Who is a jew

Your addition to "who is a jew" is worthwhile, though could use a bit of refactoring to reflect its one definition of who is jewish. I noticed your revision was rolled back by jayjg. This guy has a history of reverting anything that doesn't fall within his POV on jewish related articles. Good luck with getting your worthwhile addition in. 67.0.75.137 (talk) 21:18, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Carib

Hello Mark! Your changes vastly improved the Carib text and I have gone in and continued where you left off. I hope you agree with my changes. I`ve a feeling more could be found on the pre-Colombian geopolitical stuff but I`ll stop there for today. Mona-Lynn 22:13, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Hi again. I agree that it's too bad the new facts on Caribs weren't referenced. I don't have any particular knowledge of this culture, just general Latin America knowledge, so can't shed any light on its veracity, but it didn't seem too biased "et rien ne clochait". I generally stick with editing on Wikipedia for which there seems to be a great need, and reserve it for sleepless nights. Mona-Lynn 11:06, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Freemasonry

Mark, I just wanted to let you know I liked your latest edit. The "in that period" puts it at the proper historical remove, IMO. --SarekOfVulcan 02:38, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Third Republic's Presidents...

I have re-written a part of Thiers and added a section to MacMahon, please take a look and tell me want you think (reply on this page), thanks --130.161.31.80 11:20, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hi -- Almost everything in the Thiers piece is from the 11th ed. of the Ency. Brit. article -- of historical interest, but IMHO not appropriate for Wikipedia. I have no special knowledge of Thiers myself, I'm afraid. Thanks for your interest! Mark K. Jensen 06:48, Mar 5, 2005 (UTC)

I took information from the Marxists.org#Encyclopedia_of_Marxism and worked it in the article (both articles). I don't know anything about Thiers and MacMahon too but I couldn't leave those two articles without clearly showing the roles these men played during the end of the Empire and the Paris Commune. --145.94.41.95 15:47, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The Party's Over: Oil, War, and the Fate of Industrial Societies

I guess we just have a different idea of what is readable. Take a look at the following sample. Seems like far, far, far too much information (page numbers?!) and an absence of context or meaning. "Epigraphs from Ludwig Boltzman, Leslie White, and Isaac Asimov (9). Energy and earth; conservation and entropy (10-11). Systems, isolated and closed (11-12). Fuels (12). Earth as closed system (12). Solar energy: 1,372 watts per sq. meter (12-13). Producers (autotrophs) and consumers (heterotrophs), depending on source of energy (13). Herbivores; primary, secondary, and tertiary carnivores; photosynthesis; aerobic respiration; anaerobic respiration (13-14). Ecology: study of food cycles or webs, and energy flows (14-15). Liebig’s Law on population limits (15). " To me, this is an index not a synopsis. Regards --Lee Hunter 12:24, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Chicago Blackhawks page

You've been around the block a while, so kindly refrain from further vandalism in the hockey pages. RGTraynor 12:19, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

My apologies; Virgil Johnson certainly was a real player, as I can see. Nevertheless it's quite inappropriate for the Blackhawks' page. The "Hall of Famers" list you see is for the Hockey Hall of Fame, not for any local or regional halls, and there are no circumstances under which a fellow who played just 76 NHL games (most of those in a single season on a war- and injury-ravaged Chicago defense) would qualify for -- or be worthy of -- inclusion under the Team Pages Format.

How dare you!

How dare you write such an unbelieveably great précis at Imperial Hubris and not make précis the focus of your editing from then on! What a fantastic job you did! It's the best summary of a book on wikipedia I've seen. You deserve a barnstar or some other such recognition. Well done. You are a serious contributor to the encyclopedia who puts my penny-ante political editing to shame. I am going to seriously consider changing to focusing on précis. Please do more! Thank you!  :-) Lawyer2b 00:46, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Top Secret America

Thanks for the copy edit. Would you mind taking a look at Top Secret America? I put it in for DYK, and could use a good writer on it. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:43, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the acknowledgment and encouragement! I'll take a look. Mark K. Jensen (talk) 23:05, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Splendid! Now, any suggestions for a better DYK hook? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:45, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

How about: Did you know that according to the Washington Post "no one knows how much money [the U.S. intelligence system] costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it, or exactly how many agencies do the same work"? Or is a "did you know that no one knows" too much of an oxymoron? :-/ Mark K. Jensen (talk) 00:07, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Nice. I think the article name needs to be present, plus it's a bit long. How about:

• Did you know that according to Top Secret America, no one knows how much money the U.S. intelligence system costs, how many people it employs, or how many programs exist within it?

Proposed deletion of Terror and Consent: the Wars for the Twenty-first Century

The article Terror and Consent: the Wars for the Twenty-first Century has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

One review does not make a book notable. Wikipedia is not a place for book abstracts either.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.  Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 03:49, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Terror and Consent: the Wars for the Twenty-first Century

As I looked for instances of the book being cited by other scholarly work, I found that this book does indeed meet our inclusion guidelines. However, what you've written is utterly unencyclopedic. While a description of the contents of a book is welcome, a chapter-by-chapter abstract is not what we want in an encyclopedia. Actually, the New York Times review that you've included in the article is closer to an encyclopedia article than what you've written.

I suggest you cut down the contents section to about a quarter of its current size, merge all sections on individual chapters into a single section, and add an analysis on how the book influenced othe scholars. That would be encyclopedic. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 14:41, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

The War in the Air

Nice work with the various HG Wells pages. However, I have a minor pettifogging quibble about The War in the Air...

You wrote:

...notable for its prophetic ideas, images, and concepts—in this case, the use of the aircraft for the purpose of warfare and the coming of World War I.

Surely the novel centres around the use of the rigid airship in war rather than fixed wing aircraft, with the latter playing a very minor role. Indeed, Butteridge's marvellous machine seems no more than a "MacGuffin".

The Land Ironclads

Hello, Mr. Jensen. Greetings from England.

I have taken the liberty of amending your entry in the above article to reflect, if you will forgive me, more accurately the influence of the above story on the early tank designers. It is a complicated subject, and I should be happy to discuss it at length, if you wish. For the time being, though, I would offer the following brief explanation.

Smith's book is a dangerous piece of work. It is notoriously uncritical of Wells in almost every respect, and when it comes to his role in the origins of the tank, every goose is a swan. Smith's paragraph in which he seeks to persuade us that The Land Ironclads led directly to the tank uses shameful sleight of hand. The supporting notes are vague or fallacious. Of course Wells was congratulated by people who knew only his story and nothing of the true origins of the tank. The reference to Churchill's letter ("thanks for Britling [the novel Mr. Britling Sees It Through] and the tank idea") could mean a number of things and doesn't support Smith's contention at all. Does it mean "thanks for writing Britling and for its useful effect on wartime morale" or is it simply a thank you for a copy of it? Thanks for the idea of tanks or for one of the many ideas about the use of tanks with which Wells bombarded Churchill once he had seen a tank for himself? At present I do not have access to the original papers, but am seeking to examine them; when I am able to do so, I shall ensure that there is none of the same ambiguity about their meaning. It is true that some people knew of or were influenced in some way and to some extent by the short story, but the causal link that Smith tries to establish cannot be satisfactorily shown to have existed.

This brings us up against one of Wikipedia's fundamental flaws. One may disagree with many aspects of a source, but this example seems to pass Wikipedia's Verifiability, because it is published in a book. No matter that the claims are wrong. Fortunately, though, we can remove them within the rules of Wikipedia, because the reports of the hearing to which Smith refers show that Churchill did not testify "under oath that the idea had originated with Wells". On that basis, the source can be removed. It is, if you like, a similar situation to the one a couple of years ago in which a wealth of sources claimed that George S. Patton Jr played a significant part in the Battle of Cambrai, whereas the historical fact is that he went nowhere near the battle. Ultimately, though not without resistance, some parties conceded that something that purports to be an encyclopaedia ought to contain information that approximates to the truth.

I do hope you accept my alterations and the reasoning behind them. I know that there can often be acrimonious exchanges when one makes a correction of this nature, but I hope you will take these in the spirit in which they are made. I should be happy to discuss this further, perhaps on the article's Talk page. Hengistmate (talk) 03:31, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Mark K. Jensen! Your additions to Common Cause (magazine) have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing.
