Edit war at Germany
Mozart was born in Salzburg, Austria; his only other home was Vienna. And he never said anything about being German or Austrian, but if he was born and lived all his life (excetping of course the concert tours) in Austria, it's a good bet he was Austrian. &mdash; $PЯING  rαgђ  14:52, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
 * You are wrong. : "I am an honest German"; "If Germany, my beloved fatherland, of whom you know I am proud, will not accept me, then must I, in the name of God, again make France or England richer by one capable German; — and to the shame of the German nation." Find me one quote by Mozart where he says he's Austrian. Lars T. 17:18, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Hans Filbinger
Please do not add incorrect tags to articles, as you did to the Hans Filbinger article (Tagged it as an autobiographic article and therefor possibly violating NPOV policy, however Filbinger is probably the last person to write his own biography on Wikipedia, especially since he is dead). It isn't funny nor clever. Thank you, Poeloq 23:59, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Warning
In regard to this edit of yours:

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Basedview22 13:31, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Please
I have reverted your last comment to Talk:Hans Filbinger because of the personal attack it contained. Please review WP:NPA before coming back. Note that repeating such behaviour will get you blocked. Thank you very much. Str1977 (smile back) 16:55, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

These remarks are completely inappropriate. The edit summary is for you to describe your edit, and the talk page is for civil discussion about the content of the article. Name calling has no place here, because it quickly becomes disruptive. Tom Harrison Talk 01:03, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/USS Watseka (YT-387) follow-up
Lars, you raised good points at Articles for deletion/USS Watseka (YT-387) which has now closed as "keep". I think it's worth having a more general discussion as to the notability of small noncombatant auxiliaries such as harbour tugs and I have raised this question at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/Maritime warfare task force. I'm inviting all the AfD participants, both pro and con, to join in with their thoughts on the topic. -- A. B. (talk) 17:08, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

CIA article
Lars, I am not trying to attack personally, and I am rather sure AJR is not attacking you as well. We both are concerned with balance in the CIA article, and to an American and a Briton with some direct exposure to the intelligence world, the article appears to suggest the Agency is principally a covert action organization, and the material under covert action often reads like a POV accusation.

I have changed the heading of "clandestine and covert activities" to "activities by geographic region", so that analysis,  intelligence community-wide estimates when CIA was responsible for them, and then clandestine and covert operations. Obviously, successful clandestine (as opposed to covert) activities are not known, but a number of clandestine intelligence collection things have been disclosed, often by informal US-Russian agreement that the topic is of historical value.

The article length is a problem. As you may see from my userpage, or the hierarchy that starts with Intelligence cycle management, the entire field of intelligence is complex, but lends itself to be broken up hierarchically. Geographic articles on activities would be one way to split out smaller articles (with much cross-linking), not forgetting that there will be a good deal of regional and trans-national (e.g., counterproliferation, drug trafficking, counterterrorism) activity.

I have contributed a fair bit of work to the article, both in editing references and flow, and adding sourced new material (e.g., Directorate of Intelligence, Caribbean/Cuba (mostly Missile Crisis), Korea (Korean War), and starting to put material under southeast Asia. Perhaps you will not be as annoyed as when someone who hadn't done many edits or articles was changing your work. It is my hope that the kind of sourcing and detail I put into my additions might be an counterexample to such things as "CIA trained police" or "CIA set up Operation Gladio" with no other context, or where a discussion of questionable activities doesn't pull together the consensus of multiple sources, instead essentially repeating a series of allegations.

Let's try to work together in good faith.Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 20:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Image use
Per image policy, each use of an image must have its own fair use rationale. In Image:WDR Dachmarke.PNG you removed the second rationale for the second article its used in. Unless your saying it shouldn't be used in the second article, in which case you also need to remove it from that article.  MBisanz  talk 08:58, 24 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Well it was about 3AM here when I got to that image and I saw that it still had a warning on it and only saw one Template:Logo fur and 2 file links so I assumed the uploader had messed up and came over here to WP:BITE you.  Now I see your using 2 different versions of rationaling.  I'm not familiar with Template:Logo rationale, but I know Template:Logo fur can be used multiple times for multiple uses of one image.  Image:FirstUnionLogo.png is a good example of an image.  Although as a reminder, once you correct an image, make sure to pull off the warning, or else it will still be deleted.

The Automobile-Image in the Economy section has been deleted. Could you consider to put it back. I have no account, that´s why I´m asking. I also think the recently introduced map (Lost territories) in the is not necessary and messes up the section German Empire (1871-1918). Thank you —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.179.3.195 (talk) 22:55, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for CIA contributions
I'm beginning to think the set of articles need to be tuned every six months or so. Believe me, I appreciate your sharp eye catching annoying things that got through.

The Farewell Dossier is part of a larger problem? opportunity? I should have thought of it, but it hadn't registered, even though I know the methodology, that you basically can't measure blast from space. There might be some very special circumstances where you could, but the reality is that earth-based sensors do most of the work.

If they were being figurative and saying there was a large fire that had the thermal effect of a 3KT blast, that is different. Thinking about the thermal sensors, someone might try to estimate blast by measuring the speed of expansion of the fireball, but that gets tricky in several ways.

So, you either found something where a reporter combined random facts incorrectly, or otherwise took liberties. You might or might not find it interesting, but I wrote a first draft of an essay, User:Hcberkowitz/Sandbox-FactsFromPOV, as part of discussion at Folantin's userspace. The discussion is trying to find ways to reduce POV and focus more on fact, and one of the challenges is how to get useful material when all available sources have POVs.

Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 16:21, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

The Farewell Dossier - or rather the Thomas C. Reed story of the CIA reaction
My problem isn't with Farewell Dossier, and I can easily believe the CIA reacted the way described - but the anecdote as told by Reed in his book, quoted by Safire and taken for a fact by just about any media outlet out there without any fact checking just seems to me like the prototype of an Urban Myth. And what really irks me about it is that I had to search hard to find a story that even doubted that it happened exactly like this. Everybody takes it as proof that the CIA is extremely clever or ruthless, but nobody asks for a second source. Well, I found one article where a KGB veteran said there was a small explosion at the pipeline, but it had nothing to do with any CIA action. And just now this article that calls the story a myth (but has no way to prove it either). Lars T. (talk) 17:33, 26 April 2008 (UTC)


 * This is one of those times that I wonder about better ways to handle WP:OR. Let us say, for example, that there is a news report that Putin is pregnant. Most news media would ignore it, and it's unlikely that anyone would write "Putin is a man and can't get pregnant".


 * In this case, while a basic knowledge of physics, and perhaps a more advanced knowledge of space-based sensors, would establish the event Urban Myth. An editor could cite sources saying that blast doesn't propagate in vacuum. The same editor could cite the alleged explosion and that it was supposed to have been observed from space. It wouldn't occur to a writer at, say, Aviation Week and Space Technology to point that out, because the readership would immediately see the disconnect.  Here, it might even be called WP:OR or WP:SYNTH if those data were simply listed in the article, and left to the reader to see the connection.


 * When I read the report, I realized I mentally tuned out the "from space", and assumed -- bad thing to do -- that the blast yield information came from the usual trusted sources, seismographs and microbarographs. Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 17:47, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:ARD-Dachmarke.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:ARD-Dachmarke.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:13, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Dates
Hello Lars, thank you for your courteous revert message. The Manual of Style says: "Careful consideration of the disadvantages and advantages of the autoformatting mechanism should be made before applying it: the mechanism does not work for the vast majority of readers, such as unregistered users and registered users who have not made a setting, and can affect readability and appearance if there are already numerous high-value links in the text." I often remove date links, based on the last sentence of the MOS. However, this is a pretty minor matter, and I don't propose to edit-war about it.

I'd like the Haider article to be one of those few articles on Wikipedia that don't suck. In addition to being accurate and NPOV, that means that it shouldn't contain redundant material.

incorrect "vandalism" revert
Your reversion here identified the removal of the refimprove tag as "vandalism". Even if it were incorrect, removing a two year old tag of this sort is a good faith error and not vandalism. And, in this case, it was entirely appropriate to remove it. Please remember WP:AGF and don't label things as vandalism which might be good faith attempts to improve an article. Tb (talk) 22:12, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Second opinion needed
Hi, I see that you have been doing some editing on List of countries by military expenditures and I would like your second opinion regarding a couple of reverts I did. In the past few days there has been a few edits by the same IP,, my main reasons for reverting those changes are simply because the source for the US disagrees with the 'official' US government publish budget. I also the IP does not seem whilling to use the talk page. Other values, such as China and so on, come from the same 'estimate'.

Contested changes
Hey there! You wanted to talk about the change to Medieval Warm period article. It was changed for consistency. Over at List of time periods you can ctrl+F "period" and see that every single one, except for one (Period of Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms the period is uncapitilized. One of them I had requested changed (Migration period) but other than that I only had to change this one.

"Period" shouldn't be capitilized as far as I can tell as it isn't part of the "title". Kind of how you wouldn't title an article "Harry Potter Characters", but instead "Harry Potter characters".

The "Warm" part.. however... I am unsure of. There is Early modern period to perhaps base off of, but I'm unsure if the "modern" is part of the title. If "Warm" is part of the title, like Potter is to Harry, then it should stay capitilized. If it isn't then de-cap it. I'll leave that up to you to either de-cap or keep warm as capitilized but I'm pretty sure, unless it's unique, that the period part should be in small-caps. Avalik (talk) 11:43, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Hope this is where I am supposed to reply... :) I have no idea what an RFC is, but I doubt I mind. And yes... I noticed most Age's and Era's were capitilized and maybe it would be best instead for all "periods" to be capitilized as well (I'd even considered that)... the majority of them were small caps though, so I just wanted consistency at least until the meantime. Perhaps at that RFC thingy you could also inquire about the inconsistency between era/age and period - ask if all the others should be capitilized as well? Avalik (talk) 13:12, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Alrighty. :)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. -- Eraserhead1 &lt;talk&gt; 00:31, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Crunch time?
I notice you've been keeping an eye on the article List of German cognates with English and your opinion on it would be useful.

I created this article over a year ago to get some of these massive unsourced and partially incorrect tables off the main German language article. In over a year since then not a single source has been added. The only contributor to the original lists and the new article is the IP editor in the 95.11?.*.* range, and these sorts of contributions from them    are painfully and obviously incorrect - there are doubtless many other errors in the text.

I believe that after over a year of decline, it's time to take this article to WP:AFD - would you agree? Knepflerle (talk) 11:08, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Back on your talk page so soon! Just to let you know thhat I noticed you'd interacted with this user previously at Hesse and that he'd blanked your greetings. Looking through his other contributions, he has made quite a few other page-moves and a lot of unjustified ß-purging from other articles. I've reverted the moves for now and asked him to go via WP:RM in future to present the evidence that the ß-less spelling is more common, but I think it's worth keeping an occasional eye on his contributions if he returns.

 * Also I must give you a gentle warning that removing FG's talkpage comment yourself was not a clever thing to do. I will leave it at that. Polargeo (talk) 08:52, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

Temperature scales
I'm curious as to why you changed the temperature scales on Heligoland from Celsius and Fahrenheit to Kelvin and Rankine. All other temperature measurements in the article are in Celsius &rarr; Fahrenheit, the original value was in Celsius, and you forgot convert it to Kelvin by adding 273 -- you only changed the units. --Gyrobo (talk) 22:12, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Translation of Kalisalz
You changed "potash salt" to just "potash":. I think I saw somewhere that the correct English term for Kalisalz is potash salt. I'm no expert in mining industry, so I don't really know. Are you sure your version is correct? How can we reliably resolve this dispute? Tropical wind (talk) 03:33, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Criticism of Apple Inc. neutrality
If you have an issue with the way any specific part of the article is written, please discuss it on the talk page.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article German occupation of Czechoslovakia, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Yopie (talk) 20:55, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on German occupation of Czechoslovakia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Yopie (talk) 00:02, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Germany
I have no doubt that the Treaty of Rome is of importance to the history of Germany, but that is a reason to discuss it, not a reason to slam a non-free image into the article. We have a very strict policy on the use of non-free content; it may only be used when it adds significantly to the article, not merely when the subject of the picture happens to be of significance to the subject of the article. I am not going to revert your edit, as it is possible that the picture is actually in the public domain, but please have some respect for our policies on non-free content in the future...

Hesse
Are you from the state of Hesse? The article needs a lot of attention. More references sre needed. The sections on culture, economy and politics needs to be expanded. Sections for education, sports and demographics are needed. Maybe a small photo gallery would look good too. A good place to start referencing is the state's official page.
