Why was Parralox removed? We have articles and been featured on Perez Hilton's website, Popjustice.com, Electroqueer UK, Electronically Yours UK, signed to German Label Conzoom, have 4 official releases with another 6 planned over the next 6 months. We have toured internationally! Our music has been featured in several episodes of the "Life After Lisa" webseries based in Baltimore, USA. Our Electricity CD was #1 best seller in UK MSN Charts in September 2008. The articles were all cited to the best of my ability, yet some one considered this vandalism of wikipedia and the page was removed! There are other bands with far less credentials on Wikipedia, yet they still remain. Is this some sort of prejudice against electronic music, or because I'm Jewish? Please explain. I have been accused of Vandalising wikipedia - I find this to be a very extreme accusation! www.myspace.com/parralox www.parralox.de

My thanks to you for helping to save this redirect from the onslaught of deletions by ascertaining its' notability. I believe at the time, the Apostles of the stars were a section and while the members were listed in bold, my efforts to get them more specific sub-headings for each of the characters for more easier redirecting was denied. Thanks for updating it, it's nice to come back and see that a more organized sense has prevailed at the Black Cat character list and that notable characters have received mention. It is unfortunate that in some cases parentheses must be used, but when a person or character does not have a surname then there's no alternative but to use them to disambiguate, yes?

Re from your comment here:
What constitutes vandalism (i.e. the fact that he removed the tags and removed the redirect multiple times not constitutive of vandalism)? I stopped watching the pages so he probably already changed the articles to his liking (i.e. made 2 articles that are the same and removed all the needed tags which is incorrect). Furthermore he clearly is using multiple accounts but he is doing so not because he got banned so I am not sure if it deemed as reportable. Anyway if there is no where else to report the incident then so be it, I just wont be spending any more time worrying over the article and I thought my best bet was to get administrative attention to it.

...about 202.47.69.212. I see that he is making abusive behaviour on our talk pages here, but really, when he puts that unsourced material into Kidzania Jakarta about their security bracelets, I wouldn't think this as abusive behaviour.

I ended up blocking them before you posted your last comment... I think that, it's not just about copyvios (the warnings were blanked even though they made one more edit afterwards), but this seemed like another educational institution trying to promote themselves yet again on WP; it also reflects in the name (i.e. PR of LPU). -- Menti fisto 09:27, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Continuous vandal attacks are subject to block. How about someone who contributes little but a lot of it is vandalism? Is doing it once a week subject to immunity? Yet others are blocked indefinitely for less serious offences if you watch WP:ANI. This is very strange. The vandalism policy should be clarified.
Perhaps a non-sense edit would result in no warning but a short block of maybe 12 hours or 24 at the most. Warnings take a lot of manpower. That's why al-Qaeda may win. One shoe bomber and that results in thousands of guards all checking shoes on millions of people.

Hi Stephen. You seem to have recently deleted an article on the artist Hyperpotamus. Would it be possible for you to undelete it?

Hello-
I saw that my post was very quickly deleted while I was adding additional references and adding the hangon to the page. This is a commonly used slang term and description in the automotive modification world (you will see that my examples are directly from that area, in which I currently work).
Please allow me to complete the posting by putting it back up for 30 minutes. If at that time your criteria has not been met then you are welcome to take it back down without my protest.

I was just investigating this article which you deleted. According to the Adolfo Ruiz Cortines article, he was a governor of Veracruz, Mexico (i.e. a State Governor). Thus he would seem to be sufficiently notable to sustain an article. I fully agree that the article needed wikifying and referencing, but I don't think it should have been deleted simply because its creator is now indeffed for vandalism. Would you consider restoring the article and tagging it with the necessary tags, and maybe notifying WP:MX so that their members can attend to the issues?

Thanks for the advice about the above template.
Since you have been so helpful, I would appreciate your opinion or advice about a couple of article issues that are in front of me.
One involves a branch of my One Potato, Two Potato project. Producer/actor, Sam Weston's link leads to a redirect to an article about Anthony Spinelli. I inserted the redirect after I discovered that the two are the same person. It is unclear to me at this point when and for what reasons he used either pseudonym. It seems that Spinelli is the more used, as he has two children with that surname. It appears that at some point after his early work in One Potato, Two Potato, he found success in the adult film industry, as a director and producer. In fact, it seems that he is somewhat 'legendary' in those circles.
My question is two-fold. First, I would think that it is better to broaden the scope of his article to include more of his career, leaving the 'pornographic' aspects as a significant portion of it. (i.e. 'Early Work' & 'Success in the Adult Genre'). Secondly, unless it is a matter of style, I am inclined to prefer that the reference to the genre of work be 'Adult' rather than 'Pornographic'.
Next, I wonder about the inclusion of his filmography, and the Wiki standards for filmography inclusions. It seems a little redundant to include it when it is sourced to imdb. From what I have seen, there doesn't seem to be a clear consensus, with some prominent actors not having any filmography, and others with selective or complete listings.
And finally, on a completely different note, I am interested in creating a new article about an author. I have already edited an article, Pop Chalee, basically cleaning up the third reference, and creating a red link for Sally Eauclaire. Sally is the author of several books about photography. Her work on these books can be considered to be an important contribution to the acceptance of photography as fine art in the 1970's & 80's. From that, I would expect that she would be considered 'notable'. (or at least there would be a good argument in favor). I know Sally from our days as newspaper editors in the 70's, but have not been in contact for over 25 years. Therefore, I am not really sure how to proceed, other than to create a basic article around her publications, one of which probably deserves an article of its own.
Again, thank you very much. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Yunchie ( talk) 16:03, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
I'd appreciate your opinion. I've expanded the article about Michael Shane. All of the information is based on, and basically re-written from his obituary, which I have referenced. I am working on getting The New Yorker reference, which might add some facts, but I am wondering what the best tactic is to reference what I have. At its most basic level, I figured that the obituary provides a reference to the date of death, so that is where I placed it. However, the information that I gleaned from it seems to border on 'original research' without being specifically referenced. Perhaps I just don't understand yet, the concept of writing/editing in an encyclopedic manner? For example, if I were to add details from another source, how would that information be referenced if it is woven into the article? Yunchie ( talk) 15:23, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
First of all, I speedy tag a lot of articles, by odds of probability, some are going to be rejected. But I see a number of problems with the A7 criteria/process, which unfortunately, never see the light of day due to the fact that I'm not an admin.
I will try to read articles more closely to find any verifiable claims of notability, but I think the powers that be need to seriously look at creating a more coherent process to quickly decide what gets through the door and what doesn't belong. - Drdisque ( talk) 01:06, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

I see that he is making abusive behaviour on our talk pages here, but really, when he puts that unsourced material into Kidzania Jakarta about their security bracelets, I wouldn't think this as abusive behaviour. This is not WP:VANDALISM as I speak, but more of an unsourced material only. Please talk with the one that reverted his edits. Regards,-- BoeingRuleOfThe9th-700 ( talk) 11:35, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
Well, what about the Kidzania Jakarta edit? The one reverting it considered it as vandalism, however, as I have told him about the IP's innocence, it was just a simple mistake, rather than vandalizing the page.-- BoeingRuleOfThe9th-700 ( talk) 13:12, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
Yes, I know that. And according to the concern, the absence of any reference makes it as the only reason of why it had to be reverted. It's not vandalism, as you said.-- BoeingRuleOfThe9th-700 ( talk) 15:08, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
Closed! Case is resolved!-- BoeingRuleOfThe9th-700 ( talk) 13:47, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
I ended up blocking them before you posted your last comment... I think that, it's not just about copyvios (the warnings were blanked even though they made one more edit afterwards), but this seemed like another educational institution trying to promote themselves yet again on WP; it also reflects in the name (i.e. PR of LPU). -- Menti fisto 09:27, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

For beating me on finishing that Kidzania Jakarta edit case BoeingRuleOfThe9th-700 ( talk) 15:24, 7 September 2009 (UTC) |
Continuous vandal attacks are subject to block. How about someone who contributes little but a lot of it is vandalism? Is doing it once a week subject to immunity? Yet others are blocked indefinitely for less serious offences if you watch WP:ANI. This is very strange. The vandalism policy should be clarified.
Perhaps a non-sense edit would result in no warning but a short block of maybe 12 hours or 24 at the most. Warnings take a lot of manpower. That's why al-Qaeda may win. One shoe bomber and that results in thousands of guards all checking shoes on millions of people.
Any policy ideas or changes? I saw your comment on AIV which prompted this message. Finland 203 ( talk) 16:47, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi, StephenBuxton. I really need an alternative account right now. How can I assume administrators that I'm using the alternative account for proper use only?-- BoeingRuleOfThe9th-700 ( talk) 06:08, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks, I just created one, and I have applied the rules to this issue. However, I'm yet to be clear about this. If I login to the alternate account, and edited Wikipedia without any purposes for vandalism with that user, will this also mean that I'm a sockpuppet?-- BoeingRuleOfThe9th-700 ( talk) 05:22, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Hi Stephen. You seem to have recently deleted an article on the artist Hyperpotamus. Would it be possible for you to undelete it? He is a Madrid-based artist, he is brilliant, I have bought his CD (which I now, like many, rarely do), and we have written about him in an alternative newsweekly I contribute to. I really think he belongs here.
Cheers, Tiffany
p.s. I could add source material if that would be helpful.

Indeed it is. Sometimes, an anon editor may edit Wikipedia with an IP address, but visually, their edits are nothing but insipid and blatant comments of someone or something. This happens in educational institutions and some large companies.-- 7107delicious ( talk) 10:53, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

Hello-
I saw that my post was very quickly deleted while I was adding additional references and adding the hangon to the page. This is a commonly used slang term and description in the automotive modification world (you will see that my examples are directly from that area, in which I currently work).
Please allow me to complete the posting by putting it back up for 30 minutes. If at that time your criteria has not been met then you are welcome to take it back down without my protest.
Thanks, Gabe
Hey, how's it going? Doin' fine here at Wiki, fighting vandalism? Well, it was just a matter of time that I asked you about my rollback feature on Twinkle. Will this feature be revoked from a user if even a single rollback is improper?---- Boeing7107isdelicious| Sprich mit meine Piloten 10:01, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
Back to the topic. The notices state that if this rollback was done in error, I apologize. Sometimes, I had to rollback contents that are originally researched.---- Boeing7107isdelicious| Sprich mit meine Piloten 13:55, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
Where should I answer your questions? Here, or on my talk page?
On another note, responding to your quiz will take two days. My laptop will not recieve internet connections momentarily, which will disrupt my WikiWork. Schones,---- Boeing7107isdelicious| SPRiCh miT meineN PiloteN 10:31, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

I was just investigating this article which you deleted. According to the Adolfo Ruiz Cortines article, he was a governor of Veracruz, Mexico (i.e. a State Governor). Thus he would seem to be sufficiently notable to sustain an article. I fully agree that the article needed wikifying and referencing, but I don't think it should have been deleted simply because its creator is now indeffed for vandalism. Would you consider restoring the article and tagging it with the necessary tags, and maybe notifying WP:MX so that their members can attend to the issues?

As per User:7107delicious comments on his own talk page i have given him a final warning for personal attacks. I will apologize to you as i can see how hard you are working to ensure he turns out to be a good editor. I will no longer respond to this user and as such do not want anything more to do with them. I will let you get back to trying to help him. Zoo Pro 04:01, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
Since you left me a quiz on the mentor's page, I think it's about time that the mentor gets "mentored", by asking you a simple question:
An editor's edit count suggested that he/she is making edits on user talks completely unrelated to Wikipedia. What do you do?

Thanks for the advice about the above template.
Since you have been so helpful, I would appreciate your opinion or advice about a couple of article issues that are in front of me.
One involves a branch of my One Potato, Two Potato project. Producer/actor, Sam Weston's link leads to a redirect to an article about Anthony Spinelli. I inserted the redirect after I discovered that the two are the same person. It is unclear to me at this point when and for what reasons he used either pseudonym. It seems that Spinelli is the more used, as he has two children with that surname. It appears that at some point after his early work in One Potato, Two Potato, he found success in the adult film industry, as a director and producer. In fact, it seems that he is somewhat 'legendary' in those circles.
My question is two-fold. First, I would think that it is better to broaden the scope of his article to include more of his career, leaving the 'pornographic' aspects as a significant portion of it. (i.e. 'Early Work' & 'Success in the Adult Genre'). Secondly, unless it is a matter of style, I am inclined to prefer that the reference to the genre of work be 'Adult' rather than 'Pornographic'.
Next, I wonder about the inclusion of his filmography, and the Wiki standards for filmography inclusions. It seems a little redundant to include it when it is sourced to imdb. From what I have seen, there doesn't seem to be a clear consensus, with some prominent actors not having any filmography, and others with selective or complete listings.
And finally, on a completely different note, I am interested in creating a new article about an author. I have already edited an article, Pop Chalee, basically cleaning up the third reference, and creating a red link for Sally Eauclaire. Sally is the author of several books about photography. Her work on these books can be considered to be an important contribution to the acceptance of photography as fine art in the 1970's & 80's. From that, I would expect that she would be considered 'notable'. (or at least there would be a good argument in favor). I know Sally from our days as newspaper editors in the 70's, but have not been in contact for over 25 years. Therefore, I am not really sure how to proceed, other than to create a basic article around her publications, one of which probably deserves an article of its own.
Again, thank you very much. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Yunchie ( talk) 16:03, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
I'd appreciate your opinion. I've expanded the article about Michael Shane. All of the information is based on, and basically re-written from his obituary, which I have referenced. I am working on getting The New Yorker reference, which might add some facts, but I am wondering what the best tactic is to reference what I have. At its most basic level, I figured that the obituary provides a reference to the date of death, so that is where I placed it. However, the information that I gleaned from it seems to border on 'original research' without being specifically referenced. Perhaps I just don't understand yet, the concept of writing/editing in an encyclopedic manner? For example, if I were to add details from another source, how would that information be referenced if it is woven into the article? Yunchie ( talk) 15:23, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
First of all, I speedy tag a lot of articles, by odds of probability, some are going to be rejected. But I see a number of problems with the A7 criteria/process, which unfortunately, never see the light of day due to the fact that I'm not an admin.
I will try to read articles more closely to find any verifiable claims of notability, but I think the powers that be need to seriously look at creating a more coherent process to quickly decide what gets through the door and what doesn't belong. - Drdisque ( talk) 01:06, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
Would you please be so kind as to provide me with a copy of the Tongal article that you deleted earlier. I believe that it can be rewritten to adhere to the encyclopedia qualifications. Thank you for your time.
