You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Carr Collins,Sr. 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Cut & paste move
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Madeleine Riffaud a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Madeleine Riffaud. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the _target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. - David Biddulph (talk) 07:04, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Re: Karan Rao
It didn't actually look like socking to me; rather, it was a new user who was unintelligently trying to make the support for keeping the article appear much larger than it was. If you look at this comment, User:Candicell signed as "DAR." Here, User:Candicell signed as "Dr. Adil." Here and elsewhere, User:Candicell signed as "Candicell." That's in addition to multiple unsigned comments which were later signed by SignBot. Judging by the user's poor grasp of English and complete disregard for site policies displayed across the multiple bogus articles they created, it seems like they don't realize any other user can look at the page history and see that there weren't multiple users pushing to keep the article but rather one user signing with different names.

Huggle is an absolutely fabulous tool, but it has a few shortcomings, specially when there's an instance of Maple 16 running in the backgound and Symantec is running a full virus scan.

BP article, question
Hi there,
I left you this question in an attempt to clarify your position. I am afraid you may have missed it, so am reposing here - but please reply at the talk page.
- What is your reasoning for suggesting mediation? Is this about the Gulf spill section, or about the article in general? If you wouldn't mind clarifying your complaints/observations, it would be appreciated.
I am still unclear about what you mean by "POV pushing". Arturo has declared his COI, so his edits can't be considered POV, in case that is what you are referring to. Thanks for your help, petrarchan47tc 22:35, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

You have asked me to "go away" from Wikipedia - highly insulting but probably the right choice - plus DO SOMETHING about Talk:Fascism
From the AN/I report on N-HH, although I find your hope for me to just "go away" from Wikipedia to be a disgusting and obnoxious display of contempt to a person who has voluntarily contributed for years in putting in scholarly sources into articles, perhaps you are right. I'm tired of the petty grudges, feuds, and POV-pushing that I see everyday on Wikipedia. Wikipedia in the past year for me has been a miserable experience. You think that this is just me whom is a problem for me getting frustrated? Just look at other users on Talk:Fascism, that action needs to be taken with, there is an ongoing personal feud between user TFD and Collect that have gone on for years that disrupts the article talk page, the user Darkstar1st keeps POV-pushing his point that fascism is socialism on and on after being told to stop; TFD and Bryonmorrigan respond to people like Darkstar1st and other right-libertarian newcomer users by viciously attacking them, or conversing with condescending and patronizing remarks. Talk:Fascism is a living hell for any new users and the blame cannot fall just on me. Perhaps leaving is the best choice, but I urge someone to DO SOMETHING about Talk:Fascism to stop the feud between TFD and Collect, the POV-pushing of Darkstar1st, and the vicious attacks made on newcomer users and Darkstar1st by Bryonmorrigan.--R-41 (talk) 13:34, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Europe
Hello Robert. I'm probably not very good with this editing rules. I left some brief description for the changes I made and I thought it would be sufficient. Anyway regarding the changes, I'm standing 100% behind them. All I have changed on some articles is that I removed e.g. from article "List of European stadiums by capacity" stadiums that are not in Europe. For example there was stadium in Şanlıurfa, Turkey which near border with Syria. My point is if the title says European there is no place for this e.g this stadium on the list. This is nonsense and completely non logical. Like if someone put "Parc des Princes", Paris on the list of North American list just because France has some territories in North America (St.Pierre and Miquelon). I also removed non European countries from various articles that deals with Europe. No matter what some people wish: Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan are Asian transcontinental states with small percentage(<3%) of its territories in Europe. Armenia and Cyprus are countries that are completely situated in Asia. Of course, they have strong connections with Europe but also United States has it, but no one will put U.S.A. in e.g article that lists states with their capitals sorted by population. This was a bit lengthy explanation, but hopefully I clarified some things about this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wutholen (talk • contribs) 22:28, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, you asked for refs for those quotes. I've supplied some more quotes on my talk page in case they are useful.

Are these sockpuppets?
Hi, I have suspected for a while that Warren Platts and BatteryIncluded might be sock puppets. I know you can't prove it but can disprove it if they don't share an ip address, is it possible to have a go at disproving it?
Reasons for the suspicion
Extended content
|
|---|
Caveat - this may be because of a discussion forum I participated in outside of wikipedia where several members of the forum insulted me repeatedly in a similarly OTT way. Warren Platts was in that discussion forum and refers to it. There was no-one on the discussion group called BatteryIncluded and BatteryIncluded has never mentioned that discussion group here. The thing is - why should an uninvolved wikipedian who never knew me outside wikipedia suddenly start insulting me at the same time as Warren Platts? His barrage of insults started on very little basis - a disagreement on the talk page for Life on Mars about cosmic radiation and habitability of the surface of Mars for life - not something that should turn someone into such a hostile opponent of me - not if all he know of me was that i had a different opinion from him about the habitability of the surface of Mars. Curiously BatteryIncluded was one of those who suggested I create the article that was later sent to AfD. He was quite friendly in that first comment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Mars_sample_return_mission#Suggestion_for_a_new_article_.22Back_contamination_concerns_for_a_Mars_sample_return.22 but later when Warren Platts started insulting me, that's about the same time that BatteryIncluded also started insulting me. With Warren Platts there was a build up over several posts in the discussion forum first. But with BI unless he was a member of that same forum and has just never said - there was no build up at all and I was quite taken aback by it. Suddenly he was violently hostile to me having been reasonably normal and friendly just a few days before. Here is a sample of BatteryIncluded's insults of me, similar to Warren Platts but more extreme http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Life_on_Mars/Archive_2&oldid=561846450#RfC:_Is_this_an_accurate_summary_of_the_research_on_cosmic_radiation_influx_on_the_Mars_surface.3F
In all my years of editing wikipedia no-one apart from these two editors has ever insulted me or accused me of bias or spamming or anything, not even once. And would he start insulting me like that over an important, but still, comparatively minor matter?
BatteryIncluded has an extensive user page - so if it is sock puppetry, Warren Platts would be the sock puppet and probably his real name.
Battery Included made just one Delete on the AfD plus a reply but it was a strongly worded Delete. Without him it would have been a strong keep from me, a strong delete from Warren Platts, and a weak keep from N2e plus several new votes on the last day that might well have been swung by a different consensus to date. I don't think it would have closed so soon and I might have had some more keeps if it kept going. But the thing that has finally taken this to slightly more than just a background suspicion is that over the last few days,

Do you see why i am a bit suspicious. But I also know how easily one can be mislead by patterns and coincidences and on balance think it is just a coincidence.

Hi, I noticed you were online. I recently created David O. Dykes and it was tagged for a speedy delete before I was finished with it. I have made big changes since then from independent verifiable sources and established credibility. It now has almost 50 references. Could you please take a look at it and tell me if I have saved it and if not what I can do. -RedRaiderApache (talk) 15:09, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
