Hello Bearian: An editor at the Max Weber wikipage appears to have been caught outright at sending a false/misrepresented report to Admin for edit warring protection (successfully), and has now been on an over-night edit rampage deleting and reverting consensus edits at over 40 wikipages. The incident started three weeks ago when he had strong POV issues on the Max Weber page and he has made no efforts to make a single constructive edit since then. Every effort, and courtesy upon courtesy, have been made to provide alternative rewrites for him, and now he is reverting consensus edits by reporting it as warring. Could you look at this? Now he is trying to block a Talk page report for Admin from being posted by making serial deletes on the Max Weber Talk page. Any attention would be appreciated as the consensus edits should be restored. (Ref. user b ink.)

P.s.:The disruptive editor has now posted a broad anti anon-IP-user message and picture of himself with a smirky smile on his own User page and on the Max Weber Talk page. 209.3.238.61 (talk) 18:52, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you want me to do, or can do. The Max Weber page is protected, so that issue has been resolved for now. Whom is the editor who you believe is at fault? Bearian (talk) 20:35, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

For User:Bearian. Thanks for your quick note. User:Bink on the Max Weber Talk page is trying to block an Admin report I am trying to prepare there by doing section deletes every time I try to pull the materials together. He is apparently upset that there is agreement between my edit there with User:Petrus (Petrus wants some citation strengthening which is good with me) and is oddly trying to block this report being made and the edit itself being posted. Last Friday he requested Admin protection against posting the otherwise agreed upon format for the edit (misrepresenting that a 3rd editor was involved by not mentioning him) at the same time I was requesting Admin help. His Admin report got serviced first, not knowing that there was an agreement edit about to be posted, and his Admin protected the page. I waited 2 hrs for my Admin to arrive without his/her arrival. My request is that there is an agreement between two users about posting the edit against a single disgruntled user who seems upset that the agreement is not in his favor. I would like to post the agreement edit (with any mods you think best if needed) for the constructive benefit of the Max Weber page. Max Weber was a trained attorney and this appears to be a situation of a Music major (User:Bink) having his feelings hurt and still wanting to have influence outside of his domain which is not in legal studies. Could you look at this. 209.3.238.61 (talk) 17:05, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

As

WP:ANI. Where was your admin report? Bearian (talk

) 18:32, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Or, as General Custer was thought of as saying, "I think those are friendly Indians over those hills." More seriously, there is an action of WP:ANI taking place now for User:Bink who has a long history of multiple edit warring. He is presently edit warring for three weeks on the "Max Weber" page, and I was hoping you could protect the constructive edit I have prepared now and am prepared to post (I listed the edit warring habits of this User on the Weber Talk page.) User:Bink has no background in legal scholars such as Max Weber and apparently a great deal of idle time. He is multiple edit warring on multiple pages with no end in site. He is also presently trying to block a serious copyright violation issue on the "Augustine Theodicy" without any expertise in copyright. Please help. 209.3.238.61 (talk) 21:09, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Also, please block account creation from this IP address due to vandalism as well. Thanks!

I only block account creation in extreme cases, so I am denying your request, for now. Bearian (talk) 21:11, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Greetings Bearian. Thank you for the BS. It'll stay up 'til I manage to get round to archiving the page some time later in the day. Thanks for being out there. --Technopat (talk) 05:21, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Now that I've brought you into my fold, as it were, I hope you won't mind if I impinge upon your legal knowledge and/or mere curiosity and ask you to have a butcher's at something I raised the other day over at AN/I, if you haven't seen it already, that is. Cheers. --Technopat (talk) 05:32, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is IP making unfounded accusations. Thank you. - 212.50.182.151 (talk) 09:41, 1 October 2013 (UTC) I have struck the above, pending the user's decision to do whatever he wishes with same. The reason is that it is totally speculative and totally misleading. In the AN/I thread referred to above, I mentioned having consulted an admin, but Bearian is not the admin I consulted. --Technopat (talk) 10:35, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

I will have very limited ability to edit between October 3 and 7. 16:07, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Bearian, but I'm not a sysop/sysop candidate. I guess you sent that message for a wrong person! :-) Cheers.

So you're !voting "keep" solely because you're too lazy to read my explanation of how terrible the sourcing is in the article? As I said, most of it either amounts to "this source has 'citation needed' in it but otherwise has jack squat to do with Wikipedia" or "this source only mentions the xkcd comic" or "this source doesn't even mention" citation needed. Hardly tl;dr to me, and if you think that is tl;dr, then you must have a serious laziness problem. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 18:58, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

LOL. I'll take a look at it later. Bearian (talk) 19:02, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Steve Pearce (politician) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s and 1 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Great job here. But when you de-stub an article, remove the stub tags. Think this is big enough an expansion to send to DYK? Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 21:44, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Yes, can you do that? Bearian (talk) 22:48, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

I am fully aware of BEFORE, thankyouverymuch. GiantSnowman 16:16, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

you asked to delete the KCPS Clarity page. Can you please explain exactly what is wrong with the page / can be improved? The language is very objective and it is extensively sourced from media articles. It measures up very well on wikipedia requirements to wikipedia pages for any company. Simply proposing the page be removed without providing an explanation or pinpointing what can be improved is not very helpful! ;-)
