I'm curious why the International Aikido Federation stub was deleted (by you) despite the justification for notability that was in that stub's talk page. Had any disagreement been raised to that justification? (Is there a way to view the talk history of a deleted page?) Was the deletion because the article was still just a stub, or genuinely because you think it is not notable? Cesiumfrog ( talk) 15:29, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
None of the arguements for deletion of this page were valid. I researched every score from every year personally and created this page for the thousands of people that ever witnessed or played in these games. It is very difficult to research this information as all of the Scranton Times archives are on micro-film. I did this as a benefit to all those interested, and there are many. What harm did this page do? Lou72JG ( talk) 19:42, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi. If you refused my access because I have just 424 contributions that's fine, but refusing my access because I was mentioned in the ANI this doesn't make sense to me.

Per your comment, Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/212.187.213.69, can you clarify. If the other IP doesn't make it clear they are continuing a dispute from another IP, surely that ommission of fact is technically pretending to be someone else. His edit summary See discussion page. Undoing this edit can be interpreted both ways, as a continuer, or a new person. This complicates matters, as I believe I have adequately commented on the original IPs talk page about the reverts, and do not want to appear to have not engaged the second IP before reverting them, if they do not discuss and merely continue to revert.

Please block this user, who is one of the many socks/possible TOR nodes of a serial troll/vandal. This one just wasn't discovered yet, I suppose. I followed some contributions and discovered this IP user. My guess is that it is a TOR exit, based on recent developments.
Evidence: This edit and this edit are identical to this edit which was made by a blocked IP recently used by the subject troll/vandal. That latter IP was also responsible for this edit as an example.

Wonders never cease. A man asked me the other day if I was familiar with the term "bezzler." I said that I learned about it on Wikipedia from an eccentric user. In fact, I added it to my vocabulary list last year when I found (somewhat to my surprise) that it was a legitimate word. This made for lively dinner table discussion with my wife!

Ryan Postlethwaite ( talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) has apparently gotten a bug up his butt by the fact that I tag indef-blocked or about-to-be-indef-block user talk pages with {{ temporary userpage}} and has ordered me to stop. When asked why, he simply says (to paraphrase) "because I said" and (directly) "This is disruptive because these talk pages shouldn't be deleted". I know that you've deleted such pages in the past: perhaps a word with him to actually do more than wave his hands and issue threats backed by nothing would be helpful here. -- Calton | Talk 15:47, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi! I noticed that you were the deleting admin in this AfD last year: AfD: Eleusis/Zwitterion. I wonder if it would be possible for me to get a copy of the last version of that page for a non-WP article that I'm working on. I'm mostly interested in the press links from the end of it (i.e., you don't have to worry about me reusing the copyrighted text). Thanks greatly in advance! Heather ( talk) 16:55, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi Wknight, I see you got the job of blocking the lot of them. I noticed their creation a day or two ago, and I knew in my heart this wasn't legit, but didn't think I could justify blocking them right off (although I briefly toyed with a pre-emptive block, with a promise to unblock if they could explain the names and the 5 account creations). I'm just curious if you would have done things differently than I did if you had noticed them first? I hope my note on their talk page helped a little. In the grand scheme of things, 3 vandal edits weren't damaging, but I really puzzled over what to do there. -- barneca ( talk) 14:01, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi. Noticed you were the protecting admin for Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. Being that it has been indefinitely protected for 2 months now, any chance of opening it back up for edits? Thanks. Yaf ( talk) 18:58, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.
If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight ( talk) 18:43, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Sorry to bother you again on this one, but I was hoping to merge the information from article space into talk space, since the list of references isn't a subpage of the article itself, but instead is a record of references used in the development of the article. This and several other topic based talk sub-pages from 2005 are hanging around from the article's development back then. Could you please merge the information from
AIDS/references to
Talk:AIDS/references, so they can then be moved into properly formatted talk archives. -

Hi - I noticed you were the admin that concluded a debate on renaming the article shoegazing, which ended with no consensus back in August 06 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Shoegaze#Requested_move. Apparently there's been another debate which has concluded the page should be renamed (according to the article edit history) - however, this didn't happen on the article talk page - or anywhere else I can find for that matter. Any chance you could help shed light on this or perhaps let me know what is a fair way to proceed? NickW ( talk) 13:30, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
I saw the unprotection reason of my talk page. My suicide claim was not a prank. It was a method, and a very stupid method, I admit, to get away from the person who was stalking me. I'd appreciate your support in my trying to change this account's name to Vampire Warrior, and to remove the Sockpuppet status because ImmortalKaine is my old account, but I forgot the password and email. Vampire Warrior II ( talk) 16:41, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
So, is there a way to block a word from being added to an article? I know links can be blacklisted, but is there something like that which is article-specific?
The reason I ask is that the following keeps being added to Ashton Kutcher:
Admittedly funny, but inappropriate for here. It started out around the beginning of this month, with Fistsofham. Now it's also coming from various IPs. I think it's likely the same person. It's low level vandalism, but annoying and repetitive. I was hoping there might be a way of blocking the word Cylon from being added to the article. Probably a vain hope, but thought I'd ask. Thanks! :) -- Ebyabe ( talk) 18:03, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
I was recommended by another user to come talk to you. I am wondering if it'd be possible to have my original account, Vampire Warrior unblocked. If I may, I can clear up a few things. The suicide note, as I've stated was my way of ditching the stalker. The police did show up to my house after tracking my IP and I explained it all to them. As for ImmortalKaine, he isn't a sockpuppet, persay, but an old account of mine. I forgot the password to the account and I don't remember the email I used. So I was wondering if I can get Vampire Warrior unblocked and I can move my userpages over to his name myself (if that's possible). I've taken some time to cool down. It's been about 4+ months since I was last here. I'm also on new meds so I'm much calmer, etc. Thanks for a speedy reply! Vampire Warrior II ( talk) 18:58, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Yesterday you removed the page 'triangle moovment' because it dosent have any significance/importance. However, where i live (derby) it has a lot of significance and is now a large group of people with over 300 members and ranges all acroos derby and partly nottingham, I know i didnt post any evidence that it had any significance on the actual page because i am not quite sure how to show you it does. I assure you this page has great significance in our part of england and a lot of members are deeply dissapointed you removed it. If you had a look at the talk page of the 'triangle moovment' you would of seen i had promised to find evidense by tonight which i intended to do if you gave me a chance!!. Anyway, can you please un-delete the page because it does have significance, maybe not to you, but it does to many people around my area. Thanks. 03thowoo ( talk) 07:16, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Greetings, Wknight94. You removed the CSD templates I placed on American Specialty Cars. I'm curious about your edit summary, in which you stated Article has been like this for over a year so "speedy" is impossible at this point. Can you kindly please explain how the latter follows from the former? The first paragraph of the speedy deletion protocol states In this context, "speedy" refers to the simple decision-making process, not the length of time since the article was created. Perhaps there's a countermanding provision I've overlooked...? Thanks for your time. — Scheinwerfermann ( talk) 22:51, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Wknight94, will you please take half a minute to point me at the provisions you cite?

Regulation per se is one of my areas of interest, and I do best when I can see how the regs are written. Thanks! — Scheinwerfermann ( talk) 16:33, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Wknight94, I thought my two requests for clarification were pretty basic, but your nonresponse suggests I might've misstepped, so I've opened a WQA to try to get some perspective on the matter. Just FYI, I hold no grudge against you for cancelling my nomination for speedy deletion. Regards, Scheinwerfermann ( talk) 17:56, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
The information has allready been merged into another article, as I mentioned in teh speedy tag. Do I need to do a 5-day nominate for delete now, or what?

He declared he no longer intended to edit Wikipedia. He was blocked for vandalism. He evaded the block in order to repeatedly accuse another editor of being a pedophile. How is that acceptable behavior? An indefinite block is not an infinite block. He is welcome to request an unblock, and if he withdraws the accusations against Another Solipsist and apologizes, I'd support unblocking him. But I do not tolerate personal attacks of that nature. Oh and I do not accept that a message saying "prove to me you're not a pedophile" is anywhere close to sufficient. Sorry, Gwernol 16:53, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
WKnight, I really appreciate your kind words in defense of me more than you'll know. I sorta blew a gasket though, and apologized to everyone.

Hi Wknight, I noticed that you called this a content dispute. However, this editor is removing clearly cited information and changing other parts of the cited info so that it is not correct. This article has been trolled frequently by extension school alumni who try to make the school look better. Anyway, he's also blanking the article talk page [23] where another user stated that he questions the "article's statement about HES having a "rigorous" admissions policy."

Hello Wknight94,
I would like to draw your attention that some users (e.g. Number_57) are trying to destroy the delete review of The sons of Eilaboun by adding notes, and unhelpful remarks "Note that FriedenMann (talk · contribs) is one of the meatpuppets in question" and someone added a warning tag.
I found the following article that might explain this:
Wikipedia Under Attack by Pro-Israel Groups Distorting Palestinian History
http://theinternetguy.wordpress.com/2008/04/22/wikipedia-under-attack-by-pro-israel-groups-distorting-palestinian-history/
Please do something about it, because each time any user votes against the deletion of the article, he is labeled as a meatpuppet.
The user Number_57 seams eager to delete the article "The sons of Eilaboun".
Regards,
FriedenMann (

Could you please provide me an explanation for the deletion of the publicly-released governmental photo image of June Anderson recently receiving the Commandeur medal from the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres? Your notation (like those given for dozens of other images you deleted on June 15) simply says "invalid justification" which is not terribly informative. In addition, I was not notified in advance and I believe the policy you cited expressly states that: "Non-free images or media that are used in at least one article and that fail any part of the non-free content criteria (except criterion 1) may be deleted forty-eight hours after notification of the uploader, except that for media uploaded before July 13, 2006 or tagged with the Replaceable fair use template, the uploader will be given seven days to comply with this policy after being notified.

I hope that I have made a constructive contribution to Wikipedia - even though I have embarrassed myself (even being suspended) several times, and have bullied some decent editors - even driving them off the site. "Tecmobowl" probably was the most unique editor I encountered, but there were others. I hope that I haven't done enough people wrong to cost me my chance to go to heaven.

Weird contribs. It's possible they're all friends, but if you look more closely at the edits, there's something very odd going on there. Notice how he adds the list of friends to some pages. I dunno. It smells funny. Also, one of the listed editors is one you indefinitely blocked (MrSaucePaste). Enigma message 17:08, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
I think it is Pats1 who stalked me. It is he who is not following rules. I am always glad to discuss, but not with Pats1. His position is that he wants it HIS way and his way alone. This is a pattern for him, he wants final editorial approval on many NFL project stuff. I don't think he's the king. If you want to discuss fine, or anyone else. However, why is it not suggested that Pats1 edit somewhere else? He only edits Chris Long to get his way. He only does it because he does not like things done it defiance of himself. You say how he stalked me. It was clear. True, I wore out my welcome with you and others, but that does not change the fact that Pats1 is being uncivil in his constant editing of things I edit. 72.0.36.36 ( talk) 01:57, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Why is it vandalism to post the truth about Joe Morgan? He blatantly makes up facts on the air and that was just 1 of them. It is public knowledge that Ernie Banks was with the Cubs until 1971 and it is also known that the basket was built in 1970. He only hit 8 home runs during that time so why would it be called Banks Boulevard for that? It makes no sense because he just makes things up. Summerguy811 ( talk) 21:12, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Is this baseball player really that famous? I generally tend to just keep notable people with the same name on the same footing unless one in particular is uber-famous (like a President or something); peoples is peoples. I'm fine with the sportsman being the main article, if you are fine with a WP:HAT over to the article on the convict. The journalist who is my main source is writing a sprawling book about the whole case (which I guess was kind of a big deal at the time, intersects in many ways with the Red Scare oddly enough) so don't be surprised if some years down the road the bookish class insists on a dab. -- Kendrick7 talk 22:30, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, here's a semi-provocative question, or essay. Awhile back, I tried to create a small article for the McFarland Publishing Company. They're kind of a "niche" market supplier, for academic books and also special sports books (such as the Ernest Lanigan Baseball Cyclopedia reprint). It was quickly clobbered for being "not notable". Well, maybe you've seen this AFD / ANI debate about some obscure computer language that no one can find references for but several folks are fighting for it anyway. In contrast, there are hundreds of references to McFarland on Google, a number of which are contained within wikipedia articles (and not just ones that I wrote, either). So I wonder if this is the time to re-introduce that article (such as it is) and find all the McFarland references in wikipedia and link them to the article. P.S. I have no connection whatsoever to that company, I just think it's a good source for certain kinds of books. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 17:44, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Per your comment, Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/212.187.213.69, can you clarify. If the other IP doesn't make it clear they are continuing a dispute from another IP, surely that ommission of fact is technically pretending to be someone else. His edit summary See discussion page. Undoing this edit can be interpreted both ways, as a continuer, or a new person. This complicates matters, as I believe I have adequately commented on the original IPs talk page about the reverts, and do not want to appear to have not engaged the second IP before reverting them, if they do not discuss and merely continue to revert.

Hi Wknight, I see you got the job of blocking the lot of them. I noticed their creation a day or two ago, and I knew in my heart this wasn't legit, but didn't think I could justify blocking them right off (although I briefly toyed with a pre-emptive block, with a promise to unblock if they could explain the names and the 5 account creations). I'm just curious if you would have done things differently than I did if you had noticed them first? I hope my note on their talk page helped a little. In the grand scheme of things, 3 vandal edits weren't damaging, but I really puzzled over what to do there. -- barneca ( talk) 14:01, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.
If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight ( talk) 18:43, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Sorry to bother you again on this one, but I was hoping to merge the information from article space into talk space, since the list of references isn't a subpage of the article itself, but instead is a record of references used in the development of the article. This and several other topic based talk sub-pages from 2005 are hanging around from the article's development back then. Could you please merge the information from
AIDS/references to
Talk:AIDS/references, so they can then be moved into properly formatted talk archives. -

So, is there a way to block a word from being added to an article? I know links can be blacklisted, but is there something like that which is article-specific?
The reason I ask is that the following keeps being added to Ashton Kutcher:
Admittedly funny, but inappropriate for here. It started out around the beginning of this month, with Fistsofham. Now it's also coming from various IPs. I think it's likely the same person. It's low level vandalism, but annoying and repetitive. I was hoping there might be a way of blocking the word Cylon from being added to the article. Probably a vain hope, but thought I'd ask. Thanks! :) -- Ebyabe ( talk) 18:03, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
I was recommended by another user to come talk to you. I am wondering if it'd be possible to have my original account, Vampire Warrior unblocked. If I may, I can clear up a few things. The suicide note, as I've stated was my way of ditching the stalker. The police did show up to my house after tracking my IP and I explained it all to them. As for ImmortalKaine, he isn't a sockpuppet, persay, but an old account of mine. I forgot the password to the account and I don't remember the email I used. So I was wondering if I can get Vampire Warrior unblocked and I can move my userpages over to his name myself (if that's possible). I've taken some time to cool down. It's been about 4+ months since I was last here. I'm also on new meds so I'm much calmer, etc. Thanks for a speedy reply! Vampire Warrior II ( talk) 18:58, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Yesterday you removed the page 'triangle moovment' because it dosent have any significance/importance. However, where i live (derby) it has a lot of significance and is now a large group of people with over 300 members and ranges all acroos derby and partly nottingham, I know i didnt post any evidence that it had any significance on the actual page because i am not quite sure how to show you it does. I assure you this page has great significance in our part of england and a lot of members are deeply dissapointed you removed it. If you had a look at the talk page of the 'triangle moovment' you would of seen i had promised to find evidense by tonight which i intended to do if you gave me a chance!!. Anyway, can you please un-delete the page because it does have significance, maybe not to you, but it does to many people around my area. Thanks. 03thowoo ( talk) 07:16, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Greetings, Wknight94. You removed the CSD templates I placed on American Specialty Cars. I'm curious about your edit summary, in which you stated Article has been like this for over a year so "speedy" is impossible at this point. Can you kindly please explain how the latter follows from the former? The first paragraph of the speedy deletion protocol states In this context, "speedy" refers to the simple decision-making process, not the length of time since the article was created. Perhaps there's a countermanding provision I've overlooked...? Thanks for your time. — Scheinwerfermann ( talk) 22:51, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

He declared he no longer intended to edit Wikipedia. He was blocked for vandalism. He evaded the block in order to repeatedly accuse another editor of being a pedophile. How is that acceptable behavior? An indefinite block is not an infinite block. He is welcome to request an unblock, and if he withdraws the accusations against Another Solipsist and apologizes, I'd support unblocking him. But I do not tolerate personal attacks of that nature. Oh and I do not accept that a message saying "prove to me you're not a pedophile" is anywhere close to sufficient. Sorry, Gwernol 16:53, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
WKnight, I really appreciate your kind words in defense of me more than you'll know. I sorta blew a gasket though, and apologized to everyone.

Hi Wknight, I noticed that you called this a content dispute. However, this editor is removing clearly cited information and changing other parts of the cited info so that it is not correct. This article has been trolled frequently by extension school alumni who try to make the school look better. Anyway, he's also blanking the article talk page [23] where another user stated that he questions the "article's statement about HES having a "rigorous" admissions policy."

Could you please provide me an explanation for the deletion of the publicly-released governmental photo image of June Anderson recently receiving the Commandeur medal from the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres? Your notation (like those given for dozens of other images you deleted on June 15) simply says "invalid justification" which is not terribly informative. In addition, I was not notified in advance and I believe the policy you cited expressly states that: "Non-free images or media that are used in at least one article and that fail any part of the non-free content criteria (except criterion 1) may be deleted forty-eight hours after notification of the uploader, except that for media uploaded before July 13, 2006 or tagged with the Replaceable fair use template, the uploader will be given seven days to comply with this policy after being notified.

Weird contribs. It's possible they're all friends, but if you look more closely at the edits, there's something very odd going on there. Notice how he adds the list of friends to some pages. I dunno.

I think it is Pats1 who stalked me. It is he who is not following rules. I am always glad to discuss, but not with Pats1. His position is that he wants it HIS way and his way alone. This is a pattern for him, he wants final editorial approval on many NFL project stuff. I don't think he's the king. If you want to discuss fine, or anyone else. However, why is it not suggested that Pats1 edit somewhere else? He only edits Chris Long to get his way. He only does it because he does not like things done it defiance of himself. You say how he stalked me. It was clear.

Why is it vandalism to post the truth about Joe Morgan? He blatantly makes up facts on the air and that was just 1 of them. It is public knowledge that Ernie Banks was with the Cubs until 1971 and it is also known that the basket was built in 1970.

The journalist who is my main source is writing a sprawling book about the whole case (which I guess was kind of a big deal at the time, intersects in many ways with the Red Scare oddly enough) so don't be surprised if some years down the road the bookish class insists on a dab. -- Kendrick7 talk 22:30, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, here's a semi-provocative question, or essay. Awhile back, I tried to create a small article for the McFarland Publishing Company. They're kind of a "niche" market supplier, for academic books and also special sports books (such as the Ernest Lanigan Baseball Cyclopedia reprint). It was quickly clobbered for being "not notable". Well, maybe you've seen this AFD / ANI debate about some obscure computer language that no one can find references for but several folks are fighting for it anyway. In contrast, there are hundreds of references to McFarland on Google, a number of which are contained within wikipedia articles (and not just ones that I wrote, either). So I wonder if this is the time to re-introduce that article (such as it is) and find all the McFarland references in wikipedia and link them to the article. P.S. I have no connection whatsoever to that company, I just think it's a good source for certain kinds of books. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 17:44, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Ain't no one gonna deny me the fun of helping out around here, let alone some pathetic little nancy-boy. You know who I refer to. :) Thanks again for your help and support. Please forgive me for my moment of weakness. -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 05:16, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
I always want to know where my posts are and stuff, I'm like "Where is it".
Once again think you for telling me about the:
WP:ANI#Jaysweet sent me a message reguarding NE2..
thing.

The photos I got tonight are no better than the one I had uploaded. They're just too far away, unless you get right under it, but then it's very distorted. I need to get a better camera. :\ Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 04:02, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
