Regarding your change with the comment “Varietal is the adjective, variety the noun, fixing the grammar” — have a look at this definition. Seeing as it's not incorrect, it's shorter than “varietal wine,” and it's more specific than “variety” by itself, I much prefer varietal as a noun. It's also nice to have a one-word translation of fr:Cépage. Nathan 08:09, 26 May 2004 (UTC)Reply

Article Licensing

edit

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

Champagne

edit

Hi... I like your recent edit to Champagne. I've had some concerns about the state of the article (NPOV, muddled statements), and your edit does a good job of addressing them. I just wanted to point out that you accidentally added an incomplete sentence (and I'd like to see the end of it!). -- Coneslayer 14:38, 2005 Jun 23 (UTC)

However, companies like Korbel have been producing California Champagne for over a century and now ironically claim that their long tradition prevents them from .

naturwein

edit

Thanks for making it clear under QmP what naturwein was. Curiously I was at a tasting of old German wines (1945/1953/1959/1967/1971/1983/1990) and did wonder what this meant, as several bottles were labelled with this. I have been a bit slack on wine entries recently and will do some more work on them.... Justinc 00:46, 15 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

You're quite welcome. The terminology on German wines, even as codified in 1971, is baroque, and when you get wines from before that, it's practically impossible, even for Germans. The naturwein is the one thing I'm pretty sure I understand. And don't get me started on cabinet vs. kabinett, et al. Wnissen 02:00, 15 July 2005 (UTC)Reply
well if you ever come to London, do let me know, we could discuss the whole cabinet thing... Justinc 02:24, 27 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

Pinot Noir

edit

"NPOV'd a bit about Burgundy"? Why, sir, to allow remain an assertion that Burgundy produces the best Pinot is not only POV of the most heinous calibre, but an affront to every Californian and individual of good taste! ;) Collabi 03:10, 19 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Hey, no fair using hidden HTML comments, you sneak! I checked, and American pinot noir outnumbers Burgundy in the cellar seven to four, so it's obvious where my personal feelings are as far as regular drinking. However, I have yet to hear anyone who's sampled the best of California and the best of Burgundy and settled on the former. Of course, being willing to pay hundreds of dollars a bottle for Burgundy has a strong self-selection effect for people who already really like Burgundy... Wnissen 13:34, 19 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Philips Phile

edit

Prove it's not a neutral and relevant edit and I'll stop. So far, you haven't proved anything, except to cite it's "too long." It's a neutral edit, if you re-read it you WILL see that great pain was taken to ensure that it was reported solely based on FACT, not by anything else. It was a far more major incident then a one-line sentence can cover. And I get it, no more then three edits to an article in a day, sheesh, should edit that down to a one line sentence.

The entire paragraph is filled with loaded and accusatory words. You want to discuss the article, do it on the talk page. I added a note to your Talk page because the Wikipedia requires a multiple notifications before users are blocked from editing. Also, I can tell who you are, but please sign your posts using four ~ characters so that they are "signed." Wnissen 01:20, 22 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

It had nothing to do with anonymous-type edits, though I did forget. Whoops, lol. Regardless, you point out the words, and I'll change them. That simple. Don't delete the whole article because of a few words, do some actual revision, tell me what they are, and I'll do my best to change them. Payneos 03:47, 22 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content.

I would recommend completely ignoring categories, links, and all the Wiki-specific stuff. Let the Wiki experts take care of that stuff, they don't need wine knowledge and they're way better at it than you or I. (As an example, I accidentally put the stub statement at the top of ten of your new pages and had to go back and fix them all.) Content is the key, and you are providing it in spades.

I seek your advice

edit

Hi. I earlier posted a brief review of the reseach literature titled "Alcohol and Teenagers' Brains." about which three was some discussion. It was subsequently deleted, apparently because it was seen as original research.

I then revised the piece slightly under the title "Alcohol and young brains" and put this note on the discussion page:

Please note: This entry does not constitute original research according to Wikipedia guidelines:

“Original research that creates primary sources is not allowed. However, research that consists of collecting and organizing information from existing primary and/or secondary sources is strongly encouraged. In fact, all articles on Wikipedia should be based on information collected from primary and secondary sources. This is not ‘original research,’ it is ‘source-based research,’ and it is fundamental to writing an encyclopedia.”

Thank you.David Justin 21:14, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Alcohol_and_young_brains"

I now discover that it was deleted without any comment or explanation whatsoever. What are my options and what would you recommend?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.David Justin 21:38, 14 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Good Morning, David Justin. The article was listed for deletion and that was the result. You can read the debate at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Alcohol_and_Teenage_Brains

It was deleted without debate (i.e., via speedy deletion) the second time around because it was a repost of an already deleted article. Let me first say that I don't agree with the result of the deletion; several participants said the content should be merged into Alcohol, which is not a bad idea, but no one did so and the article was deleted anyway. You might try listing it for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review but reposting the article will not work. Wnissen 15:58, 16 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thats for the useful advice, which I'll follow.David Justin 17:56, 16 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

This is a friendly note to let you know that you have been moved to the Inactive members page of the Wine Project. Users are moved to this page when two months have passed without any Wikipedia activity or 3 months have passed without any contribution to a wine related article. The intent of the Participant list is to function as a resource for other editors wishing to get in contact with wine project members for comments or question on Wikipedia's wine article. The goal of this process is to try and maintain the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wine/Participants as current and up to date as possible with active and contributing members. Please note that this is not intended to be a negative reflection on your Wikipedia or wine related contribution and it is well known that sometimes outside life can take editors away from Wikipedia for some time.

Ruby Hill Winery

edit
 

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Ruby Hill Winery, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Speedy deletion of Geoffrey Colvin

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Geoffrey Colvin requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Truthanado (talk) 17:13, 20 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Reserve wine

edit
 

The article Reserve wine has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced since '09. Nothing to prove notability. Subjective statements and OR.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

edit

Thanks for your contributions to Enobong Anna Branch. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and it is promotional and reads like an advertisement. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Can I ask, in all kindness, if you are allowed to do this? She easily meets the standards of WP:PROF. To be the lead PI on a $3 million NSF grant is extremely, extremely prestigious, something like top 100 grants in the country. I didn't put a laundry list of the invited talks precisely because it wasn't core to her research but she is regularly a featured speaker.

Jamiebuba I added some honors. It is really hard to believe that a full professor at an R1, member of several committees, PI for a large grant, etc. does not qualify. She has 471 citations in the last five years. Is she a National Academy member? No. Is she clearly well above average as an academic? Yes. Look at the other people who gave the invited WST talk.
