Articles by Knuand

Hi Tony!

I've just reviewed 19 articles by Knuand but they appear to be blocked for copyright violations. As you're the blocking administrator, I thought I'd leave a message here regarding the issues in their articles as they can't do anything about it.

I checked all of them for copyvios considering Knuand's block and Anders Thorén was the only one. Of the ones I haven't sent to PROD, do you think an AfD is worth starting on the ones tagged with {{notability}}?

Many thanks,

AE / how to atone for calling out misbehavior of a player?

I just read your comment at AE where I have not been allowed to participate for 750+ days. Your comment seems quite pertinent to an appeal in my own case. I was blocked for asking AE admins to consider that Sagecandor / Cirt's extensive number of prosecutions at AE were a problem in a case that they brought with false accusations (they accused Tlroche of forgery in diff #4 of that case, which was quite clearly false). I asked the sanctioning admin to reconsider , or at least to explain what I did wrong. They have not. I wonder if you might see it in your heart to advise me as to how I should best proceed to remove the only remaining sanction on me from the Cirt/Sagecandor (or any) episode.

Everything you need to look into the case is linked from the permalink to the sanctioning administrator's talk page above. Pinging @Volunteer Marek: since they were involved in the original sanction request against me.

This is more in regards to SashiRolls' comments here. The relevant policies are WP:ASPERSIONS and WP:BATTLEGROUND. There's no reason for them to show up here and based on some flimsy excuse use this as a forum to attack another editor whom they happen to dislike. Volunteer Marek (talk) 18:49, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for helping me to understand what, perhaps wrongly, seems to be a very clear double standard. Should I appeal, to restore my first class citizen status, or should I just "suck it up" as an Arkansas politician used to say? Do you think that T. Canens response to my question has been sufficient? SashiRolls 16:52, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Timotheus Canens’s point that sanctions can be valid even if the sanctioned person is right is definitely true. I think my point on the VM appeal was more of “well, if he brought this to AE himself with the links he provided after Sandstein sanctioned him, we would be having a very different discussion.”As for your case, if Tim doesn’t want to remove it, I’d suggest following the standard appeals. I’m not overly familiar with it beyond the broad strokes, so don’t feel comfortable commenting one way or another on it. I think if you can demonstrate it’s no longer needed, it’d likely be lifted, but that’d be up to reviewing admins. TonyBallioni (talk) 17:07, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Yes, I suppose they could have been valid in an alternate reality. :) SashiRolls 18:15, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Curiosity

This interesting stuff seems to be related with clerkship at SPI. But, I don't recall coming across any such training sample earlier! New methods, eh?! ∯WBG 19:18, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

I’m stealing from Katie’s training of Sir Sputnik who stole from Bbb’s training of GAB. We normally delete them afterwards, which is why you likely haven’t seen them :) The bit about looking at permalinks of old cases is my innovation, but on the whole, the questions are exactly what others have been asked in the past. TonyBallioni (talk) 19:36, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

That explains it:-) ∯WBG 16:56, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – March 2019

News and updates for administrators from the past month (February 2019).

Administrator changes Evad37 There'sNoTime Alex Shih • Brian • Mushroom • Nakon • Oscarthecat • PeruvianLlama • Ragib • Reaper Eternal • Rossami • Tom Interface administrator changes Evad37 • Galobtter Ritchie333

CheckUser changes There'sNoTime Keegan • Ks0stm Oversight changes There'sNoTime Ks0stm • Sphilbrick

Guideline and policy news

• The RfC on administrator activity requirements failed to reach consensus for any proposal.
• Following discussions at the Bureaucrats' noticeboard and Misplaced Pages talk:Administrators, an earlier change to the restoration of adminship policy was reverted. If requested, bureaucrats will not restore administrator permissions removed due to inactivity if there have been five years without a logged administrator action; this "five year rule" does not apply to permissions removed voluntarily.

Technical news

• A new tool is available to help determine if a given IP is an open proxy/VPN/webhost/compromised host.

Arbitration

• The Arbitration Committee announced two new OTRS queues. Both are meant solely for cases involving private information; other cases will continue to be handled at the appropriate venues (e.g., WP:COIN or WP:SPI).
  • paid-en-wpwikipedia.org has been set up to receive private evidence related to abusive paid editing.
  • checkuser-en-wpwikipedia.org has been set up to receive private requests for CheckUser. For instance, requests for IP block exemption for anonymous proxy editing should now be sent to this address instead of the functionaries-en list.

Miscellaneous

• Following the 2019 Steward Elections, the following editors have been appointed as stewards: Base, Einsbor, Jon Kolbert, Schniggendiller, and Wim b.

FYI

You're on (Redacted). Thought you should know. Pokerplayer513 (talk) 03:41, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

🙄. Yeah, let them know I also wrote WP:BLOCKNAZIS and got opposed by one person at CUOS2018 because they thought I’d go on an anti-Nazi CU fishing trip after I blocked someone for being a Holocaust denier. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:45, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Kooks and cranks and crazies need places to congregate, after all. Cullen Let's discuss it 03:47, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

TonyBallioni, considering you wrote NONAZIS, I found this quote while looking at an archive, and was wondering how to proceed, this was written by someone with an ideological bent and it's obviously not a NAZI but it's venturing into Holocaust denial, and I don't think it should be something we tolerate here, in any event here is the quote: ""I think the Holocaust deaths may have very well been exaggerated by some. And, I’m not interested in excluding deaths that were clearly aggravated by forced labor, lack of medical care, and starvation, or even relocation. (I hear Trump claiming that Puerto Rican deaths after the hurricane was over somehow don’t count.) But, it’s still in the millions. Does it make it OK if it was 75% as many? Just say “substantially fewer deaths”."" Thanks, Sir Joseph 04:08, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

I think any concerns should be addressed to the Arbitration Committee in private. TonyBallioni (talk) 04:12, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Even if the edit was "ages" ago? I'd have to check but it was certainly over months ago. Sir Joseph 04:21, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Oh, I misread you. Sorry about that. If the user does anything similar again, report them to ANI and show the diffs as a trend. I’m certainly of the belief that virulent and genocidal anti-semites should be blocked on sight, and that Misplaced Pages has no place for neo-Nazism or any of its evil cousins. The community can handle that, but it needs to be substantiated. If you prefer, you can email me the diff and I’ll let you know what I think. TonyBallioni (talk) 04:36, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

OK, thanks, I sent you the DIFF for review and advice. Sir Joseph 04:51, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Sir Joseph, Unless; the above DIFF was redacted; I note that the above quote (or significant phrases of it) are not returned by a search query except over your t/p and here. ∯WBG 17:01, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

It's still there, not sure why the search doesn't work. I already emailed it to Tony. Sir Joseph 17:08, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) No comment on anything else, but @Sir Joseph: Tony didn't write WP:NONAZIS. He wrote part of it (the bit referred to above as WP:BLOCKNAZIS), but it seems inappropriate (and I'm sure he'd agree) to credit the page itself to him. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 14:16, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi there Tony. I've just sent you an email. NiciVampireHeart 05:55, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Definitely not because the list of the last fifty blocks goes back to...2009 then  ;) ——SerialNumber54129 16:23, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

UPE

I came to this when a user applied for NPR at PERM. I checked out their creations which seemed to have all the hallmarks of paid for articles. While at least one of them already was created or edited by a blocked sock, I came up with this. I don't have time to check further. Maybe there is something you can do. I did not grant the NPR right.
