Discussions

Randroide

I also suggested an alternative wording I think is a bit more informative that yours: ...alleguedly islamist but disputed 2004 madrid train bombings.

Paste it if you think is better, if not, your wording is good enough for me.

Bulletproof vest is a bad, bad title, really. To avoid endless discussions about which term is more "popular" I suggest to preserve "Bulletproof" as a redirection page with a brief explanation about the history of the term (in the renaissance they really "proofed" metallic armour shooting at it, so the hump of the bullet in the cuirass showed you that the gear was "proofed") and why is incorrect applied to contemporary ballistic vests.

Body armour is also a very bad title for an article about Ballistic vests. For instance: A helmet, any military helmet, from Corinthian classic helmets to the PASGT helmet, is also "Body armour". Nevertheles, Body armor (and Body armour) should also be created.

S**t!!!!!. They are already redirected!. Bad, bad, bad. I have on my desk a book named "Body armour" ISBN 1574882937, that covers from wooden shields to riot police gear. Please fix this mess, Asterion, because the current presentation is misleading to the reader.

Done: I redirected Body armor and Body armour to Armour, that is the correct article. Users groaned and moaned in the talk pages of both pages about the incorrect redirection to "Bulletoproof vest". "Body Armour" can NOT be the new title for "Bulletpooff vest", the existence of Armour is just another reason.

Happy new year, Asterion!. Randroide 19:04, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

cross-posting

I have seen now your message, I was not aware that it was not allowed; I apologize and thank you for you warning. I was trying to alert Administrators to abusive tagging by Misplaced Pages editors, who joined like a gang, which have been deleting for a long time good science articles at Misplaced Pages, and no one seems to care to stop them. Thanks --Utad3 02:51, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Btw, how can I contest the deletion "prod"? tag that was posted in the article Creation: The Physical Truth? There was another tag at the talk page of this article for speedy deletion, I wrote there may reasons to constested it but that tag was then removed. May you help please? --Utad3 04:02, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

I think I've already found out how to contest that tag. Thanks anyway. --Utad3 04:14, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

This same user Utad3 has spammed Misplaced Pages twice anonymously as 213.58.99.22 with links to copies of its articles on Creation: The Physical Truth and Harold Aspden at PowerPedia - please see User talk:213.58.99.22 and Special:Contributions/213.58.99.22 for details. -- Jeff G. 17:55, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Firefox proxy testing

Firefox proxy testing is not a guaranteed method. I've been wanting the WP:OP experts to post some documentation on best practices but I don't think that's happened yet. Anyway, I have Firefox 1.5.0.7 and go to Tools → Options → on the General "tab", click the Connection Settings button → choose the Manual proxy configuration radion button → type the IP and port number → OK out of the various screens. Now you're going through that proxy and your real IP is being hidden. If you can still get to Misplaced Pages and get to an edit screen successfully, that means you're in. Again, don't take my word as gospel as I'm sure someone will come in and contradict me before long... —Wknight94 (talk) 14:32, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Re Koavf

Fayssal, Koavf's requesting to be unblocked. I think he's been off[REDACTED] for long enough to reflect about the past and I concur his contributions to[REDACTED] were also good, problems aside. Would you support a review at WP:AN given the case? Thanks, Asterion 07:10, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Asterion. I'll not be supporting Koavf's return unless he is partially banned on Morocco/Western Sahara related articles as i commented at the AN/I. In order to secure that we must present the case Misplaced Pages:Arbitration Committee for enforcement before allowing a banned user to return. -- Szvest - 11:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

That sounds reasonable to me. Asterion 11:17, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your support

Thank you for your support in the RfA on my behalf. It is an honor to have received your expression of confidence. To be chosen as an administrator requires a high level of confidence by a broad section of the community. Although I received a great deal of support, at this time I do not hold the level of confidence required, and the RfA did not pass. It is my wish that I will continue to deserve your confidence. Sincerely, --BostonMA 16:06, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Disambig Userpages

Hi Asterion,

Saw your comment here - Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User names, about the problem with Google searches and Userpages. This affects us all - see but in my case I believe I am the only person on the planet to use my name :).

Anyway my suggestion is - bring this up at Misplaced Pages:Village pump (proposals), and/or suggest that all pages should have code written into them explaining they are Userpages not part of the encyclopaedia, and if an article exists to disambig to it. To try to do this manually is not possible, ever. So though lots of users wont like having such a notice at the top of their page, it will give Misplaced Pages more cred on the internet.

Alternatively could contact Google and suggest that pages beginning [[User:... are not include in their searches.

Just some ideas - Cheers Lethaniol 11:36, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

That sounds sensible. I will put some words together as soon as I get back to England. Asterion 22:59, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello, can you please check?

User:Aldux seems to be abusing his moderator powers to push his POV and that of his Italian pals. Check his contributions at Francesco Patrizi, Giovanni Luppis, Andrea Meldolla, Benedetto Cotrugli, Nenad Bjelica, Osijek. He is removing valid upgrades and content to a lesser correct and highly POV versions. The first four are identical disputes as in Giulio Clovio and Giorgio Orsini articles so the policy introduced there should be applied on these articles too. --89.172.207.60 21:51, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Apologies but I am not familiar with any of these historical figures (aside Bjelica because I'm a Real Betis supporter). In all honesty, it looks as a content dispute and Aldux has not used any special admin buttons. Any editor can revert an edit if they think it is not verifiable. All I can say is that you could place a request for comments for uninvolved editors to express their views. Regards, Asterion 22:58, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Heh well the problem is I don't really know how to do that, even with the explnation it seems extremely complicated to me. The point is that this is really a minor problem. The person in question (Aldux) seems to removing valid content such as the names in Croatian for those people and cat's connected with them and even corrections to the link. For example in Giovanni Luppis he keeps reverting Austro-Hungarian Navy to non-existant Austrian Navy and putting construction 'Italian Officer' when the man was born, lived and died in Austria-Hungary so he could have been only Austro-Hungarian officer (that he was an ethnic Italian no one disputes). In Francesco Patrizi article he again removes his name in Croatia and Croatian cat while putting cat "Italians from Yugoslavia"?! The man was born in 16th century there was no Yugoslavia, same for Italy, he was Venetian (Republic of Venice) and if this designation is good for Marco Polo it's good for Patrizi as well. The same goes for Meldolla and Cotrugli. And Nenad Bjelica as a Serb is totally unreferenced, there is absolutly no proof or source given to this claim. Please mediate! --89.172.201.74 06:23, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Asterion. Actually, I don't see it as a content dispute, I mean on my part; there is obviously a content dispute among editors, but this doesn't involve me, as I'm agnostic regarding the nationalities of these guys, and really don't care much. To be clearer, if a legitimate editor inserted the same content I would have no reason to rollback, as I'm only interested here in preventing Afrika paprika (talk · contribs) from attempting to evade his ban, and blocking his new socks. All the content Afrika/Factanista is speaking of regards edits made by others, and not by me; as far as I remember, I only copyedited Andrea Meldolla, that had been written in a very bad English. You may have noted that all the articles in question are semiprotected; this was because of Afrika's sockpuppeterring, that forced me to raise a chain of sp articles to make his activities more difficult. To circumvent this, he created Praskaton (talk · contribs), that, strangely, edited only the article that are sp because of Afrika, and restored Afrika/Factanista's previous edits. And a last note: the IP that sent this complaint is in the range of Afrika's ip accounts, see Misplaced Pages:Requests for checkuser/Case/Afrika paprika. Ciao,--Aldux 17:34, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

vandalism to article on adolescence/ non nuetral points of view MAJOR HELP NEEDED!!!

I have been dealing with the article on adolesescence, namely the part on adolescent sexuality and neogitiating the removal of data of HIGHLY dubious viability and which is obviously opinionated (Lot's of the data is from a single book by leonard sax which is not easily accessible by the average person) And i have placed in more accurate and backed up Center for disease control data on adolescent rates of std transmission/pregnancy rates which have been CONSISTENTLY deleted along with the references DESPITE my asking for proof of sax's 'studies' and 'facts' to be given in an internet reference and for possible other sources on this controversial subject to be used that aren't obviously against it.

What concerns me the most is that it is FILLED with data from just ONE book by a supposed guru on adolescence who claims to have all the facts on teen sexuality and it's dangers and how while my attempts to make the article more nuetral and at least input data from both sides of the debate are overwritten...

There's the fact that some teen or parent might go to the article on adolesence and after reading a few paragraphs on the topic of teen sexuality (Which despite my best efforts is somehow constantly returned back to it's highly biased and non nuetral state by trolls) would declare it horribly dangerous and thus likely cause A LOT of worries, suppression, etc. etc. and EVEN MORE fear about the horrors of teen sex, WITHOUT even allowing for opinions to prove that STD transmission rates and pregnancies have gone down among teens in the last few years without being waaaayyy at the bottom behind the MASSES of Leonard Sax and exclusively right wing opninions, I'm requesting that the topic is locked until a consensus can be reached and if no proof of the dubious (at best) claims about teenage emotional shallowness can be brough out that someone helps me to stop this constant trolling....

The anti vandalism bot reverted my correction where i moved up the CDC data to the top and added teen sexuality based on country to the almost original super biased state...

I've decided to take this to an administrator and i think that you might be correct, currently I am about the only person to be against what i see as unnuetral, biased, and un wikified data on teen sexuality and I'm wondering if you could scan over the current version (It might have been reverted by someone again to it's old state which is what concerns me the most) And perhaps revert it to my version and lock it down until my concerns can be met.

Yours desperately,

Nateland 02:05, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

WikiStalking (User:Rainbowangie, User:LibearyGay...)

Hi. I happened across some of LibearyGay's edits and I think Rainbowangie is just trying to revert some of their overzealous changes. I'm not really sure why Rainbowangie was blocked, but if you take a look at Libeary's edit history you will see they are going around adding speedy deletion templates all over the wiki for petty reasons on articles that if they were to be deleted should probably be taken to AfD. I'm not really familiar with wiki-stalking, but I think Rainbowangie's behavior is justified. Anyway, I'd appreciate another head being involved with the situation. Thanks. Paul/_T+ 11:06, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

OK, I will have a look. Asterion 11:11, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

I agree with what you were saying about the single purpose account thing. I thought it was odd that two new users would have such an intricate knowledge of templates and stuff. I do have a comment about the speedy delete template. "If this page does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, or you intend to fix it, please remove this notice, but do not remove this notice from pages that you have created yourself. If you created this page and you disagree with this page’s proposed speedy deletion, please add:" Rainbowangie was cited for removing the speedy delete template, but as evidenced by their edit history, did not create the article. What is the procedure behind removing inappropriate speedy delete templates? Should that wording be changed that only administrators should remove the template? Just curious what you thought. Thanks for helping to get this straightened out. Paul/_T+ 11:47, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

That is a good question but I do not have the answer myself either. Personally if someone edit war over adding/removing tags, I would say it is disruption per se. However I agree that it needs further clarification indeed. Asterion 11:56, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

OK

Will look for it. This was something I always watch in the news (yah now, I would feel strange if you wanted sources for Stalin being a Georgian ;). I'll try to find something viewable online. --PaxEquilibrium 20:50, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Not only is he NOT me, I've already reverted his bizarre little freakout essay. Thanks for being on the watch, I've already reported him to the admin who blocked his other IP. ThuranX 22:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

It appears you've already beat me to the revert, and we edit conflicted... but i didnt' get the EdCon notice... anyways, he's gone way over 3RR on the Heroes page, pretending to be an NBC lawyer. We definitely need admin intervention. Cna you step in, or should I go to AIV? thank you. ThuranX 22:22, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

I called that. He's at it again. User:69.150.85.94. I've told User:Wknight94 as well. ThuranX 22:42, 9 January 2007 (UTC)(and thanks for the Semi, that should help.)

That one has been blocked too (by User:Wknight94). Asterion 22:43, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

User:68.91.212.118. Again. ThuranX 23:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Given the heavy vandalism from multiple sources, I had to protect the article too. Asterion 23:36, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

see there, he's at it again, same 'ace ass shadow' and 'thugs' comments. definitely the same, despite the religio-philosophic rhethoric he's cut n pasting around. (also posted to Wknight94.) ThuranX 04:55, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

One last thing. I hope it's not presumptuous, but I went and left a note for the IP editor who added the recipe. I think he or she is really trying to help, so I tried to steer her in the right direction. . ThuranX 22:27, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

No prob. and it does look like a good recipe. Now that I know it's in the history, I might even try it out, LOL! ThuranX 22:34, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Maps

Hi there -- thanks; I've no further changes to make, but will keep your suggestion in mind. I might even take a crack at creating SVG maps that look like the PNGs now used widely. Quizimodo 22:57, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

OK, good luck. Asterion 23:11, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Racak incident

Thank you for the answer. Have you read my comments about the Racak incident? I would also like to know why we can not use the word massacre when all the sources use this word. Why can we use it here e.g Kragujevac massacre --Noah30 20:30, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I will be reverting the title of the Podujevo article to Podujevo massacre. Generally massacre is used for "individual events of deliberate and direct mass killing, especially of noncombatant civilians or other innocents without any reasonable means of defense". As Racak is still unclear, this is why this is called "incident". Regarding Podujevo, I can not find anyone disputing the civilian nature of the victims, therefore I think that it is better to keep the original title. Regards, Asterion 20:51, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I have copyedited and wikified the Podujevo massacre article. Hope you are happy with the result. Please note that I think you made a mistake regarding Goran Stoparic, as he was not involved in the killings. He actually testified against the two Scorpions according to the CBC article. Regards, Asterion 21:47, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I also edited Gornje Obrinje massacre. Please note that the text needs to read "allegedly commited by Serbian forces" as no court case has been brought. Asterion 22:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I hope we have but behind us the misunderstandings. It was not my intention to offend you. --Noah30 08:19, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

None taken. Have a nice day. Asterion 18:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Maybe. But he was warned several times about it and just kept on going without discussion. Just seemed like a serial spammer type. --Woohookitty 08:59, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I went ahead and rescinded the block and explained the general policy on the user's talk page. Sounds like he simply didn't know. If he can get consensus on adding that link to a heavily trafficked article like Bacteria, great. It's just not a good idea to add links en masse like that. --Woohookitty 09:06, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah I usually would agree with my rationale too. :) But it looks like he really just didn't know. --Woohookitty 09:07, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

So what are you waiting for, just do it! Just because I don’t share the POW of Asterion I am automatically a “disruptive user”. Very interesting!! No administrator or not even the creators of this encyclopaedia can change the reality in Kosova. What are you trying to create here in all Kosovarian articles it is almost mythological. I am not afraid of you guys. You think that with your threats, you can stop me of writing my answer on you? I don’t delete messages on my talk page, like Asterion does. That tells a lot about him...--just a happy girl :) 13:05, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism of my pages

Hi. Thanks for semi protecting my user page but could I ask that you remove the protection on my talk page. I would prefer if vandals post comments about me on there as opposed to by vandalizing articles to which I am associated such as what is happening with Huddersfield and Electrical engineering. The vandal in question has returned once again using the IP 172.212.96.179. Thanks for your help. Adambro 14:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Your choice, of course. I unprotected it. Regards, Asterion 14:43, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

AOL proxy

hmm I am not too sure. AOL does use proxies but the one you tagged lookes like someone on a home IP which lasts until the next router reboot. AFAIK people bypass the proxy when they use a browser other than AOL's. Agathoclea 14:51, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I just realised after reading Misplaced Pages:AOL. It is no longer shared. Would your recommend a range block? Asterion 14:53, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Not too sure. I am dealing with with one vandal at Fiona Phillips - one edit made me think it is the same, but the other edits were out of profile. Range block would effect a lot of people. What I do do though, is if the vandal returns block strait away as "previously warned on different IP of same range". But you only can do that if there is a very clear pattern. Agathoclea 15:01, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, I'm sure it is the same guy but would not like to kill a fly with a nuke either. I've semiprotected many of the articles s/he's been hitting. Cheers, Asterion 15:07, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Valencia(band) deletion

I have problem with this deletion for a few reasons. For one the WP:CSD A7 states that "If the assertion is controversial or there has been a previous AfD, the article should be nominated for AfD instead." which is was not. Another problem is that they fit Misplaced Pages:Notability (music). They also follow criteria 3 through multiple national tours of the US as well as multiple international festivals in Japan including the Fuji Rock Festival. Acidskater 04:23 15 January, 2007 (UTC)

It was recreated content which has been speedy deleted previously(A7 was the reason provided at the time, merely quoting it). This is the reason why I speedied it again. Ideally it should have been taken to deletion review before recreation. As I notice that you are not the same person who originally created the article, I will restore it and file an AfD later on today. Regards, Asterion 07:26, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Semiprotection of article

I don't like you partially protecting Craig Charles' profile, though. It was being vandalised by two IPs (probably one person using two computers), and that was it. Certainly that wasn't enough to warrant protecting it.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.84.77.209 (talk • contribs)

Given that your IP is similar to the one that was being used to vandalise the article (from the same IP range belonging to an Australian service provider) and that you have just been blocked for further vandalism, I will therefore ignore your request in the meantime.

Giulio Clovio

As to your message, I would like to warn you that you are abusing your admin account rights. All my reverts are already covered by very extensive discussion on the talk pages. The point is - I've removed pseudo-historical claims : a) Kingdom of Croatia did not exts after being conquered by Hungarians 1189 - ask about it a qualified historian of the medieval Europe b) Clovio's Croatian origins is forgery coming from today's Croatia. The message, as left on my talk page I could understand only as a grave ofense.--Giorgio Orsini 03:58, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Care to explain me in what way I am "abusing my powers"? Forgive me if my words were harsh. You have basically been reverting on a serial basis for the last two weeks. Edit wars are disruptive by nature. It does not matter whether you think you are right or not. Please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the dispute resolution procedure which I recommend you follow. Please take such disputes to requests for comment, requests for mediation, or requests for arbitration rather than continuing to edit war. Regards, Asterion 07:35, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Help:Translation

Thanks. And, what about the tidbit about "he drowned" not being reflexive in Spanish? Duja► 14:44, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

This is a mistake, I think. In Spanish, to drown is said ahogar(se): "Pedro se ahogó". It can be used in non-reflexive meaning as well: "Pedro ahogó a la gata". I think that it would be the same in Italian but Aldux should be able to confirm this. Asterion 20:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh well, I guess I'll have to find some Spanish/Slavic bilingual to find a working example. Btw, I had no idea our language groups had so much similarity in this regard (French a bit less, AFAIK) before I started this research. Duja► 21:13, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

And, btw, are you from Sevilla or its vicinity? How often do you visit Spain? Duja► 14:44, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I'm from Seville. I usually go back four or five times a year, Christmas time, Seville April Fair and whenever I have some chance suring the summer. Regards, Asterion 20:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Proabivouac

I noticed that you have made an endorsement of the RfC regarding Proabivouac, and thought that I would mention to you that some of the alleged "evidence" that has been presented there might not be exactly what it appears to be. I don't know if you have already made a close inspection of the diffs presented there, but I am concerned that several of them might be quite misleading, and I have mentioned some of my concerns here: User_talk:FayssalF#False_evidence -- Karl Meier 20:13, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I am no administrator, and I am not sure what to think about this, but I was pretty shocked reading Mark Thomas remark here: User talk:Jortegag.

Second Montenegrin Misplaced Pages proposal

I have started up a second proposal on the Montenegrin Misplaced Pages, I think it should be time to restart it. If you want to vote, the link is: http://meta.wikimedia.org/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Montenegrin_2

Just wanted to let you know. Thanks again.

Request

Could you please delete my userpage and talkpage?--Hadžija 05:14, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Please delete it all, I'm leaving Misplaced Pages (again :)).--Hadžija 01:37, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

What's the problem man?--Hadžija 04:56, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, but could you lock them as well? I wouldn't want any User:Bosniak types editing it.--Hadžija 19:03, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

My user name

Exactly HOW is my user name "AwfulTurkey" offensive? It is in no way a violation of any rule. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Awful Turkey (talk • contribs)

The name was never meant to be offensive to the country of Turkey. I have used it since I made an account here and not once has anyone been offended by it. I could understand if my username was something vulgar like F***Turkey how that would be offensive and NEED to be changed.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Awful Turkey (talk • contribs)

Answered on your talk page. --Asterion 22:01, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

User:Bosniak again?

I'd appreciate a second opinion, as not completely familiar with his editing patterns. See Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Bosniak again? Thanks, Asterion 18:58, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

I responded on AN/I; I think there's sufficient evidence here to justify a checkuser. -- Jim Douglas _(contribs) 19:31, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations on being nothing but a stuck-up bully.

You're nothing but a stuck-up bully. You didn't follow up on the false AIV complaint against RunedChozo at all, you just wanted to smack someone around and you found an easy target, and now you're gloating about it. You should be de-adminned. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.178.235.28 (talk) 01:33, 26 January 2007 (UTC).

ZakuSage still at it

See ; it's up to you, but I'd block him for a week too, if I were an admin today... Georgewilliamherbert 01:36, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

huh. Nevermind. I misread the timestamp; that was before Runed got blocked... My bad. Zaku seems to have been quiet recently. Georgewilliamherbert 01:43, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

As opposed to the other guy (see above). Asterion 02:39, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
