==Questioning minor 1st paragraph edits?== |
|||
:Thank you. I'm always glad to rid Wikipedia of crap and crap about asshats. --[[User:Marudubshinki |maru]] [[User talk:Marudubshinki| (talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Marudubshinki | contribs]] 21:05, 14 May 2006 (UTC) |

Re: [[John Roberts]], [[John Paul Stevens]], [[Antonin Scalia]], [[Anthony Kennedy]], [[David Souter]], [[Clarence Thomas]], [[Ruth Bader Ginsburg]], [[Stephen Breyer]], [[Samuel Alito]], [[Sandra Day O'Connor]]<br> |
|||
This is a small matter. I don't understand the reasons for [[User:Sjrplscjnky|Sjrplscjnky]]'s recent minor edits of articles about each of the Justices of the Supreme Court. After some time, there has been no response to inquiries posted on this editor's talk page nor has there been feedback from similar postings on the talk pages of each of the nine articles about a sitting Justice and the one about retired Justice O'Connor. Rather than simply reverting this "improvement," I thought it best to solicit comment from others who might be interested. I found your name amongst others at [[Talk:Supreme Court of the United States]]. |
|||
I'm persuaded that [[User:Sjrplscjnky|Sjrplscjnky]]'s strategy of introducing academic honors in the first paragraph is unhelpful in this narrow set of articles -- that is, in Wikipedia articles about Justices of the Supreme Court. I think my reasoning might well extend as well to others on the Federal bench. In each instance, I would question adding this information only in the first paragraph -- not elsewhere in the article. |
|||
::Wow your really a great unbiased admin, deleting legitimate articles because you just don't like their subject. |
|||
::How in go'ds name did you become an admin when you can allow yourself openly admit you deleted the article because you don't like the group? How did other admins nominate a person? This is really sad, Wikipedia is supposed to be changed by discussion, not by feeling-based rash action. |
|||
In support of my view that this edit should be reverted, please consider re-visiting articles written about the following pairs of jurists. |
|||
::"State your point; don't prove it experimentally" |
|||
:* A1. [[Benjamin Cardozo]] |
|||
:* A2. [[Learned Hand]] |
|||
::* B1. [[John Marshall Harlan]] |
|||
::* B2. [[John Marshall Harlan II]] |
|||
The question becomes: Would the current version of the Wikipedia article about any one of them -- or either pair -- be improved by academic credentials in the introductory paragraph? I think not. |
|||
Perhaps it helps to repeat a wry argument Kathleen Sullivan of Stanford Law makes when she suggests that some on the Harvard Law faculty do wonder how [[Antonin Scalia]] avoided learning what others have managed to grasp about the processes of judging? I would hope this anecdote gently illustrates the point. |
|||
::As an admin you should really abide by this statement, if you don't like the "asshats" of the myg0t community you can express this in its proper forum, deleting the article without discussion just shows that you should never have been trusted with admin rights. |
|||
Less humorous, but an even stronger argument is the one [[Clarence Thomas]] makes when he mentions wanting to return his law degree to Yale. |
|||
:::There are some cases in which bold action must be taken; such actions are the reason admins are given such latitude. This is just such a case. --[[User:Marudubshinki |maru]] [[User talk:Marudubshinki| (talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Marudubshinki | contribs]] 06:32, 31 May 2006 (UTC) |
|||
As you can see, I'm questioning relatively trivial edit; but I hope you agree that this otherwise plausible "improvement" should be removed from introductory paragraphs of ten articles. If not, why not? |
|||
::::I really wanted to read the article about myg0t, specifically to see if there was any information regarding why their site was down. You should delete GNAA when it comes up for deletion too, their a bunch of asshats aswell. Since obviously you have that kind of latitude :) [[User:146.9.223.86|146.9.223.86]] 18:14, 23 June 2006 (UTC) |

==AfD nomination of [[Hypercom]]== |
|||
::::::Ooh, a sarcasm detector. Oh, that's a ''real'' useful invention. I came to wikipedia to see why [[The Pirate Bay]] was down too, its a logical place to go. Their site has been down for months apparently (from discussions I gathered on its and your talk page) I'm not affiliated with them in anyway, though I remember running into them years ago when I used to play [[Counter Strike|CS]]:1.1 - 1.4. I saw a [[ytmnd]] saying that their site was down, I thought I remembered them, went to the site to find it was in fact down. I remembered the CS thing and went to wikipedia to see if there was an article I can read up on. The most information I've gotten now is from a [[newgrounds]] flash movie. I really like Wikipedia as a treasure trove of information and would rather see most information cateloged and indexed rather than deleted (I liked the way you guys forced ytmnd to catalog the details of their history themselves though). As a gamer I know of their notability and maybe you think by deleting their article you can make them less notable, because I guess notability is what they want. But that's censorship, you need to take the good ''and'' the bad if you truely believe in anti-censorship. --[[User:68.40.0.189|68.40.0.189]] 18:18, 24 June 2006 (UTC) (same guy as 146, different IP, I probably should get a user name). |

:::::::Dude, they are definitely notable. I heard about myg0t within a week after I played CS for the first time. They're '''notorious''' in the CS subculture. There's an entire article about [[de_dust|CS '''''MAPS''''']] for christ's sake! The article should exist to provide unbaised, factual information about a prominent CS clan to those who want the information. Instead, you simply delete the article in an attempt to delete myg0t.

==Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Dan-lispmachine.jpg== |

:: The bot is also incorrecting legitimate uses of "the the" (uncapitalized). For example, it did this for the film title ''Attack of the the Eye Creatures'' in [[List of Mystery Science Theater 3000 episodes]], which is specifically cited as an error in the film titling. (This is not the first time we've had to fix this "correction" in this article.)

:::One mistake. Out of literally hundreds (or possibly thousands by now). And notice that it ''was'' an error- just an error that apparently is interesting.

Notice also that I've suggested a solution which should work in the appropriate section for the particular error you mentioned. I don't believe hundreds upon hundreds of obvious errors should be left unmolested for the sake of one unusual exception that proves the rule; human oversight would have solved little here- it is well known that human error rates monitoring repetitive actions are... suboptimal, to say the least. --[[User:Marudubshinki |maru]] [[User talk:Marudubshinki| (talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Marudubshinki | contribs]] 03:08, 21 June 2006 (UTC) |

:Well, most bots (including mine) are running on a strict string-to-string command. If there was some way to mess up the " the the " string in the actual wikisource, while preserving its appearance, then you'd be set. What I would do is I would change (within the source of the actual page) the " the the " to instead be " <nowiki><nowiki>the the</nowiki></nowiki> ". This way, the appearance will be exactly the same, but the string bots would operate on would be quite different, and so they'll probably ignore it (but make sure you add in a comment why you have the strange formatting, or someone will probably come along and simplify it). Of course, you could also insert paired nowiki's in the intervening space if even that doesn't work. --[[User:Marudubshinki |maru]] [[User talk:Marudubshinki| (talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Marudubshinki | contribs]] 01:26, 21 June 2006 (UTC) |

== Propedeuse + user page comment == |
|||
Thank you for reviewing the [[Propedeuse]] wiki page. I added references and would appreciate another review if you will. |
|||
One thing about your user page I find very distressing. It states you do not use Microsoft products. Yet your user page states that you do prefer the XBOX over two other major game consoles, and that you are an intermediate gamer. Because the availability of PC-games for platforms other than Windows is fairly limited, I must assume that you are in fact in the possession of at least one game console, and based on a fact stated earlier this is most likely an XBOX. I must admit that the hardware is not a product of Microsoft, but the XBOX itself quite definitely is. Moreover, a wide variety of XBOX games have either been acquired and/or (further) developed by Microsoft, thus these games fall under the category of Microsoft products. Please correct me if I am wrong, but it can be reasonably assumed that you do use Microsoft products based on other statements made on your user page. |
|||
:Well, as I've said before, I run [[Xebian]] on my Xbox, and as the only thing in an Xbox that is actually produced by Microsoft is the Win2k kernel and the bootloader and such, I feel my hands are clean of Microsoft products (as opposed to Microsoft-''branded'' products, but that's another thing entirely). --[[User:Marudubshinki |maru]] [[User talk:Marudubshinki| (talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Marudubshinki | contribs]] 14:50, 26 June 2006 (UTC) |

* Straight link to Annals XIII, 20 at [[Perseus Project]]: [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/ptext?doc=Perseus:text:1999.02.0077:book=13:chapter=20 Latin] - [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/ptext?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.02.0078&layout=&loc=13.20 English translation (Brodribb)] |
|||
* Although in Tacitus' condensed style it is not always completely one-to-one which word is translated to which, basicly: |
|||
**"consensum" → "consentient" |
|||
**"diversa" → "differences" |
|||
--[[User:Francis Schonken|Francis Schonken]] 00:39, 27 June 2006 (UTC) |
|||
:Mm. It's still a bit odd; is Tactius trying to say, "I will give the consensus account, and when historians disagree with that consensus, I shall list their differences with the consensus account, and specify which historians hold which disagreements"? It isn't clear at all to me. --[[User:Marudubshinki |maru]] [[User talk:Marudubshinki| (talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Marudubshinki | contribs]] 01:47, 27 June 2006 (UTC) |

::Well the Church/Brodribb translation is let's say a bit old-fashioned "circumstantial" (after all that translation was made about a century ago). I'd have provided my own translation, but would find that a bit odd on the "verifiability" page (after all, the Brodribb translation is ''Verifiable'' by the given link) |
|||
::In short, Tacitus says something like: |
|||
::* If all historians before me ''agree'' on what happened, I just tell the story; |
|||
::* If the historians' tales ''differ'', I give each of the differing versions and mention which historian told which tale. |
|||
::Note that Tacitus' writing style is very ''condensed'', which is sometimes very difficult to imitate in English. |
|||
::Anyway, I'd still ask that you remove the hidden comment you added to the [[Wikipedia:Verifiability]] page yesterday, and move it, for instance, to the talk page, so that it can be answered there.

Some of them I even closed opposite my votes — I agree, it's even a little bold to close obvious ones, but I don't think it was out of line, per se. — '''[[User:Deckiller|Deckill]][[User:Deckiller/EA|<font color="green">e</font>]][[User talk:Deckiller|r]]''' 01:41, 10 July 2006 (UTC) |

== Please stop fixing my double redirect == |

Hi,<br> |

Earlier this year, I decided to keep a [[User:Smack/double-redirect|double redirect]] in my pocket. The trouble is that people keep fixing it. Could you have your robot whitelist it? {{User:Smack/reply-here}} --[[User:Smack|Smack]] ([[User talk:Smack|talk]]) 05:00, 10 July 2006 (UTC) |

::It actually has a purpose. I first created that page for [[Wikipedia talk:Redirect#Query: "Don't fix links to redirects that aren't broken"|this discussion]]. Furthermore, last I checked, it was considered poor Wikiquette to mess with other people's user pages. --[[User:Smack|Smack]] ([[User talk:Smack|talk]]) 03:24, 11 July 2006 (UTC) |

:::Mm. Seems pretty pointless- if someone wanted to test for themselves that double redirects don't work, then they can easily manufacture one. No need to keep one around; smacks of POINT. And fixing a useless double redirect in your userspace (not your userpage) hardly seems a violation of Wikiquette to me- fixing things is good. --[[User:Marudubshinki |maru]] [[User talk:Marudubshinki| (talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Marudubshinki | contribs]] 03:31, 11 July 2006 (UTC) |

::::It's a useful prop to a discussion that already happened; when you "fix" it, it breaks a link. And, since it doesn't disrupt anything, you can't invoke [[WP:DISRUPT]] except as a vague menace. As for the distinction between user pages and user subpages, do you really mean to suggest that I turn my actual user page into a double redirect? --[[User:Smack|Smack]] ([[User talk:Smack|talk]]) 04:57, 11 July 2006 (UTC) |

It's the first edition of the WikiProject Star Wars newsletter, and yes, it's a semi-ripoff of the [[Esperenza]] newsletter. I think it's important to begin with some good news: ''[[Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones]]'', ''[[Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith]]'', and [[Jabba the Hutt]] have reached [[WP:FA|featured article]] status! Kudos to the editors who helped obtain these achievements! |
|||
WikiProject Star Wars is also on a mission to improve Star Wars articles using the following ideas: |
|||
* An out of universe perspective versus an in universe perspective (see [[Wikipedia:Writing about fiction]] and the future ammendments to our [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Star Wars/Manual of style|manual of style]]) |
|||
* Evolving lists into regular articles |
|||
* Moving excess information and specifics to [[Wookieepedia]] (and providing links to Wookieepedia per the "see also" and/or "external links" sections) |
|||
* Enhanced communication amongst WikiProject members |
|||
* More to come |
|||
These should provide the basic steps needed to improve and "encyclopedia-fy" the Star Wars series of articles. |

As many of you know, lists of minor Star Wars-related themes are very common on Wikipedia; however, since these may be seen as violations of Wikipedia policy (and having seperate articles would breach ''even more'' policies), the tentative solution is to create general articles on a list's topic (for example, turning List of Star Wars devices into Technology of Star Wars, which allows us to cover everything from hyperspace to comlinks in a general encyclopedic fashion). This can be very tough for some broad topics, so the key is ''organization''. I encourage all editors to list their ideas on the WikiProject talk page. It will be a very difficult — but tangible — effort. |
|||
For an example, let me point you to the Final Fantasy WikiProject. Some of us over at that WikiProject decided to turn various components of ''Final Fantasy X'', such as [[Pyreflies]], [[Yevon]], and the backstory — into an article ''describing'' the world of Spira. Location descriptions were given a [[List of locations in Spira]] article, and the details themselves were placed on the [[Spira (Final Fantasy X)]] page. This is a decent template to follow — however, we will need to place priority on out-of-universe, "real life" topics and perspectives in realtion to the article. |
|||
Sounds confusing, eh? It won't, for examples will be popping up left and right in the near future! |

== Removing whitespace ... == |
|||
Hi there, I have a couple of concerns regarding your recent edits. For one: You're leaving an edit summary that indicates you're a bot; however, your username and userpage do not indicate you're a bot. If you've not already, I'd like to ask that you go to [[WP:BOTREQ]] and request permission to run your bot. Secondly, many of your edits have been simply nothing more than removing/adding invisible whitespace, which you really should not do. (For example, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bachmann&diff=63545794&oldid=57206513] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tadeusz_Sendzimir&diff=63545777&oldid=53644274] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Daihatsu_Pyzar&diff=63545704&oldid=63482860]) Anyway, until these concerns can be addressed, I'd like to ask that you refrain from running your bot. Thanks. [[User:AmiDaniel|AmiDaniel]] ([[User talk:AmiDaniel|talk]]) 05:08, 13 July 2006 (UTC) |
|||
:I've now blocked this account as you've been unresponsive to my above query. You should not run bots from main accounts (certainly not from admin accounts), should not have it simply removing/adding whitespace, and you need to go through bot approvals like everyone else. Please email me or add {{tl|unblock}} to have the block removed--do not unblock yourself. Thanks. [[User:AmiDaniel|AmiDaniel]] ([[User talk:AmiDaniel|talk]]) 06:42, 13 July 2006 (UTC) |

When you remove selflinks in the designation sequence for planes then you break the autoboldening of the link (see [[Fairey Swordfish]] for instance).

I assure you, I had no idea it was false information. If so, why does SuperShadow remain online? It is quite an insult to Star Wars fans everywhere.

Not all your reason's are valid, and you are extremely hated by most people for your continued abuse of admin abilities. Don't believe me, see above where they constantly ask you to stop using that god-dammed bot of yours but you didn't until you were blocked. |

Questioning minor 1st paragraph edits?
[edit]Re: John Roberts, John Paul Stevens, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, Clarence Thomas, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito, Sandra Day O'Connor
This is a small matter. I don't understand the reasons for Sjrplscjnky's recent minor edits of articles about each of the Justices of the Supreme Court. After some time, there has been no response to inquiries posted on this editor's talk page nor has there been feedback from similar postings on the talk pages of each of the nine articles about a sitting Justice and the one about retired Justice O'Connor. Rather than simply reverting this "improvement," I thought it best to solicit comment from others who might be interested. I found your name amongst others at Talk:Supreme Court of the United States.
I'm persuaded that Sjrplscjnky's strategy of introducing academic honors in the first paragraph is unhelpful in this narrow set of articles -- that is, in Wikipedia articles about Justices of the Supreme Court. I think my reasoning might well extend as well to others on the Federal bench. In each instance, I would question adding this information only in the first paragraph -- not elsewhere in the article.
In support of my view that this edit should be reverted, please consider re-visiting articles written about the following pairs of jurists.
- A1. Benjamin Cardozo
- A2. Learned Hand
The question becomes: Would the current version of the Wikipedia article about any one of them -- or either pair -- be improved by academic credentials in the introductory paragraph? I think not.
Perhaps it helps to repeat a wry argument Kathleen Sullivan of Stanford Law makes when she suggests that some on the Harvard Law faculty do wonder how Antonin Scalia avoided learning what others have managed to grasp about the processes of judging? I would hope this anecdote gently illustrates the point.
Less humorous, but an even stronger argument is the one Clarence Thomas makes when he mentions wanting to return his law degree to Yale.
As you can see, I'm questioning relatively trivial edit; but I hope you agree that this otherwise plausible "improvement" should be removed from introductory paragraphs of ten articles. If not, why not?
Would you care to offer a comment or observation? --Ooperhoofd (talk) 19:43, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

No content in Category:Optimizations
[edit]Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Optimizations, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Optimizations has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Optimizations, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Deletion of Charles Dickens and Jews
[edit]Can you please explain why you deleted the above using PROD back in 2006? I cannot for the life of me think why it was eligible. It was a serious article created after lengthy discussion on the Charles Dickens talk page to resolve a bias issue (disproportionality) in the main Charles Dickens article, and it stood without challenge for a couple of years I should think. The bias issue has now resurfaced. Can the article please be restored? Honbicot (talk) 22:29, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
