Check out one of the versions of User talk:68.192.223.254 that has the numerous vandalism warnings. The user blatantly vandalized two articles and then decided to be much more subtle in his/her vandalism by changing numbers in articles. The vandalism warnings came after the editor was asked to stop doing that because it doesn't conform to WP:MOSNUM. Despite that, the edits continued. At that point, vandalism warnings appeared to be the only course of action. Hope that helps. -- Gmatsuda (talk) 16:21, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Edit warI am trying to improve the German Shepherd Dog article with a gallery and more and better pictures. The old ones does not illustrate the dog article well, being dark and unclear. User : Ameliorate is reverting the pictures. I removed one because it is uncertain if it should be in the article, (Young Alsatian and Sheperd mix) but the rest should stay. He reverted them 3 times already : 14:41, 2 February 2009 Ameliorate! (Talk | contribs) (25,448 bytes) (→Description: rv photo back 01:31, 3 February 2009 Ameliorate!

And I think removing it is also constitutes vandalism. Warrington (talk) 17:35, 3 February 2009 (UTC) Thanks for your answer. Ok, than that means that it is not vandalism, only an edit war. Sorry. The other editor seems to revert me without dicussing anything. I have to note that have been encouraged many times to add galleries to articles, when there was a lot of nice pictures which were not used in the article on Commons. That because many readers do not know how to find them. A dog article, I belive should show good pictures about the dog breed, I think this is one of the main reasons why people want to read dog articles. I think that pictures are an important part of the articles, wich, if you remove the pictures, will consist of a large amount of text without any visual documentation. Warrington (talk) 19:05, 3 February 2009 (UTC) Not justifiedI am not an administrator, however, I feel that you as an administrator has abused your authority for the blocking of Klasyays. One administrator declined the unblock request for the reason of a 'direct threat of harm'. When you read the Wikipedia polices to blocking it does not cover the type of comment made by Klasyays as the comment was not a direct threat of harm. Because the comment could have meant anything with no stating threat embedded within it, then multiple emotions could have arisen from the recipient, in this case it would seem the comment is threatening, but blocking someone when there is doubt of there true intentions is unjust to Wikipedia policies and an abuse of your administration. I hereby strongly request the immediate unblocking of this user. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shawtydoit (talk • contribs) 05:11, 4 February 2009 (UTC) Hello from french user ArapaimaHello Kralizec !

Feel free to add it to the WP:LAME page as my well-deserved trout slapping. Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 18:08, 10 February 2009 (UTC) Huh?Precisely what did you mean by this? You know that his conduct was unbecoming of an admin, yet, you'd have "most likely" cast a stone in the other direction? It would help explain why groups of editors become anti-admin after a while. One rotten fruit can make all of them look rotten; but it's a real shame for the project when that happens. The only reason he wasn't strongly admonished for his conduct was because every admin who wanted to respond knew that it'd have fallen on blind eyes - and I know that for a fact because I was told so by 3 respectable admins who were trying to make sure I stayed calm. Other than mischaracterising my posts, he's been stirring this up from the beginning, and tried very hard at the end, despite Kurykh's message to stop. First he's going to say something needs to be done, then he's going to make up a grudge, and next he's going to make up something else. Why bother noting that his comments are uncalled for? Howwwww pointlesssss...instead, seeing it's most likely, might as well cast a stone in the other direction, rightttt?

(OD)Luckily, I have Kralizec's talkpage watchlisted, or I would never have known I was being discussed here. Ncm, I began making out that page when it became apparent you were not going to stop your edit war to make your opinion known in the resolved tag. As I said, I consider the entire discussion lame and reverted you once, then stopped. My edit summary clearly said "There's no need to edit war commentary into the resolved tag, [7]" and as such, I wasn't going to. You seemed dead-set on changing the tag to reflect your opinion on the situation, both adding the "punitive" tag and replacing it five more times. You were edit warring, and I filed the diffs away in case you wouldn't listen to reason. When you were reverted by the third different editor, you stopped, and so I did not file a report of any sort. Your comments to me and to other editors (and indeed, above) didn't seem to show that you understood what had happened and that you were edit warring, so I just finished the page and saved it. I have no desire to file a report on you. I'd much rather not have contact with you again, to be honest. At the same time, if this situation comes up again (as you seem to keep returning to it), I'd like to have the diffs available to show any admin my conduct. Since this same discussion appears at Ncm's page, I'll also repeat these comments over there. Kralizec!, apologes for taking up your time with this. I appreciate your patience.

Please re-instate the statement regarding Million Dead break-up. Thank you. Jontyjoesph (talk) 00:06, 10 March 2009 (UTC) Aaaarrghhh. Sorry about all of this Kralizec.

Once again, sorry about all this.David2206 (talk) 00:08, 10 March 2009 (UTC) Also, if you look through David's own talk page you will see he has a history of trying to disrupt pages when he decided to "blank" his own talk page with a false stop. Jontyjoesph (talk) 00:13, 10 March 2009 (UTC) Yes, and I have received the warning for that (as a new user I did not know it was not allowed for my own talk page). You recently performed the same action on the Frank Turner talk page, deleting my comments on the validity of claims regarding Frank Turner's involvement in the Million Dead break-up. Anyway, this is immature, and it is too late, and doesn't concern Kralizec. What matters is that the Frank Turner page has been reverted to its un-vandalized state.David2206 (talk) 00:21, 10 March 2009 (UTC) ...except it's *NOT* in an un-vandlised state, is it? You know full well that allmost every member of Million Dead has stated in public interviews that they blame Frank Turner for the break-up. Jontyjoesph (talk) 00:38, 10 March 2009 (UTC) West Memphis 3 / DetroitwheelHey, you previously blocked Detroitwheel (talk · contribs) for his edits on West Memphis 3. Looks like he's continuing in the same path, removing sourced (though probably not as sourced as it should be) content and adding what at the very least looks like unencyclopedic content (diff). I get the impression he's POV-pushing (edits like changing "In 2007, DNA collected from the crime scene was tested. None was found to match DNA from Echols, Baldwin, Misskelley nor John Mark Byers" to the unsourced "In 2005, DNA collected from the crime scene was tested an foreign alleles found on the bindings on Steve Branch, and a penile swab from Micheal Moore were consistent with DNA samples from Echols and Misskelley", and completly removing the section on "Mr. Bojangles"), but I'm not completly sure what his goals are. The article really needs some work, but to be honest I'm not really interested in it besides keeping it "clean" and the revision before Detroitwheel's most recent edits seems OK after I removed some unsourced content. Sorry to bother you about this, but I feel someone should do something about Detroitwheel. Cheers, --aktsu (t / c) 09:51, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
Vandalism on Square Root Day pageHello This morning, having seen the protection on this page has been removed, I made an edit removing some irrelevant material. Not two hours later someone added the 10/10/100 date again, even with the interdiction by Finell. If I am reading this page right, you placed the vandalism protection on the page earlier. Perhaps it's time to do so again. It looks like someone is obsessed with putting that date on the page and will not stop. Thank you!

Enigmamsg 05:08, 17 March 2009 (UTC) Vandalism in Rock of Love Bus with Bret MichaelsHello, Krazilec! I too have noticed the vandalism in the call out order of rock of love 3. I did my best to help bring it back to the way it was. One thing of note is that I felt it was important to turn Ashley's elimination light blue in episode 9 (Exes and Ohs) as hers was not a standard elimination. If you watch the episode, you will notice that Bret was all ready to give Ashley the pass but asked the key question that revealed how she truly felt about her ex boyfriend in Las Vegas. Because of her hesitation to answer we all knew she wasn't ready to move on and be there for Bret and it was only then Bret decided to end her tour there. Her own inability to answer and move on from her ex qualifies as a voluntary withdrawal, not a standard elimination. Kimmymarie24 (talk) 05:29, 17 March 2009 (UTC)Kimmymarie24
That's ok. I felt it was important to point this out because the way this episode ended for Ashley is strikingly similar to Episode 6 of For The Love Of Ray J entitled "Bad Girls, Bad Girls Whatcha Gonna Do?" in which the wine glass was available to Cashmere at the end, but her own hesitation to take it because she had second thoughts about the pressure around the other girls (and Ray J was not about to pick it up and offer it to her but there it was) earned Cashmere's elimination a dark purple voluntary withdrawal color on the For The Love of Ray J page.

Toddst1 pretty much summed it all up for me: as per WP:BLOCK, the purpose of blocking is prevention, not punishment. In light of the IP's commitment to stop, any block I levied now would be punishment.

Regarding Vampire: The Masquerade – BloodlinesI just noticed you protected Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines. I also see that the protection was requested by User:VitasV. I monitor this page, and do not feel as thought he edits Vitas is complaining about were vandalism. As near as I can tell they were actually anonymous edits by a registered user who appears to have simply not logged in. On the article's talk page, you'll see a comment from Wesp5 who asks that people stop changing his edits. I'm pretty sure the IP edits in question were his. The edits in question looked to me like valid content, rearranging a section of the article discussing patches to the game. Further, Vitas said in his PP request that an IP editor had removed portions of the talk page. I don't see any such edits in the history of the page in question. -FeralDruid (talk) 06:46, 26 March 2009 (UTC) Oklahoma City bombingHello, I have spent the last few days cleaning up the citations, adding more sources, removing multiple unreliable sources, and moving information around for the article.

Please Unblock The Indian Institute of Planning and ManagementQuite clearly, the page should be unlocked as soon as possible for more comments and new editors should be allowed to edit. I find semi-locks strangely and biasedly enforced on this page. It would have been quite easy to block vandals using an approach that I find Wiki administrators using on other pages where: 1. Administrators could block IP addresses of vandals 2. In case vandals use multiple IPs, administrators could use the facility to block IP ranges, which I believe they have. 3. Block user ids of vandals and proxy ids too. Though I do appreciate that there has been a temporary semi-protect placed some time back, I believe this is a good time to remove it as (and I quote from Wiki policy), "Page protection should not be used solely to prevent editing by anonymous and newly registered users. In particular, it should not be used to settle content disputes." And I hope that this is not the case currently going on with this page as I find it strange that editors who have registered beyond three months are still not allowed to edit. I request administrators to kindly remove the edit lock. Sincerely, Dean.A.Sandeep (talk) 11:55, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

The Field of Chairs is a copyrighted artwork (copyrights are automatically granted since 1984), which belongs to the Oklahoma City Memorial Foundation—a private organization.[35] As explained at commons:Commons:Deletion requests/Oklahoma City National Memorial images, the copyright of the art remains with its creators.

Physician assistantInteresting. I did not vandalize. I was correcting one of the editors spelling, and awkwardness. I put down facts that were cited and yet because of peoples opinion of the topic I was blocked from editing.

Oddly enough I put the first comment up to see how quickly someone would see it. Secondly.. the second comment. I was attempting to add a comment box that many other wikipedia articles use. As I am not that good at this wikistuff, It looked horrible and I deleted it. As for everything else. I put true non-exagerated CITED facts. Looking now at the page. Everything has been deleted.

S3G EditsWRT your comment on the removal of information on the S3G Core, I'm curious as to why (to the best of my knowledge) what is still classified information should be listed on the S3G page. I note that similar information (core design characteristics and (for most of the pages) power ratings) are not listed on the other pages. If there is a de-class source that can be sited, we should list it. Otherwise, the information should probably come down. Cdrikari (talk) 16:08, 6 June 2009 (UTC) Re: AIV caseHello Kralizec!, although earlier today you indicated that you would be "actively monitoring" this editor, I thought I'd drop you a quick note to update you on their most recent 'activities' in case you missed it. This afternoon, IP editor 99.230.163.202 added unreferenced statistics to a whole series of Ontario Canada geography articles, was subsequently warned 1-4 by myself, and another editor intervened and advised him as well. Actually, I reverted most of his edits myself and then posted to AIV. 99.230.163.202 subsequently resumed adding the material, until you stepped in and advised him to stop. This evening I've taken note that (apparently) the same editor has re-added all of the material that was removed this afternoon. They have restored the material, but instead of providing a reference as requested for the statistics, they simply added a generic url for a front search page of Stats Canada in the edit summary of each article they dealt with. This material has now been added to perhaps 25-30 articles. I thought I'd mention this to you, considering that you might want to provide them with the opportunity to self revert these fairly useless additions. Barring that, I'll volunteer to step in tomorrow and extract the material from each of the articles once again. Just let me know on my talk page how you want to handle it. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 04:04, 8 June 2009 (UTC) Image tagging for File:USS Block Island (CVE-21).jpgThanks for uploading File:USS Block Island (CVE-21).jpg.

The mine covers No 1 Orebody and No 3 Orebody. No 2 orebody was excluded from the mining lease at the request of the traditional owners and included in Kakadu National Park. From Ranger 4 the line again turns northwards and then swings westward round an Archaean basement dome before turning south towards Nourlangie Rock again. Uranium mineralisation is known at several other places along this line but has never been explored in detail because of the creation of Kakadu. The name 'Ranger' for the series of discoveries made by Geopeko Limited, the exploration arm of the Australian mining company Peko-Wallsend Limited, in the period 1969 to 1972, was thought up by Judy Ryan, the wife of the geologist in charge of the program. Koongarra and Jabiluka were retained by the companies that found them: Noranda Australia and Pancontinental Mining respectively, although since sold to other parties. The other discoveries are enclosed in the National Park, locking up an energy source that is estimated to be greater than the oil reserves of Saudi Arabia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.100.44.62 (talk) 01:54, 22 July 2009 (UTC) Why block changes to Twomey's page?

I know you're kind of restricted to "WP's five strikes and you're out" rule, but honestly - thirty one strikes? Who cares if he's been warned or not; it's not like these were all accidents. Gah! I'm sorry, I'm just friggin' frustrated at spending all this time making sure his edits were vandalism only to have nothing done.

As you are directly familiar with the issue, I turn to you. You semiprotected the article because an anon was adding false and unsourced awards (probably vandalism as you cited).

I am requesting to show proof that this page is legitimate or at least userfy it. Under "Criteria for musicians and ensembles", Pogo does meet criterion 11. His song 'Alice' has been spun on Triple J nationally around Australia. A worker at Triple J Unearthed e-mailed Pogo to say he could play his tracks on air if Pogo posted him a CD. If this is proof enough Pogo said he would gladly to send it your way. I can also rustle up the comments and messages he has received from listeners that report 'Alice' being heard on air.

There's someone who is fervently against Barack Obama who has been vandalizing my page from different IP addresses under the mistaken belief that I blindly support everything Obama does when I would have reverted vandalism to the article on the current U.S. President no matter who was elected. That's the background. There's this edit on one of the IP's talk pages, who hasn't yet been blocked. Do you think it should be reverted and the IP blocked as a WP:BLP violation? Do you think it should just be reverted without any other action? Thanks for your advice. LovesMacs (talk) 03:28, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks For The GuidanceThank you. The only thing which makes me not to post a warning message on the vandal user page is their use of a dynamic IP.

Very nearly every edit to the article is vandalism from an anonymous IP, and I'd have thought that the nature of the edits ("LOL, my friend or work colleague [insert full name] played the Milkybar Kid on TV, it's true!") would have been a minor BLP concern, as the subjects aren't going to appreciate being a prominent Google result, or having a lazy journalist or blogger paste the list of names into something else. This isn't just one guy vandalising, it's children and bored office workers all over the UK and Australia passing through once and adding the name of the kid in their class, or the guy in their department, who looks like the Milkybar Kid. --McGeddon (talk) 22:43, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

I was wondering why there is so much resistance to having a page for YahElite? Surely an established program that was the first or second 3rd party chat client on Yahoo! is a notable subject for a short Wiki article. Chat clients are a pretty large part of the whole chat thingy, and YahElite has been around since the beginning. Unless chat, and Yahoo! are such unimportant parts of society that a client that pretty much spawned an entire industry writing 3rd party chat clients is considered somehow "too commercial" to talk about, it should be able to sustain a very short page. Look, I get it that Wiki isn't an advertising resource, but I purposely went out of my way to write as neutral an article as I could, considering that if I hadn't found YahElite I wouldn't probably even know how to plug in a computer. I have no profit motive for writing it, I wrote the TOS for it as a favor to the author because of my legalese reading ability, but beyond that, I have nothing to gain, so why on earth would I write a spam article for commercial purposes? Everything I know about computers, damn near, I learn as a direct result of finding and using that client, which put me in contact with all the other chat client writers and gave me an opportunity to learn my craft from them. Literally, thousands of people have been helped by me, as a volunteer problem solver on a dozen different forums, and all of it a result of the chat thingy. People live their entire lives on chat these days - and I cannot believe the aversion to a specific client has spawned such a drive to insure an important part of that phenomena can't have a page, but people can devote an entire page to the use of the word "pwned" in games. Sheesh, what a ludicrous set of arbitrary standards. I don't really give a damn what you people do about it, but it sure seems like a vendeta, more than a justified reason to be rid of it as "spam". Just my 2 cents worth. Don't feel a need to reply, I only brought it up in case it was a spiteful vandalism thingy or someone really doesn't understand what a chat client means to about 300,000 different distinct users world-wide.

Re: Article edit: KazakhsDear Kralizec, Please mention that edit was not an experiment or test. The article is about Kazakh people, and the photo is not representative of Kazakh people. It shows 4 presumably nomadic, poor people. The kids and the man look more like Han Chinese. And the yurt is not of construction usually used by Kazakhs. The roof-top structure is different as well as coating. Thank you for your consideration, Andrew —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.24.61.83 (talk • contribs) 10:31, 21 September 2009
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Kazakhs, you will be blocked from editing. — Kralizec! (talk) 11:59, 23 September 2009 (UTC)--------------------- Now you contradict yourself, you said that I should not touch the image and alter the caption instead, and that was exactly what I did.(Quote:"If you disagree with the caption, take it up there rather than at the Kazakh article.") But you just reverted my edit and threatened me with banning. As defined in the article Vandalism is a a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia. In my case I am trying to improve the relevancy of the content in the article to its name. And I am providing reasoning for my actions, rather than mindlessly deleting the content. This is a dispute over the content of the article and as it is further defined - edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism. It seems to me that you just have an unhealthy attitude towards the article. And you are using your authority and position of an Administrator to scare me, by intending to ban me. I mean how healthy is that? If you disagree with me - prove me wrong, that's the idea of free Encyclopedia. The universal access to editing all the content in the attempt to make Wikipedia better. What you are doing - you are just using your authority to prevent the edit that you personally do not like. And the reasoning is quite questionable. I understand you are busy with editing and tidying up huge amounts of data in Wikipedia, but your attitude towards this issue is quite unhealthy. I will try to contact Wikipedia management or other administrators about this specific issue, because I think your opinion regarding this specific article is not objective and you attitude is not the one you would expect form the administrators of a Free Encyclopedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.24.61.83 (talk • contribs) 09:58, 23 September 2009
If you remember, one of my major arguments is that the picture itself is not proven to depict specifically a Kazakh family. There is no indication of that. The faces of the people as well as the type of the Yurt they use does not comply with Kazakhs looks or Yurt building style. You should understand that there are many Nomadic people in the Central Asian region and parts of China: Kyrgyz, Karakalpak, Jungar - but ut does not mean - they are all Kazakh. That's why I've made and edit to the picture name (which you prevented for no particular reason) - Nomadic People - Not Kazakh. You just want to keep the article as it was - without considering and effort to improve the relevancy of the information presented. The definition presented in the article will need to be revised as well, as it is quite vague. There are many "Turkic people of the northern parts of Central Asia" and not all of them call themselves Kazakh, there are Kalmyks, Tatars, Chuvash etc... You yourself admit that you do not have any knowledge in the issue, then it seems a little strange to me why you prevent my argumented edits. Having lived in Kazakhstan for a while and having studied Kazakh people history, I happen to know some specifics of Kazakh people looks and way of life. I understand that there was a request to protect the article, then the requestee should present his opinion - why he thinks the edit was wrongful. I assume the requestee should have some background knowledge in the domain. Your opinion on this matter is not that of an expert and as far as I understand you are following the procedure, without having ability to analyze whether your actions will do better to the article or not because you don't happen to have any background knowledge on the subject of the article. If your purpose is to enforce Wikipedia policies and guidelines this also means that you should make sure that the content presented is relevant and will make the information presented more valuable for the reader. As for this particular picture I do not believe that it pictures Kazakh people, rather is pictures a Nomadic family, moreover it was made in 1987 - which I believe should be indicated in the caption(otherwise people should assume it is a recent picture). Overall, I believe that this photo with its current caption is irrelevant to the article. And "an otherwise un-involved admin" without "any particular knowledge of or interest" in this article I can understand that you are not able to be objective on these edits - because you do not have any background on the subject. Then I should assume that your threats to ban me is just the way to accertain your authority and power in Wikipedia. To put it in simple language you are saying:"I was asked to protect this page. I don't quite know anything about Kazakhs but I can ban you for trying to change something." As an person with no interest in the article and no background knowledge in the issue, I would expect you to introduce me to a person who issued the requests for Page Protection in the first place. I believe that person should be able to present a well-argumented opinion on why he/she thinks my edits were wrongful. From that point you could monitor our hopefully healthy discussion in an attempt to bring most relevant information to the article to increase its value to Wikipedia readers. Otherwise, as you stated that you do not know much about the content of the article or Kazakhstan and Kazakh people in general, it seems that your attempts to prevent all my edits do not have enough ground under them. ---- Andrew —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.24.61.83 (talk • contribs) 23:51, 23 September 2009

Help Desk?recently one of my friends (user:kallie_n_kat) became a member of the Help Desk team on a game called Perfect World UK. This gave me an idea: why not create a wikipedia help desk for people who have problems or questions regarding wikipedia and its contents? The idea being to find someone who isn't an administrator but knows a lot about wikipedia, maybe even make a new user called HelpDesk or something, and make a link to their talk page so when people have questions they all know where to go. You don't even have to make that person an admin, and you don't have to pay them either since the Help Desk is usually an all-volunteer crew. On top of that, other users can see what questions people have and--if they know the answer--help out as well. Anyways, just a suggestion :) IP BlockI know the rules on warning escalation. That's why I was giving multiple level-2 warnings: I wanted it to be clear how much vandalism this IP had done in 48 hours (all with the same modus operandi of adding the name all over the place). I wasn't "escalating," I just wanted to make it clear to the next editor that came along how much blatant vandalism this account had done in the past (much of it reverted quickly by other editors w/o warning). Some of the articles, s/he had to be reverted by multiple times by different editors. And it's obviously not a "new" vandal: the skill s/he shows with using piping to create bizarre redirects shows some experience (among other things, like nicely placing the name in references so it appears like it's supposed to be there, sticking it into film casts just right so it looks proper, i.e., Peter Dais as John Hale in the Crucible). So I placed the warnings as I did. Then, when the IP then clearly maliciously undid my undoing of his vandalism, right after the warning—I gave a final warning and gave up and just cut/pasted the list of the list of the rest of the vandal edits to his talk page. At that point it became clearly blatant. When I report someone to AIV, I do so in a thought-out manner; I have read the policies and try to apply them in an appropriate manner given the particulars of specific situations. I will not utilize a process unless I have some familiarity with how it works; I am not some sort of a loose-cannonball-noob. Furthermore, regardless of my handling of the situation, it seems rather bizarre to decline to block an editor who has made 14 edits of which 14 were vandalism of a clearly insidious and intentional nature. This is not "edit testing" or "sandboxing"—look at the nature of the edits. When there is a blatant vandal, they ought to be treated like a blatant vandal. I was actually being very conservative to start: even though it was clear, I was just giving level-2 warnings for each edit (though clearly redundant, I thought it would at least get the message across that his vandalism "has been noticed"). When the IP then reverted the edit I had just warned him for, that put the button on the case.
Please read what I am saying this time. First of all, the "productive edit" you linked to was vandalism again, just as I had explained. The IP goes all over the place putting the name Peter Dais where it doesn't belong; which is what I said to you in my first post. Then you link me to an instance of that and say "this edit is productive." Did you even read what I had said about this pattern vandal? Now it's 15/15 edits placing the name Peter Dias where it's not supposed to be! Am I not making myself clear? As I said above, there is 100% evidence to assume this editor is intentionally vandalizing (and has done it before, from a different account or IP), based on the skill he shows with placing the name in the script (i.e., hiding it in references so it looks like it belongs, making false pipes, nicely adding it in a cast list for a film, etc.). This is clearly not an editor who needs to be "educated," this is an intentional, educated vandal! What else am I supposed to say? You nicely educated me blocks are "used to prevent continuing disruption." That's what I was trying to do! I gave him multiple level-2 warnings; then when he proved he was going to continue as vandalism-only by reverting my reversion of his vandalism, it came to the point where the block would be "used to prevent continuing disruption!" Then you tell me what WP:BLOCK states. I know! This editor made it patently obvious that they were clearly a "Disruption only" IP; I gave evidence for this. Then the IP goes and does the exact same thing again and you message me saying he's "productive"? What gives? Thanks for quoting a bunch of policies that I already knew to me verbatim; each of them does not apply as you have quoted them in this context. Each situation requires specific and thought out application of the rules, not verbatim quotes from an editor who knows them to another editor who knows them. Thanks. I don't know what else to say.
P&P - perhaps you can calm down a bit. The IP has made exactly one edit today. I assure you the encyclopedia will not fall apart if we warn a vandal one or two extra times to be sure they "get it" before they are blocked. Issuing multiple warnings in quick succession when the editor is not active will still result in only one orange bar. Frank | talk 19:58, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Looks like you're doing plenty of good work on the Wiki (as usual). Just a few questions: I put Karl Marx up for a protection request and you posted that the IP(s) were blocked. I'm very glad that there are that many IP's (and the occasional rouge user) that will not vandalize that article again. However I've been watching the article since I started on Wikipedia and I did put it up for protection once, it was denied (as far as I know), so I decided to wait for a while. Ever since I have seen very few true, constructive edits to the article. The history page is plagued with IP->revert->IP->revert->etc. When I look at the page now, the first 50 edits you see are in that very cycle. I'm not familiar with protection policy, and do not have the time right now to review it, so I'm hoping you can help me for the future. Happy editing! --Marx01 Tell me about it 23:23, 16 October 2009 (UTC) Thank you for reviewing it and doing your job! Happy editing!

Re: Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespaceBy all means, re-add the text, although it could be edited a bit (maybe "You should check that the user has made harmful edits since their last warning – the user must be given a chance to see and react to each warning given.") I just wanted to shorten up the intro, which seems to have gotten into the WP:TLDR range, and that caveat seemed self-evident to me, but if your admin experience says otherwise, I defer. » Swpbτ • ¢ 19:05, 18 October 2009 (UTC) DYK for SS Empire BayHi Kralizec!

You protected the article Earth Song from 'excessive vandalism' (a bit of an exaggeration) after a hypocritical (not an exaggeration) plea from Pyrrhus16, a very active contributor who may be incapable of adopting a NPOV towards to any article relating to Michael Jackson. The circumstances of the BRIT awards incident are well documented and were properly referenced in the Earth Song article before deletions by Pyrrhus16. The awards incident should not be portrayed on Wikipedia as if written by a fan of one or other of the parties involved. Thanks. Constant vandalism and disruptionI don't understand why you admins turn blind to Tajik (talk · contribs) when he goes around use sockpuppets in your faces and vandalize pages after pages. Is Wikipedia some type of gang related website? User:Tajik is removing sourced material from articles, this is vandalism and you admins allow it. He uses the excuse "falsification and POVs" but it's really him doing those if you concentrate on his edits. These are only few examples: [59], [60], [61], [62], [63] He and Inuit18 (talk · contribs) (sockpuppet of Anoshirawan) pops up as a tag-team and usually at the same time, I believe that account is shared by him and someone in USA who's English is not so great. It's so strange that he comes everyday but only edit very little, so it's very likely that he's using sockpuppets to evade his 1 RR restriction. Tajik pretends that he is against POVs but it's he that is a POV pusher."The author - in this case al-Biruni - is referring to the Suleiman Mountains. In that case, it is highly probable that he was referring to Pashtuns, because he had described them as a "Hindu people" before.... Tajik (talk) 01:10, 26 June 2009 (UTC)". It's very clear for readers here that Tajik hates Pashtuns with great passion so he wants to give them a new history which would make them being Hindus when all the scholars, history books, encyclopedias, and the Pashtuns themselves, disagree. There is "zero traces" of any Hindu culture among the Pashtuns. Anyway, Tajik was blocked 17 times and banned for a whole year but he doesn't seem to care about any of that, he just wants to remove things from articles that he doesn't agree with or doesn't like. This is a serious problem and you guys should put an end to it. I also believe Muxlim (talk · contribs) is him. Rangeblock requestYou just blocked 58.8.240.243 (talk · contribs) as a vandal-only account. Within minutes, 58.8.15.238 (talk · contribs) became active and started the same edits. Can you possibly do a rangeblock? The use of multiple IPs is stopping us from reverting due to 3RR. Thanks! Singularity42 (talk) 15:25, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Illuminati linkCould u resolve this dispute about this link in the illuminati page ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminati#External_links http://nexus23.org/warfare/content/view/799/38/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sp4rt4n (talk • contribs) 12:21, 10 November 2009 (UTC) Vandalism user warning escalations and protocolsHi Kralizec, I accidentally erred in repeating the last Level 4 warning for User:24.173.92.65, but, respectfully, since that individual went out of his/her way to commit three specific acts of vandalism on Language Interpretation, two of which defamed named individuals who were the object of his/her scorn, a single bot generated Level 1 warning was wholly insufficient. Each instance of vandalism warrants a response, especially in this case where many Level 1 warnings were issued to that account in the previous month. The anti-vandalism bot software, and frequently other individuals who keep reissuing Level 1 warnings, are allowing miscreants to excessively vandalize Wikipedia to the detriment of all legitimate users worldwide. In that context, multiple warnings for a vandalism spree are more that justified. Vandalism patrol is an incredibly dubious activity which consumes countless hours that would be better devoted to article creation and improvement and other project work; however its currently necessary in order to preserve what we have jointly create and value –the frustrating cost of a system which does not properly address vandals. In my view its better to place a fence at the top of a cliff (i.e.: effective anti-vandal protocols and registration procedures), rather that an ambulance at the bottom (a/v patrol and cleanups, which collectively consume many thousands of hours). I fully support Wikipedia being a "....free encyclopedia that anyone can edit", but not "a free encyclopedia that any vandal can abuse." Kindly help convey this philosophy to other Wikpedians, Admins and SysOps. Best: HarryZilber (talk) 16:01, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

I am from the Sultanate of Oman, and i know that there are definitely no more than 50,000 followers of the Shia sect of Islam. The only people who practice this sect are members of the Lawat family, (see:Al-Lawati.), and the Lawats are only 20,000 people, tops 30,000, add another 20 to 30 thousand people to the figure just to be a bit generous, and you get the total figure of around 50,000 followers of the Shia Religion in the Sultanate of Oman. Just for the record, the number which was given before I made the change did not cite the number, I simply changed the number because it was extremely off.

Thanks. Careful; you deleted my talk page warning, unread.Hello. As a recent editor to User talk:66.166.183.7, I wanted to leave a friendly reminder that as per WP:USER, editors may remove messages at will from their own talk pages. While we may prefer that comments be archived instead, policy does not prohibit users -including anonymous editors like this one- from deleting messages or warnings from their own talk pages. The only kinds of talk page messages that cannot be removed (as per WP:BLANKING) are declined unblock requests (but only while blocks are still in effect), confirmed sockpuppet notices, or shared IP header templates (for unregistered editors). However, it should be noted that these exceptions only exist in order to keep a user from potentially gaming the system. Thanks, — Kralizec! (talk) 00:34, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

User talk:Das Ansehnlisch is edit warring concerning content he is trying to change in the Past Masters (The Beatles albums) by removing critical details essential to the article about the songs in this compilation double album. Please investigate. Steelbeard1 (talk) 00:00, 16 December 2009 (UTC) I disagree that the user was inappropriately warned. If you look at the first bout of vandalism 26 November, the initial vandalism was reverted by A man alone. Five minutes later Naomi 1997 vandalised the page again, which was again reverted by A man alone. Naomi 1997's edits added spurious names to the cast list,clearly malicious in nature, and part of a definite pattern of similar vandalism to this page for many months. It seemed pointless adding multiple warnings in response to repeated vandalism in a single incident, especially when Naomi 1997 had so quickly reverted A man alone's revert, so I added a 4im. That the same user has now returned to the same page and made substantially similar vandal edits in many respects justifies that level of warning. I would be interested, however, to hear how you think they should be warned this time around - or indeed retrospectively amending the initial warning - in any way that would have any effect on preventing them from returning and making similar vandal edits in future?

I've asked him to not push the limits and asked others to have a clarity period in January 2010 because this is such a huge mess now. If Mr. Weber refuses the clarity period, that will only harm his case. If he accepts it, it will make it easier for others to assess the situation.

Plus it's got MS IE6 which is nowhere near as good as Mozilla Firefox3.0 in its handling of CSS; things get hidden (the ast two lines o every page get hidden by the category box) and I've occasionally kind-of assumed that if I can't see something, it is in fact there.
