Deletion of the Cats and Cats and Cats page

Hi Jac16888,

You recently deleted the Cats and Cats and Cats page that the user Osario had made. I'm not asking to have it reinstated as it had become a bit of a joke, as I'm no doubt sure you were aware (hence the deletion). I was just wondering if you were able to make a copy of it, I'd grown quite fond of it and would like to put it up on our site?

Many thanks,

Unhelpful

Hey Jac16888. The dust seems to be settling on Uboater, but I did notice your decline here. I've got to say, I was quite astounded at how sarcastic it was, along with hints of legal threats. Yes, he deserved to be blocked and indeffed, but as an admin that was really a terrible block review. Remember the whole "admins should hold themselves to a higher standard" thing?

Oh blah, yes I know I was very mean to the guy going around calling people cunts and threatening physical harm and it was very naughty of me and I shouldn't have done it etc etc--Jac16888 Talk 15:29, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
Yes yes, it pales in comparison to what he did, but there was no need for it. If you hadn't escalated the situation, it could have plausibly been de-escalated. Assuming that he is who he says he is, you've just closed the door to him on any possible complaint about an article he's got a vested interest in, leaving him with no course of action but a legal one. Assuming he isn't who he says he is, you've been wound up by an internet troll, who will target you for shits and giggles in the future. Your actions have consequences, you speak for the community. Try and keep that in mind. WormTT(talk) 15:39, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
Alright I know, you are right I did cross the line. Although for the record I don't think someone who makes a comment like http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AUboater&diff=497064721&oldid=497063802 that] really requires provoking--Jac16888 Talk 16:01, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

Could you take a look at the Sarah Bakewell article? I've tried to clean it up but the author (who probably has a COI) keeps re-introducing promotional material and unsourced jargon. I've tried to communicate but they're not responding. Could you please protect/revert/warn/block as appropriate? Thanks Basalisk inspect damageberate 15:58, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

RE bolcking

I have seen you discovered the person who tried to delte me. I am newish to wikipiedia and not shure of all the rules I had a look at some of them and under the user block policy a user should be blocked if "personal information disclosures (whether or not the information is accurate or not)" On Bretherickacey's user page he states his fall name and date of birth furthermore he is under eighteen and at risk to those without good intenions. I thought I'd just bring these factors to light to make sure Bretherickacey is not at risk or braking any wikipedia rules. Thank-you, --Joeb20122012 (talk) 19:52, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Dear Sir/Madam,

I recently added an article on this topic and I would like to express my dissatisfaction with the fact that You removed it. I do not agree that I have violated rule R10 ((A10: Recently created article that duplicates an existing topic, Exchange-traded fund)). It is true that I have used the information from it, but my article is 100% unique.

Please, reconsider this case.

Faithfully Yours,

Nikoletta Ven — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nikoletta Ven (talkcontribs) 13:01, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

A), your article was about the same subject, if you want to write about Exchange-traded fund's, do so on the already existing article. B), your article was in Russian. This is the English wikipedia, i.e. English content, the Russian wikipedia can be found here--Jac16888 Talk 13:08, 19 June 2012 (UTC)


Oh, this is such a misunderstanding. The language is Bulgarian and I wanted to add the article into the Bulgarian version of Wikipedia. Is this still possible? Could You please tell me where/how to submit the article so it does not violate the rules and in the same time can be submitted in Bulgarian? Thanks in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nikoletta Ven (talkcontribs) 13:32, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

What's your problem with this article? Now you nominated it for deletion. If it's a Flash game, it doesn't need a Wikipedia article no matter how influential and popular it is right now? Wow, you must rethink your life.

Also, your remark, "rm massive gameguide section, utter garbage and does not belong here" is really cruel.

The "John Tummolo" wikipedia page evidencing the inventor of, "Facebook" patent applications (60/482,805 dated June 26, 2003; and 887,207/10 dated June 26, 2004;) was just deleted by you, Jac. YOU censored facts although the page cited scholarly resources: THE US GOVERNMENT'S PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE. Who are you? Who gives you the right to arbitrarily decide "revisionist facts" and "deliberate omissions of facts"? What country are you operating out of Jac?

Kindly explain why facts upset you, "Jac". Please... explain yourself. <Article content removed> — Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.78.4.18 (talk) 17:28, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Sources, you need them, proper ones that fully support your story, and since there are no news articles about you sueing Facebook or being awarded millions of dollars I'd say it's a safe bet they don't exist, and I can't find any.

Retore the John Tummolo article. It is supported by references to verifiable PATENT APPLICATIONS!!!!! urgggggg.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.78.4.18 (talk) 19:04, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)I didn't have a long look at the article before it was deleted, so I can't talk with too much authority about this, but as I remember, the patent is only usable to cite the existence of the patent. For all the rest (suing Facebook, payoffs, patent infringement, etc.) you need a reliable source that actually talks specifically about those things; they cannot just be synthesized from the patent. Writ Keeper 19:09, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
What writ said. The only evidence you have is a patent application number, no actual patent or anything verifiable, and the fact is that if you had anything like that, you would be using it, not trying to rant about it on Wikipedia--Jac16888 Talk 19:14, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

THE FACT I FILED A PATENT APPLICATION REPRESENTS A DOCUMENT... A SCHOLARLY RESOURCE... THE FACT YOU ARE FIGHTING THIS FACT IS A CONSPIRACY. RESTORE THE ARTICLE AND IF ANYONE GETS UPSET... LET THEM PROOVE ME INCORRECT... BUT YOU ARE BEHAVING LIKE JUDGE AND JURY... AND YOU'RE ANONYMOUS... IT'S OFFENSIVE. NOW TELL THE TRUTH. EDIT THE CLIP TO YOUR LIKING... BUT PUBLISH THE FACTS REGARDING THE TWO PATENT APPLICATIONS. IF YOU DO NOT PUBLISH FACTS, YOU DISCREDIT WIKIPEDIA. IT BECOMES UNRELIABLE. IT'S YOUR CHOICE. THere's SO MUCH BS ON WIKIPEDIA IT'S AMAZING YOU"RE SO "PICKY" WHEN IT COMES TO A VERIFIABLE PATENT APPLICATION SUBMITTED IN 2003. YOU DON'T WANT THE TRUTH? — Preceding unsigned comment added by SourcePatent (talkcontribs) 12:35, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Firstly, stop shouting. Second, a patent application is not a patent, and I can find no way to use your application numbers to verify them. You have been told this repeatedly, and will continue to be told this, unless you can provide reliable sources to verify your claim, you cannot write about it, particularly considering you are accusing people of criminal behaviour without any proof. Go tell a newsgroup your story, if they believe you and they verify your claims and they write about it, then maybe you could have an article. Wikipedia is about verifiability, not truth and not about revealing conspiracies and exposing crimes--Jac16888 Talk 12:57, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Jac - Don't tell me how to conduct myself before a swine who denies fact. I filed TWO patent applications. Look them up NIMROD. YOU COWARD. YOU CENSOR. Your conduct is tantamount to harrassment. A patent application is a fact, verifiable, a fact. For you to decide "only if approved it becomes a fact" is dishonest. YOU COWARD. SWINE.

I now strongly advise you promote the content. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SourcePatent (talkcontribs) 18:43, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

I'm a nimrod, coward, censor and a swine? Lovely. I don't see how I can make this any clearer to you since you have been told it already many times, patent applications are not patents (and I did try to look them up, patent numbers are supposed to be 7 digits, the ones you have provided are 8 digits), nor do they in anyway verify your claims about criminal behaviour. Tell me this, if your claims are so solid and verifiable, why is there no mention of this "theft" on the internet? why have you not filed a lawsuit against Facebook to claim the money? Why are two patent application numbers the only proof you have? We're not going to post potentially libelous content about people without solid evidence to support it, you can rant at me as much as you like, it's not going to change the facts--Jac16888 Talk 20:22, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

username change and account activation

Hi Jac16888,

I am Palma Chatonnet-Marton a WikiProject Medicine Translation Task Force member.

Please find my name here: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Translation_task_force/People#Initial_languages

The reason why I contact you is to kindly help me in creating an active account under the name of "Palma Chatonnet-Marton".

When I begun to contribute to WikiMedicine Translation project, I did not know how exactly user account activation worked and by mistake I created two accounts: one named "Palmachatonnetmarton" and an other, which I am using actually: Palma Marton Chatonnet, but which I would like to change for Palma Chatonnet-Marton please. It is very important for us, translators to have these active accounts so as we can receive feedbacks from authors and I would really appreciate your quick help please.

I am sorry if I made too much hussle here :-), I did not understand quite well the system at the beginning.

If I can type the history in my own words, but still related to what is said on their website, would that be acceptable? If so, there is one problem.

If you're not able to translate it properly yourself, please don't attempt to do it, it won't really be helping. Wikipedia:Translation is the correct procedure for translating an article from another language wikipedia, and if your English is not up to scratch, perhaps you would be better off editing another language wikipedia, one you're more familiar with, see the list of them here--Jac16888 Talk 10:14, 1 July 2012 (UTC)

Deletion

This discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

Someone deleted <redacted> for reason G10, which states: " G10. Pages that disparage, threaten, intimidate or harass their subject or some other entity, and serve no other purpose. These "attack pages" may include libel, legal threats, material intended purely to harass or intimidate a person or biographical material about a living person that is entirely negative in tone and unsourced. These pages should be speedily deleted when there is no neutral version in the page history to revert to. Both the page title and page content may be taken into account in assessing an attack. Articles about living people deleted under this criterion should not be restored or recreated by any editor until the biographical article standards are met. "

Of course, anyone who had actually read the article would have known that there was no disparagement, no threats, no intimidation, no harassment in any way. There was no libel, only facts that have been reported on. No legal threats. No material intended purely (or even as a subsidiary motive) to harass or intimidate anyone. The article was not negative in tone, but neutral. The fact that the facts in question were negative, is not really the problem of the article, or you might go delete the Wikipedia page of Manuel Noriega. Neither the page title or the page content had any attack. 16888, you deleted the article for no reason at all. I urge you to immediately restore it. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 17:12, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Of course I read the article, which is how I know that it contained accusations of a serious crime with no evidence to back it up, i.e. libel. Since you appear to be on a crusade, I suggest you find somewhere else to do it, Wikipedia is not the place for it--Jac16888 Talk 18:50, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
Ah, so 'libel' is your problem. Unfortunately for you, there was a reference provided, a reputable news source (CBS) that underwrote the "accusations of a serious crime". Since your objection has been shown to be groundless, I request that you restore the article immediately. Thanks in advance. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 19:00, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
Also, I suggest that you refrain from accusations that individuals you don't even know are "on a crusade", or that they make serious accusations with no evidence to back them up (when there is evidence to back it up), as that is... libel. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 19:01, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
Yes, an article that gave no mention of the subjects of the article, and judging by your talkpage we only have your word that they are the perpatrators. Let me make this clear to you, perhaps you will take the hint. The only way your article could exist is if there were multiple reliable sources which verify everything the article is saying and which suggest notability of the subject. Terrible though the crimes may be, we can't exactly have articles about every single criminal out there--Jac16888 Talk 19:05, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
My word? Will you take the victim's word? Will you take the word of the attorneys of the perpetrators? That's multiple reliable sources right there. Also, it surprises me that you don't think the crime is notable, considering the many news reports there have been over the past few days. Most of them concern the bizarre nature of the perpetrator trying to punish the victim, which is the most interesting part to me. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 19:27, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
You keep coming back to this "the victim's word and the attorneys of the perpetrators word" the simple fact is that unless said word is given in a reliable source i.e. not on twitter, it's of no use here, and unless that changes there won't be an article about them. You can rail against that all you like, it won't change anything, Wikipedia is not going to report people as criminals without solid proof, end of story--Jac16888 Talk 19:32, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
I know that. Hell, Wikipedia won't even report people as criminals with solid proof. Not sure whether it's laudable or going too far. Your new standard is interesting, though. For example, if Barack Obama were to tweet something, or post something on Facebook, it does not count, but a personal e-mail from the campaign does count? Regardless, this isn't even about twitter. She tweeted something. Maybe it's unreliable. Maybe her account was hacked. Who knows? (We do, because she later confirmed what she did in reliable news sources.) But the attorneys confirmed it by accusing her of contempt of court for that post. And they did this in what you would have to admit are reliable news sources. This is like refusing to accept secret government documents, because they have been posted on Wikileaks - not a reliable source, perhaps - even... even, even when the government confirms their authenticity by moving to charge individuals under classification laws for posting those particular documents.
I understand that you may be defending arcane and technical rules that make little to no sense, and don't allow for anything to be posted, even with beyond reasonable doubt certainty, unless it's confirmed by a news outlet. It's difficult to run an encyclopedia. But even if you still think that under the rules, their names should not be posted, you'll have to admit that the evidence is absolutely solid. It's absolutely bizarre for you to say that I am demanding that you accept this on my say-so, when the evidence shows this to be as close to certain as one can be. It'd be more respectable if you said: "you know, your evidence is solid, but the rules simply don't allow for solid evidence when it's not from reliable news outlets". That's honest, and principled, and I would respect that. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 19:43, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
The whole point of what everybody is trying to tell you is that your evidence is not solid because it's not from a reliable source. Clearly you have some reason for wanting to make these two people known to the world, but Wikipedia is not the place for you to do it--Jac16888 Talk 19:52, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
What part of my evidence is not reliable? Can you point to the unreliable source? The victim? Twitter? News reports? The attorneys? Especially when all these sources agree with each other. I'm dying to know. If the victim is unreliable, then why did the attorneys for the perpetrators make such a fuss about it? Questions, questions. They are inconvenient, aren't they?
And once again, you close off with a completely nonsensical claim. For someone who complains about libel, you sure like to make unsubstantiated claims. And starting it off with "clearly" doesn't make it any more convincing. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 21:48, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
How many times do you have to be told that twitter is not a reliable enough source to call someone a criminal before you'll believe it? Anyway it's irrelevant, the article is gone, and if you recreate it without valid sources it will be deleted again, I have no interest in discussing this any further--Jac16888 Talk 21:51, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
Of course you don't, people without valid arguments seldom do. You appear confused about the difference between sources and media. Is the Twitter Inc., the company, calling someone a criminal? No, it's the victim. The victim is the source. Twitter is the medium. The victim could have used a paper as a medium. The source would not have differed, only the medium. Just like when I talk to you in person, I am the source, and thin air is the medium. It's like saying that "dead trees" aren't a reliable source, when it's a paper you are disputing. It's like saying that a piece of electronic equipment (a.k.a. a phone) is not a reliable source, when it's actually a medium. "How many times do you have to told that a piece of plastic emitting audible vibrations is not a reliable source???" This is really not that complicated. I am absolutely shocked that you need me to figure this out.
By the way, thank you for ceasing the mendacious and unsubstantiated suggestions you were making about my character and motivations. It
I think any intellectually honest observer can tell whether that is the case, and who is reasonable. Well, that would be the case, if you hadn't hidden the entire discussion. Just because you may feel embarrassed about your performance is no reason at all to hide this discussion, and to deny observers the opportunity to laugh at claims that media are actually sources. So I request that you remove the hide marker. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 16:22, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

The master decrees that the discussion be closed. The master's will be done, reason, argument and logic be damned, for they are not on the master's side. I see that you also decided to hide the discussion. Wise decision, from a Machiavellian point of view. You don't want people to see that you disgraced yourself by not even knowing the difference between a source and a medium. (By the way, a backlight is not "the source" of the current message.) But I have another, completely unrelated question. So then can you tell me where I can appeal your completely arbitrary decision (which you couldn't defend if your life depended on it), and file a complaint against your unfounded and unsubstantiated personal attacks on my character, made solely because of your inability to hold a proper discussion or come up with even a single argument that wasn't laughably poor? Thanks in advance. --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 13:57, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Deletion appeals can be made at deletion review. I'd advise you that it's a waste of time, as your arguments will be given short shrift there as well, since they are inconsistent with Wikipedia's policies. But go for it, if you really feel the need.
If you're wondering why I say that your arguments are inconsistent with policy, it's because they seem to be based on the premise that the fact that someone got contempt of court for divulging names in a Twitter post means that the post is a reliable source. It doesn't. According to Wikipedia policy, that logical leap is not allowed as it is synthesizing what two sources say into something new (the new thing here being a reliable source that cites the names). That's a form of original research, and original research is not allowed on Wikipedia, due to its nature as an encyclopedia. In addition, there are the obvious and serious BLP concerns, which require a contentious claim of this nature about a living person to be backed by absolutely 100% rock-solid-reliable sources. Twitter, with a few exceptions that don't apply here (your Barack Obama Twitter post example, if coming from his official Twitter account, might be one of these exceptions), is not a reliable source. You can't mix up a non-reliable source with a bunch of other sources to make a huge gelatinous mass of info that somehow works out to be a reliable source after all. It's either reliable on its own merits or it's not, and in this case, it's not. And if you don't have any truly reliable sources to back up these contentious claims, they get deleted and stay deleted. Period. End of story.
As far as the supposed personal attacks: I don't see any. I suppose there's Wikiquette assistance, but again, I wouldn't expect your claims to go very far there, as they appear to be unsubstantiated. Writ Keeper 14:35, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
I already predicted that there probably is an arcane, technical reason for this, and that the arguments that have been presented up to this point are mere excuses; and your "original research" argument makes sense, unlike previous arguments that Twitter, thin air, and dead trees are "sources" and not "media". That's all I wanted and asked for: an honest answer. Not excuses, not embarrassingly poor arguments, not personal attacks, but an actual reason. Thank you for your substantive contribution - in fact, it's the first one in this particular discussion.
You had me momentarily amazed, because contrary to my expectations when I enter this particular talk page, I suddenly and without warning encountered good arguments, as opposed to embarrassments and mere personal attacks. Unfortunately, my eye subsequently fell on your signature, and I was filled with deep disappointment. Yeah...
My claim regarding personal attacks is not unsubstantiated at all. If you look through the previous discussion (which has been hidden, because Jac16888 prefers that people not read it, as it is embarrassing to him), you'll see that Jac16888 claims to know what people's motivations and intentions are, and that these are scurrilous - with no evidence to support it (and he didn't even try to make an argument or provide evidence - then again, that's also the case for other matters). Those are personal attacks - ironically, made when he was complaining that I "libeled" people with "no evidence". --SpiritOfBanquo (talk) 16:14, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Delete My Page

I ask you once again to delete My Destination Marbella, as the administrators ,including you, at Wikipedia don't seem to understand that My Destination Marbella advertises companies on its website but not on Wikipedia. I regret placing hyperlinks and a couple of paragraphs. Since I have had to do this logged out of my account because you have blocked and blocked me from saying anything else and leaving e-mail as a maybe solution, I have had enough. I therefor ,for the third time, ask that you delete the account and page, if I can't edit it, if you can't understand that I have read your policies, read your feedback, told all of you that I will correct if given the page back, I was told that I didn't do any of the past things and left with rude and sarcastic remarks. This is not the Wikipedia I knew. Whilst at Wikipedia it has only been stressful and I could not understand the help pages as there are lots of pages which aren't very clear. I have explained everything and that enough. You have only caused more grief than good.

Loch Ness Monster - Daily Mail reference

You just deleted my contribution by saying Daily Mail reference is not reliable. OK, if you consider so, I'm OK with that, but, try to understand my poit of view: check the contribution before. Sonar image (2011). It has two references, one from Daily Mail and another from a web log. This shouldn't be valid too then.

And the most classic/famous reference to Loch Ness monster ever, the Surgeon's Photograph, was published by the Daily Mail in 1934 and that's explained in the article.

The section "Photographs and films" is about alleged sightings of the cryptid and the Daily Mail published a photograph by a man alleging it is the cryptid. So don't you think this fit the page? I didn't even saw it firstly in Daily Mail but in Brazilian news, so, true or false (and I believe it's false like every evidence or trace of the monster), this reference still exists, was published, there is a new alleged photograph of the monster that's been spread around the world. So why ignore it?

Once Loch Ness monster is probably a hoax itself, is any reference about it reliable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thiago CA Leal (talkcontribs) 20:19, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Meh, you can restore it if you want, although I would consider any Daily Mail article to be about as factual as a Roald Dahl book so if you could find another source it would be better--Jac16888 Talk 20:29, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Did you even bother to check them against the article? Or attempt to tidy it before you went nuts with the tags? Or notice that I actually fixed the issues when I removed the tags? Let's take a look at your tagging shall we:
  • advert - what exactly was an advert in this
  • cleanup-reorganize - of a 5 line article?
  • confusing - how is this any different from copyedit, incoherent, wikify or rough translation
  • copy edit - see confusing
  • dead end - took seconds to link the place names
  • incoherent - see confusing
  • orphan - probably the only legitimate tag you added
  • weasel - the only weasel words I saw were "peace & pride" not exactly hard to deal with
  • wikify - see confusing
  • wikify - hmmmm, déjà vu
  • rough translation - see confusing

You should do neither. Since you are part of the company you have an unavoidable conflict of interest which means you will be inherently biased, which is exactly what we don't want.

This is removing all of it is it? Because it looks to me like you made the exact same edit as before. It's not about being a sore loser, (particularly considering I am in no way "sore" and I in no way "lost") it's about you attempting to change the meaning of comments in order to try and change the conversation. Since you're clearly unable or unwilling able to do it properly I have removed it myself, I strongly suggest you leave it alone, or next time I will be reporting you--Jac16888 Talk 19:33, 21 August 2012 (UTC
No, it's not the exact same edit as before. I took out the "excuse me?", as it was the only thing that I saw that could be considerd to be no longer in context that this edit of yours could possibly have addressed. Pray tell, if you want to keep insisting I changed the meaning of your 4:40 pm, 28 February 2012 comment, then tell me, what was the meaning of your 4:40 pm, 28 February 2012 comment before, and what was the meaning after?--Elvey (talk) 20:51, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
When you take out one sentence of a paragraph, that's an attempt to change the meaning and to change my comments, and I challenge you to find a single established editor who would agree that is acceptable behaviour. And the change you made was to hide my questioning your abusive use of twinkle, with the sentence it brings attention to the summary and type of edit you made, without and the attention of the paragraph is focused on just the change. --Jac16888 Talk 21:08, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

A sore loser refers to one who does not take defeat well. You are acting like a sore loser, apparently apropos my comment: Well, Fine print now indicates (as it has for months) exactly what User Jac16888 had been berating me for adding and insisting was false again and again and again - that fine print is illegal in some cases. And is a hell of a lot better because of it. And it's backed up to the hilt with heavily defended citations (that include direct quotes from the citations, and so forth so as to make no logical step even remotely resemble a logical leap) I added long ago that make it thoroughly, irrefutably blindingly obviously verifiable.) User Jac16888's despicable threats, personal attacks, straw man attacks, insults and bullying were extremely disruptive and the multi-prong attack on me suggest dissembling; on what ethical grounds would someone fight so hard to quash any indication in the article of the rather obvious and verifiable truth that that some fine print is illegal? --Elvey (talk) 10:36 am, 13 June 2012, Wednesday (2 months, 9 days ago) (UTC−7) I on the other hand, was a good sport - when I saw I had erroneously tagged an edit as vandalism, and handled the situation with the grace of a good sport, and to the extent I won - by proving that fine print is illegal in some cases, I mentioned it on my OWN talk page, so a passer-by could see that the disparaging comments about me and my sources were not well-founded; I didn't rub it in your face; IIRC, I didn't comment on your talk page until your additional harassment made your behavior as a whole abusive. Good sport means being a "good winner" as well as being a "good loser". --Elvey (talk) 21:17, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
Sore loser behavior includes blaming others for the loss, not taking responsibility for personal actions that contributed to the defeat, reacting to the loss in an immature or improper fashion, making excuses for the defeat, and citing unfavorable conditions or other petty issues as reasons for the defeat. And that would include you, Jac16888, not taking responsibility for your harassing behavior by claiming that the many, varied instances of harassing behavior that I called you on, Jac16888, were just you keeping your comments intact; they were in fact completely unrelated. --Elvey (talk) 21:25, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
Way to go completely sidestepping the issue being discussed here with regards to your out of line editing of my comments. How exactly were they unrelated? The only edits I have made with regards to you were to revert your removal of a select sentence. I achieved what I wanted to with regards to that article, the silly statement with a non-supporting source is no longer an issue, and neither is the incorrectly used template, so yes I would consider myself as having "won". Also:"despicable threats" where? "personal attacks" where? "straw man attacks" where? "insults and bullying" where? I didn't respond to your rant because I had no interest in doing so, any one taking 5 minutes to read the discussion would see your accusations against me and you summation of the discussion as completely false.--Jac16888 Talk 21:33, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

I marked it for deletion for being unintelligible and unsourced, and another editor disagreed on the basis that while it's current state was of no use, the original german article could be used to make a decent article, therefore I removed the worst of the content so someone part of the WP:TRANSLATION project could see the tag and do it properly from scratch. As for the title, I have no idea, you would be best of asking someone from Wikipedia:WikiProject Ships--Jac16888 Talk 22:44, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
Got it all sorted and someone jumped in to help out as well. Johnvr4 (talk) 21:12, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

My sandbox

Actually, it was taken directly from the source not from Spanish Wikipedia, that's why I had the tag there so when I do move the article someone can translate it. Best, Jonatalk to me 22:53, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Well then that makes it a copyright violation, and even more inappropriate--Jac16888 Talk 22:55, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
I forgot about that :/ Well I removed it. Best, Jonatalk to me 23:58, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Operation Red Hat

Did the rest of the Operation Red Hat entry pass muster? I made sure to remove the FB link. Is the policy call for no mention of FB or is it that you need to have links in the external links section and you can't have links to Facebook? Not arguing with the deletion, just trying to understand the rules. Thanks againJohnvr4 (talk) 21:25, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

As far as I can tell. As for the link, it's all about common sense, it would make sense for the article about Britney Spears for example to link to her Facebook page, but an article about a US military operation having a link to a page like that is just silly--Jac16888 Talk 21:51, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

Hong Kong Academy for Gifted Education

Hello!

Understand the article about Hong Kong Academy for Gifted Education is locked. Actually I have another article called HKAGE with sufficient and reliable sources from newspapers and governments papers in Hong Kong. However, it is hardly to keep because other editors mentioned that the deletion of Hong Kong Academy for Gifted Education affected my HKAGE article.

As such, I would like to see if you could help to follow up.

As mentioned above, HKAGE article quoted from newspapers and governments sources so these justify its notability amd reliability. There are also many news coverage about the HKAGE (like SCMP), but it is charged by newspaper if shared on web.

Besides, HKAGE is a non-profit organisation supported by the government so it is not in a promotional nature.

Furthermore, all the information included is only necessary and factual, and thus it is written from a neutral perspective but not an exaggerated one.

From the above point of view, I can't see any point that HKAGE article is being an advertising article. In stead, it helps to let other organisations over the world to have more information as their reference and development. The article should not be deleted soley because another related article is deleted before. This reason cannot be avalid ground at all.

If you have any suggestion about HKAGE article, esp on the point of advertising, would you please kindly show me an example of how to modify by using the content in the article, so as to demonstrate the consistent standard of non-promotional in Wikipedia? As I checked out different sites, they have listed many products or quoted from their own websites, but those websites are not deleted. Please see below examples-

I'm looking forward to your reply. Thank you.

The version I deleted in May was blatant spam, the current information is less promotional, if you don't want it deleted you need to make your arguments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/HKAGE, I have nothing to do with this version--Jac16888 Talk 17:33, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

Just FYI, I noted you gave this editor (User:N157) a final warning on his talk page; he has since reposted an article I've tagged as an attack page. No need to respond, just wanted to make sure you had the information. Ubelowme U Me 16:05, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know, they've already been blocked so hopefully that will be the end of it--Jac16888 Talk 16:24, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

Computer Vand-køling

Hey there

Is it possible for me to recover the article "Computer Vand-køling" since it was a mistake that it got sent to wiki.riteme.site.

It should have been uploaded to da.wikipedia.org but i didnt get to correct it in time.

thanks

Yes, I've restored it an moved it back to User:Geekius/sandbox. Please note though that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a how-to-guide, so unless you plan on changing it into a proper (and referenced) article, the Danish Wikipedia are unlikely to want it either--Jac16888 Talk 23:28, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

Translation on "Tenedos" for the Islamic Encyclopedia

Wasn't asking for a translation of the name of the source. The source was added to support a claim the mosque had been built on top of an earlier one demolished by Venetians. Wanted a translation of exactly what the the encyc. said on that aspect. However the sentence seems to have been removed by now. Churn and change (talk) 21:34, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Well we have a template for that, Template:Source need translation, but asking somebody to translate an encyclopedia for you is not likely to get good results--Jac16888 Talk 17:21, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
I am asking somebody to translate the specific part that backs up what is included in the article. The part has been removed, as I expected, so the issue is moot. Churn and change (talk) 17:28, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Letting you know I undeleted this; I was hitting edit to translate it, having found sources, when I found you'd deleted it. I have asked the editor who created it to help me add more sources, and you should of course feel free to AfD it if you don't think it adequately demonstrates notability. But there was in fact a claim of notability buried amid the Norwegian (which had at least 2 copyvio sentences, so I've tried to gently tell the editor not to do that, either).

Didn't really see the notablility in the original, but I can't argue with what you've done to it, nice job--Jac16888 Talk 18:40, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
