3RR

edit

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:23, 9 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

This is your second warning. If you continue edit warring with other editors, especially without a valid reason in the edit summary, you may be blocked without warning. Thank you for stopping this nonsnense now. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 16:56, 12 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Anonim editing

edit

Yes, it looks like anonim pushes an unsourced version, so I semi-protected the articles you requested (all but Sea of Japan naming dispute) there the edit war seems to stop.

I noticed that you are quite above the 3RR on a few articles. Please never do it again or you will be blocked.

    • The issue is handled by User:Nihonjoe and seems to be handled well (doing everything I would do, only better). The edit for the Emperess and the Document is done mostly by established users so semi-protection would not help and the full protection is the last resort that I am not sure is warranted for a single abusive user. Please let me know if there is a new development in the drama and Nihonjoe is busy. abakharev 20:42, 13 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Vote manipulation

edit
Don't unilaterally change the outcome of the vote at Talk:Tsushima Basin! -- Chris 73 | Talk 14:03, 7 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Don't declare "winner" in violation of Wikipedia:Consensus.

I repeat, don't unilaterally change the outcome of the vote at Talk:Tsushima Basin or you will be blocked! -- Chris 73 | Talk 08:10, 8 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

You've been warned by Appleby about abusing your admin powers before. Who's being unilateral when there was no consensus as defined by Wikipedia:Consensus? Don't make up the outcome of the vote.

Alert for the unilateral changing the voting result on Talk:Tsushima Basin

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism, and if you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the hard work of others. Thank you.

--Questionfromjapan 06:32, 8 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Final Alert
 

This is the only warning you will receive. Your recent vandalism to Talk:Tsushima Basin was profoundly malicious. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Questionfromjapan 11:03, 8 July 2006 (UTC)Reply


3RR on East Sea

edit

Please read 3RR. Do not revert more than 3 times in 24 hours. This includes edits that have the effect of undoing other people's work, such as your four reverts in the last 24 hours at East Sea. If you continue, you will be reported and blocked. Thank you.--Questionfromjapan 10:59, 8 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello

edit

Dollarfifty: First off, thanks for your help with these socks.

The socks suck. And to top it off, there are some editors/administrators who are lazy enough that they don't take the time out to read the talk pages or look at the page histories and notice who are actual contributors to get an informed opinion about the situation and will either remain silent or even actually take the sock puppets' side.

My two cents: Please contribute if you can, preferably to Korea-related topics ;) Just do so with a grain of salt because you never know what will happen at Wikipedia and it will be a frusturating experience at times.

On the bright side, Administrator User:Nihonjoe understands that these "contributors" are just socks and has said he is trying to do something about them. (You can read my message to him on his talk page). Let me know if I can help with anything else. Tortfeasor 18:17, 8 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

please don't be discouraged. to be philosophical about it, i guess we just have to accept that, like all human endeavors, wikipedia has its ideals, and then the human element. as long as it's a human project, wikipedia will have biases, mistakes, partisans, trolls, idiots, & personal politics. but there are also many smart, well-intentioned, dedicated people who know more than i actually want to know. i'm no veteran, but my experience has been rewarding & addictive, & i've seen many articles improve tremendously, even if it takes two steps forward and one step back. your work can make a difference, really.
the current problems, i'm sure, will be worked out over time. the normal methods of dispute resolution really assume some level of good faith (not to mention english fluency), so i can't really see them working this time, but i'm sure wikipedia wouldn't be what it is today if it structurally couldn't handle some persistent sockpuppetry. hang in there, keep an eye out, & have fun. :-) Appleby 01:29, 11 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

yeah, i see another round of revert wars, & it would be a shame to get more articles locked, especially prominent ones like Japan. don't know what to tell ya, just try to be vigilent without being incivil. don't get stressed, just try working on some other articles for a while. have you seen the korea-related to-do list?

Goryeo

edit

i'm sorry. you're right. i also just checked and found out that searching Koryo actually redirects to Goryeo. my mistake, will be more attentive in the future.
