Dude, saying stuff like that is just a bad idea any time, and even worse an idea when your conduct is under a microscope. His father may have simply boarded a train when fleeing the Nazi invasion of Belgium, but his mother went through a lot more than that. Not everyone has to be Elie Weisel to be a Holocaust survivor.--] (]) 00:50, 14 August 2012 (UTC) |

Welcome | |
If you start a discussion here on my talkpage I will likely respond on this page as I like to keep discussion complete in one location. If you post an imo attacking comment here I will just delete it and you will no longer be welcome on my talkpage untill I remove the restriction.If I feel the discussion is confrontational or attacking I also reserve the right to request you to host it on your own talkpage. If I move the discussion to your talkpage please do not replace it here, I will delete it. |
This user helped promote Ed Miliband to good article status. |
A bowl of strawberries for you!
Thanks for this note two weeks ago about ArbCom rejecting the PC-closing case; it will make figuring out the history much easier in the future. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:47, 24 July 2012 (UTC) |
Aaaaarrrrrgh!
I hate edit conflicts!!! I'm not going to try again to touch Fetzer's talk page. LadyofShalott 16:12, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry LofS - I have done there now - we should try to stop the user repeating the ranting on the talkpage now that its freshened up - regards - Youreallycan 16:15, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry for my frustration above. If there's one thing I wish the developers would fix, it's edit conflicts. You and I were trying to do the same sorts of things, but were on top of one another. LadyofShalott 16:26, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

I am attempting to avoid editing wiki articles but there is still a position here...b - Youreallycan 20:17, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
- Why do you persist to protect this man? His illicit activities have been proven in a court of law and the judicial order you are removing shows some of this information quite clearly.—Ryulong (竜龙) 00:26, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

User talk:Coren
You are not welcome to add anything to any comment I have made on any page on Misplaced Pages. I do not care if it is simply a link to the discussion for which I refer to. I will not allow you to modify or add to my non-article space text in any way, shape, or form. Do not add anything to the thread I made on Coren's talk page regarding my issues with your behavior, as it is not what I would do, unless it is your own comment below my own.—Ryulong (竜龙) 01:45, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
For the last time, do not add this text to my comment on Coren's talk page. It makes it appear that I put it there, and I do not want it to be there. You have now reformatted my own talk page comment three times in a row. Cease and desist immediately.—Ryulong (竜龙) 01:49, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
I've reported this to WP:AN3.—Ryulong (竜龙) 01:55, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- Hi YRC, I've reverted you on Coren's talk and re-added the link you wanted to be there to a comment of mine below Ryulong's. Will you stop reverting now? If so, I'll close the AN3 report without taking action. Also, you're at 3RR at Stephen M. Cohen so you shouldn't revert that again today either. Mark Arsten (talk) 02:02, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- And on that subject, YRC, you are threading really close to a long-lasting block. SlimVirgin gave you quite a bit of trust in unblocking you, and I would have thought that your efforts to deserve that trust would have lasted more than a couple of days.
You're not going to want to hear my advice, but you need to heed it regardless: step away from the Cohen article, you're not able to control your behaviour there. This way lies trouble. — Coren 02:48, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Calm down
Did that really just happen? Do I need to explain to you why that's not going to fly? — Coren 02:44, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
A follow up on Bwilkins
Please see User_talk:Jimbo_Wales#A_follow_up_on_Bwilkins. Ian.thomson (talk) 15:43, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
- I saw - I think its enough he has dropped his admin account - and give him a break for a bit, we need to show more humanity here imo - regards - Youreallycan 15:48, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
You
You've always been firmly on the side of the angels in any article dispute I've seen you in, and you put a lot of time and energy into this project. I'd like you to stay. Good luck. --Anthonyhcole (talk) 16:09, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

Apparently Hughes has been, finally, arrested. See edit here. FYI. - 220 of 10:34, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
- Wow - thanks for this update - shocking - lets see how it unfolds - he's been bailed for extradition hearings- we still have after ... over ...two years ... the Julian Assange extradition going on - so I don't expect any action on this report in the near future - I see from the edit history diff they are edit warring to unduly focus on this in the lede - nothing changes here then - Youreallycan 01:24, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
The way en wiki is violated

Addition by an account without a single post for eight months - Hughes was arrested in London in August 2012 and is expected to be extradited to Australia. - User:PurpleWyrm - Opinon without any long term value in reality presented to the www as if truth without even any attribution that it is unlikely at all and pure POV biased opinion - I would say a checkuser would attach it to another account - but such is the way the en wikipedia appears to work - Youreallycan 02:03, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks
Hello friend,
Thanks for advising me that you mentioned me in that little tribunal going on. Though I've often disagreed with you, I've never doubted your commitment to this encyclopedia. I don't have much to offer in this specific matter except encouragement and a willingness to talk when you are feeling stressed. I truly wish you well and hope for a generally positive outcome for you. Take care and relax. Cullen Let's discuss it 17:12, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
So....
I see this ArbCom case you have, and I'm curious to know if you have considered the value of Parliamentary language rather than simply using pointed insults. Often, I would think the same concepts could be adaquately conveyed without the need to call people names or doing something that gets you blocked. -- Avanu (talk) 21:11, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
- Yes its difficult in such an anonymous environment - Attacks can be replied - There are are attempts to have me blocked - I am here to discuss but attackers are not bothered about that - still here , Youreallycan 21:15, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
- Have you thought about offering a civility restriction and a voluntary 1rr? I think you need to do something before this goes too far. Offering despite past differences, but in the hope you stay as an editor ----Snowded 22:57, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
Hey Rob
What the fuck... Stop edit warring on Ed M. Let it go... Carrite (talk) 22:23, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
- Not edit warring there - Ed Miliband - Youreallycan 22:30, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

- Well, obviously you are edit-warring on a matter concerning Miliband, though not on the bio. I think that you should leave the issue of Miliband's ethnic/religious status alone. Seems to me that he strongly identifies with his Jewish heritage and it is a significant aspect of his biography so the inclusion of him as a British Jew is not sufficiently contentious to be a BLP issue, in my opinion. I do not think, give the amount he has talked about his heritage, that he would reject the label either.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 21:38, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
- Well obviously I was in dispute and warring a bit - yes - there are heightened issues at the moment to mitigate - Your post here about Cohen is on the point - I reply to your question, Yes - I think the undue weight and focus on his Jewishness that some wikipedia users are attempting to portray to the WWW using En Misplaced Pages , he would object - that is one of my primary concerns/my primary concern - Youreallycan 21:44, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
- Well, my impression of the infobox on these ethnic group articles is that they are not intended to say "this person typifies x group" but to say "this well-known person is in x group" and in that respect the inclusion in the infobox for British Jews is sensible. His parents were Jewish Holocaust survivors, he has regularly discussed the matter of his Jewish heritage, and he is one of the most prominent politicians in the United Kingdom today. Seems reasonable to me that he would be noted prominently in an article that basically serves to discuss the contributions the Jewish people have made to the United Kingdom. Basically, I don't think it is a battle worth fighting. There are plenty of more legitimate and egregious instances of attempts to excessively associate Jewishness with an individual.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 22:59, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
- His parents are not holocaust survivors at all - unless anyone that was alive at the time of the holocaust can be described as such - one of his parents fled on a train - is a bit different - If you want to continue this please use the talkpage thanks - Ed Milliband is more a Marxist Atheist brought up by two secular parents than to be described and focused on his genetics - Youreallycan 23:04, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
