==[[User:Zeq]]==
{{User|Zeq}} is under Arbitration Committee probation: [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Zeq#Findings_of_fact]].

*On [[Operation Summer Rains]], Zeq adds an out of place news piece to the lead, without an edit summary, failing to use the standard referencing conventions. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Summer_Rains&diff=61530256&oldid=61526948] 

*I revert once (restoring encyclopedic lead) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Summer_Rains&diff=next&oldid=61530587]. 

*Zeq reverts, this time using an edit summary, which reads: "restored wider context of the opreation. Lead should refelect the whole article." [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Summer_Rains&diff=next&oldid=61530587] 

*I revert a 2nd time, explaining that "this is not wikinews. Stop editing disruptively Zeq. Stick to the articles consensus conventions (ref-wise, too), and the scope of the lead." [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Summer_Rains&diff=next&oldid=61530949] 

*Instead of responding to these concerns on the talk page, Zeq informs me I violated 3RR and that I should self-revert. I can't see how I did so, but I don't wish to argue over this at AN3 (or at that point, at all), so I self-revert and withdraw, knowing someone else will revert him shortly thereafter, which they do moments later. 

*Result: lead remains the same. Only after going through these (3RR diversionary) lengths is Zeq prepared to respond to my original concenrs (at that point I'm no longer interested). 

The point is that if an established editor points out to Zeq that he is editing carelessly, he is the one who should step back, and only after a discussion has taken place, be allowed to revert to his version/s. I want to see Zeq editing more carefuly, and being open to discussion not only after the fact. I'm uncertain whether the probation is proving effective as I keep seeing Zeq banned from various articles, which presumably is due to him causing problems. Is it worthwhile to continue with it? Will Zeq ever be able to tread lightly when it comes to these sort of careless and tendentious and poorly-communicated editing practices? I'm not sure that he can and therefore am open to a re-examination of the case. [[User:El C|El_C]] 00:33, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

:*This article is about a current events and as such it is updated with news by many editors.
:*I have made several polite atempts to comunicate with El_C (on her talk page) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AEl_C&diff=61531888&oldid=61479789], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AEl_C&diff=61532393&oldid=61531971], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AEl_C&diff=61532601&oldid=61532509]
:*El-C deleted all of them and refuse to work together to resolve the edit conflict. Instead she just used the reverts (citing my "problematic history"). 

:*Probation policy specifically sais to avoid "striking out on users under probation". 

:*The fact that any user is on probation should not be used <u>as an excuse</u> to avoid resolving disputes. 
:*At that point I informed her that she should [[WP:AGF]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AEl_C&diff=61544349&oldid=61533953] 

:*I should not be required to "Step back" <u>upon demand</u> by other who call themselfs "established editor". 
::No one <u> owns </u> the article.I am editing according to policy and so should she.
 
:*In her comments she pointed out her sense of "ownership" to that article(she decalred "I wrote 1/2 of it") and clearly her feeling that she own the article are the problem here. Still I appologized to her about hurting her feeling but to no avail and no coepration with her was achived despite my attempts. 

:*As for results, I made total of 2 edits to that article, that was all. (both were reverted in short time so it is not true that these changes remained in the article) I did not continue to edit after these 2 edits, did not wish to get into an edit war on this.   
**If there is one conclusion from this is that Probation is problematic tool since it encourage some users to think they have the right to avoid coopereting and resolving disputes with others who have a what they call "problematic history" .[[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 03:12, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

PS I would like also to point out that what El_C doubed "proper encyclopedia lead" is written in a clear bias: 
While Israel's poistion is lacking the whole facts and described in weasle words "israel claim that...." the Palestinian position is writen by El_c in detail and described as "Palestinians assert that..." .
some honesty is required here: El_C has a POV to push and my edit (which added few facts) was in her way. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 03:45, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

:*For the record: I did not write that addition, and it has since been [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Summer_Rains&diff=61627259&oldid=61627173 removed]. As for the "claim," that was also added by someone else. [[User:El C|El_C]] 06:21, 2 July 2006 (UTC) 

*I've banned Zeq from the article, as he continues to editorialize the lead without discussion. [[User:El C|El_C]] 04:05, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

**Clear admin abuse by El_C. Both this revert: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Summer_Rains&diff=61636081&oldid=61635626] (which is factual not editorel) and the banning. No admin can be botha party to the dipute, the judge and then exceutioner.... This action shows complete lack of good faith and the length of the article ownership felt by El_C. If anyone should be bannedfrom articles for disruption it is El_C herself. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 04:06, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

==[[user:Zeq]] request for an unbiased review of ban by Admin Tony Sidaway==

I would ask for an admin to review this decision by Tony Sidaway:

[[Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Arbitration_enforcement#User:Zeq_.28June_5.29]]

Tony is known to be, how can I say it, tough admin and he ignored different views on this case by other admins: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&oldid=57404494#Zeq_article_bans] 

Tony also ignored all my explnations as well as the fact that two arbitors who received the same original complaint (from Homey) and refused to take action on it as part of arbitration enforfment. 

It should be noted that in some of the bans I was banned by Tony were for a <b> single </b> edit on that article and in another articls I made 3 edits. 

I would ask that the bans would be lifted as they are not for "Good cause" . Please make sure to read the section of comments by other admins close to the events. Tnx. . [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 07:14, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

See section immediately beneath this one for a discussion of this request. [[User:HOTR|Homey]] 15:30, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Homey, the fact you have posted here, in a clear combative style (see below) shows that you are <u>unable</u> to let an independent review of this case take place. This is the real issue and not the need to repeat any false accusation you make about me. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 16:00, 20 June 2006 (UTC)


=== 72 hours ===

It has been 72 hours since I placed this request. 
My edit where all with good faith and according to [[WP:AGF]] I should not have been banned.

Why admins are so quick to ban but avoid review of  non good cause decisions ? [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 15:29, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

: I support Tony's actions.  [[User:Ral315|Ral315]] ([[User talk:Ral315|talk]]) 19:56, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

*I asked for a review. have you reviwed the material ? have you reveiwed objections by aother admins (such as Slim Virgin, Humeus ) ? what do you base your "support" on ? 

* The real question that should be answered by the review is:
Was I desruptive in these articles ? I think a clear answer was given by the commenting admins who bothered to review the material . also it is not good faith to argue that by one (1) single edit (a minor one) any editor can be "disruptive" - clearly this was the case on [[west bankk barrier]]. So excuse if I ask again: on what do you base your "support" ?[[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 05:13, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

::Zeq is on probation for tendentious editing among other things. He displayed this tendency, despite warnings, in the articles in question. The ban is reasonable and should remain particuarly as Zeq has consistently refused to acknowledge any fault and insists that he is in the right - this does not inspire confidence that Zeq has learned from his mistakes and will change his behaviour. As for Zeq's claim that action was "refused" be arbitrators, this isn't the case. In fact, what occured is that on one occasion I complained to arbitrators directly and one of them posted the incident here. On subsequent occasions I put a notice here myself. Since several of the articles have been under protection since shortly after Zeq's ban the bans haven't had any practical effect as of yet. [[User:HOTR|Homey]] 18:02, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

:::Since it is Homey who filed the original complaint this is not the "independent review" I was hoping for. Need an unbiased opinion. Just for the record: Homey had an edit dispute with me, as a "weapon" in his edit war he also blocked me without cause (twice). In article in which he accused me for tendentious editing I made 3 edits at the time he made over a dozen. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 18:31, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

:::::No I have not. You have not reviwed the record. If You want to prove your argument please do so. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 19:03, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

::::::I think Will response is indicative of what is going on here. An impression is created (what Will "gather") but those who examine the issue (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&oldid=57404494#Zeq_article_bans] ) provid a different opinion but anyone is refusing to look deep enough in order to get to the bottom of the issue. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 19:10, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't think serious consideration can be given to lifting the ban as long as Zeq rejects its legitimacy much like how parole boards don't grant furloughs to those who refuse to admit their guilt. See [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AIsraeli_apartheid&diff=58949457&oldid=58948682] for Zeq's attitude to the ban. [[User:HOTR|Homey]] 19:13, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

*The fact that only admins who blocked me are responding here shows that it is not able to get any serious review of this issue. My viwes on how the ban is affecting is irelevent if this ban was not done for good cause and that is the issue.  Maybe it is also worth mentioning that largly because of Homey's action the articles I am baned from are protected for over 2 weeks. <b> If I was the disruption </b>. the article could be unblocked after my ban. In fact, the articles had to be locked after I was banned because of Homey's edit wars with other editors.  [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 19:24, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

::Actually, the articles were protected on my request. [[User:HOTR|Homey]] 19:29, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

:::After you edit war your way to your favorite version. But Who asked for protection is irelevent here as well as who asked for unprotection. <u> the issue is: </u> <b> If I was the disruption </b> these articles could have been unprotected. The proof is that they are still locked for nearly 3 weeks long after I am banned from them. Something there is <u>> completly </u> not related to me. You on the other hand have violated every poosible policy (such as [[WP:RS]], [[WP:NPOV]], [[WP:Not]], [[WP:Point]] and more in your edit war in these articles. What we need is an independent review of the situation in these articles and why the dispute with you can not be resolved. It is clearly not <b> my issue </b> as you tried to present it to the few admins who baught your story. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 19:40, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

You were not the sole cause for the articles being protected but a cause. However, unlike others who edited tendenaciously you were violating your probation by doing so. [[User:HOTR|Homey]] 20:12, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

*Homey, the fact that you have responded to my request here for a review is foritself a problem that shows your vandeta and the length you go to push those who object your political POV pushing.
*Even Tony Sidaway, the admin who banned me agreed that all I was doing was trying to prevent your POV pushing.
*I again ask that an independent review of this ban will be done.
*Your argument about my guilt as part of other does not hold water. I was editing <b> by far less </b> than you and others on thse articles. The ban was not for good cause and that is whay it needs to be reviwed.
*Today, (nearly 3 weeks after banning me) the articles are locked because your political POV pushing.  [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 20:36, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

**1) Zeq, there is nothing wrong with my responding to your request given that I am an interested party. 2) You are misrepresenting Tony Sidaway's comments 3) Perhaps you should post the diffs for the edits that got you into trouble. That you haven't says much more then your attempts to smear everyone who is trying to hold you to account. [[User:HOTR|Homey]] 20:43, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

#Homey, I have not misrpersented anything. 
#I think the right thing for you to do is delete all your comments here and let the review that I asked for take place. 
#My edits (as well as yours) are not hidden and anyone can see who was disruptive. 
#All that i was asking is for an admin to take a look at the record. 
#It seems it is impossible to get that without coming under one more of your edit-war style attacks(<u>incluing now  a fresh violation of [[WP:NPA]]</u>). [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 20:52, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

==[[User:Leyasu]] (June 13)==
{{User|Leyasu}} is under revert parole, which currently dictates that he cannot revert a page more than once in 24 hours (a stricter revert parole for him is being voted on at [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Deathrocker/Proposed decision]]).  The final decision in their case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Deathrocker]].

Having already broken revert parole more than five times, Leyasu is now able to be blocked for up to a year.  He just officially got back today from being blocked for a month by {{user|Johnleemk}}, although he had been using anons to evade the block. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Arbitration_enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=57763874]  I notified him that the block had expired [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Leyasu&diff=prev&oldid=58147743], and almost as  soon as he was making edits from his main account again, he violated revert parole.

;The following diffs show the offending behavior:
*[[Heavy metal music]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heavy_metal_music&diff=prev&oldid=58290986]
::This was the first revert, which reverted edits by {{user|Deathrocker}}, another party in his current arbitration case.  This diff [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heavy_metal_music&diff=58290986&oldid=58286941] confirms that it is a revert.  He also accuses Deathrocker of NPOV violations and stalking in the edit summary. Deathrocker's subsequent revert of that edit [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heavy_metal_music&diff=next&oldid=58290986] claims that Deathrocker's preferred version of the article is allowed to stand merely because Deathrocker has been editing the article longer than Leyasu has.
*[[Heavy metal music]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heavy_metal_music&diff=prev&oldid=58322049]
:: In this edit, he reverts edits by {{user|Maxcap}} and {{user|Deathrocker}} back to the previous version which he had saved.  [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heavy_metal_music&diff=58322049&oldid=58290986]

;Summation:
The second revert took place only about 3 1/2 hours after the first, so this is a clear violation.  Leyasu is claiming that he has the support of most of his WikiProject behind him when he is doing the reverts, but only he is doing the reverts.  Deathrocker responded to one of the reverts with a personal attack [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Heavy_metal_music&diff=next&oldid=58290986], which suggests it may also be good to put Deathrocker on personal attack parole (both of them were blocked for three days before the start of Deathrocker's RfAr for arguing with each other on [[WP:RFAR]]).  As for Leyasu, he clearly needs to be blocked, as well as any anons he is using.  I was a party in Leyasu's original RfAr and have brought some evidence in Deathrocker's, so I prefer that someone else carry out any block(s) resulting from this violation.

Reported by: [[User:Idont Havaname|Idont Havaname]] ([[User talk:Idont Havaname|Talk]]) 05:26, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

: Blocked Leyasu for three months; if any administrator disagrees with me, let me know and I'll shorten the block.  But Leyasu's blatant circumvention of previous blocks with an anonymous account, combined with his violation of parole just hours after being informed that his block expired, makes me think that the user is not willing to obey the parole in the future.  One note: I didn't block the IP, as I never block IPs unless I know for sure that they're static.  If someone can confirm that this IP is static, and would not be used by any other user, I'll block that too; otherwise, I don't mind if another administrator does so.

However, on May 24, he made two edits from the IP {{IPvandal|67.1.120.58}} [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Dbachmann/archive8&diff=prev&oldid=54865385] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/FourthAve&diff=prev&oldid=54869846], in violation of [[WP:BAN]]. It's obvious that those edits must be him since they not only display behavior typical of him, but they are also signed as "FourthAve". Accordingly, please reset his ban timer to May 24, 2007.

==[[User:Leyasu]] (June 9) - possibly editing while blocked==
{{User|Leyasu}} is under personal attack parole and revert parole.  The final decision in their case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Leyasu]].  I was a party in that case but have not declared myself as a party in the current case at [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Deathrocker]], which involved Leyasu, {{user|Deathrocker}}, and {{admin|Sceptre}}.

Leyasu is currently blocked for one month; <s>the block expires on June 11</s> (''see below'' --[[User:Idont Havaname|Idont Havaname]] ([[User talk:Idont Havaname|Talk]]) 03:55, 12 June 2006 (UTC)).  I have also blocked an anon that he was using for evading that block. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:81.157.83.176&diff=prev&oldid=52871689]  Soon after the block, he declared his intentions to evade it. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Leyasu&diff=prev&oldid=52639196]  Deathrocker brought several IPs to my attention earlier today; one of them has been editing since June 4 and signs their posts on talk pages as Ley Shade. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Moi_dix_Mois&diff=prev&oldid=56809847]  Other edit summaries they have given show similar editing patterns of Leyasu (e.g. wanting to control which bands are/n't listed as gothic metal; bringing up [[WP:NPOV]], [[WP:CITE]], and [[WP:HMM]] in edit summaries for reverts; etc.) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paradise_Lost_%28band%29&diff=prev&oldid=56920249] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vampiris&diff=prev&oldid=56924089] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_heavy_metal_genres&diff=prev&oldid=57630183]  An edit by another anon brings up Deathrocker's current arbitration case. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_heavy_metal_genres&diff=prev&oldid=57700550]  I have warned the anon who has been making the bulk of the edits since June 4 about impersonating Leyasu or using an IP to evade a block. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:86.132.131.238&diff=prev&oldid=57760350]

;Summation:
This doesn't tie into the rulings directly; but if Leyasu is using these sockpuppets while blocked, the blocks are not serving any purpose.  If the anons are in fact him (they do come from a range of IPs that he has used), then he has evaded the block on two separate occasions.  This might have bearing on what we decide about Leyasu in the future, so those of us who watch this page should be aware of it whether we do anything about it now or not.

: FIrst off to clear something up. Ive been using Anons mainly to work on thigns i was already working on, before Deathrocker decided to start reverting every edit i made to everything.

: Second, Deathrocker seems to fail to understand [[WP:NPOV]]. The precedence goes to the greater view. That means when a whole Project of people give 10+ sources saying one thing, and Deathrocker gives one source, that doesnt mean everyone else is vandalising by removing Deathrockers attempts at POV Pushing.

: Deathrocker also refused to work with other editors, claiming he owns that article (and several others beside). This is something he has done before, as noted in my Arb Com Evidence.

: So yeah, once Deathrocker stops stalking me and lets me peacefully get on with what i was doing, maybe then i wont have to keep using Anons. 10:29, 12 June 2006 (UTC) [[User:Leyasu|Ley Shade]]

This is the 3rd time in a week Homey is trying to ban me from articles in which he and I have content disputes. All my edits  are maticulsly discussed in talk and I would welcome a discussion why they are not a violation of the probation. 
Homey has been dishonest about his attempts to push his political POV and been edit warring with many editors in these articles. He have leveled false accuastuions aginst me before so before starting any new ban (previous one was recinded see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Arbitration_enforcement#User:Zeq_.2831_May.29]) I hope to engage in discussion with one one who has an issue with any of my edit. Thank You.

Please encourage Homey to use normal dispute resolution procedure for content disputes.

:Maybe it's high time you relented, Homey? This harassing of Zeq is transcending all bounds: first, you blocked him twice despite being involved in a dispute with him, and now you're trying to have him banned for the second time. Zeq has given you adequate explanations on all purported cases of tendentious editing. If anyone exhibits a pattern of tendentious editing here, this is certainly you: your usage of sources like [[Sabeel]] demonstrates sheer contempt for both [[WP:NPOV]] and [[WP:RS]].

Since I am a party to a dispute with him on this page there have been objections raised to my attempts to discipline him. I therefore ask ArbComm members to give an opinion on the following:
1) Has Zeq violated his probation by engaging in tendentious editing in [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Israeli_apartheid_%28phrase%29&diff=55770068&oldid=55756301], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Israeli_apartheid_%28phrase%29&diff=55752867&oldid=55752006]?

* Homey edited the article 45 times !!!
* Homey was banned for 3RR (including 5 violations)
* Homey engaaged in a campaign against me, misusing his admin powers twice to block me with no justaification

There is more policy violations that Homey was engage in ([[WP:RS]], [[WP:Not]], editing (appliying blocks) while he was under a block) , [[WP:Civility]], [[WP:3RR]], [[WP:Point]] and more ... so Sean should have been more carefull (to say the least) while he took sides in this dispute. BTW, all other admins that Homey tried to gagng against me have told him flat-out: Zeq was editing in a way that you dispute, that is content dispute, go resolve it according to policy ( [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_noticeboard%2FIncidents&diff=55782557&oldid=55781724], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&oldid=55785276#Zeq] - in which Homey first tried to level accuastion of vandalsim against me.

Please review all facts, Homey leveled one false accuastion against me (and others) after another until <b> one </b> sympthetic admin was willing to apply a ban based on the false arguments above.  <u>My hope that Sean himself after review will recind the ban.</u> Hopefully he will be the first to review.

==[[User:Lou franklin]], 29th May==

* [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Lou franklin]]

{{User|Lou franklin}} is prohibited from editing [[Societal attitudes towards homosexuality]], the corresponding talk page, and from reverting any article more than once a week.

Lou has used a sockpuppet, {{user|Hernando Cortez}}, in attempt to evade this case. CheckUser confirms as 'likely' and the contributions remove any doubt. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ARequests_for_CheckUser&diff=55611762&oldid=55606219 Reasoning] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_CheckUser&diff=55666696&oldid=55661479 Result]

While using Hernando Cortez, Lou violated his article ban over a dozen times and his revert parole just over half a dozen, as the contributions consisted of edit warring over a {{tl|POV}} tag as Lou had done [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Societal_attitudes_towards_homosexuality&diff=prev&oldid=53703122]  [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Societal_attitudes_towards_homosexuality&diff=prev&oldid=53873609] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Societal_attitudes_towards_homosexuality&diff=prev&oldid=54880653] etc.

;Summation:
The evasion went on for a fortnight. I recommend that Lou is banned for the maximum two weeks, one week for each violation. I filed the Arbcom case and have reverted Lou and his sockpuppet, and consider myself too 'involved' to make the block myself.

Reported by: [[User:Samuel Blanning|Sam Blanning]]<sup>[[User talk:Samuel Blanning|(talk)]]</sup> 10:54, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

;Additionally:

Hernando also probably violated Lou's personal attack parole, to be defined broadly to stop Lou's continuing accusations that the article is being edited by a gay cabal. See his [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&user=Hernando_Cortez move summary], where he moved [[Societal attitudes towards homosexuality]] to [[Homosexuals attitudes towards homosexuality]], with the summary ''"Only homosexuals tell their attitudes. Normal people are not allowed. This is about homosexuals attitudes not societys"''. Also ''"I GAVE MANY REASONS. YOU DID CHEATING"'' [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Hernando_Cortez&diff=55468829&oldid=55468649]  ''"Substantial rebuttal my ass...

{{User|RK}} is currently under several restrictions for 12 months following Apr 7 2005, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/RK_2#Remedies  These restrictions include “''RK is limited to one revert per twenty-four hour period on material directly or indirectly related to Jews and/or Judaism for a period of twelve months, with violations treated as violations of the three-revert rule and also resetting the twelve-month period. Determing what is directly or indirectly related shall be left to the discretion of the administrators.''" Another restriction he is under is "''RK is placed on standard personal attack parole for twelve months. If he makes any edits which are judged by an administrator to be personal attacks, then he shall be temp-banned for a short time of up to one week, and the twelve month period shall be reset.''". 

He has violated these restrictions and has had his 12 month period reset on December 23, 2005 see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive58#User_RK


On January 15, 2006 he violated those restrictions again and was blocked for 4 days and had his 12 month period reset. See

==[[User:Terryeo]]==
{{User|Terryeo}} is under indefinite personal attack parole, and is under probation such that he may be banned from pages which he disrupts.  The final decision in his case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Terryeo]].

Within the past 24 hours Terryeo has edited my user talk page in a disruptive and harassing manner.

;The following diffs show the offending behavior:

*[[User talk:Antaeus Feldspar]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Antaeus_Feldspar&diff=54363002&oldid=54308815]
::Terryeo responds to someone nominating me for adminship with "Congradualtions, Feldspar. I guess this means people will start keeping tabs on you. heh. ''[URL to [[Daniel Brandt]]'s notorious 'Wikipedia Hivemind' page]''"  To tell someone that "people will start keeping tabs on you" is already very threatening.  To link to the infamous Hivemind page only confirms that the intent is to harass and disrupt.  As {{User|Pjacobi}} [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Antaeus_Feldspar&diff=54374193&oldid=54363002 points out], the URL itself should have been caught by the blacklist.

::Terryeo tries to initiate discussion of a quote found on my personal website.  I have never mentioned or alluded to this quote on Wikipedia; I have never mentioned or alluded to my personal website on Wikipedia.  In conjunction with Terryeo's assertion that "people will start keeping tabs on you", it is clear that his purpose in bringing up this quote is to show that he is willing to research my off-wiki activities and bring them up in order to harass and disrupt.
*[[User talk:Antaeus Feldspar]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Antaeus_Feldspar&diff=54254259&oldid=54075020]
::Terryeo disrupts a discussion with another editor, asserting that he has "tried to explain [a certain idea] before", when a) he is not the one the question was asked of, and b) his "answer" does not answer the question actually asked.  By itself, this would be annoying but not proof of an intent to be disruptive.  In conjunction with the evidence already shown, it is clearly an attempt to use my user talk page to disrupt and harass.
*[[User talk:Terryeo]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Terryeo&diff=54356891&oldid=54305621] '''Update''':  Terryeo is continuing to link to the Hivemind site, and using it to slander editors.  "BTW, InShaneee, here are some of the people you are working with. ''[four URLs, including two to Hivemind and one to wikipedia review, snipped.]''"

;Summation:
I was an involved party in [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Terryeo]].  It was alleged by many editors in that action that Terryeo was engaged in a practice set out by his religious organization called "Dev-T", or "Developed Unnecessary Traffic" -- simply translated, "wasting people's time and energy".  It is considered a thing to eliminate in your own organization -- and to increase in the organizations of "enemies".  Even after being banned indefinitely from all Scientology and Dianetics-related articles for editing, Terryeo continues to disrupt on article talk pages and user talk pages, whether it is by harassing individual editors or by insisting that Scientology, though supposedly a religion, does not have "beliefs", and persisting in pointless discussion of this impossible premise despite citations from the Church of Scientology itself referring to "the beliefs of Scientology".

:This is absolutely disgraceful and seriously threatening behavior that actually sends shivers down my spine.

Terryeo is now searching for all information he can find off wikipedia in an attempt to scare wiki contribtutors off scientology articles. Though very typical for the cult, such behavor should '''never''' be tolerated on wikipedia.

==[[User:Lou franklin]], 18th May==

* [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Lou franklin]]

{{User|Lou franklin}} is under personal attack parole, to be interpreted broadly to include unwarranted accusations of bad faith. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Lou_franklin#Personal_attack_parole]

Having returned from a one-week block for violating personal attack parole and an article ban, Lou is continuing to use his talk page to rail against what he sees as a 'gay cabal'. He is attempting to avoid sanction by saying the opposite of what he's saying, while being completely transparent about what he actually means.

*''"Of course ''I'' would never think of this user as an extremist breaking the rules to further his own agenda, but how can I explain to others that this user's actions were an act of good faith and not blatant POV pushing?"'' [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Lou_franklin&diff=53783567&oldid=53633310]
and so on in similar vein in a discussion with [[User:Jimpartame|Jimpartame]], until we reach:
*''"I don't think that this user is using Wikipedia as a PR vehicle to push a radical homosexual agenda at all, but what do ''you'' think?"''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Lou_franklin&diff=53804878&oldid=53804374]
I believe these are quite transparent accusations of bad-faith, despite the sarcastic language used. Apart from that, the accusations are identical to those Lou made explicitly and frequently before ArbCom closed - see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Lou_franklin/Evidence#Lou_franklin_is_frequently_uncivil_to_other_editors_and_assumes_bad_faith this section] of the ArbCom evidence page, so there should be no doubt about what Lou actually means.

Further: while removing various negative comments from his talk page, Lou called an editor "stupid" in [[Latin]] in an edit summary.

{{User|Instantnood}} is under Arbitration Committee sanction including Probation, General Probation, and restriction with respect to discussions on certain naming conventions.  The final decision in their case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Instantnood 3]]

Instantnood is carrying on the same revert behavior, and reviving old revert wars from months ago.

;The following diffs show the offending behavior:
*[[:Template:China-university-stub]], [[:Category:Universities in Macau]] [[:Category:Universities in Hong Kong]] [[:Category:Chinese universities]].  See histories.  Instandnood has been trying to claim these are not "Chinese" for over a year.

*[[East Asian Games]], seven reverts in three or four days over whether Macau is spelled with an o or a u. This content issue was raised during his arbcom.
*[[Kinmen National Park]], category placement. Refuses to acknowledge consensus on Naming Conventions (Chinese) that "Taiwan" is used synonymously with Republic of China and that this is usually ok. He insists that Taiwan is only the island. 
*[[Hong Kong, China at the 2004 Summer Olympics]], same edit war, different article, he was banned for this before.  Keeps replacing the SVG flag (preferred by WP guidelines for images) with a PNG one.  Despite repeated queries on half a dozen talk pages, [[Image talk:Flag of Hong Kong SAR.png]] for one, he cannot identify why the SVG flag is a problem.

::These are the same edit wars he has been banned for before.  He just moves to different articles.  The university ones have been going on for over a year now.  He comes along once a month ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Universities_in_Macau&diff=53575334&oldid=53575215] is within three hours of the one month anniversary of the last revival, I think he keeps a schedule to revive these things) to restart these wars.

In many of these cases, I am the most recent person to revert him.  I am far from being alone.  Winhunter, AlanMak, Van Helsing, etc, have all been before or after him on these reverts.

{{User|Leyasu}} is under revert parole, as was decided in [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Leyasu]].

He has violated revert parole at least six times in the past and is now able to be blocked for up to a year.  The sixth violation saw him temporarily banned from editing [[Black metal]], although {{user|Tony Sidaway}} reversed the ban after Leyasu apologized.  Leyasu has once again violated revert parole at [[Children of Bodom]] by revert warring (only two reverts from him this time) with anonymous editors who have been changing the genre description of Children of Bodom and who have been removing the sources that Leyasu placed there to back up his classification of the band into that genre.  Leyasu told me that the other members of [[WP:HMM]] would take care of the reverting, but he is still taking it upon himself to revert the anons.

;Here are the diffs that show the revert parole violation:
*[[Children of Bodom]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children_of_Bodom&diff=52125186&oldid=52123833]

==[[User:Lou franklin]] and personal attack parole==

{{vandal|Lou_franklin}} is continuing to hop around user talk pages telling everyone that there is a gay cabal editing [[Societal attitudes towards homosexuality]], despite the Arbcom ruling that I hoped would curb his continuous assumptions of bad faith:

<blockquote>Lou franklin is placed on standard personal attack parole for one year. If he makes any edits which are judged by an administrator to be personal attacks, then he may be temporarily banned for a short time of up to one week. This remedy is to be interpreted broadly to include unwarranted assumptions of bad faith. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Lou_franklin#Personal_attack_parole]
</blockquote> 

See for example [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Charles_Matthews&diff=prev&oldid=52134085] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Lou_franklin&diff=prev&oldid=52131462] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jimbo_Wales&diff=prev&oldid=52084608].

{{User|Zeq}} is under Arbitration Committee sanction and may be banned by any administrator for good cause from any article which he disrupts by tendentious editing.  The final decision in the case is here: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Zeq Zeq: Enforcement by block].

;The following diffs show the offending behavior:
*[[Nakba Day]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nakba_Day&diff=52183967&oldid=52155004]
Relevant finding of fact: '''Zeq cautioned regarding removal of well sourced information'''

;Summation:
Many reliable sources (such as those removed in the diff shown above, including Israeli and Palestinian government sources) demonstrate that [[Nakba Day]] is commemorated officially on 15 May and [[Yom Ha'atzma'ut|Israeli Independence Day]] is celebrated on 14 May in the Gregorian calendar. Zeq insists these events are on the same day because some Nakba protests are held on the same day as Independence Day and he continually removes any reference to the dates on which they are officially (and actually) held. He also removes any reference to the description of Nakba Day as a commemoration of Palestinian dispossession and most other information that contradicts his assertions about the purpose and timing of this event. I hope you agree that [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nakba_Day&oldid=52183967 this version of the article by Zeq] is '''not''' an encyclopedic improvement on [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nakba_Day&oldid=52155004 this version]. Many appeals to Zeq on his talk page and the article talk page have been to no avail and I would like to request that he be banned from this article for tendentious editing and removal of well sourced information.

==[[User:Instantnood]] (May 1)==
{{User|Instantnood}} is under Arbitration Committee sanction for revert warring consisting of spelling and POV-reorganizations.  The final decision in their case is here: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Instantnood_3#Final_decision]

Instantnood has continued his revert wars on a daily basis. Beyond just staring new edit wars, he continues to resurrect old ones from previous months - exactly the behavior the Arbcom sanctioned him for.

;The following diffs show the offending behavior:
*[[Singapore]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Singapore&diff=prev&oldid=50958927], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Singapore&diff=prev&oldid=51088574], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Singapore&diff=prev&oldid=50952597], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Singapore&diff=48712848&oldid=48661311]
::Instantnood won't abide by concensus that Singapore is a city and consistently returns to the page to remove it from the infobox. He can't find a single editor to agree with him that Singapore is not a city, because he is using an excessively legalese definition of city.  Other editors have entertained his discussion on the talk page until he got obnoxious.  At least four other editors have reverted his definition on the article itself.

*[[Hong Kong]], 
::There are actually four simultaneous revert wars going on here, each of which is with a different editor! This made it extremely disruptive for other editors to work on the article and around this warring. Many of these reverts are marked minor, and/or have no edit summary (a point which ArbCom determined was disruptive in his first ArbCom case). The wars focused on the infobox, his reverts will either individually or simultaneously revert one of these items:
#[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hong_Kong&diff=49617096&oldid=49616397] That [[Victoria City]] is the capital city of Hong Kong, over a year ago, even the Hong Kong government ended the first revert war over this fact.  They said that Hong Kong has no capital city, period and that Victoria City no longer exists.  An overwhelming majority of other editors agree with this statement.
#[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hong_Kong&diff=49615878&oldid=49613998] Whether to use an svg or png version of the HK flag. Honestly, I don't know the basis either way for it, but he's sitting on a revert war about it without discussing it - and that is the problem.  The position he's taking seems to be a violation of editing guidelines for images (the opposite one is preferred). I'm not aware that he is trying to discuss this with anyone.
#[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hong_Kong&diff=49616397&oldid=49615878] Whether [[March of the Volunteers]] is the national anthem of Hong Kong (which it is, as part of the PRC.).  He's not discussing this with anyone.
#[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hong_Kong&diff=48719372&oldid=48690476] Whether the term for standard Chinese in the infobox should be "Mandarin" (the common name) or "Putonghau" a transliteration from Cantonese used locally.  I have seen him discuss this, and overwhelmingly other editors have expressed preference for "Mandarin", for global recognition.

*[[Pacific Rim Capitals]]
::A new article which seems to lack a point for its existance.  Instantnood has found this another place to revert war.  Two facts at war here:
#Instantnood is insisting on removing ", People's Republic of China" from after the section heading for Hong Kong (every other city on the list has it's country after it).  To the point that he put a dubious template on it [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pacific_Rim_Capitals&diff=50934002&oldid=50933830]. I have no idea what his justification for this kind of removal is. There is absolutely no question that Hong Kong is part of the PRC. This edit defies reality.
#[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pacific_Rim_Capitals&diff=50631612&oldid=50035370] and another 10 times or so.  Instantnood keeps insisting (on several articles) that the ENTIRE OFFICIAL NAME "Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China" must be used, and cannot be broken up by wikilinks to "Special Administrative Region" and "People's Republic of China".  So in order to provide such links (which are fairly important to put that wordy official name into context) he insists on duplicitious phrases like the first sentence in that diff, "The Hong Kong SAR of the PRC is an SAR of the PRC"

*[[Special administrative region (People's Republic of China)]]
::Extremely POV re-org of an article, which is what ArbCom said is justification for page banning.  Instantnood is removing this article from the category for administrative divisions of the PRC.  Said category contains all administrative divisions of the PRC, including the subcategory of the same name as the article.     [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special_administrative_region_%28People%27s_Republic_of_China%29&diff=50959015&oldid=50956592]

[[Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/RJII_v._Firebug#Remedies]]

{{user|RJII}} is being insanely disruptive and is trying to remove all citations of [[An Anarchist FAQ]] from wikipedia, as he has personal problems with the FAQ. Wikipedia policy allows the use of online resources as primary sources; RJII has been trying to block the usage of that source.

There are more cases, but this edit is the latest:

*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anarchism_and_anarcho-capitalism&diff=50282978&oldid=50282269] - He removes ALL citations of the source from this article, asserting his own interpretation of policy. -- [[User:Infinity0|<span style="color:red;">infinity</span>]]'''[[User_talk:Infinity0|<span style="color:red;">0</span>]]''' 17:27, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

:infinity0 does not understand the Wikipedia policy [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources Wikipedia:Reliable_sources] According to the policy, the FAQ cannot be used as a secondary source. And, he doesn't understand the difference between a secondary and primary sources. Saying it can't be used as a secondary source means it cannot be used in articles as a credible source about the views of anarchists. It can only be used as a ''primary source'' --that is, it can be quoted to show that the FAQ says in an article about the faq (the [[An Anarchist FAQ]]) article. Administrators and others have agreed with me (See the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Reliable_sources talk page for the Reliable Sources article under "FAQs"). The Wikipedia policy says: "''A personal website or blog may be used only as a primary source, i.e., when we are writing about the subject or owner of the website. But even then we should proceed with great caution and should avoid relying on information from the website as a sole source. This is particularly true when the subject is controversial, or has no professional or academic standing. WP:V says: "Self-published sources... may be used only as sources of information on themselves, and only in articles about them. For example, the Stormfront website may be used as a source of information on itself in an article about Stormfront, so long as the information is notable, not unduly self-aggrandizing, and not contradicted by reliable, third-party published sources. Self-published sources may never be used as sources of information on another person or topic.''" According to administrator SlimVirgin, the section on "Personal websites" applies --the FAQ originates from a Geocities.com website, and whoever runs that website can put whatever he wants in the FAQ --it's not published and the authors are a mixture of unknown people are people with no academic qualifications. Administrator SlimVirgin announced a warning on an article where the FAQ was being cited: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AAuberon_Herbert&diff=50047917&oldid=50028927] Also, the section on Partisan Websites appears to apply: "''Partisan political and religious (or anti-religious) sources should be treated with caution, although political bias is not in itself a reason not to use a source. Widely acknowledged extremist political, religious and other websites — for example, those belonging to Stormfront, Hamas, the Aryan Nations website or the Socialist Workers Party — should never be used as sources for Wikipedia, except as primary sources i.e. in articles discussing the opinions of that organization or the opinions of a larger like-minded group, but even then should be used with great caution, and should not be relied upon as a sole source.''" Fortunately, this policy helps protect against what has been happening: Someone has been putting original research into Wikipedia articles, then when a source is requested, he goes and puts the original research in the FAQ then comes back and cites it. It's fraudulent. The FAQ cannot be used a credible source for Wikipedia articles. I'm trying my best to keep Wikipedia information verifiable by credible sources.

==[[User:Leyasu]] (April 20)==
{{User|Leyasu}} is on revert parole, per [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Leyasu]].  Leyasu has been blocked for violating this ruling four times already, and Leyasu may have violated it through anons earlier this week (see the section below this one for more information on that); there is a [[WP:RFCU|CheckUser request]] currently listed to see if the anons were in fact Leyasu.

Leyasu violated revert parole again with the following reverts:
* 10:12, 20 April 2006: "Rv" [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children_of_Bodom&diff=prev&oldid=49264193]
* 16:59, 20 April 2006: "Revert. Clear vandalism. Use of anon to violate admin warning" [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children_of_Bodom&diff=prev&oldid=49308939] (not only violating the ArbCom ruling, but also assuming bad faith)

In keeping with this user's prior edit summaries for reverting edits by other users to [[Children of Bodom]], Leyasu is continuing to tag the edits which they are reverting as "vandalism" or "clear vandalism", when the edits in question are not vandalism as defined by [[WP:-(]].  As a fellow party in the arbcom case where this ruling was given, I will not block Leyasu myself due to any possible conflicts of interest; but I ''strongly'' recommend blocking Leyasu for doing these reverts, particularly if the CheckUser case turns out confirmed, so that the ruling in the case will be upheld. --[[User:Idont Havaname|Idont Havaname]] ([[User talk:Idont Havaname|Talk]]) 22:37, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

: Leyasu is skating on very thin ice despite having had the meaning of "simple vandalism" clearly explained to him by arbitrators quite recently [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration&diff=48325313&oldid=48325036].  '''I'm blocking for the current maximum of one week''', and the next offence may attract a much longer block as it will be the sixth infraction and the maximum block length has gone up to one year. --[[User talk:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway]] 12:59, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Within hours of returning from this seven day block, Leyasu violated his revert parole on [[Black metal]].  I also strongly suspect that he may have used non-logged-in edits, for instance by {{vandal|86.132.128.147}}, to evade his block (see recent edits on [[Children of Bodom]]).

<s>I have banned him from editing [[black metal]].</s> --[[User talk:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway]] 18:49, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

: Ban rescinded after a positive and civil response. --[[User talk:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway]] 20:22, 29 April 2006 (UTC)


==[[User:Leyasu]] (April 17)==
{{User|Leyasu}} is under Arbitration Committee sanctions of revert parole, personal attack parole and probabtion.  The final decision in their case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Leyasu]]

Leyasu (aka Ley Shade) is currently serving a 48 hour block for a breach (not the first) of revert parole. I have recently been engaging with Leyasu in an effort to get them to work with others at Wikiproject metal and on other metal pages. However, such efforts have not been going too well recently and [[User:Ryouga]] has just brought this to my attention:

"I am unsure to whom I should tell this to, but in case you didn't know IP address [[86.143.126.71]] has been vandalistically reverting all pages I have made any edits to, and I am convinced this is Ley Shade. S/he has reverted and vandalised all the pages I have made any edits to, and dirtied up the page again from previous cleanups. This was obviously done as an attack against me. Please do whatever you can...I am sure we can expect to see more anonymous users appear and spring these attacks against my contributions. Thank you --[[User:Ryouga|Ryouga]] 23:50, 16 April 2006 (UTC)"

After notifying Ryouga that I would bring this up here I then received the following message, apparently from Leyasu:

"This IP is me, the other i do not know, nor do i make a habit of getting in revert wars using IP Adresses. However, i have a message for Ryouga, to which they should stop attacking and changing the articles, until i am unblocked and in a position to discuss the reasoning for the reverts with them properly. [[User:86.132.129.203|86.132.129.203]] 00:03, 17 April 2006 (UTC)"

The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/86.143.126.71 contributions of the anon in question] (26 reverts made in 67 minutes during Leyasu's current block) includes reverts to [[Children of Bodom]] and descendant articles (which Leyasu is currently blocked for reverting) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children_of_Bodom&diff=prev&oldid=48744212], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=SixPounder_-_Hate_Crew_Death_Roll&diff=prev&oldid=48750410] plus insulting edit summaries accompanying reverts to various metal articles which state "''remove garbage''" and in four cases "''rmv more garbage by ryoga''" - 2 examples: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Load_%28album%29&diff=prev&oldid=48751359], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ace_of_Spades_%28album%29&diff=prev&oldid=48751941], none of which make great reading.

I have never been personally involved in a revert war with Leyasu, indeed a look at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Metal]] will show how hard I have tried to work with them. This is also a report (not an accusation by me) on behalf of a newer user who has been severely bitten. As I write Ryouga has just this minute informed me on [[User talk:Deiz|my talk page]] of more reverts to his edits with the same familiar hallmarks, this time by [[User:86.132.129.203]]. This resulting diff [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrator_intervention_against_vandalism&diff=48771166&oldid=48770726] from [[WP:AIV]] is also interesting.

Reported by: [[User:Deiz|<b><span style="color: #000000; font-family: verdana;">Dei</span><span style="color: #FF3300">zio</span></b>]] 00:44, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

: The issue has been dealt with already, and i have sorted the problem with Ryouga myself [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Ryouga#Listed] after already explaining elsehwere the conditions of my violation, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism&diff=prev&oldid=48771166]. I also requested for an extension to my block from the admin that served my 48 hour block [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Ryouga#Listed] as is required by my violation. I also pointed out before that this is a one off to stem an all out flame war before it began, and that i already forsaw my extended ban and am willing to endure it to keep flame wars from even happening on Wikipedia. As such i ask this notice be stricken on the basis of the reasoning for violation. [[User:86.132.133.113|86.132.133.113]] 00:59, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

:: I was a little uncertain on what to do when this began, so I did report the user. Currently we are amidst working this out so I just want to report that currently the issue is no longer serious. Thank you for understanding. --[[User:Ryouga|Ryouga]] 01:03, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

::: Either way, the block that [[User:Ryan Delaney|Ryan Delaney]] set was still evaded by the IP address.  Not only that, the IP address violated the 1RR set in Leyasu's arbcom case [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children_of_Bodom&diff=prev&oldid=48774995] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Children_of_Bodom&diff=prev&oldid=48887464].  So if the current block is being evaded, it should still be extended and applied to both Leyasu and the IP address, perhaps after we have done a CheckUser to confirm that it's Leyasu posting from that IP address (it's not fair to Leyasu if it's an impostor, for example).  But since I was a party in the arbcom case, I think someone else should set the block, if it's necessary to set one (which, it would be, if Leyasu and 86.132.133.113 are the same user).  I don't know if Ryouga has necessarily been baiting Leyasu to violate the ruling; if he has, then he should probably also be blocked. --[[User:Idont Havaname|Idont Havaname]] ([[User talk:Idont Havaname|Talk]]) 21:05, 17 April 2006 (UTC)


==[[User:Instantnood]]==
{{User|Instantnood}} is under Arbitration Committee sanction for revert warring consisting of spelling and POV-reorganizations.  The final decision in their case is here: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Instantnood_3#Final_decision]

Instantnood has continued his revert wars on a daily basis. Beyond just staring new edit wars, he continues to resurrect old ones from previous months - exactly the behavior the Arbcom sanctioned him for.

;The following diffs show the offending behavior:
*[[:Category:Chinese universities]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Chinese_universities&diff=48732150&oldid=48731886], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Chinese_universities&diff=48729399&oldid=48726436], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Chinese_universities&diff=48725358&oldid=46229391]
*These should be seen as the same edits: [[:Category:Universities in Hong Kong]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Universities_in_Hong_Kong&diff=48725065&oldid=46310020] and [[:Category:Universities in Macau]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Universities_in_Macau&diff=48725144&oldid=37702516]
::This is a POV re-organization of the categories  This is his fourth attempt to re-organize this (Chinese universities) category against consensus: January 2006 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Chinese_universities&diff=35154433&oldid=31127948], July 2005 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Chinese_universities&diff=18872783&oldid=18872579], March 2005 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Chinese_universities&diff=10944567&oldid=10944345].  The other two categories have similar histories of his aborted attempts to re-organize them.
::Final decision: "those placed on Probation in this matter be banned from an article where they are engaged in edit warring, removal of sourced material, POV reorganizations of the article or any other activity which the user considers disruptive"  This is directly edit warring, disruptive, and a POV re-organization.

*[[List of China administrative divisions by population]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_China_administrative_divisions_by_population&diff=48711477&oldid=47950493]
::Reversion of three other editors so far.  Not quite a "war", but particularly troublesome in the POV pushing aspect of it by his insistence that Hong Kong isn't part of China. 
::Final decision: "those placed on Probation in this matter be banned from an article where they are engaged in edit warring, removal of sourced material, POV reorganizations of the article or any other activity which the user considers disruptive"  This is directly disruptive, and a POV re-organization.
*[[Estádio Campo Desportivo]], '''90% of all article edits are reverts by or against Instantnood''' over the inclusion of "China" after Macau.
::This is directly related to the findings of fact in the case "Instantnood has continued to edit war regarding naming issues." 

;Summation:
:I'd like to request that he be page banned, per the Arbcom sanction, from these articles/categories.
:This weekend has actually been particularly troublesome in Instantnood's edit wars.  I chose these as an assortment, not a laundry list.  If an admin went through his last two days worth of edits they would see a troublesome reflection of disruption to Wikipedia.

Reported by: [[User:SchmuckyTheCat|SchmuckyTheCat]] 20:29, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

:<p>The edits made to the universities category was instead to restore undicussed POV reorganisation by user:SchmuckyTheCat and user:Huaiwei. Nobody insists that Hong Kong and Macao are not part of the People's Republic of China. Quite the opposite, I explicitly acknowledge the fact that they're, according to Article 1 in their basic laws, "'' inalienable part[s] of the People's Republic of China'' ". The disputed matter was that whether they're administrative divisions. User:SchmuckyTheCat should have made all these clear upon filing this request, and should not provide inaccurate or even false information, which might affect administrators' decisions.</p><p>As for the edits to the article on the stadium (Estádio Campo Desportivo), cf. user:Jiang's comment at [[talk:Hong Kong Time#my edits|#1]], [[talk:Hong Kong Time#Hong Kong, China|#2]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hong_Kong_Time&action=history&offset=20060322210800&limit=11&dir=prev #3]. It's also related to Macao's status, i.e. whether or not it's an administrative division and/or an ordinary subnational entity.</p> &mdash; [[User:Instantnood|Insta]][[User_talk:Instantnood|ntnood]] 21:07, 16 April 2006 (UTC)



===Article editing bans on Instantnood===
Because of Instantnood's recent disruptive editing, I'm implementing the following article bans under remedy 3 "Instantnood placed on Probation" and enforcement measure 1 ("Procedure for banning in Probation") of [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Instantnood 3]].  As is my usual practice with arbitration bans, I am making limited term bans rather than the full probation term bans that are permitted under the arbitration ruling.

* [[List of bridges]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[Macao, China]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[Hong Kong national football team]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[District Council of Hong Kong]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[Guangzhou]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[Community of Portuguese Language Countries]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[East Asian Tigers]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[I'm lovin' it]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006

The message is that Instantnood is still far too aggressive in his edits and he needs to revert less, discuss more and respect other people's opinions. --[[User talk:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway]] 14:18, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

:I expanded this ban and blocked for 48h for violating it; see [[User talk:Instantnood]]. Other admin opinions are wanted. [[User:Ashibaka|Ashibaka]] <small>[[User talk:Ashibaka|tock]]</small> 03:37, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
For reference, Ashibaka's bans dealt on 24 Apr 2006:
* [[Las Vegas Sands]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[Share taxi]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[Estádio Campo Desportivo]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006
* [[Douhua]] two weeks, ban ends 14:00 UTC 6 May, 2006

==[[User:Beckjord]]==
[[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Beckjord]] states that Beckjord is banned from Wikipedia for one year, and is also prohibited from editing [[Bigfoot]] and related articles. However, when the case closed. Beckjord clearly stated that he does not intend to abide by the decision [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=prev&diff=38591090&title=Wikipedia%3ARequests_for_arbitration%2FBeckjord], and has continued to edit in violation of his ban.

Now, some of these edits contain edit summaries stating that he will never cease and that no one on Wikipedia, not even Jimbo Wales, has the right to oppose him, just because of his claimed "expertise" in Bigfoot. This is contrary to many policies, including [[WP:OWN]], [[WP:AGF]], [[WP:NPOV]], [[WP:NOR]], [[WP:NPA]], among others. I have two points to make here:
*Why hasn't Beckjord's ban timer been reset?
*Given that Beckjord has openly opposed any "authority" on Wikipedia other than himself, doesn't this warrant a hard ban (per {{vandal|Irate}})?

*Adding timestamp so this will be archived properly. [[User talk:Thatcher131|Thatcher131 (talk)]] 16:48, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

:'''Comment''' The IP address 205.208.227.46 is a proxy run by '''safepages.com''' and is in the same range as 205.208.227.49, another safepages.com proxy that appeared to be Beckjord's main IP address as described at [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Beckjord/Evidence#Using sockpuppet accounts for dubious reasons]]. I agree that these edits are highly characteristic of Beckjord. (The other IPs are AOL. I did not consider them because the safepages evidence is good enough.

:The timer has now been reset.  The ArbCom ruling is being enforced by a number of administrators insofar as the edits in question being reverted.  He uses AOL for some of his edits; if you feel AOL will give you the time of day if you contact them, you could try arguing that he might be violating [http://about.aol.com/aolnetwork/aolcom_terms AOL's terms of service] by continuing to edit at a site where he has been formally asked not to do so... "unauthorized use of a computer network", perhaps?  But frankly that would be unlikely to get any result. -- [[User:Curps|Curps]] 08:09, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

==[[User:Ultramarine]]==
:''Transferred  from WP:ANI, removals of sourced material still continuing.''
 
I request enforcement of [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Ultramarine]], which applies only to [[Democratic peace theory]] and one other article. This single editor has been consistently removing sourced statements, despite protests. Some of the material in question has been defended by multiple editors.(See [[Talk:Democratic peace theory/Archive 5#1]]. This practice was expressly deprecated by ArbCom; which  required that we edit by consensus, without establishing private versions.

That these edits also suppress the majority of the work done in support of DPT in favor of three scholars who uphold an extreme position, and also criticism of that position, is, I suppose, merely a coincidence. 

Previous removals:

***False, these and many other arguments for the theory added.[[User:Ultramarine|Ultramarine]] 15:39, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Septentrionalis seems to think he owes the article and that he decides the content. His version is selectively including mostly very old studies as a [[straw man]] for the theory. While excluding recent supporting research, see [[User:Ultramarine/sandbox5]]. It was Septentrionalis who started doing edits again after Salix Alba asked for a slow-down, and yesterday he did a massive revert of many carefully explained changes. The article needs to be trimmed from excessive details from irrelevant studies done in the 70s and 80s, which also Salix Alba agrees on. However, since Septentrionalis resists this, I have now only added the recent research. As this recent research is the by far the best documented advantage of [[democracy]], documenting the role of democracy in preventing wars, mass murder, and human rights violations, it is important that Wikipedia represents the current status correctly.
*I have never claimed ownership of anything. Removal of sourced statements of fact without consensus is deprecated, and is a violation of the ArbCom decision in this case. Ultramarine's additions are (while it will take some time to look at them), welcome. [[User:Pmanderson|Septentrionalis]] 15:34, 8 April 2006 (UTC)   
*Ultramarine has, as in the example above, been removing sources from the 1990's. The common element is not their age, but that they disagree with the three authors he chooses to support. Ultramarine claims below to be increasing the diversity of the sources by these removals; this is bizarre. [[User:Pmanderson|Septentrionalis]] 15:26, 8 April 2006 (UTC) 

My general point is that views of most researchers and their studies and arguments are not farily represented. It should also be noted that Septentrionalis has on several other articles constantly tried to exclude well-sourced advantages of democracy and related research. See for example this, where he deletes every sourced advantage of liberal democracy while keeping many claimed unsourced disadvantages.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Liberal_democracy&diff=45141465&oldid=45116640] Or this, where he completely deletes the painstakingly made table regarding world-wide democracy from [[Freedom House]].[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Freedom_House&diff=45886172&oldid=45378579]
*[[Freedom House]], like several of Ultramarine's other edits, is a collection of cut-and-pastes. Most of the paragraphs are taken directly from various pages on FH's website. This is plagiarism, even where it is not copyvio. [[User:Pmanderson|Septentrionalis]] 15:26, 8 April 2006 (UTC) 
Regarding Septentrionalis only supporter, Robert A '''West''', he is real-world friend or relative of Septentrionalis. See their extensive collaborative editing of numerous '''[[Baron West]]''' and [[Earl De La Warr]]. They have extremely deep knowledge about this particular aristocratic family. [[User:Ultramarine|Ultramarine]] 15:06, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
*''Only supporter'' is a falsehood; almost all the editors who has looked at the article have remarked on Ultramarine's PoV. Scaife objects to it more than I do (See [[Talk:Democratic peace theory/Archive 5#35]]. 
**He has not supported you for a long time now.[[User:Ultramarine|Ultramarine]] 15:39, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
***Scaife has taken a break from the article for reasons stated in his talk page.  Several editors have ceased attempting to edit after finding the experience of Ultramarine's POV-pushing frustrating.  That is not good for the project.[[User:Robert A West|Robert A.West]] ([[User talk:Robert A West|Talk]]) 16:31, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
*Ultramarine has made this portentous statemtent before. Does this have a point? What offense is he suggesting? (A question he has never bothered to answer.) Btw, the "extremely deep knowledge" consists of comparing the standard sources. [[User:Pmanderson|Septentrionalis]] 15:26, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
**Ultramarine is repeatedly speculating about the real names and relationships of two demonstrably distinct editors.  So far as I know, collaboration is not forbidden, it is encouraged.  I saw no pledge to avoid working with friends (or relatives for that matter) when I joined.

Septentrionalis absolutely does not want the readers to see and judge for themselves the pro-DPT arguments regarding possible wars.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Democratic_peace_theory&diff=47718928&oldid=47717852] He always deletes even links in the main text to the article about the book ''[[Never at War]]'' so that readers should not be able to see the pro-DPT arguments.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Democratic_peace_theory&diff=47612942&oldid=47594977] See also [[User:Salix alba/History of conflict between democracies]].

His version almost exclusively mentions old supporting studies, many of them from the 70s and 80s, as a [[straw man]] and critical arguments without mentioning the counter-arguments. As this recent research on the democratic peace is the by far the best documented advantage of [[democracy]], documenting the role of democracy in preventing wars, mass murder, and human rights violations, it is important that Wikipedia represents the current status correctly.[[User:Ultramarine|Ultramarine]] 22:33, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

::with the editing that's been going on at [[Democratic peace theory]] which is a fairly unilateral series of edits carried out by [[User:Ultramarine|Ultramarine]].

:::The finding of fact in the arbcom decision was the maintaining of two separate and parallel versions which was reverted between. This is not the the case now. I will not again participate in having two separate and parallel versions. This was a mistake and the arbcom decision successfully prevents this. I think that the recent edits have created a much more correct article without having two different version. So I think that the arbcom decision has been very successful.
 
:::I think that if you examine the edits since I started edited the article again, there has not been sterile edit wars. Instead numerous findings from recent studies has been added, adding the view of the majority of the researchers in this field. Something Pmanderson almost completely ignored in the text he had created during several months of unilateral editing and which selectively described the view of the critics. So there has not been sterile wars, but instead a constructive improvement, adding the view of the other side. Again, the maintaining of two separate and parallel versions was a mistake, which I regret. However, this is not the case now and I think that if the recent edits are examined it will be found that the article has been improved by also adding the view of the other side.

I request enforcement of [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/RJII v. Firebug]]

*RJII has been trying to repeatedly force through the same point and content into [[An Anarchist FAQ]]. He continues making aggressive and tendentious edits such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=An_Anarchist_FAQ&diff=47578104&oldid=47556703] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=An_Anarchist_FAQ&diff=47294282&oldid=47293961]. Various users have explained why his view and edits are POV. However, he refuses to acknowledge their input, instead repeatedly making the same arguments which have already been responded to. For example, his comments at [[Talk:An Anarchist FAQ#Anarchist writers]] and [[Talk:An Anarchist FAQ#Editors]] say exactly the same thing.
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:An_Anarchist_FAQ&diff=47149215&oldid=47148046] - [[User:Aryah]] tells RJII the FAQ is open.

:This kid has been trying desperately to get me banned from Wikipedia, just because he doesn't like my edits. He's been harrassing me, and even stalking me to articles he doesn't even edit to delete my edits simply because they are mine (he even admitted it [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AInfinity0&diff=47593081&oldid=47575440]), so I can't even avoid him if I try. He knows I'm on probation (which in my opinion, I should not be on --the arbitrators are apparently over-worked and didn't take the time to verify the charges against me), and so as a result he has been trying to take advantage of that probation (especially the vague "tendentious editing" probation). He's making claims of "tendentious editing" and POV hoping that administrators will see that I'm on probation, assume I'm the bad guy and give him the benefit of the doubt. Please do not fall for it. I am, and have always been, dedicated to providing sourceable information and writing in an NPOV manner; I'm even more careful about it now that I'm on probation. He's posted to the Administrator's Noticboard/Incidents several times to try to get me banned. This is just an extension of edit warring on his part. Instead of dealing with the sourced information I bring to the table that conflicts with his POV, he resorts to trying to take advantage of my probation, and the prejudice it tends to create in a person's mind about me when they see that I'm on probation, to try to get me banned. He's extremely unethical. Thanks for taking the time to understand. [[User:RJII|RJII]] 02:23, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

:Also, note that I am banned from editing the Administrator's noticeboard for 3 months. This is a result of me defending myself against similar charges from infinity0. It's inexplicable why I was banned from there by Essjay. All I can think of is he saw I was on probation and, from that, assumed I was the bad guy and should not be allowed to respond to the harrassment from infinity0. Or maybe he thinks I got a little too heated in my defense. Go figure. But, I am tired of being harrassed by infinity0. [[User:RJII|RJII]] 02:38, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

:Actually, I banned you from ANI after consulting with quite a few other admins; you were disruptively commenting all over the noticeboard. You then proceeded to make personal attacks against myself and several others, and a two week general ban was applied. I moved this report here in good faith, under the assumption that you'd learned your lesson and would follow the rules; instead, I'm rewarded with further attacks on my character.

RJII, you think you are without fault. You are on probation for a reason. I report you for many reasons. I have made this request based on things you have done, not things you have not done. You have repeatedly turned around my criticisms onto me. Stop acting like you are the victim. You have been very aggressive on many articles you edit, and it is impossible to build consensus with you. You ignore other editors' comments, not just mine, and you carry along editing the article as you see fit without taking into account even remotely the possibility that your edits are bad. You need to correct this attitude. -- [[User:Infinity0|<span style="color:red;">infinity</span>]]'''[[User_talk:Infinity0|<span style="color:red;">0</span>]]''' 10:24, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Just for the record, I must say that I agree with most of RJII edits on the “An Anarchist FAQ”.

== [[User:Cantus]] ==

''(copied from original entry placed, unwittingly, at [[WP:AN]])''

Earlier, the above noted user – [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Cantus (contributions)] – was [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Cantus 3|sanctioned and restricted by the ArbCom]].  However, Cantus persists in:
* editing articles (recently) from which C. is banned: e.g., [[developed country]];
* editing articles or insinuating changes into them without discussion or edit summaries, or labelling corrections as rvv: e.g., [[List of countries by GDP (PPP)]], [[List of countries by population]];
* over the course of weeks, reverting to prior article versions that adhere to some ineffable personal standard and without justification: e.g. [[List of countries by GDP (PPP)]], [[List of countries by total area]] 
* moving articles to prior locales – viz. [[List of countries and outlying territories by area]]/[[List of countries by total area]] – being warned about ''carte blanche'' changes, and (recently, in response) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_countries_by_total_area&diff=49554733&oldid=49553741 rehashing my warning and taunting me with an arguable personal attack] (e.g., I'm not sanctioned and have not been, as C. has noted)

As an editor of some of these articles, and not necessarily a policeman of them, I find Cantus' behaviour wholly frustrating and counterproductive.  And, despite prior sanction and warnings, it doesn't seem that Cantus is either willing or able to modify his behaviour.  I request that this editor's behaviour be reviewed and, as prescribed in the ArbCom ruling, that some corrective actions be taken; <s>in the very least, the article recently moved (point 4) should be returned to its prior locale.</s>''(NOTE: I believe this has been dealt with for now.)''  Thanks.  [[User:E Pluribus Anthony|E Pluribus Anthony]] | [[User talk:E Pluribus Anthony|''talk'']] | 06:21, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

April 22, 2006, {{admin|Heah}} and {{admin|Jacoplane}} blocked Cantus for editing [[Developed country]] while banned.  A difference over the block duration was resolved, and the block stood at 24 hours. --[[User talk:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway]] 13:26, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

In my personal opinion this editor's behavior probably merit closer study with a view to further corrective action. --[[User talk:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway]] 13:28, 22 April 2006 (UTC)


===Sockpuppetry===

During this block, the following anon IPs have reverted articles (and selectively, I might add) to versions supported solely by the above user and without discussion nor consensus (but ''with'' summaries):
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=200.120.183.182 200.120.183.182]
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=200.120.180.45 200.120.180.45]

I believe these are sockpuppets of this user ... for which [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Cantus_3#Sockpuppets_and_reverts|C. was also sanctioned by the ArbCom regarding (remedy 4)]].  This is untenable.  I'm unsure how to proceed; however, this behaviour – which I'm led to believe is all from same user and not just coincidence – requires further investigation and that added corrective measures be contemplated if necessary.  Thanks. [[User:E Pluribus Anthony|E Pluribus Anthony]] | [[User talk:E Pluribus Anthony|''talk'']] | 04:48, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

{{User|RK}} is currently under several restrictions for 12 months following Apr 7 2005, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/RK_2#Remedies  These restrictions include “''RK is limited to one revert per twenty-four hour period on material directly or indirectly related to Jews and/or Judaism for a period of twelve months, with violations treated as violations of the three-revert rule and also resetting the twelve-month period. Determing what is directly or indirectly related shall be left to the discretion of the administrators.''" Another restriction he is under is "''RK is placed on standard personal attack parole for twelve months. If he makes any edits which are judged by an administrator to be personal attacks, then he shall be temp-banned for a short time of up to one week, and the twelve month period shall be reset.''". 

He has violated these restrictions and has had his 12 month period reset on December 23, 2005 see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive58#User_RK


On January 15, 2006 he violated those restrictions again and was blocked for 4 days and had his 12 month period reset. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive66#User_RK

On May 25, 2006 he violated these restrictions again and was blocked for 3 days and his 12 month ban reset. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Arbitration_enforcement#RK

He has now violated the no personal attacks section with [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Talmud&diff=prev&oldid=62300785 this edit] by saying that about a new editor who was probably not aware of any wikipedia policies "There is more than a small chance that he may (literally) be suffering from psychosis...clinical sign of mental disturbace...mental disturbance" and although he edited it in the next edit to just say "emotional disorder" that still constitutes as a personal attack.

This is his 5th violaton, I am therefore blocking him for one week and reseting the 12 month period. --[[User:PinchasC|PinchasC]] | [[User_talk:PinchasC|<small>£€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€</small>]] 03:22, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

As is {{User|Zapatancas}}. Are you also {{User|Hagiographer}}? i believe you are and urge the arbcom to investigate and do a check user test as if he is Hagiographer he clearly is breaking the arbcom final decision.

== Suspecion of sock puppettry ==

I believe that [[User:Skanking]] is a sock puppet of SqueakBox. It was created in April, when the case against SqueakBox had already been posted. His user page is very similar to that of SqueakBox and so are his edits, related to subject like Honduras [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Honduras] or La Ceiba [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=La_Ceiba&diff=prev&oldid=50781371] or Zapatero [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jos%C3%A9_Luis_Rodr%C3%ADguez_Zapatero&diff=prev&oldid=62021589]. He probably created it to avoid the one month ban imposed on him by the arbitration committee. The message below (Ras Bily is the sign of [[User:Skanking]]), posted in the arbitration enforcemente although it does not belong here as I'm not affected by any arbcom decision adds aditional evidence. Why is he so coordinated with SqueakBox? [[User:Hagiographer|Hagiographer]] 16:16, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Hagiographer has vandalised SqueakBox thrice [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:SqueakBox&oldid=63618422] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:SqueakBox&oldid=63616875] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:SqueakBox&oldid=63619531] and keeps altering another users comments on the Zapatero page. Can someone get him to stop? [[User:Skanking|Ras Billy I]] 15:59, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Absolute paranoia by this strange user. I am not SqueakBox, he got on my watchlist today because he left me a message ages back and I spotted that Hagiographer was persistently vandalising Squeak's user page. because I revetrted him he calls me Squeak's sockpuppet. How daft. And his insinuation that only Squeak would want to edit Honduras articles is frankly insulting to a Central American like myself, as if only gringos would want to or have the right to edit pages on Central America and Honduras, a country I know well being from Belize and working on the boats when I were a young man, thus knowing Ceiba where I had a girlfriend and many sweet memories. This guy Hagiographer really seems to have a problem, makes me for one not want to have anything to do with wikipedia again. Its only a bit of fun but this guy seems seriously enloquecido and I dont want to be dealing with a peligroso, siendo ya viejo. If Hagiographer doesnt want his behaviour commented on he should not have edited here in the first place. Any fool can he see he is a zapatancas sockpuppet only created to harrass squeakbox. yuck! [[User:Skanking|Ras Billy I]] 18:28, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Fuinally I would add that were I the sockpuppet of squeakbox I would not have revealed myself to repair squeak's page, he could have done that himself. It would make no sense if I were his sockpuppet to reveal myself. But it seems that logic isnt Zapatancas strongpoint, suele ser con los hablantes de ese idioma.

SPUI just lost the 3rd go 'round on {{lc|Limited-access roads}}.  Never-the-less, s/he just changed the definition to match the failed CfD.  And has reverted contrary to the outcome, as clearly indicated on [[Category talk:Limited-access roads]].

The relisting was recently closed by another independent party, {{User|Kbdank71}}, with exactly the same result.

I request a block of at least two (2) months with no possibility of parole, as I see that blocks of days and weeks have happened in the recent past, but been alleviated by his friends among the administrators.

{{User|Guy Montag}} is under [[Wikipedia:Probation]] for one year, effective per 9 October 2005.  The final decision in their case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Yuber#Guy_Montag_placed_on_probation]].

Unilateral renaming of article and massive rewriting such as to reflect a more positive view for Israel. Vote on moving back showed clear lack of consensus for the move ([[Talk:Battle_of_Deir_Yassin#Requested move|12-15 (44.4%) with 3 rename to a different name, effectively 50-50 split on keeping it at the new name]]), including [[Talk:Battle_of_Deir_Yassin#Clarification|vote staking]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Leifern&diff=prev&oldid=63441574 opposed], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Moshe_Constantine_Hassan_Al-Silverburg&diff=prev&oldid=63432051 opposed], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:IZAK&diff=prev&oldid=63440858 opposed], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Crzrussian&diff=prev&oldid=63544296 opposed], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Irongaard&diff=prev&oldid=63825645 opposed], all voted against moving back.

::Guy Montag moved the article from his commonly known name to [[Battle of Deir Yassin]], and rewrote it substantially. This rewrite is contested by several knowledgable editors, see for example  [[Talk:Battle_of_Deir_Yassin#Total_Rewrite]], [[Talk:Battle_of_Deir_Yassin#Battle???]] for discussion and poll for more opinions. This shows a clearly inappropriate editing and renaming of the article, which is not based on consensus, and therefore he can be bannned '''[[Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Yuber#Guy_Montag_placed_on_probation|from any article which relates to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict which he disrupts by inappropriate editing]]'''. 

;Summation: 
Guy Montag should be banned from the [[Deir Yassin Massacre]] article, and the unilateral move should be undone due to lack of consensus for that move and votestaking. As I started the vote to get an idea if the unilateral move was supporeted by the community, I feel another admin should review the case and close the vote.

{{User|SPUI}} is under Arbitration Committee sanction of some sort.  The final decision in their case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Highways]].

For the past several weeks, s/he has been edit warring over Ontario provincial highways.  S/he lost a CfD on renaming its related category, re-listed, and lost again.  Ensuing signs of extreme embitterment.

Today, s/he is at 3 reverts, all with the edit summary including "crap".  
#''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_Ontario_provincial_highways&diff=64605524&oldid=64590507  revert crap - READ THE LAW MORE CAREFULLY]''

#''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_Ontario_provincial_highways&diff=64663308&oldid=64662793  revert incorrect crap again]''

Likewise, at [[limited-access road]]s, every requested fact has been annotated, so that the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Limited-access_road&oldid=64680601 annotated page] is full of them, and yet SPUI persists in edit warring, covering the page with "original research" and "disputed" tags, and "citation needed" on <u>adjectives</u>, and <u>nouns</u>, all of which are well-covered in the references, or on the other articles that are linked.  Many of the edits deleted the references that respond to the tags.

#''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Limited-access_road&diff=64016236&oldid=63922845  revert inclusion of crap]''

#''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Limited-access_road&diff=64611785&oldid=64610714  more tags]''

These are all edit warring on highway pages, and involve incivility.

[[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Highways#Probation]]
<blockquote>
2.1) Should SPUI, JohnnyBGood, Rschen7754, and PHenry disrupt the editing of any article which concerns highways he or she may be banned by any administrator from that article or related articles. All bans are to be logged at [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Highways#Log of blocks and bans]].
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
7) JohnnyBGood and SPUI are warned to remain civil at all times; in particular, JohnnyBGood is reminded not to refer to good faith edits as vandalism. All participants in this dispute are encouraged to maintain a courteous atmosphere.
</blockquote>

;Summation:
After disputes that arose at CfD, where I was the closer, I became aware of the issue(s).  I did my best to resolve the conflict as an independent party, and thus became an involved party.  

These pages were fully annotated (by me) with legal and historical references.  Apparently, SPUI is some kind of wiki-lawyer, without formal legal experience.

I am not a member of the Canadian bar, but I'm reasonably sure that the usual common law and statutory construction still apply there.

I request a block of at least 1 month, as I see that blocks of days and weeks have happened in the recent past.

This is his third disruptive highway warring in the last week per the two cases below. He has already been warned to follow his probation on at least one previous occasion and has obviously not taken it to heart. I too am subject to the same probation and if he isn't required to follow the arbcom's decision then what is the point of Arbcom at all?

{{User|TDC}} is under Arbitration Committee revert parole.  The final decision in his case at [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Depleted uranium#TDC placed on revert parole]] was:

:"TDC is hereby limited to 1 content revert per article per day and must discuss all content reverts on the relevant talk page for one year. He may be briefly blocked for up to a week for violations. After 5 such blocks the maximum block time increases to a year."

On 24 July 2006, TDC reverted [[Depleted uranium]] twice within nine hours.  He has not discussed either revert on [[Talk:Depleted uranium]]. Moreover, during about the same time period he reverted [[Sandinista National Liberation Front]] three times.

:recreation of deleted material. The category Instantnood is reverting to was deleted - twice.  The category existed in a limbo state because CfD didn't delete it a year or so ago but it did not have a proper purpose co-existing with Companies of the PRC.  I noticed it's been empty for a while (two months based on what 'nood reverted to) so put an orphan tag on it. 'nood objected to the orphan delete, then re-created it after deletion, then it was nominated again, and deleted again by a different admin. So instead of recreating the category (which still had no articles), he restored the articles to the redlink category (presumably hoping someone else would click it and hit save?).

;Summation:
::These are the same edit wars he has been banned for before. Just different articles.  As I've claimed before, I think some of the long term ones are on a schedule.
::I was not involved in the move war.  I reverted the Newspaper categories.  I also reverted the company articles (because he put the articles in the category, but didn't recreate the category a third time).  I did not remove these articles from his preferred category in the first instance (but I'm sure I have done some similar companies in the past).

::''AfD is not the place to determine title issues. It deals only with whether articles should stay or should be removed.  The current RM does facilitate better and much more thorough discussion.'' To quote Ideogram's response in [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Current_events_in_Hong_Kong#Instantnood.27s_reverts]], ''Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy. Insisting on strict adherence to procedure in the face of obvious consensus is a waste of time. See [[WP:SNOW]]''. The current results and on-going discussions in the survey underscores this point exactly, as predicted.

::''I did not attempt to recreate the companies category. But rather, I was putting on the hangon tag, following the procedures stated on the template.'' The above diffs provided show no such behavior. We await to see your evidence.

::''The previous CfD clear demonstrates there was no consensus, and it's agreed on Wikipedia mainland China ≠ People's Republic of China (present effective extent of the People's Republic of China = mainland China + Hong Kong + Macao). There has never been any renomination to CfD.'' The gist of the issue was never over the definition of Mainland China, but over the use of the term Mainland China on the internatonal arena alongside that of other countries in the world. So how does an "agreement" on its definition signal any advancement in talks, or lend support to the re-creation of those disputed categories from out of the blue?

::''The category was simply depopulated, and was subsequently nominated to speedy deletion by someone who know well about what has been going on, presumably abusing the speedy tag to push forward his point of view.'' Without having to check the edit histories, I would not be too surprised if that category was created and populated by Instantnood, all actions of which were subsequently reverted. So if reverting your edits were considered "pushing a POV", I would like to know how the your original edits were ''not'' "pushing a POV"?

::''As for the newspapers categories, I've elaborated my position in details, and I have nothing to add. It was user:SchmuckyTheCat who demonstrated he was no longer interested to discuss, that he insists in his point of view.'' Point blank accusations do not work without supporting evidence, all the more so when up to this point, most of them were actually working against your favour. If you are willing to discuss, and do not insist on your point of view, then you wont see your name appearing on this list, would you?--[[User:Huaiwei|Huaiwei]] 21:09, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

:::re: hangon tag.  From my memory, I put on db-empty, it was deleted, 'Nood responded by recreating and putting on the hangon tag (fair enough, actually, speedy deletes should be reviewable, even post fact of deletion). But didn't remove the hangon tag when he was done (as it states you should). So he was able to put forth an argument against a speedy delete, and it was deleted again. His argument was heard and presumably considered. (and if he wants it reviewed again [[WP:DRV]].)
:::What is subterfuge and acting against policies, was then re-populating the category in the articles, but not actually re-creating the category.

Both SPUI and Rschen7754 need to stop.  SPUI got 31 hours for edit-warring, which was quite nice to SPUI, if I do say so myself.  While the infractions are not the same (SPUI edit-warred, while you did site-wide changes), but I find both just as disruptive.  You're nitpicking over the issue.  Since you can't move the articles, you're changing the terminology in links and within the article.  For everyone's sake, '''stop it.'''  I'm blocking Rschen7754 for 31 hours as per the precedent above, though I think both of you deserved 2-3 day blocks.  SPUI, if you revert during Rschen7754's block, I will block you without warning, and it'll certainly be for longer than 31 hours.  Rschen7754, if you continue these edits after your block, I will do the same.  [[User:Ral315|Ral315]] ([[User talk:Ral315|talk]]) 03:30, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

{{User|SPUI}} is under Arbitration Committee sanction of some sort.  The final decision in their case is here: [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Highways]].

[[Minnesota State Highway 33]] has 41 edits. 25% are reverts, including page moves. We have editors being chased off from WikiProjects. And we have good editors vandalizing pages. I suspect this page has been disrupted. Editors should not feel they  have to say any of [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ASPUI&diff=67323978&oldid=67117060 this] or do any of [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Minnesota_State_Highway_33&diff=67100556&oldid=67100288 this]. SPUI was involved in this and [[User talk:FLWfan|biting the newcomers]] as well.

I was involved in the ArbCom case but not in this specific dispute. But we have perfectly good editors being chased away from highways. This is simply not the Wiki way.

:Also we have edits like [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nevada_State_Route_601&diff=prev&oldid=67290931 this.] It appears that SPUI is following the letter of the law as opposed to the intent of the law. --'''[[User:Rschen7754|Rschen7754]] ([[User_talk:Rschen7754|talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Rschen7754|contribs]]) ''' 22:44, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[[User:SPUI]] did tone down his actions after the closure of the ArbCom case.  However, in recent weeks, he has exhibited behavior eerily similar to (and in some cases IMHO worse than) his behavior prior to the case.  Over the past two days, as part of [[WP:NJSCR]], I have been creating pages in my user-subpage sandboxes in an effort to elimate redlinks and close the browsing loop in our project.  Upon the moving of my pages from user space into article space, I then edited the infoboxes/succession boxes/etc. to include all articles and redirects -- for example [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=U.S._Route_46&diff=67352831&oldid=67104666 this edit] which includes routes S5 and 6A in the browse order.

*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_New_Jersey_State_and_County_Routes&diff=67355158&oldid=65495340 SPUI disagrees with my browse order and makes an alternative proposal.]
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_New_Jersey_State_and_County_Routes&diff=next&oldid=67355780 I attempt to defend my proposal, and point out my issues with his proposal.]
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_New_Jersey_State_and_County_Routes&diff=next&oldid=67356878 My argument "makes no sense", and SPUI starts implementing his plan despite my objection (thus no consensus).]

This is identical behavior to what SPUI has done in past disputes -- especially the routebox dispute at [[WP:CASH]] -- in which he would pretend to "seek consensus", and then in the face of objection, would implement his original plan anyway.

Also of grave concern is [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_numbered_highways_in_Ohio&diff=64281964&oldid=54638323 this edit] to [[List of numbered highways in Ohio]].  This is identical to [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_Washington_State_Routes&diff=45603580&oldid=45552339 this edit] to [[List of Washington State Routes]] in March; unilaterally changing a list of state routes to his preferred naming convention despite no attempt to seek consensus for that naming convention.  The edit to the Washington list resulted in a nasty revert war that lasted nearly a month, followed by page protection for a month and a half.

I would greatly appreciate some response from admins or the ArbCom on this issue. -- [[User:Northenglish|'''NORTH''']] <sup>[[User talk:Northenglish|talk]]</sup> 02:44, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

==Multiple reverts [[User:SPUI]]==
I'm quite concerned with how [[user:SPUI|SPUI]] handled his reverts of the [[List of Ohio State Highways]] page. I moved the page from [[List of numbered highways in Ohio]] for two reasons:
*The majority of state highway pages are in the ''List of {state} State Highway'' naming convention.
*''List of numbered highways in Ohio'' seems to be quite lengthy for something that should be short and to the point.

I'm aiming for uniformity here.

Instead of discussing the matter first, SPUI reverts a days worth of work on three pages, a template, and a main article page. I find this very unfair and unbecoming of a user who is still fighting his revert charges. 

Along with that, SPUI wishes to delete the [[Template:OH Highways]] page, which I had to painstakingly assemble (and was not even complete). His reasoning was not very clear at all. My reasonings for doing this was:
*Reduce the huge amount of clutter on [[List of numbered highways in Ohio]], which has a horribly dated design, non-user friendly interface, and is not uniform with other state highway projects.
*Seperate the [[List of numbered highways in Ohio]] page into [[List of Interstate Highways in Ohio]], [[List of U.S. Highways in Ohio]] and [[List of State Highways in Ohio]] to conform with other state highway projects, such as [[West Virginia State Highways]]. This reduces the main page clutter and page size, and presents the user with an easier navigating interface.

I'm trying for some uniformity here, much as what SPUI is asking for the route/highway designations. Instead of seeing this, he reverted it, undid all of my work and other user contributions, and is taking all of this one big step back for the sake of having "his way" once again.

::[[user:SPUI|SPUI]] has struck again with the vandalism at [[List of Routes in Vermont]]. I categorized the page into Interstates, U.S. Routes, and State Routes, with a sub for Decommissioned and Named Routes. This cleaned up the page considerably, since the old format was cluttered, unreadable, and very... spartan. It was a dated design and non-user friendly, and this puts the page in compliance with other state highway projects. See my original comment just above.

It would seem that permanently banned user {{User|Leyasu}}[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Leyasu] has returned once more under a sockpuppet. This time as {{user|VandalismCorrecter}}. The edits have all the hallmarks[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Suspected_Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Leyasu] of a Leyasu sockpuppet, spercifically targeting [[Gothic metal]] related articles, since their sign-up on [[11 August]] [[2006]].[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=VandalismCorrecter]

The user also uses [[Wikipedia]] terminology in the edit summaries[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/VandalismCorrecter]Rather suspicous for a user who has just signed up today, couple that with the fact the reverts the user is making (all [[Gothic metal]] related articles) isn't of vandalism, as the handle might suggest.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/VandalismCorrecter] Infact the first edit the user made was reverting an article to a version by a previously banned sockpuppet of Leyasu[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gothic_metal&action=history].

They also removed a suspected sock tag, which was placed on their page, and marked it down as "vandalism". [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:VandalismCorrecter&diff=69284307&oldid=69251250] - [[User:Deathrocker|Deathrocker]] 22:44, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

:I have followed the this users contributions to this page. I have added refrences to several articles, have been working on articles that have add a pov banner on them, and have worked on articles that have had nothing to do with gothic metal.

:This users problems with me seemed to have arose after i reverted a vandalistic blanking of a page which they performed. I don't know the argument between this user, or the user he/she is referring to, nor do i wish to be part of their argument.

:I ask the user kindly to not vandalise articles by blanking, or vandalise my user page, an action which this user has redone.

:I am under the impression this user seems to dislike working with others, or having others views represented. The article in which i changed was for poor grammer and wording, and vague comments. I reworded them to make them easier to understand, an action i have performed on many articles in the past.

:I have been using Wikipedia long enough to know what Vandalism is, mostly from reading what a user posted on my discussion page. From what i understand, maliciously deleting segments of an article is Vandalism, an action which this user, Deathrocker, performed.

:I am only here to make my side of things clear. I hope this is taken into consideration in light of this user's very one sided view to his/her peers. VandalismCorrector.

No "vandalism" or "blanking" has occured on my part. 

I removed this edit[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gothic_metal&diff=69245616&oldid=69244846] by the suspected sockpuppet of the blocked user, based on all of their other Gothic metal related contributions and the fact that it was reverted to the last version by Leyasu.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gothic_metal&action=history] 

And then placed the suspected sock tag on their userpage. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:VandalismCorrecter&diff=69290640&oldid=69245967]. This was done, '''36 minutes''' before the user had ever reverted me on [[Gothic metal]][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gothic_metal&diff=69290484&oldid=69251399], or at all under their current handle. - [[User:Deathrocker|Deathrocker]] 23:27, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

''Here is a list of edit examples, made my "{{user|VandalismCorrecter}}" that mirror behaviour of permanently banned user {{User|Leyasu}}, particually the labelling of good faith edits by users as "vandalism/blanking" on Gothic metal related articles.''

'''1'''. Here VC reverts an edit made by {{user|Amaya215}} on the [[Poisonblack]] article.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Poisonblack&diff=prev&oldid=69245900] In the edit summary VC states "''Reverted blanking by anon.''" when infact there is no blanking to be seen in the other users edit, the only difference is the inclusion of the word "Gothic-Doom" instead of just [[Gothic metal]].[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Poisonblack&diff=prev&oldid=69245900]

'''2'''. Here VC reverts an edit made by {{user|YurikBot}} on the [[To/Die/For]] article.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=To/Die/For&diff=prev&oldid=69245682] Once again with the edit summary of "''Reverted blanking by anon.''" and once again the only difference between the edits are one says "Gothic-Doom" as the genre, the other just says "Gothic metal".[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=To/Die/For&diff=prev&oldid=69245682]

'''3'''. Here VC reverts an edit made by {{user|LuciferMorgan}} on the [[For My Pain...]] article.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=For_My_Pain...&diff=prev&oldid=69246057] once again "''Reverted blanking by anon''" in the edit summary and the only change between the too is "Gothic-Doom" inplace of "Gothic metal" as the genre.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=For_My_Pain...&diff=prev&oldid=69246057]

'''4'''. Here VC reverts an edit made by {{user|YurikBot}} on the [[Always...]] article. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Always...&diff=prev&oldid=69246288], same "''Reverted blanking by anon''" edit summary as the others and the only difference is a change of genre from Doom/Death to Gothic metal[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Always...&diff=prev&oldid=69246288]

'''5'''. Here VC reverts an edit made by {{user|Tokus}} on the [[Autumn (band)]] article.[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Autumn_%28band%29&diff=prev&oldid=69250456].

1. I reverted blankings by an anon, that happened before the user. This was stated before, as the anon had blanked a large number of articles, similar to what Deathrocker had done before starting this sherade. I have had no connection to the user Deathrocker is claiming i reverted.

2. Once again, i was reverting a blanking by an anon that came before the other users edit. As there had been multiple edits since that point, i was forced to do it in pieces. Deathrocker has chosen to manipulate links to show what he wants, which is easily disproven by looking at the articles history page.

3.4.5.6. Once again, the user has manipulated links. If the articles edit historys are checked, i made several edits on all the articles in pieces, against an ip adress that had blanked sections before.

I do not understand why this user Deathrocker is attacking me for reverting them after they blanked an article, or why they feel they must manipulate links and lie to get me into some form of amendment for actions i have not even performed. Despite this, checking our contributions and the mentioned articles history pages reveals a very different story to what this user is saying.

I find it also notable that from looking at this users contributions, that they seem to not work well with their peers. The Aiden article has seen large amounts of reverts of any edit, minor and large, by Deathrocker, whenever somebody made an edit that deleted or reestablised sections that this user added or removed.

I still do not wish to be part of whatever argument this user has against working with others, and i once again ask this user to just leave me in piece and to stop harrasing me and other users for reverting them when they maliciously blank sections of an article. VandalismCorrecter.

:VandalismCorrecter, if you feel that other users are "manipulating links" to make a case against you, you might find it beneficial to your case if you provided some links of your own.  Unfortunately, you cannot, because I have checked the histories of the articles in question, and there is not a single blanking edit that I can find that you have reverted. -- [[User:Northenglish|'''NORTH''']] <sup>[[User talk:Northenglish|talk]]</sup> 21:02, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

The edits i reverted where from a string i followed. I found an ip adress that had blanked the gothic metal article some time ago. I followed their user contributions and checked up on several articles history. I found in many of the articles that partial reverts had been done. Because of this, and valuable edits made after the lost information, i slavaged the lost information and replaced it in its former place.

Would you also be so kind as to explain how i may post my own links, as i am not overly educated in the use of html code. Thank you. VandalismCorrecter.


==[[User:Terryeo]]==
{{User|Terryeo}} is under Arbitration Committee sanction with regard to Scientology-related articles.  He is banned from editing those articles, and on probation with regard to disruptive behavior on talk pages, where he remains an active contributor. The final decision in their case is here: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Terryeo/Proposed_decision].  I was one of numerous editors who provided testimony to the ArbCom.

I have had some positive exchanges with Terryeo recently, so am reluctant to point this out, but this recent bit of talk page disruption is so egregious that I believe he should, at least, receive a reminder from an adminstrator that what he is doing is not acceptible. On [[Image_talk:Superpowerbldg.jpg]] (his is the very first post on the page), Terryeo blatantly misrepresents a copyrightholder's release so as promote his contention that Wikipedia is biased against Scientology.

The image author, Andreas Heldal-Lund, who runs the "Xenu.net" website,  writes on his site: "Critics of the Church of Scientology (CoS), including Wikipedia which is NPOV, are free to use images and text on this site that are made by me if proper credits are given."

Terryeo wrote on [[Image_talk:Superpowerbldg.jpg]]: "Isn't that interesting ? Andreas Heldal-Lund apparently owned the photo and so, got to make a statement. He said: Critics of the Church of Scientology (CoS), including Wikipedia .. are free to use images and text on this site (xenu.net site). Isn't that interesting. Andreas Heldal-Lund gives Wikipedia permission to use the photo because Wikipedia is a critic of the Church of Scientology, according to Andreas Heldal-Lund. Terryeo 09:20, 6 August 2006 (UTC)"

I don't think draconian measures are required, but I do think that such hijinks should not be permitted to pass without notice.

Reported by: [[User:BTfromLA|BTfromLA]] 20:33, 6 August 2006 (UTC)]]

PS: As is spelled out in detail on [[Image_talk:Superpowerbldg.jpg]]: 1. Heldal-Lund is not a native English speaker, thus some awkward sentence construction is hardly unexpected.  2. [[User:AndroidCat|AndroidCat]] has stated that he emailed Heldal-Lund, asking him to add the line specifically granting Wikipedians access to his content, despite the fact that Wikipedia is not a "critics" site. Undaunted by these facts, Terryeo continues to amplify his claims about the bad faith of Wikipedia with regards to Scientology, and to generally engage in disruptive behavior. --  [[User:BTfromLA|BTfromLA]] 16:50, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

::: BTfromLA's lately added paragraph which states information is untrue in that at no point have I stated nor implied anything about Wikipedia with regards to Scientology except to express confidence that Wikipedia's policies will always result, in the end, in a good presentation of information.  BTfromLA's statement that I have claimed ''bad faith of Wikipedia'' is a personal attack and untrue.  I have made statements on the page he specifies, those statements address Heldal-Lund's statement which appears there.  If BTfromLA is unable to read the printed word to understand what it says, and present it as stated, he certainly should engage in more user discussion rather than misrepresent the stated word here. [[User:Terryeo|Terryeo]] 18:22, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

:Oh good.  BTfromLA posted to my user page but didn't spell out what he was talking about.  Now I see what he is talking about. Yes, I certainly made that posting to that article's '''discussion page'''. I idiomatically reproduced the text under the image from the article, selecting the portions of the text which make my point and leaving out some information between commas, qualifiers, etc. to produce exactly what Heldal-Lund said about Wikipedia.  Which is, "Wikipedia is a critic of the Church of scientology" (according to Heldal-Lund).  That is exactly what he states there.  And I find that to be quite interesting.  Which attitude also explains why he has a link on the front page of his personal website to Wikipedia. Quite interesting.  Happy Ho Ho's. [[User:Terryeo|Terryeo]] 22:23, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Let us work toward a presentation as good as any other noteable person, still alive. Terryeo 18:38, 10 August 2006 (UTC)" --[[User:Fahrenheit451|Fahrenheit451]] 05:10, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm glad to see a better use contract has appeard on the image's page. The earlier requirement which insisted the image could not be used unless a mindset was held by the viewer was plain silly. [[User:Terryeo|Terryeo]] 14:13, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

:While Terryeo is correct that the controversy about the photo has cooled, this does not alter the fact that Terryeo was engaging in gratuitously disruptive behavior when opening the discussion as he did, omitting the key phrase in the license when he quoted it, and pursuing his position that Heldal-Lund believed Wikipedia to be "a critic" of Scientology against all evidence. He also issued a flurry of charges that various editors, myself included, had been personally attacking him.  In my case, at least, this was untrue, as I believe the administrators will conclude.  As to his assertions about the "bad faith of Wikipedia"--a characterization with which he takes issue--Terryeo's comments can be understood in terms of his repeated, longstanding claims (currently posted on his user pages: [[User:Terryeo]] and [[User:Terryeo/subpage1]] ) that many if not most of the Wikipedia editors who work on Scientology articles are people whom the Church of Scientology has "expelled and declared to be suppressive (to freedom of religion)" who "wear black hats" and "do not wish to have the subject presented in a neutral sort of way." He claims that "this activity is the result of Wikipedia's editing policy. It is not likely to change. Its form suggests the situation might grow more extreme over time, instead of the articles growing more factual over time."  [[User:BTfromLA|BTfromLA]] 17:39, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Why is asking someone for help a "provocation"? DCV is also on probation [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Deeceevoice/Proposed_decision#Non-escalating_personal_attack_parole] for racially-related incivility  ''"And I'm a blackwoman. We made you. Ya ''day''-um sure cain't Mau-Mau me. I don't play that s***. :p I'm not some naive, little white girl you can send crying to her room. What? U dun loss ur damn mine? Actin' a fool in public -- and we ''both'' in enemy territory? Like I said b4, check yasself."''

Deeceevoice is not rascist, I would testify to that without hesistation in a court of law based solely on her behaviour at wikipedia, and I think those who claim she is are the more likely to be suffering from that sickness themselves, [[User:SqueakBox|SqueakBox]] 04:02, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

:Whether or not deeceevoice has behaved unreasonably was settled by her arbcom case (ruling: she has).   This is the enforcement page.  [[User:Justforasecond|Justforasecond]] 22:37, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
