Abusive IP User Watch



Did you see what the article looked like when I put the db tag on it? I notified the user that it was going to be deleted because they had made it look like a website, not an encyclopedia article, and when I put the db tag on it, they removed it immediately, and then when I put the afd tag on it, an anon removed it, and the other user immediately removed it, too. I'm not coming down hard, I'm trying to explain how they need to prove notability. Corvus cornixtalk 23:08, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted your speedy back to an afd, since the anon removed the speedy, they gave a reason on the article's Talk page, so edit warring over a speedy deletion tag isn't done. Edit warring over an afd tag, is, though.  :) Once more and the anon will get blocked. Corvus cornixtalk 23:14, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly I could care less about how "right" you are and more about your Edit Waring and possible 3R violation. You are taking this too personal. There are other means of escellation.You assume this is being done maliciously, but may be simply an person ignorant of the policies. A temporary block, a page protection, and a sockpuppet warning should calm things down. Tiggerjay (talk) 23:23, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Woah! What? How am I escalating anything? Once a speedy deletion tag has been removed, the deletion process requires an AfD, you can't put a speedy tag back on. That's the rules. I didn't make them up. And I fail to see how I'm doing anything wrong, and I thought we were working in conjunction here until you suddenly got pissy. I'm shocked at your response. Really. Corvus cornixtalk 23:33, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, did you read the part about 3RR where it says repeatedly reverting vandalism isn't covered? Corvus cornixtalk 23:33, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Corvus, honestly we can disagree on the approach, no problem - we are on the same page that something needs to be done. Although in reference to your 3R:

if you find yourself reverting edits due to simple vandalism, you should list that person at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism (WP:AIV).

Only after they've had their full quota of warnings. They have now had 4, any further vandalism can be reported at AIV. I do know how to do this.  :) Corvus cornixtalk 23:57, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for your edits of the GGWO article. I am now in an editting dispute with someone else and so got the page protected. As a neutral party, can you please help us through this dispute? Spinkava (talk) 20:57, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your involvement with editing this page and your interest in having a consensus reached in this article so the block can be lifted and the article to be brought to some sort of consensus. I was brought in by a request on the Christianity Project page to have someone review the article. I have absolutely no former knowledge of GGWO, nor any particular bias. All I can tell you it in its current state, it looks like an absolute disaster (both the article, and the organization as a whole). My hopes is to help bring the interested editors to the table on the talk page to resolve the conflicts and have the page properly created/edited. Please take a moment to go over to the talk page and review my most recent postings. Also do no be alarmed as your earlier comments/posts were refactored and archived (there is a link available on the page to the archive). My post is only one of several which will hopefully help guide this page towards something everybody can agree is appropriate. Tiggerjay (talk) 00:28, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I wish you the best of luck regarding this page. I cannot be part of any effort that abuses the ideas of developing a good article to the point of trashing peoples edits. While I strongly disagree with those who have edits for GGWO I would not simply undo their work or remove their work which has been done so many times I cannot count. It is as though we have admins supporting the efforts of vandals. Again I think that regardless of the opinion editors should try at best to respect the work of others. I have done so. But that appears to be unacceptable by my peers.
To which I say this article will either be useless or a promotion of GGWO.

Hi Tiggerjay,

Thanks you for you feedback on my article. You mentioned that you are going to try to copyedit the article today, what does that mean?

What needs to be done to the article so I can put it in mainspace?


Thanks for your help!

BuffFans (talk) 14:24, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BuffFans, I will try to go through the article and make it conform to the wikipedia style, removing the advertising feel of the article, and overall cleanup. What I will be doing in part is WP:COPYEDITING your work. Tiggerjay (talk) 17:10, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thanks for doing that.
How will I know that it is done? And can I read it before it is moved to the mainspace?
Once it is approved by you, do you or I move it to mainspace?
Thanks Tiggerjay — Preceding unsigned comment added by BuffFans (talkcontribs)
I will make the changes directly on your page and place a comment both here and on the article talk page when I think I'm done -- then we'll see if we can get one or two other editors to peer-review it and then repost it to the main space. Tiggerjay (talk) 19:49, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alight, my first pass is completed, and I discovered that there is a serious, notability issue which is addressed in greater detail on the article talk page. Please reply over there and add additional content to the article itself as appropraite. Thanks. Tiggerjay (talk) 20:12, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WD

I was just trying to format the references. I can't stand just the URL's and nothing else.

I notice most all of them are "bot generated"....that is sad. I wish contributors would take better care with references, they will make or break Wikipedia's credibility.

This page www.justdisney.com/walt_disney/biography/long_bio.html is down, but I have emailed them and asked them to fix it.

It looks like the site has been down for a while, and the editor is no longer contributing to it. Here is the wayback link [1].
Yes, sometimes I think if I created a website and then I bite it, poor website. It just hangs there until the host shuts if off. IP4240207xx (talk)

Signature

Hello Tj! On the help desk you asked if I could apply fonts to signatures. I thought I could, but apparently I got this wrong. WikiZorro
I typed this code, yet it came out in Times New Roman! [[User:WikiZorro|<font color="slategray" face="Lucida Handwriting ">'''Wiki'''</font>]][[User talk:WikiZorro|<font color="navy" face="Lucida Handwriting">'''Zorro'''</font>]] . What did I do wrong! If it shows up as Lucida Handwriting to you, It could be my computer. Thanks! Wiki Zorro 22:17, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The first signature I see above looks correct in Lucida Handwriting. The second looks like Ariel or Helvetica or something similar -- If you don't see the first in a cursive sort of font, then you probably don't have that font on your computer - I believe it is a default font on the PC, but I'm not sure about Macs or Linux. Tiggerjay (talk) 05:46, 15 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I really have limited fonts on my computer I guess! WikiZorro 21:38, 15 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Original D Edits Lately

Hello, I am the person who did the editing of many Disney pages recently. I want to apologize for adding on so many pages for I didn't fully understand what the External Links policy was. I saw links to random pages that seemed to have nothing to do with attraction remain while the links to Original D that contained a Video of the Attraction kept getting deleted. In my frustration I just added it back. For this I want to apologize. Now that I full understand everything I would like to ask that my edit today on 5/14/08 on the main Disneyland page be looked at. I added a link to Original D in the External Links section along side many other sites that are similar. The difference with Original D is it is unique because it is only about Disneyland and organized information that adds to the article with videos of almost all of the Attractions in the park. I also added a link to the official Disney sites for each park, the hotels, and the Downtown Disney area.

In a nutshell, I apologize and will not spam any of the attraction pages (even though some of them have external links that seem to have nothing to do with the attraction, but whatever. I'll leave them alone.  :)) But please consider the edits I made today on the Disneyland main page. I feel it was a fair edit organizing the links and adding several links (Not just Original D) that I feel are very crucial for Disneyland information. 71.116.162.179 (talk) 01:03, 15 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I left some additional information on your talk page. Tiggerjay (talk) 05:40, 15 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tiggerjay, please read my comment on this page. Thanks! -Dewdrinker19 (talk) 01:24, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

To be included, please check the following references to ensure that the reason why they are notable is accurate: WP:BAND for Jose Matos; and WP:CORP for Jose Jaqeuz. If you believe them to meet these criteria, I recommend that you first make appropriate pages for each individual and/or their company; then add them to the IHS page, so the links appear appropriate. Matos will have a good chance of sticking around; but there is little chance the Jaquez will stick (but still worth trying if you believe he passes the requirements of WP:CORP). Good luck Tiggerjay (talk) 06:20, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
