Hi Jpgordon,
I just wanted to give you a heads-up about the next wiki-meetup happening in SF. It'll be located at our very own Wikimedia Foundation offices, and we'd love it if some local editors who are new to the meetup scene came and got some free lunch with us :) Please sign up on the meetup page if you're interested in attending, and I hope to see you soon!

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Global Warming Controversy". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 4 February 2012.
Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

The request for formal mediation concerning Global Warming Controversy, to which you were listed as a party, has been declined. To read an explanation by the Mediation Committee for the rejection of this request, see the mediation request page, which will be deleted by an administrator after a reasonable time. Please direct questions relating to this request to the Chairman of the Committee, or to the mailing list.

I am being harassed and look to you for unbiased advise and perhaps assitance: Today while doing the usual surfing I found that administrator John Carter seems to have resumed an old and long standing fight/harassment/persecution ? He had for some years been off and on attacking the Salem Witchcraft Trial series of articles. Originally he said that he wanted to merge them into a christian religion series of articles, and managed to harass all or almost all of my task group out of wikipedia or any involvent with the task group. Last time I backed away, as I have before. However his group got our main article delisted from good article status and managed to harass me out of trying to fix it or even editing it. Today I posted a strong warning on his talk page and responded to his post on our Salem Witch Trials task force talk page with as strong and to point an objection as I could. His group will likely have a very extenswive influence and if things are as usual this may be the only time I manage to actually post to wikipedia unmolested during the attack. Likely as not there will be an assume good faith attack on me for responding to him. He has been both banned and resricted before. Your assitance or mediation appreciated. This is, as always, beyond my wikiskills. John5Russell3Finley ( talk) 15:11, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

I saw your comment that you "Confirmed that Spencer Crispe and Vermont Hardcore Punk are the same." Is that the same as saying that Vermont Hardcore Punk was definitely socking?

Hi. I was the admin who originally blocked NoObsceneUsernames as a vandalism-only account. After seeing your note that this is a "Checkuser verified abuser of multiple accounts", I thought it would probably be appropriate to block this account from sending e-mail or editing his/her talk page. However, I don't want to get into trouble for messing with a checkuser block, so I wanted to ask you about this first. — Rich wales 03:43, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi - it has been a while but I have suddenly stumbled across a better reference. The Oxford Myth, 1988 Weidenfeld & Nicolson, Rachel Johnson, ed, contains a chapter on Oxford Politics written by her brother Boris, now Mayor of London. Page 72 sets out a detailed description of Sullivan and what he did via the Pooh-Sticks Society to gain election.
I have no wish to waste any more of everyone's time posting this on Sullivan's entry if you are just going to delete it, so if you would do me the honour of agreeing in advance that this is sufficient source material I would be very grateful. 90.206.161.236 ( talk) 09:40, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Sir, I am in the unfortunate position to inform you that, following what went on regarding the 3RR issue with User:Nikosgreencookie on the Takis Fotopoulos page, I have come under what I perceive as an ad hominem attack by a rather vocal (please see the talk page on the Takis Fotopoulos article) supporter of Mr. Fotopoulos and his Inclusive Democracy movement, User:John Sargis. Seeing that other people (such as User:Nihilo 01 - see his talk page) have come under attack by supporters of Mr. Fotopoulos and the Inclusive Democracy movement, I am being led to believe that there is a behavioural pattern that might constitute various forms of abuse (such as WP:OWN and even harassment of other users). Could you please offer some assistance? Furthermore, I would be grateful if you could point me to Wikipedia administrators or prominent editors that are fluent in both Greek and English, so that they can offer you some reliable information (as I might even be partial or I may misunderstand what I have read) on certain positions of Mr. Fotopoulos and his supporters that are only available in the Greek-language section of the Inclusive Democracy website (and are therefore flatly denied by his supporters here on Wikipedia - the language barrier seems to be put to rather good use). Thank you in advance and I hope this issue will be resolved soon. SentientContrarian ( talk) 20:51, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
Can you take a quick look at this user's request for unblock. He appears from my viewpoint, to understand the nature of his violation and seems earnest in his promise to reform (and seems focused on only one direction articles).

Hi, you reviewed the unblock request at User talk:JCAla; I left a (quite civil) note on a conduct issue at related ANI discussion, I've been returned with personal attacks accusations on JCAla's talkpage as a reply to this (since he is blocked). On asking politely to remove the attacks [1], he has simply reverted me in a rather smug manner, I guess such such attacks like "TopGun showing off his character" should be prevented either by warning and asking to remove, extending block or by revoking talkpage access which ever appropriate. Making points on another's character in reply to criticism of use of references is quite disruptive in my opinion. -- lTopGunl ( talk) 13:42, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Hello. My understanding was that Holden tells his story when he resides in the T.B. clinic. Where in the novel does it state that Holden is in a mental hospital? At first, I though that he told his story from a mental hospital. I also explained my rationale on the Talk page. ( Galaxycat ( talk) 22:50, 26 May 2012 (UTC))
Hello. It is quite frustrating because the novel is unclear where Holden resides when he talks to the psychoanalyst. When I stated that 'it was my understanding,' I did that to ensure that no one would come to the conclusion that I was vandalising the page. For example, I reverted an edit where a Wikipedia user deleted 'psychiatric facility' and replaced it with 'T.B. clinic.' I just hope that the message I placed on the Talk page will lead to fruitful discussions. Thank you for your prompt reply. I endeavoured not to overuse adverbs in this message because I know that you do not like them very much :) ( Galaxycat ( talk) 23:10, 26 May 2012 (UTC))

Hello Jpgordon. Please see User talk:EdJohnston#VanishedUser314159 / SA socking. In my opinion there is no reasonable doubt that these two IPs are being used by SA in violation of his ban. You did the indef block of his last named account that is currently in effect. I'm leaving you a note since I'd rather not be the only one who blocks these IPs. The last time around I logged the blocks in Wikipedia:ARBPS#Log of blocks and bans, after a complaint at WP:AE. I left this alone for a while but it now seems he is revert warring at Cold fusion (removed the section about alleged DARPA support of cold fusion three times over a week). He is indef blocked and was banned from the topic for one year, though the last ban has technically expired. He's been evading it all along. Lately all his IPs have been static.

I'm curious if you think your backhanded way of telling Bugs you think he should fuck off is really better than using the words directly? Was it civil because you cleverly worded it to achieve some kind of plausible deniability? Do you think this meets this "higher standard of behavior for administrators" you mention in the same paragraph?
I, too, am occasionally guilty of hypocrisy, but I usually have the tact to say one thing one day, and do the opposite the next day.

"...Moulded into a professional act by manager Brian Epstein, their musical potential was enhanced by the creativity of producer George Martin. They gained popularity in the United Kingdom after their first single..." wikipedia-the beatles
Please check this, taken from the entry The Beatles. It is evident that the artwork in a contemporary setting has intermediation and management much importance and consideration. In the case of Joao Gilberto is no different because in 50-year career, 25 years were managed by ShowBras. So why we should not and can quote it in the encyclopedia entry. It is fair, legitimate, and is used naturally in other artists and conditions, as I remember above. I appreciate your review of the matter.-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 15:10, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
I'm glad to know that you know and like Joao. I have no interest in promoting my business via Wiki, what was I meant to mention the fact of having worked with the artist for 25 years, it is also part of the story of his life and it is important to know that reference, as well as in the case of the Beatles that I gave as an example. The site is part of Showbras and brings the best information, including English, about Joao and so I think it is legitimate provided as a reference and not seen as an attempt at self promotion. It is 25 years, not days or months, who has to know the Showbras already know, but the encyclopedia should bring the information. It seems to me to see and before I cut the check request and relevance.-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 15:27, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
Nice, you can have this on http://www.showbras.com.br/Artistas_e_Eventos.html, or http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=384865444858414&set=a.379967862014839.95783.100000048848934&type=3&theater ( with my photo and my wife- Veja Magazine) and all records made by Joao in the last 25 years, there is production or production executive my name or the name of Showbras. It is well known. But note that I did it anyway to fix that you asked, I removed references to Showbras until you agree, so there's no reason to insist on cutting what was published, I make mention of Showbras (even though this is a folly, as I have tried to demonstrate).-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 19:59, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
Ok, the indications I have are on site Showbras, it is legitimate. There are shown the discs, there are the posters and there is a portrayal of history. This is what I have, which disponhop and I'm ready to share. I hope that other contributions are added, but I see no reason to devalue mine. But I tried to just make these considerations direct to you on behalf of his analysis and I think no matter what I tried to remove the references to Showbras as you request. I have more to discuss, if you think you are not timely and cuts, I'd rather anticipate.-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 20:31, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

From COI WP
1-The definition of "too close" in this context is governed by common sense. An article about a little-known band should preferably not be written by the band's manager or a band member's spouse, and a biography should preferably not be written by the subject's spouse, parent, or offspring. However, an expert on a given subject is welcome to contribute to articles on that subject, even if that editor is deeply committed to the subject. 2- It is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply 3-Do not write about these things unless you are certain that a neutral editor would agree that your edits improve Wikipedia. 4-Conflict of interest is not a reason to delete an article, though other problems with the article arising from a conflict of interest may be valid criteria for deletion.---- 189.60.189.35 ( talk) 04:51, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello Jpgordon,
Since you hold checkuser privileges, could you please investige that there is any connection between User:Iaaasi and User:Gigibec? This suspicious new user has abruptly emerged at the talk page of the article John Hunyadi which is the favourite article of Iaaasi. Based on said user's contributions to the talk page of the aforementioned article, it is definitely not a new user. I wouldn't ask you to do so, if I saw a quicker way to be investiged this account, but there is a discussion in progress on the talk page of the John Hunyadi article in which this new user also takes part, and asking for an spi for Iaaasi on the normal channel would not be conducted on time.

Thanks for unblocking me. You are right, the time of editing before reaching a common agreement for João Gilberto is over. Our common goal is to get the best possible environment for Wikipedia and have rules and guidelines to be observed, including edits on João Gilberto. Lets talk, let's discuss and settle on the best and proper way on doing things, following your advice and recommendations. It is the only way. user:lfcohen
Dear Sirs, I would like to compliment these LCohen's words( He is not me! 's good that everyone knows), and who by agreeing with me in Joao's case here suffered penalties as blocking. I agree with his words, I think we should also create a positive environment for developing Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, but I must express my apprehension with such idea that editors can censor or impede the free flow of information, especially when it prevents, for example, information about an important artist has updated his entry to better serve researchers and interested parties. We can not accept a New Censorship in free world, better run other risks because the world knows the consequences of the establishment of such forums. It is a critical but also is a warning and everyone should carefully review positions in order to prevent this is to establish and develop.

If my interventions seem to want to change the Wikipedia, this is not my interest. I worry about the interpretation that censors utilize of general rules of Wikipedia. I asked you to your assessment of certain rules in the discussion area of the entry, and you abstained and did not answer it interprets those rules. If our greatest value is freedom, it is important to know how you interpret the rules and simply does not allow important new circulate information. With regard to your accusation of marketing, frankly I can not understand why of your insistence if I have already said that there is no problem in the Showbras not mention in the text, despite dismissing charges of interests, but I do not want to discuss it now, and you know that.

I need your assistance resolving a problem with predatory editing by user Binksternet in the "Battle of Balikpapan 1942" Wikipedia article. He has not only added an inappropriate editorial slant but has reported my edits as "vandalism" now. Frankly, I think it is his edits that achieve the status of vandalism. My edits are justified in the talk page. Rather than respond, he's simply adopted the tactic of reversion. I do not know how to report his edits as "vandalism." He seems to be passionate about the subject but committed to inserting an editorial bias. Mike Diehl ( talk) 02:48, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

The following words are from user Sunny Singh (DAV) on the behalf of the head of "Internet Cafe" Mr. Sunil Verma -
The reason for block is "Abusing multiple accounts". Jpgordon misunderstood that a single user has created a number of accounts with different names. But he is not aware of the truth. Different persons are using their own account from this computer they are not able to edit Wikipedia. This computer doesn't belong to a single Wikipedia user, but it's a "Internet Cafe's" computer. This computer is one of the 43 computers lying below this roof. We call this computer with a name i.e., Wikipedia. There are also some computers with different names like Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, C++, Software, etc. A number of people come to this Internet Cafe and use Wikipedia, Facebook, etc. People who want to use Wikipedia, use this computer. People who want to use Facebook, use Facebook computer. The person who owns this Cafe charge us 25 rupees per hour for using Wikipedia computer. Persons using Facebook have to pay 35 rupees for an hour. So, here is no one who has multiple accounts. Multiple accounts being used from this computer are of different persons. Some users use this computer named as "Wikipedia" to read articles, some for making edits and many users came to ask questions on Reference Desk. I, myself, come to ask questions. Jpgordon has blocked all accounts using this computer without asking them or telling them what he is thinking. I know any administrator will do the same thing. But Jpgordon has done this mistakenly. I am not the head of this cafe instead I am a customer. Since I am the oldest user of Wikipedia from this computer, the head of this Cafe asked me to unblock the blocked accounts so that he would restore his customers. I have explained the whole story and you now know what is the real truth. So, please, restore (=unblock) all accounts (of different people) being used from this Cafe computer as soon as possible. Thank you! 27.62.140.224 ( talk) 16:42, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

I personally find the table is a lot easier to read and gives more information more quickly than the list which I found appaling, or else I wouldn't have spent hours making said table.

See [10]
Rejecting an unblock request by saying something that essentially boils down to TL;DR is understandable given how long of a read the request is. If I were you, I wouldn't read it either. I admit even as I'm writing this that I haven't even skimmed that person's first sentence.
But you shouldn't reject it without reading. You could pass it to someone else. Or show that you tried to. There are people who are willing to read something written for them, considering they believe other people's time is worth as much as theirs, and other people spent much more time writing. If this person spends all the time writing it, it's something meaningful to someone, and people who see themselves as equals will be at least interested in what that person thinks is meaningful.
Everything you did was understandable. You ain't wrong. But any human you do this to will be upset and maybe one day be a real vandal to Wikipedia--you know, like those famous ones.
We all go into these last ditch peace attempts sometimes in our lives, and beat the dead horse when we shouldn't. And we're all lucky when we did it, that no one took the opportunity to throw a slap in the face. Because that could happen to anyone, and make him/her resort to a vendetta.

Thanks for the fast answer… can I just delete the full request block?
Would the CheckUser procedure and emailing details be appropriate where an IP address and a username probably represent the same editor, a COI is apparently present, an article about an organization is affected, the IP address is probably shared in the organization, and outing is a concern? No vandalism, BLP contentiousness, casting of multiple votes as sock puppets, disruption, or editing as if aware of the COI constraint is present (the editor may have a COI but not know Wikimedia's view of COI) and no block or ban is appropriate (good faith should continue be assumed). The article has some promotionality and POV problems. Someone with that username edited not this article but one other article on English Wikipedia (I didn't check other projects), suggesting that they may specifically wish not to be outed. The article is being edited from an IP, which I geolocated last Sunday to at or near the organization's postal address. The IP address is not single-purpose, but the IP's editing is mostly to the article. The username editor wrote that s/he "work[s] for" the organization. Because of the risk of outing, I have not tagged the article, the article's talk page, the IP talk page, or the username talk page and prefer not to identify the username, the IP address, or the article publicly here on my own. Evidence that the IP address is being used by the editor with that username was found in a context in which spoofing is possible, if not very likely; stating the evidence here would make outing much easier, so I'm omitting it at the moment. I can fix some of the article's promotionality and POV problems but the article seems to be watchlisted or on an RSS/Atom feed so some fixes may come from other editors, so I have not edited the article for this purpose yet, preferring to do so when I can either tag with COI notices or be satisfied that there probably is no COI. I previously raised the issue at WT:COI but have not raised it at COI/N. I chose you by trying to select a CheckUser editor more or less randomly from among editors I don't know.

Hi, Josh, I am an uninvolved bystander looking into the details of the Ahnoneemoos ban. You recently reviewed the ban notice over on his talkpage, so I figured I would contact you about it. I had a brief conversation about the incident with SilkTork (over on their talkpage), but did not really get the answers to my questions. I'm more generally interested in the ban-hammer on wikipedia, rather than the details of this particular issue -- I consider it more of a case study that will help me figure out the overall shape of the process, as opposed to something directly relevant to my own wikipedia interests. I have not had any contact with Ahnoneemoos directly (I found out they were banned by accident after reading one of their essays and then visiting their talkpage to ask them a question). I have also not had contact with SilkTork excepting today of course, or any of the other editors involved in the pre-ban dispute over on the page about Mayors in Puerto Rico. Besides researching the use of bans for my own knowledge of how wikipedia works under the hood, I am of course interested in seeing wikipedia function correctly, including treating folks fairly. Whether that occurred in this particular incident, is unclear to me; I'm still slogging through the edit-history of the involved pages. Do you have a few minutes to give me an independent admin's perspective on banning as a tool? Thanks.

Note that I slightly corrupted the validity of the sourced portion, changing from unforgettably-Presidential to straight out unforgettable. Naughty! Plus, fully admit this is a contrived example... but I've seen things like it. In particular, wikipedia articles (as opposed to wikinews blurbs) get out of whack when people do *not* edit them with consciousness that wikipedia is intended for the ages.
"Last week, LikwidBuzzsaw's lead guitarist was incarcerated[3] for possession of illicit chemicals; the remainder of their concert-dates this year are reportedly[4] in jeopardy."
edit:
"During the week of October 7th 2013, LikwidBuzzsaw's lead guitarist Fuzzy Mullet was incarcerated[3] for possession of illicit chemicals; the remainder of their 2013 concert-dates were reportedly[4] in jeopardy."
counter-edit:
?
If you fail to specify the name of the lead guitarist, then you end up needing to say then-lead-guitarist, at some point. Ditto if you don't specify the October 7th 2013 in the prefatory phrase. I get annoyed when people delete stuff which is merely 'old' by some personal standard. Notability is not temporary. Articles that cover LikwidBuzzsaw as if the current band-members and this year's tour-dates are the *only* notable things about the topic drive me nuts. :-)
p.s. Interestingly, although I disagree with you somewhat about thenectomy, I'm right with you on the over-use of ironically... and ironically, I'm right there with you on the over-use of the word interestingly.
p.p.s. Since this is a talkpage rather than an article, I fully admit I was too lazy to look up the year of Lincoln's speech, or Obama's quotation... let alone the relevant dates for Fuzzy Mullet's jail sentence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.192.84.101 ( talk) 03:20, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Hey JPG, you're my randomly-selected admin. :) I was wondering if you could please take a look at this character. Seems to contribute nothing to the project other than long, pointless rambling complaints on their talk page, and on other talk pages. Both IPs geolocate to Westerville, Ohio, so it might be the same dude interacting with himself, perhaps for therapeutic purposes. Naturally, seeing this type of prolific nonsense on two talk pages leads me to wonder if there might be others... I'll keep poking around. Thank you, sir!

Thanks for your comments on my userpage. I had a bit of a queasy feeling about that, and probably should have followed the process. My feeling is, though, that I am blocking the user for edit warring - and this user has been warned repeatedly by me and another editor. I am not blocking the user over a content dispute -- I am trying to engage them in a discussion about that dispute, but they are refusing to participate. The user had engaged in Dispute Resolution then abandoned it when they couldn't get their way. I realise that it would be better form to go through WP:AN3, but I am dealing with someone who does not play well with others, so I am taking what I think is a reasonable step. If this recurs, I will go through AN3. regards, Ground Zero | t 22:42, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

Here is my story I reverted a guy a few times who was changing history and sourced facts, I did not break the 3rr rule or any wikipedia rule, however I should have probably taken it to the discussion page first. I created a 2nd account, with almost the exact same name, to talk to the admin who had blocked me without showing my ip, that was not possible however and I made no edits with that account.

On skimming the requests-for-unblock category I came across the request by Beastra. Daniel Case blocked this editor for "spamming" back in September. I've checked the contributions (there are no deleted contributions) and as far as I can see on-wiki, the "spamming" consisted of one edit. In that edit, the user added a link to the BLP of a notable but lesser-known writer, linking to an interview of that writer contained in the editor's personal blog.
Unless I have missed something (I've asked Daniel on his talk to comment, but he is away), I am not sure that this edit was fairly categorized as "spam." We obviously don't want editors whose purpose on-wiki is to add or spam links to their own sites, but the linked blog post was an interview with the BLP subject herself. The link was a useful contribution to the article especially given that all of the other sources were several years old. I am not certain that adding this single link to the article constituted a policy violation. While it might have been better practice to propose the link on the talkpage, this is a lesser-trafficked article and there can be no assurance that such a suggestion would have received a timely response.
More importantly, the single "spam" edit was the user's very first edit. There was no reason to assume that she was familiar with our policies concerning spamming or COI editing. After Xlinkbot reverted the link (presumably because of "Wordpress" in the URL) and advised the editor of the relevant policy and guideline pages, she did not add the link again or do anything else inappropriate. (In fact, she didn't make any other edits at all.) I would not have blocked her based on this limited history.
The other day, this still-new editor posted an unblock request, which you declined because she had not promised to refrain from posting links to her blog. I am not sure that such an absolute and blanket request was necessary, but in any event, she has posted another unblock request in which she gives the assurance you asked of her. Thus, I would welcome your either unblocking her now or confirming that you don't mind if I do. Thanks and regards, Newyorkbrad ( talk) 20:38, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello. I'm posting here for advice because I don't know what to do at this point, and you have been involved with this user in one of the pages at Alempijević.
For the past 2 months, this user has been persisting in changing redirects from Serbian family names into the current form, of writing that it's a family name and mentioning the former redirect title as 'one of the people with the names.' The user has changed the pages Alempijević, Brajić, Ćesarević, Dokmanović, and Đujić. I have continually reverted the edits, informing the editor on his talk page that the type of pages he's trying to create (I assumed that to be disambiguation) cannot be created for a family-name page with one Wikipedia entry. Since then, the user has accused me of 'vandalizing' - even though I informed them of WP:VAN, used the word 'may' in Category:Redirects from surnames to justify that he could go around changing the pages to his liking, and has since accused me and other editors as being 'Serbophobic' as seen here.
I've attempted to discuss the issue, both with the editor and on my talk page, with no success. More details about the case can be seen Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive844#User:59.41.252.228, which has been archived without much discussion. I made a last-ditch attempt after that to post on his talk page, but with no avail. I've been so insistent on this issue since it appears that the user will go around changing all the redirects from Serbian surnames to his liking, according to his posts on my talk page. Please advise on further actions. KJ «Click Here» 05:31, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

I am faced with a persistent revert attacker reverting all the hard work I do on this page. All that person (Ogress) does is simply revert making no effort to rewrite. They make very subtle personal attacks on me and then pretend to be abused when I reply with any explanation. I'd like you to PLEASE put a halt to this by giving semi-protection to the page in that there should be no reverting war involved but proper editing. The last time around it was purposely done to anger me and then get me to be warned by you - the entire 2 sections were deleted JUST LIKE THAT! Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 18:06, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
I hardly used 6 to 8 words interspersed in caps in a write up of probably about 500 words in my last post on your Talk Page and so I did not know that even that is considered yelling and screaming. I only used them for emphasis. Also, I did not know that you automatically get to see what I write on my Talk page unless you have manually opted to watch my page - and that's what I wanted to know but you still have not told me whether you have opted to Watch my Talk Page or not. Your polite guidance to me could have a gone a long way for both items. I am also not asking you for help with my content but I am asking for help in my dispute with Ogress and there is a huge difference between the two which you well know as an Admin that one involves content development but the other is content protection from improper deleting. What I am asking of you - and very politely - is that you don't favor Ogress by letting her win the revert war simply because all she has to do is use the delete button whereas I put in a back-breaking (literally) amount of time to write even a paragraph with care and research in an environment where blackouts occur every 3 or 4 hours without warning. That's all I demonstrated to you in my last write up to show how a paragraph can be easily messed up to give a completely different picture but you don't seem to care about that at all and seem to favor Ogress just because you have black marked me once for using angry words in all my years here. I only want you to be fair in your admin instead of blindly favoring one side in a revert war without caring to see who is right or wrong and who started it in the first place - surely you owe that to Wiki as an Admin? I had honestly thot of stopping Wiki editing because I am too old to work long hours at the age of 70 and your behavior (more than Ogress' behavior) is making me think again. Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 00:22, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for telling me this because clearly I am unaware of how I appear to others on the Wiki from the way you describe my edits. Okay, so what's the solution? I suggest you take a few moments to take a paragraph or two that you have found unacceptable and show me like I have been showing to jpgordon and you and others why I do what I do from the long paras I have written so far. So please reciprocate that favor and show me where I went wrong from a para or two from the Nizari Wiki Page if possible (but not my angry words at Ogress or writing in caps on Talk Pages because I have gotten those messages now from jpgordon and will be careful - ultra careful - about those two things in the future. Your help - and that of jpgordon - in this matter can be crucial to my staying on board the Wiki because I am asking myself now the question: "What is the point of back-breaking toil if anyone can simply arrive on the scene, call themselves a "smasher" and smash things up - unless I am myself writing copy that is utterly unacceptable as you say it is. Thanks and I look forward to your telling me just exactly what you have read on my edits that have made you so displeased with my writing. Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 01:22, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
You told me that since I was warned by Ogress not to revert her change then that had made it a second warning to me. She implied that the first warning was from you. Had I reverted her edit then you would have blocked me for sure. Am I correct? So by your threat to me to block me and her threat to me to block me you both together make a team of two and thus have won the day and got me to freeze up from reverting on the Nizari Wiki Page. So then where is the Admin impartiality in the matter? But as you so eloquently say, "... and I don't care." Next you say I am trying to add too much material at one go by reverting Ogress' deletion of two entire articles that had been there for months. But you have conveniently ignored the fact that Ogress had removed at a single click all that much material that was already existing there in the first place! She had simply removed it all including the references! So I am wrong when I try to add back all that was removed by her but Ogress is doing no wrong by deleting in that reckless if not vicious, manner? And then you actually say you don't care as to why it was all removed in the first place by Ogress even tho I tell you why!
Isn't best practice relevant to Wiki Admin? After all Wiki goes out of its way on the RFC (Request foe Comments) page to say so to the extent that if it finds out that the commentators have been brought in by any one party to influence the outcome then those comments will be voided. But you are Ogress' best ally on the Nizari Talk Page and you are extremely rude in the way you speak to me by saying "... and I don't care". So may I ask you why you are monitoring the RFC for the Nizari Page and why you will be giving the resulting decision at the end of the discussion? So what do you care about if all you care is to make sure that not only does Ogress have her way on the editing side of the Nizari Page during the discussion and after it you will make sure she gets her way in your decision that will follow. Don't you care that you are so obviously biased in her favor and completely prejudiced against me? I'll put this on the Nizari RFC to see what others think about all this. Next point: I tell Ogress on her Talk Page to tell me the exact words I had used that had initially made her tell me so rudely and brazenly on my User Talk Page that I had abused her. Of course she ignored this request because it would show that she had used the same type of commenting in the same public place! Next point: I give you an example of how an old edit had been changed by Ogress because of her lack of understanding of the word "Imamim-Mubeen" and that I had replaced that paragraph with a new one because I realized that if Muslims like Ogress did not know &/or understand that concept then what to say of everyone else? So I edited a new paragraph in its place and put the word back in. Ogress seems to have accepted it so far - but that's only because her attempt to edit out the aforesaid word (Mubeen) as a useless appendage that it had alerted me to the need for an explanatory type of paragraph to explain its meaning. But these types of paragraphs are extremely hard to source. Next: when I told you on your Talk Page why such information from oral sources (hymns and epistles) is extremely difficult to source [which Ogress makes a point to emphasize every time she deletes something by calling it either unsourced, or "outdated references" (what the heck does "outdated references" mean?) or "essay writing"] you rudely told me not to bother you on your Talk Page. Can't you be polite when you are supposed to be a mentor on Wiki? Here below is the concerned paragraph so that now you will hopefully see that it is very relevant indeed to the RFC and the way Ogress works to remove things (which is easier to do) and the way I work to add things (which is much, much harder to do): The Nizari Ismaili tradition is unique in that it is the only tradition that bears witness to the continuity of the hereditary divine authority vested in the Imamim-Mubeen. In all the Sunni traditions, the Imamim-Mubeen is interpreted as the Quran itself; and in all the Shia traditions except the Shia Nizari tradition it is interpreted as the last Imam of a dynasty who went into occultation. However, in Nizari Ismailism, it is interpreted as a living human Imam who is never ever in occultation and who will never ever be absent from this world but will always be perpetually present and physically alive designated as the inheritor of the Imamat from father to son. This tradition has continued over 1400 years from Ali to the present Imam-of-the-Time, Prince Karim al-Hussaini Aga Khan, the 49th hereditary Imam and direct descendant of Mohammad through Ali and Zahra. Next you tell me off that I yell at you even tho it was about 7 words in 500 used as emphasis. Couldn't you have simply said, "Hey Salim, don't use the upper case at all because it is considered yelling," and I would have been mentored in the etiquette of the letters usage. Instead you behaved as if a red flag had been shown to a bull and after that nothing else in my post to you mattered except the red that was now before your eyes because of a simple error in the use of the caps. Do you at all realize that your own behavior is unforgivable? Last point: I looked up Panda's Talk Page and lo and behold, I saw that Panda also behaves in the same way you do because there is a post there from a person (I think it was "Mindy" or some such name) and she actually told Panda that altho he had supported her in her contention with another person, it was wrong to block him because in fact she had realized from the man's appeal to her that the fault had been hers to begin with. My goodness! Panda had blocked a poor fellow from the page in question and was least bothered to look into the matter when appealed to (just like you!) and it took the woman called Mindy to reverse Panda's decision and unblock the fellow by accepting her own mistake without anyone's pressure on her! What a great person and what a poor showing of Admin ability to monitor best practice on Wiki. Therefore, may I ask what do you care about and what is it you are monitoring on the Nizari Talk Page? Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 19:14, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
How can I know what you write on your talk page? Aren't you supposed to write on my Talk Page or in reply to me on jpgordon's page? As it is he discourages everyone from writing on his Talk Page. I checked your Talk Page and the item I referred to has gone - either your bot has deleted it or archived it automatically.

Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 20:47, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
I did not write anything on your page and therefore I had no need to watch your page. Also you can easily delete stuff on your talk page and I suggest you back off because I believe you have done that and are now harassing me. If you continue to harass me then I shall take you and this matter of deleting stuff on your talk page and then blaming me for pointing out the truth about one of your blocking adventures to an Admin superior to you. It should not be difficult for them to look into your history and dig out "Mindy" or whoever when I describe the circumstance. How the heck would I have known about it if it was there for everyone to read on your talk page?? Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 21:05, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

Hello Jpgordon, I am Jon, the original contributor to the WZ-10 attack helicopter page, recently the page has came under attack by Pvpoodle. He repeatedly edited the page using his own personal opinions and old sources which came from western news media, he claimed that they are multiple sources but they are not, they all contain the same materials and were all written from March,7th, 2013 to March, 8th, 2013. Just three month after the Chinese first officially revealed the WZ-10 to the general public. The sources he posted have since then been debunked by Chinese and Russian news media and Kamov's chief designer have recanted his words, yet Pvpoodle keep trying to push it through. Another user named Shulinjiang attempted to debunk Pvpoodle's relentless acts by providing more update Chinese and Russian sources. Yet Pvpoodle did not stop. He keep posting destructive and derogatory comments and even attempt to change the page's chief designer whom was indeed Wu Xingming to Kamov! The page has become a personal battle ground for Pvpoodle.
I have spoke to The_Last_Arietta a Wikipedian about this issue and he allowed me to revert Pvpoddle's destructive eddits but he is not an admin. I really suspect that once Pvpoodle is unbanned, he will return again to keep editing Wikipedia pages in his own way without any regard to truth or not. He has shown a personal pattern of doing so in the past and was proven on the "2001 Bangladeshi-Indian border skirmish" page. It was literally his own battle ground.
I am the original contributor on the WZ-10 page, having spend hours if not days making constructive materials and you can see that the page was well written and described in details, backed up with more creditable Chinese sources and even pictures.

Also pinging Bishonen - It would appear that he has a malformed request for unblock on his page now (looks like he copied code, but doesn't really understand it enough to diagnose the problem perhaps; not quite sure ...). Either way, I am inclined to unblock him at this time, noting however that he is on an incredibly short leash and should seek to make extra effort to follow WP:CIVIL, WP:EW, etc. Any objection?

This response is far too dismissive. Gamaliel, who blocked Tabasco, and Dreadstar, who declined the second unblock request, are both WP:INVOLVED regarding the relevant topic area with Gamaliel being personally involved regarding the editor in question. Your statement that merely copied Dreadstar's is not even correct as Tabasco did address the edit in question. An unblock request should not be reviewed with such flippant language even if you find the editor's request aggravating.-- The Devil's Advocate tlk. cntrb. 06:21, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
You didn't find my changes constructive because you are a cheese dick. Legality and scheduling a substance are two different things airhead. The DEA isn't allowed to make up its own laws. Arguing that it is allowed to do so because people who sold the drug claiming it to be heroin have been successfully prosecuted only supports my claim on why they were successfully prosecuted had to do with what they were doing and not a result of possessing acetylfentanyl. But I don't expect half the morons that contribute to this train wreck of a website to actually provide correct contributions.

Hello, I am very sorry to disrupt, but I'm not exactly sure where I would go with this. I was looking for checkusers and found you on the list. You most likely know more on this subject than I do. If you look at the revision history [16] you will notice that 3 IP addresses have vandalized today, and they are very similar. 205.122.7.140, 205.122.7.141, 205.122.7.142. I'm not an expert with computers, so I'm not sure what this means. I just know that it would appear to be the same range. They seemed to have stopped so not really an emergency. I'm not requesting a checkuser report on them (since I have no evidence), I just wish to know what they are, how to tell what they are, and what I should do if I ever come across IP addresses like that again. - Kanashimi Hyoketsu 18:21, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jpgordon, My source for my edit was my own research into the subject. I used the formula for the minor pentatonic scale which is 1,3,4,5,7 of the minor scale (you can Google that on the net for source) to calculate an E minor pentatonic scale. This had a result of E, G, A, B, D, E which is matches perfectly all the notes of Standard Tuning though the order isn't correct. Once you reorder the scale it comes out to E, A, D, G, B, E which is Standard Tuning.
For reference, a Minor E scale consists of E, F#, G, A, B, C, D, E. The minor pentatonic scale formula (1,3,4,5,7) applied to the E minor scale would be E, F#, G, A, B, C, D, E <- this is in the second octave, there for this would be considered per the formula as 1 as well. I am sorry I didn't give a source in the first place and I will be better about that next time. - SGA314 ( talk) 19:12, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

I don't want AHLM13 to be unblocked but lots of proxy IPs and socks are launching personal attacks posing as Undertrialryryr socks and AHLM13 socks. Three times my account was logged off even though i didn't click log out. I changed the password and disconnected my net connection;after that it stopped. I am telling you: if in future, I post offensive derogatory messages on people's talk pages,then please make sure that my E-Mail address that i have registered is not changed.That's the only way i can regian my account . AHLM13 claimed he was hacked or he had BROTHER. I don't know about him but even @ Mar4d: and @ Lukeno94: is doubting about this hacker in ANI. I have reasons to believe all these cases mentioned below are inter-related: A)- In this SPI DoRD mentioned "ЗОРДАНЛИГХТЕР, plus a bunch more, are almost certainly the same as the ones I listed above, who may or may not (I'm leaning not) belong to this master." Technically they were not matching with Undertrialryryr. And i found their editing very different from the previous accounts.Vanjagenije accepted he was not sure but they were tagged "Based on the behavior".
B)- AHLM13's account abused Babitaarora in the same manner কসমিক এম্পারার attacked her, {私はあなたにを愛し did the same thing, unknown ip, another Undertrialryryr sock
II- 49.156.159.82 III- 14.139.56.13 Now check the last line of this offensive comment on Titodutta's talk page by কসমিক এম্পারার which is very similar to this edit made today by 14.139.56.13 . Those who can read Bengali will understand that they are same. All three are proxy IPs, as i checked them on internet IP Location finder and they must be blocked indefinitely, not for few hours or one week.
D)- Same guy who removed Babitaarora's complain on Materialscientist's talk page about Undertrialryryr socks. I am sure this is not Undertrialryryr.
E)- Unblock request by 115ash is the same comment he made on Ged UK's talk page with IP-78.149.203.69, and this IP is similar to this IP-78.149.127.141 which we believe is AHLM13 as we found that his English is similar to AHLM13.
They don't match with the contributions and editing style of these sock accounts in other languages.
later on few socks whose names were in Punjabi language attacked Babitaarora. Their offensive comments and edit history were deleted by Materialscientist,Yunshui and Albertsquare. They were tagged as Undertrialryryr socks. I don't know whether the Ips were same or most obviously the same reason previous socks were blocked due to behavioral evidence. Once DoRD told me that personal details of any user can't be made public which includes IP address, but Check user should at least tell whether these latest sockaccounts : ਬਬੀਤਾ ਦੇ ਪਤੀ, Lundbaaz King Shaan Shahid, Pakistani girl's breasts, ਬਬੀਤਾ ਦੇ ਪਤੀ and ਕਾਸ੍ਮਿਕ ਏਮ੍ਪੇਰੋਰ matches with the IPs of Undertrialryryr, ZORDANLIGHTER, Blackwizard2000, or they match with unconfirmed socks written in other languages.

Thanks User:Ravensfire and User:OccultZone, but I am not a a sockpuppet of those accounts, plaese see the ANI, where people are supporting me. So far I did some Ip edits and created just one account (AHLM85), but just for to let know people that I am innocent. Regarding you Admin JPGORDON, can you tell me what can i do? I am alone and I have nowhere to go. Hackers or vandals are not stopping to create account, and some people think that those are me. I tried to do " unblock requests system (UTRS)", but they sent an email by telling me that now is too late, as I was not a user who registered as LIFE COMMITTED IDENTITY (or something like this). What do i need to do, as I am innocent. It is true that I have to be careful my wiki account's security, but I changed my password and still hacker log on. I contacted some check users, but they are not answering me. What can I do? Can someone unblock me as I have done nothing bad. I promise that I will be more careful regardless of my account. But if the hacker log in on my account again, then I promise that I will leave wikipedia. But can another chance be given to me? Even other users (those invilved in ANI) are having problems with their accounts. Thanks. -- 78.149.119.13 ( talk) 11:47, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi Jpgordon, I wanted to explain why I undid your edit at Cliff Edwards. The lede was half-devoted to his troubled personal life, yet that section makes up a very small part of the article body, and it is not his troubled personal life for which he is known. I did not remove this part of the lede, but I agree with the IP editor who did. It also undid a dab change I had made. I hope that sufficiently explains my rationale. All the best, 78.26 ( spin me / revolutions) 15:02, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
You previously did the following blocks for sockpuppets [18], [19],and possibly some of these others [20]. A new request for a sockpuppet investigation [21] has been initiated on the same issues and the same article ( Leo Frank). That investigation is going nowhere and I have been advised by another administrator that the behavioral aspects may be too complex to be accepted. In any event, with the opening of an RFC on the Frank discussion page, the similarities between Machn, GingerBreadHarlot, the current IP, and even another user (Gulbenk) seem clear and their postings have accelerated since the referral was made. In any event, it seems like you are in a better position than most to wade in and make a determination if you should so choose. Thanks for any attention you devote to this.

Hello User:jpgordon,
You recently unblocked an IP address 141.217.233.69 that I requested because I was going through some history and noticed that particular IP was blocked (You said it wasn't but still unblocked for sake of me asking) and it had a lengthy talk page. I no longer use that IP and have a registered account. You can see from my history that I have had sock puppet issues in the past but I have been doing the right thing after being unblocked. I do not believe I violated any Wikipedia policy but I was just cleaning that talk page which I used. If that is not okay, please let me know. For times sake, I have undid it to show that I really mind that stuff there or should I just archive those unblock request and talk page discussions on my talk page. There is a user name kapil.xerox who I have had issues with in the past regarding a group called BAPS. That user is trying to get me blocked again for this issue and accusing me of sock puppetry when I have not done anything wrong and trying to use my section blanking as evidence to block me because he disagrees with any criticism towards their group. In particular recently, for the article titled Akshardham Delhi (a monument made by BAPS), he recently popped out of no where to try to remove legitimate sourced by over a dozen environmental criticisms regarding the monument. Please see [22] and the talk page [23]. When I updated the books for the citations and added several more citations, he contacted another admin as you see here to [24] to remove me from Wikipedia. I believe this is not okay especially since this user has a severe conflict of interest in this subject who also was blocked when I was going through my issues. I hate taking up time on these issues and there are bigger fish to fry here but would please take a look at this because it is getting frustrating. Swamiblue ( talk) 06:28, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
Looking back it turns out to be a rant then actual questions. These are my two questions:
Am I violating any rule by that can result in blocking if I blank out the user pager for the IP address 141.217.233.69?
Would you talk a look at the Akshardham (Delhi) article because if the environmental part is properly allow to be there? I am being accused of edit warring with the environmental part when the users have not reached consensus and majority are apart of that group to portray their sect in only a positive light. Here is it: [25]

Dear Jpgordon, I am hereby requesting your possible intervention over the highly controversial Planned Parenthood Talk Page [26], specially the last few posts, where we have seen a lot of edit warring and even insults (lobbied at me, quite the new user around here by a long-time Editor) I am sorry of this seems like a cold call but after searching for a way to contact Administrators, I found "alexz's tools" and it showed me, by order of recent activities, "Admins willing to make difficult blocks". You were the second one in the list, thus I am trying to contact you (I decided on skipping Nihonjoe since he seemed to have quite the pointed interest on Japan and Anime, which is perfectly fine, but you seemed to have a more "general" experience (proof: [27]))
I am sorry if this is inappropriate of me, to ask of you to intervene. I do not know who is the "main" Administrator overseeing said controversial Talk Page.
Note: Is there anything I can do besides complain on the insulting editors own Talk Page? Source: Established editor JBL insulting me: [28].

I am being harassed and look to you for unbiased advise and perhaps assitance: Today while doing the usual surfing I found that administrator John Carter seems to have resumed an old and long standing fight/harassment/persecution ? He had for some years been off and on attacking the Salem Witchcraft Trial series of articles. Originally he said that he wanted to merge them into a christian religion series of articles, and managed to harass all or almost all of my task group out of wikipedia or any involvent with the task group. Last time I backed away, as I have before. However his group got our main article delisted from good article status and managed to harass me out of trying to fix it or even editing it. Today I posted a strong warning on his talk page and responded to his post on our Salem Witch Trials task force talk page with as strong and to point an objection as I could. His group will likely have a very extenswive influence and if things are as usual this may be the only time I manage to actually post to wikipedia unmolested during the attack. Likely as not there will be an assume good faith attack on me for responding to him. He has been both banned and resricted before. Your assitance or mediation appreciated. This is, as always, beyond my wikiskills. John5Russell3Finley ( talk) 15:11, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi - it has been a while but I have suddenly stumbled across a better reference. The Oxford Myth, 1988 Weidenfeld & Nicolson, Rachel Johnson, ed, contains a chapter on Oxford Politics written by her brother Boris, now Mayor of London. Page 72 sets out a detailed description of Sullivan and what he did via the Pooh-Sticks Society to gain election.
I have no wish to waste any more of everyone's time posting this on Sullivan's entry if you are just going to delete it, so if you would do me the honour of agreeing in advance that this is sufficient source material I would be very grateful. 90.206.161.236 ( talk) 09:40, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Sir, I am in the unfortunate position to inform you that, following what went on regarding the 3RR issue with User:Nikosgreencookie on the Takis Fotopoulos page, I have come under what I perceive as an ad hominem attack by a rather vocal (please see the talk page on the Takis Fotopoulos article) supporter of Mr. Fotopoulos and his Inclusive Democracy movement, User:John Sargis. Seeing that other people (such as User:Nihilo 01 - see his talk page) have come under attack by supporters of Mr. Fotopoulos and the Inclusive Democracy movement, I am being led to believe that there is a behavioural pattern that might constitute various forms of abuse (such as WP:OWN and even harassment of other users). Could you please offer some assistance? Furthermore, I would be grateful if you could point me to Wikipedia administrators or prominent editors that are fluent in both Greek and English, so that they can offer you some reliable information (as I might even be partial or I may misunderstand what I have read) on certain positions of Mr. Fotopoulos and his supporters that are only available in the Greek-language section of the Inclusive Democracy website (and are therefore flatly denied by his supporters here on Wikipedia - the language barrier seems to be put to rather good use). Thank you in advance and I hope this issue will be resolved soon. SentientContrarian ( talk) 20:51, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, you reviewed the unblock request at User talk:JCAla; I left a (quite civil) note on a conduct issue at related ANI discussion, I've been returned with personal attacks accusations on JCAla's talkpage as a reply to this (since he is blocked). On asking politely to remove the attacks [1], he has simply reverted me in a rather smug manner, I guess such such attacks like "TopGun showing off his character" should be prevented either by warning and asking to remove, extending block or by revoking talkpage access which ever appropriate. Making points on another's character in reply to criticism of use of references is quite disruptive in my opinion. -- lTopGunl ( talk) 13:42, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Hello. My understanding was that Holden tells his story when he resides in the T.B. clinic. Where in the novel does it state that Holden is in a mental hospital? At first, I though that he told his story from a mental hospital. I also explained my rationale on the Talk page. ( Galaxycat ( talk) 22:50, 26 May 2012 (UTC))
Hello. It is quite frustrating because the novel is unclear where Holden resides when he talks to the psychoanalyst. When I stated that 'it was my understanding,' I did that to ensure that no one would come to the conclusion that I was vandalising the page. For example, I reverted an edit where a Wikipedia user deleted 'psychiatric facility' and replaced it with 'T.B. clinic.' I just hope that the message I placed on the Talk page will lead to fruitful discussions. Thank you for your prompt reply.

Hello Jpgordon. Please see User talk:EdJohnston#VanishedUser314159 / SA socking. In my opinion there is no reasonable doubt that these two IPs are being used by SA in violation of his ban. You did the indef block of his last named account that is currently in effect. I'm leaving you a note since I'd rather not be the only one who blocks these IPs. The last time around I logged the blocks in Wikipedia:ARBPS#Log of blocks and bans, after a complaint at WP:AE. I left this alone for a while but it now seems he is revert warring at Cold fusion (removed the section about alleged DARPA support of cold fusion three times over a week). He is indef blocked and was banned from the topic for one year, though the last ban has technically expired. He's been evading it all along. Lately all his IPs have been static.

"...Moulded into a professional act by manager Brian Epstein, their musical potential was enhanced by the creativity of producer George Martin. They gained popularity in the United Kingdom after their first single..." wikipedia-the beatles
Please check this, taken from the entry The Beatles. It is evident that the artwork in a contemporary setting has intermediation and management much importance and consideration. In the case of Joao Gilberto is no different because in 50-year career, 25 years were managed by ShowBras. So why we should not and can quote it in the encyclopedia entry. It is fair, legitimate, and is used naturally in other artists and conditions, as I remember above. I appreciate your review of the matter.-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 15:10, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
I'm glad to know that you know and like Joao. I have no interest in promoting my business via Wiki, what was I meant to mention the fact of having worked with the artist for 25 years, it is also part of the story of his life and it is important to know that reference, as well as in the case of the Beatles that I gave as an example. The site is part of Showbras and brings the best information, including English, about Joao and so I think it is legitimate provided as a reference and not seen as an attempt at self promotion. It is 25 years, not days or months, who has to know the Showbras already know, but the encyclopedia should bring the information. It seems to me to see and before I cut the check request and relevance.-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 15:27, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
Nice, you can have this on http://www.showbras.com.br/Artistas_e_Eventos.html, or http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=384865444858414&set=a.379967862014839.95783.100000048848934&type=3&theater ( with my photo and my wife- Veja Magazine) and all records made by Joao in the last 25 years, there is production or production executive my name or the name of Showbras. It is well known. But note that I did it anyway to fix that you asked, I removed references to Showbras until you agree, so there's no reason to insist on cutting what was published, I make mention of Showbras (even though this is a folly, as I have tried to demonstrate).-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 19:59, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
Ok, the indications I have are on site Showbras, it is legitimate. There are shown the discs, there are the posters and there is a portrayal of history. This is what I have, which disponhop and I'm ready to share. I hope that other contributions are added, but I see no reason to devalue mine. But I tried to just make these considerations direct to you on behalf of his analysis and I think no matter what I tried to remove the references to Showbras as you request. I have more to discuss, if you think you are not timely and cuts, I'd rather anticipate.-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 20:31, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

From COI WP
1-The definition of "too close" in this context is governed by common sense. An article about a little-known band should preferably not be written by the band's manager or a band member's spouse, and a biography should preferably not be written by the subject's spouse, parent, or offspring. However, an expert on a given subject is welcome to contribute to articles on that subject, even if that editor is deeply committed to the subject. 2- It is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply 3-Do not write about these things unless you are certain that a neutral editor would agree that your edits improve Wikipedia. 4-Conflict of interest is not a reason to delete an article, though other problems with the article arising from a conflict of interest may be valid criteria for deletion.---- 189.60.189.35 ( talk) 04:51, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Since you hold checkuser privileges, could you please investige that there is any connection between User:Iaaasi and User:Gigibec? This suspicious new user has abruptly emerged at the talk page of the article John Hunyadi which is the favourite article of Iaaasi. Based on said user's contributions to the talk page of the aforementioned article, it is definitely not a new user. I wouldn't ask you to do so, if I saw a quicker way to be investiged this account, but there is a discussion in progress on the talk page of the John Hunyadi article in which this new user also takes part, and asking for an spi for Iaaasi on the normal channel would not be conducted on time.

Thanks for unblocking me. You are right, the time of editing before reaching a common agreement for João Gilberto is over.

Lets talk, let's discuss and settle on the best and proper way on doing things, following your advice and recommendations. It is the only way. user:lfcohen
Dear Sirs, I would like to compliment these LCohen's words( He is not me! 's good that everyone knows), and who by agreeing with me in Joao's case here suffered penalties as blocking. I agree with his words, I think we should also create a positive environment for developing Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, but I must express my apprehension with such idea that editors can censor or impede the free flow of information, especially when it prevents, for example, information about an important artist has updated his entry to better serve researchers and interested parties. We can not accept a New Censorship in free world, better run other risks because the world knows the consequences of the establishment of such forums. It is a critical but also is a warning and everyone should carefully review positions in order to prevent this is to establish and develop. I'm sure this is a common thought, even among leading members of Wikipedia to whom I beg the license for urge reevaluate the procedures adopted.-- 189.60.164.201 ( talk) 12:21, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
If my interventions seem to want to change the Wikipedia, this is not my interest. I worry about the interpretation that censors utilize of general rules of Wikipedia. I asked you to your assessment of certain rules in the discussion area of the entry, and you abstained and did not answer it interprets those rules. If our greatest value is freedom, it is important to know how you interpret the rules and simply does not allow important new circulate information. With regard to your accusation of marketing, frankly I can not understand why of your insistence if I have already said that there is no problem in the Showbras not mention in the text, despite dismissing charges of interests, but I do not want to discuss it now, and you know that. Why not move forward and provide information for example about the passage of the artist in Japan?-- Gil Lopes ( talk) 16:34, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

My edits are justified in the talk page. Rather than respond, he's simply adopted the tactic of reversion. I do not know how to report his edits as "vandalism."

And they do. I have got to say that it still appears to me that your and MastCell's actions are not consistent with the block policy as it is written. I don't know if you and MastCell are wrong, or if the way the policy is written is wrong. But one of those has to be the case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by William Jockusch ( talk • contribs) 20:47, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Jpgordon.

The following words are from user Sunny Singh (DAV) on the behalf of the head of "Internet Cafe" Mr. Sunil Verma -
The reason for block is "Abusing multiple accounts". Jpgordon misunderstood that a single user has created a number of accounts with different names. But he is not aware of the truth. Different persons are using their own account from this computer they are not able to edit Wikipedia. This computer doesn't belong to a single Wikipedia user, but it's a "Internet Cafe's" computer. This computer is one of the 43 computers lying below this roof. We call this computer with a name i.e., Wikipedia. There are also some computers with different names like Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, C++, Software, etc. A number of people come to this Internet Cafe and use Wikipedia, Facebook, etc. People who want to use Wikipedia, use this computer. People who want to use Facebook, use Facebook computer. The person who owns this Cafe charge us 25 rupees per hour for using Wikipedia computer. Persons using Facebook have to pay 35 rupees for an hour. So, here is no one who has multiple accounts. Multiple accounts being used from this computer are of different persons. Some users use this computer named as "Wikipedia" to read articles, some for making edits and many users came to ask questions on Reference Desk. I, myself, come to ask questions. Jpgordon has blocked all accounts using this computer without asking them or telling them what he is thinking. I know any administrator will do the same thing. But Jpgordon has done this mistakenly. I am not the head of this cafe instead I am a customer. Since I am the oldest user of Wikipedia from this computer, the head of this Cafe asked me to unblock the blocked accounts so that he would restore his customers. I have explained the whole story and you now know what is the real truth. So, please, restore (=unblock) all accounts (of different people) being used from this Cafe computer as soon as possible. Thank you! 27.62.140.224 ( talk) 16:42, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

I think I am experiencing administrator abuse and an administrator who is trying to censor a topic and suppress views on it. How do go I about reporting this? I know nothing serious will happen because wikipedia is a bureaucracy but I want to have it on record.
The administrator Qwyrxian is displaying some bias views towards right wing hindu nationalist organizations which have been committed atrocities documented by human rights watch.

Hi, you've just deleted an edit I did to the Steven Soderbergh page, and IMO your justification is just not up to snuff. You say that the table is "real hard to read -- a lot harder to glean information from. The list is easier". Well I happen to disagree completely. I personally find the table is a lot easier to read and gives more information more quickly than the list which I found appaling, or else I wouldn't have spent hours making said table.

See [10]
Rejecting an unblock request by saying something that essentially boils down to TL;DR is understandable given how long of a read the request is. If I were you, I wouldn't read it either. I admit even as I'm writing this that I haven't even skimmed that person's first sentence.
But you shouldn't reject it without reading. You could pass it to someone else. Or show that you tried to. There are people who are willing to read something written for them, considering they believe other people's time is worth as much as theirs, and other people spent much more time writing. If this person spends all the time writing it, it's something meaningful to someone, and people who see themselves as equals will be at least interested in what that person thinks is meaningful.
Everything you did was understandable. You ain't wrong. But any human you do this to will be upset and maybe one day be a real vandal to Wikipedia--you know, like those famous ones.
We all go into these last ditch peace attempts sometimes in our lives, and beat the dead horse when we shouldn't. And we're all lucky when we did it, that no one took the opportunity to throw a slap in the face. Because that could happen to anyone, and make him/her resort to a vendetta.

Thanks for the fast answer… can I just delete the full request block?
Would the CheckUser procedure and emailing details be appropriate where an IP address and a username probably represent the same editor, a COI is apparently present, an article about an organization is affected, the IP address is probably shared in the organization, and outing is a concern? No vandalism, BLP contentiousness, casting of multiple votes as sock puppets, disruption, or editing as if aware of the COI constraint is present (the editor may have a COI but not know Wikimedia's view of COI) and no block or ban is appropriate (good faith should continue be assumed). The article has some promotionality and POV problems. Someone with that username edited not this article but one other article on English Wikipedia (I didn't check other projects), suggesting that they may specifically wish not to be outed. The article is being edited from an IP, which I geolocated last Sunday to at or near the organization's postal address. The IP address is not single-purpose, but the IP's editing is mostly to the article. The username editor wrote that s/he "work[s] for" the organization. Because of the risk of outing, I have not tagged the article, the article's talk page, the IP talk page, or the username talk page and prefer not to identify the username, the IP address, or the article publicly here on my own. Evidence that the IP address is being used by the editor with that username was found in a context in which spoofing is possible, if not very likely; stating the evidence here would make outing much easier, so I'm omitting it at the moment. I can fix some of the article's promotionality and POV problems but the article seems to be watchlisted or on an RSS/Atom feed so some fixes may come from other editors, so I have not edited the article for this purpose yet, preferring to do so when I can either tag with COI notices or be satisfied that there probably is no COI. I previously raised the issue at WT:COI but have not raised it at COI/N. I chose you by trying to select a CheckUser editor more or less randomly from among editors I don't know.

Hi, Josh, I am an uninvolved bystander looking into the details of the Ahnoneemoos ban. You recently reviewed the ban notice over on his talkpage, so I figured I would contact you about it. I had a brief conversation about the incident with SilkTork (over on their talkpage), but did not really get the answers to my questions. I'm more generally interested in the ban-hammer on wikipedia, rather than the details of this particular issue -- I consider it more of a case study that will help me figure out the overall shape of the process, as opposed to something directly relevant to my own wikipedia interests. I have not had any contact with Ahnoneemoos directly (I found out they were banned by accident after reading one of their essays and then visiting their talkpage to ask them a question). I have also not had contact with SilkTork excepting today of course, or any of the other editors involved in the pre-ban dispute over on the page about Mayors in Puerto Rico. Besides researching the use of bans for my own knowledge of how wikipedia works under the hood, I am of course interested in seeing wikipedia function correctly, including treating folks fairly. Whether that occurred in this particular incident, is unclear to me; I'm still slogging through the edit-history of the involved pages. Do you have a few minutes to give me an independent admin's perspective on banning as a tool? Thanks.

"The site of the Battle of Gettysburg was the scene for an unforgettable[1] 1863 speech (by then-President Lincoln) during the Civil War. The New York Times reported[2] that in 2011 President Obama was very moved."
counter-edit:

Note that I slightly corrupted the validity of the sourced portion, changing from unforgettably-Presidential to straight out unforgettable. Naughty! Plus, fully admit this is a contrived example... but I've seen things like it. In particular, wikipedia articles (as opposed to wikinews blurbs) get out of whack when people do *not* edit them with consciousness that wikipedia is intended for the ages.
"Last week, LikwidBuzzsaw's lead guitarist was incarcerated[3] for possession of illicit chemicals; the remainder of their concert-dates this year are reportedly[4] in jeopardy."
edit:
"During the week of October 7th 2013, LikwidBuzzsaw's lead guitarist Fuzzy Mullet was incarcerated[3] for possession of illicit chemicals; the remainder of their 2013 concert-dates were reportedly[4] in jeopardy."
counter-edit:
?
If you fail to specify the name of the lead guitarist, then you end up needing to say then-lead-guitarist, at some point. Ditto if you don't specify the October 7th 2013 in the prefatory phrase. I get annoyed when people delete stuff which is merely 'old' by some personal standard. Notability is not temporary. Articles that cover LikwidBuzzsaw as if the current band-members and this year's tour-dates are the *only* notable things about the topic drive me nuts. :-)
p.s. Interestingly, although I disagree with you somewhat about thenectomy, I'm right with you on the over-use of ironically... and ironically, I'm right there with you on the over-use of the word interestingly.
p.p.s. Since this is a talkpage rather than an article, I fully admit I was too lazy to look up the year of Lincoln's speech, or Obama's quotation... let alone the relevant dates for Fuzzy Mullet's jail sentence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.192.84.101 ( talk) 03:20, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments on my userpage. I had a bit of a queasy feeling about that, and probably should have followed the process. My feeling is, though, that I am blocking the user for edit warring - and this user has been warned repeatedly by me and another editor. I am not blocking the user over a content dispute -- I am trying to engage them in a discussion about that dispute, but they are refusing to participate. The user had engaged in Dispute Resolution then abandoned it when they couldn't get their way. I realise that it would be better form to go through WP:AN3, but I am dealing with someone who does not play well with others, so I am taking what I think is a reasonable step. If this recurs, I will go through AN3. regards, Ground Zero | t 22:42, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello this is Hikestents22, /info/en/?search=User:Hikestents22, I am not trying to evade my block I just want to talk.
Here is my story I reverted a guy a few times who was changing history and sourced facts, I did not break the 3rr rule or any wikipedia rule, however I should have probably taken it to the discussion page first. I created a 2nd account, with almost the exact same name, to talk to the admin who had blocked me without showing my ip, that was not possible however and I made no edits with that account. Now If you could please talk to me so that we can get this mess straightened out it would be very much appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.235.56.17 ( talk) 15:44, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
On skimming the requests-for-unblock category I came across the request by Beastra. Daniel Case blocked this editor for "spamming" back in September. I've checked the contributions (there are no deleted contributions) and as far as I can see on-wiki, the "spamming" consisted of one edit. In that edit, the user added a link to the BLP of a notable but lesser-known writer, linking to an interview of that writer contained in the editor's personal blog.
Unless I have missed something (I've asked Daniel on his talk to comment, but he is away), I am not sure that this edit was fairly categorized as "spam." We obviously don't want editors whose purpose on-wiki is to add or spam links to their own sites, but the linked blog post was an interview with the BLP subject herself. The link was a useful contribution to the article especially given that all of the other sources were several years old. I am not certain that adding this single link to the article constituted a policy violation. While it might have been better practice to propose the link on the talkpage, this is a lesser-trafficked article and there can be no assurance that such a suggestion would have received a timely response.
More importantly, the single "spam" edit was the user's very first edit. There was no reason to assume that she was familiar with our policies concerning spamming or COI editing. After Xlinkbot reverted the link (presumably because of "Wordpress" in the URL) and advised the editor of the relevant policy and guideline pages, she did not add the link again or do anything else inappropriate. (In fact, she didn't make any other edits at all.) I would not have blocked her based on this limited history.
The other day, this still-new editor posted an unblock request, which you declined because she had not promised to refrain from posting links to her blog. I am not sure that such an absolute and blanket request was necessary, but in any event, she has posted another unblock request in which she gives the assurance you asked of her. Thus, I would welcome your either unblocking her now or confirming that you don't mind if I do. Thanks and regards, Newyorkbrad ( talk) 20:38, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello. I'm posting here for advice because I don't know what to do at this point, and you have been involved with this user in one of the pages at Alempijević.
For the past 2 months, this user has been persisting in changing redirects from Serbian family names into the current form, of writing that it's a family name and mentioning the former redirect title as 'one of the people with the names.' The user has changed the pages Alempijević, Brajić, Ćesarević, Dokmanović, and Đujić. I have continually reverted the edits, informing the editor on his talk page that the type of pages he's trying to create (I assumed that to be disambiguation) cannot be created for a family-name page with one Wikipedia entry. Since then, the user has accused me of 'vandalizing' - even though I informed them of WP:VAN, used the word 'may' in Category:Redirects from surnames to justify that he could go around changing the pages to his liking, and has since accused me and other editors as being 'Serbophobic' as seen here.
I've attempted to discuss the issue, both with the editor and on my talk page, with no success. More details about the case can be seen Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive844#User:59.41.252.228, which has been archived without much discussion. I made a last-ditch attempt after that to post on his talk page, but with no avail. I've been so insistent on this issue since it appears that the user will go around changing all the redirects from Serbian surnames to his liking, according to his posts on my talk page. Please advise on further actions. KJ «Click Here» 05:31, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

I am faced with a persistent revert attacker reverting all the hard work I do on this page. All that person (Ogress) does is simply revert making no effort to rewrite. They make very subtle personal attacks on me and then pretend to be abused when I reply with any explanation. I'd like you to PLEASE put a halt to this by giving semi-protection to the page in that there should be no reverting war involved but proper editing. The last time around it was purposely done to anger me and then get me to be warned by you - the entire 2 sections were deleted JUST LIKE THAT! Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 18:06, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
I hardly used 6 to 8 words interspersed in caps in a write up of probably about 500 words in my last post on your Talk Page and so I did not know that even that is considered yelling and screaming. I only used them for emphasis. Also, I did not know that you automatically get to see what I write on my Talk page unless you have manually opted to watch my page - and that's what I wanted to know but you still have not told me whether you have opted to Watch my Talk Page or not. Your polite guidance to me could have a gone a long way for both items. I am also not asking you for help with my content but I am asking for help in my dispute with Ogress and there is a huge difference between the two which you well know as an Admin that one involves content development but the other is content protection from improper deleting. What I am asking of you - and very politely - is that you don't favor Ogress by letting her win the revert war simply because all she has to do is use the delete button whereas I put in a back-breaking (literally) amount of time to write even a paragraph with care and research in an environment where blackouts occur every 3 or 4 hours without warning. That's all I demonstrated to you in my last write up to show how a paragraph can be easily messed up to give a completely different picture but you don't seem to care about that at all and seem to favor Ogress just because you have black marked me once for using angry words in all my years here. I only want you to be fair in your admin instead of blindly favoring one side in a revert war without caring to see who is right or wrong and who started it in the first place - surely you owe that to Wiki as an Admin? I had honestly thot of stopping Wiki editing because I am too old to work long hours at the age of 70 and your behavior (more than Ogress' behavior) is making me think again. Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 00:22, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for telling me this because clearly I am unaware of how I appear to others on the Wiki from the way you describe my edits. Okay, so what's the solution? I suggest you take a few moments to take a paragraph or two that you have found unacceptable and show me like I have been showing to jpgordon and you and others why I do what I do from the long paras I have written so far. So please reciprocate that favor and show me where I went wrong from a para or two from the Nizari Wiki Page if possible (but not my angry words at Ogress or writing in caps on Talk Pages because I have gotten those messages now from jpgordon and will be careful - ultra careful - about those two things in the future. Your help - and that of jpgordon - in this matter can be crucial to my staying on board the Wiki because I am asking myself now the question: "What is the point of back-breaking toil if anyone can simply arrive on the scene, call themselves a "smasher" and smash things up - unless I am myself writing copy that is utterly unacceptable as you say it is. Thanks and I look forward to your telling me just exactly what you have read on my edits that have made you so displeased with my writing. Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 01:22, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
You told me that since I was warned by Ogress not to revert her change then that had made it a second warning to me. She implied that the first warning was from you. Had I reverted her edit then you would have blocked me for sure. Am I correct? So by your threat to me to block me and her threat to me to block me you both together make a team of two and thus have won the day and got me to freeze up from reverting on the Nizari Wiki Page. So then where is the Admin impartiality in the matter? But as you so eloquently say, "... and I don't care." Next you say I am trying to add too much material at one go by reverting Ogress' deletion of two entire articles that had been there for months. But you have conveniently ignored the fact that Ogress had removed at a single click all that much material that was already existing there in the first place! She had simply removed it all including the references! So I am wrong when I try to add back all that was removed by her but Ogress is doing no wrong by deleting in that reckless if not vicious, manner? And then you actually say you don't care as to why it was all removed in the first place by Ogress even tho I tell you why!
Isn't best practice relevant to Wiki Admin? After all Wiki goes out of its way on the RFC (Request foe Comments) page to say so to the extent that if it finds out that the commentators have been brought in by any one party to influence the outcome then those comments will be voided. But you are Ogress' best ally on the Nizari Talk Page and you are extremely rude in the way you speak to me by saying "... and I don't care". So may I ask you why you are monitoring the RFC for the Nizari Page and why you will be giving the resulting decision at the end of the discussion? So what do you care about if all you care is to make sure that not only does Ogress have her way on the editing side of the Nizari Page during the discussion and after it you will make sure she gets her way in your decision that will follow. Don't you care that you are so obviously biased in her favor and completely prejudiced against me? I'll put this on the Nizari RFC to see what others think about all this. Next point: I tell Ogress on her Talk Page to tell me the exact words I had used that had initially made her tell me so rudely and brazenly on my User Talk Page that I had abused her. Of course she ignored this request because it would show that she had used the same type of commenting in the same public place! Next point: I give you an example of how an old edit had been changed by Ogress because of her lack of understanding of the word "Imamim-Mubeen" and that I had replaced that paragraph with a new one because I realized that if Muslims like Ogress did not know &/or understand that concept then what to say of everyone else? So I edited a new paragraph in its place and put the word back in. Ogress seems to have accepted it so far - but that's only because her attempt to edit out the aforesaid word (Mubeen) as a useless appendage that it had alerted me to the need for an explanatory type of paragraph to explain its meaning. But these types of paragraphs are extremely hard to source. Next: when I told you on your Talk Page why such information from oral sources (hymns and epistles) is extremely difficult to source [which Ogress makes a point to emphasize every time she deletes something by calling it either unsourced, or "outdated references" (what the heck does "outdated references" mean?) or "essay writing"] you rudely told me not to bother you on your Talk Page. Can't you be polite when you are supposed to be a mentor on Wiki? Here below is the concerned paragraph so that now you will hopefully see that it is very relevant indeed to the RFC and the way Ogress works to remove things (which is easier to do) and the way I work to add things (which is much, much harder to do): The Nizari Ismaili tradition is unique in that it is the only tradition that bears witness to the continuity of the hereditary divine authority vested in the Imamim-Mubeen. In all the Sunni traditions, the Imamim-Mubeen is interpreted as the Quran itself; and in all the Shia traditions except the Shia Nizari tradition it is interpreted as the last Imam of a dynasty who went into occultation. However, in Nizari Ismailism, it is interpreted as a living human Imam who is never ever in occultation and who will never ever be absent from this world but will always be perpetually present and physically alive designated as the inheritor of the Imamat from father to son. This tradition has continued over 1400 years from Ali to the present Imam-of-the-Time, Prince Karim al-Hussaini Aga Khan, the 49th hereditary Imam and direct descendant of Mohammad through Ali and Zahra. Next you tell me off that I yell at you even tho it was about 7 words in 500 used as emphasis. Couldn't you have simply said, "Hey Salim, don't use the upper case at all because it is considered yelling," and I would have been mentored in the etiquette of the letters usage. Instead you behaved as if a red flag had been shown to a bull and after that nothing else in my post to you mattered except the red that was now before your eyes because of a simple error in the use of the caps. Do you at all realize that your own behavior is unforgivable? Last point: I looked up Panda's Talk Page and lo and behold, I saw that Panda also behaves in the same way you do because there is a post there from a person (I think it was "Mindy" or some such name) and she actually told Panda that altho he had supported her in her contention with another person, it was wrong to block him because in fact she had realized from the man's appeal to her that the fault had been hers to begin with. My goodness! Panda had blocked a poor fellow from the page in question and was least bothered to look into the matter when appealed to (just like you!) and it took the woman called Mindy to reverse Panda's decision and unblock the fellow by accepting her own mistake without anyone's pressure on her! What a great person and what a poor showing of Admin ability to monitor best practice on Wiki. Therefore, may I ask what do you care about and what is it you are monitoring on the Nizari Talk Page? Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 19:14, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
How can I know what you write on your talk page? Aren't you supposed to write on my Talk Page or in reply to me on jpgordon's page? As it is he discourages everyone from writing on his Talk Page. I checked your Talk Page and the item I referred to has gone - either your bot has deleted it or archived it automatically. If you really want to find the item then look into your most recent archives. I suggest you post on my talk page from now on because I am not watching your page. Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 20:47, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
I did not write anything on your page and therefore I had no need to watch your page. Also you can easily delete stuff on your talk page and I suggest you back off because I believe you have done that and are now harassing me. If you continue to harass me then I shall take you and this matter of deleting stuff on your talk page and then blaming me for pointing out the truth about one of your blocking adventures to an Admin superior to you. It should not be difficult for them to look into your history and dig out "Mindy" or whoever when I describe the circumstance. How the heck would I have known about it if it was there for everyone to read on your talk page?? Salim e-a ebrahim ( talk) 21:05, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

Hello Jpgordon, I am Jon, the original contributor to the WZ-10 attack helicopter page, recently the page has came under attack by Pvpoodle. He repeatedly edited the page using his own personal opinions and old sources which came from western news media, he claimed that they are multiple sources but they are not, they all contain the same materials and were all written from March,7th, 2013 to March, 8th, 2013. Just three month after the Chinese first officially revealed the WZ-10 to the general public. The sources he posted have since then been debunked by Chinese and Russian news media and Kamov's chief designer have recanted his words, yet Pvpoodle keep trying to push it through. Another user named Shulinjiang attempted to debunk Pvpoodle's relentless acts by providing more update Chinese and Russian sources. Yet Pvpoodle did not stop. He keep posting destructive and derogatory comments and even attempt to change the page's chief designer whom was indeed Wu Xingming to Kamov! The page has become a personal battle ground for Pvpoodle.
I have spoke to The_Last_Arietta a Wikipedian about this issue and he allowed me to revert Pvpoddle's destructive eddits but he is not an admin. I really suspect that once Pvpoodle is unbanned, he will return again to keep editing Wikipedia pages in his own way without any regard to truth or not. He has shown a personal pattern of doing so in the past and was proven on the "2001 Bangladeshi-Indian border skirmish" page. It was literally his own battle ground.
I am the original contributor on the WZ-10 page, having spend hours if not days making constructive materials and you can see that the page was well written and described in details, backed up with more creditable Chinese sources and even pictures. I did this not for any reward but just for the better good of Wikipedia. Please, if you can protect the WZ-10 page from Pvpoodle ever making disruptive edits again. It will be much appreciated.
Thank you

Thank you, IZAK ( talk) 08:43, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
There is a request at WP:RMTR to move User talk:Notwillywanka/delete back to the normal talk page location. This is straightforward but it needs a history merge. I'll do this if you don't object, or you can proceed with the merge yourself. I was going to move-protect the talk page after finishing. Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 17:49, 14 September 2014 (UTC)
You revreted a change I made with no explanation. I'd like one. Thanks.
I would note that as the article stands now it at the very least requires a citation because the article given as a citation both refutes the generalization in the statement *and* wasn't written during Kwanzaa. Kevin Lyda ( talk) 20:38, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
This response is far too dismissive. Gamaliel, who blocked Tabasco, and Dreadstar, who declined the second unblock request, are both WP:INVOLVED regarding the relevant topic area with Gamaliel being personally involved regarding the editor in question. Your statement that merely copied Dreadstar's is not even correct as Tabasco did address the edit in question. An unblock request should not be reviewed with such flippant language even if you find the editor's request aggravating.-- The Devil's Advocate tlk. cntrb. 06:21, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
You didn't find my changes constructive because you are a cheese dick. Legality and scheduling a substance are two different things airhead. The DEA isn't allowed to make up its own laws. Arguing that it is allowed to do so because people who sold the drug claiming it to be heroin have been successfully prosecuted only supports my claim on why they were successfully prosecuted had to do with what they were doing and not a result of possessing acetylfentanyl. But I don't expect half the morons that contribute to this train wreck of a website to actually provide correct contributions. Go give yourself a pat on the back for making the idiots who think wikipedia is a good "source" of information that much stupider. Or maybe you just want that so you have company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.36.10.247 ( talk) 14:11, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
Hello, I am very sorry to disrupt, but I'm not exactly sure where I would go with this. I was looking for checkusers and found you on the list. You most likely know more on this subject than I do. If you look at the revision history [16] you will notice that 3 IP addresses have vandalized today, and they are very similar. 205.122.7.140, 205.122.7.141, 205.122.7.142. I'm not an expert with computers, so I'm not sure what this means. I just know that it would appear to be the same range. They seemed to have stopped so not really an emergency. I'm not requesting a checkuser report on them (since I have no evidence), I just wish to know what they are, how to tell what they are, and what I should do if I ever come across IP addresses like that again. - Kanashimi Hyoketsu 18:21, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jpgordon, My source for my edit was my own research into the subject. I used the formula for the minor pentatonic scale which is 1,3,4,5,7 of the minor scale (you can Google that on the net for source) to calculate an E minor pentatonic scale. This had a result of E, G, A, B, D, E which is matches perfectly all the notes of Standard Tuning though the order isn't correct. Once you reorder the scale it comes out to E, A, D, G, B, E which is Standard Tuning.
For reference, a Minor E scale consists of E, F#, G, A, B, C, D, E. The minor pentatonic scale formula (1,3,4,5,7) applied to the E minor scale would be E, F#, G, A, B, C, D, E <- this is in the second octave, there for this would be considered per the formula as 1 as well. I am sorry I didn't give a source in the first place and I will be better about that next time. - SGA314 ( talk) 19:12, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Dear Jpgordon, I'm a new page patroller.

No other editor is also looking at it and I do not know what to do with it. Please have a look and take necessary action or advise me what to do next. Thank you, Mr RD 18:00, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

I don't want AHLM13 to be unblocked but lots of proxy IPs and socks are launching personal attacks posing as Undertrialryryr socks and AHLM13 socks. Three times my account was logged off even though i didn't click log out. I changed the password and disconnected my net connection;after that it stopped. I am telling you: if in future, I post offensive derogatory messages on people's talk pages,then please make sure that my E-Mail address that i have registered is not changed.That's the only way i can regian my account . AHLM13 claimed he was hacked or he had BROTHER. I don't know about him but even @ Mar4d: and @ Lukeno94: is doubting about this hacker in ANI. I have reasons to believe all these cases mentioned below are inter-related: A)- In this SPI DoRD mentioned "ЗОРДАНЛИГХТЕР, plus a bunch more, are almost certainly the same as the ones I listed above, who may or may not (I'm leaning not) belong to this master." Technically they were not matching with Undertrialryryr. And i found their editing very different from the previous accounts.Vanjagenije accepted he was not sure but they were tagged "Based on the behavior".
B)- AHLM13's account abused Babitaarora in the same manner কসমিক এম্পারার attacked her, {私はあなたにを愛し did the same thing, unknown ip, another Undertrialryryr sock
II- 49.156.159.82 III- 14.139.56.13 Now check the last line of this offensive comment on Titodutta's talk page by কসমিক এম্পারার which is very similar to this edit made today by 14.139.56.13 . Those who can read Bengali will understand that they are same. All three are proxy IPs, as i checked them on internet IP Location finder and they must be blocked indefinitely, not for few hours or one week.
D)- Same guy who removed Babitaarora's complain on Materialscientist's talk page about Undertrialryryr socks. I am sure this is not Undertrialryryr.
E)- Unblock request by 115ash is the same comment he made on Ged UK's talk page with IP-78.149.203.69, and this IP is similar to this IP-78.149.127.141 which we believe is AHLM13 as we found that his English is similar to AHLM13.
They don't match with the contributions and editing style of these sock accounts in other languages.
later on few socks whose names were in Punjabi language attacked Babitaarora. Their offensive comments and edit history were deleted by Materialscientist,Yunshui and Albertsquare. They were tagged as Undertrialryryr socks. I don't know whether the Ips were same or most obviously the same reason previous socks were blocked due to behavioral evidence. Once DoRD told me that personal details of any user can't be made public which includes IP address, but Check user should at least tell whether these latest sockaccounts : ਬਬੀਤਾ ਦੇ ਪਤੀ, Lundbaaz King Shaan Shahid, Pakistani girl's breasts, ਬਬੀਤਾ ਦੇ ਪਤੀ and ਕਾਸ੍ਮਿਕ ਏਮ੍ਪੇਰੋਰ matches with the IPs of Undertrialryryr, ZORDANLIGHTER, Blackwizard2000, or they match with unconfirmed socks written in other languages.

Thanks User:Ravensfire and User:OccultZone, but I am not a a sockpuppet of those accounts, plaese see the ANI, where people are supporting me. So far I did some Ip edits and created just one account (AHLM85), but just for to let know people that I am innocent. Regarding you Admin JPGORDON, can you tell me what can i do? I am alone and I have nowhere to go. Hackers or vandals are not stopping to create account, and some people think that those are me. I tried to do " unblock requests system (UTRS)", but they sent an email by telling me that now is too late, as I was not a user who registered as LIFE COMMITTED IDENTITY (or something like this). What do i need to do, as I am innocent. It is true that I have to be careful my wiki account's security, but I changed my password and still hacker log on. I contacted some check users, but they are not answering me. What can I do? Can someone unblock me as I have done nothing bad. I promise that I will be more careful regardless of my account. But if the hacker log in on my account again, then I promise that I will leave wikipedia. But can another chance be given to me? Even other users (those invilved in ANI) are having problems with their accounts. Thanks. -- 78.149.119.13 ( talk) 11:47, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi Jpgordon, I wanted to explain why I undid your edit at Cliff Edwards. The lede was half-devoted to his troubled personal life, yet that section makes up a very small part of the article body, and it is not his troubled personal life for which he is known. I did not remove this part of the lede, but I agree with the IP editor who did. It also undid a dab change I had made. I hope that sufficiently explains my rationale. All the best, 78.26 ( spin me / revolutions) 15:02, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
You previously did the following blocks for sockpuppets [18], [19],and possibly some of these others [20]. A new request for a sockpuppet investigation [21] has been initiated on the same issues and the same article ( Leo Frank). That investigation is going nowhere and I have been advised by another administrator that the behavioral aspects may be too complex to be accepted. In any event, with the opening of an RFC on the Frank discussion page, the similarities between Machn, GingerBreadHarlot, the current IP, and even another user (Gulbenk) seem clear and their postings have accelerated since the referral was made. In any event, it seems like you are in a better position than most to wade in and make a determination if you should so choose. Thanks for any attention you devote to this.

Hello User:jpgordon,
You recently unblocked an IP address 141.217.233.69 that I requested because I was going through some history and noticed that particular IP was blocked (You said it wasn't but still unblocked for sake of me asking) and it had a lengthy talk page. I no longer use that IP and have a registered account. You can see from my history that I have had sock puppet issues in the past but I have been doing the right thing after being unblocked. I do not believe I violated any Wikipedia policy but I was just cleaning that talk page which I used. If that is not okay, please let me know. For times sake, I have undid it to show that I really mind that stuff there or should I just archive those unblock request and talk page discussions on my talk page. There is a user name kapil.xerox who I have had issues with in the past regarding a group called BAPS. That user is trying to get me blocked again for this issue and accusing me of sock puppetry when I have not done anything wrong and trying to use my section blanking as evidence to block me because he disagrees with any criticism towards their group. In particular recently, for the article titled Akshardham Delhi (a monument made by BAPS), he recently popped out of no where to try to remove legitimate sourced by over a dozen environmental criticisms regarding the monument. Please see [22] and the talk page [23]. When I updated the books for the citations and added several more citations, he contacted another admin as you see here to [24] to remove me from Wikipedia. I believe this is not okay especially since this user has a severe conflict of interest in this subject who also was blocked when I was going through my issues. I hate taking up time on these issues and there are bigger fish to fry here but would please take a look at this because it is getting frustrating. Swamiblue ( talk) 06:28, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
Looking back it turns out to be a rant then actual questions. These are my two questions:
Am I violating any rule by that can result in blocking if I blank out the user pager for the IP address 141.217.233.69?
Would you talk a look at the Akshardham (Delhi) article because if the environmental part is properly allow to be there? I am being accused of edit warring with the environmental part when the users have not reached consensus and majority are apart of that group to portray their sect in only a positive light. Here is it: [25]

Dear Jpgordon, I am hereby requesting your possible intervention over the highly controversial Planned Parenthood Talk Page [26], specially the last few posts, where we have seen a lot of edit warring and even insults (lobbied at me, quite the new user around here by a long-time Editor) I am sorry of this seems like a cold call but after searching for a way to contact Administrators, I found "alexz's tools" and it showed me, by order of recent activities, "Admins willing to make difficult blocks". You were the second one in the list, thus I am trying to contact you (I decided on skipping Nihonjoe since he seemed to have quite the pointed interest on Japan and Anime, which is perfectly fine, but you seemed to have a more "general" experience (proof: [27]))
I am sorry if this is inappropriate of me, to ask of you to intervene. I do not know who is the "main" Administrator overseeing said controversial Talk Page.
Note: Is there anything I can do besides complain on the insulting editors own Talk Page? Source: Established editor JBL insulting me: [28].
