Has there been a consensus somewhere that the list of syndicated programs carried by a television station is limited to no more than five? Thank you. JTRH (talk) 00:33, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A limit of four-five shows is fine so that it can not run afoul of WP:NOTTVGUIDE. It was reached two years ago. It must be a valid sourced. I wonder if TV Listings are valid sources? ACMEWikiNet (talk) 01:34, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I get the NOTTVGUIDE. I think it's generally trivia to list it at all, unless it has some relevance to the station's history or ratings position (like the number of stations whose 5 PM newscast led the market for more than 20 years because Oprah was their lead-in). I was just wondering how and when the number was agreed on. If it's listed on the station's Website, it's a reliable source. JTRH (talk) 01:37, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm Lovkal. I noticed that you recently removed some content from KABC-TV without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

You need to back away from the situation

While you reverted this, the fact that you posted it, along with the incoherence of your message on my talk page, indicates that you are too emotionally compromised to properly handle this matter. You are not seeing the other user as a new user who needs their mistakes explained to them, you are out for blood.

If I went after you the same way you treated him (combined with the experience I have here), you'd probably be blocked by now or at least given an IBAN. That's not a threat, that's just a comparison.

If Gatorsfan25 is seriously a problem, you're not going to be the only user to report him.

When you have a problem with a user, remember that they are human and they might not know what you're doing (just like you really don't know what you're doing at WP:ANI or WP:SPI). When you make accusations, you need to start from the perspective that you might be completely wrong and compile evidence so that someone who is completely unfamiliar with the case but assumes that you are wrong will have to agree. Presenting no diffs, as you originally did at ANI, is (at best) a waste of everyone's time. At worst, it is a common tactic used by trolls against users in good standing. Presenting a list of diffs with no context, as you did at ANI and SPI, comes off as telling others "do my work for me" (unless you're assuming we're telepathic).

I'm certain that you can do better -- later. Right now, you need to find something else (whether it's something else on this site or something off of this site).

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Fox NFL a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. I have reverted your edits please discuss on the talk page. You need a source about your "legally still called" claims. oknazevad (talk) 21:19, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Cash Explosion, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Do not add unsourced content to articles. You have been blocked multiple times for edit warring and sock puppetry. Please stop your disruptive editing. [1] AldezD (talk) 13:21, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Cash Explosion, you may be blocked from editing. Please stop disruptive editing. Wikipedia is not a forum and as an editor with a long history you are aware of WP:V and WP:CS. AldezD (talk) 12:53, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at User talk:AldezD, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. [2], [3] AldezD (talk) 13:10, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked for sockpuppetry

July 2017

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at WP:RPP, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 02:23, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

November 2017

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at KABC-TV. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Zapera (Talk/Contributions) 11:37, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It said on Adweek.com that NBC Sports will debut a new graphics package for the super bowl. It is a Little more than 2 Weeks to Super Bowl LII. And it is not Crystalballish. 68.102.39.189 (talk) 14:55, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked for sockpuppetry

Unblock Request

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

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

Request reason:

Csworldwide2 and TheCopyrightMachine are unrelated to me. I only edit pages on a sparrigly basis nowadays. I did not made the edits, nor IUP-TV. So I am most likely innocent. Those users are from the same server as either my Provider or I am not very happy about this block. So me and Csworldwide 2 are two separate editors. ACMEDeputy (talk) 16:37, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

They are not unrelated to you. Instead, they are confirmed as related to you. Yamla (talk) 16:58, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

No they are NOT!!! Show me the evidence please. I DID NOT made the IUP-TV page, Csworldwide 2 did. Those user accounts are 99.9% unrelated to me. Show me the edits that I did and those accounts please. I did NOT made those accounts. Someone else did. They must be sharing the same IP as my apartment building. ACMEDeputy (talk) 1:00 pm, Today (UTC−4)

Decline reason:

So the accounts are 0.1% related? Ian.thomson (talk) 18:36, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ACMEDeputy/Archive. --Yamla (talk) 17:14, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@User:Yamla: Appears to me that compared to my edits to Csworldwide2 and this troublemaker TheCopyrightMachine, my edits are good faith. I stopped edit TV station years ago and edited articles on a sheldom basis. So, I did not made those accounts. I am not a sockpuppet master of Csworldwide2 nor TheCopyrightMachine. Like I said they are two completly different users. I apologize to whoever who blocked me and I continue to make good edits. I would continue to make good faith articles. ACMEDeputy (talk) 17:25, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
A checkuser found that the technical data for your account matched the technical data for Csworldwide2 and TheCopyrightMachine. There will be even more to compare it with once a CU checks out Csworldwide1. It's also a pretty big coincidence that someone who has engaged in sockpuppetry before just happens to have a neighbor who edits in a similar manner. Ian.thomson (talk) 18:35, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Could you elaborate on the edits made by TheCopyrightMachine? Please, be expansive.-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 18:45, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Dlohcierekim: Did you mean me or ACMEDeputy? Ian.thomson (talk) 18:47, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, no. ACMEDeputy. I'd like to hear more about it.-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 18:48, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Dlohcierekim: This particular edit [1] that TheCopyrightMachine did was really offensive to a Wikipedia user or a moderator. He not only swore at Rusf10, he copied and pasted the information that was from the student manual of Indiana University of Pennsylvania's TV Manual. That is a huge "no-no" when making a Wikipedia article. That constitutes copyright infringement and we can all get sued for copyright. I don't usually create new articles often I always check for reliable sources when adding something to the article. Just like when you are in school doing an essay, if you copy and paste an essay word for word from an owner's manual it's a big plagiarism.

In addition to this edit [2] he also added AT&T SportsNet Pittsburgh. Most cable systems in the markets outside of Pittsburgh (such as Johnstown-Altoona, Harrisburg, or Erie) carry AT&T SportsNet Pittsburgh. Can this be included in the television market templates of Johnstown-Altoona, Steubenville-Wheeling, Youngstown, and Hagerstown despite they are near the Pittsburgh market?

Earlier today, he attempted to hack into my account using the "Password Forget" feature. I was going "Is he gonna hack into my account?" This is after I got the e-mail stating my account is blocked from editing.

Meanwhile, Csworldwide2 impersonated User:Csworldwide1. Csworldwide2's edits follow the same behavior pattern as Csworldwide1. Thank you very much for blocking, Csworldwide2. 20:08, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also, after reading the bottom of the sock-puppet report, Csworldwide2 and I both have very different behavioral patterns. ACMEDeputy (talk) 20:23, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
