Sports

I love basketball and football. I've live in Houston all my life, so my teams aren't exactly the best with the exception of the Astros, who I believe could have done much better in the World Series. I'm a big fan of the Rockets and Texans nevertheless. I also play basketball for my JV team at school (I'm a sophomore at a Christian high school). Despite my being a sports fanatic, I still devote a lot of time to my school work. I am a straight A student, and I'm hoping to attend Rice here in Houston. By the way, what university/college are you attending? Ryanjrr 06:08, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Arabic

Yea I do and I thought you did too because of your work on the Nahr al-kalb (arabic for the river of the dog). Anyways thanks for the welcome. Ryanjrr 05:20, 3 February 2006 (UTC) P.S. Do you watch any sports?

Ryanjrr

I wanted to know if you spoke arabic. if you do or don't could you talk to me. i'm user Ryanjrr and i just joined wikipedia. i seem to have taken a liking for it.

Move of Naquadah to Naqahdah

While editing a Stargate-related stub, I noticed that you recently renamed Naquadah as Naqahdah. I think the original spelling is the preferable one, for a couple of reasons. First, a Google search indicates an 11:1 ratio in its favor. Second, whenever I have seen an episode of SG-1, the closed-captioning function has been enabled, and the spelling is always, I am quite sure, "Naquadah". If there's some information I'm missing, or a consensus on renaming the page that I missed, please let me know. NatusRoma 05:21, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

• Since there is no talk page for either article, I do not believe that such an obvious move would be controversial. I am quite sure that there is no disagreement that "Naqahdah" is the correct spelling as it is the one used in the article. I was aiming for consistency. AFAIK, no consensus (WP:RM) is required for moving a page, and there was no redirect page from Naqahdah to Naquadah. FYI, "Naqahdah" is seen on screen in Episode 201. — Flag of Scarborough, ON, Canada  UTSRelativity (Talk)  23:34, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

• • It looks like your move was warranted. It appears that for the majority of the time that this article has been in existence, people have thought that the correct spelling was "Naquadah" (see here and elsewhere in the history). The episode you referred to definitely contains the spelling "Naqahdah" (based on this site), so thanks for letting me know about it. NatusRoma 00:11, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

Identity (mathematics)

Hello. In using TeX in math articles, please note that there's no need for the spacing backslash inside the parentheses in

$(\cos \theta )^{2}+(\sin \theta )^{2}=1\,$

since TeX is sophisticated. However, you'll notice that I put a seemingly epiphenomenal spacing command after the 1. The reason for that is that some Wikipedians, using some browsers, will fail to get the TeX rendered as TeX if that's left out. TeX on Wikipedia behaves in some ways differently from the usual way of using TeX.

Also, notice the difference between these:

$(\cos \theta )^{2}+(\sin \theta )^{2}=1\,$

$(\cos \theta )^{2}+(\sin \theta )^{2}=1\,$

The latter is indented via a preceeding colon. That is standard on Wikipedia when TeX is "displayed" (as opposed to inline). Michael Hardy 21:55, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up, especially about the spacing items. I'll keep what you said in mind. NatusRoma 21:59, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

Also, notice

$x\in A\,$

$x\epsilon A\,$

$x\varepsilon A\,$

Maybe this choice is a matter of taste. Michael Hardy 22:01, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

Oh: I notice that with the first of these three choices, there's some spacing automatically provided. That's part of what I meant when I said TeX is sophisticated. With the other two options, the epsilon is not really intended to serve normally as a binary relation, so the built-in sophistication is not at work. Michael Hardy 22:03, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

Before you go deleting everything without regard, you might want to check the facts on some occations. Not all you deleted was a cut and paste, and what was I ask Lloyd Arnold at the Rocket Center facility if it was o.k. Next time, put up the warning and give a person a chance to explain, before you delete. We are supporting Wikipedia, but I will soon stop if this BS continues. --71Demon 03:25, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• I think the term Forum Nazi needs to be defined, but I do thank you for you apology. I'm a member of the Mineral County Planning Commission, and have been working on items of which pertain to Mineral County. I do mean Forum Nazi only as an over zelous moderator, nothing more. It is easy to do, I moderate several forums and I have caught myself being a Forum Nazi, sometimes it is easier to delete everything, and not just the part that was believed to be in offense. I just reworded it. For the future, I would suggest you only put up the warning as the response, or if that is not good enough only remove the offending matter and not the entire entry. I hate typing, but think Wiki is worth it. --71Demon 03:41, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

On2

I am a future employee of On2 but probably don't have permission for On2's content. Thanks for pointing out this and could you please remove the copyright page and the temp page. I'll wait until I become an employee, with copyright permission, before I start updating wiki. Regards. -- Brux 20:53 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hey NatusRoma, I have to ask why you caught the On2 violation but didn't catch the violations for Hamptons (Magazine) - which I removed. As well, how I started was updating the articles for Anne Bancroft, Mel Brooks and Max Brooks. Except, I was lifting content from all over the place and adding it to wiki. When I went to remove the content (especially the stuff I got from the about.com site on Brooks/Bancroft marriage) I got hit by a article reversal - but the content was in copyright violation. I added a book for Oz Garcia, which got speed-deleted. I added a book for Max Brooks which was left up - I removed it. I have been working on wiki pretty steady for 4 days and only today did anyone notice my mistakes. Where are your mentors of new users? I think wiki is great but the rules are inconsistent and bendable. -- Brux 00:53 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

You make it sound like I did something bad and then went and fixed it by saying that other people never caught it. How does it happen that you picked up On2 when Hampton's wasn't picked up? I see the inconsistency from my own cases where I have added copyright material, and it was allowed to stay. Then I went back and deleted the content in violation and the deletion got reversed. But no matter. It's a great learning experience. Brux 05:28, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I have a question. How did you stumble upon me modifying On2 since I was right in the middle of the edits? Is media-compression an interest? Do you/did you work for On2? Or do you use their products? Brux 16:31, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

COTW Project

You voted for High Middle Ages, this week's Collaboration of the week. Please come and help it become a featured-standard article.

Mean Girls

Your comment is technically right that the film does not mention ETHS. The setting was definitely Evanston, Illinois but they chose to call the high school "North Shore High School" in the movie. Since ETHS is the only high school in Evanston, I think the movie can still be mentioned but I will change the wording.

I haven't seen the movie and I can't imagine why Tina Fey decided to set the movie in Evanston rather than Wilmette or somewhere else on the North Shore. However, (1) Evanston residents don't attend New Trier and (2) North Shore Country Day is a small private school (which is much different than the one in the film, as explained to me by my high school aged daughter). Its all fictional in any event, so I would let it slide at this point (it wasn't my addition to the article, by the way).

Art header

Hello,

Even though the COTW High Middle Ages is a work in progress, there should not be a heading with no content underneath it, which is why I removed it when I made my larger-scale edit. If you want someone to add a section about art you should make a comment in the discussion page. I am not going to re-revert your edit but I would hope you would consider reverting it yourself. Thanks so much. Jacob 00:58, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yemeni Music

Hi N.Roma. I need some help placing my page on Yemeni Music. Tuf-Kat wants me to prove its not a copyright how do i do that? If someone writes something then is asked to prove its not copyrighted that doesnt make sence...actually he should prove its copyrighted. Second...on his page he curses so much saying M.F. word and others...isnt that really a bad representation of an administrater of Wikipedia? I'll check this page here another time to read your reply. Thanks.

..you can see some of his cursings on this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:TUF-KAT

Thanks for leaving me a message. You're right that the burden of proof ought to fall on the person who asserts the existence of a copyright violation. In the cases of some of the past edits that you made to Music of Yemen and to the pages you created at Yemeni Music and Yemenite Music, the content was identical to the Blackwell article. In some other cases, like your more recent changes to Music of Yemen and to the pages you created at Musicology of Yemen and Yamaani Music, there was no direct quotation. However, I believe that the material closely paraphrases Blackwell's article. Let me provide some examples:

• You wrote: "By the 1950z the qumbus lay overtaken by the oud, the papaya-shaped lute used in most of Arabia". Blackwell wrote: "From the 1930s the qambus gradually gave way to the 'ud, the pear-shaped lute common to much of the Arab world"

• You wrote: "The Zaraneq tribe of the Tehama are famous for playing the shubaba & qasaba flutes." Blackwell wrote: "Flutes, called shubbabah or qassabah are made either of metal or reed and are played either singly or in flute ensembles...[T]he Zaraniq tribe of the Tihamah are particularly renowned for their flute music."

• You wrote: "Being that Yemen is between the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea it has an effect all over the region. Yemeni music influences most of the Arabian music, especially of the Gulf." Blackwell wrote: "Given the country’s geographical position, poised 'twixt the Red Sea and Indian Ocean, and its great cultural continuum, it is not perhaps surprising that the Yemen’s music traditions are immensely rich and varied. For millenia they have been the dominant influence in the music of the Arabian peninsula".

That article appears to be a very good source for information on the music of Yemen. Short quotations or paraphrases are perfectly appropriate, provided that you cite the article, but lengthy paraphrases constitute plagiarism. I would suggest finding other sources of information on the music of Yemen, and then using information from those as well as from Blackwell's article to improve the existing Music of Yemen page.

To answer your second question, while I do not agree with TUF-KAT's choice of words on his user page, Wikipedia is not censored. Moreover, it is TUF-KAT's user page, so he can generally do what he wants with it. See Wikipedia:User page for guidelines on user pages.NatusRoma 00:53, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Ernst Witt

Thank you for improving the Ernst Witt stub. Just one thing: you replaced "habilitated" with "lived". What I actually mean with "habilitate" (German: "sich habilitieren") is the process of becoming a "Privatdozent", a function which is probably similar to a "lecturer" in the UK. Becoming a "Privatdozent" is (was?) a necessary prerequisite for applying for a professorship in Germany. If "habilitate" is wrong, what is the correct term? -- 134.155.89.64 08:38, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Congress Categories

Hi. You voted for the long version of category names on WP:CFD page. Could you explain why you prefer the longer name? I think we need to wind up with two categories: Reps from (history and current) and Current House for all states. (see Tom DeLay). I've been trying to sort this out with discussio, but not very sucessfully, on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. Congress. My general urge is the shorter the better on category names, but I'm trying to understand the arguments on both sides. Lou I 21:22, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. I agree that, if you consider the title in the abstract, that [[Category:Memmbers of the U.S. House of Representatives]] from foo carries a clearer meaning than [[Category:U.S. Representatives from foo]], but not necessarily when considered in context. The usual placement of the tag is at the bottom of an article that already identifies the person as a congressman. The other way might be coming from another (parent) category such as [[Category:foo]], in which case it's right next to [[U.S. Senators from foo]]. Lou I 14:33, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

P.S. It is a shame that gender based political correctnesss has robbed us of the generic use of masculine to mean both. Then we could use [[Category:U.S. Congressmen from foo]]. I remember when everyone was quite comfortable with an addressing someone as 'Madam Chairman'. sigh...:-) Lou I

Categories of Congresspersons by state

Sorry for the delayed reply, but I've been wrestling with ideas for improvements along the line you segguested about using the delegation template. I think we ultimately can use a short article space entry describuibg the current delegation, and including the template. Then the delegations page can link to it, or even include it. I'll generally try to update the Congress project or itsd talk page as I proceed. Lou I 22:35, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

My reasoning was in two parts. A number of repeater sites using extracted Wikipedia don't pick up the template namespace, so an article would fill tah gap. Also, the template should be current. The article could also list changes during this congress (deaths, special elections, appointments) and give a quick recap of delegation strngth by party and maybe a bit of discussion for any controversies, etc. My ultimate goal here is to figure out how to replace the masive list of members currently in the Congress article with some kind of summary, link to offpage, or some other, yet unknown, option.

Whobot edits

crossposted from User talk:Whobot

This is not a huge deal, but in at least one instance (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=U.S._Cellular&diff=prev&oldid=24049529), Whobot has moved a stub tag under the list of categories. I may be mistaken, but I had thought that we did things the other way around. NatusRoma 04:05, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Yea, the idea is that when showing the categories, the stub cat is listed after the encyclopedic cats. It is really personal preference, but this is the way that I do it along with Pearle (the bot Whobot is cloned from). ∞Who?¿? 04:13, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Speedy vs Copyvio

You seem to be the person who filed the copyright violation against the TDWG article. The IP number that created that page left a message on Talk:TDWG in which they asserted they are a director of the TWDG organization responsible for copyright. That was over two weeks ago. I think someone should get back to them. Since you filed the copyright violation, maybe that should be you?

Someone filed a copyright violation against a page I worked on -- one I believe is entirely bogus. I would like to clear the backlog, and I am very disheartened to see how long the backlog is. -- Geo Swan 10:42, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

edited temp article

Hiya, don't know how you came to my temp page, I have no problem with the edit you made other than that it was rather futile. The temp page is where I edit works in process so as not to clutter the actual article's history. However I tend to keep stuff on the temp page long after it's been copied into the real article. In the case in question, the article Yehoshua Bar-Hillel is already up and running, edits should be made there, not on my temp page. Cheers. --Woggly 07:25, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Redundant categories

My thinking regarding categories is that they are not strictly hierarchical (sp?). But if they were for bios there would at least need to be ones reflecting 1) when they lived, 2) where they lived, and 3) what they did. The last category gets so big it gets qualified by all sorts of things, often location. Such a qualification of the "what" should not require the deletion of the "where," because the articles in the "where" category will be incomplete as a result. While I admit there is some redundancy, with "People of Pennsylvania" when they are also "Pennsylvania politicians" that redundacy is OK because it prevents a serious omission. I believe this follows Wikipedia standards. I would like to restore a couple you have removed.

Hmm... it might be a browser problem? I'm just using regular IE but I don't have access to any other browsers to check. Or it might be a problem with themes, it should appear as a small blue box with white text and white underline, so I imagine its possible it could be screwed up if you're using a more colorful theme than I am.

The best person for Jonson is going to be The Singing Badger, who is an honest to goodness renaissance person. I'm more later 17th century and into the 18th. I have read Every Man In His Humour, but when I read it I was looking very specifically for the first usage of the word "parody" in English (which occurs there) and trying to detect whether Jonson regarded it as a new word (he didn't) and then making an argument from there (which I did, in another medium).

Hi, yes I did use the essay which I wrote to start it, but I edited it to include the sections I thought could be used in an encyclopedia.

No they dont own the copyright. I own the copyright to it. I did not sign over my copyright rights to them when I submitted the essay. Their copyright notice is probably incorrect - it should say that the essay remains copyright of the writer Cfitzart 01:00, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

I've had a look 'round, and I can find no evidence that there was originally an article on the Christian band Allies.

Charlie Dent

Natus Roma,

The deletion on the Charlie Dent was not unexplained. On the talk page, some issues were raised as to the truth of the information. I think some is accurate and some is not.

• After looking at the talk page, it looks like you're right that some of the Congressional staffer's changes were warranted. However, given the bad-faith edits that many people have made using the IP address 143.231.249.141, I can no longer assume that changes made from that IP address to articles on members of Congress constitute good-faith contributions, especially when they take the form of deleting text without an edit summary. I didn't see User:TheKMan's comments before I reverted the IP's changes.

It looks like you've done a good job keeping what belonged and removing what didn't, so please keep up the good work. By the way, please remember to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (Montco 04:05, 8 March 2006 (UTC)), which will leave your username and the date and time.

Removal of blue links vs. pruning

I wanted to thank you for your pruning of the Eastons lists, but wanted to ask you if you checked each of the links to make sure that the blue link covered the same material covered by Eastons. Separating red and blue links is fairly trivial, but we need people to make sure that the the same material is covered. I routinely find that 1 out of 20 blue links does not provide adequate coverage. You may want to check the project guidelines for further clarification. --Reflex Reaction (talk)• 16:30, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

In actual fact you were not disambiguating a link (there was no link to disambiguate); you were in fact adding a link which was not there before. This is an important distinction since in one the one case you would just be making the link work more easily, but in the other case you are changing the content of the page (which some might think useful, and others not).

I take back my entire comment. I thought that there wasn't any link at all on the Greek word (there wasn't until recently). I see now that what you did was actually a disambiguation. I add that edit summary to other pages frequently myself. Sorry for the confusion. Noel S McFerran 13:45, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
