At projective harmonic conjugates you have inserted the alternative "Pappus harmonic theorem" without reference. We would welcome this contribution with reference, since it would help clarify the history of some ideas in mathematics such as inversive geometry. The Pappus chain shows there may be reason for your assertion of the Pappus harmonic theorem as that topic also relates to inversive geometry, but without a reference this assertion is just that. Please supply a reference retract the assertion. Rgdboer ( talk) 20:43, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Cootie Willaims and His Orchestra 1941-44, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from an implausible typo.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you believe that there is a reason to keep the redirect, you can request that
administrators wait a while before deleting it. To do this, affix the template {{

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Bud Powell 57 (album cover).jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Thanks for uploading File:Frank Socolow (William P Gottlieb) 300x315.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

The article Robbie Best has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

Hi Dickdock. I just wanted to inquire about your recent revert of my minor edit to the John Kennedy Toole page, which was a bit puzzling. Yes, the Pulitzer is referenced later in the article. But as the primary proof (and proof in itself) of his notability, I thought it should be referenced in the first stanza. I'm surprised that you apparently disagree, and I think that precedents in other pages support my point. When I did some spot checks at [Category:Pulitzer_Prize_winners], I saw that the first three entries (all the "As" in the alphabetical list) mention the Pulitzer prize in the first or second sentence. Also, at least one of them specifically calls the subject "Pulitzer-prize winning", so I'm not sure how the construction is "Unusual". Any insight as to your thinking here?

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Fred Johnston (writer), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Monégasque and Michael Collins ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Stop PoV pushing just because YOU don't like the term and find it controversial. The term British Isles is *not* used for any purpose other than GEOGRAPHICAL purposes by almost everyone in the UK and elsewhere. This rather sad and deluded agenda the Irish and their plastic paddy Irish-American cousins like to push is nothing but Anglophobia to make the Brits seem like neo-imperialists. Got news for you buddy, we owe the Irish nothing and I have no guilt. Ta.-- 85.211.120.118 ( talk) 02:06, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
... is the article title, and as long as it remains so there is no good reason to circumvent it other articles. If you have a problem with the term, it is at the British Isles page that you should be trying to change it, not at the unrelated Trinity College, Dublin article. You have also broken WP:3RR. You should re-revert, or I'll request administrator intervention. Thanks. — Jon C. ॐ 08:28, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Trinity College, Dublin. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Michael Greiner 01:57, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
For sorting out my lefts from rights on the Ghent altarpiece. When I give people directions it drives them nuts - I'm seriously dyslexic in that regards. Also thanks for sorting out the virgins & Dorothy is in the sources so a good addition there. I think MM is considered a martyr, but still reading about that section and it can be sorted later.

Bowie being introduced to Hendrix (as an unknown) is "random unintegrated datum"? I don't agree, but rather than tit for tat editorial changes, I'm open to hearing your detailed views on this. Thank you Matthew.hartington ( talk) 20:35, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
"On May 7 1967 at a Saville Theatre concert, Bowie was introduced to Jimi Hendrix backstage by his musician friend, Billy Ritchie. The meeting does not seem to have changed his mind about Hendrix’s performance, as he then wrote a negative review, calling Hendrix “the tentacle-headed flower show from Greenwich village”, describing his playing as “the emotion-filled E chord of Mr H”. The piece caused a stir, and was printed in Record Mirror, complete with photograph of the then-unknown future Superstar. Even at this early stage, it seemed that Bowie had a gift for obtaining publicity". Matthew.hartington ( talk) 07:32, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Kay Swift (from kayswift.com).jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Stefan2 ( talk) 21:04, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
