User:jakandsig

Hey,

Just dropping a line because you gave this user a 48 hour block for edit warring earlier this month. I am sure you have not kept up with his activities since, but he has continued to push disruptive edits across wikipedia while launching personal attacks against multiple editors. As a result, I believe I will be launching an RFC/U regarding him in the next few days. I am not asking you to do any heavy lifting, but I was hoping you might be open to endorsing the RFC once I get everything in order. Indrian (talk) 01:25, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

I see that edit warring and personal attacks are indeed occurring. I also see that you're edit warring as well. Beware the WP:BOOMERANG. Toddst1 (talk) 14:07, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
I know that you do not edit video game articles so you are not going to be up to speed on the issues, but Jakandsig is pushing bad edits through POV pushing and adding incorrect information, misrepresenting sources, removing sourced material with no attempt to discredit the sources, generally refusing to discuss controversial edits on the talk page, and launching personal attacks on every editor that disagrees with him. I and a number of other editors have been protecting the integrity of those articles from one rogue user, which is not edit warring. None of the other video game project editors I have discussed this issue with consider anyone but Jakandsig to be in the wrong here. Indrian (talk) 15:10, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Eh?

Why does it say to me "Your edit on has been reverted by Toddst1."? TDFan2006 (talk) 14:27, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

I've deleted User:Bonusballs. Toddst1 (talk) 16:02, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, I left it as a redirect to his page because it was vandalised by a sock related to this guy. TDFan2006 (talk) 19:45, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
I figured that out. At first blush, I couldn't understand why you would mess with someone's user page and reverted. Then on further examination, I realized that it was a hostile creation, so I deleted it. Your actions seemed completely reasonable. Toddst1 (talk) 20:25, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
Thanks! =) TDFan2006 (talk) 08:51, 31 January 2014 (UTC)

ANI

Please see WP:ANI#Review of block and admin authority. Johnuniq (talk) 09:52, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

I've unblocked Aprock. That was a silly, heavy handed block with very little justification. Please consider trying to talk to well-meaning editors in future if you disagree with how they source content. Using your admin tools in this way is only going to upset people and alienate them, it does very little to project Misplaced Pages articles from abuse. --Errant 10:46, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
