You seem to have an issue with an article about "Vibration Training". Very similar to Pilates it should at least have a reference here at Misplaced Pages. With no bias. Please explain exactly why you did this. As no group , company or person was promoted as per the rules. Thankyou.

== Gravitor/Carfiend ==

These two users appear to be separate actual users, but joined at the hip. Their behavior patterns are similar. We went through this with them last summer, and they seemed to go away in September, but they recently resurfaced, again totally focused on this one subject. In my opinion he/they are basically "trolls", or at least they exhibit "excessive" trolling behavior. They are good at starting edit wars and refusing to discuss things, then turning around and accusing everyone else of what they are guilty of. They are very good at pulling others into their game. I got sucked into it last summer, but I've tried to stay on the periphery of it this time and just watch the circus. ] 03:22, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

: They do seem to be team editing and are thoroughly invested in the double standard. In particular Carfiend's edits (and their timing) during these past few weeks seem to be tactical appendages. I also notice, as Wahkeenah noted, that they seem to co-opt effective arguments and try to use them as their own - usually though, IMHO, they lack the ethical and authetically rational grounds that make those arguments effective and are left with mere choreography and unmoored rationales. I hesitate to say much more, as little pitchers have big ears and I'm sick of reading '''mockumentary''' versions of arguments and insights I hold as valid. By way of complete disclosure I initiated a RFC on Carfiend last summer as a result of the incidences that Wahkeenah desribes. The behavior which prompted the RFC is still apparent. ] 04:04, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

::You can say that again. The pattern is the same, except that this time it's Gravitor that's more the aggressor. The RFC on Carfiend died on the vine when the both of them disappeared in mid-September... apparently, waiting for the heat to die down so they could start their game again. ] 05:04, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
:::I was just having a discussion with ], who is talking about doing an RFC on the content dispute. I think that's actually a "request for mediation", and that RFC's are about users, but I could be wrong. Meanwhile, some memories came back as I was telling him about the RFC and the request for mediation that both died when those guys disappeared in September... specifically, about the ridiculous debate over the "rendezvous" definition. Remember that? Anyway, once Carfiend was shown up by the facts, he went away, and took Gravitor (and some other red-link users with similar M.O.s) with him. For awhile. ] 11:37, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

::::Looks like Gravitor managed to suck Numskll into a set of 3-revert-violations, and they have both been blocked for 24 hours, by separate admins. My guess is that they each went to separate admins to complain about the other. Such a to-do. ] 21:02, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
:::::And by the looks of Gravitor's talk page, he's learned nothing. He continues to delete stuff from his talk page that he doesn't like (calling it "trolling", as Carfiend did in similar circumstances last summer) and continues to parrot the sockpuppet question by accusing several of us of same. (I don't speak for anyone else here, but *I* don't do sockpuppets.) ] 19:15, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

== Your 3RR warning ==
Thanks. This is me trying to take your advice. I apologize for the inconvenience. The issue of content vs authority is so maddening though - especially given wholely user defined (and collaborative) topics and the range of motives at play. I'm working on more effective rhetorical strategems . . . I'll try (without actually promising) not to always be such a pain. ] 03:49, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
==Your efforts on Independent evidence==
I appreciate your efforts to make progress on this page, and am trying to assume your good faith, but so far the process has resulted in a total revert on the issues without any rational justification on the talk page. Please take a look at my concerns, Thanks, ] 17:03, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
:1. Not one piece of evidence on the page is presented by "''proponents of the theory that the Moon landings did not happen''). None of the sources that the evidence come from have anything to do with the hoax.
:2. Not one piece of evidence on the page was collected as a rebuttal to the hoax. In fact, nearly all of it (perhaps all) was collected '''before the hoax accusations were even made'''. To present this as part of a back-and-forth between the hoax proponents and landing defenders is a gross misrepresentation.
:3. The people who collected this evidence are independent observatories and amateur astronomers. They collected it for their own reasons, certainly not as part of the hoax discussion.
:4 The discussions on Misplaced Pages that produced this page are not a good reason to structure the information.

::Did you manage to take a look at this? Thanks, ] 16:01, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

== Empress Xiao De Xian ==
Yes i know what u mean whit the ID thing about her. But i was actually sure that is was her. In the book there is no source to that bit of text. Sterling Seagrave wrote that there was an ancestor painting of Empress Xiao Zhen Xian. He also wrote how the painting looks like and by that i thought it was actually Empress Xiao De Xian. He says that she had a pointy chin and a dreamly look and if u look closely to the painting "i have got a much bigger and better version of it" u can see what i mean.
But sometime it's very difficult to give reference cause a lot of chinese history is based on rumours. But anyway we can discuss about it:). (Read the book it's very good. ) It's called the Dragon Lady by Sterling Seagrave ISBN 0-679-40230-6

But one thing is sure, There is no ancestor painting of Empress Xiao Zhen Xian so it must be someone else.


== Read before you call some a vandal ==

Hey Jackass, John Renold Aufenstein was cited. It was erased because someone put an offensive name, calling him gay. Instead of reverting, they deleted the name

You see the little 1 in brackets?

ITS A CITATION.

Try clicking on it and seeing the reference next time.

Thank you.

Oh, wow. I'm glad you could spend your time on worrying about c's page, even enough to ask a reference who submitted it, and if someone disagrees with you, which seems to be quite a few people, you could always call them vandals. Nothing like threating an anonymous user with a non-static ip (or dynamic... it changes whenever they log out).

Sorry if you failed your book report on Ryan Seacrest because someone cited another website and reveled that Seacrest's name was actually ethnic. Now what will America do if they found out.

Maybe you're right, we should cover it up and erases any traces of it. What will we do if he says "Aufenstein, out"


Pandemonium, I tell you.


Hey ArglebargleIV, I submitted an entry to the notable games section of Marty Foster's body of work. I appreciate your concern and hesitation regarding my addition. I would like an additional review of the matter, as I believe my entry to be accurate and cited appropriately.
But then again, someone will always know and make elaborate clues to get to the truth and Dan Brown will write a novel about it. I think he'll go for '''The Arglebargle Code''' or '''Arglebargles and Dynamic63.136.116.166s'''

Wow, it took a whole two seconds to think up what i wrote, but i guess 2 seconds of thinking is just plain unhealthy.
It seems to me that most vandalism on seacrest is about his sexual orientation...
I guess someone decided to go to IMDb and make up a name, solely to place it on here...
A name that sounds Jewish...


== ] article question ==
We'll I see how calling him gay with ] and an ethnic name with no gay name calling are alike. Gay, Jewish... same thing, right?
Hey ArglebargleIV, I made a change to Siva_Shankar Baba page because the content on the paragrapah arrest is incorrect and he was falsely implicated. Therefore it is appropriate to just state the fact that he was arrested and that the case is under investigation. The false allegations on his page would be offensive to thousands of his followers. I appreciate your understanding in this context. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><span class="autosigned" style="font-size:85%;">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) </span>

] : Many citations were removed by you. They should be restored. Thanks! ] (]) 00:17, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

* I was merely restoring ]'s edit that I accidentally overwrote.

==Templates==
Hi Argle, for future reference, it's not a good idea to place warning templates on the pages of established editors, or to accuse them of vandalism, as you did . It's best to assume good faith of people who've been contributing for a long time, and if you feel you have to comment on an edit from a long-term contributor, always best to leave a personal note.

Hi ArglebargleIV, I have to remove the two entries on aforementioned page, in segment India's overseas military bases, as it mentioned bases in Iran & Singapore. However it's false, as Iranian Government has only permitted cargo shipping operations for India at Chabahar port (even that has been curtailed as last year Iranian Government expelled India from further work), not stationing of military, as well as the case of Singapore, where only joint training is proposed of both navies & not birthing rights, so in pure sense, it's not called a military base in technicality. -- <!-- Template:Unsigned --><span class="autosigned" style="font-size:85%;">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) </span>

Trying to reach out, as I'm seeing my IP and/or username associated with several edits that range from pointless to offensive. I don't know how it happened, I'm not exceptionally tech savvy but my IP address was on an edit you fixed in the LGBT portal. Even if I wasn't part of the lgbtqai comment, the comment I supposedly made would be really upsetting to me. Not to mention I don't want homophobic vandalism to contribute to my account ever getting blocked.

The page in question is ] and ] - i'd prefer to use the latter.


* I'll try to do my best, but for an authoritative answer, I suggest posting this at ] (I hope I picked the right one!)<br>In general, practically no one can see which IP you are using if you edit while you are logged in. That information is kept private, and can only be accessed by a ], a fairly small group of trusted users who use that power to check for people using multiple accounts when it is not allowed. (More details and a better explanation at the Checkuser link.) I'm not a Checkuser (or an administrator, or even close to being one!). Nobody's going to associate you with IP edits, because, except in very rare circustances, nobody's going to connect your Misplaced Pages account to any IP address. Many internet connections do not have fixed IP addresses -- what may have happened to you is your current IP address may have 'belonged' to another person earlier, and they did the nasty edits (and I understand, I certainly wouldn't want to be associated with those myself!) I don't think you should worry about it, but you can try posting at ] or maybe ] or ]. I hope that helped. -- ] (]) 10:47, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
Other companies, such as ], have done the same thing we are trying to do.

Hi ArglebargleIV


<section begin="announcement-content" />
I saw your message on the ] page and I wanted to just leave a message to say a couple of things. First, I'm not angry at all that you've marked the page for deletion. The work you do keeps Misplaced Pages a tidy and clean place. I also anticipated that the article may be marked for deletion, because as you said, it is the first of its kind for any football|soccer player on Misplaced Pages. However, I ask you to listen to my points as to why this article should remain on Misplaced Pages, since they were what made me think the article should be created in the first place.
:''] ''


Dear Wikimedian,
*This is the most comprehensive football|soccer player's article on Misplaced Pages, and just because Pele's article is not so comprehensive, it shouldn't mean that others are limited to its size. It seems like an unnecessary bottleneck.
*The goals which Gilberto have scored are encyclopaedic information
*The information which is listed on ] was listed on his main article (]) for a number of months, proving it is indeed fit for Misplaced Pages, and...
*It was only moved to a separate page because it was too chunky for its parent page. If the goals page is deleted, the information will only be pasted back onto the main article; I feel that would be less tidy/organized that it having its own page.
*The reason Pele doesn't have his own goal page (or table) is due to the sheer number of goals that Gilberto scored. Some of the details of the goals are probably lost to history. Gilberto will only ever score about 50 goals, and they are all fairly recent, so his page can exist quite easily. The information is readily available. This is not to say that just the fact that Gilberto has scored LESS goals than most allows him to have his own goal page. Quite the opposite. There is even more reason that Pele should have his own page; the only reason that he doesn't though, is that nobody is willing (or able?) to compile a list of his many hundreds of career goals. This is a first step to more comprehensive soccer player articles; it shows editors a new added level of useful detail which can be attained.
*Maybe Gilberto's goal page will lead to Pele (and other notable footballers) having their own statistics/goal pages. Maybe not. But the fact that no other editors have taken the time to compile such lists which require their own pages, surely does not mean that those editors which have, cannot have their pages exist.
*Some Basketball and American Football players do have their own 'statistics' pages. See ] or ]. True, this page isn't on the same scale as said career achievements pages, but the fact that Gilberto is so much less famous means his small goals page is correct to scale.

== Invitation to participate in a research ==


Hello,
== Nonsense edits by user Bantilan ==


The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this ''''''.
Hi there;


You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
You've previously flagged the user "Bantilan" for adding nonsense ... it looks like he's at it again from an anonymous IP address ... maybe you could request that this guy's IP address get blocked? Still figuring out how to do this kind of thing myself ... thanks. Here's the edit history page for his IP address: http://en.wikipedia.org/Special:Contributions/125.60.189.62


The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ] .


Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

I've removed the speedy deletion tag from the above article. While the subject might not be notable, the article does ''assert'' notability in a reasonable way.

Hello,

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ].
Hi, I note that at the article Westfield Penrith you recently reverted an IP edit with the edit comment you copied from ] - ''removing external link: *.gpt.com.au -- per external link guidelines''.
Unfortunately, in this case, ] was not in line with ] as the link removed was the only reference for this article - an inline citation pointing to the website of the 1/2 owner of this complex. A ] beats no reference at all. Please don't remove inline citations under the edit comment of complying with ], which relates to excessive links in an '''external links''' section (such as bands linking their ''official site'' as well as their myspace page and their forum page and their page on google images...).


Take the survey ''''''.
I have:
* restored the inline citation
* verified that it is appropriate source for this article
* inserted additional information from this source.
Thanks,

Although Misplaced Pages itself is not censored, I reserve the right to delete offensive obscenity and deliberately disruptive edits.

Queering Misplaced Pages 2021 User Group Working Days: May 14–16

The Wikimedia LGBTQ+ User Group is holding online working days in May. As a member of WikiProject LGBT studies, editing on LGBTQ+ issues or if you identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, come help us set goals, develop our organisation and structures, consider how to respond to issues faced by Queer editors, and plan for the next 12 months.


Hey ArglebargleIV, I submitted an entry to the notable games section of Marty Foster's body of work. I appreciate your concern and hesitation regarding my addition. I would like an additional review of the matter, as I believe my entry to be accurate and cited appropriately.


We will be meeting online for 3 half-days, 14–16 May at 1400–1730 UTC. While our working language is English, we are looking to accommodate users who would prefer to participate in other languages, including translation facilities.

More information, and registration details, at QW2021.--Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group 02:35, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Siva Shankar Baba article question

Hey ArglebargleIV, I made a change to Siva_Shankar Baba page because the content on the paragrapah arrest is incorrect and he was falsely implicated. Therefore it is appropriate to just state the fact that he was arrested and that the case is under investigation. The false allegations on his page would be offensive to thousands of his followers. I appreciate your understanding in this context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sss srini (talkcontribs)

Can you please explain why you are falsely charging Siva Shankar Baba ? What is your motive behind it. Please explain.

Citation removed

Sudip Lamichhane : Many citations were removed by you. They should be restored. Thanks! Takdeerr (talk) 00:17, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

  • I was merely restoring user:Materialscientist's edit that I accidentally overwrote. I believe, although you should confirm with them, that your string of edits was reverted by them because, in that string, you removed the Articles for Deletion template, which you're not supposed to do while the discussion about deleting the article is still open. If you think your references would help the article, you should add them to the article, but leave the AFD template alone. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 05:22, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

REMOVING TWO ENTRIES ON PAGE LIST OF OVERSEAS MILITARY BASES:

Hi ArglebargleIV, I have to remove the two entries on aforementioned page, in segment India's overseas military bases, as it mentioned bases in Iran & Singapore. However it's false, as Iranian Government has only permitted cargo shipping operations for India at Chabahar port (even that has been curtailed as last year Iranian Government expelled India from further work), not stationing of military, as well as the case of Singapore, where only joint training is proposed of both navies & not birthing rights, so in pure sense, it's not called a military base in technicality. -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.228.192.1 (talkcontribs)

  • I only reverted your edit because there was no explanation given in the edit summary, not because I think you're correct or incorrect. If you remove it again, fill in the summary with why you removed the data, and you should probably make a mention of why on the talk page for List of countries with overseas military bases, so other editors can understand the why of your edit, and possibly discuss it as well. Thanks! -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 09:40, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Reverting legitimate corrections

In this case, the IP was correct. (See: List of lakes by area.) Did you check to see if that were the case or was your revert a knee-jerk reaction to an IP edit? MarconiCheese (talk) 12:42, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Could you assist me with a concern about edits credited to me that I !definitely! didn't make? Thanks (:

Trying to reach out, as I'm seeing my IP and/or username associated with several edits that range from pointless to offensive. I don't know how it happened, I'm not exceptionally tech savvy but my IP address was on an edit you fixed in the LGBT portal. Even if I wasn't part of the lgbtqai comment, the comment I supposedly made would be really upsetting to me. Not to mention I don't want homophobic vandalism to contribute to my account ever getting blocked.

Thank you for your time Agentgdward (talk) 01:42, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

  • I'll try to do my best, but for an authoritative answer, I suggest posting this at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard (I hope I picked the right one!)
    In general, practically no one can see which IP you are using if you edit while you are logged in. That information is kept private, and can only be accessed by a WP:checkuser, a fairly small group of trusted users who use that power to check for people using multiple accounts when it is not allowed. (More details and a better explanation at the Checkuser link.) I'm not a Checkuser (or an administrator, or even close to being one!). Nobody's going to associate you with IP edits, because, except in very rare circustances, nobody's going to connect your Misplaced Pages account to any IP address. Many internet connections do not have fixed IP addresses -- what may have happened to you is your current IP address may have 'belonged' to another person earlier, and they did the nasty edits (and I understand, I certainly wouldn't want to be associated with those myself!) I don't think you should worry about it, but you can try posting at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard or maybe Misplaced Pages:Teahouse or Misplaced Pages:Help desk. I hope that helped. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 10:47, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
  • On second thought, Misplaced Pages:Teahouse or Misplaced Pages:Help desk are better first choices to verify this. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 12:11, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
