I'm hoping you'll intervene in the Malleus Maleficarum article and talk page, where Asterixf2 continues to stubbornly engage in a familiar type of behavior which is normally called troll activity, especially on the talk page. To use one representative example: when I criticized him for just giving his own personal opinions and I presented seven sourced citations from historians yesterday to show him how we're supposed to do things, he claimed I hadn't presented any sources, then proceeded to give his own personal views against the citations from historians I had added to the article, and ironically claimed that I was the one who was just presenting my own personal views rather than the other way around. This type of ironic "projection" has been his standard routine: you may recall that he did something similar to you a few days ago, responding to your valid points about his OR by erroneously claiming YOU were allegedly guilty of OR instead. Some of his accusations are completely random, such as his claim that I was guilty of "synthesis" for summarizing Wolfgang Behringer's position, despite the fact that I was accurately paraphrasing Behringer's views. Since Asterixf2 himself has never read Behringer's article and would have no way of knowing whether I was guilty of synthesis or not, he was just making up an accusation as a means of dodging the points Behringer raises. He also routinely makes up historical information out of thin air, such as his idea that the Malleus was removed from the Index of Forbidden Books even though there's not a shred of evidence for that and he hasn't presented any evidence; and only yesterday he was claiming it was never placed on the Index to begin with, which was also entirely unsourced. He clearly isn't arguing in good faith, in fact it's almost a textbook example of trolling. His edits to the article have mostly been an attempt to remove the consensus view among historians by replacing it with his own preferred view, which he implies is the dominant view among historians but his main sources are a literature professor and a linguist. He also uses the typical troll tactic of trying to dominate the article and wear down his opponent by his sheer volume of edits (look at his edit history lately). I've just spent more than a dozen hours over the last two days looking up information from reliable sources in response to his numerous claims, only to have him dishonestly dismiss it all as "OR". This is not how Wikipedia's editing process is supposed to be done, and we've already had far too many other similar discussions over and over again in this article and the many related articles. Most of his ideas have been refuted repeatedly, so I would ask that you please protect the article (after restoring the last good version if he changes it again) and block him at least for a few days so he gets the point.

Hi, I'm new here and would greatly appreciate some assistance.
I've been trying to get a movie added to Robin Williams' wiki filmography. I know that this list is only a partial, but I thought it was a brilliant portrayal on his part. The movie in question is: "The Final Cut" (2004). Please give me some guidance.

A new user,
BronHiggs, has been adding some excellent well-sourced content to Wikipedia. This person has significant insight into content gaps in a field and matching information to sources, for example as shared at
Talk:Marketing_research#History_of_Marketing_Research:_Much_Older_Heritage_than_Nielsen.
They expressed a concern, and you removed their concern for being misplaced. I thought I would write to you to share the perspectives that sometimes good new contributors have challenges finding their way around Wikipedia. New users who submit good content to Wikipedia are rare. This person needs some support getting their well-referenced content into Wikipedia. Are you available to review some of their submissions and give them feedback, perhaps at the marketing research talk page? If you can refer them to further support and give them advice about what to do in the future then I expect they would appreciate it. I appreciate their content, and I appreciate the time you spend doing admin work with such a high usual rate of accuracy. Sometimes good editors slip through!

Hello.
User:Cavadxangence1992 (and through his other accounts) constantly changes the population numbers of the city of Ganja by bloating them up to 825,900 for the city and 1,000,000 for the metropolitan area, contradicting the official sources about its actual population which stands at 325,000 (as of the year 2015) and does it cross wiki in the Ganja city articles, including in the Azerbaijani Wikipedia (The population of Ganja has never reached these made up numbers let alone half a million. With over 2 million people, Baku is the only large city in Azerbaijan and the second and third largest cities have a population below 400,000). You confused me with the unrelated sockpuppet User:BatuhanDemirhan who previously edited in the same article for another unreleated reason and you blocked me while I reverted Cavadxangence1992's made up population numbers. Please check the official population sources of the city of Ganja yourself and revert them accordingly. Please don't impulsively and automatically revert articles without checking the sources yourself, as you did previously, and there were also spelling errors. Checking and correcting articles is also your duty in Wikipedia along with patrolling as an administrator.

The word "Holy" (Kadosh in Hebrew) is meant to distinguish it from other spirits.
And what is that supposed to mean? That Christian holy Ghost exists? Do you have any evidence that this holy Ghost thing exists? If not then stop pushing your agenda. Christians have as much evidence of their holy Ghost as Muslims have for Allah. And why only Christian Ghost deserves the word "holy" and not those other spirits (from which Christian Ghost is being distinguished)?
Your complaints about propaganda are more than ironic, given that your user page is nothing but propaganda.
Prove to me that anything I have posted on my user page is propaganda and contains no truth. I have also provided numerous links to external websites. Can you do the same without providing links to Christian websites which obviously believe like you do? And I'm not here to push anything but the truth. And I have posted that on my own user page and also provided a note on top of the page. And Wikipedia policy regarding management of a user's page by that user doesn't prohibit me from doing that. As I have already said previously, the content on my user page does not promote hatred, racism, homophobia, bigotry, sexism or any other kind of discrimination. Also the content on my page is not inflammatory, promoting violence, pornography or any other kind of negative thing. So it is perfectly valid for me to write whatever I wish on my page. 99% (or may be even 100%) of Christianity is nothing but mythology and there is nothing wrong in calling it Mythology and I have also provided valid sources and references wherever necessary. Also do yourself a favour and provide me valid links to prove that Adam and Eve existed, End times is real, and garden of Eden existed and that earth was created 6000 years ago and many other such things.

Hi Ian.thomson.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi Ian.thomson,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

OK, firstly, you have the wrong user. You are accusing me of abuse, trolling, holocaust denial, and whatever else. I mentioned the ethnicity of a couple people that was being disputed, to help clear that up. Also, someone pointed out that there was not one holocaust involving Jews. He mentioned there were MANY holocaust. YOU are the one denying that any other group of people have suffered a holocaust. Not ME.

At times the question and the pertaining paragraph are confusing and cant crack it under the time limit; writing: even if i plan to write things in a certain manner nothing works as supposed mostly due to time, no. of lines required and flow of thought on the subject changes while writing, better ones comes up. speaking: blanking out and hard to return to the conversation without breaking the ambience.

Like this (which you also can't publish on Wiki):
Genesis 1:2 says: והארץ היתה תהו ובהו וחשך על־פני תהום ורוח אלהים מרחפת על־פני המים: "And the earth was without form and void - and darkness(37) - was on - the face (140) of the deep (55)". Also note that in 1:3 the gematria for light א֑וֹר is 207.
Now look what happens when we add light and subtract the darkness from the face of the deep: 140 + 55 = 195 (Face of the Deep) 195 - 37 (Darkness) = 158 158 + 207 (Light) = 365 - the number of days in a year.

Hello Ian.
I am an administrator of the Wikipedia Lusofona and I am here to ask you for a help with the user Andre.levy.al ( talk · contribs). I am creating a summary of the user's behavior so that, if necessary, I require infinite blocking in lusophony.
I realized by another user, that Andre has a similar behavior with the Lusophone Wikipedia. This one has been making questionable edits and then it shoots offensive words, summarizing a coarse behavior and without any respect to the other users. Requiring the blocking of users just by being reversed by these and calling them vandals and trolls.
In a small review on the user's talk page I see the similarity in behavior. Funny that this had only 3 issues in Lusophone up to 15 days ago. In a short time it has been giving problems. So if possible it would be very helpful to summarize you by reporting user behavior so that I can add in the evidence in the blocking request. Thanks for listening.

You sure know how to sweet talk guy who's just trying to make an article. RT is a news channel, like it or not, or perhaps you should remove the all of the RT related articles.

Speaking of GF, it's hard for me to believe you'd mischaracterize me as having a "grudge" against an editor with whom I've had exactly one interaction with prior to ANI - in a Talk page in which he/she edited my comments, six days ago - merely on the basis of me pointing-out said violation of WP:TPO. "Grudge" usually means ill-will developed over a long period, not making a very brief, factually correct observation of what a total stranger did six days ago. I don't know anything about User:Sagecandor beyond that single interaction and I don't edit the types of articles he/she is active on so it is unrealistic to suppose I have any type of "grudge." An apology would be appropriate, though, whether or not you offer one is obviously beyond my control. Best regards - LavaBaron ( talk) 02:02, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

I'm hoping you'll intervene in the Malleus Maleficarum article and talk page, where Asterixf2 continues to stubbornly engage in a familiar type of behavior which is normally called troll activity, especially on the talk page. To use one representative example: when I criticized him for just giving his own personal opinions and I presented seven sourced citations from historians yesterday to show him how we're supposed to do things, he claimed I hadn't presented any sources, then proceeded to give his own personal views against the citations from historians I had added to the article, and ironically claimed that I was the one who was just presenting my own personal views rather than the other way around. This type of ironic "projection" has been his standard routine: you may recall that he did something similar to you a few days ago, responding to your valid points about his OR by erroneously claiming YOU were allegedly guilty of OR instead. Some of his accusations are completely random, such as his claim that I was guilty of "synthesis" for summarizing Wolfgang Behringer's position, despite the fact that I was accurately paraphrasing Behringer's views. Since Asterixf2 himself has never read Behringer's article and would have no way of knowing whether I was guilty of synthesis or not, he was just making up an accusation as a means of dodging the points Behringer raises. He also routinely makes up historical information out of thin air, such as his idea that the Malleus was removed from the Index of Forbidden Books even though there's not a shred of evidence for that and he hasn't presented any evidence; and only yesterday he was claiming it was never placed on the Index to begin with, which was also entirely unsourced. He clearly isn't arguing in good faith, in fact it's almost a textbook example of trolling. His edits to the article have mostly been an attempt to remove the consensus view among historians by replacing it with his own preferred view, which he implies is the dominant view among historians but his main sources are a literature professor and a linguist. He also uses the typical troll tactic of trying to dominate the article and wear down his opponent by his sheer volume of edits (look at his edit history lately). I've just spent more than a dozen hours over the last two days looking up information from reliable sources in response to his numerous claims, only to have him dishonestly dismiss it all as "OR". This is not how Wikipedia's editing process is supposed to be done, and we've already had far too many other similar discussions over and over again in this article and the many related articles. Most of his ideas have been refuted repeatedly, so I would ask that you please protect the article (after restoring the last good version if he changes it again) and block him at least for a few days so he gets the point.

A new user,
BronHiggs, has been adding some excellent well-sourced content to Wikipedia. This person has significant insight into content gaps in a field and matching information to sources, for example as shared at
Talk:Marketing_research#History_of_Marketing_Research:_Much_Older_Heritage_than_Nielsen.
They expressed a concern, and you removed their concern for being misplaced. I thought I would write to you to share the perspectives that sometimes good new contributors have challenges finding their way around Wikipedia. New users who submit good content to Wikipedia are rare. This person needs some support getting their well-referenced content into Wikipedia. Are you available to review some of their submissions and give them feedback, perhaps at the marketing research talk page? If you can refer them to further support and give them advice about what to do in the future then I expect they would appreciate it. I appreciate their content, and I appreciate the time you spend doing admin work with such a high usual rate of accuracy. Sometimes good editors slip through!

Hello.
User:Cavadxangence1992 (and through his other accounts) constantly changes the population numbers of the city of Ganja by bloating them up to 825,900 for the city and 1,000,000 for the metropolitan area, contradicting the official sources about its actual population which stands at 325,000 (as of the year 2015) and does it cross wiki in the Ganja city articles, including in the Azerbaijani Wikipedia (The population of Ganja has never reached these made up numbers let alone half a million. With over 2 million people, Baku is the only large city in Azerbaijan and the second and third largest cities have a population below 400,000). You confused me with the unrelated sockpuppet User:BatuhanDemirhan who previously edited in the same article for another unreleated reason and you blocked me while I reverted Cavadxangence1992's made up population numbers. Please check the official population sources of the city of Ganja yourself and revert them accordingly. Please don't impulsively and automatically revert articles without checking the sources yourself, as you did previously, and there were also spelling errors. Checking and correcting articles is also your duty in Wikipedia along with patrolling as an administrator.

The word "Holy" (Kadosh in Hebrew) is meant to distinguish it from other spirits.
And what is that supposed to mean? That Christian holy Ghost exists? Do you have any evidence that this holy Ghost thing exists? If not then stop pushing your agenda. Christians have as much evidence of their holy Ghost as Muslims have for Allah. And why only Christian Ghost deserves the word "holy" and not those other spirits (from which Christian Ghost is being distinguished)?
Your complaints about propaganda are more than ironic, given that your user page is nothing but propaganda.
Prove to me that anything I have posted on my user page is propaganda and contains no truth. I have also provided numerous links to external websites. Can you do the same without providing links to Christian websites which obviously believe like you do? And I'm not here to push anything but the truth. And I have posted that on my own user page and also provided a note on top of the page. And Wikipedia policy regarding management of a user's page by that user doesn't prohibit me from doing that. As I have already said previously, the content on my user page does not promote hatred, racism, homophobia, bigotry, sexism or any other kind of discrimination. Also the content on my page is not inflammatory, promoting violence, pornography or any other kind of negative thing. So it is perfectly valid for me to write whatever I wish on my page. 99% (or may be even 100%) of Christianity is nothing but mythology and there is nothing wrong in calling it Mythology and I have also provided valid sources and references wherever necessary. Also do yourself a favour and provide me valid links to prove that Adam and Eve existed, End times is real, and garden of Eden existed and that earth was created 6000 years ago and many other such things.

Hi Ian.thomson.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi Ian.thomson,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

OK, firstly, you have the wrong user. You are accusing me of abuse, trolling, holocaust denial, and whatever else. I mentioned the ethnicity of a couple people that was being disputed, to help clear that up. Also, someone pointed out that there was not one holocaust involving Jews. He mentioned there were MANY holocaust. YOU are the one denying that any other group of people have suffered a holocaust. Not ME.

Like this (which you also can't publish on Wiki):
Genesis 1:2 says: והארץ היתה תהו ובהו וחשך על־פני תהום ורוח אלהים מרחפת על־פני המים: "And the earth was without form and void - and darkness(37) - was on - the face (140) of the deep (55)". Also note that in 1:3 the gematria for light א֑וֹר is 207.
Now look what happens when we add light and subtract the darkness from the face of the deep: 140 + 55 = 195 (Face of the Deep) 195 - 37 (Darkness) = 158 158 + 207 (Light) = 365 - the number of days in a year.

Hello Ian.
I am an administrator of the Wikipedia Lusofona and I am here to ask you for a help with the user Andre.levy.al ( talk · contribs). I am creating a summary of the user's behavior so that, if necessary, I require infinite blocking in lusophony.
I realized by another user, that Andre has a similar behavior with the Lusophone Wikipedia. This one has been making questionable edits and then it shoots offensive words, summarizing a coarse behavior and without any respect to the other users. Requiring the blocking of users just by being reversed by these and calling them vandals and trolls.
In a small review on the user's talk page I see the similarity in behavior. Funny that this had only 3 issues in Lusophone up to 15 days ago. In a short time it has been giving problems. So if possible it would be very helpful to summarize you by reporting user behavior so that I can add in the evidence in the blocking request. Thanks for listening.

You sure know how to sweet talk guy who's just trying to make an article. RT is a news channel, like it or not, or perhaps you should remove the all of the RT related articles. And for the record, Jesus Christ, there are a lot of people with JC initials. Fictional like Jesus Christ and John Connor, and real like James Corbett in Japan and me here in Windsor Ontario. I don't know how you do it but check the IP thingy. Also, he's likely too busy to care about Wikipedia articles because he's reporting on geopolitical abuses of power which occasionally gets termed "fringe" or the CIA's vilification term "conspiracy theory" because it drills through the torrent of mainstream media and government propaganda lies. I can list some if you like. Now that you've given me some overly harsh criticism I can address the issues and make it better.

You're good at keeping a cool head and remaining polite and civil in frustrating situations. I can see why they made you an admin. :) Sagecandor ( talk) 04:38, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

Speaking of GF, it's hard for me to believe you'd mischaracterize me as having a "grudge" against an editor with whom I've had exactly one interaction with prior to ANI - in a Talk page in which he/she edited my comments, six days ago - merely on the basis of me pointing-out said violation of WP:TPO. "Grudge" usually means ill-will developed over a long period, not making a very brief, factually correct observation of what a total stranger did six days ago. I don't know anything about User:Sagecandor beyond that single interaction and I don't edit the types of articles he/she is active on so it is unrealistic to suppose I have any type of "grudge." An apology would be appropriate, though, whether or not you offer one is obviously beyond my control. Best regards - LavaBaron ( talk) 02:02, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
I think it is conventional to leave the old block notice. Best, Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 23:37, 12 December 2016 (UTC)
When making updates/changes, please use NPOV as per its wp page. Everyone in their right mind knows Alex Jones is a nuttjob, however, the article should be balanced and fact driven in nature which is not reflected by indiduals saying that it is "fake news" because a website said it was. 25162995 ( talk) 11:38, 15 December 2016 (UTC)
