Art Loria - reply
editI understand your frustration at the actions of 68.194.159.223 that you feel compromise the integrity of Wikipedia pages. Unfortunately, I am not a site administrator so my powers are just as limited as yours. The best I can do is place a warning on his/her talk page, which could attract the attention of an admin. (As for BeatleWill, there isn't such a username. The user who calls him/herself BeatleWill is actually the IP address above.)
Since you're dealing with an IP address (which is not static), I would suggest that you and "BeatleWill" work something out on the Art Loria talk page. You can also have a look at Wikipedia's Dispute Resolution policy; it provides other avenues you can pursue.
I hope this is helpful. ... discospinster talk 17:47, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
Hey there
editI am an administrator, so I'll look into the problem today. Unfortunately, as has been indicated, the user with whom you're having trouble is contributing via an anonymous IP; the worst that can be done is for his IP to be blocked - and it's not impossible that he'd simply take another IP and come right back and keep causing trouble.
I hope that your problems will be easy to resolve. DS 12:07, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

editHi could you rephrase yourself? I'm having a hard time understanding what exactly you are talking about in your claims of Art Loria's notability. Kevin_b_er 22:54, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
For future reference...
editWhen you leave a message for someone, it should be on their talk page, not their userpage. The difference is, when you leave a message on the talk page, this triggers an automatic "YOU HAVE A NEW MESSAGE" alert... whereas I don't check my userpage every day, or even every week.
I'll look into your issue. DS 16:50, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
