Hi. Since you seem to have written the articles about all of the other Overwatch League players, I figured I'd let you know that I wrote one on Jake, and might poke around at some other players too, if I can find the sources for them.
If you see any issues with the article, please let me know. It's been a long time since I wrote one.

Hi, I wanted to apologize for not notifying you about the AfD, it wasn't intentional. Regarding the nomination, I did a before check like I always do before a nomination and didn't see anything about an award.The coverage in sources is borderline enough that an AfD nomination was warranted for discussion, as determining what is a significant award is usually not a unilateral call. Nomination is not always a vote for deletion, sometimes articles are borderline and the call needs to be made by the community, especially because this appeared to be a recreated article. I changed my vote partially based on the comments of the previous deleting admin. Had I known you were the page creator, I most likely would not have nominated but would have contacted you directly.

Hey Czar, I actually believe at least some of yours articles such as Emily Kaldwin should be "redirected or deleted". Especially if even compared to Corvo Attano from the same game (which is not yours, and in my opinion not even well written, just not forced and pointless). Btw, "leading an industry trend towards more prevalent lead female protagonists at the 2015 Electronic Entertainment Expo" (to quote your lead) wasn't even true (see [2]) and so the supposed importance of this character is based on a false premise. You may change it to "causing a perception among journalists" or something like that to be factual. And perhaps I misspoke a bit, because I don't "actually" want it to be removed in any way. I rather think it should remain. The really only article I'd like to be done with at the moment is the weird essay Treason in Arthurian legend but in the way to possibly salvage and reuse parts of it elsewhere, if useful. I just can't get myself to nominate it due to a mental block of some kind. You don't need to reply and actually don't reply. -- SNAAAAKE!! ( talk) 18:36, 22 August 2018 (UTC)

Hello Czar!
I've noticed the rather recent and negatively extensive (and biased) edits on the value-form and the tendency of the rate of profit to fall. I think your view on them is rather similar to mine, at the very least on its negative extensiveness and peculiar bias. To anybody non-familar with the topic and as well actually to a lot of people who are familiar with the topic, but overwhelmed by its extensiveness, these articles (I have the feeling that these two aren't the only two) have become barely or entirely unreadable. What can be done about articles such as these in general? JulkaK ( talk) 18:03, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

I have to admit, I feel pretty crappy about how things ended last time we spoke. I apologize for the way it all degenerated, and for my snideness, to put it mildly. The most ridiculous thing about it in hindsight was that I actually ended up reincorporating almost everything you did in the edit I threw the hissy fit about, and also incorporated everything you mentioned at FAC3. After we talked, I ended up working with Niwi3 to re-write most everything in 'Concept and design' and 'Appearances', and also worked a bit on the latter section with Victoriaearle too. Sarah hasn't responded, and Ealdgyth doesn't want to be involved. I was wondering if you'd be interested in revisiting the article? I'm not asking for a cheat-sheet or detailed line-by-line analysis of the entire thing, just general points on what could be done to get your support at any future FAC, should you choose to participate.
I'm much happier with the article than the last time we spoke, including the 'Reception and legacy' section—I feel I've addressed one of your major points at FAC3 (vis-a-vis creating a narrative), in that every sentence has some aspect which ends up relating to both the previous and the next sentence. This has led to a couple of instances where the prose could do with refinement, such as how the commentary on the use of the RE3 outfit in the film could be better integrated with the commentary on the reception of that same outfit in the original game, but... that's really a timeline issue/figuring out how to utilize what was already on the article (i.e., original game commentary vs. retrospective game commentary vs. commentary of the movies, which came between the former two); Victoriaearle gave some useful insights about using an in-universe perspective, but I don't know how this can relate to reception, and she has since retired from Wikipedia. Aside from this sort of stuff, I feel like it's all pretty much there. Since this was one of your key points at FAC3, I'd appreciate any advice/feedback you might have on this, or any other aspect of the article. Thanks, and sorry again.

Hello friend. In Greece the name of Konstantinos Speras is well known. We can make his article in WP again correctly because the previous one had a lot of promblems. But please, friend dont delete the sources that proves that he became a well known fascist. If you have any objections about it, and you believe lies that communist forces killed him (or cut off his head) cause he was an antistalinist socialist i will be very pleased to give you full proofs that he was fascist. Just check the bibliography of Greek article and request book and page. Best regards -- Αντικαθεστωτικός ( talk) 16:32, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
1 Speras in 1926 as a witness in court against (all) the leadership of KKE, and he accuses them of nation traitors(with the possibility to have death penalty). Not stalinists in the leadership of KKE then but Pandelis Pouliopoulos.
2 Speras as hero of Greek fascists. (dont believe what he writes cause he dont have proofs for everything, he make from his mind many things)
3 Speras with the allias of "Greek worker" wrote the history of "Greek workers" in the fascist newspaper in the logic of worker fascist logic.
4 A greek right wing minor historian (but with many famous publications with good archive) wrote "ΑÎΔΡΕΑΣ ΚΟÎΔΑΚΗΣ. ΕπÏόκειτο για αξιωματικό σε Ï€.δ., ο οποίος ήταν Ï€ÏόεδÏος της Συνομοσπονδίας Παλαιών Πολεμιστών.[...] ( Î. ΚαλÏβας, Ε. ΕυαγγÎλου, Κ. ΣπÎÏας),. He writes about an army official who collabarate with the axis, and he had a circle of trade unionists between them...Speras. The first one Kalyvas, was in 1944 by nazis, a minister. He was killed by OPLA.
There is a lot of staff in Greek. But the big deal is that in 2018 noone says the opposite side. Only one left guy
Stinas said before 30 years that Speras was an anarchist, in his memoirs he said a lot of lies and he did a lot of copy paste from anticommunist propaganda!Because he had very anger cause, stalinists killed his friends.
There is a lot of noise about him in greek internet maybe from his relatives, but after the last publication of Kostopoulos (a well known left journalist) who he just repeat what greek wikipedia wrote the conversation is ended for sure.
Απόστολος Κοκμάδης was an young army official who has give interviews and he says about the end of Speras. They were together and they went to fight against National Liberation Front (Greece). Κοκμάδης later became an officer of the army of communists, while Speras executed. Not beheaded. Not killed by OPLA as the "red terror" want. In Greece there was a ridiculus myth for years that Communist Army (ELAS) was good, but Communist police (OPLA) was bad. New historians proved that as good and as bad was ELAS so was OPLA. So Speras wasnt killed by OPLA as the myth wanted for not to blame the good face ELAS army, but from Orestis a prominent "captain" of ELAS.
Just to say that Avraam Benaroya and Yannis Kordatos insist that he was police informant from 1925. Was Avraam Benaroya or Kordatos a stalinist? I dont think so. -- Αντικαθεστωτικός ( talk) 12:26, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

In 1934 he participated in the opening of the offices of the National Socialist Party in whose newspaper he wrote, and in 1936 appeared as a factor of a << National Conservative Organization >>. It is worth mentioning that, unlike the Trotskyist killings that were generally unclaimed (my disclaimer: from the Stalinists of KKE), the Rizospastis(my disclaimer: the newspaper of KKE) during the Occupation of Greece had no problem with the capture of the << scum Speras >> from the 34th Constitution of ELAS, as the suppression of a spyman of Lazari team of EDES >>

The sources you provided are really interesting, esp the cleanup listing. I 'll see what I can do on that. I was trying to change the references in the article of Anarchism, from standard citation code to short-footnote. I have been told that it is not a significant improvement and stopped it. What is your view? Oh and something else It came to my attention the discussion on Konstantinos Speras. There is much controversy on him and this is not reflected in the article. Orthodox Communists portray him as a fascist collaborator and anarchists as a hero. (Unfortunately....nothing new here, imho) Both sides of this controversy deserve to be represented in the article.

Hello again. I hope that you are having a great start to your week. I am considering Desperate Housewives: The Game as my next project, but I ran into a small issue while starting the "Plot" section. The player can select a name for the protagonist and her husband and son; none of them come with default names. I was wondering if you had any advise on how to write a "Plot" section without awkwardly repeating "the player character", or if you knew a high-quality article (i.e. a GA or FA) that handled this situation well.

Hi Czar, thanks for getting in touch. I've been an admin of the Social Centres Network in the UK for a number of years, after re-launching it with a view to help it survive and flourish. I've had limited capacity to support the network as much as I would like to and have had very little time to be online also. I haven't been the only person working on the 'Social Centres in the UK' page but I have been doing my best to keep the information on it up-to-date and all links working etc etc. The page has been our main 'go-to place' for information about the network as we do not currently have a website. Lots of people have said that it was good that we had a Wikipedia page and not a website, and it was nice that anyone in the network could edit the page etc. I have to say it was quite shocking when I went online to edit the page and the content was suddenly missing, and this was without any warning, messages or discussion at the top of the page as I used to see on Wikipedia. We have lots of links going to the page, and do not have the information on the page stored anywhere else, so it is not that I 'prefer that version' as you assumed, but it is our *only version* so to speak. I had to undo it in order for the information to be saved and links that we use to work for people to find out about us, the network and the projects etc. And so I would very much like to "please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus" as this is how we work as a network and in our groups. However this is not how Wikipedia editors seem to have acted. I was the main editor on the page and was never contacted until I took action to save the work that had been done to the page. Please let me know how we can keep the page, and what we need to do to get it up to Wikipedia standards - I thought Wikipedia was about preserving information, making it accessible and open in the process, and so I hope that we can see that in action with this page instead of destroying it and acting instead like the editors (non-consensus-based) of other websites.

I was gonna let sleeping dogs lie. But, for some reason, can't think what... there's something that's been troubling me for the past several months that I feel like asking you about, publicly (since you "never got" my e-mail about it). Back when I sent the request to McFarland for the Jill Valentine source, I was sent the most fascinating series of e-mails from someone associated with the McFarland project. The first was innocuous enough: sent from the main account, indicating that my request had been confirmed and I'd be receiving it in "2 to 3 weeks". The next two messages were sent almost immediately [the first, just 4 minutes later] from the personal e-mail account of someone associated with the McFarland Project. The e-mails indicated that McFarland had been approached by an unnamed Wikipedia administrator, who asked I not be sent ("speedily deny his request"
) the source because "a strong concensus has emerged at FAC not to promote any further articles relating to fictional characters, particularly not one as sexualised as Jill Valentine", and that "We'd really appreciate any help you can offer in trying to subvert this [i.e., me, Homeostasis07] sexist asshole". Thankfully, the person associated with McFarland cared not for "FAC consensus", and instead sent me a copy of the Wiki admin's entire e-mail (minus their name/ID, as the McFarland person was very concerned with
WP:OUTING). As you can imagine, this was all very... troubling.
I'm genuinely erring on the side of believing this unnamed admin wasn't you, since they used the ~ised suffix, when I've seen you use the ~ized variant in several conversations. But, on the other hand, there were so few admins involved in the whole Jill Valentine debacle to begin with, and even fewer who knew I could be identified as "his". I'll be going further with this regardless of which way things go. Just thought I'd give you a friendly heads-up, and inform you that FAC4 won't be the last time you'll be speaking with me. Cheers.

Homeostasis07, regarding your note to Sam, he works for the Wikipedia Library, which is part of the Wikimedia Foundation. His only connection to McFarland & Company, the publisher, is that the Wikipedia Library arranges access to McFarland's sources for Wikipedia editors. When you wrote above that someone had sent McFarland a poison-pen email, did you mean that that person had sent it to the Wikipedia Library?
Please send Sam a copy of the email. If I've understood you correctly, it looks as though someone sent it, knowing you would see it, to make you angry and looking around for suspects. It may be connected to the Jill Valentine FAC or it may be because of something else entirely. By not sharing the email, you're protecting the person who wrote it. Please reconsider.

I have to admit, I feel pretty crappy about how things ended last time we spoke. I apologize for the way it all degenerated, and for my snideness, to put it mildly. The most ridiculous thing about it in hindsight was that I actually ended up reincorporating almost everything you did in the edit I threw the hissy fit about, and also incorporated everything you mentioned at FAC3. After we talked, I ended up working with Niwi3 to re-write most everything in 'Concept and design' and 'Appearances', and also worked a bit on the latter section with Victoriaearle too. Sarah hasn't responded, and Ealdgyth doesn't want to be involved. I was wondering if you'd be interested in revisiting the article? I'm not asking for a cheat-sheet or detailed line-by-line analysis of the entire thing, just general points on what could be done to get your support at any future FAC, should you choose to participate.
I'm much happier with the article than the last time we spoke, including the 'Reception and legacy' section—I feel I've addressed one of your major points at FAC3 (vis-a-vis creating a narrative), in that every sentence has some aspect which ends up relating to both the previous and the next sentence. This has led to a couple of instances where the prose could do with refinement, such as how the commentary on the use of the RE3 outfit in the film could be better integrated with the commentary on the reception of that same outfit in the original game, but... that's really a timeline issue/figuring out how to utilize what was already on the article (i.e., original game commentary vs. retrospective game commentary vs. commentary of the movies, which came between the former two); Victoriaearle gave some useful insights about using an in-universe perspective, but I don't know how this can relate to reception, and she has since retired from Wikipedia. Aside from this sort of stuff, I feel like it's all pretty much there. Since this was one of your key points at FAC3, I'd appreciate any advice/feedback you might have on this, or any other aspect of the article. Thanks, and sorry again.

Hello friend. In Greece the name of Konstantinos Speras is well known. We can make his article in WP again correctly because the previous one had a lot of promblems. But please, friend dont delete the sources that proves that he became a well known fascist. If you have any objections about it, and you believe lies that communist forces killed him (or cut off his head) cause he was an antistalinist socialist i will be very pleased to give you full proofs that he was fascist. Just check the bibliography of Greek article and request book and page. Best regards -- Αντικαθεστωτικός ( talk) 16:32, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
1 Speras in 1926 as a witness in court against (all) the leadership of KKE, and he accuses them of nation traitors(with the possibility to have death penalty). Not stalinists in the leadership of KKE then but Pandelis Pouliopoulos.
2 Speras as hero of Greek fascists. (dont believe what he writes cause he dont have proofs for everything, he make from his mind many things)
3 Speras with the allias of "Greek worker" wrote the history of "Greek workers" in the fascist newspaper in the logic of worker fascist logic.
4 A greek right wing minor historian (but with many famous publications with good archive) wrote "ΑÎΔΡΕΑΣ ΚΟÎΔΑΚΗΣ. ΕπÏόκειτο για αξιωματικό σε Ï€.δ., ο οποίος ήταν Ï€ÏόεδÏος της Συνομοσπονδίας Παλαιών Πολεμιστών.[...] ( Î. ΚαλÏβας, Ε. ΕυαγγÎλου, Κ. ΣπÎÏας),. He writes about an army official who collabarate with the axis, and he had a circle of trade unionists between them...Speras. The first one Kalyvas, was in 1944 by nazis, a minister. He was killed by OPLA.
There is a lot of staff in Greek. But the big deal is that in 2018 noone says the opposite side. Only one left guy
Stinas said before 30 years that Speras was an anarchist, in his memoirs he said a lot of lies and he did a lot of copy paste from anticommunist propaganda!Because he had very anger cause, stalinists killed his friends.
There is a lot of noise about him in greek internet maybe from his relatives, but after the last publication of Kostopoulos (a well known left journalist) who he just repeat what greek wikipedia wrote the conversation is ended for sure.
Απόστολος Κοκμάδης was an young army official who has give interviews and he says about the end of Speras. They were together and they went to fight against National Liberation Front (Greece). Κοκμάδης later became an officer of the army of communists, while Speras executed. Not beheaded. Not killed by OPLA as the "red terror" want. In Greece there was a ridiculus myth for years that Communist Army (ELAS) was good, but Communist police (OPLA) was bad. New historians proved that as good and as bad was ELAS so was OPLA. So Speras wasnt killed by OPLA as the myth wanted for not to blame the good face ELAS army, but from Orestis a prominent "captain" of ELAS.
Just to say that Avraam Benaroya and Yannis Kordatos insist that he was police informant from 1925. Was Avraam Benaroya or Kordatos a stalinist? I dont think so. -- Αντικαθεστωτικός ( talk) 12:26, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

In 1934 he participated in the opening of the offices of the National Socialist Party in whose newspaper he wrote, and in 1936 appeared as a factor of a << National Conservative Organization >>. It is worth mentioning that, unlike the Trotskyist killings that were generally unclaimed (my disclaimer: from the Stalinists of KKE), the Rizospastis(my disclaimer: the newspaper of KKE) during the Occupation of Greece had no problem with the capture of the << scum Speras >> from the 34th Constitution of ELAS, as the suppression of a spyman of Lazari team of EDES >>

The sources you provided are really interesting, esp the cleanup listing. I 'll see what I can do on that. I was trying to change the references in the article of Anarchism, from standard citation code to short-footnote. I have been told that it is not a significant improvement and stopped it. What is your view? Oh and something else It came to my attention the discussion on Konstantinos Speras. There is much controversy on him and this is not reflected in the article. Orthodox Communists portray him as a fascist collaborator and anarchists as a hero. (Unfortunately....nothing new here, imho) Both sides of this controversy deserve to be represented in the article.

Hello again. I hope that you are having a great start to your week. I am considering Desperate Housewives: The Game as my next project, but I ran into a small issue while starting the "Plot" section.

I was wondering if you had any advise on how to write a "Plot" section without awkwardly repeating "the player character", or if you knew a high-quality article (i.e. a GA or FA) that handled this situation well.

Reply to Czar
Hi Czar, thanks for getting in touch. I've been an admin of the Social Centres Network in the UK for a number of years, after re-launching it with a view to help it survive and flourish. I've had limited capacity to support the network as much as I would like to and have had very little time to be online also. I haven't been the only person working on the 'Social Centres in the UK' page but I have been doing my best to keep the information on it up-to-date and all links working etc etc. The page has been our main 'go-to place' for information about the network as we do not currently have a website. Lots of people have said that it was good that we had a Wikipedia page and not a website, and it was nice that anyone in the network could edit the page etc. I have to say it was quite shocking when I went online to edit the page and the content was suddenly missing, and this was without any warning, messages or discussion at the top of the page as I used to see on Wikipedia. We have lots of links going to the page, and do not have the information on the page stored anywhere else, so it is not that I 'prefer that version' as you assumed, but it is our *only version* so to speak. I had to undo it in order for the information to be saved and links that we use to work for people to find out about us, the network and the projects etc. And so I would very much like to "please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus" as this is how we work as a network and in our groups. However this is not how Wikipedia editors seem to have acted. I was the main editor on the page and was never contacted until I took action to save the work that had been done to the page. Please let me know how we can keep the page, and what we need to do to get it up to Wikipedia standards - I thought Wikipedia was about preserving information, making it accessible and open in the process, and so I hope that we can see that in action with this page instead of destroying it and acting instead like the editors (non-consensus-based) of other websites.

I was gonna let sleeping dogs lie. But, for some reason, can't think what... there's something that's been troubling me for the past several months that I feel like asking you about, publicly (since you "never got" my e-mail about it). Back when I sent the request to McFarland for the Jill Valentine source, I was sent the most fascinating series of e-mails from someone associated with the McFarland project. The first was innocuous enough: sent from the main account, indicating that my request had been confirmed and I'd be receiving it in "2 to 3 weeks". The next two messages were sent almost immediately [the first, just 4 minutes later] from the personal e-mail account of someone associated with the McFarland Project. The e-mails indicated that McFarland had been approached by an unnamed Wikipedia administrator, who asked I not be sent ("speedily deny his request"
) the source because "a strong concensus has emerged at FAC not to promote any further articles relating to fictional characters, particularly not one as sexualised as Jill Valentine", and that "We'd really appreciate any help you can offer in trying to subvert this [i.e., me, Homeostasis07] sexist asshole". Thankfully, the person associated with McFarland cared not for "FAC consensus", and instead sent me a copy of the Wiki admin's entire e-mail (minus their name/ID, as the McFarland person was very concerned with
WP:OUTING). As you can imagine, this was all very... troubling.
I'm genuinely erring on the side of believing this unnamed admin wasn't you, since they used the ~ised suffix, when I've seen you use the ~ized variant in several conversations. But, on the other hand, there were so few admins involved in the whole Jill Valentine debacle to begin with, and even fewer who knew I could be identified as "his". I'll be going further with this regardless of which way things go. Just thought I'd give you a friendly heads-up, and inform you that FAC4 won't be the last time you'll be speaking with me. Cheers.

Homeostasis07, regarding your note to Sam, he works for the Wikipedia Library, which is part of the Wikimedia Foundation. His only connection to McFarland & Company, the publisher, is that the Wikipedia Library arranges access to McFarland's sources for Wikipedia editors. When you wrote above that someone had sent McFarland a poison-pen email, did you mean that that person had sent it to the Wikipedia Library?
Please send Sam a copy of the email. If I've understood you correctly, it looks as though someone sent it, knowing you would see it, to make you angry and looking around for suspects. It may be connected to the Jill Valentine FAC or it may be because of something else entirely. By not sharing the email, you're protecting the person who wrote it. Please reconsider.
