New Page Triage engagement strategy released

Hey guys!

I'm dropping you a note because you filled out the New Page Patrol survey, and indicated you'd be interested in being contacted about follow-up work. This is to notify you that we've finally released both the initial documentation about the project and also the engagement strategy, which sets out how we plan to work with the community on this. Please give both a read, and leave any comments or suggestions you have on the talkpage, on my talkpage, or in my inbox - okeyeswikimedia.org.

It's awesome to finally get to start work on this! :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 02:08, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please block this person.

I respectfully suggest that you are too nice. Take a look at this guy's history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/207.197.96.120 - warning after warning. Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 03:43, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're correct that there is a pattern of behavior there. However, the editor has not edited in the last ~~two~~ 1+ days. Given that this is an anonymous IP address and could be used by any number of users, it would be rare to block except during active vandalism or abuse. I will keep an eye on that IP, but unless there is an active issue there is little to do. Please feel free to bring any future issues to me though! Thanks, and happy editing! --Tgeairn (talk) 04:13, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

An explanation for my Blanking

Hi Tgeairn! Thanks for the quick response to my clearing; sorry I didn't make that more clear in the Edit Summary. This page was for the University of Michigan Wikipedians Organization's Trivia Night. We realized, though, that the answers were available online! We didn't want to have them available in a google search so I cleared it. Sorry again! Thanks for being so diligent though. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pixor (talk • contribs) 01:04, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problems... I saw that you came back through and made the page into a welcome/signup page. Have fun, and (as always) Happy Editing! --Tgeairn (talk) 01:07, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Heroes 6

What I wrote is true. However, i'm not familiar with the referencing modality. I know were are the source : it's on the ubi forums, you just have to look on the change log of the version : no mention of ai, balance and many bugs fixing.

Also, i'm somewhat disappointed by the reception section : it doesn't state how this game is a disappointment for most people that bought it, and the poor reception it has on the forums. The section only describe the critics point of view : critics that are more biased than consumers ( because sometime payed to give good rating), or that played the games only a few hour and rushed their critics. You can find most people that have played this game for months on many forums, especially this one (the biggest community) : http://heroescommunity.com/. I have yet to see someone that isn't disappointed by the games on those forums, which was not the case with any previous installment of the game.

Thanks. Anonymous_carl. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.230.144.8 (talk) 02:07, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thanks for following up. As an editor on Wikipedia, I don't have an opinion as to whether or not the text you added to Might & Magic Heroes VI is true. What is important here is that material added to the encyclopedia is verifiable and reliably sourced. If you have a web link to a source from Ubisoft that "x was not yet fixed", then use that as a citation for your statement. If you need help getting started with citing sources, check out this article. If your source is a UbiSoft changelog, then you might be able to say something like "Ubisoft did not list any AI improvements in patch version X.XX" and then cite the changelog.

Regarding the reception section, the point you make is one that often arises. Again though, this project is about verifiable facts, not opinions from non-reliable sources (such as forums).

I hope this helps, please let me know if I can answer anything else. Happy Editing! --Tgeairn (talk) 02:20, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Here I have the link to the upcoming 1.3 patch and the other upcoming patches as proof. I don't know how to put that as reference. http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php/660743-Heroes-6-Patch-Communication-(starting-with-the-patch-1-3)?s=9cde193fc8f2655afdc3d0591d556533. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.230.144.8 (talk) 02:17, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

To use the link you provided, put the following reference code into the article

Leslie Cochran

Thanks, or not, for killing a minor tribute to Leslie. Please advise on how to cite "folk wisdom" as the add was clearly labeled. 72.195.138.84 (talk) 03:02, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thank you for asking. As an encyclopedia, content in this project should be verifiable and reliably sourced. If you can find a reliable source for the statement, then feel free to add it (sourced, of course). It is not impossible to source "folk wisdom", for instance there are any number of reliable sources about folk stories surrounding George Washington. The wisdom doesn't have to be true in a true or false sense, but there needs to be a source saying that the folk wisdom exists as such. Thanks, and happy editing! --Tgeairn (talk) 03:14, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Eva Longoria

I cited all my information on her relationship page, now. Sorry about not doing so earlier. I hope they all actually work; i've never done anything like that before! :D — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chasezgurl28 (talk • contribs) 06:40, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A kitten for you!

Thank you for letting me know that my article did not have a reference and that biographies need at least one reference. I appreciate it!

About Talk:Columbo history

T., regarding this[1] (in case you didn't see my reply)...please see here[2] to get some general history. There's a reason I've been engaging User:B3430715.—Djathinkimacowboy 05:26, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for replying here. I did see your response, and I have been watching the various exchanges between editors at Qwyrxian (talk) and other talk pages. I understand that you feel a need to continue to engage, but that is almost always a good time to go work on something else for a bit. I am not endorsing any editor's position, just saying that things are getting personal and it may be time to get back to a content based discussion. As you know, there are a variety of means to get a dispute resolved, including WP:ANB and WP:DISPUTE. The goal here is "Wikipedia:Staying cool when the editing gets hot". Thanks again for taking the time to respond here, and happy editing! --Tgeairn (talk) 05:39, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A gracious reply to me, Cheers for that. Your words are not wasted. In fact I am presently enjoying the perusal of Amazon! Also I am truly glad you came along to the talk to remind us we need to discuss content.—Djathinkimacowboy 05:42, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I need a Response

I realize the above mentioned articles, which according to Alan Liefting, were going to be eliminated, already I discussed with, because newly it began to realize them and already he was saying to myself that they were going to be eliminate you, now you say to me that it should not eliminate them because they are going to block me, please, put in agreement and so to do. I wait for his response--Hernan1483 (talk) 03:10, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I apologize. I did not realize that you were the original creator of those pages. I have since flagged them as "blanked by creator", which should resolve the issue. Again, I apologize for the warning that went onto your talk page, and I will correct that now. Thanks, and happy editing! --Tgeairn (talk) 03:13, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is no problem, though lamentably I will not be able to edit them: (, since well I began to do them today, Alan I think that they were inclined to Speedy deletion and after an unnecessary discussion, since anyhow Alan Liefting was not going to change opinion in the matter and was going to eliminate them I itself erased, I wait to be able to edit them hereinafter. Forgive anyhow!!--Hernan1483 (talk) 03:21, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
