In re: "Daisy Bell"
Hello, Horses: I got your message regarding my edits to the Daisy Bell article. While I am not married to any editorial changes I make on wikipedia, I do question the rationale you gave for deleting my edits, viz., that "it didn't appear constructive".

The article is allegedy about a popular song from the 1890's, yet more than half of the original article was about mid-20th century efforts at computer voice synthesis. While Daisy Bell did indeed play a part in those efforts, that is, in fact, a relatively minor part of the song's long history. Please note that I didn't delete any of the computer material, even though most of it is irrelevent to the history of the song, and should probably be placed in an article on computer voice synthesis.

My edit did two things: it provided the original lyrics to the song, which were not present in the article, and it included information about the parodic use of the song, a function which the song has fulfilled for more than a century, and far longer than it's use with computers.

In other words, I think my addition was constructive, as it balanced the irrelevent material in the article with relevent material about the song itself.

I would suggest that you put it back. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.95.43.249 (talk) 22:05, 31 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I thought the edit to Daisy Bell was an improvement overall. I don't know about adding the lyrics; it's usually not done. I thought the sourced information was interesting, though, and I agree that the "Milestones in Technology" information needs to be de-emphasized. Willondon (talk) 03:04, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

 * No, let the "page in question" go through the discussion so the Wikipedian community can determine whether or not it "meets all requirements". For the most part, we don't allow only one person to make such a large decision. --I dream of horses (T) @ 05:40, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Paula Hahn-Weinheimer


A tag has been placed on Paula Hahn-Weinheimer requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Re: Miss_Earth_Australia
Hi I dream of horses,

It is indeed unfortunate that an event like Miss Earth Australia, which has been running for over 10 years has ended up being a scam run by a notorious fraud. The current president, Roselyn Singh, has a long history perpetrating various scams on unsuspecting victims. Before anybody gets involved with Miss Earth Australia, under its current ownership (since 2013), they should be aware of who they are dealing with before committing money, services or in kind assistance.

The allegations against Roselyn Singh are well founded and supported by irrefutable evidence. As search for Miss Earth Australia lands some users on Wikipedia the information provided aids Roselyn Singh secure more victims. Wikipedia is effectively supporting fraud whilst it denies readers an opportunity to make an informed decision on this event (Miss Earth Australia).

We do hope you will reinstate the link to "Miss Earth Australia - A Scam? (http://www.datatheft.com.au/2014/09/miss-earth-australia-official.html)

Thank you

Kind regards

Nice catch Re: MTG sets
Nice catch- I attempted to make a constructive edit to List of Magic: The Gathering sets and my cloud-to-butt extension made two others elsewhere in the page, which I didn't spot.

Help! Want to upload an image but I don't know where to start.
I want to upload an image for the Fruela Fuente article. It's a picture from one of his modeling shoots and because it has been featured on blogs, newspapers articles, etc. I thought it would be okay to use for the article. But I don't know what the license for the photo is (especially since it was probably taken in Spain, where Fruela lives, so I don't know what there photo licenses are), so I haven't uploaded it yet cause I'm Wikipedia will delete it. I don't know what to do next. Knowledgeispwerr (talk) 18:52, 2 November 2014 (UTC).
 * since I don't think this page's editor is online. Start with WP:UPIMAGE. It appears that you are saying that this picture is recent and was not taken by you, in which case it is unlikely that Wikipedia will be able to use it. It does not matter where else it has been used. If it was not (or cannot now be) released by the original copyright holder under a free license that is compatible with Wikipedia's requirements we cannot use it. There is no possibility of uploading the image to English Wikipedia rather than to Commons under a fair use rationale since it would certainly be possible to take a new picture of the person that could be freely licensed.

Better translation and reference to alternative versions
Hi,

I am just about putting the link in a reference in the header, now that I found out how to do it.

Basically I intended to do the following: - Link to replace the dead cassidy link: http://www.countysongs.ie/song/baidin-fheilimi-phelims-boat -> It has a more traditional last verse, knowing that the Sinead used the more modern one not mentioning fish -> In the current version, the word for fish is incorrect: it should be Iasc (whcih plural is éisc but is not needed; but never easc (see http://breis.focloir.ie/ga/fgb/iasc) -> IN your current version, the last verse is a mix of the two tradition - Also the name is better translated as Phelim, especially if the lyrics are not using "Fheidhlimidh"

Overall the link refers to a better transcription and better translation too, especially with the "she" instead of repeating "boat", as it flows better and is closer to the spirit of the song.

Now I leave it to you, as by restoring the page to remove the link, you also removed all the edits I did :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.243.212.225 (talk) 00:23, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I just reverted myself. My apologies. I dream of horses (T) @ 00:53, 3 November 2014 (UTC)


 * No worries, I will complete the edit by moving the link as a reference rather than manually inputted, and I will remove the dead link too. (50.243.212.225 (talk) Proinsias)

I would like my edit to the "Robert Edward" page to stand.
I am his grandson, he passed away many years ago. I just found out that he had a wikipedia page. I said "He was a good man" under his bio. I know there is no reference for this but I just want it to be on the page, because he was a very good man!

Thanks for contacting me. I am new at this and added more content to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_State_Patrol#Controversies You appear to be more experienced and I would appreciate it if you could take a quick look and let me know if I violated any policies or made any other mistakes such as citing too much content from the published news sources. One item in particular I am uncertain about is the citation for the item below which refrences a physical document so I linked to the only page I could find related to the person that created the document.

2011: Dr. Fiona Couper, State Toxicologist - Testimony established a lack of knowledge to give weight to Exhibit 2; Department of Licensing vs. Keith Hughes, Hearing conducted by Hearing Examiner Brad Dahlquist on September 9, 2011, pages 1 – 29, transcribed by Sheri K.

 * You sign by adding four tildes like so ~ . You can thank for signing for you at the moment, but you can't rely on the trusty bot forever.
 * You can't really overcite a controversies section. Eventually, you should be able to integrate the controversies section into the rest of the article.
 * I think putting the information you gave me between should suffice for now. You can look at this essay for more information. I dream of horses (T) @ 03:22, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

Abusive / humiliating connotation in the name description
talk  Alexandra Ms1 12:09 am nov 3 2014

Can we please update the description of name "Alexandra"? Currently existing description of "curse" and "rape portrays a negative message and does not allow for the appropriate use of the academic knowledge in order to neutrally objectively describe a history / background of a name, rather suggest negative connotation to the name of any individual called by this name. ThT does not seem to be fair in comparison with other names which do not suggest any negative connotation.  --Alexandra Ms1 (talk) 05:14, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
