Hello, I noticed you have blocked my Wikidata, I have checked the reason for the blocked. I found that my wiki is being accessed from unknown person.

I changed the password but am unable to edit in Wikidata.

I need everything to back normal

Hello Jasper, I've been trying to edit on Wikidata and I realize my account got blocked by you on the basis of a multiple account. I've just a single account which is (Albakry028). Kindly see to it for rectification. Thanks.

Hey, Jasper. Re: the mbira page. I understand that you just reverted my single last edit which was HIGHLY uncited, however you undid EVERYTHING, I made things in separate edits on purpose so they could be reviewed. Please just undo the last one rather than every single edit. This Mbira page is terribly inaccurate, I did substantial clean up and reorganization. I implore you to look back and just remove the last single post, or dutifully explore each contribution and remove if need be, a blanket reset of all my work is not in the best interest of the page. 47.208.63.235 (talk) 04:54, 12 August 2019 (UTC) sorry, I wasn't logged in. Now I did. There is significant factual innacuracies all throughout that page that I corrected and resorted into more coherency. I appreciate you taking the time to reassess Seth.geddes (talk) 05:01, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Respectfully, I reverted the page to a previous edit that did not contain the admittedly essay like section. I went out on a limb with that edit and I hope to put something like it back into the article someday with proper citation. One of the largest issues of the page was a very oversimplification of calling all lamellaphones mbira, which is factually wrong, and culturally assualting to the Shona people. Mbira is a Shona word, from the Bantu language group. Though other lamellaphones exist throught Africa and have spread, the article made many 'uncited inaccurate statements lumping them all together, it included references to Griot of west africa, and the instruments by other names in the Congo. As the title of this page is "Mbira" we must ensure that it accurately reflects what mbira actually is in fact, a traditional Shona group of instruments. Anyhow, I pray that this finds you well, and the before simply reverting any more edits you actually look at the improvement I did to the page. I removed an obvious advertisement for Kalimba Magic, I reordered some sections so they were more coherent, I added more specificity to needed areas, etc... It is a much better article than it was. If there is any glaring needs for citation of anything I added, I request you add a citation needed tag and let me know so I can address it. This instrument is dear to me and I want it represented accurately and I literally spent many hours the last few days making multiple individual edits so an admin could thoroughly vet my contributions and judge them independently. Thanks in advance for your consideration. Seth.geddes (talk) 06:56, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jasper Deng

I'm an anthropology student doing an online research project on wikipedians and their motivations and ideals for writing and editing wikipedia pages. I was wondering if you would be interested in answering a few questions I have - sort of like a small online interview.

PD-NWS Violations Update #2 (Key To Read Third Section)

[edit]

I am providing members of the WikiProject of Weather along with users who frequently edit weather-related articles an new update (2nd update) to the discussions regarding the PD-NWS image copyright template.

On the Commons, an RFC discussion is taking place to figure out how to manage the template. No "formal" administrative-style rules have occurred, so nothing has changed. That is not a surprise as the RFC is still ongoing.

What is new?

  • The entire Template:PD-NWS has been placed inside a "License Review" template, which is viewable via the link aforementioned.
  • Most of the photographs which were uploaded to the Commons originally under the PD-NWS template (approximately 1,500) have been reviewed. Out of those ~1,500 images, only about 150 are requiring additional looks. Most images have been verified as free-to-use and switched to a respective, valid template.
  • As of this moment, approximately 50 photos have been nominated for deletion (results pending).
  • A handful of images have been deleted (either confirmed copyrighted or under the Commons precautionary principle).
  • One image has been kept following a deletion request under the PD-NWS template.

How to deal with new photos?

Given all of this, you might be wondering how the heck you use weather photos while creating articles? Well, here is what you can do!

What about third-party photos?

In the case of third-party photos...i.e. ones not taken by the National Weather Service themselves...there is an option which was discussed and confirmed to be valid from an English Wikipedia Administrator.

  • KEY: Third party images of tornadoes & weather-related content can potentially be uploaded via Wikipedia's Non-Free Content Guidelines!
  • Experiments/testing has been done already! In fact, I bet you couldn't tell the difference, but the tornado photograph used at the top of the 2011 Joplin tornado was already switched to a Non-Free File (NFF)! Check it out: File:Photograph of the 2011 Joplin tornado.jpeg! That photo's description can also be used as a template for future third-party tornado photographs uploaded to Wikipedia...with their respective information replaced.
  • NFFs can be uploaded to multiple articles as well!
  • The absolute key aspect of NFFs is that they relate to the article and are not decoration. For example with the Joplin tornado, the photograph: (1) shows the size of the tornado, (2) shows the "wall of darkness", which was described by witnesses, (3) shows a historic, non-repeatable event of the deadliest tornado in modern U.S. history. The exact reasoning does not have to be extremely specific as Wikipedia's NFF guidelines "is one of the most generous in the world" (words of Rlandmann (not pinged), the administrator reviewing all the PD-NWS template images).
  • Tornado photographs will almost certainly qualify under the NFF guidelines, especially for tornadoes with standalone articles or standalone sections.
  • NFFs cannot be used when a free-photograph is available, no matter the quality, unless the section is about that specific photograph. For example, the photograph used at the top of the 2013 Moore tornado article is confirmed to be free-to-use, therefore, no NFFs of that tornado can be uploaded on Wikipedia. However, the "Dead Man Walking" photograph could almost certainly be uploaded as an NFF to the 1997 Jarrell tornado article as that photograph is the topic of a section in the article.
  • NFFs currently on Wikipedia can and should be placed in this category: Category:Non-free pictures of tornadoes.

Update Closing

Hopefully all of that information kept you informed on the Commons copyright discussion process and how you can still create the best articles possible! If you have a question about something mentioned above, reply back and I will do my best to answer it! Also, ping me in the process to ensure I see it! Have a good day!

About the deletion nominations.

[edit]

I am fine with the articles getting nominated for deletion, just give me one week and I'll transfer all the articles to linguifex.com, thanks!

Found evidence for my edit on the battle of Britain class unrebuilt engines

[edit]

You have recently taken down my edits for the personal account I added onto Wikipedia, I have found evidence of the events occuring as this person recorded the events in a video format. Watch from 17:04 minutes in. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1ehZJSi9ID0

Here is another video of it stuck at Kirkby Stephens. Watch from 1:04 minutes in. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=G9QLX7QRzjg Aarondrankatartruckoftar (talk) 16:42, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Forum post: https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/tangmere-failure-on-cumbrian-mountain-express-today-21st-september.274340/

Official notes from company https://settlecarlislesteam.co.uk/2024/21st-september-2024-cumbrian-mountain-express

States that 'Tangmere failed in the Crosby Garrett Area. The train was eventually taken forward to Kirkby Stephen where Tangmere was removed. The Class 47 then returned the coaches to Carlisle where the train was terminated and passenger made their way hom on service trains. Tangmere was retrieved from Kirkby Stephen by a diesel the following day.' — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aarondrankatartruckoftar (talkcontribs) 17:37, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
