Disambiguation link notification for July 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited San Jose Earthquakes Stadium, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Edenvale (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The Vikings of Bjornstad
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of The Vikings of Bjornstad, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.vikingsofbjornstad.com/Main.htm.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 23:55, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of The Vikings of Bjornstad


A tag has been placed on The Vikings of Bjornstad requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.vikingsofbjornstad.com/Main.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

The Vikings of Bjornstad
Hello, I have removed the speedy delete tag I placed on the Vikings of Bjornstad, but please be aware that copying copyrighted content from another website is against Wikipedia's policies. Also, your article may be deleted for another reason: it probably does not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Liam987 (talk)  00:20, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". ''Marking new messages as minor edits is probably not a good idea. (People can see it either way, but still... it's just not quite right.)'' — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 17:16, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

references and footnotes
Hello, with regard to formatting, you can find help at WP:REFB

However the footnotes must be to reliably published sources with a reputation for editorial oversight and not self published blogs. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  21:40, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Mahishasura
I suggest you carefully read through the article and see what I mean about Mahishi. I am having a hard time finding information that can corroborate Mahishi being his mother, yet the article's introduction mentions Mahishi as his mother. Later, Mahishi is described as the sister. If you have a better idea or have a good source, please double check which one is accurate and make corrections accordingly throughout the article. This may require some major cleanup to the article. --NJ (talk) 00:41, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

OR tagging of cold shock response
Hi Kortoso, you recently tagged Cold shock response as possibly containing original research without specifying what part of the content you consider may be OR. As each section has what on the surface appears to be a reasonable source, would you please be more specific so that the problem can be addressed. Please either tag the specific statements in the text or discuss on the talk page. &bull; &bull; &bull; Peter (Southwood) (talk): 05:34, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

THAAD
Are you aware that China & Russia have moved all of their mobile ICBMs 400Km from their resepective borders. www.armscontrolwonk.com The name change from 'Theatre' to 'Terminal' kind of gave the game away that they can get them coming or going. The THAAD ED will, no doubt, be able to take out ICBM (the reach up to 14000Km up) in the bus stage. Engines have stopped, inertia now means their direction is just that described by a paraboloa. The reason for that is that to hit them before they split into MIRVs. It's being played down but it gives the US a massive advantage, especially the Hypersonic Technology Vehicles. Fit THAAD-ED to the HTV and suddenly, all fixed-site ICBMs will become redundant and a submarine might launch 1 missile before it is destroyed (if you can put an atom bomb into a 155mm shell, a missile that lands roughly near the detonation will be crushed. Both Russia and China are working together to find a solution to THAAD which shows how far behind they are and how much it could affect the balance of power. It will certainly make every Eastern European country wanting to join NATO. I'm English and we spend 5% of out budget on NATO but if I'm honest, I don't think that the US could afford the number of aircraft & missiles to defend the UK. The important thing is, it looks like once those hypersonic 'bombers' are produced, it could mean that the US could win a nuclear war, i.e. the nation-state survives. Because of the innacuracy of Chinese ICBMs, they are introducing MRVs' i.e. multiple warheads all aimed at the same target. Thats a HUGE outlay and we can learn from what they do, what we can do. Those MRVs, BTW, will be copies of the W-87 & W-88 US warheads. It then means that they will be sub-megatonne. This is just my opinion, but I think Russia & China have been faster to build potent digital attack vectors. The items for Windows is obviously the bottom-end of the spectrum BUT we do need to do better. I was an assembly-language programmer for 20 years and with the ARM M0+ having just being released, I'm hoping that assembly language will be back... well, I can only hope. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.99.74.135 (talk) 10:55, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
 * On its BEST day, the system is only about 46% effective (and that means in a real shooting war it would be virtually useless) ... only a small fraction of the world's nuclear weapons need to detonate to bring the whole show to an end as humans have known it. 50.111.50.200 (talk) 12:51, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Parang (knife). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Your edits appears to be non-constructive and it does not reflect the edit summary that you've described. -Jeblat (talk) 07:01, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
 * What is a "Jeblat"? Before you start accusing people of vandalism, I suggest creating a user page.
 * Jeblat, regarding my OR edit on parang (knife), I was asking a constructive question regarding whether the article's conclusions were derived from the quoted source. How can that be construed to be vandalism? Please explain. I am here to help improve Wikipedia.

07:20, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Firstly, I do not think asking what my username is in anyway relevant to the subject at hand. I don't think it is compulsory to have a user page, neither do you have one yourself. Secondly, if you intend to question the source, you can always place a citation tag, instead of "OR". If you intend to discuss contents within the article, you may do so in the article's Talk page. Putting "OR" as a form of questioning the "rationale in the source" is not the standard in Wikipedia. The link to "OR" itself does not bear any connection to your concern of the "rationale in the source". Thirdly, you may spend some time in Help:Contents to help you improve Wikipedia. -Jeblat (talk) 10:38, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

visiting pulsars - or any star, for that matter
There won't be any 'starships' or anything of that sort - SOL is a barrier that technology cannot achieve, due to relativistic physical laws; a pulsar or magnetar (let alone a plain ol' neutron star) would be extremely hazardous to "visit" in any case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.111.50.200 (talk) 12:53, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
