Banc De Binary
Hello, there's been whitewashing and promotional editing on the Banc de Binary page by CorporateM, could you rollback to Blackkite? Is there anything that can be done about users like CorporateM who see Wikipedia as a cashcow?HistorianofRecenttimes (talk) 11:42, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the note on my wall. CorporateM says on their own page that they are a paid for editor, and even gives a list of pages that they worked on. Why else would they suddenly come in and edit the Banc de Binary page like this when they had no previous interest, bearing in mind that Banc de Binary apparently only just advertised a five figure sum for it. Obviously I can't prove that they were being paid, but CorporateM is a paid for editor previous to this and there was no other reason for their many hours of activity last night. Would it be possible to revert the page back to yesterday's version as left by Black Kite, before CorporateM went to work on it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HistorianofRecenttimes (talk • contribs) 18:47, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
 * , at least is clear about who they are, unlike you. I don't think Corp sees Wikipedia as a cash cow, and if you don't knock this off, I'll block you for personal attacks. You may comment on edits, and even on editors if done civilly, but this is not acceptable. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 02:30, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Great Comet redirect delete
Hi Jim, thanks; maybe you can help. I was trying to move the page Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 to Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, to conform to the formatting found on their official site (http://davemalloy.com/comet.html), but it wasn't letting me do the move, I thought because of the redirect page, so I attempted to delete the redirect page. Is there a way to make the move? Thanks Oboedemon (talk) 06:59, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

For User : 112.207.18.226
You'd recently reported this IP address at WP:AIV, who, according to what I'm seeing, is accused of disruptive editing, vandalism and sockpuppetry. I think this, User_talk:Abhinav, should concern you better. I couldn't comprehend a word out of his 'explainatory pleas', thanks to his advanced level of English language.

So I'm leaving this here and you may wish help him, on whichever talk page you like.

Although, the actions carried out against him are quite fair but I think he could've been greeted with help rather than recurring warnings. Good work nevertheless. Thanks. Abhinav —Ŧ—� 11:36, 10 June 2014 (UTC).

In the Company of Wolves
Terence Stamp is not credited nor mentioned as being "The Devil" in this film, and so I changed this page to reflect this, crediting him as simply "A Man".

Edit to Sphinx_water_erosion_hypothesis
Hi, I made an edit that you reverted on Sphinx_water_erosion_hypothesis. The old link, which you reverted to, goes to Sahara#Climate_history which is no longer a valid link. The correct link should be what I edited, Sahara#History. Apologies for the confusion, I checked of "minor edit" because I felt this was a minor edit.

If removing "prominent" makes you happy then I can live with that.lol. I'm actually Somali and so I know of, know personally, and actually met a lot of the people listed here. My family is a "prominent" family from Somalia. I think I know what I'm talking about when I make edits to pages regarding Somalis etc. Thanks though.

 * May I suggest reading wp:puffery and wp:peacock. Do you feel that Saado Ali Warsame's accomplishments are so small that you have to lard her description up with "prominent"? Jim1138 (talk) 04:14, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

Saado Ali
Jim,

She was prominent and that is an understatement. I did lard or do anything out of the ordinary. Obviously, this page/list was written/compiled by biased individuals who left out notable Somalis and Ms. Warsame was listed in the section politicians under "other" Ms. Warsame is famous for her music and is a prominent figure at that. She was essentially a cultural icon and her songs, activism, and courage was fearless and she was jailed and sadly eventually murdered 2 days ago doing what she did best. Standing up for Somalis and uniting them. The list includes inconsequential artists who are not widely known by Somalis. Thanks for editing but you do not know where my intentions came from! I actually know Ms. Warsame personally and her death came as tragic news to myself and a vast majority of Somalis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NoorAdamVA (talk • contribs) 04:30, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

I couldn't figure out the citation. I tried this:. It left the following text in a gray box like a quote or code. Ideas?

Also, I also thought I was going blind. The PDF was changed from when I edited- the red box on the front page used to say "Efficiency up to 45%!" 63.243.13.194 (talk) 18:11, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
 * If a line begins with a space, it puts it into a box. Might also add |page= p. 4? It does have a copyright date vertically on the last page: 2011, so maybe a |date= 2011? . Thanks for doing this!

You need to check facts before you go off blindly deleting truthful facts and making false accusations
My edits were not vandalism. Anyone that does efficient research on those edits I made will in fact find out they were correct. The assumption was quite abrupt. Check your facts before you go off deleting truth. I am a very proud Irish American and deleting my edits was unnecessary. I study Irish American history and I am passionate about my history. Martin Luther king's great grandfather was an irish immigrant as was Muhammad Ali's. John L. Sullivan was the son of Irish immigrants as was Billy the Kid. Eddie Murphy and Rihanna have irish grandfathers. Jimi Hendrix had an irish immigrant as his great grandfather. Macklemore is almost full blooded Irish, and even wrote a song about it. Owen Wilson is a full blooded Irish American as well. I hope this helped you understand my edits. I assure you that I am not vandalizing. Only trying to give the public a better education on my people. Good day.USA23 — Preceding unsigned comment added by USA23 (talk • contribs) 05:42, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

You apparently do not understand what the consensus on those pages are
You messaged me about my edits to Whitesnake and Dokken saying they are unsourced and have been in violation of the consensus of those pages.

I am not new to Wikipedia. I have closely observed those pages among many others (including the articles of all moderate to very popular glam/hair metal bands) since 2007. For the majority of the history of those pages, the glam metal genre was there in the infobox but are constantly being removed by mostly butthurt users who don't want their favorite bands being associated with an often prejorative genre label. The same goes for Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, W.A.S.P., and Skid Row, all of which have had the glam metal label removed several times from the infobox EVEN WITH sources. Glam metal, even according to Wikipedia itself, is not just "lightweight hard rock with gay-looking musicians with a lot of makeup", i.e. not just the Poison sound. All 6 bands in stake here are associated with the label everywhere in popular culture and on the internet and share a similar sound to all the other bands; there is no logically valid way to say they aren't glam metal. Most people on all 6, including Wikipedia users, would agree. I certainly don't see a majority not agreeing on Whitesnake. I don't need to source glam metal for Dokken and Whitesnake (the other genres aren't sourced either, fyi, nor are they on most articles) because that was ALWAYS there and removed by an unjustified edit a few months prior. I might add sources for those later on just so people stop removing them, but for now, they are not needed.

Furthermore, there is no specific consensus in the talk section of Whitesnake article, nor are there any sources for the other genres in the infobox in the Dokken article, so your reverts are definitely not valid. If you removed my edit, why don't you remove the heavy metal and hard rock genres from Dokken too? I advise you to 1) understand the situation I described above for the articles of these bands, 2) research these bands more and what people associate them with, and 3) research glam metal in general before saying they are not so. 68.99.191.161 (talk) 05:14, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Please cite a WP:RS for your genre edits per wp:V Just because others don't cite sources is no reason for you not to. Jim1138 (talk) 05:18, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I will add sources later cuz they should be there anyway, but did you not read anything I just wrote? Have you seen these pages the past seven years? Why are you not removing the other genres then, and just glam metal (which again was there for the majority of the history of those 6 pages)? You also didn't respond to your assertion of a false consensus in the Whitesnake article. 68.99.191.161 (talk) 05:22, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Add your citation with your edit, please. In this case it's not about consensus, it's about citing sources. Jim1138 (talk) 05:24, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I am gathering sources now before I revert yours (which is trivial cuz this information is everywhere) but before that... I want to know why you are so bent on removing the glam metal status quo but not the other genres which aren't sourced (or at least, why you're not adding sources to those). Shouldn't we be logically consistent here? Do you actually want to help out with the accuracy of these articles and respect the consensus or do you just want to revert everything you do not agree with? You're even keeping pop and hair metal for Whitesnake which are REDIRECTS to glam metal. In addition, stop calling it "my" edits or "my" POV, it is not just "my" anything, the majority of society who knows anything about glam metal, as well as many other users who have kept the glam metal label on those articles would agree. It's also how you cannot say that the other genres that are there are not the work of a single other user. 68.99.191.161 (talk) 05:56, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Others didn't do their paperwork, so you shouldn't either? If you are the long-timer you claim you are, why are you not asking others to cite their sources? Jim1138 (talk) 07:25, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

Of course its long...

Why; there's no copyright notice on the website; the website is in its own words : "Welcome to Truth11.com | Truth11.com is an alternative media and news site that is dedicated to the truth, true journalism and the truth movement. The articles, ideas, quotes, books and movies are here to let everyone know the truth about our universe. The truth will set us free, it will enlighten, inspire, awaken and unite us. Armed with the truth united we stand, for peace, freedom, health and happiness for all" strongly implying that it wants to spread its message - the content is accessible sans member login...

On what basis (besides uncertainty) would you be presuming it is copyright?

"You should ask on wp:teahouse regarding placing this on Wikipedia." Why don't you? The article is clearly desired - I took the time to copy and paste and section format it. I came here _looking_ for it. The work is a 1000+ pages; a summary would be _clearly_ helpful. The summary is a straightforward summary of the gent's text. So.... why not post it to WP teahouse yourself and ask'em? I'm not a regular user on wikipedia (hence the IP address) -- why shouldn't a regular contributor take the time to straighten out this mess?

To be even more specific, the site has a number of social media sites to republish to sociam media. Come on man. Do something right.

Excuse me; how is a plot summary from jekyll's island an unconstructive edit? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.124.176.137 (talk) 04:45, 15 July 2014 (UTC)


 * I have deleted my notice as possibly unfair. However, I am not sure the edit is proper. At least one other editor has made a reversion and added comments on your talk page. I also add some comments. Donner60 (talk) 05:50, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

He reverted a subsequent comment; asking how this edit was unconstructive. I'm not used to wiki's chat system yet. I'll forward your comments to him, since he is citing you as the main objection i.e. another editor reverted.

--

Like I said, the book deserves a summary. Absent any indication that it is copyrighted, and certes, given the clear indication it is _specifically_ intended to be shared; please take the time to go through whatever wiki's review process is and get _something_ up there. This redirect-revert stuff as I noted, is retarded. A large number of other books have summaries posted. Why should this one be any different?


 * User:69.124.176.137 is correct that I posted the above comment on my talk page. I should have been more careful. It was meant to be a summary of my longer comment on his talk page and I now see that it really is not quite right standing alone. This is the first part of what I said on the user's talk page. "I am deleting my notice above. It still appears to me that your edit to this article is unsatisfactory and not in line with Wikipedia guidelines but I think it may have been unfair for me to have characterized it as vandalism, especially at that point." I went on with some further comments.
 * The user is correct that book summaries are included in Wikipedia but they must be in the editor's own words as much as possible and should be written in neutral language. I am concerned that a further, perhaps more detailed, explanation may be needed. That will take more time than the comments back and forth are allowing. Donner60 (talk) 06:21, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

inappropriate use of the article talk page

These discussions are inappropriate.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Cold_fusion&diff=617114870&oldid=617110112

I do not have an account, asserting such things on the article talk page is not useful.


 * You are to: "Comment on content, not on the contributor: Keep the discussions focused upon the topic of the talk page, rather than on the personalities of the editors contributing to the talk page."


 * You are to: "Be welcoming to newcomers: People new to Wikipedia may be unfamiliar with policy and conventions. Please do not bite the newcomers. If someone does something against custom, assume it was an unwitting mistake. You should politely and gently point out their mistake, reference the relevant policy/guideline/help pages, and suggest a better approach."


 * "Do not misrepresent other people"


 * "Do not ask for another's personal details"


 * "If a discussion goes off-topic, the general practice is to hide it by using the templates"

"WP:IPs are people too" might also be of interest.

Please come over to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:College_tuition_in_the_United_States#Inflationary_effects_lacking_in_Loan_Forgiveness_discussion_requested_by_Flyte35 to discuss the recent edit war, as it is regarding the same type of edit as was done just now.71.101.50.196 (talk) 08:21, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Note: I am consolidating discussion of 2 different Wikipedia pages to the talk page of one of them (for simplicity), simply because they involve the same issue; there was an edit was between myself and 1 editor over on the College Tuition in the United States page, and then over on the Higher Ed bubble page, myself and 2 other editors edit-warred. As you are 1 of the 3 editors, I'm acting in good faith and notifying you of the consolidated discussion -even though it will drastically increase the odds that the 3 of you can 'gang up' on me. Note: I did not have to notify you of the other edit war, but I did -even knowing I may get ganged up on by 3 registered editors. Please know that when you remove a truthful, on-topic edit that is *properly sourced*, then it pushes other editors like myself to not want to become registered. So, your actions here are counterproductive, but I will assume good faith: the link in question is right above.71.101.50.196 (talk) 08:31, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

Whitesnake
Rate Your Music is not a reliable source. I removed the Allmusic source because it cited "styles", not genres, and Allmusic "styles" relate to any genre that band has touched on at some point, maybe only briefly. These can be rather numerous and they are not suitable for a Wikipedia infobox, which is designed to aim for generality. If the genres in the genre field on the Allmusic page match the genres in the infobox, then by all means re-add the cite. Genres are troublesome and I wish we didn't have the field in the infobox at all. Sometimes hidden notes can help, telling potential genre trolls to discuss the changes they want to make. Whitesnake has at times been a bit unstable, but those three genres seem to produce the least fuss. Cheers, Bretonbanquet (talk) 02:51, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Would you please add a source for your changes? Again, I really don't care what the genre(s) are, but it should have a source as it has been a problem in the past. Adding a hidden comment does not work nearly as well as a citation. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 03:39, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I haven't made any changes. I have reverted to the long standing genres. If you want to add citations to those, please go ahead. Somebody added glam metal with no discussion and no source. You added arena rock and hair metal (glam/hair metal is just a subgenre of hard rock/heavy metal and arena rock is arguably not a genre anyway - much discussion on this) also with no discussion and a source which wasn't suitable, as I have explained. The IP changed it back to glam metal, claiming a consensus which does not exist. You changed it back. I have reverted to the original version. As I say, if you want to source those three genres, please do so, but I am not obliged to source a version of an article that existed before people fiddled about with it. Cheers, Bretonbanquet (talk) 11:12, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I've just found a very good book source that covers the history of the band and makes clear reference to all three of those genres, so in the interests of concluding this, I've added it. Cheers, Bretonbanquet (talk) 13:26, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Wow, citing a book! Much appreciated. Again, I have no interest what the genre is, just that it would be cited. I wouldn't know what Whitesnake is, if it bit me. Case closed until the next genre warrior. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 17:51, 19 July 2014 (UTC)

Jim interesting prognosis.
Can you please cite how it was biased, the entire article needs to be brought in line.[41][42]uring the 1990s, much of the Jewish-black conflict centered on Jewish involvement with the slave trade. An early controversial comment on that topic was made by professor Leonard Jeffries in a 1991 speech in which he said that "rich Jews" financed the slave trade, citing the role of Jews in slave-trading centers Rhode Island, Brazil, the Caribbean, Curaçao, and Amsterdam.[27] His comments drew widespread outrage and calls for his dismissal from his position. This for instance is heavily pov i believe it should be better edited to reflect it was alleged slave trade involvement and criticism.Loveandpeace&#61;happy (talk) 03:08, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Frame language article
Just FYI on the frame article I've made I think some very substantive points that the other editor never responded to. I followed the process for doing a merge very carefully. No one replied to the discussion I started for months. It is true that someone replied on the other article and I missed that but the template was clear with a direct pointer to the place on the talk page where of the article to be merged, exactly as the template says to do it and no one replied there and I forgot to check the other page. Then weeks (at least) after the merge Auger reverted it with no explanation. Here are my arguments why the merge should have been done and should still be done. Frame and Frame language are the same concept. It's exactly analagous to rule and rule-based system and object (in computer science) and object-oriented language. It's ridiculous to have one article for the singular and one for the plural. Every point that was in the Frame article was in the Frame language article. And the Frame language article after I editied it (I started with that one because it was in better shape to begin with) had solid references. The ONLY thing in the Frame article was a very mediocre attempt at an example. But whoever wrote that had only the most basic understanding of what an ontology or frame are like in actual use. The description could be for ANY abstract data type, a struct in C or a table in a RDBMS. I added an example from the Friend of A Friend ontology and a pointer to that article to the Frame language article. The FOAF is a standard example of an OWL ontology (the modern version of a frame language) that is used in most overview books on Semantic Web technology (SPARQL, OWL, etc.) and it has examples that clearly show how frames and frame languages are different than conventional programming. The Frame article has no inline references, the stuff it says about Minsky is in the frame language article and as I said it's nonsense to have essentially one article for a concept and another for the plural of the concept. Augur has never responded to these arguments. His response is essentially "there was good stuff in the Frame article" that's not an argument. I've never edit warred but in this case I felt and still feel justified. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 15:47, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Here is the section of the article I was referring to. This was clearly linked to in the merge proposal. As you can see no one has responded to the points I made: Talk:Frame_language But in the other places where there has been discussion the response to my points has been the equivalent of just gainsaying the points without rational argument. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 16:09, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Bennett S. LeBow
Jim,

Ok, I can live with the reversion. But I have a question. Since you reverted my post as being uncited, would you be kind enought to answer the following question?

The first 3 paragrahs of the "Leobow" article, in their entirety, under the "education" heading, are not cited at all. Should these also not be deleted as being uncited, or else properly cited? Frankly, I do not think there are citations for some of the information. Thanks, and best wishes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Algyx0262 (talk • contribs) 01:30, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Just asking a question: doesn't the material following the paragraph heading "education" need to be cited? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Algyx0262 (talk • contribs) 17:14, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Citing would be highly desirable. You could flag it with a (shortcut ) or preferably, find sources yourself. See WP:NOCITE and WP:Citation needed for policy.

The talk part is a fair point. After rereading how that article was describing spontaneous emission, I understand that you're correct there (I read it as "The vacuum energy can be experimentally observed in various phenomena such as spontaneous emission", I missed "the effects"). You did undo one edit which was still valid, and that was changing "underlying background energy" to "potential energy", if you could revert that one part.

Here are two sources to add to that line of the article as well: http://www.calphysics.org/articles/Fain1982.pdf http://arxiv-web3.library.cornell.edu/pdf/1006.1804v2.pdf

Thanks for catching that.

 * Sorry, I don't see anything on the above papers on "potential energy". You might just add it back with an appropriate cite and see what happens. You could add your thoughts to talk:Vacuum energy.

I don't quite understand your reversion of my edits
I received the notice that your reverted my edits on The General Theological Seminary page. The intention was to expand on the information about academic offerings by describing the way in which the seminary is implementing theological formation.

Is there a better way to do this? Thank you. GTSComm (talk) 21:29, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

hey jim, i corrected the 15 for 23, because the very source already given says so.

Energy tower (downdraft) Cleaning up Wikipedia is critically important, but
Hey, you removed my edits from Energy Tower (Downdraft) page. OK, if it is in the interest of making the source better. But, if you are going to comment by deleting content, you should know more about the subject. My improvements, even without citations, is better than what is there now. For example: you left in the statement that engine efficiency increases with the differences between air and water temperature. That is not true, may even be the opposite. Take a hot hose that has been laying in the sun and spray it in the air, and feel the cold air that falls. It does not make any difference if the water is hot or cold. To increase the temperature of water takes 1 calorie for each one degree C, per gram. To change state from liquid to vapor it takes 598 calories. So the temperature of the water is nearly inconsequential. If water is say 30 C instead of 10 C, that is only 3% difference in energy flux, yet it is a huge difference in water temperature. I spent about 2 hours making those edits, it was a vast improvement over what is out there now. By deleting my corrections, you ruin the credibility of Wikipedia, and you miss-inform people. Downdraft engines are terribly ineffective, and uneconomical because they put hundreds of thousands of tons of water into the ambient every hour. The proponents don't tell you this because it ruins their claims. Pluvinergy does tell you that, because it is a sincere effort to make the concept valid. I did make the reference to Pluvinergy. It is the only source that deals with the concept at depth. Perhaps you could have simply requested better references. Would it be sufficient for me to put the math on the Wikipedia page, since it is not available anywhere else besides Pluvinergy? This is my first time editing so the question is not rhetorical in anyway.

Schechter on origin of language
I find this opinion very noteworthy because it adds a layer to the theory of language originating from ritual with no direct tangible cost or benefit, and hence with no inherent reliability. saying that language evolved in tandem with culture is vacuous because how and why did the culture evolve? I find the idea that it could originate from the need to share and compensate for the emotional condition of loss intriguing and fascinating; why should your opinion that it is not noteworthy trump mine?
