My Mother is a Tractor : Deletion

Hi Celarnor. I know I cannot stand in the way of a tidal wave of wiki opinion but just wanted to add some notes for you.

• I'm originally from Australia but have not lived there for 8 years, hence those edits are the work of whoever - but not me. Upon checking Qworty's link I see they were added on June 6, 2006 - one of the busiest weeks of my year (exam week in Shanghai).
• It may be self-published but, if you follow the Amazon sales, it's usually only outsold by "Learning to Bow" in the pantheon of 'JET' books.
• Notability does not seem to matter much to Indiana University and Dokkyo University who utilise it as a standard text in courses WP:BK - Point 4
• It's archived by both the National Diet Libary (Japan) and Library and Archives (Canada) WP:BK#Threshold_standards
• This book has been independently reviewed by Japan Visitor, The Crazy Japan Times, Rocky Mountain JETAA and Rough Guide Japan WP:BK - Point 1
• As for personal non-nobility that's not in question here, and neither would I ever assert it - although some have alluded to it. FYI I have had other work published in major media such as The Japan Times, Shanghai Daily, Fukuoka-Now, Asia! and Voyage.
• Lastly if anyone have ever written a book one would realise the path of 'vanity press' is much easier one to tread than the continual slog of agents and publishing houses. Qworty obviously doesn't like POD/"Vanity Press' Talk:Trafford_Publishing and has deleted all other references without waiting for judgement here, so one must presume deletion a fait accompli

Given the last point I have therefore saved a copy now as a last hurrah, expecting the worst. Good evening and good luck. —Preceding comment added by Nklar (talk • contribs) 15:46, 01 May 2008 (UT

A guy from NET is harassing me

I have asked a few people to if they could look into this. This guy http://en.technocracynet.euDISABLE/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user=358 Network of European Technocrats - Jure Sah . He is this guy here http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:89.212.75.6 DustWolfUser talk:89.212.75.6 .

He showed up out of the blue and put a spam sticker on the Technocracy movement article and also my user page... I feel like he is stalking me or harassing me. Could you look into this? Maybe ask him to leave me alone ? I explained to him that it was not me that put the NET site up for deletion. Thanks.

Behind the Great Wall

Hi Celarnor I am Wuyouyuan from the french Misplaced Pages fr:Utilisateur:Wuyouyuan. I live in China, ordinarily in Tianjin. today i am in Beijing as you can see with my IP. Since April 8, Misplaced Pages is reachable in China without proxy or anonymizer, even zh.wikipedia . But the problem with forbidden words is still current. Perhaps you know the fr:Lunaf Gong. I can display these pages using a anonymizer with cryptage feature, but not edit it because of the Open-Proxy block policy of Misplaced Pages. fr:Utilisateur:Gribeco, who lives in Japan, said to me you can do something for me. If you have a moment of time to waste. Please write answer here, not on the unstable IP (sorry for my poor english; mon chinois est pire). 123.112.81.218 (talk) 03:41, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Closed proxies and the Scientology case

Apparently, users of your closed proxy are not permitted to edit Scientology-related articles. I have filed a request for clarification as to whether users of closed proxies such as yours were intended to be included in the topic ban: Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification#Request for clarification: Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Scientology. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 13:44, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
