I think the assessment bot will work correctly now ... let me know if you have any problems with it. -- Prove It (talk) 02:43, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, but I probably won't be watching the category after this. I only created it b/c it was on the list of Special:Wantedcategories. I hope I've not been making too much extra work for you, as I've seen you following in the wake of my category creations. Happy Fourth, and all that! :) -Ebyabe 12:06, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
I see kinda what you mean, though. I'll try to remember to incorporate that sort of stuff in future category creations. -Ebyabe 12:09, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I have tagged Image:Okeeffeastarzan.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. Videmus Omnia 19:14, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Image:Okeeffeastarzan.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Okeeffeastarzan.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia 19:14, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Email

You have email. IvoShandor 23:18, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Received and concocting response. :) --Ebyabe 23:38, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
Response sent. I fear the formatting may have been lost, and it came out as one big icky paragraph. I hope not. :( --Ebyabe 23:56, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
I did get your email and what you said helped. I am now trying to avoid all confrontations, mostly ignoring any comments I think are meant to inflame my anger. I really do the writing thing best anyway, so I don't need the mop and bucket, better to let someone else do it anyway (probably a lot of work). IvoShandor 21:16, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

"category correction"

I'm a little puzzled by this edit of yours: "category correction" seems to mean category deletion, and the article's in the latest version of "Wikipedia:Good articles" under Arts > Art and architecture > Artists. Not that I particularly mind, but it's all rather odd. What's going on here? (Probably something very simple and innocuous. And you're welcome to reply here rather than on my talk page.) -- Hoary 23:56, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Simple and innocuous? That's me. Well, maybe a bit simple-minded... ;)
That's kind of my default AWB setting. Sometimes it's for category deletion, sometimes for category refinement, I guess you'd say. I'm doing a slow cleanup of Special:Wantedcategories. The one you're referring to was b/c with the option before, it created Category:Wikipedia good articles on artists. Looked in Category:Wikipedia good biographies, but couldn't find any pre-existing category that came close, so I removed it from there and a few others that had it. I thought about creating a category, but wasn't sure how to properly. In some cases, I've created categories where it seems appropriate. Otherwise, I've been taking away the redlink categories.
Hope that explains. If there's a better way to go about this, please to advise. I'm always willing to learn. I've heard that one learns from their mistakes. Which is why I am the mega-genius I am today, doncha know. ;) -Ebyabe 00:20, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Ah, yes, I see. Thank you! -- Hoary 05:21, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
You're quite welcome. :) --Ebyabe 14:35, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

LACMTA Orange Line

I noticed that you marked a passage in the article on the LACMTA Orange Line as having weasel words. Could you clarify what you mean, how is saying that "transit advocates" feel a certain way classify as a weasel word? (I'm new to the concept of weasel words) If you feel this way about that sentence, why not just fix it by rewording it to not include weasel words? I don't mean to be attacking you in any way, I've just noticed weasel words being marked for a while and I would like to see it fixed, I'd do it myself, but I don't see how. RickyCourtney 02:37, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

I wasn't really marking the passage, I was just changing the template {{WW}} to {{weasel-inline}}. The former, which someone else added, was creating a redlink category, Category:All articles with weasel words. The latter one achieved the same effect, without making the redlink, which is why I changed it. I'm trying to clear the Special:Wantedcategories backlog, and that was one of them. Hope that helps. Cheers! -Ebyabe 14:34, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Celestiial

Can I ask why you changed the good article category on this? J Milburn 10:33, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

It was creating a redlink category, Category:Arts good articles. I'm trying to clear the Special:Wantedcategories backlog, and that was one of them. Thought it was better to do that, than create a potentially non-appropriate category. I see you found another way to fix it, which is cool. -Ebyabe 14:29, 1 July 2007 (UTC)


NRHP Updates

I decided to tackle the updates. Just a glutton for punishment, I guess Einbierbitte 17:18, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

I will comment on the other discussion above.

As for the FL it seems that the key is a low percentage of non-red links. As far as article quality, oodles of the Chicago Landmarks articles are stubs. But in general I think a new format is needed for all of the articles "List of Registered Historic Places in . . ." First of, most of the lists link to the county in the headlines which is an MOS no-no and they are largely unwieldy as lists anyway, they are very long lists which makes them cumbersome off the bat. I like the list I concocted for List of properties (Central Park West Historic District), I like the sortable tables, I also like how Chicago Landmark used the images alongside the list and it still looked good. You will need some sort of text introduction that does the upcoming list justice, prepare the reader for what they are about to be overwhelmed with ; ). That's pretty much what I know about the process, I suggest reading over the Featured List Criteria.

Personally, I would like to raise several of my articles to FA level and then try to GA some related articles and then go for some Featured topics. Right now I think that Sycamore Historic District, University of Illinois Experimental Dairy Farm Historic District]], Central Park West Historic District, Frank Lloyd Wright-Prairie School of Architecture Historic District and their affiliated articles would all have a good shot at featured topic. They all need a bit of work but it would be a good thing to shoot for I think, racking up featured material would be great, it might be a reason to start thinking about the portal, A-class reviews (which I have a much better idea about now) again. IvoShandor 21:28, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Symplectic geometry

Hello, I would like to draw your attention to the discussion at WT:WPM#Symplectic geometry or symplectic topology?, where it was decided to create a new category Category:Symplectic geometry and move articles which are currently misfiled under Category:Symplectic topology there. It seems that in the middle of this process you have started to roll back to symplectic topology. It would probably be easiest if you undid your changes. Best, Arcfrk 02:04, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Would it be possible for the category to be created first, please? I'm patrolling Special:Wantedcategories, and these showed up as redlinked categories, which is why I moved them. Isn't it better to have the category exist before moving stuff into it? Otherwise, someone else might do the same thing I did. Just a thought, that's all. :) --Ebyabe 02:08, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
Yes, you have a good point. There was still some discussion going about how to hierarchically arrange symplectic topics, but perhaps the best thing to do is to create the category now, and sort out the hierarchy later. Cheers, Arcfrk 02:20, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
Quite true, and it's on the top of my head. The point, that is. :) I went ahead and created the category, and added my standard "refine as needed" note in the edit summary. I'll work on undoing the rest, but it's [[Bedtime for Bonzo|bedtime], so until later...zzzz... :) -Ebyabe 02:30, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Locater maps

The locater maps on a lot of the historical site articles are giving me a problem. Many of them show the site displaced to the northwest form the actual location, so that sites on the west coast of Florida show as well out in the Gulf of Mexico, and sites in the Florida panhandle show as being well into Alabama. I have been adjusting these maps by eye as I come across them. I notice that you have recently changed the locations on the maps for San Pedro y San Pablo de Patale and Escambe. With your change, San Pedro y San Pablo de Patale now appears in my browser to be in Gadsden or Liberty County, rather than east of Tallahassee, and Escambe now appears to be well west of the Apalachicola River, rather than in Leon County.

So, do those dots appear in the correct location for you? -- Donald Albury 13:24, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure what happened, but they did get skewed. The changes I made have them showing correctly in my browser. If yours is showing differently, then I don't know what the problem is. There's always the drastic step of just removing all the maps completely. My goal anyway is to have pictures in all the Florida nrhp infoboxes. That's why I have my list to see what's left to do. -Ebyabe 14:17, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Alright, I'll continue to fix the obvious displacements. I've neglected taking the camera around for a while, haven't added any photos since February. -- Donald Albury 22:31, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Lillian Stewart Carl

I saw that you recently assesed Lillian Stewart Carl. Did you really think this was still at start class? What do you think would be needed to bring it up to class B? I thought I had followed pretty much all of the suggestions at [[1]]. DES (talk) 22:49, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the 2nd look. DES (talk) 23:19, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
You're welcome. I'm assessing articles for all sorts of different wikiprojects, just 'cause, and I can get a little kamikaze about it. But I always figure that if anyone begs to differ with a rating, they'll let me know, and ratings are easy enough to change. Basically, I figure it's better than having the articles not rated at all, doncha know. Cheers! :) -Ebyabe 23:36, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for making the category. As for the other category, I believe you should ask Wikipedia:WikiProject India for approval. --Lenticel (talk) 02:36, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Appeal from Barry friedman

Hello, Mr. Ebyabe: I have made several baseball edits to Wikipedia in the last month. You incorrectly accused me of being a "sockpuppet" of Ron Liebman. I am not involved with Ron (I have heard of him.) and the research is mine. Many of my edits, which I took the time and trouble to make, have been reverted. Either Wikipedia, or you specifically, must have a vendetta against Ron, who is a household name in the NY area, and has a good reputation in baseball. Ron is big enough to fight his own battles. I am seeking unblocking (reinstatement to Wikipedia) with my edits restored. (The edit you complained about was Piazza's 15-game rbi streak in 2000, which is known to be 2nd longest ever and is documented in many places including 2007 SABR List & Record Book - which has the blessings of major league baseball). Please reinstate me - without the need for arbitration. I left a message with John Reaves - apparently the administrator who approved the block. Please get this straighted out. This is embarrassing to me. Thanks a lot. This was obviously a misunderstanding on your part. Thanking you, Barry Friedman --149.4.108.35 15:39, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

You needn't have an account to edit. You can do so from the computer you're using now. However, the information you add must be from reliable sources. Simply saying it's from some book or other is insufficient by Wikipedia standards. You need to add the specific information. The section on citing sources should be read, so you can get a better idea of what is required. Understand, that the type of unsourced edits you made, if I hadn't removed them, someone else would have somewhere down the line, b/c you didn't cite them. So in a way, I did you a favor, since there could have been a whole bunch more articles that would have been reverted.
Oh, and to clear a misunderstanding. I'm not accusing the real world Ron Liebman of anything. Far from it. I don't believe he has anything to do with the person calling themselves "Ron liebman" on Wikipedia. I'm sure the real Mr. Liebman would never be so petty and unethical as to use different accounts to make changes which they should know by now would be reverted, since they're never cited. Or that he would feel the need to change the article about the actor Ron Leibman to say that the two are often confused. I'm sure the real Mr. Liebman's ego is secure enoug to know that, no matter how famous he may be in baseball research circles, to the general public he is completely unknown. It would be like saying that if, say, there's a grocery store clerk Paris Hilten in Hoboken, Illinois, she's often confused with the New York socialite, Paris Hilton. Everyone's heard of Paris Hilton, but if the Hoboken Hilten exists, no-one outside of Hoboken is likely to have ever heard of her.
Actually, you should consider contacting the actual Mr. Liebman and inform him of the person vandalizing articles here in his name, potentially damaging his good reputation. Maybe you can even find the impostor who's doing this, since they seem to be using the same library computers as you. B/c if the impostor continues, the entire library system there could be blocked from editting Wikipedia for a prolonged period. Which would not only inconvenience the vandal, but you or anyone else attempting to make genuine contributions.
So, why not make your edits using an anonymous account like you are doing now. If you can make edits that are appropriately cited, it would go a long way towards proving your good intent. Hope this helps. -Ebyabe 16:08, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
And it's not up to me to block you, but the admin who did the blocking. You'll have to wait and see what their response is to your request. Good luck, however it turns out. -Ebyabe 16:09, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
FYI, this IP user is at Queens College, City University of New York. Another NYC user... unlikely not to be the vandal. Georgewilliamherbert 23:27, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Oh, I completely agree; I'm more than 90% certain it's Ron. Who, from what Baseball Bugs has been able to determine, is the baseball researcher Ron Liebman after all. Which somehow brings to mind the line from The Breakfast Club, "Demented and sad, but social." Which I suppose some could say about Wikipedia. But you'll have that. :) Yeah, with the type of user name, and the style of edits, if it's not him, it's someone doing his dirty work for him. But I couldn't resist the opportunity to make another plea for sanity. I can be naive that way... :) -Ebyabe 23:43, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Do you have an active e-mail? Baseball Bugs 02:38, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
I do. -Ebyabe 14:56, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
I sent you a test, I got your confirmation back, and then I sent you an actual message. Baseball Bugs 00:21, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Got it. Shall peruse at mine leisure. :) -Ebyabe 00:38, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Posted here, seems to be the same troll who fooled me into trying to reason with him on 28 June. --CliffC 17:49, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Or, as we've come to know him, another in the Ron liebman sockpuppet brigade. I've reported it to ANI, and he should be indef blocked soon. But keep an eye out. Since yesterday was a holiday, he couldn't use any of the library computers he normally does. So he's well rested, and ready to vandalize with a vengeance, I suspect. I've got an eye on most of the accounts he frequents, but feel free to lemme know if you see any, so's I can report 'em. :) -Ebyabe 18:30, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

So far today, he's used the following, as far as I can tell:

A record? Nah. :) -Ebyabe 23:35, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

He was after Whitey Ford, Miguel Tejada, and a few others this afternoon, I think under both an IP address and yet another red-link user. Well-rested, indeed. I wonder if he's timing how long his edits last before they get reverted again. One thing I've stopped doing is making comments to him. "rvv" is quite sufficient, since anything else adds to whatever fun he gets from this. Baseball Bugs 00:23, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Oh, figured that out ages ago. I just use my saved copy-and-paste edit summary for him. It also helps that I really don't care about baseball, so he can't upset me that way. And his snide comments? Have you read the Harlan Ellison quote at the top of my main page? That's what I think of his attempts to attack me. ;) -Ebyabe 00:38, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Good ol' Harlan. I'm thinking of a corollary to that, the title of one of the late David Brinkley's collections of his witty commentaries from his Sunday morning program: Everyone Is Entitled to My Opinion. :) Baseball Bugs 00:50, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
And whilst I'm thinking about it, is this SABR of which he speaks considered a reliable source? B/c doesn't the "A" stand for "Amateur"? Just a wild pitch out of left field. Or something. Dang, see, can't even get baseball metaphors right! *lol* -Ebyabe 00:40, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
SABR = "Society for American Baseball Research". Their annuals are full of interesting stuff, all of it well-cited. Baseball Bugs 00:50, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
OK. I guess it's just his behaviour that makes me think it stands for "Amateur". Reply sent, btw. ;) -Ebyabe 00:56, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Got it and answered. Yes, don't judge all the SABR-ites by a few weird ones. Baseball Bugs 01:22, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Yes, a wise man once said, "Don't judge a whole group of people by the actions of a few." Words to live by. :) -Ebyabe 01:24, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Archie, the old philosopher. I remember a poster of Archie Bunker that was circulating for awhile in the mid-1970s: "There's a little o' me in all o' youse!" Baseball Bugs 01:26, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Colagrossi, yes... yet another one. It takes a lot of right-brain power to invent these names. Too bad he can't use some of that excess brain-power to find some citations. Baseball Bugs 23:01, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

But he does cite everything. In the edit summaries, where you're supposed... oh, never mind. :) -Ebyabe 23:31, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
I wouldn't even mind it in the edit summary, if it said something other than "trust me". Baseball Bugs 23:38, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Wondering About An Edit

I just noticed you make this edit: [2] and I'm wondering why you did. Wouldn't it be better to have it the previous way? -WarthogDemon 20:51, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey! Is the band Innosense or innosense. If the former, the change I made makes no difference. If the latter, there's a better way to have them sorted, and I can do that. Lemme know. :) -Ebyabe 20:55, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
It's the latter, innosense. :) -WarthogDemon 21:07, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
That's what I thought. There, now it should sort correctly. DEFAULTSORT is like putting whatever comes after the colon at the end of each category underneath it. Simpler, and easier to maintain, doncha know. :) -Ebyabe 21:15, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
I did not know that. O.o I learn something knew every day. :D Well, thanks again! ^_^ -WarthogDemon 21:35, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
You're quite welcome. I am the font of useless trivia; consider yourself anointed. Cheers! :) -Ebyabe 22:00, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Colagrossi, figured it out

It's Ron's other obsession, TV women. He's not done anything relating to The View in a while, which is surprising. But one of the edits he's done is to Lori Stokes. And whilst looking around, ran across Lisa Colagrossi. So another pattern to look for, New York female TV reporters... -Ebyabe 16:01, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Liebman is a retiree who probably gets to watch a lot of daytime TV. Baseball Bugs 18:29, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

user box category

I note that you have removed the category thing from my user boxes (for good reason...)(no offense). I didn't know how to make them untill I looked at the source of this. I am going to try making those categories now and put them back on the userboxes.(no offense meant). Sincerely, Sir intellegent - smartr tahn eaver!!!! 23:05, 8 July 2007 (UTC) P.S. (added 1-2 minuites after comment) I fell for that new messages bar thing by TomasBat. You might need to consider truing those links blue to fool more people...

That's cool. As long as redlink categories aren't created, I'm a happy camper. And I got some folks complaining about the new messages thing, so I split the difference by leaving it up, but making the links a bit less obviously link-ey. Is that a word? :) -Ebyabe 23:17, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, you've changed the ratings of several WP:Kent tags that point List of railway stations in Dover. You removed their "importance=NA" ratings and i can't fathom why? These article are redirects so the importance is "NA". What am i missing ? Cheers in advance Pickle 21:15, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

There is method to my madness. Usually. :) In this case, the former setting was creating Category:Non-article Unknown-importance Kent-related articles. It showed up on Special:Wantedcategories, which I'm keeping an eye on. The easiest fix was to change the importance rating to make it not create a redlink category. If you think that category should exist, however, I can create it and change them back. Just lemme know. Pip, pip, and all that rot, eh wot? :) -Ebyabe 23:17, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Miami-area special project: Your input needed!

Dear Ebyabe,

You appear to be active in WikiProject Miami, or have contributed a lot recently to Miami-related articles. I would like to invite you to contribute your opinions on a grant proposal for a project that may provide unique and helpful resources for Wikipedia in Miami.

Over the last six months, Wikipedia and Wikinews have been discussing a project proposal with the Knight Foundation which could create a new type of an environment for locally-oriented encyclopedic and news content. The general idea involves an official sanctioning of a local Wiki community in one or two charter areas, one of them being Miami. The Wiki community would be empowered to cover all things Miami -- even things that normally would not pass notability restrictions -- and cover both encyclopedic information as well as current events in the South Florida community. The proposal may even involve the creation of a physical "wiki space": some sort of a local room or office to coordinate efforts and provide community members with a place to create and edit articles.

I'm working on formalizing the proposal, and would like to invite you and other Miami contributors to a project brainstorming session via chat. The chat will take place this Saturday, July 14th, at 12 noon Eastern Time (9am Pacific). If enough people can't make it there will be an additional repeat meeting at some later time.

The online meeting will happen using IRC on the channel #wikipedia-miami -- you can use your own chat client or the use this handy link to join the chat. Please don't forget to provide your username when you log into chat.

I look forward to talking with you. Thanks! -- IlyaHaykinson 04:26, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Chatham Dockyard to RN and Medway

I have lost the plot here. Please explain where I am going wrong. I don't use Medway because it is a local authority, a major river and river basin and a term rarely used by the locals who refer to the towns individually. Chatham Dockyard is not strictly Royal Navy but the ships are. I understood the correct solution is to tag the images Chatham Dockyard then tag Chatham Dockyard Royal Navy Kent etc. I have a further 32 buildings there to photograph so I need the category. ClemRutter 19:14, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Did you take all those pictures? Cool! I do a lot of local picture taking myself over here in Florida. Actually, your best bet for those kind of pics is to upload them at WikiCommons. Categorization there is more... relaxed there than it is here. It's the same as uploading them here, and they can be referenced as though they were on Wikipedia. If you need help, though, just drop me a line. I've become rather a pro on WikiCommons. Which you can see if you go here. :) -Ebyabe 22:29, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Interstate 238 cat

Hey, I saw your removal of a cat. I have reverted it, because there is a comment right above the cats saying that the article should be in both cats because it's a special case. Hopefully that clarifies your possible confusion. (→O - RLY?) 01:47, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

No problemo!! I've been trying to salvage several groups from the great image purge of 2007. SkierRMH 01:18, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

List

Looking good, sorry it took me so long to respond. I am not sure how they feel at FL about where the images should go. It seems I saw a comment along the lines that they shouldn't be embedded in a table but I think they look good in their if the pics are decent enough at thumbnail size. I have been working on my own list but its not near where I want it yet, I like the text inclusion in the table, that's nice and something I would like to do with my own list (User:IvoShandor/Sycamore Historic District work page).

Hi and thanks for removing the red links in the categories section of Polong, Pelesit, Toyol and Hantu Raya. I guess categories shouldn't be in red, but my problem was that there is a page titled Malay ghosts which provides a list yet I couldn't link up with it. If you can help, that'd be cool.
