You're a dude!

I reckon you know more languages I don't than I know languages you don't. Erm, read that a few times and give up. It's probably more of my bad English. rofl. If only I didn't have a jolly chapter to give to my review board in the next week! I'm kind of doing my usual I-have-writer's-block-let's-try-beat'n-it-b'-doin'-summit-at-t'-Wiki thing. noooo, more bad English!

Hmmm, even if I can't make the five days, mate, I'm a gonna write this thing up, just for you. :))

Sockpuppet investigation

It doesn't look like you actually submitted AntaineNZ/222.152.151.138 to Wikipedia:SPI? Will you? In [1] 222.152.151.138 signed as AntaineNZ in response to a comment clearly addressed to Rabka Uhalla as if it was addressed to AntaineNZ, which makes me wonder if the Rabka Uhalla account is also a sock puppet of this same user who is having trouble keeping track of which account they're logged into and who they're supposed to respond as.

Groovy. I do think it's possible Rabka Uhalla is another sock for the same user for the reason stated above, though it's possible AntaineNZ merely shares the same attitudes and inability (or pretended inability) to see what the problem is regarding the minarets or the post about toilet paper.

South Africa

Firstly, could you please revert my accidental blanking of the article? It happens whenever I use the preview button on Opera Mini and the page is too big for me to revert.

Secondly, could you please look at the ENGLISH Constitution that's provided as a source, and then give your own official source with your so-called "English" names?

Joe Arpaio Article/ Vandalism Dispute

I see you've removed my the post and made vandalism claims against me. While I can understand what the situation looks like from your point of view, I must coax you to reconsider. The twelve or so paragraphs in question have been on the Arpaio page for months now. It was only recently (20:34, 2 December 2009) that the information was removed by the user WVbluefield. I encourage you to visit this user's page to get a better idea of his involvement. I did not author of any of this information. Those dozen paragraphs were posted by numerous different people, and WVbluefield removed them all. While some paragraph were lacking proper citation, I investigated them all, and all claims check out. Alot of the information innvolved a series of events that could not be cited from one publication. It would be like asking to cite a source for WWII, Watergate, or 9/11. I hope there was not a misunderstanding when I said in my post, "Previous editor deleted over a dozen paragraphs. Factual information removed without citation. Unquestionable user bias." When I said "Factual information removed without citation." I was saying factual information was removed and WVbluefield did not cite any reason why. You can see on the revision page yourself, WVbluefield deleted over a hundred lines of text and gave no justification. This information is totally appropriate and vital to this article. Major parts of this page detail Joe Arpaio's personal life, his career, election results, actions as county sheriff, tent city, and more. I had to make claims that there was a user bias because the paragraphs deleted were the contraversies surrounding his career. When somebody deletes twelve paragraphs, 100+ lines of text, of other peoples' work and this information is all correct, a red flag should go up. I think wikipedia is the most encompassing source of knowledge we have, and it is important this factual information is included. I did not write any of it, but when I realized somebody unjustly took down these people's work, I was obligated to correct it. Wvbluefield obviously does not like people talking bad about Joe Arpaio, but the contraveries surrounding him are constructive towards the article. Would you override me if I tried to repost the contraversies surrounding Nixon if somebody had taken them down? Those paragraphs have been on there for months with no issue until WVbluefield came along. WVbluefield is clearly bias in this situation, and seeing you're from Arizona I hope bias isn't influencing your decision either. I see from your track record you do a good job of regulating the wiki world. I hope in the interest of the free exchange knowledge you can understand how important it is that this information isn't removed. Keep on wiki'n. 99.155.62.144 (talk) 06:23, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that unreferenced information remained for months is no excuse; do your research, cite every paragraph (or better yet, every sentence), and I won't object. As it stands, it cannot remain, and WVbluefield and others where correct in removing it. Reinserting unreferenced claims into a biography constitutes vandalism.

What does "Let's say I'd want to learn the very basics of Coptic" mean? Do you want to learn the basics of Coptic or are you just speaking in the assumptive voice? --Ⲗⲁⲛⲧⲉⲣⲛⲓⲝ[talk] 08:15, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The best book I know of is Learn Coptic. It's the one most of my friends use. You can get it for $30 on Amazon. Otherwise, just google it, and you'll find lots of websites that have basic Coptic lessons. It's pretty easy to learn. --Ⲗⲁⲛⲧⲉⲣⲛⲓⲝ[talk] 08:20, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Falsely accusing me and threatening me when your admin were responsible

I didn't vandalize anything. Your admin ryulong did. He DID IT. Him and that other admin treasurytag. THEY did it. You better check yourself and go back and straighten that out right now before you go threaten to ban me for something that ADMIN did.Wiki Greek Basketball (talk) 14:13, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I saw what I saw. Your actions are yours. I have already reported you for vandalism. I suggest you give it a break, they might let you off the hook. Or they might not. Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 > haneʼ 14:15, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I am telling you right now. If you do not stop this I will report it to the highest of highest at the site. Those two ryulong and treasurytag deleted and vanadlized several diffs I posted in a complaint. They did this numerous times. They also deleted the page history showing this. They then changed edits around and both of them kept hitting the send button and forced numerous edit conflicts. They then told you that I did it. I am telling you right now that I will not tolerate this and I will make sure that any admin that participated in this and/or banned me over this will be banned permanently from wikipedia. So I strongly suggest you use your brain on this.Wiki Greek Basketball (talk)

kevin rudd visit

Hi, unfortunately I know next to nothing about Australian politics, so I wouldn't dare to start any action about any page involving that... all I know is that the "Kevin Rudd visit" was in a pretty horrible shape -- they didn't even say who this guy was or which country he was prime minister of!

stop

You are disruptive because if you had concerns, you should have discussed it first. My AFD is simply to create uniformity. It is also a suggestion to merge. Now that the cat is out of the bag (your AFD) things are happening this way.

The correct way is not to create drama on ANI but to leave a comment on the AFD and let discussion occur at the normal speed, not speedily delete. Please be calm and not disruptive. JB50000 (talk) 03:26, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My newly proposed Obama article

Hey, it's Hunter. I've come up with a newly proposed "Barack Obama assassination threats" page that I think is in keeping with some of the discussion developing at the Hawaii AFD, and also is a fitting compromise to what JB50000 has proposed. I've brought this to JB50000's attention, and wanted to do the same to you. I think the guy has good intentions, but I think he's still early in developing an understanding of Wikipedia policies, and the way he's gone about this whole situation hasn't quite been ideal. I think my proposal could be a solution, but I didn't want to move it out of my userspace until I've reached out to him, to you and to the Hawaii AFD. Let me know what you think... — Hunter Kahn (c) 16:48, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just after a quick glance I say it looks excellent; frankly, I have no strong opinions about the group of articles as a whole. My main objections in the whole mess where a) notability was (and still isn't) established for the Hawaii-deal to warrant a separate article and later on (b) mainly that proper procedure was not followed (JB's copy-pasting stuff rather than getting a real page-history merger going -- and thereby creating an article that does not conform with the current licenses/raises legal trouble). So, yeah, that new thing in your sandbox is great and with the links to Main article:, it won't destroy anything that already exists. I certainly won't prod or AfD that one, if that's your concern. Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 > haneʼ 17:06, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I didn't really have a concern one way or the other, I just want to be extra-extra-extra sure to develop some discussion and semblance of consensus before I move forward with it; I don't want to add to the mess that's been going on over the last few days. :) I'd like to wait to hear from JB50000 before I move forward. Thanks for your input! — Hunter Kahn (c) 17:09, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Spam, horse feathers, and Happy New Year

Brief and trivial comment (noticing you were just before me, warning a spammer[2]) ... The boilerplate message that you added reads "Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings" Lovely, but technically incorrect, which is something that dedicated spammers are likely to know. "nofollow" does reduce the search value of a page, but there are tools that ignore the tag. I'd rather Wikipedia doesn't misrepresent, even in a good cause.
