Here's the relevant passage from Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming: Adding links to online free videos that promote a site or product is not allowed.... A video is a spamming video if: ...

  • It has links on the video page—the page that plays the video—that go to a commercial site or to another spamming video, even if it is only one link among many legitimate links....
  • It has text at this video page that would lead readers to a specific commercial site.... --Orange Mike 02:57, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Links/Ref to www.groomgroove.com

i'm not sure why you are removing my post to best man. I'm getting married, and I thought this was a good reference - not only the article I cite but the groomgroove website in general. It's the only one out there! give over!

I was removing it because it appeared to be link spam and was coming from an IP user, the linked site does not appear to pass WP:EL and there are issues about citation WP:REF reliability WP:RS. As a result I concluded it was spam. If it was a good faith inclusion I appolgize. Monty845 03:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Block of User:Davesmith33

Good point, his repeated addition of the protection template and removal of other user's warnings although illogical and probably disruptive don't seem to fall under the current vandalism criteria. I'll let other, more experienced admins have a look at this in the block review. TimVickers 18:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Threatening of block for taking back contributions

I started a discussion on the "Club Car" article, and never got a response, and it was retagged after I "Wikified" it or whatever that is, and the tag reappeared. I edited it down the the very basic info. I created the Yamaha Golf Car article and it was butchered by tags, so I thought I would take my contributions back as I don't feel this place is fit for them. I get a block threat for taking my work back. Real nice.......

The prefered method of removing content is threw the deletion process. Blanking of pages out of frustration is never the solution. (though blanking is approriate for copyright violations/liable/etc) Monty845 19:14, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

User talk:69.132.199.100

I saw your comments on this page. In general, you are right that in general removal of warnings from talkpages is not strictly prohibited, although it is often discouraged and IP users are sometimes given lesser leeway than registered contributors in this regard. There are some specific concerns dealing with this particular userpage, but they are not relevant to the general principle. Newyorkbrad 19:59, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm going to modify your posting on HD DVD encryption key controversy because it is editorializing too much and navelgazing at Wikiepdia politics. Just a forewarning, and also to discuss the changes. Cheers. -- Fuzheado | Talk 17:03, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Richard Ridgeway

During your persicution (in the lightest sence) of DBottino with the Berwick Academy page, you did some reasearch on Mr. Ridgeway's supposed death. I have to say that was a pointless waste of your time. It was just a small joke gone crazy, and we were going to change it anywaze. Also i had tried to tell you before that Mr. Ridgeway was not dead so you didn't get involved to much, but i couldn't reach you in time.

WP:Hornbook -- a new law-related task force for the J.D. curriculum

Hi Monty845/Archive 1,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

  • Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
  • It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
  • Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.
  • I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.
2. If you're a law student,
(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)
3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Regards, Andrew Gradman talk/WP:Hornbook 02:07, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Reviewer permission

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:06, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

The best thing you can do if want to protect the article from deletion is to find sources that establish his notability (the term on wikipedia for whether a person is Important). In other words, magazine or newspaper stories that talk about HIM not just some of his work. Find sources that help prove he is important enough to justify an article, and either add them to the article, or provide links at the AFD deletion discussion. You can also check WP:BIO for details about how notability is considered. Monty845 03:26, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

keep

I see that the 2nd nomination (this is the third) was speedy keep by a non administrator. You may do the same. Kewlarticle (talk) 03:09, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

If you want to withdraw your AFD nomination, just say so in the AFD, and someone should close it shortly, as I've already commented in it, I don't think it would be appropriate for me to do so. Monty845 03:14, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I can't because I think if I withdraw it, then it is a keep so I can't decide on it myself. Besides, I did it as a favor for the person who blanked it out. Rather than arguing, I just let everyone decide by the regular process. If I did the submission wrong, say, like I didn't follow a minor instruction, please correct it for me. It does look like the others so I probably did it right. Kewlarticle (talk) 03:32, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Without getting in to whether you should have listed them, the technical aspects of the listing seem correct. (I did not check to see if you have notified significant contributors to the articles, if you haven't you may want to if the AFD is going to keep going) Monty845 03:37, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Artuir mac Áedán article

Hello Monty845, I didn't know exactly were I could talk about my article review, so I choose your talk page. I apologize for the intrusion.

I read the reasons my article was not accepted and I rewrote it using my own words, thus I got more distant from the source I supported my research. I organized my article following my source, and because I haven't time to fully write it, I ended repeating it at almost all the article. The article still structured following the source, but is now written by myself. I hope it can be accepted now.

thank you, Galdaran (talk) 03:48, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

Revision history of Wally Schirra

Your anti-vandalism program is saying that battle cruiser is the correct ship type for the Alaska class cruiser, when it is clearly designated a large cruiser, hence the CB classification, which is the official United States Navy classification. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.130.122.21 (talk) 18:39, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

My apologies, actually that was me doing it manually through the program, I was under the mistaken impression that battle cruiser was the commonly accepted term for the ship type, but after checking the articles, you are right. The ships were originally designated 'large cruiser' and the battle cruiser designation is a more modern construct, as mentioned on one of the references on the class of ship "some modern historians argue that the class should really be classified as battlecruisers". Sorry for reverting your edit, and keep up the good editing. Monty845 18:46, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Diary of a Bad Man

I re-added the A7 CSD, keeping your PROD in place. This article has been created three times from different accounts and consistently deleted, lacking indication of importance or significance. A large number of views is not indicative of significance or importance. It is also not a reflection of policy or guidelines. While I appreciate your initiative, when met with subjective analysis, please contact the editor that placed the initial deletion tag. There may be issues regarding the article and/or subject of which you may not be aware. Collaboration helps to identify these issues. You should also check article/deletion history to help identify any possible issues. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me. Best regards, Cind.amuse 20:02, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

  • I think that a claim that the channel has received 13 Million views is sufficient to be considered has having indicated "why its subject is important or significant". This article has never been deleted following a deletion discussion, and all the past deletions are for A7. It remains my assessment that the article passes the very low standard to survive an A7. It is doubtful that the article would survive an AFD debate, but I don't think that is dispositive when it comes to a CSD A7. Likewise, that the article has previously been deleted A7 should not prejudice the article as a delete after discussion would have. I will leave your CSD intact so that another person can make the determination, but I believe policy to be on my side here, and that a speedy delete is not approriate. Monty845 20:13, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
    • Well, here's Johnny-come-lately: I have removed the tag, for reasons given above which I do believe are credible--13 million is a lot. If this needs to be salted, it can be done so after an AfD review. Given that this is certainly not obvious vandalism, I think AfD is the way to go if this is to be deleted, though I won't remove the PROD. Drmies (talk) 20:17, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
      • I have no objection if anyone wants to kill my prod to go straight to AFD so that a discussion can occur, and any subsequent recreations can be deleted G4 or Salted. Monty845 20:28, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
        • Maybe a better choice would have been for me to simply send the article for discussion. It didn't appear controversial or even borderline until the PROD was placed. Four different people have previously reviewed the article and determined that it qualified for deletion according to the A7 criteria. After the third recreation, another editor shares a different view and discredits the assessments of the others, followed by placing a PROD. 13 million views may be a lot to one person and not to another. It's all relative. I think the subjective nature of significance and importance is one of the issues that spur new editors to recreate articles numerous times following subsequent deletions and more creations. There's always a hope that someone else will come along and interpret the guidelines differently, thereby saving the article from deletion, if only temporarily. I sense the creator of the article is somewhat getting jerked around a bit. If s/he has a sense of humor, he may be getting quite a chuckle (I know I am). With all due respect, I think it's unfortunate that the editor has received a conflicting message. For this reason, I'm not going to remove the PROD. At this point, the need for consistency overrides. Let's just wait for the PROD to end it's run. If it's not removed, it's all good. If it is removed, we'll be back where we started. It's the nature of the beast. BTW, I removed the Ambassador template I had inadvertently placed above. I wrote my comment above in another window and evidently picked up some extra text. I also intended to place the comment on my own talk page. I think I ended up going to sleep shortly thereafter. Much needed sleep. Thank you, Drmies for popping in with a third eye. Best regards, Cind.amuse 15:04, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
          • The mixed messages thing is a valid point, and maybe I should have gone straight to an AFD instead of replacing with a prod. As for the assessments of the other users and admins who determined it met the criteria for A7, as far as I know, there is no good way for me to determine if the deleted versions were the same or had even less of an assertion of notability. Monty845 17:55, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
            • It's all good. Another admin came by and made the A7 deletion. The creator came by earlier before deletion and removed the PROD as representative of actions made for the previous articles. The PROD was then weirdly replaced by another admin, then later A7 deleted by yet another admin. Doesn't say too much about the credibility of the deletion process here. If you catch the next creation, I would recommend an AFD discussion, and if deleted, recommend a shaking of salt. Cind.amuse 11:58, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi. I would be interested to know how you think that one short interview in a blog satisfies any of the criteria set out in WP:ARTIST. While the original CSD was certainly debatable, criteria are judged much more stringently in an AfD. One weak assertion of possible notability simply isn't enough. Taroaldo (talk) 23:46, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

I've replied in detail at the AFD regarding the notability issue, I will just mention here that I think the article clearly has a strong enough claim of notability that A7 is not applicable regardless of its merits under the stricter notability guidelines. Monty845 00:06, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Grant Humes AfD

Hello User:Monty845! Thanks for getting in touch with me on this subject. Despite my experience on the site, I'm not very skilled at deletion templates, so thanks for clarifying.

My opinion on this issue, as with other articles on political candidates who aren't already notable for other things, comes from Wikipedia:Notability where it says: "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability". The sources for the article are from the Liberal Party and Humes' own website, and therefore are not independent of the article's subject. If Mr. Humes wins in Durham, then of course we'll create an article, but for now, he doesn't fit the notability criteria.

Bkissin (talk) 19:59, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

I agree the article in its current form doesn't meet the regular notability guidelines, though I would not be surprised if you ended up needing to take it to WP:AFD for a final disposition. But you never know, good luck on your prod. Monty845 20:05, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

I also intended to place the comment on my own talk page. I think I ended up going to sleep shortly thereafter. Much needed sleep. Thank you, Drmies for popping in with a third eye. Best regards, Cind.amuse 15:04, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
          • The mixed messages thing is a valid point, and maybe I should have gone straight to an AFD instead of replacing with a prod. As for the assessments of the other users and admins who determined it met the criteria for A7, as far as I know, there is no good way for me to determine if the deleted versions were the same or had even less of an assertion of notability. Monty845 17:55, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
            • It's all good. Another admin came by and made the A7 deletion. The creator came by earlier before deletion and removed the PROD as representative of actions made for the previous articles. The PROD was then weirdly replaced by another admin, then later A7 deleted by yet another admin. Doesn't say too much about the credibility of the deletion process here. If you catch the next creation, I would recommend an AFD discussion, and if deleted, recommend a shaking of salt. Cind.amuse 11:58, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

Faith47

Hi. I would be interested to know how you think that one short interview in a blog satisfies any of the criteria set out in WP:ARTIST. While the original CSD was certainly debatable, criteria are judged much more stringently in an AfD. One weak assertion of possible notability simply isn't enough. Taroaldo (talk) 23:46, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

I've replied in detail at the AFD regarding the notability issue, I will just mention here that I think the article clearly has a strong enough claim of notability that A7 is not applicable regardless of its merits under the stricter notability guidelines. Monty845 00:06, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Grant Humes AfD

Hello User:Monty845! Thanks for getting in touch with me on this subject. Despite my experience on the site, I'm not very skilled at deletion templates, so thanks for clarifying.

My opinion on this issue, as with other articles on political candidates who aren't already notable for other things, comes from Wikipedia:Notability where it says: "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability". The sources for the article are from the Liberal Party and Humes' own website, and therefore are not independent of the article's subject. If Mr. Humes wins in Durham, then of course we'll create an article, but for now, he doesn't fit the notability criteria.

Bkissin (talk) 19:59, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

I agree the article in its current form doesn't meet the regular notability guidelines, though I would not be surprised if you ended up needing to take it to WP:AFD for a final disposition. But you never know, good luck on your prod. Monty845 20:05, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism

Please comment on my talk page. Turning (The Daily Caller is a political journalism website based in Washington, D.C., United States with a focus on original reporting and breaking news, ) into (The Daily Caller is a yellow journalism website based in Washington, D.C., United States with a focus on politics, original reporting, breaking news, neoconservative ideology, and YouTube videos,) with no sourcing is not an edit war action. It is mere vandalism. Sugar-Baby-Love (talk) 20:49, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of Sex/Absurd for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Sex/Absurd is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sex/Absurd until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. roleplayer 23:42, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Child Rights Information Network

Hi Monty,

It seems you have rejected edits that we made to the page on our organization, the Child Rights Information Network (http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Child_Rights_Information_Network) because of concerns of copyright violation. The changes we made to page were to correct misinformation, we believe as a result of vandalism, that wrongly identified CRIN as following a conservative Christian ideology. As you can see from our website (http://crin.org/about/index.asp), we do not have a religious affiliation and do not advocate on such matters; hence, the changes we made were to correct the erroneous information supplied in bad faith by a previous editor. The language we have now inserted is taken directly from our Mission Statement (again available on our "About Us" page: http://crin.org/about/index.asp), and as the copyright holder, we have fully authorized its use.

We certainly appreciate your efforts to combat vandalism, but in the future, would be grateful if you could refrain from rejecting changes made by our user names (veroyates and jennycrin) to our page.

Kind regards,

CRIN — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jennycrin (talk • contribs) 14:54, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I will ask someone with experience on copyright permission verification to take a look at it. Monty845 16:36, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

db-meta/sandbox

Hi Monty. I see you're testing out the AfD notification (which I supported) in the sandbox. I just thought you should be aware that db-meta has changed vastly recently, and the version you are testing it in is quite outdated. You might try copying the entire text of the current db-meta, replacing the text at the sandbox with that, then trying out your new code, so that you know what it might actually look like. Also note that the meta template provides different text when it is on pages that have existing talk pages, as opposed to those that don't so you might want to preview your changes on those two types of pages. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 17:54, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

I was aware of the changes, but your right, while I was figuring it would not likely be an issue in light of the change I want, better to be safe and test with the latest version. Thanks, Monty845 17:56, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Defence of Flaming Ferrari

Again, I revert vandalism, retaliation is not a justification for vandalism. Monty845 18:59, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Please note, I removed Greer Garson from the notable alumni section of King's College London, as this section is not intended to be a comprehensive list, but rather a snap shot of the College's most famous alumni past and present. There are lots of famous people, Greer Garson included, who do not feature in the main article, but who do appear in the more expansive List of King's College London alumni which includes somewhere in the region of 700 names. Clearly it is not possible to include all of these in the main College article. --Flaming Ferrari (talk) 15:10, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Just to be extra clear, I did not intend to suggest there was anything wrong with your edits at all, just that my reversion of the vandalism was unrelated. Monty845 19:43, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi Monty, Thanks for creating the Jose Rey de la Torre redirect page for me. I have created redirect pages myself before, but it's been so long, I'd forgotten how! So that's why I submitted the redirect request. The coding part is easy -- I just couldn't recall how to create a brand-new page, so I used the article wizard/request form, since I couldn't find any Help info on actually creating a new Wiki page. If I had more time today, I could probably find the info....at any rate, thanks! Joanne McAllister (talk) 22:02, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

User 99.25.219.55

Hi. If I understand correctly, this IP-anon was not in fact claiming to have blocked Mystylplx. Rather, he/she is claiming that Mystylplx is a sock of Griot (talk · contribs), who was indef-blocked in 2008 (see WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Griot/Archive). I agree that his/her comment was very confusingly phrased; he/she posted an identical notice to my talk page, and I initially assumed it was vandalism and deleted it, and only after seeing your warning on the IP-anon's talk page did I finally figure out what was really going on. I put something on the IP-anon's talk page just now, explaining that if he/she believes Mystylplx is a sock, he/she needs to lodge his/her complaint (with evidence) at WP:SPI in order for any action to be taken on it. Richwales (talk · contribs) 07:46, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi. I declined the PROD on this page. Per WP:CRIME, when the perpetrator's "motivation for the crime ... is unusual". The source listed said "There's not much precedent for the Vargas case....there are no numbers parsing how many of those boys grow up to kill their abusers." I'd call that unusual. You could take to AfD if you want. I'm going to start editing it for NPOV and what not in the mean time.--v/r - TP 20:08, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Well, I can see your point, but I'm not really convinced it is unusual enough to pass. However I will let it go,(without starting an AfD) and see if anyone else thinks it should be deleted, as I admit your position is not unreasonable. Monty845 20:10, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
Alright, thanks. I'm not entirely convinced it merits an article either. If you stumble over it in a week and it doesn't look much better, feel free to PROD it again or AfD it.--v/r - TP 20:14, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Advanced Direct page

Hi,

This new page is intended to state facts about our company, not sell our services. If you have suggestions on how to make it less "ambiguously advertising" then I would appreciate the feedback. It is my goal to include Advanced Direct among Wikipedia listings, not sell our services.

Thank you, Keatonunc (talk) 21:37, 29 June 2011 (UTC)Keatonunc

Basically, the problem is that the article has lots of positive verbiage, but doesn't really say much. Phrases like "ADI is a leading direct marketing solutions provider to regional and national firms across a broad spectrum of industries." are extremely promotional, but don't really tell the reader any encyclopedic information. It is also important to provide reliable sources to support the article. What you want to do is provide references to media coverage of the company, and try to limit what is in the article to things that have been covered by that media. Finally, be careful when it comes to conflicts of interest (link to policy) as it can be hard to right a neutral article about something your involved with. If your article is deleted, I would suggest submitting to WP:Articles for Creation next time, so that someone can review your article and point out any problems without it being subject to speedy deletion. Monty845 21:43, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
Let me also mention that it can be tricky to make it clear why the company is important without being overly promotional, but the best way is to keep it to the bare facts, and then show that the company is notable WP:CORP by using reliable sources WP:RS as references for those facts. Monty845 21:48, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

Yes, we were edit-conflicted on that stray HV reference! I enjoyed using Special:Nuke, don't get to do it often enough... </wicked grin> I've asked for a checkuser at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/LadyLashes to flush out any sleepers, but it's not the end of the world if the checkusers don't think it's warranted. The singer's name might be one to check for occasionally, though, to see whether it's being added to other articles. Thanks, BencherliteTalk 00:02, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

Xbox Wonder Games

Does the above need to have a seperate AfD request submitted or will it be dealt with once Xbox Wonder has been dealt with.--Skamecrazy123 (talk) 18:01, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Assuming you have no objection to my tacking it on to your AfD nomination, I think it can be dealt with as a bundled AfD nomination and deleted without a separate AfD. Monty845 18:02, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
Wikipedia:AFD#How_to_list_multiple_related_pages_for_deletion doesn't technically say I'm allowed to add a bundled nomination to a nomination started by someone else, but again, if you have no objection, I don't see why not. Monty845 18:05, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
So it would be best for me to submit a separate AfD then? For simplicitys sake? --Skamecrazy123 (talk) 18:10, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
Well, if you would prefer to, go for it, (we can remove my bundle nomination and I'll just comment on the new one) but I don't think it is strictly necessary. Monty845 18:12, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
I am more than happy to go with the bundle nomination (having re-read what you have put on the AfD) so long as it doesn't get you into trouble. --Skamecrazy123 (talk) 18:15, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
Worst case, someone objects and we do the separate nomination, but I doubt anyone will. Monty845 18:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Punky Vandalism

Hello Monty845, Would it be possible to block user Punky Downs or 87.194.131.24. Looking at the talk pages, that ip address only contributes vandalism and the Punky Downs user name is probably the same individual trying to disguise themselves.ClintMalpaso (talk) 20:00, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

I'm not an admin, so I can't block people, that said, User:Punky Downs is probably a vandalism only account, if they vandalize anymore they can probably be reported to WP:AIV. Generally the approach is to give editors 4 escalating warnings (unless they are doing something particularly bad), it informs them of policy, gives them a chance to stop, and avoids bothering admins to block people who are just making a couple bad edits and will stop on their own. The easiest thing to do is to just issue the escalating warnings each time the vandalize, if once properly warned the 4 times, they vandalize again, they will certainly be blocked, while if reported early as a vandalism only account, it really depends on which admins are patrolling AIV. Again, at this point, I would say it is not worth pursuing unless they use the account again. Monty845 20:35, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for advice, didn't know the procedure.ClintMalpaso (talk) 19:12, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Palazzo Foscari

Hello, I have not much time to spend on Wiki, so I am not that skilled: I hope I am posting this message to Monty845 in the right place! I live in Venice, Italy and I noted quite a confusion and missing entries in the list of the Venetian palaces. For instance: in real life, there are 3 buildings named Palazzo Foscari, not just one: the biggest one is commonly known as Ca' Foscari, but this is no reason why the entry Ca' Foscari palace or Ca' Foscari, should automatically redirect to Palazzo Foscari. As I'd like to build up the page of an alternative Palazzo Foscari, I guessed there was no other way than creating a disambiguation page for it - which I tried to do, sorry if I did not follow a procedure. Thank you for pointing this out, I opened the procedure description page but as a non-native English speaker it reads quite complicated to me :( so can I ask you here what can be done, and how? It seems so simple to me. I suggest to create a disambiguation page for Palazzo Foscari listing the existing entries: 1) Ca' Foscari Palace and 2) Ca' Foscari University of Venice with their same content, and the other Palazzo Foscari's. The disambiguation page will allow building up other pages, such as the missing one for the Palazzo Foscari listed in: [[6]]

The same disambiguation should be created in many other similar situations. (hope it is clear) many thanks. --Globe.explorer (talk) 17:31, 10 July 2011 (UTC)Globe.explorer

I have made the move request on your behalf at Talk:Palazzo_Foscari#Requested_move_to_Ca.27_Foscari_Palace. Feel free to indicate your support there, and if you have anything additional you want to add feel free. Monty845 17:42, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Very kind of yours, appreciated it. --Globe.explorer (talk) 11:59, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
Very sorry to bother you again. I found out that my question was not clear. referring again to the same request which you kindly posted on my behalf: I only intended to request a Disambiguation page for Palazzo Foscari, not a change for the Ca' Foscari page (I am amazed by the amount of time spent on such talks by people without knowing what they are talking about, and ending up to nothing btw. can't they volunteer on something more productive?).

So, your advice again please: can I expect this time it is all right? many many thanks :) --Globe.explorer (talk) 22:15, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

--Hi! i really dont know why you change my contibution to this page, i really belive in neutral point of view, but, you delete and oly leave your version, think about it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.33.161.74 (talk) 20:51, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

In my opinion your edit was extremely biased. It is a farce to call the invasion of Tibet a liberation, and the rest of the edit was similarly biased, and was way out of line. Monty845 20:54, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

In point of view of Mainland China, is a liberation, but maybe in the west you dont think in the same way...think in war between Union and Confederation in the USA, or the civil war in the ex-Yugoslavia, or even the invasion of Irak, only the wesy think that is a war. Say only the point of view of one of the parts in in some degree offesive for all chinese. In internet and special in wikipedia, we all try to search all points of view, and all must be free to read, all views, and leave the decision to the people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.33.161.74 (talk) 21:08, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

It of course comes down to your view of the justification for the conflict, but generally when liberation is used, it means that a territory which had been taken by force has been taken back. Here, a nation that had been independent for decades was conquered in a war of aggression. In that light, I think it is relatively fair to refer to it as an invasion. Similarly, increasing the size of the Tibetian force by 100 fold seems designed to make the Chinese victory seem greater, rather then bullying the grossly out numbered defenders.

What is a "still active topic ban"? In puzzlement, your friend, GeorgeLouis (talk) 02:23, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

The editor who made the nomination, for other reasons, had been placed under a topic ban on all BLP related edits, was still under the topic ban at the time the nomination was made, and the nomination fell within the scope of the ban. I called it a "still active topic ban" in an attempt to make it clear that the topic ban was still in force, and had not yet expired. It was an issue unique to that particular nominator, and I presume the ban has now expired in relation to the nominator as well. Hope that clarifies things. Monty845 03:41, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi Monty you said on the page "Pierre Lewis" that Vandlism is not a reason for deletion, so I researched this and found "Reasons for deletion include, but are not limited to, the following (subject to the condition that improvement or deletion of an offending section, if practical, is preferable to deletion of an entire page):

Copyright violations and other material violating Wikipedia's non-free content criteria Vandalism, including inflammatory redirects, pages that exist only to disparage their subject"

Which states Vandalism is a reason for deletion. Please could you clarify?

Hi Monty, I'm seeing hundreds of edits by Mbiama Assogo Roger removing the links to social capital. Is this vandalism?--Miguel AG(complain) 23:41, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

I've asked them on their talk page, I can't think of a good reason for having done so. Pending a response, I would say either a mistake or vandalism. Will see if a response is forthcoming. Monty845 23:44, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

RiskVal

Hi there. I noticed you placed an {{advert}} tag on this article. I removed it as I fail to see how a one-line company description and a 1-line, cited, award mention could *possibly* be construed as an advert... I am watching the page just in case it does indeed turn that way, as per many other company pages created by new users, but to tag it as such with only 2 lines present seems a bit bitey to me. Nikthestoned 14:24, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

It was a combination of the rather generic "provides solutions in risk management, pricing, and portfolio management", and the lack of substance, in my view it looks like an ad or directory listing. It really doesn't have an encyclopedic information, other then the one award they won. Not the strongest case for the tag, but I still think it is appropriate. Monty845 14:29, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
It's an hour-old WIP by a brand new user... In no way does it deserve an advert tag! (Yet, anyways...) Nikthestoned 15:07, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
Perhaps, but they claim to have a full grasp on article guidelines with the use of {{newpage}}. To be consistent with that tag, we shouldn't consider them as a brand new user. Monty845 15:10, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

CSD A7 on Eliza Swenson

Hi, just for clarification: I realised that the CSD A7 tag was somewhat overzealous, and was preparing to remove it; The Mark of the Beast had retagged it, and I had not reviewed the history. I thought it inappropriate to fail to restore the tag, as a result. Archaios (talk) 23:51, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Eliza Swenson

Is it your opinion that any actor in any movie (even ones which go direct to video) are notable enough that a db-bio isn't appropriate? You do realize that the original creator of the article has removed the db tag twice, and will, in all likelihood, remove the prod tag, which means this will all go to AfD anyway. The Mark of the Beast (talk) 23:47, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

I realize that it may end up at AfD, but I have had good luck with prods, often the creator will wander off and not remove the prod. If you would like to skip the prod, I wont mind if you replace my prod with an AfD. (and if the prod is challenged I will take it to AfD if someone doesn't beat me to it) As for the claim of importance, some of the films she was involved in have their own articles, so they are not entirely obscure, she is even mentioned in some sources that discuss the films, even if it isn't coverage sufficient for notability. Personally, I read claim of importance to be extremely broad, and I think the article passes it. Monty845 23:54, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
As I predicted, the originator has removed your prod. I have now taken it to AfD. Expect the afd tag to be removed once or twice. The Mark of the Beast (talk) 01:36, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
Well, you now appear to be correct on both counts, AfD tag was removed. Monty845 20:27, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Quidditch

excuse me. you reverted my change claiming it was bad. it most certainly was not vandalism. step off. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.180.55.22 (talk)

My apologies, I hope you can understand that adding something like quidditch to the lists of sports played at a University without comment or reference looks very suspicious. In response to your comment, I have looked into the matter, and it appears to be a good faith edit. I'm not sure quidditch really qualifies as a club sport at Vassar, that isn't a vandalism issue, just a question of opinion that can be sorted out. Monty845 16:54, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Talk:emjayfal

Why did you blank out my entire article, instead of deleting the copyright protected reviews. I put a lot of work into that article, and you just destroyed it without cause. And why is it that my corrected version is still sitting in the queu 40 hours later? Shouldn't it have priority over more recent pending articles?

AFC

Why did you blank out my entire article? Couldn't you have just deleted the reviews that were copyright protected? And why has it been 40 hours since anyone has reviewed my corrected article? Souldn't my article take priority over articles that have been in the queu for only a few minutes? Emjayfal (talk) 18:05, 9 September 2011 (UTC) emjayfal

First, you should know that as the submission was only blanked, you can access all of the content that was previously in the article from the article history. Second, it looked to me that most or all of the article was a copyright violation, When 80% of the article is a copyright violation where you can directly identify the source it was copied from, there is a strong suspicion that the remaining content may have similar issues, even if a source for them cannot be found. Even in the sections that could not be sourced to a specific copyright violation, there were indications that the other text was at least copy pasted from somewhere, combined with its tone, which reads like a review rather then an encyclopedic discussion of the topic, it was my conclusion that it was best to blank the whole thing as a copyvio. As for your complaint about the speed of AFC reviews, remember that we are all volunteers. It is up to individual reviewers to select the order in which they choose to review submissions, and often reviewers will handle several simple cases to reduce the queue size, rather then spend a substantial amount of time on a more difficult submission to review. There is currently a submission in the queue that has been there for 2 full weeks, yours has only been there a a day or two. There are 124 articles currently waiting review, so you will just have to be patient. Monty845 18:35, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

I see that a bot warned the editor, and you yourself quite patiently warned at least three tims not to remove the AFD template.... and the article history shows he chooses not to listen. I see that others have done so, and I have just myself returned the AFD template to the article on Eliza Swenson again. So far we have this errant newcomer removing the proposed deletion tag once and the AFD template 8 times,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13] with the last incident being some few hours after your "final warning". Time for an admin to temp block to end the disruption until the AFD is concluded. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 07:33, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

ANI filed requesting a temp block. Editor notified.[14] Regards, Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 07:47, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Hey Monty! I have a question.

I love the idea of userboxes, and i have a lot of them, but how do you make them without the code being really really long? Or how do you make them at all? Legolover26 (talk) 17:18, 20 September 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Legolover26 (talk • contribs) 17:14, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

To answer your second question first, there is a pretty extensive guide to making userboxes available at Wikipedia:Userboxes/Design and construct. What you would do if you don't want to clutter your userbox page with the code of any userboxes you make, is you create the userbox itself as a subpage in your userspace, and then you can transclude it into your main page like you do any other userbox. The userbox code may still be long, but it will be on the self contained page. If I haven't fully understood your question, feel free to explain it further. Monty845 17:21, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

RE: Blanking redirect at Travis d'Arnaud

I blanked the page in efforts to move a different, incorrectly named page to this location. The subject's name is 'Travis d'Arnaud', and yet the article based on him is very incorrectly labeled 'Travis D' Arnaud'. If you could make the move for me, it would be greatly appreciated. The article can be found here: Travis D' Arnaud and the new location to which I want to move the article can be found here: Travis d'Arnaud .

Can I just ask for a speedy deletion instead?

I can post a new article over the redirect on the page with the correct spelling, and the older, misspelled page can be deleted. Es0terick (talk) 17:24, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Mystery

On September 23rd, traffic to Portal:James Bond doubled, and has stayed at the new level since then. I can't figure out what happened.

See http://stats.grok.se/en/201109/Portal%3AJames_Bond

Traffic to Outline of James Bond stayed the same (though it was at the higher-level already), which leads me to suspect changes made somewhere in Wikipedia.

See http://stats.grok.se/en/201109/Outline%20of%20James_Bond

Your Alternative Outline Article Proposal

Your Alternative Outline Article Proposal seemed to have virtually unanimous support, but the person who made the original proposal has closed it. I feel that if you were to propose your alternative again, as a separate proposal, it would have a good chance of succeeding. My feeling is that, whether an article is called an "outline" or "list" or not, breaking an article up into major subtopics which are linked to separate standalone articles is a better solution than merging many standalone articles into a single humongous article, as per the Emergency Management example that I cited.

It is not a matter of opinion. The page is NOT a list of personnel, it is a list of commanders, case closed.Hoops gza (talk) 20:16, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

The redirect page DOES NOT represent a topic closely associated with the other page. They are two distinct topics, and the distinction is important to maintain. I don't know how much more clear I can make this.Hoops gza (talk) 20:28, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hayley Vaughan Santos

The consensus did vote keep, and the article has three sources in the lead paragraph. However, have you read the arguments and found them reliable? If they are unreliable, would you consider relisting the debate? --Gh87 (talk) 19:59, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

In my assessment, the consensus is too clearly in favor of keeping to justify a relist. The consensus swung heavily in favor of keep, and in the 6 days since the first clear argument that this character was particularly notable (relative to the other characters) was made, no one refuted it or added another delete opinion. Both sides had decent arguments, but the keep side had substantially more support, and I think extending the length of the discussion further would be unlikely to change that result.

Hello. I see you have Huggle. I wish to incorporate that into my account as well. There is only one problem, every time I try to log in with it, it keeps saying "Use of Huggle on this project requires rollback." Any ideas?—cyberpower (Talk to Me)(Contributions) 23:47, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

You need the rollback permission to use huggle. Read up on the permission at Wikipedia:Rollback feature and then make a request for it at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Rollback. As huggle is the reason you want the permission, you will want to mention that in your request. Monty845 23:52, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion question

I don't understand the speedy deletion nomination that you created for my username. Can you explain what it is about? Jeffhaff (talk) 17:18, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

First, to clarify, I did not make a speedy deletion request for your username, the speedy deletion was for your user page. I determined that your user page had been created as an attack page by another user, I did not see a version in the history of your user page that appeared to be useful to the project, or that had anything you had wanted to say, it therefor met the criteria for deletion under WP:CSD G10, so I requested it be deleted. You are free to recreate your user page with any content you want so long as it is appropriate for a user page, see Wikipedia:User pages. Monty845 17:30, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
OK, I didn't even see that anything had been done to it. Thanks! Jeffhaff (talk) 19:01, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

RfC on questions

I disagree with you putting the questions up for RfC. Ideally, we want to get large amounts of involvement from the people who care the most about the election, however in reality, those people would have edited the list while the last RfC was going on if they really wanted to. We opened the floodgates, and I really hope that what is now a small number of well thought out questions doesn't become a colossal mess. Sven Manguard Wha? 06:44, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

While I strongly support your desire to have a small number of well thought out questions, I disagree with the idea that they way to accomplish that is to keep the process for deciding on the questions obscure. Even when the main RFC was going, the questions page was relatively obscure and not particularly advertised. With an RFC on the questions, it will make it harder for anyone to argue later that the questions were unfair or that they did not have an opportunity to participate in the creation. I think the best approach to keeping the question set manageable is to challenge/discuss when people add extraneous questions. Questions that are challenged, and don't have a clear consensus for inclusion can just be asked as individual questions later. If you really think the RFC is harmful, I wont stop you if you want to remove the tag, but I think it will reduce the perceived legitimacy of the general questions.

See also Wikipedia:Requests for comment#Suggestions for responding.

Greetings! You have been randomly selected to receive an invitation to participate in the request for comment on Wikipedia talk:Block protocol. Should you wish to respond to the invitation, your contribution to this discussion will be very much appreciated! However, please note that your input will carry no greater weight than anyone else's: remember that an RFC aims to reach a reasoned consensus position, and is not a vote.

Voter guide

BTW, that's Risker with the neutral, not SilkTork. That's a really good idea! It's good to get an overall summary. --Rschen7754 03:36, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Fixed, thanks for letting me know. I thought it would be interesting to see the overall levels of support from the guide writers, and I look forward to being able to compare the guide writer support to the voting outcome once the election is over to see how representative/influential it turns out to be.

@Monty845, thanks very much for the summary of the other voters guides. I find it very useful and agree that it will be helpful after the vote too. Thanks. - Hydroxonium (T•C•V) 15:22, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

New Page Patrol survey

New page patrol – Survey Invitation

Hello Monty845/Archive 1! The WMF is currently developing new tools to make new page patrolling much easier. Whether you have patrolled many pages or only a few, we now need to know about your experience. The survey takes only 6 minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist us in analyzing the results of the survey; the WMF will not use the information to identify you.

  • If this invitation also appears on other accounts you may have, please complete the survey once only.
  • If this has been sent to you in error and you have never patrolled new pages, please ignore it.

Please click HERE to take part.
Many thanks in advance for providing this essential feedback.

You are receiving this invitation because you have patrolled new pages. For more information, please see NPP Survey

for setting up the Supplemental RFC of ACE2011 promptly. Great work! - Mailer Diablo 16:19, 25 November 2011 (UTC)


I was about to slowly click one out myself with the on-screen keyboard when I saw yours was already up and running! (I don't have a keyboard now) - Mailer Diablo 16:19, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

I would have started it sooner, but I was holding out hope a quick consensus could be arrived at in the unstructured discussion. But it didn't seem to be developing that way. Monty845 16:28, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
