Explanation

[edit]

I don't know how to sign my name. I'm user napierk. There is no need to have two pages with the exact same info on it. A redirect page is unnecessary. I guess I'm pretty anal and like things to be perfect. I am an intern from Basic Black assigned to do this. I don't think it's necessary to have two exact things coming up in the search engine. There should just be one Basic Black (CBC Program) in that searchbox. Please do not redirect. I already linked Basic Black and Basic Black (CBC Program) together. A redirect page is not needed. Go to Basic Black and see for yourself. Thanx :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Napierk (talk • contribs) 22:23, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just curious. Why are stuck on having a redirect page in between the two pages instead of linking it directly and why do you want two exact subjects in the searchbox. Just curious :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Napierk (talk • contribs) 22:26, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey again. people will not type in the CBC part. They will only type in basic black because I added the CBC part to distguish it from the regular basic black on WGBH. It will link to the other Basic Black (CBC). Thanx for letting me know about the signing. I'm practicing now :)

Great thanx for deleting it :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Napierk (talk • contribs) 22:38, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

db-empty

[edit]

I have reverted your edit to the template {{db-empty}} because something went wrong, and I don't know how to fix it. Here's what it looked like when I transcluded it:

As you see, there are two places where the word "CRITERION" appears where a wikilink to WP:CSD#A3 should be.

If I see a way to fix this problem, I will restore your edit. --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 23:54, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done. It was just a matter of a missing parameter in a transcluded template. --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 00:01, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Cathedral Church of the Holy Trinity (Quebec City) has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. Bdog9121 (talk) 03:06, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry this was my mistake.--Bdog9121 (talk) 03:16, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No Problem. Cheers! --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 03:19, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Urban Task Force

[edit]

Hello,

you have a point indeed. I thougt it would be self-explanatory. Do you consider the new passage (first para) as helpful?

M


The Urban Task Force has been set up by the British Government in 1998. Its Mission was “to identify the causes of urban decline in England”. The Urban Task Force published various reports. The final report was named “Towards an Urban Renaissance”. The media picked up the recommendations, such as increasing density of our cities. The Urban Task Force helped to create a debate about the future of the cities not only in England but all over Britain.


Chairman of the Urban Task Force was the architect (Lord) Richard Rogers, other members were Richard Burdett, Tony Burton, Alan Cherry, Martin Crookston, Anthony Dunnett, Sir Peter Hall, Phil Kurby, David Lunts, Anthony Mayer, Anne Power, Sir Crispin Tickle, Wendy Thomson, Lorna Walker. Secretaries to the Urban Task Force were Jon Rouse 1998 – 1999, Markus Rosenthal 1999 - 2000 and Alex Blum 2000 - 2001. External adviser was Tony Travers from the London School of Economics. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Markus.ashley (talk • contribs) 15:42, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it makes it a lot better. Good Luck. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 02:36, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just wanted to ask why you always destroy my links and my contributions ??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnny-bollock-rotten (talk • contribs) 20:17, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anti-Wikipedian

[edit]

Reverting and making CSD tags on articles without justifying on the talk page is anti-wikipedia. How about you try to help out, and stop deliberately hindering the project. Saboteur vandalism is what is is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eedo Bee (talk • contribs) 17:31, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not use personal attacks in messages. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 17:33, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It is not a personal attack, it is true. --Eedo Bee (talk) 17:36, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It is not true. Please do not make unconstructive edits on wikipedia, or you will be blocked from Wikipedia.--Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 17:40, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ditto --Eedo Bee (talk) 17:44, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Personal Attacks

[edit]

Hi Willisis2, I have asked Eedo Bee to refrain from further personal attacks. I do not feel that a block is required at this point, but clearly that user is treading on this ice. Thanks, Gwernol 17:58, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok Thanks. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 18:00, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am being oppressed by Very Harmful policies. --Eedo Bee (talk) 18:16, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
VERY Harmful --Eedo Bee (talk) 18:17, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The policies are there for a good reason. You should follow them instead of criticizing them. Thee copyright policy is law. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 22:23, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blocking User:Eedo Bee

[edit]

Hi again Willisis2. Well, you saw how that ended. Very sad, but unfortunately it was clear that Eedo Bee doesn't have the ability to work with others or remain calm and civil. Thanks for the help. Best, Gwernol 22:27, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was nothing without you! --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 22:29, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism of reduplication article?

[edit]

Could you please explain to me how my edits vandalized the article on reduplication?

John McCarthy Professor of Linguistics University of Massachusetts Amherst —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjmccart (talk • contribs) 23:31, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't call the edit vandalism, but Wikipedia policies call unconstructive edits vandalism. I undid the edit because the previous version of the article was more up to Wikipedia quality standards. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 23:38, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Topic on Employerbility.

[edit]

Hi Willisis2,

I would like to request for some help on writing an article on 'Employerbility'. It has come to my attention that the page has been deleted twice citing the reasons of Copyrights, which my company owns entirely. We produced the research and documents that I have sent to Wikimedia to explain that we hold the copyrights. I would like some help on this matter as I am totally clueless as to how I am to proceed in order to launch this word in Wikipedia.

My boss is rather clueless as well and we would very much appreciate some help from Wikipedia on this matter. Do hope someone could help us soon to produce this artcile on Wikipedia.

Regards, Don

Somme American Cemetery and Memorial

[edit]

Thank you for tagging Somme American Cemetery and Memorial as a copyright problem. The text of the article was taken from a U.S. federal government site, and is therefore in the public domain. I therefore removed the copyvio tag and expanded the article a bit. --Eastmain (talk) 22:47, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Monica Törnell

[edit]

I don't know where it's copied from, as I explained on the article's Talk page, though I suspect it's from another language's Wikipedia article. Corvus cornixtalk 23:45, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

db-noteng tag

[edit]

You placed a {{db-notenglish}} tag on Ελευθερούπολη. I removed that tag because this article does not exist at the Greek wikipedia nor at any other Midiawiki project. It would have to be translated or transwikied first. According to policy, the db-notenglish tag should be put only to prevent duplication of the same text on two different Mediawiki projects, see section A2 of the criteria for speedy deletion.  Andreas  (T) 15:20, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for clearing that up. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 15:21, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Vermont Oxford Network page

[edit]

Hi - This is my first time creating a new Wikipedia page, so I'm not sure what kind of copyright proof you require. We have the written permission (and verbal, for that matter) of the VON CEO. Do you need to see that? This is regarding the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermont_Oxford_Network page. Vonnet (talk) 17:53, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just a reminder that when adding the Copyviocore tag to pages, you need to list the item at Wikipedia:Copyright problems as well. - Toon05 20:59, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
My bad. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 23:43, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting my own Article

[edit]

(Please note that the original message was put on Wikipedia talk:Editor review/Willisis2) Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.)

Hi again -

This is regarding en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermont_Oxford_Network. I passed the GNU information on to our director and he would like the page deleted. It seem it has some implications for us that we hadn't realized. Is it possible to have the page deleted after all? Sorry about all the back and forth here! Vonnet (talk) 19:41, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You could blank the page and add {{db-author}}. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 23:49, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Go Ahead

[edit]

I've gone ahead and added the db-author tag, it is appropriate for use in this instance, given that the user has explicitly requested its deletion above. Just make sure you link to the request in edit hist if you need to do this at any time. - Toon05 17:24, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok Thanks--Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 18:12, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

[edit]

Thanks. Worst comes to worst I should be able to at least use it on the PersonalBrain page. --Enzuru 01:42, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Article move

[edit]

That's the correct name. See their website. --Enzuru 02:00, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mansfield Art Center

[edit]

One your edit summary on the CSD decline[1] you said "the article is not about a person, so it does not fall under A7." That is not correct. A7 includes "unremarkable people, groups, companies, and web content" which includes organizations. See also Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7 -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 02:38, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi, I left a message to which you replied under the Copyright problems header on my talk page :-) regarding my contribution, Church of Greece structure. I am the original author from OrthodoxWiki! I put the page on OW in the first place ...what happens in those case? Is the owner the person who put the article up or OW? - Ixthis888 (talk) 02:52, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Parsons Functions

[edit]

Do you have any idea about why Parson functions would not work on other Wiki sites? - Ixthis888 (talk) 02:52, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have noticed that if you use code that starts with # on Wikipedia or WikiSource (for example, #if or #expr - I believe these are called "Parson functions"?) they work. If you try to use these same functions on other sites they dont work. I was wondering why the would work on one wiki site but not on another and how can I get them "activated" on another wiki site. (Is that better? the explanation that is?) - Ixthis888 (talk)

Vandalism

[edit]

I'm not sure why you left [2]. The edits in question don't look like vandalism. Phil Sandifer (talk) 21:01, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't remember the edit, but I'm sure that the edit wasn't constructive. --Ŵïllî§ï$2 (Talk!/Cont.) 13:17, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
