Jellyfish. Hello Shirik. I am leaving you this message because i feel that you have reverted my editing to the Wikipedia page, Jellyfish, unfairly. I understand you may have your personal reasons for reverting it but I am doing nothing but letting people know the truth. P.S: Sorry about your User Page... I tend to act on impulse.

Note on the above Personal References: There is a difference between (1) a judgement (2) analysis (3) opinion. I believe in this entire discussion I have always maintained a seperation between all, and have never offerred any personal points of view unless requested to do so. As fo Stokely Carmicheal I beleive I was being generous after rereading the transcripts, as does very much sound like a Nite at the Improv, and kind when one considers he was being accused of treason in 1967. Somwhere I read that wiki had enough technical contributors and now it is being expanded into the humanities; perhaps technical contributors when engaging in debate and discussion of matters outside their fields need to learn some of the basics of discourse.

"No ideas. I'm only an unpaid, voluneer editor and amature researcher...not a copyright lawyer. But it is fairly certain neither the BBC nor AP ""own"" the photo. CrownCopy was the best I could come up with on short notice. But go ahead and delete it now that it's off the mainpage..looks like you and your deletionists friends are going to regardless. Why cant you simply retag something instead of deleting it? I dont understand. Arent we supposedly building a free multimedia pedia here, not tearing one down? Yes, I hate copywrong paranoia. But I hate pointless policy enforcement and the ""where there's any doubt- delete"" mentality even more. "

PowerDvD Hello, I saw the talk page of PowerDvD tagged as CSD G8 as you deleted the article per G11. The article has been around since 2003 and if you review it you shoudl find versions that aren't pure spam. So you may want to reconsider this and rather bring it to AfD.

Hi Awadewit! As a new Wikipedian, it is reassuring for me to see a more veteran member of Wikipedia echo a few of the thoughts that I have been having regarding a) how un-definitive of a bibliography I posted and b) how to go from there to actually do the work towards getting an actual definitive account of Tolkien scholarship and improving the Wikipedia articles. I think your approach sounds great! Based on what you've said though, would it be correct for me to extrapolate that it sounds like you won't be actually joining us in the collaboration given your time being occupied with other projects? We would greatly appreciate your help, if you have the time and/or any Tolkien resources handy. So please feel free to pitch in if that is the case. However, I completely understand if you're busy with other things, and am already very grateful with the help that you have already provided. Many thanks,

" Help to revert I put a lot of multiple ""citation needed"" tags on Miss Universe article for the purpose of improving the verifiability since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia which is based on reliable sources not truth. I can see that you have reverted the changes made by an unknown user to Miss Universe, however, it did not go as far as the last edit in the article history on the 24th of December 2007 (05:24, 24 December 2007 by Alice) containing the multiple needed citation tags edit that I have put. I need your help, if possible, to revert to the edit where I put the multiple needed citation tags, and also your opinion on the matter. I have put the explanation in the discussion page of Miss Universe article why there's a need to put the multiple needed citation tags to the existing info about Miss Universe. Honestly, I'm not proficient enough to do the revert when there's a lot of intermediate edits. Thanks. "

" Yeah, I didn't get far in the game. It was fun to play, but I think either it froze up on me during play, or the Playstation did...I can't remember the reason I stopped playing it. I love Short Circuit 2; the first was good, but for some reason the second had more charm...even if it was a poorer made movie. I was never big into Disney. I think my favorite as a child were The Lion King and Rescurers Down Under-maybe even The Great Mouse Detective. Too much singing for my tastes. I'll take Nightmare/Christmas over The Little Mermaid. Speaking of which, Nightmare/Christmas was just released in 3-D. Toy Story was awesome...lol, I was just reciting some dialogue to the first one two nights ago. I was thinking about buying them. I don't remember seeing the second film all the way through. (Contact me) "

Don't Waste Your Time Folks Sherurij considers himself the God or Emporer of all things known. He baits you into anger and then retorts that you are the one who is unjustly accusing him of something that he doesn't understand! He is deliberate and a meglo-maniac! He will edit your edits and take credit for his own insights, while demeaning you of yours. He will lower you to angery comments and then smugly respond that he said no such thing or that you misunderstood! He is all things to himself and you are all things for his amusement except Super Mario 3. He has no peer. He edits without concensus and complains when someone else does. He uses pointless analogies and tries to get you to fit square pegs into round holes. He is a magician of the mind where he believes he can create an illusion to throw you away from your thoughts and in the process, convert you to his POV. Yes, he is a piece of work, but what it is, I hope we never find out!!!

" No, I meant if the same person comes back to editing from the same IP after the block expires you can't prove that it's the same person, so it would be quite impossible to enforce the sort of indef ban which Nil Einne proposes. (BTW, I am still the same person who was blocked for that outburst and I do NOT object to the 2-week block itself because it serves me right for what I said, but I do strongly object to Nil Einne's proposal because: (1) it can't be enforced, as I've just pointed out; (2) it constitutes double jeopardy after the length of a ban has been reduced, you can't increase it again without further wrongdoing on the banned user's part; and (3) there's evidence of hostile animus behind Nil Einne's proposal when making his case for an indefinite ban even after the block expires, he specifically cited ""highly pro-American (& American right wing) POV (and other stuff) in their posts (which also seems to be implied in their novels)"" (for the record, Nil Einne himself has a track record of promoting a third-worldist, anti-colonialist, and on at least one occasion specifically anti-American POV). 24.5.122.13 "

Re: Hello Please let this free image, Image:Angel Locsin.jpg exist.Thankyou { } I don't think so; I understand that you want to help, but you're doing it in a disruptive way in order to illustrate your point. Your fanaticism and fanboyism of Angel Locsin doesn't apply here, as Wikipedia editors are expected to provide neutral and favorable contributions, not turn the article into a fan site. Any more and a block, or worse, a ban can be imposed on you for your disruption. Thank you.

Then I'd be reverted by Emeraude (who reverted me accidentally but reverted himself). It's clear that the dailies aren't saying that, at least the ones I found. If you want to go to RSN and argue that we should use that despite Reuters, the Guardian, etc saying UAF was only one of the groups, feel free. And new sources may appear, but at the moment I can only find that one weekly saying UAF organised it.

Please stop changing this article the article about Americans for Legal Immigration PAC is under attack from some wiki moderators that want to remove all positive information about the group and fill it with only negative information about the group. This is abusive and dishonest. Please look at the edit records and the talk page to see where some are removing citations and sources and then turning around and asking for the article to be deleted because it lacks citations and sources! This is abusive and we dont need another Wiki editor jumping in with the others trying to vandalize that page and remove many sources added by many editors years ago. Thanks for your understanding.

" Nonsense I saw this here: Italian it is not an agglutinative language as is German,... And I found your name below it. As a linguist, I know exactly that German - as all the other germanic languages (English, Dutch asf.) - is NOT an agglutinative language. It has a complex inflection system, more complex than the Italian one, what means that it is the complete opposite of agglutinative languages. The word ""Südtirol"" isn't just a putting-together of ""south"" and ""tyrol"". It is a word, that exists because of a historical developement by combining the ideas of being south and a part of Tyrol. So, it makes every sense to translate it as Sudtirolo, my linguistic friend... PS: It seems you have taken the wrong way to patriotism. Be careful! By an anonymous South Tyrolean."

Sorry but I don't follow you at all. How are scientific discoveries made in the UK not relevant to a section on science and technology in the UK? How are British writers not relevant to a section on British literature? How are British musicians not relevant to a section on British music? How are British philosophers not relevant to a section on British philiosophy? A few examples of Hollywood films based upon British stories and events seems to me highly relevant to the cinema section, particularly since the British and American film industries are so closely connected. If your comment is that these sections could be better written, then perhaps I can agree. All of your comments regarding content I completely disagree with however.

"::Point well taken, however, I agree that writing articles is not about a ""balance"" of positive and negative information, it really has nothing to do with a balance. It has to do with neutrality, which is the point. WP:UNDUE: Neutrality requires that the article should fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by a reliable source, and should do so in proportion to the prominence of each. I know this doesn't change anything. Because there is almost nothing neutral about any one persons Wikipedia article. Thats just how it is. And thats the last thing I will say. "

"::My intent is not to edit war, only to add an important paragraph or two to the article. Americans know all too well that our Native Americans weren't treated right in the old days (and still aren't in many cases) but that is no excuse to whitewash historical information be it a ""Featured Article"" or not. This same newspaper is already being relied on as a good and reliable source in the article (see the quote box). It is not good editing to conveniently leave out information that someone believes is not ""in line"" with the article when in fact the added information is highly relevant to Irataba's overall story. If any portion of what I added is objectionable, I am willing to compromise by having some of it removed but not all, and I am referring to the ""big Ingin"" passage at the end of the paragraph. That could be removed as perhaps objectionable to some readers and editors even though it is a direct quote from the source. "

The article regarding yadavs need changes in introduction various scholars have agreeded that yadavs are chandravanshi khastriyas and some have not. The following link can be used to verify that yadavs are khastriyas. http://books.google.com/books?id=RfdtUUnVQLQC&pg;=PA388&dq;=Yadavs+OBC+kshatriyas&hl;=en#v=onepage&q;=Yadavs%20OBC%20kshatriyas&f;=false http://www.sishri.org/velir.html ( This website clearly mentions in some parts of india Yadavs are khastriyas ). http://storyofkannada.blogspot.com/2008/05/origin-of-seuna-dynasty.html Also till 1400 AD there were dynasties which claimed that they are yadavs. The descendants of this dynasties still would be living in India. Also the article mentions that only from 19th century yadavs are trying to raise their status. Its wrong. In 1400 AD a dyansty claimed they are yadavs ( chandravanshi ). These people cannot disappear just like that. proof some scholars claim yadavs as khastriyas. http://books.google.com/books?id=RfdtUUnVQLQC&pg;=PA388&dq;=Yadavs+OBC+kshatriyas&hl;=en#v=onepage&q;=Yadavs%20OBC%20kshatriyas&f;=false book We and our administration By K. C. Brahmachary page 388 many scholars agree yadavs as khastriyas and some scholars dont. I request kindly to correct the introduction. please dont neglect these valuable points. So far there is like three books which mention yadavs as khastriyas

"Can anybody support the contention that the Tropic of Capricorn passes through England? Anything I'm missing here? Territories, commonwealths, J.K. Rowling's secret volcano hideout, anything?

"::::::::You incorrectly infer from the agreement to include other pictures that all editors have agreed to delete the photo you propose to delete. There was no consensus to delete the photo. There was your demand that that the photo was unrepresentative and there were other editors acting to find photos to assuage your demands by providing other photos that would meet your demands. That doesn't imply agreement with your demand to delete a factual photo. It is not an explicit expression of consensus. At least on other editor involved in the discussion at that time - Tareq - is disputing your assertion of consensus and I am disputing your claims that the photo is ""unrepresentative"", the basis for deleting it, and the existence of your alleged consensus now. The picture of the Wall that you want to delete is very significant. It shows the ugliness of the Israeli wall. There is no rule that says photos must be representative. A photo is a factual representation of the facts. This is aone part of the wall. Deleting it is a form of cesorship of the reality of the Wall in at least some places. In any case, how is representativeness determined? Your opinion does not suffice. What percentage of the wall is fence and what percent is wall? What is the representative appearance in populated areas? What is considered a representative portion? What are the future final plans for the wall's appearance? The photo will be returned top the article without deleting any other photo. Adding information is preferable to deleting information. 17:44, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC) "

" excessive quotes from the work of particular authors in this article ok. Looking at it from another way, just looking at the footnotes, you have quoted excessively from some sources: Deitcher, David (Deitcher, David. ""Unsentimental Education: The Professionalization of the American Artist"".) ""Loran wrote his two article after Lichtenstein's first Pop exhibition in Los Angeles, which included the artist's life-sized versions of images from Loran's book."" (Deitcher, David. ""Unsentimental Education: The Professionalization of the American Artist"".) ""Portrait of Madame Cézanne and Femme au Chapeau, both of 1962, were among the first paintings in which Lichtenstein based an image directly on a picture by an illustrious predecessor, introducing the theme of art about art. Both are presented at two removes from the original. Cézanne's portrait of his wife is transposed, with significant but subtle alterations, from a diagram book, Cézanne Composition, published a quarter of a century earlier, Lichtenstein was amused by the oversimplified and paradoxical idea that a flat diagram consisting solely of thick black outline could be used to represent the Frenchmen's work, given Cézanne's insistence on eliminating contours from his paintings as incapable of suggesting the corporeal reality of the three-dimensional motif from which he was working."" (Deitcher, David. ""Unsentimental Education: The Professionalization of the American Artist"".) ""The contradictory character of the Pop object was central to an unusually lively and revealing debate late in 1963. It was Lichtenstein's earliest Pop paintings that provoked this controversy which led critic Brian O'Doherty (also an artist, under the name Patric Ireland) to identify completely new class of object: the 'handmade readymade.' Reviewing the artist's second Pop show in the New York Times, O'Doherty labeled him 'one of the worst artists in America.' Nonetheless, he also credited him with creating paintings that 'raised some of the most difficult problems in art.' O'Doherty took note of an argument that had just erupted in the art press: the September issues both of Art News and Artforum had run angry features about Pop art in general and Lichtenstein's work in particular."" (Deitcher, David. ""Unsentimental Education: The Professionalization of the American Artist"".) ""...Erle Loran, who had targeted two paintings by Lichtenstein, Portrait of Mme. Cézanne and Man with Folded Arms (both 1962), in order to excoriate some of the salient features of the new art. Each painting was a characteristically brazen blowup of a diagram from Loran's book Cézanne Composition, then twenty years old."" (Deitcher, David. ""Unsentimental Education: The Professionalization of the American Artist"".) ""Both Loran and O'Doherty thought it absurd that so many supporters of Pop were defending Lichtenstein by insisting that he 'transformed' rather than 'copied' his sources. Claiming that only an expert could discern the difference, O'Doherty found this hairsplitting quite beside the point. After all, it had been possible to classify direct appropriation as art since 1913, when that 'old master of innovation ,' Duchamp had 'started it all by setting up his readymades...and calling them art, leaving on us the burden of proof that they were not.' Both Loran and O'Doherty found the transformation alibi doubly annoying since it clinched the matter of Pop's high-cultural status by resorting to an altogether academic and contradictory dual defense. On one hand, Pop was art because it 'put a frame of consciousness around a major part of American life...we take for granted.' On the other, Pop was art because an artist like Lichtenstein transformed his sources 'like a good artist should'—a clichéd view of fine-art production."" (Deitcher, David. ""Unsentimental Education: The Professionalization of the American Artist"".) ""For Loran, the 'transformation' or 'copy' debate was spurious: since the Abstract Expressionists had ventured 'far beyond the process of transforming nature' to produce paintings that presupposed 'no conscious source but have an identity and imagery that is autonomous,' transformation—even were it detectable in Lichtenstien's art— could only constitute aesthetic regression."" (Deitcher, David. ""Unsentimental Education: The Professionalization of the American Artist"".) ""For different reasons, Lichtenstein himself shunned the transformation defense."" Coplans, ed. (Coplans, ed.) ""The idea of using a closely linked subject matter within a unified style of treatment is obviously suggested in the various paintings deriving from modern masters. Man with Folded Arms and Portrait of Madame Cézanne (both 1962) are quotations of outline diagrams by Erle Loran explaining Cézanne's compositional methods and are similar in the linear black-and-white handling of the imagery.""

" Heh, I guess I jumped right in. Anyway, I find two logical flaws in your argument. First: just because some Bulgarian editors may be misinterpreting or abusing the category system, why should we? Second: what if every article were subjected to your line of thinking? For instance, what if someone decided that Category:Communes in Cluj County was too inaccessible a place for Apahida, and decided to add in Category:Geography of Romania, and then someone did the same for Iclod, and pretty soon, that category ended up with ~3000 entries? Well, for one, it would become pretty useless, don't you think? Which is why we have Category:Populated places in Cluj County, Category:Cluj County, Category:Geography of Transylvania (but not, incidentally, Category:Geography of Moldavia and Category:Geography of Wallachia). Everything in its proper place. Plus, there's an actual guideline meant to be followed: WP:CAT, which speaks of ""the general rule that pages are not placed in both a category and its subcategory"".

" Offensive images in article histories OK, everybody knows that featured articles are frequently vandalized, and one of the more common infantile tricks is to insert some image, usually a penis, in the featured article. These are always quickly reverted, but I wonder why the offensive images remain in the article's edit history. For example, somebody inserted a photo of masturbation in today's featured article on Joseph Smith, and it is still visible when you get back that far in the ""compare selected versions."" Isn't there a way to just indicate what the vandal did (as is done with the ID of the image), and to remove the actual image itself from the article's history? In general, that's a big problem with these ""selected versions"" in the article historythat things like this remain and aren't completely removed/disassociated with the article."

" Sorry, did Bastun just claim to be an outsider to this article?! Codswallop. Yes, I was sugesting Off2riorob was an outside opinion, since he'd never edited the article before. Are you suggesting that his opinion isn't valid because he posted before you, but if he was asked and he reiterated his previous comments that he'd then become an outside opinion? Have you actually read WP:NOTCENSORED? If you have, perhaps you could actually explain which part of it is relevant to your argument. You'll also find you've picked completely the wrong person to try that argument on in relation to this particular article, since I made the pages of El Reg in relation to a previous dispute where I was attempting to include well sourced details of Adams' rather colourful past. Naturally you might not have seen that, but a look in the talk page archives would have shown you the nature of the dispute. There is no attempt to ""censor"" this information from Wikipedia, it is currently sat in Gerry Adams Sr. without a problem. However there's no direct relevance to this article, since Adams states he has no recollection of being abused and wasn't aware of it until the 1990s. Why would we write about Gerry Sr. on the Liam Adams article, should it ever be created which I doubt will happen in the near future at least. That would be synthesis of the gravest order, attempting to imply a cause-effect link because one case of abuse and another when nobody has said Liam Adams was a victim of abuse by Gerry Sr. It would seem that Bastun is very much swimming against the tide of consensus, having failed to offer any cogent explanation as to exactly how this information is relevant to this particular article he's now making wild accusations of censorship.

I have more newspaper articles on my family history (and academic papers) than I can count - certainly more than are scraped together here. Those articles don't even begin to include the number of press articles covering off the family's Trust work over the last 17 years of charity work that has raised an accumulated total of just over £9m for various good causes. However, I don't do it for my own personal glory and a Wiki entry for such news coverage would be extremely vain. Not being an egostistical wannabe Z-lister, I hereby state quite categorically that I don't want one, and if anyone does create one, I shall remove it - someone's status in this World should be based on their contributions and merits, not getting their mugshot online with an attached CV. Oh, but I forgot, you are one of the contributors here so no doubt a friend or aquantance. As to the 'attacks' they seem to be people's personal views, not attacks, and when there appears to be common-denominator comments about the vanity of this entry, then I believe that there must be something in it. A lot of people have made complaints about Elonka's autocratic editing 'style' (if that is the word), so it's not just me. Still, birds of a feather flock together, eh!

" Well, I showed you that ""Kievan Rus"" is used in books more frequently than ""Ancient Rus"". How is this not ""convincimg""? Is the counting rigged? You may go check other encyclopedias and come back tell us what you find out. As to redirects, you are right. No rules prohibit creation of redirects from sensible titles. ""Sensible"" is pretty much inclusive and a redirect from Ancient Rus is alredy created. The types of redirects that are not allowed would not be created in good faith anyway. Under whatever name you think this may be found in English or whatever name you think the reader looking for this article might enter into a search string, redirect is always a good idea. What's not allowed are only redirects that are POV pushing through promotion of POV term or non-existing term. Like it's not OK to make Little Russian a redirect to Ukrainian and instead the redirect should be to Little Russia, an article about the etymology and usage of the term. You cannot also invent a term and start pushing it into usage by creating a redirect article under it. Most of the rest is not a problem. Ancient Rus redirect is certainly a good idea. "

Anti-Punk Ignorant The above user who commented that a user who removed info regarding the punk rock article is absolutely misguided. That user is me. I never once posted that alternative rock did not come from Punk. I suggest that you get your facts straight. What I said was, grunge is not punk. I have been a hard core punk and a neo-punk since 1979. Since the early '90's, I've been involved in trying to revive punk during the grunge period of the 90's decade (while separating ir from influences of grunge). I will be blunt and unapologetic again... Punk IS NOT grunge. Never has been and never will be. Obviously from your answer, you do not know anything about punk, its fashion, history, or its influences. Punk is a genre in and of itself. It didn't spring from anything known at the time it was born; it obviously didn't come from disco and it certainly was not influenced by hippy music. I should know, since I have almost 30 years experience as a punk, have conversed with the inner circle of the punk greats, and even made recommendations to them in the early 80's. This anti-punk clown therefore clearly does not know what he is talking about. He doesn't know anything even remotely relating to punk. He accused me of stating that punk did not come from alternative music. To correct you, I stated that punk IS NOT grunge. Don't make this same mistake again because it demonstates your low level of knowledge in this area and hugely dents your credibility. This shows that you do not like punk for some personal reason which wiki and I find very disturbing. Calm down. You are not correct in your statements.

" Notability. Saying that this building is ""second tallest building in the Spinningfields area"", is akin to saying I've got the tallest TV aerial on our street. It's hardly the thing that legends, or even notability, are made of. "

Westfield Penrith Hi I just removed your extensive list of stores. It's still in the history if you feel you have lost work. Such a list contradicts WP:NOT a directory. The article should discuss the key features that make this article stand out from any other shopping centre - and ideally, any other Westfield shopping centre. I suggest dropping by List of Westfield Group shopping centres in Australia and looking at the format, layout and content of other Westfield group articles. BTW. It's best to use a secondary source (newspapers etc) not corporate press releases / Westfield website / telephone directories. rrie

I think old name of this article (Magnus the Strong) is better, because Magnus was only pretender to crown. In all sources he is mentioned as pretender in time of civil war for Swedish crown, who controlled Götaland, but never as king of Götaland.

" I would bet a bottle of homeopathic potion (read: water) that there isn't a single real scientist who thinks that homeopathy has any effect outside of the placebo one (which I don't consider a real effect, but then again I'm not a shrink). It's like the Discovery Institute claiming that a ""scientist"" with a Ph.D. from Bill's Garage and School of Microbiology believes that Intelligent design really is science. It still amazes me that Homeopathy and Creationism both require magic to support their non-science. Meh. Talk• Contributions "

Hello Yintan Actually I have researched and know very well about 3 different sets of phonetics. These sets come from people who are world leaders in transcribing Thai into English. The pronounciation I have offered above is from Benjawan Poomsan Becker and it is spot on. This work has been going on for a long long time and is far superior to the IPA system (which 99% of people are not familiar with anyway) and superior to the RTGS system (outdated but still used unfortunately) because it has tonal marks and uses only English letters. The pronunciation I offer is a big improvement on what is out there at the moment and it is something that english speakers can follow easily.

" Looking around to see what's been going on, I hope you forgive me for saying that I don't believe you may be acting in good faith here yourself. Without getting dragged into this mess myself, the long and short of it is simply that you were quite recently involved in a dispute with -Ril-. Also, it sounds (""He would also have contacted those who actually worked in the area"") that you certainly have a vested interest in the topic as well (and for the last time, I don't CARE one way or the other on the topic, and I came across this on AfD as I'm sure others did). So, I'm still planning on removing that statement, but I would like to hear from someone not involved in all of this. I'll look into it on my own if you don't in the next few days. "

Movies are Canon. Take the Garlic Junior saga for example. Onio is only a joke. There are other parodies that have other super saiyans in it. Onio is more of a fan work done by Toriyama than an actual creation. Movies are part of the dragonball series. Onio should be removed. He doesn't match the dragonball continuity. Goku appeared in Robot Chicken but I don't hear you arguing about it. Lets just stick with the anime, movies, and dragonball series manga.

" Where do these concepts come from? The article was recently revised to say that Old Town is ""in Williamson County, near Franklin"" (no longer ""in"" Franklin) and that the mound complex ""is alongside the Harpeth River on what later became one branch of the Natchez Trace"" (no longer simply ""on the Harpeth River branch of the Natchez Trace""). I'm puzzled by these changes, which aren't sourced. My investigations (call them ""original research"") using online maps do indicate that Old Town is in northwestern Williamson County, near Franklin, but not inside the current city limits or even in the urban growth boundary. Thus, I think the geographic location is OK, even though sources have placed it ""in"" Franklin. Let me get this straight. You want to use insulting language about the edits, but then agree that they are factually correct. Where is the OR? I disagree that it is OR to state that the location is in Williamson County. Whether or not it is currently in the current city limits is a factual matter that I am not actually sure about, but in the historic sweep it is correct to say that the location is near Franklin (think of Franklin having been a small town at one time). It is ""near"" Franklin, meaning it is not in modern downtown Franklin. I see no OR. However, I can't agree with ""is alongside the Harpeth River on what later became one branch of the Natchez Trace"". First off, what is later than ""is""? It appears to me that the mound complex ""is"" alongside the Harpeth River and ""is"" on the Harpeth River branch of the Natchez Trace. I surmise that the intent was to say that the site was not on a branch of the Natchez Trace when the mound complex was built, but I don't buy that. First off, the previous version of the article never said that the mound complex was built on the Harpeth River branch of the Trace; it merely said that it's there now. Secondly, I'm not aware of any source indicating that the mound complex was not built on the Harpeth River branch of the Trace. Notwithstanding whatever the current version of the [[Natchez Trace[[ article, it's my understanding (based on diverse sources) that the Trace (which is an interconnected collection of trails, not a single trail) existed for centuries before white people laid eyes on Tennessee, and that archaeologists who have investigated Old Town assume that it was located where it is because of the river, the Trace, and the crossing of Brown's Creek. If the intent was to say that the Trace did not exist when the mound complex was built, I see that as a piece of WP:OR that's inconsistent with many sources. Those amendments to the article were in 2 edits, the main one with edit summary ""revise about assertion of location, avoiding unnecessary disclosure and avoiding synthesis (e.g. about 2 creeks being the same, not in a source AFAIK). Drop dup cat."". Funny you should be making accusations of original research. I think the wp:OR accusation should apply more strongly to the previous language, which included wp:OR in the form of synthesis (wp:SYNTH?) about which creek is what (and the synthesis ends up disclosing more about location than is necessary). I think that ""the Harpeth River branch of the Natchez Trace"" refers pretty clearly to that branch of the 1800's Natchez Trace, which served as path/roadway for return upstream of persons who had brought rafts or barges down the Mississippi to New Orleans. The other branch is known as the Ridge Route or something like that and is covered in a different NRHP listing. These two distinct branches are known in history and described in historical documents, including being described in Williamson County MRA and other documents that Orlady has read. To refer to the prehistoric mounds having been built along the 1800s-era historic ""Harpeth River branch of the Natchez Trace"" is wp:OR, wp:SYNTH, ahistorical, sloppy, generally bad, in poor taste, and whatever else sounds negative, more so than the language which replaced the original language. OR is bad. OR was removed by the edits. OR was not introduced by the edits. Yay! Glad we are all agreed. I am sure there are improvements to the language which can be made, but I would prefer not to argue small wording changes until the bigger article structure questions being discussed above are settled. Or until Orlady agrees to allowing a third party to judge on wording, and replies about participating in mediation to address the long pattern of conflict. ncram "

anthropomorphic bias == There appears to be some sensitivity with respect to this topic, which I think is due to an anthropomorphic bias. Dysgenics is a research topic in biology; the anthropological and sociocultural aspects are not central to the topic. The concerns listed in the heading paragraph belong lower in the text, as they apply only to the aspect of the term relating to homo sapiens. (and I want to add) The concept of dysgenics itself is really only at home in a discussion of genotype. Direct anthropomorphic considerations (of the sociopolitical aspects outlined in the article) are very crude constructions which do not hew to the precise biological use of the term. I think one danger is that, by focusing on the easily politicized extension of the term, we risk conflating an important biological concept with indirect sociological constructions. Next thing you know, biologists innocently researching fruit flies get implicated in fascism, eugenics, and gas chambers. So I agree that we need to make very careful use of these terms. These concepts, while connected to a degree, should be covered carefully. 137.186.41.143 ==

" Chinese communist scholars recently acknowledged its propagandism, which was widely broadcasted by media in Japan. ""Japanese large-scale invasion plans"", which was so often reverted here is baseless. See below. Director Jiang Li-feng, Institute of Japanese Studies, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, speaking to Japanese historians visiting China in early 2006. ""...I felt scolars in Japan must learn much more about Chinese history. For example, someone talked about Tanaka Memorandum earlier. But actually, it has increasingly become a mainstream opinion among Chinese historians to think that Tanaka Memorandum in fact did not exist. Do you have knowledge in Japan, about such achievement of ours in history research?"" - Japanese magazine ""Seiron"" April 2006. "

P.S. Oh, by the way, Burt Rutan used Ashlar’s Cobalt program to design SpaceShipOne. That alone is sufficient to establish that the program has sufficient notability for inclusion in this list and to have an article on it on the project. Only someone with extraordinarily limited understanding of CAD programs would think Burt Rutan would be using some sort of backwater CAD program few have heard of to design a space ship. And, since I actually have some well-earned gray hairs on my head and had used a wide variety of CAD programs before the Internet became all the rage, I long-ago read in an actual magazine (think: “Internet made out of trees”) about how Burt Rutan used Ashlar Vellum (the wireframe 3D predecessor of Cobalt) to design the Voyager plane that flew non-stop around the world.

" Only if a character's age is important to the plot and can be reliably sourced. Again, see Lola Pearce for an example. There's another article I used as an example once where it says ""the character is aged 19 upon her arrival"", with a reliable source, but I can't remember which one is was. Michael Moon's age probably isn't important, for example. We know he's an adult, and there's a photo so we can kind of guess how old he is. –projectors– "

Specific people are named in the mind map (i.e. Jens Ludwig and Roseanne Ander). These people are not to be found, by my searching, on the accompanying source. That's a WP:Verifiability and WP:BLP issue, and that's why this is also WP:OR. How do we know these named individuals have anything to do with the Joyce Foundation or gun control funding? We don't, because there's no source that says so.

Capitalization again Doc, I've responded to the points relevant to the proposal on that page, but I wanted to respond to your comments. I don't have strong opinions about grammar and my grammar skills are not strong. What I try to do in editing Wikipedia is follow the Manual of Style, but sometimes I can't tell what it intends. Because of that I have proposed language to make it more clear. If you could help with language that would clarify the MoS, I would be in your debt. Thank you,
