NDE Rescue

Hello MrX, I just asked a question in my talk page that is related to your comment about my contributions. Could you please review it and let me know what should be done ? Stratboy61 (talk) 10:04, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK. I will respond on your talk page.- Mr X 14:54, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reminder

Mark your CSD pages as patrolled. :P Charlie the Pig (talk) 18:22, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Charlie the Pig, but I don't need reminding because I intentionally don't mark CSDs as patrolled as I explained to you on August 30. I'm happy to debate the merits of my NPP methodology in comparison with yours, but please don't post reminders for something that is a matter of personal discretion. Thank you.- Mr X 18:37, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello.

Hello, Excuse me. I'm sorry if my English is poor. I have some question, How the external links I added are inappropriate?

Thank you. Harunatomomi (talk) 16:17, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Harunatomomi. Welcome to Wikipedia. The first and third links seem to be social media profiles on a microblog. The second seems to be a fan page. None of these are good links per WP:ELNO. An appropriate link would be something like this, which you have already used as a reference.- Mr X 16:26, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notability issue in P2PSP article

Hello,

I have added some reliable sources for this article P2PSP (Springer International Publishing and W3C). Is it enough in order to remove the notability tag?

I just discovered the english version of the article and I would like to improve it (a spanish version is already available).

Thanks!

Cristóbal Medina López (talk) 18:22, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cristóbal Medina López. Thanks for adding those sources, however my concerns about notability remain. This seems to be a pretty obscure subject, found only in a couple of white papers. The Spanish article is not much better. I also see that you're an author of both sources so please keep WP:COI in mind. - Mr X 19:35, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MrX Ok, I understand the issue. Maybe I'm not a neutral editor for this article. I saw it in Wikipedia (I didn't create this article) and I felt that I should improve it. As you can see it's not a problem for me to use my real name. Sorry for the inconvenience. I'm new at this. Thanks for your help! Cristóbal Medina López (talk) 08:47, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Verifiability in BLP's

On multiple occasions now, you've restored content at Fiorina and Biden which is either unsourced or unsupported by the sources provided. WP:BLP is pretty clear that the burden of evidence resides with the editor restoring content when sourcing is in doubt.CFredkin (talk) 18:39, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not aware that I've done that. Can you give some examples with diffs?- Mr X 18:42, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sure... here, here, and here.CFredkin (talk) 18:51, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

1st Diff: Content: "The provision is intended to increase the options of young adults and protect them against the high cost of medical bills after serious accidents or illness."; Source says: "Fortunately, since the rollout of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), young adults now have more health insurance options than before. ... people under age 26 may also choose to enroll in their parent's plan,....Most plans let parents pay dependent coverage using pretax dollars, further reducing the cost.... you may qualify for a tax credit that reduces the cost of ACA plan coverage." - Source: Huffington Post
2nd Diff: How is this an example of "restor[ing] content at Fiorina and Biden which is either unsourced or unsupported by the sources provided"?; I removed quote mining and content that I believe is WP:UNDUE. That's not restoring unsourced content.
3rd Diff: I restored the version before your bold edits (except for a minor grammatical correction), for reasons that explained in my edit summary and on the talk page. I simply followed WP:BRD. Please discuss your specific concerns on the article talk page.- Mr X 19:28, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Take it to ANI

I do not choose to engage with you on my talk page, as far as I can tell your concerns amount to nothing more than not liking the outcome of a decision. Feel free to take it to ANI, as I suggested, that's the place to get independent review. Guy (Help!) 17:47, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what your talking about. There has been no "outcome of a decision" for me to not like. The move discussion is ongoing, and trending to no consensus. Since this involves your use of admin tools, and you refuse to discuss that, I think the appropriate avenue would be for me to file a request at Arbcom. - Mr X 17:54, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

How do you know? You haven't tried yet. ANI is thataway -----> Guy (Help!) 18:02, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:IDENTITY is being revisited: How should Wikipedia refer to transgender individuals before and after their transition?

You are being contacted because you contributed to a recent discussion of MOS:IDENTITY that closed with the recommendation that Wikipedia's policy on transgender individuals be revisited.

Two threads have been opened at the Village Pump:Policy. The first addresses how the Manual of Style should instruct editors to refer to transgender people in articles about themselves (which name, which pronoun, etc.). The second addresses how to instruct editors to refer to transgender people when they are mentioned in passing in other articles. Your participation is welcome.

paraphrase

Hi dude could you plz paraphrase this? "stiff illustrations". YOU CAN be guided by original text is : ____ A Fierce Bad Rabbit fails for this reason, and for its overt moralizing and stiff illustrations.____ Alborzagros (talk) 14:19, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"wooden drawings", "lifeless illustrations", or maybe "catatonic bunnies".- Mr X 14:27, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

thank you my friend your answer helped me very much. Alborzagros (talk) 14:39, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome! - Mr X 14:40, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MrX

MrX I see you are an adopter.Can you adopt me?I'm young and I think I need a mentor.-angelz (talk) 19:51, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ainsleykg. Welcome to Wikipedia.

First some advice: please don't add personal details about yourself, such as your age, on Wikipedia. I'm sure your parents would tel you that it's not a good idea to give strangers on the internet (or anywhere) your personal information. Stay safe.

I don't have a formal mentoring program, but I can help you get started editing and answer your questions. What type of contributions do you want to make on Wikipedia?- Mr X 20:11, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
