The referendum article

I am going to delete the section on India and Pakistan in the Referendum article, it just serves as a POV magnet for opposing editors from Pakistan and India and has no sources. Pahari Sahib 13:57, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

That's fine with me. To what Nangparbat was talking about. I don't simply revert because he thinks I'm anti-Pakistan. But it's just standard WP policy to revert actions by banned users to enforce a ban. I hope that this didn't cause you to think differently. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 14:00, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Oh don't worry, I didn't ;-) Pahari Sahib 14:02, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Taiwan included in high income economy

See this. [1] --211.179.112.25 (talk) 08:47, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Okay. But you have to add the source in with that with the current source. Because this (the current source does not support it. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 09:20, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

my contributions to 'kolkata' article , and the justifications to include them .

Hi ,

if you notice closely i have actually not inserted anything new . i have just taken parts of the current existing 'kolkata' article which are very widely accepted and edited the introduction part to give it a better description of the city . as it stands in the current version i really feel it conveys a rather 'pessimistic' and 'negative' image of kolkata ,my contribution was not 'too optimistic' , rather just wanted to make it sound more neutral to a reader who is reading about the city for the first time .

'riots , political violence , poverty , congestion , trade unionism ' etc is Not what defines kolkata . so in the present form of the article , the introduction stands really disappointing about one of the most remarkable cities on this planet . i am currently writing from UK , and i can assert you that this is a generally shared view of many of this article . kolkata is an unique city and should have been introduced in a more sensitive and glorious way .

as per verifications-

1) calcutta WAS the capital of british india , and the 'first city 'by population , influence and commerce even long after the capital was shifted to delhi in 1911 .

2)it WAS the seat of 'modern indian renaissance' . ( english and european education , abolition of 'sati' , women education , influence of swami vivekananda , rabindranath tagore , first library , first printing press , indian independance movement , presidency college , first medical college , bengal art movement .. etc. ). much of this is ALREADY CONTAINED in the LATTER SECTIONS of the current revision and is THEREFORE ACCEPTED BY YOU BEFORE .

3)among noble laureates RABINDRANATH TAGORE , AMARTYA SEN hail from kolkata . MOTHER THERESA lived in kolkata for the significant part of her life . RONALD ROSS AND C.V. RAMAN were awarded noble prizes for all the work they had done in kolkata . SATYAJIT RAY , another distinguished calcuttan was the first indian to have been awarded a SPECIAL ACADEMY AWARD ON LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT ( OSCAR) . all these names already figure in latter sections of your current article .In music PANDIT RAVI SHANKAR and recent grammy award winner BIKRAM GHOSH hails from kolkata as well along with many others .

4)'WIDELY DUBBED AS THE CULTURAL CAPITAL OF INDIA' is an excerpt from your CURRENT ARTICLE in a latter section .

5) 'CITY OF JOY' is another widely accepted name , since the time dominic lapierre's famous novel of the same name was became an international hit , followed by a movie of the same name .REF: wikepedia.

6)kolkata was the FIRST city in india to have launched a cell phone service . it was the first and only city in india to have the underground METRO service till recently when delhi become the second city to have a functioning metro service . the details of above can be verified from 'WIKEPEDIA' by clicking on respective links or searches .

7)Kolkata IS the home to largest 'ANGLO INDIAN CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY , ARMENIAN COMMUNITY , CHINESE COMMUNITY , JAIN COMMUNITY AND TRADITIONALLY ONE OF THE LARGEST MUSLIM COMMUNITIES ( even before the creation of east pakistan and subsequently bangladesh ).kolkata IS very cosmopolitan , these are known facts ,and anybody denying these facts will be looked at with wonder by millions .

8)WHAT I HAD BASICALLY ATTEMPTED IN MY CONTRIBUTION WAS A TRANSPOSED SUMMARY OF WHAT KOLKATA STANDS FOR AND IS LOVED ABOUT FROM LATTER SECTIONS OF YOUR OWN ARTICLE , BECAUSE MANY OF MY FRIENDS HAVE EARLIER COMMENTED TO ME ON THE RATHER NEGATIVE SOUNDING INTRODUCTION THAT THE CURRENT VERSION OF THE ARTICLE HAS .

I WOULD LIKE YOU TO CONSIDER REINSTALLING MY CONTRIBUTION ON THE ABOVE ARTICLE IF YOU THINK THAT WAY .

THANKS

Your contributions are appreciated and I know the information you added, however you have to understand that Kolkata is a featured article (you can see by the bronze star on the upper right corner of the article) which means that are certain guidelines . Check Wikipedia:Featured articles. Also the edit is too optimistic and not very neutral. Please see WP: NPOV. Phrases such "City a class of its own", and also "Many countless admirers" is definitely not neutral. Furthermore some of the information is controversial and not mentioned anywhere else in the article such as the first city to have cell phone service and modern, vibrant, and cosmopolitan megalopolis. Maybe in India but compared to a person from Japan or Canada, I don't think that Kolkata would be a city that would come up that people would see as modern and cosmopolitan. Also, the edit was riddled with grammatical errors and wording issues. Like you said, the information is already stated in the article. So in this case, duplicating material is redundant. So a summary, while great is repetitive and not very helpful overall. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 15:05, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

thanks, and have a look

You just removed the inappropriate warning from Rjanag's talkpage. Same person keeps warring @ South Korea via IP. I've started an SPI, but I'm tired of reverting that stuff. Neither user nor (sockpuppet?)-IP leave any comments at Talk. Have a look if you can. thanks. Seb az86556 (talk) 12:09, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

I'll take a look. I've been trying to look into things ever since this user also gave me an inappropriate warning. But I did note something yesterday. In this user's talk page, User talk:HOOTmag:

"Where are you from? --Rayesworied (talk) 05:47, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

   Where are you from? HOOTmag (talk) 00:47, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

       I am from in South Korea. --Rayesworied (talk) 08:27, 27 August 2009 (UTC)"

The IP geolocates to South Korea and Rayesworried is in or from South Korea. It's possible that they are related. So it wouldn't surprise me if they were the same person. Also base on the editing patterns (same pages and message patterns), it be the same person. Also it might be a good idea to ask for a rangeblock because I've seen the anon user use multiple IP's. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 12:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

The SPI is here. If you know other possible socks or would like to comment, go for it. Seb az86556 (talk) 12:27, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

I added my comment to the SPI about the one above. I'm trying to find the other IP's but can't seem to find them at the moment. If I find anymore, I'll be sure to add them to the SPI case. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 12:29, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Added some IPs and commented on them. The bot seems to like to remove my comments however for some reason (I think it's the timestamp on my quote). I'll try to keep my comments on. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 12:44, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

thanks for reverting vandalism on my user page

Mupper3445

I've indef blocked the above account as the sock of Nangparbat. After analyzing Mupper3445's edits, I've no doubt in my mind that Mupper3445 = Nangparbat. Have a nice day! AdjustShift (talk) 17:37, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. Also I would also like to say have a nice day. :) Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 17:42, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Abuse response

Greetings! Thank you for filing an Abuse Report for abusive behavior originating from 79.0.0.0_-_79.63.255.255. A case has been opened.   bsmithme  21:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

thanks

Dear Elockid, thanks for dealing with Nangparbat. He was making inappropriate comments on my talk page. AdjustShift (talk) 00:25, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

I was about to press save regarding an apology on your talk page for making such a lengthy discussion. But it's good to know that you thought I was helping. That's what I was aiming for. Since Nangparbat has made several sock accounts over the last few days. I tagged a couple today, they might get through the semi-protection on your talk page and start making inappropriate comments again. I'll keep a more vigilant eye out. I hope that's okay with you.

This user is back with a new IP 86.158.179.169 hope u can do something about it. He is stalking me, in the way that all his edits were related to my previous edits.Qazmlp1029 (talk) 14:39, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

I don't think I can be of much help, sorry. I'm not an admin so I can't semi-protect any of the pages that he's editing. If you already talked to Nishkid or maybe User:YellowMonkey, they should be be able to help because they have dealt with this user before and can fix the problem. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 14:42, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

LOL your mate above is a sock himself Mrpontiac1 anyone? 86.158.179.169 (talk) 20:34, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

You can't prove it and you were wrong in the past about socks. But you on the other hand are evading your ban. "Blocked users are not supposed to evade their block". Please follow your own advice and just stop. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 20:35, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Heres your banned mates comments stating the same thing as Mrpontiac1 or he even maybe be Dewan357 who knows but he is a sock and you are pathetic [2] 86.151.122.53 (talk) 22:04, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

A comment like that can't prove everything. Anyone can state it. Also take a look at what I said in the investigations, it sums up nicely about this. Elockid ^(Talk·_Contribs) 22:23, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Brothel

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Brothel. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Clovis Sangrail (talk) 14:02, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
