Hi, you tagged the above for copyright violation. However, the vio has been committed only in the later revisions and so I've reverted it to a non-infringing version. You could do the same if you come across an article which is not copyvio in its earlier versions instead of bringing it all the way to WP:CP. As that page declares in the box, "Revert the page to a non-copyrighted version if you can. The infringing text will remain in the page history for archival reasons unless the copyright holder asks the Wikimedia Foundation to remove it." Cheers!! --Gurubrahma 14:03, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

discussion of merger
(section titled with a nod to your "law student" status ;-)

Back in May you merged "Sky Burial" and "Tibetan Sky Burial." I think "Tibetan Sky Burial" should go back to being its own page, and "Sky Burial" should become a disambig page with refs to different cultures' specific practices, each of which should have its own page. Check out my more detailed comments on Talk:Tibetan_sky_burial and let me know what you think.

 * Excellent use of the word(?) "cretinously" in a sentence. ;-) I don't have time to work on this right now; what would happen if we start by just reverting both pages now? The Sky Burial page has had a few VERY minor edits since the Tibetan page was merged into it, and of course, the Tibetan page has had no edits since it became a redirect.


 * I don't mean to disrespect the time & effort you put into merging them, but then again, I put a lot of [major procrastinatory] time & effort into the original Tibetan Sky Burial page......... :-)


 * Then when one of us has time, we can make a separate page for Zoroastrian Sky Burial, move the substantive info from Sky Burial to Zoroastrian Sky Burial, and turn Sky Burial into a disambig.


 * What do you think? If you agree, please go ahead and revert both pages, don't wait for another communication from me.

speedy deletion templates
It's generally a bad idea to change speedy deletion templates unless they were obviously a mistake. In general, CSDA7 ("non-notable") is easier to check than the other criterion, and so makes the speedy deletion process far simpler for the admin in question (a common rebuttal of the "spam" template is that the article just needs rewriting). Anyway, thanks for helping out! yandman 16:41, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. Mytildebang 16:44, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. He's created it somewhere else, so I've put both templates up... yandman 16:57, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

(moved from my userpage) Ffxaddict899 17:19, 15 November 2006 (UTC)ok yeah i just have an issue with the fact that i have very little time on my hands and that you constantly trying to speedy delete these pages i'm makeing. i just don't have the time right now to properly write up these pages i have four more i need to make. and honestly, if you give me a day or two my pages will meet the criteria.
 * The pages don't meet the notability criteria. If the admin disagrees with me, he'll remove the templates. Mytildebang 17:24, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * yeah it's just that i already have two pages up and i just don't have the time to finish them. Ffxaddict899 17:30, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and copied the request above to the talk pages of the articles you're contesting, as the template asked you to. Mytildebang 17:31, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm not saying or thinking it was vandalism but how come you reverted my vandal count update? oO -WarthogDemon 05:25, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Whoops. I was reverting User:Mister Shamus's contributions and must have accidentally hit that. Mytildebang 05:26, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Weird, you reverted two edits lol. Well no harm done. And thanks!  :) -WarthogDemon 05:27, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Apologies. I put that up as a placeholder; I am as we speak (well, obviously not right now, as I'm typing) writing a respectably long article. I apologize for putting it up blank as I did; if you have no objections, I will continue writing a complete article.
 * No problem, and I appreciate your understanding. (And your eagle eye...)
 * The article is done, for now, and I would welcome any edits or criticisms, if you are so inclined to grant them. --Zero 07:39, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi there, I would like your opinion... should this article should be sent through the AfD process due to the nature of the comments made on the article's discussion page? JRHorse 02:24, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Muslim holocaust
You really don't need to waste your time giving editors like this the benefit of the doubt by asking for reliable sources, trust me. Just report them to WP:AIV. --Sam Blanning(talk) 03:17, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Professional courtesy
Hello,

Thank you for your stub submission. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types instead of using simply, if you can.

Thanks! --Vox Causa 02:39, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

I saw that you'd put a speedy tag on this article too. The user in question has repeatedly removed the speedy tags I've put there - I've progressively warned through drmspeedy4 with no effect. I took it to AFD, not sure if that's the right course of action? Perel 03:53, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Seems reasonable enough. If he removed the tags four or five times, you could also put him up on WP:AIV. I'm not sure what they'll do with him if he hasn't done anything since the last warning, but it's worth a shot. Mytildebang 03:55, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Seems to have stopped for now.. I will list on AIV if it resumes. Perel 03:58, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Yup, he requested another page of his be deleted. Seems the warnings worked - imagine that! :-) Mytildebang 04:02, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Guess he finally looked at his talk page. Thanks for the feedback, I'm still a pretty new editor and still getting the hang of the fine points of NP patrol. First time I'd run into this particular situation. Perel 04:05, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

BudWheizzah on deletion review
An editor has asked for a deletion review of BudWheizzah. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Budwheizzah 06:28, 16 December 2006 (UTC).

I didn't realize guidelines had to be met to post a biography or that it had to be accurate to some level. Oh well. I guess you did a good move after all ;-)

STRUCTURAL CORRUPTION AND ORGANIZED CRIME IN THE CHILD PROTECTION SYSTEM
Thank you for the welcome to Wikipedia. After listening to the CBS Sunday Morning piece on Wikipedia I spent the rest of Sunday summarizing the Congressional Evidence book I wrote on organized crime in the child protection, mental health and social work systems. I did this because of the comments on the show about the need for quality articles. Whether it was "Perel" or someone else who rejected the article, among the reasons cited were that it was "nonsense" and did not have historical content. To be polite, neither of those observations have any correspondence to reality.

I own and run a business. I do not have time to monitor Wikipedia or invest anymore time attempting to justify an article that should never have been rejected in the first place. I am responding because someone who does monitor Wikipedia was nice enough to e-mail me that your "Welcome" and other comments had been posted on my talk page.

What I did do is write and mail a 12 page letter to the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Directors and key administrators. I also copied Larry Sanger because my experience confirms some of his criticisms. The issue of whether or not I should be treated as an expert is irrelevant. The fundamental problem is that Wikipedia does not have uniform protocols for distinguishing material that accurately describes reality from material which does not. That problem was solved by Sir Karl Popper about 1929. The United States Supreme Court adopted Popper's criteria in the landmark decision Daubert v. Merrel Dow Pharmaceuticals.

My field happens to be sociology of knowledge. I have made some advances in the field that are the basis of my business, including a holographic paradigm theory of the structure and function of social processes that allow social processes, including knowledge processes, to be described mathematically. The theory and mathematical descriptors took me about fourteen years to develop and confirm the logic. I know what I am talking about. I use methodology derived from what I developed to analyze evidence in criminal proceedings. Every case in which I personally did the evidence analysis that went to trial resulted in a "Not Guilty" verdict.

Check out my web site, which includes my Curriculum Vitae, at www.thesociologycenter.com. If you would like a copy of the content of the letter I mailed the Wikipedia Board, request a copy at thesociologist@adelphia.net and I will send you exactly what I e-mailed Larry Sanger.

Thank you for being nice enough to try and communicate with me about my submission.

 * James, you might be interested in moving your article to the academia.wikia, where personal essays can be published and reviewed by other editors. yandman  08:09, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for this suggestion. Since it only involves cut and paste, I will try it. What are the possible consequences of having other editors review it?

Thesociologist 15:20, 16 December 2006 (UTC)James Roger Brown


 * Well, there are many academics peer reviewing on wikia, so you could get "discovered" and win the next Nobel prize. Or, this could happen (I found that one with a link from a Wikipedian's userpage). It all depends on you... yandman  11:13, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Wrestling
I believe the scope of the Wrestling page is to broad and needs be shortened to a more general brushing of the topic; such as a 'martial art'. Then add the links to the different diciplines that make up 'wrestling' all across the globe. Penciljunk 16:53, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Could you help me write this article?

Could you please review some wrestling articles for me?
I've found out that you've been looking over some articles related to wrestling. I was wondering if you could please review them. I've been editing them over the past few months, either logged-in or logged-off on a public computer. Listed below are the articles I've been working on. I'm most concerned with writing style, and whether it's concise yet comprehensive, and free from any spelling and grammar errors.


 * Wrestling - I didn't do much with this article, just added some a photo and elaborated the History section a bit. I also added a bit about Sambo to the article.
 * Amateur wrestling - I didn't do much here either, but made it concise enough to be a "lead-in" for the more specific articles for the various wrestling styles. Yet sometimes it keeps getting vandalized. It may needed to be protected somehow.
 * Greco-Roman wrestling - I added a History section, and elaborated the equipment, weight classes, scoring, and victory conditions sections of the article. I also made sure to cite the sections according to current FILA rules, as I did for the secondary and tertiary sources I used for the history section.
 * Freestyle wrestling - Same additions and editing as with the Greco-Roman page.
 * Collegiate wrestling - This, along with the Scholastic wrestling page, I consider to be my masterpiece, haha. I added a History section, and did the same as with the Greco-Roman and freestyle pages, only with even greater detail, since I had the NCAA wrestling rules with me. It is also appropriately cited.
 * History of collegiate wrestling - I created this article after the History section I added to collegiate wrestling was getting too long. I then took the liberty of elaborating more on the history of American wrestling. Cited as well.
 * Scholastic wrestling - I had to bring this article back from the dead, because the high school section on the collegiate wrestling page was getting too long. I added a history section, and tried to write text for the various sections so that it would look as close as possible to the text of the collegiate wrestling page. I also had the NFHS wrestling rules with me, so I made the specific changes as needed. Cited as well.

I also added some information to the article on FILA and created an article for USA Wrestling.

Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Please leave any comments on my talk page or on the talk pages of the articles.

Thanks,
