I'd like to file a lawsuit about wikipedia not allowing free speech. Can you please help me to do this? I have noticed, since edits are being reverteed, this is impeding my right to free speech.

You sent me a message I was vandalising, but I am right. What I put there is true.

Edit: I just read that the addition was considered "unconstructive". I find this very subjective and unjustified since the addition are at least as interesting as the others in the list and definitely differs from the others. The addition is also one of the most annoying superstitions there is so I think it deserves a place on the list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.227.136.241 ( talk) 13:57, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
Sorry for being quick on the draw to restore the AfD tag at Vampires in new york (book). Since there've been issues with the original editor deleting the tags, I didn't want him to get blamed for your inadvertent deletion of the wrong tag. Otherwise, I'd have left it for you to fix yourself.
And if you're like me, you probably just selected the wrong tag. I can't speak for you, but I know I have an edit or two like that a day.

J Delanoy I am not sure but it appears that there were deletions I made to the molecule ethylene glycol dimethacrylate? I added the uniform code to find this molecule (CAS 97-90-5) and also the original reference Beilstein 2, IV, p1523. Additionally I added the formula weight 198.22 This type of reference categories is standard in international Organic polymer chemistry. For students using Wikipedia it would be important. There is no subterfuge that I am aware of Also I added the accepted abbreviation of EGDMA which is the accepted name for the ethylene glycol substituted version. Thus when a student types in EGDMA he is quickly linked to the parent copmpound where the CAS number is geven. When I typed in EGDMA wiki had no match? Thus I thought I was adding information for completeness. I do not do this regularly so I did not open an account. I am a Chemist (MD,PhD) working in polymer biotecnology. What I added was routine but cetainly would make the site much more of a resource. If this is not really acceptable then I understand. Sincerely RHK.

Hello J.delanoy - I've noticed that about a couple of days ago you blocked this user as a sock. Do you know who he/she is a sock of? If this account is a sock it should be tagged with a {{ sockpuppet}} template. I've noticed that it made only two edits: one to Schweinchen Fick's talk page, and one to yours. So, I'm currently thinking it's a Schweinchen Fick sock, but I'd like to know who you think it is so I can tag it accurately. I found Schweinchen Fick because he was vandalizing JamesBurns' talk page (which I had recently turned into a redirect to his user page as JamesBurns is banned). That's also how I found Vördschin killa, when I saw Schweinchen Fick's talk page. By the way, keep up the good work: I've noticed your edits and I must say I'm impressed with how easily you deal with vandals (like as if your ten times better than ClueBot).-- Disturbed Nerd999 (Delete!) 23:08, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

If you believe that WP:SNOW does not apply then I will happily wait out the period of time. Also, I would ask NawlinWiki, as they are the admin who nommed it, except that their contribs show them as being offline at the moment, and I won't be editing tomorrow so I'd quite like to get this done tonight, if that's OK with you, in any case, don't feel obliged to close it just because I asked, thank you, and all the best Spitfire Tally-ho! 19:01, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

This is a continuation of
above. I really hate to say this, but WP appears to be crawling with sockpuppets nowadays. According to behavioral and CheckUser evidence,
HexaChord (who recently claimed that he/she was retired on his/her master account) was the sockmaster behind "SF" and Vördschin killa, as well as a whole lot of other socks that were used for
WP:POINTy behavior (including
Juvenille Deletionist and
Deletion Mutation). I am very disappointed with this, but I just thought I should let you know. You may want to see this
[9]. I am also quite shocked that HexaChord was a sockpuppeteer, kind of like how I felt when I found out about JamesBurns being a disruptive sockpuppeteer. I guess this means that you can't really know someone around here until it's too late. My trust for others around here is now quite small, but you're still one of the people that I trust plenty around here (being a great admin). Basically, what I'm saying is that this is just depressing how easily others whom I've trusted had to use socks to change my mind.
The bottom line is: Watch out for more HexaChord socks.--

Sorry Delanoy but I would really appreciate a comment on the "discussion" between me and ChrisO, even if you deem that I am to blame. I am really fed up with this kingly attitude of his and I think that he is actively searching to intimidate editors (including me), with his "legalistic" arguments and highly unwikilike proposals. He (and others) throw accusations here and there (I really don't know whether this discussion about this "unnamed" editor was about me, Shadowmorph or somebody else), the mentioning of emails personally sent, as though there is some personal discussion going on between you and Taivo (I have confidence in you and the other referees, but I hope you understand that such comments raise questions), the urge for me to go away, the deletion of my "ranting" as though he still was an admin and many more such actions, which clearly do not help. If I would start a topic about "someone" who did this and that, but did not name him, if I acted in such an aggressive way would you and the other referees tolerate that? I know that my words sometimes sound ironic, but at least I am very careful with my words and I consistently try to not accuse people and whenever I think that we do not act towards Wikipedia's interest (as was the case here) I always place myself among those who should rethink and improve. Please, do take a position, even if you think I am wrong in this. GK1973 ( talk) 20:42, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

My understanding was that old or alternative names for something go at the beginning of the articles, so why when the article admits that "The PUMA acronym as originally coined stood for "Party Unity My Ass";" and this is what I think most people who followed the election but not *that* closely know it as; should it not be put in that alternate name spot? At the very least, why is this vandalism rather than an edit dispute? 208.66.212.230 ( talk) 15:13, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Dear J.Delanoy, you said you would do something about the situation in Wikipedia talk:Centralized discussion/Macedonia. The demeaning and intimidating attitude of ChrisO is as alive as always. His arrogance and offensive attitude are clearly a matter where you as a ref should step in. Please do something or just plainly state that I am wrong and his attitude is civil and according to Wiki policy. Thx GK1973 ( talk) 11:48, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
Actually, J.Delanoy, I was actually going to write to you about this myself. I would like you to remove all references to my alleged nationality by users BalkanFever and ChrisO. That would be the entire thread of comments that was initiated by [20] and would definitely include [21], [22] and [23]. I am also asking that oversight be used to permanently delete the edits, as I consider my nationality to be a matter of personal privacy. Further to that, I am requesting that you address BalkanFever's and ChrisO's incivility ( [24], [25]). Editors who do not support their POV have been blocked or banned for much less; allowing them to insult people with impunity is beginning to give the impression of two weights and two measures in conduct policy enforcement. Finally, I am now formally accusing ChrisO of attempted outing, in light of his most recent posting of off-wiki stuff in an attempt to speculate on my real-life identity and ethnicity. Please advise as to what further steps should be taken. -- Radjenef ( talk) 16:01, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

I read that long ago. My favourite part is this : Policy does not prohibit users, including both registered and anonymous users, from removing comments from their own talk pages, although archiving is preferred... Repeatedly restoring warnings does nothing but antagonize users, and can encourage further disruption; removal of template warnings is rarely an urgent or important matter, and it is often best to simply let the matter rest if other disruption stops. 173.79.58.33 ( talk) 18:31, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

If any admin closes it, CoM is less likely to revert. If you wish not to get in the middle of this mess, I will completely understand. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 02:48, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
I disagree with your decision to delete the article on Crabcore as it was somewhat informative and provided good examples. Its stub-like articles like these that help people learn about the new emerging trends in music and the media. I remember this same thing happened back with Hollywood Undead, mods deleted their page claiming that they were not a real band even though they had an EP out and stated one of the reasons why as being "joke band in a joke genre". I think it would be unwise to make a similar mistake, please reconsider un-deleting the crabcore article.

Just a note to say I'm suspicious that the IP you blocked earlier is possibly an IP sock of User:ColScott, of whom I ran afoul because of repeated sock activities.

Sorry to bother you, but you're the first name I recognised on the OTRS lists and I'm unfamiliar with The Ways Of OTRS.
There's a book cover: File:LeapIntoLegend.JPG. It's in use on the artist's page, has been used on the author's page (then removed, the image deleted, now the article AfDed) and would be useful on the article for the book subject Bluebird K7, as there's seemingly nothing else available that isn't copyrighted. The image page seems to claim both OTRS permission by the artist for the artist's page (alone?) whilst retaining copyright, yet it's also tagged (correctly?) as being GFDL and CC-by-sa.
This puzzles me. If it's CC-by-sa, then it's free for use on any article, can't be restricted to one article, and why would there need to be an OTRS ticket at all? Is it really licensed under CC-by-sa?
Can you please either clarify this, or point to where I ought to be looking. Thanks. Andy Dingley ( talk) 22:50, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

User:Radjenef is making unilateral edits to proposal text without discussing them first ( [33] [34] [35]), even though we already entered the RfC phase. I reverted them with explanatory comments ( [36] [37] [38]). Could you please take a look at this and clarify whether such unilateral edits are allowed at this point?

I've posted an article yesterday about Paul Roche The man died in 2007 and was a very important Poet and writer, translated classic Greek tragedies that had never been before. Not to mention that he was part of one of the most important art group in England in the 20th century. He's a published author and still after his death has lot of followers and fans. Yesterday I tried to replace an article and it is just unfair that it was deleted. Paul Roche (the writer poet) is mentioned as a reference in several articles on Wikipedia but the results of that research is Paul Roche, young sportsman from Ireland with a text as small as his success and importance in the world.
This isn't great and makes the content on several articles irrelevant( Like the one about Duncan Grant). Also it is morally important to bring up the most important information first in an encyclopedia. If my cat was called Barrack Obama and had killed 50 mice I wonder if it would be great to have "Barrack hussein Obama president of the United States of America since 2009" as research keywords because my puss would be taking the space. Well it's a about the same thing Between Paul Roche, an amazing Poet, an acclaimed published writer who wrote a movie script "Oedipus the King" where Orson Welles played and an unknown young man from deep deep Ireland who won a few competition at an obscure sport in his local villages. I don't think the one that comes up first should be the sportsman. Also the content of his article is very poor like his career that still really hasn't taken off. I think Wikipedia should be culture orientated and not become a blogging platform for anyone who fancy's himself as part of an encyclopedia. Even if I might post this article in several blogs :)
Also, as an answer to your comment I wanted to say that the author of this article gave me full rights to publish her text. She actually wrote it for the telegraph not the opposite. She's a writer herself. There's no right violation and I can prove it.
My questions are. How do I make sure that this article won't be deleted after 5 minutes again and could we ask the sportsman to add "Paul Roche Hurling player" ? since his tiny career in hurling is not very important compared to the other Paul Roche's achievements over 91 years and that the nice article I'm trying to post might be important for lot of students in literature and classics. Also everytime someone will mention the important Paul Roche (people are unlikely to write in an article Paul Donald Roche (poet)) on Wikipedia he will find that unimportant person instead. It will be a bad thing for culture I think. I won't let go about this one, it just doesn't make any sense.
We know how to use range blocks but there is no problem at all. We apreciate a lot your help against vandalism in greek wikipedia.-- MARKELLOS Leave me a message

I was just posting as TruthPrevailsAgain and you blocked me and I don't understand why. My edits weren't vandalism at all, they were made in good faith. For example: The BOOMj article should say it targets Boomers and Jonesers. The references that were there clearly show that it shoulod include Jonesers. The 'about us' section of their website specifically says they target Boomers and Jonesers. The GenY page should read Boomers and Jonesers, as many artilces on this topic indicate. Why did you think I was vandalising? And why did you immediately block me 20 seconds after warning me? I follow this topic, and saw that another editor was blocked yesterday, and I'd like to help make these pages accurate. Would you please lift this block? Thank you.

J Delanoy I am not sure but it appears that there were deletions I made to the molecule ethylene glycol dimethacrylate? I added the uniform code to find this molecule (CAS 97-90-5) and also the original reference Beilstein 2, IV, p1523. Additionally I added the formula weight 198.22 This type of reference categories is standard in international Organic polymer chemistry. For students using Wikipedia it would be important. There is no subterfuge that I am aware of Also I added the accepted abbreviation of EGDMA which is the accepted name for the ethylene glycol substituted version. Thus when a student types in EGDMA he is quickly linked to the parent copmpound where the CAS number is geven. When I typed in EGDMA wiki had no match? Thus I thought I was adding information for completeness. I do not do this regularly so I did not open an account. I am a Chemist (MD,PhD) working in polymer biotecnology. What I added was routine but cetainly would make the site much more of a resource. If this is not really acceptable then I understand. Sincerely RHK.

Hello J.delanoy - I've noticed that about a couple of days ago you blocked this user as a sock. Do you know who he/she is a sock of? If this account is a sock it should be tagged with a {{ sockpuppet}} template. I've noticed that it made only two edits: one to Schweinchen Fick's talk page, and one to yours. So, I'm currently thinking it's a Schweinchen Fick sock, but I'd like to know who you think it is so I can tag it accurately. I found Schweinchen Fick because he was vandalizing JamesBurns' talk page (which I had recently turned into a redirect to his user page as JamesBurns is banned). That's also how I found Vördschin killa, when I saw Schweinchen Fick's talk page. By the way, keep up the good work: I've noticed your edits and I must say I'm impressed with how easily you deal with vandals (like as if your ten times better than ClueBot).-- Disturbed Nerd999 (Delete!) 23:08, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

This is a continuation of
above. I really hate to say this, but WP appears to be crawling with sockpuppets nowadays. According to behavioral and CheckUser evidence,
HexaChord (who recently claimed that he/she was retired on his/her master account) was the sockmaster behind "SF" and Vördschin killa, as well as a whole lot of other socks that were used for
WP:POINTy behavior (including
Juvenille Deletionist and
Deletion Mutation). I am very disappointed with this, but I just thought I should let you know. You may want to see this
[9]. I am also quite shocked that HexaChord was a sockpuppeteer, kind of like how I felt when I found out about JamesBurns being a disruptive sockpuppeteer. I guess this means that you can't really know someone around here until it's too late. My trust for others around here is now quite small, but you're still one of the people that I trust plenty around here (being a great admin). Basically, what I'm saying is that this is just depressing how easily others whom I've trusted had to use socks to change my mind.
The bottom line is: Watch out for more HexaChord socks.--

Sorry Delanoy but I would really appreciate a comment on the "discussion" between me and ChrisO, even if you deem that I am to blame. I am really fed up with this kingly attitude of his and I think that he is actively searching to intimidate editors (including me), with his "legalistic" arguments and highly unwikilike proposals. He (and others) throw accusations here and there (I really don't know whether this discussion about this "unnamed" editor was about me, Shadowmorph or somebody else), the mentioning of emails personally sent, as though there is some personal discussion going on between you and Taivo (I have confidence in you and the other referees, but I hope you understand that such comments raise questions), the urge for me to go away, the deletion of my "ranting" as though he still was an admin and many more such actions, which clearly do not help. If I would start a topic about "someone" who did this and that, but did not name him, if I acted in such an aggressive way would you and the other referees tolerate that? I know that my words sometimes sound ironic, but at least I am very careful with my words and I consistently try to not accuse people and whenever I think that we do not act towards Wikipedia's interest (as was the case here) I always place myself among those who should rethink and improve.

Dear J.Delanoy, you said you would do something about the situation in Wikipedia talk:Centralized discussion/Macedonia. The demeaning and intimidating attitude of ChrisO is as alive as always. His arrogance and offensive attitude are clearly a matter where you as a ref should step in. Please do something or just plainly state that I am wrong and his attitude is civil and according to Wiki policy. Thx GK1973 ( talk) 11:48, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
Actually, J.Delanoy, I was actually going to write to you about this myself. I would like you to remove all references to my alleged nationality by users BalkanFever and ChrisO. That would be the entire thread of comments that was initiated by [20] and would definitely include [21], [22] and [23]. I am also asking that oversight be used to permanently delete the edits, as I consider my nationality to be a matter of personal privacy. Further to that, I am requesting that you address BalkanFever's and ChrisO's incivility ( [24], [25]). Editors who do not support their POV have been blocked or banned for much less; allowing them to insult people with impunity is beginning to give the impression of two weights and two measures in conduct policy enforcement. Finally, I am now formally accusing ChrisO of attempted outing, in light of his most recent posting of off-wiki stuff in an attempt to speculate on my real-life identity and ethnicity. Please advise as to what further steps should be taken. -- Radjenef ( talk) 16:01, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

I read that long ago. My favourite part is this : Policy does not prohibit users, including both registered and anonymous users, from removing comments from their own talk pages, although archiving is preferred... Repeatedly restoring warnings does nothing but antagonize users, and can encourage further disruption; removal of template warnings is rarely an urgent or important matter, and it is often best to simply let the matter rest if other disruption stops. 173.79.58.33 ( talk) 18:31, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

User:ChildofMidnight has started a thread, which I believe is nothing but him looking for an arguement with anyone and everyone. I boldly closed it and archived it (with the archive top and bottom templates) and was reverted by CoM. Would you mind taking a look at the thread and see if it needs to be closed. If any admin closes it, CoM is less likely to revert. If you wish not to get in the middle of this mess, I will completely understand. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 02:48, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
I disagree with your decision to delete the article on Crabcore as it was somewhat informative and provided good examples. Its stub-like articles like these that help people learn about the new emerging trends in music and the media. I remember this same thing happened back with Hollywood Undead, mods deleted their page claiming that they were not a real band even though they had an EP out and stated one of the reasons why as being "joke band in a joke genre". I think it would be unwise to make a similar mistake, please reconsider un-deleting the crabcore article.

Just a note to say I'm suspicious that the IP you blocked earlier is possibly an IP sock of User:ColScott, of whom I ran afoul because of repeated sock activities. I'm mostly basing that on what is essentially stalking of my contributions to revert and add the reference to my vision problem (which is misrepresented in the edit summary).

Sorry to bother you, but you're the first name I recognised on the OTRS lists and I'm unfamiliar with The Ways Of OTRS.
There's a book cover: File:LeapIntoLegend.JPG. It's in use on the artist's page, has been used on the author's page (then removed, the image deleted, now the article AfDed) and would be useful on the article for the book subject Bluebird K7, as there's seemingly nothing else available that isn't copyrighted. The image page seems to claim both OTRS permission by the artist for the artist's page (alone?) whilst retaining copyright, yet it's also tagged (correctly?) as being GFDL and CC-by-sa.
This puzzles me. If it's CC-by-sa, then it's free for use on any article, can't be restricted to one article, and why would there need to be an OTRS ticket at all? Is it really licensed under CC-by-sa?
Can you please either clarify this, or point to where I ought to be looking. Thanks. Andy Dingley ( talk) 22:50, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

User:Radjenef is making unilateral edits to proposal text without discussing them first ( [33] [34] [35]), even though we already entered the RfC phase. I reverted them with explanatory comments ( [36] [37] [38]). Could you please take a look at this and clarify whether such unilateral edits are allowed at this point?
It was not clear to me what is the status of proposals at this point. If reverting was the wrong thing to do, I apologize and I will accept any sanctions you deem appropriate. -- Grnch ( talk) 02:28, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
I've posted an article yesterday about Paul Roche The man died in 2007 and was a very important Poet and writer, translated classic Greek tragedies that had never been before. Not to mention that he was part of one of the most important art group in England in the 20th century. He's a published author and still after his death has lot of followers and fans. Yesterday I tried to replace an article and it is just unfair that it was deleted. Paul Roche (the writer poet) is mentioned as a reference in several articles on Wikipedia but the results of that research is Paul Roche, young sportsman from Ireland with a text as small as his success and importance in the world.
This isn't great and makes the content on several articles irrelevant( Like the one about Duncan Grant). Also it is morally important to bring up the most important information first in an encyclopedia. If my cat was called Barrack Obama and had killed 50 mice I wonder if it would be great to have "Barrack hussein Obama president of the United States of America since 2009" as research keywords because my puss would be taking the space. Well it's a about the same thing Between Paul Roche, an amazing Poet, an acclaimed published writer who wrote a movie script "Oedipus the King" where Orson Welles played and an unknown young man from deep deep Ireland who won a few competition at an obscure sport in his local villages. I don't think the one that comes up first should be the sportsman. Also the content of his article is very poor like his career that still really hasn't taken off. I think Wikipedia should be culture orientated and not become a blogging platform for anyone who fancy's himself as part of an encyclopedia. Even if I might post this article in several blogs :)
Also, as an answer to your comment I wanted to say that the author of this article gave me full rights to publish her text. She actually wrote it for the telegraph not the opposite. She's a writer herself. There's no right violation and I can prove it.
My questions are. How do I make sure that this article won't be deleted after 5 minutes again and could we ask the sportsman to add "Paul Roche Hurling player" ? since his tiny career in hurling is not very important compared to the other Paul Roche's achievements over 91 years and that the nice article I'm trying to post might be important for lot of students in literature and classics. Also everytime someone will mention the important Paul Roche (people are unlikely to write in an article Paul Donald Roche (poet)) on Wikipedia he will find that unimportant person instead. It will be a bad thing for culture I think. I won't let go about this one, it just doesn't make any sense.
We know how to use range blocks but there is no problem at all. We apreciate a lot your help against vandalism in greek wikipedia.-- MARKELLOS Leave me a message

I was just posting as TruthPrevailsAgain and you blocked me and I don't understand why. My edits weren't vandalism at all, they were made in good faith. For example: The BOOMj article should say it targets Boomers and Jonesers. The references that were there clearly show that it shoulod include Jonesers. The 'about us' section of their website specifically says they target Boomers and Jonesers. The GenY page should read Boomers and Jonesers, as many artilces on this topic indicate. Why did you think I was vandalising? And why did you immediately block me 20 seconds after warning me? I follow this topic, and saw that another editor was blocked yesterday, and I'd like to help make these pages accurate. Would you please lift this block? Thank you.
