Talkback

Hello, Amortias. You have new messages at Steel1943's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

CatchPhrase celebrity section.

Hi I just had a question about the CatchPhrase Misplaced Pages page. Recently, SolomanMckenzie added in a section about the celebrity episodes being broadcast and the winnings. and the like. There recently has been a crackdown on game shows like The Chase UK or Tipping Point Lucky Stars, where certain other uses have deemed episode guides and lists of celebrities to be fancruft and NOTSTATS (you can check the edit histories of both programmes). Even after this has been mentioned on both programmes, users like Soloman McKenzie likes to add in lists of Celebrities or episode guides which do get reverted. Would this section that this user has added be considered fancruft as well? This is an article for Deletion discussion that occured for a similar game show discussing it. any advice would be appreciated. http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_Hollywood_Game_Night_episodes184.160.203.195 (talk)samusek2~

Batch file

Please explain how I can properly add the link to www.BatToExeConverter.com to the batch file page. My compiler is my lives work. It started a software category in 2003 and it adds many useful commands to batch files that cannot be found elseware.

It also allows users to hide their batch file code and add an icon. They can raise code to ADMIN level execution status and embed their company name and copyright/version information in the file properties.


I was also trying to remove the part of the article that contains malicious batch file code in order to prevent ignoarant people sharing malicious code to hard working people. This can cost time and money to thousands of people if it is not removed. Someone could potentionally lose their job or even worst. Why was I blocked from making these changes.

I am new to editing wiki articles but I feel my changes are necessary. Please help me make these changes.

Always here to help.

semir osmanagich

What I really put are FACTS, which are always OBJECTIVE, because they are true and what is subjective is somebody's opinion... I am open to different opinions and I also included some of negative or critical opinions in a text! I have no problems with that... But, if Your whole text is based on negative opinions or few years old information INSTEAD of facts, maybe because facts include for example this person's success in some area or rewards or so then I wish to ask You: does it mean that "objectivity" in case of Mr Osmanagich for You or for the wiki? is that HAVE to be given exclusively NEGATIVE "information" and opinions about that person? Because it is obvious that ANY positive FACT, not to talk about opinion is not tolerating at all... Or?

Rob Stone

Hi Amortias, I'm new to editing wikipedia pages and I just received your message regarding my edits to Rob Stone's page. Could use your help with this page. I work for Rob Stone and I noticed that his page says: "The neutrality of this article is disputed. Relevant discussion may be found on the talk page. Please do not remove this message until the dispute is resolved." I would like to resolve this, would you be able to help me?

Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joycefdm (talkcontribs) 20:08, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi Joycefdm, the best way fo making changes to the article would be to go to the talk page of the article and click the new section button. Insert {{requested edit}} on the first line of the new section then state what you want to change, it would need to be in an I want to change X to Y format. The main reasons for this are that as you are employed by the article namesake there would be a conflict of interest in you editing directly, by posting the request on the talk page in question this will give an uninvolved editor chance to review and implement your edit to the article whiel makign sure it remains within the guidelines for editing.

removed content regarding "decreased risk"

Removed the content regarding decreased suicide risk because the section read like a pharmaceutical company advertisement and was inappropriately in the wiki article regarding increased risk NOT decreased risk. Perhaps a new article should be started for this PHARMA advertisement? Maybe we have enough on television? In fact the information cited in the content I removed was from an article sponsored and with data SUPPLIED by the pharmaceutical industry. Here is the footnote from the very article the section cited and used.

"Additional Contributions: Data were supplied by the National Institute of Mental Health (Treatment for Adolescents With Depression Study), Wyeth, and Eli Lilly and Co.

Financial Disclosure: Dr Gibbons has served as an expert witness for . . ."Wyeth, and Pfizer Pharmaceuticals in cases related to antidepressants and anticonvulsants and suicide. Dr Brown directed a suicide prevention program at the University of South Florida that received funding from JDS Pharmaceuticals. Dr Mann has received research support from GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis"

Hi, if this is the case then you can remove the information but you will need to explain why in the edit summary box so other users are awae of the reasons for the removal. Amortias (T)(C) 17:48, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

I left message as you suggested in edit summary reason box and was again undone. Told I was edit warring although i gave explanation which was cogent What do now?

December 2014 GOCE newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors December 2014 Newsletter

Drive: Thanks to everyone who participated in November's Backlog Elimination Drive. Of the 43 people who signed up for this drive, 26 copy edited at least one article. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here.

Progress report: The November Drive removed 26 requests from the Requests page and 509 articles from the {{copy edit}} backlog. We copy edited 83 articles tagged in the target months; July, August, and September 2013. Together with tag removals from articles unsuitable for copy editing, we eliminated July 2013 from the backlog and reduced August and September's tags to 61 and 70 respectively. As of 01:01, 1 December 2014 (UTC), the backlog stood at 1,974 articles, dipping below 2,000 for the first time in the Guild's history (see graph at right). Well done everyone!

Blitz: The December Blitz will run from December 14–20 and will focus on articles related to Religion, in recognition of this month's religious holidays in much of the English-speaking world. Awards will be given out to everyone who copy edits at least one of the target articles. Sign up here!

Election time again: The election of coordinators to serve from 1 January to 30 June 2015 is now underway. Candidates can nominate themselves or others from December 01, 00:01 (UTC), until December 15, 23:59. The voting period will run from December 16, 00:01 (UTC), until December 31, 23:59. You can read about coordinators' duties here. Please consider getting involved and remember to cast you vote—it's your Guild and it doesn't organize itself!

Thank you all once again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve anything without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Baffle gab1978, and Miniapolis.

About the page of Hassan and Ibrahim

Geomona (talk) 16:38, 11 January 2015 (UTC) Hi! My name is Merlin Ignatova and I am Hassan and Ibrahim's sister. Generally I do not edit pages on Misplaced Pages, but my brothers have already created one. As someone who knows a lot more about them, I decided to correct their Misplaced Pages. The name of their website in Misplaced Pages is correct to write Hassan and Ibrahim Ignatovi , NOT Brothers Ignatovi. They are familiar with their names Hassan and Ibrahim Ignatovi (Хасан и Ибрахим Игнатови), not as Brothers Ignatovi (Братя Игнатови).It would be easier for me to correspond with you via an e--mail or Facebook, because this page is inaccessible for me to discuss any the topic.

Geomona (talk) 16:38, 11 January 2015 (UTC)Здравейте! Казвам се Мерлин Игнатова и съм сестра на Хасан и Ибрахим. По принцип не редактирам страници в Уикипедия, но братята ми вече имат създадена такава. Като човек, който знае много повече за тях, реших да корегирам тяхната Уикипедия. Името на страницата им в Уикипедия е ПРАВИЛНО да се пише Хасан и Ибрахим Игнатови, НЕ Братя Игнатови. Те са познати с имената си Хасан и Ибрахим Игнатови, а не като БРАТЯ Игнатови. Би било по-лесно за мен да кореспондирам с вас чрез електронна поща или Facebook, защото тази страница в трудно достъпна за мен да обсъдя някаква тема.

Message regarding http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=User_talk:112.134.174.224&redirect=no

Hi Amortias,

With regard to the message you had sent me, I have never edited any content on wikipedia and this PC happens to be my personal machine. I do not know how my IP address popped up as the one that had made a change to List of former Buddhists, but I can assure you it was not from this PC as only I use this. I hope this clears up any confusion. Appreciate the message though.

Michael Tuts

Hello,

I would like to inquire why you deleted the article Michael Tuts? I saved the article earlier than I intended and was still working on it. However, if I recall correctly, the content of the article as I saved it did state he was the chair of the Physics department at Columbia University, which I believe indicates he is notable. I will shortly be posting some more information about his academic accomplishments and impact.

Thanks, Astro interest (talk) 21:01, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi, the article wasnt deleted by myself but by an administrator, i merely flagged it as not appearing to meet the criteria for inclusion on Misplaced Pages. If you want to work on an article before you publish it without risk of deletion there is an area located within your pages labelled Sandbox (link located on the top row of your pages) you can create an article here make requests for feedback and edit until you are happy that it is ready to be published in the main ody of Misplaced Pages. If you view the page that was deleted it will tell you who deleted it and you can request they move the article to your drafts for further work. Amortias (T)(C) 21:04, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Thank you for your response. As I said, I was preparing the article but saved prematurely. I'm wondering which criteria for inclusion you believe the article did not meet? If there are any specific concerns you have, I will be sure to address them as well in the text of the article. Astro interest (talk) 21:11, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
It would be worth reading the ] page to ensure that the claims of notability are met by the evidence provided. Pages about individuals should always be sourced from the outset so be sure that you include evidence from reliable sources to ensure that the claims made can be validated. This one was of the main reasons for it being deleted so quickly was there was no evidence to back up what was being stated about an individual. Amortias (T)(C) 21:18, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Thanks. I have recreated the article; you may of course check over it to make sure it meets Misplaced Pages's criteria. I understand that the article was incomplete, but Professor Tuts is quite well-known in the physics community, a simple google search shows. Astro interest (talk) 22:15, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Evidence definetly lends to the notability of the articles namesake. Might be worth seeing if you can find any Categories that fit to help others find it to help increase the article.Amortias (T)(C) 22:19, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

Downtown Summerlin page

Amortias,

The Downtown Summerlin Misplaced Pages Page had completely inaccurate and false information previously, I only updated the information to be correct and added additional, helpful information for people seeking more insight on Downtown Summerlin. I do not see why this information would not have a neutral point of view since it is completely informational. Please put the information back up on the site. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Downtown Summerlin (talkcontribs) 17:54, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi, the information was removed as it contained what are described as peacock phrases such as vibrant urban core lush landscaping. Although these features may have been described in this fashion elsewhere there use should be refrained from here on Misplaced Pages. Large sections of the changes were entirely unreferenced, inclusion of information should be supported by reliable sources. Amortias (T)(C) 18:02, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, I was going to warn him, but by the time I'd figured out that there is no civility template and moved on to harassment you'd already left one. Meters (talk) 22:51, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Thats fine I didn't see youd reverted his edit before I had already slapped the warning on, will let you have the next one :). Amortias (T)(C) 22:53, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
My edits are all manual so I often run into edit conflicts where I revert but someone else warns before I get there. No biggie. I just didn't want you to think that I wasn't going to warn him. I gave him another for more nastiness on someone else's page. Meters (talk) 23:01, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Redaction or Suppression Requests

Please do not request redaction or suppression of harmful posts at noticeboards or at the Help Desk. It gives greater visibility to the posts until administrative action is taken.

Milton Keynes

Hi

you recently sent me a message regarding my edit to the Milton Keynes page. I removed a link to the city status in the UK page as it is unnecessary and hasn't been added for other large towns pages. There is a section on the city status page referring to large towns and if these had same link provided for Milton Keynes that would be fine but as they don't I am removing the link on the MK page. I am sorry if I am not following the correct etiquette and protocols here, I am new to editing Misplaced Pages. I will read up on how to post and edit soon as I may have dived in a bit here.

Hi Prodspurn
Thats fine there are several policies regarding editing that are quite heavily enforced. The main one of this is Be Bold, Revert, Discuss. Anyone is freeto edit wikipedia and you should be bold in doing so. If you are reverted however the next step is to take it to a discussion on the relevent articles talkpage and gain consensus for the cahnge. This allows us to ake informed decisions in editing the encyclopedia. I'll drop some links on your talk page that would be useful to read up on. Amortias (T)(C) 00:15, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Lady-Darren County School System

For future reference, educational institutions are not eligible for CSD A7, school districts are considered notable (even though the editor didn't provide any refs, unless this a hoax, the article should be kept and improved). Here is the relevant info regarding A7: An article about a real person, individual animal(s), organization, web content or organized event that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, with the exception of educational institutions. Thanks. -War wizard90 (talk) 01:13, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Amortias, just a friendly note, I'd recommend not continuing to revert the guy just right now – it's not worth risking to get yourself blocked for 3RR too. Unfortunately I can't block him myself right now, as I also reverted him earlier; since what he's doing is not simple vandalism it's not really exempt from 3RR and all that. Fut.Perf. 21:47, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Fair enough, am of the impression that they are being intentionally disruptive now after multiple warning a previous block and the comment they left about the French at C.Freds page. Amortias (T)(C) 21:55, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Amortias. Just a quick followup on this user... his userpage was too self-promotional. It was clearly intended to drive traffic to his website, and was speedy deleted by JohnCD as WP:G11. There was also a problem with his username, as it was basically an obfuscation of his website URL. This violates the username policy per WP:CORPNAME, as it was promoting a commercial website. Just something to watch for in the future... thanks. --Drm310 (talk) 15:05, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Edits to Mal Brough regarding the Northern Territory Emergency Response

Hi,

You recently removed an edit I made to page: Mal Brough regarding the Northern Territory Emergency Response. As the single biggest event in Mal's political career to date, it is certainly valid. I referenced an article on 'The Conversation' written by a university lecturer and based on the work on internationally renowned journalist, John Pilger. I also cited a 'Fact Check' article from SBS broadcasting. Both have their own editorial boards.

Is there any reason my edit can not be returned?

Thank you

Hi, it appears that the same person who originally added the information has readded it to the article. The section in the lead appears unnesseacry as it is also included very soon in the main body of the article. It might be worth removing it from the lead.
If the edits were added back by yourself you should be careful as editing while logged out may give the impression you are using multiple accounts to edit wether intentional or not. Amortias (T)(C) 00:47, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I'm new to this so sorry for any inconsistencies with using the system. Is this how I'm meant to reply to you? I just added an account after editing but will complete future edits while logged in. I added one line about the Northern Territory Emergency Response to the lead as it is the single biggest event in his political career and of greater impact than other points in the lead. Thanks

S. J. Singer Misplaced Pages entry

Dear Amortias, In response to your question: Two references are included in the sentence I added to the S.J. Singer article. They refer to articles by me (John Lenard) and S.J. Singer that were published in two highly prestigious scientific journals: Proceedings of the National Academy of Scienes, USA, and Science. They are dated 1966 and 1968, hence pre-date the first "fluid mosaic" publications by several years. Their veracity can be easily checked should you wish to do so. In fact, Garth took up the membrane project after I left the laboratory; hence, I have called these first two papers on membrane protein structure from the Singer lab "foundational", because they did in fact form the basis for Garth's excellent subsequent work. I hope this is satisfactory. If there are any problems please contact me at johnlenardnoo@gmail.com. ≈≈≈≈John Lenard

Hi, the references put in on the first occassion wernt constructed correctly for them to show as refernce on the article hence the revision, they now appear to have been entered correclty so this should suffice. Amortias (T)(C) 19:43, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

February 2015, Pierce Brosnan

Well, sir, if you noticed as I've submitted modifications on the page GoldenEye: Rogue Agent and anything regarding to that of Pierce Brosnan's presence is absolutely a myth started by the fandom. In fact, Brosnan was never collaborated either with likeness nor voice in that video game. It all is a subject that belongs to Jason Carter instead who handled the role of Bond/007 in that entry. Feel free to reply. Thank you, and much obliged for the notification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZeroMinusTen (talkcontribs) 13:01, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi, if the information is incorrect then please feel free to remove it. The reaosn it was reverted is that no explanation was given in the edit summary to explain why the information was removed. Even better if you have a source that shows this was Jason Carter that would pretty much prove it. Amortias (T)(C) 13:05, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
Greetings, sir. On this page, that I do have a link to, shows footage of the character with the name 'generic' sculptured upon. I don't currently have a footage of the credits that appear on the video game where Jason Carter's name was enlisted. But, it is written on the game's IMDB page, in voice. As for the link, it is an interview with one of the writers who never mentioned Brosnan's existence in the project at all. Howeverm that single image, if compared to Carter's portrait, will be a proof, in my honest opinion. An interview with the game's writer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZeroMinusTen (talkcontribs) 13:21, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
