You previously blocked User:EuroNews for sockpuppetry. He or she has returned and is spamming articles to include an individual whose Wikipedia article was previously deleted for being non-notable. I reverted his or her edits but instead of discussing he or she is now edit warring. Can you please look into this? I'll hold off on making further edits related to him or her until you've had a chance to weigh in. Thanks! ElKevbo ( talk) 21:32, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
Hi there. I just noticed the one year protection lock you'd put on the Fairy article expired a few days ago and we've already got IP editors adding their own completely unsourced "philosophies" about fairies. I'm not asking for another protection lock just yet, but I just wanted to drop a note to ask if you would add it to your watchlist (if you aren't watching it already) to keep an eye on the page in case the IP activity increases and the page ends up needing protection again. Thanks. --- Crakkerjakk ( talk) 14:27, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
Here's the most recent Atlanta event: Wikipedia:Meetup/Atlanta/Atlanta 2; I think they plan on doing them monthly or so going forward.-- Pharos ( talk) 18:27, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
How was someone allowed to embed wrong name into the picture on Floyd Mayweather's article picture? Supergunner08 ( talk) 08:56, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
See User talk:Quackslikeaduck. This user has been editing since 2005, so it isn't a new account. Looks like collateral damage. Could you either tweak your block, assign WP:IPBE, or perhaps this really IS the person you were trying to block. If not, this needs fixing. Thanks! -- Jayron 32 04:40, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
I have saw your questions. They look to be answered well and its better to participate becuase you are doing well fine and you can be part of one. Good luck! -- Mohamed Aden Ighe ( talk) 16:47, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
Courcelles,
As a candidate for the Arbitration Committee elections, please be aware that your name has been entered into the SecurePoll ballot and can no longer be removed barring the most dire of emergencies and direct manipulation of the database. While you may still withdraw from the election, your name will not be removed from the ballot, but only struck through. If you have any further questions on the process, feel free to contact myself, the other election administrators, or the election coordinators. -- Tznkai ( talk), 2011 Arbitration Committee Election Administrator. 21:18, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
Could you restore this file? I mistakenly orphaned it while editing the article it went on when I did a text replace on it a couple of weeks ago.— Ryulong ( 竜龙) 23:05, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
The SPI I filed with respect to 138.253.48.190 and WebHamster concluded 138.253.48.190 was not a sock (i.e. I was wrong) so a "block evasion" block is inappropriate. Gerardw ( talk) 15:24, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
Hello Administrator User:Courcelles! I am writing to you because you recently closed this SPI Case. Could you please clarify the situation for third parties on the talk page, where the dispute was occurring? I would highly appreciate it! With warm regards, Anupam Talk 04:20, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
It appears that a page about me was deleted last summer. I frankly don't care if there is a Wikipedia page about me although I was somewhat annoyed that an uninformed editor implied that I wrote it myself. I did not. However, I would like to get a copy of the deleted page as it contained information regarding some of my peers that I do not have. I am also curious as to why Wikipedia's policies do not include informing the known subject of a page when changes are made to the page. One would think there would be a desire to avoid libelous statements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wvfrick ( talk • contribs) 07:36, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I teach a course at Boston University, Neuropsychology, and this year am allowing students to submit or edit a Wikipedia article as an extra project. This is being done with the encouragement of the APS (Association for Psychological Science) Wikipedia Initiative. It's all new to me as well as to the students, so please forgive our ignorance of procedures. I have 2 students who know about cognition in HIV and noticed that there is little about this in the current article. They don't want to edit what's already there, but just add a section on cognition and HIV. At present they can't do this because it's semi-protected. Would they be able to do this, and if so, what is the procedure? Thanks very much. (I'll also leave this message on the HIV talk page).

Could you look at 132.3.33.68 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log)? We received a request through Unblock-en-l to create an account for a user who is using that address, so I pulled CU data and noticed that, since your block, other accounts with identical technical indicators have became active. I presume you're familiar with the abuse in question, so could you look at the accounts at your first convenience? In particular, the account with the red-linked account of 23 November and the two that were active on 28 November need to be scrutinised. I suspect they may have been sleepers created before you blocked the underlying IP, which may mean the Unblock-en-l thread (which was dated 9 days ago) is also from the same guy. When you've made a decision, I can then respond to the Unblock-en-l thread. Thanks! AGK [ • 15:03, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
An editor has asked for a deletion review of 2011–12 Hannover 96 Season. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Kingjeff ( talk) 23:22, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi, due to my repeating an error I committed a year ago with Portal:Current_events/Calendar/2010/335, my transclusion of Portal:Current_events/Calendar/2011/335 without a noinclude wrapper mistagged my list page as a speedy delete candidate. Please recheck the deletion log. This exchange with your deletion precessor will be a help: Been here, done this.

Dear User:Courcelles, I hope this message finds you doing well. Today, another redlinked account, User:FiveColourMap, commented in the discussion, supporting the dissenting position. His account was also created after the issue arose at the talk page, heightening my suspicion. It is also unlikely that this user could have found this discussion since it was not publicized. Could you please perform a checkuser between User:FiveColourMap and User:Bowjangles? I would highly appreciate it. Thanks, Anupam Talk 01:53, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
