A quick question

Hi, I noticed you left two warnings on "User talk:87.54.8.195", and that leads me to ask a question. That IP address belongs to a school (my school). There are over 900 people here using that ip address every day. And though I now realise that there are people at my school who totally disregard for wikipedia, I know that we are many, many, students and teachers here who rely on wikipedia. That's why it would be a real shame if we were blocked. Do you have any suggestion as to what I should do? Is there any chance that you could not ban us? Who should I contact here (I'm still very new to being a user here). I intend to make an announcement at my school and ask people to stop the vandalism, but it's difficult when i don't know exactly who is doing it. Thank you. Dr. Marzipan 11:02, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your response Dr. Marzipan 11:49, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism to William Blake

Thanks for assist. I followed the vandal from his actions on several other pages and was calling for an assist from Admin who last blocked the Vandal IP and couldn't keep up with the vandalism. As you see, she finally saw the pattern and fact he continued to vandalism even after you reverted the pranks. Cheers, HJ 11:53, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Just a tip...

When using certain template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:uw-test1}} instead of {{uw-test1}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Glen 09:49, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Just dropping by to say that I just blocked 89.242.14.38 for 24 hours for the vandalism to your userpage; if it continues and you need the page semi-protected, or if there are other issues related to this that need an administrator, you're welcome to let me know on my talk page and I'll do what I can to help.

McElroy Gang article, AfD, & speedy

I didn't Speedy it since I'm 99% sure I had seen it get speedied once last nigth already, and didn't want to rip the guy's head off without a secondary review by others. If someone makes one, and it gets deleted like that (with speedy/A*), and then remade, should I just re-speedy then? Or send it to afd? thanks! - Denny 14:40, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Templates

Templates are not needed on every nonreferenced sentence because the entire page for Luther Vandross is practically unreferenced. Instead the article has been tagged at the top and adding 1000 "reference needed" all through the article is overkill. It just makes the page look bad and I have seen very few articles this badly done. All others state at the TOP of the section or the page that the section or article does not site it's references. The quality of the article will be improved by removing the countless "citations needed" and placed at the top of the section or the page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.226.14.246 (talk) 03:12, 8 April 2007 (UTC).

regarding your message

Hi, after visiting wikipedia today I saw a new message notification. Apparently somebody with the same IP address as mine, has made a edit to one of the topics and the edit has later been reverted by you. I would just like you to know that this is a proxy and more than one people can be accessing Wiki through it. I hope this vandalism that the editor wrote won't influence all people that use this IP and I hope there won't be any restrictions in the future caused by this childish behaviour. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 217.65.192.44 (talk) 15:47, 28 April 2007 (UTC).

Hello anonymous user. Unfortunately, wikipedia has no way of distinguishing between anonymous users of the same IP address. If vandalism continues to occur from that IP, it may be necessary to block edits from it. This would only restrict editting privileges, and not viewing privileges. If you would like to distinguish yourself from anyone else who shares your IP, you may create an account. Users logged into an account will not be affected by blocks to their IP address.

Regarding the edit to Karoo ISP to which you objected - there had been some confusion between Karoo ISP and the internet service MyKaroo.com. The edit was done in an attempt to address any confusion. Apparently it was not seen in that light and for that I apologize.

When that website meets Wikipedia's notability guideline for websites, then your edits will be appropriate. Until then, it is considered spam. Happy editing. Someguy1221 19:24, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Kopru revisions

Thanks for keeping an eye on newly-created pages. My first draft of my article for "Kopru" was indeed poorly written; I hope that the second draft is a little better.

It's amazing how much one can learn, just by reading the instructions.

Hopefully my contribution will be enough to provoke other, more talented and informed writers to expand on the article. I'm just another fanboy, not a writer.

Anyway, thanks again, and let me know if I still need to put some polish on my article. I'll do my best.

Sources on Reeducation through labor

from 128.170.136.227:

The percentage of the political dissidents currently jailed in Chinese penal system have gravely exaggerated in by west in attempt to demonize China and the actual percentage has been repeatedly quoted by the Chinese media outside mainland China, including those from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and ethnic Chinese media in the United States and Canada. More importantly, these overseas Chinese media is labeled by the Chinese regime as "Anti-China" because of either their pro-democracy stands, or being part of Chinese Democracy Movement itself. These Chinese media includes:

China Spring (Magazine published in USA & Canada) Beijing Spring (Magazine published in USA & Canada) Epoch Times (Newspaper published in USA & Canada) Chinese Daily News (Newspaper published in USA & Canada) Lien Ho Pao (Newspaper published in Taiwan) Content (Magazine published in Hong Kong) Trend (Magazine published in Hong Kong)

Article in these pro Chinese democracy movement publications included the memoirs of those political dissidents who were jailed in the Chinese penal system such as reeducation through labor system, such as those jailed immediately after 1989 Tiananmen Square Protest, and according to these former politica dissidents, the ratio of true political prisoner had never exceeded over 0.2%, and these fact has never been reported in any mainstream / major western media.

As for the general Chinese population's support for harsh penal system and death penalty, there are numerous anonymous surveys done in China, such as those completed by the most famous survey firm in China: Zero Point Investigation. It is important to know that the Chinese populace's general support of harsh penal system and death penalty does not mean the support of the regime, and in fact, there are only 10% approval rate of the current Chinese regime and its cadres as shown in the surveys, the latest of which has just been published in local Chinese newspapers in the United States and Canada this year (2007), such as the Chinese Daily News. Again, this information has not been reported in any mainstream western media because western racists' attempt to demonize China by proclaiming everything is evil in China so the Chinese regime could not have let such surveys be revealed, despite the fact that in reality, such negative opinion regarding the regime is increasingly been allowed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.170.136.227 (talk) 16:56, 11 May 2007 (UTC).

And right there your argument miserably fails WP:V. I am not arguing fact, I am arguing Wikipedia policies and guidelines, as always. It is not Wikipedia's mission to be an arbiter of truth, but verfiability is extremely important, especially when making accusations such as yours. Someguy1221 17:00, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Questions with Wikipedia verification policy

One of the rule listed that English source should be quoted since it is the English version. However, when the English media is unanimously one-sided about a non-English subjec, and the only opposing view is in languages other than English, is it sourcing from non-English media is a violation? If not, how do you source it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.170.136.227 (talk) 20:17, 11 May 2007 (UTC).

It is permitted to make citations to non-English sources but doing such is highly questionable in terms of verifiability and reliability, and for a viewpiont in contradiction to all major English published media, will likely be very ill received. I would suggest looking for help from the Chinese Wikiproject, here. Someguy1221 20:46, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

The Connection

It's actually made in 1961--IMDB lists official release dates as the dates films are made, so sometimes they're a bit off. Hence I put the "release date" in the infobox as 1962, but the film was completed and screened independently in 1961. A good example of this effect in IMDB's taxonomy is Le Petit Soldat, by Godard, which was his second film but is listed as his fourth because it was banned at time of release (it was finally in theatres 3 years later).--Iivishnevetsky 22:40, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Your revert to Big Bang

Their additions weren't vandalism - it's a content dispute. I suspect they are active cosmological researchers so using VP to revert them is unnecessarily provocative. I appreciate they were pushing 3RR but they think we are suppressing their information so edit summaries in these cases are really important. If you could do any reverts the long way with an edit summary it would be appreciated. Thanks. Sophia 05:27, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Considering that the content in question was written as an essay, I felt at the time that using VP was not provacative due to the overhanging POV and OR appearance. I see your point of view though, and will not use VP to revert further such edits. Someguy1221 06:28, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks - I certainly didn't mean you were being provocative but just that that is how they will see it. Anything we can do to not feed their paranoia will be good! Sophia 08:15, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Someguy, I noticed you signed up for a coach. I'm available. I do have a couple of conditions though, and they are that you...

1. don't go for your RfA or accept an RfA nomination until I think you are ready (I generally post my students' RfAs, co-nominating them with the other cocoaches involved their training).
2. take the advice provided by me, your cocoaches, and your fellow students to heart (this will be a group effort).

Please let me know if you agree, and we can get started.

2d, 3d vs 2nd, 3rd

Regarding the use of "2nd" vs "2d," I thought I'd add that a good chunk of military units refer to themselves with these types of numberings. For instance, on Fort Lewis, 2d Infantry Division's sign reads "2d Infantry Divison." Down the street, my unit's sign reads "62d Medical Brigade." The general population may be unaware of the "2d, 3d" rule, but when referring to military units, it might be a good idea to maintain what such military units refer to themselves as.

Well I can't vouch for the signs, but their own website used "2nd." And please note that I was not reverting you out of "general rule" for the population, but rather out of Wikipedia's manual of style for numbers. Although it is also useful to note that rules on what to refer to things as on Wikipedia are trumped by what said things are referred to as in the outside world, should they differ. I won't revert you again, although it would be useful to place your reasoning in the edit summary or the talk page of the article, so it doesn't appear you are just randomly altering the format of the numbers.

Insulin degradation

Hi, thanks a lot for your answer at the reference desk about the degradation of insulin. Do you happen to know a bit more about the mechanism? Does the receptor shuttle the insulin to the inside, or is there a separate insulin channel? The paper you linked to irritated me somewhat, because they use erythrocytes, which I thought don't even respond to insulin. As you see, lots of confusion on my part. Cheers, AxelBoldt 03:20, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I just found this which I think answers my question; it's basically endocytosis of the receptor-insulin complex. Still a bit troubled about the erythrocytes though. AxelBoldt 03:41, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

The paper consistently used the term "erythrocyte extract" and identified the enzymes of interest as cytosolic. This leaves open the possibility that they lack insulin receptors on their membranes. I don't know the answer, although certainly there wouldn't be much sense in their having any. Someguy1221 05:58, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
