For reviewing my DYK hook. Normally, it is good practice not to refactor one's post, but to use strikeout and correction. I try to follow that, except when I see a typo seconds after posting. I didn't do that in this case, eg Taxas Texas, as I assume that once approved, someone will copy and past paste the hook itself. I do know some are quite picky about refactoring after the fact, so I'm erring on the side of caution and mentioning it to you here. Thanks for your attention to detail, I had to read it twice to see it. That would have been embarrassing had it not been caught.--

Thanks for reviewing this :-) The explicit "should have seen the signal was set for the wrong line" comes from Reed's book - he points out that the track signals were located 500 feet ahead and says he "failed to observe" them, "probably because he was going much too fast to notice them." The contemporary railroading publications I cited all assigned blame to both the engineer and the signalman. As the first sentence of the paragraph states, the Board of Commissioners blamed the engineer more. The press emphasized his speed. While the jury blamed both. The engineer was a relatively recent hire who had originally come from St. Louis as a strikebreaker, and he vanished - I could not find sources saying he had reappeared, though Reed's book gives his POV. The signalman pleaded the Fifth but had told friends he felt ill and climbed down from the tower. So all the sources in fact say the train was going at an excessive speed and the engineer was partly to blame for that reason. (If I were injecting POV I would infer that he was "railroaded" in absentia and the signalman had simply left the switch set as it had been for the previous train while he snuck down to relieve himself or have a smoke.) If you look at the references you'll see what I mean - Reed's book (no Google Books view) says "should have seen the signal" but the rest are all saying "excessive speed" and the newspaper is calling for his head. So that's the way it is in the sources I'm afraid. I see someone else has now accepted it for DYK; if you still think the last couple of sentences should be tweaked, have a look at the sources and go ahead; I can't see how, they are all judgmental.

In attendance will be myself, Howie Fung and Fabrice Florin. All perspectives, opinions and comments are welcome :).
I appreciate that not everyone can make it to that session - it's in work hours for most of North and South America, for example - so if you're interested in having another session at a more America-friendly time of day, leave me a message on my talkpage.

Hi Qh. Thanks for your concern. I've transferred the talk here - I hope you don't mind.
So, you wrote:
Well firstly, thanks for the feedback - always welcomed, and I'm more than happy to discuss my edit, which I have now reconsidered and toned down - though only slightly.
Let me try to justify my edit, and start by confessing to some pet hates.
Given that this is English wikipedia, I feel that editors have responsibilities as well as rights.
So we wp:AGF and hope they address our concerns. When they don't - esp. if they continue their faults AND refuse to discuss them - then AGF is pointless IMHO. When they don't talk, I try to obtain some reaction from them, as normal means have with them proven fruitless.
Yes, they may find it a little offensive, but if they respond to say so, that's fine & I'd apologise to them & be friendly.
So often I find that non-native English-speakers seem to refuse to read or respond to normal WP warnings - as this user has repeatedly done.
However, thank you for expressing your concern, and I have as I say toned down my comments a little.
May I also add that your concerns were well and politely worded. I'm happy to receive any further feedback. Regards, -- Trafford09 ( talk) 14:23, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
Noted - thanks. -- Trafford09 ( talk) 15:11, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
Well, various editors have gone to some lengths, to engage with Flix11 & endeavour to persuade him to collaborate. Our collective efforts have resulted in 4 Edit summaries (ESs) out of now 29 edits since your courteous talk to him. Does it mean he read his talk page? Is 4/29 good enough? Has he engaged with us - written a response to show he can collaborate, has changed his ways & is henceforth fully prepared to co-operate?
I would say not. I admire your AGF, but I cannot yet match it. I need to see proper evidence.
You posit that he "created an article in perfect English". He wrote 1 article, and this is how he was content to leave it, seemingly. Well, I don't follow the sentences "At the drawing, the winner of semi-final 2 (who will play winner from quarter-final 2 and 1) have a chance to host if they clinch the final spot. They are Cerezo Osaka, Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors (QF1), Al-Ittihad, and FC Seoul (QF2).".
If Flix11 can read, understand and be bothered to ask for better treatment himself, then I'll be amenable to considerable back-tracking. Until then, I'm afraid I see no room for further movement on my own part. I respect your efforts & different opinion, though, and hope that you or others have more headway with him than one has seen to date.
Oh - how about we keep this discussion on 1 page - I will keep yours watchlisted. Regards, -- Trafford09 ( talk) 01:53, 26 December 2011 (UTC)

Quasihuman I did it because of the inappropriate use of language and because on Lupin's Anti Vandal Tool the word he used 'suck' was flagged up and to me it was inappropriately placed there. I hope this clarifies the situation.

Thnx 4 your concern and input. I completely forgot how to move the page. So if you can help me out here by putting the article into it's real name please and thanks. If you have seen before I referenced the name so there is it's reason of change, clearly. & I got rid of that tag because I didn't want the page turn into nothing when it had something.

apparently is not a reliable source and Katatonia.com the band's official website is probably the only place for katatonia info. Angxst ( talk) 23:41, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
Yea I looked at the Primordial website before you responded & since there's two different names Im leaving it as it be but if anything maybe both names should be merged? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Angxst ( talk • contribs) 00:27, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
Hi Quasihuman! Firstly, thanks for helping out in CSD areas. I just wanted to inform you that I removed the speedy deletion tag you placed on Rolf Jardemark- because: The article makes a claim to importance: Has appeared on national TV, and played with notable bands. Please feel free to AfD. If you have any questions or other message, please contact me. Thanks Kingpin 13 ( talk) 13:00, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
Hello Quasihuman, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Llasha Urko, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. ( talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:36, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for your chasing down sources for the L & H auditors list. It was good work and added respectability to the article list to stave off deletion. A pat on the back to you.

I see you have contributed significantly to the article Eureka effect. I would like to alert you to a further article, Aha! effect, which seems to treat the same subject (both articles point to the same German article, in fact), and also itself states "(also known as Insight)". I, for one, find it difficult to see the difference between the subjects. Should all three articles be merged? -- Florian Blaschke ( talk) 10:04, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your help and advice last time and I am sorry you are now semi-retired. Just in case you see this, how do I persuade Timothy Titus that his repeated reinsertion of the Peter Mullen blog reference is malicious and damaging to my reputation and unrepresentative of my life's work?

Hey Quasihuman/Archives/Archive 1! I'm just dropping you a message because you've commented on (or expressed an interest in) the Article Feedback Tool in the past. If you don't have any interest in it any more, ignore the rest of this message :).
If you do still have an interest or an opinion, good or bad, we're holding an office hours session tomorrow at 19:00 GMT/UTC in #wikimedia-office to discuss completely changing the system. In attendance will be myself, Howie Fung and Fabrice Florin. All perspectives, opinions and comments are welcome :).
I appreciate that not everyone can make it to that session - it's in work hours for most of North and South America, for example - so if you're interested in having another session at a more America-friendly time of day, leave me a message on my talkpage. I hope to see you there :). Regards, Okeyes (WMF) ( talk) 14:33, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi Qh. Thanks for your concern. I've transferred the talk here - I hope you don't mind.
So, you wrote:
Well firstly, thanks for the feedback - always welcomed, and I'm more than happy to discuss my edit, which I have now reconsidered and toned down - though only slightly.
Let me try to justify my edit, and start by confessing to some pet hates.
Given that this is English wikipedia, I feel that editors have responsibilities as well as rights.
So we wp:AGF and hope they address our concerns. When they don't - esp. if they continue their faults AND refuse to discuss them - then AGF is pointless IMHO. When they don't talk, I try to obtain some reaction from them, as normal means have with them proven fruitless.
Yes, they may find it a little offensive, but if they respond to say so, that's fine & I'd apologise to them & be friendly.
So often I find that non-native English-speakers seem to refuse to read or respond to normal WP warnings - as this user has repeatedly done.
However, thank you for expressing your concern, and I have as I say toned down my comments a little.
May I also add that your concerns were well and politely worded. I'm happy to receive any further feedback. Regards, -- Trafford09 ( talk) 14:23, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
Noted - thanks. -- Trafford09 ( talk) 15:11, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
Well, various editors have gone to some lengths, to engage with Flix11 & endeavour to persuade him to collaborate. Our collective efforts have resulted in 4 Edit summaries (ESs) out of now 29 edits since your courteous talk to him. Does it mean he read his talk page? Is 4/29 good enough? Has he engaged with us - written a response to show he can collaborate, has changed his ways & is henceforth fully prepared to co-operate?
I would say not. I admire your AGF, but I cannot yet match it. I need to see proper evidence.
You posit that he "created an article in perfect English". He wrote 1 article, and this is how he was content to leave it, seemingly. Well, I don't follow the sentences "At the drawing, the winner of semi-final 2 (who will play winner from quarter-final 2 and 1) have a chance to host if they clinch the final spot. They are Cerezo Osaka, Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors (QF1), Al-Ittihad, and FC Seoul (QF2).".
If Flix11 can read, understand and be bothered to ask for better treatment himself, then I'll be amenable to considerable back-tracking. Until then, I'm afraid I see no room for further movement on my own part. I respect your efforts & different opinion, though, and hope that you or others have more headway with him than one has seen to date.
Oh - how about we keep this discussion on 1 page - I will keep yours watchlisted. Regards, -- Trafford09 ( talk) 01:53, 26 December 2011 (UTC)

I received your note. The reason for the deletion was its lack of notability. It was tagged a long time ago for that reason: "The notability of this article's subject is in question. If notability cannot be established, it may be listed for deletion or removed. Tagged since August 2010." Do you have any new sources to change this other editor's judgment? Speedy deletion would remove the article. Thanks. รัก-ไทย ( talk) 17:22, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Savannah River, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Goose Creek ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
