Hi there! Thanks for your note. I'm happy to change the license to whatever is necessary. The work is entirely my own, and I'd like it to stay on Wikipedia. On my website (www.radicalcartography.net), all my maps are by default CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 .. but I'm happy to give special permissions as needed. I would like there to be a attribution and a link to the map's original page (http://www.radicalcartography.net/bostonnow.html), if possible. Just let me know!

You removed the PROD on the grounds that lack of neutrality is not a reason to delete. I disagree on this point as WP:NPOV is a strict policy. And, in any case, this was just one of several stated reasons to delete. Please reconsider. Colonel Warden (talk) 11:00, 25 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

If you looked at what was on the talk page you'd have seen that the flickr user is saying he took the photo in Feb 2007 at the Werder spring festival - a festival which doesn't take place until April, and Madonna wasn't on tour in 2007. In any case we have a WP:Reliable Source that the image was not taken by that flickr user and that the rights are owned by the Associated Press. [[1]] .

Thanks for uploading Image:Lean limit extension bw.png. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 20:16, 11 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Bagh (garden), without explaining the valid reason for the removal in the edit summary and discussing at the talk page. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. I know you were strongly supportive of deleting the page, but misrepresenting the consensus is unhelpful. Stifle (talk) 08:30, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

I have explained it several times; this is Bagh (garden), not Bagh (word). What bagh means in Turkish might not be completely out of line on Bagh, but it has nothing to do with Bagh (garden). If you'll note the AfD, there was a movement to continue to delete Bagh (word) as a whatever because it was so bad, even if Bagh (garden) was acceptable.

I furthermore take offense to the fact that the edit summaries go

→Etymology: delete text; not a dictionary

rv. You must not put the existence of something to vote and then so blatantly change the nature of the entry on which people had been voting!!!! Please have respect for others!!!!

this isn't Bagh (word), which was going to get deleted, and this isn't a dictionary. None of this entomological trivia has any place here

You are acting against the will of the community. If you have a point, lay it out in the talk page and let the community decide

I note nothing in his responses that pertains to content, and it starts out by saying that changing the article content lacks respect for others, a clear violation of WP:OWN. [2] is another example of WP:OWN and borderline personal attacks. I interpret the consensus on AfD as being that Bagh (word) was crap; unlike that, Bagh (garden) might have some encyclopedic potential. Instead of more accusations about the supposed "will of the community" (coming from someone who stomped off a few months ago because his copyvios were getting deleted), I'd like to see some reason to keep that text.--Prosfilaes (talk) 11:37, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

I wasn't trying to editorialize or present a half-truth; Most of the aircraft in our fleet are 25+ years old. We inspect them on a mandated schedule and get fined or penalized when we don't -- Just look at the recent American Airlines incident for a good example of this. AA got busted skating on maintenance and it cost them.

Airplanes are not like your car, they don't just rot away and eventually fall out of the sky when they reach some magic age. We maintain them, upgrade them, and replace parts as they age. Besides that, we don't measure their ages in years, but in pressurization cycles. A heavily-used aircraft wears out much faster than one that sits around idle. I guess I could provide some maintenance logs or something as a source, but I'm not sure I would be allowed to do that, and I don't want to risk my job.

I guess I'm unsure what you want me to do. I'm new to this whole wiki thing, I'm a pilot, and I just want to help people understand what happened without being biased or sensationalistic about it.

I noticed that you moved Saudia Flight 163 to Saudi Arabian Airlines Flight 163 on 22 April 2008. The name of the airline at the time of the accident (1980) was, in fact, Saudia (1972-1996) — not Saudi Arabian Airlines.

The commenter on the talk page who suggested that the page be moved was mistaken in suggesting this.

For consistency's sake, it's preferable to use the name of the airline at the time of the accident. For example, accidents involving Northwest Airlines during its early years use its name at that time, e.g., Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 710. Could you please move the article back to its former location at Saudia Flight 163?

If you're unable to do so, I'll undertake the move myself within a week or so. If you have any concerns, please leave a note on my talk page. oh my yes (talk) 07:30, 15 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for catching that. The article did read 'Saudia' in the past, and now only uses 'Saudi Arabian Airlines' instead of 'Saudia' in 2-3 places. This can be changed using a find and replace. If you prefer not to make the edits yourself or are unable to do so, I will do it within the next few days. Thanks, oh my yes (talk) 16:53, 17 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hello!

Explain me, please, why did you delete wiki-links added by me in the article Esperanto. It is quite usual in Wikipedia to mark as links years, countries etc. When I see in Wikipedia a year number without link, I always think that it is a little flaw and often add the link. Why don't you like this? --D.M. from Ukraine (talk) 20:30, 11 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the reply. I have somewhat other thought about links, but I don't insist. I'd like to note only the following:

1. As for me, it is quite normal to create the same links in DIFFERENT SECTIONS of the same article. Maybe, a reader reads only one section and does not notice links in other sections.
2. Explain me, please, by what a rule should we decide which years should be marked as links and which ones should not. --D.M. from Ukraine (talk) 21:28, 12 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

During my editing I have repeatedly posted to Talk:Corn and have tried to adapt my editing on Corn to deal with parts of my fellow editor's complaints. I don't know what I'm supposed to do when the fellow editor prefers to blindly revert every one of my changes without discussion.

Ethnologue is a good source according to my viewpoint on language subject, also if you want to change that, just change that, right now you are also destroying many new links I and also other persons made. So instead of just wiping everything i would prefer it if you talked to me or talked on the discussion section.

Also it just needs to give an overview. This is what ethnologue says, there is already discussion about the number of speakers in the section. In the summery it seems not useful to me to have big debates about numbers, and personally i find the etnhologue number more trustworthy than any other source i have seen. A research by one german student seems to be less trusty then this authoraty on language.

So please talk instead of undoing everything I and other people made to improve the Esperanto article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Douwebeerda (talk • contribs) 12:18, 8 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'm afraid I find you comment that my suggestion was "inappropriate" rather impolite. There are good reasons why one might want to come to MCQ (where I am a sometime answerer). Most notably, we cannot expect contributors to use Commons, they may only be on Wikipedia; second, the header of MCQ says nothing about not asking about Commons images and the given description of "A place for help with image copyrights, tagging, STBotI, non-free content, and related questions." seems to fit just fine. Whilst Commons may be the best place to answer some questions, it should be perfectly possible to answer those about US copyright (in particular) at MCQ. Since a given question is a fait accompli, I would therefore ask that you only direct users to Commons where strictly necessary and do so in a more polite manner. Thank you. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 22:02, 30 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

An image that's not in the public domain in the US needs to be deleted from Commons. I think you would be quite annoyed if discussions started up on Commons about Wikipedia articles that were copyvios that never got fed back to Wikipedia. If a picture is on Commons, the discussions on its copyright need to happen on Commons.--Prosfilaes (talk) 22:33, 30 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Jones Law (Philippines). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.

I see you reverted me and I'm upset by your edit summary, "revert to longer, more descriptive text," which is not a substantive explanation, IMO. What's the logic behind insisting on having the same detailed (that is, "longer, more descriptive") information in two articles on territories, and in only one article at all on states? (Consider the respective populations.) I added a little info on the states ( with the edit summary, " CA, FL incl. Page moved"), and that was reverted. I removed redundant info - redundant because it is on the page Copyright status of work by the U.S. government where it belongs, adding the edit summary, "Info in the main article. (See previous edit.) Refine wording and rm. redundancy.)". In response to the wholesale revert and obnoxious comment "unsourced and completely wrong; there is no constitutional issue, it's purely statutory" I addressed the concern and ignored the obnoxiousness. And you reverted, providing no explanation. Please engage in discussion instead of edit warring, which is when you just revert (fight), and do not communicate (cooperate) so as to try to reach consensus. If you're going to defend having information in two articles on territories, and in one article on states, then do it by discussing the merits thereof, or by reverting and discussing the merits thereof, but not by just reverting.--Elvey (talk) 06:59, 26 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi, Prosfilaes. Elvey and I are going back and forth on the talk page of this article, still.

I tried to add something -- which I thought was useful -- to the "Eskimo Words for Snow" article. Between Maunus and now you -- I GIVE UP. Fine. Please consider that you've merely REMOVED content, possibly useful to those looking up this entry -- you've NOT contributed, edited, cited, added, or clarified -- merely enforced, and REDUCED. [I looked up your histories -- seems you both have quite a record for controversy, and a taste for WP battle -- I'm not going there. (For chrissake, we're talking about an article about snow and linguistics -- and, btw, what I added was dead-on accurate, and then sourced. THEN you guys went and killed 3-5 paragraphs that *I* didn't write, based on me saying THEY weren't ('properly') sourced EITHER. I do NOT mean to violate guidelines, nor insult, but: could you CONTRIBUTE, FIX, ADD -- rather than (and I refer to each of your RATHER lengthy talk pages, replete with controversy, and that is NOT subjective nor personal nor insulting) -- act as fussy schoolmarms to everyone else?] Basically, you cut off the article's nose to spite your face.

DS - I quote, from your own talk page (slight paraphrase): "those who don't like unnecessary drama, shouldn't go around creating unnecessary drama". Heh. >;-) Goose. Gander. Sauce.

Think, please, about this: you, and Maunus, deleted a LOT of info. Probably almost all of which was relevant and accurate, and which was NOT from ME -- y'all just dove into delete, NOT contribute mode (deleting not just my para, but a bunch of other ones from other contributors, too. Emphasis on "contributors".

Seems like more than a few people on y'all's pages have similar observations.) Now, back up, to what you deleted: that's subtraction from WP -- not addition.

Wikipedia isn't particularly useful if self-appointed pedants go on delete-patrol for everything that's inadequately (or 'incorrectly') sourced >;-(.

Your edits on the List of aircraft accidents and incidents resulting in at least 50 fatalities are mathematically incorrect. You are saying (for the American Airlines Flight 11 entry) that 1,600 + 81 + 11 = 1,700 as opposed to the correct math which says 1,600 + 81 + 11 = 1,692. You are also saying (for the United Airlines Flight 175) that 900 + 56 + 9 = 1,000 when the original and correct number is 965. I am considering this vandalism. Please let us let the issue drop here.

Mr. Prosfilaes, a couple years ago you gave me some advice regarding an image I wanted to upload. You concluded it would be safe this year, and so I uploaded the file shortly after newyears. I listed it as {{PD-old-70}}, but I just noticed a very important warning in that template: "You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States." Well, I took a look at Commons:Copyright tags#United States, but so far I'm not finding one that matches the conditions you originally described. Can you help me figure out how this file should be tagged?

Hej,

regarding this edit: if 'crew' is seen as 'the group', 'it' would be correct. However, 'crew' can also designate the people in the group, in which case 'they' is better. So, your edit makes sense, but the summary was (in my opinion) flawed.

Richard 08:35, 25 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

"The [..] crew [...] they" should be constructio ad sensum, which often is considered to be an error. "crew" is a singular noun (the plural is "crews"), thus requires a singular pronoun ("it" - as "he" and "she" shouldn't fit). But well... -eXplodit (talk) 07:48, 5 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Seasons Greetings,

This is in reference to a relatively new umbrella article on en-wikipedia named Ceremonial pole. Ceremonial pole is a human tradition since ancient times; either existed in past at some point of time, or still exists in some cultures across global continents from north to south & from east to west. Ceremonial poles are used to symbolize a variety of concepts in several different world cultures.

Through article Ceremonial pole we intend to take encyclopedic note of cultural aspects and festive celebrations around Ceremonial pole as an umbrella article and want to have historical, mythological, anthropological aspects, reverence or worships wherever concerned as a small part.

While Ceremonial poles have a long past and strong presence but usually less discussed subject. Even before we seek translation of this article in global languages, we need to have more encyclopedic information/input about Ceremonial poles from all global cultures and languages. And we seek your assistance in the same.

Since other contributors to the article are insisting for reliable sources and Standard native english; If your contributions get deleted (for some reason like linguistics or may be your information is reliable but unfortunately dosent match expectations of other editors) , please do list the same on Talk:Ceremonial pole page so that other wikipedians may help improve by interlanguage collaborations, and/or some other language wikipedias may be interested in giving more importance to reliablity of information over other factors on their respective wikipedia.

This particular request is being made to you since your user name is listed in Wikipedia:Translators available list.

Hello, i'm the author of this edit you've undone here Undid revision 698119454 by 62.37.217.199 (talk); You said the reason was "too argumentative in a section about criticism". Here's what two Esperanto learners from Duolingo commented on my fb post about this: "I like your version a LOT better. The version on the page now seems irrational, just another way for skeptics to insult Esperanto." and "Too argumentative in a section about criticism, it's a bit ironic... Is it better to criticise without arguments?". If there's a criticism section I believe, in order to be serious and objective, that there should be both points of view (separated or every critic followed with an objective countercritic as I think I did for example).

The French article about Esperanto does not show any criticism section but they do have a separated article only about it (with counterarguments to see both views and let the reader know and maybe even choose). The Spanish and English wikipedias show that section in the main article about esperanto, and they also have separated articles for further (almost repeated) criticism.

Well, that said, as i posted on fb too, I do not understand why there is not a criticism section for the main articles about English, Spanish, French, etc., big ethnic languages that are playing a role they weren't born for... a role as international (or interpeoples/interethnic) communication tool. There's a lot writen about inequalities in so many fields caused by this role playing, even university lectures. Do you think the Spanish Wikipedia editors would accept that section for every article about those three languages? One year ago i saw this article, for me very interesting when i read it for the first time 4 years ago, being speedy deleted. The reason was "not relevant because I can't find any thesis or many articles about this report on the internet" (so articles are relevant only if you find thesis about it? why not adding a button "you've reached the end of the article, do you think this was relevant to you?" and let readers decide?). I guess they didn't quite like the conclusion from that economist and the wanted it out of view.

The process started a few years back with this edit, the Line parameter is still being used, albeit with the notable track names. Currently, Pennsylvania Station in NYC now displays Northeast Corridor in the line parameter. Another example is Little Italy–University Circle station, it now displays the physical track names in the Line parameter. Nowadays if the service and line names match, the line parameter is blanked in order to reduce redundancy. Note that it just took a while for me to get around to editing Boston templates.

Hello - my name is Susan Gerbic (Sgerbic) and I'm writing to you because at some point you joined Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism. This might have been months ago - or even years ago. With the best of intentions the project was created years ago, and sadly like many WikiProjects has started to go dormant. A group of us are attempting to revitalize the Skepticism project, already we have begun to clean up the main page and I've just redone the participant page. No one is in charge of this project, it is member directed, which might have been the reason it almost went dormant. We are attempting to bring back conversations on the talk page and have two subprojects as well, in the hopes that it might spark involvement and a way of getting to know each other better. One was created several years ago but is very well organized and a lot of progress was made, Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skeptical organisations in Europe. The other I created a couple weeks ago, it is very simple and has a silly name Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skepticism Stub Sub-Project Project (SSSPP). This sub-project runs from March 1 to June 1, 2022. We are attempting to rewrite skepticism stubs and add them to this list. As you can see we have already made progress.

The reason I'm writing to you now is because we would love to have you come back to the project and become involved, either by working on one of the sub-projects, proposing your own (and managing it), or just hanging out on the talk page getting to know the other editors and maybe donate some of your wisdom to some of the conversations. As I said, no one is in charge, so if you have something in mind you would like to see done, please suggest it on the talk page and hopefully others will agree. Please add the project to your watchlist, update your personal user page showing you are a proud member of WikiProject Skepticism. And DIVE in, this is what the work list looks like [4] frightening at first glance, but we have already started chipping away at it.

The Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Participants page has gone though a giant change - you may want to update your information. And of course if this project no longer interests you, please remove your name from the participant list, we would hate to see you go, but completely understand.
