I don't know if you noticed or not, but two different users gave him a last warning and he most certainly did vandalize after the first one. This is an IP that just started posting today, and of the 150ish edits he made, myself or another user has had to revert all but one. This is certainly a vandal!

Not being British, at first I thought someone had misspelled Laraine Newman's name. :-)
Hmm ... no one ever asked this woman to prove she was who she said she was. Since there's been no edits in over a month, it probably won't be an issue, and I suppose you're right about the abandonment (I didn't know we had a length-of-time rule to consider an account abandoned).
I suppose if she wants to come back again she can ask for unblock. Billing it as a precautionary step isn't a bad idea. Not how I would have done it, but not wrong either. Daniel Case ( talk) 04:21, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi! I suspect that this page ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Dogs_Go_to_Heaven_2) has been vandalized by a non-registered user over the last few days. He/She replaced the original text with a spoof of The Lord of the Rings. Since I do not have a great command of Wikipedia rules and all, and that you are an administrator, could you take charge of this problem or ask someone who could block the vandal or something? I didn't reverse the article to the original so as to keep evidence. Thanks in advance! Gégène ( talk) 00:33, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
No problem, if I believe someone did a great job then I will give him/her a barnstar to show their ability to do hard work. Actually I wanted them to be deleted and if you didn't delete that I would surely go towards other admin to delete those revisions. I was glad that you did that very quickly, thanks for that. After I started with Huggle lately, then I have received some attacks and vandalism both on my user page (which is indef semi-protected) and also on talk page.

Hello sir,
I have written an article regarding a company (Clariter S.A).
The article was submitted to wikipedia and was rejected due to supposed violation of copyrights and commercial content, and I was asked to fix it and resubmit.
Since my computer has crashed, I did not get the chance to work on the correction the you asked me to do.
Today, as I entered Wikipedia and hoped to work on the content in order discovered it was deleted entirely and the page i am directed to, where all your comments were written, was erased.
I have no other record of my work (since another admin erased my sandbox for some reason) and thus cannot make the appropriate changes to the article and resubmit it.
I wanted to ask you whether you could restore the page so I could conduct the required changes in order for the article to be qualified.
Thank you for your time.

Have you read the Wikipedia's policy? I note that Wikipedia:Vandalism states that 'vandalism' is "any addition, removal, or change of content in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia". Do you consider edits to user_talk pages pointing out questionable heuristic actions by ClueBot to constitute the compromise of the integrity of Wikpiedia? If you consider that this is the case, and are completely intellectually honest, I suggest that you visit this page. 222.155.201.232 ( talk) 22:28, 22 February 2013 (UTC) Got any real arguments besides baiting legitimate editors to violate 3RR bro? 222.155.201.232 ( talk) 22:43, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Hey, hope you're well. I was just wondering if you could take a look at the history of Priya Kapoor, do you think the page needs protecting for a couple of weeks?

I believe the IPs that are adding the unsourced info to Priya's article and the cast list mostly belong to Gillyh. - JuneGloom Talk 22:17, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
Hey 5 albert square; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so.

There is a professional wrestler by the name of Melanie Cruise now Melanie Cruise redirects to Shimmer Women Athletes. Since the Melanie Cruise page is protected, I can't update the redirect to the correct page Melanie Cruise (wrestler). Plus "wrestler" doesn't need to be in the article title. So you either update the redirect or move the "Melanie Cruise (wrestler)" page to "Melanie Cruise. Either is fine.

Hello, As you may recall, as a first time editor here on Wikipedia, I have been trying to make a constructive edit for two weeks on the Jack the Ripper article page but now the controlling editors are just getting silly. It has become obvious they have no intention to consider the edit for no clear reasons or based on any evidence.
You mentioned I could approach you for direction in what happens now. I have asked Moxy, who has been assisting me with submitting a revised edit proposal, for assistance to proceed with a request for some effective mediation as the situation is deteriorating over one sentence.
Could you please further advise me when appropriate on the best way forward to my contributing to a Wikipedia article?
Thanks 27.99.102.172 ( talk) 16:02, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your prompt response and advice. However, I find that process far too convoluted to become involved in for what may be a similar outcome. My view is that 'consensus' on Wikipedia is achieved by intimidation with little reasonable redress for new editors or points of evidence; ordinary people who are powerless under current protocol in the face of entrenched and recalcitrant editors. At least that is my experience on this particular article in a vain attempt to contribute in some small way.
I would rather say this all to someone who actually handles complaints on Wikipedia but it seems that any redress is not available for what in the end is contributing content to a website. But I can assure you that unfortunately this article will remain non-neutral on a point of documented history because of a few misinformed and myopic individuals who cannot be contained by current protocol.
Thank you again for your time.

Thanks for uploading File:Neighbours new logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:21, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

This information is not mentioned in the prose and if you actually looked at the links in regards to the home media you will find that the information I provided is available. If this topic is deleted again I will report the both of you the information is correct and relevant, why are you both trying to obstruct this information. Most of the sources material is no longer around anyway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.176.103.150 ( talk) 11:59, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
“though not mine", oh, I am sorry I wasn't aware that the Wikipedia page for a television programme belonged to an individual. I can’t understand why you deleted this table, the information provided about the “Neighbours – Home Media” area provides nothing but a whole bunch of fluff. For the first time the series is getting released on DVD and the public have the right to know what episodes are on these DVD’s the four mentioned sourced websites provide nothing about the release other than a picture of the DVD and the catalogue number and further to that link [186] has even been taken down. Although both you and “JuneGloom07” are correct in saying the information I provided isn’t sourced, you can’t find this information on any website but it is 100% correct as I have mentioned before I have ownership of this collection. That entirely aside you have placed so many unnecessary links across the whole page especially when it comes to the international broadcasting section. Most Wiki pages would have a table to display which countries aired it and when. Rather you just have countless links and two poorly worded paragraphs. Looking through the history of this page you and “JuneGloom07” have had so many contributions from people but most of it was been reversed. The purpose of a Wiki is to have a WIP encyclopaedia if the information provided is found incorrect it should be removed however, if it is providing further detailed information that is correct it should be left alone and not removed by two individuals who seem to be running a police state. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JMLAUS ( talk • contribs) 23:58, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
If I created a separate page away from the main section, would you link it so people can have the option to see specific details of these releases? I can see where you are coming from if they released the “whole” series but let’s be honest it would take years before that would happen and having a five lined table doesn’t detract from the main page but I’m happy to compromise with it to a certain extent. You’re right in saying it’s obvious that it is “From the Beginning” but Shock haven’t disclosed which episodes are on each volume, there is no information anywhere on the internet detailing this and besides volume 1 which says “the first 56 episodes” the other don’t tell you this. I guess the benefit of having a separate page could also provide more details on the other past releases.

So I've been threatening for a while, but now I'm determined — there's going to be a Wikipedia meetup in Newcastle. Do you know a decent pub (something like a Wetherspoon's—family friendly, serves food, good beer, WiFi) within easy reach of the train station?

Hi 5 albert square; I don't know if the continuing introduction of this article constitutes vandalism over previous redirects (including the properly capitalized version), or merely an IP sock of a blocked account, but it may be worth a look.

Hi! I suspect that this page ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Dogs_Go_to_Heaven_2) has been vandalized by a non-registered user over the last few days. He/She replaced the original text with a spoof of The Lord of the Rings. Since I do not have a great command of Wikipedia rules and all, and that you are an administrator, could you take charge of this problem or ask someone who could block the vandal or something? I didn't reverse the article to the original so as to keep evidence. Thanks in advance! Gégène ( talk) 00:33, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
No problem, if I believe someone did a great job then I will give him/her a barnstar to show their ability to do hard work. Actually I wanted them to be deleted and if you didn't delete that I would surely go towards other admin to delete those revisions. I was glad that you did that very quickly, thanks for that. After I started with Huggle lately, then I have received some attacks and vandalism both on my user page (which is indef semi-protected) and also on talk page.

Hello sir,
I have written an article regarding a company (Clariter S.A).
The article was submitted to wikipedia and was rejected due to supposed violation of copyrights and commercial content, and I was asked to fix it and resubmit.
Since my computer has crashed, I did not get the chance to work on the correction the you asked me to do.
Today, as I entered Wikipedia and hoped to work on the content in order discovered it was deleted entirely and the page i am directed to, where all your comments were written, was erased.
I have no other record of my work (since another admin erased my sandbox for some reason) and thus cannot make the appropriate changes to the article and resubmit it.
I wanted to ask you whether you could restore the page so I could conduct the required changes in order for the article to be qualified.
Thank you for your time.

5 albert square, I see that you remedied a problem with Talk:Saint Peter's Peacocks football appearing on every run of Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/College football articles by quality log by deleting and recreating the talk page. I have requested the same for Talk:St. John's Red Storm football and Talk:Siena Saints football, both suffering from the same problem. Another admin seems to be at a loss for why I requested this.

Hi.
Piriczki user has reverted the article Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?. I moved some phrases to other part of article, because they are linked with a plagiarism issue. This edit claimed it was inaccuarate, but he can't prove his point of view. Rolling Stone magazine, Songfacts and Spinner support my view. Could you warn the user about his abuse (or ask for an administrator to do it?

Have you read the Wikipedia's policy? I note that Wikipedia:Vandalism states that 'vandalism' is "any addition, removal, or change of content in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia". Do you consider edits to user_talk pages pointing out questionable heuristic actions by ClueBot to constitute the compromise of the integrity of Wikpiedia? If you consider that this is the case, and are completely intellectually honest, I suggest that you visit this page. 222.155.201.232 ( talk) 22:28, 22 February 2013 (UTC) Got any real arguments besides baiting legitimate editors to violate 3RR bro? 222.155.201.232 ( talk) 22:43, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Hey, hope you're well. I was just wondering if you could take a look at the history of Priya Kapoor, do you think the page needs protecting for a couple of weeks?

I believe the IPs that are adding the unsourced info to Priya's article and the cast list mostly belong to Gillyh. - JuneGloom Talk 22:17, 10 March 2013 (UTC)

There is a professional wrestler by the name of Melanie Cruise now Melanie Cruise redirects to Shimmer Women Athletes. Since the Melanie Cruise page is protected, I can't update the redirect to the correct page Melanie Cruise (wrestler). Plus "wrestler" doesn't need to be in the article title. So you either update the redirect or move the "Melanie Cruise (wrestler)" page to "Melanie Cruise. Either is fine.

Hello, As you may recall, as a first time editor here on Wikipedia, I have been trying to make a constructive edit for two weeks on the Jack the Ripper article page but now the controlling editors are just getting silly. It has become obvious they have no intention to consider the edit for no clear reasons or based on any evidence.
You mentioned I could approach you for direction in what happens now. I have asked Moxy, who has been assisting me with submitting a revised edit proposal, for assistance to proceed with a request for some effective mediation as the situation is deteriorating over one sentence.
Could you please further advise me when appropriate on the best way forward to my contributing to a Wikipedia article?
Thanks 27.99.102.172 ( talk) 16:02, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your prompt response and advice. However, I find that process far too convoluted to become involved in for what may be a similar outcome. My view is that 'consensus' on Wikipedia is achieved by intimidation with little reasonable redress for new editors or points of evidence; ordinary people who are powerless under current protocol in the face of entrenched and recalcitrant editors. At least that is my experience on this particular article in a vain attempt to contribute in some small way.
I would rather say this all to someone who actually handles complaints on Wikipedia but it seems that any redress is not available for what in the end is contributing content to a website. But I can assure you that unfortunately this article will remain non-neutral on a point of documented history because of a few misinformed and myopic individuals who cannot be contained by current protocol.
Thank you again for your time.

Thanks for uploading File:Neighbours new logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:21, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

This information is not mentioned in the prose and if you actually looked at the links in regards to the home media you will find that the information I provided is available. If this topic is deleted again I will report the both of you the information is correct and relevant, why are you both trying to obstruct this information. Most of the sources material is no longer around anyway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.176.103.150 ( talk) 11:59, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
“though not mine", oh, I am sorry I wasn't aware that the Wikipedia page for a television programme belonged to an individual. I can’t understand why you deleted this table, the information provided about the “Neighbours – Home Media” area provides nothing but a whole bunch of fluff. For the first time the series is getting released on DVD and the public have the right to know what episodes are on these DVD’s the four mentioned sourced websites provide nothing about the release other than a picture of the DVD and the catalogue number and further to that link [186] has even been taken down. Although both you and “JuneGloom07” are correct in saying the information I provided isn’t sourced, you can’t find this information on any website but it is 100% correct as I have mentioned before I have ownership of this collection. That entirely aside you have placed so many unnecessary links across the whole page especially when it comes to the international broadcasting section. Most Wiki pages would have a table to display which countries aired it and when. Rather you just have countless links and two poorly worded paragraphs. Looking through the history of this page you and “JuneGloom07” have had so many contributions from people but most of it was been reversed. The purpose of a Wiki is to have a WIP encyclopaedia if the information provided is found incorrect it should be removed however, if it is providing further detailed information that is correct it should be left alone and not removed by two individuals who seem to be running a police state. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JMLAUS ( talk • contribs) 23:58, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
If I created a separate page away from the main section, would you link it so people can have the option to see specific details of these releases? I can see where you are coming from if they released the “whole” series but let’s be honest it would take years before that would happen and having a five lined table doesn’t detract from the main page but I’m happy to compromise with it to a certain extent. You’re right in saying it’s obvious that it is “From the Beginning” but Shock haven’t disclosed which episodes are on each volume, there is no information anywhere on the internet detailing this and besides volume 1 which says “the first 56 episodes” the other don’t tell you this. I guess the benefit of having a separate page could also provide more details on the other past releases.

So I've been threatening for a while, but now I'm determined — there's going to be a Wikipedia meetup in Newcastle. Do you know a decent pub (something like a Wetherspoon's—family friendly, serves food, good beer, WiFi) within easy reach of the train station? Then I just need a date—it has to be a Saturday or a Sunday and I'm thinking mid-to-late August might work best (but the second Sunday of the month is reserved for London and we have to try to avoid clashes with these).
