 * The UK government’s overseas development bank has bowed to calls to end fossil fuel financing abroad by promising to invest only in companies that align with the Paris climate agreement. The CDC Group revealed its new climate strategy, which will end support for the most polluting fossil fuel projects, including the production of oil and coal, and channel almost a third of its spending towards climate finance. The publicly owned investor, which supports job-creating sectors in Africa and south Asia, will end financing for coal mining, and oil and gas production, as well as new or existing power plants and refineries that use coal or heavy oil.  The UK government is under growing pressure to end its support for overseas fossil fuel projects after campaigners revealed that more than £3bn in public money was used to support polluting projects abroad since the Paris climate agreement was signed...
 * UK government development bank to end fossil fuel financing: CDC Group’s climate strategy will stop support for most polluting projects in developing countries, by Jillian Ambrose, The Guardian (2 Jul 2020)

 * The decision to curb support follows an exodus of major institutional investors from the coal industry in recent years, including Goldman Sachs and Blackrock. Investors are wary of supporting industries that contribute to the climate crisis, and may risk the financial stability of their funds. Norway’s $1.19tn (£950bn) sovereign wealth fund, the largest in the world, has decided to reduce its exposure to oil and gas investments too.

 * The UK’s biggest pension fund, the government-backed National Employment Savings Trust (Nest) scheme with nine million members, is to begin divesting from fossil fuels in what climate campaigners have hailed as a landmark move for the industry.  The fund will ban investments in any companies involved in coal mining, oil from tar sands and arctic drilling. But the move puts Nest – a public corporation of the Department for Work and Pensions – potentially at odds with the current pensions minister, Guy Opperman, who earlier this month condemned divestment as “counter productive”.  Nest, which handles much of the pensions of workers saving under the government’s “auto enrolment” scheme, will shift £5.5bn into “climate aware” investments as it anticipates a green economic recovery from coronavirus.
 * UK's biggest pension fund begins fossil fuels divestment: National Employment Savings Trust to shun firms involved in coal, tar sands or arctic drilling, Patrick Collinson and Jillian Ambrose, The Guardian, (29 Jul 2020)

 * The ban will mean that some of the world’s biggest mining companies, such as BHP, can never be part of Nest’s share holdings, as long they derive profits from digging coal. It said it will sell its final holdings in BHP by 3 August. Nest will also seek to reduce its carbon-intensive holdings, such as with the traditional oil giants, while investing more money in renewable energy infrastructure. The fund’s chief investment officer, Mark Fawcett, said Nest was sending a strong and clear message about the seriousness of climate change.

 * SWA Magazine: How about orbital space colonies? Do you see these facilities being built or is the government going to cut back on projects like this?
 * Asimov: Well, now you've put your finger right on it. In order to have all of these wonderful things in space, we don't have to wait for technology - we've got the technology, and we don't have to wait for the know-how - we've got that too. All we need is the political go-ahead and the economic willingness to spend the money that is necessary. It is a little frustrating to think that if people concentrate on how much it is going to cost they will realize the great amount of profit they will get for their investment. Although they are reluctant to spend a few billions of dollars to get back an infinite quantity of money, the world doesn't mind spending $400 billion every years on arms and armaments, never getting anything back from it except a chance to commit suicide.
 * Isaac Asimov "An Interview with Isaac Asimov" by Phil Konstantin, Southwest Airlines Magazine, (1979).

 * The owners of savings not finding, in adequate quantities, their usual kind of investments, rush into anything that promises speciously, and when they find that these specious investments can be disposed of at a high profit, they rush into them more and more. The first taste is for high interest, but that taste soon becomes secondary. There is a second appetite for large gains to be made by selling the principal which is to yield the interest. So long as such sales can be effected the mania continues; when it ceases to be possible to effect them, ruin begins.
 * Walter Bagehot, Lombard Street: A Description of the Money Market (1783)

 * The line separating investment and speculation, which is never bright and clear, becomes blurred still further when most market participants have recently enjoyed triumphs. Nothing sedates rationality like large doses of effortless money. After a heady experience of that kind, normally sensible people drift into behavior akin to that of Cinderella at the ball. They know that overstaying the festivities — that is, continuing to speculate in companies that have gigantic valuations relative to the cash they are likely to generate in the future — will eventually bring on pumpkins and mice. But they nevertheless hate to miss a single minute of what is one helluva party. Therefore, the giddy participants all plan to leave just seconds before midnight. There's a problem, though: They are dancing in a room in which the clocks have no hands.
 * Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway 2000 Chairman's Letter

 * Long ago, Sir Isaac Newton gave us three laws of motion, which were the work of genius. But Sir Isaac’s talents didn’t extend to investing: He lost a bundle in the South Sea Bubble, explaining later, “I can calculate the movement of the stars, but not the madness of men.” If he had not been traumatized by this loss, Sir Isaac might well have gone on to discover the Fourth Law of Motion: For investors as a whole, returns decrease as motion increases.
 * Warren Buffett,

 * ... there are three connected realities that cause investing success to breed failure. First, a good record quickly attracts a torrent of money. Second, huge sums invariably act as an anchor on investment performance: What is easy with millions, struggles with billions (sob!). Third, most managers will nevertheless seek new money because of their personal equation – namely, the more funds they have under management, the more their fees.

 * The city’s mayor signed a bill to eliminate the controversial investments by 2025.  Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has signed into law an ordinance to divest the city from the fossil fuel, tobacco, and private prison industries by the end of 2025. The ordinance prohibits using public funds to invest in the stocks, securities, or other obligations of any company that derives more than 15% of its revenue from those industries. Under the new law, fossil fuel investments are defined as investments in any company that derives more than 15% of its revenue from the combustion, distribution, extraction, manufacture, or sale of fossil fuels, including coal, oil and gas, or fossil fuel products. It also includes electric distribution companies with corporate affiliates that derive revenue from fossil fuels.
 * Boston to Divest From Fossil Fuels, Tobacco, Private Prisons, Chief Investment Officer, Dec 6, 2021

 * Boston is among an increasing number of municipalities, universities, and private foundations that have announced plans to divest from fossil fuels. In late October, ahead of the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference, better known as COP26, Auckland, New Zealand; Copenhagen, Denmark; Glasgow, Scotland; Paris; Rio de Janeiro; and Seattle announced commitments to divest from fossil fuel companies and increase investments to make cities more sustainable. Also last month, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott signed a bill that requires the city’s three pension funds to divest from the fossil fuel industry. Those are in addition to divestment commitments made last year by Berlin; Bristol, England; Cape Town, South Africa; Durban, South Africa; London; Los Angeles; Milan; New Orleans; New York City; Oslo; Norway; Pittsburgh; and Vancouver, Canada. “Cities are at the forefront of tackling the climate emergency and there is real momentum to move investments away from fossil fuels and toward climate solutions,” London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who is chair-elect of C40 Cities, a network of mayors working to confront climate change, said in a statement. “I will continue to encourage more cities to join the movement, and urge national governments and private finance institutions to mobilize more finance to invest directly in cities to support a green and fair recovery.”

 * The College’s endowment will no longer be directly invested in fossil fuels and the Dartmouth Investment Office intends to allow its remaining public holdings in the sector to expire, according to an Oct. 8 announcement. Although this release marks the College’s first formal announcement of its divestment plan, the DIO banned fossil fuel holdings in 2020.  The College’s divestment approach results from two decisions made over a four-year span: a 2017 decision that barred the endowment from making any “new investments in private fossil fuel extraction, exploration and production funds” and a decision in early 2020 “for [the College’s] direct public portfolio to no longer hold investments in fossil fuel companies,” according to the announcement. The move comes after Harvard University announced a similar divestment strategy in September, after the 2021 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report outlined the disastrous effects of continued climate inaction, after the student body presidents of the eight Ivy League schools called on the League to divest in April and after years of activism from Divest Dartmouth... According to the statement, “evidence that correlates the production of fossil fuels with the warming of the atmosphere is convincing and widely accepted.”
 * “College formally announces plan to divest from fossil fuels, by Taylor Haber, The Dartmouth, October 8, 2021

 * A movement to divest from fossil fuel is gaining support among foundations as activists push for funding to be shifted away from coal, oil and natural gas. The call from activists to the charitable world is simple: Ditch fossil fuels and direct your investments into climate-friendly companies and funds.  The worldwide divestment campaign has sought commitments from universities, corporations and other entities. Now, two of the biggest names in philanthropy — the Ford and MacArthur foundations — are reorienting their investments away from fossil fuels, a move that leaders of the divestment movement hope will prove to be a tipping point for the charitable world.... “We’re calling on governments and corporations to act on climate aggressively and commensurate with the science,” said Ellen Dorsey, executive director of the Wallace Global Fund and a leader in Divest-Invest Philanthropy, which is pushing the philanthropic community to dump its fossil fuel investments.... The MacArthur Foundation, an $8 billion organization known for its “genius grants,” pledged two years ago to halt new investments in oil and gas. It went further in September, saying it would switch to U.S. index funds that exclude fossil fuel companies. And it's aiming to change its global index funds to do the same within a year.
 * Fossil Fuel Divestment Gains Momentum in Philanthropy By Haleluya Hadero, Associated Press, Nov. 1, 2021

 * Together, these bylaws prohibit any future fossil fuel investments from entering the endowment....As the terms of these partnerships approach their legally-contracted conclusions… the [investment] managers will move through the sale processes of those assets... In the past few years... the College has found that the investment in sustainable energy companies provides great returns and also allows the College to support new technology developments and make a huge difference.... Our investment team’s analysis indicated that there is a continued growing global shift in demand towards renewable and clean energy,... What we’ve noticed is that investments in energy transitions are now comparable or better than the investment opportunities in fossil fuel companies...Our investment team’s analysis indicated that there is a continued growing global shift in demand towards renewable and clean energy...

 * The landlord, qua landlord, performs no function in the economy of industry or of food production. He is a rent receiver; that, and nothing more. Were the landlord to be abolished, the soil and the people who till it would still remain, and the disappearance of the landowner would pass almost unnoticed. So too with the capitalist. ... By capitalist, I mean the investor who puts his money into a concern and draws profits there from without participating in the organisation or management of the business. Were all these to disappear in the night, leaving no trace behind, nothing would be changed.
 * Keir Hardie, From Serfdom to Socialism (1907), p. 11.

 * Investment of capital, to yield its fruit in the future, must be based on expectations, of opportunities in the future. When I put this to Hayek, he told me that this was indeed the direction in which he had been thinking. Hayek gave me a copy of a paper on 'intertemporal equilibrium', which he had written some years before his arrival in London; the conditions for a perfect foresight equilibrium were there set out in a very sophisticated manner.
 * John Hicks, Money, Interest and Wages (1982), p. 6.

 * The capitalists of a country which manages to capture foreign markets from other countries are able to increase their profits at the expense of the capitalists of the other countries. Similarly, a colonial metropolis may achieve an export surplus through investment in its dependencies.
 * Michal Kalecki (1965) Theory of Economic Dynamics Chapter 3, The Determinants of Profits, p. 51.

 * Senator Menendez seems to think that tax increases create jobs and investment. I believe that private businesses create jobs, and that investment will flow to states with good economic climates and good governance, especially in a globalized economy.

 * As this State's income rises, so does the income of Michigan. As the income of Michigan rises, so does the income of the United States. A rising tide lifts all the boats and as Arkansas becomes more prosperous so does the United States and as this section declines so does the United States. So I regard this as an investment by the people of the United States in the United States.

 * Professional investment may be likened to those newspaper competitions in which the competitors have to pick out the six prettiest faces from a hundred photographs, the prize being awarded to the competitor whose choice most nearly corresponds to the average preferences of the competitors as a whole.

 * All successful investment involves trying to get into something where it's worth more than you're paying. That's what successful investing is.
 * Charles T. Munger (quote at 16:10 of 58:41)

 * The intention of the US found its feature through a clear formulation in the Agreement for the IBRD. The “purposes of the Bank” were defined as follows: “To promote private foreign investment by means of guarantees or participations in loans and other investments made by private investors; and when private capital is not available on reasonable terms, to supplement private investments by providing, on suitable conditions, finance for productive purposes out of its own capital, funds raised by it and its other resources”
 * Nico Perrone The international economy from a political to an authoritative drive p. 130.

 * The Vatican urged Catholics on Thursday to disinvest from the armaments and fossil fuel industries and to closely monitor companies in sectors such as mining to check if they are damaging the environment. The calls were contained in a 225-page manual for church leaders and workers to mark the fifth anniversary of Pope Francis’ landmark encyclical “Laudato Si” (Praised Be) on the need to protect nature, life and defenseless people.  The compendium suggests practical steps to achieve the goals of the encyclical, which strongly supported agreements to contain global warming and warned against the dangers of climate change.  The manual’s section on finance said people “could favor positive changes ... by excluding from their investments companies that do not satisfy certain parameters.” It listed these as respect for human rights, bans on child labor and protection of the environment... Last month, more that 40 faith organizations from around the world, more than half of them Catholic, pledged to divest from fossil fuel companies.  The document urges Catholics to defend the rights of local populations to have a say in whether their lands can be used for oil or mineral extraction and the right to take strong stands against companies that cause environmental disasters or over-exploit natural resources such as forests.

 * … If you want more work and investment, you hold a sale on economic activity by cutting tax rates, thereby reducing the cost of productive activity and increasing the prospect of after-tax returns on work and investment."

 * With joint-stock corporations, investors can place bets on the success of many different companies, without having to play a central management role in any one of them. This allows investors to diversify their financial holdings. It also allows them to capture profits on their investments, without having to get involved in the dirty, troublesome business of actually running a company.

 * It can be argued that the U.S. brokerage and investment banking industry has transformed the modern American stock market into nothing more than a mechanism for transferring wealth from shareholders to management.

 * Mutual funds are an overrated investment heavily promoted by Wall Street.
 * Peter Schiff (2006) Crash Proof.

 * The principles of investment are involved in activities that do not pass through the marketplace, and are not normally thought of as economic. Putting things away after you use them is an investment of time in the present to reduce the time required to find them in the future. Explaining yourself to others can be a time-consuming, and even unpleasant, activity but it is engaged in as an investment to prevent greater unhappiness in the future from misunderstandings.

 * Economic life should be definancialised. We should learn not to use markets as storehouses of value: they do not harbour the certainties that normal citizens require. Citizens should experience anxiety about their own businesses (which they control), not their investments (which they do not control).
 * Nassim Nicholas Taleb (2009) Ten principles for a Black Swan-proof world.

 * I wonder if those who advocate generosity for its rewards notice the inconsistency, or if what they call generosity is an attractive investment strategy.

 * What fools call “wasting time” is most often the best investment.
 * Nassim Nicholas Taleb (2010) The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorismsp. 24.

 * The writer, who as an engineer has spent most of his life in factories, is inclined to look at the basis for investment from a technological point of view... Consider … the class of industrial investments only... The situation is one of entrepreneurs and boards of directors considering, from time to time, various ’possibilities of investment’, such as extra lathes or looms, an extension to a factory, a venture in some completely new product, and so on. It is helpful to think of these ’opportunities for investment’ as existing, in a given situation, in great number and variety, whether they are at that moment under active consideration or not. When any such possibility is considered it is assessed in respect of ’expected profitability’. One may conveniently think of all possibilities of investment as ’quanta’ that can be placed in a schedule of small ranges of expected profitability according to these assessments. The placement of a given ’opportunity for investment’ on this schedule has some ’margin of uncertainty’ (a curious analogy with the case of the quanta of physics).
 * Arnold Tustin (1953) The Mechanism of Economic Systems p. 103; As cited in: Prices Revalued as Information: Circuit Elements, online document 2013.

 * On October 27, University of Toronto (UofT) President Meric Gertler announced the university’s commitment to divest from fossil fuel companies within its endowment fund of $4 billion, citing findings from the United Nations and the World Health Organization on the impending climate crisis which “now demands bold actions that have both substantive and symbolic impact.” This divestment includes a pledge to divest from all direct investments in fossil fuel companies within the next 12 months... This decision follows those of many other universities across Canada and the United States in the past few years, including Concordia University in 2019 and Harvard University this past September....As of 2021, approximately 220 postsecondary institutions have divested from the fossil fuel industry.  UofT’s decision was motivated by its perceived role as a leading academic institution to meet the “urgent challenge” of the climate crisis and its responsibility for the detrimental effects that will “disproportionately fall on students and generations of future students and children around the world.”

New twist from User:BeanGlue
I just stopped another "pelican shit" vandalism from, but I'm having problems reverting the vandalism. Image:WikiThanks.png is being used to insert a rude comment into Aphaia's signatures, especially on new-user greetings, but the edit histories of the pages that include that link show only Aphaia's edits, not any from BG. There are some current performance problems, too, so I can't be sure the histories are being accurated queried from the database, but I'm concerned that the PS vandal has found a way to insert data into the database without it being reflected in page histories. This would render the standard reversion tools useless. We'd either have to revert legitimate edits or manually edit each instance to remove the vandal content. Either way, the page histories would make it look like Aphaia (and anyone else PS targets) is exceptionally rude, because the edits look atomic. I need help on this. — Jeff Q (talk) 21:20, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Abortion
Advertisements of GordonWattsDotCom's activism have been posted along with at least two quotations on the page for quotes on Abortion. One quotation (listed at the bottom of that page) does not seem a valuable or appropriate inclusion into a list of quotations, but is rather an interview segment that seems it was listed simply in order to credit himself. In case of the latter, the credit reads,
 * Attorney Sarah Weddington, the lawyer who argued Roe v. Wade, answering a member of the audience, when she visited Florida State University on 03 April 1996, in a lecture series. Context: FSU student, Gordon Watts, who later gained fame in his close 4-3 split decision to save Terri Schiavo, (and doing better than Florida Governor, Jeb Bush, who lost the same case in a 7-0 shutout at the Florida Supreme Court), asked a question from the audience, as quoted in The Register, 4/3/1996

, and the opportunity was taken to link to two websites about Gordan Watts.

 * In closing, thank you for having kept up to date on all the issues and controversies on the Abortion page here, especially since you do in fact have many more responsibilities here at Wikiquote, but are unpaid. If it is any consolation, I too was unpaid for over a year, while I fought in court for Terri Schiavo's life, and I almost won my case, doing better than the Governor, but guess who got paid more?

The statements quoted here were unnecessary, off-topic and completely beside the points, as reading of the statements to which he responded will reveal.

Wikiquote's descriptions of itself seem to indicate that it's intended for something else than spam postings. (By Dr. K)

 * First of all, nothing of the sort is "in progress": Gordon has not edited Wikiquote for a few weeks now. If you feel there is irrelevant content, you can trim it down and move the bulk of it to the talk page. As for going off-topic on talk pages, this is certainly discouraged but allowed: everyone here has gone off on a tangent, I believe, once in a while. Calling this (or even adding what seemed to be at the very least tangentially relevant information) to the Abortion page "vandalism" is probably inadvisable, and needlessly insulting. While Gordon made some controversial edits, on the whole he has done much to remain civil and he attempted to contribute. Thanks ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 18:27, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Comcast user(s) vandalizing my talk page
For the past 24 hours, my talk page has been repeatedly vandalized by one or more Comcast users. (I suspect a single dial-up user who is calling different numbers.) The pattern is the same each time: they delete my ARCHIVE INDEX and "Concrete Hippo" sections of my page and replace at least one with the text "Thery ntresting...see more / [links:all]". (The last incident just deleted the archive index, probably because I just archived the "Concrete Hippo" section. This leads me to believe it has something to do with the deleted "Concrete Hippo" article, which was edited by, (probably the same person as 62.49), and .) Here are the current offending IP addresses: I've blocked the most recent one (76.148) for a week as a pattern vandal, but feel uncomfortable doing so, as it's my talk page. The network spread is too large to do a limited net block. I'm not sure what to do about this. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 00:50, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, here's another day or so of them: As I've said, I don't feel comfortable blocking people vandalizing my pages, or even warning them unless I believe we will back up the warnings with action, so I'm asking my fellow sysops to help out here.

I guess I was a bit frazzled and not thinking too clearly in my original post here. Of course these aren't dial-ups; Comcast is a broadband cable connection. I'm not too familiar with it, but I suspect this is an attack through open proxies, with the culprit simply scanning for unsecured and unsuspecting PC users in the Comcast network. Do we have proxy blocking enabled? Should we? Meanwhile, I'm surpressing my scruples and have started blocking these IP addresses for 1 week when they pop up. I'd appreciate some help in developing a better response to this problem. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 05:04, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Just a heads up from over the fence. He has created an account - User:CrestvilIe - with a name similar to mine (in lowercase it is indistinguishable but in upper case you can see I am CRESTVILLE while he is CRESTVILIE). He has then proceeded to vandelise pages on wikiquote and the 'pedia.

Despite the obvious silly trick I then proceeded to recieve messages on wikipedia from a new user called w:User:Wazzawazzawaz - who had not even taken the time to create a convincing userpage - accusing me of the vandelism, despite the fact that if they had followed the link on the history page it would have taken them to the imposters page. This continued with my imposter vandelising something, then a few minites later wazzer would reappear and chastise me for it. It seems clear to me that wazzawazzawaz or whatever is a sockpuppet for my impersonater and this is just some silly joke. I must say, however, it is flattering to have both an imposter and a stalker. I must be a mini-wiki celeb.--Crestville 00:24, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Approximately two hours ago I placed a three-month block on the vandal impersonating your name based on what this person was doing in tandem with repeat vandal 216.164.203.90. As for Wazzawazzawaz, this person has been permanently blocked on Wikiquote (as a WoW-related vandal) since the middle of June. - InvisibleSun 00:46, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Crestville (good guy) was referring to WP's Wazzawazzawaz, not WQ's, so I've fixed the link above. Our Wazzawazzawaz did something similar (except for the user impersonation), which is how that account was blocked. I have made the block on CrestvilIe (bad guy) permanent based on WQ:BP, user impersonation clause. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 01:19, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

UPDATE: CrestvilIe has been identified by w:User:Essjay (using Checkuser) as one of many aliases of w:User:216.164.203.90, who is also connected to our Wazzawazzawaz AND the Hotpussy/Coldcat incident below, as well as many other similar sockpuppet vandalisms at Wikipedia. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 01:17, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Here's a situation that concerns me, as it may be a double-backup disruption attempt. Coldcat (a name that doesn't yet exist on WP) created the sockpuppet immediately after creating his own username, apparently to impersonate w:User:Paul August, then proceeded to vandalize using the latter username. Kalki quickly blocked the actual vandalizing user, but as Coldcat created the vandalizing sockpuppet, I blocked him for 3 days and left a warning. HOWEVER, there may be yet another username involved. Just before Coldcat was created, was also created. (Note the parallel structure of the names.) This is another username not currently on WP, so there is nothing to be deduced from the name, although its provocative English meaning is suspicious. (It's like those of quite a few vandals, but there are some legitimate editors who like to tweak the sensibilities of other wikians, too.) Because it's at least possible that a vandal, watching the new-user log, saw the creation of Hotpussy and decided to start his 2-level disruption by choosing a parallel name from a brand-new legitimate user (yeah, right), I've posted a "caution" to Hotpussy that their username may have been used as a basis for some disruption, along with apologies if this is not the case. (I didn't think a block was prudent or even permissable under the circumstances, given the lack of evidence.) But I feel we need to keep an eye on that ID as well, just in case. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 14:42, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I see that we have several sysops involved in this matter already, and that all three accounts (and the IP address beneath them) have been blocked. This is a very complicated situation. Hotpussy, Coldcat, and impersonator Paul August were all created within 3 minutes of each other, August directly by Coldcat. Now the Hotpussy block resulted in a complaint from, who has already been connected to a similar 2-user disruption scheme (see User talk:Wazzawazzawaz). Furthermore, 216.164.203.90 has shown a mysterious ability to evade IP blocks. We need to find out how this is happening. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 15:41, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

UPDATE: I checked out 216.164.203.90 on Wikipedia and found much more interesting stuff there, namely that this IP is claimed by w:User:Nookdog, who is a past vandal but professes to be reformed. Apparently, he is trying to establish a good relationship through work on Wikinews, and has managed to get unblocked on Wikipedia. Or rather, had. As our own Essjay, veteran vandal vanquisher, had unblocked the "reformed" vandal on WP two days ago, I thought he might be interested in this Wikiquote activity. He replied:

 * … I went back and checked into the IP, and there is no question about it: A massive amount of vandalism is coming in off that IP, dozens of accounts created, and Nookdog is right in the middle of it. If we had a checkuser on Wikiquote, I suspect a very similar result would appear.

 * I'll leave the decision about what to do with him on Wikiquote to those of you who are a bit more active, but as for here, I'm blocking the IP and reporting the whole mess on ANI for a decision on what to do with Nookdog. Essjay ( Talk  • Connect  ) 16:35, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

He also suggested the IP unblocking may have occurred because, if I understand him correctly, other accounts created by 216.164.203.90 had non-permanent blocks that expired, removing the block on the IP (as MediaWiki doesn't distinguish between autoblocks and explicit blocks). ~ Jeff Q (talk) 17:02, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

P.S. Essay's and my discussion is at w:User talk:Essjay, and Essjay's report to the Incidents noticeboard is at w:WP:ANI. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 00:38, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Just for the sake of clarity, let me offer a little explanation of what I think happened with the blocks:

 * Someone blocked 216.164.203.90 for a certain period, say 48 hours.
 * Next, one of the sockpuppet accounts tried to edit with that IP, but couldn't because the account was blocked.
 * As a result, the MediaWiki software set an autoblock on the IP for 24 hours. As is the case with autoblocks, it wasn't recorded in the IP's blocklog, and showed up on Special:Ipblocklist as "#XXXXX" (I have no idea what the actual number code was, it's not something you're able to figure out, for security reasons, i.e., so you can't know what IP a given user is using).
 * When the autoblock expired after 24 hours, it cleared the block on 216.164.203.90 as well; to the software, there is no difference between a block set directly on 216.164.203.90, and an autoblock set on that IP but masked as "#XXXXX". The software automatically clears all blocks on a given IP when the first block expires, in this case, the autoblock.

 * Hopefully my explanation is clear; if it isn't, let me know and I'll try again. Also, for those not familiar with the inner-workings of autoblocks, there is a good essay on Wikipedia about them at w:Wikipedia:Autoblock. Essjay ( Talk  • Connect  ) 00:26, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

One more note: I noticed at w:User talk:216.164.203.90 that this IP got another WP sysop to unblock his address at 22:21, 7 July 2006 (UTC), for which he thanked the sysop at 23:02, 7 July 2006 (UTC). 19 minutes later, we got the CrestvilIe storm described above. These accounts were all blocked, but I notice that users Deviant 93 and Blankname were also created after the unblocking, 1 minute before 216's thank-you posting to his WP talk page, and 20 minutes before the <tt>CrestvilIe</tt> incident. Consider the following: This doesn't rise above the level of a general suspicion, but given this vandal's well-established predilection for registering multiple sockpuppets in a session, we may want to keep an eye on these accounts, especially when the block on 216 is lifted. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 01:37, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Blankname is very similar to "MyName", which is 216/w:User:Nookdog's registered name on WikiNews. "Deviant" is a common provocative name for vandals.
 * The pattern of multiple-user creation has been repeated twice here by this IP, and apparently many other times on WP.
 * On 7 July, WQ gained 33 new usernames, an average of 1 every 24 minutes. Shortly after 21:00, we had 5 new usernames registered: 1 confirmed vandal, 2 suspicious usernames, and 2 others (Raze, Metrosenior) that occurred during a 3-minute gap in <tt>CrestvilIe</tt>'s edit history. (That's 1/6th of our new users registered in 1/100th of the day, not unusual for busy days, but very unusual for this day.)

As you can see by looking at this IP user's contribution page, he or she has been vandalizing all day today (8/17/2006):

http://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=63.23.5.5

 * Thank you for the report. A point of correction: this spate of vandalism only occurred over a period of 6 minutes, and the IP has already been blocked for 1 week by Kalki. This appears to be one or more people from the 63.23.x.x network who are engaging in vandalism against specific users and in copycatting a particular pattern vandalism. We are actively monitoring this situation. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 23:28, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I have suspicion the user:Cute 1 4 u is user:Ghettogirl. User:Ghettogirl was blocked indef on Wikipedia for being a sockpuppet of a user that is also a sockpuppet of Cute 1 4 u, who is blocked indef on Wikipedia and other Wiki projects. Please keep an eye on these users. FWN 22:59, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the note. We are aware of the problems on Wikipedia with these two usernames. Thus far, neither nor Ghettogirl has engaged in any disruptive behavior here. We try to give users the benefit of the doubt and generally don't take action on a cross-project "problem" user unless they misbehave on our project. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 06:21, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Sealone. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Sealone~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:34, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Interwiki deletion
I apologize for my inadvertent removal of the Russian interwiki link at Sex. I was in the middle of reverting some mass deletions, and I must have fetched my copy of the article just before you made your "+ru", so that when I saved mine, it "lost" your addition. It was not intentional. Sorry for the confusion. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 05:47, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Jim Risch
Thanks for tha good quote. I just added a stub and a couple of cats to the article per house style. Keep going!--Cato 20:55, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Steve Ballmer quote
I very much doubt the veracity of this attribution by Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten that you posted at Steve Ballmer. If it were really a famous story dating so far back, and it actually used those words, then it would be all over the internet. A Google search for such key phrases as "will only be a handful of websites", "people will use their favorites", "navigate to those destination sites", "nobody will need a search engine", or "except for a few students and professors" turns up nothing but pages that quote the same recent blog post. While Ballmer may have held such views, the alleged quotation looks bogus to me. Do you know of anything that might corroborate it? ~ Ningauble 21:58, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and moved it from the article to the talk page. Maybe someone will find a contemporaneous account of the incident with his actual words. ~ Ningauble 15:42, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Valerie Jarrett
I have added a "" template to the article Valerie Jarrett, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but it may not satisfy Wikiquote's criteria for inclusion, for the reasons given in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikiquote is not" and Wikiquote's deletion policy).

You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Votes for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Fillmore!
I have moved the article you created as "Nappers Never Sleep" to Fillmore!, as it appears to be for an episode of that TV show. I've also done some reformatting. Please take a look at Templates/TV shows to see what information and formatting is used in TV-show articles. Let me know if you have any questions. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 07:46, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Kongsaurus12. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Kongsaurus12~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:27, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 05:51, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
