User talk:DpmukRETIRED
This user no longer works as an administrator or copyright violation investigator. I still edit occasionally.
You've reached the user talk page of Dpmuk. This is where you can communicate with me but per the above notice I'm pretty much retired so may take some time to reply. I am unlikely to reply to queries about my past admin or copyright work. If however you are here about an edit I made in the last few days it is likely I will reply, but probably not quickly. To see the reasons my retirement pop over to my user page. Please remember to sign your posts by adding ~~~~ after your message. This will make it much easier for me to know who I'm talking to. I manually archive this page after every 50 conversations, generally a few days after the 50th discussion appears to have finished. If your message is no longer here please check my archives.

You received this message because you closed at least one MRV discussion in the last six months. Greetings! There is an ongoing discussion at Wikipedia talk:Disambiguation#Proposal for a new rule for media adaptations and multimedia franchises, where the apparent inconsistency in results has been noted between Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A Nightmare on Elm Street (disambiguation) (deleted by unanimous agreement) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Resident Evil (disambiguation) (kept by a substantial consensus). Since you participated in one of these discussions, you may wish to contribute to our efforts to craft a useful compromise with respect to the proposal under discussion. Cheers! bd2412 T 14:48, 15 October 2013 (UTC) You participated in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A Nightmare on Elm Street (disambiguation). Join in the deletion review for your comments. --George Ho (talk) 14:51, 15 October 2013 (UTC) QuestionWhilst doing some research this afternoon, I stumbled across some postings by an editor referring to his editing on wikipedia. In particular, they were editing to support an agenda that was contrary to consensus. I'm uncertain about how to proceed, their editing is disruptive but in a petty way and its an WP:OUT minefield. Any suggestions? Wee Curry Monster talk 19:49, 19 October 2013 (UTC) Tom PapworthI have removed the {{prod}} tag from Tom Papworth, which you proposed for deletion. I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the {{prod}} template back to the article. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! SheffGruff (talk) 16:00, 14 January 2014 (UTC) Thank you for closing Wikipedia:Move_review/Log/2013_December#Haile_SelassieHi Dpmuk. Thank you for closing Wikipedia:Move_review/Log/2013_December#Haile_Selassie. I'm sorry that you found my comments largely unhelpful. Note that the comment on "authorism" was a self-declared-bias, not an assertion that other's should also be authorist, although they might like to consider the point of view. Authorism is certainly not policy. I may have argued some lines a bit strong. If you were to have overturned to "no consensus", I think it is clear, given the arguments rehashed though more developed at MR, that a subsequent RM would have found a consensus to move. I do wish that all closers would give clear explanations on contested discussions. Thank you for your excellent explanation of the close, and I think you made the right close. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:00, 14 January 2014 (UTC) Thank youThank you for your comments at WP:AN. I will try and prove the community's confidence in me by editing in a productive manner and avoid entering into conflict with other editors as in the past. You may be interested to note I have just launched the article Esteban Mestivier as I promised and I would welcome your input if you have a moment. Wee Curry Monster talk 21:52, 7 February 2014 (UTC) probable typoAt [1] you have the phrase "head in the sound" -- thinking maybe that should be "sand"? NE Ent 03:12, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
Move review of Cannabis (drug)Why in the world did you close this as overturn rather than relist? The discussion is still underway and in the same move request section. Yes, an RFC has been opened, but it has no authority to approve or disapprove a move. What are we supposed to do now? Open a new move request? Also, exactly what was your analysis? Considering the amount of discussion that's been invested in this, I thought you basically just phoned it in. You certainly did not offer a compelling analysis of why you called it the way you did. I urge you to change this to relist as the only sensible choice. Msnicki (talk) 21:38, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
Consensus to endorseIn this comment (diff) you wrote that "the consensus here is to endorse the close". I believe you made mistake. No such consensus exists in the discussion because no uninvolved editors commented the closure. Probably because heated debate over marihuana/canabis. Please leave this move review open for more time to allow other uninvolved editors to comment.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 22:18, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
Thank You.
Actually......it is policy, per WP:blocking policy#Block reviews, at least when it comes to declining unblock requests: Discretionary sanctions 2013 review: Draft v3Hi. You have commented on Draft v1 or v2 in the Arbitration Committee's 2013 review of the discretionary sanctions system. I thought you'd like to know Draft v3 has now been posted to the main review page. You are very welcome to comment on it on the review talk page. Regards, AGK [•] 00:15, 16 March 2014 (UTC) You overwrote the new article with an offending (points 2 and 5) redirect and protected it citing a nonsensical “reason” To match protection on Republic of Crimea (country). I give you exactly two hours to correct your mistake before appealing to the community. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 16:28, 24 March 2014 (UTC) Whoops… I didn’t realize that the protection was only temporary. So I’m going to simply revert you, unless you tried to substantiate your nonsense by something like policy or consensus, not third-party users’ nonsenses and hate mongering. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 18:23, 24 March 2014 (UTC) So… we shall meet at AN/I discussing your outrages. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 18:45, 24 March 2014 (UTC) Talkback: RFUP: Political status of Crimea You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template. —Ahnoneemoos (talk) 09:10, 25 March 2014 (UTC) Mistaken Deletion and Request to Implement ChangesYes, you recently deleted Annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation; this was not a duplicate article, this was the renaming being enacted. I would appreciate it if you could go ahead and re-do the change, but make the Accession of Crimea by the Russian Federation redirect to there. There is already a RM on the topic. It legally needs to be implemented. It is clear that the users arguing against the change are in the minority and are arguing against pretty much International consensus. They argue "NPOV" but the current title is extremelly biased towards the Russian viewpoint. As I'm sure you know the NPOV argument is aimed to please the majority...and the last time I checked, the nations of the European Union, Canada, the United States, Ukraine, and other European continental nations is a greater majority than simply Russia. On top of this, this article can be directly related to the "annexation" of Texas to the U.S. and the "annexation" of Bulgaria to Austro-Hungaria. Talk to me here please! Thanks and good day! :) მაLiphradicusEpicusთე
Grocer's apostropheHi Dpmuk Thanks for the work you continue to do in semi-retirement. I hope you don't mind a quibble with the grammar of your user page. At User:Dpmuk#Bot you currently [2] say all it's edits are being verified by me... should that not be all its edits are being verified by me (my emphasis) as its is a possessive determiner (often still called a possessive pronoun but that is not current linguistic terminology) and should not take the apostrophe (a possible example of grocer's apostrophe)? Or have I missed something? Andrewa (talk) 14:55, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for looking in to List of Silk episodes. However, while I started this article the information I added was just that contained in the old Silk (TV series) article. All further additions, including those that I have looked at and agree are copyrighted, were added by a different user. Could you please contact them in the future about issues surrounding the text on this page. Alternatively, delete the more recent edits that are those with the copyrighted text additions.

Hello Dpmuk Thank you for your interest and concerns in the text that you removed from the article which I created about the lifeboat RNLB Keith Anderson (ON 1106). I can assure you that I have written the article using several sources which include both written text and text found on line. The work I have done is written in my own words refencing different sources and any similarities are of an unintentional coincidence. I can say know more than that! if you think that I have copied it then anything I say to you at this stage is likely to be disputed by you, and I have no interest in getting into any long drawn out debate with you about this. I have much better things to do with my time. thank youCheeseladder (talk) 10:15, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
Well its nice to know that you do not have any intention in opening dialog about your concerns about my contributions with me. It is almost a week since I left you a message here. So much for Good Faith! hey. Good-by and god bless you, but our interaction ends here.Cheeseladder (talk) 18:59, 1 May 2014 (UTC) Request for commentHello there, a proposal regarding pre-adminship review has been raised at Village pump by Anna Frodesiak. Your comments here is very much appreciated. Many thanks. Jim Carter through MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:46, 28 May 2014 (UTC) DisambiguationThanks for linking to WP:DABNAME on Institute of Mathematics and Applications. I didn't even know there was a policy about naming disambiguation pages, although I probably should've by now. I'm sorry for the unneeded renaming, and thanks for the lesson! —Lucas Thoms, formerly My Ubuntu (talk) 02:17, 17 June 2014 (UTC) ReplySorry, but I've made those edits to the page in question because I previously had to clean house on this page and some of the articles regarding video game ratings due to vandals repeatedly adding examples of movies and games, as well as promoting their country unnecessarily by comparing rating systems to what is used in the United States and/or elsewhere on the Earth. And sometimes, after a few days or weeks when I tried cleaning up that trivia on the aforementioned articles, those vandals (either new ones, or the same users hiding under a different IP) return and vandalize the page or sections all over again. I added those hidden notices in order to deter such vandalism, and also because I do not understand how to add a page notice on the top of the edit page (instead of inside the text field that I'm typing in). I do not intend to start an edit war; I am only trying to prevent certain vandalism from occurring, and to clean up irrelevant trivia and other miscellaneous information.--Loyalmoonie (talk) 00:52, 23 November 2014 (UTC)Chris Your blind revert here reverted cleanup to the other editor's preferred version (because he just changed letters instead of reverting) and gave RMB as an alternate option as readout. The argument on the page is whether CNY or RMB should default.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 22:27, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi, December 2015
suggestionPersonally, I don't care what you have on your user page (unless it's like WP:POLEMIC, which you wouldn't do, of course). You could replace the template with this hacked version which should both satisfy the critics and communicate what you what to communicate per your comments at ANI.
