== Requested User and Talk Pages Edit block ==

Would it be possible at all for an admin to put a 72 hour edit block on my User and Talk pages due to the continued vandalism and attempts to steal my Wikipedia persona. Thank you [[User:Simon Bar Sinister|Simon Bar Sinister]] 01:11, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
::The two vandals have been indefinitely blocked. See [[WP:Request_for_page_protection]] if problem persists.[[User:Rlevse|Rlevse]] 01:32, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

== [[Seth MacFarlane]] External Links ==

Thanks for those links in the article. '''[[User:Miranda|<font face="georgia" color="#084C9E">M.]]</font><sup>[[Wikipedia:Editor_review/Miranda|<font face="georgia" color="#4682b4">(er)</font>]]</sup>''' 06:24, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

==Simon Bar Sinister?==
Are you the same Simon from the EMCSA site?

* No I am not. [[User:Simon Bar Sinister|Simon Bar Sinister]] ([[User talk:Simon Bar Sinister#top|talk]]) 12:08, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

== Atlantic City, New Jersey newspapers ==

Hello. I recently started a new thread at [[Talk:Atlantic City, New Jersey]] which you may be interested in commenting on. Thanks, [[User:Accurizer|Accurizer]] ([[User talk:Accurizer|talk]]) 16:27, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

== Your vandalism to CSA ==
Knock it off! It is vandalism. A "mockumentary" is not the subject, "bub"! [[User:Red Harvest|Red Harvest]] ([[User talk:Red Harvest|talk]]) 22:12, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

:Boy this is gonna hurt, but I have to agree with Red Harvest on this issue. I moved the link to the movie down to the bottom in the external link section, which seems to be a more appropriate place for it. [[User:Sf46|Sf46]] ([[User talk:Sf46|talk]]) 01:08, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

:It's not "similar" at all. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry book, movie, comic book, etc. shouldn't be posted as the introduction to an article. If you want to put it somewhere in "See Also" etc. I would let others pass judgement on it (at that point it is approaching trivia.) However the way you did it, Simon Bar Sinister, looks and feels like vandalism. I will remove it and tag it as such as often as I see it up there on the masthead. [[User:Red Harvest|Red Harvest]] ([[User talk:Red Harvest|talk]]) 03:05, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

== On giving warnings ==

Any editor can give a warning to a user who is committing vandalism. The only thing that's limited to administrators is the ability to block a user to prevent further vandalism. —'''[[User:C.Fred|C.Fred]]''' ([[User_talk:C.Fred|talk]]) 04:23, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

==[[Wikipedia:Sock puppet|Sockpuppetry]] case==
{| align="left"
|| [[Image:Puppeter template.svg|50px]]

You have been accused of [[Wikipedia:Sock puppet|sockpuppetry]]. Please refer to [[Wikipedia:Suspected_sock_puppets/Simon_Bar_Sinister]] for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with [[Wikipedia:Sock puppetry/Notes for the suspect|notes for the suspect]] before editing the evidence page. [[User:Ironholds|Ironholds]] ([[User talk:Ironholds|talk]]) 01:02, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
==RE: Accusations of Sockpuppetry ==
My apologies, i was working on the extreme username similarity between the three, and the fact that the edits to your userpage and so on were all done by those accounts. My apologies. [[User:Ironholds|Ironholds]] ([[User talk:Ironholds|talk]]) 10:14, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
:I have closed the case [[Wikipedia:Suspected_sock_puppets/Simon_Bar_Sinister|here]], and question whether it should even have been opened in the first place. I hadn't seen Ironholds' comment above, so may come across as a bit snarky in my conclusions. All done and dusted, though. <sub>[[User:Gb|GB]]</sub><sup>[[User talk:Gb|T]]/[[Special:Contributions/Gb|C]]</sup> 12:13, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

== Wide World of Sports / Kissimmee / Osceola County ==

First of all, I do apologize for my mistake regarding which county Kissimmee is in. However, Wide World of Sports is not '''in''' the City of Kissimmee, even though its '''mailing''' address is Kissimmee, FL (mailing addresses do not always correspond to the actual municipality) [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Kissimmee-fl.gif see this map]. Wide World of Sports is located in the unincorporated portion of the Reedy Creek Improveement District that sits in Osceola County. None of the Walt Disney World Resort is located in any incorporated cities other than Disney's two cities, Bay Lake and Lake Buena Vista. There has been quite a bit of discussion of the various WDW resort pages how to how the location of the parks / resorts / etc. should be listed, and ''Walt Disney World Resort'' was the agreed upon location. I'm not looking to start an argument over this. Just trying to make sure the various articles are consistent. [[User:Apr1fool|Apr1fool]] ([[User talk:Apr1fool|talk]]) 01:04, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

== WP:AIV ==

I noticed your comment at [[WT:AIV]]. Looking into it a bit, I've got the following comments, and I prefer to reply here rather than there. The first is most important; the rest is off the top of my head, in no particular order.

*You are edit warring, against consensus on the talk page. Consider this an "official" 3RR warning; if you do it again, you'll likely be blocked.
*"No offence, but what the hell is wrong with you people" is an oxymoron or non-sequitor or something.
*The three editors who disagree with you have all been here a really long time. While I suppose it's not ''impossible'' they're sockpuppets, the odds are really, really, really low. The only thing I find so far that they have in common is (a) an interest in WDW; and (b) disagreeing with you on [[Talk:Disney's Wide World of Sports Complex]].
*What Apr1fool (and others) are doing is 100% not vandalism, it's a content dispute. The report doesn't belong on WP:AIV. As was explained to you.
*It appears you already reported Apr1fool to [[WP:AN3]], and it was rejected. So saying they're comitting 3RR violations is a little disingenious. Also, it makes me realize you already know about 3RR, so your final warning above was a little redundant.
*Please don't submit the names of any of these three editors to WP:AIV again.
*If you really think the wrong decision is being made, discuss on the Disney Wikiproject talk page (I think someone gave you the link on the article's talk page), or look into [[WP:DR]]. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca|talk]]) 21:57, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

== Blocked ==
For 24 hours for edit warring. Please don't edit war on your return; as I mentioned above, there are plenty of [[WP:DR]] outlets available to you if you disagree with the consensus reached so far. --[[User:Barneca|barneca]] ([[User talk:Barneca|talk]]) 22:51, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

I know I'm probably going to get block again for my little user_talk message that I just posted but I have to tell you I DON'T GIVE A FUCK, why because you people are a bunch of stupid ignorant elitist asshole that I ever had the displeasure of meeting! Why can't you get it through your thick skulls that Disney's Wide World of Sports is NOT in Walt Disney World, It never has been and never will be and as far as I'm concerned you can keep publishing inaccurate information because that just shows how real fucking stupid y'all are. [[User:Simon Bar Sinister|Simon Bar Sinister]] ([[User talk:Simon Bar Sinister#top|talk]]) 03:37, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

:If you would like to discuss article content surrounding the location description of the Walt Disney World Resort and what it encompasses (or, as you state, it does not), please take the conversation to [[Talk:Walt Disney World Resort]] where those conversations have been centralized. I suggest that you bring with you some proof that shows that the WWoS is not part of Walt Disney World. Out of the piles of Disney-provided documentation that shows that WWoS is a part of WDW, I offer a memo from [[Reggie Williams]] that states ''Television continues to play a key role in our future and Disney's Wide World of Sports is now the most programmed entity from the Walt Disney World® Resort.''. (cross-posting on the WWoS page) [[User:SpikeJones|SpikeJones]] ([[User talk:SpikeJones|talk]]) 03:56, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
