Notice

Why u removed what i did on fifth harmony page ? can you put again because u removed all the awards they won and i put because they won or were nominated i don´t change things if i don´t know ok — Preceding unsigned comment added by MariaDiniz1 (talk • contribs) 23:17, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

The only edit I reverted was this one, because I noticed that the page had been blanked. I assumed that it was a mistake, but I left a note on your talk page to notify you that I took care of it. I did not delete any of the content you added to the page.

My reversion was on December 1; it seems like the section you are talking about was blanked with this edit on January 4, which was not by me, but by Little Mix Croatia. I am not sure why your information was removed, because it was sourced; perhaps the person who reverted it thought that the sources weren't reliable enough, or there weren't enough sources? Perhaps you would like to bring the matter up on the article's talk page or with this editor on their talk page. Just remember to assume good faith and be civil.

In addition, you can always check the "View history" tab at the top right of the article to view the edit history.

Also, please remember to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~). If you have any other concerns, feel free to ask, and happy editing! – TCMemoire 00:08, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

I have now retrieved the information and added it back in for you. A source still needs to be added for the last ceremony; if you had one and it got lost, feel free to add it again (next to the show name). Happy editing! – TCMemoire 00:40, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

/* Awards and nominations */

I removed some content from Fifth Harmony (awards and nominations) because those are not the real nominations. It's not a real award. They didn't get a statue or something like that. THAT'S NOT A REAL AWARDS, SO STOP PUTTING THAT ON PAGE! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Little Mix Croatia (talk • contribs) 14:18, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Firstly, I ask that you please calm down. Please remember WP:CIVIL.

Wow. This was an embarrassing goof on my part. You are right; I took a second glance at the sources and I noticed that they are not notable, and three are now broken or inaccessible (the page has been updated or moved). I will admit that I was a bit ignorant here.

I do ask that you understand that my actions were in good faith; I did not understand why the awards section was being blanked. In the future, to avoid other disputes, please remember that the edit summary box is very useful. Edit summaries can easily be used to briefly explain not only your changes, but also your motives. Thanks for contacting me so this got resolved quickly and didn't accumulate into an edit war.

(As a side note, please remember to sign and date your talk page comments with four tilde (~). Sometimes, SineBot doesn't catch it.)

Thank you, and again, I apologize. – TCMemoire 06:51, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for understanding and thanks for checking those informations. And again I also apologize for being rude. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Little Mix Croatia (talk • contribs) 12:07, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

/* Tour */

And please can someone stop removing Salute tour from Little Mix wikipedia. I tried really hard to make that page on wiki. They have that tour in May 2014 and I think that should have special page and not be on Little Mix Salute (album) page. Please! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Little Mix Croatia (talk • contribs) 12:12, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

The talk pages here and here indicate that it was decided that Salute Tour should be merged with the Salute (Little Mix album) article, meaning that the Salute Tour should stay on the album page. It is probably too soon to create an article about the tour yet; perhaps when it the tour is in progress, the new article can be created at Salute Tour. Right now, the tour is far into the future and not many sources have released information about it yet, aside from dates and locations. The article cannot support itself just yet due to this lack of information. For this time, please keep all tour info in the appropriate section on the album page and leave the Salute Tour space as a redirect. Thank you. – TCMemoire 16:43, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Sorry but I already made that page and just because you think it's too early doesn't mean you have to delete my work. I don't think it's too early. For example Demi Lovato's Neon Lights tour was also made when it was announced. There is only 4 months till Salute tour, so I think there should be a page for that. Please don't delete my work in future. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Little Mix Croatia (talk • contribs) 18:28, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Firstly, I am completely neutral; I have never deleted any content. (Please see the pages' edit histories.) I am not sure why the article was merged; I cannot find a reason anywhere.

I understand your concern. However, there is no ownership of articles; all edits to Wikipedia are subject to review and change by any editor, regardless of the work that someone has done. Just because one thinks something should be included in the wiki does not mean it is suitable for inclusion.

Your work still exists on the wiki, it is just not a separate article. That does not undermine the notability of the event. People searching for Salute Tour will be redirected to the page where they can read about it. As I stated, it is my own belief that there is not enough information for the event to function as a separate article, but others might take a different stance.

I think it would be best to do one of two things. The first option would be to open a Request for Comment on one of the talk pages. The second would be to use the Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard. There, the dispute can receive more widespread input and can reach a quicker consensus. As it is I don't believe we will be able to reach an agreement.

DYK for Aeroflot Flight 3519

The DYK project (nominate) 08:02, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

/* Awards and nominations */

I want to report some person that keep's putting on Fifth Harmony's wikipedia false informations. Someone is constantly putting some unimportant (magazine) awards. Those are not real awards because there isn't any event for that and they didn't get any statue or something for that. I don't know username of that person but it's getting annoying so could you please tell her/him to stop doing that. And Someone is constantly removing 'sales' from Little Mix discography. Can They please stop. Please do something.

Thank you for your understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Little Mix Croatia (talk • contribs) 20:44, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

Little Mix discography: The edits were reverted by an IP user because they were unsourced; see this edit summary. Please provide a reliable source (which excludes original research, blogs, social networks, etc.) along with the information to prevent the content from being deleted for this reason.

Fifth Harmony: I agree with you that polls or unofficial awards shouldn't be included. (There was a mention of that here, on the talk page). However, please remember to not threaten other editors, even if they threatened you first. I am not an admin and cannot carry out any punishment; and besides, there is a special area designated for incident reports. More importantly, it seems to me that this situation has not escalated to the point where adverse action needs to be taken. It is a simple misunderstanding that can be resolved quietly.

Now and for future reference, I strongly suggest taking this discussion and any future concerns to the articles' talk pages, which you can find at the top left of the article. It is a tab labeled "Talk". The problem can be better dealt with there, because more editors will be able to answer you, including the editor with whom you seem to have a dispute with. I am not directly involved in this case. My suggestion right now is to leave the page alone until the dispute is resolved to that this does not escalate into an edit war. I have added both pages to my watchlist, so I will know about any discussions. Thank you, – TCMemoire 03:15, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

Review of Wasson Bluff

Thanks for reviewing the entry on Wasson Bluff. I have been away for a little while and didn't notice that the entry had been reviewed until today. I'm hoping you found that the entry was OK. Bwark (talk) 18:02, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

I apologize for the delayed response! I certainly did. I reviewed it as part of Page Curation, and for some reason, it hadn't already been marked as reviewed. I also found the article very interesting (I've always had a fascination with paleontology!). Happy editing! – TCMemoire 06:37, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Hey! Thank you so much for the kind advice and welcome message. Also, thank you for being so forgiving since I am new to Wikipedia. As for the incident, something happened after I tried submitting my comment and I wasn't aware that you were also editing the page. I am truly sorry I didn't mean to replace your signature. Again, thank you for all of your input and i'll try to be more careful next time!

LeDrewww (talk) 06:39, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

D'awww, thank you! It's no problem. I hope you're enjoying Wikipedia! – TCMemoire 06:42, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Urban Habitat

Hi TCMemoire I am a web developer task by my client to publish a page about their interior design company. They do have local awards but I'm only afraid that you have certain requirements regarding what awards can be accepted. Is it possible to show samples of other small interior design company that has met these requirements? Thanks, Nelson User: Retinel — Preceding unsigned comment added by Retinel (talk • contribs) 14:55, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello, Nelson. While I understand your motives, Wikipedia must not be used to promote any business, organization, or other subject, especially those that you might have a conflict of interest with. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and cannot have an article for everything. Also, just because two companies have achieved the same awards does not necessarily make one or either inherently notable. Please see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not for more information.

Small local awards are not enough to establish notability. Notability is established through significant coverage of the subject through reliable, third-party sources. For a guide to what makes a company article notable on Wikipedia, see Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies); and for more info on reliable sources, see Wikipedia:Reliable sources.

If you have any additional concerns or questions, feel free to reply here. Thank you, – TCMemoire 17:32, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for your help on the Black Hills template and for your contributions to Wikipedia! Runner1928 (talk) 00:28, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

You're welcome! I'm glad to help. Thanks for making that template, it's much needed! – TCMemoire 19:14, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

Rollback granted

I have granted rollback rights to your account. After a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, contact me and I will remove it. Good luck and thanks. — MusikAnimal ^talk 21:08, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

2014 gubernatorial primary elections

Sorry about that.

I don't know all of the "rules" of Wikipedia yet. Thanks for the information about the INUse Tag. I'll be sure to use it from now on.

Also, thanks for for the other email about good editing practices. I follow the elections closely and decided to contribute while I had time to kill.

Thanks,

Lordbowler (talk) 17:47, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

I completely understand. I'm still learning myself, and I've been active for almost a year. Wikipedia is complex, but it's very rewarding! Also, thank you very much for the barnstar! – TCMemoire 05:46, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

A cookie for you!

For your creation of the article South Dakota gubernatorial election, 1890. Wikipedia has too many red links for older elections, so its nice to see them get filled in. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 05:38, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Thank you very much! I was also shocked to see that these articles didn't exist yet. I plan to create articles for every South Dakota gubernatorial election. – TCMemoire 01:18, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

Little Mix Discography

Can someone please STOP REMOVING ALL THOSE SALES FROM LITTLE MIX DISCOGRAPHY! They sold all those records. Please stop removing it. Their wikipedia looks better with that, without that it's empty and it looks weird, PLEASE STOP REMOVING IT! I just wanted to ask if there is any chance that I can only edit Little Mix wikipedia, can it be locked for everyone except me? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Little Mix Croatia (talk • contribs) 21:20, 22 June 2014 (UTC)

First of all, please, stay calm. Perhaps you should take a break from the article for a while? Otherwise, I've included a picture of an adorable red panda I found on the Wiki. It's my favorite animal, and when I'm upset, I go watch red panda videos on YouTube. The longer you stare at it, the cuter it gets!

Please remember that all editors have different opinions about what belongs in an article. For example, "In popular culture", external links, and even infoboxes are very commonly disputed. This seems to be the case here: "should the sales information be included or not?"

Also, please make sure that you are citing your information with reliable sources. If it is not cited, editors will often remove it.

As for your question about a block that will let only you edit the page, no such thing exists. Most editors believe that would defeat the purpose of Wikipedia and its "spirit of openness", and could potentially be seen as an insult by other people.

As I have advised in the past, I suggest discussing this issue in a civil manner on the article's talk page, or, if you have a disagreement with only one other editor, on that editor's talk page. The absolute best way to resolve any conflict is with civil discussion. I did not remove the information from that page, and I am not a part of this disagreement, so there is only so much that I can do to try to help.

Thank you,

– TCMemoire 23:11, 22 June 2014 (UTC)

Vandalizing?

What do you mean, I am vandalizing a page? My changes are well cited and documented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.246.51.142 (talk) 18:43, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

*headdesks*

Eek! While using the new version of Huggle, I accidentally slipped and for whatever reason, I didn't notice it. I think I might have tried to pull up one of the toolbar menus and clicked on the button after it disappeared; I've been having near-issues with that and it seems that it finally happened. I am VERY sorry about that. I have rollbacked my own revert.

However, there seems to be some unrelated conflict regarding your edit. It should not have been labelled as vandalism, however.

Thank you for letting me know and again, I apologize,

– TCMemoire 18:55, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for being fair on that. And indeed, there seems to be a dispute, between sources. I am not too versed in the "editing rules", but that seems to be the only reason for reverting my edits, as well as blocking me from editing. At least in my view, the sources I am citing have the "priority". My only goal for making the edits is to correct the incorrect source, in order to make Wikipedia truthful, and not promoting anything. Or rather, promoting the truth. I suppose everyone says the same, though, so I am sure there has to be some kind of arbitration in such cases. As I said, I am not too versed in editing rules, but I will eventually find that mechanism if needed. Once again, thank you for being fair on the "vandalism issue". Best regards :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.246.51.142 (talk) 19:25, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

IP, all the other editors disagree with your change. Per WP:BRD, you must FIRST obtain consensus on the talk page of the article before you make your change. Any attempt to force the issue like you've been doing for weeks will result with a report and then a block. Please consider yourself informed with the editing process now.--McSly (talk) 19:41, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

So, if I gather enough people on the Talk who will bake me up, and by "enough" I mean more than those who disagree (which is 4), then those who revert my edits will be the ones who are breaking the rules. Thank you, McSly, for letting me know how to accomplish the truthfulness of the information on Wikipedia! That was quite enlightening! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.246.51.142 (talk) 19:56, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

Please read (carefully) WP:CONSENSUS as well as WP:SOCK and WP:MEAT. So if say tomorrow morning, 5 brand new users would show up to back up your claim, that you'd be a transparent attempt to go around the consensus building process and would almost guaranty your permanent block. Wikipedia is based on what reliable sources tell us about the subject. Since UNSCR 1244, Kosovo declared independence. That independence has been widely recognized and declared legal when challenged in court by Serbia (Kosovo's independence is legal, UN court rules). Last year agreement between Kosovo and Serbia has essentially is a de facto recognition of the independence, even if not officially admitted (Kosovo and Serbia Make a Deal). So unless, you have newer sources showing that these agreements have been revoked, there isn't much we can do here.--McSly (talk) 21:48, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

If the consensus is required, how will you fit my dissent into that??? Just disregard me and my sources? What you are talking is simple bullying! I provided the source, which is the ultimate on this planet! Yet, you are still defending the biased source of an individual country's government! The Court made a ruling that such declaration does not oppose the international law, but it didn't mention other binding documents, like the UNSCR 1244! Also, there was no referendum on independence, and even if there was, it wouldn't be legal or legitimate, because several hundreds of thousands of Serbs and other non-Albanians are still exiled, and they face terror and intimidation when return, as the examples of a handful of those who have returned show! Also, the Parliament which made the declaration didn't have such authority. It was an interim parliament. The number of countries which have recognized the illegal declaration of independence is irrelevant, Kosovo is not a member of the UN, thus not a country. If you see the talks and attempts to improve relations as a de facto recognition, that is your right, but that doesn't make it true. All the talks are held as "status-neutral". You are here showing that you are very biased on this matter, and that you see what is not there, but what you want to see. And you are pushing for such biased opinion! But that only tells about yourself, and I pity you. Bottom line is that the document, UNSCR 1244, which reaffirms Serbia's sovereignty on its entire territory, including the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija, is still valid! And to paraphrase your words, unless you can prove it has been canceled, there is not much we can do here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.246.51.142 (talk) 00:09, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Lakota language

When you're adding Lakota names, are you translating from the English (e.g., Maverick Junction) or finding the original Lakota name for that place?Runner1928 (talk) 03:11, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

I'm using the source I've been providing, which I obtained from my library. The entries are listed, for example, "Hermosa, SD", or "Little Bighorn River". The dictionary seems to be listing authentic names that are actually used by the Lakota (I can verify this within the next couple days), and that is what I'm providing; I'm not translating them from English to the Lakota equivalent. However, in some cases where the Lakota name in English and the actual English name are different, and I can find entries for each word, I've been translating from Lakota and providing an English translation, along with the actual Lakota name (such as Glencross, South Dakota). Does that make sense, or am I too confusing? – TCMemoire 03:40, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

Could you check my addition to Missouri River? I found a native pronunciation for the river name in a SD history book but no clear statement that it's Lakota or what the original spelling is. My addition is at the top of the river infobox. Thanks. Runner1928 (talk) 20:20, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

According to the book, the Lakota spelling is "Mnišoše". I'm no expert, but I believe the correct pronunciation would be "mnee-shoh-shay". (I used this website as a pronunciation guideline.) Thanks! – TCMemoire 21:00, 28 September 2014 (UTC)

You're amazing. Thanks!! Runner1928 (talk) 03:09, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
