Tibet again

When the template was added two days ago [1], no consensus was made on the talk page Have a nice day--219.79.120.208 02:16, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

It is you who comment: "all means discuss on the talk page". So tell me, when User:SwedishZeta add this POV template two days ago, have anyone ever discussed this great change? Have you?

I dont know what it is if its not double standards. --219.79.120.208 02:38, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm tired of the editing of the Tibet article aren't you. I think its about time we requested a partial locking of it ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 09:19, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

I've spoken to several admin -we'll wait to see what they suggest. You'll need to revert again - we appear to have lost the neat infobox agaaaaiinnn!! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 17:58, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

I haven't heard a thing yet unfortuntely. You'd think these people woudld have lives and find something better to do that keep adding it every day wouldn't you!!! i've asked admin but no reply yet ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 16:09, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

I've made an official request -ahould be approved in a few hours -you'd better revert again before it is locked ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 20:26, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

I think a semi is OK - I have noted it will need to be permanent - asking them to look at the ridiculous history of the page. most of the problems arise from unregistered or new users. we should be able to discuss change with more established users -its one less thing to have to keep bothering about!! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 20:37, 14 July 2007 (UTC).

I'm very surprised it was declined. Did he bother to check edits before July 2007? There are countless edits. Ah well you can't say I didn't try ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 22:10, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Protection in the Argentinian article

Why wasn't the article protected in the way it was until three weeks ago and as it was for agreement in the talk page for like a year. Aren't we protecting vandalism??. I just reverted the text to the previous one!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by Snowhite1985 (talk • contribs) 02:04, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Argentina

Thanks for trying to work this out. The demographics issue is a fight without end and without rewards. I've been trying to ignore it and I've thought of ways of stopping it in a definitive way, but the only way would be a full protection for an indefinite time, which I won't (and by policy, can't) apply. We'll see if this calms down; at least the semi-protection will stop anonymous and sockpuppet edits. If only we could have a serious discussion without idiots stepping in... —Pablo D.

Hi there

I have noticed you on Wikiproject:football and making edits to Argentine football articles. Could you help me get this deleted, he's definately never played professional football in Argentina and I dont think he's played in the UK at any notable level: Nick Gindre also I m not sure that Juan Manuel Buzzi and Daniel Hernán Falco meet notability either.

I could you nominate them for deletion if you feel they are non-notable, I got stick for not doing it properly last time. Kind Regards King of the North East 23:37, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

As a reward fot your helpful attitude I offer you this Barra-Bravas possibly the most comprehensive football hooligan site in world football, its in Spanish though which may or may not be a problem. Cheers.King of the North East 23:55, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Hello Tangerines, I didn't revert your edits, you must have made them while I was editing as there was an edit conflict when I saved my changes, which is why it looks like they were reverted...do you want to do what you have to do (I would but I am crap with references!) and then let me know when you have finished so this problam doesn't happen in the future? Cheers, GiantSnowman 17:45, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey Up

Most of your edits on Argentine football have been good, we really need to sort something out for Argentine football, the coverage is really recentist, hardly any of the great players from before the 80s have articles. Also people keep adding and removing players from the current squads without using the players in and players out subheadings and adding seemingly made up players. The Argentine Primera is miles behind even League 2 in sunny England in terms of the number of players with articles and the quality of team articles. There has been discussion of forming Wikiproject:Argentine football, would you be interested in trying to get it set up? If so we can keep track of when squads have been updated, players needing articles, good online source material, Argentine players playing abroad, what needs to be done etc. Let me know if you're interested and we'll bring it up on Wikipedia:Argentina-related regional notice board. Regards, King of the North East 22:24, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorry to intrude. This is an important issue. I am all for creating Wikiproject:Argentine football. Let me know how can I help. Also want to thank both of you for your work with Argentine football. -- Alexf(t/c) 22:31, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Right,

I've started work on building the project page, (I've just assumed that I will get enough support) but I'm clueless about tagging and assessment (I just create and improve articles) we need something like this Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Football in England articles by quality statistics. I'm also going to need some help with designing a logo. You can see what I've done so far here: User:King of the North East/WPAF. I think it would be best if we get most of the components designed before we launch the project, what do you think? regards King of the North East 23:40, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Ive launched Wikipedia:WikiProject Argentine football its not completely set up, it needs work on the assesment tools, I've asked for help on that. Feel free to add your signature and edit the page. King of the North East 19:17, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Argentine football

Hi, yeah we still need a nice logo and a userbox, I dont go in for them myself but some people do so we should have one. Feel free to have a go at designing them if you want. I have reorganised the teams in the list so the Primera contains next seasons teams by the way. I'm trying to work out who went where in the lower divisions at the moment. Regards,King of the North East 22:24, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Userbox looks good, this is coming on quite nicely. If you can think of anyone who would be interested in joining you could give them a shout on their talk page. Keep up the good work, King of the North East 22:56, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

I posted your new userbox to my page. Nice job. Advertise it in the Arg Football project page for newcomers to use it if they wish. -- Alexf(t/c) 23:06, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

If you cared...

You would have done something already about the English people article. Taking the middle ground, not really, I think. Wiki-Ed is a committed partisan of TharkunColl. I am not being impartially restrained from blessing the article with NPOV. Either respond to my complaints, or your position is meaningless. TharkunColl has a POV violation preference for the article. You enforce his version. You are of no help. Lord Loxley 02:51, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

All right then. I was just trying to get your attention, perhaps to incite a more vigourous response. Cassiterides is already a feature of Wikipedia, wikilinked where necessary. Simply incorporating it into the article, by no means should confound the reader. I however, find the term "Romano-Briton" to be simplistic and not explanatory. Of course, the section on the Britannic heritage of the English people should be expanded. I am pleased that one of the new editors to the article has finally understood this. Beforehand, the article just bloviated on the Saxon nature of the English. I know by heart that I am more than Wessex, even if my recent ancestors are from Somerset, Dorset and Devon. I am the least biased person with regards to this, putting aside my family because of the Thomas Hardy stereotypes. I don't want to stimulate my ego by taking advantage of what is taken for granted about Englishmen. Lord Loxley 21:01, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

I have no problem with your statement about the section title. I'm merely putting emphasis on the fact that it must be left in the section, if not the title. The old title was similarly odd. Lord Loxley 22:51, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

If you want to save the skewed article, by all means do so. I have no interest keeping Wikipedia free from self-aggrandizing, Victorian bigots. My tolerance does not extend to the intolerant throwbacks. Lord Loxley 23:43, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, Wiki-Ed has continued flaming and I have replied once again. It is so easy to assess the wrong of him and TharkunColl. It is impossible for them to repent. That is why this is an impasse. Lord Loxley 16:16, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

assessment

Hi,

Nice to see you doing some tags, but I think we need to get the importance issues sorted.

I would say a player like Leonardo Pisculichi who has no major titles must be low.

I would say something like

• 1 league title or fewer as player or manager = Low

• 2+ league titles, top level international title (Copa Lib, Copa America World Cup) =Mid

• 10+ titles or remarkable achievement (World Cup winning goal, world cup winning manager, club record top scorer or highest appearences for massive club like Boca, River Independiente) = High

We should try to avoid recentism so we dont end up like the English project Ruud van Nistelroij ,John Terry, Frank Lampard and Stevie G are High, Dixie Dean (mega goalscorer) is mid, Bobby Moore (England's only World Cup winning captain) is mid and Walter Winterbottom isnt even tagged.

What do you think?King of the North East 00:01, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm glad you agree, but feel free to argue your case if you ever disagree mate. I think there are very few players with wikipedia articles in english that havnt played at the top level. i think we could always tag average primera players as low until the day that there are multiple articles on players in the lower league. At least then we can determine which articles are more deserving of attention as it is now.King of the North East 00:18, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Maybe 1 lge title = mid would be fairer. so we could have

• 1 Low = Undecorated players
• 2 Mid = Decorated players, international footballers, league topscorer, top 10 appearances for top level club, that kind of thing
• 3 High = High acheiver as before

Agree or no?King of the North East 00:18, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Have you read what I edited out? "More of a rallying call in a country's hour of need than the "death of a country" as suggested above IMHO." <-- That's not even encyclopaedic, never mind valid. Furthermore the sentence "The verse deals with the death of a certain "country" (WWI) mentioned in the first verse" is patently false.

The Historic Counties edits you've made and reinstated after their reversion

I've reverted these. The source you gave did not verify that numerous instances of moved signs had taken part, merely that there was an intention to move some signs in County Durham. Not the same thing at all! If there are "numerous references" on the countrywatch site, you should include one which exactly verifies the claim you are making. If you cannot find one or more that do so, then the supposed "fact" should not be added.  DDStretch  (talk) 17:33, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Sorry. I got mixed up with the websites. However, rather than use weasel words, it is better to use the exact figures and make the claims be accurate. I hope I have now made the appropriate changes. I have made the changes regarding the claim about 80, which is not backed up by the cited source.  DDStretch  (talk) 17:56, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

I typed in an answer and didn't see your later edits to the message. The claims you seemed to be making were encapsulated in the reversions you thought should be made. That you thought they needed reinserting suggested to me that you accepted them. Sorry if that was a misunderstanding.  DDStretch  (talk) 17:59, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your messages. I do want to apologise and withdraw any statements I made about you using weasel words, and making substantive claims in that article, rather than merely trying to sort it out. I acted rather hastily, and so I need to apologise. My only explanation is that I have had a number of wrangles with some Countrywatch advocates who distort facts and edit in a non NPOV way. I have been away for a while, and came back to see the recent edits and jumpedf to a conclusion I now see is wrong. Once again, my apologies.  DDStretch  (talk) 21:22, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Joe Smith

I was considering making an article on his career at Blackpool, since he is the club's longest-serving manager, with details on each season such as the team's league and cup performances, as well as his signings and sales. Reckon it would pass notability? - Dudesleeper · Talk 12:16, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

But would you just go into detail on his years at Blackpool in his current article, or make another article entitled, for example, Joe Smith (the Blackpool years)? I wouldn't want his article to become too Blackpool-centric, you see. - Dudesleeper · Talk 17:09, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Postal Counties

Yes, I share (a little) concern with Tony Bennett's contributions - I am a little concerned that he may overlook the "point" of Wikipedia itself and could use it as a soapbox. But let's assume good faith and see what happens.

With regards to Postal Counties (as a rather shamed former Royal Mail Operational Manager), they were actually abolished as part of the policy review of 1995/1996. These "previous" fixed counties used are now known within the business as the "former postal counties". People who are affectionate of using the historic county boundaries in a geographic frame of reference (though they are more often refering to the Administrative counties of England but aren't aware of it), often try to cite that "many/some people/organisations still use them on their "official address" (though not only is it not their official address, it's never quantified, and thus a breach of WP:RS). However what we should consider is that Saddleworth's postal county is Lancashire (and post town of OLDHAM), whilst Liverpool's is Merseyside, Croxton Kerrial's is Lincolnshire and Stokesley's is Cleveland (!) etc etc; the postal counties were full of descrepencies, and didn't align to any county system other than their own, and I'm very much opposed to them (dare I even say philosophically opposed) being used to assert the greater or lesser cultural status of former/current/traditional/vice/ceremonial/administrative/registration/shire/metropolitan counties in articles as a means of "point scoring", flexible addressing or no flexible addressing. Hope you share my view on this. Jza84 00:29, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Quite. I hold a personal opinion about this man, and don't want it to affect how I treat him as a contributor let's just say! He is new to Wikipedia and may need some time to adjust - and afterall, we shouldn't bite the newcomers!

I should imagine that this gentleman, as a busy politician, won't (or at least shouldn't) have a great deal of time to contribute to the project, and thus if he becomes a distruptive editor, the effects will be minimal. Also, as a high-profile (or semi-high-profile) person, I think he'd be wise enough not to excert any abusive or distruptive contributions. Let's see what happens - I think between us we'll be okay here.

On another note, I've trying to promote the UK Geography WikiProject. As you seem take an interest in this subject, would you consider being a participant (it's in danger of being closed in my view). Jza84 00:59, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Historic counties of England

Hello there. I've added some information in the above article as well as raising two issues on its discussion page. Since you recently did a lot of editing to the article, I'd be happy if you could cast your eye over them and see whether it first in with rest. The issue is an important one regarding the northern border of Cheshire at the time of Domesday Book. There may be a bit more to add from the VCH (Victoria History of the County of Cheshire) which might explain a bit more why the misunderstanding came about (apparently, a possible matter of economy in binding the pages together in the Domesday Book added to the idea that Cheshire owned part of south Lancashire at the time.) I think the map may have influenced things, as there would be a reluctance to have bits of England at the time which were not clearly in any county, but that last bit is just a supposition on my part, and should not be part of any encyclopedia entry.  DDStretch  (talk) 15:08, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Geoff Horsfield

You did some good cleanup on Geoff Horsfield, but I'm confused as to why you have added all those redundant parameters to the citations. None of the articles in question have a named author or co-author, 'pages' is not relevant for a web-based report, 'work' isn't really required (you could have work=BBC Sport and publisher=BBC put this doesn't really add anything), and while you could have language=English, this would seem unnecessary in an article about an English player who has only ever played in England, referenced by articles all in English. Is it a standard in Wikipedia to have all parameters included, even if they are to remain blank? Just curious. Cheers. --Jameboy 10:55, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

tag location

Hi, I thought that only section tags go into sections while the article tags go to the top of the page so they could serve it's purpose. Is there a Wikipedia guideline that can substantiate your revert? Avala 19:48, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I usually forget about the edit summary but will think about it in the future. And about the tag, someone should verify if it is really needed as it was placed in February 2007, though article of that size definitely needs more than 76 references.

Issues with the Alice Domon article

Added the reference tags... I was translating perhaps more literally than I should have been from a well-written article Spanish version of the same article. Your general clean-up edits were a definite improvement. However, as a new user, I remain more or less unclear on Wikipedia policy regarding foreign names and quotes... in what situation should I quote/name and then put the English translation in parenthesis, or just translate the whole formal title? For example, the Wiki articles on Ley de Punto Final and Ley de Obedencia Debida retain their Spanish titles as their formal names, which is why I left them in Spanish in the article. Desaparecidos, for example, is a term with specific cultural context that (at least to me) seems valid to remain in Spanish (although qualified with an explanation).

"-shire" counties

I changed the county mentioned as an example of a newly-created unit because the shires of "English Mercia" (Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire and Cheshire) are better examples of this than those of "Danish Mercia" (Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and the odd one out, Rutland). The latter group had a clear direct precedent in the territories of the burhs which formed the basis of Danish organisation in the areas of Mercia under their control (the burh of Stamford corresponding to Rutland). The precise extent of each of these individual territories is unknown, so it is not clear how far the subsequent shire organisation adapted the Danish boundaries, but they were based on the same towns and therefore at least the general outline of that organisation was clearly there beforehand.

Hi, you left a message for this user on their user page - it really should have been on his talk page. Just wanted to let you know. — Timotab ^{Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!)} 02:17, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Maybe I came across wrong. I didn't mean to imply you didn't know where it should have been, I was letting you know as I thought you might not have realised your mistake :) — Timotab ^{Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!)} 02:24, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I see you have undone all the work I did last week. I don't think you have the right to do this. What is the point of me adding all the information on my site to Wikipedia, when a simple link will suffice.

I am pretty angry that you suggest that I am using link spam. Can you tell me where else you can get a list of all sites in your area? My database is a valuable resource which can be used without payment and by taking out links to my site you are depriving others of this resource.

Why didn't you remove the links to other sites which list monuments. Is it because my site has a commercial aspect to it and was funded privately. If this is to, then this amounts to censorship with you as the sole judge and jury. If you bothered to look at my site you would see that there is lots and lots of information which is freely available. What annoys me the most is that I have paid a lot of money for collecting the information.

Finally, the database is used all over the world by academics and Universities which suggests its importance.

If you go around doing this kind of thing to other people's sites then why don't you let them contact you by email? My personal view is that YOU are vandalising the pages by removing stuff you think is spam. I've contacted Wikipedia with my concerns. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chris Kutler (talk • contribs) 12:50, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

I think you need to differentiate between promoting one's site soley for personal profit and promoting one's own site to enhance the information held in Wikipedia. The former is the reason why non of us like spam, the latter is the reason for adding links.

I recently wrote a paper on GIS and the internet. The subsequent seminar I gave to academics from all over the world was very well received. Are you saying that I shouldn't include a reference to my paper in the Wikipedia GIS-related pages because it is my own paper - even though my work was one of the first projects of its kind?!?

I think we need to rethink the policy on review. You also removed the link from the Wikipedia page on Placenames. My website contains one of the largest placenames databases freely available on the internet and is searchable by placename element. Results in the list link to maps and aerial photos of the places. I cannot find another 'placename' site with such rich functionality. Yet, you removed this link for no other reason than you THOUGHT it was spam. I am pretty sure that you didn't even check the link, which is why I am angry and why I have suggested that you are vandalising certain Wikipedia pages.

The question now, is are you going to remove the links if I put them back in again. If you are, then it would be better if you can give sound reasons for doing so. Yes, I did see that you had notified me on my Talk page, however, you didn't give sound reasons for removing all the links en masse.

I take your points and bearing this in mind can I ask why you have not removed the link at the bottom of the Monuments wikipage to Website of Monuments and Sculptures in UK. In my view it a similar site. It is clear to me that you have got it into your head that I am a spammer and I am getting quite annoyed with your reasons for excluding my links. Have you any speficic archaeological training which enables you to decide which links are relevant? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chris Kutler (talk • contribs) 16:51, 1 October 2007

Hooliganism

I see that you are involved in editing the hooliganism pages. I am going either to expand section on Polish hools or start a new article. Anyway, I know a lot about this phenomenon, but major problem is lack of English sources. What would you suggest? Greetings Tymek 18:58, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

I do appreciate your help, good job. I will try to find sources and asap I will expand the article on Polish hools. I have seen a lot of this stuff with my own eyes, and frankly speaking, I could write an article without checking any sources. BTW Green Street Hooligans is a good movie, but Polish lads had a lot of fun watching it as some situations are totally unrealistic. Greetings Tymek 19:15, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Will you do me a favor and add those groups, with references? I am still having problems with these technical things. Greetings Tymek 17:18, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

No problemo. Will you please look at Football Hooliganism in Poland? Tymek 17:23, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, this article still needs a lot of work, I would like to add more info on major disturbances, including lower divisions. Also, I will add more info on alliances between firms. BTW if you like this stuff, you should check some flags of Polish fans, a lot of them are great Tymek 18:07, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

It is me again. I have noticed that you are using some of the sources provided by me. However, don't be angry if I correct some info, as many journalists and the so-called experts have no idea about Polish scene, and they often mess facts. Greetings .

BTW here [2] you can check movies of Polish ultras, here [3] - flags of Polish firms, browse all pages as this is the forum. Enjoy Tymek 00:48, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

OK, sorry Tymek 01:18, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Did you know

On 11 October, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article football hooliganism in Poland , which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Lancashire categorisation

Please note there is usually no need to add an article to a category if is already in a subcategory of that category. For example, few articles should be directly within Category:Geography of Lancashire as they ought to be in one of its subcategories instead. For places in the Fylde, it is sufficient to do the following:

• places in Blackpool: put in a subcategory of Category:Blackpool
• places in Fylde Borough: put in Category:Fylde (borough)
• places in Wyre Borough that are also on the Fylde: put in Category:The Fylde and Category:Wyre
• places in Preston District that are also on the Fylde: put in Category:The Fylde and a subcategory of Category:Preston
• places in Lancaster District that are also on the Fylde: put in Category:The Fylde and a subcategory of Category:Lancaster
