Administrator's noticeboard discussion re: List of bitcoin forks

Hi, I noticed you closed the discussion I posted on the administrator's noticeboard, saying that content disputes aren't handled there. I had previously attempted to request dispute resolution on the Dispute resolution noticeboard, however it was closed there by someone saying "DRN does not handle cases which are about conduct" and recommended that I "file a complaint at ANI".

So what would you advise I do? DRN doesn't handle conduct dispute, and you're saying ANI doesn't handle content disputes. So what do I do in a situation that's about both? Fresheneesz (talk) 01:34, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I advise you to drop the whole thing. First, every editor disagreed with you. Second, there have been no comments on the Talk page since December 3. You don't appear to have consensus for what you want, so move on to something else. If you refuse to give up, you should go back to DRN and refile, as was suggested, avoiding all the comments about other editors, their motives, etc., and just put forth the nature of the dispute. Finally, I'm not going to mediate this dispute, so don't think of carrying on a quasi-mediation discussion on my Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:13, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"don't think of carrying on a quasi-mediation discussion on my Talk page"
You really could use a less crotchety tone. You don't know me. Why assume I'm gonna do some stupid BS? How about you assume a little good faith? Fresheneesz (talk) 04:33, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

115.135.130.182

Hi Bbb23. I don't know how to deal with this, but this IP 115.135.130.182 seems identical with banned User:Rameezraja001. He is again filling Talk Pages with nonsense and vulgarity (Edit summaries "Greek himation fallacy", "Hellenistic realism is BS"), and is starting to damage several articles. Can something be done? पाटलिपुत्र (talk) 04:36, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You can try reporting the IP to Bishonen who blocked the named user to see if she agrees with you. The other option is to file a report at WP:SPI with the named user as the master and the IP listed as a suspected sock.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:04, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I took a look, but I don't think their style is that similar, nor their interests. It could be a sock, but I don't think it's an obvious sock. Bishonen | talk 16:09, 9 December 2018 (UTC).[reply]
Thank you!! पाटलिपुत्र (talk) 17:42, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your advice on TLA and harrassment

Reference Shenphen Rinpoche on which you kindly assisted a few months ago when I was unfairly accused of using a sockpuppet by the subject or his lawyer, and I was blocked and then unblocked by yourself. A newly registered editor has now posted promotional material sourced on a promotional piece written in the first person and published by the subject's personal organisation here, asserting that it was from a "neutral" source, so I reverted it. The new editor reinstated it today with the following summary: "(Undid revision 872358814 by MacPraughan Revert was biased, because info was factual, neutral and from neutral source. And given MacPraughan's previous attacks against the subject, and the court case started in France against him for slander in this matter, I don't think he should have any right to come close to this page ever again!)"

Thus far I know nothing about any court case pending against me in France (where I live) for slandering the subject (in this article) but knowing the subject's background as a security expert of some sort, with connections, I do not take this lightly. I therefore hesitate to get into an edit war with this editor and seek your advice. For the moment I have let this edit stand. What do you think I should do? Please advise. Thanks.MacPraughan (talk) 15:40, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've blocked the account as a sock and reverted their edit.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:12, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please restore the article. If there is any sourcing on the current patent, then the sequence will be valid. That I what I said at AfD. Just because someone has a problem with the previous article creator doesn't mean the article itself is not valid. Trackinfo (talk) 21:41, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"If there is any sourcing on the current patent, then the sequence will be valid." I have no idea what that means. "Just because someone has a problem with the previous article creator doesn't mean the article itself is not valid." That's a quaint way of referring to a LTA sock.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:45, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't care about LTA (or TLA) sock. Just restore the article to my sandbox, as would be proper per my request. I will deal with cleaning up the article and restoring it. Trackinfo (talk) 21:54, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't respond well to attitude. I'm sure you can find someone else to restore it for you.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:00, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I've got plenty of attitude when necessary. This is not attitude. Your refusal to restore following normal procedure is a bad attitude on your part. I simply disagreed with your removal of content, whatever your grounds. I am not a party to LTA TLA whatever sock. Don't know about it and don't care. I am not a blocked editor so I will properly restore the content under my signature. Content is what I am concerned about. You are now making me go around you to ask for its restoration. Trackinfo (talk) 22:08, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Trackinfo: For the record, "LTA" is not a good thing, as it generally means the editor isn't just indefinitely blocked but banned outright, in which case it's policy to revert and/or remove anything they contribute in defiance of their ban. I share Bbb23's mysticism about the "[...]current patent[...]" line in your argument, though I suspect this is autocorrect playing silly buggers, given the subject in question is a beauty pageant. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Bori! 01:46, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't even notice the autocorrect typo. The word is "pageant." As Bbb23 was bandying around slang terms like TLA or LTA and sock, I figured it was another slang. As I said, I don't know and don't care about the originator of the content, I think the content belongs here. Since there is a succession of Merge/AfD discussions trying to destroy this particular content, I am being aggressive in trying to retain it. That is what I do. We have had years of other editors trying to demolish ALL content related to beauty pageants. Its not even my subject, I'm just playing a hero defender for them so they don't get trampled. Using G5 seemed like a (yet another) sneaky back door to evade a defensible procedure to keep the content alive. Trackinfo (talk) 03:26, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Trackinfo, the article was deleted under WP:G5. Your coming here making aggressive demands, particularly with language that makes no sense, is not going to accomplish anything except alienating everyone who reads this thread. If it's not even your subject, then drop it. There was no "Miss Multinational 2017"; the first Miss Multinational was 2018 [1]. -- Softlavender (talk) 04:04, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Bbb23 please help me understand the reasons to rollback my edits to the below page? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vyapam_scam#Deaths Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saurabhbhardiya (talkcontribs) 14:55, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We don't keep those kinds of lists in Wikipedia articles; they aren't noteworthy (doesn't matter if they're sourced, although unsourced is worse).--Bbb23 (talk) 15:37, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

MariaJaydHicky sock

[2] Thought I'd come to you since last time, when I posted it on Ad Orientem's page, you took care of it. Proof: Editing genres on Mariah Carey and Meghan Trainor related articles, arranging them in alphabetical order. Also note that one of MJH's prior socks was called IPhoneKid.--NØ 16:35, 12 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Indeffed. Bbb23 is on a short break. -Ad Orientem (talk) 21:39, 12 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for taking care of it.--NØ 08:35, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

IP address suspected as as a sock puppet

Hii Bbb23.. Based on the edited history performed by this IP: 36.79.238.67, I suspect the IP as a sock puppet of Deanarthurl. I hope you can check it again.. Thank you Stvbastian (talk) 12:29, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mass deletion of pages

Hi Bbb23! You recently deleted a good-ton of pages created by Lukachupi, a sockpuppet of Bangrubhai, under the G5 criterion of speedy deletion. My views about the aforementioned criterion notwithstanding, I think that it was a good decision, however, I went through his or her creations and I am of the opinion that certain pages created by him or her were definitely about notable subjects, namely:

  1. Pratyush Sinha — About an Indian Administrative Service officer (career civil servant), who served as Chief Vigilance Commissioner and as a secretary to the Government of India.
  2. Mahesh Kumar Jain — About an incumbent deputy governor of the Reserve Bank of India.
  3. Yogesh Kumar Tyagi — A vice-chancellor of the University of Delhi.

Now would you be so kind as to reinstate these pages? Regards, SshibumXZ (talk · contribs). 17:31, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Done --Bbb23 (talk) 18:13, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:DCsghost

Hello, a note at WP:AN showed me that you closed off talk-page access while there was an outstanding unblock request. Did you intend to close access while leaving the unblock request? No objections, just curious. Nyttend (talk) 00:01, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

PS, if you decide to make a reply, please make it at WP:AN#DCsghost‎, not here — I'm shortly to be getting on a bus, and I won't likely have Internet access until tomorrow afternoon my time (it's 7PM here). Nobody's objecting at WP:AN, so don't feel like anyone's challenging you. Nyttend (talk) 00:07, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jaiden animations

In looking at this new creation, Jaiden animations, I spotted that it was a recreation of Jaiden Animations. Special:WhatLinksHere/Jaiden Animations shows Mylodana a sock of Lapitavenator (talk · contribs). While this makes me suspicious of continuing sockpuppetry, I note you ran a CU on 27 Nov. Am I right in assuming this would exonerate the other creators/editors at that date? Thanks, Cabayi (talk) 11:59, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The answer to the CU question is complicated. Putting that aside, other than the one-article connection, I don't see anything else about Jhillardai that would lead me to believe that they are a sock of Lapitavenator. Their editing pattern is unusual, as is the recreation of that page, but that's it.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:56, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
On a single user basis, I'd agree. As part of a stream of users trying to recreate the article under various titles (Jhillardai being the 7th), it starts to look a bit concerted, and perhaps coordinated. It just gives me an itchy feeling - thanks for scratching. :-) Cabayi (talk) 13:08, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Heh. Thanks for the early morning smile.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:13, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Arbcom

"The stats are rather wierd on analysis - 2&3 on supports fail, only 1 person got over 50% support votes, 2-6 on neutrals succeed." You really don't understand that? Happy to explain if that's the case. Johnbod (talk) 05:51, 15 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

Explain why you did this please. [3]
