And don't forget, the edit summary is your friend. :) – Oleg Alexandrov ( talk) 07:30, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi. Just a few notes. First, it is good to use a edit summary when contributing, it helps us understand what you are doing. Second, one writes
==External links==
instead of
===External Links===
(so lowercase L and == instead of ===). Cheers, Oleg Alexandrov ( talk) 22:40, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Also, one should not insert newlines within paragraphs, they don't look good in the text, as you can see here. Oleg Alexandrov ( talk) 22:43, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I've reverted your addition to this article twice now; as far as I can tell, your text has nothing to do with the Monty Hall problem. Mightn't it be more in place in the Three Prisoners Problem article?
While I'm at it, please don't flag non-trivial edits like that one minor; that predicate is reserved for link fixes, typo and grammar corrections etc. Also, please fill in an edit summary next time. I see you've been asked this before—it really helps your fellow contributors to see at a glance what your intention is. Phaunt 22:55, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi Kvihill. So, just a note, any disagreements over any Wikipedia article are better discussed on that article's discussion page (talk page). The discussion page is accessible via a tab on the top of any article (next to 'history' and 'edit'). I put the Daniel Pearl article on my watchlist, and will try to keep an eye on it. You can write on my talk page ( User talk:Oleg Alexandrov) if there's anything you need help with. E-mail contact is also fine, via Special:Emailuser/Oleg_Alexandrov. All the best, Oleg Alexandrov ( talk) 02:56, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
hi oleg- thank you for your helpful suggestions. can you tell us how long to wait to post an edit to an article after posting to discussion? do we wait for your approval (as watch) or how does it work? kind regards, Kvihill 21:22, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
Your recent edits on Mediation_(statistics) appear to be at least a partial copyright violation and are poorly formatted. EvergreenFir ( talk) 22:37, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
These edits were given by Prof. Judea Pearl and he gives copyright for these postings. How does he officially authorize? Please specifically point out where formatting improvements are needed and we will correct. Thank you. Kvihill ( talk) 22:54, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
Pearl's causality blog link ( http://www.mii.ucla.edu/causality/?page_id=2) now has the statement, "The material posted on this blog can be quoted or re-posted anywhere with no copyright restrictions." Please stet the last contribution. Kvihill ( talk) 17:57, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
"I am re-posting the section and I hope you have no objections to it -- a copyright release is posted on the source website. I hope that we can bring this post-remove cycle to some convergence. I have not seen the formatting objections that you have. This new section is an innocent attempt to inform readers of one of the most important advances in mediation analysis in the past decade. It is hard to understand if/why you want Wikipedia to suppress it." Judea Pearl Kvihill ( talk) 18:17, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
Hi, User:EvergreenFir. I will forward this message to Prof. Pearl and ask him about making the necessary change. I will let you know of any action. Thank you. 75.83.19.205 ( talk) 23:05, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

File:Ruth-pearl-white-house-hanukkah-dec2007.jpeg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate
copyright tag, it may be deleted some time after the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{
PD-self}}
(to release all rights), {{
self|cc-by-sa-4.0}}
(to require that you be credited), or any tag
here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by MifterBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: Once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. -- MifterBot ( Talk • Contribs • Owner) 17:45, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on File:Ruth-pearl-white-house-hanukkah-dec2007.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement of https://thejewishnews.com/2021/08/05/ruth-pearl-mother-of-murdered-journalist-daniel-pearl-dies-at-85/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Whpq ( talk) 19:49, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
