Heya, last night I re-created my once-again delete wikipedia page ( PVDasm), and you've decided to delete it just because you though it was 'copyrighted' material, however, this is completely untrue. I am the author, create and developer of the pvdasm.reverse-engineering.net/ project, and that is the reason I created that page. PVDasm by it self is a free project, and also open sourced, so why would a page on wikipedia have any copyright problems with it in the beginning? please, undelete my page. thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shanytc ( talk • contribs) 12:55, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

It seems we have another school IP that has dropped back into persistant vandalism. Is there any chance of a longer term block being imposed? See 65.79.16.78. Richard Harvey ( talk) 19:10, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
Various admins have already blocked ScienceGolfFanatic on three different IP ranges already, but I wouldn't put it past him to go edit from a public library or a friend's house or anywhere that has Internet access. Today we have a crop of users with names similar to Tewapack, such as Təwapack, Tewepack, Tewəpack, and maybe more. Tewapack has been reporting the names to AIV and getting them blocked, but that isn't going to stop more names from being created. Because Tewepeck was determined to be a sock of ScienceGolfFanatic some months ago, it's not a great leap of faith to imagine that these names might be as well, although they have not engaged in much other SGF-like behavior, so it might be a false lead. However, it is clear that some sort of block stronger than a username block is needed here, so I ask you to handle the situation with whatever action you feel is best. -- Soap Talk/ Contributions 01:05, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi J.delanoy,
I'm looking to retrieve a page I created, "Incredible Two Man Band". It was speedily deleted for A7. I intend to get verifiable sources, but just didn't get them in time. I would like to retrieve the page to keep the formatting intact as well as the content. I'm a beginner Wikipedian, and appreciate your patience!
Thanks in advance,

I was given a warning for vandaling an article I never even edited, let alone visited prior to this.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Rollinman
There shows all I did, which most of them were fixing up graphic problems or talk pages. The article in question was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramblin%27_Wreck
The IP in question was 99.140.199.130, which I don't remember ever using. Rollinman ( talk) 22:53, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
I try to help the community by stopping someone who frequently uses the wrong warning template to other users and you say that's laughable and have the nerve to call me an idiot? This is an administrator? I'm speechless tommy talk 23:00, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
I like J. Delanoy because he answers requests for CheckUser quickly. He also rapidly blocks micreant anons. But, nonetheless, I have a question: Why is it appropriate for any anonymous editor to give out warnings? If anons feel so strongly about the Wikipedia project, why don’t they register and show a level of commitment to the project? As it is, anons simply reboot their modems, get new IP addresses, and start vandalizing anew. I’m not speaking about any particular anon involved in this discussion, specifically. It’s just that, at a more general level, the application of warning templates to a user’s talk page is such a powerful tool, resulting in blocks as it so often does, why should such power be vested in persons who won’t even register? A registered user cannot simply reboot his modem and get a new identity (i.e., a new IP). A registered user is held to account when he issues warning templates incorrectly. The anonymous editor issuing them incorrectly can skirt any responsiblity by simply rebooting his modem. So, why are anonymous editors permitted to apply warnings at all? Thanks! — SpikeToronto ( talk) 00:04, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Boy, now I am confused. At the beginning your answer made me think, “Ah, good CheckUser has some value and they are able to tell when people are sock puppetting and it’s worth reporting.” But, then J., your last bit about how easy it is for even a registered user to get ’round the failsafes and still vandalize makes me wonder why we should bother. <sigh> Oh, by the way, how did you figure out how many of your edits were vandalism reverts? Is there some special counter somewhere? Just curious … (Sorry to digress so far from your initial issue with Tommy; I just find your talk page instructive …) — SpikeToronto ( talk) 05:24, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. Seems I made somebody angry :-) I semi'd it yesterday and the ips (ATT range) switched to undoing a bunch of my edits. Seems my 2 week block of User:KgKris started it. That user even stated that his "friends" were helping in regards an edit war on talk:Human. Seems an indef is in order, but an addit. range block on ATT mightn't be too popular. Any suggestions? Vsmith ( talk) 00:48, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Would it be possible to see if two IPs are one in the same? 32.177.111.155 was editing vandalizing a page and after several warnings to that IP, 209.183.55.115 pops up and templates me. The first is out of LA and the second is out of Concord, CA....right next to each other. Obviously a user using either a cell or another computer. Would it be possible to checkuser these accounts and if they are the same block them? Thanks. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 02:30, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Hello J.delanoy, you might want to add this :-) (whole point diverted) Regards ≈ Commit charge
Hi there. Some months ago (21 July 2009) you deleted my artist page 'Akahum', the reason was that there was no reliable, third party sources. I realised after scrutinising my page there was little in the way of 'reliable third party sources' and did not pursue the action. However, I now have a review of Akahum from The BBC News. Please can you undelete my Akahum page so I can apply this and other reliable third party sources I now have.

..a new idea for a Wikipedian event. Sometimes, the encyclopedia itself needs a break. A Wikibreak is only necessary whenever a user is feeling Wikistressed, or any other reasons for that matter. In this event, Wikipedia pages cannot be edited by even the largest of the ArbComs, not even Jimbo. Well, to prevent any administator incident and excessive vandalism that continues to occur every single day. Whaddaya think?-- 7107delicious ( talk) 14:17, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I see you were also around since 2006, so I'm just wondering... This request isn't very urgent, and I'm not sure if this isn't allowed, but do you remember the old WP:LTA articles on Willy on Wheels and MilkMan, and can you provide me a copy of each via e-mail? I understand WP:DENY, but if you can just e-mail me the article copies without userfying, no trolls are fed, and I'm happy. It's just for my own nostalgia, you don't have to do it.

FYI, to help resolve the naming dispute, I've created REDIRECTs to Godhra train burning at "Godhra train attack" & "incident" & "massacre", with and without capitalized words, so readers trying to look up any of those titles will see the surviving article.

I think you went way too soft on blocking the above IP for what he did to Zink Dawg's page... one week is absurd. These are death threats we're talking about, not just a simple "Fuck you" or "Fag."

I'm hoping you can help me with User:Minosufge who keeps removing an AfD template from the article Damon Tajrobehkar. This user, along with what I can only assume are meatpuppets, have been inserting trivial unsourced info into this BLP for some time and I keep deleting it as unsourced. When I tried to find reliable sourceS myself it became apparent (to me at least) that that article did not meet notability criteria and I nominated it as such. Since then the AfD template has been removed at least twice and multiple new users keep reinserting the trivia. In addition, there is a duplicate article at Damon Tajrobehkar-Dana that I redirected to the target article that is up for AfD. Now that redirect has been removed. I'm going offline and won't be able to monitor the situation and it appears I'm the only person actively watchlisting these articles, so I was hoping perhaps you could take a look?

Thanks for your attention to the SPI I filed ( Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/68.244.107.246). I don't mean to question your ability to do your job, but it seems to me that the size of the subnet shouldn't matter - if it is somebody logging out to make the edit the logs should show someone using that account a short time before the edit. If the logs don't show that, it rules out my proposed explanation. If they logged out and disconnected from the net and reconnected to change their IP, there would be still be someone editing from that range shortly before the edit - it seems unlikely there would be multiple ref desk regulars editing from that range in that short time period. I know CUs don't like to give out too much information about how they do their jobs to avoid giving out information people could use to hide, but I would like to understand why no useful information could be found here. -- Tango ( talk) 23:28, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

I noticed you showed up in the edit list of the article. If you read the discussion, I'm sure you know who I am. Nevertheless I want to repeat again that I became involved after a lot of edits and reverts have been done already. And I'm not the one who re-added it again and again. I only removed some editions later which were definitely wrong statements.
This all seems to be endless. Also I don't understand why this discussion is happening at all.
Those admins who are removing the links again and again are insisting on WP:RS and want reliable sources, being fully aware that these RS rules can't be fully applied to video games for the most part and although it is very obvious that the game itself will never be popular enough again to be mentioned in any of the bigger "news-pages" or somewhere else outside the community and the community pages, which are completely ignored too.
It also seems to be fully ok to mention ports and continued work for video games on other wiki game pages, like for example
Doom_(video_game)#Clones_and_related_products,
Descent_(video_game) and many more.
It is also obviously valid to link to the UT port which only uses the content to play the game in Linux instead of stating that there is a native port now also.
What made this link different (last edit) compared to adding a statement for 227 real native port? Oldunreal serves now the community for over 9 years as a non commercial community page, I made the page 06-jun-2000, years before I got the sources by epic and made the patch. I think this makes me at least to some expert for this game also even if the patch wouldn't be made by me.
Also the stupid discussion if Epic approves my work. Of course they won't give any statement which could make them responsible in any legal way for my work, but its clear as daylight that without the sources they gave me this patch couldn't have been done. What more proof is needed for that? The additional forum statement by their senior producer is ignored also.
Of course I'm biased, it's my work as well as the contributions made by the community to create this patch but this doesn't mean it's wrong to argue that this can't be right whats happening there at the moment.
Anyway, thanks for reading all this. Maybe it leads somewhere.

My concern here is only with the process involved, given that the page was originally converted from a redirect without suitable discussion.

Hello, J.delanoy. I know I've bumped into your edits quite a few times on Wikipedia and I hope you don't mind that I WikiStalked some [many] of your edits.

Heya, last night I re-created my once-again delete wikipedia page ( PVDasm), and you've decided to delete it just because you though it was 'copyrighted' material, however, this is completely untrue. I am the author, create and developer of the pvdasm.reverse-engineering.net/ project, and that is the reason I created that page. PVDasm by it self is a free project, and also open sourced, so why would a page on wikipedia have any copyright problems with it in the beginning? please, undelete my page. thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shanytc ( talk • contribs) 12:55, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

It seems we have another school IP that has dropped back into persistant vandalism. Is there any chance of a longer term block being imposed? See 65.79.16.78. Richard Harvey ( talk) 19:10, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
Various admins have already blocked ScienceGolfFanatic on three different IP ranges already, but I wouldn't put it past him to go edit from a public library or a friend's house or anywhere that has Internet access. Today we have a crop of users with names similar to Tewapack, such as Təwapack, Tewepack, Tewəpack, and maybe more. Tewapack has been reporting the names to AIV and getting them blocked, but that isn't going to stop more names from being created. Because Tewepeck was determined to be a sock of ScienceGolfFanatic some months ago, it's not a great leap of faith to imagine that these names might be as well, although they have not engaged in much other SGF-like behavior, so it might be a false lead. However, it is clear that some sort of block stronger than a username block is needed here, so I ask you to handle the situation with whatever action you feel is best. -- Soap Talk/ Contributions 01:05, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

I was given a warning for vandaling an article I never even edited, let alone visited prior to this.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Rollinman
There shows all I did, which most of them were fixing up graphic problems or talk pages. The article in question was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramblin%27_Wreck
The IP in question was 99.140.199.130, which I don't remember ever using. Rollinman ( talk) 22:53, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
I try to help the community by stopping someone who frequently uses the wrong warning template to other users and you say that's laughable and have the nerve to call me an idiot? This is an administrator? I'm speechless tommy talk 23:00, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
I like J. Delanoy because he answers requests for CheckUser quickly. He also rapidly blocks micreant anons. But, nonetheless, I have a question: Why is it appropriate for any anonymous editor to give out warnings? If anons feel so strongly about the Wikipedia project, why don’t they register and show a level of commitment to the project? As it is, anons simply reboot their modems, get new IP addresses, and start vandalizing anew. I’m not speaking about any particular anon involved in this discussion, specifically. It’s just that, at a more general level, the application of warning templates to a user’s talk page is such a powerful tool, resulting in blocks as it so often does, why should such power be vested in persons who won’t even register? A registered user cannot simply reboot his modem and get a new identity (i.e., a new IP). A registered user is held to account when he issues warning templates incorrectly. The anonymous editor issuing them incorrectly can skirt any responsiblity by simply rebooting his modem. So, why are anonymous editors permitted to apply warnings at all? Thanks! — SpikeToronto ( talk) 00:04, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Boy, now I am confused. At the beginning your answer made me think, “Ah, good CheckUser has some value and they are able to tell when people are sock puppetting and it’s worth reporting.” But, then J., your last bit about how easy it is for even a registered user to get ’round the failsafes and still vandalize makes me wonder why we should bother. <sigh> Oh, by the way, how did you figure out how many of your edits were vandalism reverts? Is there some special counter somewhere? Just curious … (Sorry to digress so far from your initial issue with Tommy; I just find your talk page instructive …) — SpikeToronto ( talk) 05:24, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. Seems I made somebody angry :-) I semi'd it yesterday and the ips (ATT range) switched to undoing a bunch of my edits. Seems my 2 week block of User:KgKris started it. That user even stated that his "friends" were helping in regards an edit war on talk:Human. Seems an indef is in order, but an addit. range block on ATT mightn't be too popular. Any suggestions? Vsmith ( talk) 00:48, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Would it be possible to see if two IPs are one in the same? 32.177.111.155 was editing vandalizing a page and after several warnings to that IP, 209.183.55.115 pops up and templates me. The first is out of LA and the second is out of Concord, CA....right next to each other. Obviously a user using either a cell or another computer. Would it be possible to checkuser these accounts and if they are the same block them? Thanks. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 02:30, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. Some months ago (21 July 2009) you deleted my artist page 'Akahum', the reason was that there was no reliable, third party sources. I realised after scrutinising my page there was little in the way of 'reliable third party sources' and did not pursue the action. However, I now have a review of Akahum from The BBC News. Please can you undelete my Akahum page so I can apply this and other reliable third party sources I now have.

I'm hoping you can help me with User:Minosufge who keeps removing an AfD template from the article Damon Tajrobehkar. This user, along with what I can only assume are meatpuppets, have been inserting trivial unsourced info into this BLP for some time and I keep deleting it as unsourced. When I tried to find reliable sourceS myself it became apparent (to me at least) that that article did not meet notability criteria and I nominated it as such. Since then the AfD template has been removed at least twice and multiple new users keep reinserting the trivia. In addition, there is a duplicate article at Damon Tajrobehkar-Dana that I redirected to the target article that is up for AfD. Now that redirect has been removed. I'm going offline and won't be able to monitor the situation and it appears I'm the only person actively watchlisting these articles, so I was hoping perhaps you could take a look?

Thanks for your attention to the SPI I filed ( Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/68.244.107.246). I don't mean to question your ability to do your job, but it seems to me that the size of the subnet shouldn't matter - if it is somebody logging out to make the edit the logs should show someone using that account a short time before the edit. If the logs don't show that, it rules out my proposed explanation. If they logged out and disconnected from the net and reconnected to change their IP, there would be still be someone editing from that range shortly before the edit - it seems unlikely there would be multiple ref desk regulars editing from that range in that short time period. I know CUs don't like to give out too much information about how they do their jobs to avoid giving out information people could use to hide, but I would like to understand why no useful information could be found here. -- Tango ( talk) 23:28, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

I noticed you showed up in the edit list of the article. If you read the discussion, I'm sure you know who I am. Nevertheless I want to repeat again that I became involved after a lot of edits and reverts have been done already. And I'm not the one who re-added it again and again. I only removed some editions later which were definitely wrong statements.
This all seems to be endless. Also I don't understand why this discussion is happening at all.
Those admins who are removing the links again and again are insisting on WP:RS and want reliable sources, being fully aware that these RS rules can't be fully applied to video games for the most part and although it is very obvious that the game itself will never be popular enough again to be mentioned in any of the bigger "news-pages" or somewhere else outside the community and the community pages, which are completely ignored too.
It also seems to be fully ok to mention ports and continued work for video games on other wiki game pages, like for example
Doom_(video_game)#Clones_and_related_products,
Descent_(video_game) and many more.
It is also obviously valid to link to the UT port which only uses the content to play the game in Linux instead of stating that there is a native port now also.
What made this link different (last edit) compared to adding a statement for 227 real native port? Oldunreal serves now the community for over 9 years as a non commercial community page, I made the page 06-jun-2000, years before I got the sources by epic and made the patch. I think this makes me at least to some expert for this game also even if the patch wouldn't be made by me.
Also the stupid discussion if Epic approves my work. Of course they won't give any statement which could make them responsible in any legal way for my work, but its clear as daylight that without the sources they gave me this patch couldn't have been done. What more proof is needed for that? The additional forum statement by their senior producer is ignored also.
Of course I'm biased, it's my work as well as the contributions made by the community to create this patch but this doesn't mean it's wrong to argue that this can't be right whats happening there at the moment.
Anyway, thanks for reading all this. Maybe it leads somewhere.

Hi J., yes, six or seven I can't decide what presents a better scenario. And do you have any ideas for a better name than "coordinators"? Tony (talk) 02:06, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi there. Thank you for your quick blocking of this problematic user. However, 75.216.107.183's contribs indicate that it is a vandalism-only account. Also, he said "**** you wikipedia". Personally, I think a block of only 31 hours is a bit too short, don't you think? -- Addihockey ( t/ c) 04:03, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

I don't know how you put up with it. I'd virtually eStrangle some poor bonehead through teh interwebz, I know I would. Thanks for doing the admin thing! PS - >287K edits?!!?! Yer crazy... :) ... in a great way. - Sinneed 22:07, 25 October 2009 (UTC) |
Hi, I'm an administrator and bureaucrat over on cy: and would like to know if it was really you who reverted an edit tonight under this user name at 2037 ([ [4]]). The edit reverted was vandalism, of course, and I know who the IP contributor and ' J deloney' really are, i.e. Bambifan101, but need to check who's who here before I apply some blocks. Typical of the confusion for admins Our Boy likes to create! Thanks in advance, Enaidmawr ( talk) 21:47, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi there, I finally need to know something about transcluding, but I think it's not much. I want to respond to a request placed with the {{request edit}} template, and to do so properly will mean I must untransclude it. How do I go about doing that?-- otherl left 00:03, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi J.delanoy! I just recently reported Alex Ji LT-21. Can you take a look and see? Tell me what you think when you read this. Thanks! RSA 23 Sign! 02:23, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi! Just wondered if you had spotted this users activities 65.211.22.60 (School IP). Since 1 October it has become nothing more than a vandalism only account, with Short blocks and multiple warnings. Perhaps a long term Anon Block will see the offender curtailed, until the end of the school term, to save editors from constantly reverting his/her edits, sometimes offensive edits.

FYI, I declined this request but thought you'd want to know. Wknight94 talk 02:11, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Hello, J.delanoy. I know I've bumped into your edits quite a few times on Wikipedia and I hope you don't mind that I WikiStalked some [many] of your edits. I would like to ask, if you are not busy or currently preoccupied with someone else, for some of your time as my admin coach. I understand if this is not possible at the moment. Thanks for your consideration. — Mr. E. Sánchez (that's me!) What I Do / What I Say 09:04, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
User talk:J.delanoy can you unprotect your user page please because it's protected still thanks! 75.141.100.115 75.141.100.115 —Preceding undated comment added 22:34, 28 October 2009 (UTC).
So you can edit your user page without being protected. 75.141.100.115 75.141.100.115 18:55, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for your block of 69.234.138.1 just now, but I must admit I was hoping for a bit more than 31 hours for a death threat. Thanks for any reconsideration you can give to this one. Best, Jusda fax 00:55, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Sorry for the accidental rollback on Windows Movie Maker. I think I tried it at the same time as you. - xpclient Talk 15:08, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
