Welcome to skagedal's talk page!
All comments are appreciated, although I'm not very active at the moment.
Please add new messages to the bottom, use this link! I usually respond on this page, I think it's easier if discussions are kept on the page where they're started.
As I say, "This editor sometimes leaves annotations for sources, most often in articles on biological taxa. If you do not know what these mean, ask. Many refer to source material that is freely available online."
I had used that source for the article on Greater Rheas, but I believe you psychology guys may find it interesting also. It discusses a practical application of classical conditioning: to make captive-bred, "Kaspar Hauser"- etc animals fear predators again. This is very useful when you want to reintroduce such animals into the wild. (It does not work well with the more intelligent ones - great apes, parrots, corvids. These only get Little Alberted, unfortunately)
Simply try Googling for the data I annotated. If you run into problems, my Talk page has a link at the top where you can resolve abbreviations of journal titles. Dysmorodrepanis ( talk) 10:00, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
not sure if you can help, but the article on Algebra groups has an interesting type "fuckship". Perhaps you can get this corrected. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.210.232.62 ( talk • contribs) 17:50, 5 November 2008

I'm not sure where the discussion on this is taking place now - but one thing worth bearing in mind is that "psychotherapy" can mean different things in different countries. We came across this when looking at child psychotherapies. In the USA it tends to mean all therapies whereas in the UK it tends to mean those deriving from psychoanalysis. The source for this (Gross) did say though that the distinction was less clear now than it used to be. Fainites barley 22:51, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
- Aha, thanks! I was thinking about that e.g. some advocates of behavior therapy mignt not see themselves as working with "psychotherapy", but I didn't know there were regional differences. Could you perhaps give me the precise source? Btw, I think the preferrable place for discussion of this would be Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Psychology. / skagedal ... 08:20, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello. Thanks for the notification. I won't be joining the discussion because I have little knowledge about the capitalization/naming conventions for this subject.

Skagedal, I wonder if you could give me a hand here, being a clear thinking sort of person. I'm struggling with this article on a (mainly USA) pseudoscience called 'attachment therapy'. Fortunately there are a number of excellent peer-reviewed sources about it, but I'm struggling with the names. The proponents and users and critics call it 'attachment therapy' (even though its not actually based on attachment theory). Unfortunately, in clinical literature, especially in non-USA countries, all sorts of attachment based therapies are sometimes loosely called 'attachment therapy' To make things worse, the non-attachment therapy practitioners used to call their therapies 'attachment-based' therapy to distinguish themselves from attachment therapy, but of course attachment therapy proponents have now started doing that too. Could you read the lead and tell me if you come out of it clear about what the article is about or not? Grateful thanks Fainites barley scribs 22:00, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi there—I noticed your Featured anniversary feed on the toolserver is a little buggered today (August 4) in that it includes the boilerplate intended for editors. I don't know if this is just a temporary glitch, or they are now generating HTML that breaks some of your parser's assumptions, but I thought you might like to know. Also, a belated thank you for these feeds—they're an integral part of my Twitterbot, through a ridiculously convoluted collection of cron jobs, Yahoo! Pipes, and Twitterfeed. I can probably work around the boilerplate issue if you're unable to fix it. Thanks again! — johndburger 15:21, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Nomination of Chet Ramey for deletion
A discussion has begun about whether the article Chet Ramey, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chet Ramey until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion. Msnicki ( talk) 00:25, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi! It looks like the selected anniversaries feed has, for the past few weeks, not been displaying the right pages. It's been displaying the staging area instead of the final articles - maybe something to do with the time the script is run?

Speedy deletion nomination of Virtual Computer
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Virtual Computer requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. jæs (talk) 16:25, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
I invite you to the yearly Berlin hackathon, 1-3 June. Registration is now open. If you need financial assistance or help with visa or hotel, then please register by May 1st and mention it in the registration form.
This is the premier event for the MediaWiki and Wikimedia technical community. We'll be hacking, designing, teaching, and socialising, primarily talking about ResourceLoader and Gadgets ( extending functionality with JavaScript), the switch to Lua for templates, Wikidata, and Wikimedia Labs.
We want to bring 100-150 people together, including lots of people who have not attended such events before. User scripts, gadgets, API use, Toolserver, Wikimedia Labs, mobile, structured data, templates -- if you are into any of these things, we want you to come!
I also thought you might want to know about other upcoming events where you can learn more about MediaWiki customization and development, how to best use the web API for bots, and various upcoming features and changes. We'd love to have power users, bot maintainers and writers, and template makers at these events so we can all learn from each other and chat about what needs doing.
Check out the the developers' days preceding Wikimania in July in Washington, DC and our other events.
Best wishes! - Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation's Volunteer Development Coordinator. Please reply on my talk page, here or at mediawiki.org. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Volunteer Development Coordinator 02:54, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

The same editor who misnamed that article also moved "Childhood Autism Rating Scale" to Childhood-autism rating scale, in case you're interested in fixing that one also. Thanks. 75.177.156.78 ( talk) 19:28, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
- Well spotted. That one I could not move directly, so listed at WP:RM. Hope you'll decide to create a user account! That way, you'd (soon) be able to move pages and other stuff yourself.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current
Arbitration Committee election. The
Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia
arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose
site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on
the voting page. For the Election committee,

Thanks for uploading File:Mauro Scocco album.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- Minorax«¦ talk¦» 07:03, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
