Misplaced Pages

March 2011

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Oprah Winfrey. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.  Ronhjones  22:35, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Oprah Winfrey. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.  Ronhjones  23:34, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 00:04, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Talk:Oprah Winfrey. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:06, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

List of Mexico's 37 most-wanted drug lords

Regards,

I have undone you edits at List of Mexico's 37 most-wanted drug lords which claimed 21 drug lords have been captured/killed so far. While your source does state so, the source fails WP:RS. Please use reliable sources when adding information. In particular, the previous source (Vanguardia and El Universal) are noted Mexican newspapers, but your edits removed that source altogether.

If you note from the table in the article, we have been able to identify Reliable Sources for only 18 of the 20 DLs reported captured/killed. If you have Reliable Sources for the missing three DLs that you could add to the table, we could then, on the basis of simple arithmetic, move towards changing the 20 captured/killed into the 21 that you support.

Please note that the reverting of your edits is not intended towards you personally, but intead is intended to maintaining the integrity of the article. My name is Mercy11 (talk) 00:34, 29 July 2011 (UTC), and I approve this message.

Disruptive editing at Black hole

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. --Christopher Thomas (talk) 02:06, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your interest in editing Misplaced Pages. Your edit to Al-Qaeda was successful, but because it was not considered beneficial to the page, the edit has been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment with editing, please use the sandbox instead. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Welcome back 75.72.35.253

I see you still have the habit of capitalizing every word you type in regards to titles. USA Today is not the only source. Shihri's survival has been cofirmed. He mentions events that have taken place after his reported death. An AQAP source confirmed Shihri was wounded but survived the drone strike. The family mistakenly believed that Shihri died. He didn't. He was in a coma but recovered.

http://shuaibalmosawa.wordpress.com/2013/04/10/shihri-back-from-the-dead-his-latest-audio-recording-interview-with-aqap-source-on-his-injuries-and-condition/

Your Ad Hominem arguments also fail because you insisted that Shihri died last September. He didn't. The Yemeni articles were correct about his survival back then too. When it comes to famous al-Qaeda leaders, their deaths are only confirmed when we have access to a corpse or the group makes an official marytrdom statement or "rahimahullah" comment like with Abu Yahya al-Libi and Abu Zaid al-Kuwaiti respectively. --151.236.17.86 (talk) 14:10, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

Wrong, his survival has not been confirmed. The AFP source referenced even noted that it was not clear when the audio was made and also contradicted an inaccurate claim by the Associated Press's Cairo office that al-Shihri was referring to a February protest by making it clear that no specific dates where mentioned in the audio tape and that such protests have been occurring in Saudi Arabia on sporadic basis throughout the past year. The conferences and planned discussions al-Shihri mentioned in the audio tape where also scheduled long before the recent report of his death. The Al Qaeda has a history of denying leaders are dead until they find replacements. They even released a video recording of Abu Yahya al Libi last summer and hinted he was still alive, but did not confirm his death until September.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 17:34, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Regardless, you were still wrong about DNA proving Shihri was dead. This guy is a vampire. I'll believe he's dead when we find his corpse. Anyway, looks like terrorists attacked Boston. Jesus. --173.169.84.59 (talk) 20:15, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Not true. The DNA report was false. I think those two brothers were lone wolves too.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 00:58, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Really? This is what you said (using your IP) back in September.

"A forensic exam, which includes DNA testing, already confirmed he was killed. Ive also done research and that story of his alleged survival has yet to be repeated anywhere outside the Yemen Post too."

Yellow Journalism

I guess that term can apply to the New York Post.

--173.169.84.59 (talk) 21:35, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

I completely agree. Please be patient the next time you think about reverting these comments.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 00:56, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Fine, then please let me comment on a Long War Journal article from November 2011 that could qualify as yellow journalism.

http://www.longwarjournal.org/threat-matrix/archives/2011/11/al_qaeda_only_has_two_hvts_lef.php

Some of those leaders were already dead (e.g Marwan Suri, Rashid Rauf, Abu Haris). Others are or were actually in Iran and not in Pakistan as the website claimed (e.g Saif al-Adel, Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, Mahfouz Oud Walid and Sulaiman Abu Ghaith). Mahsood Azhar is not even a member of al-Qaeda. He's the head of another group. Finally, Hamza Bin Laden is a minor member of the group.

Also, congratulations on proving Saad Bin Laden was killed. Zawahiri himself confirmed his death last September. I would have congratulated you earlier but you were blocked for half a year.

We noticed though that when you edited Defense of Marriage Act, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mike McCurry (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Shihri

I'd be more confident of his death if Obama, James Carney or John Brennan confirmed it like they did with Abu Yahya al-Libi, Atiyah Rahman, Baitullah Mehsud and Anwar al-Awlaki.--Nemesis928 (talk) 18:59, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Alright then/JoetheMoe25 (talk) 12:42, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations on being correct about al-Shihri's death.

I admit I was wrong. AQAP lied when they said he was alive. I apologize for not believing you. I was trying to be 100% sure because I remember Hakimullah Mehsud coming back from the dead in a video to order the death of Colonel Imam who was kidnapped almost three months after his reported death. Bill Roggio was right about him being alive for once. By the way, can you please fix Rashid Rauf's death date? His death is no longer alleged. His family confirmed his death. --98.221.96.139 (talk) 12:46, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Re: Many of Your Edits to the Iraq Template Are Very Unreliable

• 1st, the source I used for that change is dated, 15 June 2014. If you had scratched a little you would have found it. That source had been used for changes in the Syrian civil war map, so its not unreliable.
• 2nd, the source you give for Tal Afar states clearly that the claim of fighting in Tal Afar is made by the own Iraqi authorities. If we are going to give the parts of the conflict the reason, we must also agreed on every territorial claim by ISIS or the KRG, verified or not. That could be applied to Saqlawiyah too, so look for reliable sources instead of Iraqi government mouthpieces.
• 3rd, you are talking about Saqlawiyah when the sourced change I made was on Karmah. If you have a newer, reliable source that states that Karma is under Iraqi gov, its OK, if not stick to the rules.
• 4th, its funny to see someone who uses Iraqi gov. mouthpieces as sources & only made unilateral edits in favour of one side asking for neutrality, better look on yourself, dude...--HCPUNXKID 17:25, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

Re: I Suggest You Adjust Your Attitude and Maintain Good Faith

It seems to me that you look for some type of revenge or something like that, as you try to portray the other (in this case me) as someone with bad faith, POV-pusher, etc..., of course with no proof. I dont know what do you refer to with that issue about "Iraqi sources". What is logic and every WP editor with a little experience knows is that in war issues you cannot use a source from one of the sides to back that side alleged advances. Mainly because that could be agit-prop instead of reliable information, as can be seen on the case of the Syrian civil war. And in the Iraqi case, that applies to pro-Iraqi gov. sources, to pro-Kurdish sources & to pro-ISIS sources, that means, for all sides of the conflict. And unless you elaborate more what you are trying to express, that template will be erased soon, as templates of that type must be added with an elaborated explanation of the reason of its inclusion.--HCPUNXKID 22:17, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Evolution shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Last common ancestor

"All life on Earth is descended from a last universal ancestor that lived approximately 3.8 billion years ago." - not just apes and humans. Your link is just more evidence. --NeilN 20:48, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Also, you don't seem to know the difference between a theory and a hypothesis. A hypothesis is an educated guess as to how the world works (what you were calling a theory), while a scientific theory is a former hypothesis that has been promoted to scientific law after being tested with experiments and verified through empirical evidence. In other words, a theory is a fact. That alone would discredit you if "JoetheMoe25's uneducated opinions" were listed at WP:RS. While it's totally fine to edit topics one is completely ignorant on, it's a better practice to find reliable mainstream academic sources and merely summarize and paraphrase their main points. Ian.thomson (talk) 20:51, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Theory:a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained.

I know the definition quite well and that's what Darwin presented. It is only proven that people evolve in the mind and not the genes. For all we know, Darwin could've exaggerated to protest against Queen Victoria's pro-Anglican policies. Your opinion that I presented an uneducated opinion is remarkably silly.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 20:55, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

The study of evolution did not end with Darwin, there's been over 150 years of scientists since, and the overwhelming majority have found no better explanation than evolution, have conducted experiments that only succeeded because evolution is true, and found empirical evidence in fossils and genetics. Please actually read something about the topic instead of blathering with almost complete ignorance.

The mere existence of mutation completely disproves your claim regarding DNA. Or were you implying that evolution is something that happens within a generation? No one evolves in their life time for the same reason that no one inherits their granddaughter's eyes - mutation (and so evolution) occurs over generations of reproduction. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:04, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

In response to the message on my page: you're citing a colloquial usage from a general reference against the proper usage assembled from in-depth academic sources focused on the subject. See the E. coli long-term evolution experiment. Evolution has been proven, you're just sticking your head in the sand. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:08, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, but that is not accurate. These scientists only were adding their contribution to Darwin's theory and did not prove anything. The human traits thing was also long explained by Gregor Mendel. Many scientists and layman would also like to believe that the CIA killed JFK, but they still refuse to accept the truth. Please get your head out of the cloudsJoetheMoe25 (talk) 21:13, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Ok, because you refuse to learn, I'm going to just leave it at this:

Misplaced Pages only summarizes mainstream academic sources, without addition or alteration. It does not give "equal validity" to fringe views. Misplaced Pages is not a place to preach against mainstream science's "mistakes", and we do not allow users to try to "fix" mainstream academia's mistakes. You cannot change that, and attempts to do so will get you banned or even blocked because there's no point in everyone wasting their time cleaning up your mistakes. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:18, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

It's funny how can you claim I "refuse to learn." I'll going to keep laughing all night.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 21:41, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Tupac

We dont "compromise" on claims about a living person. Anything that Chuck Philips writes about Henchman after "having his life ruined" by having to formally apologize for a story about Henchman is not an acceptable reliable source. Particularly when they are in blog format. And particularly when they involve serious crimial accusations. And especially particularly when they are based on third hand rumors of something someone said someone else said. Completely and utterly inappropriate. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 21:35, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, but you fail to understand BLP. Until there is an actual reliable source making the claim, it will not go in the article. And since the only source is a biased reporters third hand claim, this particular story will never be reliable. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 22:06, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Edit war warning

You reverted changes made by me that have been discussed by administrators and previous reversion resulted in an editor serving a ban. The reason given by you "the truth must be told" is not an acceptable reason by Wiki standards. I'm not often in disputes so I'll have to look up getting administrators involved again over the same subject. I explained in great detail what is wrong with the USA today article on the talk page. My advice would be to object their, not by reverting what has already reached consensus. Jackhammer111 (talk) 05:40, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Please stop continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Misplaced Pages, as you did to Lochtegate, without resolving the problem that the template refers to.

August 2016 Lochtegate

Your addition to Lochtegate regarding the USA Today investigation is well-intentioned, but it's overly long and doesn't summarize what's in the cited source, and that version you wrote has a lot of original research in it. See WP:OR for guidelines on how to avoid that problem. I'm removing it for now, in favor of writing a one or two-sentence summary, and per WP:CYCLE, it needs to stay off the article page until consensus is reached on the talk page. Please see the talk page to participate in that discussion, which I feel you should be a part of. ArchieOof (talk) 21:21, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  Laser brain (talk) 00:01, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

USA Today article

I'm sorry to see you have been blocked for a week, as I do believe there's a need to include a mention of the USA Today investigation in the Lochtegate article (although the huge addition you first added was probably WP:UNDUE). You can still be a part of the process to come up with an appropriate sentence or two sourced by that article. It seems that you are not yet familiar with how collaboration on Misplaced Pages works, but it's not too late. I would suggest reading Misplaced Pages:Consensus; it may seem long but there's a lot of information there that will help you. ArchieOof (talk) 12:54, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Racism in Israel. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Your edit summary included a personal attack. Please stop or I will report you at the appropriate noticeboard. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 23:02, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Please do not question a judgement I made from observation. Your pathetic Black Power bitching will also get you nowhere fast. I've dealt with editors like you in the past and I am certainly not intimidated by your threats.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 01:38, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Just keep it up. — Malik Shabazz /_Stalk 01:46, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

You've been here a long time, and I usually wouldn't give someone of your tenure a templated warning, but nevertheless, here it is:

Your recent editing history at Racism in Israel shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially, because the page is currently under restrictions from the Arbitration Committee, if you violate the one-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than one revert on a single page with active Arbitration Committee restrictions restrictions within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the one-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the one-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. agtx 02:36, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Your New Left rhetoric does not intimidate me in anyway.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 03:02, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.

Sorry

Sorry for my revert at the Ben Gurion article. I searched for the wrong term and missed that it is in the article. Debresser (talk) 17:18, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

Warning

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Specifically, there is a one-revert per day limit on these articles. If your edit has been reverted, take a few minutes to discuss it on the talk page. Assume that other editors believe they have a good reason for reverting you, so explain why you think they are mistaken rather than edit-war. “WarKosign” 06:40, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

Just saw this by chance, and decided to add a little warning to please take this serious, because sanctions are swift and quite merciless in this area. Debresser (talk) 06:51, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the ] or ]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. 

Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" ). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

Your recent edits pertaining to Lee Harvey Oswald

Hello JoetheMoe25,

You recently added content about Oswald's trip to Mexico to several pages. For example, you wrote at Lee Harvey Oswald, "A CIA cable recorded on November 23, 1963 and declassified in 2017 revealed that Oswald was staying in the Soviet and Cuban Embassies during this trip and that a CIA agent who worked in the Soviet Embassy as a Russian translator was able to identify him due to his poor ability to speak Russian."

First of all, you should not be using a primary source like the cable itself as a reference here. Instead use a secondary source like an academic expert or a reporter writing about the cable. Secondly, you are not accurately representing the contents of the cable. Oswald visited the Soviet and Cuban diplomatic compounds. He did not "stay in" those places, as his visits were brief. And the CIA translator was not working in the Russian embassy. The CIA translator was translating wiretapped communications.

Please remove this material unless you can properly reference it and correct it so that it is accurate. If you do not do so promptly, I will revert all of it. Thank you. Cullen Let's discuss it 21:48, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

An edit is not an email and yes it was based on exactly what the cable said. No more nonsense please.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 21:52, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

I corrected the spell checker typo and meant "edit" not "email". Sorry for that.

No, the cable does not say Oswald was "staying in" those diplomatic compounds and does not say that the CIA translator was working in the Russian embassy. Where do you get that? Cullen Let's discuss it 22:15, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

Yes it does say so and that he was at the Cuban Embassy with a woman named Silvia Duran when he called to the Soviet embassy and noted how he just stayed there and gave them his address. Duration of the stay, however, does not always mean overnight, a word which I did not use.JoetheMoe25 (talk) 22:19, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

Your recent edit better reflect what the cable actually says. Thanks. Please try to find a secondary source that analyzes this cable. Cullen Let's discuss it 23:01, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

October 2017

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Herbert Marcuse. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors.
