Rollback requestDear Sir, I would like to get the rollback permission, in order to be able to use Huggle when reverting vandalism and graffiti. Cstaffa (talk) 16:11, 1 June 2010 (UTC) Quick question for you?Why do you think my change was unconstructive in the Gaza article? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DeanKamen (talk • contribs) 03:06, 2 June 2010 (UTC) Global accountHello there, J.delanoy. Since you're a steward, could you delete my global account "MC10" so that I can attach my local accounts again, as I don't have a home wiki (meta's CentralAuth)? Thanks. —MC10 (T•C•GB•L) 21:27, 31 May 2010 (UTC) Huggle 9.5Hey J.delanoy! I am trying to go on Huggle 9.5 which I think is the newest version and the login button wouldn't allow me to login because the button is gray not like the other ones that I can press. What should I do? ActivExpressionSign! 01:39, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
time sinkBecause doing that would create a huge drama and time sink that would eventually end up at ArbCom, whereas this page was never used and is full of half-truths and misleading statements (as well as clear errors of fact). It was never used, had no effect on the result, and cannot now be used, so should be deleted. An MfD would be the start of a huge mess. Verbal chat 18:24, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
We might need a rangeblock on the IPs editing the above article, but I don't know how to calculate one. Your help would be appreciated. They are already over the warning threshold for being blocked, but I don't know how to make it happen. — KV5 • Talk • 19:33, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
Checkuser Needed, PleaseA checkuser is needed on this ANI thread. Something seems to be up with User talk:Louiefontanez. Not sure if there is socks afoot, a comprimised account or what. But the user is apparently sending out emails via Wikipedia laced with personal attacks, but has made no edits in 2010, only one in April 2009, before that nothing til 2007. Something isn't right here. Could you take a look? - NeutralHomer • Talk • 00:48, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
ThanksThanks for the block on User:Bistuderby. I ignored the first round of crap, hoping he'd get bored and go play somewhere else, but today's crap wave indicated not. I'm assuming the indef block will truly be forever, but just in case, I'll also point out that the user name violates WP:U, "Offensive usernames are those that offend other contributors, making harmonious editing difficult or impossible."; I take the name as a personal attack at me - it's not like my name is even close to common. If there's an admin "double secret super probation", that account should be on it. Thanks again. Studerby (talk) 00:38, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
Privacy purposesI suggest creating a new page User:J.delanoy/talk (or something), cut/paste everything here over to there, have that page SineBot enabled, and immediately set the protection level to move=sysop. One of the vandal log entries claims to state your IP address (whether or not it's true is not much business to the public), so doing this would make it much less visible, while possibly completely hiding the other log afterwards. mechamind90 17:28, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
This arbitration case has been closed and the final decision is available at the link above. The following is a summary of the remedies enacted:

Kaiserreich et aliasHi I saw you today doing an edit on the talk page of Mtumiaji:Kaiserreich at sw.wiki. He is troubling us at the moment under a number of aliases. How did you get to follow him to sw? sw:mtumiaji:kipala ---- Kipala (talk) 18:56, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
SignpostDear J.delanoy, I see you're in the byline for this week's signpost article about the British Museum activities. Could you please make sure there is appropriate mention of the major project to come out of that day, the WP:GLAM/BM/Featured Article prize? This is more than the reporting of an event but a (IMHO) major announcement and could potentially be broken off into its own subsection. Also, could you make sure that the NYTimes article about the event gets mentioned in the "in the news" section too? Sincerely, Witty Lama 21:59, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Revision to Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire and Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri articlesI noticed that you have revised either Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri or Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire. I intend to revise those articles following the Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Article guidelines. There are more details on the discussion pages of those articles. I'd be interested in any comments you have. It would be best if your comments were on the discussion pages of the two articles. Thank you. Vyeh (talk) 14:02, 8 June 2010 (UTC) 174.132/16Hi J. I notice you've blocked this range as it's probably had a runtshit proxy on it. I wonder if you could take a look and see if the BOLT IPs are being used. There's been more than one request before to get this unblocked[1][2]. I'm not entirely sure of the whole range but I think it's fairly small. If you could take a look and if runtshit's not using it then softblock or something, it'd be appreciated. Thanks. -- zzuuzz (talk) 07:20, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
RE: Earlier WarningHi, I noticed that you have warned me for leaving unconstructive comments on another admins page. I was wondering why this was as I was just asking why requesting the removal of a page belonging to one of my family members was unconstructive? Cheers Stephen Dalbiac (talk) 16:38, 8 June 2010 (UTC) Vandalism in Albanian WikipediaI've seen you have reverted some edits made by vandal users in our Wikipedia. As I saw your profile, I thought you were the right man to contact with. This isn't related as much to another user called Elio96, who is having trouble with his articles and is struggling to keep them as clean as they should be. But the problem is that an user has started to delete contents of his articles. He has been blocked several times by our administrators, but he continues to open new accounts and does the same thing. Firstly, you can see his edits as an anonymous user (IP 81.243.35.60) then he opened an account with name Elio69, then Kristiani59, Elio66, and now Telio69. What can you do something in order that this user no longer will embarass and vandalise our articles?--Kristiani95 (talk) 05:56, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
I've sent you an email, would appreciate a response if you have a minute. Thanks, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:39, 10 June 2010 (UTC) Add this to your collection...
Thank you :-) J.delanoygabsadds 22:02, 11 June 2010 (UTC) Greetings again and thanks...Greetings J.delanoy – thanks for that and for being out there. Cheers!--Technopat (talk) 00:37, 12 June 2010 (UTC) Olde Tyme EnglisheI love it. You're only the third person (I'm the second) I know who uses the word "userboxen." Couple of questions re Huggle, if you could help. First, is there a way to get the page title checkboxes to "stay put" between sessions? Second, with "Filtered Edits," is there some way to exclude pages about bands and sports and video games?
TalkbackHello, J.delanoy. You have new messages at Raeky's talk page.

Schfifty3 04:20, 14 June 2010 (UTC) 75.233.0.0/16As you've noticed, we've got someone using this whole Verizon Wireless range to evade blocks. I checked the range and indeed they are all VZW. Do you think you could see via CU if we'd be catching any legit users before we rangeblock? Daniel Case (talk) 05:08, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
User:CanoeingPeteYou might want to be aware of this SPI. I would also recommend a long range block if possible, but I think I mentioned that before. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 05:12, 15 June 2010 (UTC) Checkuser help requiredHello, I'd be grateful for the help of a checkuser at WP:AE#Brandmeister to determine whether the account at issue is indeed likely to be compromised, as is being claimed there. I suppose one could compare login IPs, if these are logged and available to checkuser, or check whether the IP who claims to be Brandmeister matches the IPs previously used by that account. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Sandstein 21:04, 15 June 2010 (UTC) HahahaI was told by a CHU clerk that my sock account was susceptible to spoofing (spoofing checks not working on rename targets), so I create a doppelgänger to activate spoofing checks... and you hard block it within seconds- that's efficient!

Could you do another favour......and reset the protection to [move=sysop]? I want to change my userpage, but not in a harmful way. Thanks, Schfifty3 04:10, 22 June 2010 (UTC) Oh, the fun...Hi, J. If you take a peek at the history of my talk page, it would seem that I've incurred the wrath of a naughty widdle boy who first had you in his sights and is now throwing tantrums because I've stepped in to help you. Gosh, ain't it fun to administer this playpen of a site? People like that shouldn't even own computers. Anyway, I'll be keeping an eye on your talk page. A few good users are keeping tabs on mine, it would seem. Don't let the little bastards grind you down. Best, --PMDrive1061 (talk) 14:46, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
Gabi Hernandez SPIOut of curiousity, was user User:SunsetOne included in your likely finding? That user doesn't quite seem to fit the pattern to me, though PMDrive1061 felt confident enough to block them as a sleeper. AniMate 19:34, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
Im not going to trout you due to your good faith attempt at ensuring this image was protected while it was on the main page. However, you set the expiry time so that it was still on the main page for an hour. βcommand 23:32, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
Help w/ Filtrete Vacuum Accessories pageHi there, I am hoping to re-post the Filtrete Vacuum Accessories page and was hoping for some assistance. Will the following copy pass Wikipedia guidelines?

Please, Sinbad is back, he needs to be blocked. I was informing User:Rodhullandemu about this, and he was blocking those socks (almost once a week), but did you see what happened to him!? OMG, it's too bad when something like that happen. I am quite shocked. Wikipedia discussions are for strong ones... :((( Please, see below. 1. Illyrian Lizzard (talk · contribs) = 2. Sinbad Barron (talk · contribs) 1. Lizzard And sure, everything else. It is DUCK. For more, i am here. All best. --Tadijaspeaks 11:55, 11 July 2010 (UTC) IP block exemption for EditorGuy07I've granted IP block exemption for this user, following your range block of 174.132.0.0/16 (see their talk page). Although this user has had warnings in the past, and is not a frequent editor, I've given them the benefit of the doubt. However, if you have reason to think otherwise, feel free to revert me. — Tivedshambo (t/c) 21:30, 16 July 2010 (UTC) HellospartaHowdy. This user (Hellosparta) is caught in a range block you have explictly marked as checkuser related. Please review. Since you've indicated limited availability, I'll drop this note on one other checkuser's page as well. Kuru (talk) 14:24, 20 July 2010 (UTC) Black Veil Brides article creatorArticles with substantially similar text have been created and repeatedly deleted over the last several months as Black Veil Brides and Black veil brides and the creators of both have been blocked for sockpuppetry, one of which — AtlanticDeep — you did in January and the other — Mcrfobrockr — was done by Bwilkins last month. A new try on that article, again with substantially similar text (I'm not a sysop, but I looked at the article in June and remember it reasonably well) is taking place at Wikipedia:Article Incubator/Black Veil Brides by user UltraHeadShot, who appears to have a similar editing pattern in addition to the similar text in the article. Just thought you might like to know. I'm going to leave a note on Bwilkins' talk page as well. Best regards, TRANSPORTERMAN (TALK) 22:00, 29 July 2010 (UTC) Checkuser assistance?See Category:Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_778Showen778. I believe those are all socks. I keep blocking, but they keep returning, and I was wondering if a check could be done to identify if any IPs could be hard-blocked. Also, if it can be confirmed that these are all the same user.

about User:Silenceplacezh:User:Silenceplace is a normal contributor in zhwiki, however his account with the same name was blocked indefinitely in enwiki few days ago. May you doublecheck that puppet investigation to see if there was some mistakes? You may be awared that some pages of wikipedia are blocked in mainland China, I believe that User:Silenceplace had used a specific proxy which caused him to be blocked. --阿pp (talk) 08:28, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
