User talk:35.135.179.48

Greetings fellow editor

Hello, I notice that you are claiming that the USNVGT is active online. Can you shed some light on your claims? In case you were unaware that team ceased to exist decades ago. They had a trademark to the name but it has expired many years ago.

During the sale of Twin Galaxies from Walter Day to the new owner, some of the intellectual property was not handed over including the USNVGT. They have not had a single event, game, contest, tournament etc. since the 80's. Remember, friend, e-sports teams actually compete with other teams. datagod (talk) 🍁 19:42, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The modern USNVGT hosted events and a panel at the Mo Game Con in August 2017, at least one tournament was held by them in 2015 in Texas, member Lon Mcdonald has played hundreds of exhibition games of Joust over the past many years under the USNVGT name and the January 2017 issue of Play Meter Magazine had a multi page feature on the team's modern efforts.

You are gaslighting using your inane one sided fued with Patrick Scot Patterson to make abusive edits of Wikipedia, claiming he is using the site to self-promote when the edits you are removing were input by numerous other parties. I asked him if he was using Wiki in any way and he was unaware of anything about it.

But everything I posted to answer your question could be found quite quickly. You either do not wish to put forth the effort or you want to play stupid in order to justify your Rudy-like behavior toward a person who wouldn't care if you walked under a piano tomorrow.

I will be reporting your vandalizm to Wiki should it continue. 35.135.179.48 (talk) 14:24, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good sir, you make big claims but you didn't post any links to prove them. The USNVGT has been out of business for 7 years now. That is not current. Even their trademark has expired. Organizations that are serious will make sure to hang on to valuable intellectual property. datagod (talk) 🍁 22:23, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You are claiming not to be Mr. Peterson, but you know his intimate thoughts. You are defending him in multiple articles, making sure his unsourced claims are restored. You claim to be on intimate speaking terms with him. Your IP address homes in directly to an area of town in Denton Texas that has storage units and Section 8 housing. You even mention his best friend Rudy. But of course you are not him. He would never use wikipedia or sock puppet accounts to support him. Regardless, your activity is being monitored and your ban is justified. datagod (talk) 🍁 01:41, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Petersen denied publicly today knowing anything about wiki edits at all. So you, anonymous user, either can't keep your lies straight or your didn't speak to him. Which is it? Is he lying about talking to you or are you lying about talking to him? In either case you have shown yourself to be untrustworthy and irrelevent. datagod (talk) 🍁 21:56, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm Serge, an Admin here on Wikipedia. I've seen you multiple times now restore unsourced information to Wikipedia. This is against policy. Wikipedia's entire premise is writing according to what can be verified by reliable sources. And the burden to find sources is on the person who is adding or restoring content.

Please do not add/restore any more unsourced content. See WP:REFB if you need help with how to add sources. But if you don't stop, you'll be blocked from editing or locked out of editing certain articles. Sergecross73 msg me 23:58, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 00:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was reverting vandalism by user Datagod who is using his personal beef with one Patrick Scot Patterson to remove infom about him all over wiki. If some one can vandalize articles and not get punish but ther person who fixes it gets banned that is sad. Wiki should look into Datagod behavior not mine 35.135.179.48 (talk) 17:05, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, 35.135.179.48. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 00:59, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Making Wikipedia Better

Hello anonymous user 35.135.179.48. It was strongly suggested that we come to a talk area where we can continue our discussion.

I am afraid we may have gotten off on the wrong foot. My edits were simply to remove unsourced claims and links that have a conflict of interest.

You claim to be a very close friend of Mr. Peterson, perhaps even the eager young historian that he so fondly spoke of before. As you know, editing Wikipedia articles to include links to paid promotions and articles that you or Mr. Peterson wrote yourself (and received a well deserved small compensation for) is known as a conflict of interest. You failed to disclose this conflict. There are forms you can fill out. Back in 2017 another anonymous account who claimed to be the best friend of Mr. Peterson was also doing the same thing with the USNVGT page. Making unsourced edits, removing edits by others that went against your narrative. The USNVGT as you know played a vital part of the early history of e-sports -- especially under the guidance of Walter Day. Somehow Mr. Peterson claimed he was the new owner, and all of a sudden the wikipedia article was modified to point back to his own personal website, his youtube channel, etc. All of which are against the guidelines for self promotion and conflicts of interest. An anonymous account made the changes, yet on social media Mr. Peterson complained daily about how the wikipedia editors are "out of touch" and "don't understand video game history" etc. Denying any direct involvement, yet within minutes the anonymous account would make changes on wikipedia and he would complain about other editors reverting his changes.

Of course I am not saying you are the same anonymous account. I am just discussing how strange it is that TWO anonymous wikipedia editors both claim to be best friends with Mr. Peterson while also modifying articles to put him in a positive light and link back to his websites and social media accounts.

I would also like to point out that this particular IP address geo-locates to the local library where Mr. Peterson does most of his video work. It is an attractive historical building, so kudos to him for upping his game that way.

If you would like to explain how this is not a conflict of interest, and if you like to provide proper citation for your links we can certainly work together on that and fix up the articles so they are no longer violating the policies.

I look forward to working with you on this matter. Feel free to reach out to me on this platform any time. datagod (talk) 🍁 15:48, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
