Possible troll?
Axl, can you keep an eye on ? Quite possibly a troll seeing its continuously reverting my edits to BTW, without reading edit summaries. This one edits at your time. — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 04:59, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

Becoming a good Wikipedian
Thanks for your help and advice, Tbhotch. It seems that the two of us really are like police when it comes to those Oscar ceremony articles.

By the way, I'm trying to update my user main page so you (and other Wikipedians) can get to know me and my interests a little better.

I Got You
It makes more sense that you have bracketed it now, but I disagree that "it" could be confused for "I Got You", especially as she goes on to talk about I Got You. It's self explanatory that she is talking about Echo itself because of what comes after. calvin999 (talk) 01:47, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
 * After she references Echo, she says about Happy and I Got You, therefore she does. But whatever, it's fine as it is. BUT, why have you got rid of the S&M GA reviews??? Now I can't see what the things are that I need to do... calvin999 (talk) 01:57, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh right, okay. Also so you know, when I reverted your edit, I removed the extra "l" from the website address because the reference at the bottom of the article wasn't working, but when you reverted me, it also reverted the link being able to work, hence why you had to remove the "l" again. calvin999 (talk) 02:05, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, the double didn't work, so when you reverted me, it went back to a double after I had made it a single, hence why you had change it back to single. calvin999 (talk) 02:10, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know how else to out it in plain and simple English lol.
 * # I reverted your edit of "Echo" to "it". I also changed "htmll" to"html"
 * # Then, you reverted my edit, changing "it" to "Echo" and in turn, "html" to "htmll"

The article used incorrect English. It had nothing at all to do with it being British English.

 * Absolutely not. Your English has become awesome. This comes as a sincere declaration (not just for pleasing you).

Ancient Egyptian Literature on the main page
Damnit! I missed it. I was afraid something like that would happen. I'm currently serving as a United States Peace Corps volunteer (English teacher) in the Kyrgyz Republic. As you may be aware, internet access in this part of the world is rather spotty and unreliable (and surprisingly expensive). I try to keep up with Wiki but it's hard to do so when I don't even check my email for about a week at a time. Thank you very much for alerting me to the fact. I put a lot of effort into that article on Egyptian literature and I'm glad that it's finally had it's day in the sun.

Assessment
Huh I was literally looking at the WP:ALBUM assessment criteria to see if the article on  matched them, when you downgraded the article to C-class, citing a lack of supporting materials. (referencing and citation and coverage and accuracy were not checked, but the article is pretty short, so you can see that citations exist, they are to reliable sources, and the coverage extends about as far as it can on the topic.) What supporting materials do you think need to be added? A sound sample to display the world music influences? —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:24, 12 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Coverage You are correct that the article is short and will certainly stay that way, but there is a mention of critical reception from The Village Voice. Notability (music) (currently) states that albums are notable "with significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject... In general, if the musician or ensemble is notable, and if the album in question has been mentioned in multiple reliable sources, then their officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia." There are several outlets that reported the release of the album and one that reviewed it, so it might be a close one on notability, but the sources exist. As far as background goes, I could easily get material on the duo's collaboration and the tour to contextualize the recording. There are several pictures on Commons that could be added to enhance the article as well. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:44, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

As for "Halo" I will take a look, this will be good as I haven't been to most Yonka articles in recent times. (Jivesh does have a WP:OWN kinda behavior towards them.). Btw, if you could comment in the GTC, it will be good.

 * lol. I've not read "Hey Jude", but after 4 years of its last review it may be deserves to be at FARC, fans destroy everything they touch. Anyway I have a valid and solid argument against him, which is obvious: There are huge difference between "Hey Jude" and "Halo", the most important, 41 years of difference.

 * You know what is his exact problem? He models a few articles as the best, and would refuse to budge from them, if a similar themed article comes, but with a little different design or content. Its orthodoxy to the core. Some comments he left for Cirt are good, some are the same bull-shit. Pray he never comes in front of me with the crappy view during "Bad Romance"'s FAC, or Imma kill a a bitch. PS I added all the alt text for the YCD GTC articles.

 * What would you expect from a "retired editor" who comments that "[the reason for my retirement is] a group of loosely organized amateurs [who] can't produce anything close to the quality of disciplined professionals."—a pseudoprofessional "editor". His best comment was that Every taste better... had many quotes, but anyone could note the same. If he wants "professional articles" I'd recommend him to start showing us, the loosy unorganized amateurs, what is a professional article.
 * "Bad Romance" to FAC? When you nominate it to that queue 58etc will be blocked from editing (I hope it :p). I've been training to be an admin since some time ago, but, although there are many editors who wants me to be an admin (including me), there are many many many reasons why WP:RFA/Tbhotch will be a redlink the next two to four years, one of them is in my signature on a Zinnwaldite (#2C1608) font. <font color="#DAA520">۞  Tb hotch <font color="#555555"> ™ &  (ↄ),  Problems with my English?  07:01, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Tee hee, you do know 56etc is a sock of right? If he continues the same douchebaggery, this time I will ask for SPI and get him blocked. Anyways, "Ironic" GAC will be done soon. I just hope that damn Madonna list and that GTC passes so that I can move with "Like a Prayer". Its lying in the deep for so long. Btw, Gaga's recent blue-wig look is so horny! :P — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 07:08, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Did that inclusion in "Everybody". — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 07:18, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately there are not "valid" reasons to block 56[random characters] from editing. It can be considered as an alternative account, and remember that CheckUser is not for fishing, so the account can be banned from FAC proccess only. You'll see that "A&N by Madonna" will pass its FLC (unless an editor has the same concerns as me, which you can easily explain), and that the "YCD GTC" will be approved as well.
 * Thank you for reviewing "Ironic", it took me the same time you have taken with "Like a Prayer", an article that deserves to be at least here. And I disagree with you with your mothamonster, that tone and haircut are not for her, IMHO. <font color="#DAA520">۞  Tb hotch <font color="#555555"> ™ &  (ↄ),  Problems with my English?  07:34, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * You know its really time to have another recent song as FA. "4 Minutes" has been grabbing that title for too long IMO. As for A&N by Madonna, TRM had an interesting insight, why not make it a dynamic list and come to think of it, it is really that! What do you think? And damn, you took 5 months with "Ironic"? What were you missing? A brokewn right hand, lol. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 08:24, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

"4 minutes" was promoted in 2009. Since then some things has changed on the FAC process. I do not remember the last album/song promoted to FA (I guess it is Maya (M.I.A. album)). The main problem of the dynamic list system is that they won't be never complete (A&N will be complete sometime in the future); it may not be accepted by the community because it may never be stable enough (I do not think so). Why I took 5-6 months to clean-up "Ironic"? I do not know, Perhaps I was afraid of the "Linguistic usage disputes" section, what I should do, where I can get all this material. Also, I believe "Ironic" has its own legacy—although before 2010 I heard the song very few times, I liked it since the very first time I heard it in late 90's—I do not know of I'd manage to do a complete and well written article or if I were able to search thoroughly. That's why it took me some time. I broke my left hand when I was 4, and my right hand when I was 6, FYI. <font color="#DAA520">۞  Tb hotch <font color="#555555"> ™ &  (ↄ),  Problems with my English?  00:14, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

You commented on Palazzolo before, so I want to bring your attention to a new BLPN section I have presented at - Neutral BLP for Palazzolo

At the moment I'm trying my best to make positive changes to the article based upon the comments and suggestions on the article review, but any help with this would really be appreciated.

Completely new abortion proposal and mediation
In light of the seemingly endless disputes over their respective titles, a neutral mediator has crafted a proposal to rename the two major abortion articles (pro-life/anti-abortion movement, and pro-choice/abortion rights movement) to completely new names. The idea, which is located here, is currently open for opinions. As you have been a contributor in the past to at least one of the articles, your thoughts on the matter would be appreciated.

The hope is that, if a consensus can be reached on the article titles, the energy that has been spent debating the titles of the articles here and here can be better spent giving both articles some much needed improvement to their content. Please take some time to read the proposal and weigh in on the matter. Even if your opinion is simple indifference, that opinion would be valuable to have posted.

To avoid accusations that this posting violates WP:CANVASS, this posting is being made to every non-anon editor who has edited either page since 1 July 2010, irrespective of possible previous participation at the mediation page. HuskyHuskie (talk) 20:02, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Final Fantasy page dispute
I've done a number of edits tonight, and you come up and, without specifying which one, flag me for what you consider abusive conduct. I'd like you to return to my page and state which articles you are flagging. --Starcade (talk) 06:47, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

OK, you've done that. Now I have a question I started on my own talk page, with additional information here:


 * Hmmm. How does one attribute content from actually having played the game, then?  And is it not important, therefore, to state the distinct differences in player-elimination/Game Over conditions between the various versions of Final Fantasy (as well as the necessary expansions for five of the jobs in XI).  You are effectively, at this point, asking me to delete references to VII, IX, X, XI, XII, and XIII, then. I would probably be also forced, under the same rules, to delete a number of statements in the Who Wants to be a Millionaire:Play It page, since they also are from direct experience with the content. --Starcade (talk) 06:55, 8 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Given this, you might as well just toss every edit I made on every Final Fantasy page tonight. I find the stand utterly silly, as it basically would require me to attribute that you can sell items as well as buy them in FF XIII.  (You've done complete reverts on every edit I made on that page, and XIV, even though it is well-known that the game is horribly incomplete and still does not charge a monthly fee until it is deemed worthy of one (at some unknown date).)  At this point, you might as well reverse them all (VII, IX, X, XI, XII, XIII, and XIV)!  --Starcade (talk) 07:07, 8 July 2011 (UTC)


 * It's obvious that, then, I do not understand how Wikipedia works at all, then. I guess I should stop editing.  I probably have already drawn administrative review for the seven articles I've had reverted tonight.  Christ, if I have to put considered-reliable sources on everything that I put in, then, frankly, I could probably bounce almost every article I read on the service.  --Starcade (talk) 07:16, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Excuse me? Am I not understanding something? All of those types of banners have an importance tag that indicates a page's importance to the project.

Can you explain why you insist on its removal? CycloneGU (talk) 01:11, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Looking over the countries Wikiproject, I think I'm getting a clue on this now. I don't see any importance indication on that article chart by quality like with other Wikiprojects. Is it not used AT ALL in the entire project? CycloneGU (talk) 01:17, 22 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Reply copied here, I ask for replies on the same talk page as conversation began. We also posted some comments at the same time.
 * I do not speak English so I cannot make you understand that not all the projects have "importance scale". If youu check the Template:WikiProject Countries you will see that it only consists of the next:


 * That's all, there is no importance, and the Category:Mid-importance Countries articles does not even exist, because (as I told you) a country cannot and shouldn't be more important than other to understand what is a country. Tb hotch .™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it!  See terms and conditions.  01:16, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
 * So it's not used at all in the entire WikiProject.

21 (Adele album)
I'd like to know why did you protected that page. Vandalism at time of protection was none, nor even enough to justify its indefinite semi-protection, not even for a few days.

See terms and conditions.  04:27, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Protection removed. I know preemptive protection is not allowed, but at the time, due to significant vandalism of the singer's page (changing her name to "Adelephant", image-vandalism etc), I thought it may be a smart move. I may have been wrong. Either way, don't tell me to "not do it again". You're no one's boss. Oran e   (talk)  08:04, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Regarding the semi at Van Tuong Nguyen
I just posted a comment to Cailil's talk page regarding an incident in which you are involved.

I'll start by noting that SPI is an area I haven't studied, so I am naive when it comes to identifying sockpuppets. However, my understanding is that we semiprotect when there are multiple editors vandalizing a page. In case there is just one, or two, blocking is preferred.
 * I see zero examples of vandalism edits.
 * I see only one editor with under 10,000 edits contributing. Which are the multiple sockpuppets?
 * Is it your belief that 2.220.204.70 is a sockpuppet? Again, emphasizing that I'm not good at spotting them, could you explain why you think so?

What am I missing?

Sorry if this comes across strongly, but my review of the editing at Van Tuong Nguyen convinces me that we've treated an IP very, very badly, and I hope some apologies are forthcoming. I haven't yet figured out who owes the apologies, I'm trying to gather facts.

I'll watch for responses here, or at Cailil's talk page.-- SPhilbrick  T  19:57, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I notice that your status bar says you are online. I will be going offline shortly, and be available only on a limited basis for the next two days. I'd like you to reverse the semi-protection for Van Tuong Nguyen, or understand why not. Can we resolve this in the next hour or so?-- SPhilbrick  T  01:03, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

 * I see. Thanks for the info. But I've seen other discographies with more than 10 countries.

 * Removed all emotionally-loaded terms (be they "tragic" or "dreadful"). Added explicit links to the Ratzenberger and Senna pages. Looks OK to me, but please feel free to edit or revert if you wish. However simply reverting to 86.182's version may have been in-policy, see BAN which states edits [by banned users]may be reverted without any further reason. This does not mean that obviously helpful edits (such as fixing typos or undoing vandalism) must be reverted just because they were made by a banned editor, but the presumption in ambiguous cases should be to revert. It does seem to be inconsistent with BAN. This needs looking at but as it's 2:43am where I am I think I'll leave that till tomorrow... Regards Tonywalton Talk 01:44, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your "watchdog" oversight on the COPS page and correcting the edits by 174.55.170.180 back to the correct phrase "cover's code 3". It is well established on several law enforcement forums what the text of that dispatch is saying and the proper verbage. Message Boards aren't eligible for WP:VERIFY, but what he/she is doing by continuing to revert your edits is so disruptive and a waste of your time. So I say kudos to you and thank you again for your input to the page. If you need any backing to bring this up to a higher level, drop me a line. Thanks!

English correction
Hi, on WP:RFPP you said:
 * I do not think that you like if I say that your measure is 145cm Reaper, is contentious. I opened a BLPN case.

This is awkward and takes some effort to understand. I think you meant to say:
 * I do not think that you would like it if I said that your height is 145cm.

I haven't corrected it since the discussion is closed. But I thought you should know, per your subpage asking for English corrections. Regards, causa sui (talk) 20:44, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

I'm sorry
Hello Tbhotch, I'm sorry, but I've just fat fingered the block button and blocked you instead of the other user. I've immediately unblocked, but wanted to apologise all the same. Salvio Let's talk about it! 10:27, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Problema
Hola Tbhotch. He visto que hablas español (mi idioma) así que supongo que para ambos es mejor hablar así. Para qué te hablo? Para solucionar esa disputa en el artículo de Gustavo Cerati sobre los "notable instruments". He visto la talk page y hay un alegato bien largo al respecto. Al final, por mayoría, pareció que se decidió no incluir esta sección del infobox. Pero a mi no me parecen argumentos de peso los que se exponen. Por ejemplo ese de que "debe tener instrumentos personalizados como John Petrucci". Pues la gran mayoría de los músicos que están en wikipedia y que incluyen esta sección, no tienen instrumentos personalizados ni nada parecido. A decir verdad, sólo nombran los instrumentos más utilizados por dicho artista. He visto que tú has revertido ediciones de usuarios que han intentado incluirla, claro que sin consultar. Yo considero una real estupidez armar un conflicto tan grande por un detalle insignificante, como lo es esa sección del infobox. Además de que no ocasiona ningún tipo de daño, vandalismo o va en contra de la verdad, como de las normas. Mi posición es que debiera incluirse la sección y no habría por qué oponerse, pero mi opinión no vale de nada si estoy sólo. Por eso pido tu apoyo y que me dejes incluirla. No digas que lo exponga en la talkpage, ya que tu mismo deberías saber de que no me serviría de mucho, ya que en esta wiki no encontraría mucho apoyo, por falta de latinos y de fans de Gustavo, que están mayoritariamente en la wiki en español. Ojalá me comprendas. Saludos 190.54.36.230 (talk) 01:43, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Tranquilo, mi ip de hecho es fija y me ha traído varios problemas por ello. Entiendo completamente tus argumentos. Creo que tienes razón en muchas cosas. Pero la regla que sale en "infobox:musical artist" no excluye a Cerati. Dice que es para incluir los instrumentos fuertemente ligados al artista. Por ello Cerati calificaría para que se le incluyeran 3 o 4 guitarras con las que ha hecho una carrera considerable, por ejemplo la PRS Custom o la Jackson Soloist, que es de conocimiento publico el uso que él les ha dado. No se trata de incluir una larga lista con TODAS las guitarras que usa y ha usado, sino las más características. Yo mismo cuando imagino a Cerati, lo imagino con su PRS. Y si en latinoamerica le preguntas a alguien que sabe de música y guitarras sobre la PRS, seguro nombrará a Santana y a Cerati como maximos exponentes del uso de este instrumento en esta parte del mundo. No porque un par de gringos crean que Cerati no tiene notabilidad con este instrumento simplemente porque no lo conocen, quiere decir que sea así. Cerati sin duda ha hecho notables mínimo un par de guitarras ¿y como no? si él es muy posiblemente el músico de rock más importante en la historia latina, ha marcado épocas con su música y, por consiguiente, junto a sus instrumentos. Nadie se va a morir si no se incluye eso en el infobox, pero si alguien se toma el tiempo de agregar ese pequeño detalle, ¿cuál es el problema?. Es sólo un detalle, ¿pero no que Wikipedia se construye a partir de pequeños aportes de cada uno?. No sé que otro argumento más te pueda añadir para que me apoyes. Saludos 190.54.36.230 (talk) 22:13, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Te agradecería que me respondieras. Aunque fuera una respuesta negativa, me gustaría saberlo. Lo único que te pido es que ojalá tomes en cuenta los argumentos que te he expuesto. Gracias por tu tiempo. 190.54.36.230 (talk) 04:57, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Es complicado lo de la talk page. Ya sabes, probablemente se arme una tremenda discusión y no se llegue a ningún acuerdo. Además sería más difícil para mí, que manejo de una manera bastante básica el inglés. ¿Por qué no mejor al contrario?, me podrías dejar agregar la "sección", y si alguien de opone, que él lo exponga en la talk page. Yo creo que sería una buena solución. Al final yo lo lo veo como una contribución, y no hay para que abrir un "alegato" para hacer una contribución. Te agradezco la comprensión. Espero tu respuesta. 190.54.36.230 (talk) 16:33, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Por supuesto que no es tu artículo. Decía "que me dejaras" en el sentido de que tú estás "vigilando" el artículo. Me da problemas lo de la talk page, sé es que es el conducto regular, pero tener que explicar todo de nuevo, además en inglés (con el cuál se puede entender de otra forma lo que quiero decir, gracias a mi manejo básico) no me agrada mucho. Lo del RFC no creo que sirva. Por lo que vi en la misma talk page, las opiniones eran todas contrarias y sin embargo carecían de argumentos sólidos, pero como eran mayoría igual eran tomadas en cuenta. Y sinceramente, la falta de latinos igual tiene un peso, en el sentido de que si estuvieramos hablando de Jimi Hendrix por ejemplo, seguramente en dos segundos habría consenso de agregar la sección por que él es muy popular y conocido. No así Cerati en el mundo no latino. Si a mi me vinieran a hablar de la notabilidad de "Juan Perez", yo diría que no es notable, porque no lo conozco. Al menos ese es el punto de vista que en general tienen los que opinan sin saber del tema, no suelen averiguar antes de opinar. En resumen, aún siendo buenos mis argumentos, sé que me van a decir que no. Genial, ahora no sé que hacer... 190.54.36.230 (talk) 03:42, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
 * No puede llamarle vandalismo a agregar notable instruments. Se nota que él no tiene mucho conocimiento de las políticas de Wikipedia. En WP:VAND dice claramente: "Si se hace de buena fe, cualquier esfuerzo de mejorar la enciclopedia, aunque esté equivocado, no es vandalismo". 190.54.36.230 (talk) 17:00, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Si no es mucha molestia, ¿por qué no le dices algo tú?. Le podrías decir que no es vandalismo y que está acorde con las normas de Wiki. Te lo agradecería mucho. Tú eres un usuario más respetado y sería más convincente que le dijeras algo tú a que se lo diga una simple "ip". 190.54.36.230 (talk) 23:10, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Oye Tbhotch me di cuenta de algo. BurienBomber editó como supuesto vandalismo mi edición cuando tu pusiste en el infobox "Do not add "Notable instruments" here, see talkpage". Entonces la solución más simple es que tú en persona incluyas la sección y borres eso que pusiste. Si cualquier otro usuario incluyera la sección, parecería que estaría pasando por sobre tu petición. Si tú lo haces no habrá problema. Te doy las guitarras, que son 4 y te aseguro que son las más características, ni más ni menos. Irían en este orden: PRS Custom (PRS Guitars), G&L Legacy HB (G&L Musical Instruments), Gibson ES-335 y Jackson Soloist.
 * Disculpa, te he molestado demás, pero no tenía a quien recurrir. Te agradezco mucho el hecho que al menos me hayas prestado atención. Veamos si haces este último favor por mi. Gracias por todo. Espero tu respuesta aunque sea negativa. 190.54.36.230 (talk) 15:36, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Your User:Tbhotch/EN page
I just stumbled across your User:Tbhotch/EN page, so I thought I'd make a few suggestions. Feel free to use them or ignore them. :-)

''You have probably noticed that my English level is not good enough. What you probably did not know is that English is not my primary language, and I'm taking courses to learn. I started to edit Wikipedia because I did not like to see Electricidad as a redlink; it is a studio album by Jesse & Joy that contains songs I like. Some time after, I discovered that this site could help me to improve my English, so I decided to stay and and try to upgrade it. It has improved, with no doubt, but still not enough.''

''You have probably noticed that my English level is not good enough. ''
 * "Good enough' is a comparative statement, and should normally be followed by a "...for (whatever)" as you are clarifying what purpose your English is not good enough for. One alternative is "...not good enough for Wikipedia", however I don't like that as your English clearly is good enough. So a better alternative would be: "You have probably noticed that my English level is not at the same standard as most editors."

''What you probably did not know is that English is not my primary language, and I'm taking courses to learn. ''
 * There is nothing wrong with this statement grammatically, however it is better (stylistically) to not try to guess what other people know. "English is not my primary language and I am taking courses to improve it." is a better sentence that says the same thing.

Some time after, I discovered that this site could help me to improve my English, so I decided to stay and and try to upgrade it.
 * When you use the word "it" in a sentence, it refers to the subject of the sentence, which here is "this site". The second half of this sentence says you decided to stay at "this site" and try to upgrade "this site". I don't think this is what you actually meant to say.

It has improved, with no doubt, but still not enough.
 * Following on from the last sentence, the word "it" still refers to Wikipedia, so here you are saying Wikipedia has improved, but not enough. (I know you actually intended to mean your English skills.)

Here is a rewrite of these two sentences which makes your point more clearly: "Some time after, I discovered that this site could help me to improve my English, so I decided to stay. My English has improved, no doubt, but more improvement is needed".

Anyway, hope this has some benefit for you. Good luck, your English is already very good so don't criticize yourself too much. Manning (talk) 04:44, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Rowan Atkinson
The addition of Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmonson as 'influenced' on the Rowan Atkinson page were only added as they were removed, I'm assuming accidentaly, from a previous edit by 65.93.40.90. .

Azerbaijani-American
hi Tbhotch! You have previously edited the article Azerbaijani American, that's why I decided to ask you to look at this version of the page I have done many edits to it, expanded it tremendously, added many fresh, new sources, including unique statistics from the Department of Homeland Security, and in general made this article more consistent with other similar articles about "hyphenated Americans", such as Russian American, Turkish American, Iranian American, Armenian American, etc. This version of the article, however, keeps being reverted by some users, including IP anons, who are otherwise never improving the article in any way, content with keeping it in a sorry state and just revert. The article as well as its talk page could benefit from your insight and knowledge. I have left extensive comments myself, and each time I edited, I left an overwhelming number of sources, going above and beyond of what's necessary. I don't want this simple article to become artificially polarized, and thus think your "two cents" would help improve it. --Saygi1 (talk) 00:13, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

 * No, I don't have any problem with the bot, that'll save me some time and from missing the notifications (Recently, I missed to notify List of Doctor Who serials authors). Of course a problem would be the notifications. I always notify all the authors that have edited the page at least 100 times (>90 times in some cases), and when the page has been edited less than 100 times, I notify the main author only. One problem I see is that not all the main authors are the ones that nominated the article to FA (I don't remember in which article I saw this). If you can create that bot it would be great.

Edit notice at List of Telugu Brahmins
I'd thought I had used an edit notice there from [Template:Editnotice for lists of people]], but I must admit I was surprised to see it showed up on the article page, but not unhappy with that. I've asked at the Help desk what I did wrong. You'll probably disagree, but I think it was much more likely to be effective actually on the article page rather than only showing up when the article is edited.

Lanix, (again)
I'm sorry to bother you again with this but, Fleetham has started another baseless edit war on the Lanix page. I added it to the catgory "mobile phone manufacturers" and he said that Lanix isn't a mobile phone manufacturer despite Lanix selling mobile phones and stating that they make all their own products. I don't know what it is that he has against Lanix but it is becomming rediculous! He's saying that Lanix's claims that they manufacture phones are not good enough, despite there being multiple links to Lanix's mobile division. He also brought in to question whether Lanix made the first domestically succesful computer so I added a citation to back this up and he then deleted it and then said there is no citation! He is being downright underhanded and dishonest! He is also using weasel words such as "Lanix names itself the largest computer company in Mexico" instead of accepting it as fact like the citation states. In addition he keeps saying "please don't revert, it is impolite" but hypocritically keeps doing it himself and outright ignore citations including ones from sources such as CNN, the official Lanix website and Telmex! If you look through his talk page you will see he has been blocked for doing this sort of stuff to the Lanix page multiple times in the past and multiple editors and adminstratorshave condemed his actions and keep telling him he is wrong by providing cited arguments to back up their claims while he has added a lot of his own guess work. He only listens to ciations when they suit him and will not accept others viewpoints. I don't know what to do to stop it and think I should possibly request him to be banned for an amount of time determined by an admin but I don't know how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreaciated! 75.80.58.122 (talk) 03:10, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

 * In my case it has always been the same problem: I create the FAC, then somebody oppose the article with a reason to, I resolve the comments, then somebody oppose the FAC with an unvalid or poor rationale. I try to convince the delegates that he is wrong, but he defens his POV making a looong converation about it. Then no one review it and finally a hurricane close the FAC as "not promoted". I do not want to pass this again, so I prefer FLCs and GANs only.

The biggest problem is that most of them are old and they still believe songs are released, promoted and mixed (the list is long) the same way it was done in their times (maybe in the 1980s).

Festival Internacional Cervantino
Hi! Students of the Club Wikipedia at ITESM CCM and I are working on a project to create and improve articles related to the Festival Internacional Cervantino. We are still organizing although we have made some good contacts with embassy of the special guest-countries and the press people of the Festival. Ive worked on the Festival's page and two participants' pages Angereds Teater and Åke Parmerud as well as the European Festival Association to which the festival belongs. It hasnt been easy so far, even the Festival page is no where near where Id like it to be and a lot of that is finding info. That's where we hope working with the embassies and making other contacts will help. *Fingers crossed* These articles also desperately need images, another focus of the project. Anyway, we could sure use some experienced hands at this, as most Club members are still newbies at editing Wikipedia. We want the Festival's article in as many languages as possible, as as many of the participants' pages in both English and Spanish.

If you'd like to help, we'd love to have you!Thelmadatter (talk) 17:50, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Questionnaire
Hi there, I wonder if you would be interested in helping me with my research on Wikipedia. I am writing a dissertation on Wikipedia as part of my undergraduate course at the University of Cambridge. What I am asking is for you to complete a questionnaire with a number of general, subjective questions about your experiences working on Wikipedia, for example concerning Wikipedia's culture, your motivation in participating and so on. It should take 10-20 minutes. Participants will be anonymous if requested. More information is available if you are interested. Thanks! I really appreciate any time you can give!

 * Of course "there is no restriction on the number of samples that can be used in an article" but there is a restriction that non-free media cannot be used elsewhere in Wikipedia (without a proper rationale) called "fair use".

"lol" just wierd!!
Hate to bother you over something so trivial, but it's driving me crazy.

I read the Everst(talk) post by user:69.181.1.1 on 00:51, 20 September 2011 (UTC). Shortly after that, I checked the current version of the Mount Everest article (I am sure it was the current version), and sure enough there was the lol just as described. I checked the revision history and saw the cluebot edit that was made a few hours before. It was actually logged as 1 minute after the initial vandalism edit. I then went back to the current version of the page. The lol was still there. I clicked edit, and in the edit window, it was not visible, it wasn't there, just as described by the IP. I went back to current version, the lol was still there. Went to the edit window again, it wasn't visible.

Now, thinking it was a hidden code of some kind, I deleted the line breaks in the location of the vandalism and then I reinstalled the breaks. I checked preview and it was gone. I wrote an edit summary and saved the page. The lol was now gone and I got no edit conflict. Thinking I fixed it, I went back to the discussion page to report I fixed it. It was only then did I get an edit conflict from your edit on the discussion page explaining the cluebot edit. Again the clubot edit was performed hours before all this happened. I checked the revision history and the cluebot edit was still the lastest version of the page! and there is no record at all of my revision!

Any idea what happened? Im not making this up and Im not crazy. I'm sure I was looking at current version each time. Its just really wierd. Can you shed any light at all on this?--Racerx11 (talk) 02:10, 20 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the explanation. I didn't know things like this were common. Never seen it before. Most of my edits are made on low traffic pages, so this issue doesn't ever come up on those type articles.--Racerx11 (talk) 02:26, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Locks and semi-protection
I notice that whenever I forget to add the lock (the small semi-protection template) on an article, "you" seem to come around and add it for me, in a relatively short period of time. I presume this is a bot running on your account. Is the bot relatively fool-proof? In other words, is it unnecessary for a protecting admin such as myself to personally add the lock? Or is it still better to do ourselves, just in case the bot doesn't catch it. You can reply here, I'll watch this page. Qwyrxian (talk) 07:12, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * No, it is not a bot, it is just me helped by the Protection log. When an admin doesn't add a pp-protected template to a semi-protected page (per obvious reasons) I add the // (depending the page). It is not necessary to add it but, for courtesy for the unregistered users, I add the lock. Tb hotch .™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it!  See terms and conditions.  07:17, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

What about when the information stated in the lead isn't present in the rest of the article?

Article ratings
Thanks for assessing Archaic Greek alphabets. From the sequence of your edits ("start class" assessment after less than a minute of consideration, then immediately up to "B" the next day with a preceding editing pause of 7 minutes, during which I assume you read the article, which hadn't changed in the meantime) I take it that the earlier "rating" was just a mechanical default; if not, the difference in your assessment would be inexplicable.

May I suggest that such a practice of handing out "start"s more or less blindly is seriously not a good idea. "Start class" is a very poor rating; it basically amounts to saying that the article is rubbish. (Quoting from a typical project quality scale: "quite incomplete [...] weak in many areas. [...] may be distinctly unencyclopedic, and MoS compliance non-existent [...] will also need substantial improvements"). To an experienced Wikipedian, having such a tag slapped on a piece of work one has been investing serious academic effort in can come across as seriously insulting, especially when it is done in this drive-by fashion. I can certainly say I felt pissed in this case.

The option to leave the class parameter blank exists for a reason, so please, when you're not actually assessing stuff, use that.

When dealing with work by serious, experienced fellow editors, even a "C" rating implies serious criticism, and should not be done lightly; in fact, it is hardly polite to add such an assessment at all unless it is accompanied by some explanation of what the perceived weaknesses are. Fut.Perf. ☼ 05:31, 24 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Hey, you seem to be doing it again. This is not an article I care about, but can you tell me how Michael Sata is a "start class", and how you determined that in under one minute? Fut.Perf. ☼ 17:39, 24 September 2011 (UTC)


 * No, wait, I do want an answer. Yes, I looked a bit over your assessment contributions from the last few days to see what is going on. Given the fact that you could assess the exact same article once as "start" and once as "B" within the span of 24 hours in at least one case, I believe some curiosity is indeed warranted here. Either you really do not read the articles, or you are handing out assessments at random, or your judgment is instable to a surprising extent. This is particularly troublesome as you are apparently assessing articles across a huge range of topic areas, most of which you apparently have no particular expertise in and no connection to the wikiprojects concerned. About the Sata article, I read the criteria. So, can you tell me where exactly that article is "quite incomplete" and "weak in many areas" (rather than, say, having merely "some gaps or missing elements"?)

Your note on my talk page
You left a note about edit warring on my talk page. I was attempting to revert the page-move vandalism by of movement of LNER Peppercorn Class A1 60163 Tornado to Tornado_(Choo_Choo_Train). Unfortunately, I was not able to enforce page-move protection before this user reversed my actions. I'd appreciate the page restored to it's original title, and the user warned by yourself. Cheers, Ian ¹³  /t  17:59, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I refrained from further administrative enforcement following your comment regarding my actions. I now see that an independent administrator has imposed an indefinite block against the user involved. I have therefore removed your warning from my user talk page. Ian ¹³  /t  18:16, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Not entirely sure what was going on here, but I've put a stop to it. IMHO, such clear vandalism and edit warring would not stop an involved admin from acting. Any admin worth their salt would have reached the same conclusion and blocked. Mjroots (talk) 18:22, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I've now looked into exactly what was happening here. IMHO, this warning that you gave was unjustified. Moving a page to an unencyclopedic title is vandalism, and as such is specifically excluded from WP:3RR.

Grammar corrections
Hi Tbhotch! I saw you on WP:RfPP, and read your User:Tbhotch/EN page, and just couldn't help but make a few corrections. You'll see them here. I wanted to post a quick explanation of those changes in hopes that it might help you in some way. :) I'll go through it one at a time from top to bottom. Overall, your English is very good, and I hope you don't take this as a criticism! And that's it! :) Again, please don't take all that as criticism - your English is very, very good. I simply noticed that you asked for input, and I hope that input was useful to you in some way. Feel free to swing by my talk page if you have any questions. Good luck, and happy editing! :)  &mdash; Jess &middot; &Delta;&hearts; 06:13, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Changed "the latter" to "it". "Latter" and "former" are typically used when there are two things being discussed. For instance, "I have an apple and an orange. I ate the former, and gave my friend the latter." However, on your page, there was only one thing being clearly discussed, so just saying "it" was more appropriate.
 * In the second paragraph, I made a few changes. First, I changed "its" to "passed". In that sentence, you were using "its" as a verb. There are some (very formal, or poetic) senses where verbs can be left out in English, but it is not common, and can result in confusion if the surrounding text isn't in that same formal style. I can elaborate more on this if it sounds confusing (it is!) Generally speaking, you always want to include a verb.
 * In the second paragraph I also removed "beside", since it didn't belong there. "Beside" most often means "next to something", so it's out of place in this sentence. I don't know what you meant, so it's hard to explain in more detail, but if you have any questions about it, I'll do my best.
 * In the second paragraph, I also added "and" after the last comma. You will almost always want to use a conjunction (like and) when you're combining sentence fragments like this. You don't always have to put "and" in the middle, but you should always put it at the end. For example "I put on my shoes, and I tied them, and I went to the store" means the same thing as "I put on my shoes, I tied them, and I went to the store". Either of those sentences are okay, but you shouldn't say "I put on my shoes, I tied them, I went to the store". That last example is missing an "and" at the end. Does that make sense?
 * In the second paragraph, I changed "it" to "my English". The word "it" is okay to use sometimes, but you want to make sure you don't use it too far away from your subject. In that sentence, you wanted "it" to mean "my English", but you hadn't talked about your English since the last paragraph, which was too far away. For example, if I write a very long article, and in the beginning I talk about "my favorite chair", and at the very end of the article I say "it was very comfortable", no one will understand that I'm still talking about my favorite chair; by the end of the article, "it" could mean a lot of things. In your sentence, "it" could mean the article review process (because you were talking about it in the last sentence), or wikipedia (because you were talking about improving articles), or something else. When you haven't talked about your subject for a long time (even a few sentences), you want to repeat your subject, not use "it". Does that make sense?
 * I changed "I waive my right that any person can refactor my comments" to "I grant you the right to refactor my comments". There are two possible ways to phrase this: No one on wikipedia has the right to refactor your comments, and you want to grant them that right. Looking at it another way, you have the right to not have your comments refactored, and you are waiving your right to have your comments untouched. The way this sentence was written combined those two wordings, which doesn't make sense. When you "wave a right", you are giving up a right you have, and when you "grant a right", you are giving a right to someone else.
 * I changed "sorry to say it so bold" to "sorry to say it so boldly". "Boldly" is an adverb, and "bold" is an adjective. Understanding adjectives and adverbs can be tricky, and people very often use them incorrectly. They are complicated, and reading the articles on the two may help, but I'll explain briefly: Adjectives and adverbs both "modify" a word, but adjectives modify a noun, and adverbs modify a verb. For example, in "a large apple", "large" is an adjective because it modifies "apple", which is a noun. In "the apple rolled quickly", "quickly" is an adverb, because it modifies "rolled", which is a verb. In your sentence, we want to modify the word "say", which is a verb, so we need an adverb. "Bold" is an adjective, but "boldly" is an adverb, so we need to use "boldly". See this for more info.
 * Lastly, I changed "this" to "that". "This" and "that" are also tricky, and can usually be used interchangeably. However, very frequently, "this" refers to something "ahead of it", and "that" refers to something "behind it". For example, if you say "This is it", you may imply that what is going to happen next is the end. You might say that just before getting on stage for a performance. If you say "That is it", you may imply that everything you just said has ended. You might say that at the end of an essay.

But It's not accurate
The information written is false and can be proven with musical notes. I don't understand why I can't edit on wikipedia. I try to edit articles But someone like you for some reason thinks they have to revert everything. I tried to edit stuff about the Civil war that made sense and wasn't accurate but someone always reverts it. Wikipedia is a horrible website


 * I looked up The musical notes to the songs and their completely different. Thats why I edited it. I don't understand why wikipedia users call small edits like removing a couple of sentences vandalism. Im not trying to bother you or anything please forgive ok
 * I understand now, I now know how to Edit WIkipedia without deleting information. So I won't be bothering you anymore. Also how do you guys know when people are editing information so you can revert it.
 * Do you get paid for doing this, Cause I would like the extra money
 * Wait hold on, So you do this for pretty much no reason. I tried several times to change Wikipedia articles on multiple subjects and articles but someone always reverts. If you don't get paid to do this why do you care if I edit things.

":The song must be "The one that got away". I love it. Well, you must know whether it has a release date, enough information to sustain its notability (a single cover is not important). For example, see "Countdown (Beyoncé Knowles song)". It has not been released yet but the coverage of the article is enough to let it exist on Wikipedia prior to its release date which is October 4, 2011. ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 05:15, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

I got your message on my talk list. And there are a few things I need to point. The background with the exception of "You Are" and "Soon" give a background to the first sentence as an explanation of tracks 2, 3, 6 and 8, all of which were released prior to the album on their respected soundtracks or concept album and I felt it should be explained in the background cause none were released for the album so I think to have them in the background is more appropriate. As far as Amazon.com to Amazon.com, Inc. and the Billboard ones go, I only gotta do that to one not all of them right? cause that's reflinks who posted them in I just posted the links as bare links then reflink them. And I think I fixed the image, though I may just go and upload it and remove that one as there's 2 on it and I personally feel that if it's got two images it's a conflict of interest. <b style="font-family:Arial; color:red;">JamesAlan1986</b> *<sup style="font-family:Arial; color:darkred;">talk 10:39, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I do wanna add that I do own both copies of the album and I know there is an alternate country version of "But I Do Love You" on the 2001 release and that "Written in the Stars" is the alternate version featured on the single. Actually any version Rimes released both on I Need You and her Greatest Hits is the alternate version it's not the one featured in the music video or on the Aida concept album.

Re:
I see what your saying when it comes to the reference pretty much if there's a link to them link them. LOL! Got it. As far as the album cover OOPS! I didn't know I could do that. Learn something new everyday lol! I'm in a good mood. I just got LeAnn Rimes' All That on CD and it's really hard to get it's her 94 independent album and contains original recordings of "Blue", "I'll Get Even with You", "Why Can't We", and "Middle Man" when Rimes was 11 years old. The rest of the song are on her Unchained Melody: The Early Years album (tracks 1, 2, and 5-9). ^_^ <b style="font-family:Arial; color:red;">JamesAlan1986</b> *<sup style="font-family:Arial; color:darkred;">talk 19:25, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Sheet? Notes? Huh?
Hi, Tbhotch. Can you explain this edit at The One That Got Away (Katy Perry song) further for me? It seems like you're saying not to use MusicNotes, but you kept its ref citation in the prose, removed the hidden note and one of its genres from the infobox, and said use "the sheet".

I don't envy you Tbhotch, but you got off comparatively easy! I've seen the "Malleus-dragged-to-AN/I" thing countless times (as I'm sure you have as well), and it does nothing but fan flames you might not even know are there. When you block Malleus for incivility... is that admin ever in for a treat! The pattern never changes, really. The block is overturned within minutes, but not before he's threatened to quit, "demands the head" of the admin, or both (like this time). That admin is usually scrutinized and chastised a bit, and learns the futility. He's never said he would change, so it's not like no one sees it coming. Just do like I do: if you're unfortunate enough to disagree with him on something, never retort with childish insults and assumptions. Ask short, simple questions, never challenging his skill or intellect. It's tempting to bait when being spoken to so rudely (as if you could speak to real co-workers like that, especially in a big corporate setting - hah!), but best to resist it (not saying that you did any baiting - just a general tip). With any luck, he'll just call you a "joker" at worst and move along peacefully. John seems to have learned to handle him: why, not long ago Malleus was actually blocked by another admin for this almost trademark quip directed at him. They've patched things up since then - good to see!

Olivia Wilde
I am surprised that you are reverting my edits to Olivia Wilde. You keep pointing to MOS:BIO of which the pertinent section reads "In most modern-day cases this will mean the country of which the person is a citizen or national, or was a citizen when the person became notable." Olivia held Irish and American citizenship at birth. As such she held both when notable so should be listed as both Irish and American rather than just American 20:05, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
