Question about the removal of FileOne from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_personal_information_managers

Hi Lonaowna, You removed FileOne organizer stating it was dead. I'm the developer of FileOne organizer/treegonizer and it has never been dead at all. Can you put FileOne back into your list? It is a commercial product now. The website is https://www.treegonizer.com. Do you need more information about the product? If you search on Youtube for FileOne organizer you will see more details about FileOne and that it is actually alive ;-). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.101.128.67 (talk) 13:00, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! List of personal information managers has been trimmed down quite considerably. It now only contains applications that have their own Wikipedia article. So if we wanted to include Treegonizer/FileOne to the list, it first should be considered Notable and we should then create an article about the software. This is in line with WP:NOTDIRECTORY.

Also have a look at Talk:List of personal information managers#Redlinks. If you think Treegonizer/FileOne is notable (i.e. there are multiple third-party sources available), it would be possible to create an article about it.

If you want to discuss this further, I suggest you open a discussion at Talk:List of personal information managers.

Controversies' section in Gaijin

Sorry, but I'm afraid it is against the rules of Wikipedia to take that blog as an authoritative source, page on Wikipedia does not add anything in that regard. As far as I can see, accordingly to this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Blogs_as_sources, we need a source from outside the Internet. I will be happy to get a bit of such information. Which court made that decision? When? Such stuff is easy to find and to show. When it actually happened, of course. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.24.23.177 (talk) 14:21, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I disagree. See Talk:Gaijin_Entertainment#Controversies_section_has_no_authoritative_sources. Lonaowna (talk) 14:32, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Re Chromium browser

Hi Lonaowna, can you please provide a source to support your claim that " it's still is called "Adobe Flash Player".. just uses another plugin interface"? My source says: "Pepper Flash Player is maintained by Google, and is newer than Adobe Flash Player. Adobe currently still provides security fixes for Adobe Flash Player. Google provides newer features in Pepper Flash Player. Pepper Flash Player can currently only be used with Chromium (and with Chrome)." https://wiki.debian.org/PepperFlashPlayer Dusty1000 (talk) 08:35, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dusty, of course:

• If you go to chrome://plugins/ in a Chrome install without installing any additional plugins, you will see "Adobe Flash Player"
• On their website, Adobe offers (for Windows and OS X) "Flash Player for Opera and Chromium - PPAPI"[1]
• Official Chrome release notes: "This release contains an update to Adobe Flash Player..."[2]

I think the Debian wiki just uses "Pepper Flash Player" as an abbreviation for "(Adobe) Flash Player using PPAPI". The statement that Adobe has nothing to do with the Pepper plugin shipped by Google is just plain not true.

RE question on vandals

Hello fellow Lonaowna! :) Yes, there is a solution to the vandalism problem. You can report persistent vandals to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. But before reporting, the user must have been given enough warnings on their talkpage, escalating from the mildest to the strongest. To give warnings on the talkpage of the vandal, you can use the predefined templates {{subst:uw-vandalism1}}, {{subst:uw-vandalism2}}, {{subst:uw-vandalism3}} and {{subst:uw-vandalism4}} secuentially (you use first 1, then 2, then 3, then 4). After the fourth warning has been given, you can go to "Administrator intervention against vandalism" and say for example:

• {{IPvandal|IP address}} vandalized after final warning ~~~~
• {{Vandal|username}} vandalized after final warning ~~~~

You use IPvandal or Vandal depending on if the user is anonymous (e.g. 123.123.123.123) or a registered user. You can find the complete list of warnings at Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace. The list is huge but the most important messages are the "uw-vandalism" ones.

To summarize:

• You find somebody vandalized a page. You post {{subst:uw-vandalism1|Article}} on their talkpage ("Article" is the name of the vandalized article).
• The user continues to vandalize the same or other article(s). You post {{subst:uw-vandalism2|Article}} on their talkpage.
• The user vandalizes again. You post {{subst:uw-vandalism3|Article}} on their talkpage.
• The user continues vandalizing. You post {{subst:uw-vandalism4|Article}} on their talkpage.
• The user vandalizes for the fifth time. You post a report to "Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism". An admin will come around to block him.

See for example the talkpage of a user that was warned several times, then a report was issued, and then the user was blocked: User_talk:131.109.81.223.

I hope all this helps you. Ask me again if you have doubts. --Anna Lincoln (talk) 09:12, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

hey, sorry about the links that redirected to the same page, I was trying to start a separate page for ExtUSB, but people seem to like having a ridiculously long page.

BF3 Wii U version

Any particular reason you decided to remove a section of the page? Muskeato 15:52, 10 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry for not explaining. I thought this was not much more than speculation. I just reread the source and it looks like it's actually quite concrete about the Wii U. Looks like I misread it! I'm really sorry for removing the section without any further research. Lonaowna (talk) 16:22, 10 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(CrossFit) Thanks for kicking me in the butt

Thanks for having the courage to stand up and tell me that my references were crap. Sometimes it's difficult to be bold like that. The article has been significantly improved thanks to your tags. --WikiTryHardDieHard (talk) 02:44, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks so much for your new references! They improve the article a lot. Sorry if I was a bit rude when removing the old ones, I didn't really look in to who placed them and I assumed it had been someone with a commercial incentive.

Thanks again for your work! Lonaowna (talk) 08:07, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I completely understand. I must admit that at first I was a little offended, but creating a better Wikipedia is much more important than maintaining my ego. I think it's good to be blunt with each other when accuracy is on the line. --WikiTryHardDieHard (talk) 15:10, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Couldn't agree more. Keep up the good work! Lonaowna (talk) 15:32, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Windows Server 2008 support

Hi.

Actually, the sentence that you reverted was half-correct. RTM is unsupported, per your own source. Support for service pack levels before SP2 ended 29 April 2011. Except, there is no SP1, am I right?

Thanks for the reply, I understand. Next time please leave a short comment in the edit description, so everyone knows why you undid it (I could not immediately see that it was vandalism). Thanks again! Lonaowna (talk) 18:31, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. I was undoing a lot of additions and I didn't take the time to add edit summaries for each one. My mistake. Helpsome (talk) 21:06, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not to rain on your parade...

Re. "free rein" vs. "free reign": It's true that "reign" means "rule" or "dominion" or the like; but the expression "free rein" comes from the days when horse transportation was the rule. If you kept the reins tight, you had a lot of control over the horse; if you held them loosely or let go of them altogether, then the horse could do whatever it wanted. Thus giving someone "free rein" meant giving them lots of autonomy; keeping them on a "tight rein" meant that you were keeping close control.

The phrase's spelling is discussed at Grammarist, at Oxford Dictionaries, and at the NYT's newsroom blog. — Ammodramus (talk) 14:42, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry for not properly researching! Thanks for the lesson! :) Lonaowna (talk) 14:48, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No problem! I only wish I could write in Dutch (or any other non-English language) half as well as you can in English. — Ammodramus (talk) 15:39, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your kind words. My English is okay... but like you showed me, there is always more to learn! And trust me, it is much more useful to know English than Dutch nowadays. ;) Lonaowna (talk) 16:00, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

LNB and Noise Figure

I tweaked the LNB section on Noise Figures. The main problem seemed to have been that the article was less than clear. It is basically the input signal to noise ratio divided by the output signal to noise ratio (Noise Factor) and is expressed as a dB value if it is the Noise Figure. It is a ratio of ratios but without that point, the article didn't make much sense. Jmccormac (talk) 12:28, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot! This makes it much clearer.

I edited the section because I misread it the first time and thought it was wrong, but when I read the Noise Figure article I found out that it was right.

With your edit it is immediately clear, even without reading the other article! Lonaowna (talk) 13:20, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Windows 10

None of the sources support your claim that Windows 10 only runs on systems with UEFI firmware and forbids use on BIOS firmware. OEMs making officially licensed Windows 10 devices must build them to Microsoft's standards, which include the requirement for use of UEFI firmware with Secure Boot enabled, as with Windows 8. ViperSnake151  Talk  19:32, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This source clearly says:

The presentation (via Venture Beat), named "Minimum System HW Requirements & Compatibility for Windows Platforms", states the screen size, RAM, storage, graphics and firmware mentioned to run Windows 10. For PCs, the OS would need the UEFI 2.3.1 firmware, ...

It does not say anything about only being valid for OEMs or new pcs. So either this source is incorrect (which it can surely be), but in that case you will need to replace it with another one that says that UEFI is not required. Lonaowna (talk) 19:42, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2K resolution page

Hey, Lonaowna, we helped work on the 2K_resolution page and help it get to a properly edited and cited state, however another user continues to return to the page to reedit 1080p back into the page even after being told repeatedly to view the talk page. Do you mind contacting wikipedia administration about this issue? I've sent an email myself, but it appears we can't get this user to stop vandalizing the page, them claiming hijacking and starting an edit war. The editor is ElkSalmon. I've let multiple messages on the users talk page as well. What can be done about this issue, do you know? Franbunnyffxii (talk) 14:27, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Highly controversial" edits

Hi why do you keep reverting all of my edits? Thanks and best wishes — Preceding unsigned comment added by Donaldgloveriskermit (talk • contribs) 14:33, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. You can't just add "highly controversial" to a bunch of articles without explaining why it is highly controversial and citing sources that back up that claim. Just dumping that statement on a page doesn't improve it in any way. Lonaowna (talk) 14:43, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Izenpe

The article Izenpe has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:22, 17 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Paint.net

Hello.

Earlier today, I noticed Born2bgratis and Joshua Issac changes to the Paint.net. Although I disagree with any sort of capitalization, what you did actually takes it too far: There is no call for changes cases in quotations and source titles.

Please take it to the talk page, and whatever you do, leave the source titles and quotations intact. (No objection against using {{sic}} template.)

Also, which part of MOS:TM says ".NET" is okay? Actually, the way I read it, it says "avoid: TIME, KISS, ASUS, The PLAYERS Championship", "use: Time, Kiss, Asus, The Players Championship" and "Capitalize IBM, IKEA, as initialisms".

Hello! and Note on Minor Edits

Hi there Lonaowna! I'm a fellow Wikipedia, and I recently noticed the numerous cleanup and improvement efforts you've made (especially on some pages that I watch); thank you for all of your hard work and effort.

I noticed that you're pretty diligent about marking most of your edits as major, and reserving minor edits for a very small minority. I did notice that you've made some edits that change hyperlinks or content that doesn't actually fit into the definition of minor edits, but have marked them as minor. I just wanted to mention it, as minor edits should only be reserved for fixing misspellings and other typographical errors, minor formatting errors, rearrangement of text, that do not change the content or meaning of the article in any way (including hyperlinks inside or outside of Wikipedia).

Not to worry, no need to go back and change any of your previous minor edits, but please keep this in mind for future edits. If anything isn't clear about this, please see the Wikipedia page on minor edits or feel free to ask for clarification - sometimes I have to refer to that myself!

Cheers and thanks much!
