Before leaving a comment

Before leaving a comment realize I will remove any pointless, childish, or silly accusations made against myself, or other editors. This page is not a place to stroke your ego, point fingers, or extend your battleground to. Examples of items that will be removed are:

  1. Comments the summarize to the basis the world revolves around you. I do not have time to listen to other editors stroking their ego, insisting I participate in this project just for them. You are not the sun, stop acting like you are even important.
  2. Accusations you do not even care to defend, such as with difs. Baseless accusations of me killing your cat or deflating your tires will obviously be removed.
  3. Accusations of sockpuppetry. Feel free to file RFCU after RFCU. I am not a prior edit, oddly I was drawn here by an article in the newspaper regarding the screwed up situation here. Who would have thought it was worse then described. For those who honestly think wiki-markup is difficult, most people who have any training in coding get the ''' for bolding and *gasps* <ref> for citing references. Especially since they are included in every article on here.
  4. SPA accusations. My interest is in Latin America History, as such much of my contributions will be on topics related to Cuba and Colombia as well as the atrocities that occured there. It is called being focused.
  5. Any and all attacks, again, be a child in your living room or an AOL chat, neither of which is here.

If you have something useful to contribute feel free to post, if not, there is always the village pump.

Request reason:

Per the discussion on Arbitration Enforcement, the issue is to be brought to an Arbcom hearing. This is obviously because noone could state anything I did wrong.[14] --SevenOfDiamonds 22:43, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Decline reason:

See below. - auburnpilot talk 23:44, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Arbcom enforcement based on evidence here--MONGO 22:45, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Which was rejected. The dif I provided above covers the issue. If MONGO petitioned off wiki for the block, he should have notified the person of the Arbcom Enforcement notice to take it to Arbitration. --SevenOfDiamonds 22:47, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing on-wiki (apart from evidences shown at the AN/I) and nothing off-wiki. The thing is that block evasions of already blocked indef accounts = indef block. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up® 22:50, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Per the discussion I am not evading a block because I am not Nuclear, this issue was settled, for you to subvert the process so MONGO can avoid going to Arbcom is out of line. As noted the decision from the discussion was no consensus for action. --SevenOfDiamonds 22:52, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Most responders who looked at the evidence agreed that it is very strong. The minority who challenged this didn't deny that, but changed the subject to MONGO or made generic comments about witchhunts and uncertainty.Proabivouac 23:03, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever your personal understanding of the situation is, the point in total was the decision was closed. For you to forumshop on AN/I and not mention the Arbcom Enforcement page was an attempt to circumvent the process. As noted by the clerk who closed the incident, there was no consensus among the admins who participated in the discussion. --SevenOfDiamonds 23:06, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

After a deep thought and having a look at the ArbEnfor i'd advise you to go through a real ArbCom case. Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Arbitration enforcement is something semi-official but evidences provided above are clear to me. The ArbCom would be the entity which will decide and not me. So what would be your choice? A real ban or editing freely if you are really innocent as you claim? -- FayssalF - Wiki me up® 23:22, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I want you to unblock me, if MONGO wants to pursue some vendetta from a AfD going bad and a RfA then he can take it to Arbcom as he was told to by the Arbcom clerk. --SevenOfDiamonds 23:24, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
See this post,[13] which SOD keeps removing, for how he's distorting these comments. The issue of arbitration enforcement and indefinite block are two seperate things. You're evading your block even if there had been no ArbCom case.Proabivouac 23:27, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Two admins are noted as saying the evidence was not all there, one specifically stating I was obviously being followed. Thatcher addressed the issue themselves: [14] You bringing it to AN/I without showing a decision was already made is dishonest. So either you failed to read, or just ignored what the clerk stated. --SevenOfDiamonds 23:29, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see blatant evidence but why not take advantage of real justice. We have the ArbCom as the last resort. In complicated issues such as this one, i trust the ArbCom more than i trust my own judgment as an admin. Thatcher closed it as "no consensus" and i'd not like to be a dictator even if we got evidences. Let the "supreme court" say its word. Live long the ArbCom. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up® 23:33, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes let them, remove my block as requested, one that you circumvented another admins decision, the Arbcom clerk to be exact, and let MONGO bring it to Arbcom as the clerk stated. --SevenOfDiamonds 23:35, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It is telling me I am still autoblocked by FayssalF --SevenOfDiamonds 23:40, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Try now. - auburnpilot talk 23:44, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That did work. Thank you. --SevenOfDiamonds 23:45, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
He has the case prepared anyway. It's up to him. If this mess won't stop i'd open the case myself. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up® 23:49, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
There is no mess other then his constant harassment. We do not even edit the same article anymore and he is still pursuing me. I hope it does go to Arbcom, it will expose all the times he has called me a sockpuppet and other nasty names, as well as the 5 RFCU's opened by his friends apparently one based off of his information. I am sure plenty of other editors would like to chime in on both of our conduct. Arbcom can fully explore all of MONGO's actions, and civility on Wikipedia, and mine. MONGO placing himself in an Arbcom hearing, so RfC can be skipped, would benefit the community I believe. --SevenOfDiamonds 23:55, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As i said SoD. I trust the ArbCom more than my own judgments. I've seen the evidence, some other say no, some say maybe. There was no consensus and apologize if i was quick to block you w/o reading the whole thread in depth. The ArbCom would decide on your fate. Whether you are innocent (not evading block, not trolling) or he is innocent (not harassing and being uncivil to you). Good luck for innocent people. That what i can say.
The mess i was referring to is the fact that your cases are brought to the AN/I so often. That's disruptive. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up® 00:18, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, it is quite disruptive to my editing the actions of a certain few. I also do not remember having many of my own cases, and in the last one the general tone seemed to be that fishing was bad, and someone needed to be more civil. I appreciate your apology, but I do not think you did anything wrong, since you were not notified on the AN/I page of the previous decision by the Arbcom clerk. --SevenOfDiamonds 00:27, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Arbitration consideration

Georgie says, "Stay the course also means don’t leave before the job is done."

As you are patently the victim of both WP:STALK and WP:HARASS from multiple editors including MONGO, Tbeatty, Proabivouc, Morton Devonshire, and others, it may be in your own best interests to pursue arbitration against all of them directly. Given that they have harassed you in a continuous fashion for nearly a month, you have demonstrated deep patience and calm in this troublesome situation. That you have not lashed out at even one of them is a testament to your personal strength, moral fibre, and ethical compass. Please consider it, for your own safety and protection? It is the responsibility of every single Wikipedia administrator to defend and protect all other users on this website. According to this,

Combatting harassment
2) Any user, including an administrator using administrative powers, may remove or otherwise defeat attempts at harassment of a user. This includes harassment directed at the user themselves.
Pass 6-0 at 02:08, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Please.

Stay the course.

Don't leave before the job is done.

As this encyclopedia is a product of love, that eternally grows, it will never end.

Therefore, you should never leave. Admins are expected to protect you from this level of harassment. Please be aware of that, and edit safely. Be well, and good luck with your future.

Cheers, and love, 85.214.122.80 23:59, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I actually like Bush, though he just sounds uneducated sometimes. I think invading Afghanistan and Iraq was the way to go. While Iraq was not connected, it certaintly was not the best situation for the people there. Why does the United States have to the the world police? From now on I will remove attacks, thank you for pointing that out to me. --SevenOfDiamonds 00:03, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the arbcom proceedings for this? ViridaeTalk 01:18, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that there would be a point. ArbCom has a history of giving free passes to patently abusive editors on the basis of their mainspace contributions. 81.153.125.209 16:40, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Case started

I've started an Arbcom case on you here. Hopefully we can get this matter settled once and for all. Please go to the arbcom page and make a statement to give your side of the story. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 16:59, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

An Arbitration case involving you has been opened: Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/SevenOfDiamonds. Please add any evidence you may wish the Arbitrators to consider to the evidence sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/SevenOfDiamonds/Evidence. You may also contribute to the case on the workshop sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/SevenOfDiamonds/Workshop.

On behalf of the Arbitration Committee, Picaroon (t) 22:18, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've posted the links to your two evidence subpages on the above-linked evidence page. I would appreciate it if you at least try to shorten the /Arbcom one, even if not to 1000 words. Picaroon (t) 00:34, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have done some analysis of the spelling errors as I think too much significance is placed on common errors - the results are in User:SOPHIA/analysis if you are interested. Sophia 14:34, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have used it in my evidence. Thank you. I also pointed out the dismissal of it as further indication of confirmation bias. I appreciate the work you did. I do not have the same fancy tools MONGO seems to be using to find evidence against me. --SevenOfDiamonds 14:54, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've been away for a week and so missed what had been done and have not caught up yet. I hope you get a fair hearing, I haven't looked at the other evidence much but I do feel the spelling stuff was used to pad it out and increase the perceived commonality . Sophia 15:45, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Norte del Valle Cartel

Hi Seven, quick question.. do you have anything to do with User:Shield187? I'm just checking.. but if you don't.. check the article talk page.. to see if you like my proposal to improve the article in the "to do" section. --F3rn4nd0 (Roger - Out) 21:47, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No I havent seen the user around before. Will check now and let you know what I think. I been meaning to revamp that article, its kind of messy. --SevenOfDiamonds 02:21, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Killing Pablo

I'm reading it at the moment. I'm only about half way through it though. I'm no expert on Colombia so I can't say wheater that person is right about those mistakes but they seem pretty minor anyway. You did say you were looking for something about his life. This book does have a fair bit about his life but it is mostly about the attempts to arrest him and the hunt for him. But the book is a great read and informative and i would definetly recommend it. The H-Man2 18:51, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I read that book on a plane a few months ago. It's a pretty easy read, but fairly interesting. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 14:45, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good, I will pick it up this weekend and see what can be used from it as sources for the Colombia articles. I agree alot of the complaints were minor, was just worried about overall accuracy when minor issues were incorrect. Thanks. --SevenOfDiamonds 15:01, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another RFCU

Looks like #5 has been brought up. Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Zer0faults --Bobblehead (rants) 19:53, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

More people I am, interesting. When does it end. --SevenOfDiamonds 20:03, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I think this is fairly ridiculous. There's really no other word for it. The worst thing I've done to Nescio is to ask him what he's doing to stop terrorism ("Are you trying to hug them to death?") and to state the United States policy of opposing totalitarian regimes.[15] Then realized I went overboard, and I said I'm going to stop talking about anything other than the article because "I've gone down the troll road with Nescio."[16] Nescio thinks I called him a troll. I think I was calling myself a troll more than Nescio. None the less, suddenly I'm Zer0faults.
I don't think I'm you. I'm not really interested in Colombia. You live in the East, and I live in the Midwest. What do you think? Are we twins separated at birth? Isaac Pankonin 05:19, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have no clue and really do not get how I came into being involved in another RFCU. Its now my 5th I believe and you make the 8th or so person I am accused of being. Good luck with whatever you guys are dealing with. --SevenOfDiamonds 12:11, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comment on the talk page. I know about this stuff having done computing courses for 4 years at college/university here in the United Kingdom.

Anyway, what articles are you working on?? Any I can help you with?? If you find any interesting articles that you're editing that you think I'd be interested in, let me know!

Thanks, --Solumeiras talk 13:17, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I mainly edit articles relating to Colombia and the drug cartels that exist there. I am actually preparing an article offline about narco states, hopefully I will be able to continue to work on articles here at Wikipedia, if not then its a shame. Since all of this commotion began, I have been detracted from being able to participate in articles as much as I would like to. --SevenOfDiamonds 13:22, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Are you going to edit any other topics as well?? I'm not criticising your editing, in case you're thinking that! I started out editing articles on cars, British geography and plant-related stuff, but now I'm expanding to edit anything and everything. Hopefully you will be able to continue to edit. I wish people would stop turning Request for arbitration talkpages into argy-bargies as it doesn't do anyone any good. --Solumeiras talk 13:29, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • I may, not really sure what I would expand into. I feel a close relation to Colombia as my grandparents came to this country due to much of issues arising from paramilitary groups operating in nearby towns and the drug trades affects on people. Its close to home I guess. I would like to expand perhaps later on. Political topics seem to be something I will have to avoid however. I am sure after some time of looking around and seeing what others are into I may find new topics, however there is so much to be done on Colombia as is, its hard to divert much attention for long without feeling as though I am abandoning a just cause. --SevenOfDiamonds 14:01, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

template citation request

Could you please refresh me on how to do this?

Also I don't see what this has to do with people throwing personal attacks at me. Hoponpop69 14:56, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't I was not addressing that at all, and personal attacks are never permitted. Let me look up the old thread where someone posted the template code, give me a few minutes. --SevenOfDiamonds 15:51, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Placing {{sources}} on the section will identify it as needing sources. It is generally used when there are gonig to be multiple fact tags placed, its a cleaner way to state the same. --SevenOfDiamonds 15:55, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, if an article is unsourced I will add that in the future. Hoponpop69 18:49, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
