You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Philosophy. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Snowded  TALK 19:08, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
 * Mr. Snowded, first, you need to calm down. There is no editing war at all. You deleted my edit, I reversed it, you then gave a better explanation. Point was taken. I conceded. I then put new material from a third party source and cited it. There is no editing war. Please try to relax. --Shabidoo | Talk 19:22, 5 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Fully relaxed, but you are ignoring WP:BRD. You were bold, you were reverted, DISCUSS.  I opened a section on the talk page.  Now self-revert and take part in the talk page.   Snowded  TALK 19:25, 5 January 2013 (UTC)


 * FYI, you do need to respond to the content issue raised on the talk page. That says (i) Searle is not seeking in that article to articulate the scope of contemporary philosophy and (ii) its dubious if the section has value.  Try and address content issues rather than making personal comments about how you feel or about the motivations of other editors.  Its the way things work around here Snowded  TALK 20:21, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

RfC regarding inclusion of a subsection of Metaphilosophy in the article on Philosophy
An RfC concerning addition of a subsection to Philosophy can be found at this location. Please comment upon its inclusion and any modifications you think would help make it better. Brews ohare (talk) 20:40, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Thank you!
Thank you for your edit summary here.

As long as the related articles do indeed have the nonenglish names, I think you have a great point for this. I will be watching the article. Since the last time I edited the article there have been so many poor edits too it.Curb Chain (talk) 03:03, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of French IPA vowel chart with audio


The article French IPA vowel chart with audio has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * same as IPA vowel chart with audio but with non-French vowels removed, we don't need one of these for every language out there

While all constructive 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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Olympic results template spoilers
I noticed that you recently added results to Template:2014 Winter Olympics women's curling results‎‎. While I thank you for helping in the thankless task of keeping this information up-to-date, I would like to request that instead of writing them out as eg "china 7-4 usa" that you simply put "china vs usa" in the edit summary. This small change will keep spoilers from appearing on people's watchlist. Again, much thanks for you diligence and help. VanIsaacWS Vexcontribs 15:18, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes of course that makes sense. No problem. --Shabidoo | Talk 17:40, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

New version of the parliament diagram tool.
Hi Shabidoo,

I'm convinced I know your username, and I'm not sure why.

Anyway, at Wikimania, I ported my parliament diagram tool to Wikimedia's servers, fixed the bug that made the dots invisible above a certain number, and gave it a new, easier interface. Please let me know if it works for you - I need some testers. The source code is now also hosted on github, so you can either file bug reports directly there, or drop me a note on Wikipedia.

Thanks! --Slashme (talk) 23:22, 14 August 2014 (UTC)


 * I also edit on rationalwiki, uncyclopedia and a few other wikis. Also I've done several diagrams here. Maybe that's how you recognised me.
 * Very nice new tool. I have to say the colour tool is fabulous. I don't think I'll have time to make more but to help you out I made a malta diagram. [[File:Maltaparliament.svg]]
 * It worked quite well. Cheers --Shabidoo | Talk 18:27, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

Very funny
I find it very funny that when you were reverting a talk page edit here, you cited as your source WP:PTG and not WP:TPG, and yet no one called you on it. Very funny! --Obsidi (talk ) 19:10, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah...well...uhhh...that was ummm...a total mistake. Didn't mean for that to...uh...happen. How could I have been so...uh...careless. --Shabidoo | Talk 07:36, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm 117Avenue. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Cardston, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 117Avenue (talk) 02:15, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I am quite aware of editing policy and you know that. It's not the best idea to place form messages like this on the talk page of experienced users as it comes across as fairly passive aggressive. I didn't leave an edit summary because I've already done so several times and you've reverted me anyways for trivial reasons. I've gone through your history and your talk page and your talk page is utterly full of users who are struggling with your constant reverting of edits and in a few cases you cite irrelevant policy or an extremely broad interpretation of policies. This kind of reverting can be disruptive. On my part citing a source which shows the town has a ban on Alcohol sales and pointing out the article on prohibition of alcohol sales in Canada listing not even a dozen places in the country with alcohol sales ban (in a Country which has tens of thousands of cities, towns, villages and Hamlets) is more than sufficient grounds to claim "one of the few communities in Canada". It's so obvious I don't understand why you are harassing me about this line. In my several years on wikipedia I've never had someone revert me for something that is so clearly evident. Any Canadian who has lives in Canada outside the dozen places where Alcohol is banned would find it absurd to even question that alcohol prohibition is not rare in Canada. I find this kind of overzealous reverting practice pointless and disruptive. I appreciate wikipedians who care about the integrity of the information in articles and wikipedia's policy but in this case it is too much. Please leave the text the way it is. --Shabidoo | Talk 03:51, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
