Edit filter false positives

I've been dealing with bad faith reports pretty effectively, though not using Rollback except if the edits contained really disgusting stuff (mostly don't). How do I deal with true false positives? Actually, that question is moot considering that I shouldn't get involved in things I know little of. Computer-related stuff is my domain, as well as chess.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:20, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Handling false positives is tricky. You might want to leave that for the EFMs to handle, since they can adjust the filters if needed. 28bytes (talk) 03:25, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

I was just wondering, since other editors who patrol that page often aren't EFMs, but typically are admins. But, I don't think I should do it unless the topic is in my domain, because that's produced bad results in the past.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:27, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Yes, sometimes it's good to focus on where your strengths lie. 28bytes (talk) 03:29, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

In any case, I'm hatching a novel idea. Do you think it's possible for me to give you my watchlist token so you can see what I do?Jasper Deng (talk) 03:30, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Sure, if you send it I will take a look. 28bytes (talk) 03:37, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Done via email.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:38, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

OK. I see a lot of things you can safely take off your watchlist: AN/I, Jimbo's talk page, Δ's talk page... actually, just about every user talk page you can probably remove. Keep mine and Kansan's if you like. The noticeboards you can safely drop. If you have more than 100 'hits' on your watchlist per day, that's probably too many. I have just under 3500 pages watchlisted, but most of those are extremely low-trafficked pages, so there are usually only about 10-20 under each day's entry in my watchlist. You don't want to get overwhelmed thinking you have to react to all the changes that occur. It's not a stock ticker, after all. 28bytes (talk) 03:47, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Sometimes I comment on things on Jimbo's page, but rarely. Talk pages of admins can pretty much go with the exceptions of Eagles (not very active, I sometimes discuss things with him) and you. Delta and the other active user talk pages can pretty much go. I watch admin talk pages as a result of having discussed something with them somewhere and don't take it off. I think that since we're mentioning other users here, the discussion should go into email. And yes, noticeboards like ANI and ANEW can both go. I'd like to keep the false positives page though since I do work on what's bad faith or not (It only takes a few minutes to give a good idea of what's good faith and not). Sorry, but I have to leave the internet in a few minutes, will spend my morning tommorow doing watchlist maintenance.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:54, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Getting back to the topic of edit filter false positives, this surely was not controversial.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:57, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Yep, that was fine. 28bytes (talk) 04:01, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Raffertie Page Deletion

Hi there!

I just unfortunately had a page speedy deleted that I made! It was made on the artist Raffertie who is very big in the UK & Europe and more prolific than other artists who have wikipedia pages but it was still deleted!

Firstly is there any chance I could get a copy of the deleted page?

Secondly, it is not clear to me why it was deleted? The excuse that was cited was due to notability, which I feel is completely unfounded! I also contested the speedy deletion before it happened...

Thanks for your time,

AN vs. ANI

With your template removal there are now 2 open threads on the same subject which is the worst case scenario. If you feel that strongly that it should be on AN you need to finish the job and direct the ANI thread back to AN.--Cube lurker (talk) 21:18, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Oh whatever

So I'm the bad guy now? Fine, I'll let him put whatever shite he likes on his pages but don't pretend that that is going to lead to peace and harmony, the more people who see it the more drama will result. Egg Centric 22:05, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

You're not the bad guy. But edit-warring with him on his own talk page is a bad idea, guaranteed to further inflame the situation. You're familiar with WP:BRD, right? KoshVorlon boldly refactored TT's comment, TT reverted it, the next step is not for you to re-revert. 28bytes (talk) 22:09, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Great Scrabble Massacre of 2420

The article Great Scrabble Massacre of 2420 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A serious and hardcore violation of WP:CRYSTALBALL

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons, including the making fun of respected administrators.

You could have prevented the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page, but the violation was deemed to be so blatant that immediate deleting seemed the only reasonable thing.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

"Their own editor review"

I object to your closing comment, which was repeated on my talk page, that this editor review was owned by Cerejeta.

Also, you are incorrect that I was edit-warring. Numerous persons have noted that the other editor improperly edited my comments.

You should have the courtesy to correct your error in the closing statement.

 Kiefer.Wolfowitz 11:21, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Indeed, Cerejeta does not own his editor review, any more than I own my talk page. The English genitive is often responsible for unfortunate ambiguities that only lengthy, stilted legalese can clarify; I assume most reasonable editors understand my use of the genitive was not to imply ownership in the Wikipedia sense, and if not, feel free to point them here for clarification.

Regarding the edit-warring, there is precedent that editors are allowed to remove editor reviews they do not find useful. In my opinion, Cerejeta made a poor decision by removing your review, and you made a poor decision by reinstating it. Reinstating something previously removed without getting consensus to do so is indeed starting an edit war, in my opinion. 28bytes (talk) 19:35, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

I do note with appreciation the olive-branch you offered Cerejota here. 28bytes (talk) 20:08, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

RfA Reform update

Hi. It's been a little while since the last message on RfA reform, and there's been a fair amount of slow but steady progress. However, there is currently a flurry of activity due to some conversations on Jimbo's talk page.

I think we're very close to putting an idea or two forward before the community and there are at least two newer ones in the pipeline. So if you have a moment:

• Have a look at the min requirement proposal and familiarise yourself with the statistics, I'd appreciate comment on where we should put the bar.
• Any final comments would be appreciated on the clerks proposal.
• Feedback on the two newer proposals - Pre-RfA & Wikipedia:RfA reform 2011/Sysop on request. Both are more radical reforms of RfA and might run along side the current system.

Thanks for reading and for any comments that you've now made.

Delivered by MessageDeliveryBot on behalf of RfA reform 2011 at 21:36, 6 September 2011 (UTC).

1RR exemption (again)

...for this and this. The first is original research (Youtube is not reliable) and blatantly fails WP:MOS with unnecessary details and references to the reader, and the second links to what I know to be an unreliable source.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:37, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi Jasper. Unless I'm missing something I don't see any edits by you to the talk page... that's where the discussion should be happening, not via edit summaries. (I'm glad you self-reverted that dodgy use of rollback, BTW, you gotta be careful with that.) Have you checked the WP:RSN archives for the site you believe is unreliable? If it's not listed there, you may want to open a discussion there to get other editors' feedback. Also, since Worm That Turned is taking over your mentoring for me, please point him to this discussion so he can weigh in with his recommendations as well. 28bytes (talk) 03:46, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

RSN archives return nothing about "Windows 8 News", so I'm opening a discussion there. But the first edit I referred to definitely is against policy.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:52, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Hey both. Jasper, thanks for pointing me here. I'm sorry I haven't had as much time to mentor you actively, but you are welcome to come to me with any of these sorts of queries. As 28bytes points out, discussion should be happening. There's no need to revert more than once - I don't think I've done it often - if at all. Remembering the idea that there is no deadline, wikipedia can be "wrong" for short periods, discussion is essential. Worm^TT · (talk) 08:55, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Categorization

I was editing the last three World War II sites to finish the Category:World War II sites, however, Manxruler believes they are unneccessary. Yes, edit categories not subcategorized can go for more many pages for a category page, although, I am hoping he would keep his patience, about me and for many other new users, since he has never completed to delete Santo Tomas Internment Camp. I hope I can, freely, continue to do last edits for the World War II sites, before anything unusual sprinkles out. --Corusant (yadyadyada) 18:55, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

JesseRafe unblock

28bytes - we've seen each other around plenty of times and I have great respect for you so I'd rather you not take this as the start of a grudge, but I do have to say that I am rather upset. I don't disagree with the unblock, that was perfectly fine as JesseRafe understands his behavior was disruptive and has agreed to stop. What I am upset about is the apologetic nature of the unblock. The block was perfectly warranted. I don't believe Valenciano's comments were racist. Personally, I am seeing a lot of reverse racism. His comments were about a specific newspaper catering to a specific audience covering a politician that is part of that audience and whether that made it a reliable source outside of that audience. "Hispanic" is not racist, and I come from Texas where there is a large Hispanic population. "[T]his unpleasant experience" was caused by JesseRafe attacking an editor who very clearly was evaluating sources to determine adherence to guidelines. If you feel Valenciano has caused the disruption, that is a reason to block him. It's not a reason to apologize to JesseRafe for a block he received for his own behavior that was disruptive.--v/r - TP 13:38, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

I apologize if I stepped on your toes a bit here. I think I've made clear that I support the original block placed by you, and certainly would not have unblocked JesseRafe outside of an unblock request. That said, I really can understand why JesseRafe took offense to those remarks, and my view is that if he was nonetheless willing to drop the matter and move on, denying the unblock request would not serve any useful purpose. This is one of those cases, I believe, where both editors could argue from now until eternity whether those remarks were appropriate, and I thought the best route to avoiding that would be an explicit unblock condition that the matter would be dropped.

Regarding the "unpleasant experience" comment, being blocked is an unpleasant experience for a good-faith editor, even when the block was warranted (and to reiterate, I do support the original block.) Please don't misinterpret my recognizing that it's unpleasant for a critique against its necessity. I think it's important in these situations to let the editor know that you understand where they're coming from, even if you don't agree. 28bytes (talk) 14:14, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

Alright, fair enough. I can see your reasoning.--v/r - TP 14:21, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism

This user's edit summary is obvious vandalism, can you please remove it? --ChristianandJericho 09:51, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) If I'm right, an edit summary on a talk page is a weak reason for revdeletion, according to what other admins have told me before. I'd rather RBI (revert, block ignore).Jasper Deng (talk) 16:30, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

If another admin wishes to revdel it, I don't have a problem with that, but I don't normally revdel edit summaries just for foul language, unless the language is directed at someone. But thank you for bringing it to my attention. 28bytes (talk) 23:01, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

B. Hall

Please help me. I made a page about B. Hall, 1940s cartoonist and artist. It was "speedily deleted." (It had the mistaken name Songcat: B. Hall.) Barbara Hall Fiske is my mother, but she is also a person of some repute and has appeared in a book called The Great Women Cartoonists by Trina Robbins (Workman, 2008). Also she is among the cartoonists listed in Lambiek's Comicopedia. She is the co-founder of Quarry Hill Creative Center, which already has its own page on Wikipedia.

Hi. Yes, I do have a page number tho' not right in front of me but I can put it in. There are perhaps two pages on my mother, with a comic she drew. Also, the online Comicopedia (encyclopedia of comics) by "Lambiek" in Holland (it's easily found on Google-- or I can find the www address so you can see it if you like) has a substantive listing for her. She's a hero to the comic fans, at least quite a few of them. Then she has been mentioned many times in Vermont Magazine, the local paper, etc. For instance: Vermont Magazine, May-June 2008 also: http://www.ourherald.com/news/2002-02-21/People/p04.htmlSongcat (talk) 13:56, 27 September 2011 (UTC) Thanks.

I appreciate your helping save my story about B. Hall (Barbara Hall Fiske). IsabellaSongcat (talk) 00:10, 26 September 2011 (UTC) Thanks very much. Read your most recent note. I can find other sources easily by checking the Wikipedia page on Quarry Hill Creative Center, but one thing I'd like to say is that there may not be as many of them as there are about my father, Irving Fiske. My mother had a nervous breakdown in 1965 and didn't recover till the mid-Seventies. I don't mind (nor does she) making this a part of the Wiki story, but finding sources that are only about her may be a bit more difficult because of this "time out" in her life. Thanks.... Songcat (talk) 21:43, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi-- I found some more references and included some more info on my mother's life. Please see what you think and whether it can now be a Wikipedia page called Barbara Hall Fiske Calhoun, B.

Would you mind a brief response?

I'd like to know why you closed the discussion of Toddst1's conduct. I see a rather rude reply to me filed by Borean Hunter, but I haven't been get anyone to explain why I can't seem to write a response. The page indicates it is "semi-protected"? Anyways, a response would be appreciated. I still feel his conduct was wholly rude, incivil, and definitely qualifies as "unbecoming an administrator" as he is still unwilling to admit that he did anything at all wrong. 76.31.236.91 (talk) 23:00, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Sure, glad to respond. I semi-protected the page yesterday in response to the fellow a couple of sections above on this talk page repeatedly hurling abuse at people. The semi-protection will expire in a couple of hours.

The problem with the AN/I thread, in my view, is that just about everyone could have behaved much better than they did. Yes, you were treated poorly, and I don't endorse that at all. But I don't think you'll be able to extract an apology from anyone, however much you may deserve one. People naturally get defensive when challenged, and are wired to resist demands to admit that they may have made a mistake. Unfortunate, but that's the way it is, it seems. So what now? I guess you could file an arbitration request, but if it were me, I would just forgive and move on. Life's too short to spend on such things, in my opinion. You'll have far more people in your corner if you rise above it than if you insist on an apology.

At any rate, the reason I closed the AN/I thread is that there was nothing more for an administrator to do. We can block and unblock people, and delete and undelete pages, but we can't force anyone to apologize, or strip admin rights from anybody. If you want to pursue it further, there are other venues for it, but there was really nothing further that AN/I thread could accomplish. (Sorry I was not able to respond more briefly.) 28bytes (talk) 00:12, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

Ok. I am still considering if I want to take it any further. The problem as I see it is that I was very nastily mistreated and Toddst1 appears to have done the same thing to others in the past, from what I was shown and able to read over the course of the past couple weeks. That and, I believe Toddst1 may be either the person, or one of his friends may be the person, who wrote many things like you point out above on your talkpage. There is a disturbing pattern where they will block someone, and a very profane person will magically appear for them to blame on whoever they blocked. Having been the target of this tactic last saturday, it is a point of major concern to me. 76.31.236.91 (talk) 01:13, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

No worries. The RfCs have been listed at AN for over a month, so they will probably remain unclosed for several more days. Cunard (talk) 08:18, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

ANI thread

Thank you for letting me know about the ANI thread. Expect I will respond later today. I notice that User:Lawrencekhoo is also mentioned there, but I'm not sure he has been notified. Johnfos (talk) 16:11, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
