Hi, I got a message saying I'd copied from a page/site created by someone else source when in fact the other source copied this text from the Acuma Incorporated website. The text on the Acuma Inc page, Acuma Inc website and the other source are all public domain anyway, but Acuma needs to have an entry of its own, so that we can add to the currently limited info available.

I found content about a current music producer (now Robert Townson (producer)) on the page about Robert Tounson, a 17th century bishop.

Hi, I'm writing to you because you had unblock user:Tajik. Tajik is causing wide scale disruption on Wikipedia, spreading racism [1], hate, propagandas, POVs, etc. These 8 edits by IP 84.59.205.77 will prove that user:Tajik is behind that IP and the sockpuppets. In this edit, he writes like User:Šāhzādé then, hourse later, in this edit he writes like User:Šāhzādé and User:Tajik combined. He writes "Le[t´s] see here"...in the beginning and then changes the style to "But despite Zalmay Khalilza[d’s]"... "Afghanista[n’s]"..."Mr. Khaliza[d’s]"... [2] To top it off, user:Tajik did this edit and wrote in the edit summary "info + sources added according to talk page", which is letting us know that it was he who wrote in the end of the talk page of Zalmay Khalilzad.

Hi,
I'm not sure if your bot has caught this before, but I just discovered that a good portion of the National Storytelling Festival page has been lifted directly from the National Storytelling Festival site. (Discovered it while doing a paper for school, actually.)
I don't usually use Wikipedia, so I don't know what the procedure for taking care of this problem would be. If you could send your bot to the page or take care of it yourself, that would be great.

Hello Coren,
You gave me some advice a couple months ago on how to avoid 3RR when dealing with disruptive editors while I was temporarily blocked. I'm on the brink of the 3RR on the John McCain presidential campaign, 2008 article and do not want to violate it again, so I'm asking for your assistance because of your previous advice to me and because you're a third party. But it has more to do with just the 3RR. I've been dealing with a disruptive editor for the past few weeks who is completely unopen to compromise, revert wars, and now is !vote counting on an RFC he started only a couple days ago, amongst other things -- and I've completely lost my patience with him. I do not believe that the disruptive editor, Commodore Sloat has been exhibiting good faith for some time during this dispute (as well as other disputes on the article, but that's neither here nor there). I've been pointing this out multiple times -- admittedly snidely and with sarcasm but my patience has been thin for a while, and he regards it as personal attacks even though there's plenty of evidence. I probably should've asked for assistance sooner, but better late than never, and I'm now officially convinced that there's no appeasing csloat because he has no intention of being appeased or reaching consensus.
As I said, this is related to the John McCain presidential campaign, 2008 article, particularly the World opinion subsection. This was a section that I created as part of an enhancement effort after the election, but it was also part of compromise to a major content dispute related to an edit that csloat made which was ultimately reformatted, reduced, and moved to the end World Opinion section. Everyone from both sides of the argument over exclusion/inclusion of the material supported the compromise, except csloat. Shortly afterward, he aimed most of his interest at the rest of the World Opinion section, focusing on removing content related to polling data about world disinterest in the election. But this isn't a content dispute (or just a content dispute, rather), this is about disruptive behavior both in editing and discussion.
First and foremost, I believe there is simply no appeasing him. I've made numerous compromises, and he has made absolutely none. This is best illustrated by comparing my original version and my most recent version. Here's a list of the compromises I've made:
As for Csloat, he hasn't made any compromises. All he's done is remove content and claim that I'm drawing conclusions outside of source material and distorting data. Here's the diff of his first edit/content removal where he pastes over data displaying various countries' disinterest towards the election with a redundant quote (all the information was already in the section's lede paragraph). Here's the diff from his most recent edit/content removal, and here's all that's changed:
CSloat came up with multiple reasons that my contribution was against policy. The accusations would come iteratively as each subsequent accusation was either disproved or addressed, and the accusations got more far-reaching each time -- to the point where his complaint had no valid basis in any Wikipedia policy or guideline. Here's how it unfolded:
So now, he's just saying that he simply doesn't like it. His most recent post to the RFC said that there are still "multiple issues" even though he didn't bother to list any, and that I have no more valid points.
But it's more than just his overt resistance to compromise and the various reasons he's come up with for exclusion. During the dispute, when he was on the brink of violating the 3RR rule, he instead placed a totally-disputed tag on my version of the World opinion subsection multiple times; since this was obviously not true and was clearly way too severe a tag, I regarded it as vandalism and removed it each time. During his countless reverts, in the edit summaries he'd often put "per talk", claim his edit was the "consensus" when the dispute was between just us two, claim his edit was "preferred" when again it was just us two, and claim my edits were "disruptive" when his edits were the ones removing content. The last straw was an RFC that he started, with a very slanted paragraph explaining the issue. After two days and only two other opinions voiced, he counted !votes and declared consensus and unilaterally reapplied his revert -- and this was only sixteen hours after my latest version which addresses all of his stated concerns. It became evident at this point that he was not interested in compromise or consensus, he simply wanted my contribution excluded and intended to count !vote as a basis for the exclusion.
The problem is, now one the people who expressed an opinion in the RFC is engaging in the reverting as well. I don't think this person is a sock puppet, but it honestly wouldn't surprise me at all if it turned out to be one.
If you made it through this entire post, I thank you since I know it's a lot to read. But I wanted to be as clear as possible what my reason is for needing help, because this has gone on for too long and I need help since consensus and compromise have proved impossible.
Thank you, and I appreciate any help you can offer. -- Amwestover ( talk| contrib) 03:25, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

On 24 December I listed Frank Anchor as a suspected sock puppeteer using Baseballfan789, NewYork483 and Busta Baxta as his socks. Shortly thereafter Rvelse confirmed Baseballfan789, NewYork483 and Ben1283 as socks, but listed Busta as being “Stale”. As a result, you blocked Frank for two weeks and the confirmed puppets indefinitely. [4] Subsequent to this, Busta has suddenly reappeared, after a five month hiatus, to revert the notification of his alleged sockness from his talk page [5] and has begun editing BCS controversies, a page created by Frank [6]. This is clearly a case of a blocked user attempting to evade sanction. (Busta has only made 21 edits total with six of the first seven being to award Frank a barn star.) Would you recommend that I resubmit this case or is what I have previously submitted sufficient to act upon? Prost! Hammersbach ( talk) 19:49, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
...are really one sided, I'm disappointed to say. As I said in my statements, this is an attempt to have ArbCom Rid them of this meddlesome TTN.

The community agrees with his action (look at the percentage of his AfD's that are closed as merge or delete). Meanwhile, the other side is Trying to unilaterally change Wikipedia policy and edit warring those changes multiple times over months.

Tajik is causing wide scale disruption on Wikipedia, spreading racism [1], hate, propagandas, POVs, etc. These 8 edits by IP 84.59.205.77 will prove that user:Tajik is behind that IP and the sockpuppets. In this edit, he writes like User:Šāhzādé then, hourse later, in this edit he writes like User:Šāhzādé and User:Tajik combined. He writes "Le[t´s] see here"...in the beginning and then changes the style to "But despite Zalmay Khalilza[d’s]"... "Afghanista[n’s]"..."Mr. Khaliza[d’s]"... [2] To top it off, user:Tajik did this edit and wrote in the edit summary "info + sources added according to talk page", which is letting us know that it was he who wrote in the end of the talk page of Zalmay Khalilzad.

Hello Coren,
You gave me some advice a couple months ago on how to avoid 3RR when dealing with disruptive editors while I was temporarily blocked. I'm on the brink of the 3RR on the John McCain presidential campaign, 2008 article and do not want to violate it again, so I'm asking for your assistance because of your previous advice to me and because you're a third party. But it has more to do with just the 3RR. I've been dealing with a disruptive editor for the past few weeks who is completely unopen to compromise, revert wars, and now is !vote counting on an RFC he started only a couple days ago, amongst other things -- and I've completely lost my patience with him. I do not believe that the disruptive editor, Commodore Sloat has been exhibiting good faith for some time during this dispute (as well as other disputes on the article, but that's neither here nor there). I've been pointing this out multiple times -- admittedly snidely and with sarcasm but my patience has been thin for a while, and he regards it as personal attacks even though there's plenty of evidence. I probably should've asked for assistance sooner, but better late than never, and I'm now officially convinced that there's no appeasing csloat because he has no intention of being appeased or reaching consensus.
As I said, this is related to the John McCain presidential campaign, 2008 article, particularly the World opinion subsection. This was a section that I created as part of an enhancement effort after the election, but it was also part of compromise to a major content dispute related to an edit that csloat made which was ultimately reformatted, reduced, and moved to the end World Opinion section. Everyone from both sides of the argument over exclusion/inclusion of the material supported the compromise, except csloat. Shortly afterward, he aimed most of his interest at the rest of the World Opinion section, focusing on removing content related to polling data about world disinterest in the election. But this isn't a content dispute (or just a content dispute, rather), this is about disruptive behavior both in editing and discussion.
First and foremost, I believe there is simply no appeasing him. I've made numerous compromises, and he has made absolutely none. This is best illustrated by comparing my original version and my most recent version. Here's a list of the compromises I've made:
As for Csloat, he hasn't made any compromises. All he's done is remove content and claim that I'm drawing conclusions outside of source material and distorting data. Here's the diff of his first edit/content removal where he pastes over data displaying various countries' disinterest towards the election with a redundant quote (all the information was already in the section's lede paragraph). Here's the diff from his most recent edit/content removal, and here's all that's changed:
CSloat came up with multiple reasons that my contribution was against policy. The accusations would come iteratively as each subsequent accusation was either disproved or addressed, and the accusations got more far-reaching each time -- to the point where his complaint had no valid basis in any Wikipedia policy or guideline. Here's how it unfolded:
So now, he's just saying that he simply doesn't like it. His most recent post to the RFC said that there are still "multiple issues" even though he didn't bother to list any, and that I have no more valid points.
But it's more than just his overt resistance to compromise and the various reasons he's come up with for exclusion. During the dispute, when he was on the brink of violating the 3RR rule, he instead placed a totally-disputed tag on my version of the World opinion subsection multiple times; since this was obviously not true and was clearly way too severe a tag, I regarded it as vandalism and removed it each time. During his countless reverts, in the edit summaries he'd often put "per talk", claim his edit was the "consensus" when the dispute was between just us two, claim his edit was "preferred" when again it was just us two, and claim my edits were "disruptive" when his edits were the ones removing content. The last straw was an RFC that he started, with a very slanted paragraph explaining the issue. After two days and only two other opinions voiced, he counted !votes and declared consensus and unilaterally reapplied his revert -- and this was only sixteen hours after my latest version which addresses all of his stated concerns. It became evident at this point that he was not interested in compromise or consensus, he simply wanted my contribution excluded and intended to count !vote as a basis for the exclusion.
The problem is, now one the people who expressed an opinion in the RFC is engaging in the reverting as well. I don't think this person is a sock puppet, but it honestly wouldn't surprise me at all if it turned out to be one.
If you made it through this entire post, I thank you since I know it's a lot to read. But I wanted to be as clear as possible what my reason is for needing help, because this has gone on for too long and I need help since consensus and compromise have proved impossible.
Thank you, and I appreciate any help you can offer. -- Amwestover ( talk| contrib) 03:25, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

On 24 December I listed Frank Anchor as a suspected sock puppeteer using Baseballfan789, NewYork483 and Busta Baxta as his socks. Shortly thereafter Rvelse confirmed Baseballfan789, NewYork483 and Ben1283 as socks, but listed Busta as being “Stale”. As a result, you blocked Frank for two weeks and the confirmed puppets indefinitely. [4] Subsequent to this, Busta has suddenly reappeared, after a five month hiatus, to revert the notification of his alleged sockness from his talk page [5] and has begun editing BCS controversies, a page created by Frank [6]. This is clearly a case of a blocked user attempting to evade sanction. (Busta has only made 21 edits total with six of the first seven being to award Frank a barn star.) Would you recommend that I resubmit this case or is what I have previously submitted sufficient to act upon? Prost! Hammersbach ( talk) 19:49, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

The community agrees with his action (look at the percentage of his AfD's that are closed as merge or delete).
