SPI

Yesterday, User:Blablubbs had a discussion on my talk page:

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

---

Hello. I've noticed your comments here. To be frank, I think you're giving bad advice there. Checkusers will not ever run checks on IPs due to an SPI and encouraging a user to request CU, in this case, is a bad idea. Excessively pinging checkusers is also not necessary – if checks are needed, a clerk will endorse and a CU will have a look as soon as they find the time. I also want to note that letter codes for CU requests haven't been in use for a long, long time.

You created your account yesterday; I think it may be a little too early for you to comment on SPIs. I suggest focusing on mainspace edits until you have gained more experience. Best, Blablubbs|talk 19:28, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

@Blablubbs: Ok, I didn't know that. There was also no clerk there. AnotherEditor144 ^{talk contribs} 19:30, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Clerks will review the case in due time. There is no reason for non-clerks to clerk cases just because no clerk has chipped in yet.

On another note, have you had any previous accounts on Wikipedia? It's rather unusual for a one-day old account to be interested in SPI. Blablubbs|talk 19:33, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

@Blablubbs: No. I was reading SPIs extensively before I registered. AnotherEditor144 ^{talk contribs} 19:35, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

That's curious, because I'd assume that anyone who is interested in SPI would know that letter codes haven't been in use for around 10 years. Blablubbs|talk 19:39, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

@Blablubbs: There was no information about them, so I just assumed that they were only revealed to clerks. AnotherEditor144 ^{talk contribs} 19:41, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

For some reason, User:Martopa made a comment on my comment. Something about previous CU action. AnotherEditor144 ^{talk contribs} 19:38, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

David Stoll

Hi. I noticed that you recently reverted an edit the article on David Stoll by an unregistered editor. I've been struggling with this editor for more than a month. He or she has used three different IP addresses (see Special:Contributions/91.127.73.122, Special:Contributions/78.99.204.217, and Special:Contributions/95.102.36.149), while refusing to engage meaningfully in the talk page. This editor has simply reverted my work many times, which in some cases has meant that valid scholarly sources have been removed or garbled. The contents of this editor's work have improved a bit (he or she had started by adding categories for "Denialism", "Genocide Denial", and "Historical negationism", and even after giving up on that at various points has used references to support claims not reflected in the actual contents of those references). But, even with these slow improvements, I find the interaction with this editor exhausting, and their attitude is particularly problematic as it concerns the biography of a living person.

This is also the same person whose disruptive editing of Efraín Ríos Montt led to that article being semi-protected on 16 May 2021. After that, the disruption ceased and the editor seems to have mostly moved on to the article on David Stoll. Might a semi-protection of the Stoll article be in order? - Eb.hoop2 (talk) 11:15, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

@Eb.hoop2: Hello,

In fact, I absolutely do not know David Stoll and his theories, I just revert all edits of this anonymous IP on the various articles where he / she intervened because it's an IP of a banned user; it is in fact certainly a sockpuppet of SmalforaGiant, a Slovakian banned user interested in far-right topics.

This page like all those where he / she intervened should be semi-protected and the IPs blocked, I opened a request 3 days ago but unfortunately "checkusers" do not link anonymous IPs. I also ask for an intervention of JBW (an administrator) here, but they didn't respond. --Martopa (talk) 12:05, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. This is probably also the same person: Special:Contributions/95.102.164.221. - Eb.hoop2 (talk) 13:03, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

BLPs and height

Please undo your edits that added height to WP:BLPs without a source, and undo your edits that added height to WP:BLPs using WP:IMDB as a source. IMdB is not a reliable source. Schazjmd (talk) 16:02, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Martopa. I saw your note on my Talk Page about Wikipedia articles of biographies of living persons that contain the "height" parameter. I refer you to the instructions for Template:Infobox person, which state that height should only be included "If person was notable for their height, or if height is relevant." Based on these instructions, it sounds like the examples you cite should have "height" removed from their info boxes, although I have not looked at them.

December 2021

Hi Martopa! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Sweden Democrats that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. TylerBurden (talk) 12:23, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

@TylerBurden: There's no content dispute and controversies about this category, in fact the Category:Right-wing parties in Europe was added on 2 March 2021 by an anonymous IP user at a time where Category:Right-wing parties in Sweden doesn't exist (@Storm598: create it on 9 December 2021, so by default the IP added Category:Right-wing parties in Europe because there wasn't a specific category "Right-wing parties in Sweden" at this moment). Currently, apart you, no one oppose this inclusion. Thank you for your understanding. --Martopa (talk) 13:08, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

You are attempting to change the article, and I'm opposed to your change. That's a dispute and therefore you shouldn't have marked your edit as minor. Get consensus in the talk page of the article and stop edit warring. As for the change itself, I don't see why you are placing so much weight on the category being added by an IP, it literally doesn't matter. The category is appropriate and rather than removing it you should simply add the specific Sweden one. --TylerBurden (talk) 13:19, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

Sockpuppet tags

Please stop adding sockpuppet tags to accounts and just let the CUs and SPI clerks deal with them. Some of yours are just incorrect, like [1] -- that wasn't a {{checkuserblock}}. As for the others, the blocking CU wrote Blocked, no tags.. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 15:19, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

@ProcrastinatingReader: There is no obvious error for Miacek: for example, Casaponda2 has been blocked for persistent disruptive editing (WP:NOTHERE), nevertheless their user page contains sockpuppet tags (the case of Miacek is similar to the one cited, a block evasion everytime). There is certainly a lack of formal proof, because of the age of the data (Miacek has been blocked 3 years ago). For the 2 others, there seems to be a block evasion and abuse of multiple accounts + a causality link, as indicated in this edit summary. --Martopa (talk) 15:24, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

+ in Estonian Wikipedia (Miacek's home Wiki), Miacek has been blocked for an expiration time of indefinite for sockpuppetry. This user is not at their first attempt. --Martopa (talk) 15:27, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
