Barnstar of Integrity
[edit]The Barnstar of Integrity | ||
Jéské Couriano, for having such a generous heart and mind by unblocking Blablaaa, (during his unjustified block by Nick-D that led to the AN report) you have shown me that you are an admin of integrity and honor -- a real genuine admin -- that believes in doing what's right. For that I present to you this barnstar. Sincerely, Caden. Caden cool 09:57, 22 April 2010 (UTC) |

Bunns 1775 unblock request
[edit]Now, hey there. He was being entirely polite with his requests, and his description of where he edits from and the IP similarity (firewall / common web gateway at the base) are entirely credible.
Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 19:00, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- However, he has no edits at all to article space. If you've been here almost 3 years and you haven't edited an article once, there's a good chance you're not interested in helping contribute to Wikipedia. Having said that, that was his fourth unblock request - generally, other admins revoke TP at the third one. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 19:03, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- That's a stupid rule and it needs to stop. If the user is not being disruptive with unblock requests, there is no need to revoke access.
- How was this account identified as a sock? "1775" is part of the Marine culture, so just the fact that they share 1775 and an IP address does not necessarily mean they are the same person.
- What harm is there in unblocking to see what happens? I am minded to give them a shot. –xenotalk 19:05, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- I see now - they were blocked after issuing an unblock-auto request. No wonder the number of new editors coming on board is dropping at a steady pace. On the 'three strikes, you're out', I've initiated a thread: Wikipedia talk:Blocking policy#Unwritten rule regarding a limit to number of unblock requests should be stricken_from_the_unwritten_code –xenotalk 19:23, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- If you decide to unblock, I won't have any objections. However, I still hold serious reservations about the account since his only edits since he registered in 2007 were to his own userspace. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 19:27, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- Pops1775 is a brand new account with a proclivity to call everyone a douche. Bunns1775 is a years-old account that has never done anything wrong, and disclosed their real name and rank. What makes you think they are the same? –xenotalk 19:29, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- My decline wasn't based upon sockpuppetry, and nor was my comment above. My concerns are that he doesn't intend to contribute to Wikipedia. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 19:30, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- How are you able to divine his intent? What possible benefit is there to keeping him blocked? I think you've perhaps become too jaded to handle unblock requests if this is the way you are going to handle individuals who have been erroneously blocked, who have never done anything wrong, and who say they want to start contributing constructively. –xenotalk 19:32, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- sigh You know what, Xeno? I am very jaded. I'm getting tired of the constant kvetching over petty differences and the constant abuse from not only those whom are blocked, but by those who bypass their blocks with dynamic IPs or CrackBerries. I'm tired of vandals getting a free pass simply because they know how to fuck with their routers or tether. I'm very tired of it. I've been getting steadily more and more tired of it since JI Hawkins reared his ugly head, and I'm starting to lose it. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 19:39, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- I know the feeling, but try to limit the collateral damage. And please forgive my bluntness, I just cringe when I see potential constructive contributors get driven off or near-to. Burnout will eventually turn this place into a ghost town if we don't welcome and encourage fresh meat. –xenotalk 19:41, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- Anything I say in re welcoming and encouraging fresh meat will be overtly political, so I'll not respond to that. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 19:47, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

FWIW, my original decline to the autoblock-ip was intended to be just that. Similarity in the usernames was enough to have him sit out the remaining hours of the 24hour autoblock, especially with the oddness that an account that had registered in 2007 had only on this day decided to edit and found out he couldn't. After the autoblock was up, his account could stand and fall on its own merits. Other people took it from there, and I note that jpgordon did some tidying on the user's talkpage at one point. While I don't expect people with checkuser (as jpgordon does, IIRC) to run checks on random things, I would think that he would have at least done a driveby checkuser when tidying up unblock requests on a page tagged as a sock (or also concluded that it was business as usual and therefore no need to CU).

[edit]Since you must have just used the e-mail option, I won't need to place a {{helpme}}

Thanks
[edit]Thanks for your prompt action at AN/I and on behalf of NawlinWiki; as you gathered, I wasn't sure what to do but it's clear that you did. Two questions: is there any policy of which I should have been aware that governs this situation, and what (if anything) needs to happen to notify NawlinWiki? Accounting4Taste:talk 17:11, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- NawlinWiki is offline, else he'd have reverted it himself. Policy-wise, I'd rather not discuss it on-wiki... Check your inbox. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 17:16, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
about my unblock request
[edit]then that should amount to wiki hounding and war editing on my page, isnt it. my page is being regularly edited and i am being given warnings for no-issues and discussable matters. it is a persistent effort to get me blocked without hearing me.
Tej smiles (talk) 17:15, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
- But it isn't a block. Do not use an unblock request unless you are actually blocked, and do not request administrator help to quash what appears to be a legitimate discussion about content (as administrators aren't permitted to take a side in content disputes). —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 17:19, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
well the party is out of ammunition for discussion here. is not giving logical arguments. even after this what if i am blocked following two warnings. it isnt fair if that happens. anyway thanks for the help, i appreciate it.

Sureños
[edit]Do you mind unlocking the Sureños article? The article hasn't had excessive vandalism. Once a month or so, someone might deface the page. The majority of the time, it's just someone adding unreferenced content. I keep an eye on the article, and make revisions once a week or as needed. I don't really see where it warranted locking.
Someone has removed sourced content from the article before you locked it, and now I can't restore the information. So it would be a plus if you could unlock the article. 74.248.93.214 (talk) 08:25, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
- Baloney. The history's showing more IP vandalism than what you're making it out to be. My recommendation is to point out the diff where the information was removed; I'll restore it for you. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 16:45, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Faethon Ghost
[edit]I think you're right about it being a compromised account. I don't know if you saw this, but check here. Enigmamsg 21:24, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
- I did not, but I noticed a very stark discrepancy between later edits and older ones, which led me to believe the account had been compromised. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 22:18, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
- Apparently, the account originator believes in "guest accounts" and creates them and publishes the passwords. Of course, before long, some vandal gets ahold of the account. No way of knowing how many times he's done this... Enigmamsg 22:23, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
- Has anyone bothered to point him to m:Role account? This isn't an en.wp issue, last I recalled, it's a legal issue due to licensing. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 22:25, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
- I don't know and I also don't know how you could reach the guy except maybe if he has e-mail enabled. Enigmamsg 22:33, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- The problem is that the likelihood that he's made a new role account is high. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 22:35, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'm sure he'd created more than one account when you said that stuff on his userpage a while back. No way to know how many accounts he opened. I guess checkuser wouldn't be of use here because it would be stale as far as the original operator goes. Enigmamsg 23:20, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- Checkuser may not peg the original operator, but it would more than likely detect other accounts created since Faethon; we're well within the range from CU cradle to /dev/null. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 00:39, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Possible new look for The Signpost arbitration report
[edit]Hi Jéské
You may be aware that there is a discussion about making improvements to the layout of The Signpost. I'm writing to you and User:Ncmvocalist initially to ask what you think about the idea of using the ArbCom logo at the top of the Arbitration Report page. Roger Davies, the Coordinating Arbitrator, was very positive about this; but of course, you guys are the writers, so please, can you let me know whether you wish me to proceed to the next stage and ask Ragesoss and others whether they approve? Here's what I had in mind, which removes the duplicated words "Arbitration Report", too.
Cheers, Tony (talk) 11:24, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Jéské. My initial thoughts are here, but I'd like to see what you think before saying much beyond that. Cheers, Ncmvocalist (talk) 13:28, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- Initial thoughts I don't disagree with; one could always take use the scales icon in the middle, alone, without the blue text. Just a thought. Tony (talk) 14:16, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- I share a bit of the same concerns as Ncmvocalist. For one, I don't intend to turn the Arb report into a surrogate noticeboard, and having the balance at the top gives the impression that the content of the page is endorsed by the Committee. (In fact, I've had an arb complain about my wording; I've since worked his changes into my text.) For two, I don't see the addition of the scales as necessary to understand that it's this week's T.R.O.L.L., especially since "Arbitration Report", in big letters, is present both in the page title and right at the top of the page. Finally, as Ncmvocalist notes, my selection of what to cover is generally restricted to the important stuff - cases, motions, resignations, etc. Note that I've deliberately glossed over April's BASC statistics release because, to put it bluntly, most readers aren't going to care overmuch about the internal processes of the Committee; what the Committee decides upon will often alter the scope of their editing. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 16:27, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- Fine, no problems; except I took exception to your blunt, single-word edit summary of "No". It's a brush-off that is totally inappropriate. Tony (talk) 16:36, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- Apologies, blunt and to-the-point is more my writing style. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 16:38, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

???
[edit]While I do agree that moving the goalposts should never be done, the issue is that Oversight and CU are ultimately necessary jobs that should never be politicized
Unsure what that means?
Should never be done? Then don't do it!
Should never be politicized? Changing the election rules after the election is very much what a politician would want to do.
This is not an attack on you but just a note that what you write is confusing. Suomi Finland 2009 (talk) 21:44, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
- The fact that we even had a private election instead of consensus-gathering is evidence that the CU/OS positions are being increasingly politicized. There is nothing contradictory in my statement above - the moment those jobs are corrupted by Wikipedia's political processes, the moment their reliability is reduced. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 03:18, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

[edit]My Request: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Edit_filter#My_tests —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cit helper (talk • contribs) 20:11, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
An Arbitration request in which you are involved has been opened, and is located here. Please add any evidence you wish the Arbitrators to consider to the evidence sub-page, Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Climate change/Evidence. You may also contribute to the case on the workshop sub-page, Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Climate change/Workshop.
Additionally, please note that for this case specific procedural guidelines have been stipulated; if you have any questions please ask. The full outline is listed on the Evidence and Workshop pages, but please adhere to the basics:
- The issues raised in the "Sock Puppet Standards of Evidence" and "Stephen Schultz and Lar" requests may be raised and addressed in evidence in this case if (but only if) they have not been resolved by other means.
- Preparation of a formal list of "parties to the case" will not be required.
- Within five days from the opening of the case, participants are asked to provide a listing of the sub-issues that they believe should be addressed in the committee's decision. This should be done in a section of the Workshop page designated for that purpose. Each issue should be set forth as a one-sentence, neutrally worded question—for example:
- "Should User:X be sanctioned for tendentious editing on Article:Y"?
- "Has User:Foo made personal attacks on editors of Article:Z?"
- "Did Administrator:Bar violate the ABC policy on (date)?"
- "Should the current community probation on Global Warming articles by modified by (suggested change)?"
- The committee will not be obliged to address all the identified sub-issues in its decision, but having the questions identified should help focus the evidence and workshop proposals.
- All evidence should be posted within 15 days from the opening of the case. The drafters will seek to move the case to arbitrator workshop proposals and/or a proposed decision within a reasonable time thereafter, bearing in mind the need for the committee to examine what will presumably be a very considerable body of evidence.
- Participants are urgently requested to keep their evidence and workshop proposals as concise as reasonably possible.
- The length limitation on evidence submissions is to be enforced in a flexible manner to maximize the value of each user's evidence to the arbitrators. Users who submit overlength diatribes or repetitious presentations will be asked by the clerks to pare them. On the other hand, the word limit should preferably not be enforced in a way that hampers the reader's ability to evaluate the evidence.
- All participants are expected to abide by the general guideline for Conduct on arbitration pages, which states:
- Incivility, personal attacks, and strident rhetoric should be avoided in Arbitration as in all other areas of Wikipedia.
- Until this case is decided, the existing community sanctions and procedures for Climate change and Global warming articles remain in full effect, and editors on these articles are expected to be on their best behavior.
- Any arbitrator, clerk, or other uninvolved administrator is authorized to block, page-ban, or otherwise appropriately sanction any participant in this case whose conduct on the case pages departs repeatedly or severely from appropriate standards of decorum. Except in truly egregious cases, a warning will first be given with a citation to this notice. (Hopefully, it will never be necessary to invoke this paragraph.)
On behalf of the Arbitration Committee, ~ Amory (u • t • c) 00:36, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
FR Drama
[edit]It has become painfully clear to me that there is no longer any form of legitimate protest on Wikipedia. Administrators apparently cannot issue self-requested blocks without having another user threatening the admin in emails he or she sends to the blockee. It is with great regret, therefore, that I hereby request my own community ban from the project for the crime of blocking myself to protest FlaggedRevisions. —Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 21:17, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

self block
[edit]Self blocking is not supposed to happen. However, legal threats can result in a block. If you e-mail me (you blocked yourself so that you can't edit your talk page but you did not block e-mail) with the following text, I will submit it on your behalf.
"I hereby threaten to sue you for trying to help me on my Wikipedia talk page. This threat is effective until 15 June 2011. Even though I don't really plan to sue you, I still make this statement". You may say 2012, if you wish.
Also, I see that you disabled autoblock which means you are technically able to edit using your sockpuppets. Suomi Finland 2009 (talk) 15:09, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

[edit]It seems Wikipedia is carrying on with flagged revisions. The good news is that the first article it was used on is a former semi-protected page. I'll be okay as long as they don't put it on unprotected pages. mechamind90 22:48, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Welcome back.
[edit]Better than heroin, perhaps, and as addictive and a lot cheaper. Pending Revisions is so slow that you might want to consider doing what I have done; simply unwatch those articles. That way, you can get on with what you consider to be the best use of your time here.

[edit]Jéské, seeing as you are choosing to continue to be disruptive by continually unblocking and blocking yourself, I have put an end to the cycle. We will let ArbCom take this from here. Tiptoety talk 00:29, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- I have sent an email to ArbCom. I assume someone will be contacting you soon. Tiptoety talk 00:40, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
As promised
[edit]Hello, Jeske. Further to our private discussion tonight, I have added your name to the "exceptions" list of editors who do not want to be granted Reviewer permissions.[1] Thank you for taking the time to speak with me. I have also, as we discussed, lifted your block (after conferring with Tiptoety), and removed your edit filter manager permission, at your request. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with. Best, Risker (talk) 04:05, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
I thought you should know
[edit]Hello Jéské Couriano. As the admin who unblocked User:Blablaaa (in April) according to community consensus, you may be interested in this discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators, under the section "Testing the water". Could you share your thoughts? I believe your input could be helpful. Just so you know, another admin (User:TomStar81) was not honest in regards to your unblock. Thanks. Caden cool 05:18, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

A quick note
[edit]I had originally planned to not edit Wikipedia for the duration of the trial. However, recent events have put too much stress on me for this to be possible, and, for my own sanity and destressing purposes, I can't continue to avoid Wikipedia.

- Dude, what happened? Is everything OK? I saw that you say you were desysopped...? BOZ (talk) 12:03, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
- I was, on July 11th. I'm not willing to go into why I was deopped, except to say (1) I asked for it and (2) I will need an RfA to reclaim the tools. —Jeremy (v^_^v Carl Johnson) 18:34, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

- I see enough clues on your talk page to get what I think is a good enough idea of what happened and where you are coming from - clearly it's a sensitive enough topic that I'll respect your desire to leave it alone. Meanwhile, I'm glad that although you resigned the mop, that you're still around (for now at least) - I always liked you! BOZ (talk) 02:15, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
- Allow me to assure you that whatever you think is a "good enough idea" is missing half the information. —Jeremy (v^_^v Carl Johnson) 02:33, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
- I mean a good enough of an idea to see that it's a sensitive topic that you'd rather not discuss - I respect that, and don't really need to be filled in on the rest. Given the subject matter that you appear to be referring to, I know that it is a controversial topic that I have my own opinions on. BOZ (talk) 02:42, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Looks like we were talking past each other there. My offer for the EF right was based on the assumption that the EF got the first crack at edits. If it still needs a tweak, the offer is still good, but I've semi-ed the page. Cheers! TNXMan 03:38, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- It's been a while since I have held admin rights, but for the most part I would rather the clowns supporting PC practice as they preach and deal with him themselves. —Jeremy (v^_^v Carl Johnson) 03:39, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Anyway, hopefully this issue is resolved. On a side note, were you heavily involved with the EF? I occasionally run into questions about it and I only know of a few people I can
botherask when something comes up. TNXMan 03:43, 22 August 2010 (UTC)- Not very heavily. I mainly edited filters regarding User:JI Hawkins and Grawp. —Jeremy (v^_^v Carl Johnson) 03:45, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- Gotcha. Thanks for the assist. TNXMan 03:46, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- Alright. I'm trying to figure out on IRC if NawlinWiki amended the filter to catch the edits on his talk page; he's been getting far more extreme as of late. But I'm getting the impression that NawlinWiki added a rule to bust this specific defamatory content, so you may want to look into it. I don't have a filter number; sorry. —Jeremy (v^_^v Carl Johnson) 03:48, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- Near as I can tell, it looks like filter 58. People were banging on the door for a couple of hours, but didn't get anywhere (except blocked). The last tweak was yesterday, so maybe that caught most of it. TNXMan 03:58, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

6 - 4
[edit]is sixty six point six percent. Off2riorob (talk) 19:32, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
from every 60 you only need 40 objectors, it is not 60 percent at all. Off2riorob (talk) 19:32, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
That is actually quite a fair percentage, less than sixty six point six percent approval and the tool is not continued. What percentage of support do think is needed? Off2riorob (talk) 19:34, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- No, it's 60%. 6 out of 10 people accepting is 60%. Now stop powerposting. —Jeremy (v^_^v PC/VC is a show-trial!) 19:35, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
This is 6 - 4... not six out of ten, 6 - 4 = sixty six point six percent, try asking a friend, I assure you its correct. Off2riorob (talk) 19:41, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- No, "six-and-four" is not 66.6%. It's 60%. You do not subtract the lesser number from the larger to determine percentage; that's incredibly bad mathematics. —Jeremy (v^_^v PC/VC is a show-trial!) 19:42, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Please ask a friend. Off2riorob (talk) 19:58, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- I will guarantee you my friend will say that that's 60%, not 66%. —Jeremy (v^_^v PC/VC is a show-trial!) 19:59, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- If you mean two thirds, then say 2/3rds, 4/6 is equally acceptable. Saying 6-4 is saying 6 chose A and 4 chose B. Q T C 20:05, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Hey
[edit]Our disagreement on pending changes notwithstanding to this posting, just be careful when replying to posts on a talk page, such as with this edit. You placed your comment between my comment and the one that I was replying to, which had the negative effect of making it look like I supported your comment, which I did not know even existed. Since my comment is the first comment, I have restored it immediately following what I was replying to and placed yours second per normal talk page format. Cheers!

[edit]Hi there,
Regarding this edit: I don't mean to say you are right or wrong, but this is apparently what Twinkle does. Sorry if it caused any inconvenience. Regards, Skysmurf (talk) 21:50, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
- This is the first I've ever seen a Wrinkle install do that, actually. —Jeremy (v^_^v PC/SP is a show-trial!) 21:51, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
- Well, to be honest I noticed this before but nobody complained so far. But in any case, I simply filled out the required fields and apparently this is how Twinkle handles it. I can ask about this at the Village Pump or the Twinkle talk page if you think I should. Regards, Skysmurf (talk) 21:59, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

- "I Can defend myself, can you???."[sic] and "You are just an IP user. I am a reviewer" are not "warnings". If they are warnings, then so is brandishing a club and gesturing towards someone's head. —Jeremy (v^_^v Hyper Combo K.O.!) 08:04, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Protection Policy
[edit]The relevant policy is WP:Protection policy. I feel I should point out, however, that what is on that page should at best be taken as a rough guideline - not too many cases are so cut and dried as to guarantee a specific protection level, and most times it ultimately comes down to the protecting administrator's discretion. —Jeremy (v^_^v Hyper Combo K.O.!) 08:51, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
- Can you send me a link to the policy that explains the actual reason why my request was rejected? The link you sent me was to the policy page itself, which I assume was a mistake because it doesn't provide any sort of answer to my question. I had read that before making the request, of course. What page did you mean to link? I'm curious what specific policy was used to reject the request. I understand that the admin's discretion is a big part of it, but getting some reason why the request was would rejected would help me understand why the request was rejected. Thanks! Kuguar03 (talk) 09:05, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
- I linked you to the protection policy deliberately. In cases where there's IPs bothering an article, it varies from admin to admin which is an appropriate level of vandalism to prot for (in other words, admin discretion). Some admins will prot for sustained long-term vandalism (particularly if biographical concerns are involved); others will only prot if they're seeing massive amounts of vandalism in a short amount of time. There's no "magic bullet" anywhere in policy, I'm afraid. —Jeremy (v^_^v Hyper Combo K.O.!) 09:10, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Deleting ANI Reports
[edit]If you're going to outright delete someone's ANI, it might be nice to at least drop me a line on my talk page to let you know you outright zapped it. After all, we're all just trying to build a better encyclopedia. WCityMike 02:07, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
- I generally only outright remove ANIs for two reasons - Either they're requests for oversight misconstrued as requests for revision deletion, or they unwittingly feed a particularly virulent user. Yours fell in the first instance. —Jeremy (v^_^v Hyper Combo K.O.!) 02:18, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, but under the premise of not biting people who unwittingly make a simple mistake, what I'm saying is that, when you do this, it might at least be nice to let people know you outright deleted their request and they put it in the wrong place. If I hadn't spent the time to search through WP:ANI's rather huge history to find out where the heck my request had gone, then the situation would've remained unaddressed and unrectified.

- As I had been responding in other places, including his talk page, about the award, that means that I had seen it on my talk page already. Thus, if I wanted it removed, don't you think I would have done it myself? SilverserenC 22:21, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
- I was not aware you were discussing it, actually.

- Okay, I was just wanted to find out why and let you know that i've reverted you on my talk page. I don't know about other people, but I don't like removal of stuff from my talk page by others, no matter what it is. If I want something removed, i'll do it myself. Thanks anyways.

- As I had been responding in other places, including his talk page, about the award, that means that I had seen it on my talk page already. Thus, if I wanted it removed, don't you think I would have done it myself? SilverserenC 22:21, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Eventhough MrMan's edit was downright silly was it not my prerogative to do what I felt like, unless you had a good reason for doing what you did?Yogesh Khandke (talk) 14:49, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
- The reason I had was that it was a mass-spammed sexist award. Now, since this is the second section made about this in spite of the megathread above, anyone coming on here to complain about me reverting MrMan's "manliness award" needs to stop making a new thread about it and merge their complaint into the megathread. —Jeremy (v^_^v Hyper Combo K.O.!) 22:09, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
Regarding the ongoing Pending Changes discussion.
[edit]Hi, I'm a relatively new editor. I noticed your endorsement here and thought it seemed mighty cynical. I'd appreciate your time in talking to me about what makes you feel this way. I'm hoping to stick around at WP for a while and want to know what I'm up against. Thanks, Cliff (talk) 22:23, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
- In general, and certainly for the almost three years I was an administrator (10/2007 - 07/2010), Wikipedia is filled primarily with users who have very entrenched points of view about a topic or a series of topics or whom are overzealous about fighting vandals to the exclusion of all else. (I used to fall in the latter category; nowadays I'm just *zealous* about fighting vandals.) These entrenched points of view make editing in many topic areas an exercise in Vogonian tactics, and the overzealous tend to see vandalism where none exists.
- There are several safe areas on Wikipedia, yes - but odds are if you're primarily working in an antivandal role or in a topic area where edit warring and fruitless arguments are endemic (such as, for example, any topic area mentioned (or derived from those mentioned) in this list) you're going to end up becoming quickly disillusioned by the constant bickering, the seeming uselessness of it all... It's not an easy task, being an editor. And I, frankly, don't trust my fellow editor in what amounts to a censorship role. —Jeremy (v^_^v Hyper Combo K.O.!) 02:38, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Regarding your comment at the ArbCom case
[edit]Hey. I know you're frustrated about the Pending Changes thing..but just some thoughts. First off, I think you let your frustration run a little wild on you at the end, and the end result was that it actually lessened the impact of what you were trying to say. Also, I would say that it's definitely not a one way street.. I'd look at some of the comments made at Brad in his close of the PC RfC phase.. it seemed a little.. ungrateful that they ask him to close as he is seen as "above the fray", so to speak, and well respected by all sides, then to basically turn on him and basically attack him when he doesn't 100% go with those who wanted PC to go away and never darken the doorstep again.
Anyway, I know this is frustrating, but I thought just to touch base with you and give you my thoughts. Have a good one. SirFozzie (talk) 03:58, 22 May 2011 (UTC)
- You're referring to the parts I omitted? I was about ready to go into a rant about why BLP crusaders (myself, to a degree, included) ultimately gave themselves this self-inflicted wound by being excessively for the celebrities at the expense of viewing the rest of the encyclopedia as fuel for Nero. It wouldn't have been germane to the main issue for me to include the rant, so I instead opted to omit it. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 04:02, 22 May 2011 (UTC)
Request
[edit]Hi Jeske,
Thanks for your hard work. Can I ask that you not remove things like this which attempt to report as a whistleblowing activity? There's no way you would know that shouldn't be removed, because I didn't have anything posted... but for future reference, any time that someone is attempting to report to a Foundation staff member, we would not want it to be removed. Again, no way you would know that because I hadn't had the situation come up... Thanks! Philippe Beaudette, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 02:14, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
Actually, this was discussed on AN/I and on Jimbo's talk page after that user filed a frivolous request for Arbitration, and it was determined the user is a sockpuppet of some sort. I don't recall whom, off the top of my head, but give me a moment and I'll link you to the relevant threads.—Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 03:45, 16 June 2011 (UTC)- According to the user page of Parentsp (talk · contribs), whom Parentsp2 is listed as a sock of, it's Dereks1x (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), who's a persistent, if erratic in activity, banned user here on en.wp. Fram (talk · contribs) removed similar posts from Jimbo's talk page ([2]). Looking over RfArb's history, Parentsp (no number at the end) did file an RfArb; it's standard fuck-tha-police anti-anti-vandalism screeds. I can't find any AN/I posts, AN posts, or Jimbo Wales user talk page threads wrt this user however. You may ultimately have better luck contacting oversighters. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 04:06, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
RE: Deny
[edit]Well, to each his own. The main reasons I don't care about the hivemind seeing recognition is that they have a very short, collective attention span. When one vandal is denied access, he may get angry and try again; when a dozen of them see their efforts thwarted, they adopt an attitude along the lines of, "let's give up and move somewhere else" (which is what happened earlier today). My post was just to inform others of current happenings. m.o.p 03:59, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
