Arb report?[edit]

Yo, Jorge, we're nearly an hour away from publication deadline and there's no sign of an Arbitration Report. Are you still planning on writing this? If you can't make it in a given week we can work around that but I really, really need to know in advance (start of the weekend) in future. Cheers, Skomorokh 20:44, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm so sorry! I will next time. jorgenev (t|c|s) 07:30, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Are we okay for this week? Skomorokh 14:32, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Signpost: 28 November 2011[edit]

A tag has been placed on Category:Oregon State University residence halls requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for four days or more and it is not presently under discussion at Categories for discussion, or at disambiguation categories.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Philosopher Let us reason together. 22:46, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

RFA thanks[edit]

Thank you for your support and comment at my recent successful RFA. Being now the new fellow in the fraternity of administrators, I will do my best to live up to the confidence shown in me by others, will move slowly and carefully when using the mop, will seek input from others before any action of which I might be unsure, and will try not to break anything beyond repair. I do not feel adminship is authority, but is rather a responsibility and trust accompanied by a few extra buttons. Best, Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 17:23, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Try not to edit war with bots next time. It's futile. They're bots. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 07:43, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am glad I am giving you an opportunity for the consumption of popcorn! And, while what you say is somewhat true, it is false when you say the pernicious rigidity of software cannot be overcome. In the situation where SDPatrolBot impedes progress, it only does so for 15-20 seconds, and the upside of that is a valuable opportunity to feed the beast. jorgenev (t|c|s) 08:13, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
(I didn't know you've been doing this before.) That's pretty dumb. TY for the article anyway, looks like a good one. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 10:40, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Trolling, etc, and block[edit]

I do not even attempt to try to fathom the working of your mind, but this was blatant trolling. This refers to an earlier occasion, when I gave you a token 24 hour block because you had been persistently edit warring to remove speedy deletion tags from articles you had created yourself. You had done this on a number of articles, over a period of over a month, and had been warned repeatedly. You then proceeded to make unblock requests in which you indicated that you fully intended to do the same again, and described doing so as "just great sport". Three different administrators looked at your unblock requests, and explained to you that what you had been doing was unacceptable. One of them said that, on the basis of what you said in one of your unblock requests, the block length might well be increased. Another one described comments you made relating to the block as a "personal attack". You have now done exactly what you said you would do, which is edit war again to repeatedly remove a speedy deletion tag from an article you created. You did that, following (1) numerous warnings about doing so, (2) a short block, together with what was intended to be a friendly warning that doing so again would be likely to lead to a longer block, (3) the sort of comments from administrators I have just referred to (visible here). Naturally you will have been aware that this was likely to lead to a longer block, as you had been told. I am at a loss as to why you prefer that route to the much simpler and more straightforward one of explaining on the article's talk page why you think the article should not be deleted. Perhaps you enjoy the feeling that you are RIGHT and someone else is WRONG so much that it makes up for the inconvenience of being blocked. Perhps there is some other reason. However, you do not stop there: you add to all that the trolling post to my talk page that I linked to above.

As I have said, the block you underwent the last time was for 24 hours. If this were just a question of removing speedy deletion tags from an article you had created, I might this time block for 3 days or so. However, the combination of your announcement that you intended to do so again, together with other remarks (both on this page and in edit summaries) indicating that you fully intended to be contemptuous both of Wikipedia's procedure and of anyone who attempted to enforce such procedures, and finally your talk page trolling, combine to convince me that such a short block would be insufficient. I have therefore blocked you for two weeks.

I have spent the time and effort in writing the above explanation, rather than just a one sentence block notification, not to inform you (you already know the background) but to clarify the background for any other administrator if you should decide to post an unblock request. However, a word of advice: if you do make an unblock request, I suggest making one that has some chance of success. Similar ones to what you posted last time may well be regarded as time wasting.

The article Birch Hill Cemetery has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Does not meet WP:GNG

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
