Evolva in Biopunk
why nobody mentioned evolva? (Idot (talk) 01:07, 3 July 2008 (UTC))


 * Do you have a reliable source (author stated, review, article - no blogs) that notes Evolva as being "biopunk"? Your personal opinion or simple obviousness doesn't count. --Loremaster (talk) 02:05, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

False vandalism accusations
Please do not come to my talk page using template messages about "vandalism" when I was removing non-notable trivia from an article following Wikipedia policy. See WP:NOT and WP:ENC if you still do not understand. DreamGuy (talk) 14:38, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
 * it is not false, as it is not a trivia (Idot (talk) 03:28, 21 June 2009 (UTC))
 * I see you rushed off to try to report me for vandalism, where the report was closed by an admin as not being vandalism. Therefore the accusation is false, as I told you. Please take the time to actually read our vandalism policy before making such accusations. You also don't seem to understand what trivia is either. Please spend more time acquainting yourself with how Wikipedia work before trying to edit one. DreamGuy (talk) 18:24, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * One more time: Do not put bogus warnings on my talk page accusing me of vandalism when an admin has already told you that your accusation has no merit. Putting false warnings on pages is a form of WP:WIKIHOUNDING, which can get you blocked for disruption. This is your last warning. DreamGuy (talk) 02:18, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

I understand that you feel strongly
...but please do not make this kind of edit:. Encyclopedia articles and edit summaries are not the right place for shouted statements of conviction. In fact, no page at Wikipedia is appropriate for that. Simply use the talk page to discuss the issue civilly with other editors, and then after resolution is reached there, update the article accordingly. Thank you for understanding that communication is much more productive when it's done in the right context. If you have any questions about this, please let me know. -GTBacchus(talk) 03:44, 21 June 2009 (UTC) It was already discussed on that talk page, which you ignored by putting the trivia back into the article. On top of which, removing triia is a standard procedure on Wikipedia and one which normally does not need to be discussed. Once you were reverted you are the one who needs to get consensus to put the info there, not the other way around. DreamGuy (talk) 18:20, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * In fact user:DreamGuy refuses to discuss anything :-( what I should do? (Idot (talk) 05:14, 21 June 2009 (UTC))
 * aha now he/she ready to discuss! thanks a lot! :-) I'll participate in the discussion as soon as I have time (now unfortunatelly I'm in hurry) Idot (talk) 05:19, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * you removed it few times without ANY discussion! it was discussion Ian.thomson only, not with you! when I wrote in your page that before deletion a section you should discuss it, you just deleted from your page! (Idot (talk) 01:00, 22 June 2009 (UTC))
 * That's true, in kind of a limited way. Once there's a dispute, everyone needs to discuss to obtain resolution, and the version in place while the discussion goes on really doesn't matter. A trivia section is not like a BLP violation, and nobody is hurt by its floating around for a day or two. Once it's clear there's a dispute going on, all reverts count as edit warring, no matter what "side" you're on. -GTBacchus(talk) 23:19, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Korean Cuisine
Hi I noticed you addition to this article. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure someone is going to challenge for verifiability. Can you find a news article that mentions the Korean salad even in it's in Russian? I can help you add that to the article if you can provide a reference. Thanks.Melonbarmonster2 (talk) 02:22, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I think you'd better look a section about cuisine in koryo-saram artilce. And this salad is the most well known korean dish in the former Soviet Union, and sold everywere as korean salad. Or search for "корейский салат" OR "корейская морковь" OR "морковь по-корейски" in google. E.g. gives http://www.korsalat.ru/ whcih has lots of recpies of "Морковь по-корейски" (Idot (talk) 16:47, 31 July 2010 (UTC))

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Uhlan. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page.

Continued flouting of wp:ES
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Tamga. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page.

Wikipedia relies on wp:consensus, and our all adhering to its guidelines.

One such is wp:ES. Please adhere to it, or state why the consensus doesn't apply in your case. Very happy to discuss.

Chronology of 4X video games
Hi, as stated on the page the entries should be reliably sourced. The ones with Wikipedia entries will generally have sourcing on their pages however as the ones that don't have no references on this list they fall foul of WP:RELIABLE so shouldn't be included. Rescendent (talk) 22:27, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * now I see your point, but you'd better add fact to red links rather than delete 'em (Idot (talk) 01:27, 17 July 2011 (UTC))

Hi. When you recently edited Soviet cuisine, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Black coffee (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hey there
You probably shouldn't copy and paste the thread from the archive. I don't think it's standard practice. Biosthmors (talk) 12:37, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
 * how I cold else prevent archiving the ongoing discussion? (Idot (talk) 13:59, 6 August 2013 (UTC))
 * I can help. You could just start a new thread and go to the archives and find a WP:diff of our previous discussion to permanently link to for discussion purposes. For example, I went to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Jimbo_Wales/Archive_139 and then "View history" and to that version to permanently link to the section of interest here. So with a permanent link to a section in the archive, you could use it as a point of reference but start a new discussion thread from where it left off. Best regards.

 * Thank! I'll try! (Idot (talk) 14:25, 6 August 2013 (UTC))

Duplicate discussions
Please do not post the same message (or similar messages) at different locations because it fragments discussions. I have closed the discussions at WP:VPM and WP:VPP with the suggestion that any further discussion should be at User talk:Jimbo Wales. Johnuniq (talk) 08:12, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Soft redirect
Just a suggestion but instead of the soft redirect at the top of this page, you can make it an interwiki link so that it shows up under languages there. In other words, I'd put ru:Обсуждение участника:Idot at the top of the page. A soft redirect makes it seem like we should only post on the Russian version and not here. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 18:44, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
 * it means that I visit English wikipedia usually not every day, but I visit every day Russian wikipedia, so if you write me something here, I'm not sure that I get to know about here (unless the bot informs me) Idot (talk) 19:00, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Help me create a Request for Comment asking that Jimmy Wales step down

This request for comment would argue that the only way to reverse the negative trend of deleting other editors good faith edits would be for Jimmy Wales to step down.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

 * You seem to take issue with solar collectors and wind power. So far as I know Wikipedia has nothing to do with it. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia; we are not a method for you to complain about a public policy. If you have an issue with one of the articles on Wikipedia about those subjects then raise it on the talk pages for those articles. So far as I can see, your issue isn't with Wikipedia content but industry practices and we can't do anything about that. Chris Troutman  ( talk ) 18:43, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
