I stumbled across this thread from the founder of Adland and there need to have an admin look at this. If this is a dox some scrubbing of the dox from Wikipedia is going to be needed. GamerPro64 02:50, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
i know you probably have no experience with this. But there are two articles that i'm extremely interested. 1) Green Lantern articles and all side kicks of Batman such as Tim Drake, Jason Todd and Dick Grayson. I wanted to also make an exemplary articles out of these to see if WP:COMICS can recover and also make more quality content.
Again, i know you probably have no experience in these type of articles, and i myself have tried quite a lot to improve them, and end up with a headache. But i most likely just need someone to work with in order to get them working. I don't even read comics, but i listen to the stories about them. Just need the right resources, and maybe someone to help me. Lucia Black ( talk) 05:14, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
( diff) Very curious. Do you disagree that WP is not a repo of release dates? That release date lists are not in our scope or something we do consistent or well? That a change (at any pace) to correct it would at least be going in the right direction? What kind of watchlist reverts do you have in mind? Because I watch a fair amount of pages and the only infobox confusion I regularly see is over release dates, which this proposal directly addresses. What parts of this proposal are more counter-intuitive than our current guideline? czar 22:30, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Just so you know, Keith has sung lead on Breaking Benjamin's cover of "Who Wants To Live Forever" and Aaron has sung lead on the song "Believe" and their cover of "Ænema" (live performances only, of course, the studio versions are Ben). I don't know what Wikipedia's policy is on cover songs and live performances, but we may be dealing with that as people discover they're doing it. :P

23:51, 11 January 2016 (UTC)Thanks. It's nice to know my work's appreciated. After finishing up on Xenoblade Chronicles, I thought it might be a neat idea to do similar work to the other two Wii RPGs that formed part of Operation Rainfall's campaign, with possible extension via The Last Story of doing similar work on Lost Odyssey (I've already got the sources for both). At the moment, I have decided not to elect any more GAs after Last Story until the FA on Persona (series) is completed. I am confident that it will pass muster, but I also don't want to overload myself like when Final Fantasy Type-0 was at FAC. As you might have noticed, I have a habit of taking on repair/expansion projects that grow exponentially as I work on them, despite initial assessments on my end. How are things on your end? -- ProtoDrake ( talk) 18:08, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
Hello. Could you also protect PlayStation VR for a short time. We have a persistent anon IP acting disruptively. — TPX 14:03, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
I don't disagree with your decision to do nothing, I just wonder why you chose to mark it as "declined." I (a non-admin) had already done what I considered to be properly dealing with the situation: both editors were warned, they both quit warring, and one seemed to drop the matter at issue altogether. I'd think that might be "Warned" because both received warnings, possibly "Stale" because the war has ceased, "Not blocked" because nobody was blocked. I wouldn't have personally gone with "No violation" because although 3RR wasn't technically violated, you don't have to revert 4 times to be edit warring, as these editors clearly were. The only reason I didn't perform non-admin closure here is because I've been strongly discouraged from doing so, especially because some admins have informed me that they a) have access to reports that I don't, and b) might choose a different course of action than I did. When I said "I think we're done here," that was basically me stating that I thought the matter needed to be simply closed.
"Declined" is an insult to the editors who have handled the situation already. I'm surprised that you made no reference to the comments that were placed here. Did you not find our work helpful? Finally, I didn't find "Declined" to be very useful. As far as I'm aware, I'm the only person who made any attempts to edit the talk page, and I'm not even really involved in the dispute (other than to arrive after the fact and do some preliminary triage, sorting a malformed report into more manageable form.) You can't just send people to the talk page and close the report when it's not clear that either edit warrior has any intention of going there. J♯m ( talk | contribs) 21:58, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Wants references I give them then cant read/understand what it says. Now I bet if I delete things not referenced in articles (AS REQUIRED) he will be undoing that and harassing me again.
"Magic can be played by two or more players in various formats, the most common of which uses a deck of 60+ cards, either in person with printed cards or using a deck of virtual cards through the Internet-based Magic: The Gathering Online, on a smartphone or tablet, or other programs.
Each game represents a battle between wizards known as "planeswalkers", who employ spells, artifacts, and creatures depicted on individual Magic cards to defeat their opponents. Although the original concept of the game drew heavily from the motifs of traditional fantasy role-playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons, the gameplay of Magic bears little similarity to pencil-and-paper adventure games, while having substantially more cards and more complex rules than many other card games.
An organized tournament system and a community of professional Magic players has developed, as has a secondary market for Magic cards. Magic cards can be valuable due to their rarity and utility in gameplay. Often the prices of a single card can be anywhere from a few cents to a few hundred dollars, and in some instances thousands of dollars."

Hey Serge,
I wanted to say I'm sorry I got you dragged into the mess that is Talk: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Hopefully the previous IP editor will understand that their rants do not work. -- Soetermans. T / C 14:33, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
I can see you're aggravated about the article, but can you please fix the grammar mistake I fixed and you reintroduced? Thanks. — Torchiest talk edits 03:12, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
Could you swing by Magic: The Gathering and decide whether the recent addition CombatWombat and Leitmotiv are warring over should stay until they discuss it on talk? An IP added it, along with other biased edits. Leitmotiv reverted the addition, Combat Wombat added it back. I then partially undid it, removing most of the POV pushing and leaving the single sourcable part. Leitmotiv and CombatWombat have since reverted each other two more times and are at 3RR limit. Both have 3RR warnings on talk page now (I warned CombatWombat, and CombatWombat warned Leitmotiv). Since I've issued a warning, and previously undid part of the edit, I feel I count as involved currently. -- ferret ( talk) 00:45, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi Serge. You were right. It was wrong. But please understand my post was out of frustration. There is a history between him and me. And it's not good. I'm really fed up that he removes all of my sources on almost every article I work on just because I added the sources. I'm fed up. And I'm fed up with him treating me like he's better than me. I'm sorry but I am just fed up. Anyway any guidance from you would be appreciated. Please delete the post I left him that you warned me about. Caden cool 05:28, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
