I discovered this morning that this ANI had been unexpectedly closed. Reading through it again, I see that at no time did you identify yourself as an admin - as far as I knew you were just another contributor to the discussion - and at no time did you state that you planned to close the discussion imminently, nor did you make clear that you were waiting for for me to respond. Of course I didn't respond - how would I know I needed to? Colonies Chris ( talk) 09:59, 10 December 2017 (UTC)

...the thread at ANI has nothing to do with infoboxes, but everything to do with a known antagonist flirting within the boundaries of WP:CLOSE, which is disruptive. Still, never let a small matter like "the truth" get in the way of stirring the pot. Cassianto Talk 21:46, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
I noticed your entry here and am curious "about their sending to AfD a page they had merged content from, and how you don't do that". Could you elaborate please?

BR, could you look into semi-protection for Boeing 737 MAX for a few days? A dynamic IP has been edit warring against consensus. Although they are using the talk page, their idea of "discussion" is to justify their reverts and then revert again, along with some juvenile parroting of Marc's comments/advice.

hello, iam a new user in Wikipedia i want to created an about an new show the show will aired from ZEE TV show name : Aapke Aa Jaane Se please sir invited me on Teahouse because i want to create this thank You.
Is there a way to instead of completely protecting the MTA site to semi protect because the Edit war was with an unknown user without a talk page. Other registered users have had a problem with it. So can you, being an admin, revert it back to my version. Olsen24 ( talk) 23:24, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
Some of those disputes to my knowledge have been resolved with the use of user talk pages, which this being an ip, doesn't have a user talk page to utilize. with that being said, other users have reverted this edit as well as me, just not as much and as rapidly. Also some of the stuff i was reverting was outright false and needed to be removed and/or changed. Olsen24 ( talk) 23:31, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

As you will have seen from looking at the page history before making the move, there is no consensus for the title you have chosen. Please revert yourself. If you still want to make a move then propose it in the proper way and seek to gain consensus. DuncanHill ( talk) 22:55, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
Thank you for responding (the admin Incidents talk page is now blocked to me as well so I can't discuss there), this is the first time anyone responded to what I said. Everything you said is correct, but you have a few of the facts wrong on this case.
On another note content is indeed deleted and deleted by different people, but each time it is because of specific reasons that don't have to do with the encyclopedic content or completeness of the article. When this happens on articles i help with (we are down to 3 articles) i do my best to correct if it can be corrected (if someone has not already done it already). For instance someone will delete something for a lack of citation, so I will find a good one if it exists, often times a proper citation will be found existing in the article as some changes orphen lines of text. These people often edit hundreds of articles a day looking for a common theme or policy, because of the breadth of there changes they don't have time to do a good job and fix things, instead they just delete.
In over 10 years I have only gotten involved in 3 edit wars. One was in the beginning when i was learning, but 2 have been in the last 3 months, and I am less active than ever. Later it was found that the second one was a sock puppet for a known vandal who had me reported to the Incidents board. The other was this one, where i started my editing with every courtesy, following every policy and ended up being abused mischaracterized or ignored at every turn (except by Red Rock Canyon who changed his mind after me informing him and built the consensus). I probably will give up editing soon. Hopefully someone can take over these articles.
One last note. If you notice how often Guy brings people onto the Incidents page one might think that his approach might be just a little off. We can only judge people by what they do. 2602:304:415C:56C9:9114:F9E0:AF84:43F5 ( talk) 19:49, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
Is this article supposed to be deleted from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Free Congress Foundation? It still exists? - — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nikolaiho ( talk • contribs) 03:30, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
Hello
I have a complaint about someone I believe I need to talk to you about it first, as the acting admin.
Please allow me to refresh your memory first. In WP:ANI, one François Robere committed the act of casting aspersions (revision 816027144), by leveling inappropriate canvassing accusations, with his evidence being just another person who had cast the same aspersions and got blocked for it! Your reaction was that he should apologize. (Revision 816045217.) He seemingly did. (Revision 816151631.) And yet, 4 hours later, he is repeating the same, via the phrase "partners in crime". ( revision 816187327.)
I am not unfamiliar with such aspersions. Back in 2014, a User: Matthiaspaul accused me of having engaged in meatpuppetry in a discussion in which I was not even present. That, however, doesn't mean these aspersions are not dangerous or don't hurt. I've even written a satirical piece of this recently-widespread phenomenon.
My question is: What must I do about it? I can't go to ANI, becaue ANI itself is involved. Or can I?
Best regards,

Hi Bushranger! I've been a user for coming on two years now, but I had never had a DYK nomination be pushed for one of my pages. I just wanted to say thanks for that nomination on Chad Finchum as well as for protecting Mike Senica, statistically the performance just isn't there and getting parked for being too slow is in no way "impressive". It's nice to have a fearless protector of the NASCAR community who will stand up to IP vandals! (P. S. If you haven't read Senica's Racing Reference comments it's a great pendulum from hate to love and back...) So yeah, just wanted to tell you that you're great. Willsome429 ( talk) 02:56, 30 December 2017 (UTC)
Hello Admin, The Bushranger;
Thanks a lot for your help Sir and for informing me that when a new page is created with many accurate data lacking we should fix it rather than asking for page deletion. I took your advice sir in the Talk Page and started putting information with every reliable source.
Then Suddenly the creator (User:Sarah Canbel) stopped and at same time right after the Talk Page discussion (User:Swazzo) started reverting every single edit with no respect to discussion made then posted on my wall an 'Edit War threat' though he was the one systematically removing sourced information since 3 days, not me. Whenever i add a source and information, he kept removing them, as if editing is not allowed and one of his edits said that page should be like User:SarahCanbel edits only?.
Also on the page of Belly dance when i then put the historical name of Egyptian Dance in the page, sourcing it with a very reliable source as the Independent [1] he kept removing the source and name. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia where everything should be accurate, the name is literally used as a Dancing Course in endless schools worldwide, students go and register for Egyptian Belly Dance.
Thank You again and your advises will be much appreciated. Marina Towadros ( talk) 19:49, 30 December 2017 (UTC)

Hallo, Thanks for your help with Historical Model Railway Society. Although they include the 1950 in their logo their "History" section is pretty feeble and doesn't offer any details, so it's great to find someone who has book sources. Yesterday was one of those editing sessions which started when husband commented that he'd got "C. Hamilton Ellis"'s book listed under "H" not "E" in his list of "railway books to perhaps buy some day" (at which I sneaked a look before ordering that one for Christmas for him, from AbeBooks), though the cover said plain "Hamilton Ellis". It became clear that the hyphenated name at which the article was created was wrong, and I moved the article and added umpteen redirects from variations. I found his obituary in The Times (after a shorter death notice which produced a nickname), which mentioned the HMRS - so I created a redlink for it ... and couldn't resist digging around to find enough info to turn it blue. Thus another afternoon goes down the sink of Wikipedia editing - fun, though! Wishing you a Happy New Year, and a year of interesting editing. Pam D 10:26, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Meant to get over and leave a note about changing the protection. I've worked that one for years, initially at SPI, plus a couple more than get hit from the same crew.
