Image Tagging Image:LibertyStadium.jpg

This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:LibertyStadium.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. cohesion★talk 00:29, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

As a past participant in the discussion on how to handle the Georgia pages, I thought you might be interested to know that there's a new attempt to reach consensus on the matter being addressed at Talk:Georgia (country)#Requested_Move_-_July_2006.

well i understand, but how can you discriminate against small organizations, just because we are not as big as a Microsoft you guys want to kick us out, i wrote a legitimate article. that's why i use Google when i want to find something, because they don't discriminate like wikipedia does, i am very dissatisfied with the way things were handled

Speedy deletion

Hi there; when you place a speedy deletion tag on an article, it is better if you place it above the existing text, not below it. This allows other editors to see that the tag is in place.--Anthony.bradbury 00:16, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Actually no, it doesn't always. Putting tags at the top is Wiki policy, it's not just me. --Anthony.bradbury 00:26, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Friend, I have no intention of criticising, so please do not take offence. We are both on the same side in our attempts to keep our encyclopedia clean. I am only passing on policy as it has been passed to me.--Anthony.bradbury 00:35, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

NVC articles - naming conventions

Hi. I noticed that you changed the name of one of the NVC community articles - I think it would be useful to establish a consensus view on how these articles should be named, and then use it for all communities. Would you be happy to take part? I suggest the main NVC page is probably the best place to hold the discussion. Cheers SP-KP 17:06, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi. Can you point me at the relevant sections within these policies as they're quite large pages. Thanks. SP-KP 17:42, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

OK thanks - that seems like sensible reasoning - I'll follow the same approach for future NVC pages I create. Did you plan to rename the other existing ones, for consistency? SP-KP 18:22, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

S1 & M20 don't look right; other than that it looks like you've sorted them out - thanks. SP-KP 19:18, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi,

Just came by to note that I reverted your edit to Orkut Büyükkökten. Though a proper noun, 'orkut' (the website) is written as 'orkut', and not 'Orkut'.

Blanking is considered vandalism as per Wikipedia policy which you quote
PalX 09:33, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

• Hi, I just have to say that I really disagree with your recent blanking and redirecting of several future sporting events. First, as a matter of principle, I think you should have tagged the articles in question and linked to some centralized discussion, or discuss each case in the article's talk page, before making such big changes. Second, I disagree on your reading of crystal-balling. I agree that when the event is too far out in the future to have any good information it doesn't deserve an article, but in some cases there is reliable and verifiable information at hand which is of interest to readers. To say that an event is "scheduled" or that a country/city has announced it will bid to host the event is not speculation. They are completely verifiable facts. I agree though that there is too much speculation around, for instance saying that Venezuela is a potential host candidate for the 2014 WC just because they'll have several new stadiums soon. But this means that the articles need to be improved, not completely blanked. Also, I read your comment in an AfD for some distant Olympics that you thought that the 2008 US presidential election deserves an article at this point, despite not knowing who's actually going to run, since it is the next one. If this is the case, I think it's appropriate for the 2014 WC to have an article, since it is also the immediate next edition for which a formal bidding process will start, and there is plenty of information about it. 2018 and beyond can wait, I would certainly agree with that. Finally, you even blanked the 2009 Confederations Cup, for which we already know the host country and another participating team, so you'll surely agree that it does merit an article at this point. I'm not going to go through all the articles you changed, but it's likely that you were too quick in blanking other ones. Anyway, I hope you reconsider the changes you've made, I won't revert them myself. Thanks, regards, --Gabbec 15:36, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Edit warring

Can you please be more careful to stay clear from anything that could be perceived as a violation of WP:3RR? There are better ways to settle disputes (WP:3O is one) and you lose the moral high ground that way. Grouse 11:44, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page.

I didn't know you'd invented a new policy... :@

Why do you delete perfectly reasonable articles. Future spoting events do happen, so it is not made up. it is referenced and people may need to have some information on future sporting events, to look at the competition or get tickets for it! why do you do this. In case you hadn't figured out the new policy you seem to have invented, its lets delete reasonable articles and annoy people who need that article for future reference. i am pretty annoyed.

Re: 2014 FIFA World Cup

Well, he does say on that talk page that "messages will be removed." (Which is an idiotic way to behave, but at least shouldn't make you surprised that it happens.)

Also, you weren't exactly "engaging in conversation" about what should happen to it...you were saying "STOP! You are wrong. And because of you being wrong, I'll treat you as a vandal by using generic talk page messages, too."

While I'm at it, re your last comment on Talk:2018_FIFA_World_Cup#Article_deletion. and I will probably put the redirect back in if some additional not-crystalballing information turns up somewhere. That "somewhere" means "another place to redirect it"? Sam Vimes | Address me 21:01, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Response

S4C Closedown Screen wasn't notable for being a programme on S4C. Is that why it was limited to a small paragraph on the S4C main article? What does small 's' and small 'c' something about the grand scale of things mean? (Cepb 12:37, 13 December 2006 (UTC))

2008 Categories

May I direct you to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Computer and Video Games? N. Harmonik 17:08, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

An NBA season is both notable and expected to take place.

Also posted under talk page for 2008-09 NBA season

Sure thing. I removed the proposed deletion tag, since I believe that the 2008-09 NBA season article should be not be deleted w/o discussion, as per WP:CRYSTAL.

Three points to consider with Crystal Ball:

1) Individual scheduled or expected future events should only be included if the event is notable and almost certain to take place.

• I contend that the 2008-2009 NBA season is both notable and virtually certain to take place. Therefore, I disagree with WP:PROD.

2) Similarly, individual items from a predetermined list or a systematic pattern of names, preassigned to future events or discoveries, are not suitable article topics, if only generic information is known about the item

• I would agree that this is an arguable point to delete this article, but not without discussion. There is speculation that certain cities may host the 2009 NBA All-Star game. Therefore, I disagree with WP:PROD.

3) Articles that present extrapolation, speculation, and "future history" are original research and therefore inappropriate....

• Not applicable in this case, IMO.

Now, I can see reasons to delete this article, but I can also see reasons NOT to delete this article. For instance, there are a few cities that would be considered front-runners for the 2009 NBA All-Star Game Game]],. For the record, the 2009 All-star game article is bunk and needs to be fixed.

Although the location of the 2009 NBA All-star game is ofically undecided, by nature of precident of other similar future-scheduled sporting events that are expected to take place, such as the 2018 Winter Olympics, I think it can be argued to keep the article. The NBA announced the 2008 All-Star game on May 22, 2006, which means that a decision would be forthcoming from the NBA within about 6 months. There is certainly specualtion considering what city may play host to this event.

Personally, this is where I draw the line, albeit weakly. I would agree that anything beyond 2009 is pure specualtion and would fall under WP:PROD as per WP:CRYSTAL. There is a very small set of information, however, which is just as speculative in nature as the 2018 Winter Olympics, that is applicable to the 2008-2009 NBA season.

Therefore, at the very least, deletion in this case should be discussed. I do not feel strongly enough to list it under AFD, however.

Consensus on Young Bond

Please reach a consensus on Young Bond Book 4 and Young Bond Book 5 before redirecting once again. This back and forth stuff needs to stop.

Common era

I noticed you modified the Common era article to compute the year in other eras from the current year. I have two problems with this:

1. Some of these eras do not begin on January 1 of the Gregorian calendar, so there are two "correct" conversions during any Gregorian year. The article was already flawed; it would have been more appropriate to say something like "The Hebrew calendar dates from the traditional Jewish date of Creation (according to which the year beginning September 26, 2003 was 5764 [Anno Mundi|AM]] (Astronomical Almanac 2003, p. B2)." Your edit makes the problem worse, in that the method for finding the year is obscured to the reader who does not view the source, so the nature of the problem is hidden.

1. If the page is printed, there is no indication that the compuation was done in 2007, and the phrase "current year" has no meaning. Also, if a reader does not view the source, the reader will not know a computation is being done, and will presume "current year" refers to the time the section was written, an unknown date.

re: your request on Wikipedia:Deletion review/Content review

I have temporarily posted the page's contents to User:Chriscf/List of articles on criticism in Wikipedia. While in your userspace, you may attempt to clean up the article and improve it to meet Wikipedia's generally accepted standards. You may not create links to the page while it is in your userspace and you should not attempt to move any revised version into the article-space until you get some independent opinions that the issues raised during the original AFD discussion have been successfully addressed.

I'm guessing that your intent is to merge any missed content into either Category:Criticisms or Wikipedia:List of criticism articles. If so, you might want to quickly convert both pages to the category. The conclusions of the AFD discussion clearly apply to this new page. I'm going to tag it as a speedy-delete|repost but will add a {{hangon}} tag so you can gather have a bit of working time.

Please also remember that this is a temporary restoration only. When you are finished with the version in your userspace, please tag the page with {{db-userreq}}. Thanks. Rossami (talk) 23:51, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:TNA iMPACT!

In my opinion there was not a consensus to move. If you look through the archives of Wikipedia talk:Requested moves you will see that I an familiar with the WP:RM process and unlike some other admins take the opinion that the people who express an opinion on the page to be moved are the best to make the judgement about whether the page move goes ahead. If someone wishes to point out to them that the page ought to be moved to because to do so will place the name within Wikipedia guidelines then they are free to do so and presumably the people expressing an opinion will then decide if they wish to be persuaded by such arguments. I do not approve of the POV of the admin making the move being the sole criteria for the move. Only if the POV of the admin tips the balance either side of the 60% should the admin get involved in the decision (apart from walking away and not naking a decision). In this case I choose not be be involved, because I am not convinced by the information you presented in the discussion that I should reverse the decision. --Philip Baird Shearer 18:06, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Counting reverts

Please don't do that. This - [1] [2] [3] - isn't cool. You're not allowed three reverts; you're asked not to edit war. An admin closed the moves as a no consensus, which I agree was wrong, but the best reaction is not to try to do an end run around the close, citing some loopholoe from some ArbCom case. That smacks of Wikilawyering. We just need to request broader input, and it's very likely that the community will speak out against cutesy capitalization. If they don't, then it's us who's wrong.

Please try not to do anything that involves repeated reversions. Some admins will block you for that, even if you don't go over three. There are better ways to skin a cat, it turns out. -GTBacchus^(talk) 10:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Please use your judgment

I seriously question the usefulness and utility of upgrading this anonymously-placed PROD to fully-fledged AFD. In general, if you're doing something for procedural reasons only, you shouldn't be doing it. Anyway, the correct response to a PROD you don't feel is valid is to remove the prod, not to escalate it. If whoever placed the prod really feels strongly about it they can bring it to AFD. You shouldn't. --Cyde Weys 18:09, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

User notice: temporary 3RR block

Regarding reversions[4] made on February 22 2007 to Springfield Park Elementary School

You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future.

The duration of the block is 8 hours. William M. Connolley 22:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Copy and pasted from WP:AN/3RR:

Reverts don't need to be 100% identical to fall under 3RR, and don't need to all revert back to the same previous version. Where possible, I noted the differences between the reverts, but with so many in such a short period, it simply wasn't possible. I apologize on fourth one that you pointed out; I was confusing the Extracurricular list with the Administrators list. The fifth revert is a revert though, as you reverted to the version you created with the fourth revert, et cetera.

I strongly disagree with the "talk page bit being bogus" as William said. Users are not supposed to blank warning messages, especially since in this case the 3RR warning was clearly valid.

That being said, I reported this solely as a neutral third party (hence reporting both users), and hopefully an eight-hour block will be more than enough to cool heads. -- NORTH ^talk 22:57, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi again. I'm sorry, currently, I'm not willing to agree to a request to stop adding new pages, as previous discussions among editors resulted in a consensus that one page per community type was sensible; I'm more than happy to revisit the issue if you would like to, and if the outcome of a discussion is that that is not now appropriate, I will of course change my approach in line with any revised consensus.

Class 378

Please see TfL Board Meeting, 25/10/06 Agenda Item 4, Page 5 "Following the announcement for 44 trains for London Overground services, Bombardier have started mobilisation at their Derby plant.

Re:brian d foy

I did in fact read through all the arguments, and the arguments raised by the supporters of the move such as WP:MOS#Identity and Wikipedia:Naming conflict#Proper_nouns do in fact make some sense, and this time I felt that the consensus was to move. I also took into account the fact that quite a few of the supports were from anonymous editors or those with very few edits. I hope that clarifies it - but if you still cannot see how possibly I could have come up with a move consensus, let me know. enochlau (talk) 01:51, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I've read everything again, and I still think it's the right decision. What I'm confused about is if you claim that WP:NCON does not care about capitalisation, how do you explain bell hooks, k.d. lang and fIREHOSE (examples given on the talk page)? enochlau (talk) 02:14, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

NVC - reply

Chris, I've said I'm happy to engage with you in a discussion on this. I've also said that as previous discussions determined that one page per community was OK, I'm going to continue to create them until that changes - you can't expect editors to change long-established practice just on the basis of one editor's views. Given this, I don't think I'm being at all unreasonable. You've said that there is an existing discussion on this, but I've not been able to find that - as I've said above if you can point me at it, I'll be happy to contribute.

Metal Gear Solid

Thank you for the editing on my minor addition to the Metal Gear Solid article. When I woke up this morning, someone had completely taken out the entire paragraph I had added without leaving a comment, and I felt somewhat insulted. The final version that you left me with is precisely what I was looking for. The ranking system at the end of the game has always been one of my favorite features, and I felt it necesary to be added to the article. I've actually replayed the entire game several times (consecutively) in order to tinker with the ranking screen, and it was something that my friends and I have always enjoyed. Thanks to the input of a second person - you, hopefully my little addition will remain on the article. I appreciate what you have done and I will gladly accept any additional help in the future.Silent Siberia, 14/03/07, 01:17 GMT

Fascism and Nazism as representative forms of socialism

I am sorry to bother you, but I really need some help. There is an ongoing campaign by a few editors to portray Fascism and Nazism as representative forms of socialism. As part of this effort (a debate that stretches back to 2004), there are a tiny handful of editors who revert and redirect National Socialism to Nazism. I believe a majority of editors support redirecting National Socialism to National Socialism (disambiguation). I realize we just had a poll on the Nazism page where I thought this issue was settled, but apparently the struggle is not over. Please consider voting in the new poll, or adding a comment at: Talk:Nazism#Survey:_redirecting_National_Socialism. Also consider notifying other editors with an interest in this matter. I am doing the best I can, but need assistance. Thanks.--Cberlet 17:04, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Cfd

Chris,

You may not be aware of this, but the provision we are discussing in WP:PEREN was added by a specific user to make a point in a discussion on WP:Cfd; I have challenged him repeatedly to provide me with a prior proposal from the archives of WP:Cfd to mandate notice, and he has not done so, pointing me instead to discussions on WP:Afd. There is a material difference, since categories do not autowatchlist and there are more often deleted without any of the people who have worked on them receiving notice. You can find this discussion starts at Wikipedia talk:Categories for discussion#Proposed change and continues at Wikipedia talk:Categories for discussion#Wait a minute. I have been through the last year's worth of archives, and while there has been recent discussion over the question of the lack of notice, I have found no proposal to mandate notice.

WP:PEREN is a nice little tool to shout down people whom one disagrees with, and that is how it was used in this case, with the editor, of course, inserting the unsupported little gem immediately before flogging me with it. After repeated requests, I still haven't gotten my answer - so, now I'll ask you, since you keep reverting the point, can you find me any proof in the archives that there is a perrenial proposal to require notice on a CfD? If you can't find this and show that it is indeed a perennial issue, I'd appreciate it if you would revert your change. A Musing (formerly Sam) 23:37, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, here is where the language was added to WP:PEREN: [5] and here is where the point was used in an argument,[6]; apparently, he didn't like the reading of WP:PEREN because it didn't make his point, so he changed it. I do believe it is appropriate when someone argues like that for me to ask for support, just as I think it is appropriate whenever anyone adds something to Wikipedia to ask for a source. As noted, I also think there is a difference in notice between the AfD and the CfD situation, and while the underlying proposal of requiring notice is not one I am pursuing, I'm rather disappointed that the crew on this particular page seems more fond of citing to lots of policies and changing pages to suit them rather than engaging in a straightforward discusion on the merits.

I would prefer not to leave WP:PEREN with unsupported language in it; if you do not want to go find some support, or if USER:Radiant doesn't want to find the support, the language should be put my way. A Musing (formerly Sam) 00:23, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Chris, come on, restore the tag, the stuff is dispute. And that gives you 3 reverts as well, which you know is improper. A Musing (formerly Sam) 00:35, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

I have done nothing improper. Chris, do you disagree with me that the content is in dispute? We are disputing it here, are we not? That is the purpose of the tag. A Musing (formerly Sam) 00:45, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Vinyl Art

I was answering someone's question, not trawling through Image space for copyvios. Of course one challenges such things; that what I did. It's useless to ask the uploader directly on Wikipedia; if he deliberately mistagged it why should he tell the truth when asked? I contacted him at the account on DA where he had posted it, under the account name he uses there, and he confirmed there that he was the same user who had done the upload.

You've seen the photo; it's not just an album cover but an arrangement of objects including an album cover. It appears to me that it isn't a derivative work in the ordinary sense. (If you took a photo of someone who happened to be holding the album, would that be a derivative work?) TCC (talk) (contribs) 01:17, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Images in infoboxes

I'm saddened that you should use weasel words such "This was proposed on the project talk page, and was not opposed." when it would be more honest to say, "I suggested it and no-one else has made a comemnt". As you can see only one person put all these nameboards up, it would have been nice if you'd alerted me on my talk page first - it's just common politeness. I'm not going to get into an edit war with you over this, I can see from some other similar edits that you care not for the opinion of other editors and are determined to have your way. Sadly it's editors like you who make Wikipedia an unpleasant place at times. Remember, it's everybody's Wikipedia - not just yours.  :-( DrFrench 21:33, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh haha. Very good. There's a world of difference between recerting to the status quo and forcing through changes that you want without any consensus. That's what I meant bny everybody's Wikipedia. Don't bother responding with any smartarse comments, I;d rather you spoent the time building some consensus for your future change proposals. DrFrench 21:45, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

And what does the first policy say? "Wikipedia works by building consensus." Obviously you and I are not going to agree on thjis. I suggest that we both walk away and try to avoid each other in future. I'm guessing that would make us both happier. DrFrench 21:52, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for providing a 3O in the Tírghrá dispute. I'm one of the two parties involved in this disagreement. I've not quite understood your point. Could you please restate it more clearly? Does the Tírghrá reference have a green or red light, in your opinion? Thanks. Itayb 13:57, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

I agree I would like clarification. You can have no basis that the book is not a reliable source. It is used as a source by a number of accepted reliable sources - therefore that conveys reliable staus on it. Additonally is is the ONLY reliable source for a much information on republicans and is seen of the official "who's who" for those in the republican movement that have lost their lives. Additonally it is used as a reference in multiple articles and none of the information within in has ever been shown to be incorrect.--Vintagekits 14:36, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

The book is used as a source in a number of articles such as Diarmuid O'Neill, James McDade, Kevin Lynch (hunger striker), Kieran Fleming, Martin McCaughey, Raymond McCreesh, Dessie Grew, Antoine Mac Giolla Bhrighde, Martin Hurson, Michael Devine, Michael Gaughan (Irish republican), Billy Reid (Irish republican), Kevin Coen, Daniel McCann, Provisional IRA East Tyrone Brigade, Mairéad Farrell, Francis Hughes, Thomas Begley and Joseph MacManus.--Vintagekits 14:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your comment on the BRITTANICA discussion. The article just isn't worth debating over. The last thing I need is to have somebody saying to me "Come down from there at once! Good God, you are making a complete spectacle of yourself!" Seriously, thanks. I withdrew my objection to the deletion. I would appreciate it if you could get me a copy of the article to keep, as I do not have one, and I might want to switch it around so it's less controversial and remake it someday, or break it up and slip portions of it into other articles, or at the very least archive it so I can laugh at all the people with no sense of humor, lol.

I would suggest you put the images back in the infoboxes. Unilaterally removing them when there is community concensus for using them could be construed as vandalism. -Nv8200p talk 01:47, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

They have encyclopedic value. They are in an article properly titling an infobox for that article. They have as much encyclopedic value as using text. -Nv8200p talk 01:49, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

The overwhelming support for not deleting the images signals a concensus to me. You would have to cite a policy that indicates infobox titles cannot be images. -Nv8200p talk 01:51, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Tyne and Wear metro nameboards

Please stop edit-warring over the issue of nameboards for the Tyne and Wear Metro station articles (e.g. Haymarket Metro station). Some kind of compromise needs to be reached, and persistent tit-for-tat reversions will not achieve this. I have left this message for all the editors involved.

As a compromise, I suggest having the nameboards somewhere else in the article but not as the station name in the infobox. Personally, I think this is the fairest solution. Please give it consideration. --RFBailey 19:44, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

FYI

Hi, there is currently an open discussion on whether or not DeviantArt should be moved back to deviantART. An earlier mediation on the same issue has been presented as a previous consensus in favor of "deviantART", yet it struck me as never having much of a discussion attached to it. Since you seem to have been involved to some degree, maybe you could offer some insight on that? - Cyrus XIII (talk) 10:22, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Chriscf! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 460 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Geraint Vincent - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
