Banned for a week for vandalism. --—The preceding signed comment was added by Hagnat (talk • contribs) at 16:20, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

After talking with sexy, i decided to wait for the input of another sysop in this case. Dont make me regret this decision. --—The preceding signed comment was added by Hagnat (talk • contribs) at 16:59, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Here's my input. What the hell were you thinking? You might regret your actions. --– Nubis ^NWO 23:42, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Not Vandalism by the way. The only borderline offense is that it is a bit long. Maybe ask him to shorten it? You couldn't vb Iscariot for blinking and the spoiler you can't vb Read for the string of ds. Why don't you write a new sig policy?--– Nubis ^NWO 23:52, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Not Vandalism, if you couldn't tell by me asking him to at least change the letters up a bit. Sure as hell pisses me off, but nothing strictly against the rules. Though I do strongly ask him to change at least his user link to where it's easier to see. Different color, maybe bold it?--Suicidal Angel - Help needed? 02:55, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

It is against the rules. It needs to be clear or easy to determine who signed. The way the sig was set up it obviously wasn't and that was intentional. It isn't vandalism because it hasn't been a week and he either didn't realize that the policy actually says it needs to be clear who is signing or is actually doing this in bad faith as opposed to just screwing around. For now assuming good faith seems to be the way to go, and also please read the damn policy people, there's more than the simple list of larger restrictions there. --Karek^maps?! 03:01, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

It says that the handle portion must link to your user page, or a sub-page so that an editor can easily discover more about said editor. Nowhere does it say that it has to be clearly defined or identifiable, only that it must be there. Should one of those other failed sig policies have passed instead of failing, this would be vandalism. Under the current policy though, although annoying, it's not vandalism.--Suicidal Angel - Help needed? 03:33, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry what's not clear about it having to be clear? I wasn't aware there were thirty different meanings to that sentence beyond the obvious two that there needs to be a link and that it needs to be easily findable. --Karek^maps?! 04:01, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Read has been pushing the sig policy deliberately. The week to change the sig is there to give people who are off line a chance to change their sig (especially sigs that arn't templated). There is nothing in the policy disallowing someone else from editing templated sigs (because they are accessible to editing by anyone) to bring them in line with policy, especially sigs that are all over the wiki, like Read's. Hagnat brought it into line, and gave Read a polite (non-escalation) warning about making the user link obvious, and yet Read went right back and did it again. That deserves the next escalation, which is a week ban -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 05:34 1 February 2009 (BST)

No, I didn't change it back to the same version that hagnat had removed, I took out about 7 or so links from it so that my userpage was easy to find. Why is that so hard to understand? I did what he said.--CyberRead240 08:25, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - As Boxy. Read is deliberately pushing the letter of the law in bad faith. His userpage link is not easy to find and the sig is long enough and it is long enough that it frequently forces itself onto a second line. By the letter of the law we should give him a week to change it, but by he spirit that would be ridiculous.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 16:31, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

He has changed it to make it within the "law". Twice. This time, if you can't find his user page link, then you must be blind. It's large, bold, and it's not lowercase.--Suicidal Angel - Help needed? 16:36, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

He has admitted that he is deliberately abusing the policy, which makes it bad faith and thus vandalism. He know exactly what he is and that makes it vandalism whether or not it is a breach of the exact wording of the policy.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 17:01, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism Pretty clear cut case in my opinion. deliberate abuse=vandalism. Conndraka^{mod TAZM CFT} 19:46, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, now it is Vandalism for the reasons mentioned by WanYao on the talk page. --Karek^maps?! 20:53, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Five out of seven sysops says its vandalism. The week ban was issued again. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[talk] [mod]} 21:00, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - As pointed out above, he knew he was breaking the policy and continued to do so even after being asked to bring his sig in line with it. -- Cheese 21:03, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Ummm what policy? What the fuck is this? Karek's sig breaks my user talk page just as much as reads did. Bias amongst the trusted users? no wai.--xoxo 04:52, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

btw that's a serious question.--xoxo 23:57, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

The issue isn't so much breaking pages as it is clarity of who is signing. At least initially(and as can be shown by my comments on Read's page). The case ended up being vandalism because he was intentionally trying to disrupt the wiki to make a point, kinda like the A/D on A/D case. --Karek^maps?! 04:46, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

He wasn't really trying to disrupt the wiki, he wanted an uglyass signature and managed to make one whilst keeping it within policy. This disruption only resulted because the ops were out to get him, see what SA said on A/M.--xoxo 05:02, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Like I said before I don't think it should have gotten to this point but, he did provide more than enough reason for me to view it was vandalism. If you want to see more of my view on that It's all there on my talk page where SA asked. And I think that's about all that needs to be discussed here regarding this closed case, if you wish to continue my talk page would certainly be an appropriate place. --Karek^maps?! 05:09, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Although the case is closed, I'd like to state for the record that I think this is not vandalism - at least not yet. Read wasn't given the correct amount of time to change his signature, which is stated as one week in the signature policy. --ZsL 05:22, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Verdict	Not Vandalism

Made gross changes to Grayside Civil War, (which is still a public page) simply because he disliked the page. The current page is under discussion and it has already been mentioned he has no control over the page, as it's not a group page nor a talk page, yet, defying this, he has gone ahead and done it anyway. The two main edits made to the page since then were very constructive edits and added to the page itself. To remove around 3000 words from a page just because he disagrees warrants vandalism in my opinion. --Ryzak Black 23:11, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Made gross changes to Grayside Civil War that compeletely twist and distort the article. I asked User:Captain Rickety to avoid responding to prior provocatuions. However these acts are clearly harassment and I believe they fully constitute gross vandalism. I am submiting both for a joint act of vandalism. --Ferrum Leo 00:18, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm with ScouterTX on this one, obviously. This is a public page, maybe Captain Rickety/ferrum leo, whatever he calls himself these days should learn how to make sub pages. Anyways, this isn't vandalism, there's been edits from STARS too, I believe this page involves all of East Grayside, and should be fully editable (par vandalism, of course) by all who inhabit it. Besides, if you'll also notice Captain Rickety was the one that broke the STARS redirects a little while ago and made some stupid page out of one of them?

Not vandalism - if you want a page that excludes your opposition from posting their point of view (POV), put it in your group namespace (either here or here). Pages like this one however, that are in the main namespace should be kept in a Neutral Point of View (NPOV), or at least allow for all parties to put their opinion of the matter forward (in a respectful manner). The worst thing that Ryzak and Scouter did was to label all the FURIG posts as "FURIG's original fiction" as opposed to their own versions being labeled "opinion" -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 23:16 28 January 2009 (BST)

Verdict	Vandalism
Action taken	24 hour Ban

While in an arbitration dispute with KotD he put in move requests for several groups (from link down) in an attempt to influence the case and harass the groups/KotD. The rightful leaders of the groups had to request to have their pages moved back because of his actions. His intent is clearly shown here from his comment. This is harassment, clearly bad faith, and abuse of the system and should not be allowed.--– Nubis ^NWO 02:14, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - abusing the red tape is bad, mmkay. --—The preceding signed comment was added by Hagnat (talk • contribs) at 12:08, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Not vandalism - it's a grey area of the group sub-page protocol, as evidenced by the fact that the pages were indeed moved despite a sysop review of the request. Unfortunately he was ignorant of the history of the RRF groups, and didn't realise that it was a different circumstance to the DEM pages. It's not unreasonable to demand that other pages that you believe are similar in group standing be treated the same -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 10:14 27 January 2009 (BST)

Ignorant of the history of the RRF groups? So what is this comment: Until such time as a member of the War Council overrules me, I am the user with the most relevant information regarding the RRF, not you.

Also did you notice this bit where he requests the move of Axes High then comes back with this comment to Cheese about how he said he contested the original move, you overruled me and went and fucking moved it. --– Nubis ^NWO 01:22, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Boxy, he wasn't ignorant of the difference between the two, he also wasn't ignorant of the DEM's stance vs the RRFs. He knew what he was doing, he knew and the Recruitment/Arbitration case alone make that point extremely well but, the fact that he's been in the RRF for over a year now doesn't hurt. It is unreasonable to demand groups are treated in similar manners when the circumstances aren't similar, it's more so when you are in an active dispute over that exact matter. And if you can't believe that how about you go over the case when he tried this again in reverse when the DEM finally got this undone. --Karek^maps?! 02:43, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Err...how on earth did Iscariot's move request ever get approved in the first place? The DEM has made it clear in a heck of a lot of places that they consider their member groups to be allied groups (ala the NMC and the DA). The NMC and the DA have not been forced to move their allied groups to sub-page status; neither should the DEM. And in either case, shouldn't the DEM be the ones to determine how they want their wiki pages grouped -- whether they want to portray those groups as subgroups, or simply as allied groups?

Can I request for those pages to be moved BACK to independent pages, or do I have to be a DEM member for that move-reversion request to count? --Jen 03:41, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

That would be the question of the day, however rest assured in the knowledge that this already did get undone a while ago, Iscariot threw a fit then and got escalated in the process. This should have been reported when it was done and shouldn't have been served but was apparently missed and that's why Nubis reported it now. Here are the links to the other case Case(talk). There is also some on A/MR. --Karek^maps?! 03:46, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Also, I was wondering whether or not a Misconduct case would be appropriate however, on investigation I don't believe Cheese had any intent whereas Iscariot clearly did.--– Nubis ^NWO 00:11, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

User:Jedaz

Verdict	Not Vandalism
Action taken	None Required

Jedaz (talk | contribs | logs | block | IP Check | vndl data | discuss)

Removed an in progress arbitration case without justifiable reason or authority. Jedaz's edit summary says that a 'resolution had occured'. This is incorrect. As the party with the grievance that required third party mediation, no resolution had been reached. Sgt Raiden had accepted the case and we were in the arbitrator selection phase when Jedaz performed his vandalism. Are we actually going to allow users that are not involved to cancel an arbitration case in progress simply because they do not like it? Is that the route we are going down?

Request appropriate escalation and full restoration of the case. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 08:36, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

If Sgt. Raiden wants this case to continue then your request may have some merit. Until he states that he wants a full Arbies case and contributes names of arbitrators then the case is where it belongs. But on the plus side, he has been properly warned about non-NPOV edits and the next batch may result in an official warning. --– Nubis ^NWO 09:29, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Wait, can a user simply say "Nope, I don't want an arbitration case" and have it removed? I was under the impression that if they didn't accept the case, a representative would be selected for them. --Pestolence^(talk) 23:49, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

No user can be forced into arbitration. its a process where both parties agree to reach a common ground and cease any hostilities. If one side of the case does not want that, you cant force him to accept it. I dont know from where this representative thing came from, but it wasnt there when the system was created and doesnt help mitigate drama in any way. And not vandalism, btw --—The preceding signed comment was added by Hagnat (talk • contribs) at 16:18, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Actually it was, Iscariot removed the rule from the page and no one really bothered to challenge it because we don't tend to enforce that rule. The rule is that Sysops can force it but, aside from the fact that the case was in response to us NOT banning him we wouldn't do it in this case obviously. Technically it can be forced, practically it's pointless in most cases, archiving it due to death is often better unless there is a real issue involved. --Karek^maps?! 02:10, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Not Vandalism - If the other party wants the case to proceed then it can be restored. Jedaz has to my knowledge breached no rules and as a result was within his right to remove the case. Cheese 10:14, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Not Vandalism - Although intentionally harassing users, threatening to drive them off the wiki, and intentionally attempting to abuse arbitration very well might be. Proceed carefully Iscariot. --Karek^maps?! 09:03, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Verdict	Not Vandalism
Action taken	None Required

Ok, I don't know if this is technically vandalism or not... But Sgt Raiden posted a "forged" External Military Report in the Shearbank news, here. Additionally, he posted this on the same page -- a blatant violation of NPOV guidelines. While the latter certainly isn't vandalism, I think it has some bearing on this case in establishing "character" and wilful intent to flout basic wiki policies and guidelines. --WanYao 02:38, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

I'd like to add this edit (and Moloch's reversion back to NPOV) to the evidence. Again, this isn't vandalism -- but it demonstrates a clear and consistent pattern of flouting NPOV guideines, which I believe is very relevant to this case. --WanYao 02:44, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

And yet again. Just browse his contribs and you'll see he does this over and over. --WanYao 02:47, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Your idea of "talking to him" about his edits is saying "NPOV - Learn it and use it." ? With no link to a page talking or explaining what NPOV is or any more constructive comments about it? – Nubis ^NWO 03:40, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

This seems more like a case for Arbies. What he is posting is not vandalism . --– Nubis ^NWO 03:42, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

As far as I'm aware, he's been "talked to" already about this stuff... However, considering who did the "talking to".... Anyway, if that edit isn't vandalism, fine... As I said, I wasn't sure whether the "forged" report was vandalism or not... And, yes, I've created an Arby regarding these sum total of these edits... WanYao 03:54, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, he should know better by now. Though he was the guy who got in trouble with Iscariot for non NPOV stuff in the malls being attacked by the Mall Tour, but I don't think he got it through his head what exactly he had done wrong.--SirArgo ^Talk 04:19, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

see, if it was just a newbie thing, I'd never have brought it here. But, he's been "talked to" about this. And, the NPOV guidelines are all over the News sections... And now copied on his Talk page for good measure ;) And, I've have started an Arbitration case.... So.... meh. --WanYao 07:51, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, looking at the previous case and knowing the people skills possessed by the reporter it seems reasonable to think that it was ignored as flaming. Now that you have actually given him a great explanation about NPOV and what is expected I think it would be common sense that the next "spamming" of NPOV comments could be vandalism. If he has any questions about whether or not his comments are NPOV he should either run it by a sysop or Wan. Now that it has been explained he should be able to follow the guidelines. --– Nubis ^NWO 09:12, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

How about the forging of Military Reports? There is a possibility that could come under impersonation. Liberty 11:32, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

EMRP isn't an actual user as far as I know. So, that wouldn't quite count. :/ It really is an NPOV thing.--– Nubis ^NWO 17:27, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

No, but it would count as bad faith. It's the most questionable one there and could reasonably be vandalism as he's intentionally falsely representing a game feature. That is assuming it can be shown that he knows it's a game feature. --Karek^maps?! 09:00, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree. But it doesn't seem to me that he does understand the significance, given that his "transmission" doesn't look anything like the official formatting or grammar of EMR transmissions -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 00:42 25 January 2009 (BST)

People... How can there be any ambiguity here?? He "forged" the specific frequency and he "forged" the "*static*" thing, the ellipses, etc. He was trying to make it look like an EMRP. It's obvious he knew what he was doing. Actually, I kinda think it was a creative idea! And I don't think he was literally trying to "forge" a report. I accept that it's not vandalism, and I agree, actually. But to try to argue that it isn't a kind of semi-impersonation is bunk. It was semi-impersonation of Kevan's coding, if you want to get really nit-picky. --WanYao 18:37, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

The "*static*" thing doesn't happen on EMRs though, "static" indicates the word censor taking out swearing by radio spammers (Keven's code doesn't swear). The biggest thing is his attribution of it to the EMR frequency, the rest of it doesn't look much like Kevans EMR coding at all. All EMRs looks like this "25.96 MHz: "... nearly two hundred in Shearbank ... a few big groups, but they're spread out ... several buildings with power ... serious collateral damage ... lights are on in Stickling Mall ... looks like the Gabe Building has fallen ..." (2 hours and 24 minutes ago)". Sgt Raiden's one doesn't start off with zombie numbers (as all EMRs do), it makes numerous references to "zeds" (never zeds in EMRs) and it references an evacuation to another suburb (movement comments are never in EMRs) -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 00:42 26 January 2009 (BST)

Put it this way, it's not a big deal yet. If it happens again report report report, then it's a big deal, right now it's iffy but giving him the benefit of the doubt isn't the worst thing possible. Just take him aside and talk to him about some of the editing standards on the wiki, especially on suburb pages on the off chance that it takes and was an honest mistake. --Karek^maps?! 02:13, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Mea culpa re the *static* :( I know the case on its own was borderline, but the whole point was the slew of non-NPOV crud he was posting... It kind of was a big deal in that contect. But he's been "spoken to" so there should be no excuses if he goes on another spree. Cool, then? --WanYao 11:28, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Deletion workaround for creating this page. It was already decided by the community that this crap -- which is personal and libellous -- was shamefully inappropriate for our wiki and deleted. And here it is again..... Please see this deletion request for more information. --WanYao 09:08, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Wan is correct. Just because the other guy made Umbrella Biohazard Containment Service/Umbrella/Zerg that does not make the original decision that the wiki was not the correct forum for this any less valid or the page's existence any more valid.
Please go to Undeletions like everyone else with a request and a reason why the wiki is now the right place for this. And please either ignore each other or work it out without using the wiki as a battle ground, we have enough of our own drama.

Harassment of a user. The fact none of you like said user shouldn't influence your opinion. Hagnat knows better and this is clear cut harassment. Yes the rules are long and complex and i doubt it's possible to post and follow them all however Iscariot's right to restrict people from editing within his user space should be respected. Hagnat did this to start a fight basically, poor form from a longstanding member of the community who usually tries to avoid such things. --xoxo 00:26, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - At the very least I was attempting to make a point, may have been a bit more of a sweary, pissed off sounding point that I intended, but a point nonetheless. Posting purely to ask him if he likes mudkips and then to double check you'd broken all the rules was a bit far. -- Cheese 01:05, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Not vandalism - the precedent being the dozens of times that J3D and the rest of the finis baiting crowd left similar comments on his talk page after it was clear that they weren't welcome and their posts automatically deleted. Iscariot's "rules" for his talk page have no validity here, unless they are enforce via an arbitration case against specific users.

Iscariots a dick and his rule of no Sysops is only to piss people off (and by the sounds of it, it works). All I was saying was, Hagnats a sysop, and has been for a loooooooong time. The only reason any of us came on the wiki was for finis, until ALiM popped up. Just clarifying that difference, really.--CyberRead240 14:28, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Not Vandalism. For it to be harassment you have to show a clear pattern of behavior. This is not a pattern nor is it harassment. Cheese, why are you giving validity to Iscariot's rules on his page? His rules only mean that he can delete whatever comments he doesn't like. It doesn't mean that commenting at all is vandalism. That is why people have a User page and a Talk page. --– Nubis ^NWO 13:26, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Not vandalism Simply Contacting a user even if questionable statements cannot be Vandalism. Caveat: It would be one thing if the behavior was incessant or if the contact was intentionally insulting or demeaning. As the Mudkips request is neither and the "broken rule" comment is merely "iffy”, it cannot be Vandalism...yet. Conndraka^{mod TAZM CFT} 14:44, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - a sock puppet account created solely to troll another user.

Account permbanned, and Conndraka warned -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 09:39 15 January 2009 (BST)

Umm exactly where did the account Troll anything? Other than a statement of not being involved in an Arby there is nothing said at all. I beleive this account was banned in error, as the account isn't prohibited and made no comments, nor took any actions that could honestly be considered Trolling. I therefore appeal this ruling to the entire sysop staff and ask that the account be unbanned and the warning struck until such time that said account commits some action that directly or indirectly either vandalizes this wiki or in fact attacks another user.

1)Not Vandalism, the account hasn't performed vandalism yet but should be considered on very short noticed. 2)Who it is is relevant in the case as it's a sysop and they will be prohibited from ruling on this case. 3) I'm un-permabanning the account as we can not permanently ban the account legitimately at this point., this is not User:Kevin, it's User:Faerie Queen, which, as you'll no doubt notice, isn't banned because vandalism on the account was ceased after a warning.

This account isn't a "User". The User is Conndraka and Wiki Martyr is his sock account, that does not get full "User" rights. If it's used in good faith to improve the wiki, it is ignored, but given that this one was created solely to play with Iscariot, who Conndraka has been in conflict with on arbies for a while now, it is not a good faith use of alt accounts -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 22:11 17 January 2009 (BST)

Let me get this straight. The user name isn't offensive in of itself, it hasn't committed any vandalism, it hasn't voted or been used as a sock puppet, yet you think it is right to ban it because one user randomly decided to use that "name" as part of an insanely long ridiculous self proclaimed title? So, if my account is older and I start calling myself Nubis the Boxy One I can have you banned for being a trolling account since your user name would clearly be copying me? --– Nubis ^NWO 22:47, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Haven't we been here before? No, that's got nothing to do with this scenario, where an existing user creates a sock puppet with the only intention being taking the piss out of someone they're having a dispute with. Some newbie coming along and making such an account and posting in good faith wouldn't be binned unless they made it a whole hell of a lot more obvious, and had 3 edits, none constructive -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 11:50 18 January 2009 (BST)

Boxy, alt accounts are always treated under the same auspices as user account except when the accounts existence is vandalism. Users are allowed to have alt accounts, that isn't limited to alt account you feel can't cause drama it's a blanket rule. We can only ban alt account when the account is used for constant vandalism or sock puppetry(rigging votes, falsifying consensus), just like what would be required to ban the user because, the rules that allows us to ban the account are the same. If an account's very existence is vandalism(name is impersonation) then we can ban it before it does anything, anything else means we have to assume good faith and wait 'til stuff happens to punish people for doing that stuff. Alt account have always gotten full user rights unless they were being used for real sockpuppetry, this isn't sockpuppetry, it's alt use, sockpuppetry would require intent to decieve. --Karek^maps?! 03:58, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

And I believe that this sock puppet's name, who created it, and where and what they decided to post all adds up to vandalism, and 2 other sysops agreed (admittedly before this discussion). That doesn't make us wrong, it makes this a difference of opinion on the matter, which needs to be decided by a majority decision -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 11:46 18 January 2009 (BST)

It's not a matter of differing opinion, it's a matter of policy and precedent. My opinion is that the account shouldn't have been made but, I can't ban it based on how dumb of a move I think this was, I can't rule vandalism because there was none committed just a little tomfoolery, and we can't ban the account because it meets none of the minimum requirements set by policy and precedent. --Karek^maps?! 16:01, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

3 is bigger than 2. Vandalism and user already warned. Case closed. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{talk mod} 11:48, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Hold your horses Hagnat, I rule Vandalism on the grounds that this was a ban faith edit (To antagonise Iscariot) by a user who knows better.account hasn't actually done any trolling and I concur with Karek that Whether or not the edit was, in fact, vandalism there are no grounds for a perma ban because the account does not fit any of the criterion set out in the guidelines.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 08:31, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

OK, you all want to rule that the puppet's edits were vandalism, but want to leave the sock puppet active, and simply warn it (and hence it's puppeteer). That goes right against precedence (in all but popular users cases), but at least we should label it as such, so that it's clear who's making the comments... but we'll need a new template, because vandal alts all have banned in the template -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 11:27 21 January 2009 (BST)

I'm ruling that Conndraka's actions were vandalism because he should not better (hence making the edit bad faith) but the rules do not allow us to permaban an account unless it has made 3 vandal edits or is used for impersonation.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 18:44, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Karek and I never said the edits were vandalism. The feeling is that it is stupid and tacky, but not that the account creation or edits were against the rules. Don't say we called the edits something we clearly did not. Only the General voted both ways.--– Nubis ^NWO 01:47, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Doesn't Wikipedia have a template that says something along the lines of "This account is a confirmed alt account of X" and it designates that it is not breaking any rules and therefore doesn't need to be banned?--SirArgo ^Talk 00:30, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

We have one somewhere too, I think. I could swear I ran across something like that when I was working on the Altban template. --Karek^maps?! 11:59, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

This is shitting up admin pages. He won't accept that someone might know more than him even though he knows that that person had access to privileged information regarding the exact thing he's arguing about, he's trying to game the system in an attempt to back up his belief of a bias by intentionally misrepresenting the facts and then arguing ad nauseum when someone knows better.

Verdict	Vandalism
Action taken	Warning

Shitting up admin pages, with free and unneeded attacks to members of the admin staff, in disguise of a good faith action for the community, even after being asked not to revert these comments. This behaviour can be seen in other administration pages, as most members of the community are aware of (no links needed, then). Unlike other users who work together with the admin staff to help mantain the wiki, iscariot constantly work against the admin staff. Asking for punishment on the grounds of his constant attitude towards the admin staff, not only because of these edits. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{talk mod} 13:21, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

We won't even go into the wikigate-ness of wanting a user punished "on the grounds of his constant attitude towards the admin staff", was the clause that everyone has to be soopa-nice and give cookies and fluffy puppies to sysops a part of the civility policy? Because I don't remember reading that one.

Let's determine these edits correctly then, since Hagnat would mislead all of us for his own gain given the chance.

One bright sunny day, with the birds gaily singing in the trees, Iscariot was walking through the formerly lush and fertile gardens that were the administration pages (recent caretakers have unfortunately be deficient, we need a new team of gardeners) when he noticed a travesty. Speedy deletions that had received a keep had not been moved over to the main deletions queue. "Surely not!", thought Iscariot, but it was true. Iscariot consulted his Ladybird Book of UD Wiki Procedure and noticed the rules at the top of the page: "A Speedy Deletion may be circumvented by a single vote of Keep under the request. If this occurs, the system operator shall move the Speedy Deletion request to the Deletion Request Queue, where the normal rules for Deletion of the page shall apply." Iscariot lamented that this community approved process had not been followed, he checked the history to discover the culprit of this heinous act, seeing the Golden Boy of the Sysop Team, he knew that the misconduct case would be brushed aside even though a clear breach of procedure had occurred. So valiantly, with good faith brimming from his pores, he scooped up the errant cases and deposited them in the deletions queue.

Iscariot looked around the queue and saw that it had become customary for users other than sysops to leave a short message explaining to the community why these case had been moved.Trusting fully in the will of the community, he left a message on each case, explaining the situation. Along comes the arch-villain of the piece, Hagnat, and removes these comments for the dastardly purpose of leaving the community befuddled by the reasons that these cases have spontaneously appeared. Not to worry reader, for our knight of shining truth and justice, Iscariot, reappeared and explained to the arch-villain why these were needed. Good deeds done for the day he returned to his castle, for some troll had deposited a turd on his immaculate lawn.

But, lo! The Iscariot-Signal appeared in the sky again. This time the arch-villain had tried to besmirch his name by removing his signatures. This would leave no indication that the fair knight had performed these brave and selfless acts. Again the noble crusader undid the beast's work, content that all was right in Wiki-lot again.

Thwarted as he was, the arch-villain pulled out his final dishonourable weapon, a kangaroo court (well not really, there are no kangaroos in Wiki-lot, perhaps a wallaby court or a koala court?), and here fair reader doest our story pause, a cliffhanger. The deeds of the dashing knight at the will of denizens of the underworld. Is this the end for our valiant hero? Tune in next time.

Can anyone guess how the objectiveness and impartiality is going to work in this case? -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 13:43, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Hagnat You beat me to the proverbial punch. I was going to post this after much consideration. I'm not sure which case we should discuss, but I seriously think this is a problem that needs to be solved. Sysops only are free to comment on the page I created under my User space. Other comments will be considered vandalism. --– Nubis ^NWO 16:23, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

If you are adding to the current case against me I demand that all of that is brought and posted here so it can be entered into the appropriate archive. Placing a vandalism case in a userspace, particularly when the user in question has deletion rights over the page without any oversight is a recipe for historical revisionism and alteration of the case after the ruling. You want that entered? Bring it here into the appropriate domain so the community can see it as I demonstrate the massive holes in your 'case'. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 16:39, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

You assholes, grow some balls and get rid of this shithead. -- #99 ^DCC 06:13, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

I have no idea how I missed this case. =/ Anyway, I'm going to say my piece. Once upon a time (wasn't that long ago either) I personally found Iscariot to be a very useful contributor this community. Sure he went a little over the top here and there, but he made some very good points and what he had to say did contribute to what was going on. However, over the past few months this has changed dramatically. Instead of contributing to the community, Iscariot is doing nothing more than picking fights with the admin team, bulling other users and attempting to start flame wars over the simplest things. When he gets asked to stop, he cries foul and hides behind policy and precedent. He bans sysops from contacting him in a non-official way threatening a misconduct case if that happens (which I might add any have yet to materialise), every edit makes to an admin page attacks sysops for being stupid, lazy and nothing more than mindless idiots hiding behind their trusted user status. He brings up frivolous VB and Misconduct cases over the slightest thing, wasting both our time and the time of everyone else on the wiki having to read through them and then have them cluttering up the page.

As has been pointed out several times, we have no policy against being a dick. But we have a policy (several, actually) against vandalism. Vandalism is seen as a bad faith edit. Going by this case alone we have several bad faith attempts to stir up drama on the deletions page. This is (unless I'm very much mistaken) an Administration page. Checking the archives, we have several precedents for people receiving vandal escalations for shitting up admin pages with irrelevant and trollish comments. As a result, I'm going to take this precedent into account and, basing my decision entirely on this case, I'm going to rule Vandalism. -- Cheese 12:07, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism Don't shit up pages and make edits that you know are in bad faith. --– Nubis ^NWO 13:19, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

PS it says a deletion w/ a keep vote needs to be moved, but it doesn't say that we only have 5 seconds to comply, nor does it say that it can't remain "listed" on Speedy (perhaps to serve as an example or to tell users where the case has been moved to). It just says that we can't speedy delete the page after it gets a keep vote. If we wanted to keep archives of every case that was put on the speedy page (regardless of action taken on it or not) then we can.--– Nubis ^NWO 13:25, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Also, the pages were obviously safe from deletion by being moved to the served section. The only reason to move them over would be to vote them Delete (which would make moving them from SD pointless) or Keep (which we clearly were going to do anyway.) --– Nubis ^NWO 18:16, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

They should ban it anyway to prevent any more of these occurrences, proxy or no. I don't quite know why IP bans aren't standard for all permabans, to be honest. --Cyberbob 03:22, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Because some people who play UD may not have access to a computer at home, so they use it at the library, or at school. Also, some users that live together and run through the same IP address would have problems with that also. I think IP bans should happen if it's a recurring problem with the one IP, but with the whole community computers things in schools, universities and libraries etc it would be impossible.--CyberRead240 03:37, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

When banning a user, the mediawiki framework automatically bans any attempt to create an account with the same IP of the banned user. This IP ban only last for a few days, though, to avoid punishing shared computer users who had nothing to do with the case. Now, if you guys want to carry on this discussion, i suggest you to move it to the talk page, as this doesnt have any relevance - exclusive relevance - to this case --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{talk mod} 11:04, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Right, I'm now sober and have had a chance to think. Vandalism -- Cheese 10:17, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, that looks like a 48hr ban, then. Done -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 10:55 1 January 2009 (BST)

This is ridiculous. Vandalism is a bad-faith edit. Talking to someone in RL is not an "edit" and, thus, cannot be vandalism. Not Vandalism.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 21:34, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Here are the links to bad faith edits to increase the disruption caused by this vandal impersonation that he coordinated with his "friend".

1. Posts on the sock account talk page to make sure that bob sees it on RC.
2. Taunting bob once he sees it and reports it on A/VB.
3. He fails to see how it's obvious, despite knowing the intent of the vandal, by his own admission later.
4. Assures us it is no one he knows.

It was a coordinated act of vandalism, so the next escalation is a 2 day ban. I can't help it if he's a persistent vandal who's used up all his warnings -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 02:16 2 January 2009 (BST)

Ok, here is the response to the "bad faith edits". 1. That isn't an act of vandalism. 2. That isn't an act of Vandalism. 3. That isnt an act of vandalism, and 4. Surprise Surprise, isn't an act of vandalism. Nice to see I was vandal banned for something you couldn't prove, isn't it? That agenda flare up again? Good timing too, getting me out of the way so that you could demote Jed under everyones noses. You are pure dirt, boxy.--CyberRead240 04:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

He may be dirt, but you're full of shit. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 07:03, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Driving your buddies to make throw away accounts to make bad faith edits is as much vandalism as doing it yourself via proxy filters.--Karek^maps?! 21:43, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Not to mention it is an impersonation account of someone this user personally harasses. You can't believe that some random person made that account on their own.--– Nubis ^NWO 10:24, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
