Groupers

Hello, and thanks for your edit. The issue of grouper attack on humans/divers is not a joke. There have been a few instances, and at least one fatality that I am aware of, from attack by large groupers/jewfish. I did not write this, nor have I looked for any references yet (though I have seen them in the recent past). Let's keep it for now, and you or I or someone else will hopefully add the reference link soon.DiverDave (talk) 04:55, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Soybean Reference

On your edit to Soybean#Phytoestrogen, did you have or purchase the full article? If so, did the article body same something different than the abstract? Soybean has lots of messed up references, please help out if you can. Thanks! UncleDouggie (talk) 13:16, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Regarding the Soybeans, I think you do need to purchase the article to get it. I'm university affiliated so can get to them for free. The article pretty much goes through a range of foods, and finds Soy to be magnitudes above other foods in phytoestrogens (Although there are a few odd things that are also high as well). It states that soy products is the highest in Isoflavones, which have been connected to the oestrogen effects. The way the wiki article was written made it sound as if soy products weren't really exceptional, which was a bit misleading. (I'm making a bit of a habit of checking the 'purchase article' references, as they're difficult to check and can be easily abused - you can point us to anything that you think is a bit suss). Cheers Clovis Sangrail (talk) 14:17, 5 September 2009 (UTC) This page has information taken from the same article:[reply]

Thanks! I made a small cleanup on your new text. I'll let you know as I come across other questionable refs. Cleaning them up is big job that I'm taking my time on. UncleDouggie (talk) 05:57, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Don't mind at all

Thanks for the revert. My goodness, such language—and spelling. Cheers, Favonian (talk) 14:00, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are not allowed to edit. Plain simple as that. You have been banned from Wikipedia which means as a community, your edits have been found unhelpful to the project. Elockid (Talk·Contribs) 14:15, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Attacking other user

Did you read the attacking stereotypical rubbish that i was replying to. Your a new user yourself, so i will take your comment with a grain of salt. Oz Juice24 (talk) 02:14, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Clovis can you explain why you just undid an edit on St John's International School Thailand and replaced it with the original inaccurate information? I currently am a A Level student at the school...have you ever been to the school? How do I give you a warning for reposting inaccurate information myself? best regards lUHG 17/01/2010 —Preceding unsigned comment added by LUHG (talkcontribs) 05:17, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, actually there are some ghits for this search [1], although none is reliable source. This is why I have AfDed it. Thanks. --Defender of torch (talk) 01:49, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, the site strepulsion.org is bullshit. I am tagging the article for CSD (hoax). --Defender of torch (talk) 02:12, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

db-move

Hi Clovis, I noticed that you placed the {{db-move}} tag on the page Gender discrimination in pakistan. However, db-move is intended to be used on pages that needs to be speedily deleted to make way for a move. In other words, if there is already a page at the target destination for the move, then that page should be tagged with db-move. Since the page Gender discrimination in Pakistan (with the proper capitalization) did not exist, an autoconfirmed user such as yourself can perform the move without the need for tagging any of the pages. Regards, decltype (talk) 17:28, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see. No wonder you got a bit confused :) decltype (talk) 12:43, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Patrick McGorry

Well done, but I feel this editor may not be very cooperative, their FIRST edit was to put the somewaht unbalanced POV material on this new BLP. Has already reverted added it twice --220.101.28.25 (talk) 10:41, 25 January 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Had a similar issue when working on Simon Binks (Australian Crawl), in that particular case he lodged a formal complaint with the foundation via OTRS. All I can say is that we try and work with BOYS MANAGEMENT and rather than accusing him of conflict of interest, we try to get him to assist in fixing any problems with the article. Some of the edits he has made have in fact been useful (i.e spelling of band members names etc). Will include comments on his talk page as well as on the article's talk page. Dan arndt (talk) 04:50, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It was really weird but had been thinking about what ever happened to Boys & thought I do a quick search on WP - that's when I saw the badly mangled article (which had only recently been posted) - given that I spend a lot of time editing Australian musical articles I thought I'd give it the once over. Unfortunately BOYS MANAGEMENT doesn't seem to have the same views on my editing skills - guess we'll just have to keep watch and hope that he asks for assistance.

Euclid Wiki

You just reverted the wiki of euclid - the link i try to add from a relaible scientific ressource on historical information. Before i did this i tried to discuss the matter on the talk page, hence it got also deletd by novangelis. And beside i present overwhelming evidence and diffrent kind of ressources such as oxford journal, google books or perseus - they do not seem willing to cooperate.

You suggest to discuss this on the talk page of euclid. The problem is, since at least 12 month the user Novangelis and Finell suppress any evidence about euclid, which is not of western origin. Almost the complete talk page focus on this. However as there have been many useres before me trying to find a consensus and given the arguments and way both users engage diffrent opinion, there is little change to be expected. Please visit the link in question and restore this link. I just wanted to file a full protection for this wiki, to keep those useres from suppressing historical data or ressources. Now i fear your warning of becomeing banned, because i want to at least to add a link to this information - which is one of the leading ressources in the world in this regards. Please consider to re-add the link and protecting the wiki. --DuKu (talk) 01:30, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

Civility

Hello Clovis, you just edited my user page and claim i engage in edit warring and my edits are often with conflict. Please read see the history of the wiki ExxonMobil, before you make claims, which not correspond with wiki rules. Thank you. --DuKu (talk) 09:27, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since a few days the user Clovis Sangril seems to follow my edits and beside he is thankful for my cooperation, he post over and over bad researched wiki policy notices. So please stop insulting me with wilde claims.You can read his accusations on my talk page. --DuKu (talk) 09:50, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chile related pages

Concensus need not be reached regarding the actual content of sources. An admin has already intervened and that discussion is on Talk:Chilean people. The users in question are deliberately misrepresenting the sources. My changes are to reflect the sources. Read the sources yourself, then read what their edits allege the sources say. I actually encourage you to contribute to stopping this edit war. Thank you for the message. Al-Andalus (talk) 13:16, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Al- Going by the same pattern edits that you have made to Articles about White Chileans all over the place you are POV pushing with a clear agenda and is using WP:SYNTHESIS to push your agenda like you did here [[3]] and are doing at all articles that have to do with this population this is clear violation of WP:NPOV and the previous policy not to mention you have been edit warring as well--Wikiscribe (talk) 21:06, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Force Fin

People come to wikipedia for information, perhaps more information should be added to give that to readers in the other sections, instead of deleting verifiable, accurate, descriptive, and cited information within the Force Fin section.

The Force Fin material was originally written by an unknown, unaffiliated member of wikipedia. Somewhere along the line it was deleted. I simply came in last November, using the original wikipedia material as my basis, cited references verifying and clarified some details with encyclopedic material.

A further search of the MOMA libraries as well as those at the Metropolitan Museumk of Modern Art will lead you to the items within the collection. Try searching under Bob Evans as the Artist. If it is a statement of fact, its relevant. I will disclose I am a principal in Force Fin, and that gives me the authority to verify information written as to being accurate and factual.

Force Fins are different than other fins, that is most likely why a section was dedicated to it by an unknown, unrelated wikipedia member initially. Those differences, in essence, only are stated in the text -- open foot pocket - what does that mean? It is described with reference to wikipedia defintions of the metatarsals, phlanges, etc., and direct text from patents cited with reference to the PTO. Polyurethane is distinctly used in manufacture and cited within wikipedia definition of the same. Power and recovery is essence of product differentiation and cited from PTO records... that's what you're deleting, and that is distinct, definitional, factual, and its blanket removal is hereby noticed as vandalism.

If there is something wrong with the way in which I am using this talk section, please let me know, or permission to move this text to its proper location, with advisement to me, is given. I don't have the luxury of spending as much time on the computer as others, and do my best to be appropriate. WatermanFF3 (talk) 17:34, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a discussion at Talk:Swimfin#Force fins which is related to the rewrite you did on the Force fins section. Your input would be welcome. --RexxS (talk) 19:11, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your rollback request

Hello Clovis Sangrail, I have granted rollback rights to your account in accordance with your request. Please be aware that rollback should be used to revert vandalism/spam/blatantly unconstructive edits, and that using it to revert anything else (such as by revert-warring or reverting edits you disagree with) can lead to it being removed from your account...sometimes without any warning, depending on the admin who becomes aware of any misuse. If you think an edit should require a reason for reverting, then don't use rollback and instead, use a manual edit summary. For practice, you may wish to see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 19:10, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Google Apps

Hey. I saw that you have been active on Google Apps; would you mind taking a look at this edit? I'm pretty sure it violates WP:ADVERT, but another set of eyes would be helpful. Thanks! — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 13:00, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Smart Chef

Hello Clovis Sangrail. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Smart Chef, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. Thank you. GedUK  20:58, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Acupuncture/Hippotherapy

Just curious ...

Why are you reading articles on subjects you don't know anything about and wondering if you should delete "huge swathes" of them? Before you label something "pseudoscience", don't you think you should have some knowledge of the subject matter?

Why don't you try building some articles instead of tearing articles down? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.161.239.243 (talk) 01:43, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there Clovis. Instead of blanking inappropriate pages, as you did at Jamie tranter, you can tag them for deletion under CSD, using one of the templates listed under each criterion. Make sure you understand the CSD before using them though! Best, - Kingpin13 (talk) 11:56, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, that's fine. Although you don't have to use the codes, you can use shortcuts such as {{Db-attack}} (although memorising the codes is more fun imo ;D). Thanks, I'm using a tool I wrote, which helps speed things up :). - Kingpin13 (talk) 12:04, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Gogo Dodo pages

Re your message: That's pretty funny. Doesn't make much sense, but still pretty funny. Kingpin13 blocked all of the accounts and two other admins declined the illogical unblock requests. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 18:38, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why a company is not notable ?

Dear Clovis,

I have added a well-known french company in the List of bioinformatics companies. I do not understand why you have removed it. Why do you consider it not notable, whereas other company like Genomatix are notable ?
