Welcome![edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia, Trahelliven! I am Marek69 and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

James Walker (Australian politician)[edit]

Hi - it's great to see your updates on Walker, since so many early politicians have such small articles. However, we really need sources for all that great info. Where did you get it from? (Without sources the information will have to be deleted or at least have a big tag saying it's unreferenced - and that would be a pity.) Frickeg (talk) 07:12, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! And bravo - the information's great! Frickeg (talk) 23:33, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

CfD nomination of Category:Characters depicted in Shakespeare's plays[edit]

Your contributed article, Edmund Mortimers, son of the 3rd Earl[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Edmund Mortimers, son of the 3rd Earl. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Edmund Mortimer, son of the 3rd Earl. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Edmund Mortimer, son of the 3rd Earl - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. andy (talk) 00:00, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The original article Edmund Mortimer combined two functions, disambiguous and an article on Edmund Mortimer, son of the 3rd Earl so I split it to make the disambiguous article and another one on the son of the 3rd Earl. I added an sBold text by mistake. I redid the article without the extra letter. The article with the exra letter should be deleted but I do not know how to do it.

As a general rule, just remove all content from the article and someone will be along shortly to delete it. andy (talk) 11:00, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Andrew Tink[edit]

Thanks for you help with that article. I had some time off during the Christmas hols and thought I would chance my arm by contributing to the articles on former NSW Politicians that looked a bit bare. I started on Andrew Tink, but didn't get time to finish it. You have done a brilliant job of summarizing his legislative career. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nswpollie (talk • contribs) 23:51, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Beecroft.JPG[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Beecroft.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 07:06, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for March 16[edit]

Hi. When you recently edited History of Israel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kingdom of Israel (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Mandatory Palestine[edit]

Please be aware that Mandatory Palestine, like all articles related to the Arab–Israeli conflict broadly construed, is subject to a one-revert restriction. That means an editor may make no more than one reversion to an article in any 24-hour period. For more information about this restriction, please see WP:ARBPIA#Further remedies. More information about reversion restrictions in general can be found at WP:3RR.

This message is meant to inform you of the restriction. It doesn't mean you've violated the 1RR restriction. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 05:46, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Declaration of Independence[edit]

The reason the caption on "purpose" in the DOI article uses the phrase Mandate Palestine is because that is the common name for the territory, whereas "Eretz Israel" was the Jewish name for it (this is why the article on the territory is not called Eretz Israel"). The link you provided also states "On May 14, 1948, on the day in which the British Mandate over a Palestine expired, the Jewish People's Council gathered at the Tel Aviv Museum, and approved the following proclamation, declaring the establishment of the State of Israel.", which suggests the phrasing of the purpose is correct as it stands. Number 5 7 09:43, 1 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Walker[edit]

Hi. I removed the family history stuff because it really isn't relevant to Walker's biography. None of his children are notable, so they don't need to be listed beyond the number of children. If I've overlooked someone notable let me know, but we do not need to know their birthdates or even their full names since they were, as far as I can tell, not notable. There are people in his ancestry who are notable, and I've actually included them further up the article. The stuff about his wife's ancestry is debatable but again, if they aren't notable they do not need to be noted in an article about Walker. It's a biography, not a family history.

New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies[edit]

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.nswjbd.org/.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Speedy deletion nomination of New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

UNGA 67/19[edit]

nice edits and background info, just to say though that per grammaical proper nouns "resolution" and "state" are not proper nouns. Per the latter, when in quotes then its okey to use it (though with "Sic)(Lihaas (talk) 23:36, 1 December 2012 (UTC)).[reply]

I agree with you (and the UN usage is wrong, probably political), but that specifically for when its in uquotes (where the section usage does have that?)(Lihaas (talk) 09:23, 2 December 2012 (UTC)).[reply]

Tink Wentworth[edit]

Might you have his book with perhaps some details of his opinion of the birth date ? --Dave Rave (talk) 10:52, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

On page 8 of Tink's book (2009):

As D'Arcy set out with the heavily pregnant Catherine for Norfolk Island on 1 August 1790, he .... Early victualling records clearly show that when Darcy and Catherine arrived on Norfolk Island in mid-August, they were accompanied by the infant William Crowley. But when that infant, later known as William Charles Wentworth, died in England ...

On page 52 of Ritchie's (1997) book:

...where they sheltered in Cascade Bay. On Friday 13 August 1790 it blew a squall. That day, while the Surprize was anchored in the bay's protected waters, Catherine Crowley gave birth to a son who was to be named William.

Tink, despite the dogmatic date by Ritchie, leaves the date simply as between 1 August and mid-August. You can say that he was born in August 1790, but the exact date is in doubt. The best I can do is to put a question mark before 13. Trahelliven (talk) 01:39, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Declaration of Independence[edit]

I don't really want to go through the whole tedious discussion again, so just a reminder that we use the common name of the territory (i.e. the name that matches the article title) – Eretz Israel was the Jewish community's name for the Mandate territory, and in reliable English sources the declaration is translated as "Palestine" (hence why the NYT source is added).

I would also add that we should be using Mandatory Palestine to give context to the following sentence "Legally the Mandate was to terminate midnight", as otherwise the reader has no idea what mandate is being referred to. Number 5 7 08:18, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To enforce an arbitration decision, and for two violations of the 1RR in quick succesion on the page Israeli Declaration of Independence, you have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block. If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing arbitration enforcement blocks and then appeal your block using the instructions there. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 02:24, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reminder to administrators: In March 2010, ArbCom adopted a procedure instructing administrators as follows: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped." Administrators who reverse this block without the clear authorisation described in that procedure will be summarily desysopped.

Editing other editors' comments[edit]

Do not edit other editors' comments. If you have a complaint about their content, then you are justified in raising it, but you cannot edit the comments yourself. You have now attempted to edit my comments three times. If you do so again, I will request a sanction. Thanks, Number 5 7 10:45, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict...please fill out my survey?[edit]

Hello :) I am writing my MA dissertation on Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. My dissertation will look at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article.

For more information, you can check out my meta-wiki research page or my user page, where I will be posting my findings when I am done.

I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey before 8 August 2021.

Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project.

Thanks so much,

Sarah Sanbar

The Wentworths[edit]

I am quite delighted to come across a descendant of the Wentworths. If you haven't already, I highly recommend reading Andrew Tink's biography of William Charles Wentworth. I have also read a booklet about W C, William Charles Wentworth of Vaucluse House, first published in 1918. I haven't yet read Carol Liston's biography of Sarah Wentworth.

William Wentworth has become a pet interest of mine and I found Vaucluse House (to which I am likely to go again soon) fascinating. I take it from a photograph you uploaded to Sarah Wentworth's article, which I will note I created, that you've been.

As well as creating the article for the Wentworth-Bland flag I custom-ordered a rough reproduction of it which I display on my wall. I wonder if you hold any artefacts from your illustrious ancestors William and Sarah, though they are not the only ones. Cheers, Will Thorpe (talk) 13:13, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was at the launch of Andrew Tink's book. I also have the books by Carol Liston, John Ritchie, Deer and Barr, K R Cramp and Collins de Persse and the 1982 Guide book to Vaucluse House. I designed the plaque to Sarah now in the Mausoleum. If you are available during the week, I ams sure that I can arrange a visit to the House and the Mausoleum since I note that you live in Sydney. I live in Randwick. Trahelliven (talk) 20:42, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Trahelliven That is a terrific offer and I intend to take you up on it if not next week then sometime soon. My email address is thorpewilliam02@gmail.com if you wish to communicate there.

Some months ago I attempted to reach out to Tink to compliment his book which I have since mentioned to a few people.

Kind regards, Will Thorpe (talk) 13:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Andrew Tink is not very well which is why he left Parliament. I suggest that you leave him be. Trahelliven (talk) 03:39, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
