I would like to request that you create a page on GoldKey Corporation (use https://goldkey.com for a reference) I am a HUGE dan of GoldKey, and my articles always come out, well, biased. I want to leteveryone know about it for the greater good of the WORLD. Thanks! Force4good (talk) 20:54, 9 January 2015 (UTC)Force4good

@Force4good: hmm. I am not really good at creating articles, however, I know what might help. If you are having trouble creating an article, you may submit your idea to the articles for creation page, the project page, or you could use the article wizard. Good luck! -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 20:59, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

Antarctica

Hellow! On my opinion we need Antartic flag on Antartica, as universal and common international symbol of this continent. The Graham Bartram design can be changed (Antarctic Treaty Organization variant, but thats more then nothing. Bartram is more common on the web and this fact can be explained). each region should have the association with something in people's minds. Thank you anyway,

--Andrew J.Kurbiko (talk) 19:36, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

As far as I am concerned, the flag of the Antarctic Treaty Organization holds more credit as being the flag of Antarctica, as it is being used by the official organization that controls Antarctic activities. Also, the fact of the Graham Bartram design being more popular is not cited, and opinions should not replace official facts (even if the opinion is widely accepted). As well, "The Graham Bartram design uses the flag of the United Nations as its model." -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 18:32, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

User's talk page

Hi, I just wanted to mention that a user is not obliged to keep warning on this talk page, the assumption is that if they deleted it, then they read it, so they should have learned from it. It is certainly true that an admin may overlook the warnings in the history, but *we* know they were there and can mention them. Thank you for placing the warnings, we are now in a position to request a block on that signon if they do not mend their ways. Best wishes, Sminthopsis84 (talk) 22:11, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

@Sminthopsis84: Good point, but I only put that because I have had trouble with it in the past. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 22:13, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

Yes, this is getting nasty. I think you might want to just stop editing for a while, so that the sockpuppets can't legitimately turn their crimes back on you, perhaps take a break for a day or two. It's very weird. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 22:53, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

I'll only be on for a little while more anyway, I just want to keep things until someone else can help get things sorted out. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 22:54, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

@Sminthopsis84: Well, It looks like I will be taking a forced 2 day break! I really don't mind it though, I quite needed it (read below). Good luck, and stay out of trouble (unlike me)! -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 02:18, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

December 2014

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring, as you did at B-baria City, Bangladesh. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  De728631 (talk) 23:31, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

I was expecting this, and I accept it without question. I needed the break, I will be reviewing my conduct towards users who vandalize, so as to not become a problem myself. (I should just leave it once he has been reported, and then clean it up). Well, best wishes! -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 01:54, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Though Orduin accepts this block. I would appeal for a review. Not because, what he did is the most ideal thing to do; but he fought well and is a victim of Geographic.location's persistent attack. It could have been me, who broke 3RR. In honor of Orduin's vigilance, he could be granted an unblock. – nafSadh did say 03:31, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Not to mention, attempts to ask Geographic.location to talk did not work. He never discussed. But Orduin acted in accordance to general consensus. – nafSadh did say 03:32, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Yes, Orduin fought well and with logic. Unfortunately, fighting doesn't work well here. It is a short block, though, and I think the admin who applied it used good judgement. It could be viewed as a sort of protection for the blockee, preventing them from responding to what was, I'm sure, intended to be provocation. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 04:09, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Agree. The appeal from me is more of a gesture. – nafSadh did say 04:33, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

I have been using this period of time to review my previous actions, and decide how I should act better if I come across this again. I am also reviewing the WP:Policies, and other pages describing actions that should be taken, so that any further actions will not appear as breaking the 3RR.

These actions will include:

• Opening a discussion on the talk page (I will use the user talk page if it is a wide-spread dispute, and the article for simple ones);

• Invite others for their opinion in the discussion;

• Leaving the users contributions stay until they are blocked;
• Not allow myself to be drawn into irresponsible actions (Sminthopsis84 is right in assuming that it was acting as a provocation);
• Follow the advice of others, and the procedures suggested on WP:Policies (and similar pages)

A short block is most reasonable, it gives the user the example of what they should not do. Best wishes -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 14:00, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

I'm sorry that you got dragged into this edit war/move war which turned out to involve a number of sockpuppets too. Sometimes even a good cause has to be delayed due to the established rules. But now that I've seen your statement above and your future plan for not trying to break the 3rr limit I have unblocked you. Please note also that I have blocked a number of involved account, so next time you see an edit like this feel free to revert it and note the block evasion in the edit summary. If this occurs you may also drop a note to any admin and point them at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Geographic.location. De728631 (talk) 16:18, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for that. I will take this into consideration. Also, I will be cleaning up the double redirects left over from this event. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 16:56, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Orduin for summarizing your realization. I can keep those in mind too.

Thakns to De728631 too for pointing out about evident block evasions. – nafSadh did say 17:34, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Mike Cahill (director) discussion

I think that it is completely ridiculous that you will not let me delete the Background section, even when it is at the request of Mike himself. I don't understand - please clarify.

I have started a discussion on your page (with the warnings), please review that information, and all other information on your page. If you want it to be more widely discussed, you may open this discussion on Talk:Mike Cahill (director), so that others will input their opinions too. Also, can you simply continue this on your own page so that it does not confuse me. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 22:52, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Patrolling a page with a potential copyright violation

Hi!
I saw that you had curated Saif Adam by tagging it as {{unreferenced}} and {{uncategorized}}. However, the page in question had already been marked by CorenSearchBot as a potential copyright violation ({{csb-pageincluded}}). If you come across a page marked as such, don't just tag it for other problems and leave it - check if it's a true copyright violation or a false positive (the bot can only point out potential violations). If it is a copyright violation and there's no content worth saving (like in this case, where it was a full page copy), the page should be tagged for speedy deletion under WP:G12. Kolbasz (talk) 23:57, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

@Kolbasz: Ok, thanks for the tip! I generally skim through the content, and tag it as necessary. However, I am quite new at doing so, and have probably made other minor mistakes. When I come across something like that, I should be checking the source more thoroughly. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 00:35, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

WP:G10

Hello. A user putting "WHAT THE F*** IS THIS?" into their own sandbox does not really fall under the attack page speedy deletion criteria. It is not an attack on anyone rather an expression of confusion and frustration by a new user.

I removed your warning from this users talk page and replaced it with a welcome and an offer to help them understand the wiki better.

I hope you are not upset at me removing the speedy delete template and your warning but I feel it is important to not bite the newbies. Swearing itself does not indicate bad faith and for all we know this user could be a productive editor once they get past the confusing wiki interface.

That being said the users page is on my watchlist and if it turns out this user is disruptive I won't hesitate to react.

Peace. Chillum 02:23, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, I wasn't really thinking straight with that tag, at the most, I should have courtesy blanked the page (similar to what I did to the above text), but even that could be considered extreme. Until the user makes any action, I agree that no action should be taken against him. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 02:37, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Request for help

Hi Orduin, not sure how to respond on this talk page? I did not see how to use the sandbox to start development so I just created the full blown Wiki page. Now, I copied the info from the page I created and put it into the sandbox. But, I am ready to start uploading images that I drew. Seems I need to wait 4 days, ?and/or? do 10 edits (did one today 12/24/2014) before I can upload my drawings? Your help would be appreciated as there is a lot of stuff to wade through. If I can e-mail you, please let me know how? Thanks! Engineeringfridge (talk) 18:03, 24 December 2014 (UTC) Engineeringfridge (talk) 18:43, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

@Engineeringfridge: You can use this to email me the images, which I can upload, and then give you the link to use.

Also, if you want, I can get the page deleted until you are finished with it in your sandbox.

If you have any more questions, or specific issues, please feel free to ask! -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 20:25, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

However, I noticed you are nearly autoconfirmed. You will be able to upload the images yourself soon if you continue to make some edits. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 20:33, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for your help, I will do some edits and then start uploading the images. What is your suggestion? Would you prefer that I copy the contents into the sandbox and we delete the page until I make more progress?

I do need some help with my images, some of the drawings which I am converting to JPG I would like to do an attribution. I can not seem to figure out how to do this on my end within the image properties. Can I do this when uploading the images?

Merry Christmas Engineeringfridge (talk) 18:20, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

@Engineeringfridge: Just curious, what attributes do you wish to implement? I may be able to help with that. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 19:57, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

RV Fridge

Hi Orduin, I was tagged for what I assume is sharing an opinion, and rightly so. I removed the section on residential refrigerator installation and then deleted the tag. Please confirm that I did the correct thing?

Also, if you take me under your wing I can get this page up faster. I spend a lot of time on the drawings I am about to post. They are my engineering drawings, I am a professional engineer. I am having a hard time putting a metafile on my drawings that will show in the file properties to the uploaded file (jpg or png) that they are copyright with attribution for free use. If you have any comments I would appreciate them.

Ops the new guy Engineeringfridge (talk) 00:17, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) There are several issues here. Firstly, Wikipedia does not accept original research; content should be based on reliable published sources. Neither of the sources you gave for the article even mention "RV fridges". The ASHRAE link doesn't seem to provide any relevant information whatsoever and might looks like linkspam. Secondly, we already have articles on closely related subjects such as Heat pump and refrigeration cycle or Vapor-compression refrigeration. I do not think having an additional article on basically the same topic will provide much of a benefit; it may be more helpful to improve the existing articles instead. Thirdly, even if we come to the conclusion that a new separate article is the best way forward, the page currently is very much a work in progress, not yet ready to be a live article. It's effectively unreferenced, it's self-referential, the tone is not encyclopedic, and what looks like large parts are simply missing. Thus I'd suggest to turn the page into a draft you can work on at your leisure and to remove it from its current position until it's ready to go live. If you want me to help with that, I'll gladly do so. Huon (talk) 02:05, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

I will move the page into the sandbox. But, I really wanted to contribute to a subject that has not been covered which is the single pressure absorption refrigeration process which is found in RVs. The two references given in the comments, which state that they cover this topic already, do not, they cover compression refrigeration that uses a mechanical pump. This is evident by the comparison of the block diagrams.

I would appreciated help with this entry to improve. Is there a way I can edit this article and have a review rapidly? It appears that there is a critical tone to the RV Fridge article and it is still a work in progress as has been stated. True, the references are not directed specifically to RV refrigeration, just sources of information for the process which govern it.

Engineeringfridge (talk) 22:33, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi Orduin,

I was ready to add content to the RV Fridge page and then read the review. I am unclear at this time if I should continue?

1) I state this because the refrigeration cycle that an RV fridge uses is unique. It does not belong with the compression cycle as suggested due to the fact that the thermodynamics are much different. I was encouraged by others to build this page due to my expertise in this field and taking into account that there is not a clear description on the RV Fridge on wiki.s

2) I have referenced Wiki for a lot of the terms that are common to folks that work in the sciences and that need no explanation. Should I be referencing outside sources for these scientific terms?

3) Would patents be considered valid sources because patents go through a rigorous review before being awarded?

4) ASHRAE is an absolute authority on refrigeration. Is the comment asking me to reference an ASHRAE reference that cites the word "RV Fridge" or would pointing to the text books that discuss these refrigeration cycles that may have the word "RV Fridge" in them be what is needed?

Thanks in advance for your help :)

Engineeringfridge (talk) 23:44, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

@Engineeringfridge: You do not have to cite external sources, unless:

• You need to indicate the relation (you have to include proof to why it is included);
• Your explanation covers more than the internal source;
• The internal source is inadequate (or there is no internal source);
• The external source provides a better definition/explanation.

For including patents, you should check here, or discuss it here if still in doubt.

As far as including citations from ASHRAE or textbook, simply include which ever one is reliable with the given information.

Good luck! -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 21:26, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

speedy deletion request

Hi Orduin, The APS articles are designed to provide some detailed context on the development of a technology category that is attaining a fair amount of interest in the energy efficiency sector.

There are currently a large number of utility companies requesting a wide range of information on this technology and these wiki pages were designed to provide the background to these key questions which have been asked on numerous occasions.

I have referenced all independent sources on this category so as to provide the beginning of a central repository for information on Tier 2 APS centred around: - its origins - market development - evaluation status - etc.

As this is a new category with not a lot of independent development from many sources it may seem promotional at this stage simply because there is one company at the forefront of its development. That does not make the article any less relevant and will provide greater interest and participation from other entities.

Happy to discuss this further. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Italiano Tifoso (talk • contribs) 20:24, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

@Italiano Tifoso: Those articles are copy-pastes of articles that currently promote the companies, especially with all of the external links. If you would like you could use your sandbox to create a draft. -- Orduin ^⋠T⋡ 20:29, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your help. I had a consulting job that has take priority, I want to get this page finished as I can. Unfortunately, the holiday break was the time I scheduled for this project.

Hi Orduin Thank you for your message. I wasn't experimenting ! I am quite new at this as you can see ! I have been trying to stick to the guidelines but perhaps not learning fast enough as I am working on pages. I would very much appreciate if you could help me with some advise. The page I was working on - Zia Haider Rahman - has changed a lot over the last month or so, some other contributors seem to have edited the page quite a lot. I feel it is now more in accordance with biographies of living persons as specified in wiki guidelines. Since the warning tags on the page have still not been removed, I was wondering if you can help me out a bit here by advising me what else can be done to improve the page and qualify for these tags to be removed? I would really appreciate some advice here. Thanks in advance.

I have granted rollback rights to your account. After a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, contact me and I will remove it.

Ronan the genius

I am sorry to hear that you are unsure about how about how much Ronan in the genius is really a genius. This is not a factual statement however it is humorous so it has been left there in for the sake of comedy. I see that on your own page you have some humorous jokes which I laughed to my hearts content. I understand that you are unsure. I ask you in the sake of humour, in the sake of Wikipedia, in the sake of Ronan the genius to BELIEVE in him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maryo flatery (talk • contribs) 21:39, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

@Maryo flatery: I am most certain of one thing, the information does not belong to the article. For one, there is, in response to your above comment, an improper use of humor in an article. Also, it is a point of view statement, especially promotional As well as a non-notable list entry, since the topic has no supporting article.

What makes the unencyclopedic information even more dubious is the fact that it has been implemented by many accounts with similar history.

All in all, I think it should be removed. -- Orduin ^Discuss 23:04, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Clarification

Orduin,

I speak to clarify a certain matter that has come to my immediate attention. Recently I received a notice from you informing me of an alteration on a certain page known as Ferdinand (The Tempest), allegedly perpetrated by myself. I merely speak to elucidate that the wrongful edit is not of my doing, nor of my concern, as of this date. Thank you for reading and considering.

RV Fridge Page

Hi Orduin,

I have not had time for this "RV Fridge" page due to many factors. I revisited it and got a good start on the page. I want a review of the page (in my sandbox) before I move forward. I do not want to spend time on this if it is not what Wiki wants. Please let me know if I should proceed and finish the page?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Engineeringfridge (talk) 19:40, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

@Engineeringfridge: All that the draft now needs is a proper lead, and I'd suggest that you also remove the overview section once you have a lead in place. I have made minor edits to most of the other section in the draft but these. Once the lead is proper, I will help work on references before moving the draft to the article namespace. It looks much better than most new articles I have seen. Good luck! -- Orduin ^Discuss 20:45, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind help and words. I will get onto the lead and then send you a message letting you know I have made the suggested changes. I will try and get all the fridge function up on the next go at it :)

i am not sure why you have sent me the warning, I have had talked about this with him after last revert .

I haven't revert JMhamo, i just removed clean sheets after following the same reasoning they are saying but goldenboy revert it and i didn't revert it.

I am just sick and bored of all of this, people keep talking about consensus and threaten with blocks and bans while people are just opinionated,people just revert revert revert and threaten you with blocks and bans . I just wasted enough time on this i guess not really gonna bother about all of this ! because it seems for me the way of this information entry is based on opinion of a group of people !! why should it be consistent with all goalies for the table?? if some goalies have their information available while other aren't why should it mean we should ignore goalies with available information ?it doesn't make sense for me at all and with my time here i really understand why number of editors has dropped in all wikipedia different articles in general because it is just waste of time sometimes and based on who have more free time i guess .

Hi Orduin, I left you a message this morning on my talk page as requested, though I'm unsure as to whether you will receive it there. Just to say I will gladly adhere to your request at some point this afternoon. If you could just let me know how we go about this, would you like me to give the full picture for clarification or just the specific reasons leading to the allegation, would be much appreciated. thanks. Richie bedfellows (talk) 09:41, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

@Richie bedfellows: Generally, sockpuppet accusations are filed at Sockpuppet investigations, however, since there is an open ANI discussion open about this, I think it is better to post your evidence there. However, even if you post it to ANI, you should still handle it as if you are filing an SPI (Sockpuppet investigation). It is my suggestion then, that no matter where you put your evidence, you first read the sock puppetry policy, and Help:Diff on how to properly support your claims. Also, if you need help identifying evidence, this essay should help.

If you post your evidence to ANI, and it is:

• sufficient, I will take the evidence and put it in the SPI.
• not sufficient, no actions but a harassment, or personal attack, warning (against you) are likely to be taken.

If you post the evidence to SPI, please leave a notice at the ANI discussion, and follow other actions necessary from SPI, and your claims will be handled as any other SPI. If you need any other help, please feel free to ask! -- Orduin ^Discuss 18:58, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Orduin, thank you for the response. I have just had a quick look through the SPI page as well as the DIFFS page as advised. I have no problems submitting the behavioural evidence but the conversations with Ghmyrtle were between edits and coming through 'Msg left in template', with intermittent msgs coming through the Chaheel Riens page at around the same time. The edits shown from the Chaheel Riens page are the only edits evident on the DIFFS page, while the conversations (but not the edits) are only evident on the Article's 'view history' page. Could you advise,please? Cheers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Richie bedfellows (talk • contribs) 21:39, 31 January 2015

Okay Orduin, will do and thanks. I will be busy from this afternoon for the next couple of days so I'll gather together what i can in-between then construct the whole thing as i see it in the week if that's okay. Cheers. Richie bedfellows (talk) 08:12, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

It's not really ok at all is it? If you're so het up about a sock puppetry charge, you should surely be able to make time for it? To paraphrase - "Don't wait for the weekend to end, my friend".

I tell you what - seeing as this is such a stupid accusation, I'll do all the work for you, which shouldn't take long as there's nothing to pull out of the ether in the first place...

Firstly, assess the similarity between editors:

Here are the last 5,000 edits made by GHMyrtle[3]

Here are the last 5,000 edits made by yours truly - Chaheel Riens[4]

Is there any similarity in pages edited, and edit summaries made in either case? In fact, with the sole esception of the contested page - Casual (subculture) - are there in fact any shared pages?

No, there aren't. "Ah ha!" you say, "That's evidence of sock-puppetry - obviously this criminal mastermind has an alias he uses for each area of interest - and never the twain shall meet!" Well, ok - tenuous - but possible. Let's look at other areas then. How about userpages and talkpages?

Chaheel's userpage:[5]

Chaheel's talkpage:[6]

GHMyrtle's userpage:[7]

GHMyrtle's talkpage:[8]

(While we're looking at talkpages, let's not forget to point out that the accuser has no concept of grammar - insisting that "they wasn't poor" is correct and acceptable use of English. However, I'm sure that bears no reflection on their competency in any way, shape, or form.)

Hm, also note that Chaheel has a habit of blanking his talkpage every new year,[9] rather than archiving, which is a bit unusual - nothing like GHMyrtle, who makes extensive use of archives.[10]

Not much similarity there, is there? Oh - the same argument applies?

Right! Now we're really got the rogue(s) on the ropes. Let's look at the actual article in question, and blow that ruffian out of the water!

So, here's the history page of Casual (subculture) right here.[11]

Now, let's look for the apaprent minute-by-minute changes? According to the accusation here there is "the strange 'coincidence' of two contributors seemingly making the exact same irrelevant, nonsensical argument about something that made perfect sense" - ah, suddenly the above comment that the editor in question knows little of grammar comes into play. Let's discount the rather more obvious possibility that two different editors recognised that a change to an article made no sense.

What else? Ah - " just 'coincidentally' responding under this [GHMyrtle] username within moments of me responding in the the second username's [Chaheel Riens'] talk page" (My emphasis to aid understanding of context.)

Well, there are five edits to my (Chaheel's) talkpage,[12][13][14][15][16] and all but the very first can be instantly discounted, as they took place after the timestamp of the accusatory edit - 16:43, 29 January 2015.

So that must be this[17] edit then - with a timestamp of 14:43, 29 January 2015? Except the only edit GHMyrtle made around then is this[18] one with a timestamp of 15:01, 29 January 2015 - and that's hardly "within moments". In fact, in this edit range here[19] you and GHMyrtle between you made 5 edits within 20 minutes - by your argument that makes you a potential sock puppet of the two of us as well.

Look, Richie, just accept the fact that you're wrong, and have made a grave error by accusing two editors 5 times of being sock puppets. You're wrong, you're wrong, you're wrong. I gave you the chance to redact your comments, and you not only refused, but chose to make the accusation again. I apologise to Orduin for hijacking his talkpage like this, but you've pissed me off with your baseless accusations, and not providing any kind of evidence to back them up.

You asked me to do my worst. I'm not there yet, but if you carry on, this will only get worse for you - at the very least humiliation, at the worst, a block. Admit your error. Chaheel Riens (talk) 19:20, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

[Redacted by -- Orduin ^Discuss]

Hi Orduin, you cant take the evidence from what Chaheel has kindly submitted above if you wish. I do genuinely appreciate his efforts, if I'm honest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Richie bedfellows (talk • contribs) 09:43, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

No personal attacks please - they can also get you blocked. And could you clarify your grammar and typing - when you say "you cant take the evidence", do you really mean "you can take the evidence"? The context is quite important. Chaheel Riens (talk) 13:48, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Oh - and with regard to "do your worst"-type threats, seeing as you're the one who invited me to do so, it seems somewhat duplicitous of you to then knock any response regarding them. Still, you did ask, after all. And you've yet to respond over at the ANI noticeboard - it would probably help your case if you did so. Chaheel Riens (talk) 13:52, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Well Orduin gave me the choice of either responding on the ANI noticeboard or this talk page. I would've gladly responded on the ANI noticeboard once the whole thing had been submitted by myself, but to be honest, once you decide to come a long and hijack Orduin's response with a lot of semi-relevant self posturing, I'm afraid i understandably, become pretty nonplussed when it comes to following any quasi official guidelines. Yes, I can confirm Orduin can take the evidence from your submission. I can also confirm I will gladly retract any allegation and will edit any post mentioning the allegation appropriately. I can even confirm I'll be doing it with a big smile on my face If and when Orduin deems it necessary after reviewing the evidence. Now, regarding YOUR reference to MY "do your worst" type threats. I think you will find 'do your worst' isn't a threat, it's a statement. The actual threat is documented as "If you carry on, this "will" only get worse for you"... Now i think you'll find this threat was actually was made by yourself. Hence the reason why apparently, I'm still waiting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Richie bedfellows (talk • contribs) 09:02, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

I think you'll find that ""If you carry on, this "will" only get worse for you"" is also just a statement, pretty much the same as yours, based around your baseless and incorrect accusations. Things generally get worse for those who are not only in the wrong, but fly in the face of admitting it, all the while telling the other party to stick their head up their bum. Chaheel Riens (talk) 09:10, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Well the statement reads "this "will" only get worse" and clearly I'm still waiting, aren't i? I'm sitting here waiting for you to 'make things worse' yet all you seem to have is the tangential last bastion of the big mouth when failing to make their point, more commonly known as the 'grammatical error'. Bearing in mind your laughable attempts at hijacking a seemingly legitimate investigation into a legitimate accusation in favour of some embarrassingly bizarre self-posturing, some equally risible threat to humiliate me and a perception that myself laughing at you doing it would then be deemed 'uncivil' ...Surely you can see the 'seriousness' of the allegation disappeared along with any credibility you seemingly like to think Wikipedia ever had. So again, what is it you could possible do to either humiliate or even make things worse??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.120.41.24 (talk) 08:29, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

I can prove you wrong. Chaheel Riens (talk) 10:07, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

@Richie bedfellows:

You must:

Make clear how multiple accounts are being abused, explaining how the users are a) the same and b) disruptive.

Avoid all other discussion that is not evidence of sockpuppetry or other multiple account abuse.

You must use diffs, page histories, log entries or other information to support your position; patrolling admins, clerks and CheckUsers are not expected to establish your argument for you.

Basically, until you open your argument, I cannot do anything to support your case, if I support your case. You must open your case using your thinking, not mine. Requesting that I open a SPI about incidents that I was not involved in is close to WP:CANVASSING.

Also, @Chaheel Riens and 2.120.41.24: please take this discussion off of my page, and to the ANI report where it belongs. -- Orduin ^Discuss 21:00, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

Well proving a legitimate accusation to be unfounded is hardly making things worse, is it? Especially bearing in mind the weird and wonderful, laughingly overwhelming urge you seem to have in performing to a perceived audience, obviously undermining any credibility towards the seriousness of any allegation or any subsequent investigation thereafter. Richie bedfellows (talk) 08:13, 5 February 2015 (UTC) Hi Orduin, As already stated, I have no qualms about presenting the evidence leading to my suspicions. In fact i could and would have done this three days ago and would have presented it on the ANI page had he not done me the favour of 'doing it for me' on this. I'll be back with you in a few days. Cheers for now. Richie bedfellows (talk) 08:13, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

You seem to be backtracking rather. You've had your week, now you need more time. And if the evidence you were going to present was the same as mine, then that's hardly going to work in your favour. Still, I'm interested to see what you come up with, provided it's something other than posture and the casting of aspersions that is. Chaheel Riens (talk) 08:36, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
Hi. I think that I am right in removing it. The official rules state: "This template should be used on IPs which appear to be or are likely to be shared by multiple users - typically IPs assigned to large institutions, or to a pool of dynamic IP addresses. Where there is no indication of this, the template should not be used. ".

The point is, it gives information on your IP address which we can then interpret and act on. One of these action is the shared IP template. You can do a lookup here, but please be aware that if you look up an address, and reveal personal information, it is concidered outing. Revealing personal information could get you blocked. -- Orduin Discuss 22:38, 13 March 2015 (UTC) No, that is not the point. The point is that if such information would suggest that the IP is of a location such as a University or Library where you might suspect that the IP is shared the the template is appropriate. If you have quote "no indication" of such then it is not. So please do not re-add the template. 78.68.210.173 (talk) 22:54, 13 March 2015 (UTC) The whois is what gives us the indication.

How did you fix the sidebar of the article? It seemed to be broken to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by B24t67u86z19 (talk • contribs) 01:12, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Doxing at Trajan Vuia page

I see that the 'personal information' posted at the trajan vuia talk page is, although redacted, still directly accessible and viewable through the page history. I had thought it was policy here to extirpate such references. Is it my responsibility to contact oversight about this, or is this something that takes days to do?Ion G Nemes (talk) 18:32, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Well, I have asked at your report [20] if WP:REVDEL applies here. It may in the case that we need to hide it before oversight gets to it (more). If oversight does not count I think RevDel should. -- Orduin ^Discuss 18:54, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

If you think oversight applies, you should probably email the oversight team. (Email from here if you have your email enabled, otherwise, try one of the methods at Wikipedia:Requests for oversight) -- Orduin ^Discuss 19:13, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Just wanted to know if action is being taken, or considered, or if I was supposed to be doing something myself. Looks like you're saying that a process is in motion at this time to resolve this without the need for any action on my part. Ion G Nemes (talk) 16:56, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

@Ion G Nemes: If you think oversight applies here, then you should make a request. Please read the oversight policy if you choose to make a request. -- Orduin ^Discuss 20:49, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

I am sorry for whatever my cousin has been doing, he has had free reign on my computer for 2 days, although he says that he has not edited "The Future Doctor Medical Journal". If there is anything you would like me to do to fix whatever he has done, feel free to ask.

RV Fridge -- New Account

Hello Orduin, I lost my password in a data crash. I made a new user account as follows:

Engineeredfridge

I copied the work I did in February into this account. Please respond to my Engineeredfridge talk page. Will I have to wait to upload images? I was told to link Engineeredfridge to the old account but do not know how:

RV Fridge

Sorry to be a bother, it is hard to pick up where I left off. The last correspondence you send me was to post an introduction, but I forgot the Wiki name used for the introduction and the format guidelines.

Also, I am attempting to start by inserting a page title for the RV Fridge page. I cannot seem to find the format or code format to place it on the edit page in my new user account. I am assuming that page title will give me the desired link, example:

https://en.wikipedia.org/RV_Fridge

User:Engineeredfridge

Hell again Orduin,

I attempted to get the RV_Fridge page as close to being done as possible. You mentioned that you would help with the introduction and references (where the are needed?)before I submit it. Can you can give me suggestions that will make the page easy for the editors one I hit the "Submit your draft for review" button.

We both have put a lot of effort into this page, and I thank you kindly! I have time in the next few weeks to get this project behind me, your help is much appreciated!

Engineeredfridge (talk) 13:51, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

@Engineeredfridge: I'm sorry I have not responded recently. I have been working on a project that had taken up most of my time. I will see what I can do. -- Orduin ^Discuss 16:34, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

May 2015

Greetings Orduin! Thank you for your edits on Jorge Brito. I am a little concerned that there is a deliberate abuse of accounts to win an edit war. I am trying to assume good faith, but that is increasingly difficult given that there are three editors making the same edits, trying to remove any detail about Brito's involvement in corruption (which is backed by reliable sources). Do you think these suspicions have merit? If so whats the best course of action? DaltonCastle (talk) 01:35, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

@DaltonCastle: It does seem suspicious, but I do not believe there is enough evidence to justify an WP:SPI as of now. I have added some input here on what I think of the edits themselves. -- Orduin ^Discuss 19:40, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your input! Hopefully we can collaborate further when the block is lifted. Thanks again! DaltonCastle (talk) 19:42, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Sorry 'bout the revert. I was about to revert to an earlier revision, but it seems that you beat me to it - I have a really sluggish connection in my campus. lavender|^{(formerly HMSSolent)}|lambast 16:56, 10 June 2015 (UTC)

Follow up - I also failed to realise that there was another, better revision there. Again, I apologise. lavender|^{(formerly HMSSolent)}|lambast 17:10, 10 June 2015 (UTC)

I don't know, but Summer must have had good reason to believe you of block evasion. However, I was commenting on your behaviour on Summer's talk page. But, why not ask clearly why Summer believes you are evading block. I can't seem to find why. -- Orduin ^Discuss 18:48, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

This is how It started off, I apologizing to Summer from what my kids has done last year. Don't block me https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SummerPhDv2.0. than he disagreed what I said and he told me I have been having problematic for a quite a while now. I said my son was a trouble maker and he refuse to listen to the source. he said Same internet connection, same grammar problems = same person. I was like what is he talking about ? He called me a troller. he took it on me. This is what he did wrong, he deleted my topic and he edit what I put. and he interrupt my conversation between me and Snowy66. that's why I think he rude. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Snowy66&diff=670383407&oldid=670369305.

After you admitted that it was you, not your "7 year old son" (you both have the same idiosyncratic grammatical problems) here, you provided a list of some of the IPs you have used here, including Special:Contributions/98.198.33.72 which is currently blocked.

Thank you, reviewed, but declined at this time. -- Orduin ^Discuss 21:07, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

I went ahead and accepted this draft and made some minor copyedits. I was a little surprise to see the reason for the last decline being violation of WP:NOT, as it seemed to me that the articles problems were significant but cosmetic. Is it typical for drafts to be declined simply because they need cleanup? VQuakr (talk) 19:53, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Perhaps it was on the border of acceptable, and maybe I have stricter conclusions. -- Orduin ^Discuss 18:51, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

RV Fridge

Hello Orduin, I submitted the RV Fridge page for review. Please let me know if I need to any further work on the page. I have a consulting a gig that will occupy me till the end of the year starting at the end of August.

Thanks for your help! Engineeredfridge (talk) 19:00, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

Hello Orduin,

This is engineeredfridge which was blocked and changed my name to sodiumchromate, yes I was inspired by another user - sulfur :)

Thanks for you help on RV Fridge page, I was not sure how to change the orphan status.

Here are the suggested pages that can link to the new RV Fridge page. If it is fast and easy for you to put these links into the respective pages and remove the orphan status I would appreciate it:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recreational_vehicle

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_refrigerator

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chromate

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_vessel

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASME_Boiler_and_Pressure_Vessel_Code_(BPVC)

Please let me know if this works for you?

PS, if I need to edit RV Fridge do I need to link the old username (engineeredfridge) with the new user name (sodiumchromate)?

Hello! You sent me a message and as I know that you said to reply on my own, I do not have one. I apologize for anything I have done, but I do not remember even being on the Webkinz page for a while.

@24.131.49.252: It appears that your IP is shared, so it is quite likely that you did not do the edits. You do not need to worry about the content that was removed, as it was restored at the same time the warning was placed. Also, I never left anything on your talkpage.... Anyway, you can see any edit you have made in your contributions. -- Orduin ^Discuss 17:19, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

@50.138.99.157: See this diff, which was an edit made by you, and which was vandalism. It could be that your IP is shared, in which case, you can simply ignore the warning, assuming that you edit constructively. -- Orduin ^Discuss 00:59, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Judy Collins Amazing Grace Album Page Edit

Hi Orduin. Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice did not write Godspell. They wrote Jesus Christ Superstar.

PLR/DS templates

Please do not delete Template:S-line/PLR left/DS and Template:S-line/PLR right/DS. I was adding the missing Penn Station line ("Downtown Subway") which used to run from Penn Station to Steel Plaza. This line was missing from the article. Fefwepgwj (talk) 00:27, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

@Fefwepgwj: Is it really necessary to create individual templates for each one? Anyway, the pages contain nothing but the words, and therefore perform no function whatsoever, and therefore are best off deleted, since they serve no purpose. They shouldn't exist in their current state. I suggest you use your sandbox if you wish to experiment in creating templates. The community will only keep those which serve a purpose. Thank you. -- Orduin ^Discuss 00:33, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
