User talk:FallingGravity/Archive 2

Thank you

I've been doing all this work for so many years and you're the first person who's told me I've done good work. Usually bots and other users delete or add tags and I learn from my mistakes and keep improving. Thank you for taking time and writing the comment. I look forward to getting better :)

Hello

I noticed that you've proposed to delete the page Utente:Samuele1709, why? It's an user page about me, anyway I've deleted some lines.

@Samuele1709: "Utente" is not user namespace so currently Wikipedia thinks it's an article. Sorry these things are so confusing. FallingGravity (talk) 19:59, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dick Scobee Alive

You have deleted my addendum to astronaut Dick Scobee's website. Perhaps you find it in poor taste to talk about the recent activities of a long deceased hero, but he happens to be alive. A quick web search for Richard Scobee will reveal this fact.

Most of the Challenger crew are alive and their wikipedia pages in need of updates. For example, Michael J Smith teaches Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (http://directory.engr.wisc.edu/ie/faculty/smith_michael).

These brave men and women died for their country. It is only fair for Americans to know that death is not the end. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.22.9.147 (talk) 06:24, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the Atom Page Revert

Good catch on Atom, I was trying to revert some vandalism by another user. It was my first time trying in earnest and it looks like some still slipped through. Thank you for fixing it. TyIzaeL (talk) 13:21, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

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.

First Natural - Imperial Pacific

First natural food was a defunct company that was acquired to be a listed entity of a gaming operator, please stick to policing and editing articles within your circle of competence. http://www.forbes.com/profile/cui-lijie/ unhedge (talk) 00:20, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I believe we have the same circle of competence for this article under Wikipedia's anonymity. Please provide sources that back your claims. FallingGravity (talk) 01:52, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

Thanks for the message below, it is clear that you changed an article based on official sources and included articles which you wrongly believed to be relevant. Now that it has been highlighted to you, you claimed that the original author started an edit-war? leave the page on Imperial Pacific and let other moderators contribute. Clearly, you have made an error but refuse to acknowledge it. unhedge (talk) 16:14, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Imperial Pacific 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 article's 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. ~~FallingGravity (talk) 15:31, 9 May 2016 (UTC)~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Unhedge (talk • contribs) 15:37, 9 May 2016‎ (UTC)[reply]

Standard of rejecting missing data being forbidden to be mentioned when family claims facts not in the record

On Gonzalo P. Curiel page, you seem to eschew archives and accept second hand assurances that the archives must be wrong because the purported citizens family member or members say so. Do you not know the naturalizations are public records, but none have been found to exist for this man and yet Wikipedia is now suppressing this problem.

Ancestry.com is one source of the naturalizations in recent decades. I have found many naturalizations appear to be posted on the open Internet.

So protect from the truth your audience, but I am grievously saddened.Chief.Scribe (talk) 00:03, 8 June 2016 (UTC)Chief.Scribe (talk) 00:08, 8 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Periods & spaces

You don't need to add two spaces after a period (full stop) for two reasons. First, that was a convention that was necessary with typewriters, which monospace everything, but when Wikiupedia renders a page, it automatically adds more space after a period. Second, the two spaces are rendered exactly the same as one space, so it's a waste of your time;

This is a sentence. That was 1 space after the period.
This is a sentence. That was 2 spaces after the period.
