British Royal Family vandalism
[edit]Hi! I think you have mistakenly reverted an anonymous user's removal of a bunch of trivia here. If you take a look at the page history, you will see that I too removed it several times and provided an explanation each time, only to be blindly reverted by Guilherme Styles without any explanation. I've asked for help at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject British Royalty, but that appears to be futile. Surtsicna (talk) 23:34, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
- Ah. I now see that the information was indeed unreferenced, and there was probably a plausible excuse for the IP removing it. King Jakob C2 00:04, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
Some section break
[edit]Hi; regarding the Chris Hadfield Honourary Diploma (yes, we spell it Honourary), here is a source: http://www.nscc.ca/explorenscc/convocation/honorary_diplomas.asp ... I work for NSCC and am very much involved with this HD. Could I get you to phrase it as "In June 2013, Hadfield was presented with an Honourary Diploma in Geographic Sciences from Nova Scotia Community College - Centre of Geographic Sciences". Thanks - David.MacLean@nscc.ca — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.177.81.10 (talk) 12:32, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
- Great, you can put it back into the article (this time adding the source you gave) and someone will probably accept it. King Jakob C2 12:50, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
I don't want the fire triangle, please
[edit]It is very cryptic and crufty. Just numbers that 99% of people don't understand. (Even me, I have to look it up).
Text is a nice add, but please keep the triangles away.
Trust me...
;-)
TCO (talk) 18:14, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
- OK, but you do realize that the "crufty" numbers are wikilinked to an explanation, right? King Jakob C2 12:50, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for calling my attention to these two articles, which I gave a rather hasty evaluation recently. I added some more WikiProject templates to these two articles, and the related Nescopeck Creek article, and I upgraded them to C quality. I also added a few Wiki-links. I would suggest maps as the principal way to improve these articles. Ask for help from the Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Map workshop people. Once you have done what you can as improvements, consider a peer review before you seek a higher quality rating. The Jeddo Tunnel has co-ordinates, but it is unclear where the tunnel is at from looking at a Google map. Look at the Johnstown Inclined Plane article and its long history to be upgraded as an example of what is needed for higher quality ratings.--DThomsen8 (talk) 14:31, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Non-admin closure to AfDs
[edit]I normally don't do this, but I don't think that you should have closed the AfD for Dianne de Las Casas. While I did withdraw the AfD, the consensus for the article's inclusion was far from a "keep" type conclusion. It was just muddled enough to where I think it probably could have gone on for another week. Another admin had actually overrode my withdraw and was keeping the AfD open, so I really don't think it was appropriate for a non-admin to close this particular deletion discussion. The only time a non-admin should close a discussion is if it's a non-controversial close and this really wasn't one. There was no clear consensus to either keep or delete the article and people were still talking over the sources. The only reason I withdrew it was because I was afraid of how it'd affect other users and since another editor said that the worry was invalid and overrode the withdraw, this really isn't a clean close that a non-admin user should do. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:44, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
- I would have been inclined to relist it and then failing a further clear consensus, close it as 'No consensus' which defaults to 'keep'. As it has been kept anyway, I don't see any need for further discussion except for the proviso that I think User talk:King jakob c 2 needs more experience with Wikipedia policies and procedures before attempting NAC, and then strictly only ones that are clear, uncontroversial 'keeps'. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:45, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
- So you're saying I shouldn't close AFDs until I'm an admin? King Jakob C2 01:31, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
Comment by 64.236.138.2
[edit]Hello King Jakob,
I just want to inform you that I wasn't "vandalizing". Richard Robinson, the investment banker from Lancaster, PA is known in the industry as "Cock" Robinson. It's his nickname. So please, don't threaten to ban me from editing Wikipedia when I wasn't doing anything disruptive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.236.138.2 (talk) 00:17, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

N-increasing AfD
[edit]Hi. You recently started an AfD on N-increasing, describing the article as a "random math tutorial" and a howto. While I agree that the article shouldn't be there, it is very definitely neither of those things: it's a straight dictionary definition. If you can't tell the difference between a mathematical definition and a tutorial, you probably shouldn't be nominating mathematics articles for deletion. Dricherby (talk) 10:04, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
- My apologies. When I first noticed it, I thought it was showing some kind of step-by-step demonstration proof for something. King Jakob C2 11:38, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

DYK for Mahoning Creek (Susquehanna River)

Emperor Kōmei vandalism
[edit]Hi! I noticed you have mistakenly accepted an IP user's subtle vandalism attempt on Emperor Kōmei. If you take a look at the page history (and talk page), you'll see this is the same vandalism that was being applied over and over to the page, leading to it receiving Pending Changes Protection. The vandal from a few months ago is a persistent one, so this may not be the last attempt that unregistered user tries to push the "edit" again onto the page. Or onto another Japanese emperor's page, for that matter as I've noticed that after that page got protected, the user went on to find other Japanese Emperor pages to vandalize.

Iran page modification
[edit]Salutations and greetings! Looking the edit history of Iran, I have observed that you approved an edit which removed the Supreme Leader from the list of political leaders, on a claim that he is a spiritual, not a political, leader. This is, ultimately, false, per the pages Supreme Leader of Iran and Constitution of Iran, which clearly specify that the Supreme Leader is Iran's head of state and acts accordingly.

- (and I'm serious: Tm has very much less to talk about than Yb. Yb has many exceptional properties, Tm does not. Read the Yb article for why.) Double sharp (talk) 10:02, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
- I know. A few months ago I tried to expand the article, but I didn't really get that far. I have a book that describes thulium as "the least significant element there is" Anyway, I passed the GA. King Jakob C2 11:32, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
Belgium national football team
[edit]This is no instance of vandalism. I deleted an entire section because speculation of the ethnicity of certain players is irrelevant. Also the tone of the section is racially charged in my opinion. I also edited the talk section to clarify my point. Please revert my edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.49.114.14 (talk) 14:17, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
- I understand the view of this (unidentified) Wikipedian, but I regret that no debate was held at the talk page (or modification of the section was done) before the section got removed. My point of view is written down at the talk page of the Belgium national football team. I don't think this section valorizes people with foreign descent. True, you can debate about the relevance of this section, but you can also debate about the need to write down anything that is more than football results (then I mean "charity support", "rivalries", "popular culture", and so on). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kareldorado (talk • contribs) 15:39, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
- Deleting a referenced section requires discussion, even if it is not vandalism. Let's see how the discussion on the talk page turns out. King Jakob C2 15:55, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 2
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Arthur Getagazhev, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ingush (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
