List of United States presidential assassination attempts and plots

Would you consider the edit you just reverted on this page RD2/3 worthy? I am of that opinion. WNYY98 (talk) 22:44, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@WNYY98: Yes, combined with that edit summary i suppose it'd best removed entirely. Done so just now. Excirial ^{(Contact me,Contribs)} 23:00, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Inquiry

Need help enforcing a block evasion. An user editing on some of our articles was recently banned for a few weeks for socking. On one occasion he violated his ban by trying to edit by proxy on his talk page. This was reported to a neutral admin, for which his talk page access was promptly revoked as a consequence. *sigh* Now he's using the email function hoping to convince other editors to help him edit articles. Pretty cut and dry case of block evasion.

Simply looking to report this latest violation to another neutral admin to extend the block since if a blocked user emails you out of the blue, it is generally a good idea to notify a blocking admin, as this is normally an abuse of the email service. Since he's continuing to be disruptive and making it clear he has no intention to stop, I will recommend that his blocks be increased accordingly to deter further block evasion. This is a no-brainer and I can provide the necessary diffs if this is something within your realm of authority. But I'm not here to embarrass anyone, hence why I'm being discreet about this now. If this is something you can help me with, I will provide the diffs.200.219.247.171 (talk) 16:03, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there 200.219.247.171,

In some situations a third party such as myself can offer a fresh perspective but in this case I would advice taking this issue up with the admin or admin(s) who are already involved and / or issues the original block. If we are talking about sock-puppetry and block evasion the judgement call of whether or not this is correct is best left to someone already familiar with the situation that caused the original block. I would have to evaluate this situation from scratch and therefore it would be unlikely that my judgement on this matter would be as on point as someone already involved in this.

Hi Excirial, thank you for reviewing the legal technology article. Why did you delete the german section and my link? advocado is one of the leading legal technology companies in Germany since 2014!

Please ask if you need more information. Best Jacob 2003:6:181:C644:9C65:6E32:738C:F7E5 (talk) 20:57, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@2003:6:181:C644:9C65:6E32:738C:F7E5 and 2003:6:181:C644:9C65:6E32:738C:F7E5: Hello there Jacob,

I removed the link and - after inspection - the rest the German section due to the links not conferring to the external link guideline. The link itself has multiple reasons why it shouldn't be inserted in the article:

The link is promotional in nature - the website it links to exists for no other reason than to promote a company / sell a service.
The website is only cursory to the subject of the article which is legal technology. Certainly, it is a company that happens to work in that specific area but this is still not enough to warrant inclusion. Imagine if the Butcher article would link to every butchery shop in existance, or that the Human article would include every person alive.

The rule of the thumb is that company websites should not be added to articles unless there is specific reason to include a link, which in general only applies if the link is added to an article detailing the company itself. Excirial ^{(Contact me,Contribs)} 21:26, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

you messaged me: editing cary illinois

What are you talking about? I've never edited a thing on Wikipedia, but I was looking something up and suddenly a message from you popped up. It said something about me editing a page with a name like Cary Illinois. Who are you and why are you bothering me????

I would sign this, but I don't have any kind of ID for this site.
