Nightmarchers

Thanks for adding material to Nightmarchers.[1] Can you give me more information about the second paragraph? Is it sourced to Carrol's *Hawaii's Best Spooky Tales? Please join me on Talk:Nightmarchers when you have time. Thanks. Viriditas (talk) 08:43, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi Viriditas, thank you for your suggestions. I noticed on your page you are a member of WikiProject Hawaii. Being from Hawaii, I might like to join. About the second paragraph to Nightmarchers, what is it you want to know? Thanks again. Aloha.

I will leave you an invitation to the project and I'll start a discussion on the article talk page about Nightmarchers. Viriditas (talk) 22:29, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Russian Revolution

Although having triumphed in the Russian Civil War, when they took charge of the government they had new problems. The Bolshevik party was composed mostly of laborers, not many members had much leadership expirience. The party was not the most unified, although it did encourage discipline and unity. Within the pary there was opposition by both individuals and groups. This really frustrated Lenin, so he changed that situation. The Bolsheviks were also faced with criticism and opposition, and the Bolsheviks showed no tolerance at all. The Bolsheviks believed very stongly on the evil of class. They favored the classes that used to be mistreated and were very much the enimies of the former elite class. Because of their dislike of class, the bolsheviks eliminated it and created the opposite of class in society.

1. Incorrect article, see "October Revolution"
2. They didn't take charge of government, the existing Soviets assumed supremacy
3. The Soviets weren't exclusively Bolshevik, outside of Leningrad they were all party, claiming the Soviets were Bolshevik in 1917 is a gross distortion
4. The Bolshevik party was most certainly not composed of a majority of laborers, see Lenin on this
5. "Not many members had much leadership expirience[sic]"
   1. Relevance of "leadership experience" as a general catagory
   2. Really indistinct as a term, do you mean "experience controlling bourgeois governments"
6. Opposition within the party, you're really trying to deal with it in a single sentence?
7. "This really frustrated Lenin" non encyclopedic. Additionally, Lenin is usually depicted as riding intraparty factional tensions, not as some genius par excellence.
8. "so he changed the situation" lack of specified noun.
9. The Bolsheviks were faced with criticism and opposition, both in the form of a White reaction, and a Third Revolution. Tolerance was used as one in a number of tactics. See Victor Serge.
10. Your stuff on class is patent nonsense.

The first point is the most telling, though the constant errors of fact and interpretation make for the patency of the nonsense. Most of your sentences, by having non-standard interpretations, would require detailed citation. If you want to pursue this, I suggest the October Revolution article.Fifelfoo (talk) 01:32, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

The Glendy Burke (song)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of The Glendy Burke (song), and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.musicanet.org/robokopp/usa/glendybu.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Glendy Burke (song)

A tag has been placed on The Glendy Burke (song) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
