That's fine, I suppose. I opened a discussion on the talk page earlier; feel free to post when you have the time. NW (Talk) 17:22, 25 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Changes to OrbitboxPlanet templates

edit

Hi, I reverted out your addition of a radius column to the OrbitboxPlanet templates. This is a major layout change that affects many articles, and at present the majority of known exoplanets do not have this information. It is probably worth bringing this up at WT:ASTRO before doing these kind of changes. Regards, Icalanise (talk) 23:51, 7 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

White–Juday warp-field interferometer

edit

Thank you for the response and I apologize if my comments on the article talk page came off like I am shooting the messenger. I too love articles on quantum mechanics and space travel and would love to see a break-through in space travel. I am, however, skeptical of break-through announcements (even from NASA). You used the wording of the secondary online news sources for the article that, in turn, used the press releases from the research group. The news sources should have known better than to repeat the fantastic claims of the group without carefully looking into them. I am tempted to put the article up for deletion however it is perhaps better to leave it to counter the fantastic (and unsupported) claims being made for this device.

Dear Quantanew, can you give me a reference, where did you take tis picture from?

I will be very pleased. Thanks a lot. Niihelium (talk) 18:57, 23 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited HARPS-N, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page First light (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Florence Griffith Joyner

edit

Quantanew - Nearly two weeks ago, you asked me to discuss an edit to Florence Griffith Joyner on that talk page rather than removing it from the entry. Though I find the edit to be unencyclopedic and virtually indefensible, I complied with your request, but the talk page section has sat undiscussed for all of this time. Are you planning to comment? I see that someone has edited the poor grammar, but I really don't feel like the testosterone information should be there at all without a source connecting it to the subject.

As an additional heads up, I believe you mischaracterized the revert process when you commented in your edit summary "Don't revert before talk". Though there are exceptions, the usual process is known as WP:BRD - bold, revert, discuss. One editor makes a bold edit, another editor reverts it (as I did with good explanation in the edit summary on this article), so the next step would be discussion (not another revert like yours). I started the discussion after your revert, so I hope that you'll choose to participate. EricEnfermero (Talk) 03:45, 22 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi, the reason why I removed your recent edits is that the claim of FTL travel being possible is a pretty huge one, and requires lots of realiable sources to back it up. The Washington post article was not related (it was speculation, and published before the experiments were performed). The other two are non-peer reviewed presentations. Let's wait for the peer review. Smite-Meister (talk) 16:51, 24 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Nomination of Colossus Telescope for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Colossus Telescope is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Colossus Telescope until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. ChiZeroOne (talk) 15:11, 6 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Edit warring at Computer shogi

edit
 

Your recent editing history at Computer shogi shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:22, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

File:SABRE ENGINE.jpg

edit
 

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.
