USA! USA!

OMG you're probably American too! Now I am nationally disgraced as well as time/efficiency-shamed! When you are next in London please let me salvage my pride with (1) a visit to the wood in question and (2) beer (yes, just not that cold) or tea or whatever! Sheesh. I will have to fly the Union Jack at half-mast tonight – or I would if I had one! :) Cheers DBaK (talk) 14:39, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

DBaK, (last time I forgot to notice your preferred style of address, fixed it this time) - I enjoyed the challenge of trying to figure out what happened ten years ago and 4,790 miles away. I only came across Coldfall Wood through "Random article" and could there be a wood's name more intriguing than that? Then the added mystery of an editor claiming an historical article was "outdated"! It was an hour of pure fun. Schazjmd (talk) 14:48, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Haha, brilliant, thanks! It is a nice little local wood, with a bit of history (which you probably now know better than I do!) but not really a player on the stage of, er, global afforestation. But do please pop over – just the 4,790 miles, eh? – and enjoy it for yourself one day. Cheers DBaK (talk) 15:12, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CEN is now open!

To all interested parties: Now that it has a proper shortcut, the current events noticeboard has now officially opened for discussion!

WP:CEN came about as an idea I explored through a request for comment that closed last March. Recent research has re-opened the debate on Wikipedia's role in a changing faster-paced internet. Questions of WP:NOTNEWS and WP:Recentism are still floating around. That being said, there are still plenty of articles to write and hopefully this noticeboard can positively contribute to that critical process.

Thank you for your participation in the RFC, and I hope to see you at WP:CEN soon! –MJLTalk 19:10, 29 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan discretionary sanctions

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Thanks!

Thank you for reminding me to put my user info first. Cheers! Azvdo.art

Hey Schazjmd, thank you very much for your quick Apollo in Real Time article. I am one of the team members who was involved in the Apollo 13 project. In that section of the article you state that "The Apollo 13 site went live in April 2020", which is certainly supported by the source you cited. But the site actually went live a month earlier. In keeping with the guidelines of "No original research", you should of course not just take my word for it. But if you do more digging you might be able to find a factual source that corrects this. Feel free to contact me if you're having trouble finding anything.

Thanks! Ke6jjj (talk) 21:14, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ke6jjj, I'll see if I can find anything that will let me clarify the release date, thanks! And great work...I'm in awe of this project. Schazjmd (talk) 21:37, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Closest I can come is Air & Space saying Feist spoke to Air & Space Senior Editor Tony Reichhardt in March, a couple of weeks before the site went live in anticipation of the 50th anniversary of the launch on April 11. I've reworded the article to say The Apollo 13 site was live for the 50th anniversary of the launch in April 2020. I'd rather be imprecise than precisely wrong. Schazjmd (talk) 21:41, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
NASA's history office announced the release with this tweet: https://twitter.com/NASAhistory/status/1238455021773168647. I'm not sure if Twitter is a good enough source. I'll leave that up to you. I'll keep digging.Ke6jjj (talk) 21:44, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Ke6jjj, NASA is a verified account, I can use it. Thanks for your help! Schazjmd (talk) 21:47, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Alice Merton likes baking brownies

Strictly as a point of curiosity, based on this edit, do you (like me) watch Twitter for people bragging about vandalizing Wikipedia? Maybe there should be a {Template:User} for such sly stalkers so we can add a box to our user page! NedFausa (talk) 18:01, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NedFausa, ha! You do that too? I'm amazed at the number of joke/vandalism edits I've found because they can't stop themselves from bragging on Twitter. Schazjmd (talk) 18:02, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm so jealous, though, because you beat me to the punch today. Guess I'll have to double-down to keep ahead of the old sarge! NedFausa (talk) 18:06, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
NedFausa, I use tweetdeck and a search on "wikipedia", what's your method? Schazjmd (talk) 18:09, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly the same. I wish all such edits were harmless jokes like Alice Merton baking brownies. But many are vile BLP violations and other despicable trash. Anyhow, I'm glad I'm not alone in the fight. NedFausa (talk) 18:12, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
NedFausa, me too, because I can only take so much twitter. I'm sure I miss a lot, so glad you're also keeping an eye out. (I just caught a fantastic one, see my revert on Roger Sherman.) Schazjmd (talk) 18:15, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings

Thought I’d say hi since were are discussing. Always nice to meet a fellow armed forces veteran. I was over with my star ranker once to your space operations centre in Colorado, back in the past, and with him for a few exchange talks (but must admit, outside of when I was on deployment in Baghdad, didn’t have much contact with the US armed forces - expect maybe for seeing them do things on screens at Joint Operations). As you can expect, what with my star ranker being a Service Chief, I’ve had a few posting where all I did was minutes, papers, etc. I can only say what is my knowledge, I can’t comment on other armed forces quirks, as it is outside my wheelhouse - but that is our service writing standard and how it is used domestically.

Did you ever get over to Australia during your time? Apparently very popular posting so I understand it is very competitive - I did meet some nice Marines out at the Embassy once, they were loving it here. Kangaresearch (talk) 16:43, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kangaresearch, I never made it to Australia. You're right, there's lots of competition to get stationed there. But I did get to Italy, England, and Iceland, all great bases. Schazjmd (talk) 16:47, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately not me, I mostly got to stay back home with the in-tray lol, my US trip was the only non-operational duty trip (and I came back with the unwelcome gift of swine flu - sad face). All my other overseas gigs were to places nobody wants to visit (and were certainly not tourist destinations) - money was good but that was it. The delights of DFAC dining, mortars, IEDs, and months with 30 farting burping officers in one large room (it did have water views though lol, if you went to the roof, and the locals were resting) were lost on me. I did encounter my first military mayor though, when I was in Baghdad, that was something novel - I worked pretty closely with COL Tracey (they had much nicer digs than ours) most of that deployment. Veterans are never short a war story or two eh. Kangaresearch (talk) 17:03, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
By the by, I did a little research (given us military and civilian practice is not my expertise and as we don’t even have the same English, drawing inferences from our side to yours would be a bit risky) out of interest and I am reliably informed that the us government - included the armed forces - follow the Chicago Manual of Style for this and other things. Did a quick check seems to match. Basically the US only uppercase when used with a person’s name, otherwise lowercase. One of those colour / color - honour / honor things I guess. Kangaresearch (talk) 18:46, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Kangaresearch, MOS:MILTERMS might have been based on Chicago, I'm not sure...wasn't around here when most of these rules came into being. Schazjmd (talk) 18:54, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Not something I ever gave any thought to, as I didn’t have to I guess, but an interesting factoid. And while US and Australian forces carry out joint operations more and more now, I guess it is not high up on the list there either, but I know sometimes we can have very very different SOPs from each other, even if some things share some commonalities. At least we share more common platforms now, I guess, than we used to. Kangaresearch (talk) 19:04, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Inadvertent pings

Sorry if you got a ping that I mentioned you, seems to be a glitch in the method I used to archive conversations from my talk page (which I won't be using again). Schazjmd (talk) 16:37, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

How to update education?

I don't have a citation for a awarded degree. I included a citation to the Annual. What are we supposed to use?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Truthman68 (talkcontribs) 18:43, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Truthman68, if we don't have a reliable source for information, we don't include it in an article. Schazjmd (talk) 18:51, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Any talk page watchers?

If so, I'd really appreciate experienced editors weighing in at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Carl Haglund (real estate) because to me it seems such a gray area in notability and I really don't know what the right call is on it. Schazjmd (talk) 17:45, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your reply to my dilemma that "You can't add or fix pings"

Schazjmd, thanks for the info about pinging. The documentation is "Template:Reply to,", of course; if I were to write the documentation, that is exactly what I would have called it probably, maybe.

A "(talk page watcher)", Ha Ha! I like to watch too, but mostly I am not sure where would be a good place to look.

I guess I could have replied to you by doing a notification to you from a post on Doug's page. I will try that.

I will take you up on the offer to ask you questions.

About my Talk page, it is a mess. Until recently I didn't know I had anywhere else to save things on Wikipedia. So everything I needed to save for reference and such I put there and it grew and it grew. Yes, archiving sounds like a good thing to do, I'll check with you late on that.

But first I need to get up to speed on "replying to" methodology.

Thank you very much.

Late apologies

Hello Schazjmd, I just wanted to issue an apology for previous edits I made that were unsourced many months back. While the issue is over, I still wanted to issue a formal apology as I continue my quest to productive edits. Happy editing!Lima Bean Farmer (talk) 05:49, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lima Bean Farmer, an apology isn't needed, but thank you for taking the time to offer it. Schazjmd (talk) 13:51, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Select edits

To be honest Schazjmd, it seems like wikipedia only requires changes to be backed up with a citation to a reliable source when the person or group is of a certain political view. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aqwert777 (talkcontribs) 03:44, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Aqwert777, I presume you're referring to this revert. Per WP:BLP, any controversial claims about a living person must have a solid source. Schazjmd (talk) 15:13, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My cheer wiki Suggestion.

Did you read my cheer wiki talk? I was wondering if we could have ever possibly do what I asked? MerlinLionHeart (talk) 10:37, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

MerlinLionHeart, thanks for bringing that to my attention, I didn't notice your comment there. I've replied on the article's Talk page. Schazjmd (talk) 14:23, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I replied again on the “Cheerleading” article Talk page but I don’t know if it was published. So when ever you get the chance please check it out. MerlinLionHeart (talk) 05:35, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

MerlinLionHeart, there is no new comment from you on Talk:Cheerleading. Schazjmd (talk) 13:49, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Image

Can you delete this [1]? I uploaded the wrong image. Zoe1013 (talk) 19:08, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Zoe1013, sorry, I don't have that power. Only administrators can delete files. You can replace the content on that page with {{db-author}}, and an administrator should delete it fairly quickly, then you can upload the correct image. Schazjmd (talk) 19:17, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nevermind. I think I will just keep the image. Is it against copyright violation if I took a picture of my library book? Zoe1013 (talk) 19:19, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The earlier copyright violation was claiming it as your own work. If this file uses the non-free content rationale (as it appears to do), it can be used in that book's article. Schazjmd (talk) 19:23, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(adding a @Zoe1013: just in case you're not watching the page) Schazjmd (talk) 19:24, 11 September 2020 (UTC) UTC)[reply]

Then in the future I can take picture of library book cover and upload it to Wikipedia as long as I don’t claim it as my own. Zoe1013 (talk) 19:27, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Zoe1013, as long as they meet the WP:Non-free use rationale guideline and the upload provides a proper non-free-use rationale, yes. Schazjmd (talk) 19:31, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Do I have to use this image: [2]? I took a picture of my library book. Is that allowed? Zoe1013 (talk) 19:32, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Zoe1013, this second image is better quality than the photo you took. Another editor might replace the photo in the article with an image like that. Schazjmd (talk) 19:34, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The second image is from the source. [3] Can I take the image from the source? Is that copyright violation to use the library book cover or the source? Zoe1013 (talk) 19:35, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Zoe1013, you can upload the source image using non-free-use rationale for a book cover to be used in the article about that book. Schazjmd (talk) 19:42, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reduce size of image

How do you reduce the size of image? This edit says I need to reduce the size of image. You can’t make image smaller. So I have asked for the image to be deleted because the image can’t be reduced. Zoe1013 (talk) 21:57, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Zoe1013, I'm not an expert at images, but the notice itself tells you that a bot will take care of it in about 24 hours. The notice is there to notify the bot to fix it. Revert your deletion tag and put the size notice back. Schazjmd (talk) 22:04, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Already reverted myself. So a bot will make the image smaller? How? I don’t know how to do it. How come he can? Zoe1013 (talk) 22:08, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Zoe1013, bots are software programs that perform defined tasks. I don't know how the program works, it just does. Schazjmd (talk) 22:10, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Authentication for RICO Edits

We spent five years researching Paul Rico and the surrounding controversies. We researched the transcripts of congressional hearings, other testimony, and conducted hundreds of interviews of witnesses. Joe Wolfinger and I are both retired special agents of the FBI and licensed attorneys and have independent sources for every fact. If it will help, we can include many additional footnotes for each fact (independent of our book). The page that exists is very poorly sourced and completely unreliable (e.g., some purported "FBI mugshot?" Not possible since Rico was never arrested or charged by the FBI. Other sources include "Reader's Digest," etc.). We are not experts in Wikipedia and are interested only in getting this information corrected. We are open to any suggestions you might have.Chriskerresq (talk) 19:20, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Chriskerresq, what you need to do is begin a discussion at Talk:Paul Rico. Explain the changes that you want to make to the article and the sources for the information. By discussing with other editors interested in that topic, you can get consensus for adding the new information to the article. Schazjmd (talk) 19:25, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Haglund Foundation Twitter account

Hi there,

Although the Haglund Foundation's Twitter account does not bear a verified checkmark from Twitter, it is linked from the footer of the Haglund Foundation's official home page, which is already included as an external link in Carl Haglund (real estate). I think it's reasonable to conclude that it is the official account of the foundation. Per WP:BLPSPS, is it justified to include information sourced to the foundation's Twitter account?

White 720 (talk) 22:49, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

White 720, I don't agree that it's WP:DUE even under WP:BLPSPS. So what if they started a petition about something? Unless independent sources have taken note of it and given it coverage, it's just a self-serving claim. It's an encyclopedia article about Haglund, not a PR vehicle for his foundation. Schazjmd (talk) 23:07, 21 September 2020 (UTC) Conversation on Talk:Carl Haglund[reply]

Abdala Bucaram Jr.

I disagree with the removal of my edit. It simply stated that there was an order for his detention and that he was being investigated. Your reason for deleting stated he had been detained but no charges filed. I never said any charges had been filed.skmply that he was being investigated which is completely true and verifiable. Could you also please support the claim that he was detained? He fled the country under suspicious circumstances, while travel was prohibited, before he could be detained. TruthDoesMatter2020 (talk) 17:23, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

TruthDoesMatter2020, I was reviewing pending edits and felt that there is a question whether it should be included in a WP:BLP. As I said on my edit summary, please discuss on the article talk page and get consensus from other editors on whether the information should be mentioned in the article. Schazjmd (talk) 17:32, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Theories entry

Nice work with the Cynical Theories entry. I see that someone drafted an entry for Helen Pluckrose, which was not deleted but parked on account her lack of "notability." I don't quite agree--there are lots of authors with only one big book to their credit who yet have a wiki entry. At the same time, it wasn't as well written a job as yours here. You did a nice job. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nigetastic (talkcontribs) 15:21, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nigetastic, thank you! And I really appreciate you adding that review to the article, I hadn't seen that one. Schazjmd (talk) 15:26, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello.

I saw that you put a tag on this page. I apologize for my tardy editing. I've now altered the content quite extensively. Could you please check to see whether it's up to code now? I wouldn't want to unilaterally remove the tag.

Thanks in advance.

O.ominirabluejack (talk) 23:25, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

O.ominirabluejack, the article still uses too much wording from another source. Articles need to be written in your own words, summarizing what reliable sources say; not pasting their words. You can see the result of the comparison here. Schazjmd (talk) 23:29, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
O.ominirabluejack, I've gone ahead and removed the tag for now, but please rewrite the remaining copyright violations as soon as possible, thanks! Schazjmd (talk) 23:31, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks Schazjmd... I'll try again. O.ominirabluejack (talk) 23:33, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

O.ominirabluejack, thanks for working on it. I've put a tag on so an admin can hide the versions that contained the copyrighted text; don't worry, your most recent version of the article will remain. Schazjmd (talk) 00:23, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your contributed article, Meetei Puya(Meitei Puya Lailik)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Meetei Puya(Meitei Puya Lailik). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Puya (Meitei texts). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Puya (Meitei texts). If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. noq (talk) 13:58, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gremista.32, the problem is that you're adding references to sources that don't actually support the content where you're citing them, and they aren't necessarily even reliable sources. For example, in Eleanor of Castile, you added a reference to an ad for a book about Eleanor. In Egypt (Roman province), you put a reference to a page about Egypt that says nothing about the actual content, which is An army of 4,000 Arabs led by Amr Ibn Al-Aas was sent by the Caliph Umar, successor to Muhammad, to spread Islamic rule to the west. Arabs crossed into Egypt from Palestine in December 639,
In articles, references support specific content. If I write Murrow gave a speech in 1971 that was highly acclaimed., I would also add a reference that specifically mentions the speech and how it was received. See how that works? Schazjmd (talk) 00:19, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes 👀Gremista.32 (talk) 00:24, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gremista.32, I took a look at your recent edits. In this edit, you cited a post on a forum. User-generated content, such as forums, Reddit, blogs, etc, are not reliable sources. Please read Reliable sources to learn more about suitable sources for article content. Schazjmd (talk) 22:28, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I use Portuguese Wikipedia to search for references 👀Gremista.32 (talk) 22:31, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gremista.32, you have to be careful doing that. Each language Wikipedia project has its own rules and policies, and just because something is allowed on another Wikipedia doesn't mean it's okay on the English one. Schazjmd (talk) 22:33, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

RAJIVVASUDEV, thanks for addressing the when question! Schazjmd (talk) 13:34, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Harry Loucks was one of the key figures in Rolling Wood's development. Loucks (along with his father) were major realtors and developers on Long Island during this time, and did work in places like Brookville New York, Syosset, New York, and Roslyn Estates, New York. I have added this information to the article.

Please keep in mind that this article is very new. It was started roughly 24 hours ago (as of the time I am posting this). I am expanding it and will continue to do so. LINYperson615 (talk) 21:34, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

LINYperson615, I don't think that information adds any value to the question of notability of the neighborhood. But it's possible that other editors won't agree with me; that's the purpose of the article discussion. It will run for 7 days. Schazjmd (talk) 21:17, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Also, LINYperson615, please read the notability guideline that I cite in my nomination: WP:GEOFEAT. It details the notability requirements for this type of article. Schazjmd (talk) 21:24, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

SchazjmdI did, and I just added more information. Another thing about this subdivision is that the original 14 homes were all of unique designs (mentioned in source 1). Additionally (and I am about to add this in), the Guggenheims were very prominent landowners on this part of Long Island during this time period. They made their fortune through mining, and Edmond was a relative of Solomon R. Guggenheim (as in the museum); please see the Guggenheim family article for more information on the family. LINYperson615 (talk) 21:29, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

LINYperson615, but the Guggenheims have nothing to do with the subject of the article, except for having been previous owners of the land. Please understand that I'm not saying it's a bad article; you did a very good job with it. My contention is that the subject of the article isn't notable. Anyway, please feel free to continue improving the article. Schazjmd (talk) 21:50, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Schazjmd, if I did anything inappropriate, please let me know. I just thought that removing the redirect was the best way to handle it. They also copied the article's talk page content to their talk page so I deleted that as well. S0091 (talk) 23:29, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

S0091, no, I don't think you did anything wrong at all! I appreciate you deleting the inappropriate content there, I was just going to let an obviously-NOT-new editor clean up after themselves. But apparently we both wandered into a sock drawer. Schazjmd (talk) 23:32, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Dang socks! S0091 (talk) 23:39, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If we encounter similar behavior in the future, it's related to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kingshowman (fyi). Schazjmd (talk) 00:05, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that one. Thanks for the information, Schazjmd. S0091 (talk) 00:11, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Daveburstein (talk) 16:01, 9 November 2020 (UTC) Thanks for accepting I made an honest mistake on the Jemisin picture. I think livelier pictures would be better, but that's not the community decision. I've since heard from Nora she likes the old picture, even if it doesn't do her justice.[reply]
