Article titles and capitalisation case

An arbitration case in which you commented has been opened, and is located at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Article titles and capitalisation. Evidence that you wish the Arbitrators to consider should be added to the evidence sub-page, at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Article titles and capitalisation/Evidence. Please add your evidence by March 16, 2012, which is when the evidence phase closes. You can contribute to the case workshop sub-page, Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Article titles and capitalisation/Workshop. For a guide to the arbitration process, see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Guide to arbitration. For the Arbitration Committee, Alexandr Dmitri (talk) 15:11, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk and etiquette and blablabla

I hope you don't mind me mentioning it, but as much as I fully empathise and feel the annoyance of banging my head against a wall, telling the wall to go away won't stop it, and also takes away from the strength of the rest of your comment. Perhaps it's best to just stop answering until the move request starts, and let the mizabot deal with everything. CMD (talk) 21:45, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Fair enough, although I do think that the repetition of the same arguments, combined with the fact that it may well be the same person making them with different IDs, makes the occasional snapping not only explicable but more or less justified. There's far too much polite trolling on Wikipedia and, as I think my main user page still says, I have faith [sic] in rational argument, which perhaps helps me to forget when and how to disengage. As you say though, a formal move request and proposal probably needs to happen (and, hopefully, be put into effect) asap. It's one of those situations that genuinely makes you ask how WP managed to get away with this set-up for so long. But, then again, such idiosyncrasies seem very common here and inordinately hard to budge, given that it only takes one or two people to filibuster any improvement out. N-HH talk/edits 21:54, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Definitely justified, but I find it much more satisfying when you told the IP to go to Talk:Ireland than simply to leave. Just me I suppose. I think we've both seen exactly how WP ends up in this state for so long, a single user can make a whole talkpage unbearable. I believe that the move request will be filed as soon as the current one trying to move the disambiguation page to Taiwan is closed, so until then I suppose I'll cut back on my responding to the IP. It's not exactly going anywhere, unfortunately. CMD (talk) 01:25, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

Post at Talk:Republic of China

I would have to say the part of this post at Talk:Republic of China that is referring to me is beating the WP:DEADHORSE, as the block evasion matter has not been pursued by anyone ever since the SPI was closed. If you took the time to check out something about me that occurred several hundred contributions back, you should have surely seen that 17 minutes before your post was made, Mlm42 made a query on my talk page, and 39 minutes later, I responded. Saying that I am disruptively removing comments when I was discussing their removal behind the lines is no good and if you knew about my talk page, dishonest. Lumping me together with the IP contributors on that talk page is also deceitful, given that I have rarely spoken there. Thus I calmly ask you to redact that bit about me. PS: Do reply here, and I am watching this page...do not notify me on my talk. GotR ^Talk 04:53, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

I will not remove or redact anything from my post. You did create your current account to evade a block and you did remove another person's comments from the ROC talk page, twice, even after they'd moved them to placate your apparent concerns (and the discussion on your talk page with that editor was nothing to do with that action). Then dropping by here to accuse me explicitly - and with no serious justification - of being "deceitful" and "dishonest" doesn't do much to convince me as to your merits as a contributor here or your ability to spot the rather large mote in your eye. Cheers. No reply necessary btw. N-HH talk/edits 17:08, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Well Mlm42, whose comments I removed, did not seem to blame me, so you have no right to. Mind you, I know perfectly well what goes on on my own talk page...there is no need for you to pretend that you do. "Then dropping by here to accuse me explicitly...dishonest" — Not when I said "if you knew about my talk page, dishonest". I never said you knew. Needless to say, for this reason your response is manipulative. And I'll explain the part on deceit now. I interpreted your mention ("Even GotR") right after the IPs as a clear grouping of me with them, and the text that followed is the truth.

And questioning my "merits as a contributor here [on Wiki]"? You are in no position to speak like that, given that I have edited in highly neglected areas (ask Shrigley for confirmation), and this is not to mention the edit count comparisons. Don't make a personal attack if it is going to be rebuffed [far] more harshly. The only person losing face here is yourself. GotR ^Talk 20:44, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

I believe I said "no answer necessary". I have no interest in who is or is not losing face, or indeed in transferring the petty wrangling over irrelevancies from the Taiwan [sic] page to my own talk page. Get over yourself, as the saying has it. Thanks. N-HH talk/edits 14:40, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Michael Wilshaw, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hackney (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Chris Morris and Taiwan. Whoops. Sorry. ROC

Excellent sketch. Thanks for the light relief.

Haven't seen his work before. Will seek out more. HiLo48 (talk) 23:12, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
