Revision as of 11:36, 9 September 2007
Next project: List of groups that are treated unequally by not having an 'allegations of apartheid' article about them.
Out of interest, thoughts on User:Moreschi/Proposal? Please leave any comments either here or on the subpage's talk.
- Wikipedia:Fringe theories/Noticeboard needs more eyes. Please watchlist and feel free to comment. It's still a little baby of a noticeboard, and I'd like it to grow up big and strong.
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death - when we've first with dealt the trolls, the spamvertisers, and those darned unreferenced BLPs.
Paul, first epistle to the Wikipedians.
Regrettably, I am now an adminstrator. For admin philosophy, see here. For more general thoughts, see here. This means I can do all sorts of terrifying things and am A Thoroughly Evil Person™. Despite my awesome powers for evil, by some inexplicable fluke I usually try to do the right thing, sort of.
Most of the time I will reply to your comments on your talk page, Meladina excepting. Short replies will be left here, lengthier ones on your talk. Please remember to speak as thou wouldst be spoken to.
Wikilurve is undesirable bullshit to be avoided at all costs: please speak plainly. In a bad mood? Go on, have a snarl, I don't mind, you'll feel better for it, and I usually don't snarl back: you don't, however, get to snarl anywhere else. If I've been a dick, please tell me about it, and I'll try to make amends: I really can be tactless, cretinous, moronic, and sometimes just plain dumb. I don't troll, though, so any of the above emanates from stupidity, not malice.
All rights reserved, including that to refactor any particularly obnoxious signatures that arrive on this page. Over three lines of code in the edit window is guaranteed to piss me off.
Ways to find me: simply leaving a message right here is the obvious option.
- For matters arcane, you could try the email.
- Alternatively, I can be found - not always, but sometimes - on IRC, using the nick CMoreschi.
- If so, you'll find me in #wikipedia-en or #wikipedia-en-admins, sometimes #wikipedia.
- If you want to use GTalk, that's fine. Just ask via email for the name of my Gmail account.
Work currently in progress: User:Moreschi/Workspace 1 and User:Moreschi/List.

Francesca Cuzzoni
Have now finished the edit with another image, and a bit more tidying-up. Comments, please.--voxclamans 07:15, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- Have removed "stub status", so please ignore that bit of my e-mail to you of yesterday. Thanks.--voxclamans 09:23, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your comments. I've just done a bit of a "clean-up" myself. I hope any oddities of the prose are only in the quotations. Best wishes, Nick--voxclamans 08:46, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
Undid an edit
I just undid your removal of Riana's section on User:R/EFD. She's actually participated in that "EfD", which I take to mean that she isn't particularly offended by it. If she was, I'm sure she would take care of it herself (similar to how you're perfectly justified in removing yourself from the page; I wouldn't dare dream of undoing that edit). Just giving you a heads up in the interest of open communication. EVula // talk // ☯ // 18:25, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- Riana's removed it again, and I was talking to her privately at the time. No problem, though. Cheers, Moreschi Talk 18:37, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Holly Jones
Hi Moreschi: I noticed you deleted the Holly Jones article (log here). Not that I necessarily have an opinion about it, but was there an AFD discussion on this? (I can't find it.)
While I agree with the sentiments on keeping Wikipedia from being a tabloid, this girl's death was a massive media story in Ontario (CBC News even had a lengthy profile of the case). I don't mind having one article for the killer and the victim here, since it's really just one story. But there should at least have been a discussion on deletion. --Saforrest 19:00, August 23, 2007 (UTC)
- Your redirect to the article on the killer is fine by me. IMO this comes under the spirit of the biographies of living persons policy (which gives me greater discretion as regards deletion) - yes, she's dead, but she doubtless has living parents and relatives who could be harmed by a sub-standard biography of her (besides, what is there to write about her as a person? That she got killed? Some bio!). At any rate, the one-article solution is not a problem for me. Moreschi Talk 19:21, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Your edit to the flagged revisions page.
I don't much care about how that part of the system works. But you need to realize that people will now oppose the proposal because "ZOMG admin control of content!" and "ZOMG we'll never have enought people with the flag! It won't scale". I hope that you'll either revert yourself or respond to every party that makes one of those arguments. ... I thought autoflagging with the ability to remove was a reasonable compromise. I'm not sure what you'll suggest in response to those arguments.--Gmaxwell 20:42, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- My response would be...
- There are plenty of people who meet those requirements who should not be allowed near stable versions rights.
- Removing is always harder than giving, see adminship :)
- Hardly admin control of content. When this rolls out I plan to form a list of people to give the rights to. Non-trolls can list themselves on the list (probably right here, on my talk). and I'll dole out the rights left, right, and centre. Does that cover it? Moreschi Talk 20:46, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- It's obvious from the comments on the talk page that this won't roll out unless it is clear that "sighters" are much more common than admins. Do you want to grant sighting personally to most of the 50,000 or so editors who would qualify automatically, or do you have to know them personally first? PaddyLeahy 22:16, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
NCdave
At his request, I have agreed to assist and mentor User:NCdave. This is a result of a suggestion at his WP:CSN topic ban. Just wanted to let you know. --JodyB yak, yak, yak 11:43, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Faustina Bordoni
I've now "done" Faustina, so that's both of these difficult ladies "sorted", I hope! Best wishes, Nick--voxclamans 13:16, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
Cuzzoni and Bordoni
I am perfectly fine with you changing the rating I gave those articles. However, I think that if you are attempting to convince me that my reviewing technique is bad, you would do best not to suggest that I lack "a modicum of intelligence" or that my reviews are "banal and worthless". Captain panda 23:24, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
- Going by the other comments on your talk page, your "reviewing technique" appear not be so much bad as non-existent. Seems to be common fault with these ridiculous "assessment drives". Pure farce, and I'm completely fed up with it. Moreschi Talk 15:04, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Hello,
An Arbitration case in which you commented has been opened: Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren. Please add any evidence you may wish the Arbitrators to consider to the evidence sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren/Evidence. You may also contribute to the case on the workshop sub-page, Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren/Workshop.
On behalf of the Arbitration Committee, ArbComBot 00:04, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi Moreschi, I apologize for mentioning the dirty L word over there at first, it wasn't my intention and after realizing my mistake I had rephrased it. Since you have rephrased the statement that I thought was not appropriate, I have removed my entrance addressed to you on Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Digwuren. So I hope no harm was done and we can put this behind us. Thanks!--Termer 08:41, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi, Smerus has also started working on this article. I've just got in touch with him about your proposed revision. --Folantin 13:00, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- I have added comments on John Barnett and a number of 20th century composers. Please take wholesale anything you think appropriate and I will make any further changes in your workspace if that is OK. --Smerus 13:04, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Stop bullying
I was surprised to read the edit summary attached to your message to me today :"Final warning - thanks for heeding this". It shows that I am working properly due to your threats ! Stop behaving like a bully. I know I will not be able to contribute to Wiki for long due to unwarranted incivility of a handful of megalomaniacs who think new editors are servants of admins. I am not your servant and you are free to take whatever action you like. My students are senior to you, some of them are heads of departments and judges. Working under commands is not in my nature. You are deliberately trying provoking me to leave Wiki, without any reason. -Vinay_Jha 11:44, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- I'm sorry if it came across that way. Now you're citing your sources, I'm very pleased to have you around. Moreschi Talk 12:53, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
In the interests of transparency
This morning I unblocked Bharatveer (talk · contribs) so that he could have his say in the arbitration proposal you've opened. He's left a note on my talk in response. I'll leave him a message now. Cheers, ~ Riana ⁂ 12:23, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Sorry for misinterpreting you !
Even from the start I had no dearth of sources to cite from, but all my time was wasted in useless discussions. There are thousands of completely unsourced articles in Wiki. Normally, one starts with a stub, and then expands it. If I did the same, others (esp. DAB) might have asked me to provide sources, or added tags for citation, instead of abusing me. All other problems can be solved if we remain civil. Gentlemen and Civilisations are recognised by civility. -Vinay_Jha 13:03, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Absolutely. Good luck with your (referenced) work here. Cheers, Moreschi Talk 13:05, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
A personal attack targeting you
Toomas Hendrik Ilves (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) made a personal attack targeting you in the now deleted article Moreschi. I thought that you would like to know about this in case this user is stalking you and you did not know about it. Jesse Viviano 16:44, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Somehow I think the real President of Estonia would have better things to do with his time. I blocked this particular troll for impersonation and creating attack pages. Antandrus (talk) 16:54, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Lauren Caitlin Upton
You've claimed that Wikipedia is not a tabloid and therefore deleted this page. However, it bothers me that you just deleted it. There are numerous pages in Wiki that could be considered "tabliod" material. See: Diana, Princess of Wales, JonBenét Ramsey, Laci Peterson (These people are all dead, so lets see some that are alive). See also: Star Wars kid, Paris Hilton, Mel Gibson. These are not deleted. Please explain... Tdwinz711 20:39, 28 August 2007 (UTC) tdwinz711
- Because Wikipedia is not a vehicle for making private non-notable people look like idiots for no good reason. Moreschi Talk 21:24, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Who makes the determination that she is non-notable? I would think that since she won Miss Teen South Carolina, she is notable. There are plenty of other people that have wikipedia sites that are less notable than her, and some equally so. See: Nikkie Groat. Please advise as to what constitutes a notable person that they may have a wikipedia page. It seems as if it was an arbitrary decision. I understand not wanting people to put slanderous items in there, but having the facts of what was said is legitimate. Lock the page if need be, but to delete it all together is not a viable option. It undermines what wikipedia is all about. Furthermore, she is not private. When she signed up for the pagent (and again when she went on the Today show) she had signed a disclosure statement that allowed her image to be broadcasted. That is how her picture is on the Miss Teen South Carolina website.
OUTRAGEOUS!!!!! This block is outrageous and un-Wiki! Lauren Caitlin is about a TRILLION times more important, beloved and prominent than at least 99% of all the article subjects on this joke of a site.
WHY, OH WHY, are Wikipedia's administrators so freaking a***-retentive and have such an inferiority complex and fragile egos???
Do all of you HAVE TO ruin the fun and enthusiasm of the rest of us members JUST BECAUSE you need to feel powerful and important so desperately?? Are all of you school marm librarian types in wool sweaters with thick glasses, afraid of the thought of romance and fun?
SHEESH.
This Lauren Caitlin Upton Bio page better be approved quickly and available for work. America can't wait any longer for the Wikipedia Administrator Moron Club and assorted other freak Wikipedia unions to get a life.
Don't you people have JOBS, or do you just play with yourselves here while you're playing with and tormenting the rest of us contributors? Nleobold 00:04, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
Flagged revisions and autoconfirmation of surveyor rights
Moreschi, per the discussion here, I re-added autoconfirmation of surveyor rights to the flagged revisions proposal. I invite you to expand on why you think it's a bad idea.--ragesoss 22:23, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

- I have not been uncivil. I have made recommendations so that you do not waste administrative time on a fairly large scale. Personally, I still don't understand how you welcomed "Tommy's horny tits", but reported "DirtyTony" and "Globalistgirl" - please read WP:U. Moreschi Talk 16:32, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

- being an admin sounds fun, you don't have to do anything--Blue-Eyes Gold Dragon 17:39, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
- Wow, BEGD, that was pretty inappropriate. Being an admin is about using your judgement. Those usernames clearly fall way short of what we would block. I really suggest you brush up on WP:U - I need to read it myself once in a while, rules around here change pretty quick. In the meantime, please don't make below-the-belt comments like the one above. ~ Riana ⁂ 17:48, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

- OK, cool. /me lets BEGD huff on her Wikipipe a little. Now, go to bed, 100+ hours is desperately unhealthy, especially for a teenager! (And if you're living in Aus like me, it's late where you are too). </mothering> ~ Riana ⁂ 18:00, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Your user page protection cascading is inadvertently protecting Template:Multicol
Hello,
You have transcluded Template:Multicol into your user page, and because your user page is protected with the cascading option enabled, the Template:Multicol page is also protected, preventing it from being modified. Can you remove the cascading option from your user page?
— franl | talk ✤ 13:20, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- I believe this has been fixed. Apologies for the bother. Cheers, Moreschi Talk 15:26, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Do you want to say that Wikipedia:Serbian Wikipedians' notice board, Wikipedia:Hungarian Wikipedians' notice board and other similar notice boards are having right to exist but Croatian is not having this right ?? If you saying that this 2 can exist but Croatian not we do not have about what to talk because you thinking is against rules of wikipedia (POV) !!
- If you do not speak about that but about User:Votec and article Jasenovac concentration camp my answer is only that edits of this user are that this is his single purpose account , his edits are POV and his discussion with other users is against this wiki rules: WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL . Do you know what is worst in the end that I need to explain my edits which are always confirmed with neutral sources and in the end I do not understand how is possible that user with single purpose account recieve protection for his edits. I do not even want that article be reverted to my version (this do not exist) but to version which has been before Votec POV edits. In my thinking he is sockpuppet of blocked user:Velebit (which is not blocked anymore ??), aka User:Mario.radin, aka User:Guivon , aka User:NovaNova aka....I have asked for checkuser so we will see. --Rjecina 15:04, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- Sigh...look, I've removed both edit-warring sections: both the one on your noticeboard, and both the one on the Serbian noticeboard. I've also started a thread at Wikipedia:Administrator's noticeboard to get consensus on this. Moreschi Talk 15:26, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
