Im the Libby vandal

[edit]

and yes I will continue to update and change the libby section in Wikipedia....

Your heavy reference to Grace and the Asbestos issue and its connection to Libby seem mean spirited.

An effort on my part to make a reference to a issue and yours to make the issues the focus of the town of Libby is counter to the sprit of Wikipedia....

I will continue to "vandalize" the section until real discussion about the town of Libby is addressed - not the actions of a american company. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 17.221.13.236 (talk) 18:13, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just in case you don't read my talk page--I know, why would you--so boring, so infrequently updated, I thought I'd move the comment left by the above unregistered user made at my talk page to your's since he's addressing you. Enjoy!
Hey WikiDin - We all agree that the article needs to be re-done.... For some reason it seems to slant to what has happened vs what the town of Libby is about. I found several articles about W.C. Grace and Asbestos. I will continue to make update and changes to the article until in the spirit of Wikipedia is fair and balanced. Oh just in case - yes the IP is Apple..Its my day job. Both my mom and dad have passed away, and like you, I would not own stock in a bankrupted co. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 17.221.13.236 (talk) 22:19, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rockford Files

[edit]

Hi! I'm not sure exactly how to send messages in Wikipedia, but I see you sent me one about the Rockford Files info on the "Gabby & Gandy" pilot. I actually work for a TV station (WWME, Chicago) that airs the Rockford Files, and so a quick call to my buddy at Universal confirmed the info.

I also don't know how to add citations, so if you could put the info in and add a footnote as needed, that would be great! : ) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kbtv123 (talkcontribs) 20:26, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Cool page, and go Suns. By the way, you might want to see Wikipedia:WikiProject Phoenix Suns. Have a nice day, Basketball110 what famous people say 01:22, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for creating it. I had put a redlink for it on Storm King Mountain ages ago and was hoping someone would create the article. I'll actually be driving by Storm King in Colorado this summer and am hoping to stop at the memorial trail for the firefighters who died. If so, I'll snap some pics for the article. --JohnPomeranz (talk) 15:52, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Elevation

[edit]

1. Unlike inland cities and towns like those in Colorado or New Mexico, elevations of downtowns or city halls do not have much relevance for coastal cities. An elevation range might be more relevant.

2. Per MOS, units used in Taiwan should be in meters, not feet translated to meters.

3. In well-organized articles, inserting "Elevation: xxx" as a stand-alone paragraph seems very much inappropriate context. (In a stub, it probably wouldn't look weird.) If one elevation value is to be added, it would be more appropriate in the infobox or places other than the main text (like the latitude/longitude coordinates).

Copper Mining

[edit]

Thanks for your corrections to Copper mining in the United States. I am sometimes a little sloppy when it comes to proper reference format. I guess that I've used so many formats that it's difficult to be consistent. Anyway, I made your correction to update the principal copper-producing states. Your list of top US copper mines looks great, and I think that it deserves a separate article. The article might also include other lists, such as: 1) other US copper-producing mines, 2) former or inactive US copper mines, and 3) major US copper development projects. Thanks. Plazak (talk) 21:23, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I follow the USGS convention, which does not capitalize "mine." Thus it is the Bingham Canyon mine (not Mine), and so on. Plazak (talk) 00:58, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lists of copper mines

[edit]

You are right about references: unless the mine has a wiki link, the info should be independently referenced. Plazak (talk) 13:13, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Vandalism

[edit]

I really dont know what you mean but ummmm...ok, have a great day :)

... ThomasSalazar Chat?! 1:01 MT, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Not in this case the Residences at Packard Place are in Development they have all right to put that building and the chant tower on the list even tho the chant tower hasnt begun construction yet.. but we must have these two buildings on the list for lots of reasons and the buildings will each have only 30 stories. Construction of the Residences at Packard Place have already begun. So its really not Vandalism..well in this case anyways.
... ThomasSalazar Chat?! 1:09 MT, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
But ya however changed it from 30 to 40... didnt really have there facts straight and was probably just messing around i see what u mean now, sorry about that but we should warn them..

Citations for Kayne Gillaspie Article

[edit]

Hello:

Thank you for the guidelines for citations. I have added citations to the Kayne Gillaspie article per your request. With this being my first introduction to writing for Wikipedia, I appreciate the feedback. As a journalist, I know the importance of citation. I just thought external links would be fine enough. Thank you for the correction.

Audrey Hepburn

[edit]

Hello WikiDon. I agree that it would be nice if the page could be semiprotected. As you say Audrey does not deserve it. I also have the page for the Red Panda on my watchlist and this shy creature gets even more vandalism than Ms Hepburn. Go figure. I will warn you that, in my experience, unless a page is being vandalized almost continuously from a number of IP's that most admins won't protect it. But it is still worth a try. If they chose not to protect it then we will keep up the good fight against those *#%!@**! vandals. Cheers and happy editing. MarnetteD | Talk 10:53, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats. I noticed that PhilKnight protected the page, though it does not say for how long. I had not read your user page this morning so I did not realize that we are almost neighbors. I often take U.S. Route 285 to visit northern New Mexico as it is such a gorgeous drive. Keep up the good work and congrats again. MarnetteD | Talk 16:09, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I thought about the Nike joke too. I mean what is the head of that corporation doing taking the time to become an admin on Wikipedia? It looks like he gave it indefinite protection which is nice. Another admin might take it off one day so we will still want to keep an eye on it but it will be great that she will be left alone for the time being. I live in Denver so my 285 trip takes me through the mountains to South Park, then along the Arkansas river past Salida, then over Poncha Pass, through the beautiful San Luis valley, then past Mt Antonio and on south to Santa Fe. Sometimes I will take the trip east thru Taos and sometimes west from Antonito to Chama and then south thru Abiquiu. Beautiful drives all. It might have been the research that you did to show how much vandalism had taken place over the months that tipped the balance to getting the page protected so thanks for taking the time to do that. :-) MarnetteD | Talk 19:48, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I see you warned this IP. Are you sure this is bad-faith vandalism? This IP has made good edits to submarine topics before and I'm not sure this is vandalism.

If you're not sure, I encourage you to rescind the warning and apologize.

Thanks, --A. B. (talkcontribs) 20:57, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It might be a bit of puffery, by someone who obviously listens to Santo a lot, since most of what it says is true. I agree it needs citation. But what I saw was an IP address deleting something with no explanation. I took it to be vandalism. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 23:05, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh ya man there are Five Lowe's Hardware Stores in Northern New Mexico.. So what is the problem mister? I actually know i'm a surveyor in Northern New Mexico. Thomasalazar (talk) 03:38, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that is correct..as a matter of fact, when i worked at the Lowe's in Espanola for a couple months there was a large board in the staff room that showed how many lowe's employees there were in the state the board showed 6,000+ workers if i remember. It was odd when i didnt see lowe's on the list so i added it because i knew there were a large job contributor to the state. As well added there have been 2 new lowe's stores added in northern new mexico i have noticed. Thomasalazar (talk) 03:48, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well Not right now, if you live in new mexico you should probably know that, and getting a job at lowe's too :) Thomasalazar (talk) 03:58, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ThomasSalazar Chat?! 11:39 NM (MT), 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Ya yup true onn that man, well i have this:

Don Wiviott is a Green-Builder contractor for the city of Santa Fe, New Mexico he is also Democratic candidate in the 2008 congressional election for the 3rd Congressional District of New Mexico. He is seeking the Democratic nomination for the seat being vacated by current Congressman Tom Udall. Udall is vacating the post to run for the senate seat being vacated by retiring Senator Pete Dominici. The primary will take place on June 3, 2008.

My apologies

[edit]

I must have misread something. The sentence seemed to refer to Dollar being in True Grit not The Shootist. Please reinsert it and let me offer my apologies for not taking more care with what I was doing. Cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 22:30, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Again apologies if my note above was too curt. I was in the middle of trying to fix, as fast as possible, a whole bunch of booboos that I have made in adding infoboxes to British actors today. The stuff about Dollar is very interesting and should be part of The Shootist page. If you could flesh it out so that others don't make the erroneous assumption that I did I think that would be great. Thanks for taking the time to fill me in on this info. :) MarnetteD | Talk 22:46, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

[edit]

Thanks for the kudos Wikidon - I may finally be getting the hang of Wiki ref. I'd love to see the poem sometime.

Right now I'm struggling with editing out the last secion on Washita - cutting it down, actually. Seems as if removing 2 or 3 refs voids the whole last two sections on notes and refs. i need to figure this out. Thanks again!

I love your poem! - Reminds me a bit of Auden's "Shield of Achilles," a truly great antiwar poem. I always thought, though, that most of those guys in blue were really a bunch of (largely Irish immigrant) poor dumb bastards who got themselves killed (and as I point out, not nearly enough of them at Washita to call it a "battle") by the real villains, the bastards who had bars and stars on their unis and not chevrons.Sensei48 (talk) 07:41, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: References > Citing sources

[edit]

When you make additions, like you did to Harry S. Truman, please cite a source. See: Wikipedia:Citing sources. Thanks. ~ WikiDon (talk) 18:43, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I did not make additions, I just merely put two pieces of information that were already there into one (somewhat) easier to read sentence. (Or at least, this was my intention.) Your beef is actually with the people who put those original pieces of information into the article in the first place. --Champaign (talk) 18:52, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have attempted to research who was/were responsible for putting the information on Anderson Truman's middle name and how it's spelled in the article on Harry S. Truman, but there are just too many entries to go through (I tried to sift through something like 2000 edit entries that chronologically preceded my own without noticing a single reference to the section on Truman's middle initial; it was just too overwhelming) without the ability to only see an article's history applicable to a section without seeing the history of the entire article. So, I gave up. But it appears that you fixed the problem in the article anyway. I have just sent the Wikipedia staff an email about the possible necessity of adding the ability to see a section's history. I'll let you know if I hear anything back. Thanks. --Champaign (talk) 19:48, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Samuel Goldwyn Studio

[edit]

See the talk:Samuel Goldwyn Studio page under the heading "The Lot." Steelbeard1 (talk) 20:58, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry I didn't mention it, but I was on holiday and pretty much only doing basic things on Wikipedia when I had some free moments. I did see your comment and I looked at the Wikiquette alert that you posted, but I intended to get more involved once I finished my Wikibreak. Anyway, I'm back now, so if there's anything you need me to do I will see to it. ... discospinster talk 21:25, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I had actually logged a Wikiquette alert against this user in April but the page gets archived so frequently that it disappeared. You can find it here: Wikipedia:Wikiquette alerts/archive44#User:Thomasalazar. In it I mention another user that I suspect of being a sock puppet (User:EVHS (NNYDL), who stopped editing after I brought it up).
The entry underneath it is from User:Diamond Joe Quimby making complaints against me. It is interesting to note that I had never come in contact with him/her prior to the Wikiquette alert being logged, leading me to believe that Diamond Joe Quimby is also a sockpuppet.
Also, another user raised a Wikiquette concern about Diamond Joe Quimby just the day before mine here.
I can copy this info into your case file if you'd like, or you can just use it any way you like. ... discospinster talk 23:11, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have taken the above information plus the evidence you amassed so far in your casefile and put it all in WP:SSP format here. We can sign the report and submit it. I think there is enough for an initial submission, since the report can always be added to afterwards. (Note that I did not mention some of the users that you suspect are sockpuppets, since we don't have evidence of it at the moment. Besides which, other editors who see the report will sometimes find further evidence themselves.) What do you think? ... discospinster talk 00:02, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I guess it's ready, we just need to sign it by putting four tildes under the part that says "Report submission by". I've signed it, and it just needs your signature. ... discospinster talk 15:38, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Dear WikiDon,

I realize that I am new to this whole Wiki thing but I do have the desire to share information. However as gentle as your comments may have seemed perhaps it would have been better to just fix the mistake you saw. True it does not teach me better grammar or typing finesse but your comment only served to dissuade me to use wikipedia. I however am made of tougher stuff than that and will continue to use wikipedia.

Thank you though for you alertness and I apologize for the mistakes that I did make I'll keep them in mind in the future.

You know I realize editing grammar and style on wikipedia must be hard. Everyone probably things you are jerk when you make comments but I do think that the community needs people who watches that the style is maintained. So thank you for your help even if it stung at first. Please keep up the Work.

Thank You

Copyvio section on my talk page.

[edit]

What in the hell are you talking about when you say "Copying and pasting text from other websites? is in direct violation of copyright? I know that one already, so there's no need to reinforce it by posting such a lame and idiotic post to my Talk Page. Also, I don't know if you were aware, but GilligCoaches.NET is MY OWN, yes MY OWN website. Therefore, I reserve 100% FULL RIGHTS to copy ANY LINE OF TEXT from MY OWN WEBSITE as I see fit. Also, that copyright tag, featured exclusively on GilligCoaches.NET and GilligCoaches.NET alone, HAVE NOT been posted by ME on Wikipedia at ANY TIME in the history of my account here. I think you're barking up the wrong tree, and I suggest you delete that entry because you have no grounds for ever posting it. Also, if you had paid closer attention, right below the main history section, there was, in PLAIN AS DAY TEXT, a tagline at the bottom which read:

I've authored a condensed and derivative form of this for the Kenworth article on Wikipedia.

As for the other two posts, which I find unnecessary and totally ridiculous, would you mind explaining yourself? Srosenow 98 (talk) 08:06, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you are in doubt as to who I am, e-mail me at the address listed on my website. That should be a guarantee enough, I think. Also, if need be, I can also provide another Wikipedia editor who has in the past submitted material for GilligCoaches.NET. Srosenow 98 (talk) 08:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also, your ignorance has obviously overlooked this KEY PART of WP:COPYVIO, as well as my own USER PAGE which makes an OBVIOUS and BLATANT REFERENCE to GilligCoaches.NET and who I am.
Some cases will be false alarms. For example, if the contributor was in fact the author of the text, then even if it is published elsewhere under different terms, they have the right to post it here under the GFDL – the text may still be unsuitable for Wikipedia for another reason, but it is not a copyright violation.
I've given enough proof that I wrote the text, therefore, there was NO copyright violation that took place here. Enough said. And what started this?! I can understand a slight concern if it were someone else, but for petessakes, do some goddamn INVESTIGATING before you outright ATTACK me, and my editing methods. Goddamn, man, you even sound like an elitist with how you seem to correct me. Srosenow 98 (talk) 09:03, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Do I need to go to an admin to handle this case? Apparently, your lack of understanding of the situation leaves me no choice but to go that direction. I have given ample proof of who I am (by citing numerous references both here and in the Kenworth Talk Page), yet you still seem to doubt me. Furthermore, you've not provided me any answer to what initiated this ridiculous, rather immature and ill-conceived diatribe, nor why you first went on the attack against ME before posting any concerns on the article's talk page (as per guidelines set in WP:COPYVIO. Srosenow 98 (talk) 09:22, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I followed the rules to creating that section to a "T" before you even started that nonsensical madness. It's also stupefying that you STILL have not provided me any sort of clues as to why you started it in the first place. Srosenow 98 (talk) 09:37, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Still no answer, and yet every single WP guideline you show me, I've followed to a T EVEN BEFORE you started this madness. Srosenow 98 (talk) 09:42, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, letsee here. Right at the bottom of the Pacific History section. In nice - yet still clearly visible under the largest desktop resolutions - fine print, reads a statement, which I actually borrowed from another website whose author ALSO donated portions of his website to WP! :

I've authored a condensed and derivative form of this for the Kenworth article on Wikipedia.
It's fair, to the point, and gets the job done. Worked on the website I borrowed the idea from! Srosenow 98 (talk) 09:56, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Huff, Texas

[edit]

The only Huff I can find is this one Huff, Texas in Archer County. Must be more a spittoon gathering place? ~ WikiDon (talk) 23:03, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So, you are willing to change Limestone County to Archer County? That's fair walkin' distance. But, it does seem to make this: "Huff Community Elementary, and Wichita Falls, Texas"; make a lot more sense. The one I found in Archer County is very close to Wichita Falls. ~ WikiDon (talk) 05:08, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not only willing, but I'm very interested in upgrading it and other articles to whatever is true and correct. I incorrectly listed Limestone County in the initial draft of Evans based upon verbal information, but I changed it to Archer County after reading Evan's birth cirtificate. I think that small tidbits of our history are significant, I think revisionist historians do us all harm, and I think it's best for all of us to tell it like it is (was), along with the good, the bad, and the ugly. Thanks for finding the info on Huff, Texas. I appreciate it. Dr. B. R. Lang (talk) 16:13, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ben Johnson

[edit]

I replied to your edit on the Ben Johnson talk page but will copy my post here. But as the first standard of WP editing policy is civility, I must confess that I feel somewhat uncivilly treated. My impression of your remark on my talk page is one of anger and arrogance, something that does not seem justified by any edit or comment I made. Perhaps I misread your intent, but I try to conduct myself here as generously and kindly as I can, and I felt quite disrespected by your tone. Here are my remarks from the Ben Johnson talk page. I hope you will read them in the spirit in which I wrote them, one of hoping to collaboratively edit the article in such a way that verifiable truth is arrived at. Thank you. QUOTE: Osage vs. Cherokee== Can you provide a citation for the Cherokee heritage? It doesn't match my own information, but neither of us has posted a citation to back up the point. I'm willing to concede if you've got a cite, as I can't begin to remember where mine is without more digging than I've got time for. But as it's a point of disagreement, I hope you'll agree that a real citation is necessary. I'm a Cherokee and have been unable to find his family on the Dawes rolls. Doesn't mean I'm right, but add that to his being born on the Osage rez and it's certainly a disputable point. Monkeyzpop (talk) 02:54, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you were indeed attempting to communicate in nice rapport. Phrases like "What is your problem?" confused me, since people don't usually use that phrase when they're being nice. Anyway, I accept your statement. My problem with the rootsweb cite is that it doesn't say Cherokee, does it? Does the obit? In my conversations with Ben, he never said anything about being Cherokee. I never heard anything but Osage. But that's OR. All I'm saying is that a RELIABLE cite for his heritage would be good, one that actually states what it is, and does so in a non-hearsay manner. The documentary (which I've never seen) may or may not state it with references, or maybe just hearsay. All-Movie Guide is full of errors. All I'm trying to do is arrive at a verifiable truth, if one can be found. Nobody's spitting on your work. Monkeyzpop (talk) 21:10, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Marlon Brando

[edit]

That section of the article does deserve to be removed. There are no resources and no facts, also no proof. So even though I removed it three times, I will continue to remove it even though I might get blocked from editing, if I do get blocked from editing I will inform a higher-up Admin on the situation and explain to him there are no verifiable resources or facts to prove the statement.

Sock Puppet?

[edit]

i'm not a sock puppet what the hell is up with you? dood leave me alone already your annoying, edit and stop disturbing me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.91.175.147 (talk) 05:02, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me, who in the hell are you to tell me i'm not wanted here? you think your the owner of this site...your an editor that no one likes so dont tell me stuff like that because everyone belongs here you freak!

ok sure mister civil get a freaking life, peace..

What a "peace"ful note up above! I've run into more than one of these users (at least Thomasalazar and Diamond), but never more than one at a time; as I've never encountered anything sockpuppetish with them, I'll refrain from commenting on the sock notice. But still: thanks for informing me of it. Nyttend (talk) 13:59, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If I bring you flowers???

[edit]

Will you follow me around? I need somebody to double check my spelling and grammar. I thought that the "it's" might be wrong. I new it was a contraction for "it is", but couldn't remember if it was also possessive of the "review": "...in it's review..."

Candy? ~ WikiDon (talk) 06:26, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hee! "It's" means "it is" or "it has"; "it's" never means "belonging to it". But don't worry: many people make that mistake. If I followed everyone who made that mistake around, I'd be following around 1/2 of all Wikipedians! ;) Best wishes and happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 06:40, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

STOP

[edit]

Please stop messing with articles I edit or create (not including Marlon Brando, I'm talking about the Mannino page and other pages, every page I contribute to you have to edit it). If you continue to do this I will inform an Admin. Please stop! General Mannino (talk) 04:50, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, you can edit whatever article you want, but when you edit just about every article the I contribute to it seems like a personal attack in a way. From now on, I don't what to hear from you, ever again, and if you message me ever again I will report you for a personal attack of harassment. Got it?

You are correct that it isn't proper to blank an article's talk page, but there was no harm from it and he was told why that wasn't appropriate by another editor. Hopefully he can become a good editor, and I'll keep an eye on him for a while. -MBK004 17:26, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WikiDon, STOP stalking me! Just please leave me alone! I know you personally got the Admin MBK004 to stick up for you and be against me, I know I've encountered it before, and I reported both the user and the admin, and it was a success, and it's kinda funny the the Admin I previously reported was another MBK. My gosh, how many MBK's are there? Just please leave me alone, if you leave me alone, I'll leave you alone. General Mannino (talk) 19:47, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it's very possible you knew MBK004 and emailed him without messaging him on Wikipedia. Leave me alone or else. You don't earn the title "Don", you're no Mafia Boss, so go sleep with the fishes. General Mannino (talk) 21:11, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your note

[edit]

Hi again WikiDon. Looks like your are a hot topic all over the place. I never want to be nice to vandals, but, I have learned to be patient and just keep reversing them. I do have one suggestion (that you most certainly don't have to follow) if this one shows up again, rather then posting all of the policy links on their page (which is very generous of you in my opinion) just keep posting warnings and when they have gone over the limit take them to AIV. In my years here at wikiP I have reported more than 100 vandals there and I think that only a handful didn't get blocked. I am always glad to help protect any pages for the Land of Enchantment so let me know if you need any help in the future. MarnetteD | Talk 22:02, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note

[edit]

Just to clear up a couple things:

1) the IP4240207xx account was originally created because of a login issue with the WikiDon account. Jimmy Wales was aware of it at the time. It was never meant as a sockpuppet because it wasn't used to abuse anything. I only kept it to revert vandalism, and protect myself from abuse. The rules of sockpuppetry state that there is no reason you can't have more than one account, that is not sockpuppetry in itself, but only if you use those accounts for abusive purposes. Which in the last two weeks I did cross the line.

2) I did put in four years of good edits, I only degraded over the past two months, accelerating in past two weeks, because of my severe frustration over vandals, certain users that I became frustrated with who would not work with others. I am not working now, and this added to my frustrations. I did have some really good quality contributions. If you look at the bulk of the work, 90%?, you will see a good quality product. But, I let the RMS's (user:[email protected]), user:HarveyCarter's, user:Diamond Joe Quimby's, user:Usman Hashmi's, of the Wikipedia world drag me down to their level. I got so tired of dealing with these assholes that I couldn't wait for the normal chain of command to act and tried to accelerate the process. There are users on here that do like me, and have valued my assistance.

While letting anybody edit sounds like a good idea, the open scheme of Wikipedia is flawed. Pure Communism and Pure Capitalism are both great ideas on paper. But, once you introduce the theory to human nature it becomes flawed. A certain percentage of people will not want to follow any rules, and another certain percentage of people will actually be destructive. There is nothing, I repeat nothing, you can do to alter these basic percentages of human nature. A certain number, say 10%, are without moral compass, they will never have it, and there is nothing you can do to change that. The only way to alter it would be medically, and that in itself becomes The Boys from Brazil evil. If you try to alter human nature in this manner, you superimpose one persons thinking on another. So, that is not an answer, but neither is Lord of Flies, which is closer to what we have here on Wikipedia. You must find a balance in the middle. You must have some controls, but not let the thinking of a few try to change the thinking of the mass.

Letting anonymous IPs edits is not good. Now, Wikipedia makes a big deal that they "let anybody edit." And, I am not saying that you don't do that, but if "anybody" wants to edit, then why can't "anybody" login to do it. And the plain fact is some people have been banned, are they still "anybody"?

Here is something to think about: How much time are good contributors spending on patrolling and reverting vandalism and poor quality edits? What if that time could be spent on POSITIVE edits, making quality improvements to articles, instead of on NEGATIVE edits? You have to look at this from a business administration point-of-view, even though this is a non-profit entity. Although you are not trying to make a profit, you are trying to put out a quality product (or at least you should be). So, if you sincerely want to put out a quality product, you should act like and put the quality controls in place to do so. Wikipedia could really learn something about business school productivity curriculum. The percentage of "productive" edits needs to be at a certain level to achieve the quality product status. If a good quality editor is spending 50% of their time reverting vandalism or cleaning up inferior quality edits, that means they are not going to get enough quality edits done to improve the overall quality of the product. This product.

What if you have a 1000 quality editors, and they spend an average of four hours a day here, two hours just cleaning up trash and two hours actually making constructive edits? Now, lets use 200 days for out metric. 1000 x 2 x 200 = 400,000 quality hours of actual positive contributions. But, it also means 400,000 hours of spinning in place counter-productivity. What if through editing controls you could get that number to 80% instead of 50%? Now multiply that by two years, three years, four years, etc. If this was a for profit entity it would have either been gone or changed the business model by now. Now, I am not saying that it should be a "for profit" concern. The idea of a free-global encyclopedia is one of the brightest things to have come out of the Internet ever. But, at the same time, that doesn't mean you can't attempt to skew the number of quality editors and the percentage of their productivity in your favor.

The present, totally-open, policy of Wikipedia (Wikimedia) is flawed. The negative articles about the vandalism and agency's altering their own articles proves this point, and will continue to do so. Unfortunately, human nature being what it is, you need some "hops". You can't change human nature, and it is a crime to attempt it, so you must have some process controls to achieve quality output.

One, no IP eidts, you must login. It is the fastest, simplest way to start to improve the product. If you can't sign up for an account, then that is not Wikimedia's problem.

Two, when you add something new (lets say over a certain number of kilobytes, you can't save the page unless you provide references for the addition. No <ref></ref>, no ability to save the page, unless you have reached-achieved a certain status of good standing.

While the thought of a pure-open encyclopedia is a great idea, it is like the communism of encyclopedias, great idea-flawed execution. Why didn't what Marx write play out in Russia? Human nature. Human nature causes greed, self-serving, corruption, theft, etc., in some individuals and there is nothing you can do about to change that human nature. But there are things you can do to protect your product from it.

I hope that you understand what happened with my frustrations,

WikiDon

James Garner's prospective 1990 California gubernatorial candidacy

[edit]

"Howdy. I know that it has been a few days, but do you have a reference for this:

'Prior to the entry of ex-San Fracisco Mayor (later U.S. Senator) Dianne Feinstein, there was an effort by party leaders to persuade James Garner to seek the 1990 Democratic nomination for Governor of California.'"

I read that in an article in the San Diego Union (now the San Diego Union-Tribune) when I was a student at San Diego State University, in probably January or February of 1990 (that may seem like a strangely specific recollection after all these years, but I have a very good long-term memory, and I also didn't begin attending SDSU until January of 1990, so I can pin down the approximate time pretty well). Needless to say, I didn't clip out the article and hang on to it lo these 18 years. I've used Google to try and substantiate it, although its recently been brought to my attention that Yahoo works much better for finding ancient stuff like that, so maybe I'll take a quick peek over there and see if I find anything....Hey! I found something. Its probably not from the best source, but its some confirmation, anyway: "Prior to the entry of ex-San Francisco Mayor (later U.S. Senator) Dianne Feinstein, there was an effort by party leaders to persuade James Garner to seek the 1990 Democratic nomination for Governor of California." Quote taken from THIS LINK IS APPARENTLY BLACKLISTED (it was Squidoo.Kom/jamesgarner). Well, hopefully it is out there in some better source.

A tag has been placed on File:WilmaRudolphStamp23.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

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. ww2censor (talk) 03:59, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:WilmaRudolphStamp23.jpg

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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box.

Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

File source problem with File:Num42.PNG

[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Num42.PNG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file 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. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven 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.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The subject was a non-notable combat pilot and commercial airline pilot. See talk page discussion, and discussion at the Teahouse.
