Hi, saw the tussle over the flag icon at "City Homicide". I have to say that IMO the flag is just a decoration that adds confusion rather than useful information: the Australian flag is almost indistinguishable from the NZ flag without a magnifying glass; I believe another few flags are similar, too.

Bilby,
I appreciate your comments. I was actually trying to take the advice, and followed one of the editor's advice when I templated Sarah. The first response from BWilkens was "You templated her? WTF?" Now BWilkens also immediately edited the comment to make it much more appropriate, while leaving the same general impression. It gave me the very strong feeling that the admins were circling the wagons, and that I was on my own.
It was also apparent that Wikipedia policies only apply as the admins decide they apply. WP:NOTPERFECT is clear, admins have to respond to queries and Arbcom decisions support that. This may not be the actual practice, but that is what is in writing and editors, unless they have been involved in these cases, have no way of knowing that it is not the actual practice.
I left a final post on Jimbo's page, stating what my focus is now - it's not about Sarah, I never wanted sanctions anyway. The problem that I see is that the immediate reaction of the admins are to protect one of their own, and that there is no assistance for editors that are not familiar with the process.
I don't know if I can convey this properly, but it would have made a tremendous difference if an admin had offered to act as a go between, to try and work out or resolve the issues. It may not have worked, but if even one had made the effort, I would have been able to move past this - but not one admin even offered to do that, and the "drop it" advice just seems like stonewalling to protect their own. There are also no resources or advocates for editors, while it seems that admins rush to defend and advocate one of their own. It leaves me with the feeling that this is a nobility/peasant system, with no recourse for the peasants. Anyway, I thank you for your comments and your explanations.

I'm not sure whether Julia has to declare that she is an atheist for it to be a notable issue - It is something a few liberals have commented on (A google search pulls out a few statements). The closest I think Julia has come to stating her views was on Jon Fayne [1] in the following statement: FAINE: Do you believe in God? PM: No, I don't Jon, I'm not a religious person. Whether or that its an issue worth notable of wikipedia is another matter. (I don't have an opinion either way, I just like details). Cheers Clovis Sangrail ( talk) 13:35, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

As of 18 August, 2010, I will leave forever. It seems I am being bullied on here. After all the work I have done with no credit at all. I will not put up with this no longer. No help from admins, just wanting to block me, why don't you "help" me instead of "picking" on me? I made my mide up basically after I was blocked last time, I almost left but didn't and came back for week and now I am being treated like a person who came out of jail. I'm only aloud to make an edit to page a day, if I am being treated that way it is pointless to return. After 1 year, 5 months, 27 days, "goodbye". Please leave a goodbye message on discussions page if you please. GuineaPigWarrior Forever!

Not a problem. I actually found them for several toy store chains including Kaybee, Toys 'R Us, and Lionel Kiddie City. Plus I know they were being sold in the Federated electronics stores as well (since Atari owned those for a time). I had heard that rumor from Gamespot long before, and I have no idea where it started.

Most of the fight record is wrong, also the romany routes fracas at the fair is not a source for D M Jackson it is for Henry Jackson. The only true source is fighters magazine from 2004 over 6 years ago, also undeafted in bareknuckle fights, we have no source, in fact most of it is un-sourced.

Hey there. :) First of all, just want to let you know that we have a D&D TFA coming up for the 6th!
Just pointing you to this discussion; we're looking to get more articles improved, preferrably to GA or better. I know you have come through with sources before, so take a look and see if there's anything you can add. BOZ ( talk) 17:35, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi there Bilby! You may be wondering, what have I done to sound the alarm this time? Nothing. I'm messaging you in regards to the adopt-a-user program, which currently has a backlog of users wishing to be adopted. This doesn't make much sense, as we have a considerable list of users offer adoption, so there shouldn't be any backlog. I've begun to eliminate this backlog myself through a matching program, but I need your help to make it work. Of course, adoptees and adopters don't have to go through there, but I believe it helps eliminate the backlog because someone is actively matching pairs.
On the list of adopters, I have modified the middle column to say "Interests." It's easier working with other users that have similar interests, so if it's not too much to ask, could you add your interests in the middle column? For example, if I was interested in hurricanes, computers, business, and ... reptiles? I would place those in the middle column. Counter-vandalism and the like can also be included (maintenance should be used as the general term). The more interests, the better, since adoptees can learn more about you and choose the one they feel most comfortable working with. The information about when you're most active and other stuff can go into the "Notes" section to the right.
Finally, I've gone around and asked adoptees (and will in the future) to fill in a short survey so adopters can take the initiative and contact users they feel comfortable working with. We all know that most adoptees just place the adopt me template on their user page and leave it - so it's up to us to approach them and offer adoption. So, please take a look at the survey, adopt those that fit your interests, and maybe watchlist it so you can see the interests of adoptees and adopt one that fits your interests in the future.
Once again, thank you for participating in the adopt-a-user program! If you wish to respond to this post, please message me on my talk page.

I'm not sure where to report this myself, but seeing as you reported Guinea pig warrior in the first place for Edit waring, you might want to look at [2] as it is obviously GPW editing while blocked. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.182.185.51 ( talk) 03:55, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
As of 18 August, 2010, I will leave forever. It seems I am being bullied on here. After all the work I have done with no credit at all. I will not put up with this no longer. No help from admins, just wanting to block me, why don't you "help" me instead of "picking" on me? I made my mide up basically after I was blocked last time, I almost left but didn't and came back for week and now I am being treated like a person who came out of jail. I'm only aloud to make an edit to page a day, if I am being treated that way it is pointless to return. After 1 year, 5 months, 27 days, "goodbye". Please leave a goodbye message on discussions page if you please. GuineaPigWarrior Forever!

I reached the same conclusion about 10-15 minutes earlier, and a careful review of my edits will confirm that. Notice that I haven't actually made an accusation, as others have done; I've merely raised the possibility. Phoenix and Winslow ( talk) 16:03, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

On 23 August 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Edward Both, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Not a problem. I actually found them for several toy store chains including Kaybee, Toys 'R Us, and Lionel Kiddie City. Plus I know they were being sold in the Federated electronics stores as well (since Atari owned those for a time). I had heard that rumor from Gamespot long before, and I have no idea where it started. Some author who surmised it and it grew legs of its own until it became "fact". -- Marty Goldberg ( talk) 05:35, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
I would like to put this up for deletion.
Most of the fight record is wrong, also the romany routes fracas at the fair is not a source for D M Jackson it is for Henry Jackson. The only true source is fighters magazine from 2004 over 6 years ago, also undeafted in bareknuckle fights, we have no source, in fact most of it is un-sourced. The only fights we can prove are two losts, it need to be removed. Diamonddannyboy ( talk) 09:44, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Bilby, I'm inviting you and Gnangarra to participate in mediation regarding the Ugg boots article, to represent all the Aussie and NZ editors in a discussion to resolve the content dispute once and for all. All other editors are welcome to participate as well, should they choose to do so. Please indicate your acceptance on this page. Thanks. Phoenix and Winslow ( talk) 10:26, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
I've submitted the article for formal mediation here and I've named Gnangarra, Factchk, Bilby, Hoary and myself as the main participants. Others are also welcome to participate. Phoenix and Winslow ( talk) 09:31, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I have completed a general cleanup of the adopter information page for the adopt-a-user project, located here. During my cleanup, I have removed several inactive and retired users. In order to provide interested adoptees with an easy location to find adopters, it is essential that the page be up-to-date with the latest information possible. Thus:

You are in violation of the following policy: [3]. You have been following me around WP, harassing me and reverting my edits on a host of unrelated articles for over two years now. The next time you revert one of my edits on an unrelated article, I will bring the appropriate charges against you. I have all of your behavior documented with a long pattern of diffs over the years. Please desist at once--your behavior not only goes against WP policies, but against the spirit of WP. Qworty ( talk) 08:40, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
Do my recollections match yours, or am I off base? BOZ ( talk) 15:08, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
Hey there. :) First of all, just want to let you know that we have a D&D TFA coming up for the 6th!
Just pointing you to this discussion; we're looking to get more articles improved, preferrably to GA or better. I know you have come through with sources before, so take a look and see if there's anything you can add. BOZ ( talk) 17:35, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi there Bilby! You may be wondering, what have I done to sound the alarm this time? Nothing. I'm messaging you in regards to the adopt-a-user program, which currently has a backlog of users wishing to be adopted. This doesn't make much sense, as we have a considerable list of users offer adoption, so there shouldn't be any backlog. I've begun to eliminate this backlog myself through a matching program, but I need your help to make it work. Of course, adoptees and adopters don't have to go through there, but I believe it helps eliminate the backlog because someone is actively matching pairs.
On the list of adopters, I have modified the middle column to say "Interests." It's easier working with other users that have similar interests, so if it's not too much to ask, could you add your interests in the middle column? For example, if I was interested in hurricanes, computers, business, and ... reptiles? I would place those in the middle column. Counter-vandalism and the like can also be included (maintenance should be used as the general term). The more interests, the better, since adoptees can learn more about you and choose the one they feel most comfortable working with. The information about when you're most active and other stuff can go into the "Notes" section to the right.
Finally, I've gone around and asked adoptees (and will in the future) to fill in a short survey so adopters can take the initiative and contact users they feel comfortable working with. We all know that most adoptees just place the adopt me template on their user page and leave it - so it's up to us to approach them and offer adoption. So, please take a look at the survey, adopt those that fit your interests, and maybe watchlist it so you can see the interests of adoptees and adopt one that fits your interests in the future.
Once again, thank you for participating in the adopt-a-user program! If you wish to respond to this post, please message me on my talk page.

You recently made an edit under Sex Pot and now since we have history and your from the same state as me and we do edits on AFL articles. I think your looking up my history. As I do not care about the edit but I do care about you not stalking me. GuineaPigWarrior ( talk) 14:50, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
Well I have only seen that film that was from Asylum and really loved it. Reminds me of Ferris Bueller's day off. Anyway, I don't like you being noisey and stalking me. I have noticed I do have trolling wikipedians after me and you being one of them doesn't help much. So I would like it if you don't look up my edits because I don't look into your bussiness.

Hi Bilby. This is just to confirm, that the bus incident does not comply with Wikipedia policy about including items of trivial local news on pages that are supposed to be a basic description of a school. (See policy note at WP:NOTNEWS). Please continue your valued vigilance and help Wikipedia to comply with policy and keep an eye on the article to avoid any disruptive editing.

Sorry i jumped the gun on the Canberra Raiders pages in reference to Joel leaving, I read the article on nrl.com and realised this and came back to change it myself, but you beat me to it.

Hi Bilby,
Please help to improve and wikify my article on the Intel Modular Server System, so that a repeat of the Cray CX1000 affair does not occur. I have avoided lists of specifications in order to avoid the unintended feel of advertising. If you think anything else should be removed, added, modified, etc., please do so. In addition, kindly inform anyone else who may have expertise for improvement of this article.
