If you want to work on Lost River go head it was one the first pages i did. Since then in looking at maps of Idaho i found that there is a Big Lost River and Little Lost River and the lost river page is for a town not the river.

hi -- I definitely didn't mean to delete your comments; the version of the page I edited didn't have yours, and I was replying directly below "George H"'s comments, but I didn't get an edit conflict. How weird -- I'm sorry about that, but I certainly would never edit someone else's comments! best -- bikeable (talk) 17:20, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

No problem. Curling is a noble sport: nothing to apologize for. I agreed to let the author try to improve the page because it had been deleted for A1 (which actually means too little context, not notability) rather than through AfD. I guess I jumped the gun also.

I fixed the image which you placed on the Absalom article. I found that it was the frame attribute in the image tag that was causing problem. I saw that you had placed a help message in your edit summary. The message in the edit summary is not seen by many people. Its generally better to drop a message on a user talk page for help.

Well, of all the things people have said about me, being at a loss for words was never one of them. Thank you so much for the help and support. As you can see, I'm not really experienced in the finer formatting details of this place. It would be so much easier if the pages used simple HTML, but that's a whole different discussion. I added a bold intro to define it from the other discussions. As to the WP bashing, it's not my intent to disgrace or insult, merely to make a point. In prior discussions we have been branded as spam, porn, moneyscamers, and virus users. Not to mention the demands and senseless reminders posted over and over. I thought it best to show that some of those users demanding we be removed weren't exactly in the best position to judge. I really wish people would come use the site instead of just reading the front page and flipping a coin. I do have just cause for being suspicious of the deletion process. We had more Keep votes last time we were here, and we were still removed. Be behaved, stayed off, built ourselves up to meet the requirements, came back with a less-billboard look, only to end up fighting this fight over again. I don't like arguing with people I'll never meet over silly issues that even congress would settle by now. I just wish we could stay, have a head admin with unquestionable writing skills edit it to be ultimately neutral, and be done with it. Again, thanks for the support, and I would be happy to discuss anything you wish to discuss. JohnQ.Public 23:37, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:AndreWatts.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
((Replaceable fair use disputed))
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. – Quadell (talk) (random) 21:29, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:CampfireSongsCover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 19:11, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading Image:Eagleisp.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. MECU≈talk 17:07, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

There is no "ongoing discussion" regarding the region's name at Talk:Greater London and the region is named "London" - that is a fact that is well sourced across Wikipedia.

Dear Wtwilson3: The problem is not that two images cannot coexist. The poblem is that the Shrine image is completely out of place in the Political Movement section of the New Age article.

If you would ike to retain the Shrine image, I suggest moving it to one of the first two or three sections of the article. - Babel41 (talk) 23:32, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

That reeks of censorship, sir or madam.
When you say 'talk page' do you mean your own personal talk page? Because as far as I can figure out, the only way I can talk is by performing edits. Which doesn't mean that I'm trying to be a jerk, but rather that wikipedia is not extremely user-friendly, nor intuitive.
Incidentally, calling all American women materialistic sluts is something akin to calling all African-Americans lazy, stupid apes. They are both extremely insulting. It's one thing to profer opinions, but another to be sexist, chauvenist, and hateful.
Perhaps you will think I am over-reacting. But, I read a statistic somewhere which said that 80% of wikipedia editors were men. I strongly suspect that the person who wrote that portion of the article was a man. I also strongly suspect that you are a man. Not that there's anything wrong with being a man, as you can't really help it, but it does pose a problem in that you are unaware of the female perspective. You may be unaware of other perspectives as well, but you are definitely unaware of the female perspective.
But to the offending article itself: it profers an opinion which not only is deeply critical of an entire gender, is poorly cited. Some comedian somewhere called American women sluts. That is not evidence. A study would be evidence. Even a paper, with proper arguments and such, would be evidence. But so far, you do not have evidence, and this is because I'm pretty sure that you are blatantly wrong. And this is what bothers me the most: that you are wrong, and that you are influencing other people to view American women as money-hungry whores, and you really should know better.

to Kirkby-in-Ashfield was reverted by an admin. More to the point, WP:CITEVAR specifically states that personal preference is not a basis on which to challenge or change citation methods. In addition, the comments about not splitting the references section into "sources" and "notes" run contrary to WP:ASL. Furthermore, there are a number of featured articles which use this method; see for example Brill Tramway and its associated articles or even yesterday's featured article.

Hello Wtwilson3. I have decided to remove the proposed deletion tag from Classical Music Discoveries as Wikipedia policy states that anyone, including the original author, can object to the proposed deletion and that such objections cannot be overridden by reapplying the proposed deletion tag (see diff:[5]). However, I do agree with you that the article has many issues. A quick Google search certainly brings the article's notability into question. If you still believe the article should be deleted, feel free to nominate it at Articles for Deletion and remember to notify the original author. While I understand that putting the article through AfD would consume more time than a simple PROD, it is important that we adhere to PROD policy and use it only for uncontroversial deletions.

Hello - some editors fight off the vandal hordes, as I do repairing pages with citation errors. If I didn't - there would be a large backlog in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting and in Category:Pages with missing references list as in Category:Pages with broken reference names (more than 1500 yesterday). But it is impossible to work it alone. Do you know how to do a "Blitz" (excuse the comparision) to find willing editors to work on it. It is much more easier to repair references if you do it one hour, one day or one week ago after the errors were made instead of months and years after the error was done. Very, very difficult to find these errors.
Only with WikiBlame Search it is possible to find and repair such errors.

Because you accepted this[6] I'm a bit reluctant to revert you, but there are several problems. There's a mixture of dating systems, eg 1413 and 2013, the background and early life sections are from an affiliated webpage (ie not independent) - ah, "In 1401 A.H., he founded an islamic movement called Dawat-e-Islami, for the propagation of Qurānic knowledge and Sunnaĥ." is lifted from[7]. This: "His most prominent endeavour is his book Faizān-e-Sunnat. He expertly elaborates and explains," is both pov and has the hallmarks of being copied, and is from the same website, [8]. There's no source for "Now that policeman Mumtaz qadri has been sentenced to death and all investigation is over finally.

I am new to editing Wikipedia, so I am not sure if I did it correctly. I am sure that I probably made several mistakes in the process, but my information is true and helpful. Some of the information on the page is actually the exact opposite of what is stated on Coast Guard examinations. I would hate for someone to take this information and fail their test because of it. There is not much margin for error during USCG exams (90% accuracy) and every little bit helps. Here is an example where the information provided on Wikipedia would mislead someone into the incorrect answer: http://www.uscgq.com/question/deck/2/2306
If you like, I can provide copies of my licenses and certifications.

The article Lukewarm (film) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((proposed deletion/dated))
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing ((proposed deletion/dated))
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. RadioFan (talk) 21:52, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, You nominated the article Willy Monfret for removal, with the feedback: Does not meet any of the notability guidelines for musicians. It's quite complicated, since Willy Monfret is not only a musician but also a model, actor and the ambassador of Guadeloupe Islands. I checked the guidelines and he has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or TV network. He had a guestmix in a Japanese radioshow. Could you tell me if this is enough? And maybe how I can solve the problem? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rosaenv (talk • contribs) 08:59, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, about the erroneous edit. Although the page refers to Henry VIII's sister, I apparently read it as daughter and assumed they meant Henry VII. I made a similar edit to the Execution of Lady Jane Grey page, but after double checking it, I believe that edit is accurate. At any rate, thanks for the backup.

I am quite flattered you picked me and asked for an opinion on this. I spent quite a long time and added my two cents worth to the discussion using tongue in cheek wording that gave me great pleasure. We need to loosen up. I don't mind stuffy colleagues answering me there with "put down" comments. I am a self-deprecating person. I would rather cherish that knowing it struck a nerve with them... I am a very inclusive person, and get worked up when people from lesser known areas like Guadeloupe get the wrong side of the stick. For me he is quite notable... seriously, no joke. Since this is our first direct contact and I was overwhelmed by you choosing my profile for a comment, here is an aspiring artist from a not well followed country - Finland- out of all places. "A.N.G.E.L. by Isac Elliot The lyrics are directed to you. And talking of Caribbean, I also dedicate to you an Icelandic major hit about exotic hot places "Bahama" by Ingó og veðurguðirnir. It was number one in Iceland for 8 consecutive weeks!!! No kidding. It is real for me as I am looking outside my window in ice cold and snowy Montreal. LOL And a song I dedicate to practically everybody who contacts me directly through Wikipedia "I Wish For You The World" by Alistair Griffin and is my true feeling and a nice wordplay I find to my user name and philosophy. "Do one act of kindness per day, you will touch the hearts of 365 people a year. Make one edit a day in Wikipedia, you might touch the hearts of millions a year.

I saw a large number of edits to Frederic William Henry Myers by an editor with just an IP address. I noticed a few issues with syntax, punctuation, and word choice, but I cannot judge the changes to content. I wonder if you feel like reviewing the edits. I had gone through the article a few months ago and thought I had left it in pretty good shape. I also asked User talk:Parkwells to review them. He said he would but that it was outside his area. In the meantime, I thought I would ask you, too. I thought you might be interested in Myers. CorinneSD (talk) 03:33, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
Hi - I do understand the concerns of the editor who is trying to remove the designer names from the article, but have tried to explain how Wikipedia works, and that the names are mentioned because they are cited in existing sources (a published book AND a museum website from a major exhibition on the subject!), but yes, I guess we will see how it goes.

Hello, thank you for your answer. Compared to the content I suggested on SwissLife TalkPage, I can now add the two missing data for 2013 figures (Revenue and Operating Income), with their reference, useful also for some of 2012 figures which have been restated by the company. I've updated the tabs on the TalkPage. Should I find new third-party sources, I will definitely add them to the primary ones I had suggested. In the meantime, do you think I can move on editing the entry?

Hello there Bill! I'm not sure if you are aware or not, but WP:SIG went from being a guideline to a policy a few months ago, and as such there are a couple issues with yours I would like to discuss. The first is your use of <font>
tags that are deprecated as of HTML 4.0 Transitional, are invalid in 4.0 Strict, and are not part of HTML5 at all. There is a section (WP:SIGAPP) in the policy that says we should try to avoid using deprecated code in our signatures. My bigger concern is that your signature is confusing per WP:SIGPROB where as your username is Wtwilson3 yet your signature says Bill W. The reason this is such a big concern for me is that I see you like to assist new editors that are using ((Help-me)) (Which I have a cool userbox to help monitor the category if you're interested) May I suggest changing your current signature:

Hi Wtwilson3,
I took a look at the comment you made to the Laporte Wiki site https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Wiki-edit-king/sandbox In reviewing the user's sources and my understanding of the finance industry, LaPorte CPA does seem to be noteworthy at a national level. All of the credible sources provided by the user are in fact large and noteworthy accounting publications. If there is additional information you could pass along I could respond to the author with comments for improvements. Seeing that LaPorte is mentioned in notible Accounting Publications year after year, wouldn't that provide credibility for posting? Thanks for your assistance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.38.99.229 (talk) 16:12, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
Hello :-)
Thank you for your message. The splendid editors of wikipedia have edited the page concerned having followed the rules and taken note of my comments on the talk page. I am still regarded with suspicion as regards my information and identity but I guess that's in the wiki rules too. It's hard to cite sources when they are personal - for instance: date of birth of son changed by someone who says they are the boy's mother - please read rules on neutrality etc. It's also hard to see blatant mistakes about your own life and to face the fact that on wikipedia anyone can change those details but you. As a university tutor I am very familiar with Harvard referencing and the like and I know one can't simply cite yourself or your mother-in-law: [ref: my nan, in the kitchen, 1970s]. Having had a discussion with my friends on facebook, many of whom have wikipedia pages about themselves, I found that some actors are simply writing their own pages and don't give a damn about the rules. I obviously spent too much time in Sunday school - I can not tell a lie. Not often anyway. The only thing left on the Paul McGann page which I think needs changing is the place of birth, which is wrong and I have explained about it in talk. I can't cite an article with the information in it. I know because I stood outside the house Paul was born in with his mother and she pointed it out to me. It would be better therefore if the article on wikipedia simply said he was born in Liverpool, UK because he was not born in Kensington. Picky I know but if that detail is in there then why not add the real detail? Why? Because then that means another sentence has to be written to explain that the family grew up in Kensington L6, 2 miles away from the house Paul was born in near Lark Lane L17.
Sorry for rabbiting on. I will definitely help with some basic editing on pages that need help. If I start that way I'll learn as I go along. It's an incredible job that the wiki editors and contributors do. Absolutely mind boggling but marvellous.
All the best Annie McG
