Possible edit-war in progress

I'm working on and trimming out the not-needed parts of the Boston Celtics article according to the FA checklist, but I am constantly reverted by User:8-Hype. He has been blocked for edit warring twice and both me and MFC have had to revert his edits that reverted mine. Please help us with the situation. Diffs: 1, 2, 3, 4 STORMTRACKER 94 Go Sox! 18:48, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Acutally, this one. Still, almost the same thing. STORMTRACKER 94 Go Sox! 18:56, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
This is not an edit-war. I have kept the link to the history article in my latest edit, but the other things are legit edits. ● 8-Hype (talk|contributions) 19:00, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
It looks like 8-hype just broke the 3 revert rule on Boston Celtics. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Milk's Favorite Cookie (talk • contribs) 19:57, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

RFA

Do you think it's too early for me to try RFA again? The main opposwe reason was "too frequent RFAs", but I can address that. My last one was about two months ago, and I think I could pass this time. If I did, would you like to co-nom? STORMTRACKER 94 Go Sox! —Preceding comment was added at 19:45, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

I guess that's your opinion. If you decide to, I would like to co-nom.   jj137 (talk) 23:39, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

A few questions

Hi, sorry to bother you, but I have a few questions...

  1. Is the 3-month, 3000 edit thing a hard-fast rule for RfA's? Or is it just recommended?
  2. Is it OK if I give another responsible editor huggle?
  3. Do you have to manually change the thing on your userpage that says you are online?

Thanks for your time. J.delanoygabsadds 20:09, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

nevermind #1, I just saw someone else asked nearly the same thing. J.delanoygabsadds 20:11, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Eric Edmeades

Hello. I currently work for Eric Edmeades -- cleaning up online content for his office. I have been away for a few weeks but arrived back to find that you have deleted Wikipedia page for Eric. It seems a notice of pending deletion was posted, no one objected, and now it is gone.

I am not really familiar with Wikipedia policies but when Eric noticed that there was a Wiki page put up he asked me to keep it accurate and clean -- and so I have done for several months.

When an admin note appeared that requested better 'wikification' of the site, I looked it up and followed the instructions. Each time a moderated asked for improvements or changes, I have done what they have asked.

Some months ago someone put a notability challenge on that site and it was contested by someone else before I could respond, and the notice was taken down. (Eric's notability is well established, he is an international speaker with significant followings in South Africa, England, Singapore, New Zealand and the United States. He establishes schools in Tanzania and spends 250+ days of the year speaking to social entrepreneurs around the world. Various 'famous' quotes sites have been quoting him for over a decade.

Can you help me with the grounds on which this page was taken down? I want to get some answers before I speak to Eric. When his Wiki article first appeared he suggested having it taken down because we could not control the content and I convinced him the a fair and impartial collaborative article/resource about him was a good idea. We have now spent quite a lot of effort making sure that the information you had on Eric (wherever it came from) was accurate and fair. The site was never used for sales/promotion but simply impartial information.

Nthabi (at) EricEdmeades.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.146.6.224 (talk) 09:31, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry - additionally from the fact that the Prod was left uncontested for five days (the reason of deletion), it seems there was a conflict of interest, so if a biography is to be written on him, it would have to be by someone unrelated to him, not working for him or "close" to him in any way. Sorry.   jj137 (talk) 20:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC)


Okay, I am now more confused:

1) Why was the PROD put there in the first place and;

2) Conflict of interest -- I did not write or post the article. I just took it upon myself to make sure that it was accurate and Wikified. When I first saw it it was a badly written collection of 'rumours' about Eric rather than a factual article. As far as I can tell, the article was edited and contributed by a number of different people -- some helpful, others not so much.

You can leave it off if you like -- clearly -- I am just frustrated because (a) I have kept any eye on the site for the last few months to keep the content clear and well presented and (b) I have created links from all our sites to the Wikipage that I will now need to delete.

What has to happen for (a) the article to re-appear or (b) for one to appear that fits within your guidelines. I do not want to find another bad quality version on Wiki again.

Cheers, Nthabi

I see you didn't actually write it - but WP:COI still includes actively editing the article (obviously you are allowed to clean up inaccuracies though!). The Prod was tagged because notability was not met. For writing an article, see this page. Regards,   jj137 (talk) 21:37, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hi, and welcome to the Dallas Mavericks task force! We are a group of (mainly) Mavericks fans who help to improve coverage related to the Dallas Mavericks on Wikipedia.

Looking for somewhere to start? Here is a few suggestions.

  • You can check out topics on the main page.
  • You can add {{WikiProject NBA|Mavericks-task-force=yes}} to talk pages of Dallas Mavericks-related articles, and assess them as well.
  • Check out the to do list for the task force, and opt to try and complete some of those tasks.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or would like to talk about the project in general, feel free to leave a message on the talk page.

Thanks for joining,

Secrets of Droon

Recently you nominated my book review of "Into the Land of the Lost" for deletion.

The reasons were: "There is no evidence that the book is notable, and even if it were this is a personal review or original research providing no sources."

That sounds pretty reasonable, so my question is: Are any book reviews proper content for Wikipedia?

For example, "City in the Clouds", also in the "Secrets of Droon" series, remains a valid item in Wikipedia. Is it written differently? Or has it simply not yet been noticed by someone who wants to nominate it for deletion?

I don't login to Wikipedia often, but I'm young and learning and appreciate your guidance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LoganTummers (talk • contribs) 03:41, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I did not actually nominate it for deletion (or decide the reasoning); I simply go through all of the old Prodded articles and delete them. Either way, after looking at the deleted article, it was a book review, which we don't have here (we're trying to build a neutral encyclopedia). Regards,   jj137 (talk) 21:23, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your help with making the online/offline symbol. I was really wondering how to create one. If I have a different question, I'll ask. Oh! Here's one. Would you give me the BoSox Banner if I created 4 articles of 4 red sox baseball players? I already created 2. Their names are Hunter Jones and Justin Masterson (Created by me). I will create Tony Granadillo and Gil Velazquez right now. If it turns blue, that means I just created it. Thanks.--RyRy5 (talk) 23:43, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for my First Barnstar! I will continue my work for the Red Sox WikiProject. I have just finished the last article not created on the Red Sox roster which was Gil Velazquez. Until next year though, when the new rookies come in. Please send me a message anytime you like. Look Below and see that there is an article for all the players of the Red Sox roster. If it takes to much room in your talk page, you can delete it after looking at it. I put it here just so you can see all the atricles of the Red Sox roster.

I am thankful and appreciative that you feel that I am worthy of the trust the community requires of its bureaucrats, and I hope to continue to behave in a way that maintains your trust in me and my actions. I have heard the community's voice that they require more of a presence at RfA's of prospective bureaucrats, and I will do my best over the near future to demonstrate such a presence and allow the community to see my philosophy and practices in action. I hope I can continue to count on your support when I decide to once again undergo an RfB.

I lied. There is actually 10000+. Remove the "/" in "Skip". And change "namespace" to talk. There are no images in that list. At this rate if you were to start deleting, you would have to take a computer with you to your grave. (Ok, maybe not that long.... but) And the highest limit is 10000. So, there is well over 10000 - Milk's Favorite Cookie 01:14, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Go to the talk page of WikiProject Boston Red Sox. You should see the heading My Opinion. Please answer the question on my talk page. PS. It may help other people keep tract of what is going on.--RyRy5 (talk) 20:46, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

OK, I'll go ahead and add it. I would like to see how it works out. By the way, you never answered the question I left above. The heading that you didn't answer is called Barnstar creation.--RyRy5 (talk) 20:57, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

New Section

Plaese visit the new Achievments section in the WikiProject Boston Red Sox page that has been accepted to add.(I will tell all members about this).--RyRy5 (talk) 21:15, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Bot

Shouldn't this be fully protected? I mean we can have a vandal shut it off... I suggest you fully protect it. Also, can you please delete all this, then delete the page as well. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 22:11, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. The bot isn't? Never mind, then. Nice to see HP back :) - Milk's Favorite Cookie 23:12, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Please delete this (it falls under R2) I tagged it. And can you please finish Rickey Henderson? - Milk's Favorite Cookie 23:51, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Lol. (Take your time)100 years later... Guess someone was ahead in the deletion process (above) again :( - Milk's Favorite Cookie 01:02, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, true. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 01:06, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
The list is increasing :) - Milk's Favorite Cookie 03:00, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Well yeah. You designed the basic template remember? :) We should have much more members by tomorrow :) - Milk's Favorite Cookie 03:06, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Check out the Heuschrecke 10 FAC. Yeah, I invited a couple from {{User Massachusetts}}, and people from here. Usually people who are sox fans are celtics fans. And usually people who live in MA, know about sports. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 03:10, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Join WikiProject Arkansas!

a question (sorry to keep pestering you...)

Is it OK if I email you a question and have you email me the answer back? I don't want vandals to be able to see it, as it pertains to the protection scheme I am using on my userpage. I really don't want to semi-protect my userpage, but I do want vandals to have to dig to figure out how to vandalize my page. Thanks. J.delanoygabsadds 01:17, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes, go ahead.   jj137 (talk) 02:45, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hi, and welcome to the Arkansas WikiProject! We are a group of Wikipedia editors who help to improve articles related to Arkansas on Wikipedia.

Looking for somewhere to start? Here is a few suggestions.

  • You can check out topics on the main page.
  • You can add {{WikiProject Arkansas}} to talk pages of Arkansas-related articles, and assess them as well.
  • Check out the to do list for the WikiProject, and opt to try and complete some of those tasks.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or would like to talk about the project in general, feel free to leave a message on the talk page.

Thanks for joining! ChetblongT C 02:46, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

New Writer

I am now a writer of the newsletter for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Boston Red Sox and I just wanted an overview (summary) of the newsletter just to make sure I know what there is to know about the Newsletter. Thanks!--RyRy5 (talk) 03:39, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for this. CambridgeBayWeather Have a gorilla 04:23, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

No problem. :)  jj137 (talk) 04:24, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

RfA

Hey, I tried an RfA today that did not go well. Everybody's main opposition was my signature (the old one); specifically the word "kills" So it closed at 0/4/1. Oh well, better luck next time huh? Kimu 04:35, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

You take a look

K(OK). I will look at the old issues when I create an article. I'll ask you if I have a question. When I create my article or issue, I will let you take a look at it if I feel it needs a opinion.--RyRy5 (talk) 05:47, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

My Secret Page

I have finished creating my secret page. Can you find it first? Also, sign my Guestbook while your there.--RyRy5 (talk) 09:51, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Admin Coaching/Nomination

I wanted to thank you very much for your assistance in the Admin Coaching program that we began a while back. I have gotten busy with school, along with other various activities that I am involved in.

I also wanted to ask you if you would like to possibly nominate me in the RfA process. We discussed this before, but since it has been a while I wanted to make sure it is still OK with you. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 03:35, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Sure, I'd still like to nominate you if you want. Would you like to go ahead and give that a try?   jj137 (talk) 21:25, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Since I have some spare time, I think that it might not be a bad idea to give it a try. I am hoping that it will be more successful this time, considering that I have learned from the mistakes that I have made in the past. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 22:34, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
After reading your nomination, I believe that it should help to get the job done. I have followed the instructions you gave, as well as the instructions on the pages, so that I do not risk having the process closed early due to unconformity. I hope that this all works out well, but will remain humble regardless of the outcome. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 03:21, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
It looks as if we have run into some strong opposition, and will not pass this time around. I am thinking that the best that can be done will be that I have to get some more admin coaching, and possibly look for a different coach. I am not saying that your admin coaching program isn't any good, just that I need to seek the opinion on another user before starting again. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 20:26, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Draft Date

Since we've all joined the league, we need a draft date. Remember, before the start of the regular season and on a weekend. HPJoker Leave me a message 22:17, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Then scratch that date then. Next Saturday? HPJoker Leave me a message 00:31, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Is next to next Sunday the 23rd? If it is that should work out great. HPJoker Leave me a message 17:14, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: Huggle

Hi Jj137, earlier this morning (GMT) you reverted a 156.34X IP. His nickname is Libsey (because he's a librarian) and he's a very experienced editor. In that particular edit that you reverted it was clearly not vandalism. As we all know Huggle is a pretty dangerous tool and mistakes can be made. As a matter of courtesy, could you please apologise to this anon? His static IP is at User:156.34.142.110. Thank you. ScarianCall me Pat 10:58, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Oops, that was an obvious mistake. :( Thanks for telling me.   jj137 (talk) 14:58, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Deleted Page

Hello. I am at a loss. I just logged into to add some information to a page I have been editing for some months (Eric Edmeades -- motivational speaker from Canada) and the page is gone. Please help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.38.228.123 (talk) 20:12, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

My request for bureaucratship

Dear Jj137, thank you for taking part in my RfB. As you may know, it was not passed by bureaucrats.
I would, however, like to thank you for taking the time to voice your support, despite concerns cited by the opposition. Although RfA/B isn't really about a person, but more about the community, I was deeply touched and honoured by the outpouring of support and interest in the discussion. I can only hope that you don't feel your opinion was not considered enough - bureaucrats have to give everyone's thoughts weight.
I also hope that the results of this RfB lead to some change in the way we approach RfBs, and some thought about whether long-entrenched standards are a good thing in our growing and increasingly heterogenous community.
I was a little miserable after the results came out, so I'm going to spread the love via dancing hippos. As you do. :)
I remain eager to serve you as an administrator and as an editor. If at any point you see something problematic in my actions, please do not hesitate to call me out. ~ Riana ⁂ 11:42, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Single Page Application

An article with said name was once here. Now it is gone and most puzzling of it all is that there is no log of the discussion about deleting it that I can find. What happened? The article was oddly controversial yet you will still find numerous oinks pointing to this lost article.

In short, what happened? --19:13, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

What was the name of the article?   jj137 (talk) 20:38, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
The name of the article was Single Page Application. I have no idea why it was wiped and even less how it was done without leaving any traces. If possible I'd like to recover the text and continue the article elsewhere, especially as I have and still am developing a number of such applications, none of which require networking. Thanks in advance. --22:32, 10 March 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.164.187.153 (talk)

Rickey Henderson

Also, what exactly did you do for Jjbot? Can you help me out so I can create one to deliever all the Sports projects me and bball, or Burner created? Thanks! I already RFBA. Feel free to fix or change anything. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 00:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Look at it here. Do you just use AWB, under the "bot" tab? How does it opt out? - Milk's Favorite Cookie 00:56, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Oh. No one has opted-out so far so... - Milk's Favorite Cookie 01:07, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Can you finish Rickey Henderson? :0 Thanks! - Milk's Favorite Cookie 19:34, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Lol. BTW, consider joining this. I think you were in the 2007 drive, but... - Milk's Favorite Cookie 20:31, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Hmm... I already did 50. So did a few others. So I would take that as a yes. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 20:43, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, well I started an hour (ish) ago. I see you are almost done with Rickey. I think it's just a huge coincidence that this was made on March 8th.
The Citation Barnstar
For adding {{citeweb}} to several articles including Rickey Henderson, (nearly 80 references), I hereby award you the Citation Barnstar. Well deserved! - Milk's Favorite Cookie 20:49, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

WP:RPP

Hey,
I don't know if you heard but there is a major story brewing surrounding New York State Governor Eliot Spitzer and there are a couple requests on WP:RPP pertaining to it. Can you review them, particularly the one I made? I am getting tired of reverting IPs on the article about New York's lieutenant governor David Paterson. Thanks, J.delanoygabsadds 20:49, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

If you don't get my message until after an issue is dealt with, you don't have to tell me unless you want to. Thank for putting up with my pestering. J.delanoygabsadds 00:04, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

GA

Ok, I finished the rest. But, check out more GA things the guy put. I really think this is turning more intoa FA review. I can name a lot of FA criteria. And, it looks like the citations have to have every single piece of info. in the citations. (Wasn't that a FA criteria?) .... - Milk's Favorite Cookie 22:51, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Not what I was aiming at here... - Milk's Favorite Cookie 22:59, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
I think every. But after that, I would expect more suggestions. :( - Milk's Favorite Cookie 23:01, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
*sigh* It may be hopeless. I feel like nominating it for FA, regardless of what I get from the guy (more suggestions?) as soon as if we finish the list. I think it would pass. :) - Milk's Favorite Cookie 23:04, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
I notified the reviewer a couple of times about the criteria for FA and GA but, it seems he/she ignores it.... - Milk's Favorite Cookie 23:07, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Hey, You wanna help me set up the status indicator? I tried to do it myself earlier but I couldn't figure it out.

No, but... The question is: What? - Milk's Favorite Cookie 21:34, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

...type "done" in the space provided, and repeat until you have completed the range. Do not use the graphic templates - {{done}} or {{doing}} as they seriously slow down loading the page.
