Re: dopplegangers
Can you elaborate on what you mean by stating that my dopps aren't registered accounts? I thought I had registered them; what do I need to do to ensure they are registered, and someone else cannot stake a claim? - Arcayne   (cast a spell)  02:05, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
 * They are not accounts, I found them listed at Database reports/Ownerless pages in the user space, if you look at the toolbox, they don't have user related options, contribs, logs etc, all you're done is create userpages for them. I'm not certain but I believe you simply register the account as you did for your original one-- Jac 16888 Talk 02:10, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I rather thought had done so. I will give it a whirl again, and ring you up if I run into some difficulties. -  Arcayne   (cast a spell)  02:22, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I wasn't trying to have them be alternate accounts that I would edit under. They were sinply to prevent a user from snatching up the account and impersonating me at some point. - Arcayne   (cast a spell)  02:28, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I know, but they still need to be registered. At the moment another person could still register them and start impersonating you-- Jac 16888 Talk 02:29, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I jsut tried to sign up for all of them, and am being told that the account names are already in use - as my DOPPs. Give it a try and tell me what yoyu thinl. Obviously, I would ask that if you find yourself able to set up the account, that you not do so. - Arcayne   (cast a spell)  03:09, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I tried the first one, I told me that it was too similar to other names, didn't say it was already in use. What I suggest you do is follow the instructions here, Request an account, unfortunately its not something I know much about. Fill in the form, explain the reasoning, give a link to this convo, and they should be able to help you out-- Jac 16888 Talk 03:18, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Not sure why linking to another page within Wikipedia is inappropriate, but I'll take your word for it. Not sure why me working on the article for the team is a conflict of interest either, as I have taken great pains to ensure a NPOV on the article despite my association with it.

LIMSpec deletion
I was wondering as to the rationale behind deleting LIMSpec. That is an industry term in the laboratory informatics industry, coined by its trade association, the Laboratory Informatics Institute. It is a generic template consisting of areas to provide lab information to potential vendors, and a set of standardised functional requirements, numbered and categorised, so that labs may more easily create RFPs, RFQs, RFIs etc. It also functions as a documentation matrix as their informatics system(s) grow and change, logging maintenance, etc. and providing an area to support validation and verification.

I look forward to hearing from you - I can be reached at avmuso@yahoo.com.

Salomon Isacovici
Dear Jac 16888, I happen to have been present during the writing of the book, which is visual proof. ALso, I happen to know that the author has just told me the following: Los puntos básicos son que hay un contrato firmado por ambas partes y que reposa en la biblioteca del congreso de USA en que expresamente se señala que Salomón me contrató para escribir su autobiografía, que él irrspetó el contrato y que lo publicado fue escrito por mí.

In other words, stop denying the truth. How can I possibly prove to you that all I am saying is true? As I state, the community supported Isacovici, leading to there to be a lot of FALSE information circulating on the Internet. Let me know how you want me to prove it to you, but you've got to stop spreading misinformation on wikipedia

Thanks, Hoolio9690 (talk) 21:54, 9 February 2009 (UTC) Hoolio9690
 * Well we'll address these separately since its easier that way. Firstly, if you personally know the subject of the article, then you shouldn't even be writing about him, see WP:Conflict of Interest. Secondly, I was there when the book was written and never saw anyone else. Actually I wasn't, but you can't prove that, you are not a reliable source, just as I'm not. I have reverted your edit again, although I changed autobiography to biography, as the article stands it doesn't say that Isacovici wrote the book, and it mentions the claim that Juan did. If you want to add it again, find a source other than yourself. Finally, I am not "spreading misinformation on Wikipedia", all I care about is making sure everything I see is sourced reliably-- Jac 16888 Talk 22:08, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

I JUST UNDID WHAT YOU DID, BUT YOU'VE TAKEN IT BACK AGAIN. PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS BEFORE MAKING ANY CHANGES. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hoolio9690 (talk • contribs) 22:02, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I was in the process of replying when you reverted. Here's what's going to happen now. You are going to read and take in the above. You are then going to revert yourself, and not re-add it again til you find a reliable source. I suggest you do that straight away-- Jac 16888 Talk 22:08, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Jac1688: I do not mean to irritate you. However, may I just ask whether there is any more reliable source than direct contact with the author himself? I'm apparently not supposed to be related according to guidelines. I didn't know this. However, couldn't the matter be proved by checking the library of congress of the USA? Apparently, in the library of congress of the USA there's a settlement that states that Juan Manuel was the author. Is that a sufficient source? My whole point is that what I'm saying is true and all I need is to prove it to you so that it will stay. Do you need an email from the author's university email? What type of source do you need? I am fully aware that you need a source, but I'm just unsure about how you want me to get it. As this is a controversial issue, there are probably plenty of sources and articles on the Internet which state that Isacovici wrote the book. Why? Because a whole community of friends helped each other. Only because there's an article on the Internet does not make it reliable. However, what I'm saying IS TRUE. Exactly how do you want me to prove it to you? I know you're only trying to keep reliable information on Wikipedia, but you must understand my concern when I get on and find something that is blatantly wrong. Could you please tell me what source to use. After all, if we actually searched in the library of congress we'd solve this issue. I'm sorry for all the trouble. I appreciate any help. Thanks, Hoolio9690 (talk) 22:38, 9 February 2009 (UTC) Hoolio9690
 * If the library of congress has that info, then it will be sourceable in some way, or else there will be sources out there. If not, then numbers win, if there are many people saying one thing, versus just you saying another, I have to believe them, its more likely they are correct than believe there is a big conspiracy going on-- Jac 16888 Talk 22:43, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

[] Ummm...Nope. In this case, there is a 'big conspiracy' going on. It's extremely feasible: pay a load of lawyers, get a lot of friends to help you out. Anyway, this matter has apparently been solved legally, but not on the Internet, where the friends of Isacovici continue to spread the word that he wrote it. How do you gain access to the library of congress through the Internet? The only way I really see of finding that source is by going to the library of Congress in person, unless you have any suggestions. And I'm not able to do that. And in reference to the conflict of interest, I may know the author, but I haven't been sent by him to change this information. I'm doing it because I don't want Wikipedia to be spreading misinformation.Hoolio9690 (talk) 22:54, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Hoolio9690
 * I find it very hard to believe that there is a big conspiracy over something so minor. If there has been a legal resolution, there will be records available online. I suggest you find them. If there are more sources against you then for you, then tough, go find more. Source beats no source everytime-- Jac 16888 Talk 22:57, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

I know you find it hard to believe it, but it isn't. This is the story: Juan Manuel wrote the book from having talked to Isacovici on numerous encounters. Isacovici died in 1998, but left a letter that claimed he had written the book completely and it was his autobiography. Juan Manuel tried to defend his position against all the numerous people who supported Isacovici and many articles were thrown around the Internet. Lawyers were called, but the lawsuit didn't go all the way through due to the expense that it is to have a lawsuit. So, the agreement was made that they were co-authors, and at least that can be confirmed everywhere on the Internet. And yet, in the library of congress, it states that Juan Manuel was the only author. No articles have been put up on the Internet concerning the truth of the story becuase Juan Manuel decided it was an unfair battle he could not win. Thus, the Internet is full of articles against Juan Manuel. I know this story seems hard to believe because anyone could be inventing it or supporting the other side of the argument. What occurs is that you must agree that the Internet is not infallible or containing all the information known to man. So, can't we make a compromise of some sort? Can't it be stated that there are two versions of the story or put one of those little markers that Wikipedia sometimes includes that says that the site needs more sources? By the way, it wasn't something "so minor". If you were to write a whole book and then people stole the authorship and then you were helpless against their pressure, I'm sure you wouldn't be too happy. Once again, I just want the truth to be known. I will continue searching for a source, but I really think we should make a compromise of some sort. After all, the Internet is not perfect and I can't just hop down to the Library of Congress. Once again: [] Hoolio9690 (talk) 23:30, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Hoolio9690


 * I've rewritten and sourced those sections. Jac16888 and Hoolio9690, could you take a look at my changes and see if they're okay? Cunard (talk) 00:05, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks alright to me, nice and neutral. Good job-- Jac 16888 Talk 00:07, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I'm afraid you were wrong, my friends. Internet information is not always actually true. The article has now been reedited but with more than enough proof of authorship. In other words, all those sources introduced by Cunard are unreliable and false! I'm afraid, I was right. [] Good luck trying to prove me wrong now.Hoolio9690 (talk) 03:42, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Hoolio9690

 * Thanks. I know what you mean about PNT, although I'm quite pleased with the progress we're making now, e.g. CAT:PNT is down to 9 items as I write this, when I first got involved, only a month or two ago I think it was around 70ish items. Actually since you're here, I could do with your opinion on something. A few times there have been article listed at PNT that was a foreign language (non-latin alphabet based ones) version of an article, different text but nothing new or usable. Some of these, I deleted as G6 non-controversial maintenance based on the following logic - if it was in English it would be redirected, if the title of that redirect was too obscure, it could be deleted as an R3. What do you think? Acceptable criteria fit or am I pushing IAR a bit far? -- Jac 16888 Talk 16:14, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, I use IAR a bit differently here and redirect the foreign language title (if usable) to the english article (redirects are cheap, and if someone ever looked at the history, the untranslated text would still be there), but I think you're solution is fine. Have a nice day. Lectonar (talk) 08:17, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

However, I suppose I can see the logic in what you're saying about waiting a year, maybe it'll give him time to grow up. See what he says, but don't make any promise's, assuming good faith is great but we don't want to shoot ourselves in the foot-- Jac 16888 Talk 01:46, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I saw you had commented on Skyegirl173's talk page about this article. While I do not doubt the artist himself is notable, his children, their names, and their ages are not; nor are the children in the public spotlight. There are those who prey upon the subjects of our articles, and the children of our article subjects are particularly vulnerable. There is a bit of a tightrope we have to walk when it comes to BLPs, including factual and significant information, while leaving behind the trivial, particularly if the trivial is potentially harmful. This article has been vandalised a lot (to the point the subject has apparently mentioned it in radio interviews), so it needs to be kept as tightly edited as possible.

...I'm baaack.......
Hello why did you not agree with me on the old user, I had only vandalized a little bit and you agreed with someone that I should be indefinetly blocked, how was I a vandalism-only account! Anyway, have a good day.--Starwars1791...continued (talk) 03:43, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello, you recently deleted User:Jackyd101/Workbox2 for some reason. Please restore it immediately because (as described on my user page) I need to use the article history and move log in the creation of new articles.--Jackyd101 (talk) 10:17, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Userlink removal on List of fraternities and sororities in the Philippines
While I appreciate that having userlinks is somewhat inappropriate, for the removal of the userlink on Gamma Pi Epsilon, it would have been better if the text for the link had been left without a link rather than being removed.Naraht (talk) 03:07, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * You're right, I was a bit unsure about that one, I sure if that was just the link or the name and link, apparently I wrongly concluded it was the former. Sorry for the inconvenience-- Jac 16888 Talk 03:16, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * No problem. Just sort of a shock to see another registered user doing something there. Most of the editors other than myself are from the Philippines and don't bother to register.:(Naraht (talk) 03:47, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Question
You removed a reference from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_View_from_Here&curid=12316296&diff=272718231&oldid=261262975 and explained that the reference wasn't usable. Please explain why this wasn't a usable reference. Thanks Christopher Rath (talk) 03:11, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Sure thing, the reason its not usable as a reference is that we have absolutely no way of knowing that User:Brightav is actually Bob Bennett, meaning that we can't verify it was really him who wrote the content, hence, the ref is unusable. I could quite easily claim to be anyone I wanted here, and you wouldn't know whether or not I really was-- Jac 16888 Talk 03:17, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * That makes sense. I appreciate you taking time to provide a rational answer.  Do you have any suggestions on where first-person accounts of information can be "logged" so that the information may ultimatley be used in WP? Christopher Rath (talk) 15:14, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your deletion of "Kalju Kahn" last night
Dear Jac16888,

I noticed that you were one of the editors who deleted a page titled "Kalju Kahn" ( Kalju Kahn a UCSB (University of California, Santa Barbara) lecturer – not a professor -- is a the most untrustworthy person of all ...). Today I was in a victim of a rather cruel act (a local media fell into a hoax by a broadcasting a fake police press release, please see http://www.keyt.com/news/local/40538012.html). Could you please contact me via e-mail kalju@chem.ucsb.edu because I hope that Wikipedia might have some evidence that is helpful for solving this case.

Sincerely,

Kalju Kahn

adminhelp

 * Hello Jac16888. I'm having a problem with another user, User:Xashaiar, whos has been:
 * Reverting some of my edits (such as [this] and many others) and warning me on vandalism, even tough it is clearly not vandalism;
 * Wikistalking me.
 * Offending me and other users:
 * "1. Do you have problem to understand my funny-way-of-making-points? (This seems to be the case because you fail to understand the meaning of alexander of republic of macedonia). Is this due to your english? Let me remind you that you are involved in editing English wikipedia.", "Please let us keep wikipedia clean from street-fashion-show-comedy-tv definitions free", "Your edit to Iran (and Aniran) related articles are unacceptable and show a possible limited-to-fox-tv understanding of the word Iran." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Xashaiar#Alexander)
 * Acusing me and other users os being sock puppets:
 * []
 * []
 * At the end of []
 * And reverting edits again and again to force a POV, offending other users (as can beseen on his talk page) and overall allways trying to force a bias POV favorable to Iran, such as removing "the Great" from every mention of "Alexander the Great", etc.
 * My question is, how do I proceed? I haven't been editing seriously for long, and this is the first user who seems to openly act like a troll, and I do not want to wage war here on wikipedia. Thats why I asked for help of an administrator. Thank you. Uirauna (talk) 23:48, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Hello? Please apologise my insistence. Uirauna (talk) 22:15, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Let me mention who is keeping removing the title "the Great". Look at this one (which shows that the title "the great" is taken from others and the sole purpose of the user is not to correct the title of Alexander) and this other one (again removing the title the great from Xerxes name). The user said "it was a mistake" but It is almost impossible for me to see this repeated act as a mistake. Also look at this. According to these three links I ask the admin to determine who is pushing for POV (note that anything Iranian/Persian gets changed. Look at the change of numbers and the inconsistent change of order.). If the user had only one purpose of correcting the title of Alexander, then why removing the title from others?? Now we come to reverting: what is the problem of having 2 maps in an article when the maps are different: one is a beautiful historical map and one is a label-free computer map. Both are nice. I fail to understand this.--Xashaiar (talk) 00:15, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Apologies, forgot about this. Basically, for starters, I recommend you both just calm down. There is no need to get stressed out over such a minor point, do you really think anybody reading it will mind that much either way? Secondly, Xashaiar, this, [this], was way out of order, don't ever do that again. In fact it would appear in general that you have a hard time assuming good faith. Consider that perhaps you're not the only one with the best interests of the project in mind. Both of you need to just try discussing this rationally and peacefully, otherwise this will just end up blowing up and causing you months of unnecessary stress-- Jac 16888 Talk 09:21, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

My Userpage
Excuse me, why did you delete my userpage? Granted it was a copy of someone else's userpage, but I don't think there's a rule banning me from doing that? I'd appreciate it if you reinstated it please. Thanks KS3 Maffs (talk) 13:44, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Not a chance. You can't just copy someone elses userpage, since none of it is relevant to you. For starters you were using it to claim you're an admin- which you're not. It stays deleted-- Jac 16888 Talk 13:46, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
