Sock user adding unsourced info

Back in February IP user 139.182.208.223 received a two month block for continuously adding unsourced info to Carlos Correa. Not only was it unsourced, but they kept adding it directly before an existing citation that did not support the statement. Now, just over two months later, new user User:MinnesotaMethods has begun making the exact same change. After two warnings, another new account, User: KyleCrick, created just minutes ago, is attempting to back up the change. Seems like a WP:DUCK to me. Could you take a look when you get a moment? Thanks! NJZombie (talk) 18:11, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

Could be WP:MEAT; I don't have checkuser, so I can't say for sure without filing an WP:SPI. In any case, all of the accounts have been given final warnings. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:22, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

I noticed this after reviewing the history at Carlos Correa following my question to a new user. For some background, see Talk:Shannon Sharpe#Middle name. I see that Gigablick was indeffed—if I had noticed that earlier I would have indeffed my user rather than leave them a question. I will indef them in 24 hours or so but I thought I would post here to let you and NJZombie know that there are a couple of hoaxes being promoted. Johnuniq (talk) 07:50, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Looking at the Carlos Correa edits, it seems possible that it’s the same user. To be fair, the issue was never that the original editor was claiming that Correa resided in Minnesota. It was the fact that they kept adding information about it directly in front of a source that didn’t support it and wouldn’t take the time to learn how to do otherwise. Doing a quick Google search now shows that Correa has, in fact, made a recent home purchase in Minnesota since it looks like he is staying with the Twins. So I don’t look at those edits about him being from Minnesota as a “hoax” necessarily. However, if it is a sock user, that needs to be addressed of course. NJZombie (talk) 10:53, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

That being said, they're now using User:Wallace Mountain and User:Swatt Sonar, in addition to User:Quanto Quick to make the same edits. Obvious sock activity. NJZombie (talk) 01:30, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

I indeffed the three ducks (Swatt Sonar + Wallace Mountain + Quanto Quick) and semi-protected Carlos Correa for a month. Johnuniq (talk) 02:22, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Why did u revert my edit

Hi Jamie, why did U revert my edit on Cyberpunk 2077? I have several pieces of evidence stating why u shouldn't have reverted by edit.

1) The subtitles of the game clearly state the characters by their first names NOT their last names

2) in the accompanying article for Cyberpunk Edgerunners, most of the characters are referred to by their first name, not their last.

3) The game is clearly based off of fictional events, and no real people are involved in the game.

4) The surname is standard rule is completely bananas. Many wikipedia articles about video games clearly refer to the characters by their first name, like the ones for GTA V. HiGuys69420 (talk) 23:35, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

WP:MOS conventions are not dictated by game subtitles. You're welcome to take it to Talk:Cyberpunk 2077 and see if there is a consensus to use a different convention, but in the absence of that we default to standard conventions. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 00:01, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Vans

Hi, you blocked an IP range from editing Van a little while ago (likely a Zerolandteam385 sockpuppet, not certain). They have moved on to add the same type of content to List of vans instead, while they are waiting for the other block to expire. Should I file a report somewhere or will notifying you suffice?

Spellchecking

Hi, i have noticed naming of some articles are not correct, for example: Colonel Amirouche, his real name is Amirouche Aït Hamouda, Check Mokrani, Sheikh Amokrane, Boulifa, Si Amar U Saïd Boulifa [2], indeed correction is minor but relevant, nice to meet you. Masaialva (talk) 21:36, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Names from other languages/cultures frequently have multiple acceptable variants/spellings in English. It's disruptive for editors quibble over the spelling variant. If a variant is patently incorrect and you have reliable sources to support that, it should be brought up on that article's talk page. Piping the name to an alternate spelling on other articles is not appropriate in most cases. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 22:00, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

I'm agree with you, it's going to be very long, do we use berber latin alphabet for? In the other case, it's better to keep some alternative names which are appropriate. Masaialva (talk) 22:14, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

Whatever language is primarily associated with the subject, that script/language can be used for showing their name in other languages; in some cases, more than one may be used. Regardless, it's not helpful to quibble over English transliterations. From Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Spelling_and_romanization: Spell a name consistently in the title and the text of an article. (Relevant policy: Wikipedia:Article titles; see also Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English).) For a foreign name, phrase, or word, adopt the spelling most commonly used in English-language reliable sources, including but not limited to those already cited in the article.

Some of the matters that you have added to the site are subjudice. I see that you have protected the page and added what you think is right. It is against law in India to aid and abet media trials. The material should be deleted. 117.236.106.195 (talk) 06:53, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Talk page protection

Would you be able to place temporary protection on my talk page? There's a user that's been IP hopping in order to add unsourced box office analysis to the Clerks III article for the last day or so now. Myself and two other editors have indicated that it's an incorrect addition. After several false vandalism accusations made against me, user resorted to posting their arguments and accusations on my talk page today. After, refuting them and stating that I wasn't interested in having this discussion on my talk page anymore, the editor, using yet another IP address, reverted my deletion. Once that was deleted, they added even more. So now it's just harassment. Thanks for any assistance you can provide. NJZombie (talk) 19:49, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

I’m not affiliated with the other apparently banned user he keeps WP:HOUNDING. Either he’s confused or trying to stir the pot with his row against me. Blaming us for his feud with him is not his right.

For the record, I’m an employee of the Lyric theater in Colorado and some members of our cinema-lovers club do occasional editing from our public computers. I’m sure there is the occasional troll from here given these are public computers. However this zealous user taunted me into coming to his profile page to debate them only for him to change his mind without warning and revert my counter-argument out of spite. That’s his right. Then the other aforementioned allegedly-banned user that he was also taunting jumped in to apparently fan the flames.

I have no desire to debate this editor anymore on his profile page, nor become entangled in his drama. I told him to resume his debate with me on the article’s forum page if he must.

tl;dr version— I’m only responding because of his false accusations of vandalism and sockpupperty. Told him to file an SPI rather than drag his drama to all these other places. 2601:282:8100:32A0:95E1:D373:5241:8C19 (talk) 20:20, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Nationality dispute Gama

Dear Ohnoitsjamie it seems like editors who want to claim Great Gama as a Indian are back the neutral and stable version has been removed and they keep adding "Indian" wrestler when the consensus for over a year has been to use neutral terms since he took up Pakistani residence after 1947. Is there anyway of protecting the article? MahisoeoEk (talk) 07:43, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

Sources which do not back Indian nationality claims

This source also states British India and later Pakistani as nationality [4] Another source which states "Indian and then Pakistani after partition" [5] So sources are disputing this argument he was just a Indian wrestler most define him as a wrestler during the British Raj era which seems neutral I am not sure why Indian editors seem to insist he was always Indian.

Explaining my edits

Hi Ohnoitsjamie sorry to pester you again it seems my edit summary's may not have been as clear every edit I made here [6],[7],[8],[9] and here [10] along with the others I may have missed is in response to a sock [11] (this account edits kashmir based articles and culture) and [12] (this sock edits all the massacre pages) they are both accounts of the banned same user hence I was attempting to restore the original neutral versions based on Ban revert policy plus the edits are so clearly biased I am surprised nobody has reversed them yet. I sometimes missed adding that to the edit summary which seems to be causing the confusion as other edits where I mentioned it were not removed. However please note this edit [13] has restored some seriously pov material referring it to as "occupied" is not a neutral term. I understand admins are busy and do not have the time to deal with every troll or sock on Wikipedia. Please let me know you have acknowledged this and sorry for the confusion. MahisoeoEk (talk) 16:36, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia doesn't need editors who are only here to argue about disputed territories and historic ethnic labels. I understand that some of your edits were reverting block sockpuppets; that's fine, but I'd suggest that you find another purpose here beyond the aforementioned quibbling. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 16:52, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

I actually have edited other topics but by the nature of the topics I have an interest in i.e food culture I tend to see these types of editors and come across their edits so I feel compelled to restore and remove the vandalism South Asian topics unfortunately are highly toxic and I try to remain neutral but it can be tough. Thanks for responding. MahisoeoEk (talk) 17:03, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

This edit may be food-related but it's still (1) unsourced and (2) pointless. If you continue to make such edits I will be compelled to block you. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 17:13, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

It seems like you did not pay attention again Jamie I did source it to the Punjab origin. The term South Asia encompasses the entire Punjab reason so South Asia or Indian subcontinent rather than a specific country is more than reasonable. Please look a bit more carefully before jumping to conclusions. MahisoeoEk (talk) 17:32, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

Disruptive IP ranges

Could this range be fully blocked rather than the current partial block on articles? This range (and others that are clearly related) have been disruptive on a number of articles, including SpongeBob SquarePants related articles, such as SpongeBob SquarePants (season 13). On that article, there has already been:

• 2600:1005:B000:0:0:0:0:0/38
• 2600:1005:B080:0:0:0:0:0/44
• 2600:1005:B000:0:0:0:0:0/41

Thanks to them, that specific article has been protected until (at least) October, but now they are doing disruptive edits on the talk page ([15]). Also worth noting that of the 3 ranges listed above, the /44 range is currently fully blocked for 6 months, while the /38 and /41 ranges are both only partially blocked. They are continuing their disruptive edits/vandalism across many other articles, including disruptive edit summaries such as this. At this point, it seems like a full block for those two ranges (as well as any future ones) would be most beneficial. I hope you can help- thanks in advance.

P.S. I am requesting this to you, as I had previously submitted a report regarding this issue at WP:AIV, but it was rejected. Magitroopa (talk) 21:25, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

just fyi

I don't disagree with your removal of the quotebox from The Mooknayak - I had added it because I was trying to get into a flow of developing the article while the request for page protection is pending, and had started by adding the quote with the hope that it might help tamp down some of the disruption that has been happening. But it did not seem to help, and disruption has also continued on The Mooknayak founder Meena Kotwal's article in the meantime, so I'm glad you are also working on the article, and I figure I will get back to the article at another time. Cheers, Beccaynr (talk) 02:45, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

Sorry, didn't mean to step on your toes while you were working on the article, but there does seem to be a consensus (perhaps undocumented?) that box quotes should be used very sparingly in Wikipedia. I protected Kotwal's article and will keep an eye on the other.OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 04:31, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

I'm more than happy to work with you on the article - after the disruptive editing settles down, then working on the article will be much easier. And thank you for protecting Kotwal's article. I also totally agree about box quotes - I had been trying to extend maximum good faith to the editors who kept trying to change the article so it was about Mooknayak, so I was thinking the box quote could help clearly explain what the article was about while I tried to expand the article. After you (correctly) removed the box quote, I figured I would let you know about what led to the unusual addition. Cheers, Beccaynr (talk) 05:38, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

A needless negative review from a nothing failure of a person (music critic.) i literally cannot imagine a greater tragedy to the divinity placed by the GODS into mankind than using that divine spark of life to post album reviews for some company. maybe its even worse to do that and intentionally write smear articles against musicians you don't like and worst of all 3, to continuously add it to Wikipedia in breach of the anti-bias rules I would reccommend moving this up to some higher power of wikipedia editor circles, as its very clear to anyone that the reviewer has a personal grudge/vendetta/bias AGAINST the person, and not the music, and therefore has written negative reviews about his music repeatedly (commenting negatively on the artists non-musical character in the articles) which tells me he just doesnt like Varg Vikernes. thx ;-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.100.233.220 (talk) 08:46, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

It's a review from a legit and notable music site; as I've noted before, the reviewer has previously left more charitable reviews of other albums from the artist. This isn't the first album in history to receive a poor review. If you remove it again, you will be blocked from editing. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 15:21, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Primary Sources Tag

Hi. On the Barton Paul Levenson page it is tagged with excessive use of primary sources. Do you mean the citations based on the published interviews with the author? If so, how would you recommend that the page be remediated? Botendaddy 17:29, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

For most biographical information and especially for establishing notability, we require third-party reliable sources, especially for establishing notability of a subject; that is, newspaper, magazine, or journal articles written about the subject or the subject's work. Articles written by the subject or catalog links to the subject's work are primary links; the article has very few of the former and lots of the latter. The "Style" section in particular is problematic; most of the links are "cited herein" (presumably primary links to the actual work?) and links to a blog, which [21] does not constitute a reliable source.OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 17:34, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Range block to include User:109.104.153.86

Hi there, I noticed that you blocked the IP range User:109.104.153.64/28. There is another one around that range that should be included but I don't know how to change a rangeblock: User:109.104.153.86.

Your draft article, Draft:Xurome

Hello, Ohnoitsjamie. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Xurome".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 17:55, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

Gary Maas protection

Thanks for weighing in on the protection requested for this article. The phrase and citation for the intent to relocate was added on suggestion of another editor (admin?) to resolve the dispute. The original text was simply "Maas currently resides in St Kilda, roughly 40km from his electorate." which is highly relevant to a political figure and I believe should be re-added to the article. What evidence/citation would Wikipedia accept for a location of residence that balances the need for accuracy with the need to protect someone's privacy? 121.200.6.242 (talk) 23:21, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

You're not going to add that, per WP:SYNTH. The source you described said nothing about Maas's current residence, only a statement he made years ago. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 23:25, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

That is not what I said. Please re-read; I am asking what evidence would be acceptable to reinstate the location information without the reference to the intent to relocate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.200.6.242 (talk) 11:27, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

You'd need to find a recent third-party WP:RS that says Maas was criticized for living 40 km from his constituency. A "people search" or government records website is not a third-party reliable source. Further WP:SYNTH violations or attempts to disrupt that article will result in an expansion of the blocks.

Waning Healthline discussion at RSN

This discussion seems to have run its course, with new comments by Colin more WP:NOTFORUM than about whether to blacklist/deprecate or keep. It is my first lead on a RSN discussion, so I am not sure how it ends, and have assumed that you or another admin would conclude it if there was consensus, as you stated.

I believe the tally is: keep (1, Colin); deprecate (2, Rhododendrites, Shibbolethink); blacklist (11-13, Zefr, NW1223, JoelleJay, Psychologist Guy, SandyGeorgia, buidhe, bloodofox, ScienceFlyer, OhNoitsJamie (conditionally if there is consensus: "the existing 500+ links are cleaned up prior to blacklisting"), Hipal, MrOllie, also MrOllie, AndyTheGrump, Alexbrn, now called Bon Courage); unclear (1, Whatamidoing).

Users Hipal, MrOllie, AndyTheGrump, and Bon Courage have not participated in this RSN discussion, but are regulars on the board. Would it be appropriate for you to invite them for confirmation?

Regarding your comment about the 500 or so entries where Healthline already is used, I assumed a bot would tag and/or remove those. Comments, please? Zefr (talk) 03:46, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

I am not aware of a bot that can cleanly excise links (especially if they are refs), but maybe such a thing exists? In most cases, those have to be manually removed, and if they were the only reference supporting a sentence, need to be replaced with a "cite needed" tag. It ends up being a lot of work. I definitely support deprecating the link (e.g., making a notation on WP:RSP), but if add the link to the blacklist right now, suddenly 500+ articles can't be edited until that link is removed. I personally don't believe in adding a site to the blacklist and then leaving it to others to do the cleanup work. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 04:50, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

If a bot doesn't exist for such a function, one should be written for the admin toolkit. I assumed an admin could request a bot from tech to replace Healthline refs with [cn]. I don't write bots, but that seems a straightforward solution. Village pump? Zefr (talk)

Anyone could request a bot, not just an admin. Good luck; I don't think writing such a bot is as easy as you may think, but I'd be happy to be proved wrong. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:11, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Page restoration

Hi, Ohno. I am puzzled by your action at Draft:Ritika Verma. Unless I have misunderstood something, you have done a cut and paste move rather than restoring the deleted page and moving it. Is that right? If so, why? JBW (talk) 21:12, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

I originally just deleted it (after I warned the user to stop creating A7 articles), but then saw that it'd been moved from draft, so recreated the last draft, which probably wasn't necessary. I'm fine if the draft is deleted; sending any of those through AFC is a waste of time anyway. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 21:25, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

It probably won't make a lot of difference whether the draft is kept or not, as it isn't likely to become an article anyway. However, as long as is kept, the editing history needs to be kept too, so I have restored it and history merged it. JBW (talk) 11:31, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Nimona Movie Edit

Hi, I'm confused. You deleted the summary of Nimona, citing that it was unsourced.

about hawpa

-the 3 writers of hawpa's page Perz00 (talk) 12:58, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

Those aren't very strong sources. For one, the section on "Hawpa" is identical in both pieces, suggesting that one copied the other. Secondly, per Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#News_organizations, the author of the pieces isn't identified, making it difficult to ascertain if these are articles written by the staff of the papers or whether they are editorials or an article submitted externally, neither of which would pass WP:RS. Per WP:PROD, you may dispute the tag yourself, but then I'll send it to WP:AFD unless you can come up with stronger sourcing. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:08, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

The lead already says this and i wrote it..HES offers over 900 courses spanning various liberal arts and professional disciplines, offered in on-campus, online, and hybrid formats. These courses are generally available to both its matriculated students and to the general public.

No one is hiding anything!

Also respectfully,

I DIDNT start an edit war, I collaborate with people -- even you if you recall. the lede was fine. People had different edits but it was fine. You made some I made some others made some..everyone is happy. Lyonsden1995 is a troll. This guy who has a hard on for Extension..goes through all the alumni pages at Havard Extension and scrubs their university affiliation. This guy is a troll. Look at his edits!

So please revert it back to before he edited it..also what he said isn't even true. Extension is Harvard University's part-time, ***open-enrollment program***, offering undergraduate ALB and graduate ALM degrees primarily for nontraditional students. Academic certificates and a post-baccalaureate pre-medical certificate are also offered.

They don't offer any open enrollment degree programs. So please just revise his edit. There's a section of the leade that I mentioned above and it mentions the mission to punooc and open enrollment but the section for degrees is not it because it confuses people ..you need to be matriculated to get a degree and that is not open enrollment.

If you have any further questions please talk with me but please don't be your usual fiesty self my anxiety isn't handling this tn.

Rajput_Dynasties_of_Medieval_India_and_Pakistan

Hi, the article was in draft-space as it was not completed and was missing references. Someone moved it to main-space and since then I am editing it there. I kindly request you to move the page to drafts so that I can complete the article ans submit it later. The purview of the page is far more than List of Rajput dynasties and states, it is far more elaborative and covers much broader area. Even the title 'Rajput Dynasties of India and Pakistan' was given in hurry.

My only concern is if you feel necessary, please move my article to draftspace rather that put a redirect. Thanks. Kshatriya Yoddha (talk) 19:42, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Partial block of 2607:FB91:174F:9AEB:1544:BB1:BA38:FB0E

You instituted a partial block of Special:Contributions/2607:FB91:174F:9AEB:1544:BB1:BA38:FB0E. Can you please make it a full block? This editor has a long history of making abrasive and abusive comments directed at other editors via various talk pages and the latest contributions on August 6 show that behavior has returned.—JlACEer (talk) 05:21, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

• /40 is a huge range; a full block would likely affect many good-faith IP users. We do sometimes block ranges that large (or larger), but only when the majority of edits from that range are disruptive. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 11:24, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
• Can you at least block the current address? I'm tired of getting insulted on my own talk page.—JlACEer (talk) 15:59, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Never mind. It appears another editor has already done so.—JlACEer (talk) 18:35, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Just a quick note that this appears to have bled over to 2607:FB91:100E:213D:74FB:7159:B045:E135 in these edits. This additional range is also registered to T-Mobile in Detroit. It's without a doubt the same editor.

A sock account Kamal Afghan01 created an article "Battle of Nara" which was reverted back to draft after the user was blocked. A new account, Surajsingh09, confident its same person, moved the draft article to regular article name. See here [24]. There are also other new accounts which overlap with Kamal Afghan01. They are RevolutionaryPatriot. The Contributions overlap with all previous sockaccounts of KamalAfghan01. See here. Clearly a duck.[25] and [26]. There are two more RTC710 and Khekom.

Difficulty moving on from a stale issue

In regards to this: Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)/Archive_153#Content_disputes_and_block_evasion

I am having a difficult time moving on from this. I still very much believe Sergecross73 was abusing their administrative power in the situation concerning List of music considered the worst and The Abominable Wiki Troll's addition of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band to it, with their insistence that the entry stayed on, on the grounds that it was giving TAWT the kind of attention and recognition they craved, and that they should not have gone unpunished for it. However, the issue is very much done and over with, and I feel that taking it to ArbCom wouldn't be in anyone's best interest. Any advice for how my justice-craving heart can move on from this? The Grand Delusion^{(Send a message)} 23:37, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

What the hell? That dispute was years ago, I lost that argument and 100% dropped it years ago, and I didn't use administrative powers in that those disputes. Why in the world are you still obsessing over this today? None of this makes any sense. Sergecross73 msg me 23:52, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

Because I feel like in that scenario, you were aiding a known long-term vandal, whether intentionally or otherwise, blatantly disregarding evidence that the entry was not originally added in good faith, and giving said long-term vandal the attention and recognition they craved. If you don't think to yourself that something's not right even after being presented with a mountain of evidence, then I think you're not doing your job as an admin. The Grand Delusion^{(Send a message)} 00:02, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, that fundamentally does not equate to the definition of Admin abuse. I merely restored the edits of a block evading editor on the grounds of WP:V, which is completely DENY-compliant. Now I ask you again, why are you obsessing, yet again, about a content dispute resolved 4 years ago? Especially after I warned you 2 years ago to stop harassing me about this? Twice even. I've never met someone so obsessed over harassing someone over a dead content dispute they won. This is completely baffling to me. Sergecross73 msg me 00:26, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

I'm unfamiliar with this episode. I should note that as primary schooler SPLHCB was my favorite record, and during that time I also greatly enjoyed the movie, and as such have personal biases. That said, I don't object to the inclusion of the cheesy SPLHCB cover album on the current Worst as the sources for it's inclusion are good enough. ANYWAY, I respect both of you as editors, and I'd rather not get involved. I can certainly understand the feeling of "unresolved injustices," but as I've aged I've become (somewhat) better at letting go of things and moving on. It's not always easy, but it's a great feeling when you can do it. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 13:45, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

That's fine, there's very literally nothing to be done here. I'm just trying to figure out why it keeps on coming up every couple years even though it's not a recurring debate. To my recollection, no one has attempted to add, or even argue, that the Beatles album to the list since 2019. It's not some perennial debate that keeps coming up, GrandDelusion just randomly brings it up in completely unrelated discussions. Sergecross73 msg me 13:53, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

Help with an editor on Live (band) article

Could you look over recent edits made between myself and User:Revirvlkodlaku at Live (band). All edits made by myself and others, whether helpful or not, are being reverted to their last edit and it’s approaching WP:OWN. The biggest bone of contention right now involves my deletion of three stacked images, of different sizes, directly under a heading. The images were placed there only three months ago and are an eyesore as they appear, especially on mobile devices. I’ve tried to explain and direct them to WP:STACKING in order to show why this is an issue, to no avail as they apparently see no issue with the images as they are placed. Thanks for any assistance or guidance you can provide. NJZombie (talk) 13:57, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

NJZombie is being overdramatic and disingenuous. As soon as they took the time to explain why stacked images are discouraged—something they merely mentioned previously as if it was fact—I did not revert back. User is just upset that I called them out on edit warring and immature behaviour. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 14:11, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Nice to see an attempt at conflict resolution devolve into name calling. Disingenuous would be stating that I never explained WP:STACKING previous to the final time which the edit history clearly shows I did. NJZombie (talk) 14:25, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to Cornell study on Wikipedia discussions

Hello Ohnoitsjamie,

I’m reaching out as part of a Cornell University academic study investigating the potential for user-facing tools to help improve discussion quality within Wikipedia discussion spaces (such as talk pages, noticeboards, etc.). We wanted to invite you to join the study because we noticed that you have experience dealing with NPA violations in your work as an administrator, as such, we feel like you might have a unique viewpoint that could be very valuable for this line of research.

The study centers around a prototype tool, ConvoWizard, which is designed to warn Wikipedia editors when a discussion they are replying to is getting tense and at risk of derailing into personal attacks or incivility. More information about ConvoWizard and the study can be found at our research project page on meta-wiki.

If this sounds like it might be interesting to you, you can use this link to sign up and install ConvoWizard. Of course, if you are not interested, feel free to ignore this message.

If you have any questions or thoughts about the study, our team is happy to discuss! You may direct such comments to me or to my collaborator, Cristian_at_CornellNLP. Thank you for your consideration.

--- Jonathan at CornellNLP (talk) 15:36, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi Ohnoitsjamie! User:Meless13 posted in this reddit thread seeking information on why they were blocked; I see from their talk page that block evasion is mentioned, but it's unclear what they did.

I used to use "template protection" for WP:SALTing in situations where full protection seemed excessive based on advice I'd received years ago; I no longer do that as it tends to confuse people.

RE: Page Protection.

Hey Jamie, I'm James. We have great names.

Thanks for your swift responses. I actually did both, applying for increased page protection and reported them for edit warring as they surpassed 3RR/qualify as someone with "clear intent to persist". Last time I had an issue, I tried both, and 2-month semi-page protection was the solution that was chosen, perhaps because that was an uncommunicative IP address?

So I opted for both again, but I understand re: vandalizing being inappropriate..because they didn't mar it with malicious content. Hopefully my report will yield results, especially since they were vitriolic and quite threatening even. Ugh, people.

Regardless though, at least I understand for the future going forward what the correct avenue should be. --Cinemaniac⁸⁶_{Dane_Cook_Hater_Extraordinaire} 15:27, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

About WP:LOGOUT editing

Hi Ohnoitsjamie,

I was editing behind a public IP 185.100.232.91 to circumvent local internet censorship while I didn't realized my login session had expired for half an hour. I'm quite aware of MOS:DAB and fixing the format of dab pages with a (disambiguation) qualifier and missing entry of base name on its top per MOS:DABPRIMARY. I notice you reverted my edits on Forks (disambiguation), JPN (disambiguation), Loken (disambiguation), Coexist (disambiguation) and Matty (disambiguation). Thus, I would like to hear your advice about this.

Thanks, NmWTfs85lXusaybq (talk) 14:52, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

Not every disambig needs a primary topic, and I fail to see how any of those meet primary topic criteria. Fork and Coexistence do, but those are already separate disambig pages; other grammatical forms do need need to have the same primary topic. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:55, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

I'm not arguing that these dab pages must have a primary topic while the base name is automatically a primary topic if they have a "(disambiguation)" qualifier. However, if it really has no primary topic, it should be moved to the base name per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. NmWTfs85lXusaybq (talk) 15:01, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

I disagree; all of those disambig pages are fine the way they are. Disambig policies and guidelines are based on improving navigation for likely use cases; none of your changes represent obvious improvements. There are thousands of other improvements that can be made to Wikipedia; adding primary topics to those pages is not useful.OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 15:05, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

I fail to see your actual argument for reverting. Have you really read these guidelines? Did you enjoy reverting these edits simply because they were made by ip? You can't use none of your changes represent obvious improvements as an excuse to issue an edit warring here. Please read WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and MOS:DABPRIMARY before make more claims about this. If you are feeling embarrassed about this, I can sympathize. NmWTfs85lXusaybq (talk) 15:15, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

Nothing to be embarassed about here. How did you determine that Matt Healy is the primary topic Matty? I'm not seeing any consensus for that here. I'm not interested in discussing further, as quibbling over redirects isn't worth this much of my time.OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 15:28, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

Scandal of American Mathematics Competitions

Why are you and some other editors trying to hide the scandals of 2023 AMC 10/12A? Even MAA acknowledged the facts. Please see the important announcement of MAA's page https://maa.org/math-competitions. In this situation, do your guys still want to hide the scandal? Could you explain why? As I said, if my edit is not accurate, you can edit it but not to hide it. You can never hide a scandal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:160:EB08:0:0:0:0:B (talk) 16:05, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

the vandal who changes name/ages of people killed in accidents/disasters...

is back...please take a look at [37]. I can't revert everything...thought you might want to take a look at it. Thanks, Shearonink (talk) 04:00, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

I think this is probably a repeat/SPA./LTA..something about adding errors to articles by altering/mispelling the names of the deceased people killed in mass deaths of almost any kind - accidents, disasters, mass murders, spree killings - and changing the ages of especially dead children (even though the ages are correct & cited before these odd changes). This editing seems purposeful and I have seen the exact same editing pattern somewhere - I think in "Bath School disaster" but can't quite find where/when it occurred. If I could search edit summaries on an article for the phrases "corrections of victims list"/"Number error"/"Name error" and similar wording then I might be able to suss out what I am almost certain is a LTA/SPA/POV/error-adding editor. At the very least I am going to ask for permanent auto-confirmed protection on the Bath School article. I sometimes do get tired of feeling like Sisyphus... Shearonink (talk) 03:40, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Ah, the filters are private so I can't view them but thanks. Yeah, I know I have come across this SPA/LTA editing before...somewhere. They will even occasionally sprinkle some legit edits in amongst their odd alterations, one of their usual edits being altering ages by a year especially to children's ages in some disaster article. I keep an eye on some of the tragedy/disaster type articles, not because I am especially interested in these awful sad events but because I think our history shouldn't be mashed-up together with whatever is floating some vandal's boat... Thanks again. Shearonink (talk) 21:28, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

Oh, you can't even see the filter hits when it's private? I was thinking that "private" just hid the rules definitions.

Inactivity for tennis players

When a tennis player becomes inactive after more then a year we add this on the top of the profile, check Qiang Wang (tennis). We also maintain a list of the inactive players on the 2023 WTA Tour page under Inactivity, thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sashona (talk • contribs)

@Sashona: Who is "we"? I see you adding that to the lede sentence in articles, but haven't found examples of anyone else doing it. Is there a consensus for that somewhere? OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 16:21, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

@Ohnoitsjamie: What do you mean by disruptive edit, in this case, can you elaborate? Sashona (talk • contribs)

I'm asking you where is the consensus to add "inactive" to the lede sentence of tennis players? You're saying "We add this" as if there is one; so far, you seem to be the only editor insisting on that convention. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:29, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

you said Pointless addition in your title comment, so was not sure how you determined that, and how it was that related to disruptive. We say “former” player for a retired player in the lede, but if not officially retired, not current playing and having no ranking, or a suspension, it is an inactive player.

Former/current is fine, but you should have a consensus to add "inactive." Where is your reliable for the word "inactive" applying to these players? The WTA doesn't use that term anywhere on her profile. You deciding that a player is "inactive" because they haven't played for a certain period sounds like WP:SYNTH unless you can provide sources for such a status.OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:49, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

for example from the ATP website, https://www.atptour.com/en/players/-/d763/overview , also in Wikipedia we differentiate between Active vs Inactive players for example in the WTA records page. Also on the WTA tour ] page.

WTA Tour records didn't differntiate until you started editing the page and differntiating it yourself. My point is that you seem to be making unilateral decisions in this regard. We have a special policy around WP:SPORTTRANS that loosely applies here; updating current statuses/teams on Wikipedia pages requires a WP:RS, not just your interpretation. You've tagged Jenson Brooksby as inactive, but his ATP profile does not say "Inactive." OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 21:35, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

I did not make any edits to the WTA Tour record page. There was a column already for active players. Brooksby is currently suspended for the rest of the 2023 season and beyond, that makes him inactive.

I meant the 2023 WTA Tour; it was you who introduced a discrete section for inactivity. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 22:42, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

I moved the already existing Inactivity section under the Retirement section as the definition for inactive was included under Retirement.

Mistaken page protection?

PrestonPlayz was salted by you but I think you made a mistake there in how you protected it? Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 22:45, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Not a mistake; years ago, I was in the habit of using template protection as a slightly less restrictive measure then full, and I could've sworn there was a guideline around it but I haven't been able to find it, and as such I've stopped using that level. Is there an issue with that level at the moment where it needs to be increased/decreased? OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 22:47, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Nope, not at all. I was having a discussion with friends on discord about when our birthdays are and the famous and not so famous people we share them with. That guy came up and then we were all a bit confused about why that page would be restricted to template editors if the purpose was salting. So I figured I'd ask if it was intentional.

Draft:Rat Na

I don't think that was an appropriate G14 deletion. There's nothing prohibiting editors attempting a rewrite of an article to do so in Draftspace (though the AfC tag was indeed misguided). Also, as I commented on the talk page one of the users you blocked, they're unlikely to be socks, and this actually appears to be an undocumented school project. I raised this back in 2017, and meant to reach out to the instructor to explain how their assignment has been causing problems for Wikipedia, but never got around to actually doing so. I might have to revisit the issue soon.

In the Rat Na case, I think the best possible option would be to restore the draft and direct the user to keep working on it until it's of acceptable quality (or until they lose interest). --Paul_012 (talk) 16:33, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Disruptive editing?

I see a pattern of addition of unsourced material by a user. Look at my changes to removed such changes from: American University of the Caribbean and Brooklyn Hospital Center among various edited pages by same user. MedGME (talk) 00:38, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Same user continues to update articles based on news of questionable relevance many of which he adds to the "controversies" section of the articles. E.g. ...""short seller nicknamed 'The Assassin,' takes aim at for-profit college giant Adtalem"... Wikipedia is not a tabloid. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Adtalem_Global_Education&diff=prev&oldid=1207741415

Rather than concentrate on material worthy of Wikipedia, the user consistently emphasizes recent news, a severe case of "recentism". I have tried to revert such changes but hopefully you can suggest other ways to handle this issue. MedGME (talk) 23:24, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello my friend. Sadly I need to request a block for Jimthing (talk · contribs) who's blown far past WP:3RR WP:OR WP:RS. He has been warned extensively on the article Talk page for Apple community and on his own Talk page that everything he's doing is categorically unencyclopedic. This guy does not believe in any rules or respect whatsoever, is a fansite person, and is WP:NOTHERE. He has edit warred a dump of trivia about Shazam with no sources at all. It's all on my User Talk page warnings to him. Once he even littered Lewis and Clark Expedition with a section dedicated to one unsourced sentence about a travel brand with their name. Just on Apple community alone I'm pretty sure he's up to five instances of edit warring of the same content, surrounding before and after he was exhaustively instructed on the article Talk page and templated on his User Talk page which he simply reverted and repeated. Thank you. — Smuckola(talk) 20:14, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

@Smuckola: That's completely unfounded.

I think 77.101.157.93 has been wrongly blocked for edits on James Baldwin. Their single edit is legitimate, and indeed is still part of the article. The other blocked IPs did vandalize the article, of course. Ttwaring (talk) 04:09, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you! Unblocked. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 15:27, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

174.214.49.201

You put a one year block on 174.214.48.0/22 for several articles (Deputy, Indiana, Talk:Deputy, Indiana, Talk:Ku Klux Klan members in United States politics, Talk:Leaders of the Ku Klux Klan and Talk:Ku Klux Klan) but we've had 6 garbage edits from this one IP. I was about to do a block on it, but decided to bring it to you instead, as I don't want to walk on your carefully crafted ip range block. Dennis Brown 2¢ 10:01, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

I'm fine with expanding the block to full. I make an effort to limit collateral damage, but the vandalism expands beyond limited targets, it's unavoidable. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:35, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League

Hello. Can you take a look at the current edit dispute between me and Rambling Rumbler on the Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League page. The claim that the writing and story was "praised" is disputable, at best, and it's left completely uncited.

I want a non-involved third party involved in this. ShirtNShoesPls (talk) 03:51, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Sorry this has randomly shoved onto your talkpage to deal with. The user above has been engaged in a days long campaign at the article in question to effectively railroad their POV that basically seems to be their demand the article declare the game is being overall terribly received because it killed Batman.
The user was only a couple of days ago blocked for edit-warring with another user on the same article (which for disclosure I reported), where it was observed by multiple people this user has a WP:IDHT problem and tries to claim policy supports them when it doesn't.
I really am at my wit's end at this point as I really don't know what to do at this point while avoiding a 3RR situation given I've tried to engage with them on the talkpage of the article (even as they've accused me of deliberately ignoring sources even though said source was published days after the edits they were upset at me over), and when they've added sources but badly used them as part of the POV-pushing I've tried to fairly structure them into the article[40] but they've wholesale refused any interest in that sort of compromise[41].
Frankly I think the fact they've come here asking for you to resolve the dispute only to continue their own editing speaks volumes to how I don't think they want a third-party to amicably resolve it so much as hoping an admin will help shove through their POV. Rambling Rambler (talk) 04:31, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Please use WP:3. This is a topic area I'm not interested in weighing into at the moment. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:31, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Blocked IP 114.76.224.0/21

Hi Jamie, You blocked the above IP for 2 years back in December, but you seem to have inadvertently blocked me too (and I'm guessing a bunch of other people as well). I haven't edited anything here for years, and eventually had to remember my ID and password from roughly 20 years ago in order to edit something. If you could have another look at that block, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

I'm not going to unblock that range, as most of the edits from it are from an WP:LTA. Users affected by the block can log in with an account as you have done here. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 13:31, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi Jamie, Thank you for your reply. The only reason I was could log on (and hence comment on your talk page) was because I already had an ancient account, and fortunately eventually remembered the password. If I hadn't remembered that password (from ~20 years ago) I would have been blocked altogether, as you cannot either create an account or set a new password when blocked. Others in the same IP range with no existing account (or with a forgotten password or ID) would effectively be blocked from doing anything but read Wikipedia for 2 years. This doesn't seem appropriate, particularly given the person you intended to block is probably already off happily editing using a VPN. Again, could you please have a look at this for me. Many thanks :) Oracle7 16:05, 29 February 2024 (AEST)

One could make that argument for any rangeblock; sorry, but no. Other users affected by the block can use WP:ACC or UTRS if they are having issues with a forgotten password OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 13:57, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

Blocked IP 2A02:C7C:644B:6700:ED8C:C63:ACF1:C9F5

Hello Jamie. You partially blocked IP 2A02:C7C:644B:6700:ED8C:C63:ACF1:C9F5 on 30 January from editing several articles. The user has resumed their disruptive behaviour with yet another article, with this edit on the Gary Hailes article. Perhaps extending the block to all articles or, at a minimum, adding the Gary Hailes article to the partial block list? Many thanks! Geoff | ^{Who, me?} 14:22, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

That's a huge range, and I'd rather avoid blocking the whole thing, especially based on a single edit. I've warned the IP for now. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:25, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Adshead123

Hey Jamie. For pages targeted by Adshead, can you try pending protection rather than semi protection? Protection simply causes him to expand targets it seems. Unfortunately, I've not been able to formulate any sort of effective range block for this case. -- ferret (talk) 17:35, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Will do. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 17:57, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Oh, pending changes isn't available for talk pages; I don't think it should be an issue to just semi Talk:Andrew Simone will it? OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:05, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

I have several other targets watchlisted but he's slowly expanded :( Unfortunately honeypotting may be our best option if we don't want to protect 50-60 articles. -- ferret (talk) 18:52, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

I also have an edit filter that he's been tripping daily. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 19:27, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

LTA report copy request

Hi Jamie, would you be willing to email me the deleted contents of this LTA report. I am currently compiling a WMF global ban request against them and that report would be very useful. Thanks, v/r - Seawolf35 ^T--C 20:01, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

I simply restored the page for now. My original rationale for deletion turned out later to be a mistake. There still may be an argument to be made for WP:DENY, but I'll leave future deletion to someone else. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 20:11, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

That works too, thanks. v/r - Seawolf35 ^T--C 03:31, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

A goat for you!

Bravo! You're a fine writer.

Drmies (talk) 18:13, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Could you lend a hand?

Can you help me over at my talk page? I currently have two issues going on. First is a random IP editor (190.219.223.169) that is leaving me and other editors random strange messages on talk pages. I also have an editor that I've warned over WP:COI at multiple accounts, harassing me at my talk page. Would you be able to at least temporarily protect my page for while? Thanks! NJZombie (talk) 20:39, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your assistance with this. However, since your warning for harassment, they have moved from the account you warned over to their original account at User:Siddharthmenon2121 and have continued to harass another editor by soliciting their personal information.[42] NJZombie (talk) 12:48, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

About block another troll

Greetings, i'm more active in Spanish Wikipedia, but we've found several IP and accounts created by mmoreno25. The last example was in the article 2024 United Nations Biodiversity Conference, with the IP 190.219.223.169. Now, we have certain doubts about this. Please, could you check it? Sincerely yours, Pichu VI (talk) 14:40, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

• Please, block that f** account which is trolling my profile. It was blocked in Spanish. Pichu VI (talk) 20:46, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Apologies - not sure if this number was an intentional or accidental addition. Revert if I over-reacted. Sam Kuru (talk) 23:56, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you, that was a stray paste on my part, though nothing particularly sensitive. Cheers, OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 00:00, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

That's strange about my email; I have "set a local exception" checked for emails, which I thought meant that en.wiki users could still email me (90% of en.wiki emails I get and 99.9999% of other wiki project emails I get are some level of garbage). OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 00:04, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

WP:NOTBROKEN

Looks like 86.147.210.162 has been doing the same type of editing behaviour as 86.191.233.190, wouldn't be fully surprised if it is the same person. This time the changes mostly affects the Radio 5 Live link. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 22:57, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

PP request on WP:REFB redirect

Hey, I saw you declined the RPP on the redirect page WP:REFB at Special:Diff/1209635636 but then did increase it later at Special:Diff/1209663907. Was there something you saw on elsewhere on the project or on the backend that made you change your mind? I ask cause I'm not super regular at RPP and was just hoping to improve my future patrolling. Thanks, microbiologyMarcus ^{(petri dish·growths)} 19:11, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

I'd mistakenly initially only looked at the edit history of the target, not the redirect itself. After I realized that, I saw no compelling reason for anon edits on the redirect. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 19:27, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

Question

Hello you nominated SML (YouTube channel) for deletion, how long is the deletion discussion going to last. PrincessJoey2024 (talk) 00:43, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

One week. See Wikipedia:Guide_to_deletion#Deletion_process. Had you heeded my earlier warning, you could have saved yourself wasting all of that time. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 00:49, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
