Contradicting yourself?
Hey there. I've seen you edit Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 article and citing The Verge articles about how PC market is on decline. If "PC" meant personal computers on those articles, then those articles are saying that the market share of all "laptop, Netbook, tablet or handheld PC" including Android, Mac and every other handheld device producer is on decline.

Your revert on Personal computer
(This diff)

Just thought you should know: The editor you reverted is one of around a dozen (or more) socks that have been making similar non-sequitur, out-of-place, ungrammatical, and/or just plain wrong edits to a variety of tech-related articles. Please watch for similar edits and if new socks appear, add them to the SPI case if you have time. Jeh (talk) 23:42, 12 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi. You used to know a place called "talk page". But sometimes after October 2013, you stopped talking to me. (...with the exception of that Windows 10 fiasco, which was my fault. Well, I had heard so much Windows 9 rumor already.) Instead, your modus operandi have been responding a revert with another counter-revert. I have been saying that you have editorial judgment but recently, this sentence has started to ring very hollow to me. You revert info something that is in ubiquitous mainstream use and cite WP:DUE? That's the reason for keeping it!

DMY/MDY
Not sure exactly what you thought you were doing with the Windows articles, or why you thought you had justification for it... but I don't think there's any guideline supporting your claim. In fact, there explicitly are statements in guidelines that disagree entirely with your change; the line "If an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the whole article should conform to it, unless there are reasons for changing it based on strong national ties to the topic or consensus on the article's talk page." from WP:MOSDATE is clearly something you just contravened, since not only is MS a US company first and foremost, you also made the change on your own whim. Please ensure you don't do this again - and this comes from a Brit who uses the DMY system. Luke no 94 (tell Luke off here) 16:51, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi-- I've noticed we have had a disagreement over whether Windows 10 is a version of Windows Phone or an independent OS.

I reverted the change you made to the OnePlus article earlier today since there was no comment explaining it. I then noticed OnePlus One now has a separate article so I've reverted my own reversion.

Hey, were you the one who started the merge discussion on the Windows 10 articles? I think it's fine just to revert the edits that User931 made (the ones that combined Windows 10 for mobile stuff on the Windows 10 page) without starting a merge discussion.

"Copy editing"?
Hi there! I've noticed you've removed/reverted some of my edits because they are "copy edited", in particular about compression on Windows 10. I'm confused to why this is when as far as I can tell, I can accuse you of the same? Your explanation also has a few very minor factual flaws: compression will only be automatically enabled during upgrade, otherwise it can done manually. It replaces, not succeeds WIMBoot mode since all Windows 10 devices will be capable of compression. Cheers NeoGeneric   💬  23:54, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Re: Re: Wording
Compression can be manually enable/disable in the Disk Utility as I had mentioned before you removed it, and may be enabled automatically through the upgrade process.

The semantics of "replace" over "succeed" is less sound, but my attempt was to convey that WIMBoot mode is being depreciated by the new compression method that is superior, being that it can be enabled on all installs of Windows 10.

You have also danced around my intended question about "copy editing" - what do you mean by this?

Furthermore, why did you not respond here, but created a new fragmented section on my talk page? Might I suggest using the reply template so that I would respond in a timely manner.

Regards, NeoGeneric   💬  01:00, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Compression in Disk Cleanup is different (that's NTFS compression across the entire hard drive. This is selective compression for apps and system files). Also did you even read Copy editing to know what it means? ViperSnake151   Talk  01:04, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm talking about http://www.zdnet.com/pictures/hands-on-with-windows-10-preview-build-9879/3/ compression introduced since 9879, in fairness I forgot to include this reference the aforementioned text (but it is included in the versions table on the W10 article).

Windows 10: "personal computer"
Hi.

An article cannot have contradictions: If the part that says "personal computer operating system" exists, then the part that says "The overlying goal of Windows 10 is to unify the Windows PC, Windows Phone, Windows Embedded and Xbox One product families" must not exist and the platform cannot say "ARMv7". Or vice versa. Contradictions are not acceptable.

A couple of useful tools
Hi.

I wrote the follow regular expressions to help you quickly make improvements to the article sources. As you know, the source editor of Wikipedia has a find and replace function. That function has a "Treat search string as a regular expression" checkbox. Once you check that box, you can use these to quickly make improvements:


 * 1. Replace incorrect publisher with website: Mainly this problem is caused by Reflinks which puts e.g. "cnet.com" into publisher
 * "Search for" field:
 * "Replace with: field:
 * Example:


 * 2. Replace a comma-separate author with first and last
 * "Search for" field:
 * "Replace with: field:

I will write more advanced forms in the future, maybe even scripts. But don't forget to preview your edits; actually try them without making any other edit in that session (between hitting the Edit source" button and hitting "Save"). And feel free to report back any kink you may discover.

Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 21:57, 14 April 2015 (UTC)


 * If I'm not mistaken, reFill uses the  field, not the publisher field. Example (First ref in this edit). EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 22:04, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Sony Xperia Z4
Hello ViperSnake151, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Sony Xperia Z4, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not an A3 candidate, the infobox has quite a bit of info. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you.  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers 15:44, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Your edit of Freddie Gray
Hi,

I sort of agree that the Anderson-Cooper quote was sort of extensive and already covered by a previous short quote by a witness.

I had found five or six witness quotes that did seem to go a bit further (for instance saying he appeared to have lost the use of his legs shortly after the 'pretzel' move was done on him).

It isn't totally clear from the earlier quote that many witnesses falsely thought his legs were broken (the subsequent pathologists' report showed no damage anywhere except the neck bone though).

Here is a run-down of some of the quotes I found, none of which are included, and some of which seem to include more info than the included quote:

Harold Perry, 1700 block of Presbury street http://www.wusa9.com/story/news/local/maryland/2015/04/21/freddie-gray-baltimore-arrest-videowitness/26122671/ "About 8:30 in the morning, and I heard this boy hollering and screaming get off me get off me. You're hurting my neck. Get your knee off my back. And then two cars pulled up. One door slammed and then the other door slammed, and then he got to screaming loud. And it sounded like, I live in the corner house, it sounded a distance away from me, down this way somewhere, and he said I got asthma, or  something like that,  and kept screaming and hollering and the police said,  somewhere over in here, I guess they must have pulled him up from over here somewhere, somewhere over in here it sounded like he was hollering, shut the fuck up, that's what the police said, and I woke my wife, and she got up, and she said, they dragging him to the wagon, and the wagon was in the driveway over here somewhere." http://edition.cnn.com/videos/tv/2015/04/23/ac-freddie-gray-witness-speaks-to-anderson-cooper.cnn "when I got there to the site it was just terrible. By the time I started recording him, the heels of his feet were almost at his back, he was already cuffed at the time,so, and the police had their knee in his neck, and  he was crushing his neck really hard....To me he didn't look like he was able to use his legs at all.  They were totally limp. He had no use. I mean They said he was able to pressure on one leg but I'm pretty sure that if you took away that help from the officers holding him up, that he wouldn't be able to stand on his own. There's no way possible. As you can see in the video they're dragging him to the paddy wagon because he couldn't walk."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YV0EtkWyno&feature=youtu.be "Ah, they day to(?) tase you like that. You wonder why he can't use his legs." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-1176745/Baltimore-Police-drag-Freddie-Gray-van-arrest.html "His leg look broke. Look at his fucking leg. Look at his fucking leg. That boy leg look broke. His leg look broke and you all dragging him like that?"

http://cw39.com/2015/04/22/witness-police-had-freddie-gray-bent-up-like-a-pretzel/

“They had Freddie Gray bent up into what I’d like to call a pretzel-type of move, where they had the heels of his feet to his back, and he was still in handcuffs and they had their knee in the back of the neck.”

It might be worthwhile expanding the previous quote or replacing it by a more complete witness description if you are going to delete that paragraph.

I'll also put this on the talk page in case you don't log on.

Hi, Someone edited it really nicely putting in more than one relevant quote (I'll have to check who has done this) so it is a lot better now.

Link Removal
I was updating the Windows 8 Editions and Windows 8.1 Editions pages as they severely lack information about the Windows 8.1 Media Creation Tool and just got informed my links got removed. Can I ask precisely why?

"Some acceptable links include those that contain further research that is accurate and on-topic, information that could not be added to the article for reasons such as copyright or amount of detail, or other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article for reasons unrelated to its accuracy."

The guide I linked to although my own guide has that information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PhilipYipDellCommunityRockstar (talk • contribs) 17:42, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
