Fowler&fowler again

Hello, Nishkid64. Would you please spare a moment to look at Talk:British Raj#New page for British India by user:Xn4? I'm getting battered by Fowler&fowler, who seems to have persuaded himself that his ownership of British Raj extends rather widely. If you feel able to do anything to calm the situation, it would be appreciated. Regards, Xn4 (talk) 01:07, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Edit war in "Sangh Parivar"

Dear Nish, I implore you to keep an eye on articles related to "Hindutva" and organizations concerned with that ideology. As a case in point, an edit war is going on in SANGH PARIVAR. One editor, it seems, is interested in pushing his POV, not attaching any weight to the discussions in the talk section, where even an ADMINISTRATOR has noted a few things.--Karimpuli (talk) 10:25, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

OTRS query

Hi Nishkid64. I'm doing some preliminary image checking for a Stonewall riots FAC run. The principle editor has an OTRS ticket number (2008080810018509) for Image:Stonewall Inn September 1969.jpg, but the OTRS tag has not been added. Do you have a minute to take a look at this one and tag as appropriate? Let me know if you'd like me to move it to the Commons first or need anything else. Thanks.

DYKs

Hey there. Thanks for your nice words. Well you must know that these articles are so under-represented in the pedia as well as the media. (That rhymed, didn't it? :D) Hence I thought that I could add to them. Where are you from? Mspraveen (talk) 02:45, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Maybe I can DYK it :) Let me take a look at it tonight. Nice to meet you here. Mspraveen (talk) 04:16, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Boy, the town is so poorly sourced in the media. I could only find a connection to the Thousand Pillar Temple and I created it. Did you see this temple as well? To answer your last message, I'm from Hyderabad as well. Most of my life I've been here, but for a few years in Mumbai and College Station, Texas. Mspraveen (talk) 17:04, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, that's been a concern for many articles that I wish to improve in terms of content, but they are oppressed with the lack of reliable sources. No wonder there is bias on Wikipedia. Btw, I just noticed that you are a member of OTRS. I've been waiting for Image:Rang_De_Basanti_Golden_Temple.jpg to get tagged with a ticket since quite some time. Can you possibly help here, with time permitting? Mspraveen (talk) 17:15, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. I've contacted Howcheng for the image. So long. Mspraveen (talk) 17:42, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends

You removed the wikilink from Eugène Delacroix in the personnel section of Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends saying "wrong person". The cover art of the album is the painting Liberty Leading the People which is definitely by Eugène Delacroix. --JD554 (talk) 07:48, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

RE:Anglo-Zanzibar War

Thanks for your improvements to the above article (with new refs, info, MoS changes etc). It is much appreciated. I will shortly nominate the article for a peer review with a hope to nominating it as a GA after I get some feedback. I was just wondering whether you had noticed anything else that needed correction with the article or had any suggestions? Many thanks once again for your edits which have significantly improved the article. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 12:37, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Further to the above the article's peer review over at the military history wikiproject can be found here if you want to keep an eye on any feedback. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 12:52, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Sure thing, I'll get on it this afternoon - Dumelow (talk) 14:40, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeah I was a bit concerned about them when I wrote it. I will try to replace the refs. Thanks for bringing it to my attention - Dumelow (talk) 09:52, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

I have added a new journal article (the abstract of which can be found here) and used a ref from the abstract. My university subscription only covers that journal up to 2004 though so I can't access the actual article. If you have access there may be more info inside. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 10:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about that, guess I slipped up there. I updated a couple of images with dates for author and replaced some with fair use. Hopefully should be better now, I'll delete the dubious ones from commons. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 16:15, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

I will be on holiday for about a week from Tuesday but when I get back I hope to get a copy of a book which will allow me to remove the remaining unreliable sources, which I cannot do at the moment. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 16:47, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I think we're cross editing. I've been labelling those as sockpuppets of Thais Alexandrina since she seems to be the main account. Exploding Boy (talk) 19:45, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Makes no difference to me :). I was just letting you know. Exploding Boy (talk) 19:49, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Not Sockpuppetry

You blocked a bunch of accounts, Thais Alexandrina, etc., for sockpuppetry.

That was wrong. There was no sockpuppetry. Most of those accounts, as far as I could keep them straight, anyway, never referred to any other posting in a false reinforcement manner.

Wikipedia, as far anyone can tell, allows multiple accounts. Sockpuppetry IS ONLY when you abuse that by creating accounts that falsely reinforce each other to create a false appearance of consensus. I never did that.

Most of these accounts were actually article specific, so it would be impossible to create any such impression.

The only reason why this request was made was certain users, administrators actually, are pursuing some sort of vendetta over pervious edit disputes.

Your blocking of these accounts is wrong, there was no sockpuppetry, and you are being used to further some other person or person's unethical adgenda.

How you all deal with this kind of backstabbing all the time is beyond me. Not Thais Alexandrin (talk) 22:28, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

You used sockpuppets to insert inappropriate edits to Mystical Seven (Wesleyan). This is a violation of WP:SOCK. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 22:42, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Félix Houphouët-Boigny

I wondered if you wanted to make an FA push on FHB any time soon. This would require serious copyediting and focused attention on the article. When preparing an article for FAC, I have found that it is often a good idea to spend some intense time preparing it. Do we want to commit about three weeks to this project during September? Awadewit (talk) 17:51, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Re

AzureFury has been stalking me and issuing threats to "revert my edits" as long as my rationals ado not satisfy him (as if he's a judge or an arbitrator here...and the threshold of what is acceptable is his liking), which is the very definition of harassment. Why didn't you warn him with a block for stalking me and edit-warring? He had never even edited that page, before he popped up out of nowhere to revert me, following me from another page.--CreazySuit (talk) 01:04, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

But he doesn’t seem to have got the message or have any regrets. From his comment above, it appears that he still thinks that issuing threats and stalking other editors are perfectly acceptable tactics that "successfully work". --CreazySuit (talk) 01:18, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello. The photos that I uploaded on Commons have two different sources. Some come from family albums (Image:Manoeuvres militaires françaises à Madagascar.JPG, Image:Syndicat d'initiative.JPG, Image:Jour de l'Indépendance malgache.JPG, and Image:Afrique 32.JPG). The others (Image:Tsiranana photo libre.jpg, Image:Mba.jpg, Image:William tubman.jpg) are extracted from reports of Office de Radiodiffusion Télévision Française.

Request for wider input on discussion at WikiProject Tennis

Hi, there is an extremely long and muddled discussion going on at WP:Tennis about the tournament tables found on tennis player articles (i.e. this type of table), and I'm notifying you as you identified yourself as a member of the project. The dispute is over the "Tournament Name" column, with the options being to either use the "sponsored tournament name" - in other words, the name involving the sponsor, for example Internazionali BNL d'Italia - or the "non-sponsored tournament name" - in other words, Rome Masters. I appreciate that this conversation is very long and convoluted, so a brief summary can be found here, which is also where I request the discussion continues.

New account attacking articles

An interesting situations seems to be developing in Sushruta and the Sushruta Samhita where one new editor seems bound to make a statement attributing the origin of all of India's literature to Ashoka. Most of it may have to do with a discussion here and here and a series of edits made on Leprosy which can be found here. He himself undid his edits on leprosy after I removed the off topic material but now he seems to do the 'attribution of the origin of India's literature to Ashoka' in Sushruta and the Sushruta Samhita for some reason.

I want to ask what can I do to defuse the situation? I'm pretty sure that this editor will not listen to reason or be civil (some of it may have to do with his being less experienced) but I can't let anyone attack an article for whatever level of experience one has. I myself spent days on wp: sandbox to attain minimum understanding of Wikipedia. I'm writing this to you because you have dealt with him once before for his edit warring where he made claims which he clearly did not intend to follow.

JSR (talk) 15:18, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Just asking for an opinion: Would a fully sourced rewrite of these two articles using proper sources take care of the present situation so no outside intervention is necessary? The editor is new after all, and bound to make a few mistakes initially. Should I try and attempt a sourced rewrite (the article can benefit from some improvement) first and see if the pattern persists ? JSR (talk) 15:31, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

I have made an effort and written the article using the earliest reliable sources at hand. Kindly see that his incivility and revert warring stops. I have just been left a disturbing message on my talk page. JSR (talk) 20:59, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

He just reverted and said: Doesn't matter, it doesn't change a thing, I provide another scholar source. It doesn't matter that he has not read the source (or has it)? His source doesn't deal with medicine and does not have any component of India's medicine in it. And what are his comments on Indian literature doing on a surgery page? Please look at his latest reverts after warnings. I have not reverted thrice but rewrote the whole thing sourcing it and removing all material which was nsourced and/or unrelated to medicine. Literary critique belongs in the literature of India, not as a sweeping generalization in surgery. The material was originally introduced by another editor on Leprosy and has been removed from there following discussion.

Nishkid64, I apologize for again imposing on you for OTRS "stuff", but I'm wondering whether you could tell me what ticket 2007110910016335 says. I ask because this image of a Federal Reserve Note was replaced with one containing "specimen" stamping and a summary referring to that ticket as the reason. I'm curious whether the "specimen" stamp is indeed a requirement to display/reproduce such currency; I can't find such a requirement in US statutes or government websites, so I'm wondering whether the ticket articulates something I've missed.
