User talk:A Nobody: Difference between revisions

== Copying content ==

There are a number of issues with your editing that I want to bring to your attention.

; Contributing similar content to multiple articles

: ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AA_Nobody&diff=324575010&oldid=324500679 Contributing similar content to multiple articles], 8 November 2009''

These are the same kind of edit as before. You did make acceptable (no "merged" in the edit summaries) edits in December and January.

Problematic:

# [[Rebecca Chambers (character)]], 4 February 2010 ([[WP:HISTMERGE|History merge]] interleaved the histories, but the diffs are correct)

#* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=341915231&oldid=341907988&diffonly=1 Rebecca Chambers (character)]

#* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=341915418&oldid=336258026&diffonly=1 User:New Age Retro Hippie/Rebecca Chambers]

# Commentary on [[Left 4 Dead]] player characters' names, 14 February 2010

#* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Francis_(Left_4_Dead)&diff=343887789&oldid=323318143&diffonly=1 Francis (Left 4 Dead)]

#* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Left_4_Dead&diff=343888108&oldid=343665484&diffonly=1 Left 4 Dead]

#* {{[[Template:Copied|Copied]]}} templates: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Francis_(Left_4_Dead)&diff=prev&oldid=343888492], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ALeft_4_Dead&diff=343888668&oldid=338190770]; [[Left 4 Dead]] → [[Francis (Left 4 Dead)]] is fine

Not problematic:

# Work on [[Medal of Honor: Underground]] and [[Manon Batiste]], 25, 26 December 2009

; Creating copying/attribution dependencies that may interfere with deletion

You have made a number of copying edits that may interfere with deletion, either by leading back to a main article like [[The Nightmare Before Christmas]] or [[Left 4 Dead]] or by creating a cycle of codependent articles.

'''Bold''' indicates your edits

The [[Rebecca Chambers (character)]] situation was resolved by a [[WP:HISTMERGE|history merge]] per [[WT:Articles for deletion/Claire Redfield (Character)]].

; [[List of Caprica characters]]

Since you created this list article without using [[WP:Summary style]] or redirecting the character articles, it was a [[WP:Content forking|content fork]] at creation. The rapid creation of the combination article is somewhat concerning.

[[User:Deor]] has [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&dir=prev&offset=20100222021300&limit=7&target=Deor redirected all the character articles]. You may

:: Other users have edited [[List of Caprica characters]], so G7 is no longer an option. [[User:Magicus69]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Zoe_Graystone&diff=345658578&oldid=345571484 reverted] [[Zoe Graystone]] to a full article.

We continue to wait for an answer, A Nobody. Just ignoring this won't make it go away. ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 14:18, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Are you going to ignore their concerns just like in [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/A Nobody|your RFC]]? [[User:Ryan4314|<strong><font color="Black">Ryan</font><font color="CornflowerBlue">4314</font></strong>]] ([[User talk:Ryan4314|talk]]) 14:49, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

:I think that [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:A_Nobody&diff=345964529&oldid=345957267 this] is the only "answer" that will be forthcoming. [[User:Deor|Deor]] ([[User talk:Deor|talk]]) 15:03, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

== RE:WQA ==

I understand where you're coming from. I think I endorsed some of the more supportive statements at your RFCU. But as someone watching from the outside I see how these things go. Overnight that WQA thread has drifted exactly like I was afraid it would. I'll probably add another post in there, but I don't expect to change anyones mind or see some uninvolved admin to read it and start handing out blocks.--[[User:Cube lurker|Cube lurker]] ([[User talk:Cube lurker|talk]]) 15:05, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
