| Should there be an image of the "Buddy Bears" in this article? This has been a contentious issue that has evaded consensus so far. Sindinero (talk) 07:53, 9 February 2012 (UTC) |
Talk:Batting average
This article should be split into separate Batting average (baseball) and Batting average (cricket) articles. While the concept of "batting average" in both cricket and baseball are certainly related, and do share many similarities, there is a distinct difference between the two. The history behind the statistic is obviously related (and the content will therefore be basically the same for either article), once you move beyond the history behind the term the concepts of how it's calculated and used diverge rather strongly. While the following is admittedly a straw man argument, it strikes me that the arguments to retain only a single batting average article could be applied equally to the main cricket/baseball articles as well, which I don't think would garner the same amount of support as having this article be a single article has here. There's no evidence visible to the "benefits of having a single page probably outweigh the drawbacks" argument, other than that stance being the personal preference of a couple of editors from several years ago. I don't really edit Wikipedia any longer because I have no interest in getting involved in the pissing matches that these discussions inevitably become, but if there's someone out there that wants to pick up the ball here and run with it then I hope that I've provided an opportunity for them to do so.

Talk:Mark Cuban
| So, I made several revisions in the interest of cleaning up the article a bit and added the latest info about his attempt to buy the Dodgers. I took a good bit of time to do this, in the interest of making the article better. Immediately User:Jeffwang reverted these edits, claiming they were vandalism. When I asked why he thought so, he claimed that I added "fake edits" about the WWE. In fact, that information was not added by me, as can be seen under Line 101 in the original version, and, as it turns out, was 100% accurate (though the sourced links are now dead). This led to a heated exchange with Jeffwang at which point he finally bothered to actually check just what it was he was undoing and begrudgingly admitted he was wrong. So, I restored the edits I had made, only to have User:Jobin RV do the exact same thing. I'm not an idiot, I see how this game works. Any editors not part of the GOB network that would mind pointing out to these folks that my contributions were completely legitimate and accurate?

Talk:Svengali
| I've repeatedly undone edits by user:ArdenHathaway for making unsourced, poorly worded edits about Svengali being an antisemite. At this point I believe that I have gotten the editor to understand that the character himself is not actually an antisemite, but rather the author may be for portraying Svengali as he does. What I now can not get across to the editor is that any edit about this needs to be sourced, npov, and located in the appropriate place in the article. It may actually be more approproate in the Trilby article anyways. I am reluctant to be involved anymore after the number of edits I have made and after repeatedly being called an antisemite despite my best efforts to explain things to user:ArdenHathaway. Thanks for any help. Beach drifter (talk) 19:11, 27 January 2012 (UTC) |
Talk:Romanians of Serbia

If interested to help with the consolidation/clarification and/or if you want to make any suggestions, please do on there corresponding talk pages. Thanks.

Talk:Words With Friends
| Regarding the advertising tag that was place on this article a couple months ago, I'm interested to hear what language might be deemed promotional. Would appreciate it if another editor could either help me rewrite it or, if they see fit, remove the advertising tag. JovanWelks (talk) 22:40, 15 January 2012 (UTC) |
