User talk:JW1805~commonswiki
Hi Dbenbenn, I wanted to point out that User:Kaspersky Доверие is a sockpuppet of User:Zephram Stark. See w:User:Kaspersky Trust. All the Vladivostok photos he uploaded here can be assumed to have phoney sources. He also uploaded a bunch of duplicated images of ones that I had put on Wikipedia (that was just to annoy me). I don't really know what the policies over here are (he's banned from Wikipedia.....but I don't know if that applies here or not). Just wanted to let ya know. --JW1805 03:49, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note. Zephram Stark is blocked here, too, and I guess it's well known now that Stark lies about image sources. I'll keep investigating ...
- You said at Image talk:Tarpon Springs Mural improved.jpg that you have a higher-resolution version of Image:Tarpon Springs Mural.jpg. If so, please upload it! The Commons always wants the highest resolution images we can get.
- I noticed at Image talk:Tarpon Springs Mural.jpg that User:ElectricRay supported Kaspersky suspiciously quickly. I see that w:User:ElectricRay is a fairly long-time contributor who has posted to w:User talk:Zephram Stark. Possibly ElectricRay is a well-concealed sockpuppet? User:dbenbenn 04:17, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- Ohoho, you wouldn't be the first to accuse me of that, and I'm sure you won't be the last. Go ahead, do a CheckUser on me, old boy. My name is Olly Buxton and I live in North London. For corroboration, see my amazon reviewer page: [1] which dates back to 1999. I promise you I am not, and have never met, Zephram Stark, though I believe (from my time at Wikipedia) that that name is a pseudonym and he resides somewhere in the US. As I find him tremendously amusing, I do like to keep tabs on what he's doing (all one needs to do is look at JW's talk page for that) and I like to weigh in where I can with my countercultural show of defiance and support. All it is, is I think he's funny, and JW1805 doesn't! To my mind, the world needs people like Zephram Stark, and has a surfeit of JW1805s. I thought his Kasperksy Trust user was a fantastic effort, and he almost got away with it! Watch the Skies, JW1805! ElectricRay 09:05, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
By the way, I'm not going to speedy delete the "improved" images (Image:James Oglethorpe improved.jpg, etc); they're not really candidates. Possibly someone else will. But it might be better if you list them on Commons:Deletion requests. User:dbenbenn 04:42, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
Ulster flag[edit]
I've corrected the hand in Image:Flag of Ulster.svg, please let me know if there's something else that needs to be fixed. Conscious 15:49, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed[edit]
Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called JW1805. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name JW1805~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
