So 2013 ended with many ups and downs, starting from the release of blockbuster movies, new OSs, gadgets, cars and bikes, improve in social networking etc to meeting new friends, improving our editing skills, forming new groups.
But it also brought sad movements like the death of Paul Walker, Nelson Mandela to Cyclones like Phailin, Haiyan etc.
Finally, I'd like to conclude that several ups and downs are must in every year but we must be fearless and have faith in divine.
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014.

I see you have created a sandbox for me in regards to my question asked about matching heights on the help desk. I understand how to use this template but what is the actual reason that these are not changing anymore when say I put 200 or 100 width they are staying the same size but the examples used on the template for multiple image do actually change as I tried it in my sandbox.
P.S - I hope you have had a nice Christmas and wish you the best for the New Year.-- Windows66 ( talk) 20:49, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
I've made it in my sandbox User:Windows66/sandbox, one is supposed to be 100 width and the other 400 width yet both appear the same size using this template, do you have any idea why (it really is confusing me!), Thank you.-- Windows66 ( talk) 15:56, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
| widthn1 =
should be | width1 =
--
Diannaa (
talk)
16:34, 1 January 2014 (UTC)But according to Template:Multiple_image#Matching_image_heights you should use widthn because the image is not a square image.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:49, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
But why on the Template:Multiple_image#Matching_image_heights is only the first image using the #expr: and the image2 is not yet for this I have to use #expr: on both the images is it because they are not square images?
I'm a tad confused, sorry. Thanks for your help.-- Windows66 ( talk) 19:26, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
Because even when using the widthn from say 400 to 100 the width still does not change?-- Windows66 ( talk) 19:27, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
| widthn1 =
will never work, because the template has no such parameter. Use | width1 =
, | width2 =
, etc. --
Diannaa (
talk)
21:03, 1 January 2014 (UTC)Okay I understand now and have used them templates for the Nuremberg Laws article as it is sits the images better on the article.
So when is it advised to use the widthn formula just that said non-square images and them two images are not square?-- Windows66 ( talk) 12:59, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Diannaa, thank you for adding the ISBNs (the ISBN finder on my user page was down the day I was adding the books, so I appreciate it), but why have you added caps on book titles at Simon Baron-Cohen? See Wikipedia:MOS#Titles of works; we use sentence case per MOS? Would you be able to easily change them back without losing ISBNs, or must I do them by hand? SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 04:40, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
On the watching, it's the tiring million little things every day that need cleanup; that date wasn't in the source, that phrase wasn't in the source, that's a primary source, things like that-- it just requires constant vigilance, which got tiring. One hopes s/he would understand that we find a source, and then write from it; not write what we want to say, and then try to shoehorn a source to fit. I had left a lot of section headings for expansion, as s/he comes back every day to plop in more primary sources, so I at least wanted him/her to know where to put new content. And I had left headings for topics I knew she/he wanted more emphasis on, which you reduced and consolidated. So, we'll see.
Thanks again, SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 06:51, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
The article should not need daily editing, as events are not happening daily. Adding breathless content like the stuff I took out from the New York Times is not helping, for sure. I am pretty sure it's a COI editor, the subject of the article or his publisher or his publicist. -- Diannaa ( talk) 13:31, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
Diannaa, this would be off-topic at Talk:Simon Baron-Cohen, so I'll put it here. I learned autism research via the overlap that occurs with Tourette syndrome (that is, historically many parents of children with autism thought their children had TS because autism also includes tics, and before the differential diagnosis was better established, many doctors misdiagnosed autistic children as having TS). In TS, it's well acknowledged that ... well ... Europe is not where the good research is happening ... even the European researchers themselves have said that the real action is in the US. Research on neuropsychiatric conditions in children lags for some weird reason on the other side of the pond, while in the US, really good work is happening with some stellar researchers who are deeply committed, not to making headlines, but to the welfare of the children and families they study (have a look at Donald J. Cohen). If you want to get an idea of who's who in autism happenings, google "autism centers for excellence". That's a program where the US NIH has funneled GOBS of money to the top autism researchers in North America, with annual grants (different centers may get awards every year). The same names pop up frequently-- and you'll see many of those names are researchers like Helen Tager-Flusberg who have commented in the laypress about the problems with the research coming out of Cambridge. Top autism researchers in the US don't need publicists. I don't know autism research as solidly as I know TS, but I know Europe lags in TS, because something is happening "right" in the US, where Europe hasn't kept up when it comes to childhood neuropsychiatric disorders. I don't know of any top US autism or TS researcher who has pop psychology books for sale. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 18:06, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

..can you help me keep an eye on my friend here on Sikhism. He keeps sneakily deleting refernces and readding complete pigeon English jibberish from dubious sources. I am keen to ensure that that article does not become a veiled foriegn language article that no one West of Karachi can understand. I'm trying to "Anglocise" it by adding headings which students can easily pick up on. I'm also trying to make it short and punchy. My friend has a habit of creating long tortuos sentences (as then tend to in India), that make perfect sense to him but no one else. He lacks basic WP:Competence in English.

Can we not tweak other words to avoid such copyright just the book itself does have a preview section via Google books and the marriage order would not allow people to be bride and groom unless the marriage was approved, hence the themselves and fiancee's wording because before being approved of marriage they had to present evidence for both themselves to be of Aryan descent to 1800.
The book copyright is "SS members who wished to marry had to produce family trees for themselves and their fiancee's stretching back to 1800"
At current "Himmler introduced the "marriage order", which required SS men wishing to marry to produce family trees proving that both the bride's and groom's families were of Aryan descent to 1800."
Can it not be changed to themselves and fiancée’s?-- Windows66 ( talk) 07:29, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

Hey Diannaa, hope all is well with you. Could you please indef semi-protect this page, please?

Thanks in advance. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 00:24, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa, some time ago you applied indef-semi to
Circumcision with the rationale "Persistent vandalism: Addition of poorly sourced material; important medical article", see
protection log. In the past 2 weeks, the article got full-protected twice due to edit-warring. The second of those expired Sunday afternoon, and as you might be aware (I wasn't until this happened!), even if an article has an indef prot setting, if it gets a time-limited ad hoc protection setting, when that expires, it doesn't return to the previous setting, and instead it returns back to full unprot. Since then the article has drawn the kind of
unsourced IP edit that prompted the original indef-semi, could you restore it please (both edits and move)? Thanks...

Hi. Gareth Griffith-Jones suggested I join this group and begin working on the backlog, since I wish to get more involved. I chose one of the oldest articles (from November 2012): /info/en/?search=Kentucky_Wesleyan_Panthers_football. It did suggest to give you a buzz with any questions.

Hello again, Diannaa! I was hoping to get a rangeblock (163.32.124.0/24) on yet another pest that I've been tracking for quite awhile. I'm not sure if I've asked you to deal with this one before, so I'll fill you in. Sven70 ( talk · contribs) is a disruptive IP-hopper from Taiwan who has been falsely claiming "disabled abuse" here for years, and he regularly trolls the project with the same old disproven claims on some of our most trafficked pages (e.g. [4], [5]). Sven70 claims to, or actually does, suffer from repetitive stress injury, which explains the bizarre "shorthand" that many understandably dismiss as gibberish vandalism. But in fact, the shorthand always translates to things like "Fuck you disabled-hating fascists!" and "Disabled-hating assholes!" when he pops up out of nowhere with a new thread on AN/I or Jimbo's page. He is very likely my next LTA report. In the meantime, since he to get the message (first part roughly translating to "You people will be exposed as disabled-hating assholes..."), could we get a rangeblock? I've checked the range contributions and 99% of the IPs are all him. I appreciate any help you can give here as always! Cheers :) Doc talk 06:58, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

Please update your totals and continue to do so until February 1. If the status of a review is under review or on hold according to the backlog page, even though the article may have passed/failed, it will not count towards your final total.

Diannaa I was wondering if you can help me please, the user Yatzhek is continuing to revert an edit by themselves which is not correct and I have tried to create a talk section on the article and the users talk page but I am just getting personally attacked and the edit reverted back.
The two discussions can be found here Talk:Black people in Nazi Germany#Ethnic Poles and User talk:Yatzhek#Ethnic Poles were Aryans.
I have given evidence that Poles were 'Aryan' but the user is continuing to reply without any genuine text or any sources and is reverting back to the article that is incorrect.
The reasons for the reverts can be found https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Black_people_in_Nazi_Germany&action=history and the user is not actually debating but rather just reverting back without any sources given, the source given does not state what the user is trying to keep into the article.
When providing evidence I am getting replies like "Please stop littering my wall with tons of information which you don't understand." here
Could you be willing to help please?-- Windows66 ( talk) 14:32, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
I've reported the user to the noticeboard here for lack of cooperation and simply reverting the article and personal attacks such as:
"I have an irresistable feeling that you are trying to "steer" the historical truth. You are from England, so you are either anti-Polish racist and hate the fact that Poles suffered racial persecution in their own country, or you are Polish and strongly want to be a full-fledged member of the Stormfront forum. That's all. Thank you." [7]
" How dare you discredit the Polish suffering during the Shoa by saying that Poles were treated as Aryans? /info/en/?search=Holocaust_victims - Hope you read the whole of my message and educate yourself. Thank you." [8]
It might be nothing but I have noticed User:Tobby72 is doing exactly what User:Yatzhek is doing and copying and pasting material from one articles talk page to another, could you check these are not the same person please? I have a funny feeling it is.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:05, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
Could just be a coincidence that both of them copied and pasted the same thing twice into different articles. Multiple people are not telling me that I am wrong about Poles being Aryan, the user Tobby72 does not seem to be agreeing with the user Yatzhek that Poles were "racially non-Aryan" in the slightest, nor that "only Germans were Aryans according to Nazi ideology" (words of Yatzhek), in fact Tobby72 does not dispute Poles were Aryan (not that I am aware of), they were put into the 'Aryan side' of ghettos, the ancestors passport mentioned Poles and no "racial theory" could be found against Poles to satisfy the Nazis racial theories. There doesn't seem to be any issue with other Wikipedia editors that Poles were Aryan but the user Yatzhek refuses to admit this and when evidence is given his/her way the user resorts to personal attacks and insults.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:20, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
The personal attacks are continuing, I've placed it in the ANI complaint.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:36, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
I don't take kindly to being called a "racist" and I am NOT anti-Polish so stop saying both of these things. I only delete information that is not verified by academic genuine sources. I have showed you information on why the removal was necessary; on the basis of "race" no Nazi racial theory could be used for the discrimination against the ethnic Poles and they were racially regarded the same as Germans. The whole problem started with stuff like "non-Aryans along with Jews, Poles" being added into articles when firstly it is incorrect and secondly the source given does not even mention Poles. I deleted the "ethnic Poles" from the beginning because the racism against Poles was not 'race based' as they were essentially the same race as the Germans and the Nuremberg Laws classified Gypsies as race enemies which is why I left the text "Gypsies" still there.
Please show me where I have put any white-supremacist data into any article, talk page or anywhere on Wikipedia? This sort of stuff should not be taken lightly to say to another, please provide evidence of this. I AM DYING FOR YOU TO SHOW ME THIS.
If you actually went ahead and looked at my contributions, I have actually contributed to crimes against Poles by the Nazis.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:52, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
Yatzhek, calling people a racist is unacceptable; it's a personal attack, and treating your fellow editors that way could lead to you being blocked from editing. Please focus your work on the content and do not speculate on other editor's motivations. -- Diannaa ( talk) 16:56, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
You can't expect me to sit here and allow you to call me every name under the sun, personally attack me time after time after I warned you and of course I have reported you and rightly so, you have no right to call me this.
I have told you, I did remove the Poles and the Serbs from it because the source given does not say that and it is incorrect. You called me a white supremacist because why? You said I put data that was full of white supremacy which is nothing but plain out lies. "Aryans" are Slavic people too, you cannot deny this. The Nazis themselves acknowledged this and regarded Slavs as Aryan. Racism was used against Slavs and I have never denied that but it was not an official policy of Nazi Germany, some Nazis were not anti-Slavic, some of the countries allied were Slavic, etc. I have shown you truth and historical facts regarding the ethnic Poles. It is nothing to do with writing my own history, it is about you realizing that the source given did not cover what you say and evidence refutes it. I did not once personally attack you and you have called me all sorts, this would obviously not go down nicely.
As you can see Diannaa the user is not interested in debating with me or on any of the talk pages but rather personally attacking me and using the sympathy card, pathetic.-- Windows66 ( talk) 17:12, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
Diannaa I want to ask you whether or not you will semi-protect the article Black people in Nazi Germany, the tedious and ridiculous reverts still are happening, I have my suspicions that Yatzhek is using sock puppets, I have had more personal attacks and random IP addresses on my talk page and editing on the article, see...

Thank you again for helping me in the past with a serious reference template problem.
Recently I have been editing articles related to homelessness in Canada and I noticed that the Homeless Hub is automatically rejected because of allegations of spam or blacklisting several years ago. York University professor, Stephen Gaetz is the Principal Investigator and Director of the Homeless Hub. It is partially funded through a Gaetz' 2008 multi-year grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) to establish the Canadian Homelessness Research Network. The Homeless Hub is an online research library and information centre containing more than 25,000 homelessness related items. It is unclear why it was blacklisted. It is very unfortunate that this site has not been cleared since then. Repeatedly when I find pivotal articles related to homelessness in wikipedia articles that are referenced but without any url, it is because the full-text digital form of the article is only found on this blacklisted site. The site itself is very well organized and is a very complete reference tool. Gaetz is also the secretary of the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness with Alex Himelfarb as Chair and Tim Richter as Vice-Chair.
How can this be moved along and the blacklisting removed? I did leave a request on one of the recommended pages but it all seems a bit of a maze to me. Thank you for any help you can give me. oceanflynn 03:12, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa, maybe you can help me with something that (otherwise) I really don't see being resolved any time soon. It's about what type of poster should be used in Hunger film article.
Now, since the film is a British production, I think that, per Film poster#Film poster sizes, it should use a British version of the poster, like any other film produced by UK studio, but Bartallen2 constantly replaces my poster without even discussing it first because he thinks that his version of the poster (which is American) should be used instead. I know that every film that is produced by UK studio should use UK release poster, but it seem that the guy won't even listen to what I'm trying to tell him, since he's not yet responded to any of my posts. Can you please take a look at all of this and help, so I can leave all of this behind, because it's getting really annoying. Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English.

Hi,
I'm not sure whether you can do anything to help - I'm asking for your opinion because you were the user who locked Malta from editing by IPs/non-registered users.

Hi Diannaa - Your judicious editing has not gone unnoticed. Sometimes I am given to pedantry and my sentences will be a tad convoluted. This is a consequence I think of growing up speaking German and English. You've done a great job brushing up imprecise grammar and sentence structure. I appreciate it.

I'd like to ask you to reconsider this change you made earlier this month. The copyvio guidelines don't seem to call for irreversible actions like that. Ellen Osiier was (and is) a brief stub, and any plagiarism would have been a minor affair. I wonder why you did not simply delete or change the offending text? I would have been happy to do so myself if I had seen a template or talkpage notice. It discourages a volunteer to see contributions needlessly expunged from project history.

Hi again mate. I have another favor to ask. I recently made an article regarding a Danish city called "Mundelstrup". However, to distinguish it from other cities with the same name, I made a new one called "Mundelstrup, Denmark".

Could you please provide an explanation as to why the elevation map of the city of New Orleans was deleted? I am the creator and uploader of the image. It was an update to a previous map. The deletion reasoning claims "F4: File without a source for more than 7 days," although I am fairly confident that I did provide copyright information. The map was used by that page for several months without being marked. The map that was replaced by mine also had clear copyright information (that author relinquished it to the public domain, and specifically asked people to make improvements to it). I'm confused as to why, if there was a concern, the image wasn't just reverted back to the previous one until this issue could be resolved? Instead the image was just deleted, breaking the link to the image on the pages where it is referenced? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Slincoln ( talk • contribs) 22:43, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi! I'd like to know what did you mean by "There's only been one IP edit in the last two weeks" [12]. Sorry if my request was clumsy. What I meant by it was impossible to talk is it is meaningless to leave message on the user's multiple talk pages. I think it's irrelevant to talk about the misuse of warning template [13] [14] and inappropriate edit summary [15] [16] on the article talk page, but because of the IP changes, I don't think the user see his/her previous IP talk pages. I want to talk with the Amazon user with 54.199. xxx.xxx. IP on one user's talk page. That was why I asked for semi-protection of the article. As for the article talk page protection, it was my mistake. If the article is semi-protected and the user wants to edit the article, s/he has to create an account and I can talk on the user's talk page. If there's a way that I can talk to the editor with multiple IPs on one user's talk page, please let me know. Regards. Oda Mari ( talk) 15:35, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

So 2013 ended with many ups and downs, starting from the release of blockbuster movies, new OSs, gadgets, cars and bikes, improve in social networking etc to meeting new friends, improving our editing skills, forming new groups.
But it also brought sad movements like the death of Paul Walker, Nelson Mandela to Cyclones like Phailin, Haiyan etc.
Finally, I'd like to conclude that several ups and downs are must in every year but we must be fearless and have faith in divine.

I see you have created a sandbox for me in regards to my question asked about matching heights on the help desk. I understand how to use this template but what is the actual reason that these are not changing anymore when say I put 200 or 100 width they are staying the same size but the examples used on the template for multiple image do actually change as I tried it in my sandbox.
P.S - I hope you have had a nice Christmas and wish you the best for the New Year.-- Windows66 ( talk) 20:49, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

On the watching, it's the tiring million little things every day that need cleanup; that date wasn't in the source, that phrase wasn't in the source, that's a primary source, things like that-- it just requires constant vigilance, which got tiring. One hopes s/he would understand that we find a source, and then write from it; not write what we want to say, and then try to shoehorn a source to fit. I had left a lot of section headings for expansion, as s/he comes back every day to plop in more primary sources, so I at least wanted him/her to know where to put new content. And I had left headings for topics I knew she/he wanted more emphasis on, which you reduced and consolidated. So, we'll see.

The article should not need daily editing, as events are not happening daily. Adding breathless content like the stuff I took out from the New York Times is not helping, for sure.

Diannaa, this would be off-topic at Talk:Simon Baron-Cohen, so I'll put it here. I learned autism research via the overlap that occurs with Tourette syndrome (that is, historically many parents of children with autism thought their children had TS because autism also includes tics, and before the differential diagnosis was better established, many doctors misdiagnosed autistic children as having TS). In TS, it's well acknowledged that ... well ... Europe is not where the good research is happening ... even the European researchers themselves have said that the real action is in the US. Research on neuropsychiatric conditions in children lags for some weird reason on the other side of the pond, while in the US, really good work is happening with some stellar researchers who are deeply committed, not to making headlines, but to the welfare of the children and families they study (have a look at Donald J. Cohen). If you want to get an idea of who's who in autism happenings, google "autism centers for excellence". That's a program where the US NIH has funneled GOBS of money to the top autism researchers in North America, with annual grants (different centers may get awards every year). The same names pop up frequently-- and you'll see many of those names are researchers like Helen Tager-Flusberg who have commented in the laypress about the problems with the research coming out of Cambridge. Top autism researchers in the US don't need publicists. I don't know autism research as solidly as I know TS, but I know Europe lags in TS, because something is happening "right" in the US, where Europe hasn't kept up when it comes to childhood neuropsychiatric disorders. I don't know of any top US autism or TS researcher who has pop psychology books for sale. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 18:06, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

Can we not tweak other words to avoid such copyright just the book itself does have a preview section via Google books and the marriage order would not allow people to be bride and groom unless the marriage was approved, hence the themselves and fiancee's wording because before being approved of marriage they had to present evidence for both themselves to be of Aryan descent to 1800.
The book copyright is "SS members who wished to marry had to produce family trees for themselves and their fiancee's stretching back to 1800"
At current "Himmler introduced the "marriage order", which required SS men wishing to marry to produce family trees proving that both the bride's and groom's families were of Aryan descent to 1800."

Hi Diannaa, some time ago you applied indef-semi to
Circumcision with the rationale "Persistent vandalism: Addition of poorly sourced material; important medical article", see
protection log. In the past 2 weeks, the article got full-protected twice due to edit-warring. The second of those expired Sunday afternoon, and as you might be aware (I wasn't until this happened!), even if an article has an indef prot setting, if it gets a time-limited ad hoc protection setting, when that expires, it doesn't return to the previous setting, and instead it returns back to full unprot. Since then the article has drawn the kind of
unsourced IP edit that prompted the original indef-semi, could you restore it please (both edits and move)? Thanks...

Hi. Gareth Griffith-Jones suggested I join this group and begin working on the backlog, since I wish to get more involved. I chose one of the oldest articles (from November 2012): /info/en/?search=Kentucky_Wesleyan_Panthers_football. It did suggest to give you a buzz with any questions. Since this was my first attempt, I'd like someone to review it and see if it's okay. Also, if it is okay, I don't know how to (or if I should) remove it from the copy edit list. Thanks for any assistance you can give me.

Hello again, Diannaa! I was hoping to get a rangeblock (163.32.124.0/24) on yet another pest that I've been tracking for quite awhile. I'm not sure if I've asked you to deal with this one before, so I'll fill you in. Sven70 ( talk · contribs) is a disruptive IP-hopper from Taiwan who has been falsely claiming "disabled abuse" here for years, and he regularly trolls the project with the same old disproven claims on some of our most trafficked pages (e.g. [4], [5]). Sven70 claims to, or actually does, suffer from repetitive stress injury, which explains the bizarre "shorthand" that many understandably dismiss as gibberish vandalism. But in fact, the shorthand always translates to things like "Fuck you disabled-hating fascists!" and "Disabled-hating assholes!" when he pops up out of nowhere with a new thread on AN/I or Jimbo's page. He is very likely my next LTA report. In the meantime, since he to get the message (first part roughly translating to "You people will be exposed as disabled-hating assholes..."), could we get a rangeblock? I've checked the range contributions and 99% of the IPs are all him. I appreciate any help you can give here as always! Cheers :) Doc talk 06:58, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi everyone, I've noticed that a few of you haven't updated your totals as several reviews have passed but on the backlog page, it still says that the article is under review or on hold.
Please update your totals and continue to do so until February 1. If the status of a review is under review or on hold according to the backlog page, even though the article may have passed/failed, it will not count towards your final total.
For those that made pledges during the drive, the final donation amount will be determined sometime in February.

Diannaa I was wondering if you can help me please, the user Yatzhek is continuing to revert an edit by themselves which is not correct and I have tried to create a talk section on the article and the users talk page but I am just getting personally attacked and the edit reverted back.
The two discussions can be found here Talk:Black people in Nazi Germany#Ethnic Poles and User talk:Yatzhek#Ethnic Poles were Aryans.
I have given evidence that Poles were 'Aryan' but the user is continuing to reply without any genuine text or any sources and is reverting back to the article that is incorrect.
The reasons for the reverts can be found https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Black_people_in_Nazi_Germany&action=history and the user is not actually debating but rather just reverting back without any sources given, the source given does not state what the user is trying to keep into the article.
When providing evidence I am getting replies like "Please stop littering my wall with tons of information which you don't understand." here
Could you be willing to help please?-- Windows66 ( talk) 14:32, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
I've reported the user to the noticeboard here for lack of cooperation and simply reverting the article and personal attacks such as:
"I have an irresistable feeling that you are trying to "steer" the historical truth. You are from England, so you are either anti-Polish racist and hate the fact that Poles suffered racial persecution in their own country, or you are Polish and strongly want to be a full-fledged member of the Stormfront forum. That's all. Thank you." [7]
" How dare you discredit the Polish suffering during the Shoa by saying that Poles were treated as Aryans? /info/en/?search=Holocaust_victims - Hope you read the whole of my message and educate yourself. Thank you." [8]
It might be nothing but I have noticed User:Tobby72 is doing exactly what User:Yatzhek is doing and copying and pasting material from one articles talk page to another, could you check these are not the same person please? I have a funny feeling it is.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:05, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
Could just be a coincidence that both of them copied and pasted the same thing twice into different articles. Multiple people are not telling me that I am wrong about Poles being Aryan, the user Tobby72 does not seem to be agreeing with the user Yatzhek that Poles were "racially non-Aryan" in the slightest, nor that "only Germans were Aryans according to Nazi ideology" (words of Yatzhek), in fact Tobby72 does not dispute Poles were Aryan (not that I am aware of), they were put into the 'Aryan side' of ghettos, the ancestors passport mentioned Poles and no "racial theory" could be found against Poles to satisfy the Nazis racial theories. There doesn't seem to be any issue with other Wikipedia editors that Poles were Aryan but the user Yatzhek refuses to admit this and when evidence is given his/her way the user resorts to personal attacks and insults.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:20, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
The personal attacks are continuing, I've placed it in the ANI complaint.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:36, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
I don't take kindly to being called a "racist" and I am NOT anti-Polish so stop saying both of these things. I only delete information that is not verified by academic genuine sources. I have showed you information on why the removal was necessary; on the basis of "race" no Nazi racial theory could be used for the discrimination against the ethnic Poles and they were racially regarded the same as Germans. The whole problem started with stuff like "non-Aryans along with Jews, Poles" being added into articles when firstly it is incorrect and secondly the source given does not even mention Poles. I deleted the "ethnic Poles" from the beginning because the racism against Poles was not 'race based' as they were essentially the same race as the Germans and the Nuremberg Laws classified Gypsies as race enemies which is why I left the text "Gypsies" still there.
Please show me where I have put any white-supremacist data into any article, talk page or anywhere on Wikipedia? This sort of stuff should not be taken lightly to say to another, please provide evidence of this. I AM DYING FOR YOU TO SHOW ME THIS.
If you actually went ahead and looked at my contributions, I have actually contributed to crimes against Poles by the Nazis.-- Windows66 ( talk) 16:52, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
Yatzhek, calling people a racist is unacceptable; it's a personal attack, and treating your fellow editors that way could lead to you being blocked from editing. Please focus your work on the content and do not speculate on other editor's motivations. -- Diannaa ( talk) 16:56, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
You can't expect me to sit here and allow you to call me every name under the sun, personally attack me time after time after I warned you and of course I have reported you and rightly so, you have no right to call me this.
I have told you, I did remove the Poles and the Serbs from it because the source given does not say that and it is incorrect. You called me a white supremacist because why? You said I put data that was full of white supremacy which is nothing but plain out lies. "Aryans" are Slavic people too, you cannot deny this. The Nazis themselves acknowledged this and regarded Slavs as Aryan. Racism was used against Slavs and I have never denied that but it was not an official policy of Nazi Germany, some Nazis were not anti-Slavic, some of the countries allied were Slavic, etc. I have shown you truth and historical facts regarding the ethnic Poles. It is nothing to do with writing my own history, it is about you realizing that the source given did not cover what you say and evidence refutes it. I did not once personally attack you and you have called me all sorts, this would obviously not go down nicely.
As you can see Diannaa the user is not interested in debating with me or on any of the talk pages but rather personally attacking me and using the sympathy card, pathetic.-- Windows66 ( talk) 17:12, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
Diannaa I want to ask you whether or not you will semi-protect the article Black people in Nazi Germany, the tedious and ridiculous reverts still are happening, I have my suspicions that Yatzhek is using sock puppets, I have had more personal attacks and random IP addresses on my talk page and editing on the article, see... [9], [10], [11]. It seems a coincidence that two IP addresses are behaving like this.-- Windows66 ( talk) 17:59, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Thank you again for helping me in the past with a serious reference template problem.
Recently I have been editing articles related to homelessness in Canada and I noticed that the Homeless Hub is automatically rejected because of allegations of spam or blacklisting several years ago. York University professor, Stephen Gaetz is the Principal Investigator and Director of the Homeless Hub. It is partially funded through a Gaetz' 2008 multi-year grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) to establish the Canadian Homelessness Research Network. The Homeless Hub is an online research library and information centre containing more than 25,000 homelessness related items. It is unclear why it was blacklisted. It is very unfortunate that this site has not been cleared since then. Repeatedly when I find pivotal articles related to homelessness in wikipedia articles that are referenced but without any url, it is because the full-text digital form of the article is only found on this blacklisted site. The site itself is very well organized and is a very complete reference tool. Gaetz is also the secretary of the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness with Alex Himelfarb as Chair and Tim Richter as Vice-Chair.
How can this be moved along and the blacklisting removed? I did leave a request on one of the recommended pages but it all seems a bit of a maze to me. Thank you for any help you can give me. oceanflynn 03:12, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa, maybe you can help me with something that (otherwise) I really don't see being resolved any time soon. It's about what type of poster should be used in Hunger film article.
Now, since the film is a British production, I think that, per Film poster#Film poster sizes, it should use a British version of the poster, like any other film produced by UK studio, but Bartallen2 constantly replaces my poster without even discussing it first because he thinks that his version of the poster (which is American) should be used instead. I know that every film that is produced by UK studio should use UK release poster, but it seem that the guy won't even listen to what I'm trying to tell him, since he's not yet responded to any of my posts. Can you please take a look at all of this and help, so I can leave all of this behind, because it's getting really annoying. Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English.

I'd like to ask you to reconsider this change you made earlier this month. The copyvio guidelines don't seem to call for irreversible actions like that. Ellen Osiier was (and is) a brief stub, and any plagiarism would have been a minor affair. I wonder why you did not simply delete or change the offending text? I would have been happy to do so myself if I had seen a template or talkpage notice. It discourages a volunteer to see contributions needlessly expunged from project history.

Could you please provide an explanation as to why the elevation map of the city of New Orleans was deleted? I am the creator and uploader of the image. It was an update to a previous map. The deletion reasoning claims "F4: File without a source for more than 7 days," although I am fairly confident that I did provide copyright information. The map was used by that page for several months without being marked. The map that was replaced by mine also had clear copyright information (that author relinquished it to the public domain, and specifically asked people to make improvements to it). I'm confused as to why, if there was a concern, the image wasn't just reverted back to the previous one until this issue could be resolved? Instead the image was just deleted, breaking the link to the image on the pages where it is referenced? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Slincoln ( talk • contribs) 22:43, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi! I'd like to know what did you mean by "There's only been one IP edit in the last two weeks" [12]. Sorry if my request was clumsy. What I meant by it was impossible to talk is it is meaningless to leave message on the user's multiple talk pages. I think it's irrelevant to talk about the misuse of warning template [13] [14] and inappropriate edit summary [15] [16] on the article talk page, but because of the IP changes, I don't think the user see his/her previous IP talk pages. I want to talk with the Amazon user with 54.199. xxx.xxx. IP on one user's talk page. That was why I asked for semi-protection of the article. As for the article talk page protection, it was my mistake. If the article is semi-protected and the user wants to edit the article, s/he has to create an account and I can talk on the user's talk page. If there's a way that I can talk to the editor with multiple IPs on one user's talk page, please let me know. Regards. Oda Mari ( talk) 15:35, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
