DRV

Two things:

1. The DRV never had a chance of overturning the closure. I wouldn't have started it in the first place.
2. Cyclopia, Dream, and Warden like to attack me and other deletionists whenever possible, so you shouldn't give them any additional opportunities. Blaming me for that when you started the DRV in the first place is a bit incongruous. If you hadn't started the DRV, they wouldn't have come by and brought up completely irrelevant information.

In short, while I agree the close sucks, you shouldn't have started the DRV, and you shouldn't blame me for it degenerating pbp 17:23, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

I never expected or requested an overturn to "delete", just a recognition that there wasn't a consensus to keep and that the prohibition on future discussion was unacceptable. I still think that's achievable. The best way to deal with Dream Focus and Colonel Warden is to ignore them. Most people do. It's only by paying attention to them that they gain any power.—Kww(talk) 17:32, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

DRV

I particularly enjoyed your comment: "It's probably a little early to conclude the deletes finally have it". Reminds me of a fellow from the old neighborhood years ago who, after a fairly harsh beating, staggered to his feet and defiantly asked his opponent: "You had enough yet?". If after 7 failed AfD's you actually think things are going well for the deletionists, I have to wonder if you're just having a laugh. Joefromrandb (talk) 16:37, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Shang-A-Lang

Hello, Kww. I see you deleted Shang-A-Lang; could you please restore it to User:Launchballer/Shang-A-Lang because a quick check of "WhatLinksHere" shows that it is a Bay City Rollers song that made #2 on the UK Singles Chart and spawned a children's pop music TV series of the same name? Thank you.--Launchballer 11:55, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

GA Renomination

Kww,

In case you didn't receive a notification of me pinging you on this talk page, I was hoping you could give some insight on whether it seems eligible to be renominated for GA status. I personally believe it should be (as is the person who first brought the matter up on the talk page) and requested input from you and admin @Acalamari:. He provided his thoughts and also recommended we gather your views. Can you please provide input on the page?

Protection of talk pages

I noticed you've protected the talk pages of some One Direction song articles (eg). Was this intentional? If so, why? Adabow (talk) 05:41, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Yes, it was intentional, but only for a few days. All the One Direction articles came under attack and were protected by other admins. As soon as they did that, the vandals started in on the One Direction talk page. I did a three-day semi-protection on the talk pages as well to get it to end. A bit outside the ordinary, but it was a fairly determined and widespread attack.—Kww(talk) 13:16, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

"Knowingly making false statements"

Do not again make such an accusation.[2] You may find it fine to include details about the divorce and dating life of the mother of a missing teenager in the article about her daughter; I find no connection in the article for anything having anything to do with the mother's dating life and divorce and the disappearance of her daughter, and no reason established for it to be there. Whether her mother's divorce was "no fault" or not is unrelated, and no connection is made in the text. That you think it OK, and I think it not, to include off-topic personal information about a living person means we have a difference of opinion. It does not mean I am "knowingly making false statements". Once again, the article text never made any connection between the mother's divorce or dating life and anything else in the article, and there was no reason for the text being there. It adds to the anti-American, misogynistic slant of the article. Do not again make accusations that impugn my integrity and character. And by the way, your other antics on that article are being discussed at WP:ANI. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 06:11, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Once again: you described it as a "slur" that "disparaged the mother of a dead girl" when you knew full-well that it is not a slur: it is a direct quote from Alabama state code, and the word "incompatible" cannot be read as disparaging someone. You are right on one point: we can have a valid disagreement as to whether the material belongs in the article. That's a reasonable and rational topic for debate. Your use of the word "slur" to describe the no-fault divorce language from the Alabama legal code is not a point of disagreement, it's an intentional misdescription of the text. As for my "antics": I'm quite tired of the misdescription of the article as misogynistic and anti-American when it is quite neutral. I'm well aware that you are getting no traction in an ANI discussion at this moment, and don't see that showing up in order for you to further malign me will be of any benefit to the project. I've not misused my administrative tools, and can defend every use I have made of my tools with respect to the article quite easily: I've never used administrative tools on Natalee Holloway or Disappearance of Natalee Holloway. My sole use of administrative tools was to protect Natalee Ann Holloway based on the the consensus at the move discussion to protect the redirect to the article. If you dig back in article history you will undoubtedly find block or two that I've issued against people vandalizing the article, and I'm confident that I will be able to defend myself against any accusations of wrongdoing in regard to those as well.—Kww(talk) 06:45, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

I have reviewed Newyorkbrad's talk page, and the BLP noticeboard where your claim that I "knowingly made false statements". There is no text substantiating your accusation in either place. You said on 17:42, 17 November 2013, "You knowingly made a false statement to him", and you have persisted in that characterization. That I do not believe an article needs to include irrelevant, off-topic information about the woman's marital and dating life, and that including that is negative, gratuitous, and revictimizes a victim is not "knowingly making false statements". And it is a view shared by enough people that the text has been removed from the article. Your attempt to justify the text on the basis of wording of local divorce law is still irrelevant: there is no reason established in the article for her divorce to be mentioned at all (no fault or otherwise), just as there was no basis for her dating life to be discussed, and anyone in their right mind is free to view that information as having a negative impact, and even more so when considered with the other selective information presented in that article about other living persons. The information created a BLP issue and read as a slur, yes, because there was no context or reason for that text to be included. I trust these issues will be corrected by the time the FAR resumes and a more balanced account representing all sources will be present in the article. I don't know how you can hold BLP issues in such low regard, particularly when victims are involved, but whatever your reasoning, you have been warned not to continue to falsely accuse me. There has been a pattern of intimidation and bullying and ownership and battleground group conduct visited upon every dispute resolution that has been approached about that article and by the same group of involved editors: I invite you to make the kind of gesture I made when I tried to help get the FAR under control, engage the ANI appropriately, and engage dispute resolution fora without intimidation and bullying tactics, so that work can proceed without this circus of intimidation and bullying whenever the article owners encounter disagreement. People will disagree with you at times; your reaction should not be to call them liars. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:40, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Plane (Magic: The Gathering) AfD

Hi. I'm approaching you because I know that you take a dim view of AfD keeps based on spurious or engineered WP:Copying within Wikipedia issues, such as the merging during WP:Articles for deletion/Silver Lake Village (Michigan) (2nd nomination). A user recommended speedy keep at WP:Articles for deletion/Plane (Magic: The Gathering) based on CWW, but with the attribution burden reversed. Following the comment would actually violate the guideline and related policy. I dropped the ball at the AfD, and the non-admin closer endorsed and expanded on the point in his closing statement, although merge was the likely outcome regardless. I didn't get any traction with either the participant or the closer. Would you be willing to take a look? Thanks. Flatscan (talk) 05:28, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Forced switch to Lua Convert with bugs

As you might know, there is talk of switching, system-wide to the Lua version of Template:Convert, as Module:Convert, rather than first running a formal beta test, or limited roll-out among a few thousand pages. Interestingly, most known bugs in the Lua version are being left unfixed, purposely, with talk of fixing them later, after Lua is deployed system-wide. That attitude reminded me so much of the VE system-wide roll-out with known bugs (in July 2013), that I thought you would be interested to know how forcing software with bugs across the whole of Wikipedia is not just a mindset of the VE team. In fact, I suspect the fox-guarding-the-henhouse to push out buggy products, and ignore testing, is a primary reason why organizations have an independent testing branch which judges the "no-go" status of products; otherwise those who write the software seem unwilling to make changes unless shut-out from deploying whatever they can. I hope this information reduces the stigma about the VE team, as being typical S.O.P. when product developers are not restrained by quality-control restrictions, and totally ignore the customer base. Beyond the "sum of all knowledge" as a goal, working with Wikipedia reveals how numerous people act in very unwise ways. Things to ponder. -Wikid77 (talk) 17:24, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

What Bbb23 doesn't mention is that the IP editing was not disruptive but wholly productive. Bbb23 deletes anything an IP editor does, even if it takes that editor many hours to do so. He is on record saying that IP addresses should not be allowed to edit Wikipedia. Thus he creates conflict and ugliness when there is really Good Faith. If it remains Wikipedia policy to allow IP addresses to edit in good faith, then Bbb23 cannot act like a policeman and create discord. Again, look at what happened. An IP editor had spent substantial time editing (perhaps not exactly knowing all Wiki rules) but in great Good Faith. Then Bbb23 summarily deleted the work I would consider this disruptive and hostile behavior and somebody should remind Bbb23 that he should follow rules too. 31.6.30.153 (talk) 03:10, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

I concur and thank you 31 for directing me here. Blocking IP addresses is not the answer. The answer is to chastise editors who are prejudiced against IP editors. Blocking IP addresses is disruptive and unkind to innocent users. 209.99.2.187 (talk) 03:18, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

IP proxies -- see below, that Bbb23 posted on the Martha Nell Smith talk page. Why does he use the word "assault" when in fact the IP input has moved the page much further and it would have been pleasant without the rampant deletions? http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User:Bbb23 is relentlessly NOT in Good Faith. Please don't block my IP address for writing this; I am doing nothing disruptive -- I am, rather, bringing disruptive acts by Bbb23 to your attention. 69.80.101.116 (talk) 14:27, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

I noticed you reverted my edit to User talk:Friginator but I need that section removed and either moved to an archive of past discussions or even removed from Wikipedia if the archive can appear in google results. Please read this.

One section was from a year ago. I moved it to an archive of past discussions. Another reason is because it had some personal information such as my IP addresses on it and I couldn't handle it on there anymore. I want my info private and it's bothering me a lot. The section was called STOP STRIKING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or something. I was blocked indefinitely and used sock accounts. Although, I really can't help this. I want that section removed from the page and either moved to the archive or actually even removed from Wikipedia itself. I used some usernames of other people outside of this website and I don't want them to know. I tried to request a rename by email cause I was too nervous to allow my request to be publicly shown. This may be a sock IP but please, remove the section. I have a feeling they might find the thing on Google. I want my location private. Please. Please, remove it.

Bubbling Under chart

Hi Kevin, I saw an user adding a position 53 in the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart column, corresponding to a debut of #3 in the Bubbling Under Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, in the Jay-Z discography article. However, if I recall correctly, the Bubbling Under is not an extension of the main 50 position R&B chart, rather its just a ranking of songs not attaining enough songs to enter the main chart and never did. Am I right and those positions are incorrect in the article? —Indian:BIO · ^{[ ChitChat ]} 16:29, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

You are right. Point the user at WP:Record charts if you have a conflict.—Kww(talk) 16:32, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Let's see if the edit summary should suffice. —Indian:BIO · ^{[ ChitChat ]} 16:34, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

There is another thing I wanted to notify you. In the {{singlechart}} template for Hungary, the urls generated are for the mahasz.hu website, however, that website has migrated off to a new url. Could you please take a look since the week and the year given does not generate the archive url anymore. Also, can we have the year and week for the Irish singlechart as part of the title also? Like "Chart Track: Week 43, 2014" or something? The title simply does not give any indication whether the link is for a singles chart or album chart etc. —Indian:BIO · ^{[ ChitChat ]} 17:46, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Selena Gomez

Kevin,

I noticed you removed "philanthropist" from the descriptions listed on the Selena Gomez article with the edit summary "WP:UNDUE". How exactly is that undue weight if there is a lengthy section on her article dedicated to her philanthropy? XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 00:21, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

That section needs a pretty dramatic trimming as well, XXSNUGGUMSXX. "Celebrity spokesperson for a charity" and "philanthropist" are distinct concepts.—Kww(talk) 00:49, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Last I checked, a philanthropist is one who aims to help improve the lives of others. How would you describe the difference between those two descriptions? XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 00:54, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

A philanthropist is one who devotes himself to improving the lives of others.—Kww(talk) 01:09, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

It might take some more reviewing of sources and such, but at first glance of her persona and actions it seems fair use to describe her as a philanthropist, even if not as active in it as people like Bill Gates. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 01:17, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

"Decisions" (song)

Hello there! I have a question for you regarding the protection status of "Decisions". I had drafted an article in my sandbox for this namespace before realizing that it was fully protected, so I put in an edit request asking that my content be transferred over. However, there are still additions (adding non-free covers, appropriate music video screenshots, etc.) that I would not be able to keep in my sandbox because it would violate our fair-use policies. Rather than putting in edit requests for each little adjustment I would be making, and also taking into consideration that the user that had been causing sock-puppeting problems with Miley Cyrus articles a few months ago has been addressed, I was wondering if it would be possible to adjust the article's protection down to semi-protection for only registered users, given that there is more than enough content to supply an article for the song separate from Bergore's biography. Thanks for your time, WikiRedactor (talk) 00:40, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Note that I still think it is questionable to have an article about this song, as it does not appear to have charted or to have been independently covered by notable artists. Still, it isn't my role to use my administrative powers to enforce that view, so I brought your version over. Please add material that addresses my concerns or I will wind up redirecting it again or taking it to AFD.—Kww(talk) 00:56, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your help, I look forward to expanding the article! WikiRedactor (talk) 01:47, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

When will you re-enable PC2 per WP:IAR? Ronhjones lower it down recently from full-protection. --George Ho (talk) 01:48, 21 January 2014 (UTC)

I wouldn't consider abusing my admin tools by applying a level of protection that the community has rejected. I wish other admins would be as considerate.—Kww(talk) 01:50, 21 January 2014 (UTC)

Well... that's your decision, so I won't try to persuade. I was told that IAR may be used to enable PC2 under "unforeseen circumstances", NOT "foreseen" ones. In fact, Rupert Sheldrake will end up just fine with semi-protection and 1RR-enforcement if not for PC2. Looks unfair, but (with 1RR) that'll teach POV-pushers and Sheldrake fans a lesson not to mess with Wikipedia. --George Ho (talk) 02:33, 21 January 2014 (UTC)

BillboardID

Hey, i noticed you edited Template:BillboardID/W and i was wondering if you knew how to add an artist into the template. Koala15 (talk) 05:26, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Koala15, it looks to me like you added Wrekonize correctly with this edit. I restored that version, and {{BillboardURLbyName}} expands to https://www.billboard.com/artist/wrekonize/chart-history/ just as it should. What did you think was wrong? The Billboard page is pretty empty, but the template can't force Billboard to keep their site up to date.—Kww(talk) 05:39, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

I thought it was wrong because on the page i was using it for in the source it says "illegal name entered", as you can see here The War Within (Wrekonize album). Koala15 (talk) 15:17, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Advising mediation

I see your ongoing conflict with overagainst about disappearance of Natalee Holloway in many venues. I realize your good-faith comments about the matter, but bickering and edit warring must stop now. File a report at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation. I want to file it, but I wasn't participating in your battles. I was just kind about the dispute. Copied with tweaks from other page. --George Ho (talk) 23:51, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

If Overagainst holds to his pledge to stop chipping away at the article, then the dispute will be largely resolved, George Ho. Your own contribution by placing tags has only encouraged him, so I hope that has come to an end. Note that I have actually rewritten the section, changed attributions, and outlined additional sources in an effort to resolve the underlying issues that caused those tags to be placed in the first place. It's hard to describe that as "edit warring".—Kww(talk) 00:45, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

Overagainst re-tagged it as "primary sources". I've done no further involvement since you removed the "undue" one. I am staying away from the article for now, but I will get back to the article at the end of February for FA review. --George Ho (talk) 00:49, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

sorry

Sorry that the committee seems compelled to throw you under the bus for a reasonable action that should have simply been reverted with minimal fuss and a professional explanation. That said, despite your success with the VE thing, picking a fight with WMF is a losing proposition. At this point, best to just let it go. Arbcom admonishments always struck me as a somewhat juvenile "stern talking to," so it really shouldn't matter in the long run. NE Ent 21:55, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

I don't think he's quite under the bus just yet, all we are really saying is that the approach he took was not the correct one. At least that's all I'm saying. At worst the bus ran over his toe. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:06, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

That's not quite all you're saying, Beeb. You're also saying "that 'incorrect approach' is strike one and strike two, next one is strike three". --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:22, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

And the point that seems lost on everybody is that the mantra "office actions don't have to follow policy" is being misapplied in this case, although I'm going to give up arguing that on the case page. Those that say that are absolutely right in one sense: Philippe is immune to any form of discipline or sanction for applying PC2 to articles. He could apply PC2 to hundreds of articles citing "office action" and not a thing could be done to him. However, as administrators, we are responsible for maintaining Wikipedia in a state that conforms to both the community consensus and the needs of the office. As Philippe has now indicated that full protection would not violate any agreements with outside parties, that still appears to me to be full protection in this case. Of course, it would be better if he would indicate that PC1 or semi-protection would do, but he hasn't said that. I'm not about to go doing that: admonishment or not, it would be a WP:WHEEL violation.—Kww(talk) 22:32, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Kww, you should discuss an admin action with people beforehand if it can be reasonably expected to upset them and there is no emergency. If, as you say, you had no clue it would annoy Philippe, you are not fit to be using admin tools. Your action was, though, in my opinion, entirely appropriate. So, thanks for what you did, but trout for how you did it. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 23:00, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Did Philippe know consensus favours not using PC2? --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 17:24, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Hard to say, Anthonyhcole. I assumed it fell into one of two cases: either he knew, and had misclicked when attempting to apply PC1; or he did not know, and his application of PC2 was an honest error that he would correct when it was brought to his attention. I put this in much the same class of thing as finding that an admin has misspelled an article title while processing a move or had neglected to delete an article talk page when deleting an article. That the policy violation was intentional struck me as being such a remote possibility that I didn't consider it seriously. With errors like this, I proceed to fix them and frequently don't notify anyone. The recent restoration of PC2 was certainly done with full knowledge that it is proscribed by policy.—Kww(talk) 19:10, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Do you think he's a good community liaison? As second-in-charge of WMF, what kind of a job do you think he's doing? --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 19:48, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for contributing to the discussion on this image: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/File:UNESCO_IJD_TMIJ.jpg

I had originally thought that this image would be appropriate because it showed which organizations partnered to create the celebrated date. I did not mean for it to be decorative and promotional as much as I meant it to be informative in a visual way.

Perhaps you think that I should try to remove this image and move it onto the International Jazz Day page? (Found here:https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/International_Jazz_Day) So it is more relevant to the article it appears in?

Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as this whole process is still relatively new to me and is a bit overwhelming at times.

EEng

I've been dealing with an editor who has a blatant and self-disclosed COI on the Phineas Gage article. The editor, EEng, self discloses his real life identity on his userpage with an explicit link to a diff and claim. The editor is Lena of "Macmillan & Lena", the dominate source with a clear POV: attacking other Gage researchers. Also an issue are inconclusive details being presented as fact. The matter is a bit complex, but a COIN was opened and a COI was noted by several editors. EEng exhibits strong OWN issues, fighting over simple MOS changes and calling such editors "MOS Nazis" While there is some issue with EEng refactoring comments, its degraded to EEng simply refusing to acknowledge a major error made by Macmillan (the senior researcher) with a note. In reading the source, I and several other reliable sources have mirrored it and EEng doesn't want this prominent and influential error noted. As a result he's repeatedly said I am "a hopeless incompetent or a troll".[7][8] EEng has been warned for WP:NPA many times including this outright personal attack that almost got him blocked.[9] EEng should not be editing the article or calling other editors trolls.

List of unusual deaths

Your argument is insanely ridiculous. Dying of an heart attack during the premier screening of a movie made out of your own book, after yelling out your disaproval, is something you would not immediately categorize under "unusual"? I don't know where you live, but in the world I live in, people don't usually die that way, hence unusual death.

Also your argument "only a categorization in a reliable source as being unusual matters" is quite ludicrous, not only because of the reason above, because also within the page "List of unusal deaths" this has not been the standard. I have already given you the example of Gouverneur Morris, whose death the source does not categorize as "unusual" as well. His deaths is merely described in the source given, as is in the source I gave to the death of Boris Vian. What you are asking (the "categorization in a reliable source as being unusual matters") is your personal standard/opinion and as you yourself pointed out, such personal opinions do not matter.

In conclusion, I gave three sources of the way in which Boris Vian died (after firstly not citing responsibly and I apologize for that), putting the obvious fact, that he died in an unusal fashion up for discusion is not reasonable. It would not only waste mine and your time (as you already have wasted a lot of that), but also the time of other editors.

As I said, don't waste my time and as I said, the entire page has not been edited in that fashion, multiple of the "unusual deaths" are not cited by cited with "multiple" sources, neither are they called "unusual" in the sources themselves, so please go ahead and edit out all these deaths - you know what?

I don't know why you keep deleting the Arrows label image from the article when the image has been released by RAK into the public domain. Granted OTRS has not yet confirmed it, even after 3 months, but you can rest assured that if they determine that it is NOT PD, they will delete the image and a bot will delete the link to it. Furthermore, even if the image was not PD, its inclusion would be valid under fair use, just like all the other copyrighted images in the article. Before reverting it again, please either cite under what authority you are doing so, or submit an RFC to clarify the policy. Robman94 (talk) 22:02, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Nominated for deletion. Edit-warring for a probable copyright violation is not the same as edit-warring for a blatant copyright violation. Rather than edit-war with an image that has been labeled as PD since November, it has to be proved it is in the PD since then. Removing it from the article won't solve the problem. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 22:40, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi. I am attempting to create an article on OpenCart, but I see that it is protected after being deleted twice. The most recent delete was in 2010, and OpenCart seems to be one of the more notable ecommerce applications these days, more so than many with articles listed at Comparison of shopping cart software. It is listed as joint second most popular at The Top Four eCommerce Platforms as Chosen by You, is listed by Paypal, listed 2nd in 7 of the Best Free Open source Ecommerce Platforms Scored and also on Top 6 open source PHP eCommerce platforms and amongst the best of the pack Open Source E-Commerce Shopping Carts – Best Of.

Rusted AutoParts is edit warring again

Hey there

I've noticed that Rusted AutoParts is someone that you blocked recently for edit warring. He is now doing the same thing again, labelling my edits on the Fast & Furious 7 article as "unsatisfying", "sloppy" and "undesirable", and reverting my edits so that he can have his way, and all of my hard work that I put a lot of time into is undone. Because he was on his "last chance" before, and because he is really giving me grief about this, can I ask (without really meaning to dob) that you block him again for edit warring? I've read the reasons for why he has been blocked previously, and the circumstances now are the same.

I am trying to act out of good faith here, but I've had enough of him. If you help me by blocking him, at least I can edit the article and several others in peace without him undoing everything I do and criticizing it. As I said, the circumstances of before when he was blocked for six months and now are the same (I don't understand why the block was lifted at all, let alone after such a short time). As you were the one who blocked him before, can you please help?

With kind regards, 4TheWynne (talk) 13:35, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

Reverts

Excuse me but could you please stop doing full reverts on Sakis Rouvas. By doing so you also reverted other new edits (formatting, updating) that were not contentious, which I happened to work hard on. I don't know how you could possibly feel that the grammar in the new version is better, it's not, it makes my eyes hurt. In a lot of places it is clear that it has not been written by a native English speaker as it tries to use Greek conventions. A lot of the formatting is wrong such as wrong formats for song/film titles, putting parts of sentences in brackets where it is not needed, creating poor flow, emphasis at wrong moments. The writing is very basic/elementary and on top of that it really does nothing for the neutrality either way. This isn't simple English wikipedia. ie "Since his early childhood he had difficulty in school, particularly in reading and writing. Working during the day, Rouvas went to school at night with his mother (who had not finished secondary school)."[6] is not better than the previous, which stated she also was finishing up at the time, it makes it sound really dumb. Also it appears other non-contentious sourced information seems to be missing. Also many of the sentences have been changed to convey a different meaning/POV from the original source in Greek, which is a no-no!!!! Ex: "Rouvas' appearance in Eurovision was a turning point in his career; his public perception changed from media-produced celebrity to notable pop artist" for one changes the entire meaning of the source which translates to over-exposed, not media-produced and "to possibly the most notable artist in pop" quote. Another instance is in the vocal section which changed the POV of the sources, making it seem as though they conclude that most people prefer to watch than listen, when the point of the sources was going in a different direction. A lot of things have been manipulated in translation.

BTW everything within the lead is sourced in the article by reliable sources. When I first wrote it it was an early draft completely summarizing the topic but with some trimming and reworking to be made, but unfortunately myself and the other edits that used to work on these pages haven't been very active lately. If you or anyone has a problem with some of the wording I have no problem with tweaks but it needs to be within the standard, not this current mess. Also I would kindly ask that you please selectively edit next time rather than doing a full revert, as I said you also deleted non-contentious information. Or at least write in the talk or message me what you would specifically like changed so I can get to it. Thank you. GreekStar12 (talk) 17:03, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

Firstly, I think you are being a little rude and would politely ask if you could change your tone, calling someone's work "absolutely terrible" "stop writing an ad campaign and write an encyclopedia article" is uncalled for and makes one big sweeping generalization, as you probably haven't even looked through the article fully judging by the fact you approve of this elementary school version.

1) He is the most commercially successful entertainer of ALL TIME in the Hellenics, that's not an opinion it's a sourced fact that's been analyzed to death in papers. 2) Word it how you want but his performance style, artistry, personal has often caused controversy of social or even religious proportions. 3) His albums Kati Apo Mena and 21 were considered a stepping stone artistically and began an era of higher critical acceptance, and swept all the awards shows, also sourced. Absolutely no mention of the artistic development in the current one. 4) His non musical ventures were also well received critically and commercially, also sourced. Where's that info? 5) For most of his career he was known more for his appearance than anything else, SOURCED, so its downright irresponsible not to state it as a representative characteristic. Worded one way or another, all of the above is representative and needs to be included.

I can give you many examples of featured articles that include a lot of what you consider "terrible": 1) about being one of the most attractive celebrities: Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan "is often cited by media as 'the most beautiful woman in the world'" and so on. Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson and so on contain lots of statements about influence: "Regarded as one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century", " His energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a singularly potent mix of influences across color lines that coincided with the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement, made him enormously popular—and controversial.", "Presley is one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century. Commercially successful in many genres, including pop, blues and gospel, he is the best-selling solo artist in the history of recorded music,[5][6][7][8] " All of that on Elvis.

"The Beatles were an English rock band that formed in Liverpool, in 1960. With John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, they became widely regarded as the greatest and most influential act of the rock era.[1] "often incorporating classical elements in innovative ways. In the early 1960s, their enormous popularity first emerged as "Beatlemania", but as their songwriting grew in sophistication they came to be perceived as an embodiment of the ideals shared by the era's sociocultural revolutions." ... Guess FA loves terrible works.

"In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in popular music. The music videos for his songs, including those of "Beat It", "Billie Jean", and "Thriller", were credited with breaking down racial barriers and with transforming the medium into an art form and promotional tool. The popularity of these videos helped to bring the then-relatively-new television channel MTV to fame. With videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream", he continued to innovate the medium throughout the 1990s, as well as forging a reputation as a touring solo artist. Through stage and video performances, Jackson popularized a number of complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk, to which he gave the name. His distinctive sound and style has influenced numerous hip hop, post-disco, contemporary R&B, pop, and rock artists." On the flip side Celine Dion's article talks about the negative reception of her musical works.

Again if there was somewhere you didn't like in the wording you could have just changed that instead of attacking the whole article with this grammar and formatting atrocity, not to mention deleting non-contentious info, that's just lazy editing. But I guess a couple of lines you disliked are more important than the other user actually changing the meaning and misrepresenting the material in the sources.

Excuse me, but what have you done to the lead???? Apart from taking out superlatives and critical/cultural assessments, you've also deleted legitimate career moves/timeline/event information that was sourced and told readers who the artist is, info about genres and artistic style, sourced info about awards and Forbes rankings. Forget about the reception you've actually omitted 15 years from his career!!! This version is not representative at all. Not to mention it's not NPOV!!!! Now all you have left is the controversy about his military service, giving extreme undue weight in the lead and negative POV. Also the thing about his last two albums is misleading, the decline was more publicity-wise/cultural not commercial and the rise was more so critical. The stuff in the lead now isn't even accurate (based on prose) and not supported by the sources. It's like your editing blindly without reading the article or sources. I'm very disappointed in your behaviour, especially as an admin. It's a joke. You can't just make such destructive edits to get to me. GreekStar12 (talk) 18:29, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

RE: Your revert

Kww,

I saw you reverted me on the discretionary sanction area. Don't worry, I won't touch your revert, however, I wanted to explain my revert to you. I reverted because the sanction is no longer valid. While it was valid, it served as as constant reminder that I was indeed banned from certain articles. It's no longer needed, and it's continuing presence would "mark me with a scarlett letter". I would ask that you revert your revert and pull my name back out as I had done. No one would involved would forget or be fooled by my name not being there, and that's not even the intent. My ban is on record, and removing my name would not change the fact that I was banned, and would be served with harsher penalties should I go back and cause disruption on the articles in question.

Do you have some personal grudge against this singer? I have look through the page's history and the related pages' history. You have done a lot of revision when those pages were updated. I am asking you to please cease and desist. Disruptive editing is not appreciated. Furthermore, the mixtape was released. I can source it with websites from Google, but it would hold up to your rules as "reliable". Indiafriend (talk) 22:07, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

You are correct. It shouldn't be done lightly, but in this case it is. It is strange that you are removing new information from the page when you know that it is true. A source is not necessary when the albums are sitting on iTunes or other stores. I'm 100% positive that you were aware of this before I began updating the page but you continued to be disruptive time and time again on those pages. Apparently, you have some personal bias against the singer as you have participated in revisions and request of deletion(s) on the related pages. I have also added those pages to my watchlist. Once again, please refrain from making disruptive edits. Indiafriend (talk) 23:12, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

And just be certain that you do not remove an editor's productive edits. If you need a source, please add a "Source Needed" tag. Constant revisions are unnecessary and eventually become disruptive. Indiafriend (talk) 03:22, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

WP: Canvassing

Hello. It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Indiafriend (talk) 16:50, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

Your input is invited on this round of FDC proposals!

Hello! I'm reaching out to you on behalf of the Funds Dissemination Committee to request your input on the four proposals that have been submitted to the FDC in this round. The FDC reviews these proposals on behalf of the Wikimedia movement, as it is movement money that they spend, and in order to review them effectively we need to understand your perspective on them, and to ensure that any questions you have about them have been appropriately answered. The proposals are linked to from meta:Grants:APG/Proposals/Community/Review#Proposals_for_review. Please provide your feedback through the talk pages for each proposal.

In particular, please take a close look at the Wikimedia Foundation's draft annual plan. As they have a projected budget of over $60 million (including the grants that they will provide to other movement entities), their plans need extra scrutiny by the community to make sure that they are spending the movement's money effectively.

We will also send you a message to ask you for your input in future rounds of the FDC. If you don't want to receive such messages, then please say so below.

Thanks! Mike Peel (talk) 19:29, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

Mrs. Brown's Boys D'Movie

It is unfair and very hurtful to threaten me. My edits have always been in good faith, not that I ever get any credit for that. Just people pulling me down and not being clear about the issue they have with my edit. I would appreciate it if instead you would help me and explain to me exactly where I'm failing in rules regarding copyright and plagiarism and how I'm supposed to write a plotline based on one source without breaking those rules or WP:OR. ~~ Peteb16 (talk) 15:29, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

You are correct, it's only a teaser. I'm willing to wait until the film is released to write a better plot section. I'm still unclear why you are saying "You cannot take every word from a web page", "quoting verbatim" and "As a direct quote". None of this is true. I genuinely did my best to avoid any of this. I have since read WP:PARAPHRASE and found that perhaps my wording was too closely paraphrased and perhaps there is no way to avoid this while so little is known of the plot. ~~ Peteb16 (talk) 16:33, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

Why the hassle?

Why the hassle to CFCF? He simply did the right thing and needed a local IPBE to get around a local block. He already had a global IPBE, and that was discussed with local CU before being implemented. It shouldn't be that hard for a user to get help from an admin who went to that user's talk page. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:16, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

No one hassled him, billinghurst. He sent me an e-mail questioning the block problem, and I answered on his talk page. Since I can't see the ticket, don't know why IPBE wasn't given here, and can't conceive of a good reason that someone needs to be using Powerhouse anonymous VPN services to access Wikipedia, I pointed him at the person that granted the IPBE in the first place.—Kww(talk) 13:27, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

This is a note to let you know, Kww that the article, Miley Cyrus which you are a major contributor to has become a FA nomineee. Shane Cyrus (talk) 04:54, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Shane Cyrus, it seems a shame that someone that does nothing but vandalism reversions would wind up as the number 3 editor at the article. Seems to be the same with most of these Disney starlets.—Kww(talk) 05:44, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

"Standard capitalization"

Well, if not the catholic Church to be an authority on its own name, then who is it to be? You? Who made you the authority on capitalization? Who gave you this power to say "the way I want is right, regardless of the official position".

What any particular church body believes to be correct is irrelevant, NemesisFY. The vast majority of sources call it the "Catholic Church", the "Roman Catholic Church", or the "Holy Roman Catholic Church".—Kww(talk) 22:48, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

List of professional wrestling organizations in Australia

The person redirecting the page is User:Justa Punk, who has repeatedly admitted to using sockpuppets to push his point of view about the lack of notability of Australian professional wrestling organizations, and has promised to continue creating sockpuppets to do so. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Justa Punk. GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:21, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

AfD frustration

Regarding how you felt about Calvin's arguments back here, just wanna say I know how you feel. As it turns out, Status ignored notability guidelines here and made points going against WP:CRYSTAL. I was quite surprised (and frustrated) to see how much all the evidence pointing to lack of notability was dismissed. Feel free to comment there if you'd like. Seems like (partial) Deja vu. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 05:35, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

@XXSNUGGUMSXX: You keep placing any arguments that I make into essays, and now you're saying I was making a crystal argument? The songs are already out. I said there was enough information available to have a satisfactory stand-alone article. I then said if they become singles, even more information could become available, so there is a chance that they could be expanded beyond a stub at some point in the future. It is in my opinion (which I am entitled to) that they do pass WP:GNG, and for some reason, you just can't seem to accept that. You can disagree with someone all you want, but there is absolutely no need to badger them about it. And now you're trying to get poor Kww involved, for what reason? As I said, if the closing admin does not like my reason, then they can feel free to discard it when determining whether or not to delete the articles. — Status (talk · contribs) 06:07, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

No, I'm saying I know how Kww felt with the Mariah Carey album AfD. He is free to comment/not comment. What frustrated me is how WP:GNG was incorrectly cited. Your arguments I gave those responses to because they are regarded as weak arguments. Article length isn't the only thing to consider. XXSNUGGUMSXX (talk) 06:13, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

User:Mitrabarun

Can you help us here? User:Mitrabarun, who you blocked, appears to claim you created User:MitrabarunMitra to discredit him. He won't give up, and as the blocking admin, I'd appreciate it if you could perhaps remove talk page access or something similar so he will stop. User talk:Mitrabarun is where he keeps acting up, especially under the last few unblock notices. Thank you, Origamite^{\(·_·\)(/·_·)/} 18:06, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

Your ping

Hi there, got your ping. Am I correct in understanding that the blocked user whose page you posted on was alleging that another account had been created to give the appearance of his socking and/or to otherwise harass him? Thought I'd bring it over here to get a better grip on the situation before diving in. Best, Risker (talk) 22:17, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

Risker, the basic situation is that the user chose to lie using his real name, got blocked for it, and now seems to be paying the price in real life. He's grasping at straws and telling yet more lies in an effort to get the account renamed. I won't stretch policy to help, but I know that you are more lenient that I am in these cases.—Kww(talk) 23:25, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

He claimed an enemy of his had made it and to just "check the logs" and since you were the blocking admin I think he assumed you made User:MitrabarunMitra. I'm honestly sick of it. Origamite^{\(·_·\)(/·_·)/} 00:48, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Kumioko's edit filter 608

I like what you did with the edit filter and how you restricted posting to AN. Its pretty broad though and stops a lot of legitimate edits. Plus, every time you all change it, someone sends me the code. Should I post it here for everyone to see how stupid and overreaching it is? Its not going to stop me from posting and all this nonsense of trying to manage my invalid and abusive ban is pointless and a waste of a lot of people time. Kumioko 172.56.2.154 (talk) 22:42, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

@Kww - Normally I would deleted the edits of a banned user on sight, especially one who exhibits no honor and no shame, but it seems to me that the information above could well be useful to whoever is in charge of the edit filter - I don't know who that is. If K's claim above that someone sends him the code whenever it's changed is true -- it's hard to tell since he's an inveterate liar and clearly is not totally in control of his perception of the world and his place in it -- then, if it's possible, it might be worthwhile to limit who can access the filter to a very small number of trusted people. I know nothing of filter codes, or of the security surrounding it, so please forgive me if I'm pointing out the obvious. BMK (talk) 22:56, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

I suspect he's bluffing, BMK. It's possible that we have an admin that has gone suffiently rogue to be forwarding him the details of the edit filter, but I doubt it. Despite his protestations, it actually hasn't blocked anyone but him.—Kww(talk) 23:28, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

• Kww, BMK, rest assured that Kumioko is lying about this. I won't go into too many details per WP:BEANS, but I am positive this is not true. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:38, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

  I am tempted to post one of the copies, but for your info, there have in fact been three different admins that sent me the filter at least once in the past. Its too bad if you don't believe me, I don't care, I don't have any respect for any of you anymore than you have respect for me If you cannot respect policy for admins then I don't care about it either. And BTW your edit filter doesn't really do much about my editing either obviously. Its just an abuse of the a tool to prevent me from commenting about abusive admins. Typical. Kumioko 172.56.2.146 (talk) 23:47, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

Ok since I can't edit the comment about my sockpuppet investigation I'll put it here. Sorry KWW, your filter is just too good for me to circumvent, I had no choice. Clearly BMK's comments don't matter to anyone since he isn't blocked and I haven't seen a talk page message so fine, if he can be allowed to throw insults and make comments about peoples family, then I have no reason not to take the gloves off. When you guys start enforcing policy against admins and shitheads like BMK, then I'll be glad to stop. I wished I didn't have to keep creating accounts and IP's but since you want to play this childish game of blocks and reverts I can too. Kumioko172.56.3.107 (talk) 00:54, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

• Kww - Someone might want to take a look at this edit by Kumioko, which was able to get through to User talk:Doc9871 when he couldn't get through to User talk:Writ Keeper -- just in case it might be useful for tweaking the filter. BMK (talk) 00:36, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Black listing or XLINKbot

Is it possible to get the this blacklisted or just have it removed by XLinkBot? Even though you've blocked the user who kept linking this, this is still being sourced by other users and IPs. Erick (talk) 06:57, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

The blocked Duke

Did you see his post about AGK at Jimbo's talk page? My response ruffled a couple of feathers (I just said it was discourteous not to notify AGK). I don't know if you want to say anything there about him being a sock. Dougweller (talk) 18:27, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

I think you should unblock the Duke, post haste, per WP:INVOLVED. Raise an SPI if you wish, but blocking someone who opposes your bot request is not a good idea. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 13:21, 14 May 2014 (UTC).

I'll stand behind the any reasonable admin would have done the same clause. There's no way that's a legitimate account.—Kww(talk) 14:46, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Additionally, Rich, I will remind you that undisclosed alternates are not permitted to take place in any community discussions. It doesn't matter who they are or what their edits are.—Kww(talk) 14:48, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

OK, that's news to me. WP:SOCK says

“ Undisclosed alternative accounts should not edit policies, guidelines, or their talk pages; comment in Arbitration proceedings; or vote in requests for adminship, deletion debates, or elections ”

Which is relatively tightly framed. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 18:57, 14 May 2014 (UTC).

I'll dig through and find out who changed the policy text, Rich. The underlying Arbcom decision is far broader:"Sockpuppet accounts are not to be used in discussions internal to the project, such as policy debates."—Kww(talk) 21:00, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom does not set policy nor make precedent, their "principles" are generally based in policy, but reasonably often they are just made up . All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 23:35, 14 May 2014 (UTC).

Tabloids

Greetings, Ol' chap! Edit wars are brewing over at I Am... Sasha Fierce. Can you take a look and weigh in on the talk page discussion? Apparently, folks are trying to pass tabloids (Daily Mail) as acceptable journalism on a GA level article. Cheers.--PeterGriffin • Talk2Me 00:15, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Petergriffin9901, your last remark in this message "presents the topic [of discussion] in a non-neutral manner." (WP:CANVASSING). Dan56 (talk) 02:30, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Educate yourself, Dan. This isn't a topic up for discussion. There is no where for it to sway. Placing a tabloid such as the [[Daily Mail] in a GA Class article is unacceptable. End of story. This is me requesting administrative assistance to explain it to the uneducated and fool-hearty.--PeterGriffin • Talk2Me 02:37, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Take this specific quote to WP:RSN and get a consensus as to its suitability. The Daily Mail is certainly borderline in terms of reliability, but in terms of such a trivial matter as characterizing the reviews of a Beyonce album it isn't blatantly unacceptable. I note that the album didn't fare well at Metacritic: it's at the bottom end of favorable, and the second highest review describes it as "a dance disc that can be played without gastric distress by any purchaser who isn't picky about diva gangstaism or videophone porn".—Kww(talk) 02:49, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

That's why I think using the metacritic score and their "generally mixed reviews" statement as far more suitable than quoting the Daily Mail.--PeterGriffin • Talk2Me 02:52, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

What "generally mixed reviews" statement? A score of 62 at Metacritic falls in their "Generally favorable reviews" range ([17]). Dan56 (talk) 02:54, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

My error. I still think that's the acceptable thing to have. If you disagree, find credible sources that back your statements, not one tabloid article.--PeterGriffin • Talk2Me 02:58, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

What "statements"? Dan56 (talk) 03:01, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Dan... I don't care what word you find to describe its critical commentary. I agree with you that lukewarm is appropriate. That's not the issue. I cannot allow a source like the Daily Mail be used for journalism; especially on a GA article. I could honestly care less about what word you use as long as its backed by a credible source. Is that so much to ask?--PeterGriffin • Talk2Me 09:41, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Lengthy 3RR complaint in which you commented

Hello Kww. See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:QuackGuru reported by User:Jayaguru-Shishya (Result: ). This is probably going to drift into the archives with no action unless some admin will take an interest. Since you've already commented there, perhaps you understand the issues? I am thinking of closing with a one-month full protection of Chiropractic, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. This would be intended to force dicussion, and would allow changes via editprotect. Do you have any comment on that idea? Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 19:43, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

You can be kinder with your corrections of other editors

…in particular, gentler in language (using standard warning templates, or following their lead vis-a-vis collegiality), and citing WP policies as applicable. Blocks, and threats of blocks, are last resorts in modifying editor behaviour here, are they not? Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 16:08, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

I see no reason to disguise the fact that I will block someone on the next infraction, and I firmly believe in not using templates when warning editors.—Kww(talk) 16:12, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

Agreed, most recent correction had nothing to do with 3RR instead was incorrectly suggesting that the 3RR was based on advancing a pseudoscientific POV as opposed to reporting what was believed to be a 3RR issue. Since Kww is making the claim, I would like to see the evidence that supports that claim. This is the third time, all by different editors, who have commented on Kww's language and interpretation of the events. DVMt (talk) 15:12, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

3RR report closed

Greetings! You left me a message at my Talk Page concerning the 3RR report that I filed earlier. You said:

This is to inform you that an edit-warring noticeboard report in which you were involved has been closed. It is to further notify you that at the next sign of edit-warring on any pseudoscience related articles, including all alternative medicine articles, you will be blocked indefinitely.—Kww(talk) 03:45, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

.

I don't quite understand. Since when I have been the one edit warring here? I filed the complaint against QuackGuru, and the diffs show that he was the one making constant reverts even despite of his warnings by other administrators. If you look at my editing history at Chiropractic, Traditional Chinese medicine, or Acupuncture, you can't find any edit warring behaviour there from my side.

How come I am the one being warned here? 1) I haven't been involved in any edit war, 2) I reported a user that actually did, 3) user QuackGuru hasn't received any warning from you even the diffs demonstrated his edit warring behaviour. Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 13:25, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi! I am not sure if you have my page on your Watchlist, but I just replied to your message there. Cheers! Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 14:02, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Greetings! Could you please provide me the diffs for my supposed "furthering of pseudoscientific POVs" at the administrative noticeboards, as you claimed at my Talk Page? As I have already explained before, there is absolutely no POV pushing from my side at the 3RR report I filed, and therefore I think it'd be fair that you take another look at it and pull back the warning you gave me. Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 19:10, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Also, you involved yourself into a WP:ANI -case[19] filed by user QuackGuru (who was the very subject of my 3RR report). He accused me of following him to other articles. You concluded the report for QuackGuru giving me a warning, even despite of the facts that:

• User QuackGuru never provided any proof of me "following him to other articles"
• I asked QuackGuru to provide a complete list of supposed articles I have been following him to. QuackGuru refused to answer.
• You didn't provide any proof, diffs or explanations for your warning based on QuackGuru's allegations.

So far, it seems that you gave me another warning without any evidence displayed. I don't feel like I've been treated farily here, and that's why I am kindly asking you to take another look at it again. Cheers! Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 19:25, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

User:Jayaguru-Shishya, you falsely accused me of violating the 3RR rule.[20][21] and you made a bogus 3RR report. See Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/3RRArchive245#User:QuackGuru_reported_by_User:Jayaguru-Shishya_.28Result:_DvMT_and_Jayaguru-Shishya_warned.29. See Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive841#User:Jayaguru-Shishya_is_not_moving_on_and_he_is_continuing_his_battleground_behaviour. Do you agree you made a mistake? Do you agree you will stop following me to other articles? If you don't agree to stop following me then I think a topic ban for pseudoscience related articles is appropriate. I asked you before to stop following me. See User talk:Jayaguru-Shishya/Archive 1#Please stop following me to other articles and undoing my edits. You first edit to both articles[22][23] was to revert my edit. See WP:HOUND. QuackGuru (talk) 19:48, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Falsely, how? The diffs are provided at the report.

Please provide a complete list of the supposed articles I have been following you to. So far, you have refused to provide such list. We are editing Chiropractic, Traditional Chinese medicine and Acupuncture in common at the time.

You have not agreed to collaborate even though my several requests, latest: [24]. Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 20:24, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

You are still refusing to except you made a bogus 3RR report. I provided evidence you are following me. It has become apparent you are not here to build encyclopedia. QuackGuru (talk) 20:32, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Genre warrior

Hello Kww, an editor doesn't want to stop changing genres to suit his/her own point of view. He/She also attacked me on my own talk page, calling me a vandal and accusing me using multiple IP adresses to revert him/her (NB : the IP adress you can see on this link doesn't belong to me, someone else simply decided to revert this user before I've got the time to do so). I warned this editor on his/her talk page but I think it is not enough. Should I do something else ? Or can you take a look at him/her please ? Synthwave.94 (talk) 19:59, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

The problem here, Synthwave.94, is that I don't see that your edits are any better sourced than his. If you think your genres are better than his, provide sources to back them up. If you can show me an editor reverting sourced changes to install his personal opinion, I will take action.—Kww(talk) 00:27, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Excuse me ? I never intended changing genres without any source at all ! I simply noticed an user was altering genres to suit his/her own point of view, that's it ! Here's an example. Synthwave.94 (talk) 00:30, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

That one is a simple removal: you removed an unsourced genre and left an unsourced genre in it's place. Here, however, you changed one unsourced on to another unsourced one]]. Like you did here, too. Provide sources for what you leave in or add, and I will get excited. Otherwise, it's just two editors arguing about whose opinion is better.—Kww(talk) 00:36, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Uh ? I simply corrected a link, I didn't alter any genre at all. I did the same thing at Firework and I was thanked for this. Changing a link and changing a genre is different. I changed a link ; The Real One Returns changed genres without any explanation (see I Was Here for example). Are you able to see the difference between these two edits ?
