Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment/Sheynhertz-Unbayg

message: It seems pretty obvious that Sheynhertz is not a native English speaker. Would it be easier to reason with him in Hebrew? (obviously his native language is Japanese) Mo-Al 06:23, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Admittedly he would be the most fluent in Japanese, but speaking in Hebrew would be worthy to try. A relevant proposal; how about bringing Jewish people and ask them to talk to him? In my impression on Japanese Wikipedia, his view is strongly influenced by Jewish view of world, though I am not sure he has grown up in a Jewish culture or he studied it intentionally and learned it. --Aphaia 20:16, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I'll try contacting him in Hebrew. Mo-Al 22:33, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps his ISP could be contacted with our concerns about his mental health.  This case might justify some sort of intervention, by some sort of professionals.--Batamtig 07:16, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Well at least it should be possible for his ISP to contact him without publicly disclosing information. --Batamtig 08:16, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  New response from him on his talk page 

message: Sheynhertz-Unbayg has made many requests for translation into English from Hebrew on Wikipedia:Translation_into_English/Hebrew.  The articles he has requested in the past have mostly been quite important and deserving of translation, and indeed I have answered one or two of his requests.
Since around July, however, he has requested a large number of translations of biographical articles.  Some of the requested articles are truly useless. For example, it seems that he took every article in the Hebrew Wikipedia about someone with last name Schor and asked that it be translated. This indicates to me that his onomastics obsession may be becoming a hinderance.  This is sad, especially since his previous requests have been so useful. nadav 08:45, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  My interaction with him 

message: What should a page on onomastics of a name look like? S-U's typically look like several concatenated disambiguation pages containing only lists of names, a purpose better served by List of people by name and ordinary disambiguation pages. I would like him to stop taking disambiguation pages and adding lots of other names to them, our "interaction" about this today can be seen at Jud and Jud (onomastics). As usual, he referred to my revert to make the disambiguation page conform to the MoS:DP as "vandalism". Kusma (討論) 12:50, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Onomastics pages 

message: I have started blocking Sheynhertz-Unbayg for hos persistent refusal to change his behaviour. While he did communicate with me about content, he never answered to any communication about his methods and why they are wrong. I don't see anything to do but escalating blocks to (hopefully) make him cooperate. Kusma (討論) 09:15, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sheynhertz answered by the usual nonsense and by block evasion using two IPs and the sockpuppet . I don't quite know what to do any more. Kusma (討論) 17:50, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Kusma, I believe you've done your best.  We've all tried to help and failed.  Nothing more can be done. I don't think he should be allowed to continue any longer.  He has refused for a long time now to change his ways or communicate at all really.  His contributions, if they were positive in the past, are now harmful.  He should be blocked completely. If arb committee is next step, then we should go ahead with that. nadav 21:17, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

text: I have blocked his IP ranges for six months, see User:Kusma/Sheynhertz. Note also his personal attacks and threats at :de:Benutzer Diskussion:Kusma and another suicide threat. Kusma (討論) 16:59, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
