Why did you delete the edit to Charter School of Wilmington? It was important — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.177.161.141 (talk) 21:13, 14 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hey I saw you have marked Kyle McMahon as debated for deletion. He has had a lot of coverage, not just around here (Delawarean here) in News Journal, Middletown Transcript, etc but nationally as well (Washington Post, NY Times, etc). He's had 2 national / international releases, as noted in the bio and is with one of the 4 major labels (Warner Borthers). He's had recent airplay on MTV, been on 4 Oprah shows, trended on Twitter, was in an ESPN documentary about managing about a pro golfer at the US Open, works with some of the biggest names in the business, was the MTV Rock the Vote artist for Delaware and is now on a national campaign with 2 well known figures standing up for fatherlessness. If that's not worthy of inclusion I'm not sure what is. We follow his career closely, obviously, as the coverage I've seen and the stuff he's doing is phenomenal. Myself and a few other "fans" / supporters took great care in picking out the best sources for the article before we submitted it for this very reason. You can also see two other long time editors reviewed it and approved it. Just wanted to give you some additional info. (sorry if I'm not doing this right, newbie here) FeerTheDeer FeerTheDeer (talk) 15:32, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Could you add some of those links from these national newspapers to the article? That would help demonstrate notability. I did a quick Google search and could find nothing. I am not up on current pop culture, but I didn't see any records that reached national charts, a criteria for WP:MUSICBIO), nor anything on television that reached WP:ENT(Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions."). Not sure how the blogging is perceived with regard to Notability. IMHO, these days lots of social media coverage nor appearances on a few shows (as opposed to starring, creating, directing, or producing) reach notability. Nevertheless, I thought I would flag this and let other, more seasoned editors review. Wkharrisjr (talk) 15:55, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Would be glad to. Will work on that tomorrow. I assume if I do that you would reconsider your vote? Thanks again for the guidance here. FeerTheDeer (talk) 07:31, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good work on Newport, Delaware. A couple more citations would make it great work! Have you ever looked at Brandywine Creek (Christina River). I keep on meaning to go there and finish it up! Thanks. Smallbones (talk) 21:23, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just a point

You may wish to look here. I'm not flipped out by what you did, but it just seems that the process of continual knowledge improvement would have been better served by not having the Talk page blanked. Maybe there's more to it than I'm seeing. It's okay to be wrong once in a while! -- Thekohser 15:42, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry 'bout that! I didn't mean to erase the talkpage, just retract a note I added. I'm realtively new here and still learning the ropes (some things are not immediately intuitive!). ANyway, I live near Brandywine Springs Park and have some resources so I hope to add to the article in the coming weeks. Thanks!Wkharrisjr (talk) 16:28, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That's cool. What I would have recommended would be to have gone in again and posted a "Whoops" sort of reply to yourself. Or, you could have blanked out the content of the page, which would still leave the initial thought, but buried in archives. By asking for an admin to delete the page (different than blanking), it "hides" from view any historical path on the page, except to administrators who are privileged with the tools to look at deleted pages.
I used to live in Sherwood Park off of Milltown Road, which I suppose you're familiar with the locale? I am working on my own encyclopedic article about Brandywine Springs, but outside of Wikipedia, because I don't get along well with many of those who wield power here. They don't appreciate my jovial tone of superiority. User:Cla68 has assisted me with the construction of the off-Wikipedia page. It's already beating Wikipedia in various search results. I won't ask if you'd like to help contribute to "my" page, because that might be interpreted as exploiting Wikipedia for self-promotional purposes. Good luck with Wikipedia! -- Thekohser 18:03, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I grew up in Windermere and live in Westminster, so Brandywine Springs Park has always been in my backyard.

Ottumwa Iowa / Radar O'Reilly

I undid your revision to Ottumwa Iowa vis a vis fictional character Radar O' Reilly until others hve a chance to discuss the issue and reach a consensus. See the Discussion page on Ottumwa for details and to participate. There are other examples throughout Wikipeda of fictional representations and roles in works of fiction of towns, people, ships, etc. and I fail to see why O' Reilly/Ottumwa would be any different.

Jkalkman's ELs

If you're of the opinion that the links to travelok.com are inappropriate (and I'm inclined to agree with you that they are), you may want to look at his contributions, since he's added alot of them. VernoWhitney (talk) 15:56, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this might well be correct, but can I request that we have a discussion in an appropriate place, and gauge consensus about this, before a mass reversion of the links? It appears to me that Jkalkman's edits have been made in good faith: this is the official state travel website, not linkspam, and it may be at least arguable that they are useful and valid ELs for at least some of the subject pages. Thanks--Arxiloxos (talk) 16:49, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi guys. I'm Jkalkman. I am fairly new on Wikipedia and trying to look at the tourism entities in Oklahoma and add any appropriate content and links. I've devoted a great number of hours to this endeavor over the past month and have learned alot about the ways of Wikipedia. I've even been able to start a few articles and add tons of what I view to be very useful information to lists, categories and articles concerning Oklahoma tourism entities. I thought that I was going a little crazy this morning when links that I thought I had placed on lakes in Oklahoma began disappearing. So I redid the work. This afternoon, I was going to pick up where I left off on the list of lakes in Oklahoma (I've been adding nearby cities, rivers, surface acres and information links to the list someone else posted)when I noticed that some of them were missing again. I tried again and then got to wondering and looked at the history page - my first time for this. I noticed that someone had reverted the additions as being extraneous links, so I read the cited information about what should and should not be linked. I believe that the information I've linked to about Kaw Lake and some of the other lakes that was recently removed was extremely useful to people researching these lakes for the purposes of visiting them, learning about the wildlife and outdoor recreation opportunities, finding contact information, viewing photos, watching videos, etc. I'm not understanding the objection. As Arxiloxo said, the content and link edits that I've been making are definitely in good faith, they are from an official source which I thought I had gone to great pains to make clear and I believe that others will find them useful. I don't understand everything I'm reading here. Is someone requesting a mass deletion of all this work? Is there someone that I need to talk to? Or what do I need to do? Jkalkman (talk) 23:04, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Jkalkman, in fairness to Wkharrisjr, there are some Wikipedia policies that raise questions about the appropriateness of your external links. Have you read WP:ELNO? In any case, I imagine that it would be better not to commandeer Wkharrisjr's user page to have this discussion. Wkharrisjr & VernoWhitney, maybe the best place for this discussion would be at the External links Noticeboard? --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:39, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You can count me out - I just saw the links added and some removed and thought Wkharrisjr should know there were more. I don't have a strong enough opinion either way to do more than that. Cheers. VernoWhitney (talk) 00:04, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Philly radio in Wilmington

I figured it would be useful for people to know that they can get most Philly stations in the Wilmington area. Especially considering 1) the limited number of local stations and 2) the fact that Wilmington gets NPR exclusively from Philly. Blueboy96 21:05, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

True. but just about every other city article on Wikipedia lists only the radio stations in the town itself. Why not also mention stations from downstate, Cecil County and Salem County? Should we also note on the Philadelphia article that they can receive some stations from Delaware and New Jersey? I think it would just get too complicated and redundant. But then again, just my $0.02.Wkharrisjr (talk) 22:53, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

HI

I put Joseph Smith as a resident of Lebanon NH, and forgot to provide a source. According to "Teachings of Presidents of the Church", published by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (2007) "Evidence of the Prophet's extraordinary character emerged early in his life. The Smiths were living in West Lebanon , New Hampshire when a deadly epidemic of typhpoid fever..." (page 2) there's more on the disease and etc but that's the part. Also in the Historical Summary at the beginning of the book (basically a timeline) They have "ca. 1813-Contracts typhoid fever; complications require surgery on his left leg. At this time, the Smith family was living in West Lebanon, New Hampshire, one of several places to which the family moved between 1808 and 1816 in search of opportunities for work." (introduction page xiv). I realize that it says West Lebanon, but the West Lebanon, New Hampshire page is so small (seeing as how it's really just a district within Leb) that I thought it more appropriate to put it in Lebanon's page of notable persons.

Oh, and I'm not a Mormon, they just happen to be what I'm studying right now (I'm a history major in college with an insatiable interest in religions and theology, so I decided to study them), but I am a former resident (and I was born at Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital) so I thought it would be interesting to add his name. I'll add it back in when you give me the go ahead, properly sourced this time of course! Thanks. Vyselink (talk) 01:09, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Baffled by your recent change

Just wondering why you would change the consistent date formatting of over 140 dates that were in in the yr-mo-day format in the Christine O'Donnell, U.S. politician article to the British format? There were only a handful of dates formatted the British way before your change. diff Per the MOS section WP:DATERET If an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the whole article should conform to it, unless there are reasons for changing it based on strong national ties to the topic. It seems your change was completely contrary to that. Perhaps this was a mistake. Either way, will you please reverse your change? --Best regards--KeptSouth (talk) 09:16, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Personnal preference. I find the date format 10 November 2010 much less ambiguous than the 2010-11-10; it could be interpreted as October 11, 2010. I believe the date changes I made were in the course of updating and archiving references. I wasn't aware of the MOS directive, so I'll avoid doing so in the future.Wkharrisjr (talk) 11:32, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, you were unaware of the MOS policy, but that does not explain your edit summary "consistently format dates in references" -- unless you meant you were changing the format to your preference?... I guess that must be what you meant. I take that you are refusing to restore the original date formatting? Would you consider at least changing it to the American type - month day, year? -Regards- KeptSouth (talk) 13:06, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Christine O'Donnell citation archiving

A few friendly hints on archiving: Your archiving is requiring a lot of manual edits by me to make it right. See here, here, and here Basically, it is not constructive. I completely believe you are acting in good faith however, I would like you to cease and desist for a while or to comment out all the new archiving you do. Please see the COD talk page for my discussion on this. Here are a few hints that should prove helpful to you in the future. They are not gratuitous hints, they are based on your work:

  • NYT articles don't need it, they are posted virtually forever, and the WebCite archives come out poorly formatted
  • Yahoo News doesn't allow it, you will get a url from WebCite, but it won't be any good
  • Archiving DOES work very well w/WaPo articles
  • if it's in the Article Collections section of the LAT, it doesn't need archiving.
  • please double check each archiveurl to be sure that the archiving was successful.--Thanks, in advance, for your cooperation.-Best regards- KeptSouth (talk) 20:54, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notable

Hey, what are you defining "Notable" and what not? Simple single facts about what a spouse does for a living? Go to any politician or high profile figure and mentions of their moms, dads, sisters, sons, wives, husband's job is a common occurrence. I checked the other black republican-elect, Tim Scott's page, and his contains no different
Dchip12 (talk) 13:46, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ask yourself- would the average person have a need or desire to know what a public officials spouse does for a living or what scholl they attend unless it somehow could impact that official's performance of their job? There is a difference between fomething being factual and something being notable.Wkharrisjr (talk) 14:58, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notable people references

Hi, I am a patroller of all of the communities of Iowa and I am informing you that I am undoing your removal of the references in the town of Ottumwa, Iowa, section Notable people. I too at one time thought there was no need of references if the person was blue-linked, however I found out consensus had been reached to convince me to change my editing practices. The subject of having a reference has been discussed six times starting in 2007 at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Cities/US Guideline. The most recent discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Cities/US Guideline#References for Notable people has consensus that there be two conditions to being in the Notable people section. 1st the person needs to be blue-linked this establishes that they pass the notability standards of Wikipedia. 2nd there needs to be a external reference that cites the relationship of the Notable person to the city included with the persons blue-link entry in the Notable people section. The first condition has been met (blue-linked), although a inline citation (or a citation in the infobox) should be included in the person's article. The second condition is what I want you to be made aware of, and urge you to include proper references in the future. It will take time but eventually I hope all people in the Notable people section will have references.
The other edits you made to Ottumwa were correct in my opinion and appreciated.

inre Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jacky Wong

I recently was involved in an article about a Portugese notable. Very little was written about him in English, but volumes were written about him in Portgese and Spanish and he has won a notable Porugese award. We cannot ignore our own policies and notability guidelines simply because "some" editors do not read Spanish, or because others do not read Portugese. As in Jackie Wong's case, problems with the sourcing of topics with non-English notability IS what the recognized concern with systemic bias is all about. And while yes, it is best that readers might be able to investigate sources themselves, that is not always possible. Processes are in place to deal with such. Your concern is valid, but the circumstance has come up before and our good faith in the others that can read and translate is encouraged. Policy and guideline explain when and how and why non-English sources may be used. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 22:08, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Verifiability#Non-English sources, Wikipedia:Citing sources#Non-English sources, and Wikipedia:Systemic bias#Biographies

OK, thanks. I'm a relatively new editor and obviously my perspective of what Wikipedia is and how it works needs to be tweaked. My understanding of sourcing was all statements of fact should be sourced with information the reader could confirm. This adds legitimacy to the process. My concern is that one could make outrageous or false claims and source it with material in a language that few of the potential readers could read. While someone fluent in that language could catch the mistake, the odds of that are low unless. Regardless, I'll accept that my understanding of the process is not correct and move on. Thanks again.Wkharrisjr (talk) 13:56, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I see the solution to my concern about foreign language sources: Wikipedia:Citing sources#Non-English sources states "When quoting a source in a different language, please provide both the original-language quotation and an English translation, in the text, in a footnote, or on the talk page as appropriate." The Jacky Wong article doesn't have these translations; with them, I would be a lot more comfortable with the solution.Wkharrisjr (talk) 13:59, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well, as guideline and policy indicate, one solution would be to contact an editor who reads Cantonese or Mandarin and request he or she provide translations. But it is not a fast process, so patience is encouraged. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 03:16, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That is one solution, but shouldn't the original editor include the translation with the original entry? One could ask the editor after the edit, but there is no guarantee that it will every be done. I know this is a policy issue, but it would seem reasonable to me that after a certain period of time after making such a request, the article should be considered unsourced if no translation is forthcoming. Just a thought.Wkharrisjr (talk) 04:28, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well, Wikipedia has dealt with this issue many times, so know that your concern is not new. While requesting a translation is the solution suggested by guideline and policy, considering an article automatically unsourced unless the translation is also present is not... and we do rely here a lot on good faith. Category:Available translators in Wikipedia shares a list of some editors who are active in translations. And you might wish to make such requests from editors listed at Category:Translators zh-en... but remember... Wikipedia recognizes itself as a work in progress, does not demand immediate perfection, and patience is a virtue. Such editors will try to assist as able.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:23, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Howard Stern#Cultural effect

I have addressed aspects of my new section and your revert of it at Talk:Howard Stern/Archives/2024/July#Cultural effect, You had wholly-reverted my new section indicating your opinion "WP:OR" but declining to contact me with specifics. Please note that WP general policy is to help articles reach final form, and to assist in other editors' works and maturity in a kindly fashion. In this I would refer you further to ModelDesiredBehavior and its list of desirable editor attributes:

"Concerned Citizens should do things like:
" • Create pages
" • Edit pages
" • Manage organization of pages
" • Create navigation
" • Delete nonsense
" • Question bad contributions
" • Write documentation
" • Make policy
" • Cheerlead
" • Promote

I am not sure where your wholesale and anonymous revert [ie., you decided to act w/o discussing your concerns with me] is supported here. "Edit Pages"? Reverts are not often classed as general editing; it is "reverting" and justified when dealing with vandalism and spam. And nowhere does WP suggest to "revert new edits you do not appreciate and/or have not taken time to investigate". Are you perhaps a bot or aspiring to act as one? Please consider- If WP needed a bot to remove content such as mine-ie., new material in popular pages, sans references- there would prolly already be one now.
No doubt you will be thinking about one particular- &the single most over-quoted WP standard-"Verifiability". WP standard is *nowhere* defined as "Verified On Demand". WP Policy does not state: "New Content Should Be Immediately Verified and Fully Annotated". Perhaps you feel articles and their sections are best born wholly formed, mature and robust? If that were the case I fear few new articles would ever be begun. This is neither true of older content. WP standards use the specifiec term "verifiable" ie., being possible to verify. "Unverified" content is par for the course here- We see it everywhere there is a "references needed" template- a template which would appear on most pages if they were aggressively groomed. Yet information from and about such a notorious and widely accessible subject, and a related "secondary literature" is obviously available. All the points I made are clearly verifiable- thus they conform to that WP standard. Allegations of WP:OR mean little when dealing with facts concerning such a notable topic. You are welcome apply yourself to proving otherwise- or that my points are false. However do keep in mind that as absence alone is no evidence; denial alone is no proof. Or you might make more constructive edits in line with my purpose should you perceive that. Have you never yet attempted to tackle a subject that is outside your academic bailiwick? A simple outline provides the basis for a labor of learning. From such is writing born. In my reactions I have noted that the article appears to suffer from what i identify as a defensive conservatism familiar to Stern among his listeners. Or perhaps you yourself feel un-empowered to attempt what i have- a more spontaneous writing in the service of producing a natural readability in early drafts. "Earlier forms" of writing are par for this course; they are quite inevitable.
In general, I usually feel mass reversions of this type (made w/o contacting an affected editor) appear intentionally &/or crassly rude, done in the service of some sort of idealism or other. In this case though I can perhaps appreciate the Stern topic might attract some vandalism and warrants some vigilance. But until you can demonstrate some more conclusive non-verifiability, I do ask that you return my work- and then leave it in place. How else can it be developed? I do intend to continue to work on the new section where I left off, with my content reinstated, and I do ask that you facilitate this by replacing my work, or give valid reasons why you should not. WP needs editors who can cultivate relationships with other editors and their work- not 'bots". In the future should you have any objections to others' attempts at writing, you now have the descriptors of a considerate editor to guide your better efforts.
As mentioned, I gave further reasoning at the talk page link above. Thank you and good editing. May your wishes be fulfilling. Hilarleo Hey,L.E.O. 07:06, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Amigo (Hello, Friend)

Not because you like to destroy everything that I add to the page of Manzarek-Krieger, can you tell me that you do that? And associados acts are not members of the band, is rather that touched bands or bands belong to the band members — Preceding unsigned comment added by Antonio Aw (talk • contribs) 23:40, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, have you looked at the discussion about the World Tour on the Talk page of the article. I asked a third party to review our differences and he stated that a paragraph about the tour was sufficient, a detailed list could be considered a advertising which is against Wikipedia policy. If you still do not agree, we can take our dispute to the next level of arbitration.
With regard to associated acts, from what I understand Mark Farner doesn't fit the definition of Associated Acts. From Template:Infobox musical artist, Associated acts are:

::..professional relationships with other musicians or bands that are significant and notable to this artist's career.

This field can include, for example, any of the following:
  • For individuals: groups of which he or she has been a member
  • Other acts with which this act has collaborated on multiple occasions, or on an album, or toured with as a single collaboration act playing together
  • Groups which have spun off from this group
  • A group from which this group has spun off
The following uses of this field should be avoided:
  • Association of groups with members' solo careers
  • Groups with only one member in common
  • Association of producers, managers, etc. (who are themselves acts) with other acts (unless the act essentially belongs to the producer, as in the case of a studio orchestra formed by and working exclusively with a producer)
  • One-time collaboration for a single, or on a single song
  • Groups that are merely similar

I'm not sure about that- I've always viewed published references as preferable as they are more likely to have been reviewed and fact-checked.

National Register of Historic Places listings in New Castle County, Delaware

I think I'll put back the photo of the non-extant Killgore properties that you removed, as well as the link to the non-existant articles. I work regularly with WP:NRHP and have taken half or more of the photos of NRHP sites in Wilmington and New Castle County. Odd as it seems, the common practice at WP:NRHP is to put in photos of the sites of demolished buildings. The reason is simply so that folks know what's there, and we can demonstrate to the NRHP that they need to update their lists. I can certainly get some fellow project members to explain this better, if you want more clarification. The only thing unusual here is that I managed to get two non-extant sites in the same photo!

BTW, I searched high and low (but not high enough) for the Newport railroad station. I later figured out where it is (was) supposed to be. Do you know whether it is still there? Is there any public access that you know of? Smallbones (talk) 20:59, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I learned something new today. However, shouldn't the picture of the old Killgore Hall building be the empty lot across the street from Minquas Fire Company where Wroten's Hardware once stood as I believe this was the Killgore buildings?
I don't know much about the old Newport Railroad station. I think I remember seeing a glimpse of it years ago, but I assume it was turn down. From what I understand, the stations in Stanton and Kiamensi were almost identical structures. Alas, these were torn down years ago. My father grew up on James Street just a block away fromthe station; I'll have to check the old family photos to see if tehre might be a picture of the station. Wkharrisjr (talk) 13:00, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That would be great if you could find a photo of the train station!
Photographing things that aren't there, aka the sites of "non-extant buildings" does have it's difficulties. Maybe you can tell me if my logic has failed here. See File:Minquas FD Newport DE.jpg. I'm facing south, with James Street just outside of the frame to the left. The building just behind me is 113 N. James and I'm just a few yards south of it with about 20 yards to the corner. Killgore Hall is supposed to be 101 N. James - which I figure must be the corner about where the "available" sign is. The Killgore House was 107 N. James which must be between me and the sign. This seems to jibe with the NRHP nomination forms. The only question mark is the coords given (which are exactly the same for both sites!). They'd be just off to the right of the photo. But there are quite often NRHP coords that are say 30-40 yards off, so it's probably at the corner. This type of thing sometimes borders OR, so do please let me know where I went wrong.
Any help appreciated. Smallbones (talk) 23:54, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The empty lot you noted was the former location of Wroten's Hardware, which I am led to believe was the final incarnation of both buildings. I recall that Wroten's was a ramshackle affair; I assume a later addition connected the two buildings. So, yes, I think the NRHP coordinates are not correct. When as the building nominated for NRHP? It was probably before GPS systems were available and were a "guesstimate" from a larger map.
The only thing that doesn't jibe with my memory is the location of the Killgore House. I don't remember theri being a house north of Wroten's on James Street but I think I remember one bing west of it on Justis Street. Again it could just be my memory playing tricks on me.
I'll have to dig around and see if we might also have an old picture of Wroten's in the family pictures.
One final thought. If you don't mind, I'll try to get a better piture for the Newport Info box. I assume you are the one who inserted the Minquas Fire Hall picture. Perhaps I get take a picture of the Town Building or the water tower.Wkharrisjr (talk) 15:23, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Doing a little research, I note that the NRHP report was filed in 1993, before the GPS era, so that could explain the positioning error. And yes, the Killgore House was north of Killgore Hall, so my memory is slipping. One question though, what are Wikipedia policies regarding the use of photos in the NRHP reports? There are nice pictures of both buildings in the reports.Wkharrisjr (talk) 15:59, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please do get a better pic for the infobox. I tried long and hard to try to get us to use the NRHP photos, but the feeling is that they are NOT produced by the NRHP but by private individuals who then submit them to the NRHP. I even tried to get the pre-1976 (or some such year) in because they were published without a copyright when that was required. I still think I'm right (they are public records similar to court cases), but nobody agrees with me. Some exceptions, some - not many photo are taken directly by NRHP people or by HABS (federal employees), sometimes there are pre-1923 photos included, etc. Thanks for the help.

Yossef Ben-Jochannan

Hi, I don't edit wikipedia usually and as such, do not know the exact rules. However, I find it highly problematic that every dubious claim this individual made in an interview is then presented as fact. I understand that it was published, but it was simply an interview on a website.

If the rules dictate that the article should stay as is, then perhaps wikipedia needs to do something. The rules being this way would mean that any individual who makes dubious claims with no support can have them presented as fact on wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.241.93.245 (talk) 18:12, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

New Jersey elected official templates

These templates that have been removed from the article for Millville, New Jersey are used as a standard for all 566 municipalities. Consensus is that information about the elected officials who represent a municipality is always relevant to the corresponding Wikipedia article. Alansohn (talk) 18:49, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Could you point me to this discussion as this is not standard practice in other states.Wkharrisjr (talk) 19:04, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
See WT:NJ and take a look at the other 565 articles on the list of municipalities in New Jersey. Regarding references and the replacement of valid references with citation templates, Wikipedia:Citing sources#Citation templates and tools states that "The use of citation templates is neither encouraged nor discouraged: an article should not be switched between templated and non-templated citations without good reason and consensus...", referring to earlier in the document where it states "when adding citations, to try to follow the system and style already in use in the article." Using templates does not make the article "better", and if templates are not used throughout the article are only inconsistent and confusing. If a source is a bare inline link it might be worthwhile, but using one's time to reformat an existing reference to use a template is an unnecessary waste of time. Alansohn (talk) 19:19, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
In thinking about my actions and re-reading my comments I realize that I have been quite WP:BITEy. I am not enamored with citation templates, while others (yourself included) prefer their use. As I see it, reformatting a source to use a template might be "better" than using a non-templated reference, but adding a source where none existed before is a gigantic improvement to an article. The benefits of adding sources where none existed (as I see it) are simply so much greater than the benefit of using templates to reformat existing references, and Wikipedia:Citing sources#Citation templates and tools makes it clear that the benefit of changing standards might well be non-existent, that I just won't do it. You clearly have an interest in and knowledge about these subjects and I hope that you will continue to edit and genuinely improve these articles by finding and adding new sources to back up unsourced material. Please accept my apologies if any offense was taken by my words or actions. Alansohn (talk) 18:34, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No offense really taken. I am a casual editor and you are obviously much more passionate about the topic and so I defer to your opinions. You are right that our foucs should be on improving the citations themselves rather than the format of existing citations. Honestly, I never knew there was backlash against the citation templates until now; I just assumed that they existed to provide a cleaner and more consistent appearance to the citations. (My pet peeve is bare urls as citations). If it wasn't for your comments I would still not have know of the issues and will be more sensitive in the future.Wkharrisjr (talk) 03:20, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not saying Lyon's is necessarily inaccurate, but on general principle something so close to the subject's control can't be depended on to be neutral, so more formal writings would be way better. Once you broaden the sourcing to serious pieces of journalism/academic work, this will be a sure-in. MatthewVanitas (talk) 00:24, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

The source is still there, but it mentions a specific number, so I just added that in. Because right now we have contradictory numbers (link says 55% of the nation is Muslim whereas the graph says it's 38%). The source is reliable, and it quotes the President of Bashkortostan saying the nation is 55%. 68.150.245.177 (talk) 05:25, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I quickly scanned the article and the number 55% did not jump out at me. I'll go back and re-read it more carefully. Thanks! Wkharrisjr (talk) 13:37, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Phillies Owners

Yes, Phillies have a lot of owners, but every baseball team has a lot of owners. There's usually a dedicated page for a team listing all the owners and companies. The sidebar, to me anyway, is to offer quick highlights, and for owners specifically, to indicate who the controlling or majority owner(s) is. Otherwise the sidebar gets too bogged down. I also don't think you're supposed to source sidebar information, as sources can be put in the main article that the sidebar is summarizing. I could be wrong, and if you don't agree, undo what I undid and I won't fight you anymore. Kaiserthegreat (talk) 23:58, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

March 2013

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring, as you did at Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  —Darkwind (talk) 13:16, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Wkharrisjr (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I am not sure why I am blocked. I have been attempting dialog with the party I reported, even offering suggestions, but the other party continued to revert my changes without dialog. Please remove my block.

Decline reason:

While these four reverts ([4], [5], [6], [7]) indeed took place over a period greater than 24 hours, meaning they're not subject to the three-revert rule, they still fall within an admin's discretion to block for edit warring. Once you've made a report to ANEW, it's a good idea not to make any further reverts until the report is resolved. — Daniel Case (talk) 15:21, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.


I guess I'm confused as to why I was blocked as I thought I had taken good faith efforts to resolve the issue but the other party would not respond to my efforts. For further references, what should have done differently so as not too have been blocked. Wkharrisjr (talk) 02:28, 3 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Refimprove tag on Pierre Brossolette's article

Hi I' ve noticed your tag addition on this article and I would ask you to be more specific on what pasages did struck you as poorly referenced. The article is dense and bottom references are plenty, so adding inline references by page may substantially decrease readabiity. The best would be to have your valuable feedback, especially from a Philly far away from French politics intricacies and from European WWII details. Bizcayen (talk) 20:30, 27 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, your refimprove tagging may have brought a valuable help from a top wiki editor/reviewer User talk:Dthomsen8 that cleaned ‎ up some stuff but no real remarks about referencing. On the contrary, I ve asked on his talk page for some feedback and he actually stated the inline referencing seemed pretty good. I would thus reiterate my request for some specific feedback for improvement, otherwise it seems like it should be removed as not bringing any constructive upside.

I beg to differ. CatholicHierarchy.com lists him as the current archbishop of Buenos Aires. Roman Catholic canon law states that one assumes a see when appointed by the Pope.

Thanks for fixing my grammar in the article of George John Dasch. MY grammar is a big awful btw. I was just wondering if you can check for grammar error for an article I created. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operations_Ginny_I_and_II XXzoonamiXX (talk) 22:36, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I'd be glad to look over the article. Thanks for asking! Wkharrisjr (talk) 12:08, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, can you fix this? It doesn't feel what no matter how I see it. The article has an image description that say this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Greif#Aftermath

"Pernass, Billing, and Schmidt were lined up for execution by firing squad after being convicted by a military court for wearing U.S. uniforms caught behind U.S. lines during the Battle of the Bulge."

See the last sentence? "after being convicted by a military court for wearing U.S. uniforms caught behind U.S. lines during the Battle of the Bulge."

It didn't feel it has the right kick to it. iI is not grammatically correct. BTW, don't change to just "wearing uniforms during the Battle of the Bulge" because it implicates that enemy soldiers caught behind their own lines and get shot for just uniforms of a belligerent when in fact if you're caught behind lines of a belligerent in their uniforms, you get shot. Try and make it a little bit more sense for me. Thanks.XXzoonamiXX (talk) 21:04, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Question about access date

Absolutely, 99% of the time I would include an accessdate - however for offline sources if you include an accessdate without a url parameter then you get an error message at the bottom of the page asking for a url. The only way to get rid of it is to remove the access date or add a url. Miyagawa (talk) 20:05, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

D'oh! I knew that! I guess I didn't notice that the cited reference didn't have a valid url. Thanks for clarifying that for me!

Recent Edit For Shamokin, PA

I'm not sure why you changed it but I can send you pictures to show that it hasn't been dismantled and has been left for mother earth to take care of. I assure you it wasn't "dismantled". The article is not accurate. Portions are now gone, but dismantled implies that it's not there. It surely is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shamtown (talk • contribs) 14:19, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The edit was to remove editorializing- "and was left to rot, causing a hazard to the citizenry." could be be interpreted as being an opinion, especially the "crating a hazard to the citizenry". You are right, though, I was too aggressive and should have left a re-worded version of the "and was left to rot". See if you think the newest revision is better. Thanks! Wkharrisjr (talk) 14:45, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Second time

Hi Wkharrisjr, I saw yesterday you reported 74.203.156.189 at AIV for vandalism, and I declined as there was only one instance of vandalism in the past day. I see you reported it again this morning, and it got blocked... is it normal to do that, re-report an IP that was declined? I'm a new admin and I'm still getting used to the standards of what is sanctionable and what isn't, so my question is genuine... I'd like to be able to handle AIV reports correctly the first time. Thanks... Zad68 12:48, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't see that it got declined. I guess I am at times a little too aggressive with reporting vandalism, especially when it it obviously kids fooling around on a school account.Wkharrisjr (talk) 13:31, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yup, OK... But the admin who did end up blocking is very experienced at AIV, so I have a question in to them about how to handle those kinds of vandalism reports. Thanks for patrolling... Zad68 13:36, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DGG ( talk ) 20:03, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
the problem before with the reference display was purely typographical--you had left off the closing > in a </ref> tag, and had not completed the final parts of a cite template or closed it with the }}--probably as part of an accidental deletion during an edit. These are very common errors but it is not easy to devise a way to fix them automatically with ambiguity. We have however at least done something: there should have been a bold red warning displayed about this when you previewed or saved the edit. WP syntax, like html & similar to other other computer programming is unforgiving. People are working on a visual editor that will avoid most of the difficulties, but it still hasn't been possible to write a fully satisfactory one--our syntax is so peculiar. When something doesn't work right,ask about on some person's talk page or on Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)-- I know you left a note on the AfC, but that does not necessarily get noticed.

Texas Southern NCAA Sanctions

The NCAA sanctions are already on the TSU football page since its their infraction. I've already had a dispute with someone about double adding the sanctions and the Wiki community/administrators agreed with me and blocked that person who continued to add it just FYI.Broadmoor (talk) 00:28, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Let's get the facts right... Broadmoor was the person blocked for edit-warring on a different issue regarding the same article, not the other user ElKevbo; as for the Sanctions issue, the admins didn't agree with either party. Neither user was blocked for the sanctions issue. I was just getting ready to comment on here when I saw this message. Corky | Chat? 00:45, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Of course you didn't get the facts straight Corkythehornetfan. I wasn't "blocked" as you put it for my dispute about the NCAA Sanctions. And if the admins didn't agree with any party they would've not locked the account to prevent ElKevbo from making an add he kept making and actually the admins and other editors left comments in my favor. And why are you so obsessed with the TSU page anyway. There's a million things to edit and monitor.Broadmoor (talk) 01:02, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This is the kind of shit you have to put up with if you interact with Broadmoor, Corky. I'm very frustrated that he or she hasn't already been blocked as he or she not only insists on edit warring but also deliberately misunderstanding and twisting facts to suit his or her own purposes. In short, he or she isn't here to collegially build an encyclopedia but only to push his or her own views. Good luck trying to work with him or her! ElKevbo (talk) 02:12, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
ElKevbo you're a biased, irresponsible, and petty editor and I have no respect for you. For example, I gave you several links of other universities with more serious and worse NCAA sanctions but did you go and add that to their wiki pages? No you didn't, so see ya ... nothing else to say to you. You just mad I questioned and exposed you as a seriously problematic and biased editor. No respectable editor will side with you.Broadmoor (talk) 23:20, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Would you guys mind taking your dispute off of my Talk page? Thanks.Wkharrisjr (talk) 13:36, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Texas Southern Rivalries

Oh my goodness. What is your proof or validation that only nationally recognized rivalries are noted? Because if you look at most university and high school wiki pages they note all their main rivalries ... most of which are not nationally recognized. So a precedent has been established and you can't change that. The rivalries listed for TSU are important to the identity of the university and historic.Broadmoor (talk) 02:58, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm let's see Louisiana State University, Texas State University, Southern Methodist University, Villanova University, University of Louisiana at Monroe, Sam Houston State University, Stephen F. Austin State University, New Mexico State University, Georgia Tech University, University of Texas at San Antonio all have mention of rivalries on their main page and it's been that way since the inception of Wikipedia ... need I go on. I easily tripled your list in a couple of minutes only. Do I need to do more, so you're wrong ... you can not change something that has been established as an acceptable practice worldwide! And how is it trivial when it's relating to the topic of athletics?!Broadmoor (talk) 13:43, 30 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~a

Looking over your cited references, I see most of the rivalries have a traditional trophy or a designated name, all of which either have Wikipedia articles or are mentioned in multiple media sources- this ties back to my original statement that the rivalries should meet WP:NOTE standards ( demonstrated by seperate Wikipedia articles or multiple, independent media coverage). If it's is not notable, it is trivial. if you can dig up multiple independent citations with special rivalry trophies or special game names, I would agree that these TSU rivalries are not trivial.Wkharrisjr (talk) 00:27, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

hi

I notice you were the last editor active vis a vis the Notable People list for Shenandoah, Pennsylvania. I was wondering, if you have a moment, you might take a look at my request here? Thanks, kindly, in advance. LavaBaron (talk) 09:17, 1 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Worldwide Communion of Catholic Apostolic Churches, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Reconciliation and Presbytery. 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.
