Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 02:54, 27 February 2015

New messages, questions, comments: Put at very bottom of page, see text of this section

Please put new messages at the very bottom of the page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 08:39, 13 December 2012 (UTC) To clarify, the new item should not be below this message and not below the repeated message after my introductory paragraphs but at the very bottom of the page after every other item on the page. It will help me to understand what you are talking about to add a section heading, identify the article you are concerned with (if your question or comment refers to a specific article), using a link, probably putting the article title in the heading, and sign your edit with four tildes (~~~~) so I know to whom to reply. Keep an eye on this page because I may just reply here if the answer is simple and does not seem to be time sensitive. When I notice an out of order question or comment, I will move it to the bottom of the page and provide a heading if there is none already. Donner60 (talk) 22:32, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

User Talk page guidelines

Excerpts Misplaced Pages:Talk page guidelines#User talk pages While the purpose of article talk pages is to discuss the content of articles, the purpose of user talk pages is to draw the attention or discuss the edits of a user. Misplaced Pages is not a social networking site, and all discussion should ultimately be directed solely toward the improvement of the encyclopedia.

Users may freely remove comments from their own talk pages, though archiving is preferred. They may also remove some content in archiving. The removal of a warning is taken as evidence that the warning has been read by the user. This specifically includes both registered and unregistered users.

There are certain types of notices that users may not remove from their own talk pages, such as declined unblock requests and speedy deletion tags. See Misplaced Pages:User pages#Removal of comments, notices, and warnings for full details.

User talk pages are subject to the general userpage guidelines on handling inappropriate content—see Misplaced Pages:User pages#Handling inappropriate content.

• Personal talk page cleanup: On your own user talk page, you may archive threads at your discretion. Simply deleting others' comments on your talk page is permitted, but most editors prefer archiving.

From the section Editing comments, Other's comments in Misplaced Pages:Talk page guidelines:

• Fixing format errors that render material difficult to read. In this case, restrict the edits to formatting changes only and preserve the content as much as possible. Examples include fixing indentation levels, removing bullets from discussions that are not consensus polls or requests for comment (RfC), fixing list markup, using <nowiki> and other technical markup to fix code samples, and providing wikilinks if it helps in better navigation.
• Fixing layout errors: This could include moving a new comment from the top of a page to the bottom, adding a header to a comment not having one, repairing accidental damage by one party to another's comments, correcting unclosed markup tags that mess up the entire page's formatting, accurately replacing HTML table code with a wikitable, etc.
• Sectioning: If a thread has developed new subjects, it may be desirable to split it into separate discussions with their own headings or subheadings. When a topic is split into two topics, rather than sub-sectioned, it is often useful for there to be a link from the new topic to the original and vice versa. A common way of doing this is noting the change at the end of the original thread, and adding an unobtrusive note under the new heading, e.g., :<small>This topic was split off from ], above.</small>. Some reformatting may be necessary to maintain the sense of the discussion to date and to preserve attribution. It is essential that splitting does not inadvertently alter the meaning of any comments. very long discussions may also be divided into sub-sections.

Note that it is proper to use <nowiki> and other technical markup to fix code samples.

...............................

Please put messages, questions or comments at the very bottom of the page. If you put them here (immediately before or after this paragraph), as some people have done, I may either not see them or more likely not see them very promptly. That will delay any reply from me to you. To clarify, this should not be below this message but at the very bottom of the page after every other item on the page. It will help me to understand what you are talking about to add a section heading, identify the article you are concerned with, and use a link, (if your question or comment refers to a specific article), probably putting the article name in the heading, and sign your edit with four tildes (~~~~) so I know to whom to reply. Keep an eye on this page because I may just reply here if the answer is simple and does not seem to be time sensitive. When I notice an out of order question or comment, I will move it to the bottom of the page and provide a heading if there is none already. Donner60 (talk) 22:32, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link and bracket bot notifications

I occasionally get one of these notices. I fix the link or bracket, then delete the message, as the messages state is permissible, instead of further cluttering up these pages. Donner60 (talk) 05:13, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

Tahajjud

This is my first time so I have done something worth laughing your guts out then please do so.Anyway I am elatra and about the edits on Tahajjud I did not know about the honorifics so I am sorry about that,and I think the sentence construction should be "has been recorded performing",so none of us in my opinion is correct(maybe we could seek the attention of someone expert in grammar)...............................

(User:Elatra)

§

My messages to you only concerned the honorifics. Otherwise, I am not sure whether you are concerned with the content or just the way it is written. In any event, I did not consider that to be an issue. I suggest you add a footnote if you wish to change the content. If you just wish to change the way it is written, you can do that, subject always to the Misplaced Pages policy that anyone else can edit an article, especially if they think your edit is wrong or not an improvement. They would be well advised to back it up with a good reason or a citation, as well. You can seek some advice at the Teahouse or other notice board if you wish but only for clarification, not because I have disputed your grammar. Donner60 (talk) 03:04, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Yeah thats a problem

The WHO document is biased. It does not give a good summary of the prepuce, its topic is not the prepuce it is HIV. Also, the clearance one is not supported by literature. Literature says that it is cleared from the surface of the penis not the body.

I left this message on your talk page: Since adequate explanation has been given for deletion of above message, I have done so in the manner prescribed by the guidelines (strike through). I see you have already restored the edit so nothing remains to be done. I am sorry I misunderstood this. Donner60 (talk) 23:05, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Donner60. I saw that you undid one of my edits to the article Mariachi and I wanted to know why you fee it was not constructive. I feel you have made a mistake. Please explain, as I may revert the edit. Thanks 2602:306:36AF:7470:B561:7EE9:7A9D:676B (talk) 22:22, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

BEST,

Hello, I'm Donner60. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Mariachi— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 22:10, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

my last links

Donner60. Hi, the last edit I have made does seem to be constructive and assist any user visiting the page, I have viewed the guidelines and don't exactly see otherwise, can you explain? Thanks

I left this message on your talk page: I am deleting the above message in the manner prescribed by the guidelines (strike through) because your questions shows you did not know about certain Misplaced Pages guidelines and I did not explain it to you. Please see See Misplaced Pages:What Misplaced Pages is not, which includes, among other things, not a soapbox or means of promotion, a mirror or a repository of links, a directory or an indiscriminate collection of information. You will see that such a reference in the text of an article - advice to go to another web site - is not proper under several categories. Donner60 (talk) 21:51, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Stiernhielm

Stiernhielm's original name was Jöran (or Göran) Olofsson. When he was made noble he took the name Stiernhielm, he also "Internationalized" his first name as Georg. The name Göran originates from Georg(e)/Georgius. The spelling of his original first name varies: somtimes you see it as Jöran, other times as Göran (Both spellings have the same pronunciation). In Rune Pär Olofsson's book about Stiernhielm (1998; Georg Stiernhielm - diktare, domare, duellant) the spelling is Jöran, in the Swedish Misplaced Pages article the spelling is Göran. 85.229.0.138 (talk) 01:42, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

I left this message on your talk page: Thank you for the explanation. I am sorry for the delayed response but I have been offline since before you left your message. I am sorry I misunderstood your edit and I hope you will go ahead with your editing. I am deleting the above message in the manner prescribed by the guidelines (strike through).

New Message: Bureau of Health Professions

Hi Donner60, I am writing to inquire the reason why my edits to the HRSA Bureau of Health Professions page was not accepted. You said my edits. "because it didn’t appear constructive." I was updating the agency webpage to reflect a recent change to the agency last year. In May 2014, the Bureau of Health Workforce was created, integrating HRSA workforce programs previously housed in two bureaus: Health Professions and Clinician Recruitment and Service. My intention to update the Health Professions page was to reflect the changes to this Bureau, including the Bureau name, which is now the Bureau of Health Workforce. I am a HRSA employee. Please let me know if there is anything I need to do to make these changes accepted. Thank you for your assistance.

I left a reply on User talk:Roxane27 with suggestions and a welcome message. I deleted my initial message because of your explanation. I also left a welcome message which has some useful links about editing. I am sorry for any misunderstanding or inconvenience and hope you will continue to contribute to Misplaced Pages.

Ab (Semitic)

RE: Ab (Semitic)  with this edit

Hey! Thank you, Donner60, for your message. Please notice, that I did in effect not removed content! I did place the "Jesus stuff" in it's context, that would be the Christianity section. The simple term abba is just a word denoting the english meaning father - there would be nothing more to say (exp. a wikia link?). The specialities about it's claimed/suggested use in "times of Jesus" are not universally representative under the heading "Aramaic" but better placed under "Christianity", wich I then did. The sources to the replaced text-block are christian as well, more or less commenting the christian use of "abba" or speculation, rather than a real ethymology and scientific theory about the use of "abba" in «times of Jesus» (what is this a kinda time anyways?). Good faith edit, I though the replacement was self-evident and the context-sensible replacement of a textblock to it's respect. sub was worthy a "minor edit (old: M.E.) statement. Sorry for stealing your time. Undid your revert, in good faith, though --85.181.118.117 (talk) 22:28, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

I left the following message on your talk page along with a welcome message with some useful information: I am deleting the above message (my original message) in the manner prescribed by the guidelines (strike through) because you explained it. Please use the Misplaced Pages:edit summary to briefly explain such edits because the intention in the removal of content, including its rearrangement, may not always be obvious. I am sorry for the misunderstanding. Donner60 (talk) 22:42, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Bureau of Health Professions

Hi Donner60, Thank you for your assistance. I took your suggestion to link to a new page for current and future information and leave old information on the old page. This seems like the fastest and easiest option. Roxane27 (talk) 14:54, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Rastafari Movement

Hi I was Wondering what edits you added to the Rastafari Movement Page, please reply as soon as possible Thank you in advance for your time. (signed by Mi Name Israel).

I deleted ":)" from the page. That is all. If you look in the "View history" tab, you can find the edits of various users. Of course, if the page is long and the edit is old, it may take you a few minutes. Click "prev" next to the edit you wish to see and it will come up with the previous edit for comparison.

Regarding the terrible rock group The Styx

Hello. I believe that the characterization of Styx as a derivative, pretentious, cheesy, and self indulgent band is an accurate one and I don't think my edits should have been deleted.

Absolute Music

The edit I made to this page was to revert a vandalizing edit someone had made earlier that day, changing 'A group of early Romantics' to 'A group of early League of Legends players'. I believe you have made a mistake by reinstating the edit I had reverted. 173.48.200.190 (talk) 02:31, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

You are correct. I thought I was reverting the edit that you reverted. I am not sure how I made the mistake but I suppose I could have read the wrong column. Thanks for letting me know. Donner60 (talk) 04:22, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

I am a digital media manager for the school district and we need to replace a copyrighted image that someone mistakenly uploaded with the correct image.

This is something I should know how to do but in fact I have never done it. Please see Misplaced Pages:Files for upload. This page includes not only instructions but links for asking for help or submitting a request which someone knowledgeable can act upon. Donner60 (talk) 03:05, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Appreciate the help — thanks. I have done a lot of editing but several years ago -- so apparently I need to edit a page more than 10 times and then I will have the ability to add images. So I may do some very minor tinkering on this page (some word rearrangement etc.) so that I meet that threshold. Thanks again for the help! Tmelhus (talk) 17:12, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

Potsdam agreement

"XII. Orderly Transfer Of German Populations

The Three Governments, having considered the question in all its aspects, recognize that the transfer to Germany of German populations, or elements thereof, remaining in Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary, will have to be undertaken. They agree that any transfers that take place should be effected in an orderly and humane manner.

Since the influx of a large number of Germans into Germany would increase the burden already resting on the occupying authorities, they consider that the Control Council in Germany should in the first instance examine the problem, with special regard to the question of the equitable distribution of these Germans among the several zones of occupation. They are accordingly instructing their respective representatives on the Control Council to report to their Governments as soon as possible the extent to which such persons have already entered Germany from Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary, to submit an estimate of the time and rate at which further transfers could be carried out having regard to the present situation in Germany.

The Czechoslovak Government, the Polish Provisional Government and the Control Council in Hungary are at the same time being informed of the above and are being requested meanwhile to suspend further expulsions pending an examination by the Governments concerned of the report from their representatives on the Control Council."

The transfer of a whole population is called ethnic cleansing, you've never heard of it? 80.136.78.204 (talk) 04:21, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

I thank you for your explanation and citation. However, I think ethnic cleansing has the overtone of mass murder or at least extremely bad treatment. If any bad treatment was made, it was because of those making the transfers, not because the treaty required it. The treaty says these transfers should be made in "an orderly and humane manner." Also, the treaty asks that expulsions be suspended pending an examination by the governments concerned. I do not quarrel with your edit except for the use of the term ethnic cleansing. Can you make these edits without using that term? I think it would be less controversial, more accurate and stop any more questions. I also think it would be a good idea to cite the exact provision of the treaty and a reference to it (which you seem to have) so no one else raises this question. Thank you. Donner60 (talk) 04:30, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

To clarify: Use of the term ethnic cleansing "according to the treaty". Perhaps it occurred as commonly understood, but not because the treaty required it. Donner60 (talk) 04:33, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Deleted original message on your talk page because of explanation provided and thanked for latest edit. Donner60 (talk) 04:54, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Senusret I

No need to worry about that article for now, because User:Favonian has semi-protected it, but yes, that was Ararat arev. His behavior lately has been to insert "Osiris-Orion son of Ra", or something similar, into articles, often forcing them clumsily into a sentence. It's a small part of his convoluted belief system, which puts Armenia at the center of everything. If you see those words, or similar ones, being inserted, don't hesitate to revert. When there's legitimate reason to explain the relationships in Egyptian religion between Osiris, Orion, and Ra, it should be done much more clearly, not in the cryptic and misleading way Ararat arev does it. A. Parrot (talk) 20:58, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 22:44, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Notability

Hi I'm sure your highly noteable for something but unfortunatley they didnt provide suitable references so it failed to meet WP:GNG ;). Amortias (T)(C) 03:13, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

I am not sure about the first but must say that you are correct about failing to meet WP:GNG. Donner60 (talk) 03:15, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Not a Mistake

Unexplained content removal LaSalle, Illinois. There was an edit summary, I believe. Perhaps it was inadequate? I have since looked at edit summary and will be more concise in the future. Please tell me what you would like me to do, so that we may improve this article. --Etemtenem (talk) 18:21, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

I left this message on your talk page: I have deleted the above message in the manner prescribed by the guidelines (strike through) because I made a mistake in reverting the edit and leaving the message. I have rolled back my reversion to your latest version. After a few days, I only can say that I must not have focused on the edit summary. If I had, I would have looked further into the article which was where your rewrite was placed. I am very sorry for the mistake and hope this will not discourage you from editing Misplaced Pages.

February 2015: Való Világ

Hello, I'm Donner60. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Való Világ— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 22:45, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Hello, not sure why you undid my changes. What I wrote is true, anyone can check it by visiting the official website of the show. I update this wiki article regularly, I was surprised this contribution was reverted. Rhymane (talk) 11:29, 9 February 2015 (GMT+1)

I left this message on your talk page: I am deleting the above message in the manner prescribed by the guidelines (strike through). Your message indicates to me that I did not understand your edit. You have stated that you regularly update this article so I will assume you are keeping it up in good faith. I must say that the edit did not appear to cover a likely event but I will defer to someone who regularly keeps up the article. Admittedly, I am not familiar with the show. I could only judge this on the words included. I could not check this further because the web site is not in English (Hungarian). Again, I will defer to your familiarity and suggest you go ahead with any edits which update the article. I am sorry for any inconvenience. Donner60 (talk) 11:24, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

No worries Donner. It's good to know that people monitor the changes to prevent abuse. Have a nice day. Rhymane (talk) 10:06pm, 9 February 2015 (GMT+1) — Preceding undated comment added 21:06, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

Editing

Hey, Donner60. I noticed that, you removed most of the writing I did (I believe its reverting), an am just wondering if it wasn't constructive enough. There must have been something wrong with it, so I am asking for your advice on how I can improve it next time. Thanks for reading this! Nyse Vicente

Pyrolysis-2/19

Hello. I do not understand why you find my contribution 'non-constructive' and reverted all of it back. I significantly expanded on the pyrolysis of car tires using several sources. The last edits were a bit repetitive because I was trying to tighten up my language. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.124.129.106 (talk) 03:11, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

I was concerned about the non-English characters in the edit. I am not sure why these would be needed in the English Misplaced Pages. I should have explained that instead of using a template. Donner60 (talk) 03:15, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Non-English Characters? One of the academic sources I cited is in Thai and I translated to English. However, the rest of my sources are in English and so are my writing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.124.129.106 (talk) 03:20, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

I have deleted my original message on your user talk page. When you restore the edit, I suggest you include this explanation in the footnote so that the origin and purpose is clear. Donner60 (talk) 03:24, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

I have restored the edit. However I'm still a bit confused. Are you suggesting that I add it to the reference (I included a translation of the author and title)or the edit summary? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.124.129.106 (talk) 03:34, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

I have added the notation to the footnote. However, I notice that the reference is only to the University Department. Is this an article from a journal that could be cited or is it only on the University web site or in some other reference? Donner60 (talk) 03:50, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

I am having trouble finding the copy I used. However, I found another copy at http://www.vcharkarn.com/varticle/408, which is an educational website, under 'academic journals' category. I'm not seeing where it is actually published. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.124.129.106 (talk) 04:06, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

If the web site has the actual contents of the article which you relied upon, I see no reason not to cite the web site. It would be helpful if that also cited the original publication which you could mention as the source. Donner60 (talk) 04:31, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Noetics

Fallenangelius here – remember the wiki is not just a dictionary but a means for the world to share knowledge, experience, understanding and there are readers who will need explanation. I am sorry you were unable to understand my definition of Noetics but I was merely adding what was missing as the quotes are already there - but then I suppose you have to start somewhere! I am an academic and so much more – I must assume you are a PhD who has somehow managed to get by on quotes alone. If I were you I would avoid plagiarism lawsuits at all costs. I trust you are beginning to appreciate the beauty of pure “Noetic” thought which seems to be so elusive to so many! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fallenangelius (talk • contribs) 23:41, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Given that Fallenangelius appears to be sincere, I have started a discussion of this addition on the talk page of the article so that we can figure this out. Your input is welcome. Iwilsonp (talk) 23:58, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

Hillside Colorado

Donner60

Please revert the edit you performed on this page. I own the town of Hillside and I placed the information on the Misplaced Pages page as a current assessment of where the town stands and its proximity to other areas in Colorado. If you would like to travel to Hillside and prove me wrong or take pictures and add your own comments I would be more than happy to host you, barring that, you do not have an understanding of this town to make any edits.

I left the following message on your talk page: I am deleting this message because you have cited references to me. However, you did not put these references into your edit. Please insert these citations in appropriate places in your edit if you are going to restore it. Also, please put your entire edit above the boxes at the bottom of the page. The links in the following welcome message should give you helpful information about citing sources and about Misplaced Pages formatting, policy and guidelines. One more thing the addition of "" is not understandable to me. Is this supposed to be some sort of reference? If so, it needs more explanation. Thank you.

Re: Abomination of Desolation

I provided a reference which contains the reliable source. The 2nd King of Persia died from complications due to an automobile collision. His wife and mother stated concerning his incoherency, not me. When I got to him, he was breathing unconscious only out of one lung with heaving. The date is accurate and pans out to be in alignment with Feast Days in accord with other prophecy.

This is the second time the "Current Reckoning" has been vandalized. Please undo your error in judgment and see to it that it doesn't happen again.
