Hi Nat, I found out that you reverted my edit on the SSM page, see [1]. I have to be honest; irreligious person, table for one, that's me. :) So could you please explain to me what you meant with the diferrence between the is and IS? I mean, if it's no trouble.
Anyhow, I changed it again, my latest edit can be seen here. Is this a better way of describing it? It seems more neutral this way, but I'm all open to input. The reason that I'd like to see a referrence made about the Catholic church, is because someone reckoned it strange that the 'Pope-quote' was at the top of the page, for he is just one religious leader. I replied by saying that the link isn't that strange, for the Netherlands has an Archdiocese, and some 4 million Catholics, so the Vatican felt that it was also their concern, and simply were the first 'big religion' to respond to it.
Anyhow, if you still feel my latest edit is not accurate, please, edit it into something that is! :) Best regards, Robster1983 (talk) 09:44, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
Major typo on my part in correcting that, hope that my claim that I know how to spell his name bears water. :) A pleasure to correct my error, and thank you for contacting me regarding it!

Hi NatGertler, I just wanted to get your help on the Same-sex marriage law in the United States by state article. I'm working on a replacement article in my sandbox here - User:NYyankees51/marriage/new. The current article is not very helpful and I'm trying to make a comprehensive state-by-state list. I made a table listing all the states prohibiting gay marriage by voter referendum. I'm not very good at tables so if you know how to work with them to make it look better, that would be great, and any help you can provide to the sandbox article would be great as well. Thanks! NYyankees51 (talk) 17:31, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

hello, my name is Nat as well and the reason my username is blockpartyweho is not because i AM larry block, its because i do all of the web design for historic boystown. i have NO affiliation with block party or the brand. i am just a web designer for the good of the community. i chose the name blockpartyweho b/c boystown and historicboystown was taken, so i chose the closest thing to this particular cause. i made NO money from this project...i did it for the goodness of a community movement.
the reason larry block's name appears so often in my article is not because i am "promoting" him but because HE is the ONLY person who began this movement in weho...HE spoke up at a city council meeting, HE organized a sponsorship committee between MANY local businesses (so it's not just block party) its also, micky's club, club eleven, yogurt stop, etc. MANY businesses are for the designation of historic boystown but HE is the one who originated the movement and discussed it at city hall. so just as you would say MLK was an advocate for the civil rights movement...larry block is an advocate for the designation for historic boystown in weho. he just wants the city to recognize a place where MANY call home and feel accepted for whoever they are, myself included. so yes, i know larry block through designing his website but i do not intend to "promote" him or his store...i intended to promote historic boystown and yes he is a HUGE part of that so his name will have to be mentioned. it didnt just come up in a city hall meeting one day. i was at the actual meeting where he first spoke of it and then i talked afterward with him and volunteered my services of designing the website.
i guess i dont understand the big deal about having a couple of paragraphs on a universal website...what's the harm here? i am not linking his business page nor a did i even mention the name of it. i said "a local store owner" this is not for promotional purposes, it is to designate boystown for individuals who want a place to call their own. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Blockpartyweho (talk • contribs) 18:28, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi Nat
Thanks for the warning note.
If the existing article on NAFAS had come up when I searched for it, I would not have wasted my time writing another. There must be something wrong with the search engine. There was not the slightest trace of any article on NAFAS when I tried to search for it. Absolutely zero. The only probelm now is that I have linked a couple of articles to the NAFAS article I created. And I will take a look at the other NAFAS article to see if there is material I can salvage from the stub I created last night. Best wishes -- Robert of Ramsor (talk) 09:14, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

NatGertler... I am VERY new to the wikipedia group, as far as contributing with actual information. I have donated several hundred dollars over the course of the last few years and continue to support by purchasing database updates with my iOS devices. I understand the importance of keeping the Wikipedia free of liter. One thing I am concerned about is that you don't realize that I actually wrote the content you deleted. I built the site that it originated from and am the acting CTO of the very organization it was generated for. On direct request of Medal of Honor recipient, Drew Dix, that article was prepared and delivered for the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and the Center for American Values. He is the co-founder of the non profit organization the Center for American Values. Given that the article content was in it's infancy, and that I don't have an offline editor of sorts to prepare my submission, I am perplexed and concerned at the rapid rate and condescending removal of it.
I would say that I changed a lot of verbiage that seemed bias from the original content on the website. It was drained of the American Superiority complex that oozed from the original content I posted on the CAV's original website.
Please... I beg of you... maybe a discussion prior to instant death of content would be appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwilliam13 (talk • contribs) 23:37, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
No idea if I am in the right place - can't find any other means of contacting you. Why do you want to remove the entry on Cassone: The International Online Magazine of Art and Art Booka?

Responded to poster here.
Well, I do recognize the difference between a "newbie" and a "vandal", and can smell a page that really isn't encyclopedic quite well. I do try to help bonafide newbies in a friendly manner; but I still have a low tolerance for vandals.
I'm going to disagree that God hates figs is well-sourced -- while some of the sources are notable, most are either single sentence descriptions with a photo, or descriptions of the counter-protests that mention your poster in a sentence or two, so they really can't be said to back up the whole God hates figs argument. I will give it to you that the article is formatted and wikified, but then again, it's quite easy to polish a turd,. . . This whole thing would be best summarized if we could (a) find a free image of it, upload it, and attach it to the WBC article, and (b) summarize what you have in 1-2 sentences in the counter protests section, preferably using the NBC and Deseret News articles you've already provided. That would be a much better and more efficient use of space than a separate vanity article on the topic. WTF? (talk) 18:15, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the formatting to the page. Another editor has added Categories, which is great because those are two things I am not yet all that clued-up on. Currently I am trying to source published reviews of this book. From what I have read online it was [still is?] considered almost a Z80 Programmer's "Bible", or at least one of the best books for programming the Z80. I used this in my teens for learning assembly programming and understand why others have such a high view of it - and though I agree that it is probably indispensible as a reference book, it still seems fairly formidable to me as a book for learning Z80 programming from, perhaps due to its quite serious and formal tone. I have a copy (Radio Shack 2nd edition). I'd like to get a comment or two from any published reviews. There was quite a few magazines published in the 1980s, so I have been focusing on the more general computing ones for reviews, as well as the more serious, hobbyist computer-specific magazines like ZX Computing (not found anything there from 1982 - 1984). It seems (to my mind) likely that this was reviewed somewhere, beyond the odd paragraph or recommendation in a programming column. But of course it is just possible that it wasn't. Just not sure where to focus my research. Can you suggest somewhere on Wikipedia to ask?. Going to put the reviews question on the article talk page to start. Also (if this is a topic you are familiar with?) are there any other general Z80 texts that you think wikipedia ought to have articles on? For instance I have a PDF of William Barden's the Z-80 Microcomputer handbookand could start an article on that when I have time. DMSBel (talk) 18:44, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
Nat how do I work with you re Grace Gawler page? PipCornall — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pipcornall (talk • contribs) 00:22, 4 September 2011 (UTC) Hello Nat, I can appreciate your efforts to help me 'clean up' the article Grace Gawler - thanks - I agree it looks more'encyclopedic'. You can tell I'm a newcomer.
Perhaps you can assist me with regard to libel isssue on the Ian Gawler, Ainslie Meares pages because it is important that cancer patients know the truth. Cancer authorities in this country are alarmed at the increase of deaths from patients chosing alternative medicine - this number is likely in the thousands. Ian Gawler and his materials are likely the country's biggest influence for those patient choices. The case concerns Grace Gawler's Australian Medical Journal (MJA)rebuttal letter exposing errors in 2 MJA article about Ian Gawler. As a result of that letter Ian Gawler publicly admitted to knowledge of the errors.
But cancer patients, in large have not been told, and continue to follow 'what they believe' he did to cure his bone cancer -
Since Ian Gawler admitted knowing of the erorrs in both MJA articles -it would seem to me that there is no libel issue Not sharing the information could ending up supporting incorrect information in 2 MJA article and contribute to more deaths from alt/med and seems worse than any libel issue. As I understand libel - if it is true and proveable - it is not liebellous?
Thanks for your edits. With respect to you Nat - Perhaps this needs to be looked at by Wiki editors with medical science backgrounds What to you think? Pip Pipcornall (talk) 23:51, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi NatGertler,
I expected the citation needed tag. And will probably have to remove the statement; not because it isn't true but because no one published anything, obituary or the fact that no obituary was published.

The article in question was hoiked out of main-space when it was proposed for deletion and it became clear that its removal was, IMHO, not on account of shortcoming in its content, but because people objected to the content itself ever appearing on Wiki. To the best of my K, the original editor was refused permission to user-space it. I am preserving it until such time as the TMM becomes "acceptable" wiki-wise once more, to save other editors from having to recreate it from scratch. At intervals I go through a process of checking the "water", but I have not yet been convinced that the time is apposite to ask that freedom of opinion and speech be recognised in this regard (I am, of course, aware than on many other subjects massive amounts of time are spent ensuring that all sides of a subject get a fair hearing on Wiki -- this, I fear, is not one).
Of course, if you are convinced that TMM will never be allowed into Wiki, and you object to someone preserving a record of it, then you will wish to obliterate my user-page and have me further wiki-banned. Sincerely Simon Cursitor (talk)

Hello Nat, I appreciate your detailed instructions on the Talk page for the article. The thing is that QuestionPro WAS only a software/website during the years of development, developed and managed by SurveyAnalytics the parent company. It is popular and widely used in the field of market research and in universities. Hence the most of the notable resources will be found referring to QP as a software, not a company. However, later QuestionPro Inc was made a separate corporate and hence it stands as a separate company than its parent SA. There are some notable sources which have talked about QP after it turned into QP INC, for example:
Note: Numeration added by Nat for easier reference
From here, would it be more appropriate to just: 1) Add the above provide resources in the article OR 2) Create a new Article by the title QuestionPro Inc 3) Change the category of this article to make it that of a software instead of a company (as QuestionPro Inc is a company and QuestionPro is the online software), as under: [[5]]
Also, I just read about 'notability cannot be inherited' so I think your suggestion about removing SA references is appropriate, shall proceed with that once the concern regarding deletion is sorted. Unitedopinions (talk) 13:48, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
--Nat Gertler (talk) 14:35, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Yes, I had been reading Wikipedia guideline articles with regards to notability, neutrality, consensus, citation, title naming conventions etc. for 7-8 days prior to creating the article and then I proceeded with it. I work in the support team of SurveyAnalytics, but I'm not being paid in any way to write any PR for QuestionPro, neither am I being biased about facts and I'm willing to develop the article from NPOV as I get more hang of what information is acceptable on here and what is not.Also, contributions from other users with NPOV will only help creating a well developed article. I have read that Wikipedia understands that people associated with a subject matter can contribute in good faith (I have read and understood http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest ). I see that there are well developed articles about software in this field such as Salesforce so I wish to properly develop an articl I've found one more source: http://www.inc.com/inc5000/profile/survey-analytics and another one that I've posted earlier already: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2008136070_brier25.html (in here they clearly reference QuestionPro as the main business of SA) I hope these references from the INC 500 and Seattle Times will help add to the notability. In 2008 we were the #172 fastest growing company by INC (this list is no longer online, but we can provide a copy if needed). In 2009 we were the #685 fastest growing on INC.com (and #67 fastest growing in Advertising and Marketing). Essentially all of the revenue reported by Survey Analytics was generated by QuestionPro.
As you'll see on INC.com the only URL listed for Survey Analytics is www.questionpro.com. For many years Survey Analytics was "Doing Business As" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doing_business_as ) as QuestionPro. We've since split out QuestionPro out as it's own legal company. We believe it makes more sense to the general public, and is of greater benefit to the Wikipedia community, for the Article to be titled QuestionPro instead of Survey Analytics. QuestionPro has over 1,000,000 authenticated members, and 2.4 million unique visitors per year. This large community is much more likely to search for and recognize QuestionPro instead of Survey Analytics, and we believe would be therefore be a more relevant and useful article.

Hi Nat. I've put in lot of time searching for references published in university peer reviewed papers and on gov sites. I also found a couple of other links which are from sites that are well reputed (for example brothersoft). I've changed the category of the topic to software from company and have changed the infobox type accordingly. Since the time given for discussion was almost up, I've removed the notice on the page so that you can have a look. Please feel free to make any changes to the language if you feel NPOV being compromised with. Also, if you have other editors in contact who are from this field, it would be great if they can come and contribute to the article. --Unitedopinions (talk) 22:59, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
The article is just a repeat of the title which qualifies for A1, it's easier to just CSD the article than prod it. Thanks Secret account 19:16, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for being the voice of reason on many fronts. Binksternet (talk) 07:15, 15 January 2012 (UTC) |
Hello there. I appreciate your help on the pages Arrhythmia and Ruins & Relics, however, you removed some sources that I put time and effort into finding and putting there. Again, glad you wanted to contribute, but I don't appreciate you removing those sources. And thank you for those reviews BTW, they were helpful, mine might've been a tad long. I have made sure what I have written in those articles are mainly relevant, so I don't appreciate you removing any of that either. Thanks for your help, I can take it from here.

Ooops sorry you didn't contribute to Ruins & Relics, just Arrhythmia. Sorry about that. Creativity97 Talk? 17:21, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the title change. I was trying to think of something differentiate between Rep. Burroughs and Admiral Burroughs. I like your title much better. Thanks again! Quill and Pen (talk) 02:58, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the feedback on the LIfepak page. This is all new and a bit overwhelming to me. I've been a fan of Wikipedia for quite a few years, read countless articles on cars, aircraft, history, my field of employment and what have you. I didn't fully realize just how much goes into making one article. Gotta brush up on my referencing, spoken word may not be enough sometimes :-)
I want to write an article about the company I work for. It's called Hunter EMS, and it's similar to Transcare EMS. It's based in the same area, concentrated on Long Island. Lately I've been getting patients and family members asking about us, for information and such. Who we are, what we do, etc. Sometimes our websites don't always work, we've had some server problems. I actually had somebody today ask me if we have a Wikipedia page, which we don't. They'd heard about all the hype surrounding the SOPA protest. My question is, are the websites of the company (we have 2) enough of a reference? I noticed that Transcare's article really only uses their website along with one newsletter reference.
Thanks a bunch, WFD6940 — Preceding unsigned comment added by WFD6940 (talk • contribs) 00:44, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
That clears a lot of it up. Thanks again. Big help. It was just an idea that floated in my head. I can see I still have lots to learn. Won't discourage me from asking for help, though. :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by WFD6940 (talk • contribs) 04:58, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
In the case of uncertainty, expectation is what is considered the most likely to happen. An expectation, which is a belief that is centered on the future, may or may not be realistic. A less advantageous result gives rise to the emotion of disappointment. If something happens that is not at all expected it is a surprise

I'm not sure why you trigger-happy reviewers leave comments, without checking context of material you are discussing and without clarifying which of the millions of guidelines should be used. The page you're requesting cleanup on herefordisamb is new as of today, and has no other 'format'. The subject is a name which relates to more than one public figure, and there is no other type of wording possible to specify the difference between the nearly nine or ten people it pertains to (that's with exclusion of about 100+ other non-prominent people), other than the facts included on the page. Main subject is on a separate page here for main subject1 with a notification about the disamb. Perhaps you can get a Wiki expert can get the page to look prettier, without changing the wording? Let me know.Blurbzone (talk) 19:23, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Yes, yes, the edit I made to Maggie Gallagher was exactly 666 characters. No, this was not on purpose. I am not The Beast; I'm a lesser minion at best! --Nat Gertler (talk) 17:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi NatGertler. I know you mean well, but can you please stop discussing other user's comments at Androzaniamy's page? All it serves to do is extend the conversation, which she's not part of - which is adding a lot of noise. To be clear, I'm not asking you to de-watchlist the page, nor to stop offering advice, but rather to stop discussing other editors advice - Amy can make up her own mind and I'd rather be the editor who points out whether advice is problematic. If you have a problem with another editors advice, can you take it to said editor's talk page. Thank you. WormTT · (talk) 09:00, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
I didn't think anything about creating the sub-page for Lists of mines. For future reference, if the need ever arises again... where should I put it.. ? for now I CSD'd it and moved the content to a personal sub-page of mine... Ncboy2010 (talk) 16:09, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
The entire thing actually started because I occasionally go WP:Requested Articles and see if theres anything that interests me and I saw where someone had requested a list of mines. When I realised there were no articles on it I was very surprised, actually. We've got Lists of lists, lists of pokemon, television shows, characters. We have a list for fictional atheists and agnostics but hardly any lists of mines?
After I started a couple of the articles, I realized the sheer number of articles that would eventually need to be created was insurmountable, I went ahead and tried to create at least a stub for the 10 or so most populous countries. Sorry for the long story. Ncboy2010 (talk) 16:30, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

"Mrs. Tyndale-Clyde's Tea". Well done, well done! Now that's an obscure reference (if I'm remembering it correctly at all.). Gave me a chuckle in any case. Best, --joe deckertalk to me 15:08, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
Ho, i would like to write an article on About Comics on the german language wikipedia, and since you are About Comics, i wondered if you could provide me with some proper information on you and your company besides your official homepage. If you could help me on this, please keep in mind that the german wiki is sadly very restrictive when it comes to all things fictional -and especially to comics and comic-related articles- so information of important and/or relevant milestones would be very appreciated.

I don't see it as inappropriate. The user has never bothered to discuss any of his or her edits on the article's talk page. Had that been different, I might agree with you. But I'll try in the future not to warn so early. --Me-123567-Me (talk) 16:36, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article J.T. Ready is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/J.T. Ready until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. West Eddy (talk) 00:45, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for moving the passage about President Obama. That's where I meant to put it, but mistakenly added it to the wrong paragraph. As has been discussed on other pages related to the issue, President Obama's announcement, although not an official "policy" proposal as of yet, has been touted by numerous news sources as "historical" and has been compared to Lyndon Johnson's stance on civil rights in the 1960s. I don't have the sources at my fingertips, but there are various quotes from Michael Bloomberg and other prominent politicians and historians stating essentially the same thing, but I honestly didn't feel there was a need to cite a dozen sources just to add one sentence about it to the lead. Anyway, thanks for catching my mistake and fixing it. --- Crakkerjakk (talk) 13:45, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

You PRODded this, and it was deleted. Undeletion has now been requested at WP:REFUND, so per WP:DEL#Proposed deletion I have restored it, and now notify you in case you wish to condier taking it to AfD. regards, JohnCD (talk) 16:24, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
The court judgement in the El Naschie case http://www.nature.com/nature/newspdf/456432a-s1.pdf refers on p. 12 to the "requirement that experts should not take it upon themselves to promote the point of view of the party instructing them or engage in the role of advocates" For me that would mean that we can quote Turok either directly, or specifically mentioning that he was a defense witness in the trial and said "...".

Hi Nat. I'm not sure why Still left you out of this, but since you clearly understand the issues, I think you should join in the discussion at the dispute resolution that he started. Belchfire (talk) 04:25, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

I am sorry to hear that you have apparently been banned. That is certainly surprising news. I'm also sorry to hear that you are part of a sockpuppet account conspiracy. That's surprising, too. I thought you were Nat Gertler the Comic Book Guy, but apparently, you are an army of sockpuppets. Is there anything else we should know? -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 12:59, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
I reverted the page back because I found a reference straight from Southern Poverty Law Center citing the organization as a hate group. http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/intelligence-report/browse-all-issues/2010/winter/the-hard-liners Jackal242 (talk) 05:54, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Hello, NatGertler. This message is being sent to inform you that a discussion is taking place at Wikipedia:Wikiquette assistance regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is An Uncivil Threesome. Thank you. VQuakr (talk) 18:45, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
You recently used a bunch of "fact" tags on David Barton (author). While I appreciate your concern about keeping Wikipedia accurate, checking a number of the places where you put "fact" tags I found the relevant fact in the next listed reference following where you placed the tag. Additionally, you put "fact" tags in the lead; per WP:WHYCITE, "Citations are also often discouraged in the lead section of an article, insofar as it summarizes information for which sources are given later in the article". Something like the claim that Barton is a best-selling author needn't be cited in the lead as it is cited in a later section. I have undone your edits en mass as time is tight on my end; you may wish to review your concerns, check the references, and restore any individual fact tags for material that is still not found in the listed sources. --Nat Gertler (talk) 23:16, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
