Change in Evidence of evolution

Please refrain from making these kinds of changes in a scientific topic. A good place for such non-sense would be [1] or [2]. Take your pick.--Roland Deschain 00:46, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize. I assumed you were pushing creationist view points. However, the paragraph was badly written. Molecular clocks are accurate within millions of years. However, to remove any confusion I've changed the time scale used. I will look up the actual number for N years.--Roland Deschain 00:53, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. My only intention was the thousand.nillion confusion, and since it is an example zi did not care about whihc of the time scales to use. Anyway, I appreciate your coming back to apologize.IdeasLover 11:27, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ludic Fallacy

The question is, how notable is that topic. If it is mentioned only in the book, then I fear it is notnotable enough. Someone else will look at the article in some time, it would be best if you have some nontrivial references (scientific journals, major newspapers, etc) to back up the notability claims -- Chris 73 | Talk 21:25, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I will have more common references within a few days. IdeasLover 21:44, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Helena Valero

A tag has been placed on Helena Valero, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Mhking 20:01, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have you seen my notes on the talk page?

this is far from just a biography. I would argue you to read carefully what I wrote now in the article itself. YechezkelZilber 20:28, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Yechezkel, I've declined to speedy delete it so the article will stay for now. But could you please work on it? It needs work. - Richard Cavell 22:11, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks.

I would be happy, if you could specify whihc work you think is needed. Thanks in advance YechezkelZilber 23:38, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Note that I made some serious edition there. I did not understood what you wrote "take it to AfD if you want it gone"? YechezkelZilber 00:16, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Taleb's picture 001.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Taleb's picture 001.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 20:01, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Platonicity

Hi! Please see Platonicity - I proposed the article for deletion. Perhaps you have some important input concerning this? Ulner (talk) 20:17, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

Hi! I don't understand your edit comment to your recent edit: [3] - " I see no reason to delete the headline from the reference". I did not mean to delete anything (I don't think I did?), just include more details about the link [[4]]. Best regards Ulner (talk) 23:26, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In fact - I added a headline to the reference. Perhaps you missinterpreted the diff between my edits? I have recently tried to improve all references in the Taleb article with more info about the links. Best regards Ulner (talk) 16:07, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are right. I was mistaenly reading the diff the wrong direction Yechezkel Zilber (talk) 17:28, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No problem - Now I have put the headline back into the article. Now almost all references have details about the links. Best regards Ulner (talk) 22:23, 11 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Nassim Taleb Lecturing.JPG 2.jpeg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Nassim Taleb Lecturing.JPG 2.jpeg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 04:59, 27 November 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 04:59, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Nassim Taleb Lecturing.JPG 2.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Nassim Taleb Lecturing.JPG 2.jpeg, which you've sourced to Attilio Bottura. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MilborneOne (talk) 16:47, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

permission mail sent. let me know what's up Yechezkel Zilber (talk) 18:45, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

sent email with permission to the above email. Heard nothing back yet. Htanks in advance Yechezkel Zilber (talk) 22:20, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You need to send the permission email to wikipedia, the instruction are at Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission but basically you need an email from the copyright holder to be sent to permissions-enwikimedia.org. MilborneOne (talk) 22:38, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Taleb article

Hi Yechezkel Zilber, I want to draw your attention to something regarding the Taleb article.

I was about to add a quote from one of Taleb's books on the page of the same writer. I felt something about the style of NewEconomist sounded familiar, so I decided to investigate.

The user NewEconomist has made edits on a number of historical figures. Apart from Nassim Taleb these are Friedrich Von Hayek, Aristotle, Cato the Elder, Napoleon I of France, Albert Cohen, David Hume, Frederick Bastiat, and Ludwig Von Mises.

Six of these eight figures are mentioned in the Taleb books I have read, namely 'Fooled by Randomness' and 'The Black Swan'.

This may be coincidence as these are mostly major figures but also note the following:

On 17 April 09, an anonymous user (72.255.42.57) made an edit titled 'Taleb replies'. This anonymous edit occurred directly after NewEconomist made a couple of posts.

You can probably guess what I am getting at. I think there is a strong possibility that 'NewEconomist' is in fact the writer in question.

I am not sure what the Wikipedia etiquette is on this, but I suspect that it is somehow inappropriate for a person to make edits on their own biographical article.

Caution is required here, as I may be wrong (the user could be an obsessive Taleb fan) but at the very least it is probably best to keep an eye on future changes made by NewEconomist.

Entertainment economics

I noted your recent edits to Nassim Nicholas Taleb. My mission is to enter into the historical record individuals who have made significant contributions to the economic study of creative industries. Most of them are still living, but are at retirement age. They unfortunately do not have a fair representation on the Internet, although their research is well documented in academic literature (which are not freely accessible via the Internet). Please take a look at my first bio, Arthur De Vany. De Vany is a close associate of Taleb, and many of his studies of probability and uncertainty are related. Thanks. Allenwlee (talk) 18:14, 19 May 2010 (UTC)allen[reply]

External Links

Hi, I'm replying to your message regarding some reverts I made of your adding some external links to a blog reviewing Taleb's book. The rules are pretty clear, blogs aren't allowed in external links unless they come from a recognized authority. The definition of a recognized authority is kinda vague, but a good rule of thumb if that individual isn't associated with a newspaper or academic institution, they're probably not a recognized authority. Please read the policy on what external links are generally not allowed, particularly number 11, which is the one relevant for including blogs in external links.

Speedy deletion nomination of Willpower: rediscovering the greatest human strength

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Willpower: rediscovering the greatest human strength, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance 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. Calabe1992 (talk) 15:50, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jazi, by happy coincidence, I'm still watching your talk page from a conversation we had way back when. This block is no longer necessary and should be dropped post-haste and I'll note so for the patrolling admin.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ludic fallacy until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. 0x0077BE [^talk/_contrib] 22:23, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I utterly disagree

That incomplete citations, citations without page numbers, URL-only citations, etc.—that these are unimportant issues. Articles whose citations become broken contain untraceable information. Citations that are URL-only are very prone to this. Citations lacking page numbers are similarly untraceable/unverifiable, in contravention to WP:VERIFY. It is nonsense to argue that because a problem is widespread, it is minor—the very opposite is true. Look at the article self-assessments, at the number of articles that are very poor in quality—one contributor to this (one expectation of a GA label) is that the citation issues be solved. Yes, it is widespread. No, it is not unimportant. It is critical to articles becoming good, and truly encyclopedic. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 05:29, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is better for citations to be complete. Period.

this is however not ground to remove the citations nor the content based upon them. That's all Jazi Zilber (talk) 14:16, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:46, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Read Wikipedia policies before restoring content against them.

WP:PROVEIT is very clear " burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material." That is empahsised in the original. You CAN NOT restore content without demonstrating verifiability.

Also "Not vandalise wholesale depetion" Makes absolutely no sense, I suspect your handle on the english languege is less than fluent, you should probably edit the wikipedia for your native language. 2601:281:8202:522C:34D1:AFB2:E2D6:1992 (talk) 17:47, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The definition of "no sense" is a matter of opinion. And I dismiss your attitude wholesale.

However, I am not at the moment in the mood to start a huge useless war about this. have fun Jazi Zilber (talk) 19:08, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reference errors on 19 December

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

• On the Common Reporting Standard page, your edit caused an unnamed parameter error (help). (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:25, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Wansnik"

Not sure if this is a spellcheck quirk on your machine, or something, but just a heads up that you're repeatedly mis-spelling Brian Wansink's name as "Wansnik" in your edits to his article. --McGeddon (talk) 13:13, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit war warning

You need to actually describe the POV problem, based on what MEDRS/RS sources say, and the policies and guidelines, on the article talk page.

Your recent editing history at Neuroticism shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Google memo, poll and 3RR

Re [6]. First, you got it backwards. The burden of consensus is on those who wish to include contentious material. So actually, it's YOU who should go to talk and try to get consensus. Second, this is a worthless unscientific poll and it simply doesn't belong in the article. Third, as a simple notification, I believe you're up to three reverts now.Volunteer Marek (talk) 23:28, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What? Just yesterday you said:

"that's not how it works. True, existence of RS is not sufficient, just necessary. But once the RS has been provided, the burden flips to the person who wishes to exclude it. And WP:IJUSTDONTLIKEIT doesn't cut. So the burden of consensus is now on you and those wishing to exclude. Why exactly? You haven't provided a coherent rationale. Volunteer Marek (talk) "00:18, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

It looks like YechezkelZilber provided an RS, Business Insider, so "the burden flips to the person who wishes to exclude it" doesn't it? Your edit-summary said it was a non-scientific poll, do we have a policy that forbids non-scientific polls? Can you link to it please. James J. Lambden (talk) 00:08, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Blind app

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Blind app, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, 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 from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Nomination of Blind (app) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Blind (app) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Blind (app) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Dysklyver 10:12, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ultimate frisbee gender neutrality

Ultimate is a sport that both men and women play and one that women just as men are actively encouraged to participate in. Sportsperson is a recognized gender neutral term by (amongst others) the OED. Sportspersonship is therefore an improvement on the article as it is less sexist than sportsmanship. There is no grammatical issue with it. Please revert the change you made to my improvement for gender neutrality.

Conflict of interest in WIkipedia

Hi YechezkelZilber. I work on conflict of interest issues here in Wikipedia, along with my regular editing, which is mostly about health and medicine. Your recent edits at Brian Wansink are somewhat promotional. The page has a history of conflicted and promotional editing. I'm giving you notice of our Conflict of Interest guideline and Terms of Use, and will have some comments and requests for you below.

Hello, YechezkelZilber. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.

Comments and requests

Wikipedia is a widely-used reference work and managing conflict of interest is essential for ensuring the integrity of Wikipedia and retaining the public's trust in it. Unmanaged conflicts of interest can also lead to people behaving in ways that violate our behavioral policies and cause disruption in the normal editing process. Managing conflict of interest well, also protects conflicted editors themselves - please see WP:Wikipedia is in the real world, and Conflict-of-interest editing on Wikipedia for some guidance and stories about people who have brought bad press upon themselves through unmanaged conflict of interest editing.

As in academia, COI is managed here in two steps - disclosure and a form of peer review. Please note that there is no bar to being part of the Wikipedia community if you want to be involved in articles where you have a conflict of interest; there are just some things we ask you to do (and if you are paid, some things you need to do).

Disclosure is the most important, and first, step. While I am not asking you to disclose your identity (anonymity is strictly protecting by our WP:OUTING policy) would you please disclose if you have some connection with Wansink or his Cornell directly or through a third party (e.g. a PR agency or the like)? You can answer how ever you wish (giving personally identifying information or not), but if there is a connection, please disclose it. After you respond (and you can just reply below), if it is relevant I can walk you through how the "peer review" part happens and then, if you like, I can provide you with some more general orientation as to how this place works. Please reply here, just below, to keep the discussion in one place. Thanks! Jytdog (talk) 14:45, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jytdog: Hey.

First, I definitely understand your concern. I have seen your other comments etc. and I am taking no issue with you being suspicious.

Second, I have absolutely nothing to do with Wansink (you can see me misspelling his name in some of my earlier edits here, which might some forensic lol)

I have been following this whole sad affair for a long while. and I am well familiar with it. But not from a position of total admirer of Wansink, but rather as a skeptic, that has as much skepticism towards skeptics as rowards original authors.

If you wish to know who I am, I have no qualms to show you outside wikipedia. not sure how...

Specifically:

1) Wansink page of responses is naturally related here. there are various parts of his response (general page overview + 2 pdf with in depth regarding the original 4 papers questioned.

2) I have not mentioned now that the "150 errors" is an inflated number (in good faith by the critics, but it happened that a typo in a headline number made the whole table into 20 errors etc. go read the pdf). I neglected it because its a detail too much in the current version of the paper.

3) As we know now. And I am stressing now. There has not been a clear cut case of data hacking. Most cases show in competence and carelessness. Which is materially different.

4) The p-hacking claim is mostly based on the buzzfeed article which is based on mining 8 years of emails and interpreting them the way the journalists thought. Some in the skeptic community took issue with the way the buzzfeed article went. Anyway, Buzzfeed is not a reliable source for interpreting academic data or analysing the meaning of emails on subtle issues.

5) Being a living person, the onus of proof is on whoever posts the defaming text rather than the opposite.

In sum:

I am not that much of a fan of this body of work. But this wiki article ought to be as factual and neutral as possible. That is what I strived to do. Jazi Zilber (talk) 14:56, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(I fixed your indenting... please do thread per WP:THREAD)

Thanks for your note, and for explaining that you have no connection with Wansink or his lab. I hear what you are saying , about your view that the reaction went too far, hence your pushing back the other way. Thanks for understanding that this ~looks like~ the original set of people who filled the pages with promotional garbage. (If you didn't see it, I linked to the COIN posting at the talk page, in response to a (Cornell) student's post there.)

We can discuss specific edits at the talk page. Thanks again for your gracious response. Jytdog (talk) 16:31, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. Jytdog (talk) 14:33, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the bolded bit. If you continue adding copylink violations and especially if you edit war to keep them, you will be swiftly blocked. We take that very seriously. The APA actively watches WP for violations for example, and one of the copylink violations was to an APA journal. Do not take this lightly. Jytdog (talk) 14:41, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

You are edit warring to restore copyright violations.

Your recent editing history at Sex differences in psychology shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war.

Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert.

User:Jytdog I have changed the link to give non copyright links. I can fix the rest of the links as needed. I suppose your issue is the researchgate links right? I can give legitimate journal pages.

Will this suffice? Jazi Zilber (talk) 14:36, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No. All three of the pdfs to which you linked violated WP:COPYLINK. Do not violate this policy. Jytdog (talk) 14:38, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

All fixed now to proper legal links.

Also, please refrain from invoking "Edit warring" on good faith editing aimed at fixing exactly what you raised. This is not fair. Jazi Zilber (talk) 14:44, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Do be so casual about copyright.

You are also edit warring to remove the content about the other stuff. Do that again and you are liable to be blocked. WP's policies are fair and exist for good reason. Bring the idea of removing that to talk. You are editing aggressively and badly. Knock it off. Jytdog (talk) 14:47, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jytdog TWO issues. the links were edited for good reason and you got no point to it.

You can add the ommited section. But LEAVE the other edits intact. Jazi Zilber (talk) 14:50, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The removed section was removed by ANOTHER editor already. I fixed the issues for the first part. But the other half was never fixed for third party issues.

Do we have agreement to restore my edit, but leaving the second paragraph inside as you prefer? Thanks Jazi Zilber (talk) 14:50, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You edit warred to restore COPYLINK violations, and you edit warred to remove content. You will stop behaving that way, or you will end up blocked. You will choose your own path. I will not reply here further. Jytdog (talk) 14:53, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You have recently shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Funbridge moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Funbridge, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

You cannot make an assumption that Sharp would have won the race in Rio had the rule change not taken place.

GS

Please read this notice carefully.

You are receiving this notice because you recently edited one or more pages relating to blockchain or cryptocurrencies topics. You have not done anything wrong. We just want to alert you that "general" sanctions are authorized for certain types of edits to those pages.

A community decision has authorized the use of general sanctions for pages related to blockchain and cryptocurrencies. The details of these sanctions are described here. All pages that are broadly related to these topics are subject to a one revert per twenty-four hours restriction, as described here.

General sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after the editor has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! Lapablo (talk) 21:52, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. David Gerard (talk) 14:29, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

talk, those rules are well known. I have deleted the various policy infections that has the meaning of doxxing, while overtly pretending just using one letter, or under the guise of endless excuses. While I am not accusing those doing it of intentionally trying to circumvent the earlier admin decisions, those talk discussions are in effect against stated policy and earlier admin decisions (including earlier history deletions by king of hearts user).

I will accept to keep the discussion without actively doxxing before a decision has been taken Jazi Zilber (talk) 15:17, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments. Such edits are disruptive, and may appear to other editors to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Thank you. David Gerard (talk) 15:29, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

David, with all due respect, please stop the domineering style of behavior. I have explained to you very clearly the reasoning. Copy-pasting Wikipedia rules while plainly ignoring the reasoning used isn't respectful or polite... Jazi Zilber (talk) 15:37, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And yet, you keep doing it. Please stop. Has it never occurred to you to wonder how you rack up quite so many talk page warnings? - David Gerard (talk) 15:38, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is. this block is coming up again and again on my home internet for years. Nobody else is using this IP AFAIK. and even myself aren't editing Wikipedia as much. truly bizarre. Jazi Zilber (talk) 18:32, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

It's globally blocked, so we can't touch it from here. Since you have a registered account, you are eligible for IP block exemption. Follow the instructions at WP:IPEC if you wish to pursue that option. — Daniel Case (talk) 17:42, 1 August 2021 (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.

Ross Ulbricht

Hi, I came across your edit on Ross Ulbricht: [8]. The source you posted doesn't mention anything about the chats time zone (or maybe I wasn't about to find the information). Could you maybe provide a better source for your statement or point out where it is mentioned? --Broc (talk) 07:48, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Forum

Please stop posting links with no explanations as to what you want to use them for, as this look a bit like using a talk page as a wp:forum. Slatersteven (talk) 15:37, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried to bring up various sources to give a balanced picture about who RH is and how he is viewed.

it's easy to use a singular HuffPost piece about someone's old writing and make his Wikipedia entry look like this is the main piece of info about him Jazi Zilber (talk) 16:01, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have posted random links with no suggestion as to what you want to use them to say (despite being asked). Thus you are using the talk page to discuss the topic, not to suggest edits, thus it is getting to the stage of a wp:forum violation. Slatersteven (talk) 16:07, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"I've been writing Wikipedia in two languages for 18 years. and I'm familiar with situations where I know what's going on, but how do you show it?" What do you mean by, what do you think is going on? Slatersteven (talk) 16:01, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Falsifying quotes

It is wholly unacceptable to modify quotes so that they are different from the source. If deliberate, It is no better than vandalism. Hemiauchenia (talk) 03:56, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hemiauchenia, genuinely sorry. I haven't noticed this is a qoute. I thought this is just wiki editor doing biased editorialising.

you can see that there was an edit before wikifying the qoute with a link to the subject wiki entry, causing me to not notice that quotation marks Jazi Zilber (talk) 04:52, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dan Ariely article updates & corrections

Hi YechezkelZilber! I have been trying to help get Dan Ariely’s article fixed up in English (and Hebrew) but I know him personally so cant edit the article directly given COI. I saw that you have been one of the contributors to the article talk page and wonder if we could give you the recommended updates to consider? Non promotional - just trying to fix the inaccurate info (he is no longer married), and get the info current. Thank you for any reply! DrMel (talk) 19:03, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

sure. go ahead. here in Wikipedia, everything needs a reference from "reliable sources" = news articles, etc. not from random blogs or twitter Jazi Zilber (talk) 06:38, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
