Frankly, the fact that you can't see a difference between having a harmonised map on all EU country pages and one different one on the UK only makes me wonder how you see Wikipedia.

I can understand people giving up on the former given all the rubbish that goes on, but it does seem to me that you are siding against the good guys here for reasons of your own.

STOP DELETING MY CONTENT!

WHICH PART IS "PERSONAL ATTACH?"

Moderators from mailand China

Even though Wikipedia is blocked in mainland China, it actually has the largest number of moderators for the Chinese Wikipedia.

The capital city - Beijing actually has 6, Shanghai has 6, Guangdong province has 6, Hunan province has 1, Jiangsu province has 3, Shanxi province has 1, Shandong province has 1, Zhejiang province has 1, Heilongjiang province has 1, Hubei has 1, other areas has 2. Total of 29.[12]

[edit] Controversies

According to International Herald Tribune Asia-Pacific:"on sensitive questions of China's modern history or on hot-button issues, the Chinese version diverges so dramatically from its English counterpart that it sometimes reads as if it were approved by the censors themselves." [13]

"[Some] say the object should be to spread reliable information as widely as possible, and that, in any case, self-censorship is pointless because the government still frequently blocks access to Wikipedia for most Chinese Internet users. 'There is a lot of confusion about whether they should obey the neutral point of view or offer some compromises to the government,' said Isaac Mao, a well-known Chinese blogger and user of the encyclopedia. 'To the local Wikipedians, the first objective is to make it well known among Chinese, to get people to understand the principles of Wikipedia step by step, and not to get the thing blocked by the government.'" -- from new york times. --—The preceding unsigned comment was added by SummerThunder (talkcontribs).

Go read what I said on WP:VPM already. No point repeating myself here. --tjstrf talk 03:02, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

SummerThunder's NPA violations

I believe it's up to sysop discretion to determine what constitutes "threats, whether legal, personal, or professional, that in any way are seen as an attempt to intimidate another user" or "conduct [that] severely disrupt the project". (Wikipedia:Blocking policy) -- ran (talk) 02:56, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's true that I feel a bit too involved in this discussion to do any blocking. =) The situation isn't that severe yet though, since there are several other sysops following him around; he hasn't messed up too many articles yet; and if he keeps going and spreads out, more sysops are going to notice anyways. In any case, if he continues and no one notices, we'll ask at WP:ANB. -- ran (talk) 03:06, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
and are you a little too much? this is a talk section for user tjstrf.

"On December 1, 2006, The New York Times published another report by Howard W. French, titled as "Wikipedia lays bare two versions of China's past."“

Some say the object should be to spread reliable information as widely as possible, and that, in any case, self-censorship is pointless because the government still frequently blocks access to Wikipedia for most Chinese Internet users. 'There is a lot of confusion about whether they should obey the neutral point of view or offer some compromises to the government,' said Isaac Mao, a well-known Chinese blogger and user of the encyclopedia. 'To the local Wikipedians, the first objective is to make it well known among Chinese, to get people to understand the principles of Wikipedia step by step, and not to get the thing blocked by the government. ”
And "the articles are already pre-censored by party-leaning moderators and users." and you are the one of the moderators
--SummerThunder 03:05, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ran can make comments here if he pleases to do so. Even I am not allowed to control who posts to my talk page if they are not being disruptive, you certainly can't. --tjstrf talk 03:08, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

STOP DELETING MY CONTENT AND STOP REVERTING WHAT I WROTE!

everything I wrote in Blocking of Wikipedia in mainland China is the truth. STOP DELETING MY CONTENT AND STOP REVERTING WHAT I WROTE!--SummerThunder 05:00, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please review the guidelines on Wikipedia:Civility. Aggressive language is not constructive. –Gunslinger47 05:46, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

exactly, here is what this user wrote when he reverted the aricle Blocking of Wikipedia in mainland China, "revert edits by disgruntled banned zh.wiki member with a conspiracy and an axe to grind against the Chinese admins." agreesive reverting behavior is not contructive, personal attack is not allowed. --SummerThunder 06:10, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Which was a true statement, and I provided a link to vouch for it. You have yet to explain the relevance of your additions outside of your anti-zh admin paranoia. --tjstrf talk 06:26, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You have yet to explain the relevance of your additions outside of your support-zh admin paranoia. which is beyond normal. --SummerThunder 19:58, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

STOP REVERTING everything i wrote!

stop reverting the NEWS that I posted in the NEWS section of the village pump. you know nothing about the world if you are really 17! --SummerThunder 19:57, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is an ad hominem argument and is, by dictionary definition, a personal attack. His age does not instantly invalidate his opinions. I'm having difficulty following your current plight, but I am at least familiar with the current policy on the English Wikipedia. Please do not make personal attacks on this user. –Gunslinger47 21:57, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

excuse me?

Any reason why you reverted what i wrote in the trivia section of Tokyo Mew Mew?? That was not vandalism, which is making me assume you didn't really read what i added. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 09:36, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't call your contribution vandalism. It was simply speculative, personal commentary, and badly written. --tjstrf talk 09:49, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Generally, people read an article of a subject they know about. I never have read an article and never knew the subject, as that would confuse me beyond help.

Go read the Tokyo Mew Mew mangas, and see the untranslated words for yourself. That would make question how tokyopop could have missed these words. I assuming you nerver read Tokyo Mew Mew which would make you think, not know that it isnt orginal research, so wouldnt know the untranslated words. Keep in mind that the target audience for tokyopop is around 10 yrs old, so i try to provide as much as possible. It is NO WHERE near orginal reseach if i have the mangas and always read them when im about to add something..it was not badly written. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 23:28, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

edit: actually, with an accusation like that, you should have read the manga then accusing me with orginal research. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 23:43, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So, in other words, you could have easily re-wrote what i add, as opposed to deleting all at once, which what bothers me the most, because you discarded it all as personal comments and orginal research. Yet you still haven't answered if you have read Tokyo Mew Mew. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 23:50, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The trivia section does seem quite bloated. –Gunslinger47 00:00, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
(( Woo, 00:00. Happy New Years UTC, Tjstrf! )) –Gunslinger47 00:02, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Could you tell her that? I'm having a difficult time getting my point across here. 8 hours left for myself. --tjstrf talk 00:04, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

......I"m not a boy..if saw my user page...... its already said that the only reason why the trivia section is big is because how its spaced out, due to the kanji, for people who dont know japanese."THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 00:09, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, her then. I use him as a neutral pronoun when I don't know a person's gender. --tjstrf talk 00:11, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest splitting the color/name trivia into its own sub-section. Further, the other bullet points ought to be made more concise. Aim to fit trivia onto only one or two lines per bullet point. –Gunslinger47 00:30, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No-threat policy

Wiki has a non-threat policy - do not try to threat other contributors. You are violating it by making threats.

'unholy alliance' is a rhetoric usage common in English, and it's referred to my perception on zh.wiki. It's absolutely not personal attack. You are simply making up excuses trying to silence others. Please, stop. Do not abuse your power. --Uponsnow 12:42, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:No Personal Attacks disagrees with you. --tjstrf talk 13:01, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for making the distinction. Since English is not my native language, I've submitted the question to others so I can get native speaker's response. Again, Ad hominem is an enjoyable reading. In fact Chinese speakers are committing such logic fallacy every day. --Uponsnow 13:18, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

After carefully reviewing the policy, I am convinced that 'unholy alliance' does not qualify a personal attack, but 'out of your mind'(? I think I didn't say such thing) may be a borderline case. I certainly should have rephrased it if I did say it. Thank you. --Uponsnow 13:21, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gosh, I find the second quote. I said 'I hope he was out of his mind' when he said certain thing, means I wish it's only a mindless mistake - he didn't mean what he said. It's certainly not personal attack, but a defense on his behalf. Maybe I'd better find another way to say it. --Uponsnow 13:26, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Military brat

A few months ago, you voted to delete a category:Military brat. It has been reintroduced and once again is being nominated for deletion. The discussion is here. I am contacting you so that you can revisit the discussion, but before doing so please read the article Military brat (U.S. subculture) as the term is not POV and is a highly researched subject. The previous discussion was done before I got involved, but I think you will find out that this is a credible subject worthy of its own category. Balloonman 22:19, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstars and whatnot

You might be interested in seeing how User:Samuel Blanning organizes his barnstars. It's pretty slick. –Gunslinger47 23:09, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks

Ok - so I'll avoid it (HTML) then. Haha, actually I think I need to start limiting my questions, I've been to the table and infobox page, and I asked 4 questions about tables and 2 about infoboxes (and if I get an answer and I don't understand the answer - there will probably be more). Thanks a lot for your help though I really appreciate it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Danielfolsom (talkcontribs).


Do I need to do anything else for this page?

Hey I'm sorry for asking you (I said I asked a lot) another question, but could you take a look at this page, [1] - I added everything that's not the article (just the delete and for other uses thing), but it seems like I need to do something else - if you could respond on my talk page i'd really appreciate it. Danielfolsom 04:10, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry

Oh - ok, I thought I might have to like contact Wikipedia about it (I didn't know putthing the db spam on there actually notified Wikipedia, I thought it just warned the writer I was notifying wikipedia). Sorry bout the signature thing, I just completely forgot Danielfolsom 04:10, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wo


I GOT IT!!! THanks you sooo much for your help! (turns out it actually doesn't work in IE - meaning me switching actually prolonged this thing for 20 minutes, haha sorry for spamming ur talk like this, I'll erase everything before this). Danielfolsom 06:58, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Response

Well, if they're under reform, let's give it a few weeks. I doubt it's that much of an emotional issue really, except for some of the keep-voters the debate was pretty much rational. >Radiant< 11:47, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kombucha

Hi, your vandalism revert to Kombucha mentioned me and popups and I'm not sure why. I made the edit before the vandal, not the vandalism. Please let me know if I did anything wrong. Alexwoods 14:48, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protecting your user page

Hi Tjstrf, I was wondering if you'd like your user page to be semi-protected for a while? This way we can stem some of the vandalism that's been going on recently.

If you want, I can also protect your talk page. What do you prefer?

-- ran (talk) 23:24, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd really prefer not to have my talk page protected, since I get enough conversations with new users that it could be potentially harmful. Besides, any time it's vandalized I get a big orange warning flag anyway. Do semi the userpage though. Thank you. --tjstrf talk 23:30, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done! I've left the tag out coz I'm not sure whether you'd prefer it, for aesthetic reasons etc.
Happy New Year btw. =) -- ran (talk) 23:33, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. You could've used the little floating padlock in the corner, but I guess it's not that important to inform people that my userpage is semied anyway. Happy new year to you as well. --tjstrf talk 23:49, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The disturbed IP has just now been given a two-day vacation from WP. -- Hoary 00:52, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


PSH

That's actually kinda funny, I was editing my page the whole time - so i didn't realize he was doing anything. If you need any help getting your page back or something feel free to ask (I didn't notice if your page was normal or not). Danielfolsom 01:15, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I didn't mean that in a mean way, I was saying it's funny because I was working on my page (adding templates) the whole time, I had no idea he was making any changes.
Danielfolsom 01:45, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Question:

Wait, I just realized that my email was changed, was that the spammer guy (I was working on voting and contested deletion articles - man I need to stop working on things and pay attention!) Danielfolsom 02:11, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OH

Sweet, thanks! If you ahve time I have a question about the Wikipedia deletion policy. Assuming some people don't want the page deleted, can you do a vote in the talk session of the page as to whether or not to keep the deletion? Danielfolsom 02:31, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another blocked

I have blocked the more recent IP which was engaging in the mass-revert attacks on yourself and other editors. Feel free to drop me a line anytime another one pops up and we'll deal with the disruption quickly. (ESkog)(Talk) 04:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please flesh out the reason why he is quoted there then. It is not obvious to someone who is ignorant of the subject why he deserves tp be quoted, something not helped by his pitiful WP entry. ViridaeTalk 20:30, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I still believe that it needs to be stated in the article as to why his opinion on the matter is worthwhile, rather than forcing them to turn to the source to find out. ViridaeTalk 21:12, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thought about that, but you know who the guy is - I have no idea :P *hint hint* 21:19, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Why did you have to wreck my fun? I was trolling the troll, turning the table, delivering justice and enjoying every minute of it. Yes, it was idiotic, but it was still fun, and no one was getting hurt by it. -- The Hybrid 10:05, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not a problem. Honestly if you had just asked me to stop I would have. As you can see, the trolls stopped after I personally redirected the page. The report wasn't really necessary. Sometimes just talking to people can solve problems like this. Cheers, -- The Hybrid 11:12, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What I meant was if you had just spoken to me before you filed the report I would have fixed the situation. Cheers, -- The Hybrid 11:21, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Psychics and WP:WTA

Thank you for weighing in on Wikipedia talk:Words to avoid#Use of "purported" in conjunction with "psychic medium". I'm hoping the input of other editors will help us reach a consensus on the issue and move on! — Elembis 00:51, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Speculation?

Aside from the fact that making out with someone doesn't necessarily mean you want a relationship with them, "seems to want" is speculation based on the editor's opinion of the situation. Whether you consider it speculation or original research, it's not been sourced, and the information in question doesn't really belong on the Elfen Lied page anyway. Maybe on fansites or forums, but theoretical desires of characters, which haven't been stated or shown clearly by the author or the character(s) themselves, don't really have a place on Wikipedia. Perhaps speculation wasn't the best choice of wording, but unsourced theories (and weaselly words like 'seems') are generally just speculation on the part of the person with that opinion. Sorry for any trouble. Nique1287 12:26, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting a thread from Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)

I see you deleted a discussion from Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals). While the inspiration for the discussion was a user prone to conspiracy theories, the particular user who started the thread is an editor in good standing who was being civil and just happened to mention that a government might want to influence Wikipedia. I think it was rather heavy-handed to just delete the whole thread since it didn't violate anything at Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Accordingly, I have restored the thread. Reply here is you desire. —Dgiest c 19:46, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you believe that was a wise decision, then I will not oppose it. However, I think its presence will simply encourage the trolls, just like every other thread that attempted to discuss the issues. --tjstrf talk 20:09, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm in the process of talking this over with everyone over at WP:EL. As it stands now, I see no reason to keep these links when an article in the original language exists. Havok (T/C/e/c) 20:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Use better language

No need of you to post a message [2] about a "guy whining" -- are you so "above it all" that you can say such a dumb thing? You could have said "discussion or debate" in more neutral terms. Watch your manners kid. IZAK 09:27, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How odd that a proponent of politeness who's upset about the single word "whining" would write about it with both "dumb" and "kid". I suppose if it irritated you, you could reply to him as "gramps". Better not do so, but it's a thought. -- Hoary 09:59, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kouta vs Kōta in Elfen Lied

The characters of his name do not contain a "ー" (aka "vowel extender mark") which, to me, would be the indicator of a long "ō". Kouta's name is broken up like this: コ(ko)ウ(u)タ(ta). Wouldn't only コーウタ be Kōta?

The fact that the official romanisation is "Kohta" seems to strengthen this. Would this not indicate a rare case in which the name contains "ou" rather than "ō"? Please revert your edit if you agree with me, or correct my feeble attempt at understanding katakana. - Phorque 09:24, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What would you suggest?

Hello, Tjstrf. What's your idea, of a guideline for bio articles titles/content (on Diacritics), for the Wikipedia: Naming conventions page. GoodDay 01:01, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you can present a compromise that has no contradictions, wich could end this 'Diacritics' Schism, then I wish you good luck. I've washed my hands of the disputes. In my opinon, only an Aribitration Committee ruling will be heeded by all Wikipedians. Good Luck in finding a solution. I'm done with it (seeking a compromise).

Relating to Tokyo Mew Mew

metamorphosis vs. metamorphose

In the Tokyo Mew Mew manga, the Mews say "Mew Mew (name of Mew) metamorphosis!"

In a la mode, Berry says "Mew Mew Berry Metamorphose!"

Yume no Kishi told that "Metamorphose" would be grammically correct, and gave her reason in the Tokyo Mew Mew dicussion. Seeing how Tokyopop tended to correct mistakes in a la mode, that further strengthened her reason. But, I would rather have a 3rd person give their reason which is right; like more of a consenus.

This is the 2nd time I write this, but since an idiot wrote "CAN'T KEEP ME DOWN FOREVER, BITCH!" it got deleted...

"THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 18:54, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"(Are the other moves verbs or nouns?)"

You are refreing to their attacks right? Hmm. I would have to say the majority of the Ichigo's and all of Berry's attacks are refering to the techique.

Mint's and Lettuce seem to be refering to what their doing. Mint shooting an arrow what makes echos, Lettuce's are refering to the rush of water, not entirely sure about Puuding and Zakuro's.

ChilledToTheBone nonsense...

Thanks for the heads up. I admit I was surprised an apparently new member was working on it, but I (tentatively) assumed good faith (maybe was an active anon who decided to finally get an account) --I hadn't paid attention to why that particular T-Mobile hotspot was blocked (I do most of my edits from work which is static and unproblematic).

United Kingdom

I was really just trying to maintain a sensible edit of the page broadly agreed with; shame that doing that is considered 3RR and the vandalism is not vandalism when done cleverly. Note also TharkunColl's recent deletion of multiple user comments on his page. MarkThomas 17:34, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Frankly, the fact that you can't see a difference between having a harmonised map on all EU country pages and one different one on the UK only makes me wonder how you see Wikipedia. Do you see it primarily as an encyclopedia for users or as a battleground for editors with different points of view? I can understand people giving up on the former given all the rubbish that goes on, but it does seem to me that you are siding against the good guys here for reasons of your own.
