Thank you for the helpful links & virtual cookies (kind of hungry now), George8211! I suppose I shouldn't be surprised by the large amount of Wikipedia articles that I can/should read about creating/editing Wikipedia articles! Chief8 (talk) 17:53, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Erin Stewart (politician)

George, Can you assist me in how I can edit the Erin Stewart (politician) page to be titled Erin E. Stewart?

Thanks, David — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eestewart (talk • contribs) 14:04, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Eestewart: I'm afraid it's not possible per the Wikipedia policy on this as [1], [2], [3], and [4] all simply call her Erin Stewart.

A slightly unrelated question: are you related to her? —George8211 / T 18:04, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

George, Despite my login, I am not Erin Stewart. How can you assist me in removing some of the flagged notifications on the main page of Erin Stewart? Thank you? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eestewart (talk • contribs) 23:18, 7 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Eestewart: do you mean the stuff in the orange exclamation mark box? —George8211 / T 19:18, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have unreviewed a page you curated

Thanks for reviewing Treasure Chest Marketplace, George8211.

Unfortunately MrX has just gone over this page again and unreviewed it. Their note is:

Lie detection

I removed the {{cleanup-reorganize}} tag from Lie detection (which you added) because nothing looked immediately wrong. Let me know if I missed anything, if you remember what looked wrong to you at the time. Thanks, Beland (talk) 17:04, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Beland: thanks what did I do that for? I think all that needed to be done was demote the 1900s section heading, and that was at half seven pm my time, so was just a bit tired and illogical. —George8211 / T 20:23, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great, all taken care of then. 8) -- Beland (talk) 20:43, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bat shit crazy guys

There is an alternative to an SPI.

Sometimes I simply post at all three of their talk pages with the same message. That message includes pointing out that all three accounts are related and asks them to cut out the nonsense. Mentioning all three accounts in a list helps others know what is happening if it goes further.

Anyway, it could very well be 3 friends at an Internet cafe. Usually they get bored and never edit again. I watch their contribs and maybe search a few keywords. If things go further, then I seek blocks. Whether they are all the same person or 3 friends horsing around doesn't make much difference.

Oh, and in this case, an SPI may not be such a bad idea because one is now blocked. If the others continue to edit and they are the blocked editor, they would not be permitted to do so. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:00, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Anna Frodesiak: thanks for that. I wouldn't think they could be bothered to do anything more now. Interestingly, "bat shit crazy" comes up with two results, both quotes, in The Gothsicles and Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 unofficial disappearance theories. —George8211 / T 16:15, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers. I'll keep an eye on the two remaining editors' contribs. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:19, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
