Re. WDAS Page

[edit]

As you have noticed, someone, we only have an IP, tried to complete the history for the WDAS page. This user's writing style lacks context (this was a critical/financial _______ is not suitable). I think the timeline we had to break up the history was right because decades aren't the best way to organize the history of an organization like WDAS. I'll post some of the completed sections (Move to CG and Lasseter/Catmull) that I've worked on to the rewrite page. Let me know what you think.

WP:MOS on trans women

[edit]

Where in the WP:MOS does it address the gender appropriateness of a transsexual? I don't see it mentioned at all. I have no issue with sex changes or gender identity issues, but the Alexis Reich article becomes very confusing when feminine pronouns are used with someone who was a man at the time the article refers to. It appears, by looking at edit histories, that I am not the only one who has seen this as confusing. It would only make sense that one refers to the biological gender identified at the time the event happened--When Reich is John Mark Karr, Reich is a "he", and when Reich is Alexis Reich, Reich is a "she".

Logging in

[edit]

(1) You have asked me several times to log in. I have heard and replied to your requests. Further such requests are not needed. I understand that you would prefer that I log in.

(2) Editors are not required to log in to make edits.

(3) Because I have a dynamic IP address, it changes often, but the first numbers are always "99.192". I make a point of indicating where I am the same person who made a previous edit in the same discussion or on the same page with a different IP address signature by using an "(=99.192...)" style indicator. Knowing which edits are mine is not difficult to determine.

(4) Wikipedia does have policies against people making edits using different logged in names or different IP addresses, but only when it is done to deceive other editors. You can have two different logged in names if you like, one solely to edit articles on classical music and one solely to edit articles on the American interstate highway system. Making edits with different IP addresses is similarly permitted provided there is no attempt to deceive. By indicating where I am the same editor as one who made previous edits in the same conversation, I clearly am not trying to deceive. I am doing the opposite.

(5) You have said you want me to log in "so that [my] edits will be kept together." But edits are not kept together by logging in, only a person's edit history is. In my experience, the only reason people have for wanting to know about my edit history is when they want to make a discussion personal rather than about the subject at hand. If I made edits 6 months ago to update the filmography of Meryl Streep, that is immaterial to the discussion here and so it is odd that you would care about it. If it is important to you to know something about my past editing, you can always ask. But expect my first reply might be: "Why does it matter to you?"

(6) If it is really very important to you to keep a list of all of my edits on the current discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style, just search the page for all instances of 99.192, click in the IP address, and you will get the lists. You can then copy and paste the information from those pages onto a sub-page on your own user page that you can create for yourself. But why you need to have a master list of all my edits is beyond my understanding.... Unless you want to stalk or harass me.... Which is one more reason not to want to log in. 99.192.67.148 (talk) 16:29, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Male to female

[edit]
Hello, I wanted to discuss this with you here. I assume you are a resonable person. My question to you is, do you understand the difference between gender and sex as I have described it to you? I have endeavored to make it as simple as possible. Sex is biologically based, it is the body, the genitals and the secondary sex characteristics. Right? Gender is the social construct of being man or woman. It is in the mind. Transsexual minds are wired differently than cisgender minds. Most people have a congruence between the two. They have a male body and they have a man's mind, or they have a female body and a woman's mind. It is all very straightforward for them. They give it not a second thought. But transgender individuals find that there is a disparity between their body and their mind. Those male bodied may feel that they are more like the women and girls around them, that their thoughts and feelings align more with the thoughts and feelings of a female. Transsexuals report this feelig very early in life, under 7 years old, usually around the time of the first memories. This causes a horrible condition that can only be cured with medical intervention. To treat the condition, the body is made to correspond to the person's gender. Hormonal intervention and surgeries allow the individual to have the body that matchess their gender. Then, they are congruent, a woman in a female body.
There is really no problem with the term male to female. What test do you propose so that I might prove it to you? Would you want to leave the term there if it were reasonable and properly the way to describe the condition of transsexuality? I ask you to consider what I am saying to you and to look into the matter for yourself. If you do, you will find that my description is very close if not exactly what medical professionals would say on the matter. Let's settle this as reasonable adults.

Transwoman

[edit]

I just wanted to point out that transwoman is most often one word. Once again I am annoyed by your trivial edits, because it seems that you WANT there to be confusion. 'trans' is not a word by itself. Actually, using it that way violates key rules itself. Yet, you say that it MUST be used that way. That is false. Once again, you are misinformed. I am just baffled.

hyperbolic tilings with Euclidean polygons

[edit]

(Many months late...) Actually, it's not a completely mistaken assumption. Some hyperbolic tilings like {3,7} or {5,4} can be made this way, but that concentrates all the curvature at the vertices of the tiling. Double sharp (talk) 15:37, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. I added an explanation on the talk page as to why not Indiana and Michigan (or Illinois, for that matter). There is currently nothing in the article (other than listing definitions that include them) relating to any of those states. Ohio seemed like a borderline case, since the only information in the article that is inclusive of Ohio is about Federal Prisons. If it were up to me, I would subtract out any Federal Prisons in Ohio for the figures in the article, but I'm sure that would result in someone crying about WP:OR.

What do you think about Birmingham City (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) ? It currently redirects to a soccer team, but this is a different target than City of Birmingham (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) redirects to. As you implemented a solution to the flag requiring disambiguation problem, I thought I'd ask your opinion. There are quite a few incoming links on this one though. My personal view is that "Birmingham City" should redirect to Birmingham (disambiguation). -- 70.50.151.11 (talk) 23:43, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Chemists call this stuff carbon tetraiodide, that is the reason the article was so entitled. There probably are rules of grammar that argue that chemists should spell things differently, I understand. A search of our databases will reveal that carbon tetriodide is not used by chemists or anyone for that matter. If you think that this or other articles should be renamed and you are not a chemist, it would be a good idea to leave a note on the Talk page or something like that. --Smokefoot (talk) 17:29, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IPv6 hextet

[edit]

Due to your modification, the sentence

The exact term for 16 bits should be sexdecet, directly related to the term octet. Because it is harder to pronounce, the short form "hextet" is used.

doesn't make sense anymore. Please read the Internet Draft to see where the word hexadecatet comes from:

"hexadectet" is directly derived from IPv4's "octet", thus technically correct and convenient to get used to. Because it is harder to pronounce, the short form "hextet" is used.

It is also used to prevent confusion with sextet, which is used to e.g. indicate a music combo.

Please review your changes in the hextet page to make the sentence consistent again.

Hey Georgia guy! Were you able to see how a(n)=(n-1)! for n>1.

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Transition of Caitlyn Jenner. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. -- WV 00:22, 10 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Planck Temperature

[edit]

Hello. The Planck temperature is not defined as the largest possible measurable temperature, nor is the Planck length and the Planck time defined as the smallest measurable units. The Planck unit system is based on 5 universal constants and the rest of the units are simply derived from these definitions. Most of them have no obvious physical significance other than making calculations easier by removing the need for constants. In some (but not all) cases, the Planck units represent a scale where quantum mechanical effects are expected to overtake the classical physics and what happens at these scales are hard to predict. More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_length, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_time

As your entire addition is completely incorrect and misleading I decided to revert it. There is not much to explain in terms of the removal, as the definitions of Planck length and Planck time are given on their respective pages and is not controversial at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MatsT (talkcontribs) 20:25, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain that the Planck units are not the smallest possible units of length and time?? Feel free to give me an example of a real-world use of a smaller unit in whatever way you can.
There no real-world uses of lengths anywhere near the scale of the Planck length, so I can not. From the page on Planck length:
"There is currently no proven physical significance of the Planck length; it is, however, a topic of theoretical research. Since the Planck length is so many orders of magnitude smaller than any current instrument could possibly measure, there is no way of examining it directly. According to the generalized uncertainty principle (a concept from speculative models of quantum gravity), the Planck length is, in principle, within a factor of 10, the shortest measurable length – and no theoretically known improvement in measurement instruments could change that."
This is not what we are talking about or what your addition claimed though. It claims that the Planck length is defined as the smallest possible unit which is false. It's defined as:
where is the speed of light in a vacuum, G is the gravitational constant, and ħ is the reduced Planck constant.

Hello Georgia guy, I do have objections against drive-by changes in articles for the sake of being politically correct, and the usage of mere essays like WP:GNL to support them. Much like "mankind", "man-made" is a perfectly valid term in modern English - or maybe it would be more fair to say, that the term's usage is generally accepted but under discussion by some modern authors and feminists.

Your draft article, Draft:Android Oreo

[edit]

Hello, Georgia guy. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Android Oreo".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

one of the few

WP:PEACOCK

So let's actually look at this. Currently, 22 teams in MLS and seven use "FC" in their title.
  1. Atlanta United FC
  2. FC Dallas
  3. Minnesota United FC
  4. New York City FC
  5. New York Red Bulls
  6. Seattle Sounders FC
  7. Toronto FC
  8. Vancouver Whitecaps FC
That's 32% of teams, which would be increased to 35% when LA enters, assuming that they keep FC in their name. And it would increase to 37.5 if Beckham's Miami team joins and keeps the current name. How is nearly a third "few"?
Then you have to add the United Soccer League teams, 16 of 30 teams, which is 53%. Although only two of the five upcoming expansion teams use FC.
Then you have to add the North American Soccer League teams, 4 of 8 teams, which is 50%.
And then there are third- and fourth-division teams that use FC or some variation. Few is not only not correct, it's WP:OR.
Finally, WP:TRIVIA.
Unless you can find a source for this, don't add it back. Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:26, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your Super Mario Bros. 2 (disambiguation) revision

[edit]

Regarding your revision on Super Mario Bros. 2 (disambiguation), “North American” does not imply that the game takes place in North America. A North American game is a game made in North America. In comparison, a Japanese film is a film made in Japan, and a European comic book is a comic book made in Europe.

“North American” is an important distinction here since initially, the game was exclusive to North America, and it was only made since the Western audience was deemed not ready for the original, Japanese sequel to Super Mario Bros. with the same name.

Also, “a game commonly considered a sequel” isn’t needed; the game was the (North American) sequel to Super Mario Bros.. Interqwark talk contribs 22:41, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Even if the IOC didn't go by that they would still be the 32nd Summer Olympics as the IOC Recognizes 1916, 1940, & 1944 as Olympic years. We should be going by what the Organization which controls it, wants to call it, not what we want to call it. The IOC has decided they will be called the 2020 Summer Olympics.

Your recent editing history at Trans woman shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

List of polygons

[edit]

Check the hundreds in the column for Greek cardinals and ordinals in the very first table of the article, i.e. List_of_polygons#Greek_numbers.
Or even a Greek-English lexicon...
Then compare to the relevant ones in the third and fourth table.
See any problem, any differences?!?!? The "Naming Polygons". The Math Forum. Drexel University ref is not a ref on Greek language (let alone an authoritative source); they simply created ("worked out") a naming system based on Greek but not necessarily actual Greek, ancient or modern.
The hundreds parts is simply not actual Greek, number system or even language at parts. At least not one I'm aware of; perhaps, e.g., in some obscure geometric treatise of late antiquity some fellow Greek got bored with having to use proper (very long) names for hundreds and decided to shorten/alter them and the drexel university people (or whoever) based their system on that dude's innovation. That's not impossible. But if something like that is to be the case then if there is a fact/cn template to be added is not on my additions/clarifications but on parts where e.g. hectogonon(-on), dodecacontagon(-on), dihectagon(-on) are presented not as barbarisms but as proper Greek.
In any case I haven't removed anything. Thanatos|talk|contributions 23:44, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article B major (person) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced, and can't find any sources to indicate notability. All original research and probable conflict of interest.

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. ~EdGl talk 21:42, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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 B major (person) 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 band or musician that does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. ~ GB fan 18:54, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. — 𝐆𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐚  01:00, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Meet you in the bar?

Having seen your edit summary I did seriously wonder for a split second whether it was going to be a musicians/drinking joke! But, actually, good point and thank you. I wonder why that is? Cheers (hic!) DBaK (talk) 20:50, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please reply here, not on my talk page

[edit]

Hi. I believe that U were the one who nominated windows 10 version history back in June 2018, right? U stated that the reason for the discussion is due to the fact that the page is getting lenngthier over time. @ the time of nomination, the page size was 245,232 bytes as of this revision. My question is, does the size of the page still matter nowadays? I am asking this because I made an WP:ER @ the talk page. However, despite my efforts convincing editors that my modifications have no visual changes and that it is best to prevent those numbers getting multiplied monthly, I have been reported @ wikipedia:administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Block evasion at Talk:Windows 10 version history. What do we do now? Please help.197.238.156.92 (talk) 23:28, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
