| |
| − | | |
| − | You're not on IRC much anymore - if it's not too inconvenient, it's nice to have everyone online for chatting ;)
| |
| − | In the meantime, some topics I'd like to bring up:
| |
| − | * Please don't give BitcoinTalk a privileged position on the wiki - it is 99.99% trolls, so probably the worst place to be referring to for reviews.
| |
| − | * I disagree with automatically removing things as "cons" without evidence of it (ie, not merely lack of evidence in their favour) - this should probably be discussed on IRC with everyone sometime.
| |
| − | * The sentence "Please use a more established mixer until this one proves to be trustworthy." may prove to be problematic since mixers are most likely illegal - maybe we should discuss just prohibiting them altogether...
| |
| − | * Transactions do not have a [[from address]] - please try not to bring blockchain.info's misinformation to the wiki :)

| − | :I thought I replied to this. I must not have saved it. Anyways I don't have much time right now, but I wanted to say real quick that I am certain of pages like [[Brave Bunny 6x]] et al are scams. These pages all have the same format and have been repeatedly created at the same time by the same accounts. I think [[Bitcoin Blender]] is a real service, but on BitcoinTalk or not, I can't find any testimonials. I will try to be more active on IRC, I look forward to talking to you!

| − | ==Proposed article for deletion==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Hi, I would like to propose deleting the article [[Tonal Bitcoin]]. I have added a justification here
| |
| − | | |
| − | https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Talk:Tonal_Bitcoin
| |
| − | | |
| − | To avoid having this article reappear, it might be best to blank the page while keeping it protected. [[User:Lunokhod|Lunokhod]] ([[User talk:Lunokhod|talk]]) 09:42, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
| |
| − | :See below [[User:Taras|Taras]] ([[User talk:Taras|talk]]) 21:25, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

| − | ==Proposed block of user [[User:Luke-jr|Luke-jr]]==
| |
| − | Hi there, in addition to the above proposed article deletion, with further research and run ins with the "overseer" of that page, I kindly ask that you consider blocking the user account [[User:Luke-jr|Luke-jr]]. I have never once asked such a thing before on any of the wiki's I edit, so I do not do so lightly.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To summarize:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # If you look at the editing history of [[Tonal Bitcoin]], you will see that user Luke-Jr has reverted almost every single edit that has been made to this page. This has been done with no discussion on the talk page. This manner in which the edits are reverted are done so in a fanatical way, and this applies to several users that have attempted to contribute to this page, not just one.
| |
| − | # If you look at the history of the talk pages, you will see that several people have made sensible comments. Furthermore several people have previously made arguements for why this page should be deleted. However, Luke-jr has consistently removed these comments from the talk page, affectively stopping all further discussion, or ending in a revert-war. Though it is common to to have differences in the content of a wiki page, I have never seen a user in my life revert to removing comments and discussions posted on the talk page.
| |
| − | # With regard to the above point, I emphasize that Gavin Andresen himself (!) commented on the talk page, suggesting that this page be removed. Luke -Jr had the gaul to even remove this comment from such a member of high standing in the bitcoin community.
| |
| − | # If you look at this user's talk page, you will notice that he has consistently blanked his page after receiving comments about his edits on other pages.
| |
| − | # If you look at his editing history, you will see that he consistently makes edits that go against community consensus, all while giving little-to-no justification.
| |
| − | # Finally, as seen in the tonal bitcoin forum, he accuses all members that are not on his side (i.e., everyone in the tonal bitcoin case) to be trolling. At the very least, this is not very kind. At the worst, this behavior is itself trolling.

| − | :It's really not my place to block Luke. While I agree that TBC doesn't belong on the list of alts, it '''does''' constitute an article of its own (even if it may need some rewording) and Luke is otherwise a contributing member of this wiki. I dislike that he blanks talk pages for being against his ideals, over the guise of being simply "trolling," however he is right that TBC is in no violation [[Bitcoin:About|of any guidelines on the wiki]] and his actions would not constitute a block on my behalf. Regardless, I appreciate you trying to improve this wiki. If Luke ''does'' get blocked, or TBC is deleted, it will not be my doing.<br/>[[Image:No.png|18px|link=|alt=]] '''Rejected''' [[User:Taras|Taras]] ([[User talk:Taras|talk]]) 21:25, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

| − | :: Thanks for the quick response. If you think that it is acceptable for users to remove comments from the talk page, when they are reasoned and written in the best interest of this wiki, then I don't know if I really want to be part of this community. In any case, I wish you all the best of luck here. It's not always easy to deal with these types of personalities (mine included!).
