I rewrote the page's plot and also tried to cite my source, and will continue to try until it is cited properly. The page is rewritten so there are no copyright infringements.

Hi, re Battle of New Ross. The page was only duplicated for a short time while the original page was being turned into a disambiguation page. Cheers

I am fairly new to Wikipedia trying to start a new concept called a Carbon Footprint Consumer Index. There is no commercial interest. I only want to provide a definition. Is this not appropriate to Wikipedia?

I read your note. It states "organization." This is about a concept, not a product, service or organization. I invented the idea recently. I soon will publish an article on the concept. This is meant as concept that will build as more participates chime in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Beoleary (talkcontribs) 02:38, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Notice from Coren for Allama Ghulam Mustafa Qasmi page

edit

Well, That is true and for that matter I have added the source line too. It was really amazing for me that there was nothing about Allam Ghulam Mustafa Qasmi on wikipedia. He has been a great scholar in Sindh Pakistan. So, what I wanted was to add a quick reference to him and then sit down sometime and write another article, which will be more substantial of course, about him. Since I have added the source link, it should not be a problem any more as Salaam.co.uk references are used by other portals too i.e. http://www.theamericanmuslim.org/tam.php/features/articles/in_memorium_ahmad_deedat/

Nevertheless, this is a temporary reference and I am looking forward to write down a cool article with images about him. He is great asset of our culture and history and we need to have his reference on the web, especially wikipedia. Hope you will promote this positive effort.

Cassandra complex (psychology)

edit

I created the new Cassandra complex (psychology) page to record the psychological concept coined by Jungian Laurie Layton Schapira, from the volume The Cassandra Complex: Living With Disbelief: A Modern Perspective on Hysteria (Studies in Jungian Psychology by Jungian Analysts, Vol 36).


A BOT has for some reason conflated the Cassandra complex with the Cassandra phenomenon article which latter term was coined (I think) by a woman named Karen Rodman to refer to troubles allegedly experienced by partners of individuuals with Asperger's Syndrome. This latter WP page is a bit of a mess, with a synthesis of material found in popular film, psychology, mythology, and urban myth. The Cassandra phenomenon page also uses three completely different phrases 'Cassandra phenomenon', 'Cassandra Complex' and 'Cassandra syndrome' without clarifying any differences between these three varied wordings whatever. Therefore I have separated the psychological meaning in Cassandra complex (psychology) as an independent article.


I removed the BOT prompt from the article. Classicalnut 09:46, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Computer (08)

edit

Hello.

I'm sorry, but I've denied the request for task 8 of your bot. The complete reason can be found at the BRFA subpage, but the short of it is that there is little hope that consensus would form that this task was required, especially since other tools already exist to perform that function.

Keep up the good work! — Coren (talk) 02:40, 30 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I am kind of confused. If a tool is used for the task, it would add ridiculous amount of noise to RC unlike bot flagged edits which wouldn't. I could use the tool through the bot's account and not flood RC for example. Having something like 20 reverts per minute would annoy just about everybody. -- Cat chi? 02:47, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
You might want to read the discussion on the village pump, but when an admin rolls back edits, he can (manually) flag them as bot edits so they don't show up on RC. — Coren (talk) 02:50, 30 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
I have. Half of the concern is over how necessary it is and that admins can manually preform this. Of course this can be manually done like any bot edit but in the cases of a more dedicated attack that'd overwhelm an average admin or ten a bot would be useful. The idea is to have the access ready for the times it will be needed. Imagine a case where a vandal/spam isn't noticed for-say a week. Although very rarely, this does happen. In such cases deploying a bot could save time.
Any abuse as mentioned would be a permanent ban of the bot so I do not think that is a serious risk. I certainly am not that much of an idiot. Mass reverts always need to be based on solid consensus on obvious cases for the sake of sanity. Bot operators are responsible of every edit by the bot so I would have to deal with every mistake manually. No bot operator would wish to deal with hundereds of mistakes.
The bot can be made so that it reverts an edit on a certain time frame...
Also the bot has an advantage normal admin revert lacks, a proper edit summary.
I am also saddened by the semi-panic closure of the bot request. I'd wish it to be fully discussed. I only wish the idea be given a full thought process. Weather it gets accepted or not is a community decision. The location for this kind of discussion should be at the bot request page.

I'm not sure if you wanted to have that conversation here or on my talk page. I've responded there. — Coren (talk) 02:56, 30 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I am a relatively new Wikipedia contributor. I received my first message from your bot after creating this article today. It made me realize that I had not sufficiently altered the text of the press release I had cited as the article's source. I hope the changes I have now made to the article are sufficient.

Have I done all the steps I should with Linshukun?

edit

I've requested a checkuser (via the arbitration page) and let three admins know about the problem. Jehochman and Physchim62 seem a bit gun-shy right now (can't blame them), and Carcharoth is so new to being an admin that he doesn't feel comfortable blocking people. Do I try again? Maybe since your credibility is better than mine, you might give it a try to get someone actually to block him. I'd like to roll back all of his changes on general principle, but Phsychim62 would block me in 10 seconds if I did.Kww 20:27, 30 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Don't. While it does seem fishy, we can't jump the gun either. Just wait for a CU to be done, and we'll know for sure. Deciding what to do after that is simple (one way or another).

There is no need to be hasty; if it's SC we'll figure out for sure soon enough and we can undo any damage. If he's not, we'll look like we're actually on a witch hunt and it'll hurt the legitimate case against SC.

Patience is a virtue. Try to temper the tone of your reaction to what's been happening— I understand (and share) your anger and frustration at this pseudoscience being smeared all over Wikipedia, but we need to proceed carefully and set a precedent people will respect, not resent. — Coren (talk) 21:59, 30 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

RFA - of interest?

edit

A few weeks ago, you asked me how I thought you might stand for RFA in light of mainspace-fu stuff.

I today saw this RFA, and thought you'd be interested in it. It's almost identical in that way, so it might well give you a good independent yardstick to assess how you stand, and to judge the current communal perception of a good editor who is not primarily an article-writing oriented type.

You might find the two analyses at Interiot (Coren) and Interiot (Kwsn) are also of interest, though obviously RFA works off impressions of editors rather than statistical printouts :)

Best and hope this is interesting and informative :)

Singles. Period. The Vinyl Years 1980–1990

Um, last I checked, all album articles contained track listings, and generally aren't tagged as "copyright violations." I'm not sure what makes this situation different. For the record, I got the information from the back of the CD jewel case, and stuck the CD in my computer to get the track times. It did not come from the website listed on the copyright violation tag, although in this case it really shouldn't matter either way, unluess you're going to tag ALL album artcles for the same reasons?

Two things: You should look at the material she left on Physchim62's talk page. She's been digging more into the Lin Shukun's publishing house. Nothing earth-shattering, but interesting, nonetheless.

Second: I also think she needs a little bit of encouragement ... from a discussion I had on her talk page, I get the impression that she is feeling pretty stressed about this whole thing. I'd worry far more about her leaving Wikipedia than some of the admins that are involved in this case. Kww 14:02, 2 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Please teach your bot that the Catholic Encyclopedia text at www.newadvent.org is public domain. Second time of asking. (It's all in Wikisource, by the way.) Charles Matthews 22:04, 2 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

It does understand if the article was properly attributed. When you created the article, it did not have the {{Catholic}} template on it yet. If you want to avoid the trouble of CSBot tagging, then make sure the {{Catholic}} tag is on it when you create it; the bot usually looks at an article less than 30 seconds after its creation. — Coren (talk) 01:46, 3 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the quick reply. Let me summarize the situation: I have been editing the article since July and today I noticed looking at the history that you were the first mediator. After you came Vassyana and now there is a 3rd mediator, JoshuaZ, getting involved (!). When we were starting the mediation, an admin (JzG) stubbed and protected the page on November 2nd because it was a "giant ad" he said. Thousands of edits were lost and we had to restart the article from scratch. On November 8 another admin (Yamla) re-stubbed and protected the article because, according to him, "both sides have a COI". You see, Coren, it is really frustrating to spend many hours editing an article and trying to reach consensus on the talk page and then the article is stubbed and protected by an admin, so I would like to know your opinion before giving up and moving on.

Hi,

You notified me that the bot found similar text in the definition of Kaltura that I posted as on the TechCrunch site - the text that I used for Kaltura is taken from our own website, and I work at Kaltura.

Hello,

My name is Kelly Chandler, and I am a blogger for Helium, and a script doctor for playwrights. I saw the automated Bot when Googling the poet,David Oliver Doswell, II. I redited the page by request (having been the former editor for the essay Affirmation by the same name) according to the bio of The Metro Spirit here in Augusta, Georgia. It should follow all Wikipedia policy. Please inform me of any requests or violations of Wikipedia policy before removing his page, if you please.

CorenSearchBot: Price

edit

CorenSearchBot flagged Price (surname) when I moved information there from price (disambiguation), per MOS:DP. ENeville 00:05, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

I see that there's another similar issue raised immediately above. Perhaps the bot could wait a period of time (an hour?) before tagging articles. ENeville 00:07, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
In a case like that, it's really important that you actually move the article, rather than copy-and-paste the contents, because that looses the contribution history (which is a GFDL requirement). I'm going to be moving back the article to and delete the new one to make room for a correct move, after which you'll be able to create the disambiguation page. — Coren (talk) 00:08, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Respectfully, the page is titled "price (disambiguation)", so contributions would logically have been made in that context. Can you point to guidelines that support your proposed course of action? ENeville 00:14, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
The context is entirely immaterial, the requirement that all contributors to an article are preserved across forks and move is a sine qua non requirement of the GFDL (you are, of course, welcome to check with the larger communities around WP:SCV and WP:CP). At any rate, except for the movement of the edit history, the net effect will be exactly the same, so I'm not sure I understand where your concerns lie?
You can, by the way, avoid the problem entirely by moving the article, then editing the redirect that was left in its place into the disambiguation— that's even less trouble for you since it would usually avoid the trouble of the cut-and-paste to begin with. — Coren (talk) 00:19, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
If I understand correctly, the edit history is the point. Correct me if I'm wrong here, or if critical details were also intended.
My concern is that there are many "Title (disambiguation)" pages that have some "John Title" entries in them. I can see the argument in this case for moving the page to "Title (surname)", and replacing the redirect with the disambiguation page because the list of names is the bulk of the info. However, such is not always the case. Do I correctly understand that your suggestion in this case is contingent upon the length of the list of names, and not a generalized statement about moving unambiguous names from disambiguation pages? ENeville 00:37, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Mostly. There's a funny gray area around very short list of surnames vs. large disambigs— the usual practice is that when what you're moving is a small part of the article, simply linking back to the source in the edit history is more than enough and there is no point to moving the article. The most important part is that by looking at the edit history, you can trace back all the way to article creation; and convention is that the bulk of the edit history follows the bulk of the text. — Coren (talk) 00:41, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Oh, and please accept my apologies; I forgot to save a version of the surname page after your modifications, and that got overwritten with the move. That's a manipulation error on my part and I'm sorry I've undone some of your work. — Coren (talk) 00:45, 15 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Copyvio Nom: Paying the Price: Killing the Children of Iraq

edit

You removed db-copyvio because you said the article had been sufficiently rewritten. With respect, I disagree. Please consider the following comparisons between the current version and the source it was copied from:


Wikipedia: The United Nations Security Council imposed the sanctions and demanded the destruction of Saddam Hussein's chemical and biological weapons under the supervision of a United Nations Special Commission (UNSCOM). Iraq was permitted to sell a limited amount of oil in exchange for some food and medicine. (Oil for food programme.)

Pilger takes the former Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations, Denis Halliday, back to Iraq for the first time since he resigned in protest over the sanctions back in September 1998. Together, they reveal an extraordinary portrait of life in a country with a decaying infrastructure and a population that Pilger says is being held hostage to the compliance of Saddam Hussein.

Disturbing evidence emerges that the "holds" on humanitarian supplies have paralyzed the country and devastated millions of people, many dying from curable diseases because life saving drugs are only available intermittently. The US and UK backed sanctions are so prescriptive as to suggest that items as essential and innocuous as bleach could be “dual use” and so cannot be imported.

Pilger also provides evidence of the suffering caused to the civilian population by the bombing campaign being conducted by US and Britain in the guise of protecting the "no-fly zones" in northern and southern Iraq.

http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/pay.html The UN Security Council imposed the sanctions and demanded the destruction of Saddam Hussein's chemical and biological weapons under the supervision of a UN Special Commission (UNSCOM). Iraq is permitted to sell a limited amount of oil in exchange for some food and medicine.

Pilger takes the former Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations, Denis Halliday, back to the crippled country for the first time since he resigned in protest over the sanctions back in September 1998. Together, they reveal an extraordinary portrait of life in a country with a decaying infrastructure and a population that Pilger says is being held hostage to the compliance of Saddam Hussein.

Pilger has brought back disturbing evidence that the "holds" on humanitarian supplies have paralyzed the country and devastated millions of people, many dying from curable diseases because life saving drugs are only available intermittently. He also finds that the breakdown of the clean water system and health facilities are having a tragic effect on young children, contributing to an alarming rise in their mortality rate.

Pilger also exposes the suffering caused to the civilian population by the illegal bombing campaign being conducted by US and Britain in the "no-fly zones" in northern and southern Iraq.

The only original language in the Wikipedia article is the single sentence: "The US and UK backed sanctions are so prescriptive as to suggest that items as essential and innocuous as bleach could be “dual use” and so cannot be imported." The Reviews section of the article, while not precisely copyvio, is also a direct copy (in different order) of the Reviews section of the website. Thanks.

Hi. I have no problem with the protection, but you protected a version pushed by one user against three (of three different nationalities). This was no case of vandalism, it was one of highly controversial POV-pushing by one guy, against a compromise version. That guy is an open proxy, and most likely one used by User:Bonaparte, who has a long history of pulling such tricks. Please look into it. Dahn (talk) 18:42, 19 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Oops, my bad. Sorry. I would however picture that when an open proxy belonging to a banned vandal edits a text against three established users, the issue of impartiality would not be posed, and that a revert might be performed under such a protection without any significant controversy. I was under the assumption that it was a full block, and, as such, I did not object to the protection, but was rather concerned if the protection may actually get to preserve edits that are under any definition disruptive (as the case seemed to be here).

Hello!

This article is copied word for word from [2]. I think it qualifies for WP:CSD#G12 because:

    • The material was copied from another website;
    • There is no non-infringing content on either the page itself, or in the history, worth saving;
    • The material was introduced by Igycg (talk · contribs) and no one else has edited the article;

However, the last criterion is what I'm not sure about:

    • There is no credible assertion of public domain, fair use, or a free license.

Basically, the article sounds like it was created for advertising and recruitment purposes but I don't think it qualifies as blatant advertising. Do you think it's a G12? Thanks. SWik78 (talk) 14:36, 23 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Me again! Thanks for the help with the previous article.

This article in question this time is a target for a spammer whose IP seems to change with every edit. He keeps adding an external link [3] in the References section that does not belong there. First of all, it is not referenced anywhere in the article. Second, it is nothing more that a link to a website that hosts wallpapers, or 'panoramas', as the website calls them one of which happens to be a wallpaper of the subject of the article, including a short In memoriam. This article has been fairly notorious as a tribute page for his fans since he died. It was first protected on October 22 due to edit and revert warring by fans and then it was semi-protected on November 12 by User:Duja (currently on a Wikibreak) because of the spammer. If you look at the edit history of the article, you will notice several contributions of an IP that starts with 70.52 and changes with every edit. Every one of his contributions is the previously mentioned link, nothing more. Should the article be semi-protected again? I see no other way of stopping this because the spammer would be difficult if not impossible to block.
