Are you bloody joking? {{ping|Sphilbrick}}, {{ping|Acroterion}}. I undid a improper close at [[WP:DRV]] and a administrator blocks me without warning and no explanation either.

Revision as of 12:29, 17 October 2016
ANI
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 02:42, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
- Advice for the future: Don't accuse anyone of lying. It's usually pretty much impossible to prove intent, and it's probably uncivil and an AGF violation to boot. If you have evidence someone just said something untrue or without foundation, you can say that. It's not uncivil. And it usually makes it easier to find agreement and get back to improving the encyclopedia.--Elvey(t•c) 08:35, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Elvey: I didn't accuse Nyttend of lying. I accused Nyttend of threatening to lie in order to get me blocked. Read the differential Nyttend even supplied.
- Here are links to the relevant exchanges by Nyttend[1] and Orlady[2] and then Nyttend's threat at the very top of[3] to get me blocked for repeat harassment of him when in the words of the blocking admin and himself said it wasn't harassment and he backed her at the time.
- Do you know that Nyttend in his pursuit of me has gone to an Administrator's Wikipedia Commons[4] talk page (Until this week when I uploaded a photo I've never edited at Commons) and used his backup account[5] to contact an administrator. Use of backup accounts are acceptable, but Nyttend edited from his main account one minute after using his Nyttend account. WP:Scrutiny applies, read the one and only reason Nyttend says[6] he'll use the backup for and compare it to his behavior, and I addressed this Acroterion at the time only to get rebuffed. Sphilbrick's reply[7] to Nyttend at Commons is quite interesting. He rebuffs Nyttend, pretty much saying he is irrational, and that rather than a block I should be getting a Barnstar. If you defend Nyttend's use of his backup, it is hard to defend a charge of forum shopping against him because he went to Acroterion for the very same reasons Sphilbrick had already dismissed.
- Do you know I once tried to work with him on a article only to get rebuffed. Read this and this[8]
- He's called me a stalker at least once[9] in a edit summary.
- Nyttend has poked before. The original dispute that led to me being blocked which was overturned by Sphilbrick and which nobody defended the reasoning for, occurred Nyttend revived the topic after it had laid dormant for over a day. I'll supply the differentials if you really want to see it.
- Note I supply differentials all the time. Been to ANI before, from both sides of a dispute.
- Yesterday I saw both my physician about my malignant melanoma( I had a recurrence 6 months ago after 20 years of being clean. My talk page archives[10] and user page have some mention of my melanoma history) and to see a person in regards to an offer I am being made for the rights to one of my ebooks I've written. Good stuff, not so good stuff, and I have things to do today too starting around 30 minutes from now that will keep me busy till afternoon Florida time....William, is the complaint department really on the roof?
You have filed the AfD but not actually put anything into the AfD discussion page. As that was confusing the daily log, I have created a framework page: all you need to do now is replace the part between < and > with your reasons for deletion. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 21:22, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
Interaction ban
Greetings, noting here that the community has enacted an one way interaction ban on you from Nyttend. Meaning that (per WP:IBAN) you are not allowed to comment on Nyttend in any way, edit his user or user talk page, reply to him in a discussion, revert in one way or another his edits or use the "thanks" function with him. There is a standard "exception list" on WP:BANEX and if you want to appeal the ban see WP:UNBAN. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:50, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
Continental Express Flight 2286
There is consensus on the Continental Express Flight 2286 talk page for using that name as the page name. This consensus is based on the fact that the NTSB report repeatedly describes the flight name as "Continental Express Flight 2286", as well as multiple media sources that used "Continental Express Flight 2286" to describe the flight, per WP:COMMONNAME. It would appear that you erroneously edited a direct quote from a media source, believing it to be editable content. I assume in good faith that this was just a misunderstanding, and am sure that with a more careful read, you will see that the quote is correct and that "Continental Express Flight 2286" is how the flight in question is normally described in common usage. If you disagree, please discuss further on the talk page for that article before making further edits. Thanks. Shelbystripes (talk) 02:59, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
Let's resolve this once and for all. Shall we leave it as Continental Express Flight 2286 or shall we change it to Trans-Colorado Airlines Flight 2286? MattChatt18 (talk) 17:09, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
Jacqueline Logan
Hello WilliamJE, I noticed that you recently deleted Jacqueline Logan from the List of people from Decatur, Illinois page and was wondering how you came to that conclusion. It is apparent that there is little, if any reference to her Decatur connections on Wikipedia but that does not mean that she is not from Decatur. I have found this quote on page 26, of the Sunday, August 8, 1926 Decatur Daily Review, Decatur, Illinois: "Jacqueline Logan. Decatur's own motion picture star, can be seen this week at the Avon In "Footloose Widows." The picture Is based on a recent story. Jackie has many ardent followers In Decatur." That was over 50 years before she was buried in Decatur and being described as "Decatur's own" would imply that at some point in time she had a close connection to Decatur. Is there a WP standard for being from a place? Can someone be from more than one place? I look forward to your thoughts. Thanks for your contributions to WP. BuffaloBob (talk) 18:13, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
- @BuffaloBob: Feel free to put her back in the list article but I'd also put that in as a reference both in her article and the list article. Logan's article makes no mention of Decatur. Though I will say something, sometimes a person will go to school in Foo when they are actually from Fooville. Years later an article will claim that person was their own. I saw that with one Phil or Joe Niekro and Bridgeport, Ohio. The brothers grew up in nearby Martins Ferry, Ohio per many reliable source but graduated from a school in Bridgeport. Notable people guidelines at US Cities WikiProject say lived or born not buried or went to school in Foo as criteria for adding a name.
- If my bookselling at Amazon (I have 16 books that I authored for purchase that have made me between $160 and $2,000 a month since April 2014) ever makes me a famous author, somebody might wrongly conclude I'm from Deerfield Beach, Florida because I went to high school there but in fact lived in next door Lighthouse Point, Florida Re-add Logan if you want. I make no objection. Cheers!...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:59, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
Contributing info to a discussion
Curious we are extended family of Clifford Brady who you authored an entry about. Have some photos if you would like them to add to the page. Don't really know how this all works. Thanks for the entry though. Grew up to stories about my Great grandpa Brady and looking at pics and newspaper clippings of him with Ty Cobb...but it was cool to see an outsiders input on it.
