Thanks for the tweak to the filter a few weeks ago (I've been on a long break). I made another tweak since there is no regex used that should make execution faster. At least one would think so. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:27, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Filter 39

[edit]

[15]. Unsure why this has tripped it? Black Kite (talk) 20:08, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article originally contained the word "rape," and the added lines still contain the word. The filter used to exempt cases where the article already had a match, but zzuuzz removed the exemption with the reason that the articles are likely to contain existing problems, and since the filter is not set to disallow, it is more important to catch BLP violations (i.e. prevent false negatives). -- King of 21:38, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. The main problem here is that it is not a school article. There are some words in school articles which indicate that any edits surrounding them will always require some review. -- zzuuzz (talk) 08:32, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decision requires revision

[edit]

Good evening. There is the article about one person. None of the administrators does not want to understand it. It's obvious that the article was created on commercial basis. There is no useful information in the article except insults and black PR. References, such as 3, 4 and 6, do not contain any information about Sergei Vasiliev. Have you read the sources? They are not authoritative. Freelancer wrote an article and we should believe him (reference 9)? Since when, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia for a lie?

No one paid any attention to the arguments in favor of deletion. arguments

Please, revise the decision. Article should be deleted. You are an intelligent man. Why do you protect provocateurs who create these articles specifically for spoilage reputation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VolgaCamper (talkcontribs) 19:41, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I closed it as WP:NPASR, which means that you can feel free to renominate the article for deletion ASAP. -- King of 21:01, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
When? After 24 May? VolgaCamper (talk) 08:25, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Immediately. -- King of 11:22, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ruby Yadav

[edit]

Regarding User talk:Salvidrim!#Ruby Yadav, I'm very sorry. It just didn't occur to me to check with you first. I do make mistakes from time to time, and this is certainly one of those times. Again, I'm terribly sorry. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:12, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. -- King of 22:42, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think there was a minor error from you when you were adding Afd link to Talk:Tim Jonze.[72] But I have fixed it for you.[73] OccultZone (Talk) 05:19, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, the script always puts the AfD box at the top of the talk page. -- King of 17:03, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Script called? It was also about "Tim Jonze" and "Tim Jonze 2nd nomination", but your link was another "Tim Jonze", yes both Afd. OccultZone (Talk) 17:50, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there, a proposal regarding pre-adminship review has been raised at Village pump by Anna Frodesiak. Your comments here is very much appreciated. Many thanks. Jim Carter through MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:47, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unilateral unblock

[edit]

I'm a bit irritated you unblocked Momanogilgiti (talk · contribs) without consultation. I obviously don't know what the CU found or didn't find, but my block was based on behavioral criteria, which I still think were more than obvious. Momanogilgilti's edits had several quite evident and apparently independent intersections with those of Jackolanternstrikes (talk · contribs), who I had blocked just hours earlier, and other earlier socks (both were editing Total Siyapaa, both were harassing User:Darkness Shines, both were not only campaigning for an unblock of ZORDANLIGHTER but claiming themselves to be that user (Jackolanternstrikes by listing his own account on the SPI page, Momanogilgiti by shouting "UNBLOCK ME" on that page), and Momanogilgiti was also inserting himself into the discussion at Talk:2002 Gujarat riots, which had been another of ZORDANLIGHTER's points of interest. How much more obvious does it get? I don't care if checkuser can confirm they actually are that Zordan sockmaster; if they aren't, they are just an obvious troll.

Articles for deletion/Sergei Ivanovich Vasiliev (2nd nomination)

[edit]

Hello! The discussion continues too long. There is a consensus for deletion of the article. Another user, who had not previously participated in the discussion, spoke in favor of delete. And those users, who had offered to keep the article, still did not respond to my and others counter arguments more than a week! After extending the period of discussion and setting "Relist", no one spoke in favor of keep the article. VolgaCamper (talk) 11:29, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As the closer of the previous discussion, I would prefer to allow someone else to close this one. -- King of 11:31, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

SPI closure

[edit]

You closed Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Paleolibrairan after having warned the user about editing while logged out. If you have a look at the history of David I Orenstein and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David I Orenstein, you'll note that the user has not taken heed of your warning and continues to edit from IP addresses, in a likely attempt to avoid detection of his self-promotion. Can you consider re-opening the SPI so sterner action can be taken? WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 16:53, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have semi-protected both articles. Hopefully that should be enough. -- King of 02:26, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reference desk trolling

[edit]

Hi KoH,

These all came to my attention by hits on edit filter 527 -- in each, there is a group of 4-6 accounts created within minutes, each of which then proceeds to post one stupid refdesk question. There are a bunch more new ones this morning. When blocked, they all show on the block log as autoblocking the same IP. And I seem to remember that there was a "reference desk troll" vandal earlier. Unless you strongly object, I think these all need to be blocked. NawlinWiki (talk) 14:44, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Could you point me to a page describing the reference desk troll? (If one doesn't exist, perhaps list some recent socks?) -- King of 14:50, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(tps) Oh, we're being trolled alright. I blocked some more accounts and reblocked the ones at the SPI. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 15:01, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks for clarifying everything. -- King of 23:03, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
