Tamira Cole

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

You recently reverted this edit to Tamira Cole and issued a vandalism warning to User:Esterspirit. Esterspirit was the creator of that page and may have been attempting to request its deletion by blanking the page. (see User talk:Esterspirit) This might not have been apparent in Huggle because he/she made some edits without logging in.

I can't fault you for this because I made the same mistake while using Huggle a few times myself. Just try to be a little more careful. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 14:21, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for tagging Esterspirit edit as vandalism (blanking the page with valid content is in most cases considered vandalism, but not always as written in this essay User:Samuel Blanning/Blanking). Redirected it to Tamira A. Cole. Nsaa (talk) 20:26, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

How do you keep Babel in a neat section 'cause mine is just a mess. Thanks! Gp user (talk) 22:00, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi agian. Just place a {{userboxtop}} before your first babel box and a {{userboxbottom}} after the last one. Use {{userboxbreak}} to give a section header. Something like this (some of my code):
{{userboxtop
|align = right
|left =
|backgroundcolor = #FAF8CC;
|bordercolor =
|extra-css =
|textcolor =
|toptext = [[Wikipedia:Babel|Babel]]
}}

{{user no}}
{{user en-2}}
{{user da-2}}
{{user sv-1}}
{{user de-1}}

{{userboxbreak|toptext=Work}}
{{user wikipedia/RC Patrol}}

...

{{userboxbottom}}

WP:AIV report

Latest comment: 15 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, I wanted to let you know I declined your report of User:Worldtaekwondofederation. Those edits were IMO not vandalism, rather newbie edits. I didn't see on their talk page an attempt to discuss with them in your own words what you thought was wrong with the edits, did I miss it? It looked to me like they genuinely wanted to improve the article but maybe needed help getting familiar with policies etc. I think it's worth talking to them, since it would be a real shame if we turned away a potentially good editor who just needs some guidance, don't you? I'm happy to discuss it more if you like or to lend help myself. Peace, delldot ∇. 17:47, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes you're correct. It's always better to try incorporate new editors into all the WP policies. But on the other hand It looks like the person don't act on the messages received on the talk page and the it's difficult helping the user. Nsaa (talk) 18:07, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
How to handle this? The User still removes images, without any explanation or willingness to go into the messages given? I've try to ask the user directly again on the talk page. Nsaa (talk) 18:14, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply and for being cool about it. :) Yeah, it's a tough one when they won't talk back. It might be a case of a newbie getting so many bot and template messages right away that they've stopped reading their talk page! Obviously, if disruptive editing against consensus goes on, DR and then blocking would be necessary. I'll try to engage them on their talk page too, we'll see how it goes. Peace, delldot ∇. 20:07, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

superbowl ads

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Dear Nsaa

I just put up a link to commercial-archive.com's superbowl collection. Commercial Archive / Adland is a huge resource for people who research into advertising and is used widely by scholars and advertising schools to study. Here is why I think you should reconsider:

- Commercial Archive is linked from the US Library of Congress.

- They have the worlds largest collection of superbowl ads (37 years)

- They have the 20 best ads before the SuperBowl.

- They adhere to copyright laws. all ads are posted with permission

_ They have been posting SuperBowl ads every year since 1999.

- You link to superbowl-ads.com who only have ten years, not 37 years.

Kind regards, Miklas Njor miklas /©/ miklasnjor.com (84.55.67.145 (talk) 14:43, 31 January 2009 (UTC))

Templates

Latest comment: 15 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Hi. I appreciate that you and I seem to be in agreement on this birth/death date template issue. I also know I tend to post rambling responses on it. When I first ran across Messerly, he downplayed what he was doing to such a degree, I was not aware of the ongoing discussion at MOSNUM about the actual templates. Like I outlined, he sort of had agreement from two people about a moratorium on "conversion" to the old templates, although there certainly was no effort to convert anything going on at the time. That made no sense. I have read the discussion they had in February many times, and there was never even a direct discussion about birth/death templates and also from what I can see, there was no consensus to change the MOS to include Messerly's templates. Yet, Messerly submitted the template for change based on consensus and it is already implemented in the MOS and he has put it into the infoboxes for biographies based on "recommended by the MOSNUM". He just did this, no one gave approval for the change and he's lied about having never changed to the template in the article. He has. I'm just reiterating this because when I disagreed with Messerly on [[Talk:WP:BIography]] and asked arbcom about it, he kept insisting it be taken back to MOSNUM. Now that it has, he's kept the discussion focused off what he did to get it in MOS, ignored addressing my direct questions about it, and has muddied the talk with discussion about why his template is superior. I knew this would happen. There is no agreement on the merits of his template, much less consensus, and yet, his endrun around the proper process for changing it isn't being mentioned, except by me. I'm just writing to ask you to notice this way too important detail. I think the first thing that needs to happen is that the template be removed from the MOS because it was never approved by community consensus to be put in. Thanks for your support on the rest of the issues. Wildhartlivie (talk) 22:11, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

I've made a request for changing the section back at Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style_(dates_and_numbers)#Change_the_MOSNUM_section_regarding_this. I've a feeling that people try to force non standard template parameters on the world. It's a bit like going for Pints and not liter (0.001 m3, a standard SI Unit) Nsaa (talk) 19:18, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
I added an endorsement of your editprotect request based on the false claim of consensus by J JMesserly to change it when it was made. I'm not sure where to take this next if that is denied, but I strongly feel it it has to go somewhere. I'm tired of trying to discuss the lack of consensus and a couple others refusing to discuss that. That's why I originally didn't want to bring it back to MOSNUM. The bottomline bad faith change would be ignored. Wildhartlivie (talk) 01:40, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Ok. An advise would be to add this sentence to your edit summary like "Removed per [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Airports#Destinations_by_Region]]" and remove the hole section including the header. I'm a bit worried that for some big airports at least this removal should have been discussed before on the airport talk page, so more people can voice their opinion on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Airports#Destinations_by_Region.

New plain text proposal

Latest comment: 15 years ago8 comments4 people in discussion

You have been quiet on the MOSNUM page, and there is a topic I think you should be aware of. Wjemather has a proposal regarding plain text date support. You have raised objections to plain text dates in any template in the past, so in fairness to your point of view and to avoid a repetition of the past episode I'd like to know if you'd go along with his proposal. If so, perhaps there is a path to consensus on this issue. Thanks -J JMesserly (talk) 17:26, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for notifying me. I've been on estern vacation (skiing in the mountains) so I havn't checked wikipedia for the last week. I've made a comment and this may be a good compromise. Nsaa (talk) 21:21, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Nsaa, would you please explain to me exactly what this compromise would mean without all the coding jargon? Does this mean you and Wjemather are considering supporting a change to a template using plain text data? If not, what exactly is this proposal? Wildhartlivie (talk) 00:47, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Apparently my assumption that Wjemather was making a proposal he supported was incorrect. Sorry for the bad information. There apparently was no offer of compromise. I realize you probably oppose the following proposal I have made and I obviously do not believe your main arguments have merit, but you have a principled position and it seems like everyone benefits if everyone participates. Proposal here. Regards, -J JMesserly (talk) 03:20, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
As you know there's been an vacation (and I've been on it for over a week - we Norwegians love taking days off :-). Since I mainly have only accesses Wikipedia by my mobile it's impossible for me to edit lengthy discussion (some stupid edit windows limit on my Sony Ericsson). I think this is a great compromise (date parameters in the same templates). Nsaa (talk) 05:52, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
I don't think there was a proposal. You should note that the proposal J JMesserly has made is to strike any language in the MOSNUM regarding any particular birth or death template, which would open the door to allowing the use of the plain text template with no restriction. There is no consensus in any way whatsoever to support this proposal. Wildhartlivie (talk) 06:00, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Sorry to bug you on your vacation. Wildharlivie is correct- the situations changed. I misunderstood Wjemather's statement. He didn't support it as a proposal and so the compromise collapsed. I'll still try to do the merge idea but I doubt there will be consensus for it, so we are back to separate templates. My new proposal is that since there is no consensus for either passage or any solution at this point, MOSNUM should reflect this community sentiment. Like I said, I doubt you will support it, but I'd hate for anything to that you disagree with happen without your input while you are on vacation as happened to me. Wildharlivie points out that it will open the door to edit warring, which once again assumes bad faith. It is not my style at all. Currently anyone can delete the age templates using plain text templates with impunity. My situation is that since MOSNUM endorses the old templates and there is effectively a no consensus coalition blocking plain text upgrade of the old templates, there is a defacto ban on plain text with the birth and death templates- an outcome that there was never a community consensus for. Anyway, it is an unusual situation that is generic to any innovation that undercuts prior approaches that have guideline support so there may be a prolonged deliberation before any admin action is taken. Not all innovations are good, and you have said as much about the plain text algorithms, but on the other hand it only takes a small minority to also block good innovations. Essentially, with MOSNUM as it is anyone can remove the plain text templates with impunity and will not lose any ANI battle due to the MOSNUM passage. So even if I had the best thing since sliced bread, I'd be screwed. A somewhat perverse outcome from the letter of the law of concensus, but we'll work it out. Interesting process implication for Wikipedia. Anyway, my bet is nothing will happen on this particular issue for a week. -J JMesserly (talk) 06:29, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
I don't believe I have expressed an opinion either way with regard to plain text input, so please do not assume opposition or support. I simply want to get back to a situation where we have just one set of templates. I consider the discussion at MOSNUM to be concerned primarily with the statement regarding templates, not the merits or otherwise of the differences between the two sets. As I have stated many times, a new discussion with as wide an audience as possible should be started to thrash out if and how the "improvements", including plain text syntax (which I think I have shown could be easily integrated), can be worked into the established templates. wjematherbigissue 11:27, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of ScientificMatch.com

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
A tag has been placed on ScientificMatch.com requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Reverting on The Legend of T

Please read [6] and note the use of stolen and theft. This is the primary source that has clarified that this is a crime, not a "leak". ► RATEL ◄ 01:35, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

The police investigation will clarify this. CRU is a part in this case and is then not an reliable secondary source for information. F.ex. it's not a theft if you receive a document/email and publish it. Nsaa (talk) 01:41, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
CRU is the victim of this incident and the owner of the stolen data and is thus the most reliable source on its status. Your "for example" is pure speculation and there's absolutely nothing to suggest the scenario you suggest. Might I remind you that we operate on the basis of verifiability, not original research and speculation? -- ChrisO (talk) 16:04, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
I'm just saying that this is not a case where we know what's realy happend. Do you think a big company ever will admit that their employees for example has added their username and password in emails received by outsiders? So CRU is NOT an reliable secondary source in this instance. Nsaa (talk) 16:26, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Referencing and Climategate

Latest comment: 15 years ago6 comments2 people in discussion

I agree with you regarding the inclusion of the "ClimateGate" reference. I don't know what possible argument could be used to oppose. I saw the edit summary, but it looks like the editor made two changes and the edit summary refers to the "stole" issue.

On ref naming - I like the "reuter20091123" (or better yet "reuters20091123") convention for unambiguous use in URLs, but it is ugly and hard to read by humans, so I prefer a human readable for when humans need to read it. I won't touch the ones you have in that form, but I urge you to weigh in on the talk page, as we have been discussing the referencing, and no one else has objected.--SPhilbrickT 15:06, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Yes I know. It's not easily readable by humans. Maybe Source_YYYY-MM-DD_Author is ok? Nsaa (talk) 15:15, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Looks like you have enough on your plate with the POV debate. Post about that on the talk page, and I'll weigh in. I won't touch any of your references; after the POV issue is resolved. perhaps we can get more input on the ref naming convention.--SPhilbrickT 15:31, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
I will take a break for a couple of hours know. I just got my first tree revert warning, and don't like it. Only on my second revert I revereted. On the first one I added by security consultant on one of the disputed paragraphs. I strongly dislike people removing solid secondary sources, and normaly I see it as vandalism. Nsaa (talk) 15:41, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Join the crowd. I got my first warning ever, yesterday. One of the reversions was a replacement of something the person removing said was an accident. Tread carefully.--SPhilbrickT 15:50, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Did you read Wikipedia:Words_to_avoid#Controversy_and_scandal? At first blush, it appears to be in conflict with WP:COMMONNAME. The first is a guideline, the second is a policy, so in theory, policy should trump guideline, but I wouldn't venture in that direction incautiously.
Yes I did, and I'm not proposing to name the article Climategate, but it should be mentioned in the article obviously. Removing it completely is rewriting/omission of fact supported by a lot of reliable sources. Nsaa (talk) 16:21, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

3RR warning

Warning
Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing at Climatic Research Unit e-mail hacking incident. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 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. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 15:28, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm fully aware of this policy. When people removes referenced material without discussing it? I've taken it up on the appropriate discussion tread at Talk:Climatic_Research_Unit_e-mail_hacking_incident#Name_of_article. Nsaa (talk) 15:37, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Nr Edit(s) claimed to breaking Wikipedia:3RR Comments
1 [15] As far as I can see I've added sources and quotations in these sources. Is this a revert?
2 [16] None of the two references[17][18] given says Stolen, so adjusting the text to reflect this should be quite obvious.
3 [19] This is not an revert, I add a quotation in the reference for the disputed text ", likely an insider,[1]" with this "quote=Judging from the data posted, the hack was done either by an insider or by someone inside the climate community who was familiar with the debate, said Robert Graham, CEO with the consultancy Errata Security. Whenever this type of incident occurs, "80 percent of the time it's an insider," he said."
4 [20] Restoring "statements that are sourced reliably, written in a neutral narrative, and pertain to the subject at hand." is just an action to restore a "disruptive" action, see Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Hkelkar#Removal_of_sourced_edits_made_in_a_neutral_narrative_is_disruptive
5 [21] Removing references without explanation? As far as I see it's an way of removing the importance of the term)
6 [22] Its not an revert, its an moderation of a prior statement: ", likely an insider according to security experts," (bold what was added in this edit)
7 [23] A revert, but it still falls under whats discussed at point 4
8 [24] A revert, but it still falls under whats discussed at point 4
As far as I see the claim of breaking 3RR is not obvious as I can see. Nsaa (talk) 12:42, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
3RR doesn't care what your motives were for reverting, the only major exceptions is for BLP violating material (and that one is hardly ever accepted as an excuse), vandalism (blatant) or reverting confirmed sockpuppets. All of the diffs are reverts to earlier versions of the article, partial or in full, and that is what matters. Try rereading WP:3RR to gain a full understanding. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 20:02, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Since apparently another editor is concerned about the correctness: #1 is a partial revert back to duchamps version which was removed here. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 21:52, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
As the other concerned editor, I've asked Kim how you can revert something on the 25th that was removed on the 26th. I'm guessing someone is just confused, but I haven't yet heard a response, although in fairness, it hasn't been all that long.--SPhilbrickT 01:34, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

What is going on here? See this edit summary: Use British spelling where appropriate when the user removes the disputed naming. I've seen it yesterday also in the same article (correct spelling AND removes disputed sentences.). Nsaa (talk) 16:59, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
As far as I can see «It is disruptive to remove statements that are sourced reliably, written in a neutral narrative, and pertain to the subject at hand.» Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Hkelkar#Removal_of_sourced_edits_made_in_a_neutral_narrative_is_disruptive. Nsaa (talk) 11:39, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

I did not intend to remove the text. It looks like the person after me User:Chris O was editing there. I explained I did not touch that text at Talk:Climatic Research Unit e-mail hacking incident. I have no opinion on it. Bevo74 (talk) 17:04, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Thats fine! Try to be careful then when doing edits (I'm not sure how you managed to remove the Climategate-section in this edit Use British spelling where appropriate. Is it a bug in the wiki-software?) Nsaa (talk) 17:18, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
I'm puzzled by that edit as well. There's so much going on, I'm not sure it is worth pursuing; my guess is that when multiple people are editing at the same time, the software gets confused. --SPhilbrickT 01:29, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

I think we might be able to do something. May I ask if you use any instant messengers? We can speak in detail over them. Macai (talk) 18:05, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Chris is right

Climatic Research Unit e-mail hacking incident protection expired

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, just to let you know, the protection expired a few hours ago for Climatic Research Unit e-mail hacking incident so you don't need to use the editprotected template. One of your requested edits was made by a bot and I removed the template. The other one I removed the edit protected template without making the edit as I feel it may be wise to ensure there's no further controversy over the addition of the primary source. While I obviously won't edit war if you choose to make the propose change, I do feel it wise to wait perhaps one more day Nil Einne (talk) 08:55, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I will wait adding the university press release since itLs an primary source and some have questioned it earlier. Nsaa (talk) 12:02, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

User talk:66.99.220.2 continues to vandalize

Latest comment: 14 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

This user vandalized United States Congress. Many warnings. Why are they still allowed to edit?--Tomwsulcer (talk) 20:57, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

The IP 66.99.220.2 (talk · contribs) has done five disruptive edits today, and I would probably have blocked him if I was an Administrator at this wiki since three Warnings already has been given on the IPs talk page. You can report the IP at WP:AIV (or more general at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents), where an administrator will make an assessment. Nsaa (talk) 23:25, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Re: Don't change discussion treads like this!

Latest comment: 14 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hi. I saw your comment on TS's page regarding this edit. You took offense and asked TS not to change the discussion. However, it is my understanding that TS's refactoring was not only acceptable but is encouraged, as it highlighted the fact that another discussion about Delingpole was in progress. You see, we have at least two prior threads concerning this topic, and it would be nice to know where they all are so we can view the entire discussion as a whole in the archives.

Noindexing talk pages is standard

There's a lot worth challenging, but noindex of talk pages is quite standard.--SPhilbrickT 04:52, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Have you seen this: Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Climate_Change?

They are still working out the list of parties and whom to notify, so you may yet get formal notification, but just thought I'd make sure you knew.--SPhilbrickT 18:24, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the notification. I appreciate that more people will get involved since it looks like some parties 'own' the articles in question. Nsaa (talk) 00:46, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
