Conradi
For the specific issue of the use of "Willy", Conradi has now been blocked once, and given a sharp warning to not repeat. I have noticed the fact that he does just about everything *but* use the word 'liar" when referring to certain people he is in opposition to. I have not called him on it, but I have definitely noticed it.
I was unaware that there had already been two RfCs filed between him and William. Sigh. If this is all at this level now, even after two RfCs, then William filing an RfAr may be the only choice left.
OTOH, Conradi has, on his talk page, leveled some serious accusations of WP:CIVIL violations against William. I have asked him to provide specific proof of these accusations. We shall see. I still consider myself a neutral admin in all this, having never interacted with either of the two of them before closing the first massive CFD a week or two back. - TexasAndroid 18:33, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I can't pretend to be an uninvolved party but I will step up when called upon. It's a shame. John Reid 18:38, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
- I have written an extensive Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration#Tobias Conradi. Originally, I'd thought the panel would be more interested in content issues, but early indications are they prefer inter-personnal conflict, and I've recast the request in that form. Note, I just discovered Conradi has been banned at de. Had my RfC been taken more seriously 4 months ago, this problem could have been nipped in the bud.
A landslide victory for The JPS (aka RFA thanks)
| Hey, John Reid, thank you so much for your vote and comments in my RfA, which passed with an overwhelming consensus of 95/2/2. I was very surprised and flattered that the community has entrusted me with these lovely new toys. I ripped open the box and started playing with them as soon as I got them, and I've already had the pleasure of deleting random nonsense/attacks/copyvios tonight. If I ever do anything wrong, or can help in some way, please feel free to drop me a line on my talk page, and I will do my best to correct my mistake, or whatever... Now, to that bottle of wine waiting for me... |

User page protection
I semi-protected your user page because there was massive amounts of vandalism directed towards it. Pepsidrinka 04:22, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- Please unprotect it. I'd rather have frequent edits to my user page than confusion on my talk page. Thank you. John Reid 16:29, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- I have unprotected it. As far as I saw, when it was protected, only the userpage was protected and the user talk page was not. Pepsidrinka 16:52, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
Vandal sock chain puppeteer identified
I requested a CheckUser on the chain of vandal sock puppets. Between the personal nature of the attacks, and your suspicions voiced on RFAr about it possibly being Conradi, I felt it was necessary to try to find out who was behind the actions, if that was possible. The results are back, and we have our pupetteer identified. CheckUser has shown the responsible person to be "highly likely" as User:Encyclopedist. A quick check shows your opposition to his RFA was a critical factor in his withdrawl of the RFA and withdrawl from the project. It appears that he has held a grudge, and has decided to take it out on you. User:Mackensen has blocked the IP from which the sock parade was coming, so hopefully this may be over. At a minimum it is good to know what this was all about, and to know that it was not Conradi at the middle of this. - TexasAndroid 13:12, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
