User talk:Psychonaut/Archive 10

I do not use "talkback" templates. There is no need to leave me such templates.
I don't edit Wikipedia to collect baubles. If you wish to express appreciation for something I've done, a brief message in your own words would be vastly prefered over a templated "award" or "barnstar".

Thanks for the notice. If the vandalism continues you can request that the page be protected at WP:RPP. —Psychonaut (talk) 14:38, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

India Forum links

Hi! I have been removing India Forum links from the article space as its blacklisted now. However, i have come across some articles where the links are presented as evidence to copyrights violation. Example article Shilpa Shinde and Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. Hence i won't be removing those. In case you (or your page-stalkers and copyvio fighters) plan to clean copyvio articles after your vacation, do clean these first. Then we could be free of this site from article space.
Also... do we do anything about non-article space usage of this site? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 07:28, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

One disadvantage of getting India forums blacklisted is that we cannot post the link anymore in notices on talk pages as well as in the edit summary! §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 11:11, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

This is expected behaviour which you just need to work around by deliberately breaking the URL (for example, by inserting a space somewhere in it). —Psychonaut (talk) 13:31, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

Yeah! Got it. nowiki would also work. I was surprised on seeing that links arent allowed in summaries too. Thats nice! And glad you are back. See ya around. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 17:29, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! But I'm not back for long—I'll be leaving again in a few days but will be back in January. —Psychonaut (talk) 19:25, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

Unified Code Count (UCC)

The above article has been undeleted as the prod was contested at WP:REFUND. I always inform people when I do so, so that they can decide whether to take to AfD.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 02:04, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

AN thread

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

Not as scary as it sounds, I'm just asking some other admins for their help with a protential slew of deletions. Your name got mentioned, though, so you may want to add your two cents. Yunshui 雲‍水 14:00, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

A beer for you - and an apology...

My profoundest apologies - I had you confused with User:Psychonavigation (who is an adoptee of mine, albeit a seemingly retired one). Ten seconds of clear thinking would have avoided the mistake, but with a small child trying to insinuate a biro into my nasal cavity, those ten seconds didn't happen. Sorry for the mix up, and for any offence unintentionally caused thereby. Yunshui 雲‍水 14:25, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

No offence was taken; you just had me wondering if I'd had some sort of bizarre memory lapse. —Psychonaut (talk) 14:39, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Glad to hear it. You'll notice that you now have a bit more red in your CSD log... Yunshui 雲‍水 14:53, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

The Chainsmokers

Hello sir, happy new year. Well the problem of chainsmokers is quite unfortunate. The article was created when I was new on Wikipedia. I wasn't knowing all the rules then. I had edited out that copyright text and source on the temporary page. Regarding its style, I can't do much for now because I'm on a wikibreak as my exams are near. I'll work thoroughly on that when I'm back. Thank You.—PKS ^(TALK) 18:18, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Can you please advise on what I need to do to rectify this situation in a timely manner? Thank you. 4AMNYC (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:59, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

I have replied on your talk page where you also posted this question. We can continue the conversation there. —Psychonaut (talk) 21:25, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

copyvio

Hi! I can rewrite the text for those articles to remove the copyvio problem. Is that okay?Noodleki (talk) 13:03, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Sure. Just follow the instructions on the template in the section titled "Otherwise, you may write a new article without copyright-infringing material…". —Psychonaut (talk) 13:05, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

international romani union

Hey Psychonaut, I was deeply offended when I saw your post on my talk page suggesting that I (a long time wiki editor) had plagiarized... but then I looked it up, and you are 100% correct. My content was totally stolen. I can't really explain it - I guess it was early in my wiki editing days and I wasn't thinking? I'm not sure. Anyway, thanks for catching it. I'll work on a re-write asap. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 00:30, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

You may not have been aware that you were copying and pasting infringing material. It seems that the material was originally pasted into a different article, World Romani Congress, with this edit by the IP account User:83.26.71.233. You then copied and pasted this text into International Romani Union. So assuming that User:83.26.71.233 wasn't actually you editing while logged out, you weren't really at fault, except perhaps for not noticing that the IP's edit was rather suspicious. (When I see a new user or IP account pasting in a large amount of unformatted text which reads very much like professionally produced website copy, I always run a web search on a sample of it, and almost all of the time it turns out the material was plagiarized.) In the future, if you ever copy and paste text from one article into another, please add a {{copied}} template to the talk pages of the articles in question. This preserves the contributor history in a conspicuous manner and makes it easier to trace copyright infringements which have propagated themselves across several articles. —Psychonaut (talk) 08:31, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

What I have not shared with some of the other admins is that we have worked with the BBC, the Voice of America, and many others which affords us the luxury of being able to reference claims with ease. By the way RTI is not a podcast service, it streams, podcasts and syndicates around the world.

The link between Skillstrain is nothing more than a bias comment, it is easy to understand why many in the media are calling for more online controls, even stronger than the ASA/CAB ones in place now. Train2Game has no connection with Watchdog nor should that be implied, that's bad factual reporting.

I trust you receive this is the spirit it was sent and review comments from other to protect the name of Wikipedia. I still think Wiki has a great roll to play if only it becomes more accurate.

Grossman

If I thought communication would work, I would do it. So you would pretty much have me attempt to get into a conversation with an infrequent user about the fact that a) his behavior shows he doesn't understand policy; or b) that I think his account's been compromised? If I thought that I was going to get a positive or truthful response to either of those items, I would, but given the nature of the attitude shown in the AfD (which was the last real major burst of activity), I think I would get a negative response to the former item, and a non-truthful response if the latter. Even assuming I get a response at all, this user logs in very infrequently, and has never used his talk page. So, in all seriousness, how does communication on my part help the matter, exactly? Anybody looking at the contribs is going to see that he hasn't responded to anything before in years, so why would he start now? One doesn't AGF someone just because.

List of Silent Witness episodes

I'm a bit baffled by the placing of a copyvio notice over several episode summaries for series 13 that I wrote myself as an improvement on the "blurbs" that were already there. If there was a copyvio relating to the previous content, I can't see any reason why the non-copyvio content should have been deleted. Please can you explain? Deb (talk) 22:12, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

I was in the midst of tagging a number of copyvios by the same user, who is now the subject of a proposed WP:CCI case. Though it was clear that he or she had added infringing text to this section, the precise starting and ending points weren't immediately obvious to me. (This will require combing through the page history to determine which particular episode summaries this user has contaminated.) Please accept my apologies if some non-infring text that you had contributed was inadvertenly included within the tag. If you can isolate the infringing areas with finer granularity, by all means please reposition the {{copyvio}} tag accordingly. —Psychonaut (talk) 22:31, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Okay, will try. Deb (talk) 12:46, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

What exactly was copyright issues with the last edit. I rewrote the last entry in my own words. It was not the same as the copyvio flagged content at all. It was simply facts in my words that I know if this rifle. PLEASE EXPLAIN!!!!!!
