User talk:JBW

If I left you a message on your talk page: please answer on your talk page, and let me know, by pinging me there, or if you prefer by dropping a note on this page. (I make scarcely any use of watchlisting, because I have found otherwise I am unable to keep it under control, and soon build up such a huge watchlist that it is unworkable.) If you leave me a message here: I will answer here, unless you request otherwise, or I think there are particular reasons to do otherwise, and usually I will ping you to let you know. Please add new sections to the bottom of this page, and new messages to the bottoms of their sections. New messages at the top of the page may be overlooked. Clicking here will open a new section at the bottom of the page for a new message. After a section has not been edited for a week it is automatically moved to the latest archive. Links to those archives are given below. However, I reserve the right to delete vandalism, trolling or other unconstructive edits without archiving them.

Page deleted

I need my Sandbox page back that you deleted urgently please. That was my work and I hadn't saved it anywhere else. Please can you send to me. How can you just delete it with no warning, without giving me a chance to edit it? I hadn't even submitted for approval yet so I don't see what the problem is.

@Gracecharlotte90: Hi, Grace. If you enable email on your account I will email you a copy of the deleted page. To do that, go to the "preferences" link at the top of the page, scroll down to "Email options", and click "Set an email address". When you have enabled email, let me know.

50.25.13.13 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), who you blocked (most recently as 50.26.87.227 (talk · contribs · WHOIS)), is back evading the block from 74.196.20.206 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) continuing the same pattern of vandalism. Could you block the new IP? Thanks. Eric444 (talk) 07:55, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Jackpot Mobile Casino

Hi my new topic Jackpot mobile casino posted on 13th on this month is also marked as not relevant. can you please help why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prath520 (talk • contribs) 14:07, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean by "marked as not relevant", but the page was deleted because it was an advertisement. Wikipedia is not a free advertising service. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 15:58, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Hello James. It looks like your 48-hrs-block unfortunately did not help much: [1]... Best regards, --Gereon K. (talk) 22:12, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

@Gereon K.: I'm not at all surprised. thanks for letting me know. I have blocked the new IP address, and semi-protected the article for a while. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:03, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Patsi Arias

Hi,

I represent the management for news anchor Patsi Arias. I'm attempting to create a new page for Patsi. A page was previously created back in 2011 but never completed. When attempting to start over again today, I see that the page was deleted. I'd like to re-create the page. Patsi Arias is a veteran news anchor currently with Time Warner Cable's NY1Noticias.http://www.mediamoves.com/2014/12/patsi-arias-named-anchor-at-ny1-noticias.html She is the full time news anchor. She was previously with Telemundo's morning show UnNueva Dia as the NY correspondent and prior to that, was with Telemundo 47 for 7 years where she earned a total of 3 Emmy Awards. If we neglected to add sources and verify information, then we shall most certainly do so on the new page. Please advise if there are any issues with continuing in the creation of the new page.AccentTalent (talk) 12:35, 23 March 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by AccentTalent (talk • contribs) 12:35, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

@AccentTalent: The first thing to point out is that if you represent Patsi Arias's management then you should not be creating an article about her, as you may find it difficult to write from the neutral point of view that is required for a Wikipedia article. Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines caution against creating an article on a subject to which you have a close personal connection. The article was deleted because of a lack of sources. The one source you linked to is merely an announcement that she had got a new position, which really does not amount to the kind of substantial coverage required by Wikipedia's notability guideline. Please note that I am not making any judgement as to whether she is not notable or not, I am just saying that so far nobody has produced sufficient evidence that she satisfies Wikipedia's notability standards. You may find it helpful to read WP:NOT and WP:BIO, which give information about what kind of evidence of notability is needed.

Hi, hello, I'm Boyconga278. Can you help me! Please, you looks to history from Uishaki continuing the same pattern of vandalism have reverted 2 edits, such as the edit it made to Template:2016 AFC U-23 Championship qualification (2nd place), Could you may block to it! thank you! Boyconga278 (talk) 18:34, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

@Boyconga278: Can you explain why it's vandalism? I see you and Uishaki reverted one another, but I know nothing about the subject, so I am unable to tell whether it is vandalism or not. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 19:34, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Regarding OccultZone

I see that you have good standing with OccultZone, so I hope you can counsel him on this a little. If you noticed, most of the links Swarm had pointed out were in response to my edits. The only thing that allowed me to survive the wave block was that I saw the situation escalating and chose to stay out of there for a while especially after other new editors got into the fracas. And chose absurdly bad timing (my timezone, my bad) to return and re-instate what I felt was still being discussed on talk, shortly after he was blocked (which I didn't know - I was still telling him this was going nowhere and we should move it to another forum - which someone else already did - which I again didn't realise).

The problem is, he thinks that I was socking as those new editors who were arguing with him just before he got blocked. You're right in saying its across different topics. Instead, the common denominator in the big picture is what he perceives as him protecting that page against me and my alleged scary army of socks. He thinks he is warring with me. Ergo, I was the cause of his grief, so he's now throwing anything/everything at me hoping something sticks. Either that or he thinks the socks could be my retired brother. I'm very transparent on all these. Also, if you are able to, could you tell me how Checkuser can be expedited so that he and I can get this sock nonsense out of the way? Or should I make a specific request at one of the Wikitalk pages?

Thanks in advance and Best Regards. Zhanzhao (talk) 01:12, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
