:Hi there. Please don't take the deletion personally, it is not meant to be a comment on your ability as a writer. I deleted the article as it has already been previously deleted as a result of ]. The article you created has a different title but it's about the same subject. The content of the article you created does nothing to demonstrate that the concerns raised in the original deletion discussion have been addressed, as evidenced by the references, which are almost all to inappropriate, self-published sources. ] ]⁄] 20:04, 21 February 2013 (UTC) | |||
Okay, thanks. I'm afraid Felix Kjellberg is a complicated source to find references on, as he's Swedish and hasn't done interviews with English/American newspapers or telegraphs. The best I was able to find was an ] article. I had talked this over with another user and he said that it was "probably reliable (not 100%)", but I can't manage to find any other links. I included the links to his YouTube channel as it includes the date he joined and has videos relating to the text in the article. Is there any possible chance we could fix this article and bring it back? Thank you. ] (]) 12:15, 22 February 2013 (UTC) | |||
== Sockmaster at it again == | |||
Hi Basalisk. As the admin who took action on ], I thought I would bring it to your attention that this guy is back with new accounts and IP's, still editing disruptively and completely ignoring all efforts at communication. You can add ], ], ] and ] to the list of socks/known IP's (), though as I've said before, I think these are probably just the tip of the iceberg. I thought I might expedite things by bringing the matter directly to you, but if you'd just as soon I resubmit the case on SPI, I'm more than happy to oblige -- just let me know. I'm already thinking about returning the issue to ANI, as I'm beginning to wonder if protection for the page might be in order, though I've been trying to avoid it, since the nature of the article means that IP involvement in filling in details is ''usually'' quite helpful and welcome and in any event I'm not sure it will stop this guy since he'll just register a new account. I'm just about out of ideas on how to stop this obnoxiousness, frankly. I've dealt with some persistently disruptive users before, but this one is a bit outside my experience. What is the usual course of action with a sockmaster with unending IPs like this? Protect the page and then whack'a mole the socks? No better option? Well, in any account, thank you for any action you can take or advice you can provide on the matter. ] (]) 06:17, 23 February 2013 (UTC) | |||

I neither like nor respect you, Basalisk. So knowing that, you should also know that snide comments from you to my attention, won't be perceived kindly, and will in fact be perceived the way you intend them to be perceived, as trying to get into verbal fisticuffs with me and stir up trouble. So if you could just pretend I don't exist and go on your merry way and leave me alone for the rest of my life, it would surely be appreciated. Because I don't want anything to do with you, for that long. ] (]) 10:48, 6 March 2013 (UTC) p.s. You contribute to the divide between content contributors, and Admins. (Happy about that? Please don't answer.) | |||

Administrators' newsletter – December 2024

Interface administrator changes
- Following an RFC, the policy on restoration of adminship has been updated. All former administrators may now only regain the tools following a request at the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard within 5 years of their most recent admin action. Previously this applied only to administrators deysopped for inactivity.
- Following a request for comment, a new speedy deletion criterion, T5, has been enacted. This applies to template subpages that are no longer used.
- Technical volunteers can now register for the 2025 Wikimedia Hackathon, which will take place in Istanbul, Turkey. Application for travel and accommodation scholarships is open from November 12 to December 10, 2024.
- The arbitration case Yasuke (formerly titled Backlash to diversity and inclusion) has been closed.
- An arbitration case titled Palestine-Israel articles 5 has been opened. Evidence submissions in this case will close on 14 December.
