New WP:AE discussion about Gibraltar

Please see WP:AE#Arbitration enforcement action appeal by Wee Curry Monster. The May 2011 sanction about Gibraltar named yourself (under a former name) as well as Wee Curry Monster. That AE led to a proposal for an RfC about the disputed matters. It appears that the RfC was never conducted, and admins may need to decide if an RfC should still be required before all the restrictions are lifted. You may find this whole matter of little concern if you are no longer planning to actively edit at Gibraltar. You may comment in the AE thread if you wish. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 14:55, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

The appeal by Wee Curry Monster against the May 2011 Gibraltar restriction that was also imposed on you and two others is successful. Please see this result. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 03:15, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

Re: User:Lukabeograd

Can you please file a WP:ANI or WP:AE report about it? I'd block them at this point, but I'd prefer someone else do it in order to avoid any impression of impropriety. --Joy (talk) 13:11, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Egad, it looks like all they do is come back every six months and make the same disruptive changes. Well, it won't be hard to convince another admin to block them because the persistent single-purpose abuse is painfully obvious. --Joy (talk) 13:14, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The thread is "Talk:Falkland Islands sovereignty_dispute".

Guide for participants

If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form.

What this noticeboard is:
  • It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction.
What this noticeboard is not:
  • It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct.
  • It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums.
  • It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN.
  • It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy.
Things to remember:
  • Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors. Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion.
  • Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page.
  • Sign and date your posts with four tildes "~~~~".
  • If you ever need any help, ask one of our volunteers, who will help you as best as they can. You may also wish to read through the FAQ page located here and on the DR/N talkpage.

Please take a moment to review the simple guide and join the discussion. Thank you! EarwigBot  13:48, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

Gone back to my roots

Fed up with a dialogue of the deaf, I've gone back to my roots. Good old content creation, remember that? A work in progress, which I'd welcome your comments on. I can't find much in the way of information. Wee Curry Monster talk 15:04, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

It looks good to me - plenty good enough for DYK. But I have a few thoughts:
I'd be a touch concerned that this identifies the wrong target for notability. I think it's worth considering, given that we don't have much to talk about regarding much of the rest of his life, whether it is Mestevier who is notable, or the mutiny that killed him. You avoid making it into a coatrack of Reassertion of British sovereignty over the Falkland Islands (1833), which is good.
On specifics, I think I'd start Esteban Mestivier was an Argentine military commander who is best known... - we don't normally start article with Esteban Mestivier is best known. On "the only such appointment to be properly gazetted" - presumably that includes Menéndez in 1982? And is gazetting particularly important in this case? It might be a good idea to be clearer on why this is a significant distinction to draw.
I'm not sure that the point that 1833 "prompted the start of the Falkland Islands sovereignty dispute" is as clear-cut as suggested - you could probably make a case for any one of a number of dates from the 1760s to the 1940s, depending on POV and definition. It might be better to emphasise that the islands have been under British control pretty much continuously since then?
Finally, we could probably do with converting the cites to be inline rather than using a list of sources. Kahastok talk 21:53, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
Plan to do inline cites next. I tend to write up a text based on my notes, then go back and do inline cites afterward. I've done some copy editing as suggested. I also have a line on some primary source material from the BA archive to follow up. Thanks for the comments. Wee Curry Monster talk 11:58, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Comment

This bad faith comment of yours looks a lot like WP:BAIT given that I had just pledged not to comment on that thread anymore. I'd appreciate if you could restrict your comments on content or at least do your research properly before making such accusations. Regards. Gaba 12:42, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
