Removal of Interview Questions on Miss Universe 2008 page

I feel that the interview questions that I originally contributed constitutes fair use. They are for educational purposes to record what kind of questions a judge may ask on the Ms. Universe. I would like to know why you removed them.

Okay, saw the revision before removal. It seems that it was the blog that copied the information from Misplaced Pages not the other way around. No copyright violation occurred. Have reverted the questions back.

About your recent reverts at Overseas Chinese

Your recent reverts at Overseas Chinese inadvertently reverted legitimate changes that addressed concerns described in the talk page. It is always a good idea to read the talk page carefully before declaring any edit vandalism. Thank you. 122.109.98.81 (talk) 10:31, 7 June 2008 (UTC)


June 2008

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Matilda Mecini. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Toddst1 (talk) 08:09, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

FYI, I've left a message on Toddst1's talk page to clarify this, as I belive Angelo's edits fall under the BLP exception in the 3RR policy. PageantUpdater talk • contribs 08:43, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

I do make mistakes. Sorry about that.Toddst1 (talk) 08:51, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

User warnings

Done. :) I think they may be sockpuppets judging by the editing patterns and the similar usernames. If the first one breaks his warning, either let me know or report at WP:AIV. If the second one breaks his warning, leave a final warning, and then AIV. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 21:50, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Rollback

I've granted you rollback as well, simply because you'd put it to good use reverting vandalism on the high-risk articless you edit. Plus if you're thinking of getting huggle, you need rollback to use it. Remember not to use it in edit wars, or to revert any good faith edits. They can put new users off the project (we were all new once :)). Best of luck, PeterSymonds (talk) 21:53, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Please participate

Hi Angelo! There is a heavy discussion right now, in this article, Miss Pakistan World here and it was nominated for deletion here; your opinion will be highly appreciated, especially your vote. Your participation in this matter is noteworthy, in view of the fact that you are a member of the Wiki Project Beauty Pageants. It doesn’t matter if your vote is favorable or not, but what matters most is your involvement since it seems to me that some commenter are against pageantry. Personally, I think that the article should be kept but should be freed from tremendous advertisement lines.--Richie Campbell (talk) 00:20, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Miss World 2006

Your recent use off rollback on this article is a breach of the conditions in which you can use it. It is for vandalism only and not content disputes. If you would even read the article on the Ulster Banner you will see that it IS NOT the flag of Northern Ireland and it should not be used to represent it. BigDunc 08:53, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Flags

Since you do not understand that Northern Ireland has no flag and persist in using an unofficial and sectarian flag in articles to fill the void left in your pretty little displays, I have removed all the flags that were being used solely for decorative purposes which is a violation of WP:FLAG. Happy editing! BigDunc 11:17, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Firewell, my friend

I'll no longer contribute to Misplaced Pages. A clique of Christian hypocrites is trying to destroy me; I'm too disappointed with Misplaced Pages system. Administrators don't act against these fraudulent hypocrites who make false claims against NPOV users and impose false informations into the articles. Adios! --Esimal (talk) 18:06, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

New problems

Hi there! After a short-time absence, now youare come back with more problems. I am not appreciate your new map (Image:World religions.png) because its source wasn't good and it's come from a BLOG? Which violated Misplaced Pages's policies. Angelo De La Paz (talk) 12:24, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

-Just updated the source, clearly shows distribution well reflected on both maps. Moshin (talk) 12:27, 23 June 2008 (UTC) -> http://www.britannica.com/eb/art/print?id=68151&articleTypeId=0

- OK go ahead. I'll fix the others later. Thanks. Moshin (talk) 12:40, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Dont follow me

Please dont follow me on to articles and make changes just to try and bait me I have reverted your childish action. But if you must follow at least join the talk page discussion thanks. BigDunc 15:53, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Miss Earth TOC conflict

Hi Angelo! I brought back the article to its original state here before the “edit disagreement” pertaining to the Table Of Contents (TOC) of Miss Earth article, please use the discussion section of the article to convey your ideas so we can come up with a common decision to resolute the matter. Your active participation is needed to resolve the conflict. --Richie Campbell (talk) 13:45, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Image:Soviet Union Muslim Population 1979.jpg

How about this map, it shows the population of Muslims in Kazakhstan, Christian or non-religious population seems to be at the north of Kazakhstan.

Oh I see you have made the changes, Thanks a lot. Moshin (talk) 15:14, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

About the article "East Asia"

I turned it into a netrual one. I hope you will be satisfied with it. Don't use the term "vandalism" to frighten people. If an edit war happens, why do you say that I am guilty, not you? We'd better respect each other, although we have different political ideas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Netking cn (talk • contribs) 10:25, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Islam in Korea

Hi, I seeing a your message.

I think that Islam is not faster and popular religion in South Korea. almost of muslim in korea is believed just the foreign worker in South Korea. --Historiographer (talk) 05:05, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


Natalie Glebova

Hi Angelo,

I have noticed that you removed an update for Endorsements on Natalie Glebova page as of July 3 2008, per WP:EL and WP:SPAM.

Although your action towards external links and references violations may be valid, but the information posted was in fact real and eligible. The source could be found on Natalie Glebova official web page http://www.glebovainternational.com/charitywork.html as well as on original source http://www.scadbangkok.org/

By the way, there is another piece of new information, as of June 12, 2008 posted on http://www.thelotusflowerfoundation.org/ and referenced on http://www.glebovainternational.com/charitywork.htm which would be nice to display on Misplaced Pages.

Since I am not very well positioned with Misplaced Pages rules regarding posting and specifically referencing external links, could you or someone else post these two pieces of information under Endorsements or Biography (if appropriate) on Natalie Glebova page?

Thank you,

Fan —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.61.119.78 (talk) 23:41, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages Tambayan

Hi you can pass by and help. Misplaced Pages: Tambayan Philippines --Exec8 (talk) 05:43, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

July 2008

Thank you for making a report on Misplaced Pages:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Misplaced Pages and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, it appears that the editor you reported may not have engaged in vandalism, or the user was not sufficiently or appropriately warned. Please note there is a difference between vandalism and unhelpful or misguided edits made in good faith. If they continue to vandalise after a recent final warning, please re-report it. Thank you! PeterSymonds (talk) 09:15, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Please take greater care when warning and reporting vandalism to WP:AIV. Your report of User:124.82.100.11 today was rejected because you appear to have cluttered the user's talk page with only warnings and final warnings, all given hours after the user's previous edit. The user has not edited for more than 10 hours, and there was no obvious vandalism in his most recent edits. Please review WP:UWT and be more careful next time. Okiefromokla 02:06, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Reminder re Tibetan people

Angelo de la Paz, you have now reverted three times (not on a single day, I will note) my edits regarding the position of the CTA on the question of sovereignty for Tibet in Tibetan people. The latest revert is this one.

I note that, while you have been doing these reverts, your only posting on the talk page is this: "As far as I know you (PalaceGuard008) before, you are totally pro-China and a Han Chinese nationalist. But please remember NPOV because you mustn't biased any side here"

I appreciate that English is not your first language (according to your user page), but that message was very rude and I am quite offended by it.

I feel I must remind you of several things:

  • One, there is a factual error in the version which you repeatedly revert to. This I have addressed on the talk page. It is not a matter of politics, it is a question of facts. Please read the article which I pointed you towards before making further edits.
  • Two, Misplaced Pages works by consensus and discourages blind reversions, which is what you are currently engaging in. I encourage you to stop reverting, read my post, including the article I pointed you towards, and discuss this civilly on the talk page if you still dispute my edit.
  • Three, Misplaced Pages encourages discussions based on facts and content, not personal prejudice. I don't really care what you think of me as a person, but please remain civil. Misplaced Pages:Assume good faith may be an important matter to keep in mind in your future editing. Your post on the talk page directed at me is what we call an ad hominim attack: an attack on the person, rather than the content. This is not something fit for an article talk page.

Please consider this a friendly reminder, because I feel that you are not an unreasonable editor, though you may be too quick to judge other editors on this article. If you unfortunately prove my opinion wrong, then the current matter will need dispute resolution assistance.

Finally, I encourage you again to discuss the matter on the talk page. I have pointed you towards an article which I think you can benefit from reading. If you have any views after reading that, please discuss on the takl page. --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 07:28, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Project talk page tagging for WP:VIET

Blnguyen had requested me for the service of TinucherianBot to tag articles in the categories in Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Vietnam/Categories for the WikiProject Vietnam. I request the members to kindly have a look , carefully verify ALL the categories and remove all the possibly wrong categories. Please Dont misunderstand by being cautious here , as we have faced many issues with such huge scale bot tagging earlier. Once I get the final go ahead, I will start the bot with the final list. Thank you for choosing TinucherianBot for the project,. It is a pleasure working for this project...I have also left a note at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Vietnam#Project_talk_page_tagging and request your comments there. You are receiving this message as you are a member of the project. Thanks -- Tinu Cherian - 06:39, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Religion in China

Please stop edit warring. It is disruptive. Please use the talk page and discuss disputed changes. Continued disruption could result in page protection or blocking of your account. - Rjd0060 (talk) 04:19, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

See also: Misplaced Pages:Fringe theories

Certain red flags should prompt editors to examine the sources for a given claim:

  • surprising or apparently important claims not covered by mainstream sources;
  • reports of a statement by someone that seems out of character, embarrassing, controversial, or against an interest they had previously defended;
  • claims that are contradicted by the prevailing view within the relevant community, or which would significantly alter mainstream assumptions, especially in science, medicine, history, politics, and biographies of living persons. This is especially true when proponents consider that there is a conspiracy to silence them.

Exceptional claims in Misplaced Pages require high-quality reliable sources; if such sources are not available, the material should not be included. Also be sure to adhere to other policies, such as the policy for biographies of living persons and the undue weight provision of Misplaced Pages:Neutral point of view."

I do believe this claim of over 100 million Muslims in China falls under an exceptional claim, and although the claim comes from a webpage by BBC, there are no sources backing this claim, meaning the webpage makes no attempt to back its numbers of "100 million", so yes are you are correct in your case against Editingman.

Mormonism and Christianity

Why did you change my revision to Religion in the United States? I said that Mormonism is technically not a denomination of Christianity. You see, Mormons believe that the Bible is the word of God, but they also believe that the Book of Mormon is a section of the cannon. Christianity does not believe this to be the case, as Christians don't believe the Book of Mormon was inspired by God. To say Mormonism is Christianity is like saying that Christianity is Judaism, as both religions believe the old Testament is inspired, but Judaism teaches that the New Testamant is not the word of God. Have you ever wondered why Mormon Temples never display a Cross, the symbol for Christianity, or represent them self with a fish, another Christian symbol? I would appreciate it if you would reinstate my revisions. Thanks Me.gusta.destrozar 17:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Suspected hoax article

Hi. I was just wondering whether you could check out Lý Long Tường and see for yourself whether the article as it stands is a hoax. Although the historical figure described probably exists, I have strong reasons (mostly geographic) to believe that a large proportion of the article is simply blatant pseudo-history. I noticed that most, if not all, of the sources are from communist regimes or their agencies.

You might also want to check out Vietnamese people in Korea. The first section of this article also seems to be gibberish; fortunately, the rest seems plausible. David873 (talk) 13:14, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Vietnamese people

I removed that tidbit because it's been unreferenced for over a year. I thought it'd be okay to remove it, but I guess not. I doubt you can find any sources for that... Lady Galaxy 23:27, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Template:Miss Venezuela winners in the Grand Slam pageants

Hello, Susana Duijm is how she is recognized. Nobody knows her first name like you wanna put. Please dont change again. --Anothercountry (talk) 13:58, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: August 2008

1. Cite your source when making the edit in question. (It's not in the article) 2. If you want to use their personal connection then write in the article they are room-mates for a year, instead at the bottom of the page. ("Miss Venezuela winners in the Grand Slam pageants" is more appropriate because she was in the Miss Venezuela pageant) Above all, Miss Teen USA and Miss USA are not Miss Venezuela, or in this case Miss Universe either. If you want to draw the parallel you are perfectly right to do so on the Miss Universe Organization page.

Also why the 3rr? there are only 2. And at any rate, considering we are the stage we began before this 24-hour period and only the two of us have edited since my original revert, doesn't that mean we are BOTH on a 2rr??

Anyhoo, want to move this to the discussion page? Lihaas (talk) 19:35, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Buddhism in Central Asia

Hello. Could you please ad the link into the article, that states that Buddhism never developed a missionary movement, as that is a very strong opening statement, and one that should require verifiability. Thanks in advance. Scythian77 (talk) 16:15, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

"AKA Sythian1"

Oh, and I noticed that you seemed to suggest that I am another user with multiple handles, namely a "Sythian1". Unless you have proof of this, please refrain from such childish attacks. It wastes everyone's time. Thank you. Scythian77 (talk) 05:20, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

About vandalism

Hi Angelo, It wasn't my intention. I am just making corrections when there are mistakes or wrong information. Is there any problem with the manner I proceed? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moroccansahraoui (talk • contribs) 14:08, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. indeed please both discuss the matter at Talk:List of flags by country. -- lucasbfr 14:22, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: AIV

Hi, I have declined to block 59.92.136.219 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) for the following reasons: Stale report. Blocks are preventative, not intended to be used as punishment.. The warnings were also issued in cascade well after the vandalism stopped.

If you have further questions, don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. -- lucasbfr 17:00, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

De nada y gracias

You're welcome, but I ought to be thanking you for reverting most of the edits by that anonymous editor. That same editor has done that before; I have dial up, and I wasn't looking forward to having to check all the edits, revert them if necessary, and put the warnings on his page. I always try and make sure the statistics are correct and sourced on those pages because many times people either just make up numbers or use exaggerated numbers from unreliable sources. Thanks again. Kman543210 (talk) 15:59, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
