==Problem== | |||
I can understand your good faith change, but your edit summary is incorrect. As WhatamIdoing has pointed out there was in fact a consensus for the change, it is SlimVirgin who changed from the only version that had consensus agreement. I suggest from now on that threads be allowed to work their way through a bit longer before you declare a consensus. The archived discussion What points to occurred for almost a month and was detailed to every aspect of the policy page. I and What were both involved in it; I am intimately aware of what on that page had consensus and to SlimVirgin's history of reverting new consensus' because he/she prefers "status quo" and wording "with long standing history" both of which are illegitimate debating points against a new consensus. That is why I reverted him/her.] (]) 01:51, 2 December 2009 (UTC) | |||

:You need solid and wide consensus to make changes to a Policy page, and I don't see where consensus was reached for the change. SlimVirgin reverted the change and I back her reversion because I haven't seen the "new" consensus for it, nor is there consensus now - the "new" wording is inferior to the original. I remember discussing that same wording months ago and we decided on it then, I haven't seeen anything since that time. Please continue this discussion on the policy's talk page, not here.

I'm not really certain on where I can have this discussion with you, but I would really like your reasoning as to why comments about words being portmanteaus should be put everywhere a word appears to be one regardless of whether or not the information is helpful or too obvious not to already be known by a user.

The image was used for identification of the subject. There are no substantial differences in appearance between the cheerleader image and the crime-fighter image—only clothing change.

How "remarkable" is sourced. Explain to me please how listing non-notable athletes on a track team can be legitimately explained in any policy herein. Explain to me please how listing Cheerleading as a sport, when the state association responsible for athletics refers to it as a club, and does not recognize it as a sport. Explain to me who "Damon McDaniel" is, and how he's notable. Explain to me how the students in charge of the JROTC, and the JROTC itself (which is present at most every school in the entire country), are notable. Sure, the bomb threat is sourced. I know of approximately 30 schools in my area alone that have received bomb threats and people have been arrested as a result of said threats. They don't make national news, this one didn't either. It was a flash in the pan, notable for a day, at most two. It certainly wasn't nationally notable. It is sourced, so its inclusion is fine. NOTHING else that you claimed was "sourced" had any sources whatsoever. Your edit was clearly in bad faith, and the edit summary disingenuous given the actual edits you made.

I've asked you multiple time to leave me alone. I have reported you multiple times and i have caught you and the other two involved with my blocking from the 5-8th in the wrong by fraternizing with the admin who blocked me again.

:::Um, I'm afraid you have me confused with someone else, I'm not in the least bit upset.

You no doubt realize that "remarkable" is a pov word. Just because your reverted, doesn't make the edits right. The edits I made were absolutely not vandalism.

== Image closure == | |||
May I respectfully suggest that you are personally in no position to make controversial closures in contentious NFCC IFD cases like the Conqueror one ? I could accept a keep (or rather: "no consensus") closure from a competent admin with a serious track record on image deletion issues. But, sorry, I can't accept it from you. You have no substantial experience in IfD closure work. You have only done two or three cases that I can find; in both the previous ones you suddenly popped up at IfD to save scouting-related images that were being defended by your friends. Now you close this one that I nominated, after me scrutinizing your own image uploads and calling you on a few bad cases. This reeks of retaliation. | |||
Moreover, your own track record at non-free image uploads indicates you are either not competent to correctly judge copyright and NFC issues, or unwilling to follow the policies. Just the other day I caught you at a blatant case of copyvio, the fraudulent pd-self claim of ]. That alone would have been enough to get you desysopped. Today I find there's another of the same kind: ], where at least two components, as well as the overall idea of the composition, are quite obviously copied from motive, together with ]. I first thought it possible that your claim here (''"None of these items are copied from any 2001: A space odyssey film frame or other related artwork. I created each aspect of this image by hand in a graphics program"'') was just an error of judgment, and that you honestly believed that by just re-tracing the contours after the original in your graphics program you could avoid committing copyright violation. If it was just that, it would still document a degree of cluelessness that would make you unfit for being an administrator at this site, and very definitely unfit for venturing into closing IfD debates. But on checking the images again, I can no longer extend even that degree of AGF. The images are pixel-by-pixel identical. Your claim was just a lie. | |||
(By the way, I've also tagged your replacement ] on commons, as it is evidently again based on some photograph and fails to declare its source.) | |||
Can I please ask you to revert your closure and let this be handled by somebody else with more experience and less grudge. | |||
Also, on having verified the nature of the copyvio, I have to ask you at this point: what are your criteria for recall? ] ] 08:08, 20 August 2008 (UTC) |

You can't honestly believe that high school athletes who win a race, and achieve no other notoriety aside from that race, merit listing in an encyclopedia. You no doubt realize that "remarkable" is a pov word. Just because your reverted, doesn't make the edits right. The edits I made were absolutely not vandalism. I provided concise and policy driven reasoning for each of my edits. Just because something is sourced, does not make it notable. 99.169.250.133 (talk) 04:33, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
- Um, I'm afraid you have me confused with someone else, I'm not in the least bit upset. Your removal of sourced content and then edit warring with another editor over that removal, has all the earmarks of vandalism - I revert vandalism and take appropriate actions to make sure it, and any edit warring, stops. Glad to see you've started a discussion on the talk page, you should also consider creating an account. Good luck! Dreadstar ☥ 03:41, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
- I would prefer, rather than an obviously upset response, if you'd actually read the reasons why I removed the content in the first place, and explain your reason behind reinserting them. I'd like to think that if you had blocked me for it, you also would have blocked the other user, but you and I both know that wouldn't have happened. Admins around here don't get blocked for anything...more of the same if you ask me. 99.169.250.133 (talk) 03:26, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
