User:Đại Việt quốc/Story of a recognized sockpuppet

Latest comment: 2 days ago29 comments6 people in discussion

The following discussion is closed, and will be archived soon.

This page has a lot of false accusations and personal attacks. Đại Việt quốc opened a checkuser case against another editor (the victim of "Story of a recognized sockpuppet"), but our checkuser DHN has refused to do it due to lack of evidences. This page needs to be deleted. Thanks! Nguyentrongphu (talk) 01:53, 29 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Info That's just commentators' opinion about the another editor you said, so there's nothing the administrator can do on this issue you reported, but since it "targeted" to one of your best partner => Therefore, I agree to get this page deleted. DefenderTienMinh07 (talk) 19:11, 29 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Stop sprouting nonsense. I have no partner in Wikipedia. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 05:12, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Done Commons is not the place for that. If there are issues, they should be reported on the respective project. Yann (talk) 19:35, 29 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Yann: FYI, if such a page is not appropriate, then I'm happy to have it deleted. However, that user TUIBAJAVE has a whole collection of user pages containing "false accusations and personal attacks" against me as well as other users in the viwp project. I actually reported that at vi:Wikipedia:Tin nhắn cho bảo quản viên/Lưu 2023 3#Các trung tâm nghiên cứu xung đột của Khả Vân Đại Hãn, which user:Nguyentrongphu himself concluded that it does not violate anything, neither vi:Wikipedia:Trang thành viên and vi:Wikipedia:Những gì không phải là Wikipedia, despite the those two guidelines clearly indicated the violations. Seems like viwp is quite a ruleless project. Đại Việt quốc (talk) 03:11, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Đại Việt quốc: in short, you are saying vi-wiki is full of stupid drama, so you decided to import some of it into Commons. No. Just no. - Jmabel ! talk 03:29, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Jmabel: Sorry about that. It's just that the fact that such violations being tolerated seems kinda annyoing, and I don't know where to express them. Đại Việt quốc (talk) 04:06, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You need to stop causing trouble, or else, you may be blocked in Commons too. The local admins are paying their attention to you now. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 05:23, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

And what exactly is the trouble you are indicating. Otherwise, this is indeed a false accusation. Đại Việt quốc (talk) 05:25, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You are not clean user, you have a lot of puppets. Do not deny TUIBAJAVE (talk) 05:35, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

User:阮先生，瘾君子 - a sockpuppet of Đại Việt quốc. He use Vietnam government threat to me (TUIBAJAVE Thức đêm thức hôm viết luôn bé hỉ... Đúng là được cho phép dùng tên thật rồi có khác ha :))))) Hôm nay ta đánh giá rất cao và chính thức khuyến khích bé cứ viết nhiều, càng nhiều vô càng tốt á. Vì một nguồn tin đã cho ta biết là cả cái trang vi-wiki bị chính quyền đưa vào danh sách cam, ngang hàng mấy trang phản động cấp 2 vì các bài viết về biển đảo rồi. Để sau này có dịp người ta đào sâu hơn sẽ lòi ra thêm đây là một trang diễn đàn độc hại nữa thì ú... ta nói nó đã gì đâu. Ta xin thoái lui để có gì ngày đó đến ta cũng đã mất dấu lâu rồi, không sợ liên lụy nữa. Bé cứ ở lại viết tiếp đi nhá, viết càng nhiều sau này có gì người ta điều tra càng có nhiều điều nói lên lắm đó) TUIBAJAVE (talk) 05:05, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I emphasize: Đại Việt quốc made a threat to me. TUIBAJAVE (talk) 05:10, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

He have a long history about threat in Vietnamese Wikipedia, insulting religion, use puppets to attack, and make fake consensus. Everybody can check here Yêu cầu kiểm định tài khoản/Đại Việt quốc (that mean: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Đại Việt quốc) TUIBAJAVE (talk) 05:17, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Đại Việt quốc is a LTA in Vi Wikipedia. He has been using socks since 2020. I've blocked probably 20-30 of his socks. The Vi Wikipedia community ignores him because he's a well-known sock and has caused a lot of trouble for the community. He wants to it to become a battleground. He has also threatened the community and said he wanted to stab TUIBAJAVE in real life. TUIBAJAVE is writing a list of pages on LTAs similar to this page in English Wikipedia. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 05:18, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Info I am totally aware that whatever is from other projects should not be brought up here, that's considered inappropriate. However, given that these two people are doing such a thing, I'm going to just leave this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Nguyentrongphu here. Đại Việt quốc (talk) 05:41, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

that's funny. what do you mean, everything about me and about you, not him Nguyentrongphu. Why do you show that thing. For what? TUIBAJAVE (talk) 05:49, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Nice try, don't act like you haven't been blocked in English Wikipedia. In fact, many of your old socks were blocked in English Wikipedia. Also, my block in English Wikipedia is irrelevant here. I'm done with you. I'll let the local admins here deal with you if necessary. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 05:58, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I think it kind of does https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Nguyentrongphu&oldid=1051611662 , given the disruptive edits you have done in English Wikipedia. Đại Việt quốc (talk) 06:09, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

My block in English Wikipedia has nothing to do here. You're disrupting this project. You've been socking a lot in Vietnamese and English Wikipedias for the last few years, and that's a problem. Please stop before you get yourself blocked here too. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 06:13, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Take this page vi:Thành viên:TUIBAJAVE/Trung tâm nghiên cứu xung đột (phiên bản hạn chế)/Chiến tranh Vịt Quắc Sả – Khả Vân lần thứ nhất for example. Perhaps, a Google Translate tool may tell whether the contents in that page is similar, at all, to en:Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse page. Or is it in fact a collection of false accusations and personal attacks against someone. Đại Việt quốc (talk) 05:29, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Stop making false accusation like you did in the past 3 years. All I see is facts. Google Translate is crap because it is not accurate. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 06:08, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

It's not very accurate, but at least it is not biased, right? It can still be understood, to some extent. Didn't you say we should let the admins decide? So why not let them look through it to see the "facts". Đại Việt quốc (talk) 06:11, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No. that's not good for you. Today, Commons Wikimedia know about you clearly. enjoy your time TUIBAJAVE (talk) 06:19, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Sure, sounds good to me. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 06:14, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No. stop to say anything. final, Admin Common attention to you, a man many puppets. TUIBAJAVE (talk) 05:42, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

And, important, you recognize yourself is a puppet at here (in Common): "con rối này (tôi)". And second, you told me that you accept: I can write everything ("thích viết gì thì cứ viết") TUIBAJAVE (talk) 05:56, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This discussion is closed. @Nguyentrongphu, Đại Việt quốc, and TUIBAJAVE: consider this a formal warning. Do not continue to import vi-wiki drama to Commons. The only thing I'm willing to hear further from you on this topic is if one or more of you want to apologize for disrupting Commons, and even then that apology had better not contain a "but". If any of you continue this discussion either here or elsewhere on Commons, I will block you for at least a year. End of story. - Jmabel ! talk 06:43, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Apparently people are not willing to let go of this

https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jmabel&oldid=837613895#vi-Wikipedia_dramas

I am blocking User:Đại Việt quốc for a month and unilaterally deleting the obviously out-of-scope File:MyFirstBlog30Dec2023.pdf. If someone else decides to block User:Nguyentrongphu, I will not object. User:JrandWP appears to have been just trying to be helpful in explaining what is going on, and should certainly not be blocked for this. - Jmabel ! talk 18:25, 1 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Before someone blocks me, let me at least explain myself. First of all, I NEVER wanted to import drama to Commons. I simply reported an incident then defended myself afterwards. After the warning from admin Jmabel, I already let it go. However, I saw a misused picture, so I simply reported Đại Việt quốc for the second time. That's all. If anything, I will just become a victim of collateral damage from reporting a misused image. As you all can see, my last 50 edits in Commons can trace back to 2010. That means I don't want to make any trouble here and have no intention to stick around. You guys will probably never see me again. Thank you for everything!

Changes to Special:Tags

Latest comment: 1 day ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Could an administrator please change the tag for "computer-aided-tagging-revert" such that it can also be "Applied manually by users and bots". Background is that I'm planning to use that tag for this: User:SchlurcherBot/Mass revert computer-aided tagging (further details are also availible on this page). Thanks Schlurcher (talk) 13:45, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I would suggest to use a new tag for this for easier differentiation between manual and bot revert. GPSLeo (talk) 15:57, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

That would of course work as well. Could you set this up and let me know the tag name? Schlurcher (talk) 16:27, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Could someone please generate a tag and set up the corresponding messages?

Add "computer-aided-tagging-mass-revert" on Special:Tags
Change the edit change summary given in MediaWiki:Tag-computer-aided-tagging-mass-revert to "Computer-Aided Tagging mass revert
Change the edit change detail description given in MediaWiki:Tag-computer-aided-tagging-mass-revert-description to "[[User:SchlurcherBot/Mass revert computer-aided tagging|Mass reverting]] revisions created with the [[Commons:Structured data/Computer-aided tagging|Computer-Aided Tagging tool]]

For some strange reason these two files are cascade protected so I can't edit them. Could please anyone add the Template:Urheberrechtlich geschützt? By German law, the movie unfortunately is still protected until 2042. For the png also the Template:Trademarked is missing. Pleaso add this, too. -- Chaddy (talk) 16:32, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Chaddy: not a strange-reason. These files are auto-protected because they are on the Main Pages of en-wiki and zh-wiki respectively. ─ The Aafī (^talk) 16:34, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I know, but this kind of protection even for trustworthy experienced, long-time users is not very reasonable. -- Chaddy (talk) 16:37, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I removed the video from Commons:Auto-protected files/wikipedia/en, and added this template to both files. File:Steamboat Willie.png is protected because of some use on Chinese Wikipedia. I am not sure about the trademark. The character depicted in later versions of Mickey films is still under a copyright, but is there a trademark on this version? Yann (talk) 16:57, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

KrinkleBot readded the file in Commons:Auto-protected files/wikipedia/en, and I don't understand why, as it is not in the Main Page any more. Yann (talk) 17:44, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Yann, It's because images on en:Wikipedia:Picture of the day/On the main pages are also auto-protected. ─ The Aafī on Mobile ^{^(talk)} 18:09, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you so far! But yes, the mouse is still trademark protected. Thus, the template is needed. -- Chaddy (talk) 20:13, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Could an administrator please delete this: File:Insurgent Mexico.djvu

I uploaded it using an importer script. I believe due to an incorrect choice when using that tool, the pages are misaligned with the text layer. I'd like to re-import, but I can't do so unless this file is deleted. -Pete Forsyth (talk) 00:40, 4 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
