Hello?I tried to delete the page, but it doesn't look like I can. I have never used this website before, so I really don't know what I'm doing, and the instructions are quite long. Sorry if I have upset you. Jason —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jvanderweele (talk • contribs) 04:15, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
I removed your redirect here because all it did was create a re-direct to a re-direct. The bot mis-tagged it as a copy (advised the bot's human here because I created the museum article from a merge of the founder's article, which I noted in the initial edit summary. It's more notable than he is. TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 04:44, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
Your tagging of BiographiconYo, would you care to explain your tagging of the article Biographicon on the talkpage? Suggestions as to which specific sections of the article need writing would be particularly appreciative. Although I am guilty of it myself, drive-by tagging without explanation is unhelpful. Regards,Skomorokh 16:31, 5 April 2008 (UTC) Michael RutterThank you for your pointer regarding the need for a third opinion. I am sorry for the confusion. can you look again at the discussion page on Rutter and tell me whether this is acceptable? KingsleyMiller (talk) 17:39, 5 April 2008 (UTC) The request for a 3PO on interpretation of a source was made by me in relation to a dispute about the source on the John Bowlby page. The disputed passage was also put in at least two other articles, including Michael Rutter. Kingsley first changed my request for a 3PO which has been changed back and then entered another 3PO on the identical point, which has been removed, and has now simply copied a chunk, but not all, of the discussion on the source to the Michael Rutter page, whilst saying he will not take part in the identical dispute in relation to it on John Bowlby but only in relation to Michael Rutter! All this games playing is causing alot of clutter and confusion and is simply a huge waste of time. I am endeavouring to keep the matter simple and easy to follow for the poor person who picks up the 3PO - unless they all run screaming! Fainites barley 18:59, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
I thought you were bored and going to bed? We agreed that the article did not sound encyclopedic. It sounds fine to me now. There is nothing in this article which is either 'tendentious' or for that matter 'contentious'. I feel Fainites has pulled the 'wool over your eyes' and that in order to decide whether the piece is OR or not you really need sight of the copy of the Rutter article Fainites has. Without it you really are editing 'blind' so to speak. The point about Rutter's work is that he helped children by identifying the ways in which the theory of 'maternal deprivation' harmed children. This is how he made his reputation. Now you are suggesting they should be left out! Rutter is a child psychiatrist. 'Attachment' is his middle name. He has identified the ways in which Bowlby was wrong. These should not be left out because they form the essence of his work in helping the lives of children. I cannot believe Fainites has written above that the biography should include, "Then some stuff about Rutters work on the nature/nurture - genes/environment stuff". If 'attachment' is not biological where does Fainites think it comes from? It is people like Fainites that make me feel like crying. What is the point of an encyclopedia? Sorry if this does not make sense. I really will go to bed now. kipKingsleyMiller (talk) 01:59, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Fainites barley 14:00, 6 April 2008 (UTC) Third Opinion on Cardiff as a primate cityHello, you recently gave a third opinion saying that Cardiff should not be on the list of Primate cities until a source is found. The thing is, there are no given sources for the hundreds of other cities on that page, so I feel the removal of Cardiff is giving undue weight, especially when it fufills the criteria to be a primate city Welshleprechaun (talk) 23:31, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Child PsychologyPlease could you leave my request for a THIRD PARTY opinion alone. You persist in saying that the references are original research when they are not. Why did you not look at the article before making your decision instead of continuing to repeat this assertion? A major problem with your intervention is that you have preconceived ideas about Child Psychology and this has hampered your judgment. For example there is absolutely no doubt 'monotropy' is an aspect of 'maternal deprivation'. There is absolutely no doubt that this theory is itself 'discredited'. (In the same way for example Robert Mugabe is 'discredited'). This is not a matter of opinion. This was one of the major achievements of Michael Rutter. Some would say it is down to Rutter we now talk in terms of primary carers instead of mother or father. Because you are not aware of this does not make the fact tendentious or controversial. My fear is that if I ask for help I will get somebody like yourself who does not really understand these issues and therefore make the same mistakes as you have done and the request would be pointless. KingsleyMiller (talk) 18:58, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
Why do you keep stating the piece is original research when if you looked at the article you would see it is not? Not even the other side disputes this! Surely you should have looked at the article before making the statement. The statement is wrong. So why keep repeating it? This is not about 'owning' the article or having an opinion it is simply a matter of checking. Why have you not checked? KingsleyMiller (talk) 19:15, 9 April 2008 (UTC) Forgive me but I may have misunderstood. Are you now saying my argument is with you not Fainities? Fainities has offered to e-mail the article. If you are setting up a new dispute that is fair enough. (But Fianities does not believe the work is OR because he or she has a copy) If you are not sure consult Fainties and get a copy otherwise please return the dispute as originally set out. KingsleyMiller (talk) 19:22, 9 April 2008 (UTC) PLEASE CAN YOU CLARIFY THISISSUE? KingsleyMiller (talk) 19:30, 9 April 2008 (UTC) October Sky ....Hi my name is Yanik from the band October Sky. I've notice that you were trying to help me at the same time as I was trying to understand Wikipedia. I wanted to move the : October_Sky_(band) page to October_sky_band since it was more official. I didn't want to make it harder for you guys but I didn't realize you were working on the page at the same time as me. I thought my internet was freezing and not SAVING the page. So that's when I saw (MOVE) fonction and tried to move it that way. I hope this will not cause any damaged to wikipedia or the band page.

Third opinion on GumstixThank you for your participation on the gumstix article as third opinion, your input is very apreciated. Actually User:Oskay is acting as a neutral party too, and discussion is ongoing to see how information could be rewritten in a neutral way, so you can participate further in the discussion if you wish to have another opinion on the improvement of the article, or abstain, as help already arrived :) Thank you again for your interest in mediating and improving Wikipedia Iunaw (talk) 19:56, 16 April 2008 (UTC) Thank youI wanted to thank you for the time you took at North Korea to help, tell me if you need a 3rd opinion any time, I'll be there.

I was pretty sure that conspiracy theory addition didn't belong, but having someone look at what was going on was very useful. In the same vein, thanks for helping maintain that page as it seems the other person has now moved on to trying to blank the talk page! Hopefully things will settle down there soon and we won't have to fuss with the page again. Mantisia (talk) 23:10, 21 April 2008 (UTC) Just to let you know - I removed the OR and replaced it with a section from a book by Holmes about Rutters contribution on the subject of MD. Fainites barley 22:34, 22 April 2008 (UTC) No. Your 3PO didn't work. neither did Vassyanas. Neither did the view of a Psychology PhD who looked at the Rutter paper for us. The trouble is - Kingsley just assumes that anyone who disagrees with him is part of a cabal or feminist conspiracy or acting in bad faith or something so its difficult to see how mediation would work. At least he's not quite so personally abusive as he used to be though. I might try a request for formal mediation though. Fainites barley 21:32, 24 April 2008 (UTC) 3rd opinionthanks!

The site has been around for 13 years, publishes most of the major scholars on the ancient Indus Valley civilization, and indeed is the major site for learning about the culture, used by scholars and students all over the world. It has won numerous awards. It is linked to from many educational websites, has been featured in the press and so on. While many site on the subject promote one ideology or another, it has remained very scientific and publishes the research or scholars at Haravard, the University of Wisconsin, The Tata Institute in Mumbai, the University of Helsinki and so on.

Anti-Americanism & ColinI made a complaint here [1]. Some of it involves stuff from before your involvement, but if you want to share any impressions, please feel free. Thanks for your efforts. Life.temp (talk) 08:57, 29 April 2008 (UTC) User/Admin Marskell & Anti-AmericanismHi... I've "chimed in" at the Talk page of the Anti-Americanism article, like you asked me to. And I have made it quite clear that I will be making no further contributions. User Marskell removed most of my edits, clearly in a tendentious manner. And with an uncivil comment. I made my edits in good faith. The way I see it, expanding the part about "Definitions and usage", the background and history of the word, might have been one way of providing the article with a more neutral ground. Trying to bridge a gap between Life.temp's and Colin4C's approach. The tendentious edit by user Marskell, and the fact that he is an administrator, have however made me think that I would be wasting my time by even trying to make any further contributions. I have stated my opinion about Marskell's bullying on the Talk page of that article. If there was some meaningful way I could report it I surely would. But it seems, from the procedures, that I would have to engage in a mock "dialogue" with a bully, a scoundrel provided with administrative powers. That is of course meaningless. ΑΩ (talk) 12:31, 29 April 2008 (UTC) I would just like to add that one particular part of user Marskell's edit represents a very clear instance of highly biased censorship. The article is about Anti-Americanism, and the larger part of the text that has been removed concerned the very origin of the idea. I made a reference to this website: Encyclopedia of the American Foreign Relations. There is an article there - Political Parties (early 19th century) - clearly stating that the Federalist Party was "framed as the Anti-American party" by the Republican (i.e. Democratic-Republican Party) press, after the Battle of New Orleans. A well referenced article, and I'll say that website seems to be a highly reliable source. But like I've said, the individual in question seems to be a long-time editor of that article and an admin. So the way I see it, I'll simply have to assume that his "soviet censorship" somehow conforms to the spirit of this place. Sorry about that. ΑΩ (talk) 16:42, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
trademarks"Do not use the ™ and ® symbols, or similar, unless unavoidably necessary for context (for instance, to distinguish between generic and brand names for drugs)" This sentence is poorly written, and thus up for interpretation. It would be wonderful if you could simply provide one real world example of when these symbols could be used. --Chunk Champion (talk) 03:56, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Hello, I'm back after a long hiatus. I just wanted to let you know (as someone who's been a good steward of the Renaissance fair page) that I've nominated the Renaissance Pleasure Faire of Southern California page for speedy deletion as spam. I've been looking over the individual fair pages, and while most of them are pretty thin, this one is outright ... well, I don't know quite what to say. Every one of its footnotes (88 of them!) is a link, and every one I've followed leads to a commercial advertising site. It hasn't got much content, either, mostly just list after list of acts and merchants. I hope I'm not being harsh, but ... geez. Artemis-Arethusa (talk) 14:59, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
discussion archival policy?Hi there, I'm not sure I agree the edit wasn't constructive. If you examine those pages and pages of arguing, you will notice that the current top-level organisers of that website have taken turns to come in and spam their website on the page, and engage in circular arguments defending various acts such as: putting their website URL #1 in the list of external sites; creating a new external links category of "other" to advertise their website; editing the history section to advertise their website at the top of the page. What has frustrated me and others on that page is not just their blinkered sense of being the best, but that they rotate their core organisers to give the appearance of consensus in the discussion page. I have noticed other discussion pages in wikipedia eventually get archived. And frankly I think that they have figured since they cant get a wikipedia page setup ( it was deleted ), they can't advertise their link on the page, they will just dominate any other discussion with pages and pages of the same thing over and over. Addressing that imbalance was the goal of this edit. They've yet again left, no doubt to return with the same rotating furor, and we are left with a discussion page that appears to have nothing but unbalanced representation of a single website. So what to do? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.167.137.103 (talk) 20:24, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Problems_with_the Van_ResistanceDear User:HelloAnnyong There is something wrong in the whole process. It is "supposedly" Wikipedia is an encyclopedia; all articles must follow Neutral point of view, Verifiability, and No original research. The current version of the article is owned by couple of Authors that WP:OWN the article and do not let any editor involved with it. There is a current exchange between another Administrator which involved with the issue, please look at these exchanges. User_talk:Khoikhoi#Problems_with_the_Van_Resistance and User_talk:Seemsclose#Re:_Problems_with_the_Van_Resistance. It has been told to me to negotiate with people. If you read the responses, my edits, without any credible source provided forward, are rejected by MEOW. I'm questioning the validity of whole process and integrity of the people involved to this process. ALL MY editions, which provide full citations, and use WP:style guide to help other editors reach the sources I use, is being favored over a person who keeps the article as it is. My improvements can be reached at this page User:Seemsclose/Van Resistance. I'm in a position to think, If one editor rejects, and in the position of responsibility (Admins, third opinions) do not take responsibility, an article can be kept forever in poor condition (poor= no Verifiability) at the Wikipedia. I'm personally asking to you, which version, (the [version] or my version) is your personal choice. --Seemsclose (talk) 16:05, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
Oh wellDisheartening isn't it? There was a point when it actually looked as if mediation might get going - with sources and two completely neutral mediators. But no...... There is an enduring problem with Wikipedias inability to recognise that in some circumstances, forms of dispute resolution that rely on assumptions of good faith and willingness to put your cards on the table cannot work and something else is required. In the more popular subjects its not such a problem as there will usually be a preponderance of sensible editors. (Mind you, that didn't work with attachment pages last year when the whole lot were run by one attachment therapist with 6 sockpuppets for over a year). It requires an unnatural degree of perseveration to keep going. At least the Attachment theory page is looking alot better now. Thanks for all your efforts anyway. I hope you will still be around to help. Do you feel up to tackling Michael Rutter again? Fainites barley 17:17, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
"don't use brs"Why not? Those pharagraphs are a little short and it's a bit ugly for them to stand alone, but also some of them are related to each other.

Have fun dealing with the "reformed" vandal, who has trouble both with reading source material and understanding NPOV. Your message was unnecessary, by the way. dfg (talk) 05:02, 23 July 2008 (UTC) A serious question...Can I ask you a serious question? For a moment (I'm only asking a moment), separate yourself from the rules of Wikipedia and truthfully respond to this. Do you support the Westboro Baptist Church and their message? Answer on my Talk Page if you don't want your answer known to the public. But, seriously...I've seen you revert a number of edits to both the WBC and the Fred Phelps pages, and they all seem to cancel out information that goes against their beliefs. I begin to suspect that you have a bias, coupled with a degree of history on Wikipedia, which can sadly nullify your own views against those of the general public. Please understand, I'm not talking about maintaining NPOV. I'm simply addressing already neutral edits. I've had this discussion before with other editors, and the issue seems to be in the interpretation of "neutral". I don't mean to confuse "neutral" with "majority", but damn.....again, step out of the guidelines of what Wikipedia considers neutral for one moment and you'll more than likely find that the viewpoints you seem to defend are indeed the minorities. The "neutral" view of this group happens, by definition, to work against their cause. Please, understand that I want Wikipedia to flourish as an encyclopedia. But, to outright DENY majority consensus on an issue is NOT encyclopedic. The FACT is that this group is primarily viewed as a hate group, or a media-specific agenda-based group, and I feel (I'm sure, along with many others) that portraying them as 50/50 with the viewpoints of the public is both misleading and counterproductive to society itself. Again, please don't see this as an anti-WBC comment. Personally, I hate this group, but the point I'm presenting is that the neutral viewpoint of this group is in fact a spiteful one. I ask you to distinguish between "neutral" and "majority" in this case, in order to understand my point. Swamilive (talk) 04:16, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Hospitality Service talk pageSee http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AHospitality_service&diff=214494273&oldid=214483230. I don't know why you removed all the interesting stuff, and only left the painful discussion of bewelcome deserving to be in the article or not. I get headaches reading the arguments from both sides. Please compare the archive page with the page itself: imo, the archive is a lot more interesting. Especially, the member count table (that would need an update from time to time).
About bewelcome or not: For the sake of information I would not mind to have it in the list, no matter if it has or deserves its own article. At the time the discussion was started, it was maybe justified to remove it. Right now it has 4000+ members - I don't know if there is any magic number it has to cross. In any case, I would prefer if any wiki material about this network would be written from a "neutral" point of view - so, better not myself.

TagsHi. In answer to the question you asked on my talk page, the "Tags" section is a convenient place to put any clean-up tags without disfiguring the article and making it less attractive for readers by putting them at the top of the article. In this way, other editors still get the necessary information from the tag, but readers and users of the encyclopedia aren't inconvenienced.

There is currently a question of whether he is notable enough to be included on Wikipedia, and whether the information about the same DUI case Emily Carlson was involved in should be included.--Videojournalist (talk) 14:23, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
HumorThank you for enlightening me in Wiki rules and traditions. I will pay more attention to what is acceptable now.

Should one report back to the 3O page, should one place warnings, should one resign, seeing one is "taking sides" or may be accused of it? Example Somali people.

Greetings. To be perfectly clear, I am the one who asked for the 30, as editor User:Flyingtiger is continually reverting the article to include the conspiracy theory, and removing disputed and fact tags. See [here,] [here,] [and here]. Please to note also that User:Flyingtiger will not allow other editors to make any changes in the article. For example, see [here] [and here]. It should be obvious that I am not the only contributing editor that suggests the conspiracy theory should be toned down in this biography, such as this editors notation:
Opinion pleaseI'd like your input on the discussion taking place at Let_Freedom_Ring:_Winning_the_War_of_Liberty_over_Liberalism. I believe there is a wp:undue issue here. Niteshift36 (talk) 16:21, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Its just that if i have a higher quality image say from a scan i usually add it to imageshack so there is a backup available due to the reason that i dont save the images i upload on my hardrive. Salavat (talk) 15:19, 10 August 2008 (UTC) PA Renaissance FaireHey there, Sorry about all the links; I'm new at this and should have read through all the guidelines before editing. (One of my flaws: act first, think later.) I know I'm a conflict of interest, but the page is very bare. I was thinking of adding a section with the history of the Faire (not promoting, but how it got started, major changes along the way, etc.) just because it's something people may be interested in. What do you think? PARenFaire (talk) 13:16, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Harsh RewriteWhy be so uptight about Wikipedia regulations? My article on David Arkenstone was full bodied and flowed and had much more information than you skimmed it down to. Okay, add references in, but don't hack it to pieces like some crazed wiki-correct lunatic. PaulJackson12 (talk) 11:29, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
Animal PlanetThey weren't "unconstructive". Everything I posted is true. I dare you to find another show on Animal Planet that has cats and NOT dogs on it. and i dont mean tigers and lions and stuff. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomcat4680 (talk • contribs) 17:14, August 19, 2008 How were they "pushing point of view" with "original research"? look at the list of programs and you'll clearly see there's 10 shows about dogs and only 1 show about cats list of programs broadcasted by Animal Planet —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomcat4680 (talk • contribs) 17:35, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
Spaghetti CatI only meant for it as a redirect to the Mike & Juliet article, nothing more, so I have replaced it as a redirect. Nate • (chatter) 23:07, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
North KoreaI was discussing the standard of living among the North Korean poor -- this was relevant to the discussion about the article itself.

Delete harappa.comWhy don't you go ahead and delete the entry on my website Harappa.com which you recently edited and have tried to flag from the beginning? I have made no secret with my username (Harappa2) of editing the original article when it was posted to make it conform to Wikipedia policies. In my opinion the site is fully worthy of being included as various external sources have testified, but it is no fun to have this citation that there is a conflict of interest on top of the entry. It is amazing to me that the site cannot be mentioned in Wikipedia although so many people have stolen images from my site and posted them on Wikipedia falsely claiming that they are in the public domain. But so be it. Our purpose is education. Thank-you. Harappa2 (talk) 00:14, 18 September 2008 (UTC) Madden CurseHi, could you give us your opinion on this issue. It really effects an issue on Madden NFL#Madden Curse, which we previously discussed.[5] Thanks. -- StarScream1007 ►Talk 16:36, 18 September 2008 (UTC) Democracy in NKHi HelloAnnyong. Firstly please don't take my actions wrongly - I am by no means trying to tip the article towards the DPRK viewpoint I just thought that along with "single party state" we should mention their showcase democracy. I actually added the phrase "single party state" because the previous phrase "some describe NK as stalinist" was rather weak but I am now thinking that I should balance it up by adding at least something about Democratic process. Do you know anything about Democracy in the country? AreaControl (talk) 23:14, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
Martin Weinek and Kaspar Capparoni translation?Good evening to you and Greetings from Campora San Giovanni. I write you regarding these two articles of a note television series: Inspector Rex. Now thanks to Rai International it is also disembarked in Japan, and Weinek (pronounced Vaynek) is the veteran of the Austrian original series, now the new member of the Italian series. He is also an excellent wine-grower and agricultural entrepreneur. Kaspar Capparoni is the new entry of the series, but he has already worked and works in other famous productions and with directors imporanti among which Dario Argento. Naturlamente if you will help me in this, I will reciprocate the favor that you will do me translating a biography or a geography in Sicilian, French and Italian: In how much on the aforesaid editions they are for biographer and geographer to be precise. In attends him of one certain answer of yours I send you the regards from Campora San Giovanni, my village native and the anticipated thanks. Thanks still!--Lodewijk Vadacchino (talk) 19:09, 21 September 2008 (UTC) De factoI gave a reply on "de facto dictatorship". I'm not trying to get at you, HelloAnnyong I just have the opinion that defining government as "de facto" is not encyclopaedic. I constantly remove things I know to be true because they look unprofessional and this is one of them. Anyway see my comment AreaControl (talk) 22:25, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

TranslationI happened to see 日本穣's talk page. How about this? ...a lot of forum members thought his posts mentioning about sex were inappropriate on the single men's boards and made criticizing comments. Oda Mari (talk) 06:08, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
