Speedy deletion of Hong Chenchou edit

 

A tag has been placed on Hong Chenchou requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Regarding reversions[1] made on January 19 2008 to Marshal of the Soviet Union edit

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution.

  • Hi, I have looked into the history of the article and it looks like you are editwarring agaings pretty much everybody else. Please try to achieve a consensus on the talk page rather than edit war. IMHO, the question whether Joseph Stalin was a pure political MotSU or a Political/Army one does not deserve such a persistent edit warring Alex Bakharev (talk) 05:31, 19 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

AfD nomination of Wu Xiang (Ming General) edit

 

An editor has nominated Wu Xiang (Ming General), an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wu Xiang (Ming General) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 01:29, 2 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Browning BAR edit

 

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Browning BAR, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 05:02, 19 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

please stop the move edit

I noticed that you moved James Soong to Soong Chuyu and then cut and paste the its content to Song Chuyu. This violates two Wikipedia's policies: 1) article should use common name, which in this case should be James Soong; 2) don't rename a page by cut and paste. I have requested to move Soong Chuyu back to James Soong. You may discuss at Talk:Soong Chuyu. Thank you for your understanding. --Neo-Jay (talk) 14:31, 25 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Notability of Matt Morris (entrepreneur) edit

 

A tag has been placed on Matt Morris (entrepreneur) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

Statism in Showa Japan edit

Hi,

during your move to change the discussion page of Statism in Showa Japan to Japanese Fascism, you erased all the earlier comments and evaluation...

WP:Sources edit

Hi Staygyro, greetings. I've noticed your additions to Sudanese Armed Forces in these recent weeks. I really appreciate your help expanding this article and bringing it up to date. However, I have just had to remove one of your recent edits - this one. WP:BURDEN says that the person who added the information needs to provide evidence (WP:Reliable sources) that the information is accurate. I've just rechecked the IISS Military Balance 2011, and it shows no Type 96 main battle tanks in service with the SAF. Please readd the entry once you have a source. Kind regards, Buckshot06 (talk) 20:15, 21 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Ma Yuan edit

I read the article on Ma Yuan. Towards the end it is mentioned that some people schemed to tarnish his name, and Emperor Guangwu was led into believing the accusations against Ma Yuan, and subsequently stripped Ma of his fief and title of marquess. I was curious if Emperor Guangwu (or his successors)ever came to know the truth regarding Ma Yuan. Was Ma Yuan given the respect and honor he deserved later on? It'd be great to know about this chapter of this great military maestro's life. Thanks for putting up an article on him.

intermediate cartridge edit

do you realize that you are trying to change a fact that everyone accept except you? facts don't change just because you want them to change. - Avatar896 16:31, 18 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Yes, facts are dependent upon figures and statistics, so give me a proper source or statement that supports the statistics you added. Then we will be able to trust the reliable statistics that wikipedia gives.

Adding personal opinions to an ENCYCLOPEDIC article is not valid either. Your edit violated WP:NOR.

By the way, I actually gave my reason, when i opened the "debate", saying that they had enough energy to be categorized as intermediate cartridge. - Avatar896 19:16, 19 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Which is simply isn't true. Look at the page on Taylor KO Factor. Have you done TKO calculations for these munitions? and compared them to GENUINE intermediate munitions?Staygyro (talk) 23:18, 19 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

By who or what? Then by what authority do you designate cartridges? "Popular arguement is NOT a valid debate tactic". What makes you think that TKO factor is the determining factor for cartridge classification? What makes you think that you have the permission to say what is wrong or right? Does anyone else or source even support your statement? Do you think you can just put anything you want on wikipedia?

I already read your answer on your talk page btw. - Avatar9n 14:46, 25 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • For one, There are several ways of measuring stopping power, such as momentum and KE, but these do not consider the importance of bore diameter, which is very important in stopping power, so that makes the TKO the best formula there is for measuring stopping power. Other formulae, Thorniley Factor and the Hatcher Factor, all of which factors in the bore, the velocity and the mass of the bullet, all lead to similar results with regards to the topic discussed, i.e. the fact that the 5.56x45mm, 5.45x39mm and the 5.8x42mm have similar values to each other, but markedly different to REAL immediate rounds like the 7.62x39mm, the 6.8mm SPC, the 7.92 Kurz, the .280 British and the Japanese 6.5mm Arisaka.
  • For two, where is the source or figures to support the "popular assertion"? Staygyro (talk) 15:38, 25 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Edit summaries edit

Hi! User:Hijiri88 here (for some reason I am unable to login no matter how I try), I noticed your recent edits to a page on my watchlist. In the future, you should refrain from making page moves suddenly and by yourself unless you give a rationale on the talk page or in your edit summary. If, as appears to have happened here, you make a mistake and immediately self-revert, you should also note that somewhere, preferably in your edit summary.

I spent about two minutes trying to figure out what it was you had done because it really was not clear from your edits. (Although part of that was because the email notification system doesn't work correctly with parenthetical disambiguators, at least on my email provider, and I was misdirected to a page you didn't edit.)
