Big Brother Infobox Colors

Hey I just want to drop by and say that I went ahead and did the think User:Howard the Duck suggested for Infobox colors and swapped HoH and "three". HoH is now the green color and "three" is now yellow. And I switched all Nominations/Voting tables over to the same colors. I just wanted to tell you so you didn't think it was vandalism plus only you commented on the situation and this may attract more people to the discussion. I think I left something in all the edit summaries. Also have you talked to Jeeny? I haven't heard anything about her since BB8 US ended. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 02:39, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Note about hodgepodge

Hello, I noticed that you like to fight vandalism and I thought that I might be able to help. I have complied the best vandalism fighting tools into a single javascript file that I call "Hodgepodge" and I thought you might be interested in it. The file, once added to your monobook, can help you fight vandalism much much easier and quicker than without the scripts. The tool can be found here: User:Wikidudeman/Hodgepodge. Read the page for information on how to install as well as compatibility issues. If you have any questions then please leave me a note on my talkpage.

Re: Quick tags for speedy deletion

I'll take your advice. I do try to use discretion in making quick tags, but if something strikes me as obviously improper, I'll go ahead and do it. I have no problem with you removing the tag, and although the article ultimately was deleted, I don't think I was the one who re-tagged it (it's been a couple of weeks, I don't remember for certain).

Spare me the lectures. Thanks. Otto4711 (talk) 20:37, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

  • If the "appropriate response" was to file a report, then part of the "appropriate response" is to file it on all of the involved parties, not singling one out. As far as I'm concerned, removing sourced material from Wikipedia is vandalism and that's exactly what the other editor did. So in the face of an editor engaged in active vandalism and one whose response to a lecture you didn't care for, you choose to try to bust the latter and remain silent on the vandal.
  • As for trivia sections, I will point out once again that WP:TRIVIA is concerned with content, not the name. If you had any idea how much trivia I've integrated into articles and how many unencyclopedic "in popular culture" articles I've AFDed you would understand that the idea that I'm some sort of trivia-fiend is laughable. This information is not trivial, it is encyclopedic and this day and a half of sturm und drang about it is ridiculous. Otto4711 (talk) 01:52, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Signature

Thanks, I know that the square brackets are not neccessary, they were something that I mistakenly added during my first few edits on Wikipedia. I decided to continue adding them partially as a reminder for when dealing with new users that they won't always be familiar with the way that Wikipedia works and that I was once (still am in many ways) in the same position - and partially just out of habit. Having said that, if there is a technical reason why it's not a good idea I have no objections to stopping. [[Guest9999 (talk) 01:43, 20 November 2007 (UTC)]]

Question about sourcing

Good to talk to you, Rjd0060. Perhaps you can provide some advice, leadership on a question I haven't been able to get answered. The Jackson Free Press site has run into, essentially, two sourcing issues. One is over circulation/readership numbers. Allstarecho (who doesn't like the paper for personal reasons, but I digress) is insisting that the entry cannot point back to the papers's wiki, where contact info is provided to confirm those numbers. Those numbers are verified in numerous materials, but not published in a "publication" online. Is it Wikipedia's policy, then, that the numbers aren't valid here because they don't have a URL? And does this policy apply to all publications with a Wikipedia page evenly?

Secondly, he does not want the JFP referencing its own site in which its founders say that they named the newspaper after a civil rights-era paper. Clearly, that is the most primary source one could get on why the owners chose the name. Thus, do the owners have to be quoted saying that to a third publication in order for the information to be included in Wikipedia?

Oh, and finally, allstarecho, said that blogs, apparently even for newspapers, can never be used to source anything in Wikipedia. Is that a correct policy?

There has been a warning box added to the top of the site about using sourcing, even though the only questions seem to be the ones resolved above. Could you check all this out and give guidance? People at the paper do not wish to do anything wrong, but do wish accurate information to be stated about it, without negative bias behind it. Thank you for your help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jfpwebguy (talk • contribs) 15:06, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Your message (CSD of Mazel Tov (band))

Hi Rjd0060,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you; you actually messaged me while I was writing you a message, which meant I had to rewrite my message, which I didn't have time to do because I had to run, and on and on and on >.<

At any rate, thank you for your message. Regarding your concerns, I actually caught your change when I was going back re-checking my tags. I understand your concern about tagging pages too soon and see where you are coming from, but I have to respectfully disagree for a few reasons.

The first reason is the effect a tagging produces. Since I use Twinkle to tag, as you know the original creators of pages I mark for CSD are notified with templates specific to the type of tag--in this case, a template with a link to WP:BAND was dropped on the user's page. As it's not uncommon for users to post a line or two in their article and then move on or log off, I find that speed actually is of the essence if you want to catch them while they're still online, as doing so produces one or a combination of three effects:

  • The user does nothing and an administrator deals with the page as is
  • The user adds a {{hangon}} tag and either tries to explain why their topic is all right or works to bring it up to speed
  • The user asks on your talk page why you tagged their article for deletion

The first case does not happen every time the page is tagged while the user is online, but it happens 100% of the time when the user is offline. The second two cases, meanwhile, can only happen when the user is online, and I think they both produce a desirable effect. The second effect means that the user edits the article with a goal--they understand what is lacking in their article, and they have an opportunity to do something about keeping it. And since I always respond to users who ask why I tagged their pages, the third effect means that the user learns more about Wikipedia policy and gets some one-on-one advice on how to write a successful article. In short, the effect of rapid tagging is a net positive effect.

The second reason for the fast tagging is the content of the article in question. A new article about a band (especially one formed in the past year or two) that doesn't mention a label, album, or effect of the band on a local music scene in the first version is going to be about a non-notable band. After all, if the author is a member of the band in question their first instinct is going to be to mention their success--if they're a fan, they're going to mention either how cool the band is or where they heard them. In those cases I'll take the time to check it out, but when no such claims are made in the first go-around you can basically guarantee that the article is unsalvageable.

And finally, there's the guidelines. The section you're referring to in WP:CSD reads as follows:

"Before nominating an article for speedy deletion, consider whether it could be improved or reduced to a stub; if so, speedy deletion is probably inappropriate. Contributors sometimes create articles over several edits, so try to avoid deleting a page too soon after its creation if it appears incomplete. Users nominating a page for speedy deletion should specify which criteria the page meets and consider notifying the page's creator."

I do my fair share of stub and notability tagging during newpage patrol and top it off with return visits to pages I've tagged for CSD. Sometimes these return trips involve me retagging articles and warning the authors for deleting them, occasionally they find me removing a tag from an improved article, and every now and then something a little less expected happens. While I am keen to make sure that what needs to stay on Wikipedia stays on Wikipedia, given what it takes to actually delete content I consider the high potential return to be gained through prompt sorting to more than balance out the low risk of an inappropriate tag, and I think this philosophy adheres to the spirit of the guidelines.

I know I'm probably just preaching to the choir and that you may very well come back with irrefutable proof that my fast tagging is inappropriate, but I wanted you to know that while I appreciate your concern and the time you took to leave me a note, there is indeed a method behind my madness :) Take care! --jonny-mt(t)(c)Tell me what you think! 13:55, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

It certainly is against a Neutral Point of View and blogs are not reliable sources anyways. - Rjd0060 (talk) 21:09, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
The blog cited was part of the article before DaveyC's vandalism, and I believe WP:RS is inapplicable because the blog referenced is not being used as authority for facts, but rather to show that certain fans, including the person who writes that blog, have reservations about MyFC's takeover of Ebbsfleet. I don't think we should need to wait until a newspaper article, or the like, reports that differences exist and itself cites to blogs, like the one here. The blog cited is a reliable source for showing the opinion of its author. (BTW, I am not that author, and disagree strongly with his views, but I thought it was important for NPOV for it to be in there.) Friejose (talk) 17:55, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
You said on my talk page, "The blog is not reliable per our guidelines. The blog is a POV piece, and statements souced by it have been removed." Okay, but that misses the point. The blog was not cited for a factual proposition, i.e. MyFootballClub will do this or that tomorrow, and has done this or that yesterday. Rather, the blog was cited to show that opinions on a certain issue are divergent. Obviously, a blog is non-reliable and secondhand for facts, but when it is being cited to show the opinion that is being propunded in that blog, it is a perfectly good source. And that's how the citation referencing a blog was being used here. Friejose (talk) 18:11, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Rude false remarks

I wrote an article about Margareta Svensson. It upsets me that it is deleted, but even more so that there are harassments from so called administers that apparently can say whatever they like, with no knowledge at all and no interest in finding out either. THOSE FALSE ALLEGATIONS will be what people will read about Margareta Svensson, not her extraordinary international career as a singer-pianist. There was NOTHING in that article that wasn't true, and if you administers were half-way professional you would find that out.

I had written I think three sentences when I had a message that she was not notable. And yes I did delete that message, and I only deleted that ONE, because it was not relevant. The article was not up. I couldn't imagine that someone who could write such a rude false remark after me having written almost nothing at all, could be favored. Is Wikipedia a game to see who can stand unfair beatings and just turn the other cheek?

I may have made the mistakes of creating an account with the name Margareta Svensson, because I thought that was how it was supposed to be done. And I also uploaded much before it was the final article, because I wanted to see that it worked. I didn't think anyone was that interested in my work that I got a comment long before I was done. Another lengthy rude comment, complained how I had worded a sentence, and I made changes to accommodate.

One comment that it couldn't be valid because references were in Swedish - I must say that arrogance does not even begin to describe such a comment. English is the language that is used by the world, but most people in the world does NOT have English as their first language.

It seems that administers are people with too much time on their hands who have nothing better to do than to quickly, within minutes of first activity, beat a new person down with rude, false remarks. Shouldn't you be interested instead? But being mean may be how you get your satisfaction? You are no better than bullying kids on the playground.

Seeking Guidance

I am new to Wikipedia, and thought the best way to learn would be to write an article from scratch about a subject that I am uniquely qualified to address. I have not yet reached the phase where I explore the pages looking to make edits, or involve myself in back and forth with admins and users. I appreciate the work that you and others like you do, but it's frustrating for new people like me when at the very beginning I get tagged for speedy deletion, and I'm fighting my way out of a corner from the outset. If I knew more about the process, for example, how long it takes and how many votes before a page is deemed unworthy and deleted, I'd be less prone to dramatic monologues like the most recent one on the discussion page for StudioBard. I want to be a productive, respected member of the Wikipedia Family, and I know that doesn't happen overnight... so please, help me reduce my stress level... offer some personal insight, and don't consider me to be a suffocating fish on the deck of the ship, frantic for breath, even if that's how I'm starting to feel... don't toss me... give me a bucket of water and let me breathe for a bit. Wikipedia can be quite overwhelming for someone new, especially when the most experienced folks around are circling for a deletion. Studiomanager (talk) 19:44, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

The only reason that I chat to jeeny most of the time I'm on here is that the music pages I watch are always updated before I have a chance to edit them.

One of my favorite places Dear Rjd0060,

Thank you for your strong support in my recent RfA. Words nor pictures can express my heartfelt appreciation at the confidence the community has shown me. I am both heartened and humbled by this confidence. I will carry the lessons learned from the constructive criticism I have received with me as I edit Wikipedia, and heed those lessons. Special thanks to Pedro and Henrik as nominators. Special thanks to Rudget who wanted to. A very special thanks to Moonriddengirl for her eloquence and perceptiveness.

Karyn Kupcinet

I noticed you had left a note for one of the editors who have been disrupting things at this page. Would you look at the Talk:Karyn Kupcinet page and weigh in on the problem with the anonymous IP 66.77.102.10? Thanks. Wildhartlivie 00:08, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Personally, I believe they are the same person, and I think they are anonymous accounts connected to the other regular editor to the page. We made a sock puppet request earlier in the month, but apparently the editor was gone over Thanksgiving week (first break he's taken in months), and we didn't do a good enough job in outlining the evidence. However, I've done a search on all the anon IPs listed there, plus the new one from today, and they are all in the Los Angeles area, including LAX, UCLA library, LA County Library and two from the exact same provider (socal.rr.com). It's a little creepy. I'm not really sure where to go with all of this from here. Wildhartlivie 00:45, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Personal Attacks

Hi. You warned me today about making a personal attack on another user which, granted, in the heat of the moment and after months of frustration, I finally did on another user's talk page. For that, I apologize. However, I am now being personally attacked by an anon IP on the Karyn Kupcinet talk page. As you can see from my initial response, I did not verbally attack them nor did I respond to them. In fact, I haven't engaged in any debate with them seeing as it is an anonymous IP user and I'm guessing it's the first time they've edited the page. Me and another editor have had nothing but trouble with an editor on that page for the past month or so. Last night, a new one took it upon themselves to remove sourced info because they don't agree with it. After reverting their changes, they called me an "obsessed fan" (which for the record, I'm not) and then proceeded to talk down to me on the article's talk page. Today, I get attacked and accused of things I've never done by an anonymous user. As I said, calling someone a name isn't right, but this is an ongoing battle and it's getting beyond irritating and l snapped. Me and the other editor have tried all methods to get the page protected and even have some sort of administrative help and so far, nothing has worked. Now it seems to be getting personal and slanderous. I like editing on Wikipedia and a quick check of my history will show that I contribute regularly and have had no problems with other editors in the past, but this has gone too far. I don't want to stop editing here because of a few bad apples, but I find it a bit unfair that these personal attacks and constant edit wars are allowed when basically, me and another editor are trying hard to be civil with people who are constantly rude and growing more disrespectful as the days go by. The more they're allowed to do, the bolder they are becoming. I am not attacking you personally as I know you have certain procedures to follow, but I try not to get into trouble or cause problems and I wanted you to know exactly where I'm coming from. Pinkadelica 06:37, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response. I kinda lost it for a second last night and felt that I should explain myself. Thanks for looking into the personal attacks too. Pinkadelica 06:49, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Japanese red army vid link - why did you remove it?

Why did you remove the youtube video link? I think it is pertinent to the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Parliamentary Funk (talk • contribs) 05:36, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Tagging Articles

I know it can be a useful tool, but when you tag every single station in the entire state of Pennsylvania, that is just weird and puts a TON of work on editors to either revert those tags or admins to update them (if they stick). I have no problem with someone working on those articles, hell I encourage it! I just don't want to see 200 some odd stations tagged unnecessarily.

Also, the entire time (except for my last post) I have been nice, even encouraging at one point (which is rare for me). I liked the "poem" quote though. :) - NeutralHomer T:C 05:41, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Like I said "except for my last post"...I lost my patience with the guy. When all you get is nonsense and a person isn't listening (and I am trying...honestly trying...to help) you lose your patience. Should have I? No, but I can only try so much. - NeutralHomer T:C 05:43, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
I understand that people work off that category, but I have never seen someone tag page after page. A year and a half here (and I have seen alot) and that one...well, ya really can't be sure how to handle that. How do you handle that? I will be honest, I don't have much patience, but with newbies I try and give them as much of it as I can and benefit of the doubt (we were all newbies once). But when I seen that...I wasn't sure what to do and when the editor continued to not get what I was trying to say and throw his brand of "insult" at me (which made me laugh) I began to lose all patience.
If people can update those pages without erasing 3/4 of them, great...I'm all for it. But someone has to tell me what I should do the next time this happens (cause I have no clue...and I obviously didn't do it right this time around....again). - NeutralHomer T:C 05:51, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Big Brother 9 (US) Dates

CBS has released their dates for Big Brother 9. The premier dates are Tuesday, February 12, 2008 at 9/8c with additional airings beginning on Wednesday, February 13, 2008 at 8/7c and Sunday, Feburary 17, 2008 at 8/7c. Here is the source [5]. I guess now that we have the dates and such we can create the article for the ninth season. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 23:27, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

I wish there was something direct from CBS too but the only thing from them is their homepage that can't be sourced. So since it is confirmed do you think we should create the page because now that it is confirmed I suspect that it won't be long before someone who can't spell properly will create the page. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 02:00, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

With all due respect, Rjd0060, I think you are letting your loyalty to Jeeny get in the way of your objectivity. Yes, I went to ANI when I realized Jeeny was using an alternate account. I was her mentor, and the terms of the mentorship (which I brokered to get her unblocked) clearly stated that I would call for an administrator if she was disrupting the project. Using profane edit summaries while editing under an alternate identity is clearly disruptive. And now Jeeny is disrupting it again by changing an image that is on over 100 user pages. I'm sorry if you think I am disloyal to a friend, but my loyalty lies with this project. Jeffpw (talk) 06:28, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

False and hurtful allegations

Please stop and think before criticising other user's contributions. I am doing this because at the moment the way the date formats work in Wikipedia is U.S. centric, in breach of the long standing policy that all variants of English have equality in Wikipedia. The redirects will allow people to use British English dates in auto-generated footnotes without creating red links. If you check you will note that such red links exist for most days in 2007, and for some dates in other years. They will proliferate in the future. I have asked the user who has made a false and hurtful attack on me for this constructive contribution to Wikipedia to make an unreserved apology to me. LukeHoC (talk) 17:08, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Even though to you your message was civil, to me it was extremely uncivil and the use of the word "please" rather patronising. As far as I am concerned, Rock Soldier is a sockpuppet. I even reported his disruptive edits to ANI, only to have administrators accuse me of actually being disruptive. My experience of admins is that most of them aren't that good in their job, and that's why I refrain from such places as the ones you named. I do not even know how to use them, or how they work.

Mika Edwards

Looks like I was wrong about Mika Edwards; she apparently does exist. The claim that she worked for the TV station was removed by an IP address, so that info might have been false. But the rest of the article might be legit. I kept and updated the prod tag because, in my opinion, she still isn't notable. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 02:01, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Re: Afghan-Americans

RE: Revert; no consensus to remove. Rjd0060 (talk) 04:56, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Well I am from Afghanistan myself and very familiar with the community in America. I know that Fariba Nawa is barely known, she is notable, but not known. If anyone disagrees, they would complain, but so far have not. If anyone disagrees, I will discuss it further with them on the talk page. KabuliTajik (talk) 04:48, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Also, that image is not PD, it is fair use and this usage is not fair use, it can only be used in her article. KabuliTajik (talk) 04:51, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
Yes, and wrongfully so. I know what I'm doing and I am more familiar with these people and how famous they are than you are, with all due respect. KabuliTajik (talk) 04:53, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
I am aware of concensus. There are only a few editors involved in this article and they will understand the reasoning of my edit. If not, they will object, I'll put it back then discuss. KabuliTajik (talk) 04:56, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

You are already aware that the image is up for deletion, so you should understand that it might as well be removed. Again, I was right about the image and you can read on up on her, do a Google search and you'll realize she is not famous. I was once a senior editor, so please have more faith in me.

Oos

You said: Hi. Please stop adding things to that page. The content you are adding is already covered at Web operating system, which is why Oos redirects to Web operating system. Thanks, Rjd0060 (talk) 16:57, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Oos is a specific web operating system like eyeOS or youOS. So please stop changing the link. Tank you. Azrael2004 (talk) 17:01, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Attack Vandalism

Sorry about that. Once I saw that it was already reverted, I tried to undo my revert, but you beat me to that, too. Jauerback (talk) 15:51, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

User:Whitsttable has been blocked because of the harassment. I wouldn't worry too much more about it. Jauerback (talk) 16:06, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
