Hiʻiaka

I thought that since the mythologic individual's name was Hiʻiaka, the moon should also be that, and not Hi'iaka. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Britannic124 (talk • contribs) 02:23, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're probably right... My display settings did not show the difference between the two titles, and it looked like a self-referential redirect. Tgeairn (talk) 02:26, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There may be a case for /moving/ the article, but pasting the whole thing is wrong, and I've undone that. Maybe start a discussion on Talk:Hi'iaka (moon) (where it has been previously discussed;). Tycho Magnetic Anomaly-1 (talk) 20:47, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bosnian pyramids -- WP:3RR

I add some pictures to this Article, No harm. but User:Ronz just kept banning my adding, EXACT like He is the only one who eligible for editing this Article, I don't know How to do.Znorz (talk) 02:17, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Ronz provided explanation for his reverts in the edit summaries. Please review his edit summaries on the history tab of the page. It appears to me that the primary concern is that the references provided are not WP:Reliable sources, so I suggest you review that policy. Regarding [[WP:3RR], you have reposted the same information to the article repeatedly. That constitutes an edit war, even if you are sure you are correct. Read WP:3RR for next steps for you to take. I hope this helps. Tgeairn (talk) 22:31, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

California Gubernatorial Election, 1974

Not verifiable? The fact that 62.2% of the voters cast ballots for someone other than Jerry Brown is evident by a mere inspection of the result table that is included in the article and a simple computation. To say that 37.8% of voters being able to decide an election is "skewed" is a mild criticism. I included a link to runoff election, which is a concept designed to ensure that candidates are nominated with the consent of a majority of those voting.97.124.3.72 (talk) 17:03, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Your phrase "Such skewing of the popular will is common in states which do not require a runoff election when a candidate fails to obtain a majority of the votes cast", along with the (admittedly very simple) calculation you performed constitutes Original Research. If you have a reference for 'skewing of popular will', go ahead and re-add the statement (including the reference). Thanks! Tgeairn (talk) 17:12, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! For the record, Gary Coleman is not a living person. But your revert was obviously more than justified. Cheers, DoctorJoeE (talk) 00:05, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bark

Hi, I can't imagine how this happened, but your fix to Bark restored the vandalism rather than removing it! Nadiatalent (talk) 14:50, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nice catch... It looks like another editor and I both must have hit revert at the same time (and I lost). It happens sometimes, I guess. I am glad you caught it and fixed it! Thanks. Tgeairn (talk) 18:24, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You wouldn't believe how long I stared at that before realizing that your change had misfired! Nadiatalent (talk) 21:28, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, just a heads up that I reverted your edits here and here. Please be careful not to revert acceptable edits and not to warn users a second time for the same edit. Cheers, CharlieEchoTango (talk) 00:47, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry for deleting your page, but when i was just a wee lad i went to this school and I know what i am talking about.

Ivanka Trump

Greetings-

I work for the Trump Organization and have been asked by Ivanka Trump to update her Wiki page so we hope that you would be kind enough to allow the updates to stand?

Thank you,

Michael Martin The Trump Organization mmartin@trumporg.com — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmartinnyc (talk • contribs) 16:57, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mr Martin. Your contributions to Ivanka Trump are of course welcome. I reverted your changes which removed referenced material, but you should feel free to add the material you have as long as it is well cited, verifiable, and written from a neutral point of view. Please review those links, as well as the information on conflict of interest that I placed on your talk page. If you have any questions regarding specific content to add or remove, feel free to discuss it on the article discussion page and I or another editor will work with you. --Tgeairn (talk) 17:08, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the response, I'm just getting my feet wet on Wiki so I appreciate the feedback. Ivanka is interested in keeping her page up-to-date and accurate so I'll do the best I can under the guidelines.

Oh no!

Sorry for warning you by mistake! And thanks for reverting my user page! :) --Caltas ^(talk) 10:50, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No problem... We're both pretty quick with the trigger finger... I thought maybe I had reverted something else on your user page. :) --Tgeairn (talk) 10:52, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, you didn't do anything that would have deserved a level 4 warning! ;) The problem was that I noticed a second too late, that you had beaten me to reverting Simon Katich, so I warned you instead of the vandalising IP. . . Keep up the good work! :) --Caltas ^(talk) 11:04, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Admin Problem

Have you see any Admins on Wikipedia who are rude and stirring up trouble? I just be encountered an VERY RUDE admin who is threatening me that he is goin' to block my account 'cause they say I have bad English and may not be a US citizen yet. They rudly say that non US Citizens don't deserve to have a Wiki acount. I need help because they are bothering me! I can't believe how discriminating it can be on wikipedia!!!!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nycalex2012 (talk • contribs) 04:47, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Although it is unlikely that a rude or abusive user was really an admin, they are people too and could make mistakes. If you are unable to resolve the issue with the editor on their talk page, you can take a look at Wikiquette assistance and certainly get any issues handled there. Thanks for asking! --Tgeairn (talk) 04:52, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just as a note, no such threats or claims have been made against Nycalex2012, though I think this vandalism that Nycalex2012 left on my userpage tells you everything you need to know about his/her intentions on Wikipedia. Sparthorse (talk) 04:56, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nice - I believe the editor misinterpreted the templates that are landing on his talk page as a result of his -ahem- 'editing style'. I am, of course, always interested in enthusiasim though! :) --Tgeairn (talk) 05:00, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Murata Jukō and Murata Shukō

There are two separate pages, Murata Jukō and Murata Shukō. They should be merged because they are the same person, only different pronunciations of his name! How can this be done? --Britannic124 (talk) 17:38, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To get started with the process of merging two or more articles, first see WP:Merge and Help:Merging. Those two articles give the details of how to propose and discuss a merge.

In short, you will want to a) first determine which article to keep, b) place proposed merge templates on the pages (pointing both to a discussion section in the target article's talk page), c) discuss the merger and get consensus (this should be pretty easy given the low number of editors on the articles), and d) once a concensus has been reached - perform the merge. Each of these steps are described in detail i nthe WP:Merge and Help:Merging articles.

Having said all of that, since you are the only editor of Murata Shukō, if your intention is for the merged article to be Murata Jukō then you can proceed boldly with the merge.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask any questions if you run into trouble, and be sure to read the articles on merging carefully before starting. Happy editing! --Tgeairn (talk) 19:58, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to sound lazy, but it appears very complicated. Could you or someone else willing to do it do it? I'm sorry… --Britannic124 (talk) 19:58, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

Your recent editing history at The Weeknd shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.

If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly. Jim1138 (talk) 07:38, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Jim, please review the changes I am reverting. The link the editor is adding is a site to download copyrighted material, and requires reversion. I am in contact with WikiMedia Oversight to get the history blanked. Thanks! --Tgeairn (talk) 07:41, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why not block him at WP:AIV? Sorry for using the template! Cheers! Jim1138 (talk) 07:47, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Repetitive Stress Injury

Hi Tgeairn,

I have significant experience as a sufferer of RSI for more that 6 years.

Extended content

Here is my story.

Homeopathy literally saved me from the hell I was going through. It is up to you to decide, whether to look for "Scientific" evidence of Homeopathy until you include or help thousands out there that are suffering with it.

Here is my story....

I had Repetitive Stress Injury, where my arms were sore every day by end of day. Pain used to run from forearms to elbows. My shoulders used to have sharp shooting pains due to usage of Mouse.Doctors diagnosed it as Tendinitis.I used to apply Ice packs before going to bed. Gone through several Physio therapy sessions to “strengthen” muscles.

Gone to some of the best sports medicine doctors out there, including to the one who used to treat players of “Dallas Cowboys”, the football team of Dallas.

Six years passed by, with this pain with out any result. Yes that is 6 years of pain ..with no hope in sight.

Finally I tried Homeopathy ….The pain went away like a magic…. The medicine is called “Bellis Perennis”, it is made from a common plant called “English Daisy” a wild plant that is very commonly seen.

I have taken it three times in one day. Yes one day, for three times. ( 1m potency, 3 times in one day )

That’s it….

Now please guide me so that we can help save other RSI sufferers... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Srinikoganti (talk • contribs) 03:05, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! As someone who also suffers from RSI (possibly due to way too many hours on Wikipedia!), I am also always interested in alternative ways to ease suffering. However, your edits did not provide a reliable source to back your claims. Your personal story is an interesting one, and I am glad that you are finding relief. Unfortunately, personal anecdotes are at best original research and can't be used as a source in an article. Please go ahead and locate reliable source(s) and add those to the RSI article. If you need help figuring out what kind of sources to use, or how to cite those sources, check out the links in this response. If you still need assistance, feel free to ask me here! Thanks, and happy editing. --Tgeairn (talk) 03:15, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

References for Homeopathy remedy medicine "Bellis Perennis"

Hi Tgeairn,

Here are some links to the Homepathy medicine "Bellis Perennis" that I was mentioning about.

http://www.homeopathyplanet.com/AudeSapere/Study%20Room/MMCharts/Bellis%20perennis.pdf http://www.homeoint.org/books/boericmm/b/bell-p.htm http://www.vithoulkas.com/en/books-study/online-materia-medica/2279.html http://hpathy.com/ebooks/boerickes-materia-medica/bellis-perennis/ http://abchomeopathy.com/r.php/Bell-p http://www.homeopathyandmore.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=355

I urge you to use it for yourself to get convinced.

We are so used to believing what allopathy doctors say and we think that is the whole truth.

As you know, our science is evolving and can't answer lot of questions.

And more over, drug companies want Homeopathy and other alternative medicine to die so that they can more profits. So it is very common to see the medical journals and research community bad mouth Homeopathy.

Please let me know if you need any further info.

I have no ulterior motive other than helping RSI sufferers.

Reliable Sources

One more question, there's been arguments surrounding http://www.buzzjack.com/, is that site reliable for singles' sales figures — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maximuman (talk • contribs) 19:51, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:USERG, I would consider the Buzz Jack site a Self-Published site (therefore not a WP:Reliable source) as it contains "...content [that] is largely user-generated." The exception would be if the referenced material is clearly posted by a credentialed member of the site's editorial staff (in this context, that means a credentialed member of the press). A quick review of the site didn't clearly indicate if the moderators are credentialed (and I would think it is unlikely). So... if there is any controversy, I don't think Buzz Jack stands up as a reliable source. --Tgeairn (talk) 20:05, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks for that, I think the main editor is a person called vidcapper, I'm currently messaging him on where he retrieves the information from, even though from my point of view buzzjack's sales are accurate, you're right, we cannot tell — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maximuman (talk • contribs) 20:13, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Fan Death"-Super Smash Brothers

"Fan Death" is the term from the popular Nintendo 64 game "Super Smash Brothers" wherein a person's character is disposed via "The Fan". This is generally considered the most embarrassing way to die in the game. The humiliation is two sided. First, death via a fan is almost impossible because the fan does such little damage to a character. Secondly, it's a fan. Compared to the other weapons in the game i.e. Hammer, Bat, Green Shell etc, this is by far the weakest and least fought over weapon. All of this adds to the overall charm and distinction of actually meeting defeat at the hands of someone wielding a fan. All you can do is lower your head and walk away in shame. And if your friends make fun of you mercilessly, pull out the game cartridge while they are playing, and try to break it against the dumpster behind your house. This insures no more humiliation of death via The Fan. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.254.45.34 (talk) 21:17, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have no opinion or argument with your depiction of "Fan Death" in the game. However, you will need to provide a reliable source for the information if you want to include it in the article. Possibly a better location would be in the article about the game itself? Thanks! --Tgeairn (talk) 21:25, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If I provide a link, can you add it to the page? I'm having a hard time referencing it properly? The second portion is more just for fun but the first portion is absolutely true and quite a cult phenomenon in gamer circles http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/wiki/Fan — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.254.45.34 (talk) 22:06, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The code you will want to include after your text is:

<ref>{{Citation | url = http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/wiki/Fan | accessdate = 2012-01-05 }}</ref>

Just put the above after your addition to the article and a reference will be added to the list at the bottom.

HOWEVER! The article you have been adding the text to is about the Korean Myth Fan Death. I suggest you look for another article more appropriate to the addition (maybe Super Smash Bros., but I'm not a gamer so I don't know). --Tgeairn (talk) 22:18, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
