WQA Comment

I commented below you at WQA and saw your comment, viz: the discussion itself is inherently tedious and I don't see how that can be avoided. Such is the nature of (or IMO, failure of) the consensus-based decision-making process when you have far too many participants. :/ (which, again, is why I refuse to participate in policy discussions on Misplaced Pages anymore under any circumstances) Amen to that brother, but I wonder if this doesn't rather compromise your opinion in such matters - if you cannot even bring yourself to participate in such discussions, does that not qualify any comments you make regarding those who do? Perhaps not, but I would add this: you seem to be saying, all policy discussions are tedious and in that context, some users are more tedious than others. I don't disagree, but I do wonder if a rather more aggressive approach wouldn't be useful insofar as it would discourage the accretion of tedium in an already tedious demesne. It seems needlessly supine to say merely: Oh well, this is what such discussions tend to produce. Anyway, just a thought. Eusebeus (talk) 14:16, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

I have replied on my talk page.

Also not a barnstar

Just wanted to drop in and commend you for your technical work with that script. Rather than worrying about what had occurred in the past, you looked to prevent it from re-occurring in the future. Of course, no good deed goes unpunished, so I was wondering if you might be able to sort a way to have this script User:AzaToth/twinklewarn.js display "Blocking" by default? Your actions inspired me to solve this problem on my own (which turned out to be quite simple, really). Anyways, keep up the great technical work. A da vinci barnstar would've gone here. ;p xenocidic (talk) 00:53, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

It was as simple as moving "selected:true" from General Note (1) down to Blocking =). xenocidic (talk) 14:30, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Advice

Very good work there, it needed to be archived. DMN came to my talk to further discuss, essentially I said that any further discussion on the ANI board won't resolve the issue. Good BOLD move. Gwynand | TalkContribs 15:49, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Please see followup at User talk:SandyGeorgia#Being treated like a servant; there was a lot of misunderstanding on that AN/I thread, and I'm sorry it was closed before the misinfo could be cleared up. I want to make sure you understand that Tony1 was not "the FAC closer". SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:53, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

No barnstar

I borrowed your no barnstar image. Please feel free to borrow my

Re: Wikiquette alert notice, and some advice

Thank you for the heads up, and for taking the time to mediate here (although I didn't even know there was a notice until you left me the message). I will make a better effort of judging the edits and not the editor from now on. Should I add a comment to the Wikiquette alert notice? BTW, I would have left you a barnstar, but I'm affraid I've misplaced them... They have to be somewhere in this cruft of a desk... –w2bh talkcontribs 17:03, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

I nearly teared up

This was very nice, thanks. Lots of drama going on around here, so you've given me motivation to continue for a long time to come. But drinking heavily is also quite useful.  :) OrangeMarlin 00:27, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Process for challenging complicated edit-warring?

So, what is the proper process for challenging complicated edit-warring? When the editor is skilled and clever, and knows when to back off and lay low, it is not a matter that can be resolved in mediation, and you can't take an editing content complaint to arbcom. I am stumped.--Cberlet (talk) 14:59, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

It's.... really hard :) If possible, the best solution is to get a very clear consensus among a number of edits, have a section on the talk page (or a subpage off the talk page) that explicitly states the consensus and makes a strong case that that is the consensus, and then just revert. Continued reversions in the face of a very explicit consensus can be considered vandalism, but please be very careful about when you label it. (I usually drop the person a warning first explaining why their edits are against consensus, and state that "any further reversion could be construed as vandalism")
If the person knows when to back off, though, as you say they can be a pest for some time. If it is the same account doing it, and they do it persistently and against the clear consensus I mentioned above, a report to WP:ANI may be in order.
I think arbcom could be an eventually step, even though they don't handle editing content complaints per se... if someone is sneakily circumventing consensus, that goes beyond "editing content". But I wouldn't try to bring it to arbcom myself; I'd try and get people at ANI to look into it, and if they can't figure it out, they may suggest arbcom.
Sometimes, even this doesn't work. heh... But, we all just do our best.
Can you give me a little more background on the dispute in question? I would be willing to look into it further. --Jaysweet (talk) 15:22, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Let me do my homework and pull together a clear collection of diffs and links. Thanks for offering to help.--Cberlet (talk) 20:22, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Church of the New Revelation

Please don't make AfD discussions if merging is what you want to do. AfD is not for merging. Since this article was barely even a stub anyway, I boldly redirected it to Stranger in a Strange Land. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters21:41, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Sorry 'bout that. I suppose in the future I'll just do bold redirects like you did with this page. I don't like the proposed-merge tag, because I don't think anybody actually looks at them on low-traffic articles :D And even though silence implies consent, if I don't remember I tagged an article to be merged, it will sit there forever until somebody else stumbles upon it.
But, that just means I need to be more bold, I suppose. Sorry for the mess, and thanks for the tip! --Jaysweet (talk) 21:46, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
