Is there anything I can do about [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ramsquire&curid=1150005&diff=214468405&oldid=209748577 this]? A quick look at my [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Ramsquire contribs] show that I only made one revert. The tag was placed on my page after I warned Mtracy after his third attempt to re-introduce disputed information. A little background-- I am very certain that Mtracy is the reincarnation of [[User:RPJ]], a user who Arbcom [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/RPJ|blocked]] about a year and a half ago for continued violation of NPOV and NPA. Anyway, up until now, he's been relatively well behaved, so I let his POV pushing go. But if he is going to be putting bad faith tags on my page should I inform ANI or Arbcom. The ruling on Arbcom says that any admin can block RPJ, if the admin deems his edits as disruptive.

:First of all, you can obviously remove the warning, as you have done, and Mtracy really doesn't have a leg to stand on. I ran a quick comparison of their contribs, using one of [[User:Voice of All|VOA]]'s scripts, and I'd say it's quite clearly RPJ. They not only extensively focus on the same subjects, but the very same articles: [[Lee Harvey Oswald]], [[Jack Ruby]], [[Dictabelt evidence relating to the assassination of John F. Kennedy]], [[Clay Shaw]], and [[John F. Kennedy assassination rifle]]. I haven't dealt much with ArbCom, but I suppose [[WP:AE]] would be the best place to post if their restrictions are still in place. - [[User:AuburnPilot|<font color="#0000cd">auburn</font><font color="#EF6521">pilot</font>]] [[User_talk:AuburnPilot|<small>talk</small>]] 19:05, 23 May 2008 (UTC) |

User:AuburnPiIot
User:AuburnPiIot - is this a test account/sock of yours? - jc37 22:46, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yes. I initially registered this account for use with AWB, but now use it for general testing and for making edits when I don't wish to log in with my admin account (such as right now, as I'm accessing wikipedia from my blackberry). I've been meaning to unlock the user/talk pages and make the accounts more distinguishable, but it keeps slipping my mind. - auburnpilot's sock 02:20, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, thank you. Just wanted to make sure.
- Incidentally (considering that you blocked him at least once, which is listed) you may (or may not) be interested in: Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/PatPeter.
- Thanks again for the clarification. - jc37 02:35, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- No problem. I remember the name PatPeter, but I unfortunately don't remember the block or the circumstances that led up to it. - auburnpilot talk 14:20, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
User page protection
Thanks for the protection of my userpage. I'm a little concerned about this internet stalking threat, do you have any suggestions? There's precious little about me out there and I don't think they can really do much harm, but it is off-putting. Thanks. Wildhartlivie (talk) 04:27, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, I don't know too much about the subject, and haven't faced it myself. My only suggestion would be to ignore it, and try as much as possible to keep the specifics of your real life to yourself. Of course having not faced it myself, I'm sure that's easier said than done. If you are truly concerned that somebody is trying to track you down off line, rather than just annoy you online, removing the unnecessary real life specifics from your userpage would be a start. Also, If you use the same name (Wildhartlivie) across many websites, a username change could help hide the connection. - auburnpilot talk 14:19, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Editor652 again
Here are all the details, nicely presented. Kww (talk) 11:54, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Blocked. - auburnpilot talk 14:05, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Now I'm really confused
I looked at the reference again, and it must just be a formatting problem. It reads: Antilliaans Dagblad May 15, 2007 pg. 12, "Onderzook bij de broers Kalpoe", original Dutch text is "een beter beeld krijgen van de plaats waar, of de omstandigheden waaronder, een delict zou zijn begaan, of waar sporen van betrokkenheid bij een delict kunnen worden vastgesteld" (Dutch)
So, it was published by the Antilliaans Dagblad on May 15, 2007 on page 12, in an article titled "Onderzook bij de broers Kalpoe", with the original Dutch text being "een beter beeld krijgen van de plaats waar, of de omstandigheden waaronder, een delict zou zijn begaan, of waar sporen van betrokkenheid bij een delict kunnen worden vastgesteld".
So, what more is necessary? Kww (talk) 23:32, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Well, now, that is odd. I don't know what more is needed. - auburnpilot talk 23:35, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
HELLO... About Neal Century and Works
Sorry, but i'm not sure if i can write here or not! I dont really know this Site very much! Sorry Sorry in advance! Joanna
Hi, I've been reading all through this section and i would like to say that i know Century's Works since i've bought one of his albums. I've been working with them for about 2 years in 2002 but we didn't keep in touch. Albums are hard to be named, that's true because they are in fact only venyls. They do not have proper CDs out but "followers" can order them via the blog or via the web site. Actually i even didn't know that the web site is no longer available. After have read this section i edited the Neal Century Page as better as i could. I do not really know much about Works because i don't really like them. Too Rocky. I would like to ask you not to delete these pages since they reported true informations, maybe not completed informations but users are here for this, to edit day by day the pages. I've read on Neal Century's Blog that Wikipedia wanted to Delete the page, and that the WP2R called last morning Jimmy Wales's Office... that's why i'm writing here. I think the informations about Neal Century and The Work should only be edited as better as we all can. I think that's the spirit of this Site, isn't it? Hopefully, i hope my edits could have helped you and helped to calm down the situation. We know that Maurice Yandiorio, in art Neal Century is working out a very big project for Work's new web sites... where he has copyrights but the tracks are free to everyone. I think that's the spirit of the band is to give to everyone the possibility to read the informations not only in enlgish and have free access to their musics. Not for money. Anyway, i hope i did a good thing contacting you. Thanks a lot. Joanna. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joannannaoj (talk • contribs) 22:31, 19 May 2008
Hi, this is always me. I wanted to say that if you have a look to the people that have worked with George Michael (the singer) in studio, you can find Mr. Yandiorio in the credits. Also... in Valencia he worked for the sound track of a movie wich i don't remember the name of. The festival was something like "Valencia Movie Festival" not sure of the name of the festival. I've read it once in the blog but i couldn't find it but i've watched the movie. He did play at the Sopot Festival with some italian Singer. I think he did some gigs in Sopot and sang in the chorus of some artist. Well... tht's all i have to say actually. Thanks, and have a nice night. Kiss!

- Hi, Joanna. You are of course welcome to leave me messages here, and I will try to response as soon as I can. In the future, please leave your new messages at the bottom of the page, and sign them using four tildes (~~~~). This makes it easy to spot new messages, and identify who left them. I appreciate the background on Neal Century and his band, but unfortunately they both still fail our notability guidelines regarding bands and musicians (see WP:BAND for more info). Hopefully one day Neal Century and his band will be a notable success and will meet our criteria for inclusion. - auburnpilot talk 22:33, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Neal Century
On his Blog Neal Century says that wikipedia wants to delete his Biography... why? Non-Notable? Are you Joking? Just because you don't know him doesn't mean he doesn't exist. We are collecting over 150'000 sings to report a petition against all the users that want to delete the pages. Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia!!! More signs will be available on the blog in the next days to ask to Jimmy Donal Wales... the man that ownes Wiki to block these administration users. They are not good enough to cope with such a big thing as wiki... for sure! If someone reads... Sing the Petition! Maria — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mariabrumana (talk • contribs) 11:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Maria. Unfortunately, as I've stated on the deletion page and in response to Joanna above, neither the band nor Neal Century meet our criteria for inclusion. - auburnpilot talk 12:41, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
RtV
If I have to unvanish to oppose this candidate, that's fine. BobTheTomato (MrWhich) (talk) 11:04, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- The history of your talk page has been restored. - auburnpilot talk 12:39, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Please realize, people disappear for many good reasons. That I consider opposing this candidate worthy of "undisappearing" should tell you something about how strongly I feel. And I don't appreciate your insinuations at my talkpage about my reasons for disappearing. You have no idea (obviously) why I did so. Gwen played a part, but there were other concerns as well. In the future, please keep your speculations to yourself. BobTheTomato (MrWhich) (talk) 13:06, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, I'll share my opinion whenever I feel the need, but thanks for your concern. - auburnpilot talk 13:28, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Your opinions are fine. Your insinuations about my motives are unnecessary and uncivil. And I'm asking you politely to stop doing so. BobTheTomato (MrWhich) (talk) 14:14, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Look, I've made no insinuations and merely stated fact. If you're reading more into my comments, that's something you shouldn't do, as my statements should be taken at face value and nothing more. I assure you, I'm not one to make snide remarks or insinuations, and will plainly state my opinions. There was nothing about my comments, other than their exact wording, that you should be concerned about. - auburnpilot talk 15:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
A quick question, then
- ...RtV is not an excuse to disappear and reappear whenever you wish, with your history wiped away whenever you decide to vanish once again...
Would you mind clarifying what you meant by the bolded portions? Those are the portions that I was concerned with, as they seem to assert your personal views as to why I vanished. BobTheTomato (MrWhich) (talk) 15:42, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- They mean exactly what they say, and I'm sorry, but you are taking this far too personally. Would it make you feel better if I change the wording to "RtV is not an excuse for anybody to disappear and reappear whenever anybody wishes, with that person's history wiped away whenever that person decides to vanish once again"? Seriously, don't read my comments for anything other than what they say. No hidden agenda. - auburnpilot talk 15:47, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Okay, then. You really don't understand the assumption that seems implicit in your wording. That assumption being that I disappeared only to have my "history wiped clean." This implies bad faith on my part. I can't prove what seems obvious from your words, though, and since you completely disavow that you intended any malice in your words, I guess Hanlon's razor applies. And by that, of course, I only mean the literal interpretation, which would be that my friend named Hanlon has a razor I think might apply here, since being a pilot you need to be clean-shaven. BobTheTomato (MrWhich) (talk) 17:10, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Again, I'm sorry if you are reading things that are not stated, but I can't change that. If you'd like to continue playing semantics, please play elsewhere. - auburnpilot talk 17:51, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Neal Century
Good Morning. We talked to Jimmy Donal Wales and Mr. Mike Ingram... and inform you that you MUST now delete the page named Neal Century and Work. We have already taken actions. Thanks. Maurice Yandiorio —Preceding unsigned comment added by Torratte (talk • contribs) 21:01, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- If Jimbo Wales (talk · contribs) wants something deleted, he has admin rights and will do it himself. The article will be deleted anyway, per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Neal Century. - auburnpilot talk 16:48, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Friends
A belated thanks for fixing my bad revert there. I went to fix it after apologizing to the anon and saw you had beaten me to it. --John (talk) 00:03, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oddly enough, I was actually trying to fix the IP's edit, after quickly checking the reference, and hit an edit conflict. The anon changed it to 52.5, whereas the ref states 51.5. Either way, I knew 112.32 million didn't watch the Friends finale, as it would have been ~40% of the US population in '04. - auburnpilot talk 00:17, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks!
Thanks so much for your support in myRfA, which closed successfully this morning. TravellingCarithe Busy Bee 17:47, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Consensus is reached on the corrected lead for Hogenakkal falls
Please see [1]. Based on intensive and detailed discussions by about 13 editors the consensus is reached on the corrected lead. As per the consensus please change the lead to:
Hogenakkal Falls or Hogenakal Falls (Tamil: ஒக்கேனக்கல் அருவி, Kannada: ಹೊಗೆನಕಲ್ ಜಲಪಾತ) is a waterfall in South India, located on a stretch of the Kaveri (or Cauvery) River that forms the border between the Chamarajanagar district of Karnataka[1][2] and the Dharmapuri district of Tamil Nadu.[3][4] The exact location of the border near the falls is disputed by the two states, pending a modern survey.[5]
The falls area is a major tourist attraction in the region, known for boat rides using a traditional hide boat known as a Parisal or Theppa, and for its medicinal baths, and has been called "the Niagara falls of India".[6][7] Carbonatite rocks in this site are considered to be the oldest of their kind in South Asia and among the oldest in the world.[8].
After the change please edit protect only the lead to prevent further disruptive edits and allow editing of rest of the article that still needs corrections. Thanks Naadapriya (talk) 15:17, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
I need more advice
Is there anything I can do about this? A quick look at my contribs show that I only made one revert. The tag was placed on my page after I warned Mtracy after his third attempt to re-introduce disputed information. A little background-- I am very certain that Mtracy is the reincarnation of User:RPJ, a user who Arbcom blocked about a year and a half ago for continued violation of NPOV and NPA. Anyway, up until now, he's been relatively well behaved, so I let his POV pushing go. But if he is going to be putting bad faith tags on my page should I inform ANI or Arbcom. The ruling on Arbcom says that any admin can block RPJ, if the admin deems his edits as disruptive. Ramsquire (throw me a line) 18:50, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- First of all, you can obviously remove the warning, as you have done, and Mtracy really doesn't have a leg to stand on. I ran a quick comparison of their contribs, using one of VOA's scripts, and I'd say it's quite clearly RPJ. They not only extensively focus on the same subjects, but the very same articles: Lee Harvey Oswald, Jack Ruby, Dictabelt evidence relating to the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Clay Shaw, and John F. Kennedy assassination rifle. I haven't dealt much with ArbCom, but I suppose WP:AE would be the best place to post if their restrictions are still in place. - auburnpilot talk 19:05, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
