About Michael P. Fay article

I was only rude to them because I go through the trouble of explaining each of my edits so that users looking through have a firmer grasp of what specificly was changed, only to have it continly reverted by some one who fails to adress there reasons. And I'll have you know that I was very polite in my first 2 edits, I explained specificly the contents where unsorced and that with out proper citation, they were needlessly damageing to Michaels character. It was reverted. As they failed to give an explaination and I already gave mine, I again removed the drug claims. Again, this was reverted, still with no citation that It ever occured. Again, I politely explained that with no citations it served no purpose on wiki other then to slander Fay, stating that "Untill a link is put stateing this as fact I will continue to revert it back". This was, then again, reverted with absolutely NO explaination. This is the 4th time this has happened and THIS, my friend, is when I decided to be rude. Let me tell you something. Accusing someone of butan abuse should be something taken VERY seriousely, as It easly damages a person, specificly one whom the media sympathises. Id also like to thank for takeing the step to bring in citations. Perhapse I did judge its validity to quickly without prior knowledge and know that it is not my intention to cencore or troll wikipedia.

Excite

Would you please refrain from removing valid information from the Excite page. Not only are you reverting to a page with clear plagiarized content but you are citing incorrect pages as justification.

I am a former executive of Excite@home with extensive information on the subject. If you wish to dispute the facts then please do so in a proper forum.

Photos

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Good work on the Armand Hammer United World College of the American West article. I'm just wondering where you got the photos. Did you take them yourself? If you did you should note that on the page of the image and also mention which image license it is released under. If you did not take them yourself you need to get permission from whoever did before they can be used on Wikipedia. - SimonP 20:00, Jun 5, 2005 (UTC)

Hello there. You have proposed the article Dougg Cheal for deletion without providing a reason why in the {{prod}} template. You may be interested to know that you can add your reasoning like that: {{prod|Add reason for deletion here}}. This will make your reasoning show up in the article's deletion notice. It will also aid other users in considering your suggestion on the Proposed Deletions log. See also: How to propose deletion of an article. Sandstein 17:10, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Harlem

I live in Mount Morris and like it, so I don't appreciate the catty comment in your edit summary. As for why I included it, I was expanding on something that was already in the article -- and I think it's perfectly appropriate that an encyclopedia article about the neighborhood should explain where it is, which includes its boundaries. I'm happy with your edits to what I wrote -- although I'm going to put an abbreviated definition of the borders of Morningside Heights back in, because boundaries defined by streets give more clarity than just "Morningside Park" -- but you could just have easily edited me without being a dick about it.

Sorry about that...but I am confused=

Re Kaavya Viswanathan -- I am very confused about what just happened. I removed a section that was clearly vandalism (about the "pwnage" of this individual). However, the edit history reflects completely different edits than that which I actually made. Do you have any idea what could have happened? Thanks, and I apologize for any confusion.

I think i just realized what I did -- I followed a link from a message board to an old version of this page and, without realizing that I was editing an old version, removed the offending passage, thus sending tht article all the way back. I apologize for not paying attention to what I was foing. Xoxohthblaster 22:47, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kaavya Viswanathan

I take exception to the way you're handling the article.

My motivation for my other two edits was to subtly nudge the article back toward being a biography article and not the current events article it was turning into. My rationale is better explained on the talk page. But I'm not here to explain myself.

You reverted and noted your issues. I disagreed with the revert, but I still believe it was proper, and frankly, it was such a small matter that a talk page entry didn't seem to be merited. I re-edited it, added a caption that would seem to be less "cruel", and not only do you revert, you threaten me with the three-revert rule. Seems you automatically assume I'm some vandal and don't take into account that there might a valid reason behind my changes. It also seems like you're establishing yourself as the arbiter of the appropriate things to say about Viswanathan, without the admin privileges to back you up.

Frankly, if you wanted to make your preferences clear, you should have hit the talk page yourself and explained yourself better, instead of acting like an 800-pound gorilla on the revert button. And a side note, there is no need to default into hostility when you disagree and accuse people of improprieties for simple disagreements, from what I've seen on Talk:Gina Grant, you've done before. hateless 06:16, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Allow me to respond to this:

Now for your ad hominem attacks against me. You dislike my changes to the Gina Grant article and accuse me of being like a "school marm." My changes to Gina Grant were similar to my changes here (and to Malcolm X and Harlem and a number of other pages). Specifically, I stepped in with copious research to resolve contentious issues. On Visnawathan, I looked up every article about her and the book which appeared in the U.S. press before the plagiarism scandal. On Grant, I completed a similar survey of articles about Harvard's rescission of her position in the freshman class. The research takes hours, and you are the first person ever to complain about it.

No, I do not have any objection with what you wrote about Gina Grant, albeit as an aside I sense a bit of a self-congratulatory tone in your retort. Specifically, I pointed at the talk page. I think you went a bit too far in criticizing CagedRage in his edits. Saying CagedRage "disparaging the existing literature" is hyperbole, and frankly you seemed to ride roughshod over him and won your way because he wasn't interested in your hostilities. That is not the nature of Wikipedia, that is not the way collaboration is supposed to work. I suggest you assume good faith from others next time, especially if they do something you disagree with.

In my mind, school marms are relics of the past, authoritarian figures wielding rulers who are intolerant of being questioned. Stereotypical, maybe. But for people like that getting help or any recognition of their hard work here? Good luck. hateless 04:48, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For what it's worth, I'm female. Thanks for the support, hateless. CagedRage 22:28, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reminder...

When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 22:13, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Prod of Category:Malcom X's Eulogy

Hi -- Just two friendly reminders. First, please use an edit summary when you propose an article for deletion. Edit summaries are always good to use, but especially important for prod, because prod tags should never be readded and the only easy way to check is to look at the edit history for helpful edit summaries. Second, I deprodded this page because it's not an article and WP:PROD is only supposed to be used for articles. I have listed it at categories for deletion instead. Thanks!

Seong Sil Kim v. NYCTA

Hey, UUCP. I can't find the NYT article on Westlaw, so I have removed the cite. If you could please point me to it, I would appreciate. Otherwise, I am concerned that the case is a NN tort case. It's a pretty big verdict, but no records were set and it's otherwise unremarkable. I also noticed that some sentences are verbatim from the NYLJ article, which is of course a copyright problem. I am itching to propose it for deletion. What do you think about that? - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 04:19, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Right. Fine. I will clean it up and explain why the case is notable. Please tell me the cite in Westlaw or in Lexis, your choice, and I will restore the NYT source. Cheers. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 04:26, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, nevermind the last. I need to bone up on my westlaw skills - and you need to leave nicer edit summaries, it seems. But yeah... Cheers. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 04:27, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your nomination of Image:KaavyaViswanathan2.jpg for deletion

FYI, image deletions are handled on Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion and are done differently than articles. BigDT 12:44, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, in this case, because the fair use claim was that it was a magazine cover and it clearly is not, it may be eligible for a speedy deletion. I have tagged it as such. If an administrator rejects that claim, it may need to be listed on WP:IFD. I have also tagged your AFD for a speedy deletion since it is in the wrong place. BigDT

Your deletions on Further in March

Hey there, if you look at www.allmusic.com you will find evidence of releases for both band's named Further, i think they are both jammed into the same allmusic article but they're there. The Australian band has released another album on fierce panda in the UK also. Can you think about editing the Further page to give some choices on articles, or different uses of the word? It has now been taken over completely by another band's album title called 'further', it'd be nice to have all three choices there. Let me know what you think. Thanx Sebelbrandt

Hi Uucp! As the user who saved Further from spending it's life as a misspelling redirect, I'd like to add my 2 cents to this!

I did not just come by and "take over" the article! Before I did any edits, I did extensive research on both Further bands and did not find sufficient "evidence" to qualify them for their own article(s), just as you did. They do seem to be combined into one allmusic.com page, but that alone doesn't "qualify" them for article(s). The most coverage they get seems to be here on Wikipedia via broken/inaccurate/outdated links!

According to the Albums Wikiproject: "Do not pre-emptively disambiguate! When there is no other encyclopedic use of the album title, the article should reside at the normal name." A misspelling redirect does not really seem like a more valid "encyclopedic use" than a "qualifying" article.

If in the future either or both Further bands qualify for their own article(s), we could make Further a disambiguation page, but until then I don't really see the need.

Happy Wiki-ing! =D

Amaristee 23:23, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

PS - I do plan on expanding the article in the very near future! It is somewhat stub-ly! =) Amaristee 23:24, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

why is that "most" notably?

Re: Earl Butz, "Most notably" in this case is the one with the greatest documented response. I don't think it was a judgement call to call it most notable, but don't mind the revised version either.

As far as i can tell the whole article needs to be rewritten. The POV language and lack of sources is a huge problem in the article. i tried to clean up the first section but did not have time for the whole article. David D. (Talk) 18:54, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Malcolm X from ...

I've been watching the Malcolm X article for some time, and I have reverted my share of vandalism. I think you have done the same.

In that context, I don't understand why you (without any justifying comment) reverted my reverting of a user who deleted all the longstanding categories for "People from..." to which Malcolm X properly belongs, except his birthplace of Omaha.

The "people from" categories are for places of residence, NOT specifically about birthplaces. See Wikipedia:Categorization of people, which says "The place of birth is rarely notable." This is a striking example of a place of birth being very little relevant to the subject's life.

But I'm not arguing that Omaha should be deleted, rather, that the others should be restored.

Lansing, in particular, is a notable place in Malcolm X's history as being where he spent his entire childhood and where his father was perhaps murdered. It was near Lansing where he attended high school and was discouraged from his ambitions by a teacher. Moreover, Lansing has a state historical marker on the site of one of his childhood homes. Kestenbaum 02:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[responses copied from my talk page]

I think we ran into some kind of technical glitch; it was not my intent to revert your change. I was merely changing his place of death from Harlem to Washington Heights, Manhattan. Both your edit and mine are time-stamped to the same minute, and mine must have trampled yours inadvertently. I certainly will not stand in the way of your including the other cities in his category list.

Unrelated, my serious beef with the article is that it is basically a summary of the Autobiography, which is, like most autobiographies, a selective and biased summary of the man's life. Changes made by editors in the past to include information from other sources have been swiftly edited out by others who reason, perhaps "this new material is less favorable to Malcolm X than the only source with which I am familiar, therefore this editor is biased and must be reverted." This article will not be good until that is fixed. Uucp 10:30, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, and I have fixed the categories (including alphabetizing him on category pages under X instead of M). Yes, strongly agreed that other sources should be used and taken seriously. Kestenbaum 16:34, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Refs

Uucp, there's no need to keep removing spaces in front of refs. They may be written without or without spaces between the punctuation and the ref. Although many Wikipedians write them without a space, publishers write them with one, so either is acceptable on Wikipedia. Cheers, SlimVirgin ^(talk) 15:32, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There's no policy or guideline saying there should be a space, or saying there shouldn't be. I personally think it looks odd without a space, and if you look at any book published by mainstream publisher, you'll see a space. It doesn't look so bad on WP when it's after punctuation, but it looks very odd when it comes directly after a word^[1] like that, because the ref ends up appearing to press against the letter before it. It's the square brackets that cause the problem. Anyway, I'm sure there are worse problems on Wikipedia to worry about. :-) SlimVirgin ^(talk) 15:41, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

request for immediate help

This is a request for immediate help from Kmaguir1 07:28, 30 August 2006 (UTC). If you have time, I'd like you to examine the Bell Hooks article and talk page. It's a scholarly article about a controversial writer, someone who drew the ire of a conservative commentator. They wanted me to go get the quote from her book, and I did that. But now, they're arguing it's not notable. As a fellow AfD frequenter, you will know that of all the meaningless academic trivia included on her page, that what they wanted to exclude was really ridiculous: that she says as an opening to her book, Killing Rage, "I am writing this essay sitting beside an anonymous white male that I long to murder". This may in itself be notable, but David Horowitz wrote about it in 100 Dangerous Professors, and it was written about on front page mag, and all the citations are given on the page. I would appreciate your help--I'm contending with some very difficult Marxists who are attached to her work, and think that they're defending the liberal cause, but really, they're just keeping out material that is very easily notable.-Kmaguir1 07:28, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. In the interest of disclosure, I'd like to inform you of a conduct RfC on Kmaguir1. It's here: Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Kmaguir1. If you have time and are so inclined, feel free to provide comments there. Meanwhile, if you go to the bell hooks page, please do join in the discussion. If you read the Talk page and look at my and others' edit histories, you'll see that the picture is not quite as Kmaguir1 paints it. (I have no idea who the Marxists are he's referring to, and I've also edited his text for improvement, and left it in the article, vs. what he's saying here.)

Bottom line: welcome to bell hooks, be aware of the RfC, and feel free to join it. Cheers,--Anthony Krupp 17:26, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Avrocar (aircraft)

You have now removed my "latest developments" comments about the connection to the Moller experimental flying saucers at least two times. What is the reason for the continued removal? I am not connected in any way with Moller International and am not making "marketing" testimonials for the company, as has been suggested. My personal interest in the subject of the Avrocar stems from research and writing that had been undertaken 1999-2001 based on an extensive collection of Avro Canada company documents obtained from researcher, the late Les Wilkinson. I have spent hundreds of hours interviewing significant designers, engineers and technicians involved in VTOL developments which have led to the publication of one book, many academic articles, screenplay research and consultation for four documentary films on the subject. Please respond otherwise I will consider the constant changing as vandalism. Bzuk 08:31, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Avrocar continued...

Although you have equated the Moller reference to a dubious relevance, I believe that Dr. Moller was pursuing a similar design in his orginal experimental craft. I merely wished to provide readers with an appraisal that the buried ducted fan concept was not entirely abandoned. The fact that Moller did utilize a similar fan arrangement and saucer shape to later discard this premise is significant.

Even though I referred to original interviews, the published works refrenced in the article do collaborate on the Avrocar-Moller connection. I have further revised the Avrocar article so that readers will better understand the far-reaching R&D that John Frost was undertaking in the 1950s and 1960s.

Fair use rationale for Image:REFCO Logo.gif

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:REFCO Logo.gif. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NAHID 08:34, 4 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Logo use is claimed, not generic fair use. Uucp 12:16, 4 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Harlem

twice now, you've reverted my edits, and i believe without merit. according to the wp:mos, references should follow the punctuation. if you dispute my interpretation, please make it known by opening up a discussion on the talk page. --emerson7 | Talk 21:51, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

your obstinance is absolutely arresting and i am just stunned by your unwillingness to yield on this topic. you continue to state your opinion, even when faced with the text of the wp:mos AND centuries of precedence, you continue with this. please, help me to understand what i'm missing here. --emerson7 | Talk 21:35, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

i just don't see how you could possibly come your conclusions even after explicit instructions to the contrary. 1) the <ref> tag and templates are flexible enough the adequately explain any ambiguity in your references. one can even go so far as to include the entire text of whatever is being clarified. 2) precedence is exactly what dictates the policy! wikipedia did not 'event' footnoting....the wp:mos is merely following standards that reach back before the invention of the movable type. check out either one of the books, "the chicago manual of style," or "strunk's the elements of style." both are excellent reference books no editor should be without.

all of the above notwithstanding, as i bang away here at my keyboard trying to reason with you, i see you have once again reverted my corrections. after completing this note on your talk page, i will ask you once again to stop. if you revert again, i will report you as being clearly and intentionally disruptive and for violation of the wp:3rr. --emerson7 | Talk 01:13, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A request for mediation has been filed with the Mediation Committee that lists you as a party. The Mediation Committee requires that all parties listed in a mediation must be notified of the mediation. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Harlem, and indicate whether you agree or refuse to mediate. If you are unfamiliar with mediation, please refer to Wikipedia:Mediation. There are only seven days for everyone to agree, so please check as soon as possible.

Starter marriage

There is no truth in the statement that a starter marriage lasts less than 5 years and has no children. The definition originally given was not accurate, so I corrected it. You reverted it, suggesting my change was "bitter." It wasn't bitter, it was correct and substantiated by the source cited. Please do not revert it again, since doing so will be to provide readers with wrong information. Thank you. 209.247.22.164 13:06, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The point of Wikipedia is to be an encyclopedic compilation of published work. It is not a forum for insiders to report their personal history on events. Take a look at the Wikipedia article on Original Research. If your inside knowledge has been documented and published, then the insights would be welcomed in Wikipedia, as long as they where delivered as a neutral explanation of facts. Statements like "Management That Did Not Keep Its Promises" are a little over the top. --Knulclunk 01:23, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

UUCP - response to your comment on my talk page

You said: "We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits, such as those you made to The Castro, are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the hard work of others. Thanks. Uucp 22:35, 9 August 2006 (UTC)"

The changes I made to the Castro article were in response to biggotted vandalism that was already in place, although I agree that I should have only made a simple edit. It was also early in my use of Wikipedia and I have since refrained from such unconstructive conduct. Thanks for your insight. 216.38.135.218 19:35, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What's with the hostile edit summary?

Hey, man, what's with the edit summary "Editor the other bob may not like it..." on the Don McLean article? I don't "not like it" -- I don't really care. I'm just trying to improve articles when they look like they could be improved -- that's not meant as a personal affront to anyone. If you disagree with the edit, revert the edit...I won't mind, because it's not my article. But calling me out in an edit summary -- to be frank, maybe it shouldn't have but it kinda pissed me off. So what's the deal, man, did I do something to tick you off that I don't know about? If so, I'm sorry -- but if not, please don't do that anymore. --TheOther Bob 18:34, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Peter F. Paul

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Peter F. Paul. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits. I am considering mediating your case but i must ask that you and User:W1z4rd do not continue this edit war.

Heya...re: Ben Elton

Just thought I'd drop you an explanation as to why I killed it again. It's just way too unbalanced and is not reflective of what the public perception of Ben Elton is. Keep in mind there's only one sentence about his awards yet, even with that cull, a paragraph and a bit about why people don't like him. I only chose those criticisms because I thought they were most appropriate and reflective of what others had said. Feel free to drop me a note but in the meantime I might try and find some more praise so we can get it balanced. Cheers RutgerH (talk) 14:31, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

May I ask?

Regarding John Corcoran (author), out of curiosity why wasn't this article sourced with third party references? I found a plethora but find it strange wikipedia would allow to let that stick with out proper sourcing. There wasn't a issue with the info just the lack of sources could make the page appear to be advertising when it is for a rather notable person, especially when the only link is to their own personal business' site. Not jumping you so please don't take it that way. Just wanted to know if it was an oversight or something.Hell In A Bucket (talk) 06:05, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just curious not raising an issue, I happened to see him speak almost ten years ago at a school of mine so I was curious and like I said just a tad surprised there hadn't been more on there.

Re: Today's featured picture

Today's featured picture, currently on the main page, contains content that you added in 2005.[2] The text in question lacks inline citations. At the time, you listed your sole reference as The Encyclopedia of Evolution, 1990, R. Milner, ed.. Is it safe to assume that this reference supports the claim that the work was criticized because it depicted "Americans being chaotic and lazy and Jews being greedy." If so, let me know.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 01:25, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit War

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Harlem. Users who edit disruptively or refuse to collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue. In particular the three-revert rule states that making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the talk page to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording and content that gains consensus among editors. If unsuccessful, then do not edit war even if you believe you are right. Post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Mcastle2003.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

As no-one has taken up my query I have put in a request for discussion and deletion of the redirect .If there is a connection I would be happy for the redirect to remain if this was explained in the article Spinney Hill (talk) 10:07, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
