• Please clean up my block log. The block was put by mistake. GiantBluePanda (talk) 21:34, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

OK well, the Revision Deletion policy says that "Log redaction (outside of the limited scope of RD#2 for the move and delete logs) is intended solely for grossly improper content, and is not permitted for ordinary matters; the community needs to be able to review users' block logs and other logs whether or not proper. Due to its potential, use of the RevisionDelete tool to redact block logs (whether the block log entry is justified or not) or to hide unfavorable actions, posts and/or criticisms, in a manner not covered by these criteria or without the required consensus or Arbcom agreement, will usually be treated as abuse of the tool." So as you will understand, I won't be able to fulfill your request. Sorry, ... discospinster _talk 21:44, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Sure! but the user was right. ;) Drmies (talk) 02:54, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

Yes but it needs a reliable source! ... discospinster _talk 02:55, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

Come on Discospinster, I'm a MFing ADMIN--how reliable do you want it? Hey, while I have your ear, I fully protected Fulanito for a couple of hours over some edit warring. You know music--can you have a look at the article? There was a contentious section which was one of the things removed in the war; I'm wondering if there was some involvement. I blocked one of the warriors, 740BOYZ (talk · contribs), for impersonation; please check me to see if I'm following the proper user name policy guideline there (I got that wrong before). Of course, if you feel like improving the article, that would greatly benefit the world of merengue. Thanks, and happy editing, Drmies (talk) 03:07, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

The relevant policy seems to talk about individuals' names, not group names. However, {{uw-softerblock}} addresses representations of being associated with a group, and also the conflict of interest issue. As for improving the article, I know less than nothing about merengue, as far as I know it's a type of pie. ... discospinster _talk 03:20, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

Unlike the pie, merengue is really good for your hips. Hey, one of the warriors left me a note; please have a look on my talk page, "Fulanito Dispute". Thanks again, Drmies (talk) 03:24, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

Some one spreading wrong message about e.r eswaran as muslim and creating communal problems i request you to delet the wiki of e.r.eswaran or restore the original one created long ago.this is his site http://www.kongusingam.com/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Odanilai (talk • contribs) 02:29, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

I have reverted to a version that does not contain biographical problems. I suggest that when you make an edit, you use the edit summary box to describe what changes you are making. If you are making a major edit, such as removing a lot of text or any content with sources, discuss it on the article's talk page first. Otherwise another editor might think you are vandalising and remove your edit. ... discospinster _talk 02:53, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

Why did you delete my entry to List of Icelanders

Hello,

I was wondering why you deleted my entry to list of Icelanders. In case you are unfamiliar, Iceland only has aroudn 300,00 people in it's population. Someone from Iceland getting his PhD at a world renowned university is notable and of interest to all Icelanders. Would that not meet the criteria as defined by Wikipedia?

Thank you for your time.

Wikipedia's criteria of notability relates to a subject's being significantly discussed in reliable sources. If there are newspaper articles, for example, about him being an Icelandic PhD student at Stanford, then that would make him notable. ... discospinster _talk 20:24, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Shortmeets12

hi;

with respect i think you could have handled the situation with user:shortmeets12 better; this was a new editor who was clearly trying to contribute positively to the project.

but first boris, then you as well, kept repeatedly slapping them down. and then you blocked them <10 MINUTES after your first message, which means you effectively gave them no time to interact with you before imposing the block.

boris at least also violated the 3-revert policy (as did the noob of course, who isn't expected to know better).

i've re-added the new image in the 2012 subsection, as we have no other material to illustrate it.

to me, this seems like a really obvious solution to the whole problem, & i'm sorry but i don't understand why you, acting as an ADMINISTRATOR, didnt try a more contrcutive approach to resolving this?

also, you have neglected to provide an expiry date in the talkpage notice for your temporary block of the user, please correct this?

i'm sorry if this message seems a bit harsh, but we are trying VERY HARD to encourage more new editors, & your actions here have not been helpful. you are an admin, & you took action here as an admin, therefore more is expected of you.

regards & respectfully yours,

Content factually incorrect

Hi there

I was hoping you could help me, I am the communications manager of this organisation on this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharmacybrands

We did not load this content, and it is not factually correct. We do not know the author and when I try to change it, I get warning messages that I will be deleted as an editor.

What do I do now? I am legally the owner of information on this company, it is also a listed company on the NZ stock exchange and therefore having incorrect content is a risk to our organisation.

We do not want to use the page for advertising, we just need to update the information to be factually correct.

Can you help me?

Edit war at Ramil Safarov

Hi Discospinster, I've just blocked Frida1983 for edit warring and a full report for another user has also been filed at WP:AN3. There seems to be a full scale proxy-war Armenia vs Azerbaijan plus allies and neutrals going on at the page. I even think we should fully protect this BLP until some people have cooled down.
