Leonardo da Vinci
editI've removed your edits.
- Equalled has two ls in English spelling.
- Leonardo was a polymath: item 1, item 2, item 3 etc is the correct grammatical form. The items follow a full colon which indicates that a list is to follow.
Leonardo was a polymath; he was an item 1, item 2 item 3. is clumsy and unnecessary.
- (Leonardo) ... is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time, and the man with the most diversely prodigious talent ever to have lived.[2]
This sentence is entirely correct. Leonardo is considered to be both these things: one of the greatest painters of all time AND the man with the most diversely prodigious talent ever to have lived. The sentence does not claim that he was those things, but that he is considered to have been those things.
The second of these claims, if made in relation to some other individual, might be considered extreme, exaggerated and not appropriate to Wikipedia style. However, the claims, (as you ought to have noticed) are not made by the Wiki editor but are sourced, and the sources are numerous. The reference directs you to a section entitled Leonardo - the Legend which has a string of quotations making such claims and dating from the 16th to the 20th centuries.
Please don't make changes that substantially alter the meaning of the introduction of an article of major importance unless you are a expert in the field. Please go to the page Leonardo da Vinci - scientist and inventor for a better understanding of why he is thought to be "the man with the most diversely prodigious talent ever to have lived" and not merely "a man with a diversely prodigious talent".
My RfA
editThanks for your support in my recent RfA. I'm glad to say it passed, and I hope I'll be able to contribute with the new tools. Shimeru 15:44, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Greetings - I posted the elements for EverBank. Even though I would normally have the authority I see that I might have to re-write the "About" section, but the history part is not copyright. What do I need to do to have that portion returned?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Fotiii (talk • contribs).
I did - thank you. Will do more updates later.
Thank you for your support on my Request for Administration

Leonardo
editNatl1, I just posting here a copy of the message that I sent to Awadewit, the perso who reviewed the Leonardo da Vinci article.
I am the person who has done most of the recent rewriting of the Leonardo da Vinci article and also created Leonardo da Vinci - scientist and inventor. All the writing on Leonardo's workshop, paintings, training, influence, and contemporaries is mine, as well as most of the intro etc. The extent of my edits, of course, are obvious to anyone who checks the history. I have, however, not done anything extensive over a couple of weeks because I've been out of the country.
Your review is valuable and I'll work through all the points that you have made.
On the other hand, I find Natl1's behaviour in seeking a peer revue for an article that another person is obviously spending a great deal of time improving to be impudent to say the least....
Natl1, to put it quite simply, I wasn't ready to seek a peer revue on something that I have been working on intensively. I need to think about it and review it and revise it a few times before that. I don't think it's quite FA class, but it's getting there.

Untitled Comment
editwhy was my edit removed? i was just removing the part about Scotland being 'shity' which i found offensive.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.2.80.185 (talk • contribs).
Your help please...
editHello Natl1,
I have just attempted to make an entry into Wikipedia this weekend and see that it "appears to be an advertisement." That is not the intent, and I would like to ask your advice on how it can be edited to remove that appearance. I have studied the Neutral POV and other guidelines, but have not been able to edit it so that flag is removed.
The page is at "Safe Teen Driving Club". You have marked it a "non notable" company as well. The company helps parents prevent the death of their kids. While does not have the stature of IBM or Walmart, it has been 'notable' to many of us parents.
Being new to this, I am not sure how you will reply, so I am including my email and login ID:
Amareis <email removed to prevent spam>
Thanks in advance for your advice. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Amareis (talk • contribs) 22:35, 1 April 2007 (UTC).
Unless there is any proof on the website where the image originated, we have no idea wether the user was telling the truth. I wouldnt upload it. ffm ✎talk 19:56, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Cuervo_title_sm.jpg
editThanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Cuervo_title_sm.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 13:41, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Project European Union
editHello Natl1/Archive 2, you are member of the project European Union. I try to create a new project page for the project.

Please leave your comments on the talkpage of the project.--Thw1309 11:41, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
Good for you!
editGood for you, and your attitude! I was recently looking at some old RfA's, and I saw that you voted support for a user that was considered, by many, to be much to inexperienced, with the comment that we "have to stop thinking about adminship as a trophy". So good job and I totally agree! Dreamy 17:41, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Hey, there's something screwy with (I think) the reference formatting you did on this article. Some of the text doesn't show up in the article, and I can't figure out what's wrong or how to fix it. Maybe you could take another look? Mycroft7 (talk) 15:58, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
- Aha. I figured it out and fixed it. The reference tags were missing the slash. It was <ref name =Davis> instead of <ref name =Davis/>. That slash, it seems, lets wiki know you're referring to a previous citation. Mycroft7 (talk) 16:27, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Why do you keep calling my edit to the angilo freeland page "vandalism"?
editI left out the piece of shit part. My other edits are within the rules of wikipedia. Was he not a murderer and attempted murderer at the time of his death? So why can't the page reflect his criminal past... in fact it states the opposite that he wasn't a criminal at all when he was shot. It's false information.
I can be reached @ giml0ck@gmail.com

If you are willing to accept, please visit Wikipedia:Requests for adminship to see what this process entails, and then contact me to accept or decline the nomination.--Natl1 (Talk Page) (Contribs) 17:21, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- I have to admit i am truly flattered by this offer, and i am happy to accept it. Several months ago i refused a similar offer since i deemed it to early, but i have to admit that i recently have been playing with the thought to put up an RFA someday so i could help out with several maintenance related sections on Wikipedia. I didn't really have an idea about "when", but i guess this solves that problem :)
- Again, many thanks for the offer

- Please formally accept your nomination at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Excirial and answer the questions.--Natl1 (Talk Page) (Contribs) 18:22, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- It took some time, but im finally done with filling in the questions. I had to triple check the answers because im not a natural born english speaker, which causes some toe-curling grammar at times. (And i don't want that to happen at an RFA :P) Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 19:19, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
AfC
editHi Natl, thanks for the message. Yes I did have a quick look at your new process. I must admit that I don't understand how it works but I think it's great. It would definitely be better to have a separate page for each new request as this would allow any discussion and the decision to be clearly identifiable with the appropriate request. The current page can be a real mess! Recently I made a comment about a request; then someone moved the request I had commented on (for some reason) and my comment then appeared to be about something completely unrelated.
I have doubts about whether people will be able to use the tool without getting hopelessly confused. I know adding 1 to a number is not hard, but I foresee this will be a difficulty! What happens if they don't add 1? (I guess they will be editing someone else's request.)
Ideally, in my opinion, we would allow anonymous editors to create pages in a special "AfC" place and then there would be no need for your process. MSGJ (talk) 17:37, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- Hi, nice idea to use categories in this way. Can I have your thoughts on my comment on Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Submissions/Foymount,_Ontario please? MSGJ (talk) 16:49, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
- Why no reply? MSGJ (talk) 17:40, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
Deleted for your article-moving pleasure. ... discospinster talk 18:56, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
- And moved. MSGJ (talk) 20:34, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
World Class Rock
editI apologize for my edits to World Class Rock. I merely found it strange that it was redirecting to a compilation album, and not Adult Alternative, which is what it is considered related to. If it isn't Adult Alternative, it could be given its own page. World Class Rock, IMO, should not be defined as that album. Thank you, and once again I apologize for my edits. 76.126.15.78 (talk) 22:40, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
- Probably better served as a disambig page. You probably shouldn't have been warned. Q T C 22:43, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry, error warning. See apology here.--Natl1 (Talk Page) (Contribs) 23:46, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
John Michell edit
editHi, you reverted my edit of the above article, saying it introduced incorrect information. You were mistaken. You may wish to search the web on John Michell, Julius Evola, Men Among the Ruins, Radical Traditionalism, etc. You do not even identify what you think was incorrect. Please do some research before hitting the revert button in future and suggesting I post wrong stuff to Wikipedia. Thanks.

AfC experiment
editHi Natl, your experiment has been going for a day now - are you going to revert back to the original process? I think the experiment has gone quite well, but there are a few issues I think we need to discuss before thinking about introducing this permanently. I will add my thoughts to the discussion page. I like what you've done, but you probably should be careful about not pushing big changes through before obtaining consensus. (You can reply here.) Cheers, MSGJ (talk) 22:18, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Okay, I'll have a look through those tomorrow. It seems I have been the only one reviewing those submissions! We can start this discussion and try and get some input from other people too. Cheers, MSGJ (talk) 22:43, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
I have put some of my thoughts on the WT:Articles for creation page. Perhaps you would like to join in, and hopefully we can entice some other people to join the discussion as well! MSGJ (talk) 19:44, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
I have been playing with Template:AFC pending. What do you think? (I'm no template programmer.) It automatically adds to the pending category. I might think about making a tag for reviewed submissions as well.
So you are Russian, but your native language is English? How does that work? MSGJ (talk) 09:12, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
