No cut-and-paste moves, please

Latest comment: 12 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, you recently did a cut-and-paste move of De Proef to De Proefbrouwerij. It is important that you not do this in order to preserve the article editing history. This is legally required for the type of licensing that Wikipedia uses. In the future, when you want to move an article, look at the top of the page for a tab labeled "rename". I've fixed the move with this article. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Welcome to Wikipedia! LadyofShalott 15:03, 3 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

OK, thanks!--Queeste (talk) 15:33, 3 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hey, ik zie dat je ook Belgische bieren op de Franstalige en Engelstalige wiki's aanmaakt. Knap werk! --Dirk Van Esbroeck (talk) 19:37, 3 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Doe ik maar sporadisch hoor. Er is nog zoveel te schrijven in het Nederlands. Eens je ermee begint, zie je duizenden mogelijkheden. De Belgische biercultuur ook in het Engels en Frans wat plaats geven, is ook een uitdaging, maar is ga me toch vooral op de Nederlandse Wiki concentreren.--Queeste (talk) 06:58, 4 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

ACBS AfD

Latest comment: 12 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

In the deletion discussion on ACBS one editor who voted keep has expressed support for a redirect to the ACT article. Would you support that? If so then please leave a comment on the AfD.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 01:03, 24 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

I hope you aren't somehow suggesting here that you would nominate countless other articles for deletion in response to an unfavorable AfD result.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 17:08, 24 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

I would expect you to do that, if you're independent (as I suppose you are) and not just an opponent (because there are a lot of opponents, as perhaps you don't know - science is a really though world).--Queeste (talk) 17:37, 24 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

This has nothing to do with my opinion on the therapy (I actually agree with the underlying concept), but whether I think the organization has sufficient notability for an independent article. I am occupied with enough stuff on Wikipedia as is and this article I only noticed inadvertently.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 00:37, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Regarding proposed merge of ACBS into ACT, please do read up on Wikipedia guidelines

Latest comment: 12 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi Queeste. I posted this comment just now on Talk:Acceptance and commitment therapy for you -

I you persist in applying your own personal, preferred definitions to Wikipedia processes, this is only going to cause friction. Your interpretation here that a merge cannot be considered because a delete was ruled out is not correct by Wikipedia standards. And we are working inside Wikipedia, not in a world that plays by your rules alone. I support your general position on ACBS as a significant organization outside of ACT, but please, do read up on Wikipedia guidelines so we can talk about the proposed merge (and any other issues that arise) in a constructive manner. I am hopeful you will hear what I am saying.

I am guessing there is a good chance that outside the world of Wikipedia, you and I may have bumped into each other (in a virtual sense) through our mutual association with ACT/ACBS. I don't want to breach the wall of Wikipedia anonymity, but I do wish to express my hope that we are both working here within the context of Wikipedia toward what I assume is mutual goal of developing appropriate and informative topics on ACT, ACBS, RFT, etc. And to me, that means following Wikipedia rules and not ticking off other editors (who are not familiar with ACT/ACBS etc.) who may seem quarrelsome, but in their own way are also trying to follow Wikipedia rules! Hope this message does not come across as out of line - I mean it more as a peace offering than a scolding. Let us work together constructively. Whole Sight (talk) 12:19, 9 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for letting me know. I will retreat from this discussion - don't want to look like a stuborn, irrational promotor. I'm not here to promote anything, not ACT, not ACBS, ... My contributions on these topics are less than 1% of my contributions (Dutch Wikipedia). As I wrote before: I'm a convinced Wikipedian. It's a hobby and I want to keep it this way.

Hi Queeste, The source for some of the material (www.eroica.com) is properly quoted. BTW the Eroica site uses material submitted by the artist's agent (who also created this page) in the first place. Hope this allays your concerns. Best, Ciaccone (talk) 17:16, 26 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

The problem is that a large part of the text is litterally taken from that site and the site does not mention free use.--Queeste (talk) 18:48, 26 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

spelling correction - "mecical topics" or "medical topics"

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi Queeste, hope u r fine. I am just another applicant for Wikipedia:Cochrane and I've just glanced your application following mine. I think a correction is needed - "mecical topics" should actually be "medical topics". - again, this just my view, sorry if this message has caused you any inconvenience.

Deep networking: Built relationships with Credo, HighBeam, Questia, JSTOR, Cochrane, LexisNexis, EBSCO, New York Times, and OCLC

New pilot projects: Started the Wikipedia Visiting Scholar project to empower university-affiliated Wikipedia researchers

Developed community: Created portal connecting 250 newsletter recipients, 30 library members, 3 volunteer coordinators, and 2 part-time contractors

Tech scoped: Spec'd out a reference tool for linking to full-text sources and established a basis for OAuth integration

Broad outreach: Wrote a feature article for Library Journal's The Digital Shift; presenting at the American Library Association annual meeting

The Wikipedia Library: New Account Coordinators Needed

Latest comment: 10 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hi Books & Bytes recipients: The Wikipedia Library has been expanding rapidly and we need some help! We currently have 10 signups for free account access open and several more in the works... In order to help with those signups, distribute access codes, and manage accounts we'll need 2-3 more Account Coordinators.

It takes about an hour to get up and running and then only takes a couple hours per week, flexible depending upon your schedule and routine. If you're interested in helping out, please drop a note in the next week at my talk page or shoot me an email at: jorlowitz gmail.com.
