La Salle College High School

[edit]

Thanks a lot for keeping things in NPOV on the site. There's been a big stir up at the school about it, and people are a little mad. I think the whole thing that should go under the "Wikipedia does not support censorship." Thanks. Matt White 03:01, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]


It hasn't quite gotten to that, yet, but it is getting kind of close... But the strangest thing is that the entire school's IP address has been blocked from editing any page. So this has stopped rapid changes from going on at the school itself, so it's a war at home, per se. I think we may have to lock the page if it gets much worse.

Categories

[edit]

No really you want the most relevant as possible. The more specific the category the better, thats why i droped the the categories that i did, being aslo that those categories are subcategories of the categories that were droped. If we went with the they way you said, then reasticlay then their would be no need in sub cats, buth then it would equal thousands of articl in singal categories, and or the possibility of unlimited categorites of on an article. IE you could see Mayors in Baltimore, Mayors in Maryland, Mayors in the United States, Mayors in North America, Mayors being listed on the article instead of Mayors of Baltimore, with that category being part of the heirachary of Mayors categories. --Boothy443 | trácht ar 07:54, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, well, you certainly seem to have the general hang of it, judging by the advanced decoration of your userpage :) You have more edits to your name than me as well... Anyway, if you're interested in helping fight vandalism, you might be interested in joining our very own Counter Vandalism Unit :) In general if the scenario you described were to happen, you'd get a page telling you there was an edit conflict. Dunno what happened there, but oh well, no harm done. Yep, speedy delete nomination is done by {{d}} or {{db}} placed at the top of the article text. — flamingspinach | (talk) 06:41, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, looking around your userpage I see that you've created User:Looper5920_Watchlist - it's generally discouraged to create pages directly in the User: namespace - I'd recommend moving it to User:Looper5920/Watchlist (user subpages are commonly used by people to store stuff that they don't want on their main page). — flamingspinach | (talk) 06:49, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It's great that you created the MAW pages. I'm glad you like the changes to 1MAW. There is still a lot of work to do on history. Will you be putting in WW II history and post-Vietnam history? Time permitting, I'll take a look at HMM-262 and HMLA-367. I—ERcheck @ 16:33, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I found two categories appropriate for the Marine squadrons (though I think they deserve their own category) and added them to HMM-262 and HMLA-367. (Categories: Units of the U.S. Marine Corps | U.S. Marine Corps aviation). I also made some minor copyedits. —ERcheck @ 21:04, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

"Penis" vandal

[edit]

I thought of that, since I seem to remember that from school. That "penis" nonsense shed some doubt. I'll restore it and get rid of the nonsense. Thanks for checking that for me. - Lucky 6.9 23:57, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

USMC emblems, etc

[edit]

I checked out the HMLA section of List of United States Marine Corps aircraft squadrons. Putting graphics on the page was something that I have debated a bit. As you can see, I put them in the VMGR section - but, for the most part as a place holder for the graphics until the pages were created. I spent some time trying to find the best graphics, etc.

Since your note, I've been re-thinking it again. Given the length of the list, I think it would become quite cumbersome to put all the emblems for each squadron on the page. Most "list" pages are just lists.

On the graphics ... to this point, the emblems/insignias that I've uploaded and used have been directly from USMC sites. The resolution of the graphics has varied from unit to unit. My concern has been image licensing. The USMC pages are covered ... by {{PD-USGov-Military-Badge}} -- public domain for work of US Government.

For MAG-39, I uploaded from www.military-graphics.com. The site has a copyright on their images (as I'm sure other .com badge sites), but any use is allowed if image is attributed. I've been reading Wiki info on licensing and am not sure whether being required to attribute is too restrictive. Do you know? I've referenced the site on the upload info and on the MAG-39 references. The site is the best I've found for high resolution badges, etc. But, I'm going to hold off uploading anymore until I'm sure that it is ok.

We might want to coordinate the upload and use of emblems/insignia/badges. If all you mark all your uploads with [[Category:U.S. military badges]], then it will make it easier to find what has already been uploaded.

ERcheck @ 23:59, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • The blur of fine print. "All editorial content and graphics on this site are protected....Content from other sources retains its original copyright, as indicated on the respective page." I revisted their [MAG-36 page and don't find any citations of where they got their material. Are all their graphics from USCM, or are some from other sites? The resolution on most of the USMC sites today is often lower, i.e. MAG-36. Not clear where they got their graphics.
Do you know of any USMC site that has all of the graphics? I read that the Army is the keeper of the badges, but they are just getting started getting high-quality graphics. Didn't find any USMC aircraft squadron images. —ERcheck @ 01:25, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

My opinion--Looper5920 15:11, 31 December 2005 (UTC)"[reply]

My hesitation with "dominant" or even "preeminent" is that Amoroso's specializes in products such as sandwich rolls, rather than, say, sliced bread like Stroehmann's. But if you disagree, I'm not going to argue.

Mumia Abu-Jamal

[edit]

Re: You can continue to try and add that paragraph and I will delete it every time. It is clearly biased and unsourced.--Looper5920 04:53, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Maj. Doofus:

That has to be the stupidest rationale I've heard for censoring an idea in a long time. Wow, could it be that I'm actually getting to communicate with a BRAIN DEAD person? Aren’t I the lucky one?

Look, EVERYTHING that you write is biased, and can hardly be otherwise. Because human beings can only convey and understand information in limited quantities, they are constantly sorting, selecting, and discarding information in an effort to ferret out that which appears to be the most relevant or persuasive to the person doing the sorting. There is no way that you or anyone can perform this process “objectively,” and you are kidding yourself if you think otherwise. You are also allowing your own biases to get in the way of the free flow of information that, I suspect, you are opposed to because you fear how other people might react to it. If that’s the case, you’re also a coward.

The question is not whether you or I are biased, it’s whether the viewpoints that you or I are espousing are relevant to the purposes of the encyclopedia, which include informing readers of as much evidence as possible, and leaving them to draw their own conclusions.

The paragraph you are trying to censor is lifted straight from an informational flyer published by the Western Pennsylvania Committee to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal (now apparently defunct), in 1998. I will send a scanned copy to anyone who requests it. In the meantime, kindly spare us your imperious meddling and let people make up their own minds.

My reply as posted on user's talk page:
Sir, I stepped back and took a deep breath before I replied to the wonderful piece of prose you placed on my talk page. First let me say thank you for the promotion. You addressed me as Maj. Doofus when in fact I am only a Captain. Maybe someday?? I can imagine your surprise when you realized you were lucky enough to be arguing with a brain dead person. I am sure that was right after you read Wikipedia's policies, especially those related to editing articles such as maintaining a neutral point of view WP:NPOV and of course refraining from personal attacks WP:NPA. My brain death is not my own fault and you should not be making light of it. As to my own biases they are in favor of Daniel Faulkner and his family. I believe Jamal recieved a fair trial and the fact that he has not been put to death is a travesty of justice. That being said, keeping a NPOV in this article refrains me from adding things such as the quote from the T-shirt I own that states, " Officer Danny Faulkner was murdered by Mumia Abu Jamal who shouldn't be in a 8 x 10 foot cell. He should be 6 feet closer to hell." I firmly believe it but realize it may be a "bit" biased. Just as your comments on him not recieving a fair trial and the Philly D.A.'s office using illegal and unethical tactics are biased. Especially based on the fact that there is no research to back them up. This leads to the last point. While I am sure that the "informational flyer published by the Western Pennsylvania Committee to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal" is a fascinating read it probably is not the most reliable of sources. I guessing from the name of this group that they may have a particular bias in one direction. You should probably read the Wikipedia policy on reliable sources WP:RS prior to making anymore edits. I apologize if you were bothered by my "imperious meddling", however I will restate, that if you continue to try and add that paragrapgh I will revert it evert time. If you feel this is unfair than I highly encourage you to read the policy for resolving disputes WP:DR and move from there. Sincerely--Looper5920 07:57, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

HMH-363 deployment

[edit]

Do you really think it's a good idea to list unit deployments before they happen? As a rule of thumb, those are considered confidential. Obviously spouses and friends find out before but that doesn't mean it's okay to broadcast it to the whole world. Let's think a little more about force protection next time.

My response posted on user's talk page:
If you looked at the reference in the section you deleted you would have seen that it linked to a copy of a newspaper article about their upcoming deployment. The unit was not so concerned about "force protection" when they decided to mention their deployment to the local militay writer. Here it is, since you missed it the first time [1]. The copy is actually listed on the USMC helicopter association's website. Did you email them your force protection concerns as well? Also, the fact that certain units are going to Iraq is not classified. The exact dates they are leaving/arriving and where they are going might be but not the fact that they are leaving. Finally, don't ever lecture me about force protection or ever infer that anything I have ever written on this website has endangered any Marines. 99% of all the USMC info I had is from [http:www.usmc.mil USMC.MIL] if you have problems contact them. Thank you--Looper5920 09:44, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]


I didn't see this comment when I deleted the information the second time. I wasn't trying to be a dick and I would have responded to your comment without repeating my action.

Your USMC contributions look great and I didn’t mean to suggest you were trying to endanger the lives of Marines.

Regarding the HMH-363 information, I will say that just because some dumb ass runs his suck doesn't mean that the information is not sensitive and allowable for dissemination. In retrospect, you are probably right about the information being vague enough to not be an issue. Still, I think it is better to err on the side of caution and there is plenty to write about without giving information on future deployments. If you are firm in your position to leave this information in the article, I will not delete it again. IndiciumMaximus 10:04, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Compromise - believe this might be suitable for both? Check out latest change to 363 page--Looper5920 10:07, 18 February 2006 (UTC) Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:IndiciumMaximus"

[edit]

Nice work on the Portal! What work needs to be done? I did notice the redlink on the List of United States Marine Corps battalions. I started the article, debating a bit on organization — whether by Division, or alphabetical. Couldn't decide what would be more useful... what do you think?

Swatyester's statement is ok, but notice that i didn't know the "Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Military unit infobox" and your endaeavors of standardizing all the unit's info-boxes. Actually I must admit, that the new design is better now, because it's shortened and easier to read and the main opposite arguments (it contained too much information better reseved for the main article) are know obsolete in my oppinion. By the way I didn't decidet anything. hope, you answer. (MARK S. 10:35, 16 March 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Next Marine Corps articles

[edit]

What do you think about an effort to create articles on Marines who have been awarded the Medal of Honor? —ERcheck @ 02:24, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

    • Sound pretty good. That is going to be a fairly lengthy project. I was also thinking that sometimes when I am doing articles on the same thing over and over again the mind goes numb. How about two concurrent projects? Medal of Honor winners and finish up all the active units down to the battalion level. I really want to get all of the grunt work out of the way (units and individuals) so that we can create the granddaddy History of the United States Marine Corps.... Sorry, got a head of myself there. Before we start any of this though, we need a really good list of both to use for reference. There is one for the Battalions that needs to have units added but we will need one for the MOH winners. Rambled a bit but interested to hear your thoughts.--Looper5920 02:47, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any changes with the Portal please go ahead. I just started it but it can sure use alot of work.--Looper5920 03:41, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good on the changing times. I figured you had a few quotes lined up, especially after looking at so many bios. If I could, I'd like to throw my two cents in for the Archibald Henderson quote of I'll be back when the war is over quote. I'll change the selected article in a few hours when I get the chance.--Looper5920 05:25, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Marine Corps bases

[edit]

Just a minor point: the "Type" field in {{Infobox Military Structure}} is really intended for the general type of building (e.g. "Military base") rather than the branch using it. That information is pretty clear from the name; but if you really want it in there, you should probably use the "Controlled by" field for it instead. —Kirill Lokshin 00:34, 17 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Successful RfA

[edit]
Thanks for your support and kind words on my recent RfA, which I am pleased to say passed with a final tally of 80/1/1. If you ever need any help, or if I mess something up as an admin, please let me know.
