	Yeah, it's the same guy. (I didn't see much point in continuing this on the article's Talk page.) At least three other admins have gotten involved since his initial block, because he has singled me (and one of them) out for persecution and Wikistalking. Not that I really care -- I think it's nice that he's doing such a great job of finding anonymous open proxies for us :)--''']]''' 01:19, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Galopindeschamps

You recently blocked sockpuppets of Budisgood. Now there is another brand new editor user:Galopindeschamps working on the same articles as Budisgood. I am hesitant about another sockpuppet investigation. What do you think? The Banner talk 19:02, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Oh hell yes. CU-blocked. --jpgordon 19:18, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

I reverted some of 'em, could you get the rest? (Gotta run.) --jpgordon 19:22, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I will take care of it. The Banner talk 19:25, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Guideline and policy news

Following an RFC, Misplaced Pages:Notability (species) was adopted as a subject-specific notability guideline.

Technical news

The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions.

Arbitration

Following the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections, the following editors have been elected to the Arbitration Committee: CaptainEek, Daniel, Elli, KrakatoaKatie, Liz, Primefac, ScottishFinnishRadish, Theleekycauldron, Worm That Turned.

@User:jpgordon Hi JPgordon, you recently unblocked this user User talk:Koshuri Sultan and they claimed they had improved..

I'm not. All I'm concerned about in your case has to do with what you were previously blocked for, not your editing disagreements. So I don't need this discussion here. --jpgordon 06:14, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

Understood, the discussion has been resolved now. Koshuri Sultan (talk) 07:32, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
