It's probably good enough for B-Class. A higher-level (A or FA) review may go back to the questions of (a) how reputable a source he is and (b) whether there are additional sources; so I'd suggest undertaking a more thorough literature survey on the topic before nominating the article to those. Kirill Lokshin 21:12, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
That clears things up quite a bit. I suppose what I'm "researching" is sort of new. Most of the sites I see using "Tags" like slashdot, are still either in beta, or not using the full potential of tags(as I see it). I guess few people have thought about viral tagging, which would be something like "record every bit of relevent information". In my database class, they always talked about effeceint data storage, not meaningful data storage. I want to see wikipedia, and wiki's in general adopt a form of tagging. I think that would be the key to solving.. a few.. problems in the world. I've pretty much finished the technical part of my "research". It is the kind that is based on observing the world and drawing conclusions. And I could reference lots of other wikipedia articles that my current thoughts are based on. And those articles should be backed up by "experts" or "facts" if they are included in wikipedia correct? If I clean it up in terms of "proof" then do I still need to be "published" or is it sufficient to have the "original" "document" in cyberspace(aka my website). Sorry for all the quotation, its just semantics really get me confused. Thanks for responding on my user talk/discussion page. Wubitog 07:10, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
How do I indent like I see above this post? Is there a newbie guide for wikipedia somewhere? At any rate, I actually agree that the encyclopedia aspect of wikipedia should be no-point-of-view, listing facts even if they are facts about theory. I am no longer really pursuing adding viral tagging to wikipedia myself. If it is important enough, someone will add it for me. Hopefully a good wikipedian rather than an excited newbie like myself. I do think there should be a section attached to wikipedia for research however. That is sort of what happens on discussion pages it would seem, but it would be nice to create a new term for a new idea so you had a single place to put that kind of thing. I'll look more into this village pump thing once I've learned how to use wikipedia (ie formatting of text and functions available). Wubitog 06:22, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
I read over a bunch of stuff and started getting into the help section. I put up an adoptme um? function? on my user page. (I think). Now I just need to figure out how to accept someone. I would prefer you because you know where I'm coming from more than any one else here. You have also been very helpful. Wubitog 09:34, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
Its going ok. I've been a little busy with other things, but I did make my proposal at the village pump. No responses yet. Maybe I wasn't clear enough? Or maybe I didn't give good reasons for why I think it is important? I was just going to wait a while longer to see if anyone wanted to comment on the idea. Plus I'm still working the idea of a complete tagging system out in my head. Amazon.com is the best example I've seen, but even they don't have much of a searching system, and nothing denotes whether a tag is meant to be a positive or negative reflection on the item in question. Right now I'm getting a trashy laptop setup for use in a kindergarten. Hunting down free kids software etc. Maybe I bit off more than I could chew with all the things I am involved with at the moment, but I don't plan to give up on wikipedia. At the very least I would like to use wiki concepts in some software I want to create. If I can contribute to wikipedia all the better. The only area I have recent experience in is Everquest 2's Station Exchange service. Maybe I could work on creating some npov content for that topic. Mention duping and cyber crime perhaps.

You mentioned in your edit "if the band has an article, why shouldn't the singer"? Both of those were created by the same author, and neither of them have sources or even an assertion of notability attached to them. It could be that neither of them have a case. Because articles are not static on Wikipedia, the simple fact of having an article can't be used to establish notability. ColourBurst 22:50, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

The reason I had moved the books down is that normally published works go in the External links and references section. Chris 19:24, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
You recently made some edits to the Battle of Dien Bien Phu article, citing 'The Last Valley'. I'd appreciate it if your citations could include a page number, as all the other citations do. Also, you cited it as 'the last valley', which is generally not how to properly capitalize a title. Raul654 18:29, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
I know you said the comment cited in #18 is made throughout the book, but I'd still appreciate at least one page number. Raul654 04:38, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
The Military history WikiProject coordinator election has begun. We will be selecting seven coordinators to serve for the next six months from a pool of sixteen candidates. Please vote here by February 25!

Can't wait to see your article in GA. Once it's done, we'll go all the way. Oh, check this out Wall of Honor, I hope you like it. Tony the Marine 03:55, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
1. The last paragraphs of the Rise of FRELIMO may need some ciatations.
2. In the Conflict, "Insurgency from 1964 to 1969" section, add a citation for the following:
"With the initial FRELIMO attacks in Chai Chai, the fighting spread to Niassa and Tete at the centre of the country by August 21, according to a report from the Portuguese army."
3. In the Portuguese development program section, the last paragraph "The dam also deprived farmers of the much needed annual floods, which would otherwise re-fertilise the plantations" may need a citation.
4. Same for Carnation Revolution, citation for the last paragraph.
I know that in some cases you may have repeat a citation, but that doesn't matter. Tony the Marine 23:22, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
(P.S. Great work)
I don't think there's much you could do in terms of conflict resolution or mediation in this case, aside from encouraging cool-headedness, which you're already doing. I can't think of anything that needs to be conveyed to Patchbook that hasn't already. He's made it clear that it's personal for him, and that he won't respond to you as an objective or disinterested party. If things deteriorate, it'll all be documented if we need make a compelling case for outside intervention. We all just have to be diligent in minimizing disruptions as they come up. Bobanny 01:04, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
It would be good with page numbers for the notes on the Charles Piroth article. Another thing, usually one only gives the complete name of the book in the first note and after that only the surname of the author and the page number. Carl Logan 19:41, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
Hello, I'm sure you will notice a change I made in an article you recently create. Don't think it was vandalism or something else; please just see WP:LIVING, WP:SOAPBOX and WP:Reliable sources. Not everyone might appreciate fairly inoffensive information. Cheers ! Tazmaniacs
Just wanted to let you know if you've not already seen that I've reviewed the article for GA and placed it on hold pending some smallish changes to the structure - let me know if I can be of any help. The Land 22:54, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
"GA", O.K. You don't have to thank me. I did nothing, it's all yours. I feel honored to be among your friends here. After you do the other references let me know and we'll go for FA. If you want, check my User page and see how I posted my GA's, you may want to do something similar. Tony the Marine 02:15, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the cookie. Very tasty indeed (smile). On Friday, we'll go for the upper level, FA. Then we'll keep our fingers crossed and see what happens. Tony the Marine 22:16, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

"I read the article Mozambican War of Independence,which was written by SGGH. I believe that it has the makings of an FA. I will nominate it for such on Friday, but before I do that, I want to consult with some of my good friends here who already have a featured article under there belts. That's why I would like you to look it over before I place it in nomination and if you have any advice to give User:SGGH, be my guest." Your friend Tony the Marine 01:15, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
So, don't worry if you start receiving advice. Tony the Marine 01:15, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes, that would sound much better. The important thing is to also cite the source. Tony the Marine 20:19, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

A merge is a good idea on these articles since they are obviously about the same thing. You did some good work on the article and we should definitely retain those parts.
Usually with ships, we use the name of the ship that it had the longest, or the most prominently and then redirect other names to that main article. Harriet Lane appears to have been "USS" for two years and "CSS" for two months. See the conventions for this. I won't be able to do the work for the merge, as I'm being pulled into off 'pedia things right now. However, I trust you to do what needs to be done, if you'd like to go ahead and do the merge. Thanks. Jinian 12:14, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Mozambican War of Independence
Hi there, Tony! I'm sorry it has taken me a couple of days to get back to you and return the nice message you left on my talk page. Life has been absolutely chaotic for me this week, with so much happening that I don't know whether I'm on my head or my heels, and have had hardly any time to get on wikipedia at all! But at last I'm able to squeeze in a few minutes for my favourite hobby. Yes, I think the Mozambican War of Independence article is an excellent candidate for FA status and would strongly encourage you to go ahead with the nomination. It's one of the best articles I've seen.
I hope you and your family are well. God bless you! David Cannon 22:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
So, get ready! Tony the Marine 23:23, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
I have nominated the Mozambican War of Independence article for FA status. Place this page Featured article candidates/Mozambican War of Independence in your watchlist and respond to comments. Good luck. Tony the Marine 03:45, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the award! :-) Kirill Lokshin 18:10, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

For exemplary work on the magnificent Mozambican War of Independence article. Zleitzen (talk) 16:51, 4 March 2007 (UTC) |
I took a look at the articles, nice. I added a "Award and decorations" section to the articles of Generals English and Karch. I invented the idea of posting the ribbons in an "Award and decorations" section to military articles when I wrote the 2/9 article and since then it has caught on like fire. Tell me if you like it. Tony the Marine 01:50, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I was pleasently suprised and happy to see you comment welcoming me to the law enforcement team. Thankyou also for your follow up on the 'vandelism' soopahoops77 commited. Kind, tenderly regards. Zesty Prospect 17:19, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
So you and Zesty Prospect are on the same project team, so you have look out for each other and back each other up. I bet you say: "We need bac up." Just like those dumb American loser cops. Yours Annoyingly Soopa hoops77 17:31, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I am so sorry in involving you once more in this, but Soopa is being out of order. He is claiming we are having a private joke. Please, i would be grateful if you talked to him. Kind regards, Zesty Prospect 17:40, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
That's alright. I can understand. You made a judgement and you didn't know it was a joke, and ignore Zesty Project he's taking the joke a bit too far. -- Soopa hoops77 18:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)--
Thank you for welcoming me to Wikipedia! I hope I can contribute some good information, especially to the Law Enforcement Wikiproject. I am trying to get used to all the tools here, as well as the appropriate formatting and such. I think I can help flesh out some of the forensics articles, I just have to look for some resources to cite rather than personal experience!
Thanks again, and I am definitely open to any advice or criticism you may have! Ocarina Cave Girl 04:23, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, I've been looking into the matter and I wanted to see how you would handle it. So, far so good. Do this, since those images are from a forgein militray, edit the image page and post your rationale. Something like this: "I believe that these images are of public domain because they are of a military nature. The image is soley used with the purpose of depicting the person or action mentioned in said article."
That should cover it for now until someone deems them to be within a copyright violation. You have to try to keep others from joining the first oppose's bandwagon, by providing some rationale. Tony the Marine 20:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Hey Sandy, thanks for your comments on the FAC page, I have taken them to heart and worked on the article, and I would like to invite you to take another look and update your views so I can see if I am moving along the right lines? Ta! SGGH 10:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Starting through it:
Notes and refs in better shape now. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 20:38, 10 March 2007 (UTC) Hard to understand where we're getting crossed up, so I'll try to start at the beginning. Different countries use different date conventions; on Wikiipedia, full dates are wikilinked so that date preferences will be shown according to each editor's settings. Some see Month Day, Year, while other see Day Month Year. We wikilink full dates so that preferences work. We don't link Month year, or solo years. Your dates are still not linked correctly; for example, in notes and references, you've wikilinked month day, but not year. See WP:DATE SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 21:46, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
No, I can't support considering the considerable list posted to the talk page by Jmabel. In fact, I would be more likely to consider another oppose, except that a third oppose would be foolish :-) I hope someone gets on that list fast; then, I'll be traveling and won't be able to weigh in. Regards, SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 19:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks very much your barnstar. Keep up the good work. We're nearly there with the article!-- Zleitzen (talk) 13:26, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
After, you take care of the situations planted and saying so, as you have been doing all along, go to the Users "talk page" and let them know that you have done as requested and ask them if they would now consider giving you a "support" vote on the FA. I've noticed that you have taken care of the concerns posted, but that some of these users who suggested the changes have not voted. You're doing good. Tony the Marine 18:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh yeah, it feels good doesn't it? Here's a user box for you. Now that you know all of what goes on with the FA, go ahead and work on the
Russian-Circassian War article. I have bigger plans for you so, send me an e-mail. I'll be a little busy today, but I'll get back to you.

"I read the article Mozambican War of Independence,which was written by SGGH. I believe that it has the makings of an FA. I will nominate it for such on Friday, but before I do that, I want to consult with some of my good friends here who already have a featured article under there belts. That's why I would like you to look it over before I place it in nomination and if you have any advice to give User:SGGH, be my guest." Your friend Tony the Marine 01:15, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
So, don't worry if you start receiving advice. Tony the Marine 01:15, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes, that would sound much better. The important thing is to also cite the source. Tony the Marine 20:19, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

i was looking on the web for nekoconeko & got a bootleg wikipedia i guess! Here take a look http://neko.bushidohacks.com -- Lolicon3043910 17:41, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
A merge is a good idea on these articles since they are obviously about the same thing. You did some good work on the article and we should definitely retain those parts.
Usually with ships, we use the name of the ship that it had the longest, or the most prominently and then redirect other names to that main article. Harriet Lane appears to have been "USS" for two years and "CSS" for two months. See the conventions for this. I won't be able to do the work for the merge, as I'm being pulled into off 'pedia things right now. However, I trust you to do what needs to be done, if you'd like to go ahead and do the merge. Thanks. Jinian 12:14, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I received this message and I'm forwarding it to you:
Mozambican War of Independence
Hi there, Tony! I'm sorry it has taken me a couple of days to get back to you and return the nice message you left on my talk page. Life has been absolutely chaotic for me this week, with so much happening that I don't know whether I'm on my head or my heels, and have had hardly any time to get on wikipedia at all! But at last I'm able to squeeze in a few minutes for my favourite hobby. Yes, I think the Mozambican War of Independence article is an excellent candidate for FA status and would strongly encourage you to go ahead with the nomination. It's one of the best articles I've seen.
I hope you and your family are well. God bless you! David Cannon 22:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
So, get ready! Tony the Marine 23:23, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
I have nominated the Mozambican War of Independence article for FA status. Place this page Featured article candidates/Mozambican War of Independence in your watchlist and respond to comments. Good luck. Tony the Marine 03:45, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the award! :-) Kirill Lokshin 18:10, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

For exemplary work on the magnificent Mozambican War of Independence article. Zleitzen (talk) 16:51, 4 March 2007 (UTC) |
I took a look at the articles, nice. I added a "Award and decorations" section to the articles of Generals English and Karch. I invented the idea of posting the ribbons in an "Award and decorations" section to military articles when I wrote the 2/9 article and since then it has caught on like fire. Tell me if you like it. Tony the Marine 01:50, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I was pleasently suprised and happy to see you comment welcoming me to the law enforcement team. Thankyou also for your follow up on the 'vandelism' soopahoops77 commited. Kind, tenderly regards. Zesty Prospect 17:19, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
So you and Zesty Prospect are on the same project team, so you have look out for each other and back each other up. I bet you say: "We need bac up." Just like those dumb American loser cops. Yours Annoyingly Soopa hoops77 17:31, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I am so sorry in involving you once more in this, but Soopa is being out of order. He is claiming we are having a private joke. Please, i would be grateful if you talked to him. Kind regards, Zesty Prospect 17:40, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
That's alright. I can understand. You made a judgement and you didn't know it was a joke, and ignore Zesty Project he's taking the joke a bit too far. -- Soopa hoops77 18:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)--
Thank you for welcoming me to Wikipedia! I hope I can contribute some good information, especially to the Law Enforcement Wikiproject. I am trying to get used to all the tools here, as well as the appropriate formatting and such. I think I can help flesh out some of the forensics articles, I just have to look for some resources to cite rather than personal experience!
Thanks again, and I am definitely open to any advice or criticism you may have! Ocarina Cave Girl 04:23, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, I've been looking into the matter and I wanted to see how you would handle it. So, far so good. Do this, since those images are from a forgein militray, edit the image page and post your rationale. Something like this: "I believe that these images are of public domain because they are of a military nature. The image is soley used with the purpose of depicting the person or action mentioned in said article."
That should cover it for now until someone deems them to be within a copyright violation. You have to try to keep others from joining the first oppose's bandwagon, by providing some rationale. Tony the Marine 20:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Hey Sandy, thanks for your comments on the FAC page, I have taken them to heart and worked on the article, and I would like to invite you to take another look and update your views so I can see if I am moving along the right lines? Ta! SGGH 10:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Starting through it:
Notes and refs in better shape now. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 20:38, 10 March 2007 (UTC) Hard to understand where we're getting crossed up, so I'll try to start at the beginning. Different countries use different date conventions; on Wikiipedia, full dates are wikilinked so that date preferences will be shown according to each editor's settings. Some see Month Day, Year, while other see Day Month Year. We wikilink full dates so that preferences work. We don't link Month year, or solo years. Your dates are still not linked correctly; for example, in notes and references, you've wikilinked month day, but not year. See WP:DATE SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 21:46, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
No, I can't support considering the considerable list posted to the talk page by Jmabel. In fact, I would be more likely to consider another oppose, except that a third oppose would be foolish :-) I hope someone gets on that list fast; then, I'll be traveling and won't be able to weigh in. Regards, SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 19:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks very much your barnstar. Keep up the good work. We're nearly there with the article!-- Zleitzen (talk) 13:26, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
After, you take care of the situations planted and saying so, as you have been doing all along, go to the Users "talk page" and let them know that you have done as requested and ask them if they would now consider giving you a "support" vote on the FA. I've noticed that you have taken care of the concerns posted, but that some of these users who suggested the changes have not voted. You're doing good. Tony the Marine 18:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh yeah, it feels good doesn't it? Here's a user box for you. Now that you know all of what goes on with the FA, go ahead and work on the
Russian-Circassian War article. I have bigger plans for you so, send me an e-mail. I'll be a little busy today, but I'll get back to you.
