This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers, which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated.

General Ization is trying to take a short wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia soon. Most likely, however, General Ization will not be able to keep away from Wikipedia for that long, and will probably be back a lot earlier while making some small edits every once in a while anyway.

"Vandalsim"

um.

vandal (n.) Look up vandal at Dictionary.com 1660s, "willful destroyer of what is beautiful or venerable,"

@Stayhomegal: I have Wikipedia's definition of vandalism for you to read, and your edits [1][2][3] meet the definition. Repeat them or anything like them and and you will be blocked from editing. General Ization ^Talk 18:49, 13 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Seventh Amendment

The Seventh Amendment provides the right to jury trial only in civil cases, and Ballew v. Georgia is about criminal juries. It's a Sixth Amendment case, not a Seventh Amendment one. Harry1835 (talk) 19:33, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Andy Murray

Hello. This edit was not made in mistake. If the article is going to be written in such a style whereby Murray is referred to as British, then I suggest articles such as Fred Perry, David Beckham and David Bowie are also changed to such a style. Having each individual described as the country the come from within the UK is more accurate, I believe. 2A02:C7D:4EEA:2A00:C11C:EB63:C704:BDE8 (talk) 14:42, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

See the article's Talk page for the consensus established earlier this year on this question. Your edit was at odds with that consensus; if you want to start a new discussion on the article's Talk page, please do, but do not change this against consensus unless and until a new consensus is established.

Wikipedia's MoS

Thanks for the comment pointing me to MoS:LQ. I did not know that. I dislike that style intensely personally, but now that I know I'll watch out for it on Wikipedia and do my best to stick by it. 207.30.77.162 (talk) 15:29, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

List of law schools attended by United States Supreme Court Justices

Hi if Columbia is not a Law School Why is it on the list and Ruth Bader Ginsburg went to Columbia University not the Law School.look at her Bio. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_Bader_Ginsburg — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.36.68.29 (talk) 21:15, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The degree that Gorsuch received was not a degree from the Columbia Law School. Gorsuch graduated cum laude from Columbia College, an undergraduate school, in three years with a bachelor of arts in political science.[4]. Columbia College is not a law school. Columbia College is also not Columbia Law School, which is a graduate school. They are different schools within the Columbia University system. General Ization ^Talk 21:22, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dude Come on please Gorsuch went to Columbia Law School!! Please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.36.68.29 (talk) 21:54, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

IP, Ginsburg earned an LLB degree from Columbia Law School, which is a graduate school which is a part of the Columbia University system. Therefore, she belongs on the list in the section for Columbia Law School alumni. Gorsuch earned his BA, which is an undergraduate degree, from Columbia College, which is also part of the Columbia University system but is not a law school and does not award law degrees. Therefore he does not belong on the list in the section for Columbia Law School alumni. General Ization ^Talk 21:56, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding my change to Pan Am flight 841

Okay, I'm the daughter of Eugene Vaughn, the captain that is cited in Pan Am flight 841. I should know better than ANYONE who in our family became airline pilots. Whoever wrote this said that both of his sons are airline pilots...INCORRECT! He does have 2 sons but only ONE of the sons became an airline pilot. I am his daughter and I became an airline pilot as well. So it's a son and daughter, not two sons!!!! It's insulting to me to not be properly noted in this article. What the heck do I need to do to get this changed to reflect the correct information!!!! HELP! The reference that reflected the wrong information was based on an article I submitted to a Pan Am documentary. That article was also apparently edited and even spelled my last name incorrectly so the reference has issues. Bottom line, he has a son and a daughter that became airline pilots....NOT two sons!

@F9busflyer: Assuming for the moment that you are Janet Elliott, please explain this, the cited source on which that statement in the article is based, which is attributed to you/her. We rely on reliable, published sources, not on the recollections or unsupported claims of anyone who decides to come along, claiming to be a family member or otherwise. We cannot change the article to disagree with our cited source just because you say we should. See Reliable sources. If you can provide another reliable, published source that confirms your claim, then we can change it. General Ization ^Talk 01:45, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
