Sorry I missed your message.
I noticed that I received a notification from you over the weekend, but when I went to check the message today it had been "suppressed". It may have had something to do with the discussion I was having with a few editors, who seemed to be under the impression that things like "discretionary sanctions" and "active arbitration remedies" were something that applies to other people. I decided to walk away before things got really nasty. Mr. Daniel Plainview (talk) 14:41, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

You messed up my comment now please fix it
In hatting my comment you screwed it up so now the signature won't display correctly. Please fix this and don't go around hatting my comments Fact checker _ at your service  16:39, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
 * FCAYS, FWIW, I have noticed that friends are much nicer to have than enemies on Wikipedia. This is especially true if you are not in compliance with what looks to be a quite homogenous environment of thought and groupthink with very little diversity.

 * Since our friendship revolves around editing WP I'm sure she can appreciate that I don't want to do a bunch of work tracking down relevant sources and typing up quotes only to have them instantly thrown in a box by another editor. Fact checker _ at your service  16:59, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't see how this edit screwed up your sig, . For the record, I hatted 2 discussions (including my own comments) because when JFG setup the survey, he purposely added a section for Discussion on North Korea status - per this diff. I have no problem with you moving the discussions to the appropriate section, but first get approval from the other editors involved.  It just makes for a bad RfC when discussions distract from the iVotes. Atsme 📞📧 17:12, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
 * You can see the formatting issue in this diff. When I attempted to add the comment to the other section, as you were apparently requesting, I could not get a copy/paste to render properly, and then re-signing it repeatedly with 4 tildes also failed to produce the expected formatting, suggesting an unclosed tag or other issue somewhere.
 * I didn't have any interest in spending a lot of time trying to find the formatting issue so I just reverted. Fact checker _ at your service  17:33, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Simple fix for the formatting issue - there was a space before your sig which ended up on a new line - I removed the space, and all is well. Atsme 📞📧 17:51, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

😂 - the lyrics: I don't think it has anything to do with Don's "conservation wave" (wave as in tidal wave) - some celebs have to find causes because it's free publicity. I'm thinking "master's chambers" and "mirrors on the ceiling" are dead giveaways.

 * Mirrors on the ceiling,
 * The pink champagne on ice
 * And she said, 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
 * And in the master's chambers,
 * They gathered for the feast
 * They stab it with their steely knives,
 * But they just can't kill the beast
 * I thought the mirrors were on the ceiling in the room where "she" is, but the master's chambers were other rooms in the Hotel, where the feast was. And the beast was whatever was on the table for the feast. I've forgotten a lot, but I can't remember what it was that I forgot. I still don't know what you were asking about the beast – ? Were you suggesting a phallic interpretation of the knives? --Tryptofish (talk) 21:55, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Atsme, you are a viper, and because I don't want to die of snakebite, even though I am also a viper and in theory might have some kind of viper-related immunity, I have implemented sources-talk in my latest comment. That said, I never appreciate people using pejoratives en gross when they could just be real specific with @pings so that comment you linked is upsetting.  Fact checker _ at your service  23:46, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I guess that means something...unfortunately I don't know what you're referring to exactly...so I'm thinking it's because I support the POV that adheres to NPOV, and that doesn't fully support your POV.

 * Probably my fault for lack of clarity but I was just trying to make a joke. The comment you diff'd, by an admin, seemed to be saying that the people asking for MrX to delete his evidence pile were partisan vipers, presumably including both you and me.  I thought this was silly so I was saying we're both snakes so maybe I have snake immunity, etc.  Just stupid humor.
 * And, I implemented "sources-talk" in my comment because I thought it would annoy you less than "reflist-talk".

RfA
I've read some of your comments on User:Pbsouthwood's RfA, and it's made me think. WP:UAA often has a nasty backlog, and sometimes WP:AIV's isn't much better. I'm kind of an administrator on Conservapedia (User:DMorris), with the ability to block, protect pages, run WP:CheckUser, and undelete deleted edits. I am very opinionated, but I believe I could handle administrative tasks fairly and with a level head; I think the fact that I was able to bring my high school's article to GA while I was a student there, despite having a WP:COI (to give you an idea as to how much of a COI I had, I always made it a point to wear the school colors around town when I was that age, and I made it a point to specifically wear something that said PCHS on it if I left town). If I'm inclined to perform an administrative task on Conservapedia that I think other administrators might disagree with, I always consult with the other administrators via email, and I would do the same on Wikipedia (though I would probably do it on-wiki at Wikipedia; Wikipedia is an entirely different culture). I was involved in WP:Recent changes patrol and vandal-fighting for years, so I know the policies pertaining to WP:AIV and WP:UAA pretty well. I gave up the tools related to RC patrol because I don't agree with what the other administrators are doing with IP blocks and I have decided I don't want to assist them in that, however, I could participate at WP:AIV without being part of other administrators' IP blocking campaigns (and to be clear, I would not get into wheel wars, anymore than I get into wheel wars at Conservapedia when I disagree with an administrative action). Having the tools on another site, I know it doesn't really give a person a lot more power or influence; I would be interested in contributing to our wiki in ways I can't do as an ordinary user, but I wouldn't be upset if I didn't make it. I'm not dying to be an administrator here; I've thought about it numerous times over the years, I ran for it once before, and sometimes I've honestly thought to myself there's no way I would want it, but if you think I'd have a shot at RfA, I'd be willing to give it a go. However, I would want to wait a little while to work on some of the content building projects I have planned before running for RfA, because while I plan on working on those regardless, the finished work would probably look good in an RfA discussion.

 * With the utmost respect, I doubt that your association with Conservapedia (I'm not too familiar with that publication) would be considered a "positive" based on what the name implies because it automatically establishes a preconceived notion of bias, even though you may be the most unbiased editor on the planet. I've not collaborated with you to the extent that I would feel comfortable expressing an opinion either way. It takes years to establish a persona on WP, and even then, there's a likely chance one's motives could be misinterpreted. I have long since learned that one's chances of passing the scrutiny of the community is much better when a respected admin (or 2) presents the nomination, and even then, there is no guarantee. I will occasionally express approval of specific comments that I feel are based in common sense & correct comprehension of RS, but I don't read anything more into a comment than what it represents at that moment.  I don't want to discourage you in any way from exploring your full potential - I am somewhat of a defender of editor retention on WP, especially when I see injustices, the latter of which is uncommon but it does happen. I am also one who encourages new editors to explore their full potential...and will help guide them however I can by whatever means available to us.  I am intensely focused on helping to build a quality encyclopedia.  With the latter in mind, I encourage you to learn as much as you can about the WP community, spend as much time as possible learning our PAGs, and remember...WP has no deadlines.  Thank you for sharing your views, and please feel free to comment on my TP whenever you feel inspired to do so. <span style="text-shadow:#F8F8FF 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em,#F4BBFF -0.2em -0.3em 0.6em,#BFFF00 0.8em 0.8em 0.6em;color:#A2006D">Atsme 📞📧 00:48, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the response. I've been around Wikipedia for over ten years actually (despite the name, I am not a high school student; I created the account when I was in high school), so I am familiar with some of the things you have pointed out (no deadlines, for example). I like that you are interested in editor retention and encouraging new editors, because I feel a lot of people these days are quick to assume bad faith. Part of the reason I don't change my name is because I'm hoping to set an example that almost anyone can become a Wikipedian and make a difference for the project. I look back at my earliest contributions and I see I was kind of cheesy in my early years at the encyclopedia, but apparently people liked my contributions enough for me to still be here, and there's no reason why young editors or even inexperienced older editors can't do the same in 2018.

 * It's okay, that just further proves my point that the fact that I'm 26, almost have enough credits for an associates degree, and have been here for over ten years really doesn't make me better than 14 year olds or 84 year olds who are new to the project. I just have more experience with it and its policies. PCHS-NJROTC  (Messages)Have a blessed day. 03:19, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in study
Hello,

I am E. Whittaker, an intern working with the Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please reply to this message or email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview. .

 * Yeah just a little fun there . But it is pretty clear by the almost exaggerated writing is that 1 conforms with the ideas of NPOV. The upsetting part is 2 is not far off from what I have seen in places. PackMecEng (talk) 15:44, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Neither, I'm afraid. 2, is, of course, a coatrack. But, if (as I suspect is intended) consensus in the scientific community is that chemtrails do not cause aluminum strips to fall to earth, then 1 isn't NPOV either. "recieved mixed reviews" (misspelled, by the way - "I before E except after C ...") does not cover it. The scientific consensus needs to be mentioned prominently and early, such as in the second sentence as 2 does. --GRuban (talk) 16:26, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
 * GRuban....BZZZZZT for reading something into the example that isn't there, re: the validity of the claim 😆.

 * I think that it's obvious that #2 is flawed beyond repair. Almost an attack page. Things that would need fixing in #1 are: "received mixed reviews but had wide appeal" needs to be attributed to a source, as would "debunking Pounds' theory". These are judgments/opinions that need to be made clearer. Were all the reviews "mixed", or were some very positive and some very negative? How "wide" is "wide appeal"? Was it a debunking in the opinion of the codpiece engineers, or was their position adopted by a wider preponderance of sources? And can I get a job as a codpiece engineer? --Tryptofish (talk) 18:39, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

No indictment
What are they going to do when the investigators come back and say they are not recommending indictments? Maybe they can talk about his hair or tan again?--MONGO 16:02, 24 May 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm concerned that the way much of the info has been/is being presented is a wrong fit for the pedia and a much better fit for a news outlet, like WikiTribune. I've heard the horror stories about the Obama related articles back when, and what editors went through during his term, so there appears to be a pattern of strong partisan biases at work. The frenzy will eventually fade, and project editors/gnomes/reviewers will hopefully fix the bulk of what's wrong with those articles.

It fascinates me when the childish argument that FoxNews is not reliable when CNN, MSNBC, NY Times, NBC, ABC and CBS and in particular 60 Minutes have all had to retract stories, issue corrections, have been sued and have a general mediocre to bad track record for neutrality, yet they espouse those sources are superior to Fox in everyway. And anyone bringing BBC or The Guardian in here as bastions of neutrality must be nuts.

Since I'm working a bit handicapped (one-eyed which I am not accustomed to) and it's difficult to follow lines of text when they won't stay put (or at least that's how it seems)...please point me to the paragraph in this article wherein it says Conservatives and progressives alike have said that the scope of Trump's scandals may be bigger than the Watergate scandal.

 * Sorry, misread your question at first. Not there, oh wise one. (If it worked for Odin...) The article says "Conservatives say alleged FBI 'spying' on Trump is bigger than Watergate" (right in the title) but that's not really "the scope of Trump's scandals" as such. And as for progressives, it even says (paragraph 2) "Liberals, on the other hand, said there is no evidence to support the Spygate theory" so they don't agree in any case.

re terence hogan
Wow Atsme how did you find that file number, it has shocked the whole family!!! Where were you back then, we could have solved every major crime in Britain!!. I told you that you were brilliant. I have something to tell you re dads best friend George 'Taters' Chatham, Britain's biggest safe blower. When I was a kid my dad used to take me to Taters caravan parked in a secluded area of Box hill Surrey. I always thought it was strange that the caravan had wallpaper. One day he pealed a bit back and behind it was thousands and thousand of pounds. A new neighbour moved near me recently, she was a policewoman back in the day. She still has Police Gazette magazines and I was flicking through them and there was Taters caravan. exactly as it was, in some sort of Police holding memorabilia area. To this day I still do not know if the wallpaper was stripped back!. We have a mystery in the family and I know it would be probably impossible for you to know but everyone says ask Detective Atsme her thoughts. My father's father (if he was the father) was called William Hogan. I believe my dad paid him off the night of his engagement to my mum. If I was to try and trace him, he would be deceased now but how possible is that without an address or date of birth I could find when he died?. My Grandmother Rose never talked about him.. ever. Anyway we wait for more updates and its fantastic to have something fresh, and we have baked a cake for Rehman although it will be old by the time it reaches him, but I will attempt to bake you a cake too, although you may need urgent medical treatment after tasting my cooking ;) fond wishes and Many Thanks kareenza Kareenza (talk) 20:10, 25 May 2018 (UTC)


 * ...how funny - detective, ha!! Not quite but I will say...the investigative work reminded me a little of trying to track down my nightmarish first hubby, Mr. Lothario. SMirC-chuckle.svg  But seriously, finding those sources was just a matter of spending time on Google and reading the material I found, then following the links (clues).  What I need is a PDF of page 3, Daily Express (London), Wed. 28 Nov 1962. I put a request in at the resource exchange, but if you can get a copy of that page at a local library, it would help bunches.  Daily Express has an archive online - I managed to see a thumbnail of the page (with my one good eye *lol*) but it was so tiny, I couldn't read it.  I tried to sign-up as a guest, but that went all wrong, too. Maybe someone local could get me that copy?


 * , regarding your curiousity about genetics, check ancestry.com - start by searching your father’s birth certificate in the vital records, census reports, etc. and try building a family tree. Once you have his father’s name, you can probably track everything down from there. I was surprised to see how much information they had available. For example, my mother’s parents were immigrants from Italy, and found the roster with their names included on the ship they came over on, when they arrived at Ellis Island, etc. I also did the DNA sampling to learn more about my heritage...pretty interesting stuff. <span style="text-shadow:#F8F8FF 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em,#F4BBFF -0.2em -0.3em 0.6em,#BFFF00 0.8em 0.8em 0.6em;color:#A2006D">Atsme 📞📧 15:56, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Apologies if I seem to be trashing your efforts on Wikipedia, that's definitely not my intention. I recognize that my comments on AE are based on a narrow set of posts by you - which is why I explicitly said "I'll leave it to others". Supporting editors you believe are being wronged is not necessarily a bad thing but, like all passionate endeavors, it can come with a cost. If you're doing good work, enough people will recognize it and will turn out to support you (as, for example, MelanieN has done) and you shouldn't take it personally.

Also, King Arthur, the big guy, himself. I didn't try to actually rewrite it (just changed graphics and various links and removed all the ADs too) because an FA and so I'm not touching it, but there are some big problems as I said at the talk page at I have a particular problem with a chunk of the article sort of focusing on Arthur being cucked, which is fine for something like a satirical or revisionist novel, but here for it being encyclopedic it's just very misleading. This motif was rather simply of an infidelity between his wife and best friend, which was supposed to be romantic (usually, even if it's a sin) and not humiliating, and his reaction upon discovering it was to literally try to burn her alive, and all this led to a huge war and his death (in the by far best known tradition), which is all apparently not just not explained there and not even mentioned in the article anywhere at at all. Maybe you might get someone to have it resolved? When I was rewriting Lancelot & Guinevere I mentioned the war only very briefly because I thought it would be more of it there, but now I think of getting into it in more detail for Lancelot at least. Also maybe something like a list of conflicts of Arthur(s) as an article (if not perhaps a book if I get to write any). SNAAAAKE!! (talk) 22:49, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi Atsme. I would ask that you consider revising your recent changes to University of Mississippi. It is not typical for a University page to have as much history in its lede section. Also, some of the content you have posted is incorrect, c.f., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Chancellors_of_the_University_of_Mississippi. Thanks for your consideration.

 * - I started a discussion on the article's TP. Please describe the content you say is incorrect in that section. The material I used comes straight from RS, so if there is updated information or corrections that need to be made, please provide the sources. Thank you. <span style="text-shadow:#F8F8FF 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em,#F4BBFF -0.2em -0.3em 0.6em,#BFFF00 0.8em 0.8em 0.6em;color:#A2006D">Atsme 📞📧 21:14, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Northstar College
Please note that I declined your speedy deletion nomination of Northstar College due to the fact that educational establishments are specifically excluded from A7 criteria. <b style="color: Blue;">Canterbury Tail</b> <i style="color: Blue;">talk</i> 15:17, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Thank you, Amory - POTY has so many incredible pictures - some are works of art. I can spend hours just looking at them.
