Verdict	Vandalism
Action taken	48 Hour

Breaking one of the terms of his ruling. --Haliman - Talk 00:36, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

[1], [2], [3]

If we hadn't have been more lenient on his Arbies ruling in the first place, he could have been month banned by now, methinks. I guess it doesn't help that the comments were pretty rubbish (alongside being downright wrong) also. Vandalism --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:40, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - breaking a clearly understood, and agreed upon, arbitration ruling (not for the first time, by a long shot). He has a warning and a 24hr ban still on his record (not enough edits since his last deescalation). The arbitration policy says As a note, by requesting an Arbitration, all parties are thus obliged to accept the outcome of the Arbitration. Not doing will be considered Vandalism, and such vandalism attempts will be treated as if the vandal has already received two warnings.. So it looks to me like a 48hr ban is the next escalation, given that warnings arn't given for arbies violations -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 01:42 29 November 2009 (BST)

Banned for 48. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 02:34, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

For creating this page, and striking out the Israel Building to rename it the Palestine building. I reverted it. --Haliman - Talk 22:56, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

That's some serious long-term planning. He's been maintaining that page for eleven months. Plus the article shows the name changing back and forth, obviously a simple joke. This isn't vandalism. 23:02, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm happy to leave it like that given this case's outcome counts as a soft warning. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:31, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Verdict	Not Vandalism
Action taken	{{{2}}}

For wiping a comment of mine from A/D. When I challenged him on it on his talk page (I half-suspected edit conflict shenanigans) he said it had to be done in order to prevent a case being brought against him. That's not good enough, I'm afraid - if he was so paranoid about cases and whatnot he should have simply asked me to remove it. Cyberbob  Talk  16:45, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

By removing the strike it would have left Cyberbob's comment nonsensical. There is no sense to be found in "I wanted to do that" in response to a keep vote with nothing further from Cheese present. I had to remove the comment to prevent myself indirectly impersonating Cyberbob. Standard precedent is that all subsequent replies must be removed if the beginning is removed to prevent impersonation, removing Cheese's meant I had to remove Bob's. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 16:50, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

I already covered this - you pretty obviously didn't read the post you're ostensibly replying to (going by the indentation). You should have asked me to remove it instead of taking it upon yourself. If I'd refused that still would not have justified deleting the post, but it would have provided a good defence against the case that would never have been made anyway you paranoid twat. Cyberbob  Talk  16:53, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

I need not ask your permission to declutter a page, the beginning of your conversation was removed by my legal act of removing the strike, preventing myself from impersonating you is an act of good faith. Weren't you soft-warned about using borderline and contentious cases against users you had personal disagreements with? -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 16:58, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

You do need ask my permission to declutter a page if said decluttering involves the outright deletion of one of my posts. I'm sorry that you can't quite seem to grasp one of the most fundamental forms of vandalism on any wiki. Cyberbob  Talk  16:59, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Not vandalism - it was a nothing comment, in reply to something that was going to be removed as soon as Iscariot noticed he hadn't signed. It would have made no sense to leave it there, while removing the strike notice. Good faith removal -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 17:09 28 November 2009 (BST)

Whose place is it to decide whether or not a comment makes "no sense" other than its author? Cyberbob  Talk  17:11, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Verdict	Vandalism
Action taken	Week Ban

For creating this page in bad faith in order to influence user opinion on this scheduled deletion. By creating this page, Iscariot has skewed the actual level of unused images which misleads users voting on the proposal and effect their vote accordingly. I request immediate deletion of this page in order to allow this community vote to proceed unhindered and an escalation for Iscariot to show that malicious, manipulating behaviour such as this will not be tolerated. -- Cheese 16:15, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Image arks have always been permitted to save images from deletion. The page is in my user space where I am allowed to store any material I like for potential future use. The number of unused images in the queue will in no way 'skew' the result of the vote in the same way that placing an uploaded image immediately on a page will. This is a bad faith case designed to further an agenda. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 16:18, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Such a good argument... if only you hadn't been trying to use the size of the queue as an argument against the proposal before.......... Cyberbob  Talk  16:21, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

If it was done just to save images, maybe, but your discussion on A/D/S shows that you were making some [chickenshit] point about there not being any images in unused images... which was only true because you went out of your way to put them all in this brand new image archive. Manipulation, bad faith, chickenshit point anyway... vandalism -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 16:22 28 November 2009 (BST)

I have a clear history of being an inclusionist and preventing deletion on A/D, this is the natural extension. However I shouldn't expect any different from the person wanting to further distort my vandal history as he has previously. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 16:26, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

And the edit histories are clear as well. You created this page and then ambushed cyberbob with this edit that was only true because of your manipulation -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 16:31 28 November 2009 (BST)

Vandalism Cyberbob  Talk  16:16, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Aren't you the one always saying that DDR shouldn't vote on vandalism cases where he has a vested interest? Hypocrite. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 16:22, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

I have no personal vested interest in the success or failure of the proposal. I'm just trying to do what I think's best for the wiki - if that's a "vested interest" then you should probably accuse everyone except yourself of it. Cyberbob  Talk  16:27, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Got a frog in your throat? Cyberbob  Talk  04:15, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Not vandalism because I like some of the images, especially the fire zombies one, and I'd have never found it if he hadn't put it there.-- SA 19:14, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

That's hardly an objective reason. -- Cheese 19:51, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

He's boned in this case anyway right? It's not like it matters. :) -- SA 19:55, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Oh! I've got something! This edit warns that he was about to do something to fix the problem. Which was before the snarky comments of cyberbob being wrong and shit. Is my vote more valid now?-- SA 20:00, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

...So he warned us he was going to do it, so it isn't vandalism? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:25, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm not answering that. It's a trick question. >:/ But my vote is more objective now like cheese wanted! :B -- SA 01:17, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - As explained to him on IRC. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:21, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay, since a vote is potentially hanging in the balance of Iscariot's page, I'm ruling vandalism, striking Izzy's week ban as per descalation, deleting the page (as vandalism), and then banning him for a week. As per this discussion which happened some months ago. Izzy served 6 days of ban time that he shouldn't have, so to make up for this, this ban will be recorded as a Week Ban but in practice he will be banned for a day. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 01:09, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Verdict	Not Vandalism
Action taken	{{{2}}}

For breaking what I feel is the spirit of the arbitration ruling enacted here. I feel that the ruling was to cut down on hostilities between the two parties, and A11an0n's policy document here is not only breaking the spirit by being hostile to TZH, is also trying to bypass the arbitration ruling. If A11an0n wanted to appeal the arbitrator's decision, he is quite able to do so, and could ask Izzy how to do it, or anyone else. But to just go and make a policy like that is bad-faith being disguised as a good faith action.-- SA 00:40, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

"make a policy like that is bad-faith being disguised as a good faith action.". Wanna bring Izzy forward too then? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:49, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I would if izzy also was breaking an arbitration ruling.-- SA 00:58, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Bad faith policies are vandalism in their own rights, IIRC. Cyberbob  Talk  01:02, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I couldn't remember if it was, so I went with the arbies bit instead.-- SA 01:04, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism - If only he hadn't been dumb enough to actually link to TZH's page he might have gotten away with it. Oh well. Cyberbob  Talk  01:02, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Not Vandalism - If everyone was agreeing with his policy, would we be putting him up? Don't censor butthurt vendettas, good has come out of them in the past. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 01:10, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Firstly, the quality of the policy has zero to do with anything - the fact that he directly addresses TZH in a hostile fashion is the only thing pertinent to this case. Secondly, what good? Cyberbob  Talk  01:13, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Firstly, the fact he addressed TZH has zero to do with anything- would you have ruled not vandalism if they weren't mentioned, despite the fact that his intent would have been just as clear? Secondly: Scheduleds, A/REs, The A/VB "Box" are a few that come off the top of my head. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 01:33, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

"Firstly, the fact he addressed TZH has zero to do with anything" Arbitration.-- SA 01:54, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I mean Cyberbob is practically ruling on the sole fact that he actually mentioned TZH, implying that it wouldn't have been vandalism if he hadn't. Come on. Does this mean Izzy didn't do vandalism in this because he didn't specifically mention Boxy's name? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 01:58, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I wasn't around for it and don't feel the need to say my opinion on that case, because it doesn't have much to do with this case. Because, yet again, there is one big difference. Arbitration.-- SA 02:01, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

And considering A/PD > A/A, I consider what he did to be quite clever and since it needs vast majority support to succeed as Wiki Policy, one would assume that if he succeeded it would deserve to override the Arbies case. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 02:13, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

So, what you're saying is that you want people to be able to use policy discussion as a way to get around arbies, and make it to where they can easily puppet through what they want done because we don't strike meat puppetry? As CB "your dum" -- SA 02:16, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I never said that. If A11an0n was anywhere near as capable at gaming the rules as it would take to meatpuppet a policy, he would have had a random ally feign "no knowledge" of him or Grohl to become Arbitratot and rigg the entire A/A case anyway. As A11an0n attempted to make a policy that affects the information flow of the whole wiki, if the whole wiki passes it for that reason, it has every right to override the ruling of the recent A/A case. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 03:15, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Not vandalism - The arbitration case said nothing about anywhere on the wiki except for the user talk pages and TZH group space. A11an0n needs to get the fact that others will post things from their POV on their pages. And unless we're going to become "the Truth Police" (despite the problems involved in determining the "Truth" in this type of environment), we have to allow quite a bit of latitude to them. There are already limits to what you can do on group pages, however, he's getting a clear message from the community on that policy talk page as to how happy the majority is with the situation as is. He has a problem, he is suggesting a fix via the policy page, it will be rejected... but he still has a right to try to change the system that "let him down" -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 02:54 26 November 2009 (BST)

Not Vandalism Look at his contributions, he's got a massive axe to grind, and has so far in deletions, vandal banning, arbitration and policy discussion. We can put up with this until he uses up all avenues open to him. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 09:36, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

The thing is, we shouldn't. It sets a bad precedent. Whats the point of arbitration if people who don't like the ruling can go around forum shopping until they find a way to squirm by it?-- SA 09:59, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Because the only person they hurt is themselves. As soon as the user realises that the more he responds, the more ammunition TZH have, the better. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 10:06, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

No, Censoring things that we choose to remove, prematurely, rather than the community, sets a bad precedent. A horrible precedent. I still propose; would you have put this case forward if the 10 people that put the A/PD down on the talk page had actually supported it blindly? Otherwise, listen to Boxy. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 13:54, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

J3D (talk | contribs | logs | block | IP Check | vndl data | discuss)

Verdict	Vandalism
Action taken	Warning

For practically baiting Boxy into a misconduct case without any perceivable desire to have his data actually struck.

This case was brought after he "asked" (threatened) Boxy into striking him as per guidelines. He didn't ask anyone else, just Boxy, and he said Boxy would face A/M over it if he didn't. Responding aggressively to the moronic threat, J3D put Box up after 4 minutes. He didn't even wait to see if Boxy was going to stand by his ambiguous reply. 30 minutes later, it was easily struck as one would expect, and J3D happily retracts the case.

We don't use A/M just to get such petty things done and it's a waste of the system and makes a mockery of of the red tape we already have in place- If he really wanted the striking J3D could have easily just have spammed several sysop talk pages, including Kevan like he did yesterday, when he didn't even qualify for descalation at the time. I'm sick of his jump-the-gun fire-at-will attitude towards sysops kissing his feet and licking his dick within minutes of his whim.

The last case which J3D got escalated for this crap.

--DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:44, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Yeah i can't think of one reason why i chose boxy....oh wait, according to RC he was the only active op!!! And as i clearly explained on the a/m case, i am sick and tired of sysops consistently dragging the chain with regards to my strikings and making as much debacle out of the thing as possible. I wanted it done while i was active and at the time i thought i was only going to briefly active (then i found out this net is actually functioning now and entirely free :D). As you are well aware ddr i have been repeatedly fucked over by ops regarding striking so either unprotect that page and let me do my own striking or accept that i will be aggressive in expecting that sysops strike while i'm online to supervise. xoxo 10:16, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

RL doesn't command what happens on udwiki- your 4 minutes on a shifty internet connection may seem precious there, but it doesn't mean that 4 minutes on here is an appropriate timeframe to threaten a sysop with A/M to have your way. As I said before, you should have gone for the whole shebang and just spammed every Aus Sysop- there are plenty to go around, and given that the only reason we hadn't struck you already was those 3 edits; it wouldn't have been too difficult to imagine it being done. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 10:22, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Last time i 'imagined' having it done it wasn't, which in the end resulting in me missing my next striking by a matter of days and thus coping a ban over a warning, while yes you can say i just shouldn't have vandalised or whatever - sysop laziness or whatever you want to call it meant i coped an extra escalation when sufficient time since my past vandalism had passed for a striking. Eh, theres nothing more to say on this really. Although i'm surprised by how bob voted and how clear and articulate his justification was. xoxo 09:24, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Yes it does give the right to users to strike vouches/againsts/whatevers after the two-week expiry date (actually it doesn't as that right always existed just as it does with unsigned votes on things), and I don't really see what him having been "told" has any bearing on anything given that you don't have any authority to pass that kind of judgement.

While looking at D.o.W., a group page recently put up for deletion by the above user, Matt, I checked who originally created the page which led to User:XxCannon_FodderxX. When I checked his page history I stumbled on this little gem. I'm not sure what the policy on dated vandalism is, because in three days it will be exactly a year ago since this edit was made, but it is vandalism nonetheless. --Thadeous Oakley 18:17, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

He does claim that a character by that name is an alt he doesn't use. Lets hear what else has to be said, eh?-- SA 19:07, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

He's CannonFodder? It would have helped allot if he mentioned he was the author at Deletions, it would be a speedy, rather then all those keep votes. --Thadeous Oakley 19:30, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

You want to escalate me for linking one of my characters to the game's wiki? Have I got that right? People get to be escalated now for doing what has been done for years?

If I wanted to make a point I'd make a google bomb to the specific edit that details this supposed person's identity. I say supposed because you haven't even confirmed that this person is who he says he is, have you? Nope, you just jumped on here created a case (wrongly I might add) in a desperate attempt to have me escalated.

Yeah, see hags, that's what should be done if you have a problem with this. Anyway, like I said, it's in-game, we can't really do anything about it as that isn't exactly our jurisdiction. So I'm going with nv here. Anyone agree?-- SA 01:31, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

I will if we change Iscariot's link reference to "name withheld" as per all the others... Just because that is the bad faith action at hand here, it isn't the creation of the account, which is beyond our control, but the instance where he used it with the intent to hurt the user.

You'll try and escalate me for creating a group page for a group that appears on the stats page? Good luck with that.

I don't think you should be ruling on this case given your participation in his ridicule.

Although I consider this vandalism, in that Dawgjz went through blanking whole sentences to remove his name, thereby changing what people said in fairly major ways, I have gone through the pages and replaced the name with [name removed] in order to remove personal information that probably should never have been posted in the first place -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 12:30 3 November 2009 (BST)

Verdict	Not Vandalism
Action taken	None required

For his last edit to this page. he is not a member of The Dead Bunnies and has no business whatsoever editing our page under any circumstances. In fact, due to his past trolling and abuse he has officially been asked to never even post on our talk page. I would think it would be clear from that that he should also not edit our main page. If we feel that someone has vandalized our page we will handle the problem ourselves. Due to his repeated abuse and trolling towards our group we ask that action be taken. --M4rduK 19:01, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

I loled. I try to help you guys and you stab me in the back. Anyone can obviously see that I was reverting the vandalism. If what I did was vandalism, why haven't you reverted it back to the last edit? (Which is vandalism, btw) --Haliman - Talk 19:34, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Not Vandalism - [4]. He was just reverting Jason's edits, which any wiki user could see as an unwanted change to your page. He was just trying to help out, if you don't like what he did, revert it to Jason's version.

Basically, if you want Haliman to be prohibited from touching your pages, go to A/A. Otherwise, vandal cases like this won't slide and your asking of him to stay away from your group pages has no basis in administrative actions. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 23:52, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Actually, they kind of can ask him to stay off of their group main page, because unless he's editing the NPOV bit at the top or fixing vandalism, he isn't really allowed to touch it, group ownership rights and all. They don't have to go to Arbies to get him to stay away from their main page, only the talk page. And yes, they can make this case and it will "slide" because they obviously did not like the edit to their group page, and thought it was vandalism. None the less, I'm ruling NV. He tried to help, if they don't like it, then Haliman just needs to let it sit next time. K everyone?-- SA 00:14, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Just to expand on what SA is articulating, as a group page the Bunnies have ownership rights over it and can control who can edit there or not and the content of those edits. Although this is rightly not vandalism due to lack of bad faith, it is clear that the Dead Bunnies (page owners) are happy for Stafam to make whatever edits he wants to their page. Stafam could turn it into a parody page that makes the Bunnies look like Care Bears in trenchcoats if he wants, because he has been given permission to edit that page, provided the Bunnies are happy, Stafam's not committing vandalism. Given how the group's sense of humour in the past has been displayed it would be better for Haliman and others just to leave the page alone rather than trying to second guess what is vandalism and what is a provocative but allowed edit. If vandalism actually occurs, I'm sure a bunny will start a case here. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 00:21, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

What I was thinking. Hence why I'm pursuing Murduck about Stafam's initial edits, I knew having Bob insta-warn people would come to this eventually. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:38, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Forget Arbies. I'm done trying to play nice with the Bunnies. --Haliman - Talk 00:57, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm hoping that isn't you saying you're going to antagonize the bunnies. I'd much rather you just left them alone entirely, and vice-versa.-- SA 00:59, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Hardly. I meant I'm done trying to help them. --Haliman - Talk 01:11, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

'kay. Good.-- SA 01:30, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

No matter what is vandalism and what isn't, I'd rather have Jason edit our page than to have Haliman's peanut butter hands on it any day. Due to his history with us he should have known better than to touch it. If Jason gets a warning for editing a page that *he was at least associated with at some point* then Halitard deserves the same. Either they both deserve a warning or neither. We consider any editing or posting on our pages by Haliman to be malicious. --M4rduK 15:15, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

From here, you will notice that a few thing that arn't vandalism are listed... they are: "an unwanted edit to any page, an edit that adds information arising from a misunderstanding, an edit that improves the page from a user you don't like". Policy states quite clearly that your dislike Haliman is not a reason to have him treated differently than anyone else (unless you have an arbitration ruling covering this), and given that he obviously believed that the edit was vandalism, it was clearly done in good faith, and hence not vandalism. Now that he knows that you are willing to tolerate vandalism of your group page by Jason, a repeated revert may be viewed differently -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 08:01 4 November 2009 (BST)
