The general idea has become (Since I didn't get a Wikicity, which would have made this enormously easier) To write a book whose title | |||
would be "How to generate an Doctorate level Interdisciplinary program on WikiBooks". This is actually something of a digression | |||
from what I really wanted to do do to get a lot of people in the | |||
area. I figured i'd start the WikiCity just post some StarShips, and | |||
I'd have people showing up to oooh and ahhh over the art. I can't go that route on Wikibooks for obvious reasons. | |||
'''Hello Heah''', Sud Ram has smiled at you! Smiles promote ] and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the ] by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Go on, smile! Cheers, and happy editing! <br /> <small>''Smile at others by adding {{tls|Smile}} to their talk page with a friendly message.''</small> | |||
Instead, i'm forced to get things to the point of having sufficient | |||
</div><!-- Template:Smile --> | |||
content to attract more people. This is the main issue. | |||
I just got done counting my Subdepartments. Theres 345 of them. I'm not going to be able to single handedly do more than create them all | |||
as pages with links, references, Socratic Method, and Table of Contents. In other words, I'll end up with 345 pages each of Which is | |||
full of red links to doors for somebody else to open. | |||
== ] nomination of ] == | |||
My (first) question is, should i just work on only the Main Departments? | |||
Is there a process one would go through to get help with simple | |||
basic but annoyingly boring and time consuming tasks like searching | |||
Misplaced Pages for its relevant articles? I'm sepnding most of my time | |||
nowadays just running the search engine for 5 minutes to find one | |||
link. If I could somehow talk 10 Wikifolks into helping me, it would | |||
really make a difference. There are a variety of related questions. | |||
I have considered folding my subdepartments back into the main departmens- merging. The problem with this is the whole point of the whole thing is to create the meta structure that shows how it would be done, and taking out the sub-departments both removes what would become an important feature, but invites chaos when somebody adds details. (Sort of the worst problem i normally encounter with Misplaced Pages. Navigating between articles and concepts.) | |||

I'm trying to visualize a realistic growth process considering that | |||
this isn't a Wikicity. The more i look at it, the more depressing it | |||
becomes. Maybe you have some ideas on how to increase the rate of that process. I went and asked for a bot, for instance. Not anything | |||
for a reply. You'd think by now that they would have worked out a way | |||
for a bot to populate a new child network with the links that are relative to say for instance, a set of keywords. I have also been | |||
working a bit on yahoo groups, but honestly, I don't feel comfortable | |||
drawing people in yet from outside the organization, there isn't enough done yet. | |||
Should I just give up alltogether on filling out the references and | |||
leave that to some future wave of Wikipedians? The idea there was to | |||
avoid mirroring or redundancy by linking to whats allready been done. | |||
(as well as build the knowledge base as quickly aspossible to move on into the level of expert.) | |||

In this they are distinct from United States Numbered Highways and Interstate Highways, however these three categories of highways are all owned and constructed by the state in which they are located. State highways which are part of the National Highway System receive substantial federal financing while the remainder are primarily financed by the individual states.'' ] | |||
::So they don't seem simply redundant; as interstates and US highways are ''not'' state highways according to the wikipedia article on state highways, SPUI's argument seems based on a mistaken premise.

What you've done is block me from restoring information added to the page, which was then vandalized by Bkwillwm, with no discussion! Remove this block now. If not, remove all my contributions going all the way back to when I first made them. I'd rather have that than have them twisted. ] 04:09, 12 April 2006 (UTC) | |||
There was no violation of the three revert rule, as Bkwillwm well knows, reversion of vandalism does not count toward 3RR, explicitly. I have addressed his complaint, several times. I found his complaint to be without merit, as he seems to feel that POV rule says that no comment which contains both sides of a dispute, when it relates to George Bush, is acceptible. This is not a violation of the POV rule, it is POV. Since ,User:Heah, you admit that you have not looked into this, a semi-protect that blocks me, but not Bkwillwm, is an abuse of admin power, and will be reported unless immediately removed. ] 16:10, 12 April 2006 (UTC) | |||

Well, usually I don't interfere on enWiki but I've just seen a so interesting remark put by you on Space Cadet's talk page... :] Please, don't say ''your patience is waning'' in this way - Space Cadet is a Wikimedian far longer than you are. ^^ | |||
I'd like to ask you to consider this point: politeness is important but not as much as the truth on Wiki. I know "fighters" are quite tiring - but pretty many of them is simply right. And to say which ones you really have to put your effort - but it's really worth of it in the world of biased, anglo-centric and spoiled by unfair edit wars and groups of interest enWiki. Has any of you really crtically checked all the given sources and is sure who is right? | |||
Polish-Russian dispute on enWiki is some proof how more numerous and backed by their state group wins their point. Unfortunately, these disputes are on this Wiki countless - and that is why why it's such a mess despite (or maybe because of) so many contributors. | |||

:No problem, mate, we all try to be kinder, although vandalisms, errors and hostile/uneducated/biased/... people are so numerous and we are so few and sometimes we all simply lack patience and energy to do everything fine. That's why also I don't involve too much on enWiki - we have already enough biased users on pl and work to do over there, and countless disputes with some users here (like Australian guy stating he knows history of central Europe better than anyone else, no matter Polish, Czech or Russian and pushing hard his opinions or some Russians rewriting sentences from old soviet propaganda books (in fact there were very few non-propaganda ones) like Great Soviet Encyclopedia). | |||
:Add to that bullies, opportunism and double standards of some users (politeness expressed in front of whole community or sysops combined with harsh personal attacks, malicious edits and even attacking other cultures like one of sysops here - guy probably does not have balls to say anything like that in real life as he'd be sued in a minute - I don't want to look for a link). Not to forget anglo-centrism and ignorance and we know why actually experts and not only them often run away from Misplaced Pages. Unfortunately, it's much harder to examine whether an article is true than if a piece of software works. | |||
:So, as sour it sounds, keep rockin' :) 'cause there's a lotta work to do! Somebody has to do that and hopefully there will be Misplaced Pages 1.0+ when someone comes after us and corrects everything. If not, well, sadly we will just enforce some stereotypes, urban legends and unproven facts. | |||

==Jim Heller== | |||
Heah, | |||
This is Jim Heller, the person you blocked for supposedly violating the three-revert rule on the Ron Geaves article. I believe that the violator in that situation was Jossi Fresco not me. Indeed, I believe that Jossi Fresco was vandalizing the article, taking out all the text that I contributed on a new subject within the Geaves article, but that once I began reversing his vandalism he began to accuse me of "reverting". I would like to discuss this with you further. Is this the appropriate place? Thanks--] 13:56, 12 April 2006 (UTC) | |||
In fact, rather than wait, here's my complaint: | |||
To whom it may concern, | |||
Hi. My name's Jim Heller and I'm currently and for some time now caught up in a series of edit wars with Jossi Fresco. The background is this. I am a former follower of Prem Rawat, a/k/a Maharaji, a person I believe is a nefarious cult leader. Fresco, on the other hand, is a current follower and, needless to say, of a different mind altogether. | |||
For some years now, ever since the advent of the internet, Rawat and his followers have engaged in a long-standing campaign to whitewash Rawat's past and somehow protect him from the harsh light of history. The latest flashpoint arose just today when I tried to edit a Misplaced Pages article of another of Rawat's current followers, a religious studies professor in fact, Ron Geaves (who, by the way, just shot to flashpan infamy as the English academic who opined that the July 7th bombers were "demonstrators", not "terrorists". | |||
Please excuse the fact that, to explain the problem in any meaningful way, I have to flesh out the context somewhat. My edit concerned an academic (not Misplaced Pages) article Geaves had written where, discussing a program Rawat held in 1973, he wrote that: | |||
''In November 1973, Divine Light Mission had booked the Houston Astrodome, a large sports stadium with a capacity of 90,000. The event had taken on millenial expectations in the U.S. with devotees announcing and advertising Maharaji's appearance at the stadium as a second-coming, complete with angelic and alien visitors. Only 20,000 attended the event and '''Maharaji did not appear to have any knowledge of his American followers' expectations'''. He spoke as he usually does at such gatherings with no hint of messianic promises.'' | |||
(My emphasis here and below) | |||
In fact, in a widely-disseminated invitation to that same 1973 program, Maharaji himself not only demonstrated knowledge of the "millenial expectations" but fanned the flames substantially. Thus, he declared the program the "most Holy and significant event in human history" and even hinted that it might have intergalactic significance: | |||
::''A LETTER FROM GURU MAHARAJ JI | |||
::''Bonn, Germany'' | |||
::''September 31, 1973'' | |||
::''Dear premies,'' | |||
::''First of all, I would like to tell you about something of great importance to all of us. Because we have realized this beautiful Knowledge which is of great bliss to us all, it is our duty to propagate it to the human race. For it is something they really need.'' | |||
::''In the world there is suffering, hatred and dissatisfaction. That fact does not need proof. It is understood by all that the world is passing through a great moment. No one has satisfaction of mind nor can they find the solution to this. '''The world is looking for the Perfect Master to come and reveal the Perfect Knowledge of God'''. There is a supreme energy constantly vibrating in everything making it survive and all the Perfect Masters coem to reveal this Knowledge to people. We can attain all materialistic things and still not have peace, for peace lies inside not outside in materialism.'' | |||
::''As you all know Millenium '73 is being prepared for now. This festival has been organized by Divine Light Mission each year since 1967, in the memory of the late Satgurudev Shri Hans Ji Maharaji on His birthday. '''This year the most Holy and significant event in human history will take place in America.''''' | |||
::''I think that Millenium '73 is a point where we can really get together and enjoy the bliss bliss with all of our brothers and sisters who are premies; and also tell the world that we have received and realized the permanent service of Truth, Consciousness and Bliss which all the world is looking for in one way or manner.'' | |||
::''To do this I really need your help. I really need the help of all the premies in all respects; physically, financially and all other ways to make Millenium '73 come off. '''This is a festival not for you or me. It is for the whole world and maybe the whole universe'''.'' | |||
::''I hereby invite you to this Divine Festival of Peace, Millenium '73 and request all premies to help me financially, physically and spiritually to make the program manifest for all seekers of Truth.'' | |||
::'''''Isn't it about time you all get together and help me bring peace to this Earth?''''' | |||
::''Blessings to you all, | |||
::'''''' | |||
It is clear, when you contrast Geaves' claim with the documentary evidence, that Geaves, bless his heart, is playing the role of the typical cult apologist, lying about his leader and blaming the followers, the press, anyone at all, for the inexcusable, laughable excesses of the cult. What's particularly worrying about Geaves, I'm sure you can appreciate, is that, as a religious studies professor, he's imbued with a certain authority that makes him an especially effective, if unscrupulous, propagandist. It's one thing when he makes silly comments about the July 7 bombers being "demonstrators" not terrorists. No one would ever take him seriously on that score. But it's another altogether when he publishes supposedly-scholarly works about his cult leader (without ever disclosing that he's a follower, by the way) which completely distort the historical record. | |||
With these concerns in mind, I wrote the following additional comment for Geaves' Misplaced Pages article: | |||
:''Geaves has written a couple of articles about Prem Rawat, his guru, for various scholarly journals without publically disclosing in those pieces that he is a follower of Rawat (a/k/a Maharaji). Critics of Geaves allege that these works are dissembling, revisionist propaganda and far too biased and inaccurate for proper scholarship. For instance, in a 2006 article, Geaves commented on the "Millenium" festival Rawat held in Houston in 1973, noting that "The event had taken on millenial expectations in the U.S. with devotees announcing and advertising Maharaji's appearance at the stadium as a second-coming, complete with angelic and alien visitors. Only 20,000 attended the event and Maharaji did not appear to have any knowledge of his American followers' expectations. He spoke as he usually does at such gatherings with no hint of messianic promises." However, in a letter that Rawat himself wrote inviting followers to the festival, he called it "the most Holy and significant event in human history". And later, "This is a festival not for you or me. It is for the whole world and maybe the whole universe."'' | |||
Now you may think that this isn't quite NPOV enough. You may think it requires more specific attributions. You may even think it isn't particularly well-written. But these are all matters which can be discussed and worked on in a Wikipedian collaborative spirit. Instead, what happened was Jossi Fresco, a paid web tech for Rawat (Maharaji), who stands guard dog over the Rawat articles for his master, anonymously began deleting my text and inserting, instead, this: | |||
:''Dr. Geaves has also written a number of papers related to Maharaji and affiliated organizations to combine his first hand knowledge of the subject (Geaves is a student of Maharaji) with his academic training to provide insights into this movement '' | |||
As indicated on the Talk: Ron Geaves page, eventually Fresco admitted that he was the deleter. We then got into a big tug-o-war wherein I would reinsert my text and warn him to quit reverting and he would then blame me for reverting in contravention of the Wiki excessive reversion rule. At one point he siezed on the fact that I posted without remembering to log in (I'm a bit new at this), accusing me of trying to sneak in via a sockpuppet or whatever you call them. Hardly. I've never denied my identity which has been apparent to Fresco all along. Like I said, he was the one who started the anonymous vandalism of my edit before finally coming out of the shadows. | |||
After all this, though, the nub of the issue is this: who was the original editor here and who was performing the illicit reversions? How can I be fairly accused of too many reversions for simply trying to protect my own original edit against his vandalism? Believe me, Jossi Fresco is the first to complain when the shoe's on the other foot, namely when someone changes some text this way. So how can he have it both ways? | |||
I know that Fresco has wormed his way into some sort of admin position with Misplaced Pages but that's just a potential embarrassment for this institution. This is just one example but things like this happen all the time with him. That's why the Prem Rawat articles are so terrible, really. They have very little substance, their focus is all off and, frankly, they're just boring, whitewashed advertisements for this cult. And Fresco's largely responsible. | |||
I look forward to your considered reply. | |||
Sincerely, | |||

Wishing Heah a very happy adminship anniversary on behalf of the Misplaced Pages Birthday Committee! Armbrust, B.Ed. about my edits? 23:53, 7 April 2012 (UTC)Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

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)
