It's clean-up duty, mopping up after the dishonest, incompetent, and fanatical. Can't imagine why you'd have a problem with that.

Some ground rules before you leave a message

  1. I am not an admin. I did not delete your page or article, nor did I block you. I may have, at the very most, suggested or urged deletion of pages or articles but I have no power or ability to do so on my own. I'm just an editor.
  2. This also means, of course, I cannot undelete your page/article, nor unblock you. I can, however, offer you a cookie.
  3. If you are here to make an argument dependent on arcane or convoluted interpretations of Wikipedia guidelines or rules, note that Wikipedia is not game of nomic nor a court of law. Adherence to common sense and rational argument trumps ruleslawyering, as far as I'm concerned. I've been there, done that, got the t-shirt, thankyouverymuch.
  4. There is no Rule 4.
  5. Don't post when drunk. Seriously.
  6. All communication sent via the "E-mail this user" link is considered public, at my discretion. Reasonable requests for confidentiality will be honored, but the whole "e-mail is sacrosanct and private" argument I do not buy for one solitary second. Do not expect to use that argument as an all-purpose shield.
  7. Do not assume I'm stupid, especially when arguing for something obviously untrue. I do not respond well to having my intelligence insulted.
  8. Don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams. Do I look like Montel Williams? Do I? NO? Then don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams.
  9. Especially bogus, hostile, and/or trolling remarks are subject to disemvoweling.
  10. Please post at the bottom of the page and "sign" your posts using the squiggly things (--~~~~).
  11. Please extinguish all cigarettes, as this is a No Smoking page.
Thank you. -- The Management.

Timothy Paul Baymon

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Timothy Paul Baymon, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Timothy Paul Baymon. Thanks, TallMagic (talk) 02:58, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi -- Some of the links you've been removing are to reviews by published authors and recognized authorities. See WP:EL#Links normally to be avoided, item #12. Thanks RedSpruce (talk) 18:18, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Blog links, with rare exceptions, are not reliable sources.
  2. Because I said so" is not one of those exceptions.
  3. Reprinting of reliable sources from elsewhere isn't either.
  4. If those reprints are, in fact, reliable, link directly to them or cite them. If you can't, then they weren't reliable sources to begin with.
--Calton | Talk 21:45, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, all of your points are based on a misunderstanding about which WP rule applies here. The issue here is external links, not sources being used as a reference. The latter are required to be WP:Reliable sources, while the former are required to meet the requirements listed under WP:External Links. As you can see from the link I inserted above, the links are acceptable and appropriate under WP:EL.
Re. your point #4, these reprints aren't available anywhere else online, as far as I was able to determine. Luckily, the WP rules are quite clear-cut on this matter, and they make it clear that the current links are acceptable.
If you have any further response, you can do so here. RedSpruce (talk) 22:28, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your Lack of Civility

Please, stop accusing myself and other editors of being sock puppets of Wyatt Ehrfrenels as you did here,here,here, here, here, here, here and in several other places. I told you very clearly some weeks back that I am not Wyatt, nor do I have any affiliation with Wyatt . Unfounded allegations such as these are less than civil, particularly when used to obfiscate the fact that you have been blanking other users’ pages, accusing them of being “non-editors” and reposting old deleted messages on other users' pages. All anyone has done is reverted your vandalism and harassment of other users. Instead of hurling false allegations of sock puppetry at other editors, why not try abiding by Wikipedia’s rules?

If you sincerely believe that all the editors reverting your talk page vandalism are sock puppets of Wyatt Ehrfrenels, I suggest you file a formal complaint. A simple IP check will surely clear me. Rather than playing “ net cop” for Wikipedia’s user pages, you may wish to dedicate your time to improving ARTICLES. I’m sure there are more positive contributions you could make to Wikipedia. MegaMom (talk) 06:11, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Instead of hurling false allegations of sock puppetry at other editors, why not try abiding by Wikipedia’s rules?
As far as I'm concerned, I follow Wikipedia content and usage rules consistently, while you -- and probably also using a smattering of TOR nodes and anonymous IPs -- to blindly revert another editor's edits, are not. Please don't insult my intelligence with this talk of following rules while you self-servingly pick and choose which ones you follow, Wyatt. --Calton | Talk 06:19, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
Again, I am not Wyatt, nor have I edited under any TOR nodes or IP's other than the one attached to my account. You're behavior is uncivil and inappropriate. MegaMom (talk) 06:23, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
And what I have reverted is called VANDALISM. I suggest you familiarize yourself with WP:TALK or I will most certainly be bringing this matter up the chain of command. Consider that a friendly warning. MegaMom (talk) 06:26, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
And I suggest you familiarize yourself with the actual meaning of vandalism before accusing someone of it. Say, doesn't that fall under the civility guidelines you claim to uphold?
Again, I am not Wyatt - Yeah, your sudden appearance echoing his beliefs, obsession with me, prose style, and intimate knowledge thereof while jumping in with false accusations concerning me and blind stalking of my edits is SO coincidental. --Calton | Talk 06:31, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
Gee, last I checked PAGE BLANKING and reposting old deleted messages on talk pages was considered vandalism. And it IS a coincidence. Go file a report - I'm not Wyatt and I have no affiliation with him. Go ahead and have me checked out - you are mistaken. Yes, I've seen Erhenfel's Cyberstalking Site - as thousands of people probably have. I have also read the very unflattering material available about you on the Encyclopedia Dramatica and numerous other sites. Whether you would like to admit it or not, you have made yourself NOTORIOUS all over the Internet for harassing people. And as for Erhenfel's or anyone else having an "obsession" with you, I would suggest the reverse is more likely the case. Famous people are seldom "obsessed" with unknown people. If you actually read the Cyberstalking article instead of just blindly reverting it, you might learn a thing or two. No one is "stalking" you. You are not the "victim". The people you have libeled and harrassed are the victims. MegaMom (talk) 06:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Your accusation of User:MegaMom being a sock-puppet

I've looked a bit at MegaMom's edits, and she doesn't look to me like a sockpuppet of Wyatt Ehrenfels. It's possible, however, that I'm wrong. If you believe that there is reasonable evidence linking them, please file a report at WP:SSP. Feel free to ad any other users who you suspect are also sockpuppets of Wyatt. Until filing such a report, please refrain from calling her a sockpuppet of Wyatt. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:55, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I came here to comment on the note you left on my Talk page, saying pretty much the same thing as עוד מישהו, who beat me to it. I don't know who Wyatt Ehrenfels is, and had not heard of User:MegaMom until (s)he posted on my Talk page, so I don't know if you are right or wrong. If you have evidence of sockpuppetry, post it in the appropriate wikipedia page. It is unacceptable to simply go around tossing accusations. Canadian Monkey (talk) 01:54, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
What "proof" are you looking for, fingerprints and DNA? It's called "circumstantial evidence"; namely User:MegaMom's sudden unsolicited appearance in an unrelated dispute on WP:AN/I repeating Wyatt's original nutty paranoia and adding some bizarre claims about how I mistreated "her" child.
For some nutty paranoid goodness so you can compare, see this bizarre page of Wyatt's.
As far as I'm concerned, this passes the duck test, and I will continue to treat this character like the obvious sockpuppet/meatpuppet he/she is. --Calton | Talk 17:56, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say she isn't. I didn't say you shouldn't say she is - I said there's a right way to do things like that. If you think she passes the duck test, feel free to file a report at WP:SSP. Until you file such a report, please refrain from calling her a sockpuppet. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 05:56, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, please, file a report and stop leaving me uncivil messages, rife with defamatory commentary and personal attacks against this poor author you have apparently invested so much time and energy into harrassing. Again, I am NOT Wyatt, I do not know Wyatt and have no connection with him, what-so-ever. I had never even heard of Wyatt until I began researching your cyberstalking activities. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a free web hosting service, for people like you to use as a means of publicly smearing people you don't like.[2] Frankly, I think your destructive conduct is out of control and you should be permanently blocked from participating in this project. The harm you do, far outweighs any good. Go, right ahead and file a report. You are mistaken, which makes your commentary all the more UNCIVIL. MegaMom (talk) 02:25, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The proof I'm looking for is some sort of report detailing the evidence of sock-puppetry: cases where the same IP address was used by the two different aliases, cases where one alias referred to the other as himself, or, at a minimum, a pattern of the two editors making the same edits on the same articles. None of this exists, so, no, I don't think this passes the duck test, or even comes close to it. All I see is one editor - Wyatt Ehrenfels - who was active for all of 2 weeks more than 2 years ago, and edited 4 articles. Then we have MegaMom, who started editing in March 2007, edited completely different articles, and then 7 months later clashed with you, and brought up Wyatt Ehrenfels' web site in a report against you. You see this as proof that MegaMom and Wyatt Ehrenfels are one and the same, which is a self-centered world view. To me this seems like a user whom you've irked, who Googled you, found the stalking charges against you on the web, and posted them. I don't know which one of us is right, but until you go to the trouble of actually trying to establish that this is a case of sock puppets, by filing an appropriate report, you cannot go around tarnishing the names of editors in good standing.

The Nixzmary Brown Page

Okay, I give up! What on the page informs you that it's a blog?--MurderWatcher1 (talk) 19:38, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing. I'm going by a long-ago discussion on Talk:Terri Schiavo, where this website by one June Maxam was a part of the "Terri Schiavo is being murdered" faction and campaign.* Since then, I've been removing tlinks to there wherever I find them. Given that you already have other sources, what's the point of fighting for this one?

*Since I'm NOT trawling through the megabytes of material in the archives, I'll be lazy and point to some external results pulled up through Google -- most of which I wasn't actually familiar with until now, but certainly strengthens my case.

None of these are reliable sources for, say, writing an article about June Maxam, but do show the unreliability of "North Country Gazette" as a bonafide source. --Calton | Talk 13:17, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The on-going saga of Wyatt Ehrenfels

Thank you for your message. I had read the contributions of Wyatt, Tai Streets and the two IP's prior to forming my view, and I agree with your summary of Wyatt's campaign under those identities on the various subject matters of cyberstalking, privacy, and the like. Were he to create another sockpuppet with which to continue his campaign, do you really think he would bother building up a history of sensible editing to unrelated articles for nine months before relaunching his campaign? Personally I'd think it unlikely - particularly given the nature of the articles concerned, as I said in my earlier message to MegaMom.

Having seen, and been on the receiving end, of your particular style of communication, and having seen the voracious speed and single-mindedness with which you perform your chosen tasks on Wikipedia, I think it entirely more likely that you've crossed paths with her son and (assuming good faith) without knowing that they were a minor, come across somewhat harshly. Her popping up at WP:ANI here is therefore not surprising - I agree with Canadian Monkey's comments above on this. That you conclude from her doing so that she is Wyatt is one stretch too far, in my view. After all - I contributed to that ANI myself. Would you like to slap a Wyatt sockpuppet tag on my userpage?

At the end of the day, however, you need to sh*t or get off the pot. Accuse her of being a sockpuppet, if you like, but there are now multiple editors telling you that they can see no evidence of sockpuppetry from her contributions. If you accuse her again, and still remain unprepared to go to WP:RFCU to seek the evidence required, then I will request that you be blocked for continuing to breach WP:Civil. I suspect I'd find myself in a queue. Giles Bennett (Talk, Contribs) 17:19, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since you missed it, I'll highlight it above. Look for the boldface. Note: Arguments from Incredulity don't carry much weight with me.
Thank you for the highlighting. Please note that, given we're talking about sockpuppetry, the nature, rather than the number, of the edits carry weight with me.
And I think it best not to pull things straight out of your hat, especially given the ironclad standards you're demanding of me regarding the recycled nonsense generated by User:MegaMom.
As you'll see from her userpage, her providing the username of her son would go some way to clearing this up relatively quickly. I have asked her to provide me with that information - off-wiki if preferred.
You first. Care to back up that weasel-worded "entirely more likely" with something reality-based?
"Something more reality-based" is an interesting choice of words for someone persistently refusing to go to WP:RFCU and get, er, something more reality-based to support his accusations.
Try reading above: Focus especially on the recycled nonsense at AN/I. There were "multiple editors" noting the bizarre nature of "her" claims, but those don't count, I guess.
I have made my position clear, I believe. Do what you will. Giles Bennett (Talk, Contribs) 17:43, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Three different editors, one of them an administrator, have already told you that your assertion that User:MegaMom is Wyatt is dubious. There's no need for you to comment on this any further on my talk page, and I hope you take Giles Bennett's warning to heart. Canadian Monkey (talk) 18:55, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to file a formal complaint against MegaMom at WP:SSP. However, if you continue to make accusations off that page, you may be blocked for civility issues. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 06:07, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Please also be aware that I'm not reading your detailed evidence linking these users. Some admins, but not me, look at WP:SSP to try and determine which reports are correct and which aren't. It's them you need to convince, not me. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 06:18, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User:Wyatt Ehrenfels

I have blanked the above page, removing your sockpuppet tag. The "evidence" you provide is an edit by Tai Streets - that would justify putting a tag on Tai Streets' page stating that it he a suspected sock puppet of Wyatt Ehrenfels, but does not justify putting a tag on Wyatt Ehrenfels stating that he is a suspected sock puppet of Wyatt Ehrenfels. Perhaps this template would be more appropriate? Giles Bennett (Talk, Contribs) 08:59, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I've read the link. In fact, I read the link before I posted my message to you. Apparently, however, you didn't read my message before posting your message to me, as if you had done you would have seen that I've never argued that Wyatt Ehrenfels is not Tai Streets. The link which you cited is just one piece of evidence of this. Since, however, Tai Streets started editing after Wyatt Ehrenfels started editing then the correct approach is to tag Tai Streets as a sockpuppet of Wyatt Ehrenfels, and tag Wyatt Ehrenfels as having abused one or more sock puppet accounts. Tagging Wyatt Ehrenfels as a sockpuppet of Wyatt Ehrenfels and citing an edit by Tai Streets as an example is simply incorrect.
If you think that the phrase "shit or get off the pot" is hostile, then I happily apologise for it. It summed up my thoughts at the time quite neatly, and they remain as above. Since you don't seem to understand my purpose in this, let me repeat it for you one more time. Either MegaMom is a sockpuppet of Wyatt or she is not. You think she is, I don't. I could describe your rationalisations as "ludicrous", but don't, as you are entitled to your view and for it not to be denigrated by others. What you're not allowed to do, however, is to continue calling her a sockpuppet without being prepared to back up your accusations by completing the very quick, very easy process at WP:RFCU which would establish whether or not you're correct - a process which I see you continue to shy away from. There's no obligation on you to make a check-user request, so long as you continue (as you have been for 18 hours or so) from refraining from accusing her of being a sockpuppet until you do so. This would appear to be the makings of an uneasy truce between you and her...long may it continue. And not just because half the pages you war with her on have been fully protected. Giles Bennett (Talk, Contribs) 12:49, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have amended the tag slightly, and hope that it achieves what you we both think it should achieve. As for User:172.150.92.250, there are no undeleted contributions remaining, so it's a bit pointless putting the sockpuppet tag on their userpage - the current tag shows a link to an edit by User:67.129.121.254, which doesn't constitute evidence that User:172.150.92.250 is a sockpuppet - I am sure they may have been edits in the past which are now deleted, but given that IP address are not static, it would be inappropriate to leave the tag on that page. Giles Bennett (Talk, Contribs) 21:10, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If I recall correctly the deleted material (I only flagged it for db-author, as I'm not an admin) wasn't to do with your identity, but MegaMom had grasped the wrong end of a stick and was shaking it furiously by confusing the edit history of the user page with the account history of the user concerned. I thought deletion was, in all the circumstances, the more sensible option as you two had enough to argue about without a misapprehension adding fuel to the fire.
As I said to her, Wikipedia's a pretty big place, and hopefully it's big enough for both of you to co-exist without having to bump into each other again. gb (t, c) 13:20, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have undone your edit to the added data I have put into the Mossimo page. While I do understand that I am not allowed to put in links to blogs and opinion sites, the Mossimo design on t-shirts in the Philippines does exist and this controversy is still unresolved among members of the International Order of DeMolay in this country. When Mossimo reacts to this controversy I put in verifiable sources of the company's reaction as well. There has been no reactions whatsoever from Mossimo as of yet, either to deny their having made such a design or that they have recalled the said t-shirt product.

Userpages which seem to be articles or advertisements

When you run into a userpage which looks like an article or an advertisement, it's probably a good idea to check if there are any non-free images in it. Such images are allowed, under some circumstances, in the article namespace, but never anywhere else. If such an image is in the userpage, feel free to remove it, with an appropriate message for the user. If the image isn't anywhere else, then please tag it with {{subst:orfud}}, and it will probably be deleted a week later. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 08:19, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please make an effort to remain WP:CIVIL in the future. Thank you, 76.87.47.110 (talk) 06:14, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
