do you have reverted my edit?
like the answer :) what i've wrote is write on the APA's page too! how can i directly attribute it? thanks Psico pp (talk) 01:43, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Yeah. If you put it verbatim in the article it is considered a copyright violation. See WP:COPYVIO. As I wrote in my edit summary: Must be directly attributed otherwise it is a copyvio, you must put it in quotes and credit the APA directly. I hope that helped. Best regards. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 01:46, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
if you say so, then ok
Hi Dr.K., Regarding your deletion of the edit, if you say so then fine. I do feel the way they identified themselves is major fundamental point to make, additional to what the kingdom's name was (some readers like it spelled out), but I take your point. In light of our lengthy discussions to arrive at a conclusion and the subsequent conduct of that editor, I was just about finished pinning something on the Administrator Noticeboards. Subsequent to your edit, I will pause. I am aware that editor is an administrator, but between accusing someone of being a sock, the manner in which they delete, and the wholesale references that are taken out in the process, I feel their conduct is inappropriate. Sincerely and best regards, Romaioi (talk) 02:20, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Hi Romaioi. Thank you for your nice message. I haven't checked in detail the main body of the article regarding coverage of the self-identification of the Byzantines as Romans, the Roman state traditions as well as the oriental influence on the culture but if you feel these points need clarification you can elaborate in the appropriate sections. On your other point, I wouldn't advise going to the admin noticeboards as a remedy for any case other than outright vandalism or other egregious behaviour. If your report is not a clear-cut case, soon enough, as the conversation grows larger with the pros and cons, the main point of the initial report eventually gets lost in the shuffle and the drama begins. The signal to noise ratio at that time approaches zero and your report will be closed as non-actionable. I wouldn't recommend filing a report at the present time. Take care and if you have any other comments or concerns you are always welcome here. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 03:19, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
but the other deletion?
Hi again, Dr.K., Thanks for not deleting the references in your last edit, but they pertain to all that was stated not just the portions that remain. It isn't obvious that Roman state traditions were followed based on the remaining text. Sure it can be inferred but the modern nomenclature can confuse the issue. Regarding the oriental influence, I thought we discussed this - it is mentioned in the cited materials. Sincerely, Romaioi (talk) 02:48, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Romaioi. Long time, no see. :) I think that the lead must be as concise and pithy as possible. So when we say: Byzantium is today distinguished from ancient Rome proper insofar as it was oriented... automatically the common area of the Venn diagram of the two states includes the Roman state traditions. Plus when we state It was the direct continuation of the Ancient Roman State the adjective "direct" implies continuity, i.e. no sudden or revolutionary upheavals of the state infrastructure. As far as the oriental influence I am not sure how strong or how encompassing it was and if it is significant enough to merit mention in the lead or in a section other than the lead, as I mentioned in my reply above. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 03:29, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- I added this as an additional clarification. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 04:06, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Dr.K., thanks very much for doing that. It reads very well. I understand/agree with everything you said in both replies (and I will spare myself on the admin issue - thanks for the advice). I'm just trying to help as quietly and effortlessly as possible and am failing on all accounts. ;-) I have to admit, conciseness is not my strong suit, even after all the practice of writing a bunch of scientific papers and now working as an engineer - I wish it was, it would save a lot of work. Thanks again for all the trouble you went to. I know I have already said it, but I'll do so again, Merry Christmas (great picture you have there), Romaioi (talk) 05:42, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you very much Romaioi for your kind comments and your well-taken edit suggestion. There was no trouble involved, especially when talking to a gentleman like you. It was my pleasure. I am also glad you like the decoration. I try my best to follow the spirit of the season. Merry Christmas and I would also add Happy New Year if I don't talk to you by then. :) Take care.

External links
(I'm not sure if this is correct place to post this) Dr.K I would appreciate you taking another look at the links that I added. These reviews complimented the pages I added. I understand there the links here are "no follow", I have writers who write articles relating to photography equipment and educational in value. If I placed in wrong spot... it wasn't intentional. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alex Schult (talk • contribs) 08:41, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Your account seems to be doing only one type of editing. Adding links from photographytalk.com to photography-related articles. There are various essays/guidelines dealing with this: The single-purpose account essay WP:SPA and the spam guideline WP:SPAM as well as the external links guideline WP:ELNO, all of which advise against the editing practices you are following. I would suggest you stop adding these links and instead go to the external links noticeboard WP:ELN to ask them for a second opinion if you don't believe me. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 08:51, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
If my knowledge is based off articles from Photographytalk... and I'm adding content to an article on wikipedia... if I'm not mistaken it clearly says I'm suppose to reference the work. So how is this considered spam? I'm adding value to your board, and I'm following your instructions posted indicating to give reference to work?
Am I missing something? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alex Schult (talk • contribs) 04:31, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
- Yes. You have a conflict of interest in that you cannot add your website link to the articles in addition to the links being spammy etc. Please see WP:COI. But for more information please go to WP:ELN and submit these questions to the experts there. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 04:36, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
Revert?
What for was the revert when in fact the edit is more detailed than the previous one? ГоранМирчевски (talk) 05:13, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
- I personally like the new map more because of ancient Macedonia on it, we should keep it. Macedonian (talk) 06:34, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
- There are colour patches which look splattered randomly inside other colour areas. Overall it doesn't look very professional. As far as including the ancient kingdom, I think the old one did too. But, as I am obviously in the minority and consensus must rule, you can reinstate it. I would advise however someone to work on the colours, change them to more lively ones as in the other map, as well as fix the colour patches as described above. Not to mention the label "Greece" in the north somehow looks bad. It could be the size, the font and the orientation of the letters, or maybe just the greyish colours of the map. Καλά Χριστούγεννα. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 15:41, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
- Macedonia first of all is an ancient kingdom and then everything else. To what you refer as macedonia boundaries in this page, you refer only the last 100 years. I guess we miss some thousands years of definition. This page lack of information, facts, and education. What you call boundaries of Macedonia todays, you refering to the Turkish Vilayet of Thessaloniki, Monastir and Kosovo. However due the Ottoman Empire period, nowhere is reffering to the area as macedonia. However Turks make their vilayets not according to geographic term or ethnic groups areas, but they make vilayets according to the mix of population, because this cause less revolts and plus the local nations fight each other. Also in all Ottoman censuses, nowhere is mentioned any "macedonian" nation. So where was located Macedonia the previous centuries? Macedonia due the Byzantine period referred to the Themas of Thessaloniki, Strymon and Macedonia (which located in todays East Macedonia and Thrace. Evidence of that we can find into the Bulgarian Nationalism in the first and second wars and in the some previous years. VMRO, an originally Bulgarian organization which claims Macedonia to unite it with rest Bulgaria, was set mainly by Bulgarians, which Greeks and Albanians join in common goals of sending Turks away. Bulgarians refer to Macedonia as it was the Themas of Thessaloniki, Strymon and Macedonia, plus the Shopluk area. In Byzantine period Macedonia Thema was in the area of Adrianople, which VMRO claims also as Macedonia (See Bulgarian Nationalism and maps related to VMRO). VMRO exist as organization till today with claims over Vardar region due the high Bulgarian population in Shopluk area. Also there is another new VMRO of Skopje origin created the last decade and is the current political party and government in Skopje (FYROM). For the record, Bulgarians and Slavs came in the region of Balkans in the 6th century AD according of what they say and their history. Macedonia thema was relocated in late Byzantine period for strategic reasons and mainly due of the came of Bulgarians and Slavs in the area of Balkans after the 6th century and the wars between Byzantines and Bulgarians. In Roman period Macedonia was a cross road and located mainly from Durres in Albania all across the "Egnatia Odos". Is impotant to mention that Skopje city is all that period, never was part of Macedonia. However the City of Skopje original name was Scupi (Roman), Shkupi(Illyrian) and proof of that is the even latest period of Ottoman Empire which the City of Skopje known as Uskup, the name Skopje is recently invented and name it. Before even the Roman period, was the Hellenistic Era, even in that time Skopje city was not into the Macedonia's borders. There are questions such, why Alexander the Great spread Hellenism and not Macedonian stuffs if he spoke another language? Why he order Athenean Greek ships to explore red sea and find a route to India? What for was the Oath of Alexander in Opis? Why left no evidence of "Macedonism" instead all left are Greek if Macedonia and Greece was two different things? Probably because Macedonia is nothing more than Greece. What about the Kingdoms after Alexander's the Great era? Why Alexander had Greek teacher and not macedonian if it's different language? How they communicate? And for those who believe that Philippos does not like rest Greeks, why he teach Greek to his son and why he had Greek name as he and his son? Let's go to some definition. In ancient Greece there was no single thing called Greece, but there was region cities/states which fought each other and make alliances for glory and power. Notable is the Peloponnesian war which keeps for 50 years between Sparta (Lakaidemonians) and Athena. Each side had other Greek region cities/states as their alliances. For example Macedonia was with Sparta and Thebes with Athena etc. However when the so called Barbarians came in the area, Greeks stop fight each other, they form all together an army and send away the Barbarians, after that they continue their internal wars. Alexander the Great wanted to lead a campaign to Asia against Persians, however the rest states doubt if he can lead that due his very young age. For this reason he had to proof his self against the opposite alliance and did it. Note that areas such Epirus or Sparta was not set foot because they came from same alliance. After he prove his self to the opposite alliance he recruit army, which not include Spartans as respect of their legend in their epis battles of Thermopulai against Persians. The main reason of Alexander the Great of his campaign to Asia, was to take revenge for all Greeks about the wars of the previous centuries and of course as dreamed a free world. Greeks are all those which came from same nation and share same language, gods, tradition and civilization. A state or kingdom does not make the nation. Nation is people of same origin, and doesn't matter if they have one or more states. Example is the Albanians, are spread in Albania, Kosovo and FYROM, they have two states, they mainly are spread to another one, but they are from one nation. About the Vergina Sun, the sun of Vergina has been found to various Greek locations and is a symbol that represents the Olympian Gods mainly, the four elements etc. Actually is a Greek symbol and have found centuries prior Alexander's era in various locations within the Ancient Greece regions cities/states. About the language, Makedonia, Alexandros and Filippos has a meaning in Greek language. What it means in Skopski language? In Skopski language all those words has no meaning and is some plain words. And if all is different with Macedonia and Greece, how can those words has meaning in Greek language but not in Skopski language? What about the Skopski names and traditions, language? How can be related with Macedonia? And if you tell me that all change from time to time. Still how can be everything completly change? And if we speak about the Slav-Macedonian. Slavs came after 6th AD in the region of Balkans, they came 1000 years after Alexander's the Great death. Bible reffers also to the Macedonia. There are more problem to consider about the new State of Macedonija, the 35% of the total population are Ethnic Albanians which Skopski republic want to name them "macedonians" by force. Is important to know that all those Albanians who makes the 35% of the total population of FYROM, they didn't migrate there recently, but this place was their natural home before even the slavs came to the region. We mention about the city of Skopje for it's original name etc. earlier. Also there are more minorities groups in FYROM who are not refer to their selfs as "macedonians" Another issue is the Shopluk area and the Bulgarian population. More notes, into the FYROM parliament there are two official languages, Albanian and Skopski, anyone can speak whatever want, also Bulgaria issue passports to Skopski people because it decides that Skopski people are Bulgarians, passport issued to them just by fill up one form in the Bulgarian embassy. Is very known that FYROM people can understand better the Bulgarian subtitles than the Serbian one. Other remarks, the VMRO never claimed the Greek name of Macedonia or Alexander the Great, but they claim territory as due the centuries they lived and spread to that territories as outcome of the wars between Greeks and Bulgarians and they call the region Macedonia, as they learned from Greeks when they appear in Balkans in the 6th century. Today Bulgarians has no intentions to the historic Macedonia, but they have to Vardarska region (FYROM) which Shopluk located and many Bulgarians live. After VMRO failed to accomplish it claims, Yugoslavia turn that propaganda into it's own favour by renain the regions to sosialistic internal republics with extension views against Bulgarians, Greeks and Albanians. This change happened due the communist changes, as same happened to Communist Russia at that time. After the second world war, a civil war comes in Greece between the communists and democratics. Communist take their supplies from Yugoslavia which aims to expend to Macedonia by using the communism as an excuse. Yugoslavians of the Vardarska commited genocide against Greeks and they mess into internal matters. Prior that it had followed the plan of Yugoslavias extension to Bulgaria, Greece and Albania, and for this reason happened the renames of the regions to socialistic republics, to fullfill that plans and to create claims from nowhere. However and this propaganda failed. After the break up of the Yugoslavia, the Republic of Macedonija (FYROM) born. The only way to survive while is landlocked, is to take from others and to invent history if wants to survive. The first part, of adopt Bulgarian language and tradition it was already there as also the name, as given to the communist era. Now that communism in Yugoslavia collapse and the break, the area was landlocked and with no major population. However the first President of Republic of Macedonija (FYROM), make it clear that they are Slavs and they have no connection with Alexander the Great and his Macedonia (check videos). We can continue very much more further. Mention also that in the Ottoman Empire, even in 18th century was newpapers in Greek language, with names "Pharos" and "Makedonia" ... based in Thessaloniki.
- COMPOSE OF A NEUTRAL MAP
- Now let's back to wiki, a neutral map must not lay only to one side, but to show all sides. A neutral map must write in english or local language the name of the area according to what each state call the area. Then the map must write the names of the countries as it's nation wall it self and as others call the other nations. This will represent all sides and names in one and is very enough fair. Also the boundaries of Macedonia must be dotted, and within the dots and rest area to mention the name of the country, inside dots must be written all countries related to Macedonia region. Colors must be the main national colors, blue, red and green. Map must present also the ancient Macedonian kingdom and it's capital cities. Also additional can be a light line of the expand of Macedonia during Alexander's the Great time but remember that was a time of few years only according to the whole Macedonia's Kingdom period. This will be a very neutral map which will respect everyone.
- NOTE: FYROM 40% of population are ethnics of other nationalities and they don't consider their selfs as "Skopski-Macedonijans" or "Slav-Macedonians" anything similar. All those populations aren't came there by migration, but where they live is their natural home. Meed to consider the opinion of the 35% of Ethnic Albanians and rest minorities groups. Then we can talk about good faith and neutral. --ГоранМирчевски (talk) 23:51, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

Well, since we are on the subject, it is my turn to tell you that I was inspired by your comment on Lolo's talkpage: ...it looks as though Angel's BeLIEve wasn't very successful or perhaps that good when it first opened, but that he has successfully taken into account criticism to make it more of a show featuring him and his magic, and that this is being well-received. If this is the case, our article should reflect that.. It was so fair and well-taken that I felt I had to do something about it. So, it is my turn to thank you for inspiring me to do something nice. :) Take care. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 03:21, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
Revert edit
Hey Dr.K,
Noticed you reverted my edit in the ]]Competition between Airbus and Boeing]] section. I Added Airbus as "See also" read material. And deleted the Airbus Executive and Private Aviation section. Isnt it so that the main Airbus article is better fitted in this article? Is it maby an idea to put both the articles in the "See also" chapter? Njirk (talk) 12:35, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Njrk. Per WP:SEEALSO once a wikilink appears in the main text of the article it should not be included in the "=See also=" section again. These wikilinks are included first in the lead of the article therefore they should not be added again in the "=See also=" section. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 16:56, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
I hate to bother you...

Salmonson references
You are aware that all mention of the fact that Jesssica Amanda Salmonson is a transsexual has been edited out of the article, right? The link I gave was to a site that mentioned this fact, which was never particularly a secret in the science fiction community (well, not a secret until recently, I guess.)
I would have thought a reference to this would have some importance. Of course, anybody who was serious in researching JAS would refer to reference materials available in print, but it did seem that at least a link to this information would be useful if anybody wants an understanding of the author. 108.81.78.48 (talk) 15:08, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- No I was not aware of this controversy at all. I just saw that this is a blogspot which locally is not considered a reliable source by definition and also noticed the links to Amazon.com for buying books, which makes it spammy, and I decided to keep it out of the article. The fact that the site is blacklisted by Xlinksbot did not help either. Since you just mentioned the underlying controversy, I want to add that this article is covered under WP:BLP, the policy of biographies of living people, making the use of reliable sources mandatory, especially for adding controversial information. If you think this fact is worthy of inclusion perhaps you can find a few reliable sources to support its inclusion in the article. I hope this helps. Best regards. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 19:00, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Most websites about authors include links to the author's books on Amazon. That's not being "spammy," that's just what literary websites do.
- On the other hand, if Sa1monson wants to erase all mention of her (his) previous identity from Wikipedia, I suppose that's her perogative. She's been "Jessica" for long enough that I suppose shw thinks it's time her past is forgotten. 76.241.120.215 (talk) 04:23, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

Michael Dominic revert
The information I added from his website I wrote from an interview with him and research. Can you explain how I can add these changes and not have them reverted?
- I am not sure about the best way of doing this but you may want to ask at user talk:Moonriddengirl. She is an admin and a copyright expert. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 04:33, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
Ok. I conversed with moonriddengirl and she said the easiest thing to do is for Dominic to put "The text of this page is available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts)". He has now done this.
She also wrote "Either way, we'd need to provide proper attribution to his site, which we do with a "template" at the bottom of the page: Template:Dual, for instance. If he decides to go this route, Dr. K or I should be able to help you".
Please instruct.
Great thanks. How do I help get rid of the "This article has multiple issues"?
- Unfortunately all three issues appear to be valid. The sources are few, the article is covered by information provided by the subject of the article and notability is a bit iffy. If you can find more sources to add like mainstream newspapers, books, magazines etc. it would help two out of the three issues. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 21:07, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

these guys copy contents from wiki and paste it on their website and claim that it belongs to them... they have no sense and shame... how to keep them away from here, thats the reason I made such harsh statements.

Rustaveli
Hey there stranger. Didn't realize this was one of yours until after I AfDed. Sorry You know I love museums, but I'm not even sure this one exists. QUick question on this comment. Is that actually the name of the the museum? If so, it should be in the article so those of us who don't know Georgian can try to find results. Although, now I see you've removed your comment so maybe I'm confused ETA: whoops you weren't creator. Sorry for confusion. Misread AfD StarM 22:29, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
- Hi StarM. No problem. I was ready to tell you it was not my article but we had an edit-conflict after you corrected your statement. At the AfD, I simply wanted to point out that we may have to search using the Georgian language. But my translation was wrong since it was about the theatre, not the museum. That's when I self-reverted, when I realised that I had the wrong search terms. Maybe it is still worth a try to search for the name in the Georgian language further, but since I don't have any idea how to write it I don't think I will try again. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 22:43, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah I got you & Dr. Bloefeld mixed up in the history. Bad reading. Gotcha on the translation. I'd love to find Georgian language sources but I see now that it may be just the wrong name of the bldg., which certainly makes sense for accounting for no results other than wiki mirrors. One thing I've found in both my travels as well as my editing is that if something exists, there's always something written about it in English even if it's not a RS. When there's nothing, I begin to question whether it's a misnomer or doesn't exist. Have a good day StarM 23:02, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
- I understand the confusion. How many doctors can edit an article at the same time? :) As far as your other points, I agree. Notability is usually very problematic when Google shows no hits in English. It was nice meeting you. Take care. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 23:24, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Recent editing dispute at Germans
Hello DrK, in response to your note on my talk page I've posted my response and explanation at the talk of the page in question. As I've indicated there, I'm not going to involved further with editing this entry until some additional discussion of the points I've raised. Thanks. Malljaja (talk) 21:18, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- Hi Malljaja. Thank you for your notification. I saw your comments on the article talk. I wanted to mention there that I did not want you to feel obliged to respond to my comment on your talk. I simply wanted to offer my opinion on the TW edit-summary. Other than that I did not want to elicit a follow-up from you. Regarding the sockpuppetry angle, I am not familiar with the case you refer to but I think that an SPI might clear the air. My personal opinion of the other editor is that he is willing to listen, discuss and compromise. If he is a sock then too bad; but if he isn't, he is not such a bad guy. So it is up to you how you want to pursue this matter. I have no opinion on the historical details because I am not an expert on German history. My only motivation in the first place was to correct some bad grammar. After that I have no further opinion on the intricate details of German history. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 21:35, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Jessica Lange
Someone we know is at it again at Jessica Lange, which is rapidly becoming just a list of awards and nominations. Any ideas on how to proceed, other than just a rollback (which, I'm sure will not be well received...) Blake Burba (talk) 04:25, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
- I think we should create a new article featuring a list of these awards and split it from the main article per WP:SUMMARYSTYLE. Since the IP is a proven sock we also have considerable leeway in identifying problematic editing trends which could be mitigated by reverting and reporting. I will also keep an eye on the article and will support any corrections you may wish to make. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 04:47, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
- There is already such an article (also copiously edited by said user.) I think I may begin to cut back on the awards listed in the main article. Blake Burba (talk) 04:53, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
- Excellent idea. I will help out any way I can. You can start at any time. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 05:26, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
- Shall we shift further discussion to the article's talk page? I'm sure others will want to weigh in.... -Blake Burba (talk) 05:50, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
- Why didn't I think of that? Considering the notice at the top of my talkpage. :) Great idea. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 05:57, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
