== Alternative treatment for common cold ==

Dear user, Your recent edit in [[common cold]] was reverted, since there was no solid discussion on "Alternative treatment for common cold" on the talk page of this article as you mentioned there is, in your "edit summary". In your edit, you deleted a large section and just claimed that such treatment does not exist. Well, although I may agree with you, but I should mention that we can not just delete a section and add out self idea. The section that you deleted also had references. What you can do, is you add your statement with its citation to the previouse section but please do not delete statements from the articles without a solid discussion. I appreciate your attention [[User:Parvazbato59|Parvazbato59]] ([[User talk:Parvazbato59|talk]]) 16:20, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

* I noticed that you discussed it in another article [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Alternative_treatments_used_for_the_common_cold here]. This is the problem. One can not address an issue on another article and simply delete a section by addressing it there. But I am sure you were unaware of it. What you can do, is to do the same discussion in the talk page of common cold by opeining a new section and naming it "Alternative treatment for common cold". Then you can modify the text under that section, but still, '''I insist you can not delete the statements with references, eventhough they are against what we think". I know that alternative treatments maynot be scientific, but '''as you know, some of the medicines that we use today, come from the common "herbs"'''. Sicnece is not perfect. Thanks [[User:Parvazbato59|Parvazbato59]] ([[User talk:Parvazbato59|talk]]) 16:32, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Any time the two of you feel like concentrating on the issue at hand instead of each other would be fine by me. I just collapsed the ''completely'' off-topic comments, but if you happened to feel like removing the [[WP:NPA|personal attacks]] and other [[WP:TALK|unproductive text]] from ''your'' remaining comments, that would be nice. Either striking the text or replacing it with a brief note to that effect might improve the mood of that page. Thank you. - [[User talk:Eldereft|Eldereft]] <small>([[Special:Contributions/Eldereft|cont.]])</small> 15:53, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

:I've been trying to discuss content all along, I just haven't had much luck. I admit that, at times, I was unable to resist the temptation to respond in kind to the insults that started immediately upon my arrival, and for that I apologize to those stuck reading the off-topic comments. I agree completely with what you've collapsed. Indeed a lot more could be collapsed. If I have the time to do so, I will try to strike out some of my more off-topic statements that still remain. --'''[[User:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">Transity</span>]]''' <sup><span style="color:#800080; font-size:smaller;">([[User talk:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">talk</span>]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">contribs</span>]])</span></sup> 22:31, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
::Complete. There were some spots where striking things would have concealed a substantive point, so I may have left a few things that I otherwise would have removed. It also made me see that, towards the end (the last few days), my frustration was showing a lot more than it had been before. Good exercise. Also the reason I took 12 hours away from the site today. Thanks, Eldereft - I actually didn't realize this was a good - or even acceptable - thing to do. I appreciate the tip, and whether others follow suit or not, I'm glad I did it. --'''[[User:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">Transity</span>]]''' <sup><span style="color:#800080; font-size:smaller;">([[User talk:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">talk</span>]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">contribs</span>]])</span></sup> 01:09, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

:::Unfortunately, Ratel has [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ratel&diff=prev&oldid=285132797 erased your comment] on his talk page, and stated that nothing he said on IC/PBS was off-topic. Again, I'm still glad I redacted my off-topic text. But - and I mean this in all sincerity, so please understand these aren't meant as insults, but just observations - I don't know how to deal with someone behaving like Ratel within the parameters of WP. If I sink to their level, that's clearly no good. If I ignore them, I might as well not even try to improve an article with an editor like this "camped out." And I can't spend all my time in WQAs and RfCs - that's both a waste of time, and no fun at all. Do you have any advice? --'''[[User:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">Transity</span>]]''' <sup><span style="color:#800080; font-size:smaller;">([[User talk:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">talk</span>]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">contribs</span>]])</span></sup> 01:20, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
:::: Thank you, that is much better. I just left a note at the [[WP:FT/N|Fringe theories noticeboard]] that they might be interested in that discussion; hopefully now it will be easier for new editors to get up to speed. [[WP:TALK#Editing comments]] covers when and how it can be ok to muck about with the display record. Collapsing off-topic discussions can lead to trouble, but I tried to be as conservative as possible while still having some effect.

:::: Insist that the highest quality sources be strictly followed and try to find compromise wording is unfortunately the best advice I have. Calling in other editors (via RfC or the several noticeboards) can help, especially if those who answer are more interested in the encyclopedia than the POV. This debate is also covered by [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Fringe science]], which allows appeal to [[WP:AE|Arbitration enforcement]] in some fairly specific circumstances.

:::: Also, sorry for the high level of snarkiness in my opening comment; I had just finished reading that talkpage.

== Possible RfC Regarding Ratel ==

Hi, Transity - I placed a "final" note on the WQA regarding Ratel, explaining my intention to look into filing an RfC concerning him.  I know you've expressed that you don't wish to spend all your time on WQAs and RfCs, but as far as I can see, one user alone can't pursue an RfC against another user.  I'm reluctant to ask (or include, unasked) Collect in these proceedings, as his presence seems to distract from the issue of Ratel's behavior; I, myself, may be "poison" to the proceedings at this point, as you are the only user I've thus far encountered who shares my opinion of the ridiculous [[WP:SPA]] accusations.  I'm also admittedly new here, and despite my aptitude for research (which, as we all know, clearly indicates that I am a sockpuppet), I wouldn't mind a more experienced user or two taking the helm on this.  If you agree that Ratel's behavior, his refusal to cooperate in the WQA, and his continued behavior (as evidenced in your further dealings on the IC discussion) require the attention of others, perhaps one or the other of us might be able to find additional users to assist in the filing of the RfC.  Feel free to reply here or on my Talk page regarding this issue.  (And good luck on the IC Talk page - I'm not sure what more I can do to help matters there, unfortunately.) [[User:Scramblecase|Scramblecase]] ([[User talk:Scramblecase|talk]]) 04:59, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

:Scramblecase - I've looked through policies to see what is appropriate with regard to this kind of discussion, and I have to say I'm uncertain what's okay and what is not. I have expressed (on the WQA) my observations about Ratel's behavior as well as my interest in a possible RfC, so I believe your comment above to that effect is appropriate. I don't think it's appropriate, though, to try to find other users who might join in on an RfC, as that might constitute a violation of [[WP:CANVAS]]. I don't think you meant to suggest anything improper, I just think the policies concerning this are a little vague, especially when it comes to a process like RfC:User where three or more people are required to start the process.

:I think we should each decide, on our own, if we feel that proceeding with an RfC is the right way to go. If you decide to do so, I am asking that you please post a friendly notice here letting me know that you have moved forward (as I am an interested party, and as I have expressed interest in that path myself). If you like, if I decide to move forward, I can let you know as well. I also believe it is acceptable to alert other users who have previously debated the subject at hand - in this case, Ratel's behavior. I would look at the WQA to get an idea of who those users might be, as well as possibly the diffs provided in those comments as they might lead to other interested parties who have debated his behavior in a forum other than our recent WQA (again, I think this is an acceptable approach). As a note, I feel that any notification of an RfC should be a ''general'' notification to ''all interested parties'', and not just one directed at those who hold opinions similar to your or my own.

:So again, please do let me know if you move forward with an RfC, and I will do the same for you (as part of a larger notice to all interested parties). --'''[[User:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">Transity</span>]]''' <sup><span style="color:#800080; font-size:smaller;">([[User talk:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">talk</span>]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">contribs</span>]])</span></sup> 20:27, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

== DAB challenge ==

Bad news.  I've been able to restore everyone's points - except yours.  You see, my scripts make a list of the most linked-to disambigs at the beginning of each month.  Originally, one of the disambigs was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=LAPD_(disambiguation)&redirect=no LAPD (disambiguation)].  On May 8, R&B moved that page to [[LAPD]] (perfectly good move on his part, BTW) and that confused my scripts to the point they no longer could figure out who fixed what.  I can't think of a way to bring those points back.

If it's any consolation, I've had the theme to the Rockford Files stuck in my head all day :) --[[User:JaGa|<b><font color="#990000">Ja</font><font color="#000099">Ga</font></b>]][[User_talk:JaGa|<font color="#000000" size="-1"><sup>talk</sup></font>]] 21:42, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

== RE HealthyED pills ==

I would like the HealthyED brand to be included in Wikipedia. It has high street retail distribution and is both clinically test and proven. The sale of the raw herb is government controlled and it is processed into pill form under strict UK manufacturing standards. The product helps men overcome a serious condition (Impotence)and greater awareness can only be beneficial to all.

== Vandalism on my talk page ==

Thanks for reverting that obnoxious vandalism on my talk page.  How do I bring in an administrator to deal with the vandal? [[User:MarcusMaximus|MarcusMaximus]] ([[User talk:MarcusMaximus|talk]]) 17:35, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

:No problem. If it keeps happening (it seems like this guy has made this edit to your talk page three times thus far), revert the vandalism, then warn him on his talk page. I already added a first-level vandalism warning for the one I reverted, as well as a second level personal attack warning. If he does it again, I would suggest that you use a third level warning for vandalism, then a fourth, and if he vandalizes again (after his final warning), have him blocked at the [[WP:AIV]] board. You may, of course, skip to a "final warning" if he does it again as his edits are clearly both vandalism and personal attacks (and since the only use of this account has been vandalism), but if you do that, the block request may or may not be honored.

:Warning templates can be found at [[WP:VANDAL#Warnings]]. To report a vandal to be blocked, go to [[WP:AIV]] and use the following template, adding the IP address and links to the vandalism diffs:

:<pre style="width: 90%">{{IPvandal|1.1.1.1}} – IP used solely for repeated vandalism, including <span class="plainlinks">[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_Bison?diff=1111111 1], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_Bison?diff=1111111 2]</span></pre>

I know it sounds like a big pain in the ass to have to go through in order to stop someone from vandalizing your talk page, but it's the best way to stop the vandalism.

== otitis media with effusion to dyslexia ==

Unfortunately the other editor who have been repeatedly undoing my work has no idea what Otitis Media is and even less what otitis media with effusion is.
The same editor has lso no idea what dyslexia is and so it totoally unqualified to know that about how otitis media with effusion can be a cause of dyslexia.
I could be wrong but there has been no evidens over thr last few weeks to prove otherwise, just some personal vendetta for reasons best known to them

::I get what you're trying to do, dolfrog, but you have to work within the policies of Wikipedia. An article that doesn't mention dyslexia at all and which has no easily discerned connection to dyslexia generally isn't a good candidate for the dyslexia category. And if you just show up and add a seemingly off-topic category to an article (as with [[Otitis media]], which doesn't ''seem'' to have anything to do with [[dyslexia]]) without so much as a mention on the talk page, it's a good bet it will be reverted. The better approach would be to add information to the article first (assuming you have reliable sources to backup your claims), and ''then'' look to add the category if it makes sense.

Hi All 

I have added some new sections below which have come from various talk pages in recent days but all realted in some way to the dyslexia project. So I have added them all below, in the hope that we can all begin to add our own input as one person working alone can cause also sorts of problems as can be seen above.
I will post a copy of this to all who I think may wish to the new begining of the Dyslexia project and a copy will appear on your individual discussion pages ( I hope you do not mind).
The oringinal copy of this can be found at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Dyslexia]] the discusion page of  the main project article you will see revise project template, the changes on the tamplate is the addition of a Project pages section, which includes the orinal project pages and the new STAGE TWO page which is hopefuly the new starting point. the STAGE TWO page has the dyslexia article as it is now. And we can tinker with it without changing the actual article itself and discuss and issue we may have before making further changes to the article itself.

Tonight (9 July 2009), I hit my usual link to my watchlist and was told that a) I was not logged on and b) I had a message.

I clicked the 'message' banner first and saw

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Common cold. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Transity (talk • contribs) 20:59, 15 June 2009 (UTC)


I have no idea what my IP number is (nor how to find out) but it was not I that vandalised  [[Common cold]].  Having a clear conscience I am unperturbed by your message, which was extremely polite considering the rubbish that had been inserted.
 
However, either there is a glitch in the Wikipedia system or someone has been able to take over my IP address.  Can you suggest anyone who might be able to help with this?

In addition, I imagine that will have now switched off the 'You have a message' banner so the real offender will not get warned (if he/she cares).  Any ideas on how to fix this?

Having now logged on for another month, I am able to wish you…..

:(leaving this on [[User_talk:Dinoceras#.22You_have_vandalised.22_message|your talk page]] as well) My best guess is that your ISP assigns IP addresses dynamically, and every 1+ days, you get a new IP address from them. At the time the vandalism was taking place, you had a different IP. Today you had this one, and since your autologin had expired, you saw the message left for the IP user from several weeks back. You already have a login, and you will likely have a new IP soon enough, so I wouldn't worry about it. The problem will take care of itself.

== Ounces and tons ==

There's an old riddle: Which weighs more, a pound of gold or a pound of feathers? Of course they weigh the same. Then, you say, what about an ounce of gold vs. an ounce of feathers? The answer is the gold, because precious metals are traditionally weighed in [[troy ounce]]s. And as you can see at the [[ton]] article, what you refer to as "regular tons" (in the U.S.) are [[short ton]]s. These things aren't usually spelled out; it's just understood. Fact is, I didn't even know about the tons myself until I was reading the documentation for the {{tl|convert}} template. Good job on [[Harshaw, Arizona]]; I hope to see more of your ghost towns contributions. [[User:Ntsimp|Ntsimp]] ([[User talk:Ntsimp|talk]]) 00:19, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

The author had plenty of time to show reliable sources and notability, and it was time to re-tag (it was on my watchlist, and I likely would have done so shortly). I guess it was the author's willingness to actually engage in a discussion that caused me to assume good faith - most of the time, disputed CSDs are never defended at all, and a willingness to discuss the issues usually makes me want to pause to hear the arguments.

Hi. Just wanted to drop you a line to make absolutely clear that my decision to take the Edge article off my watchlist had nothing to do with you.

:Thanks for the note. I was a little concerned when I saw your comment, and I was wondering if you thought ''I'' was trampling on BLP somehow. So I appreciate the note.
:Objectively, I understand why you decided to back off. As I said, I found the page doing recent change patrol, as it was in the process of being repeatedly vandalized in the wake of the first report of the Mobigames issue. Since then, there has been a pretty constant stream of everything from waves of simple vandalism, to vandalism plastering Nazi images and text all over the article, to repeated insertions of BLP violations. In addition, the page was a clear vanity page when all this started, so it's been a real challenge getting it into even semi-decent shape.
:Subjectively, I sure do need some help, so I'm hoping the BLP notice will at least attract some extra eyes. So far, nothing though.

Also, one thing I didn't get around to saying before I vamoosed, be careful using gaming sites as reliable sources for issues of law - they might be reliable about games and gaming news, but that doesn't make them qualified to comment on the legality of ethics of trademark usage/abusage.

== It's not spam ==
Hello Transity.  I appreciate your email.  I am with an organization that includes nearly 20,000 medical doctors, and as you might imagine, anything we have on our website is reviewed from a medical perspective by specialists in those areas.  While I understand your concern that this looks like spam, I promise you that we are not selling anything, but rather help out with areas related to health care by providing peer-reviewed information written in a format for the average patient.

If possible, I would prefer that you email me directly before removing those items at cmoran@pamedsoc.org for a discussion.  My concern is that you are removing legitimate information that can help thousands with various health conditions.

Transity ... thanks again for your clarifications.

In your last message you wrote "In addition, there are guidelines for what sources are reliable sources for medical articles. You should review these to see if and when your site passes muster."

At the link you provided was written the following:

"A secondary source in medicine summarizes one or more primary or secondary sources, usually to provide an overview of the current understanding of a medical topic. Literature reviews, systematic review articles and specialist textbooks are examples of secondary sources, as are position statements and literature reviews by major health organizations. A good secondary source from a reputable publisher will be written by an expert in the field and be editorially or peer reviewed. Do not confuse a scientific review (the thing) with peer review (the activity)."

And, also at that link was the following:

"In general, Wikipedia's medical articles should be based upon published, reliable secondary sources whenever possible."

The Pennsylvania Medical Society is the largest health organization in Pennsylvania for physicians.  The peer-reviewed information that we publish on our websites falls within Wiki's guidelines for reliable sources of medical articles.  Thus I believe it passes muster.

:Actually, by "secondary sources" they are referring to "Literature reviews, systematic review articles and specialist textbooks are examples of secondary sources, as are position statements and literature reviews by major health organizations." Major health organizations include "the U.S. National Academies (including the Institute of Medicine and the National Academy of Sciences), the British National Health Service, the U.S. National Institutes of Health (including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), and the World Health Organization." You site doesn't qualify for either, as far as I can see. Your site appears to be more like a less-known version of WebMD. [[WP:MEDRS]] has this to say on sites like that: "Press releases, blogs, newsletters, advocacy and self-help publications, and other sources contain a wide range of biomedical information ranging from factual to fraudulent, with a high percentage being of low quality. '''Peer-reviewed medical information resources such as WebMD and UpToDate can be useful guides about the relevant medical literature and how much weight to give different sources; however, as much as possible Wikipedia articles should cite the literature directly.'''"

:I still think you need to review the links I provided more carefully. You are ''clearly'' editing with a conflict of interest, and your excessive links are ''clearly'' in violation of Wikipedia policies. I urge you to think about that before adding these links again. --'''[[User:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">Transity</span>]]''' <sup><span style="color:#800080; font-size:smaller;">([[User talk:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">talk</span>]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">contribs</span>]])</span></sup> 18:21, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

:Actually, the issues raised have ''not'' been adequately addressed. You added a bunch of non-reliable sources to the article, which doesn't address the need to improve the references ''or'' the need to establish notability.

:I suggest that you read the following pages so that you can understand why the article doesn't meet the requirements as it is. Start with the [[WP:GNG|general notability guidelines]] so that you understand what confers notability in general. Then look at [[WP:ORG|the guidelines for notability for companies]] so that you see what makes a company notable. Also try the [[WP:BFAQ|FAQ on businesses]] for some general guidance on writing articles on companies. Finally, read the [[WP:RS|policies on reliable sources]] to understand why your sources don't qualify as reliable, and what sources you would need to provide in order to address the issues raised.

:Specifically, you are leaning almost exclusively on the website of the company that is the subject of the article which is not a reliable source, and on search results which are not supposed to be used (and which show only hits from the Stay Thirsty site). If these are the only sources you have, then it is likely that the article does not meet notability standards.

== Get over it ==
Your petty obsession with enforcing your views on something you obviously know nothing about. Goodbye. [[User:Spritebox|Spritebox]] ([[User talk:Spritebox|talk]]) 22:27, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

:Thanks, but I'll let the record of [[Special:Contributions/Spritebox|your edits]] and my changes to those edits speak for itself. That thing I'm "enforcing" is Wikipedia policy, by the way. I don't know what response you got from others as a result of your edits, but every time I reverted you or changed what you wrote, I supplied a clear indication of what policy I thought you were running afoul of, and my arguments for why your edits had to be changed. I stand by every edit I made, and I'd point out that you never once even tried to counter my arguments.

:I see that you are "retiring," per [[User:Spritebox|your user page]]. If you ever decide to come back, I'd suggest reading up on the ground rules here so that you understand why what you did here is not acceptable. While you may think that I reverted you because of some massive disconnect in our worldviews (which certainly exists, based on your edits), the truth is that, despite the fact that the articles you edited are doubtlessly monitored by those who ''share'' your beliefs on mediums, ''no one sided with you on any of the articles you edited''. That includes those who, like you, believe that mediums and psychics are real. Think about that, and what it means, before tossing around [[WP:NPA|personal attacks]] just because your edits didn't hold up to scrutiny.

:If you cool down, take the time to actually look at your edits. Half of them added unsourced, POV, opinions to articles (those in support of the paranormal), and the other half removed statements claiming that they were unsourced (those skeptical of the paranormal). There's no internal consistency there &mdash; you simply used whatever argument propped up the end result you were aiming for. You came here with a clear agenda, and without ever understanding the policies of Wikipedia, you attempted to [[WP:SOAPBOX|make your point, whether it was valid or not]]. That tends to get people upset, as you have seen.

:And for the record, I have done a lot of research into the paranormal, so you are incorrect when you say that this is a topic I "obviously know nothing about." Goodbye. --'''[[User:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">Transity</span>]]''' <sup><span style="color:#800080; font-size:smaller;">([[User talk:Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">talk</span>]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|<span style="color:#800080;">contribs</span>]])</span></sup> 22:55, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

== [[Chiropractic controversy and criticism]] ==

Your recent [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chiropractic_controversy_and_criticism&action=historysubmit&diff=327052773&oldid=327042091 revert] was against Wikiepedia's [[WP:EL|guideline on external links]]. Please provide your justification for putting dead links and other external links which break [[WP:EL]] on the talk page. [[User:DigitalC|DigitalC]] ([[User talk:DigitalC|talk]]) 22:10, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

:Sure thing. You took an axe to the EL section, with vague and general edit summaries as your explanations. You were reverted by another editor and asked to discuss your sweeping edits, and you reverted back with no discussion. I again reverted your changes, and again asked you to discuss them on the page. It seems that you are doing that now, so I'm sure the discussion will proceed from this point.

:As a note, you didn't say which removals were due to which supposed problems, and some of the removed links were, in my view, clearly ''not'' contrary to [[WP:ELNO]]. As such, the burden does not fall to me to "prove" that they satisfy [[WP:EL]] in all cases, until and unless you can make an argument for removing them.

:Regarding your two specific issues, I have no desire to include dead links in any article. However, did you check to see if the links could be found at another URL? Since you didn't say anything about that when you made your edits, I assumed that you did not. As such, it is ''always'' better to check for another URL before simply deleting the link. I think you would agree. It is also possible that the link was only temporarily broken. Again, since your only comments were the brief edit summaries for your changes, it isn't easy to tell what is really meant by a dead link here. I also have no desire to include links that are contrary to [[WP:EL]], but as I said, some of your removals seem to be clearly okay by [[WP:EL]], while others are borderline at worst. To me, and to the other editors actively engaged in a dialog on the article's talk page, that means that such changes merit discussion as to whether the links are contrary to [[WP:ELNO]] before simply removing them. Those are my rationales for my edit.

:Finally, in no way was my edit contrary to [[WP:EL]], so please refrain from tossing around baseless accusations. There's no reason why a civil discussion cannot take place on these links, and the best way to ensure that is to remember to [[WP:AGF|assume good faith]]. I've long since given up the notion that science and reason trump Wikipedia guidelines, so if there's a link that violates a Wikipedia policy, I'll agree that it should be removed, regardless of whether the link is in line with or against my personal views. [[WP:EL]] can be pretty open to interpretation, though, and it intentionally leaves some room for exceptions, so the cases may not be as clear cut as you'd like. Keep that in mind, and make your case on the talk page. I'll agree with you if your case is strong. And as a piece of advice, try to avoid large-scale deletions like the ones your made without at least some sort of discussion (or at least make one change per edit with a clear edit summary to make it obvious why you removed each item, and to allow individual reverts instead of bulk ones). They almost always end up getting reverted, even on articles less controversial than this one.

::By reverting my edit, you added links to the article which had clearly been challenged. Per [[WP:EL]], the onus is on you to justify the inclusion of such links. If you felt some of the links were not contrary to [[WP:ELNO]], then you should have justified their inclusion, not revert the change wholesale. At the point of the edit, there were no "other editors actively engaged in a dialog on the article's talk page" about the links, so I'm not sure who you are talking for. However, again, per WP:EL the onus is on the people adding/restoring links to justify their inclusion, not the person removing the link. [[User:DigitalC|DigitalC]] ([[User talk:DigitalC|talk]]) 18:23, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

:::No, I disagree. When I saw your mass deletes, I saw a number of things that, on their face, were improper. To me, it seemed that you were editing with an agenda, and deleting those things that didn't mesh with that agenda - trying to find reasons to remove the links you didn't like. In a case like that, it is ''not'' up to other editors to individually argue against each of the multiple deletions you made, and trying to claim that it is would seem an awful lot like [[WP:GAME|gaming the system]]. In addition, I didn't tell you that you had to prove that you weren't pushing a POV, I simply asked that you discuss these obviously contentious changes on the talk page. Finally, as I was the ''second'' editor to revert your changes for the ''same reason'', I would suggest that you were making changes ''against consensus'' and without discussion, and that your reverts came very close to edit warring. So do be careful about accusing others of violating policies.

:::In short, you took an axe to an article, and then you expected other editors to use a scalpel to correctly parse your good edits from your bad ones. I'm sorry, but that doesn't hold water at all. Now I suggest we stop wasting time in this pointless discussion on my talk page, and instead concentrate on the actual topic of this discussion, namely the article in question and its links. <font color="80080">--</font><font color="800080" face="Verdana">''' [[User:Transity|Transity]]'''</font><font color="800080"><sup><small>([[User talk:Transity|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|contribs]])</small></sup></font> 18:51, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

::::Sure, I welcome discussion on the articles talk page. Hopefully you remember to [[AGF|assume good faith]], as you mentioned above. Stating that I was editing with an agenda and deleting things that didn't mesh with that agenda is not assuming good faith. I fully disagree with you that it is not up to you to justify your reversion, when the guideline says that it is up to you, and I fully disagree that it comes even close to gaming the system.

That works. I've removed the ref to the 1910 USGS report as it was also about the Harshaw mine in the Santa Ritas. Didn't seem to be much content based on it - you might check tho'. What nerve them old miners had to use the same name in two different mountain ranges :) Cheers, [[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] ([[User talk:Vsmith|talk]]) 02:52, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

That ''jutting mountains'' bit kinda bothers me a little - seems an odd replacement for ''comparatively little soil cover'', but I guess it's in the ref as such. ''Jutting mountains'' gives me a mental image of tectonic or volcanic uplift. Anyway, I didn't remove the ''... soil cover'' bit when I chopped the other source as it seems quite apt and descriptive (I worked in the area back in the 70s on Red Mtn.) and non-controversial. The erosional features of Harshaw Creek drainage with headward erosion into the Patagonias and the west margin of the San Rafael dominate my mental image of the area (supported by the topo map), but hey that's original research :) Cheers, [[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] ([[User talk:Vsmith|talk]]) 15:07, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

:I'm with you. I liked the old language better than the "jutting mountains" bit, and I agree the old description (lush areas interspersed with areas of exposed rock with little soil cover) seemed pretty much spot on for the region. I'll keep poking around for a source that bears that out a little better though I doubt anyone would balk at leaving the old language unreferenced as it's pretty uncontroversial. <font color="80080">--</font><font color="800080" face="Verdana">''' [[User:Transity|Transity]]'''</font><font color="800080"><sup><small>([[User talk:Transity|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|contribs]])</small></sup></font> 15:52, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

== Silver Reef's population ==

I noticed you provided a census table for the article [[Silver Reef, Utah|Silver Reef]]. I would first like to thank you. I'll put the table in as soon as I have some time. However, due to the fact that Silver Reef still has people in it, and some of the most popular ghost towns do have people in them, I have changed my mind about the demographics section and would like to make one. Is there a 2000 Census number for Silver Reef, and can you find anything about Silver Reef's demographics? Thanks!

:No problem. I picked up a used copy of the Moffat book a while back for about $6, and it's helped to fill in a lot of population data for these old ghost towns. Unfortunately, the book only shows numbers up until 1990. When I checked the Census web site, I couldn't find any numbers for 2000 (or later, as that site sometimes also shows estimates from in between more recent surveys). I think a demographics section is a great idea - I just don't know where to tell you to look for the recent data. I will do some more poking, and let you know if I find anything. <font color="80080">--</font><font color="800080" face="Verdana">''' [[User:Transity|Transity]]'''</font><font color="800080"><sup><small>([[User talk:Transity|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|contribs]])</small></sup></font> 14:21, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
::Alright, thanks! I'm not sure if Silver Reef's population would be included in [[Leeds, Utah|Leeds]]' population, since they're only about half a mile away from each other. Then again there were 1990 Census numbers....I'll do some poking around, too.

::::Not a thing. I can't even find confirmation that Silver Reef is counted as part of Leeds (or that it isn't). Not sure where else to look at this point. <font color="80080">--</font><font color="800080" face="Verdana">''' [[User:Transity|Transity]]'''</font><font color="800080"><sup><small>([[User talk:Transity|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|contribs]])</small></sup></font> 00:50, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
:::::Hm....could we still add a demographics section using only the 1990 census details?

::::::In my opinion: sure. I try to cover historical population data as well as anything more recent in a demographics section for a ghost town. See [[Harshaw, Arizona]], [[Fairbank, Arizona]], and [[Swansea, Arizona]] for a few examples. Obviously for many ghost towns the depth of information used in a demographics section for a living town just isn't available. I think you take what you can get, and write it up the best you can. 
::::::For Silver Reef, that would include a demographics section that includes the historical census data, the more recent 1990 census data, and a discussion of some of the speculated population numbers that are often found in books and other less quantitative accounts. It would be great to know where those residents are counted today, and that's still something that can be researched, but for now, I'd go with what you have. <font color="80080">--</font><font color="800080" face="Verdana">''' [[User:Transity|Transity]]'''</font><font color="800080"><sup><small>([[User talk:Transity|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|contribs]])</small></sup></font> 14:11, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
:::::::I like that. I'll try to work with that when I get some time (I'll be fairly busy most of today). I have one concern, though. The difference between Silver Reef and the ghost towns you mentioned is that Silver Reef still has a few current residents. Therefore, demographics should look like any unincorporated community; with average income, average number of people per household, etc. Can you dig any of that up, or will we have to stick with the simple sentence "As of the 1990 census, Silver Reef housed approximately 50 people"? [[User:The Utahraptor|<font color="green">The Raptor</font>]] [[User talk:The Utahraptor|<sup>You rang?</sup>]]/[[Special:Contributions/The Utahraptor|<sub>My mistakes; I mean, er, contributions</sub>]] 14:17, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
(undent) I think for now, stick with the sentence you mentioned, and in the mean time, we keep looking for the more recent information. If we can just source the fact that as of 2000 the numbers are now grouped with Leeds (for example), then we can mention that and link to the Leeds demographics section for further information. There must be a way to find that out. I'll keep looking. <font color="80080">--</font><font color="800080" face="Verdana">''' [[User:Transity|Transity]]'''</font><font color="800080"><sup><small>([[User talk:Transity|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|contribs]])</small></sup></font> 18:09, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
:Alright. I'll do as you said, and start the demographics section. I'll also keep a lookout for both 2000 Census data for Silver Reef and a source that says Silver Reef's population is included in Leeds. One last question, though. Should we change the label of Silver Reef from ghost town to unincorporated community? A couple ghost towns ([[Virginia City, Nevada|example 1]] and [[Virginia City, Montana|example 2]]) are labeled as such, so I think it would be a good idea. What do you think?

::I don't think you can go wrong either way at this point. I think Silver Reef itself is gone. Having a few residents doesn't make it "not a ghost town," in my opinion (and according to the working definitions I've seen and used on Wikipedia). I also think it qualifies as an Unincorporated Community as well, and that there's some overlap between the two. I'm not sure. <font color="80080">--</font><font color="800080" face="Verdana">''' [[User:Transity|Transity]]'''</font><font color="800080"><sup><small>([[User talk:Transity|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/Transity|contribs]])</small></sup></font> 01:32, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

== Xenos Chrsitian Fellowship article ==

I've added some links to the Discussion page to answer some of your questions about notability and other references. As I attend the church (and my spouse works there), it would probably be best for proper POV for another member to excerpt this information. But it's there, in books for a national audience, written over a 10 year period, and the stuff is available on Amazon and is searchable on Amazon, so it does not have to be purchased. This should help. Let me know what you think, as I thought your tagging of the article was proper without these "new" references.[[User:Kgilbert78|Kgilbert78]] ([[User talk:Kgilbert78|talk]]) 14:39, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest==

I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links/November 2013|November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest]], on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day ([https://tools.wmflabs.org/dplbot/ch/dab_challenge.php see the project page for details on scoring points]). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely <i>nine</i> edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I <i>will</i> credit links fixed by turning a [[WP:DABCONCEPT]] page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links/The Daily Disambig|Daily Disambig]], we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers!

== New deal for page patrollers ==

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}},

In order to  better control the quality  of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the [[WP:Page Curation|current system we introduced in 2011]] is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group '''New Page Reviewer''' has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed.  However, this is nothing to worry about - most ''current'' experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''''New Page Reviewers''''']] and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying.
