Thanks for the work you have been doing on assessing school articles. You recently assessed a pair that I had some involvement with, and I am appreciative of the work, effort, and suggestions that you made. Best of luck on your continued work! LonelyBeacon ( talk) 01:18, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for your assessment of the Bridlewood Community Elementary School article. Your suggestions will help me improve the article further and hopefully help it attain B-class status. Thanks again, -- Patar knight - chat/ contributions 19:20, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but is it possible to lock the talk page too. Because he's hijacked that now. I know it doesn't allow IP's to contribute, but we're in a bind. Lihaas ( talk) 14:14, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I wanted to notice you that the IP editor who made changes without consensus on the 2008 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season page is back (and he also vandalized a couple of race report articles). You may want to take a look and maybe protect the page once again. Asendoh ( talk) 11:25, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Me and Sims2 have sort of started a drive to get Eurovision articles to either GA status or DYKs or both. We are taking one article at a time and improving. Just thought I'd let you know if you had time to join the effort and expand one of them. I think we should get all 2008s up to near GA if not GA.

Camaron,
I need some advice on dealing with a particularly difficult anon editor ( User talk:130.127.230.139). He has deleted previous blocks and warnings, including a pair of what I thought were kind requests left on his talk page. IP tagged as Clemson University (also deleted).
The issue is mostly over the inclusion of a referenced statement in the article St. Rita of Cascia High School. The statement is POV about the school's conference, but is referenced to a coach from the same conference. I have zero doubt: the reference isn't reliable because the person is making a claim about their own organization. the anon in insists on keeping it, I disagree. The editor has made many smart aleck comments, but not enough to really cross the personal attack line, and I have not responded.
I could use some advice on how to proceed. LonelyBeacon ( talk) 22:35, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi there. I've been considering requesting rollback rights over the last few weeks, and have decided that it would be a good idea for me. I generally use Twinkle at home, but when i edit from work (tsk!), I can't use it as I have to use IE. Consequently, I think that rollback would help my vandalism fights enormously. I went throught the admin list and saw that you consider rollback requests, and as I know you (via the ongoing IP vandal on the MotoGP articles and User:Asendoh) thought that you would be a good place to start. I've had a good read of the rollback guideline pages, and I think that my contributions demonstrate my understanding of the vandalism an innappropriate edits concept. Hopefully you agree! Regards, -- Ged UK ( talk) 08:34, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
I wonder if you could help with a page move which requires admin assistance. I created a new article for Delhi Public School, Matura Road but mistakenly missed out the H from Mathura in the title. I've now tried to move the article to the existing redirect page at Delhi Public School, Mathura Road but the system won't let me make the move without admin assistance. Many thanks.

1) You're yet to prove your sources, while I have proved mine. See discussion page. I will continue reverting this stupidity, that is bringing whole Wikipedia article down in accuracy and reliability. 2) 3RR rule is about 24-hours period, and it was not violated. 3) I will have to add negative comment to your editor review, if you continue to be one-sided, stick to one source, and failing to prove your position.

The user just added the information for the fifth time. I reverted for my third so I'm done. Also the ip notice is wrong, ips provided through a cable provider do not change; usually only DSL does.

CT Cooper, I would like to thank you for your participation in my recent Request for Adminship, which passed with 112 supports, 4 opposes and 5 neutrals. A special mention goes out to Stwalkerster and Pedro for nominating me, thanks a lot for having trust in me! In response to the neutrals, I will try to double check articles that have been tagged for speedy deletion before I CSD them and will start off slowly with the drama boards of ANI and AN to ensure that I get used to them. In response to the oppose !votes on my RfA, I will check that any images I use meet the non-free content criteria and will attempt to handle any disputes or queries as well as I can. If you need my help at all, feel free to simply ask at my talk page and I'll see if I can help.

Hello, I noticed you were an admin and a part of Wikiproject Eurovision so I decided to ask about this. I've seen on the Eurovision Song Contest 2009 article that there is a message to editors saying not to add any information without a reliable source.

I notice that you are listed on: Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles.
I am requesting 5 deleted articles to be userfied, pretty, pretty please :):
From: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2008 November 15
You can move all 5 pages to a userspace, lets say User:Ikip/Www1, with the history intact (I am interested in who created the article, and when).
I really appreciate it. You are probably wondering why I ask. Well, I have spent the past few weeks on a graph found here: User:Ikip/AfD on average day. I am interested in what type of user gets their page deleted, etc....November 15 is just a day pulled out of a hat by another user.

I had requested that the protection be lifted from article on Wael Kfoury. My initial comment said:
This was protected because of repeated action to create the page. But the attempts were first on November 1, 2005 and the last on 22 August 2007. Protection isn't supposed to be a permanent measure. Prohibiting a Wikipedia article on a hugely significant performer such as Wael Kfoury is simply a result of a couple of unknown contributor with no registered Wikipedia names trying to create it repeatedly... I am applying for "unprotection" here. You may allow only established editors to be able to edit, and prohibit anonymous contributors. That would be perfectly acceptable. werldwayd (talk) 03:56, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

You had responded as follows:
Not unprotected - Please make an established/appropriate version of this article in your user space and then re-request unprotection here. This appears to covered under WP:BLP so caution must be given. Camaron | Chris (talk) 11:01, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Chris, After your request, now I have prepared a proposed draft of what the article would look like: My comments left on the page says on the Requests for Protection/Unprotection page:
Thanks for the comments. Based on those, now I present a suggested text for re-creating a page in English language Wikipedia on Wael Kfoury. You can find it at this link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Werldwayd werldwayd (talk)

Moving opposing opinions to where they cannot be seen is -not- keeping in the spirit of the article talk pages being a neutral place for discussion about the article. Attempting to argue otherwise is deeply disingenuous. Yet this is exactly what Wikidemon did. You ought to be ashamed for defending his doing so..- 32.164.131.11 ( talk) 17:46, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
It's easy to be self-righteous and duplicitous when you've got the power to keep anyone who disagrees with you from speaking. All you've convinced people of is that you aren't afraid to abuse your admin powers. As I said before, you should be ashamed of yourself. I'm not the one gaming the system here. I've got no power to game. As I pointed out before, you've turned a blind eye to Wikidemon making personal attacks such. as "tendentious", "disruptive", and comments that other editors aren't acting in good faith, you've ignored the fact that he has a long history of personal conflicts throughout Wikipedia and and that I was working on this article peacefully when he wasn't around. You've ignored the fact that he was working to prevent the article talk page from being used for it's intended purpose, and you've glossed over that despite all of this, from the very beginning you've singled me out. So, perhaps it's too much to expect you to admit that you've never assumed good faith in me. 166.198.109.18 ( talk) 22:43, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
I -have- been using the talk pages appropriately. I stopped making personal attacks a long time ago while others continued. I didn't game the system by removing other points of view. Just because you've got admin powers doesn't make you right.- 166.199.173.225 ( talk) 08:42, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Dear Camaron I appreciate your wonderful contribution to Dharmaraja College Wiki ( [4]). I am the president of Dharmaraja College Archives which is the official repoistory of the college. Since our college is 122 years old, information about early days is limited and also because we did not have any mecahnism to preserve information before 2002 (Establishment of the College Archives). Now I see the wiki is growing up.
I had the idea to have a separate wiki blog of our own (not in Wikipedia) as we are trying to collect all the minute details including information of every student. I do not think Wiki allows to have such a vast repository. I need your advise on this.
Secondly I saw you have deleted some links including Archives Link to limit the list. But I prefer to have exisiting links as there are not many. I think Archives link is a must as it directs to all the detailed infromation. Rajans' Mountaineering group is one web site you leave which is similar to a groups one you deleted.

Cam, First off, I hope your exams all went well.
Second, there is an editor, User: EagleFan who has been making some pretty unilateral decisions about school articles. Some of the edits are a matter of opinions, but despite a lack of consensus, he has been doing them. I suppose that's his right, but I'm not sure it makes for the best of community decision making when the editor claims "I think it looks better" and "in the absence of consensus, I will continue", while a discussion is ongoing. Yesterday, he started making a tour of the high school articles, resetting their importance ratings to "Low" in the Schools project box. Some of these articles had been ranked "Mid", and some of them hadn't been ranked, but had lists of referenced notable alumni a mile long. I inquired at his talk page as to why he was doing this, and he basically implied that colleges are mid to high, and high schools are not. It was a unilateral decision on his part. What prompted me to come to you was his change in assessment at Fenwick High School (Oak Park, Illinois). You had personally rated this as a high importance article, and he reset it to low. You had a clear reason for your assessment. I am concerned because his unilateral actions are going to take a lot of time to reset in the future. I have resisted over the last month or so to revert any of his edits to avoid an edit war, but I have to tell you that the temptation to revert is getting more and more difficult.

Cameron,
I'm writing with regards to the Big 4 section in the main Eurovision Song Contest article. I found information about Italy being apart of a "Big 5", and also several websites which can back this information up, all of which come under the WikiProject Eurovision as reliable sources. I added this information to the main Eurovision Song Contest article as I feel it supplies valid encyclopaedic information to readers doing any research into Eurovision via the Wikipedia site. However, one user keeps removing the text (which I added in my own words), and has since started to dispute the fact that this information about Italy shouldn't be included in the Eurovision Song Contest article. They say that as Italy haven't participated in a long time that the information is pointless - but I disagree with this. The wording for this information mentions that "Eurovision Executive Svante Stockselius confirmed that Italy is a part of a Big 5 if they were to return to the contest, however since Italy haven't participated since the 1997 Contest they have yet to use their Big 5 status". I was wondering if you could help in this dispute, so that some sort of resolution can be arranged between users in question, and also WikiProject Eurovision members. Do you agree that this information about Italy should be included using the wording as shown above in bold/italics? I look forward to your reply. Kindest Regards. (Gareth Pr3st0n ( talk) 14:04, 1 July 2009 (UTC)) P.S. Please could you inform me how to archive things in my talk page area, as I'm unsure how to do this, and it would come in handy to help tidy up my talk page. Gratefully appreciated. (Gareth Pr3st0n ( talk) 14:08, 1 July 2009 (UTC))
Hi Camaron. I've launched a clean up assault on these articles and brought them all from an utter mess to a bunch of coherent articles. It appears you deleted 2005 Women's Islamic Games as gibberish. I presume this is a similar kind of raw text I've converted for the rest of the articles. If so, do you fancy restoring it so I can clean that one up too? Frankly, I'm amazed that several editors added categories and dabbed links without flagging these articles for clean up!

Camaron,
I need some advice on dealing with a particularly difficult anon editor ( User talk:130.127.230.139). He has deleted previous blocks and warnings, including a pair of what I thought were kind requests left on his talk page. IP tagged as Clemson University (also deleted).
The issue is mostly over the inclusion of a referenced statement in the article St. Rita of Cascia High School. The statement is POV about the school's conference, but is referenced to a coach from the same conference. I have zero doubt: the reference isn't reliable because the person is making a claim about their own organization. the anon in insists on keeping it, I disagree. The editor has made many smart aleck comments, but not enough to really cross the personal attack line, and I have not responded.
I could use some advice on how to proceed. LonelyBeacon ( talk) 22:35, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi there. I've been considering requesting rollback rights over the last few weeks, and have decided that it would be a good idea for me. I generally use Twinkle at home, but when i edit from work (tsk!), I can't use it as I have to use IE. Consequently, I think that rollback would help my vandalism fights enormously. I went throught the admin list and saw that you consider rollback requests, and as I know you (via the ongoing IP vandal on the MotoGP articles and User:Asendoh) thought that you would be a good place to start. I've had a good read of the rollback guideline pages, and I think that my contributions demonstrate my understanding of the vandalism an innappropriate edits concept. Hopefully you agree! Regards, -- Ged UK ( talk) 08:34, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

I had requested that the protection be lifted from article on Wael Kfoury. My initial comment said:
This was protected because of repeated action to create the page. But the attempts were first on November 1, 2005 and the last on 22 August 2007. Protection isn't supposed to be a permanent measure. Prohibiting a Wikipedia article on a hugely significant performer such as Wael Kfoury is simply a result of a couple of unknown contributor with no registered Wikipedia names trying to create it repeatedly... I am applying for "unprotection" here. You may allow only established editors to be able to edit, and prohibit anonymous contributors. That would be perfectly acceptable. werldwayd (talk) 03:56, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Attempting to argue otherwise is deeply disingenuous. Yet this is exactly what Wikidemon did. You ought to be ashamed for defending his doing so..- 32.164.131.11 ( talk) 17:46, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
It's easy to be self-righteous and duplicitous when you've got the power to keep anyone who disagrees with you from speaking. All you've convinced people of is that you aren't afraid to abuse your admin powers. As I said before, you should be ashamed of yourself. I'm not the one gaming the system here. I've got no power to game. As I pointed out before, you've turned a blind eye to Wikidemon making personal attacks such. as "tendentious", "disruptive", and comments that other editors aren't acting in good faith, you've ignored the fact that he has a long history of personal conflicts throughout Wikipedia and and that I was working on this article peacefully when he wasn't around. You've ignored the fact that he was working to prevent the article talk page from being used for it's intended purpose, and you've glossed over that despite all of this, from the very beginning you've singled me out. So, perhaps it's too much to expect you to admit that you've never assumed good faith in me. 166.198.109.18 ( talk) 22:43, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
I -have- been using the talk pages appropriately. I stopped making personal attacks a long time ago while others continued. I didn't game the system by removing other points of view. Just because you've got admin powers doesn't make you right.- 166.199.173.225 ( talk) 08:42, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Dear Camaron I appreciate your wonderful contribution to Dharmaraja College Wiki ( [4]). I am the president of Dharmaraja College Archives which is the official repoistory of the college. Since our college is 122 years old, information about early days is limited and also because we did not have any mecahnism to preserve information before 2002 (Establishment of the College Archives). Now I see the wiki is growing up.
I had the idea to have a separate wiki blog of our own (not in Wikipedia) as we are trying to collect all the minute details including information of every student. I do not think Wiki allows to have such a vast repository. I need your advise on this.
Secondly I saw you have deleted some links including Archives Link to limit the list. But I prefer to have exisiting links as there are not many. I think Archives link is a must as it directs to all the detailed infromation. Rajans' Mountaineering group is one web site you leave which is similar to a groups one you deleted.

This is utterly depressing. The message I'm getting is that dispute resolution is not worth it. I'm discouraged and sad. I'm trying, very hard, to do the right thing, and I feel pissed on from all quarters. This makes me want to turn in my badge and leave. Do you understand what I'm saying, at all? - GTBacchus( talk) 15:45, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Cam, First off, I hope your exams all went well.
Second, there is an editor, User: EagleFan who has been making some pretty unilateral decisions about school articles. Some of the edits are a matter of opinions, but despite a lack of consensus, he has been doing them. I suppose that's his right, but I'm not sure it makes for the best of community decision making when the editor claims "I think it looks better" and "in the absence of consensus, I will continue", while a discussion is ongoing. Yesterday, he started making a tour of the high school articles, resetting their importance ratings to "Low" in the Schools project box. Some of these articles had been ranked "Mid", and some of them hadn't been ranked, but had lists of referenced notable alumni a mile long. I inquired at his talk page as to why he was doing this, and he basically implied that colleges are mid to high, and high schools are not. It was a unilateral decision on his part. What prompted me to come to you was his change in assessment at Fenwick High School (Oak Park, Illinois). You had personally rated this as a high importance article, and he reset it to low. You had a clear reason for your assessment. I am concerned because his unilateral actions are going to take a lot of time to reset in the future. I have resisted over the last month or so to revert any of his edits to avoid an edit war, but I have to tell you that the temptation to revert is getting more and more difficult. I will revert his change on this article (his own talk page said that he was willing to allow other editors to do so). I thought someone in your project may want to take a closer look at this.

I have concluded the reassessment and delisted the article for the Good Articles list. Reasons are at Talk:Switzerland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008/GA2. If you disagree with this decision please take it to WP:GAR. Thanks. Jezhotwells ( talk) 14:17, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi Christopher, Thank you for your helpful assessment of Amador Valley High School. I have updated the article according to all of your suggestions. I am not sure how to create a dedicated gallery page for the photos (that are now hosted on the commons), and would appreciate a link or an example. I would like to request a re-assessment of the article when you are free. Thank you. Deltawk ( talk) 23:22, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Cameron,
I'm writing with regards to the Big 4 section in the main Eurovision Song Contest article. I found information about Italy being apart of a "Big 5", and also several websites which can back this information up, all of which come under the WikiProject Eurovision as reliable sources. I added this information to the main Eurovision Song Contest article as I feel it supplies valid encyclopaedic information to readers doing any research into Eurovision via the Wikipedia site. However, one user keeps removing the text (which I added in my own words), and has since started to dispute the fact that this information about Italy shouldn't be included in the Eurovision Song Contest article. They say that as Italy haven't participated in a long time that the information is pointless - but I disagree with this. The wording for this information mentions that "Eurovision Executive Svante Stockselius confirmed that Italy is a part of a Big 5 if they were to return to the contest, however since Italy haven't participated since the 1997 Contest they have yet to use their Big 5 status". I was wondering if you could help in this dispute, so that some sort of resolution can be arranged between users in question, and also WikiProject Eurovision members. Do you agree that this information about Italy should be included using the wording as shown above in bold/italics? I look forward to your reply. Kindest Regards. (Gareth Pr3st0n ( talk) 14:04, 1 July 2009 (UTC)) P.S. Please could you inform me how to archive things in my talk page area, as I'm unsure how to do this, and it would come in handy to help tidy up my talk page. Gratefully appreciated. (Gareth Pr3st0n ( talk) 14:08, 1 July 2009 (UTC))
Hi Camaron. I've launched a clean up assault on these articles and brought them all from an utter mess to a bunch of coherent articles. It appears you deleted 2005 Women's Islamic Games as gibberish. I presume this is a similar kind of raw text I've converted for the rest of the articles. If so, do you fancy restoring it so I can clean that one up too? Frankly, I'm amazed that several editors added categories and dabbed links without flagging these articles for clean up!

I have conducted a reassessment of this article and found a large number of issues with the prose style, referencing and possible original research. There were so many that I delisted the article. These concerns can be found at Talk:San Marino in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008/GA2. Thanks. Jezhotwells ( talk) 15:38, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
I saw that you correctly declined the request earlier today to protect this article, as edit warring had died down. However, someone just reverted again, and I see the makings of a slow edit war. Could you watchlist it please? Thanks, Dabomb87 ( talk) 16:55, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi Cameron. Thank you for inviting me to the request for comment regarding reliable sources on Eurovision articles. Sorry I have not replied until now: I have been busy in my offline life. I have a couple of days off coming up very soon, and hope to spend some time on Wikipedia then. I appreciate your efforts with the Eurovision project! EuroSong talk 10:29, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
Hey Camaron. I just wanted to say that esctime is relaunching on Thursday, this is also another source that you should put on the RFC? I think it's used around the site, not much, but occasionally, like for Melodifestivalen and some NF pages. Nathan | talk 17:07, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
