User was recently site blocked indefinitely from the Japanese wiki for bruteforcingedits without consulting the Talk page first (this disruptive cross wiki activity started roughly a month after their initial edits on the EN counterpart), sockpuppetry, harassing JP editors who were against their behaviour with falseaccusations, as well as maliciously revertingedits of said editors (which coincidentally happened during the edit block request).
This user was under the scrutiny of an RfC and an edit block request, both of which were ignored by said user, except for the socks. User was continuing their edits on the English pages during the duration of both incidences. This user engages in aggressive POV-pushing and does not engage in Talks nor do they present information when pressed, as noted here, here and here. I would like to know what measures could be taken against this user. 14.192.210.103 (talk) 23:40, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240902234000","author":"14.192.210.103","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-14.192.210.103-20240902234000-User:Symphony_Regalia","replies":["c-Symphony_Regalia-20240903002700-14.192.210.103-20240902234000"]}}-->
This IP user is an involved editor spreading false allegations. A CheckUser was performed and the sock puppet allegations were not substantiated.
I was blocked based on a comment request where only 3 people gave input, but I believe that to be for reasons of offending Japanese sensibilities. On Japanese Wikipedia I have had a target on my back for a while for attempting to bring the Nanking Massacre article in line with the English counterpart (on Japanese Wikipedia the Nanking Massacre is named "The Nanking Incident" and many of the genocide allegations are scrubbed from the article).
None of this is relevant as I haven't edited on Japanese Wikipedia in a while.

The last paragraph of the CU request by a JP admin mentions "an abnormal amount of logins within a short timeframe" for those accounts, which was the basis of the block by another JP admin. It should be noted that the socks were created days later after your initial edit on the subject, all of which were involved in the same subject matter.
You were requested for comments on both the RfC and the edit block request to defend yourself, would you kindly explain why you chose not to do so? 14.192.210.103 (talk) 01:53, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240903015300","author":"14.192.210.103","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-14.192.210.103-20240903015300-Symphony_Regalia-20240903002700","replies":[]}}-->

You are insisting that Sevens Football should be a redirect to Sevens Football Association and not be its own article. Has this been discussed anywhere? I notice that some of the past editors of Sevens Football are now blocked but I'm not well-informed about any sock issues that may exist. You could link to any SPI reports.

AND, I have been unable to verify the existance of this book:
Browning, Reed. The Duke of Burgundy: Philip the Good. G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1978, no page number given
World Cat has no record of it
Isbn search brings back weird stuff or books by Richard Vaughan and William R. Tyler
Would you, or anyone reading this, be willing to do a search for this information? --Kansas Bear (talk) 02:21, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240905022100","author":"Kansas Bear","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Kansas_Bear-20240905022100-Conundrum","replies":["c-EdJohnston-20240905175800-Kansas_Bear-20240905022100","c-Kansas_Bear-20240905203000-Kansas_Bear-20240905022100"]}}-->
Hello KB. We have an article at Jean de Luxembourg (1400-1466). Why not explain on the article's talk page what you're looking for? I looked at Revue Historique, and their contents seem to be available through JSTOR, including 1923. Is your concern that there is no article in the Revue matching the reference? If Jean fought in the Hundred Years War there ought to be coverage. There is an actual historian named Reed Browning but I couldn't find a book by him about the Duke of Burgundy EdJohnston (talk) 17:58, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240905175800","author":"EdJohnston","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-EdJohnston-20240905175800-Kansas_Bear-20240905022100","replies":["c-EdJohnston-20240905180600-EdJohnston-20240905175800"]}}-->
"Why not explain on the article's talk page what you're looking for?"
The majority of editors don't check much less respond to queries on article talk pages.
"Is your concern that there is no article in the Revue matching the reference?"
My concern is I can't find the article used as a reference in the Revue Historique journals. I was hoping that I had simply missed it. As for the book by Reed Browning, I was hoping I was missing something there as well. It would appear not. I will inquire with TorreyTree for further information. Thanks. --Kansas Bear (talk) 20:30, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240905203000","author":"Kansas Bear","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Kansas_Bear-20240905203000-Kansas_Bear-20240905022100","replies":[]}}-->

The process will have a one week call for candidates phase, a one week pause to set up SecurePoll, a three-day period of public discussion, followed by 7 days of no public discussion and a private vote using SecurePoll.
The outcomes of this process are identical to making requests for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA or administrator elections.
Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. A separate user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.
To avoid sending too many messages, this will be the last mass message sent about administrator elections. If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.
