Neutrality
[edit]Hi Jesanj. Thanks for your message. Let me explain the changes I made to the lead paragraph, so that even if you disagree, you'll hopefully understand what I was trying to accomplish. Let's say I'm someone who's never heard of the term "death panel" before, and someone mentions it on the radio, so I go to Wikipedia to look it up. What's the first thing I want to know? Who coined the phrase? Whether it's a big fat lie? No, what I want to know is "what is a death panel." That basic information was missing from the lead, and it's really essential to a reader's understanding.
Once we establish what Palin meant by the term, we can then analyze whether there's any truth to it. Well, the reliable sources tell us there's not any truth to it, so we can mention that, which the third paragraph does: "Although there was no such provision in the bill..."
A reasonable reader will conclude from that fact that what Palin said is false. We don't need to browbeat them or insult their intelligence by repeatedly adding the word "false" every time the claim is mentioned. Even if it is a fact that the death panels claim is BS (and it is), we need to be neutral in our presentation of that fact. Right now the body of the article is telling the reader that Palin is full of BS. Repeatedly. We don't need to treat our readers like children. Repeatedly using the words "lie", "false" and "myth" suggest that we're trying really hard to convince our readers that Palin is full of BS. But we don't need to. The facts will show that. Once we've presented our readers with the views of the reliable sources that are available to us, we can let them make up their own minds.
I hope this helps. 28bytes (talk) 19:51, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you for your message and helpful explanation. I am going to disagree with you on a few points but I appreciate your message. McCaughey/Palin meant that on page 425 there were death panels. But they were mythical. The term was defined in the context of a false political myth that arose in response to proposed legislation. So, when you say "what is a death panel", that's what it is. There was no death panel. It doesn't exist in the sense of this article. The only way we have an article is because of the notability of publications written about the BS this term encompassed. (Perhaps the article title should be Death panels myth or Death panels (political lie) to make this point more clear.) It seems we're making up definitions when we define it. (And giving the term too much credit.) Also, I could be off on a tangent here, but your whole argument seems like like you're saying, well, humans can react negatively towards evidence (confirmation bias/attitude polarization) so we should break the news easy. You know, give the term the benefit of the doubt in the lead. (But I have seen no papers or books on the subject do that.) If my interpretation of your approach is right, I understand the logic, it might change more minds, but I think we are here to reflect reliable sources and not to tiptoe around the flaws of human psychology. =) O, and I was just reflecting RS when I kept putting in lie, false and myth. I'm thinking that we don't need to waste time in setting up a false scenario whereby people can make up their own minds. RS have done the deciding for us. Jesanj (talk) 16:39, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Jesanj. I was about to resume work on the death panels article but I noticed you've started to undo the changes that Gatoclass and I have made. Given that, I think, at this point, it's best that I step away from the article. My advice would be for you to seek out an experienced editor who has worked on contentious political articles and see if they'd be willing to work with you on the death panels article to get it more acceptable from an NPOV perspective. I understand that you think it's fine the way it is, but given that several other editors at DYK have expressed concerns about it, I would hope you would listen to them and be willing to work with them rather that dismissing their views about the article. I'm withdrawing my participation from the article and its DYK discussion, but if a new-and-improved version of the article gets approved for the main page, I'll be sure to read it. 28bytes (talk) 14:21, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
DYK for Death panels (political term)
[edit]On 5 December 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Death panels (political term), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the term "death panels," which Sarah Palin (pictured) coined on her Facebook page, was named "Lie of the Year" by PolitiFact.com and the "Most Outrageous" word of 2009 by the American Dialect Society? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Newt and death panels
[edit]I previously took out wording about Gingrich "admitting" something because I don't see where he really admits anything.[1] He says it is technically true that rationing is not in the bill. I think it is just a rhetorical device to lead into his argument that the legislation is "all but certain" to result in rationing. So I added the word technically, but it's okay with me if you remove it, because I don't think whether the word technically should be used is a major issue here.
The real question here, I think, is whether Gingrich's op ed should be used as a source at all? It seems to say very little about the term death panels, and it contains many logical leaps. I started to look for another source of quotes from Gingrich see if he put it a bit better on another occasion, and this is the next thing that came up. [2]. It seems to me that in the clip, and in the LAT op ed, he was more interested in looking for arguments that might catch stir anti-legislation sentiment than in actually analyzing Palin's term or giving a direct view on it. That leads to the question of whether Gingrich should be mentioned in this article at all? Certainly he was a significant voice in the debate on the legislation, but what did he really say about "death panels"? For now, I am just adding the word "technically" because that is what he says in his op ed. Here is the diff. I will be looking for better sources on the Speaker's views on death panels. Regards -KeptSouth (talk) 06:08, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
- I agree with you that taking out the word "admitting" is ideal, thanks. I understand your focus on the term, but I would still say, yes, Gingrich's op-ed belongs. The section it is under is Reactions, and it appears to reflect his reaction to the term. If the U.S. had a political party that consistently got 25% of the vote, and many of them said the term makes them think of purple elephants, and there were RS, I'd say it belongs because it is a notable reaction (even if it doesn't illuminate anything about the the term itself). Thanks for the message. Jesanj (talk) 12:48, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
- Ok, I think Gingrich's reaction should be in the article, because of his prominence, and because he usually has something interesting to say. The LAT op ed may not be the best example though, so I will look for another example from or about Gingrich's reaction, and will discuss it on the talk page. -Regards-KeptSouth (talk) 23:02, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
More death panels discussion
[edit]Jesanj - I responded a couple of days ago to your long note on my talk page about the Ivan Illich quote from 1975 that you believe is relevant to the Death panels (political term) article. Would you read over our discussion there and my comments on the article talk page, and respond on the article talk page if you still believe this quote is pertinent to the article? I think we have narrowed the issues down, and that it should now be clear I was not objecting to the inclusion of material by a contemporary author, as I believe you seemed to think. In the meantime, I have removed the passage as irrelevant, but I am certainly amenable to discussion and compromise if you can offer some specific reasons to keep this passage in the article, and in doing so, can make this an issue about which reasonable people can differ.
If we cannot reach an agreement, then I think we should proceed to dispute resolution and ask for a WP:Third opinion. If others chime in, then we will have to go to the noticeboard. I contemplate removing two other passages are apparently snippets of academics sniping at each other, but I will post a separate discussion of those on the talk page before I remove them. Please consider this as a civil discussion of the issues only. I appreciate your civil tone, and I anticipate keeping all discussion between us at that same level. Hope you have a nice holiday. -Regards-KeptSouth (talk) 10:17, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks, you too. =) Jesanj (talk) 14:31, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
Other quotes
[edit]I did remove the other quotes and left a discussion on the talk page under "Removing vague internally referential quotes from academics" that you may want to check, and discuss if you want. I will check the talk page daily throughout the week, and I am more than willing to discuss this or to compromise as I indicated in my note above.-Regards-KeptSouth (talk) 11:31, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
Removing comments on article talk page
[edit]As you know, I moved around one out of sequence comment and changed a few indent levels while carefully indicating the WP provisions I was relying on. Why? Because generally, we are not supposed to change anything on an article talk page - the minor edits I did were an exception to the rule. Please see WP:Talk page guidelines#Editing comments. Accordingly, I have restored the text you recently removed from the article talk page. -Best regaaards-KeptSouth (talk) 07:50, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

- I wanted to congratulate you for how you're handling issues with this article - when I first came across it, it was in sad shape NPOV-wise...but every time I go back to look, it seems to have gotten just a little bit better. I try to be careful about editing topics like this (when I have a personal point of view on the issue) but I now have high hopes that this will eventually be a quality article with the type of content you can't find anywhere but Wikipedia.

POV pushing again
[edit]I see you have again been pushing back into the article texts which not very long ago you agreed to remove. It is totally POV to insert allegations that are unbalanced. For example the claim that NICE is a "rationing body". It is a body responsible for informing the medical profession of clinical best practice, reviewing new technologies and pressing for their introduction where appropriate (and which occasionally sets "coverage rules"). This latter role, which is a very small part of NICE's overall responsibility is exactly what private insurance companies do in America. If you are going to insert misleading claims into WP (even if they have come from British sources) then that has to be balanced. It would be better all around if the article just focussed on the main claim that Palin made in relation to "Death Panels", and that was that she claimed that her elderly parents and her disabled son might end up in front of a panel established by Obama where they would have to plead for their lives based on their worth to society. All this other stuff about NICE and IPAB is pure fluff and distraction. As I think you are perfectly aware. Hauskalainen (talk) 19:30, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- I understand your concern. But we are asked to stay on topic. Thus, a necessary evil appears to be that one article may not treat a related topic as neutrally as the main article should (in this case, the NICE article). I don't think one should be suprised if this necessary evil occured on the main article for a political term. Nor would I consider it POV pushing, just proper editing. Jesanj (talk) 19:44, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- I figured we could put in "one function" to ease your mind. Jesanj (talk) 19:58, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- You reverted 13 carefully explained edits of mine claiming them to be "vandalism". I am going to reinstate my edit version. At least you must justífy each reversion. Then we can discuss what is to be done if we have a difference of opinion. IMHO you are the one who is engaging in vandalism by unwarrranted support for the inclusion of WP:FRINGE theories and by the placement of texts that you find to be inconsistent with a view you are trying to portray. This article ought to be very straightforward. The IPAB was created to set Medicare reimbursement rates under a rule in which the changes would become effective unless congress overruled them. This replaces the old system where IMAC would recommend changes to congress but congress often failed to act on the advice. Stating the merits for one arrangement over the other should take no more than a couple of sentences with references to web sites that make the arguments. Wikipedia should not be publishing the arguments of each side because that would be using Wikipedia as another talking shop and that IS NOT ITS PURPOSE.Hauskalainen (talk) 10:43, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry allegation
[edit]You may wish to be aware that an allegation of sockpuppetry has been made by another editor about Angel's flight at AN/I and I have repeated there my allegation that there is sockpuppetry going on at the articles that Angel's flight and certain other editors including you have been editing in a way that strongly suggests you are connected persons. The main allegation though is about Angel's flight. I know that you have welcomed a checkuser against your ID so you will not be concerned if this happens as a result of my additional comments at AN/I. I see that again your recent edit here [here] is identical to Angelä's flight edit here. As I say WP is not a place to promote some really whacky ideas, even if they have been published by reliable sources. There are limits.Hauskalainen (talk) 15:20, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- People agreeing with each other is not enough to prove sockpuppetry. If people never agreed we would never be able to reach consensus and nothing would get done. Intermittentgardener (talk) 20:57, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- Hauskalainen is repeating his sockpuppetry allegations here in the context of a 3RR report that I made against him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring#User:hauskalainen_reported_by_User:intermittentgardener_.28Result:_.29Intermittentgardener (talk) 20:48, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

- Yeah. I will. Thanks for the note. If it doesn't work you can politely explain (and provide diffs) that the user keeps accusing you of being a sock puppet and the subject of the article (who appears to have also posted). You could do this at Wikipedia:Wikiquette_assistance or probably Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents is best. The editor shouldn't be accusing you of sockpuppetry. I mean, it's a step in the right direction that they said they might apologize if they were proven wrong! Sad, hunh? But they shouldn't be putting their neck out. There is an open case. It will be dealt with. It's clearly inapproprate. Be polite. Keep it simple if you post. And mention the how they said they might apologize if proven wrong so you are fair. Maybe just ask others/an administrator to admonish the user. But I'm going to post a diff of this on their talk page and tell them I think they shouldn't be putting their neck out like that. Maybe it will be unnecessary to go elsewhere. Jesanj (talk) 19:32, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Reply to your request of 14:39, 14 August 2011
[edit]In your edit to my talk page on 14:39, 14 August 2011 14:39, 14 August 2011 [5] you expressed a willingness to provide a third opinion on the dispute. The following is a brief summary.
Adrian has edited large numbers of articles related to Transylvania to remove Hungarian elements from them this seems unnecessary [6]. His edits have been disputed on three articles:
- Sighișoara - on 12 August Adrian merely wanted to delete the Hungarian name for the city from the infobox, but his demands have expanded to wanting to delete the German language name as well.
- Sibiu - on 12 August Adrian merely wanted to delete the Hungarian name for the city from the infobox, but his demands have expanded to wanting to delete the German language name as well. He had earlier said [7] "it is considered a center/capital for the German minority in Romania, and as such it should have German name present in the infobox even if there isn`t a single German man living in that city"
- Transylvanian Saxons - the dispute is about whether Adrian should delete the Hungarian names from a list of seven Medieval fortified towns populated by the Saxons of Transylvania (the Siebenburgen). Adrian is currently content to allow the German language names to stand.
Transylvania was annexed by Romania in 1918, before that it was part of Hungary. Part of Transylvania was reoccupied by Hungary in 1940-44, so this is an area of national sensitivities. Before 1918, the name used by English people for these places was often the German name or the Hungarian name, which makes the German and Hungarian names are quite useful to English Wikipedia readers.
It is probably worth knowing that the Romanian Tourist Office website lists both the Romanian and German names for the Siebenburgen. Bearing in mind the political background, it is understandable that the Romanian Government does not display the Hungarian language names.
The main places for discussion appear to be:
- Talk:Transylvanian Saxons#Should the article contain the Hungarian names of medieval Transylvanian towns
- User talk:Iadrian yu#Hungarian names in Transylvania
- User talk:Toddy1#Hungarian_names in Transylvania
Reference has been made to two old discussions:
- A March 2010 Administrators' noticeboard discussion on Hungarian names of Romanian places, which concluded that "the correct method is that the article is housed at the Romanian placename, with the Hungarian placename in the infobox and lede.... unless the English language name is better known". There is a comment by the person who did the summary, which seemed to set aside the 2007 decision mentioned below.
- A 2007 move discussion for a place called Odorheiu Secuiesc, which it is claimed to be the source of a "rule" that in places with 20% less population Hungarian language names should not be present in the infobox of the article.
--Toddy1 (talk) 17:52, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
- I normally keep my nose out of Romanian/Hungarian articles. I just happened to have the one on Transylvanian Saxons on my watch list. The reason I was concerned by the edits, was because of the ethnic/linguistic element. This rang alarm bells in my head. I have been involved in defending articles on Central and Eastern Ukraine from nationalist extremists (usually from USA/Canada) who wish to delete the Russian-language name or the English name originally based on the Russian-language name.--Toddy1 (talk) 18:24, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

Requesting Deletion
[edit]I posted a request for deletion on the AFD page. I hadn't noticed your vote until afterwards, yet understand how editors came to this conclusion. Your efforts have certainly been time consuming. Best in your editing as your topics tend to be quite diverse and complex. Fantastic! Love, MPD MDELUNANY (talk) 06:52, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. The Hispanic Business coverage definitely changes my calculation though. Thanks for providing it. It must be an odd experience to see people rationalizing whether or not you're "important enough" here. Thanks again. Jesanj (talk) 16:50, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

An (isolated) apology re: Deluna page
[edit]I finally actually clicked on the Facebook link on her page and realized that it went to her business ID there, and not her personal. I think a previous one had linked to her personal page, and that is what I thought I was deleting. So apologies! You were right! I still think the page should go however - surprising, I know.Tao2911 (talk) 21:02, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

Midei
[edit]30 stents inserted in eight patients in one day. Multiple Stents commonly used. 11,000 $ per procedure, not per stent. Midei was paid salary, not dependent on fee for service — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ssessions111 (talk • contribs) 00:18, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the info. I wonder what payers were billed that day. With or without FFS, "The board noted that he was hired as an employee by the hospital 'at triple his previous salary' and that 'he was employed under circumstances in which any employee would feel at least some pressure to produce a high volume of stents.'"[8] Jesanj (talk) 02:44, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
Nomination of Mark Midei for deletion
[edit]A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Mark Midei 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/Mark Midei 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 good 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 template from the top of the article. FloNight♥♥♥♥ 21:19, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

I re-edited some of your changes. See the talk page for detailed rationale, but the main thing is that I don't want this to become the same perennial debate on "paid editing" or "COI", this is a very specific thing, people who are paid for the specific purpose of editing Wikipedia for promotional or advocacy reasons, not someone who merely edits with a COI. Gigs (talk) 03:30, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Sock puppet
[edit]I have been accused, found guilty, accused and found guilty again. However- I am a former assistant to a subject matter that has since been deleted. My edits were viewed as a conflict of interest which eventually got her involved and rightfully so, cost me my job. I am sorry to all editors I troubled- Especially you. Beth ElizabethCB123 (talk) 04:51, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
Please don't remove important information, even if by mistake
[edit]After going through and correcting the name (including new name) of Penn Med, and then adding citations, you went and most of the changes without noting why. You reverted the page back to the former name of the school. My guess is that you were editing at the same time and didn't notice, but you had reverted some others' changes as well. Please be careful of this.
On another note, thanks for cleaning the page up. I plan to add a history soon and would appreciate if you decide to go through it afterward. Hazmat2 (talk) 19:40, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the move. I don't know why the long name is necessary to put in the first sentence, however. Lets discuss it at the talk page of Perelman School of Medicine. Thanks. Jesanj (talk) 20:51, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Good idea. Having it in the name section is good enough, now that it's moved closer to the top of the article under history. I just felt the old name is still strongly associated with the school and of course will be for awhile so it needs to be there somewhere. And of course the official (long version) name should be included somewhere just for the sake of being thorough. Hazmat2 (talk) 20:55, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
Becker's Hospital Review and deleting awards
[edit]Hello Jesanj. I understand your concern with the need to have credible sources in Wiki articles. It seems that you do not consider Becker's Hospital Review awards to be up to your standards. You cited that your reasoning for this as not being able to find relevant articles on Google Scholar, as well as a cross comparison with U.S. News and World Report.
Although Becker's Hospital Review is not on the same level as U.S. News and World Report, it is not trying to be. Here is a list of some of the hospitals throughout the past year that have been recognized, and recognize Becker's by reposting, a variety of lists as credible awards. Brigham and Women's Hospital, one of the hospitals that you deleted our award recognition from, is included in the group that reposts its recognition. Is this adequate for Wikipedia approval?

- It is probably best to discuss this at Wikipedia:NPOVN#Are_Becker.27s_Hospital_Review_lists_worth_including_at_hospital_pages.2C_and_if_so.2C_how_much_weight_is_due.3F. However, I am not arguing it is a blanket unreliable source (or citing Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources). I'm making an argument about significance and weight. Are you Tgoldst5 or 24.13.228.80? Jesanj (talk) 07:15, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, to more specifically answer this question I would say no. Those sources are self-published and unduly self-serving. By contrast, Wikipedia articles are to be "based on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy". Jesanj (talk) 19:08, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
Hello Jesanji. To answer your first question, no I am neither of those editors. Secondly, if it is a matter of significance and weight, who is the person that would make the final decision on the matter? If it is decided that the awards are not significant for wikipedia then so be it, but it would be nice to have an additional user confirm the decision.
Thanks, BHC123 (talk) 20:26, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- OK thanks, because if you were either of those editors it wouldn't be good. Also, do you know them? That can raise issues too. But to answer your question, decisions here are made by consensus. I started the discussion thread at WP:NPOVN to generate a more robust consensus. Jesanj (talk) 20:50, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
We still have no consensus on the question you posed for the neutral perspective forum. How do we get this resolved? BHC123 (talk) 02:18, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
- Forgive me, but I'm a tad confused. I started the thread and tried to direct you there by saying "It is probably best to discuss this" there but now it seems you're dissatisfied that no one commented. I'm leaning towards interpreting the silence as consensus. What kind of edits do you want to make here? Jesanj (talk) 02:32, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Windsor Talk Page
[edit]A previous discussion resulted in an administrator suggestion that Miszabot archive at 30-45 days of inactivity. Why did you change it to 180 days? SGMD1 Talk/Contribs 18:28, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
- Because I was thinking about making some edits to the page and I didn't think all that archiving was necessary. I wanted to see what people had recently said on the talk page to guide my potential research. Jesanj (talk) 18:38, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
- Since the 30-45 day inactivity time-frame was based on discussion, changing that timeframe should probably have some discussion first and not be done unilaterally. There's a big "archive" button at the top of the talk page to see previous discussions. SGMD1 Talk/Contribs 18:54, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
- Considering the 30 days value was merely a suggestion that also contained the phrase "Even the most active, crazy talk pages rarely have archive times shorter than 20-30 days", and another user said "There's good reason to leave it and no good reason to archive it", I don't agree. I think it might be best for you to revert your recent edit.[11] Jesanj (talk) 18:59, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Integrative medicine
[edit]Whatever you felt, i do not think it was fair to wholesale delete what i wrote. I believe i had very valid points. And if information from a real live doctor was insufficient, and if all you want to go by are biased published articles on a NEW and YOUNG subject, then there is little more I can to to help things.

Integrative Medicine
[edit]Some of the best doctors do not publish to the New England Journal of Medicine. NEJM is a bastion of conservative conventional medicine, and any real information on integrative medicine is not to be found there. I am sorry, but I think I am done contributing to wiki. I have not found it a good use of my time. If you really want to know more about integrative medicine, check out www.acam.org and/or www.sufairchild.com and/or even better yet: http://www.acamnet.org/site/c.ltJWJ4MPIwE/b.5457445/k.CCC8/What_is_Integrative_Medicine.htm Just doing a cut and paste from ACAM's website definition will be lots better than the current wiki page. I am sorry, but the current page is the most anti-Integrative page I have ever read, which is why I felt the need to do something about it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zylla1 (talk • contribs) 05:44, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
A tag has been placed on Michael Chernew requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you can assert the importance of the subject, . Clicking that button 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 article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

Thanks
[edit]Thanks for your supportive comments. Indifference is, perhaps, the best medicine in general, but sometimes I get the feeling that a particular article at a particular time is so squarely in the public eye, and has invited so much attention from involved/interested parties wishing to edit the article, that the world needs to be protected from Wikipedia, if only in a limited way and for a limited time. Thus I find it difficult to turn a blind eye when my personal perception is that an article with a very high profile has become an entrenched soapboxing ground.

- I did tag it as OR [13], until you UNTAGGED it. I tagged it OR and gave it a decent amount of time to be fixed. It wasn't, so I deleted it per WP:OR. 98.247.55.10 (talk) 20:47, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
Doesn't exactly match the text in the article, but it's a start. Not sure if that's enough to warrant inclusion here, but if you can work that without WP:SYNthesis, I can go with it. 98.247.55.10 (talk) 21:01, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Would you like to review one of my GANs if I review your Death panel article? Binksternet (talk) 01:49, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- I can; however, as it will be my first time, I may be a bit shoddy, pesky and/or clumsy. Are you OK with that? Jesanj (talk) 02:26, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, I'm okay with that. ^_^
- Binksternet (talk) 05:39, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. I feel like I should say one more thing. As you've probably seen on the talk page, I'll probably be pretty pesky insisting that the death panel article is currently neutral. I mean, I'll make arguments, but I appear to have chased away one potential copy-editor, who came to the page, by making them. Also perhaps you should take a look at my comments at WP:NPOVN.[15] Jesanj (talk) 06:18, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- Ah, it looks like Amadscientist picked up the GAN for review. I will jump in and help tweak the article as needed. Binksternet (talk) 17:44, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- Well, I do now owe another a GAR. Is there one you had in mind? Maybe if Amadscientist has one up we could do a triangle. Now I see he has Occupy Wall Street up. Hmmm... that may be more complicated than others. Jesanj (talk) 18:24, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- You don't owe me a review! It turns out that I am unable to review OWS because of my prior involvement, making significant edits to the article. Same with Jacksoncw who will not be able to complete the review for the same reason. Binksternet (talk) 18:41, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

[edit]OK ... I fixed everything. The rationale had already been uploaded with the original image, so that wasn't too much of a problem.
But, I converted the image to a transparent .PNG and reduced it to the 300px limit (and in the process marked your original for deletion). Check it out in the article now. Daniel Case (talk) 01:59, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
Interview
[edit]Hi, I am a Wikipedian and researcher from Carnegie Mellon University, working with Professors Robert E. Kraut and Aniket Kittur. We’ve published many scholarly papers on Wikipedia and are partnering with the Wikimedia Foundation on several new projects.
I have been analyzing collaboration in Wikipedia, especially Collaborations of the Week/Month. My analysis of seven years of archival Wikipedia data shows that Collaborations of the Week/Month substantially increase the amount and nature of project members’ contributions, with long lasting effects. We would like to talk to Wikipedians to better understand the processes that that produce this behavior change.
We’ve identified you as a particularly good candidate to speak with because of your involvement with the WikiProject Medicine' Collaborations, which is one of those we’ve been investigating. It would really help us if you would be willing to have a short talk with us, less than 30 minutes of your time. We can talk via skype or instant messenger or other means if you’d prefer. Do you have time at any point during this week to chat? If so, please send an email to haiyiz@cs.cmu.edu or drop a line on my talk page.
Thanks! (This my personal website)Haiyizhu (talk) 02:53, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

- So you stand by your revert[16] despite criticism from me and at BLP? Jesanj (talk) 06:19, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
- Ok, last comment on this: the "hatred of Christian moral teaching" phrase is uncertain in origin. It could, in fact, be exactly what he said, or it could be editorialising. Because of the ambiguity, I gave ground on that point. Other than that, I neither know nor care what point you seem obsessed with making. Leave me out of your peregrinations around WP please. I don't have the time. Thanks. Jabbsworth 09:51, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

individual mandate
[edit]- Indented line
Are you taking out my addition to the Individual Mandate page? I do not understand the reason if you are doing so. What is presented there is incorrect. There is a third individual mandate, and it is simply a matter of understanding plain English. The way individual mandate is defined in the article, it is clear that "An act for the relief of sick and disabled seamen”, signed into law by President John Adams in 1798is an individual mandate. Why should this point not be stated in the Individual Mandate page? The quote from the act just makes things clear that the act has an individual mandate. If you did not take it out, I think the my addition should be reinserted to make things correct and not slanted. (cdftras)Cdfrtas (talk) 20:10, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

H-index
[edit]As calculated by this tool, Peter Proctor's h-index is 49, which is very high. Looking over some previous AfD discussions, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/William A. Tiller (2nd nomination) was an obvious keep because the subject had an h-index of about 24. In Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bernard Lewinsky and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ping Li the subjects had h-indexes of 15 and 17 respectively, and both results were no consensus. In Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oscar Alzate, Ph.D. the result was delete, with the h-index being 11. StAnselm (talk) 21:35, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can 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 a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Bgwhite (talk) 17:45, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Please comment on an RfC about Living members of deposed royal families and the titles attributed to them on WP
[edit]Hello - I have opened an RfC about suggested guidelines in the Manual of Style for articles about living members of families whose ancestors were deposed as monarchs of various countries and the titles and "styles" attributed to these living people, at the moment often in a misleading and inaccurate way in my opinion. Please join in the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Biographies "Use of royal "Titles and styles" and honorific prefixes in articles and templates referring to pretenders to abolished royal titles and their families"[19]Regards,Smeat75 (talk) 05:40, 27 November 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization
[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 National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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. – S.

RfC United States same-sex marriage map

Please join the discussion on Talk:Glengarry Glen Ross (film)
[edit]Hello! I am soliciting comments for an RfC that is currently open on the "Glengarry Glen Ross (film)" page. There is disagreement about where the film was set (New York vs. Chicago).
One of the issues is whether it is original research to cite to elements in the film itself (including props, dialogue, and a statement in the end credits that it was "filmed on location in New York City") to establish setting.
Response so far in the RfC has been mixed. Comments welcome! Xanthis (talk) 13:29, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

[edit]Speedy deletion nomination of Darrell Kirch
[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 Darrell Kirch requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from https://www.aamc.org/about/leadership. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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 removed 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.
