| :Bbb23, if I might be so bold as to offer some constructive criticism, is not particularly helpful as a response, perhaps next time point people to the right place as well as saying their first point is the wrong place? I also find somewhat rude, considering at that point from what I can tell you'd still not pointed them to the right place. It's just a thought that might have avoided threats and raised tempers this time around. It's possibly also worth mentioning that the historical ] and ] ''both'' point to ] as the place to go - if we're on a cleanup pass it might be worth dealing with those too, again so we can try and avoid this situation in the future? | |||
| :While what's done is done, and another experienced editor has been pushed to a wikibreak, can we at least figure out where the right place is, considering {{ping|Ivanvector}} and {{ping|Drmies}}'s suggestion of ] doesn't ''really'' fit either, considering most administrators don't hold the checkuser bit? Or just screw the bureaucracy of what is or isn't the right place for something that doesn't quite fit anywhere, and just try to deal with the issue? | |||

| Hello. AFAIK ''Najafalibhayo'' and ''Akbaralighazi'' are two separate cases and should '''not''' be merged. ''Akbar'' is connected to, or more likely ''is'', ], and ''Najaf'' didn't enter the scene until after ], the latest editor who undoubtedly is ''Rehmat Aziz Chitrali'', was blocked, i.e. the cases from May of this year. The socks after that, including ], ] and the latest batch of socks, are ''Najaf'' though, who for one reason or other is going after ''Rehmat Aziz Chitrali'', i.e. the real life person, on multiple language versions of WP, possibly because of some kind of local rivalry, since both live in the same general area and both have an interest in the Khowar language.

| Hi Bbb23, I saw you indeffed ], not without a reason. However, given that he has made thousands of valuable contributions, I think you could have been less harsh on him - esp. that blocks are supposed to be preventive rather than punitive. For a long-term contributor who just once ventured out to prohibited area, I feel a shorter block would be sufficient to prevent reocurrence. Won't it? — ] ] 01:09, 14 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
| :In my opinion ] might be considered after a year. But his socking wasted the time of a lot of editors and admins. Even Faizan himself is no angel: just checking his last page of contributions shows a 3RR violation on April 30 at ] that may have gone unnoticed at the time. ] (]) 01:23, 14 May 2017 (UTC) | |||

They also have filed under StayCalmOnTrees. I provided a ton of behavioral evidence but there didn't seem to be an appetite for it. After those were all closed, another admin mentioned that the account should be re-evaluated. Since you were the most recently involved with the StayCalmOnTrees SPI with the block of User:Beyond the Bond, I was hoping you would take another look. I have even more evidence (pages on a Word doc actually) to tie them together. You can see your revert of Beyond the Bond on ] for their edit on the 15th, Sunuraju editing on the 8th and 9th, and then your revert of another StayCalmOnTrees sock (Opnicarter) from the 5th which shows these socks are targeting the same pages. They also just moved ] to the mainspace, a draft that was originally started by another SOCK of StayCalmOnTrees that they are connected with through other editing.

And they're just one of the many sockfarms active promoting just this channel. This is far more persistent than can be explained by there being a lot of fans of Pakistani TV.

Talking about Quebec
look @Bbb23, some people speaks English in Quebec, sometimes, I don't speak French, I only speak English BigStoneonWiki (talk) 09:02, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- The issue, User:BigStoneonWiki isn't that some Quebeckers only speak English (I certainly know many - including the current Governor General of Canada, Mary Simon). It's what the official language is. Many Americans know Spanish, but it certainly isn't an official language. Though it is complicated that because Canada does have French as an official language (but sadly not Inuktitut), then federal services must be fully available in English throughout Quebec. Either way, I think this is a content dispute and best discussed at Talk:Quebec (though I can assure you that the status quo would be the end of result, so my advice is just to leave it as the discussion would be futile - see Talk:Quebec/Archive 6#Official language (fair compromise) and also the following discussion).

StayCalmOnTrees
I see you just blocked a SOCK of this farm and was hoping for some assistance. This user had two SPIs filed against them but it is clear they are not using the same IPs (I noted when filing that a CU would not likely find technical evidence since they are part of the StayCalmOnTrees sock farm). They also have two SPI cases filed under StayCalmOnTrees. I provided a ton of behavioral evidence but there didn't seem to be an appetite for it. After those were all closed, another admin mentioned at ANI that the account should be re-evaluated. Since you were the most recently involved with the StayCalmOnTrees SPI with the block of User:Beyond the Bond, I was hoping you would take another look. I have even more evidence (pages on a Word doc actually) to tie them together. You can see your revert of Beyond the Bond on List of Pakistani television series for their edit on the 15th, Sunuraju editing on the 8th and 9th, and then your revert of another StayCalmOnTrees sock (Opnicarter) from the 5th which shows these socks are targeting the same pages. They also just moved Tan Man Neel o Neel to the mainspace, a draft that was originally started by another SOCK of StayCalmOnTrees that they are connected with through other editing. If I am overthinking this, let me know but it seems clear to me that they are UPE and part of this farm. CNMall41 (talk) 19:21, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

Why else would anyone be so persistent and go to the lengths that Nauman335/SCOT has gone to just to write about this one particular TV channel's shows, with sourcing as weak as it always is, blocked as many times and their articles deleted as many times as they have been, if they didn't have a financial incentive to keep trying? And they're just one of the many sockfarms active promoting just this channel. This is far more persistent than can be explained by there being a lot of fans of Pakistani TV. If COIN hasn't investigated this, that's a failing on our part. But that being said, Sunuraju has not come up in any of the checks that I've done recently.

Operaatio Arktis
Please can you send me the draft text from the Operaatio Arktis page that was deleted yesterday? I would like to edit and add to it before reposting Thisredrock (talk) 12:12, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- I'm willing to move it to draft space if that's what you mean. Let me know.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:00, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Yes that would be great, thank you. And apologies if I've not followed correct procedure here, I'm still learning Thisredrock (talk) 12:18, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- Here it is: Draft:Operaatio Arktis. You should use WP:AFC to develop it into an article. Good luck.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:54, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Sherzod Abduvaitov
Hi there! Thank you for reporting this user. He has created dozens of accounts and just will not stop. See uz:Vikipediya:Administratorlar forumi#Abduvaitov_Sherzod for our local discussion. And this list is huge! Despite repeated warnings to stop creating new accounts, he has continued to do so. Local blocks have proven ineffective in addressing this issue. Is there any way to prevent this individual from creating new accounts? Nataev 18:56, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Sometimes there are ways, edit filters and IP blocks, but I can't help you with that.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:58, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
Clarify about declining speedy deletion
with due respect, I would like to know the reason of declining G11 to my recent tags. I had put those tags after careful reading the article and gone through references. Plz clarify the reason so that i can improve in future. Thank you 🙏 Rahmatula786 (talk) 17:05, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- If you're going to ask me about why I removed a tag from an article, please mention the article, which is Universal Engineering & Science College. The references have nothing to do with WP:G11. What matters is the language, and although it's a poorly written, poorly sourced article, the language is not unduly promotional.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:10, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- Got it. Thank you. That means if article looks promotional by language does it qualify for speedy deletion? I mean promotional language alone is sufficient ? Can we apply this tag if we know it’s obvious that written by someone closely connected. I hope you will clarify and help me understand it in much better way. Thanks Rahmatula786 (talk) 17:44, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- If you think an article is being written by someone "closely connected", that doesn't mean it qualifies for G11. G11 applies, as I said, when the language of the article is promotional. However, how promotion it must be before tagging for G11 is a judgment call. It depends on how much of the language is promotional compared to the overall size of the article and how intense the promotion is. I'm not sure that you have sufficient experience to make that determination.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:49, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

If you could please permanently block my account that would be great.
You guys are now attacking me because I reported what I thought wrong, now I know they have very specific criterias for what is vandalism, and that they don't remove peoples talk messages even if they are vandalism. I saw I was in the wrong and I said this on the thing, I'm not an expert on Misplaced Pages, and now I know better thanks to you guys. The only other thing I did was correct someone who was saying he didn't edit a closed AfD, which I discovered he did I told him this. Now I also know that is not a big deal either. But now you guys are insulting me. "SubhanAllah" means "Oh how perfect is God" or "All glory is due to God", and as Muslims we say this when we are surprised or shocked or something bad happens. I don't see the issue with saying this, or maybe there's a rule against that too. I also already said I didn't edit for months because I have other things to do. I just edit here sometimes if I want to correct something or fix something. If one of you guys could please permanently block my account that would be great, since you guys want to come after me now, and I don't want to be an editor here anymore. I don't have time to be here all the time you get me TopVat19sEver (talk) 17:08, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- If you don't want to edit Misplaced Pages anymmore, just stop editing.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:11, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
