[edit] user:Bullamail
You warned him for vandalizing articles and user pages before [1] and notified me that you did. He has not stopped since then and has continued [2], also doing the same thing as ip in another article (I am sure that it is him, since the edits are almost simultaneous with edits to Chittisinghpura massacre)[3][4]. If you look at his "factually correct" version, you wil notice that he inserts troll comments intended to disparage Hindus, as well as misrepresentations of previously cited sources. Misrepresentations that are so obvious that I do not think an assumption of good faith is warranted and simply treat as vandalism.What should I do? Can you do something?

[edit] user:80.193.52.27
Hi TigerShark,
Are you sure User:80.193.52.27 shouldn't be blocked? They only have three legitimate edits in their entire history. It's true that they haven't vandalized in the past few hours. But is there ever a point at which a pure, but not rapid, vandal gets blocked?
Thanks. --Allen 20:16, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. This one is in a bit of a grey-area. Although all of the edis from the IP do seem to be vandalism and the IP has been blocked twice in the last few weeks, there is not a large volume of edits and they have currently stopped. I would prefer to give the benefit of the doubt that they might have finally stopped, but I will keep an eye on them. Cheers TigerShark 20:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

- I see. Thanks! --Allen 20:42, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] User: 208.39.164.12
Thanks for your quick reply. I had also messaged another admin (Kuru) who has been a reliable help in the past. He informs me that he the IP address has been warned ... just waiting for the user to screw up again. D-Hell-pers 22:35, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Multiple edits, etc.
Thanks for the tipoff. See my comments on User talk:John Reaves. --Cbdorsett 10:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. I looked at your comment, and it is fully understandable that you acted as you initially did - it can be very disconcerting when you see questionable edits being made so quickly. Cheers TigerShark 11:00, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks. Take a look at this one: Special:Contributions/124.186.228.126 --Cbdorsett 11:02, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks. I have blocked them for 24 hours, they have had plenty of warnings that those edits are non-constructive and that they risked being blocked. Cheers TigerShark 11:09, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Frigidity
Re this edit: what assertion of notability did the article make? I cannot see any. -- RHaworth 05:23, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] User Eastlake
Hi can you help me stop this guy putting a vanity published work on Pedophilia and child sexual abuse in fiction. thanks Tony 23:10, 21 March 2007 (UTC)Tony
[edit] Page blanking
I was not aware of such acts of vandalism! I cannot deny that it was my account that was used but I can assure you that it was not me that did it. Several people use my PC so I will give them a grilling about it. Hope all is well in your part of the world! Cls14 21:07, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Magnavoxodyssey.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Magnavoxodyssey.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. KonstableSock 13:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding user: 72.248.23.38
To me, it looks like he/she has received two final warnings in the last three days. Am I wrong?
This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Bill of rights, you will be blocked from editing. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Khukri 14:37, 16 March 2007 (UTC) [edit] 3-20-07
Thank you for experimenting with the page United States Bill of Rights on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to do. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. - NYC JD (interrogatories) 14:10, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
This is the only warning you will receive. Your recent vandalism will not be tolerated. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. semper fictilis 20:20, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
-- Theunicyclegirl 20:49, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- A week is too long? Wow! That is quite a short time period. Thanks for clearing it up, though! -- Theunicyclegirl 21:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Special:Contributions/Vunvjorhimm and socks
Hi. Regarding the WP:AIV request you denied earlier [5], there are now massive numbers of sockpuppets of the original user (already warned many times) showing up on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Entarians voting Keep, when every legitimate user so far has agreed it is a hoax. Same guys are also otherwise going around leaving comments on talk pages to try to make people think the hoax is real. Are you allowed to take some action or do I have to go through the full WP:SSP process?
- Vunvjorhimm (talk • contribs) [6][7]
- Hessosuwonae (talk • contribs) [8]
- 153.90.117.3 (talk • contribs) [9]
- 153.90.125.166 (talk • contribs) This comment [10] on Talk:Koreans almost identical to what Vunvjorhimm said on the Afd
- Flyingdannish (talk • contribs) [11]
Incidentally, on the AfD, Hessosuwonae writes some nonsense alleged to be "Entarian language"; this is obviously misspelled Korean, and if it were a real language, linguists who have been searching for relatives of Korean for years and trying to prove the Altaic hypothesis, e.g. Sergei Starostin, would have obviously noticed its similarities to Korean by now and made themselves world-famous by publishing papers about it. Thanks, cab 00:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. Unless these apparent sockpuppets are causing real damage now, I think that it is best to raise this at WP:SPP. It seems fairly clearcut, but it is obvious that the socks are likely coming from a dynamic IP (hence the two IP addresses). It is also possible that these are mutiple users (kids at a school), so should probably be investigated properly. I will keep an eye on the AFD but I wouldn't worry, there is no way that the closing admin will not take into account the sock like activity, and the articles will get deleted (it is annoying that current policy means we have to go through this process).

[edit] User:Trollsrule
Can you please turn autoblock on for this user? The account was created by Jellybellytroll, so it was definitely on purpose, and the user knows it's a violation. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 22:27, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. Is there a reason that you are sure it is the same person? There is only one contribution between the two of them, so I would prefer to err on the side of caution, but please let me know if you have any more info, or if similar accounts keep getting generated. Cheers TigerShark 22:33, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- 1,000,000% sure. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 22:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- I see, thanks. I don't see that more accounts have been created since, so I am loathed to autoblock what could be a shared IP. However, please let me know if you see any more related activity. Cheers TigerShark 22:51, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- 1,000,000% sure. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 22:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Well..
Well... with respect your asking a lot their, I only just got it the way it really suits me, its biased on User:Radiant!'s signature and I quite like it, I'd like to help but I dont think its imperative is it?Tellyaddict 16:25, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- No, not imperative, but it does make life more difficult for other editors [12], with the only benefit being that you prefer it. If you really want to keep it that way, I don't have a big problem, but I just personally think that the priority should be not impacting the work of others. You are correct that Radiant's signature is very similar and, for what it is worth, I think that they should also change (for the same reason) - I have just not come across a situation where that sig caused me a problem. Cheers TigerShark 16:32, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I'll see what I can do, I cant promise I'll do anything however I do value your opinion and your comments, thanks - Tellyaddict 16:36, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, take care. TigerShark 16:45, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
