Thank-you so much Ryan. I hope it doesn't sound wierd, but being able to do this and reach people he knew kinda makes me feel close to him. And I know he'd want me to try and do this. He lived so far away from us and now he's gone forever.
Did I do this right?

The article will be discussed at ''']''' until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Recently you have taken an interest in allowing for a fair representation of an LDS author named Chris Heimerdinger. An editor named Ronz has taken it upon himself to delete a large part of the content of these articles in a manner that seems prejudiced against the faith of the subject represented. Certainly Misplaced Pages does not wish to have a reputation that is influenced by religious prejudice. Ronz's tirade in requesting sourced material seems innocent on the surface, but has gotten to the point of using this as excuse to potentially delete full articles (like Passage to Zarahemla) as well as trim to the point that the article really offers little interesting information. And it seems this is entirely for fear that parties, including the subject himself, are promoting rather than treating the subject in an encyclopedic manner. He seems to have gone much beyond whatever authority is offered to editors in this matter. This author, a movie associated with him, as well as other featured articles related to his career, are being unduly cut and slashed with apparent prejudice. The discussion page on the subject of Passage to Zarahemla goes over these issues with more detail. I have read many articles on Misplaced Pages, including an article recently on a British character actor named Kenneth Cope, that offers much interesting information without <i>any references at all</i>. The spirit of Misplaced Pages, it would seem, is to offer more info than can be found in other resources. Many people have gone out of their way to offer legitimate resource info to justify certain items in the these articles, only to have such postings "undone" by Ronz. From your other edits you appeared to have the ability to take a neutral approach to this matter, disallowing promoters as well as detractors. Please involve yourself again to return such articles back to a balance that is not so unduly weighted toward detractors. Georgia.


Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.<!-- Template:Afd notice --></div> ] (]) 20:06, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

Hey Ryan, if you have a moment, could you take a look at ] discussion over on Betacommand's talk page?

Hi Ryan. I was talking to MBisanz on his talk page and he mentioned that he thought you had used or warned someone once under the BLPSE (BLP Special Enforcement) provisions. See ].

== Betacommands current status ==
}}

Hi, I have just dropped the following at User talk:Jayron32<blockquote>''I have been reviewing the discussion, and see that we have generally moved into the realms of "how can we accommodate BC in future/how to we get BC to comply with restrictions" - which is all well and good, but I don't see a consensus that he should be unblocked! I see almost no opposes against my original indefinite block, and the unblock discussion promoted by you was closed as no consensus; therefore I think a consensus was established for the current block. Subsequently BC made his statement, and a good number of people argued that an unblock should be considered but not (in my view) sufficient to change the recently established consensus.''
''To allow the discussion regarding the terms under which Betacommand may return to editing to develop to a consensus, I think there has to be a determination given that BC remains under indefinite block pending a change in consensus ''and that this needs to be stated clearly at WP:ANI''. I think that it might be best if it were to be made by you, and/or Ryan Postlethwaite (who I will be copying this message) than by me as the blocking admin. This would allow the community to focus on how BC may be allowed to return (I favour the status quo; the restrictions worked because only by the block was BC forced to reconsider his actions) and BC to address the issues. As the block is indefinite, then when a sysop is prepared to unblock they can bring the matter to ANI and present their case, and enact the unblock upon reaching consensus.''
''If you, together with Ryan if considered necessary, feel that a "resolved, Betacommand indefinitely blocked" template should be placed upon the matter please do not feel it necessary to confirm to me - but I am otherwise open to discuss anything arising from this suggestion. Cheers. (LessHeard vanU)''</blockquote> As someone involved in trying to resolve this, I have put this here for your comments. Regards ] (]) 20:33, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

== Calton ==

Hello.
Calton is repeatedly violating WP:NPA and WP:BLP on the front of his user page. He constantly re-inserts the offending information under the guise of "revert vandalism". NPA and BLP are pretty clear and concise and he is clearly in violation of them. However, because I am an anon he refuses to take this into account. He has also vandalized my talk page. Please look into this. Thank you and Happy new Year! ] (]) 13:33, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

The "vandalism" is on this IP's part--problematic, especially given that it's fairly obvious the permabanned pest {{Vandal|TruthCrusader}}, who's done similar stunts before, including complaining to my employer and leaving libelous -- and plain vile -- comments on a blog about me. For the former, I was lucky enough to get Mike Godwin to write a letter to my HR manager and for the latter ] got the info and banned his ass. You may wish to investigate the suddenly reappearing {{User|Hullaballoo Wolfowitz}}. --] | ] 14:08, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

You left out the part where you are violating WP:NPA and WP:BLP on your user page. Rules are rules, they apply to everyone here and are not "selective". ] (]) 15:06, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
