- The dictionary definition is to reduce drastically, but that is a moot point. The word "decimate" was not used in the article you provided as a source, and the article itself was not specific to the F-22. Jeff Song (talk) 18:21, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Editing in East Germany
[edit]Hi there, I thought to drop you a note just in case you're unfamiliar with the WP:BRD process. According to the process, when a user feels a need to change an article, he can edit the article to reflect the change he wants to make. If another editor disagrees the edit is an improvement, he'll revert to the previous version and discuss the issue, during which discussion the previous version of the article remains. After the editors reach consensus on changing the article, the change is made, not before. In this case, the note in the box has been in place for at least a month, making it the long-standing version from the perspective of the discussion we're having on the talkpage. You're suggesting to change the article, so the version that was up before you made your intial edit should remain until we agree. Since agreement seems to be very close, this may be a bit academic, but I thought to let you know. If you persist in "warring" the edit, you may even receive a formal warning or temporary block. Cheers, --Dailycare (talk) 19:56, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Mellanox Technologies
[edit]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.
A tag has been placed on Mellanox Technologies, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. MikeWazowski (talk) 17:15, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Meteksan Savunma
[edit]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.
A tag has been placed on Meteksan Savunma requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted.

Shady business
[edit]Calling other editors "shady character" is, as you say, a personal attack. But my irritation was real and well founded as you can see here. This is no excuse however and I will not repeat it.
Calling a living person "shady" in an article may contravene Wikipedia policy and I will be more careful in the future. In this particular case Elhanan Tannenbaum it did not seem to be an overstatement. He was a senior officer in the Israeli army and has admitted that he had contacts with Hezbollah and traveled secretly on a fake passport to Dubai, a country technically as war with Israel, with the purpose of buying large quantities of illegal drugs. This is not what you would expect from an ordinary Israeli officer/businessman.
You deleted not only my offensive term but also an important paragraph about his military background. I will restore my changes to the article but I will not call him "shady" again.

The article Cpplint has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Does not meet notability criteria. Fails WP:GNG due to lack of reliable sources.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 03:58, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Rabin interview
[edit]Hi! I decided to write here concerning my read of the 1968 Rabin interview in Le Monde. Out of curiosity, I dropped by in a library to read the original interview from microfilm. Here's what the text said (I jotted this down so it may not be word for word):
- Rabin: Je ne pense pas que Nasser voulait la guerre. Les deux divisions qu'il envoya dans le Sinaï, le 14 Mai, n'auraient pas suffi pour déclencher un offensive contre Israël, il le savait et nous le savions. (...) il bluffait (...) nous connaissions le strategéme puisqu'il l'avait dèja utilisé en 1960 (...) [en 1967] il à éprouvé le besoin de donner plus de crédibilité à son bluff. (par demander le retrait des forces onusiennes).
Concerning the seven divisions, there Rabin is answering in the context that Nasser didn't want war, and saying that he didn't believe Israel would initiate any hostilies without "soutien des puissances étrangères", i.e. Western support. Rabin surmises Nasser sent those divisions to the Sinaï as Israel might consider the Aqaba closure an act of war - i.e. he was sending them in case Israel nonetheless attacked. Nowhere in the entire text does Rabin as much as hint that Israel would have been expecting an invasion in June 1967. So I fully understand why all the sources we've seen use the interview the way they do, which as far as I can see is entirely correct. Cheers, --Dailycare (talk) 19:55, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
- That is a pretty idiosyncratic reading of the interview. Rabin is clearly stating that after Nasser closed the straits, he expected war. Your interpretation, and that of the sources you use, is selectivity quoting a part of the interview out of context, to convey a misleading idea, that the situation on the eve of war (June 4th) was remotely similar to that 3 weeks earleir. Jeff Song (talk) 23:09, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- What he says was that "judging by" the divisions moved to the Sinai, Nasser knew Israel would consider the closure a "casus belli". As I write above, nowhere in the text does Rabin as much as suggest that Nasser was about to invade Israel. To the contrary, he says he doesn't believe Nasser wanted the war. The interviewer even repeats this point and asks for further clarification, which Rabin gives. And that is also how the sources read the interview. Cheers, --Dailycare (talk) 14:53, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
Please keep talk page discussions in chrono order
[edit]Per Wikipedia:Talk_page#Technical_and_format_standards we are supposed to keep responses to postings in chronological order and not interrupt people's responses to posts with ones own responses reiterating what the person said, especially when someone already has responded to the original post and dealt with the issue. You did it repeatedly at Talk:Foreign Agents Registration Act and just trying to find something and follow the thread, I found it very difficult. A new user coming to the page would find it ever more frustrating. Just a heads up since you are a relatively new user. CarolMooreDC 22:01, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- You don't understand the instructions there. The chron order recommendation refers to adding new topics, whereas what I am doing is called threading the response, with indentation that indicates who I am corresponding to. That is covered in the 3rd bullet. Jeff Song (talk) 23:05, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- While it seems this used to be addressed on that guideline page - maybe somewhere else - generally you only insert something threadwise that is some extraneous point you want to slip in that others aren't likely to address. Not something that is directly related to what the last person - me - wrote. Of course, I just noticed your response came two minutes after mine, so it's possible somehow you missed mine entirely. In that case I should have just answered you below my relevant post, so I do take responsibility and have to be more careful myself. CarolMooreDC 23:44, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
- No, that's not the way threaded discussions work. Have a look at any randomly chosen thread that has more than 2 participants, and you'll see what I mean. Jeff Song (talk) 23:53, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

Just saying
[edit]While certain editors in the I-P arena are culpable of gross misconduct, from my experience, Sean Hoyland is one of the more reasonable and well-intentioned ones. Though your comments may not be misplaced, it is sensible to extend WP:AGF to such editors.

[edit]This account has been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet of NoCal100 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not. If this account is not a sock puppet, and you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Jeff Song (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I ask to be unblocked, and it is not clear to me what has happened here. I have been editing for about a year and a half now with no incident, I have 1600+ edits and created several new articles. I am not a sock puppet. Jeff Song (talk) 15:42, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
Decline reason:
T. Canens has emailed me an explanation of the behavioural evidence he used in making the decision to block here, and I have also made independent checks of the accounts' edits. It's very obvious that this is a NoCal100 sockpuppet account. Nick-D (talk) 11:54, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- Reviewing admin: If you are considering an unblock, please contact me by email first. T. Canens (talk) 18:15, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
- I'll review this block. I've just emailed T. Canens per the above. Nick-D (talk) 08:27, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
I don't see any indication that he is NoCal sock this editor have american IP before that it was claimed that some editor from China is NoCal User_talk:Two_for_the_show the only similarity between those two editors that they share the same POV.I find it troublesome that are editors are blocked without any real reason given --Shrike (talk) 19:27, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
Now that it was established he is a sock of NoCal.As he made some useful edits beyond I/P area its best for him to try and take the WP:OFFER.--Shrike (talk) 12:24, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
I don't think this user a sock
[edit]- No evidence was presented that he is sock at all.
- This user edits in beginning are similar to new user for example he posted in Wikipedia:New_contributors'_help_page/questions.
- The user has revealed his ip [1] the edit was suppressed only after I pointed to him that he can suppress edits I don't think sockpupperters that have many socks like NoCal reveal ip so easily.
- Maybe some check user can compare him to the last sock by Nocal User:Two_for_the_show--Shrike (talk) 17:41, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
- The main issue is that no evidence had been cited other than editors share a similar POV. Surely it it is necessary to supply reasonable grounds for a block to ensure that no abuse of privilege is taking place. As of yet, the decision has been unsatisfactorily explained, check user has not been employed, and the admin responsible requests email contact with other admins that will review this issue. I am surprised at the lack of transparency and hope that this will be rectified.
Best Wishes Ankh.Morpork 19:17, 9 April 2012 (UTC)- It's quite normal for admins to keep evidence used to detect prolific block evaders such as NoCal100 off-Wiki so that the person doesn't learn how they're being detected. This is valid even in cases of mistaken identity (note that I haven't started reviewing this block yet). Nick-D (talk) 08:48, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
- This is reasonable enough and T.Canens responded in similar fashion. Can you just ensure that the reasons provided are valid as this editor has not displayed classic sock symptoms and has been editing for a while.

I do know, however, that the blocking admin is very familiar with NoCal100, and I trust that he has made a good block. —DoRD (talk) 20:23, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
- How someone in this situation can prove that he is not a sock?Does it possible at all?--Shrike (talk) 05:17, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
