Hello, while I was patrolling the NPP, I discovered that a user created this draft article. Draft:Battle of Fort Port Tewfik This draft article is about the Yom Kippur War and violates the ECR. Also, you warned the same user only 2 days ago. [1] Do you have any ideas about this topic because I don't know the exact Arab–Israeli topic bans? Kajmer05 (talk) 15:28, 6 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I warned them and reverted some other ECR violations. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:57, 6 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I think they've violated it again. This article explains important details about Israel. [2] Kajmer05 (talk) 20:43, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a violation. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 21:20, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thanks. Kajmer05 (talk) 21:21, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Well, does this now count as a violation? They've added links related to the Arab-Israeli conflict, [3][4] as before. [5] Kajmer05 (talk) 12:06, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked for one week. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:14, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

SFR, just to keep you in the loop, they continued to repeat the behaviour by creating an entirely new article in the topic area after the block was lifted, so I have given an indefinate block. I don't see any chance of it getting lifted without a TBAN at minimum. CoconutOctopus talk 11:25, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up, and that's normally how I handled it too. I'm normally pretty open to an unblock once they make it clear that they understand why they were blocked and that they'll stay clear from the topic. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:48, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely, although given how many warnings they've already had, I'm not the most hopeful. CoconutOctopus talk 11:49, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

	The Admin's Barnstar
	Not for one thing in particular. Seems like several times recently I've seen someone making a good call to resolve or explain something and then thought "Oh, it's SFR again". — Rhododendrites talk \\ 19:51, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much. I'm sorry we didn't have a chance to talk after our brief introduction at WCNA, I was looking forward to chatting. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 22:09, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

		The Barnstar of Diligence
		For your general handling of recent chaos & drama, both in & out of contentious topics, all while still performing much needed maintenance few will probably notice. I hope you know that you & your efforts are appreciated. - Butterscotch Beluga (talk) 16:38, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, much appreciated. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:40, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Holy shit, a lot has been happening and it doesn't seem appropriate for me to just put a pixely jpeg of a barn ornament here to commemorate. Suffice it to say people see what happens and appreciate those who are helping. Andre🚐 17:09, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wut? -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 22:11, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've declined the ridiculous appeal, but in case there may in the future be a more reasonable appeal, can you let me know what the master account is (by email if necessary), or is that something which can't be revealed? JBW (talk) 22:24, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

One of the Tishreen007 adjacent socks , maybe. Although, I may have just recognized their user page stuff from an IP I blocked around that time, which makes sense because I'm normally decent at noting masters when possible ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 22:34, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks for that information. However, while you were posting it I was spending quite a bit of time searching and checking editing histories, at the end of which I'd found some other blocked accounts which appeared to be this person. JBW (talk) 22:42, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Had I blocked the accounts? If I recognize it from an IP I won't tag, and sometimes I just don't recall the name of the account. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 22:52, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, after digging a bit, looks like averagekurd or tishreen or one of the others that all look pretty similar. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:18, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(In the editing history of this page you'll see another comment, which I've retracted. It was there because I wrote my message before seeing your comment above, and did an inadequate job of editing it to take your comments into account. JBW (talk) 22:46, 16 November 2025 (UTC))[reply]

@ScottishFinnishRadish: Ach, so! -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 23:25, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The sockpuppet is back with that same edit that has been reverted over and over. [6] Basically removing a sourced content and replacing it with unsourced junk. ~2025-28056-21 (talk) 02:13, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ScottishFinnishRadish, I believe this needs attention as it's actively ongoing. Kpop777 appears to be engaging in some very obvious sockpuppetry. ~2025-34261-18, who is also ~2025-34148-16, made an edit request here to reinstate edits by Kpop777[7][8][9]. His obsession is using the derogatory term "Sub-saharan African" as well as slavery related information. The first edit of ~2025-34261-18 was inserting "Sub-saharan African", which was also Kpop777's very first edit to Wikipedia.[10]

Currently he's sockpuppeting on the talk page of Black Japanese so heavily that he's confusing uninvolved people. In addition to the two above he also is using ~2025-34434-85 and ~2025-34162-00 which are both him. Something he likes to do is manufacture consent by pretending to talk to himself. Notice this edit here where he mentions himself "Kpop777, you could change the sentence" to which he replies on Kpop777 with "We both agree to say "Sub-Saharan African" instead of just African."[11]

This is actively ongoing (see American folk music) and the backlog on the sockpuppet board is so long that it seems to be backed up for weeks or almost a month. EkkoJinxZaun (talk) 14:20, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've responded at the SPI. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:51, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've been on the recent WCNA safe space teams. Thanks you very very very much for doing the right things in advance in 2025 and speaking plainly in your Noticeboard comments. I'm too late to reply there; it's been archived. I appreciate also the extensive wise suggestions and commentary afterward by the people responding to you. (For future conferences, I'm inclined to fixate on (a) anyone who threatened violence or in-person trouble recently; (b) to pay attention to the probability that anyone attending has a weapon, which is partly a function of the jurisdiction the event is held in, and do bag checks if they might; (c) more extensively include ArbCom or stewards and also the local team in the security review. There is a limit to what we can do, but the local team should be able to make exclusion decisions. Would welcome your guidance.) Thank you very much for shining light to help our safety. -- econterms (talk) 19:44, 18 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much, I appreciate it. Feel free to email if you have questions or want to discuss the security situation. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:11, 19 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @ScottishFinnishRadish:, I wrote a new draft, it is Ayumu Kasuga, and I hope that you can see and review it. And Thank you :) علي العالم (talk) 12:13, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello I am not ScottishFinnishRadish but I would like to tell you that it is usually inappropriate to ask people to review your drafts. The Articles for Creation reviewers reviewer them, and if yours is not reviewed yet, then you should just wait. I looked over the draft and it seems to be rejected because you do not have citations for everything. Please make sure you have enough citation so everything is verifiable and neutral. For guidance on how to do this, here is a guide on building articles from sources User:Easternsahara_{review this} 00:22, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

~2025-36796-88 and ~2025-36482-25 look to be socks of User:~2025-36670-48, who you recently banned for vandalism. See edit history at Adlington, Cheshire. Dave.Dunford (talk) 12:04, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorted, thanks. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 13:56, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I see they paid you a visit...tiresome. Dave.Dunford (talk) 23:14, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey,

Is this article PIA-restricted?

I didn’t see any indication of that on its talk page, but I wanted to check with you.

The reason I’m asking is that I want to start a name change discussion to Islamic Group in Lebanon (its name in Arabic is الجماعة الإسلامية في لبنان) IdanST (talk) 18:27, 29 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My read is that yes, it's covered. A third of the article is about the Arab/Israel conflict, and there's an infobox on their military arm that lists Israel as an enemy. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:54, 29 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks for the reply. IdanST (talk) 20:45, 29 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

hello, thanks for blocking the edit warriors from this article. Would you mind restoring the non vandalized version of this page? Somrthing extremely fishy seems to be going on, see the articles talk page as well as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#WP:SLEEPER,_WP:PGAME,_edit_warring_on_locked_topics that another user opened. A group of people seems to be communicating outside of wiki and coordinate their edits ~2025-37405-16 (talk) 14:38, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The version you want is not the "non-vandalized" version. BMWF (talk) 14:52, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No sir, actually you and your socks removing longstanding content is vandalism. See the articles talk page ~2025-37405-16 (talk) 14:56, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi SFR,

On your userpage, you mention that you’ve been experimenting with LLM-assisted cowriting. This (and human-machine teamwork more generally) is a particular interest of mine (I’ve been cowriting stuff with GPT off and on since way before it was a household name), so I’m curious as how precisely you go about crafting the raw dredgings of our mutual stochastically feathered friend into the fairly well-written (although visibly unchaotic as to sourcing) products that you link. Could you expand on your process?

I’m particularly interested as to how much (if any) time and effort it saves compared to a traditional writing approach. I find it generally difficult to do large-scale content writing (e.g. taking a stub all the way to GA/FA) and a labor-saving method that allows me to concentrate on editing rather than writing paragraphs upon paragraphs from scratch would be right up my alley.

Looking forward to your reply, RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 22:00, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
