London Action Resource Centre

Hi Chaseme, Back in 2009 you protected the London Action Resource Centre page, reason given "Protected London Action Resource Centre: Full protection: vandalism, POV blanking, poor references, and attempts to insert poorly referenced allegations of fascism." Unfortunately the vandalism continued, and now there is again an edit war over the same information being added. Have you got any advice on how to stop this happening? I find it quite frustrating to deal with vandals. I tried Dispute Resolution, but the case was immediately closed, reason given "the parties have not extensively discussed the issue on a talk page", which struck me as quite bizarre! Thanks for any help! Mujinga (talk) 12:44, 18 December 2015 (UTC)

Six years is rather too long for me to remember helping, I'm afraid, and I live in the area now so it's not OK for me to get involved really! If it's obvious vandalism, try WP:RFPP or WP:ANI. If it's more "people being difficult", try getting a third opinion :-) Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (Message me) 18:06, 19 December 2015 (UTC)

thanks for the response! Mujinga (talk) 19:44, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Plygain has been nominated for Did You Know

Hello, Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry. Plygain, an article you either created or significantly contributed to, has been nominated to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page as part of Did you know. You can see the hook and the discussion here. You are welcome to participate! Thank you. APersonBot (talk!) 02:32, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

DYK for Plygain

On 25 December 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Plygain, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in Wales, there is one Christmas carol that is traditionally sung only by men? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Plygain. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Plygain

		The Wales Barnstar
		Just spotted your DYK for Plygain. I took a look and all I can say is ...simply wonderful. Diolch. FruitMonkey (talk) 21:42, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

Thank you! I am in mid-Wales at the moment in the family farmhouse. Still have a lot of things to learn but it's much better than London! The article itself is in large part translated from the Welsh article, but with added references and a bit more content. Did you see fellow Wikipedian Llewellyn2000 (talk · contribs) in the videos? He deserves a fair amount of credit! Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (Message me) 00:42, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
