I saw the dispute on [[WP:AN/I]]. I have no idea what's going on, but you do seem to be in a rather thick edit war there with several other users. If they're really vandalizing the page, you should get help from other admins. If they're not vandalizing it, you should probably work more on seeking consensus—and you should definitely remember not to use your rollback button for anything except simple vandalism. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. -- [[User:SCZenz|SCZenz]] 04:04, 15 December 2005 (UTC) |

Could you fill me in on the cause for your 24-hour block on <!-- NOTE: if username has SPACE ' ' within it, use UNDERSCORE _ instead (as the SECOND parameter), its unfixable for logs, there is no wikilink to go to a user's logs. It's not the template's fault, its the fault of whoever's using the template. (ex: use {{Vandal|Willy on wheels|Willy_on_wheels}} rather than {{Vandal|Willy on wheels}} --><span class="plainlinks">[[User:Stephenj|Stephenj]] ([[User talk:Stephenj|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Stephenj|contribs]] • [{{SERVER}}{{localurl:Special:Log/move|user={{{2|Stephenj}}}}} <font color="#002bb8">page moves</font>] • [[Special:Blockip/Stephenj|block]] • [{{SERVER}}{{localurl:Special:Log/block|page=User:{{{2|Stephenj}}}}} <font color="#002bb8">block log</font>])</span>?

Revision as of 04:17, 15 December 2005
Please refrain from thanking me for an RFA I voted on Or any of the following...
- cruel and unusual punishment
- involvement in private conversations - if you aren't involved in the article or topic in question - dont jump in, start a new section
- personal attacks towards any user
Administrative responsibilities
What are the responsibilities of an admin? Im not sure I understand what they exactly can and cannot do?--Zereshk 13:20, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, I would be interested. Yet I must admit that I have clashed at times, with two editors in particular (Zora, and Roozbeh). So that may be brought up, if I'm put to vote. However, I do stand firmly on my ground and what I did. But that does not matter really, because I'm more interested in contributing, rather then housekeeping. It's why Im here. But being an admin would be beneficial, since we hardly have any admins watching over Iranian, Persian, Shia, Farsi, and related pages. So, I guess I could help there. But my interests are vastly more contributory in nature.--Zereshk 17:56, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
I'd much rather not be an admin, than have people dig out dirt from my past and lie about it, just as a way of getting back at me. I am a scholar and do not have time for such cheap fights. And how sad that "using the wiki code properly", is more important than actually contributing to the content. I really appreciate your suggesting me.
Thanx again.--Zereshk 02:25, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
Johntex
- I'm not sure how Blackcap came to that conclusion - but your oppose vote on Johntex's RFA seems somewhat pointless...he has like 69 support votes...without putting a reason, voting oppose is not gonna stop his rfa... freestylefrappe 02:50, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- I'm supporting Johntex. The Pikachu image is me being a snarky bastard, and is in response to Boothy, not a vote. Ëvilphoenix Burn! 02:54, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- From Snark:Snark also refers to a style of speech/writing that could loosely be described as "snidely derisive"; hence, 'snarkish', 'snarky', 'to snark at somebody'. (According to The Urban Dictionary, snark is a contraction of "snide remark".) Ëvilphoenix Burn! 03:00, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Tomf688 RFA vote
I'm trying to make sure that I take the time to thank everyone who voted in my RfA, and verify that they don't have any concerns over my experience, neutrality, etc. If you have a problem, please drop a line on my talk page and I will answer it as best as I can. Again, thank you. --tomf688{talk} 14:37, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Vandalism
Hey freestyle. 210.193.223.65 (talk · contribs) is repeatedly vandalizing the History of Islam article. Please block him/her, they have been warned many times. Thanks --a.n.o.n.y.m t 23:59, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks. Yes I will notify. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 00:03, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
No hard feelings?
Dear Freestyle, now that the issue over which we confronted is closed, I hope we can get over it and put the past behind us. I hope my motives were clear to you enough to understand them, as I also understood yours. I wish to congratulate you on your newly attained position, and I'm sure it'll be only for good to us all. I already offered you my friendship, and I'd be honored if you decide to accept it. Let's move on; life is too short and I don't want anyone to keep hard feelings when it's so easy to have peace between us. Sounds good to you?
Have a nice day, Shauri smile! 00:39, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks
Thank you very much for you know what. I know we've had our small differences. :) --a.n.o.n.y.m t 02:41, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
Re: OS
Yes, I know. It's getting tiresome and it has been going on all day. Please check his contribs and the edit history of the rfa. It will keep you updated on more such attacks. Also an arbitration has been started by him and another against SlimVirgin. Thanks. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 01:24, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
- Okay he is making attacks against me right here [1]. This is after your warning to him. Please remove this attack too. Thanks, --a.n.o.n.y.m t 01:35, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. :)--a.n.o.n.y.m t 01:46, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
- Oh can you please revert his changes on the rfa page since it is a personal attack. Thanks --a.n.o.n.y.m t 01:47, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
- Btw, you probably want to read the comment he left for you on his talk page. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 01:52, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
Strap-on dildo comment?
I would like to address any concerns you had, but I'm not sure which strap-on dildo comment you're referring to? Thanks in advance, Bushytails 01:58, 25 October 2005 (UTC).
I dont know whats happening, but somebody is trying to vandalise the page and submitted it for deletion! I removed the tag but then later on realised that there is a very active discussion going on here to decide whether the article should be deleted or not! I need some help! --Deepak|वार्ता 02:53, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
Titoxd's RfA
Thank you for supporting me in my RfA. I never thought I would get so much support! Thanks to your help, my nomination was the 10th most supported RfA in Wikipedia history. Now, please keep an eye out on me while I learn the new tools, ok? Thanks again! Titoxd(?!?) 17:54, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
RFA nom
I'll gladly accept, thank you. This ought be a fairly efficient way to find out how many people I've managed to annoy at one time or another, I imagine... I'll complete the on-form acceptance and questions either this evening or tomorrow (or so), depending on brain-power. Alai 22:16, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
- Hrm. Just noticed an oddity with this: your message on my talk page is signed and dated as "13 October 2005". Transclusion problem? Alai 23:34, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
- OK, accepted, and questions answered. Would you care to 'list'? Thanks again. Alai 01:46, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for your vote on my RFA
Now that the voting has officially closed, I would like to thank you very much for supporting my candidacy for adminstrator and as of 18:36, 28 October 2005 (UTC) I am an administrator. I will make sure to use the additional power judiciously and I welcome any comments you may have. --Reflex Reaction 19:00, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
RfA
I am not strongly opposing that he request comments from editors that choosed not to support his RfA, however I sure didn't appriciate the way he did it. Another thing that I don't think is fair, is that he accuse the candidate of doing something "bad" by allegedly trying to gather opposition against him. At the same time he, himself, leave this comment at BYT's talkpage: [2] which is most likely an attempt to do just that... -- Karl Meier 21:34, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
- Re: Your message - Exactly and that is what I tried to explain to Karl. I did that for people who voted oppose but had no idea what was going on and failed to comment. However, unlike Babajobu's action, going around and asking user's who vote in support to change their votes on another person's rfa (mine) is very bad faith. Thanks and see Wikipedia talk:Requests_for_adminship/Babajobu. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 21:39, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

XYZ
From: Title: The lives and times of the chief justices of the Supreme court of the United States. By Henry Flanders. Author: Flanders, Henry, 1826-1911. Collection: Making of America Books
"Col. Pickering, the Secretary of State, had substituted the initials X. Y. Z. XYZ Affair for the names of M. Hottinguer, M. Bellamy, and M. Hautval, in consequence of a promise by the Envoys that they should, in no event, be made public. "
I copied a huge section into: User:Jengod/John_Marshall/Flanders before I realized I was never going to boil down that much material. :) jengod 04:34, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- I googled them, and Y! has it too. I'll put their full names in the article: http://education.yahoo.com/reference/encyclopedia/entry/XYZAffair
I suspect it was something of an open secret. All the insiders knew the deal, but the general public was kept in the dark. jengod 21:45, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

RfA voting
I must say I don't get your vote on Wackymacs' RFA. He uses edit summaries about 60% of the time, therefore... he'll abuse the tools? I understand not lending your support for those, but really, is opposing him necessary? I'm not sending this message to Xoloz as his opposition makes a lot more sense, but edit summary percentage seems to have absolutely no connection to being an admin, other than it may be understandable that you want admins to be of the highest quality, but then again, we really need as many as we can get, provided they don't abuse them, and as far as I know, sub-70 edit summaries doesn't indicate abuse. Redwolf24 (talk) 04:59, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

I would appreciate it if you reconsider your vote at my RfA, based on concerns of the reason for your Oppose. WP:Point is in suspect, as one Supporter has noted. Another person has also voted Neutral with the same reason as yours. Please reconsider, and thanks! — Wackymacs 06:54, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

Clichy-sous-Bois riots
Nice... instead of thumping your chest and reverting my edits to the 2005 Clichy-sous-Bois riots, how 'bout you provide the needed citation? If not, then the statement should simply not be there. 24.211.0.91 23:57, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Quoted from my talk page: No. That's not my job. You added the reference, therefore you provide the website. Otherwise one has no way of telling whether you simply made it up. freestylefrappe 23:59, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Wrong... you seem to be quite confused. I removed a statement that had no source to back it up, and provided a proper source for the remaining text. Look again. 24.211.0.91 00:05, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Quoted from my talk page: You incorrectly removed a reference and an external link. The tense was also incorrectly changed to the past tense. Tense is always in the present, especially for current events, except when referring to actions that have specifically taken place in the past. If you want to re-add the link, do so without deleting content. freestylefrappe 00:10, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Does that include statements made on the page which lack any source? 24.211.0.91 00:15, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Quoted from my talk page: I neither understand what you're asking me on my talkpage, nor the comment "follow up made to the original Talk:page". freestylefrappe 00:19, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- My original edit *removed* a statement which lacked any source and tweeked an existing statement while adding a link to back it up with. Based on the article history and your responce above, it would seem you feel the only one allowed to remove content is yourself. 24.211.0.91 00:33, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Wolf picture
The wolf picture on your user page is labeled as fair use, and therefore shouldn't be on your talk page. Ral315 (talk) 21:43, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- Fair use means that the picture is copyrighted, but can be used by Wikipedia for educational purposes only. It being on your user page is not for educational purposes. It's annoying, but the problem is that someone else owns the rights to that pic...we're only allowed to use it by an education-only clause in copyright law. Ral315 (talk) 22:04, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Hi there
you rewrote one sentence on this article to erad as follows: 'The word ummah is widely used in the conception of a "nation" as those who share a common heritage.' I'm not entirely sure what the meaning is - could you maybe elaborate on Talk:Ummah? Of course, I'm probably just being obtuse (it wouldn't be the first time).

Avraam Benaroya
Hi there. Please take a glance at the Talk:Avraam Benaroya before considering reverting my edits. Thanks. --Damac 21:30, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
The topic of that subject is a character from Persian Mythology and not one from the computer game. Feel free to create a separte subject for that particular character as well as a disambiguation page if you feel the need to have the topic discussed.
I did not delete the content but moved it to the talk page with the suggestion of someone crating a separate article on the FF character. This is the normal procedure for that kind of topic. See the following examples:
I particularly suggest you check out Tiamat which is not only a mythical figure but also a Final Fantasy character.
It was removed from the article because it bears no relevance to the subject, which relates to the mythical figure Angra Mainyu and NOT the game character. Chelman 11:47, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
In reference to: User talk:Chelman#Stop:
- 24 hour ban? Based on what criteria? Your own? Somehow I cannot find anything relating to a ban in this case in this article: Wikipedia:Blocking policy. If you consider FF to be such an important piece of knowledge, make a page for it with the information that I preserved on the talk page. I can't do it since I have no knowledge whatsoever of children's toys and have no means of even remotely verifying the accuracy of the information. As to the relation with Zoroastrian belief I think that the categories the content of the main body of the article and the external references may have given it away..... Either way, I'm not too bothered about it, I would just like to point out that you have a most antagonistic style of communicating. Your unwillingness to comment on the article's discussion page seems to indicate that you somehow are only willing to stomp your feet and assert your position. Chelman 12:07, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

Zoroaster
The issue has been discussed at length on the discussion page. Please consult discussion pages before making significant changes such as this. See the sections on "Naming and dating convention" [4] and on "Most commonly used name". And by the way, the nearest equivalent to "correct nomenclature" is not Zarathustra, it's Zarathushtra.

Hungarian minority in Romania
May I ask why you reverted my last edit on Hungarian minority in Romania? I mean, I'm really not that keen on that piece of text remaining there, I just wonder what was the problem with it:
ethnic Hungarians who made up one-third of the population were not consulted: that's a fact, no-one would dispute it, and it is relevant for the topic of the article, isn't it?
"ethnic Romanians" instead of "Romanians": I thought it's better if we keep it clear throughout the article that we are talking about ethnic Hungarians and ethnic Romanians, that it, people of Hungarian or Romanian ethnicity, as opposed to Hungarians or Romanians, that is, citizens of Hungary or Romania--Tamas 19:48, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

"Dispute" with Bitola
freestylefrappe -- I don't understand why you aren't willing to engage in dialogue with Bitola. I understand that deleting copyvio material is of course something you can do without comment. However, some courtesy and a longer explanation are generally in order before a threat of banning. Additionally, deleting hir comments from your talk page is somewhat of a violation of ettiquette, and makes readers wonder why you are avoiding discussion. Is there some reason (is the user a known troll, or something) that you would revert a talk page comment without reply? See the last bullet here: Wikipedia:Avoiding_common_mistakes Glenn Willen (Talk) 19:33, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Normally I dont bother responding to comments on my own talkpage, but since you, Bitola, are engaging in an amazing level of BS and sockpuppetry, I'll leave a message here for other users. Bitola, any user who types in a single sentence of your version on Kumanovo will see that you are the one posting the copyvio from Popov. Any user is allowed to delete comments from his talkpage without justification. All information related to a page is stated no matter how much it may offend that city's honor. Your nationalism and nonsense are putting a strain on my patience. Unless you want me to lengthen your block I suggest your reform your activities on Wikipedia. freestylefrappe 20:04, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- While it doesn't offend me terribly to be conflated with Bitola, as a point of fact you should read our respective edit histories before jumping to conclusions. (I don't edit much around here, but I've been around much longer.) You might also compare our grasp of English grammar. :-P Additionally, I didn't say that you were inserting copyvio, nor that Bitola wasn't. (Check my comments on hir talk page, where I am doing my best to explain why hir edits are not acceptable.) I'm merely suggesting that you be slightly more civil. I'm also trying to figure out why you banned hir, since I can't see any edits on the page in question after you gave hir the warning. Glenn Willen (Talk) 20:15, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- Freestylefrappe, I'm going to have to ask that you stop removing content from that article without consensus. It wasn't acceptable when Bitola did it, and it's not acceptable when you do it either. If you have a problem with legitimate, good faith edits, please discuss on the talk page -- don't just pretend that calling it "nonsense" makes it OK to remove. I'm going to reinstate the relevant content exactly once. I assume you will then revert it, but I hope that I can get you to engage in constructive dialogue on the article's talk page instead. Thanks, Glenn Willen (Talk) 00:11, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
Hey man, what's going on there? karmafist 02:46, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Well, i've found talking helps avoid those situations. If his edits truly are BS, the consensus will get rid of them, but apparently that didn't happen at first glance since you broke 3RR so you'll have a bit more time away from it. karmafist 02:55, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
I would like to ask that you stop reverting Kumanovo without explaining yourself on the talk page. You have now reverted the page four times in twelve hours, and ignored several requests to explain why your preferred version is preferred. Neither User:Glenn Willen nor I understand why your version is better than Bitola's version, because you have not explained this. If you move the content you don't like to the talk page, and discuss why you don't like it, we can try to make the article better. Thank you, -- Creidieki 02:50, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi Freestylefrappe — you've been blocked for 24 hours for violating 3RR on Kumanovo (reported here). As an admin you ought to know better. If you are worried about sockpuppets, you can always get a developer to confirm your suspicions, though note that even if 62.162.225.230, Glenn Willen and Macedon5 are all User:Bitola, he hasn't broken 3RR (in the last edit war). — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 14:34, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hmmm, looks like Karmafist had already blocked you without noting it. I re-set my timer to comply with the original block. — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 14:43, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
I feel little tired about all this confrontations here. I hope that FreestyleFrappe will accept that other people have different opinion about how the Kumanovo page should look like and will accept my good-faith adds to the page. I’m not going to remove his adds to the page and I hope he will leave my adds as well. The worst he can do is to start revenge actions after his blocking expiration. However, I respect other people opinion and I will accept the overwhelming decision what should stay, and what shouldn’t in the article. I would like to stress several things. First of all, my last adds to the page are NOT copyvios. Also, I’m not representing myself as a Glen Willen, Macedon5 or somebody else. I just want to have the best article about Kumanovo without any offensive material that can irritate the ordinary Wikipedia users. Also, I would like to thank Glenn Willen, Creidieki, Bunchograpes, karmafist and Asbestos. They all expressed good will in order to resolve this unpleasant situation.

Hi there Freestylefrappe, its SWD316. I was wondering if you could leave an explanation, or tell me if you prefer, why you voted oppose on my RFA. Thanks! SWD316 22:36, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
If you do not mind my asking, why did you vote in opposition to my RFA? The main reason I'm asking is that you didn't specify in your vote, and seeing as I am fairly open to constructive critism, I'm intrested in seeing what I can improve upon.

thanks for letting me know. Since there was no block message on that user's page, I had no reason to suspect they had already been blocked ;] I'd check ipblock every time, but when you're nuking vandalisms at a high rate, it gets cumbersome. Glad to hear you guys are on top of it tho ;] --негіднийлють (Reply|Spam Me!*|RfS) 23:15, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Freestylefrappe, thanks for supporting my adminship bid - I'll do my best as an admin to help make the reality of Wikipedia rise to the level of the dream. BDAbramson T 03:17, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry - noticed the "no thank you's" rule after I posted - would be rather disingenuous for me to remove it now, but feel free. BDAbramson T 03:18, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

I saw the dispute on WP:AN/I. I have no idea what's going on, but you do seem to be in a rather thick edit war there with several other users. If they're really vandalizing the page, you should get help from other admins. If they're not vandalizing it, you should probably work more on seeking consensus—and you should definitely remember not to use your rollback button for anything except simple vandalism. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. -- SCZenz 04:04, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
Could you fill me in on the cause for your 24-hour block on Stephenj (talk • contribs • page moves • block • block log)? I assume there's some history there, but I wasn't able to tell from your block comment or his contribs. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 04:17, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
