International Space Station

[edit]

Please stop making massive changes to the article including its structure without discussing them on the talk page first. You have been reverted. -MBK004 00:24, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please make your suggestions and proposed edits known here: Talk:International_Space_Station#Overview_section, you are fairly new, so you didn't know about the consensus model that we go by here, but now you do. -MBK004 00:31, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You were told to discuss changes first. Going ahead and making them again like you just did is blatantly disruptive and not looked highly-upon. Please cease this behavior immediately or face sanctions that could include revocation of your ability to edit. -MBK004 00:34, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Recieved the previous message after the fact. You seem unkind. WhatisFeelings? (talk) 00:36, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello WhatisFeelings?,

Regarding your edits to control engineering, the usual way to link to an article that is already in wikipedia is by its name, and the syntax is [[List_of_electrical_engineering_topics#Control_engineering|List of control engineering topics]] Like so:List of control engineering topics.

Breaking it down, the first is the article, after the #(octothorpe) is the optional section target and after the | (pipe symbol) is the name you wish to use.

The method you have used, which uses a single square brace, is the method that is typically reserved for linking to external resources. You will be able to find more syntax information at WP:SYNTAX, if you need. Thanks User A1 (talk) 10:41, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Addendum: I edited the link in control engineering, but stuck this here to let you know, for future ref. Cheers User A1 (talk) 10:44, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

medcab/cases

[edit]

Hey, I got your edit summary. IIRC, medcabbot lists them by request date both in the new and open sections. Had to revert because medcabbot sometimes goes on the fritz if someone edits that area. Xavexgoem (talk) 03:02, 11 March 2009 (UTC) It also takes about 10 minutes for medcabbot to update. I'll keep an eye on it, though, since the new templates may be wonky[reply]

Mediation case

[edit]

Hi there. I think I'm the named party in this case, so I commented here. If this is actually about something else, please delete my comment. All the best Tim Vickers (talk) 16:24, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since I don't think there is any real basis for this "dispute" would you mind if I didn't respond any further in this mediation case? I'm willing to continue if you think that is justified, but I honestly can't see that this complaint as any foundation whatsoever. Tim Vickers (talk) 17:24, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've now withdrawn from this mediation. I can't help feeling however that this might have been cleared up much more quickly if I'd been informed sooner. Therefore please don't hesitate to get in touch if there is anything I can help you with in the future. All the best Tim Vickers (talk) 19:15, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure why the case opener did not inform you, or the other relevant parties invloved.WhatisFeelings? (talk) 19:24, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

[edit]

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 19:36, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

About your edits to the 'What is a featured article' criteria page, I responded to your question. I wanted to make sure you saw it. Raul654 (talk) 07:10, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Zinc" featured article candidate

[edit]

Thanks for your review. However this comment is unhelpful. You "must suffer" the article? Mav and his colleagues are working hard to improve the quality of the article based on the reviewers' comments. Axl ¤ [Talk] 17:21, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit comments (Re Artificial intelligence)

[edit]

Edit comments really do help us to understand what you're doing and why. It's good to make a short argument why you think your edit was an improvement and give us a sense of what exactly your goal is. Please comment your edits. Thanks. ---- CharlesGillingham (talk) 07:39, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

hi Charles, if you have any specific questions, please ask me, and i'll reply when i can. Thanks. WhatisFeelings? (talk) 20:55, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the situation in general is this. I'm the content editor (i.e., I own the books used as references, I used to work in the field, etc.). You are the copy editor. You've changed something, but, to me, the new version doesn't quite seem correct or perhaps misses the point somehow. Now, first of all, you should know that I realize that this is probably my fault — my original text didn't make the point particularly well or was too subtle about something. So what I always try to do is fix it in a way that will satisfy both of us. To do that, I need to know what you were trying to do. If you have an issue with the content, then I have to do some research and see if I was wrong. If you have an issue with the writing style or the length of a sentence, then I can adjust the content of your sentences, or just rewrite the whole paragraph with a more appropriate style or shorter sentences or whatever. I only revert as an absolute last resort. I'm sorry I had to revert one of your edits, but some important content definitely got lost, and, without an edit comment, I didn't know what you were trying to accomplish. ---- CharlesGillingham (talk) 00:27, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
