For all your great (and bold) edits to articles based on mythological subjects. Loved your work on Cloak of invisibility which is what prompted this Barnstar. At the start of the year the article stated 'Cloaks of invisibility are relatively rare in folklore', great to see how a little research can prove that wrong. Thanks again.

Kiyoweap, you may want to review the criteria for WP:GA. In short, your comment "I'm not going to fix it and fix it ad nauseum till teacher finally approves" is why you need to let the other editors work on the article. Fixing it until the GA reviewer approves is PRECISELY what has to happen (if you think the GA reviewer is unfair, they will eventually fail the article, you can let it cool for a bit and then renominate). I reverted your one set of edits one time only because you made it worse, but as a GA reviewer, I cannot make extensive edits myself as then I become "involved " with the content. You need to let the other, more experienced editors work on the article; they are both veterans of the GAN process and once they have it cleaned up, if you have some very specific factual points you think need to be raised, AND have the reliable sources to back them up (and by this I mean with links to books available online or highly reliable web sites so I can independently verify this material myself) then I will look at those issues and make a decision. But for the "wikignoming" work of citation cleanup and wording/style fixes, I will suggest that you take second chair on those issues for now. Montanabw (talk) 22:16, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
Also, Drmies, your remark that "my behavior in that review is atrocious" comes entirely from the standpoint of nominators who feel entitled to a painless GA pass. But this "wish" is not an overriding concern over Wikipedia's goal to create a decent article. My actions were perfectly within bounds of WP:BRD, and you cannot seriously argue that outside of the review context, my BRD was unduly disruptive.

Hello Kiyoweap, I was just looking over the Kelpie article and realized that Gary Varner was still being cited prominently as a "folklorist". I went ahead and pulled it again for the reasons I've mentioned on the talk page. I'm also surprised there isn't more of a section on the possibly Germanic origins or, more widely, Indo-European possibilities on the article. You're welcome to assist in fleshing those out sometime. Meanwhile I'm still working on that Odin rewrite... :bloodofox: ( talk) 00:51, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Hello there! My name is Erica, and I am a community liaison for the visual editor team at the Wikimedia Foundation. I'm contacting you because we need feedback from editors who can read and type in Japanese. Our main question is, does typing in this language feel natural in the visual editor? (Language engineer David Chan needs to know.) So, would you do me a favor, click here and try to type something?

Hey Kiyoweap, I don't have a lot of time to edit Wikipedia these days. Most issues I've found can be solved by simply rewriting an article in line with GA standards, particularly when it comes to folklore. The Nuckelavee article is one of many hack-jobs we've got on the site at moment (albeit at least it isn't a cryptozoology promo piece), no doubt because there were no folklorists involved with the development of Wikipedia's early folklore articles. A shame, really. However, if you start to prepare to a rewrite at any point, let me know and I'll help out when I can. :bloodofox: ( talk) 10:13, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Tatzelwurm shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

I noticed that you've received it before although it's renewable every 12 months. It is possible to avoid receiving these by posting a message at the top of the page saying you already are aware of them ({{ Ds/aware}}).
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in pseudoscience and fringe science. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

May Peace and Blessings be upon You... Forgive me if my response (from your message you left on my talk page) is unbecoming or intrusive, or perhaps not in it's appropriate place. However, I begin by humbly saying "thank you" for your input; it will be duly noted. I am responding about the subjective statement about the many, countless scholars that spoke upon Dhul al-Qarnayn being Alexander the Great, and the informed should ideally take their account as being utmost accurate. Mind you, the great intellects of history, from the pre-socratic period until after Galileo, all proclaimed that Earth was the center vice the Sun of the universe (or planetary order). And that is to also argue the Earth being flat or round, again from countless archaic scholars of before. Most, if not all, people had taken them as being factual or otherwise correct. Today, we know this is contrary to our actual findings from modern scientists, or by itself, astrophysics. May I suggest that it is purely fallacious to say that some subject be considered fact because of the words from scholars. Shall the appealing to authority of scholars, who collectively agree with each other, on context...be taken as a grain of salt...and their views be treated as subjective (opinions or short-finding of their teachings)? Which is also not considered.. there are four madhhaab (schools of thought) in mainstream Sunni Islam, and they don't necessarily agree on Dhul al-Qarnayn be or the interpretation of the Hadith concerning it. Rest assured...that is the stance I took upon that article. If I violated the rules of Wikipedia which you pointed.. then I may have approached the whole situation wrongly. At least u spotted my mistake as folly, and not personnel of Wikipedia themselves. As being arbitrary to Dhul al-Qarnayn true identity...I was intended to inform the readers about what is, or not, explicitly written, as per Qur'an. Islam in the western world is viewed negatively in the minds of the people...and Muslims, such as myself, are producing terrible examples. Again, forgive me if this was inappropriate... and may Peace and Blessings be upon You. RekonDog ( talk) 06:22, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

I meant to thank you for your efforts on the Lisa Nakazono article. You did find some real sources, which I though might lead to a marginal keep, but the article has gone now, unless someone wants to work to try to make a NPOV and properly sourced article. I am now looking at a couple of other pages: Kento Masuda and Hiroko Tsuji (musician), both egregiously promotional. The Hiroko Tsuji article is also odd, because of the separate article for a different Hiroko Tsuji, which should mean a disambiguation page. This article is very thin, and notability doubtful. The Masuda article is stuffed with things like bogus "nobility" awards, which are well-documented paid for schemes, and picking a random reference (no. 45) I traced it to a paid-for scheme. There is a note on the talk page to the effect that the wp:ja page was recently deleted; but the page has been (MT-)rendered into something like 20 languages. Anyway, I thought I would ask your opinion: should I just start an AfD, or do I need to plough through each page simply removing each bit with an improper source.

The Invisible Barnstar | ||
For all your great (and bold) edits to articles based on mythological subjects. Loved your work on Cloak of invisibility which is what prompted this Barnstar. At the start of the year the article stated 'Cloaks of invisibility are relatively rare in folklore', great to see how a little research can prove that wrong. Thanks again. FruitMonkey ( talk) 10:21, 22 July 2014 (UTC) |
Kiyoweap, you may want to review the criteria for WP:GA. In short, your comment "I'm not going to fix it and fix it ad nauseum till teacher finally approves" is why you need to let the other editors work on the article. Fixing it until the GA reviewer approves is PRECISELY what has to happen (if you think the GA reviewer is unfair, they will eventually fail the article, you can let it cool for a bit and then renominate). I reverted your one set of edits one time only because you made it worse, but as a GA reviewer, I cannot make extensive edits myself as then I become "involved " with the content. You need to let the other, more experienced editors work on the article; they are both veterans of the GAN process and once they have it cleaned up, if you have some very specific factual points you think need to be raised, AND have the reliable sources to back them up (and by this I mean with links to books available online or highly reliable web sites so I can independently verify this material myself) then I will look at those issues and make a decision. But for the "wikignoming" work of citation cleanup and wording/style fixes, I will suggest that you take second chair on those issues for now. Montanabw (talk) 22:16, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
Also, Drmies, your remark that "my behavior in that review is atrocious" comes entirely from the standpoint of nominators who feel entitled to a painless GA pass. But this "wish" is not an overriding concern over Wikipedia's goal to create a decent article. My actions were perfectly within bounds of WP:BRD, and you cannot seriously argue that outside of the review context, my BRD was unduly disruptive.

Hello Kiyoweap, I was just looking over the Kelpie article and realized that Gary Varner was still being cited prominently as a "folklorist". I went ahead and pulled it again for the reasons I've mentioned on the talk page. I'm also surprised there isn't more of a section on the possibly Germanic origins or, more widely, Indo-European possibilities on the article. You're welcome to assist in fleshing those out sometime.

Hey Kiyoweap, I don't have a lot of time to edit Wikipedia these days. Most issues I've found can be solved by simply rewriting an article in line with GA standards, particularly when it comes to folklore. The Nuckelavee article is one of many hack-jobs we've got on the site at moment (albeit at least it isn't a cryptozoology promo piece), no doubt because there were no folklorists involved with the development of Wikipedia's early folklore articles. A shame, really. However, if you start to prepare to a rewrite at any point, let me know and I'll help out when I can. :bloodofox: ( talk) 10:13, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Tatzelwurm shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

I noticed that you've received it before although it's renewable every 12 months. It is possible to avoid receiving these by posting a message at the top of the page saying you already are aware of them ({{ Ds/aware}}).
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in pseudoscience and fringe science. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect.

May Peace and Blessings be upon You... Forgive me if my response (from your message you left on my talk page) is unbecoming or intrusive, or perhaps not in it's appropriate place. However, I begin by humbly saying "thank you" for your input; it will be duly noted. I am responding about the subjective statement about the many, countless scholars that spoke upon Dhul al-Qarnayn being Alexander the Great, and the informed should ideally take their account as being utmost accurate. Mind you, the great intellects of history, from the pre-socratic period until after Galileo, all proclaimed that Earth was the center vice the Sun of the universe (or planetary order). And that is to also argue the Earth being flat or round, again from countless archaic scholars of before. Most, if not all, people had taken them as being factual or otherwise correct. Today, we know this is contrary to our actual findings from modern scientists, or by itself, astrophysics. May I suggest that it is purely fallacious to say that some subject be considered fact because of the words from scholars. Shall the appealing to authority of scholars, who collectively agree with each other, on context...be taken as a grain of salt...and their views be treated as subjective (opinions or short-finding of their teachings)? Which is also not considered.. there are four madhhaab (schools of thought) in mainstream Sunni Islam, and they don't necessarily agree on Dhul al-Qarnayn be or the interpretation of the Hadith concerning it. Rest assured...that is the stance I took upon that article. If I violated the rules of Wikipedia which you pointed.. then I may have approached the whole situation wrongly. At least u spotted my mistake as folly, and not personnel of Wikipedia themselves. As being arbitrary to Dhul al-Qarnayn true identity...I was intended to inform the readers about what is, or not, explicitly written, as per Qur'an. Islam in the western world is viewed negatively in the minds of the people...and Muslims, such as myself, are producing terrible examples. Again, forgive me if this was inappropriate... and may Peace and Blessings be upon You. RekonDog ( talk) 06:22, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

I meant to thank you for your efforts on the Lisa Nakazono article. You did find some real sources, which I though might lead to a marginal keep, but the article has gone now, unless someone wants to work to try to make a NPOV and properly sourced article. I am now looking at a couple of other pages: Kento Masuda and Hiroko Tsuji (musician), both egregiously promotional. The Hiroko Tsuji article is also odd, because of the separate article for a different Hiroko Tsuji, which should mean a disambiguation page. This article is very thin, and notability doubtful. The Masuda article is stuffed with things like bogus "nobility" awards, which are well-documented paid for schemes, and picking a random reference (no. 45) I traced it to a paid-for scheme. There is a note on the talk page to the effect that the wp:ja page was recently deleted; but the page has been (MT-)rendered into something like 20 languages. Anyway, I thought I would ask your opinion: should I just start an AfD, or do I need to plough through each page simply removing each bit with an improper source.
