Luna Santin, I was reading up on unblocks, and I saw you were makin' new ones. They're nice and all, but why unblocks? AR Argon 02:43, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
Hello Luna Santin. Could you please comment on this? Thank you in advance, RJ CG 16:29, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
RJ CG admits that he was absent for the duration of his 48 hour block, so it had no material effect on him. Yet he continues to harrass ProhibitOnions on his talk page long after the event [1] -- Martintg 20:50, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

I just made my 7500th edit today. NHRHS2010 Talk 01:57, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
I have edited the last paragraph relating to an alternative to quinine as a bittering agent in Tonic Water. The alternative bittering agent is quassia, not quercetin. The article requests a citation and I should like to offer a couple that refer to what quassia is, namely:
Dictionary of Science & Technology, Academic Press, London, 1992, p1772.
or
The Extra Pharmacopeia 29th Edition, The Pharmaceutical Press, 1992, p 1609.

I'm not familiar with the precise mechanics of installing a citation. But I notice that at the end of the article on Tonic Water and referring to Quassia, an alternative to quinine when used as a bittering agent, a citation is requested. In one of my User Talk communications to you I provided a couple of references which have not been attached to the required location of the article. I will repeat the citation and would request if you would very kindly attach it to the end of the article. The reference to quassia is: Dictionary of Science and Technology, Academic Press, 1992, p 1772, ISBN 0-12-200400-0.
I should also like to ask why my article on the hazards of exploding bottles containing carbonated drinks, has not been accepted/included into Wikipedia. Are you able to correspond using my e-mail address? I assume that you have full access to the list of my contributions for verification and location of submitted articles.
Regards,
-- Edward Willhoft 13:09, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, Luna. I'm doing research on a project that involves wikipedia (tangentially) and was wondering if you would mind answering some friendly questions I have about a few of your comments and administrative decisions. My e-mail is researchfg[at-sign]gmail.com. I'd really appreciate hearing from you! LinLang 04:08, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I know that the semi-protection for Negima!? will expire tonight at 12:51 am GMT. Is the article in your watchlist? It's just because I'm concerned that as soon as the protection expires, the massive vandalism on it might start again, even if the semi-protect template is still up. And I won't logging in around that time until afternoon here (that's morning GMT) because where I work doesn't have an internet connection. Will you keep watch on this article for me? - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 11:19, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
Dear Luna,
What is the point of submitting questions relating to submitted/edited articles when you do not respond to any? Am I wasting my time contributing to Wikipedia?

Information submitted by the user constitutes allegations therefore as a representative of the school, I'd like to request you to remove the content. All necessary documents you can find on our website http://www.cmumed.org. Caribbean Medical University is legally operating medical school on the island of Curacao, therefore such a negative propaganda will require our Legal Department to initiate legal action to resolve the issue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rlewkowski ( talk • contribs) 22:57, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Serafin has been active sockpuppeting again, currently at Nicolaus Copernicus with his known IP and new account User:Buggo1. I'd addressed it at AN/I, after which his account User:Lodz1 and soon after his follow-up account User:Sanos1 were eventually blocked, but nothing has been done about Buggo1 so far and taking it to AN/I seems less practical than having a small group keeping a watchful eye. For example, a small sub-page where a number of two to four admins keep watch on and where suspects can be reported to it with a status (not yet checked, blocked, unrelated) would save the trouble of always bringing up the case anew. May I use User:Luna Santin/Sockwatch/Serafin for that? Sciurinæ 17:28, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi. After spending several days gathering information, I put together Wikipedia:Long term abuse/Madman C. I am concerned about the number and specificity of the threats this user has made, as well as his mental state. Further, I am pretty sure I have tracked down the person's real-world identity. Do you think I have enough here that we should report this to law enforcement? If so, is there some formal process that we or the Foundation can use to report this? Thanks, NawlinWiki 21:12, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello Luna Santina, I would like to welcome you in swahili wikipedia. -- Mohammed Lupinga 12:25, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
I posted a message on a help page re this problem, and was advised that a checkuser might be applicable... I'm not sure how to go about this, however.
Essentially, my problem is as follows. I logged into my wiki account this morning to discover that a dozen or more spurious, non-existent, and in some cases offensive pages had been added to my list. I duly deleted these and changed my password immediately. However, as a few other people do have access to my computer, I'd simply like to establish whether this was an 'inside job', as it were, or the work of some third-party, external hacker. Is there any way of establishing the ip address used when the unwanted alterations were made to my watchlist, and also, the time/date at which these changes were made? Any advice greatly appreciated. Snowbunni 20:00, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

I do not get it. It is very random. I mean there are tons of other articles which are not protected which deserve to be way more than a city. It's a city! Now if i wanted to edit it I could not, it is a waste of an article if it is protected. -- Estadosunidos 22:55, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Well, so much for my attempt to assume good faith with a vandal... [2]... Dreadstar † 06:40, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Madam I am not-so-regular contributor to Wikipedia. Today when I logged in I found that I have been blocked. Let me reiterate that I have in no way vandalized any of WikiPedia's articles or been a nuisance in any way. The message which appeared was : ((unblock-auto|1=195.229.242.84|2=changing to soft block for Szayat|3=HighInBC)) Soft block; you should be able to edit while logged in. Luna Santin 10:15, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
I presume that this is due to some misunderstanding. My I.P address is a dynamic one (I think). I appeal to the authorities to take the necessary action at the earliest.
Thanking You Ecthelion 8
Okay, Luna Santin. Why did you block me from editing "minivans"? In case you haven't noticed, I actually helped the article, instead of vandalizing it. So just to let you know, you don't just block people from editing articles if you don't even know what they are doing. The only thing I did was just that I added some information about minivans. And no, not anything about the GM minivans. So, if you think I'm vandalizing, think again before trying to block me. Just letting you know. Bye.
Because apparently writing your name in capital letters gets your attention faster. Fnord – Gurch 02:54, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
Dear sir, if you actually bothered reading the unblock rationale you would have realised that the editor was merely trying to revert vandalism and bring other users attention to the sneaky tactics used by IP vandals. The Anome tried to justify his ban by claiming he was looking at the "context" of the actions, however if this was the case he would have undid his reversions here and here which he failed to do even though it was brought to his attention twice. He has since locked the talk page to prevent any further criticism of his overzealous actions and the excuses made to justify them, and this has prevented any form of an unblock request. I trust that you will look into the matter accordingly. 58.164.7.68 08:55, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Hello...I have a slight problem that maybe you might be able to help with. The little "menu" at the top of my userpage that has a time, links to my talk page, contribs and the like, and a little saying is normally right in between the line at the top of the page, for some reason it is slid way down (you will see what I mean) and I am not sure how to fix it.

Bimbo wales, death to jimbo ( talk · contribs · count) is no less than the fifth account sporting the name "Bimbo Wales" in as many days. I requested an IP check to see where they keep coming from; she makes socks and immediately uses them (I came across them while on username patrol) to vandalize user pages with swastikas. Please keep an eye out for more Bimbo Wales accounts until the IP check clears and semi-protect your user pages in case she comes after you. - Jéské( v^_^v) 07:22, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

this edit says that moved the following "old reports to archive":
This edit says that you archived Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/IP check/User:HarveyCarter and SPs.

Yet that's what I'm doing. I must be nuts. I'm glad to say that I have done some real editing, so perhaps I'm not a totally lost cause. :) See you 'round. The former Lucky 6.9 via PMDrive1061 01:41, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Thank you. Great to see you as well. There are a couple of users whom I suspect are Daniel Brandt meatpuppets who basically tried to drive me into the dirt. One hasn't edited in a long time and the other still does with a few idiosyncratic edits here and there. I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but these guys really are out to get the admins. Scary. Anyway, I'm trying to give CPR to the nearly abandoned Radio Control Wiki and it's drawn a couple of new users. I guess R/C fans don't write wikis...except for maybe yours truly. Keep on keepin' on.

Thanks for reverting my talk page. I really appreciate that! Au revoir and happy editing! Icestorm815 04:16, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
I have no idea what point you might have been trying to make on talk:Ralph Nader. Here is what the reference says "Nader's presence on the ballot proved crucial". Can you get more clear than that? It goes on to say, "in at least two states". However I suspect the writer didn't take the time to check the results for all 50 states, as there are no other states other than those two, which you can confirm from the other reference. The same reference goes on to say "John Pearce, a California activist who launched a Web site called RalphDontRun.net, said that even if Nader's numbers for the 2000 election were correct, he still tipped Florida and New Hampshire to Bush. If Gore had won either state, he would have won the election." 199.125.109.32 05:33, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

So, maybe a 24-hour (or shorter) block? Given the editing pattern, they might not even be back before the block expires, but they'd see the block notice on their page and maybe get the message? Dppowell 06:28, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey there, I responded to the recent concerns on this user's talkpage. I did quite pointedly ask the user not to recreate his douchebox userbox, but he went and did so anyway. Like I said on EF's talk page, I do apologize if it seemed a bit hasty, and the block can reduced to a definite limit, but I stand by my judgment that the user was doing more harm than good.

[lost edit in progress] Regarding your edit to the talk page for talking about that IP Address, that user specifically allowed me to post in what evolved into the "Jeff G, friends of Jeff G, and amused bystanders please post your comments here" section [4], and some of the warnings I restored for the first time because the user had not admitted to reading them. Now that they have admitted to reading the warnings, it is fair to leave the warnings in the past. I'm sorry if I have been too zealous in restoring deleted warnings to user talk pages. — Jeff G.

I thought hardblocking only had an effect on registered accounts; the documentation's pretty thin about soft/hardblocking in general. I assume that a hardblock on an IP will have a follow-on effect from other IP's? Acroterion (talk) 22:59, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Wow, such kind words! I don't know what to say beside that I'm happy not having destroyed anything yet (even if I'm starting considering using the cluestick on some editors, lately) ;) I can't take all the credit for the unblock mailing list, I almost forgot about it for a while, and just cleared some backlog when I remembered I was supposed to hang there. Yamla is doing most of the work (I know, it's rude to point at people). Just... Thank you for your appreciation, it means a lot!

Does this need to be a hard block? John Reaves 08:04, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
This is clearly administrator abuse.
1. Admin is mad at a checkuser request. Blocks the person. Then uses the excuse that the person is already blocked so no checkuser should be run. A very convincing and specious argument. 2. Admin then page protects the user's talk page so the user can never ask for unblock by uninvolved admin. 3. Complaint appears on ANI so the admin deletes the ANI post and blocks the person who made the edit AND page protects their user page so they can't seek unblock. 4. Admin then calls the complainer a sock of the person that the RFCU was filed against! By calling him a sock, that's a guarantee that nobody will look further.
I saw the ANI then saw it disappear causing me to investigate.
I have a suspicion that the admin is the sock and doesn't want the RFCU run.
I'm a deadman for telling you this. That's what wikipedia is becoming. Do the right thing and be killed (like the others I saw). Jeske needs to be de-sysoped. He's the next Ryulong, a very controversial and savage admin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eyeopener ( talk • contribs) 00:13, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello there,
I see you know how to delete redirect pages. Can you please get some deleted for me? On this template, there are a few inconsistencies. Every presidency page should not, in theory, link to the president himself. For example, the article Presidency of James Monroe does not exist, and consequently, does not redirect to James Monroe. However, a few presidency links on here due indeed redirect to the actual president, and these redirection pages should be deleted. The following articles are:

I remember why I had this blocked.

I just made my 7500th edit today. NHRHS2010 Talk 01:57, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
I have edited the last paragraph relating to an alternative to quinine as a bittering agent in Tonic Water. The alternative bittering agent is quassia, not quercetin. The article requests a citation and I should like to offer a couple that refer to what quassia is, namely:
Dictionary of Science & Technology, Academic Press, London, 1992, p1772.
or
The Extra Pharmacopeia 29th Edition, The Pharmaceutical Press, 1992, p 1609.

I'm not familiar with the precise mechanics of installing a citation. But I notice that at the end of the article on Tonic Water and referring to Quassia, an alternative to quinine when used as a bittering agent, a citation is requested. In one of my User Talk communications to you I provided a couple of references which have not been attached to the required location of the article. I will repeat the citation and would request if you would very kindly attach it to the end of the article. The reference to quassia is: Dictionary of Science and Technology, Academic Press, 1992, p 1772, ISBN 0-12-200400-0.
I should also like to ask why my article on the hazards of exploding bottles containing carbonated drinks, has not been accepted/included into Wikipedia. Are you able to correspond using my e-mail address? I assume that you have full access to the list of my contributions for verification and location of submitted articles.

I know that the semi-protection for Negima!? will expire tonight at 12:51 am GMT. Is the article in your watchlist? It's just because I'm concerned that as soon as the protection expires, the massive vandalism on it might start again, even if the semi-protect template is still up. And I won't logging in around that time until afternoon here (that's morning GMT) because where I work doesn't have an internet connection. Will you keep watch on this article for me? - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 11:19, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Serafin has been active sockpuppeting again, currently at Nicolaus Copernicus with his known IP and new account User:Buggo1. I'd addressed it at AN/I, after which his account User:Lodz1 and soon after his follow-up account User:Sanos1 were eventually blocked, but nothing has been done about Buggo1 so far and taking it to AN/I seems less practical than having a small group keeping a watchful eye. For example, a small sub-page where a number of two to four admins keep watch on and where suspects can be reported to it with a status (not yet checked, blocked, unrelated) would save the trouble of always bringing up the case anew. May I use User:Luna Santin/Sockwatch/Serafin for that? Sciurinæ 17:28, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi. After spending several days gathering information, I put together Wikipedia:Long term abuse/Madman C. I am concerned about the number and specificity of the threats this user has made, as well as his mental state. Further, I am pretty sure I have tracked down the person's real-world identity. Do you think I have enough here that we should report this to law enforcement? If so, is there some formal process that we or the Foundation can use to report this?

Hello Luna Santina, I would like to welcome you in swahili wikipedia. -- Mohammed Lupinga 12:25, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
I posted a message on a help page re this problem, and was advised that a checkuser might be applicable... I'm not sure how to go about this, however.
Essentially, my problem is as follows. I logged into my wiki account this morning to discover that a dozen or more spurious, non-existent, and in some cases offensive pages had been added to my list. I duly deleted these and changed my password immediately. However, as a few other people do have access to my computer, I'd simply like to establish whether this was an 'inside job', as it were, or the work of some third-party, external hacker. Is there any way of establishing the ip address used when the unwanted alterations were made to my watchlist, and also, the time/date at which these changes were made? Any advice greatly appreciated.

Let me reiterate that I have in no way vandalized any of WikiPedia's articles or been a nuisance in any way.

Thanking You Ecthelion 8
Okay, Luna Santin. Why did you block me from editing "minivans"? In case you haven't noticed, I actually helped the article, instead of vandalizing it. So just to let you know, you don't just block people from editing articles if you don't even know what they are doing. The only thing I did was just that I added some information about minivans. And no, not anything about the GM minivans. So, if you think I'm vandalizing, think again before trying to block me. Just letting you know. Bye.
Because apparently writing your name in capital letters gets your attention faster. Fnord – Gurch 02:54, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
Dear sir, if you actually bothered reading the unblock rationale you would have realised that the editor was merely trying to revert vandalism and bring other users attention to the sneaky tactics used by IP vandals. The Anome tried to justify his ban by claiming he was looking at the "context" of the actions, however if this was the case he would have undid his reversions here and here which he failed to do even though it was brought to his attention twice. He has since locked the talk page to prevent any further criticism of his overzealous actions and the excuses made to justify them, and this has prevented any form of an unblock request. I trust that you will look into the matter accordingly. 58.164.7.68 08:55, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

I have no idea what point you might have been trying to make on talk:Ralph Nader. Here is what the reference says "Nader's presence on the ballot proved crucial". Can you get more clear than that? It goes on to say, "in at least two states". However I suspect the writer didn't take the time to check the results for all 50 states, as there are no other states other than those two, which you can confirm from the other reference. The same reference goes on to say "John Pearce, a California activist who launched a Web site called RalphDontRun.net, said that even if Nader's numbers for the 2000 election were correct, he still tipped Florida and New Hampshire to Bush. If Gore had won either state, he would have won the election." 199.125.109.32 05:33, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Hi Luna--would you take a peek at this conversation and let me know whether I'm handling this correctly? I'm trying to play it by the book, but I understand the concerns being raised here. Dppowell 06:08, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
So, maybe a 24-hour (or shorter) block? Given the editing pattern, they might not even be back before the block expires, but they'd see the block notice on their page and maybe get the message? Dppowell 06:28, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
This admin business is trickier than it looks. :-) Thanks! Dppowell 06:36, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the assistance with the IP vandal who consistently vandalized Kappa Alpha Order. After warnings were issued, he continued to vandalize, and you had blocked him. Thank you. Maser ( Talk!) 07:29, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
In the article, Wherever You Are (movie), it has been vandalized for two days now and no one has edited it. This prooves what a disgrace Wikipedia is boo.-- Savetheeggs 22:10, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

The previous message was a test. Please ignore it. And this one -- 144.32.58.192 20:49, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the offer, but I like to have a history of such vandalism in case there is a pattern that I can report. Have a great day! Ward3001 23:55, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
Hey there, I responded to the recent concerns on this user's talkpage. I did quite pointedly ask the user not to recreate his douchebox userbox, but he went and did so anyway. Like I said on EF's talk page, I do apologize if it seemed a bit hasty, and the block can reduced to a definite limit, but I stand by my judgment that the user was doing more harm than good.

You told her you were 'concerned' about a personal attack (WP:NPA) in an article (WP:VAND)...? I'm sorry, no, I want an explanation for why that doesnt result in an immediate block. Jose João 10:01, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
well i was surfing around on wikipedia, and came across this..
i was looking for Acura RSX...
while there, something caught my attention..the first line that the page reads is-
"DRIVEN BY HOMOSEXUALS LIKE MAAACY SMITH"... funny..yes...accurate...maybe...hurting...yes...
i tried editing it by logging in..but as soon as i log in, it disappears..i mean just that line disappears.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tutusinghsohi ( talk • contribs) 18:58, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[lost edit in progress] Regarding your edit to the talk page for talking about that IP Address, that user specifically allowed me to post in what evolved into the "Jeff G, friends of Jeff G, and amused bystanders please post your comments here" section [4], and some of the warnings I restored for the first time because the user had not admitted to reading them. Now that they have admitted to reading the warnings, it is fair to leave the warnings in the past. I'm sorry if I have been too zealous in restoring deleted warnings to user talk pages. — Jeff G.

The Original Barnstar | |
For your cognizant understanding of Wikipedia, and your numerous helpful contributions to AN/I, as well as here, among other places. I award you this barnstar! Which incidentally doubles as a shuriken for use against vandals. KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 16:56, 20 November 2007 (UTC) |
I thought hardblocking only had an effect on registered accounts; the documentation's pretty thin about soft/hardblocking in general. I assume that a hardblock on an IP will have a follow-on effect from other IP's? Acroterion (talk) 22:59, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Wow, such kind words! I don't know what to say beside that I'm happy not having destroyed anything yet (even if I'm starting considering using the cluestick on some editors, lately) ;) I can't take all the credit for the unblock mailing list, I almost forgot about it for a while, and just cleared some backlog when I remembered I was supposed to hang there. Yamla is doing most of the work (I know, it's rude to point at people). Just... Thank you for your appreciation, it means a lot!

Does this need to be a hard block? John Reaves 08:04, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
This is clearly administrator abuse.
1. Admin is mad at a checkuser request. Blocks the person. Then uses the excuse that the person is already blocked so no checkuser should be run. A very convincing and specious argument. 2. Admin then page protects the user's talk page so the user can never ask for unblock by uninvolved admin. 3. Complaint appears on ANI so the admin deletes the ANI post and blocks the person who made the edit AND page protects their user page so they can't seek unblock. 4. Admin then calls the complainer a sock of the person that the RFCU was filed against! By calling him a sock, that's a guarantee that nobody will look further.
I saw the ANI then saw it disappear causing me to investigate.
I have a suspicion that the admin is the sock and doesn't want the RFCU run.
I'm a deadman for telling you this. That's what wikipedia is becoming. Do the right thing and be killed (like the others I saw). Jeske needs to be de-sysoped. He's the next Ryulong, a very controversial and savage admin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eyeopener ( talk • contribs) 00:13, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
Woops I was reviewing this guy's contribs and blocked while you were discussing on the talk page. Feel free to revert my block :). -- lucasbfr talk 13:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
I demand block for this user. Look deeper to see his behaviour. -- Sambure ( talk) 15:13, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
I applaud your plan; thanks very much. However, I would like Sambure reprimanded over this indescribably childish edit.
I would like to suggest a solution: we both get blocked for two hours, followed by which we don't come back. How's it sound?-- Porcupine ( prickle me! · contribs · status) 15:23, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

I have signed up to be an RFCU clerk. I'm an admin and done lots of SSP work and some minor stuff at RFCU. Can you add me to the IRC RFCU clerk room and grant me the bot access? Thanks. — Rlevse • Talk • 21:52, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello there,
I see you know how to delete redirect pages. Can you please get some deleted for me? On this template, there are a few inconsistencies. Every presidency page should not, in theory, link to the president himself. For example, the article Presidency of James Monroe does not exist, and consequently, does not redirect to James Monroe. However, a few presidency links on here due indeed redirect to the actual president, and these redirection pages should be deleted. The following articles are:
Thanks! =) -- MosheA ( talk) 04:57, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
I remember why I had this blocked. It's the individual in Canada who whitewashes all mentions of Saban's productions from articles they belong in and has also changed dates and whatnot on several other pages. I have tried to contact the ISP, but they have not replied, at all.— Ryūlóng ( 竜龍) 03:49, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
Luna, I hope you didn't think I was impersonating an administrator. I just didn't think any administrator wanted to waste their time with that kind of unblock request. Maser ( Talk!) 06:49, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm really sorry. I was not the one messing with the page. I am working on a report on The Enlightenment Period and my friend was messing with my computer while I was preparing something for me to eat. I'm sorry, it won't happen again.
