Welcome!

Deep ecology
Hi Spencerk! Thanks for the contributions from me too. But I've put a comment on your recent edit to Deep ecology at its talk page. Maybe you'd like to amplify there on the criticism you added. Regards -- JimR 05:44, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Hi again, Spencer, and thanks for the comment on my talk page (but remember to sign with four tildes). Thanks in particular for your generous temporary removal of the criticism.  You've given me cause for thought.  You might like to look at the extract Thinking Like a Mountain by Aldo Leopold (who predated the term "Deep ecology" but seems to have been influential on the idea), and also the reviews  of a book named after Leopold's phrase.  Perhaps these references might help to formulate your criticism.  I see what you mean &mdash; it may be presumption, or anthropomorphism, for a deep ecologist to claim to "think like a mountain".  I'll try to get my own ideas on this in better order and then put something on Talk:Deep ecology.  Regards -- JimR 11:26, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Argumentum ad populum
Hi, I've redirected the article as per the original discussion. Thanks for your contribution (btw, you can sign your name with ~ ). Shawnc 21:47, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Renaming is when you use the "move" tab on top of each page to simply change the article's name. The benefit of this is that it retains and moves all past edits to the new name. However in cases like this where the target name already exists, "move" requires an administrator to delete the old page first (no one has done this yet). Shawnc 07:25, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

Sources for International Policy Statement
Hello, good work on International Policy Statement, and thanks for the contribution. However, you forgot to add any references to the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. What websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to International Policy Statement? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? Thank you very much. - SimonP 06:01, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

SETI@Home
Please provide the full citations for your additions, in the References section.

Incidentally, the ETI virus scare seems to have been written by someone completely outside their domain of expertise, as the random noise from a resistor connected to the antenna terminals would produce almost the same risk. I can't use that as it would be original research, but there is a SETI League published paper] that does challenge this theory, and I'll add that later. --David Woolley 08:53, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Re : Crying While Eating
These details you have provided should have been mentioned on the VfD entry itself rather than my talkpage. I can't simply overturn the decision as there is a strong consensus to delete, but you may wish to consider Deletion review. - Best regards, Mailer Diablo 02:24, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Template: Anti-consumerism
Aloha. What references did you use as justification for your template? I'm in fact checking mode, and I'm trying to figure out why Ethical consumerism is listed as "anti-consummerism". AFAIK, every consumer is to some degree, an ethical consumer, whether they are aware of it or not. &mdash;Viriditas | Talk 09:23, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Cool (aesthetic)
I have no idea why you renamed the article; it made no sense. The title has been returned to Cool (aesthetic). It's backwards for a specific title to redirect to a more general one. Further, the way it was left after you effected the title change (which may have been the result of previous renamings), the talk page for "cool (aesthetic)" redirected to the talk page for Cool: African philosophy) -- which certainly didn't work. That's been fixed.  deeceevoice 12:50, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup Loch Ness
Man, I'm impressed by the speed that you guys tackled that "Incident at Loch Ness" article I tagged. It's way better now, really good job. SchnappM 03:30, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I believe the article does need the commentary, but not in the "plot summary" section. Perhaps a section for commentary, not a point-of-view inside the summary. I would do it right now but my Fantasy Baseball league is in the middle of an auction. If you want, however, I can do it tomorrow or Saturday. Miguel Cervantes 03:40, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Possibly unfree Image:Tre-Arrow-19.jpg
An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Tre-Arrow-19.jpg, has been listed at Possibly unfree images. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page to provide the necessary information on the source or licensing of this image (if you have any), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.
 * I deleted this image. I could find nothing on the source web site to indicate material was released under Creative Commons. If you can provide a link to any page that confirms this, we can get the image back under this license. -Nv8200p talk 16:05, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Evaporation
There's a mention of evaporation and the water cycle in the intro. The links therein ideally would explain this in more detail. Perhaps this is sufficent for your purposes? Cheers, Daniel Collins 22:46, 24 March 2006 (UTC).

Tre Arrow
Hi, I changed the reasoning on the prod to be less jargony. Just so you know, Cruft is semi-official Wikipedia jargon for these things, but you're right, I should have been more explicit. Also see Fancruft, this may clear things up.--Deville (Talk) 00:05, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

self-consciousness

 * My wish is for you to merge the similarities of the two articles but leave the differences. My overall objection is if you merge too much and then try to delete one of the articles. Discussion on the page indicates both articles can exist as distinct topics. But there needs to be time for the other article to develop. Peace. &#2384; Metta Bubble puff  00:28, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Cool (aesthetic)
My approach to the article is no different from the approach others would take. The text I deleted was not done wholesale. With each edit I made, I made the appropriate corrresponding edit note. The contentions in the article were not cited, and in one case, the source was completely unencyclopedic and not worthy of citation. In another instance, the material was completely off-point -- namely insertion of information on traditional African societies in an article on pop culture. The outside link at the bottom of the page was not only obscene, but utter garbage -- presumably inserted as a prank/vandalism. I've applied precisely the same standards I have come to understand, through the discussion of the AfD for Cool (African philosophy), is now the standard at Wikipedia. In fact, the frivolous source cited was nowhere near the caliber of source materials completely discounted in the now deleted article. I'm applying editorial standards equally across the board. Vague, unsubtantiated language is unacceptable -- and so is off-point article content. What remains of the article, quite coincidentally, is the language I wrote defining pop culture cool. Ironic -- ain't it? Deeceevoice 14:52, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

re:fair use image
But the template to which the image belonged, Template:Anti-consumerism, is being used on other articles besides Adbusters. Fair use states: "Fair use images should only be used in the article namespace. Used outside article space, they are often enough not covered under the fair use doctrine. They should never be used on templates (including stub templates and navigation boxes) or on user pages."—jiy (talk) 21:43, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah. Even if it isn't, you can still probably include it in the Adbusters article itself (just not the template) and justify it under the doctrine of fair use.—jiy (talk) 07:56, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Postmodernism
Hi, thanks for getting in touch. I think the obvious point is that at least the reader can now get a simple idea of some basic concepts of postmodernism through the bullet points, though it is an unconventional way to start. I haven't done a lot of work on it - really just stopping it from deteriorating (even further) by removing duff edits. To be honest, I'm not prepared to work on this article, as I think it's a big job and it's not one that interests me very much. However, I would certainly encourage you to - be bold! Seriously, if you can go through the whole thing and make it more accessible and understandable for the general reader, that would be great, and I would certainly support that. Tyrenius 23:20, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi, found your page on Postmodernism in language using random. I am new to Wiki editing. The second sentence is very long and I can't make sense of it. Is "form" a verb or a noun? thanks Timb66 01:45, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

in the section you wrote about skepticism the same link occurs four times, in a manner that suggests that there should have been four different ones. would you try again to link to the different pages?

Unspecified source for Image:Terrific looking trophy.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Terrific looking trophy.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

If you have made the screenshot yourself, please say so; otherwise indicate the address of the exact web page where this screenshot can be seen. Awyong Jeffrey Mordecai Salleh 06:40, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Image tagging for Image:Fullhouse_screenshot.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Fullhouse_screenshot.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Muppetsplits.jpeg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Muppetsplits.jpeg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. JDtalk 13:55, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Plane ride test
I've added the "prod" template to the article Plane ride test, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Plane ride test. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Bushed (poem)
A "" template has been added to the article Bushed (poem), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but yours may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. 172.164.240.39 22:58, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Fideism
Hi Spencer. When you inserted the "History" and "Theories of truth" sections into Fideism it left the next statement, "This sort of fideism ...", without an indication of what sort of fideism is referred to. I think it was referring to the last paragraph before "History" but I am not sure how to tie it back to that. You would be a better person to attempt that. cheers Nurg 06:16, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Copyright violation in QQ coin
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on QQ coin, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because QQ coin is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting QQ coin, please affix the template 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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Rebelsellcover.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Rebelsellcover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 16:43, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Ikea.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Ikea.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 01:31, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

responsibility to protect Iraq
Hi Spencerk,

there's a template marking a missing citation for Bush invoking the responsibility to protect for the Iraq war. This claim has apparently been in the article since you created it -- can you provide a citation? I don't remember Bush saying this and can't find anything about it on the Web.

Thanks,

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Might sticker.gif
Thank you for uploading Image:Might sticker.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:20, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

New evil demon
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article New evil demon, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add  to the top of New evil demon.

Citations!
You created utility monster in 2007, but didn't provide any citations. That's the first thing you should do when you create an article. If it doesn't have any refs, you shouldn't bother uploading it. I doubt this topic is notable enough for an article myself (see the talk page), but even if it was you should still provide citations! Richard001 (talk) 11:44, 13 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Surely if you wrote the article you must have got this information from somewhere. Can't you provide at least one source? Moving this information into another article will not do anything to solve the references problem. Richard001 (talk) 05:14, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: simple highlighting thingy
Yeah, I could do it as a web app, but in my experience, doing stuff like that with a "hard" programming language (if you know what I mean) is easier.

Speedy deletion of Electronic oscillators
A tag has been placed on Electronic oscillators requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. macy 18:33, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

He repeatedly referred to the killing of Ryan as the reason they had to kill themselves before forces "parachuted in" to torture, enslave, etc.  The killers then showed up for the speech in the Pavilion, and Jones repeatedly referred to Patty Parks and Jim Cobb (incorectly) being dead.Mosedschurte (talk) 17:16, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Haslam (2007), a prior book about Baker's life published by Harrison E. Livingstone(2004), and the upcoming publication of Baker's new book, to be released Nov. 2009 ("Me & Lee" Trine Day: see Amazon.com or Baker's official website). Baker's poetry, writings and art are widely published and reproduced, and all of this is ascertainable simply by going to any of dozens of external links at the biography's Wikipedia site. I work with Baker to help improve Wikipedia articles and stubs on a wide variety of subjects. I have no idea why you would delete Baker as a living person and then mark Baker's biography for deletion. I will refrain from saying other things on my mind about this, and will try to believe that somehow you were unwittingly influenced by unknown persons who had little regard for accuracy or truthfulness. truehistoryjvbaTruehistoryjvba (talk) 17:37, 20 June 2009 (UTC)Allan Mattsson.

20 July Plot
Well, the whole thing comes from another image, which has already been deleted. I created this just to convert it to SVG format, which is more better than the jpg that they use instead. -- Syed (talk) 11:57, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

About Natural language processing toolkits
I would like to thank you for your contribution to the Natural language processing toolkits page. I would also like to discuss more about it if you have any knowledge about the subject, especially in helping me choosing one specific toolkit among all. Is there any way to contact you directly so that I could ask you several questions about it ? Regards, Ducktale (talk) 09:07, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Redirect
Could you tell me the purpose of the redirect you created at Robert James (physician)? The target article contains no mention of anyone named Robert James, and certainly not of the eighteenth-century English author of A Medicinal Dictionary (a mention of whom is the only incoming link to the redirect).

Thank you for adding the image to Saint-Jacques Cathedral (Montreal)
I don't know if you're the original uploader of this image, but if you're in a position to get other images of historical Montreal buildings, I'm looking for photos of several Montreal locations to illustrate Marie-Rosalie Cadron-Jetté as detailed in that article. In the event you're able to help out let me know. - DustFormsWords (talk) 03:49, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, upon a view of the image you have added (particularly its basilica) it is clearly St James Cathedral, later called Mary, Queen of the World Cathedral, and NOT Saint-Jacques Cathedral. Again, thanks for the awesome upload, but I'll remove it from the Saint-Jacques article - DustFormsWords (talk) 03:53, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, didn't realise Archives of Onatario had an online presence. (I'm in Australia.)  Will go see what I can find. - DustFormsWords (talk) 03:59, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * -( The online collection is quite limited; searches for Montreal produced nothing useful (and did not return the image of Saint-James that brought me to your talk page in the first place) so I suspect I'll have to do without. - DustFormsWords (talk) 04:06, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
