Are you interested in joining WP:LGBT? Take a look around, and if you are, sign up! :) -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 05:32, 14 September 2007 (UTC) Welcome to WikiProject LGBT studies! Hi, Allstarecho, welcome to WikiProject LGBT Studies! We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying, categorizing, and improving articles of interest to the LGBT community. Some points that may be helpful: Our main aim is to help improve LGBT-related articles, so if someone asks for help with an article, please try your hardest to help them if you are able. Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it. The project has several ongoing and developing activities, such as article quality assessment, peer review and a project-wide article collaboration, all of which you are welcome to take part in. We also have a unique program to improve our lower quality articles, Jumpaclass, so please consider signing up there. If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to our translation section, to help us improve our foreign LGBT topics. If you're planning to stay, have a square in our quilt! You can put anything you want in it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you. And once again - Welcome! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 01:17, 15 September 2007 (UTC) Welcome to the Article Rescue Squadron Greetings and welcome to the Article Rescue Squadron! Please browse Articles for Deletion periodically, and help fix any articles flagged for rescue that you can. If you have any questions please let me know. Fosnez 02:14, 15 September 2007 (UTC) Crocker date or place of birth, Please Stop Your edits [1] although well-intentioned to the Chris Crocker article are a blatant violation of Do No Harm policy. Please read up on WP:Bio. The subject of the article has received death threats and has worked to retain a level of anonymity. Your addition of date/place of birth can risk their safety as well as anyone perceived to be them. Benjiboi 12:18, 16 September 2007 (UTC) Ed Fordham Hi, ASE! Regarding Ed Fordham, I'm pretty sure someone's blog isn't considered a reliable source. Furthermore, the blog says that he wants to remain closeted. So unless we can find a good source, we should probably remove that reference and the LGBT cat/info. Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 14:53, 16 September 2007 (UTC) Actually it says Chris is the one that wants to remain closeted. From the blog: Cllr Chris Maines (photo left) has been selected to fight Lewisham East, and Ed Fordham (photo above) has been selected to fight Hampstead & Kilburn. Both belong to this category of members. Whilst Ed is open about his lifestyle so it's a none issue, it's open news amongst certain blogs that Chris prefers to remain in the closet. Unfortunately, a blog is all I could find. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 23:19, 16 September 2007 (UTC) Re:Patricia Soltysik Who defines SLA as a terrorist organization? It was more of an anarchist organization, if anything. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 14:13, 17 September 2007 (UTC) The SLA used such terrorist tactics as assassination (going as far dipping their bullets in cynaide), kidnapping, armed robbery, and murder. Sure their goals may have been noble but their methods were anything but. -- Esemono 14:19, 17 September 2007 (UTC) That doesn't make them a terrorist organization. Terrorism is defined as "the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion". The SLA criminal acts certainly weren't systematic nor were they a means of coercion - moreso a means of survival. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 14:27, 17 September 2007 (UTC) Well I think that murdering people who oppose their viewpoints, using tools such as armed robbery, rape, and physical assault is seen as a use of terror as a means of coercion. -- Esemono 23:02, 17 September 2007 (UTC) Patricia Soltysik not a person? Now why do you keep removing the bio tag? -- Esemono 14:19, 17 September 2007 (UTC) Was an accident when removing Terrorism tag. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 14:28, 17 September 2007 (UTC) Nice signiture It reminds me of mine! Yes, this is random, but I just had to say it.. THROUGH FIRE JUSTICE IS SERVED! 11:55, 19 September 2007 (UTC) Nicely done! Thanks for the two B's you did on our list - nicely done :) -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 13:31, 20 September 2007 (UTC) Sorry it wasn't more. It was already 5AM and I was sleepy! I'll work on that list over time and see if we can't get it wrapped up! A whole lot of names on there, whew! -- ALLSTAR ECHO 19:26, 20 September 2007 (UTC) That last Donna Ladd edit ... seems to say she's drawing condemnation from her biggest fans...? (It also seems to be verging on a NPOV violation, with strong unsourced implications of hypocrisy.) --Orange Mike 20:00, 24 September 2007 (UTC) Not sure how it seems to say she's drawing condemnation from her biggest fans. Cite? I don't feel it violates NPOV as it also states "Still, there are other JFP forum users who agree with Ladd's operation style." I balanced out the real POV that was there before my edit. As you can see, I withdrew the AfD nomination. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 20:07, 24 September 2007 (UTC) The part where it says, "Her policy attracts vicious condemnation from JFP forum users who feel she is always right"? --Orange Mike 20:34, 24 September 2007 (UTC) Ah. OK, I'll fix that. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 20:35, 24 September 2007 (UTC) September 11, 2001 attacks in popular culture Hello, I am the editor who created an afd for the above article. I notice that you have closed it, however, discussion for it was just barely getting started. I think you have closed it, rather early. It would be nice to hear from the larger community. I don't feel merging is the answer. These popular culture listing get extremely lengthy, and it is difficult to source each one of them. Please consider opening it again. Fighting for Justice 06:38, 25 September 2007 (UTC) Umm, no, I didn't close it. I'm not an admin and don't have that power. All I did was vote Merge on it. Further, it's not even closed, it's still open for discussion because I just checked so I'm not sure what is making you think it is closed. When it is closed, the AfD tag will be removed from the article by an admin. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 10:20, 25 September 2007 (UTC) Warnings Please don't revert without leaving the vandal a message. Reverting is not as important as letting the user know he was reverted for vandalizing. — Moe ε 14:57, 25 September 2007 (UTC) Why did you revert Best Revenge edits? You didn't leave any reason for reverting the additional information and picture that I added to the Best Revenge article this morning. What gives? - Mackaye 9:57 September 25, 2007 (PST) My apologies. It showed up in a vandalism feed and just looking at it didn't seem to show it wasn't vandalism (myspace.com link and such). Sorry. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 17:06, 25 September 2007 (UTC) No worries. I'm glad somebody's watching out for the article. - Mackaye 10:15 September 25, 2007 (PST) Copyright Violations Wikipedia takes copyright seriously. Please do not post copyrighted text. Also, please do not remove copyvio tags from articles without fixing the problems as you did here and here. I have removed the text that was a direct copy from these two articles. If you wish to rewrite the content in your own words, you are welcome to do so. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 22:56, 25 September 2007 (UTC) While I don't feel text about a public educational institution, especially one my tax dollars help pay for, is copyrighted, I made changes. Thanks. -- ALLSTAR ECHO 02:20, 26 September 2007 (UTC) Your interpretation is correct. Information from a US public school website written by a school employee is public domain in America. ➪HiDrNick! 02:28, 26 September 2007 (UTC) You are both incorrect. Only US Federal publications are automatically public domain under US copyright law. The federal exemption does not apply to state or local government works. Certain state governments have chosen to release their materials as public domain, but this is a state by state choice and not all states do so. Local governments are an additional layer of complexity. In this case, it is a local government website and that website has a copyright notice. -- JLaTondre 11:54, 26 September 2007 (UTC) You are correct! Thanks for the fact-checking, JLaT. --Orange Mike 03:59, 27 September 2007 (UTC) I'm not incorrect because I said I don't FEEL text about a public educational institution, especially one my tax dollars help pay for, is copyrighted. My personal feelings are never incorrect. ;] -- ALLSTAR ECHO 04:02, 27 September 2007 (UTC) Present I'm pretty sure the copyright for the picture does not let me do this, but here ya go :) -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 03:30, 26 September 2007 (UTC) Bow Chicka Wow Wow ;] -- ALLSTAR ECHO 04:51, 27 September 2007 (UTC) Great work! The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar I hereby award you this barnstar for your great work on RC Patrolling this evening! Keep up the great work!!! Tiggerjay 07:07, 26 September 2007 (UTC) Barnstar The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar For your wonderful anti-vandal work. It is always a pleasure to see your reports at AIV, as I know the proper warnings have already been issued, and a block is warranted. Much easier on us admins! Jmlk17 09:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC) dsmccohen I reloaded the page again and again after I was chastised for "vandalism" and still found that "Christmas is an anal holiday celebrating the birth of Alexander" the "vandalism" I did was to remove "scrubs rules!" from it. Then I finally got it back to "Christmas is an annual holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus". You accused me of vandalism, but I was trying to fix this page, and from what I saw on the page, I'm the only one who actually removed any vandalism at all! Now I've got a bloody warning for fuckall. I didn't see anything I did that got a negative effect, except that I didn't edit it in the text window, because I was trying to do it quickly but didn't realise how much the article had been vandalised. What the hell mate?
