User 119.155.37.141 See User talk:119.155.37.141 The IP appears to be accusing Zaps93 (talk · contribs) of sockpuppetry. The other two id's mentioned are not registered. Mjroots (talk) 18:51, 3 October 2010 (UTC) The ip appears here solely to revert the edits of User:124x247x221x146. Weird. And airline destinations is such an odd thing to get so excited about. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 19:10, 3 October 2010 (UTC) Another editor worth keeping an eye on, see also User:124.247.221.146, likely correlation between these two. Mjroots (talk) 19:17, 3 October 2010 (UTC) Kristin Bauer Somebody keeps changing this article and putting in the wrong date of birth etc on the grounds of security. Can you help? I understand about keeping the parents names out, but I don't understand the other changes. Ravenscroft32 (talk) 20:03, 3 October 2010 (UTC) Removing the parents' names from Wikipedia won't make them a secret, since they've already been published in independent sources. And I don't get why putting the wrong birth year in would be at all helpful. I'll try to keep an eye on Kristin Bauer. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:25, 3 October 2010 (UTC) Thanks for your help. It looks to me as though the DOB is the real issue. Ravenscroft32 (talk) 21:13, 3 October 2010 (UTC) You are? Congratulations! When did this occur, and did I !vote in the matter? ;~) LessHeard vanU (talk) 22:26, 3 October 2010 (UTC) Don't worry. I'm sure it's an oversight that will be corrected soon, since I have a wild disregard for both Wikipedia's rules and basic human courtesies. Ask any of the thousands of surly teenagers whose asses I've blocked. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:58, 3 October 2010 (UTC) Oversight? Nope, does not ring any bells... LessHeard vanU (talk) 23:07, 8 October 2010 (UTC) LoveTimes9 I'd like to put a week-long block on Lovetimes9 due to the disruptive editing he has started. Can you look into it? Rusted AutoParts (talk) 18:02 4 October 2010 (UTC) I can't find the vandalism you warned him for. If he's still vandalizing after your warning, you can report it at WP:AIV with diffs. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:38, 5 October 2010 (UTC) Mystery page Any idea what this is all about? It is linked to a Golden Globe winners page and some of the info seems to be about actress Claire Danes. Ravenscroft32 (talk) 22:17, 4 October 2010 (UTC) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yuka_dakota I'd guess that the author copy/pasted the Claire Danes article to use as a template while she worked- I've seen that before. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:34, 5 October 2010 (UTC) The Signpost: 4 October 2010 News and notes: German chapter remodeled to meet Foundation requirements, and more In the news: Spanish police pursues BLP vandals, Jimbo interviewed, advice for experts and spammers Book review: Good Faith Collaboration: The Culture of Wikipedia, by Joseph Reagle WikiProject report: Hot topics with WikiProject Volcanoes Features and admins: Milestone: 2,500th featured picture Arbitration report: Tricky and Lengthy Dispute Resolution Technology report: Code reviewers, October Engineering update, brief news Read this Signpost in full · Single-page · Unsubscribe · EdwardsBot (talk) 00:00, 5 October 2010 (UTC) Goa vs Vasco da gama Hi, could you please have a look on Talk:SpiceJet destinations and leave you expert opinion for this controversial changes. Thanks. never stop flying (talk) 03:26, 5 October 2010 (UTC) I am most certainly not an expert on the subject of airports in Goa. I couldn't even find the place on a map without the help of Wikipedia. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:36, 5 October 2010 (UTC) Despite of the recent protection of SpiceJet destinations, the edit war regarding Goa vs Vasco da gama is still ongoing. Requesting your intervention on this issue. never stop flying (talk) 11:10, 21 October 2010 (UTC) I suspect that the airport probably is in Vasco de Gama... but if it's impossible to find a source confirming that, then the article will continue to just say Goa, like all the sources do. I would be shocked if the ip isn't the same user who was pushing this odd edit before, but I've been wrong in the past. Once. In 2000. On a Thursday in June. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 16:16, 21 October 2010 (UTC) Charter airlines Hi.

If you think it is worthwhile to continue discussion, I would not object if you were to undo this. Do you think that as one of the relevant parties I should request review at AN/I? Regards, - 2/0 (cont.) 17:39, 10 October 2010 (UTC) Meh. He made it clear that he had an agenda that was at odds with Wikipedia's mission, that he intends to keep pursuing that agenda, and that he's perfectly willing to threaten off-wiki retaliation if he doesn't get his way. You won't find me fighting for his right to continue participating. You can ask for a review if you like... you won't hear any protest from me about it. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 17:40, 10 October 2010 (UTC) The Signpost: 11 October 2010 News and notes: Board resolutions, fundraiser challenge, traffic report, ten thousand good articles, and more In the news: Free culture conference, "The Register" retracts accusations, students blog about Wikipedia, and more WikiProject report: WikiProject Smithsonian Institution Features and admins: Big week for ships and music Dispatches: Tools, part 3: Style tools and wikEd Arbitration report: Tricky and Lengthy Dispute Resolution Technology report: Bugs, Repairs, and Internal Operational News Read this Signpost in full · Single-page · Unsubscribe · EdwardsBot (talk) 06:51, 12 October 2010 (UTC) Hello Please block me for 1 year for vandalism! 71.249.107.65 (talk) 23:30, 14 October 2010 (UTC) Invitation to join WikiProject Bacon !

Thank you for your time, -- Cirt (talk) 08:51, 16 October 2010 (UTC) Block evader Hi. It seems as 83.252.165.147 just won't quit, he started editing under a new IP on Djurgårdens IF Fotboll again. What should the new step be, semi-protection? Cheers Tooga - BØRK! 08:28, 18 October 2010 (UTC) Yes, and I've put it in place. I still have no idea what she objects to, since her lone explanation was in a language I don't read. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 10:34, 18 October 2010 (UTC) Google translate gives her explanation as "Why should there be a tribute text on animal farm only "glory days" from the very beginning of the article? This then provided by the "history" and should be placed there." But I can't make any connection between that and what the anon is actually doing, since she's removing information, not moving it elsewhere. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 10:36, 18 October 2010 (UTC) Oh, I see- he thinks some of the information in the lede should be further down in the article, and is moving it. I don't really have any problem with that. Maybe she'd even get that change made, if she'd stop and discuss it in English instead of edit-warring over it. Oh, well, I told her how to do that. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 10:37, 18 October 2010 (UTC) Thanks! I'll try and rewrite the lede, and see if that does the trick. Cheers Tooga - BØRK! 14:24, 18 October 2010 (UTC) Btw, it seems as though this person has created a user, seen here: Hatadif (contribs). His or her username means "Hate DIF", DIF being an acronym for the club, Djurgårdens IF, which the user have edited. The same user have also edited AIK-related pages; AIK is the arch-rival of Djurgårdens IF. In short, this is a fan of AIK who doesn't like Djurgårdens IF.

However I do feel I should clarify that the edits in question did not occur while the user was logged in, they were made by 212.219.57.60 (talk) (see WP:AN/I#212.219.57.60 / Wikiplayer13). At minimum, the editor has thus admitted to having used the same computer from which the edits were made. It is puzzling why the user would imply a compromised account, when there's really no indication that anything like this has occurred - again, the edits were made from an IP address. But he's the one making that claim. Also note that another IP associated with this account, 82.46.89.207 (talk), has previously vandalized our user pages when faced with various disagreements (for example, [1], [2], [3], [4]). -- Gyrofrog (talk) 19:19, 19 October 2010 (UTC) Yeah, I got that- I even tracked down the ip in question to review, and there isn't really any question in my mind that it's the same person. I agree that WP:GOTHACKED doesn't exactly apply here, since he didn't make the inappropriate edits from his account. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:47, 19 October 2010 (UTC) Vince123456789 Vince123456789 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is still being disruptive at the Kat Von D article, making the same edits as 92.238.185.104 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). A quick side-by-side comparison of the editing similarities of the account and IP should confirm to you they are one and the same, in addition to the Kat Von D. Thank you. O Fenian (talk) 08:08, 21 October 2010 (UTC) Thanks for the welcome, FisherQueen, and local sourcing question please added a new section in your humor essay "Friends of gays should not be allowed to edit articles" and checked your listed "LGBT rights in Benin" article in case it intersected with the Ouidah python cult there which I have been researching for a couple chapters of a near future novel series work in progress. In addition to any surveying you and colleagues might do through published law search, how might you encourage local community members to post fuller details in localities around the world for Wikipedia? As well as all other socioelect stuff? The pride, diversity, and identity drives which might be tapped may be beyond the habits of those who are or are not ordinary users in many places, if pointed out as worthwhile especially in areas where there are few regular surfers. Are there Wikipedia top down or grasroots "let's be noted in global Wikipedia" initiatives, other than long term effect of internet presence? cheers! Pandelver (talk) 22:03, 24 October 2010 (UTC) I did create a number of the LGBT rights in Africa nation-specific articles. I found that it was very difficult to find reliable sources of information. which is why they're so short- they contain all the sourced information I could find. Help from locals would indeed be useful, but only in adding information that is verified in published sources, since Wikipedia doesn't publish original research. I didn't write the 'Friends of gays' articles; I just have a link to it because I think it's funny. I don't know the answer to your question about the ways in which Wikimedia encourages participation from a variety of countries, because I live in the United States, and wouldn't be part of the target audience for such programs- there are already plenty of Americans around here. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:07, 24 October 2010 (UTC) My briefs I do not understand how the my briefs article was against the guidlines. As it is a one of a kind website providing a perspective not seen anywhere else in sports reporting I luv soccer08 (talk) 23:30, 24 October 2010 (UTC) I deleted your article because I thought it was about a subject that didn't meet the notability criteria, but I'm open to the possibility that I was wrong. If you'll provide me with links to three articles that confirm this subject's notability, in newspapers, magazines, or significant online sources, I'd be happy to undelete the article, and I'll even add the sources to it so no one else will mistake it for an inappropriate article. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:31, 24 October 2010 (UTC) Those arms FisherQueen, arms are not usually included in bio articles for chiefs or nobles in general. They stay in the main article. Xander and I included them simply because they are so nice. So there you have three. As for Irish heraldry, there was no image of that kind there before Xander added them. Personally I think that they should actually be replaced with less excellent artwork since Xander's talent might actually confuse visitors into thinking that is how Irish arms are typically drawn. In fact Irish arms are usually quite boring and they have just never greatly gotten into them on that island. Finally, for the main article on the O'Donovan family, there is another, very low quality .gif I did myself ages ago, which was the image before, and which can be used again. And I have another generic one or two to upload. I will not be participating in the discussion at ANI because this is ridiculous. And I have no intention of interacting with that sort of character anywhere. I knew as soon as I got the repeated activity on my talk page... oh and that cute template or whatever you call it. lol. DinDraithou (talk) 23:50, 24 October 2010 (UTC) I don't really have an opinion on the images, myself. I just noticed that you were about to be blocked, and wanted to give you a chance to avoid it, by explaining what to do instead of repeatedly reverting. If consensus agrees with you that they should be removed, they will be. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:52, 24 October 2010 (UTC) I was about to be blocked? By what? As far as consensus, I disregard it and don't respect the opinions of just anyone on certain subjects. Don't we all? People who get bent out of shape over nothing, like this character, don't count. They have to be ignored. DinDraithou (talk) 00:18, 25 October 2010 (UTC) Well, me, for one- I was planning to block you if you reverted another image. In fact, I still am. If you don't agree with the consensus model at all, then you probably won't like Wikipedia, since that's one of Wikipedia's basic principles. I don't really know who you mean by 'this character,' since I only reviewed your edits. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 00:24, 25 October 2010 (UTC) (edit conflict)Which 'character' would that be? The one who politely asked you to stop removing the images, twice, including an explanation of the bold, revert, discuss cycle as well as explaining to you that you have no more power over the state of an article than anyone else (despite your assertion to the contrary) or the one who summarily removed attempts at discussion, without any discussion? Let me simplify: I tried to discuss. You didn't. See also this page and this one (particularly in light of your comment here about 'the enemy'). They should prove educational for you. This page may also be of use. → ROUX ₪ 00:30, 25 October 2010 (UTC) I notice that ROUX did not begin a discussion, though. Instead, he ran right to posting an ANI. Rather silly, really. Perhaps if he was as cool headed as he demands others to be it could have gone a bit smoother. [talk] XANDERLIPTAK 00:38, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
