Since September 2007

edit

I started contributing lately to wikipedia..However my weaknesses are in referencing..any ideas guys-does it just require alot of reading..ie finding differing opinions-sounds like alot of work getting it right academically? A problem with my dissertation at the mo. October 2007.

It takes abit of time, some reading and being confident enough to enquire with experts. Most are helpful! Just doing final dissertation editing. Then finished. December 11th, 2007.


Welcome!

Brian Cowan article duplicate of Brian Cowen article

edit

The Brian Cowan article is obviously a duplicate of the Brian Cowen article, so I have redirected to the correct article. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 00:14, 10 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Broadcasting (Amendment) Act 2007

edit

I agree that the Act is available elsewhere, and as part of my dissertation I have explored it and the result is what you see. I temporarily left the Act up to raise awareness of the Act among visitors but have got down to discussing it now. This hopefully removes copyright issues also Thanks all.

SCTV Digital

edit

The article that I have created needs more citations for which I currently have no time. I have avoided any figures with regards to subcriptions or contact numbers to ensure the article is not advertising. Because it is part of the Irish television distribution landscape in nevertheless warrants encylopedic coverage while stiking a balance not to be advertising. More references may be needed and the article does resemble the website but would not be considered copyright as the info is informational in nature. It can be compared to other articles. However I would suggest amendment rather than deletion if the article is not deemed encyplopedic enough.

I have now viewed your talk page. The article must be covered in third party, reliable sources in order to be deemed notable. You may also want to see Wikipedia's notability guidelines. If you feel the deletion was in error, please request its undeletion at deletion review. I'm willing to answer any questions you may have. Thank you.

I don't normally check people's talk pages, just the article's, but I will consider your suggestion in the future. Yes, I agree with you about Wikipedia's credibility; we must walk a fine line between deleting things of value and including junk that shouldn't be. Good luck on your dissertation, and thanks for your reasonable suggestions. Hopefully, Wikipedia's a pleasant learning experience for you, and that you stay to help. Regards, Keilanatalk(recall) 00:40, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
Yes, if you can't find any sources then it will probably just get deleted again. Often times, people do not understand the difference between truth and verifiability; that difference is very important on Wikipedia. Thank you for being patient, and I hope you have a happy new year. Best regards, Keilanatalk(recall) 00:50, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have no idea what you are talking about with that message .Garda40 (talk) 16:37, 5 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

And I still have no idea what you are talking about .And please do not edit messages on my talk page even your own .Please just add an updated message.

I have restored your orignal message and also added back in your updated version .Garda40 (talk) 19:47, 6 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

I will conform regarding not editing my contributions on other users talk pages. This topic is now closed as I may have unnecessarily brought up the issue of shared IP address blocks I was experiencing. My apologies for my part if so. I request this topic be closed and that no further comments are added unless brief.

However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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.

This image is used in the article Commission_for_Energy_Regulation, has been converted to PNG and the pic commentary updated. If you still feel this image may not be used I will not replace it again as it is up to the authority that owns it regarding its use and I will respect wikipedia rules. Thanks for your understanding, Skier Dude.

193

edit

It may be patently clear to you what edits you are talking about but I still have no ideas what you are talking about since you never bothered to provide any links etc .I never posted a message to your User page before you started this series of messages and if I posted a message to 193 I never took it to be your account .So you have a bit of a cheek telling me to be more mannerly when I have repeatedly told you I have no idea what you are talking about

As for my talk page I don't like messages to be edited on it .I have no problem with a new message being added on to an existing message Garda40 (talk) 00:59, 10 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Because the block is on my page further up, if you bothered read it, there is no need to provide links to it and clog your talk page up.

This topic is now closed. The topic related to before I logged into my accountan article I was updating where occasionally I don't use my account to update it. I was faced with a block due to some editing an article regarding vandalism. That is fine. I was merely clarifying that whoever it appears another user sharing the IP address with me, may have been doing the vandalism to which caused the block,that I was not doing the vandalism for my part using the IP address and that my articles under my username confirm this. That was all. To which your reply should have been, that is fine.

Maybe this update to the talk page was unnecessary as perhaps shared IP address and vandalism is well know to more seasoned wikipedians and not worthy of talk. However Garda40, you seemed to show lack of understanding and rather made a point of 'I don't know what yer talking about' rather than say, 'oh, that often happens' and that would be the end of the topic. That would be 'mannerly'. Perhaps I did not explain the problem clearly enough to you earlier. But I expect it is now clear. But now it has blown out of all proportion into a ill-mannered debate because of the way you reacted to my input on your talk page with disdain.

I see no benefit to debate further with you, nor wish to have any interaction in the future with you due to your ill-mannered attitude towards me, showing clear lack of interest in getting to the root of the issue and I don't want any more interaction with you on my talk page. I will not add to your talkpage again for my part and ask you do the same. Let's respect each others viewpoints and let it go.Scathain (talk) 19:35, 11 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

One Vision

edit

I saw your edit about OV entering into talks. (Personal comment: nice to see companies realising that recessions don't go on for ever. :)) Yeah, I was a bit worried about notability at the atart of the article; not that I thought that the subject was inherently non-notable, but at the stage when the consortium was really only a vehicle for the bid, I thought there might be a problem. But there has been enough commentary to generate sources since. I also have to admit that though I was following the general story of DTT over the last few years, I didn't realize that Boxer had pulled out until I read it on Wikipedia. :) FlowerpotmaN·(t) 15:34, 1 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
