User talk:HighInBC/Header

I left a note for you at AN. While blocking Harikw is no great loss for Wikipedia, IMO, you should do a checkuser if you are going for an indef. I have some (not so good) experience with Harikw from more than a year back and have seen Srikris a lot recently. They don't have much in common except that they edited the same article. Tintin (talk) 04:39, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Since I am not completely sure I have unblocked the user and apologized. Thanks for the info. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 05:52, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Randy, thanks for unblocking me. Tintin1107, Please let me know the bad experience you had from me. I never had a dispute with you or we never contacted ever on wikipedia. Also, please refrain from underestimating someone by saying that blocking a user is not a loss for wikipedia, coz wikipedia is a collborative environment and each and everyone is important. I have no idea who Srikris is or what he is doing. if you can prove by any chance that I am the same person, I am ready to close the account and stop the wikipedia usage. The only article I edited again and again(reverted back to an old version) was bcoz a user was forcibly taking off an image of a very important artist from the carnatic music page. I understand that I should had this discussed over the discussion page before doing frequent reverts. other than that I have not acted against wikipedia policies. couple times I tried to upload images and I got warnings because of copyright information. This was either because I selected the wrong copyright information or because I was unaware of the wikipedia policies on fair usage. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Harikw (talkcontribs) 15:22, 17 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]
No problem, sorry about the hassle, I am still not sure but that is okay. Also, my name isn't Randy hehe. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 16:16, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake reporting BloodOnADagger (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) - sorry about that! --SunStar Nettalk 12:33, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, not a problem, that is why we have an RFC for usernames, for when it is not clear cut. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 16:16, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Srkris's block

Hey, I think you may have been just what your name implies when you blocked Srkris recently [1] ;) If I was wrong in fixing it, let me know. --Mr. Lefty (talk) 16:30, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I already realized my block was in error and I attempted to undo my extension to the block. Was specifying a specific moment like December 24 2006 15:49 not the correct way to give a specific ending point? It seems that a 7 day block should be about the same as December 24 2006 15:49, I read up on the time module's syntax and that should be valid, not sure. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 16:34, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Lol, I see what I did, wrong textboxes hehe... no I wasn't high, I wish, I just woke up. It really should have given me an error. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 16:36, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have to dispute your claim of "no outside sources, questionable notability" on this AfD. Number one, there are outside sources listed under references. In particular, he was one of the subjects of RE/Search magazine special edition on Modern Pagans: an Investigation of Contemporary Ritual (Re/Search) by V. Vale & John Sulak. This is a litmus test for notablity in the neopagan community. Most of the other interviewees have articles on Wikipedia. Notability is not an issue, regardless of what other issues there may be. This is not to belittle the problem of his posting the article himself, but if someone else had written it, there would be no question in my mind that it should be kept. Pagan typically avoid usual local newpaper and other media coverage, as it can lead to harassment in primarily Christian neighborhoods, especially if they have children in school. But RE/Search doesn't write articles on people they don't think are notable in some way. Ekajati (yakity-yak) 17:21, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The whole point of the AfD is to talk about it there, I disagree that this constitutes notability, and another I nominated it was because it was written by the subject. If you have note already make these points in the AfD. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 17:33, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP:3O

I provided a third opinion. Do not ever remove a valid dispute again. I provide third opinions often and there is nothing on the page that merits removing disputes just because you disagree with the editor. KazakhPol 19:28, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have already explained my reasoning on the talk page, please abide by the instructions when using third opinion. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 19:29, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I see you have removed that discussion from your talk page, this does not change the fact that you need to follow the rules. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 19:31, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's funny. I wasnt aware you were allowed to make up the rules as you go along. I'll keep that in mind in the future. KazakhPol 19:32, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They are clearly posted at WP:3O, so I am not sure what you mean when you say make up the rules as you go along. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 19:33, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd appreciate it if you not edit other users' comments on my talkpage, however much you would like to, as you did here [2]. Thanks, KazakhPol 19:44, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is nothing wrong with fixing an incorrectly formatted link. The fact that is was on your talk page is irrelevant. Don't worry about it. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 19:46, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I think it is better to stay civil in disputes, if for no other reason than others who are not familiar with a dispute will take a civil person more seriously. Watching some of the 3O disputes is a good lesson in this—there are people who are probably right yet cannot behave civilly, and it makes it more difficult to take their side.

Yay!

Thank you thank you thank you thank you! You're the best. Does your name let on what I'm pretty sure I think it does? I've always wanted to relax in BC with some BigBud/Blueberry AC 15:50, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yes it does, it of course refers to my enjoyment of hiking in the mountains and valleys of BC! As for BigBud/Blueberry, I like that too. Let me know if you need any help, I will come by your talk page and give you some info on editing. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 15:52, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tsukatu

My page, "we've always been at war with Eurasia," was marked for deletion. I made a statement about it on its talk page. You deleted it without responding to my input. Can I at least get a response, so I know why my page was deleted? Please email me at tsukatu@gmail.com. Thank you.
