Just checked your message about me having added "wordplay" in the Word play article. I checked 4 English dictionaries that I have, and found out that one of them (Cambridge Advanced Learners' Dictionary 3th Edition, the most recent edition) contained an entry of "wordplay", which I thought would be nice to be added on the Wikipedia article to show another way the word can possibly be written. I don't see it correct to say that "It's not a word." Thank you, Have a nice day. 116.33.171.229 ( talk) 17:23, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

The additions are awesome. I think I had come across some info about the Federal compensation, but somehow it didn't make it to the article. I started down this road after doing some reading about the Old Capitol in Tuscaloosa, so I created the article for William Nichols (architect). It lead me to create the articles for the Gorgas-Manly Historic District, President's Mansion (University of Alabama) and University of Alabama Quad. I also did a complete rewrite of what is now the Old University of Alabama Observatory, which had the old observatory and the modern one jumbled up together as though they were the same building. I hadn't realized that so little of UA's history had been covered here. Thanks for the improvements. Please add anything to the others that you feel is missing or incorrect.

Mind if I ask you how you arrived at "orally transmitted" from "solo se encuentra escrito en las historias transmitidas"?

Hello, Drmies! This is just a note thanking you for participating in my
recent Request for Adminship, which passed with a total of 93 support !votes, 1 oppose and 3 editors remaining neutral. While frankly overwhelmed by the level of support, I humbly thank the community for the trust it has placed in me, and vow to use the tools judiciously and without malice. |
I am the author of Son of Scarface, please go to the history and see that I made it and fixed it up many times because people said he wasn't notable many times. I am the author and the one who is requesting removal. So it's not the right tag to use? What tag do I use then?
Thank you for your help, I am always still learning as I go.

Thank you for the help. Still the work is mostly mine, I would just edit it when it got tagged which is mostly what other editors did to it. The content is still 95% written by me. Funnily, I now agree with the arguments that he is not notable. Most of his references are from his website & the book is self-published but made to look like it's not.

I'm sorry I do not remember the details of editing that page but I remember feeling sorry for the guy because of comments...I believe someone in the editing history was calling him a douchebag... In any case, I am hurt/confused by comment on my talk page, I didn't read it too carefully regarding the mistakes I made -cited something incorrectly or from wrong source I believe- because my eyes couldn't get over the "not going to mention what this suggests" -paraphrased. Please do mention what it suggests. Saying you would not even mention what it suggests is worse than just telling me what it suggests. What does it suggest? You think I work for him? I've made mistakes -there is another comment on my talk page about another mistake and it was placed there just a few days ago I believe- but I've been contributing for a long time -all sorts of articles, vandal cleanup, minor edits, list additions- so I hope Chris Knight Capone has a lot of money because he owes me overtime.

Weird, I think we both posted at exactly the same time --it said "Edit Conflict"-- and the text I left you disappeared so now I'm re-entering it. I went back and looked at your comment and searched to see if I could find how it was that I had included erroneous information and I found it. It's on Chris Knight Capone's website for the book.

Just because a book is published doesn't make it a credible and mainstream source: "Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts, or with no editorial oversight. Such sources include websites and publications expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, or promotional in nature, or which rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions. Questionable sources should only be used as sources of material on themselves, especially in articles about themselves. (See below.) Questionable sources are generally unsuitable as a basis for citing contentious claims about third parties."

Hello Drmies. Thanks for your attention on the topic related to Carnatic Music, the English name of Karnataka Music. I agree with you that I might not have presented the matter as clearly as it should be. I was making an observation based is RS that was already made by many users in the past. The issue is more than ‘father’ vs ‘founder’. It is about preventing an effort to rewrite the history by misusing wikipedia. I will do more research into what has expired in wikipedia and provide details.

Hi Drmies! Just a friendly note to not always rush into calling an edit "vandalism" and using rollback, as you did with this edit. In this case, the editor added a {{ hangon}} tag, and accidentially removed the SD tag. This happens all the time with new editors. The best and easiest thing to do is just re-add the SD tag, with possibly adding {{ uw-speedy1}} to the editor's user page. Calling it "vandalism" is slightly beyond WP:AGF. More importantly, by using rollback without looking at the history, you removed a number of content-adding edits that could not be considered vandalism.

Another SEC team got absolutely dominated today as U Conn came out of the Big-East to roll Auburn. And Tennessee got crushed by Virginia Tech out of the ACC. We know you guys can't match up against the WAC after Alabama got throttled last year by Utah. Maybe next year the schedulers should try arrange more MAC matchups for the SEC so you guys can have a chance on the field with better parity vis a vis your opponents? It seems like the only teams you guys can beat are the ones that don't have coaches. Notre Dame certainly did a lot better against U Conn, at least taking them to overtime. Maybe Auburn should see if they can trade up from Spurrier to Charlie Weis?

Your message about the speedy deletion of TRAZ caught me by surprise, as TRAZ is a famous video game and deserves a mention.

Hey Drmies,
I note your redirect of the recently created Malik R. Dahlan article, with the comment that "subject is not notable". Whilst I appreciate fully your desire to ensure that only noteworthy articles remain present on Wikipedia, I feel that you should reconsider your judgment in this instance. Malik R. Dahlan is one of the most prominent young legal and policy experts in the Middle East and the Arab World, and the Director of the Qatar Law Forum, an international legal event of great significance in the legal sphere.
I suggest cordially that, rather than redirecting the article arbitrarily, you raise the issue in the article's Talk page first.
Please feel free to message me should you wish to discuss this matter in greater depth.
Best wishes. CrimeCentral ( talk) 20:32, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
You know, you could be much more helpful by correcting a style of mis-formatted infomation, if you were to send a note to the offending party, and correct the problem, rather than to DELETE information simply because it doesn't match style. I'm fortunate I revisited the page or I might not have noticed you turned information I researched and posted into a BLANK. I will further comment that the format instructions we are supposed to follow could not be much more obtuse if they had been intended to be. Trackinfo ( talk) 22:20, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

But the the encyclopedia is shaped by people's POV and what is notable to them sometimes I end up feeling extremely uncertain of what people deem notable as the response is often a paradox and they'll vote to keep lists of Pokemon characters and Youtube amateurs yet vote to delete an Estonian painter and member of the national art academy.

I missed the previous PROD. That was my error. However, I don't think you needed to be sarcastic in your edit summaries, which you did several times. To be perfectly blunt, I'm sick of doing research to source articles that the author was simply too lazy to bother sourcing himself. I'm tired of doing legwork because someone else wants to just throw articles up, without even bothering to format them correctly, let alone source them properly. If it is something obviously notable, that's one thing. But when the claim to notability isn't even evident in the article, which is wasn't when I prodded it, and there are no sources at all, I don't feel bad about seeing it go away. Niteshift36 ( talk) 00:25, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
Since you happen to be online (maybe).... The article Cashis discography was nominated for AfD. The result, since it contained only one notable album, was to redirect to the artists page ( Cashis). On the artists page, User:JBSupreme and I removed unsourced and non-notable items. I also removed a section about feuds with other rappers after I took it to the RSN and it was agreed that there was BLP issues involved. I also removed non-notable items from Template:Cashis and explained that the templates are an aid in navigation, not advertising. However User:174.3.59.151 has been undoing them, simply restoring everything that has been removed by policies or by AfD consensus. I'm not the only one reverting the vandalism (although it's starting to look more like an edit war and I don't want to get caught up in that). Last exchange on his talk page was when I told him the discography needed sourced and he stated they don't need sources. Perhaps you can talk some sense into him.

The additions are awesome. I think I had come across some info about the Federal compensation, but somehow it didn't make it to the article. I started down this road after doing some reading about the Old Capitol in Tuscaloosa, so I created the article for William Nichols (architect). It lead me to create the articles for the Gorgas-Manly Historic District, President's Mansion (University of Alabama) and University of Alabama Quad. I also did a complete rewrite of what is now the Old University of Alabama Observatory, which had the old observatory and the modern one jumbled up together as though they were the same building.

Just because a book is published doesn't make it a credible and mainstream source: "Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts, or with no editorial oversight. Such sources include websites and publications expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, or promotional in nature, or which rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions. Questionable sources should only be used as sources of material on themselves, especially in articles about themselves. (See below.) Questionable sources are generally unsuitable as a basis for citing contentious claims about third parties."

Hello, my friend. About your revert on the article Brazil were you said that "rather vague, adds little or nothing to the article) and text--the best literature in the world? as proven by a blog? no.", I agree 100%. I would also like to add that the editor who wrote that committed a mistake: he translated "novela" (soap opera) as "novel". Not only that, but after reading the text that it's in Portuguese the opinion that Brazil has the greatest soap operas in the world came from a Brazilian director... of soap operas! -- Lecen ( talk) 23:33, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Hello Drmies. Thanks for your attention on the topic related to Carnatic Music, the English name of Karnataka Music. I agree with you that I might not have presented the matter as clearly as it should be. I was making an observation based is RS that was already made by many users in the past. The issue is more than ‘father’ vs ‘founder’. It is about preventing an effort to rewrite the history by misusing wikipedia. I will do more research into what has expired in wikipedia and provide details. Though I have not done detailed editing such as Naadapriya (who has been banned as a result framed-ban by the group which is changing the history), Sarvagna etc., I have followed the articles for years.

Hi Drmies! Just a friendly note to not always rush into calling an edit "vandalism" and using rollback, as you did with this edit. In this case, the editor added a {{ hangon}} tag, and accidentially removed the SD tag. This happens all the time with new editors. The best and easiest thing to do is just re-add the SD tag, with possibly adding {{ uw-speedy1}} to the editor's user page. Calling it "vandalism" is slightly beyond WP:AGF. More importantly, by using rollback without looking at the history, you removed a number of content-adding edits that could not be considered vandalism.

Another SEC team got absolutely dominated today as U Conn came out of the Big-East to roll Auburn. And Tennessee got crushed by Virginia Tech out of the ACC. We know you guys can't match up against the WAC after Alabama got throttled last year by Utah. Maybe next year the schedulers should try arrange more MAC matchups for the SEC so you guys can have a chance on the field with better parity vis a vis your opponents? It seems like the only teams you guys can beat are the ones that don't have coaches. Notre Dame certainly did a lot better against U Conn, at least taking them to overtime. Maybe Auburn should see if they can trade up from Spurrier to Charlie Weis?

Hey Drmies,
I note your redirect of the recently created Malik R. Dahlan article, with the comment that "subject is not notable". Whilst I appreciate fully your desire to ensure that only noteworthy articles remain present on Wikipedia, I feel that you should reconsider your judgment in this instance. Malik R. Dahlan is one of the most prominent young legal and policy experts in the Middle East and the Arab World, and the Director of the Qatar Law Forum, an international legal event of great significance in the legal sphere.
I suggest cordially that, rather than redirecting the article arbitrarily, you raise the issue in the article's Talk page first.
Please feel free to message me should you wish to discuss this matter in greater depth.

But the the encyclopedia is shaped by people's POV and what is notable to them sometimes I end up feeling extremely uncertain of what people deem notable as the response is often a paradox and they'll vote to keep lists of Pokemon characters and Youtube amateurs yet vote to delete an Estonian painter and member of the national art academy.

I missed the previous PROD. That was my error. However, I don't think you needed to be sarcastic in your edit summaries, which you did several times. To be perfectly blunt, I'm sick of doing research to source articles that the author was simply too lazy to bother sourcing himself. I'm tired of doing legwork because someone else wants to just throw articles up, without even bothering to format them correctly, let alone source them properly. If it is something obviously notable, that's one thing. But when the claim to notability isn't even evident in the article, which is wasn't when I prodded it, and there are no sources at all, I don't feel bad about seeing it go away.

Since you happen to be online (maybe).... The article Cashis discography was nominated for AfD. The result, since it contained only one notable album, was to redirect to the artists page ( Cashis). On the artists page, User:JBSupreme and I removed unsourced and non-notable items. I also removed a section about feuds with other rappers after I took it to the RSN and it was agreed that there was BLP issues involved. I also removed non-notable items from Template:Cashis and explained that the templates are an aid in navigation, not advertising. However User:174.3.59.151 has been undoing them, simply restoring everything that has been removed by policies or by AfD consensus. I'm not the only one reverting the vandalism (although it's starting to look more like an edit war and I don't want to get caught up in that). Last exchange on his talk page was when I told him the discography needed sourced and he stated they don't need sources. Perhaps you can talk some sense into him.
