I noticed that you were listing for discussion on en wiki possible unfree images. Commons is much more strict on what is allowed and it is usually more straight-forward to tag the image as a copyvio on its commons page instead of tagging the pass-through en wiki page as you are doing. See Commons:User talk:BriannaBoyceLuv4 messages and links to see what was done. Geraldo Perez (talk) 02:15, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
My edit restored content removed by another, it did not actually delete content. It only appeared to due to the way the content was removed (hidden) by another editor "closing" the section. The section consisted solely of questioning the sources and neutrality of the article and a suggestion to make it more in line with Wikipedia guidelines on neutrality and the use of reliable sources.
I apologize if I didn't use the right procedure, perhaps you could clarify. Thank You, Lockean One (talk) 07:41, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
Apologies Josh, if that external link is not appropriate for the subject, Human Skin. Wish I had a chance to give wiki readers more insights and information about oily skin.

Josh, this is in response to the LP talk page. I have been receiving numerous threatening messages based off the LP article lately. I am to understand that the talk page specifically showing my name on Google and Yahoo. I have not been an active user since 2008 and I attempted to remove my name from the page a short while ago. I have submitted a name change request in the interim to dissolve any reference to my real name on this site. Is there any specific editing pointers that you could provide to remove my name from the LP talk page without inciting a riot on Wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tom Fearer(talk • contribs) 01:07, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your help. My problem was forwarded up to an administrator. I'm hoping the name change will at the very least not leave such a large trail of bread crumbs so to speak. I'd tried to go the original avenue of just removing my name, but I'm obviously not familiar with the site rules in great detail and it led to this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tom Fearer (talk • contribs) 01:42, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
Josh, I am 74.101.50.76 and LennySkutnik. Also the subject of George Malley (athlete).
I am also the moderator of a track and field related website and have had problems with the two malicious trolls, Hardloop and Jamin12345 who created this Wikipedia entry as a means to harass me. If you will note both of their contributor IDs were created today. Either ban them from further edits are take the wiki entry down completely.

I can't tell if this is vandalism or just a content dispute; if there's clear evidence now or even later on, just post to my talk page; same with this one. Dreadstar ☥ 07:10, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
Hi Josh,
The impact of public assemblies on the study of argumentation (specifically of elenchos) is a commonplace among classical scholars and ought to be included. Or so I believe. Do you have a justification for deleting it? Also, your deletion was closely followed by one from 80.89.84.200, and so it might be useful to see that contributor's talk page, where I've pointed out a few more things about related passges. Please feel free to write to me on talk. Many thanks. Oliveristhingone (talk) 19:29, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
Hi Josh,
May I trouble you again with another question about the same page?
It appears that 80.89.84.200 has returned to delete all the same passages once again, though this time for a different reason. In a previous edit from the same IP address, the contributor wrote in the edit summary, "conjecture, not fact." I left a post on the contributor's user-talk page (for that IP address) to explain that the deleted material was indeed factual and to ask politely for a justification of the deletions. But so far I've got no response from the contributor. And now the reason given in the new edit summary for the renewed deletions is that the deleted material is "generally unhelpful." No other explanation.
I also notice that the first edit on the page from 80.89.84.200 came less than a minute before the one from "Dick P. Nuss" (since blocked), and that 80.89.84.200 also made edits shortly after the work of "Nuss." I realize that the contributor is entitled to anonymity, but I can't help asking myself whether it's just the same contributor appearing in different guises.
I wonder if I may ask your advice. I'm not sure how to proceed from here, because I have no experience with these kinds of difficulties. I've tried to start a discussion, but so far without luck. And I don't want merely to generate an edit war. The deleted materials are factual and relevant, and ought to be available to readers. You have much experience; could I ask what course of action you would suggest. Many thanks. Oliveristhingone (talk) 22:12, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
Hi Josh, apologies, I am trying to post a balanced/counter argument to generalized terms that are used in that paragraph. The generalised terms, especially “integral part of ” denotes that this is the normal, when infact it is the reverse and such practices are not advocated. The source is from Google Scholar and has 36 citations. Here, we are talking about a religious and philosophical practice and a core to that practice is as I write. Please would you kindly inform me how to include this counter argument. In the least please request a reference for what is currently being included in that paragraph and to re-word so it does not make generalised statements or please request that paragraph deleted as it may easily lead to misinformation. Thank you for your help, time and consideration to this request. (Tdmdb (talk) 00:59, 16 December 2013 (UTC))
I think the article is severely biased against Chinese ruling party. It contained so much speculation without credible evidence, and it missed out many important facts. All I did was to add certain facts backed by reference I believe reliable. For instance, there is well-documented study by a reputable researcher that there were only 2.5 death. This is a scholarly opinion. Another example is that economic embargo imposed by the western nation was also a well-known fact. It should be included. The original article didn't even memtion the severity of natural disaster. The definition of "neutral" is that all sides of opinions must be included. Oldhand 12 (talk) 04:24, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
Hi Josh, I appreciate your message. I would think the function f should depend both on loading and geometry . You can check that out reviewing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_mechanics#Stress_intensity_factor and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_intensity_factor. At first I thought your correction was wrong, now I'm not so sure it was, but in any case one of these articles' definition of the f function need to be corrected. Best regards.

Hi Josh,
I have edited the Southern Arizona Pride page in that they continue to say that they are a non=profit organization and yet admittedly haven't even filed paperwork with the IRS for ANY 501 status. The 3 members of SAP all were removed from Tucson Pride's Board of Directors. Drew Pratz resigned while under censure, Edward Castro (then VP) was unanimously voted off the Board for trying to sabotage the 2013 Tucson Pride event and the third member of SAP quit the Board when Drew did. An IRS case has been opened against SAP for fraud. To be a non profit one must, under federal law, be recognized as such by the IRS and Southern Arizona Pride is not listed on the publicly available IRS non-profit website. SAP is trying to use Wikipedia to further commit criminal fraud by stating they are a non-profit and that is why I have added (not recognized by the IRS). — Preceding unsigned comment added by DavidA373 (talk • contribs) 18:06, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

I was the unsigned contributor whose changes were deemed inappropriate. I have since signed in several times and have reedited the content and have added all the proper notes to then page. Since the top notification on puffery only relates to edits that are no longer on the page, can you please remove the puffery notification from the page, or at least indicate what needs to be changed for this note to be removed.

Thanks I just added the above text to the talk page. seems strange that something you guys added so quickly needs so much paper work to be removed. how that consensus was made? and if the consensus was made so quickly, the removal should take that long either especially the necessary changes were made soon after the puffery note was left at the top of the page. Please expedite the process if you can. Thanks so much. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dadabase (talk • contribs) 17:33, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Josh3580. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for Molalla River Academy, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers and review the criteria for speedy deletion. Particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Educational institutions are ineligible for deletion under the A7 criteria. If you have questions, feel free to drop me a line. Cindy(talk) 23:33, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

I have now restored the version of 26. June 2012 of that archived debate that you partially tried to restore earlier today. You can look at the revision history there.

I detected your snide. I was just making a jab with the ISP comment. It is obviously your free choice to take your own actions. Wikipedia is VERY open, and free to edit, because the end results tend to be incredibly informational and accurate. Abusers simply gum up the process, without significantly affecting the end result (besides delay). I can empathize with your having problems, more than you may know, and always wanting to stir the metaphorical sh!t, but I try to turn my argumentative side to the productive. Make this site better. Get mad at clueless people. I've found it a way to be constructive as well as obstructive. Give that a shot, it might be more rewarding for you. Point out the best way to build a safe infrastructure here, or point out the ways the current system fails. I'd love to have someone of your passion working to benefit the project. —Josh3580talk/hist 06:56, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

I don't think adding categories constitutes vandalism. I haven't read the policy on adding categories though, at most I think the edits should be reverted an the user directed to the addition of categories policy. (if they conflict with what he's doing) Bluefist talk 04:36, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

Hey there, i'm Andy I really don't know how wikipedia classes their info, i only came here to fix up my niece's information. as per the website you mention, i have asked them repeatedly to correct the information, jes doesn't actualy edit that herself. also if you're in the muncie aria, then you'll most likely be able to hook up with Carol Brieden, who's still there. I believe she's still there anyway, it's been years. Anyway, i'm going around trying to correct the information on her birth place. she was raised in New York, but born in Muncie, where the family's from. However, how to ad this on wikipedia without it being removed, i have no idea. heck, to write this i have someone helping me out. Thanks for your time, and if there's anything i can do to correct this information then let me know. PS, i really advize you or anyone in the Muncie aria to find Carol Brieden if she's still there. i'll close with a question: Is there anyone here that i can contact in order to ensure that this info stays? i'd really like this sourted out now, i've been trying on the "official" website for 3 years, and some dude keeps saying no. thanks

Josh,
I am in the midst of using wikipedia as a contributor for the first time. If you could help me that would be excellent. I was in the midst of searching how to link correctly.
Evolve works closely with the International Centre for Social Franchising here in Cape Town and I'm drafting my contribution as we speak for an internal link to a "Social Replication" page.
Would be great to know your familiarity with the topic.

Hi. Please could you explain the following message left on my talk page: "A page you created, 8-8-8, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it redirects from an implausible misspelling."? I created the page for good reason (it was previously empty & linked to from Whyte notation). It may seem like an "implausible misspelling", but it is not. Rather than have a link to an empty page, I created a redirect page that links to a page explaining it. The reason I didn't just link to the destination article in the original article is that there are a whole series of similarly-named pages (see the "3.1 Common wheel arrangements" section on the page Whyte notation). At some point, I intend to write something in the actual page 8-8-8, but for the moment I would prefer it not to link to an empty page.

Hi Josh3580.
My apologies regarding changes to the above wiki page. I have resubmitted the information with a different link containing the actual 1975 statement. I trust this meets your requirements. I would point out that the information contained in the existing page is not referenced by any official LCA Statement. While this exisiting Wiki paragraph is, no doubt, more socially acceptable it does not represent the official position of the church and does not represent the experience of LGBT people within the church. My concern is that young LGBT people in particular who are seeking information about the position of the Lutheran Church of Australia be given as accurate information as possible.
