Thanks for your note regarding this article and "broken links" I caused. The manual of style calls for links to not normally be used in headings. Accordingly, AWB removes them as a matter of course. Typically the alternative is to use the linked term in the body under the heading and link it there. --LilHelpa (talk) 00:16, 8 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

edit warring

edit
 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on NPR. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

  1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. aprock (talk) 19:51, 25 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Sorry Aprock. Thanks for pointing out that I was in violation of 3RR. I lost track. I always used the talk page before editing. I am sure neither of us wants to engage in edit-warring so let’s commit to reaching a consensus before any further edits on NPR. Thanks.Grahamboat (talk) 22:15, 25 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

NPR edits

Thanks for catching my mistake on the (federal,) state and local. I misread the preceding text. You are correct, the source indicates 5.8% from the sum of those sources, not just state and local.

By the way, it looks like we're all working on a solution for the "indirect government" funidng percentage. I think there's probably a really good combination between your text and references, and the comment DRRL made. Take a look at the Talk if you get a chance.

Friendly hello

edit

Hello, I'm a retired Wikipedian, and I was curious about understanding something a little bit of a side-topic to the Weiner debates. My question is (and I'll post a follow-up question if you'll allow) is why you believe that his resignation lessens the significance of the past 2-3 weeks? I'm sure you heard all the Breitbart stuff too, and followed this just as much as I have, if not more. I'm curious why you think his resignation "stops all this" rather than it marking the culmination of the buildup, and the beginning of the end... Sorry if I got a little artistic, but I saw your edit history and I admire your passion. I was also extraordinarily passionate about Wikipedia 2-3 years ago. So why do you think this leap of logic is kosher sequiter? It seems like you're saying "because of this, therefore that" when I kinda saw it the artistic way I described. The scandal now has a beginning, build-up, climax, culmination, and now it's winding down to its ending. In my heart, I think he resigned to "re-commit" to what matters most--his wife Uma and his unborn daughter. I think I explained my thoughts pretty well about how the resignation kinda "fits" into a beautiful month-long event which has tons of artistic value, storyline value, and has many moral/ethical/family lessons as well. 67.77.168.127 (talk) 08:31, 17 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hello 67.77.168.127. I don’t think the significance has lessened. All the germane facts should be included in the Main article. However, much of the detail in daughter article is no long relevant or is over covered. Pelosi’s call for an investigation is now moot. The five sentences calling for resignation can be handled in one. The poll information no longer has much significance. The time-line, which keeps appearing and reappearing, is redundant. The article is starting to look like a daily tabloid. In six months most of the minutia will be gone. As others have suggested perhaps it is too early to make a change. I am not suggesting minimizing the noteworthy facts of the scandal – just condensing them into the Main article. BTW starting 6/18 I will be away until 6/27. Thanks. Grahamboat (talk) 18:43, 17 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the stellar response! I agree that the article, if it is to be kept, will require some work. It's easy to criticize a page in its current form. On Sunday, I'll spend about an hour trying to make some productive edits to the scandal article. I agree that the Pelosi investigation is now a moot point, but from a biographical POV, this article is crucial to be included in an eternal encyclopedia like the one we're all building. Have a great 9-day vacation, and I look forward to collaborating on the article some more when you get back. Take care, 67.77.168.127 (talk) 01:03, 18 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
Hey, I'm trying to start work again on the Weiner article. I know we have differing viewpoints, which is why I'd like to invite you back over there again and bring your shovel (unless you have a map, lol) and I'd like to have a civil discussion over at the article's talk page, and see what unfolds organically, ya know? I hope your vacation went well, and that you missed Wikipedia. Cheers 67.77.168.127 (talk) 07:46, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Formal mediation has been requested

edit
The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 14 May 2012.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Second Amendment Collective-Rights History pre-Heller

edit

Please review prior to editing or commenting further on the Second Amendment. I have posted it on the Talk Page as well, but I'm reaching out to you and all other editors personally because I sincerely believe when you review the evidence and when you search for contrary evidence, you will see I am correct about this history.


The law WAS collective only prior to Heller. If I show you 3 cases and several commentaries by irrefutably accurate sources and you cannot show me a single case from 1939 to 2000 to refute it, you have to accept that history is history.

Here are some quotes from:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/nra-money-helped-reshape-gun-law/2013/03/13/73d71e22-829a-11e2-b99e-6baf4ebe42df_story.html

In 1977 at a Denver hotel, Don Kates paced a conference room lecturing a small group of young scholars about the Second Amendment and tossing out ideas for law review articles. Back then, it was a pretty weird activity in pursuit of a wacky notion: that the Constitution confers an individual right to possess a firearm.

“This idea for a very long time was just laughed at,” said Nelson Lund, the Patrick Henry professor of constitutional law and the Second Amendment at George Mason University, a chair endowed by the National Rifle Association. “A lot of people thought it was preposterous and just propaganda from gun nuts.” ...

The Second Amendment states: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Before the Heller decision, the Supreme Court and lower courts had interpreted the language as “preserving the authority of the states to maintain militias,” according to a Congressional Research Service analysis.

“It was a settled question, and the overwhelming consensus, bordering on unanimity, was that the Second Amendment granted a collective right” enjoyed by the states, not individuals, Bogus said. Under this interpretation, the Constitution provides no right for an individual to possess a firearm.

Lund [Remember he's the NRA-endowed Second-Amendment professor!] agreed that there was a consensus but said it was “based on ignorance.”

OK, you don't trust the Congressional Research Service, the Library of Congress, the New York Times, the Washington Post, or the National Rifle Association-endowed professor of constitutional law and the Second Amendment? How about trusting the courts themselves? Just read these three:

- Cases v. United States, 131 F.2d 916 (1st Cir. 1942)

- United States v. Warin, 530 F.2d 103, 106 (6th Cir. 1976) (“[i]t is clear that the Second Amendment guarantees a collective rather than an individual right.”)

- Love v. Peppersack, 47 F.3d 120, 123 (4th Cir. 1995) (“the lower federal courts have uniformly held that the Second Amendment preserves a collective, rather than individual right.”)

All of them cited Miller. All of them were the law of the land. There's not a single case in all of American history in any court state or federal that found an individual right to bear arms absent service in a militia and struck down a gun law as unconstitutional prior to 2000. I will pay $100 to anyone who can find any case that says so.

Furthermore, there is not a single President prior to 2000 that stated he believed the Supreme Court conferred an individual right to bear arms under the Second Amendment absent service in a militia. Even Reagan didn't believe it. I will pay $100 to anyone who can find any President that stated this position prior to 2000.

Truth is truth. If you don't like truth, you should not be editing wikipedia. Many editors here, I know you believe otherwise. But whoever told you a lie was true was mistaken. Read my sources. Then look for reliable sources on your own. When you can't find any (and if you do, I'll give you $100), I would respectfully request that all of you withdraw your objections. If you don't, then you are clear POV-pushers and should not be editing wikipedia.

Otherwise, if the only way to remove unreliable sources in wikipedia is to put up a request for comment and/or mediation, let's do it. I'll bet my reliable sources against all of your absence of sources any day. There is nothing wrong with admitting you are wrong. People are trying to revise history and some people fall prey to it. Maybe you read something on the Internet from some ignorant blogger and believed it to be true. I respectfully request you look at the sources and come to the only accurate conclusion.

My history is backed up by EVERY judicial decision and EVERY President prior to 2000 and the Library of Congress, and the Congressional Research Service, and the NRA-endowed Professor of the Second Amendment, not to mention the NYT and the WP. And the contrary position is backed up by some sincere mistaken beliefs AND NOT A SINGLE SOURCE.

An honest and ethical wikipedia editor cannot look truth in the face and declare it untrue without a single reliable source to back it up. I will post this on the talk page of every editor who has edited or commented recently because I sincerely want all of you to review the sources before further editing or commenting.

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion

edit
 

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The thread is "Second Amendment to the Constitution".

Guide for participants

If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form.

What this noticeboard is:
  • It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction.
What this noticeboard is not:
  • It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct.
  • It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums.
  • It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN.
  • It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy.
Things to remember:
  • Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors. Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion.
  • Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page.
  • Sign and date your posts with four tildes "~~~~".
  • If you ever need any help, ask one of our volunteers, who will help you as best as they can. You may also wish to read through the FAQ page located here and on the DR/N talkpage.

Please take a moment to review the simple guide and join the discussion. Thank you! EarwigBot operator / talk 03:21, 16 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Grahamboat - You have been changing the contents siding Prada. We find many of your explanation and edits discriminating against women and the objective of civil case distorted. Your facts should come from official testimonies, NGO reports and media based on these actual documents. We made changes to make it from social improvement perspective which is the vision of Wikipedia.

We put back the facts concluded from international NGO reports and legal testimonials shared by media. Distorting the legal case facts by your individual opinion is not relevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.188.116.119 (talk) 04:18, 9 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

I always try to respect woman’s rights. In this case I believe you are confusing women’s rights with a claim of an individual. A claim that was rejected by a court of law. To try to spin it otherwise is POV.
