Hi Drmies. I quickly wanted to look-up Sachin Bansal for some information and of course my preferred go-to destination is Wikipedia. I was surprised to learn that Bansal does not have a Wikipedia article, despite the fact that he's a notable Indian entrepreneur! After a bit of investigation, I realized that Sachin Bansal article page did exist; however, it wasn't well written and hence redirected to his company page, Flipkart. I am writing to check with you if you would be okay if I remove the redirect; I am happy to re-write the article over the weekend. I believe that this piece of information deserves to be on Wikipedia. I will await your advice.

Oh my goodness! Not Sachin Bansal!?! Is he that guy that was involved with flipchart when a "delivery boy allegedly molested a housemaid in Hyderabad"?!? Are you a friend of his? Why are you looking him up?

If you are a good friend of his, and if he had nothing to do with anything bad that happened where this flipchart or flipkart company was involved, then you should tell him that Wikipedia is the last place that he should want to be listed!

@Amishah78: congratulations on your Masters' degree.

Amishah78, I cannot disagree with with MPS here. But speaking for myself, I can't forbid you to do that (it's not my place to "allow" it), but I strongly suggest you heed MPS's warning, and I hope that you will stick to our guidelines. Of course, if you have a COI, it would be a great idea to disclose that beforehand.

MPS1992 To answer your questions - Neither I am a personal friend nor I have any commercial interest. I was looking him up as I am writing an academic case study on eCommerce businesses in India. I have been an author with Harvard Business Publishing and Ivey Publishing since a while now. I had heard of the molestation case in Hyderabad; however, it wasn't Sachin Bansal. It was a delivery boy from his organization. Sachin Bansal is a notable first-generation entrepreneur in India and I believe he deserves a biography page on Wikipedia that is informative and adheres to our guidelines.

Drmies, Hi there. I reached out to you as you are more experienced with Wikipedia than I am. People like you who have been contributing with great passion also help amateurs like us. I appreciate MPS1992's viewpoint; however, coming from India, I believe this article will be useful to several who wish to access information at-a-glance on Sachin Bansal. And of course, I would never want to violate our guidelines. I personally consume information out here and would not want to contribute crap! I don't understand what "COI" stands for; however, I believe you are referring to any personal/commercial interest that I may have (which isn't the case). Once again, if you "guide" me (I haven't used the term "allow" this time :)), I will go ahead and re-write the article either this weekend or next weekend.

Hi, just wanted to let you know that I added an ALT 1 to the Redoshi DYK, trying to incorporate the reviewer's suggestion of a quote from a source and linking the source.

Hey, Drmies!

• Different spelling of the subject name may affect the course of research. I noticed that in different sources the subject is listed as Tu̇gȯlbaĭ Sydykbekov and Tügölbay Sïdïkbekov. By attaching Template:Authority control with relevant sources in it (VIAF, LCCN, ISNI), I believe this will significantly expand the range of further searches for information on the subject.

• About "patriarch of Kyrgyz literature", to my mind, this is most likely a kind of quite internal "nickname" that is used among a very narrow circle of people. I think this information is of no particular importance.

• Instead of Kyrgyz version of the article, you may have try its Russian version, because Russian language is more convenient for online translators.

P.S.: Feel free to use Template:Citation needed over the questionable information!

I have a few questions regarding the community block which I hope you can answer so I can ensure that I do not make any edits which could be viewed as being out of compliance:

A) Does WP:BLP refer only to living people connected with politics or tagged as politicians, or does it refer (given the "broadly construed" proviso) to ALL currently living people/individuals with articles on Wikipedia, regardless of politics? The latter is rather extreme.

B) Are deceased individuals (thus, NOT BLP) related to or tagged as connected to politics OK for me to edit? Or am I blocked from editing the articles of even deceased individuals tagged or connected to politics in any way?

C) Also, am I blocked from submitting for AFD any and all articles related to or tagged as connected to politics in any way? Does submitting for AFD count as editing? (I suspect it does but I just want to make sure.)

D) Is it possible and/or is there a statutory period of time I must wait to appeal (or request an amelioration or less broad construal) of the community blocks on BLP & POLITICS, as referenced above?

• I thought you were blocked indefinitely; I see now that you appealed to ArbCom. Welcome back, I suppose. I'm not sure why you're asking me these questions, or why you are asking these questions. I didn't impose the sanction. But some of these are simple.

  BLP obviously applies to all living (and recently deceased) people, politicians or not. If that's what was imposed, that's what it is. When "recently deceased" becomes "sufficiently dead" is a matter of judgment I suppose--but you've been editing BLPs for a decade or more so I really think you should know this already. AfD is a part of the editing process; what you can't edit you can't submit for AfD, or discuss at AfD, or whatever. As for the appeal period, I don't know what precisely was imposed on you and it's probably best to ask the closing admin of the AN discussion. Note that what I've written here is in direct response to your questions; it is not informed by a recent reading of that AN discussion or what the closing admin said, and I cannot speak for that closing admin.

There's a bit more to it, maybe; some Googling reveals that this may be a one-man crusade--but what sticks out most clearly is "It's all a bunch of nonsense besides being futile, because there's no such thing as a Tongva tribe", the kind of thing one hears from racists, and very much a way to make someone be invisible.

  • It is clear from their edits that the user wants the name of the article and the descriptor of its subject to be changed from the exonym "Tongva" to the endonym "Kizh". They are indeed skipping the process of seeking community consensus, but that's disruptive editing, not vandalism, i.e. obstruction of the project's purpose.

    Insisting on using an endonym is typically a form of promoting political correctness that could not be further from bigotry. I don't know if this user was coming from a place of good faith in this particular case because I don't possess the knowledge to make either assumption and the matter is fairly complex—the exonym "Persian" is preferred over the endonym "Farsi" by many of the language's speakers; "San" was once considered more politically correct than the exonym "Bushmen" and now it's not—but jumping to the conclusion that it was racist vandalism and blocking them without giving them enough WP:ROPE is so anti-AGF. (And even if someone was engaging in blatant racist vandalism, I can't imagine a scenario in which asking them "Did you have fun with your racist vandalism?" after blocking results in anything productive.) I suggest you formally retract your earlier remark and apologize and unblock them. If they are taught about the process of consensus building and about verifiability and reliable sources, they might have something constructive to contribute. If they continue to ignore our warning and refuse to engage in a discussion instead of bold editing, then we can block them again.

    • That is not at all clear to me, nor do I understand what you mean with "political correctness" here. I must have a quite different imagination than you do. It was clear to me that the editor was to some extent disappearing a recognized tribe. But I tell you what: I will unblock them, why not, since ROPE is fine with me.

      • My understanding is that by "there's no such thing as a Tongva tribe" they meant that there is no tribe named Tongva and that the tribe described in the article should be referred to as Kizh instead (on the grounds that that's what they call themselves), not that the tribe does not exist.

Is this where I add my 2 cents? Common sense should have told me not to do what I did last week. Sorry. I meant/mean to act in good faith. Endonym/exonym doesn't apply to "Tongva," which wasn't a language or a place until some said differently in the 1980s. I suppose Kichereno is an exonym and Kizh is an endonym, though Kizh doesn't sound Indian like Tonto who was a real Indian (Mohawk) playing a fake Indian saying things like kemosabe, which isn't as bad as taking something that isn't yours and making it yours or fake playing real, like affirmative action and Elizabeth Warren or Iron Eyes Cody, a Sicilian.Harryawhite (talk) 18:53, 22 April 2019 (UTC)    __DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-04-22T18:53:00.000Z","author":"Harryawhite","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Harryawhite-2019-04-22T18:53:00.000Z-Tongva_vandalism","replies":["c-Nardog-2019-04-22T19:04:00.000Z-Harryawhite-2019-04-22T18:53:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi, I noticed that there aren't many editors from Yemen so I decided to invite one of my friends who I rarely connect with him using the same network like 2 times in month and even less than 2 times in 4 months. The only reason I would connect with him in the same network would be if he has not enough data or we are in a public place where wi-fi is available for free . Would that be allowed?

Hi, Drmies. I noticed you removed the Utah Phillips song "Daddy, What's a Train?" from the List of train songs. I was aware that the article was being removed from WP as unnotable - and I agree with that - but the same does not apply to all references to the song. In fact, many if not most songs on the list do not warrant their own articles, but that does not diminish their significance as train songs. As far as that goes, Phillips' song is better known than most, enough that it garners a mention in Norm Cohen's Long Steel Rail, the seminal work on the subject. Thus, I've reinstated the entry (though of course, without its wikilink). I thought I'd let you know since I'm sure you made your edit in good faith and could not have known much else about the song.

  • Its been about 6 months since I floated the idea for discretionary sanctions at AN, I am hoping that a listed might help folks see the bigger picture. Also, I am hoping that if we look at the problem in its entirety it may help us see if any previous accounts may be still lingering on site. Assuming the blogspot website is correct about Middayexpress having a UK based isp address, its possible that Middayexpress may have been blocked earlier than s/he was and really is an LTA account. Finally, if the first proposal fails and the second yields no underlying connection, I hope that the list could be presented as to ARBCOM as evidence that the subject matter needs some high level attention. Independent on those instances, it'd be useful to have one master page where we can track all this as well since it seems the Horn of Africa is a delicate area for editors, admins, and others. Incidentally, you and the others are welcome to post to the page if you have something you feel should be added to it, so do feel free to edit if you need to.

    • Thanks again for taking that up, TomStar81. I am hesitant to really jump on board, for a couple of reasons, one of which is that it is such a mess, an almost intractable mess, and it will take considerable time and energy to know enough. But discretionary sanctions may well be a really good idea. Proving to ArbCom that it's a mess shouldn't be too difficult. I'm going to have a look at your document again.

      • When I have more time to commit to it I intend to look through the articles and the users listed in the SPI cases and see if I can't connect a few dots. If we can figure where the greatest amount of disruption is and whose doing it then perhaps we can make some progress towards stopping it - or at a minimum convince ARBCOM to take up a case on the matter.

You, Drmies, have sent me a message on my talk page referring to guidelines on "post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people". Could you provide a specific pointer to exactly what are the policies I need to be concerned about? If it is a link to a lengthy policy, maybe what part of the policy in particular is relevant.

Please explain to me what my site has to do with abuse?
I can add to my page what I want, as long as it has nothing to do with racism or terrorism or anything else.
I did something similar on my page in the German Wikipedia and it did not bother anyone. Reason: Was no abuse!

  • First, if I used "your" website, then the full page would be on my side, but because it was just a spreadsheet with the characters and the main games that I've changed a bit myself, I have not taken anything from "you" , In other words, the table on the main page looks very different than the one on my page. Secondly, this table is your own creativity and has nothing to do with your website. Furthermore, I have removed the associated links, except those of the games, but only because I did not think so.

      • These are typical admins excuse that the person "does not understand" and then points exactly to the Wikipedia guidelines. (My opinion) - And just because they are admin does not mean they can do anything. But now I know admins like them who are just not able to argue, do not control properly, claim that you broke a rule, and so on. But as I slowly seem to get here, you do not even want help. And then you do not have to be surprised that the ganezn Wikiepdias is an unreliable website. But if you're constantly reversing edits that have better or more information or deleting something and claiming that a rule has been violated, then it's clear that Wikipedia is an unreliable and sometimes incorrect source of information.

        I did not even use my own page as a web host, just put in a separate table with the character name and the game, no link, no description of the topic. As I said before, what if it was all invented? Is it also a "web host"? And since I do not do anything one-to-one, it's definitely not a web host. ---TheKerberos01 (talk) 03:13, 27 April 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-04-27T03:13:00.000Z","author":"TheKerberos01","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-TheKerberos01-2019-04-27T03:13:00.000Z-Drmies-2019-04-27T00:51:00.000Z","replies":["c-Drmies-2019-04-27T01:30:00.000Z-TheKerberos01-2019-04-27T03:13:00.000Z","c-Acroterion-2019-04-27T01:34:00.000Z-TheKerberos01-2019-04-27T03:13:00.000Z"]}}-->

I did not want to comment on the thread at AN since I wasn't willing to further go on with ranting about your blocks and opinions on that thereof, at AN. I don't have much knowledge of or insight into any pattern. You say this and go on to back it up with — I'd rather he retract and apologize unequivocally enough, so that we (or y'all) can consider the rest without this becoming solidified into a community ban by a kind of default. I am not surprised you did not delve into the matter at all but made a comment on the surface about an outcome you favour. This is why I accused administrators of the repeated inaction and "downplaying". Only if you could have formed an opinion on the matter before making a short-sighted comment, you would not have made my point for me. It would be more acceptable if you noted that the pattern I was talking of, is not a pattern or something along that line, I would personally disagree with you but atleast I would know an administrator at least looked into it before giving just any opinion. --qedk (t 桜 c) 20:39, 29 April 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-04-29T20:39:00.000Z","author":"QEDK","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-QEDK-2019-04-29T20:39:00.000Z-Comment_at_AN","replies":["c-Drmies-2019-04-29T20:44:00.000Z-QEDK-2019-04-29T20:39:00.000Z"]}}-->

• ..so that we (or y'all) can consider the rest without this becoming solidified into a community ban by a kind of default.
• ..all the more reason for Legacypac to act swiftly and decisively..
• I hope that those favoring an unblock (which includes a few editors/admins whom I respect very much) will suggest this to him as well, lest this indeed turn into something that will be much harder to get out of.

It is not difficult at all to see which outcome you favour. No one said you are "downplaying" anything w.r.t. sexist insults - lest you connect dots that don't exist. I quoted myself where I said administrators should stop "downplaying" the years of disruption Legacypac has continued. The point I made was It is absolutely insulting to see administrators ignore years of incivil and battleground behaviour to make a point. If you had tried to find a pattern (or lack thereof), you would understand my position.

I tried but I'm not good at this sort of thing. The user's edits are a mixture of clear policy violations (unsourced biographical data or unreliably sourced biographical data) and sneakier edits that shouldn't be done the way they are doing it, but not necessarily policy violations. They have a weird pattern of editing as well, and I strongly suspect this is not their first account (I have more on that I could share privately if you're interested).

@Ritchie333: I had a look at the contributions for CH-BUESI.

Hi Drmies! I hope you're having a good day. I'm messaging you about this user because you indicated in your block summary that this account was a sock.

• Look at the names they inserted. That's what I saw after I noticed the similarity in user names. CU placed them roughly in the same location--but the name they inserted is what clinches it already. What we kind of need to ask, and I'll leave that to you since you're about to look at the edits, no doubt, is whether we should revdelete the edits...

....blocking VeronicaPR (talk · contribs)/Sebastian80 (talk · contribs)/DendroNaja (talk · contribs) etc. was anyone involved in systematic reviewing their material on snake (and other) articles? Bellerophon helped clean up black mamba, which I buffed for FA-hood. Am in process of looking at the others now - Eastern green mamba (focussing on this one first), Western green mamba, Black-necked spitting cobra and Many-banded krait. None are coming up with copyvio alerts and his writing improved after the early flowery efforts on black mamba (i.e. I am not finding anything that indicates any of these should be delisted from GA-hood automatically as yet and figuring the best way is to just buff them and work them over to FA-hood).

• Hey Casliber--I don't think I systematically reviewed their stuff--just enough to make the sock identification. I cannot tell you exactly whether I spotted serious problems content-wise, but it is possible I just may not remember. Nor do I remember any details of who was involved, and if the block logs or talk pages don't show it, then I don't know where to look for it. Weren't they doing GA reviews as well?

Hi, I saw your comment but as I can't remember what it involved It's difficult to comment. As it was redacted as a "Serious BLP violations" I can guess but I'm not sure where I should have "reported this one rightaway"? AIV would have refused as no LV4 warning first, and the BLP Noticeboard says "repeatedly adding defamatory.... over an extended period." I have seen what I deemed to be very offensive things before which admins have not deemed worth redacting when blocking users. It appears to be a very much up to individual opinion/interpretation.... and as I'm err not considered neurotypical I gave up trying to guess what norms would deem RD2. If there is another place to report such things and/or any guidelines as to how to judge what admins will deem RD2 I would be happy to report.

• Hey--yeah, it was bad, and it was part of a pattern by a couple of IPs (possibly the same person) in two articles. I was alerted via User_talk:2601:188:180:1481:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63#Admins,_we_need_cleanup_on_aisle_2. If you make report at AIV, you can place a note saying "unacceptable BLP violation, revdel please", and any conscientious administrator will take that seriously. You can also drop a quick note on WP:AN, for instance. I wouldn't go to BLPN with something like that: you want an admin to take swift action. You can also check (this is what I do when I'm IP-slumming) Recent changes to see which admins are on call, and post a note on the talk page of the prettiest or smartest or nicest one... Yes, we don't all have exactly the same standards: I prefer to scrub on the side of caution, but if one turns you down, don't be discouraged--they're doing what they think is right. Ask another, and see what they say. You're also welcome to post here: there's a handful of wonderful colleagues who may notice it.

I have received a number of notification messages from you while I was in the middle of editing the Controversy section of George Eaton's entry. I find it extremely high-handed and disingenuous of you to interfere in the middle of my editorial process and then to characterise me as the disruptive one. I do not spend my life on wikipedia and so don't always know the ins and outs of how to do things technically (as in how to post remarks about remarks, etc.) That, however, does not mean I don't know what I am attempting to do in the first place. In the first instance, I wanted to eliminate the false conflation of the actual interview of Sir Roger Scruton by George Eaton and the article that Mr Eaton wrote on the basis of that interview. I also wanted to be more neutral about the nature of Sir Roger's remarks because otherwise wikipedia would be contributing to the defamation of this person when clearly that the at the very heart of the controversy in the first place. Then, closing out the controversy to date, I wanted to add the latest information about the "Scruton Affair" (as the New Statesman called it), by that same organ. In the course of this, I needed to check my own work and make sure it flowed correctly. You barged in and hi-jacked this process before I had finished accusing me of being disruptive. You owe me an apology for your baseless claims.

Whatever the New Statesman does or doesn't do is not really of interest here; if "Sir Roger" (sorry, but I find it a bit absurd to go all "Sir Lancelot" here) has a problem with the New Statesman, that's not a Wikipedia matter.

• Cygnis insignis, you don't need to explain to me how that is or isn't fence-siting; I dig where you're coming from. I think it's a position likely shared by many editors, at least the ones who aren't involved with or the victims of LP's other (alleged!) disruption. I am still hoping that LP sees reason and does the right thing... And that those other matters are dealt with, separately. It seems clear that there is something to deal with, but I think it should be done outside of that discussion.

• Drmies, for me, the word "phrasing" has one and only one usage... the Archer usage! (Although its description in that article isn't entirely accurate. It claims that it's "in response to any sexually suggestive remark", when it's really in response to innocent but carelessly phrased remarks which could also be interpreted in a suggestive TWSS kind of way.) And on another tangent, when I used an ellipsis above, all I could think of was Colbert reading "dot dot dot" from Trump tweets. Anyways, what actually brought me here was that on my kitchen counter I currently have some kumquats right next to some loquats, and that, naturally, reminded me of you.

You have reverted a number of edits by Risticutts, giving as edit summary only "rv unexplained". Several, if not all, of the edits which you reverted were perfectly constructive. For example, some of them replaced redlinks to Sungura with piped links to Music of Zimbabwe#Sungura, which is much more helpful. Perhaps creating a redirect from Sungura would have been even more helpful than changing the links, but reverting the edits was totally unhelpful. Did you actually check the links before you reverted them? Also, if you thought there were problems with so many edits from one new editor would it not have been a good idea to have dropped them a message explaining what your concerns were?

• JamesBWatson, ordinarily yes--but I already knew there was socking going on, the only question was who it was. Funny that you spent some time on the same one I spent time on: yes, the Sungura link was good and that you think a redirect would be good is exactly what I was thinking, but removing red links from the record label was not, IMO.

The fact was ... that Redoshi (pictured), a West African woman who lived in Alabama and died in 1937, was the last known survivor of the transatlantic slave trade? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Redoshi. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Redoshi), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

PESchneider is engaged in a rather hostile content dispute at WP:COIN and WP:BLPN. They state they are the partner of an article subject, Guy McPherson, and that recent reverts of their additions are "vandalism". In the midst of others trying to explain to them the intricacies of WP:COI, they made this comment on their own talk page. The last sentence, "This could become a legal issue as it seems Wikipedia promotes the misrepresentation of an individual on his BRP [sic]," looks like a borderline legal threat.

• I don't think I would block for that, but I hope someone dropped them an "only warning" pointing to NLT. So yes, I think it's just on this side of the borderline, though I wouldn't be surprised if some admins would block for the chilling effect alone. And if, for instance, that threat of a threat had been preceded by a bunch of douchebaggery, it might simply be the straw that breaks the camel's back, enough for a harassment block.

Destination maps have been discussed at WP:AIRPORTS many times and the general consensus is that they should not be included. For large airports it is quite difficult to keep them up to date and accurate. There is also the problem of some destination maps being unreadable due to the sheer amount of destinations. In the case of Stewart International Airport these issues probably wouldn't arise, but the project-wide policy is not to include them.

Hello. You said in February that if 86.24.199.0 starts mass-prodding articles again, you would block the IP. Now it's time to do it. The edits are obviously insane, including re-adding the PROD templates to articles that were prodded by the IP before (which is not allowed), e.g. [19].

Hello, Drmies,

I, Harryawhite, propose that the article "Tongva" be deleted on the grounds that it violates Wikipedia's Common Name Policy:

"What's in a name?" asks the Bard of Avon. "That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet."

"Well, a rose is a rose as you say," I say, "but a Native American is a horse of a different color. That which we call Kizh by any other name, e.g., Tongva, would stink to high Heaven."

Long before 1993, twenty-six years ago, which is a short time ago in the history of the Gabrielenos (from 1769), the only legitimate band of San Gabriel Mission Indians were doing everything in their power to hang on to their heritage. Persevering, they were hanging on as best they could dealing with priests and soldiers and the powerful nations and cultures of Spain and Mexico. And persevering to this day they hang on as best they can dealing with the United States, the most powerful nation and culture in the world. Now they have something else to worry about — the Tongva.

Doing what they can to hang on to what little is left of their heritage hasn't gotten any easier for the Gabrielenos. In 1993 some outsiders, non-Indian academics, etc., began attending their meetings and boning up on their culture. Then these attendees went out and attached the word "Tongva" (sounds like "Tonto") to "Gabrieleno" and — Voila! — the Tongva-Gabrieleno tribe (hyphen phonies) and the Tongva/Gabrieleno tribe (slash phonies) out of thin air, in the hope of gaining federal recognition and developing a casino and making themselves fabulously rich, basically.

Since 1993 the Gabrielenos have had to deal with the Tongva who purport to be Gabrielenos. There was no such thing as a Tongva tribe before 1993, sadly the Tongvas have been very effective in the promotion of themselves since then, thus they get more "hits" than the Gabrielenos, though they the Gabrielenos have been around since the first Spaniard called out "Gabrieleno" (adding the suffix) to some poor San Gabriel Mission (Native American) slave from the San Gabriel area.Harryawhite (talk) 23:27, 15 May 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-05-15T23:27:00.000Z","author":"Harryawhite","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Harryawhite-2019-05-15T23:27:00.000Z-Tongva","replies":[]}}-->

Listen, neither the slash group nor the hyphen group will ever receive federal recognition, because there is no such thing as a tribe of Tongva. Federal recognition is not going to happen for these pretendians, ever. As for developing a casino, the State of California denied them in 1994. A casino is not going to happen for these pretendians, ever.

But the hyphen and slash groups are far better, far more effective in the promotion of themselves (i.e., developing sources) than the original tribe, unfortunately; thus, Wikipedia gladly accepts articles such as "Tongva," "Tongva Populated Places," and "Tongva Language," etc., for publication, bogus though they may be; not to mention numerous others who are happy enough or gullible enough to publish Tongva articles, and books even, each of which does further harm to the San Gabriel Band of Mission Indians in their struggle to do what they can to hang on to what little is left of their heritage. And the Tongva will continue to promote themselves federal recognition or not, casino or not, come hell or high water. Make no mistake, each and every time someone reads the word "Tongva" the Gabrielenos fade a little further into history. As Tongva grows Gabrieleno fades. Any right-thinking individual would hate to see what little is left of their heritage disappear forever.

I don't believe that Wikipedia knowingly supports these pretendians in their efforts to promote themselves into a common and accepted name but they do; ignorance is no excuse. The Gabrielenos, the legitimate band of Native Americans, should not be discarded and abandoned in favor of a bogus band that gets "more hits" or has a "more common name" — give the Gabrielenos a break! — putting too high a premium on or giving too much credence to promotion, i.e., making "more hits," bogus or not, the be-all and end-all in the discussion for acceptance for publication, is a big mistake.

The Tongva admit in their Wikipedia article titled "Tongva" that the villages inhabited by the Gabrielenos (and other slaves of other missions) were inhabited by Native Americans who called themselves the "People of the Willowhouse." "Kizh" (the closest thing to a pan-tribal name for these Native Americans) or "People of the Willowhouse" is the only legitimate name, the only legitimate title for articles about these Native Americans or the villages they lived in or the language they spoke. Tongva this or Tongva that is illegitimate and harmful.

In closing, neither the Tongva-Gabrielenos nor the Tongva/Gabrielenos have the right to attach the word "Tongva" to "Gabrieleno," and then promote the hell out of themselves for the sole benefit of themselves. They are mercenaries. Furthermore, Wikipedia had no business accepting, has no business publishing "Tongva" on its website — it's a slap in the face to the Gabrielenos, "The People of the Willowhouse." What's worse, it's nothing less than blatant support of cultural appropriation, pure and simple and evil.

• Harryawhite, sure--but PLEASE let me give you some advice before you get blocked indefinitely.

  a. That edit warring, going back and forth and restoring your own edits, is going to lead to a block, no doubt about it. Stop fighting "in" the article, please.

  b. You are using a lot of words--too many for most editors, probably.

  c. We HAVE to go by what reliable sources say, and that is the problem here. For instance, in some of your edits you include a link to the Amazon page for a book--it is not clear whether that book is written by a reputable author, published by a reputable press, and can count as a reliable source (see WP:RS). On the contrary, User:Cuchullain points to what they think are reliable sources, and present an argument--your argument involves too much "That's my story and I'm sticking to it". Without reliable sources you won't get anywhere, and namedropping E. Gary Stickel, Ph.D., means nothing unless you present the published reference.

  d. I blanked what you wrote on Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Log/2019 May 14, since you're barking up the wrong tree--and that's not even a tree.

  In general, I strongly suggest you read up on what Wikipedia is and figure out how it works, before you start dropping these heaps of text all over the place--and that you consider that the reader/editor here wants short, readable paragraphs and, especially, reliable sources. And read this: [20]. Sure, there's debate, and this author says "Tongva" is preferred. Thing is, their opinion, argument and all, was published in a book, and that trumps a lot--and I doubt you're going to go to the University of Nebraska Press and yell at them for being cultural appropriators. We reflect, or should reflect, what the sources say. Good luck.

    • I'm sorry, I don't understand; I'm sorry. Let me try again. The general tenor of the first remark was, "My post was off-topic but your post wasn't?" Meaning also, you're on an arbitration page and you are including conversational and colloquial content that some might say was irrelevant, others might call appropriate, many apparently thought was puzzling. And: "That you call my note threatening is a clever rhetorical trick, by which you suggested that the person criticizing a comment of yours was actually threatening you personally." It's kind of like yelling "I'm being oppressed"--except that that guy was actually being manhandled. Like, if I were to scream bloody murder cause you came to my talk page to make comments, and I'd call that harassment or whatever. Some people do that. Yes, I think that crying foul over a DS warning when someone's already had one is a bit, I don't want to say "snowflakey" because that's usually a right-wing word, and I don't want to use the words "triggering" and "safe spaces" because making fun of those terms is usually a right-wing tactic to belittle the real trauma felt by real people, so Ima just call it exaggerated. Which I think I did. If I didn't, I'll be glad to come back and add more words. Atsme, you got better things to do than to try and either befriend or cajole me. We're just editors here.

      • In Texas, we call bullhonkey BULLHONKEY. For one thing, I didn't "cry foul over a DS warning" and if that's what you believe, that's your problem, not mine. I explained what triggered my request, and for you to intimidate me and try to belittle me over an innocent request that I felt would be helpful to admins and editors alike speaks volumes about you, not me. I know exactly what you did and what you're trying to do now, and I don't appreciate it.

Hi Drmies: It is interesting that you feel I am trying to insert language into articles from a conservative viewpoint. Take an objective look at any Wikipedia article about a current politician. Those about conservatives include far more criticism than those about liberals - this is not just my opinion, but a well-recognized fact. The articles about Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Hillary Clinton, and Bernie Sanders are no exceptions - they are written from a very supportive, left-wing viewpoint, rather than an objective, balanced viewpoint which would include criticism as well as support for various positions. A good example is AOC's support of the Green New Deal, which requires deficit spending and relies on the Modern Monetary Theory. While the Green New Deal is supported by environmental activist groups like Greenpeace, it has been roundly criticized by many renowned members of the scientific community as well as numerous economists. Yet to read the AOC article, you might wrongly conclude that the Green New Deal was going to boost the economy, rather than require an enormous investment of money and a massive increase in debt which even supporters like Ms. Ocasio-Cortez admit will be the case. However, no criticism at all of her support of the Green New Deal or its reliance on deficit spending, or indeed any criticism of her whatsoever, is allowed in the article, as it could never pass consensus of Wikipedia editors, who are by and large liberal. On the other hand, the article about President Trump paints him as a liar and racist - starting with the opening section. If criticism to this degree is allowed in an article about the President, certainly a bit of criticism is in order in an article about a controversial first-term representative. However, since the block I have not edited the AOC article to include criticism, however warranted - I simply fixed two sentences so events are now in chronological order JohnTopShelf (talk) 22:31, 18 May 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-05-18T22:31:00.000Z","author":"JohnTopShelf","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-JohnTopShelf-2019-05-18T22:31:00.000Z-Hello","replies":["c-Drmies-2019-05-19T00:15:00.000Z-JohnTopShelf-2019-05-18T22:31:00.000Z"]}}-->

• I got to where you said AOC's policy requires "deficit spending". We're not here to discuss politics; you can do that anywhere you like but not on Wikipedia. I do wonder, though--if you have a problem with "deficit spending", surely you're also against recent tax policies that blow the national deficit through the roof. But I really don't give a rat's ass for your opinion on AOC's this or that (or anyone else's opinion), and my opinion on it is also irrelevant (but I'll let you in on a secret: I don't have one). I don't know how our article paints the president--I have no interest in reading it, but that he tells lies on a daily basis is a well-established fact. Reliable sources say it. And here is the crux: if reliable sources say it and you're still not liking that it's in the article, your problem is not with Wikipedia editors but with Wikipedia's rules.

  Anyway, what I care about is that you seem to be on a crusade. You're not even denying your POV. I'm not about to read the AOC article cause I'm trying to watch Columbo here, but I will trust that there's enough editors active there who are keeping an eye on things. That you are not getting your way is too bad, I suppose, but not surprising since the edits I saw you make were simply not in agreement with the rules here.

Sorry to butt in but paid contributors are impossible to prevent and actually not against policy. It obviously creates a conflict of interest, so the guideline is to disclose when you are being paid. Such editors are added to tracking categories so they can face extra scrutiny for violating WP:NPOV. Disclosing payment is welcomed and if it wasn't, it would just go underground and we'd never know who was and who wasn't paid. Is there a policy against soliciting paid contributions on-wiki? I don't know, but perhaps there is. Is there a policy against joking about it? Almost certainly not.

I am not fully familiar with Drmies sense of humor, but it is not outside the general realm of possibility that all humor and satire could be banned (levity=bad) from Wikipedia. Is the admin noticeboard the best place to make jokes, probably not, but some people have sticks they need to remove. That said, maybe a specific joke ban or joke filter can be imposed on Drmies.

What if we paid him not to make jokes? He could be an undisclosed paid non-editor?

True, but how would we know if not through self-disclosure? Randomly encountering Wikipedians offering their services on Craigslist or eBay using their real user name?

Euryalus, at this stage in my life and my career I'd do just about anything to get paid, including making jokes, not making jokes, making not-jokes, and making serious remarks.

Yes, it is. Regarding the "instructions" from he paid editing company that tried to hire me, this edit matches instruction #1. this edit removes the same citation as instruction #7. These come after a series of anonymous edits on the article earlier in the day. I am not trying to accuse, I am assuming good faith and asking Drmies directly as I follow up on an issue while checking on my follow-up list related to this issue.

Drmies, Since you've decided that you should tag me in discussions with other users I am going to reply, but I had no intention of doing so previously. I have reviewed my post above, where I asked you a question about an edit, and then explained, with diffs and links, exactly why I asked that question. I did so in a respectful manner.

My experience has been the opposite, at least between Georgia and Virginia from the 60s to present, the Jocko type accounted for at least 80% of sightings, sometimes in later years with whiteface applied.

Ingleside Presbyterian Church is located very close to where I began my CCSF college studies about 45 years ago and I still visit that neighborhood from time to time. I will try to make a mental note to take some additional photos of the church next time I am close by. If I forget, please remind me. I am getting old and need friendly reminders.

Hello Drmies, I attempted an AIV report on User talk:Syafiqshahalam, which was declined (make sense since disruptive editing=/=vandalism on that noticeboard sometimes). So since you blocked this user before thought I would bring this to you, before I think about doing a ANI report. Since February, I have given them warnings for adding their person analysis/WP:OR, making a unsourced change/factual error, and adding unsourced content. Then after the final warning there was these two edits today, unexplained removal/incorrect content and more personal analysis.

In your perpetual search for youth cred, Dr mi estas, may I suggest that you avoid entirely any hint of touching a biography of a very dead person who crossed a pond to live in a country with margarine; especially as the sources are written in Foreign and not amenable to the English Professor Vacuum here.

• Did you know … that Antonius Johannes Jurgens (AfD discussion) once wrote a book entitled Butterine of margerineboter?
• Did you know … that Antonius Johannes Jurgens (AfD discussion) was nicknamed the prince of whales?

Of course, this very dead person is In the Nieuws, but only in the Foreign section, and we have got away with not telling readers about that nieuws coverage in the article. I can only surmise that the occurrence of "Hzn" everywhere is why there are so few consonants left, by the way.

I do not know whether Antonius Hzn was involved in Unilever's takeover of Joseph Lion's Boxmeerse Bacon Compagnie, which as the name suggests was a margarine manufacturer. But the Foreign Vijkeeepeeedijieer tells us that nl:Anton Jurgens once did something that was not against the law, according to some newspaper at any rate, which you might not have known either.

• Well, I have been reading this fascinating book, but it's not about your butterman, and I can't easily cobble a biography together from that source. The "German" note is interesting because Van den Bergh was a Jewish family, and the Jurgens were as antisemitic as they could be. The Jurgens family, after strongarming the Oss mayor and city council to propose a harbor close to their plant, essentially managed to drive Van den Bergh out of town, to Rotterdam. Even after the Union was formed they tried to sabotage every agreement they could. There's much more of interest--the German butter factories were built after Bismarck raised tariffs (sounds like a happening thing), and business decisions were heavily dependent also on American demand and policy. Anyway, this is one rabbit hole after another, but I have not yet looked at your IS source.

• Oh: I don't know what illegality you were pointing at--there were at least two (besides cheating a business partner)--there was some scamming pertaining to stock value and profit, but they also broke the boterwet by selling margarine packaged with an image of cows and meadows.

The boterwet was a Dutch law providing for the regulation of manufacturing and controlling the sale of butter.

It was first enacted in 1889^[1], and was partly based upon the British Margarine Act 1887, which had in turn been based upon the Danish Margarine Law 1885.^[2][3] All were nominally aimed at preventing the adulteration of butter with margarine (and other foodstuffs), but had been the result of lobbing by the dairy farming industry, which had come to regard the newly invented oleomargarine as a threat to dairy farmers' livelihoods.^[3]

An editor thinks something might be wrong with this page. They can't be bothered to fix it, but can rest assured that they've done their encyclopedic duty by sticking on a tag. Please allow this tag to languish indefinitely at the top of the page since nobody knows exactly what the tagging editor was worked up about.

I don't enjoy it. I've been too busy IRL to work on articles lately, and only filed the CCI when I did because I knew waiting any longer would just make the above "public view for 43 days" lie closer to not being a lie. I'm supposed to be enjoying a weekend in Tokyo now (long story; also my 31st birthday) but I've got an open request that I be sitebanned, and a hound or three who won't take a hint. Also, the lie that I have "five active IBANS and more beyond that which expired" has been repeated multiple times by several different editors in that thread, and this is the third time this year that people have tried to use this lie as a justification for sitebanning me. You can surely understand why this is extremely distressing to me.

• Sure, Hijiri--but that siteban was proposed by someone who didn't know what they were talking about, and it was shut down quickly; I think it's pretty clear that the editor who started the whole thing is not getting their way anyway.

FWIW, the most recent thread had three editors pushing for me to be CBANned, including one who did so repeatedly despite massive resistance, and in January/February there were at least three more, including at least two admins. All of these have been based on my having X number of IBANs (ignoring the fact that virtually all of them are long-since lifted and/or were only put in place at my request to protect me from harassment). It would be nice if such voluntary/self-requested IBANs weren't permanent and beyond the possibility of appeal even after it's become clear that they are serving the exact opposite of their original intended purpose (I e-mailed WTT, and I think all of ArbCom -- sorry, not in the mood to check -- back in November explaining those circumstances in detail, and never got a response), but they are not, and so every time someone with a grudge against me chooses to bring them up out of the blue (and it has been happening, on average, on a monthly basis, including from admins who should know better and really should be held to a higher standard) I'm both powerless to defend myself and terrified that this time they'll get their way.

Anyway, thanks for your birthday wishes. I'm still too busy to do a whole lot of proper article editing but the circumstances that led me to declare myself on break the other day have largely subsided.

Also, I forgot to thank you for shutting down that particular subthread the other day. I did really appreciate it, but I felt responding to the other stuff took precedence under the immediate circumstances.

Hiya! Would you consider changing their block to a conditional indef? This is the second time in a week they've been blocked for this exact behavior - edit warring, creating copyvios, accusing people of harassment for warning them and they've clearly read the warnings. I'd like to see that they understand that this is not acceptable behavior before they edit again, as with last time, they just let the block expire and still didn't communicate with other editors....Praxidicae (talk) 18:56, 3 June 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-06-03T18:56:00.000Z","author":"Praxidicae","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Praxidicae-2019-06-03T18:56:00.000Z-Golanette","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, one of my former CVUA students, Horst Hof, is in a pretty unpleasant situation at the moment - I'm wondering if you'd be able to help, or point us in the right direction to get whatever can be done about it done.

It looks like they're being targeted by a LTA, who IP hops and uses throwaway sock accounts to leave threatening messages on his talk page, and to stalk and revert his edits with clearly intimidating edit summaries (see, for example, this and this - usernames intentional references to user:Jackson Dionne and user:Timmee Williams). See recent comments on his talk page, since revdelled by Favonian.

Horst is pretty confident he knows who this individual is, and has quite a stack of evidence in the form of diffs from enwiki and various sister projects. He's e-mailed Emergencies, but hasn't heard anything back yet, and the harassment is continuing. I thought about going to ANI, but there's quite a lot of stuff that probably ought to be revdelled, plus it might end up being a bit of a wall of text - I was wondering whether you would be willing to take a look and suggest the best course of action, or point us at someone who you know if good at dealing with this sort of stuff? Thanks in advance for anything you can suggest.

Well, one of the things that I don't know is if the two named accounts are socks of 84101e40247, nor do I know right now if that matters. User:Girth Summit, if you are looking for a place to tell people which real-life person hides behind a set of sock accounts, ArbCom is really the place. At that moment it may matter whether all these accounts are the same, though I imagine that there's plenty of accounts to pull information from already. But I'm also kind of fuzzy about what you meant with the usernames being "intentional references"--do you mean that these accounts are likely made by a copycat of 84101e40247? Are you and Horst convinced that 84101e40247 is the master? But again, all this is better answered by ArbCom: they make the big bucks, after all.

As DoRD said, those two accounts are technically indistinguishable from each other and from previous socks. Whe comparing them to Zreglhv, there are some technical points I can make publicly: they use the same unusual OS, they use different browsers but very old versions of each, Jackson and Timmee are using a proxy, whereas Zreglhv is not, at least not an obvious one.

I love really good fruit pies. Rarely find them, though. Nectarine's a bit different - usually see peach. We had some really good peach crisps recently. My sister sent me pictures of a hummingbird family (sans papa) in her backyard. Pictures of the nest, pictures of the eggs in the nest, and pictures of the babies right after they were born. And the clarity of the pictures - didn't know my sister could take such professional-looking pictures.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:38, 31 May 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-05-31T20:38:00.000Z","author":"Bbb23","type":"comment","level":10,"id":"c-Bbb23-2019-05-31T20:38:00.000Z-Drmies-2019-05-31T20:31:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Just to clear up the stuff you're fuzzy on Drmies - sorry it wasn't clear before. Look at the accounts linked to the first two diffs I gave you - user:Iackson Dionne and user:Timmeee Villiams - these are obvious references to user:Jackson Dionne and user:Timmee Williams, which are blocked socks of 84101e40247. Each of these new accounts was used only once, in a way which I can only interpret as a death threat intended for Horst, and I assume they used these accounts to imply (falsely or truthfully - I don't know which) that they are 84101e40247.

As for the actual real life identity - sorry, that wasn't what I meant, I meant that he'd linked the recent threats to a series of socks and IPs that he'd been reverting. I don't believe he knows the actual real-life identity of this individual. Very brief background - Horst identified some disruptive editing in the area of Italian IPA pronunciation a few months ago. He and I started an ANI thread here, but it didn't really go anywhere. Since then he's been continuing to revert/warn/ask for page protection on the affected pages, and this activity seems to be what has triggered this LTA. Behaviourally, it looks like a fit with 84101e40247, but it could just as easily be whoever 84101e40247 is edit warring with.

@Bbb23: As for what we are wanting to be done about it, that's really part of what I came here to ask. We appear to have a long term abuser who is literally threatening to pay hackers to identify where Horst lives/works, and to murder him. I don't know whether that's a credible threat (or indeed technically possible), but it's obviously an unpleasant and stressful situation for Horst to be in, and he's currently staying off Wiki until he is confident that he isn't in actual danger (I've been in e-mail correspondence with him about all this). I think it calls for some kind of action - I'm just not sure what. I think primarily he'd like some reassurance that there's no way that anyone could actually trace where he edits from; whether there's anything else that can be done to prevent this behaviour is something I'd appreciate your thoughts on.

Drmies, if you think Arbcom is the right way to go, that's what we'll do - I'll wait for you to confirm having been through what I've just written though.

Yeah I'm surprised (or maybe not) that Emergency hasn't responded, and that's also why I suggested ArbCom. I'm sorry for what your colleague is going through: realistic or not, such threats are disruptive and revolting. On this end, the admin end, there's very little we can do--we could protect a page or two, but this harasser, whether it's 84101 or not, also hounds Horst, so there's a clear limit to what protection could achieve. GorillaWarfare, do you have any suggestions for where Horst might take this, if Emergency still hasn't responded?

ArbCom seems appropriate when Emergency can't get their act together (or are going deep undercover). I received this kind message on fr-Wiki.

Hi again - I'm just back to give you an update, and check to see whether you still recommend e-mailing Arbcom. Since I last posted here, Horst has received an e-mail from the Emergencies team, basically saying that they are reviewing the situation, but it will be a minimum of four weeks, and probably longer, before they are able to feed back to him. Horst has continued to receive threatening messages on various WMF project accounts from new accounts.

In the meantime, since Horst has stopped editing, the 84101e40247 seems to have renewed their long-running campaign of slow edit warring over Italian IPA codes with socks of ZenZung - Horst seems pretty confident that User:VgerOfrqaho and User:Nfuwt are this person, based on the pattern of editing and the timing. TonyBallioni blocked the Nfuwt, but VgerOfrqaho appears technically unrelated (although their first and only edits were four reverts of a ZenZung sock).

What he's primarily looking for is reassurance about whether or not it is technically possible for this person to hack his account to extract location details - basically, are the threats in any way credible, or can he just ignore it? It would also be great if anyone can suggest a way to stop the user from doing this, but he appreciates there's little that admins can do. Do you still think that an e-mail to Arbcom is the right way to go? Horst has one written and ready to send, but he's concerned about wasting people's time if the overlap with Emergencies is inappropriate. Should he send it, wait it out until Emergencies get back to him? Pinging Favonian, who has had some interactions with this individual, and GorillaWarfare (since you're on Arbcom and might have some insight into whether there's anything you might be able to do) - your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

News and updates for administrators from the past month (May 2019).

Administrator changes

Andonic • Consumed Crustacean • Enigmaman • Euryalus • EWS23 • HereToHelp • Nv8200pa • Peripitus • StringTheory11 • Vejvančický

Guideline and policy news

• An RfC seeks to clarify whether WP:OUTING should include information on just the English Wikipedia or any Wikimedia project.
• An RfC on WT:RfA concluded that Requests for adminship and bureaucratship are discussions seeking to build consensus.
• An RfC proposal to make the templates for discussion (TfD) process more like the requested moves (RM) process, i.e. "as a clearinghouse of template discussions", was closed as successful.

Technical news

• The CSD feature of Twinkle now allows admins to notify page creators of deletion if the page had not been tagged. The default behavior matches that of tagging notifications, and replaces the ability to open the user talk page upon deletion. You can customize which criteria receive notifications in your Twinkle preferences: look for Notify page creator when deleting under these criteria.
• Twinkle's d-batch (batch delete) feature now supports deleting subpages (and related redirects and talk pages) of each page. The pages will be listed first but use with caution! The und-batch (batch undelete) option can now also restore talk pages.

Miscellaneous

• The previously discussed unblocking of IP addresses indefinitely-blocked before 2009 was approved and has taken place.
• The 2019 talk pages consultation produced a report for Phase 1 and has entered Phase 2.

• If you try to fill Doktoro's carefully engineered English Professor Vacuum with American librarians, it will clog up the works, or at least make a mess.

  You might want to tell your friend about {{sfn}} and its |p= parameter for specifying pages; and that in the Dictionary Supplement, as is commonly the case, the author of each entry is at the end of the entry, with the name given in the catalogue being the editor.

  Professor James V. Carmichael Jr does not fill the English Professor Vacuum, either.

Hi Drmies, Hope you're well! As real life & the backstage wiki are just tooo exciting at the moment, I've been taking a look at these - like all our basic tableware articles they are pretty shit. So, in American, is there a minimum size for a pitcher? What do Americans call the little milk jugs in a tea set or at a restaurant?

I've also recently got to know about the charming Dutch Maiden (Nederlandse Maagd), after starting (yup, gulp) Personification, and adding to the riduculously-named Liberty (goddess), a relative of the Maiden. I bet there's a lot more to say on these, if you feel like it.

I don't see little milk jugs here: Americans are too obsessed with GERMS and whatnot. At Starbuck's and such places they keep the milk/cream (really, half and half) in thermos bottles that hold maybe three or four cups. At many other occasions it's just powdered stuff--I know, barbaric. I'd say something isn't a pitcher unless it holds at least a quart, and I think it must have a wide top, so you can stir the lemonade or sweet tea. A jug, isn't that something with an ear? Shaped like a gourd? As for Dutch maidens, besides my mother and aunts I know only one: Frau Antje. Shame I never got that on the front page.

I agree with bd2412 here. The articles are redundant as heck. Wikipedia articles are about concepts, not words, and it's largely the same type of container. The only real difference is that they're all called jugs in the UK, while the US call one with a large top opening a pitcher (and thereby the use of "jug" implies a smaller opening like a milk jug or growler.) still not enough to need two articles. oknazevad (talk) 16:59, 13 June 2019 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-06-13T16:59:00.000Z","author":"Oknazevad","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Oknazevad-2019-06-13T16:59:00.000Z-BD2412-2019-06-13T16:47:00.000Z","replies":["c-Johnbod-2019-06-13T17:20:00.000Z-Oknazevad-2019-06-13T16:59:00.000Z"]}}-->

That would be all fine and dandy except …

Two changes in form may be noted. […] The second is the change from the spouted pitcher to the medieval jug.

That is from a chapter of an English book by someone who used to be keeper of Medieval and Later Antiquities in the British Museum, talking about Stamford Ware. Xyr statement would not make sense if there were no technical difference in U.K. English between a pitcher and a jug.

For the past week or so Joseroyal has my attention. He comes up with rather useless edits. I went to the whole process of giving advice and giving warnings, but he seems totally unresponsive. Besides adding pre and post nominals to articles, he also adds unused fields to infoboxes, often just with the value "m". And today he started removing valid red links.

I can go on with bluntly reverting him, but I doubt that he will learn anything from that. Do you have any trick in the book to get the attention of the person behind the account?

• OK but what's so bad here? Anthony Raj is indeed the current principal, according to the website. I don't see problems with the infobox parameters--and Uncle, maybe they changed the infobox template because they were looking for some parameters that weren't in the other one? They do appear to be totally uncommunicative, and that's a bad thing; that, combined with the edit warring and the repeated warnings for those nominals, is highly disruptive.

• ALT 1...that Patty Willis and her sister Betsy Howes Sergeant were willed "one-half of my real and all my internal personal estate" by her mother's nephew Eliakim Willis, who also left his "wearing apparel" to his brothers Ebenezer and Jireh Willis, "to be equally divided between them"?

Eliakim Doolittle (1772-08-29 in Cheshire, Connecticut^[1] – April 1850 in Argyle, New York^[1]), the younger brother of Amos Doolittle, first cousin of composers Reuben Munson and Amos Munson, and uncle of senator James R. Doolittle, was a composer, schoolteacher, and singing teacher.^[1][2] His most well-known composition was the hymn tune "Exhortation",^[3] a fuging tune that was first printed in The Musical Harmonist (Jenks 1800) and later included in The Sacred Harp.^[4]

The son of Ambrose Doolittle and Martha Munson, he attended Yale University (then Yale College), gaining the reputation as a composer, but did not graduate, and became a school- and singing- teacher.^[3][5] He married Hasadiah Fuller in 1811, with whom he had six children (1 son and 5 daughters), and lived in Hampton, New York.^[3]

His Psalm Singer's Companion (Doolittle 1806) was 41 compositions (covering 48 pages) of psalm music for four voices,^[5][3] out of a total of 45 works that he composed.^[6]

Such works included Solemnity, another hymn tune published in Asahel Benham's Social Harmony in 1798, and the war song The Hornet Stung The Peacock that celebrated the sinking of HMS Peacock.^[7]

Later in life he was to suffer from what is now understood to be dementia and lived in Pawlet, Vermont,^[3] which 19th century chronicler of that village Hiel Hollister described graphically as "nervous and sensitive, impulsive and excitable, in tattered garb, with untrimmed locks and beard, in a state bordering on insanity, he wandered through our streets for many a year",^[2][3] before entering the Washington County poorhouse in Argyle where he eventually died.^[3]

This submission to Articles for creation is about a teacher who writes; an alien idea here at AFC. It is yet another missing article that we did not even know to be missing. But it isn't David Bigger or Robert Magill Young, at least.

Hi, I see you've edited the Seth Abramson page and reverted poorly sourced puffery from the page in the past. I strongly suspect that the account SanFran55 is a COI account or a sockpuppet of this account[25]. This account exclusively adds poorly sourced puffery to the Abramson page, as well as attempts to remove RS content which does not reflect well on Abramson (e.g. his conspiracy theorizing). Is this something you can look into?
