Hey--
Just to recap the last portion of our conversation, now archived on page 34:
I propose to watch and see what IP does once the freeze is lifted. I tend to think he'll simply revert again, as he did before. At that point, a possible strategy might be to reinsert edits piecemeal (with cites), rather than simply revert, and see just what he backs out. Would that be a reasonable approach? Thanks again, Witzlaw 15:10, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Very reasonable. That approach makes the situation very clear to third parties and much easier to remedy. Don't be shy about reporting the deletion of referenced material as vandalism. Just remain polite and patient and keep making the page a better article. Best regards, DurovaCharge! 16:00, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Just FYI: As predicted, IP reverted the last set of changes. But before I could do anything, another anonymous IP editor reverted also. Assuming there is another edit war (which, I emphasize, I am not presently involved in), it may become difficult even to perform piecemeal changes to the content. For now, I will hold off on further action, at least through the end of this week. Witzlaw 00:46, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Hello,
An Arbitration case in which you commented has been opened: Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Alkivar. Please add any evidence you may wish the Arbitrators to consider to the evidence sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Alkivar/Evidence. You may also contribute to the case on the workshop sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Alkivar/Workshop.
On behalf of the Arbitration Committee, Picaroon (t) 21:24, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry to have to come back here, but I just wanted to get your opinion on something. Would you consider this to be a personal attack? When I saw this on Talk:Michael Vick, I did take this as an attack. I'm not complaining about this or anything; I just want an opinion about this. To me, this seemed like Chris was calling me stupid for "not answering his questions." But that's just how I viewed his remark. Ksy92003 (talk) 00:38, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
If that's bait, Chris took it. And I can't ignore it on my own user page. One week. Durova Charge! 02:53, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Guys, I'm concerned about the whole direction this is taking. Rather than let things get personal, it's usually a lot more successful to add references to the article or open a request for comment to bring in fresh perspectives. Durova Charge! 15:41, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
You said, "Several of my coaching students recently got their mops so I've got a couple of open slots right now. Interested Wikipedians are welcome to drop me a line." so I'm posting to say "interested". Any help you can offer would be much appreciated. Sheffield Steel talk stalk 19:46, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Your evidence against Burntsauce should probably be presented to the Arbcom (if you have not already done so privately), and maybe also send it to Alkivar if he hasn't seen it. — Random832 20:33, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

The above-linked arbitration case has closed. Giovanni33 and John Smith's are subject to identical editing restrictions for one year. They are limited to one revert per page per week (excepting obvious vandalism), and are required to discuss any content reversions on the page's talk page. Should they exceed this limit or fail to discuss a content reversion, they may be blocked. For the Arbitration Committee, Picaroon (t) 20:11, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry Durova but I don't understand it. How can asking a question be a violation of WP:POINT?-- G-Dett 22:24, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
Hey Durova. I was just looking at WP:AN/3RR, as I have thought about my future RfA and have told myself that I would like to take part in dealing with WP:3RR violations. I saw that one user blocked somebody for 6 hours for their first offense, and that got me to thinking about something. For 3RR violations, is there any sort of standard time scale for the durations of blocks (such as a certain duration for the first violation, a different duration for the second violation, etc.)? Or is it all just an administrators' judgment? Ksy92003 (talk) 03:34, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
We've begun an exchange but I'm not optimistic. I will be away for 10 days or so. We need guidance from the BLP noticeboard and we may need a decision or 3O about where to put the information about spouses. I'm not sure what your role is at this point but any help would be appreciated. WaverlyR 12:01, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Please excuse my ignorance as I am not a regular wikipedian nor very computer savvy. I came across this post about our company through Google Alerts. I posted a reply/request through the post and through Spamwatcher's page (I am NBRIin the post, but I suppose you knew that) and have not received any response. I found you through the posting on his My Talk page (with a threat of banishment). Has Spamwatcher been banished? Or perhaps I do not know where to go to find the response? I have looked on my "My Talk" page as well as that of Spamwatcher and can find nothing.
I have attempted to read the rules and guidelines before asking these questions, but most do not seem to be addressed.
Do I just need to be patient and wait for a response from Spamwatcher?
Any information is greatly appreciated.

I'm on the fence about whether Oswald acted alone, but he was most definitely involved and could well have been the lone triggerman. I don't like artificial turf, but if you're going to have a Metrodome, you pretty much have to have it. I'm not necessarily a huge fan of the DH, but I like offense, and there is nothing interesting about seeing the pitcher come up to bat and strike out. I suffered through the Bob Buhl season with the Cubs, when he never got one hit all year. So if they can't learn to either hit or lay down a bunt, they shouldn't be batting. Having said that, a pitcher that can hit is a joy to behold. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 22:28, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
