Archiving?

Hi Tiptoety, I noticed you archived my arbcom request. Has a decision been reached in that case? If so, it hasn't been explicitly stated. Could you please let me know what the decision was and add it to the archived thread?--Thomas B (talk) 10:25, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Yes, ArbCom has indicated that it does not wish to amend the case at this time. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 10:35, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

I hope I'm not being a pain, but where has ArbCom indicated this?--Thomas B (talk) 11:04, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

You are not. They indicated this to me on the Arbitration clerks mailing list. You are free to contact the Arbs directly if you would like this clarified. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 18:39, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

OK. Thanks. I've written to the Committee. Happy editing.--Thomas B (talk) 21:24, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Oregon COTW v 3.0.2010ish

Greetings WikiProject Oregon team member. Time for the first new Collaboration Of The Week in 2010. Thank you to those who worked on Bill Schonely and archiving talk pages. For this week, we have Concordia University and the Berry Botanic Garden. Hopefully we can mine the garden’s website before it closes down. As always, click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. Cheers and stuff. Aboutmovies (talk) 09:49, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

Editing restriction query

Good morning. In 2008 you put an editor under editing restrictions, here, and I was wondering if you considered them to still be in force as I can find nothing removing them. Reason I ask is not long after that the editor abandoned that account and started editing under Miesianiacal (talk · contribs). It seems they're up to their old tricks and I'm trying to find out whether or not the previous editing restrictions should still be applied as it seems they abandoned that account to get away from their copious block history. Thanks. Canterbury Tail talk 12:52, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Yes, those restrictions are still in place unless he can provide you with evidence that they were removed by community consensus or another administrator. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 16:27, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification. Canterbury Tail talk 17:04, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Just Out, COTW does well in new decade

Howdy WikiProject Oregon folks, time again for the latest installment of As the Collaboration Of The Week Turns. Last week was one of the more successful COTWs in recent memory as we really worked hard as a community to improve Concordia University and Berry Botanic Garden. Both are now at least C class articles and nicely illustrated (thanks to Tedder, Finetooth, and Ipoellet). Plus it really was a group effort as we had five different WPORE editors work on the garden and ditto with the school, with some overlap between the two.

Anyway, this week, we have by request the completely unrelated Just Out and Terrell Brandon. As always, click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. This message paid for by Fooians against COTW killing taxes. Aboutmovies (talk) 09:30, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

User:Collect - Note his past

Note that the user had a RFC about him Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Collect, two of the reasons were disruptive editing and wikilawyering. See: User_talk:Gwen_Gale#User:Collect_-_Time_to_back_up_your_words Phoenix of9 22:06, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Problematic_User_Keeps_Being_Problematic_After_RFC.2C_Breaks_Restrictions involves this. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 00:48, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

I am/was aware of his prior blocks and RFC. My block was simply based on his disruptive behavior at a specific article. Once he agreed to abide by the rules there, I saw no further use for the block. I assume you are asking that he receive some sort of "punishment" for his poor block history. And while you may be right, that is not really an administrators decision. Either gain consensus for some kind of editing restrictions (though, the AN/I thread appears closed), or contact ArbCom. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 04:47, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

User:WikiLubber/Sock Puppetry

I noticed you were part of the sockpuppet investigation against WikiLubber from 19 January 2010. One of the IP accounts has again engaged in edit warring (after a 1-week block expired) that has also involved WikiLubber previously. I updated Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/WikiLubber with this and another IP address but wasn't sure if I am following the proper steps since there is already an archived investigation. I have only updated the Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/WikiLubber and have not placed anything on an administrator's noticeboard.

Am I reporting this properly? Please let me know if you have any input or advice/additional steps I should take. Thanks. Sottolacqua (talk) 00:41, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

I will take a look at the case if I have time. Otherwise, another administrator will get to it. As for the report, it looks fine. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 05:08, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

User:Appys suspected sockpuppet of banned vandalisim-only user Cheyenne99911

User "Appys" is vandalizing the e.Digital Corporation article with substantially the same edits as a user banned for being a vandalism-only account, "Cheyenne99911." As I did with Cheyenne99911, I have asked Appys to bring his/her concerns to the discussion page, but neither user has done so. Your review of the matter is appreciated. Thank you. OccamzRazor (talk) 19:29, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Am I reporting this in the wrong way? Please advise. OccamzRazor (talk) 21:25, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

I don't have a bunch of free time on my hands, otherwise I would handle it for you. Instead, you should fine a sockpuppet investigation. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 06:30, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for responding. I will see if I can figure out how to to that. OccamzRazor (talk) 18:14, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

If you cannot, post to the talk page and a clerk will help you. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 19:30, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Sockpuppet Question.

Hello, earlier today I opened a sock puppet investigation Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/76.27.113.124 but was wondering why it isn't showing up on the main page where all the listings are? Did I do something wrong filling it out? Thanks! --milonica (talk) 02:22, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Oh, the bot is broken currently. I went ahead and listed it for you. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 02:46, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks --milonica (talk) 04:02, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

FYI

I saw you commenting at talk page of PeterSymonds recently, so maybe you should be aware what is going on. After the repeated outings and ridiculous WP:COI accusations about me (both on-wiki and off-wiki), I feel uncomfortable editing anything related to my work. That's fine. There are many other subjects to edit. Unfortunately, when I tried to return to editing recently, the guys are following my edits everywhere. That's not a problem too as long as they respect policies, because I can provide all sources, up to the original quotes on Russian, but they seem to simply remove everything they do not like, no matter that everything was sourced to books. No action required I think; this is just to let you know. Biophys (talk) 05:01, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Looks like a "vandalism only" account:[1] (look at the numbers and below), same here:[2], same here [3]. Biophys (talk) 15:08, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

User:Ana 20

I've gone ahead and selectively removed some of the information from that page. A look at page history will show you what I changed, and once Google updates, the information in question should no longer be searchable. Hopefully that gets everybody happy here. Let me know if you've got a problem with what I changed or think I need to take it to another level. —C.Fred (talk) 19:22, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Nope. No problems at all. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 19:25, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Advice on check user

Hiya, was just after some advice/another opinion on sockpuppet investigations, as I've never submitted a request. I came across Ohio Junior Classical League and noticed that many of the editors have not contributed much beyond that article. Looking further I came across this investigation which unveiled a large number of socks. Many of the editors to the classical league article were started after the sockpuppet investigation, and have a similar name construction. Their user pages are also formatted in the same way. Editors I'm a bit suspicious about are as follows:

There's more than that, and some IPs as well, but I'll stop there lest I bore you! The main pages I've noticed as being affected are: Ohio Junior Classical League, WMMS, Northeast Ohio Conference, WKRK (FM) and Stow-Munroe Falls High School. It seems pretty clear to me that there's a pretty big sock farm going on, but there isn't too much obvious disruption being caused, which User:Smfhs photographer appeared guilty of. Many of the apparent socks also don't seem to have been used for a few months, so a checkuser will be of limited value (though it would hopefully uncover current ones). I would be grateful if you could let me know your opinion on how best to proceed. Quantpole (talk) 22:37, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

I would file an SPI request under the same name as the earlier request you mentioned. Tiptoety ^talk 06:32, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Rollback

Hey, this may sound like a weird request, but can you remove my Rollback rights? I got it because I thought I may be interested in using Huggle, but after seeing how it works I'm not really interested. The rollback kind of scares me because of the way it reverts automatically and I'm afraid of clicking on it mistakenly. If can't be removed or it's too big of a deal then don't sweat it. It's not that important. Thanks, --Pink Bull 03:11, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Done - Tiptoety ^talk 06:33, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Oregon COTW and randomness

Greetings fellow WikiProject Oregon member, it is once again time for the Collaboration of the Week (yes, I know they are not actually every week anymore). Thank you to those who helped out the last few weeks improving Terrell Brandon, Just Out, 75th Oregon Legislative Assembly, and all the unreferenced BLPs. This week we have by request Oregon Coast Aquarium and Arvydas Sabonis (maybe the Blazers can sign him as I think he's healthy). Both need more sourcing. As always, click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. And remember folks, the only thing we have to fear is death and taxes, unless of course the dingo ate your baby, at which point you may feel the need, the for speed to get away from said dingos, which in turn can lead to a failure to communicate due to the dynamics of sound waves, though at some point hopefully we can all just get along.

Request that Precautionary's Evidence be reinstated

Please consider reinstating Precautionary's Evidence Statement [4]at the Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Transcendental Meditation movement/Evidence page. Precautionary was not being deceptive, and the evidence he presented is important for this case and was well-presented.

Thank you for considering this request. Hickorybark (talk) 20:11, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

He can still email ArbCom with his evidence, that way they can still read what he has to say. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 02:38, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Avril Troll

Please note: In reference to the Avril Troll IP sock investigation... With the evidence of trollish behavior shown, the Avril troll is using multiple IP addresses (ie: this one) to revert to complete vandal behavior. -- kainaw ™ 23:08, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

RE: Your comments on User talk:Nil Einne... I am not certain how to handle this particular situation. If the user is making a constructive comment, should the comment be removed? The Avril Troll states that he was never banned and has been given permission to return. I do not know if that is true. My question is: If a user is indef. blocked/banned, is it proper to delete any and all posts from the user on sight? -- kainaw ™ 23:12, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

The comment does not have to be removed, that said I recommend that it is. While Avril is not "banned" they are indef blocked and are not allowed to create sockpuppets to evade said block. If they wish to appeal their block, they should email ArbCom. Tiptoety ^talk 23:43, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

It may be a coincidence, but as soon as this started, a new account was created that continued the same behavior. contribs here. -- kainaw ™ 15:56, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Appears already blocked. I will have a CU look into it. Thanks, Tiptoety ^talk 21:42, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

re notification of arcom thingy

Wow, how about that! Thanks for the heads up. Herostratus (talk) 03:30, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Re: Looking for a SPI Clerk

My concern was over the single purpose accounts focused around the article Baron Mulingar. User:Leeadam68 (article creator) stops editing, then User:Historyislife starts, which is followed by User:Irishlibraryguy. As far as I can see this alone is not an issue if it is the case that these three accounts belong to one user, as there has been no overly disruptive behaviour in that a user is trying to disrupt or sidestep wikipedia process buy multiple account use (that is before the article was tagged for AfD).

My attention was raised to possible socking taking place was with the AfD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Baron Mulingar. Thing to note is the use of ( ) brackets with the signatures for User:Leeadam68 & User:Historyislife and the addition then removal of a comment by User:Irishlibraryguy. All 3 edit with a six minute period of time, in reverse order of account creation. The chronological order of the actions seem to be Irishlibraryguy adds comment to AfD, reads other comments, deletes comment then deletes content from Earl of Carbery. Historyislife then adds comment to AfD, followed shortly by Leeadam68. To me this looks like a single user using multiple accounts.

Is it worth while taking to SPI, or am reading to much in to it and leaning into bad faith? --blue520 08:12, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

I would say it is fairly obvious. Go ahead and file a SPI case. Tiptoety ^talk 20:51, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Good, thank you. One more question. With or without Checkuser? --blue520 04:00, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Please review my block and unblock request on Wikimedia Commons

Hi Tiptoety,

I've posted an unblock request on Wikimedia Commons for what was apparently an auto-block that affected me here as well. Once it was removed here, I thought it would be gone there as well, but apparently it is not.

The particular page (IP, etc) in question can be found here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:75.127.221.12#Unblock_Request

Sorry to bug you about this, but one of the notices (I think when I tried logging in or creating an account there) was to contact the blocking administrator, which was indicated to be you. Sadly, as I am blocked there, I could not do so there.

Best, RobertMfromLI | User Talk 19:48, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

I am leaving right now, but I will look into it later today. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 19:54, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

About the Eliseo Soriano article

I saw this conversation and I would like to get your help. I recommend that the Eliseo Soriano article must be locked so that only admins could edit it. COI editors Shannon Rose and "anonymous IPs, Dar book, Journeyist" are struggling to prove whose edits are right. I believe that the term "International Fugitive" should be removed since the official (not an archive that was only added by Shannon Rose) INTERPOL website does not include Soriano in the fugitive list. 180.191.63.230 (talk) 07:57, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

I think it would be best if you unassigned the permission. --Cryptic C62 · Talk 14:56, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

I see no real reason to decline the request. After looking at his deleted edits (speedy deletion tagging and such) he clearly understands our policies regarding article creations, notability, etc... Also, he is a trusted user with a clean record on multiple wikis. I see no harm in grating him autoreviewer. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 16:11, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Re: Talk:The Pool Party

Either you're too good or I'm too slow and fat-fingered. I started an admin note on Talk:The Pool Party. Could you please delete it? --moreno oso (talk) 00:18, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Deleted - Thanks, Tiptoety ^talk 00:20, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Confirmed. You're good; I'm fat-fingered. ;) ----moreno oso (talk) 00:20, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Page protection

Good morning.... can you please protect the article Demographic history of Bačka until the conflict me + Wladthemlat vs Hobartimus + Outesticide is solved? —Preceding unsigned comment added by MarekSS (talk • contribs) 05:14, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

No need for protection. You both just need to move from reverting one another to discussing the issue on the articles talk page. Please note you both have violated WP:3RR and could be blocked, so I suggest you both cease. Tiptoety ^talk

The dispute will not stop soon, I think it should be introduced at leaast a protective rule (1RR or something like that)

There is an old conflict on WP: [6] [7] (MarekSS (talk) 05:34, 28 May 2010 (UTC))

At this point, I am not going to take any further action. If you both use a little common sense and move to discussing the issue on the talk page, the dispute will be resolved for the time being. If you want a more long term solution, I suggest making a post at WP:AN/I. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 05:37, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

I will try to sum it all up :

The problem is about inserting in the article the sourced data sbout the censuses from 1715 and 1720 which present an overwhelming majority of the Serbs over Hungarians
The Hungarian users refuse to add these data to he article, claiming that they are not reliable (personal opinion unsupported by a source) and organized in september 2007 a vote about the reliability of these census data, even if the data are confirmed by academic sources User:Fcsaba (Hungarian editor), User:Hobartimus (Hungarian editor), UseR:PaxEquilibrium (Montenegro editor), User:Rjecina (Croatian editor) (so not even an user from Serbia, the country that the area belongs to)
In present Me, User:Wladthemlat, User:PANONIAN contest this vote and the argument of the supportees of not inserting data from these censuses is that themselves consider History declared them unreliable (without showing a source, so it is just a personal POV)
In conclusion, does an opinion of a certain user from Wp override an academic source? (MarekSS (talk) 06:13, 28 May 2010 (UTC))

Please note the above posts of user:MarekSS were confirmed as a sockpuppet of the indefinitely blocked user:Iaaasi, while user Iaaasi is tagged as sockpuppet of user:Bonaparte. Hobartimus (talk) 14:20, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Dear "user", if you read your own post, you will realize that you yourself describe a consensus of editors from different countries -as you point out-. A consensus by definition is not the opinion of a single or "certain" user. You also seem to have an extremely good knowledge of wikipedia for someone who has been an editor for only a few hours. Hobartimus (talk) 08:17, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Please explain what are your arguments for not including those sourced data, except personal POV (MarekSS (talk) 08:19, 28 May 2010 (UTC))

Full stop. My talk page is not a noticeboard, and is not intended to be used as a battle ground. Please take this discussion elsewhere (article talk page, one of your talk pages, AN/I). Thanks, Tiptoety ^talk 18:01, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Orangmike

I have made the real Orangemike aware of this impersonation account in a post just a moment ago. Seemed like the right thing to do. Just making you aware. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 05:33, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Alright, thanks. I can only assume he would have made some kind of confirmation edit if it was actually his. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 05:34, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanx to both of you. Odd to be impersonated with that degree of enthusiasm. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:49, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Amandabilliot

Following on from the Alx Dokkis SPI, another user pointed out Amandabilliot as the potential puppet master. I have raised Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Amandabilliot as a result. Cheers Fæ (talk) 10:22, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. I will keep an eye on the case. Cheers, Tiptoety ^talk 17:35, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
