2009
Happy new year, Allie! Here's to a quiet and peaceful 2009. All best wishes Tvoz/talk 10:32, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
Happy New Year!
Dear Alison,
Wishing you a happy new year, and very best wishes for 2009. Whether we were friends or not in the past year, I hope 2009 will be better for us both.
Kind regards,

Hi Alison, I don't think we have met, but I've heard you are one of the better checkusers we have. There is no big rush on this, but if/when you have the time do you mind looking into something to see if I have enough for a checkuser, or tell me if there is anything else I can do? The user above was indef blocked quite some time ago, since then he has created well over a dozen sock puppets, so many that some have not been added to the list. The latest sock blocked was User:Xx emote xx, now he has created another account User:Remote peace. I have dealt with this user so much that I can just tell when it is him based on his edits and his actions, but to someone that isn't very familiar with the situation it's hard to tell sometimes. I have never been wrong about an account being a sock of his so far, checkuser has confirmed several of them. I'm nearly certain that he has a whole drawer of socks and that a checkuser could uncover them, and also confirm the remote peace account. Thanks in advance.

Quick rename request
Hi Alison, I'm Eric, sysop at es.wiki. It's done, that account has been renamed to "Vándalo xxx" and the user page and discussion page redirects deleted, there's no connection remaining to your name. Greetings from Spain, Ilfirins (talk) 09:11, 14 January 2009 (UTC) PD: please excuse my bad english
Picture of Alison
Wowsers, that's a gorgeous picture, Al. PS: It took me months, to overcome my shyness to tell ya that. GoodDay (talk) 00:07, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
- ?? That one? --->
- That's Julianne Moore - I only wish I looked that well :) - Alison ❤ 00:17, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Jesus christ - I came here to see a lovely picture of the wonderful Alison and all I get is Julianne Moore :-( Then Jimbo's face popped out at me and I got scared!

Oi!
Sorry to disrupt, but we have a new JA/G marionette: MbrongDaIsla (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki). Mind cutting the strings of the other marionettes? -Jéské Couriano (v^_^v) 00:44, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Heya! I ponder whether to ask a big "yes, you are banned and not welcome here" confirmation on ANI. Whatdayathink? -- lucasbfr talk 11:19, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
- Asking whether to ban someone who's unblock request is "Unblock me or I will sock for the 901st time" probably would be one of the shorter, more one-sided discussions in ANI history. SirFozzie (talk) 11:41, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
- I'm in a playful mood. That could be fun :) -- lucasbfr talk 12:17, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
- Seriously, can we just decline and protect his talk page. Stringing this sous-pont dweller serial sockpupeteer along only encouarges him. Do we really need to "confirm" this block with the checkuser who issued it? Surely, if Alison didn't think he was a sockpuppet, she would not have been the one to block him in the first place? --Jayron32.talk.contribs 14:51, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

banned user
Hi Alison, I hope you are fine. I need your help. I have the impression, that banned User:NisarKand has once again created new sockpuppets. Could you do me a favor and check the following new users:
They have the same field of interest, the same writing style, and the same ambitions, as it seems.
Thank you! Tājik (talk) 14:30, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Protection request
I promised I'd leave for a while, but I got a little curious and one thing led to another...anyway, I recommend that you or any admin semi-protect Jeremy Hanson indefinitely, essentially for the same reason as Kim Hagger. The reason will be evident to Alison, and if other readers see this first, ask her and note the page history: by the way, the vandal in that article's history could use a sock template. There's stupid site politics and there's the biography of this real-life person who's very likely to get caught up in BLP problems at some point because he shares a name with a certain other fellow. I think this is important enough to sneak out of my little hole and actually ask for it.
On a not-so-serious note, I did not know that it was forbidden to create usernames containing the word "BEANS." I further did not know that if you created the username "foo BEANS" it automatically means you are a sockpuppet of "foo." :-p 129.49.7.125 (talk) 02:13, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
Oh, and while you're at it, unblock User:Arthana. He is innocent of sockpuppetry and should never have been blocked. More than a year later, it's not too late to free him. 129.49.7.125 (talk) 02:14, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Hmmm. I have to kinda think about the unblock and do some digging, but fair point on the Jeremy Hanson article. I'll do that in a min (and no, I've no idea as to who you are!) - Alison ❤ 08:22, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Good call on the prot - I've just done that. And as for the block, I'll unblock as a good faith measure. Their contribs were okay and the original checkuser (not done by me, BTW) didn't come back very strongly. Let's see how unblock goes & I'll take you on your (anonymous, tho' I can guess) word ;) - Alison ❤ 15:47, 27 January 2009 (UTC) (and what's with the BEANS thing?? Whoa!)
- Yes you guessed right. It wasn't that hard. Okay, I'm really leaving now. Thanks for answering my requests. :) 129.49.7.125 (talk) 22:59, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
mailed you hun
You have mail.:) And this is why I could never be a sockpuppeteer lol:) Charity (Talk) 02:55, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks, "Charity" :) I'll take a look in the morning here. You're by far not the only one saying that, and I think I need to kick this one upstairs, maybe ... - Alison ❤ 08:23, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
off topic comment
the picture of mr. wales peeping in from the side is quite disturbing. keep up the good work! Hope you are enjoying some time away from the madness. --Rocksanddirt (talk) 08:18, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks :) I keep getting dragged back in here, but I'm waaay down on my admin stuff these day. Hey - I even get to write articles now - what a novel experience! Glad you like the Jimmy image - you can blame Krimpet for that little masterpiece ^_^ - Alison ❤ 08:21, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
I think it'd be fair to see you're not really on a Wikibreak. You're more active than me. Jolly Ω Janner 17:55, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Hardly, H. I just keep getting dragged back here for various reasons, and I'm not doing a whole lot of admin stuff, to be honest (go check!!) - Alison ❤ 18:18, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
User talk:Jéské Couriano
Hey alison, thanks for protecting this page. I was originally respecting his wishes NOT to have his page protected against those that.... obviously... don't seem to care all that much for him. But after about a dozen reverts, I had just said screw it and was going to do it anyway when you beat me to the punch. thanks. :) Incidentally... I must really need sleep because the "Whack-a-Jimbo" coming in off the side of your screen just scared the crap out of me. Trusilver 08:23, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I know how he feels on that stuff, too, and he can unprot when he likes, but 1) this was causing unnecessary work and cleanup for others (YOU!!) and 2) it became an oversight issue so I made the call there. Glad you like the Whack-a-Jimbo - scary, huh? I think I need to keep him around ^_^ - Alison ❤ 08:26, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- I haven't been a part of that particular little business that's going on there? Is there some history behind that? After the eighth time or so, I was prepared to whip out with the rangeblock and then realized that every single hit to his talk page was from a drastically different IP. Is there an off-wiki coordination going on there? Trusilver 08:43, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- He's a frequent target of coordinated vandalism. Probably because he thinks he's "gettin' em" by letting them vandalize so he can indef or long-term block the IPs, and it's a joke for them that he doesn't realize its meaningless. People have tried to talk him out of his "honey-pot for blocking IPs" strategy before, but it hasn't worked. Avruch T 15:33, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

- What Avurch said. He gets co-ordinated attacks from Grawp, who gets his /b/tard army to do the dirty work for him. Basically, every IP is some random, unknown person, so what's the point? Prot and move on, as per usual. Still, what can ya do ... Jéské takes it all a bit seriously, hence his being a target in the first place :/ - Alison ❤ 15:40, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
←Honestly, Jeremy - you're best-off semi-ing the page so the children can all go to bed. Just look at the time!! ^_^ Seriously, semi just wastes /b/tard time then as the edit is blocked. Much more lulzy than having the bot kill ya and you weren't here to edit anyways - Alison ❤ 08:51, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
- I doubt these are children. Besides, I'm going to be up for another 40 min. or so anyhow, and am asking for eyes from a forum ally and thru IRC. -Jeremy (v^_^v Dittobori) 08:52, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Give it
I want my account "Mr Rogers Loves You" back. It was banned unfairly by a power hungry admin and as such I have declared a jihad on Wikipedia until things are restored. I have manipulated your system on at least five occasions to get new accounts and each time I am banned, I can get back in within a few days. You cannot stop me, I will suceed. Now, gimme my account back!--JerryIsThePosterChild (talk) 18:35, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I just blocked four more of your accounts. What exactly are you playing at here, and why on earth announce your intentions to keep socking to a checkuser, of all people? Not good :/ - Alison ❤ 18:41, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- He said the same thing to me and FT2, at least, so I guess he's not going to be "suceed"ing or succeeding anytime soon. --Deskana (talk) 18:42, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Hes just an attention starved trouble maker hungry for attention see this. I would just deny and theyll go away. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 19:08, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Well, they're all using a rather unpopular and hardblockable /21 range, so that will be the first to go, should the need arise. Furthermore, the WhiteCenterHoboClearer (talk · contribs) account is
Likely to be the same editor, as they share two disparate IP ranges (as well as other info) - Alison ❤ 19:51, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Jarlaxle
Alison, wasn't this information (at least his own real name and location) originally published by Jarlaxle himself? It certainly looks that way; I was able to find it easily enough from his own user page histories on other Wikimedia projects. As to the phone number, that was from the mailing list; I realize it is personal information, but how can abuse reports be effectively made without knowing who to make them against? If this vandal was inactive, I would agree that the information should probably be removed. But until he stops, having the information (1) is important in reporting his abusive activities to the ISP and possibly local authorities, and (2) gives us leverage over him - we could say "you want this taken down? stop vandalizing." I am not going to put it back in myself, but I think you should consider these factors. *** Crotalus *** 21:22, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- You put his mother's full legal name and phone number up there??? What were you thinking??? I'm not even going to begin to address the concept of holding his personal details to ransom like that. That's what Daniel Brandt does, and he gets vilified for it. This absolutely does not go back up. It's a gross violation of policy and privacy applies to all here. It's that simple. Whatever about JA himself, his mother deserves privacy and protection from random idiots who may decide to call that number. Yeesh!! - Alison ❤ 21:24, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
- Just to clarify, I was not the person who originally found that phone number. Someone else posted it on the mailing list about a month ago, and I put it in the LTA report, citing the mailing list post as a source. *** Crotalus *** 21:57, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
CU requested

Flagged revisions proposal
Hi. I am working on a minimal flagged revisions proposal focused on BLPs. FR may seem dead, but I think we can gain consensus on something small and focused.

I find the registration procedure there too bothersome. --Apoc2400 (talk) 15:42, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

I'd like to say that you were an important part of Wikipedia and, in my opinion, one of the best checkusers. I hope you decide to return at some point but until then good luck.

question
Hi,
Would you be interested in volunteering some time and expertise to help the Wikimedia Foundation in a collaboration with the National Institutes of Health? I unfortunately do not have a lot of details to give at this time, but in short, I'm looking for a group of Wikimedians (primarily US or UK based, but that's not a requirement) that have interest or expertise in various medical fields, to help participate in a Wikimedia Academy event with the NIH. Even if you don't think you'd be able to attend the event, but would be interested in helping out online in any capacity, I'd love to hear back from you. Please leave a message on my talk page at User talk:Swatjester if you are interested. Thank you. ⇒SWATJester Son of the Defender 14:58, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
Retired!?
Aww geez! I completely missed your retirement. I sent you a message with a request for assistance in which your specific specialized knowledge would be of great help. Any chance you could point me along to an equally capable individual who would take your word on my request given its complexity? Thanks, and hope you come back soon! Hiberniantears (talk) 22:37, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
I see you are stil editing a little - so a favour, can you rmemeber the name of an editore a year or so ago whose user page featured in a photograph of himself (alledgedly) seated upon a gas stove in a very unhygenic fashion, You helped the sort the matter. it was something like User: Herman Soxboro, I'm sure it was Germainic, I have looked in vain and can't find it at all, Giano (talk) 09:07, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hi Giano. Yeah, I'm just doing a bit of BLP redaction when I see it. The editor you're thinking of is Roman Czyborra (talk · contribs) who, as I remember, was particularly unsavory - Alison ❤ 09:18, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for completely ignoring my request. Hiberniantears (talk) 03:31, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- HI there. I'm trying very hard to not get involved on-wiki right now (regardless of what Mr. Shankbone implies). I've no admin/checkuser/oversight abilities any more. I mightn't have seen/got your email as my old wiki gmail account is largely dormant now. Can I suggest you contact the Functionaries mailing list, as there are many people there who can help you. I'm really sorry for missing your request - Alison ❤ 03:43, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'll give it a look, but we need the likes of you back. Trust me on this. Look at my edit history and you'll see an ebb and flow of activity. I was low level active for some time, ramped it up when I got focused on a few key topics, dialed it back for a while to keep perspective, and since then just go with the flow. That is to say, I feel a responsibility to keep building and helping here, but at the same time, I don't worry about taking a month or a few weeks off from time to time to decompress. I know you're trying to break what became a demoralizing/unhealthy habit for you, but just look at the admins like me... you can take back your prior rights and simply declare yourself a worker bee who wants to keep a lower profile for a time, and admins like me can get a hell of a lot more accomplished with people like you active, even at a minimal level.

gd-wikt: *cz template
Hi, sorry for interrupting your wikibreak, but as there's almost nothing happening at gd-wikt so far I doubt you go there too often, and I've no Irish. To the point: I noticed this edit - the two problems with it are that (1) the name of the language is Seacais rather than *Seiceach (yes, I had it wrong back then as well) and (2) its ISO code is cs rather than *cz. Do you think you could change the template accordingly? To be honest, I was unable to even find it, so much for my PC-literacy ;-)... Thanks, --Duncan MacCall (talk) 18:24, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hi there! I've fixed it now - it was in a template so was harder to find - Alison ❤ 19:35, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

- Thanks, but to be honest guys, I'm not back. The above two requests were as a result of being 'called over' from two minority language wikis to fix something here, and a request to clarify an old checkuser case I'd ran. I'm no longer admin nor checkuser/oversighter here now & any edits I do are just as a result of the usual browsing stuff :) - Alison ❤ 01:17, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
- Why> I miss and could use help, I have had to switch administrators! (asking other admins. for helped). If you ever read this I would like to say thx for the extra chance again...I have been doing really well and not been doing disruptive edits. Thank-You and wishing you could be back! =) itzzHouse1090duhh (talk) 01:26, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

- I'm still very much retired, but there's one job that needs dealing with here right now. Thanks, though ;) - Alison ❤ 23:02, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
Curious and curiouser
[2] and [3]. I thought there was something decidedly not new about this person, I'm very glad we don't have to continue to debate cutting a well sourced and adequately sized article into two articles for some inane reason. Wildhartlivie (talk) 04:19, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Thanks
For carrying the BLP torch the distance you did. Nobody can do that work forever. 99% of the community will never understand what you've seen and been through and why you care so deeply about the things listed on your user page.
With great appreciation and very kindest regards,

- Wow, I can't believe you're leaving us! There's so few checkusers that we can't really afford to lose any. Can't really say that I blame you though; there's so much BS here, (sometimes so little purpose,) and so little reward... The reason I stay is the reason I came in the first place; to try to offset as much of the nonsense that pops up here as possible, and of course because it's a way to kill time. At any rate, it's rather sad to see an established admin as you leave; it's almost like seeing a teacher or faculty member quit at school whose been there a while.

Thank you so much
Alison, I'm sad to hear that you have retired. You were the best at everything you did at wikipeida. It was very nice of you to unblock me and make me a better wikipedian. You will be missed here at wikipeida. Good luck to you!!! Plyjacks (talk) 17:15, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
