SPI on Rodolfootoya12

Hey, thanks for merging my two reports at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Rodolfootoya12/Archive. The SPI report system intimidates me and I've made mistakes in the past. Appreciate it! Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:47, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Niagara Frontier

You appear to have closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Niagara Frontier erroneously. Notability is not the only criterion for deletion, as should have been obvious from my nomination statement, where I clearly stated the topic is notable. My argument was not based on notability, but you said: "Notability is the key to inclusion, not anything else". I don't believe that statement is supportable given precedent.

Yes, we have things like copyvio, blatant advertisement, etc. But otherwise, having a precise definition just isn't a criteria for inclusion. -- King of 17:50, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A block

Per your comment at this sock puppet investigation, while one of the accounts is currently blocked, it is for a set number hours for previous edit warring, not indeff for the block evasion -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 21:41, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I guess User:NuclearWarfare/Mark-blocked script.js is making me lazy and just assuming "blocked is blocked." I upgraded it to indef. -- King of 21:44, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
oops I had linked the wrong account. Thanks for finding and blocking the correct one! -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 21:54, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Armenian Internet Traffic Exchange page deletion issue

Hello,

Can you tell me what is wrong particularly with this page?

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vahan.hovsepyan (talkcontribs) 06:05, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Armenian Internet Traffic Exchange "ARMIX" Foundation. There is insufficient coverage in reliable secondary sources to meet WP:CORP. -- King of 06:10, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

SPI

I moved Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Treeyoyo to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ConradJack, which is standard when the master isn't the master or one of the socks is actually older. Not sure how familiar you are with that. Ping me if there is a question. Dennis Brown - © Join WER 15:33, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've added {{SPIarchive notice}} as well, which we use when moving cases unless the case was horribly misfiled (i.e. Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/User:Treeyoyo). --Rschen7754 17:48, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks for letting me know. -- King of 23:32, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like your input

Hello, this is Akuri again. I raised an issue here that I'm trying to figure out how to deal with. I know you've helped me a lot already, but can you give any help or advice about this situation? 188.142.108.23 (talk) 00:16, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There's something I'm confused about. If you have access to so many IPs, then why are you editing while logged out? -- King of 03:00, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ever since Timotheus Canens hard blocked my current default IP range (101.0.*), all of the IPs I have been using are proxies. The 110.32.* range is the ISP that I used to use, but I'm not registered with them anymore now that I have free internet access with my employer's network. The proxies that now are my only way to edit are very slow and they go up and down a lot, so when I try to log in or out with one the connection often times out. Because I often edit from computers that don't belong to me and I'm not in control of my employer's network, I also always have been concerned about account security. It was worth it to log in to edit and log out when I was done when my IP range was soft blocked, because then that was the only way to edit from my default IP range. But now that I have to use proxies whether I log in or not, having to log in and log out while still trying to keep my account secure is an additional difficulty and a risk without any benefit. 186.227.61.51 (talk) 06:17, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
