...but I'm still disturbed by it so I'm bringing it to AN/K. There's this user JohnLeoWalsh. His user page is just the weirdest frickin' thing. It's not horrible or anything, but I don't think it's got any WP value at all..and his whole edit history--as well as the edit history of his logged-out IP 74.32.51.238--consists of one of two things: either a)edits to this weird-ass user page, or b)addition of deliberate and subtle errors to articles about TV shows/networks. I found a single legit edit, under another IP 74.32.6.70--the Jay Jay the Jet Plane edits. But that's it, and most of the rest of what he spends his time on here is this "God's People/Pets" thing. He doesn't seem to answer questions on his talkpage, either.
I know I'm being weird, here, but...seriously. Something about this smells really odd to me. Thanks!! Gladys J Cortez 16:53, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi there is an IP address probably from India which is wreaking havoc with some of the Bollywood articles. See his contributions. He persistently keeps adding POV to an article or glorifying an actor or film further than they or it actually is. It is a major nuisance for the editors on here who work on Indian cinema articles to have to keep reverting him day in day out just to maintain some sense of article neutrality. Could you please warn him and try to make him aware of wikipedias neutrality and why his edits which are intent on putting POV or glorifying the subject of the article unnecesarily may be construed as agains tpolicy and therfore vandalism. Its doing my nut it keeoing track of him. User:Shshshsh (Shahid) raise my awarenss of it initially and other editors such as totalfilmi99 have to keep reverting him e.g here. Should he be blocked do you think? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 09:11, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi there, a while back, you did excellent work in carrying out some informal mediation on Talk:Wales about how to name the various bits of the United Kingdon. Part of your solution relied on a table of reliable sources that had been constructed on my initiative and placed in Subdivisions of the United Kingdom. Since then, there has been numerous changes made to the table and its place, so that now its present version lies in Countries of the United Kingdom. There is now a suggestion that it be removed entirely! Since your solution to the Wales problem relied on the presence of the table, I wonder if you could consider the issue of removal of the table? You can see the discussion on Talk:Countries of the United Kingdom#Poll on merge. Thanks. DDStretch (talk) 14:04, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for your effective co-nom in my RFA. I must say, while I was pretty sure you would support me, I was not expecting such a, um, vehement support. I humbly thank you, and I hope that it is possible for me to live up to such a tremendous statement.

Hi yes I've been trying to get hold of people for numerous reasons but many people seme to be away. Yes he has just been blocked. Hope you had a good break. I also needed your help with moving some pages for the centrla american countries but thats also been sorted now. Sometimes I could really use the tools!! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 17:46, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Oh actually there was something else. See Category:Cities, towns and villages in Thailand. There are many articles which are unnecessily ending in (town) or city. COuld you move them back to the plain names without the ending. The provincial name ends in Province anyway so naming something ... town is incorrect. E.g Chanthaburi town should be moved back to Chanthaburi which is in Chanthaburi Province, Could you help? Evidence of this is buri or puri Chanthaburi means town so that article at present is town town. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 17:51, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Yes thats perfect thanks. I don't know who moved them but the suffix was unnecessary. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 18:02, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Many thanks. Yes I have no idea why he thought it was necessary. Hat notes can disinguish the difference anyway. I've somehow managed to notch up around 1000 edits adding templates I created and categories to all the municipalities in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama are next. When I've finished and done Mexico we should have every municipalitiy in central america undercontrol and order and in the position to expand some of these stubs which have been lying around since 2004. I;m leanring spanish so it is also a learning process. Yesterday I started University of El Salvador and expanded Apastepeque by translating from spanish wikipedia! Central America is a grey area of wikipedia and there are some facinating places with rich histories and cultures ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 18:57, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
If you or Fritz or anybody wants to lend to Bald One a hand if you see Wikipedia:WikiProject Nicaragua/Department templates I need to fill out the templates with the municipalities. Basically it is a cut and paste job from the respective department article and paste it into the template e.g like Template:Managua Department. I;m nearing the end of Honduras in terms of adding templates but Nicarague will be next. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000?> 19:42, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Thats great if you could lend a hand. Check my editing history over last two days its a monster!! I;ve just finished adding the templates to Honduras. If the Nicaraguan ones are waiting, after setting up the municipal categories by department it should be ready to plough through tomorrow. COsta Rica is going to be a biggy as we need templates not only for the provinces but for the individual cantons and is it quite developed on here. There are for example 10-16 cantons in a province on average, then each canton often has 20 districts/municipalities!! Soon enough all the central american places will have finoboxes and basic referenced data soon enough. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:11, 28 July 2008 (UTC) Perfecto amigo gracias. Eventually the tenplates will probably be fleshed out with articles on other topics related to them such as landmarks/history.people etc.But municipalities is all at present. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:21, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Cheers. I've just nabbed Chinandega from spanish wikipedia. Once translated this is EXACTLY the sort of content I keep talking about that should be on here in detail for all these places rather than one line uncategorized sub stubs. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 21:28, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Dear Keeper and associated TPS, would someone be willing to help me get an article to GA status? I promise to do all the work myself, but what I really need is a mentor who understands the process and expectations, who can give me detailed feedback iteratively as I integrate suggestions. I've got a couple of articles in mind ( Whedonesque.com and James Dobson), but am willing to work on another article that reasonably interests me. i.e., I'm willing to work on an article of the mentor's choice in exchange for the associated education and training. Thanks! Jclemens ( talk) 20:55, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Keeper. I'm hoping the admins that hobnob on your page an are learned in the ways of WP:BLP are able to give input to a situation. From this discussion on the talk page for Charlie Crist spawned a disagreement over the placement of WikiProject LGBT studies' template on the article's talk page. Though Crist has been rumored to be gay (something I think is a political ploy), the template has been removed due to BLP concerns. Does merely the placement of a wikiproject template on a talk page have any bearing on information in the article? I posed the question at Talk:BLP, and I'm surprised it has gone unanswered. -- Moni3 ( talk) 00:34, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
<--To Moni, I need to rephrase something. When I said "other than disparagment", I did not mean Wikipedia disparaging a BLP by adding a tag. I meant the BLP's political opponents attempting to disparage him in the eyes of his (presumably conservative) support base/voters. I wholeheartedly agree that such an "accusation" should not be "disparaging", but it is, unfortunately, disparaging to a large percentage of the American population. Because its a BLP, and only because it's a BLP, should we be extra careful and "do no harm". I'll go look at the article and sources, and I'm going to crosspost this on your talk to be sure you see it. My apologies if anything I'm typing is being misread, I sincerely am not trying to sound offensive, but my keyboard is having difficulty expressing my tone and finding the right way to say what I'm trying to say.

As per your comments in closing the AFD on this, I have expanded the article with references. It's fair enough expecting the article to be expanded beyond one sentence, but it would be nice to see the serial deletionists occasionally encouraged to make a more constructive contribution to the project, rather than editors such as myself who go through AFD's and spend a few minutes trying to determine notability before commenting on them. Cheers.-- Michig ( talk) 09:25, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
So, I've been working a lot on this Henry Conway article of late, and it's approved for DYK and should probably make its way to the front page in the not too distant future. I'm having some issues with the Parliamentary payments scandal section, and I've just reached the point where I've read so much about it and rewritten it so much that I can't even tell if it makes sense any more. Is there any chance Keeper or a TPS would be willing to read that section over and let me know what it looks like from the perspective of a new reader? Just basic things: does it flow logically? Does it explain what happened? Is there anything unclear or that you feel needs more information? Comments and edits on the rest of the article would obviously be welcome as well, but it's only the payments section that I'm truly freaking out over. Vickser ( talk) 12:30, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

More than once, I've posted on someone else's talkpage, begging to "keep the conversation here because my talkpage is crazy", only to find the TPS-ers show up there too. Love it.

If you look at my contribs the last while, you'll see that I have done several expansions of mini-articles, including Stalking horse offer, and a couple of others. There's really no need to get chippy in the edit summaries when a PROD is removed. It wasn't an attack on either the article or the creator of it. It allows five days for the person to establish notability and contest the PROD. I'm not sure why you got so short in your summary, when PROD-ing a short new article is much better than CSD-ing it. See American Assembly (I can't, because it was deleted so quickly) for what I'm talking about. I was researching it, to see what I could do for it, went back, and -- poof! -- it was gone.

When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!
It was a joke. I didn't write it, I just copied it from here. Naively, I thought that everyone would recognise it as something that's been in circulation for as long as I can remember. Apparently I was wrong. -- Malleus Fatuorum ( talk) 22:35, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Having an extremely deficient education, I find Wikipedia to be very helpful in filling my considerable voids of knowledge. I started today on Wikipedia by learning about a courageous Polish mother superior named Anna Borkowska, who saved a number of Jews during World War II. Enriched by learning this, I commended the article’s author on his work. To my surprise, I later saw the article was redlinked. Alas, there was a bit of copyright vio in that fine piece. I also witnessed a hostile volley between the angry author (who didn’t like to see his work deleted) and an equally unhappy admin (who salted the article to prevent a reprise). The duo went to DRV with their fight. So how does one solve the problem? Well, getting a new article written on the mother superior is not difficult, so I started researching the mother superior’s life. But then, damn it, I learned something new again: I discovered there was actually another Anna Borkowska, an actress who appeared in a famous Iranian movie called "The White Balloon." Thus, we began the day with one Anna Borkowska, then we wound up midstream with zero, and now we have three: Anna Borkowska (Sister Bertranda), Anna Borkowska (actress) and a dab page for Anna Borkowska. If you know of any other Anna Borkowskas out there, feel free to write about them yourself – I am all Anna’ed out. Ecoleetage ( talk) 19:21, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Just wanted to thank you for this. I never saw it until just now, but I do appreciate your coming to my defense, even if it didn't actually change the outcome in the end. Hopefully by now I've proven to be enough of an article-writer that if I ever do go for RfA again, that won't be a concern. did you watch the game yet? Enigma message 05:47, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Howdy Keeper! Am currently on holiday in Barcelona. (Previously "busy" (was too lazy to look for the proper holiday template).) The weather is great, the admission fees are ridiculous (almost nothing under 10 Euros), the tits and legs are great (frantically collecting visual memories for lonely nights to come). OTOH, this representative image of
Torre Agbar should sufficiently prove the absolute baselessness of all stereotypes about
Mediterranean people and
phallocentricity.

Hi Keeper. I added about 100 Costa Rican politician stubs the other night in Category:Costa Rican politicians. I took for granted the stub category didn't exist and just added CostRica-bio-stub but it does. Could you use AWB to quickly stub sort the stub categories of the articles. I aim to get some of them expanded in the coming weeks by translation ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:53, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
Yeah... *through gritted teeth* thanks Keeper. - No. I shall stop being angry now. I guess I've always had a bad temper on here and it really has collided with some people. I've decided to stop giving into the addiction :-) - I don't think I'm a bad person. I know how to be nice and polite. I guess I just lose control when I see things that I believe are wrong. That happens with everyone. Irpen, in the past, I've found some of your comments to be enraging to the point of wanting to burn my whole flat down. But oh well :-) I am passed that as of now. I have nothing against you personally. You're a human being. I'm genetically programmed to love you in some sort of fashion. Maybe not physically just yet... We'll talk about that another time (if you're into that sort of thing... I'm game if you are?). Anyway, I'd just like to say I'm sorry for losing my temper with you. I promise I won't engage in any future discussions on Wikipedia that will lead to me swearing or losing my temper. This includes ignoring Kurt Maxwell Weber, any cabals, Daniel Brandt, and the poo (that's not a swear word) stain that is Wiki Review. I promise I won't make fun of, belittle, insult or upset anyone (intentionally) ever again on Wikipedia or Wikipedia Review or on the Internet in general. I wholeheartedly and unreservedly apologise to anyone whom I have upset over the past 17 months and I will endeavour to patch things up with them again.

Full Disclosure, for those of you who haven't read it, that I'm the editor who prompted the issue by responding to the nominator who (AGF notwithstanding) I believe to be making efforts to delete, vs. improve, articles about a specific religious group. Not seeking allies here, as I'm abiding by SDJ's judgement and am completely avoiding the AfD and the article in question, but I do have a question: Is it normal within Wikipedia etiquette to both nominate an article for deletion, and then actively take issue with edits made by other editors interested in keeping the article? ~95% of the AfD's I see don't seem to have this conduct by AfD nominators, yet I don't see anyplace that it's discussed or discouraged. It seems tenditious and BITE-y to me, but I don't really see any place where it's addressed. I believe it has, or is designed to have, the effect of prompting AfD !voters to assume an excessively negative view of the articles value, while concealing the amount of effort going into improving it. Without going into this specific AfD, what sort of separation is expected, if any, between the roles of AfD nominator, deletion advocate, and critical editor?

Hi I wonder if this edit by an IP is enough after him receiving many warnings not to vandalise wikipedia for a block. He has received his last warning. He doesn't appear to edit too frequently but every edit he has made so far has been vandalsim, but it is clear he will never have a purpose to contructively edit wikipedia.

Exactly. But all the same he still has vandalised wikipedia at least 12 times and received 12 warnings and is clearly not here for constructive purposes. Its not as if he only did it once as a newcomer. I have to agree with Evula personally I don't think it should matter whether the edits are weeks apart or minutes apart but "by the book" he would need to make blatant vandalism to articles in a short period of time I know this. If I was an admin I would be fully aware that I would need to be cautious with every use of the tools I make and am quite capable of making a decision based on "official criteria" but if being an admin entails being permanently patient with such IP's or excessively putting up with repeated bad edits just to keep wikipedia completely open then I'd rather try to focus entirely on mainspace building which I feel is what I do best. ♦ Dr. Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 21:25, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
I know thats how I feel but according to policy on blocking he hasn't performed enough recent blatant bad edits to constitute this. Hey Keeper thanks for copying the list.

...but I'm still disturbed by it so I'm bringing it to AN/K. There's this user JohnLeoWalsh. His user page is just the weirdest frickin' thing. It's not horrible or anything, but I don't think it's got any WP value at all..and his whole edit history--as well as the edit history of his logged-out IP 74.32.51.238--consists of one of two things: either a)edits to this weird-ass user page, or b)addition of deliberate and subtle errors to articles about TV shows/networks. I found a single legit edit, under another IP 74.32.6.70--the Jay Jay the Jet Plane edits. But that's it, and most of the rest of what he spends his time on here is this "God's People/Pets" thing. He doesn't seem to answer questions on his talkpage, either.

Hi there is an IP address probably from India which is wreaking havoc with some of the Bollywood articles. See his contributions. He persistently keeps adding POV to an article or glorifying an actor or film further than they or it actually is. It is a major nuisance for the editors on here who work on Indian cinema articles to have to keep reverting him day in day out just to maintain some sense of article neutrality. Could you please warn him and try to make him aware of wikipedias neutrality and why his edits which are intent on putting POV or glorifying the subject of the article unnecesarily may be construed as agains tpolicy and therfore vandalism. Its doing my nut it keeoing track of him. User:Shshshsh (Shahid) raise my awarenss of it initially and other editors such as totalfilmi99 have to keep reverting him e.g here. Should he be blocked do you think? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 09:11, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi there, a while back, you did excellent work in carrying out some informal mediation on Talk:Wales about how to name the various bits of the United Kingdon. Part of your solution relied on a table of reliable sources that had been constructed on my initiative and placed in Subdivisions of the United Kingdom. Since then, there has been numerous changes made to the table and its place, so that now its present version lies in Countries of the United Kingdom. There is now a suggestion that it be removed entirely! Since your solution to the Wales problem relied on the presence of the table, I wonder if you could consider the issue of removal of the table? You can see the discussion on Talk:Countries of the United Kingdom#Poll on merge. Thanks. DDStretch (talk) 14:04, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Oh actually there was something else. See Category:Cities, towns and villages in Thailand. There are many articles which are unnecessily ending in (town) or city. COuld you move them back to the plain names without the ending. The provincial name ends in Province anyway so naming something ... town is incorrect. E.g Chanthaburi town should be moved back to Chanthaburi which is in Chanthaburi Province, Could you help? Evidence of this is buri or puri Chanthaburi means town so that article at present is town town. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 17:51, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Yes thats perfect thanks. I don't know who moved them but the suffix was unnecessary. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 18:02, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Many thanks. Yes I have no idea why he thought it was necessary. Hat notes can disinguish the difference anyway. I've somehow managed to notch up around 1000 edits adding templates I created and categories to all the municipalities in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama are next. When I've finished and done Mexico we should have every municipalitiy in central america undercontrol and order and in the position to expand some of these stubs which have been lying around since 2004. I;m leanring spanish so it is also a learning process. Yesterday I started University of El Salvador and expanded Apastepeque by translating from spanish wikipedia! Central America is a grey area of wikipedia and there are some facinating places with rich histories and cultures ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 18:57, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
If you or Fritz or anybody wants to lend to Bald One a hand if you see Wikipedia:WikiProject Nicaragua/Department templates I need to fill out the templates with the municipalities. Basically it is a cut and paste job from the respective department article and paste it into the template e.g like Template:Managua Department. I;m nearing the end of Honduras in terms of adding templates but Nicarague will be next. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000?> 19:42, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Thats great if you could lend a hand. Check my editing history over last two days its a monster!! I;ve just finished adding the templates to Honduras. If the Nicaraguan ones are waiting, after setting up the municipal categories by department it should be ready to plough through tomorrow. COsta Rica is going to be a biggy as we need templates not only for the provinces but for the individual cantons and is it quite developed on here. There are for example 10-16 cantons in a province on average, then each canton often has 20 districts/municipalities!! Soon enough all the central american places will have finoboxes and basic referenced data soon enough. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:11, 28 July 2008 (UTC) Perfecto amigo gracias. Eventually the tenplates will probably be fleshed out with articles on other topics related to them such as landmarks/history.people etc.But municipalities is all at present. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:21, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Keeper. I'm hoping the admins that hobnob on your page an are learned in the ways of WP:BLP are able to give input to a situation. From this discussion on the talk page for Charlie Crist spawned a disagreement over the placement of WikiProject LGBT studies' template on the article's talk page. Though Crist has been rumored to be gay (something I think is a political ploy), the template has been removed due to BLP concerns. Does merely the placement of a wikiproject template on a talk page have any bearing on information in the article? I posed the question at Talk:BLP, and I'm surprised it has gone unanswered. -- Moni3 ( talk) 00:34, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
<--To Moni, I need to rephrase something. When I said "other than disparagment", I did not mean Wikipedia disparaging a BLP by adding a tag. I meant the BLP's political opponents attempting to disparage him in the eyes of his (presumably conservative) support base/voters. I wholeheartedly agree that such an "accusation" should not be "disparaging", but it is, unfortunately, disparaging to a large percentage of the American population. Because its a BLP, and only because it's a BLP, should we be extra careful and "do no harm". I'll go look at the article and sources, and I'm going to crosspost this on your talk to be sure you see it. My apologies if anything I'm typing is being misread, I sincerely am not trying to sound offensive, but my keyboard is having difficulty expressing my tone and finding the right way to say what I'm trying to say.

As per your comments in closing the AFD on this, I have expanded the article with references. It's fair enough expecting the article to be expanded beyond one sentence, but it would be nice to see the serial deletionists occasionally encouraged to make a more constructive contribution to the project, rather than editors such as myself who go through AFD's and spend a few minutes trying to determine notability before commenting on them.

So, I've been working a lot on this Henry Conway article of late, and it's approved for DYK and should probably make its way to the front page in the not too distant future. I'm having some issues with the Parliamentary payments scandal section, and I've just reached the point where I've read so much about it and rewritten it so much that I can't even tell if it makes sense any more. Is there any chance Keeper or a TPS would be willing to read that section over and let me know what it looks like from the perspective of a new reader? Just basic things: does it flow logically? Does it explain what happened? Is there anything unclear or that you feel needs more information? Comments and edits on the rest of the article would obviously be welcome as well, but it's only the payments section that I'm truly freaking out over. Vickser ( talk) 12:30, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

It ain't deleted, it's gonna get merged. It ain't your job to merge (some closers do it, I find it rather silly to presume that I would know enough about a subject to merge two articles -- if I knew that much about the subject I wouldn't be closing the AFD in the first place, I'd be votin' keep/delete.) You explained yourself to him well, don't worry about it, and don't do what I just did, which means don't get yerself listed over at wqa. Let him bitch about it for a while, your close was just fine.

If you look at my contribs the last while, you'll see that I have done several expansions of mini-articles, including Stalking horse offer, and a couple of others. There's really no need to get chippy in the edit summaries when a PROD is removed. It wasn't an attack on either the article or the creator of it. It allows five days for the person to establish notability and contest the PROD. I'm not sure why you got so short in your summary, when PROD-ing a short new article is much better than CSD-ing it. See American Assembly (I can't, because it was deleted so quickly) for what I'm talking about. I was researching it, to see what I could do for it, went back, and -- poof! -- it was gone. There are some problem editors at NPP now, Keep, but I don't feel like I'm one of them. S. Dean Jameson 17:00, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!

Having an extremely deficient education, I find Wikipedia to be very helpful in filling my considerable voids of knowledge. I started today on Wikipedia by learning about a courageous Polish mother superior named Anna Borkowska, who saved a number of Jews during World War II. Enriched by learning this, I commended the article’s author on his work. To my surprise, I later saw the article was redlinked. Alas, there was a bit of copyright vio in that fine piece. I also witnessed a hostile volley between the angry author (who didn’t like to see his work deleted) and an equally unhappy admin (who salted the article to prevent a reprise). The duo went to DRV with their fight. So how does one solve the problem? Well, getting a new article written on the mother superior is not difficult, so I started researching the mother superior’s life. But then, damn it, I learned something new again: I discovered there was actually another Anna Borkowska, an actress who appeared in a famous Iranian movie called "The White Balloon." Thus, we began the day with one Anna Borkowska, then we wound up midstream with zero, and now we have three: Anna Borkowska (Sister Bertranda), Anna Borkowska (actress) and a dab page for Anna Borkowska. If you know of any other Anna Borkowskas out there, feel free to write about them yourself – I am all Anna’ed out. Ecoleetage ( talk) 19:21, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Just wanted to thank you for this. I never saw it until just now, but I do appreciate your coming to my defense, even if it didn't actually change the outcome in the end.

I promise I won't engage in any future discussions on Wikipedia that will lead to me swearing or losing my temper. This includes ignoring Kurt Maxwell Weber, any cabals, Daniel Brandt, and the poo (that's not a swear word) stain that is Wiki Review. I promise I won't make fun of, belittle, insult or upset anyone (intentionally) ever again on Wikipedia or Wikipedia Review or on the Internet in general.

Full Disclosure, for those of you who haven't read it, that I'm the editor who prompted the issue by responding to the nominator who (AGF notwithstanding) I believe to be making efforts to delete, vs. improve, articles about a specific religious group. Not seeking allies here, as I'm abiding by SDJ's judgement and am completely avoiding the AfD and the article in question, but I do have a question: Is it normal within Wikipedia etiquette to both nominate an article for deletion, and then actively take issue with edits made by other editors interested in keeping the article? ~95% of the AfD's I see don't seem to have this conduct by AfD nominators, yet I don't see anyplace that it's discussed or discouraged. It seems tenditious and BITE-y to me, but I don't really see any place where it's addressed. I believe it has, or is designed to have, the effect of prompting AfD !voters to assume an excessively negative view of the articles value, while concealing the amount of effort going into improving it. Without going into this specific AfD, what sort of separation is expected, if any, between the roles of AfD nominator, deletion advocate, and critical editor?

Hi I wonder if this edit by an IP is enough after him receiving many warnings not to vandalise wikipedia for a block. He has received his last warning.

Exactly. But all the same he still has vandalised wikipedia at least 12 times and received 12 warnings and is clearly not here for constructive purposes. Its not as if he only did it once as a newcomer. I have to agree with Evula personally I don't think it should matter whether the edits are weeks apart or minutes apart but "by the book" he would need to make blatant vandalism to articles in a short period of time I know this. If I was an admin I would be fully aware that I would need to be cautious with every use of the tools I make and am quite capable of making a decision based on "official criteria" but if being an admin entails being permanently patient with such IP's or excessively putting up with repeated bad edits just to keep wikipedia completely open then I'd rather try to focus entirely on mainspace building which I feel is what I do best. ♦ Dr. Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 21:25, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
I know thats how I feel but according to policy on blocking he hasn't performed enough recent blatant bad edits to constitute this. Hey Keeper thanks for copying the list. I now need to get it all bulleted and red linked. I'll probably do a bit every day, any gradual help you can give would be much appreciated ♦ Dr. Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 21:42, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
Ah dear dodgy PC huh? Thanks for your help. Yes tomorrow I think I'll try to make a start on getting those 1000 missing biographies stubbed.
