Proposed deletion of St. Lawrence's Church, Vittoriosa

The article St. Lawrence's Church, Vittoriosa has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This article is not about what its title claims it is about. There is one passing reference to the St. Lawrence's Church in this article (referred to as the Church of Saint Laurence), the remainder of the article appears to mostly be about various random points in the history of Malta.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. SnottyWong talk 13:04, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Foreign titles of nobility in Malta

The sources are better, but please read Wikipedia:Writing_better_articles#Lead_section and make changes to the lede, also known as the lead paragraph. Bearian (talk) 16:30, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Much better. Bearian (talk)

As much as I want to fulfill your request on my talk page, I lack the knowledge to do so. I have zero familiarity with Maltese nobility. I have seen brief mention of the Barba, Bianchi, (Busco/)Bosco, Cardona, Crispo, Gomez, Guevara(/Guara/Grayera), Lascaris, Navarro, Piscopo, Ragusa and Torres families while foraging for genealogical data on distant relatives of mine, but my foraging has not yet led me into the genealogies of post-15th-century Maltese noble families. Sorry. -JohnAlbertRigali (talk) 08:28, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Arbitration request

Hi there. I reverted your addition of a request for arbitration to Maltese Nobility. The correct venue for such a request is Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests Nancy ^talk 18:01, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Are you a sock puppet of banned User:Tancarville? You certainly appear to be so. If not and all works out well, you may want to read WP:RS, WP:ELNO and a few more of our guidelines before starting to lob personal attacks and rushing to arbitration.Bali ultimate (talk) 18:06, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom clerk note - Hi, I have temporarily removed your post to Arbitration/Requests as it needs to be reformatted. I am happy to assist you to format your request properly, but I'll need some additional information first.

• Who are the editors you wish to officially name as "involved parties"?
• Has there been any attempt at dispute resolution elsewhere? Eg. WP:ANI, WP:RFC, etc?
• Can you provide some diffs for examples of the actions you believe require Arbitration review.

Please respond here on your page. Regards, Manning (talk) 21:24, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your assistance. I am not a sock or puppet. By now your computer probably verified that. Secondly, it is clear that there's some kind of agenda against the subject. Is it plain ignorance or green eyed envy? Whatever it is Wikipedia is not the place for these people.

The references are real. For goodness's sake, an entire report was even presented to the British Parliament! How much more notable can that be?!

I am identifying the two individuals I named as involved parties.

There has been no attempt at dispute resolution. I am not going to bother because it would be pointless exercise given the rude and shallow attitude of those two 'editors'. I object to Wikipedia allowing such people pontificate from the comfort of some back street garage and come up with a cheapskate dismissive attitude.

I am new here. I realize that past edits by somebody else may have raised concerns about verifiability but I am (now, was) willing to discuss most points that could have been raised.

Other readers already commented favourably on the revised format. All were positive until this incident. Sadly doubts have now been sown in their minds but this notwithstanding, the references are all at hand and readily available.

Yes, there is a highly informative website which has been cited. It is the only site known to have so much readily avaialble information on the subject. Have a look at that site and see the primary sources cited over there. It even has pictures of the documents. You will also see that that site actually bothers to compare and criticize publications. So much for self-promotion!

I am really shocked with the attitude of those two editors and I am very disappointed with the fickleness of those who first commented favourably and are now talking about something sinister. Are these people for real?

Please go ahead and reformat my complaint according to the required form.

The actions for arbitration review:

I am asking that the pages be restored to before they were vandalised by these so-called editors.

As for this Bali ultimate's lightly veiled panic threat just because he got reported for an arbitration, you can decide for yourself what this 'editor' is about. In addition, please look at the language used by this 'editor'. Crass and vulgar.

I am angry and shocked with all this. Please revise your policy and get rid of these 'editors' and their shameful talk, if not for the contents of the articles under discussion at least for the benefit of Wikipedia.

Thank you Mobile historian (talk) 22:45, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom clerk note - OK, like all editors you are entitled to request the ArbCom to intervene and I will happily assist you. However I will point out that it is extremely rare for ArbCom to examine a conflict that has not previously been through some other form of dispute resolution. As a consequence do not be surprised if ArbCom simply dismiss the request with an instruction of "Take to alternative dispute resolution". Regardless I will go ahead and format your request.

I think you can expect this case to be soundly rejected until such time as other steps in dispute resolution process have, in the very least, been attempted. --Hammersoft (talk) 00:04, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Not, mind you, that given the extremely uncivil talk this fellow's spitting out, that's likely to go well. This sort of "How dare these peons question me??" language, heaped with insults and threats, is exactly Tancarville's style.  RGTraynor  10:25, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Now RGT and whatever the the other one calls himself, run along and go back to your computer games, or whatever you like doing best. Mobile historian (talk) 12:14, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

• Terrific; so the Gauci books exist. Not that that was my question or concern. As far as your second link goes, no one doubted that the Royal Commission existed either. What we did ask for is basic: evidence not linked to Charles Said-Vassallo, whose credentials as a genealogist are self-proclaimed only and verified by no one, and whose antics as a self-promoter are on record; inline citations to your references; and for the articles to be trimmed dramatically as per WP:UNDUE. You've chosen instead to launch a barrage of insults in violation of WP:CIVIL, showing an unacceptable lack of good faith. This brand of unacceptable behavior is what earned Tancarville an indefinite block from editing Wikipedia, and I strongly suggest that meeting Wikipedia policy and guidelines for articles and sourcing on your part will prove more productive than picking fights.  RGTraynor  13:06, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Does that mean you're going to revert the edits and take back that rubbish you wrote about me? If that is so, it might be good start to be civil to each other. AAAaand (probably with an accent) you and your friend can stop your nonsense about socks and puppets. We might even become friends (unlikely) Mobile historian (talk)

I've yet to be uncivil here; it is you who has been repeatedly and reflexively insulting. You may, of course, choose to address the concerns posed to you instead of further combative behavior. That's up to you.  RGTraynor  17:10, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Forget Civil. That obviously doesn't work for you and your little friend. Instead, let's try reason like adults. You were invited [[1]] to check the article. Instead you went off on a witchhunt [[2]] and your little friend thought he should amuse himself by talking faeces.

Whilst you were on your little roll, your mantra was "most of the rest of the sourcing is cited as coming from works by a Charles Gauci" and you asked for verifiability. Now that has been verified but you've got ahelluvalot of egg on your face. So now you say that that was never your "question or concern"!!! Aaaand what exactly is the job you say you have?

Look, at least one of us is a grown up. Just admit you messed up badly on this one and revert your (and your little friend's) edits and I promise I'll try make those articles shorter and put in lots of other references. As for the other source which seems to be upsetting you, it's a great site and you should appreciate other people's efforts. Life isn't just about you and your favourite little hockey stick. Mobile historian (talk) 20:23, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

You seem to be under some strange misimpressions of what Wikipedia is about and how things are done here; I strongly recommend you read through WP:PILLAR, which will help a lot in that respect. First and foremost, WP:CIVIL is not optional; you do not get to throw insults around just because you feel like it, and you can be temporarily or indefinitely blocked if you persist. Secondly, I suggest reading WP:OWN; these are not your articles, them conforming to Wikipedia policies, guidelines and practices are not contingent on any demands on your part, and any editor has the right - and, indeed, the duty - to ensure that they do.

Finally, Wikipedia is not a schoolyard where adversarial behavior or taunts are appropriate or welcome. Questions have been raised about Charles Gauci's credentials as a genealogist, based on his self-promotional behavior on Wikipedia last year. Such questions are our responsibility to ask if we have doubts. Answering them to our satisfaction is your responsibility, if you are the one to whom such questions are posed. It's not a matter of "beating" anyone.  RGTraynor  23:03, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. I see your point about more verifiability, credentials and all that and I agree that things should improve. But it seems that your issue is a little more basic than that. Look:-

Wikipedians should interact in a respectful and civil manner: You and your friend fail!

Respect and be polite to your fellow Wikipedians, even when you disagree: You and your friend fail!

Apply Wikipedia etiquette, and avoid personal attacks: You and your friend fail!

Find consensus, avoid edit wars, follow the three-revert rule, and remember that there are 3,097,322 articles on the English Wikipedia to work on and discuss: I've tried but you're aloof.

Act in good faith, never disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point, and assume good faith on the part of others: Suggest you ask your friend to read this carefully.

Be open and welcoming: My first time here and boy I sure don't feel welcome. I think I might as well leave you alone to play with barnstars which seem to be more important than putting together an encyclopedia.

Wikipedia does not have firm rules besides the five general principles presented here. Be bold in updating articles and do not worry about making mistakes. Your efforts do not need to be perfect; because prior versions are saved by default, no damage you might do is irreparable: Doesn't this sound familiar to you?

To you and your little friend: Read my lips: Stop being disruptive and petty. If you want improvements give me a chance, and you must stop your nonsense about me being someone else. Now, will you kindly revert those edits, so we can finally put this behind us? Mobile historian (talk) 23:58, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

And if you care to read the articles which you and your friend vandalised, you will see that there's no mention of genealogy which seems to be the bee stuck in your bonnet. The articles describe the history and what the subjects are about. The only genealogy shown was a short and peripheral table for Gerald Strickland. Anything else is via external links Mobile historian (talk) 00:49, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Mr. Abitrator, before the request for arbitration gets dismissed just because RGT and his fetid friend are saying that one should first attempt an alternative mode of dispute resolution, and because I am hopelessly outnumbered by so many vain people who pass their time by awarding each other silly barnstars and green stamp triple crowns, and because I am foolish enough to actually believe that you will order those two peons to revert their edits, I have one last question: Hey RGT, Why are you so quiet now? Do you have some sort of hidden agenda on the subject? Just before your little friend started getting his hands dirty, you said that you wanted to check the sources [[3]]. What you wanted was verifiability of the Gauci books. I also looked up what you said about WP:V in 2008 [[4]] where you complained that you couldn't find the Gauci books. After the arbitration request was filed you started saying that that was never your "question or concern". Don't give us abbreviated gibberish and litanies of wikipolicies. Just show me - and every one here - that you can really uphold WP: AGF. Aaand if you repeat more silly accusations about me being someone else, I might go as far as asking that you get permabanned from Wikipedia for one reason or another (OMG, will you get a life after that?!) Mobile historian (talk) 17:35, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Please strike your personal attacks. It's bullying, and prevents any presumption of good faith. It's also not allowed. If you choose not to, I'll take this up at WP:WQA.Bali ultimate (talk) 17:53, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry can't do that 'coz I'm still too numbed by your shameful, disgusting and shocking language and behaviour. [[5]] . Apologize, revert your and your friend's vandalism and then I might feel better. Thanks for the tip: WP:WQA: I'll try remember that one next time you and your friend think you can get away with it.

Re block evasion by Tancarville (talk · contribs). LessHeard vanU (talk) 22:11, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

You know, it's a shame.

I declined to respond to your previous missive because you were explicit in your intention not to converse in a civil and civilized manner, and further comment from me under the circumstances would get no one anywhere. The situation being what it now is, this is my last chance to get through to you.

Plainly you're an energetic fellow, and possibly the next time around you will not only turn that energy to learning the rules, but will believe they apply to you. Perhaps there are venues and forums where your self-proclaimed "nobility" buys you deference, but there are genuine celebrities using Wikipedia - Bill Gates, Sir Ian McKellan, Roger Ebert, Mark Cuban, Christopher Cerf and many, many others from Nobel Prize winners to government ministers to film stars to industrialists - who neither receive any more of a voice than any other editor, expect the suspension of Wikipedia policies and guidelines in their favor or require others to kowtow to them as a precondition to acting in the civil and good faith fashion which is Wikipedia's norm; I urge you to emulate their example.

Properly sourced, and at a proper length, those two articles had elements of skilled execution and may have been assets. They won't be, now, and no one is to blame for that but yourself. That's a pity and a waste.  RGTraynor  06:45, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:

*Mine is one of those rare reasons why the block should be reversed. I have been accused of being someone else. I am not User:Tancarville, I am not anyone else. I am a new editor but unfortunately two editors provoked a very angry reaction from me. * I made many edits randomly but always in good faith. Whenever anyone asked me to improve, I complied [8]] and even asked for more guidance [[9]]. Some edits are extensive but these were upheld as soon as other editors realised my good faith [[10]]. *Feeling more confident with the system, I then sourced people who might have in interest in the subject I edited, always with a purpose of improving. User:RGTraynor is an obvious candidate because he had issues in the past with the subjects. But instead of helping, User:RGTraynor immediately [[11]] accused me of beig a User: Tancarville sock. Another editor Bali ultimate took this to mean he could reverse my edits and planted a sock tag to my identity. His reason - in his words - was that I was filling the encyclopedia "with crap" [[12]]. Neither User:RGTraynor nor Bali ultimate gave me an opportunity to defend myself from their onslught of accusations. Given my very short life on Wikipedia and the fact that I already have a proven case history of showing a propensity to act on constructive criticism, I found this treatment highly offensive. So I reacted, strongly. I was even angrier once User:RGTraynor clearly realised but never admitted, that his original concern (of verifiability) was misjudged, he did not take the cue to rectify his mistake. *I had no wish to communicate with Bali ultimate because he was the first to be rude and when he did finally complain, I used his own tone to put him in his place. Check my ISP, I am not User: Tancarville and I am not someone else's sock or puppet. After I was blocked User:RGTraynor started saying that my edits had elements of skilled execution and may have been assets. * In my case the block reason seems to be two: that I am a sock and that I was rude to User:RGTraynor and Bali ultimate. * The first reason is untrue, as for the second my actions were first provoked by the rude comment and those editors' continued insistence that I was a sock. * I promise to behave better in the future, but I would like peace of mind that their wrong impression that I am a User: Tancarville sock is removed completely, so please verify my ISP and have me unblocked. Thank you

 Note: I've emailed the en-functionaries list to request help from a checkuser. I'm not sure whether the data is stale, but I'd like to know before making a decision. I've also asked the blocking admin to post a summary of the behavioral evidence. Jehochman ^Talk 14:56, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

I would note that I blocked solely on my perception of block evasion, although my attention was drawn by a complaint of inappropriate commentary made at WP:AN. I worked to the principle that once block evasion is apparent then other concerns become moot. My comment regarding "mischief" is that of the editing of Maltese nobility to a similar pov to that of the blocked account. My response to Jehochman's enquiry is at my talkpage. LessHeard vanU (talk) 20:52, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

I've just pestered the functionaries to see if we can get help from a checkuser. I am sorry it is taking so long. Unblock requests should be processed promptly. Jehochman ^Talk 21:19, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Please do take as much time as you need to check. I would like to add one other observation: My angry outburst may have been fanned by looking up some other editors' talk pages where a common caveat reads something like "don't get offended by my tone of edits" "go somewhere else" etc, which is all very macho and taken in the spirit of Fun when reading them, but not when those same editors suddenly butcher a researched article, point suspicions and accusations and throw you in a dustbin, leaving Wikipedia with a dismembered piece which "looks good according to policy". This is hurtful to the good-faith editor and confusing to the reader. Please consider this aspect too when deliberating. Thank you Mobile historian (talk) 21:49, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Checkuser User:Fred Bauder is looking into this matter. My inclination is that you are either not the same editor, or that you are the same editor, but you've shown signs of improvement. As Less pointed out, you know something about Wikipedia policies, and I've noticed that you've made at least some contributions that were not reverted. Do you understand that Maltese nobility has been a troubled area, and that if you want to edit here you'll need to consult with other editors, try your best to follow verifiability, no original research and neutral point of view? I suspect that Checkuser will produce an indecisive result. If that is the case, I may unblock you provisionally with an expectation that you'll be extra careful in what you add to articles, and that you'll take care to be polite to other editors. Please hang on a bit longer. (In the unlikely case Checkuser comes back and says you've been trying to deceive us, we'll talk about next steps in that case.)

To first paragraph: Point taken. I assure you that I am not User: Tancarville and that in the knowledge that I am not the person I have been falsely accused of being, all I would like from fellow editors is some constructive guidance on how to formulate an article on this troubled subject which is acceptable to WP policies. In fairness to all, I should also add that any article about the subject would be incomplete without reference to User: Tancarville's website. Thank you. Mobile historian (talk) 22:25, 19 November 2009 (UTC) * P.S. If your deliberation is positive, I will require a reversion of those edits and deleted articles, (and a removal of the sock tag!) in order to enable me bring the articles in line with WP policies Mobile historian (talk) 22:25, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

To second paragrpah: No. But I have access to shared computers if that's relevant.
