Kevin Lustgarten

Hello, I wanted to discuss the speedy deletion on the page that I created yesterday regarding "Kevin Lustgarten" - I am unsure of why this deletion was carried out (given the justification that the subject was not relevant/famous enough), as the page was written about an internet personality with over 400 million video views and features on BBC, Business Insider, etc. Given that this page was written about a minor celebrity, it is my opinion that there was ample grounds for keeping the page up on Wikipedia.

Thank you, and I look forward to hearing back.

If you wish, I can move the article to draft space. I'd spend some time getting better sources for the material (the few there are are largely puff pieces). Then, you can submit it through WP:AFC and users more experienced than you will tell you whether it's good or, if not, why not. Let me know if you want me to move it.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:15, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That would be great, would you do that for me?

Thank you,

 Done Draft:Kevin Lustgarten. Good luck.--Bbb23 (talk) 10:52, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently moves do not edit-conflict with edits

I moved the SPI out from under you while you were putting in the clerk request. I'll file a bug report, since your edit should have edit conflicted and not just saved a broken revision. Cheers! Reaper Eternal (talk) 14:17, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Other sockpuppets at Columbia University?

You recently blocked a sockpuppet editing at Columbia University. Did you have an opportunity to look at other editors who are also editing that article and participating in the Talk page discussions? This article has been absolutely lousy with sockpuppets for quite some time; "new" editors frequently begin engaging in old debates, frequently centered on the exact status of either Barnard or Teachers College. It's rarely obvious enough to meet either a duck test or open an SPI but it looks pretty obvious to me so it's a pretty frustrating situation hence my question about "you just found one sockpuppet editing this article did you see if there are others there, too?" Thanks! ElKevbo (talk) 16:14, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@ElKevbo: I understand the frustration. That article has a tortured history of socking. I didn't see anything else, although I didn't do an exhaustive search.--Bbb23 (talk) 10:54, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for looking into this! ElKevbo (talk) 13:50, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Block evasion by Infinenoi?

I saw that you were involved in the SPI against Infinenoi (talk · contribs). IP 59.189.109.170 (talk · contribs) just began editing in the same pattern as some of Infinenoi’s past socks, e.g. this revert that reintroduced content first introduced by Iowasboon (talk · contribs). Could you take a look? Thanks. — MarkH21 (talk) 10:03, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, this diff makes it obvious (cf. this edit summary). — MarkH21 (talk) 10:13, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Manda Case

Hello, I've left you a msg on Checkuser Wiki.--AldNonUcallin?☎ 17:50, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up. I'll take a look, but I'm not sure when.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:57, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jamie Shupe

I am undoing your edit of Jamie Shupe's page. I know first hand that he disagrees with your characterization of why he now says he's a male. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mathezar (talk • contribs) 01:28, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppetry continuing

Two IP's have started editing after the ("80.134.255.64" and "217.224.67.228") after the blocks that took place as a result of the investigation of Jahmalm.[1] They seem to continue his work of manipulating[2][3]. --Ahmedo Semsurî (talk) 02:12, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps semi-protection of the articles could be a solution? --Ahmedo Semsurî (talk) 02:13, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked the wrong guy

Dude I was the one reporting the legal threat, not making it. Alivardi (talk) 19:32, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I noticed that. No excuse but it was because he was posting on your Talk page instead of on his own and I stayed there and used Twinkle to block. I've now blocked him, and I sincerely apologize for my error.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:36, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No problem buddy. Funniest moment of my day so far, so I'm not complaining too much! Anyways, thanks for responding to and fixing my issue so quickly. Alivardi (talk) 19:42, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your understanding. If you ever have a dull day in the future, let me know and I'll be happy to block and unblock you. --Bbb23 (talk) 19:45, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Haha I look forward to it! Alivardi (talk) 19:50, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Huggums

Just wanted to say that I reluctantly agree that revoking their Talk page access was probably the right call (though I'd be willing to bet they'll try to appeal through other channels). I tried to counsel them that sometimes the best thing they could do to help themselves was to bite the bullet, keep quiet and move on, and it pained me to see that they seemed to feel the need to rise to every occasion. I feel they could be a valuable editor, but not as long as they keep succumbing to their own worst instincts. I hope they'll take everyone's advice to heart now.

Master?

You deleted Nikhil_Chinapa a few weeks ago and it popped back up today but I'm not sure who the master was for the G5...Praxidicae (talk) 20:06, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Heh. The last user to create it was a sock of Abhishek4889 (talk · contribs · count). The new user who created it is a sock of Dimpletisha (talk · contribs · count). What a world. Thanks for the heads up.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:14, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Star Air (India)

Was Star Air (India) undeleted? I thought there was an AFD on the article or one that was close to it and it closed as delete. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 19:03, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

On January 16 of this year you tagged the article for deletion per a7 and g11. On the same day, I deleted the article per a7. Somehow it was recreated, but I can't for the life of me figure out how.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:16, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I had looked at this earlier and figured out that on Feb 27 Sunnya343 moved the article Ghodawat Aviation (a charter airline with ame owners and dubious notability) to Star Air (India) and then essentially rewrote the article. One can quiblle about the process (an AFD/RM would be preferable; also Ghodawat Aviation should arguably redirect to the yet-unwritten article on the parent company), but I think the current article itself is reasonable. Abecedare (talk) 00:25, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Abecedare: Thanks for the help, but (1) there are two edits after my deletion and before the move by two different editors; how can that be? and (2) why doesn't the move show up in the logs of the article?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:47, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Those two edits were to the Ghodawat Aviation page, which now show up in the Star Air article history because of the move. The move itself shows up in the logs of Ghodawat Aviation. Took me a few minutes earlier in the day to figure this out mmyself, so thought I'd save you the time. Abecedare (talk) 00:55, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
A few minutes to figure it out? It took me a few minutes to give up. Thanks again.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:59, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Bbb23, so should we AFD that article? --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 04:21, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Edit: I have already AFD the article again Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Star Air (India) (2nd nomination) --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 04:38, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Block evasion

Hi, User:117.234.14.161 is admitting in their edit summaries that they are User:HardSunBadMoon and User:Chandra Shekher Mishra. Regards, -- Pawnkingthree (talk) 16:15, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Altnews.in

Can I please know why my edit was reverted? Dheerajmpai23 (talk) 22:28, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide reason for the edit reverts. I am not indulging in any disruptive editing. Dheerajmpai23 (talk) 22:41, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I've reverted your edits twice because they are non-neutral and disruptive. If you believe I'm wrong, then go to the article Talk page per WP:BRD. I won't discuss it with you here.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:43, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
