No strictly relevent to your bias quotes, but I can't resist quoting the standard example of sloppy SF: "He climbed to the top of the ruined Empire State building and gazed sadly at the sky, where Alpha Centauri shone, the nearest outpost of human civilization". New York, I'm told, is too far north to see Alpha Centauri. ---Isaac R 16:30, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
Hi BD, I note your interest in boreocentric bias, boreal chauvinism or hemispheric ignorance, whatever you want to call it. One area it is rife is the field of interhemispheric bird migration, where birds (notably migratory waders) which breed in high northern latitudes and migrate to Australia, South America and Africa are said to move between their breeding grounds and their 'wintering' grounds, or are said to 'winter' in the southern hemisphere. I have already edited a couple of Wikipedia articles to mitigate this, but I am sure that there are plenty of other examples around. Maias 01:43, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
One of the biggest problems you keep creating with your alleged biases is that you often say there is bias when the season and the place is mentioned. The U.S. is in the northern hemisphere. As was the Plymouth colony. You need read the context because it takes away from your good arguments when there actually is hemisphere bias. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.120.66.57 (talk) 04:28, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello B.D.Mills, as a Southern-hemisphere born and resident, I appreciate you effort against "Boreocentrism" in Wikipedia and try to eliminate seasonal references whenever possible. But I'd like to raise another point, all Wikipedia calls the (regular) Olympic Games as "Summer Olympics" which is a term I think is only used on countries that have winter (that is, snow/ice) sports, as a kind of "temperate-zone bias". The official term, "Games of the Olympiad" or maybe just "Olympic Games" (without season) are even avoided throughout Wikipedia. There is a small discussion about it on the Summer Olympics talk page but the administrators don't seem to notice it.Rsnetto74 (talk) 18:38, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
ah, I didn't really have a permanent layout in mind for Indus. I just wanted to tidy up a little to see that it didn't get too out of hand. Fell free to undo everything I did to it. I didin't know that I was actually taking it out of order. I do have one sugesstion--put the huge 88 constellation table at the very bottom of the headings. Jaberwocky6669 15:37, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)
For the good people in this project whom I have just contacted, you may reply in this section or on your user page. I am watching both locations. -- B.d.mills (T, C)
I've noticed your contact notice about it. BTW we still didn't started similar project on Slovene WP, basically because of the lack of images in local language. I've seen that pl:WP has nice images, like this one for Dorado. --xJaM 11:29, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
Hi, lists of species are normally in taxonomic order to show relationships. I've reformatted gull to avoid future confusion. jimfbleak 06:43, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 05:24, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
This is in the article space and not the category space. You know that to create a category you type 'Category:<name of category>' and not simply '<name of category>', yes? Would you like this deleted so you can create it in the proper namespace? (aeropagitica) 07:19, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Done! (aeropagitica) 07:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
New contributions from other Wikipedians can go here. Alternatively, new material can be added to the end of one of the other sections if it fits better there. -- B.D.Mills (T, C) 01:49, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
The offending sentence has been changed. Do you have any other suggestions? Please leave comments at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Kingdom Hearts II. Thanks. Axem Titanium 03:07, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Per your suggestion, I have done my best to remove every reference to seasons from the article. However, I am stuck on the following sentances, as I am not sure of a good way to remove the seasonal references:
Every other use of the words "Spring" "summer" or "autumn" has been removed from the article. Could you please tell me how to fix these sentances to remove the word "winter" from them? Please respond at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Plymouth Colony--Jayron32|talk|contribs 03:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
I have fixed your issue with this page. Do you have any further problems with the article? It was the only instance of season bias that i could find. Thanks for your review. Woodym555 18:00, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your suggestion regarding Ebola. When you feel an article needs improvement, please feel free to make those changes. Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone can edit almost any article by simply following the edit this page link at the top. The Wikipedia community encourages you to be bold in updating pages. Don't worry too much about making honest mistakes — they're likely to be found and corrected quickly. If you're not sure how editing works, check out how to edit a page, or use the sandbox to try out your editing skills. New contributors are always welcome. You don't even need to log in (although there are many reasons why you might want to).
Hi,
I noticed your addition to the Vega article concerning the future magnitude of the star. By any chance would you happen to have the name of the article and author from your reference? I know it's volume 95, but there is no contents listing available on the net (and I have long since disposed of my collection of S&T issues) so I can't properly complete the reference. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.—RJH (talk) 19:48, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Gee, would that I did make them. I'd taken a particular interest in the '09 eclipse, so I uploaded the animation myself, but the images were made by Andrew Sinclair, and I guess the image page doesn't make that terribly clear, so I'll fix that if I can.
The AOL link doesn't work anymore, but copies of the graphics are still extant on a NASA website, linked to from this page:

Hi. I'm not actually deleting the eclipse animations; I've been moving them over to the Commons (and deleting them when an equivalent one already exists). They are now located in the appropriate sub-directories of commons:Category:Solar eclipse. Please let me know if I've accidentally deleted one which you've modified, and I'll undelete it. Can I suggest that you upload the animations to the Commons in future, rather than to Wikipedia? Uploading to the Commons has several advantages: it provides a centralised repository for all of the freely-licensed images, and these images can then be used on all of the Wikipedia sites (e.g. the different language Wikipedias, Wikinews, etc.).
The infobox I've created is already a template; it's at Template:Infobox Solar eclipse. You can find usage information there if you want to add it to new articles. To create the template parameters, I used the terminology that was already in use on some of the articles in the form of tables. It's pretty easy to change that, though (and the beauty of templates is that the change applies to all of the articles). I'll change "general eclipse" to "partial eclipse" when I'm a bit more awake (unless you beat me to it).

Hello B.d.mills, and thanks for your work patrolling new changes. I am just informing you that I have deleted a page you tagged (Jonathan Worrel) under a criterion different from the one your provided, which was inappropriate or incorrect. CSD criteria are narrow and specific to protect the encyclopedia, and the process is more effective if the correct deletion rationale is supplied. Consider reviewing the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions or problems, please let me know. Thanks again! SoWhy 08:05, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello. You have a new message at Talk:House Sparrow's talk page.
Greetings B.D.Mills-
My name is Randall Livingstone, and I am a doctoral student at the University of Oregon, studying digital media and online community. I am posting to invite you to participate in my research study exploring the work of Wikipedia editors who are members of WikiProject: Countering Systemic Bias. The online survey should take 20 to 25 minutes to complete and can be found here:
https://oregon.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_cSHzuwaQovaZ6ss
Your responses will help online communication researchers like me to better understand the collaborations, challenges, and purposeful work of Wikipedia editors like you. In addition, at the end of the survey you will have the opportunity to express your interest in a follow-up online interview with the researcher.
This research project has been reviewed and approved by the Wikimedia Research Committee as well as the Office for Protection of Human Subjects at the University of Oregon. For a detailed description of the project, please visit its Meta page. This survey is voluntary, and your confidentiality will be protected. You will have the choice of using your Wikipedia User Name during the research or creating a unique pseudonym. You may skip any question you choose, and you may withdraw at any time. By completing the survey, you are providing consent to participate in the research.
If you have any questions about the study, please contact me via my Talk Page (UOJComm) or via email. My faculty advisor is Dr. Ryan Light. If you have any questions regarding your rights as a research participant, please contact the Office for Protection of Human Subjects at the University of Oregon.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Randall Livingstone School of Journalism & Communication University of Oregon UOJComm (talk) 03:40, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi, At last month's June meetup we discussed the idea of setting up a Training Course at a University of the Third Age (U3A) to be held in 2013 and named Becoming a Wikipedia editor. In order to get this course up and running we are calling for volunteers to help develop the idea, and either tutor part of the course, or provide one on one help to students in the class. All local Wikipedians are welcome to discuss this at our 11am meetup to be held this Sunday on 22 July. Please add your name to the attending list at Wikipedia:Meetup/Melbourne 23. Food and beverages are provided. Cuddy Wifter (talk) 03:20, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

I reverted your change; the relationship between seasons and perihelion is both essentilly fixed and relevant - it makes a difference in climates. It's essentially fixed because it changes on a 22,000 year cycle. In our lifetime, we will not see them shift relative to each other. Regards, Tarl N. (discuss) 01:25, 19 June 2018 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Northern-centric 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!
