Shomrim

I am new to Wikipedia and don't understand why my edits to Shomrim are taken down. please undo my edit and take off the inapropriate content because im not sure what that is. Thank you so much. JoelBuchbinder (talk) 01:43, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

I took down your edits because the majority of the edit seemed to read in a non-neutral pattern. You may wish to read up on the neutral point of view, which I jut linked to. --I dream of horses (T) @ 01:49, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

I re-edited and I hope to have done so correctly this time. If you find something wrong please let me know. and ,if you could, just revise it and please don't delete the whole thing.

removing edits concerning air crash investigations and qualifying them as third class spam

Someone (AndyTheGrump) is accusing me of putting information about aircraft investigations as third class spam mail on wikipedia. This is outrageous and completely ridiculous. I am an aviation specialist, I was general manager of large airports (among others Schiphol-Amsterdam), a professor in economics (graduated Erasmus University Rotterdam, 1973))and a consultant for many governments world wide (a.o. Netherlands, Indonesia, Chad, Philippines) on issues regarding aviation. I am a registered transport consultant at the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank.I can proof that on every account. The problem with aviation accidents is that every country makes it own report of the accident, many are not in English, not all use metric systems. Many reports are not easy to obtain, or simply (against all international rules) not available. This is very frustrating for people working in this field. Everybody likes to avoid the mistakes others made. Not everybody is American, there are also Asians, Africans, Russians, etc. who are entitled to the same knowledge as you and me. For this reason we publish for many years these reports all in the same style and the same format and all in English. This makes comparison easy. Aviation security and safety is not a joke. Because we are talking over small series and the information has to be available for many years we found the solution in publishing them as print in demand by lulu.com. I do not see what is wrong with this. Publishing via a normal publisher means that the series are too large, the books become too expensive (especially for third world countries) and after a certain time the publication is no more available. You should appreciate what we do instead of insulting us. You think we make any money out of this? Think about translation costs, not everybody works for free. This way you do not help wikipedia, but you are a stumble block. You are probably some kind of Johnny the Selfkicker.

@AndyTheGrump and Orientaldecorations: Regarding the above, what you did across a number of articles was a promotional activity. Plainly, that's spamming.--Jetstreamer ^Talk 14:28, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

I think you don't get it. Since when is literature referring to a specific subject spam or promotion? That is plain nonsense. If that is your simplistic idea you should leave all references and all notes out, mind you they can all be fake!! I doubt you have an academic education otherwise you would know that.If there is a plane crash those concerned need to know what is done about it. In many cases similar problems cause similar accidents. All our books give nothing else then the original text of the official investigation report in English and in the same format, for comparison purposes, we do not add something, neither do we leave anything out. How do you think someone from Nairobi or from Irkuts or Ouagadougou can get hold of a copy of a Russian or Indian or Mongolian investigation report? There is no Russian or some official from Sierra Leona that will ever send you that. Our books go back to 1980, you have no idea how primitive those old reports are. The books are copy-righted to a Dutch public foundation by the name Sagip Kabayan, registered at the Chamber of Commerce in 's Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, under number : 17282016. You can check that out.

(Orientaldecorations (talk) 14:57, 29 September 2014 (UTC)).

If the material in the books consists only of "nothing else then the original text of the official investigation report", any claim to hold the copyright to it is clearly invalid. AndyTheGrump (talk) 17:01, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of "The Lady in Scarlet"

Thank you for the notification. I do intend that the page "The Lady in Scarlet" be deleted. A more appropriate name is "The Lady in Scarlet (1935 film)", by which it's known on YouTube and elsewhere and found in Google searches (no searches resulted in the former name being found). I created the latter page just before your notification and transferred the contents of the earlier page to it. Akld guy (talk) 21:34, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Deleted article

Hi,

my article on Kim André Arnesen was deleted, and I wonder what the reasons are, and if the article lacked anything to keep it on Wikipedia.

--Pullmeover (talk) 23:13, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

The article was deleted because you didn't state why the person was important. --I dream of horses (T) @ 01:19, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

OK, the person is one of Norway´s talented music composers with publications also in the US, and has a release on the several times Grammy-nominated record label 2L. You mind if a make the article again? --Pullmeover (talk) 02:18, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

You don't "inherit" notability--all because the record label is notable doesn't mean the artist is. It's probably not a good idea to make the article again. I dream of horses (T) @ 02:21, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

Hello! Leaving a message/question about an addition I made to a page

Hello! I added the information about Grayson McCouch, his part in Gotham. How on Wiki would I have done that to link to Gotham and the font/color change? Is there also a way that I could change my user name? What is good to view for Wiki info? Paula Benedetto (talk) 00:48, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

You can link something with two brackets (like [[this]]), and it'll change the color, but not the font.

The statue is missing...if you don't feel that is pertinent, I'd like to know why, since it's one of the FIRST things people read on the page.

I was about to upload a photo to depict the fact, which again, I guess YOU wouldn't find constructive?

1995 Nebraska Cornhuskers Page

It appears that the page is frozen to edit by a bot to the point where any edit (regardless of relevance) is removed automatically. Please allow for the edit to be made regarding the team being regarded as one of the greatest of all time. I'd argue this is constructive information, as it provides an understanding as to the skill level in a concise point. They are regarded by many to this extent, and that is indeed a fact. Enough with the robo-messages as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.61.117.3 (talk) 2:52, October 1, 2014 (UTC)

Follow Up On 1995 Huskers Page

Forgive me for the assumption, but it seemed strange that the additions were removed literally less than one minute from being added. The characteristics of your message notification also lead me to that assumption strongly.

It seems that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what a fact denotes. If a large group of individuals state "A", then the fact is that they stated "A". This has no bearing on whether or not "A" is (in fact) true or false. Therefore, declaring that on a Wikipedia page clearly involves a fact, and it does not warrant removal. If you felt that it could have been more clear of the fact that this is a declaration that people state, then you could have modified it accordingly rather than falsely accusing me of page vandalism. That's a gross misuse of authority over a Wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.61.117.3 (talk) 04:23, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

76.160.180.127 (talk) 05:06, 1 October 2014 (UTC)Hello "I dream of horses"

I've just noticed that you deleted my comment on "World News". I have a question for you, would you trust a news network that is partial? I do believe that this network is no long impartial, and is no longer in the era of Peter Jennings, who used to report IMPORTANT events, whether he liked the policy surrounding it or not, he was indeed a Reporter. Just think about it for a minute or so, "reporters" have chosen the path to report, not the one to be "pleasers to the general public or government". Personally, I believe it is important. After all it is called "World News", and if you may take some time please note that at least a third of the time is dedicated to commercials, a sixth of the time is dedicated to "world news" (except if something \really bad happens abroad), 7 percent is dedicated to gossip, and then we get at least another 7 percent of the time dedicated to the squirrel/bear/panda/kangaroo/infant being born.... you know what I mean!

At the end of the day, news shall be news, independant and sharp. Therefore, and since Wikipedia is an impartial website, I am asking you to do the rght thing, which is to leave my comment.

PS: 1st time commentng, not sure about the IP thing, but still Upon checkingmy post, why are there 2 references below my post, one is about a ".org", the other one is about harassment? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.160.180.127 (talk) 05:22, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

As for your first question, okay, you might think the network is partial, but others might think differently. That's because you're stating an opinion, and not a fact.

The links are the result of people using <ref></ref> tags on this talk page. I dream of horses (T) @ 05:44, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Question on removed external link

Hi I dream of horses, You removed a row with an external link I added to the NoSQL page "because it seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia." I see now that none of the other companies listed have external links the the company websites, but as there's no current article on wikipedia about my company, and as according to the guidelines, I can't add a new article about it, can I have the same content there and just no external link? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Azanebrain (talk • contribs) 17:38, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

We're new to the Wikipedia and I was just creating a page for our site and you've already marked it up for deletion. Why is that? That sites sells NOTHING, it's a NOT FOR PROFIT organization that serves all tennis facilities, tennis manufacturers, and tennis players as a resource. It's mind blowing that you would mark it as up for deletion without even checking the site. That is a INFORMATION site, not selling anything or promoting anything. I see many other online tennis provider companies here and they are actually taking money for their services. PlayTennisTIA (talk) 16:54, 2 October 2014 (UTC)PlayTennisTIA

Publius Enigma

Hi, I have been following the Publius Enigma since 1994 in alt.music.pink-floyd as I am a regular visitor and poster there. Unless you are a historian on the subject, please do not undo my edits. The Publius Enigma has been long exposed as a hoax. Today it continues to attract mentally unstable people, and for this reason it's unethical to propagate false hope regarding it's existence. Certain mentally unwell people do not have the insight to accept this fact. Please do not make out the puzzle to be a mystery thereby attracting the hoax to more mentally unstable people.

That is illogical and does not follow. It works the other way around. If the source is legitimate, the onus of references is on the person to demonstrate so. Until then, it's nothing more than a hoax. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.78.42.30 (talk) 07:38, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

The onus is on you to identify and insert a reliable reference saying that it's a hoax. I dream of horses (T) @ 07:45, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

That's ridiculous. For one, giving information on the hacker who posted it is a very stupid thing to do. Also, the Publius was a hacker and their true identity is concealed.

A Beginner's Request

Hello! I am Adwaith H Sivam from India. I am THIRTEEN-year-old beginner and I wishes to create a user page. Well... the problem is that I don't know how to create a good page. I kindly request your help.

You don't need to have a "good" user page. Just talking about who you are (don't say how old you are), what you are interested in, where you plan to edit, and how fluent you are in English and other languages. --I dream of horses (T) @ 18:02, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

You reverted my edits.

You are wrong

Dear Dream of Horses,

It has come to my attention that you are far too busy dreaming of horses to acknowledge the valid contributions I made to this fine establishments page. I am a local historian and my speciality is Goucher college. I am certain that all the information I provided is fully valid as well as intriguing. My basis for these claims is my degree in University studies for Goucher college, the information I provided can be found in my book Goucher College, the Havard of Towson Maryland. My book will be released next month and can be purchased at Barnes and Noble or wherever books are sold.

Thank you in advance for including my text in the description of the school,

Keep riding horses (;

Inserting praise and criticism on article

Hi! I saw that you reverted a section on EITI called "praise". I am aware that an article should not be promotional, but there is also a section on criticism, therefore I do not understand why there should not be one reporting on the positive feedback of an organisation. Thanks for your feedback. --Chberger (talk) 13:04, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

In my opinion, depending on how well-sourced the criticism section is, it should either be removed, or integrated into the rest of the article. --I dream of horses (T) @ 21:17, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Understanding advertising and promotion

As a high school communications teacher I think there are many benefits to contextual learning and I am interested in integrating this in my classroom.

I am emaciated and weigh 115 pounds because and I live alone and I often can't prepare food or lift food to my mouth. Sometimes I have to empty the left and right hand drawers of my desk and put bag of ice in each drawer and my arms on them and a plastic trash can below each to catch the melt. Voice recognition software is. It's expensive and is only about 80-90 percent accurate and requires constant use of the keyboard and mouse. I live on $700 a month social security and sometimes I don't eat for the last few days of the month.

I just wanted to add Nardi Elettrodomestici to this Wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_of_Italy

The style of writing was as neutral as the others (SMEG - ARISTON - ALESSI...), probably less arch then the other texts. Why did you find it inappropriate? About the sources I indicated Nardi's company profile and the web site, what's the problem? I would like you tell me how I can complete this page with an other important Italian Company which has been selling and producing in Italy for more than 50 years.

I took a look at this new article after a link was inserted in the Art Students League of New York page. Much of the text appears to be copied from the artist's own gallery website. There are some NYT article and other outside source references, and the subject appears to be notable. But there is a lot of puff-piece promotional language and other questionable stuff.

Hello--

Apologies if my recent contributions did not meet your criteria. I admit being somewhat puzzled. Links provided were to strictly non-commercial sites providing information relevant to the topic. Other approved links were to quite similar, albeit commercial sites: Anime News Network, IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, etc. I am curious as to the distinction being made. Thank you.

Added more citations on J. Shimon & J. Lindemann page - thoughts?

Hi! I worked further on the citations on the J. Shimon & J. Lindemann biographical article adding more references for the content, a photo, cleaning up inconsistencies in formatting, deleting extraneous detail that I could not footnote. I also was able to link it to another article so I believe it is no longer an "orphan". I would appreciate any further guidance to resolve all issues.

Deb Debra Brehmer (talk) 23:22, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Actually, given that the article is only linked to from one other article, it's probably best to keep the orphan tag up. But I'd say it's pretty well-referenced and cleaned up now. --I dream of horses (T) @ 00:25, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

Technically, you could just remove the orphan tag now, but 3-5 articles, in my opinion, is good.

I am also a Law student, and thus hate false statements. Whatever I have changed, it is removing the false statements.

About my recent vote for *keep* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Thomas_Eric_Duncan

About my recent vote for *keep* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Thomas_Eric_Duncan which you apparently deleted for "not being constructive" . I'm baffled, first because I thought that was a page specifically to post one's opinion about that, which I did, explaining why and then because I can't imagine what would be "constructive" instead. If anything, I find not too constructive other opinions based on Mr Duncan's having been important just for *one* reason. I wonder how Lee Harvey Oswald got his own page then, instead of being merged in the "USA President Killers" one. Which means: besides the quantity of actions or events, weighting should be applied according to the importance or merit of such actions. Thanks for your time. Juan M.

Fish

Hey, you may not realize it, but I notice you keep making non-constructive reverts the "My Bride is Mermaid" page. Your reverts appear to constitute vandalism and I just wanted to warn you that Administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism. I assuming it was perhaps a good faith edit or maybe you are simply unaware that fish are part of the animal kingdom?

• Animal: 1. A sentient living organism typically capable of voluntary motion and sensation: distinguished from plants.

• Meat: 1. The flesh of animals used as food, most often the flesh of mammals as opposed to fish or fowl. 2. The edible part of anything. 3. Anything eaten for nourishment, as in meat and drink.

While some religions allow the eating of fish when prohibiting the eating of meat, this does not change the scientific definition of meat, which is the muscle of flesh of an animal.

In the future, if you are uncertain about an edit (or fact) instead of simply making the mistake of reverting said edit, instead use the "talk page" of the article to ask about it. Thank you! 199.180.166.145 (talk) 06:08, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

1) How do I cite a previously cited reference source when editing, without creating a new item in the bibliography?

2) What scripting language is used to edit wiki pages? I mean the conventions of formatting the text with symbols, are they HTML?

Thanks :)

Code16 (talk) 03:34, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

1. You give the reference a "name" the first time, and just use the "name" when you use the reference again. More information can be found here.
2. The language we use is called "MediaWiki". I dream of horses (T) @ 05:26, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi there,

I think you made a mistake in judging my contribution as not constructive. These usages of words like "Harish Chandra" (which can be better quoted as King Harish Chandra), and "Hatim Tai" have been a part of local language in the heartland of Hindi-speaking geography.

Hi thanks I found this: Authors, editors, journalists, filmmakers, photographers, artists, architects, and other creative professionals:

• The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.
• The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique.
• The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.
• The person's work (or works) either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) has won significant critical attention, or (d) is represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.

I was writing about the Global Shapers Foundation; an initiative from the World Economic Forum, and my page got deleted. What were the criteria that was made for deleting the post?

This is the link for your reference! http://www.globalshapers.org/

Thank you very much in advance!

I nominated the page for deletion, and Deb deleted it, because we thought the page was an ad instead of an encyclopedia page. --I dream of horses (T) @ 23:50, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

swami devananda

Respected Sir, You recently considered my page for speedy deletion but you can verify about this person in google. You can also search for swami devananda in google and visit divine life society for more details. He has more then 50,000 devotees in northern Andhra Pradesh, India. And suggest me what should I do to create this page successfully.

Thank You. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yekanth Ram (talk • contribs) 10:04, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

I nominated the pages you created for deletion, and Gillam and Deb deleted them, because they didn't show why they were significant enough to be in Wikipedia. You may know that we have standards for the pages we have here, and by clicking on the blue text in this sentence, you can learn more about them. --I dream of horses (T) @ 00:13, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Welcoming users

I noticed that you left a welcome message on the talk page of User:NCAA 22 (take a look at the user page) and I think you might have done that for others in the series. If you notice them again with the NCAA or UAAP name, and they have created a user page that has to do with basketball, mainly in the Philippines, can you report them as sockpuppets. Thanks.

Okay, I thought it was a bit odd but was assuming good faith. I dream of horses (T) @ 00:06, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Everyone says that "their" page is not an advertisement, whether or not the page is an ad. Wikipedia is for artists that already quite well-known. You may want to look at our conflict of interest policies. I dream of horses (T) @ 00:02, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Your welcome message to DiffuseGoose

Hello I dream of horses. Thank you for your welcome message, and for your offer to answer questions.

I do research unrelated to wikipedia that has me reading through old newspapers (usually google news archives). I often come across interesting articles unrelated to what I am looking for, and then get sidetracked as I head to wikipedia to see what other info I can find. I recently decided I should take the opportunity to add those references to the relevant articles.

Today I came across a reference that I'm not sure how to (or whether to) incorporate into the wikipedia page. The reference is a 1969 article about Woody Hayes (the football coach) discussing the My Lai massacre at a sports banquet, saying something along the lines that all those men, woman and children deserved to die. That's stronger than the actual statement, here's the link (the quote is at the bottom of the second column): http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1144&dat=19691212&id=Es4bAAAAIBAJ&sjid=fVAEAAAAIBAJ&pg=7306,5888738

I looked for information about that on Hayes' page and see no mention of it. It would seem to naturally belong in the controversies section, with text drawing a connection to his interest in military history (which also seems only lightly covered) and pro-war beliefs. But, I can't really say his statements were considered controversial at the time he made them. According to the writer, the audience approved.

Would it be appropriate to add a short paragraph with that reference? Or not? (I'm not trying to sling mud) If it's not appropriate, what specifically is the reason? It certainly isn't relevant to his primary career. But he did have a secondary career as a military historian.

Trying to get a feel for what's proper. Thanks in advance for any guidance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DiffuseGoose (talk • contribs) 00:56, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

It's actually better to integrate controversy section within the rest of the article. However, keeping it there as a sign of an article that's "in progress" is sort of okay. If you are uncertain about adding the paragraph, maybe you can ask on the talk page of the article. I dream of horses (T) @ 01:33, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks. I will add it to the article's talk page. I didn;t realize there was such a thing.DiffuseGoose (talk) 02:23, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
