At [[Talk:Mark Z. Jacobson]], an editor mentions two articles he's edited in Dutch.

Your change of the article's name from Dorit Rubinstein Reiss to Dorit Reiss was inappropriate. You should have discussed it with someone. Her formal name in professional circles is Dorit Rubinstein Reiss, not the truncated, and frankly unacceptable, name you used. You might have taken a bit of your time to put it on talk? The problem is that I don't know how to revert your error.

I thought one of the primary attributes of Wikipedia is that we discuss big changes. And you changed someone's name arbitrarily. Explain to me why you did this? Oh wait. I don't care. SkepticalRaptor (talk) 05:40, 4 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm willing to explain, but if you don't really care and are just here to voice your frustration, I won't bother. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 10:08, 4 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think the redirect should be the other way, as she typically identifies as Dorit Rubinstein Reiss. I can fix that for you if you want? Guy (Help!) 20:18, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have evidence for that? In that case I would be fine with it, otherwise I would rather maintain the simple name. Greetings, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 20:40, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Humanism Ireland cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Humanism Ireland cover.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 04:05, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Just saw that you created a page about Marsh, but I'm not entirely convinced that he's independently notable. Almost all of the sources are only mentions of him or pieces written by him, and none appear to be directly about him. I'm tempted to AfD the article but I know you've put a lot of work into it so wanted to get your thoughts on the sourcing first. Thanks, Sam Walton (talk) 10:36, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What would convince you he is independently notable then? Two BBC radio interviews, at leat five BBC news articles, 2 in the Telegraph, 2 in the Mirror, 2 in the Daily Mail, 1 by Huffington Post UK. All of those are national news media in the UK and not written by, but about him. Are those articles all entirely about him? No, but they don't have to be: "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it need not be the main topic of the source material." He acts as a spokesperson for both the MSS and the GTS in many instances, or leads campaigns, projects and investigations. The Olivia Solon article is entirely based on Marshall's investigation, half of the Penman article as well. Others like the Damien Gayle give him quite some space to explain his opinion on the main topic of the article. Also, his Stockholm lecture is broadcast by the Swedish public broadcasting organisation. I think that's rather solid, but I'm interested to hear your opinion. I'm somewhat surprised that you would raise this question, seeing your own excellent article on the Good Thinking Society, the sources and contents of which partly overlap with Marshall's page because they're closely intertwined.

Request for Help on Sources

Hi! I've read your article Template:Ancient Syria and Mesopotamia. It is an excellent chart and may be the only territorial timeline in EN wiki. I would like to male a territorial timeline myself: could you share me the sources you used to make this timeline? Thank you!Ez zjc333 (talk) 06:01, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Ez,
Thanks for the compliment. I used primarily Dutch language sources, but it shouldn't be a problem to find the same historical data in English works.
  • L. de Blois & R.J. van der Spek, Een kennismaking met de Oude Wereld (2004). Bussum: Uitgeverij Coutinho.
  • Encarta-encyclopedie Winkler Prins (1993–2002). Microsoft Corporation/Het Spectrum. (several articles)
  • Xavier Adams & Liek Mulder, Historische Atlas (1997). Baarn: Uitgeverij Nijgh Versluys.
  • Various articles on English and Dutch Wikipedia.
Note that not all dates are accurate to the same degree, and some are arbitrary to a certain extent. There is, for example, no agreement amongst historians when the Neo-Assyrian Empire began: some say around 900 BCE, others place it much later during the reign of Tiglath-Pileser III (r. 745–727 BCE). My dating of the 3 Hittite periods should also be taken with a grain of salt: it's just an approximation. Good luck! Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 14:24, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Nederlandse,
Sorry for my tardiness. Thank you for your response. The suggestion of Encarta is really great. It seems that I cannot readily get the English version of the other two books, but I will keep searching. Once again thank you very much: without you I may even don't know where to start.Ez zjc333 (talk) 09:17, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Skeptic in British English? I'm sceptical about that...

See https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=sceptic%2C+skeptic&year_start=1700&year_end=2008&corpus=18&smoothing=3&share=&direct_url=t1%3B%2Csceptic%3B%2Cc0%3B.t1%3B%2Cskeptic%3B%2Cc0

Evidence of recent pollution of the British spelling :)

However, I'll grant that the OED allows both, though it does say, "Now usually spelt sceptic in the U.K. and British Commonwealth and skeptic in the U.S. Similarly all the derivatives, scepticism/skepticism, etc." Now why would you want to revert my edit? — Hebrides (talk) 21:34, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing this out, I didn't explain myself properly. Indeed, British English literature does not use 'skeptic' more often than 'sceptic' as you show above. But the words don't necessarily mean the same (anymore). Sceptic has a connotation of the categorical dismissal of any claim, negativity and cynicism, whereas skeptic stands for doubting and investigating extraordinary claims, consumer protection and empathy. So it's not merely a case of 'pollution', rather an enrichment of British vocabulary with a new word that sounds the same and is written similar to another word, but has a different meaning.
So, instead of "British English", what I should have said is that the skeptical movement (in the UK and elsewhere, including Australia, Belgium, the Netherlands etc. where the official spelling is also with a c) uses the k almost exclusively instead of the c. For example, every British Skeptics in the Pub event (with the exception of Eastbourne) uses the k (in fact, the London SITP was the first in the world, and has always been spelt with a k). All UK organisations also use the k: Association for Skeptical Enquiry, Edinburgh Skeptics, Glasgow Skeptics, Merseyside Skeptics Society, Hampshire Skeptics, Winchester Skeptics, Berkshire Skeptics etc. In fact, the Merseyside Skeptics run a podcast called Skeptics with a K to make this clear distinction between sceptic and skeptic. In an April Fools episode, they called themselves Sceptics with a C and accepted all extraordinary claims in the media without any critical thought, yet again showing that they see the words as different. That's why I reverted your edit. :) Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 22:22, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Acre, Israel into Ptolemais in Phoenicia. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:24, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ah ok, thanks for mentioning it. I was aware that translations require such an attribution, so unless I translate my own texts, I always add a translate template on the talk page of a new article. As it happens, I did attribute a copied text from Alexander II Zabinas to Seleucid Dynastic Wars half an hour before the edit you mention above as I somehow felt that was appropriate (I didn't know there was actually a rule for this), but didn't do the same with the edit above. I'll try to apply this attribution in edit summaries more consistently in the future. Greetings, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 08:46, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fireworks: Government regulations around the world: Germany

Hello! I'm sorry, but my English is very bad! Some points of Your Edit in Fireworks#Government regulations around the world#Germany are not correct, the reference (http://www.deutschlandfunk.de/feuerwerk-sicher-durch-die-silvesternacht.735.de.html?dram:article_id=406860) contains some mistakes (German journalists mostly are not good informed about fireworks).

In Germany people of 18 years and older (see § 20, 1. SprengV (= Erste Verordnung zu Sprengstoffgesetz)) can buy fireworks of Category F2 on the last three days of the year (29/12 - 31/12). If one of these days is a Sunday the sale starts on 28/12 (see § 22 I, 1. SprengV). People of 18 years and older are allowed to ignite fireworks of Category F2 on 31/12 and 1/1, but it is forbidden to ignite fireworks near churches, hospitals, children's homes, rest homes and flammable buildings (i.e. thatched houses) (see § 23 I + II, 1. SprengV). German municipality are authorised to limit the number of hours for fireworks "mit ausschließlich Knallwirkung" (i.e. firecrackers, Dutch: knalvuurwerk).

In Germany there are some restrictions in Category F2 for people without pyrotechnical license: i.e. No flash powder in Firecrackers and cakes of firecrackers; rockets (Vuurpijlen) are limited to 20g NEM (Kruitgewicht); (see §20 IV, 1. SprengV).

Replaceable fair use File:The Skeptic Australia.png

Thanks for uploading File:The Skeptic Australia.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

Speedy deletion nomination of Fireworks policy in the United States

Hello Nederlandse Leeuw,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Fireworks policy in the United States for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Template:Z166

Hi Fiarchra10003,
I wasn't aware of the text containing a copyvio, as you say I just split it off from the larger article about fireworks because that was becoming a bit too long with all the specific details about legislation.

Help with timeline Pattriottentijd requested

Dear Lion, I noticed that you constructed a timeline for Second Stadtholderless Period, which is quite useful (like the other ones you made that I don't mention). I just finished a complete rewrite of Patriottentijd and that article would profit from a similar banner, as it is impossible to write the narrative completely in the order of the events in a meaningful way, but that way it is difficult for the reader to keep track of the dates. Could I prevail on you to do it, or could you at least help me do it myself? Thanks in anticipation.--Ereunetes (talk) 22:04, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ereunetes, I'm amazed by the work you've done on rewriting Pattriottentijd! I considered doing it myself (I have recently done a small rewrite of the Dutch page), but I focused on a few articles on the side. I'm glad to see you integrated them in the article! Everything is there: Aan het Volk van Nederland, De Post van den Neder-Rhijn, the Battle of Jutphaas, the Prussian invasion of Holland, the Act of Guarantee... Thank you very much.
Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 23:02, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It is just a big excerpt of the relevant chapters in Schama's Patriots and Liberators. Because he has it all :-) Of course, he used a lot of the Dutch sources one would expect, like Colenbrander andPieter Geyl (who should be added to the sources). I am waiting for an antiquarian copy I ordered from England of the Cobban source about Sir James Harris (I could only find snippet views in Google books). I am already salivating about the expected salubrious details :-)--Ereunetes (talk) 22:15, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I think I can make a timeline similar to that of the Stadtholderless Periods or the Coalition Wars. I'll have to decide which events and which periods to include. I'll read your rewritten article first, and then perhaps start on a first concept. I'll get back to you when I've done that. Greetings, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 23:02, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the proofreading. I think the relevant timeline would be March 1784 to August 1788 (although Aan het Volk then falls outside). The main events would be for 1784: March-April Orangist riots in The Hague and Rotterdam (Kaatje Mossel); September-Appointment of the "Constituted" in Utrecht; 9 October-Kettle War; 14 Oct-Duke of Brunswick resigns command of 'sHertogenbosch garrison; December-1st Congress Federation Free Corps Utrecht. 1785: 28 Jan.-election "Commissioned" in Utrecht; 25 Feb.-2nd Congress Free Corps Utrecht; 28 Feb. appointment Jonathan Sichterman in Utrecht; 7-11 March-protests against Sichterman appointment; 12 March Utrecht vroedschap caves in; 18-29 March-"old guard" reverses the decision;14 June-Act of Association and 3rd Congress Free Corps;15 Sept.-Stadtholder leaves The Hague and Amersfoort occupied by States army troops; 4 Oct.-Leiden Draft; 10 Dec.-Rump States of Utrecht move to Amersfoort;20 Dec.-Utrecht vroedschap pledges democratic constitution within 3 months. 1786: 20 March-Utrecht constitution sworn in; May-Hattem/Elburg repudiate right of appointment stadtholder; 2 Aug- Election new Utrecht council; 17 Aug.-Frederick William II succeeds Frederick the Great in Prussia; 4-5 Sept.-Hattem and Elburg occupied by States Army. In reaction Holland troops withdrawn from stadtholder's command; military "Cordon" of Holland and Utrecht; Rhinegrave of Salm in command Patriot troops; 1787:21-26 Feb. pressure by Goudoever c.s. on Amsterdam vroedschap; 3 April-only pensionaries to represent Amsterdam/Dedel tries to conspire with stadtholder; 20-21 April-Act of Qualification and purge of Amsterdam vroedschap; 9 May-Battle of Jutphaas; 13-26 May-Declaratoir of William V; 30 May-"Bijltjes Oproer" Amsterdam; 28 June-Goejanverwellesluis; July-August-Patriot majorities forced in city councils in Rotterdam, Delft, Leiden, Alkmaar, Dordrecht, Hoorn, Monnikendam/Mappa's "Flying Legion"; August-first Prussian ultimatum, ignored by States General; 8 Sept.-final Prussian ultimatum; 13 Sept.-Prussians enter the Netherlands in 3 columns; 14-15 Sept.-evacuation of Utrecht by Patriots who retreat to Amsterdam; 20 Sept.-stadtholder enters The Hague, purge of States of Holland and States General; 27 Sept.-Mappa surrenders Naarden; 1 Oct.-Prussians lay siege to Amsterdam; 10 Oct.-Amsterdam surrenders; Oct.-Dec. purges and riots help convince 40,000 Patriots to flee abroad; Nov.-Van de Spieghel Grand Pensionary; 11 Dec.-Federalist paper.
