I'm sorry if that came across the wrong way. Let's all of us take a step back for a minute. Everything that's added to Misplaced Pages is subject to the policies I linked in my edit summary (V, CITE, and RS). That means, Foremanfan, that if you want to add new information to Misplaced Pages, you generally have to provide a source to verify this information (unless you're taking that information from another article, and the sources are already listed in that article). In this case, the information on miscarriage added to ] was ''not'' supported by a source, nor was it supported by the information and sources already present at the article ]. The onus is on the editor who wants to add new information to an article to provide sources ''before'' that information is added. It isn't the other way around. Sources must also meet the standard of ]; an essay "written by AJ," which does not list any of its own sources, and which is hosted on a site filled with Google Ads is not a reliable source.

==EVP== | |||
Sorry, I have to disagree with ''"the thing which is unusual, thus meriting the term "phenomenon", is that the presence of the "electronic voice" is unexplained."'' Only a relatively small group of EVP/paranormal/proponents call it a phenomenon and say it's unexplained. The rest of the world, including professional audio engineering organizations, don't call it anything -- and haven't reported ''any'' unexplainable anomalies with regard to audio technology, design, or application. Therefore those sorts of claims need to include a phrase such as "said by paranormal investigators to be". See my note on the Talk page. -- ] 17:37, 20 April 2007 (UTC) | |||

I thought it might be a good idea to cut down on the mass of arbcom evidence information there is.

We are conducting research into the role of social norms in online communication. This research is funded by the European Union and is being undertaken by a coalition of European Universities (see http://emil.istc.cnr.it/?q=node/8). The research is designed to help us understand how social norms interact with the technology that supports online collaboration. We have selected 35 Misplaced Pages articles flagged as controversial for study. We are analysing the interactions on the discussion pages and are also seeking additional input from contributors to those discussions. | |||
As a participant in the recent discussion about a controversial topic - Abortion, I would be very grateful if you could follow the link to a simple questionnaire. This should take only 2 minutes to complete. | |||

== Examine a Case Before Passing Judgment == | |||
You should see the first para of the main article ], in which there was a statement about Rgveda's dating which was falsely sourced to a work by Max Muller. I supplied the correct citation about dating from that work, but DAB removed the entire reference. Thus, the statement became unreferenced,which is bad. Then, I replaced the absolute dating 1700-1100 BC (which needs source; same statement is repeated elsewhere where source is given, but an unsourced statent in the beginning is bad) by a relative dating 'much before the Buddha', which no one would have challenged. There was no need to discuss dating in introduction,because it has a separete passage. DAB reverted my well-intentioned action and again inserted absolute dating without any citation, and posted an ''abusive'' message to my talk page. I find many people in Wiki are passing judgments without judging a case. I complained to many admins about DAB's insulting behaviour and wrong edits, but no one checks him. Moreschi said yesternight that no one will sympathise with me , after which I was frustrated and issued a legal warning to DAB in order to check him from abusing me publicly, for which Moreschi instantly banned me indefinetely. I did not know a legal warning against illegal activities is not favoured in Wiki, I joined Wiki just a month ago. But I do not edit an article unless I have adequate expertise of the topic together with adequate sources. Today, DAB inserted an unsourced statement by removing a well sourced one and abused me for giving a sourced statement ! Who will check him ? Implement what you have posted at Talk:Rgveda, and remove unsourced statement which has been inserted by removing a sourced one. The list of past complaints, see talk page of Abecedare and Moreschi.

Before an article is nominated for deletion it should be advised to edit first. Chuck Sirloin did not do that and created this madness as you referred to it. His "reasons" are not valid enough for deletion and did not give the opportunity to edit before deleting 95% of the article. Multiple citations in an article are a good form of resources according to what I read on WP. So the article is well documented and linked to other pages verifying that information. Why this individual's page is being targeted is beyond any rational decision. And I hope Chuck Sirlion gets blocked for his continued actions and edits on this site and not only with the Lexie Kaye article but for others as well.

Hi, | |||
I noticed you left me a message about my user name, ]. I am rather surprised by this as I do not see how it violates the Misplaced Pages name policy. Please let me know if there are any specific problems with it - it is simply some initials with the word 'aero' after it since I am interested in editing aerodynamics articles. I am having some problems with the user ], who is harassing me over changes I am making to his edits and he has apparently had issues with my name. This user has caused a lot of problems with Misplaced Pages aerodynamics pages (see his discussion page - I am going to work with ] to try to resolve these issues.) ] 15:34, 18 October 2007 (UTC)EMBaero | |||
====Response to both==== | |||
In addition my concerns about a potential ], the username implies that this user may be a representative of a company (EMB Aero LLC, Lakeland FL 33809), which is a violation of ] (specifically, the "Promotional" clause). Would some other series of initials be acceptable? <font color="006622">]</font><sup>]</sup><sub>]</sub> 15:45, 18 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
=====About this company===== | |||
I searched for this company, and I can't find a website or anything else for it. It appears that someone created 'EMB Aero LLC' as a ] and registered a small airplane under it, probably just for taxation or liability purposes. Maybe this person is a flight instructor or something of that nature where he or she is paid to have some passengers on the plane. The similarity of my name to this extremely small pseudo-company is a complete coincidence, and I would like to keep my name for the sake of continuity if possible. I've never been within 1000 miles of Lakeland, Florida. Not to be overly nit-picky, but your name also can be mistaken for a company (Sheffield Steel Products Inc., 355 Ledge Road, Macedonia, OH). I'll request a name change later today if it is still a problem. ] 16:40, 18 October 2007 (UTC)EMBaero | |||
:Touché. However, my contributions are related to neither Sheffield nor steel. I think it's the ''combination'' of your interest in aerodynamics plus your username that might be a problem (the initials EMB are also used to refer to Embraer jets). I would suggest we see what other editors think about this, although ] says it's only for cases where an editor refuses to change their name - and the other available forum, ] is for users where a block is requested based on username. Since you're clearly a good faith contributor and willing to discuss this matter, wikipedia doesn't seem to have a venue for this.

::Having another editor take a look at it sounds like a good idea to me. This might seem like a fine line, but I do not plan on editing any articles about aircraft - only the principles of aerodynamics and biographies of some of the early pioneers in the field. I would have no problem changing my name, but the fact that all of my edits will not be transferred to the new name is what holds me back from doing so. The user name policy is specifically against: "Usernames that ''match'' the name of a company or group, especially if the user ''promotes'' it" - and my name does not exactly match either of these companies nor will I be promoting them. In short, you can trust me, and my only motive is to help Misplaced Pages in expanding articles on aerodynamics. ] 18:01, 18 October 2007 (UTC)EMBaero | |||

Respectfully, I guess I disagree. I viewed this as simple disinformation without any source to back it up.

''Through'' the agents, they executed a search warrant, but the terminology is still accurate in the original and the changes only added wordiness/confusion. Personally, I am not too thrilled about "affiliated with Al Qaeda" since membership in al Qaeda doesn't exactly give you their secret decoder rings or a membership card...contrary to the rules of war, but that's another battle... but I'm leaving that one for now while I work on other articles. <span style="background-color: maroon; color: white">]</span> <sup>]</sup> 00:35, 21 November 2007 (UTC) | |||

No apologies needed on your two-cent deposit in the discussion I was having elsewhere on the use of the word "ignorant" -- but your definition of "ignorant" is wonky.

:Ignorant means lacking in knowledge, training, or information, whether it's applied to a person, a statement, or whatever.

I can't see the contradiction you are seeing. You seem to be reading a lot into . He said that your claim was "ignorant of academic practices", which means that he thinks that anyone who would make such a claim must be lacking in knowledge of academic practices.

* I am sorry, but you contradicted yourself again. You stated that the comment in question was made by someone who "thinks that anyone who would make such a claim must be lacking in knowledge of academic practices." Is that a statement of good faith? Not in my book. Of course, the source of the statement also insisted there was genuine notability for Dr. Klein because there were 14,000 Google hits for this subject -- ignoring the basic fact that the majority of those Google references were repetitions, and a good slice of the listings came from Dr. Klein's personal web site! So much for "academic practices." | |||

- Occasionally, I may copy a discussion to what I feel is a more appropriate venue, particularly if I think it would benefit from other editors' input. If I do, I'll leave a link here so everyone can follow the thread.
- Please start new conversations at the bottom of this page by clicking on the "new section" tab above.
- I reserve the right to revert any edits to this page that I feel to be truly messed up.

Notice of change
Hello. You are receiving this message because of a recent change to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that if you are inactive for a continuous three year period, you will be unable to request return of the administrative user right. This includes inactive time prior to your desysopping if you were desysopped for inactivity and inactive time prior to the change in policy. Inactivity is defined as the absence of edits or logged actions. Until such time as you have been inactive for three years, you may request return of the tools at the bureaucrats' noticeboard. After you have been inactive for three years, you may seek return of the tools only through WP:RFA. Thank you. MBisanz 00:20, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
