User:Davey2010 made a mistake (in my view)

The main reason that i mention this, is so that he does not revert my new post (at Simple Talk), by 'whim et cetera'.

He has claimed "harassment" of other user.

The last thread, was actually an attempt at mentoring-of-sorts, but only one-line/sentence at a time.--Note: i have no intention of 'mentoring any articles' that are not ready to stay published in mainspace.--If that offer of mentoring, was not good enough, then i will not stop anyone from making a different offer on their own behalf (while i am busy fixing other articles). 2001:2020:347:A2A3:5C3E:DCB6:28C3:24A1 (talk) 04:08, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

@Davey2010: courtesy ping. -- Auntof6 (talk) 08:54, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for the ping, Indeed I told the IP to stop harassing another user which imho is what's happening now, As I said in the message; the IP has repeated their point in the ANI thread, RFD nomination, various talkpages and now that users talkpage,

What I can't fathom out is why this IP desperately wants 179 blocked and why all of 179s creations must either be deleted or redirected, I've repeatedly said "179s articles are not perfect and need work doing to them" but I don't see how deleting them or redirecting them is in any way beneficial to the project ?,

Also going off on a tangent for a minute - the IP has made comments such as "Note: i am busy fixing a few articles (but not about cars)"[1] and "that is not my cup of tea"[2] .... so if they have no interested in cars or fixing car articles why all the drama?,

Are 179s articles really that problematic and I'm just not seeing the severity of the situation here ?, Again I've always agreed their articles are poor and need work doing to them but again imho they're not delete-worthy (which surely is evidenced by the fact an admin had qd-declined one of their articles[3]?),

That all being said If an admin believes my harassment message was wrong or that the IP should be allowed to continue beating the same drum then sure I'll step back, There's helping someone and then there's creating block threads on them, spamming 8-15 article talkpages with the same message, repeating the message in the RFD and then more or less repeating the same message on their talkpage. (179 has stated here they're taking a break so I don't understand why 2001 can't just fix the articles or failing that ask at WP:Simple talk?), But like I said maybe I'm the problem here and I'm just not seeing it..... –Davey2010^Talk 10:36, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

look davey2010 i think the reason why he is doing this was due to the now deleted VinFast article that has copied content from en wiki and due to this he now thinks the other articles all have copied content from en wiki so i think this the reason and as you saw at simple talk he tries everything he could to delete/redirect the articles (also i agree with you that the car articles are not perfect but they can be fixed) even though as you explained a admin had qd declined one of their articles anyways good luck with your contribuitions best regards. 179.109.143.167 (talk) 23:30, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

Well it could be a plethora of reasons but coming here everyday playing "Guess the reason" won't achieve much and it doesn't help improve and build the encyclopedia for our readers which is the main reason why we're all here.

The IP has since stopped so I don't see a reason to continue this.

If 2001 has a problem with the articles they can either fix them or go to WP:Simple Talk and seek help there. This will be my final reply on the matter. Happy editing, Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 00:22, 26 February 2025 (UTC)

"desperately wants 179 blocked ... 10:36, 25 February"? There has been a single suggestion, using the phrase "Suggestion:". (That suggestion was turned down, immediately, and user activities started abating, as in the rate of clueless articles, diminished rapidly)--Also, to me, it looks like the article-creator (or the person using A.I. text-generating program), is clueless, regarding English.--In addition, it looks like there are two voices: The second "voice" is a stand-in for use on talk-pages.--A question: do some users stay away from controversial user's articles, even when they have been stubified? Yeah, some (or many) might.--None of these "non-nuked" articles, are likely to get any free work out of me.--The way forward? No one can be bothered with working for free on most of this group of messy articles (with seemingly no input from humans) - however, if censoring of talk-pages (and blanking thereof), is left alone, then someone will come along and take articles to AfD. Thereafter articles will get Delete, or have someone take pity over an individual article.--There is a fair chance, that i will be on the talk-pages of some (or most) of the relevant article talk-pages.--C. everything has been said at Simple Talk, and in this thread. 2001:2020:347:C6D3:483E:5BF6:D8EE:B0C5 (talk) 03:18, 2 March 2025 (UTC) /original poster

Rapta999 and WP:OWN

Rapta999 (talk · contribs) is trying to WP:OWN on Operation Kurojaro (2025) and I'm looking for some admin help. The article is sourced to a churnalism / press release from a militant group, has a fair amount of unsourced and not exactly neutral text plus references to an unrelated attack just shoved in. Remove unsourced commanders [4], they get added back.[5]. Add tags because of the state of the article [6], they're removed.[7] They're comment on my talk page makes it clear they aren't likely to change Stop deleting pages its my page.[8] This is contentious topic on en wiki and clearly there's some spillover here happening (see this RFCU for example). I've only left a couple of notes on their page plus a rather unhelpful discussion on my talk page, but I think bringing this here early is needed. Ravensfire (talk) 17:38, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

This is continuing again today, please look at the history at Operation_Kurojaro_(2025). Example edit summaries from Rapta999 - "ITS NOT YOUR PAGE STOP MODIFIED, You just want my page to be deleted when it breaks 0 rules", "STOP CHANGING I DON'T WANT MY PAGE TO BE DELETED ONCE AGAIN". This needs admin intervention. Ravensfire (talk) 18:18, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

At this point, Rapta999 and Adelaideslement8723 are both past WP:3RR on the page. I'm not bothering to edit this or Dersim Ambush (2007), another Rapta999 page with the same problems, until this gets resolved as Rapta999 shows zero interest in collaborating, following our principles or listening to anything being told to them. Ravensfire (talk) 18:27, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Rapta999 is now removing RFD tags from "their" article. Ravensfire (talk) 18:37, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Note, Rapta999 has been indefinitely blocked on en wiki for the same type of disruptive edits they are making here. Ravensfire (talk) 18:44, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

The same thing happened on en wiki Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#unexplained removal of tags. and without heeding any warning they continue to make their disruptive edits. Finally this user was blocked from en wiki, I hope he/she will be blocked from here too. Kajmer05 (talk) 18:49, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Just noting for the record Rapta has now created Servet6363 and is removing the RFD template from the article, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 18:54, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

@Ravensfire @Davey2010 I am sorry for the change war, I know to have reported it in the first place. But I was getting a bit too frustrated with Rapta, like I should not have. I know I should keep my mouth shut but again I am very sorry and it won't happen again. - Adelaide 𝓐𝓭𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓲𝓭𝓮 ^{(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴 ♡ 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓫𝓼)} 20:33, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Always remember that there are admkns to help with stuff like this. Try to talk with the other editor, even when its tough, leave warnings and if there isn't any changes in the behavior of the other editor, escalate here or VIP. Ravensfire (talk) 20:39, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Okay, I will remember that next time. Thanks and have a good day! :) 𝓐𝓭𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓲𝓭𝓮 ^{(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴 ♡ 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓫𝓼)} 20:42, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Adelaideslement8723, You're good, I was reverting them too until I realised the page was going to be deleted either way lol,

Honestly though you're fine, Personally I wouldn't of warned you as although edit warring is a forbidden thing and all that - you were simply reinstating tags that were being removed without any actual reason given, If you had tagged it with an invalid reason then I could understand but with words like "military engagement", "launched a coordinated assault" and "was part of a broader guerrilla offensive against" then yeah the {{complex}} tag is correct, and the {{primary sources}} tag is also correct because literally as of writing this there is only one source there ..... so yeah I personally don't think you should have been warned and to be honest I don't believe in this specific case you were edit warring either, imho no apology necessary –Davey2010^Talk 21:11, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Yeah, I think the warning was a bit much you know? But I have learned my lesson and it won't happen again, next time I will just report the change war and don't get more involved in it any further. Because if continued it would lead me and Rapta being blocked for change war/breaking the 3RR. But I have stopped my actions and just let an admin handle Rapta (and his apparent socks). Okay enough of that, TL;DR... Thanks and have a great rest of your night! :) 𝓐𝓭𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓲𝓭𝓮 ^{(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴 ♡ 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓫𝓼)} 04:05, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

So here's the thing, if I'm going to warn one side of a revert-war, I have to warn the other as well. It denies either side the option of saying only they are being blamed. I found early on that doing that only made me way less likely to edit-war in something like this and how to better use the tools available to good-faith editors to get more eyes on the situation and get admins involved. I've gotten 3RR warnings as well, and sometimes it's that fingersnap that I need to get out of a reactive mode and shift to being proactive. Ravensfire (talk) 04:09, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

That actually meaks sense... Thanks for the advice! :) 𝓐𝓭𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓲𝓭𝓮 ^{(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴 ♡ 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓫𝓼)} 04:12, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

Catching up here, is administrator action still required? Tagging @Adelaideslement8723 @Davey2010 Griff (talk) 02:21, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

@Griffinofwales at this point, all good. All known socks seem to be blocked, the relevant articles protected and hopefully some extra eyes for new POV articles from this sock farm. Appreciate all the admins for their help here. Ravensfire (talk) 05:36, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Hey @Griffinofwales, Nope all good now as Rapta, his sock account and his IPs have all been blocked, and Operation Kurojaro and Denshim have now both been protected :), Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 11:14, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

@Griffinofwales I think we are all good here now, Rapta and his socks have all been blocked and the pages Davey mentioned are protected now. 𝓐𝓭𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓲𝓭𝓮 ^{(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴 ♡ 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓫𝓼)} 13:36, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection request

Please semi-protect both Operation Kurojaro (2025) and Dersim Ambush (2007). With the two named editors blocked, now it's an IP editor removing the same tags and RFD notices. Ravensfire (talk) 22:09, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Non-English-language text category

Would it be a good idea to replace all entries in Category:Articles containing non-English-language text with {{Non-English-language text category}}? That's how they're being created recently, but before they were created using a different template. On enwiki they all use {{Non-English-language text category}}. If so, can an admin do this using AWB? 71.202.215.54 (talk) 21:12, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

That way the categories will be hidden too. 71.202.215.54 (talk) 21:59, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Category move request

Please move Category:Organizations in New York City to Category:Organizations based in New York City, because most of the entries are not limited to New York City. That will also match enwiki. 71.202.215.54 (talk) 21:35, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

User:SyedTayyab560/sandbox

On the 9th Feb, I copypasted Toula Gordillo to their sandbox as the page was up for deletion,

On the 10th Feb, Unbeknown to me they created a new account and the same article at a different name.

On the 2 March, I G6 QD'd their sandbox as no one has edited it and I felt it just serves as a backup article that they can copypaste to different names,

The QD was declined on the basis that "unable to find records that Syed was evading a block at the time of the page's creation"

I wanted to seek opinions on whether the QD decline was correct. Whilst I agree they weren't socking before the creation.... they were socking after and they created the article 2 more times at 2 different locations .... so I don't see why we should honor this sock by keeping this as like I say it just serves as a backup?,

Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 12:05, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

I don't see how keeping the page would be "honouring" the sock. If that is the case then we should probably delete User:MidAtlanticBaby's userspace as their even more blocked.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 17:59, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Also P.S @Davey2010 since I was the admin that declined the QD I probably should've been notified when this topic was made.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 18:01, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

@FusionSub, But MABs userpage was created as a blank page, it's not a sandbox that can be used to spam this project again and again?, If MAB had a sandbox I'd be advocating to delete that too,

My sincere apologies I thought I had pinged you, I had rewritten this message after I wrote it out and somehow forgot to reinclude your name back so my sincere apologies for this, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 18:20, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

With MAB I was more going for the userspace and not just their user page. As for Syed most vandals like them already have a local copy instead of simply copying it from another (presumably more hidden) userspace page. While I won't argue if another admin sees it deletion-worthy but I simply see no point in deleting the page.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 18:36, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Oh no sorry I knew that they'd have a local copy offline, I just don't see any point in keeping something that will never be edited again and has never been edited since creation ?, in my head given that they're now a sock (appreciate they wasn't at the time of creation) and given it's never been edited and never will be to me there's more of a reason to delete, How does this (advertisement) sandbox and its content benefit Wikipedia ?, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 11:36, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

Twinkle RfD issue

I don't know who updates Twinkle or how the code is stored, but I'd like to suggest a change to the RfD creation module. When subsequent RfD's are started for the same article in the same year, they will be created with a qualifier such as "(2nd nomination)". This leads to a mistaken link to the article (e.g. Special:PermanentLink/10112022). It's a minor issue and doesn't come up often, but could the code be altered to only use the name of the article in the {{lc}} template? Thanks. 2601:644:8184:F2F0:EC14:CDB2:47A4:BF12 (talk) 05:32, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

I can look into this, but I am on holiday. Do you have the code that needs to be changed already identified? Griff (talk) 02:24, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Maybe it's not worth it, but actually I think editing Template:RfD/Preload/Template would be better. 2607:F140:6000:806A:D93F:AB9F:C9C9:B308 (talk) 04:10, 8 March 2025 (UTC)

Not really seeing anything revdel-worthy.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 11:50, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

I think IP inserting offensive language into Sandbox. 🌙 Raayaan9911 Ramadan Kareem! 19:07, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Raayaan9911, The language isn't bad enough that it needs to be revision deleted and it's only in the Sandbox not in an article.

Also the IP may well be saying it in a way that they dislike the thing they're talking about ?, Maybe it went wrong for them and they no longer want to put things in holes, Hope this helps –Davey2010^Talk 19:24, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your help, i appreciate you! 🌙 Raayaan9911 Ramadan Kareem! 19:34, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Protection request

Hello, can this page be protected? Rawandiz Revolt There are too many sock attacks and disruptive edits. Kajmer05 (talk) 22:06, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

2603:9000:8200:34::/64

It seems that the range Special:Contributions/2603:9000:8200:34::/64 keeps making articles related to children's TV shows without context, usually just consisting of lists with no explanation of what they're about. Unfortunately I can't tell if they have made any pages that have been deleted before. However, I do see that "Elmo's World Birthday Party Marathon" says "recreated". Because it's an IPv6, the individual IP address keeps changing, so I don't know how one would leave appropriate warnings for them. Can an admin please make a decision on this? 2607:F140:6000:8038:F8AE:4783:30B2:16C3 (talk) 23:52, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

Please note: these edits are ongoing. They are creating pages like "Arthur Read (Remake)". 136.152.209.82 (talk) 22:29, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

IP address revdel

A revdel request has been made at Special:PermanentLink/10129566. Please revdel the relevant edit and the request, which exposes the user's privacy for the same reason. 2601:644:8184:F2F0:E042:12DE:3646:F0D6 (talk) 19:55, 12 March 2025 (UTC)

'Short list' for ghost sources

When a new round of Lake Como spam, arrives (in the future), then it might be wise to back-track for ghost sources/ghost references.--This article, can be added, for 'reasons of intuition'.--No further action be admins yet, AFAIK.--If this post is looked at in a positive light, then fine. 2001:2020:345:F2D9:D1E7:60E7:75B6:5D5B (talk) 22:48, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
Note: generally speaking, if a user gets globally blocked, then anyone should add to some (or all) relevant talk-pages: "someone thinks that the article should be checked for ghost references et cetera". In my opionion. 2001:2020:345:F2D9:18AB:C080:A7DA:3C0C (talk) 23:01, 13 March 2025 (UTC) /original poster
