User talk:Scwlong

Welcome!

Hello, Scwlong, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for joining our community. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. First thing: be bold! Editors are always happy to correct or revert mistakes and discuss changes with which they disagree. Here are some links you might find useful:

And for more detailed information:

Help pages - the instruction manual, contains everything you could possibly want to know
The five pillars of Wikipedia - our principles, or how to get on with other editors
Manual of Style - how to format articles, where to place pictures, and other stylistic matters.

You can also check out the community portal, which has lots of ideas on how you can help Wikipedia.

All of this information can be daunting, but if you have a question and can't find the answer, you can always ask me on my talk page or go to Wikipedia:Where to ask a question. One last thing: please sign your name when leaving messages for others on article and user talk pages using (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. I hope you enjoy editing! --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 19:56, 12 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimania in Atlanta!

Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!

P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 08:51, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Albigensian Crusade page

Having discussed the withdrawal of GA with LuciferMorgan, I give notice that I am sitting down with the three classic original source texts (Puylaurens, Vaux-de-Cernay and de Tudèle - the last in the Livre de Poche edition as the Martin-Chabot is long out of print) to add the missing inline citations to this page. I do not intend at this point to make any textual alterations, but if comments are made which are NOT justified, be prepared to state your sources now. I'm contacting you out of courtesy as you have contributed to the page and may wish to supply your own citations. If you feel this doesn't matter to you, please ignore it.

WikiProject Germany Invitation

Hello, Scwlong! I'd like to call your attention to the WikiProject Germany and the German-speaking Wikipedians' notice board. I hope their links, sub-projects and discussions are interesting and even helpful to you. If not, I hope that new ones will be.

Sometimes hard to see...

what has really happened. But it wasn't what you thought. Xikteny was actually trying to fix vandalism (look down a page), but accidentally typed their edit summary into the text. Notice how "ve trill" looks a lot like "remove troll"? Anyway, done-undone-redone-undone again... :-) Shenme (talk) 03:00, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I see it. Thanks for the notice.Scwlong (talk) 12:24, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!

Thank you for all your edits on dashes, hyphens, and similar markings. These small edits might go unnoticed by many, but they are certainly worthwhile. --Midnightdreary (talk) 17:54, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just be careful when changing punctuation either inside or outside quotes. Unless you have access to the original source being quoted, it's best to leave as is. See WP:LQ. --Midnightdreary (talk) 18:56, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

OK Scwlong (talk) 19:02, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I was pleased to see you putting punctuation outside quotes. I think they only belong inside in passages of dialogue. Rothorpe (talk) 00:06, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

According to MOS:TITLE#Punctuation punctuation does go outside quote marks that surround titles. Scwlong

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:33, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:33, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Correctie

Ik laat even weten dat deze wijziging onjuist is. In Belgie schrijf je tussenvoegsels met een hoofdletter, dit in tegenstelling tot Nederland, waar tussenvoegsels met een kleine letter geschreven worden. 83.84.17.246 (talk) 10:53, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting difference between Netherlands Dutch and Belgian Dutch I was not aware of. Scwlong

dashes

Hi,

This was done over a year ago, but I've been finding a lot of changes you made from "Sino-" to "Sino–". Although there are a few publishers which dash prefixes, it seems to be minority usage even when dashes are used, and we've agreed not to do this on WP. So it's Chinese–American relations but Sino-American relations.

Thanks, — kwami (talk) 03:02, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing that out. I had discovered that some time ago. Scwlong (talk)

Invitation to look at edits on IQ reference chart

I see the article IQ reference chart has been tagged for expert review since October 2012. As part of a process of drafting a revision of that article in my user sandbox, I am contacting all Wikipedians who have edited that article since early 2009 for whom I can find a user talk page.

I have read all the diffs of all the edits committed to the article since the beginning of 2009 (since before I started editing Wikipedia). I see the great majority of edits over that span have been vandalism (often by I.P. editors, presumably teenagers, inserting the names of their classmates in charts of IQ classifications) and reversions of vandalism (sometimes automatically by ClueBot). Just a few editors have referred to and cited published reliable sources on the topic of IQ classification. It is dismaying to see that the number of reliable sources cited in the article has actually declined over the last few years. To help the process of finding reliable sources for articles on psychology and related topics, I have been compiling a source list on intelligence since I became a Wikipedian in 2010, and I invite you to make use of those sources as you revise articles on Wikipedia and to suggest further sources for the source on the talk pages of the source list and its subpages. Because the IQ reference chart article has been tagged as needing expert attention for more than half a year, I have opened discussion on the article's talk page about how to fix the article, and I welcome you to join the discussion. The draft I have in my user sandbox shows my current thinking about a reader-friendly, well sourced way to update and improve the article. I invite your comments and especially your suggestions of reliable sources as the updating process proceeds. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 20:54, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

large magellanic cloud page

Hi. I was reading through the Large Magellanic Cloud page, and noticed the following in the first paragraph:

"It has a mass equivalent to approximately 10 billion times the mass of our Sun (10^10 solar masses),..."

10^10 would be: 100,000,000,000, or 100 billion, not 10 billion. Since I'm not an astrophysicist and don't know what the number is supposed to be, I thought I'd bring this inconsistency up to one of the page editors. I figured even if you don't know, you might know who does... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.55.89.227 (talk) 22:04, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Accidental abbreviation?

During this edit you abbreviated the word "squad" to "sq". I suspect it wasn't something you meant to do, looking at the sort of editing you were doing, but I may be missing the reason for it. Could you check and verify your edit? --Nat Gertler (talk) 18:18, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nat, thanks for the message and pointing out the glitch. Here's what likely happened. I use WikEd for editing, and after changing hyphens to en dashes I press the "Fix Unicode character representations" button. This changes "ndash" to "–" in the edit window. It occassionally has unintended effects like changing "squad" to "sq". I will check to see if there is a place I can report this glitch. - Scwlong (talk) 20:37, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sources needed for Days of the Year pages

I see you recently accepted a pending change to November 10 that did not include a direct source.

You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages are no longer exempt from WP:V and direct sources are required for additions. For details see the edit notice on that page, the content guideline and/or the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide.

All new additions to the DOY pages without references are now being either reverted on-sight or in some cases where the patroller is especially motivated, immediately sourced. I've gone ahead and backed this edit out.

All the pages in the Days of the Year project have had pending changes protection turned on to prevent vandalism and further addition of entries without direct sources. As a pending changes patroller, it's not required but it sure would be helpful if you didn't accept additions to day of year pages where no direct source has been provided on that day of year page. The burden to provide sources for additions to these pages is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages.
