Lycaenidae
Terrific Sulawesi Lycaenidae images. A pleasure to see.Thought at first they were not categorised but I see they are neatly filed but by someone else See previous You have recently uploaded some terrific images which I am sure will feature on many WP pages,some already written but you haven't categorised them (Category:Lycaenidae) would do fine rendering them impossible to find.Or perhaps I am telling you what you know already? and you have a different plan.If so apologies.Best wishes from the Emerald Isle Robert akaNotafly (talk) 20:10, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Exclusionism
"If your intention is to delete relevant, useful, verified information, then you are not an Exclusionist but a Deletionist."

No, deletionism is about deleting entire articles; exclusionism is about removing some text from intact articles.

"I am not an unknown URL, or a "fanboy" (surprised that you would use such an ugly term in view of your desire for good English)"

When did I ever use the term "fanboy"? Are you confusing me with someone else?

"For anyone wanting to use this Wiki to actually find out about this kind of vehicle in real-life usage, actual verified data is much more useful than manufacturer's claims or the results of "record breaking" trials."

Even if you have a photo to back up your claim, we have to use reliable sources on Wikipedia. The information must be published in some book, magazine, official news site, or guide before it can be listed here. --Vossanova o&lt; 15:28, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Thaumania
Hello there Accassidy. I noticed your new article Thaumania, but was wondering if the name is correct. I couldn't find any info online. If it is correct (maybe a new genus?) could you add an authority and species? Thanks. Ruigeroeland (talk) 07:07, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I think it's Thaumaina: http://repository.osakafu-u.ac.jp/dspace/handle/10466/3326. I added a species to the taxobox. ErikHaugen (talk) 16:05, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rachana jalindra, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Horsfield (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Caleta caleta and Caleta decidia
It seems there is an overlap between these pages. The IUCN page seems outdated, considering both as a single species. I tried to improve Caleta decidia. But I have no knowledge about Caleta caleta. Could you look it, please. J e e 05:55, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Unconstructive edits
In the past year, you have repeatedly made unsourced edits that violate the neutral point of view policy: A few of those diffs are extremely distasteful.You need to stop making inappropriate edits. You also need to stop adding yourself to various pages. Schazjmd  (talk)  00:20, 26 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Your qualification and authority for determining an informative edit "inappropriate" is what? ACCassidy (talk) 10:26, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Perhaps the fact that 5 different people have independently warned you on this talk page in the past year would give you a clue that you are in the wrong here. The community as a whole is qualified to decide what counts as inappropriate. —Ganesha811 (talk) 13:58, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * So, it would appear that you do wish this website not to be educational but indoctrinational. ACCassidy (talk) 14:05, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

Blocked
Because it's clear you're not here to build an encyclopaedia, but instead push your own personal racial opinions and politics, you have been blocked from editing Wikipedia. Canterbury Tail talk 15:18, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. Canterbury Tail talk 15:18, 28 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid you seem to have misunderstood my contributions. So perhaps I should explain something about taxonomy: the scientific naming of all species on planet Earth. In order to associate and to dis-associate various animals and plants living on the Earth the science of taxonomy was created a long time ago. Darwin was an early promoter of such ideas.
 * If you look at any textbook, scientific publication, concerning the differentiation of diversely located members of a single species, you will discover the concept of a "subspecies", a "form", a "variation" and so on. Look on many pages concerning insects or birds and you will find many such distinctions. My previous understanding, from extensive work on Lepidoptera in [User contributions for ACCassidy - Wikispecies], is that these valid scientific divisions are acceptable on a website such as this where taxonomy is understood. In most species on the planet there are a number of "subspecies" based on genetic and apparent differences.
 * The scientific question is "why should such classification be denied from one animal species (Homo sapiens)", while it is considered valid for all of the others? ACCassidy (talk) 17:32, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah no, your edits have not been misunderstood. Canterbury Tail talk 17:47, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Now you are either telling a lie, or you are claiming to be able to determine the intentions in my work without ever having met nor talked to me. So, please explain further your understanding of the taxonomic validity of a "subspecies" and explain why you think Homo sapiens is not subject to the same nomenclature as every other species we know of. You accuse me of being "racist" when you, yourself, are being "speciesist" because our species must be treated differently from every other. This self-promoting position is a greater crime, surely!! ACCassidy (talk) 13:39, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * When you start a sentence "Yeah no", you appear to be a bit confused, so I shall explain further. I have been a published entomologist for several decades and have authored descriptions of several new species and sub-species in the context of the Lepidoptera. These have been published in peer-reviewed journals and have established new taxa that are now part of the accepted taxonomy. Are you going to continue to bury your head in the sand, or actually have the decency to explain your actions? ACCassidy (talk) 14:16, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Yep, keep digging, keep making it easier for everyone to see why you got blocked. Also, not all other species are divided up into subspecies, including in cases where there might seem to be significant differences in appearance. What about dog breeds? Vastly different appearances (far greater than any variation in human appearance), yet they aren't all different subspecies. Your knowledge of Lepidoptera might be good, but attempting to extrapolate from arthropods to mammals is a bit of a stretch, to say the least. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 14:25, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Also "yeah no", is a colloquialism for "No". Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 14:26, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * So, you would be happy to have different "breeds" of humans, like the dogs? For clarity, it might be better if your refrained from colloquialisms. ￼ ACCassidy (talk) 14:59, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I also notice that you are posing "anonymously" on your user page, giving no information on your qualifications for this post, nor anything else about you as an individual. Perhaps you are a "bot" of some sort... ACCassidy (talk) 15:22, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * ... and you are being discriminatory against arthropods, by making them less important than mammals. ACCassidy (talk) 15:02, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I was pointing out that differences in appearance do not make a subspecies.
 * I was actually saying that your experience with Lepidoptera does not qualify you to dictate to everyone how mammal taxonomy should work, as your view is against the prevailing scientific consensus.
 * I don't need qualifications.
 * Maybe I am some sort of bot. I don't remember being born, so perhaps you have a point. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 15:28, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, and im not the same user as Canterbury Tail either. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 15:29, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the clarification. Have a look at  Canis adustus  - Wikispecies (wikimedia.org), and you will see a dog species with many subspecies, including one named "kaffensis"**
 * I have a lot of knowledge and research capability in the Lepidoptera, as you might realise, and if I can make no further progress with those, the end loser will be Wikispecies. ACCassidy (talk) 16:05, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I wasn't talking about all canines, I was talking about the domestic dog, Canis familiaris, you are intelligent enough to have known that, surely.
 * I had some hope that you might drop your bigoted views amd your promotion of scientific racism, but no, that apparently won't be happening. Hence, I have no intention of engaging here any further. Goodbye. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 23:38, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * So, having had your errors pointed out, you are running away. What a good example to set to other narrow-minded bigots. My views are not bigoted, but descriptive. Perhaps you could look up the difference. ￼ ACCassidy (talk) 19:05, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Since you're not interested in a proper unblock request, and you are making zero acknowledgement of understanding why you were blocked, plus you're now calling other people bigots after the edits you've made, I've removed your access to the talk page. If you wish to make a reasonable unblock request that isn't obvious trolling like the above, you can use the UTRS system. Canterbury Tail talk</i> 18:46, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * FWIW, since I can see no evidence of abuse of your sysop status (or indeed any issues with your editing in general) on WS, I don't intend to make any mention there of the issues here and on simplewiki. As I see it, what has happened here and on simplewiki can stay on here and simplewiki, so long as you keep it that way. I trust you will do so. Mako001 (C) (T)  🇺🇦 14:22, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
