Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited James Maxwell Wallace, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Prince Leopold ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello PBS, Happy New Year. I've mentioned you in an ArbCom case request submission. While you are not a party, your comments would be appreciated. LittleBen ( talk) 12:37, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
See my reply Phillip. I am suspicious of your sudden interest in this dispute. You must realise it will have no bearing on the outcome of the consus of the title change. I am entitled to state my opinion on your attiutde on this article if I choose to do so. I have not received an adequate response to your resistance to the the operational commanders being added, other than, I presume, it was me that added it. I have only edited this article several times over the past few years, but you - and you alone - have contested every single change to the content. Why? It is quite acceptable to complain that these unreasonable complaints slow down its progression. Editors like me like to get on with things. Under the circumstances I'm justified in saying what I said - which is an observation, not an attack. Dapi89 ( talk) 10:25, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I'm on my phone and for some reason it won't let me edit AN3. I was actually saying the request should've been at RFPP - not 3RR or EW - because it was a page protection request. And I know that you know there's no right version, but your request did happen to coincide with the aeticle being in your preferred state ;-) As I say, I didn't even see the AN3 request before I protected so that's moot. FWIW, having now read the "discussion" you were in the right, so for once an admin might've actually protected a page in The Right Version! Black Kite ( talk) 13:59, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi. The page number is absolutely necessary when linking to a source that contains the entire document in a single file. However, It is not generally needed when linking to a transcribed article at Wikisource, since the articles are generally quite short. I think that it's a judgement call. The WS article has the page number for the original article together with a link to the correct page of the scanned source, so there is no loss of provenance. I'm interested in your thought on this, and I will preserve the page numbers if you still think they add value in this context. - Arch dude ( talk) 00:40, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
As a separate issue, the DNBIE template is broken. It appends "(DNB00)" to the wstitle, but the DNBIE articles at WS (if any) use a different suffix. Therefore, you should not use the "wstitle=" to reference articles in the Epitiome. continue to use the "title=" instead. In the mean time I will go do some research on the status of the Epitome at WS. - Arch dude ( talk) 00:59, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
If you wish to add the DNBIE to WS, then great, but the template is still broken. The pattern is:
so {{ DNBIE}} should append (DNBIE). This assumes you intend to implement a seperate article for each epitome entry. I haven't thought about that project so I have no opinion. The problem in in {{ Cite DNBIE}}.- Arch dude ( talk) 01:34, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

I have modified "general" to "commander" and supplied a reference. I have added a reference for "chopping wood". Many of Le Marchant's military writings were published anonymously, as is mentioned in the text, purely because they became official army regulations, but it is known that he wrote them. All new arms, of necessity, are first produced as prototypes. Le Marchant's sabre was merely lengthened by an inch at the behest of the generals overseeing the re-arming the cavalry, but it remained his design - it was adopted as the 1796 pattern light cavalry sword, of which I own two examples. Urselius ( talk) 19:51, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
I think the user might have a point -- editing as an IP and then creating an account and using that to continue an edit war isn't sockpuppetry. We encourage people to create accounts; we do not say "create accounts unless you're in the middle of an argument". Perhaps an edit warring 24-hr block would be more appropriate? -- jpgordon ::==( o ) 19:30, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

The move discussion at Talk:Theater District, New York was closed without alerting editors at the relevant Wikiprojects to join in. It has long been the consensus at WP:THEATRE and WP:MUSICALS to spell the word "theatre", in part because theatre professionals prefer this spelling throughout the English-speaking world, and because this spelling is not wrong anywhere, while "theater" is wrong in many places,such as the UK. BTW, I am an American from New York City. Note that nearly all of the Broadway theatres are called "X Theatre". I have re-opened the discussion on the talk page to see if we can get a wider consensus on this issue. Thanks! -- Ssilvers ( talk) 04:18, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
Pbs, A user just mentioned in a talk page discussion that the original title of a current article was 1971 Bangladesh genocide, which he had recently reverted back to the 2005 name. As I was looking through history, you seemed to pop up at the point the name changed and I further noticed you went through several versions. I don't know about how you feel about this now or even if you remember that article, but we're having a convo there about this name. Since you're behind this diff [2] and several others afterwards where the name came up as an issue, I was wondering if you could give us some insight. I don't mean to canvas here -- even if you just want to comment is fine. My intention is merely to get the thinking from an earlier point of time. Crtew ( talk) 17:22, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

I'm not going to engage in an edit war over this, but I had already replied directly to DS's response to my original post. Your insertion of your subsequent response between those two comments, as noted, interrupts the flow and sense. Elbowing aside someone else's comment in that fashion, so that your later comment in effect gains priority over the first chronological response to anyone reading down the page comes across as somewhat arrogant and rude. You may not have been responding directly to me, but we are all discussing common ground there, and I happened to be the first to respond. Can anyone else – myself included even – now insert their own comment in between yours & DS's, and hence above yours in turn, if they happen to think their response to DS is more important that both mine and yours and if they simply say, "But I'm responding to DS, not to PBS"? That's a recipe for totally chaotic and unreadable discussion, and talk page guidelines and custom are pretty clear on it. I'm also assuming you'd rather someone didn't bump down your response in a similar fashion. N-HH talk/ edits 14:39, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

I got intrigued by this while stub-sorting yesterday - not least by the lack of any really reliable-looking sources! Wondered at first if it was a hoax. Found a couple of refs, and today the City Surveyor's report where it's called "Millennium Inclinator". What would you think about moving it to that title? Could have just done so, but it seemed better to check first as you created it so recently (and there's obviously been some sort of a tiff about it already, from deleted edits). Still seems strange not to have found much in the way of reliable sources - I'd have thought there'd be something in wheelchair guides to London, etc, but not yet found. Nor anything about the grand reopening - perhaps it was done rather quietly out of embarrassment at the waste of money? Pam D 11:04, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Please see User talk:TomStar81#Your ideas for what to do about Rotterdam Blitz. This move review has been sitting around for a long time, and the original discussion was in January. You are the only experienced editor who showed up in the original move discussion supporting Rotterdam Blitz. Would you be against my idea for closing the move review? I know that these articles could be organized differently, but as of now I'd support any reasonable idea for getting the move review closed. My own preference would be just to do the move, and leave any reorganizing of the bombing topic for the future. Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 12:52, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Hey PBS, thanks for autoarchiving the talk at Gypsy horse, but can you tweak the parameters so that it archives every 60 days or so and doesn't necessarily archive at any particular length (though I like the preserving of 2-3 threads)? I ask because this article is prone to get a bunch of massive editing, followed by a long lull, so I don't want it too fast to archive, and I don't want long discussions accidentally split. Is that doable? Thanks. Montanabw (talk) 05:28, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

You are absolutely right the commands did not spring from nowhere; however, your addition was in error, specifically in MacArthur being in command of ABDA. That was under British command (Wavell) with ANZAC hurriedly put together on the other side of Mac's dissolving Philippine command to organize defense of Australia/New Zealand and the line of supply. The origin of SWPA & POA lies in the Arcadia Conference decision that the Pacific, excluding India and the IO, was a U.S. responsibility and U.S. JCS was working the division:
Creation of SWPA and POA
While the President and the Prime Minister were reaching agreement on the worldwide division of strategic responsibility, the JCS were considering the subdivision of the Pacific theater, which they assumed would become a responsibility of the United States. (p. 168 Matloff, United States Army In World War II—The War Department: Strategic Planning For Coalition Warfare 1941-1942)
So, essentially those three commands, including the South East Asia Command (which U.S. writers tend to ignore and even officially call the China Burma India Theater) stretching from Africa to California did come into being at the stroke of a decision just as did the dissolution of ABDA/ANZAC—but not out of nowhere. This is the part you probably want to work with in clearing up that origin. Palmeira ( talk) 14:55, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
PS: All those WW II theater command pieces need lots of work for accuracy and I'd include harmonizing the apparently almost completely separate categories of Allied commands and U.S. commands such as we see in that SEA/CBI thing. Palmeira ( talk) 15:05, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

I looked at the hits line without looking at the content. In there was the line that said there were no exact matches. So the query was entered correctly and I did miss the important line buried in the results. So if you want to take it to Wikipedia:Move review over this, that would seem to be a reasonable option. However, you would also need to mention this result for the old name. If you do this, I would change my position from support to a comment due to this error which was my plan before doing the query. Don't know what effect that would have. Sorry. Vegaswikian ( talk) 20:58, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello PBS. You posted at ANI for an admin to close this discussion. If I had to do so, it would probably be 'No Consensus', with some suggestion of further negotiations. It looks to me that you could remove some of the objections to 'Madrid' if you would consider the suggestion by User:Jonesey95, to replace the sentence containing Madrid:
WOULD BECOME:
Though there isn't agreement that Madrid needs to be replaced, and there isn't consensus for any new single name, there is some discomfort with the current wording, and the above change would reduce (in my opinion) the motivation for future challenges.

Copied from [[Talk:User:Eastlaw]]
I have used a nifty tool
"CatScan" to create a list of articles that contain a {{
CathEncy}}
template and {{
Catholic}}
template. I have then imported that list (about 300 articles) and written an AWB script to populate an empty {{
Catholic}} template from the {{
CathEncy}}
template and then delete the {{
CathEncy}}
template if it is not used as an inline citation.
Your user name came up several times in the first few articles that I examined, some from which I deleted the {{ Catholic}} template because I could not see any text currently in the Wikipedia article that could be seen as plagiarised text from the Catholic Encyclopaedia without the attribution template.
I have just restarted going thorough my list in AWB (after a short R&R break) and the first article I looked at is Ambrose Shea. Looking at the text of the Wikipedia article I could not see any text that was copied from the Catholic Encyclopaedia.
Using another useful tool "wikiblame", I can see that you added the template to the article (20:52, 19 January 2009). I then looked further into the article's history:
In the minute that you added the {{ Catholic}} to Ambrose Shea you also added the same template to 6 other articles, and in the minute before and after you added the same template to another 7 and 12 articles.
I also notice that later in the month of January 2009 you did something similar to articles with the {{ EB1911}}.
What were the criteria that you used for adding these templates and did they include checking to see if any text had been copied, or closely paraphrased, from a PD source before adding the template?

It was very considerate of you to leave me that message, and those links. I do use short citations, particularly on longer or denser articled that make multiple references to the same work. But I do have a serious deficit when it comes to templates, or indeed anything that looks like a mathematical or statistical formula; I slow, then freeze over, and cease to function. It's an ancient, pathological panic; an old trick... and I'm getting to be one of Wikipedia's elder dogs, set in his ways, with only a few active neurones to spare for new things.

Good news. I've finally come across in print a translation of the Latin inscription on the Cross. I've given it exactly as it appears in the 1885 publication, even though it does not seem to be precise (where is that first date of destruction in the original and isn't it astonishing that the writer should make a mistake in the date of the inscription itself?). I assume the book was commissioned to accompany completion of the reconstruction, as it is dedicated to the City Magistrates. Kim Traynor | Talk 21:40, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

You said that there were several theorists but what you're describing is more like a group or place rather than a person. Here is this sentence: Some leading theorists of strategic air warfare, during this period were the Italian Giulio Douhet, the Trenchard school in Great Britain, and General Billy Mitchell in the United States. Every rational person could see it doesn't make any sense whatsoever and you're still not giving me explicit explanation why you wanted to keep the Trenchard school. The keyword here is "theorists" and the definition of a theorists are "persons concerned with the theoretical aspects of a subject; theoreticians." You said that there were several theorists that proposed the same idea then why can you name them instead of naming something like a place of group. I need some source to this information. So far, all i see is Sir Huge Trenchard, not the Trechard School. That's not grammatically sense and doesn't fit with the sentence structure. XXzoonamiXX ( talk) 16:52, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
Hi! I noticed you have performed assessment of the Gilbert Gerard of Crewood article, rating it B-class for the WP:MILHIST project. While individual editors are more than welcome to perform such assessments, the Military History project bars major contributors to an article to identify the articles they developed significantly as B-class alone. The project has set up an assessment page for the purpose at WP:MHAR. For that reason, I have provisionally removed B-class checklist entries at the article talk page and I would like to direct you to the WP:MHAR to seek a B-class assessment there. Reviewers there are quite responsive and are likely to process a request within a day or two. Regards.-- Tomobe03 ( talk) 12:29, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

The term "sixteenth century" is actually used by historians even in cultures where it wasn't: it's agreed and generally presupposed that we mean CE. Not surprisingly, there are many, probably hundreds, of articles that use the term in their title and many more that refer to different centuries. There are certainly plenty on 16th century MPs. "Tudor" is the name of a royal dynasty and its power was confined to England, Wales, parts of Ireland and the Pale of Calais. Not Scotland. Not France. Not anywhere else. So the idea that it's somehow more "recognisable" than the name of the century is plainly ethnocentric. It also presupposes that the royalty define their century, which wasn't true even then, and is now clearly an ideological preference not shared by the vast majority of English speakers. It is far less common for anyone to use even the word "Stuart" in the same way and "Hanoverian" is pretty well always reserved just for the dynasty. No-one would refer to a French jurist of the same period as a "Valois judge". The Tudor's have acquired this unique privilege mainly because of the way that a particular way of doing history claimed a hegemonic place in English academia - a long time ago. That and a bit of help from Horrible Histories. Sjwells53 ( talk) 16:56, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

I noticed that you flagged the ancestry tree on Charles II for lack of sources. Perhaps there is less need for specific citation for this sort of tree as: A) It is unlikely that there would be any single source, or even a reasonably small number of sources, that would be available to cover such a tree, and B) As all the persons in the tree have links to their own article, the reader could easily verify any particular relationship they found interesting by refering to such a linked page.
Even a useful biography of the scion of such a tree is unlikely to mention all the ancestors to 4 generations - but the presence of such trees is useful to the reader. Urselius ( talk) 14:26, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Thats very unfortunate. Ironically we were both working from the same source. You would have thought that the system could warn you when proposing to make an edit that someone else was already editing. Anyway I'll keep out until the dust has settled. Plucas58 ( talk) 17:52, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
On 5 November 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Esquire of the Body, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Henry VIII of England always had other men dress and undress him, and they thought this was an honour? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Esquire of the Body. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Thanks for adding the article, and do feel free to add your new Cheshire-related items in future. As I wrote in my edit summary, I reverted the edit because you added the article at the wrong end of the list (oldest items not newest items) and also removed the newest article not the oldest. I restored the Tarvin in the English Civil War article in the correct position in my next edit. Cheers, Espresso Addict ( talk) 09:58, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Do you really want me to put those two sources after every single line? I was still working on the article, but hey, you have it.-- 86.6.187.246 ( talk) 13:18, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
I know this article very well, I was the one who sat there and copied from the leafy pages those 'quotes' and loosely paraphrased the majority of the text (when tens of irrelevant pages weren't being skipped), maybe sometimes too closely, and I was inspired by your comments about how close to have another go through and reduce further the fatter than necessary wording, even though copyright isn't an issue. At the time of writing it, from two single sources, inline citations weren't my thing and certainly didn't appear necessary. I could say "make your mind up" either I'm paraphrasing too closely or it needs further citing from the source but both cannot be true at the same time, no? If your asking me to go fetch Varley's book back out the stacks and go through and find page numbers, ask nicer.-- 86.6.187.246 ( talk) 13:53, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the invitation and for restarting the interest. I don't know how much you know of the history. Some years ago, almost the entire content of EB1911 was dumped uncritically into Wikipedia, complete with OCR errors, and then some heroes started to sort out the conflict with existing articles that had more contemporary information. One challenge of note was that EB articles were sometimes much more comprehensive than WP and it was a challenge to decide what was still relevant after 100 years (obscure mythical figures yes, technology not so much). We did the same with Nuttall but that was much easier to complete.
I also joined Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/1911 verification. Pretty soon I was the only one; I started on the B's because others were making random attacks on the A's, and gave up 65% of the way through. The idea was to walk through the WP articles in the EB index, where there was a mix of modern and old text, deciding which ones still had EB text, and cleaning it up where necessary. My working notes are at User:DavidBrooks/sandbox.
Work on the citation templates has slowly continued, and the partial Wikisource has come on line since then, and I honestly haven't kept up to date. So I may stave off the occasional boredom and pick it up again. It may even be necessary to re-examine those 782 "B" articles that I already reviewed.

Hi. The page number is absolutely necessary when linking to a source that contains the entire document in a single file. However, It is not generally needed when linking to a transcribed article at Wikisource, since the articles are generally quite short. I think that it's a judgement call. The WS article has the page number for the original article together with a link to the correct page of the scanned source, so there is no loss of provenance. I'm interested in your thought on this, and I will preserve the page numbers if you still think they add value in this context. - Arch dude ( talk) 00:40, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
As a separate issue, the DNBIE template is broken. It appends "(DNB00)" to the wstitle, but the DNBIE articles at WS (if any) use a different suffix. Therefore, you should not use the "wstitle=" to reference articles in the Epitiome. continue to use the "title=" instead. In the mean time I will go do some research on the status of the Epitome at WS. - Arch dude ( talk) 00:59, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
If you wish to add the DNBIE to WS, then great, but the template is still broken. The pattern is:
so {{ DNBIE}} should append (DNBIE). This assumes you intend to implement a seperate article for each epitome entry. I haven't thought about that project so I have no opinion. The problem in in {{ Cite DNBIE}}.- Arch dude ( talk) 01:34, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

I have modified "general" to "commander" and supplied a reference. I have added a reference for "chopping wood". Many of Le Marchant's military writings were published anonymously, as is mentioned in the text, purely because they became official army regulations, but it is known that he wrote them. All new arms, of necessity, are first produced as prototypes. Le Marchant's sabre was merely lengthened by an inch at the behest of the generals overseeing the re-arming the cavalry, but it remained his design - it was adopted as the 1796 pattern light cavalry sword, of which I own two examples.

The move discussion at Talk:Theater District, New York was closed without alerting editors at the relevant Wikiprojects to join in. It has long been the consensus at WP:THEATRE and WP:MUSICALS to spell the word "theatre", in part because theatre professionals prefer this spelling throughout the English-speaking world, and because this spelling is not wrong anywhere, while "theater" is wrong in many places,such as the UK. BTW, I am an American from New York City. Note that nearly all of the Broadway theatres are called "X Theatre".

I'm not going to engage in an edit war over this, but I had already replied directly to DS's response to my original post. Your insertion of your subsequent response between those two comments, as noted, interrupts the flow and sense. Elbowing aside someone else's comment in that fashion, so that your later comment in effect gains priority over the first chronological response to anyone reading down the page comes across as somewhat arrogant and rude. You may not have been responding directly to me, but we are all discussing common ground there, and I happened to be the first to respond. Can anyone else – myself included even – now insert their own comment in between yours & DS's, and hence above yours in turn, if they happen to think their response to DS is more important that both mine and yours and if they simply say, "But I'm responding to DS, not to PBS"? That's a recipe for totally chaotic and unreadable discussion, and talk page guidelines and custom are pretty clear on it. I'm also assuming you'd rather someone didn't bump down your response in a similar fashion. N-HH talk/ edits 14:39, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

I got intrigued by this while stub-sorting yesterday - not least by the lack of any really reliable-looking sources! Wondered at first if it was a hoax. Found a couple of refs, and today the City Surveyor's report where it's called "Millennium Inclinator". What would you think about moving it to that title? Could have just done so, but it seemed better to check first as you created it so recently (and there's obviously been some sort of a tiff about it already, from deleted edits). Still seems strange not to have found much in the way of reliable sources - I'd have thought there'd be something in wheelchair guides to London, etc, but not yet found. Nor anything about the grand reopening - perhaps it was done rather quietly out of embarrassment at the waste of money? Pam D 11:04, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Please see User talk:TomStar81#Your ideas for what to do about Rotterdam Blitz. This move review has been sitting around for a long time, and the original discussion was in January. You are the only experienced editor who showed up in the original move discussion supporting Rotterdam Blitz. Would you be against my idea for closing the move review? I know that these articles could be organized differently, but as of now I'd support any reasonable idea for getting the move review closed. My own preference would be just to do the move, and leave any reorganizing of the bombing topic for the future. Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 12:52, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Hey PBS, thanks for autoarchiving the talk at Gypsy horse, but can you tweak the parameters so that it archives every 60 days or so and doesn't necessarily archive at any particular length (though I like the preserving of 2-3 threads)? I ask because this article is prone to get a bunch of massive editing, followed by a long lull, so I don't want it too fast to archive, and I don't want long discussions accidentally split. Is that doable? Thanks. Montanabw (talk) 05:28, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

You are absolutely right the commands did not spring from nowhere; however, your addition was in error, specifically in MacArthur being in command of ABDA. That was under British command (Wavell) with ANZAC hurriedly put together on the other side of Mac's dissolving Philippine command to organize defense of Australia/New Zealand and the line of supply. The origin of SWPA & POA lies in the Arcadia Conference decision that the Pacific, excluding India and the IO, was a U.S. responsibility and U.S. JCS was working the division:
Creation of SWPA and POA
While the President and the Prime Minister were reaching agreement on the worldwide division of strategic responsibility, the JCS were considering the subdivision of the Pacific theater, which they assumed would become a responsibility of the United States. (p. 168 Matloff, United States Army In World War II—The War Department: Strategic Planning For Coalition Warfare 1941-1942)
So, essentially those three commands, including the South East Asia Command (which U.S. writers tend to ignore and even officially call the China Burma India Theater) stretching from Africa to California did come into being at the stroke of a decision just as did the dissolution of ABDA/ANZAC—but not out of nowhere. This is the part you probably want to work with in clearing up that origin. Palmeira ( talk) 14:55, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
PS: All those WW II theater command pieces need lots of work for accuracy and I'd include harmonizing the apparently almost completely separate categories of Allied commands and U.S. commands such as we see in that SEA/CBI thing. Palmeira ( talk) 15:05, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

I looked at the hits line without looking at the content. In there was the line that said there were no exact matches. So the query was entered correctly and I did miss the important line buried in the results. So if you want to take it to Wikipedia:Move review over this, that would seem to be a reasonable option. However, you would also need to mention this result for the old name. If you do this, I would change my position from support to a comment due to this error which was my plan before doing the query. Don't know what effect that would have. Sorry. Vegaswikian ( talk) 20:58, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello PBS. You posted at ANI for an admin to close this discussion. If I had to do so, it would probably be 'No Consensus', with some suggestion of further negotiations. It looks to me that you could remove some of the objections to 'Madrid' if you would consider the suggestion by User:Jonesey95, to replace the sentence containing Madrid:
WOULD BECOME:
Though there isn't agreement that Madrid needs to be replaced, and there isn't consensus for any new single name, there is some discomfort with the current wording, and the above change would reduce (in my opinion) the motivation for future challenges. Let me know if you would object to the above change. Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 16:55, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Copied from [[Talk:User:Eastlaw]]
I have used a nifty tool
"CatScan" to create a list of articles that contain a {{
CathEncy}}
template and {{
Catholic}}
template. I have then imported that list (about 300 articles) and written an AWB script to populate an empty {{
Catholic}} template from the {{
CathEncy}}
template and then delete the {{
CathEncy}}
template if it is not used as an inline citation.
Your user name came up several times in the first few articles that I examined, some from which I deleted the {{ Catholic}} template because I could not see any text currently in the Wikipedia article that could be seen as plagiarised text from the Catholic Encyclopaedia without the attribution template.
I have just restarted going thorough my list in AWB (after a short R&R break) and the first article I looked at is Ambrose Shea. Looking at the text of the Wikipedia article I could not see any text that was copied from the Catholic Encyclopaedia.
Using another useful tool "wikiblame", I can see that you added the template to the article (20:52, 19 January 2009). I then looked further into the article's history:
In the minute that you added the {{ Catholic}} to Ambrose Shea you also added the same template to 6 other articles, and in the minute before and after you added the same template to another 7 and 12 articles.
I also notice that later in the month of January 2009 you did something similar to articles with the {{ EB1911}}.
What were the criteria that you used for adding these templates and did they include checking to see if any text had been copied, or closely paraphrased, from a PD source before adding the template?

It was very considerate of you to leave me that message, and those links. I do use short citations, particularly on longer or denser articled that make multiple references to the same work. But I do have a serious deficit when it comes to templates, or indeed anything that looks like a mathematical or statistical formula; I slow, then freeze over, and cease to function.

Good news. I've finally come across in print a translation of the Latin inscription on the Cross. I've given it exactly as it appears in the 1885 publication, even though it does not seem to be precise (where is that first date of destruction in the original and isn't it astonishing that the writer should make a mistake in the date of the inscription itself?). I assume the book was commissioned to accompany completion of the reconstruction, as it is dedicated to the City Magistrates. Kim Traynor | Talk 21:40, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited William Style, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Langley ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You said that there were several theorists but what you're describing is more like a group or place rather than a person. Here is this sentence: Some leading theorists of strategic air warfare, during this period were the Italian Giulio Douhet, the Trenchard school in Great Britain, and General Billy Mitchell in the United States. Every rational person could see it doesn't make any sense whatsoever and you're still not giving me explicit explanation why you wanted to keep the Trenchard school. The keyword here is "theorists" and the definition of a theorists are "persons concerned with the theoretical aspects of a subject; theoreticians." You said that there were several theorists that proposed the same idea then why can you name them instead of naming something like a place of group. I need some source to this information. So far, all i see is Sir Huge Trenchard, not the Trechard School. That's not grammatically sense and doesn't fit with the sentence structure. XXzoonamiXX ( talk) 16:52, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
Hi! I noticed you have performed assessment of the Gilbert Gerard of Crewood article, rating it B-class for the WP:MILHIST project. While individual editors are more than welcome to perform such assessments, the Military History project bars major contributors to an article to identify the articles they developed significantly as B-class alone. The project has set up an assessment page for the purpose at WP:MHAR. For that reason, I have provisionally removed B-class checklist entries at the article talk page and I would like to direct you to the WP:MHAR to seek a B-class assessment there. Reviewers there are quite responsive and are likely to process a request within a day or two. Regards.-- Tomobe03 ( talk) 12:29, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

The term "sixteenth century" is actually used by historians even in cultures where it wasn't: it's agreed and generally presupposed that we mean CE. Not surprisingly, there are many, probably hundreds, of articles that use the term in their title and many more that refer to different centuries. There are certainly plenty on 16th century MPs. "Tudor" is the name of a royal dynasty and its power was confined to England, Wales, parts of Ireland and the Pale of Calais. Not Scotland. Not France. Not anywhere else. So the idea that it's somehow more "recognisable" than the name of the century is plainly ethnocentric. It also presupposes that the royalty define their century, which wasn't true even then, and is now clearly an ideological preference not shared by the vast majority of English speakers. It is far less common for anyone to use even the word "Stuart" in the same way and "Hanoverian" is pretty well always reserved just for the dynasty. No-one would refer to a French jurist of the same period as a "Valois judge". The Tudor's have acquired this unique privilege mainly because of the way that a particular way of doing history claimed a hegemonic place in English academia - a long time ago. That and a bit of help from Horrible Histories. Sjwells53 ( talk) 16:56, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

I noticed that you flagged the ancestry tree on Charles II for lack of sources. Perhaps there is less need for specific citation for this sort of tree as: A) It is unlikely that there would be any single source, or even a reasonably small number of sources, that would be available to cover such a tree, and B) As all the persons in the tree have links to their own article, the reader could easily verify any particular relationship they found interesting by refering to such a linked page.
Even a useful biography of the scion of such a tree is unlikely to mention all the ancestors to 4 generations - but the presence of such trees is useful to the reader. Urselius ( talk) 14:26, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
I learned a great deal here. Not just about our policy on this, but on those specific set of images. After a lengthy look into the full copyright issue, I have concluded that you are fully correct and that an apology is deserved. Sorry for my lack of understanding of this issue.

On 5 November 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Esquire of the Body, which you created or substantially expanded.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Esquire of the Body. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

Thanks for adding the article, and do feel free to add your new Cheshire-related items in future.

Do you really want me to put those two sources after every single line? I was still working on the article, but hey, you have it.-- 86.6.187.246 ( talk) 13:18, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
I know this article very well, I was the one who sat there and copied from the leafy pages those 'quotes' and loosely paraphrased the majority of the text (when tens of irrelevant pages weren't being skipped), maybe sometimes too closely, and I was inspired by your comments about how close to have another go through and reduce further the fatter than necessary wording, even though copyright isn't an issue. At the time of writing it, from two single sources, inline citations weren't my thing and certainly didn't appear necessary. I could say "make your mind up" either I'm paraphrasing too closely or it needs further citing from the source but both cannot be true at the same time, no? If your asking me to go fetch Varley's book back out the stacks and go through and find page numbers, ask nicer.-- 86.6.187.246 ( talk) 13:53, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the invitation and for restarting the interest. I don't know how much you know of the history. Some years ago, almost the entire content of EB1911 was dumped uncritically into Wikipedia, complete with OCR errors, and then some heroes started to sort out the conflict with existing articles that had more contemporary information. One challenge of note was that EB articles were sometimes much more comprehensive than WP and it was a challenge to decide what was still relevant after 100 years (obscure mythical figures yes, technology not so much). We did the same with Nuttall but that was much easier to complete.
I also joined Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/1911 verification. Pretty soon I was the only one; I started on the B's because others were making random attacks on the A's, and gave up 65% of the way through. The idea was to walk through the WP articles in the EB index, where there was a mix of modern and old text, deciding which ones still had EB text, and cleaning it up where necessary. My working notes are at User:DavidBrooks/sandbox.
Work on the citation templates has slowly continued, and the partial Wikisource has come on line since then, and I honestly haven't kept up to date. So I may stave off the occasional boredom and pick it up again. It may even be necessary to re-examine those 782 "B" articles that I already reviewed.
