SmashWiki:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive 18

The Administrators' noticeboard is intended to be a page to quickly alert the administrators to issues that need their attention.

To make a request or statement, create a new section and provide a neutral, precise summary of events with thought-out reasoning, and, if possible, links to any pages with relevant discussions. It is also a good idea to notify any users involved with the request with a link to the section on this page. Make sure to add new sections to the bottom.

Report vandals and sockpuppets at the top of the appropriate section labeled for such reports using, where Username is the name of the user or the IP vandal's IP address.

For reporting similar and unacceptable usernames, report them here instead of on this page. This is done to keep the reports in one place, and because unacceptable usernames can be more subjective (unlike vandal/spam accounts), which may necessitate discussion (which the linked page will be more suited to handle).

Similar behavior to considering they removed "eligible". S3AHAWK ( talk ) 15:24, August 22, 2020 (EDT)

 * Ah, makes sense. S3AHAWK  ( talk )S3AHAWK_Signature_icon_1.png 17:03, August 22, 2020 (EDT)


 * Memoryman3 is back again? Zakawer2 (talk) 20:22, August 5, 2020 (EDT)
 * Update: This possible Memoryman3 sockpuppet is still active. You guys have an obligation to prevent MM3 from editing this wiki, and yet you still haven't blocked this potential sockpuppet whose behavior is suspiciously very similar to MM3 yet? Memoryman3 has an extremely distinct editing style that sticks out like a sore throat, and he seems to focus on a handful of articles that he wants to revert/edit to match his biased agenda. I have spent a lot of time reversing the damage he has done to SmashWiki for you, and still do to this day. Zakawer2 (talk) 14:43, August 8, 2020 (EDT)
 * I am not seeing a connection other than edits to clone characters, and the IP check was inconclusive.  Serpent SKSig.png  King  15:36, August 8, 2020 (EDT)
 * The editing style is actually very similar to Memoryman3's (and specifically his sockpuppets like LancerBombardia, Mellowness, ANewLeaf and Pontiusbrave). Plus, he uses VPNs/proxies to hide his true identity. You've also banned several of his past accounts before. Zakawer2 (talk) 15:16, August 9, 2020 (EDT)

This could be a false alarm, but this user made 10 edits to the sandbox yesterday. did the same thing before vandalizing and ’s pages after getting autoconfirmed to edit through the protection. Apologies if this is completely wrong though. Gizmo (talk) 18:54, July 15, 2020 (EDT)
 * I would like to add to this as well. All three made edits only to the sandbox, all of which were formatting related. Only difference with this one is they only made 7 edits so they may be unrelated. --CanvasK (talk) 20:10, July 15, 2020 (EDT)

 * Not an admin but I checked the block list and an unknown IP was autoblocked and said it was recently used by Galarto, so it could be the IP in question. actually they just got unblocked. S3AHAWK S3AHAWK_Signature_icon_1.pngS3AHAWK_signature_icon_2.png ( talk ) 00:52, May 23, 2020 (EDT)
 * One more note is Galarto was created on January 11 and the IP was first spotted on January 2. I'll have the admins check the IP and see if this is a sock. S3AHAWK S3AHAWK_Signature_icon_1.pngS3AHAWK_signature_icon_2.png ( talk ) 14:49, May 23, 2020 (EDT)

Edit warring
Removing content from the Dr. Mario page. RandomUltimate (talk) 17:49, September 11, 2020 (EDT)

CanvasK Has reverted my edits on the Arm and Body pages twice now, in a disagreement whether the character links should go to the general character page or the game specific character page of the they are featured in. Though this was vaguely discussed on my talk page, no decision has been made nor has there been a vote on which links should be used. RandomUltimate (talk) 11:46, September 3, 2020 (EDT)
 * By the looks of it, the current convention for type pages is to point the links towards the general character pages, as most fighters are not Ultimate newcomers, and thus shouldn't point to specific games. If you want to change said convention, then the affirmative stance (i.e changing where the links point to) is the one that requires consensus, not the other way around.  Alex the  Weeb  11:53, September 3, 2020 (EDT)
 * Other pages such as the Effect pages as well as others like Reflection and Absorption already use links to game specific character pages. Having the type pages only link to general pages makes it an odd one out and ruins consistency. Also, making things link to game specific character pages does not only apply to Ultimate newcomers. Custom moves in Smash 4 and moves that have been replaced in newer games (such as Sheik's chain) can still apply. Your argument also ignores the fact that CanvasK broke the only revert once rule. RandomUltimate (talk) 12:27, September 3, 2020 (EDT)
 * The type pages appear to use the first convention, while the effect pages use the other. If you want to make the articles consistent, you should create a general proposal to establish which convention should be used for both, before changing any pages. Also, CanvasK is not the one who broke the 1RV rule, as WAR clearly states that one exception to the rule is "If the edit in question violates any of the other SmashWiki policies.", which your edit did, by ignoring CONSENSUS. In fact, you are the one in violation of 1RV, as you re-reverted CanvasK's original revert, which was entirely valid, because you did not properly understand why the edit was reverted.  Alex the  Weeb  12:37, September 3, 2020 (EDT)
