Unreferenced BLPs
[edit] Hello JackofDiamonds1! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current 735 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

WikiProject Economics census
[edit]Hello there. Sorry to bother you, but you are (titularly at least) a member of WP:WikiProject Economics, as defined by this category. If you don't know me, I'm a Wikipedia administrator, but an unqualified economist. I enjoy writing about economics, but I'm not very good at it, which is why I would like to support in any way I can the strong body of economists here on Wikipedia. I'm only bothering you because you are probably one of them. Together, I'd like us to establish the future direction of WikiProject Economics, but first, we need to know who we've got to help.
Whatever your area of expertise or level of qualification, if you're interested in helping with the WikiProject (even if only as part of a larger commitment to this wonderful online encyclopedia of ours), would you mind adding your signature to this page? It only takes a second. Thank you.
Message delivered on behalf of User:Jarry1250 by LivingBot.
- Firstly, thank you for signing the census, and an apology if you are one of those editors who dislike posts such as this one for messaging you again in this way. I've now got myself organised and you can opt-out of any future communication at WP:WikiProject Economics/Newsletter. Just remove your name and you won't be bothered again.
- Secondly, and most importantly, I would like to invite your comments on the census talk page about the project as a whole. I've given my own personal opinion on a range of topics, but my babbling is essentially worthless without your thoughts - I can't believe for one moment that everyone agrees with me in the slightest! :)
- All your comments are welcomed. Thanks, - Jarry1250 [Humorous? Discuss.] 17:53, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

London Wikimedia Fundraiser
[edit]Good evening! This is a friendly message from Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry, inviting you to the London Wikimedia Fundraising party on 19th December 2010, in approximately one week. This party is being held at an artistic London venue with room for approximately 300 people, and is being funded by Ed Saperia, a non-Wikipedian who has a reputation for holding exclusive events all over London. This year, he wants to help Wikipedia, and is subsidising a charity event for us. We're keen to get as many Wikimedians coming as possible, and we already have approximately 200 guests, including members of the press, and some mystery guests! More details can be found at http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/London - expect an Eigenharp, a mulled wine hot tub, a free hog roast, a haybale amphitheatre and more. If you're interested in coming - and we'd love to have you - please go to the ten.wikipedia page and follow the link to the Facebook event. Signing up on Facebook will add you to the party guestlist. Entry fee is a heavily subsidised £5 and entry is restricted to over 18s. It promises to be a 10th birthday party to remember! If you have any questions, please email me at chasemewiki at gmail.com.
Hope we'll see you there, (and apologies for the talk page spam) - Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (talk) 23:06, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Aliya Mustafina shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Mbinebri talk ← 19:44, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

JackofDiamonds1 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
The blocking message was added by a biased user with conflicting point of view - Mbinebri. He subsequently deleted the same message from his page (traceable in "view history"), in breach of Wikipedia policy. Aforementioned user has violated the editing rules.JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 21:29, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
Decline reason:
To assert that someone violated the policies, one has to know them themselves. Anyway, we don't fulfill unblock requests discussing someone other than the blockee, and feeling that you're right does not exempt you from edit warring. Max Semenik (talk) 21:38, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
OK, I agree with the argument. Edit warring was indeed in place. However, I want a fair treatment with the other party, who avoided blocking by simply deleting the notice from his page. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 21:49, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
- Nope, GreatOrangePumpkin was blocked just like you. Max Semenik (talk) 23:49, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
- I was talking about User:Mbinebri who started the edit warring and violated the rule on 14-15 August. He has also deleted the blocking message from his talk page which is a second breach of Wikipedia guidelines. Regards. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 00:34, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
- Simply stop pushing your POV and instead follow the guidelines and policies. As was clearly stated, only citizenship should be included in the lead. Please accept this. Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 11:45, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

JackofDiamonds1 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I object for the following reasons: 1) I only cut back 2 times so haven't broken the 3-edit rule; 2) My edit has not caused disruption to the article - I never deleted anything, only added the information about Dostoevsky's family; 3) I properly notified the other party. Regards, JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 18:15, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
Decline reason:
- I'm sorry to see that you are blocked for edit warring. Many users find themselves confused as to why they were blocked in such a situation as they believed they were acting in the best interest of Wikipedia. What it is important for you to understand is that as far as the edit warring policy is concerned there is no right and wrong in an edit war. Anyone who edit wars is wrong and is blocked to prevent the disruption from continuing. There are very few exceptions, such as reverting blatant vandalism, which is not the case here. We don't allow edit warring because it never helps resolve an issue, and it always makes it worse.
- Mark disputed statements or, if needed, the entire page with appropriate tags
- Initiate discussion on the talk page (note that edit summaries are not a substitute for actual discussion)
- If that does not rectify the issue seek page protection and/or dispute resolution as needed.
- If you follow these simple steps instead of edit warring you will find it is actually relatively easy to avoid edit warring and getting blocked for it.
Please note as well that WP:3RR is not an entitletment, merely a bright-line application of the edit warring policy. You do not have to breach it to be blocked for edit warring. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:28, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
{{Unblock on hold | 1=blocking administrator | 2=The original administrator based the decision on the combination of "2 reverts" and "not notifying the other party". It turned out that he was mistaken and I actually did notify the other party. Therefore, only 2 reverts may not be enough for the blocking Regards,JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 18:41, 4 September 2012 (UTC) | 3=I will notify the blocking admin; perhaps a reduction in block length may be warranted. Please also see the last paragraph of the decline message above: 3RR is not an entitlement; you can still be edit warring with less than three reverts. Following WP:BRD is always a good idea. ~Amatulić (talk) 19:41, 4 September 2012 (UTC)}}
- I am amenable to reducing the length, on one condition: that you do not reinsert the content unilaterally and instead seek a discussion with the article's main contributors (on the talk page). Do you promise to do this? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:40, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
- I am contesting the blocking in the first place: there were two legitimate edits, so what is the reason for blocking anyway? JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 23:55, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
- That was my addition to the article: "The Dostoevsky noble family is descended from the ancient Moscow Rtischev line, which became known as Dostoevsky after being granted the town of Dostoevo near Pinsk (now Belarus) in 1506.[1]" This statement is not contested by anyone and is a well-known fact. The other user deleted it for unspecified reason and I reverted it back, considering it as vandalism. So I don't see any reason for blocking in the first place. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 00:03, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- It takes two to tango. Amatulic gave some good advice: BRD. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:26, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- OK, thanks for this piece. But what I am saying - there is no reason for blocking in this particular situation. Although I understand the need for better communication with other editors. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 01:07, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- It was still edit warring. I will trim the block to 48 hours, but if the two of you continue edit warring then the next one will be a lot longer. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:13, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- It wasn't edit warring from my side. Would you please look at the history of the article? I thought that the other user's actions are vandalism and reverted it only ONCE. That do not constitute any breach from my side whatsoever! I have also added the referenced information and was not engaged in edit warring (e.g. I didn't dispute with the other party and didn't add arguable information). I request the blocking to be annulled immediately, otherwise I will have to question your legitimacy as there is no case here. I was improving and enriching the article as that's what we do in Wikipedia. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 01:39, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- When you saw that it was causing an edit war, you could have begun posting on the talk page; issues of undue weight and the like are better discussed by interested editors rather than being forced — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:03, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- violating 3RR, for the record, is automatically an edit war, but it's not the only way to edit war. I'd suggest that instead of saying 'I'm right and you're wrong, and if you don't realise that it makes you wronger', you take this opportunity to take a deep breath, read up on policies and guidelines, maybe work on a few new articles in userspace, and come back refreshed and recharged. - The Bushranger One ping only 03:35, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- One revert is not an edit war either. As I said, it was a prevention of vandalism. I did not breach any rules, please lift the blocking ASAP. I am also informing you that I will complain about your administration as I was unduly barred from editing for some time already. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 12:12, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- This was vandalism? Someone reverting uncited, undue, information is what you consider vandalism? My... This is exactly why the two of you should have gone straight to the article's talk page. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:18, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- It was cited - the reference is given to the http://www.russiannobility.org/ and the information is available on the front page. I repeat, I reverted it 1 time and did not try to do add this again. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 12:24, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- The final sentence was not cited, and I don't know if russiannobility.org is a RS. Either way, it is not vandalism to have either added or removed it. If you are unblocked, do you agree to follow BRD to the letter? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:39, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- I agree, although I reserve the right to add the relevant, unarguable, properly referenced information without prior consultations. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 23:02, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- And if reverted? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:57, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- If reverted for a valid reason, I am not adding it again and move to the talk page instead. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 10:29, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
- That was my addition to the article: "The Dostoevsky noble family is descended from the ancient Moscow Rtischev line, which became known as Dostoevsky after being granted the town of Dostoevo near Pinsk (now Belarus) in 1506.[1]" This statement is not contested by anyone and is a well-known fact. The other user deleted it for unspecified reason and I reverted it back, considering it as vandalism. So I don't see any reason for blocking in the first place. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 00:03, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- I am contesting the blocking in the first place: there were two legitimate edits, so what is the reason for blocking anyway? JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 23:55, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
Fair enough, but please don't call something vandalism when it doesn't fall under the definition. The reduced block timed out, so you're free to edit. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:36, 6 September 2012 (UTC)r
- So I assume I can add referenced information now to the article about Dostoyevsky? JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 16:51, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, but hopefully neither of you will edit war. I'd suggest keeping the family history separate and discuss it on the talk page before adding it to the main article. If there is enough information on his family, something like Family of Fyodor Dostoyevsky may be in order. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:11, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
- If you look closer to the issue, I think we have a clear example of Wikipedia:Ownership of articles. Somebody needs to persuade the other guy not to feel possessive about the article and let others implement the changes. My other suggestion is to keep it the name as Dostoevsky as main version, I left a note about it on the talk page. JackofDiamonds1 (talk) 00:02, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
- As noted below, a main issue with the information is that its reference is not reliable. I doubt Pumpkin would have issues with solidly-referenced additions which do not give undue weight to a certain aspect of the topic. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:03, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
[edit]Hi Jack, I reverted your addition of the Russian Nobility site because it doesn't stand up as a reliable source. Dostoyevsky is currently under GA nomination which requires robust cites such as biographies or journals. I hope that makes sense. Discussing changes on an article talk page is a good way of avoiding edit wars, by the way. Best wishes and happy editing. Span (talk) 01:07, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
Seriously?
[edit]You really thought if you just waited awhile you could start adding Tatar to the lead in Aliya Mustafina again? You abandoned your own dispute resolution when it didn't go your way and you ignored my response on the talk page from awhile ago. No one agrees with you. Give it up, or else the article will probably just get locked again. Mbinebri talk ← 01:26, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Tatars
[edit]I wanted to let you know that I'm awaiting your response in the talk page of that article. --Mttll (talk) 08:49, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
Sources describe Tatars like this:
Definition of TATAR: 1. a member of any of a group of Turkic peoples found mainly in the Tatar Republic of Russia and parts of Siberia and central Asia 2. any of the Turkic languages spoken by the Tatar peoples (Merriam-Webster)
Definition of Tatar 1. a member of a Turkic people living in Tatarstan and various other parts of Russia and Ukraine. They are the descendants of the Tartars who ruled central Asia in the 14th century. 2. the Turkic language of the Tatars, with about 6 million speakers. (Oxford Dictionaries)
I suggest you stop your attempt at WP:OR against the uniform position of perfectly reliable sources on this matter. --Mttll (talk) 22:57, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Requesting Guidance
[edit]Hello. I'm new to the wiki community and would like to start working on editing the Property Insurance page with the help and collaboration of more experienced contributors from Project Finance Participants. There is also a recommendation the Chartis article be merged with AIG's page. I think the Property Insurance page could be strengthened with parts of AIG's page since it shows how current events and emerging trends effect it's regulation by the government. Hurricane Sandy and updated payouts of the WTC are not on the Property Insurance page either - which to me seem to be relevant. Do you think adding more information would be beneficial to the Property Insurance page? If so would you be interested in collaborating what facts should be included? Any response would be kindly appreciated. Thank you.Lgkkitkat (talk) 16:45, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Request for usurpation
[edit]Hello, JackofDiamonds1. A request has been made via Wikipedia:Changing username (or meta:SRUC) to usurp, or "take over", your username because another user would like to use it to edit. The changing username guideline allows a username that is not being actively used to be usurped if the user is given an opportunity to object and does not do so.
If you do not object to being renamed to a new username in order for another user to use the name you currently have, please log in and post a reply here saying so (you may also tell us what username you would like to be renamed to, or we will provide you with a generic one) or use Special:GlobalRenameRequest.
If you do nothing: the request may be filled shortly, and your account will be moved to a generic username. You may request that it be moved to a new username of your choice at any time.
