Calton, I was reading ] and found the tone of a couple of comments , to be unproductive, bordering on ]. This is not at all conducive to creating an encyclopedia.

:Hi Calton, I'd recommend you to ignore Azukimonaka's incoherent rambling, as I'm 99% certain he is just another 2ch meat puppet. Even though he has made some edits which aren't related to the inflammatory postings on Misplaced Pages, a quick look on his contrib list shows he has made edits to several of the articles which were specified as "full of Korean forgery" in this 2ch thread . I'd like to think of his manga edits as simply "fleshing out" of the meatpuppet character, just as meatpuppets are recommended to do in that thread. Additionally, looking at his English as well as his behaviour (posting copycat revert/vandalism warnings after being warned himself), it seems extremely likely that he is a continuation of either ] or ], accounts which have have become inactive since warnings were posted on their talkpages/userpages. I do however hope for your continued support in dealing with this vandal. Thank you in advance, ] 19:25, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

==　Hi Calton. Don't put a tag on my page after conclusion '''without evidence''' ==

Don't put a tag on my page after conclusion '''without evidence'''. You are a troll. And if you want to revert the artcle, first of all, you should give proof of it in note. By the way, I think ] is also a 2ch meat puppet of another side. He has a thorough knowledge of 2ch. Thanks. ] 02:23, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

If you are a Westerner, living in Tokyo, you would be able to read this article of Asahi Shinbun in Japanese . I began to translate some paragraphes of it. And after that, I was mounted attacks by Mackan. I think he wants to hide the facts. Please read this . And if you can, please translate them or write the informations of Asahi Shinbun , which Westerners outside of Japan haven't known yet. ] 03:41, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
:I really shouldn't comment on this, but I just love the fact that DDRG suggests I am a 2ch meatpuppet "of another side". That's rich, really. On the other hand, this looks like a confession from his side: he IS a 2ch meatpuppet, and he thinks I'm one also. Also, the fact he would think Calton is a westerner, but apparently not me, is revealing. The only reason he'd think I'm a Zainichi is because of all the rumouring about my origins (lately the consensus seems to be I'm an adopted Korean) in the very 2ch thread he came from. ] 07:01, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
::I think ] is a 2ch meatpuppet "of another side", because he could put many links to 2ch. Who can do such things but of a 2ch meatpuppet?? Everyone thinks that he is a 2ch meatpuppet "of another side", when he/she reads his history. ] should read his history again. ] 21:34, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

In the case of Diyako the block is one year, in the case of Diyarbakir it is indefinite. Diyarbakir is also known to devote his entire contribs to wiki-stalk me for the past two years. ArbCom merely warned me for my behaviour during my first 1000 edits. Surely my other 30,000+ edits should have some weight.

We categorize cities by country (defacto (Taiwan/Sealand) or dejure (France/United States) alike) not by regions that also happen to be wanabe countries. So far, I haven't been given one straight answer on what these Kurdistan categorization is based on nor have I been ever told why they are even necessary. Issue is so controversial, people do not even want to touch it with a "10 foot pole", surely there must be something wrong with this category if people are so hesitant to remark on it. If it was completely uncontroversial and non-problematic I am sure people would be more than willing to comment.
::::I have been trying very hard '''not''' to escalate the issue (escalating it is very easy, all it takes is one person waging a revert war and hell breaks loose - we have seen examples of this in the past).

:Huh, so you want an apology for a comment from a year-and-half ago you dug up and ... oh, hey, it's still true, so why bother? Still trying to rearrange the Government of Australia singlehandedly?

You are hardly in a position to demand an apology for comments issued two years ago(!), Skyring. This is highly disruptive and needs to stop. ] 17:25, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Calm down. I'm not '''demanding''' anything. A polite request, and judging by Calton's response, unlikely to result in anything positive. Best to let it drop. don't you think? --] 18:07, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

==Copyright Violation===
This item is unquestionably a copyright infringement of http://bnainoachnews.com/tiki-read_article.php?articleId=241&comzone=show, and no assertion of permission has been made.

:Chutzpah! There was an assertion of permission made when I submitted the page. A subsequent editor put the assertion at the bottom of the page. This is the SECOND TIME that this page has been flagged with copyright violation!. As far as the "And so far, the references you claim to show GFDL compliance, in fact, show bupkis." It is because wikipedia is '''dropping the trailing period''' in the link!!!! Please revert! And clean up my talk page! --] 14:04, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

==Centiare==
I've done research into wikipedia's policy's esp. ] and ]

I'm not going to be nearly as crass as to make the centiare page again and have it nominated for deletion which starts everyone off on a negative note. Instead I will present an argument (on your page first as you ''urged'' to delete it originally) about why a page would qualify as encyclopedic content.

*The '''alexa ranking'''. Centiare ranks number 77,737 over the last three months and was 35,000 yesterday. Most wikis on wikipedia (the ones linkable through ] are in the several hundred thousands.

*]. Centiare has been featured on a nationwide television station . Centiare was mentioned in the ] .

*The ] was written extensively on though the event was negative for wikipedia. Even though centiare started with an anti-wiki sentiment in the wikipedian community that should not stop inclusion.

After I tweak my argument here I will post it elsewhere so please nicely attack the site so I can build a better defense. ] 19:05, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

You don't like my barnstar. Because I looked through a few of your archives and couldn't find any :(

I hope we can still be friends. I apologize for whatever I did. If you will reciprocate then I'll remove that nasty middle finger cluttering up my user space. ] 00:30, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Haven't you seen ], Michael Douglas is my idol. I take it you're not a libertarian. That's okay, as one I'm open to different view points. Wait why am I still on wikipedia

== What Misplaced Pages is not ==


Or this...

<blockquote>Biased or malicious content

Editors should be on the lookout for biased or malicious content about living persons in biographies and elsewhere. If someone appears to be pushing an agenda or a biased point of view, insist on reliable third-party published sources and a clear demonstration of relevance to the person's notability.
</blockquote>

or this...

Do the right thing on the ] biography of what is not right.

==Japanese Buddhism==
Some people's edits in the Japan article is a little odd. You guys do realize that Japan doesn't have much of an interaction with China until the 8th cent. and even then the interaction for Japan to the outside world is a mix between Korea and China. In the 16th cent. Japan still considered Korea a good source of technology and ideas of the bigger world cause of Korea's proximity to Japan. It seems odd to keep excluding or negating Korea from existence when it comes to Japan's ancient history. Some people seem to be obsessed with eliminating or negating any mention of Korea from Japan's ancient history. It happened with the Yayoi section, it happened with rice cultivation and it keeps happening with every other instance when Korea is an intregal part Japan's ancient history. I'm going to delete that entire sentence cause we can't seem to agree on whether Korea and China contributed to Japan's buddhism or ONLY China contributed to Japan's buddhism. Or I will add that both Korea and China contributed to Japanese buddhism. Thanks --] 11:18, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

It's clean-up duty, mopping up after the dishonest, incompetent, and fanatical. Can't imagine why you'd have a problem with that.

Some ground rules before you leave a message

  1. I am not an admin. I did not delete your page or article, nor did I block you. I may have, at the very most, suggested or urged deletion of pages or articles but I have no power or ability to do so on my own. I'm just an editor.
  2. This also means, of course, I cannot undelete your page/article, nor unblock you. I can, however, offer you a cookie.
  3. If you are here to make an argument dependent on arcane or convoluted interpretations of Misplaced Pages guidelines or rules, note that Misplaced Pages is not game of nomic nor a court of law. Adherence to common sense and rational argument trumps ruleslawyering, as far as I'm concerned. I've been there, done that, got the t-shirt, thankyouverymuch.
  4. There is no Rule 4.
  5. Don't post when drunk. Seriously.
  6. All communication sent via the "E-mail this user" link is considered public, at my discretion. Reasonable requests for confidentiality will be honored, but the whole "e-mail is sacrosanct and private" argument I do not buy for one solitary second. Do not expect to use that argument as an all-purpose shield.
  7. Do not assume I'm stupid, especially when arguing for something obviously untrue. I do not respond well to having my intelligence insulted.
  8. Don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams. Do I look like Montel Williams? Do I? NO? Then don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams.
  9. Especially bogus, hostile, and/or trolling remarks are subject to disemvoweling.
  10. Please post at the bottom of the page and "sign" your posts using the squiggly things (--~~~~).
  11. Please extinguish all cigarettes, as this is a No Smoking page.
Thank you. -- The Management.

RIP Calton Bolick (1961-2022)

I regret to inform the Misplaced Pages community that Calton Bolick has passed away, Friday evening Japan time, after a short illness. I've known Cal online for more than 30 years; he was always a fascinating and complicated intellect, sometimes a bit pointy on the edges, but always honest and direct in the pursuit of truth. I'll miss him. --jpgordon 04:42, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
