My Mother is a Tractor : Deletion

Hi Celarnor. I know I cannot stand in the way of a tidal wave of wiki opinion but just wanted to add some notes for you.

• I'm originally from Australia but have not lived there for 8 years, hence those edits are the work of whoever - but not me. Upon checking Qworty's link I see they were added on June 6, 2006 - one of the busiest weeks of my year (exam week in Shanghai).
• It may be self-published but, if you follow the Amazon sales, it's usually only outsold by "Learning to Bow" in the pantheon of 'JET' books.
• Notability does not seem to matter much to Indiana University and Dokkyo University who utilise it as a standard text in courses WP:BK - Point 4
• It's archived by both the National Diet Libary (Japan) and Library and Archives (Canada) WP:BK#Threshold_standards
• This book has been independently reviewed by Japan Visitor, The Crazy Japan Times, Rocky Mountain JETAA and Rough Guide Japan WP:BK - Point 1
• As for personal non-nobility that's not in question here, and neither would I ever assert it - although some have alluded to it. FYI I have had other work published in major media such as The Japan Times, Shanghai Daily, Fukuoka-Now, Asia! and Voyage.
• Lastly if anyone have ever written a book one would realise the path of 'vanity press' is much easier one to tread than the continual slog of agents and publishing houses. Qworty obviously doesn't like POD/"Vanity Press' Talk:Trafford_Publishing and has deleted all other references without waiting for judgement here, so one must presume deletion a fait accompli

Given the last point I have therefore saved a copy now as a last hurrah, expecting the worst. Good evening and good luck. —Preceding comment added by Nklar (talk • contribs) 15:46, 01 May 2008 (UT

A guy from NET is harassing me

I have asked a few people to if they could look into this. This guy http://en.technocracynet.euDISABLE/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user=358 Network of European Technocrats - Jure Sah . He is this guy here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:89.212.75.6 DustWolfUser talk:89.212.75.6 .

He showed up out of the blue and put a spam sticker on the Technocracy movement article and also my user page... I feel like he is stalking me or harassing me. Could you look into this? Maybe ask him to leave me alone ? I explained to him that it was not me that put the NET site up for deletion. Thanks.

Look here. I posted it there because of personal information being on the user's talk page. Ottava Rima (talk) 01:29, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I hadn't thought of that; good thinking. Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 01:30, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for standing up for open editing

Thanks for your consistent work to defend more open editing, writing, and the principles of Wikipedia. When you defend these, you defend IP users. Thanks again. Mr. IP (talk) 03:36, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks; its nice to know that there are still some other people out there also interested in these things.  :) Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 04:26, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

HAGGAR?

I have tried to understand an element of your response to my post at Wikipedia_talk:Abuse_filter/Archive_2. It is highlighted in bold in this quote:

"If implemented correctly and with sufficient community oversight over the filters, the danger to content is minimal; as long as the community at large is there to watch over the filters, there isn't any harm in having them there, since the system is only designed to be used against very obvious vandalism with very specific MOs (i.e, HAGGAR). The danger isn't in the technical power of the extension, it is in what might happen if there aren't enough editors capable of watching over the system to make sure it doesn't get subverted."

Are you referring to Mike Haggar? If so, I am not a game player so I really have no idea what is the relevance. Otherwise, I may be revealing my ignorance of an earlier discussion. At any rate, you did understand exactly the question I was posting and I am swayed to the pro-AF side at this point. Sswonk (talk) 00:07, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

No; I don't know who Mike Haggar is. One of the more problematic kinds of vandalism is where someone (or a group of people) move pages to unicode variants of the word "HAGGAR"; the original AF system was put in place to allow filters to deal with that kind of vandalism.

Thank you

Thank you for your participation in the discussion at WP:VPP. I have heard of User:Pumpie...but who is Jean Latore and socks? I can't find anything about them. Pernambuco Boy (talk) 02:27, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
