Editing
Dear OLEnglish,
I have edited the Page: Carl Gustav Jung, adding in the list of significant works: Answer to Job & to People: Fr. Victor White, O.P. Close Friend. Both of these pages I was directly involved with developing. However, when I placed them in before they were removed. Their entries are in their correct places, and are significant to be included on listings. Please, can they remain as the page is not complete without their entries. MacOfJesus (talk) 17:03, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
The entries were removed again, in "See Also". I cannot see why anyone should remove Fr. Victor White's entry as he and Jung had a very close friendship that ended up the two meeting in Jung's retreat where the influnce on each became strong... as witnessed in the page I wrote: Fr Victor White.. together with ACEOREVIVED [A prof. of this subject]. MacOfJesus (talk) 21:19, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
- It appears that both pages, Victor White and Answer to Job, are already linked within the main text of the article, at the section titled "Later life". As per Wikipedia guidelines for See also sections we try not to duplicate links that are already linked within the text. This is why they were removed from the See also listings, but the links still remain in the text however, so it's not really a problem. -- Ϫ 04:56, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
Thank you Ol, otherwise the Page, Jung, would not be complete..... MacOfJesus (talk) 15:59, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Satyapal Anand page
Hi OIEnglish I am writing my first page based on original research about an author who I believe has made enormous literary contributions in four languages. I continue to strengthen the critical evaluation part as I research new materials. Meanwhile, I request your support and patience. It is a great learning experience for me and I am getting better. Will you please consider removing some exclamation marks on top of the page as you see progress. Thanks and best regards, Sdeol (talk) 22:52, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry.. by "exclamation marks" did you mean cleanup templates?? -- Ϫ 04:20, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

WikiProject Cleanup invitation
I've formatted the WikiProject Cleanup page to include members for those that are interested in joining, similar to how other projects have members. Since you've contributed relatively recently to the project's list page, I formally extend this invitation to join WikiProject Cleanup! I've also created a userbox template for members to use on their user pages. Thank you for your contributions to help improve Wikipedia! Northamerica1000(talk) 08:32, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Copy/edit on this page is mostly done. Cleaned up a bunch of links and left section tags. Can you remove or edit your page tag asap? Couldn't get it to modify directly.Blurbzone (talk) 08:51, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

New Page Triage engagement strategy released
Hey guys!
I'm dropping you a note because you filled out the New Page Patrol survey, and indicated you'd be interested in being contacted about follow-up work. This is to notify you that we've finally released both the initial documentation about the project and also the engagement strategy, which sets out how we plan to work with the community on this. Please give both a read, and leave any comments or suggestions you have on the talkpage, on my talkpage, or in my inbox - okeyes wikimedia.org.
It's awesome to finally get to start work on this! :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 02:24, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
MOTDs (This space for rent)
You may have noticed over the past few days that the MOTD that you link to on your user page has simply displayed a red link. This is due to the fact that not enough people are reviewing pending MOTDs here. Please help us keep the MOTD template alive and simply go and review a few of the MOTDs in the list. That way we can have a real MOTD in the future rather than re-using (This space for rent). Any help would be appreciated! –pjoef (talk • contribs) 12:27, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

WP:RFPP
Clean-up February 2012
- The Sopranos: The whole article is unbelievably laboured throughout. Extent of content in Info' box has been discussed previously, and has been debated extensively but to no avail, thanks to the aggressive participation of non-registered IPs. Suggest partial protection before attempting editing on this article. A project on which I would then be more than pleased to participate.

- Have you tried requesting protection at WP:RFPP? -- Ϫ 02:04, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Could you please help me?
The article Virtuous circle and vicious circle lacks much needed citations. As I did not write it, I have no idea where to find any. Could you please locate any citations for contributions you made to this article?--Benjamin 08:05, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

neutrality dispute
hello, sorry to bother you, i came across a page by chance link below
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryder_Ripps it seems obvious self promotion to me, as it was linked from the underarmor web page as a non-sports figure whereas he has no sponsorship from that company. I read up on his sources and the history and its pretty obvious the sources are mostly from his friends. In any case I think neutrality and POV tags belong on the page but the self-promotor keeps removing them. He even made messaged me you can see it on my talk page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:75.111.50.125 using a phone number well established for himself via the internet. In any case i think mediation would be appropriate. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.111.50.125 (talk) 03:18, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
- I added a COI tag. You could take the article to Articles for Deletion and present your case there for others to discuss its merits, but I wouldn't bother, judging by the message he left on your talk page it's obvious that engaging any further is not worth your time. I'll keep an eye on it for a little while. -- Ϫ 07:03, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

I am vandalzing my sandbox
It is ok to write stupid things on my sandbox as long as I don't do it an actual Wiki page right? I don't wanna get in trouble but I want to humor myself as well in a manner which doesn't affect other people :P. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Would you like to be my groupie (talk • contribs) 10:17, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

- (talk page stalker) There is difference between being funny and being stupid :P Also, main aim of this website is to built the encyclopedia, not to do timepass with your sandbox.

Image Question
Dear OlEnglish,
I wish to ask a question on the talk page of Saint Pius V regarding an image that I have come across on the Internet. However, I have difficulty getting the image to come on the talk page. How do I do it? MacOfJesus (talk) 21:39, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
- Unless the image is uploaded to Wikipedia itself, you may only link to it. To link to an external page on the internet use the following syntax:
[http://www.example.com your-description-goes-here]
If the image is uploaded to Wikipedia it would then be possible to actually display it within the text of your message, but not if it's an image you found elsewhere on the internet. -- Ϫ 00:20, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
Thank you OlEnglish,
I have after many trials succeeded in getting it on the talk page of Pope Pius V. The image is from 1587 approx. so well outside copyright. The background imaging is what I need to explain. Once again Thank You. MacOfJesus (talk) 10:44, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
Father Victor White/ Victor White, O.P.
The page: Victor White, has my research on him changed in "letters", to a confusion of the issue. It it's talk page I left a comment to that effect. The section "letters" is meant to reflect Fr White's position, and as it is, it reflects points not envisaged in the letters. I ask that it be returned to the way it was. Thank you for helping me with the imaging.... MacOfJesus (talk) 16:25, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
On further looking, I think this entry is vandalism, as it has nothing to do with the Jung/white relationship.MacOfJesus (talk) 20:29, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
- If you're referring to this edit, I wouldn't call that vandalism, but feel free to undo it and restore your version if there is no response to your message on the talk page. -- Ϫ 20:34, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
Thank you OlEnglish, I have reversed it. I explained in the talk page that this was, it was, not reflective of the conflict. Once again thank you.. MacOfJesus (talk) 23:34, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
