Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Dimitris Liantinis has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Misplaced Pages. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Misplaced Pages. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESwyPoO6Ur4&feature=related. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Misplaced Pages's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Misplaced Pages's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 10:49, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Campbell

Thanks for the preview. It will take me a few days. Gandydancer (talk) 17:23, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

YOUR SUGGESTED EDIT:

One aspect of Campbell’s analysis focused on the evolution of the mythic imaginary through history. The forces responsible where environmental, with the source of food being of primary importance, as well as social, with influences from neighbouring cultures. He indentified stages of evolution which can be summed up to the following

MY SUGGESTION:

One aspect of Campbell’s analysis focused on the evolution of mythic imaginary through history. The forces responsible were environmental with the source of food being of primary importance, and influences from neighboring cultures and society of significance as well. He identified the stages of evolution which can be summed up as follows:

Do you think that reads any better and yet retained your thoughts? Note, if wikipedia underlines a word in red, that means you have spelled it wrong. Also, you frequently mix where and were. And, remember to sign your posts. Gandydancer (talk) 18:07, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Sure, it makes sense. Let me know if you are ok with the rest. Mmick66 (talk) 12:58, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Mmick, I was just thinking that maybe you missed my post to you on my talk page, especially since I made my first reply on your talk page. Gandydancer (talk) 00:02, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

October 2011

Welcome, and thank you for contributing the page Τα 4 Επίπεδα της Ύπαρξης to Misplaced Pages. While you have added the page to the English version of Misplaced Pages, the article is not in English. We invite you to translate it into English. It currently has been listed at Pages Needing Translation, but if it is not translated within two weeks, the article will be listed for deletion. Thank you. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 12:12, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

I have moved the article to the Greek domain as I was intending to from the beginning and placed it in English by mistake. Please delete the entry found in the English domain. Thank you Mmick66 (talk) 12:23, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

You speak Greek?! Well, that explains a lot! Although your English was very good, your many small mistakes with the Campbell article led me to believe that you were not very well-educated. I certainly would not have been so harsh and perhaps sometimes perhaps even patronizing if I had realized that English was not your native language. I remain very impressed with your extensive addition to that article and hope all is well with you. Gandydancer (talk) 13:18, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

Ha.. thanks... yes I am a native Greek speaker and talking about the Campbell article it is very interesting that the Greek version was much more complete that the English one... at least when I began my editing. I though your comments where well intentioned form the very beginning so don't worry. I just felt you wanted a very balanced point of view between the male and female aspects of evolutionary mythology which I am not 100% certain that Campbell held on to. I think the end result was great and the article if far more complete after our addition. You seem very interested in similar topics so I would be happy to discuss with you outside of Misplaced Pages if that is possible. Mmick66 (talk) 13:23, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:RTMPPacket.png

Thanks for uploading File:RTMPPacket.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Misplaced Pages takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Misplaced Pages. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Puffin 13:52, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Preview button

Hi!

• I noticed your awesome work on JavaScript required a great number of edits.

Are you aware that you can see a preview of the work you're doing (to check everything looks good, and check spellings and punctuation etc.) before submitting the work as a finished draft?

Just to the right of the Save page button, you'll see the Show preview button. By using this to check our work before saving the page, we can save a lot of space on the Wikimedia database servers, and other editors a lot of bother trying to keep track of the page history. Please try to get into the habit of using it.

• Also, it's good practice to always leave a short comment about what work we did in the edit summary (the text entry field just above the Save page and Show preview buttons.)

This helps other editors tell at a glance what you have done. Sometimes, without an edit summary, your work may be considered thoughtless, and be undone.

• If you're going to be doing a lot of editing here (all efforts are greatly appreciated), you might like to create your own private sandbox as an extension of your user page.

A sandbox is perfect to use as a testing site for work that might require a lot of little changes over a period of hours or days. And you needn't worry about making any mistakes there, so it's perfect for practising more complicated editing.

Whatever you choose, happy editing!  fredgandt 01:02, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I do forget to do it... it is also part of my character unfortunately. Kind of going back to your house 3 times to get stuff you forgot before you can finally leave. I will try and follow your advise however.

Not the end of the world either way. What matters is the end result, and you're doing good work. fredgandt 08:06, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Flying Dolphin moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Flying Dolphin, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Misplaced Pages). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Misplaced Pages's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. noq (talk) 16:07, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:Flying Dolphin

Hello, Mmick66. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Flying Dolphin, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Misplaced Pages. FireflyBot (talk) 17:01, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Flying Dolphin

Hello, Mmick66. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Flying Dolphin".

In accordance with our policy that Misplaced Pages is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Misplaced Pages, and happy editing. Liz 18:12, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Arationality

The article Arationality has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:GNG - No evidence of this word being used in a conceptual sense as described in the article, other than in the first cited reference. Other results found on google scholar primarily seemed to be using the word in its colloquial sense rather than as an a philosophically defined concept. As Misplaced Pages is not a dictionary, this page should be deleted.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. - car chasm (talk) 21:20, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
