Zaatar Photo

Hello. I noticed that you recently uploaded a [ http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Red_Zaatar.jpg] photo at the commons. I remind you that arab food aticles have been stable since most of the disruptive Israel pov pushers have been topic banned or blocked. Think twice before adding this photo to Arab food articles. Remember all your edits are public and there are many constructive editors who monitor the contributions of people who are know to push viewpoints that go against the reality recognized by the entire world except for one small country.

Thanks for your input. Fortunately I have been keeping track of all the cryptic threats/warnings that various "new users" leave on my talk page; the list has grown quite long, and will only make my job easier in the forthcoming SPI and Arbcom cases. -- nsaum75 ^{!Dígame¡‎} 16:58, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Edits concerning website reference

Edits of verfied data and reference

Hi Nsaum75,

Please do not delete material, content, or references based on your personal opinions or outlook. The article cited in Vulgar media is verified data and the website is not a "blog." Your personal unverified opinion that the website is a "blog" does not make it so. There is nothing "bloggy" about verified data found on a website.

Please do not delete references without discussion with the community on the talk page. Publicmoney (talk) 14:47, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding deletions of reference on "College Readiness" Rankings of school districts

Response to Teitho, Kulu and Nsaum75:

Thank you for your comments. They are always welcome. But you should have done so before deleting verified information from school district pages. However, I’ll answer your comments and “doubts.”

From your comments it is obvious that you do not dispute or challenge the Rankings of the “College Readiness” of school districts by the referenced website. The fact is you cannot honestly do that, because they are fully verified and based on data published by the State of Texas. Rankings of more than 150 school districts calculated by the referenced website are absolutely essential as they provide context, substance, and reference points for comparison of “College Readiness” data by the State of Texas. Your improper deletions of rankings prevented the Wikipedia readers from properly understanding the college readiness statistics of 150 school districts. I hope you recognize this now.

However, you improperly without discussion deleted the valuable undisputed Rankings that provided context to the TEA data because you feel angry about the low rankings. Please be advised that no Wikipedia policy allows this kind of deletion and obstruction based your feelings. That is called vandalism. Do not pose your personal beliefs and interests as Wikipedia policies.

You should have done your homework before making comments about TEA statistics as the information, definition, methodology of the College Readiness data is fully explained by TEA at the end of the cited TEA report. The fact that you are ill-informed about the definitions of terms does not allow you the right to delete verified undisputed rankings. Please educate yourself if you do not understand TEA data or ask.

Your comment about WordPress “websites” being “blogs” is absurd – they are not. Visit the Wordpress.org to educate yourself. Your personal feelings and beliefs about school districts are not relevant here. There is no “advocacy” or “spam” or “promotion” involved in presenting valid rankings provided by a website based on fully verified raw data by TEA. If you delete the rankings of the poorly performing school districts, will you also delete the rankings of the high performing school districts? I don’t think so. That would be bad logic, correct?

I will update the pages with rankings. Please do not delete the rankings based on your personal beliefs about avoiding verified information public school districts.

Thank you. Publicmoney (talk) 06:27, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
