Hi MickMacNee, |

Thank you for your support. As you may have noticed, the discussion has now been [[Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive606#Pre-emptive_indefinite_semi-protection_of_John_Laws|archived here]]. |
|||
I care a lot about this case and its more general implications. Could you please let me know how I can escalate it? I have seen many admin abuses before and some of them were even more disturbing, but this stands out as one of the most indefensible ones. |

I have left a similar note to [[User talk:Resolute|Resolute]]. |

I've just started a GA Review of Top Gear Race to the North. The first thing I tend to do when starting a review is run an automated script to check for overlinking, which is an MoS issue - Wikipedia:Linking. Linking London is a small thing, and it's not going to have any impact on the review; but it's not needed, and somebody will come along at some point and either manually or with some semi-automated script, unlink it, so we might as well do it now and get it over with! Regards SilkTork *YES! 23:05, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
- Ok then....so tell me why London doesn't have to be linked, yet Edinburgh does? Because that's pretty much the only reason I reverted. It's no biggy, its not like one is a capital city and the other is not a capital city. Oh no..wait... MickMacNee (talk) 01:22, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
- I know it seems daft, but it's do with a general level of expectation in the reader. It is assumed that readers would know about London, but may be less secure in their knowledge on Edinburgh. New York City is not a capital city, but it would be expected that most readers would know about the place, while Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte is a capital city, but most readers would not know much about it, and may wish to click on a link to find out where it is.

Top Gear Race to the North GA review
This is an interesting and attractive article with some decent research. The GA review has been put on hold for seven days to allow editors to deal with the issues raised at Talk:Top Gear Race to the North/GA1. Any questions please ping my talkpage.

- I haven't got a clue who you think I've attacked, and considering I place myself in the 'chump' category described in the post, your warning is totally off base. MickMacNee (talk) 23:08, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi
User: Alzarian16 is actually trying to improve the article. They are trying to do this by shortening the article as the tags suggest that it's too long. One of the ideas is that part of the article is moved to another article, so in effect the article is split. This is being discussed at Talk: Lothian Buses, your comments would be appreciated :) --5 albert square (talk) 00:58, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
- done. MickMacNee (talk) 01:25, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hi again! Just to let you know that I made some major changes to the article tonight (the untidiness of it has been annoying the hell out of me for some time now)! Anyway, I've posted some further ideas for improvement at Talk: Lothian Buses, your comments would be welcome and appreciated --5 albert square (talk) 00:27, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Cheonan (corvette) and 2010 Baengnyeong incident
Hi Mick, I'm not saying that the merge proposal is wrong, and it certainly hasn't been made in anything but good faith. It may be a bit premature, depending on how events unfold. We should get a good idea over the weekend whether or not the incident remains isolated or escalates. If the latter happens, there may be justification for separate articles on the ship and the incident. Mjroots (talk) 19:43, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Pre-emptive indefinite semi-protection of John Laws
Hi MickMacNee,
Thank you for your support. As you may have noticed, the discussion has now been archived here.
I care a lot about this case and its more general implications. Could you please let me know how I can escalate it? I have seen many admin abuses before and some of them were even more disturbing, but this stands out as one of the most indefensible ones.
I have left a similar note to Resolute.
