Hi Jackmcbarn, you reverted an NPOV tag on a page that I created Talk:PH Media Group and I was wondering if you might help by providing some advice about how the page could be changed to remove the NPOV tag. I'm struggling to identify where I might be able to amend it as I was very careful to merely state facts and back them up with citations when I created the page. Help would be really appreciated. Thanks. Jenniferlever ( talk) 17:13, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
Hello Jack, you can call me 74. Happened to notice your conversation with Bbb23 about Pratham's article. User_talk:Bbb23#New_R._S._J._Public_School_Senior_Secondary They are a beginner, and we are trying to extract cites from them, but all the template-noise on their talkpage has made them temporarily immune to the clue-transference procedure. Can you hold off on AfD temporarily please, while we try to get Notability ascertained? Thanks. 74.192.84.101 ( talk) 19:05, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
All that collection of jerks do is threaten me. I tried to come and suggest improvements and I get them calling me names, claiming I misrepresent sources (I DO NOT) and threatening me if I "misrepresent sources" again meaning if I speak and I'm not agreeing with them. This whole place is fucking corrupt.

Hi, Can you please provide the reason why you found my edits as not constructive. Nithyananda's reputation in my country is well known as controversial godmen ( I provided references). The wikipedia statement of him being a "mystic" is misleading and not true as it doesn't show any references?

Jackmcbarn,
The occupation of a person carrying out assassinations of 2 heads of states must be a terrorist if you are talking about maintaining a neutral point of view. 32 countries agree with me

Hi Jackmcbarn, I have left you a message on the talk page here Talk:PH Media Group and was wondering if you might kindly take a look to see if the page warrants removal of the NPOV tag. I have discussed the matter with another user and they have helped me to make several changes to improve the tone of the article. The other user believes it now displays a neutral point of view but said I may be best running it past you also to gain consensus. Your opinion would be much appreciated.

Hello, can you explain why you enabled AFT here? Do you plan to review feedback on it as encouraged by the guidelines, or do you expect someone else to do so for you?

Thank you for the information, and for your concern. Honestly, I just don't want people to care. It's my user page, and I don't like bots going over work on a personal page. In other words, it's the principle that's the point: If I wanted that removed, I would have done it myself. No one cares. Sorry, I'm not trying to be harsh. I just really get tired of bots going around changing things. And my user page isn't some huge popular page. I'm not a mega editor with 50 bots and 10 new talk page items a day. Have a nice day.

A tag has been placed on Wikipedia:Know Your Roots, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from an implausible typo, or other unlikely search term.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you believe that there is a reason to keep the redirect, you can request that
administrators wait a while before deleting it. To do this, affix the template {{
hangon}}
to the page and state your intention on the article's
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Jack,
I know the discussion has only been going for a couple days, but not a single person is in favor. Sounds like a clear case of WP:SNOW to me. I am of the thought that no one should revert because someone might disagree, but only because they personally disagree, but if you do think deprecated templates should be deleted, you need to say so on the talk page.

Hi Jack, It made more sense to continue here, rather than to keep adding help alerts on my talk page.
Re Azomite, will you please be specific re what you mean by this? "It seems to be covering only the viewpoint that the minerals are good, which by the way it reads, doesn't seem to be something everyone agrees on. Per WP:NPOV, other viewpoints should be covered." Jackmcbarn (talk) 20:40, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
By "the" minerals, do you mean minerals in-general or the minerals as this page's topic. I read and re-read the paragraph and it relays several opinions on the positives of mineral nourishment in our soil systems. There is actually zero science that suggests otherwise. So curious what you mean by it not being something everyone agrees on? That idea is pretty universal. If you have a specific idea for an edit, please share it. Thank you. ( Victoriasays ( talk) 00:15, 30 December 2013 (UTC))
Wait, wait - I reread your notes and made an edit. When you are able, please let me know if this did the trick. Thanks in advance. ( Victoriasays ( talk) 00:21, 30 December 2013 (UTC))
The paragraph in-question doesn't mention the page name at all. Kindly explain what about it sounds like an ad to you. An "ad" for what? ( Victoriasays ( talk) 23:33, 2 January 2014 (UTC))

Dear Jackmcbarn, I'm working on the issues you said were the reasons for the rejection of my submission; I'll submit another attempt in a week or so. I'm the designer & builder & one-time shipmaster of Llinase & for a decade or so, we operated it as a passenger carrying charter vessel. We sold it three weeks before the 9/11 terrorist attacks so I can assure you we are not making this entry attempt in any promotional or advertising capacity, although I have written a book about my adventures with the boat. The book is out of print, though I'd like to include a reference (a link?) to it if that is acceptable. My son tells me that I should put the boat on Wikipedia, he says that it is unique & it would be a darned shame if I don't do it before I snuff it. (I'm 78). I'm quite happy try to meet any requirements you see fit to impose. So to see what I'm on about, if you're able, I appreciate it if you could look at the very short film clips which can be accessed under Llinase & catamaran on Google. Regards, Llinase ( talk) 11:07, 31 December 2013 (UTC) Les G Thompson, user name; Llinase.

With all due respect, what on earth made you think that was appropriate? The content on there was harming no one and had nothing to do with you; it was not within an article and it disrupted Wikipedia in no way whatsoever. It is impossible to imagine that anyone would find it offensive. I see that you are not an admin. I suggest that if you have a problem, you take it to them instead of blanking my page.

Don't know why you would be so rude as to edit my contribution to information on William Henry Harrison since my ancestor Henry Hurst was Harrison's aid de camp, a Major in the Grand Army of the Republic and fought in the War of 1812 (Battle of Tippecanoe - 1811) and rode along side Harrison at his inauguration. In my honest opinion the Hurst Family has contributed more to American history than any other colonial family, has been instrumental in every war America has been engaged in and done more to save American Lives than any other family in American history. Samuel Need Hurst published the Virginia Law Reports. Henry Hurst was a prominent lawyer, soldier and politician. Allan Forrest Hurst was a POW in the Civil War. Felden Hurst was a Lt. Col. US Calvary for the Federal Forces in Tennessee during the Civil War. I could go on but suffice it to say, the Jaws of Life was designed by the inventor of the Hurst Shifter; and my own mother was an anthropologist and historian and for my part I was involved in the Middle East Peace process in 2005 and 2006 to establish a UN Regional Human Rights/Terrorism Court in East Jerusalem and establish mass manufacturing of the electronic automobile in the Middle East, so next time you decide to edit my contributions consult me first!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.246.14.57 ( talk) 01:16, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, thank you for your kind attention to my submissions, in your comment I see a list should be removed. Which list is that? I noticed I have the directors and advisors listed in the body of the paragraph with their field of expertise, and beneath it in a column fashion as directors in Florida. is this the list that should be erased? If so, I believe they should be included in some fashion, since without their help, there wouldn't be a guild.
I realize the list could also be the executives of the company. Again, I am not sure, because these are the people who lend their time pro bono, lawyers, designers, coordinators and other personnel. I am just not sure. Any help or greater clarity forthcoming would be helpful in the extreme. And would allow me to edit accordingly without destroying the very essence of what the organization is and does. Thank you again. And thanks to all editors who may see this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.8.13.250 ( talk) 01:54, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jack,
[Quote] C++/CX (component extensions) is a language extension for C++ compilers from Microsoft that [...cut...] brings a set of syntax and library abstractions that interface with the COM-based WinRT programming model in a way that is natural to native C++ programmers. [/Quote]
I program C++ for 25+ years. I don't think "CX" is natural for native C++ programmers. ATL or WRT is the natural way to interact with COM for C++ programmer. CX is very confusing language extension (considering already enormous C++11 complexity) to interact with COM.
I'm not alone, see here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/boost-devel-archive/TJU0MumVo_E or here, comments from dissatisfied C++ programmers: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2011/10/20/10228473.aspx
I believe C++/CX is used for the same old "MS Windows domination through pollution" goal... reminds me Java and J++ story, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_J%2B%2B
If you think your C++/CX opinion is more valuable - it's OK. (very wide grin) Sorry for the trouble.

Jackmcbarn,
The occupation of a person carrying out assassinations of 2 heads of states must be a terrorist if you are talking about maintaining a neutral point of view. 32 countries agree with me

Hi Jackmcbarn, I have left you a message on the talk page here Talk:PH Media Group and was wondering if you might kindly take a look to see if the page warrants removal of the NPOV tag. I have discussed the matter with another user and they have helped me to make several changes to improve the tone of the article. The other user believes it now displays a neutral point of view but said I may be best running it past you also to gain consensus. Your opinion would be much appreciated. Jenniferlever ( talk) 10:21, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I have removed PROD tag from this article after adding source as per notability guidelines. I'll work on this article later. Please look into this, if you still want this article to be deleted then take it to Afd. Regards. Hitro talk 11:02, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
Hello, can you explain why you enabled AFT here? Do you plan to review feedback on it as encouraged by the guidelines, or do you expect someone else to do so for you? I reviewed the 150 most obvious unreviewed feedback items and they included one-year old egregious vandalism... I'm happy to help with AFT but I'm not your servant, please do your own laundry. -- Nemo 10:24, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for the information, and for your concern. Honestly, I just don't want people to care. It's my user page, and I don't like bots going over work on a personal page. In other words, it's the principle that's the point: If I wanted that removed, I would have done it myself. No one cares. Sorry, I'm not trying to be harsh. I just really get tired of bots going around changing things. And my user page isn't some huge popular page. I'm not a mega editor with 50 bots and 10 new talk page items a day. Have a nice day.

A tag has been placed on Wikipedia:Know Your Roots, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from an implausible typo, or other unlikely search term.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you believe that there is a reason to keep the redirect, you can request that
administrators wait a while before deleting it. To do this, affix the template {{
hangon}}
to the page and state your intention on the article's
talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Can you please close the WP:NPA discussion on Village? The consensus against it is clear and it is also clear the proposer is finally declining from continuing it. I would do it, but it would only look like I'm edit-warring. -- ThomasO1989 ( talk) 22:49, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
Regarding this, I didn't miss them; the result of the discussion for these was "merge", not "delete". They should not have been on the "Ready for deletion" list in the first place. -- RL0919 ( talk) 01:30, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Jack,
I know the discussion has only been going for a couple days, but not a single person is in favor. Sounds like a clear case of WP:SNOW to me. I am of the thought that no one should revert because someone might disagree, but only because they personally disagree, but if you do think deprecated templates should be deleted, you need to say so on the talk page. Ego White Tray ( talk) 15:31, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Jack, It made more sense to continue here, rather than to keep adding help alerts on my talk page.
Re Azomite, will you please be specific re what you mean by this? "It seems to be covering only the viewpoint that the minerals are good, which by the way it reads, doesn't seem to be something everyone agrees on. Per WP:NPOV, other viewpoints should be covered." Jackmcbarn (talk) 20:40, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
By "the" minerals, do you mean minerals in-general or the minerals as this page's topic. I read and re-read the paragraph and it relays several opinions on the positives of mineral nourishment in our soil systems. There is actually zero science that suggests otherwise. So curious what you mean by it not being something everyone agrees on? That idea is pretty universal. If you have a specific idea for an edit, please share it. Thank you. ( Victoriasays ( talk) 00:15, 30 December 2013 (UTC))
Wait, wait - I reread your notes and made an edit. When you are able, please let me know if this did the trick. Thanks in advance. ( Victoriasays ( talk) 00:21, 30 December 2013 (UTC))
The paragraph in-question doesn't mention the page name at all. Kindly explain what about it sounds like an ad to you. An "ad" for what? ( Victoriasays ( talk) 23:33, 2 January 2014 (UTC))

Dear Jackmcbarn, I'm working on the issues you said were the reasons for the rejection of my submission; I'll submit another attempt in a week or so. I'm the designer & builder & one-time shipmaster of Llinase & for a decade or so, we operated it as a passenger carrying charter vessel. We sold it three weeks before the 9/11 terrorist attacks so I can assure you we are not making this entry attempt in any promotional or advertising capacity, although I have written a book about my adventures with the boat. The book is out of print, though I'd like to include a reference (a link?) to it if that is acceptable. My son tells me that I should put the boat on Wikipedia, he says that it is unique & it would be a darned shame if I don't do it before I snuff it. (I'm 78). I'm quite happy try to meet any requirements you see fit to impose. So to see what I'm on about, if you're able, I appreciate it if you could look at the very short film clips which can be accessed under Llinase & catamaran on Google. Regards, Llinase ( talk) 11:07, 31 December 2013 (UTC) Les G Thompson, user name; Llinase.
For living people, in the future you can use the BLPPROD rather than just PROD. With the BLPPROD sources other than IMDB need to be provided. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:09, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
With all due respect, what on earth made you think that was appropriate? The content on there was harming no one and had nothing to do with you; it was not within an article and it disrupted Wikipedia in no way whatsoever. It is impossible to imagine that anyone would find it offensive. I see that you are not an admin. I suggest that if you have a problem, you take it to them instead of blanking my page.

Don't know why you would be so rude as to edit my contribution to information on William Henry Harrison since my ancestor Henry Hurst was Harrison's aid de camp, a Major in the Grand Army of the Republic and fought in the War of 1812 (Battle of Tippecanoe - 1811) and rode along side Harrison at his inauguration. In my honest opinion the Hurst Family has contributed more to American history than any other colonial family, has been instrumental in every war America has been engaged in and done more to save American Lives than any other family in American history. Samuel Need Hurst published the Virginia Law Reports. Henry Hurst was a prominent lawyer, soldier and politician. Allan Forrest Hurst was a POW in the Civil War. Felden Hurst was a Lt. Col. US Calvary for the Federal Forces in Tennessee during the Civil War. I could go on but suffice it to say, the Jaws of Life was designed by the inventor of the Hurst Shifter; and my own mother was an anthropologist and historian and for my part I was involved in the Middle East Peace process in 2005 and 2006 to establish a UN Regional Human Rights/Terrorism Court in East Jerusalem and establish mass manufacturing of the electronic automobile in the Middle East, so next time you decide to edit my contributions consult me first!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.246.14.57 ( talk) 01:16, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, thank you for your kind attention to my submissions, in your comment I see a list should be removed. Which list is that? I noticed I have the directors and advisors listed in the body of the paragraph with their field of expertise, and beneath it in a column fashion as directors in Florida. is this the list that should be erased? If so, I believe they should be included in some fashion, since without their help, there wouldn't be a guild.
I realize the list could also be the executives of the company. Again, I am not sure, because these are the people who lend their time pro bono, lawyers, designers, coordinators and other personnel. I am just not sure. Any help or greater clarity forthcoming would be helpful in the extreme. And would allow me to edit accordingly without destroying the very essence of what the organization is and does. Thank you again. And thanks to all editors who may see this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.8.13.250 ( talk) 01:54, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
The superintendent of the little rock school district is actually dr dexter Suggs. They hired him this year so I would like to thank you for having wrong information on the school district.

Hi! Can you delete Mamiwata Film page? I just tried to get used to Wikipedia before I write the actual article, but I realised now that I cannot go back since I save the page. Is it possible to save a Wikipedia page as draft? How can I do this? I deleted all the content since it was just some copy paste from the website. I didn't want to publish that, just to learn how to use all these things. I am really lost here :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mythicalmermaid ( talk • contribs) 18:38, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jack,
[Quote] C++/CX (component extensions) is a language extension for C++ compilers from Microsoft that [...cut...] brings a set of syntax and library abstractions that interface with the COM-based WinRT programming model in a way that is natural to native C++ programmers. [/Quote]
I program C++ for 25+ years. I don't think "CX" is natural for native C++ programmers. ATL or WRT is the natural way to interact with COM for C++ programmer. CX is very confusing language extension (considering already enormous C++11 complexity) to interact with COM.
I'm not alone, see here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/boost-devel-archive/TJU0MumVo_E or here, comments from dissatisfied C++ programmers: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2011/10/20/10228473.aspx
I believe C++/CX is used for the same old "MS Windows domination through pollution" goal... reminds me Java and J++ story, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_J%2B%2B
If you think your C++/CX opinion is more valuable - it's OK. (very wide grin) Sorry for the trouble.

Hello,
The article about Sean Rush an interior designer and fine artist was declined on January 16 because it said more references are needed. Does that mean we need to submit magazine articles that Sean Rush was in to be able to have his bio and info on Wikipedia? We did put the magazines under references do you need to see the actual article?
