Massive cull of the Parapsychology article
[edit]I went ahead and made good on your March 2006 threat to perform a "massive cull" of unsourced claims found at Parapsychology. The article has been significantly thinned out! Simões (talk/contribs) 08:53, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for your comment of the FAC entry. Since then, I have expanded the article to gain comprehensiveness as you mentioned. The article has 3 new sections: Eruptive History, Ecosystem and Monitoring. Could you please take a look again and give your further comments on the FAC entry? Thanks. — Indon (reply) — 10:30, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
MacGuffin - The Last Dragon
[edit]Hi, you deleted the information I added to the MacGuffin article about The Last Dragon because you couldn't find a cite. What kind of cite are you looking for? Like a source or something? I'll be happy to track one down and add it. Thanks! Jyroberson 23:09, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
You commented on this article earlier this month voting against its promotion to FAC status because of the lack of inline citations. There are significantly more inline citations - at least one per paragraph and it has its own reference section. Unfortunately after this length of time the article only has one recorded vote and I'd be very greatful if you could take a look at it again and give your opinion. Thanks Globaltraveller 19:39, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks!
[edit]I just noticed that you'd placed Chicago for FA status after I'd had some difficulties with the process. I was a little new at the time and I really appreciate you helping out, even though the run was clearly the wrong move. Thanks very much for the support! Mrmaroon25 05:01, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
MOS (writing about fiction)
[edit]In the past you have participated in discussion about this guideline, or voted in it's acceptence. There is currently a discussion about a partial rewrite of this guideline. The discussion could benefit from some more input. Thank you for your contributions. TheDJ (talk • contribs • WikiProject Television) 16:06, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Matrix Scheme
[edit]Fieari, Not sure if you can help, but the Matrix Scheme article is continuously being reverted by Cybertrax. There is disagreement over valid external links, and since his link has been deemed unworthy he feels that the Matrixwatch link is not valid either and is continualy deleting it. Any help would be great, or perhaps a nudge in the right direction. Arzel 14:18, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Revived discussion concerning fair use in portals
[edit]I am contacting everyone who participated in the discussion that became inactive in December. Due to the length of the previous discussion, I have proposed a new amendment and you like you to weigh in so that we may actually have a consensus on this matter as it doesn't seem there exists one either way. -ΖαππερΝαππερ BabelAlexandria
Mathematics CotW
[edit]Hey Fieari, I am writing you to let you know that the Mathematics Collaboration of the week(soon to "of the month") is getting an overhaul of sorts and I would encourage you to participate in whatever way you can, i.e. nominate an article, contribute to an article, or sign up to be part of the project. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks--Cronholm144 21:23, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
nice work
[edit]Just looked at some of your contributions. They look good. Do you mind if I nominate you to be an admin?--Ted-m 14:20, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I'd probably get nailed with the people insisting on "1FA" for admins, since I've only ever reviewed, never actually put one through, but I would not mind being an admin. Fieari 00:04, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Whitstable FAC
[edit]Improvements have been made to the prose of the Whitstable article, as you suggested in its FAC. Would you mind having another look at the article sometime. Thanks. Epbr123 23:07, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
- Further improvements have been made. Epbr123 20:39, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Unspecified source for Image:Tetra.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Tetra.jpg. 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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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:Fair use, 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 images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 07:28, 6 August 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ejfetters 07:28, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
By any chance, are you still using Ryukyu Kempo\Rewrite? It appears to be a neglected draft that hasn't been edited for two months. If not, please tag it with {{db-author}} for a deletion or move it to your userspace, which is intended to hold such drafts. Thanks. MER-C 13:19, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Ryukyu Kempo\Rewrite
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Ryukyu Kempo\Rewrite, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of the page.

Main page request for featured article
[edit]I am trying to nominate a featured article for the main page but the limit has been lowered to five at a time and I might miss a time when there are only four. Could you check it occasionally and nominate Yes Minister for January 28th? The date is the 20th anniversary of the final episode being aired --Ted-m (talk) 05:10, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
German speaking Wikipedians
[edit]Do you know anyone on wikipedia that speaks German? I am looking for some people to proofread my translation of Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit and other Bach Cantata pages I will be creating. --Ted-m (talk) 01:51, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Tetra.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Tetra.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. JaGatalk 01:36, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

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.

Jacob Wohl deletion
[edit]Hey there,
This is my first time 'talk'ing about a person's wiki page but figure I would add my 2 cents. The kid is a predicate fraud, with zero real experience, and a true danger to potential investors who do not do thorough due diligence. The kid at 17 claimed to have 10 years trading experience and 5 years coding experience. Does he think everyone is stupid? It's insulting. As an individual working in the asset management and financial services industry, I can confidently say he has zero clue what he is doing.
I know that to be successful in the hedge fund world / trading arena, like any other skilled trade or profession, you get what you put in. When I first heard of a "teen prodigy", I was incredibly skeptical. Being privy to information that's not publicly available, I can confirm young Jacob Wohl since he "rose to popularity" has done nothing but light money on fire. I can also offer as fact that Jacob Wohl and his entities are under inquiry from the SRO's that govern the industry; specifically the NFA and the SEC. For example, Jacob has purchased & promoted the catchy domain riskfreereturns.com that forwards visitors to his new company's website. If you manage any class of assets, you cannot claim anything to 'risk free'.
I certainly agree to question the sources that have reported on him. Zero Hedge at times is completely slanted and off the rocker, but they were accurate in this instance. ValueWalk is pretty reputable, and the author of the pieces about the young egomaniac Mark Melin, had an illustrious career in the industry and is an adjunct professor in the finance department at Northwestern. M.Melin is well liked and well respected (and I do not have any personal or professional relation to Mr. Melin in any capacity). I encourage you to check out the two follow up pieces Melin wrote on Jacob:
http://www.valuewalk.com/2016/04/jacob-wohl-hedge-fund-2/ http://www.valuewalk.com/2016/05/jacob-wohl-legal-threats/
What may have began as an elaborate charade to have a kid stand out in college applications has become a true threat to potential investors. If you'd want to know any more of what I know, please feel free to reach out to me directly at gilfoylesaidso at gmail dot com. (FYI, that email is one I regularly use, I use an alias for the endless registrations so I have no problem putting it out there in the open). Hope his page gets removed.
P.S., blatantly evident the kid wrote it himself- the gaul. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:E88A:7500:10F5:EAFA:69B1:7A89 (talk) 20:35, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
