SKA
Hello, I'm Sophus Bie. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to SKA Saint Petersburg because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Sophus Bie (talk) 19:42, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Invasive arguta follow up
Hi Sophus Bie, thanks for your replies on this subject. Regarding what you wrote:

"If calling the plant "invasive" is not at all statistically supported, you can delete the section. Removing content is easily reversed, so if anyone disagrees, they can undo your removal."

This is exactly the situation we're in. Removing, re-posting, removing, re-posting. Is there no other way to resolve these contentions? Thank you. Iagohale (talk) 21:45, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Human rights violations during the Syrian civil war
One-sided Claims Of Human Rights Violations Against The Syrian Government

I have just added some reasonable comments (and corrections) to counter the over-the-top and one-sided text in the "Human rights violations during the Syrian civil war" section. And within seconds my comments were deleted - "wow"! I pointed out that the one links lead to something called the "Women’s Media Center" and not as stated to Amnesty International. Also, some of the incidents reported were "undated allegations, labeled unverified, from a Palestinian news outlet". Given this, on what grounds were my adjustments removed? 78.147.85.14 (talk) 13:50, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

OK, having lost track of time, your banning did seem to take seconds. That said, I do not just "believe" the article was biased - it is biased. So, while it might leave a VERY short article, are you really saying that one-sided text can be deleted? 78.147.85.14 (talk) 16:43, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

hey
I was in middle of working on it. and you delete it? i save alot during editing incase computer crashes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.166.181.247 (talk) 13:53, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

Human rights violations during the Syrian civil war (follow up remark)
I do not just "believe" the article was biased - it is biased. So much so that it reads like a US State Department PR statement. Yet it appears that making counter-balancing edits is not allowed? 78.147.88.158 (talk) 12:58, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for welcoming me. I am considering creating an account on Wikipedia, as you suggested. If I did so, would there be any way to “claim” my IP edits? (i.e., make it so that they are attributed under the new name in Edit History). I would also like you to take a look at this article: Comparison of CRT, LCD, Plasma, and OLED. I think it should look more like this: (lines starting with a capital letter and ending with a period, for proper grammar, thus making it easier to see where each comment begins/ends within a cell on the table). However, 174.118.142.187 (who recently created the table) thinks otherwise; since I really don't want to cause an edit-war on the issue, I thought I would get the opinion of an established Wikipedia editor. If it makes any difference, Comparison of graphics file formats is an example of what I'd like to do with the page (color coded, thin table, but also using proper grammar, particularly in the “application” column). —76.6.164.233 (talk) 13:26, 8 April 2013 (UTC)


 * You're welcome! Sadly, there is not a way to transfer user contributions between accounts, but you can put this userbox

on your userpage to let people know those edits were yours, by typing. That's what I did for my pre-account edits, until my IP address changed when I moved. If you do decide to stick around, some good places for getting quick answers to questions are WP:Teahouse and WP:Help Desk. I also noticed that you've been doing copyediting, so you might enjoy joining the WP:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors. If you do decide to get an account, send me a message so that I can connect the name with the number!
 * I agree with you that capitalization on each line and periods looks better, and I like the formatting in Comparison of graphics file formats better as well, but Manual_of_Style/Tables disagrees with us both. (Oh well.)    Sophus Bie  (talk) 09:27, 9 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I have finally created an account on Wikipedia — I thought I would let you know. Also, 174.118.142.187 and I have reached a level of agreement on the Comparison of CRT, LCD, Plasma, and OLED page, and the new table is filling out nicely.

Thanks
for your reversion on my talk page. However, I've reverted your reversion. It was his own post he removed, and he's a young editor that I'm trying (with difficulty) to get onto the straight and narrow. I think he was probably embarrassed about that post, and I don't blame him... It would disappear into the archive soon anyway, but he wouldn't know that. Peridon (talk) 11:25, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

Butoh edit
Hi,

I'm new to wikipedia editing and just wanted to add the information on Ken Mai's contribution to a recent music video to the article about butoh.

It was not meant to be advetising, but if the link to the actual video makes it that then feel free to edit it out. Anyhow, I am not a bot. If this okay, can you please undo the edit you did?

Best wishes,

Denny Fitch
I'm sorry you feel hurt. I was looking at it from Mrs Fitch's point of view. She had not edited the article, or apparently thought of doing so, and she came to the Help desk asking for help. You suggested she might fix it herself, and then gave her five lines of daunting restrictions on doing so. I did not think that was very friendly or helpful, and said so, to her. I do't bear you any ill-will, and I hope you don't me. --ColinFine (talk) 09:04, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 20
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Heinz Award, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Anonymous (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.

Hi sophie sorry i did not notice a comment section my bad, next time i will leave a reason on the editing page. i edited the section purely because the toxicity of the gold compounds that were referenced was to due with the cyanide present in the compound, gold itself being biologically inert i thought better to remove the section as i thought it misleading. hope that clears it up thanks Samt167 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samt167 (talk • contribs) 12:39, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Sophus Bie, you tell us on your user-page that you have a PGP-key, but you don’t provide it. Could you please use a pgp-template with an ID-field (like Template:User PGP)?

Telecommunication hoax concern in the Philippines
Hi Sophus Bie, thanks again for the Telecommunication Barnstar that you've award to me. I guess I need your help though, this user continues to input vandalised things, and of course, I've proposed a deletion for some of the articles he/she contributed (like DWNP, DYPE, DYIL, DYRV, and most notably, my suspected hoax article DXAJ). I keep removing his edits by the use of manual editing since my Twinkle tool restricted in my office where I've worked for. My concerned as well is, that user continues to vandalized WIkipedia by using IP addresses, try to look for the History of those articles that I've linked inside the parenthesis, and also look for this one and another one. I keep removing his contributions because this is clearly a vandalism and a hoax. Please review it properly to avoid an abusive use of this site just to trick others. Thanks and cheers. Hamham31  Heke!  KushKush! 01:59, 24 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Hey, Hamham! Sorry it's taken me so long to reply; I've caught the flu, which has put me out of commission for a bit. I'll watch the articles you've listed, but I'm afraid I know very little about radio, so I probably wouldn't recognize vandalism when I saw it.
 * However, if they are the IP vandal on the pages you linked, then there is a quick solution to stop their vandalism. Their actions count as sock puppeting, and thus you can report the evidence to Sockpuppet investigations. (Check out Signs of sock puppetry to see what sort of evidence you'd want to compile.) If they're found to be using IPs for shenanigans, then their account and any IP addresses they are misusing will be blocked, and furthermore, the user themselves will be banned.
 * I hope this helps!    Sophus Bie  (talk) 08:54, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * That's OK, and I'm glad you've recovered. Anyway, thanks for the help. Hamham31  Heke!  KushKush! 23:58, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for the Welcome message. I'm learning haphazardly. I mostly copy and paste the code. It seems to be going by the wayside with the new beta editing program. Still, I will probably need it if I ever go wild and try to create tables and other features myself. Sonofawoman (talk) 02:48, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Woody's Chicago Style
Hello Sophus Bie - I noticed that you are a member of the Counter-Vandalism Unit. Please take a look at Woody's Chicago Style, the useless |external link and compare with revision of this page, as edited by GoingBatty at 2 August 2012. The contributions of User:Norman1938 and his seem to me as strong vandalism. Please revert his edits and warn or block him.

We need a new References Team or a BACKLOG OF THE WEEK
Hello Sophus Bie - thank you very much for your answer. You often fight off the vandal hordes, as I do repairing pages with citation errors. If I didn't - there would be a large backlog in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting and in Category:Pages with missing references list as in Category:Pages with broken reference names (more than 1500 yesterday). But it is impossible to work it alone. Do you know how to do a "Blitz" (excuse the comparision) to find willing editors to work on it. It is much more easier to repair references if you do it one hour, one day or one week ago after the errors were made instead of months and years after the error was done. Very, very difficult to find these errors.

See example:

Cite error: The named reference bx0121 was invoked but never defined

Only with WikiBlame Search it is possible to find and repair such errors.

Best wishes and thank you for help. --Frze > talk  05:17, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
