I've seen lots of editors who dislike various lyric sites. Sometimes it is WP:RS and sometimes it is WP:copyright and sometimes it is WP:linkspam objections. All of those exist. Notwithstanding this being the wikipedia equivalent of How many angels can dance on the head of a pin, trying to find a source of any kind that details the wording of a lyric is always problematical. And it doesn't change the factual accuracy at all. So I understand your concerns, but note that we actually do have a source, albeit perhaps not the best. If you eliminate those kinds of references, then you are left with references to the liner notes (which probably aren't on line) or to the record itself. And then someone says that it is WP:OR, and that it needs a WP:RS. You get the idea. I actually thought I've made a number of substantial contributions to this article, and that the whole cinnamon liquor phenomena should be developed. In passing, the group we are talking about also referenced Goldschlagger in their lyrics, so it is part of the culture. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 17:03, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
I feel your pain and share your concern. Of course, if someone has a mixology book they can find more or less reliable sources for silly-named but real drinks like Sex on the beach. And that articles states: "Sex on Fire" is Sex on the Beach with Fireball Cinnamon Whisky in place of the vodka. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 17:58, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Barrelproof, when are we going to be allowed to clean up that mess of the Homopus article names? You've gone very quiet since it was pointed out that even the IUCN is beginning to update its records and phase out the old system you have in your terrarium book. I understand how strongly you don't want to move on from the old names, but they're indisputably incorrect, misleading and (for that reason) now outdated. I don't need to go into all the many reasons why they're no longer accepted, it's explained on the talk page of Homopus boulengeri and Homopus (genus).

In this comment at Talk:John Gielgud, roles and awards, you used the {{ tq}} template to mark examples of acceptable titles:
List of roles and awards of John GielgudorList of roles and awards for John Gielgud
I think you meant to use {{ xt}} which is meant for good examples (as opposed to {{ !xt}} for bad examples):
List of roles and awards of John Gielgud or List of roles and awards for John Gielgud
Those templates look very similar and are sometimes used interchangeably. I am hoping to overcome this by adopting a different format for the tq template to distinguish it from xt better. Please see Template talk:Tq#RfC: Change the TQ template font colour. If you would like to comment there, it would be appreciated.

I reverted your edit because it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts, and also because I do not believe that it is true that both the wild and occelated turkey species are described with those terms, rather than just the domesticated turkey. I also don't believe that the young of any turkeys are called "babies" rather than chicks. You said that you can verify all these supposed facts in 30 seconds, so please add a reference.

Hi BarrelProof,
Thanks for your addition to Aspergillus oryzae. I was wondering, are we certain that black awamori really is A. oryzae? I ask because I know there's a species called A. awamori, which is a domesticated derivative of A. niger and so presumably has black spores, and I've never seen a black-spored strain of A. orzyae. I realise this page does imply black awamori is A. orzyae, but do you know of any other sources that could corroborate? I can imagine how there could be confusion, as "Koji mold" is often used as a synonym for A. orzyae, even though I'm pretty sure it's not the only species used in making koji. Cheers, Adrian J. Hunter( talk• contribs) 03:47, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
...and see also my earlier comment to this editor at his Talk page. He asked that I edit the article for the chemistry, but I have declined, for he does not seem committed to either well-sourced science writing, or respect for article structures.

Thank you, WhisperToMe ( talk) 10:12, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
I think this can provide an explanation of the grouping (I'm still looking for new info!):
In my experience sometimes taking the time to investigate a new edit has allowed me to find some more interesting things to write about. When someone added this information I could have removed it due to a lack of citations, but instead I decided into investigate it. It turned out to be true and I started a new article: Our Mother of Mercy Catholic Church WhisperToMe ( talk) 23:37, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

I wasn't aware of the contentiousness of that article's title—thanks for pointing that out. I won't change the capitalization again. I do want to point out, though, that the capitalization of the page title does not currently match the capitalization used in the text of the page and in the infobox, which seems like an odd state of affairs to me. It might be worth editing the article to make the capitalization consistent. Just a thought. Cheers! — Mr. Granger ( talk · contribs) 04:06, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

Please note that silicium and calibers are typical "watch industry" words, no intention to be fancy. Especially on silicium/silicon, there have been plenty debates within industry. Good to use silicon and movements.
With regards the accents, probably best is to remove as language=English.

You removed the term "Sour Mash" from Jack Daniel's saying it is unnecessary because all Tennessee Whiskeys are sour mashes. Fact of the matter is, it IS a sour mash. The Sour mash article is interesting and relevant, and now, NOTHING about Jack Daniels links to that article. And how is the reader supposed to know all Tennessee Whiskeys are sour mashes? Even the Tennessee Whiskey article does not link to the sour mash article! I do not follow the logic of removing sour mash completely from the article, given that it is indeed a sour mash. Just because all Tennessee bourbons are sour mashes does not mean we should not mention the sour mash process somewhere in the article. Marteau ( talk) 14:25, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Well, we lost on the complaint about the IP but in the end salvaged a draw, which under the circumstances is sufficient for me.

You undid my adding of a listing to the page move requests for technical reasons section for the following reason: "(Undid revision 621433788 by WikiWinters (talk) Removing, since the user edited the article Talk page to say it is contested." Why is this wrong? I thought it would simply serve as a notice for those who were frequent editors to the page. Also, I was only following the template. I did not intend to say it was contested. That was just part of the default template. I'm not sure I understand the reasoning behind this. WikiWinters ( talk) 05:09, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

Hi,
This is in regards to the changes that you have making in the content that we have been editing on Siddharth Mallya's page. Can you please let us know what is going wrong that you are re-editing all our changes. We also wanted to change his Wiki page name to Sid Mallya, as he is known by this name and it is confusing his fans and other people in the industry as it appears as Siddharth Mallya on his Wiki page. He has changed his name long back. Sharing reference links with you for this. Kindly advise me on how can i change his name to Sid Mallya again as it is not even allowing us to move his existing page to Sid Mallya. Please help us out with this.

I think this can provide an explanation of the grouping (I'm still looking for new info!):
In my experience sometimes taking the time to investigate a new edit has allowed me to find some more interesting things to write about. When someone added this information I could have removed it due to a lack of citations, but instead I decided into investigate it. It turned out to be true and I started a new article: Our Mother of Mercy Catholic Church WhisperToMe ( talk) 23:37, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
Hi,
We have been trying to change the name of the article to Sid Mallya as it his actual name. Can you please help us out with the same?

I wasn't aware of the contentiousness of that article's title—thanks for pointing that out. I won't change the capitalization again. I do want to point out, though, that the capitalization of the page title does not currently match the capitalization used in the text of the page and in the infobox, which seems like an odd state of affairs to me. It might be worth editing the article to make the capitalization consistent. Just a thought. Cheers! — Mr. Granger ( talk · contribs) 04:06, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
Saw you removed line. Propose following more neutral:
In 2014, Frederique Constant celebrated ten years of manufacturing the Heart Beat.

Please note that silicium and calibers are typical "watch industry" words, no intention to be fancy. Especially on silicium/silicon, there have been plenty debates within industry. Good to use silicon and movements.
With regards the accents, probably best is to remove as language=English.

You deserve some Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve, as you exemplified patience and civility in the face of provocation, while tweaking the subject and the references. Well done! Of course, the aforesaid (at least in its 23 year iteration) is currently out of stock in most bars and liquor stores, so you will have to settle for something else. You can't always get what you want. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 01:50, 30 July 2014 (UTC) |

You removed the term "Sour Mash" from Jack Daniel's saying it is unnecessary because all Tennessee Whiskeys are sour mashes. Fact of the matter is, it IS a sour mash. The Sour mash article is interesting and relevant, and now, NOTHING about Jack Daniels links to that article. And how is the reader supposed to know all Tennessee Whiskeys are sour mashes? Even the Tennessee Whiskey article does not link to the sour mash article! I do not follow the logic of removing sour mash completely from the article, given that it is indeed a sour mash. Just because all Tennessee bourbons are sour mashes does not mean we should not mention the sour mash process somewhere in the article. Marteau ( talk) 14:25, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Well, we lost on the complaint about the IP but in the end salvaged a draw, which under the circumstances is sufficient for me. It would be nice to know though where discussions like this have taken place, because there is certainly enough good faith disagreement among intelligent and experienced editors for there either to be a definitive policy, or a definitive statement that there is no policy!

You undid my adding of a listing to the page move requests for technical reasons section for the following reason: "(Undid revision 621433788 by WikiWinters (talk) Removing, since the user edited the article Talk page to say it is contested." Why is this wrong? I thought it would simply serve as a notice for those who were frequent editors to the page. Also, I was only following the template. I did not intend to say it was contested. That was just part of the default template. I'm not sure I understand the reasoning behind this. WikiWinters ( talk) 05:09, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

Page heading from the score for A Boy Was Born, published by Oxford University Press. Text includes "To my Father – A Boy was Born – Benjamin Britten – Op. 3"., - you reverted it. The piece was published " A Boy was Born", as the image shows and the caption has to follow, if it is supposed to make sense. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 13:03, 14 September 2014 (UTC) ps: What we have now looks to me as if under the image of a yellow flower you read a caption about a red flower. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 13:40, 14 September 2014 (UTC)
Barrel, in response to your post on my talk page, I've re-opened this discussion. I think that your creation of a dab page changes the discussion, so it is worthwhile inviting the discussants to reconsider, and another administrator to close the debate.

Hi,
This is in regards to the changes that you have making in the content that we have been editing on Siddharth Mallya's page. Can you please let us know what is going wrong that you are re-editing all our changes. We also wanted to change his Wiki page name to Sid Mallya, as he is known by this name and it is confusing his fans and other people in the industry as it appears as Siddharth Mallya on his Wiki page. He has changed his name long back. Sharing reference links with you for this. Kindly advise me on how can i change his name to Sid Mallya again as it is not even allowing us to move his existing page to Sid Mallya. Please help us out with this.

Since you have participated in at least one Requested Move or Move Review discussion, either as participant or closer, regarding the title of the article currently at Sarah Jane Brown, you are being notified that there is another discussion about that going on now, at Talk:Sarah Jane Brown#Requested move #10.

You recently reverted an edit. Then gave what you thought was a "rationale" for its removal, but actually the rationale you use really just exposes your lack of familiarity with the subject, making you look pretty darn ignorant. This dispute has been taken to the talk page Firestorm, were your prejudiced assumption is shown to be wholly unsupported. 92.251.172.194 ( talk) 12:58, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
