Re. Dragon Skin body armor

Hello and thank you for contacting me. Unfortunately, I usually don't get involved in disputes regarding articles where I lack expertise. My suggestion is create a section on the article's talk page about the disputed edits or disruptive behavior by other users. If they refuse to talk about it then it's legitimate to warn them (use the "Not adhering to NPOV" templates that you will find here) and have them blocked if they still persist in making unilateral, disputed changes without discussing them. Just warn and revert, and report if they keep inserting their changes after receiving a set of warnings. I hope this helps. Regards,--Hús ö nd 19:13, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please brief me on the user and with what sort of edits is he disrupting the article? I'll have a closer look.--Hús ö nd 20:15, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I still can't find enough proof that a particular user is disrupting the article with POV. I've protected the article due to edit war anyway. It would be convenient if some editors agree on the talk page that a specific user is being disruptive. That would certainly help counter disruption after the article is unprotected.--Hús ö nd 23:11, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:PlaneShift (video game)

Why the hell do I have my own personal attack section on that talk page? Oh well, I have removed it. Everything you said EvanCarroll did first (pay attention to where the URL goes) and he has voice on the #peragro channel on Freenode. I would be inclined to believe the other way around. And no I do not have a conflict of interest. I just play the game, and I asked on irc:https://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia back in June if playing a game implies that you have a conflict of interest, and the consensus was that I do not.

Fair use rationale for File:Watson Jeopardy.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Watson Jeopardy.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Armbrust ^{WrestleMania XXVII} _{Undertaker 19–0} 15:05, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Elder Sign

Because you don't add citation, you just add external link. L-Zwei (talk) 17:35, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just make proper citation instead of simply lazily linking outside. Don't you see those Notes and References section? L-Zwei (talk) 17:05, 14 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Right, I'm lazy-ass who aren't very friendly. But consider that one who add it made half-ass edit by simply link outside (which may even violate WP:SPAM) instead of made proper citation, I don't see why I should put any more effort. Look, if you want to re-add it then made proper citation, else just leave it. Whatever, I won't do it to you. L-Zwei (talk) 10:30, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Kansas City

I would suggest putting it up on the talk page. Give it a week or so. If there isn't any discussion, then just do it. You could also propose a move here. I fixed 800 disambiguation links to the page so this is a pretty major change. --User:Woohookitty ^{Disamming fool!} 04:31, 23 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That last comment made me laugh hard. Hey. At least you know. :-D In the end, I don't have any problem with the change really. I just get concerned when massive changes like that are made without direct discussion.

Proposed deletion of The Johnny Dare Morning Show

The article The Johnny Dare Morning Show has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non notable radio show. References are all primary sources.

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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Non-free rationale for File:Watson Jeopardy.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Watson Jeopardy.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Watson Jeopardy.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Watson Jeopardy.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 20:40, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kracht Castle Island, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Junction City (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Notice of discretionary sanctions

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding , a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Edit war warning

Your recent editing history at Places of power and Energy (esotericism) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You've dropped two "admin action" warnings on my talk page in very short succession.

That is what you have been edit warring in two different articles to retain. The problem that needs fixing is your bad choice of refs - this is what both nikkimaria and i have been telling you, and you are not hearing it. I won't respond again here. If you want to discuss something at an article talk page, that would be that. Jytdog (talk) 07:12, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No, I was pushing back in place of power to retain the wiki references to things like Charmed which I haven't had a chance to dig out the relevant episode or how to format the citation. Actually, I didn't even look at which citations got scooped up in someone else's edit [1], who was hammering away at source quality, and you promptly reverted out of hand.

Sacred time moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Sacred time, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

Cochranites

Hi Darker Dreams, according to MOS:DABBLUE, disambiguation page entries should have one blue link to the most relevant article. That is how I edited Cochranites. I moved Cochranianism to the See also section because that is where similar titles are typically listed (MOS:DABSEEALSO). Leschnei (talk) 13:59, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I moved all of the bluelinks to entry starts to standardize them, removed the extra blue link without pushing the main link into a redirect, and restored your fix to a mainpage link caught up the previous redirect. My reading of MOS:DABSEEALSO looks like all three entries would technically fall under the See Also criteria. Darker Dreams (talk) 04:39, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Astrology Sun Dates

I have added cited data for the start dates of signs Aries and Taurus for the years 2000 to 2029. You will notice that they change. The full current dates for this year are 2023 Mar 20 21:24 Aries and 2023 Apr 20 08:14 Taurus. Next year's dates are 2024 Mar 20 03:06 Aries 2024 Apr 19 14:00 Taurus. Notice that these dates differ from your last edit. But of course these are Universal Time dates. Depending on your location the local times may be up to 13 hour later or 12 hours earlier. However the table says "Approximate dates" so it doesn't matter that you put in incorrect data. Anyone who actually wants to use this table would always use an ephemeris. Only an idiot would use a fixed table for data that is inherently changeable.

I will leave to your conscience whether you want to leave incorrect figures in a table that you edited. OrewaTel (talk) 02:57, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into Sacredness. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 02:05, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring at Witchcraft (disambiguation)

Your recent editing history at Witchcraft (disambiguation) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Your contributed article, Witchcraft (diabolic)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Witchcraft (diabolic). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Witchcraft. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Witchcraft. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Iskandar323 (talk) 09:03, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Finding a home for your content

Hi, I think you're going about this all wrong (i.e. lots of new pages), but your intentions and your content are good. I've actually just taken all of the material that you placed at Witchcraft (traditional) and split it between Cunning folk, which is where the discussion of European folk healers/mystic individuals belongs, and Witch (word), which is where the evolution of the label of "witch" is best explained. Iskandar323 (talk) 07:53, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Darker Dreams, we also don't need this: Template:Witchcraft sidebar. As I said on that talk page, you've lumped together cunning people and traditional knowledge with witches, who those societies define as those who harm their own communities. It duplicates templates we already have. 00:28, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

You are edit-warring

I realize you are very attached to the Neopagan redefinition of "witch" as someone who heals, and the debunked witch-cult theory. You claim you are not here to right great wrongs but your edit history shows otherwise:

Darker Dreams (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

I know this is hard for you to hear, as you have cast me as an enemy, but I know many people who believe as you do. I have a great deal of compassion for this view. BUT, I am asking you to have compassion for the Indigenous, African, Irish and Scottish cultures for whose traditional people "witch" and "witchcraft" is the opposite of the healers and healing metaphysical work. I'm sorry if you are unfamiliar with these communities, but they/we don't usually trust people who call themselves witches, both because of the "harming their own communities" meaning, but also because American and UK Neopagans are known to culturally appropriate from these very cultures. It's an issue that is very much under the banner of "contemporary witchcraft" and is a huge reason why "contemporary witchcraft" is not synonymous with "neopagan witchcraft". Please, try to understand this as a global, and not just white people, issue. I have raised this multiple times now and you, and a few other editors, are blatantly ignoring it. This, to me, is the major systemic bias issue. Which is why I re-added the systemic bias flag, which you reverted, along with returning a wholly inappropriate link to Indigenous traditional knowledge which is not "witchcraft.[2] Why did you remove it? - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 23:47, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I know this is hard for you to hear, as you have cast me as an enemy - including repeatedly accusing me of bad faith in various styles and forums; I have provided, repeatedly, sources that demonstrate that "witch" has been applied to a number of categories of individuals. There is significant complexity to this issue because of several redefinitions of the term "witch," including being applied by colonialists and anthropologists based on specific white, anglo-European, colonial, Enlightenment and post-Enlightenment frameworks that sought to map a broad range of experiences and belief systems into their contemporary European experience - even when that was glaringly inappropriate.

Now, we are not supposed to be discussing these issues outside the mediation process at Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard#Witchcraft. Darker Dreams (talk) 23:57, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not pinging you here to discuss article content. This is behavioural. You are edit-warring with multiple people, as is evident in your contribs. I'll add diffs, but I think you are aware of what you are doing. - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 00:42, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

August 2023

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Witchcraft (traditional). Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Calling edits made in good faith, "vandalism" is a personal attack. You've now done this twice, to two different editors, simply because you disagree with the content. [3][4]

Your edits include the blanking of sources and return of off-topic links, and you are once again edit-warring - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 21:14, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit-warring again / Tendentious editing

Waiting a bit and then hitting "undo" again is just continuing the edit war you have been warned about above, along with misleading and incivil edit summaries and blanking of sourced content that you simply don't like.[5] This is disruptive and WP:TENDENTIOUS. As has been explained, you are inserting misleading links. You don't have consensus to use Indigenous definitions for witchcraft as "traditional knowledge." We have consensus, that you have agreed to, that Indigenous cultures do not agree with your redefinition of "witchcraft" as positive magic. Stop edit warring. Your accusing others of WP:OWNy behaviour is projection. It's what you are doing. - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 17:29, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Witchcraft (traditional). This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 19:09, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 19:54, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing Witchcraft (traditional) for a period of one week for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Daniel Case (talk) 20:25, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Darker Dreams (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I created this page and, following its WP:AFD nomination User:CorbieVreccan immediately blanked it[6], has repeatedly made false claims regarding sources in edit statements[7][8][9][10], and elsewhere, sought to redefine the article to match definitions already covered at other pages[11], and done this all in coordination with at least one other user[12] who they have defended as "normal editing" even when the stated purpose of edits was to "undermine the whole premise of this article"[13].

I agree there is a PoV push, tendacious editing, and attempts at ownership in the entire cluster of Witchcraft articles; but it's the doing of a rogue admin who repeatedly claims consensus when no such thing is present[14][15], believes they (and those they agree with) are above the rules they wish to apply to others, and shows a willingness to weaponize systems against other editors to intimidate them.[16] - Darker Dreams (talk) 00:40, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Unblock requests containing personal attacks are not considered. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 01:15, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

@Jpgordon: please clarify which portion of this is considered a personal attack? I do not believe that I said anything substantially different than was said about me in the request resulting in my block.[17] - Darker Dreams (talk) 01:26, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Darker Dreams. To answer the question: rogue admin, believes they... are above the rules, and willingness to weaponize systems against other editors to intimidate them are all statements that seem to fall into the sphere of "personal attacks".

In general, admins won't consider unblock requests where the blocked user talks about another editor's objectionable conduct. No matter how defensible your own actions might feel, people will expect you to commit to not undertaking similar actions in the future.

I'm here because I saw your request at WP:RFAR. Wikipedia will never have balanced articles on witchcraft and magic and related topics. It is built on and bound to a completely different way of knowing, one which has historically deliberately marginalised and vilified women's natural knowledge traditions. I know a lot of witches. This just isn't the right website for this. Sorry to have to frame this with such finality, but I thought it might be kinder if you heard it from someone who understands both sides.

Witchcraft as shamanism

As I'm sure you know, there are many sources which equate witchcraft in Europe with shamanism throughout the rest of the world. When shamanism is suppressed, it is nearly always called "witchcraft" in the process. Many of the "examples" of the suppression of witchcraft as malevolent originally in the Asia section were about one or another form of shamanism, but the editor who added the material simply cherry-picked the opposition without providing any background about the tradition being suppressed. I've compiled a fairly large list of sources that support this view here. It is neither a minority, fringe, or "neopagan" view. In fact, if it is not now the majority view, it is certainly the second of the prevailing theories. Skyerise (talk) 11:25, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

RfD Schwarzes Meer

Hi Darker Dreams!

In the discussion at the RfD linked above (now closed as "keep"), you suggested to add link to relevant map(s) in redirect talk page to provide future context. What exactly did you have in mind? As mentioned at the RfD, there are lots of maps that may be relevant. I gave links to about a dozen there (with potential to expand that list to 100+). Do you find it necessary to link them all? Maybe it is best to just point to the RfD, and briefly explain the reasons for keeping? Renerpho (talk) 00:21, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Renerpho: I'm not suggesting that you (or anyone) needs to go hunt down all the relevant maps, but if you've already got between a dozen and 100+ that's a swath of identification someone else doesn't have to do if they decide to fix it. Identified maps should be getting collected somewhere or it's never going to get on anyone's radar as a real project or just going to be more annoying when it does. Thinking about it, a category may be better because it'd be easier to find/manage than a list on a talk page - then just link from the redirect talk page to the RfD and category. I don't know if this makes sense. - Darker Dreams (talk) 00:37, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
