help with that page earlier. When I created the list I realised the magnitude of the job , but came accross someone that maintains his own website with a complete list of every Springbok ever.(http://www.genslin.us/bokke/sarugby.html) I think he updates the list from his database, after every springbok game. Unfortunately the disambiguation edits made since his previous update get lost then. Maybe you can discuss a more productive strategy with him at sarugbyfan@hotmail.com, since I am not so involved on wikipedia anymore. All the best! Sahmejil (talk) 08:50, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Maybe we can find a way of preserving the disambiguation edits (since they really are needed), with the "automatic" updates of the caps and points scored etc...? Since those updates will only be on recent caps after a game was played, we could perhaps merge the older, "corrected" half of it with the newer "updated" half? If you contact the guy doing the updates - could you let me know what the outcome is? Cheers! Sahmejil (talk) 09:22, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Biased view

You have threaten to report me and you don't even warm Eathb. I am very frastrated with this user and you warn me when I have done hours of work on wikipedia and have tried to keep Port Adelaide Football Club from being vandalised by Eathb. Why haven't you warned him? is this a biased view? He called me a retard and you warn me not him. GuineaPigWarrior 21:30 12 July, 2010.

121.215.41.16

Hello,
The person currently using the IP 121.215.41.16 (talk) is also being unconstructive and causing vandalism to The Critic Wikiquote page. This person has been doing this since May 2010. While this person has also used different IP’s, it is no doubt the same person (see history here). If you are able to investigate this, please do so. (Note: some IP's like 205.189.194.208, 72.49.54.115 and 71.162.63.116 are not this person). Thanks! --170.170.59.138 (talk) 00:19, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Hey, sorry for taking a while to respond. This character has been quite a serious pest around here for quite a while. Unfortunately as he always uses different IP addresses we can only revert the rubbish he inserts in articles as blocking isn't effective. I've reverted the Wikiquote article back to the version as it appeared on May 4. Wikiquote doesn't seem to have much policy on fighting vandalism or protecting pages so the best I can do is keep an eye on the article and revert any rubbish when I see it. Jevansen (talk) 00:18, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
Hello again,
First of all, thank you very much for your response. It looks like I'm not the only one who has noticed this person's behaviour. Unfortunately, he's back again on The Critic Wikiquote page, this time under 121.215.156.87 (talk). While I admit that some of the edits may be in good faith, they are really unconstructive. Plus, just in case I did not mention it before, he seems to purposely change a lot of wording and punctuation from other quotes. Please continue to monitor The Critic Wikiquote page. I also suggest reverting it back to the June 1 2010 version.
Thank you once again. I look forward to your reply. 170.170.59.138 (talk) 01:57, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
One last thing,
I have just made some more updates on The Critic Wikiquote page. They were made on July 25 2010 at 03:23. Should you have to revert again, please use this for the time being.
Thank you very much for your help. Cheers! 170.170.59.138 (talk) 03:24, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
Ok no problem. I'm amazed how active that page has been, think there would be about 300 edits for July alone! Jevansen (talk) 03:30, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Retirement

As of 18 August, 2010, I will leave forever. It seems I am being bullied on here. After all the work I have done with no credit at all. I will not put up with this no longer. No help from admins, just wanting to block me, why don't you "help" me instead of "picking" on me? I made my mide up basically after I was blocked last time, I almost left but didn't and came back for week and now I am being treated like a person who came out of jail. I'm only aloud to make an edit to page a day, if I am being treated that way it is pointless to return. After 1 year, 5 months, 27 days, "goodbye". Please leave a goodbye message on discussions page if you please. GuineaPigWarrior Forever!

I had to restore the Tim Lane AfD as it had not been listed for discussion. This explains the low participation rate. Tassedethe (talk) 08:40, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Restraint

Can you please leave alone. I don't want you to ever edit war with or discuss with me ever again. You are abusive and non civil as an admin has told you and afterwriter. Just find other articles and do not look up my history and being noisey. GuineaPigWarrior (talk) 01:00, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

No. Sincerely Jevansen (talk) 23:20, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Regarding IP Vandal

Hello Jevansen! We can still report abuse to an ISP, the requirement applies to the abusive user not a single IP address, so if you reason to believe there are at least 5 blocks for a single user, then please feel free to file at WP:ABUSE. Cheers!   Thorncrag  05:22, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Ok thanks. I'll file a report. Jevansen (talk) 05:24, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for alerting me to this. He's a long-term sockpuppeteer; yesterday he was User:Sterlingmerling; last week he was User:Stinkypinky69. He gets blocked pretty regularly. My guess is that he's User:Sorrywrongnumber, who's got a long term track record of edits like these, but he could also be a Howard Stern fan I've ticked off. Whoever he is, though, he's persistent (if inept). Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 03:47, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Hypocrisy

You undid my comment, I had to redo so please, stop being a hypocrite and I don't want to see you again, I believe you may have a fetish for me if I see you all the time trying to catch me out. I shouldn't have undid it you could've been a more civil about like another user explained it to me and I agreed with the user. So just leave me alone. GW

lol. Jevansen (talk) 22:11, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Haha. GW

BrianBeahr yet again

Howdy. It seems obvious to me that our friend Brian is at it yet again with another sockpuppet account with the user name of User:Pen00001. Same kind of editing obsessions and style problems as before. You can check out his recent history from his edits at St Kilda Football Club. Cheers, Afterwriting (talk) 16:22, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
