Hi Nixon Now! There is no need to create a disambiguation page for only two individuals. It is standard practice to simply have a hat note added to the main biography. I would argue that the priest is the main person in this case (an archdeacon is similar in "rank" as a bishop) rather than a regional leader of a junior party (the New Brunswick New Democratic Party holds no seats). Unless you have an objection, I shall move it back to how it was: IE the priest as the main page with a hat note linking to the politician. Gaia Octavia Agrippa ^Talk 21:24, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

{{ping|Gaia Octavia Agrippa}} there's also the Paralympian. In any case, I would say a political party leader is more significant than a local priest and to support this Jennifer McKenzie has been covered by a number of news sources while the coverage of McKenzie the priest seem to be largely from small church bulletin s and local newspapers. An archdeacon is not in fact similar in rank to a bishop but is below a bishop, basically a deputy to the bishop. If she were a bishop or archbishop there'd be more of a case but I don't think Archdeacons are generally considered to be notable. Nixon Now (talk) 21:39, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

:: The Paralympian doesn't have a Wikipedia article, and as she competed almost a decade ago and didn't win a medal it is unlikely she ever will. The priest has an entry in Who's Who (this isn't vanity press, and provides coverage of the most notable British/UK-related individuals). As stated above, priority is based on the level of notability and this politician is only borderline notable: see WP:POLITICIAN. In fact, as per WP:POLOUTCOMES (eg "Leaders of registered political parties at the national or major sub-national (state, province, prefecture, etc.) level are sometimes considered notable despite their party's lack of electoral success"), if a deletionist came along, the article would most likely fail notability in their eyes and the article would be deleted. In England, the level of responsibility of an archdeacon is equivalent to an assistant bishop in other countries. It is a full time job and they can oversea 100+ churches. Gaia Octavia Agrippa ^Talk 21:58, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Gaia Octavia Agrippa}} There are also many more incoming links to Jennifer McKenzie (politician) than to Jennifer McKenzie (priest). Considering that all current and most past provincial NDP leaders in Canada have wikipedia articles I don't think a deletionist would get very far. As for Who's Who, as a provincial NDP leader she'll be in the next edition of Canadian Who's Who. Furthermore, according to Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Basic_criteria:

:::''People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published[4] secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other,[5] and independent of the subject.[6]

:::''If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability.[7]

:::''Primary sources may be used to support content in an article, but they do not contribute toward proving the notability of a subject.

:::Aside from the Who's Who entry, the sources for the article are authored by Archdeacon McKenzie herself and are thus not "independent of the subject" i.e. there is only one independent source for the article so, frankly, I think a deletionist would have more success attempting to delete Jennifer McKenzie (priest) than Jennifer McKenzie (politician) as it is not clear that the former passes the minimum requirement for notability that there be "significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are... independent of the subject" (emphasis added).

The 2018 leadership election section doesn't have to be blank just because I started an article.

Hi Nixon Now. I apologize that I've just undone a large number of your edits without leaving edit summaries for all of them. I came across your edits when I was patrolling the speedy deletion categories. First, the "original research" and "unsourced" tags don't normally apply to disambiguation pages: they are just navigation aids and don't normally contain any information requiring citations. In fact, we usually remove citations from disambiguation pages. I did see your note somewhere else about proper numbering of the general elections and I agree, but deleting the pages isn't a good solution.

You mentioned WP:ONEBLUELINKDAB in some of your speedy deletion requests, but this isn't a WP:G6 criteria, and I don't think it's the right section of the disambiguation guideline to link to for this situation. I think this is a WP:TWODABS situation. You mentioned hatnotes in discussion somewhere else, and I think you're right that this is the best way to handle this situation, but in this case the disambiguation page should be replaced with a redirect to the correct target, rather than deleted. I'm doing one as an example here: 6th New Brunswick general election. However that's a bad example as we don't have an article on the 1816 general election.

I'm not doing them all because I think there's disagreement over the proper numbering sequence. I'm going to continue discussing this elsewhere. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 16:06, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

• It appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. (See section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) If a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
• It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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.

Hey. So regarding today;s new senators, normally I would be implementing all the changes you are now (that their appointment is pending).

Thanks for uploading :File:Caroline Mulroney.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable fair use disputed|}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=Nixon_Now&namespace=6}} this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:10, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

{{unblock declined|reason=I no longer have access to this (or any) wikipedia account, however I am posting here as this is the designated sockmaster

In 2018, I got into a dispute and was blocked by User:Bbb23. The block was evaded and became indefinite. I offered to not edit for six months and ask for standard offer and commit to use only one account but the response from Bbb23, the blocking admin, was discouraging and left me with the impression that this would be pointless. I subsequently edited as User:Ffolkways and most recently User:Sowny. I created a number of what I think were well researched articles. Some of Ffolkways' articles were challenged for notability. I learned from that and none of Sowny's articles, generally extensively sourced, were put up for AFD. In particular I used my library access to dig up very old election results and extend the current series on Toronto election results back a further 15 years. All of this has been deleted as the work of a sockpuppet.

Except for the fact of block evasion my editing has been productice and largely free of dispute- certainly no more or less so than the average editor. I am sorry for that and for the dispute that led to the initial block.

I would like to come back as a legitimate editor and am willing to not edit for six months and then use only one account and only edit when logged in.

I would need to create a new account as I no longer have the password for Nixon Now, Ffolkways, Sowny etc.

So could I have a path to return to legitimacy?

• You've been given the answer to this more than a few times and you even described it just now. The standard offer to blocked users is six months with no edits (see WP:BMB; this includes the edits you've been making logged out since Sowny was blocked) and then log in to your account and make an unblock request. If you've lost the password for your first account and can't can't reset the passwords for any of your accounts then I suggest emailing the Arbitration Committee and explaining the situation, but don't just make a new account for this purpose.

• {{u|Ivanvector}} I've been given the answer only once and it was that the blocking CheckUser ie Bbb23 could veto such a request so it seemed pointless for reasons that the Arbcom and CUs are well aware of. I'm aware of editing logged out since Sowny was blocked and didn't say otherwise. I am saying as of now (or a few hours ago) that I am willing to desist. What I am trying to ascertain is if I follow said conditions would I have a route to being normalized now that Bbb23 is no longer an obstacle ie would one of you support that request?208.98.222.0 (talk) 20:14, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
• :I'm sorry if something Bbb23 said discouraged you, but nobody vetoes requests, except if a checkuser finds continuing block evasion. So don't do that, and that's really all there is to it. You dug your own hole, but if you come back in six months having abided by the standard offer and ask for reconsideration, I can't promise anything of course but I think you'll find the community more willing than you realize. We want people to edit, not stay blocked forever. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 20:38, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

::Thanks, that's encouraging. This is a dynamic IP so I can't prevent others using it (unless it's blocked) but I will not be editing as an IP or with a sock account. 208.98.222.0 (talk) 20:45, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

|An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nixon Now, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community. {{#if:| Singularity42 (talk) 21:47, 30 December 2021 (UTC)}}
