User:Oclupak

This user page was created on June 25, 2009, when I finally decided to open an account with Wikipedia, after dabbling in minor edits using my IP address. The main reason for registering was to gain the ability to upload pictures. I uploaded two yesterday: File:AuFaisanDoreKingdom01.jpg and File:AuFaisanDoreKingdom02.jpg. This morning, June 26, I received an email asking me to categorize those 2 pictures. That's what I have been trying to do ever since. First, I need to know what it means to categorize. I was supplied with a lot of help resources on the my talk page at Wikimedia Commons, which, I have just suddenly realized, is different from the my talk page at Wikipedia. It seems I have now three distinct identities in the wiki world, one in French at Wikipédia, one in English at Wikipedia and one at Wikimedia which is, presumably, not language dependent. Thus, three different user pages were apparently created simultaneously. I suppose that if, by chance, I ventured into editing a page in Spanish, a fourth user page bearing my pseudonym would be created in Wikipedia en español. I find all this of course a little bit confusing and mostly unexpected. I also have a user page on Wikiquote, on the French version of Wikiquote, should I say, because it is apparently distinct from its English counterpart where I still haven't contributed anything.

I would have liked to have the above links displayed as a list but the list tool is not present in the toolbar as it was when I did the same thing a few minutes ago on my French user page. Oh well... I'll eventually discover how to manage this brand new interface, I guess.

I think I found the answer :
 * Lists are easy to do:
 * start every line
 * with a star
 * more stars mean
 * deeper levels

Game plan for the immediate future
Yesterday I resolved the controversy that had arisen concerning James Earl Ray who had "purportedly" taken a shot at Martin Luther King at the Lorraine Motel.

I will now attempt to tackle the case of Dallas, Oregon, which, when I first came upon it while reading excerpts of the Warren Commission Report, I naturally assumed was a typographical error. It is not. Dallas, Ore., is the town where Curtis Laverne Crafard grew up, as I remember it. He later found himself living on the premises of the Carousel Club in the much bigger city of Dallas, Texas a few weeks prior to the JFK assassination. He was in direct contact with his boss and landlord, Jack Ruby, every single day up until the day after the assassination of JFK when Ruby summoned him at 5:30 AM to accompany him in a bizarre quest to photograph a poster calling for the impeachment of Earl Warren—the same Earl Warren who ended up presiding over the JFK investigation and who gave his name to the Warren Report. Being later interviewed by the FBI, Crafard "said that it seemed odd to him that Ruby was more excited about the Earl Warren sign than about the assassination". The following day, Crafard abruptly left Dallas, Tex. without telling anyone and was presumably hitch-hiking towards Oklahoma City when Lee Harvey Oswald was gunned down in the basement of the Dallas Police Station by Ruby. This series of events places Crafard in a unique position in history and it seems to me that he deserves to be mentioned among Dallas, Oregon's Notable residents. Granted, there is no wiki page to link to. Maybe it would be time for me to create one.

After watching the 7/7 Ripple Effect video, I edited the 7 July 2005 London bombings page to reflect the possibility that these were not necessarily suicide bombings. My edits were promptly removed by someone I have been having a discussion with on my talk page ever since. He/she claims that I am required to have documented proof before I can edit the page but, as the British government stubbornly refuses to hold an impartial enquiry, it is doubtful any "reliabe" proof will ever pop up to counteract the official story which is as believable as the fairy tale we have been told about 9/11. I haven't given up hope, though. In the meantime, I would like to create two new pages on Wikipedia, one dealing with the 7/7 Ripple Effect video and another with Barry Jennings, the gentleman who was inside building seven on the morning of 9/11 after it had been evacuated. I'll have to find out how to create a page from scratch; it is called "creating a stub", I think.

Discoveries

 * I discovered a new tool today (Dec. 7, 2009) that allows one to check the traffic on a specific page. I can access it with this URL : http://stats.grok.se/en/200910/Talk%3ASeptember_11_attacks


 * I discovered a most interesting guideline today (dec. 8, 2009) : IAR which means Ignore All Rules. It states: "If we disagree with your changes, we'll talk about it thoughtfully and politely, and we'll figure out what to do. So don't worry. Be bold, and enjoy helping to build this free encyclopedia." That was certainly NOT my experience dealing with the gatekeepers of the September 11 attacks page. Those guys are rude, impolite and moronic. Real thugs.

Inserting an image
Can I insert an image without first uploading it to WikiMEDIA ? That's what I aim to find out here. —RESULT: I think not.

____________

On 4 September 2010, I downloaded another image from the FBI and I succeeded in installing it on Wimimedia. It is the official record of the outgoing calls made by Barbara Olson from American Airlines Flight 77 on September 11, 2001. The URL for the image is http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:BarbaraOlson-unconnected-call.png but I've forgotten how to imbed it right here on this page, as I did some time ago with Mr. Crafard's photograph. Eureka! I eventually succeeded by copying/pasting what I had already done with the Crafard image and then replacing its text with Barbara Olson's text.
