Cause of death vandal?

I haven't dealt with this one in a while, and I'm rusty on identifying it. 86.174.162.59 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) looks likely, though. What do you think? Subtle date changes in the infobox, "cause of death" additions, UK geolocation... NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:44, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

That's the guy. Same behaviour, same geolocation. Binksternet (talk) 14:16, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Gorillaz (album)

Davin Albarn co-founded the Gorillaz and it said "David Albarn chronology." Xerneas2016 (talk) 06:20, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

You wrote "Gorillaz and Damon Albarn". Is that what is printed on the album cover, or listed as the artist in places where the music is sold? No, it's just "Gorillaz" without the Damon Albarn. Binksternet (talk) 07:12, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

What makes you think that the eBay auction item was legit? It could be fake. Binksternet (talk) 06:08, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

Rona Ambrose is a pro-life feminist

Hello Binksternet,

Rona Ambrose, the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada is has been active in "organizations including the Status of Women Action Group and the Edmonton Women's Shelter, and her education at the University of Victoria and the University of Alberta reportedly included an undergraduate degree in feminist studies". She was also the Minister of Status of Women Please stop reverting the Pro-life feminism article by refusing to include her in the list of pro-life feminists.Ontario Teacher BFA BEd (talk) 17:09, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

You have now violated the 1RR limitation placed on all abortion topics. You will want to revert yourself to prevent being blocked.

Regarding Rona Ambrose, your sources do not call her specifically a pro-life feminist. Instead, you are pointing to her pro-life stance, and you are arguing that she is a feminist because of her position. Don't you think it possible that an anti-feminist could possibly be given control of the ministry of the Status of Women? Yes, it's possible. Binksternet (talk) 17:13, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello Binksternet,

Just to be clear, I only reverted your removal of Rona Ambrose once, not twice. Additionally, you have filed a complaint before attempting to discuss the issue on the talk page. As an experienced editor, I would have expected you to attempt to discuss the issue first, rather than unnecessarily escalating the matter. That being said, I have noticed you have now joined the discussion on the talk page, and we will continue this discussion there. Ontario Teacher BFA BEd (talk) 18:22, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Clear? Your second revert most certainly restored Mother Teresa, even if you only intended to restore Rona Ambrose. Regardless of which woman you were trying to restore, the sanctions allow only one revert per day. You violated that. Binksternet (talk) 18:33, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Vandalisms

if you don't stop reverting my good edits i will start with real vandalisms in other pages, while if you stop i will stop i promise, they're not vandalisms so please stop or that's what i'll do--82.55.246.250 (talk) 18:05, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

For an Italian guy like yourself I don't have to translate persona non grata. You have created far too many sockpuppet accounts to evade your blocks, so the only way you'll ever get back in to editing English-language Wikipedia is by laying off completely for six months then asking an administrator whether you qualify for the Wikipedia:Standard offer. Otherwise, I'm quite right in following WP:EVADE which says "Anyone is free to revert any edits made in violation of a block, without giving any further reason and without regard to the three-revert rule." That means anything you do with sockpuppets and IP addresses on Wikipedia while your Asasdfadf and Giubbotto non ortodosso ‎accounts are blocked can be freely reverted. It's obviously in Wikipedia's best interest for people to retain edits that improve the encyclopedia, so if you make good edits they might be retained, but there's no guarantee of that. You don't have the right to complain about it in any case.The main point is that your contributions have been determined to be far more disruptive than beneficial, so you are not welcome at this time to edit here. Perhaps you will see things differently in six months, and will be able to return to editing. Binksternet (talk) 18:48, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Ok i'll stop for 6 months, but i found it a little bit unfair, nobody told me that i can't edit with differents accounts, my objective isn't vandalize en.wiki or annoy people, i just wanna edit, and if i have to wait i'll do it, but the edits that you are reverting were not vandalisms, that's the only reason why i did those sockpuppets--82.55.246.116 (talk) 19:00, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Super Tweeter

Dude I find you reverted the information I added onto the need for super tweeters.

Considering your background did you understand the content added?

Further you mention the needs are shown as application specific hence not deemed as a need. As a fact all needs/determinants are dependent on intended application. Pertinently here you don't need a super tweeter unless your source is hi resolution audio Mathurparijat (talk) 20:12, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

That's putting the cart before the horse. The need comes from the opposite direction. Somebody would need a super tweeter if they wanted to generate sounds in air at, say, 60 kHz, to fit a certain application. The application might be industrial vibration tests, or ultrasonic cleaning, or sending signals to animals that can hear higher frequencies than humans. Your assertion was that a high resolution digital audio signal needs a super tweeter to reproduce it, which is backwards thinking. You are saying that a certain tool needs another certain tool, regardless of the job at hand. It's the job that matters. Binksternet (talk) 20:54, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Huh?

What edit to Devo? I mean, I listen to them, I like them, but what disruptive edit are you referring to? I just checked and the genres are the same as they've always been. 142.55.48.30 (talk) 15:08, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

You put "post-punk" as the genre but by far the most observers call them new wave. Binksternet (talk) 17:52, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

As far as I can tell, new wave and post-punk are both in the Devo article, as both can be easily sourced. 142.55.48.18 (talk) 20:43, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Yet new wave is by far the most commonly used genre for the band. So per WP:WEIGHT, the new wave genre is primary. Binksternet (talk) 22:00, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

I agree, and never edited otherwise. The article looks fine to me as is. :P 142.55.48.18 (talk) 22:10, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Olivia Newton-John, Category:Teen idols

Hi, Binksternet. I see you reverted the addition of Category:Teen idols on Olivia Newton-John. I nearly did so myself, but after reading the description of Teen idol ("a celebrity with a large teenage fan-base"), opted not to. (I remember, personally, being a 13-year-old part of that teenage fan base, with a poster of Olivia on my bedroom wall, and countless pleasant dreams in which she was featured. But I digress.)

It would seem to me that ONJ would meet the description as much as anyone else, but looking at WP:CATDEF, I'm thinking of that from the opposite side of the coin. As I said, I think if anyone meets the criterion, ONJ does, but perhaps that means the category is inherently subjective and not consistent with WP:Categorization at all; perhaps it should be deleted.

What are your thoughts? TJRC (talk) 21:20, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

All I'm looking for is article text addressing the teen idol status so that the category can be supported. If there's a reliable source that describes somebody's teen idol status then some article prose about that situation would make the category stick. Binksternet (talk) 01:50, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Makes sense. Thanks. TJRC (talk) 20:20, 1 April 2016 (UTC)
