Formatting Footnote:Phil Ochs

I'm trying to understand formatting footnotes better. I prefer the style where long cite attributes are put on their own line. What are your preferences?Javaweb (talk) 06:17, 27 December 2010 (UTC)Javaweb Thank you for your constructive feedback you left on my page. --Javaweb (talk) 23:08, 29 December 2010 (UTC)Javaweb Enjoy the New Year!

Hey Malik, I request Page Protection.

Hey Malik, I believe page protection is needed on the photo for the article of "The Levant", random users keep reverting it back to an older image which doesn't fit the definition of the region.

Hey

I deleted the "Multiculturalsim" part of the African American article because it has nothing to do with the subject of the article. It's off the topic and it's trivializing the article. B-Machine (talk) 19:30, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lerner

I'm trying to add citations to a lot of the material that has been removed before I restore it. The 3rr page that 3rr is allowed if it is "Removal of libelous, biased, unsourced, or poorly sourced contentious material that violates the policy on biographies of living persons (BLP)." The new attacks on Lerner's ordination fall under that criterion, IMO--WickerGuy (talk) 21:08, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

1918 Pogrom article

Hello, Not sure if this is going to get to the correct person. I have read the article on the 1918 Lwow pogrom and have found some gross errors. I tried to explain my views and they were erased. I cited my source and these were erased.

Just because something is cited in a work does not make it correct or accurate.

My point, How could Haller's army be involved in the November 1918 pogrom in Lwow when they were still fighting in France? Haller himself is seen and documented at ceremonies for Marshall Petain receiving his baton in Metz the first week of December 1918. The Blue army did not arrive into Poland until April 1919, again well documented as their passage was restricted by German authorities. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hallersarmy (talk • contribs) 10:02, 4 January 2011 (UTC) are likely one of 40 sockpuppets of the banned user loosmark. The investigation is here: [1]. To repeat myself from there:[reply]

There is a pattern of loosmark's sockpuppets in that they are typically single-issue accounts devoted to removing historical information that involves something negative about Poland. In the case of User:Hallersarmy, it is the issue of Józef Haller and his army's actions. Two of loosmark's other socks, whch I have interacted with, each followed this pattern. User:23Michal was devoted to removing referenced info from the article about the Carmelite Church, Przemyśl (see his edit history here: [2]) and User:J.kunikowski was devoted to removing referenced info concerning the Massacre of Lviv professors (see his edit history here: [3]).
Also, one of loosmark's already-blocked sockpuppets, User:Agoodhistorian, edited on the same topic as User:Hallersarmy and did the same thing - removed referenced information. See diff here: [4]. Faustian (talk) 06:21, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment

Thanks for making me aware of that - I have now changed the style. Please let me know any other issues and I will sort. Oncenawhile (talk) 18:20, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Could use a look though on Poland Jewish history in Białystok

Could use an opinion if the history section of Białystok provides a decent summary of Poland Jewish history. There's some good stand-alone articles I tried to reference, but could use an extra set of eyeballs to look at. Thx in advance! Ajh1492 (talk) 23:24, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you delete the article 'Egyptian Hip Hop (Band)'?

Why did you delete it? They are a real band and if you typed it in on google you would realise that they're a band of minor, but notable significance. I'd love to hear a response.

194.202.143.5 (talk) 17:35, 5 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message. In order to qualify for an encyclopedia article, a band must be "notable". Please see WP:BAND, the relevant notability criteria. The article Egyptian Hip Hop (band) was deleted because it made no credible claim that the band was notable. If you can provide independent reliable sources that indicate the band satisfies Wikipedia's notability requirements, I would be happy to restore the article. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 04:36, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You haven't even looked to see if there is any press on them, have you? You're just sitting in your desk chair feeling like wikipedia king, master of global knowledge, but yet you are infact just a naive and ignorant little boy. Here's the proof so you solemnly desire:

Thank you for providing sources. I've restored the article. Please expand the article based on what the sources say about the band, or the article may be deleted again. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 16:33, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Greeting! First of all, I wish You great new year! :)
I have been occupied with polish Wiki past months writing and improving historical articles. I also educated myself a bit in writing articles which I hope will provide some good stuff from me in the future, although I really dont have so much time right now.
I just run into heavy subject regarding jewish and polish relation. Do do have relevant knowledge to discuss matters but I really need to discuss those with someone that knows the subject. I was thinking that You might know something about it or...You know someone with great knowledge in subject. This because Im into art on swedish Wiki right now to improve them.
The subject is so complicated that its difficult to do it alone, I spend some 20 years of reading about this and I feel that Im still not able to make any conclusions that Im satisfied with. So Im asking You for help in this matter if You can provide such. I would rather not discuss this here since its to long discussion with to many aspects, to many different views and to many theories. Could we discuss it by mail? Or chat on Facebook?
Thank You for taking time reading this! Best redargs and wishes, Camdan 23:10, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Israel and the apartheid analogy

Thank you foe the one revert rule notice, but the reverts were to different editors, not same editor. My understanding of the rule is that it derives from the three revert rule which makes clear that "...reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work". This includes one revert which was in obvious error as the editor did not examine the wikilinks he removed. I have just communicated this to him. Please have a good day.

1918 Lwow Pogrom

You have deleted my comments and edits about the Blue Army being responsible for the November 1918 pogrom in Lwow. You had stated I had not listed any references. Fair enough. I have 5 original citations from published works of men who lived through the time of the Polish Soviet War, (more if you need them). I am not arguing the fact that the Pogrom took place, nor that Jews were killed, nor that some Polish soldiers were invloved. My argument is the Blue Army is identified as the perpretators when in fact they were still in France until April 1919, months after the pogroms took place. I would like to post my paragraphs with citations but expect them to be quickly removed.

There is also a comment that the army was formed by General Haller in 1917. This is very far from the truth and easily could be disputed as well.

What do you think?

If the way I am doing the editing is not the best, I apologize but right up front, Wikipedia states anyone can edit as they see fit. So then I have to feel my opinions, with proper citations should merit their standing.
