Ali ibn al-Madini[edit]

I reverted your edits to Ali ibn al-Madini and Historiography of early Islam based upon Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Calendars which states:

Dates can be given in any appropriate calendar, as long as the date in either the Julian or Gregorian calendars is provided, as described below. For example, an article on the early history of Islam may give dates in both Islamic and Julian calendars.

You are now a Reviewer[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:33, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Zeitgeist Movement[edit]

You should think about learning what it actually is before making edits on the wiki page. From what you added to the Zeitgeist Concepts none of it can be found in the references. Go back and read you're references. Also on what basis do you add the tone thing? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gaby 64 (talkcontribs) 02:11, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]


The edits you made you The Zeitgeist Movement are slanderous lies and need to be corrected asap. The citations you provided contain no text that could lead anyone to draw the conclusions you made. Please correct these errors or provide further justification for the allegations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by L thetruth (talkcontribs) 03:09, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

South Park[edit]

From our discussion previously about the end of South Park in 2011 or 2013. I did some digging and found pretty much nothing indicating the show ending in 2013, but numerous quality sources saying 2011. I put in a link from Reuters in the main article opening to clarify a bit. Just thought I'd give you the heads up since we had a brief discussion last month about it. :) Jmlk17 21:25, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your response to "Gummy Dummy" on the BDSM talk section.[edit]

"From one point of view you could say; Society has been fetishizing violence for a very long time now, this could simply be seen as the logical conclusion. Similar to the extreme popularity of slasher movies."

Regarding actual experience with practitioners of BDSM, I'd say the motives are more multi-factorial (and not all are enigmatically psychological.)

For example, I once enquired a female submissive as to why she enjoyed being dominated. She delineated that it was simply due to the fact she had always "been in control" throughout her life, therefore BDSM allowed her to periodically inhabit an outlet in which she "didn’t have to make the decisions”.

A brief conclusion, but still (I think) intriguing none the less.

In regards to Gummy, I always tend to be angered by the correlation of “psychology” and “BDSM“, simply because I believe it's often perpetrated out of a reactionary fear or conjectured misunderstanding towards the practice; pathologization.

It’s disheartening when practitioners are regarded as mentally sick etc. as it in fact takes great mental stability/trust to engage in acts of regulated BDSM. The psychology is interesting, but most practitioners I’ve met are imaginative and/or intelligent people, who simply admire more creativity in stimulation; sexual or otherwise.User:LLLookAtYouHacker (talk) 11:48, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Collaboration of Punks[edit]

HEY HO, LET'S GO!!!

Punk rockers—As you know, the Ramones are undeniably the first punk rock band, so it is vital to this genre that we collaborate to improve their scope! So far, I have worked on the band's first three albums, and it would be awesome if all the punks on Wiki would aid in expanding/cleaning the Ramones articles. You can see my progress here.
Please fellow fans, do this for the old-school punk.

If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved. This would be a tremendous help to Wikipedia and coverage of LGBT culture and history. Thanks for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions! --Another Believer (Talk) 16:42, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
