Heads up.
Hello. I mentioned your name at Knowledge (XXG):Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Long-term_harrassment_by_User:Unscintillating. This is just a courtesy heads-up; I am not complaining about you there. Reyk YO! 04:10, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
Protection Policy
You took part in a previous discussion on the protection policy talk page about the reference to "uncontroversial" edits. A survey is now in progress on that page in response to a request for comments. You may want to visit that talk page again and provide your input to try to obtain consensus.

Disambiguation link notification for May 20
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Knowledge (XXG) appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jephthah, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Adah (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Question
Hello. I have a question. An editor keeps on adding "Notes" below "References." As a sub-heading. In various articles.
I pointed out that the first-used approach was completely correct.
I asked him to see here ("This section, if needed, is usually titled "Notes" or "References" ... With some exceptions ... citations appear in a single section"").
Yet this editor, when I pointed it out and reverted to the first (and acceptable) format (just stating "References"), insists on reverting me and re-adding the sub-heading "Notes" below it.
I discussed it in my edit summary. He reverts without comment.
I discussed it on the first such article talk page. He ignores that talk page and again reverts without edit summary.
And he then informs me that MOS is not a guideline -- and thus, he seems to think his reverts (which are now covering a number of articles) and additions of this needless second heading are a good idea.
I've found him hostile to me in previous interactions. How would you think I best approach this? Many thanks.--Epeefleche (talk) 02:14, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Knights of Columbus FAC
Hello! Seven years ago you took part reviewing the Knights of Columbus article when it was up for Featured Article. It passed then, but was later delisted. I've addressed the new concerns and have put it back up for consideration again.

Thanks! --Briancua (talk) 13:53, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Potential sockpuppet of Levineps
Recently, User:Oriole85 (contribs) has been sporadically popping up on my watchlist for category-related changes. A lot of new users do that, so it wasn't a particularly noteworthy thing for me. But then he kept showing up with a higher frequency, oftentimes making (what I thought to be) completely unnecessary over-categorizations to articles. I've been on Knowledge (XXG) long enough to know that User:Levineps (contribs) is one of the most notorious over-categorizers we've ever seen (and has the community sanctions, block records, and bans to show for it). So, I did about two minutes' worth of research and discovered that Oriole85's account was created / his edits began on November 5, 2013. When was the last edit by Levineps? November 4, 2013. That is not a coincidence IMO. I don't have (a) the time right now, nor (b) the motivation to formally open an SPI, but I'm hoping that one of the many people I'm notifying about this does. If you're wondering why you're being pinged about this, it's because I saw where you were one of the people who has left messages on Levineps' talk page at some point regarding his inappropriate editing. So now, in addition to all of the aforementioned issues with Levineps, it looks like a probably sockpuppet to throw into the mix. Jrcla2 (talk) 05:32, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

RE: File:MargoMartindale1.jpg
Hi Sarek. I must disagree about the free replaceability of the image in question. This image was of Martindale specifically in her Emmy-award winning role, basically her career highlight to this point. The fact that she won an Emmy playing "Mags Bennett" is noted in the photo description in the article as well as elsewhere in the article. The image helps to fix the actress and the award-winning role in the readers mind. Since it is a copywright-protected (F/X Network) show and no know free image of her in the role is known to exist "fair use" seemed to be the best way to proceed. I've seen numerous other screenshots and such licensed the same manner in other Knowledge (XXG) articles and there never seems to have been an issue. In fact, when I uploaded the Martindale image I based the licensing info I filled in on the form on one from a similar "fair use" image that had passed muster and been on Knowledge (XXG) for some time. I can't recall which image at this time, however, since it's been quite awhile since I uploaded the Martindale image. Hope I'm making some sense. Thanks and have a great Wiki kind of day...or maybe I should say "live long and prosper". :) Sector001 (talk) 17:53, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
- It might be valid fair use for a Mags Bennett article, but it's much less clear that it's valid for a Margot Martindale article. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:07, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

User Not Responding to My Good-Faith Questions
Dear Sarek,
I am a veteran editor and newbie collaborator who needs your help getting another user to answer my questions about his concerns about my editing because I feel like I cannot boldly and competently edit until he tells me his block-worthy concerns.
When on 17 March he threatened to call for my blocking because he believed that my editing was disruptive, I stopped editing and asked him to clarify his concerns. He replied by requesting "an English translation," which I provided on 24 February. Still not editing since 17 February, I asked him to clarify again on 16 March. He has not replied.
Contacting him may be difficult because of his behavior. He has not answered me for twenty-six days while answering others and editing articles, evincing that he can edit and therefore chooses not to answer me for whatever reason--good or bad. Furthermore, I unintentionally offended him before, perhaps causing him to feel frustration or spite wherefore he might choose to avoid me. Finally he may have all-along wanted my editing to stop and therefore want to avoid conversation potentially causing it to resume: his first message to me was "Please stop your current copy editing activities. Every example that I have looked at so far has resulted in a much poorer style of English which is often difficult to understand and often grammatically wrong. You may well mean to help, but this really isn't helping" and he later told me to avoid editing expert or technical content beyond my expertise, which includes almost all content and especially content I like reading and editing.
I have included no evidentiary diffs because I think them unnecessary for a dispute wherein no text has been deleted and all text exists on his or my talk page and his user history. If you would prefer having these diffs, then I will provide them. I feel somewhat frightened and powerless in this dispute with him and have over the past weeks via e-mails futilely asked several other editors to help resolve it.
