Welcome[edit]

Is the welcome message automatic? Brockert 00:26, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Nope, but there are ready-made user greetings at Wikipedia:Standard user greetings. I left a longer reply on your talk page. --Alex S 01:09, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Please stop this ill person flooding my page[edit]

Hello dear. You are a wiki admin and I need your help. Can you explain about this changes to my page? [Insulting, abusing and vandaling language!] He is flooding page Kourosh ziabari with under-18 langauge all time and I don't know what to do 70.52.6.147 He uses many IPs and Wiki IDs and I don't know what to do. 70.52.6.147 is his last IP. and also visit this comparation page that shows the changes of main page to the insulting content [1]

User sig[edit]

I played a while before I settled on a signature I liked. Easiest thing to remember is that your setting in your profile is added into your signature like this: [[User:Alex S|(your signature)]] so you can spread it out like [[User:Alex S|Ale]][[User Talk:Alex S|x]][[User:Alex S| S]]. (the parts in green are what go in your Preferences in the signature box. I want to contribute a tenis biographies section i have a username called Christopherhi, leave me a message about whether i can or not

It comes out like this: Alex S (although since a page cannot link to itself you can't see the link from "x" to your talk page.)

For adding your signature to your comments use: ~~~ and for adding both your signature and the current date use: ~~~~. Hope this helps - Tεxτurε 04:11, 8 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Let's see if this works. --Αλεξ Σ 04:46, 8 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Value problems[edit]

Why the hell did you modify my value modifications? Why are you calling them 'dumb'?? Are you crazy or something? There's no such thing as dumb, you think that you're smarter then me? Don't sabotage my information, it is useful to people who want to know, you're a close minded individual and it makes you whatever you call 'dumb'. Here is my mature message: FUCK YOU! SON OF A BITCH, I DONT CARE IF IM BEING BANNED OR NOT, IT WONT CHANGE YOUR STATE OF MORONITY! FUCKING MORON!

First of all, of course I don't want to ban you (unless you vandalize). I'd just like it if you could tone down your anger a little bit and also leave your message under a header at the bottom of the page (which I did for you, hope that's OK). Anyways, I'm not really sure what you're talking about. I did do some work the page value, but I never called anything dumb. I did use the word "dump" in one of my changes summaries – check the edit history here – but I don't believe that I called anything dumb. Another thing that I don't understand is what you thing I "sabotaged" - I kept the "types of values" section – you were the one to delete it. If you would please tell me exactly what I did wrong and what I called dumb, I'm sure we can work this out. --Αλεξ Σ 14:40, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Alternative medicine page protection[edit]

I have agreed, as well as posted a few of my comments on talk:alternative medicine. I can live with alternative medicine being protected exactly the way it is for several weeks. I hope RK will agree, too. -- John Gohde, aka Mr-Natural-Health 19:43, 11 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I think several weeks is excessive. The page protection should be removed as soon as possible. And also, I happened to protect it right after your revert, so it's not surprising that you'd agree with the version. I'm just asking oyu to be open minded about what RK will have to say. Anyways, happy editing. Αλεξ Σ 19:48, 11 Apr 2004 (UTC)

AMA co-ordinator election is now on[edit]

You may now vote for user:Ed_Poor or user:Alex756 in the first ever AMA co-ordinator election. Follow the instructions on Wikipedia:AMA Coordinator Election Procedure for more details.

AMA members who wish to abstain from voting must also e-mail wikipedia_ama_voting@yahoo.co.uk with notice of that intent.

To clarify anything before voting, ask user_talk:Zanimum or user_talk:Jwrosenzweig on their talk pages.

AMA members have until April 30, at 11:00:00 EST to vote. -- user:zanimum

Great! --Αλεξ Σ 01:44, 17 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Your vote has been counted. Jwrosenzweig 15:48, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)

spell check[edit]

No worries about spelling. I prefer to fix others' work anyways, rather than developing my own new nodes. I'm used to e2's less stringent neutrality and style requirements. Anyways, here's a possible correction to your user page: http://www.pseudodictionary.com/undoubtably -- McCart42 (need to set up my sig)

Didn't I spell it right on my user page? I think so... But if you spot a spelling error, please feel free to correct it. --Αλεξ Σ 01:40, 16 Jun 2004 (UTC)

It's not so much that it's spelled wrong -- it's that undoubtedly is the only actual word, but "undoubtably" is a pseudo-word with a different meaning. So really, you can use either one. I just figured I'd show you the difference. -- McCart42

Thanks! --Αλεξ Σ 01:31, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Request for AMA assistance[edit]

We have received an anonymous request for AMA assistance from an IP address, I have directed that individual to contact me if they wish not to create a Wikipedia account. If you are interested in helping please let me know and if I hear from this individual I will try and put you in contact. See Wikipedia:AMA Requests for Assistance. Thank you. — © Alex756 03:00, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Regarding your comment that this is not a "dispute" I think the goal of AMA members is to help an individual understand the system, not to necessarily "represent" them in an official capacity, but also to lend a guiding hand, communicate with them and try to explain the system to them. Even if someone comes to us with what looks to be an accuracy problem they deserve our help in undstanding what kind of situation they are in. We do not refuse to help someone because they are confused? That would defeat the purpose of our organization, wouldn't it? — © Alex756 00:40, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Adils[edit]

Some time back I was working on an article on a semi-mythical Swedish king named Adils. For some time you locked the page. May I just ask why? I am only curious. Some of the information may have sounded odd, but it was taken from an early 20th century Swedish encyclopedia.--Wiglaf 21:42, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Unicode in article headings[edit]

I tried to use capital D with stroke (not capital Eth in the article title for the Vietnamese [[Dong (currency)|đong currency, but it does not seem to have worked. What did I do wrong? Or is Unicode not allowed in article titles? Evertype 16:23, 2004 Aug 3 (UTC)

Jimbo Visit[edit]

I will be at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign 23 October, 2004, speaking at the ACM Reflections | Projections Conference 2004 -

This conference runs from 22. - 24. October 2004; it would be fantastic to have a Wikipedia booth, if I can get volunteers for it.

Do you think you could come? Jimbo Wales 16:29, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Hi Alex,

Way back in March you turned the article Quaker views of sexuality into a redirect to Sexual morality, which seems odd since that article doesn't appear to have anything to say about Quakers. On the otherhand the original article looks relatively narrow. Was there some sort of general POV cleanup going on at the time? -- Solipsist 09:13, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Not POV; just reorganization. In that page (Quaker views of sexuality), the content was completely about homosexuality. What I did was move the content to Quaker views of homosexuality. That page is part of a series of articles on Christianity and homosexuality, which is in turn part of a series of articles on religion on homosexuality. Since for the sexual morality page the content isn't broken down into specific pages for each religion, I thought the best thing would be to simply redirect, so that if a Quaker-sexuality expert began working on Wikipedia, he'd know where to go. If begun, Quaker views of sexuality would obviously include a link to Quaker views of homosexuality. If you think it's best done differently, though, go ahead. --Αλεξ Σ 13:15, Oct 2, 2004 (UTC)

Image uploading error[edit]

I uploaded an image by the wrong name; Staind_Dyfunction.jpg (link), rather than Staind_Dysfunction.jpg. I can't move pages under the Image: namespace, and the error page said to contact an administrator. If it's important, would you please move the image? Thank you! :) -Wild Bill 01:18, Oct 7, 2004 (UTC)

translation[edit]

There is an enormous backlog at Wikipedia:Translation into English#French-to-English, more than for all other languages combined. I see you are signed up at Wikipedia:Translators_available#French-to-English. Would you be at all interested in taking on one of these articles? (Full disclosure: this is a bit of a "mass mailing", I'm working my way down the whole list of French-to-English translators.) -- Jmabel 00:05, Oct 10, 2004 (UTC)

Dude, your pic...[edit]

Did you relize that the picture is warning tour guides not to talk about the Garden or any other historical artifact inside the church?

Yes... but the irony lies in the fact that there are two "possible" meanings: "No explainations about the church" and "No explainations about life, morality, etc." inside the church. --Αλεξ Σ 16:52, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)

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 1000 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)[[]] 15:05, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)

RFC pages on VfD[edit]

Should RFC pages be placed on VfD to be deleted? I'm considering removing Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Slrubenstein, Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Jwrosenzweig and Wikipedia:Requests for comment/John Kenney from WP:VFD. Each of them was listed by CheeseDreams. Your comments on whether I should do this would be appreciated. - Ta bu shi da yu 03:15, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Call for AMA election[edit]

AMA Member Advocate,

There's a poll currently in the AMA Homepage about making a new AMA Coordinator election. Please, cast your vote there (though it's not mandatory). Any comments you have about this, write it on the AMA Homepage talk page. Cheers, --Neigel von Teighen 18:43, 4 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Call for Membership Meeting[edit]

As AMA Coordinator I am requesting that suggestions be placed on Wikipedia:AMA Membership Meeting plans for our first membership meeting, to be held in the near future, (hopefully before any election occurs.) Since we have never had any kind of "official" meeting we need to discuss how this will occur (i.e. Wiki pages or IRC channel), how it will be structured (i.e. meeting agenda) and if there will be any "chair" to supervise the meeting and meeting "secretary" to write up minutes or keep some kind of official record of what transpires. Thanks in advance for your input and your continued work as an advocate. — © Alex756 19:31, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Request for advocacy[edit]

I submitted a request for advocacy but was unable to re-login to my username. The username would have been 'whitehorse' (or whitehorse67). Apologies. I had to resort to setting up a new account as I couldn't log in. My username is this one - whitehorse1. The request was sent by email (via Wikipedia). Could you confirm if you received my email; if not I can resend? --whitehorse1 22:11, 10 January 2004 (UTC)[reply]

I'm very sorry about this, but I haven't been using Wikipedia for a while and, in the interim, my email address changed. If you're still interested in having me as an advocate, feel free to resend your email (through Wikipedia), otherwise, best of luck to your cause! --Αλεξ Σ 15:04, Jan 16, 2005 (UTC)

Picture Karlsruhe[edit]

Hi Alex,

I contributed an image to the entry "Karlsruhe", which shows the castle of Karlsruhe at night. I just forgot to reduce the size before uploading it. Could you make it smaller (600x800 or so) or remove it so I can upload the picture again?

Thanks

Sutton Hoo Purse Cover[edit]

Hi Alex, could you enter a source and copyright tag for this image. I ask because I spent a lot of time searching the net for public domain images of Sutton Hoo treasure and eventually had to email someone to ask their permission. Images of real objects are by default copyrighted. Thanks. --Stbalbach 02:47, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC) Image:Sutton Hoo Purse Cover.jpg

Oops - my mistake. I assumed that because the object was so old, a picture of it would be public domain. Obviously not. I simply took the picture from[2] and put it into Wikipedia. Since I don't know much about copyright law, tell me what to do - should I delete the picture or ask the website owner for permission to use it? -Αλεξ Σ 17:02, Mar 7, 2005 (UTC)
Hi Alex, going to the Sewanee website, click on "About" then "Image Gallary FAQ" it says
1. Who may use the Humanities Image Galleries?
Because of copyrights, only students and staff on the Domain may use the Image Galleries.
I would recommend either contacting them to release it in to the public domain, or to delete it from Wikipedia (one way to do this is put a copyright violation tag on the image page and it will get deleted eventually). Also remove it from the Sutto Hoo page right away. Images of old pictures or paintings can be uploaded under the {PD-art} tag. Stbalbach 00:05, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Deleted. Thanks for pointing that out to me. --Αλεξ Σ 16:51, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)

Need Help[edit]

Dear Alex,

You say you have experience with "tough-headed" Wikipedians.

I use Wikipedia fairly regularly for getting information, since it is the most easily accessible online encyclopedia. The first time I ran across an article that seemed incredibly inaccurate, I did not know anything about vandalism, POV, etc. problems in Wikipedia (apparently they must not be too common). The article I am speaking of relates to the PKK, which is a Kurdish Separatist Terrorist group that operates in the Kurdish region of Turkey.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKK

A user named CoolCat "polices" the article, i.e., he makes sure that any mention of the aims of the PKK or the issue of Kurdish independence is not included in the article and that the article includes only (very poorly written - I don't think English is his first language) information about the terrorist activities of the PKK, including some unconfirmed accusations of the Turkish Government regarding its number of victims, lots of highly opinionated statements (it has accomplished nothing except death) and links to gruesome images (no English explanations provided). If anyone tries to go in and make the article less one-sided, CoolCat reverts the edits and accuses said person of vandalism.

I have indeed looked at Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, and was particularly struck when Moderators encouraged two users to basically "work things out" on their own when one user was quite obviously launching vitriolic assaults/legal threats against the other, who was just being reasonable. I don't want to put myself in this kind of position with CoolCat, a lot of people have posted comments under the 'discussion' for the PKK page that agree that the page essentially sounds like Turkish Government Propaganda and not like a neutral article and so I hope that some sort of community consensus can be reached to restore the PKK article to a neutral, informative form written in good English and protect it from editing (or "policing") by CoolCat.

I would like to emphasize that I strongly support mentioning PKK atrocities in the article, as well as the fact that the EU and other authorities consider it a terrorist organization, but only if atrocities committed by the Turkish Army in Kurdistan are mentioned as well, as well as neutral information regarding the issue of Kurdish independence from Turkey and the self-determination goals of the PKK.

If you could give me some advice as to how this could best be accomplished, I would be very grateful.

Research project on wiki contributors[edit]

Hello-

I am aware that this is not the typical message usually posted, so I would like to apologize and ask for your kind understanding. I am a PhD student at Syracuse University School of Information Studies. My advisor and I are working on a research project on contributors to Wikis. This project received Institutional Review Board Approval number 05048. I would like to have a brief email dialog with you about your experience as a wikipedia contibutor. Please respond to this posting or send me an email at wikiresearch@hotmail.com, if you would be willing to answer a couple of quick questions. I would like to assure you that your comments will remain confidential.

Best regards, -Isabelle Fagnot

Possible impostors[edit]

I've been doing some impostor hunting lately, and you got the following hits: AlexS (talkcontribs), Alexs (talkcontribs). Of course, this may be nothing, but I thought I would let you know. – ClockworkSoul 02:42, 11 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Bacon's Rebellion[edit]

I have listed Bacon's Rebellion as a copyvio; it appears to come from [3], which claims copyright. I'm new at this (the copyvio posting, that is) but I thought I should give you a heads up, in case you don't have the page on your watchlist. I probably should have contacted you first? -- Mwanner 19:03, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia's article was derived from [4], which is a National Park Service web site. [5] is a verbatim copy of that source. While the NPS site is a federal web site, and the contents are therefore arguably in the public domain, specific authors are credited. It is intellectually dishonest not to credit them as a source for the article, but I do not think it is technically a copyright violation. At least the Wikipedia article included a link to the NPS web site. The other site did not even do that much. olderwiser 21:11, May 15, 2005 (UTC)
Based on your contribution history I knew something had to be wrong-- I'm glad Bkonrad found what I did not. I have removed the copyvio, and may try to work on a rewrite. Mwanner 22:23, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Edgar Allan Poe graffiti[edit]

There is some graffiti on the Edgar Allan Poe page. I tried to edit it out but it doesn't show up in the edit page. Phrases such as "he burns in hell now" and "he was gay and a homo" are dispersed throught the article. I figured I can't remove it because I'm not register hence this message.

New Testament Greek[edit]

Hi Alex,


I am trying to find out if anyone or perhaps you can direct me to someone who can tell me which is the correct, true to the greek translation of the Greek New Testament.

Accuracy is important in respect to authenticity, it appears that there can be many different choices in translating the greek into english so that begs the question, who is correct, and who is way off?

Thanks for your time.

email me with these answers at phatguy_50501@hotmail or yahoo.com plese

Thanks for uploading Image:Peter Arshinov.bmp. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Please add a tag to let us know its copyright status. (If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know on the image description page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have tagged them, too. Note that any unsourced and untagged imaged will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much. --Sherool 17:09, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

no luck trying to edit a page[edit]

I wanted to add Charles Williams' novel "Descent into Hell" (1937) to the list of books about doppelgangers, but I am too computer illiterate to figure out the instructions on how to edit a page. There is a Wikipedia page on Charles Williams which should be linked to this reference, if it is added. I left a request on the Discussion panel of the doppelganger article for someone to do this for me, but I don't know if anyone will. Can you? Thanks. Helen Stanbro (h_stanbro@yahoo.com)

username[edit]

I followed your advice and created a Username for myself. I chose not to use my real last name just to avoid potential complications--I used to be on a cancer newsgroup where I looked up medical information for people and some of them became quite a nuisance, so I have learned to be more cautious about giving out my real name (too easy to find in a small town). So anyway, it is "Helen Astborn."

Thank you for your listing of the places to find editing information. I had found some of them (not all) after much searching around, but some of them are still a bit technical for a person who does not do a lot of webpage work. Since all I had wanted to do was add two literary references to a list, it would have been nice to have an instruction all in one place about how to mark the titles and internal links so they would format properly. Even hopping through all the Guidelines I have still not found a place that succintly says what to put in square brackets and what to put in double quotation marks to create things that will show up underlined or in the blue "clickable" Link format---I had to just copy previous entries and hope it came out right.

Sometime I hope to have time to copy out the instruction pages and study them, but since I am usually pressed for time, I don't think it will be anytime soon!

Thanks for taking such kind interest, Helen

Ah, how embarrassing. I've forgotten my wikipedia password. This is the first time I've tried the "e-mail new password" thingy. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. (I don't remember if I ever entered my email address in ... or perhaps I did but mis-typed it).

I suppose I could just make up a new user account ... but that seems so wasteful.
