Thanks for uploading File:Pep_Guardiola_as_Adam.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Rockfang ( talk) 04:10, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Hi, I wonder if you'd be willing to reconsider your "qualified support" for the Iran riots- I'm working on bringing it up to scratch and, as far as I can see, the information is up to date. It still needs some formatting and copyediting, but I'm on that. All the best, HJMitchell You rang? 23:42, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Hi PC, and happy New Year! I'm trying to keep to my New Year resolution, and start doing some A-Class reviews. I took a look at copper(I) chloride, despite my obvious bias, and I think that although it's not bad, it could do with some attention. I was wondering if you could take a look at the article and my comments, and give us your comments & improvements? Once a couple of us have made some improvements, I'll ask the wider project for comments. Cheers, Walkerma ( talk) 07:19, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the replying over at the ITN candidates page. I'd love to see the stats for last year when you are done with them. Are you looking at just ITN, or the Main Page as a whole? I followed a DYK recently, and was shocked the other way at how few views it got. See here. I suppose only being there for 6 hours doesn't help. I would say that this is an incentive to get articles featured, but I seem to recall that the queue for that is very long now. Have you had any thoughts on how best to balance promoting exposure of content on the Main Page, versus driving traffic to other Wikipedia portals and pages where things can be "featured" instead?

Thanks for creating Fromelles (Pheasant Wood) Military Cemetery. I have a longer draft article that I've been working on offline. Would it be OK if I merged it in with what you've done so far? I could paste it as a draft in userspace if you want to see how the merger would work. I had intended to get this done in time for a possible ITN entry, but I've been working mainly from the PDF documents available from the CWGC website, and there was so much there I hadn't even got round to integrating the numerous news reports on this yet. I'm going to do a bit more work to bring it to a more finished state, and then post a draft in my userspace. Carcharoth ( talk) 00:00, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Physchim62: You accuse me of promulgating pseudoscience. You claim here I support the crazy notion that all science went down the tubes with the 1983-adoption of a time-of-flight definition for the metre. Also see here, where you use the term FUBAR to describe my position. Although I'd have thought myself to be the best authority upon what I think, and although, for example, I have made a very clear statement of my views during the SoL debacle, you refuse to accept my denial of all such thoughts, even though (naturally) there aren't any diffs and there is no other evidence whatsoever to support these notions about my present or past views.
It is perfectly clear that my statements concerning the SoL border on the trivial, and definitely don't classify as pseudoscience. It is untrue that the 1983 BIPM change of definition of the metre disturbs me in any way. My concern was merely that the implications of this change were confusingly presented in the introduction to the SoL article.
I believe that what has happened here is very simple: during the flurry of back and forth dementia among participants on the SoL Talk page, you have assembled a collage of things said by many participants and mistakenly attached it to myself. I respectfully request that you re-examine this matter and correct your misimpression of me. Brews ohare ( talk) 21:15, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

i´ve noticed you seem to be the only person to persist with the current name for the icesave issue. i´ve also noticed that you display a fair amount of bias in the talk page eg:
look at the figure released by the Central Bank of Iceland itself: the following are taken from its Economic Indicators, comparing January 2003 and September 2008
* Bank lending to the domestic sector: 698.3bn ISK → 4827.4bn ISK (+1226.5%) * Krónur money supply (M3): 393.6bn → 1230.3bn ISK (+312.6%) * Labour force (est.): 154,600 → 148,600 (−3.9%) * Wage index: 228.7 → 350.4 (+153.2%) * Consumer price index: 224.7 → 315.5 (+140.4%)
And what about the declared value of goods and services produced in Iceland? +26.8% from end-2002 to end-2007 in krónur terms...
what is your personal stake in the title of this article? did you lose money to icesave? the current title of the article clearly does not reflect the article´s subject. taking the article to the admin´s board with your side of the story was a masterstroke to get your way but this is not in the spirit of a community programme. i´m sorry the world doesn´t see everything your way. -- Lotsofmagnets ( talk) 17:10, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

You have now twice removed a section from Talk:2010 Polish Air Force Tu-154 crash on your own opinion that it is irrelevant.

I am not arguing for the inclusion of information into the article, but given other people's comments on conspiracy theories, well here we have a conspiracy theory (as whacked out as it is) from a notable person in a reliable source.

Some IPs used by this individual have been blocked (i.e. [2], [3], ecc.) and he has been told over a dozen times to beat it. Because of this person the main article 2010 Polish Air Force Tu-154 crash had to be semi-protected and as he continues his disruptive and childish behavior (i.e. [4], [5], ecc.)

Are polonides really stable? There seems to be a trend of decreasing stability with the chalcogenides. Oxides are very stable(oxidation potential -1.23), sulfides are sort of stable (they decompose with strong heat) (oxidation potential -0.14), selenides (?), tellurides are very strong reducing agents (oxidation potential +1.14), and polonides should be almost unable to form. The same thing with the halides. Fluorine→fluoride (+2.87), chlorine→chloride (+1.36), bromine-bromide (+1.06), iodine-iodide (+0.54), astatine-astatide (even lower).

Physchim,
In your recent edit here: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=367587067&oldid=367586691
You removed a sentence with the claim that the ITIC report did not say that. However it was the very first sentence of the referenced article: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/world/israel-points-finger-at-turkish-pm/story-e6frg6so-1225878143687
If you think this information should not be included you should explain why clearly in your edit and on the discussion page.
I recommend that you undo your edit and then redo it with a clearer explanation.
Or explain on the talk page the logic behind your claim that the ITIC did not make the statements as per the source.

Hello. I noticed that you are doing multiple reverts (restoring image, restoring link to SS Exodus, etc.) on Gaza flotilla raid article. Please note that doing these reverts, some of which are in contradiction with extensive earlier discussions and agreements on the talk page, is a clear violation of the WP:1RR restriction on the article. Many users, including myself, were recently blocked for 24 hours because of similar behaviour. -- 386-DX ( talk) 13:00, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi Physchim,
Please be more careful about editing content that has been discussed in the talk pages and subject to earlier edit wars.
Here are 4 reverts or re-insertions you did in a 24-hour period on a article with 1RR protection:
1) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367422427
2) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367587067
3) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367595252
4) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367597991
You may also want to tone it down in the talk section as per WP:Forum and avoid posts like this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Talk:Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=367609343&oldid=367609193
It is understandable that this article is bringing out a lot of frustration for people, but try to remember that wikipedia is trying to be a neutral encyclopedia that does not support any side. If we all start calling the other side names it gets difficult for people to positively contribute.

As a result of an arbitration case, the Arbitration Committee has acknowledged long-term and persistent problems in the editing of articles related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, broadly understood. As a result, the Committee has enacted broad editing restrictions, described here and below.
These editing restrictions may be applied to any editor for cause, provided the editor has been previously informed of the case. This message is to so inform you. This message does not necessarily mean that your current editing has been deemed a problem; this is a template message crafted to make it easier to notify any user who has edited the topic of the existence of these sanctions.
Generally, the next step, if an administrator feels your conduct on pages in this topic area is disruptive, would be a warning, to be followed by the imposition of sanctions (although in cases of serious disruption, the warning may be omitted). Hopefully no such action will be necessary.
This notice is only effective if given by an uninvolved administrator and logged here. T. Canens ( talk) 11:26, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

You recently re-added "non-voting" to the gaza flotilla raid article. I have no problem with this because you added a reference source which made the non-voting aspect clear. However your comment about knee-jerk removal is rude, and along with your other rude comments in the forum, it assumes bad faith of other editors. It also makes a false implication that I did not read the referenced source before making the change, which is NOT true, and this is obvious since you added a source to the end of the sentence in your edit.
Also the comments page is not the place to have that kind of discussion. If you want to say something to me you should leave a comment on my talk page. Wikipedia:Edit_summary#Use_of_edit_summaries_in_disputes
If you choose to continue this inappropriate and confrontational behavior I will bring your conduct to the attention of the admins keeping track of this page.
You have strong views on this topic and your opinions are appreciated. But if you want to be part of the community that is editing this page then you should conduct yourself appropriately.

This is to inform you that, as per this AE request, you are banned from the topic of the Israeli-Arab conflict for one month. The topic ban covers all pages, parts of pages and discussions related to that conflict, broadly understood. This sanction can be appealed as described at WP:ARBPIA#Appeal of discretionary sanctions. Sandstein 10:12, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
As you know, I believe that you have been treated unfairly. Indeed, after two admins asked for an (in my view unwarranted) one-week topic ban, the decision to impose a one month ban seems extremely harsh. It is also clear that other editors who make comments at least as serious as yours get off with a minor slap on the wrist.
Despite this, I would regret it if you decide as a consequence to leave Wikipedia permanently. Please, after you have had a chance to calm down, reconsider your decision. It would also be worth appealing against this extraordinary ban, on the basis that it is being applied inconsistently. RolandR ( talk) 16:08, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello, thanks for the comment on the talkpage of the french chemistry project. You mentioned that one goal of the english project was the building of a database ("...c'est de proposer ces informations sous un forme qui pourra être lu automagiquement et que nous pourrons garantir la fiabilité scientifique.") I'm just wondering if you have already developed something for that purpose. If not I just want to bring that
system to your attention. This system extracts information from dump and create database available
here. The french project already defined his chembox to fit that
data extraction. Some work has to be done in order to extract the reference and the conditions of the measurement. For that we mainly need some programers able to work on the toolserver.
If you have some people working on that problem I will be happy if you can say me where I can get in touch with those people in order to be able to keep our system up-to-date with the development of that database. Thank you

Hi! I noticed that you deleted my addition that the protest was held the day before the World Cup final, as being 'irrelevant.' I actually beg to disagree with you, and here's why. You say that the protest was scheduled before the scenario of the final was known. If the compromise was approved on June 28, that's only two weeks before the final, and the article indicates the final report was released the day before the protest. I don't know if you've ever participated in organizing a demonstration, but I think it is absolutely amazing and significant that the day before arguably the biggest national team sporting event in Spain in recent memory that there was a demonstration of one million people. I happen to be American, a much less politicized country for sure and a much larger one, but I cannot imagine anyone scheduling a demonstration, say, the weekend of our Super Bowl, which is the closest thing to the World Cup final we have, and not nearly as big. I can think of one time when our Senator agreed to a meeting we had been calling for on our Independence Day, thinking that weekend everyone would be too busy to attend, and we managed to get 500 people to turn out. And a million people would be significant in a U.S. protest as well. I think the fact that the parties were able to get a million people out in Barcelona, while the next day a multiethnic team representing all of Spain is playing for the World Cup (and congratulations by the way), is historically significant and speaks to the depth of the issue and the seriousness of the Catalan people. It may not seem like much now, but ten or twenty years from now, people will look back on this weekend and see one million people marching for their civil rights on one day, and the entire country glued to the World Cup final on the very next day, and realize, if nothing else, what a superb job of organizing this must have required. I'd appreciate hearing your thoughts. Thanks. Bruxism ( talk) 04:23, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Stop removing the perfectly referenced lowest estimate for the number of demonstrators in the 2010 Catalan autonomy protest. The estimate has appeared in all major Spanish newspapers and TV channels. You only want to show the highest estimates (the ones provided by the parties supporting the demonstration, as always happens), which is against NPOV. Also, the reason you provide for removing it is that it is 'ridiculous' and, for some reason, you don't like it to be there. Apparently, you don't know that Wikipedia is about verifiability, not truth. Check this out.

Thanks for the replying over at the ITN candidates page. I'd love to see the stats for last year when you are done with them. Are you looking at just ITN, or the Main Page as a whole?

I would say that this is an incentive to get articles featured, but I seem to recall that the queue for that is very long now.

Physchim62: You accuse me of promulgating pseudoscience. You claim here I support the crazy notion that all science went down the tubes with the 1983-adoption of a time-of-flight definition for the metre. Also see here, where you use the term FUBAR to describe my position. Although I'd have thought myself to be the best authority upon what I think, and although, for example, I have made a very clear statement of my views during the SoL debacle, you refuse to accept my denial of all such thoughts, even though (naturally) there aren't any diffs and there is no other evidence whatsoever to support these notions about my present or past views.
It is perfectly clear that my statements concerning the SoL border on the trivial, and definitely don't classify as pseudoscience. It is untrue that the 1983 BIPM change of definition of the metre disturbs me in any way. My concern was merely that the implications of this change were confusingly presented in the introduction to the SoL article.
I believe that what has happened here is very simple: during the flurry of back and forth dementia among participants on the SoL Talk page, you have assembled a collage of things said by many participants and mistakenly attached it to myself. I respectfully request that you re-examine this matter and correct your misimpression of me. Brews ohare ( talk) 21:15, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

i´ve noticed you seem to be the only person to persist with the current name for the icesave issue. i´ve also noticed that you display a fair amount of bias in the talk page eg:
look at the figure released by the Central Bank of Iceland itself: the following are taken from its Economic Indicators, comparing January 2003 and September 2008
* Bank lending to the domestic sector: 698.3bn ISK → 4827.4bn ISK (+1226.5%) * Krónur money supply (M3): 393.6bn → 1230.3bn ISK (+312.6%) * Labour force (est.): 154,600 → 148,600 (−3.9%) * Wage index: 228.7 → 350.4 (+153.2%) * Consumer price index: 224.7 → 315.5 (+140.4%)
And what about the declared value of goods and services produced in Iceland? +26.8% from end-2002 to end-2007 in krónur terms...
what is your personal stake in the title of this article? did you lose money to icesave? the current title of the article clearly does not reflect the article´s subject. taking the article to the admin´s board with your side of the story was a masterstroke to get your way but this is not in the spirit of a community programme. i´m sorry the world doesn´t see everything your way. -- Lotsofmagnets ( talk) 17:10, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Oxides are very stable(oxidation potential -1.23), sulfides are sort of stable (they decompose with strong heat) (oxidation potential -0.14), selenides (?), tellurides are very strong reducing agents (oxidation potential +1.14), and polonides should be almost unable to form. The same thing with the halides. Fluorine→fluoride (+2.87), chlorine→chloride (+1.36), bromine-bromide (+1.06), iodine-iodide (+0.54), astatine-astatide (even lower).

Stuff like that is OK on an article talk page, since it's not the article. Indeed, it should remain on the talk page so that we can discuss its applicability to the article.

Hi Physchim, You seem to have removed all mention of the journalist Ben-Yishai who was traveling with Israeli forces and witnessed the incident, and you claim he was not an eyewitness. Do you have any RS that support these changes?

Physchim,
In your recent edit here: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=367587067&oldid=367586691
You removed a sentence with the claim that the ITIC report did not say that. However it was the very first sentence of the referenced article: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/world/israel-points-finger-at-turkish-pm/story-e6frg6so-1225878143687
If you think this information should not be included you should explain why clearly in your edit and on the discussion page.
I recommend that you undo your edit and then redo it with a clearer explanation.
Or explain on the talk page the logic behind your claim that the ITIC did not make the statements as per the source.

Hello. I noticed that you are doing multiple reverts (restoring image, restoring link to SS Exodus, etc.) on Gaza flotilla raid article. Please note that doing these reverts, some of which are in contradiction with extensive earlier discussions and agreements on the talk page, is a clear violation of the WP:1RR restriction on the article. Many users, including myself, were recently blocked for 24 hours because of similar behaviour. -- 386-DX ( talk) 13:00, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi Physchim,
Please be more careful about editing content that has been discussed in the talk pages and subject to earlier edit wars.
Here are 4 reverts or re-insertions you did in a 24-hour period on a article with 1RR protection:
1) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367422427
2) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367587067
3) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367595252
4) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=prev&oldid=367597991
You may also want to tone it down in the talk section as per WP:Forum and avoid posts like this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Talk:Gaza_flotilla_raid&diff=367609343&oldid=367609193
It is understandable that this article is bringing out a lot of frustration for people, but try to remember that wikipedia is trying to be a neutral encyclopedia that does not support any side. If we all start calling the other side names it gets difficult for people to positively contribute.
Good Luck,

Hey nice to meet you, personally on your talk page. You really need to see Waltz with Bashir, I insist ;) Ron Ben Yishay is far from fictional as you suggest, in fact he is pretty solid real.

As a result of an arbitration case, the Arbitration Committee has acknowledged long-term and persistent problems in the editing of articles related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, broadly understood. As a result, the Committee has enacted broad editing restrictions, described here and below.
These editing restrictions may be applied to any editor for cause, provided the editor has been previously informed of the case. This message is to so inform you. This message does not necessarily mean that your current editing has been deemed a problem; this is a template message crafted to make it easier to notify any user who has edited the topic of the existence of these sanctions.
Generally, the next step, if an administrator feels your conduct on pages in this topic area is disruptive, would be a warning, to be followed by the imposition of sanctions (although in cases of serious disruption, the warning may be omitted). Hopefully no such action will be necessary.
This notice is only effective if given by an uninvolved administrator and logged here. T. Canens ( talk) 11:26, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
I have been evaporating a solution of iron(III) acetate, as you saw in User talk:Chemicalinterest#Fe acetate. I just saw that it has evaporated and added water to it. It formed a brownish suspension (first picture), which upon addition of HCl to it turned to a red solution. So it did form basic iron(III) acetate when dried. The equilibrium could be:

You recently re-added "non-voting" to the gaza flotilla raid article. I have no problem with this because you added a reference source which made the non-voting aspect clear. However your comment about knee-jerk removal is rude, and along with your other rude comments in the forum, it assumes bad faith of other editors. It also makes a false implication that I did not read the referenced source before making the change, which is NOT true, and this is obvious since you added a source to the end of the sentence in your edit.
Also the comments page is not the place to have that kind of discussion. If you want to say something to me you should leave a comment on my talk page. Wikipedia:Edit_summary#Use_of_edit_summaries_in_disputes
If you choose to continue this inappropriate and confrontational behavior I will bring your conduct to the attention of the admins keeping track of this page.
You have strong views on this topic and your opinions are appreciated. But if you want to be part of the community that is editing this page then you should conduct yourself appropriately.

This is to inform you that, as per this AE request, you are banned from the topic of the Israeli-Arab conflict for one month. The topic ban covers all pages, parts of pages and discussions related to that conflict, broadly understood. This sanction can be appealed as described at WP:ARBPIA#Appeal of discretionary sanctions. Sandstein 10:12, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
As you know, I believe that you have been treated unfairly. Indeed, after two admins asked for an (in my view unwarranted) one-week topic ban, the decision to impose a one month ban seems extremely harsh. It is also clear that other editors who make comments at least as serious as yours get off with a minor slap on the wrist.
Despite this, I would regret it if you decide as a consequence to leave Wikipedia permanently. Please, after you have had a chance to calm down, reconsider your decision. It would also be worth appealing against this extraordinary ban, on the basis that it is being applied inconsistently. RolandR ( talk) 16:08, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello, thanks for the comment on the talkpage of the french chemistry project. You mentioned that one goal of the english project was the building of a database ("...c'est de proposer ces informations sous un forme qui pourra être lu automagiquement et que nous pourrons garantir la fiabilité scientifique.") I'm just wondering if you have already developed something for that purpose. If not I just want to bring that
system to your attention. This system extracts information from dump and create database available
here. The french project already defined his chembox to fit that
data extraction. Some work has to be done in order to extract the reference and the conditions of the measurement. For that we mainly need some programers able to work on the toolserver.
If you have some people working on that problem I will be happy if you can say me where I can get in touch with those people in order to be able to keep our system up-to-date with the development of that database. Thank you

Why do you keep changing "The accident occured on St. John's Eve, a major celebration in Spain, as in other European countries" to "The accident occured on St. John's Eve, a major celebration in Spain, as in other mediterranean countries"? It makes it sound like San Juan/Sant Joan only happens in the med which if you check the midsummer article definitely isn't the case.

Nice work - Dumelow ( talk) 09:40, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Hi! I noticed that you deleted my addition that the protest was held the day before the World Cup final, as being 'irrelevant.' I actually beg to disagree with you, and here's why. You say that the protest was scheduled before the scenario of the final was known. If the compromise was approved on June 28, that's only two weeks before the final, and the article indicates the final report was released the day before the protest. I don't know if you've ever participated in organizing a demonstration, but I think it is absolutely amazing and significant that the day before arguably the biggest national team sporting event in Spain in recent memory that there was a demonstration of one million people. I happen to be American, a much less politicized country for sure and a much larger one, but I cannot imagine anyone scheduling a demonstration, say, the weekend of our Super Bowl, which is the closest thing to the World Cup final we have, and not nearly as big. I can think of one time when our Senator agreed to a meeting we had been calling for on our Independence Day, thinking that weekend everyone would be too busy to attend, and we managed to get 500 people to turn out. And a million people would be significant in a U.S. protest as well. I think the fact that the parties were able to get a million people out in Barcelona, while the next day a multiethnic team representing all of Spain is playing for the World Cup (and congratulations by the way), is historically significant and speaks to the depth of the issue and the seriousness of the Catalan people. It may not seem like much now, but ten or twenty years from now, people will look back on this weekend and see one million people marching for their civil rights on one day, and the entire country glued to the World Cup final on the very next day, and realize, if nothing else, what a superb job of organizing this must have required. I'd appreciate hearing your thoughts. Thanks. Bruxism ( talk) 04:23, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Stop removing the perfectly referenced lowest estimate for the number of demonstrators in the 2010 Catalan autonomy protest. The estimate has appeared in all major Spanish newspapers and TV channels. You only want to show the highest estimates (the ones provided by the parties supporting the demonstration, as always happens), which is against NPOV. Also, the reason you provide for removing it is that it is 'ridiculous' and, for some reason, you don't like it to be there. Apparently, you don't know that Wikipedia is about verifiability, not truth. Check this out.
