Stop spam deleting

You are breaching policy, even though you reference it. Recreation of deleted material. A copy, by any title, of a page deleted via a deletion discussion, provided the copy is substantially identical to the deleted version and that any changes in the recreated page do not address the reasons for which the material was deleted. This does not apply to content that has been undeleted via deletion review, deleted via proposed deletion, or to speedy deletions (although in that case, the previous speedy criterion, or other speedy criteria, may apply). Also, content moved to user space for explicit improvement is excluded, although material moved or copied to circumvent Wikipedia's deletion policy is not.

It is repeated material because it belonged in USER:NARCBERRY instead of NARCBERRY. Now put it back.

why

did you defeat my page im learning now

Your page was deleted per CSD A3, which means it had no meaningful content. Nakon 18:07, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thanks for reverting vandalism on my userpage. I'm still curious how you find these userpage vandalisms so quick. ~RayLast «Talk!» 19:33, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently we disagree widely in our perceptions of what is disruptive. Would you mind if I asked you to stop being disruptive on wikipedia? --Lemmey talk 23:06, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you can provide examples, I can look into what you have problems with. Otherwise, stop being disruptive. Nakon 23:08, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say anything about problems I was only inquiring about a possible communication. Now it appears you are trying to make overly-assertive commands. Regards--Lemmey talk 23:12, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

advertising

There are many companies advertising on here and have external links. Car companies, etc. Check out Ubuildit. Do they belong on here? I saw other similar external links so I figured if other links are on here why not add to it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jerehill (talk • contribs) 00:53, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

HarveyCarter & SPs

Why did you revert my edits to HC's sockpuppets? This guy has vandalized for years, hundreds of user names and thousands of edits. Friend of his? - IP4240207xx (talk) 02:19, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dynamic AOL IPs can be used by almost anyone and usually are not marked as socks. Nakon 02:19, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
By looking at the "User contributions" of some of these IPs they are EXCLUSIVELY the edits of HC, you can tell by looking at the articles edited and the ones HC & SPs edited. There is no doubt Watson. - IP4240207xx (talk)

Exclusive IPs

These IPs, if you check the history's are all exclusively HC, the articles are the same, these is only one day that is in the history (I have put the date here), and the edits are the same, some of them VERY VULGAR and rude, you should check them.

Judging by the looks of Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Method to protect your user and talk page from "quicky" vandals, I fear he is not going to fix the issue. If that is the case, do you want to block for disruption, or shall I? --Kralizec! (talk) 17:23, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If he continues editing outside of his userspace with the signature, I will take care of it. Nakon 17:26, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Score one [1] for diplomacy! --Kralizec! (talk) 17:31, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, to be diplomatic what you need to do next time is to ask if the link template is missing from the raw signature and along with that question provide a cut and paste solution in the event it is. This would certainly speed up the process of raw signature restoration. However, the ultimate diplomatic solution would be to allow the sinebot to provide the user name and link as the rule rather than as the exception.) -- Taxa (talk) 17:54, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User:Hi200

Perhaps an indef block was a bit harsh--this user only made 2 edits. I think a shortening to, say, a month may be more appropriate. Editorofthewikireview my edits here! 20:42, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User:CalebBenefiel

I have been reading over this individual's entry's block appeal at WP:RFU and I cannot, for the life of me, determine exactly where you have determined harassment or personal attacks have taken place. The only thing I can find that raises any red flags with me whatsoever is that this editor seems strangely versed in Wikipedia policy for only having a half dozen edits, which makes me wonder about sockpuppetry. But aside from that, and unless there's an obvious link between socks, I'm of the mind to unblock him. Trusilver 09:40, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Their second edit was to create their user talk page with a link to OrangeMarlin's user talk page. OM has been harassed over the past few days by new users and IP addresses and I assumed that this was yet another account used for the same purpose. If you feel that unblocking is appropriate, please do so. Nakon 14:38, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think that was just a misunderstanding. From where I sit, it looks like this user was attempting to steal the template that OrangeMarlin uses on his talk page but inadvertently linked himself to that page, (I looked at the template and I'm pretty sure that had I tried to use it for my own page I would have done something ham-fisted like link to OM's talk page too...) so I don't think that there was any malice intended. Trusilver 16:22, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Nakon! It was an honest mistake that was only live for ~15 seconds: diffs with timestamps (I'm surprised you even saw it since it was live for such a short time!). I saw the "leave a message" bar on OrangeMarlin's page and decided to do the same on my own, but I accidentally left his username in - which is why I quickly edited it. If there was a way to permanently delete that mistake in my original revision, I certainly would have! Thanks again for helping to keep this project spam and vandal free, CalebBenefiel (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 16:34, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

British Isles - bardcom edits

Hi, twice (more?) now you've gotten involved in blocking anon IP editors that blindly reverted my edits. Some background: recently, I've been checking articles using the term "British Isles", and I've corrected many articles that misuse the term. This has upset a number of editors, which isn't my intention. Many of my edits are challenged, and I always discuss and explain, and more often than not, the edits are accepted. I also try to limit the number of articles I change per day so as to cut down on the time it takes to reply/discuss etc. I am always happy to discuss my edits, and I spend considerable time and energy on this task. One of the anon IP editors you recently blocked User talk:81.5.133.89 subsequently admitted to having a login, but was chosing to not use it. So, today, User:TharkunColl has blindly reverted most of my work today, and has exhibited the same behaviour as the anon IP addresses. I don't know if there's a link. I'll revert his edits, and I've put a comment on his talk page that I'm willing to discuss my edits, etc. Can you keep an eye? Any advice? Thank you. --Bardcom (talk) 22:05, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Nakon, I used to be listed as an AWB user, but changed my name and it doesn't recognise me any more.

U of Maryland rangeblock

I saw that you blocked 129.2.18.0/24 in apparent response to Seancarlin84's latest spate of vandalism to my user and talk pages and those of other users who've reverted or blocked him in the past. (A call to Maryland's abuse-reporting people about this says those addresses are assigned to computers in graduate dorms there).

I have extended that one to two weeks to cover the end of Maryland's current academic year. I will also be blocking the 129.2.44.0/24 range ... he has sometimes used that, too. And I'm semi-protecting my user and talk page for the same time period. Daniel Case (talk) 02:53, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Block of User:R.Tabor

Hi, I see you blocked this user in response to a post at WP:ANI. On his talk page he is protesting his unblock. His edits appear to me to have been an, albeit clumsy, attempt to remove highly controversial and poorly sourced information from Suzanne Olsson and hence not subject to the three revert-rule. Please would you review this block. Thanks. CIreland (talk) 22:55, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I feel that the block was justified as it appears that he did not attempt to engage in any discussion. If he would like another administrator to review the block, he may use the {{unblock}} template. Nakon 23:03, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
His clumsy attempts to remove the material suggest he is not confident with processes and conventions of Wikipedia and should not be expected to necessarily select the most ideal course of action. However, he did attempt to discuss the issue (see Talk:Suzanne Olsson), although given the nature of his reverts, there was no requirement for him to do so. Although he has not used the {{unblock}} template he has clearly asked for a review of his block. As an adminstrator reviewing the block, I still do not believe this block to be justified and so I ask you again to reconsider it. CIreland (talk) 23:11, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am not going to remove the block. Nakon 23:12, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Because we have been unable to agree, I have requested further opinions at WP:ANI. CIreland (talk) 23:23, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for restoring this -- he also blanked the talk page for the article, which I restored. I gave him a warning about that (I didn't know at the time he'd tried to blank the article) which I hope is ok.

Er, is there any chance you could expand on the logic behind your close? Thanks. JoshuaZ (talk) 03:49, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello? JoshuaZ (talk) 17:10, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There was a consensus to keep the article deleted. Nakon 17:19, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm having trouble understanding that interpretation. The breakdown was 17 in favor of recreation, 14 in favor of keeping it deleted, 3 in favor of "wait", and 2 for "reluctant restore". Combining the 14 for kd and three 3 wait, leaves 17 in favor 17 against and 2 weakly in favor. That might be a no-consensus, default to status quo but I have trouble seeing that as a consensus to keep deleted. This is especially the case given that some endorsements of deletion were explicitly WP:IDONTLIKEIT. JoshuaZ (talk) 17:38, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Joshua. Nakon, I really think you have failed to use your admin. privileges correctly. --WikiCats (talk) 21:34, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I also would like to complain about your closure http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2008_May_7&diff=prev&oldid=213163822. The lack of rationale, given that the debate was well contested, shows a lack of respect for all involved. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:36, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not to pile-on, but speaking as someone who has previously closed a discussion on this article as deletion endorsed, I really think you dropped the ball on this one. IronGargoyle (talk) 01:44, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nakon, are you going to respond to anyones concerns here? JoshuaZ (talk) 14:03, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have to agree with the above. I thought the closing was very poor— no rationale given whatsoever. At the very least it should have been a no consensus. I think the Australian Wikipedian Noticeboard deserves an explanation. The fact that many of the contributions for deletion occurred on the last day of the debate makes me rather suspicious too (but that has nothing to do with you). JRG (talk) 03:24, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • I did not participate in this DRV (although I did have plenty to say in other discussions) but none of the objections here seem to grasp the point that assessing consensus is more than counting votes. From WP:CONSENSUS

    "In determining consensus carefully consider the strength and quality of the arguments themselves, including the evolution of the final positions, the objection of those who disagree, and in complex situations, existing documentation in the project namespace. Minority opinions typically reflect genuine concerns, and the logic may outweigh the logic of the majority"

    For myself, the reason I did not participate in the latest DRV is because I could see merit on both sides, given BB08 etc. However, reading the DRV discussion, there has not been an argument to restore that meets the legitimate concerns raised under WP:BLP1E. -- Mattinbgn\talk 04:25, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. Futhermore, a consensus is required to restore a biography of living persons at deletion review, per Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Badlydrawnjeff, which may have been the intent of Nakon in closing. Daniel (talk) 04:45, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
But neither of you know that— the fact that he did not give a decision is poor administration. The debate should be opened up again and more people given the chance to comment. JRG (talk) 04:25, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That's distinct, if Nakon wants to say he judged there being no consensus to restore that's a very different claim than saying there was a consensus to keep deleted (especially because at the next DRV it will influence how people perceive the situation). Mattin, not repeat the entire DRV but given that Delaney Worthington got attention for 1) his party 2) his CD release 3) his Big Brother appearance, the BLP1E argument is really not persuasive.

Personally, I don't think this guy is even an admin. So why is he closing major debates. He should be reported to Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents‎.

Nakon, I think you should unclose the Deletion review so an experienced admin. can do it. --WikiCats (talk) 06:01, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User:Angela2109

Re block of User:Angela2109: An indef block as the first block? Err, what? Anyways, user is requesting an unblock and seems to now be fully aware of the situation, and has pledged to not let the bad copyright uploads happen again. -- Ned Scott 04:26, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If they understand that uploading images as public domain when they are clearly not is not appropriate, I would not be against an unblock. Nakon 04:28, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Concerning the Fair use policy

I can understand you ridding my page of the image "Famous stars and Straps" because it is under a fair use policy. But, please understand the other 2 that you continually delete are not. So stop deleting them. Thank you.

Cascading protection

When I was taking a look at the code for {{pp-meta}} I discovered that you have a page User:Nakon/cascade that has cascading protection set to it clearly on purpose. That is unorthodox and against what the Wikipedia:Protection policy says about when and how to use cascading protection. Instead you should apply protection directly to the pages you list in your /cascade page, and add the proper {{pp-something}} template to those pages in their noinclude sections.

Wikipedia:School threats MfD

Hi there, Nakon. Regarding the MfD, you do realize that we don't delete proposals for policy and guidelines. We either reject or accept them. I was wondering if you'd change your mind about the MfD? Bstone (talk) 01:41, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

blocking - message on talk page

Hi, I see that you blocked User:203.25.141.6, but you didn't add a message to their talk page. I thought it was standard practice to add such a message - both for the user, and for anyone else considering reporting their vandalism to AIV. Was it just an accidental omission?

Kabul University

You protected Kabul University on User:Ibrahimzai version and that is another sockpuppet of the banned editor User:Beh-nam. The page should also have Pashto pronounciation, which you helped removed. Pashto is considered the official language of Afghanistan and the Kabul University was established by the majority Pashto speakers. Editors should be nuetral here.

Deletion of Aleksi Asikainen after PROD

I would have contested this PROD. I was gone for a couple days (certainly not five, but maybe I missed it before). Could you reinstate Aleksi Asikainen? I don't believe it meets deletion criteria. -kotra (talk) 21:55, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Following our brief wikipedia-en-help chat

Hi again. Just to recommend that your "ban-on-pagemove" system does at least show a warning page first -- even if that means one more page might be moved by someone or something acting in bad faith -- so there's some chance that someone acting in good faith doesn't suddenly find themselves banned (indefinitely). Also, suggest the summary/explanation "pagemove.." is expanded to something like "Too many pagemoves in too short a period (over X moves within Y minutes)." (At first, I really didn't understand what had happened to me!) Sardanaphalus (talk) 04:22, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I intentionally don't release the block metric as it would allow the vandal to time their moves to evade detection. I will look into the other issues you've raised. Nakon 04:24, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yes, good point re the "X moves in Y minutes". You may also be in a position to recommend implementing the means to add an edit-summary-style note to a block record so future Wikipedia defenders have more context with which to decide whether or not someone is editing in good faith but unknowingly falling foul of a defense system. Thanks. Sardanaphalus (talk) 04:33, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of User:DanaUllman

Are you sure you knew what you were doing when you deleted this user page with the edit summary "Housekeeping - User page or User talk page of indef-blocked user"? Since he was only blocked "pending the resolution of [his] arbitration case" it doesn't look like uncontroversial housekeeping to me. Even the deletion of a banned user's user page (which this was not) wouldn't be uncontroversial in the sense suggested by the wording of CSD G6. --Hans Adler (talk) 09:31, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The user page contained the tag {{indefblock}} which placed it in the category Temporary Wikipedian Userpages. There were not any additional tags or notes that suggested the user was blocked due to an arbcom case. I've restored the page and removed it from the category. Nakon 12:45, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The template seems to be for all users who have been blocked indefinitely, not specifically for banned users. Perhaps you should rethink your approach of mass-deleting user pages with this template on them. --Hans Adler (talk) 13:36, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
From the template's description page: "The template places pages in Category:Temporary Wikipedian userpages, where they will be considered for routine deletion at a later date. To override this in special cases where there is a good historical reason to maintain the page indefinitely, use {{indefblockeduser}} to place pages in Category:Blocked historical users instead."

Oy. This user's other accounts need to be blocked.... they created this account to slam me... this is my real life name.

Beloved (band) Deletion

I feel that the article Beloved (band) was improperly deleted. The artist in question meets the notability guidelines set by WP:MUSIC Criteria for musicians and ensembles. They have been the subject of non-trivial published works (#1), toured nationally (#4), released two albums on an important indie label, Solid State Records, the hardcore/metal subdivision of Tooth & Nail Records that has a history of more than a few years and a roster of other notable performers (#5), and contained members who later went joined otherwise notable bands (#6). It had been deleted once before by User:Gb, and he allowed me to expand the article and he found my expansion acceptable enough to return the article to it's place (see here and here). I am not a terribly active Wikipedia editor, and the Wikipedia login cookie doesn't stay active nearly long enough, so I didn't see the notice of the proposed deletion until today. If I could have gotten to it sooner, I would have contested the deletion. I request that you undelete and restore the article. Theonethird (talk) 20:23, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article was properly deleted. The proposed deletion system automatically deletes articles that are not edited after five days. I will restore the article. Nakon 23:28, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
