Feedback?

Hi Abigail, I just wanted to note that for an editor brand new to Wikipedia, answering their good faith questionwith "you tell me" is hardly welcoming newbies. Looking into their case, which in this example is contentious, would have helped. Just linking the EL page is not going to get them any further. The Dashboard guidelines say to give " constructive feedback on how to improve their edits. Remember though, the focus is on encouragement. If possible, clean up their edit for them and explain what you have done." We need all the literary editors we can get right now, especially ones working in good faith.Span (talk) 21:18, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Reverting on Agranulocytosis

Hi AbigailAbernathy. Just a quick note to ask you to be a little more careful when reverting work, the edits you revertedhere re-added vandalism to the work, which the IP editor you reverted had in fact, removed. I also notice this was a semi-automated edit -please remember that you are responsible for any edits done with semi-automated or automated tools, so your closer attention to detail in the future would be most welcome!  BarkingFish  22:53, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

I know, I probably saw the vandalism and reverted too late. --Abigail was here :D Talk to Me.Email Me. 22:55, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

New Editor from Clemson

Abigail, I saw your page in TeaHouse! It helps a lot considering I am completely new to Wikipedia! For my English class we are posting Wikipedia articles on subjects we care about. Before I get too far into editing, I am trying to ask around for feedback. If you wouldn't mind taking a few minutes out of your day to take a look at my edits to a Wikipedia article, I would greatly appreciate it. My main concerns are just that my writing is unbiased and that I'm including notable information. Not all of the writing is mine but the main body part is. Thank you so much! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabel_Briggs_Myers Kadamso cu (talk) 06:41, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Kadamso! I read your article and when I got down to the Encountering Jung's Ideas section, it hit me that in my Psychology class at school, we just finished talking about Carl Jung and his ideas, so that's pretty cool! Anyway, I'm seeing that both sections under Beginning of Psychology Career and the final section, MBTI Personality Test have one source in each. I recommend putting about one or two more sources into one or two of those sections to really get a strong few paragraphs. Other than that, you're doing a superb job! Also, it's really awesome that your English class isn't saying, "Wikipedia is extremely biased and anyone can put something there so it's extremely unreliable" like mine did last year. I give your school kudos for that. Keep up the good work! I'll be checking back when I get home. Happy editing! --Abigail was here :D Talk to Me. Email Me. 10:16, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Thank you so much! I appreciate it! I know my english class is awesome. The article will be finished by Wednesday! Kadamso cu (talk) 04:57, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

Sure! I'd be happy if you help me as it is my first article. — Precedingunsigned comment added by CJKAllstar (talkcontribs) 17:16, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

All right! Awesome! Watch what I do, if you have any questions feel free to ask! --Abigail was here :D Talk to Me. Email Me. 18:16, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
So when are you gonna help?
I did already. --Abigail was here :D Talk to Me. Email Me. 20:47, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! ->The answer to 42....

Please don't refactor other editors' talk pages, as you did at User talk:Saynotopharmacareer. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:04, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

In email, he asked for help on how to use the Unblock Request template. --Abigail was here :D Talk to Me. Email Me. 21:27, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
Well, you actually removed one declined unblock request, and you placed the new request inside the block notice, so it all had to be reverted anyway. Also, the unblock request really needs to be made by the blocked editor himself, rather than by someone else - he has already formatted one request properly, so I don't see why he shouldn't be able to do a second one. But if he needs help, he can ask for it on his Talk page, where it will all be out in the open. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 21:41, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
I have added a note to his Talk page explaining how to request unblock. -- Boing! said Zebedee(talk) 21:51, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

re

Thanks for the barnstar. User:数学家李煌 has been vandalizing Chinese Wikipedia since January, with more than 50 sockpuppets. It's interesting that he thinks himself is mathematician...--MakecatTalk 05:47, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

You're welcome. I happen to see that he made an attack page for me. I feel honored, honestly. Haha, people these days.--Abigail was here :D Talk to Me. Email Me. 05:49, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
Well, he likes using redirects to attack other people. And the page zh:Makecat and other usernames has been protected in Chinese Wikipedia due to his long-term vandalism. --MakecatTalk 05:54, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
I got a feeling that this is not the last we see of him. --Abigail was here :D Talk to Me.Email Me. 10:02, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
I am quite sure because he hasn't stop vandalizing Chinese Wikipedia by now. Several hours ago, a new sockpuppet of him was blocked. It is very interesting that a person who always spams online claims himself is a mathematician. --MakecatTalk 11:22, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

The Tea Leaf - Issue Two

Hi! Welcome to the second edition of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter of the Teahouse!

  • Teahouse celebrates one month of being open! This first month has drawn a lot of community interest to the Teahouse.Hosts & community members have been working with the project team to improve the project in many ways including creating scripts to make inviting easier, exploring mediation processes for troubling guests, and best practices regarding mentoring for new editors who visit the Teahouse.
Springtime means fresh tea leaves...
  • First month metrics report an average of 30 new editors visiting the Teahouse each week. Approximately 30 new editors participate in the Teahouse each week, by way of asking questions and making guest profiles. An average of six new questions and four new profiles are made each day. We'd love to hear your ideas about how we can spread the word about the Teahouse to more new editors.
  • Teahouse has many regulars. Like any great teahouse, our Teahouse has a 61% return rate of guests, who come back to ask additional questions and to also help answer others' questions. Return guests cite the speedy response rate of hosts and the friendly, easy to understand responses by the hosts and other participants as the main reasons for coming back for another cup o' tea!
  • Early metrics on retention. It's still too early to draw conclusions about the Teahouse's impact on new editor retention, but, early data shows that 38% of new editors who participate at the Teahouse are still actively editing Wikipedia 2-4 weeks later, this is compared with 7% from a control group of uninvited new editors who showed similar first day editing activity. Additional metrics can be found on the Teahouse metrics page.
  • Nine new hosts welcomed to the Teahouse. Nine new hosts have been welcomed to the Teahouse during month one:Chicocvenancio, Cullen328, Hallows AG,Jeffwang, Mono, Tony1, Worm That Turned, Writ Keeper, and Nathan2055. Welcome to the Teahouse gang, folks!
  • Say hello to the new guests at the Teahouse. Take the time to welcome and get to know the latestguests at the Teahouse. Drop off some wikilove to these editors today, as being welcomed by experienced editors is a really nice way to make new editors feel welcome.

Teahouse ping!

Hi Abigail, just pinging you from the land of the Teahouse to say hi and that we haven't seen you for a while! We'd still love to have you participate as a host, but I also understand that we (Wikipedians!) do get busy sometimes with other things, on and off-wiki. If you'd like to still participate, great! We'd love your helpanswering questions and inviting editors to the Teahouse. If you don't think you have the time to participate right now, no problem, just please let me know! Thanks Abigail!Sarah (talk) 22:49, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Sarah! I'm so sorry for my Teahouse inactivity. I've been spending a lot of time with my boyfriend, preparing for my birthday (this Friday), and balancing school work all at the same time. Don't worry! I still want to be a host, and I will try to answer any questions that are asked all next week during Spring Break (especially if the weather is bad). I'll see you at the Teahouse! Make sure to brew up some green tea for everyone (: --Abigail was here :D Talk to Me.Email Me. 04:39, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
I totally understand. Between you and me (and your talk page stalkers), I edited a lot less when I was in a relationship ;-) Enjoy your birthday, for sure, and work and school. I have two jobs and I'm finishing my masters full time, so you have my sympathy. Just wanted to make sure you were still on board in case I had to start putting the call out for more hosts. Thanks for the update, and have fun!! Sarah (talk) 14:25, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Where can I appeal to get an article back up??

I spent hours on an article which I believe was fairly published, and it was unfairly taken down by an unnamed user. How do I appeal to get the article back up onto Wikipedia?

in response

It took me a long time to find a way to reply to your comments. I suppose this is just another example of the secularist censorship that pervades the modern world. In response to your question: whilst you profess to write from a neutral perspective, I would wager that most contributors will have a view on the topic on which they are writing, one way or the other. Despite their protests of neutrality, the processes by which they gather and report information are necessarily informed by their own views on the subject. Their observations are unavoidably theory-laden, as it were, and as such the bias is pervasive all the way down to the selection of facts and how they are reported.

This doesn't really matter anyway, as God's truth is self evident, and so transgressions against it are also self evident by their very nature. The "proof" that you speak of is already abundant in the articles simply by virtue of their existence. The continued failure on this site to rectify such clear factual errors only seems to arise when His Truth does not sit comfortably with the liberal secularist agenda. How can you claim this is not evidence of bias and still keep a straight face?

Cunnpunner (talk) 23:21, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm an Atheist, so I have to disagree with your "God's truth is self-evident" comment. See, this is your own opinion, which is against the Neutral POV guidelines. Not everyone have the same beliefs, a good example is above.--Abigail was here :D Talk to Me. Email Me. 23:26, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
You say that people have different beliefs like that's supposed to be some kind of revelation for me. Really, anyone who's checked in on the world sometime in the last 10 years knows that's the case. I find the melting pot of different opinions quite exhilarating actually (even if some of them are patently wrong). But we are not meant to talk about opinions here, so i will not go into this further. I can't help but note though that your profession of atheism is surely a point of view in itself? Why are you bringing it to this into a discussion that is supposed to be free of individual points of view?
I also can't help but note that you've seized on the religious aspect of my previous comment (which actually formed a relatively minor part of the point I was trying to make) and completely ignored the meat of my remarks, which were around the point that contributions are necessarily informed by the views of the contributors, and thus can never achieve this coveted "neutrality", regardless of any claims made to the contrary.
Or should I take your silence on this point as tacit agreement that the Wikipedia project is fundamentally and unavoidably compromised?
(also, i'm finding it very hard to format my replies properly. I'd really appreciate your help in this)Cunnpunner (talk) 00:01, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Teahouse

Hi Abigail! I know you are a busy bee, and I hope the semester and your relationship are both going well! I really appreciate your contributions at the Teahouse and I know you haven't been able to contribute as much as you'd like. I hope you don't mind, but, for now I am going to remove you from the your hosts page and move you to our past hosts page which will be linked from the hosts page. You are of course encouraged to move yourself back to the active host page anytime, or just drop by to lend a hand at your convenience. I'm really glad you were able to participate in the pilot! Good luck with school, summer is almost here!

Thank you so much for being so understanding, Sarah. The Teahouse is a really awesome place to be so I know it's going to be awesome within the next month (or day, actually :D). I'll drop in every now and then, I'm guaranteeing that my activity will steadily increase after May 18th (last day of classes, yes, this Friday :D) and after exam week and graduation. I'll see you around! --A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me. Moves. 11:09, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
As I was reverting vandalism on Huggle I noticed you beat me to quite a few reverts. So I figured I would check out your userpage and I was surprised to see that you go to BCC. I go there as well! It isn't often at all that one finds someone else online that lives that close to you. With that said I was very surprised.

Thank you for all that you do for Wikipedia. The work that people like you and I do is very important. So I'm glad to see when someone does it well and efficiently, hence this barnstar. If you want to talk more, I am most certainly up for it. I can be reached by email, as well. Cheers, Clarince63 (talk) 19:20, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

The Tea Leaf - Issue Four

Hi! Welcome to the fourth issue of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter for the Teahouse!

  • Teahouse pilot wraps up after 13 weeks After being piloted on English Wikipedia starting in February, the Teahouse wrapped up its pilot period on May 27, 2012. We expect this is just the beginning for the Teahouse and hope the project will continue to grow in the months to come!

Thank you and congratulations to all of the community members who participated - and continue to participate!

  • What you've all been waiting for: Teahouse Pilot Report is released! We look forward to your feedback on the methodology and outcomes of this pilot project.
  • ....and if a pilot report wasn't enough, the Teahouse Pilot Metrics Report is out too! Dive into the numbers and survey results to learn about the impact the Teahouse has made on English Wikipedia.
  • Teahouse shows positive impact on new editor retention and engagement
  • 409 new editors participated during the entire pilot period, with about 40 new editors participating in the Teahouse per week.
  • Two weeks after participating, 33% of Teahouse guests are still active on Wikipedia, as opposed to 11% of a similar control group.
  • New editors who participated in the Teahouse edit 10x the number of articles, make 7x more global edits, and 2x as much of their content survives on Wikipedia compared to the control group.
  • Women participate in the Teahouse 28% of Teahouse participants were women, up from 9% of editors on Wikipedia in general, good news for this project which aimed to have impact on the gender gap too - but still lots to be done here!
  • New opportunities await for the Teahouse in phase two as the Teahouse team and Wikipedia community examine ways to improve, scale, and sustain the project. Opportunities for future work include:
  • Automating or semi-automating systems such as invites, metrics and archiving
  • Experimenting with more ways for new editors to discover the Teahouse
  • Building out the social and peer-to-peer aspects further, including exploring ways to make answering questions easier, creating more ways for new editors to help each other and for all participants to acknowledge each other's efforts
  • Growing volunteer capacity, continuing to transfer Teahouse administration tasks to volunteers whenever possible, and looking for new ways to make maintenance and participation easier for everyone.
  • Want to know how you can lend a hand at the Teahouse? Become a host! Learn more about what makes the Teahouse different than other help spaces on Wikipedia and see how you can help new editors by visiting here.
  • Say hello to the new guests at the Teahouse. Take the time to welcome and get to know the latestguests at the Teahouse. Drop off some wikilove to these editors today, as being welcomed by experienced editors is really encouraging to new Wikipedians.

The Tea Leaf - Issue Five

Stop by for a tasty glass of wiki-iced tea at the Teahouse, today!

Hi! Welcome to the fifth edition of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter of the Teahouse!

  • Guest activity increased in July. Questions are up from an average of 36 per week in June to 43 per week in July, and guest profile creation has also increased. This is likely a result of the automatic inviteexperiments we started near the end of month, which seeks to lessen the burden on hosts and other volunteer who manually invite editors. During the last week of July, questions doubled in the Teahouse! (But don't let that deter you frominviting editors to the Teahouse, please, there are still lots of new editors who haven't found Teahouse yet.)
  • More Teahouse hosts than ever. We had 12 new hosts sign up to participate at the Teahouse! We now have 35 hosts volunteering at the Teahouse. Feel free to stop by and see them all here.
  • Phase two update: Host sprint. In August, the Teahouse team plans to improve the host experience by developing a simpler new-host creation process, a better way of surfacing active hosts, and a host lounge renovation. Take a look at the plan and weigh in here.
  • New Teahouse guest barnstar is awarded to first recipient: Charlie Inks. Using the Teahouse barnstar designed byHeatherawalls, hosts hajatvrc and Ryan Vesey created the new Teahouse Guest Barnstar. The first recipient is Charlie Inks, for her boldness in asking questions at the Teahouse. Check out the award in actionhere.
  • Teahouse was a hot topic at Wikimania! The Teahouse was a hot topic at Wikimania this past month, where editor retention and interface design was heavily discussed. Sarah and Jonathan presented the Teahouse during the Wikimedia Fellowships panel. Slides can be viewed here. A lunch was also held at Wikimania for Teahouse hosts.

As always, thanks for supporting the Teahouse project! Stop by and visit us today!

Re: August 2012

Honest mistake! I was trying to add a company that was a known supporter, and must have mistakenly saved it. I hate it when that happens! By the way, noticed your userpage, and your interest in USN. As a sailor, I can say anyone in a psychology field from what I've seen has mainly been officers, so ROTC or OCS would be the way to go, if you wanted a fast track to psychology. Enlisting as anHM is a great, but demanding opportunity. However, your field depends on the needs of the command. You could be an emergency medical tech one day, a pharmacist another day, and a nurse's assistant the next. I'm starting to ramble on, so I'll leave it at that. But, best of luck! 67.246.235.218 (talk) 00:44, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll look that up. Also, if you really meant to add something but accidentally removed that entire section, feel free to readd them, and then add the company. Honest mistake! Nothing is perfect, my friend! Just remember to not do it again. Thanks, and happy editing! --A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me. Moves. 00:48, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

About my edits

Hello, to respond to your message - I did provide an edit summary, though I didn't elaborate on it. The content I removed was an obvious smear, I thought, and that it was more suitable for a magazine tabloid than a Wiki page. Hope that clarifies.Escp99 (talk) 00:56, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

You could of edited that yourself so it would look more like a Wiki-article instead of a tabloid magazine article. But yeah, I see your point.--A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me. Moves. 01:07, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi, please pay more attention to what you're reverting. I know Huggle makes it very easy to revert with minimal effort, but you are responsible for edits you make with it. In the case of Victoria Police, yes the editor was removing a large amount of content without an edit summary, but the content was mostly unsourced, was written in an extremely negative tone, and was arguably even libellous. If you encounter a situation like that in the future, please read the content and see if there might be a legitimate reason to remove it. Knee-jerk reverts in cases like this can cause a lot more work down the line. Thanks,HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 05:49, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

What you put:

A great example of educators expanding their PLN is a weekly chat on Twitter called #Satchat. Every Saturday morning at 7:30 EST/PST hundreds of current and emerging school leaders share ideas that in turn promote the success of all students. Join the conversation by logging into Twitter and following the hashtag #Satchat. Co-founders and co-moderators on the east coast are Scott Rocco @scottrrocco and Brad Currie @bcurrie5. West coast chat is moderated by Shelley Burgess, David Culberhouse and Dr. Jolly. More information can be found here?

The Tea Leaf - Issue Six

Hi! Welcome to the sixth edition of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter of the Teahouse!

  • Teahouse serves over 700 new editors in six months on Wikipedia! Since February 27, 741 new editors have participated at the Teahouse. The Q&A board and the guest intro pages are more active than ever.
A lovely little teahouse nestled in Germany from Wiki Loves Monuments
  • Automatic invites are doing the trick: 50% more new editors visiting each week. Ever since HostBot's automated invite trial phase began we've seen a boost in new editor participation. Automating a baseline set of invitations also allows Teahouse hosts to focus on serving hot cups of help to guests, instead of spending countless hours inviting.
  • Guests to the Teahouse continue to edit more & interact more with other community members than non-Teahouse guestsaccording to six month metrics. Teahouse guests make more than twice the article edits and edit more talk pages than other new editors.
  • New host process implemented which encourages anyone to get started as a Teahouse host in a few easy steps. Stop by thehosts page and become a Teahouse host today!
  • Host lounge renovations nearing completion. Working closely with Teahouse hosts, we've made some major renovations to the Teahouse Host Lounge - the main hangout and resource space for hosts. Learn more about the improvements here.

As always, thanks for supporting the Teahouse project! Stop by and visit us today!

A piece of good news

It seems that our old friend Li Huang is no longer active... HAHA... --MakecatTalk 12:59, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

David Shilling

Hi,

I wasn't meaning to be nasty in any way, but since the date was clearly wrong, I felt I needed to point it out. Since I haven't seen David since we left St. Pauls in 1966, I don't think it is of great importance to me. If you looked at the Old Pauline Club 2010 Directory, you would see he was there between 1961 and 1966, which makes a birth year of 1956 impossible.

Please take it out again if it's only going to upset people.

— Preceding unsigned comment added by84.12.97.141 (talk) 18:28, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello! Well, your edit on David Shilling looked like it was meant for the article's talk pagerather than the article itself. Try putting your addition there, alright? If you want to put it on the page again, feel free to back it up with that source, then we can get the ball rollin' again. --A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me.Moves. 18:32, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

C'mon on back to the Teahouse!

It's easier than ever to be a Host at the Teahouse
Hi AbigailAbernathy! The Teahouse has recently went through some design changes in order to improve it's usability for new editors and for our Hosts. As a former Host, we'd love to see you back. A few changes have taken place about hosting:
  • A new and improved Host Lounge which features calls to action and resources.
  • A simplified Host sign up process. It just takes a few simple steps to add your new profile to our new Host profile page.
  • Concerned about how much time you have to contribute? Don't be. With our new automated Host check in system Hosts can feel less pressure to participate outside of their volunteer capacity - only participate when you want.
  • Teahouse invitations are currently automated! We encourage you to keep inviting, but, there is no pressure or quotas as HostBot does the task for the you.

I hope you'll come back and join us, your skills at making new editors feel welcome and appreciated are invaluable to the Teahouse, and the Wikipedia community. See you there! EdwardsBot (talk) 17:30, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

You will allow me to edit Wikipedia?

Thank you for allowing me to edit. I'm glad I finally found the authority on right and wrong, it's about time you showed up. This is what I hate about Wikipedia: People like you acting like your opinion is better than mine. Thanks for nothing. My edits will be restored. Go ahead and ban me, I want to be a martyr for trying to make Wikipedia less biased. What a joke this all is. 74.211.94.135 (talk) 01:51, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Nevermind. The page was "subject to review" so people like you can make sure that biased content isn't removed.74.211.94.135 (talk) 01:57, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Who's the vandal?

Any reason you are vandalizing my talk page? More right wing, authoritarian, bullying in en.wikipedia? Not exactly a surprise I guess. Are they still trying to figure out why admins and editorship has dropped off a cliff? People like you, I assume. Whatever you message was, you might want to check the layout of my talk page. I cannot see you message. Which I can only assume was a lesson in irony. Vandalize my post and "warn" me for vandalism. Cute. Please respond and repost your message here as my talk page obviously isn't intended to be used for talking.  NewGuy1001  02:26, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

All I did was warn you about personal attacks, and that thing on your talk page was made by you.--A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me. Moves. 02:30, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
By the way, what you said to that one person counted as a personal attack. May I remind you that I am not an admin. Don't do it again. --A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me. Moves. 02:39, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
There is nothing wrong with it. It's the way I styled it. In order to actually read posts, I must view the edit:talk page rather. Feel free to copy the code and post it anywhere within someone else's page which will result in complete and entire blanking of the page to any color you'd like(I suggest red), even add text. Vandal school 101: teaching you how to better do what you already do. Good day...(woops) I just noticed you have gone back and completely modified my talk page. Does this not amount to vandalism? or am I not permitted control over the formatting of my own talk page? Any reason why have you done this? I do not have the energy or time to engage in Wiki battles of any sort. I ask that you revert you edit(s) to my talk page formatting, at the very least, if not my comment as well. Not sure why you(like so many others like you who've invaded Wikipedia over the recent years) fancy yourself fit to make a personal judgment as to what is and isn't "offensive" or "civil." In my opinion, the two posts to which I was responding were not civil or appropriate in the first place, but unlike you I have not engaged in a campaign of censorship. Just revert the edit(s) and leave me alone. I will not be making any more edits outside of the (apparently dead) project I signed onto. Do you get off on exerting authority over others or something, miss Abagail Abernathy of New England? Talk pages are for talking, fine, but I'll talk how I please and on my own terms, thank you.  NewGuy1001  02:57, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
That was not me with the code, as you can see here, at 14:43, November 29, 2012, you did this to your page. If you look atat my Contributions, no insertion of code other than Warnings were made, thus making it impossible for me to post it. Revision histories are in place for this exact reason. You're welcome.--A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me. Moves. 03:02, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

external links

Some acceptable links include those that contain further research that is accurate and on-topic, information that could not be added to the article for reasons such as copyright or amount of detail, or other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article for reasons unrelated to its accuracy.

So you can't remove my link. --64.62.201.5 (talk) 07:57, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Please undo the changes as you have no right to do so, i can add links by means of adding external links as on the article.--64.62.201.5 (talk) 07:57, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Sims3 editing

I've just received your message. And, either you've personally played the game or you're just a moderator in wikipedia. As you said, it's better to chat with you first on "controversial" items placed in Wikipedia. I'm not sure if you're aware that, while EA will definitely argue otherwise, players across all game platforms have come to identify EA as the number one irresponsible publisher in the gaming industry. Mostly it's because EA is the largest, but also it's because it is a proven and undisputed fact. The game itself is riddled with innumerable bugs and you can easily just search for a list on google. The most complete lists are in Twallan's website and Awesomemod website. Do you want this to be verified? Because the list of "verification" goes on and on, from gamers, to game reviewers, to fellow game developers. I will however understand if you tell me that if wikipedia is legally liable for it's content. Although I seriously doubt it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by61.15.37.38 (talk) 08:01, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Not only have I played (and own) the game, I am a Rollback. I only reverted your edits because you're writing a new section and a big paragraph without a single verifiable source to back it up. If you can search for a list on Google, then I encourage you to do so. Here at Wikipedia, we rely on sources for our content, not opinions, such as "players across all game platforms have come to identify EA as the number one irresponsible publisher in the gaming industry." Thank you.--A Wild Abigail Appears! Capture me. Moves. 08:42, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
Sorry I still don't understand, are you some kind of moderator here? I tried to read the above and all I see is some kind of editor. A volunteering job for wiki? — Precedingunsigned comment added by 61.15.37.38 (talk) 10:08, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Glendale Academy Content Expansion

Abigail, I have just been trying to expand the text of Glendale Academy with proper content provided by the school's administrative official. Somehow you think that it's not neutral. Could you please let me know what should be done to publish the expanded content? Komalmathews (talk) 07:19, 29 January 2013 (UTC) Komal Mathews

According to one of your additions (this is just one link out of multiples you've tried to submit), all I see is biased, opinionated information. Your submission has absolutely no evidence to support your addition, no cited information, and nothing you can prove. This violates our neutral point of view policy, this sounds more like a short story rather than an article. Please stop trying to put this addition. Thank you. --A Wild Abigail Appears!Capture me.Moves. 21:27, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

International community

Hello AbigailAbernathy, I'm RW Marloe. I hadn't visited the international community article for a while now and only just checked it today, I wrote the history section on 2010-11-24 and had meant to add references for this section, even though my last edit was on 2012-07-05. I was wondering if you could assist me in finding some references? Searching Google with "international community"brought up 581,000 results which is quite a lot.

This is a reference I will add which is Imagining the International Community from the European Journal of International Law. I will also be adding more references. The history section is within the context of the article and is not original research, but merely a brief or condensed version of any history book, which I'll reference. I have also left a message in response to user 78.148.45.131 who removed a considerable amount of content on the article.

RW Marloe (talk) 09:56, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello RW Marloe. Instead of prematurely publishing your edit before adding the references, why not give your sandbox some attention? You could publish your article addition to your sandbox and then gather the references, and THEN insert them at the appropriate times in your sandbox. When you're done, you can transfer your sandbox to the International community page.--A Wild Abigail Appears!Capture me.Moves. 21:33, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi AbigailAbernathy, thanks for the advice about my sandbox, I haven't used it very often but I will. I suppose I've usually used TextEdit on my Mac but that doesn't have any preview which is most important to check. I'll try sandboxing from now on even after writing it offline in TextEdit. Thanks again. — RW Marloe (talk) 15:10, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
