editing and citing |
| hey, im new to editing here and i appreciate your comments but the contestant i edited is actually someone i know personally so i can assure you the info is correct. my sister in law was at school with her and i know her half brother thought work. I will be adding in cites as soon as I can find the information but a lot of it is personal so i dont know what to do about that, what would yuo suggest in the situation. thanks Neilmcgb (talk) 23:26, 28 October 2012 (UTC) |
- Welcome to Wikipedia. Regarding reliance on your personal experiences as support for content added to Wikipedia, see WP:OR and WP:V. This appears to relate to this revert. I haven't researched the details of this, but your insertion of IM.SuperDry as the name of a Korean player appears questionable. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:39, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
Hey, keep up all the good work with Huggle. I am just curious if you know that this happened. -- Cheers, Riley Huntley 04:37, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
- No, that came as a surprise to me. It looks like a mis-click which I committed in a Huggle session and missed seeing. Thanks for fixing it and calling it to my attention. Cheers, Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 04:58, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
Edit to the UDHR article
-Hello, I recently made an edit on the universal declaration of human rights page on wikipedia, i made a minor edit and put "his/her" instead of "his" property, i did this because it could be classed as sexist and patriarchal to simply put His property, because it insinuates that "she" or any female does not have the right to her property. hope i cleared some stuff up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.26.248.232 (talk • contribs) 20:03, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
- From memory, without checking back, I recall that I reverted that edit to reflect what that article of the UDHR actually does say. I took your edit as a personal unsupported editorial opinion about what you believe that it ought to say. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 12:12, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

Statistical_independence article edited by someone else : 31 October 2012
Hello. I just picked up a message addressed to me (or at least, an IP address attributed to me) when I accessed this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_independence
I followed the link to here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:95.147.118.138&redirect=no
I did not edit the page in question at all. I suspect that what has happened is down to my IP address being on dynamic allocation, to avoid problems we have had in the past. So the given IP address had been allocated to someone else at the time.

Message from an anonymous vandal
Could you like, not ruin Wikipedia anymore?— Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{2}}}|{{{2}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{2}}}#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{2}}}|contribs]]) 15:02, November 7, 2012 173.48.73.233 (UTC)
- This was an apparent reaction to my reversion of several bits of vandalism along the lines of this edit. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 07:09, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
Request for second inspection of the La Luz del Mundo
Hello, it's me again. I hope this message finds you well. Sorry to request your attention back on this page, but two users have for the past few months been complicitly reverting some or all of the content of my edits, to the point where it's become problematic and discussions just don't help anymore. I can't contribute a single thing without having both users bombard the page with dozens of revisions like so, distorting my edit to the benefit of the church. Discussion regarding these edits starts here .
Could you look into possible issues regarding WP:TAGTEAM, because both users (Fordx12 and Ajaxfiore) are increasingly turning my revisions to look more like this, and I especially drew the line when one user violated the 3 revert rule this morning. For the sake of being the better person, I've abstained from further editing/reverting regardless of my justifiability, until this serious issue is addressed. I've also contacted another admin for additional input.
I would immensely appreciate your valuable insight in regards to this matter, thanks! RidjalA (talk) 21:40, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not focused on dealing with specific cases, and I'm busy on other things both in Wikipedia and in WP:Real Life. You'll probably get better results from an admin who is focused on such areas. I suggest that you read WP:GAIV and report this at WP:AIV. Hope that helps. 22:01, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

Bakers union edit
If you read what I wrote then you will clearly see that it was nothing but pure fact. Please keep your OPINIONS! to yourself. What I wrote constitutes a legitimate addition to Wikipedia and complys with the spirit of the site and its intended use, period! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dorkonaspork (talk • contribs) 12:32, November 17, 2012 (UTC)
- This concerns my revert here. I did not and do not challenge the factualness of the information you inserted. However the opinionated presentation of those facts was inappropriate for article content in Wikipedia's editorial voice. You should opinionate in a blog somewhere, not in a Wikipedia article. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 04:47, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
- I made a subsequent edit to this article here. Feel free to improve it. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 05:44, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
RE:Skyline High School
Hi Mitchell. I would first like to apologize for any inconvenience my edits on the Skyline High School page has caused. However, SC12 is a very important event, especially since this high school was the very first to compete, in a college competition. What follows is a possible redo of my previous edit; please tell me if it needs to be improved to be on the Skyline High School page. Thanks.
Skyline garnered much attention in November of 2012 for being the first high school in the world to participate in SC’s Student Cluster Competition[1], in the LittleFe Track. They took home an honorable mention for "coming out of nowhere and taking a significant lead."[2] They competed against other universities, including the University of Utah and Slippery Rock University from Pennsylvania.
71.219.157.247 (talk) 06:06, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
- Hi. It looks OK to me. My revert of your edit looks to have been done too quickly -- I did it while patrolling for vandals using WP:Huggle, and it looks like I clicked to revert your edit without digging into relevant background (WP articles about high schools in the U.S. are prime vandalism targets for U.S. high school students). Your wikilinking SC in your revised version helped a lot. Cheers. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 06:50, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
- Awesome, thank you! 71.219.157.247 (talk) 07:21, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Wtmitchell. I've removed the "Unconventional manifesto" section from this page as it's a direct copyright violation of the party's website; please don't put it back again in the same form. Cheers, Yunshui 雲水 08:25, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
- This appears to be related to [this reversion. I'm not a mind reader. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 11:53, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
- No, I understand that. I didn't for a moment think that you'd added the offending text yourself, it looked as though you were making a good-faith edit to restore a blanked section. I just wanted to ensure that you were aware of the copyvio; I assumed you weren't. Sorry I didn't make that clear above. Yunshui 雲水 11:59, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
- OK. Thanks. Sorry about being so curt. WP:Huggle patrolling tends to (for myself, anyhow) involve hasty decisions. The trick is to minimize those. Good info in the edit summaries helps there. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 12:04, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

Re: Message re. Middle High German verbs
"To know how" is a legitimate infinitive, just like "to be of use", "to grant" or "to need". "Knowing how to do things" says the same thing roundabout and breaks the pattern of the paragraph. 37.190.158.177 (talk) 23:42, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
- This apparently concerns this revert. What caught my eye was "to know how (to do sth)", which looked like gibberish. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:46, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

FYI: Angels in Judaism page under revision
You may notice that the Angels in Judaism page is being extensively revised. Students are working on it as a class project, and will present their work on Wednesday. If there is anything outrageous that can't be allowed to "stand" until Wednesday, you can let me know on my talk page rather than deleting the section outright.
Thank you! MTB2112 (talk) 06:35, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
- I had reverted this edit to that article while doing vandalism patrol -- the changes to the section headings had caught my eye. While that reversion was in progress, I picked up on the fact that the edit I had reverted was part of a series of changes, so I undid my reversion to get out of the way of that in-progress series of changes.

Dubitatio editor
Dubitatio is a figure of speech, and i thought it should be placed on Wikipedia as such. However, thank you for your concern. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.100.154.23 (talk • contribs) 07:59, December 12, 2012 (UTC)
- This is apparently concerning this revert. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 01:40, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Reverted edits
Why were my edits in the article Rishabha reverted? You reported vandalism, but I just added references and changed the structure of article a bit. I have re-instated the references. Can you tell what specifically was unconstructive in my edits? Rahuljain2307 (talk) 14:59, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
- This apparently concerns this revert. I took another look at that revert, and see that it was clearly an error on my part. This was done during a WP:Huggle session, and probably came from a mis-click during that session. That explanation of the error does not excuse it. I apologize for the error. I see that you've added the material which my mistaken revert removed back into the article. Again, my apologies for the error. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:04, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

Radke
I used to be so fucked up on drugs. I was doing heroin, Oxycontin, cocaine all mixed together. I should be dead, actually. I overdosed in 2005 on Oxy and Xanax, which is a lethal combination. I took three shots of vodka and I don’t remember taking the Xanax. But when I got to jail, I just said, ‘I hate all drugs’ and I stayed away from ‘em. The title of the album is a reference to myself. I looked in the mirror one day, saw death staring me in the face, and realized I’m my own downfall. The lyrics are me talking to myself, realizing what I’ve become. I realized that instead of the drugs being the problem, the actual problem was me and that I could change it. I told myself that when I got out, no matter how I felt, I wasn’t going to do any drugs. I was afraid I was fooling myself because I’ve always been told that’s the kind of person I am. But I haven’t even thought of scoring drugs. I have no cravings or anything.

Sandy Hook
Somehow, you accidentally reverted the shooter's father's name back into the article with your edit here. Just wanted to let you know so that you had a chance to fix it. Regards, ~~~~
