I have moved ARV Super2 to User:Arrivisto/ARV Super2. Someone had tagged it for speedy deletion but I decided to be more merciful. This article needs more work before it can be put in the (Main) namespace: a) Context - it seems so obvious but you did not do it - the first sentence must include the word "aircraft"! b) What is this . Contents [hide] 1 Development history 2 Features 3 Safety record crap? You have, I assume, started with an existing article as the basis, copied it the wrong way and not finished tidying up.
Try again, I think you have the start of a decent article here. -- RHaworth 18:26, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Can I suggest that you read some how-to stuff before doing any more edits? You are making quite a few simple mistakes that can easily be avoided. It also saves us time cleaning up after you.
Look at WP:MOSNUM. Note how units of measure are presented, always with a non-breaking space between the number and unit of measure. Also it may be useful to use the ((convert)) template so that a unit of measure can be presented as different conversions - especially useful for someone used to imperial vs. metric (or vice versa).
Also look at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Footnotes. Note that references go immediately after punctuation without any spaces. Do not put the punctuation after references. It would be better to use properly formatted references using ((cite web)), ((cite book)), ((cite news)), etc., rather than use bare URLs or magazine names.
If you have any questions please ask. --Biker Biker (talk) 15:30, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:MC-30 little & large.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) 14:05, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Good idea for an article. I've been thinking about doing the Ricardo designs for ages now. Can we find some images for this? Andy Dingley (talk) 14:45, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
There are a number of sites like motorcyclespecs.co.za and motorbike-search-engine.co.uk which contain either copyrighed material without permission, or anonymous user-submitted content. Generally the consensus is they are not reliable sources. The most recent discussion about it was on July 9.
Consensus is always subject to change, and if you'd like to suggest these sites or others be considered reliable, you should start a thread at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Motorcycling, or, alternatively, Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard. My opinoin is that these sites don't meet the criteria in Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources, but I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again. Cheers! --Dennis Bratland (talk) 00:36, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
Primary sources are sometimes cited on Wikipeia, if there is truly no other way and we are extremely confident the interpretation is correct. But considering there are a dozen other ways to cite what kind of brakes a bike came with, there is no need to be reaching for primary sources here. And motorbike search engine still violates WP:COPYLINK and WP:USERGENERATED. Why not use a library instead?
Again, I encourage you to open the discussion up at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Motorcycling. Wikipedia is collaborative and it works best when you get others to collaborate with you, and perhaps other editors will even agree with you. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 16:06, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Mead & Tomkinson racing. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Hello, Arrivisto. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Offshore off-licence, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. — Brianhe (talk) 21:39, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
Hey Arrivisto :). Thanks for your additions to the Denning article - could you provide a citation for them, please? Ironholds (talk) 00:09, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
I see the RfC has been closed. Since you had already "surrendered" and conceded, of course, this was just a formality but I thought it better to wait until it closed before asking you this. In my vote, I suggested a "conspiracy theories concerning that death of Adolf Hitler" article that would be a better place for discussion of the allegations in the book Grey Wolf. At least two other commenters agreed with this idea, and I wanted to know if you were thinking about it. I really don't have the time until at least some time next year to even think about such an article. I would, however, be interested in providing feedback if you wanted to start it. Thanks. --Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 19:06, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did to Types of motorcycles, without verifying it by citing a reliable source.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Types of motorcycles, you may be blocked from editing. Dennis Bratland (talk) 22:24, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
I see you have contributed, or sought to contribute, to the page on types of motorcycles. We are currently considering reducing that page to a list.

Do you have an opinion, pro or con?ElijahBosley (talk ☞) 13:21, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
On reflection, now that passions have cooled, it seems to me that this exchange included intemperate and inappropriate language directed at the editor Arrivisto (sometimes avoiding the word 'you' results in awkward syntax). I am going to ask the editor Dennis Bratland what his views are. If it were me, I would consider an apology--but then I am not a young aggressively competitive motorcycle rider. Meantime, a cookie.

Just thought I'd mention relating to your Egli edit summary: "Remove Vincent frame" text: (Vincents were effectively frameless, using the engine as a stressed member)". Whereas you are partially - technically - correct, the common Vincent name is UFM = Upper Frame Member here with images of the oil bearing box section and RFM = Rear Frame member here and here (I couldn't quickly find a facsimile parts book depiction for the upper frame and steering head attachment)
Obviously the two frame members are/were linked by massive structural alloy castings, not directly to each other, but equally the text you changed had some degree of accuracy, as it stated Egli based his frame on "a design taken from the Vincent" (although there were many similar much earlier versions than Egli used in sprinting with oil and petrol bearing fat tubes).--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 22:54, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

As I said in my original edit, I don't think a paragraph-long description of what turned out to be a fairly minor storm in a teacup in the context of the thousand-year history of the post is really necessary in the lead of the article, but a sentence *integrated with the existing discussion of reform* might be appropriate.

I do see your work and appreciate it but this is really to send you a message as I just couldn't figure out how to get one to you. Re the Suzuki RE5 article and the source needed for the Honda rotary. See link below, half way through article, includes photo re Honda rotary. I just cannot fathom Wiki editing. Stefan did a lot of work for me when I first enlarged and cited the Suzuki RE5 article in 2009. It also appears that some of those original citations may have been jumbled. If you are having trouble locating any of them I originally listed full magazine name, article name and page number and still have all of them in print.

You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. 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. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

I found the 'other' Garside reference in the house when I was doing some racing stuff off-Wiki. I think, considering the unusual surname and BSA connection, it's too unlikely to be a co-incidence. I've put a pic for you here. Can't recall the date but probably 1966, plus or minus one. There is brief mention online with a small image here, non-public content that can just be stretched enough to see the SU car-type carb projecting from the blower.
As you know, it's already on me list, so I'll continue to keep an eye out for any more.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 18:58, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi Arrivisto, from a comment that you made earlier, I wonder if you have tried Visual Editor, yet. At the top of each section, you may see [ edit | edit source ]. I usually "edit source"; however, sometimes when I want to drop in a reference without using the templates in Wikipedia:Citation templates, I use "edit", which takes me into Visual Editor. There, at the top, is a Cite button, which gives you three options 1) to have the editor automatically convert a URL into a reference, 2) build one your manually, or 3) re-use one that is already there. I've found this to be a wonderful tool. Sometimes, it misses elements of the citation, so I go back in to fill the missing fields. If you have any difficulty, give me a ping!

Your recent editing history at Lagoon catamaran shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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 you 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.

"Taken on board."
Thank you for quality articles about airplanes and motorcycles, such as ARV Super2 (2006), Colomban MC-30 Luciole (2011), Norton RCW588 (2015) and Flathead motorcycles, for oldfashioned values, for "Good point! Taken on board." - you are an awesome Wikipedian!
You are recipient no. 2392 of Precious, a prize of QAI. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:42, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
@Precious: I'm flattered and delighted! I love editing (and sub-editing) on Wikipedia, and it's very satisfying to be recognised and appreciated. Many thanks! Arrivisto (talk) 22:49, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
Hello, Arrivisto,
Thank you for creating Splash lubrication.
I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
The references currently used in the article don't meet the requirements of WP:RS - they're blogs, or commercial websites. These should be replaced with some reliable sources - a student textbook about mechanical engineering would probably be a good start.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and prepend it with ((Re|Girth Summit))
. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~
. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Thanks for identifying the source of the material in your edit.
This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. However, for future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, adding the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved.S Philbrick(Talk) 11:55, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Lithuanian escapees requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
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. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!

UserTalk!: I'm sorry; this page was created in error. (No need for details!). Please delete it. Thanks! Arrivisto (talk) 16:00, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
An article you recently created, Piper Boats, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello, Arrivisto!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 17:22, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Guardian of the Castle requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.channel4.com/programmes/guardian-of-the-castle/episode-guide/ and https://theeurotvplace.com/2019/08/guardian-of-the-castle-croatian-political-thriller-set-to-premiere-in-the-us/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 18:02, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
Hello, Arrivisto. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Piper Boats".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 19:22, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I am a new editor
Can I ask for your help editing and submitting this draft? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Collaboration_with_Russia_During_Russo-Ukranian_War?
I believe timely publication can help nudge countries and companies away from collaborationism behaviour, hence the sense of urgency. — Preceding unsigned comment added by I0ving (talk • contribs) 14:45, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
What more do I want? Quite simply, a source. Considering that claim (that JOB voted for Brexit) is so out-of-step with the position that has elevated his fame to new levels, I think it would be incredibly helpful if we could evidence a statement like that. If, like you said, it was perhaps meant ironically, I still believe the original source is necessary as it would help in clarifying this. A statement like that - without source - could be misunderstood by somebody reading the article & perhaps used to disparage JOB. I did some brief research and could not find any evidence for your claim. As such I believe on balance it’d be unfair & potentially misleading to leave a claim like that in the article. 92.40.201.55 (talk) 16:55, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
User:Arrivisto, in 2015, you moved the Semimonocoque article to Semi-monocoque by a cut-and-paste move. However, 7 years later, some messes remain to be cleaned up. The original talk page was orphaned, so I have moved it to the correct title. Also, I've tagged the article for a history merge. I hope by now you've learned not to do cut-and-paste moves. Perhaps you should check your contribution history and see if any such moves remain that need to be cleaned up. Thanks. BilCat (talk) 08:28, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
The article Keele World Affairs has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No evidence found of any notability
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. Fram (talk) 13:14, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
