This is something in the past now: I have always entered edit summaries as a routine and now get reminded of blanks. For a minor edit I might not put anything very meaningful in: I have seen ones like "removed duplicate full stop" which is more than required. Occasionally I will revert an edit which I am sure is vandalism but perhaps the explanation shd be the first thing in the edit summary rather than added at the end as it might not all be displayed. For a good faith misguided amendment I would delete the standard message and enter something relevant. Another thing that I found puzzling was an fine article on Robert Hawker which had been originally a section in another called Charles Church but references for both these articles were virtually non-existent yet the content had been scrutinised by many different editors.-- Felix Folio Secundus ( talk) 13:26, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Chzz, someone has added unnecessary requests for citations to the Charles Dennis article. Please go to the Charles Dennis article and you will see what I mean.
Will you tell me how I can find out who added those requests for citations? I was not able to find out who put them in. They need to be removed anyway, and do I need someone's "permission" to remove them?
I looked at the following in wikipedia:
From Wikipedia Burden of Evidence page:
Any material lacking a reliable source may be removed, but how quickly this should happen depends on the material in question and the overall state of the article. Editors might object if you remove material without giving them enough time to provide references, especially in an underdeveloped article. It has always been good practice to make reasonable efforts to find sources oneself that support such material, and cite them.
From George Lucas Article page:
In 1969, Lucas married film editor Marcia Lou Griffin, who went on to win an Academy Award for her editing work on the original (Episode IV) Star Wars film.
All three of his children have appeared in the three Star Wars prequels, as has Lucas himself.
So the above and says that editors must be given time to provide references. It also shows that "everything" does not need to be, nor can it be, referenced.
So, Chzz, I would appreciate your assistance with this matter. What do you think? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cerberusrunning ( talk • contribs) 03:52, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Nice rescue tagging.

Hi Chzz,
could you help me with editing the reference in the following page: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/School_Science/Bell_jar_model_lung#cite_note-0 The symbol for the reference apears, however the reference is nowhere to be seen.
Also would it not be better to move this article back to Wikipedia since it essentially an article about simple lung models and not a book or part of a book.
If I forgot to enter an "Edit Summary", can I still enter one after the fact?
If I forgot to login before editing a page, can I change the edit accordingly to show me as an editor?

I had found this mentioned on your page and curiosity got the best of me. I found the scope of this man's claimed careerr to be most impressive... way too impressive... nobody could have done all that was claimed for this guy and be for real. When looking at the version you yourself looked at, I can well understand your hitting up the article's assertions up for sources. So I had a look for sources, gave its structure a major re-assembly and have begun sourcing the article.

Thanks. I created a list of references, which appear as secondary sources. They all start with the artistes name. I added them to References, hoping somebody would link them with the main text. Instead, they keep being moved into External Links. Their relevance may not be appreciated until they are properly linked. I do not know how to link the links to the text. Could you do the first TWO, so I can see the way the HTML coding works. What buttons need to be used to do referencing besides the ref/ref button. How do they stay automatically numbered (in the right sequence)? Also, I am not sure whether simple, named or cited references can all be used. What happens if a reference needs to be cited but only a named/simple one is available. Thanks. ( Zanze123 ( talk) 18:03, 10 August 2009 (UTC))

HELP! I need the assistance of an august editor of your calibur. There is an article named Pentecostalism which left a lot to be desired as far as style and capitalzation. It is about a specific religious sect, and as such will provoke strong feelings. Whoever wrote the article capitalized any and all religious references. Can you please read comments on the page Talk:Pentecostalism? All the technical corrections I had made, including gross errors, were reverted to protect a point of view, I suspect. I conceded that Pentecostal references could be capitalized, but very many others were miles away from being proper names. I did earn a ThD degree, so religious terminology is not removed from my field of expertise. Thanks you so much. Respectfully yours, R/T-รัก-ไทย ( talk) 01:32, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
While I understand and agree with your tagging much of the Charles Dennis article for sources, and indeed the sheer number of the tags you placed is what inspired me to work on it, your tagging and then re-tagging the filmography section as unsourced got me worried, as it had never previously been policy to do so in the BLP of an actor. I asked the question at the relevent project in case I was doing something incorrect. Please visit Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Actors_and_Filmmakers#Sourcing_a_filmology if you'd like to offer your views. Thank you, MichaelQSchmidt ( talk) 05:08, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
Hi, thank you for the message you posted. I made my own remarks within the section and I support the semi-protection along with bringing back the other artists booted off. I know you are neutral but I was wondering if we can take this to any higher authority or to an administrator of some sort. The purpose of Wikipedia as I understand it is to bring together everyone's contributions or at least gather everyone's opinions for a 'democratic' solution. The self-proclaimed owner of that page is shutting out all other contributions and crafting the page to suit himself. Please let me know if there is anything else that can be done.

Hi thanks for being so helpful man. A lot of fans are still emotional with him passing and all and it really looks bad on wikipedia that after he dies he's now held to some insane standard nobody else on that list is held to. There have been countless sources listed for his 750 Million total. What more could anyone want? Also in effort of fairness I think MJ's total should be reverted back to the original amount that it has been for the past two years which is 750+ Million. Atleast until this is sorted out. On the "Protected Wikipedia page description" it states during times like these with heated debates it's usually best to revert everything back to the way it was originally in the effort of fairness.

Hi Chzz,
A number of suggestions have been made so far, Phyrrus suggested going back to the original figure of 750m whilst putting a disclaimer in there somewhere of the dispute for the figure, which doesn't sound like too bad a idea to me. At the same time I feel more effort should be made by contributors to research the recent past record sales reports prior to 2006, I have added relevant material in the rationale, but for the most part the discussion seems to be going down the page. Your input (not necessarily towards the topic) in regards to moderation and the direction this discussion should take to end this as quickly and efficiently as possible would be greatly appreciated. JFonseka ( talk) 00:48, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
No there should not be a footnote added because that is holding one artist out of the entire list to a different standard. If you MUST you can include a seperate colomn. One with the widely reported figures for these artists. Another with the one from databases. So that means you can still included the official numbers for The Beatles, Elvis, etc... But then include a second colomn with independently verified numbers. Bare in mind a colomn with only verified numbers would actually increase Jackson's position on the list as only second to the Beatles. So if that's what you want so be it. Atleast it would be a listwide change instead of singling Michael Jackson out unfairly.-- Mrparissm ( talk) 14:17, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

actually, thanks for stopping the discussion. i was offering suggestions to harout12 to peacefully continue with his work either doing so elsewhere on the net on his own page and maybe even offering a deal with a rock magazine, starting a new wiki page with his name on the title, or detailing all explanations of methodologies for all artists on the page itself. I don't know how many people on the discussion page are actually giving him suggestions - so I thought he would like the ideas. In response, he has ignored even considering the options and has been condescending and mocking me in all replies. I have in response defended myself, while trying to push for these options as possibilities. But it has erupted into both of us criticizing each other at the same time, so it is actually good that it has stopped. But I was wondering, can we offer him suggestions in a way that he may consider them? Vpuliva ( talk) 06:00, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply. What do you think of this - I wait a few days like you said, and add a new discussion section to the nature of: suggestions for those against recording label/company numbers, and then list as I did in my previous message. I feel it would be fair so that harout12 can continue with his work privately and without any interference and the public can continue work without the controversy or lack of control - unless you have a suggestion you feel would be more effective or fair.

For your information, I have NOT been attacking other editors. The two editors in question have been attacking me the past two days. Caden did not tell you the truth when he filed this administrative complain against me. He was attacking me, and so was the other editor by leaving ridiculous comments on my talk page. All I did was simply remove those comments from my talk page, an act that IS legal on Wikipedia. I did NOT go to the users respective talk pages and attacked them, as Caden claimed. These the other user is at fault for prolonging the so-called “fight” by was dealt with civility last week.
Caden is at fault for...
A. getting involved in something that was none of his business,
B. trying to ruthlessly atagonize a situation because that’s this nature, causing trouble with editors he had bad dealings with in the past. Trouble that he himself instigated on every single one.
C. filing a false complain on me for something I did not do, attacking another editor.
I already filed an incident report against the two of them for their nonsense towards me. If it wasn’t for the other users prolonging this issue, you would not be hearing from me (or Caden for that matter) to begin with. KeltieMartinFan ( talk) 14:11, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
HI Nicknack, Thanks for your speedy and helpful reply.
Of the sources I have quoted, 2 are the relevant websites which I guess would count as 'reliable self published sources', as these record the physical reality of the artists output.
Roger is dead and we only really have as sources the institutions where he studied and taught.
Other possible sources would be: the Royal College for the qualifications and awards,
The purpose of the article is to record the achievements of one of Britains most successful textile designers who received no recognition during his lifetime.We know it will not be straightforward, but feel it is important to get it right. Can you give me any advice?
Thankyou!

Hi my fellow friend! You did such a beautiful job on the Aichi Kinro Kaikan article I was hoping you'd create one more article for me. The Roundhouse in Dagenham would be my number one choice, but I also understand if you don't have the time. However, I do promise I'll make the next article if you make this one. I think I need to see one more article created from scratch. LONG LIVE WIKIMANIACS!! |
Chzz,
Graeme says we're ready to go live...what do you think? I'm still tracking down the references for those two red-lined sentences, and should have them shortly. After I do, can the article go live? I did a lot of revising, based on your earlier comments.
This is what Graeme wrote to me:
Hello Burkeguy, User:Burkeguy/Kathryn Troutman look ready for article space. Congratulations on getting the picture in. The process is extra difficult when you have to send the email. you should be able to use that move tab to shift it to Kathryn Troutman . I was a bit worried on the notability side, but there do seem to be plenty of references in independent publications, so it should be safe from deletion.

This is something in the past now: I have always entered edit summaries as a routine and now get reminded of blanks. For a minor edit I might not put anything very meaningful in: I have seen ones like "removed duplicate full stop" which is more than required. Occasionally I will revert an edit which I am sure is vandalism but perhaps the explanation shd be the first thing in the edit summary rather than added at the end as it might not all be displayed. For a good faith misguided amendment I would delete the standard message and enter something relevant. Another thing that I found puzzling was an fine article on Robert Hawker which had been originally a section in another called Charles Church but references for both these articles were virtually non-existent yet the content had been scrutinised by many different editors.-- Felix Folio Secundus ( talk) 13:26, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Chzz, someone has added unnecessary requests for citations to the Charles Dennis article. Please go to the Charles Dennis article and you will see what I mean.
Will you tell me how I can find out who added those requests for citations? I was not able to find out who put them in. They need to be removed anyway, and do I need someone's "permission" to remove them?
I looked at the following in wikipedia:
From Wikipedia Burden of Evidence page:
Any material lacking a reliable source may be removed, but how quickly this should happen depends on the material in question and the overall state of the article. Editors might object if you remove material without giving them enough time to provide references, especially in an underdeveloped article. It has always been good practice to make reasonable efforts to find sources oneself that support such material, and cite them.
From George Lucas Article page:
In 1969, Lucas married film editor Marcia Lou Griffin, who went on to win an Academy Award for her editing work on the original (Episode IV) Star Wars film.
All three of his children have appeared in the three Star Wars prequels, as has Lucas himself.
So the above and says that editors must be given time to provide references. It also shows that "everything" does not need to be, nor can it be, referenced.
So, Chzz, I would appreciate your assistance with this matter. What do you think? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cerberusrunning ( talk • contribs) 03:52, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Also would it not be better to move this article back to Wikipedia since it essentially an article about simple lung models and not a book or part of a book.

Thanks. I created a list of references, which appear as secondary sources. They all start with the artistes name. I added them to References, hoping somebody would link them with the main text. Instead, they keep being moved into External Links. Their relevance may not be appreciated until they are properly linked. I do not know how to link the links to the text. Could you do the first TWO, so I can see the way the HTML coding works. What buttons need to be used to do referencing besides the ref/ref button. How do they stay automatically numbered (in the right sequence)? Also, I am not sure whether simple, named or cited references can all be used. What happens if a reference needs to be cited but only a named/simple one is available. Thanks. ( Zanze123 ( talk) 18:03, 10 August 2009 (UTC))

HELP! I need the assistance of an august editor of your calibur. There is an article named Pentecostalism which left a lot to be desired as far as style and capitalzation. It is about a specific religious sect, and as such will provoke strong feelings. Whoever wrote the article capitalized any and all religious references. Can you please read comments on the page Talk:Pentecostalism? All the technical corrections I had made, including gross errors, were reverted to protect a point of view, I suspect. I conceded that Pentecostal references could be capitalized, but very many others were miles away from being proper names. I did earn a ThD degree, so religious terminology is not removed from my field of expertise. Thanks you so much. Respectfully yours, R/T-รัก-ไทย ( talk) 01:32, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
While I understand and agree with your tagging much of the Charles Dennis article for sources, and indeed the sheer number of the tags you placed is what inspired me to work on it, your tagging and then re-tagging the filmography section as unsourced got me worried, as it had never previously been policy to do so in the BLP of an actor. I asked the question at the relevent project in case I was doing something incorrect.

The purpose of Wikipedia as I understand it is to bring together everyone's contributions or at least gather everyone's opinions for a 'democratic' solution.

Hi thanks for being so helpful man. A lot of fans are still emotional with him passing and all and it really looks bad on wikipedia that after he dies he's now held to some insane standard nobody else on that list is held to. There have been countless sources listed for his 750 Million total. What more could anyone want? Also in effort of fairness I think MJ's total should be reverted back to the original amount that it has been for the past two years which is 750+ Million. Atleast until this is sorted out. On the "Protected Wikipedia page description" it states during times like these with heated debates it's usually best to revert everything back to the way it was originally in the effort of fairness.

Hi Chzz,
A number of suggestions have been made so far, Phyrrus suggested going back to the original figure of 750m whilst putting a disclaimer in there somewhere of the dispute for the figure, which doesn't sound like too bad a idea to me. At the same time I feel more effort should be made by contributors to research the recent past record sales reports prior to 2006, I have added relevant material in the rationale, but for the most part the discussion seems to be going down the page. Your input (not necessarily towards the topic) in regards to moderation and the direction this discussion should take to end this as quickly and efficiently as possible would be greatly appreciated. JFonseka ( talk) 00:48, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
No there should not be a footnote added because that is holding one artist out of the entire list to a different standard. If you MUST you can include a seperate colomn. One with the widely reported figures for these artists. Another with the one from databases. So that means you can still included the official numbers for The Beatles, Elvis, etc... But then include a second colomn with independently verified numbers. Bare in mind a colomn with only verified numbers would actually increase Jackson's position on the list as only second to the Beatles. So if that's what you want so be it. Atleast it would be a listwide change instead of singling Michael Jackson out unfairly.-- Mrparissm ( talk) 14:17, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

actually, thanks for stopping the discussion. i was offering suggestions to harout12 to peacefully continue with his work either doing so elsewhere on the net on his own page and maybe even offering a deal with a rock magazine, starting a new wiki page with his name on the title, or detailing all explanations of methodologies for all artists on the page itself. I don't know how many people on the discussion page are actually giving him suggestions - so I thought he would like the ideas. In response, he has ignored even considering the options and has been condescending and mocking me in all replies. I have in response defended myself, while trying to push for these options as possibilities. But it has erupted into both of us criticizing each other at the same time, so it is actually good that it has stopped. But I was wondering, can we offer him suggestions in a way that he may consider them? Vpuliva ( talk) 06:00, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply. What do you think of this - I wait a few days like you said, and add a new discussion section to the nature of: suggestions for those against recording label/company numbers, and then list as I did in my previous message. I feel it would be fair so that harout12 can continue with his work privately and without any interference and the public can continue work without the controversy or lack of control - unless you have a suggestion you feel would be more effective or fair.

For your information, I have NOT been attacking other editors. The two editors in question have been attacking me the past two days. Caden did not tell you the truth when he filed this administrative complain against me. He was attacking me, and so was the other editor by leaving ridiculous comments on my talk page. All I did was simply remove those comments from my talk page, an act that IS legal on Wikipedia. I did NOT go to the users respective talk pages and attacked them, as Caden claimed. These the other user is at fault for prolonging the so-called “fight” by was dealt with civility last week.
Caden is at fault for...
A. getting involved in something that was none of his business,
B. trying to ruthlessly atagonize a situation because that’s this nature, causing trouble with editors he had bad dealings with in the past. Trouble that he himself instigated on every single one.
C. filing a false complain on me for something I did not do, attacking another editor.
I already filed an incident report against the two of them for their nonsense towards me. If it wasn’t for the other users prolonging this issue, you would not be hearing from me (or Caden for that matter) to begin with. KeltieMartinFan ( talk) 14:11, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
HI Nicknack, Thanks for your speedy and helpful reply.
Of the sources I have quoted, 2 are the relevant websites which I guess would count as 'reliable self published sources', as these record the physical reality of the artists output.
Roger is dead and we only really have as sources the institutions where he studied and taught.
Other possible sources would be: the Royal College for the qualifications and awards,
The purpose of the article is to record the achievements of one of Britains most successful textile designers who received no recognition during his lifetime.We know it will not be straightforward, but feel it is important to get it right. Can you give me any advice?
Thankyou!

Hi again, Why doesn't Aichi Kinro Kaikan show up on pages likes the following? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Concert_halls_in_Japan I am a wikimaniac and these small things matter a great deal to me. Evangp Evangp ( talk) 17:10, 17 August 2009 (UTC) Please talk to me. I assume you are Japanese. I have been looking for a Japanese wikimaniac. I am from the USA. I hope you dont take offense because we bombed you in WWII. I'm sorry, but I wasn't even born. I need your help with other Japanese concert venues, not just Aichi Kinro Kaikan. Please build me a page about Senkei Hall, a concert venue that was in Tokyo, Japan. I don't know if it exists anymore, but it was a very important venue in its day during the 70's. LONG LIVE PEACE!! NO MORE WARS!!! Evangp Evangp ( talk) 17:16, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
Dagenham RoundhouseI would like to make one final request - Can you please create an article for the Dagenham Roundhouse? It was (is?) a famous concert venue in London, England. It is even referenced to in a number of wiki articles including the following!! LONG LIVE WIKIMANIACS!!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagenham Evangp ( talk) 17:45, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi my fellow friend! You did such a beautiful job on the Aichi Kinro Kaikan article I was hoping you'd create one more article for me. The Roundhouse in Dagenham would be my number one choice, but I also understand if you don't have the time. However, I do promise I'll make the next article if you make this one. I think I need to see one more article created from scratch. LONG LIVE WIKIMANIACS!! |
Chzz,
Graeme says we're ready to go live...what do you think? I'm still tracking down the references for those two red-lined sentences, and should have them shortly. After I do, can the article go live? I did a lot of revising, based on your earlier comments.
This is what Graeme wrote to me:
Hello Burkeguy, User:Burkeguy/Kathryn Troutman look ready for article space. Congratulations on getting the picture in. The process is extra difficult when you have to send the email. you should be able to use that move tab to shift it to Kathryn Troutman . I was a bit worried on the notability side, but there do seem to be plenty of references in independent publications, so it should be safe from deletion.
