Article focus
[edit]Hi Watti Renew, and thanks for starting the article on deforestation in PNG. You might have noticed I trimmed it a bit, as it is important to keep it focused on the topic. If readers wish to know more about different aspects of the topic they can follow the wikilinks to related articles. For instance in the case of the PNG location map, this is something to be found in the PNG article, while the deforestation article should illustrate deforestation. I think the article needs something like this, maybe with an insert of the 2000 situation in between, but would need somebody to draw one. Maybe someone in the Map workshop could help. --Elekhh (talk) 22:48, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

- Climate change in the United States EPA's website provides information on climate change: EPA Climate Change. Climate change is a problem that is affecting people and the environment.

Not the right venue
[edit]You should already be very familiar with my position: it is not that population is not an important issue, but that it already receives all the coverage it can bear in a general overview article on the United States that if anything needs to be pared down, not crammed with more data. For those particularly interested in this specific topic, the overview country article leads to many detailed topical articles. While I'm sure you are acting in good faith, you might care to pay a bit more attention to what other people here have to say—like our fellow editors Golbez and Chipmunkdavis, who have supported the view I have expressed and largely rejected yours.
At any rate, our respective Talk pages are not the appropriate venue for further debate on this matter. If you feel the need to continue this discussion, please do so on the article's Talk page, where other editors can continue to weigh in, and perhaps you can start to acquire a better feel for the broader issues that affect the article's maintenance and development. Best regards.—DCGeist (talk) 18:31, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
- DCGeist we may agree with Wikipedia:Negotiation Objective criteria such as accuracy, reliability, and appropriate representation of all significant points of view should be used as participants in a dispute work toward solutions.

The article Templete:Population of the largest cities of the United States has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This is not a template, the title is misspelt and there is already a List of United States cities by population.
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}}

Demographics of Australia
[edit]No problem, everybody makes mistakes :-)
I have some opinions about population, but I generally try to avoid getting into long discussions about my personal views on Wikipedia. It's quite appropriate for WP articles to report what reliable/notable sources have said about these issues, but it wouldn't be appropriate to add my own views/research to an article, so discussing them here wouldn't really be helpful to the project. I have a blog where I can talk about that stuff to my heart's content :-) --GenericBob (talk) 21:20, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks GenericBob. You see, I did not notice the typing error, since I could not realize the high annual population growth in Australia. Good point is that I would not be discussing about the article without the error. I am not really here to discuss my own views. But it is no problem to state it, if I had one. Now I would need more backgroud data in the article about Australian immigration policy to form an opinion. As it is now in my opinion, the human population growth as the world population is the key issue. This can be discussed on page: Talk:Demographics of Australia.

Change in template
[edit]What is the value of this change? I ask because if it's very useful similar templates could use it. Cheers, Chipmunkdavis (talk) 20:50, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for asking. My intention was to link Energy in Africa, Energy in the Middle East and Energy in Europe in {{Middle East topic|Energy in}}, {{Africa topic|Energy in}} and {{Europe topic|Energy in}}. I did not succeed. Can you Help? Watti Renew (talk) 18:46, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
- The titles of the Africa and Europe templates already link to those pages. I've edited middle east to as well (although I don't know why the font is smaller). Is that all? Chipmunkdavis (talk) 19:04, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you Chipmunkdavis! This gives a lot of additional value. It was complicated. It I tried to check it out but could not figure it out all yet. There is same problem with the population templates on pages: Demographics of Africa, Demographics of Europe, Demographics of Asia, Demographics of the United States, Demographics of South America and Demographics of North America. Watti Renew (talk) 14:29, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
- Check out the templates on other pages. The Demographics of Africa template will not link to the Demographics of Africa page when already on that page. For example, if I put a link to [[User talk:Watti Renew]] here, it will just bold it without a link. Like so: User talk:Watti Renew. This prevents circular linking. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 14:45, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Clarifiying the use of Sweden sources for Electricity sector in Norway and Energy in Germany
[edit]I change my previous comment. So you used Swedish documents to extract the data for non-swedish countries. I think it would be best to make this clearer. I made a clarifying change for Norway and Germany, but if you used that data elsewhere also, it would be good to have it there too.
For Norway, I do find the table would be easier to read if you'd list "Other RE" first, since that's by far the biggest production
I wonder if there would be a way to put that kind of data on wikimedia, and import it to various national wiki ?

Hi Watti Renew, I see you recently added information to the Palm oil article. I left a request a little while ago on that article's talk page, and while part of it has been resolved, I am still looking for editors to review a draft I have suggested. I thought that maybe you would be willing to review my request here. I have proposed a new draft for the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil section. Please look it over if you have the time. Thanks in advance. YellowOwl (talk) 23:47, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
- I have now not time to check the refs. I point out that in my opinion it makes not sence to compare palm oil to hydrogenated fat. Here you compare one basd to another bad. You should compare palm oil to natural oils with no trans fats which is the healthy alternative. I find it excellent that the health factors are included in the article. In Finnish ready meals there is no obligation to state if the vegetable oil is e.g. palm oil, sunflower oil or olive oil or other. This is not fare in my opinion based on different health effects. Watti Renew (talk) 12:37, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
Europe’s Wind Energy Event
[edit]Tro2000 (talk) 12:30, 30 April 2013 (UTC) Hi Watti Renew, I would like to propose a large-scale edit / deletion of the === Europe’s Wind Energy Event === section of the European Wind Energy Association page. It does not make a lot of sense to have this section in the article, which is about EWEA only, not wind energy. The section would be more appropriate for the === Wind power in the European Union === article, which it is already linked to. If the section is supposed to be about EWEA 2013, the event which happened in Vienna in February 2013, that should be made clear.
- Hi Tro2000, thanks for the idea. I support both/and -strategy since there is place and EWEA activity is linked to the event. Watti Renew (talk) 13:44, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
Disruptive editing
[edit]This user has a long history of disruptive editing and POV-pushing in Finnish Wikipedia and has been blocked many times there. The habit seems to continue here in English Wikipedia. Recently, he/she added a long writing about Guggenheim and corruption to the Architecture section of Katajanokka article. Such thing clearly does not belong here, there is a separate article for that.
Watti has also added an off-topic chapter about corruption and Tapiola Company District to the Garden city movement article.
--ilaiho (talk) 14:26, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
I filed an ANI entry about this case. --ilaiho (talk) 14:52, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- In my opinion Katajanokka development concern also the page Katajanokka. I do not see the reason why this could not be in both pages. I support Both-and -strategy when there is not long articles. I find your attack very depressive at the same time as the Parliamentary Ombudsman investigation report poins out that Mr Gallen-Kallela-Sirén was not neutral in his position in respect to the Guggenheim Helsinki Plan. You have removed my addition from this article [2]. In my opinion it gives important additional information. The text may be changed, good argumentations for it, but the complete removal is not necessary or NPOV. Tapiola development has large media interest. It has been discussed also in the Financial Times in April. Therefore it needs clarification in Wikipedia. Watti Renew (talk) 17:51, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- Finncial Times interview major Jukka Mäkelä. I point out that he is not elected by the citizens of Espoo and is not responsible for cirtizens of his decisions. Finland has same political system as in Russia, the politicians elect the town mayors. In Espoo conservative National Coalition Party has monopoly, that is they select among themselves the mayor of Espoo. In elections Jukka Mäkelä received about 3,000 votes. With these 3,000 votes he is mayor for ca 150,000 persons. Previous person Marketta Kokkonen did not take part in any elections. She was not living in Espoo when elected. Watti Renew (talk) 17:56, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry ilaiho, I could not find your ANI entry when I search it. Watti Renew (talk) 12:42, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- According to many questionaires majority would like to have direct election of the city mayors. This is one of the major political questions that could be proposed as a new law in the parliament by citizens. European Union has demanded the right to give law proposals for the citizens. Watti Renew (talk) 12:50, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- The ANI entry has probably been archived. What it comes to the Katajanokka's Architecture section, it is not okay when an Architecture section has one paragraph about architecture and five paragraphs about corruption, tax havens and Guggenheim. Yes, many of your problematic additions could probably be fixed to be more NPOV, but that would be a terrible amount of work. These things have already been discussed many times at Finnish Wikipedia. You should write more neutrally and stay in scope.
- It is perfectly justifiable to get angry about all that corruption and cronyism in Finland and in the world, but Wikipedia articles should be encyclopedic and stay in topic. --ilaiho (talk) 16:48, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- I agree. It is not my fault that the corruption is so extensive in Finland. Yet, most of the corruption news is still missing here. Please help also in it. The deletion of corruption facts is not in my opinion the best way to invite the new users. When the articles are in start there is a lot of work to do. Watti Renew (talk) 15:19, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
- I have cleaned up after some of your edits, again, but I must say I agree with ilaiho that more often than not your edits seem to be focused only on adding criticism and certain narrow viewpoints. Remember that Wikipedia should be not used as a tool for political advocacy, even if you feel that those viewpoints are justified. --hydrox (talk) 23:02, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

Invite to Corruption in Argentina
[edit]Greetings Watti Renew, I noticed that you edit a lot of pages related to corruption and human rights. I spent the better part of the last two months creating the page for Corruption in Argentina, and I think it needs a fresh pair of eyes on it. Any chance you might be able to help?DaltonCastle (talk) 19:20, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks DaltonCastle, I take this as a compliment. I remember your invitation to Corruption in Argentina. Same time, I regret I have done so little for the Corruption in Finland. Watti Renew (talk) 16:50, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

- The data [5] is from The Guardian with reference. My intention was to add a short summary of the public report as relevant for Wiki. Original source is a public report about the Climate change in the United States. Essential news should be included in the Wiki.
- Only direct sentence was Climate change, once considered an issue for a distant future, has moved firmly into the present. The evidence is visible everywhere from the top of the atmosphere to the bottom of the ocean, it goes on. However, this is the key message of the public report.

User:Watti Renew is same as user Watti (that is fi:Käyttäjä:Watti) in other countries, like in Finland. I liked to keep the names but link User:Watti Renew to the Watti names abroad. Is it possible?

As in exhibit of Hans Haacke Guggenheim Museum does not approve critics of society. It is very serious for any museum. Critics include the real estate deals of Guggenheim.
[edit]- Article Guggenheim Helsinki Plan: REAL ESTATE DEALS + THE ARTISTIC FREEDOM
User:Ssilvers you asked me to argument the Guggenheim museum critics and real estate deals [9]
- According to Finnish Art magazine in 2008 German born Hans Haacke exhibition was censored by Guggenhein Museum in 1971. The exhibition included critics of the art museum connections including questionable real estate deals
- The artistic freedom is one of the main requirements and richness to creativity. According to Helsingin Sanomat in Russia artists have more restricted freedom to criticize the leadership and society than in Finland. Based on Hans Haacke, as in reference, Guggenheim Museum does not approve critics of society in conflict with its own interests. It is very serious for any museum. - Museum plan was in front of Presidential Palace, Helsinki and to be 100% financed by Finns. No other place was possible. Even if Finns had no interest to give this valuable place to this project, we could make the cultural exchange better the other way around. Ateneum, Finnish National Gallery, is excellent in art. I suggest that Washington, D.C. would give Finland equal size Museum, build it and pay all running costs in front of the White House in Washington D.C.. There many people could see artworks from Finnish artistic freedom.
In my opinion the critics deserves place in the article. Please add more info of Hans Haacke exhibition. Watti Renew (talk) 16:43, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
- Hi. I still do not understand how this material is related to the Guggenheim's Helsiniki proposals. Perhaps it belongs in some other article about Helsinki, or perhaps it does not belong in an encyclopedia, but in some kind of book or magazine. -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:31, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
- Message was intended in the page Guggenheim Helsinki Plan. I suggest we have main discussion there. The addition deserved place since no page is good or Neutral without critics. According to Naomi Klein in today’s politics several attacks may come simultaneously in order to scatter the public attention. Same time as the Guggenheim Helsinki Plan was International Climate Negotiations in December 2017 and the annual income report by Finnish Tax Authorities. In my opinion in Finland wealthy people do not boost with their wealth but would prefer low profile of it. Watti Renew (talk) 16:55, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm Caygill. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Sipilä_Cabinet seemed less than neutral to me.
Greetings fellow Finn. You seem to engage in systematic introduction of political bias into selected articles related to the current Finnish government. You give unjust weight to disputable and/or misrepresenting headline claims. You don't adhere to policies regarding biographical material of living persons (politicians related to the current government or parliament). I hope you could use your energy in a more constructive way. Caygill (talk) 19:57, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
- According to Transparency International Finland director Prime Minister Juha Sipilä case will most likely reduce Finnish corruption index next year. (REF Sipilän tapaus voi heikentää sijoitusta Helsingin Sanomat 26.1.2017 A9 // Helsingin Sanomat is biggest news paper in Finland). WP:V People can check that the information comes from a reliable source. In my opinion it is not neutral to hide critics. [10] Watti Renew (talk) 13:37, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
- You are editing articles, which you probably have a sound understanding about. I'm happy to see these articles include just criticism, but only after they have the essential elements in place. You're behavior seems to indicate a pattern, where you browse Finnish government related (stubb-) articles and fill them with negative headline narratives. You know better, so please be more constructive. --Caygill (talk) 15:13, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
- I write mainly about Category:Energy by country, Category:Environmental issues by country, Category:Corruption by country and Category:Climate change by country. I agree Corruption in Finland needs more. I add links and more background to relevant articles, like this. Everybody are welcome to help. Watti Renew (talk) 16:44, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
- I find your addition about the Sipilä Cabinet's Traffic Policy to misrepresent facts and to be incorrect. I'll try to contribute a better one myself, since I find no pleasure in such conversations. --Caygill (talk) 08:22, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
February 2017
[edit] Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Sipilä_Cabinet, you may be blocked from editing. I seriously suggest you stop what you're doing. You'll find a more neutral and balanced information on the subject in the left party opposition paper Kansanuutiset. Wikipedia is not a place for editorial work to argue for any one's political view. You seem to have no intention of respecting the community and its guidlines. Caygill (talk) 22:28, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
- I have references as required in the articles. In addition, interesting is not only what is written, but also what is not written. Discussion pages can be used to ask for more data of the issue. Here I would like more data about:
- Have Sipilä government and/or Members of his Party received funding in relation to persons and organisation that benefit from Talvivaara Mining Company? When Talvivaara Mining Company started media found out that the family of environmental minister (same party) had significant stock ownership in the company.
- How it is possible that the economic debts and environmental charges are split to another company in bankruptcy and company continues with another name without responsibilities of its past? Watti Renew (talk) 13:41, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
Wikipedia is not your personal blog
[edit]Neutrality is the guiding principle of Wikipedia. If you feel the need to air your personal views and speculations on Finnish politics (like you did here), I suggest you do so in a blog. A Wikipedia article is not the place for that. --Jaakko Sivonen (talk) 20:35, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

The article Aviation taxation and subsidies has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Only a tiny fraction of the article is referenced, the rest is uncited "filler" as a WP:COATRACK to justify posting the few cited sentences criticizing the EU and Sweden. This material was previously rejected by consensus as unsuitable for the Aviation article, but it is no better here. Stubbing it to what is cited would result in an incomprehensible article. This article has been in existence for a week and is not being actively improved. It is better to just delete it and start over in the future when refs might allow a proper article to be written.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. Ahunt (talk) 17:58, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Wind power in Malta requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.
