Code

The code I posted is a proof of concept; ignore BHG's comments as she really doesn't know what she's talking about. Getting WMF to implement such a tool would be extremely difficult. If you really want to see such a tool (specifically, one that creates a list of likely joke or irrelevancy categories), I'd be happy to code it, but I'm not willing to register a domain and rent web space on which to host it. If you are willing to do those things, I'll happily start writing such a tool. But BHG has to stay out of such an endeavor: I'm not willing to work with a person who insists upon creating such a toxic environment. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 18:52, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks User:MjolnirPants. Let's see if anyone cooperates with me at VP/T. You and BHG sure do have quite a feud going. We need a WP:List of feuds! 🙂 Anythingyouwant (talk) 19:13, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, BHG has a huge problem with everyone who's disagreed with her. Suffice it to say that she's wrong about the code (and about me and everyone else she thinks is a "selfish extremist troll" but whatever). If you can't get any help from WMF, and you're willing to lease some web space, I'll be happy to help you out by making this. I've watchlisted your page for now, so feel free to continue here without notifying me. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 19:49, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This edit

[1] misrepresented sources and introduced POV into the article rather than removing it, as your edit summary claimed. Please see my comment here. Please self-revert your edit as it violates Wikipedia policies of WP:NPOV and WP:V.Volunteer Marek (talk) 03:55, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I misrepresented a source because I paraphrased instead of quoted it? I don't think so. Please discuss matters like this at the article talk page, not here. Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:05, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker)@Volunteer Marek: IMHO, there's nothing wrong with that edit. It's not POV at all. Now, the word "negative" in that sentence looks pretty POV, but that was there already. In fact, I wholeheartedly approve of the inclusion of "breaking" because it highlights the impact of the story mentioned by the article. If I were you, I'd self-revert while removing the word "negative". ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 13:31, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
VM and I had a subsequent long discussion at the article talk page, replete with more incorrect accusations of "misrepresentation" by me, but the thing finally settled down, permanently I hope. Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:19, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To be fair, I respect VM and think them to be a good editor. I just don't agree with them on everything (this being one of those things). But then, that's true of pretty much everyone. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 18:28, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Abbé Martin

Hi, I changed the phrasing for the first two Martins on the Abbé Martin disambiguation page ([2]). However, are you sure Abbé Raynal was ever called Abbé Martin? And also, do you think the Abbé Martin from Béziers deserves a mention there (not to mention on the Seafield Convent page)? I would be tempted to say he does not. Greetings. darthbunk pakt dunft 20:34, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Darthbunk_Pakt_Dunft, according to the article Guillaume Thomas François Raynal (emphasis added), "He had the assistance of various members of the philosophe côteries in his most important work, L'Histoire philosophique et politique des établissements et du commerce des Européens dans les deux Indes (Philosophical and Political History of the Two Indies[3] Amsterdam, 4 vols., 1770[1]). Diderot is credited with a third of this work, which was characterized by Voltaire as 'du réchauffé avec de la declamation.' The other chief collaborators were Pechméja, Baron d'Holbach, Paulze, the farmer-general of taxes, the Abbé Martin, and Alexandre Deleyre." I have no opinon about whether Martin should be mentioned at Seafield Convent Grammar School, but if he's mentioned there then I favor mentioning him at the dab page. Anythingyouwant (talk) 20:48, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply. However, this does not state that Raynal himself was that Abbé Martin but that Raynal's book was co-written by another Abbot, namely that Martin. 'the other collaborators', states the page. Other than Diderot and Abbé Raynal; see Histoire des deux Indes#Authors. They are two different persons. As for the Béziers Martin, I'll leave it up to you. darthbunk pakt dunft 21:04, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
User:Darthbunk_Pakt_Dunft, I never said they were the same person. I merely pipe-linked to a Wikipediea article where they're both mentioned. Why do you think I said they were the same person? Anythingyouwant (talk) 21:08, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
All right, I see now! I had misinterpreted the link leading from the Abbé Martin's name, directly to Raynal. Apologies. As I think that was confusing, I'll change the phrasing. Feel free to amend it if it's awkward. As a result of your explanation, I am now not sure any of those two Abbé Martin deserves an entry on the disambiguation page, but, like I said, I'll leave it up to you. Greetings,darthbunk pakt dunft 21:16, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I guess if we want to do this exactly right, we should follow WP:DABRELATED, User:Darthbunk_Pakt_Dunft. Anythingyouwant (talk) 21:28, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Are the Abbé Martin "actually described" on the target pages? I would say no. Also I realized why I had assumed you had identified Raynal with Martin. You hadn't, in truth, but another user had indeed and they had added Raynal's death-birth years to Martin ([3]). The current version does make it clear they cannot be the same person. The only (smaller) issue that remains now is wether the 2 first AM's deserve any mention at all. darthbunk pakt dunft 03:52, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say that they are discussed and described to some extent, so there's no harm listing them in the dab page. Cheers. Anythingyouwant (talk) 07:45, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comey

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


There's ongoing discussion of the lede wording in a lengthy talkpage thread. Please undo your POV rewrite and let the talk consensus be implemented. SPECIFICO talk 12:56, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would certainly undo it if I thought it was "POV". Instead, I have started a talk page subsection explaining why it's not. Anythingyouwant (talk) 15:34, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker) I took a look at that re-write, and while "...that were widely interpreted by news analysts..." positively drips POV-pushiness, the rest of it actually looks pretty good (anything which is "widely interpreted by news analysts" is something we should state as a fact, in wikivoice). If anyone is interested in my opinion, I would remove that phrase, and instead state in wikivoice that they were contradictory, because such a statement is well-sourced, easily verifiable, non-POV and completely true. Whatever the reason Trump actually thought as he decided to fire Comey, Trump did contradict himself, first claiming it was the result of the memo, then later admitting to requesting the memo be written after deciding to fire Comey. Note how this doesn't make the firing a mistake, or implicate Trump in the Russia affair any further; it just makes it clear that Trump's public statements were not cohesive.
(pinging @SPECIFICO: because this is not her TP). ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 16:39, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
MP, the lead of that article now says: "He then gave contradictory explanations for the dismissal. Ye Hee Lee, Michelle (May 12, 2017). "All of the White House's conflicting explanations for Comey's firing: A timeline". The Washington Post. The president then contradicted his staff's earlier comments. In a preview video clip of his interview with NBC News, Trump said he planned to fire Comey all along, regardless of Department of Justice recommendations. Contradicting what some staff member said is far different from Trump contradicting himself, it seems to me. If the lead were to say Trump contradicted a staff member, then I would have no objection to dropping the qualifier ("that were widely interpreted by news analysts"). A WaPo report is more reliable than some miscellaneous news analysis from Think Progress. Anythingyouwant (talk) 16:42, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I see the problem you're referring to there, but that does not justify the wording I mentioned above. You can read the dismissal letter, signed by Trump and right there in the infobox. Those are Trump's words, either by composition, or by endorsement, words which he later contradicted. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 16:56, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The WaPo quote says he contradicted a staff member: "The president then contradicted his staff’s earlier comments". If he contradicted himself too, I'd like the see a reliable source that says how he did so, rather than a bare accusation from an unreliable source. Anyway, this discussion probably belongs at the article talk page. Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:13, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not disagreeing with you about what the WaPo source says, it doesn't support that wording. But this source, which was the first google search result for Trump contradicted himself Comey supports it. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 18:34, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
MP, regarding that source you cite, I think it's best for us to not extrapolate or rely entirely upon an article headline, which may have been written by someone other than the article author and not be as accurate as the article body. In that source, the article body says: "The White House said this week that Comey had lost the confidence of the bureau, a claim McCabe contradicted on Thursday when speaking to a Senate committee." Again, that's a contradiction among (or with) staff, not an instance of Trump being contradicted by himself. That source also captions a Newsy video by mentioning a contradiction, but the video itself only mentions the contradiction with McCabe (it also discusses a "shift" from the justification regarding investigation of Clinton's emails, but that shift to another argument did not evidently or purportedly imply any repudiation of the first argument). Anythingyouwant (talk) 20:14, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't rely on the headline.
In a letter Trump sent to Comey on Tuesday, the president wrote that he fired the director based on the recommendations of Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. But in an interview Thursday with NBC's Lester Holt, Trump claimed that Sessions and Rosenstein didn't influence his decision at all. Trump had already made up his mind.
That's the second paragraph of the article. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 20:16, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
MP, if the source didn't characterize that as a "contradiction" then I wouldn't necessarily characterize that way either. Just because someone recommends an action to me, and I accept the recommendation, doesn't mean that I wouldn't have taken the action anyway for additional reasons, or for the same exact reasons, or for entirely different reasons. If I did characterize that position of Trump as a contradiction, I would certainly indicate whether he was repudiating what Rosenstein and Sessions wrote, but I do not see any source that says Trump disagreed with one word of what Sessions and Rosenstein wrote. Anythingyouwant (talk) 20:27, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Whether or not two statements as clear as these contradict is not an opinion. It's not subjective. Come on now. Don't be ridiculous. I think you should take a look at WP:SYNTHNOT. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 20:29, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So you think Trump contradicted what Rosenstein wrote? I think that's just political spin, and completely unsupported by any reliable source, yet it is what the lead of that Wikipedia article very strongly implies. Just because someone recommends an action to you, and you accept the recommendation, doesn't mean that you wouldn't have taken the action anyway for additional reasons, or for the same exact reasons, or for entirely different reasons. This should be fairly obvious. Anythingyouwant (talk) 20:34, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So you think Trump contradicted what Rosenstein wrote? No. I know (not think, and I understand that knowing is not the same thing as really really believing) that "I have received the attached letters from the Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General of the United States recommending your dismissal as the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigations. I have accepted their recommendation..." and "I was going to fire regardless of (their) recommendation." are contradictory. The first USA Today source I linked to (the one I added to the article lead) makes the statement I quoted above, which can be succinctly summarized as "Trump contradicted himself." The suggestion that the source I provide is factually wrong is irrelevant to Wikipedia, and rather ridiculous to boot. The suggestion that the source doesn't support the claim about Trump contradicting himself is, itself contradicted by various facts, including the definition and common usage of "contradiction" and the guideline to summation in articles.
P.S. Trump didn't 'accept their recommendation' -regardless of what Trump said in the letter firing him- he told the AG and DAG to recommend that he fire Comey. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 21:04, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say the source is wrong, I said you're distorting it. I can accept a recommendation to do something that I would have done anyway. Prior to 2017, anyone with an elementary education would have understood the same thing.🙂 Even more absurd is the notion that Trump has ever disagreed with Rosenstein's argument. Anythingyouwant (talk) 21:20, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Now you've descending into Poe's law territory, so I think we're done here. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 21:32, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The smiley face I used above was not to indicate sarcasm or parody. Cheers. Anythingyouwant (talk) 22:38, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a bit strange

Why exactly did you make these edits? Not saying they're wrong, but AFAICT you've never edited that article before, nor showed any interest in the topic, but all of sudden you pop up on this completely-out-of-your-interests article shortly after I make a couple edits. You stalking me or something?  Volunteer Marek  02:42, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am very interested in Kovin and have been for about 35 years. Anythingyouwant (talk) 02:44, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yeah, me too. Volunteer Marek  03:23, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I doubt it. But, anyone who studies warfare should learn about Kovin. False news of a skirmish there brought on a world war, or two world wars given that WWII was substantially caused by the flawed settlement of WWI. The false news from Kovin profoundly shapes the world we live in today. Had the reports from Kovin adhered to NPOV, much bloodshed would have been prevented. Eerily similar to reports about the Gulf of Tonkin incident. Anythingyouwant (talk) 03:29, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I am going to politely suggest you strike this, though see my comment in response. You appear to be claiming that I made ANOTHER revert, by restoring the NPOV tag. This is about as bad faithed of a complaint as you can make, seeing as how I'm partially self reverting to please you. What's next, I revert myself everywhere on Wikipedia and you go running to admins to complain that Volunteer Marek is edit warring against himself?

Ok, maybe that wasn't as polite as it should be, but the hypocrisy on display is a bit too much. I don't know, maybe you didn't closely look at the edit and it was an honest mistake. Or something. Volunteer Marek  03:57, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Tag-warring is covered just as much by 1RR as any other article edits. Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:00, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You're gonna stick with this? Really? Oookay. Please please please report me for restoring that tag. I beg you. Volunteer Marek  04:04, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Already did. Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:06, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Really? Where?  Volunteer Marek  04:10, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Look up above at this page to where you wrote "Ok, I am going to politely suggest you strike this...." and click on the link you gave. Also, please stop talking to me at two different talk pages; pick this one or Samsara's. Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:13, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That's not "reporting", that's just bugging-admins-for-a-block-because-you-hope-they're-biased or because-they're-too-lazy-too-actually-read-the-diffs. I mean, please report me for restoring that tag to 3RR noticeboard or WP:AE. Please. Volunteer Marek  04:15, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If Samsara doesn't resolve the matter. Good night. Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:17, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah didn't thinks so. You are "brave" enough to go agitating with someone who you think is a favorably disposed admin (behind my back too, without notifying me) but you are not brave enough to file a legitimate report at 3RR or AE. I understand, those curved Australian weapons are pretty intimidating, especially after you've been smacked by one a couple times prior. Safer to do it under the radar through back channels, eh?
And seriously, if you want me to "self revert" myself and remove that NPOV tag I would be more than happy to do so. I'm just concerned that were I do so you would start pretending that that was another revert too. I mean, can't exactly trust your track record here when it comes to good faith. Or... you could remove the NPOV tag yourself, I won't complain. So if my removal of the tag bugs you so much that you want to call it edit warring, why not do it yourself? Rigggghhhhttttt... because it's not actually about the removal of the tag (which you like), it's about trying to manufacture a bullshit excuse to bother an admin for a sanction. Volunteer Marek  15:35, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Atsme already notified you, and so you responded within four minutes at Samsara's page.[4] Please go away, you're not welcome here until November. I already asked you to choose a user talk page, and now I'm choosing it for you. Persuading you to self-revert is the whole reason why I went to your user talk yesterday. Anythingyouwant (talk) 15:47, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to remove the NPOV tag yourself. I mean, you're complaining about me restoring it, so yeah, do it. Show you're serious. Volunteer Marek  15:56, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Go away from this talk page, as instructed above. Anythingyouwant (talk) 15:58, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit war at CBS

Your edits at this article indicate you are involved in an edit war. Continuing to reinstate contents that multiple editors have reverted is the essence of edit warring. Please self-revert and use the article talk page to reach consensus. Failure to go the route of discussion will result in a temporary loss of editing privileges. Because of length of time you've been contributing to Wikipedia, and the 75,000 edits you made indicate you already know this. — Neonorange (talk) 22:41, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Could you possibly leave a message for me in greater bad faith? You yourself reverted and then came here complaining that I should self-revert. How could I possibly self-revert what you have already reverted? Give me a frigging break. I reverted once and only once at that article, and my revert was completely proper. What gall you have, User:Neonorange. Anythingyouwant (talk) 23:04, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize—somehow I got the impression you had reverted my reversion of your reinsertion. My note here on your talk page was a result of my misapprehension. I am not sure how I made that mistake. I will try to be more careful in the future. Please accept that my note here was not made in bad faith. Thank you for not continuing to insert the material. — Neonorange (talk) 20:26, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stop messing with my talk page post

You keep changing the header on my talkpage section to make it appear I'm referring to your 10 month old RfC that you apparently feel is justification for your current edit-war. Well you know you should not be changing my talk page header to change its meaning. I started a fresh section and it's not about "Jane Doe RfC" or whatever you would like. Please undo that. I presume you know that talk pages, like article pages, are subject to 1RR restrictions. SPECIFICO talk 23:59, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I had zero involvement with that RFC. You really want me to go through all my comments today, and change “top of this talk page section” to “the previous talk page section”? Anythingyouwant (talk) 00:04, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. The problem is entirely something you created by violating WP:TALKO. Nobody else is going to fix your mess. Remember what Colin Powell said about the Pottery Barn rule. SPECIFICO talk 01:04, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Is Colin Powell going to attack me for this too? Or maybe this? I’d like to know just how much you want me to change. Also, where is it decided that talk pages are automatically subject to 1RR restrictions if the corresponding article is? Anythingyouwant (talk) 01:08, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You removed Sudan!

I figured you must have had a good reason, so I didn't put it back. SPECIFICO talk 20:24, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. See your edit here in which Sudan was removed. Anyway, it belongs in there. Anythingyouwant (talk) 20:41, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Tmesisternus ludificator. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks! Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 02:49, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t think that infobox has a caption parameter. Anythingyouwant (talk) 02:54, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Unmasking by intelligence agencies for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Unmasking by intelligence agencies is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Unmasking by intelligence agencies until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. - MrX 18:57, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I read through all that discussion and I had hard time identifying what specific content was UNDUE. It's pretty clear that the sexual assault allegations have some folks riled up. BTW, I love your tag on the user page that says TIRED. :-) I have edited that article for over a year and Moore makes his own controversies. Octoberwoodland (talk) 02:57, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and welcome to my humble Wikipedia abode. In response to your comment above, I have commented at the article talk page. Moore is certainly an interesting character, and I hope we do him justice. Cheers. Anythingyouwant (talk) 03:06, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Re

To this. If you read my response, I recommended wait a couple of days and see what happens. But of course nothing precludes you from commenting anywhere if you feel strongly about something. My very best wishes (talk) 17:52, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I’m not going to comment until I know where to comment, and probably other uninvolved editors feel the same way. Hopefully I will know where to comment before the whole substantive matter is decided one way or the other. But it may well be decided without my input if I merely wait a couple days to see what happens. And that would suck. User:My very best wishes, have you ever seen a closed complaint at ANI reopened against the wishes of the OP? Anythingyouwant (talk) 18:01, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I do not mind at all to closing this ANI thread as "no consensus" or whatever and switching to WP:AE (right now or later). I simply think this should be done by an uninvolved administrator. My very best wishes (talk) 18:07, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Gloucester Valley Battle Monument

Hi there. Nice work on Gloucester Valley Battle Monument. Just a couple of observations; make of them what you will. 1) You've split up sentences that were sourced to Daniell, leaving a couple of statements that are now not sourced, specifically who built it and when it was unveiled, and 2) I'm not sure it's correct to split up the two regimental badges. As I read it, one plaque has the UN crest, one has both regimental badges, one has the English inscription, and the 4th has the Korean inscription. The way you've amended it, the article says (or so I read it) that there are 4 plaques, then lists 5 things that are on them. Have to confess though that I've not been there, so that's all just an assumption on my part. FactotEm (talk) 19:09, 16 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the message, I'll try to fix. Anythingyouwant (talk) 19:11, 16 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Anythingyouwant. I do not know if you noticed, but in this edit [6] you also reinserted yet another content challenged through reversion here [7]... My very best wishes (talk) 06:31, 26 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
My very best wishes, are you sure that the same sanctions apply there? I don't see the warning at the article's talk page that I see at Talk:Roy Moore. I have self-reverted in case you're correct, but I don't think you are. Anythingyouwant (talk) 06:41, 26 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I've checked more carefully. You seem to be correct, although I have no idea why the template is so huge at Talk:Roy Moore compared to the template at Talk:Roy Moore sexual abuse allegations. Anythingyouwant (talk) 06:49, 26 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
