Your Edit to Geneva.

I inadvertently reverted an edit you made to Geneva. I have undone that and restored your edit. My apologies for any inconvenience. X MarX the Spot (talk) 21:13, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anti-copyright

I have removed your addition to Anti-copyright. You need references if you add something to an article, you also need to present the information in a neutral and factual language.--SasiSasi (talk) 23:15, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Different types of goods

- A product can be rival or nonrival, excludable or nonexcludable.

- - Nonrival

- Low High

- High Commons good | Public good

- (fish in the ocean) | (national defense)

- Nonexcludable -------------------------------------------------

- Low Private good | Collective good

- (wheat) | (pay-per view TV)

- - “Principles of economics by Ben Bernanke, the chairman of the American national bank, third international edition, page 449.”

- - - If a good is rival it means that it is consumed when used, if it is excludable it means that it is possible to exclude non payers.

- - Information have traditionally been a Collective good. Stored in books or LP’s it can only be used by a few people at the time. As such it can be brought and sold. At the time copyright laws where made, that was the only way information could be stored and distributed. It then seemed fair, that the ones that created the information, had the right to the information, as copying was difficult and time consuming.

- - However, the internet changed that. It made information public. The same movie can be seen by an infinitive number of people with no cost to anyone. Like streetlight or national defense, it is now a joy for all, and not just the paying elite.

- These types of goods have no variable cost; they only cost resources in the creating process.

- While it is only natural that the creators are paid for there trouble, it can never be fair, that a variable price is charged for a product that have none.

- - In times (soon to be) past, these that have created songs, movies and the like, have been heavenly enriched for a product that in itself have only fixed. After breakeven is reached, these people can be made rich, while doing absolutely nothing.

- - Can that ever, morally be defended?

- - This is the nature and moral foundation of file-sharing, by giving to the people, what the people rightfully owns.

Rights

I have removed your addition to rights. You need references if you add something to an article, or at least a justification and explanation.Piratejosh85 (talk) 16:37, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More on rights

I think I heard you say, "It should be clear that the term, right always refer to something universal, as opposed to privilege... It was meant to show others that the article needed a rearranging, and a proper distinction between right and privilege, not merely to be removed and ignored."

It was indeed noted. I made changes to the article. But it is not clear that there is anything different between a right and a privlige. Nor is it clear that a right refers to something universal. Check what I wrote and if there is something that needs changing, do it. Best regards, Josh Piratejosh85 (talk) 23:28, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sannin

Please stop adding a Sannin section to World of Naruto. It is not a rank, as only three characters have that designation. More to the point, "Sannin" is already explained in those three characters' respective articles. ~Snapper T o 18:37, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

December 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia.

Disambiguation link notification for September 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Church of Denmark, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Link (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.

Concerning your edits to Wiseman...

...it would perhaps be better to first write an article here, in the English-language Wikipedia, about the subject you linked to in the Danish-language Wikipedia. If we have that, then you could link to it from the Wiseman page. I have removed your edits from Wiseman, as this disambiguation page is not meant for what you wrote. Cheers and happy editing.

Nomination of Day octalogy for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Day octalogy is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. - Mr X 02:51, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Safe space reversion

Dude, stop reverting the safe space article. The wording in the version you keep putting up is massively biased against it. If you have a more neutral phrasing that improves the article you're of course welcome to do so, but 'only speech that conforms to their ideology is allowed' is about as loaded and view-pushing as you can get. --Keiyakins (talk) 04:57, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, now that I think about it, there used to be a criticisms section, but it was removed because it was poorly written. That seems to be where you're trying to go, perhaps you could try to write a neutral summary of criticisms, ideally including citations and maybe some of the counter arguments? That'd be a good way to improve the article! --Keiyakins (talk) 05:08, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits to Progressivism

Hello there, I've noticed that you've made significant additions to the Progressivism article recently. If you could add citations for the content you are adding, that would be great. Alcherin (talk) 13:44, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
