Bayes' theorem
Hello Riitoken,


 * You may want to redesign that bar graph, as it has several problems, WP:MOS (manual of style) should be helpful.


 * It doesn't really fit in with the page, particularly on widescreen monitors
 * Its a GIF, so the colour dithering is horrible. That sort of diagram should be in Scalable vector graphic
 * Images are not normally just dropped right in the middle of the article, normally they are wrapped in a blahblah.svg format to enhance text readability.

Additionally, the graph does little to explain the concept of Bayes' theorem as it is discussed there, it only shows a fractional block of information User A1 (talk)

Hello A1,

Yep. I agree with your suggestions. I made the edit too guickly and while I was tired. The new .png is sharper and cleaner (and actually smaller in size) and no dithering. I removed the + signs seeing as they incorrectly suggest adding numbers in the table. I moved the chart after the table where it belongs. I don't think it needs a caption seeing as the table is really the caption --Riitoken (talk) 16:18, 22 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Thats good, but there is still the question of the motivation of having such a graph in there. Three editors have now independently removed the graph stating somethign along the lines of "the graph adds nothing", this is the primary concern. User A1 (talk) 17:17, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Yes and it is very possible for "3 editors to be wrong". Some people process spatially accurate visuals faster than tables of numbers. Both are useful tools. Let the bar graph be; it's fine and has value to those with a well developed aptitude for spatial information. --Riitoken (talk) 16:18, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Bayes' theorem. 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. Please discuss this on the talk page of the article and don't add it again unless there is agreement there. In general, you should never revert a revert without discussion on the talk page. Rick Block (talk) 21:54, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

The editors wrongfully claim that the bar chart does not contribute anything; but if that's true then the table of numbers it illustrates also contributes nothing (and should be removed as well). The bar chart merely provides a spatially accurate visual of the table of numbers; it's the same information in spatially visual form and that has value for readers that are more spatially oriented rather than algebraically oriented. --Riitoken (talk) 16:18, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

See the complaint at WP:AN3. You may add your own comment there if you wish. EdJohnston (talk) 18:37, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
 * See the result of the 3RR complaint at WP:AN3. Wikipedia is a group project, not a solo venture. You are expected to take an interest in the views of others before repeatedly making changes to articles that cause disagreement. Being reverted by three different editors should be a clue. Ignoring this warning could lead to a block without any further notice. EdJohnston (talk) 00:54, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

I give up ... my opinion is still that the other editors are defending matters of 'taste' only. Not one of them has described how or why the bar graph does not effectively spatially illustrate the table of numbers given in the example. Yes, Wikipedia is not a solo effort; but it does depend on the willingness of others to volunteer time and energy. This incident is a motivation killer. --Riitoken (talk) 18:25, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Math or statistics article on popular topics are not easy to get agreement on. Even if something is a matter of taste, we still have to be democratic. Otherwise, how should we decide whose taste to follow? EdJohnston (talk) 20:00, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Risk (clone)


The article Risk (clone) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Non notable at best. The time travel thing makes this a borderline hoax. No serious references anyway.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. andy (talk) 01:29, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I will edit the page as soon as I can. The time travel section isn't a hoax - it's a legitimate concept that illustrates the non-time sensitive nature of Idea copyright. I'll add references as soon as wiki stops acting up - we're getting a lot of failed pages here in Atlanta right now. --Riitoken (talk) 02:19, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Risk (clone). Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. andy (talk) 15:20, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Relax
Hey, you're kinda going crazy at the deletion discussion for Risk (clone). Suggesting that editors are employees of Hasbro is a bit over the line; you might want to delete the poll you added to the discussion. I'd also suggest calming down and letting the deletion discussion take its course. If the article is going to be deleted then it's going to be deleted, regardless of your extended rants (which are probably doing more harm than good to your cause). Snotty Wong  express 23:29, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Risk (clone). If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ''Confine yourself to the substance of the debate. Read the rules and follow them.'' andy (talk) 23:34, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
I've just stumbled across. It was uploaded by you, and you identify yourself in the summary as being Ray E. Bornert. Is this correct? andy (talk) 14:18, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Andy, there is no conflict of interest. Who are you? Are you a Wikipedia admin? Yes or No.  If you are an admin and you can prove it, then I'll answer your question straight up right now.  If you're not an admin then there needs to be some Quid Pro Quo on your part and you need to FIRST register an answer line in the Hasbro poll in the deletion debate.  If you're not an admin and/or you're not willing to go on record about any Hasbro relationship or lack thereof,  then you have zero business asking any personal questions, any more than I have any business asking you.  Quid Pro Quo dude. --Riitoken (talk) 14:41, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * What does it matter if anyone is an admin? How does that change anything?  And andy, you should probably refrain from digging through people's contributions for the purposes of outing them.  Riitoken, I can affirm that I have no affiliation with Hasbro whatsoever.  If you are the creator of Xisk, then you do have a conflict of interest and you should carefully read WP:COI before continuing.  Snotty Wong   chat 15:34, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It matters apparently in the case of deletion where there is an elevated level of authority to close a debate and delete an article which might be a work in progress. I obviously thinkthe article should remain so that others may help to bring it up to standards - including finding acceptable sources for the term Risk clone (I'm almost 100% positive there is one in 'Game' magazine but I can't find it). It matters man.  Also thank you for being honest about your COI hasbro interests.  Please make this same 'public' notation by answering the poll in the debate - for the record. --Riitoken (talk) 16:50, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Not a question of outing or even of digging. Rittoken: I was puzzled by the anon IP comment about Xisk on Talk:Risk (clone), by your proprietorial attitude to Risk (clone), and by the various related articles all of which centre round Ray Bornert. I suspected an unrevealed COI so I googled "Bornert riitoken" which yields exactly one hit. This isn't outing, especially since you yourself have stated publicly that you are Ray E. Bornert - it's a strong indicator that you have not been acting in good faith and this is relevant both to the AfD and in judging your future actions on wikipedia. andy (talk) 16:12, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Andy so isn't it interesting that you're using google as a reliable source? Again, I'll be more than happy to answer any COI questions you have just as soon as you go on record by answering the Hasbro poll in the debate page. Quid Pro Quo dude. --Riitoken (talk) 16:50, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * No one needs to reply to that poll. It's ridiculous and offensive to accuse veteran editors of being Hasbro plants. OhNo itsJamie Talk 17:13, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Riitoken: I'm not actually sure if it's worth replying to you, but I'll try to get the point across because it's at the centre of your problems with Risk (clone). Google is merely an index and not a reliable source. Google provides links to pages which may or may not be reliable sources. If they are reliable sources (according to some very well defined criteria which you can find here) then you can use them to support an article but if not, then not. You have not provided any such reliable sources for the article. That's one of the main reasons why it will be deleted, as will some related articles. If you write further articles on wikipedia and you don't provide reliable sources then they too will be deleted and your frustration with wikipedia will only increase. As for your conflict of interest, firstly I'm not writing an article about you so I don't need sources of such reliability, and secondly I simply make the assertion that there is a page on wikipedia where you have identified yourself as Ray Bornert, which is an unarguable fact. Anything that exists is a reliable source for the fact that it does exist, it just may not be a reliable source for anything else. andy (talk) 17:20, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Andy it's simple, I am opposed to the notion that an article cannot exist in a reasonable state while sources are being discovered (this is how Wikipedia grew into what it is now). I oppose the notion that all sources must be found before an article can be started.  Were this the case, Wikipedia would never have survived.  All readers recognize that Wikipedia is a work in progress and I maintain that this aspect is the central attraction.  It is the reason why I contribute.  I like seeing the 'please help this article be better' banners.  I detest the delete banners because they do not serve the orginal spirit of Wikipedia and they scare away willing contributors.  Nobody wants to waste time and energy on something that looks like it's going to get deleted.  This does not mean I do not support the higher principles of Wikipedia;  but we must keep in mind that they are idealic and something to strive for.  This is my first attempt;  I'm still learning.  I tend to write and contribute to things that interest me.  I am interested in the subject of Risk clones and have been for a long time.  But the resistance I'm getting just kills the original spirit of Wikipedia. --Riitoken (talk) 17:34, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * "I'm still learning": then why not learn from the experienced editors who have taken part in the AfD? We have all put forward clear explanations of the problems with the article and in particular reasons why it is unsalvageable and should be deleted rather than developed further. I don't propose to rehash these arguments - they're all there in the AfD, chapter and verse. andy (talk) 17:49, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Andy, learning does not imply that I'm wrong in all cases. I've learned a lot so far and I've made substantial changes to the article at the advice of those in the debate;  you have ZERO chance of changing my mind that this article can be fully encyclopediac.  But I don't have the Wikipedia authority to make sure the article lives long enough to prove my point do I? --Riitoken (talk) 18:04, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Riitoken, the AfD process gives you seven days to find some sources for the article. No one is requiring you to find all of the sources for the article before it is allowed to remain.  There are hundreds of thousands of articles out there that have no references.  All that has to be shown is that references exist (and that they are from reliable sources, and they cover the subject in a significant way).  When someone takes an article to AfD, they are essentially saying that "I don't think sources exist for this subject to satisfy WP:GNG."  If sources are found, the article is generally kept (even if those sources are not immediately added to the article).  If no sources are found, the article is generally deleted.  The process exists to determine the chances that a subject would ever pass WP:GNG even if an infinite amount of time was spent looking for sources.  If the chances are too low, then the article is deleted.  This is the way Wikipedia works, and that's not going to change no matter how much you disagree with it.  So, either you continue getting frustrated by that fact, or you accept it and work with it.  Snotty Wong   confabulate 18:25, 18 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Sigh, Gentleman (and/or ladies), I'm done arguing. I've spent too much time arguing what I believe and not enough working on my idea of what the article should be.  There is NO conflict of interest on my part.  I'll let the structure and wording of the actual article speak for me.  Debates get personal but the Article will be worthy of Wikipedia.  It is my first and I'm doing my best.  Any ACTUAL help on the article would be most appreciated rather than 'your article sucks' comments in the debate. I am passionate about everything I do;  that's how I am;  no changing that. --Riitoken (talk) 19:23, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Passionate ≠ obsessive. You'll naturally find reluctance from other editors when asking them to help you write an article which has almost no chance of not being deleted.  No one is trying to personally insult you or say that "your article sucks", we're just saying that the subject of the article doesn't pass the inclusion standards that have been chosen for Wikipedia articles.  The content that you've created may be more appropriate on a different wiki, in which case it is not a total loss and you can still post the information that you spent awhile creating in a prominent place on the internet.  Snotty Wong   spill the beans 20:10, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Well I'm moving forward anyway on good faith regardless. I believe in the article even if nobody else does.  And that counts.  Am I the only one who still believes in the original spirit of Wikipedia or has there been some fundamental policy change from the top?   I think my 2 questions at the bottom of the debate say it all.  They highlight the shortcomings of the present climate. --Riitoken (talk) 20:21, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Perhaps I'm not familiar with the "original spirit" since I've only been here since 2007. WP:GNG and WP:N were created in 2006, I don't know if the concept of notability was as important pre-2006 as it was now.  As the encyclopedia grows in size, the number of important topics left to write about begins to decline, and the number of articles on non-notable topics increases.  Notability standards are required to prevent WP from turning into a place where every company/person/entity in the world can create an article on themselves and include why they're great.  Wikipedia was never intended to be a directory of everything that exists or has ever existed (and WP:NOT has certainly been around since the beginning). Snotty Wong   confess 21:23, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I completely agree snotty, well said. I am probably just regretful that I never took the time to start an article back in the wild west days;  I always meant to;  I made a ton of edits to existing articles.  Nevertheless,  there are a few articles (maybe this is one) where you can still do it the old fashioned way - which was this: make a list of everything the article needs to discuss (i.e. outline) and get that into the db with the correct title and one starter sentence and one ref. or external link that indicates some potential of substance.  And then others would add things and make it better and nobody complained that articles were in progress or not fully documented as long as there was honest effort and no apparent lies, defacing, spam, etc.  But, I can tell you that the spirit of Wikipedia has definitely changed and that's sad to me.  The entire point was to get as many ppl working on as many articles as possble even if they were not finished.  If the mindset seen in the Risk clone debate had been present at the beginning of Wikipedia, it would have killed Wikipedia in the womb. --Riitoken (talk) 21:37, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * One thing that has never changed is that Wikipedia is not original research. Without reliable sources to back up the information in the article, it is basically your own original research gained from your experience of creating a Risk clone.  Like I said, it is good information, but probably doesn't belong on this particular Wikipedia.  Other wikis have been created for that purpose, as stated earlier.  Snotty Wong   talk 22:31, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Snotty, I agree in spirit but in practice it is physically impossible to not add anything new - were that the case all encyclopedia articles would be nothing but a title and a list of hard references and the reader would then just read the references (this is a slippery slope similar to the first causes paradoxes - i.e. all the references would just be a title and a list of more references and so on and the entire world would be a list of titles). Anybody, everybody that pulls references together and synthesizes a writtent work is adding something new.  And furthermore, those who compose original articles are almost always knowledgable in that field - otherwise how do they judge the overall truth and neutrality of both the article and the references (not all references are worthy it takes experience to judge this).  I might know a little about Egypt but it would be insane for me to have presumed to author the original Egypt article.  Those who start articles SHOULD know something about the subject.  I would rather see a ww2 nazi and holocaust jew author the article on Hitler, as opposed to any two people born after 1980.  I have experience with Risk clones - as player and maker and critic.  I am qualified to synthesize information that already exists or is apparently, verifiably, repeatedly true by observation.  Repeatable, observable truth is it's own scientific reference point. --Riitoken (talk) 22:48, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, you're in a majority of one on this. People who are interested and knowledgeable should write articles but they must be prepared to prove the truth of what they say. People like you who have a massive conflict of interest should walk away, but in any case the same rules for reliable sources apply and you seem to be unable or unwilling to reach this minimal standard. You should take your article elsewhere - it's not for wikipedia. andy (talk)
 * I agree that people who are familiar with the topic of an article are better suited for writing the article, but only to the extent that it's easier for them to pull the information together. Someone who is unfamiliar with the topic can write an equally good article, but it will take them more time and effort and research.  Also, people who are strongly connected to the topic of an article may have preconceived attitudes about it or emotions connected to it which hinder their ability to present the material with a neutral point of view.  The concepts of original research and synthesis absolutely do lie on a spectrum (although I wouldn't say it's a slippery slope), but the point on the spectrum at which they lie is clearly defined, so we're not in danger of slipping into a world where WP articles consist of a title and sources.  Everything is based on the sources that you use for the article.  Original research is defined (for the purposes of Wikipedia) as "material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and stories—not already published by reliable sources. It also refers to any analysis or synthesis of published material to advance a position not advanced by or detailed within the sources."  The definition doesn't prevent you from presenting a fact or concept in your own words, but the overall meaning of the concept or fact must have been previously published by a reliable source.  Correspondingly, synthesis is defined (for the purposes of Wikipedia) as "combining material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources. If one reliable source says A, and another reliable source says B, do not join A and B together to imply a conclusion C that is not mentioned by either of the sources."  If you read the policy pages on Wikipedia, you'll see they're spelled out quite clearly.  Too clearly, in some cases.  They're carefully designed to prevent any unwanted loopholes, and they've been refined over the years to account for unforeseen loopholes.  And, the regulars here (and particularly at AfD) use them every day and are very familiar with them.  Snotty Wong   comment 01:56, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

I am simply trying to participate in the Wikipedia experience and learn the ropes.  I've got some spare time lately so I thought I'd hunt for sources for things I know well. --Riitoken (talk) 01:19, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Hey! you and me both man. I made an attempt at the Risk (clone) article as best I could.  I just wanted to help answer a few basic questions that a lot of young aspiring programmers have - i.e. "What is a Risk clone?" ... "Are they legal?" ... "How can I make one and not get sued by Hasbro?"  etc.  But really more than that I'd love to see some solid game theory strategy on the subject and some professional tournaments. --Riitoken (talk) 03:44, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

How to avoid COI edits
Wikipedia is "the encyclopedia that anyone can edit," but if you have a conflict of interest avoid, or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) Editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) Participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) Linking to the Wikipedia article, your own user subspace, or a website of your organization from other articles (see Spam);
 * and you must always:

Final warning
This is your only warning; if you insert a spam link to Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.

 * [[Image:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|alt=|link=]] STOP harrassing me!  We obviously disagree about what types of external links constitute spam.  I am NOT a spammer for disagreeing with you.  You've stalked pretty much every edit I've done for a week.  You've accused me of lying.  You've accused me of spam and non neutral pov.  You've accused me of using multiple accounts and opened an investigation against me.  How do I file a complaint against you? ... because for where I sit, you've definitely crossed the abusive line surrounding amins. --Riitoken (talk) 16:11, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The problem is, you are spamming... Read the guidelines. I know you don't like to do that, but just try please. You may have thought you were being cunning by slipping a reference to your own website in between two others at Three-dimensional chess but Ohnoitsjamie wasn't the only one who spotted that, he just got there first. Your continued presence on wikipedia is on a knife edge: almost every contribution you have made is intended to promote yourself, your products or your political views and your response to well intended advice and criticism is unconstructive, aggressive and abusive. Either play by the rules or go away. andy (talk) 17:29, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
