An award for you!

The dog's nose award
No one can identify socks as good as you. Keep up the good work! :) ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 09:51, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, we seem to have a flood of socks these last few days. Most annoying. Darkness Shines (talk) 09:54, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kashmir Edit

the edit is not about one man, it is about the fact that the man was an army major and the major was issued a passport to leave inspite of a court order in India. After that the extradition was never pursued. This is not action of one man, rather than a government. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.225.186.174 (talk) 19:21, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please sign your posts with four of these ~~~~ Did you not see my post on the article talk page? Darkness Shines (talk) 19:33, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The person editing behind this IP, (not guessing who he is) but he is well aware of the Arbcom notice and went straight ahead to file an Arbitration Request.--DBigXray 11:42, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I thing he meant that in the sense of a neutral party rather than the arbitration case, when are these discretionary sanctions getting posted anyway? Darkness Shines (talk) 12:16, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Against community consensus the Blanket sanctions on around 1,50,000 articles (broadly construed) is already in force since last night, because an arbcom clerk has posted notices on tha talk pages of affected Wikiprojects to inform editors that a sanction has been placed. eg. Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Pakistan#Arbitration_motion_regarding_Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration.2FIndia-Pakistan . (although there is some discussion here, The fact is its already enforced)--DBigXray 12:40, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Inner City Hoodlum

Thanks for pointing me to Twinkle. I don't know what I am supposed to do about a user who does not respond to messages on the user talk or article talk pages. What should I do? Just wait? There are now cleanup tags on the article page that should point the user to something helpful. Should I remove the 3RR warning, since the copy-paste warning is there? Or are you saying I should revert? Whesse (talk) 20:21, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You do not need to remove any warnings given, you need not revert, I already did it. If a user continues to add copyright material on the twinkle drop down is one titled ARV, use this to report the user for copyvios. For users who break WP:3RR you need to post to WP:AN3, be sure to not break 3RR yourself, there are only a few exemptions. Darkness Shines (talk) 20:28, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted Page

Okay...I've reviewed what you suggested and made the modifications that I hope meet your approval. If for some reason it does not, could you please be very specific as to what is objectionable. Thank you.Lisavn (talk) 08:38, 1 August 2012 (UTC) Hello again...you wrote to me and suggested that I start in sandbox...I have done so. Could you please take a look and let me know your thoughts regarding whether I have remedied the issues. Thank you...Lisavn (talk) 22:53, 31 July 2012 (UTC) Hello...I am new to writing on Wikipedia and you just deleted my submission. I edited the page to remove anything that I thought could arguably sound non-neutral and I was in the midst of adding more references when it was deleted. Could you please offer me some advice, so that I might get it undeleted? ...or do I just need to start again. Thank you for time and help! Lisavn (talk) 23:58, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

blocked

You have been temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia as a result of your disruptive edits. You are free to make constructive edits after the block has expired, but please note that vandalism (including page blanking or addition of random text), spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks; and repeated, blatant violations of our policies concerning neutral point of view and biographies of living persons will not be tolerated.

See history. --Dirk Beetstra T C 13:15, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Darkness Shines (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Reverting socks is an exemption under 3RR, unblock me. Darkness Shines (talk) 13:17, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

Clearly Nangparbat, who is banned. However I'd suggest even when it is, you seek help from elsewhere (i.e. WP:AIV) Black Kite (talk) 13:51, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've revoked your rollback flag because you used it in this edit war. Max Semenik (talk) 13:44, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
And another person who can't tell the difference between an edit war and reverting sockpuppets. Darkness Shines (talk) 13:45, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The two admins Magog and Dennis Brown have already accepted here [[1]] that he was a indeed a sock, Isn't this enough for the reviewing admin to lift the block ? --DBigXray 13:47, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
How would I know? IQ's seem to have dropped sharply overnight. Blocked for reverting a sock and roll back remove for reverting a sock, what a fucking joke. Darkness Shines (talk) 13:50, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've restored your rollback. Don't use it for anything other than obvious vandalism, though. As you've just found out, using it in a content dispute even if the other editor is banned can be mis-construed. Black Kite (talk) 13:53, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I see Black Kite beat me to the unblock, I was reviewing the rest of the situation. My apologies for the inconvenience. I do want to say here, please it is more effective to report these editors immediately to AIV, file a SPI etc. then keeping reverting them. While technically correct (exempt from 3RR etc.), it does keep inflaming the situation (and obviously does not help anyway). WP:RBI rearranged into BRI. It also avoids that you get blocked when an unknowing (and hence uninvolved) admin drops by and quick-evaluates a situation wrong. Again, my apologies. --Dirk Beetstra T C 13:57, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to all, and I did report to AIV, and requested page protection, I guess it all went awry today :o) No harm done really, I doubt my block log could have looked any worse :o) Darkness Shines (talk) 13:59, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well It(block log) indeed looks in a pretty bad shape. And most of the people commenting about the block log blindly go by the number of entries, rather than digging into the merit of those entries of blocks and unblocks. With Stalkers and Socks and few admins having a poor impression about you, I guess you need to be extra careful in your edits and reverts. --DBigXray 14:11, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Can I suggest creating a dossier for this gentleman at Wikipedia:Long-term abuse to make information about him more easily accessible? Max Semenik (talk) 20:28, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Agree This is very much needed for Nangparbat (talk · contribs). I wasnt aware that such a thing even existed. Thanks Max for pointing out.--DBigXray 20:37, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
