unlock Jenni Rivera

Hello. You locked Jenni Rivera on January 19. It will be 2 months next week. Please unlock it. It was probably getting alot of edits because she tragically died Dec 9. I think the interest has died down considerably. I'd like to edit her page to add her siblings names, her various business(wedding rings, jeans, perfumes,), and more info I read in her autobiography Unbreakable Thanks. 71.191.244.33 (talk) 08:05, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Mauritania

Hello,

please take the time to read my edits about Mauritania and note that all my claims are backed by easily verifiable sources. It is frustrating that my changes keep being undone by admins who don't know a thing about my country and insist on perpetuating a page full of lies and distortions. I am more than happy to elaborate but please help me correct some of the facts on this page

Respectfully,

Rossrocker09 and Gtwfan52's userpage

I am Tyler....Or whiskerzman as u may know me....i feel there has been a mistake...it did turn red! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Whiskerzman (talk • contribs) 21:01, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

On March 1st, User:Rossrocker09 edited User:Gtwfan52 here and twice edited User talk:Gtwfan52 here and here, after editing the user page once in February. This was all after Gtwfan52 reverted an edit he made and civilly conversed on the He was later blocked in part due to abuse of multiple accounts. Yesterday (earlier today in UTC), an IP trolled, it seems (I originally called it vandalism), the same page here. On my talk page, Gtwfan52 expressed concern that the IP is a sock, stating "the same person has made a remark like that on my user page" before, most likely a reference to Rossrocker09. Assuming this is true (which seems reasonable especially since that edit is the only one by that IP Special:Contribs/99.23.188.26), I'd like to know what action should be taken, should it happen again. Regards, Greengreengreenred 13:03, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Provisional reply (I don't see a full picture): wait for more IPs and list them somewhere if many - maybe we can rangeblock the IPs. If not, and the editing frequency is high, then semiprotection of the target pages. Otherwise we'll just keep reverting and blocking individual IPs.

Copernicium vs. cyclopentadien

I did your google book search, and there is exactly one book that references the Cp discussion, and it does not have a primary reference. All others are links to wikipedia, or reference wikipedia. Chemists would not be confused by the overlap, and and there are no IUPAC rules that would disallow overloading letters like that. In fact, there are multiple overlaps of this sort in the chemical literature. I just think we should stick to verifiable facts, and not make things up because it makes a good story.

Sorry to be insistent on this, but it's something that can be easily cleaned up if you'd stop deleting the edits, or reference your source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.198.67.60 (talk) 04:51, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't understand. Google books search for cyclopentadienyl Cp returns 30k+ hits [1]. Materialscientist (talk) 05:07, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Right, but that isn't why Copernicium could not be abbreviated Cp. The IUPAC naming rules are different for ligands and elements, and the abbreviations are allowe to overlap. Do your search with Ar and aromatic to prove that to yourself. But Argon is still abbreviated Ar, without confusion. It is known that cyclopentadienyl ligands are abbreviated Cp, that is a fact. But Copernicium could not be named Cp because Cp was used as an abbreviation for a different element, one that turned out not to really exist. The paragraph in question is right, If the sentence about Cp ligands is removed, like I tried to do originally. The sentence about Cp ligands is false, and should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.198.67.60 (talk) 20:50, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Ah, I see your point now. I have removed that sentence. Materialscientist (talk) 06:58, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

@71.198.67.60: Cp the element actually exists. It's just called Lu nowadays. :-) Double sharp (talk) 04:39, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

@Materialscientist: This is making me think. Since it seems that cyclopentadienyl was not a factor, that means that cassiopeium was the only reason for the rejection of Cp as a symbol for copernicium, right? So why was Fl approved for flerovium? It used to be an alternative symbol for fluorine. Cn was also a symbol for carolinium (which doesn't actually exist, but it's still a historical usage). Also it would make more sense to check for collisions with current usage rather than historical usage. Do they have a written policy on this? Double sharp (talk) 16:02, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

I know nothing about naming considerations - user:Stone might help, though he's been busy recently. I guess IUPAC evaluates the notability of past claims on a certain symbol (i.e. when a symbol can be considered as "taken"). Materialscientist (talk) 00:37, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Bottlenose dolphins images

Hi! Two days ago I've added two underwater images to bottlenose dolphins, but you've reverted my contribution with the reason "unclear value and purpose". The purpose of adding those images was to show a dolphin and pod of dolphins in there natural habitat, i.e. underwater. Dolphins live underwater, but 9 out of 10 images of the article shows them above the water (there is only one low-quality underwater image). Also most of the existing images shows only the head of a dolphin and there are no images of dolphins pods. Alex Vasenin (talk) 12:09, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Hi Materialscientist, I see that you made a hardblock to 121.54.44.128/26. Please consult with a CheckUser before making such blocks. I do see on the SPI that you could have mistaken DoRD's comment as saying it was ok to make block, but being effective does not mean that there is no collateral. Could you please ask directly about hardblocking a certain range next time please? Serveral other users were blocked as a result of this rangeblock, one who requested an unblock and got an IPBE. Thanks, -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 01:21, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Ugh, thanks. I do not hardblock IP ranges, and made this exception only because of the SPI comment (I figured that the person from that SPI was registering accounts from a third IP and then editing by those multiple accounts from 121.54.44.128/26). I also hoped that the range is too narrow for a significant collateral damage. Materialscientist (talk) 01:35, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

I apologize if my comment wasn't clear. What I meant was that your original block would have been effective except for the other (now blocked) IP they were using to create accounts. On the bright side, it doesn't look like they've created any new accounts since my previous check. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 02:19, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Photon

I have improved the image for clarity http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_Photon.png

What constitutes a valid reference? It is published on illusterati.com which I plan to grow to a site containing more such illustrations of concepts. Does illusterati.com constitute a valid reference? I have already added illusterati.com as the source in wikimedia commons.

This is not original research. If I drew a picture of a hammer and called it a hammer, would that be original research? :-)

This depiction is based on our current understanding of waves and the photon.

I searched the internet far and wide to find one good depiction of a photon which shows wavelength and frequency concepts clearly and did not find any, so I created it myself.

Black hole

Materialscientist, I'd like your opinion as an experienced administrator. I fielded a request to lower the protection level on Black hole to PC, and I decided that I'd try unprotecting it since it had been more than 3 years since it was protected. And already the vandalism has started. Do you think my decision was appropriate, or should I have been more concerned about the history? RockMagnetist (talk) 05:52, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

In short, this was a matter of personal judgement, and I would do the same because of the short protection history, with the last protection 3+ years ago. Setting pending changes has numerous subtle pros and cons, but I do not see a reason for any protection. It will take a few months to clarify the situation. Regards. PS Don't hesitate to ask - I did that a lot, and learned a lot, after passing my RFA :-). Materialscientist (talk) 06:23, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Your recent warnings.

Just thought I'd let you know that you seem to be forgetting to add a section for the month for some of your recent warnings. AnthonyJ Lock (talk) 10:32, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Forgot to mention that I fixed them up for you. AnthonyJ Lock (talk) 10:34, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

I often don't do that for the first one, because the chances are high that IP won't edit much. I also don't add it for users - they'll usually get blocked after several warnings. Materialscientist (talk) 10:35, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Correct me if i'm wrong but if you warn a user without creating a section for the month and for example Cluebot then has to revert one of the users edits it will default to warning level 1 and create a new section. AnthonyJ Lock (talk) 10:38, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

I don't know how warning levels are currently set up in ClueBot NG (talk · contribs), but experience tells you're wrong - see User_talk:217.177.92.37 for example. Materialscientist (talk) 10:45, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Hmm quite odd, well anyway I just figured I'd just double check to see if you were just accidentally forgetting them or not. AnthonyJ Lock (talk) 10:49, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Cluebot has a fairly short (just a few days) memory effect before re-starting at level 1, and "starting at level 1" always involves month-header. Technically, the bot's level-1 warning includes the header (rather than "create section and then add warning), so it isn't actually looking for an existing section for current month at all. It's broken behavior, many editors have complained about it for years, and the bot-wrangler refuses to even acknowledge that the restart-timeout might be too short or that month-header duplications are a problem (just "well yeah, that's how the bot is", was the impression I got). DMacks (talk) 11:39, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

(another TPS) I love ClueBot passionately, but this is an issue that has bothered me for a long time. It's not uncommon to encounter a user talk page with five, six or even more warnings in the same month, and I think it's absurd that this can't be corrected. If that bot's operator(s) won't fix it, surely vandalism should be enough of a concern for the WMF to devote some developer hours to devising either a fix or a replacement.

The latter, not the former, is an example of what I mean. What would you mean by "more substantial updates" – isn't updating old, non-standardized parameter names enough?

So... do you want to join me in watchlisting the article for recurrent problems, or would you prefer to put back the indefinite BLP semiprotection? Your call. Cheers, Jclemens (talk) 06:27, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

I did not mean any disrespect. This was part of a mass request at WP:RFP; I frankly had doubt about this particular one, and am watching the page. All that said, with all due respect, indef protection without any past protection history, applied to a poorly developed article (without any quirks like sensitive title or subject), is never warranted - can't defend it by any policy or logic. Materialscientist (talk) 06:33, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

Sure I can: BLP COATRACK material got stuck there by a new/anonymous editor, even three years after (2010) the initial attempts to add it (2007). If that's not persistent BLP attacks, I'm not sure what is. At any rate, I'd actually prefer we go back to Flagged Revisions level 1 for the article, but if you're also willing to watch it, it seems to be an entirely low-traffic article and very manageable. Jclemens (talk) 06:57, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

I would have it protected years ago, for a few months and then increment the protection time. You can possibly defend the 2010 protection, but not the need for indef protection now, after three extremely slow years. If the same attacks resume, then we'll have a good reason to reprotect. Regards. Materialscientist (talk) 07:15, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I can, and I just did. What is indefensible is the contra-BLP unilateral action you took to remove that protection that was specifically articulated as a BLP enforcement. Right now you are in violation of WP:BLPBAN. Please read that and note that the one-year limit is only for special enforcement actions on editors. What kept me from bringing this up before was 1) an attempt to reach a consensus with you, and 2) recognition of my own failure to Revdel the material (I was not an oversighter last time there was a problem with the article). However, in light of your ongoing failure to understand the primacy of BLP over the protection policy and the seriousness of serious BLP allegations being placed into this under-watched article, I must insist that your removal of protections be reversed--at which point you may take the issue to WP:AE for wider administrator input--or I will appeal your removal of my BLP full-protection to the arbitration committee; both actions as enumerated as the designated appeals process in WP:BLPBAN. Jclemens (talk) 19:27, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Hey, you are accusing me of violating something, whereas I was basically just trying to help at WP:RFP. Reprotect it as you wish and have a nice day. Materialscientist (talk) 22:16, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I should have articulated that option as well. Since WP:WHEEL has no particular time limit, I could have been accused of a "slow motion wheel war" had I done that without your consent. With it, I will do so. Jclemens (talk) 05:14, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Superhard materials

Hi Materialscientist,

it seems you were intimately involved with the article Superhard material, so I thought it appropriate to bring something to your attention.

I find some statements in the "definition and mechanics of hardness" section rather confusing, and others seem incorrect to me.

Now this could be because I am extrapolating concepts from metal hardness, but clarifying statements would be rather helpful to readers in any case.

I didn't edit the article itself, but left a note on the talk page (Talk:Superhard_material).

Thank you. Commutator (talk) 01:01, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

JBean65 (talk · contribs) wrote that article. I tried to fix it and will see what I can do further (time is short right now, and, frankly, hardness is not my favorite topic). Materialscientist (talk) 01:11, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

I understand. My own (recent) contributions to Wikipedia have been limited to "complaining" on talk / user pages to draw the attention of experts to articles in need of fixing. It is a shame, and I wish I could do more, but I just haven't found time to make substantial edits myself and this allows me to contribute to the project in some (minor) way.

Question

Hi Materialscientist, you were helpful when I had a previous question about bot reports at AIV. Could you give me a heads up on whether a report like this requires a block? It doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary, but it was being reported by the bots. Thanks, Spencer^T♦C 01:51, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Depends on the bot. Mr.Z-bot (talk · contribs) reports anyone who triggers an edit filter that was added to User:Mr.Z-bot/filters.js. Filters differ by the "quality" and target - some warrant immediate block, some do not. Fixed position vandalism may be something very nasty or may be just an experiment. For me, the criteria are (i) whether the target is a template (very suspicious), mainframe article (suspicious) or own userspace (not really); and (ii) what they were trying to achieve. Point (ii) is often hard to see behind the code. The embedded image (search for .jpg/.svg/.png) and its size (if it is oversized then it is likely an attempt to mask the page by that image) provide a hint. Presence of an http link in the code may be a sign of hijacking attempt. For example, add a transparent oversized image of anything, link that image to some external page, and then any click on that page will take the reader away to some website.

Thulium

Hi,

I noticed that this edit removed a lot of content that was useful (for instance, the isotope information). I also noticed you made a few copyedits, so I didn't revert it for the time being. But why the removal?

^King Jakob _C2 11:37, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

I haven't removed isotope information, but changed the order of paragraphs (not sure about that, but it felt better). Other removed information was either repeating the infobox, or not verifiable. The neutron reflector para was misplaced (not an application) and too vague (actually WP:OR). I first thought to integrate it into properties, but then just removed. Thulium is too rare for making reflectors out of it (they have to be massive). Materialscientist (talk) 11:43, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

What parts were not verified? I made sure to add citations for everything I put in. ^King Jakob _C2 22:28, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

I could not verify the alpha (tetragonal) phase in the literature. It was absent in the cited CRC source. The rest was more or less Ok, just some sources were unreliable. Materialscientist (talk) 22:33, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

The block template accepts various time formats, and we often give them as xxx months or xxx weeks, and the wikisoftware converts them to these funny numbers (considering the exact months of the year). I guess it was 16 months in this case. Materialscientist (talk) 13:05, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

I've been asked to shorten my block of 71.75.246.167 (talk · contribs · 71.75.246.167 WHOIS). S/he was blocked after this gem. I suspect it's a dynamic IP on long-term assignment to a school. I've told the admin who is handling the request that I'll defer to you. Your comments would be appreciated. Toddst1 (talk) 00:59, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

I'd agree that this IP is either assigned to school or used by pupils. It has a history of abuse and warnings, thus a long block is justified. The length is up to the blocking admin. I'd anonblock for a month and then increment. Cheers. Materialscientist (talk) 01:11, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

Though the WHOIS says "Allocations for this OrgID serve Road Runner residential customers out of the Columbus, OH, Herndon, VA and Raleigh, NC RDCs." What indicates that it's from a school? -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:47, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

Nothing, just a hunch :-) (I don't know if this is a school IP). We have very poor information on most IPs - I know several clusters that are school IPs (from other locators), but contain nothing on that in whois. I also suspect they copy/paste a template over the entire range even if some IPs in it are assigned to something else. Materialscientist (talk) 01:59, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

It's behavioral. Think WP:DUCK. After you've seen a few hundred static IPs that are resolving as registered to school districts, the pattern is pretty easy to spot. Both MatSci and I have blocked hundreds if not thousands of registered schools.

One of the most obvious data points is that Geolocates to Waxhaw, NC. There apparently isn't much in Waxhaw, but schools are everywhere. IPs with a sustained history of sophmoric vandalism over weeks or months, especially within a band of a few hours on different days/weeks during school/detention hours, from the middle of nowhere are usually schools or libraries.

In short, it looks like a sticky dynamic IP address assigned to a school or library (not much difference really).Toddst1 (talk) 02:58, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

Speed of light

Thank you for providing clarification on this. I'm not sure exactly at what point research becomes eligible for inclusion; for example, the Wikipedia article on the Higgs Boson states that it was "tentatively confirmed to exist on 14 March 2013", since although everything that has been discovered so far is consistent with the properties such a particle might possess, researchers themselves acknowledged that much work remains before the particle’s exact nature can be determined. And the Wikipedia article on Life on Mars seems quite speculative, stating, for example that "the best potential locations for discovering life on Mars may be at subsurface environments that have not been studied yet." The article on Wave-particle duality has an extensive section on alternative views, freely acknowledging that while the equations seem to work, there is controversy over the science, something that now also appears to be the case with the constant c.

Hence all three of the Wikipedia articles I have cited above appear, prima facie, to fail the conventional rigorous tests for scientific proof, making asertions that some might consider tenuous at best. There apppear to be countless other examples. For consistency, I think you would have to delete huge swathes of all of these articles, too, something that I would not be in favour of. Where there is controversy in the science, from respected sources, as part of the factual description of that science, an encyclopaedia should acknowledge this.

Hence, in the case of the speed of light, these two completely separate papers, both with the backing of respected institutions like the Max Planck Institute, are just as consistent with the science as the aforementioned examples. The second paper, in particular, is merely an extension of currently generally accepted Quantum level mechanisms, and is as consistent with empirical evidence as the current state of play in the hunt for the boson. Experimental results support the hypothesis. Thus at what point would it be appropriate to cite new research? Is it at the stage of peer review? How much experimental evidence is needed? I would be grateful for your considered feedback. David cambridge (talk) 10:57, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

We need indication that this new theory is accepted by the broad scientific community, preferably in secondary sources. You have cited two primary sources, published in a minor journal (EPJD, impact factor 1.5). Science News is just a mirror of the original articles (lay summary), and can not be counted as a secondary sources in this case. Before including new theories, especially in a major, "featured" article like Speed of light, it is always a good idea to start a thread on its talk first, proposing an inclusion, and wait for reaction. If no reply, WT:PHYS is a good alternative venue. Materialscientist (talk) 11:38, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

That thread will be archived by the bot shortly, and thus I'd better reply here - the advice given to you was correct in general, but not in this particular case, where one editor re-created an article within a short period, received a final warning not to do so, and stopped. No further action was necessary after that. Cheers. Materialscientist (talk) 01:43, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm noting here just for the record that TParis (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) creation protected the page. Vacation9 02:17, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

speedy on all counts?

I fail to see how the user page, user name and or anything else should remain -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Barbie_Girl_%281997%29_Song any thoughts? sats 08:23, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Greek museums

Hi. A few editors are going through some Greek museums I mass stubbed a few years back and I trust them to assess whether or not the museums are valid or duds. Cartoon Museum is a dud, I created it and it has barely been edited since. I'll redirect it to the British museum, but there might be others which just need deletion, I'm sure Hoverfish and others will comment here if necessary and let you know which need to be deleted. I'm not sure I could db-author any of them so can you make it easier and just delete when requested rather than waste time with an AFD? I trust their judgement on it. ♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 13:44, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi Materialscientist, during the initial cleaning of the Greek museum stubs in which Dr.Blofeld helped me with db-authoring, I had left some (which I did not include in the List of museums in Greece) for possible future clues that never came. Now Bleaney is doing a de-orphaning round and brings them all in the list along with similar articles created by other users that also need a thorough checking. I will be bringing to your attention only the ones mentioned above by Blofeld. Two such that I am completely sure have to go are Modern History Museum of Volos City and Macedonian Historical Museum. I will be back with a few more soon. Thank you. Hoverfish Talk 14:14, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
