Speedy deletion nomination of Vicious Circle (drum and bass group)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Vicious Circle (drum and bass group) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. reddogsix (talk) 02:20, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's life on Wikipedia. You do some stuff, and then the stuff gets removed. Too bad. Gravitoweak (talk) 22:48, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is an outrage! You could have expanded it instead of destroying it! Gravitoweak (talk) 22:17, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

January 2012

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your recent edits to Talk:Chase & Status have been reverted as they could be seen to be defamatory or potentially libellous. Take a look at our welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. andy4789 ★ · (talk? contribs?) 21:06, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I object

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Gravitoweak (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I am not violating any rule

Decline reason:

Whether you have broken any "rules" or not, you have edited in ways which are not helpful to Wikipedia. You have done so in various ways, including harassing a user, using multiple accounts to edit one article in a clear attempt to give the impression that there was consensus among a number of users, and, according to your own account, evading a block on another account. In answer to what you say below, "anyone can edit Wikipedia" does not mean "anyone can edit Wikipedia in any way they like, and continue to do so indefinitely". Finally, have you read WP:NOTTHEM? JamesBWatson (talk) 20:57, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

There is no proof of malicious behavior on my part. I just asked questions related to how this foundation operates. The same did Cla68 and other people in the past. Even if i were Negativecharge, which i am... that shouldn't really matter, since this is the site that everyone can edit, including people like Pinktulip and Ecoleetage. With your usage of bans, you just encourage more abuse. Hey, Pete Demian is here to help, he even has an unnamed admin account! Gravitoweak (talk) 20:10, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I notice a few funny stories:

Kittybrewster, one of the Arbuthnot guys, had a load of accounts. He is still here happy as a pie.

Vintagekits has a bunchload of accounts, and he managed to get back for a while.

User:[email protected] has a truckload of accounts and he's back happy and bouncy.

Giano is known as Catherine De Burgh and a few other names. Cool.

Davenbelle will be hard to catch. He tried to play nice but he lost against the barricade of nuts.

So what is the rule for more accounts than one? Is there a specific rule which goes for all? Gravitoweak (talk) 20:23, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Gravitoweak (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

JamesBWatson, what do you mean with "harassing a user"? I asked Wales some questions about how this charity operates!

Decline reason:

I quick skim of your contributions does not convince me that you are here to build an encyclopedia, and as such your presence is disruptive. The socking makes it worse: ALL of the rules are clear, and for everyone. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 21:42, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Gravitoweak (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Bwilkins, how can you say not here to build an encyclopedia? Every editor comes here to build an encyclopedia. Multiple accounts are allowed, i haven't voted with them. And of course, editors might want to know more about the charity! That's why Cla68 was inquiring people! But he got blocked too, despite having many more edits than me and making contributions which are thousands of times better than mine!

Decline reason:

Sadly, not every editor is here to build an encyclopedia. Vandals are one example - users who create large numbers of sockpuppets to disrupt the project are another. You fall into the second category. There are legitimate reasons for operating a limited number of alternate accounts, yes, however I do not see that any of yours were created for those reasons. Furthermore, tenure and quality of edits do not excuse disruptive conduct, and bringing up another editor's actions in your unblock request will not help you in any event.
