User talk:0x0077BE

Hi

I agree with your comment on Talk:Scientific consensus. In my experience this group of articles is "owned" and strongly defended, so it might be hard to change the article. Northwestgnome (talk) 15:11, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I don't want to get into an edit war or anything, but I don't think my statements were all that controversial. I get the feeling that the consequences section was something like padding in what overall looks like a sub-par article.User:0x0077BE (talk) 23:15, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Careless (Devon) Whisper"?

Even though the list has been "disappeared" (for now, anyway) I must admit that the article looks a lot "tidier" as a result. But I'm missing George already! Maybe he deserved his own separate mention after all, as a (more) notable case, haha? Regards, Martinevans123 (talk) 16:03, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The old list can be found in the history of course. I wasn't convinced of that diagnosis from the cite for George Michael anyway, but I think it's more appropriate to put that on George Michael's page rather than on the FAS page. 0x0077BE (talk) 16:12, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Scientific consensus

I am here to inform you that, on scientific consensus, the citation on the line "Scientific consensus is not by itself a scientific argument, and it is not part of the scientific method." is a dynamic webpage, guess what, it changed, and that line was removed a month ago by reason "this is not in source." Maybe you can help find some RS (or inform the others) to update the source? Thanks. --14.198.220.253 (talk) 06:03, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I've never given a Barnstar before, but I really appreciate the work you've been doing in so many Freedom of Speech articles, thought it was the least I could do. 0x0077BE (talk) 22:33, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you make a page by mistake

Do this (remove the spaces):

{ { db - g7 } }

Good luck Wgolf (talk) 01:02, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They Live

If you haven't seen it, I recommend it. Not in a spam way. Not really, anyway. I think you may find "we" totally agree. Maybe even the other two. Kumbaya.

But if you have, and just aren't thankful for being reminded of it, that's also cool. It wasn't perfect. InedibleHulk (talk) 22:45, February 17, 2014 (UTC)

Yeah you're right

You're right to mark it for deletion. It's too soon. But carried away me thinks. Thanks for picking up on it I guess.WilmaT-H09 (talk) 00:56, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I looked around to see, most of the other Pinoy Big Brother stuff has extensive articles, so I'm sure that once Season 5 actually starts you'll have a chance to turn out a nice page on it! 0x0077BE [^talk/_contrib] 04:34, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sigma Beta Phi

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it is page listing information on a sorority recognized by the University of Ottawa and University of Ottawa Greek Council. It is a sorority listed in the fraternities and sororities of Canada page here on Wikipedia as well as the page university of Ottawa's Wikipedia page. I made this page because it is mentioned on two legitimate pages on Wikipedia and needs further information to let people know what Greek life is in Canada. It is the first predominantly black bilingual sorority in Canada. This page is essential for those seeking information on the University of Ottawa's student life as well as sororities in Canada. If it was deleted this means you must delete all the pages concerning greek lettered organizations here on Wikipedia Where it is mentioned on Wikipedia:

It's not actually my decision whether it gets speedy deleted, but it didn't seem like the case was made that it was especially notable, as it is a single branch of a fraternity organization. It's a borderline case for speedy, but I think a clear case for deletion. I actually did look to see what the rules are for notability in fraternity organizations. If you'll notice, on Fraternities and sororities in Canada, the most recently founded article with a page is Sigma Lambda Gamma, founded in 2004, and that is an international organization with dozens of chapters. One of the redlink organizations is Omega Theta Alpha, which was speedy deleted twice, and roundly failed an AfD because it was a local organization in a school with no special claim to notability. If you'd like there to be an article about Sigma Beta Phi, the best thing to do is to find reliable coverage from trusted sources establishing notability under the general notability guidelines. You can also consult this working draft of notability guidelines for fraternities and sororities. If the organization that you are trying to add now doesn't meet these guidelines, but you are still interested in editing articles on greek life, try joining WikiProject Fraternities and Sororities and they can likely assist you in finding appropriate topics that would interest you. Best of luck with your future editing! 0x0077BE [^talk/_contrib] 04:48, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Telegraph Berkeley

Thank you very much for reviewing! I would like to know what header you might recommend? Of course I think the area is quite distinctive and many of the students who live in the vicinity never venture much further, so seemed useful to distinguish it and begin to pull together documentation of its history. There are individual wiki articles on components, such as Shambhala Publications and Cody's Books, but only pulling them together conveys an understanding of the area. I've been a registered user for a while but not sophisticated user. I read article wiki which said registered users can post. Happy to use process that might add value.Miss Wasky (talk) 20:14, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, in this case I think that the common title for that general area is Southside, as far as I can tell. The content in the articles you've worked on is good, but because you're just getting started, you really may want to go through the Articles for Creation process to iron out the details. You can get feedback there from experienced users on things like this. In this case, I recommended that the article be deleted here, mainly because I don't think Telegraph is distinct from either Telegraph Avenue or Southside. However, both of those articles need expansion, so you may want to consider moving the content you've created into those articles.

Additionally, this is something I didn't know about until recently, but I love ProveIt - you can enable it in your preferences and it adds a very easy-to-use box for adding perfectly formatted references, which I think goes a long way in making an article look high-quality. Since you're very good with the references, you may want to use it to make things easier. 0x0077BE [^talk/_contrib] 20:28, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm - I suppose I might also mention that if you haven't lived in the area for a while, it might be helpful to understand that these days Telegraph Avenue is gaining a significant....weightiness...to the south, in Oakland. Telegraph Avenue is now just as likely to refer to the Temescal district, or the home of the Oakland Art Murmur and First Fridays street festival, as well as other exciting things happening in Oakland. I think the new article disambiguates in an important way. (I hope this is where I'm supposed to be having this conversation...?) thank you - Miss Wasky (talk) 20:23, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I moved from Berkeley less than a year ago, but my personal perceptions aren't really important anyway, that's just what made me suspicious that it was the wrong name. What's more important is finding reliable, secondary sources for notability. I didn't find anything that referred to the Telegraph Ave area as anything but "Telegraph Avenue" or "Southside", both of which already have articles. 0x0077BE [^talk/_contrib] 20:28, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay that's very helpful. I'll look at expanding a subsection on Telegraph Avenue and will check out ProveIt - much appreciated!Miss Wasky (talk) 20:37, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Started updating the citations using proveit. fantastic tool, thanks.

Making sure new editors don't lose your messages

Hello. A link trail starting at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk has led me here. I noticed that you left a message on Miss Wasky's talk page about the location of responses.

If you are concerned about other editors missing your messages, you have at least two options to notify them:

{{ping}} them. Use this template or otherwise link to someone's user page and a notification will be sent.
{{talkback}} to them, which is the old way of doing it. Leave this on a user talk page and point to a page where discussion is taking place. (Don't substitute! This allows new editors to remove these notifications more easily.)
- There are other specific "talkback" templates, such as {{Teahouse talkback}}, {{helpdeskreply}}, and {{subst:AFCHD/u}}. (The last one should be substituted, unlike the rest.)

Make sure you fill in the right parameters for these templates! Anon126 (talk - contribs) 08:18, 23 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
