Regarding El Machete Guerrero
Hey, I know you're trying to do good over at User talk:El Machete Guerrero, but I suggest that you might find it better to just disengage, as I did earlier. It's pretty clear you weren't intending to attack Machete, but to some it might seem that your continued conversation with him is an attempt at antagonizing someone who doesn't really understand our policies. I don't think this is the case, but I thought I'd leave you a message all the same. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 08:08, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- I understand that you're trying to participate in the best way that you can in this situation, but you are only making things worse at this point. Please, please step back from the situation. Machete is clearly taking your involvement as a personal vendetta at this point, regardless of what your intentions are, and that doesn't help things. He's already de facto banned (since, with a CU-supported sockpuppetry block, no admin is likely to lift the block), and there's little opposition to the imposition of a formal ban. Per WP:BAN#Dealings with banned users, continuing to deal with Machete at this point when it's clear your involvement just antagonizes him will just put your actions in a bad light. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 17:07, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Your reversions at User_talk:Polystyla were altogether excessive. It is generally accepted that users can remove any post from their own User Talk page, and you should not revert them to restore remarks of yours. In the case of removing what you consider to be personal attacks, either use the MfD process or post at WP:ANI to gain consensus support for the removal. In the worst case scenario (i.e. assuming that no one agrees the remarks should be removed), simply ignore the remarks and leave the page alone. In this particular case, I decided that the best course of action was to protect the page since it was apparently being used as a soap box, and an unblock should really only be considered for the master account. Bear in mind that this page being protected is the only reason you haven't been blocked for edit-warring (since blocking would serve no preventative purpose).

Thank you for setting up a transclusion. :) DurovaCharge! 02:26, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
FYI
I blocked your threat-spewing friend as a patently obvious sock. If he follows through and creates more accounts, a checkuser can be amazingly effective for n00b sockpuppeteers, so I would recommend it if it gets worse. Should that happen, if you want, just let me know that it is happening, and I can ask a CU to take a look.
Have a good night! (or morning, afternoon, evening...)

- Well, I wasn't watching your talk page before, although I am now.
- Redsred Without The Puppet Strings (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is fairly obviously a sock of Redsred (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). How I found him and his vandalism is a bit complex. There was a massive flood of account creations with abusive usernames by a vandal using proxies and a script. After getting everything sorted (at least what I can do), I was looking at Special:Log/newusers in case he repeats, and I happened to see a username mentioning "puppets". So I looked to see if User:Redsred existed, and if it was blocked. Both returned true, so I blocked the new account and then reverted his contribs.
- With regard to chess, it is hosted on Yahoo, and I'd love to play, but it is 02:15 here, so I really need to get some sleep. I apologize for that, and I hope to be able to play with you sometime in the future. For now, cheers! J.delanoygabsadds 06:17, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
"Spelling" Article
While I appreciate your efforts to keep the pages on Wikipedia clean, the edits I made on the "Spelling" article clearly were constructive. It stated that "Hercules" is a common misspelling of the "correct" "Heracles." This is factually incorrect.
Re:Signature
Is this OK then??? "C.U.T.K.D T | C" —Preceding undated comment added 15:12, 25 March 2009 (UTC).
- Yes that was a joke. I changed my signature as you requested, but added 3 extra <big> tags when I posted it here. Sorry if the humour was lost on you! C.U.T.K.D T | C 08:53, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Oh yes, please do! Any help (although I'm just focusing on PA's and incivility right now) would be appreciated. →Dyl@n620 22:36, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

The Green Serpent
Someone deleted The Green Serpent before I could put a hangon tag. It is a piece of literature and notable, and should be in Wikipedia and I am distressed by the deletion, what can I do. Are you an admin that can restore it? Goldenrowley (talk) 18:00, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

El Cartel Records
I might not know the policies of wikipedia, but it does not violate copyright. It is the official youtube channel and El Cartel Records owns the rights, so how can this violate copyright? TPTanque (talk) 05:22, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- Replied on your talk page.— Dædαlus Contribs 06:18, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- If it violates wikipedia's copyright rules and policies concerning external links, than how come I have seen this on other pages? Featured articles no less. And what's your deal? Why are you being so mean to me? I was only trying to link the youtube channel as the myspace channel had already been linked. What is so bad about doing this? TPTanque (talk) 05:33, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- Replied on your talk page.— Dædαlus Contribs 06:18, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- I spat back what they spat at me. They said I was vandalising when quite clearly I was not. I did not insult any editor so how can you say I did? It was not explaind properly and the only thing they explained is it is a copyvio when I disagree. I used it as a reference as I thought a reference is better than no reference. And it quite clearly has not been edited. I wont listen to you because you are being mean. I will listen to everyone else though as they have not shown the hostillity you have. And I still think I am right and when the channel is linked I will be proved right and you can all apologise for being so mean to me. TPTanque (talk) 05:45, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- Replied on your talk page.— Dædαlus Contribs 06:18, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- So if I tell you to never edit again and you do, I can revert this as vandalism per policy? I hate how you keep saying per policy. You obviously know I do not know policy so instead of saying per policy, direct me to where I can read what I am doing is wrong. Other wise you are just plain mean, per policy.

- Replied on your talk page.— Dædαlus Contribs 06:18, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- Then why aren't you blocked for disruptive editing? I can not find in those policies where what I am doing is wrong. There is no evidence that it is not the record label's channel, and therefore, per policy concerning copyrighted material, they can be linked. See again you are doing it! Saying per policy and not backing up your claims. You are now using Jazz's argument of copyvio, and are not using you agrument which makes me question your credibillity. When they link it on the appropriate sites I will link it, and then as I said earlier you can apologise for being so mean. TPTanque (talk) 06:22, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

- I'm not editing disruptively. So don't say I am. I am not linking to material that violates the creaters copyright. And I am absolutely right! There is none. I know wikipedia can be sued and I wouldn't have linked it had I thought it was not legitimate. You say I need hard evidence. I say where is the hard evidence for the website or myspace page? You think it is easy to get "hard evidence", then you provide me with hard evidence for these pages. TPTanque (talk) 06:59, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- I have replied on your talk page. And yes you are, claiming that no evidence is evidence is not how it works here. I have linked all the relevant policies, and I have taken the time to explain to you what you need to do to include the links. The discussion is over.— Dædαlus Contribs 07:08, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- Stop speaking on behalf of wikipedia because I don't think you are a good representative of the Wikipedia community. You are much too hostile. Why did you not follow my request and provide "hard evidence", I'll tell you why. Because you are a hypocrite! You tell me to do something when you wont even do it yourself! I will provide hard evidence when you do. So please proceed. You make it sound so easy, so then do it! You need to learn manners when speaking with others, period! TPTanque (talk) 09:38, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- I have replied on your talk page. Besides that, do tell me how exactly I'm much to hostile. You were warned against doing something, and then you went ahead and did it anyway. If you want me to stop being so blunt with you, then stop acting as if wikipedia owes you something, or that you're infallible. It won't get you far.— Dædαlus Contribs 10:20, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

TPT, you need to stop, and pronto. This is not how discussions should evolve. You think that YouTube vids should be allowed, we get that. However, the current consensus throughout the Wikipedia community - tens of thousands in the Wiki-en alone are of the opinion that they should not be. You will forgive me for observing that this sounds like shouting at the wind. If you want to seek policy change in this regard, head to the Village Pump and seek it there, or at the very least, get a wider read on the idea. Clearly arguing here and in articles is not going to be an effective use of your time here; Daedalus is poised to block you, and then editing will be impossible. Work within the community to find a consensus; that is the only way you are going to be able to proceed. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 10:25, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
TPTanque usertalk instruction creep
Could you please remove the instruction creep noting how 'the discussion is over' from his usertalk edit window please? I am not sure how he can be expected to move on if there is a constant reminder sitting there every time he edits.
You are a good egg, but that sort of behavior is inviting others to cast a gimlet eye viewing of your reactions, and that would be off-point. I understand he's gotten your goat, but you need to take a step back now. You've warned him, and if he continues, you can get concurrence from other admins and then request his block. If you don't want to read his posts, delete them (the point will soon be made, and he will stop posting). I will point out that I am not involved in this discussion, and have rendered no opinion on this matter. I have also told TPTanque to seek outside input from the Village Pump. That is pretty much where grassroots campaigns for solid change evolve anyway. Ease up, buddy. :) - Arcayne (cast a spell) 10:33, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

- Okay, i don't mind replying here; its the way I usually proceed anyway. Anyway, its at AN/I, and others can handle the issue from here on out. Go get some rack time, soldier. I've let TPT know of the ongoing AN/I as well, so he/she shouldn't be bothering you any more. Well, that's the intent, anyway. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 10:57, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
