Hey Sigmundur,
I saw your comment on the Stata wall. I agree that Stata is not the best statistical software- although I don't know if I would call it a joke :). It is nice because it is pretty cheap for students. What software do you use? I find SAS to be extremely powerful (but also pricey). In any case, I admit I do not know that much about statistical software. However, if you do, I think it would be great if you added a section to Stata's page comparing it to other statistical software, or simply highlighting its weaknesses.PGScooter (talk) 05:49, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
Done - I saw nothing wrong with your edits, and accordingly have granted you the use of the tool. Also qualifies you to use Huggle. Please be sure to read WP:ROLLBACK prior to using the tool, as misuse (even inadvertant) can result in any admin removing your access to rollback. Best wishes to you Fritzpoll (talk) 22:12, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
Hello--Would you be willing to trim your recent comment? It's (as you note) mostly a rant, with only a teeny bit about improving the article. I was tempted to just revert it, but you might want to revise it to keep the good bit. CRETOG8(t/c) 23:26, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia policy states that talk pages are for discussions around improving the article, and are not a general forum. We can't give out awards for "best deleted article" or something, on the article page, because that would not conform to our neutral point of view policies. And if that's not appropriate for the article page then it's not appropriate for the talk page either.—greenrd (talk) 21:38, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi! I know it's been a long time, but to answer your question here, your edits were made to a duplicate page named Li Ang (Go). (notice punctuation). A diff can be seen here. It seems that the article was redirected to Li Ang (Go), but your edit wasn't copied to that article for some reason. I still think it should be added to the article. Regards, Jafeluv (talk) 05:58, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on MOP (Internet site) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding ((hangon))
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Thanks for taking your time reviewing the article. I really appreciate it.. Just tell me what to do so it can pass :D --TIAYN (talk) 17:58, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
The svg you submitted, which is a non-technical explination of a path through different topological spaces is good, but it has one error...
If you trace the path, it nexer actually goes to the red portion of the topology, so the seperated one that shows red is wrong.
...I assume you wanted the path through all colors, not skipping one.

Thanks for uploading File:Eb logo smaller.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 03:51, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
Do you understand the significance of what Zero Hedge is and has done? I have only had this "advertising" complaint about one other article I've worked on (also not one I started), one that originally came from a promotional brochure. That article was very difficult to write because there was little about it that didn't come from a source intimately connected with the subject and I completely re-wrote the entire article. With this article, I expanded it and added citations, but it was also difficult because of the choice of the contributors to remain anonymous. Nonetheless, it has a huge reputation in the financial community and is a very important website, well deserving of a Wikipedia page. I'm a good writer and I am careful about how I write here. I'd like to know just what you object to in the article. Thanks. Marrante (talk) 19:50, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:James Joseph Dresnok.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under Non-Free content criteria but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a Non-Free rationale.
If you have uploaded other Non-Free media, consider checking that you have specified the Non-Free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:12, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

Request reason:
Hi, I'm currently in China, so it makes sense for me to use a proxy to access Wikipedia. The proxy is a paid-for service, and AFAIK it's operated by a US partner to a large-ish Chinese company. Please unblock all IPs from this proxy. --Sigmundur (talk) 02:33, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Clearing an autoblock
Due to the nature of the block applied we need additional information before we can decide whether to unblock you. It is very likely that you are not personally blocked. If you are prevented from editing, it may be because you are autoblocked or blocked because of your IP address. Without further details there is nothing further we can do to review or lift your block. Please follow these instructions:
If you are not blocked from editing the sandbox then the autoblock on your IP address has already expired and you can resume editing. T. Canens (talk) 13:13, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the ((unblock)) template again.

Hello Sigmundur,
I'm part of a team that is researching ways to help Wikipedia editors find interesting content to contribute to Wikipedia. More specifically, we are investigating whether content from news sources can be used to enhance Wikipedia editing. We have created a tool, called wikiFeed, that allows you to specify Twitter and/or RSS feeds from news sources that are interesting to you. wikiFeed then helps you make connections between those feeds and Wikipedia articles. We believe that using this tool may be a lot of fun, and may help you come up with some ideas on how to contribute to Wikipedia in ways that interest you. Please participate! To do so, complete this survey and follow this link to our website. Once you're there, click the "create an account" link to get started.
For more information about wikiFeed, visit our project page. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask via my talk page, or by email at wikifeedcc@gmail.com. We appreciate your time and hope you enjoy playing with wikiFeed!
Thanks! WorldsApart (talk) 21:06, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Sigmundur, thanks for adding the "needs expert attention" tag to the IQ reference chart article, which indeed needs expert attention. I see I am one of the few users who has commented at all on the talk page of that article in the last few years, and you are one of the few editors in the edit history of the article following any of the usual Wikipedia guidelines. (I recognize Aprock as another editor who has consistently helpful contributions to any article he edits, and a couple other editors.) I expect I will be rewriting that article in full soon, after testing revisions in my sandbox. Please feel free to let me know what you think about the revised condition of the article once it is posted. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 15:09, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the image, and it will be more informative to readers.
If the information is not provided, the image may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.
If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Theo's Little Bot (error?) 09:53, 14 April 2013 (UTC)Hi, Sigmundur, I see the article IQ reference chart has been tagged (by you) for expert review since October 2012. As part of a process of drafting a revision of that article in my user sandbox, I am contacting all Wikipedians who have edited that article since early 2009 for whom I can find a user talk page.
I have read all the diffs of all the edits committed to the article since the beginning of 2009 (since before I started editing Wikipedia). I see the great majority of edits over that span have been vandalism (often by I.P. editors, presumably teenagers, inserting the names of their classmates in charts of IQ classifications) and reversions of vandalism (sometimes automatically by ClueBot). Just a few editors have referred to and cited published reliable sources on the topic of IQ classification. It is dismaying to see that the number of reliable sources cited in the article has actually declined over the last few years. To help the process of finding reliable sources for articles on psychology and related topics, I have been compiling a source list on intelligence since I became a Wikipedian in 2010, and I invite you to make use of those sources as you revise articles on Wikipedia and to suggest further sources for the source on the talk pages of the source list and its subpages. Because the IQ reference chart article has been tagged as needing expert attention for more than half a year, I have opened discussion on the article's talk page about how to fix the article, and I welcome you to join the discussion. The draft I have in my user sandbox shows my current thinking about a reader-friendly, well sourced way to update and improve the article. I invite your comments and especially your suggestions of reliable sources as the updating process proceeds. Thanks for drawing my attention to the editing needs of that article with your tag. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 20:59, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
... at the Western culture article, where you now may be beginning to have a consensus to change the article, in the directions you proposed earlier (where you called attention to length, and sourcing).
