Many have started to oppose WP:JR. --George Ho (talk) 07:18, 5 March 2015 (UTC)
Hello - as at Talk:Martin Luther King Sr., would you please revert your move of that article as well as the other articles posted as technical requests? And would you also treat any other technical requests for comma deletions as controversial? As George Ho noted above, WP:JR is the subject of debate, and should not be considered uncontroversial. Thanks! Dohn joe (talk) 18:05, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
Hello - I finally returned to this issue, and went through your contribs to find the following. Would you please restore them to their previous versions? I realize it's quite a few, but it would go a long way towards restoring the status quo while the guideline gets sorted out. Thanks. Dohn joe (talk) 16:44, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

I seek your advise - if this is right to report openly about the misconduct of some user as I just did on this afd page based on my observations. I dont want to violate someone's rights, if any on any matter. Educationtemple (talk) 05:26, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

Educationtemple (talk) 14:45, 16 April 2015 (UTC) you can replace (or rather incorporate) the current contentHello Philg88. I writing an articles about the german computer pioneer Georg Nees in German [1] and English [2]. This articles are now, maybe, ready. My mentor on de:WP is looking for the last mistakes. I wrote the articel complet new in my one words. I also translated it and some wording in English are different to German. I need nothing to copie from the existing article Georg Nees. I just used the idea about the graphics "Gravel Stones/Schotter" and "Locken'". The name Locken is not used by Nees, somebody invented it years later. The correct name I found via Frieder Nake and in the first book by Nees in 1969. I would like to replace the old article - I think I can nothing from the old article incorporat. I also dit an update of the references and added many more. Beside, some of the old text is not copyright correct. I am not in a hurry and don't like to do something wrong. My question is: what do I have to do, that all things going correct? Regards- --Maxim Pouska (talk) 18:24, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) Hello again Maxim Pouska! You have certainly come to the right place for some very good advice, and I agree with Philg88 that the article is very, very good for a newbie article. :) Now just a comment about the code we use here on the WP: It is not strictly html, but rather a code unique to the WP. It takes some time to get used to all the intricacies of I and you don't have to learn it all at once. There is another new editor here who I have taught the beginnings of "code-knowledge" to. If you want to, you can follow the "lessons" and "teachings" that have developed on that user's talk page here. Maybe you can pick up some things there. :) Another very useful page for the code is the Help:Cheatsheet where all the most common code-things are collected, how they are used and what they are called. All the best, w.carter-Talk 18:12, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
Museums are dangerousI went to the Gotland Museum to get some of the last pictures for the article, and I took a stroll... Now, reading about a treasure is one thing, but getting close up and personal with 67 kilos of Viking treasure is something entirely different! :) Lights, camera, action, and a detour to the library as well. I'm mostly astonished that no one had written about it before. So I did, and got my first double DYK. Not 100% sure I got it right, I could only place the template on one of the articles, but I suppose that's the way it is. Anyway, if you have the time and feel so inclined, could you check the Spillings Hoard for me? Best, w.carter-Talk 22:18, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
... well things are getting really screwed up at the dyk nomination page. Care to take a look? w.carter-Talk 00:22, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
Phil got left outI know you helped, but only W.carter gets a star. :( On the bright side, I will buy you a real life beer instead. :) Now, I am wondering, which is worth more, a real life beer or a virtual barnstar?? This is a deep question. I would guess 2 beers = 1 barnstar. Hmmm, maybe 2 barnstars = 1 beer. Tricky. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 08:01, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

ANI ClosureI accept your closure and the trouting at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Possible_canvassing, but I want to ask: so it's okay to post on 100s of article talk pages like that? That seems disruptive at the least. EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 16:20, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

StadiumsDear Philg88, I added pages to Wikipedia about large, missing Chinese football stadiums, but I received a warning that they will delete those pages because I didn't add references to those pages. The problem is, I can't add the references they ask for, because then I will get banned. I don't know what to do anymore, some admins demand references, some admins demand I don't use references... What can I do? Worldofstadiums.com is the only site I know with all the information about those Chinese stadiums. Thank you for your response, Groundhopping.
Hello Mr Admin, Once admin Bbb23 here on Edit warring notice board, suggested us(me and Mar4d) to report on his talk page if anyone involves in unjustified edits and don't indulge in edit war. Curenlty he is on vacation so he suggested to contact other admin. So I'm asking for your intervention here, Mar4d is keep on moving page Stranded Pakistanis in Bangladesh to Bihari community in Bangladesh, while he is not having any evidence for him. The most common term used for those people is "Stranded Pakistanis" and used by The New York Times(US), BBC(UK), The Guardian(UK), Dawn(Pakistan), Express Tribune(Pakistan), Daily Sun(Bangladesh). These are leading news papers of respective nations. You can see our discussion and sources Talk page, Biharis in Bangladesh . That page was moved by another user, no one has consensus with current name. Mar4d is not providng any source for his claim. He is not even replying on Talk page, though he is online and reporting me elsewhere in charge of hounding. I was got blocked once for edit warring with him because he is very reluctant. So I'm asking for your help. Thank you. --Human3015 09:41, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Support request with team editing experiment projectDear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Wikipedia about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Research_team_editing), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Wikipedia community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of my project noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Wikipedia everywhere) Regards from User:Micru on meta.
SensitiveI appreciate what you said about sensitivity at/post the thread at WP:AN/I#User:DD2K aka "Dave Dial"'s Deeds at Talk:Hillary Rodham Clinton/April 2015 move request. Indeed I have to raise my hands to say that I have probably been as sensitive as anyone in the run up to the discussion. Since I proposed my failed RM a short time ago (which was ill advised mainly for its short length not fulfilling requirements and not for lack of quality) I know that I may have interpreted more things as being antagonistic than was represented by the reality but, in the run up to the RM, I certainly interpret dirty tricks on the part of some editors and presentation of loaded interpretations by others. I'm personally appalled at the situation and the rigging of results. I've put my reaction in discussion section of the RM and see no justification for the behaviour. In the AN/I several editors commented on sanctions that should be followed before one editor said that all should be trouted, 5 editors had said that some level of action should be taken without anyone opposing action altogether. In this case, and while I respect that you took a course of action in good faith, I certainly think that it was disruptive and I think it sends out all the wrong signals. It can tell editors that they can falsify findings with little fear of action being taken. As for me my actual !Vote in the case has been neutral as justified with an I think significant write up on weighing towards the "Hillary Clinton" side. There is nothing tendentious in my comments here. GregKaye 13:47, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
Your common.css pageHi; I notice that in User:Philg88/common.css you have the CSS rule .ambox-Orphan{display: inherit !important;}
- please note that there is an error in this (almost certainly copied from an old version of Template:Orphan#Visibility) which causes incorrect display in some browsers. To check this, visit this page and look at the second bullet (the one that precedes the text "This article is an orphan ..."). If this bullet is not in the same alignment as the other four, but displaced to the left, you can fix it by altering Template:Orphan#Visibility has been amended. --Redrose64 (talk) 19:37, 1 May 2015 (UTC) UTRS Account RequestI confirm that I have requested an account on the UTRS tool. Philg88 ♦talk RequestWell, I appreciate the work you do here. But I really believe that you shouldn't have blocked Premthanjavur (talk · contribs), yes he violated 3-rr but he was not alone to do that, this edit is not a copyvio, BLPvio, or vandalism, thus reverting this edit was not exempted from WP:3RR. I think that you should unblock him and protect the page instead since 2 editors[4][5] did disagreed with him anyway. I have seen that edit warring was accross multiple articles, but it was between these 2 editors at most. Maybe a warning would suffice. Thank you.
