Grandcountyhighschool.jpg

I noticed you removed the image Grandcountyhighschool.jpg, due to a lack of licensing information. I took that picture a couple years back while attending Grand County High School, and it is currently on their website, [1]. I figured it would probably be deleted eventually. Next time I am in Moab, Utah I will take a new picture of the building and release it into the public domain. Crashedata (talk) 19:23, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

User:Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles/List of unsolved problems in Egyptology

Hi Phil! I have had a username rename and still would like to work on this article for educational purposes. By chance could you please restore it along with its edits history to User:A Nobody/List of unsolved problems in Egyptology instead? Thanks! --A Nobody^{My talk} 15:07, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Y Done. PhilKnight (talk) 15:50, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank you! Sincerely, --A Nobody^{My talk} 16:54, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

TerrainView-Globe

Hi PhilKnight

One year ago you have deleted the TerrainView-Globe wiki page. Can you help me to undo the deletion? The company has been relaunched in August this year. http://www.viewtec.net

Thank you. Interactive3d 20:59, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion decline

I hope J.delanoy isn't insulted by it. -- IRP ☎ 21:17, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. PhilKnight (talk) 21:46, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

The Syphon Filter pages.

I'm afraid this has been happening on all of them except one or two. I suspect both I and Dibol will have a block for edit warring.Mr T (Based) (talk) 10:19, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

I've protected most of the articles. Obviously, I would suggest requesting page protection or dispute resolution instead of going over 3RR in future. PhilKnight (talk) 10:27, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Okay, thank you. They do seem like better ideas.Mr T (Based) (talk) 10:36, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Me and Seddon are hoping to pull you in for a bit... think you'll be on within the half hour? Xavexgoem (talk) 17:16, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Of course. PhilKnight (talk) 17:18, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Mediation Request

Hello Phil, I would like to request your mediation in the article Operation Blue Star at [[2]]. There has been a long discussion on how the "Allegations of Crimes/cruelty" can't be considered criticisms. Please go thorugh the discussion here and share your input. Many Thanks!

The great catsby character image

Was the rationale missing, or was there a particular reason for an I7?

I think there is an appropriate way to use this as "group" character images are preferable to individual character images. I'll just use the same justification as was used for the group pic for VG Cats WhisperToMe (talk) 03:55, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi WhisperToMe, the great catsby image had a summary, but no rationale. I've restored, and slightly expanded the VG cats image rationale. PhilKnight (talk) 13:38, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the support!

Thanks for supporting me at my successful Rfa! Hope to work with you in the future!--Aervanath lives in 17:16, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

I-P articles

Actually, I have now included sample diffs, as I was called away from the computer before I could add them before. Also, so far the two admins commenting have agreed with me. Is it possible your notification was hasty? Jayjg 19:16, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

The I-P ArbCom case didn't indicate that unacceptable conduct should be tolerated, provided it could be demonstrated there was unacceptable behavior on both sides. Also, suggesting that someone who claims to be a victim of stalking should be ignored because they have only reported the stalker is unacceptable. If you had started a new section for problems relating to other editors, that would obviously been entirely acceptable. PhilKnight (talk) 19:28, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

I don't think a single brief comment on WP:AE, which lacked supporting diffs for under an hour, and which was immediately concurred with by two uninvolved admins, constitutes in any way what the Arbcom had in mind when it discussed "unacceptable behavior". Jayjg 19:38, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

In the context of your latest off-topic posting at WP:AE, I'm not going to retract the notification. PhilKnight (talk) 19:45, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Considering the events discussed here, I am surprised that Jayjg had not been notified already. Mackan79 (talk) 20:58, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Looking at that discussion, I agree, he should have been notified earlier. PhilKnight (talk) 21:31, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Just letting you know that I posted some more stuff on the WP:AE case. Not saying you should immediately retract the warning to Jaakobou, but it will be much appreciated if you look at what I said and maybe further inspect the dispute going on at the article. In short, it now seems very clear that the issue is a content dispute between Tiamut and Nishidani on one side, and Jaakobou on the other. There are policy violations by both parties, especially Tiamut herself (who filed the WP:AE case in the first place). Please look into it! Cheers, Ynhockey ^(Talk) 21:18, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

I think Ryan's comments are very sensible, and represent the best way forward. PhilKnight (talk) 23:24, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Palestine-Israel articles

Hi there Phil. I was just wondering if you'd mind removing Jayjg from the list of editors notified about the P-I article arbitration? I think it would do a lot to reduce the heat here. He obviously already knows about it and the situation seems to have flared up over such a minor incident. Whilst Jayjg's words were strongly worded, I don't don't think they crept into incivility and he was just expressing his opinion in a meta discussion rather than any disruption on article talk pages. It would be much appreciated if you could take a look into the situation. I'm going to pop to bed soon, but in the morning when I'm fresh I'm going to set up a content RfC and start discussing the possiblities of informal mediation (I'll have a think of a suitable mediator - Wizardman or Seddon spring to mind off the top of my head). Best regards, ^{See the mess I've created or let's have banter} 23:37, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi Ryan, I agree with your approach regarding how to resolve this dispute, however, in the context of comments such as this I'm not going to remove Jayjg from the list. PhilKnight (talk) 23:44, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

Following an email discussion with Jayjg, I've removed him from the list. He has agreed not to be the first editor to respond to WP:AE reports that concern the I-P set of articles. PhilKnight (talk) 16:58, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Unblocking

Thanks for taking care of my unblocking Phil

Glad to help. PhilKnight (talk) 00:50, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

For reverting the bot - I wasn't aware of the rules about adding a link to a Facebook group? All my other edits should be "kosher" i think? I don't mind if the Facebook link has to be removed, but I hope all my other edits don't get lost because of it!--Howdypardner (talk) 16:30, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Glad to be of assistance. I've moved the link into citation format, which hopefully clears the problem. PhilKnight (talk) 16:38, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Again, many thanks! --Howdypardner (talk) 17:54, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
