IP user disrupting stable articles once more

Hey Diannaa, remember the anonymous IP user who was caught plagiarizing and violating numerous Wikipedia policies and guidelines? Well, he/she is at it again. I requested a "semi-protection" for the article Snakebite. I will see what other articles he/she is disrupting or vandalising, and I'll let you know. Thanks. --Dendro†NajaTalk to me! 01:29, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Diannaa,

I don't know how closely you have been following the developments at Ronn Torossian. I just wanted to point out to you some posts by User:Judae1 at User_talk:Fred_Bauder#Ronn_Torossian. Judae1, as you may remember, is a senior executive at 5WPR, Torossian's PR firm, but has generally kept hands off that article after being reprimanded for conflict of interest. He has, since then, been a good citizen and has contributed to the pedia on a variety of topics. However, judging by the fractured syntax and sycophantic whining of the posts at Fred Bauder's talk page, the posts were not written by him but by our Janus-faced friend Babasalichai. I am referring not to the first post ("Fred, by merging the pages together"), but the second ("Can you suggest a route for appeal?"), which pretty clearly was written by a different author.

Perhaps you might want to warn Judae1 on the side that letting banned users access his account is a nono. Regards, --Ravpapa (talk) 06:05, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is a concern, but looking at the prose style, I'm not 100% sure that what we're looking at there is Babasalichai having access to the account. (Or even Babasalichai influencing Juda's thoughts on what issues to write about on that page, though that is certainly a possibility.) --Demiurge1000 (talk) 10:29, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The second and third post are not as well written as the first, but I don't see any of the usual tells. -- Diannaa (talk) 12:56, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, maybe it was a false alarm. --Ravpapa (talk) 14:40, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Covenant University

Hello. I noticed that when you were investigating all my edits on wikipedia, your comment on my edit on the article Covenant University was kindoff probable ... probably because you could not find any citation backing up my earlier claims in the controversy section I created. If you could take a look at my edit again here, you will notice that I actually added my citations to the External links section instead of the References section because at that time I did not really know the difference between the two. I guess another Wikipedian noticed my mistake and recreated the criticism section then transferred the links I added, to the References section. I just wanted to clear the air about that because I don't want to be viewed as a Wikipedian that adds libelous contents without citations to Wikipedia. Thanks. Darreg (talk) 11:19, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Darreg. Thank you very much for your work helping to clean up. The reason the item was marked as "probable" is because it appeared to be copyright content as it seemed professionally written. And you can see by the diff that the text has line breaks, which is often a clue that the content has been copied from somewhere. Since the content had already been removed from the article by someone else, it was not necessary for me to hunt for the exact source, so I listed the edit as a probable copy vio. This was not meant to imply that the content was unsourced or that it was added maliciously. -- Diannaa (talk) 14:04, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Alright thanks. I just wanted to clear the air on that to avoid any future block with claims that I have been warned before about adding libelous unsourced content, I am just trying to be proactive as regards my edit history and its not like I am EVER going to add any unverified information.

Help Requested

Hey Dianna, could you take a look at one section of the Peer Review I have going on? User:Hamiltonstone started a PR and after much work, dropped off the radar. At the bottom of the review section I linked, you can see where I responded to him late on the 23rd. After a ping or two and a talk page message, I haven't gotten any responses. The other editors have finished with their PRs (it was a triple PR).

I was wondering if you could give what Hamiltonstone was requesting and my response a look-see and see if I am finished. I am hoping to get this thing to FAC soon. Thanks in advance. - NeutralhomerTalk15:44, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Neutralhomer. Since PR and FA are formal procedures I don't want to do this. I suggest you'd better wait for Hamiltonstone himself to review your work. Sorry, -- Diannaa (talk) 15:49, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Since he has edited a couple times, which means he should have seen the "New Messages" thing at the top, I don't think he is going to come back for review. :S At least anytime soon. - NeutralhomerTalk15:54, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I saw that. I suggest waiting for his response for another week or so, and proceeding with your FA nomination regardless at that point if he doesn't respond. -- Diannaa (talk) 15:58, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I was considering doing that anyway. :) I just didn't want to leave that part of the PR open and unfinished. Though, it looks like I might have to. - NeutralhomerTalk16:02, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I looked at the Peer Review instructions, and it says that you are not obligated to respond to all posts. You did in fact respond extensively; it's not you that's been lax here, so I think you should leave it unfinished if you have to. -- Diannaa (talk) 16:06, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I was under the impression that a PR had to be completely finished before the article could go onto FAC. I learned something there, thanks! :) - NeutralhomerTalk16:07, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Since two of the three PRs on the page are complete, could you close the full PR page for me, please? The PR instructions say I can myself, but it is discouraged. - NeutralhomerTalk16:11, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I will do it once one of these conditions has been met -- Diannaa (talk) 16:18, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I plan on nom'ing it at FAC momentarily. - NeutralhomerTalk16:19, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Nom'd to FAC just seconds ago: Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/WINC (AM)/archive1. - NeutralhomerTalk16:41, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Done. -- Diannaa (talk) 17:00, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Ma'am. Much appreciated. :) - NeutralhomerTalk17:06, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like I put a AFD on a topic that was deleted per afd

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kirk Sommer-which now it seems to be closed or something not sure how to get rid of this-I did put the deletion tag on after it that it was discussed-but yep didn't realize it do that on it. Well at least I now know what happenes when you put an AFD tag on a page that was once deleted! Wgolf (talk) 03:31, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at the deleted version and it was identical to the new version, so it qualified for G4 deletion. I went ahead and did that, plus cleaned up the AFD page for you. Logging off now, see you laters. -- Diannaa (talk) 03:36, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again, Diannaa. Its been a long time since I became inactive. Anyway, can you please keep an eye to the user I linked on the title of this message. I've suspected that this is not the only sock puppet account of Boboy9. I've seen another account and IP addresses, which considers that they're contributing on one article which is DZUR (recently movedthe original to DZUR (defunct) article. I've try to reverting it, but it keeps saying that it has a spam content on it. Please help and thanks again. Hamham31Heke!KushKush! 06:16, 28 April 2014 (UTC) [reply]

Andrewbf has multiple accounts again.

I doubt he has many computers and cell phones that edit warring all day. Most recently account Special:Contributions/Laratadelaciudad. Just want to know his location and ID. 183.171.177.37 (talk) 08:28, 28 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
