Tests of GRT

I have been adding a section with a new table 2 to the site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tests_of_general_relativity You have deleted my addition without consulting me. You sited WP:NOR and WP:SYN. Neither apply. The addition is fully cited, and in a reliable source. The calculation of the precession of perhelion invalidates the conclusions that are drawn in table 1, so it leaves the conclusion to be drawn up to the reader.

Please do not remove my written material. I do not remove your material. D c weber (talk) 02:23, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Please aquaint yourself with wp:NOR and wp:SYN. I have left a third level warning on your talk page. DVdm (talk) 07:26, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

I read the nor site and the material I added was from a reputed Russian scientist and his paper was published on the Cosmology group site for papers. I read the syn and I fail to see where this applies. I only say that the precession of Mercury's orbital parameter of perihelion is very samall and nowhere close to what GRT predicts. Until we get this resolved, I will add a pov header to this page. Not allowing alternate papers that do not agree with the theory of GR is putting a bias to the wiki article.

Dear Mr. DVdm,

Here is an response and edited text user talk:D c weber .72.241.181.142 (talk) 17:34, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Mr. DVdm, Please read the first sentence of the wp:UNDUE that you cited. It specifically mandates "all significant viewpoints". Can we just agree that this viewpoint is needed for this section, so as to comply with NPOV?D c weber (talk) 20:40, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

WP:3RR

Hi there - just a note to say please be careful not to break the three revert rule. You arguably did so at Progress (Take That album) - your reverts may have been justified, but the other editor's additions were not "blatant vandalism", so 3RR applies. --Mkativerata (talk) 00:11, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Ok, thanks. I'll keep this in mind. Some of the edits seemed to be vandalism. I stopped reverting and manually removed the unsourced content. Cheers - DVdm (talk) 00:15, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

The user you were reverting has been blocked now for 24 hours, we do need to take care but trolling repeated no listening additions against policy such as that do imo become vandalistic in nature when repeatedly replaced without effort at discussion in a warring manner such as that, thanks for you contributions.

Verifying my references

I am sending you several emails, which will help you verify my references pertaining to my most recent talk page response over at "Time". ---- Steve Quinn (talk) 05:37, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Message from Frankkfong

Dear Editing User DVdm:

I am using the editing feature on Wikipedia for the first time. My attempts to edit the Calvin cycle page were repeatedly reverted. I would like an explanation, if I may.

I read the Wikipedia Calvin cycle page, and was struck by the fact that between Refs. 1 and 2, the entire body of Calvin et al's original papers on their finding of the light reaction in photosynthesis were omitted. I.e., Refs. 1 and 2 were the sole sources for the Wikipedia presentation of the Calvin cycle.

I inserted the omitted body of original papers by Calvin et al, which refuted the existence of the Calvin cycle in photosynthesis. Apparently these papers were not known to you as Editing User.

I received auto messages stating, first that someone else had edited during the time I was doing my edits and, then, that two of my external links were not allowed. So I removed them all, and re-introduced the edits. Unfortunately, as a result, I received your warning of possibly being blocked for being disruptive.

All of my indicated changes were referenced to reputable journal publications, including Calvin et al's original publications in the permanent literature. I neither intended to be a "vandal," nor "disruptive."

As for another User's (Schmidt?) question, "What is NSFfunding.com," the answer is: NSFfunding.com, a U.S.-based organization under contract with the Internal Revenue Service, is authorized by the United States to detect the use of the Calvin cycle as a means for penetrating the U.S. Treasury. See, The Calvin Cycle Website.

Therefore, I'd appreciate your letting me know why you reverted my edits.

Thanks, Frankkfong (talk) 17:18, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

P.S. After I communicted this talk writeup, I noticed your attribution to me of the headline thing on "Kumbaya." I did not introduce the unsigned "Kumbaya." I am new to all this. Forgive me for having made some inadvertent mistakes, if any.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Frankkfong (talk • contribs)

Hi, I am sure that your contribution ([1], [2], [3]) does not amount to vandalism. The possibly disruptive nature of your third edit, was that you seemed to ignore the warnings on your talk page and re-inserted the content without further comment. It looks like you might have (1) a conflict of interest, and (2) that you are inserting your own orginal research, some of the cited sources being primary sources, whereas we generally prefer secondary sources. It might be a good idea to carefully read some of the articles to which you were pointed in the messages you received on your talk page: every blue link points to the relevant policy/guideline article. If you would like to add some content to an article like you did to Calvin cycle, and which is subsequently questioned, the way to go is to propose it on the article's talk page first, to see what the other contributors think about it and to reach a consensus. As for the addition of your signature, I did not do that. It was automatically generated by a bot. Please sign all talk messages with four tildes (~~~~), and when opening a new thread on a talk page, please provide a section header, as is explained in the talk page guidelines. I have inserted a header for you. DVdm (talk) 19:18, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

S.E. Cupp

I have tried to add a single line to the S.E. Cupp page, but it continues to be removed. I was told it needed a reference, so I provided one. The line was still deleted. The line is not of opinion, but is an honest assessment of her after reading article after article (I can't reference them all) and her book "Losing Our Religion." I would like to know why this is continuously removed. 64.191.172.126 (talk) 18:24, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

The source that you cite is not a wp:reliable source, and I'm sure that the statement you try to add ("she rarely says anything positive about Atheism") does not appear in her book. DVdm (talk) 18:31, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Heads up

Just letting you know that I have mentioned edits by you here. It seems right to alert you about this on your talk page rather than discuss you behind your back. Wenttomowameadow (talk) 15:05, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. Replied here and, after remembering something, here. DVdm (talk) 15:19, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

iOS

Can you read? Can't you see the content of 4.2.1 was just copyed and the table was broken? --139.18.148.186 (talk) 19:13, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Can you? --139.18.148.186 (talk) 19:18, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

I was too quick. Sorry. Feel free to remove the warning from your talk page. My apologies. DVdm (talk) 19:25, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Fort plank

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Your not in trouble but please explain why every edit since january the 6th on fort plank has been part of an edit war --Lerdthenerd wiki defender 17:54, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. It looks like the issue bas been solved by now. I left a little comment at ANI. Cheers - DVdm (talk) 19:02, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Inertial coordinate system

An editor and I are trying to come up with a way to modify the Inertial frame of reference definition. It currently uses a paraphrasing from Landau and Lifshitz. Based on discussion on the talk page I guess people want to simplify it, or at least have a simplier lead in which is then followed by a stricter definition. Since you were involved in previous discussion, I was wondering if you could please stop by and share opinions on how to word it? FlyingBob (talk) 04:33, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, Bob. I shortly commented here. DVdm (talk) 15:40, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Dreams

You say my contributions are unsourced, but I'm the source, there is no other source on this kind of matter. Chrisnach (talk) 17:52, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

Sure, but —alas— we don't count as a reliable sources for Wikipedia :-) - DVdm (talk) 19:03, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, alas, maybe I should listen to the voices, hehehe, and comit mass murder, then I would get published, right?? By the way where do you live? lol, bye. 94.227.51.235 (talk) 17:13, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Pochhammer symbol

There is an inconsistency between the definition of the Pochhammer symbol and the series expansion of an Hypergeometric function. I changed the index convention in the Hypergeometric Function to make it consistent with the Pochhammer symbol article. Why was this reverted? 130.245.203.227 (talk) 01:39, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Had you given an edit summary, I probably would have checked more closely, but I do owe you an apology. I have reverted my undo and replaced the warning on your talk page with a welcome message. Sorry again and happy editing. DVdm (talk) 10:05, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Windsor Star Page

Any reason why you refuse to allow accurate information on this particular entry? Why make an edit war out of something political/personal? This seems rather against the Wikipedia mission statement. I don't want to have to report you for vandalism. Daarlock (talk) 03:32, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
