Hi |
|||
Why did you remove the parties who supported BiH on the article [[Bosnian war]]? America supported Bosnia diplomatically, and Iran even had proposals for an armed intervention by Muslim countries in Bosnia, etc. I'm just curious on why you decided to remove it, because to me it doesn't make sense. --[[User:Spafky|Spafky]] ([[User talk:Spafky|talk]]) 13:00, 23 August 2019 (UTC) |

:I reverted its addition because {{u|Pincrete}} had already removed it, [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Bosnian_War&diff=910266464&oldid=910212874 here], {{u|Spafky}}. Per [[WP:BRD]], the proposed addition should be discussed on the article's talk page. [[User:Cordless Larry|Cordless Larry]] ([[User talk:Cordless Larry#top|talk]]) 13:19, 23 August 2019 (UTC) |

Hi. As a recent contributor to [[Asian Americans]], I am seeking your input for a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Asian_Americans#Proposed_change_to_Lead_Section,_paragraph_2 discussion about changes to the lead section] that I started. I'm trying to set a good example of consensus-building, especially for the lead section. Your input would be most appreciated. Thanks! --[[User:Ishu|Ishu]] ([[User talk:Ishu|talk]]) 15:04, 23 August 2019 (UTC) |

== Americans of British Ancestry == |
|||
Hi Larry, |
|||
Americans who enumerate their ancestry as British, Cornish, English, Scottish, Scots-Irish, Manx, Welsh, Orkney, Ulster-Scots, or related, numbered 34,275,567 in 2013. This figure should have already been listed on the page. Those who list their ancestry as "American" [[British_Americans|are of British origin]]. Residents self-identifying as British numbered '''61 million in 1980'''; 30 million people of British ancestry did not die in 30 years without producing a single child. |
|||
The page in question is in discussion of emigrants of British ''ethnic and ancestral origin'', beginning with the settlement of the former British colonies. There are in fact more people of ethnic British background in the US than in Britain itself. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:111818b|111818b]] ([[User talk:111818b#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/111818b|contribs]]) 10:26, 27 August 2019 (UTC)</small> [[User:111818b|111818b]] ([[User talk:111818b|talk]]) 10:43, 27 August 2019 (UTC) |

== Sources == |

Hello, |
|||
I've received two messages from your re updates to Richard Rose page. There is a source in my text? I'm not sure why I am receiving messages saying there is no source? |

:Thanks for contacting me, {{u|VictorBailey25}}. If you look at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Richard_Rose_(political_scientist)&oldid=912544588 current version] of the article, you'll see that the content is accompanied by footnote references. You replaced the content with text that listed a single source at the end. At a minimum, this new text would require footnote references pointing to the specific pages in that source that support each part of the article. However, the source is a book by Rose, and Wikipedia's preference is that articles be based largely on sources independent of the subject. Furthermore, aspects of your text were too promotional, such as "he has been an innovator in political science and public policy research". If you have some sort of personal or financial relationship with Rose, please consult [[WP:COI]].

== Streatham and Clapham High School: Proposed new section: Pupil count planning breach and application to expand == |
|||
[[Talk:Nova Science Publishers]] |
|||
Hi, |
|||
this source hardly can be seen as a statement in a peer reviewed journal. among others it uses a wrong photo, which you can easily check on google maps and google street view. vanity press? nova never charged any author a penny. in google scholar and scopus and wos you simply don‘t have any negative article on nova‘s performance. the „librarians“ are just two persons. full stop |
|||
I have put a suggested new section for [[Streatham and Clapham High School]] on [[Talk:Streatham and Clapham High School]]. I noticed you've raised [[WP:COI]] and [[WP:PROMOTION]] concerns about its current content, and so I wanted to run it by you rather than just sticking it straight in. |
|||

|||
If you have any suggestions I'm more than happy to adopt them. I think that the information - however it might best be presented - is important and highly relevant to many people who are interested in the school. It would be great if it could achieve a stable presence on the page, if sufficient consensus can be reached on an appropriate form of presentation. |
|||
:The claim that precisely two librarians have criticised Nova would need a source confirming that number, which is why I removed it. Anyway, the place to discuss this is on the article's talk page, not here. [[User:Cordless Larry|Cordless Larry]] ([[User talk:Cordless Larry#top|talk]]) 13:16, 25 December 2024 (UTC) |
