Hopiakuta
Hi - I think Hopiakuta is asking to have a phone consultation - several of his comments have obliquely talked about that, and I think that's what he's referring to when he points to your sig - the "talk to me" part. I saw him saying something similar somewhere else, and I'm finally adding it up. It's all very bizarre. I don't have the time, nor the needed background, to sort through his technical issues, but I wonder if someone might be able to step up for this. He has something to say - it's just not getting to us. Nice to meet you, by the way. Tvoz |talk 22:19, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
Hmm... It says he was blocked at around ten then unblocked at 16:00... that's only six hours, unless I'm reading it wrong. (which is completely possible- the whole 24 hour clock screws with my brain) Plus it happened almost a year ago. Looks like this guy's been a Wikipedian longer than me! Nevertheless, it seems like if he was going to learn from a block he would have learned his lesson a year ago. A ban on the other hand... I don't know. I'm not sure he would understand. Many editors have already asked him to "knock it off", making it formal probably isn't going to change things. The idea of a ban, in and of itself, isn't very concrete and I think that we need to be very clear with him or else more misunderstandings are likely to ensue. On the less serious side of this conversation, I've decided that in addition to being able to hold my breath under water and fly, I want to have a little usb port installed in my brain. Need to learn about Geological Oceanography? Easy! I just plug in this flash drive and BAM! Instant expertise! The practical applications are endless!! L'Aquatique talktome 08:38, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
I've read through some of his posts and nearly all of them could be considered disruptive. His account history goes back to June 2006 (which is a continuation of earlier postings from an IP address). He seems to be the same user at http://eng.anarchopedia.org/index.php/User:hopiakuta, and may not be fully comprehending the difference between wikipedia and anarchopedia. He's been tolerated here quite a long time, despite being nearly obviously disruptive. I don't have any particularly good suggestions. I've seen much less disruptive folks end up banned. He seems to at least think he has a disability of some kind, but I don't have much of clue what it might be. Harsh though it may sound, if he can't communicate through writing this might not be the best place for him. BTW - can you fix your sig? Each "start font" (font) needs a matching "close font" (/font). This is why the font color continues after your sig. -- Rick Block (talk) 05:02, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
(unindent)Whoa, sorry I didn't notice your post until now. God, I'm such a space cadet at times. 'Nee way , thanks for your help and input. I understand being overbooked!

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Public reactions to the Giffords assassination attempt
now closed; hope my rationale wasn't too TL:DR (or, y'know, wrong). Ironholds (talk) 23:25, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
- Tee hee... well, it might have been edging in on tl:dr- in most cases you wouldn't need much of a rationale or even necessarily one at all. However, I think it was relatively reasonable for you to put in what you did as it was a contentious AfD. No matter what you do in these cases, people are going to argue with you about it- I wouldn't be surprised if they already were! However, any uninvolved admin would almost certainly agree with your decision so don't worry about it. Good work being bold! l'aquatique[talk] 20:20, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
Hey I know it was a long time ago but could you userfy the most relavent reversion of Eastwood (rapper)? To User:STATicVerseatide/Eastwood (rapper) STATic message me! 19:12, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
Done - I did a restore/move to preserve all of the revisions- so if you're looking for a specific one feel free to revert it to the revision you like. However if you do that, please remove the categories (you can write them like this
[[:Category:loremipsum]]
to keep the categories there for reference but not actually place the article in the category). Enjoy! l'aquatique[talk] 20:23, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
Wikipedia:WikiProject Mixed martial arts
Regarding your warning, for the record, I did start a discussion previously to changing it since January 11, 2011. After 5 days, I went ahead and changed it per WP:BB since January 16, 2011. It was only on January 23, 2011 that Paralympiakos reverted the changes without discussing them before doing it, which by the way he did again. Jfgslo (talk) 22:20, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
- I just noticed that, it was sort of a ways up the talk page so I didn't see it before. I warned User:Paralympiakos about edit warring, so if the issue continues to persist please let me know and I can intervene further. As far as I can tell from your discussion, this is a MOS issue, yes? l'aquatique[talk] 22:22, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
- Correct, mainly with capitalization (MOS:CAPS) and to a lesser degree with flag icons (MOS:ICON). Since it's an style issue, most editors appear to simply ignore the discussion and the Manual of Styles. Any suggestion to get more editors involved in this discussion? Jfgslo (talk) 23:45, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
- By the way, I mentioned the revert that Paralympiakos did because I didn't notice the warning in his talk page since it was removed. I thought you had forgotten to put it or that it was placed before the revert. Jfgslo (talk) 23:52, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
- MOS issues are tricky mostly because the manual of style is a guideline, not policy and thus not generally well-enforced. Indeed, WP:IAR tells us we should use common sense rather than strictly sticking to guidelines so acceptance of MOS rules tends to vary quite a bit. A good argument against using icons (that's not mentioned in the MOS) is that loading images of any kind increases server load, and can be annoying for people with slow connections, text-based browsers, etc. I don't really like using images at all unless they're really necessary, and this is a place where they are most certainly not necessary. That said, I wouldn't (and probably no other admin would) place a block or page protection for manual of style violations unless there was a 3RR violation, so your best bet to solve this is to seek out mediation or more opinions and convince the other party to stop reverting.
- In any case, you have a few options for getting more minds involved. I would start with a post on the MOS talk page. We also have a third opinion mechanism that brings an uninvolved editor into the arena, but that is essentially the purpose I am serving for you here, so you may not want to go down that route. You could also try opening a request for comment, but try the MOS talk page first because this seems like a pretty open and shut dealio. Hope that helps, let me know if there's anything else I can assist with. l'aquatique[talk] 00:04, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
- It's been already 3 days since I requested help at WT:MOS and there have been no responses so far. Even Paralympiakos has commented nothing on the issue, only leaving me a message in my talk page to stop correcting capitalization because it looks ugly. So far, only LOL has added something to the discussion. I still want to revert the changes made by Paralympiakos since he did not give solid arguments for doing it and I firmly believe that the way it is right now, WP:MMA is contradicting WP:MOS, MOS:CAPS and MOS:ICON and wasting bandwidth unnecessarily, but I believe that if I make changes he will simply revert them back without discussing in the talk page of the project. What do you suggest that I do now? Do I wait, do I request help at MOS:CAPS and MOS:ICON or something else? Jfgslo (talk) 16:26, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
- I would make the change one more time, and if he reverts it open a request for comment to bring more eyes to the subject. Also, make sure to mention the MOS in your edit summary and keep it really low-key. If you open the RfC, avoid any sort of blame placing and word it something like, "there's a dispute between several editors over interpretation of the Manual of Style." l'aquatique[talk] 16:40, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
- I have followed your advice. I have once again changed the text of that section. Now I'll wait to see if it's reverted again. Jfgslo (talk) 01:59, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- I have a request. Could you comment on WT:MMA#MMA record table problems in response to Paralympiakos' most recent comment? I'm afraid that it might seem too personal if only I responded to him, since he, in my opinion, gave no valid reason and seems to simply want to ignore every guideline that he doesn't like. Please read his comments and let me know what you think. I honestly don't see what was the point of them other than expressing that he doesn't like those guidelines and that they should be ignored. Jfgslo (talk) 19:42, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

(unindent) I commented. I am concerned about the level of hostility going on, but as a now semi-involved admin I can't really do anything about it per se. If he reverts you again, I would recommend opening up a request for comment. l'aquatique[talk] 00:11, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. Truth be told, I'm also concerned about that, particularly because it's over stylistic issues. I'll be watching it carefully to open a request for comment when needed. Jfgslo (talk) 01:45, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- Well, for right now let's just keep an eye on it. It seems like a simple aesthetic issue like this could be resolved without too much fuss, but perhaps I'm just naive. l'aquatique[talk] 04:22, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
Related edits
Paralympiakos has now been making changes to the biographical articles directly, calling the reverts "normal convention" and plainly ignoring the manual of styles. Check these diffs: Cain Velasquez, Shane Carwin, Stefan Struve. Obviously, he's been doing this without consensus and in several more articles. Could you give me a suggestion on how to proceed here? Do I simply revert his changes? I believe that if I start reverting his changes it might start an edit war on several articles and since they are style edits, it could go on for a very long time. Jfgslo (talk) 19:09, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry for my slow response, I've been really busy. I recommend opening a request for comment at this point, if you haven't done so already. l'aquatique[talk] 17:53, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
- Alright, I requested for comment at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Request board. In the mean time, should I refrain from reverting those edits? Because there are many more now. Jfgslo (talk) 16:00, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
As I expected an edit war is ongoing. Just check Special:Contributions/Paralympiakos. I will not revert his edits within the next 24 hours to avoid going against Wikipedia editing policies, but I will revert them back and I'm sure Paralympiakos will do the same. Since these are style edits I really doubt that any administrator will consider them vandalism, which essentially means that we will keep on doing this. What could I do to avoid this useless waste of time of restoring he correct stylization every time this situation happens? Jfgslo (talk) 22:19, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- You could.....I dunno...not do them? It's clear that only you and LOL want to stick rigidly to the MOS "rules". Many many other people do not like them and have reverted. You're the one causing these problems, Jfgslo. Paralympiakos (talk) 22:20, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- If you look at the discussion on WT:MMA you are the only one who has voiced an opinion against this style and several people have voiced their opinion for it. --Tuoppi gm (talk) 01:07, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

- Jfgslo, do not edit war if at all possible, doing so will render you just as culpable as Paralympiakos. Since an rfc was not successful in solving this, you will perhaps wish to open a request for comment (user conduct) which instead of discussing the nature of the edits, discusses the user them self. I am far too involved to feel comfortable using my tools to put a halt to this conflict, but something like that would hopefully draw another admin's attention. You could also try an/i if you're feeling brave. l'aquatique[talk] 16:15, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
- I will follow your advice and will not edit war. As you suggested, I have opened Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Paralympiakos. You are welcome to comment on it. Hopefully, another administrator will take notice this time. Jfgslo (talk) 19:47, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Notice of change
Hello. You are receiving this message because of a recent change to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that if you are inactive for a continuous three year period, you will be unable to request return of the administrative user right. This includes inactive time prior to your desysopping if you were desysopped for inactivity and inactive time prior to the change in policy. Inactivity is defined as the absence of edits or logged actions. Until such time as you have been inactive for three years, you may request return of the tools at the bureaucrats' noticeboard. After you have been inactive for three years, you may seek return of the tools only through WP:RFA. Thank you. MBisanz talk 00:20, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Pride 2014
Hi L'Aquatique. In case you are not aware, there is an upcoming campaign to improve coverage of LGBT-related topics on Wikipedia, culminating with an international edit-a-thon on June 21. See Wiki Loves Pride 2014 for more information. If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved. This would be a tremendous help to Wikipedia and coverage of LGBT culture and history. Thanks for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions! --Another Believer (Talk) 16:06, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

The article Epidural blood patch has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
I believe this does not meet WP:GNG for a standalone article and plan to cover it in epidural administration.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 02:25, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

As a member of WikiProject LGBT studies, editing on LGBTQ+ issues or if you identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, come help us set goals, develop our organisation and structures, consider how to respond to issues faced by Queer editors, and plan for the next 12 months.
We will be meeting online for 3 half-days, 14–16 May at 1400–1730 UTC. While our working language is English, we are looking to accommodate users who would prefer to participate in other languages, including translation facilities.
