If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on John Maxson Stillman 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.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Inks.LWC (talk) 02:11, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia, thank you for taking the time to create a page here. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you created yourself. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the deletion tag you removed from John Maxson Stillman. Please do not continue to remove the deletion tag, instead, if you disagree with the deletion, you can follow these steps:
Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do. For further help about the deletion, you could contact the user who first placed the tag or a highly active user who is willingly to help with deletion. This message was left by a bot, so please do not contact the bot about the deletion. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 02:14, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks very much for your attempts to improve the references to my book, Through the Jade Gate to Rome, which I can see are well-intentioned. Unfortunately, the way you have been doing it has probably breached Wikipedia guidelines which led to me receiving this notice on my talk page today (which I will paste in below). Please have a look at the discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard#User:John Hill so you can see what the problem is and avoid doing it in future.
- "Your edits are under discussion"
- This is a courtesy notice that I have brought certain of your edits under discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard#User:John Hill. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:44, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for your interest in my book - but I hope you will see how it is negatively affecting my reputation on the WP. Do leave me a note on my talk page if you have any concerns. All best wishes, John Hill (talk) 22:59, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
I have just discovered that you have set me up (by adding a "pipe" link to my name) and then attacked me and my credibility on the Talk page of the article on the li and I have written this reply at: Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard#User:John Hill and Orange Mike | Talk 13:44, 28 September 2011 (UTC):
- I would also like to point out that I have been set up and then subjected to an unwarranted personal attack by Have mörser, will travel on the Editing Talk:Li(unit) page at [[3]] You can see my reply there. Can someone please do something to stop this sort of unfair attack? Sincerely, John Hill (talk) 01:06, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

Please please please learn how to use the preview button. The revision history of William Muir is an absolute mess because you have made ~75 edits in the last two days, and most of them are minor wording changes. Saving every minor change makes review of your edits nearly impossible, and will often lead to rollbacks and reverting to previous versions. Please preview every edit you make to an article, and make sure that consecutive edits are substantive. A single incident of making a substantive edit followed by a minor change is significantly different from several dozen in a row. VanIsaacWScontribs 11:13, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi! From your edits, it looks like you might be interested in ancient Dacia. Would you like to join the WikiProject Dacia? It is a project aimed to better organize and improve the quality and accuracy of the articles related to these topics. We need help expanding and reviewing many articles, and we also need more images. Your input is welcomed! Thanks and best regards! |

"I'm concerned about what is going on at Allied Intervention in Hungary; basically WP:SYNT in order to push a POV, which is mostly about the title, but also involving plain misuse of sources, cited to say the opposite of what they actually state. See this diff [4] (multiple consecutive edits by the same user) as a good example of the problem. I left a comment on the talk page there as well. I don't think this is something ANI can handle, because it requires an editor to read history sources carefully, like yourself :-)"
Thanks for clarifying what's going on with your comment on the talk page.
I'm surprised that a simple footnote, copied from WP:EQ would be so disputed, but I'll let you work it out with others on the talk page. --Ronz (talk) 16:47, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
I'm removing all the policies and guidelines from my watch list, effective immediately. I came to the conclusion that editing there is a serious time drain and found the atmosphere rather unpleasant. I have no intention to spend 95% of my wiki time in sterile arguments about some wording that hardly ever gets enforced, especially arguing with "policy wonks" who seem to hardly ever edit any article. The only way to keep up with them is probably to become like them, and I have no intention of doing that. Have mörser, will travel (talk) 18:01, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
I may be reading my own views into your comments, but something you wrote on the talk page struck me as very constructive. it had something to do with avoiding a knee-jerk view of "reliable sources." I do not believe there is any problem with the "... not truth" formula; I think many of the problems have to do with a naive and sloppy application of Reliable Sources. You may not agree with me about the truth thing, but I think we agree that the guidelines on using sources needs a lot of work. Too many editors think that any publication is sufficient to establish a source as reliable. I do not even believe that an article by a PhD in a peer-reviewed journal is necessarily reliable for anything more than "X believes Y." An article written by an acknowleged expert in a top journal may nevertheless express a fringe theory, or speculation - one has to wait for time to pass to see if the view ends up accepted by peers as significant or mainstream. Similarly after many years great research can be proven wrong or surpassed. Finally, an article that is a top scholarship may contain within it statements which are speculative, tangential, opinion. To be able to draw these distinctions one must read a LOT more than most editors here are willing to read ... but I think our RS guidelines need to provide criteria for distinguishing between these kinds of claims. My point is that a source may be reliable for some things but not others. based on your recent comments I think you might agree... Slrubenstein | Talk 22:26, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
Things calmed down after I noted that we had found a point of agreement, and for the last couple of days I have ignored a discussion in which I have no involvement. Just now I checked back, only to discover a WP:BATTLEGROUND. I'm sorry, but being literal and objective is my primary mode of communication, which seems to irritate you intensely. So I'll skip the analysis and get right to the point, do you want to back off and clean up the talk page, or should I take this to ANI and request a topic ban be imposed on you at WT:TPG and WP:TPG?

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Corrections. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. JeffJ (talk) 19:49, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would ask that you assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not on User talk:JeffJ. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. On the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Corrections, I made it very clear to you that you had placed the citation in the wrong place within the paragraph. Once you corrected your error, I acknowledged the correction and have not since removed the citation. Since then, posting a 3-revert rule warning on my talk page smacks of violating WP:AGF. I would remind you also that the material to attached the citation to is obviously plagiarized from the source. JeffJ (talk) 18:26, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
Remember that RFCs are part of Dispute Resolution and at times may take place in a heated environment. Please take a look at the relevant RFC page before responding and be sure that you are willing and able to enter that environment and contribute to making the discussion a calm and productive one focussed on the content issue at hand. See also Wikipedia:Requests for comment#Suggestions for responding.
Greetings! You have been randomly selected to receive an invitation to participate in the request for comment on Wikipedia talk:Citing sources. Should you wish to respond to the invitation, your contribution to this discussion will be very much appreciated! However, please note that your input will carry no greater weight than anyone else's: remember that an RFC aims to reach a reasoned consensus position, and is not a vote. In support of that, your contribution should focus on thoughtful evaluation of the issues and available evidence, and provide further relevant evidence if possible.

Titled Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Non-AfD NACs, it pertains to ((Request close)) and Category:Requests for Close, which were created after a discussion at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/Archive 78#Template to request a discussion be closed.

Hello ASCIIn2Bme. You are User:Have mörser, will travel, and also operate other accounts, and under all of them you apparently do not feel welcome here anymore. Perhaps you could take a moment to consider why. You state: The essence of Wikipedia is that's just a social club for script kiddies or IRC buddies to run roughshod over fools who try to contribute here - in my opinion your various comments under your multiple identities exacerbate the very issues you complain about.
You have already been requested to adopt some good faith, and I would ask you to accept that in spite of the number of seemingly childish contributors who try to use the encyclopedia as a social networking site, the majority of serious registered users are mature adults and university graduates.
The WikiMedia and MediaWiki pages are not Wikipedia, and are for discussing development of the global Wiki project - any other comments concerning routine editing on local Wikipedias , and particularly ones about the behaviour of individuals are misplaced, are a disruption to this process, and are possible personal attacks. In addition, you should read postings before you cite them incorrectly, and get the facts straight before you accuse the wrong people.
I will investigate your use of multiple accounts, and if need be, I will not block them directly myself, but I will open a Sockpupet investigation and let other administrators decide. Do bear in mind that a sockpuppet block will prevent you from creating any new accounts under other names.
I hope you'll take this message in the good faith with which it is intended, and that pending this investigation, you will moderate you future participation both here on Wikipedia, and on the Foundation pages. Regards, --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:35, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

You contributed to a recent discussion about an editor who was creating many stubs. The conclusion was that this was just a case of a prolific editor, with no violation of policy.

Hi ASCII, when you said "[...]please don't modify a RfC[...]" here[13], were you referring to me? I do not recall modifying it. And believe me, I would have loved to modify it (if such were permitted) to show its true intent (it's one discussed and rejected on the Muhammad Images talk page for being biased and solely purposed to remove all images due to religious objections with the additional bias of implying all those images have no value).

In the absence of explanation on the talk page, I'm puzzled by the globalize tag you added to the Chemical variations section of subject article. Your edit summary included a comment that you doubt something in that section applies to UK practices. That section appears globally neutral to me; although I can see some US bias in the Manufacturing section. In the absence of an alternative explanation or reference supporting the alleged UK difference, I propose to remove the globalize tag after including a main article link to the Cordite article in the Manufacturing section.Thewellman (talk) 19:16, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Just a small question: W.r.t. Talk:Karrine Steffans/Archive 2, you've said that "both sides behaved subpar if one peruses the talk page." Similar sentiment expressed in outside view.

Until now, I have been thinking you've been deliberately twisting my intent as a cheap rhetorical device, but when I read this post it occurred to me you are sincere in your belief.
I think I need to explain something clearer than I have. I had no intention of discussing the prevalence of poor social sensitivity on Wikipedia. But when Hans brought it up, in a rather brutal way, and it looked like he was being misunderstood, I felt I should contribute my two cents. I was trying to make the point that an organisation that disregards offensiveness is displaying a trait common to certain types of mental illness, but I was saying nothing about individuals in that debate.
Some individuals that defend that position will suffer from autism or psychopathy but many others will defend the position because, though they have healthy social sensitivity and prefer not to offend, they believe it is wrong to compromise openness in any degree.
I'm worried that you think I believe you or others in the debate are mentally ill: I have no reason to. Or that I am implying it as a rhetorical tactic. I have made no such suggestion. This isn't dog whistling.
I genuinely have no opinion about the mental health of any of the individuals in that debate, except for one, who explained he is on the autism spectrum. I would never suggest or imply such an opinion even if I were ever to form one about an individual. I would appreciate it if you would believe me on this as it is the truth.
As an aside, I believe it is perfectly legitimate to discuss this question, though I can't see it being of any practical use at the project, so would never have introduced it into that discussion myself. --Anthonyhcole (talk) 14:06, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello there!
It seems my post mixed signals with yourself and SandyGeorgia. I apologize for misunderstanding of my intentions of my post regarding CU information and Rlevse/BarkingMoon. My point was that when we find a CheckUser on SPI to be as Kirill phrased it, "ambiguous", it is sent back to the clerks and admins to process based on behavioral evidence. It is rare that such circumstance as the one that we're involved in currently to happen, and my intention was to focus on gathering behavioral evidence if we want to start a consensus for a sock or not, which never happened previously.
This is the process that is happening now, and I for one appreciate your bringing forward the detailed evidence the community would like to see. I have no position one way or the other on how the community acts, my post was simply to focus discussion. This is also why I annoying posted it three times (sorry about that, everyone), but my reasoning was this spiral thread was tl;drallofitjustparts and I wanted to be sure to note focus for specific subsections. That didn't seem to work so well for yourself and SandyGeorgia, the two working the hardest on this project. I apologize if this inflamed the conversation on both of your parts. I misspoke in emphasis on how view the previous case from last summer, since as noted it was not well documented, and I was accounting from memory.

A premature RFC, before the issue has even been correctly formulated and positioned, is guaranteed to crater anything useful, and is precisely what many of us were worried would happen if a bunch of people started in there.

Hey there :).
You're being contacted because you participated in a discussion that touched on (or was about) how Wikipedia treats new pages, new editors, and the people who deal with both - patrollers. I'm happy to say we've started work on New Page Triage, a suite of software that will replace Special:NewPages and hopefully make it a more pleasant experience for all. Please take a look, read about what we're planning to do, and add any notes on the talkpage, where some additional thoughts are already posted :).
In addition, on Tuesday 13th March, we're holding an office hours session in #wikimedia-office on IRC at 19:00 UTC (11am Pacific time). If you can make it, please do; we'll have a lot of stuff to show you and talk about, including (hopefully) a timetable of when we're planning to do what. If you can't come, for whatever reason, let me know on my talkpage and I'm happy to send you the logs so you can get an idea of what happened :).

Could you take a look & let us know what you think at Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/11_February_2012/Muhammad-images#Finalizing_Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment.2FMuhammad_images. Thanks.

Dear ASCIIn2Bme: Hello, this is to let you know that a Mediation Cabal case that you are involved in, or have some connection with:
is currently inactive as it has not been edited in at least a week. If the issues in the case have been resolved, please let us know on our talk page so we can close the case. If there are still issues that need to be addressed, let us know. If your mediator has become inactive, also let us know. The case will be closed in one month if it remains inactive. You can let us know what's going on by sending a message through to your mediator, Xavexgoem, on their talk page. Thanks! MedcabBot (talk) 18:07, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Dispute Resolution – Survey Invite Hello ASCIIn2Bme. I am currently conducting a study on the dispute resolution processes on the English Wikipedia, in the hope that the results will help improve these processes in the future. Whether you have used dispute resolution a little or a lot, now we need to know about your experience. The survey takes around five minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released. Please click HERE to participate. You are receiving this invitation because you have had some activity in dispute resolution over the past year. For more information, please see the associated research page.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
