Nudity

You commented at the voting discussion for Wikipedia:Proposed_very_good_articles#Nudity_2. Another user has expressed concerns that there are some sourcing issues with the article that need to be addressed before this is passed as a very good article. Would you mind reviewing the discussion at the vote page and adding your input (or help to find sources, if you can)? Thank you, Either way (talk) 22:02, 20 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

RfA Thankspam

  Microchip08/Archive/5, thanks for your comments in my recent RfA which closed as 12/11 or "no consensus". I hope to work on the things that were raised and prove to the community that I am worthy of the mop, this includes showing my RL stability, that I don't have Ownership issues with DYK and also showing that I know what consensus is. Special thanks go to Kennedy for nominating me! Thanks for your comments! GoblinBot3 (talk)

Freddy, Battleman, etc.

Go here for more information. He's a persistent troublemaker who likes to insert his unsupported edits about boxing, the poisoning of Stalin and Alexander the Great, and other things. He's been banned numerous times here.

I know he's the banned user for a few reasons: he's been harassing me for two years and so I'm familiar with his style, he makes the same edits here and over at English Wiki, his horrible spelling and grammar, his labeling of any attempts to clean up his work as "vandalism", etc. If you want to explore this user's troubled history, I'll be free to help you do so.

Plus, as I mentioned in my Olympic Auditorium edit, he wants to use other wikis to prove his point. They aren't reliable sources. So even if he wasn't banned his edit is unsupported.MKil (talk) 16:55, 5 February 2009 (UTC)MKilReply

Hello, boxrec THE BOXING ENCYCLOPEDIA IS THE MECCA OF BOXING, yet, mkil wants to prove how great he is, it is virtually impossible to argue with him nor is it possible, he has been banned before. http://www.boxrec.com/media/index.php/Olympic_Auditorium
Also, stalin, if you go under history, you will read link from ny times on warfarin poisoning, evidence was provided, mkil deleted khrushchev and stalin's burial, in 1961 stalin was moved from Lenin's mausuleum behind Kremlin's wall (destalinization). Alexander great, poisoned with strychnine in wine, is another theory, all these things are given and they are readily available all over internet, these theories have been around for centuries, yet Mkil WILL NEVER, NEVER read source or listen to a reason!
http://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nikita_Khrushchev&diff=1336477&oldid=1336258 why revert facts? It's called khrushchev's thaw http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=khrushchev+moved+stalin%27s+body+in+1961&aq=f&oq=
Unfortunately being logical with mkil is an absolute impossibility. The principles that guide reasoning within a given field or situation he will never comprehand. Always puts blame on others! — Preceding unsigned comment added by errorswhat (talkcontribs)
The above speaks for itself. Please review the edits made by Freddy and his sockpuppets as well as the anonymous IPs on the Stalin, Khruschev, and other pages. His style is, to put it kindly, unique and easy identified. He's been banned her and yet returns again and again to make edits, call me psycho, say I'm part of the mafia, etc.MKil (talk) 17:34, 5 February 2009 (UTC)MKilReply
Being banned has nothing to do with this conversation, mkil did not refute given facts about oympiic stadium capacity, he is simply shifting the blame on others, and if i made some spelling mistakes, my keyboard has problems. Yes, please review freddy's edits and fine contributions made to John Paul II, creation of many articles, yet that is not the point, the point is evidence was given on the above articles yet mr. king of vandals mkil kept on reverting, it's clear he has personal vandetta against some people, no matter how right you are, he will revert things and shift the blame on other insane subjects. — Preceding unsigned comment added by errorswhat (talkcontribs)
Well, i have to go to work (unlike mkil), if you want to unblock freddy who should not have been banned in first place ok, if not ok as well, if you want to revert mkil's olympic version, be my guest, i tried to fix things, i appreciate your neutrality, it's never been around on wikipedias!

Mkil has administratorship help, so also proves nothing is fair here! But what goes up, crashes down hard, last laugh is mine!

Unblock

Thanx for your neutrality, but lowlife administrator blocked my ip's, i am writing from work, will only reply to you via method i told you. You can unblock me, in return you get a lot back, my knowledge is deep. I cant write from work, just got promoted to manager. I am not allowed, but mkil problem is 3 years old, mkil is a very cold individual.. love your neighbour, I tried, he will even demand proof people need to breath oxygen to live, go figure. Check jp2 page, it was nominated for excellence, improved by Fredy, example how others should look like, mkil's talk page, check marciano decision, i was right yet again! If u want good edits, fine, if not, fine, showd wikipedia's ignorance! Im not wasting time with hypocrites!

I'd rather not use email for things such as this, as other editors can clarify points if I make a mistake. I'm confused: is there anything you wish me to do? MC8 (talk) 19:34, 6 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Sure, i cant type here and have no intention replying when I have free time, just for this, as explained why, just get in touch directly, some things are private. The things we need to correct we can discuss over here. You have to understand my frustration with some people here who are totally cold n indifferent!
Conspiracy section ? Cool, for every article of a politician!
Well... removing info on Stalin's burial is barbarism, 1961 date it was moved it's not conspiracy, well known fact thats everywhere!

http://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nikita_Khrushchev&diff=1337697&oldid=1337695 all correct no need to revert!

Once you get suspended (AND I WAS NOT SUSPENDED FOR CONTENT BUT FOR PRIVATE DISPUTE WITH CERTAIN PATHETIC ADMINISTRATOR) it's a given form unfortunately on wikipedia, edits get reverted no matter how good, but this way wikipedia is only hurting itself, well, i will look for your reply (here & as explained) by friday!
I am not an administrator (yet!), so I cannot unblock you. If you would like to help Wikipedia get better, please have a look at this page. MC8 (talk) 08:19, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Unfortunately way too many people have special agendas,created their own stupid rules, well u know what to do, some of the users, like below are in agreement with others so they look bad, therefore they get more votes and overvote the ones they hate, but everything has its limits and ends... Some create policies, evil people will find ways1, as they will neever admit to mistakees!

Rollback

Hi, MC, I have responded to your concern on WP:ANI, however I'd suggest that we continue the discussion here or on my talk page if you want to so as to not clutter up ANI. Take care, and let me know if you need any further explanation :-) fr33kman t - c 19:55, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hello Microchip08. You now have global JavaScript as you requested (see discussion and edit log). However, I'm no longer running the bot for user description or talk pages, unless you first create an account on all Wikimedia wikis where the bot will run (see the instructions on that page).
