User talk:Pedro/Archive 11

Dear Pedro, I have a promblem, a wannabe admin deleted my account of Zane Naylor. He said that it had no signifigance, although, if he had taken the time to research about Zane Naylor, he would see that Mr. Naylor is the record holder for the 2007 IHSAA Track and Field Gold Medal. After he had deleted my page, he continued to send me rude messages. At first, I ignored these messages, but he later attacked my Canadian heritage and also made insulting comments about my mother including calling her a mother f*****. I am asking you to revoke and if possible, remove his account from wikipedia. I am sorry if I have somehow messed up your webpage, but I am not that computer literate. I just needed to tell someone about this cyber bullying.

Hi Pedro: The above refers to this delightful missive, that I've preserved as a charming artifact:

Dear Mr. Canadian Accountant, I think that by deleting my page about Zane Naylor it shows that you have no consideration for people of other races, sex, color, or natioinality. This is because you show disregard and disrespect for American Athletes that are in the Olympics. If you continue to do this, I will be forced to report you to your supervisers. I hope that you get a chance to read this before you delete this just as you did with my Zane Naylor article. I hope you don't delete my comments. Since you're such a jerk that doesn't have a real job so you spend all you're time editing wikipedia for free. Plus, the only reason you dont like Zane Naylor is because he beat all the Canadians in the Olympics. Canada sucks!!! The only goodthing that came from British Columbias was Pamela Anderson! Thank you for your time, you fat nazi! sincerely Znznzn" I'm sure you know precisely what to do, and thanks for warning him in advance. Accounting4Taste 16:53, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for supporting my recent (and successful!) RfA. It passed at at 55/17/6. Kwsn (Ni!) 01:10, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you in advance

Dear Pedro,

it was brought to our attention today that our article about the world renowned artist, Igor Babailov, is currently in AfD status. Based on your professional judgment, you recently denied a request to delete this article, but for some reason it still remains in discussion. Igor Babailov is without question, one of the most celebrated and famous artist-realists in our century with credentials well documented including the national and international press in news articles - with media photos with world leaders, celebrities and his distinguished clientele. He is one of the only artists in the world to paint two Pope’s in a lifetime and as many leaders in the public and private sectors, and celebrities as he has. He has been featured in major news media including the New York Times, the Globe & Mail, Fox News, on major TV shows like Regis and Kelly, etc. His works are official and hang in the history of art on the walls of the Vatican Museum in Rome, at the JPII Cultural Center in DC, in presidential libraries, in Parliament, the White House, the Kremlin, at Harvard, and the list goes on and on. One of his paintings about the Columbus discovery of the America was chosen by the leading SA publishing company for inclusion into the first historical Peruvian Encyclopedia. He is a published artist, illustrator, and spokesperson for classical realism and has kudos and tributes from distinguished leaders of his contribution to promoting culture and the arts. The realm of his immense success and leadership in the arts is without question or doubt. What do you suggest in this regard for Igor Babailov to maintain his accurate profile and place on your Wikipedia listing? Thank you kindly. Mnewyork 02:27, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Race of ancient Egyptians

A full page protection isn't required and it hasn't helped in the past. If the edit warring continues I propose that the entire page be sanctioned to 1 revert per week, where if any editor reverts content that is not a self revert or is not obvious vandalism, that editor is blocked. The blocks will increase in duration after each violation. The rule applies to both administrators and non-administrators. This will mean that the article can improve, but at the same time edit wars won't occur. Wikidudeman ^(talk) 14:17, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds a sensible proposition to me. Pedro : Chat 14:29, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No! I found your comments very constructive. Probably the most constructive out of all of the comments:) Its the unconstructive and unsupported ones that annoy me, like saying that I have not improved since my last Rfa.--SJP 22:28, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I actually don't see a single comment which says you haven't improved at all from your last RfA; my comment was "Not enough has changed", not "Nothing has changed". Daniel 22:36, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: RfA

I'm confused. I can't see why you can't just ask for the +sysop bit back. I know you've had immense frustration with the project in the past, but my understanding was you didn't need to go through RfA to regain your admin rights, as blocks etc. aside you relinquished the tools yourself ? Pedro : Chat 10:17, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The "blocks etc." are the reason it's necessary. I've already been told that I would have to pass another RfA due to the circumstances; unfortunately this was quite a while ago so I can't remember where. If a bureaucrat wants to ignore this and skip the request anyway, they're entitled to do so, but it would likely be controversial, and I would recommend against it – Gurch 11:35, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. I certainly agree that it is better to be re-instated with a firm mandate from the community. Best Of Luck. Pedro : Chat 11:39, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Wow, I'm flattered. Thank you -- I certainly haven't ruled that out. I was hoping for another month or few of contribs (so I can spend more time writing articles) before I thought about it though. Perhaps after the holidays? (And sorry for the short reply, but I'm in a RL time-crunch. I'll try a more detailed reply later). Best, --Bfigura ^(talk) 13:40, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In case you didn't know, you seemed flummoxed on the help desk, categories need a ":" to show correctly on a page e.g. [[:Category:Future events]] Otherwise the page gets added to the category. Sorry if you knew already... Regards. Woodym555 16:34, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Helpdesk Username

Driving by the help desk, I noticed your recent post and that username is concerning. I took a quick look on Google and apparently it is the "joke" moniker of a member of this band. I'm not sure this gets him off the hook of a divisive/offensive username, even if he is this individual as, per WP:U, the name of a well known person is only acceptable if the individual is verifiably that individual.--Fuhghettaboutit 11:03, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re List of Lycaenid genera

Hi

I tried to get my comment in about this page but you had deleted already. I shall paste the comment here:

Explaining this page

Hello. This page is part of an ongoing project to list links to all Lepidoptera genera in Wikipedia - many existing pages are orphaned and I intend to add many genus descriptions myself. Some families such as Lycaenidae contain several hundred genera and it is more practical to split the page alphabetically - I have created main page here and I will add the various subpages over the next few days. I have treated several other families this way already. See eg list of geometrid genera and its subpages to see how this will eventually work. Richard Barlow 10:56, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Will I be OK to recreate this page? Can you let me know thanks Richard Barlow 11:11, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou for your assistance, keep up the good work! Richard Barlow 11:18, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SpeedyDeleted UserBox

The original SpeedyDeletion for this [1] userbox was incorrect as the content was not the same as the original. The original userbox was deleted because it referenced a campaign. The new one did not. It was deleted anyway. How do I stop the userbox being automatically added to SpeedyDelete list? Thanks. beano 11:25, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I really would like an Admin to review that decision. I removed "the ongoing campaign" because it was deemed unsuitable. I used the generic term 'efforts' instead, which doesn't necessarily imply that there is a current effort at any given time or that there is anything sinister in it. At the moment there are certainly efforts to limit the use of the flag by removing it from specific articles. I oppose those efforts. I don't agree that this is against WP:AGF or WP:CIVIL. beano 11:46, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. beano 12:01, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sally Field

"You like me! You really like me!"

Thanks very much for your support and assistance during this process. It started almost by accident, when you contacted me about the user whose article I'd tagged with a speedy delete... I thought, "I like this guy's style of interacting with users," and figured you would be a good person to help me become an admin. And by golly, it worked!! I suppose you realize that now I have to "pay it forward" to someone if they seem to need it.

I understand that I have to go and leave a message for everyone who participated in my RfA process; I have seen that these are sometimes elaborate messages in unusual formats, but my style is more about the personal message in ordinary type, so I think I'll do that, unless you have any comments to the contrary. Thanks again.

Cheers, Accounting4Taste 13:30, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LOL yes, you caught me, up early to check the results -- although I have a standing medical appointment every Friday morning before my working day begins, so I must be up early.

Of course, but we all know from lessons learned several months ago that prewtending to be somebody you're not isn't cool on Wikipedia, especially for an admin (or those aspiring to the job).

What is meant to be and what is not...

Thank you for your recent comments and vote at my Request for Adminship. It was not successful. I don't believe this is unfortunate as it leaves me with much to ponder and a fresh slate from which I can better myself as an editor in order to be more compliant with the policies that are expected by Wikipedia.

If you feel that there is anything that was not covered by the RfA that I need improvement in, I would implore your input and feedback as I hope and intend to improve as best I'm guided.

All the best in your own endeavours in the real world, and also when you're not on Wikipedia. linca linca 14:05, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User:MSJapan

Hi, you recently re-deleted the user page for MSJapan... I assume you were acting upon what you saw as the user's request... but please take a second look. I beleive the page had been deleted previously (due to the user's request) but that he had second thoughts about leaving the project and has requested that it be reinstated - (see here). William Connalley had just acted upon this request, only to be followed by your deletion the next day. I have a feeling that we are dealing with simple Admin miscommunication. William probably reinstated the last version of the page... which contained the delete request... which you then acted upon in good faith, not knowing that the editor actually wished to return. Would you be willing to reinstate the page per MSJapan's most recent request. And perhaps remove the delete request, so that this does not inadvertanlty happen again. I will ask MSJapan to confirm his desire to reinstate on the talk page. Thanks Blueboar 19:05, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I had asked for my userpage to be undeleted, and you deleted it again...

Could you fix that? MSJapan 19:12, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Standard standing article deleted

Hey Pedro. I recently wrote an article about a band called Grey Rose. A few hours after, I discovered it was deleted. I published it again with a request that it won't be deleted, with an explanation that this article is nothing but a well-written, neutral article, yet it was deleted again, by you.

Please explain why.

I know you are out this weekend, so I wanted to personally let you know that the late transclusion of Lara was my fault. I created the page and was asleep when she accepted the nom. Please don't hold that against her, dood. the_undertow ^talk 23:25, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's true. It has no relevance to her conduct or ability or is even something she had control over. It wouldn't be right not to support simply because of that. Wikidudeman ^(talk) 23:37, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain how this event reflects on my qualifications for adminship? Because I really don't understand. I mean, I understand your concern, and appreciate that you are attempting to add this information to the instructions, but I feel like you're using me as an example to make a point. Just a month and a half ago you were urging me to go for admin. And I know it's only a neutral, but it's not about the vote. The whole thing just confuses me. Of course, I'm stressed and everything is a little more sensitive, but it's been bothering me. So just some clarification would be appreciated. Lara❤Love 04:39, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Pedro, just noticed your vote at Majorly's RfA. Considering that nigh on 100 editors have lauded Majorly for his nobility and dedication to the project by going through another RfA and risking his tools, I thought I would come and ask you to reconsider. I don't think it's really about ego, I think it's about making sure the community still supports him. GlassCobra 14:09, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Admin?

Hi, thanks for the offer and the kind words but I have no intention of becoming an admin, now or anytime in the foreseeable future.

Vandalism policy

Hi there: I'm wondering if you can help me by pointing me to the correct policy. There's a charming little note posted on the bottom of my talk page which I've preserved because it made me laugh; what I'm wondering about is the comments on the user page of the author User:Znznzn. I think this will happen more and more as I work on new page patrol, which is why I've already semi-protected my user page, but I'm wondering just what the policy is on comments like this; how, if at all, do I get rid of them, and under what policy? Thanks, from your fat Canadian Nazi friend... Accounting4Taste 17:26, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And adding to this an e-mail I got a minute ago: "Why have you deleted my 12 year old daughters account of the word Frerard. It wasn't nonsense and it took her ages to do. It was accurate and I see no reason why you would simply pounce like this." I'm not expected to answer this rubbish, am I? Accounting4Taste 17:35, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and FYI, the word "Frerard" refers to gay slash fiction around the two leads of the band My Chemical Romance. What the !%$#@$ her 12-year-old is doing writing articles about that, I'll never know. Accounting4Taste 19:28, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One further point that I'm hoping for your help with: I'm concerned about User:Abhih. My reading is that he's making a lot of bad decisions around speedy tags and being very caustic when tagging, especially for a user who's been on board less than a week. What is your approach to dealing with situations like this? I want to tell him to calm down, this isn't a jihad, but I'm concerned about losing a productive editor. Your advice would be very welcome. Accounting4Taste 19:28, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comments and the actions... So it's G10 I use on users like User:Znznzn, eh? Okay, thanks, good to know. About "Frerard" ... I believe it had already been speedied twice ... I'll make a note to go back to the user's talk page if I can. As far as User:Abhih is concerned, thanks, that's a very good path. A couple of polite reminders are in order, at least the first one will be forthcoming the next time he goes on a rampage about every single Four Seasons hotel in the world. Or whatever.

Am I rueing the day you talked me into it? Hell no!! I think I've been more productive on new page patrol than I ever was before -- I worked at it long enough to have the policies in my mind, now I have the tools to make it all happen. And new page patrol seems to need a lot of mopping up... I can't say if it's due to the new policies or not, but I guesstimate I deleted more than 200 in the last 24 hours and the flood shows no signs of abating .

Hi there, as a frequent commentator at RfA, I wondered if you might join the modest push I'm making at the moment to get more admin candidates nominated. Anybody come to mind? Tim Vickers 17:44, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to be nosy, but I noticed this below my own comments and wondered -- is it appropriate to give User:Bfigura a nudge? I think I'll wait a bit till the newness rubs off my own mop before trying to enlist more admins, but he does seem like a good candidate to me and I think he'd listen to you.

I am a little confused. One one of the RFA's I saw you commenting about people voting before transclusion. What exactly is transclusion, and "hidden voting". I have seen this mentioned before but it completely confuses me as to what it is. What does someone do to be determined as "hidden" voting.

Transclusion

Thanks for the kind words.

Doubtless it was an error to put one of the government-bred race of pigmen in any position of authority, but I hope your confidence in me proves justified. Even a man pure of heart and who says his prayers at night can become a were-boar when the moon is full and sweet. Fortunately, I'm neither a were-pig nor pure of heart so this doesn't appear to be an imminent danger to Wikipedia for the moment. Fortunate as well because were-pig hooves are hell on keyboards and none too dexterous with computer mice. If ever I should offend, act uncivil, misstep, overstep, annoy, violate policy, or attempt to topple the fascist leadership of Wikipedia, please let me know so I can improve my behaviour and/or my aim. I am not an animal; I am an admin. And, of course, if there is any way in which I can help you on Wikipedia, please do not hesitate to ask me. Despite my japes, I am indeed dedicated to protecting and serving Wikipedia to the best of my foppish and impudent abilities. I will strive to be an admirable admin, shiny and cool, reasonable and beatific.

Non-bitten newbies sometimes respond well

I was ... well, let's say astonished ... to receive User talk:Accounting4Taste#Re: Cruse Brothers' Production. I didn't exactly bite, but you could definitely say I nipped. Apparently I can express myself and still be helpful, and the occasional newbie reacts well. Believe me, I was regretting my nip 30 seconds after I placed my response on his talk page, so I think this has been a lesson in more ways than one. In future, MUCH more polite, on my honour!! (And I'm sorry that the child at the top of this page picked you to try it on with -- he got blocked by a bystander, and I'm not a bit sorry.)

My work with the mop has been very satisfying, although most of it has been new page deletion. I feel as though I should "pay forward" your kindness by offering to coach someone, but I will wait until I have a little more generalized experience under my belt. Cheers!

I know that it's a little late for this, but I'll continue to give out cards until November 10th. --Zacharycrimsonwolf 14:37, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request for help

You previously indicated that you might be willing to help transclude this page onto the page of active nominations: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Emperor. If you're still willing to do so, any help would be appreciated I think. None of the rest of us have a clue how to do it apparently. John Carter 16:05, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Crime in the Kennel‎ csd deletion

Hi Pedro, as per a note I left on the page of User:Jonathan, this was simply a poorly created stub about an actual book in the Hardy Boys series, and I believe was incorrectly tagged. No need to restore, I'll just recreate it with an infobox. ~Eliz81 ^(C) 22:32, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, could you let me know the username of the creator, so I can leave a note on their talk page about it? ~Eliz81 ^(C) 22:34, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

O.o you were totally right about the font chaos! A little </font> tag did the trick ;) ~Eliz81 ^(C) 22:44, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
