All I have to say is:

1) The official sanction of the Arbitration Committee is given to the indefinite block of Rainbowwarrior1977 (talk • contribs). The Committee reaffirms that simple vandals and others who engage in overt, easily demonstrable vandalism can be blocked immediately. Neutrality^talk 21:24, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] It's a shame...

It's a shame about the Star Wars mediation falling apart. I think mediation would do the editors involved a lot of good, especially since not all of the disputes are between X vs. Copperchair. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 00:32, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

For the record, I'm perfectly willing to sign on to a mediation that all parties will agree to, but if and only if an agreement is reached that all parties will cease the behaviour that caused this mess in the first place. If five people say "sure thing" and one person continues revert-warring, that hasn't accomplished anything.--chris.lawson 01:28, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:TomsRiver.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:TomsRiver.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, ie in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much. RedWolf 03:11, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Hmmm, don't remember where I got it from, so I'll kill it off myself. Redwolf24 (talk—How's my driving?) 03:17, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] hello?

I'd appreciate if you could post some sort of reply to this. FuelWagon 03:58, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

I'd appreciate it if you read the request before dismissing it out of hand. I'm not asking for Ed to be impeached. FuelWagon 04:15, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

I've replied on the MC page as to what I'm asking for. FuelWagon 14:31, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] could you check

Hi Red - I did a rather involved page move for Asperger's syndrome... I tried to follow the policy on it -

1. Deleted the redirect page, moved the old page to the redirect page, and then restore the history of the redirect page
2. Do #1 for the talk page too
3. Move all the talk page archives normally one by one...
4. Redirect the featured article candidate page to the old name version

Let me know if that was correct... seems to be ok :).

(Also, I'm going to thank you and everyone else here eventually :), today was just a long day. Besides, I did a several hour peer review of a page only to be accused of whining Wikipedia:Peer review/OpenBSD)

Don't let the RFC/RfArs get to you :). Thanks! Ryan Norton ^{T | @ | C} 07:47, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Q1werty

Q1werty was improperly blocked due to the fact that four administrators blocked this user infinitely four times. This is a minor notification that his block has been appropriately fixed. If it hasn't, then there's a bug in the MediaWiki system and should be reported. When I checked the logs on this person, I found that there were four infinite blocks on this user:

• 23:11, 10 October 2005 Rdsmith4 blocked "User:Q1werty" with an expiry time of indefinite (Vandal)
• 23:24, 10 October 2005 Redwolf24 blocked "User:Q1werty" with an expiry time of indefinite (Vandalisms!)
• 23:42, 10 October 2005 Katefan0 blocked "User:Q1werty" with an expiry time of indefinite (Page move vandal)
• 09:48, 11 October 2005 The Anome blocked "User:Q1werty" with an expiry time of indefinite (vandalism-only user)

One thing I noticed is that there was no notice on this particular user's talk page stating the user was infinitely blocked. Anyway, just letting you know what happened. --AllyUnion (talk) 09:17, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

You said that I should have an RfA up around Ocober 15. I hope that I will be ready soon.:)Voice of All ^@|E|Merit 16:55, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User:RedWolf25

Hey, I blocked this account as a possible imposter of you. Wasn't sure, better safe than sorry. I left a note on their talk page if they need unblocked. ∞Who?¿? 22:18, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Second Attempt

I know you saw my questions from earlier this week. I was hoping you would have responded by now -- I'm still puzzled over this whole fiasco. Is there any policy to blocking around here or not? I hope everything is going well otherwise.Shelburne Kismaayo 22:42, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Request for Comment

After reading these allegations and the community response to it, it appears that a real dispute is at hand. Essjay also (on my talk page) told me as much. I have tried to ask you twice about it, only to be ignored -- and I know you saw my comments. Therefore, I have no choice but to second the Request for Comment about your blocking actions. Since my signature was placed within 48 hours of the author's posting, its now offical. Please let us know your intentions. Regretfully,Shelburne Kismaayo 01:17, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

I'm not sure which community you're referring to, but what I see is people supporting Redwolf in dealing with a known troll. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 03:12, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

No no no, Wiki brah is not a troll, he's just had some problems. Rainbowwarrior1977 on the other hand is 300% troll. Redwolf24 (talk—How's my driving?) 03:18, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for your support on my RfA!

Thanks for your support of my adminship!! I was surprised at the turnout and support I got! If you ever have any issues with any of my actions, please notify me on my talk page! Thanks again! Of course, you know I'm especially grateful that you deemed me worthy of nomination :). I honestly thought it would fail since I've only been active a couple of months here - so it was quite astonishing :). Thanks Red! Ryan Norton ^{T | @ | C} 03:09, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Muscle Activation Technique

Hello,

I think I asked you this before but I don't know where the post went.

I was wondering why you deleted my article on Muscle Activation Technique?

He archived it, because I had answered already: it was deleted as a Copyright violation. Titoxd^(?!?) 03:30, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Muscle Activation Technique (Cont'd)

Hello,

The fact that the "car comparison" occurs is a coincidence. I did not read the website from which I supposidly plagerised before writing the article:

http://www.muscleactivation.com/about.html

The other similarities should exist, it's an article describing a method of treatment. I should hope that my article is very similar to that of the official website, if not, my article would be wrong!

[edit] Mediation Committee

Thanks a lot, and I am really excited to join. One question...how do I sign up for the mediation mailing list? Do I have to sign up, or just give you my e-mail address? (Oh, and for what it's worth, I will be on WP very rarely until Friday...midterms are this week.) Ral315 W_S 04:58, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Juriwiki

Red:

I saw your question about Juriwiki in the RfM history: juriwiki is the (private) mailing list for questions regarding legal issues facing the Foundation. In my opinion, once something is handed off to juriwiki, I consider it to be tabled indefinitely until there is a response as to the legal issues. -- —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Essjay (talk • contribs) 15:46, 13 October 2005 (UTC).

[edit] Re: Slut

Really thought i dont see what is wrong with calling chicks "sluts" I mean that hot girl from Rio I was making out with at the club last weekend I was calling her a slut in 5 different languages and she really liked it like most women i meet or know here . . . slut, prostituta, puta, putain, fotze its all the same it turns them on and me too I know.Wiki brah 21:45, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mediation Committee

I was one of the original members of the committee, and there wasn't really any nomination process at the time. There was some sort of discussion on the mailing list, and I indicated an interest, and then Jimbo e-mailed me, and then I was on the committee. It wasn't really very formal at the time -- I honestly have little recollection of how I came to be chair. I think there was no chair for awhile, and then some discussion about possibly having one, and someone suggested me and I agreed, and then that was that. Tuf-Kat 03:55, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Hey, Red, could you go to VFU for a second? You're the head of the MedCom, and there are two users making a mockery of the Undeletion process, making it a flame war/RfC. The users are Silverback (talk • contribs) and 172 (talk • contribs). Thanks, Titoxd^(?!?) 04:56, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I'm not neutral. I've already warned Silverback to stop making attacks. I'm an admin as well as a mediator. Redwolf24 (talk—How's my driving?) 05:01, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Well, then see the history of the VFU page. I'm in my 2nd revert, and I adhere to the 2RR... Titoxd^(?!?) 05:04, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Arbitration / Moderation of Landmark page?

Hi RedWolf24

I recently contacted Uncle Ed regarding the ongoing edit war on the Landmark Education page. He suggested I ask you. My commitment is that the page should provide an authoratitive, useful and honest account of the organisation and its activities (including the ongoing accusations and counter-claims) which conforms to the NPOV policies. My own position is that I did the Landmark Forum about three years ago and found it useful. I have a lot of good friends who rate it highly. The organisation does have its faults, but my assesment of the criticism is that most of it is over the top and either misinformed or deliberately malicious. I do not work for Landmark and am not currently doing any of their programs.

Would you be prepared to take a quick look at the article, the recent history, and the most recent few sections on the discussion page (at the bottom)? I would appreciate your advice.

If you do feel that either arbitration or moderation woudl be appropriate, would you be prepared to be involved? If not, can you suggest anyone for me to ask?

thanks DaveApter 09:50, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I have to go to Canada and I won't be back for a few hours. When I get back I'll probably assign Improv to the case, so I'll leave a copy of this note on his talk page, and he can take over. Redwolf24 (talk—How's my driving?) 18:01, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Matt! I appreciate your equalizer vote in the election. Once again, I'm sorry I voted for myself at first. Won't happen again.

Also, I must express my gratitude for your work assisting the Election Polls. Have this. :P

Becoming an admin opens up a whole new world of abilities and privelidges and over all makes things easier for a person, I think you'd be a suitable admin. Cheers. Redwolf24 (talk—How's my driving?) 05:06, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Admin

Im thinking about nominating Greg Asche for admin in Early November and Purplefeltangel in late november before my big retry nomination in Late November/Early December. Are nominating them a good idea or no. Thanks --JAranda | watz sup 05:09, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Both are great choices, and you could probably nominate GregAsche today! Redwolf24 (talk—How's my driving?) 05:10, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Yes I talked to him and he said in early November is ok and Im going to talk to Purplefeltangel who you know learned alot in Wikipedia since seeing that bad faith nomination when she first started out about admin right now. Thanks --JAranda | watz sup 05:13, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Somebody needs to remind me when these come up, I will forget in like 10 mins :) ∞Who?¿? 05:43, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

• Im starting to think that after 2 months maybe Exactly One Month after my failed VFD attempt I should get nominated for admin if it could be possible. My user page is getting vandalised like crazy and even got this recently. Is this a possiblily and have any user become admin after 2- 2 1/2 months of being here or no. Just too impatient Im hooked :P for that rollback button. --JAranda | watz sup 05:53, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

You could do it at 2 months, but some think it's better to wait at least 3. It really depends on how bad the last one was, and how much of your contributions have been noticed. ∞Who?¿? 06:04, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
