Thank you for your constructive edit to the List of Dams. It's a shame that it was interpreted as as "Test Edit" by an over-zealous senior editor who didn't bother to do basic research. I have readded your minimalist, but correct, work. I hope that that edit wasnt directly associated with you being BLOCKED, but I am sure that your status will be reprised.

If that edit violates WP:DOX, then almost every single instance of {{ Shared IP edu}} violates it as well. The intent wasn't to harass anyone or out anyone's identity, but to make a comment based on the WHOIS (FIRN = Florida Information Resource Network). I just didn't feel like broadcasting to the likes of some of the administrators that it was a school so they'd block it for six years over minor vandalism, and tagging it the usual way with {{ Shared IP edu}} or {{ Shared IP gov}} actually would have been more invasive.

Hello, I made the template for Tony Hillerman, and tested it by using Preview in my sandbox. I used the Sue Grafton template as my model.

Hello, just curious why you blocked this user? Only one of the edits given at ANI actually involved adding unsourced content. Were the other edits vandalism in some sense, whether hoaxing by adding stuff not in a cited source, or hoaxing by presenting fake sources, or something else? I didn't see a point in checking the content when you'd already done the block (I'd need to ask you anyway), so why try to determine your reasons when I could get your line of thought by asking you. I'm tempted to grant the unblock request, but I'm confused about the situation: everyone involved seems to be really solidly convinced that this user's been quite disruptive, so I'm guessing that I've missed something.

Please read page 139 to 144 of the source I sent you. This is so interesting how my Wikipedia edits with User:W Nowicki made such an impact on this paper. Although it seems unfair of the author to alleged we tried to hide anything. I’m trying to find reliable sources to substantiate this family legend about Keanolani, the illegitimate daughter of Kamehameha V and Abigail Maheha. The quote from Cooke comparing Abigail Maheha to a dog and a sow especially sickens me. It is sad the more I dig into the lives of this family descended from Kuini Liliha. It seems Governess Liliha’s family was cursed from the get go. Her most famous husband Boki died at sea. She was an unsuccessful rival against Kaʻahumanu and Kīnaʻu and died with no political power. All three of her daughters led tragic lives either marred by unlucky marriages or sexual misconducts (according to Victorian sensibility that is) and her two sons were relatively obscure politicians during the monarchy.

Would you be interested in creating a start article on Kalakaua's 1874-75 visit to the United States? I am working on Leleiohoku's article right now who served as Kalakaua's regent during his absence from Hawaii and thought it would be a good joint DYK nomination for November 17 (anniversary of the start the trip). Do you think there would be any importance in separating it from Reciprocity Treaty of 1875 and talking about the quirky details of his trip including his meeting with P. T. Barnum?

Hello, Maile66. You recently helped me by adding an image of Mark McKinnon to his article, so I wanted to see if you'd be willing to assist with another article, too. The Eater article was recently moved into the main space, so I drafted a new summary of article for Vox Media (the site's parent company) here. Another editor seemed fine with the proposed wording, but the section still has not been updated. Would you be able to review the proposed text, which is essentially a sourced version of the Eater introduction, and copy over the markup appropriately if the wording looks good? Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason ( talk) 19:35, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
Can you help me with these moves? I wonder if there is an easier way to do this like a desk for non-admins to propose these non-controversial blacklist moves. I peruse Category:Hawaii geography stubs to find these problematic titles.

You should listen to this if you get the chance, http://www.wbur.org/endlessthread/2018/08/10/david-kalakaua . I wonder how much objective truth there is to the oppositional narrative (the predominant one in English language source material) created by his opponent. When writing these articles, I find it hard to balance the imperialist narrative from the 1800s and the modern indigenous scholarship which in general worships the Hawaiian monarchs and gloss over their faults or the complicated politics behind the kingdom.

Do you know if any women served in the Hawaii territorial legislature between Rosalie Keliʻinoi in 1925 and Elsie Hart Wilcox in 1932?

Have you read much about or by Clarice Bromley Taylor (1896-1963)? [7] She was a columnist for the Honolulu Star-Bulletin and wrote the weekly column “Tales About Hawaii” from the late 1940s to the early 1960s. I’ve cataloguing a lot to these columnists with clippings such as Emma Ahuena Taylor and her mother Mary Fayerweather Montano since they give a publish version of the oral traditions not mentioned in the written text. Taylor was not connected to the events of the monarchy like these women but seems to have collected stories from old kamaanina families. I slightly intimidate by Taylor’s enormous amount of work. Wish there was someone who had already done a full catalogue of her work. KAVEBEAR ( talk) 06:05, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Re: Talk:Elvis Presley on film and television. Thanks for trying to help, but I still don’t get it. I’m sure the “non-musical” definition is sound (ie solid), and was determined 60 or 70 years ago. So why is a film with Elvis (of all people!) singing on-screen, not classed as a musical? I’m sure I’ve seen some “musicals” (in the 2000’s) with only 1 or 2 songs (... but I can’t recall them).

Regarding this, sorry for the mix-up. I had noticed new activity from the sock farm that had been reverted by others, but the edit summaries had not used the usual pending changes syntax, so I failed to notice that protection is still in place--but I should have checked that directly, so that's egg on my face. I'll attend to the proxies in appropriate spaces for now and then renew the page protection discussion if (or, realistically, when) the socks renew their activity following expiration of the current protection. Candidly, I think there's an argument to be made for changing the protection to indefinite before it expires, since the disruption has been carried out like clockwork for ages and the sockmaster is so dogged about it that they are trying to leverage the content in even while protection is in place--but that said, I appreciate that this is an atypical way for RPP requests to be processed, so I'll adopt the standard wait and see approach. Anyway, I appreciate your quick response and advice. Snow let's rap 04:06, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Please read page 139 to 144 of the source I sent you. This is so interesting how my Wikipedia edits with User:W Nowicki made such an impact on this paper. Although it seems unfair of the author to alleged we tried to hide anything. I’m trying to find reliable sources to substantiate this family legend about Keanolani, the illegitimate daughter of Kamehameha V and Abigail Maheha. The quote from Cooke comparing Abigail Maheha to a dog and a sow especially sickens me. It is sad the more I dig into the lives of this family descended from Kuini Liliha. It seems Governess Liliha’s family was cursed from the get go. Her most famous husband Boki died at sea. She was an unsuccessful rival against Kaʻahumanu and Kīnaʻu and died with no political power. All three of her daughters led tragic lives either marred by unlucky marriages or sexual misconducts (according to Victorian sensibility that is) and her two sons were relatively obscure politicians during the monarchy.

Would you be interested in creating a start article on Kalakaua's 1874-75 visit to the United States? I am working on Leleiohoku's article right now who served as Kalakaua's regent during his absence from Hawaii and thought it would be a good joint DYK nomination for November 17 (anniversary of the start the trip). Do you think there would be any importance in separating it from Reciprocity Treaty of 1875 and talking about the quirky details of his trip including his meeting with P. T. Barnum?

Hello, Maile66. You recently helped me by adding an image of Mark McKinnon to his article, so I wanted to see if you'd be willing to assist with another article, too. The Eater article was recently moved into the main space, so I drafted a new summary of article for Vox Media (the site's parent company) here. Another editor seemed fine with the proposed wording, but the section still has not been updated. Would you be able to review the proposed text, which is essentially a sourced version of the Eater introduction, and copy over the markup appropriately if the wording looks good? Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason ( talk) 19:35, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
Can you help me with these moves? I wonder if there is an easier way to do this like a desk for non-admins to propose these non-controversial blacklist moves. I peruse Category:Hawaii geography stubs to find these problematic titles.
Side note, I came across a person named Alohikea who was involved in the Honolulu Courthouse riot. I wonder if he has any relation to Lizzie Alohikea.

You should listen to this if you get the chance, http://www.wbur.org/endlessthread/2018/08/10/david-kalakaua . I wonder how much objective truth there is to the oppositional narrative (the predominant one in English language source material) created by his opponent. When writing these articles, I find it hard to balance the imperialist narrative from the 1800s and the modern indigenous scholarship which in general worships the Hawaiian monarchs and gloss over their faults or the complicated politics behind the kingdom.

Do you know if any women served in the Hawaii territorial legislature between Rosalie Keliʻinoi in 1925 and Elsie Hart Wilcox in 1932? They would have to have been representatives instead of senators since Wilcox was the first female senator.

Have you read much about or by Clarice Bromley Taylor (1896-1963)? [7] She was a columnist for the Honolulu Star-Bulletin and wrote the weekly column “Tales About Hawaii” from the late 1940s to the early 1960s. I’ve cataloguing a lot to these columnists with clippings such as Emma Ahuena Taylor and her mother Mary Fayerweather Montano since they give a publish version of the oral traditions not mentioned in the written text. Taylor was not connected to the events of the monarchy like these women but seems to have collected stories from old kamaanina families. I slightly intimidate by Taylor’s enormous amount of work. Wish there was someone who had already done a full catalogue of her work. KAVEBEAR ( talk) 06:05, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Re: Talk:Elvis Presley on film and television. Thanks for trying to help, but I still don’t get it. I’m sure the “non-musical” definition is sound (ie solid), and was determined 60 or 70 years ago. So why is a film with Elvis (of all people!) singing on-screen, not classed as a musical? I’m sure I’ve seen some “musicals” (in the 2000’s) with only 1 or 2 songs (... but I can’t recall them).

Regarding this, sorry for the mix-up. I had noticed new activity from the sock farm that had been reverted by others, but the edit summaries had not used the usual pending changes syntax, so I failed to notice that protection is still in place--but I should have checked that directly, so that's egg on my face. I'll attend to the proxies in appropriate spaces for now and then renew the page protection discussion if (or, realistically, when) the socks renew their activity following expiration of the current protection. Candidly, I think there's an argument to be made for changing the protection to indefinite before it expires, since the disruption has been carried out like clockwork for ages and the sockmaster is so dogged about it that they are trying to leverage the content in even while protection is in place--but that said, I appreciate that this is an atypical way for RPP requests to be processed, so I'll adopt the standard wait and see approach. Anyway, I appreciate your quick response and advice. Snow let's rap 04:06, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
