Re: 3D Mol Request

Sorry it's been forever since I've logged in. Sorry sorry. OK, so you want some Bromo-DragonFLY?

I've been real busy. It's not hard for me to model one, the hard part is uploading a pic to wikipedia. Ironic isnt it? If you think it needs a better 3d pick than the current one I can come up with one. I'm busy this week, so it may have to wait till the weekend. What say you?

License tagging for Image:Vomitingtoiletman.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Vomitingtoiletman.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 07:11, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Re LSD Molecule

Hey Rick, thanks for the email. Actually, I can make rotating images for that stuff. LOL, it's kinda of a process but don't let that scare you. Basically I use two programs. The first is Accelery's chemical software (free) to input SMILE formulas, then I save that file to a .png so Qutemol (the second program, also free) can render it with it's rendering functions (such as a rotating molecule).

Hope this helps, let me know if I can get you started. Im one person working on chemistry articles constantly. If we get more people on board we can really clean house and make those articles shine!

Thanks for such a quick edit to mdma, i copy/pasted the image code and discovered it - what must have been a moment after you.

MDMA precursors in saffron

Hi there, I'm just wondering if you have any other sources for a precursor of MDMA being in saffron (safrole I presume?).

Fair use rationale for Image:Octooo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Octooo.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

DMT structure

Hi Miserlou,

thanks for your contribution Image:Dmt3dd.png. Omitting the hydrogens for such a small molecule does not really make sense and might be confusing. The convention is to add the hydrogen to at least the heteroatoms (the indole-NH). You might also want to use aromatic bonds instead of alternating single / double bonds. Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject Chemistry/Structure drawing for uploading such images to the Commons. Cacycle 13:18, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The same goes for the Image:Lsdballstick.png which is also broken (The one H atom is transparent instead of white). Cacycle 14:15, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Ybor.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Ybor.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Notability of Copowi

A tag has been placed on Copowi, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert 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 think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, 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, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. WebHamster 23:50, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. The image was taken from the academic paper [3] and modified slightly, though is still copyright of the original author. Freeware programs exist that allow you to create such images easily.

Copyright violation in Pennsylvania System of School Assessment

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Pennsylvania System of School Assessment, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Pennsylvania System of School Assessment is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Pennsylvania System of School Assessment, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Unspecified source for Image:Abu-ghraib-map.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Abu-ghraib-map.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:12, 19 February 2008 (UTC).

Speedy deletion of Image:Teddyboy1959.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:Teddyboy1959.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

[4], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
add the relevant copyright tag.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:Teddyboy1959.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, 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, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion of OpenBiomind

A tag has been placed on OpenBiomind requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. 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 as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 19:55, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -Zeus- 03:22, 6 February 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by -Zeus- (talk • contribs)

Office Tmbox

Hey, Miserlou. Just so you know, I've undone your edit where you added the OFFICE tmbox to the TI keys article; while I do appreciate it and understand why you did so, it doesn't seem necessary to me on the article itself. Anyone editing the article will see the edit notice informing them of the same thing, and anyone reading the article doesn't need to know why we don't have the keys; if they are curious, they'd go to the talk page or try to edit the page themselves anyway. Generally OFFICE actions aren't announced on the article itself unless the entire article has to be locked down for some reason. I'm open to discussion on this, but I just wanted to let you know.

File permission problem with File:Daviddeutschted.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Daviddeutschted.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Magog the Ogre (talk) 06:14, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Open Source Routing Machine

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Open Source Routing Machine, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://project-osrm.org.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Proposed deletion of Open Source Routing Machine

The article Open Source Routing Machine has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

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.

AfD and assume good faith

I think you'd find AfD a lot more accommodating if you answered objections on the merits, rather than ranting at the nominator. You're not winning any friends with this and frankly its probably going to raise some eyebrows. I know it's frustrating when an article's nominated, but your first draft apparently took a lot of the webpage verbatim, enough that the bot caught it. Also, there are lots of open source projects that are deleted every week because they don't have widespread notability. Nominations have nothing to do with you: it's not personal. So don't respond to the nominator as though it were. Shadowjams (talk) 21:34, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Personal attack on your user page

I see that you have already been warned about your ad hominem arguments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Open Source Routing Machine, so I won't beat that dead horse any further. However, this statement is a violation of the user page policy and I ask that you remove it.

You are generally allowed a great deal of leeway regarding your user space; however, it is not a personal webspace and it may not be used for personal attacks. I see that you have been warned several times in the past regarding personal attacks and/or the civility policy; I suggest you heed them.

Better source request for File:Shahmac.jpg

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

File:Shahmac.jpg

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

Speedy deletion nomination of Sovtek

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Sovtek, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . 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 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. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. I B Wright (talk) 12:48, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Aspera on Cloud Draft Publication

Hello Miserlou, hope all is well. My username is Ddvandestreek and I found your profile overviewing users that have made edits to Fast and Secure Protocol. I drafted an article titled Aspera on Cloud. Wikipedia is not publishing the article on grounds of G11, or appearing too promotional. I have extensively rewritten the article and still have not been approved to publish. I contacted the user who deleted the post and he recommended having a more established editor publish the article. If I were to send you the article, would you be able to do so? Thank you for your time.

LibrePCB moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, LibrePCB, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Bad Luck 13 Riot Extravaganza

Hello Miserlou,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Bad Luck 13 Riot Extravaganza for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lisa Littman until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

Edit summaries

Re Andrew Yang 2020 presidential campaign, it is useful to append "per talk", or something similar, when fulfilling a discussion's consensus, especially when it has been dormant for some time. This helps keep editors that either participated or are unaware of the discussion up-to-speed. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 01:29, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What I was thinking

Don't shout. And keep yourself calm. This isn't a personal attack on you just because you're so heavily invested in ROGD. I didn't blank the page; I redirected it to the appropriate place, PLOS One #Rapid onset gender dysphoria controversy per the consensus that I perceived.

Proposed deletion of XQEMU

The article XQEMU has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:N: non-notable emulator, no references to reliable, third-party published sources.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Civility and goals

Really? I see a first mention of this topic was in 2006 above. Have you never seen the problem that Wikipedia has with self-promotion? Hey, somebody is really proud of their company and wants to let everybody know. It is not necessarily deletionism when hyper-vigilance is need around here.

I'm having a hard time finding any independent references to the project. It is a very small community that is interested in this? Many mentions are due to developers past and present: JayFoxRox, Borgerson, espes... These are not independent.

I found this but it's not a review and rather bare.

I found a mention of XQEMU but again not a review and not dated?

I found this which intimates that the project is of longstanding (2014) but little else. Found other references to 2017, 2015, but what is the history, really? So-and-so rewrote such-and-such which derived from some-other which was rooted in QEMU via other steps. Sheesh!

A mention from 2015 is not complimentary.

A mention earlier this year is complimentary but not detailed enough.

Kerfluffle around Github repositories [5]. [6] and others.

Twitter shows rather low activity.

And just a warning, there's a number of bogus apparently boobytrapped links like [7]. Turn on NoScript and friends before looking at the interesting Javascript redirecting. Ick, they get around. Actually, best avoid entirely. Final 10+ links from google on one search were _all_ bad guys in action. But again, that's another reason to find all the best/valid/correct references and add to article.

Anyway, the goal here at Wikipedia is not just text, but verified text. There's entirely too much pressure from the unscrupulous to "put one over" on Wikipedia. You must differentiate this article from those kinds of articles. Shenme (talk) 19:00, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the situation: You don't know what you don't know. You don't know why this is notable, because you are ignorant of the subject material. So - why do you feel the need to delete the work of other people? How about a little good faith. I'm an expert in the field and I have a decade of positive, novel contributions to Wikipedia. I wrote a good article. I'm still working on it. Make positive contributions or leave it alone. I have no personal interest in promoting the project, which is free in the first place. I firmly believe that your type of attitude is the reason that Wikipedia is dying: people with domain expertise who make positive contributions are constantly bothered by non-contributing, policy-obsessed parasites. Miserlou (talk) 19:11, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Goodness! Did you read my comments above? Consider that it took me over a half hour, maybe 45 minutes, to put together a reflection on how difficult it will be to find corroborating references for the article. Are you making *any* differentiation between people here? Why would you attack someone who is trying to help you? Is that a involuntary trait for you? Shenme (talk) 05:31, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draftspace

Hello, Miserlou,

I'm sorry that you feel unheard and that your contributions are not valued. I think one solution is that you write articles in Draft space rather than adding the articles directly to Main space of the encyclopedia. Although drafts can be deleted they are usually only done so if egregious self-promotion or if the author isn't actively working to improve the article (six months after the last edit). I think the bar is higher for deletion in draftspace and this is a very comfortable space to work on an article over the time it takes to acquire reliable sources. Just a thought that might eliminate some anxiety and pressure. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 03:03, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest Accusation

When was I previously dinged for having a COI? Do you actually read or research anything in any depth? And to just throw a serious accusation out there that someone has a COI. When my job specifically requires that I don't have a conflict of interest on these exact subjects. And I said exactly that in my last edit summary. Please show me when I was previously dinged for having a COI.

Here's something to think about. You say don't make negative edits if you aren't an expert on a topic. You have to cut granite to make a sculpture. It's equally important to not revert deletions when there is a clear explanation as to why the content was deleted. That page is garbage. It's essentially the creation of user David Gerard who has written books about crypto and has been quoted in major news publications. Everything he writes or says about crypto is radically negative. Hence, the massive anti-crypto bias polluting the Tether page. Go through the edit history. Look through the talk page. User after user makes the same sorts of edits trying to cut back on the clear bias in the article. On the talk page many users make comments about how biased the article is. That it doesn't meet Wikipedia's standards. That it's the worst article they've seen on Wikipedia. But there are a handful of dedicated page owners who use their fake wiki authority to keep the page in abominable condition.

You realize you're insisting on keeping a sentence that starts "Tether Limited and the Tether cryptocurrency are controversial because". Written in Wikipedia's voice. No attribution... Terrible. - DaxMoon (talk) 06:59, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Before you make accusations you should be sure there's a basis for your assertion. If the target of the accusation believes you to be in error or requests a clarification you should do so.

To make an accusation, ignore requests for a clarification, and then lash out is the unconscious wail of a spineless coward. DaxMoon (talk) 08:43, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Grusch article title

Even the title is garbage, "UFO claims" don't go on Wikipedia

I think you’ll find a lot of support for this position. If you could come up in some good candidates for a title, you would probably be successful. Please start a discussion about a new title when you’ve got some potential candidates. Viriditas (talk) 21:49, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wanted to leave you a note saying that I appreciate your comments on the Grusch talk page; I think you and jps are somewhat talking past each other, and he does have a tendency to be rude, so that isn't helping things. But I did want to say that I hope you stick around. Your comments are quite good. Viriditas (talk) 09:38, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I almost forgot, I can somewhat explain the Reid and Bigelow thing if you want me to. Jps feels they are both biased, as you must have concluded by now, and have influenced the UFO to UAP designation, although I'm not certain that's the entire story. For the most part jps gets things correct, but he can be a bit too heavy handed and does not suffer fools gladly. While this can often work to his benefit, I think it is also a handicap, as it pushes people away who might otherwise agree with him. I think you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar, but frankly jps doesn't care, and that tends to hurt the discussion, IMO. Bigelow is convinced on the subject of ET visitation, but having listened to interviews with him, I'm not sure I really understand his position or motivation. I suppose he reminds me in some way of Elon Musk. In any case, I get the sense that jps wants to get rid of as much BS as he can and set the record straight, but sometimes that approach can appear like a wrecking ball or a bulldozer, when what is really needed is a gentle, careful, surgical approach. Viriditas (talk) 09:50, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, thanks for the reply. Yeah man, I don't know, it seems like this is a whole world of grifters and counter-grifters, both obsessives. I'm just some guy who stopped by because I wanted to figure out what this particular story is about. I think it's probably some internal control that spies use to filter out who's solid or not. Like if you tell somebody there's aliens in a hush-hush voice, and then they don't tell anybody, then you're probably solid to go do some assassinations or whatever shady business they do. If they run to the news, then you can't trust them, so kick them out and make them look crazy. Who knows. Miserlou (talk) 10:00, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You know, that makes a lot of sense. I can understand that some people might not get it, but I do. I really do. Viriditas (talk) 10:04, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @miserlou, I've created an NPOV dispute section at the discussion page of the article you created. Please take a look if you have a moment. All the best, Emmentalist (talk) 21:11, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

You are in breach of 1R restrictions, Diff1 and Diff2. Kindly self revert. Selfstudier (talk) 16:50, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

October 2023

To enforce an arbitration decision, and for violating the 1RR restriction, you have been blocked from editing Wikipedia for a period of 72 hours from certain pages (2023 Israel–Hamas war). You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block or other sanctions.

If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard, I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page.

HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:30, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

Your draft article, Draft:LibrePCB

Hello, Miserlou. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "LibrePCB".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:52, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
