Some clarifications about the Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds lineup
Hello. I've noticed that you reverted my edit on the NGHFB page and that you left a message on my User talk page. There's been a bit of an edit war about the band lineup recently, as you might have noticed. The correct version was my last edit, just before you reverted it to an older, incorrect version by an anonymous user. Gem Archer ha performed occasionally with the band since December 2015, so 2015 is the correct date (you can check this page on setlist dot fm, for instance, or just look for the gig video on BBC iPlayer or Youtube). Also, the 2017 date makes zero sense since the band hasn't performed yet this year. By the way, I'm not a newbie on Wiki so I know a couple of things about how this stuff works, I'm just not that active on the EN pages. Cheers!

A message from Saharawiki In response to your messges
To: Mlpearc

I just discovered a previously unread stash of demeaning messages that you'd sent me in March via Wikipedia. You sound arrogant and bullying -- with, I suspect, an ego that's seriously entangled in your own writing. (Perhaps you cannot bear a correction.)

Not to reveal the specifics of my identity, but I am an author and journalist, as well as a professional and experienced editor. I've worked with some of the leading publications you are likely to encounter (for all I know, maybe you have, too).

Behind every change I make for writing quality, there's always a logic and, in my view, a strong reason. None of it is arbitrary or capricious. I hope you might be sensitive enough to appreciate that.

With my edits/corrections, I am, for example, attentive to:

- Grammatical Danglers: I always correct them. (e.g. 'Lying in bed in his boxer shorts, the phone rang.' — I hate to think of the phone lying around in its boxer shorts!! Of course, a simple correction might be: As he lay in bed in his boxer shorts, the phone rang. Believe it or not, that sort of thing -- though not quite so amusingly expressed -- crops up regularly in Wikipedia. People not attuned to such errors miss the nuances, but they are significant.)

- Grammatically messy conditions, where, say, the pronoun doesn't agree logically with the immediate antecedent. (That can also be subtle to the untrained ear, but it's a real error that also appears frequently in Wikipedia.) I always correct that, as well.

- The passive voice. It's a weak construction that hobbles good writing. So, whenever possible, I turn passives into actives -- but always and only when the modification improves the flow and general quality of the text.

- Repeated words or phrases in close proximity: not optimal and not usually great writing, if better alternative wording choices are available. So, I make those changes.

- Run-on sentences.(They are grammatically incorrect -- and can exhaust the reader.)

- Excessive, roundabout verbiage or lack of clarity. If writing can be succinct and clear -- without sacrificing meaning or content -- why run on at the mouth? Sometimes there's a compelling argument for streamlining or compression (again, with the understanding that no valuable content gets lost).

- Etc. (I think I've given you enough specific examples.)

Your messages to me were not only aggressive and inappropriate, but seriously out of line. Is this the way you treat everyone? Ouch. Saharawiki (talk) 23:10, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

A message from 72.23.96.191
Hello. I was editing the times for some Pink Floyd albums as they were incorrect. Both Allmusic and the albums added to YouTube by Pink Floyd have the correct times, as I was trying to change them to these. How can I cite that I was using Allmusic as the source for the correct times? Thanks.

72.23.96.191 (talk) 22:22, 28 April 2017 (UTC)


 * You need to source your changes, since many versions have unique times, we stay with what has been there which means you must gain consensus for those times. -  Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 22:51, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

I don't understand what is wrong. I have cited the source for Allmusic for all my changes.

72.23.96.191 (talk) 23:03, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

Image size
Hey there. I know that per WP:IMAGESIZE we are not supposed to force a fixed image width without a good reason. However, in recent runs updating deprecated infobox image syntax, I have been routinely challenged when removing fixed image sizes that I believe are marginally similar to infobox template defaults. This occurred most recently with Infobox planet, which prompted my preserving the image sizes for someone else to challenge later (as in Titan (moon)). Is image_size literally deprecated, or are you trying to enforce WP:IMAGESIZE? Thanks. — TAnthonyTalk 23:54, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

Multiple reverts in SR-71 article
Good evening. You have (again) reverted my edit in Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird by which I had put it into category "Low wing aircraft". Your quoted "reason" was that this fact is "Not mentioned in article".

Well, obvious facts do not necessarily have to appear in a written form. As an example take the article about the BAC One-Eleven aircraft. Nowhere in the text would you see "low-wing", but would you really claim that it is not a low-wing aircraft after looking at all the photographs?

In the SR-71 article you can find a fine 3-view drawing which quite clearly shows its characteristics. If still in doubt, please read the definition of Low wing.

Self-evident facts taken from a photograph need no additional written confirmation to be considered as valid. Please put the mentioned category in place again. Thank you. --Uli Elch (talk) 19:00, 23 May 2017 (UTC)


 * If you're going to categorize something in an article it needs to be addressed in said article. According to your talk page you've had issues with categories before, I suggest you review WP:MOSCAT - Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 19:04, 23 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Given the low fuselage profile of the SR-71, and the fact that the wing does not emerge below the fuselage, but somewhere kinda near the bottom, it is a matter of original research to declare, without verification, that this is a "low wing" aircraft. This is a grey area where the information is not self-evident, and therefore requires sourcing. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:06, 23 May 2017 (UTC)


 * @ User:Mlpearc: Please mention which unresolved "issues with categories" you claim to have found. The edit of MilborneOne lead to a very friendly and successful discussion on page Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft. Btw, when reading the history of your own talk page or your List of User contributions, there are many "issues" with other editors ("Revert, Final warning, Revert, Warning, Undid revision, Revert" - almost no positive contents added. I cannot consider it fitting to your own claim (top of page) that you are "open to civil discussion" when you "suggest you review WP:MOSCAT".
 * @ WikiDan61: Once again, please read the definition of Low wing which should make it absolutely clear.
 * WP:CAT requires the categorization to be verifiable: "It should be clear from verifiable information in the article why it was placed in each of its categories." There is no need to have a written documentation for everything: "... or if the article gives no clear indication for inclusion in a category." A clear photograph or drawing is a valid source and a clear indication and thereby a verification - no original research at all.
 * If you are unwilling to accept the BAC 111 article as an example, take a look at Bellanca Aries. Somebody (not me) put it into the categories "Single-engined tractor aircraft" and "Low-wing aircraft". This is unsourced (the note 1] refers to AG-250 only). When looking at the picture would you really claim those categories are "original research"? --Uli Elch (talk) 19:59, 23 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I have read the definition provided of "low wing", and also of "mid wing". Again, given the low profile of the SR71 fuselage, I personally cannot tell which architecture is in play, and without detailed internal schematics of the aircraft, it is not "blatantly obvious" that this is a low wing design. Things that are not "blatantly obvious" require sourcing. That's how we do at Wikipedia. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 20:09, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Why impunitively delete works whose permissions are pending
You're deleting staff that on average takes about a month to be followed thru. Having owners of the works comply is a process, so why not give it time before rapidly deleting the work. We have to hold phone conversations and sometimes meet these individuals personally which takes time. So I don't think it's justifiable for you to just delete something within minutes of upload.

Also, there are works that are owned by agencies of the Uganda Government and they have authorized us in person to use these works since they're of public figures and in the public domain in the country and you still go ahead and simply delete the works within minutes of upload with impunity. It's unfair for you to sit behind your iMac and just delete things. Please stop! — Preceding unsigned comment added by MonkeyKingdom (talk • contribs) 08:40, May 22, 2017 (UTC)

What exactly is wrong with you? We're on the ground right here in Uganda. We personally meet these people. And that image you just deleted was uploaded by the owner himself coz he asked one of our agents to show him how to upload the photos he took with his own phone so that they could be used on his bio since he's a subjet of a Wikipedia article. Those Paul Amoru photos on Commons are not anywhere on the internet. Why don't you just rewrite your own Mlpearc Wikipedia rules instead of trolling our pages.

 * Granted, this user has an issue with uploading inappropriate files. But the image in question for this discussion is a snapshot clearly taken by a private individual and uploaded. Or, at the very least, there is no evidence that this is anything but such a snapshot. The image cannot be found previously published anywhere on the internet and since I (and presumably you) do not have access to every publish book, magazine and newspaper, we cannot verify that it has been published in print.

While neither his image nor the image that he replaced is ideal, it is a matter of opinion which image is of better quality, and certainly the more recent image is preferred, all other things being equal.

 * I haven't time for an OTRS membership, and I'm hoping to avoid a discussion at a procedural level by discussing with you at a personal level. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:34, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
 * After a quick look, this one seems better -  Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 18:19, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

The children are notable as they are today running the families enterprises and are important figures in European society. I believe is different in the US than in Europe. 213.235.32.138 (talk) 15:52, 1 June 2017 (UTC)


 * No, they're not. You can of course seek consensus on the talk page. -  Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 15:55, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

213.235.32.138 (talk) 16:02, 1 June 2017 (UTC) You are wrong. Why would users constantly add information about the children in the page in that case on the personal life section?
 * That's where you do mention non-notable childern, not in the infobox.   Mlpearc Phone  ( open channel ) 18:52, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

Neil Young IP Edit
Hi, I'm not the person who made that edit to the Neil Young article, but this is a school IP address. I'm unsure of Wikipedia's policy regarding that, but if a Block or anything else is necessary that's fine by me, students shouldn't be editing WP during school hours. 50.71.115.106 (talk) 18:48, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

What are you talking about
I'm sorry, I have no idea what you are talking about and if you reply please please do not use a "new WikiLove message" template. - Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 23:20, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

Sorry if I add a Wikilove : The reason is that I AM a Pacific user !

I think you may not remember an advice that you sent yesterday (00:58, 2 June 2017 ) to  me about the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Whale_(game) :

" This is your only warning; if you purposefully and blatantly harass a fellow Wikipedian again, as you did at User talk:GorillaWarfare, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. - Mlpearc (open channel) 00:58, 2 June 2017 (UTC)"

URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Be-Impartial#June_2017

I admit was admired about the act of blocking me freely, when a good sense could resolve a conflit consulting the edition reverted to the last one made edition made by Administrators "User:ClueBot_NG" (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blue_Whale_(game)&oldid=782553862) Be-Impartial (talk) 23:32, 2 June 2017 (UTC)


 * You should direct future comments to . I'm not an Administrator and can not block anyone, I also consider the issue closed. Cheers, -  Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 23:37, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

Light my Fire single from The Doors.
The single for The Doors Light my Fire was released on April 24 1967. If you 'Google April 24, 1967 Doors' every web page will acknowledge that date.

A message from 217.45.31.240
Hi I think you changed my edit to the line about Bowie's mother having Irish ancestry. The actual citation in the article only says that her *father* had Irish ancestry: '[Her father] Jimmy Burns's parents were poor Irish immigrants who had settled in Manchester" p.16 "[Jimmy] had known [her mother] in Manchester. Her name was Margaret Heaton"' Whilst the citation doesn't explicitly say her mother was of English extraction, the name Heaton is certainly English. But whatever the mum's extraction, in the name of accuracy can I suggest the article is changed to make it clear that only Bowie's mother's father was of Irish extraction as at present it is misleading. Personally I think the fact that 2 of Bowie's great-grandparents were from Ireland is not even worth mentioning at all but if it's going to be in this article I think greater clarity is called for. Regards Jon.

hate to be a pain
but - your user page. Not sure why it looks like an article but it shouldn't have article categories on it. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 08:30, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

OTRS
Hi, I can see you're an volunteer, can you please confirm the picture from Wikimedia Commons? It was previously deleted, but I sent an email to permission-commons@wikimedia.org with the proof that the singer allowed me to upload that selfie that was never published on her social networks. The ticket is [Ticket#: 2017052610018124]. Thanks, lemme know if you can do something. — MUST BE  Love on the Brain.  15:12, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

A message from Landscape wiki
See: -  FlightTime  ( open channel ) 21:53, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello. I see that you have reversed all of the edits I made today, for reasons that are quite unclear. Are you an authority on the landscape architecture profession? The edits I am making are objective and are meant to educate the public about this field. They break no norms. I am going to assume that you are not doing this maliciously, but if you continue or do not provide an explanation, I can only assume differently. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Landscape wiki (talk • contribs) 00:05, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
