I saw that you recently closed a requested move discussion at All For Nothing? and moved the page. The original discussion was to move the article from All For Nothing? to All for Nothing?, which there is consensus for in the discussion. Unfortunately, while the discussion was ongoing the article was moved three times first to All For Nothing? (TV show), then to All for Nothing? (TV show) and then back to All For Nothing? (TV show) before you closed the discussion and made the move. So in essence, the article was not moved at all from its first request, so could you please move the article to All for Nothing? per the discussion request and consensus formed there?

Hi Jenks24. Mate, there seems to a little bit of aggro going on here. I've said my piece, but in the absence of a Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Requests for a little look, and perhaps a quiet word from someone with the buttons noticeboard, could you possibly have a little look?

Regarding changes to Scotch College wiki. You recently removed the statement "Scotch, along with its Victorian rivals Geelong Grammar School and Melbourne Grammar School constitute Australia's three premier boys boarding schools". You cited the lack of a reference as a valid reason for removing this statement, however it is without question that footnote ix clearly stipulates that Scotch College & Geelong Grammar are the premier boarding schools of the nation (using the Order of Australia index provided by The Age newspaper). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.124.42.157 ( talk) 11:33, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Can you give me some advice about these two articles? Human trafficking in Argentina is purely cut and paste material copied from a U.S. government website. No explanations, no paraphrasing. But it does appear to be in the public domain, so no copyvio issues. It is also out of date, as it is based on a 2010 report and there are new reports available for 2011 and 2012. Trafficking in persons in Argentina is from the Spanish Wikipedia and I have just finished translating it. It seems to be well researched and well sourced, even if the sources are in the Spanish language. The better translation for this title would be "Human trafficking in Argentina", but the other article already has this title. Google also prefers this title. Could I request a speedy deletion of "Human trafficking in Argentina" based on "A7. No indication of importance (individuals, animals, organizations, web content)," then move the other article to that title? Or is it better to ask for an RM? Or maybe some other course of action?

Nice comment about the number of edits to Wikipedia:Naming conventions (sports), but you obviously ignored the fact that the guideline was moved to its own page from Wikipedia:Article titles in 2009 and was subject to intense discussion at WT:FOOTY before it was formulated and posted to WP:NC. Just because the page has only had two edits in the last three years does not make it any less valid.

I was recently notified that the page for Sigma Alpha Kappa Fraternity was deleted. The Fraternity is still in force at Loyola University New Orleans and is significant to the history of the New Orleans area. We are not a single chapter fraternity, as there are two other chapters at Ferrum University and Emory and Henry University. We have an active web presence at here and are spoken of on Loyola's website here. I created a wikipedia account a long time ago and am unsure of how to un-delete. Please feel free to email me at andrewtpolandgmail.com. I was the President of the fraternity at one point and am now an alumni. I was notified by other alumni who were alarmed when, as we approach the beginning of the school year (which is a critical point for marketing to freshmen), no information was to be found. Thank you in advance for your consideration. Please feel free to email me with any additional concerns or questions.

Hi Jenks,
Could you be tempted to enage further at Wikipedia_talk:RM#No_consensus_outcomes?
You seem to have a reasonably open and balanced view, and you certainly have a lot of experience.
Your first revert was reasonable. At the very least, I can see that the reading of the word “default” can be very different to what I assumed. You second revert feels a bit strong. The reverted text seemed far less problematic, and I do think that the version you restored text is inconsistent with the policy. I also hope that you don’t really see my interest there as the starting of a “kerfuffel”. I might have been offended, but your userpage continues to force me to regard you with some affection.
You might be willing to make some comment what I think I have asserted, that Wikipedia:Requested_moves/Closing_instructions#Determining_consensus is not clearly consistent with Wikipedia:TITLECHANGES. -- SmokeyJoe ( talk) 07:06, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

I had it drafted before his edit, in fact it was his edit that resulted in an ( edit conflict) although I did see it before finally pressing enter. I'm leaving it. Striking it would be hypocritical. This is not the first time GS and other's have shown extreme partiality and bias. It is unacceptable to me as an ordinary contributor to find those with authority failing to assume good faith and instead demonstrating their own glaring bias and disregard for policy & process. If they can't follow policy without condemning editor's who disagree with them they shouldn't be using their tools in any football related topic. Leaky Caldron 12:00, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

G'day Mr J,
Whilst checking the list of articles to do ( Wikipedia:WikiProject Australian rules football/Players/ToDo) I noticed Jamie Cooper on the list. As well as the games for Fitzroy, he is the painter guy who does the historical team portraits for the AFL and it seems other teams too ( http://www.theage.com.au/national/melbourne-life/exfootballer-hits-home-run-20110215-1av5i.html). Are any of the deleted versions of Jamie Cooper about the same guy and worth expanding from, or should I just start from scratch? Cheers, The-Pope ( talk) 13:46, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
This may not be a correct reading, but "I tried to db-move but that was reverted" sounds like "I tried to db-move but that was reverted" - suggesting that edit (5) whatever it was, and whether it was by an admin rejecting a dbmove or whatever, has vanished into the ether. Do you have any idea what edit (5) was?
Don't take this personally, it's not a major issue, and I'm not getting at you, but an extra level of stress having now been added I'd like to be fully in understanding the article's history before I tie my name to the ༆'s RM. In ictu oculi ( talk) 07:45, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
I noticed your recent page move citing WP:THE as the reason. However, "The" is clearly in the name of the ride as indicated by the ride's sign (you can see it in a picture within the infobox of the article). Because it is part of the proper name, I believe it should be included and remain in the title. A similar example is The Beast at Kings Island. — GoneIn60 ( talk) 15:59, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Jenks. Thanks for blocking Daft's latest IP. All the best. ---- Jack | talk page 18:18, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
IIO has just moved dozens of Vietnam-related geography articles. The edit summaries claim he is reverting my moves. These are the moves I made a year ago, i.e. this is the same issue that he has been shopping around for weeks to so many admins and so many forums. Not only that, but many are not really reverts since various unnecessary disambiguators have been added to titles. For example, Buon Ma Thuot has become Buôn Ma Thuột city, and Dien Ban District has been moved to Điện Bàn district. (Note the clever lower casing.) Kauffner ( talk) 18:00, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
And on the subject of capitalizing Điện Bàn/ Điện Bàn district/ Điện Bàn district, Kauffner made so many inconsistent Dolovis style redirect edicts to lock his undiscussed moves that result is already a hotchpotch, undoing it is inevitably difficult, why do you think Kauffner's spent July protecting them? Jenks24, dip into any Vietnam geography category and random and try yourself restoring a handle of his undiscussed moves counter Talk:Cà Mau No.2 and you'll see what I mean. This should be your job, an admin who said he'd work in RMs should be supporting RM results not assisting editors who use any trick to contravene them. In ictu oculi ( talk) 04:27, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
Private note:
I have to say this annoys me a little, you say "but so did Obiwankenobi/KarlB", on what basis do you say this? In fact what Obiwan/Karl did was merely go back to RMs from which Kauffner had only invited the antis, and invited all. Obiwan did not go off to WP:CONSERVATISM WP:CHINA or wherever and canvass, Obiwan actually cleaned up, and again, you seem unable to make any distinction between cheating and gaming - and simply being honest and fair - which is what Obiwan was being In ictu oculi ( talk) 08:26, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

However, "The" is clearly in the name of the ride as indicated by the ride's sign (you can see it in a picture within the infobox of the article). Because it is part of the proper name, I believe it should be included and remain in the title. A similar example is The Beast at Kings Island. — GoneIn60 ( talk) 15:59, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Jenks. Thanks for blocking Daft's latest IP. All the best. ---- Jack | talk page 18:18, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
IIO has just moved dozens of Vietnam-related geography articles. The edit summaries claim he is reverting my moves. These are the moves I made a year ago, i.e. this is the same issue that he has been shopping around for weeks to so many admins and so many forums. Not only that, but many are not really reverts since various unnecessary disambiguators have been added to titles. For example, Buon Ma Thuot has become Buôn Ma Thuột city, and Dien Ban District has been moved to Điện Bàn district. (Note the clever lower casing.) Kauffner ( talk) 18:00, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
And on the subject of capitalizing Điện Bàn/ Điện Bàn district/ Điện Bàn district, Kauffner made so many inconsistent Dolovis style redirect edicts to lock his undiscussed moves that result is already a hotchpotch, undoing it is inevitably difficult, why do you think Kauffner's spent July protecting them? Jenks24, dip into any Vietnam geography category and random and try yourself restoring a handle of his undiscussed moves counter Talk:Cà Mau No.2 and you'll see what I mean. This should be your job, an admin who said he'd work in RMs should be supporting RM results not assisting editors who use any trick to contravene them.

Private note:
I have to say this annoys me a little, you say "but so did Obiwankenobi/KarlB", on what basis do you say this? In fact what Obiwan/Karl did was merely go back to RMs from which Kauffner had only invited the antis, and invited all. Obiwan did not go off to WP:CONSERVATISM WP:CHINA or wherever and canvass, Obiwan actually cleaned up, and again, you seem unable to make any distinction between cheating and gaming - and simply being honest and fair - which is what Obiwan was being In ictu oculi ( talk) 08:26, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
