You made some claims about an article (Guitaret) I made, and I don't know why you made them
Hi - you have flagged a number of issues on a page I created (Guitaret) and made several additions to. Can you please explain why they were made? - you suggested that there was a problem with notability, but it is a musical instrument at least as significant as many others for which there are established wiki pages. In addition there has been a Dutch Wikipedia article on it since 2006. I could have just translated the Dutch one but I wanted to do it properly. It has been featured in several commercially-released motion picture and documentary soundtracks, has been, and was considered sufficiently significant to include as a sample in a major sample release. It has been featured on recent recordings by Brian Eno, David Byrne and Nick Cave as well as a number of Indie European artists. If people want to know what a particular sound is, they will go to Wikipedia to find out (I did) and they need an article there. - I made it as neutral a tone as possible. I have quoted from the manual and the publicity material from Hohner (1963) - you suggested spam, but all the lists were assembled by me with great care over a substantial period of time

Can you please tell me why you made those claims? —Preceding unsigned comment added by DiarmuidPigott (talk • contribs) 05:54, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The article needs a clean up, is confusing and needs to be expanded, Wikipedia is not a collection of external links, don't post them again, and is not a gallery, please remove some. -- MisterWiki  talk   contribs  06:12, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Lists
Rather than telling me what not to do, could you tell me how to go about doing the same thing correctly?

I followed the example on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavinet which feature 63 such references/galleries.

If I made a separate page of "people who play guitaret" I would agree it might not be sufficiently noteworthy. DiarmuidPigott (talk) 06:23, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Guitaret page inappropriate editing
How can you say an article needs expansion, when you just removed most of it?

The information you removed was where the notes are on the instrument (standard for articles on instruments) how to hold the instrument (also standard for articles on instruments) performers (also standard for articles on instruments), performance (again, standard for articles on instruments) and recordings (also standard for articles on instruments). —Preceding unsigned comment added by DiarmuidPigott (talk • contribs) 06:38, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * You can't use all of these copyrighted things. Leave the article alone. -- MisterWiki  talk   contribs  13:43, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

You are simply not discussing this at all. You are acting arbitrarily in a way that is unjustified. I have had no recourse but to refer this for mediation and lodged a complaint against you as an uncivil editor. I notice that this is not the first time it has happened to you DiarmuidPigott (talk) 15:45, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

When it says "self made" in your fair use rationale templates, do you actually mean that they were scanned by yourself? Self made and scanned are not the same.  bibliomaniac 1  5  22:25, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Note
Please don't hound new users, as you did in this afd. Make your point once, there's no need to reply to every comment and to shout, calling them spammers and make assumptions of bad faith. It leaves a very sour taste for new users who are just starting to contribute. Just think of how that had felt if someone had done it to you in your first article. henrik • talk  10:41, 31 December 2009 (UTC)


 * It was just pointed out that you struck other people's comments in that AFD (here and here). Striking other people's good faith comments is entirely unacceptable, and you should consider yourself lucky I did not see it before I left the above comment. That kind of action borders on being disruption worthy of blocks. Please don't let me see you pull stunts like that in the future.


 * Look, I'm sure you mean well, but enforcing the rules properly, especially when you interact with new users, requires a great deal of maturity and patience. Newbies are not expected to know every rule. It's okay that they make mistakes. It's perfectly understandable that they start writing about subjects close to them. Our job here is to help nurture them into great editors, not drive them away for some silly little mistake or for breaking some obscure rule they didn't know about. henrik  • talk  15:36, 31 December 2009 (UTC)


 * OK. [[Image:Face-wink.svg|24px]] -- MisterWiki  talk   contribs  18:22, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

The 2010 WikiCup begins tomorrow!
Welcome to the biggest WikiCup Wikipedia has yet seen! Round one will take place over two months, and finish on February 26. There is only one pool, and the top 64 will progress. The competition will be tough, as more than half of the current competitors will not make it to round 2. Details about scoring have been finalized and are explained at WikiCup/Scoring. Please make sure you're familiar with the scoring rules, because any submissions made that violate these rules will be removed. Like always, the judges can be reached through the WikiCup talk pages, on their talk page, or over IRC with any issues concerning anything tied to the Cup. We will keep in contact with you via weekly newsletters; if you do not want to receive them, please remove yourself from the list here. Conversely, if a non-WikiCup participant wishes to receive the newsletters, they may add themselves to that list. Well, enough talk- get writing! Your submission's page is located here. Details on how to submit your content is located here, so be sure to check that out! Once content has been recognized, it can be added to your submissions page, from which our bot will update the main score table. Remember that only articles worked on and nominated during the competition are eligible for points. Have fun, and good luck! Garden, iMatthew, J Milburn, and The ed17 19:21, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
