I'm seeking advice on how to deal with an editor who's disregarding consensus and demonstrating WP:OWN. On the [[Harem]] article, Seraphim System added a statement about Jews being the primary provider of eunuchs and heavily involved in Ottoman slave dealings. Every other editor on the talk page said the information was Undue, but Serpahim System has ignored them, stating that it's from a reliable source, even as other users brought up that "The current emphasis on the Jewish role also seems odd. It's not mentioned in any of the general sources on harems I know." and "Why is a section titled “Slavery and the Harem System in Islam” all about the Jews? The Jewish encyclopedia does not even say anything about the harem. Other than the Jewish encyclopedia it’s all primary sources." Serpahim System has ignored everyone and currently the text is still in the article despite unanimous disapproval. The talk page discussion begins [[Talk:Harem#.22Jewish_slave_merchants_supplied_the_harem_system..22]] though it exists across other sections as well. What would be the best way to handle this? Thank you. [[User:Drsmoo|Drsmoo]] ([[User talk:Drsmoo|talk]]) 02:26, 24 April 2017 (UTC) |

Nikita, again, at List of Billboard Hot 100 top 10 singles in 2005
Hi Rob,
Back doing damage at one of the Billboard-type articles I've watched the most concerning them. Might not yet be time to semiprotect that article, but I filed an SPI report over at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Никита-Родин-2002. (Pretty much a giveaway to me when their name is User:Wakemeupwhenseptemberends and predictably do at that article what I was thinking when I saw the name.)

- I'll keep an eye on it. ~ Rob13Talk 05:31, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
- Could it be time for semiprotect after this edit from an IP (will assume another Nikita sock here, though this is an IPv4)? MPFitz1968 (talk) 19:20, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of Ottawa Redblacks
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Ottawa Redblacks you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Casliber -- Casliber (talk) 12:41, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
- Take this as quasi-Peer Review feedback to go on with. I like team articles so ping me if/when renominated and I will be happy to review it. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 18:56, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of Ottawa Redblacks
The article Ottawa Redblacks you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Ottawa Redblacks for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Casliber -- Casliber (talk) 19:02, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
- @Casliber: Thanks again. I quickly fixed that tag issue (obvious case of PD due to failing the threshold of originality, but not an own work as originally marked most likely). I'll work on referencing once I've (hopefully!) passed my preliminary exams. ~ Rob13Talk 23:52, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
- Don't sweat it. Concentrate on your exams! Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 01:09, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
TCC awards navboxes - I missed one
I thought I had put all the navboxes on Touchdown Club of Columbus at TfD but it looks like I missed one, Template:Jim Parker Trophy. If all of them end up deleted could we delete that one as non-controversial? All the same criteria applies. Lizard (talk) 17:54, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
- Nah, it really needs a TfD. ~ Rob13Talk 07:16, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
What to do with an editor who disregards consensus?
Hi BU Rob13,
I'm seeking advice on how to deal with an editor who's disregarding consensus and demonstrating WP:OWN. On the Harem article, Seraphim System added a statement about Jews being the primary provider of eunuchs and heavily involved in Ottoman slave dealings. Every other editor on the talk page said the information was Undue, but Serpahim System has ignored them, stating that it's from a reliable source, even as other users brought up that "The current emphasis on the Jewish role also seems odd. It's not mentioned in any of the general sources on harems I know." and "Why is a section titled “Slavery and the Harem System in Islam” all about the Jews? The Jewish encyclopedia does not even say anything about the harem. Other than the Jewish encyclopedia it’s all primary sources." Serpahim System has ignored everyone and currently the text is still in the article despite unanimous disapproval. The talk page discussion begins Talk:Harem#.22Jewish_slave_merchants_supplied_the_harem_system..22 though it exists across other sections as well. What would be the best way to handle this? Thank you. Drsmoo (talk) 02:26, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
- @Drsmoo: Best thing to do in this situation is ask for formal closure of the discussion at WP:ANRFC. I'll take a look at the discussion and close it shortly, one way or the other. ~ Rob13Talk 05:16, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
