Three Kingdoms edit
I believe the Anthropological death toll for the Three Kingdoms should be removed from the list, since the figures for 36-40 million war related death toll had not been substantiated, we can all agree that this period brought about a massive drop in population but as for the exact figures that died of unnatural causes, those numbers can never be attributed, it could be much less, or it could even be more, depending on other factors like the birth rate, the rate of migration, the decline of population due to territories lost. Without an exact study of those numbers the exact death toll cannot be determined, until you provide me with a credible study that stated otherwise.~Almaz89
 * that's atrocious. If that was the case then barely anything past the Crusades would be listed. Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 07:31, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I do not want to pollute a historically accurate population census study, with your subjective assertions whose numbers cannot be substantiated, please leave it well alone, I want to keep the page as historically accurate, as possible, with no room, for personal assertions. I am the one who provided all the original figures to the census study, with no room for biases, and the material I provided were all originally sourced, while yours are based on a list that could not even substantiate on how those figures came about, I can tell you now, basing the death toll based solely on population decline is a very inaccurate proposition, I have reverted it to "one of the bloodiest period in history", as we can all agree this statement is non subjective and accurate. ~ Almaz89


 * Your failure to comply with Wiki guidelines will ensure you lose this case, you asked me to read the fifth source, yet it was the very same source I have read and provided, just how deceptive are you, and what is your obsession with embellishing historical facts? ~Almaz89
 * You have pulled up no Wiki guidelines. You're the one embellishing historical facts and it was not the same source. (I'll check it again to make sure) and I'm not being deceptive or subejctive.

Qing Dynasty prints
Hello there Kamek,

I noticed you've been uploading several Qing Dynasty prints such as. Where did you find these? Source says Scholar's of Shen Zhou, but I can't find it there. Could you give me a link? I really like em and like to see more of them. --Plunged (talk) 00:05, 13 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I don't see why they're not there. If you want, I can email you the files sometime because I have a lot. In Spring of 2013, most were deleted because of doubtful origin of copyright, so they were deleted on Commons. A few still remain. Sorry I don't reply fast.--Eric - Contact me please.

Re: Next time I'll report you
Hello Kamek98. First of all, I want to remind you of Wikipedia's behavioral guidelines, specifically those on civility and assuming good faith. "Next time I'll report you" is not a good way to start a discussion. With regard to My Chemical Romance's fifth album, it is true that they are recording. This is not something that I dispute and I acknowledge it as true per news reports. However, this in itself does not warrant an individual article on an album that is completely speculative. The album has not been announced nor has a release date, the only thing we know is that the band is recording. Thus the article fails WP:CRYSTAL #5: short articles that consist only of product announcement information are not appropriate. – Zntrip 04:10, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'm sorry. But when it is announced, I'm reverting the redirect. But keeping the album under the template doesn't harm anything? Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 21:19, 14 March 2013 (UTC)


 * When the album is announced I believe that it would be appropriate to recreate the article. For now, you can copy and paste the information into the main My Chemical Romance article. However, there shouldn't be a link in the template. The purpose of that template is navigation. A navigation template is a grouping of links used in multiple related articles to facilitate navigation between those articles. If an article doesn't exist, then it shouldn't be included in the template. – Zntrip 04:19, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Lady Guan
Let's get the facts straight. I'm not the person who proposed the merge, as you can see here. I didn't even participate in the discussion. But anyway, I agreed with Nlu's view, which was why I raised no objection. The eventual consensus was to merge, and what I did was simply to set it into motion. And in case you haven't noticed, I cleaned up the article and expanded it before the merge. You're not in Uncyclopedia, Sir Peasewhizz de New York, so please mind your language. Knights are expected to have gracious manners. =)   LDS  contact me 16:10, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
 * There was low participation, and as the admin had said, anyone was free to revert that decision. So even Kamek had acted rashly, it was perfectly okay for him to revert the merge. _dk (talk) 18:17, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, sorry for the accusation. And LDS, you have an Uncyc account? :D Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 23:25, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, after reverting the merge, you should have stated your reasons on the talk page as to why you disagreed. So, let's sort things out here since we're already talking about it here. Do you still object to the merge? And, to answer your question: No, I don't edit Uncyclopedia. It's a place for trash and nonsense, but I still visit it at times to see how 'humorous" it can be. Sad to say, I'm not amused at all.   LDS  contact me 03:19, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, lol. And I do oppose the merge, because the amount of information there was indeed enough and she is a notable personage of the Three Kingdoms. So I do object the merge and support the revert. What do you think? And another question, how did you know I was on Uncyc? Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 18:26, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * You told us yourself that you've been on Uncyclopedia these days. She may be a playable character in the Koei games, but that definitely doesn't make her notable enough to have a separate article. As Nlu had pointed out, she isn't notable in the context of real history nor in fiction (Romance of the Three Kingdoms). She was only mentioned by name in only one sentence in Guan Yu's historical biography. Even in the novel, she was also mentioned by name only. Unless you can convince me that she's a notable person, apart from saying that she's a playable character in games played by thousands of Koei fans, I'm not going to change my stand.   LDS  contact me 03:13, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
 * The Japanese Wikipedia article mentions folklore that featured her. I'm not against more coverage of folklore and Chinese opera (which are probably where Koei got their inspirations from anyways) _dk (talk) 19:05, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for bringing that to our attention, dk. Well, even though now you've provided a lead for our friend here to follow, I guess the onus is still on him to establish a case for reverting the merge. My command of Japanese is not good enough for me to able to accurately translate those sections, but I can roughly understand what it says. Maybe we can decide again whether to keep the article or not after reading the translated text.   LDS  contact me 01:26, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh yes, no automated translations (e.g. Google Translate), please. Dk, your proficiency in Japanese seems much better than mine, so you can help our friend if you wish.   LDS  contact me 01:34, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * If I wish. If I had time to write for Wikipedia at all I would write for my own projects. Plus, although the Japanese wiki gave references, they are not cited and thus I'm hesitant to just take their word for it, so if I want to improve her article it would take more effort and research than just a straight translation. _dk (talk) 02:00, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I cross-checked with other Chinese-language sources on the net. There seems to be more folk tales and legends on Lady Guan's life than just those in the Japanese Wikipedia article.   LDS  contact me 06:06, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Help with formatting correct way to request a name change
Hi Eric, and if you can assist in doing a Wikipedia formation for a name change. I have a new request in at Talk:Cuban missile crisis to recapitalize the name, but I don't know how to ping or format or even correctly argue a fair summary of both sides of such a request, so any help is appreciated. Thanks. Randy Kryn 16:14 8 January, 2015 (UTC)

Three Kingdoms edit war
You do realize that you are involved in a content dispute at Three Kingdoms, and that the three revert rule applies, correct? —C.Fred (talk) 17:13, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, but I'm trying to put it back at the original string of text as we discuss the edit. He's hostile and starting the war.  Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 17:21, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * That may be true, but you're a participant in it. —C.Fred (talk) 00:13, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
 * After consideration, I'm not going to block your account. However, consider yourself on notice to edit very carefully any time you're making a number of reverts in a row. The exceptions to 3RR are very limited, and restoring the status quo is generally not an exception. Also, even if another editor is being hostile, make sure you don't stoop to their level: keep your comments civil and constructive. —C.Fred (talk) 00:21, 9 erFebruary 2015 (UTC)

Star Wars
Thanks for the message, but alas, it looks like the game is already over and Chewbacca is growling. I really am looking forward to the next Star Wars film. The only name change I've been involved in this week is over at 'Watts Riots' where a decapitalization effort is underway. Some of us are rioting over it (sarcasm untended, I don't know how much humor is accepted on Wikipedia and never pushed the point). I'm a bit sorry I got involved in this round of wikipedian politics, have kept out of that for all these years, but the Civil Rights Movement thing drew me in. May the force (or something similar) be with you, Randy Kryn 23:25 9 February, 2015 (UTC)

Star Wars move requests
Thanks for the message. You do actually have a point about the project. It's been dead for months, possibly years. And that's true for just about ever wikiproject. I probably wrote that message cause I have the Star Wars wikiproject userbox on my profile page. But yes, the notion against keeping the films without their proper episode numbers is actually much higher on Wikipedia than people think. If you look at the talk pages of Episode IV, V and VI, you'll see various users bringing it up topic after topic, but all individually. The fanboys are always there in larger numbers always using the wp:common name argument which isn't really valid. However when the requested moves are there, these people are unaware of it. It's been like that since last fall.

I'd caution against doing another requested move until all users in favor of it are properly informed. I'd also recommend, if possible, that the RM discussion be opened at least a month. You could use the reason that since activity has drastically declined on Wikipedia (which is nothing but true), the vote should be given that time so all users are able to give their vote and be fair. If you look back at some previous move requests, the votes were almost head-to-head if I remember correct. So if you plan a little in advance, I think you can get it through. But as I said explore all the options, including opening an RFC, so non-fans can also leave comments. The check lists were a great add. Maybe create and fill one before doing another requested move so it may not be as bad next time. Yeah I totally agree, the removal of the episode numbers are retarded. A New Hope was only known as "Star Wars" for three years and was the only film in the franchise at the time. Best wishes.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 00:38, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm going to be creating a big evidence-filled userpage over the course of the next month or two. I'm not really sure how to effectively draw a larger audience into the discussion.  I'm not even sure what an RFC is?  But thanks for getting in touch with me.  Ngrams, which are reliable sources, PROVE the common name is with the episode number.  They may try to argue, that, the Star Wars Episode IV/Star Wars Episode V/Star Wars Episode VI search showing increased usage since 1999 doesn't mean that it included the subtitle.  (f.e. Opposition vote says, "You searched Star Wars Episode V not Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back") It isn't a coincidence that using "The Empire Strikes Back" is in decline since the late 90s and that "Star Wars Episode V" is increasing since the late 90s. Common sense tells that it is because they are using "Star Wars Episode V The Empire Strikes Back".  It is the only way they correlate.  The common name is "Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back/Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back".  Does that make sense? Thanks, again. Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 00:50, 20 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi Eric. By RFC, I meant Requests for comment. You should see how they work. If you get it right, you could see some large and significant input from non-fans. I also believe the usage of the films by just their titles is really for convinience. I remember when Episode II came out, CNN called it "Attack of the Clones."

My reason for mentioning all that I did above was that when I messaged users during the requested moves, they got back to me somewhat after the requested move was closed. So that's why I think we need some pre-planning before any future requested moves, which you agree on. If for any reason we fail on the requested moves, then I have some compromises in mind. One should be changing the title from Star Wars (film) to Star Wars (A New Hope) so at least the films title is included. Another should be removing the prequel films episode numbers, to make it equal. But I won't push it until all opponents of removing the episode numbers agree or at least share their input.

For now I think we should focus on getting back the film's articles back to their correct titles. I'll be contributing on and off on Wikipedia, so I can't say when I'll be available. So if you need any help with this, let me know and I'll see when and what I can do to help. Best of regards.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 19:37, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I have started a RM for moving Star Wars Episode X: Subtitle to Star Wars: Episode X - Subtitle on the Phantom Menace page, but I'd wait a month or two before RFC and then starting another RM on the Original Trilogy pages. Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 19:40, 20 February 2015 (UTC)


 * OK I'll check it out. Yeah I think it's a good idea to wait & prepare before doing anything.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 19:49, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Discussions? What discussions?
While you're probably right about there not being specific discussions relating to this specifically, with such subjects like the Star Wars films, it's probably best discussing changing the header before actually changing it. I see above you're thinking of doing something like this. It's probably best left well alone until there is a concensus. Just my thought. Quentin X (talk) 04:19, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't really see a big deal with it, but if it becomes an issue than I'll probably bring it up on a talk page discussion, thanks. Eric - Contact me please. I prefer conversations started on my talk page if the subject is changed 04:30, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Disruptive Editing?
I have reverted all your title changes to the Star Wars film titles in the leads as they do not add to the articles in a substantive why and make the lead (at least the first sentence) clumsy. These titles have all been accepted via consensus and as such should be left as they are. You can bring the additions up in the talk page to see if other editors disagree with me and see your additions as a positive contribution. However, after the long discussion on the Star Wars (film) talk page which did not agree with your article name change/move, it looks like you are trying to make edits by the back door by editing the lead of each article. This could be seen as disruptive editing and could lead to a ban. Please take your changes to the relevant talk pages and see if there is a consensus.Robynthehode (talk) 08:45, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
