Uncontroversial moves
In regards to your multiple move requests of 5 September: You should consider executing these without discussion per WP:BEBOLD. They're not controversial. Any that require an admin to move can be posted at WP:RM: Uncontroversial requests, I have also posted a note there as well. —  AjaxSmack  20:28, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Closing Talk:Halley's Comet
There is ample precedent (it’s done all the time) about closing an RfC after the nominator withdraws his or her motion. There was nothing “presumptuous” (your ∆ edit here) about putting a close tag on it. Or is there some other tag that closes it and doesn’t “archive” it? I just copied that tag from ANI. Greg L (talk) 21:25, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

P.S. Reading the previous post here on this page, where someone commented about your “multiple move requests” in one single day, I suggest you take a time out with re-openning an archived move discussion after the nominating editor withdrew his motion. Your doing so betrays an affinity towards wikidrama and was borderline disruptive. Greg L (talk) 21:42, 5 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I missed the fact that the nominator had withdrawn the proposal. My apologies. Definitely not interested in drama - just trying to clean up. Note that the editor is encouraging me to make the page moves. Joja  lozzo  22:01, 5 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Oops. Now it’s my turn to apologize. I assumed you knew the nom withdrew. Very well. Happy editing. Greg L (talk) 22:08, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Nothing to apologize for. I think the archive was a good idea to prevent further time waste there. I will replace the tag (and add the bottom tag so it doesn't close off any sections added after). Joja  lozzo  22:35, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Ack! Whiplash! Joja lozzo  23:03, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Carcharoth’s gonna go down swinging. ;-) He can have the last word. Thanks for closing it; that discussion’s life needed to find peace and tranquility in its closing hours. Greg L (talk) 23:20, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Downcasing job-names
Hi, I saw your name at the WP:MOVE page in relation to requests to downcase "King" and the like, as generics. I'm interested in your feedback about my arguments here, preferably not on the page itself, since I'm not canvassing for !votes. It's a vexed issue more generally. Tony  (talk)  03:56, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

I think the guidelines on job titles are clear: capitalize a job title, military rank, government title, etc. only if the title is followed by a person's name: "Toilet Cleaner Joja Lozzo is a fixture in Paddington Station. She has held the post of toilet cleaner for thirty years." Joja lozzo  04:16, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks! And I'll get this news out to toilet cleaners the world over. Tony   (talk)  04:18, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Chief Mechanical Engineer
Hi Jojalozzo. That is, I regret, an valid interpretation of my edit summary but despite the words used it was not intended to apply to you. I'm sorry for being so inaccurate in my edit summary.

However, to return to your comments on my talkpage I do believe that WP:Point making is occurring in respect of the article and comments boarding on incivility are present on the article's talkpage, but I'm happy to confirm not by you. The article has its faults and I can see them as well as anyone else; and quite frankly parts of the article's talkpage is a masterclass in pointmaking.

However, I don't agree with your comment about "unambiguous policy". What the guide lines state is: "Offices, positions, and job titles such as president, king, emperor, pope, bishop, abbot, executive director are common nouns and therefore start with a capital letter only when followed by a person's name, in other words when they have become part of the name: "President Nixon", not "president Nixon". When used generically, they should be in lower case: "Mitterrand was the French president" or "There were many presidents at the meeting." The correct formal name of an office can be treated as a proper noun, so it is correct to write "Louis XVI was the French king" or "Louis XVI was King of France". Exceptions may apply for specific offices. In the case of a compound word such as "prime minister" or "chief executive officer", either all parts begin with a capital letter or none (except at the beginning of a sentence). Capitalize styles of nobility: "Her Majesty" or "His Highness"." Of relevance is: "In the case of a compound word such as "prime minister" or "chief executive officer", either all parts begin with a capital letter or none (except at the beginning of a sentence).", so when used as a compound word, Chief Mechanical Engineer and chief mechanical engineer are both permissible, unless they occur at the beginning of a sentence. Pyrotec (talk) 23:55, 8 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I am relieved to hear we are still friends. I agree completely about the talk page discussion and the OWN and POINT there. It is hard to work things out reasonably when some are not being reasonable.


 * I don't like your "compound word" approach to this issue. I'd much rather see you take the "formal name of an office" approach. I think the compound word bit (though poorly written since there are these two interpretations) is only saying that when a title is compound you must apply the forgoing rules of capitalization the same to all the words - it doesn't say there are special rules for compound titles and that they can be whatever you want as long as they are applied the same to all the words.


 * However, I think you could make a case for Chief Mechanical Engineer and Locomotive Superintendent being the "formal names of an office" and I think this notion is partly what fuels the resistance to applying the job title policy. I would argue that such offices must include the actual railway name, the same way king by itself is just a title but King of France is the name of an office. I started an RfC on the talk page. See you there. :-) Joja  lozzo  00:21, 9 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi Jojalozzo, Thanks for your good advice. I like the "formal name of office" idea. I've down cased most of the CME/LS/RIO/REIs within the article, hopefully things will quieten down now. I'm not going to be active on wikipedia for most of the rest of September. When I return in October I want to added potted biographies of some of the good/bad/mad LSs and CMEs; what a CME does and some of his "boys toys". That will be the time for the "formal name of office" approach as I will have specific named individuals, named railway companies and specified time-frame. I think that there well be another battle over down casing the article, perhaps it will happen in September, in which case I will miss it. Its rather funny in that I had no real interest in the article until the renaming debarcle started, I mostly do WP:GAN reviews. Now I'm inclined to bring it up to GA-status.

 * Nice work. I've got your back. Joja  lozzo  18:34, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Re paraphrasing
Hi, regarding a comment you left on an IP's talk page: it's a common error to believe that paraphrasing copyrighted material is enough to solve a copyvio problem. It isn't. As long as the final wording is derived from the original wording, it is a copyright violation -- obscuring the relationship doesn't fix that. The correct advice is to put the information in the editor's own words. Kind of a pedantic point I know, but I think we need to be clear on this. Regards, Looie496 (talk) 21:31, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Removing caps from job titles
Hi Jojalozzo, I've undone some of your edits to remove caps everywhere from job titles. Per WP:Job titles, "correct formal name of an office can be treated as a proper noun". Writing "The commissioner of police of the metropolis", "the minister for home affairs", "the governor-general" etc looks wrong, and Google results for these terms are virtually always in caps. XLerate (talk) 00:11, 22 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I am not always sure which is the "formal name of an office" (proper noun) and which is a job title (common noun). My apologies if I made a mistake but the article text didn't seem to be talking about the names of an office. If an article is talking about a job then it's a job title - there aren't a lot of articles about offices. Google results don't mean much to me since Wikipedia style is clearly not the same as the police/military style. On Wikipedia rank is always lower case. Joja  lozzo  00:32, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis, for example, is clearly the formal name of the office. Contrary to what you say, there are plenty of articles about offices. May I suggest you take a step back and actually check what you're moving before you do it. May I also suggest that you don't change text as you did in Police ranks of the United Kingdom to what you think looks right without checking first - it wasn't. -- Necrothesp (talk) 00:54, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism
I'm leaving this message for you, OberRanks, and Shem1805 to advise you to cease and desist the page move vandlaism - by which I mean the unauthorized moving of the page General of the Armies without filing for a move request. The point of move requests is to avoid this exact situation - a wheel war of page moving spawned by one editor's refusal to formal request a page move to allow others to contribute to a consensus to that move. While I appreciate the fact that your all trying to be technically correct its creating problems for the rest of us, therefore I've move protected the page until such time as a move request gets filed so we can determine conclusively which camp will walk away with the consensus of the editors. TomStar81 (Talk) 22:08, 23 October 2011 (UTC)


 * My mistake for not noticing the page title was disputed. No intention of violating process. Sorry. Joja  lozzo  22:12, 23 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Apology accepted. I replied to post made by under the same article header, the info there explains where exactly you messed up, and offers an explanation for the message I left here. TomStar81 (Talk) 22:30, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

Move General of the armies
Jojalozzo, I'm curious why you'd move General of the Armies to General of the armies when the subject of the capitalisation is currently the subject of considerable debate at Talk:General of the armies. Shem (talk) 21:57, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually I'm also curious how you managed to do it. Perhaps you could comment at Talk:General of the armies on why, and at my talkpage on how! Shem (talk) 22:03, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I just did it, regular move page op per WP:MilTerms, common name, job title. Had no idea it was disputed - appears to be an official name of an office. I see someone's put it back already.  Joja  lozzo  22:10, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't think it was possible to move an article to a page name that was already used. I have no idea how it was possible for you to do that. Shem (talk) 22:20, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I've seen the same thing. It won't let me make a move "over redirect" but someone else with similar privileges comes along and it works for them. This is the first time it's happened to me (and I didn't know it was happening). Baffling. Joja  lozzo  22:24, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

RE: Controversy
Hello, I would like to know why you keep adding controversy back to the National Agents Alliance wiki page. I have done extensive research on this subject and I have not found one instance of the FTC even looking into National Agents Alliance's practices and standards. I would like to remove this part again because there is zero evidence or citation to back the two claims regarding National Agents Alliance. I've looked all over their sites and all over the Internet and can't find anything to support those two statements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ErnieHemingway (talk • contribs) 20:36, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * One reason is that the person who created the article was initially responsible for that content and I am giving them time to provide the references. Another reason is that the creator appears to be pro NAA so I considered that content to be an attempt to offset the promotional tone of the rest of the article as it initially rolled out. A third reason is that those who have removed the content have left no edit summaries so the edits appear to be coming from pro-NAA bias rather than application of policy.


 * Like you I have also been unable to find any FTC claims against the company but the originating editor may have some knowledge that's not accessible through free channels on the web. There's plenty of complaints about the company on the web but none of it rises to a reliable level. If nothing shows up in the next couple of weeks, we can remove that material.

Caps: perhaps I've got it all wrong
Hi Joja, we went through the telecom resistance to downcasing in items such as named protocols. Well, OK, although I'm not entirely happy with that. We hav established that laws, theories, theorems, principles, rules, should be downcased. Am I wrong to assume that named indexes should be downcased? Many are already downcased on WP and in the open literature. I'd appreciate your advice on the arguments for and against in this respect. Tony  (talk)  07:01, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Silent River Film Festival


A tag has been placed on Silent River Film Festival requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you can assert the importance of the subject,. Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit |the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. Yworo (talk) 03:25, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

January 2012
Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Silent River Film Festival. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. You compared these additions to 2011 Sundance Film Festival. All the lists in that article have sources. Thank you. Yworo (talk) 14:42, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You're so quick on the trigger with this article that I wasn't able to add sources (they exist!) before you deleted the content. Since you appear to be unwilling to locate or supply sources yourself, I suggest you back off for a bit while others work on this. I find it especially unseemly when proponents of speedy deletion remove content during discussion. Last, I suggest you use the article talk page for these discussions. Joja  lozzo  15:01, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I didn't remove any content until the speedy had been declined. Watch your accusations and don't make them until you have made sure they are true, I searched for sources on Google News, there was only one, and it was already used in the article. Yworo (talk) 15:22, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
 * My apologies. I didn't see that bit of timing. Though I still question deletion of content while proposing deletion of the article unless you felt it might give the article a better chance to survive the proposal. In any case, I agree that the list of all entries was not so useful and is better replaced with the list of awardees, so it's all moot now. Joja  lozzo  16:22, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Caps or no caps
I think overall capitalization makes but a trivial difference to encyclopedic content, but items such as Last Supper are generally caps. I think you should ask on talk pages before running a rename lawnmower all over the place. You seem to be renaming many many pages at will. This is overdosing on lower cases now. History2007 (talk) 18:07, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I think capitalization confers meaning and when it's applied inconsistently then meaning is confused. Last supper is down=cased per WP:DOCTCAPS (by my interpretation). I hear you on the lawnmower analogy. Sometimes it's hard to hold back. Joja  lozzo  18:18, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Yes indeed, you don't seem to have consensus there, & I will apply to have your premature renames reversed; they should have been discussed at each page first. You are misinterpreting the policy, which indeed could be clearer. Johnbod (talk) 02:07, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
 * An RfC should stay active for a few days before consensus can be determined. Please see Requests for comment. Joja  lozzo  02:10, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It can stay "open" as long as you like, but you should not be making changes based on the reverse of the way it is clearly going in the meantime. Jesus at Herod's court is ok I think, but the others may not be. The Last Supper is very clearly a proper noun phrase, just like Gunpowder Plot. Johnbod (talk) 02:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello Mr Jolallozzo, I still believe you have a neutral point of view, and i accept your judgment, please have a look at the recent edits of Ian , you can see his motives. he has completely deleted the whole language sections from the criticism section. and also deleted the whole quality of the source section and making it irreversible.

Anti-psych books
Hi, I’ve been trying to add some useful "See also" links to several anti-psychiatry books (such as Madness and Civilization, Mad in America, Liberation by Oppression, and We've Had a Hundred Years of Psychotherapy – And the World's Getting Worse) but have been thwarted by User:Polisher of Cobwebs. I’ve tried to discuss the matter on his Talk page to no avail. He also seems to be doing some rather harsh editing of these articles. Would be grateful if you could look the situation over please... thanks Johnfos (talk) 04:03, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I see there was some discussion with you on his talk page and many of his edits appear to be helpful. As I see it, we have a strong-willed colleague, at worst an uncooperative ally, certainly not an opponent. In such situations I tend to roll with it.
 * If we create a List of anti-psychiatry books page then we can "see also" that instead of individual books. See List of books for examples of book list pages. If there aren't enough books to merit a separate page, we could add the books to Anti-psychiatry with a redirect from List of anti-psychiatry books, (similar to Risk and List of books about risk).  Joja  lozzo  15:31, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not against a List, but there are only nine books in Category:Anti-psychiatry books, and I would have thought adding specific book suggestions to articles might have been more helpful to readers. Johnfos (talk) 20:40, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I think that if a book or other source is relevant then it can usually be used as a reference and not be included in see-also or external-links. It also can be legitimately added to a bibliography section or "Further reading". For a source that is only tangentially relevant, I think adding it to a List and adding the List to "See also" makes the more sense than adding it to "See also". Does it make sense to add the books in Category:Anti-psychiatry books to Anti-psychiatry, create a redirect (List of anti-psychiatry books) to it, and add a link to the List to "See also" where we think it appropriate? Joja  lozzo  01:53, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I really would be happy for you to proceed as you see fit, but I would not like to lose any of the individual links already put in place in the various book articles. It took me some time to select these individual links and I feel they are very relevant and need to stay in place, either as "See also" or "Further reading" links.

Arbitration/Requests/Case/Article titles and capitalisation closed
An arbitration case regarding article titles and capitalisation has now closed and the final decision is viewable at the link above. The following remedies have been enacted:
 * 1) All parties are reminded to avoid personalizing disputes concerning the Manual of Style, the article titles policy ('WP:TITLE'), and similar policy and guideline pages, and to work collegiately towards a workable consensus. In particular, a rapid cycle of editing these pages to reflect one's viewpoint, then discussing the changes is disruptive and should be avoided. Instead, parties are encouraged to establish consensus on the talk page first, and then make the changes.
 * 2) Pmanderson is indefinitely prohibited from engaging in discussions and edits relating to the Manual of Style or policy about article titles.
 * 3) Standard discretionary sanctions are authorized for all pages related to the English Wikipedia Manual of Style and article titles policy, broadly construed.
 * 4) Born2cycle is warned that his contributions to discussion must reflect a better receptiveness to compromise and a higher tolerance for the views of other editors.

Hey...
I have a favor to ask...

Please keep a look out for medium-sized or larger articles with normal article titles, but that are in fact structured topic lists (outlines). And large articles with a inappropriately large proportion of structured list content.

I've run into several articles that have fit these descriptions, and have cleaned up the mess by porting the material to the outline department. There they get refined into stand-alone outline articles and added to the master list of outlines, or integrated into existing outlines. And of course I add a link to the outline in the appropriate See also sections so that readers to not lose access to the material.

Renaming or splitting such articles frees up article space for article-worthy prose contributions. Editors tend to build upon what is already there, making lists larger, even when they are on article pages.

If you run across any, please let me know.

Thank you, The Transhumanist 03:32, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

You wrote: "Ambiguity on this page concerns the ability to distinguish article topics from one another.".

I know you reverted based on what you believed was improper process, but do you realize that the changes you reverted simply clarified that "Ambiguity on this page concerns the ability to distinguish article topics from one another"? I mean, it's a change in wording for clarity, not in intended meaning. I presume you agree that not every change to policy requires discussion first - that, for example, an obvious typo fix does not require discussion. If so, then we only disagree on whether wording that doesn't change intended meaning is more like a typo that doesn't require discussion first, or more like a substantive change to policy that changes meaning and we all agree requires discussion first. --Born2cycle (talk) 19:01, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

Acting Edit for External link
Hi Joja. I thought relevance to the subject counted when updating an article, particularly with external links. The link added was for http://www.actorsandcrew.com, which has a very high relevance to the subject:

http://wefollow.com/twitter/Acting - where it's listed as the #1 most relevant thing in the world to the subject.

or

http://klout.com/#/topic/acting

Where it's measured as the number one most relevant thing to the subject across *all* social networks.

So, not sure how adding that link in is categorized as 'spam'. What gives? TIA for the explanation.

Wikipedia Motivations Survey
Hi Jojalozzo,

Thank you for your feedback on my post in the Village Pump about my senior thesis. I am more than happy to provide Wikipedians with a link to my paper when it is completed and already intended to do so. Now, my posting reflects that. I also checked my survey to ensure that all of the buttons were working correctly; there is only question that should allow you to select more than one answer.

Thank you again! If you have any suggestions for recruiting additional participants, I'd be very grateful.

Recent edits at variable frequency drives
The deletions have been rolled back by some other users allready, I am a good faith editor, the mere sense was to notify that innovation are done by private companies now compared 50 years before , so if you need new technology for the public or wiki. we need the information from manuals of companies!!! there is no escape.. , you had deleted my references of ABB and zvei, and kimo manuals for many of my articles, which are still standing wrongly refered to content of books where they do not even exist!!! , so its no one else, you have to decide on one thing weather to include product manuals or not. scary part also variable frequency drive has product catalogues too!! form ABB which i myself do not recommend but sure matches the reference information. so let me know your final take or direct me to some rule or standard page i can read the rules about.

 * Technical information from manufacturers (primary sources) should be okay as long as it doesn't come with promotional content also since advertising compromises the reliability of the source. I suggest you ask very politely and simply on the talk page about what is and is not considered reliable for that page. Joja  lozzo  01:44, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Two or three sentences about thier own company is totally unavoidable, as you have to know that it is again a company information , so you may find sentences like ,the solution for this problem is our product, in all  manuals. will you term this as advertisement ? , you either have to weigh out the value of the information for two or three sentences like that, which i beleive people who are fairly educated to read the article are themselves aware of these things. right ?

 * I disagree that the site is relevant. It's about actors and crew members and has little if any encyclopedic content on acting. It has some blogs about acting but blogs are not considered reliable sources. The addition of links to the site might drive users to the site but will do little to improve Wikipedia articles on acting. Probably the only place where such a link would be useful would be on the page about the site. Joja  lozzo  13:31, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
