Mizu onna sango15Hello!


Your comments on my edits at Invasion of Goa

Regarding this revert of my edit: I would request you to provide a good reason for reverting. Comments such as this: (undid. I didn't bother because you could not accept that your views and arguments were not making any sense to other users) can be considered as a personal attack.

Really, is it a sufficient reason to revert anyones edit? If yes then there is no need to discuss anything on Wikipedia.Every user can claim that the other editor's views were not making sense and revert their edits. Can I similarly say that you are not accepting that your views and arguments are not making sense and revert all your edits? Not condusive to the spirit of discussion and consensus on Wikipedia, is it?

Even after being asked for a good reason you have not bothered to discuss and instead reverted my edit without discussing. I have already pointed out that Wikipedia naming conventions support my claims. You chose not to discuss. I waited for two weeks before making any changes.

Your entire disucssion of the topic is 4 lines; none of which provide anything of substance whatsover. Your behaviour has been to laugh at me or to make caustic remarks. No refs ,No disucssion about the topic itelf. Rather than trying to diffuse the situation and indulge in a healthy debate you have only attempted to provoke the edit war. rather surprising behaviour for someone who is an administrator on wikipedia.--Deepak D'Souza 07:17, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Invasion of Goa

Hi. I noticed some recent edit-warring there and subsequently the article was protected. I wonder if you would be willing to hold off on the matter of diacritics in place names while a proper discussion takes place on the talk page? If so, I could unprotect the page. Thanks for your consideration. --John (talk) 04:29, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

King Vitaman

I'm curious. Back on July 10, 2008, one minute after someone correctly changed back the misspelling of the King Vitaman cereal entry from "King Vitamin" -- a name by which the cereal has never been known, as even a simple Google search (particularly an image one) will reveal -- to the correct "King Vitaman," you changed it back to the incorrect "King Vitamin." Why? And why so quickly? That you were eminently and emphatically incorrect cannot be gainsaid. This error has sat on Wikipedia for the last 5 months now, and of course comes up in a Google search. This makes Wikipedia look, well, stupid. Jhw57 (talk) 05:37, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Understood, particularly the need for patrolling vandalism by anonymous users, your efforts on behalf of which are truly much appreciated. However, changing the article name and the references to that name in the article doesn't strike me as obvious vandalism, simply because it was done by an anonymous user. I realize that in patrolling vandalism, one needs to look for certain earmarks, and that one doesn't necessarily have time to Google something on one's own; but the approach taken is a heavy-handed one that in this instance resulted in the months-long perpetuation of what I view as the worst kind of Wikipedian sin: flat-out incorrectness. Jhw57 (talk) 12:30, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom vote

If you have not, I'd ask that you take a look a Wikipedia talk:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2008/Vote/Vassyana#Devolution. It may or may not may assuage your concerns. If not, I respect your disagreement. Be well! Vassyana (talk) 22:35, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking the time to look it over and consider it. Be well! Vassyana (talk) 23:14, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My candidacy

Hey. I think you missed my underlying rationale for that statement in which you opposed me for. I stated that I was not yet ready because if you look at many of the votes of opposition last year, they were opposes of "too new", "not enough experience", "perhaps next election", etc. In fact, there were a good deal of these types of opposes on mine, implying that that was the primary reason for my candidacy's failure. Just thought I'd clarify, because in my case the votes seemed to imply experience being a prime issue. (Of course, this year I have many other issues, but experience is definitely not one of them).

User: Doirocoa

You might find it funny that our mutual good faith editor acquaintance with problematic punctuation (Doirocoa) has actually taken some of my advice, but done it too literally. Instead of putting commas without punctuation, he's taken to putting commas with spaces on both sides. I guess you'll have to rewrite any scripts you wrote up for the task.

Unprotection request

Hi there, a page you protected (last) was requested to be unprotected here. As the protecting admin, you are asked to consider the request yourself first. You may of course refer this decision to admins working at RFPP if you wish. Regards SoWhy 21:31, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've left a note there about this request in hopes you will reconsider it. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 00:30, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, that page? Should be unprotected sometime around the heat death of the Universe.I logged in today for the first time in 2 days and my watchlist was, like, 90% Teletubby-related. Never underestimate the power of a determined troll, I guess. I reprotected for a year; obviously that's open to debate, but...seriously. Look at the log since the semi was removed...it's like >BLAMMO<. GJC 02:02, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - I'm posting to note that, following a brief discussion on the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard, I have moved the lengthy discussion which resulted from your oppose to the talk page. If you have any queries, please just ask. Warofdreams talk 00:18, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Husond, I think you need to act and provide some DIFFs - things are going to snowball if you don't. As an admin, you've seen these things happen, and if it gets out of hand, its going to damage your ability to act effectively. I say this as a friend - take the time to find some DIFFs, and quickly. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 14:37, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Husond: another reason why there should be a standard desysop process

Even people who agree with your oppose are telling you that your behavior is odious, "character assassination", "petulant", etc. etc. Your only hurting yourself with your stubborn defense of what is poor behavior. That you have now taken away your recall, something many people consider prime to their support for adminship, shows you have difficult with ethics, although your behavior at Eco's RfA that at least six established editors are taking issue with, is enough. This isn't oppose bashing - some of your fellow opposers are incensed at how you are acting. Wake up! --David Shankbone 01:41, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Open to recall no more

May I ask why you decided to change your stance on this? - Arcayne (cast a spell) 06:11, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

See the above section; a certain group of editors has now decided that opposing an RfA candidate somehow equals abuse of the admin tools. GlassCobra 15:03, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not addressing that, GlassCobra. I was curious about the decision to remove one of the provisions by which one is selected to be an admin. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 15:29, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just so very sorry

Please accept it. I still wish you had supplied those diffs (actually, for this reason) or some other evidence, but it appears you were right. I just hope you accept this heartfelt apology for being so dogged with you. I'm just...very upset right now about this entire RfA. --David Shankbone 21:07, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Meant to tell you earlier, I apologize for calling you a dick, because it turns out you were dead on. Please accept my apology.--Iamawesome800 Talk 00:25, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to ask (maybe more like demand) that people apologize to you because I felt you had been vindicated...but people didn't really care to listen. I didn't speak up for a lot of it but I was in your corner the whole time. Atenciosamente, amigo... Mike H. Fierce! 02:24, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ecoleetage

What happened? I can't believe he has done this again. I;ve seen that but I can't see why one edit under Eco 2 was enough to ban him permanently. I can't seem to find what terrible thing he did. I;ve sent an email anyway. It looks to me as if he has over-reacted again and in his actions has blown all excellent opportunities he had. What I find a little hard to take again is that he walked out when the going got tough AGAIN! and wasted peoples time in commenting at the RFA. He should have learned his lesson last time. Dr. Blofeld White cat 15:12, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently, he harassed someone who (I think?) opposed his RfA - before or after I'm not sure - and was de facto banned since no administrator is likely to unblock after that. Caulde 16:13, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sent an email outside of wikipedia contacting him you mean? Mmm thats not a good idea but not grounds for a permanent blocking I think, especially when he is a good contributor. I can see why he might be frustrated and stressed by it, but even if he was banned from becoming an admin because of his weaknesses he should still have the option to return and contribute to the encyclopedia I think. Dr. Blofeld White cat 16:43, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure the permanent link on Eco's userpage is to ANI; if you go a bit further up that revision of the page you can read the full discussion/events. Caulde 17:45, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yep. Blofeld, when someone is so fake and unstable they should probably not become an admin; and when they contact another user's real life employer and try to have them fired then they should probably not edit anymore. Húsönd 18:46, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OMG is that really what he did? How can wikipedia and his job be related? unless this person was editing wikipedia and his boss didn't know at work and Eco contacted his employer out of spite to let him know he wasn't doing his job and get him fired? Wow I find that hard to believe, would Eco really do that? Dr. Blofeld White cat 18:53, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's true. Eco contacted the boss of someone who opposed his RfA (another friend of mind) to get them in trouble. Eco has confirmed this both on-wiki and in private correspondence with me and others. We're all very hurt with egg on our face. --David Shankbone 18:59, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can't believe it. Thats evil man even by my standards! Thats serious shit which could affect the guys livelihood and life. I'm extremely disiappointed in him. I can't believe somebody would be that cruel and mix website like wikipedia with his career. I haven't heard what he has to say about it in all fairness but the fact he requested his account be deleted says something. Dr. Blofeld White cat 19:43, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Equatorial Guinea - Portuguese as official language

The only proof I can find of Portuguese having third official language status is here and here. I am fluent in Spanish and searches throughout the internet do not show any other reliable sources to back up the claims. The only other verifications are a short country profile in an Aragonese news-site from Expo 2008[1] and various unreliable blogs. I would contest the information until it can be further verified. It seems strange: not only are there no websites making note of something that was supposed to have happened over a year ago, but also Portuguese is an exceptionally little-spoken language in the country in comparison to others.

re your comments at RPP for Gary Shaw

Take a look at the IP's talkpage.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 19:15, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Look at his contrib history. His modus operandi is to pop up every few weeks add the blp-violative information to the article. His edits are the only edits to the Gary Shaw article and all he does is add blp-violative information to articles. The fact that he does his vandalism at intermittent occasions should not be a technicality that should warrant ignoring his actions. Obviously, we can continue to revert, continue to add warning templates to his talkpage, continue with rpp requests, and continue with arv requests. But a better alternative is to let editors spend their time at WP doing constructive editing. It's up to you. Best, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 19:29, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Independant Review

Husond, I have an editor calling me a bad admin and accusing me of wikistalking, endorsing wiki stalking. I believe these to be straw man arguments but would appreciate an outside opinion for an editor whose opinion I trust greatly. Can you take a look at the ANI thread and give me some thoughts? Thanks!

Iceland/EU

Hi Husond. Thanks for taking an interest in the issue I raised about the opening paragraph on Iceland. I had a thought, perhaps being a member of EFTA doesn't necessarily mean that a member state cannot join the EU whilst still being a part of EFTA. Take the Hoyvík Agreement, well that's a separate free trade organisation to which Iceland belongs. Although its sole partner is not strictly speaking a country, I would have thought that no conventions would forbid any country from sharing a set of values and codes with another set of states; not unless the two organisations are radically opposed such as both pre-1990 EFTA and the EEC with the former COMECON (Warsaw Pact lands). Sadly, apart from names and members, I know very little about the internal functions of these blocs!! Do you have any thoughts on this? It might just be as good an idea as any to leave the page exactly as it stands. Evlekis (talk) 11:57, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

All done. Huyvík mentioned. Feel free to rephrase it if you wish. Cheers. Evlekis (talk) 09:53, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hostile?

Your user page says you are friendly. But you seem quite hostile in the way you word things--almost like you are taking shots at other editors who have a different point of view. Also, if you really can't stand that English doesn't normally use diacritics, no one is forcing you to edit English wikipedia. Using the word "abolitionist" to describe the other side of the coin shows a lot of ignorance (sorry for my own off-coloured wording). Look, English wikipedia is for the layman and the most common usages in English are supposed to be the norm. Rarely in written or printed text are diacritics found. The only time that diacritics seem to have any frequency in normal written English are when French or, more recently, Spanish words are used. So, my question is, why would "pro-diacritic" people want to force diacritics on English when they are not normally there? Because it is wrong without them? No, sorry, that is not true. In English, it is not wrong to omit diacritics and it doesn't change the pronunciation. Maybe in Swedish or Polish or Spanish it is wrong, but it makes no difference in English. English does not spell English wrong. You made comments like you need diacrtics to pronounce the word correctly. Well, if you hadn't noticed, English spelling is so messed up that sounding out words is almost useless anyway. I would hazzard a guess that over 95% of layman English readers have no idea how most diacrtics affect pronunciation and so diacritics are almost useless in English. Wikipedia is supposed to reflect the way English is most commonly written. So, please keep off-colour remarks like "ignorance" and "abolitionist" to yourself when describing people who are trying to have Wikipedia reflect the way English is actually written, not the way you want it to be written.

Questionable Warning

Husond, you have been taking part in the Djokovic discussion for a while, so you know how contentious it is. Edits such as this one are highly disruptive in the middle of a move request. Slapping my wrist for reverting it is quarrelsome, to say the least, and unfitting of an administrator. I hope this does not continue. --Yano (talk) 15:50, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question

I've tried to suggest a new - slightly faster - way of dealing with the mess on the Basque people page (see [[2]]). It's a mess and getting messier, people keep adding random people to it. The approach I suggested has merit I think but there has been a deafening silence on the talk page. Any idea how best to approach this? I there a wiki procedure for dealing with such a page split/move when the reaction has been this ... quiet? Cheers. Akerbeltz (talk) 00:59, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Move warning over Teitur Thordarson

User:Husond You should not have moved the page Teitur Thordarson to Teitur Þórðarson after a decision by a closing administrator (Aervanath) of a WP:RM.[3] If the page is moved back and you do that again without the consent of the moving administrator, I will block your account for disruption. If the decision by Aervanath had been the other way around and someone had moved the page from Teitur Þórðarson to Teitur Thordarson I am sure you would have complained about such a move -- "What's source for the goose is source for the gander". --PBS (talk) 13:59, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"... and even if he hadn't agreed it would still be perfectly valid for me to move back." No it would not. --PBS (talk) 19:22, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

regarding discussion on User talk:Ijanderson977 page

I have posted some responds regarding forementioned discussion on the very own page of editor User:Ijanderson977. Since it could be considered, that it is more of his personal page, than anyone else's, he could mind if we try to keep a centralized discussion there. For the moment I have no idea on how to relate to this matter, but perhaps you could think of some alternative to exchanging opinions between us and continue the discussion.
