The current date and time is 9 June 2024 T 08:52 UTC. You can email me from this link but in the interests of Wiki-transparency, please message me on this page unless there are pressing reasons to do otherwise. Comments which I find to be uncivil, full of vulgarities, flame baiting, or that are excessively rude may be deleted without response. If I choose not to answer, that's my right; don't keep putting it back. I'll just delete and get annoyed at you.
This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated. |
Welcome to my talk page! I am an administrator here on Wikipedia. That means I am here to help. It does not mean that I have any special status or something, it just means that I get to push a few extra buttons to help maintain this encyclopedia.

First, please remember that I am not trying to attack you, demean you, or hurt you in any way. I am only trying to protect the integrity of this project. If I did something wrong, let me know, but remember that I am human, and I do make mistakes. Please keep your comments civil. If you vandalize this page or swear at me, you will not only decrease the likelihood of a response, your edits could get you blocked. (see WP:NPA) When posting, do not assume I know which article you are talking about. If you leave a message saying "Why did you revert me?", I will not know what you mean. If you want a response consisting of something other than "What are you talking about", please include links and, if possible, diffs in your message. At the very least, mention the name of the article or user you are concerned with. If you are blocked from editing, you cannot post here, but your talk page is most likely open for you to edit. To request a review of your block, add Administrators: If you see me do something that you think is wrong, I will not consider it wheel-warring if you undo my actions. I would, however, appreciate it if you let me know what I did wrong, so that I can avoid doing it in the future. |

Copyright Claim
Hello editor you tagged me for copyright violation - very sorry about that, I certainly had no intentions of violating anything - before I was able to look at it, however, the note was gone. Im curious what it is I did wrong so that I may not do it again. Everything I write I write myself, I don't plagiariase anything, so I'm thinking it must have been a photo? I uploaded a photo of a company under the assumption that educational use for purposes like this is permitted, but I can understand if thst is the issue. Let me know.

June 14, 2019 - very much appreciated your explanation, many thanks, and sorry about that. The poem should not be in copyright as more than 20 years have passed, but perhaps this is the case only in Canada. Best to you. Canlawtictoc (talk) 23:20, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Canlawtictoc: sorry, I meant to get back to you. See Wikipedia:Non-U.S. copyrights, and if you can't make sense of that ask on the talk page. Doug Weller talk 16:00, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
You originally blocked this user on the basis of 'not being here to build an encyclopedia' then unblocked. I've had to make a whole much of reverts and respond (as have other editors) to obscure and esoterica talk page requests. It is possible that I'm being unfair - is there any chance you would be prepared to take a look? -----Snowded TALK 10:40, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
- Snowded you seem a bit protective of philosophy article updates in these changing modern times...good luck and thanksArnlodg (talk) 15:41, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
A few leftover Consensus Required sanctions
Hi Doug, you may remember my December 2018 proposal to replace the "Consensus Required" sanction with the BRD sanction. [1] The proposal ended up being mostly moot because of the change in rules that you proposed to ArbCom, and I took it upon myself to remove the CR sanction from all the articles that User:Coffee had added it to, replacing the sanction at most of those articles with the BRD sanction. The WP:AN thread itself went to archive without a close, though I don't think there would have been a strong enough consensus to override discretionary sanctions placed by multiple admins. Anyway I've come across 5 articles that still have a Consensus Required sanction placed by you, and I was wondering if you would be open to modifying or removing that sanction. The articles are:
- David Malpass
- Executive Order 13768
- Myron Ebell
- National Policy Institute
- Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement
If you want to make a change but are too busy to fiddle with the templates I can do it on your behalf with your permission. ~Awilley (talk) 03:04, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Awilley: please do, but please don't add BRD. I really don't like it, perhaps because when editing fringe articles it just doesn't work, ditto sometimes BLPs. Doug Weller talk 18:56, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

Debate: Was Dua Lipa Really a Fashion Model?
You might have VERY little familiarity with her music/recordings during breaks, but in case you get confused subject is a British singer/songwriter of Albanian descent known for her contralto voice and such songs as New Rules, Be the One, IDGAC (which is an acronym for I don't give a crap since original title ends with a four letter expletive), One Kiss with Calvin Harris, etc...
And to clarify was she really a model to the likes of the Kardashian sisters before becoming the aforementioned profession? Had done this to her talk page about ethnicity being included in the lead which isn't allowed.
For the 411 I'm trying my best not to joke around here Monsieur Weller but some male expansion artist from the same country painted a picture of Dib Membrane and his Canadian James Isaac Neutron-looking counterpart getting blown up with crimson red aid pumps by their enemies a certain green Irken and some lavender feline-type of monstrosity. And it was made on her 20 birthday! See for yourself and please reply. [1]
Au revoir,

Need a favor
Hi Doug--need a quick favor from an admin. Can you please move User:Loop of Jade to User:Watsherm/Loop of Jade, deleting the previous version? The student moved it incorrectly, and we need to preserve the history. Thank you so much! Dr Aaij (talk) 14:54, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

The Master's Seminary
Dear Doug, the current info on The Master's Semiary wikipedia page is significantly outdated (and largely inaccurate) and needs to be updated. My attempts earlier today to remove outdated information were reverted. With your permission, I would like to make a second attempt at updating this wikipedia entry. Regarding the probation status for The Master's Seminary, it is not inaccurate to state that the institution is currently accredited by WASC, since institutions remain fully accredited even during the probation process. Thank you, in advance, for your consideration.
