for reverting "History of the world" from "BC" and "AD" back to "BCE" and "CE." I think the latter are more appropriate to our times and to the subject.
I did not feel, however, that I could afford to undertake the effort that you have invested. I'm deeply grateful. Nihil novi (talk) 08:00, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sandwich, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Grilled cheese (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.

I hate to be a complete jerk, but people going on about little things like this long after they've happened is a much bigger problem than the actual thing could ever be. There is no principle there.
The only thing I am or was angry about is that, and multiple editors treating me like a vandal because one did. I don't particularly care about the block, even though that's the one thing anyone would care about me caring about. See how stupid even that sounds?
Thanks for the input, by the way. Wish those other guys would approach the subject in a similar way, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. Despatche (talk) 06:09, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Hi there Ibadibam! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a member of the Food and Drink Wikiproject. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?
If you'd like to turn my frown upside down, can you do two small things?
First off, go here and add ((Tick)) ( ) next to your name if you're still part of the project.
Second, go to the project talkpage and participate in a discussion about how to make the project more active, and how to go about making articles in our area of interest a lot better.
You don't want to make me cry, do you? Potatoes have a lot of eyes you know. So come on, join in! :)

Thanks for the information about The Country Bears mistake. I see that although the edit was wrong, it was not meant to be vandalism. I admit that after doing vandalism reversion for several months with only a few very minor problems that were promptly taken care of, I have been mistaken, more like being fooled actually, three times recently. It is good to be reminded that something that may look like vandalism at first glance, and in fact may have been vandalism in another case, may just be wrong or unintentionally disruptive. I have seen a few such instances recently and adjusted my notice accordingly. In this case, I missed it. Donner60 (talk) 03:39, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
Refrain from using automated warnings on good faith editors and their edits. It is extremely poor form. Thank you. OmniArticleEditor (talk) 16:52, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for watching out for my user page. I have had enough experience to expect some vandalism occasionally but it is always appreciated when a fellow editor promptly takes care of it. I have never seen someone (a vandal) put a bogus commendation on their talk page. It is even stranger since the previous vandalism was over a month ago. Too bad the person does not use his or her time and talent more productively. Thanks again. Donner60 (talk) 23:14, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
You are incorrect with regard to immigrate and emigrate. The "point of view from which they are used" is entirely subjective. The fact remains that one immigrates to a country in which they have emigrated from. Immigrate to; emigrate from. Always.
I will not attempt to revert your reversions, as a quick Google search shows hundreds of mistakes on this site. It seems the vast majority, you included, are misinformed. My effort would be in vain if I had to deal with people like you for every correction I make.
Thank you for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ImmigrateEmigrate (talk • contribs) 20:53, 8 August 2013
Of course X is the place of origin and Y is the destination. That's what "from" and "to" mean, naturally! The point is that you can see him using the verb "emigrate" with the preposition "to," indicating that "emigrate to" is a perfectly acceptable construction, even for him. You could rearrange the sentence and the meaning wouldn't change. Tell me you don't think the following four phrases aren't identical in meaning:
I misspoke when I used the term "point of view" as I didn't mean to suggest an article shouldn't be neutral. I really meant the grammatical point of view — the context of the sentence. The same thing that tells you when to use "this" or "that," "here" or "there," and so forth. Ibadibam (talk) 01:32, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
Just a comment, I believe my comments were far more civil and useful than anything he's ever said. Either way, I'm not assuming good faith for someone who says "I don't care about Wikipedia's silly policy" and is deliberately petulant. Believe me, I've tried to AGF but the guy is a child, whether or not he's an IP, and should not be taken lightly. Note taken, either way. --ThomasO1989 (talk) 22:46, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Actually a lot of the UK sandwiches are almost by inclusion NPOV: baked bean sanwiches (neither notable nor edible), crisp sandwich (forsooth) &c.

It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

As marked here. Is this really an issue when the quoted content is public domain, and clearly solid? Where is there a policy or guideline against this? - Jmabel | Talk 05:23, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
Hi there,
I was wondering if you could help me, as I see you've contributed to this article.
I'm submitting a research proposal for a PhD scholarship, and its basically a compositional study of all 42 of the seven-note modes (excluding ones with consecutive semitones), as they are seen in the table on the "anhemitonic scale" page.
These scales are described as "ancohemitonic". I was wondering - do you know whose labelling this is? I can't find this term mentioned anywhere else on the internet.
If this is the widely accepted term for these types of scale, then it would be very helpful to me, as I can refer to the scales I wish to study in my PhD as heptatonic "ancohemitonic" modes.
Many thanks for your help,
Tom

Thank you for your suggestion.
Why might it be better?
I have adopted the practice of accumulating "Further Reading" lists to give readers a bibliography around a line or a railway and the stations on it. I've done the same throughout the CWJR and WCER and the Immingham area and you are the first to ask the question.
When I cite sources they are specific to that article, but Further Reading is just that. I don't misuse it and include things with no relevance, but try to give the reader opportunities.
Thank you for your interest.

You say that the Churchill quote is already in the article under Popular Culture but only because you moved it there! The quote was not in the article until I introduced it. This is an important quote as it shows that a very significant person such as Churchill used the term Union Jack and did NOT use the name Union Flag. He was not only the Prime Minister of the UK twice but also he served as First Lord of the Admiralty. Seeing as there are some very determined people who seem to want to relegate the name Union Jack to slang trying to dominate this page I believe that this quotation should be in the section about correct terminology. And you added that he used the term in a 'derisively' way which is not the case at all - that is NOT supported by the source material that I utilized and is pure opinion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Platinumpaintitblack (talk • contribs) 21:08, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
Dear Ibadibam I originally inserted the Churchill quote as I believe that as possibly the most significant statesman in UK history (certainly one of) whether he routinely called the UK flag Union Jack or Union Flag is highly significant and should be in the 'Terminology' section of this page. I did not introduce this quote in order to discuss his mother's proposed magazine. If that had been my intention I would agree it would be more appropriate to the 'Popular Culture' section - but that was not my intention. Therefore I disagree with your relegation of an article that I (not anyone else) originally introduced into the Union Jack page. I am being accused by others of 'vandalism' and 'edit-warring' but it is not me aggressively deleting or moving another's entry - I am the victim here. I introduce a perfectly valid and relevant point - with associated link to prove provenance and confirm the credibility of the point I am making - and I find myself being edited left-right and centre! Why? Because those editing my point don't like the point I am making maybe? There can be no other reason as my point is correct, valid and proven with links. That type of editing is not in the spirit of Wikipedia! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Platinumpaintitblack (talk • contribs) 09:59, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
It seems to me that Wikipedia is there for everyone to edit - I quote the page in Wikipedia about Wikipedia: "Wikipedia is a free Internet encyclopedia that allows its users to edit almost any article accessible." [1]. You and ‘Martin of Sheffield’ appear to feel that you are 'super-editors' who can act as pseudo-official Wiki-personnel using pseudo-official language to enforce your own opinions and decisions on others. It is up to me what I insert and if I don't break the rules then my posts should stand. I will happily go to the real official Wiki-people for their adjudication. I have been accused of vandalism by ‘Martin of Sheffield’. I quote again the page on Wikipedia - "Any edit that changes content in a way that deliberately compromises the integrity of Wikipedia is considered vandalism. The most common and obvious types of vandalism include insertion of obscenities and crude humor. Vandalism can also include advertising language and other types of spam. Sometimes editors commit vandalism by removing information or entirely blanking a given page. Less common types of vandalism, such as the deliberate addition of plausible but false information to an article, can be more difficult to detect. Vandals can introduce irrelevant formatting, modify page semantics such as the page's title or categorization, manipulate the underlying code of an article, or use images disruptively." My insertion on Churchill's use of the term Union Jack does NOT break any of these rules. Indeed I would draw your attention out the part that states - "Sometimes editors commit vandalism by removing information" - so those deleting my own contributions (which do not themselves break the rules) are guilty of 'vandalism' according to this definition. I inserted some interesting and valid points. I accepted your suggestion (after you had deleted the contribution) that I quoted sources and I subsequently did so and re-posted the information. I have desisted from adding the point about the 'Union Jack Club' as I agree it is a more subtle point that some might not understand. But the Churchill quote I wish to have added to the site in the Terminology section, where I believe it belongs, alongside other points about the name of the flag. It has since been aggressively deleted, altered and moved. That is 'vandalism' according to the rules of Wikipedia. It is my contribution and I want it to go where I believe it is justified in going - and as I am not breaking the rules it should be left unadulterated by other editors who obviously have ulterior motives. I suggest that people editing and deleting my contribution simply don't agree with my point even though I back the points up with solid and credible support sources. So - report me to whoever you like. I will be happy to argue my case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Platinumpaintitblack (talk • contribs) 22:01, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for improving my clumsy and inexpert attempts (over some time) to transform and tidy up the page originally created on Jim Radford by a well meaning contributor simply copying in text from Jim Radford's own web page. I had intended to undo one of your edits (deleting category British Peace Movements and adding category British Pacifists) as Jim Radford is not a pacifist and invariably corrects those who mistakenly apply this label to him (this is on record but is not significant enough to be put in the references). However when I checked this category it turned out to be called "Anti-War Activists" which is a label that Jim Radford does apply to himself so I have let it stand.

Doubtless it's a little rough around the edges, but I'd prefer if you -and everyone, for that matter- didn't summarily swoop in and change it. "an ill-favoured thing, sir, but mine own," and all that. Anmccaff (talk) 00:56, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
You have no position at South Beach Diet. Ancamff's stance on that content has been repudiated by every single person who has reviewed that content and ref. Except Ammccaff who has been disruptive and is on the edge of a topic ban.
If you have a position on the content, please state it at the Talk page. Tagging and running is WP:DISRUPTIVE.
Your recent editing history at South Beach Diet shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

![]() Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon Despite its wide reach, content on Wikipedia suffers from the bias of its editors: white, technically inclined, English-speaking men that live in developed, majority-Christian countries. This represents an alarming absence of voices in an increasingly important repository of shared knowledge. In an effort to change this, the Jake is organizing a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on Saturday, May 6th, 1 - 5 pm. Our mission is to bring together diverse communities to participate in Wikipedia editing, and improve its coverage of queer people and women of color in the arts. We will provide childcare, snacks, and tutorials for the beginner editor. Bring your laptop, power-cord and ideas for entries that need updating or creation.

Hello, Ibadibam. Thank you for helping to remove the unsourced and dubious additions being made to the above-named article. However, your recent edit served to maintain the first in the series of unsourced and dubious additions. I presume this was inadvertent and have taken the liberty of restoring to the version from immediately prior to that unsourced addition.
By way of background, you might want to know that an IP address (User talk:71.47.93.214) was blocked three times back in April for making these types of edits to various Carribean-related articles, including the above-named one. The new account that is currently editing these articles is making the same types of edits to the same types of articles (in some cases, the edits are identical).
Thanks again for helping to remove those unsourced and dubious additions. NewYorkActuary (talk) 17:15, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello again! I have a few questions regarding Wikipedia policy. First of all, an article solely written on the character Annabeth Chase was nominated for deletion and merged with the main article of the book series to which she belongs. This took place in 2011. Since then, she has been featured in approximately 10 more books, a movie, and a musical. In my opinion, the article was wrongfully deleted in the first place. She a main character in several best selling books and two feature films, and is recognized by children worldwide. Surely the new works that include her push her into qualification for notability, even if she fell short before. Before created a personal article for her, I wanted to double check to make sure it was within policy. I wish to create a new article solely for the character Annabeth Chase. This is contingent on me finding enough credible sources. Thank you!Cannady212 (talk) 01:47, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia is one of the most wide-reaching repositories of shared knowledge, yet a 2011 survey found that less than 10% of its contributors identify as female, suggesting an alarming absence of voices. What and how information is shared is skewed by this gender disparity. To help change this, the Jacob Lawrence Gallery is organizing a quarterly series of Edit-a-thons to improve Wikipedia's coverage of womxn artists of color.
This Saturday afternoon's gathering will focus on creating, editing, updating, and expanding pages for womxn artists from Latin America and the Caribbean. The Edit-a-thon will feature a talk by Dan Paz, Lecturer in the UW School of Art + Art History + Design, an artist, and an educator who explores the labor of digital imaging production as a collaborative site where the intersections of the image-idea and lived experience are produced and contested. Through videos, photography, and sculptural projects that query the ability of documentary processes to be manipulated—to be multiplied and replicated, stopped and started, rewound and advanced—Dan works within the impossibilities of absolute replication to question the very ability of the image to truly represent. Everyone is welcome. Access to UW WiFi will be provided for non-UW affiliated participants. All you need to bring is your laptop, power cord, and ideas. No previous Wikipedia experience required! Childcare, snacks from local businesses, and editing tutorials will be provided. Please check the Facebook event page for updates. When: Saturday, May 12th, 1-5pm |

Tuesday evening, January 15, 2019, 6-9pm at Wayward Coffeehouse, 6417 Roosevelt Way NE #104, Seattle WA 98115 Wikipedia Day celebrates the anniversary of the founding of Wikipedia. This year in Seattle, Cascadia Wikimedians' celebration of Wikipedia Day will focus on a different closely related project: Wikimedia Commons, which (among other things) functions as the media repository for Wikipedia. When you see a photo or map in Wikipedia, or hear an audio clip, etc., it usually is hosted on Wikimedia Commons and "transcluded" into Wikipedia. Wikimedia Commons is a mix of users' own works and curated third-party content, either public domain or free-licensed. Our event is a hands-on workshop in curating third-party content, mostly early 20th-century photos of Seattle and other West Coast locations. Currently, Wikimedia Commons has two intersecting sets of older photos, one from the Asahel Curtis Photo Company and the other a more general set of Seattle images. At this meetup, we will celebrate the 18th anniversary of Wikipedia by further curating these images by the creation and addition of categories, adding ImageNotes where useful, linking other versions of the same photo, enhancing the descriptions, and identifying and correcting errors. User:Jmabel has already categorized over 1000 images and corrected several hundred wrong dates, misidentified buildings, and etc., but there is much more to be done. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Meetup/Seattle#Wikipedia Day 2019 — curating images from Asahel Curtis and older Seattle photos. |

Your edits on Jewish religious cloting were both bad calls. 1. Because the consensus is clear, and has been so from the beginning, which was when this picture was added.

Wikipedia’s gender trouble is well-documented. In a 2011 survey, the Wikimedia Foundation found that less than 10% of its contributors were women. While the reasons for the gender gap are up for debate, the practical effect of this disparity is not: content is skewed by the lack of representation from women.

Hey there User:Ibadibam.
You were kind enough to weigh in on a proposed edit I shared (as a COI) on the Dictionary.com talk page on March 3rd. I took your suggestions and edited my request and posted it in a new section on March 6th using the COI request template. Thus far, I haven't gotten any responses from Spintendo or others responding to this tool. I was wondering if you would be kind enough to review my suggested edit? We have some robust updates for the page, and if you are willing to work with me on those, I'd greatly appreciate it! I'm not in a rush - just trying to establish an episodic process for improving the page. I'm trying to help them while adhering to the rules and criteria for Wikipedia. Thank you! LeepKendall (talk) 18:06, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
Hey User:Ibadibam. I hope this finds you well!
I was hoping you could be so kind as to assist me with a proposed addition to the Dictionary.com page? It looks like Spintendo hasn't been active for about two weeks, and I sure hope all is okay with them. They are usually so active, and I THINK the only person monitoring the COI edit request forms.
Last week I posted a request to add a statement to the history section of the page and I was wondering if you could review it for me? Also, I'm wondering if we can now remove the citations banner from the top since all content now has sources attached? If source (2) in the article isn't considered reliable, I have another I will use to replace it in my next requested edit. (OR) I will also put it here if that makes it easier for you to update for me. This supports the second statement in the introduction re: Random House, etc.
Thank you so much! LeepKendall (talk) 18:21, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi User:Ibadibam:
I wanted to get your take on something. As I mentioned in another post on which you commented, we have a new article on our client Boundless Immigration. They submitted a version in 2018 and 2019, which were declined. It seems that the last decline was done without fully checking out the sources, however, this is just my impression. Before using the Articles for Submission tool, would it be kosher to first post it in my sandbox and ask you and a few editors who have assisted me in the past for feedback on notability before I submit it? If it is not ready, and there are fairly easy improvements we can make, it would be good to know that before another decline. I suspect part of the reason the article was declined the first time is because the organization was founded in 2017 (no real established history yet) and some of the language was not neutral. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this method.
Thank you LeepKendall (talk) 16:36, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

I noticed at Template_talk:Script/Hebrew#Hebrew_redirect that you wrote that ((Lang|he))
is usually used for Hebrew-language text, whereas ((Script/Hebrew)) is intended for non-Hebrew-language text in Hebrew script. How did you reach that conclusion? Debresser (talk) 22:33, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
((lang|he))
is more appropriate. Under the hood this means that we're missing the lang
attribute in the <span>
tag, and thus a great deal of the Hebrew on Wikipedia is not actually tagged as such. I never really followed through on fixing it because no one else seemed to be concerned. Indeed, for the average reader, it doesn't matter; it just makes it harder for automated processes to locate and parse Hebrew-language content on Wikipedia.

Hello,
I haven't seen any edit and/or comment by you on the "Messiah in Judaism" page up to this point. And yet, in your response here you did mention my name, and you also included yourself as seemingly agreeing with me? I was a little surprised both by your request and by your mentioning me in it. I am not sure I am understanding your precise purpose there, nor am I sure you do support my own efforts on that specific issue. I'd appreciate it if you could clarify to me how do you envision the future editing of that page and what role you intend to play in it. Thank you very much, warshy (¥¥) 18:53, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Your approach of leaving a message on my user talk page without any meaningful subject line, as if I were an anonymous IP vandal, is annoyingly passive-aggressive. I added a little "===2021===" header to the article talk page to make clear that a reply was made over ten years after the original comment. I'm sorry if my edits may have tweaked a few Unicode characters, but since the stupid encryption protocol upgrade was imposed in December 2019, I mostly can only edit Wikipedia through an indirect method which is not fully Unicode-compliant, as discussed at User_talk:Baseball_Bugs/Archive024#Ref_desks_edits. The only way for me to get around the stupid imposed encryption protocol upgrade was to buy a whole new computer, and I eventually did that -- but buying a new computer still didn't allow me to get around the stupid imposed encryption protocol upgrade when posting from home (only when using public WiFi at a different location, something which it's not practical for me to do more than a few hours a week). To get around the stupid imposed encryption protocol upgrade at home, I would have to get a completely different type of Internet service than the one I have, and this new Internet service would not work with my old computer (which I still use quite regularly, and in fact am using right at this moment).
