Calton continues, I randomly pulled user out of Calton's many spam warning contributions over the past day and got this one: ] - the user has never been blocked, let alone indef blocked. Should I start a separate ] thread to address this issue? What are your recommendations? Calton never responded to your request for an explanation.--]<sup>(] <small>•</small> ])</sup> 23:12, 5 April 2008 (UTC) | |||

::: Well, no offense ], but I know you commonly tag userpages as spam and then add {{tl|temporary userpage}} to their talk pages. Several admins have addressed this issue with you before, including me, but we apparently have a clear difference of opinion over the proper usage of {{tl|temporary userpage}}. (See ], ], ], ]). If I notice these I review them. Some of these are in fact indef blocked and don't have an indef block tag, so the {{tl|temporary userpage}} tag is valid. Others have never been blocked, let alone indef blocked. If you look at ] you'll probably find that many, if not most, usertalkpages are due to {{tl|temporary userpage}} on the talk page - though I'm not saying they're all there due to Calton - I have no idea. Alternatively, will give a good starting place if you go through the ones tagged as spam in particular (Calton puts the template in the edit summary so this is pretty easy). --]<sup>(] <small>•</small> ])</sup> 23:25, 2 April 2008 (UTC) | |||

::There are four notices to Calton there, comprising the concerns of five separate admins, the last one is mine. ''When'' Calton replies, it sounds like "Don't complain to me, I just tag them, complain to the admins who are deleting" - that's a paraphrase not a quote. Of course, the complaining parties ''are'' the admins. In at least one case, the third one above, Calton appears to convince the admin that he doesn't understand policy and should be deleting these. There is at least one other notice on his page regarding inappropriate use of CSD against user talk pages too. Calton's attitude seems to be that these pages don't belong here so I won't stop tagging them. I'm a new admin and don't really know the best way to handle this, several very experienced admins seem to have given up already. Problem is, from that AN thread we have evidence that some admins have been just cleaning out the queue and maybe not always noticing whether the user was actually indef blocked (of all the tags that I'm aware of that feed ], {{tl|temporary userpage}} is the only one that is not clearly an indef blocked tag) --]<sup>(] <small>•</small> ])</sup> 23:48, 5 April 2008 (UTC) | |||

Actually I only briefly came back to correct some absurd references in a "Middle East" article about Pakistan. I wasn't intending on coming back for good.

Realist2
Another admin (not me) has unblocked Realist2 following this debate: . I'm really sorry if this has offended you, but I believe after our chat on IRC last night that you were open to the possibility of reassessing the situation in the light of more information being made available. I think that a simple error was made in good faith, actually several simple errors, including some by the user. I hope we can fix the issue and that I have not dumped you in the shit as a result. Sincere apologies if you are unhappy about this, I was only trying to help. Guy (Help!) 11:41, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
WP:Lectures
#wikipedia-en-lectures @ 15:00 UTC today, yay. Xavexgoem (talk) 14:57, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
User:Vonita
He canvassed once. I warned him to stop it. He blanked it.
He sent me an attacking message "You are a page blanking vandal. That is all you are and all you ever will be." But what disturbs me the most is that a user who has not made even 50 edits yet tells me to read WP:MOS. I find it futile to warn him again as he has blanked one. Ultra! 14:02, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
- I am sorry you have been dragged into this and I do not know why he has chosen to involve you since he went to WP:ANI and I replied there.
- I copy my reply here as well:
- First of all, it is she not he. Secondly, I am taking my time to read all Misplaced Pages policies before I make substantive edits. It's a pity he does not since he manages to annoy. It is deplorable that he comes running to WP:ANI. As for the comment about him being a Page Blanking Vandal, that is a true statement of fact. He has been blocked twice from Misplaced Pages for being a page blanking vandal. That all came out in his humilliating attempt to become a Misplaced Pages Admin. Read the RfA to see how united people were against his application. It was not canvassing to inform User:Maddyfan about this ]. Note the comments made by User:hbdragon88 about Vikrant Phadkay's outbursts of temper and acts of vandalism that led him twice to being blocked from Misplaced Pages. (he changed his screen name to Ultraviolet scissor flame).
- Maddyfan at that point was in dispute with him and had warned him about being blocked again. Look here User talk:Ultraviolet scissor flame/Archive 3#Madonna.
- I warned Vikrant Phadkay not to leave rude messages on my Talk Page again as did user:emerson 7, look here User talk:Ultraviolet scissor flame/Archive 4#i have been warned?.
- He was the one who first left an attack message on my page. As for "blanking", he removed my message from his talk page and it was only afterwards that I removed his message from mine.
- Look at his Talk Page User talk:Ultraviolet scissor flame/Archive 4 to see how many warnings he has received from other editors and how many photos, he uploaded, have been deleted from Misplaced Pages because of copyright violations.
- He needs to learn that if he is nice to others then others will be nice to him and if he is rude to others then others will be rude to him. That is how life is.

- I'm not sure how I am involved in this either, and since it has went to AN/I, I am not going to comment. -

Hey, Actually I only briefly came back to correct some absurd references in a "Middle East" article about Pakistan. I wasn't intending on coming back for good.

Afghan Historian (talk) 12:08, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
Well I stopped editing since last night so consider my role on wikipedia over for now. I promise you will not see me again on wikipedia so I would still like my page to be protected and retired again, if that is still possible. ;) Afghan Historian (talk) 20:48, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

I noticed that you have been deleting articles with this title. According to what I have seen the user creating these articles is likely a sockpuppet of the banned user User:Grawp. See Special:Contributions/Grawp for more details. Vivio Testarossa 05:45, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
chandu v. the bad bot
Chandu thanks you for reverting the mistagging. Image:ChanduTheMagician.jpg. EraserGirl (talk) 16:28, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
- Can you explain something small? Your comment on the Incidents page "Actually, the image isn't being used, as evident from the empty "File links" section on the Image description page. " Confuses me. as the image has always been linked to the article and vice versa. I didn't fix the link and it doesn't appear that you did, so how was it ever empty? EraserGirl (talk) 04:00, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well then you are in error, the image has been displayed ON the page since it was added, not just linked but actually appeared in the infobox. I can see if the image size was incorrect there might be a problem but it didn't prevent the image from actually being seen and yes the file link was actually THERE when I checked all the info on the image page after the bot tagged it. Perhaps you are confused. No matter it is all fixed now. Thanks again for fixing the tag. EraserGirl (talk) 12:40, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

WP:Lectures
Today (Apr 20th), around 15:00 UTC! Possibly on Skype, but certainly on IRC (#wikipedia-en-lectures on freenode)! I don't actually know about the Skype details... Message me on Skype (xavexgoem) about that, if you have it (no harm in getting it, either), and then maybe by that time I'll have a clue :-p Xavexgoem (talk) 14:28, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
