Abuse?

[edit]

Hi, I noticed on the page for that someone has posted "Technopat virgin prick" over and over. I've seen this twice now. It links to your page - is this vandalism against you? I reverted the edits but I thought I should give you a heads-up. 78.150.229.204 (talk) 18:45, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Want another archive?

[edit]

This page is big, and I'm willing to help. Unless you have it under control, of course. Do you need me to archive for you? 2D ℳaestro Dribble/Scribble 14:22, 20 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And here we are, another cleaned talk page! I can't think of any favors I need at the moment, but if there's anything you think you're good at, tell me, and I'll come to you if anything of that sort comes up. OK? 2D ℳaestro Dribble/Scribble 12:46, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy tagging

[edit]

Hi. Thanks for tagging Toe Tags by William Bryan Layton just now, but as it was a book A7 doesn't apply. Non-notable books may have to go to PROD or AfD, but frequently (as in this case) what has been put in is a copy of the publisher's blurb and a Google search finds the source so that db-copyvio can be used. Keep up the good work! Regards, JohnCD (talk) 11:26, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings JohnCD. Thanks for pointing that one out to me. Not sure what went wrong there, but every time (?) these slip-ups things get pointed out to me, I wonder how many others go unnoticed... (Just a morbid interest in mindless stats.) Cheers! --Technopat (talk) 22:14, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Polite remark left here by innocent editor, falsely accused

[edit]

While I admire your zeal for improving Wikipedia, it is a good idea to make sure that what you revert actually is vandalism. Assume good faith, and all that. My edit to H was in fact a very good one. Please revert your reversion. 72.85.220.152 (talk) 12:33, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sock puppet

[edit]

Since u helped with an edit war on the Pieces of a Man article a while back with possibly the same editor, I'm asking if these four accounts, 81.153.44.164, 86.186.243.135, 86.169.134.107, and 81.159.254.162, making the exact same unconstructive edit to Gil Scott-Heron album articles constitutes sock puppetry? 86.169.134.107 has recently made the exact same edit to the lot of those articles and I want to avoid any edit conflicts with such users. Dan56 (talk) 19:24, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Paul Harris (musician) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Notability not demonstrated as required for biography, see WP:MUSIC

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Bernanos

[edit]

Thanks for adding the Bernanos book to the 'see also' section of the Homage to Catalonia article. The article on the Bernanos book was just a couple of short paragraphs, but the mentioning of it on the 'Homage' page made me resolve to read the book (I'd started the article with just a mention of the book I found in 'Orwell in Spain'). It is a strange book and I don't follow all the allusions to contemporary events Bernanos makes, but I'm glad I read it, and I added a bit more detail to the page on the book that makes it more informative I hope. Cheers.Sayerslle (talk) 14:41, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Overszealous Editing

[edit]

Hello, got your messages accusing me of being a vandal, re the HJK and FC Lahti pages. I merely updated the squads as per the transfer news on the Veikkausliiga website. I see someone else has complained about this - can I suggest that if I was committing vandalism it would have been far more obvious then this and you perhaps need to sue more common sense before accusing people of vandalism.

Veikkausliiga website

[edit]

The transfers are confirmed on the officical league website, although you may need to use Google translate;)

http://www.veikkausliiga.com/ I also doublchedked and the HJK websire confirmed that Kastrati signed a contract yesterday morning:

FC lahti's website makes no reference of the Heini transferring out, but it is confirmed by VPS that they've signed him - incidentally I also updated their page.

Allegations of vandalism

It's not vandalism to tag an article which doesn't comply with WP:WORLDVIEW, and I'll thank you not to throw such allegations around in future. 87.114.101.69 (talk) 15:19, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Technopat. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Gerardo huidobro, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Appears to actually be an international medal winning swimmer - http://www.ipd.gob.pe/index.php/federaciones/m-s/natacion/1924-nadadores-lograron-cuatro-medallas-en-el-xvi-torneo-internacional-chico-piscina-mococa-2010.

Promotional Flags

[edit]

Thank you for doing your due diligence on administering pages and edits in the appropriate manner. Although I do not understand why/how all of my edits/ posts continue to be flagged as "promotion/advertising". Although I do recognize that some of my earlier posts may not have held up to Wikipedia guidelines as I was still learning the etiquette, I feel I have toned down the intent and feel the content I am attempting to present is indeed educational scientific material and is more informative than promotional and feel it deserves to have a presence in Wikipedia same as any other would. I respect what Wikipedia stands for and feel it is a great resource to many categories and topics, yet I feel confused on how I continue to see pages and edits throughout Wikipedia that use the same methods that I am attempting to accomplish. I am trying to stay consistent with other pages/ edits I have seen throughout Wikipedia and use the same foundation they use, but find it confusing when I see countless pages/posts/edits that are using the same methods that I am attempting to add all over Wikipedia pages. Can you please help me to understand the rationale behind why some pages/edits are allowed and some others are not even though they are the same type. Can you please offer an suggestions you may have on the best way of representing my content? Thanks PREMIS2010 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:01, 7 December 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Great, Thank you for your feedback it helped to shed some light on an already confusing subject. Your response helped to put things a little more into perspective for me, so I appreciate your efforts. Although I still can’t get a clear answer as you had mentioned on what is allowed and what isn’t in external links; I respect the guidelines you do have in place. I actually did have one more issue I hoped you could help me with. Originally I tried to create an article, but as I expressed to you it too was flagged as promotional. I have intentionally toned down the content significantly as I do believe it has a purpose on Wikipedia and deserve to be represented. I do not believe that the subject matter to be promotional but rather serving as an informative piece and is aimed at simply being informative in a scientific medical context. I have created the article on my user page: Article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:PREMIS2010/Pathogen_Reduction_Using_Riboflavin_and_UV_Light If at all possible, could you review the article before I even attempt to move it to the main space and let me know if you still believe it would violate the guidelines. As I mentioned I believe this content is appropriate for what Wikipedia represents and if you have any other suggestions on a better avenue to go about this I am all ears.

Invitation

[edit]
hey, wanna join mah group?

Dear Technopat/Archive 3,

I am inviting you to join the Miles Davis WikiProject. I found you, Technopat/Archive 3, on several revision history statistics of articles related with "Miles Davis", and therefore I am of the opinion, that you should be one of those members of this WikiProject I recently created. I hope you will approve my invitation.

Regards,


Hi ;)

The article John Egan (footballer) has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Nomination of SIBIS for deletion

[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article SIBIS is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SIBIS until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Crusio (talk) 13:51, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article Joe Evans (musician) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

We noticed though that when you edited Joe Evans (musician), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Al Hall (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Excessive reverting

[edit]

You seem to be overusing the undo/revert buttons for questionable edits or edits that don't justify a revert. In one case, you removed someone's comment from a Talk page because it was "unsourced and unsigned", neither of which is a valid reason to censor a Talk page. Please review the relevant guidelines - WP:ROLL and WP:BRD before you continue. You have been a rollbacker for almost three years - you should know these things better. Thank you. Owen× 15:03, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

While WP:BLP applies to Talk pages as well, a mere mention of the existence of sources relating to clashes between two living persons is not a BLP violation, and certainly isn't cause to remove such a comment from a Talk page. If you wish to dispute such a statement, you are welcome to add your comment on that Talk page. Removing the comment does, I believe, fall under "censorship".
I also disagree with your assertion that this was an isolated case. Reverts such as this or this should be limited to dealing with disruptive edits, not to a mere difference of opinion on content or style. Once again, I urge you to practice more restraint when using the rollback/undo functions. Owen× 17:21, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment moved from my user page (IBM)

[edit]

Possible mistake was your edit summary. Does that apply to my edit or your revert? (we have to have some fun while doing this). Wikipedia does not want long lists of books so I sorted out the many IBM books, removing for example, all those in the "History of IBM" page that were also in the IBM page. Pointers to the other page were placed in both pages -- of which you've deleted at least one (I've not checked the other). Seems there is something about this that you don't approve of. I'm not sure what that is or what you think should be done. Duplicating all the books in both places is, as I understand Wikipedia, not acceptable. Expecting everyone to know of the other page seems unreasonable.50.136.247.190 (talk) 03:34, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the User page bit - No wonder I was surprised to not see any other comments. But you haven't replied - do you object to my replacing the pointer you reverted? If so what alternative do you suggest ("none" is not a workable solution). Thanks, 50.136.247.190 (talk) 19:26, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
