Proposed deletion of Carl-A. Fechner

The article Carl-A. Fechner has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. JamesG5 (talk) 03:18, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello RobbieIanMorrison, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Efficient energy use has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• 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. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• 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 can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

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. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 19:13, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

well-designed climate tax

Hi, thanks for your interest in the mitigation argicle. Friendly questions.... what is a "well-designed" climate tax? Some would say a well-designed price on carbon is an oxymoron but I'm not one of them, personally. This isn't a climate denial challenge but a real question to avoid tags like "clarification needed" or charges of WP:PUFFERY, which I'm sure you didn't intend. So please don't misundestand.... I'm just sayin' the addition you made needs to be clarified or else "well designed" should be deleted. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 15:29, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello NewsAndEventsGuy. You make a good point. First up, only The Guardian report and the abstract for the Nature Climate Change article are available free of charge. So I was not able to read the entire paper. But from the information available, the authors of the paper investigated a number of tax rates for different classes of food and a number of options to deal with the social equity issues that would arise from hiking the price of basic foodstuffs. Note that the tax is on food and not on carbon. The Guardian talks of an optimum tax arrangement to give the best combination of emissions reductions and health benefits. Anyway, I take your point that the phrasing is poor and should be improved. So I replaced "well-designed climate taxes" with "carefully designed taxes". Thanks for pointing this out. Best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 16:36, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

May I copy this thread (unless you do so first) to the article talk page? Once there, I'd be interested in an explanation how changing "well-designed climate taxes" to "carefully-designed taxes" avoids the issue I raised? NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 18:19, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello NewsAndEventsGuy. Sure. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 18:38, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

November 2016

Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page TPP. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:

• Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
• Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
• Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
  • Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
• Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
• Do not insert external links or references

Thank you. Widefox; talk 10:35, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello Widefox. Thanks for letting me know you reverted an edit of mine. On reflection, the word "international" is sufficient. Editing Wikipedia is clearly a learning process. Best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 10:57, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Hi RobbieIanMorrison, sorry for the template use, I normally revert but spotted it after fixing the dab page. Each entry has only one blue link. Regards Widefox; talk 11:44, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Similarly, there were multiple blue links on EED - fixed. I changing the target of eed. Regards Widefox; talk 12:04, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Copying licensed material requires proper attribution

It appears that you have added material to Draft:Open energy system models using content from http://wiki.openmod-initiative.org/wiki/DESSTinEE. While you are welcome to re-use licensed content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying from other compatibly-licensed web pages, please at minimum mention in an edit summary at the new page where you got the content. It's also a good idea to place a note on the article along with your citation. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied licensed material before, even if it was a long time ago, please go back and provide attribution. Let me know if you have any questions. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:58, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

Hello Diannaa. Clearly I need to either acknowledge the source in an associated commit message (for future reference because it is unfortunately not possible to alter a commit message) or rework the material so that it no longer constitutes a close paraphrase. I will opt for the latter and modify the text. The openmod-initiative wiki uses a CC BY 4.0 license so bringing material across to Wikipedia with its CC BY-SA 3.0 license is acceptable (but going in the reverse direction is not). Thanks for pointing out my mistake. Best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 00:29, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

I've already added the attribution for this. Attribution can be added with a dummy edit like I did in this example. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 00:35, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Draft:Open energy system databases

Hello, I was planning on reviewing your article. All in all it looks great, similar in quality to the final result of Open energy system models which you drafted. My only concern is the lack of inline citations within the lead section - while not a specific criteria for rejection of an article or draft I was wondering if it would be easy enough to support the assertions with inline citations from references you use further down below. Thanks! Garchy (talk) 21:45, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello Garchy. Many thanks for the suggestion. I will have a look at this tomorrow. Best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 22:18, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello again Garchy. Much of the material in the introduction is a synthesis of material from the body of the article. The first two paragraphs don't lend themselves to specific references, in part because nobody in the field has published review papers yet. (One person I spoke to from the open_eGo project admitted that academic publishing has lagged substantially behind platform development.)

The more contentious claim of projects lobbying for better licenses is now backed up with a footnote and a reference to an interview. The claim that both code and data be made accessible is now referenced to DeCarolis et al (2012), who make that point in their paper.

Aside from that, I don't think there is much more I can usefully do. Thanks for the opportunity to make some improvements. Please proceed with your review. I look forward to the outcome. Best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 16:19, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for taking a look at the lead! I would have jumped in to help, but this is a subject matter I am entirely unfamiliar with. Overall, I definitely think this article can be moved to the mainspace at this point. Garchy (talk) 16:21, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello Topcipher. Thanks for the notification. I have copied the wiki markup to a text file on my laptop. So go ahead and delete the draft. The assessment of the reviewer who rejected the submission was correct. The draft will take a lot of work to get it into shape and that is not a priority for me at the moment. With best wishes.

Talk: Deutsche Bank

Hello. I noticed your section in the Talk:Deutsche Bank page created in November 2016. I left a message earlier today in reflection to the recent developments. The outcome from the investigation and fallout might be worthy of its own section in the near future in relation with Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections. So monitoring recent developments is important. Cheers. FunksBrother (talk) 05:53, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

Hello FunksBrother. I agree that the property investment loans by Deutsche Bank to President Trump, a four-times bankrupt, are notable, if only for their incomprehensibility. And that this lending may well end up playing a significant role in the Russian collusion investigation. But the topic is quite far outside my areas of interest and I won't be contributing much. But good luck with your editing. With best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 05:56, 9 August 2017 (UTC)

Hello Saippuakauppias. No just here in Berlin. But I liked what Greta Thunberg had to say, as reported by the Guardian. I saw Arnie was speaking there too. Good luck with COP24. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 07:50, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

Please support the Sustainability Initiative!

Hello RobbieIanMorrison, I saw that you are one of the authors of School strike for climate article. Because I am looking for ways to reduce the environmental impact of Wikipedia itself, I wanted to ask you to check out the Sustainability Initiative and to add your name to the list of supporters so that I can show that many community members are behind this effort. Thanks! --Gnom (talk) 08:42, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi Gnom Thanks for letting me know. I just added my name. Are you aware of Hiltner (2018) and his nearly carbon-neutral conference (NCNC) model? There are inclusion benefits too with NCNC. With best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 10:29, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Wow, thank you, I will take a look! --Gnom (talk)

Hi again Gnom. The document is very sensible. One change I would consider is not using "shuttle" email for the discussion over days or even weeks, but rather a chat service (like Mattermost) and limit the period to say two days. Good luck. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 10:41, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

School strike for climate

Hi, can you look at this change done on the page. I think that this information could be reverted as it is not connected with the topic of the page... Jirka Dl (talk) 21:23, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi Jirka Dl. I agree that that information is not relevant on the School strike for climate page. But it is appropriate for the article on Greta if reworked. I made that suggestion on the school strike talk page. Perhaps others will agree? Thanks for raising the issue. HTH. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 08:57, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi RobbieIanMorrison - this is exactly what I was thinking about - I tried to look the references in the paragraph - only start of the article is available - even if references are cited as English, they are in Swedish - there are continuous attacks on the page Greta Thunberg from the very beginning - look for the discussion page there - and this one looks also to be little bit similar (but probably much more close to reality) - there is a long explanation from Greta on her facebook page - "Ps I was briefly a youth advisor for the board of the non profit foundation “We don’t have time”. It turns out they used my name as part of another branch of their organisation that is a start up business. They have admitted clearly that they did so without the knowledge of me or my family. I no longer have any connection to “We don’t have time”. Nor does anyone in my family. They have deeply apologised for what has happened and I have accepted their apology." And maybe in this sense short information should be on the page. Jirka Dl (talk) 09:22, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi again Jirka Dl. Thanks for the update. I added the PS from Greta's facebook page to the talk page on school strikes. The level of abuse that Greta receives is concerning, that is not how we should treat each other. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 09:51, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi RobbieIanMorrison - I added {{cleanup}} template to the page - I have not found better solution. Jirka Dl (talk) 10:10, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi again Jirka Dl. I usually favor some discussion before rolling back edits. The original author can at least see that their efforts were not summarily removed. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 10:18, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

I hope you don't mind....

Please recall that at Talk:Greta Thunberg, I caused chaos with a preliminary floating of the question "what if we merged" during the WDHT discussion. Today I gathered all the merge discussion in one place. After it was dead, you and I exchanged a single round of comments about edit conflict. Talking about having an edit conflict contributed nothing, so ... apologies for presuming... but I deleted that "noise". Everything you said about article content and merger is still there. I hope you don't mind, I'll restore it if you object. Have a great day! NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 11:58, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

NewsAndEventsGuy (Another merge conflict.) I personally would have left the traffic as it stood. In my view, the prospect of a merge is zero. But that should, of course, not preclude discussion. On the other theme, the WDHT text, I'm going to push WMF legal to establish child protection advocacy: that underlying issue cannot be resolved by random editors on specific talk pages. I am now of the view that European fundamental rights apply to wikipedia pages served into Europe and that WMF has a duty of care to act in the best interests of minors. They need to operationalize that duty of care. With best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 12:12, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

Excellent! Taking those concerns to the real attorneys at the foundation is exactly the best thing that can be done with them. Thanks for (A) caring and (B) investing effort. I look forward to hearing about future developments. As for merge, of course its dead. I've already said four or five or six times that I was floating a feeler not making a proposal and even the feeler already returned results that a real proposal would be DOA. Moving on now.... NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 12:37, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

NewsAndEventsGuy. For your information, I forwarded my concerns to WMF legal today and would expect to get a response in due course. I think this is a significant issue. With best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 17:47, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Great, thanks for doing that. Part of me assumes they keep a close eye on this and may already have concluded that existing policies are adequate. After all, you are approaching this from the desire to set a high bar to protect the kids (and good for you!). The attorneys job is (usually) to verify minimum compliance. I'm cheering for you, though I am not holding my breath in the meantime. Sorry to say, just trying to be friendly and realistic. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 19:05, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

NewsAndEventsGuy I'm sure I'll hear back from legal, so we'll see how that goes. Maybe you're right? Time will tell. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 19:12, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Quaid-e-Azam Solar Park

Hello Robbie, could you help me? I just tried to read the article Quaid-e-Azam Solar Park and was shocked. According to the article, the solar farm must have been an utter failure of the worst kind. But after looking up the sources that should back those claims, I feel puzzled as they don't back those harsh criticism. In fact it seems as if an Wikipedia author has made up most of the criticism by himself or at least misquoted his sources such as making sourced factual statements about capacity factor or prices, but adding how inadequate, expensive or riddled with flaws everything is. It seems as if this [1]is the main source for all that bashing, but after reading it, I cannot comprehend how that article lead to all that harsh condemnation. Above all it seems to me that the author who has written that Wikipedia article is lacking knowledge about how PV works and what is normal. For example he seems to expect a solar power plant to work all around the clock, and because it doesn't, it has to be a failure. I've deleted a similar claim in the past [2], but it is still suggested. In fact, the article mentions that it only produces 18 out of 100 MW several times. And there are many other similar issues as well. Could you check that. As a non-native-speaker its difficult for me to describe all the issues and flaws there, and I don't think that I could provide a completely new article, which I think is needed. And as an Wikipedian who mostly writes in the German Wikipedia, I don't have the knowledge about all that quality control pages that exist here and would be firmly needed. Therefore I thought about you. I know you are an energy researcher, having the knowledge to correct that article, or at least can initiate the quality control processes. Thank you! Andol (talk) 18:22, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you! Andol (talk) 19:30, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Small update: It seems as if most of the controverial/manipulative edits (e.g. [3]) have been made by an user who has been banned due to similar behavior in other articles. And I have also just noticed that another user tried to rewrite the article yesterday after my comment here, though it seems mostly without sources, which is also not the way it should be done. Andol (talk) 13:47, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

@Andol: thanks for the update. I will still have a look this evening. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 15:47, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

@Andol: I read through the article and made some trivial edits. There seems to be quite a lot of commercial and political dispute, but I didn't find anything in the engineering content that I would object to. The recent changes you indicated seemed to have fixed those issues. Thanks for being vigilant. Beste Grüße! RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 21:08, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Geniatech v. McHardy

Nice addition to Open source license litigation; the only issue is is it's got too much detail for a section, with the result that it gives undue weight to this litigation.

In my assessment, the case has enough coverage to clearly pass notability to have its own article; and you've included enough quality references to make that clear.

It looks like you copied/pasted this from your draft at User:RobbieIanMorrison/sandbox/work in progress eW4bo3. What I propose is:

1. Moving User:RobbieIanMorrison/sandbox/work in progress eW4bo3 to Draft:Geniatech v. McHardy (this allows editors other than you to edit it; by convention, your sandbox is your own space and other editors will not revise text there uninvited);
2. revising Draft:Geniatech v. McHardy to conform to standard article format
3. moving Draft:Geniatech v. McHardy to mainspace article Geniatech v. McHardy;
4. trimming the text you added on Open source license litigation to a shorter summary; and
5. continuing to revise, clean up and extend Geniatech v. McHardy.

Any objection? I've long thought the McHardy litigation merited Wikipedia coverage. TJRC (talk) 01:02, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

That sounds excellent!

I ran the draft content past an open source law and technology community I belong to, so it should be reasonably accurate and capture most of the pertinent literature. Indeed I included the following sentiment when announcing the live version to that community: "Given the length, there may be some pressure to push this section out to a stand‑alone page and then include a precis in the parent page?" So no real surprises then. Just the speed of reaction! On a technical note, the live version was just a copy‑paste, so drawing directly from my user space stub is the correct thing to do. Finally, am happy to let someone else "create" the new article — it does not have to be under my username, if that is how it works?

I am willing to write the precis for the parent page too (particularly given my familiarity with the material).

Regarding that series of events from McHardy and his legal advisor, yeh, certainly notable and hopefully some lessons can flow from some added coverage too.

In case I need to ping @TJRC: please note my reply. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 08:56, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
