Hi, I accepted your review as a QPQ because you did a review. Often other editors come by afterwards to question the approval and bring up new issues, and often you will see several editors doing reviews and then being overridden by other editors. Each editor can still claim it as a QPQ because they did a review.

Now, are you asking me to check the review itself, or just its eligibility as a QPQ? Yoninah (talk) 13:05, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well I was asking to check the review itself because I thought it would have an effect on me being able to claim it as a QPQ. Now I know it’s not the case, my request is moot. Thanks!  Bait30  Talk 2 me pls? 16:11, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Specifico

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


Thank you for your messages. But I think I would rather be left alone completely at this point. If you have an issue with an edit, I of course, am happy for anyone to weigh in on the comments for the article page, but please no longer contact me directly under any circumstances. I am not an expert at all of Wikipedia's rules, n so not always sure I am indenting correctly or commenting in the right venue.

That said, I don't wish to get any more messages from you nor your friend SPECIFICO again, except if it relates to an edit and nothing else, and that communication be left on the article's comment page, instead of a DM to me.

I do not mean to disparage anyone, but some of Specifico's behavior has upset me, and I would hope since I don't edit on pages he is normally interested in. I have noticed that he has edited pages he has never edited before, except for the fact that I have contributed or edited that page. And that he then goes to that page for the very firs time to revert everything I have contributed, even though many of my edits are mundane, and despite the fact that I have made thousands of edits, have never had someone act this manner.

As to formally complaining, that is my right and choice, and I don't think it is right that people keep "warning" me not to. That is intimidating.

As to disparagement, it is not a disparagement for someone like myself to say they are concerned about someones behavior towards them. And it is not disparagement to simply quote Wikipedia's own formal findings about SPECIFICO acting inappropriately to other women on more than one occasion. I've reiterated Wikipedia's findings in their bans of SPECIFICO, word for word, exactly what they said, just below. If that is disparagement, maybe he and his friends should take it up with Wikipedia... which they already did, although Wikipedia ruled against him.

This is what Wikipedia's administrators found, THEIR EXACT WORDS: 1. No evidence has been presented that Carol is hounding Specifico. It looks like she wants to disengage from the interactions with Specifico but can't do it because Specifico keeps initiating contact. In the unlikely case that Carol starts hounding or baiting Specifico, the interaction should be extended to her as well. --Sonicyouth86 (talk) 20:46, 12 September 2014 (UTC) "SPECIFICO continues to WikiHound Carolmooredc.

2. Here is the latest example. Carolmooredc has never edited our article on September 11 attacks until now.[79] SPECIFICO has never edited this article before until now.[80] Despite these two editors having never edited this article before, after Carolmooredc makes her first edit on 20:27, September 10, 2014, SPECIFICO show up hours later,12:13, September 11, 2014 to complain about Carolmooredc's edit and then subsequently reverts Carolmooredc's edit.18:13, September 11, 2014. At this point, like the others I simply want to go about my business without being molested further.Cathradgenations (talk) 00:28, 17 September 2020 (UTC)

Please do not contact me again, and please do not have SPECIFICO bother me again. If someone disagrees with an edit, they can always post on the comments page of the article. In that I don't edit on pages SPECIFICO does, I would hope he stops bothering me. He has edited numerous pages for the very first time ever-- only after I have edited them. That is the same type of behavior that Wikipedia formally concluded that in the past he continued towards another woman even though the administrators concluded "she wants to disengage from... Speicifco" and that only "Specifico keeps initiating contact."

Again, if either you or him continue to bother me I will formally complain. Leave me alone now, all is good. There the matter rests. Please, no more messages from Specifico or anyone associated with him. And not indenting properly or signing right is not a reason that you can ban someone from Wikipedia. Threats like that are inappropriate as well.Cathradgenations (talk) 03:36, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your controversial keep for "Stepanakert pogrom"

Sorry, I have objections to your closing of Afd and I disagree with the text you left (pogrom doesn't pass WP:GNG, if you look at articles talk, you will see it's just a delusion). You couldn't find even 2-3 RS's calling it a "pogrom". Per WP:NACD, "Close calls and controversial decisions are better left to admins". Please, could you revert your closure and wait for an admin's closure? Thanx. GevHev4 (talk) 18:36, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but I don't believe that it was either close or controversial. 7 keep !votes to 2 !delete votes. I'm not sure what you mean by delusion. As to calling it a pogrom, you're right, I shouldn't have called it that considering that most editors agreed that pogrom isn't the best term.  Bait30  Talk 2 me pls? 19:16, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Let's agree that you have very limited information on the topic and just doing mathematical comparison between 2 to 7. I'm not sure it's a good reason for closure. So please, revert your closure. If you're interested in topic, you could find more about the problems of naming and RS's here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Stepanakert_pogrom .
