Suspected Socks & PERSONAL ATTACKS

Hello Kilo. You have dealt with two incidence of sockpuppeting by this user before: user:Curandero101...He is at it again as user:Thamarih...Made a formal report with the evidence and the whole bit, but thought to let you know personally since you addressed it both times it happened previously. Keeps removing the link to our Church Aurora Baha under Ayahuasca external links, which having been made aware of the Conflict of Interest policy I have left out until put up by an independent person; although it had been up for quite some time without issue until this user removed it. In a stroke of irony he placed a link to his church under the same external links with his sockpuppeteer user:Curandero101 and keeps adding it back personally against the same Conflict of Interest policy. Doing my best to follow the procedures. Working hard not to have to engage this juvenile behaviour. Hoping you might take the time to independently evaluate our Church Website Aurora Baha at www.aurorabaha.org and if you feel it appropriate add our link back. Thank you in advance.

This is a revise. The same user user:Thamarih has now begun a campaign of blatant personal attacks on one of the members of our society in violation of Wikipedia's Policy to comment on content and not contributors at talk:ayahuasca; as well as violating the 3RR rule on both ayahuasca and talk:ayahuasca. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Article Class (Stub, Start...)

When you rate an article on its class, please be sure to capitalize the class name (i.e. {{FilmsWikiProject|class=Start}} instead of {{FilmsWikiProject|class=start}}) or else it will not be removed from the Unassessed category. Thanks, Cbrown1023 00:42, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

American Psycho

The talk page of American Psycho says you are active in improving the article. I suggested many improvements to the article on the talk page, albeit rather hastily. I am interested to know your opinion on these, and whatever other comments you might have. Cheers. Rintrah 16:32, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Can you track down sources and improve the style of the Themes and Symbolism section? I will try to reorganise the article appropriately, and summarise it when I get my book back. Rintrah 17:44, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Since I have come to this article, I and others have rooted out original research, cleaned up the sections, made the paragraphs more logically structured and succinct, improved the style of composition (including how easily it can be read), improved the grammar, found possible sources for criticism (which have not yet been used), rewritten the Synopsis (my first attempt was a hasty, very rough job), suggested improvements, appropriately reorganised the sections, deleted a superfluous section, and reviewed it for improvement to GA status. That is, we have improved it enormously and I have played a very large part. Now it is written better than most B-class articles, and is held back unnaturally from GA status because it fails the citations criterion. There are B-class articles written so poorly that this article would seem a great work of literature by comparison. If another editorput in half my effort to the article into finding sources, this article would have easily elevated to GA status. It was rated as B-class before I came upon this article (I think), or a long time ago. So it is frustrating. Even my dilligent attention to many, many tiny details is all in vain. Oh well.

Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/David Justin

Hi there, Following your suggestion on Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/David Justin, I asked for a check user. The check user Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/David Justin has shown "that Wright, Creighton, and Wise are sockpuppets". These accounts are Bryant Wright, Ralph Creighton, Stu Wise. Other accounts were too old to be checked. So as an administrator who has shown interest in this case, what are the next steps to be followed? Nunquam Dormio 09:06, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

The accounts have been blocked. Thanks, Iolakana•T 16:51, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

LiveScience

Greetings, administrator unit.

It appears as if you protected the LiveScience.com page. You may wish to create a protected redirect page to Imaginova, the owner of the Space.com, SpaceNews.com and LiveScience.com web sites. What was the reason for deleting the page instead of upgrading it to something useful? (Ideally, the "PROD" reason code could have been a link to the codes list, which presumably exists somewhere.)

Wikiborg 11:42, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

I think that it is best to wait until there is consensus to delete these, then protection could come in. Iolakana•T 16:46, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

September Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Barnstar Brigade Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors! What's New? September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves! Appreciation Week, a program currently in development, now has its own subpage! Share your good ideas on how to make it awesome there! The Esperanza front page has been redesigned! Many thanks to all who worked hard on it. Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

The last AC meeting (full log) The proposals page has been updated, with some proposals being archived. Since the program in development Appretiaion week is getting lots of good ideas, it now has its own subpage. The September 2006 Council elections will open for nominations on 18 September 2006. The voting will run from 25 September 2006 until 30 September 2006. If you wish to be a candidate or a member of the elections staff, please list yourself!

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

Changes to Socksuspect2 template

I made some changes to the {{socksuspect2}} template to hopefully help investigations in the future by clarifying who is being accused of being sockpuppets and who the suspected sockpuppeteer is. Take a look and let me know if there is any problem with my changes. I was unable to get the sockpuppeteer entry to fill in automatically due to my lack of experience with the nuances of templates, maybe you can figure that part out.

Re: GreekEconomist

Hi, Kilo-Lima. Just to clarify, you meant it's "unlikely" that GreekEconomist is a sock, correct? Thanks for your time. --Akhilleus (talk) 16:23, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, it doesn't rule out that it is possible. I thought that it was unlikely, but you are welcome to add the username to Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Cretanpride. Iolakana•T 16:51, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

I did that before, actually. I was asking for a new look at the situation; sorry if I didn't make that clear. Thanks for taking a look at it, and I'll now consider the matter overwith. --Akhilleus (talk) 17:07, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Re: LinkBot

Hi Kilo-Lima,

You left a message on my talk page about 3 months ago asking about LinkBot, and what's up with it. Well, I thought you might like to know that there's now an on-demand web-based tool that does what LinkBot did, without leaving all the messages on talk pages. It's described at User:Nickj/Can We Link It. It's currently only temporary until a longer-term home is found, but if you want to give it a go it's up now and will be at least for the next few days. -- All the best, Nickj (t) 00:35, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Mr. Lefty's RfA thanks

Hi, Kilo-Lima, and thanks for supporting me in my recent request for adminship, which succeeded with a final tally of 70/4/4. I hope I can live up to your expectations, and if there's ever anything you need, you know where to find me! --Mr. Lefty Talk to me! 00:16, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Sending my name to check users.

Sir,

My I request you to explain why name is suggested for WP:RFCU? You must have read the evidence and my defence. I do not see any reason for my name to be either blocked or send to check user.

Please read my comments wherever I have posted. Do u find any of them against wikipedia's policy? Do you think I have ever violated the policies and guidelines Insted if you read the accuser's comments/edits those are more atocratic/hypocritic, intolerant and totally against Wikipidia's policy. (I am not complaining against him as I am not interested in fighting such idiotic "block" war, insted of prooving my point of view which I believe in.)

Please do not block my user name as it is against the freedom of expression for which wikipedia stands for.

Sockpuppetry and User:Ehinger222

You've archived the stuff at Wikipedia:Suspected_sock_puppets/Ehinger222, but I don't know what the conclusion of the case is. It doesn't indicate whether there is insufficient evidence or whatever the decision is... Am a little confused. Can you enlighten me? Cheers, Dibo 23:29, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

there's a reoccurrence of the same sort of edits by another IP on the 60.225.*.* range that bear remarkable resemblance to edits by the ip's and logins listed here by an anon user operating from 60.225.216.220 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) as can be seen from his contribs.

What do I do - the page has been archived, the previous sockpuppet tags remain, do i renew the case (and how would i do that), do i wait until the 10 days expire and then renew, do i leave it? I'm confused. Sorry, this is the first time I've involved myself in sockpuppet stuff. Incidentally, Topcattheirrefutable essentially admitted to sockpuppetry as I found out through CattleGirl on my talk page- "You may be interested to see a message posted on my talk page from Topcattheirrefutable. There he admits to having sockpuppets. I replied on his talk page. Thought you'd be interested, especially considering i noticed that there hasn't been a conclusion yet on the sockpuppetry evidence page. CattleGirl 07:56, 4 October 2006 (UTC)"

The exchange went as follows:

"== RE: Dear CattleGirl ==

Thankyou for your concern in the dispute. I essentially use no rules on wikipedia except the general convention of being wikipedian and attempting to improve the encyclopedia. I am the Ehinger but I am not Ehinger222 which is a different character. I have literally hundreds of created sockpuppets, but most of them are only used to create pages and are used once. I have literally contributed thousands of valid edits to wikipedia and have improved the enc yclopedia n areas very varied from Atlantis to the Basque language.

If I want to have a little fun at the expense of an i.d. that devotes its time almost exclusively to compiling"evidence" against me(most of it wrong for that matter), than is it really such a bad thing? Have a geeze at Dibo's account fr the month leading up to October 1st. The dude only came on looking for me. Oh ... and I am 90% sure that he is Tancred. They both eroneously assert tha soccer should be referred to as football which is stupid and wrong and thay continually troll by insisting on it in articles that they have done nothing to create or contribute to.

Comrade

13:06, 3 October 2006 (UTC)Topcattheirrefutable

You're welcome for my concern in the dispute. I want Wikipedia to be as peaceful as possible- and that, to me, means that if we follow all the rules and protocols then there will be non reason for that peace to be disturbed. If you are the Ehinger, you ARE a sockpuppet, and actually, i would not be the least bit surprised if Ehinger222 was you as well, considering the usernames are so similar. However, if you only use them once, then what is the point of creating them? Really, it is 'taking up' usernames that other people can't use in the future.

Even though there are some types of sockpuppetry that is fine on wikipedia, you do not fall under those headings. From what i can see, Dibo has gone to a fair bit of work to outline this sockpuppetry, and i have had to revert your userpage a number of times as well. And also, Dibo can come on whenever he wants- if it was the month leading up to this, him signing on probably led him to see you and your sockpuppets.

I know this defence is sounding a lot like i am taking sides, but i personally do not see the similarities between Dibo and Tancred. I've looked at their edits on that page a number of times, and can't see the resemblance. Also, even though they might agree on the same thing, doesn't necessarily mean that they are the same person. And if you don't mind me saying, i haven't come across an edit where either of them troll. However, if you are going to accuse them of sockpuppetry, you may want to pay attention to the rules, as the case won't be considered if you are not following protocol and entering it in properly.

You said before: If I want to have a little fun at the expense of an i.d. that devotes its time almost exclusively to compiling"evidence" against me(most of it wrong for that matter), than is it really such a bad thing? Well, firstly if it is wrong, you can comment on why it is wrong on the evidence page against you, however i think the case may have been closed, you may have to check the archive. CattleGirl 07:37, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Cattlegirl, I can remove the SP tag because I follow no rules and in 99% of cases I am entirely wikipedian. Protocol does not apply for me. 01:01, 4 October 2006 (UTC)Topcattheirrefutable

Remove it if you want, however i am going to revert it back, because i do follow the rules. It applies to the rest of us, and i for one do not see how you can be an exception if the rest of us make an effort to keep the peace and abide by the rules. However, i am going to check if you can remove it from your page yet, if the case is still open. However, last time i checked you had to keep it on your page for about another 8 days, 7 now. CattleGirl 07:37, 4 October 2006 (UTC)"

question about you stripping my article

Hi, I'm Raidon and I am the one that did the research and wrote the article about the artist Adeyto.

I have noticed that you stripped a large amount of my writing. My sources were IMDB data, the artists official site and artists official blog (that's if you can read Japanese). You mention "please see WP:NPOV, WP:CITE and WP:RS" but I consider your stripping was overzealous.

At least you could have refrained from stripping her "Photographer" information and the information about TV CF because this information is available and verifiable on artists official profile.

Besides you, I have noticed users 70.128.102.13 and 67.183.24.157 that are aggressively slamming this artist but are not doing ANY other contributions to Wikipedia. How about banning this trolls?

The reason for semi-protection was noted under Paradise Lost (band), and also spoke for all the articles above it (Tiamat (band), Rotting Christ, Crematory, Moonspell, Diabolique (band)). Perm-banned editor User:Leyasu has been using a sequence of IPs beginning with 81... and 86... to incorrectly change music genres and intentionally insert spelling and typos in articles.

Curious blocks

I see that you've blocked Cogito ergo sumo (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and Ex post factoid (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), apparently on the basis of this report, and I'm rather curious as to why you decided to block them.

Even assuming that they are all operated by the same individual, E Pluribus Anthony (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is not banned, so there's no inherent limitation on his ability to create new accounts. The three accounts in question can't even really be considered sockpuppets, as have entirely non-overlapping editing periods:

• E Pluribus Anthony (talk · contribs) - prior to August 18
• Cogito ergo sumo (talk · contribs) - August 27–October 15
• Ex post factoid (talk · contribs) - October 17

There's no policy, as far as I know, that generally forbids the abandonment of old accounts for new ones (announced or otherwise); and the sole blockable action that could have occurred here—evasion of the block on Cogito ergo sumo (talk · contribs)—didn't actually take place, as Ex post factoid (talk · contribs) first edited after that block had elapsed.

So, why the blocks? Kirill Lokshin 18:55, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm... You make a good point. I was only seeing it from the report's view. However, I still feel that the similarities in usernames seem to indicate otherwise. I'll unblock. Kilo•T 19:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, yes, I wouldn't be particularly surprised if all three accounts were the same person, but that's not, in of itself, something that requires blocking. ;-) Kirill Lokshin 19:25, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh God... :( I understand the techicallity about the "non-overlapping editing periods"... but what about his edits using anonimous IPs [2] Look IP of last edit instead of his registered account? He claimed to be two different persons, in order to give the impression of "consensus" on the Talk page of North America. What can be done? I already filed a request for investigation... AlexCovarrubias 19:37, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, do you have anything more specific on that last point? Skimming the conversation, I can't see anywhere that the IPs actually claim to be two different people. There's nothing wrong with editing from different IPs, and the participants in the discussion seem to be aware of the fact that it's the same editor behind both. (The fact that he's argumentative isn't really unacceptable per se; many people are.

I don't know what can be done when a registered user uses a anonimous IP to edit. It is clear that he edited anonimously to prevet his "main" account from being blocked. Cogito ergo sum and his anonimous aliases has been editing the same articles in the same period of time e.g. North America, Central America, Oceania, Borg Star Trek. 142.150.134.55 contributions, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/142.150.134.52 contributions, 142.150.134.53 contributions, 142.150.134.50 contributions, 142.150.134.49 contributions, 142.150.134.56 contributions, 142.150.134.57 contributions, 142.150.134.60 contributions, 142.150.134.61 contributions, etc. His IP range varies from 142.150.134.49 to 142.150.134.79. In the same period of time, check Cogito's and E Pluribus Anthony. He edited using anonimous IP when using those accounts to avoid complaints and blocks. AlexCovarrubias 20:18, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

If evasion of 3RR or blocking by using IPs occours that is a matter for investigation at the time. But as it stands the 3 accounts allthaugh quite likely the same person do not constitute a violation of WP:SOCK. Can the report and the tags on the users pages be updated accourdingly?

Mediators needed!

Hiya! I'm contacting you because you're listed on Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal as "willing to accept assigned cases" if you find it interesting. Well, we've got a bit of a backlog, and I was wondering if you'd look over the current list of new cases (I've copied it here for convenience) and tell me if you'd take any of them? I'd really appreciate it! :D

I think you might be interested in the Joe Sharkey or Nicole Kidman cases, if you like to work with biographical cases. If you want something challenging, you may want to give Hinduism or U.S. Roads naming fallout a try. Thanks again! ~Kylu (u|t) 21:44, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

informal request for comment

User:Jayjg has indef blocked me (again). I posted the whole story to user:Centrx, because I have been in contact with him before. Thought you might like to know. 87.78.178.9 (user:Subversive_element) 18:26, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I figure there's no personal attack any more. Is it because I'm blocked? So blocked users may be personally attacked according to WP policy, is that correct? 87.78.158.224 18:00, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Sarner Sockpuppet issue

I'm very confused about your sockpuppet decision related to user Sarner and myself. I'm not a sockpuppet of Sarner and have in fact disagreed with him on certain issues. And I don't seem to be blocked. Can you explain to me what is going on? Thanks. StokerAce 23:50, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Like StokerAce, I'm confused. The case seems to be archived (by you), does that mean it's closed? The message on the case page is very unclear. What does it mean to "take this to WP:RFCU"? If indeed the case is closed, does this mean I can remove the "sockpuppet" entry on my user page? Thank you. Larry Sarner 13:55, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Vincent Margera

Just wanted to say that when you reverse someones edit you might want to check if the edit is correct or not. I made an edit to the Vincent Margera page where someone earlier had said that the finnish word "vittu" means "David Bussy" when it actually means "cunt". That was changed by an antivandalbot, but when I contacted the person in charge of the bot and he changed it back to my version. Anyway, the teenageboy (which I guess it is) changed it back to David Bussy, and then I changed it to pussy which wouldn´t get caught by the bot, but then you changed it back to David Bussy, thereby perhaps contributing to harassing someone. So, make sure your edits are correct or just don´t do them! /Maria —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 83.253.25.54 (talk • contribs) 13:15, October 24, 2006.

I'll check this out. Kilo•T 17:50, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

I apologise. Perhaps you should include a minor summary of why you did change it, so that it never looked like vanadlism, in the edit summary? Thanks, Kilo•T 17:49, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Hungry girl troll

As you may know the "Hungrygirl" troll has been stalking me/trolling me so far four of his/her usernames have been blocked: User:Hungrygirl, User:Twentyboy, User:The Gayboy and User:Cutiepie guy — I believe a checkuser may now be in order to determine if there are any socks lying in wait? What do you think? thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 19:36, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Sock Puppet issue

I know I had to fix it but have chosen not to. With the issues i have with Cryogenic it makes it look to petty. Ill let others concern themselves with this. Thanks.Quode 19:58, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

But I don't see why you blanked the page that was auto-filled from the template. Kilo•T 17:50, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Kilz

I can't follow your reasoning on this one. Firstly, you've blocked the IP address for being "used to avoid 3RR detection." The user in question acknowledged responsibility for the edit 6 minutes later, without any prompting that I can see, so it hardly counts as attempting to avoid 3RR detection, or even using a sockpuppet. Surely some good faith can be assumed here. Secondly, it was that user's first edit to that page for more than 24 hours, so I cannot see how 3RR comes into it at all. If there's something I'm missing here I'd be glad to hear of it, but otherwise I cannot understand why you have issued this block. You appear to be offline, so I'll also make a note at WP:ANI. --Cherry blossom tree 20:53, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

I have been looking on ANI for the section - could I have the link? Agathoclea 15:36, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

It's at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Wikipedia:Suspected_sock_puppets.2FKilz, though there's no real thread there. --Cherry blossom tree 16:01, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

I agree with Cherry blossom tree - he should not be banned for this, it is unfair. His error rate for logging in is non-negligible (admittedly I did not check well enough). I therefore have subsequently assumed good faith.

A separate issue is why he was making this edit - it is a circumvention of the consensus building process. This is the only outstanding issue in my book, but being as he reverted his IP edit, that issue does not relate to the IP edit, but more the edits afterwards, and his breaking the 3RR afterwards, which again does not involve the IP edit. Widefox 15:12, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm not disputing that this edit (and subsequent ones) were bad. I haven't looked at the whole issue. This block seems to have been issued for using a sockpuppet, though, which I cannot agree with. I think we seem to agree here. --Cherry blossom tree 16:01, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, we agree. Widefox 17:08, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

No, I don't. That's wrong. I have responded at the noticeboard. Kilo•T 17:48, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Do you have anything to say with regard to my initial comment? If you made a mistake then that's fine but if you think you're right and I missed something then I really would like to know. Thanks. --Cherry blossom tree 22:30, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Blondie peer review

Hi, I'm glad you nominated Blondie for peer review. I hope it gets a good response. I don't know what I can add as I did a lot of work in the article and pretty well ran out of ideas. I think it needs to be fleshed out and go into a little more detail but I don't know exactly how. If I can think of anything that I think may be useful I'll address it on the peer review page. I just wanted to acknowledge your message and let you know that I don't know what to suggest. Cheers Rossrs 11:52, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Utzchips

Hi, I saw that you tagged this case with:

"This should be taken to WP:RFCU. Kilo•T 12:24, 5 November 2006 (UTC)"

I looked at WP:RFCU, (never filed before) and under the section Does your request belong here? is says

Obvious, disruptive sock puppet Block. No checkuser is necessary.

Disruptive "throwaway" account used only for a few edits Block. No checkuser is necessary.

I will take this case to checkuser if you think that is the right thing to do, but I think the part about "does your case belong here" suggests that the request does not belong there, because the evidence is obvious.

Perhaps I used too much evidence, so I will highlight the points that make the case fall under the "obvious" bit.

1. AvinSanjih (talk · contribs), Funnimilk (talk · contribs), MonMonstah (talk · contribs), SBruz10 (talk · contribs), 24.91.163.230 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) are all single use accounts created during the Afd discussion and used to vote, delete other editors' votes and or change other editors' votes.
2. Both Utzchips (talk · contribs) and 24.203.42.57 (talk · contribs) have signed comments with Utz [3], [4]

November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!) Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach. Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins. What's New? The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one! A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts. Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

The last AC meeting (full log) The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived. There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia. The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested! In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias. A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted! Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello. Signed... Natalya, Banes, Celestianpower, EWS23, FireFox, The Halo, Shreshth91 and HighwayCello 20:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

I'm not sure what the second part of the sentence, after the semicolon, means. --Metropolitan90 19:07, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi there. It just means that the talk page of the article is not a forum for discussing the act. The talk page is not for discussing the subject of the article. If it is used as a forum, then it does not help in improving Wikipedia. Is that fine? Thanks :) Kilo•T 19:11, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Philanthropist

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Philanthropist, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Philanthropist. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. — Sebastian (talk) 03:57, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Century-21-logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Century-21-logo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 07:00, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Snow Cake (Sigourney).jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Snow Cake (Sigourney).jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Fuzzy Zoeller edit controversy

Hello, there. As you may or may not know, the Miami Herald recently revealed that professional golfer Fuzzy Zoeller has filed a lawsuit against Josef Silny & Associates, Inc. for adding false statements to his Wikipedia biography.

For data gathering purposes, an SRS of 20 administrators has been created, you being one of them. I would like you to comment on this situation and its possible implications to Wikipedia, the accused company, and the general welfare of the community in general. (To what extent will this impact Wikipedia? To what extent will this impact those who use Wikipedia often? To what extent is the company guilty? Who do you believe is at fault?) Feel free to comment however you wish. I ask that you email me your responses via my emailuser page so as to reduce bias in your responses. (Again, don't post your responses on my talk page.)

The following are articles from various news agencies that you may use to inform yourself about the situation: Miami Herald, Herald Tribune, Web Pro News, The Smoking Gun.

I thank you for taking your time to express your opinion. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at any time. _└^Jared_┘^┌_talk^┐ 18:22, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Hello, Kilo-Lima. An automated process has found and removed an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, and thus is being used under fair use that was in your userspace. The image (Image:Arms of Trinity College, Dublin.png) was found at the following location: User talk:Kilo-Lima. This image or media was attempted to be removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media was replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image or media to replace it with, and or remove the image from your userspace. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 04:26, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Kilo-Lima/Archives/Archive VII, as a WikiProject Scotland participant, please check out this this thread and consider adding the bot results page to your watchlist so we can manually update the New Articles page. There are some false results for the first batch, but I'm sure we can collectively tune the rules to improve the output.

If we get enough people watching the results page, we'll be cooking with gas as they say :)   This looks like a great helper in finding new Scotland related material. Cheers. --Cactus.man ✍ 01:18, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

GAC backlog elimination drive

This form message is being sent to you either due to your membership with WikiProject Good Articles and/or your inclusion on the Wikipedia:Good article candidates/List of reviewers. A new drive has been started requesting that all members review at least one article (or more, if you wish!) within the next two weeks at GAC to help in removing the large backlog. This message is being sent to all members, and even members who have been recently reviewing articles. There are almost 130 members in this project and about 180 articles that currently need to be reviewed. If each member helps to review just one or two articles, the majority of the backlog will be cleared. Since the potential amount of reviewers may significantly increase, please make sure to add :{{GAReview}} underneath the article you are reviewing to ensure that only one person is reviewing each article. Additionally, the GA criteria may have been modified since your last review, so look over the criteria again to help you to determine if a candidate is GA-worthy. If you have any questions about this drive or the review process, leave a message on the GAC talk page. --Nehrams2020 00:12, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Glasgow International Airport Terminal.jpg, by Remember the dot (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Glasgow International Airport Terminal.jpg fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason:

Image description page for image on the Commons

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Glasgow International Airport Terminal.jpg, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it did not nominate Image:Glasgow International Airport Terminal.jpg itself.
