IPBE RfC v2

As you commented on WP:IBE RfC Grant exemptions to users in good standing on request, you may wish to also comment on my alternative proposal, WP:IBE RfC Automatically grant IPBE to users by proof of work alone . Sai ¿?✍ 11:38, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Spamming?

diff. We can't have people challenging the support !votes ... --Dirk Beetstra 12:42, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

For what it is worth, I am also interested who is behind Special:Contributions/188.215.27.91 ('reference') and Special:Contributions/194.228.32.241 (and a couple more IPs performing these actions). --Dirk Beetstra 12:56, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

@Beetstra: If they move my challanges, I'm going to undo citing WP:TPO and warn them directly that if they do it again I'm going directly to AN. My bullshit tollerance threshold is already gone today. Hasteur (talk) 13:20, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

If yours stay, I am going to move mine back next week as well (oh the joy, my weekend starts now). Maybe I will even do it now.

The noindexer is active, but now discussing (yes, I really think it is Rotlink, and if Rotlink is not the owner, it may not be Rotlink but the owner). --Dirk Beetstra 13:25, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

@Beetstra: What I would do is copy your objections to suporters back to their original locations and collapse the portion that CFCF has put below. You get the "Revert" and at the same time not commit a WP:TPO violation yourself. I am a hairs breadth from filing a RFPP Semi (to the end of the RFC on the main and talk pages for this since the IP hopper can't stay put (and I would note that IP hopping was a symptom of the RotlinkBot/Archive.is botswarm). Hasteur (talk) 13:29, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

I am pretty sure it is him. Gaming the system. --Dirk Beetstra 13:34, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Please be advised that this does not violate WP:TPO — the vote section is simply intended for votes — as explained in the background section. The Oppose-section should similarly be parsed out to a new discussion section, but I will not do this because Beetstra chose to vote twice in different comments. It isn't about not allowing challenging comments, but about keeping discussion at one place so that we don't scare away new editors. Carl Fredik 💌 📧 18:41, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Please show exactly what part of TPO it violates, because you're stragith out of line. Hope you like ANI drama because you did it again. I've marked it as Vandalism and will now proceed to ANI. Hasteur (talk) 18:48, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

There is an explicit instruction on how to comment, and I merely proceeded as per WP:TPO: Off-topic posts — moving them to a section where they were better suited. There is nothing to be gained in the RfC by simultaneously discussing things in 3-4 different places! Carl Fredik 💌 📧 18:52, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

In response to the HasteurBot on Draft:Granatanine concern. I think there exist encyclopedic notability

I created the 2 draft-pages, on Granatane (User:RIT RAJARSHI/Granatane) and Granatanine (Draft:Granatanine). ( Originally I attempted to create the pages because I did not knew how-to request an article) .

Though the created-draft-pages failed at review (because I could provide so-little informations). But still, I think, there is encyclopedic notability of these 2 topics. Because... the terms, Granatane and Granatanine, are often-used in the field of Alkaloids (Some alkaloids, allied to tropane, such as pseudopelletierine contains them in backbone), natural-products organic-chemistry, drug-action, Ligand-receptor interaction ( such as Sigma-2_receptor#Ligands ) etc.

But when I started search web on the main, backbone compound (and nomenclatural origin) compounds 9-azabicyclononane (Granatanine) , and 9-methyl-9-azabicyclononan-3-amine (Granatane), I could not found useful informations throughout web ( so I tried to request the article and attempted to create the drafts).

I'm frightened to re-submit the article because I have very little information. But these topics should be further reviewed , so-that experts who know more about these 2 topics, could contribute, and the future will be benefited.

• The issue has been discussed also on Misplaced Pages:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk#11:01:10.2C_17_June_2016_review_of_submission_by_RIT_RAJARSHI.

Thanks.

G13 question

Could I draw your attention to Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Help_with_clearing_out_G13_nominations?

In addition to this editor, there are some other editors who "help" out by nominating G13s, and often do it wrong. If you are comfortable that the bot is keeping up with the backlog, I'd like to put together a nicely worded note for these editors to suggest that they should not nominate G13s, as that will be taken care of.

I have noticed some nominations by your bot, but most have been by human editors. One possibility is that the bot is not nominating many because of the throttling, and if human editors stopped, the bot would do them all. However, it occurred to me that if the creation of G13 eligible is exceeding the throttle limit, then maybe humans are nominating because they see the backlog growing. Is it proper for me to look at Category:G13 eligible AfC submissions and conclude that the backlog is quite reasonable, and therefore we should discourage human editors from nominating at all?--S Philbrick(Talk) 15:42, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

Talkback

Please see my comments on the draft for Leader-1. I am happy to help, if I can. CaroleHenson (talk) 03:04, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

CaroleHenson That was an incredibly less than brilliant action... How are editors supposed to get content that has been in mainspace for several years (and the "See main article XXX"). I strongly suggest you UNDO that action immediately and let the Merge discussion take place. Hasteur (talk) 23:19, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Thought I'd post a thought here rather than Talk:Pantheon-Assas University

I just thought I'd leave a small explanatory note of my personal position regarding Launebee's use of "libel". I am under the strong impression that Launebee's native tongue is French and not English. As somebody who speaks more than one language myself I'm aware that certain words when translated from one language to another also undergo some change in meaning (or perception of meaning). A good example of a language dispute I came across was involving the French use of the word competent. The tl;dr version of it is that competent in French has a wider meaning than in English. Case in point, the Ministere Public has "competence" in dealing with terrorism. In this case what was meant was "is responsible for" rather than "has the skills to deal with". I don't speak French so can't comment on how the word for "libel" is perceived by the French. That said, you're pointing Launebee in the right direction regarding stopping their use of the word "libel". I assume any further incursion will result in you pursuing an NLT block. I may have held a mis-impression regarding your initial warning about "libel" and admit that I thought you were coming down stronger than necessary. I am, however, noting that Launebee does have a tendency to use inflammatory language in disputes and perhaps your stern warning will discourage them from pursuing it further. Thanks for your comments. Long explanatory note I'm afraid. Cheers, Mr rnddude (talk) 13:39, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
