Autoblock?

I saw the note you left on User talk:89.129.54.112. I didn't see the autoblock here. Is there somewhere else I should check in the future? Thanks! TNXMan 20:28, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

The initial unblock request was an autoblock-removal request; hence I assumed he'd been caught in an autoblock. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 20:58, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
Ah, I see. I only saw the standard unblock request. Strange that toolserver didn't pick up the autoblock. Thanks! TNXMan 21:26, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Request for refactoring

My first post to the EE mailing list arbcom was made on September 22: "I received a link to the web site containing the email list on Thursday [that is, September 17, 2009] and read some of them." [1] and went on to ask for evidence presentation guidelines. You wrote of me on Sep 23rd: " Given that his first post here was to ask for a copy of the archive..." [2] Your statement about my first post is inaccurate, and I ask that you refactor it. Novickas (talk) 15:43, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the refactor. Since you wonder where I came from - I was a party at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Piotrus and Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Eastern European disputes - many of the same people. I've not been as active since then, but I was taken aback by the appearance of what turned out to be members of the mailing list group at Talk:Battle of Vilnius (1655) and Talk:Tiškevičiai Palace, Palanga. They were, per the mailing list archive, recruited to support the proposed name changes. Not as serious as some of the other issues there, which is why I probably won't be participating further. Novickas (talk) 23:01, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

IP vandal

Hey Jeske, periodically I visit your fine establishment for really just one purpose: please check out the recent contributions of User:68.101.104.146, if you have a moment. I hadn't heard from the IP's band in a while, but they were back to perform on my user page fresh after a three-month block. Woohoo! Anyway, whatever you decide, thanks for your help! Drmies (talk) 18:23, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Reblocked for two quarters. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 19:55, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi, that thread might interest you, since it concerns an issue with respect to which you have taken action.  Sandstein  21:37, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Hello there. I noticed that you indefinitely fully protected this page in August. I was wondering if you think it would be all right to unprotect it now. Regards, NW (Talk) 22:55, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

I'd say so, given as one side's been banned for unrelated issues. Apologies for the delay, I had no 'Net access 'till a few hours ago. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 05:37, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Availablity,

Could I get your opinion on something?— dαlus Contribs 06:15, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

please leave me alone

with your previous comments of "slot off, fragface" and "chummer, shut the frag up", along with your other threats, i want to make it clear that i want you to stay away from me. ignore the urge to comment on me, and definitely stay away from my talk page. i am literally 100% freaked out by your language/aggression towards me. leave me the hell alone. do not respond to this. just rollback it or whatever. but leave me alone. if i do anything that requires admin intervention, i am sure one of the other thousands of admins will figure it out. you need to stay away from me because your behavior/obsession with me makes me extremely uncomfortable. i hope this request was polite/firm enough so that you understand and accept my request. Theserialcomma (talk) 10:13, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

And I am 100% disgusted with your behavior towards other users, myself included. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 19:52, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello, Jéské Couriano. You have new messages at Russavia's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Sorry!

Sorry about that!!! Looks like I had a brain fart... Would you like me to release the block on Vanisheduser5965 , or are you just planning to file the name change request? Just say the word. Hiberniantears (talk) 02:16, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

I've already filed it. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 02:19, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Thank you Jeremy for your help . I'm leaving soon and will scramble my password , I just want to make sure that my page isn't vandalized by other editors . You were the only one who was helpful in this sea of bullies and so I thank you again. Vanisheduser5965 (talk) 15:43, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:C. Jackson Grayson

It looks like Talk:C. Jackson Grayson was deleted in error. The article exists. -- Whpq (talk) 19:24, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

It was... Fixed now. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 19:29, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks! -- Whpq (talk) 19:35, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

Blocked User:Walaa_adel

Hi Jeremy, I've been asked by User:Walaa adel to contact you about you blocking her, I know she wasn't replying to your messages but this was because she's new to Wikipedia, I am her guide here...

we're originally from the Arabic Wikipedia, and we are working on a translations project using Google's new Translator's Toolkit, that is made to specially translate Wikipedia Articles... and in this process, we were copying the pages into our namespaces, so the translated output gets published automatically in our namespaces in our Wikipedia, where we finish the articles and revise them before publishing them to the main namespace...

so... the blocked user is one of our translators, and their part is mainly about using the toolkit, while the wikifying process comes back to us, as far as I know, copying the articles to our namespaces doesn't contract with the GFDL that all Wikimedia projects currently work under. specially that the User did NOT do any action that should be considered as vandalism, or attacking other users.. they just didn't reply to your messages. which isn't even enough to delete the page... aside from blocking him... please refer to WP:AGF

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me... and if you please unblock the user because they cannot continue their work.. Koraiem (talk) 11:53, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Um, en.wiki is also under CC-By-SA, which requires that the edit history be maintained; however, consensus is that translation efforts can be straight c&p moves, last I knew. I didn't block access to her talk page and had it watchlisted in case an explanation was forthcoming. I will unblock her and undelete every article I deleted. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 19:44, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
I've unblocked the user and undeleted every article copied. Send my apologies to her. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 19:52, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
Thank You! :).. of course all these copies will be deleted after we're done translating them.. and the original edit history in the original article will be intact... Thanks Again! Koraiem (talk) 22:15, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
No problem. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 22:23, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Got it .

Just email oversight-lATlists.wikimedia.org . I'm writing the request now. Thanks.Vanisheduser5965 (talk) 02:16, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Null perspiration, and good luck. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 02:20, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Smash Bros Brawl - this game is new and still being sold

That is reason alone not to have that article on the main page - it makes Wikipedia look like an advertisement site. Since the game is new, then the designers might even release expansion packs or whatever in the near future (which could change the content of the article). The article isn't even that well written either. It's obvious that a bunch of Nintendo fanbois just voted their favorite game onto the main page.--70.254.46.126 (talk) 08:11, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Bullshit. Brawl is over a year old; most games, Brawl included, don't have a sell life of past six months. Also, please note that we have had featured articles for several businesses and products, and Wikipedia was not seen as an ad agency for them. Why the hell is it different for a video game? -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 09:46, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
It's just comments like "This is a great game. Why shouldn't it be on the front page?" that irritate me. I guess it isn't my decision though. And as for 4chan being featured on the front page, I never even knew it was there and I wouldn't have voted for it. Cheers.--81.222.64.215 (talk) 05:04, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
Note that I did not have anything to do with the article's Featured Article push, and that "This is a great game" has no bearing on whether or not it's worthy for the front page; see WP:Featured article criteria. -Jeremy (v^_^v Tear him for his bad verses!) 05:26, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

I've asked at WP:ANI how best to deal with this one. Any ideas? Please reply there. Mjroots (talk) 10:20, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

To IPs

Chaotic Goods do not follow the direct or indirect orders of a Chaotic Evil person. Also, how can I be lawful if I'd sooner disrespect the law where it's a hindrance to the greater good? -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 03:57, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks :)

Response

Hi. I notice you reverted my edit to the Ip's talk page. I know I am not that editor but the user who removed the unblock request had no right to do that and I have warned them accordingly. Thank you.--122.57.91.165 (talk) 05:28, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Usually we simply remove unblock requests that are simply trolling, as that one was. He was in his rights to remove it. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 05:30, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
I understand that it was a sensless unblock request, but it should really be up to the admins to remove unblock requests.--122.57.91.165 (talk) 05:32, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
That user (Either way) is an admin. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 05:33, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Oh whoops. Well, he was an INVOLVED admin and there is evidence to suggest that he baited that IP into lashing outand getting himself/herself blocked which is not acceptable.--122.57.91.165 (talk) 05:34, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
I'm not sure how much help I would be, not knowing the situation there and dealing with Bugs Bunny-style threats here. Mayhaps bring it up at AN/I? -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 05:37, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
I don't think that would help at all. Hopefully my warning will be enough.--122.57.91.165 (talk) 05:38, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Good thing if it does. :D -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 05:38, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Your point?  Chzz  ►  07:56, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

oops

Ah, I didn't see the previous unprotection. Sorry about that. Ironically, that's the same thing I did to the vandal that decided to grace my talk page a few days ago. —Dark 05:29, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Actually, maybe not ironically. Grawp's idiotic minions have decided to harass someone else. —Dark 05:43, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Where? -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 05:44, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
I was referring to them losing interest in vandalising my talk page. —Dark 05:45, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Protect your page?

I know I won't be able to edit your page but at least it will stop your rush of vandals here.--122.57.91.165 (talk) 05:41, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Either (α) the 4chan thread feeding this will be off /b/ soon enough or (β) they'll lose interest and go annoy Scientology. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 05:42, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Best to wait for them to lose interest. /b/ is not known for their attention span or their intelligence. —Dark 05:45, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Please give me a link to the edit

Which edit are you referring to (please provide diff) THanks. Proofreader77 (talk) 06:09, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh I see ... we probably saw the same vandalism, and hit the button at the same time. Proofreader77 (talk) 06:11, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
PS: Note the timestamps on this diff (same time left/right) Proofreader77 (talk) 06:30, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

G'day Jeske :-)

Just pootling round the wiki and saw the really rather nasty threats on MB's page - I thought I'd pop in because I also noticed that you blocked the IP for one month - is that because the IP is likely to be dynamic, so longer would punish the wrong person? - I ask, because I would presume that generally you'd go 'forever' block when related to something like that... hope you're good regardless... and good on you for dealing with such genuinely horrible stuff..... Privatemusings (talk) 08:25, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

I wouldn't ask me about /b/tards at this point. I'm too busy laughing at them trying to brute-force in their edits thru the AF. :P -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 08:27, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
heh! - does the '/b' thing mean that this is sort of organised at 4chan? - I don't really know much about that subculture, but it's a weird one, for sure! also, AF == abuse filter, right? :-) Privatemusings (talk) 08:33, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Yes, and yes. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 08:34, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Accidental rollback

No worries - there are worse things that can happen. Ottava is even now viewing it as evidence that I am somehow 'suspicious' and am being investigated by someone (not sure who - personally I hope it's Mulder). Ah well, all part of life's rich tapestry, and I understand from the notes I see flying around that you are suffering worse on-Wiki problems at the moment. --Elen of the Roads (talk) 04:10, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

I wouldn't call it a "problem"; "substitute to reality TV", maybe, but "problem" no. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 09:23, 26 October 2009 (UTC)


Happy Jéské Couriano's Day!

(fluffy and happy horses*** removed by Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!)) For a userbox you can add to your userbox page, see User:Rlevse/Today/Happy Me Day! and my own userpage for a sample of how to use it.RlevseTalk 00:06, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Ehh, nein. I don't like the idea of a day dedicated to me, especially when I'm one of /b/'s most common targets. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 00:18, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

How was I supposed to know about WP:RFO?

I find your edit, removing my post to ANI about the problem at the Gosselin article a bit offensive. Not only do you post in all-caps (universally recognized as shouting in type), but you lecture me about a page I had no idea existed. A simple -- and polite -- note on my talkpage would have been nice. If I hadn't just checked back in the ANI history, I still wouldn't know about WP:RFO, and even your shouting would have been for naught. My thought was that -- what with the high traffic of administrators available at ANI -- that the oversight would come much quicker that way. Additionally, is the guy who boasted that he had taken a "screenshot" blocked yet? Has he been checkusered? If not, that should be done immediately. UA 23:30, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

Please hear me out. It is SOP to remove requests that would be best handled by Oversighters off AN/I specifically because of the nature of the edits Oversight works with (i.e. nonpersonal public information). In fact, the header at the top of AN/I specifically says, "DO NOT make such requests here; reports here are visible to everyone." (boldface and caps in original.)
As for CU'ing, unless you have any proof of wrongdoing by that account, the CUs are not going to run a check because CheckUser (the tool) is very invasive of privacy. i.e. Checkusers will not run a check on gut suspicion, hard evidence is needed. Also, it's worthless if that account's his only one or if he constantly hops IPs. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 04:36, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Marwat article

I believe you have protected the Marwat article because of an edit war between two members. One of them is banned, while the other one is inactive for the past month and half. It would be a good idea to remove the protection from the page so other Wikipedians can clean up the article or add/remove information. Thank you (Ketabtoon (talk) 14:12, 2 November 2009 (UTC))

If there's no evidence of LoW resuming there, I'll unprot. Going to check right now. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 20:32, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
Done and apologies for the protracted length of time. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 20:33, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Furry?

(userbox) Like a bear? lol. A8UDI 02:15, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

No... I tend to be more effeminate, which isn't a bear trait. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 02:45, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Your deletion of my messages to your talk page

You have three times reverted my messages to your talk page on an administrative matter, [3] [4] [5] and you then issued me a 3RR warning. [6] Is this consistent with administrative policy? I understand the desire for keeping discussions about a topic to a single place; however, that does not seem to me to be a rationale for removing talk page messages directed to an administrator which pose the administrator specific questions regarding the prosecution of administrative duties. I'm looking forward to resolving this with you rather than posting to an incidents noticeboard, which would seem to be the next step. Robert K S (talk) 22:01, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Users are permitted to remove messages from their talk page free from 3RR. Constantly reposting them is a form of harassment. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 00:05, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
Come on, this isn't a harassment issue. I was asking you questions pertinent to administrative actions, and you were covering them up. Robert K S (talk) 00:31, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
I was not covering them up, I was removing them because you were pursuing the same issue on TenPoundHammer's page. Now, I must respectfully ask you to stop posting to my talk page. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 01:45, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Chummer? :)

Cute word. Reminds me of my boarding school days. ;) Crafty (talk) 00:32, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

This ain't the first time someone's asked about my use of Shadowrun lingo... -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 01:12, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Ah! Not at all what I was thinking. Back in mah school-days "chummer" was usually preceded by "bum". More evidence that I'm just a dirty minded schoolboy. ;) As you were! Crafty (talk) 01:54, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Don't mind me...

Don't mind me... just fundraising. — Pretzels Hii! 21:10, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Slot off! :P -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 21:24, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Haha :) — Pretzels Hii! 22:04, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

An Arbitration case in which you commented has been opened, and is located here.

Laura DiDio

I've refactored my own comment for clarity. Might I ask that you do the same? I feel that there is an important distinction to be made as the original quote is not mine and your comment is open to mis-interpretation. I think the refactoring makes it moot anyhow but I wanted you to know my intentions were for the best in order to bring awareness to the situation at hand, and I believe the way it is presented now is probably the most optimal (unless you disagree?) JBsupreme (talk) 10:41, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

It is; gimme a sec and I'll tweak my response. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 10:45, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Disturbing...

Is there anything we can do regarding this disgusting edit? even legally? Thanks, Tom A8UDI 12:11, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Aside from block the user and report him to the cops in his area? Bupkus. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 12:15, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Baldfreak's unblock

Hi Jeremy, just wanted to drop you a note. When you were unblocking Baldfreak (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log), you apparently accidentally skipped the 'unblock the user' step and moved right along to 'check for autoblocks' step. ;)

I've unblocked them, so I hope that was actually what was intended on your part and I didn't misstep. Cheers. Syrthiss (talk) 15:24, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

I thought I had unblocked them. Ah, well; I'll be over to apologize. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 20:48, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Did you realize?

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


Calling someone "chummer," which you often do, is considered extremely rude by many. I have no idea if you intend to insult people discreetly, but it is unbecoming for an administrator to use a term with a common pejorative meeting. ("Chummer" is commonly a way to refer to someone as being homosexual in a derogatory fashion.) 75.100.83.178 (talk) 01:12, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Chummer means friend in the context I use it. Do your damn research before you blast me for using a term. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 03:59, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Yes, I'm aware it has alternative meanings. However, given the double entendre, it might be appropriate for you to stop using it, particularly given your penchant for sarcasm. It is far from apparent which meaning you intend. 75.100.83.178 (talk) 04:35, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Not if I've already explained it. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 05:14, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Are you joking? Do you honestly imagine users are familiar with your archived talk pages? In lieu of that, how many people are familiar with random words made up for a role-playing game? Given that in many real world communities this word is equivalent to calling someone a "fag," I'll again suggest that you refrain from using it. You are not playing Shadowrun when you are acting in the role of an administrator on Wikipedia. 75.100.83.178 (talk) 05:26, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Lighten up brother. I'm a fag and I don't find JC's use of the term "chummer" to be a problem. You're really getting this all out of proportion. Crafty (talk) 05:29, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
I do find its use offensive, which is why I brought this up on his talk page. I wonder if new users may feel attacked both by this word and his tendency towards sarcasm. Is leaving a comment on his talk page "getting this all out of proportion?" I don't think so. More generally, Jéské's use of Shadowspeak simply seems inappropriate to me in this forum. This is the English language Wikipedia after all. Cheers. 75.100.83.178 (talk) 05:37, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Shadowspeak isn't another language; it's English-language slang. I think you're making an issue just to make an issue. :| -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 08:57, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
WP:AGF. I am not "making an issue just to make an issue." I find the word offensive, as will other some other people who don't play your role-playing game and have no idea you are employing an obscure subdialect of English derived from a relatively unknown RPG. You are an admin and your actions are held to a higher standard. If a Wikipedia user civilly brings something to your attention, perhaps it would better not to simply dismiss me as a troublemaker. I gather from earlier comments that you are being harassed by 4chan users. I'm very sorry to hear this but I have no affiliation with them nor am I writing these comments for fun. I assumed you would be open to discussing this. If everyone here employed lexicons and unusual subdialects from their personal favorite obscure sources, communication would grind to a halt. All the more so if some of these words are offensive in mainstream English. 75.100.83.178 (talk) 17:54, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
I wouldn't call an RPG with four video game adaptations "relatively unknown". I'm permitted to use slang if I wish, especially if I've explained it (both early in my time here - see Archive 1 - and in #Chummer? :) above). In fact, I did not realize the term had any meaning in English until long after I started using it (which goes to show you how often I read Urban Dictionary). What do you want me to do, wikilink every single instance of the word? -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 18:32, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
I would have hoped for more civil and productive discourse with an administrator. Since you asked, what I would like you to do is stick to Standard English and not use jargon, surely unknown by the vast majority of contributors here, that derives from a game you play that has nothing to do with Wikipedia. I don't see this as an unreasonable expectation or request. 75.100.83.178 (talk) 20:48, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
(RI) Jargon is unknown by the rest of Wikipedia editors? isn't that kinda like saying moles fly? In any case, I'm not going to stop using "chummer"; you have not persuaded me against it. If you really want me to stop it, drop a line at ANI or somesuch. -Jeremy (v^_^v Stop... at a WHAMMY!!) 22:40, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
