June 2013

Hello, I'm Lukeno94. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Jeremy Spencer that didn't seem very civil. Wikipedia needs people like you and me to collaborate, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:09, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jeremy Spencer

Yeah, that guy seemed to have some kind of older beef with me or someone – an IP who's only been editing for a few days but seemed to know all about policies and conventions. I noticed he'd reverted three times, and I alerted an admin on the 4th revert. After he called me stupid, I figured it was the least I could do ;) Cheers, Bretonbanquet (talk) 20:51, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sallie Parker/Jonathan Yip

User:Sallieparker's block is going to be lifted, did you say? Also, my mother's name was never mentioned onwiki as far as I know, since 2005. I don't get it. Quis separabit? 00:22, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Did you see it? If so, I'd save it and send it to an univolved admin. Alison might be a good choice - she blocked me with the quickness. I don't know where she knows you from or where she got it (or how she's getting away with doxing you like that). It would seem like she's doing more than just trolling. She seems unhinged (I even admitted I was the one who imitated her).

I thought she was just a loudmouth bigot... I didn't think she was bonkers. I don't know why an admin hasn't blanked it yet. In any case, I am sorry. CongerEelSolo (talk) 00:31, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for what? I appreciate your words of support but I don't get what's going on. What does I don't know where she knows you from or where she got it (or how she's getting away with doxing you like that) mean?? I thought Jonathan Yip is a guy. I really am confused. Quis separabit? 01:46, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry for imitating Sallieparker and making what would probably just be an NPA issue into, well, this. She's the she I'm referring to. Sallieparker and Jonathan Yip are two different entities. I'm going to get myself blocked as a sock by doing this, but I think an SPI might be called for. Writ Keeper probably can fill you in on more of it. I even told a blocking admin that I was NYFinanceGal and that it was an attempt to get Sallieparker indeffed (I felt guilty about it). CongerEelSolo (talk) 01:55, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well if you had good intentions I hope any such block is limited in nature and takes into consideration your motivations. Yours, Quis separabit? 02:13, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I, in good conscience, can't say that she isn't allowed a second chance. I was given a second chance, so I can't say she shouldn't get one. I never threatened anybody, but my language on the other hand on occasion was , well ......... So if an admin decides to unban/unblock her, so be it. BTW: Who is MITBacon, who also used threatening language? Quis separabit? 02:22, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

On her talk page, Sallieparker mentioned a couple of usernames she'd use if she wasn't unblocked. These included SJParker (I think), and MITBacon. SJParker was taken, so I registered MITBacon before she could. What was written at the ANI was mostly cut and pasted from her talk page (I only altered some of the wording to make it fit an ANI). I thought I'd be pegged as a Sallieparker sock and both of us would be banned. It was wrong of me and I should have (if I was more mature, I probably would have) let the system take care of it. As I said, I meant no threat. CongerEelSolo (talk) 02:33, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I also contacted the Admin who blocked the other Yips. I asked him/her to run a CU and clear the parts of the talk page that might be worrisome. CongerEelSolo (talk) 02:33, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As predicted, I've blocked this account; socking is socking, no matter the reason, and impersonation of others just ain't cool, no matter how you slice it. For the record, I was never convinced that NYFinanceGal was Sallieparker, but it hardly matters with respect to the block, as there are any number of reasons that they could have been blocked. As far as the unblock goes, I wouldn't be too worried about it; the only reason I haven't declined it myself is that Sallieparker would probably then start whinging about WP:INVOLVED or some such; I very much doubt it will ever get accepted. RMS: at a quick glance, I didn't see anything outing-wise other than a suposed real name, which I was under the impression you revealed onwiki previously, making it not really outing. If I'm mistaken, I apologize; feel free to contact me via email or--preferably--go straight to requests for oversight and have them take a look; they respond quickly in my experience. Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 02:39, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No my name is out there. When I registered it was accepted to use an email address as a username. I was concerned about my mother's name (Anita), which to my knowledge was never mentioned onwiki before. Yours, Quis separabit? 02:51, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've done enough harm. There really isn't any point in trolling (between the volunteers and such-it's almost a million against one). I'll decline the usual bargain (I'm not sure it would apply to me anyhow) and return to reading it when I need a quick answer or ref. Jonathan Yip is done. Fini. CongerEelSolo (talk) 02:48, 20 June 2013 (UTC) aka Jonathan Yip[reply]

Nonetheless, as far as CongerEelSolo is concerned I hope he will at some point get a second chance if he requests one, given his honesty and good intentions, albeit poorly considered execution of same. Quis separabit? 21:05, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
