RfC on Frater FiatLux

Hi. I've started this RfC about FFL's conduct. Could you help provide a list of all his reverts? I was going to do it, but something has come up. If you could start, I can pick up later. I suggest chronological order... ---Baba Louis 20:59, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

I've added a few policies violated. Which page was his jpg images deleted? There were four. This iwll help provide evidence of copyright and image use violation. Zos 21:49, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I am back. Looks like you did a great job on the RfC. Thanks. ---Baba Louis 15:24, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Carl Kellner

I cannot work on his bio if the lead section is dealing with history and bio material. The lead should be brief, dealing with matters following below. Zos 18:09, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't care how you edit the article. Just leave the reference. -999 (Talk) 18:10, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Appreciated. Thanks -- Samir धर्म 18:39, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Secret Chiefs

Secret Chiefs. This one slipped by me. Notice who created it :p Zos 06:26, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

I think you may want to reference, ] to add to the Secret Chiefs article. -Chai Walla 08:39, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

As I pondered week and weary

I happened over to another area in wiki and found something kinda odd...here. Seems someone doesnt want their questions answered. Zos 07:13, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Religion and Magic

Just so you know, it was by accident that the unsourced tag got removed (copying not quite all the text I wanted from KWrite). I do intend to go back and add some source myself later though, for what it's worth. SnowFire 18:35, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

RfM

Frater FiatLux has asked why the page is now unprotected, as this can cause more edit wars. I kind of agree, and since he is sincere, I am willing to look past our arguments. So I am asking if I relist the RfM, will you agree to the meditation? I will agree if you will. Please take your time to think about this. Thanks. Zos 16:14, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

What next

What happens after an RfC is made for someone (cough cough Frater FiatLux cough)? It seems to not be going anywhere at all. And I somehow think he doesnt even know what its being used for either. SynergeticMaggot 19:39, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Djehuty : Consensus time! SynergeticMaggot 20:09, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Is there anyway I can get you to fix the format of your vote on User:King Vegita/WP:Egyptian Deities? I added the proper headings for the survey and voted myself. I also made note that it doesnt really reflect the other proposals on Category:Misplaced Pages proposals. Its still his user sub-page :D SynergeticMaggot 19:51, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

I couldnt figure out how to add the name without your talk page leading to WP:proposals! SynergeticMaggot 19:54, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

I fixed the link. Seems both your and K.V. have a tendency to over-capitalize titles and then the links don't work. I hope it's ok to mention this (again) on my talk page. =) -999 (Talk) 20:16, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Again? No I just figured it kinda rude to use JMax's talk page for conversations, is all. SynergeticMaggot 20:43, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, you're probably right. I try to avoid long conversations on other people's talk pages, but not necessarily a short remark. Sorry if it bothered you... -999 (Talk) 20:45, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

No bother. SynergeticMaggot 20:50, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I'll take a look. Ekajati 14:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Wiki Project

If I create a wiki-project Occult, would you give me a hand? Just tell me to buzz off. SynergeticMaggot 02:12, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Well I made one if you're interested. Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Occult SynergeticMaggot 03:54, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Choronzon, Coronzon or Coronzom

It is not currenly possible to provide a second citation for the correct spelling, according to Dee, of the name Coronzom. The Dee manuscripts have not been publically reproduced as of yet. The documents can be viewed by anyone willing the visit the British Library, and anyone viewing them can clearly see the final letter is indeed an 'M'. This is not research as such, simply an observation following an examination of the said documents.

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place I'm having difficulty in determining the best way to contact you.

I have given you the exact reference for the appropriate Dee manuscript and would suggest you examine it for yourself. However if you wish further verification please consult Don. Laycock's 'The Complete Enochain Dictionary' Weiser 1994 pg. 98 Where Laycock offers all three spellings of the name Coronzom. He does not quote his source but, nevertheless, he obviously believes the spelling is valid.

Frustratingly Laycock fails to mention the page number of the appropriate Dee manuscript , the source of the coronzom spelling, but rhis is why I examined the manuscripts in order to determine where the spelling came from, otherwise I certainly would quote it. However, as I've stated, they are available for anyone who wishes to view them in the British Museum.

Once again I appologise if this is the wrong way to conduct this conversation.

I'm certainly not taking this as a personal issue, It's just that, to put it plainly "I know what I say when I looked at the page". The Coronzom spelling does appear in other texts, but, again there is no direct referencing. I'm assuming my own, soon to be published, book would not count as I would then be referencing my own material? My reason for including the Coronzom entry was not as self promotion, but due to the fact that this spelling does show up in some texts, chiefly Laycock, but also M. Ford's 'Book of the Witchmoon' makes mention of this spelling, and thought it would be useful if there was a wikipedia entry that reflected this.

Thank you for reinserting an entry. I was not too sure how to precede with regards to the entry, (I'd actually been away from my computer for a while, hence the lack of response) But I'm perfectly happy with what you've added. The only slight adjustment was the edition of Laycock's book, as I do not have the 2001 edition and was not sure if the page number would be the same as my 1994 edition.

Hello 999!

Sorry I didn't respond sooner - I've been "globe trotting" on business lately in Europe and sometimes net access is spotty.

So how goes it all? I don't think I can compose any new articles until I return to the USA in late August, but I'd certainly like to do an article on the Flying Rolls; there are some interesting historical quirks in their story, but I'd have to duplicate some old research and come up with the citations.

A "Golden Dawn teachings" article is sure to be controversial, since that's one of the "hot button" issues in the GD community. I suppose one could take a purely historical approach, but even that gets tangled in controversy - for example, the use of such things as the Tattvas or the Chakras, or the Middle Pillar ritual. Almost all of the "traditional" groups today use these practices, but they are not part of the Cipher Manuscript contents. And what's in the Ciphers is very "traditional" in another sense - Tarot, Astrology, Qabalah, etc. The GD system was not "new" in that sense, but a compendium of older sources. Crowley remarked in his diary about the disappointment he felt when after having been sworn in the 0=0 ritual to eternal secrecy under pain of nasty death to conceal the great occult knowledge he was about to be vouchsafed, he was subsequently shown the Hebrew alphabet and the signs of the zodiac.

Statement on Onslaught of Challenges

There are currently challenges made by the same three people, all of whom will recieve this message, on Thoth, Hermeticism, Hermetism, Cult of Hermes, Mental Gender, and Hermeticism and other thought systems all at the same time. Some people actually work for a living and have a life outside of Misplaced Pages. If you want to make challenges, you are free to do so. But when you know that they are all against the same person, have a little bit of courtesy and challenge them one or two at a time, and allow appropriate time for someone to actually do something about it. I am not a superhuman, and blitzkrieging me with all these challenges at once is unrealistic and shady. Try to have some patience and actually make it possible for me to work with you rather than trying to send me on the defensive and effectively make me leave Misplaced Pages. If this continues, I will have to make this an issue through RfC, Administrator's noticeboard, or Arbitration Committee. Try to use your time actually find sources to contradict mine if you feel that you have too much free time to wait around for me to be able to act on any given article.
