Articles with Known/Suspected CoI/UPE Edits


Feel free to copy-paste messages from my other talk pages here if I missed any.

August 2023

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Talk:1 John 2:1, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 04:27, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Materialscientist: The page solely consists of a notice that the page contains a broken anchor, which I had just fixed in the edit before, and removing the notice is necessary to remove the page from the relevant category. 2603:8001:4542:28FB:A468:F8F8:B0F1:6EA9 (talk) 04:36, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Follow-up on Leon Henkin

It appears that Henkin, L. (1996). "The discovery of my completeness proofs", Bulletin of Symbolic Logic, vol. 2(2), 127-158 https://www.jstor.org/stable/421107 . may be of interest to your researches. In it, Henkin publishes a method (that of using English as a meta-language) for mathematical discovery which he learned from Alonzo Church (the logistic method) and Ernst Nagel (an example of honesty and forth-rightness). -- Ancheta Wis   (talk | contribs) 17:26, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia!

Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello IP user. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Scope creep, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge. Although you're free to perform most tasks on Wikipedia without registering, it's highly recommended you create an account as there are many added benefits. It's private and secure and it's also free, simple, and quick to do.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
  Introduction to Wikipedia
  The five pillars of Wikipedia
  Editing tutorial
  How to edit a page
  Simplified Manual of Style
  The basics of Wikicode
  How to develop an article
  How to create an article
  Help pages
  What Wikipedia is not
 Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
  Do be bold
  Do assume good faith
  Do be civil
  Do keep cool!
  Do maintain a neutral point of view
  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
  Don't commit vandalism
  Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
  Ask a question
 or you can:
  Get help at the Teahouse
 or even:
  Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{Help me}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
  Perform maintenance tasks
            
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates
  Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
  Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. If you register an account, you can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you could put a link to it on your user page.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your IP address linked to your contributions page (however, if you create an account, your IP address will be hidden and you will be able to build a custom signature that can link to your own user page), a link to this IP's talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Joseph Lister

Thanks for the update to the Joseph Lister article. I saw your comment. I know the lede is pretty stonkingingly bad. I wrote i and though it was excellent and then in the interim, months doing research I realised its junk. Its 2 years away from being complete. scope_creepTalk 21:58, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry if my comment came across as demeaning; mostly what I was trying to say was that in his most important contribution was recognising the key principle that underlay the change in surgical practice, namely converting a chance observation into a meaningful application of the scientific principles proposed by Louis Pasteur. This was relating Pasteur's germ theory of fermentation to the origin of putrefaction in wounds., I wasn't quite sure what the key principle actually was. Is it that putrefaction in wounds is caused by germs, as predicted by Louis Pasteur? If so, I can simplify the sentences to make that clearer, but I didn't want to take chances when the article's probably receiving a couple hundred pageviews this very moment (Toolforge hasn't listed today's exact statistics yet).
The only other thing I really noticed was Joseph Lister revolutionised the craft of surgery in the same manner that John Hunter revolutionised the science of surgery—it might be good to explain the difference between "craft of surgery" and "science of surgery", especially because I and probably most people have no idea who John Hunter was. Other than that the lead honestly looks okay to me, though, and I think you did a perfectly good job with it. 2603:8001:4542:28FB:A09D:A4A8:8073:9387 (talk) 22:22, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, How goes it. The lead will probably need rewritten about 8 times by the time the article is finished. The the key principle is the bit I'm working on at the moment, that core part that was in the antiseptic paper and its followup paper. I'm still digesting a research paper on germ theory that expains exactly what his key discovery meant. Its been a while since I looked at the lede. Let me take a look. Two seconds. I like the suggestion on the Hunter section in the lede. I thought it was hanging but I know at some point it would incorporated into a bigger block. scope_creepTalk
Yes that is correct, that putrefaction in wounds is caused by germs. Lister himself didn't know what a germ was until about 1875-1880. scope_creepTalk 22:52, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'll try and fix that John Hunter section. There is commonality there between them, so what is, something in the process of change. I don't know. Its obviously confusing. I'll take a look at it this weekend. I plan start to start back on the article. There was 469 folk look at the page yesterday. Thanks for posting these comment. If you fancy updating please don't let me stop you, or any other part of the article. scope_creepTalk 23:00, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Why a /28 block?

Like you said, it doesn't matter much. The same unhelpful individual happened to get the same range in the last three incidents, but it's all the same ISP and we don't know if the ISP is going to arbitrarily assign them another IP from the same huge range at any later point in time. Did you get notified about this specific block somehow that detracted from your Wikipedia experience? --Joy (talk) 14:58, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I used 1 year instead of a shorter time because the first of the three unexplained reverts was a year ago. --Joy (talk) 15:38, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I mean, I found out because there's a notice on my Contributions page (which I effectively use as my watchlist) that I'm blocked from editing that article because I also fall under that subrange. As I said, though, a single article about something I never knew about doesn't really impact me (and I can still edit its talk page, so it's no different than a semiprotected article anyways); the main reason I left my question was more out of concern that, if things were to theoretically escalate to projectwide/sitewide blocks, a /28 rangeblock would lock out a whole lot more people than you might expect/intend (including me in this case--hence cautions like wp:range and wp:/64), and I wasn't sure if you were aware of just how wide a scope that block was when you placed it.

(Also, I didn't mean to split the talk discussion--I should probably change my signature to "(Actual talk)" or the like on talk pages instead to avoid that.) 2603:8001:4542:28FB:13D:3E61:A292:EAAC (talk) 20:18, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, the yellow box on top of Special:Contributions/2603:8001:4542:28FB:0:0:0:0. Sadly, it seems the only way to get rid of that is to make the choice of reducing the block to e.g. 2603:8001:b202:3294::/64. At the same time, what you're doing seems rather uncommon. If you like your IPv6 address, you could still just register an account with a similar name (User:2603-8001-4542-28fb or something like that) and get your own normal watchlist, and not worry about what happens with the rest of the netblock? --Joy (talk) 06:15, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, as this range block confused another editor in the meantime, I did go ahead and implement the change. --Joy (talk) 07:53, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can you please reduce the block or at least try to give me another chance to edit the article? I'll promise that I won't do any vandalism. 2603:8001:B202:3294:7C9D:795C:F963:DD19 (talk) 20:34, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I greatly appreciate your efforts to fight vandalism on Wikipedia. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

You are welcome to continue editing articles without logging in, but I highly recommend that you create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits. To make vandalism reverts easier you can ask for the rollback feature to be enabled for your registered Wikipedia account. If you edit without a username, your IP address (2603:8001:4542:28FB:7964:B9E2:F7FB:8ED4) is used to identify you instead.

If you find yourself cleaning up vandalism frequently, you might be interested in patrolling recent changes.

For the WikiProject on vandalism cleanup, see the Counter-Vandalism Unit.

Flammable/inflammable

Please explain why you are changing instances of "flammable" to "inflammable". In many cases, the accompanying source says "inflammable" so there is no need to alter the terminology. ... discospinster talk 01:05, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia article for inflammable itself states that The word "inflammable" may be erroneously thought to mean "non-flammable". The erroneous usage of the word "inflammable" is a significant safety hazard. Therefore, since the 1950s, efforts to put forward the use of "flammable" in place of "inflammable" were accepted by linguists, and it is now the accepted standard in American English and British English. In my eyes at least, regardless of surrounding context in the article, "inflammable" could potentially confuse someone; "flammable" is guaranteed not to. (And I'm changing inflammable to flammable, not the other way around.) 2603:8001:4542:28FB:BC84:B937:5E69:2838 (talk) 01:07, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
