Reply to QuestionFirstly, cheers on the reply, i hadn't thought I'd get a personal reply, Secondly, please feel free to post your comments on my HMUN entry, either on its talk page or here (or if they are easy pick out (i.e. not completely mixed in with my own comments) just edit the entry and I'll deal with it In answer to your question, i just find the point that the Wiki way of effects, which is said to be easier than HTML, most definetly isn't - it starts out easy(ish) but gets worse very quickly. I taught myself GuideML (the beeb's form of HTML) pretty quickly and I definetly found it easier than the system here I'm struggling to remember the rest of my mini comment, so I'll end my message there for now Cheers Nbb Nosebagbear (talk) 19:37, 19 August 2012 (UTC) The Signpost: 20 August 2012
Regarding edits to Dougie Brimson's pageHi Jethrobot, In the first reference, the sentence was referring to Dougie Brimson's actions on the forum, and the response of forum members, would the forum not be the correct citation in this instance? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mistressminerva (talk • contribs) 08:53, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
Request for discussionHi. I'm the new editor you helped in Teahouse. When I was translating the article Culture of Singapore, I found the article has quite a lot problems. I have mentioned them on the talk page but nobody noticed that. Could you go to the talk page and help fix those problems or give some suggestions?Professorjohnas (talk) 14:37, 21 August 2012 (UTC) This has been raised at ANI. I presume you checked this to insure there is no copyvio? Are you aware of Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Trademarks? In any case, I've reverted you as I believe there is copyvio. I'd like to know what checks you did as obviously you were clearly sure there was no copyvio. Dougweller (talk) 16:14, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
"Sam" SlyfieldCharles O. Slyfield was my grandfather. He always went by C. O. Slyfield. "Samp" was a nickname. I don't know where the "Sam" came from, but googled Disney info and saw it there, too. I'm just trying to take the "Sam" out of this to make it right. I fixed it once, but someone undid it. Thanks for any help/guidance you can provide.

I must admit I am frustrated with the responses I have been receiving regarding my one page Wikipedia submission about a week ago. I have been labeled as fraudulent, with fraudulent submissions, and even so far as proclaimed to be affiliated with programs that either did not exist or are fraudulent. Everything I have submitted was referenced with legitimate citations, and even the citations were challenged. Given the article is regarding myself, I was trying very hard to be as objective as possible ... and yet I was attacked as someone who was merely trying to compose a self-laudatory Wikipedia insertion. All I was trying to do was to state the facts ... nothing more. I would appreciate your help, even if it means compensation for your assistance ....given you know your way around this a whole lot better than me .... as the lingo is quite foreign ... and it feels like it would be far easier for someone with experience to actually finalize this project. Thanks so much for your time and assistance. Dr. Edward F.

When you recently edited Edward Francis Anhalt, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page International University (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Jim BonacciThanks, but I think I can create a page like that myself. You can help though. Heymister14 (talk) 19:27, 28 August 2012 (UTC)heymister14 Speedy deletion nomination of Jim BonacciA tag has been placed on Jim Bonacci, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time. If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Tgeairn (talk) 19:50, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

From Atalanta the HuntressThank you for including my edit of the article "The Mythic Tarot". I took care to include all the info and most of the language from the existing article; which is therein under my sub-heading "The Mythic Tarot and Jung". As presently posted, the previous iteration remains entire, with my edit of the same article following it on the same page. This is redundant and unwieldly. I did my major re-write in response to Wikipedia's red flags requesting editting, which called the original article too promotional; as it certainly was/is; also repetitive, preachy, not well written. Alas, when I tried to post my edit, it seemed to be blocked; (by the original authors?) All this I've endeavored to communicate to editors, via talk "why this page should not be deleted."
As a professional Tarot reader of 40 years experience, I've long admired The Mythic Tarot's unique contribution to the modern interpretation of the Tarot. I have no personal acquaintance or connexion with its creators that I'm aware of. Although many books on the subject are written, they tend to be authored by those who have designed a deck themselves. I'm not aware of any scholarly book about the Tarot which provides a comprehensive survey and critique of the many decks which have been designed since I began using the Tarot. I suspect that the only real authority on the comparative value of such various Tarot designs must be the professional Tarot readers, who use them the most, with the deepest understanding of the subject. By and large, professional Tarot readers do not author a lot of scholarly books. Yet the subject is one of great general notability; both for the professionals and for the millions of amateurs whose lively interest in the Tarot has spawned this entire industry of Tarot reading, Tarot decks, and books on the subject. Excuse if anything herein duplicates any previous message from me, or any other errors in posting. I'm just learning my way around this process. --Atalanta the Huntress (talk) 10:58, 5 September 2012 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Atalanta the Huntress (talk • contribs) 10:50, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Although it's NOT "my page"; that is, until I re-wrote it on Saturday. Once again, strictly due to stumbling across it (while searching for a copy of the deck to buy); and responding to Wiki's request for editting. One factor I can report: in 2001, the price of the now out-of-print Mythic Tarot deck was $16 on amazon.com, for a used set including the deck and book together. (I was shopping for it then, but it didn't fit my budget at the time.) The book is now still widely available at discount, but the deck itself now can only be had for $100+. Who would go to that much trouble to find and purchase a particular Tarot design, that's been out of print for ten years? The answer is simple. Only a professional Tarot reader. The masses of amateur curosity shoppers, who support the continual publication of new "fad" Tarot decks, would never think of it. What could possibly render a particular deck, seen only a couple of times, decades ago, so important? There are plenty of forgettable, un-noteworthy Tarot designs that have been churned out in the past couple of decades. This is not'Bold text' one of them. That it is a particular choice of professional psychic counsellors, I believe can be documented. To see a good example, and also to view the designs themselves and the way they're interpreted, please visit http://www.angelsandguardians.com/ and click the link at the top of the page "Free Tarot". (This is NOT my site. It's another one I stumbled upon Saturday while searching for the deck itself.) This site is an excellent example of the empowering, self-examination encouraged by responsible practitioners who favor this particular deck. While I intend to familiarize myself with your policy on this, I think it's also important to consider how things work in the field which you are attempting to document. I must ask who could possibly be considered an expert authority on Tarot, other than professional Tarot readers? Would you not accept the opinion of professional motor mechanics as authoritative, in a question of automobile repair? Are Tarot readers not looked on with comparable respect? And would such an attitude concern a lack of respect for the art of divination? The art of divination is the subject here. It is the ancestor of every "major" religion today. Yet a "disreputable" label has been fostered by clerical establishments, who have in the past not been above genocide against any source of spiritual guidance which they do not control. Notwithstanding that divination is well-documented in the Bible, was practiced & respected by the ancient patriarchs thereof. The Bible itself is commonly used as a tool of divination, i.e. opening to a random passage: a practice called "bibliomancy", which is traditionally encouraged by Christian clerics. If commercial fortune-telling services sometimes seem to earn a shabby reputation, that must place an even greater responsibility on those who provide the public with reliable, unbiased information: to enable those seeking responsible, empowering divination to tell the difference. Just as the scientific community must protect the public from quacks and snake-oil medicine shows. Because there is a difference. Divination is as old as medicine. It has never gone away, through centuries of burning times and religious persecution. It exists in every nation and culture. There are right and wrong ways to approach it. This is a discussion which merits Wikipedia's participation, where appropriate. --Atalanta the Huntress (talk) 10:25, 6 September 2012 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Atalanta the Huntress (talk • contribs) 10:09, 6 September 2012 (UTC) Hi Jethro, me again: Another excellent example of empowering, thinking-person's divination which has been greatly developed (as well as more & more widely published) in the last decade or so is the article at http://freewillastrology.com/beauty/beauty.main217.shtml (Rob Brezny's plea for sanity regarding recent predictions for some kind of massive global shift to come in Dec 2012.) I've been a fan of his astrology column for years, and met him once at an event. His astrology column has gone from underground papers to major periodicals coast to coast. There is a Wikipedia entry about him. Apologies if this is a lot of verbiage from me. But, as you may have perceived, it's a subject I'm passionate about. --Atalanta the Huntress (talk) 10:45, 6 September 2012 (UTC) TalkbackHello, I JethroBT.

Tarot stuffHi, Jethro FYI, here are some links which provide references/examples that a) Tarot is widely used by professional psychotherapists & other certified counsellors (i.e. with academic degrees in psychology; not just psychic readers); and b) That the Mythic Tarot is particularly favored by such counsellors. These are the links: http://www.tarotschool.com/ElementalArray.html http://www.tarottherapy.co.uk/cittprosp.htm http://transpersonalpodcast.org/2010/09/06/hillary-anderson--using-the-tarot-in-therapy.aspx http://donnafisherjackson.com/services/tarot.html Here's also a link to Tarotpedia's entry on the Mythic Tarot, of general interest re: this deck's considered notability among independent authorities on the Tarot: http://www.tarotpedia.com/wiki/Mythic_Tarot Hope this is helpful. I'm not sure of your usual procedure for references, but I'll paste these to my edit of the page also. Thanks for your interest in this issue.
