Re:Sabotage in Page Rafael Nadal

edit

Hello!

What the user is doing isn't sabotage; that's an inappropriate word to use in this case.

I was actually reviewing the last edits to the article when I received your message and would have replied immediately, except that someone called me away from the computer.

You seem to be editing the article right now, so I'll wait till later this hour before modifying it.

BTW, it is unnecessary to say that Nadal failed to advance to the final in 2006 and 2007, because it already says that 2010 was his first final. SamEV (talk) 03:01, 30 November 2010 (UTC)Reply


Don't worry; the article's not being sabotaged. It's just normal for editors to disagree about the content and, well, everything.

I'll certainly keep an eye on the article. Cheers. SamEV (talk) 03:41, 30 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Re: Delete important information in Rafael Nadal

edit

Hi.

The 2010 section, at least, did need a trim because it was too verbose. But I'm not completely pleased with the changes, so I may put back a bit of content that was taken out, but not much, and probably not this evening (it may require some rewriting). The Nadal and Shakira image is not allowed because it has an owner. Images have to be free or they have to be really needed; it's a little bit complicated.

Your contributed article, Tennis Matches - 25/2/2011

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Tennis Matches - 25/2/2011. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - 2011 Abierto Mexicano Telcel. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at 2011 Abierto Mexicano Telcel - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. N419BH 01:53, 25 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Edit Warring

edit

Please stop adding images to the Rafael Nadal article. A discussion on the article's talk page is under way and it's clear that most people think there are far too many images on that article. You've made four reverts in a short time so you're in violation of the Three Revert Rule. If you revert again, I'll report you on the relevant noticeboard.

As I recall, a few days ago, you were blocked for edit warring. After that block expired, you returned to repeat the same behavior that resulted in a block of your account in the first place. Since you have obviously learned nothing from your last block, you are blocked indefinitely until you decide that you are ready to edit collaboratively.

Hi. I appreciate your first language is probably not English, but I have to say I don't really understand what "I don't want to sabotage, but they are of sabotage" is intended to mean. I suspect there is some language-based misunderstanding here, so I'd like to make a suggestion. Rather than just saying you understand, can you explain exactly what you did that resulted in this and the previous block, explain why it was not acceptable, and explain how you will approach similar situations in future? -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 16:30, 13 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I think the unblock process is very harsh here. It appears محمد البكور has been blocked due to edit warring on the Rafael Nadal page, but clearly the user was not familiar with the relevant Wikipedia policies. More importantly, I believe it's apparent his actions were done in good faith. Indefinitely blocking a user who contributes regularly in a positive manner with the aim of improving articles is fundamentally wrong, and that seems to be the situation here. I think the humiliation of forcing him to self-confess his previous error is unnecessary in this case for the following reasons:

1. He is definitely capable of editing collaboratively, evidenced by his engagement in discussions for Talk:2010–11_Real_Madrid_C.F._season and Talk:2011–12_Real_Madrid_C.F._season
2. A reason he has not clearly demonstrated his acknowledgment of error is because English is not his native language, and it is very difficult to understand the appeal process and construct an explicit statement without a strong understanding of the English language. We should not discriminate against good faith users who have difficulty with English.
3. His emotional appeals seem adequate to me. I am strongly convinced he understands his error.
4. He is a positive contributor to numerous tennis- and football-related articles without a history of vandalism or disruption except for an isolated incident.

I think we should all just use common sense here and unblock a user who has historically been very beneficial to Wikipedia. In case he engages in a similar edit war again (which in this case seems unlikely to occur), then re-block him and force him to go through the formal unblock process. There exists no value in blocking a user who enjoys improving Wikipedia. Bobby (talk) 02:20, 16 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

For what it's worth I was one of those from ProjectTennis that he was reverting on the Nadal article and I feel that English language barrier has a lot to do with it. I also feel that he should be unblocked and I look forward to working with him. He needs to control his temper a bit and not threaten but many wikipedians are guilty of that and are never blocked to begin with. So sure I would cross my fingers while giving the guy a 3rd chance but if it was up to me, I would unblock him too. Fyunck(click) (talk) 03:04, 16 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
If an outsider's opinion is welcome, I stumbled upon this when I got here from someone else's talk page (I forget which, but it doesn't matter). I've silently been watching since the initial unblock request was made, and subsequently denied. I agree with "Bobby" and Fyunck(click). This user has a difficult time explaining himself in English. He has indicated that he read the policies and understands them. Given his difficulty with English, I don't think he's going to have an easy time trying to explain himself more than he already has. Give him a chance to prove himself; if he does wrong again in the future and an indef. is required, then so be it. CycloneGU (talk) 03:35, 16 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

To administrators :

I'm already my English is not strong and I can't understand all the talk in the thread here WP:Edit warring and here WP:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle but I read the pages translated into Arabic and understand them well here ar:ويكيبيديا:حرب_تحرير_الصفحات and here ar:ويكيبيديا:دجان, and also asked me to explain to Mr. BWilkins what I understand:

Must not work more than three callbacks to the page in one day and that happened it would be a breach of the laws in Wikipedia and must rely on the sharing of collective and not individual action, must also resort to the pages of the debate at the time of editing warring solve the problem and you must be tactful and polite, because the basis of any successful work.

I at first I did not know the existence of these pages I swear I swear, but I now understand them well and i know what to do already and not, as in the past, Please Remove the block from me and I can't stay away from Wikipedia please.

I am very sorry.

Speedy deletion nomination of Jay Abdo

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Jay Abdo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.imdb.com/search/text?realm=name&field=bio&q=Damascus. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. reddogsix (talk) 04:22, 22 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
