Why did you revert the edit to this page? The information in this page is incorrect. The source for this material does include numerous verifiably false statements such that a reasonable person would attach no credibility at all on that source article. If the author(s) can't get the most obvious public details about microprocessors correct, why should wikipedia trust them as a source for internal information. Over time, much of the information in that source article was removed, but it should be time to remove all the information that came from that article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Awitko (talk • contribs) 18:40, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment, but you are applying a double standard. Crispmuncher updated the article without resolving the inaccuracies and without providing the references promised more than one year ago. The only source cited in the article -- the one with the numerous novice mistakes -- does not support the claim that the early 486SX units had defective FPUs. In fact, it claims ALL 486SX units had defective FPUs. It seems like the authors are picking and choosing what they like from this article. At least please remove the claims that you cannot find reliable sources for. I can accept that you won't allow my personal knowledge to go in even though there is no one in the world that knows better how the early versions of the 486SX were tested, but at least apply the same standard to the information in the article so that the false claims about a defective FPU can be removed. I should not have to raise this issue a dozen times. You and crispmuncher can see as plain as day that there is no reliable source for that statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Awitko (talk • contribs) 20:57, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
Please see the updated 80486 SX Talk page section "Free Online Dictionary of Computing article cited as source for this article makes numerous verifiably false statements." which also refers to other talk sections related to that article. The statements in the wikipedia article have existed since 2002 and were incorporated from a foldoc article last updated in 1997. If you open the foldoc reference, it is shockingly sparse and cryptic to be the only reference relied on by the wikipedia article. Foldoc was apparently a publicly sourced dictionary so the contested information could have come from anyone, including a practical joker. The source does not identify how they know this information or where they got the information. The source also presents numerous statements that can be verified to be false and misleading. This should cause a reasonable person not to rely on the article. But the editor crispmuncher and the ip manager have gone to embarrassing lengths to defend it in the talk section.
I happen to have worked at Intel on the testing of the 486DX and 486SX so I know the speculation is false. About 15 months ago Crispmuncher made bold claims that the ultimate source of this information was Intel (as you can see from the talk section) and he promised to produce an Intel reference at the time, but did not follow up since. More recently, when I followed up on this issue, he now claims that I was the one that owed a reference and that the only way to even challenge this discredited source is to provide a contradictory source on the point of speculation. But I can't do that since Intel did not publish information about it. This is also why he cannot find an Intel reference to support his view. I think there are two reasonable ways to go: remove both scenarios because neither is supported by an Intel reference, and random websites with unsupported claims may be nothing but rumor. But I think wikipedia and foldoc have spread a lot of misinformation over the last decade and there should be some effort to actively correct that. I would prefer you explictly acknowledge that the current claims were a rumor that have no known reliable support to an Intel reference and that since its been on these two sites for as long as 13 years, unsourced statements on the web may very well have come from your article. Challenge people to provide any references to support that rumor -- you may get references to consumer magazines that speculated on it but nothing from a reliable source. And then offer an alternative explanation that I provide pointing out that it also does not have an official source. Let people at least know that there are two versions of events. Mine happens to be true. :) --Awitko (talk) 19:25, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

I have speedied the "Pazerwagen", I am inclined to leave the other two. Capitalization is likely to be mis-entered, and while you are doubtless correct about the naming convention for aeroplanes, the designation Junkers JU87B-1 returns enough hits to validate a redirect as far as I can tell.

You changed the units in the BMW 802 article from hp to PS, and then re-calculated the kW numbers, apparently based on the PS values. I would like to know what source you used to decide to make either of these changes. The source I am using is a 1946 copy of Jane's All The World's Aircraft Engines, which lists values for this engine, and every other, in hp.

Hi Denniss, i'm the guy who submitted the edit for the coppermine-T that you reverted. I can't guarantee ALL BX boards support coppermine-Ts, but there's no question at least the Abit BX-133 RAID does, so it's not accurate to say they are old-core-new-board only as is the impression in the current state. Their last released BIOS notes explicitly list support for 1GHz Celerons which are definitely Coppermine-Ts:
Also, on this forum there's an excerpt from someone who's had communication from Abit re: coppermine-T support (you have to scroll down, no direct link):
http://www.abxzone.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-6817.html
i'm pasting it here:
I think the PIII 1200mhz you guys are seeing is not a Tualatin but a faster PIII called the CopperMine-T.
Check this thread at anandtech:
Link (http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=28&threadid=512647)
There is a post from RichieZZZZ there and he posted:
you need to read HOCP they e-mailed abit about it.
<< There is and has been confusion about what exactly Tualatin CPUs will work in as we stated earlier. It seems as if Tualatin CPUs are not backwards compatible with BX or i815 chipsets. When I posted this earlier I got this mail from Don Goff that pointed us to this link which we had posted a month or so ago that states this, "Supports Intel Coppermine T CPU." about their BIOS upgrade for the ABIT BX133 RAID board. Admittedly I am a bit confused about this too so we asked ABIT what exactly the deal is and here is their response.
Kyle,
OK, I have it. It is the confusion about CopperMine CPU vs. CopperMine-T CPU vs. Tualatin CPU.
The CopperMine-T was the CPU that was the bridge between the CopperMine and Tualatin platforms. The CopperMine-T can work in BX boards, usually through a BIOS update.
The Tualatin CPU has a different pinout and simply will not work in a BX board. I have confirmed this with our R&D and FAE so have to believe that this time it is true.
Scott.
I just received (12 hours ago but I just checked my email) an email from a user which says that they are blocked and quotes the 165.21.154.111 number that you reverted on the Pentium III. The blocked list does not show them as blocked however. The email also includes the section above that starts "Kyle". They also included this (as the edit they wanted to add):
An intermediate Socket370 CPU produced by Intel as they shifted the Pentium III to the Tualatin core; e.g. the last pre-netburst/P4 Celerons released were Coppermine-Ts.
The Coppermine-T is a hybrid Tualatin-process chip but which is electrically/pinout similar to the older Coppermine chips and therefore can work on the older Socket370 boards (though a BIOS upgrade may be required to recognise the higher clock-multiple CPUs). While Tualatin-compatible boards are usually also backwards-compatible with older Socket370 CPUs, but the reverse is not true (Tualatin CPUs will not work on older Socket370 boards).
An example would be the old Abit BX-133 RAID mainboard, which despite being based on the venerable 440BX chipset, can support up to 1.1GHz Celeron CPUs at the official 100MHz FSB.
There has been some confusion between the Coppermine-T and the Tualatin: (from http://www.abxzone.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-6817.html, a post referencing a response from Abit staff)

Sow us any docs that this image is free of copyright) Denniss - I've changed the copyright notice on the Spitfire again because, as I mentioned in my note, I contacted M P HOUGHTON at the Ministry of Defence, UK, to confirm that this images is in the public domain, formerly Crown Copyright. Please see the entry to confirm the meaning of Crown copyright: any image taken by MoD personnel in the course of his duties is Crown copyright. So, the creator's (i.e. the photographer's) identity is not relevent to the copyright discussion, since the MoD has confirmed that the photo was Crown copyright.

You were pretty agressive with [Image:Granville Mall Halifax.jpg]. You changed the tag, without offering a real explanation. If, for the sake of argument, your aggressiveness was justified, let me encourage you to remember that that people you are dealing with are other volunteers. You risk alienating them, or really pissing them off, by acting high-handedly.
Over on the commons you accused someone of a copyright violation, without offering any substantiation. I got accused of a copyright violation myself, four months ago, by a very aggressive guy. It is a very unpleasant accusation. My accuser couldn't admit he made a mistake. -- Geo Swan 23:04, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

After thinking about the DFO and DND images that may be deleted soon I decided to go through all the CCG images, and determine which were under free liscenses, and go looking for more free images. My notes seem to indicate that there was an image named [[Image:Canadian Coast Guard Bell 206.jpg|thumb]] that was a free image, and another image with the almost identical name [[Image:Canadian Coast guard Bell 206.jpg|thumb]], which is noncommercial.
Now, either I made some errors, or the one my notes indicate was under a free liscense has been deleted. I'd like to get to the bottom of this. If I didn't make a mistake, then an admin deleted the wrong image. Can you tell me where I would look to see the list of removed images? If I can't find a file with the spelling I thought was from an OK image in that list I am the one who made a mistake... -- Geo Swan 06:04, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Sturmtiger 4.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the ((GFDL-self)) tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as ((Non-free fair use in|article name)) or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Thuresson 00:31, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:N805SY 2 small.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: ((TemplateName))
.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. EdwinHJ | Talk 00:25, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
I removed the build numbers from the G section.
The build numbers and acceptance numbers for the Fw190G given by RLM starting in the fall of 1943 are very very innacturate. Some of it was interdepartmental propaganda to hide the true impact of American daylight and British nightime bombing, as well as the fact that rebuilds were happening a lot more frequently.
The actual estimates for the Gs was no more than 800 aircraft.

Just like the Enzo Ferrari article has a couple of mentions of "Top lists" so can the T-34's article. There are many lists out there that don't place the Enzo anywhere close to number 1 in any aspects, does that mean that those pieces of information (eg. Sports Car International's ranking) don't belong there?
Military Channel gave a very good criteria for their ranking, and has a reference online as well. It is valid and is worthy to note. Don't delete that paragraph again please.

Hi, Thanks for updating the O/D details on some of the aircraft.
It seems there is some discrepancy between airbus documents.
I had used 1974 to 2005 Deliveries to compile the Airbus Deliveries and Orders set of tables.
But if you compare the original document, and indeed, my tables with the orders and deliveries document you used up to may 2005 there are some descrepancy's!
Damn Airbus
I suppose i know which would be right, but, why would the other document be so far out on some numbers? (maybe with the A310, cancelled or changed orders....)

Would you please stop removing valid information from this article? I can see no reason why the reference to Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory should be omitted; it does not fall under any of the criteria on WP:NOT and although you may not feel that it is important, that is not grounds for removing it from the article. I might agree if it had been included indiscriminately in the main body of the article, but it is neither an irrelevance nor an unverifiable piece of information and is doing no harm under the heading 'Trivia'.

Hi Denniss, I didn't care much for the lego thing either. Some guy put it there. I thought whatever its fine with me, our trivia could use some new material. So I put a link to it. Did you see the barnstar I gave you? Hope you dont mind me puting it on your userpage and not talk page. Since you live in Germany, I have a question to ask you. I am doing a paper on wind power. I know Germany is very engaged in wind energy. I want to know, are people there aware of wind energy becoming very common in Germany or not? The research I have been doing leads me to believe that the country is so pro wind energy that people that oppose it like some farmers or landowners are not heard from. Schleswig-Holstein is where most of the wind turbines are being erected. This state feels it is becoming the wind factory for germany and too many turbines are put here while the electricity is generated for other places. Is this true? Is there a strong sense for green energy in Germany? Thanks--Bangabalunga 05:50, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello Denniss We noticed you removed our Hubble copyright tag. On the copyright page you wrote: "remove Template:PD-Hubble; as soon as ESA is involved it becomes noncommercial." I think there must be a mistunderstanding. We have carefully crafted the Hubble copyright tag to comply with all the agreements between NASA and ESA (called Memorandum of Understandings) on the Hubble project. Please talk me if you disagree and let me know where you think the problem is. For now I have reverted your deletion of the tag so that our work can continue.

Hello, I have worked a little on the website and I have made this page : http://www.aircraft-list.com/copyright.html and fix the "flas as inappropriate" script. Is now all better? Thank you very much Take care Sorin
The sentance was added by ip 209.130.203.190 dec 21 2006 and today it is 30jan 2007 so a whole month has gone by without any sources. I am certain that he/she has no sources, and since there are no sources then it can be removed, please do not revert me since the statment which is not "a nice story" does have sources.
This page has lots of info about the tank

I need some help here. One editor has constantly (12 times under his user name, perhaps many others with an IP address only, since 30 January 2007) reverted the introductory paragraph to read that the Gloster Meteor was the first operational jet fighter. Now there may be compelling arguments for this claim, however, this editor has taken to using the article and the Me 262 article as the forum for his argument rather than taking it to the discussion pages. Since there is no consensus from other editors, I believe that the most effective path would be to have bonafide sources and provide them in the discussion page. From a cursory observation of the same editor's modus operandi, he has also been involved in a similar dispute on the de Havilland Comet article where again he has championed a very nationalist viewpoint which has been characterized as "POV." What can be done? Is there a way to block his constant reversions? Bzuk 22:36, 10 February 2007 (UTC).
I have blocked User:Michael Shrimpton for 24 hours for violating the 3RR, and have outlined my position on his talk page. As I have stated there, I am offering the following advice: for those involved in this dispute, try not to make significant edits to the Messerschmitt Me 262, De Havilland Comet, or Gloster Meteor articles. Stick to minor edits, and include with each edit a reference for the information you are changing or adding. One of the most important policies of Wikipedia is Wikipedia:Verifiability, which states "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. "Verifiable" in this context means that any reader should be able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source."
I think that everyone involved needs to take a step back from these articles for a moment, take a deep breath, and make sure that what they are doing is correct. Do not continue to revert each others edits or further action will be required. -Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 03:25, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Check the talkpage. Check User_talk:Starfury. Your changes have been reverted. I (the IP you claim doesnt know what theyre talking about) will be reporting that image as a copyright infringement. Any other images not CC2 which go in its place will also be reported as such- an example of the vehicle exists preserved in the Kubinka museum.
When new information comes to light which casts serious doubt on the rationale for an image you really should try to take it more seriously. Why not try to get in touch with the original uploader to find out why that rationale is justified? (hasn't been seen since April 2005) 'Starfury' may also be able to explain why that image was deleted from wiki.de. I suspect because its a copyvio making the rationale "nonsense" and not the rights of the person with copyright. Fluffy999 12:33, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Please do not add articles to this major cat if they are already included via specific subcats by location like M/S Estonia (in Category:Shipwrecks in the Baltic Sea). Please also consider using these subcats instead of the major cat. --Denniss 15:28, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Articles should not usually be in both a category and its subcategory. For example Golden Gate Bridge is in Category:Suspension bridges, so it should not also be in Category:Bridges. However there are occasions when this guideline can and should be ignored. For example, Robert Duvall is in Category:Film actors as well as its subcategory Category:Best Actor Academy Award winners. See #5 for another exception. For more about this see Wikipedia:Categorization and subcategories
Can you explain why you removed Template:Schutzstaffel from the Hauptamt Volksdeutsche Mittelstelle. I don't know much about the SS so I can readily believe that I was fooled by somebody else's ignorance or mischief. However, I do think it would be useful to have a single template which would be used on all SS-related articles. Do you agree? If so, what would you suggest such a template should contain?

Why did you deleted the part about West Germany usage of Leopard I & II tanks? --SuperTank17 09:22, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi Denniss,
I see you are pretty avid in keeping the NX 2001 to the list of Geode NX processors. I would suggest that this is a wrong assumption, based on the following facts:
There are Geodes on the market which are sold as Geode NX 2001, but they appear to be OEM Athlon XP 2200+ "Thoroughbred" processors (and are recognized as such in motherboards), unlike the other Geode NX which are based on Athlon XP-M processors. AMD does not supply any reference to this processor on its public web site. Though part number ANXA2001FKC3D is suggested, it doesn't appear in AMD's Geode datasheets and a Quantispeed rating ending in "1" is never used in any of AMD's numbering schemes. The part number does make sense (see also AMD Geode datasheet):
ANX = AMD Athlon-based Geode Solution A = TDP 2001 = Model Number F = OPGA Package K = 1.65V Vcore C = 266 FSB (133 MHz) 3 = 256 kb L2 Cache F = Max. Die Temperature 95C Lead Reduced
But then again, it doesn't, because a 1.65V Vcore is way too high for mobile/low power use. Typically, a Thoroughbred core @1.65V would consume 60W or more power. Unless a Vcore/multiplier switching is at play, of course.
Specifications of the "AMD Geode NX 2001" as advertised: Clock Speed: 1.8 GHz, 1.65 Volts core operating voltage. There are no references found for low power operation, nor any figures for power consumption.
I don't think AMD is approving the sales at all, I think this is just a marketing trick to get rid of surplus stock Athlon XP processors, meant for the embedded CPU market. Unless someone can provide solid proof of power figures (25W/40W, I have only read one reference at a German forum, the sales ads do not give power figures), I would think it is just a relabeled desktop processor, or a mobile "desktop replacement" processor.
May I suggest a separate header where the existence of the NX 2001 is explained? Please do notice that lots of people use Wikipedia for reference and adding false/inaccurate information is something we should be careful of.

here is the newspaper clipping from singapore regarding the 2nd batch of leopard tank.
singapore has a habit of ordering weapons systems in batches... sometimes in close timings to misled others as to its actual purchase numbers...
note that other then the 36 second batch purchase... "a few more" spare tank is also mentioned.. which seems to indicate a total of 102 tank plus 30 spare tank(wonder if it still spare, given the need to order additional tank on top of the 1st purchase) plus "afew more" spare tank in batch 2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.15.3.254 (talk) 22:35, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Do not revert the copyright status of the images which have been loaded in to the Wiki Common which I have spent converting from the website WWII in Color. These images fail to cite any source of the image or the copyright status. As indicated on the website, unless a copyright status is listed--these images are not for use for public domain.
I saw that there was an old template used for licensing for the use of the image tamptles for WWII in Color website but this template is now obsolete and is no longer valid. It is fair to say that at least some of the images were indeed copyrighted from various websites and the copyright righted
FAQ for WWII in Color
Most of the images stored on ww2incolor.com were collected from government sources or submitted by their respective owners. This does not mean that all images on this site are in the public domain. The majority of the images, unfortunately, have an unknown copyright status and therefore it is recommended that you do not distribute or copy them for any commercial purposes unless they are specifically stated to be in the public domain (some images have a “public domain” notice in their captions).
Most of the images in the gallery are products of government works and therefore are required to be in the public domain by copyright law. However, some of the images were photographed by private individuals, media or other government entities (such as the United Kingdom) that do not fall under public domain law.

He has been systematically deleting all the information on causualty and strength figures I have put into many articles. He has done this on the history of the Luftwaffe page and the Battle of Stalingrad page as well. I think your ast revert on the Moscow page of "Thisterms" was just "Wrongmonth55" in disguise.

Dear Denniss,
I am a graduate research assistant at the Center for History and New Media at George Mason University. In recent years we have produced a number of online archives such as The September 11 Digital Archive (http://911digitalarchive.org/) and the Hurricane Digital Memory Bank (http://www.hurricanearchive.org/). Our team is currently gathering digital documents related to Mozilla products for the Mozilla Digital Memory Bank (http://mozillamemory.org), and we are in the process of interviewing some of the lead members, former and present, of the Mozilla community.
I recently found your Mozilla/Firefox-related contributions located at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Mozilla_Firefox. Given your involvement with Mozilla, we think your voice would be an excellent addition to the archive. If you are interested in having your perspectives added to the record, we can conduct the interview via Skype, instant messenger, or email—whichever method might fit your schedule and preferences best.
I have included below the first three questions of the interview in order to give you a sense of the process. For examples of completed interviews, please feel free to examine the interviews section (http://mozillamemory.org/browse.php?cat=interview) of our archive.
If you are interested in contributing your perspectives on the Mozilla community and its products, you can reach me by e-mail at gcheong@gmu.edu. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions regarding the interview process or the Mozilla Digital Memory Bank.
Thank you for your time and attention.

Hi. Apologies for the inconvenience but I have reverted your changes to DDR SDRAM article. The only reason for this was down to the content you deleted cited sources, whereas the reasons for your deletion did not.

None of Gigabyte, Talk:Gigabyte, Gibibyte, or Talk:Gibibyte articles state the *iB versions should be used within Wikipedia as a standard. Nor am I aware of the IEEE or ACM recommending *iB verbage.

The Ro 80 wasnt`t just a commercial failure, it was a commercial disaster leading to the demise of NSU and the stigmatization of Wankel technology, wich only a few other makers dared to use after NSU, with Citröen also failing in succeeding with the GS Birotor. The only reason it continued to be produced was that there was no money to develop any new models; it was produced in very small numbers as total production amounted to little more than 37,000 examples in ten years: about 3,700 a year is a poor achievement for a car of this segment and price. Anyway, sales numbers shouldn't be the only standard for measuring a model's success: this car was a commercial failure because of its neccesarily generous warranty policy and bad reputation, leading NSU to bankruptcy.

I notice that you reverted me inserting a tag on the above article requesting citations for it being the first "jet fighter". This is how I would treat any other important fact on Wikipedia that lacks a reference. I do not wish to enter an edit war on this, and hold no partisan views on the matter. However, if this is a fact, it needs to be verified in the body of the article. It is not truth but verifiability which is key - that's my understanding of Wikipedia. If it is a fact, there will be many reliable references for it. All I ask is that they are added in the article. It should not be up to the reader to trawl a talk page and wade through various editors' personal arguments and opinions to establish if something is fact or fiction.

Hey,
I wrote my reasoning for the founding of a task force for tanks on the Military History WikiProject, which you can read here. I guess its success is dependant on membership, and given that you have edited the Leopard 2 and Leopard 2E articles I wanted to extend an invitation, since I thought you'd be interested. The task force wouldn't require editors that do 'heavy edits' - as in, entire articles - and, in fact, I would be looking more for active copy editors that do minor edits to maintain the quality of the article - but, really anything is fine. What I'm looking for is more or less detailed in that message I left on the WikiProject talk page (previously linked above). If you're interested it would be great if you could mention it there, and if not that's fine - but, it's worth a try. ;) Regardless, thanks for your time and patience!

On reviewing Boeing's announcement, I agree with your characterization of the Arik Air announcement (Arik Air's Wikipedia page lists the 747-8 as being ordered, but I did not write anything on that page). I would appreciate your correcting or improving text rather than simply reverting. Reverting is appropriate if somebody screws up a page, and is generally considered rudeness otherwise. It takes time and effort to put in sourced material, and if there is an error in interpreting said material, it is more appropriate (and thoughtful) to write the correction yourself rather than simply erasing someone else's work. Please try to be more considerate.Raryel (talk) 15:00, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

I apologize for undoing your edit, but I found it a bit overwhelming. This is especially true for changing referenced facts with unreferenced facts (like production numbers - claiming that they are wrong, but not adding any evidence, doesn't really help the article) and changing unit conversions with incorrect unit conversions (24 metric tonnes is not 39 tons). Before editing, can you please discuss these changes on the talk page? Perhaps, add some references to these claims? Thanks. JonCatalán (talk) 22:56, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
Hello, I wonder why you are against the inclusion of AMD's announced Athlon X2 7550 and 7750 CPUs. A reference is published at this website. http://en.expreview.com/2008/10/15/kuma-to-become-athlon-x2-75507750.html The section that I put them in specifically states that it "contains information about scheduled or expected future computer chips". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yuckhil (talk • contribs) 09:42, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Your recent revert was not correct because the case has been moved to the archive, for proof of this view this page Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User conduct/Archive and search for "Greg". The actual date of the move to the archive is shown in this diff. This means any edits to add content to the case page after that date are made to an archived page, which is wrong. Since your edit was not correct I have reverted you to make the page correctly reflect the version of the page at the time the case was moved to the archive. The edits Thunderbird2 has tried to make are to an archived case page, that is why his edits have been reverted because editing case pages to add extra misleading content after they have been closed is not the done thing. The archive template was then added because I noticed that it was missing and because indeed the page is in the archive and closed. The archive template is there now to serve as a warning that editing the page to add content after it has been closed should not be done. In future if you want to follow correct procedure on similar case pages then the correct action would be to revert to the date the page was archived and then place an archive template. In this specific case this means that you should have also reverted Thunderbird2's changes and placed an archive tag. Think about it for a second, when case pages are moved to the archive they are closed and if someone was allowed to come along months afterwards and then continue to edit old closed case pages then that means the person is presenting a false misleading picture of what has happened. So, in summary, do not allow Thunderbird2 to violate correct procedure by replacing his incorrectly added text. In short, do not re-revert because that is the incorrect thing to do.

Nach einer vierjährigen Beschäftigung im Vorstand der 1922 neu gegründeten MWM gründete L'Orange im Jahr 1926 die Firma „Prosper L'Orange Ingenieur-Büro“ in Stuttgart. 1927 übernahm Prosper L'Orange die Firma „REF-Apparatebau“ in Feuerbach bei Stuttgart, die jedoch 1932 Konkurs anmelden musste. 1933 wurde das Unternehmen als „L'Orange Motorzubehör GmbH“ neu gegründet, deren Nachfolgefirma L'Orange GmbH heute Weltmarktführer bei Einspritztechnik für 4-Takt-Großmotoren ist. Außer mit der Diesel-Einspritzung beschäftigte sich das Unternehmen auch mit der Benzin-Einspritzung.

The "Historical Comparisons" section is intended to be a neutral report on what has become a frequent historical comparison between the bombing of Gaza, and that of Guernica. It attempts to provide factual information regarding the reasons cited for the comparison, along with an externally verifiable metric for its prevalence, and the best estimates available on the number of casualties sustained by each side (with separate figures for combatants and non-combatants).
The "Historical Comparisons" section was placed along with the Bombing of Dresden 70th Anniversary passage in an effort to group together material relating to the aerial bombing of other densely populated cities (such as Hiroshima and Dresden). Historical analogies are always somewhat problematic. However, that does not prevent them from being made or cited by scholars, news organizations, or the general public. When they become a part of the global discussion, they acquire relevance.
As of 16 January 2009, the google keyword search combination "Hiroshima" and "Guernica" yields 49,000 pages, which is only about 1/3 of the "Gaza" and "Guernica" combination. The Bombing of Guernica article makes reference to deputies from Hiroshima. Presumably, the deputies were in attendance because there is a common perception that both cities suffered heavy losses of civilian life. Objectively, the same connection is made even more strongly with Gaza (as the 144,000 pages returned attest).
Wikipedia's focus on content policy is:
When you find a passage in an article that you find is biased or inaccurate, improve it if you can. If that is not easily possible, and you disagree with a point of view expressed in an article, don't just delete it. Rather, balance it with what you think is neutral. Note that unreferenced text may be tagged or removed because of our policy on Verifiability.
Given Wikipedia's stated bias towards the inclusion of material, I've restored "Historical Comparisons". Before further action is taken, I'd appreciate hearing from you, and hope to reach a clearer understanding of your objection. I'd be happy to discuss ways in which you think this section could be improved. As a last resort, we could make a formal request for mediation , but I remain optimistic we can resolve things ourselves.
Sincerely,
JonDePlume (talk) 23:17, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
After referencing Wikipedia policy regarding focusing on content and describing the rationale behind the "Historical Comparisons" section at some length, my hope was that we could resolve this issue without the need for mediation. That hope has dimmed a bit with the latest revert, but perhaps we can still work this through. There are some complex issues here, and I think we may both stand to gain something by deepening our understanding of Wikipedia's policies and each other.
It appears to me that you regard the mere inclusion of well-referenced and related material as political, while censoring it as non-political. The relevance of this section has been justified using an objective metric, but no grounds have been given for censoring it. Adopt this perspective for a moment, and I'll try to adopt yours if you tell me what it is beyond a 1-line condemnation. Ground your assessment in something. Show me what words you think could be chosen differently to keep the focus on content, not views. Do you think that the historical comparison isn't content at all? If not, why not when other aftermath-oriented content is? Where is the dividing line and why?
From my reading of Wikipedia's guidelines, the goal is to work together and achieve balance by way of inclusion (subject to the constraints of verifiability). I'm supposing you've read this policy as well, so I'm left to wonder if you've decided to ignore it, or if we have a different understanding of it, as applied here. Assuming it's the latter, on what grounds have you repeatedly deleted the "Historical Comparisons" section?
Help me understand how you perceive the removal of "Historical Comparisons" as deleting political speech rather than politically censoring well-referenced and objectively related content.
Sincerely,
JonDePlume (talk) 15:35, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi Denniss. About the edit to Pz 38(t)...
Converting PS to “horsepower” is a bit silly. PS means horsepower. If you want to convert it, then you must specify what you are converting it to: metric horsepower, British horsepower, or what?
Secondly the significant figures are incorrect. You can't convert 125 PS to 123.3 hp or 91.9 kW, because you are claiming more precision than the original figure has (unless the original was “125.0 PS”). Since PS and British horsepower vary by about 1%, and horsepower is variable, depending on the individual vehicle, fuel quality, engine tune, etc., it's safe to assume that the original figure is rounded to the nearest 5 PS. There's not much point in putting anything other than 125 hp, but I suppose one could defend a conversion rounded to 123.
Power-to-weight ratios are always calculated in hp/t, so they can be compared. There's no point in using different units in one article. And again, unless you have the power accurate to .01 horsepower and the weight accurate to the nearest kilo, you can't cite four significant figures – we usually round to the nearest 1 hp/t. —Michael Z. 2009-02-06 17:52 z

Mustafa Barghouthi, Secretary General of the Palestinian National Initiative published paper making a direct historical comparison of Operation Cast Lead to the bombing of Guernica. The material in this section relating to war crimes is well annotated with footnotes, and involves well-known public figures, NGOs, and news organizations. If you wish to have a section that rebuts various historical comparisons (or shows different perspectives on them) please do so. It is counter to Wikipedia's guidelines to merely censor material based on personal POV.

Hello,
You haven't edited the article in question, but since you are or have been actively involved in the IEC prefix discussion (sorry to remind you of it if you, like me, got tired of the uncivil discussion and wanted to have nothing to do with the issue anymore), I invite you to consider the nomination for deletion of the article JEDEC memory standards, which I believe can fairly be said to have been created only as a hammer for the discussion.
I beg you to try to keep your sentiments about the actual IEC prefix on Wikipedia question out of the deletion discussion and consider the merits of the deletion proposal, namely, notability in the Wikipedia sense (WP:N), regardless of which units you believe Wikipedia should use.

There is absolutely nothing either "irrelevant" or "fictional" about Microsoft Flight Simulator. It is the industry-leading simulator, used by real-world pilots to train.

I just wanted to let you know that I swapped the Nashorn back under tank destroyers. I know that the German vehicle designation only indicates it to be a self-propelled gun, but it was, like the Marder series, explicitly an improvised tank destroyer, meant to destroy (primarily Soviet) tanks. This contrasts with weapons like the Hummel, which was of course was meant as a self-propelled gun (a mobile artillery piece to support the advancing army). The Nashorn article, I'd note, immediately sets forth that the vehicle was a tank destroyer, which accurately describes its mission. After all, everyone would agree that the Ferdinand was a tank destroyer, but its official designation was Sturmgeschutz. Sacxpert (talk) 05:28, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi Denniss; I'm not particularly familiar with German WWII aircraft and noticed you changed the designation format in several places in the Bf 109 article; e.g. "Bf 109G-2" to "Bf 109 G-2" (added space), but left "Bf 109G" as it was (no space) rather than changing it to "Bf 109 G".

No serious dispute on this matter. It's really a shame! That Rotterdam's destruction was caused by many bombs scattered all over the square-mile of its area is a fact. I stick to my wording: It's Hooton that is disagreeing and he should come up with sources. The number and spreading of the bombs, in other words the deliberate carpet bombing, is already sufficiently covered in the article, with references. From reliable sources. It is a fact, like the Bombing of Guernica, like the bombing of Warsaw. Wikipedia should not present a dispute as if a view held by a small minority deserved as much attention overall as the majority view. Views that are held by a tiny minority should not be represented except in articles devoted to those views. To give undue weight to the view of a significant minority, or to include that of a tiny minority, might be misleading as to the shape of the dispute.

Per this passage in Front-side bus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front-side_bus:
The bandwidth or maximum theoretical throughput of the front side bus is determined by the product of the width of its data path, its clock frequency (cycles per second) and the number of data transfers it performs per clock cycle. For example, a 64-bit (8-byte) wide FSB operating at a frequency of 100 MHz that performs 4 transfers per cycle has a bandwidth of 1600 megabytes per second (MB/s).
That looks like 8 * 100 * 4 = 3200. You reverted it from 3200 back to 1600. How did you arrive at 1600?

Hi Denniss, why did you undo my contribution to the Nebelwerfer article? [12] The source never suggests "Smoke Launcher" so you are tampering with the sources. Secondly non-German speakers will be misguided in that the German word "Nebel" means 'smoke', that's why I added the literally stuff. It's like the word 'space shuttle' - a dictionary would translate it to Raumfähre like dict.leo translated Nebelwerfer to 'Smoke mortar' but literally it means Weltraumschütze like Nebelwerfer is 'fog thrower'.
Wikipedians have the right to know that A) Nebel was a codename for chemischen Waffen, B) Nebelwerfer should be translated to 'smoke mortar' and C) Nebel is German for fog and mist. The Talk:Nebelwerfer is about translation OR literally 'fog thrower' and not appropriate to me since I recognize both. By the way is -werfer not strictly 'mortar' since Flammenwerfer is a flamethrower and not a 'flame mortar'!
I'm afraid that Americans will say "Nebel is German for smoke because Nebelwerfer is "smoke mortar"". Why must the readers not learn that Nebel isn't 'smoke' in German? --Regards, Necessary Evil (talk) 13:53, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

It was a mistake for you to recently undo my edit. The German & Soviet ballistic tests were very different. The Soviet test had the target tank directly facing the vector of the incoming shell. The German tests (as mentioned by the Jentz reference page 127) had the target tank turned 30 degrees to the vector of the incoming shell; this turning of the tank creates an additional angle to the incoming shell so the surface is much more resistant to penetration. That is why the Soviet tests resulted in frontal glacis penetration of the Panther and the German tests did not. The German method of turning the tank 30 degrees is a very important and overlooked difference in the two tests, which is why the Soviet & German tests gave different results. ```` —Preceding unsigned comment added by Drbig1 (talk • contribs) 19:13, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

There is a source given, but the list does not claim to be tied to the date of that (it does not say "As of 2008 [...]"), and also I don't see why you want to have NWA and Delta, since all the Delta 747s are ex-NWA aircraft, if I recall correctly, so I'd be interested to see if the source lists both. (I don't have a copy.) The section of the article is, after all, entitled, "Current operators", so how can you justify a non-existent airline to be "current"?

Hello Denniss, Do you know anything about the German V-1 attacks on Great Britain.If so could you please tell me about it. (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 23:03, 9 May 2010 (UTC).
Can you please explain why you reverted the edits I made to Bombing of Guernica? Your edit summary notes only "removed content", however there is no rule against removal of content if there is a reason why (I thought the edit summary explained the reason why clearly enough). In this case ([23]), the removed content was an editorial—basically, an editor using the article to argue with the source. If you have another reason to disagree with the edit or that you reverted it, I'll be happy to discuss the issue with you, but please don't revert edits just on the basis that content was removed. That's called editing. 75.71.46.105 (talk) 13:47, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
Just curious, if I replace IEC units w/ the recommended WP:COMPUNITS, using a literal power of 1024, e.g. 10243, are you going to revert it because you prefer Gibs to GBs? If so, I won't bother. Thanks. Jeberle (talk) 16:11, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
"V2 was not part of the official designation, just designates it as second prototype of the Panzerkampfwagen VIII"
And you decide that upon the data from the article, right!
Well, what you think is the official designation of that variant since they gave it the additional designation "V2". This is not like the "Maus" which is not officially part of the designation. Here the "V2" is a part of the official designation. Try to look beyond the data from Wiki! Oblivion Lost (talk) 10:52, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
See first the thing i wrote at the previous section (up)!
I dont think many people are aware of the fact that since only one unit (variant) was build the correct name must be in full details. That means that if there were more than one variants, the correct name would have been : "Panzerkampfwagen VIII", but since we have only one variant built at all (and that variant is not the first try), the correct name should be "Panzerkampfwagen VIII "something"", if there was a "something" at all, as you specified!

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Horten Ho 229, without resolving the problem that the template refers to may be considered vandalism.

Why did you revert the edits that I did to Windows 2000 and Windows XP (in regards to service Pack 2)? I will get someone to revert it back as it almost midnight here. You should know that Windows 2000 and Windows XP SP2 are no longer supported as of 13 July 2010 not the 14th.

The article in question has almost the exact same sections as Avira. The only thing Avira makes is security software, so isn't having both article rather redundant? There is very little additional information in Avira Security Software, and perhaps that info. can be added to Avira, once it is deleted. Please leave a message either here, on the Avira Security Software Article, or on my talk responding. Thanks. PlantRunner (talk) 19:31, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Disrespect is responded to with disrespect. If Geoff B wants respect he should earn it instead of systematically pissing off everybody he comes in contact with judging by his user and talk page history. I won't tolerate his nonsense spewing over elsewhere so don't edit my edits on my user or talk page. Until that respect magically appears from thin air, you can motion to ban my IP or go away and deal with the article in question, which I encourage. The article is a joke and should not exist.67.246.185.40 (talk) 18:20, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi Denniss, the Arc Trainer page is written in an objective and unbiased style. This machine is found in many gyms and most likely you will find it in your local gym as well therefore I think it deserves to be in a wiki page. All the statements there are technical referenced facts and not advertisements. Please reconsider your decision and please remove the advertisement warning. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Serfit (talk • contribs) 14:48, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi Denniss, I saw this image in the article about Leopards in the English wikipedia with the caption titled "Indian leopard (Panthera pardus fusca)". But since you did not provide any info when you initially uploaded this file, I would just like to know where you took this photo of the leopard. I just wonder whether this is really an Indian leopard. Looking forward to your reply. -- BhagyaMani (talk) 10:34, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
Du bist ja einer der schon lange dabei ist. Nun das Problem besteht bei der Liste der Deutschen Zeitungen (Tabelle) darin, dass diese Tabelle keine Weblinks und keine Facebook-Links hat. Nun schau Dir mal meine Tabelle der Deutschen Zeitungen Deutschland Oesterreich Schweiz List of Newspapers in Germany genau an, probiere es einfach mal, Du wirst feststellen, dass das mit Websitelinks und Facebookslinks viel einfacher ist (nur klicken). Die Deutschen Zeitungen so zu tabellisieren mit Links hat mehrere Stunden gedauert. Ehrlich verstehe ich nicht wieso Du u.a. dies rueckgaengig gemacht haben. Ist doch einfach besser. Na ja zu mindestens habe ich jetzt dort eine Linktabelle die meinen Erwartungen an dieser Sache entspricht. Meine Aenderungen (englisch ) sind eine Auswahl der wichtigsten Links von Deutschen Zeitungen, die Deutsche Seite der Zeitungen in Deutschland de.wikipedia.org mit Weblinks und Facebooklinks zu versehen, ist mir zu aufwendig (150 Zeitungen + x).

Hello,
You undid my revision 398865030 to the A350 article without providing any comments.
My edit was done to clarify possibly misleading text that could lead one to believe that 10 abreast on the 777 is not as feasible as it is on the A350.
Could you possibly offer some clarification?
Thanks. 99.88.51.112 (talk)

I properly annotated the image properties just like they annotated for the image for the L.A.

Denniss, do you know anyone who could translate a couple of German WP articles into English, with English sources? The articles are de:MAN Turbo and de:MAN Diesel & Turbo. I want to create an aeroengine navbox for MAN Turbo, but realized we don't have an article on the company, and not even a section in one of the other MAN articles. I had originally considered moveing MAN Diesel to MAN Diesel & Turbo, and updating it,. but having looked at the German articles, I think separate articles could exist. If not, we need to move it back to MAN Diesel & Turbo, and update the articel with the new company's info,a nd info about MAN Turbo. Thanks for any help you can provide. - BilCat (talk) 04:13, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
Hello, recently you delete the title image of the article Baluch people. Please do a research on these people and in some cases those linked articles need some corrections or need to be written. Also please do a research on the region, it is at war at the moment and the people are a minority.

Dear Dennis, hope you are good. I appreciate your concerns over the title image of the article Baloch people. But I want to bring to your knowledge that those images greatly undermined the article that is why I had to upload a different one. But now I have removed both to keep the conflict neutral till I reach a solution. Please consider the current situation of the geography these people live in when looking at the issue.

Why do you undo my article and reset it to yours? The DirectX logo in png was replaced to an svg-image by me only. SVG images are better cause they take lesser storage and are indefinitley scalable. And when you reset my version because there appeared over the svg "||Image:" and under it "64px||" or something like that, I don't know why. I had tried many and searched about that in commons, wikipedia and the internet, but didn't find any solution for it.

Thank you for uploading File:Fw189 1.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4.
