Wishing you a colorful Christmas season. , --Contributers2020Talk to me here 10:14, 25 December 2021 (UTC) Hi Contributers2020, Thank you so much for your lovely greeting, Best greeting I've seen this year, Truly a lovely greeting thank you - I hope you and yours are having a wonderful Christmas and I hope you all have a happy, healthy and safe New Year, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 12:48, 25 December 2021 (UTC) Dave, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year (hopefully without the Corona mess)! --Túrelio (talk) 13:40, 25 December 2021 (UTC) Thanks @mate and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too - One can only hope mate, I miss the old world desperately so, Lets hope 2022 will be a much better year for all of us!, Have a wonderful day mate and I hope you have a happy, healthy and safe New Year, All the best, Warm Regards, Dave // –Davey2010Talk 13:52, 25 December 2021 (UTC) Asking if I am correct Hey Davey2010, hope you're having a great day. Fitindia has promoted me to file mover. So I moved 2 unidentified images. As you are a file mover as well, I would request you to confirm if I did it correct as I don't want anything to go wrong. I would be very grateful if you did it so. --Contributers2020Talk to me here 17:25, 5 January 2022 (UTC) Hi Contributers2020, All looks good here :), Have a great day, Thanks –Davey2010Talk 17:35, 5 January 2022 (UTC) Re: You may be blocked soon    This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Commons. –Lechita talk 19:12, 13 January 2022 (UTC) First of all, I am asking you to stop vandalizing - you undo the edits on the map without having the slightest idea what it contains, when the version showing the land in all its glory has been loaded, because the previous version was trimmed badly. Secondly, let go of the aggressive tone, because I will ask for an intervention and you will get a blockade - but you. My past? It's clean compared to yours, so worry about yours too. Lechita talk 19:12, 13 January 2022 (UTC) @LechitaPL Good luck with that. The only disruptive person here is you. Pack it in or you'll find yourself blocked. –Davey2010Talk 12:31, 14 January 2022 (UTC) @Davey2010 I see you haven't finished your aggressive rhetoric + you are restoring the wrong version of the map. I gave you a warning, but as a destructive person with 7 locks on your account, you want to get the eighth lock. Lechita talk 14:29, 14 January 2022 (UTC) @LechitaPL, I don't know anything about the history behind the map so you may well be correct however given your unnesseccary croppings with previous files IMHO you should seek consensus for your changes or failing that crop the file and upload as a whole new file. Report me and see where you get. –Davey2010Talk 14:42, 14 January 2022 (UTC) @Davey2010 & @LechitaPL - ok guys. Keep it calm please. Nothing happened, no one is vandalising, assume some good faith, will you, please? :) @Davey - LechitaPL admitted that he'd wrongly reverted some crops and he fully understands the situation. @LechitaPL - Davey was also acting in a good faith while reverting you. "Correcting" the crop by overwriting it with another one (even if the latter is correct indeed) is not the way how we do it. If you think that the crop is wrong, you should make a new crop from the original file, upload it separately, and use it in articles; while labeling the "wrong" crop with for example {{Factual accuracy}} or {{Inaccurate-map-disputed}}. @Davey - threatning another user with a block while having no means to apply one... you know, is just silly :) Try to avoid this. @Lechita - while I have no idea whether Lubusz diocese should be included in "Lands given up to Silesian dukes", please see above on correcting crops. Maybe the original file wasn't supposed to show this diocese, as it hadn't been given up to Silesian dukes? The best would be to consult the original uploader. Anyway guys, no sweats here please, take it easy, try to talk next time. And I assume that you will clean up whatever needs to be cleaned up, ok? cheers and have fun! Masur (talk) 13:50, 15 January 2022 (UTC) Thanks @Masur for your helpful reply. –Davey2010Talk 14:00, 15 January 2022 (UTC) File:DemonFM New Logo.png   File:DemonFM New Logo.png has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not.

Back on topic IMHO the images are all fine and didn't need replacing - Just because the images have been voted VI, QI and FI doesn't mean we should start using them although of course we should always use high quality images but IMHO we shouldn't unnecessarily replace high quality images for the sake of it, You're more than welcome to head to the talkpage and seek consensus on your proposed images (IE in the form of a COM:RFC, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 17:50, 25 April 2022 (UTC) Request for assistance Greetings: We have a newish volunteer who seems to have a problem when I pull images out of "no source, no license & no permission", mark them something like "This seems to be old enough to keep" and nominate them for deletion. He doesn't seem to wish to understand that this is a method to save the files and he gets rude to me about what he calls my lack of understanding of copyright and Commons. Recently he's started modifying his user page to include lists of negative interactions with me and other users. On one DN, someone commented that this user has trouble with en:wiki & and perhaps others. I would like to go on record that this situation now is creepy and unwelcome. I have no idea why he's picking at me, nor why he doesn't seem to understand that admins & bureaucrats (like me and Eugene Zelenko whom he also disrespects) work really hard keeping the place tidy and that there is no reason for personal attacks as part of the process. The situation is not fun and I would appreciate some help with it. Thank you. Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:30, 26 April 2022 (UTC) Hey Ellin Beltz, Other than this DR I see no issues with RAN or their edits thus far - In the mentioned DR RAN should've helped rather than left pointless commentary and expected everyone to do the work for him - If you knew the needed information quite rightly you would've added that information instead of nominating it for deletion so the commentary/point scoring was unnesscerry but other than that I'm not seeing any issues. Just to add I agree with your deletion here (because it's not a notable club nor do any cats exist for it), Anyway it may be best going to AN and seeking guidance from an admin as far as my knowledge with RAN goes I only know or at least remember him from the TRM (The Rambling Man days, Sorry I couldn't be of any help, thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:35, 26 April 2022 (UTC) Heya: The one you pointed out is typical of the others. I will take your advice. Cheers! Ellin Beltz (talk) 18:37, 26 April 2022 (UTC) Hiya, Ah okay admittedly i've only checked 4 recent DRs from the editor interaction tool and of course not following you both or being here that often there may be things I'm completely missed here, Thanks, Take care, –Davey2010Talk 18:42, 26 April 2022 (UTC) References Move request Hi Davey. My laptop got accidentally damaged several days ago and is under repair. I'm here asking you to move File:Molana Ahmed Saeed Dehlvi.png to File:Ahmad Saeed Dehlavi calligraphy.png. This is the consistency that the DCW User Group manages with all the calligraphic images that come under its focus.

Thanks for the move. I don't know how it happened but the display of the laptop is completely gone. As it was brand new laptop; this accidental damage has caused a lot of grief. Thanks to the CIS-A2K who are helping with the repair costs. ─ The Aafī on Mobile (talk) 19:28, 21 May 2022 (UTC) Hi @AafiOnMobile, Just spotted your note inre to redirect so I've requested deletion of that, Wow that sucks!, Unfortunately they don't make things like they used too, My expensive Dell Inspiron is made of cheap flimsy plastic so everythings come away or broken on it! but having no display must be terrible Oh that's nice of them - i don't ever get laptops repaired - I just buy second hand cheap ones lol, Anyway fingers crossed your laptop can be fixed and is workable again Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 01:35, 22 May 2022 (UTC) I'm back to my routine work. I hope everything is going good with you. ─ The Aafī (talk) 05:24, 21 June 2022 (UTC) Hey @TheAafi, okay cool, yep all's good here thanks - hope all's okay with you and yours, Kind regards, –Davey2010Talk 18:35, 21 June 2022 (UTC) to do Category:Optare Solo (original) - Optare Solo - Optare Versa - Sort images Arriva Medway Towns Hi, So at present we have these categories: Category:Arriva Guildford & West Surrey Category:Arriva Kent & Sussex‎ Category:Arriva Kent Thameside‎ Category:Arriva Medway Towns‎ Category:Arriva Southend‎ So to cut a long and confusing post short - Arriva at some point between 2015-2018 dropped the above divison names from their depots, vehicles and websites. Legal lettering (such as here (under 2nd window at the very bottom) had been replaced with "Ariva Kent and Surrey" - Arriva in the whole of Kent (inc Medway), Guildford, Surrey and Sussex are all under "Arriva Kent and Surrey" and have been for years so should the formet names be amended so to imply their historical and then create categories such as "ArrivaKS Medway, Arriva KS Maidstone? ( –Davey2010Talk 21:12, 15 October 2022 (UTC) Bus category maintenance Hi Davey, if you want help in identification of bus models, this revert ist not helpful. Files in this category should not be in either category (Enviro200 oder Enviro300) as long as they have not been identified as such. Being categorized in both makes even less sense, since each image is certainly wrong in one of these categories. Thus, I'd like to ask you to refrain from premature reverts like this one. Thank you, MB-one (talk) 18:29, 16 October 2022 (UTC) Hello @MB-one, The Enviro category you added is is going once I'm done with that category, The addition of Enviro200 and Enviro300 makes sense as the vehicles within that cat are either 200 or 300 models..... obviously they cannot be both but given I didn't know what that category was called at the time of creating it I made do with what I remembered and knew (ie the Category:Alexander Dennis Enviro200 and Category:Alexander Dennis Enviro300 models).

Anyway I again sincerely apologise for that stupid comment, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 20:08, 2 February 2023 (UTC) @Stemoc and @Rhododendrites, Not to dig myself a deeper hole but is the "sarcastic bullshit" sentence really worth blocking someone for 3 days or 2 weeks over?, Most of my incivilty blocks have all centered around me saying F off - No f words were mentioned and I didn't call the admin any names (completely ignoring the second comment) I'm not saying I should be unblocked because I said something less offensive but I simply called their replies "sarcastic bullshit" which to me isn't any where near block worthy - It's not polite totally agree but to me it's not block worthy either, The more I think about the block the less sense it actually makes –Davey2010Talk 11:41, 3 February 2023 (UTC) I personally thought the sarcastic comment deserved a 24 hour block (cool-off period), 3 days was overkill but that other thing you said after being blocked probably deserved a week minimum lol..as someone who knows a thing or 2 about being confrontational, it never really works out for you and i understand where you are coming from, you made a mistake not understanding that odd abusefilter, even i got hit by it early last December even though i have image reviewer rights and the image wasn't even an artwork (just had the word artwork in the file description lol), personally there are more confrontational people on this project who are somehow avoiding blocks for reasons unknown (inept/inexperienced admins is the only correct answer i assume). Personally, not a fan of lot of users here and admins but its never really a good idea to swear at them...admin abuse is an issue on this project (and every other wiki lol) but i do feel you kinda did deserve a short-term block :P .. Stemoc 12:54, 3 February 2023 (UTC) Hi @Stemoc, hope you're well, I genuinely thought to myself "Well if I didn't shoot myself in the foot with the bs comment then I certainly have now!, I do sort of wonder whether if I hadn't made the second comment whether I would've been unblocked but who knos, You should try Simple.EN for a week - Commons is amazing compared to there :), I do agree though there's still a lot to be desired here!, Haha I suppose I should count myself lucky you're not an admin :P (jokes aside I think you'd make an amazing admin :)), –Davey2010Talk 14:05, 3 February 2023 (UTC) Responding to the ping: if you're asking whether I would block over the "sarcastic bullshit" comment myself (if I were an admin), then no, I don't think so. Hard to say without being in that position, but I think I'd just be annoyed and move on rather than continue trying to help/understand (and would probably think twice before trying to respond to you in the future). Nobody's obliged to respond to requests for help/information, of course, and if someone starts becoming abusive, they can't expect many people being willing to help. But whether I'd block probably isn't the question. More likely it's whether a 3-day block is outside the realm of what's reasonable within admin discretion, and no, I don't think it was unreasonable. Maybe if it had started with a couple weeks just for that one comment I'd expect any reasonable unblock request to be granted or would suggest paring it back, but three days? Meh. That's just my two cents, though. — Rhododendrites talk |  19:13, 3 February 2023 (UTC) Hi @Rhododendrites, That's fair enough, I'm always appreciative and grateful for any help and advice I recieve and I make that known in my replies but in this case I felt El was trying to be condescending and sarcastic than of help, Maybe that wasn't intentional but that's how it came across. Anyway thank you for your helpful reply here, Take care, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 19:37, 3 February 2023 (UTC) COM:AN Hello.

Andy Dingley (talk) 20:25, 2 February 2023 (UTC) Hi Andy, I'll be honest you're the last person on earth I ever expected to see here this evening - I don't say this an editor but as a human being - Thank you Andy!, Your analysis there has summed it up in one imho, I greatly appreciate that but I don't know why you would as we've never really got on as such, I greatly appreciate your help tho thank you Andy @Elcobbola, As I said above I was already riled up with being prevented from overwriting a file - Do you think your initial reply There does not appear to be a filter issue. As you can see, your edit was not disallowed and you've indeed now successfully overwritten the image. Filter 176 is public and you can review the purpose and syntax at your leisure ("I don't understand this filter and what it's supposed to prevent"). Эlcobbola talk 18:39, 2 February 2023 (UTC) (emphasis mine) helped in any way? You simply could've replied with "This is to do with filter x which does x, y and z, your reply (certainly the end part) came across in a very sarcastic way - I'm able to follow discussion and didn't need my reply quoted back to me, You blocked me and then proceeded to state again that i wasn't being prevented[4] - Maybe you're unaware of what the filter does but when uploading with chunked upload, Normally it uploads the file in 2/3 parts and then says complete - Today it uploaded in 2/3 parts and then gave a overwrite error (or maybe this is classed as a "warning") - I wasn't given the option to continue or do anything other than cancel - As I then had to cancel it (because I had no other option) I IMHO was therefore prevented/disallowed from uploading that file, Take a look at the 1st Feb items here - I added an OTRS tag - I was first warned and then given the option to click "continue/save page" - No option existed for chunkedupload other than to cancel or refresh the page (I was unaware retrying a second would work I just assumed I was going to be repeatedly prevented) I have since noticed at the abuse log there is a "disallowed" dropdown menu which when selected and loaded nothing shows however on system or not I still couldn't upload that file although maybe now I'm waffling on maybe that's where the confusion has come from - Because it's on the abuse log as being disallowed?, I don't know ... but what I do know is I could not physically upload that file the first time round. Apologies for the long wall of text but I hope some of it makes some sense and I hope it maybe helps you understand why I was angry and what I was trying to say ?, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 22:48, 2 February 2023 (UTC) Commons:Deletion requests/File:Greek Street W1.

I want to thank you for your participation and input in my recently failed request for adminship. I take every word everybody said in the most constructive way and it is my intention to not only do my best for Commons (as long as time and real life allows me to), but to continue learning and helping out whenever I can. I don't take your oppose vote as something negative, much on the contrary, it is certainly enlightening. Regarding the edit count / activity, I have to say I do visit and check my watch list on a daily basis. Every day, even those days I'm busy in real life. I think I will have to add some other files and pages to my watchlist! (hehe). I do not think the number of edits makes a contributor or their contributions more or less valuable, but I do agree an admin or someone aspiring to be one should be up to some higher standards. Once again, thank you for your vote and I hope to see you again, collaborating around Commons. Have a good day.

The reason for the block is available in the block log as is the name of the administrator who blocked you. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may add {{Unblock}} below this message explaining clearly why you should be unblocked. For more information, see Appealing a block. Please review this against your previous warnings and block(s).Эlcobbola talk 19:56, 10 May 2023 (UTC) @Elcobbola, (Personal attack removed) I'll say it again @Pigsonthewing - (Personal attack removed) –Davey2010Talk 20:05, 10 May 2023 (UTC) Per above, block changed to indefinite. See COM:BP: "use a block duration that is proportional to the time likely needed for the user to familiarize themselves with relevant policies and adjust their behaviour." (bold omitted) Davey2010 has been warned numerous times--in the form of entire AN/U sections (including with headers like "Streak of uncivil behaviour" and "Random vulgarity and personal attacks by user Davey2010") and by admins (not that it matters)(e.g., "Never ever do this again, please. COM:MELLOW" to "fuck off noted"; Please, please, please, stay civil; "Remain civil! You will become blocked next time") and non-admins alike (e.g., this (of course, dismissed with "fuck off"). Davy2010's first Commons block (see null rationale revision) was for incivility, Davey2010's seventh (!!!) Commons block was for incivility, and Davey2010 was been blocked for personal attacks not once, not twice, not thrice, but four times on en.wiki (the person at the keyboard does not change with the project, and indeed he apparently supports ONESTRIKE). Davey2010 has admonished others for civility (e.g., "Please read [[COM:CIVIL (sic) and COM:MELLOW"; "please strike your comments as that's a personal attack"; "Contribute constructively and peacefully otherwise you're going to find yourself blocked here too"; "you're now personally attacking me because I disagree with you. Very sad indeed. Wonder what ANU would think of your behaviour"; and by redaction: "personal attack/misunderstanding statement removed") and acknowledged his behaviour uncivil and worthy of sanction (e.g, "I can be uncivil at times I don't disagree with that" and "Thank you for your message and thank you for not blocking me as I know in all honestly it was a block-worthy comment, Ironically only last week or so I was telling someone else to be civil and mellow"). No warnings, blocks, or Wikimedia experience, are necessary to understand that the following is entirely unacceptable: "I was pinged so I replied you fucking idiot, Anyway fuck off, preferably fuck off away from Commons for good." [5] "Sad sad individual" [6] "Okay if calling them incompetent isn't polite then they're an absolute stupid fucking moron - Does that sound better?" [7] "Fuck off" [8] (reverting a civility warning) "Fuck off Andrew no one asked you to post here so go and do one" [9] "Fuck off" [10] "Apparently it's absolutely fucking fine to comment on my conduct but apparently I'm not allowed to comment on anyone elses, absolutely pathetic" [11] "Go fuck yourself" [12] "[D]on't you have fuck all else better to do ?" [13] "Who the fuck do you think you are?" [14] "Now get the fuck off my talkpage and take your condescending tone with you." [15] "[T]hey're utterly fucking stupid and they apparently don't understand what communication consists of. Again don't leave me messages if you don't want to be pinged you absolute fucking moron. Be gone troll." [16] "[O]fcourse (sic) you're going to be pinged you fucking idiot, May I suggest you fuck off from Commons entirely? - Log off and never return" [17] "Take your anger on the moron who requested the file renames" [18] "GET LOST." [19] "Now get the hell off my talkpage." [20] "Then create an account and do it your fucking self" [21] "[B]ut instead we get this fuckwit who seems to believe a DR is needed over copyvios" [22] "You fucking will be. [...] so why don't you politely shut the fuck up and allow others to chime in" [23] "Cheerio child :)" [24] "Get a life mate. Go and support your Anti-taliban bullshit on a platform that gives a toss." [25] "Fuck you you pathetic twat." [26] "[W]e're always going to come across idiots such as C2020 and to keep these idiots at bay a statement should be added" [27] This despicable nonsense has gone on far too long and, again per COM:BP, an acknowledgement of the issue and credible commitment to discontinue is needed before editing is to resume. Эlcobbola talk 20:21, 10 May 2023 (UTC) FYI I made it clear in that thread no archive site would work but did Andrew care ? No. Understandably I was agitated enough with nothing working and Andrews interference only exacerbated things. Things would've gone a lot better had he not even commented on that thread. I didn't ask for his opinion but either way helping me would've been more appreciated over csd-tag!. As for the above - Context matters - There were valid reasons as to why some (not all but some) of what was said was said. Эlcobbola has blocked me three times in a row so one could think he has an axe to grind and pointless reply!. Either way It's Commons and its viewers that lose out here not me. No unblock request will ever see me unblocked which is a shame, I've put a lot of work into this place and made a good few friends but we'll ignore all that and focus on the negative stuff. Anyway thank you to everyone who has helped and guided me over the years, your help and guidance has always been and always will be greatly appreciated, Take care all, Warm Regards, Dave // –Davey2010Talk 20:58, 10 May 2023 (UTC) Hi, I agree that Andy's comment was out of place. Nevertheless, this is not a reason to insult him. You should learn to express disagreement without attacking others. My 2 c. Yann (talk) 21:44, 10 May 2023 (UTC) I second Yann's two cents, and add one thing: I strongly disagree that "no unblock request will ever see [you] unblocked". I agree with Elcobbola that all that should be required for an unblock is (1) an acknowledgement of the issue and (2) a credible commitment to discontinue. If you wish to return in the future, I would suggest waiting a few months, working on your evident anger issues in the meantime, and then requesting an unblock. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 21:54, 10 May 2023 (UTC) Unblock request Unblock request declined This blocked user asked to be unblocked, but one or more administrators has reviewed and declined this request. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked. Other administrators can also review this block, but should not override the decision without discussion. Request reason: "First and foremost @Pigsonthewing I sincerely apologise for the comment made to you yesterday, You may of had good intentions thinking of the Project and its interests and I respect that ..... however it should've been obvious to you that I was already agitated with the archiving sites not archiving ...... and so your comment at that time only agitated me further. I was stuck as what to do and so for time being (not indefinitely) I felt my way was the best way, I completely understand and appreciate it wasn't the best way but at that time It really was, I still believe and maintain you should not have commented/interfered in that thread but either way the insults weren't needed and I apologise for what I had said to you. To the reviewing admin; I don't believe in making promises I can't keep however I do acknowledge what was said shouldn't of been said and the reply although in a temper only sealed the deal here and again shouldn't of been said either, I will say in regards to my anger issues - I've come a long way from the person I used to be in 2010 and although I'm not perfect I would like to think I'm more perfect now then I used to be - I handle things much much better than I used too, We all get agitated/angry from time to time and we all have our ways of dealing with things (some better than others) Anyway rambling on now - I apologise to Andy and now acknowledge what was said there and here shouldn't of been said, Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 11:44, 11 May 2023 (UTC)" Decline reason: "Users can be unblocked, if they acknowledge the problems and give a credible promise not to continue. The first condition is clearly fulfilled and it's good to see, that you agree, that you have a problem. The second condition – credible promise not to continue – is not fulfilled and in my opinion this is even impossible at moment. Especially this comment after getting blocked shows, that it's not proper time to unblock you. I suggest you to work couple of months (couple of weeks is not enough) in another project without getting blocked or even warned about civility. Then the unblock request is maybe credible, but it is not now. Taivo (talk) 12:29, 11 May 2023 (UTC)" Administrators: This template should be removed when the block has expired. (Block log) (unblock) (Change local status for a global block) (contribs) Well I'm sorry but I point blank refuse to make promises I know I cannot keep, I can sit here and say "I wont ever tell someone to fuck off again, I wont ever lash out in a temper again" but what would be the point ? .... I know I cannot keep that promise so why would I make that promise knowing full well I cannot keep it ? .... That's just setting myself up to fail is it not?. Your decline further emphasises my point "No unblock request will ever see me unblocked". I've seen enough repeated unblock requests so know how this will pan out. Well it's Commons' that suffers in the end, Shame. Well I wont further waste your time so I'm out, Take care. –Davey2010Talk 14:31, 11 May 2023 (UTC) Please cool off for a few days and try again. Regardless of everything else, the quotes listed above by Elcobbola at 20:21 are pretty damning. From a hothead to another, plase take a deep breath and count to 10! -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 14:59, 12 May 2023 (UTC) Unblock request 2 Unblock|1= First and foremost I again would like to sincerely apologise to @Pigsonthewing and @Elcobbola for the comments made as well as to the community for my repeated incivility, So for honesty and transparency - after I got indeffed here I went back to EN and after a month of good editing there I ended up being blocked there for 24 hours for incivility[28] (7 June 2023), After a few days (and after editors told me i needed to change asap) I had come to the realisation that if I carried on being incivil my editing would soon become a thing of the past and that I did need to change, I also realised my supporters were dwindling in numbers and that (as kindly pointed by Floq) the community had at that point got fed up with it and that "I had used my last remaining f off", Editing at any project is a privilege not a right and that privilege can be stopped for any given reason, My first unblock request here missed the mark entirely - I now recognise my incivility is a problem and I now recognise it needs to stop, We now also have foundation:Policy:Universal_Code_of_Conduct Universal_Code_of_Conduct which only makes it a million times easier for me to be blocked. Obviously I'm not pleased about being blocked on two projects but in some ways it was a great thing as it was certainly a wake up call and has made me realise I need to change. Anyway since the EN block I've kept my head low and haven't got in to any confrontations or heated debates there or at SIMPLE EN If I'm unblocked I'll try to be less incivil and when things get heated I will take a break and leave the laptop . of course we all have our off days and like everyone I'm not a perfect human being but I will try to do things differently and will try to be more civil going forward, Thanks, Kind Regards, }} –Davey2010Talk 13:57, 12 August 2023 (UTC) Hi Elcobbola, Hope you're well, Apologies if I've pinged you already, the ping list brings up 2 Elcobbola's so wasn't sure if you were pinged and or whether you've read the above, Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 23:17, 13 August 2023 (UTC) Hi @Mdaniels5757, @Yann, @Taivo, I hope you're all well, Could one of you kindly review my unblock request please as Elcobbola has decided to ignore me (and if i'm honest I'm baffled as to why ?), Many thanks, Kind Regards, –Davey2010Talk 11:38, 14 August 2023 (UTC) I don't see that I was asked a question. The additional bad faith piffle ("Elcobbola has decided to ignore me") is par for the course, and does not help your cause. Эlcobbola talk 11:45, 14 August 2023 (UTC) @Elcobbola You were pinged twice so you could've reviewed the block ? There's no bad faith here - i'm just pointing out you've chosen to ignore me. –Davey2010Talk 11:50, 14 August 2023 (UTC) I don't know what part of "I don't see that I was asked a question" was unclear. Pings are just as commonly used as FYIs, which is the assumption in the absence of a question. I am also busy dealing with hundreds of spambots. That you assume I've "decided to ignore [you]", instead of assuming that I'm busy and currently have higher priorities is entitled impatience and, again, bad faith piffle. Эlcobbola talk 11:54, 14 August 2023 (UTC) Pings are used to grab someones attention - not for questions. Again there's no bad faith here, You had 2 days to respond even to simply say "Sorry I'm currently busy". I certainly am not entitled nor do I expect people to reply immediately (hence why I waited for 2 days for someone to respond). –Davey2010Talk 12:00, 14 August 2023 (UTC) "Pings are used to grab someones attention - not for questions" Agreed. Now read that, and my responses again. I do not owe you "Sorry I'm currently busy", or any other response. Эlcobbola talk 12:06, 14 August 2023 (UTC) I don't see that I was asked a question - You're not making much sense. I'm lost - you didnt reply .... so surely any normal person in my shoes would've thought the exact same thing ?, And I felt it was only correct to state why other people were being pinged. Duly noted I won't ping you again. –Davey2010Talk 12:22, 14 August 2023 (UTC)  Oppose. I said to you: "I suggest you to work couple of months (couple of weeks is not enough) in another project without getting blocked or even warned about civility." Some weeks have passed since your last block, but not some months. Taivo (talk) 11:49, 14 August 2023 (UTC) Hi @Taivo, I know and I've followed that adice, I was blocked on EN in June ..... so that was 2 months ago not weeks?, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 11:51, 14 August 2023 (UTC)  Oppose - COM:BP asks a credible commitment to discontinue. That someone with this outrageous history, including multiple related blocks on multiple projects, and indeed who has continued unabated after this block believes 2 months is adequate is not credible in the slightest. We are well past the point of accepting (empty) promises; we need objective evidence to demonstrate credibility, and that is not on offer--much to the contrary. Эlcobbola talk 12:06, 14 August 2023 (UTC) Indeed and I clearly stated "If I'm unblocked I'll try to be less incivil and when things get heated I will take a break and leave the laptop . of course we all have our off days and like everyone I'm not a perfect human being but I will try to do things differently and will try to be more civil going forward," so I don't understand how that isn't credible ?, I was given the advice of waiting "a few months" by an admin so I was following that advice? With all due respect I waited 2 days for a response and recieved nothing - You even state in your reply above "I do not owe you "Sorry I'm currently busy", or any other response" - A simple courtesy message would've been nice and in turn I would've asked someone much much sooner. My unblock request was honest, truthful, credible and sincere and wasn't an empty promise either - Like I stated my EN block was a wake up and I mean that, I don't say things for the sake of saying things or because "that's what they want to hear" - I meant every word of the second unblock request, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 12:16, 14 August 2023 (UTC) @Taivo I apologise, I've always thought a "few months" were 2 but just found out it actually means 3-5 months. I'll decline this was a genuine error on my part sorry, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 12:34, 14 August 2023 (UTC) @Elcobbola, Quick question how long do you believe I should wait before filing another request ?, I just don't want to return in say 5 months time to be told "5 months is inadequate", FWIW I'm not someone who says things for the sake of saying it nor do I say what people want to hear - I really cannot emphasise it enough but the EN block really was a wake up call and that I do need to change the way I deal with heated issues. People deal with heated issues in all sorts of different ways and unfortunately online for some reason I don't deal with it like everyone else, I just get angry, say some stupid things then regret it 15 minutes later, I did say "If I'm unblocked I'll try to be less incivil and when things get heated I will take a break and leave the laptop . of course we all have our off days and like everyone I'm not a perfect human being but I will try to do things differently" so I just don't know what more I can do or say?, I recognise my incivilty is a problem and offered a way of dealing with it - surely that's better than not recognising/doing nothing at all?, –Davey2010Talk 15:25, 14 August 2023 (UTC)  Support I see no benefit to continuing this. And for those worried about risk of further damage, there is always WP:ROPE. I would also point out that Davey has never been a destructive vandal. The worst that could happen here (and I agree, it's not unlikely) is that they ruffle someone else's feathers again and find themselves banned indefinitely (meaning "definitely"). Andy Dingley (talk) 14:33, 14 August 2023 (UTC) Hi @Andy Dingley, Hope you're well, Thanks for popping by, But how is this me ruffling someone elses feathers ?, I was stuck as to what to do and instead of that editor helping me they immediately jumped on the thread and started CSD-tagging instead so how's that my fault (I did do everything wrong absolutely but help would've been appreciated over CSD-tagging, I just feel there was no need for that editor to comment just like there wasn't any need for someone to comment at my EN thread when I had already resolved that problem too? (neither issues excuse my comments though certainly not!)) Apologies if this comes across combative it's certainly not my intention, Have a pleasant evening, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 15:53, 14 August 2023 (UTC) OK then, Oppose Sorry, but if you really can't see the problem at a "ruffling the feathers" level with saying, What a sad, pathetic and spiteful individual you are! then this isn't going to work. I don't question your description here (I haven't even looked), that's not the point. The point is that part of the basic groundrules for WP has always been that they can be S,P&S and you can think they're S,P&S, but that we all agree to not say it and to not use such terms. We just don't. Even when they are. Because overall, things work better that way. Yes, there's a problem where someone does something egregiously S,P&S, to the point that it has to be challenged. But this is difficult, and has to be phrased carefully to address that action, not the individual. Also doing so is something of a privilege that neither you nor I have access to. Not a few editors have been given interaction bans or other sanctions concerning editors who have then been deservedly perma-banned for the same root cause. But being right isn't a defence. Yes it also causes a problem (see WP) where "pearl clutching" becomes a problem and a cloying niceness whilst secretly back-stabbing is a powerful tactic, especially to support long-established editors who may not deserve such loyalty. But still, we don't do this. This was an arbitrary decision, it's how WP was established, and it's often ignored. But it's not ignored completely, and you are going to be held to it absolutely and watched with a microscope. If you can't work within that, this isn't going to work at all. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:26, 14 August 2023 (UTC) @Andy Dingley I'm so sorry I've linked the wrong edit - Again my comment was NOT okay and was NOT acceptable and I'm certainly aware that it will ruffle feathers absolutely, I linked the wrong edit but I was saying how was this me ruffling feathers ? I was trying to say that I'm not the one who jumped on the ANI thread and CSD-tagged everything, so they had actually ruffled my feathers which in turn I ruffled their feathers does that make sense? I've linked everything wrong and confused myself somehow but no I'm not saying it's okay to say that or that it shouldn't ruffle feathers because that's certainly not true, Again saying SP&S (and similar) is never acceptable and will quite rightly ruffle feathers that's not what I was trying to say - I would never repeat such comments again either, –Davey2010Talk 17:06, 14 August 2023 (UTC) Again there is absolutely no justification for what I said, I had misunderstood Andy's message, linked the wrong diff and then confused myself and everyone else apparently, But again to reiterate and emphasise; such comments are NOT acceptable and of course my incivilty will ruffle peoples feathers that's not what I was saying at all - I was albeit very poorly trying to say they ruffled my feathers which in turn I ended up ruffling theirs but that still isn't a justification and I'm not certainly not using it as one, This wasn't meant to go upside down - was meant to go all smooth and normal, I wish it could've been accepted and it would've saved all this but it is what it is, I apologise for confusing everyone. –Davey2010Talk 17:34, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

FOP table

Hi JWilz12345, I hope you're well, Many thanks for kindly pinging me, Would it be possible if you could copy my comment there please as i'm unfortunately indeffed here right now (planning on returning later in the year hopefully but by then it would've been closed) FWIW I did heavily rely on this page a lot so would like a say but If I can't have a say I absolutely understand,

• Personally I support Cmglee's option - Include all countries and remove the bottom list, As someone whos heavily relied on that page I've never really noticed the list at the bottom so it can certainly easily be missed (I appreciate this only makes the table bigger but imho this is nonetheless an improvement over the current table),

With respect to including all countries - IMHO this should be done providing the middle heading bar (Buildings|3D artwork|2D artwork|Text|Public interiors) is included more –Davey2010^Talk 16:29, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 16:29, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

@Davey2010 noted, I'll make a mention of your input at COM:VP. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 19:35, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Fantastic I appreciate that a lot thank you @JWilz12345 :),

Thanks @Cmglee for making the table headers sticky - I had no idea this could ever be done!, definitely a million times better I think,

Many thanks, Kind Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 11:37, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

@Davey2010 you're welcome Davey 🙂 JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 11:40, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

• Keep - The image is a topic of conversation on someones talkpage at EN and without it the discussion wouldn't make much sense - I'd be happy for the file to be renamed and for their username to be omitted from the file description too, Unfortunately if kept it would still mean anyone clicking on that image would be met with the logs thus showing it's been moved but as I said it's a topic of conversation so would rather it be kept

Failing that I have no objections to this being moved to EN where I'd omit their username, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 16:38, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
