Ah! That's better! I feel some poetry coming on:
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

File source problem with File:Johann Hari notes.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Johann Hari notes.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
Good evening! This is a friendly message from Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry, inviting you to the London Wikimedia Fundraising party on 19th December 2010, in approximately one week. This party is being held at an artistic London venue with room for approximately 300 people, and is being funded by Ed Saperia, a non-Wikipedian who has a reputation for holding exclusive events all over London. This year, he wants to help Wikipedia, and is subsidising a charity event for us. We're keen to get as many Wikimedians coming as possible, and we already have approximately 200 guests, including members of the press, and some mystery guests! More details can be found at http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/London - expect an Eigenharp, a mulled wine hot tub, a free hog roast, a haybaleamphitheatre and more. If you're interested in coming - and we'd love to have you - please go to the ten.wikipedia page and follow the link to the Facebook event. Signing up on Facebook will add you to the party guestlist. Entry fee is a heavily subsidised £5 and entry is restricted to over 18s. It promises to be a 10th birthday party to remember! If you have any questions, please email me at chasemewiki at gmail.com.
Thanks for the note-I can't say that I'm terribly impressed by the 'circumstantial evidence' that user:zafio isn't david r, I certainly regarded him as one of dave r's sock/meatpuppets back when he started posting in 2007. The preference for hagiographic, tediously long explanations of bits of Hari's writing, and wholesale reverts would be typical of dave r. His contribution history [1] would support the notion that he is too, and I note that his recent editing has started to attract attention in the blogosphere, for what that's worth.FelixFelixtalk10:37, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well, fwiw, while user:zafio was earlier claiming to be based in South-East Scotland, the IP address from which he edited my Talk page just now (2.24.249.104 (talk) 16:49, 16 July 2011 (UTC)) is located near Skipton, North Yorkshire. I had already pointed out to user:zafio as a friendly warning, presuming that he was not David R ( WP:AGF), that to a neutral eye, his editing history and his Wikipedia history generally did not look good in the middle of sockpuppeting rumours. He did not extend WP:AGF: he opted to get angry and declare he had every right to edit Johann Hari's page if he wanted, any time he wanted. I didn't think that was a sensible attitude if he wasn't connected to David R, and I still don't. Yonmei (talk) 18:10, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This discussion is sailing close to the wind: see WP:OUTING. Please note that is a link to a subsection of Wikipedia:Harassment, a page with the nutshell summary: "Do not stop other editors from enjoying Wikipedia by making threats, repeated annoying and unwanted contacts, repeat personal attacks, intimidation, or posting personal information." I think both of you should bear that in mind. Charles Matthews (talk) 07:16, 18 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, Felix-Felix - you might not remember me, but I got embroiled in the Hari editing for a few months at the end of 2007 (occasionally signed in as Sam Spade, but mostly unsigned), but was ultimately thwarted by the indefatiguable David R. Feels great to be vindicated, doesn't it? I wrote to Private Eye about the incident in the Autumn of 2007 and they never responded - they really missed a scoop! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.85.37 (talk) 15:29, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Alright Sam-I remember you well (I didn't have too many friends editing that page back in 2007!), it is really quite nice to be vindicated-although I feel a bit like I'm talking to myself by replying to you here-how come you don't sign in more often?FelixFelixtalk10:46, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry Felix! I forgot my Wikipedia password/login details and, in any case, only ever contributed to the JH entry! I'll be keeping an eye on it in the future, in case 'meth productions' gets back in business! SamuelSpade79 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.5.42.215 (talk) 21:57, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
For the long hours of work you put in defending the Johann Hari page against the "improvements" demanded for it by David R from Meth Productions and his sockpuppets, in the face of criticisms from other Wikipedians who would not believe what was going on, I salute you! Yonmei (talk) 14:39, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
sockpuppet editing
There is an open WP:SPI case looking at sockpuppet editing primarily on the Johann Hari/ Talk page. As you edited the Johann Hari/Talk page between 2004 and 2011, your input is welcomed.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 1595 club, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Siege of Malta. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Paleolithic diet; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
Thanks for that, but I've not done any reverts, just a bunch of individual edits, starting (and finishing) yesterday. So not an edit war, unless the definition of an edit war has changed since I've been away...FelixFelixtalk10:33, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
