Meaning of different shapes in File:Unix_history-simple.svg
Hi,
I assume you made the 27 June 2008 version of http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Unix_history-simple.svg#file
Thank you for your work, I find this diagram very useful.
I do not understand why some of the boxes are rectangles, whereas others have round corners.
Does this difference have any meaning? If not, it is confusing, because differences like this are commonly used in computer flow diagrams to convey some meaning; if yes, it would be helpful to explain the intended meaning somewhere in the diagram. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.170.194.212 (talk) 02:04, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- I think the circles are supposed to be single OS's whereas the squares are multiple OS's - I guess that is a bit arbitrary. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 05:54, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

Syrian civil war related articles
Hello Eraserhead, back in 2011 you added ARBPIA sanctions tag to 2011 Israeli border demonstrations article (see [1]). However, in August last year, editor community decided to create WP:SCWGS sanctions to deal with articles related with the Syrian Civil War. Of course, back in 2011, when the civil uprising in Syria broke out, we could not have predicted it to deteriorate into one of the most violent conflicts in the modern Middle East and lead to community sanctions in this topic. Hence, while your ARBPIA tagging was of course logical back in 2011, per community consensus on topics related with Syrian civil war (even though some of them might some connection with ARBPIA), i would like your agreement to change ARBPIA to SCWGS sanctions in regard to that article.GreyShark (dibra) 19:37, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

American politics discretionary sanctions notice
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Palmer report being wrong
He has been wrong a lot just look at the at the article links and the message that he aka IP address 2603 sent you that was him since he put out the exact same response https://mobile.twitter.com/PalmerReport/status/1411133399553785856 Plus considering he is still a conspiracy theorist as the links mention him so there is that JohnPaos (talk) 06:50, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- Ok so what specific things has Palmer been wrong about? -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 08:11, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- The 2016 election being rigged or the trump going to prison which it’s not going to happen JohnPaos (talk) 10:03, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- Trumps family firm has literally just been hit with criminal charges. Given that I’d expect it’s a slam dunk for Trump going to jail.
- There is no way they’d declare Trumps company a criminal enterprise otherwise. It makes literally no sense. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 10:38, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- And with the 2016 election who knows. But Trump is clearly closely connected to Putin and he cheats in elections. Plus the stuff republicans accuse others of is often projection. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 10:39, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- So you believe in that evidence free conspiracy theory JohnPaos (talk) 19:45, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- No it’s the left who projects considering this guy is clearly not well and I wouldn’t doubt it that you’re a probable supporter of him JohnPaos (talk) 19:48, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
I’m not going to speculate on the internet about whether or not Palmer or anyone else has mental health issues. Again I don’t want to lose my fucking house.
With regards to Trump going to prison well I wouldn’t say it’s certain but there’s a fair amount of documented evidence about grand juries that it is highly likely.
With the 2016 election obviously that’s a weaker claim with less evidence but I wouldn’t bet the farm on there being no interference given the players involved and some of the documented IT security issues that were found. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 20:39, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- I highly doubt he will go to prison and you are not going to lose your house over this JohnPaos (talk) 21:00, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
- It’s not sensible to make negative comments about people without evidence… And what proof would you need to accept Trump is likely to go to prison? His arrest? His conviction? -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 21:02, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
Palmer report 2
Hi Eraserhead,
I'm not an established Wiki editor yet (need 10 edits and I think I have 4). I heard Bill Palmer's Wiki got attacked and thought I could help but found it was locked. I wrote him and he replied it's in temporary lockdown. I can't even reply to you to try to back up you up on the talk page. I'm not about to try to edit anything on his page once unlocked as I saw you seem to have that handled. I just wanted to back you up since I'm seeing there's a very biased twist on his page and in the talk. Someone shouldn't be allowed to change a page like he did so maybe it can be permanently locked once fixed, so only those like yourself can edit it with updates. I'm not very savvy with this yet as I just use Wiki for my third-world country research mostly and edit a couple of errors or bad links I found. I'll go see if I can find some more errors or add content in Guatemala or El Salvador hamlets or something as that's all I've done, the unknown.
Thanks for what you do and for any advice you have for me or Bill.
Debbie

- The problem with the Palmer report article is that the verifiable sources are out of date which makes it impossible to write anything and follow all of Wikipedia’s rules as they end up being contradictory.
- The other difficulty is that given the lack of coverage in the MSM/right wing media of the legal processes against Trump his company getting hit by criminal charges is a bit of a shock both for people who only read the MSM and conservative sources.
- Hopefully they will either write some better content that isn’t libellous or stop editing the article - let’s see. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 06:34, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
- And I mean Palmers claims have looked stronger as time has progressed so there’s a direction of travel the article should be moving in to match reality. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 06:42, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
In case you're interested, a formal complaint has now been opened against the editor who harassed you on the Palmer Report page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Dr._Swag_Lord_inappropriate_behavior_on_Palmer_Report_page
Palmer’s off wiki behaviour isn’t helping his cause and no one neutral will be persuaded. We wrote a sensible article before with uninvolved admins contributing - but that is unlikely with all the threats going around that are (quite rightly) frowned upon by Wikipedia culture. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 07:14, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- That's the most sensible comment I've seen about Palmer stirring things up on Twitter. You're a very experienced editor so I know you won't become a proxy editor for those unhappy new editors. The article isn't in the shape I'd like to see it but you have to take the long-term view on Wikipedia. It'll get there when this kerfuffle dies down. Liz Read! Talk! 02:49, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- Agreed, hopefully the Twitter stuff will die down as there’s nothing good I can do to move forward while these attacks are happening from Twitter. They need to stop and ideally apologies need to be made given the editors are ordinary people.
- Once that has happened I’m sure the uninvolved members of the community who will be part of the dispute resolution process will be at least partially sympathetic given these negative comments are almost all sourced from 2017 and the world has moved on. And the article did come across as a bit of an attack piece which breaches our most important policy neutral point of view. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 18:21, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Palmer Report
Hey, I probably won't be able to change your mind but I went ahead and did a full review of the Palmer Report. Nowhere in the article does anything like "Palmer Report is fake news because it speculated DJT might be indicted or sent to prison." There's one sentence that states The Palmer Report typically uses anonymous sources and its articles give the impression that Trump is about to go to prison or be deposed.
, which is, obviously, a true statement (I'm assuming even you would agree.) Other than that, there's one example under Content about how Ed Markey repeated an incorrect Palmer Report article that a grand jury was impaneled in New York in relation to the Special Counsel investigation. That claim continues to be incorrect even to this day. So, even if DJT goes to prison for life, that really doesn't negate the "fake news" descriptor. I hope this helps.

- If your only criticism of my position is that Palmer has overstated the speed in which Trump was going to go to prison I don’t think that’s a very good argument.
- The entire MSM overstates stuff the entire time. So unless we are going to call all of them fake news calling out only Palmer for it seems like a lot.
- And even if he made a mistake on some reporting in 2018 and didn’t apologise for it. Well to be honest in general only the Economist really does a good job on corrections, no-one else really does. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 10:10, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

- No, I'm not saying anything about your position. I'm simply saying that the WP article is not saying that Palmer Report = fake news because it wrote articles how Trump is/might go to prison. Dr. Swag Lord (talk) 10:17, 11 June 2023 (UTC)- So why is it saying Palmer Report is fake news? -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 10:18, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- By my reading of the sources used in the article, the main reason seems to be how Palmer Report covered the Trump-Russia scandal (in addition to the other incorrect claims found in the "content" section. Dr. Swag Lord (talk) 10:36, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- Ok so the Trump Russia thing sounds pretty similar to the claims made in https://www.amazon.co.uk/American-Kompromat-cultivated-related-treachery/dp/1913348946/ref=sr_1_1. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 10:47, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- Maybe? I've never read that book. Feel free to propose changes to Craig Unger. Dr. Swag Lord (talk) 10:52, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- No one would publish a book in the UK with our strict libel laws [falsely] accusing the ex president of the United States of working for our biggest post 1945 enemy. That’s absurd.
- And Trump is litigious, he’d sue for sure. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 11:04, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

- Certainly also the entire media’s coverage of Trump going to prison has also been highly highly problematic at least since early 2021.
- By that point there was the Stormy Daniel’s case that Cohen had gone to prison for, there was the dodgy Georgia call, there was the financial crimes case that the Manhattan DA wanted Trumps tax returns for and went to the Supreme Court to get, and there was January 6.
- The idea that Trump would get away with all of it was always a lot. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 10:17, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Paul Baran.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
