- Hi Blodance,
- Did your read Wikipedia:Advice to users using Tor to bypass the Great Firewall? You can get an exemption from open proxies blocking.
- If you already did, please re-active the helpme banner. Otherwise, try the contact link.
- Hope it helps. Calimo (talk) 10:00, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
- Many thanks for the information, but I guess it's gonna take some time to edit 3000 times >_> Blodance (talk) 10:10, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
- Why would you require 3000 edits? I don't think Wikipedia:IP block exemption says so. The question is, can you "be trusted not to abuse the right"? It's not to me to answer this question, but I think it's worth trying. Calimo (talk) 11:15, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I meant the requirement for WP:IPBE, as the latter seems to be about unblocking a certain individual IP/IP range, which does not seem to be my case. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong plz :) Blodance (talk) 12:13, 26 September 2009 (UTC)]
- If I understand WP:IPBE correctly, it is about exempting a registered editor against all open proxies blocks, so you'd be allowed to edit from any proxy, but as I never tried myself I'm not sure of that. Calimo (talk) 17:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)]
- Oops, sorri about that. It is about overriding all IP blocks for a registered user. I'll have a try - sent an email. I really appreciate your help :D Blodance (talk) 17:50, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oh and btw, do you know how long would it usu takes to receive a reply from the admins(or w/e)? I'm so glad that at least I've got some hope to get rid of this long-lasting problem. You know, if i ever try to access those "ZOMGANTICPC" pages(sometimes I don't even know why - it's hilarious that a PRC citizen being denied access to the article about PRC of an encyclopedia by his own gov't), it not only blocks me from accessing the page I'm requesting. It blocks me from accessing the whole Wikipedia... which really pisses me off. (And of course the article about PRC on Chinese Wikipedia is !@^#^*&#!@[expletive deleted] biased...)Blodance (talk) 18:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Please read the page
Note in particular that you are not permitted to use this newly-granted right to edit Wikipedia via anonymous proxies, or disruptively. If you do, or there is a serious concern of abuse, then the right may be removed by any administrator.
Appropriate usage and compliance with the policy may be checked periodically, due to the nature of block exemption, and block exemption will be removed when no longer needed (for example, when the block it is related to expires).
I hope this will enhance your editing, and allow you to edit successfully and without disruption. --Closedmouth (talk) 18:41, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
Japan Airlines Flight 472 (1972)
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Shadowjams (talk) 08:21, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
- I've made a start on giving the article some shape. Hopefully we'll be able to save it from deletion. Another option is the article incubator if it gets deleted. Mjroots (talk) 20:18, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
Can you try and keep your comments directly related to the improvemet of the article on Akmal Shaikh. "Personal positions" such as this aren't helpful in the article and are not appropriate on article talk pages. Thanks for you contribution to the article, but just try to stay on topic. Jolly Ω Janner 02:41, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry, I guess I just eventually got involved in irrelevant discussions... I'll take even greater care from now on. Blodance (talk) 03:07, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
Improving the article on Akmal Shaikh
Hey Blodance, I just wanted to thank you for the constructive approach you've taken on the article on Akmal Shaikh. I don't agree personally with all of your edits, but greatly appreciate your work on the article and your obvious good faith efforts preserve the neutrality of the article. Thanks!

Why can't you access the RS noticeboard - are you inside the PRC? Ohconfucius ¡digame! 05:49, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
thanks for the help
Much appreciate the rapid response. I am tech not savvy. Mucho thanko.
Thank you
Thank you for your clear and cogent points made at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Another Gospel (book). Much appreciated, Cirt (talk) 22:50, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
Articles for deletion nomination of List of children of NBA MVP Players
Hi. I have put the GA Review on hold for seven days to allow time for the issues detailed on Talk:Akmal Shaikh/GA1 to be addressed. Any questions please get in touch. SilkTork *YES! 12:34, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- Hi SilkTork, and thanks for the GA review on Akmal Shaikh. I was on a wikibreak to have the Chinese New Year holiday last week, so I did not see your message on my talk. Please kindly allow me a bit more time to fix the POV problem. Regards, Blodance the Seeker 05:44, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
- I'm nearly done on any major editing there. Looking forward to your input! Ohconfucius ¡digame! 01:40, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
- Well, I was considering how to improve the section. After the overhaul, its tone sounds well now, but my concern is, if you read thru the whole section, it is like... all about "to what extent is he mentally ill". That is, I failed to find strong claims from (presumably) Chinese sources that he is not mentally ill, which are needed to balance the section. The China Daily one sounds pretty weak, making the whole section seem unbalanced. I'll try and see if I can find other ones. Incidentally, the long paragraphs are a pain to read. Maybe breaking 'em up into sub-sections can help. (better with pics of course... but I've no idea what kind of pics would be appropriate) Blodance the Seeker 02:15, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
- Always good to get feedback when editing alone. I'll have a think too about how that section sounds. As to the images, I see you added the heroin - not sure about that. Could perhaps have one of his grave... fair use, of course. ;-) Ohconfucius ¡digame! 10:28, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
- Well, I doubt if the fair use claim will stand... it would be "potentially replacable" since his grave still exists and is not barred from public access so one can always go there and take a photo. We got some Muslim grave pics in Islamic funeral but I'm still considering if it's neccessary. Also, I can't access your talk page - presumably because there's the keyword F41u|\| 90|\|9 on it. (sorry for the 1337speak...) Blodance the Seeker 11:09, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
- Ah, I see that they have refined their techniques - gone is the blanket site block, and that my page is one of those where fresh-water crustaceans reside. Ohconfucius ¡digame! 01:31, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

GA Review of Akmal Shaikh on hold
The GA review of the Akmal Shaikh article has been on hold for over 30 days. It is near to being passed, but the Akmal_Shaikh#Reaction section needs editing to reduce the amount of direct quotation as per Wikipedia:Quotations, and also to be trimmed in general to meet GA criteria 3(b): "stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail". Any assistance in this matter would be appreciated. SilkTork *YES! 10:43, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
