No problem! Howicus (Did I mess up?) 20:27, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Howicus,

I spoke to you about the Sagat (rapper) and Jump Chico Slamm Pages.

I wondered how I should go about getting you the information that I compiled to correct the wiki page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kerumino (talkcontribs) 01:57, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kerumino. Well, if the information is website links, post it here or at Talk:Sagat (rapper). If it's not available online, then my ability to help you may be limited, since I can't verify the info myself. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 02:22, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Howicus I do have some comments with supporting links that may be of help.

funk Dat was a crossover song with a total reach to 46 countries. (not a minor hit)

so even though it wasn't a "major hit" I believe the description "minor hit"

is unnecessary

Inspite of the statement "a minor hit" Sagat Funk Dat and Fuk Dat

Appear in over 25 Remixes and 60 compilations.

from 1993-2012 As of Early January 2014 This is a very popular underground song in EDM.

I don't know of any songs that can be called a "minor hit" that have so much impact 20 years later.

So basically this should be enough information to put things in perspective differentiating between Jump Chico Slamm as a producer established years before Sagat --Sagat is not a rapper who produces as Jump Chico Slamm --Jump Chico Slamm is a "Music Producer / Record Producer" who uses "Sagat" amongst other aliases

 as an M.C. or as some say (Rapper)

supporting Sagat has changed the Artist name to Sagatmanchu http://www.reverbnation.com/artist_877246/bio https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sagatmanchu/128895690459600?sk=info http://www.youtube.com/user/SAGATMANCHU http://deephousepage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=215881 http://www.reverbnation.com/sagatmanchu

I hope this is the way to get this started. I use discogs for the actual proof provided by the printed label of the said release. Thank You Much for your Help Howicus

Howicus, I recognize you from the live chat. Now! I am also an aspiring editor, and I hope that I will be seen as being fair and adhering to Wikipedia's ethical policies. Just wielding your powers for yeilding sake is an abuse of power and it is against Wikipedia's policies. If you Bothered to take the time to read the correspondence between myself and Wgolf you would realise that Wgolf KINDLY asked me to categorise my Article- Something that such an EXPERT like you did not pick up on. Thanking him and asking him to remove the box was purely based on the Box regarding the categorization. I Was at no point referring to the hideous box at the top. But people like you and Santaku and Huon on the live desk are DRUNK with power! I am systematically and speedily working on my referencing so that I can move to other articles. But when people like yourselves try and make it harder for people tp progress to the next stage then it becomes PERSONAL. If you do not like the way I work or other people work Wikipedia has a method of Arbitration. Oh by the way, I hope I'm not talking to a BOT D — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cowhen1966 (talkcontribs) 09:35, 14 February 2014 (UTC) Cowhen1966 (talk) 09:56, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cowhen1996. First off, I want to be clear that I hold nothing against you personally or against Cecil Jay Roberts. My interest is in making sure that your article is in line with Wikipedia's policies. The box at the top lists issues with the article. It shouldn't be removed until those issues are resolved. I didn't see your conversation with Wgolf. All I saw is that they removed the box, and I don't think it should be removed yet. The article still needs independent, reliable sources to support the material in the article, especially since Roberts is a living person.
Another thing though...you've mentioned "abuses of power" a few times. I want to make it clear, I'm just a volunteer editor like you. I don't have any more power than you, just experience. If you're feeling harassed or bullied, I'm sorry. I'm just trying to make Wikipedia better (and I realize that's what you're trying to do too). Howicus (Did I mess up?) 23:49, 14 February 2014

Hello Howicus, Thanks for your response and all points have been noted. in future, I would endear you to take the time to check an editor's history so that you will be well informed of all correspondence! That way, we can avoid unnecessary editorial conflicts and possible vandalism. I say this because if you had checked Wgolf or my history, you would have noticed that I told him I was working on the referencing. You could have then given me some time to work on it rather than overriding Wgolf's action .That is what I mean by abuse of power. The fact that we can slap boxes on each other's work doesn't mean that we shouldn't have any relational ethics. Perhaps we can achieve more. For the record, I do not feel bullied or harassed at all- I was just drawing your attention to proper working relations among editors. I have pasted the guidelines that hopefully we should all be working towards. This article refers to the General standards and the declining of a submission. However, for the purposes of this correspondence I am referring to the General Standards and I hope this clears up the confusion. I hope to cite all my sources today after which I will alert you and kindly ask you to remove the box. Looking forward to working with you and meeting some other editors at the tea house. From one editor to another, Cowhen1966Cowhen1966 (talk) 16:09, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(UTC)General standards and invalid reasons for declining a submission

Information.svg AfC participants should follow the standards set by the standard policies and guidelines for what makes an acceptable article. As a rule of thumb, article submissions that have at least a 50% chance of surviving an AfD nomination should be accepted and published to mainspace. If you're unsure whether a particular submission should be accepted or declined, ask for advice from other reviewers at the project's talk page. Also, for submissions about particularly specialized subjects, consider asking for assistance on the talk page of a relevant WikiProject. Avoid the following errors Avoid declining an article because it correctly uses general references to support some or all of the material. The content and sourcing policies require inline citations for only four specific types of material, most commonly: direct quotations and contentious material (whether negative, positive, or neutral) about living persons. Avoid declining an article that meets the criteria for requiring inline citations because you wrongly assumed that the absence of little blue numbers meant that no inline citations existed. The use of <ref> tags, although popular, is not required. Editors may choose any form of inline citation, not just the most popular one. Many new editors choose a different style, and their choice is officially protected by Wikipedia's citation guidelines.

Avoid declining an article because the references contain bare URLs or other reference formatting problems. Instead, run the Reflinks Tool or tag the article with

or

.

Declining an article because it contains formatting issues, such as no wikilinks to other articles, or because it has no sections, is not acceptable. Instead, fix it yourself, or accept the article and tag it with maintenance templates to alert other editors to the one or two issues that you believe need to be resolved first. Declining an article because you personally don't like the citation style or formatting is not acceptable. Avoid declining an article because the reliable sources are not free or online. Books, magazines, and other print-only sources are perfectly acceptable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cowhen1966 (talkcontribs) 20:04, 15 February 2014‎Cowhen1966 (talk) 20:16, 15 February 2014 (UTC) Intention is for INFORMATION ONLY ( THIS IS NOT AN ARTICLE)Cowhen1966 (talk) 20:41, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Howicus, I have qouted all the sources I used to write the article. At least one good thing has come out of this, and that is, I must back up every statement I make with a source. Now, I can get on with some REAL work and help others quote their sources appropriately. Thanks for the heads up! Much appreciated and hope there are no hard feelings. The last thing we want is to get into juvenile editorial conflict. At least you have saved me from getting sued or from any possible libel. Do remove the box as soon as you get a minute. Regards and thanks!Cowhen1966 (talk) 20:23, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Howicus, since I have not heard from you, I may need to request for mediation. I do not want to get into edit warring with you. I am asking you nicely once again to review your contribution to the page I created. I am willing to give you 24 hours to make the changes. Failing that I will have to start a process of arbitration. I am new to this, and if i feel that people are targeting my work unfairly then I will involve administators to tell me where I am going wrong if at all? In good faith,Cowhen1966 (talk) 23:23, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, could you tell me again what changes these are, exactly? Howicus (Did I mess up?) 23:40, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I beg your pardon?Cowhen1966 (talk) 23:46, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You said "I am willing to give you 24 hours to make the changes." What did you mean by that?
Also, I have posted a message at Talk:Cecil Jay Roberts listing some concerns I have about the sources used in the article. I thought you might want a more detailed explanation of my concerns, and I placed it on the talk page so that other editors watching the page will see it too. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 23:50, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

24 hours is more than enough to remove the template. If you do not remove the template, then you will begin an edit warring seeing as your reason for putting the template on my article is subjective. I have seen the articles you have created some of which have even been declined. I sincerely want to treat you with good faith and adopt good practice. I expect you to act as hastily as you did to vandalise my article by removing the box. I have cited Independent sources so if you dont like them that is your problem. The rest is subjectiveCowhen1966 (talk) 00:29, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I think you're a bit unclear on how Wikipedia defines independent sources. On Wikipedia, "independent source" means independent from the subject of the article. This essay explains the definition well.
As far as the tag goes, I still feel the article needs improvement, as I detailed at the talk page, and I'm just using the tags to show where the room for improvement is. I don't think the tags should be removed until the issues are fixed. The article is improving, but it's not quite there yet. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 00:57, 16 February 2014 (UTC)I HAVE POSTED A LINK ON THE ARTICLE'S TALKPAGE! PERHAPS YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE EXCERPT WITH REGARDS TO COMMON SENSE EVALUATION. THERE IS MORE INFORMATION WITH REGARDS TO WIKIPEDIA GUIDELINES ON THAT PAGE. HOPE IT HELPS. As fr the article I will invlove arbtration so I'm informing you now.Cowhen1966 (talk) 03:50, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia has many policies and guidelines about encyclopedic content. These standards require verifiability, neutrality, respect for living people, and more.

The policies, guidelines, and process pages themselves are not part of the encyclopedia proper. Consequently, they do not generally need to conform with the content standards. It is therefore not necessary to provide reliable sources to verify Wikipedia's administrative pages, or to phrase Wikipedia procedures or principles in a neutral manner, or to cite an outside authority in determining Wikipedia's editorial practices. Instead, the content of these pages is controlled by community-wide consensus, and the style should emphasize clarity, directness, and usefulness to other editors.[2]

These pages do, however, need to comply with Wikipedia's legal and behavioral policies, as well as policies applicable to non-content pages. For example, editors may not violate copyrights anywhere on Wikipedia, and edit warring is prohibited everywhere, not merely in encyclopedia articles.

Oh and by the way, I DO FEEL BULLIIED AND HARRASSED BY YOURSELF AND SITEKU. Why did you remove my template? Are you starting an editting war?Cowhen1966 (talk) 03:54, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry that you feel bullied and harassed, it was not my intention to do so. I don't think arbitration is the right solution here, but I won't (and can't) stop you from seeking it if that's what you feel is needed. Also, if you're referring to the template on Italian cruiser San Marco, I did not remove it. You're a good-faith editor, I know that, and I'm sorry to see that you're frustrated. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 04:08, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am also sorry that we got off on the wrong foot! In fact, Cowhen1966 (talk) 16:50, 16 February 2014 (UTC)now that I have had time to look at the past few days leading up to this, I realise that Siteku is the one who has been stirring things up! Can you believe he has gone as far as to put my article up for deletion? Anyway, I want you to know that I do not hold any grudges against you. And if you happen to be in touch with Huon, please tell him I am sorry! Regards!Cowhen1966 (talk) 16:48, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
