Hello, Alansohn. |

Hi how come you deleted my edit about Joe Fletcher, they are true so stop deleting them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.112.28.237 (talk) 18:48, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Hey, a couple of things. One, get a sense of humour, stop so self righteous and sanctimonious, and 2, add some instructions to your talk page that allows those of us who don't know how to use HTML properly (i.e. don't spend all of our time inside on a computer) to format our additions to the page properly and put them where they should go, because as it is I have no idea whereabouts I'm supposed to put this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.75.26.232 (talk) 18:27, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Welcome!
How do I respond??? My comments about Desmopressin were removed and have now been blocked, they are entirely true, my son did nearly die purely because of these tablets - it said so on his A&E admission. Parents have the right to know the true and possible effect of bedwetting tablets. Risk in know what equates benefit if even fitting is a possibe outcome, scientific words such as hyponatremia mean nothing to normal parents - death does!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.29.40.252 (talk) 07:24, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
Actually, it was constructive, I'm putting it back. thanks (in refernece to cowplain school) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.18.148.195 (talk) 20:30, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

DRV comment
I was not making a "threat", as you suggested. I would appreciate you withdrawing that part of your comment now that I've clarified [1] the confusion. Good Ol’factory (talk) 22:47, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
- You make rather explicit threats to delete the category in question if community consensus goes against you at DRV. What's the issue here? Alansohn (talk) 13:59, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
- Predictions are not threats. Saying that a CFD would likely result in deletion is a prediction. An explicit threat to delete the category would be him saying "no matter what happens, I will delete this category." postdlf (talk) 15:59, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, it was a prediction; nothing more, as I indicated in my clarifying statement. I would appreciate it if you would withdraw that part of your comment now that I clarified the confusion. Good Ol’factory (talk) 20:38, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

WQA regarding the above
Hello, Alansohn. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Wikiquette alerts regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. — Good Ol’factory (talk) 21:12, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
- It's good to see that manufactured "incidents" are what our admins deal with on Wikipedia. I have replied already regarding your continued trolling and harassment. Alansohn (talk) 21:47, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
- After reviewing the WQA, I came to the following conclusions:
- Good Olfactory's comment could not reasonably be construed as a threat. However, you are not required to change your reading of it as such. Ideally though, you should've specifically clarified that that was how you interpreted it, or better yet, apologised for the overreaction and refactored it.
- You are permitted to give notice and warn users that particular commentary will be deleted (other than block/ban notices) if it continues to appear on your talk page, and you've done so. However, you accompanied your notice with an accusation of harassment. Serious accusations require serious evidence; there was a failure to explain the (or provide evidence of) harassment by either Good Olfactory or Postdif - I would urge you to submit the evidence at the WQA if you have any serious evidence.
- You've continued to engage in uncivil and unseemly conduct, including personal attacks, assumptions of bad faith or other gross inflammatory commentary: [2] [3] [4] [5]. Of all the other diffs that were brought up so far, these were the ones that I considered relevant.
- You were previously under a civility restriction as a result of an arbitration case, and you are expected to avoid repeating the improper conduct for which you were previously sanctioned, if you wish to continue participating at Wikipedia.
- I note that there has been a significant improvement in your behavior since that case. but, there is still further room for improvement. Should you not make greater attempts to improve your commentary in the future, then as is standard practice, I'd urge that a sanction is (re)imposed on you. WQA cannot impose binding remedies, but a sanction proposal would be discussed either at an administrators noticeboard, or at an arbitration page. It is hoped, however, that you will make assurances to avoid repeating such conduct, and make those assurances mean something (by attempting to improve), so that the WQA may be marked resolved.
- I sincerely hope further sanction proposals do not become necessary, and wish you all the best in (what would hopefully be) your attempts to further improve at least some of your commentary. Regards, Ncmvocalist (talk) 16:11, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
Both Good Olfactory and Postdlf, who have been directly involved in this conflict, have imposed blocks and threatened to impose blocks for various manufactured incidents, despite their rather clear and continuing conflict of interest. This pattern of harassment has continued despite rather clear changes in the tone that they have requested. Good Olfactory, in particular, has made an effort to actively misinterpret any form of communication, whether he was involved or not, and no matter how trivial, as some sort of personal affront. Just as you make the far clearer and ominous threat of some oogie-boogie "further sanction proposals", the word "threat" that has become the cause celebre here was rather clear as well; If the category in question was approved at DRV it would be deleted via CfD. This is a rather clear definition of the word "threat" as "an indication of something impending" straight out of Merriam-Webster. As such, your bad faith insistence that "Good Olfactory's comment could not reasonably be construed as a threat" is uncivil and unacceptable; I will not apologize or make changes for what you describe as Good Olfactory's "overreaction". Despite Good Olfactory's persistent and abusive efforts to shut me up, I will not be silenced. As has already been done, I will make further efforts to tone down my remarks so that even the most sensitive among us can not be rationally offended. Best regards, Alansohn (talk) 20:07, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- That would've been a good assurance, had you not continued to engage in the same conduct that was found to be problematic. The problem is that when you make serious accusations as you've done, you don't provide serious evidence. This makes me wonder whether you do understand what one of the main issues is. You need to provide diffs of where they have imposed blocks and threatened to impose blocks for incidents where they have the conflict of interest you speak of. If you don't, then it constitutes a personal attack; that's why I highlighted the serious accusations require serious evidence part. Again, if you wish to maintain a claim of harassment, you need to provide diffs of that. I will more explicitly ask Good Olfactory to take care in his interpretations of what you say, though that should've been clear from the number of diffs I used in my conclusions. You are entitled to your opinion about my conclusions, but I have nothing to gain or lose by warning you (or in your individual interpretation, threatening you) - it's the standard way dispute resolution works (or even a consequence for) where an user fails to satisfactorily adjust his conduct voluntarily, and the standard way uninvolved users are likely to act. If you don't wish to heed the warning, that is your choice entirely of course. At this point, you've also accused me of being uncivil and I'm persuaded to suggest that the filers open the RfC/U so that the community can give it's view to you on what has been civil and uncivil. Unless you are ready to let your accusations drop until there is evidence (or further evidence) to substantiate your claims in the appropriate venue (RfC/U), I cannot in good conscience pretend that this is resolved based on an assurance that doesn't currently mean anything. Your response to this (if any) is likely to decide what happens next. Regards, Ncmvocalist (talk) 03:38, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- I am baffled by the lengths that are being taken over what you yourself call an "overreaction" on Good Olfactory's part and I have no interest in playing the Wikipedia justice game, a process even more dysfunctional than any other in Wikipedia. As I have no desire to play this game, I haven't sat around collecting diffs to prove what no one is denying regarding blocks made under a clear conflict of interest by Good Olfactory, though you can check my block log for details thereof. I am severely disappointed with your insistence that the word "threat" cannot possibly mean what it says in the dictionary, "an indication of something impending" plain and simple, and I personally find that insistence to be in bad faith. I hope you will be refactoring your remarks to indicate that this interpretation as something evil is a simple overreaction on Good Olfactory's part. As I have repeatedly stated I will tone down my remarks to avoid further misinterpretations and I am sick and tired of the continued efforts to manufacture a controversy where none exists. Alansohn (talk) 04:22, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- I've been extremely patient with you. Please stop confusing comments about you with those about Good Olfactory - I haven't said Good Olfactory overreacted; again, that describes your view, and yours alone, and I've only noted that was how you described it. Also, a conflict of interest only exists if Good Olfactory was not a neutral party at the time of using tools (emphasis added); your block log has provided insufficient evidence of that - it only shows that Good Olfactory cannot personally block you at this time. So, either you don't understand Wikipedia policy on the matter or are deliberately continuing to make serious accusations without serious evidence. It'd be unsatisfactory if you mere toned down some of your remarks, yet repeatedly continue to make the same kinds of accusations without the required type of evidence, Alansohn. Ncmvocalist (talk) 06:38, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

- Re: "I haven't sat around collecting diffs to prove what no one is denying regarding blocks made under a clear conflict of interest by Good Olfactory". For the record, I deny it. I had assumed such a denial would be implied by not responding to the original accusation. :) Good Ol’factory (talk) 06:02, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
- Re: your denial. Are you claiming that these blocks don't exist or are you claiming that you were not an active party to a conflict at that point in time? Alansohn (talk) 06:12, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

hi
vandalism edits by 98.101.104.146
Hi, I was going to suggest that one of us add a final warning to 98.101.104.146's talk page, but I saw that you already did. I have already reported the IP address on the vandal report page. gaidheal1 (talk♫contribs) 14:39, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
- Yet another rather determined vandal, despite all of our warnings. Alansohn (talk) 17:17, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for reverting a further three counts of vandalism to my userpage. I previously gave you a cheeseburger, but you removed it. I therefore assume you dont like cheeseburgers, so have a lollipop instead!:
Acather96 (talk) 20:12, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the lollipop! It probably has fewer calories than the cheeseburger, though it will rot my teeth. The message was removed in some overzealous antivandalism on this page on my part, so thanks for both messages. Alansohn (talk) 22:46, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi Alan. Just letting you know that I've tagged Woodbury Public Schools as a copyvio. Regards, Theleftorium 21:03, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Close of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2010 February 15#Category:Wikipedians who are recipients of the Commendation Medal

Hello, I am known here as User:Reenem, and I have seen your recent warning to the IP address of my school. This is the IP address of Torrey Pines High School. It just returned from a long block after a lot of guys here though vandalism was funny, and apparently, they don't get the message. I just wanted to let you know that you are dealing with something far bigger than you think. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.66.200.45 (talk) 21:28, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
Brass
Hi Alansohn, I'm unsure why you have reverted the brass page back to before my edits. As far as I can see the material I added was constructive and correct. The small amount of material I removed, dealing with the history of brass near the head of the page, was unreferenced and misleading and I replaced it with text which I believe to be much clearer and more useful.I think I'm going to revert to page back to include my edits but if you want to get in contact and explain the problem and any way I can resolve it that would be great (Michael D L Marshall (talk) 03:51, 25 February 2010 (UTC))
Thank You

Huggle error
I see you placed a vandalism warning on User talk:68.189.43.141, using Huggle. Unfortunately the link to the relevant edit was wrong, and led only to a "404 error: File not found" page. I have replaced the link with what I have no doubt was the correct one. I guess that the error was due to a bug in Huggle, but I thought I would let you know just in case you had made some mistake, and also because it seems that courtesy requires an explanation when changing someone else's edit.

I proposed an alternate to your renaming proposal at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2010 February 15#Category:Parsons the New School of Design alumni. Your thoughts would be helpful. --Orlady (talk) 14:19, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Thank you with your help of Eiza González
Hello, I just left this message to Altenmann (User_talk:Altenmann&curid=22678905&diff=347765047&oldid=347738460). While some of today's edit by the anonymous IP to the filmography were okay, this IP was introducing unsourced commentary into the article. With a popular artist like Eiza, this "fan-type" happens quite a bit and can take an article into where it is polluted with more fansite type edits.--Morenooso (talk) 20:08, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note. I will continue to keep an eye on the article. Alansohn (talk) 20:11, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Could you please look at Somos El Mundo and its talkpage
Hello, I have a slight problem on another page and noticed your WikiStars. On Somos El Mundo an editor made several edits yesterday. As with Eiza, I had problems keeping up with him. When he finally stopped (I imagine because he was done), I checked his reference. Unfortunately, it appears he translated the citation and posted it almost verbatim into the article which makes it a copyvio. Because I have editted that article and done revisions, I did not want to bump up against a 3RRR violation. I made a note on the talkpage but I believe the other editors don't know what a copyvio is. Could you please look at this article. You should be able to copy the URL and have Google translate it. Thanks, --Morenooso (talk) 20:58, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
