[edit]Andy Bjornovich alias Andrzejestrować Zajaczajkowski Plecaxpiwórserafinowiczaświadzenie Poświadczyxwiadectwo-Bjornovich - the author of this article - has now been blocked, see here. --Kleinzach 02:43, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- And have been unblocked since.--Andrzejestrować ZP Pbjornovich (talk) (contributions) 10:18, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Removal of comment
[edit]Explanation. Satri Son just deleted my information that Andrzejestrować ZP Pbjornovich had been blocked. I'd like to explain that I posted here because (1) there's a strong possibility that this article is a complete hoax, and (2) the blocking discussion referred back to this Afd. --Kleinzach 13:06, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- The article needs to be considered on its own merits (or lack thereof). GbT/c 13:17, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Whether or not the article creator has been blocked (for an entirely unrelated issue, and is now unblocked) is wholly and completely irrelevant to this discussion here. It serves to needlessly embarrass the user, and I urge removal of these comments once again, or at the very least moving this separate discussion to Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Rhíannon Thomas. — Satori Son 13:29, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- The credibility of the author of the article is an issue here, so the other discussion was relevant. My intention was not to embarrass anybody, especially as I thought the user, having been blocked, was no longer involved. My interest is only in this Afd. (I haven't encountered Andrzejestrować ZP Pbjornovich except in relation to the article so there is absolutely nothing personal in this.) --Kleinzach 14:48, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Just to clarify: User:Andy Bjornovich does not appear to be the creator of the article; he just moved it to the current title (with the diacritic in the forename), though he did add the material identifying the article's subject with Niamh O'Brien. The article Rhiannon Thomas, now a redirect, was begun on June 28, 2007, by Bitethedust (talk · contribs). Deor (talk) 15:09, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Whoops, I didn't even check if that assertion by Kleinzach was correct, but you're absolutely right.[1] Yet another reason this unrelated sub-discussion should be moved, and I am doing so. Please do not restore it. — Satori Son 15:30, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Objection: I made no assertion. I've been trying to understand the circumstances surrounding this article, and I'd like to thank Deor for his/her information. It's relevant and should go with the Afd. Please reconsider your action and at least restore what he/she wrote to the page. --Kleinzach 15:50, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- You did make an assertion, that User:Andy Bjornovich was "the author of this article". That assertion was incorrect. Honestly, I fail to understand why you are being so obstinate on this issue. Two separate administrators have informed you that your comments are not relevant to the AfD discussion at hand. Your tendentious insistence on this issue is rapidly becoming disruptive. — Satori Son 16:08, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- WP:AGF. Non-one is going to argue with an article history, but it is possible to misunderstand one especially when the title has been changed and the article recreated. --Kleinzach 23:15, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
