Hi G S Palmer! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to List of Doctor Who universe creatures and aliens (Q–Z) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
Thanks, BracketBot ( talk) 17:31, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

This series (being made in 2014) of Doctor Who is being made on video and not on film. There is a distinction. For a series that has so far employed both methods extensively, it is important to make that distinction. For someone to report that "Filming has begun on the new series" is simply inaccurate.
Worse than that, to revert an edit that corrects this to "Recording" is nonsensical, especially when done with some such justification as "oh well it's a euphemism for recording". No it isn't. It's at best what lazy or uninformed people use to refer to the process when they either don't know the difference or don't think the distinction is important. Even if an edit changing "filming" to "recording" is seen as nit-picky or pedantic, to change it back is just increasing the inaccuracy for no benefit. Please desist.

I patrolled your page. I went through the enormously-backlogged list of newly-created pages and confirmed that your page was okay: not spam, not an attack page, not a copyright violation, not any of the other reasons for which I would delete someone's page without asking. Then I clicked "patrolled" to remove it from the list of "pages that have not yet been patrolled", and moved on to the next entry. That's all. DS ( talk) 01:47, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
Hi the reason for the redirection was so that when on these articles
Warriors of Kudlak
The White Wolf
Wraith World
clicking
Uvodni would bring you to the right section, if the reader is not familiar with this creature then this would surely help. Thanks

I declined the speedy deletion of this article because it wasn't obviously a hoax to me. (I also moved the article to the more appropriate title Kamie Jimmie King.) It's possible that the subject (who is apparently also the author) is a notable media personality in his home country. It is also possible that he is a non-notable media personality there. If you believe the article merits deletion, I recommend taking it to WP:AFD instead. -- Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:07, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
Hi, I saw your edit commentary for List of Doctor Who serials, dated March 5th, 2014. Q3 and Q4 stand for the third and fourth quarter of the year. "Norther autumn" stands for the months of autumn in the northern hemisphere (September - November), indicating the difference with the "southern autumn" (March - May). So it was not vandalism. :) Bubbly ( talk) 01:39, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed that you restored a warning on Citytechcommunications' talk page, with an admonishment that they shouldn't blank their own talk page. That isn't really necessary, as talk page guidelines say that users are allowed to remove warnings from their talk pages, since the warnings are still visible in the page history. Removing a warning is proof that the user has read it, which is all we really require of a warned user. Novusuna talk 22:43, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

May I ask why you chose to report me, rather than continue the discussion on the article? If you had simply discussed the issue on the discussion page, as well as following official Wikipedia Policy, then there would be no problem. 41.132.179.212 ( talk) 19:12, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
Please read the sections WP:V and WP:RS. You stated that you know what "RS" means. But clearly you have not read it properly, just as you haven;t actually read the article that you keep blanket-reverting, reinstating material that does not pass WP:RS. 41.132.49.185 ( talk) 15:28, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
I see that you have now reached three reverts on Whoniverse and want to caution you not to revert again. Doing so will almost certainly lead to a WP:BLOCK. Even if you feel the article is in the "wrong version", you are better served by entering discussion with uninvolved contributors. The IP with whom you are edit-warring has filed a report at Wikipedia:No original research/Noticeboard#Whoniverse - I would recommend you engage there and attempt to reach a clear consensus before editing further. -- Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:59, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

. However, you should read the
guide to appealing blocks first.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:06, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
Please do not remove tags and templates from articles without first discussing it on the talk page, and coming to an agreement with other users. Those tags and templates are there for a reason. It is not your place to just remove them. It is considered vandalism.
Please do not remove Reliably Sourced sections from articles. It is considered vandalism. 41.132.48.255 ( talk) 14:22, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
"Under Wikipedia's neutral point of view (NPOV) policy, articles must present differing viewpoints on the subject matter fairly, proportionately, and without bias. Articles should include both positive and negative viewpoints from reliable sources, without giving undue weight to particular viewpoints, either negative or positive. The policy of verifiability requires attributing all viewpoints to reliable, published sources, with appropriate citations. Wikipedia's policy against original research, in addition to the NPOV requirement, forbids editors from favoring their own point of view."
And "Editors should avoid having a separate section in an article devoted to criticism, controversies, or the like because these sections call undue attention to negative viewpoints. Instead, articles should present positive and negative viewpoints from reliable sources together, fairly, proportionately, and without bias." means it should be moved into the main body of text. 41.132.48.255 ( talk) 04:30, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
If you nominate something for AfD, it is customary to tell people who have made edits on the article about its status. Otherwise they may never know. I have left messages on their discussion pages. 41.132.48.255 ( talk) 06:02, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi. You are relatively new here and may not be aware yet, but edits like this constitute canvassing and are an issue in content disputes on Wikipedia. I understand that disputes like the one you are in are frustrating - we've all been there - and I appreciate that you reached out instead of reverting again, but outreach has to be kept within the bounds of that guideline. I'm sorry that you guys have not received any response from the WP:NPOVN report the IP filed. Perhaps you should consider putting together a concise summary of the dispute (I'd focus on content and not behavioral concerns) and trying a WP:RFC. -- Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:15, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
IP 41 disagrees with what you think Kistler says about the inclusivity of spin off media within the whoniverse. What specifically does Kistler say on page 224? Does he use the word "whoniverse" or just say that they all occupy the same universe? No need to give a full reproduction of the text. GraemeLeggett ( talk) 11:43, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
A cursory google search would tell you that Alfred Niepieklo is notable. Even if an article looks rough in the beginning, please perform a google search to see if the article is notable before adding a speedy tag. Thanks. ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs)~ 19:16, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
Hello G S Palmer. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of KFC in South Africa, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Largest fast food chain in South Africa is a credible indication of importance.

Hi. Thank you for your help with the vital work of patrolling new pages. I noticed that you are not marking some of the pages you've reviewed as patrolled. Please do remember to click the 'mark this page as patrolled' link at the bottom of the new page if you have performed the standard patrolling tasks. Where appropriate, doing so saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page, so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thanks again for volunteering your time at the new pages patrol project. Kolbasz ( talk) 15:02, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I've removed the G3 speedy deletion tag you placed on வருவாய் மேலாண்மை, because the article doesn't appear to be vandalism. It's an untranslated article copied verbatim from Tamil Wikipedia, however, so I've tagged it for deletion with A2, as a foreign article. You might like to have a read of WP:CSD for more information on speedy deletion criteria. Thanks, Ruby Murray 19:42, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
Hey! Nice job with the recent page patrolling. Just a heads up that I contested and removed your speedy deletion nomination of Sons of Neptune under G3 criteria. Might not be a notable group, but it does appear legitimate through various online sources. Thanks, ~ Super Hamster Talk Contribs 04:43, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sons of Neptune, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page British ( 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.

It is the same as other competitors of ours: Alepo, Elitecore, Amdocs, Allot, AudioCodes If they are allowed, and our page is less commercial then their.
Why aren't you dealing with them? why Aradial is different? We are a company from 1997, not a new a one that is spamming take a look before you judge!

The article List of awards and nominations received by miranda lambert has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive 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, I just tagged this article for AfD, when I looked at the authors talkpage I saw that there was a notification from you of a Speedy Delete. Tag wasn't on the article & never seems to have been there. TheLongTone ( talk) 13:53, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
I would be grateful if you could review your decision to delete Roy Bowyer-Yin. He was a notable person, notable for his services to introducing choral music and various religious festivals to Sri Lanka. My understanding from A7 is that "it is irrelevant whether the claim of notability within the article is not sufficient for the notability guidelines. If the claim is credible, the A7 tag can not be applied. Often what seems non-notable to a new page patroller is shown to be notable in a deletion discussion." It seems to have been deleted without even considering anything said in support or in discussion. I would be grateful f the discussion in its talk page could be considered. Fattutor ( talk) 15:53, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Standard of living of women in the colonial united states. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Colonial_history_of_the_United_States#Women.27s_roles. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Colonial_history_of_the_United_States#Women.27s_roles – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Tutelary ( talk) 23:03, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing Solve quintic equation in general form, G S Palmer.
Unfortunately Altamel has just gone over this page again and unreviewed it. Their note is:
This article doesn't qualify as patent nonsense under CSD G1, it's probably closer violating WP:NOTHOWTO, in which case PROD would be appropriate, or it may be a replication of existing WP content (which I'm checking), if so, CSD A10 or merge.
To reply, leave a comment on Altamel's talk page.
I created the page about Berta Beeson--the one you slated for early deletion. :) Would you mind revisiting the page? I think you might find it more relevant now that I'm done with the initial editing.

Hello G S Palmer. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of my article. I believe my article should not be speedily deleted. My article is not just about Journey to the center of the Earth it is also about Journey 2: The Mysterious Island. This page is a list of characters from both films. I am aware that the Journey to the Center of the Earth and Journey 2: The Mysterious Island articles talk about the cast, but this article that I have created will give people some background info on both the Journey and Journey 2 characters. The other articles don't give that much info on the characters. I just need time to finish.) Tejanorules ( talk) 00:34, 7 May 2014 (UTC)--Tejanorules (talk) 00:18, 7 May 2014 (UTC) Tejanorules

Hello G S Palmer. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of List of Journey Characters, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: It definitely expands on the other article, which is essentially just a list of names. That being said, I don't think this should be here, but there isn't really a speedy category for it. It needs to be taken to AfD I think. . Thank you. Ged UK 12:32, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
I wanted to say thanks to you G S Palmer, for the work you did in fixing up the new article on the pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera. That was very helpful.

Best wishes to you, Invertzoo ( talk) 13:28, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
I apologize that I did not see your PROD at first while I submitted the article for deletion discussion, which overrode the proposed deletion request, and thus did not provide a reason in the summary. Still, I believe that the IMDb links count as sources. Not very good sources, I admit, but PROD requires zero sources or that all sources given are obviously unreliable. M.
