EDITS RELATED TO VYAPAM SCAM

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 (talk • contribs) 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

[1] 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:

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.
Mahesh Kumar Jain — About an incumbent deputy governor of the Reserve Bank of India.
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]

Rockallnight5

I don't necessarily see this as a huge deal, but I'm curions about your indef block. It is my understanding that the user is now limiting their edits to a single account. Many of their edits are productive. Their unproductive edits seem to be in good faith at this point. They are self-reverting some of their foolish edits. They seem open to change. Perhaps some discussion or explanation might be called for? Uninvited Company 15:28, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The history of this user clearly shows someone who is a net detriment to the project. Unlike you, I see the conduct as continuing. I can't comment on logged out edits.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:33, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If the block is based on information that you can't disclose publicly, would it not be appropriate to state that either in the block log message or on User talk:Rockallnight5, and possibly also in the noticeboard thread? Uninvited Company 15:42, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Pain in the butt

It took me forever to get the damn decline template right on that page (not helped by being on mobile.) Also add that it substitutes the CU needed template, and it’s even more a pain to decline. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:22, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Referring back to the discussion at WT:SPI that went nowhere, why can't it be fixed???? I think it's the 5th ring of hell that's reserved for templates. Drives me batty.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:25, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed {{checkuser needed}} from {{checkuserblock-account}} and cleaned up the documentation to match the default appeal (public). — JJMC89 (T·C) 06:18, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! You deleted a sandbox page of mine and I would like to contest it

Hello, I'm an SFSU student and I was using User:Ahugebox/sandbox2 to edit my article before moving it to live. Since, I have moved it to live, but the article is not perfect and would like to make all the edits in my sandbox before migrating them over again.

It was deleted for ("duplicate" of article created to promote subject), but I do not think it was. It was being used to hold the reviews from my fellow classmates for my grade.

May I restore my page? I'm sorry to ask, but it would probably be easier for my professor to see everything consolidated in one place, seeing the work only I had done. Thanks in advance!

Ahugebox (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:15, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Ahugebox: Do you know Bulaklak64 (talk · contribs · count)?--Bbb23 (talk) 14:49, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not personally, no. But given their edits, it looks like the subject themselves. I removed their unsourced information. Ahugebox (talk) 22:41, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Great. I restored the sandbox and then removed all the edits by the sock back to the last update by you. Good luck!--Bbb23 (talk) 22:45, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Much appreciated. Ahugebox (talk) 22:51, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Articles about drag queens

Hi there! Sorry to bother you. You judged me on this case of alleged sockpupetry. I'm not as familiarized with Wikipedia in English as I am with Wikipedia em Português, so I wonder if you could help me.

Some articles about drag queens, specially alumni of Rupauls Drag Race (TV Show) will probably see a lot of activity in the coming weeks. A new season just started and some old participants are in the spotlight again. I believe this is the reason a lot of articles are being created/modified right now, and not because of sock/meatpupetry.

At the same time, they are now being attacked by anti-trans/lgbt ips, like this one and this one. Would it be possible to block the edit by IPs for some time to prevent vandalism?

I'm sorry for bothering you, and would appreciate any help or any directing to the correct procedures. Simonecv (talk) 17:02, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
