Dear Kudpung,
you have recently suggested that the article "Abels Decker Kuhfuss & Partner" about a law firm I have been trying to upload, to be deleted. I have changed the article every time to cohere with the suggestions by the wikipedia editors.
I have one question, what is the difference between the article I am trying to upload and this article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linklaters has over 16 sources among which many appear to be reliable (and there are many more similar ones)
Am I missing something in my article or am I not understanding something?
Your advice would be appreciated.

Hi Kudpung! I was looking over your RFA criteria and based on all of your work on adminship, such as WP:RFAADVICE, I strongly suggest that you have an RFB soon. You are known on here as one of the most experienced admins in the area of RFAs. I think that the project would only gain from you becoming a bureaucrat. Your thoughts?

Hi,
I edited the NYU-Poly page yesterday and I see that you reverted it back. I read the talk page and I see people complaining about advertisement like language.

I put the word "distinguished" because it existed in the page for many years before someone messed up the page. Besides Poly does have distinguished history in polymer chemistry(In 1946, Herman Mark established the Polymer Research Institute at Brooklyn Polytechnic, the first research facility in the United States dedicated to polymer research. Mark is also recognized as a pioneer in establishing curriculum and pedagogy for the field of polymer science.[6] In 1950, the POLY division of the American Chemical Society was formed, and has since grown to the second-largest division in this association with nearly 8,000 members. The American Chemical Society designated the Polymer Research Institute as a National Historic Chemical Landmark on September 3, 2003). In electrical engineering, Rober G. Brown (class of 1868) designed and developed the first telephone system in Paris, France. Among his other innovations were the "French Telephone," with its separate hand piece (carrying the speaker and microphone) which rested in a cradle, and the hiring of women to work as telephone operators.
Weber Research Institute was internationally regarded as one of the foremost centers of research on microwave field theory in the world. According to a 1968 inquiry by the journal MicroWaves, microwave engineers named by a wide margin the Polytechnic Institute as the school from which they had received their training. Poly had been the site for earlier work in 1840 by Samuel F. B. Morse and Alfred Vail on a recording telegraph. Gordon Gould invented laser, Mark Cuadillo invented RFID, Dibner inventor first solderless electrical connector etc. Many IEEE presidents including the current president elect is a Poly alumnus. Poly produced two Nasa astronauts- Charles Camarda(NASA scientist and mission specialist on the Return to Flight voyage of the shuttle Discovery) and Paolo A. Nespoli(Italian astronaut, mission specialist at STS-120 Space Shuttle mission.) and one Chief Engineer of NASA Johnson Space Center-Jay Greene. Stevens Institute of Technology- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevens_Institute_of_Technology under their research section put Stevens partnered with Parsons The New School for Design and Milano School of International Affairs, Management and Urban Policy to design an affordable green home as part of the 2011 Solar Decathlon.[47] The team partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Washington, DC to provide the home to a low-income family in the Deanwood section of Washington at the conclusion of the competition.[47] The U.S. Department of Energy selected Stevens as one of 20 teams to compete in the 2013 Solar Decathlon to be held at Orange County Great Park in Irvine, California, the first time the competition has been held outside of Washington, D.C.[48] that is why I included Sae aero competition and shell eco competition in NYU-Poly's page Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute included in their alumni section all companies founded by their alumni http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rensselaer_Polytechnic_Institute#Notable_alumni In addition to NVIDIA, RPI graduates have also gone on to found or co-found major companies such as John Wiley and Sons, Texas Instruments, Fairchild Semiconductor, PSINet, MapInfo, Adelphia Communications, Level 3 Communications, Garmin, and Bugle Boy. Several RPI graduates have played a part in the U.S. space program: George Low (B.Eng. 1948, M.S. 1950) was manager of the Apollo 11 project and served as president of RPI, and astronauts John L. Swigert Jr., Richard Mastracchio, Gregory R. Wiseman, and space tourist Dennis Tito are alumni. ALSO INVENTIONS Many RPI graduates have made important inventions, including Allen B. DuMont ('24),[130] creator of the first commercial television; Keith D. Millis ('38),[131] inventor of ductile iron; Ted Hoff ('58),[132] father of the microprocessor; Raymond Tomlinson ('63),[133] often credited with the invention of e-mail; inventor of the digital camera Steven Sasson[134] and Curtis Priem ('82), designer of the first video graphics processor and co-founder of NVIDIA. |

I see you've declined Wiki607045's request to be confirmed because he doesn't need it to edit the encyclopaedia; from reading his rationale, it seems that he wants to edit Deaths in 2012 which, as a semi-protected page, does of course require a user to be confirmed :).

Hi Kudpung. I was looking at your message on my page, regarding the guidance for RFA being a year old... Not sure what you were wondering though... Sorry I keep catching the good candidates, I guess I've just got lucky a few times. I nearly nominated Mlpearc, based on the editor review, but SoWhy had beaten me by 24 hours. Worth looking through the ER category, with this summer of love thing going on, good candidates who may have said no before appear to be willing to say yes. In fact, I might go back and re-ask those who said no before - might be worth you doing the same!
Also, on a totally separate note, I noticed
this. Now I'm not disagreeing that the user is a
problem but I just wanted to remind you what
Wp:CIR is for... It's advice for the people who have to deal with the issue, not for the cause of the issue. Just as we shouldn't link NOTNOW to experienced users, or call dicks a
meta:dick, we shouldn't suggest to an editor that they need to gain more competence. It's an essay that really bugs me, I went on about it in one of my Arbcom questions. I've seen how demoralised people can get based on the essay and attitude of the people that use it which often amounts to "you don't get it, you never will, we will never want you here" - horribly unwelcoming to say the least.

Hey Kudpung,
I've reverted the Berkley Normal Middle School article as it seems from the editors comments above that they now understand why it's not appropriate (although I definitely won't revert it again as then it would be an edit war!). However I was having a look at List of schools in the Waikato Region and in my opinion it violates WP:PURPLIST due to the large number of red links - "any lists which exist primarily for development or maintenance purposes (such as a list that consists primarily of red links) should be in project or user space, not the main space." - so what do you think, should it just be left? or altered someway such as combining the school names into the town articles rather than having one for the entire region?

Thanks for uploading File:Parramatta logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:44, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I just saw your comments on someone's talk about your desire to improve NPP. I'd like to help give ideas to you, but first, what do you personally think is wrong with it? Ps, I think it needs improving as well ;)-- Chip 123456 20:13, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
As I have previously mentioned above or elsewhere, I also believe that an NPP right could be incorporated into reviewer. Over 5,000 reviewer rights were created 2 years ago indiscriminately by a database search based on a set of criteria. What such searches do not provide of course, is a measure of competency. I'm not sure if all those editors with the right are still around today, but perhaps during that time they have gained sufficient experience if they didn't have it then. The other snag is however, that to create a technical user right for NPP would involve some complex tweaking to the site software, and I'm not sure that the developers atthe WMF would entertain the request even if it were reached by consensus, or allocate funds and developer time to do it. The Foundation's director of development has spoken out against the creation of more user rights. I'm not sure either that creating a technical user right is the best solution. I would much prefer to see only experienced and trusted users patrolling new pages and AfC's without the need for a special right. We need to find ways to educate them. We can always topic ban them from patrolling if they persistently get it wrong in spite of help and warnings. It's been done before. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 07:25, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
So I took the plunge, as you can see. It went quite as I expected it to, only much nicer than I thought it would be. Despite your advice several months ago, I figured it was worth a shot. I have no regrets and am glad I had that experience. Thank you for your sentiments expressed there as well, I really appreciate it.
Oh, and I completely agree with your comment on my talk page about RfA having "cleaned itself up" in recent times. It's exactly what it should be — a constructive community process aimed at filling the admin ranks with experienced and capable Wikipedians. I still think the standards of today are too high (we can agree to disagree there), but nevertheless the participants sure did provide me some very helpful remarks. I'm quite pleased with how it all turned out.

I agree that rollback is not normally a good idea for unverifiable edits. However, when a user makes a contiguous sequence of 20 edits, all of which are neither referenced nor verifiable, and when compared to a primary source look distinctly wrong, I'm not sure what tool one would use besides some form of rollback. Individually undo-ing a sequence of 20 edits seems like a rather painful way to fix a page edited by an IP address... Pmbma ( talk) 01:05, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Kudpung- Concerning the temporary blockage of 74.88.160.244 in Thmc1's investigation, I was hoping it was permanent. Ditto for 96.242.217.91. Thmc was blocked, not for light or moderate sockpuppeting, but excessive sockpuppeting. Just him being able to edit is a violation of that policy. Furthermore, he was still making the same old disruptive edits. Quoting what he wrote during the first investigation, "I will sorely miss editing Wikipedia in the meantime" (See Thmc1 talk page). Unbeknownst to the SysAdmins, he had 96.242.217.91 at his disposal which he used to create the Nyc88 account the day before making that statement! If anything, all of the suspected IPs and the accounts affiliated with them should be permanently blocked. Ditto for any other Fair Lawn related accounts and IPs that you discover from this investigation. This individual will surely take advantage of any IPs left open, as already learned since the last investigation. Based on my own research, I'm definite that these IPs were also used by the same person, and no one else. MBaxter1 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:22, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

I just wanted to make sure that you're reading the same article that I am in your decline of CSDA7 for the article Irfan Bhatt. At the time of this writing, the main text of this article reads:
Irfan Bhatt is a Cinematographer from Kashmir India. He graduated in 'Mass communication and Multimedia' from University of Kashmir in 2010, and started his carrier as Documentary film maker. He further studied Cinematography from a film school in Mumbai.
I'm curious as to what part of A7 this does not meet regarding "An article about a real person, individual animal(s), organization or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, with the exception of educational institutions."

Hey, I was just curious as to why you deleted the "Band Program" section of the Copper Hills High School page. By the way, I just created this account, and until now I've been using Wikipedia through my IP address.

Jodapop ( talk) 02:09, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
PS: I'm a student at Copper Hills High School.
I am a prominent sometimes controversial right-of-centre blogger in the UK and have long accepted that as a consequence my Wikipedia entry will be a matter of obsession for left-wingers.
A read of the talk pages will show that for over 5 years I have bitterly complained about the content - without altering it.
I have now changed my policy and am determined to correct falsehoods and prevent it being used to only record negative information about me.
If you look at the talk pages you will see references to various profiles and broadcast documentaries from credible organisations which take a far more balanced view of me.
There is a concerted effort by left-wing bloggers to slant my entry, just Google around and you will find blogs and hundreds tweets about my trying to correct the record.
When the entry has in the past included outlandish claims about me it has eventually been corrected. Why should I have to put up with this ongoing onslaught and considerable delays in correcting the record?
For example I am frankly fed up of having to waste my time forinstance correcting false claims about my nationality repeatedly. Can you lock that down?
As for me threatening legal action, today two people repeatedly made false allegations that I had knocked down a woman. This claim has been made on left-wing blogs in the past. as a result I have gone to the trouble of collecting video evidence of the woman concerned stating otherwise. Now if Wikipedia edits repeatedly and falsely report the opposite what am I supposed to do?
The entry should be locked down in a neutral stable state.

Only admins can edit the article now, and any request to restore any content must have some convincing arguments and be backed up by reliable sources which the admins will check first. Remember that all claims in a biography must be 100% referenced to reliable, independent sources such as the quality press and TV (what's been said about you or shown on TV can be cited), and if it's wrong, you must take it up with them and not with Wikipedia. Anything which is not accurately sourced must be deleted whether it is from you or the other editors of the article. You really only have two option: Either discuss the issues calmly on the article talk page and reach a compromise with the other editors, or take the official route. Please continue the discussion on the article talk page now.

Kudpung,
I saw that you turned me down for rollback. I understand rollback is a privellege and not a right, so no, I'm not going to stomp around on your page and demand it. I checked the links you used as reasoning, The first one was my block lock. The last one I had was more than a year ago (the most recent two were actualyl in error, noted so by the sysop, who put it on then took it off ) The second link was to a a message left on my page by Tarc. I'd removed uncvil stuff on his page per the policy WP:Removeuncivil. Don't worry, I'm not going to lawyer about it, I get that the block log looks bad. I also get that as there's no hard and fast criteria for what a user has to have in order to expect rollback to be granted, that it's left up to the interpretation of the granter. Again, no problem.
I will point at that per WP:ROLLBACK I do have a history that shows an ability to distinguish good edits from vandalism and even test edits from vandalism, so I disagree with your assesment that I don't understand the rules and am curious as to which rules you think I didn't understand. Your second diff, in fact, shows that I undestand removeuncvil and was acting on it. I look forward to hearing back from you. "....We are all Kosh...." <-Babylon-5-> 13:05, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
@Kosh: BTW, if you ,are going to get involved with maintenance tasks that will bring you in contact with a lot of people who are not regulars here, you may wish to get a signature that demonstrates the maturity of the job you wish to do, provides the expected links, and more accurately reflects your user name. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk)
So far, you've given me two links, one to a block log ( a year old ) and an exchange where WP:Removeuncivil was used. I've commented on both, so no need to bring it back up again. My edit summaries are terse to be sure, however, be aware, they used to be longer but I was told that was improper, even though the exact reason of the revert was specific, so I began using terse summaries, and yes, sometimes I put a goofy summary in. Oddly enough, I got a few complaints that me edit summaries are now too short. Bottom line, a complaint's gonna happen either way, so I choose to keep them terse and to the point. None of this shows a mis-understanding of the rules. You brought up my signature, it's below the max length and contains no images, no links to "sign my guestbook", it contains my name and a link to my talk page, as required (and yes, "Kosh" is short for KoshVorlon). So far, nothing you've said shows that I don't understand the rules here.
Intersting that you mentioned Fluffernutter, yes, she put a note on my page about Tarc's edit notice. Notice that she doesn't disagree with my judgement on that edit notice ? Her request was that I start a discussion on it, that's it.
Also, how realistic is to ask a vandal fighter to generate no complaints ? It isn't , if you think about it. A vandal fighter's gonna get complaints, it's all part of removing vandalism. See you around. "....We are all Kosh...." <-Babylon-5-> 16:17, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for deleting Rk šibenik. I knew it was eastern European, but that's as far as I got. I've been playing with the NewPagesFeed, and getting into New Page Patrol on an occasional basis. The new tool makes it much easier for me to face into the firehose stream of information on Recent Changes. I've been watching what a lot of others do, but may need to ask some questions from time to time. In most cases the course of action seems clear, but in others not so. So far I've been following the guides on New Page Patrol, adding cats and stubsort tags, providing project banners on redlinked talk pages, tagging as speedy in the rare cases I see such needed. (As an aside, I've adopted BrokenRedirects as a place where I can get experience with CSD tagging.) Is there a simple criteria for marking as patrolled? How much time does the average patroller give to an individual article? I'll watch here for response. BusterD ( talk) 16:01, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi Kudpung! I think that it would be best if I stopped clerking at PERM for the time being. There is no urgency for user rights, but there is an urgency for NPP, which is often backlogged. I see that other admins, such as yourself have gotten involved at PERM. Also, many inexperienced new users have gotten involved. Just as we don't need RFA clerks, we don't need PERM clerks, too. Getting minor rights is not urgent, and the admins who worked there didn't work there before their RFA. Beforehand, GB fan and BMW were the only admins who worked at confirmed. Anyways, I'd still like to have you teach me in the NPP course how to determine if a user is ready for user rights or not. It's a skill that cannot be taught by just reading policies. Anyways, thanks for all of your help. I'm going back to Special: Newpages. Best, Electric Catfish 15:00, 26 August 2012 (UTC).
Hi, Kudpung. I was just wondering why you tagged the above article? Everything is sourced (one from her own website, one from Entertainment Weekly, and one from The Huffington Post). Also, she definitely meets the GNG; she is a senior writer for EW and has her own book. In addition, her work has been included in many other magazines/websites.

I've had a look at the two bios ( Marion Mack and Donald E. Wilkes Jr.) that are tagged with needing more reliable sources and I've added to both. I have to say I surprised that Wilkes was tagged for this - a university faculty biography is a lot more reliable than many publisher's blurb. That said I've taken out the bit about the number of articles published as a) it used the same reference but you can see a full list and b) does sound hagiographic. Instead there is mention of his being the first to apply the concept of New Federalism to the US Criminal Justice system. He wrote three essays on the topic in the 1970s the first of which is cited almost 350 times in other works google scholar result, wasn't sure whether or even how to cite this though.

I am writing to report that 173.63.176.93 is still block evading w/out logging in and editing since you freed up that IP, an action which I disagree with. Same old anti-UK edits, as well as to the same articles he's edited before. Unless you've forgotten, Thmc1 isn't a stale, active account, but a BLOCKED sockmaster since June of 2010. So, what action are you planning next? Hopefully, another investigation won't be necessary.

In your comment about edit summaries on my rollback request section, you mentioned that I should try not to express my thoughts as much in my edit summaries. I realize that I do tend to have a habit of doing that, but I couldn't find that anywhere at the Wikipedia guidelines. Is it because rollbackers are held to a higher standard than others? If you could please elaborate and/or tell me where I can find more information about that, if possible. Thanks.

It's not a 'standard' for rollbackers, everyone should understand the use of edit summaries. Read WP:ES.

I put the word "distinguished" because it existed in the page for many years before someone messed up the page. Besides Poly does have distinguished history in polymer chemistry(In 1946, Herman Mark established the Polymer Research Institute at Brooklyn Polytechnic, the first research facility in the United States dedicated to polymer research. Mark is also recognized as a pioneer in establishing curriculum and pedagogy for the field of polymer science.[6] In 1950, the POLY division of the American Chemical Society was formed, and has since grown to the second-largest division in this association with nearly 8,000 members. The American Chemical Society designated the Polymer Research Institute as a National Historic Chemical Landmark on September 3, 2003). In electrical engineering, Rober G. Brown (class of 1868) designed and developed the first telephone system in Paris, France. Among his other innovations were the "French Telephone," with its separate hand piece (carrying the speaker and microphone) which rested in a cradle, and the hiring of women to work as telephone operators.
Weber Research Institute was internationally regarded as one of the foremost centers of research on microwave field theory in the world. According to a 1968 inquiry by the journal MicroWaves, microwave engineers named by a wide margin the Polytechnic Institute as the school from which they had received their training. Poly had been the site for earlier work in 1840 by Samuel F. B. Morse and Alfred Vail on a recording telegraph. Gordon Gould invented laser, Mark Cuadillo invented RFID, Dibner inventor first solderless electrical connector etc. Many IEEE presidents including the current president elect is a Poly alumnus. Poly produced two Nasa astronauts- Charles Camarda(NASA scientist and mission specialist on the Return to Flight voyage of the shuttle Discovery) and Paolo A. Nespoli(Italian astronaut, mission specialist at STS-120 Space Shuttle mission.) and one Chief Engineer of NASA Johnson Space Center-Jay Greene. Stevens Institute of Technology- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevens_Institute_of_Technology under their research section put Stevens partnered with Parsons The New School for Design and Milano School of International Affairs, Management and Urban Policy to design an affordable green home as part of the 2011 Solar Decathlon.[47] The team partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Washington, DC to provide the home to a low-income family in the Deanwood section of Washington at the conclusion of the competition.[47] The U.S. Department of Energy selected Stevens as one of 20 teams to compete in the 2013 Solar Decathlon to be held at Orange County Great Park in Irvine, California, the first time the competition has been held outside of Washington, D.C.[48] that is why I included Sae aero competition and shell eco competition in NYU-Poly's page Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute included in their alumni section all companies founded by their alumni http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rensselaer_Polytechnic_Institute#Notable_alumni In addition to NVIDIA, RPI graduates have also gone on to found or co-found major companies such as John Wiley and Sons, Texas Instruments, Fairchild Semiconductor, PSINet, MapInfo, Adelphia Communications, Level 3 Communications, Garmin, and Bugle Boy. Several RPI graduates have played a part in the U.S. space program: George Low (B.Eng. 1948, M.S. 1950) was manager of the Apollo 11 project and served as president of RPI, and astronauts John L. Swigert Jr., Richard Mastracchio, Gregory R. Wiseman, and space tourist Dennis Tito are alumni. ALSO INVENTIONS Many RPI graduates have made important inventions, including Allen B. DuMont ('24),[130] creator of the first commercial television; Keith D. Millis ('38),[131] inventor of ductile iron; Ted Hoff ('58),[132] father of the microprocessor; Raymond Tomlinson ('63),[133] often credited with the invention of e-mail; inventor of the digital camera Steven Sasson[134] and Curtis Priem ('82), designer of the first video graphics processor and co-founder of NVIDIA. |

Hi Kudpung. I was looking at your message on my page, regarding the guidance for RFA being a year old... Not sure what you were wondering though... Sorry I keep catching the good candidates, I guess I've just got lucky a few times. I nearly nominated Mlpearc, based on the editor review, but SoWhy had beaten me by 24 hours. Worth looking through the ER category, with this summer of love thing going on, good candidates who may have said no before appear to be willing to say yes. In fact, I might go back and re-ask those who said no before - might be worth you doing the same!
Also, on a totally separate note, I noticed
this. Now I'm not disagreeing that the user is a
problem but I just wanted to remind you what
Wp:CIR is for... It's advice for the people who have to deal with the issue, not for the cause of the issue. Just as we shouldn't link NOTNOW to experienced users, or call dicks a
meta:dick, we shouldn't suggest to an editor that they need to gain more competence. It's an essay that really bugs me, I went on about it in one of my Arbcom questions. I've seen how demoralised people can get based on the essay and attitude of the people that use it which often amounts to "you don't get it, you never will, we will never want you here" - horribly unwelcoming to say the least.

Hey Kudpung,
I've reverted the Berkley Normal Middle School article as it seems from the editors comments above that they now understand why it's not appropriate (although I definitely won't revert it again as then it would be an edit war!). However I was having a look at List of schools in the Waikato Region and in my opinion it violates WP:PURPLIST due to the large number of red links - "any lists which exist primarily for development or maintenance purposes (such as a list that consists primarily of red links) should be in project or user space, not the main space." - so what do you think, should it just be left? or altered someway such as combining the school names into the town articles rather than having one for the entire region?

Regarding Arbcom, while I have reservations about several decisions they've made this year, I generally agree with you about the quality of the sitting members.

Thanks for uploading File:Parramatta logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:44, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I just saw your comments on someone's talk about your desire to improve NPP. I'd like to help give ideas to you, but first, what do you personally think is wrong with it? Ps, I think it needs improving as well ;)-- Chip 123456 20:13, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
As I have previously mentioned above or elsewhere, I also believe that an NPP right could be incorporated into reviewer. Over 5,000 reviewer rights were created 2 years ago indiscriminately by a database search based on a set of criteria. What such searches do not provide of course, is a measure of competency. I'm not sure if all those editors with the right are still around today, but perhaps during that time they have gained sufficient experience if they didn't have it then. The other snag is however, that to create a technical user right for NPP would involve some complex tweaking to the site software, and I'm not sure that the developers atthe WMF would entertain the request even if it were reached by consensus, or allocate funds and developer time to do it. The Foundation's director of development has spoken out against the creation of more user rights. I'm not sure either that creating a technical user right is the best solution. I would much prefer to see only experienced and trusted users patrolling new pages and AfC's without the need for a special right. We need to find ways to educate them. We can always topic ban them from patrolling if they persistently get it wrong in spite of help and warnings. It's been done before. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 07:25, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
So I took the plunge, as you can see. It went quite as I expected it to, only much nicer than I thought it would be. Despite your advice several months ago, I figured it was worth a shot. I have no regrets and am glad I had that experience. Thank you for your sentiments expressed there as well, I really appreciate it.
Oh, and I completely agree with your comment on my talk page about RfA having "cleaned itself up" in recent times. It's exactly what it should be — a constructive community process aimed at filling the admin ranks with experienced and capable Wikipedians. I still think the standards of today are too high (we can agree to disagree there), but nevertheless the participants sure did provide me some very helpful remarks. I'm quite pleased with how it all turned out.
Take care. =) Master&Expert ( Talk) 23:09, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
I agree that rollback is not normally a good idea for unverifiable edits. However, when a user makes a contiguous sequence of 20 edits, all of which are neither referenced nor verifiable, and when compared to a primary source look distinctly wrong, I'm not sure what tool one would use besides some form of rollback. Individually undo-ing a sequence of 20 edits seems like a rather painful way to fix a page edited by an IP address... Pmbma ( talk) 01:05, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Kudpung- Concerning the temporary blockage of 74.88.160.244 in Thmc1's investigation, I was hoping it was permanent. Ditto for 96.242.217.91. Thmc was blocked, not for light or moderate sockpuppeting, but excessive sockpuppeting. Just him being able to edit is a violation of that policy. Furthermore, he was still making the same old disruptive edits. Quoting what he wrote during the first investigation, "I will sorely miss editing Wikipedia in the meantime" (See Thmc1 talk page). Unbeknownst to the SysAdmins, he had 96.242.217.91 at his disposal which he used to create the Nyc88 account the day before making that statement! If anything, all of the suspected IPs and the accounts affiliated with them should be permanently blocked. Ditto for any other Fair Lawn related accounts and IPs that you discover from this investigation. This individual will surely take advantage of any IPs left open, as already learned since the last investigation. Based on my own research, I'm definite that these IPs were also used by the same person, and no one else. MBaxter1 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:22, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

I just wanted to make sure that you're reading the same article that I am in your decline of CSDA7 for the article Irfan Bhatt. At the time of this writing, the main text of this article reads:
Irfan Bhatt is a Cinematographer from Kashmir India. He graduated in 'Mass communication and Multimedia' from University of Kashmir in 2010, and started his carrier as Documentary film maker. He further studied Cinematography from a film school in Mumbai.
I'm curious as to what part of A7 this does not meet regarding "An article about a real person, individual animal(s), organization or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, with the exception of educational institutions." This article has no mention of "...makes any credible claim of significance or importance even if the claim is not supported by a reliable source or does not qualify on Wikipedia's notability guidelines."

Having you internet traffic secured so the country you are in can't spy on you. You are behind a country's firewall (ie China). You want use services only available in a certain country (watching Hulu or Netflix from Europe or watch BBC from America). VyprVPN, WiTopia, StrongVPN and Ipredator are the common ones.

By the way, I just created this account, and until now I've been using Wikipedia through my IP address. I'd like to follow the rules, so if you could explain in detail what was wrong, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
Jodapop ( talk) 02:09, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
PS: I'm a student at Copper Hills High School.
I am a prominent sometimes controversial right-of-centre blogger in the UK and have long accepted that as a consequence my Wikipedia entry will be a matter of obsession for left-wingers.
A read of the talk pages will show that for over 5 years I have bitterly complained about the content - without altering it.
I have now changed my policy and am determined to correct falsehoods and prevent it being used to only record negative information about me.
If you look at the talk pages you will see references to various profiles and broadcast documentaries from credible organisations which take a far more balanced view of me.
There is a concerted effort by left-wing bloggers to slant my entry, just Google around and you will find blogs and hundreds tweets about my trying to correct the record.
When the entry has in the past included outlandish claims about me it has eventually been corrected. Why should I have to put up with this ongoing onslaught and considerable delays in correcting the record?
For example I am frankly fed up of having to waste my time forinstance correcting false claims about my nationality repeatedly. Can you lock that down?
As for me threatening legal action, today two people repeatedly made false allegations that I had knocked down a woman. This claim has been made on left-wing blogs in the past. as a result I have gone to the trouble of collecting video evidence of the woman concerned stating otherwise. Now if Wikipedia edits repeatedly and falsely report the opposite what am I supposed to do?
The entry should be locked down in a neutral stable state.
Also it conflates me as a person with the blog brand - which is nowadays mostly written by other people. Please email me your thoughts to guido.fawkes@order-order.com - I do not as a rule watch or understand Wikipedia systems Paul ( talk) 19:06, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
Appreciate the locking down for the moment. Haven't noticed any outright libellous comments this morning. What can we do regarding the balance? It seems to me that minor events in my bio have a disproportionate focus. And there is a conflation of me as a person with the blog's brand. Like thinking the CEO of KFC is Colonel Saunders. -- Paul ( talk) 10:48, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
Only admins can edit the article now, and any request to restore any content must have some convincing arguments and be backed up by reliable sources which the admins will check first. Remember that all claims in a biography must be 100% referenced to reliable, independent sources such as the quality press and TV (what's been said about you or shown on TV can be cited), and if it's wrong, you must take it up with them and not with Wikipedia. Anything which is not accurately sourced must be deleted whether it is from you or the other editors of the article. You really only have two option: Either discuss the issues calmly on the article talk page and reach a compromise with the other editors, or take the official route. Please continue the discussion on the article talk page now.

Kudpung,
I saw that you turned me down for rollback. I understand rollback is a privellege and not a right, so no, I'm not going to stomp around on your page and demand it. I checked the links you used as reasoning, The first one was my block lock. The last one I had was more than a year ago (the most recent two were actualyl in error, noted so by the sysop, who put it on then took it off ) The second link was to a a message left on my page by Tarc. I'd removed uncvil stuff on his page per the policy WP:Removeuncivil. Don't worry, I'm not going to lawyer about it, I get that the block log looks bad. I also get that as there's no hard and fast criteria for what a user has to have in order to expect rollback to be granted, that it's left up to the interpretation of the granter. Again, no problem.
I will point at that per WP:ROLLBACK I do have a history that shows an ability to distinguish good edits from vandalism and even test edits from vandalism, so I disagree with your assesment that I don't understand the rules and am curious as to which rules you think I didn't understand. Your second diff, in fact, shows that I undestand removeuncvil and was acting on it. I look forward to hearing back from you. "....We are all Kosh...." <-Babylon-5-> 13:05, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
@Kosh: BTW, if you ,are going to get involved with maintenance tasks that will bring you in contact with a lot of people who are not regulars here, you may wish to get a signature that demonstrates the maturity of the job you wish to do, provides the expected links, and more accurately reflects your user name. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk)
So far, you've given me two links, one to a block log ( a year old ) and an exchange where WP:Removeuncivil was used. I've commented on both, so no need to bring it back up again. My edit summaries are terse to be sure, however, be aware, they used to be longer but I was told that was improper, even though the exact reason of the revert was specific, so I began using terse summaries, and yes, sometimes I put a goofy summary in. Oddly enough, I got a few complaints that me edit summaries are now too short. Bottom line, a complaint's gonna happen either way, so I choose to keep them terse and to the point. None of this shows a mis-understanding of the rules. You brought up my signature, it's below the max length and contains no images, no links to "sign my guestbook", it contains my name and a link to my talk page, as required (and yes, "Kosh" is short for KoshVorlon). So far, nothing you've said shows that I don't understand the rules here.
Intersting that you mentioned Fluffernutter, yes, she put a note on my page about Tarc's edit notice. Notice that she doesn't disagree with my judgement on that edit notice ? Her request was that I start a discussion on it, that's it.
Also, how realistic is to ask a vandal fighter to generate no complaints ? It isn't , if you think about it. A vandal fighter's gonna get complaints, it's all part of removing vandalism. See you around. "....We are all Kosh...." <-Babylon-5-> 16:17, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for deleting Rk šibenik. I knew it was eastern European, but that's as far as I got. I've been playing with the NewPagesFeed, and getting into New Page Patrol on an occasional basis. The new tool makes it much easier for me to face into the firehose stream of information on Recent Changes. I've been watching what a lot of others do, but may need to ask some questions from time to time. In most cases the course of action seems clear, but in others not so. So far I've been following the guides on New Page Patrol, adding cats and stubsort tags, providing project banners on redlinked talk pages, tagging as speedy in the rare cases I see such needed. (As an aside, I've adopted BrokenRedirects as a place where I can get experience with CSD tagging.) Is there a simple criteria for marking as patrolled? How much time does the average patroller give to an individual article? I'll watch here for response. BusterD ( talk) 16:01, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
I noticed you declined my request. How long do you think i should wait before re-requesting?-- Anderson (Public) ( talk) 03:01, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung! I think that it would be best if I stopped clerking at PERM for the time being. There is no urgency for user rights, but there is an urgency for NPP, which is often backlogged. I see that other admins, such as yourself have gotten involved at PERM. Also, many inexperienced new users have gotten involved. Just as we don't need RFA clerks, we don't need PERM clerks, too. Getting minor rights is not urgent, and the admins who worked there didn't work there before their RFA. Beforehand, GB fan and BMW were the only admins who worked at confirmed. Anyways, I'd still like to have you teach me in the NPP course how to determine if a user is ready for user rights or not. It's a skill that cannot be taught by just reading policies. Anyways, thanks for all of your help. I'm going back to Special: Newpages. Best, Electric Catfish 15:00, 26 August 2012 (UTC).
Hi, Kudpung. I was just wondering why you tagged the above article? Everything is sourced (one from her own website, one from Entertainment Weekly, and one from The Huffington Post). Also, she definitely meets the GNG; she is a senior writer for EW and has her own book. In addition, her work has been included in many other magazines/websites.

I've had a look at the two bios ( Marion Mack and Donald E. Wilkes Jr.) that are tagged with needing more reliable sources and I've added to both. I have to say I surprised that Wilkes was tagged for this - a university faculty biography is a lot more reliable than many publisher's blurb. That said I've taken out the bit about the number of articles published as a) it used the same reference but you can see a full list and b) does sound hagiographic. Instead there is mention of his being the first to apply the concept of New Federalism to the US Criminal Justice system. He wrote three essays on the topic in the 1970s the first of which is cited almost 350 times in other works google scholar result, wasn't sure whether or even how to cite this though. Hope you'll revisit my autopatrol application favourably. NtheP ( talk) 17:48, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
I know that you teach WP:NPP and CSD policy, but I was wondering if you had any advice on what to do with the pages at the back of the unpatrolled policy. I find most pages there to be quite - well, I don't know what to do with them. Any advice there? If I don't see anything wrong and they looked properly tagged (they have {{
unsourced}}
, {{
onesource}}
or whaever would be necessary to that article, should I click mark as patrolled? I know there must be some responsibility taken but I'm never quite sure if I should click, because I might be missing something.

I am writing to report that 173.63.176.93 is still block evading w/out logging in and editing since you freed up that IP, an action which I disagree with. Same old anti-UK edits, as well as to the same articles he's edited before. Unless you've forgotten, Thmc1 isn't a stale, active account, but a BLOCKED sockmaster since June of 2010. So, what action are you planning next? Hopefully, another investigation won't be necessary. As you can clearly see, he's violated the temporary unblock that you granted him since the IP was freed up on August 18. Check out the logs for yourself.

I was on NPP when I came across British Family, added a couple of tags and went back to the page and did a recce of the page history and page creator talk page when the tags were removed. Funny thing is page creator talk page indicates that page was tagged for speedy deletion twice while page history shows no such thing. So, back to the question, am I missing something here? Sesamevoila ( talk) 13:34, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
Go here, try to figure it out for yourself and if you don't come up with the answer, let me know and I'll tell you. I'm really pleased that you are asking questions like this, it shows great thinking that most patrollers don't do. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 14:03, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
P.S. I've been using the new pages feed and though I find it much easier on the eyes than the old feed, I still find myself reaching for Twinkle when it comes to tagging, probably because one doesn't need to go through different tabs to locate the appropriate tag. The new feed would be even better if it showed the time of new page creation in local time instead of the present GMT? Sesamevoila ( talk) 06:54, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
Hello. Yes, I had undertaken those checks, and had not found significant copyvios anywhere. Is there a problem regarding this aspect now? ~*~ Ankit Bhatt~*~ 16:38, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
In your comment about edit summaries on my rollback request section, you mentioned that I should try not to express my thoughts as much in my edit summaries. I realize that I do tend to have a habit of doing that, but I couldn't find that anywhere at the Wikipedia guidelines. Is it because rollbackers are held to a higher standard than others? If you could please elaborate and/or tell me where I can find more information about that, if possible. Thanks. I also realize that you're probably sleeping at the time of this writing, so I'll be patient. Lighthead þ 17:12, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
It's not a 'standard' for rollbackers, everyone should understand the use of edit summaries. Read WP:ES. There is also the fact that most newcomers and vandals (and a lot of more experienced users) don't even know what a page history is and where to find one.

Kudpung, I've honestly seen enough, and with this recent STiki incident, I think that it would be best if I left the CVUA. I have title=Wikipedia%3ACounter-Vandalism_Unit%2FAcademy%2FStatus&diff=509604383&oldid=509604280 moved myself to inactive. Electric Catfish 14:04, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
