LEGO Creator

In 2008 you added an unsourced section to the LEGO Creator video game article concerning the ability for users to upload third-party models into LEGO Creator. Do you recall which sources gave you that information? --Nick2253 (talk) 07:53, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I had added it to the external links and forgot to add cited source tag. The website is now 404 - archive.org has it still though. http://web.archive.org/web/20071009120250/http://www.comlink.de/cl-hh/f.moeller/creator%20collection.html Lot's of fun stuff for the old program! The site also has a manual and most of the zips are archived as well.... However after re-visiting I really don't see how LDraw and "other modeling software" have anything to do with it. Feel free to remove or consolidate. Gaming4JC (talk) 23:53, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ron Paul Page -- newsletter controversy

Thank you for your contributions on Ron Paul. However, the edit you made, adding a point about whether James Powell may have written one or more articles in the Ron Paul newsletter, has been discussed extensively on the Talk page, and there is a clear consensus to not include it, for reasons spelled out at great length there. I reverted.

Please join in the Talk page before making edits to such a controversial section of a semi-protected page. Thank you! Msalt (talk) 06:04, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

January 2015

Information icon Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 02:26, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
More cited sources added. Section needed to provide. WP:NPOV. Thank you. Gaming4JC (talk) 02:27, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

These sources don't support the text you added and/or are inadmissibly poor. It's going to be difficult to even source a paragraph on "pro-abortion violence" because it simply is not a phenomenon, while anti-abortion violence is widespread. Even if you could come up with the sources, you'd never be able to observe due weight and neutrality; the whole reason the three incidents you cite (Pouillon's murder, which we know was not politically motivated; Miller-Young's taking the protester's sign; and Theodore Shulman's threats) get so hyped up by anti-abortion bloggers is because there's literally nothing else to point to, while scholars writing about anti-abortion violence are, pardon the pun, spoiled for choice, when you look at the number of high-profile murders, assaults, hundreds of bombings, presence of several on the FBI Most Wanted, etc. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 06:32, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I can keep adding sources. Just because it doesn't happen as often doesn't mean it doesn't happen and isn't noteworthy. Violence on either side is not the right way to go. Information is for historical purposes and academic use. Gaming4JC (talk) 21:38, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You continue adding extremely poor sources in order to claim that minor isolated incidents are a phenomenon. Please read WP:RS and WP:WEIGHT and do not add this material back. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 00:33, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Abortion debate. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 00:47, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I fully respect your oppinion and agree it should be on Talk:Abortion_debate. I did not intend on any edit war in my attempt to find cited sources. According to WP:Notability many of the ones listed should meet Wikipedia:Reliable sources standards. (Huffingtonpost, MSNBC, Fox, etc.) There should be more consesus and the article cleaned up. I notice some stub tags from 2009. Gaming4JC (talk) 01:16, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Stop reverting my edits

You need to stop reverting my edits to the Crime in the United States article, and more importantly you need not refer to them as "vandalism" at any time in tne future. It is a veritable fact that crime in the United States was present before colonization. The White man did not teach the Red man how to kill people and mutilate their bodies, and steal, and rape. They were doing it long before he arrived.

I am going to correct your deleterious actions to the Crime in the United States article, and I suggest that you refrain from touching it afterwards.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crow_Creek_massacre

Be sure to cite your sources, there's been a more than usual amount of vandalism tonight from unregistered users; prehistoric times sounded much similar to the gag of including barrack obama in Marvel characters list. Thanks. - Gaming4JC (talk) 03:05, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Trans-Pacific Partnership, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Republican and EFF (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Regarding edits to Anthony Johnson colonist

I'm inquiring about the tag you've placed in the section titled "Significance of Casor Suit". All three sources are published by either scholarly journals or university presses and are the strongest examples of sources as defined by WP:reliable. Two of the citations specifically label the pages the information can be found. So I don't understand your addition of the tag and was hoping you'd explain what it is you're concerned about.Scoobydunk (talk) 23:49, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Several of the sources were not properly named or linked to. I was unable to find "Klein, 43-44.", "Breen1980, p. 8.", etc. If you could please use the full names of these books and/or link to JSTOR or similar it would be helpful to complete these sources. - Gaming4JC (talk) 02:20, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know much about formatting references, but both of those references are properly sourced in the "references" and "sources" section. Breen's book is "Myne Owne Ground" and Herbert Klein's full citation can be found under sources. The information is there so if you want it to be streamlined or formatted differently you don't have to look far for the info. It's all at the bottom of the pageScoobydunk (talk) 03:57, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Gaming4JC (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Requesting an IP address block exemption, because my commercial VPN provider is being blocked. Editing from 108.61.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by Elockid, and Editing from 104.200.151.0/24 has been blocked (disabled) by Mike V. Alternatively, just remove the wide ranging blocks. Gaming4JC (talk) 18:07, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notes:

  • In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
  • Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.
