Stylization of the "common name"

In January 2013 there was a "RfC on COMMONSTYLE proposal" at WT:AT in which you expressed an interest. FYI there is a similar debate taking place at the moment, see Misplaced Pages talk:Article titles#Stylization of the "common name" -- PBS-AWB (talk) 12:13, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Away team

Am I guessing right in assuming you never watched Star Trek? Because this is just wrong. Viriditas (talk) 01:51, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

Please see the requested move discussion here. My concern is not with the formatting of the dab but with the target of the title. In your previous edit, you mistakenly removed one of the major uses of the term. Regardless of the primary use, the video game is not the target. Viriditas (talk) 02:15, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
Your guess is wrong. I'm guessing you've never read WP:MALPLACED, though, nor the edit summaries directing editors to WP:RM instead of creating the malplaced disambiguation page. Also, no uses were mistakenly removed. The article Star Trek does not MOS:DABMENTION "away team". -- JHunterJ (talk) 14:04, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
JHunterJ, your edits, your removal of accurate information, your reverts to incorrect primary topics—all of it was unsupported and basically irrational. This is not the kind of behavior we expect from an admin. The video game has never been the primary topic at any time. Why you would restore this inaccuracy when informed of it is mind boggling. You appeal to rules as if they somehow allow you to do wrong things. I've seen you do this before. Viriditas (talk) 18:12, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
Viriditas, your edits contrary to the consensus guidelines after those guidelines were pointed out was irrational. This is not the kind of behavior we expect from editors. The video was the primary topic for some time. You ignore rules as if they somehow don't apply to you. I don't remember our previous interaction, but I'd guess you were wrong then too. -- JHunterJ (talk) 13:25, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
What part of the word "guideline" is giving you difficulty? My edits were entirely in concordance with the facts and the consensus now formed on the RM discussion. 1) The video game has never been the primary topic, yet after this has been explained to you, you keep adding it back, in error. 2) Your removal of key entries from the dab page is in error, and your removal of those entries demonstrates you are more concerned with following the letter of the guideline rather than keeping Misplaced Pages accurate. This edit demonstrates poor judgment, and in the future, I will not be relying on your judgment again. Misplaced Pages is not a bureaucracy. That's the policy you violated by insisting we follow a guideline over good judgment. Viriditas (talk) 04:42, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Consensus is forming in the current discussion. Once the discussion is closed, then the consensus will have been formed. It's not a complicated distinction. Your addition of incorrect entries demonstrates that you disagree with the disambiguation guidelines but haven't gotten consensus for ignoring the rules here. You're more concerned with your opinion that keeping Misplaced Pages accurate. -- JHunterJ (talk) 14:56, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Wrong again. Either your reading comprehension is poor, or there is a serious competence problem on your end, perhaps a combination of both. Your most recent edits demonstrate this problem. There was never any community consensus to redirect the away team article. How in the world did you decide to redirect it to a video game article when all of the links show this is not the primary redirect? And furthermore, why would you delete the page history? Now, you've created an enormous amount of work for competent admins to do. Your involvement in this debacle makes you ineligible to use the tools, which you did anyway to promote a singular POV not shared by the community. Before I take you to ANI, I will ask you one last time, why did you redirect the article to a video game, and why do you continue to modify the dab page to support that view, when there is zero evidence supporting it? Viriditas (talk) 19:52, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Wrong again, indeed. Other editors have also told you to wait until the RM finishes, instead of treating it as a fait accompli. You failed to distinguish me from EEMIV when asking why EEMIV decided to redirect it to a video game article. No page histories have been deleted, although I did fix the mess you created when you assumed fait accompli by temporarily deleting one article in order to split its page history. Your statement re my being "ineligible" to use the tools reflects your continuing disconnect from reality. Please, do take me to AN/I if you feel like wasting more time. -- JHunterJ (talk) 20:15, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
As a result of this answer, I am composing an ANI report at this very moment. EEMIV's decision to redirect the article to a video game article was never supported by anyone /except you/, and by doing this, you violated PRIMARYTOPIC as well as community consensus. More recently, you have attempted to promote this erroneous primary topic with your admin tools, making you INVOLVED. Is that clear? Viriditas (talk) 20:20, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
None of my admin work there has done anything except fix WP:MALPLACED, leaving me still quite uninvolved -- I have never edited the video game article except to restore the needed hatnote AFAIK, and I'll continue to use the admin tools to fix the problems that require them. Clear? -- JHunterJ (talk) 20:36, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
You enforced the actions of a single user against community consensus, actions which erroneously redirected an article to the wrong target, and you enforced these changes, without consensus, on the disambiguation page pointing to these targets. When your errors were pointed out to you, instead of taking responsibility, fixing the problems, and moving on, you denied there was a problem, used your admin tools to enforce your views against consensus, against PRIMARYTOPIC, and against INVOLVED and NOTBUREAU. To make matters worse, you then blamed others for the problem. I hope that covers it. If I missed anything, let me know. Viriditas (talk) 20:45, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
You've missed: (a) your assumption of bad faith; (b) your disregard of the guidelines; and (c) your treatment of a current RM as a fait accompli. -- JHunterJ (talk) 20:52, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
