== Barry Wom and continued unnecessary removal of information ==

Hi, I'm a user who doesn't really edit on Misplaced Pages much, but me and a friend tried adding something to a page ]. Specifically we felt it'd be necessary to point out how nothing has been done with that movie despite it being part of a franchise with plans for more content in the future. However, this "Barry Wom" user keeps deleting the fact despite it being pretty worthy of mention (at least, IMO). I noticed Barry Wom has been blocked at least a few times for edit warring too in the past.

If you could maybe warn this user or block him, that'd be helpful. Thanks. ] (]) 15:20, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

: If he edit wars, you could report him to ]. ] (]) 15:49, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
::Barry Wom and another user named Indagate are refusing to accept that DC League of Super Pets' current franchise plans are unknown, dismissing it as "unnecessary" and "not notable" and that other pages containing the "It is currently unknown if" statement aren't relevant to the page, even though I showed them as proof.

::Hi Phil, I hope I'm not being a pest, but I just saw Jidarave's response on his talk page. I want to mention, in case you don't have the technical background to recognize it, that the text that they say they want to add is more of the same meaningless technobabble gibberish they've been spamming to the Reference Desk for years. I've been informed via email by another editor that Jidarave is likely a sock of ], and after reviewing the behavior of the numerous socks of that account, it seems likely to me.

Jbk’s only edits designate them a COI SPA, as far as I can tell, and I was thinking of giving them <nowiki>{{User alternative account|Jbk932}}</nowiki> on the new account’s Userpage so that, while we AGF and give them a chance to be a legit net positive, their origins aren’t missed if anything comes up.

== Deletion of ] ==

I don't think it should have been deleted. First off, I don't think "attack page" applies to redirects.

== Re SupremeLeader90 and Interaham socks ==

Hey there, thanks for checking on my suspicion of sockpuppetry in this case. In the active article deletion thread, is there a particular 'best practice' regarding the "votes" in the article deletion thread? I was thinking a brief parenthetical near the top ("Interaham and SupremeLeader90 were identified as engaging in ]", so their votes have been struck") and then putting a strikethrough on their votes - and by votes, I mean only the vote word, e.g. "<s>Keep</s>" but leaving their textual contributions unmolested? Mainly not sure on the propriety of altering even just the vote word. Then there's also the matter of the IP, which I presume from your comment on the sock case that it's a grey area. cheers. ], ] 04:39, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi Phil, not sure if this is the place to do this, but I believe I've shown change. I was going to edit the response there, but sort of got distracted.
Since the block, I've focused on what user {{ping|Valereee}} suggested and focus on other topics. Since then I've discussed the topics several times before making more bold changes and have alerted the respected users. This ranges from ] (, and reached out to other users heavily involved with the article to discuss changes made to it (, and here ). Similarly with '']'' () and here for responses: , and (with this user, we've even collaborated more since as we seemed to hit it off pretty well!). Also since then, I've applied work on other articles bringing '']'' and ] to good article status. While I respect your review, I disagree with your assertation that I haven't learned to communicate with others. As I feel like I've kept a cool head since. ] (]) 16:34, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

No, I blocked the account, and then unblocked it following an unblock request. PhilKnight (talk) 13:15, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
Well, after the unblock request was accepted, they’ve gone to nominate articles that I created (possibly because I filed the SPI). I don’t think that that sort of editing is considered as good-faith editing; it is disruptive at best. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 11:29, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
I have re-blocked them. PhilKnight (talk) 16:57, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Assistance

"I am writing to request assistance regarding recent edits to the "Lovely Runner" article. editor Paper90ll has repeatedly removed information regarding Lovely Runner achievment at the Asia Artist Awards. Despite these reversions, the user continued to rollback the changes and tagging me Ultraviolet Rollback. I would appreciate guidance on how to resolve this ongoing dispute and ensure that the article accurately reflects the subject matter." Puchicatos (talk) 13:32, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

@PhilKnight As I had reply to Aoidh at their talk page on the same cross-posted topic. It's truly lovely to have WP:ASPERSIONS and WP:PERSONALATTACKS to start 2025. On Lovely Runner, my edit that removed "Material that fails verification be removed" per WP:VERIFY with "WP:VERIFY, WP:OR, WP:SYNTH" in the edit summary however so lovely we have this edit by our dear editor that apparently by following VERIFY, OR, SYNTH was ASPERSIONS as "WP:BITE WP:FAITH"??? On the same article, the inline citation 48 nor 49 doesn't explicity stated that it's awarded for Lovely Runner either, further evidencing that my edit was aligned with Misplaced Pages's policies. On List of awards and nominations received by Byeon Woo-seok, believed to be related to this discussion which our dear editor couldn't give me any acceptable neutral explanation to restore their preferred layout and also likely related to this edit reverting their incorrect updates to the Infobox's count by going against the documentation. In addition, rather perplexing that it was such a thing to discuss first for non-controversial edits when the edits made were per WP:BOLD and didn't requires WP:CONSENSUS. Lastly, where exactly was the ASPERSIONSly the WP:3RR violations and/or "edit warring" violation on either articles??? I would pretty much like you as an administrator to give me an reasonable explanation on such behaviour otherwise this behaviour would continue by going around administrator's talk page and cross-posting the same topic. — 🎉🎆 Paper9oll 🎆🎉 (🔔 • 📝) 13:38, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
I agree with Aoidh's comments. PhilKnight (talk) 18:11, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Tuwintuwin/Archive

Hello, PhilKnight,

I saw that you closed this SPI case but the main sockmaster, Tuwintuwin, wasn't blocked at all. Was this an oversight? Just wondering as I've run into their editing this evening. Liz 08:19, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

I just saw that they were indefinitely blocked but were unblocked only 3 days later! Liz 08:22, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Arjayay and DH85868993 keeps reverting my edits.

Hello. First of all, I wanted to say I'm really sorry for my wrongdoings. Second, the two users keep reverting my edits for "Nurburgring". I put the correct info for the Nordscheliefe section, but the two keep reverting it. Click this link and you will see that my info is correct: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsLi7HgSuhI Anyway, please stop them from putting wrong data. Thank you, and again, I'm sorry. 2603:8000:99F0:93A0:9932:FB79:1D30:444B (talk) 17:49, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

You should use the talk page - Talk:Nürburgring - to establish consensus, and not edit war. PhilKnight (talk) 18:01, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
Okay. Thank you. And again, I'm sorry. 2603:8000:99F0:93A0:9932:FB79:1D30:444B (talk) 18:05, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Hello!!!

I was wondering how to archive stuff? And can you also mentor me as en wiki is different from simple en wiki? Cactus🌵 08:40, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi Cactusisme, you seem to have figured out how to archive stuff based on your user talk page. I don't mentor users, I suggest you find someone at Misplaced Pages:Adopt-a-user/Adoptee's Area/Adopters. PhilKnight (talk) 11:14, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
Alright, thanks!! Cactus🌵 11:32, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
How about the bot? Cactus🌵 11:32, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
Sorry, I don't understand the question "How about the bot?" PhilKnight (talk) 11:43, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
@PhilKnight Archiving bot Cactus🌵 11:43, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
I have never used an archiving bot, so I am not the right person to ask. PhilKnight (talk) 11:45, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
Anyone you know who uses it? Cactus🌵 11:46, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
Looking at Misplaced Pages:Adopt-a-user/Adoptee's Area/Adopters Rosguill uses archivebot and is currently accepting adoptees. You could try them. PhilKnight (talk) 12:34, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
ok Cactus🌵 12:35, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Edit warring on Battle of Sidi Brahim

M.Bitton who you recently blocked continues to engage in edit warring on other articles, particularly on Battle of Sidi Brahim where he is persistently disrupting Robinvp11's contributions. He is also being hostile on the talk page, which shows that he is treating editing as a battleground. Surely this warrants a stricter block? 185.165.190.128 (talk) 00:26, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

I know of at least one highly disruptive sock (obsessed with me and certain articles, such as Dominican Restoration War and Dominican War of Independence) who is from the same geolocation as you. For the rest, the article's talk page speaks for itself. M.Bitton (talk) 00:29, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
Looking further in the socking, it looks like Norprobr and Phạm Văn Rạng could well be one and the same. M.Bitton (talk) 00:58, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
I don't see evidence of serious edit warring. The sock puppet investigations will be actioned by other admins. PhilKnight (talk) 05:14, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
Since the IP is hiding behind a proxy (blocked by Bbb23), then they could be any of my usual stalkers (hard to tell from a single comment). M.Bitton (talk) 12:45, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
