== Category:Millennial Wikipedians ==


==Welcome!==

'''''Hi Jpers36''''', and a '''[[Wikipedia:Welcome%2C_newcomers|warm welcome to Wikipedia]]!''' I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! '''[[WP:BB|Be Bold]]'''! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

<blockquote><table width="400"><tr><td>
<ul style="font-size:85%;padding:.3em 0 .3em 25px;margin:0">

<li> '''[[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]''', how articles should be written.</li>
</td></tr></table></blockquote>

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some '''[[Template:Opentask|open tasks]]''' that you may want to help out :

<blockquote><table width="400"><tr><td>

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on '''[[WP:TP|talk pages]]''', simply type four tildes, like this: <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my '''[[User_talk:Mailer_diablo|talk page]]'''. Once again, welcome! =)

==[[Dogwood]]==
Please hold off changing every link from Dogwood to Dogwood (plant), they'll all have to be reverted as soon as this silly disambig page for nothing is reverted. Thanks - [[User:MPF|MPF]] 16:43, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

:Basically this form of promotion is spam vandalism. All the dogwood entries have been patiently reverted by adults. --[[User:Wetman|Wetman]] 17:18, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
::It's not "promotion", my intent was not vandalism, and attacks against my age are childish. Dogwood (the band) should be included in Wikipedia, as they are a very influential Christian punk band. It seemed to me that the best way to add the band would be by adding a stub band page, adding a disambig page, fixing the link to the plant, and then fleshing out the band page. I apologize if I was wrong in these steps, but there's no need to be rude.

:::Sorry if I was a bit rude. The usual way to add something like this where one meaning is markedly more significant than the other is to add a note at the top of the page to a disambiguation page; take a look at [[Apple]], where there's a link to [[Apple (disambiguation)]] which then leads you to a set of links to the computers and so on - [[User:MPF|MPF]] 17:48, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== Bad first experience ==

Hi, I hope you don't mind me editing your User page to vouch for your ''[[bona fides]]''; if you do then I'm sure you'll clean it up. Sorry you had a bad experience with [[User:Wetman]]. He is in clear violation of [[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers]], although I suppose that's not a binding standard? At any rate, I've only been here a couple of weeks so I guess it's not my place to point it out directly (although I have no qualms about anyone seeing it on this public user_talk page).

At any rate, welcome to Wikipedia, thanks for the work you've already done on improving Christian music stuff, and let me know if I can do anything to help you. (Also, [[Christian punk]] could really use help -- I've been trying singlehandedly, but it still has huge holes.)

Take care, [[User:PhilipR|PhilipR]] 20:56, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== Christian rock cat ==

Thanks for adding all the stuff to the C-rock category. I monitor it every few days and was surprised to find that it had roughly doubled in size over the last week. Great to have you on board. On a side note, I really don't think Dogwood is really that influential-they aren't that well known even on the CCM circuit (I can only name one song of theirs offhand).[[User:Kertrats|Kertrats]] 15:56, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== Date wikification. ==

Jpers36,

Thank you for your recent edits on [[Mae]] and related topics.

I just wanted to let you know that typically dates are wikified like so:

<nowiki>[[February 26]], [[2004]]</nowiki>.

This is because if the entire date is wikified, a broken link is created (by default, all <font color="red">red</font> links are broken). Wikifying dates as shown above will create two working (<font color="blue">blue</font>) links, one for the month and date, and one for the year.

If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Sincerely, <span style="background-color: lightslategray;">&nbsp;[[User:Short Verses|'''<font color="white">Short Verses</font>''']]&nbsp;</span> [[User talk:Short Verses|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] 00:37, Jun 19, 2005 (UTC)

==Clueless Newbies & The Pit Bull Patrol==

I saw your nomination of [[User:ConeyCyclone]] on [[Wikipedia:Clueless newbies]], and since you described yourself as a clueless newbie too, I wanted to drop by and say hi. Now that I've seen what you've been through, I'm glad I did. Don't let the grumpy RC patrolers get you down; just because the [[Wikipedia:RC patrol|Pit Bull Patrol]] convenes the [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|Inquisition]] doesn't mean we all do it. Some of them haven't slept in years; its their [[Wikipedia:Wikipediholic|wikiholism]]. (You always hurt the ones you should love.)

In the meantime, continue to [[Wikipedia:Be bold in updating pages|'''be bold''']]. ''Damn the Pit Bulls, full speed ahead!'' If you have any more problems with having your head bitten off, let me know and I'll come to your defense. -- [[User:Essjay|Essjay]] · [[User_talk:Essjay| Talk]] 07:06, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)

== WikiChristian ==

Hi

I notice that you are a Christian. Come and take a look at [http://www.wikichristian.org www.wikichiristian.org] and consider contributing. It is still small and has very few users. I'm praying that God helps the site to grow and become a forum for Christians to write and read about all aspects of Christianity. It is not meant to be a copy of wikipedia. It is not meant to be purely an encyclopedia. For any given topic, it will hopefully contain a short summary of the topic followed by links to many sub-articles - some containing simple facts; some sharing experiences; some explaining a particular viewpoint and so on.

Take for example the article on [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=Grace grace]. It has various "Definition and explanation" articles explaining the meaning of grace. It has a few "Articles / opinions" about grace. It has links for "Quotes' about grace and links to "Songs about grace". The site is also meant to be a resource site containing information about Christian texts, literature, art, music, radio, television and internet.

Take a look at the example article on the song [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=Shout_to_the_Lord_%28song%29 Shout to the Lord]. It has links to information about the song, lyrics and chords to the song and links for comments or opinions to be expressed about the song.

The site also intends to explain the history of important events in Christianity. Take a look at [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=The_Reformation The Reformation] section. This has links for "Overview" articles, "Opinion" articles, "Quotes" and "Travel" stories.

The site intends to be a reference about major (and minor) figures in the Bible, the early church and today. Take a look at [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=John_Stott John Stott]. It contains "Overview" and "Opinion" articles. It contains texts of "Talks" given by John Stott and links to "Books" by John Stott.

In summary, I suppose, that my hope is that WikiChristian becomes a major reference point for Christians and non-Christians to go to find about any issue related to Christianity. I don't believe that this should be carbon-copy of wikipedia. It should resemble it in some ways, but in other ways, it should be quite different in structure and evolution. I realize that there are different views about different topics - and accordingly, there should always be the opportunity for a person to write his personal view under the "Opinion and articles" section of any given page.

I would love you to take a look at wikichristian and contribute. If you don't wish to contribute, would you consider visiting it's world wide directory of churches we are setting up and entering your church into the database. The point of the database is to state the location of a church with the service times and add a brief description of the church. You can take a look for example at: [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=Directory_listing_of_churches_around_the_world Church Directory] -> [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=Churches_in_Australia Australia] -> [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=Churches_in_South_Australia South Australia] -> [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=Churches_in_Adelaide_and_its_suburbs Adelaide] -> [http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=St_Matthew%27s_and_St_Bart%27s_Anglican_Churches_in_Adelaide%2C_South_Australia St Matthew's Anglican Church]

If you don't wish to contribute to WikiChristian, you could consider one of the other wikis related to Christianity that have been set up by other people. These include: [http://www.theopedia.com/Main_Page Theopedia], [http://theconnexion.net/compass/index.php/Main_Page Compass] or [http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/Main_Page OrthoxWiki].

Thanks

==[[Concerned Alumni of Princeton]]==
From the Tribune article: "The organization was founded in 1972, the year Alito graduated from Princeton, by alumni upset that the school had recently begun admitting women". I'm going to put back the co-education reference. [[User:Tlogmer|Tlogmer]] 16:39, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

== Hurricane Katrina ==

Sorry for the misunderatanding, but I'm not a vandal. I really want to contribute with
Wikipedia. I have almost ayear reading the Wikipedia without being an user, but I don't know how to do. Please understand me, I have only one month in these project and I'm reading the policies right now. I hope you understand. [[User:Juan andrés|juan andrés]] 01:21, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

== Thank you ==

Thanks for your great edits and catching a lot of the vandalism that goes on here. There are times that Wikipedia can drive me crazy, but it's because of people like you that this site can be self-regulated. Thanks for the hard work. [[User:Giles22|Giles22]] 22:46, 24 January 2006 (UTC)


== Thank You, Thnak you 100 times ==

I am just going to change it back.

== Chicago State ==

Thanks for the reverts, I suppose I did jump the gun a little with the early removal. [[User:CraigRNielsen|Craig R. Nielsen]] 15:54, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

== VUPD controversy and such ==

Thanks for the message. I felt like putting this whole thing in context, and that's why I put in the information on Kinsey Hall. (I took Interpretation in the Social Sciences last year, and our group project was to look into the causes of the fire there in 1970.) I don't have my sources nor the old paper in front of me right now; once I have time I will try to put in citations and make it, well, more accurate. But I agree, there was a lot of bias in some of the older versions of the article, which I'm pretty sure were all done by the Valpo Facebook group members (the 152.228.***.** anonys give it away) to argue their side of the story and discredit the VUPD (and then, on their Facebook page, brag that their case was large enough for mention on Wikipedia ...). Pretty much, this whole episode the past two weeks is dwarfed by the issues from 35 years ago, and I doubt 35 years from now many people will care that a gun happened to be drawn on someone during a suspected drug bust. [[User:Spell4yr|Spell4yr]] 19:57, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

== Your hasty decision... again to delete my contributions. ==

[[chemtrail_theory]]

What is the deal with completely deleting my entry out of that article without a good explaination. There are already many links in the article that source things. I don't think it would be appropriate to source every sentence. Then what would the purpose of wikipedia be? I see many other edit histories of that article that are attacked as if somebody is trying to censor a controversial topic rather than make a more suitable article. Somebody actually took the time to do all the google searches sourced in my image and claim it's a possible copyright infringement when the images were taken from public domain and that I'm supposed to go through some lenthy process to prove why it should stay. This sounds like a guilty until proven innocent situation. Still, just because you don't like the topic is no reason to attack my contributions. — (Unsigned comment by [[User:Bart80|Bart80]].)

Reply to your reply: You claim I am outlandishly lying about my image. I gave sources for all 3 images so that anybody could find them on the Internet. There is no copyright issue with this guy's blog. It is somebody taking photos on vacation, there is nothing stated there about copyrighting his vacation photos. Nobody copyrights that piece of earth either. These images are of nothing remotely controversial of copyright infringement. Nobody would ever care in a million years. How is that not public domain by your definition? I don't believe anybody would even jump on google to research such a photo that obviously poses no risk to copyright infringement without a pretense for wanting it removed for other reasons. I see you as having nothing better to do than continually check that particular article and deleting any contribution I may make as a whole no matter how much I refine it. I see that article has been under attack before by looking at the edit history. Instead of saving and building upon new discoveries and pieces of information, they are hastily deleted. This leads me to believe that this place is just bent on destroying articles on controversial topics such as that one. If my time and help is not appreciated here, lots of luck.

Thank you for helping with this article; hopefully it can end an edit war. It needs info and more pictures, so if you ever have some extra time, feel free to continue. --[[User:Iriseyes|Iriseyes]] 22:29, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
==Image tagging for Image:Southpark bush.jpg==

== Chicago Blackhawks ==

[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chicago_Blackhawks&diff=93894400&oldid=93769920 This] certainly is a good compromise as far as I'm concerned and I added the information on a couple of pages but was immediately reverted. I have raised the point there : [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Team pages format]], maybe you could give your opinion. [[User:86.192.127.194|86.192.127.194]] 20:54, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

==Fair use rationale for [[:Image:Southpark bush.jpg]]==
[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|70px|left]]
Thanks for uploading or contributing to '''[[:Image:Southpark bush.jpg]]'''. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is no [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline|explanation or rationale]] as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|boilerplate fair use template]], you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found [[WP:FURG|here]].

Please go to [[:Image:Southpark bush.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline |fair use rationale]]. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|my contributions]]" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

== [[The Final Chapter (Demon Hunter album)|The Final Chapter]] ==

whatever works man, honestly I'm just trying to contribute.

==[[Flash (1997 film)]]==
Hey there, I was curious to know why you added the NPOV tag to this article. I don't have a particular interest or knowledge in this film (I was looking for [[Adobe Flash]], got to [[Flash]] and then thought, hey weird, a 1997 film?). Anyway, the article needs work, but it seems to me that its simply the last 2 sentences that are POV (and smack of copyright vio, though I didn't find it.) Anyway, I pulled out the commentary from the last section, sewed the thing up with the info supplied (I have not seen the film, and frankly, don't care to) and removed your tag. Let me know if you disagree. Cheers. [[User:Dina|Dina]] 22:54, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

I've tried using the discussion page.
I've even tried using neutral colors.
He's campaigning for the change of Yankee player colors. He's even changed Don Mattingly's colors (a career Yankee). He's also using sockpuppets, i.e., joeidaho.
[[User:Mghabmw|Mghabmw]] 19:34, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

It's not just Joe Girardi, it's multiple players. He's anti-Yankee and that's his only reasoning. Any other reason, fine. Let's just leave the colors neutral until resolved. I posted this under the discussion page. [[User:Mghabmw|Mghabmw]] 19:44, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

==Questioning minor 1st paragraph edits?==
Re: [[John Roberts]], [[John Paul Stevens]], [[Antonin Scalia]], [[Anthony Kennedy]], [[David Souter]], [[Clarence Thomas]], [[Ruth Bader Ginsburg]], [[Stephen Breyer]], [[Samuel Alito]], [[Sandra Day O'Connor]]<br>
This is a small matter. I don't understand the reasons for [[User:Sjrplscjnky|Sjrplscjnky]]'s recent minor edits of articles about each of the Justices of the Supreme Court. After some time, there has been no response to inquiries posted on this editor's talk page nor has there been feedback from similar postings on the talk pages of each of the nine articles about a sitting Justice and the one about retired Justice O'Connor. Rather than simply reverting this "improvement," I thought it best to solicit comment from others who might be interested. I found your name amongst others at [[Talk:Supreme Court of the United States]].

I'm persuaded that [[User:Sjrplscjnky|Sjrplscjnky]]'s strategy of introducing academic honors in the first paragraph is unhelpful in this narrow set of articles -- that is, in Wikipedia articles about Justices of the Supreme Court. I think my reasoning might well extend as well to others on the Federal bench. In each instance, I would question adding this information only in the first paragraph -- not elsewhere in the article.

In support of my view that this edit should be reverted, please consider re-visiting articles written about the following pairs of jurists.
:* A1. [[Benjamin Cardozo]]
:* A2. [[Learned Hand]]
::* B1. [[John Marshall Harlan]]
::* B2. [[John Marshall Harlan II]]
The question becomes: Would the current version of the Wikipedia article about any one of them -- or either pair -- be improved by academic credentials in the introductory paragraph? I think not.

Perhaps it helps to repeat a wry argument Kathleen Sullivan of Stanford Law makes when she suggests that some on the Harvard Law faculty do wonder how [[Antonin Scalia]] avoided learning what others have managed to grasp about the processes of judging? I would hope this anecdote gently illustrates the point.

Less humorous, but an even stronger argument is the one [[Clarence Thomas]] makes when he mentions wanting to return his law degree to Yale.

As you can see, I'm questioning relatively trivial edit; but I hope you agree that this otherwise plausible "improvement" should be removed from introductory paragraphs of ten articles. If not, why not?

Would you care to offer a comment or observation? --[[User:Ooperhoofd|Ooperhoofd]] ([[User talk:Ooperhoofd|talk]]) 20:32, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi, we both work on the Baseball top 500 HR list. Is there a "list" of active players, so that we know who to take off when the season begins? Thanks and keep up the good work, [[User:Happy138|Happy138]] ([[User talk:Happy138|talk]]) 08:26, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

==FIRE==
Hi, I meant for the details of the affiliations to be within the footnote - I see it as less inflammatory that way, not giving "undue weight" to criticism. It is fact that those people had the jobs they had, but the article on FIRE need not necessarily bludgeon us with those points in the introduction. Your view? (here or at talk).

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have '''feedback''' on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on [[User_talk:SuggestBot|SuggestBot's talk page]]. Thanks from [[User:ForteTuba|ForteTuba]], SuggestBot's caretaker.

==Notability==
Thanks for your suggestions on [[Kemetic Orthodoxy]] and [[Tamara Siuda]]. However I am concerned by your suggestions that these topics are not notable. I hope that this is not an attack on any religion that does not match one's one. I don't see similar contributions on other religion wiki pages (such as [[Buddhism]], [[Shinto]], [[Taoism]], [[Islam]], [[Judaism]], etc.), so I hope that isn't the case. Please tell me why you think the pages are not notable, so that hopefully they can be corrected. However the many people who have worked on them and the many more people who have used them do not seem to agree. Please let me know.

I apologize for the current state of the band articles for Underoath and As I Lay Dying. The reason I'm apologizing is because I know you edited the page more than I did. I wasn't able to keep up the argument for those pages. Too many editors had a POV that I couldn't beat and they have this odd definition for Christian music. They state a "Christian band does not play Christian music." I don't know, I gave up after that because I found it laughable... Anyways, just apologizing that I couldn't keep the Christian tags up there.

Juan Pierre

I was just reverting improperly reverted edits, but my understanding from the original edit summary is not that the mlb page shouldn't be linked to, but that that is the mlb page for the Florida Marlins, a team that he no longer plays for. Wouldn't it be appropriate to provide a current mlb link? Miss Mondegreen talk  13:53, July 25 2007 (UTC)
