Aleksa Lukić

Resolved.

REASON:This user want to be member of autopatrolled group.--AleksA ツ 19:07, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, we don't have an autopatrolled user group here. Your edits will remain unpatrolled until an admin has looked over them. This is the same for all non-admins. Gob lin 19:09, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A rollback group, can you give me them user authority?--AleksA ツ 20:38, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:RFR. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 20:39, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Considering the fact that you just got unblocked, I don't think you're likely to have it granted. Give it a bit more time. EVula // talk // 20:42, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Community ban on Snow funn at tall

Resolved.

See indef block proposal above – just got indeffed for extremely abusive socking (here, have a little perusal through his sock category). Perhaps he's RMHED? I don't even know if this needs to be formal – let's just make it so, and let him know that simple.wikipedia really doesn't want him around. --Dylan 620 _{(Sign this plz)} 01:38, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sigh, looks like I was wrong... Kennedy (talk) 08:06, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is anyone going to comment on the proposal? It's been 14.5 hours. --Dylan 620 _{(Sign this plz)} 16:03, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

He is already blocked. There isn't anything to comment on. Also to note, things move much more slowly on here than on en, so 14.5 hours isn't very long. -Djsasso (talk) 16:06, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I know that he's blocked, I was just proposing to turn the block into a ban. --Dylan 620 _{(Sign this plz)} 16:07, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An indefinate block is a ban for all intents an purpose. -Djsasso (talk) 16:08, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aleksa Lukic's Behavior

At EhJJ's RFA, Aleksa Lukic put out a controversial vote. When EhJJ tried to respond, Aleksa Lukic called him a troll. Lukic has already personally attacked EhJJ, but EhJJ accepted his apology. Now that this is the second time, and Aleksa Lukic has already been blocked, what should be done? Meetare Shappy ^Cunkelfratz! 15:48, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't lie a just tell him to don't turn thematics of debate. Nothing personally --AleksA ツ 15:53, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What an extremely immature editor. What ought to be done is that Aleksa starts acting like an adult, but that's not really down to anyone but him/her. Majorly talk 15:57, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Insult

one out all out buddy - want a clown to come round your house and kill you? that is this user wrote to me after I have warned him to don't do war of changes and in article Clown he has also write don't adequate informations. Special:RecentChanges — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aleksa Lukic (talk • contribs)

This is not an insult, and you are edit warring. Please stop, or you will be blocked. Majorly talk 16:21, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree; twice Aleksa Lukic reverted the change (which is unsourced, not relevant, controversial, and boarderline vandalism), and once he restored content removed for no reason (which was certainly vandalism). Though this is not a matter for ANI, Platter 'o ham seems clearly in the wrong ShakingSpirit^talk 16:33, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You disagree that it was an insult? It was a question, not a statement. EVula // talk // 16:47, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with Majorly's dismissal of the issue with an accusation of edit waring - it seems Aleksa Lukic has, rightly or wrongly, a reputation, and wanted to give my opinion as a neutral observer. Apologies for not being clearer. ShakingSpirit^talk 16:51, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, alright. That makes much more sense. :) EVula // talk // 16:54, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not seeing a problem here. EVula // talk // 16:30, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

...now, that said, Platter o' ham's comment on Aleksa's talk page[1] is certainly uncalled for. EVula // talk // 16:31, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly, I'm seeing problems with both users personally. Majorly talk 16:39, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shaking Spirit is an interesting one - returning after 3 years of inactivity to warn me about my civility. As regards the clown section, it is a 'clowns in popular culture' at best. I removed the rest of the section because the other clowns seemed no more notable than Gacy. I'm sorry if my message to Lukic came across as harsh rather than funny - I didn't mean to threaten him Platter 'o ham (talk) 16:42, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

'Clowns in Popular Culture' is the majority of the article; I disagree with your axing over half the article after your contribution was reverted, just to prove your point. ShakingSpirit^talk 16:46, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It might be the majority of the article, that doesn't make it good... Platter 'o ham (talk) 16:58, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So why did you come back, ShakingSpirit? It does seem a little odd, frankly. But I've seen weirder things. Like, here, a couple of what are essentially brand new editors arguing on AN. Majorly talk 16:59, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

SS has been plenty active on enwiki. If you look at his contribs here, you'll see he hopped over and reverted and warned someone. I'd imagine he spilled onto this situation by it being at the top of the RecentChanges page (which is how I noticed it before it came here). EVula // talk // 17:01, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm here because I was being talked about. I've added some sources for what I wrote about clowns. For someone who's known as The Killer Clown, I think Gacy has a good chance of fitting into the Clowns in Popular Culture section. So now it's Sourced, Relevant, Controvercial perhaps ... but borderline vandalism? That's not really my style... Platter 'o ham (talk) 17:03, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

EVula's dead-on about how I got here :) Still it seems that the issue initially raised has been resolved, Platter 'o ham has apologized for his perhaps poor choice of words, and although I still have my grievances over the article change itself, I'll take that to the appropriate place. ShakingSpirit^talk 18:39, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe I didn't read it right, but I'm confused, what's happening?-- † CM ₁₆ 18:55, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Takes a wikignome to understand how a wikignome operates, apparently. ;) EVula // talk // 18:58, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tharnton345 ban evasion

Resolved.

See Special:Contributions/78.148.102.206; this is how I'm sure. Could we perhaps get Eptalon, Majorly, or The Rambling Man over here to make sure? --Dylan 620 ^{Review me} 16:32, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please request on the appropriate page next time; besides, if it was checked and confirmed on enwiki, what would be the point here? And it was blocked as a sock of a different username... Majorly talk 16:40, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would have requested on the appropriate page, but I don't know where that is. --Dylan 620 ^{Review me} 16:42, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WP:RfCU. EhJJ^TALK 16:47, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The sad thing was that if he didn't sock he was probably going to have his ban lited in a year....doubt that will happen now. Guess he is impatient. A ear must seem like forever for someone so young. -Djsasso (talk) 16:45, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could somebody please block the IP, and reset the ban on Tharnton for another year? --Dylan 620 ^{Review me} 16:51, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

He stopped editing, its not that big a deal. Relax. -Djsasso (talk) 17:16, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
