Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 01:52, 11 September 2010

I migrated here after being blocked indefinitely on Simple for incivility. I do not consider "bullshit" or "trigger-happy" personal attacks. If you disagree with me, I will be more than happy to explain. Otherwise, if you have come to dole out civility warnings, halt and back off. Such threats will be deleted from this page.

Speedy deletions

Hi there; please be careful to follow[REDACTED] policy in nominating articles for {{speedy}} deletion. The article Jim couper, which you nominated, contains a clear assertion of notability. Whether it is, in fact, notable is beside the point, the assertion alone is sufficient to prevent this deletion. Whether the article qualifies for deletion under WP:PROD or WP:AfD I make no comment on. --Anthony Bradbury 20:39, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Deletion

Hello. I noticed that you attempted to file a deletion discussion (on the article Jim Couper) but did not complete the process. Please note that, when listing an article for deletion, a discussion page needs to be made for other users to discuss whether to keep or delete the article. This is typically done by following the steps listed here. Note that if you are editing as an unregistered user, you cannot create a discussion page. Please consider registering an account or asking another user to help you complete the process at Misplaced Pages talk:Articles for deletion. Thank you.

I'm sorry, sir, for not completing the process!! I also apologize for leaving you "as the ONLY PERSON ON THE WHOLE WIKI who can finish redlinked nominations"! :( Protector of Wiki (talk) 22:29, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

concerning the secondbalkanwar

The central section of the article is mostly false material that was obtained from Greek and Serbian nationalist sites. This is why I removed it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.36.159 (talk • contribs)

Removal of PROD templates

I see that you restored a PROD template that the creator of Risoterapia creativa removed. Please do not do so in the future. PRODs templates can be removed by anyone, as is explained at Misplaced Pages:Prod#Objecting. — GorillaWarfare 23:47, 4 September 2010 (UTC) Hello.

Relisting Édmée Schneerson

As reviewing administrator, I thought the nature of the AfD discussion had so far degenerated that, invoking IAR, I thought it advisable to close, blank, and relist at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Édmée Schneerson (2nd nomination). I'm sorry that you'll have to give the argument over again, but see my note at the AfD 2. And please avoid mentioned other matters than the article in question. I find it helps to avoid the word "you". You mention above that you do not like to receive warnings about NPA. I do not like to give them, either, but please keep the rule in mind. DGG ( talk ) 05:41, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

I noticed that and have already commented at the relisted discussion. It's not NPA warnings that I dislike but civility warnings. Thanks for letting me know. Protector of Wiki (talk) 05:52, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

A note, but not a threat

Having had Djsasso's talk watchlisted, I noted that conversation. It's in your best interests to stay away from Griff. In response to this, I admit I don't always agree with his blocks, but they have never been abusive in the least.

Can you not see that following him to two talk pages and leaving comments referencing the block on simple is provocation? If he hadn't already drawn the conclusion that you were stalking his edits, it is more than understandable that he would do so.

As you have stated you are someone who values honesty, here is a page you might find refreshingly accurate: observations of Misplaced Pages behaviour. As always my words are simply well-meaning advice, heed them as you will; you know how to reach me should you wish to. Cheers. sonia♫ 11:20, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, Sonia, for the advice. If I need anything, I will definitely contact you, as you appear to be part of the more competent of Simple users. However, I seek to respond to some points you made above.

• It's in your best interests to stay away from Griff Why? Am I to fear him because he abusively blocked me numerous times at Simple?
• Griffinofwales' blocks "have never been abusive in the least"? His blocking of me seriously breached WP:INVOLVED. He voted to delete my article, and blocked me to cripple my ability to respond to erroneous arguments and misrepresentations at the RfD. What's more, he accused me of making personal attacks, something I never did.
• referencing the block on simple I referenced it only because he was making egregious assumptions of bad faith, suggesting that I was stalking him.
• What's wrong with "following him to two talk pages"? When he makes incompetent, unconstructive, unhelpful, and biased comments, it must certainly be communicated. He is also known to stand by passively while others do the work, commanding "Please fix it". Why can't he fix it? Oh, right, because he's incompetent.
• A final point about mods: they avidly enforce the civility policy, but neglect to follow it themselves. This injustice is ridiculous, so my comments are wholly warranted. Protector of Wiki (talk) 22:45, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Great job, both of you! Sonia, you deliberately came here to provoke me, to elicit a response that would remotely be blockable. You did this to give Either way an excuse to abusively instigate a block to shut me down. Either way, it's blatant that you logged on with an agenda. After the block, you made a minor reversion and left. Let me remind you that you nominated my article for deletion, and you have a conflict of interest whenever you come in contact with me. Therefore, next time you have a whim to block me, ask an UNINVOLVED mod to block, but I highly doubt that they will comply, for they would not block abusively so. I commend both of you for your well played-out conspiracy. Protector of Wiki (talk) 01:52, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Sonia, please do respond to both the above posts by me. I look forward to you replies. Thanks, Protector of Wiki (talk) 01:52, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Help Desk

When you are answering on the help desk, you shouldn't use just no as an answer. In most cases, you should give a reason to why you said no. Also, do a little research before giving a one word answer. In this case, WP:FFU had just what the user was looking for.  A p3rson ‽ 23:00, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Sure, but we must exercise caution when granting such user rights. Protector of Wiki (talk) 23:13, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Blocked by Either way for 72 hours

Because of this and your overall attitude/tone here, I have blocked you for 72 hours. You cannot attack others and be uncivil towards them. I do not care how you feel about admins being "hypocritical" or anything like that. That in no way gives you the right to attack others and give an abrasive tone towards others. Please take a less aggressive and more collaborative tone, or you may be headed down a similar path here with the "Big Boys" as you did at the "Little Boys place" as you term it. either way (talk) 23:14, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Where did I attack anyone? By the way, you have breached WP:INVOLVED, so you need to remedy this forthwith.
If you believe that no one can be uncivil, you need to discuss that with the following mods: Beeblebrox, Nev1, and Iridescent. You are hereby banned from my talk page. Protector of Wiki (talk) 23:21, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
