Jack-A-Roe is taking a semi-wikibreak and will fully return to Misplaced Pages later.

Welcome to Jack-A-Roe's talk page. I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article's talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or let me know where specifically you'd prefer the reply.

Banned editor continuing to come back to Misplaced Pages partly to harass

User:Raven in Orbit was banned from Misplaced Pages due to his consistent defamatory accusations about fellow Wikipedians -- calling editors pedophiles and pedo-pushers, all because he does not grasp the difference between it and ephebophilia (for whatever mind-boggling reason). He additionally has a specific "hate on" for me, as though I am some pedophile, despite my contributions to the Pedophilia article and comments on its talk page clearly showing that I am in no way a pedophile and am very much against pedophiles. You already know that my edits to that article and talk page have consistently combated actual pedophile-pushers. This does not matter to Raven in Orbit, though, seeing as he treats me as a pedophile villain.

Though Raven in Orbit was banned from Misplaced Pages, he has come back to harass me twice now. Once seen in this link, which was reverted by Legitimus (also seen in that link), and now more recently in a discussion on my talk page (which administrator LessHeard vanU happened to be involved in). I see that he has even edited his user page to state defamatory remarks about why he left Misplaced Pages.

What should I do about this person in regards to Misplaced Pages? Luckily, I have not experienced any email harassment from him. If I have, I missed it. But I could stop the email harassment if that was going on. There does not seem to be anything that I can do to stop this harassment regarding Misplaced Pages. But as I stated to Legitimus, "I am beyond tired of this troll, even though I have not heard from him in months. I do not take well whatsoever to being called a pedophile or a pedophile-pusher."

Any help you can offer on this matter would be much appreciated by me. Flyer22 (talk) 23:53, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

I took the matter to Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents; it seemed to be the best place to take it out of the other options given by Misplaced Pages. Flyer22 (talk) 00:35, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi Flyer - yes, I remember that user. It's very annoying to see those comments. He doesn't get it all, your work is exactly the opposite of what he wrote! It looks like from the ANI report that this has been handled OK. If you need any further help, please let me know. Hope you're having a good holiday season. --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 01:55, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Well, as you may have seen, he is currently bad-mouthing me on his talk page, but I can handle it. The administrator is not taking his bad-mouth comments seriously either, other than in regards to why he should remain blocked. As I recently stated on my talk page to Legitimus, it stings being called a pedophile. I can get through this, though, just like I did last time. I'm thinking that this user should be restricted from commenting on his talk page, as it is clear that he is going to continue trashing me and others.

I hope that your holiday season is going well also. We all know how stressful Misplaced Pages can be. If anyone deserves a good break from all this chaos, that anyone is you. And thank you for caring. Flyer22 (talk) 02:24, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

mediation notification

A request for formal mediation of the dispute concerning Orgasmic_meditation has been filed with the Mediation Committee (MedCom). You have been named as a party in this request. Please review the request at Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Orgasmic_meditation and then indicate in the "Party agreement" section whether you would agree to participate in the mediation or not.

Mediation is a process where a group of editors in disagreement over matters of article content are guided through discussing the issues of the dispute (and towards developing a resolution) by an uninvolved editor experienced with handling disputes (the mediator). The process is voluntary and is designed for parties who disagree in good faith and who share a common desire to resolve their differences. Further information on the MedCom is at Misplaced Pages:Mediation Committee; the policy the Committee will work by whilst handling your dispute is at Misplaced Pages:Mediation Committee/Policy; further information on Misplaced Pages's policy on resolving disagreements is at Misplaced Pages:Resolving disputes.

If you would be willing to participate in the mediation of this dispute but wish for its scope to be adjusted then you may propose on the case talk page amendments or additions to the list of issues to be mediated. Any queries or concerns that you have may be directed to an active mediator of the Committee or by e-mailing the MedCom's private mailing list (click here for details).

Please indicate on the case page your agreement to participate in the mediation within seven days of the request's submission.

Thank you, Voila-pourquoi (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:20, 11 January 2010 (UTC).

Sorry, but I had to decline the mediation. That's not the correct forum for your concern, as I noted on the mediation talk page. If you do want a formal venue for your question, AfD would be the place. The term is used by no-one outside of the organization, other than a mention in a couple pop-culture newspaper articles describing the organization's activities. It's just not a notable term. You've had months to look for sources and not found any. So why push to keep the article separate? --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 05:11, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

just to be clear, my research had revealed 3 new sources -- Grazia magazine, New York Post, and the book "Thanks for coming" -- making a total of 8 sources for this article. Several of those sources are being questioned or deleted on the article now by an editor who supports the merge. I would really appreciate if you could tell me how to bring this question to the venue of AfD -- short of nominating the article for deletion myself. There is currently no discussion on AfD concerning this proposed merger. Thank you. Voila-pourquoi (talk) 11:18, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your note. I don't have time to reply right now, but I will post some info for you when I can get the time. --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 01:09, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Paidika: The Journal of Paedophilia

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Paidika: The Journal of Paedophilia. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Misplaced Pages:Notability and "What Misplaced Pages is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Paidika: The Journal of Paedophilia. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:07, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Archives of some moves pages

Copied from Misplaced Pages:Requested moves

• Talk:Pro-pedophile activism/Archive 1 → Talk:Pedophile movement/Archive 1 (move) — Talk page archives got disconnected from the talk page during a page move last year. I was able to fix all of them manually, but one of the pages could not be corrected because it already had a redirect. Jack-A-Roe (talk) 23:13, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
  • On further review - I apologize if this caused any extra work, but think I might have created a problem with those subpages when I tried to clean up the links after the initial page move. The first time, the page was moved (rather than merged), so I moved the talk page with it. But then after that, it was merged (with a redirect) to a page that already had content so the talk page did not get moved. Later, a bot updated the double-redirect, so now the page title that has the talk page (and archives) is not linked from anywhere. I don't have experience with this kind of situation and don't know how to fix it. Thanks for your help. --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 23:28, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
    • Here is an idea that might keep this simple and still effective: if the first archive page is moved (per the initial request above), it will then be together with all the others. A link could be posted at the top of the talk page of the old article location, at Talk:Pro-pedophile activism, noting that the talk page and complete archives have been moved to Talk:Pedophile movement. That would create a complete link-trail for anyone wanting to follow the discussions. There might be a better technical solution, but if not, I think that would work OK and would avoid the work of moving multiple talk page archives back to the original location. Just a thought, I hope it's helpful. --Jack-A-Roe (talk) 01:24, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

• Page Pedophile movement is redirected to Age of consent reform. I have put in Talk:Age of consent reform an info section pointing to these archive pages. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 07:17, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
