Discussion[edit]

Template parameters[edit]

A use of a template can only use those parameters that are already coded into the template. Other parameters are ignored. {{Infobox user}} has no parameter called age. It has a parameter called birthdate. But like others at Wikipedia:Help desk#"Template loop detected", I suggest you don't reveal your birthdate or age. PrimeHunter (talk) 21:09, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Birthday[edit]

I'm sorry, but I had to remove your birthday as you are not of legal age yet where you live, and wikipedia does not allow minors to post that kind of information about themselves for safety reasons. Thank you for understanding. -- Avi (talk) 22:24, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What is the legal age and what are you talking about? Dannyboy1209 (talk) 16:22, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
16 years old in Scotland (see Minor_(law)#United Kingdom, you are younger than that. Please do not restore the information. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 19:57, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shut up! It's my age! If I want to show it, then I will show it ok! No more changing my page! Ok!

I'm sorry, Danny, but you are under a misconception. The user page is not yours, it belongs to the project. Please see Wikipedia:User page for more details. I have had to lock down the page until such time as you understand that editing on wikipedia is allowed because you agreed to abide by its rules, and not allowing a minor's personal information is one of those rules. Please discuss this with your parents, I am certain they will be able to explain it to you. Also, if it is found that you disregard these rules, measures may have to be taken to protect the integrity of the project, which may include loss of editing privileges. I am sorry. -- Avi (talk) 20:26, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please let me edit this page? I was the one who created it so I should be able to edit it. Thankyou, Daniel

Dannyboy, if you will promise not to display your age or birthdate -anywhere- on-wiki, we can lift the page protection. You need to understand that your edits weren't just reverted, they were oversighted, that means they were removed from Wikipedia altogether by a very senior administrator. That's how seriously we take this. It's very important that you understand and accept that we're not going to let you show information that we think might end up causing you harm. You also need to understand that this is not Facebook, you don't "own" any pages, even your own user pages. Everyone has to work together here and observe the rules. If you can agree to all that, I can lift the page protection for you.

On another subject, please remember to sign your talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~) and it's best to not use a space at the beginning of a line, it puts your text into a box like you see above. Franamax (talk) 00:22, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe I should own my user page. Maybe Wikipedia should be more like Facebook. I really don't understand the rules of Wikipedia. I'd like my page unprotected from me. I would also like to be autoconfirmed since I have made well over 10 edits.Dannyboy1209 (talk) 20:04, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Danny, wikipedia is definitely NOT facebook. I suggest you read the following page: Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. If you have difficulty, please get your parents or an older sibling to explain it to you. This is an encyclopedia, not a social website, and thus it has different rules. Editors who do not agree to follow those rules may have their editing privileges revoked. I'm sorry that you find this frustrating, but there are certain rules that need to be followed here. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 23:02, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Accounts must both have 10 edits and be 4 days old to become autoconfirmed. Your account creation is here. Your user page is fully protected and not semi-protected, so it can only be edited by administrators. PrimeHunter (talk) 02:10, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For the 3rd time, could I have my user page unprotected please!?!? Also I have made well over 10 edits and My account was created a few days ago. Dannyboy1209 (talk) 18:36, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not until you confirm that you will no longer be posting your birthday or any other personal information. -- Avi (talk) 18:58, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok but I really want my page unprotected. Please can I be autoconfirmed I have over 40 edits and have been on wikipedia for almost 4 days now. Dannyboy1209 (talk) 19:02, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Very well, I will unprotect your page. However, any further violation of wikipedia policy, especially regarding personal information about a minor, will likely result in both the re-locking of the page and a removal of your editing privileges. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 21:26, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can I please be autoconfirmed????????????

I believe you already are. -- Avi (talk) 19:59, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Logos[edit]

Hello, Danny.

Logos of companies are usually under copyright, and thus only usable on wikipedia for purposes that are protected as fair use. using the logo of a company to show things you enjoy on a wikipedia userpage is not considered legal fair use, so you will need to remove them, I am afraid. Please remember, Wikipedia is NOT facebook, we are not a site that people should be using to talk about themselves; it is allowed only as much as it would help you and other editors collaborate with you to build the encyclopedia. Please realize that your userpage may be deleted if it is ruled to be out-of-scope of the project. Once again, I suggest you read Wikipedia:User page, or have someone read it and explain it to you. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 20:22, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Those are not from a company Dannyboy1209 (talk) 20:24, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Look at the image page, they are under copyright. One of them even has the copyright (c) on it! -- Avi (talk) 21:52, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the violations. I highly suggest you ask a parent or sibling to explain these rules to you, otherwise, to protect the wikipedia project, pages may be locked and editing privileges removed. I'm sorry, but this is NOT a free webhost or social website, and the sooner you understand it, the less likely you will be to run afoul of our rules. -- Avi (talk) 21:54, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]


File source problem with File:Snow12.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Snow12.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 06:08, 8 December 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 06:08, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Redqd.jpg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Redqd.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 06:09, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not redirect other people's userpages[edit]

I see earlier today that you redirected my page to your own, with the edit summary "Your fault for redirecting", by which I assume you were either thinking you could pretend to be me and redirect my userpage page to your own, or you were reffering to this. Firstly, it is unhelpful to make changes such as these to other people's userpages. Secondly, you blanked the page on Muirikirk railway station, which was restored by another user, who correctly stated that "if it needs an article, please write one. But blanking things causes problems and is generally not the correct thing to do." Please do not disrupt Wikipedia again, as other editors might not be as lenient as myself.

February 2011[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Stuart Ashen has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. Snowolf How can I help? 19:51, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Stuart Ashen, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. TexasAndroid (talk) 19:40, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My Reason Was Valid — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dannyboy1209 (talkcontribs)

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Stuart Ashen. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. DVdm (talk) 19:43, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

For petes sake, I just want a placeholder, until I can create a proper article — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dannyboy1209 (talkcontribs)

We don't do placeholders here. If we did, the place would quickly fill up with placeholders. Either you write an article or you do not. A placeholder is not a valid option. Also, be aware that there has previously been an article there, and it was deleted as not meeting notability guidelines. See here for the previous deletion discussion. I can provide you with a user-space draft of the previous article, if that will help you as a starting place. But keep in mind, unless you can provide better evidence of notability than was previously there, your new article is not likely to remain for long. You now have the attention of several other editors (and admins) with this placeholder fight, so anything you do finally write is likely to get a close examination. - TexasAndroid (talk) 20:25, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I would like a user space draft — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dannyboy1209 (talkcontribs)
It is available at User:Dannyboy1209/Stuart Ashen. This is a copy of the last state of the page before it was deleted. Keep in mind, if you use this as a starting place, you need to get the WP:NOTE of the subject much, much better established before the article will have a chance at remaining on the project, given that it's already been deleted once for lack of notability. Please read WP:BIO for general information on notability criteria for biographical articles. - TexasAndroid (talk) 21:13, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have fixed the article — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dannyboy1209 (talkcontribs)
No, no you have not. You have copied back into place exactly the same article that was previously deleted, which is now subject to deletion again as a recreation of previously deleted material. I see not a single new/additional source added to bring it to meet the requirements of [{WP:BIO]]. I'm trying to help you here, I really am. The article, as it stands, *will* be deleted, soon, as a recreation. Cut&pasting the old article right back into place is not helping your cause in the slightest. Sigh. - TexasAndroid (talk) 21:47, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Your repeated edits to this page in attempts to mark it as a placeholder were disruptive, whether intentionally or not. It is possible that at first you were acting in good faith, not realising that Wikipedia does not work like that, but you persisted in doing it after warnings. The article you finally posted there was unsuitable for several reasons, including the fact that it was a repost of an article which had previously been deleted as a result of a consensus at a deletion discussion. You clearly were aware of that fact. You also stated "I have fixed the article" when you must have known perfectly well that you had done nothing of the sort. You are welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, but please do so in cooperation with other editors, and do not attempt to push your own edits in the face of consensus against you, otherwise you will be blocked from editing.

Faithless article[edit]

Hi, How come you removed the info about Faithless calling it a day? It was accurate and referenced as far as I could see... Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 18:27, 18 March 2011 (UTC) I decided to adjust the article[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Faithless, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 16:39, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

April Fools' Day[edit]

I explained in my edit summary that I removed the list because it's an WP:EXAMPLEFARM. Please do not make a mass undo like that unless you explain why you're doing it — preferably in the edit summary and/or the talk page. Just 'undo revision by x' is not explaining, and it gives the illusion of disruption. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 19:54, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Citroen Xsara Picasso (Car), and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.netcarshow.com/citroen/2004-xsara_picasso.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 09:32, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You created this article by copy and pasting the section from Citroen_Xsara_Picasso#Xsara_Picasso. In your edit summary, be sure to attribute the source as I did here. Also, this split doesn't appear to be an improvement from the section and the section has the same text. I suggest expanding the article or reversing the split.--NortyNort (Holla) 11:10, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

November 2011[edit]

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on other people again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Sparthorse (talk) 20:02, 18 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Children in need 2011 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Sparthorse (talk) 20:06, 18 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You RFA[edit]

Hey there Danny! It looks like you just tried, and failed, to transclude your RFA. If I could take this time to suggest that maybe you should reconsider running. With only 231* edits, of which only 59 are to Article space, I doubt you'll receive even a single vote in support. It's nothing personal, we just need to see more experience before trusting you with the tools. I hope you understand. Cheers! Achowat (talk) 18:54, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You were also hosting some non-free images in your Sandbox, which I've taken the liberty of removing. Achowat (talk) 18:59, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

*250 now For I identify myself as drt2012

(talk) 20:29, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And with comments like this "All work here and on the sandbox copyright Daniel Tennant 2012" on your user page, there is strong evidence that you may not understand something so basic to WP as "By clicking the "Save Page" button, you agree to the Terms of Use, and you irrevocably agree to release your contribution under the CC-BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL. You agree that a hyperlink or URL is sufficient attribution under the Creative Commons license." As you have also stated in your RFA that your User page is your best work, this is worrying. Bielle (talk) 19:03, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually there is nothing wrong with that sentence because releasing them under a CC license does not mean he has lost the copy rights for his contributions. He still has the copy rights and they require anyone copying the work to give attribution by a hyperlink. He also has the right to release his work further into public domain. If he said "all rights reserved", that would be a different story. --lTopGunl (talk) 14:13, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm sorry, but I've closed your RFA, as it was obvious it was not going to succeed. Take a look at WP:NOTNOW for some useful information on too-early RFA requests. As a side note, you've been editing disruptively lately, and need to focus less on adminship and more on editing collaboratively. If you need this clarified, ask here. --Floquenbeam (talk) 20:00, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

May 2012[edit]

Your recent editing history at Recurring jokes in The Simpsons shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your 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. 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.

Hi![edit]

Thank you for your interest in editing Wikipedia. However, I noticed that you have been creating articles without an appropiate stub template, which are also reference-less. Please could you add references to the articles. Feel free to remove this — if you are going to fix the articles. Tomtomn00 (talkcontributions) 18:56, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Stuart ashen requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Ryan Vesey Review me! 21:53, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Time to take a break[edit]

Dannyboy, your edits are really starting to get disruptive. You have to stop creating articles like Stuart ashen, which are not within our criteria for inclusion. Right now, irritations on all sides are on the rise, and you need to disengage. If you don't it's likely you will end up blocked. Please take this as well meant advice, it is really looking like your started off in a bad way, and are slipping down to even worse behaviour, but you're still in time to turn it around if you take advice to heart. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 22:06, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Note too that I've deleted the talk page you subsequently created (Talk:Stuart Ashen, with capital-A for ashen) as we don't allow talk pages for non-existent articles. To answer your question there, the reasons that page has been deleted so many times are given in the deletion log for that page. You can ask at our help desk what those log entries mean. I do hope you take all the advice people are giving you here to heart, slow down, and ask more questions rather than ploughing ahead the way you have. Regards!

{{Help me}} Why is Stuart Ashen deleted so much and what does a7 mean. Also, why should I give a damn if Dr Ashen is significant or not. He is a famous youtube star. Isnt he.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on User talk:Logan. Please comment on the content and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

Request reason:

On livechat, I tried to ask about the complexity of wikicode. Shortly afterwards, Logan blocked me for no particuar reason. Because of my asperger's syndrome, I acted in revenge towards him, by asking him to reverse the blockage. He then deleted my request. This upset me. So, I tried to post again. again, he deleted me. I got very very upset, so I trouted him and used a swear word in the process. I appologise for this, but I should not be treated like that. drt2012 (talk) 21:01, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Livechat is not a formal part of Wikipedia, and I cannot see the logs from there. However, your behaviour here on Wikipedia is ridiculous - and calling someone an "idiot" again and again is not appropriate. Please note, I have extensive understanding of Aspergers, and although I have blocked another user for "making fun of it", it can NEVER excuse your incivility and personal attacks here on Wikipedia, period.

Hey Danny, can you tell me what you mean by "He then deleted my request"? Did he delete your request in chat, or on wiki? If possible, links to page diffs would be appreciated. AndrewN talk 21:19, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to ask him on his user talk page. He deleted this. He did the same with my second attempt. THis made me upset. I swore and am now sorry for it. I am definetely drt2012 (talk) 09:56, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Teahouse talkback: you've got messages![edit]

Hello, Dannyboy1209/Archive 1. Your question has been answered at the Teahouse Q&A board. Feel free to reply there!
Please note that all old questions are archived after 2-3 days of inactivity. Message added by Sarah (talk) 05:33, 20 May 2012 (UTC). (You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{teahouse talkback}} template).[reply]

Mentorship[edit]

Hi Dannyboy. Firstly, can I just say, welcome to wikipedia. I see you've gotten off on the wrong foot, but don't worry that happens to a lot of people - you can still move forward productively from here. I'm afraid I'm a little busy to mentor you full time at the moment, but I'm certainly happy to be a "go-to" guy if you've got any questions, and help you out of any sticky situations by helping you to deal with the problems. I'm afraid you caught me while I was on holiday, so sorry I wasn't there to help out before.

Now, let's see, you've done a lot of "right" things, wandering to the Teahouse to ask questions and admitting when you have difficulties, say in wikicode. However, blowing up at editors is not a good thing, especially for something that happened off wikipedia. What's more, Aspergers Syndrome is not something that is accepted as an excuse here. Quite simply, as a voluntary site, we do not accept editors who cannot follow the rules of the encyclopedia, and if a condition prevents you from editing productively, then it's best that you find something else to do. However, I am certain you have the ability to edit productively. I've got a friend, Pesky who wrote an essay which might help you. She is also a great person to bother if you're getting stressed, as she has a lot of experience working with editors who have Aspergers.

Anyway, if you want to drop me a message here or on my talk page, feel free. WormTT · (talk) 08:34, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

RFA[edit]

Hello, I noticed it looks like you're trying to add another request for adminship. It's great that you're excited about wikipdeia, but i'm afraid it looks like you're rushing things. There's a lot of good work to be done without being an admin. I myself am not an admin, and I've been around for about 5 years. You got some advice above when your first RFA was closed. I really think you should read through the links provided, and try not to think about adminship till you've at least had several months if not more of editing. Wish you the best around here.--Cube lurker (talk) 19:37, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WHERE DID MY RFA GO!!!

Here to help[edit]

Hey, I've seen you around a bit, and I'm wondering if there's something I could maybe do to help you. Now I'm not an admin (or even an Admin Hopeful), but I've been around for long enough to see that, perhaps, you really do want to edit constructively, you just need a push in the right direction. So let me ask: "What can I do to help you out?" Achowat (talk) 19:37, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikicode, Perhaps, for I think of myself as drt2012 (talk) 19:43, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What parts of Wikicode don't you think you have a handle on? I mean, you transcluded two RfAs with very little issue. Achowat (talk) 19:45, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You really need to stop focusing on your closed RFAs. You can be a good contributor here without the mop, and that's what you should strive for. Achowat (talk) 19:56, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
How then, do I do maths and other such commodities. Those tables are ridiculous.
What do you mean? What pages are you talking about? Achowat (talk) 20:01, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've gone six years without applying for admin, and I do maths every day —Tamfang (talk) 00:42, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I struck out my comments, and I recind my previous request to help you, based on your un-apologetic use of a Sock to evade a block. Happy editing, if you're ever allowed back. Achowat (talk) 14:46, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I have come back early, as I have noticed that someone is pretending to be me. Their account is User:dannyboy1209 2. I am NOT them and had no intention of ever engaging in sock puppetry. Please realise that I wouldn't do anything like that. drt2012 (talk) 18:18, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Prove me wrong; but this diff looks like classic you. Achowat (talk) 18:21, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That definetely wasn't me. I tried to go on a wikibreak, because I wanted to avoid WP to calm down a bit. I would not just try to create a second account and plus, I don't make spelling mistakes, the way my imposter does drt2012 (talk) 18:23, 24 May 2012 (UTC).[reply]
Spelling mistakes like definetely? —Tamfang (talk) 18:54, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's not classic Danny without a megalomanic tag. —Tamfang (talk) 18:54, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It really really wasn't me. Do you believe me? I would never ever do that sort of thing. Believe me, I amdrt2012 (talk) 19:04, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Stop quacking, no one believes you. I think the time is nigh that your talk page access should be revoked. Pol430 talk to me 19:31, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But I am telling the truth. Please would you believe me, without my talk page, I'll have nowhere to go. drt2012 (talk) 19:34, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't mean to be callous, but the Web is practically World Wide, or so I've heard. —Tamfang (talk) 19:36, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe no one believes him, but I don't disbelieve him. I can easily imagine that some other troll made a Danny-puppet to yank everyone's chain including Danny's. —Tamfang (talk) 19:38, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm willing to believe that User:dannyboy1209 2 wasn't you. It wouldn't be the first time we've seen a random vandal create what would appear to be an obvious sock of someone who'd recently been in trouble just for laughs. That said, I don't think whether or not that was you changes anything about what you've actually been blocked for on this account. --OnoremDil 19:38, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to request that a checkuser look at them. If they are the same person though, I am going to suggest that talkpage access be revoked. Ryan Vesey Review me! 19:39, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I just came around and saw this case. It seems pretty clear to me and many other people also that both these user accounts User:Dannyboy1209 and User:Dannyboy1209 2 are operated by the same person. Dannyboy1209 as you were already told before not to go for an RfA in the near future, you did start it again Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Dannyboy1209 2 and nominated another of your accounts for it as can be seen on the page. And when after it was closed the other account just went and undid the close process and started the RfA again just to be reverted and blocked again for block evasion and now you say that you were not doing it? Nothing has been left to believe anymore seeing the disruption and trolling which has been going around for quite a time and which other users have also said to you. TheGeneralUser (talk) 22:07, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I only put a 2 on the end of my username, because the RfA instructions ask me to do this. The instructions say "3. If this is your second nomination or subsequent, then add a space after the username with a number corresponding to the number of Requests for Adminship you have performed. If it is your second, put space 2. If it is your third, space 3 and so forth." I did just that. Now, obviously someone decided to take advantage of this situation (including the indefinite block), and decided to impersonate me. They tried to make me suffer at their expense and I decided to, and was forced to end my wikibreak early because of this. During it, I was monitoring my user page while logged out. I did not go anywhere near my user account on the night of the 24th of May. I, with my family, was watching The Apprentice at that time. My ip address is 92.0.122.171. I am pretty sure my imposter used a different ip address, as per the ip blocking policy. This means that it couldn't, therefore, have been me who created that account. I, as I had said before on previous occasions, would have had no reason whatsoever, to have done such a thing on Wikipedia. I understand how, due to my previous activity, you think that that sock puppet was me, but I am saying now and as I have said before, it completely and utterly was, under no circumstances at all, me who made that account. I do not want to be punished for things I did not do, and I have looked at Ryan Vessy's suggestion of a strict mentorship. I would definitely agree to doing this, and I would suggest it would be arranged as soon as is possible. I would like another chance, just to prove that I can change my ways and that I can indeed be an admin in about 3 months time. So, in conclusion, the sock puppet account was not mine at all, and I would like a strict mentorship. drt2012 (talk) 15:48, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
BTW< Apprentice was on at the times of the post below: "I now sign as Dannyboy 1209 2". On the subject of mentorship, I am willing to do that come August if it turns out that Dannyboy hasn't used sockpuppets. If the chu (which seems to be declined) comes up positive, I retract my proposal. Buggie111 (talk) 06:08, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
