My wheel-warring policy:
|
Admins: If you see me make a logged action that you think I should not have done, I will not consider it wheel-warring if you undo it without asking for my permission. However, if I marked the action as being done after running a checkuser query, or as part of a sockpuppet investigation, you should ask me or another checkuser before undoing it. In any case, if you do revert one of my actions, I would appreciate it if you tell me that you did so. Thanks! |

Spam Links
My apologies J.delanoy. I was unaware what I was doing was spam since there are links to myspaces as well as other user pages for artists. I personally don't see how those are different, but maybe you could clarify? If external links to media sites are not allowed, then shouldn't all of them be deleted?
Not trying to be a pain, I just think the rule should be a definite yes or no, instead of some sites being allowed, and others not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrmike110 (talk • contribs) 15:05, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- Links to bands' profiles on MySpace have long been allowed, because many, many bands actively update their MySpace profiles, and some even communicate information to their fans via MySpace before they do so even on their own official websites. They certainly do not do the same thing on the website you were linking to. J.delanoygabsadds 16:00, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- So what about Purevolume or allmusic? Those have work off of Band label and management contributions, which is the same as the site I was posting. --Mrmike110 (talk) 16:22, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- They are professional, reputable, notable sites. J.delanoygabsadds 16:23, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- So it comes down to personal opinion then? That site I was posting is very professinal, reputable, and notable among the bands and fans that I was posting it on. It's done a lot of work with and for them.
- Check out these bands. Take a look at their external links for instance:
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saliva_(band)
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_(band) (especially this one)
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_Black_Stare
- All of these sites have links that (by going off my deletions) would not be notable, reputable, and/or professional. As for me, I think those sites are great and wiki shouldn't delete them. Wiki has nofollow tags which don't affect a sites search engine rankings, so why would it be an issue? These sites and the one I posted are sites that offer interviews and other media with the band. They should be welcome to an encylopedia article that is trying to give fans of the music every possible resource. --Mrmike110 (talk) 16:56, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- If your links are not spam, why do you care that other articles have links to other sites? Wikipedia is not a web directory or a collection of external links. Mass-adding links to articles like you did is spamming. J.delanoygabsadds 16:58, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- If I just add the links slower than, like once a day or week then its ok? It doesnt matter to me that those links are on there, I was just going off of your words saying that the site was not professional, reputable, or notable when those sites posted have the same general purpose. If my links are allowed, just not all in the same day of posting then I'm fine with that. --Mrmike110 (talk) 17:57, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
- Hey JD, So if the adding links is ok, but just at a slower rate, can I get those other links reactivated? Then I will be more mindful when I start posting the other links to band pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrmike110 (talk • contribs) 16:43, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

copy of a deleted (A7) page please?
Hi, could you do me a favor, and get me a copy of the recently deleted page Gitorious? I don't know enough to know if it should be un-deleted in place, so unless you feel like looking into that, I'd appreciate a copy of it in my userspace. Thanks! - JasonWoof (talk) 21:36, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
P.S. My intention is to add notability info as I find it, and as it becomes available, and eventually get this article back into WP. I will ask for help in deciding if/when it's ready. - JasonWoof (talk) 21:59, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Awesome. Thank you! - JasonWoof (talk) 22:09, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Hi, since JasonWoof has apparently not done much with his page, may I ask that my revised version at User:Tuxcantfly/Gitorious (I also copied it to User:JasonWoof/Gitorious), emphasizing more on the notability of the open-source server-side software and external deployments (Sugar), be reviewed for re-inclusion? —Preceding undated comment added 16:55, 12 July 2009 (UTC).
Texcantfly: Great work! And thanks for integrating your changes into User:JasonWoof/Gitorious. What is the reason for having User:Tuxcantfly/Gitorious also? Please feel free to edit User:JasonWoof/Gitorious - JasonWoof (talk) 05:45, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
J.delanoy and Texcantfly: I think we'd better shoot for having User:JasonWoof/Gitorious be reinstated, since it has the full history (including before the deletion). What is the procedure for getting reinstated? J.delanoy: can you offer an opinion of whether the page is ready? - JasonWoof (talk) 05:45, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Scott Russo
Please explain exactly why you are blanking the Scott Russo talk page. Artw (talk) 18:02, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- WP:BLP. J.delanoygabsadds 18:03, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don’t see how [WP:BLP]] justifies removing fairly neutral statements from talk pages. Unless you are saying that describing someone as a gay rights activist is a slur? I’ll try not to take that at face value, but it seems somewhat homophobic.
- BTW, I’m juyst going to flat out ask this: is User:Grizzlefuz your puppet? Artw (talk) 18:14, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Almost every time someone is described as "gay" or a supporter of gays, it is used as a slur. Good, bad, or ugly, this is a sad fact of life. Hence, any implications of this must be backed up.
- With regard to Grizzlefuz, I am an administrator here on Wikipedia. This is a position of trust more than anything else. I will assure you that I do not operate any undeclared sockpuppets. If you do not believe me, you are more than welcome to open a sockpuppet case on me. Be aware, however, that if you do, it may be viewed as disruptive by other users; such allegations against administrators are not taken lightly. J.delanoygabsadds 18:21, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
Sarandioti, Pakapshem, and a suspicious IP
Hello, I have recently become involved in a dispute with these two users at Epirotes. Because the topic is contentious, I have opened a discussion on the talkpage. I thought the matter settled when I brought a couple of sources to back what I'm saying, but then, an IP editor popped out of nowhere and promptly undid my edit [3]. This IP has popped up just at the right time in the past [4], whenever I happened to be involved in a dispute with I Pakapshem [5], specifically, on June 8 at Sarande, Gjirokaster and Paramythia. Since he has been warned that he is one step away from an indef block because of his disruptive behavior, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it were him. Do you think this is sufficient to request a checkuser? What should I do? Since this article is contentious, I was wondering if you would be willing to semi-protect the article from IP editors until such disputes have been settled. There is nothing more frustrating than starting a discussion only to be swiftly reverted by an IP. Regards, --Athenean (talk) 18:06, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
Athenean's sources were totally unreliable. Check for yourself, before intervening. And now as usual whenever he cant prove his claims he is asking help from admins. Use checkuser, but when Athenean's accusations are proved wrong then block him, since this is the 5-6 time he accuses me without any proof.--Sarandioti (talk) 18:20, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
This is the sixth section titled Sarandioti opened by Athenean accusing me or someone else , and asking checkuser, so please use checkuser on me, i pakapshem and anyone else --Sarandioti (talk) 18:25, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- @ Athenean - I am talking to a checkuser on IRC. He said that the IP is not I Pakapshem or Sarandioti, but that it looks familiar. He's running more checks.
- @ Sarandioti - Why would I block someone for voicing a concern? Considering that both you and the IP have had a tendency of following him around, why would he not think that it's you? J.delanoygabsadds 18:29, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- @J. delanoy - Thank you for taking the time to look into this. Here's another one by the the way: [6]. See what I mean? --Athenean (talk) 18:35, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
Again false accusations by you Athenean. And you still havent managed to prove why should the additions be removed. Just 2 completely unreliable sources, of which 1 was greek while the other started by saying that there are 280,000 greeks in albania. Ironically, in the 2009 elections in Albania, the greek minority party was voted by ~30,000 people. While, the definition of the Epirote clarifies the issue "every native inhabitant of EPirus, is an Epirote", you want to identify Epirote with Greek Epirote. JDelanoy you are welcome to run as many checkuser tests as you want. --Sarandioti (talk) 19:37, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Where was the second accusation? I don't get it. J.delanoygabsadds 19:42, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- About this ip editor. --Sarandioti (talk) 19:50, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Whatever. J.delanoygabsadds 19:55, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Agreed.--Sarandioti (talk) 20:10, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- @J. delanoy - Would you be open to semi-protecting the article so as to prevent IP disruption? The discussion is now over as far as I'm concerned, but there is no point in editing the article while there is such disruption from IPs. Thanks, --Athenean (talk) 20:28, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't think it has risen to that yet, but I'll keep an eye on it. J.delanoygabsadds 20:30, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

The discussion is over and you failed to prove ANYTHING athenean, so stop trying to give that impression. If you don't like the current state of the article, start a new one Greek Epirotes, and there you can add only greek epirotes. But in an article regarding all Epirotes:Albanians, Greeks, Vlachs, you have no right to add only greek epirotes.--Sarandioti (talk) 20:37, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Pardon me, gentlemen, but I'm sure Mr. Delanoy would appreciate you taking this off his talk page at this time. Thanks, Vicenarian (T · C) 20:38, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
I would, but Athenean here cant stop accusing other users, and giving false impressions. I have to clarify issues every time, he does that. --Sarandioti (talk) 20:42, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Sarandioti: Do not continue this argument on my talk page. Athenean has a right to ask me whatever he wants to, and that frankly, what he does here is none of your business. He is not accusing you of anything. I already said that the checkuser returned negative. And even if he was doing something wrong, I think that I am capable of dealing with it by myself. J.delanoygabsadds 20:48, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
@ J. Delanoy, to me here it seems that Athenean is not voicing concerns but making false accusations and assuming bad faith when he can't back up his claims or get his way, by complaining to admins and stirring up trouble for no good reason. --I Pakapshem (talk) 20:54, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- If Athenean had not thought he was correct, he would not have asked me to look at it. If I hadd not thought that there was a possibility that Athenean was correct, I would not have asked a checkuser to look at it. If the checkuser had not thought there was a possibilty that Athenean was correct, he would not have run the check. So right there, we have three people, including two totally uninvolved people, who think there is something fishy going on. And I still think something fishy is going on, even though the checkuser came back inconclusive. So to say that he is stirring up trouble for no good reason is flat-out wrong. J.delanoygabsadds 23:18, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

IP disruption in Epirotes
Sorry to bother you again, but the IP disruption in that article shows no signs of stopping [7]. --Athenean (talk) 21:55, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
I don't usually agree with ip editors, but this time athenean is the one responsible. What Athenean refers to as disruption, is the following: He added that all Epirotes are greeks, when he saw that he had no reliable sources for the removal of famous Albanian Epirotes. Athenean continues his edit-warring, AND has made 3 reverts, and numerous edits that contain edit-warring. Check it here. [8] --Sarandioti (talk) 22:02, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- The bad faith of this individual is staggering. I have NOT edit-warred, nor have I made 3 reverts. That is nonsense. He follows me around and is wikiharassing me. And now he is defending the IP editor. This needs to stop. --Athenean (talk) 22:10, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
So you have NOT edit-warred or reverted? Let's see [9], [10], [11], [12], [13] . And no I am not wikiharrassing you.--Sarandioti (talk) 22:17, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Oh I see, any edit of mine is a revert and constitutes edit-warring according to you. Now that makes a lot of sense.
- @ J.delanoy - Now that I remember, a while back a number of Albanian editors organized off-wiki, on MSN, as can be seen here [[14]] (Goole translation here: [15]). Then we have Sarandioti asking Aigest to send in his msn [16] (translation: [17]). Then yesterday, we have User:Aigest adding material on an individual named Cerciz Topulli in Gjirokaster [18] [19], and today, presto, we have Sarandioti posting an image of the same individual in the same article [20]. Aigest has also been following me around, editing articles that he seldom does, such as Epirotes and Gjirokaster (after Sarandioti started edit-warring there). This creates the suspicion that these two, and possibly more, are coordinating off-wiki. The IP, which appears unrelated, could be an anonymous member of this group that only interevenes when summoned on MSN. Then, we also have User:Taulant23 saying here [21] "The IP understands English" (translation: [22]). When asked by Future Perfect to translate what he just wrote [23], Taulant disingenuously refused [24]. The above, and the fact the the IP appears only when I am involved in a dispute with Sarandioti or I Pakapshem is very suspicious indeed. You might want to consult Future Perfect on this, he knows what I'm referring to. We could be dealing with an off-wiki coordinated tag team here. --Athenean (talk) 23:18, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Okay, I have no idea what is going on here, so I'll do one thing at a time.
- Sarandioti: If you make one more post here about Athenean, I will block you for disruption. He is talking about the damn IPs, not you, so why do you even care? unless you are in league with them? You have not once made a useful comment here, and I do not have to put up with your **** on my own talk page.
- Athenean, I will look into it, but at this point I am extremely annoyed at something in real life, so I may wind up not doing it today, since I don't want to do something I will seriously regret. J.delanoygabsadds 23:32, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- That's fine, no WP:DEADLINE. Better to take your time and do things right, like you say. And thanks again for looking into this. --Athenean (talk) 23:36, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Okay, I don't know enough about the background of this to really be useful. I'm sorry, but I think you'll need to take this to ANI or something. J.delanoygabsadds 00:24, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- That's fine, no WP:DEADLINE. Better to take your time and do things right, like you say. And thanks again for looking into this. --Athenean (talk) 23:36, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- That's fine too, and I understand. If the IP disruption continues, however, would you be willing to semi-protect the page? Best, --Athenean (talk) 00:32, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- It's happening again [25]. One of yesterday's IPs that just so happens to restore all of Sarandioti's (undiscussed) changes. Then Sarandioti magnanimously tells "us" not to edit-war [26] (but does not undo the IP). --Athenean (talk) 21:55, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yesterday, Sarandioti reverts my edits [27], I restore them [28], then the IP undoes me again [29]. Today, I undo Sarandioti, and the IP resotres Sarandioti. This is uncanny, it's like they're on the same wavelength. There has also been disruption from yet another IP on that article today [30]. Incidentally, it also seems sarandioti has performed at least 3 different reverts on that page today [31] [32] [33], to this version [34]. --Athenean (talk) 22:09, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
How exactly did I revert? I have ADDED text(which was accepted by Facturious eventually as I accepted part of his additions)It is called CONSENSUS. The rest is the usual conspiracy theories. I am getting used to checkuser, so feel free to ask for checkuser AGAIN. --Sarandioti (talk) 22:14, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
I will stop commenting here, ask checkuser again if you want Athenean or anything else. AGAIN and AGAIN you will be proved WRONG. --Sarandioti (talk) 22:22, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- I've asked them to check everyone, and as far as they can tell, no one is socking. I don't think I can be of any help here at all. Just talk it out on the talk page, or take it to ANI if you can't reach a resolution. J.delanoygabsadds 22:44, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't think there's socking going on either, but possibly an off-wiki coordinated tag team (which may well be impossible to prove). However, isn't it standard practice to semi-protect articles that are disrupted by IPs? 12 edits by IPs today on Epirotes, all disruptive [35]. I understand that you can't help with the tag-teaming, but semi-protecting the article would go a long way towards reducing most of the current disruption. --Athenean (talk) 22:53, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Thank you, Sir
I hope I am not interrupting some very productive Huggling by posting this. I appreciate your reversion (diff} of my User page. Thank you. Newportm (talk) 00:20, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- No problem :-) J.delanoygabsadds 00:22, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Inapropriate reversal
Hi, this is actually an inappropriate edit - the external link referred to was published this week by an independent magazine and gives additional information on the site.

Advice on how to handle suspected vandalism.
I've been a newbie vandalism for a few days now and would like you opinion on how to handle a case like Tamil people. I originally reverted because the same IP kept removing large sections and making potentially contentious changes with no references and no edit summary. The changes s/he is making could very well be good faith by someone not familiar with Wikipedia policies. Am I justified in continuing to revert s/his reverts (which sounds perverted) and then report s/him when he reaches stage 4? Or should I ask for semi-protection for the page? Or just let them stand until for now? The main contentious claim s/he is inserting is referring to Tamils as terrorists without any references which if I understand the policy correctly is a POV no-no. Thanks for any help you can give. --Sophitessa (talk) 02:10, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- Since he's removing sourced content, and isn't leaving a reason, even though he clearly knows how (having found the undo button), I'd say just treat him as a normal vandal. J.delanoygabsadds 02:44, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Rollback rights
Hi, I would like to know if you could grant me rollback rights? I'd like to help out in the fight against vandalism, I just realized by coming accross these 2 valdalisms(1) (2), this feature would be useful. Thanks. --TitanOne (talk) 07:01, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- Generally, I like to see more vandal-fighting before I give people rollback. Why don't you do a little with the undo feature or Twinkle, and ask again in a few days? J.delanoygabsadds 14:08, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- Ok, I'm just on a short vacation, will be back on Monday, will get on top of things.--TitanOne (talk) 00:14, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
Hey J., I created the above titled page today in my sandbox and moved it to the current page. Problem is, it took the entire history (with all my sandbox messing around) with it. Is there some way to delete the history of my messing around and have just the history from today that really makes a difference? - NeutralHomer • Talk • 14:26, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- I think I split it in the right place. Can you check to make sure? J.delanoygabsadds 14:32, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Expiries on semi-protections
Please don't forget to set an expiry when semi-protecting user talk pages. Some of these folks may not notice you've protected their page and then they remain protected long after the disruption has ended. –xenotalk 15:07, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

- It's no problem. With as many admin actions as you make, I'm sure its just a slip of the mouse or the mind. =) Just FYI this is tangentially mentioned offsite. –xenotalk 15:10, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism & Harrasing
An IP editor[36] is removing our previous consensus on the terms and the merge tag by Andreas. I suspect he is this Spis Ikke Gul Snø. Could you run a checkuser?--Sarandioti (talk) 16:53, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't have checkuser permissions, sorry. J.delanoygabsadds 16:55, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- OK, but could you please rv and warn him, he is massively destroying the article. He has already removed twice the merge tag by Andreas.--Sarandioti (talk) 16:56, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- I warned him about WP:3RR. If he reverts again, I will block him. J.delanoygabsadds 17:01, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- I guess the warning did not work [37]. This [38] was the last stable version where Andreas added the merge tag, if you can revert to that. --Sarandioti (talk) 17:06, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Education Centre of Australia returns from the dead
The article reappeared five minutes after you deleted it for copyvio. What's the correct and polite way of telling the author to cease and desist? Favonian (talk) 01:24, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
We seem to be stepping on each others toes.
See [39]. It looks like we both just issued a range block for different ranges and times over the same issue. For the record, it looks like he's exclusively editing from the 165.154.46.0/24 range, but if you have evidence of the /16 also being a problem, then perhaps we should leave yours and get rid of mine. What's your feeling? --Jayron32.talk.say no to drama 01:40, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- If you have the rangecontribs gadget enabled in your prefs, look at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=50&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=165.154.0.0%2F16&namespace=3 J.delanoygabsadds 01:43, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- I just did. All of the /16 contribs outside of the 165.154.46.0/24 range are either obviously not related to this guy (constructive contribs) or are very outdated (a year old or more) or both. It looks like this recent disruption is confined to the /24 range noted above. --Jayron32.talk.say no to drama 02:05, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- Hmm. I didn't notice that. If you want to remove mine and see what happens, feel free. J.delanoygabsadds 02:08, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- I will then. If problems start showing up outside the /24 I or you can always reinstate it. --Jayron32.talk.say no to drama 02:12, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Servers
Do you know if you can host a website from a Dial-Up connection on a server? Also how does the chess thing on your page work? 66.202.88.214 (talk) 08:44, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, you can, but it would probably run intolerably slow by most people's standards. Go to User:J.delanoy/chess and click "edit this page" to see the code that was used. J.delanoygabsadds 15:39, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Your 2 reverts
Hello! I am curious as to two quick reverts you did, the second one here. The first action you took was great and restored the article as factual and relevant. Why did you revert yourself a minute later? Cordially, SergeWoodzing (talk) 17:31, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
- I wasn't sure if it was vandalism after I reverted the first time, so I undid myself. J.delanoygabsadds 17:34, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
- You actually are on to something, and that's what I hoped you had seen. Bordeline vandalism, in any case disruptive.
- A couple of Swedish editors are collaborating to remove a well ref'd explanation about the lack of sources for this life, info that I think the reader in English needs, to understand that lack. If you agree, will you please put the sentence about the castle fire back in and protect the article from the war these two have started?
- They also collaborate on Swedish Wikipedia in a similar way to dominate Swedish history and quash any and all educated opposition to their POV - neither is an expert on history, both are very opinionated. One of them (Kuiper) is almost always uncivil, basically a near-professional edit warrior, and needs to be blocked for a while. A Commons administrator (Abigor) just yesterday protected a category page from his warring and warned him as (quote) "before".
- Do I need to supply a quote and translation from the Åberg book about the effects of the fire or will the page # that's there do? No problem to do that if needed.
- The rest of the little article is OK except in the lead sentence where it now looks like his historicity has been questioned as having existed at all. Both editors have conceded (as all 21st century scholars report) that the doubt only concerns the guy's royalty.
- I will respect your judgement whatever you feel is appropriate. Sorry about this harang. Sincerely, SergeWoodzing (talk) 18:14, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
Cuisine of the Republic of Macedonia
Question about the results of the naming policy. This article was originally named Macedonian cuisine (currently a dab page) and was paired with Macedonian cuisine (Greek). Should it be returned to the original name, its second name Macedonian cuisine (Slavic) or left alone? Food and Drink guidelines state it should be named Macedonian cuisine, but I am having trouble understanding the result of the discussion.

Removal of merge discussion tag

Unblock ID
Can you get me an unblock id because when i logged on my LexusIS300, MC10 pushed me away and he started vandalising my account. He also is going to start vandalis the account he created yesterday so when every time i log on i get blocked on the other computer. He made his account ULKFKINPEPL (You love ****** people). I need a Unblock id. Thanks for your cooperation! Please report as soon as possible! When ULKFKINPEPL logs on on this computer, he vandalises and then when i log on, i get blocked and when MC10 logs on, he doesn't get blocked. Alasto Light (talk) 12:00, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
- There isn't such thing as an Unblock ID (at least in the sense you mean it). Seriously, WTF? —MC10|Sign here! 21:56, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
