Well I was gonna slightly disagree and say perhaps you should forgive him a little but AKM speed blitzed me and gave a better analysis of it.

-Using multiple socks
-Harassing people
-Becoming known as the biggest wanker for a verse that has a notorious history of wankers
Yeah, no. I don't care how much time passes, that's more than enough reasons to tell someone to piss off forever. There is a fine line between mercy and idiocy.

Well, I have a rather bad memory. It is not easy for me to keep track of the specifics for these types of issues when there are so many other constant tasks muddling up the details.
Anyway, it seems like this request has been rejected then.

Yeah, as others said, this topic is quite literally the definition of beating a dead horse. Also in addition to my summary, I am completely done having to go through the topic for so long that was already debated so much on another thread on your wall with the same circular arguments. Also, I'm pretty sure Fandom's list of 1045 accounts created using the exact same Email address with one or more accounts on the same list respectively, is face value evidence that he's been lying through his teeth whenever he claims to have never made any socks. And it was also agreed that him sharing the Email Addresses of some of those other accounts could just be him logging in those accounts to change Email address connections just to avoid suspicion and thus doesn't disprove that they were connected at least during the time Fandom took all that time an energy to attempt to give that entire list of merged Xenforo accounts. And you yourself agreed that we are inclined to trust Fandom in considering that list very reliable.

What? Did he really create 1045 sockpuppet accounts (!!!) or did you make a typo? I could see up to 45, but only those spam trolls that severely harrassed us for 2 to 3 years made a greater amount of accounts than what you wrote as far as I am aware.

You misunderstood, HE didn't make that many alts. I simply said on our Google Spreadsheet provided by Fandom that only higher up staff have access to, the number of Fandom to Xenforo account merges total in 1045. There are 3 accounts that are his that are merged; ZaStandoBoi, BlitzSevenTeen, and TheRedEyeOfChaos.
I don't see how I could have implied all of the accounts on that entire list are his; that would imply him, LAS, Sera Ex, Mikoto, ect are all the same person. Just that the list in question I think we should trust.

No way you used the digimon one as an example.
I credited both the creators in the thread and i straight up agreed to copy pasting that thread...what more could you want?
The last two ones i'm unsure about because theyre literally scans and idk who created the profiles

I've spoken with some Digimon supporters, and according to them, @Executor_N0 didn't even give you permission to copy-paste what is his project.

Using the scans on those other profiles is fine but just copying and pasting shit without even changing up the explanations themselves is not only extremely lazy but also slightly plagiaristic in my opinion.
A simple warning should be fine, if he continues then a temp banned from creating CRT's should work.

i thought i was allowed to because the person who posted it in the all fiction battle blog said if he could use it a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT WIKI
and i dont know how the crediting stuff works so i asked dread if she could help....i even pinged both of the creators to see it

This user has tags in his sandbox making it show up in the Tier 0 page (as well as tags in general, which sandboxes shouldn't have)
- 4,277
- 2,798
I'm questioning why this on the RVR, this could easily be handled through the users message wall, the user simply needs to remove the categories and be told about the wiki standards for sandboxes.

This should go to the All purpose requests thread instead.

I let them know they can't do that and left a link to the editing rules.

Kay, i have removed the categories and tier templates.
Thank you, I usually take care of giving the instructions myself but I was busy until now.

Basically what happened was:Thank you for helping out.
Can somebody properly explain thIs case please?
I was looking at a digimon cosmology upgrade blog from All fiction battle wiki. The blog contained a screenshot of a dude getting permission to copy paste it from the original creator of the blog. I copy pasted that into this wiki. I genuinely dont know how crediting works so i straight up admitted to copy pasting the thread and pinged the creator of the blog as well so nothing bad happens.

It appears that the user in question has engaged in plagiarism by copying and pasting content from another wiki without obtaining proper permission. This behavior was evident in a content revision thread where the user attempted to upgrade a particular cosmology using the copied content.Thank you for helping out.

Furthermore, @Robo has acknowledged that they were unaware of the proper procedures, indicating a lack of understanding in the matter. This type of action is not malicious, rather clueless action.
Regarding the issue of plagiarism in general, the outcome will largely depend on the user's ability to respond to any inquiries and their level of knowledge on the matter. It is important to address such incidents seriously to ensure the integrity of the information being shared and to prevent any potential drama.

Thing is tho....plagiarism isn't even on the wiki rules and no one said it wasn't allowed
Also, i can report alot of people for this because they use images in vs threads without crediting the artist of the image

I kindly request that you review the latter part of my comment (or the entire comment in its entirety), as I did not assert that it was a violation of any rules. Thank you.

oh i wasn't replying to your message
sorry for the misunderstanding

Bro this is not even remotely the same thing as what you're doing. Posting fanart in a thread is like sharing pictures with your friends in a nerdy ass club. It's done for entertainment, nothing else.
On the other hand, fanart placed in our wiki pages without credit is at least passively helping boost our popularity and therefore raw numbers. This could almost certainly be considered a commercial purpose, for which most artists won't let you use their artwork for free.

Ok you’re right on that part
But why tf am i being targeted? There are probably hundreds and hundreds of users that copy paste arguments without crediting here and nothing happens to them
- 10,768

no really. There are rules for that. Threads get closed if they are copied.
- 11,310

This is true. As far as I know and can skim from our rules pages, you are not in violation of anything.

PartialPriority54 half-assedly applied a calculation and unaccepted scalings to the Assassination Classroom profiles. I've reverted the changes.
Starting from 2022 November 15, the person in question also made a good number of unaccepted changes to Karma's profile, about which Antvasima warned the user.
I knew about it from the first edit but wanted to give the user the benefit of the doubt since I also saw Antvasima's warning. Now that the user has done it again, I'm bringing it up here.

I wouldn't know, but he ignored my edit and reapplied changes to Karma's profile. I've reverted it again.

I don't think there's anything rule-breaking regarding linking or transcribing something if credit is given. Its only when no credit is given or the user implies they did it that there would be an issue.
Even then a copy-pasted upgrade text isn't bad as long as the OP can just explain why it's valid. You just aren't able to only post a link to another site for a CRT.
For the site itself though plagiarism isn't allowed. Same thing with uncredited non-official art.
