If you have any interest in editing Wikipedia by smartphone, I encourage you to read my essay, Smartphone editing. Thank you.

Welcome to my talk page I use the name Cullen328 on Wikipedia, but you can call me "Jim" because that's my real first name. If you want to start a new conversation, please click "New section" at the top of this page.

The importance of a friendly greeting

Hello and welcome to my talk page. If you want to start a new conversation, please click "New section" at the top of this page. I keep the comments that follow from July and August of 2009 readily visible, because these friendly words of greeting made me feel welcome here on Wikipedia when I first started editing. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 17:38, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

Please offer your thoughts

I would appreciate comments and suggestions on any contributions I make. I am learning.Cullen328 (talk) 03:22, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Nice work on Jules Eichorn. He's been needing an article for a while.   Will Beback  talk  06:28, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

If I may suggest, now that you've posted the Eichorn article the draft below might be deleted. It's your talk page to do with as you like, but it's a bit hard to edit around.

As for formatting and pictures, a good way to learn is to look around at other articles to see what you think looks best. It can be helpful to break up long blocks of text into subsections. Perhaps it'd be possible to split the biography into two or three eras. Other than that, the formatting is usually kept fairly plain. As for photos, it's easy to upload them: the trick is in finding photos with appropriate licensing. If you have any personal photos then those'd be fine. There are might be pictures of the peaks he did first ascents on in the Wikicommons. File:Cathedral Peak.png is a so-so pic of Eichorn Pinnacle.

As before, feel free to ask if you have any questions. There are several editors here who are mountaineers or just admirers of the Sierra, so you're in good company.   Will Beback  talk  21:13, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

PS: Many editors create "sandbox" pages for drafting articles. For example, User talk:Cullen328/Sandbox.   Will Beback  talk  00:17, 1 August 2009

Your climber biographies

Hey Jim, just wanted to say welcome and thanks for your contributions to the Sierra Nevada climbing history articles. You're filling a niche that's been missing here, I look forward to working with you. --Justin (talk) 11:54, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

I'll second that. Nice work on Allen Steck and welcome to Wikipedia. I don't know who you are planning to write up next but if your taking requests I think Peter Croft (climber) could really use a page. If you ever have any questions please ask. Thanks again for your great additions.--OMCV (talk) 02:25, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks Justin and OMCV. I am beginning work on Tom Frost and Glen Dawson. Comments on Norman Clyde would be welcomed. I will defintely read up on Peter Croft, OMCV. I am still "learning the ropes" in Wikipedia, to use a climbing analogy, and have all sorts of things in mind. My biggest challenge right now is getting permission to use images. My next biggest challenge is hiking to the top of Mt. Whitney with my wife in ten days - she's never been above 12,000 feet except for the train ride up Pikes Peak. As she's 56 and developing arthritis in her toes, it will be an accomplishment if she (and I) complete the Class 1 feat. Jim Heaphy (talk) 02:34, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Debra and I made it to the summit of Mt. Whitney at 2:20 PM on Friday, September 11. Jim Heaphy (talk) 00:59, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Adding cover images

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your response. I fully agree with your rationale - but how do I "just do it"? I've gone to one of the image pages and tried to update the summary and licensing info (adapted from another album page from the same band), and was greeted with a rapid deletion message. The code I used was as follows:

Bay Area WikiSalon series kickoff, April 27

Please join us in San Francisco!

Panel discussion at a recent Wikipedia & Journalism event.

The last Wednesday evening of every month, wiki enthusiasts in the San Francisco Bay Area will gather to collaborate, mingle, and learn about new projects and ideas. We have two brief presentations lined up for our kickoff event in downtown San Francisco:

• The Nueva Upper School recently hosted the first ever high school Wikipedia edit-a-thon. We will hear what interests them about Wikipedia, what they have learned so far, and what they hope to achieve.
• Photojournalist Kris Schreier Lyseggen, author of The Women of San Quentin: The Soul Murder of Transgender Women in Male Prisons, will tell us about her work and how she researched the topic.

We allow time for informal conversation and working on articles. Newcomers and experienced wiki users are encouraged to attend. We will have beverages and light snacks.

Please note: You must register here, and bring a photo ID that matches your registration name. The building policy is strict on this point.

For further details, see here: Wikipedia:Bay Area WikiSalon, April 2016

We hope to see you -- and until then, happy editing! - Pete, Ben & Wayne

Interview invitation from a Wikipedia researcher in University of Minnesota

Hello Cullen328,

I am Bowen Yu, a Ph.D. student from GroupLens Research at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. Currently, we are undertaking a study about turnover (editors leaving and joining) in WikiProjects within Wikipedia. We are trying to understand the effects of member turnovers in the WikiProject group, in terms of the group performance and member interaction, with a purpose of learning how to build successful online communities in future. More details about our project can be found on this meta-wiki page.

I notice you are active in activities related to project page and project talk page, so I wonder if I could invite you for an interview if you are interested in our study and willing to share your experience with us. The interview will be about 30 - 45 minutes via phone, Skype or Google Hangout. You will receive a $10 gift card as compensation afterwards.

Please reach me at bowen@cs.umn.edu if you are interested or have any questions.

Thank you,

Bowen

Sakaimover

I'm at a loss here. I feel like he's here for very much the wrong reasons but... I also have to wonder if he's trolling. He's doing everything in his power not to edit articles, including the sad practice of demanding barnstars from people he gave barnstars too. Might be a maturity thing? I don't know. I think I should disengage. I just wanted to let you know that whatever lesson he's learning from all of this, it is not the right one. --Tarage (talk) 05:54, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, Tarage. Blocked 24 hours with another warning. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 07:24, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

Cullen328 he's doing it again. He's reverting edits that aren't vandalism and then apologizing, and complaining that people telling him that he's being disruptive is "triggering". Can we get like... a ban from editing other people's user pages as well? I'm not a fan of him adding "Banned user" to random banned users who have no talk pages ala: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Duolingi&oldid=860935547

Really I want him to stop this nonsense campaign to become an admin by trying to be some sort of anti vandalism super hero when he doesn't even have experience editing normally... --Tarage (talk) 02:39, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

In fact looking at his edits, he went and added some stub infoboxes on a grand total of two pages and then went RIGHT BACK to reverting people and leaving increasingly aggressive anti-vandalism messages. He's convincing me very hard that he isn't here to build a wiki, but to become an admin for some sort of power trip. --Tarage (talk) 02:43, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

This is a returning user; although I cannot immediately recall where I saw the familiar behaviour. Alex Shih (talk) 02:56, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

@Cullen:? He's since "taken a wiki break". I'm... unconvinced this is going to stop. --Tarage (talk) 20:51, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Tarage and Alex Shih, I share your concerns about this editor, and have asked Sakaimover several questions on their talk page. Pinging TonyBallioni who recently declined their request for rollback. Tony, what do you think? Like Alex, I suspect this may be a returning user, although I do not remember who. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 01:55, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

I’m 100% convinced this is a returning user based on the age of the account, how long it took them to make their first edit, and what that edit was (perfectly adding a reference). I don’t grant rollback with less than a month of observable experience, however, which is why I declined. As I’ve made clear in my RfA and to ArbCom, this is a second account, so I have no problem with it if done correctly, but my view is that if you’re a clean start, we can only assess based on what we see, which is why I declined. TonyBallioni (talk) 02:04, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

Maybe I'm thinking too hard about this but... @Cullen: he's still adding banned templates to user pages. Creating the page in fact to do so. Yes, he is doing some editing, which is good, but at this point I'm just about ready to go to ANI and suggest a topicban from reverting vandalism... if that's a thing. He clearly is not ready for it, and his user page reflects that. He needs to stop reverting people all together unless it's specifically on the page he is editing. Am I wrong? I'll stop completely if you advise me to. I just hate seeing this pattern of behavior continue. --Tarage (talk) 01:59, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

This post here does seem a bit suspicious given what others have posted above about this editor. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:38, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

Wasn't gonna post on their talk page again but given the whole autism thing I felt laying it all out as plainly and bluntly as possible would be for the best. If this fails, I'm sadly going to have to take this to ANI. There's a good editor in there somewhere, but they can't seem to get away from this desire to play policeman. --Tarage (talk) 03:45, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

┌─────────────────────────┘Please take a look at the comment that I made on their talk page, Tarage and Marchjuly. I would like to help this editor transition to being more productive and less disruptive here. Am I taking the right path? Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:02, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

I think so? I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing either. I just wanted to be as cut and dry as possible. The ball is in their court now. Like I said, I think their citation work is A+. If they just focus on that, I'll have nothing to complain about. But the vandalism reverting stuff needs to stop. --Tarage (talk) 04:12, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

I have been watching this situation pretty much since the beginning, when some of SM's edits popped up on my watchpage. Like most, my initial inclination was towards either deliberate shit-disturbing or a serious CIR issue. It's easy to become suspicious, if not jaded, towards such behaviour, but in light of the Autism disclosure, we should AGF and with the assumption that they're telling the truth and act accordingly (avoiding repeated use of the word "claim" or phrases like "your superior brain"). They may have added the info about IQ and intellect due to fear of being thought of as "dumb" or "stupid". Age could also be a factor. They may have been hoping to impress you, Cullen. Ultimately, we have to watch out for the stability of the project, and if it turns out they're just some troll, at least we all took the high road. JMHO - wolf 23:09, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

Sagecandor (talk) 22:04, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello, Sagecandor. I believe that the book is notable, but other editors may disagree. No need to mention the title three times in a short post. Also, you do not need to argue for notabilty in the text of the article. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 22:18, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

Okay, thank you for your analysis, I hope you are correct ! Sagecandor (talk) 22:19, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

• I hope you are reading Wikipediocracy these days, Jim, there is an entire thread on Kavenaugh-related Wikipedia articles which I believe you would find most illuminating. Yeah, that's a hint. Carrite (talk) 12:34, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

• I rarely read that site, Tim, because I find the ratio of vile paranoid snark to useful observations to be way too high. But I took a look and entered "Kavanaugh" into the main search box and the forum search box. The only hit I got was mention of an industrial designer named Gere Kavanaugh. Obviously, I am not competent to search that site, so can you please send me a link? Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 18:36, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

I always hesitate to give WPO links because of the Crazy Ass Factor at WP, but this thread should be safe enough: LINK. Carrite (talk) 03:03, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Oh, that's not going to be viewable unless you sign in for an account. Sign in for an account. Carrite (talk) 03:06, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

So they have secret content that you need to be a member to view? I am extremely uncomfortable with that. I do not want any kooks threatening to kill my granddaughter, Carrite. I trust you 100% but not a lot of those folks. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:02, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Actually, it's the exact opposite of what you think — it's an honorable section for controversial content stashed away from the Google search engine. Easily viewable, except you have to be registered to view it; thus the bots are kept out. I can certify that nothing bad will come of you by registering there, the powers that be are all upstanding folks. Carrite (talk) 04:13, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

I will take a look if they let me into their private clubhouse, but I am highly skeptical of that entire venture, Tim. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:49, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

User:Connor McCormick

Hi Jim. Would you (or any of your many talk page watchers) mind checking Connor McCormick for WP:U5 issues. I posted something on this editor’s user talk about a week ago asking them to reassess the content on their user page, but never got a response. They seem to be using it as some sort of online diary. — Marchjuly (talk) 23:20, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for checking. — Marchjuly (talk) 02:53, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

You are welcome, Marchjuly. Yes, I deleted that user page, but I got distracted by real world events and forgot to let you know. Sorry. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:44, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Wow Jim. That went off the rails rather quickly. — Marchjuly (talk) 22:33, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Yes, Marchjuly, it turned into a train wreck. Maybe I should trim my user page, but not to that radical extent. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 22:58, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Why did you delete My wiki page and what happens if someone dose it to You (User talk:Connor McCormick) —Preceding undated comment added 17:38, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

My deletion of your user page was proper and in compliance with policy. Your blanking of my user page was retaliatory and contrary to policy. That is why another administrator blocked you. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 22:58, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

New editor user page

hi mate could you please have a look at this young editors user page, with the listing of classmates. I've asked them not to, but I don't want to scare them off. Flat Out (talk) 05:15, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello, Flat Out. It is always nice to hear from a friend from "down under", as the kids say. I have deleted that user page, and tried to be friendly to the user. But that page was not appropriate. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 06:09, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Making it easier to editing Wikipedia by smartphone

Hey — as a new designer & researcher at the WMF, specifically trying to learn about smartphone editing workflows, I found your essay on editing Wikipedia by smartphone extremely helpful. I am on the Reading Web team and as described in this year's Annual Plan we're working on making it "easier for someone to contribute productively to Wikimedia projects on a mobile device, leading to more mobile edits and higher retention". We're not working on the editor itself (another team is doing that), but rather all of the supporting elements that are fundamental to editing (history, watchlist, user contribs, etc.).

To start this work we're redesigning the navigation for logged-in users (potentially behind an opt-in "advanced" mode). If you have some time to check out our designs and leave feedback that would be fantastic, given your experience and insights. You can do so here.

Not to nitpick but...

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Cambridge_Optic&oldid=861242613 - "personal attacks against your fellow editors and an administrator" Why the specific callout of an administrator? Is attacking an administrator different than attacking a fellow editor? Aren't admins fellow editors too? Not trying to nitpick you into the ground but... wanted to know why the differentiation. --Tarage (talk) 19:04, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

It was a simple statement of fact, Tarage, but I take your point. I will try to limit myself to mentioning that a given editor is an administrator only when it is directly relevant to the situation. Thank you for the feedback. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 02:10, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

You're totally wrong about my motives

Not that this will make a y difference to the decision made - I just wanted to point out that any claim of a conflict of interest was false and baseless.

It's a fact the content i added was solely for the benefit of the wiki page. Putting my Twitter account on Wikipedia doesn't benefit me not one bit. For one I don't careless about followers and in fact about approximately once a year I deactivate my Twitter account and create a new identical account and so any followers I had are lost. I do that so as it is not on any block lists (it gets put on block lists just for having anonymous members follow it). So I wouldn't do that if I was trying to get followers.

Whilst my account was listed on Wikipedia I never made mention of it on Twitter, I didn't put it in my bio nor tweet about it as I didn't care less whether anyone knew it was on Wikipedia, I was just glad that if someone interested in bots looked at the Twitter bot page there was a good example of a Twitter bot rather than no examples which was the case before I with good faith added content which improved the wiki page. After adding my account to the wiki page, I even altered my Twitter bot to make it a better example of a Twitter bot solely for any readers of the wiki page; doing that does NOT benefit me as it means that I could never have my Twitter account verified as Twitter won't allow a verified account to have a profile pic that is automated to regularly change throughout the the day.

Maybe you wrongly think i would want to use my account being on wiki to get publicity for my business or website but I don't own a business nor website!

Maybe you wrongly think I wanted to get publicity for me personally as in myself be interviewed; well the fact is I'm never going to reveal publicly my identity as being the owner of that account as I'm actually being stalked by numerous anonymous members whom think it's funny to tweet vicious lies about me/my Twitter account as well as making false reports to the FBI anonymously about my Twitter account (part of the reason deactivate it a create a new one every year).

Having my account on Wikipedia could also get me targeted by trolls.

So yeah your TOTALLY wrong about my motives.

So much for volunteering to help Wikipedia... totally ungrateful! HardeeHar (talk) 04:51, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

Amost every single highly experienced Wikipedia editor who takes the time to look at your pattern of editing will agree with me that you have a glaring conflict of interest, HardeeHar. We do not care at all about your assertions regarding your real intentions or your unverified claims about Twitter or the FBI. Editors who are here for the purpose of adding references to their own work here on Wikipedia have a conflict of interest. Period. End of story. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 05:09, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

@HardeeHar:(talk page stalker) Cullen has it right here. Regardless of your intentions, when you add content to an article that is closely associated with yourself, such as something you built or developed, this is a conflict of interest. It's not really about your opinions or motives, it's about your relationship to the topic, which you have established. When you I find myself in that kind of situation, I usually just acknowledge that I'm probably not the best person to write about it, and I should ask or let someone else decide to add it or not.

Hello, Md.Ali25. I understand your concerns but I am not an expert in username violations. I suggest that you discuss the matter with an administrator who is active at WP:UAA. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 07:39, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

User:RED Del Castillo

Hi Jim. I think you might have already deleted RED Del Castillo once before based upon User talk:RED Del Castillo#September 2018, but not sure if this latest version is the same as before. I was going to advise the user to move this to their sandbox, but figured I check with you first since there's no point in doing so if it's just going to be deleted again. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:31, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Hello, Marchjuly. I cannot review the earlier versions because all of that content has been suppressed by an oversighter. My recollection, though, is that the earlier version was different and had a lot of personal information. So, please feel free to suggest moving this content to their sandbox.

Thanks for taking a look. -- Marchjuly (talk) 22:06, 20 October 2018 (UTC)

Teahouse

Thank you for your help with answering my questions at the Teahouse yesterday. I left some other messages afterwords, so I'm not sure if you just didn't see them or have been busy with life, but I haven't got a response from anyone else - so when you get the time, I'd appreciate if you took a look at them. Once again, thank you. Clovermoss (talk) 18:10, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
