Ray Benson

[edit]

Changes made to Ray Benson's page are factual, especially the one about the funeral - it is true and factual. This is supposed to be about facts, not if they are nice or not.

apology

[edit]

Hi, I just wanted to apologize for my edit on the nuclear stockpile page. I was trying to demonstrate to someone that Wikipedia information could not be blindly considered proof by changing the article and rolling it back a second later, but over the argument forgot to roll it back (and in retrospective I should not have done it in the first place). So, again, sorry for the screwup, and thank you for taking your time to keep Wikipedia free from morons such as myself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.197.16.22 (talk) 03:47, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

revert

[edit]

Why did you revert my contribution to Bogoliubov Transformation mid way through my edit? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.67.128.48 (talk) 19:31, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

[edit]

Hi Bobo192,

I'm aware that you are a well established editor and administrator but I just wanted to inform you that I think it would be appreciated if you provided more detailed edit summaries than the automatic edit summaries when reverting edits. For example, you reverted an edit quite some time ago on Kicking Horse Resort (diff) without any rationale in the edit summary. The revert had little significance but I think it would be appreciated, especially by the editors that you are reverting, if you provided more detailed edit summaries.

On the specific case of Kicking Horse Resort, no action needs to be taken. This is just a friendly comment.

Thanks for your time, Billscottbob (talk) 04:49, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ringo Starr / infobox

[edit]

There appears to be some controversy brewing re. the infobox in the Ringo Starr article. I just wanted to suggest that the infobox should contain (as it now does again) the name "Ringo Starr", as he is commonly known, and certainly not ever "Ringo Starkey", as he is never known.

The name issue has been discussed enough; check the discussion page, I think you'll find some info there. His birth name is Richard Starkey, but the name by which he is known is Ringo Starr.

Wikipedia:Tip of the day/March 24

[edit]

Hi there, The Transhumanist. It's good to make contact with you after having watched you work for so long in so many areas of the project.

I do have a question regarding the link I have provided, and I don't wish to act until I know I'm either doing the right thing or entirely the wrong thing. March 24's Tip of the day implies in the header that transclusion and inclusion are two different things, but the tip itself implies that the opposite of transclusion is separate from substitution, and analogous to inclusion. I hope that with your say-so, the heading should be changed to read Transclusion vs. Substitution. Bobo. 22:15, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That would be good. "Transclusion" and "inclusion" mean the same thing, so the tip title needs to be fixed. Thank you for spotting that. And it's nice to meet you. The Transhumanist 22:40, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings and Help?

[edit]

Hi, I am a new user and I see a page where you recently made some changes which appears vandalized.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonial_history_of_New_Jersey

If you scroll down to the "New Sweden" entry, some childish person has inserted some anti-wiki rubbish. Why didn't I fix it? Well, the vandalism seems to have survived a few reversions including your own, and I am a total newb here. I hoped if I brought it to someone who is knowledgeable, they could fix it better than I. I so far confine myself to fixing typos.

Thank you kindly for your time,

Warning users after vandalism

[edit]

Hey I notice you do some good vandal-watching but it is important to warn users after they vandalize pages, as typically we can only go to AIV after they've been handed first, second, third, and fourth-level warnings. (Twinkle is a great way to easily warn users). Thanks! xenocidic (talk) 21:27, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting

[edit]

Please review the revision history of Monarch butterfly. You reverted one vandal, but the version you reverted to was also vandalized. Please try to make sure you don't do this again. An IP seems to have picked up on it and completed the reversion. Thanks. Richard001 (talk) 07:41, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mmbabies

[edit]

Please note the talk page you moved from talk space to mainspace at 51st Marine Expeditionary Unit was a false copy of 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit created by the community banned user Mmbabies because he seems to be in love with the number 51 and he uses talkspace to get around RC patrollers and keep his nonsense on longer. No harm, no foul, but created false material is part of his modus and I'm sure it was inadvertent on your part. Make sure to note this next time a situation like this pops up. Thank you.

Chef At Home

[edit]

I am just wondering why the article on Chef At Home was deleted? Mr. C.C. (talk) 06:34, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was asking as you were the one who deleted the article. Chef at Home is a cooking show on Food Network Canada.
The way the article sounds in my head is promotional. So, I will have to work that out. But yeah, you answered my question sufficiently. Mr. C.C. (talk) 17:57, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Berkeley Law School

[edit]

May I ask why you reverted the changes I made to the Boalt Hall page? As far as I am concerned (and I am an alumnus from this school and I am financially supporting it), the official name of the school is now Berkeley Law. Boalt Hall is to be used only among students/alumni/faculty. Outside, the short name is Berkeley Law. The name of the school for Wikipedia should therefore be Berkeley Law http://www.law.berkeley.edu/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.203.176.227 (talk) 15:23, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


No problem Bobo... can you please make sure the changes are taken in consideration? I must say I am not an Wiki expert and it seems the Boalt Hall pages still does not direct to the Berkeley Law page... thanks 194.203.176.227 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 16:10, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

TOTD

[edit]

Note that we have the TOTD department set up around the "yearless year". That means the same pages are used year after year. Sometime after the first of the year, the entire yearless year is copied to archive pages to preserve a historical record of the tips displayed over the past year. 2007 has been copied/archived, which means you can change the yearless year pages any way you want (replace tips with new ones, change their order, etc.) - but not those that have already passed (unless you copy/archive them first - they need to be copied to 2008's archive before replacing them with 2009's tips). The links to the archives are included at the bottom of the main TOTD page. The Transhumanist 01:05, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Does that make sense?  :) The Transhumanist 01:09, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Project

[edit]

Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.

If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 17:13, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Josh Coulthurst

[edit]

You're welcome. If you'd like a reference, the 1920 Wisden had the following in the Notes by the Editor: "I have no wish to pat myself on the back or exult unduly over the abandonment of the two-day scheme in county cricket. I felt sure the experiment--hastily determined on--would not answer, the objections to it being so obvious. It was doomed before the season had run half its course, and in August the Advisory Committee decided unanimously to go back to three-day matches in 1920." See [1] JH (talk page) 17:43, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

endorsements

[edit]

I saw that you removed all the hidden endorsements from the campaign articles so I decided to put them all back. I am not trying to derail your work it is just my opinion that the lists look more encyclopedic when they are concealed and not out in the open. Perhaps you have a good rationale for your changes, and I would like to discuss this but I don't know where the proper forum for that would be.--William Saturn (talk) 04:01, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am sure this was discussed in the past but it is now probably deep in the talk page archives of some article. According to [2] & [3] there seems to be a long standing consensus and favorablity toward the hidden endorsement lists.--William Saturn (talk) 21:23, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Marking revert minors

[edit]

Hi, when reverting vandalism could you mark edit as non-minor? This helps, because some users configure watchlists to filter minor edits. Nevertheless, you are doing a good job here - thanks. --Kubanczyk (talk) 11:49, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A "piped" one

[edit]

I do not wish to insult anyone with the "animals" link (which you recently deleted) on The Celtic Song. The purpose of Wikipedia is to provide information. This is valid information, just like the other links in the middle of the songs: Scottish Cup, Celtic Park etc.

Please do not deny others what could be considered useful information, no matter how unpleasant. 70.90.198.172 (talk) 02:02, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

[edit]

Hello. No reply necessary, just to let you know that your rollback on Einstein (US-CERT program)‎ was reverted because the anonymous user was entirely correct. —SusanLesch (talk) 05:22, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, the page is fine (and I hope remember too to check how far back I am rolling). It just happened that what that user added is probably the only information the public will have about Einstein 2. I'm happy to find out it was published. Thanks for your note. —SusanLesch (talk) 18:38, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lebanon Raceway "spam links"

[edit]

Not quite sure what you were doing by removing the website links to the official web site at Lebanon Raceway as well as that of the Warren County Fair.

Movie Man 07

[edit]

Hello, I noticed that you reverted the page on St. Theresa Catholic Secondary School. Everything that I had added was true and reliable, as there were citations.

Sir Frank Cyril Hawker

[edit]

I think you will find that Sir Cyril Hawker died at Etchingham, East Sussex. He was at Hadlow Lodge, Nursing Home. Sir Cyril was a former president of Blackboys Cricket Club and his wife Lady Hawker is still a patron, she still lives at Etchingham. Sir Cyril was also involved heavily with the setting up of the National Playing Fields Association. Can you verify as to whether (this) Sir Cyril Hawker was involved with the Bank of England and also with the M.C.C. --CorporalJones (talk) 06:53, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I was merely working from the source which I was using to write the article (the same as the external link at the bottom) which claims he was born in Epping and died in Hastings. If you have any evidence to the contrary, please cite this in the article, While I can't personally verify that the same Cyril Hawker was with the Bank of England, I would be interested to see if this information was available somewhere — and seeing that you know more about this than I do, I wonder if you are able to tell me whereabouts to look for this information.

Thank you for contacting me, it's always interesting to me to see if accepted information is able to be challenged by evidence elsewhere.

Hello

To be fair, I don't know that much. I am the current secretary of Blackboys Cricket Club and in my records, I have correspondence (postcard) from Sir Cyril Hawker in 1990 his address is Etchingham. Likewise, in 1991 I have correspondence from Lady Hawker expressing thanks for our sympathy with regards to Sir Cyril's death. In her note, she mentions his connection with the National Playing Fields Association. I don't know anything about the Bank of England; however a google search seem to indicate a connection. I am trying to find out information on my club and past personnel. Hence, my contact with yourself.

You will have to excuse me, as I am new to wiki procedures - not too sure how to cite this sort of information correctly.

Thnaks for your time. --CorporalJones (talk) 11:31, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
