Semi-protection of Q15925869

Reason: Excessive spam. --SCP-2000 (talk) 13:09, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done for 6 months. Thank you for reporting. --Sotiale (talk) 13:18, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Report concerning MarioMiller90

MarioMiller90 (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)) — Reasons: Vandalism--Trade (talk) 14:53, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it is LaraLili2000. Blocked by Bovlb and locked by me. --Sotiale (talk) 15:07, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
How did you knew it was LaraLili2000?--Trade (talk) 15:11, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This thread was handled by Bovlb, so I'll let you know through your talkpage. --Sotiale (talk) 15:16, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done Blocked indefinitely. I can't shake the sense that they are trying to do something useful, but are just hopelessly confused about how to do it. Unfortunately, if they cannot stop making disruptive edits, and they will not respond to talk page messages, then we are left with no choice.  Bovlb (talk) 15:08, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I also need to thank Ytha67 for bringing his to my attenion. @Ytha67:--Trade (talk) 15:14, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the opinions, this user follows a specific pattern in his contributions, adds the same contents (Marina d'Or, Place of burial French Pantheon of Mercy, and unreal causes of death). I check deaths on eswiki, that's why I see it, thank you very much for the help, greetings, --Ytha67 (talk) 15:21, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think I have fixed up today's damage. I found one set of edits (Jaclyn Linetsky (Q454059)) that appeared to be correct, but most of them were simply unverifiable. We seem to have a lot of items on Spanish voice actors that are hard to find sources for. Does anyone else feel that we're involved in a bizarre publicity stunt for Marina d'Or (Q3490113)?

Report concerning User:Penaber49

Penaber49 (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)) — Reasons: Constantly vandalising Turkey-related items.(1, 2, 3 etc.) BSRF 💬 17:00, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a reason why this user's talk page is a red link? I have requested a review of their KUWP edits. Bovlb (talk) 18:26, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection of stage name (Q1055303)

— Reasons: Vandalism--Trade (talk) 01:36, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done Semi-protected for a month. As is often the case, most of these strike me as well-intentioned but profoundly misplaced edits rather than deliberate vandalism.  Bovlb (talk) 02:10, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Why do you think that?--Trade (talk) 02:24, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I suspect some new users are editing a page like stage name (Q1055303) to add specific names because they are actually trying to add or change the stage name for some person, but are somehow going very wrong in doing so. Hanlon's razor (Q257767) Bovlb (talk) 02:37, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to me that if there's a pattern of edits getting regularly misplaced like this there's no reason to expect that pattern to stop after one month. Why protected it only for a month, so we have the same problem we have today in a month again? ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 10:36, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Undelete Items Q96141738, Q96143247, Q96145462 and Q96144909

Blue Antoinette (Q96141738) and its owner (Q96143247) is an official Google Cloud Partner. Also the mentioned software Global Tax as a Service (Q96145462) and Global Tax for Marketplaces and More (Q96144909) is listed on the Google Cloud Platform (and there are more to come). You can check this out on the official Google Cloud Partner page Furthermore there also comparable items available on Wikidata yet, e.g. Google Kubernetes Engine (Q59848767) that are extended by these items. RobertoDonPedro (talk) 07:23, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't mean he doesn't have a right to request a undeletion @Esteban16:--Trade (talk) 11:43, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
He did request, and I voiced an opinion as to why it shouldn't be filled.
Also, (off topic because it does not apply here) his image is nominated on commons. His primary justification for keeping was 'it is in use'. So, he kind of needs the wd item to be restored, otherwise the image isn't in use. Quakewoody (talk) 12:27, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
These items meet your notability criteria (which state that at least one is required) as follows:
The telephone book is also serious and publicly available. The criteria shouldn't be interpreted as broadly as you do. -- Discostu (talk) 07:34, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for responding. The identifiers on these four items are: a YouTube channel, a LinkedIn profile, none, and none (ignoring official websites) which is weak on identification. No claims are referenced, and there are no other external links. As Discostu points out, the "Official Google Cloud Partner page" is more like a directory entry than "serious and publicly available references". For example, if you could find articles in major newspapers or academic journals that are primarily about one of these entities, then you would have a very strong case. I couldn't find a "press coverage" section on https://www.blueantoinette.com/ . Bovlb (talk) 14:20, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You cannot compare it with an entry in a telephone book, since literally everone can get listed on a telephone book. For a listing as an official Google Cloud Build Partner on the other hand you need a deep integration of your product(s) with Google. I could also provide further links which describe the integration, however my items were deleted immediately, even before I could provide further links or create further items. Regarding newspaper, journal articles or press coverage please note that that's not Blue Antoinette's business or focus, rather it provides highly specialized software not yet very well known in public. RobertoDonPedro (talk) 18:17, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"not yet very well known in public" - That's the point. Now please stop trying to misuse Wikidata for your marketing. -- Discostu (talk) 07:43, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Follow up on an old privacy request

https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Wikidata:Administrators%27_noticeboard&oldid=722573853#demande_de_masquage It’s my understanding that in this old query a user asked for the masking on some personal information of its item. Yet it seems that the information are still present in the history of the item. I think they should be masked per WD:BLP. @Pamputt:

On a more abstract level, is there mechanisms to follow up on such requests to verify nobody readds information after someone asked them deleted ?

author  TomT0m / talk page 15:33, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't such a mechanism violate our privacy policy? --Trade (talk) 15:41, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
A thing to alert when certain property are (re)added on certain item after a deletion request ? Why, this is personal information ? The requests are still kept anyway, imho that would imply that the requests themselves should be masked as well ? author  TomT0m / talk page 15:57, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, i thought you meant looking at the item, not adding statements.--Trade (talk) 16:01, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

vandelism

Requests to block User:Philip Ib. The editor knowingly puts errors into value. May or may not, Nimrod Fortress is currently in Israeli territory. Wikidata is not the place for wishful thinking. In addition, he entered an editorial war in front of me, opposite User:אלעדב. and User:מיכאל.צבאן. thanks, דגש חזק - Talk 20:12, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ah I'm sorry, I confused you with אלעדב as far as the edit-warring goes. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 08:56, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There is an old political debate about who the land belongs to; But those who are actually there are citizens of the State of Israel, and there is no entry there with a Syrian ID card. The argument should be kept elsewhere. In fact, it is in the territory controlled by the State of Israel. Syria has no control over the place. thanks, דגש חזק - Talk 09:04, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
In fact, the user who started reverting the edits without discussion or clarification is the one who started vandelism. I have Re-added my amendments in a way that cannot be rejected, here in wikidata and When we deal with political matters we only accept international laws and the provisions of international organizations, the first of which is the United Nations. As for the Reality imposed by the force of arms, it does not accept it, nor do we accept changing the geography, the truth, and bias towards the point of occupation. The open street map you mentioned is biased to the views of the US government and cannot be considered a Credible source, and even if Google Maps put the Golan inside Israel entirely, we cannot accept that, because wikidata is an independent project, and it follows the Wikimedia Foundation that applies the international and neutral viewpoint.Philip Ib (talk) 11:42, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Mike Novikoff

User breaks WD:NPA:

I ask you to take measures to stop the insults.Carn (talk) 08:57, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Admins: of course you *can* "take measures" if you want me to leave for good, and I'll do. I'll do leave for good.
Just because I am NOT member of their ruwikian chats, Skype and Discord, where they just have obviously coordinated this attack on me. Чатики-браччучатики.
Still I hope that WD has nothing to do with the stinking ruwiki, and even less with their semi-private chats. No place for ruwiki drama here.
Not to mention that there's rather wrong translation from Russian ("MGIMO finished" style), and the thing that they surely didn't expext (I myself didn't, too): I've just got thanks for this edit from Ghuron. — Mike Novikoff 10:01, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If you don't want drama — don't bring it. The fact that Ghuron thanked you for the edit, where you called him patronymic (Q110874) "Гондоныч" ~ "son of condom" honors his sense of humor, not your behavior.Carn (talk) 10:26, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't really know why he did it (maybe you do?), but so what anyway? You [don't yet] see, it's a decent place unlike your ruwiki, and people don't get punished and killed just because of a made-up conflicts. And it's defeitely NOT a place where your "чатики-браччучатики" would be revdel'd. @TenBaseT: noboby will revdel "чатики-браччучатики" and block me for a week for this, so *I* will remain here at WD, making a clear contrast with what you've done to me at your ruwiki. Чатики-браччучатики, чатики-браччучатики, чатики-браччучатики! (For anyone interested, чатики-браччучатики means a pun for a ruwikian sockmaster D.bratchuk and his unusually lucky sock Good Will Hunting). — Mike Novikoff 11:50, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
One more message like this, and I am going to block your account. Civility is not optional on this Wiki, even if there is only one administrator around who can speak your language. I am not a member of Russian wikiclan either, whatever this means.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:56, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Closing an RFC?

Would an uninvolved admin please be able to take a look at Wikidata:Requests for comment/Disallow merging into newer entity? It has been open for a month now (opened 13 May) and has not had any new support/oppose comments since 25 May. The edits since then are purely back-and-forth between the proposer and some commenters (disclaimer: I am one of them) and it doesn't look like it's going to get any new perspectives. Andrew Gray (talk) 12:09, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

PS: apologies if this isn't the right place to ask, but it seemed like a good way to find a neutral third party! Andrew Gray (talk) 12:13, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:MrProperLawAndOrder

Would someone please look in at Wikidata:Requests for comment/Disallow merging into newer entity? User:MrProperLawAndOrder has accused four of us of "supporting vandals" and, in the sequence after I have given him two chances to retract the entirely false statement has accused me of a personal attack for saying, "Apparently, you are not only being insulting, you didn't even bother reading what I wrote" when he responded to the request by drawing a conclusion not justified by my words.

If indeed you believe he is right, and that I am "supporting vandals" and making personal attacks, please say so, and I will suspend myself from participating in discussions on Wikidata.- Jmabel (talk) 02:04, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jmabel,
  1. I wrote "you support vandals by giving them a chance to break queries by creating a higher ID item." and I withdrew it, because I made an error with that statement. "Anyway, I withdraw, since I have no single proof that a vandal is actively using this vector. If it is not used by a vandal, leaving it open cannot be a support of any vandal."
  2. you still didn't explain where I have been insulting
  3. you still didn't explain how it is OK to say something about me that you cannot know
  4. please show the diff where I accused you 'of a personal attack for saying, "Apparently, you are not only being insulting, you didn't even bother reading what I wrote"'
RE "when he responded to the request by drawing a conclusion not justified by my words." - that can be discussed there if I drew a false conclusion. Did you never drew a false conclusion in your life? I did, and I am happy if people explain it to me. MrProperLawAndOrder (talk) 04:44, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
