Hello CambridgeBayWeather. Could you please consider re-opening this AfD to give it more time to reach consensus? So far there was only the author and one other person who participated, so I think some more time for others to give their opinions would be worthwhile.

Jenna Coleman
Why did you protect the page "Jenna Coleman" while keeping wrong, unverified, and wrong tabloid rumours in there? None of the articles listed that claim that she had split from Tom Hughes provide any evidence whatsoever, while in contrast there is so much evidence to show that they did not split. Do you think Wikipedia is a place to support tabloid lies that have been proven to be wrong? — Preceding unsigned comment added by EulerLagrange42 (talk • contribs) 16:12, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi, happy new year and thanks for protecting the page. However, you set the protection to expire on 5 Jan 2021. The Deaths in XXXX pages are normally protected for the whole year, so could you please change the protection and set it to expire on 5 Jan 2022? Thanks and cheers. --Marbe166 (talk) 15:44, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Antifa full protection
Why have you put full protection on Antifa (United States)? Many editors have been working on that page constructively now we're almost all blocked because MyPreferredUsernameWasTaken was edit warring? That's not fair at all. Why not just block MyPreferredUsernameWasTaken for editwarring rather than blocking all of us from contributing? Surely that's a fairer way to approach this? Bacondrum (talk) 23:41, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Bacondrum. It was protected because CLCStudent made a request here and when I looked at the page I saw MyPreferredUsernameWasTaken and Doug Weller both reverting twice. All it needs is a few days discussion and it can be unprotected again. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 23:55, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Cool, thanks for explaining. All the best. Bacondrum (talk) 23:56, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks. I would have blocked both of them but that Doug Weller is a Florida Man originally and is thus quite scary. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 00:01, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- Do you reckon you could unlock the article now, I've filed an edit warring report. I don't think it's fair we are all locked out because MyPreferredUsernameWasTaken turned up one day and decided to edit war. Just block them. Bacondrum (talk) 06:20, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Bacondrum: They don't seem to have broken 3RR, they've only reverted twice. I doubt that they'll be blocked. CambridgeBayWeather, that's one of the funniest things I've ever been called, thanks! Doug Weller talk 07:20, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- So why can't we edit the article. Collective punishment? If an editor can't stop reverting then stop them from editing, not all of us. This fella just turned up and started edit warring and now no one can edit, that seems insane to me. Bacondrum (talk) 08:09, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- Oh shit! @Bacondrum: pardon my French, but not having edited that article in a long time I didn't realise it was at 1RR. I can see why CambridgeBayWeather mentions both of us being blocked. Maybe I should revert myself, but I still think it's a BLP violation and besides Admins shouldn't be editing a fully protected article without an excellent reason such as vandalism, copyvio, or BLP issues. Doug Weller talk 12:20, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- I never thought about it being under discretionary sanctions either. There are too many notices, 13 or 14 boxes, at the top of Talk:Antifa (United States). I don't like fully blocking people in things like this because it stops any productive discussion, which was being held on the talk page at that time. I also forgot about the ability to block from individual pages. It's −37 °C (−35 °F) here and my brain is frozen. Looking at what has been said I don't think there will be any more edit warring so I'll unprotect the page and it looks like EC is there now. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 17:35, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Just FYI - Palagummi Sainath
Hi - I see you page protected Palagummi Sainath for vandalism. There hasn't been any vandalism nor any BLP violations. User:Anasuyas was concerned about edits being made by User:GreenBlueYellow. I was contacted by Anasuya on a non-wiki platform about it and I suggested that they work it out on the talk page, as she had not yet contacted GreenBlueYellow. I did see she asked for some assistance via BLP board, but, didn't think it was necessary. I took the initiative to clean up the article, as it was a mess, and myself and User:MumbaiMedia are now doing a bit of tweaking and clean up to improve. I don't think it needs page protection, but, that's just my opinion. Anyway, have a good day. Missvain (talk) 18:57, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Name modifying of the article Relax(collective)
Hello!
If it's not bothering you, I would like to ask you the reason why you change the name of the president article RELAX(chiarenza & hauser & co) to Relax(collective), as the artists of this collective called themself as RELAX(chiarenza & hauser & co) since 1997? And the recents articles talked about them also used their name RELAX(chiarenza & hauser & co). (ref:https://www.sikart.ch/KuenstlerInnen.aspx?id=11000024) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xinyi Fox Hu (talk • contribs) 14:48, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Xinyi Fox Hu I checked at http://www.relax-studios.ch/ and there was no indication of an unspaced ( being used. So is the correct name of the company "Relax chiarenza & hauser & co" as shown here or "Relax (chiarenza & hauser & co)" as shown here. It appears that everybody use the () except the collective itself. Wikipedia uses normal English rules so Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Trademarks would apply to the word "Relax".

Hi, part of the point of semi-protection is to encourage the IP to create an account so that a discussion can be had about COI and how to request changes on talk. This can't be done when the IP address keeps changing, and pending changes is unlikely to achieve it. If you really are unwilling to add semi-protection, please add the page to your watchlist so that you can maintain it from now on, as I prefer not to work with pending changes. SarahSV (talk) 19:25, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- There is not enough activity at this time to require semi protection. In fact there isn't really much justification for pending but because of who you are I figured it was acceptable. However, you should stop with the attempts to guilt me into doing what you ask. Have you thought about a range block? CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 05:21, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- Taking the article off my watchlist is no skin off my nose, and it's not a question of trying to "guilt" you. It's that an editor asked for help at RfPP with a long-term problem, and an admin responded by making things harder for that editor (in that editor's opinion), then dug his heels in about it. That's just not a good use of RfPP.
- Pending changes is fiddly and adds to the workload. In addition, the problem is long-term, so looking at whether there's "enough activity at this time" for semi-protection missed the point. And if semi-protection can't be justified in your view, a range block certainly can't. The IP isn't doing anything wrong from their perspective; they simply need to be stopped from doing it at that article so they create an account, which will allow discussion to take place about apparent COI and how to request edits. The easiest way to achieve that was with semi-protection. But I'm repeating myself, so I'll leave it there. SarahSV (talk) 21:49, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Request to remove move blocks by User:BereanHunter
Good afternoon User:CambridgeBayWeather Wikipedia Administrator,
As a Cypriot Greek in Camden , London I noticed that trying to submit a draft on Theatro Technis on the Wikipedia EN page has been restricted to administrators by a User Berean Hunter, a) 04:20, 28 February 2020 Berean Hunter talk contribs protected Draft:Theatro Technis [Create=Require administrator access] (indefinite) (Repeatedly recreated) which in reality means zero chance of it happening. b) I noticed on this User`s talk page that BereanHunter has been removed as a check user : changes to functionary team[edit] At his own request, the Oversight permission of Someguy1221 are removed. In addition, in accordance with the policy on CheckUser and Oversighter inactivity, the CheckUser rights of Berean Hunter are removed. The Arbitration Committee sincerely thanks Someguy1221 and Berean Hunter for their service as functionaries. For the Arbitration Committee, Katietalk 15:32, 8 January 2021 (UTC) Discuss this at: Wikipedia talk:Arbitration Committee/Noticeboard § changes to functionary team c) I also have noticed that you have on a previous occasion removed his administrator access] (indefinite) on the Angelique Rockas article but still restricted its editing. d) There is something wrong here as Theatro Technis and Angelique Rockas are artistically linked , and suspicions arise as to whether this User was an ethno racist. e)Googling and binging the artist Angelique Rockas you can also see that there are serious omissions of her theatre work. Can this be attributed to User:BereanHunter and colluders? Can you remedy this? Thank you IPG adress recorded Keep safe! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.191.67.225 (talk) 11:51, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- I can't make sense of this. It's just a non-stop, small wall of text. Berean Hunter is an administrator and call deal with your request but I suggest that you don't insult people. 12:01, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Good Morning @CambridgeBayWater
Sorry for the messy post and my inadequacy, and I apologize for the insult. Thank you for the link to Berean Hunter ,which on its contribution page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Berean_Hunter reveals that he has not operated as a Wikipedia administrator and contributor since October 1st 2020. Berean Hunter has also been removed by the Wikipedia Arbitration Committee from being a CheckUser. This leaves the problem that any submission of an article by the lay public on Theatro Technis (in red ) seen in the Angelique Rockas article is restricted to a draft only submitted by administrators. As previously indicated in reality this means zero chance of it happening. My request to you please is that you remove this block by the non operational Berean Hunter on the Draft Theatro Technis , as well as blocks to the lay public on the Angelique Rockas page and allow the lay public to do its job. On the Angelique Rockas page the connection to work at Theatro Technis is considerable , and the work related to Internationalist Theatre and work as an artist is in need of citation, text for the production photographs on this page, performances and reception et. It has not had any contributions for quite some time. As you are the most recent monitor on this artist`s page there is no need for blocks as you will be policing it for any fakery. Thank you Keep safe IPG address recorded — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.191.67.225 (talk) 12:42, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
- I'm not the moderator, nobody is, for Angelique Rockas and I don't think reducing the protection level is a good idea. As for the Theatro Technis there is nothing to stop you from creating an account and starting the article in you own user space.

Hello. Question re: article - Decentralized Trials and Research Alliance (DTRA)
Good morning,
Thanks for the guidance on the DTRA page. I just had two quick questions, and I'm hoping you wouldn't mind sharing your advice. Since the articles cited were publicly available, do I need to obtain the copyright permission to cite or quote from them, or was my use proper? In addition, were the quotes simply too long? I felt that I could make the point with much shorter quotes, but wanted to confirm if the length of the three quotes were problematic.
I edited a few articles some years ago, but this is the first article I've actually written for Wikipedia, so I'm looking for whatever guidance you can share. Thank you, in advance.

Template:CambridgeBayWeather Thank you - I'm not sure if this is the right way to respond, but can't figure out where else to respond. clearly, I'm having trouble. I'm not sure where I would find the link to where source material is released under license. Do I need to contact the webmaster at the publication's website to get that link? I'm sorry to be asking so many incredibly basic questions, but I'm really very confused by the process. Again, I appreciate your patience. John Jnobianchi (talk) 18:00, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
- Jnobianchi. Do you have a link to where you saw the material? No worries about the questions. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 19:53, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
Template:CambridgeBayWeather Thank you! Yes, I have.

- Jnobianchi My apologies. I realised that there was only the one line, part of a sentence, from the official press release. I have restored the article at Decentralized Trials & Research Alliance as it doesn't need the (DTRA). I fixed the quote so that it is obvious. However, if you could rewrite that in your own words it would be better. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 23:40, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
Template:CambridgeBayWeather Thank you very much for restoring the article. My apologies for the delay in response. I will go back in and re-write that section in my own words. Thanks again! - john Jnobianchi (talk) 17:36, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Miscellany Direct Differentiation and Integration of Logarithms
I searched the main space and I'm sure it's not covered at all. This is from historical time point of view. Differentiation and Integration remained unsolved for a long time since 80's and before at time of big Calculus. Now a days, it is solved and referenced, and all Mathematics Scientists are using it in their university classes from the highest level to high school levels. So this is famous and important topic showing time passed (on logarithms) while incomplete topic in mathematics. No any article in wikipedia shows this perspective of logarithms and mathematics. This is posted to all voters

- Kkmal.Hamouda I take it you are talking about Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Direct differentiation and integration of logarithms. If so what is your question? CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 16:46, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
It is about voting about my article. I expect accepting my article when youbvoted, and not to delete it. It isn't in the main space at all and not in any other formats.

- Kkmal.Hamouda. You don't need to start a new section every time you post here. I didn't "vote" on your article. Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Direct differentiation and integration of logarithms was a discussion about keeping or deleting the actual draft. I closed the discussion, having read and assessed all the points made, and deleted the article. This was in no way based on the non-existence of an article. The editors discussing felt that the topic was already covered in other places on Wikipedia and that this draft did not expand on that. If you wish I can restore it to User:Kkmal.Hamouda/sandbox where you can work on it and there will be less chance of it being deleted. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 21:36, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Kkmal.Hamouda Thank you for the message. For drafts, consider consulting to the help desk or Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mathematics instead of sending a message to the talk page of all voters. Since it was the same topic, I will reply here.--SilverMatsu (talk) 08:13, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
Please readd these credited sources. Due to vandalism they were repeatedly removed, and now I cannot readd them - page: Jake Angeli
In prosecution against him, prosecutors wrote that "strong evidence, including Chansley's own words and actions at the Capitol, supports that the intent of the Capitol rioters was to capture and assassinate elected officials in the United States government." The filing describes Chansley as "a self-proclaimed leader of the QAnon" and drug user who "demonstrates scattered and fanciful thoughts, and is unable to appreciate reality. He is the shaman of a dangerous extremist group, putting his beliefs into action by attempting to violently overthrow the United States government." [1]
Chansley has since disavowed his allegiance to Trump and has stated he would testify against him, claiming he feels "betrayed" Trump did not pardon him.[2]

template:Nudity marked "historical"
Hello. I do not understand this edit. No explanation given, and it is used on articles. Does seem historical. A mistake or? Christian75 (talk) 17:45, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
- Christian75 Thanks for catching that. It was from Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Nudity portal subpages. I was using Twinkle and missed that Portal:Nudity/Nudity-related topics was a redirect to the template. I removed the historical tag and added it the portal page.

Music 2021 Film
Would you mind simply keeping an eye on the page Music (2021 film) after protection expires to help keep an eye if an edit war were to reignite? 188.220.86.46 (talk) 00:18, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
Regarding this, thank you for protecting the one page, but I see you did not protect the other two. Do I need to create separate requests for each individual page? - Adolphus79 (talk) 03:47, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

I don't argue about the close, but note that R2 and U2 didn't apply because the redirect wasn't a cross-namespace redirect and U2 says that except [...] redirects from misspellings of an established user's user page

Please remove full protection on Cultural Marxism conspiracy theory
Hi, can you please remove the full protection you placed on this article Cultural Marxism conspiracy theory. Those of us who regularly edit that article do so respectfully and without much conflict or disruption overall. Recently this user Jfraatz just turned up and started edit warring, there is no need to punish all of the regular editors because a single disruptive editor turns up launches into an editwar, the article should be open to non-disruptive editors, and Jfraatz should be blocked for edit warring. I don't see a full protection (which looks like collective punishment of non-disruptive and disruptive editors alike) as necessary, it seems like a massive overkill, why cant we just block the disruptive editor: Jfraatz? They turned up, started edit warring and never discussed anything at talk, why are we being punished for their behavior? Can you please remove the full protection and sanction the disruptive party rather than all of us? Bacondrum 01:08, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
Kadir Mısıroğlu
The user Aybeg has reverted all credible news article sources with cheap, yellow journalism conspiracy theory reports. You might want to check out his recent edits and revert his POV inspired changes. He sounds very emotional. Careful. Thanks, 176.55.114.194 (talk) 17:52, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

Music (Sia) - Difficulty in reaching discussions...
There are two users, Ssilvers and Peterpie123rww who are proving, difficult to actually get into discussions with. I think they have a rather strong bias against IP editors, and I did let myself get caught up in the heat of the moment in some of the earlier edits of the page a bit (my fault there).
Myself, and other editors really, have tried to open discussions, provide reasoning, and so forth, but these two editors are proving rather difficult to actually properly discuss things with, whenever I raise points they are rather quick to just accuse me of edit warring and sockpuppetry and not actually address the edits. I did try to open a RfC, but they largely refused to participate. The protection period did help things cool down, but it seems to be picking up pace again gradually.
I'm not familiar with all of the different disciplinary and advisory channels, and I'm hesitant to go accusing them of meatpuppetry or some other nefarious activity, but it really does seem like we have a slight problem here.
I guess I'm asking you as a far more senior individual who hasn't really been involved in the page, but is aware of it, to perhaps help sort this mess out a little bit, either opening up an actual discussion with them, or if you feel it's necessary, taking some action in the matter.
Likewise if I'm still making any missteps, I'd love to know so I can fix it out, I am doing my best on learning different bits, but wikipedia does have a tremendous amount of rules, regulations, and community consensuses!

- So interesting to be pinged here by this edit warrior! Yes, please do look into the history of edits on that page. -- Ssilvers (talk) 01:03, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- At it with the name-calling again. I won't get into an argument on Cambridge's page, but honestly, I'm just trying to actually foster some reasonable communication and discussion, so some actual productive editing can happen, and we can avoid any nasty edit wars or other such incidents. As stated, the RfC failed to move things forward much, my hope is Cambridge if they are up to it might act as an unbiased witness to this all so we can civilly sort it out and work out what needs to be done. 188.220.86.46 (talk) 02:26, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
