October 2014

Hello, I'm Abhi. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Sana Khan because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Please refrain from throwing wikipedia policies randomly to push your POV. You may discuss on article talk page content dispute, if any. Abhi (talk) 13:39, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Sana Khan shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Abhi (talk) 13:54, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Edit warring noticeboard notice

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Abhi (talk) 14:29, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Indicscript

I think WP:Indicsript is about lead section not about infobox, your edit on Telangana belongs to infoboxes about indic scripts.--Vin09 (talk) 17:56, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Edit warring

Your recent editing history at Gamergate controversy shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.. Edit warring violates Misplaced Pages:General sanctions/Gamergate, if continued, you risk general sanctions. Dreadstar ☥ 03:41, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

BLPcrime

So we cannot add anything about arrests, unless there was any conviction. Am I correct? Bladesmulti (talk) 15:06, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Request for help

Hi TheRedPenOfDoom, I was wondering if you could check out an article for me. I was trying to cleanup the article Kwabena Duffuor, as the MOS was butchered there. After I made my edit, I was looking at the history, which I should have checked first. It looks like an editor, who has made no other edits to Misplaced Pages, replaced the entire article with one that looks like a likely copy and paste job. This was obviously the reason the MOS was so bad. Had I seen it last week when it was made, I would have reverted but since those edits were made, there have been other editors adding content, so I really don't know what to do here, without stepping over other editors. If as I suspect it's a copy and paste job, than the added content is probably copyrighted and would have to be removed regardless. Any help would be appreciated. Cmr08 (talk) 02:54, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the help. The content added was copied word-for-word from the subjects bio on the Institute for Fiscal Studies website. They even copied the spelling mistakes. Cmr08 (talk) 04:01, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

question about Final warning

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Misplaced Pages's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Misplaced Pages page, as you did at Talk:Gamergate controversy. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 17:38, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Ah...I see, well I feel I should be able to report you for just removing my entry into the talk page. The talk page is there to discuss the actual article right? What I did was point out a flaw in it. I was making the claim that what was written in the article was a lie. I.E now that I was warned I was warned because I pointed out that the info was NOT sourced. I further mentioned that the only "source" for the claims made in the article was based on two youtube videos. Funny thing about Misplaced Pages though -- even though anyone can actually check these videos and see that I was telling the truth as the "person" in question really did say the things I claimed... since no "reliable source" (lol) has mentioned that said person did this, I am now warned for mentioning that the article wasn't based ion the truth. So, in other words -- discussing the article in the talk page is forbidden now? Well if that's the case, then I would like to nominate the whole article to be deleted and purged -- as it now clearly is only used as a propaganda piece.

Addendum; Also where do I report mods for abuse of power? Just deleting my claim on the talk page and not allowing anyone to even address it or giving me a chance to provide sources -- that reeks of power abuse.--Thronedrei (talk) 13:44, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Vandalism warning

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Misplaced Pages, as you did to William Lane Craig, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lexikon-Duff (talk • contribs) 21:57, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Just read https://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Blogs_as_sources

And you will come to the conclusion that this is in fact a reliable source, sry I don't want to hurt your hero.--Lexikon-Duff (talk) 22:04, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

You can write your argument on the talk page.

I've protected the article, let me know if the contested BLP material is completely removed or not. Dreadstar ☥ 00:02, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

If you take a nano second to look at the article, you will notice that the content is already removed for like 50 hours or something.--Lexikon-Duff (talk) 02:37, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

You might want to brush up on your math.you made your last edit at 22:05 and it was protected at 23:43 so your "50 hours" is only off by give or take 48 hours. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 02:58, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

Even in the article of Stephen Law himself there is reference in the link section to his blog.--Lexikon-Duff (talk) 19:27, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

Need help about a user

Edit waring with no reasonable claim. He is a fanboy who comes in different IP to promote his actor and de promote his opponent actors articles. In the article List of awards and nominations received by Mohanlal he is reverting a reliably sourced award category (Vanitha film award-Best actor) and adding a manipulated information about the award which is also unsourced. Initially the original status of "Vanitha film award" (Best actor in Leading role - Twenty20, Madampi, Akasha Gopuram for Mohanlal) was unsourced. He removed it saying unsourced and made a cooked up award by rediting it as (Best actor in Supporting role - Twenty20) that also wasn't sourced. Seeing this i reliably sourced the award with the whole winners list of Vanitha film award 2008. But still that fanboy is reverting it. (Further info : Twenty20 is a film in which Superstars Mammootty- the fanboys actor and Mohanlal- fanboys rivalry actor, acted together with almost equally important roles. I think the Vanitha film award for best actor in leading role for Mohanlal made the fanboy think it will define him as the leading actor of the film and it frustrated him. And i believe thats the reason behind his edit war. There is already an edit war going on Twenty:20 (film).). I appreciate your involvement to solve the problem.

Sorry, but You Fail To Understand The Consensus Policy

Read it for yourself. I'm afraid the fact that no concensus exists on the signature of BLPs isn't the same as concensus on BLPs were talk page discussion is recommended. The edits will return soon, but you are welcome to talk page discussion.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 22:04, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, but you speak nonsense. I put in the Huffington Post article because it was a reliable source which backed the Village Voice article. Your POV claim does not intimidate me at all.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 22:12, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Now I will follow Misplaced Pages policy and am informing you that I will report you for violating the three revert rule.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 22:22, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Sharad Pawar

Hi, Could you take a look at the article, Sharad Pawar. The criticism and criminal link sections seem WP:UNDUE to me. Some background . There is currently a GOCE copy editing drive underway and there is no point in adding to their work load if the sections are going to be trimmed. Regards, - NQ (talk) 11:06, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Yes they are undue, Sharad_Pawar#Land_allotment is also very detailed. Bladesmulti (talk) 11:10, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Yeah but I am not sure how to go about it. All these seem to be just allegations but looks well sourced and well documented in the Indian media. - NQ (talk) 12:16, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Dr. Fox effect, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Monotone. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for your edit. Have you considered updating the Patterson–Gimlin film article? And perhaps cutting it back to a stub? I reckon it doesn't deserve all that "allegations" and "analysis" stuff now (if it ever did). Anyway, nice find! The instructions for hiding the zipper at the back made me laugh. :-) Bishonen | talk 16:28, 9 November 2014 (UTC).

November 2014

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Tutelary (talk) 20:38, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
