Silicone Valley

You commented at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2013 December 25#Silcone Valley. That discussion was closed with consensus to retarget the Silicone Valley redirect to Silicon Valley. Your opinion would now be welcome about whether Silcon Valley should have a hatnote pointing to San Fernando Valley#Adult ednterainment, the former target of the redirect and only other notable meaning of the term. Please comment at Talk:Silicon Valley#Hatnote, thanks. Thryduulf ( talk) 23:53, 11 January 2014 (UTC) reply

Disambiguation link notification for August 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited St. Francis Dam, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Conglomerate. 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.

1971 San Fernando earthquake

Hi, please do not make changes to an article that make it disagree with itself. It's not good for the readers. The source(s) on the duration are in agreement and should be left alone. Thank you, Dawnseeker2000 19:56, 11 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Do you mind backing off that article altogether? I'm working on constructing a good article, and your repeated mistakes across the various articles that I've seen you touch are not making me confident on your style. Please respect this request. We have battled once and I really don't have the energy to do this again. I understand that this is going to come off as rude, but seriously, it's one mistake (or incorrect reason to make a change) after another with you. Sorry, I'm a perfectionist. Let me get the article to good article status. Please. Dawnseeker2000 20:01, 11 October 2014 (UTC) reply

I do not want to "battle" either but are you aware of what a wiki is? No editor owns the article, see- WP:OWN yet this is very much what you are doing, or trying to. With the changes I made the article did not disagree with itself, please tell me where it did, and my changes were referenced. My repeated "mistakes"-- Accuracy is a "mistake"? If you are such a perfectionist, why then are you using references which contradict themselves? Stover, C. W.; Coffman, J. L. (1993), Seismicity of the United States, 1568-1989 (Revised) has it listed as 60 seconds. Are they wrong? The USGS has it the same, are they incorrect as well? Also, I do believe MOS for distance with the metric equivalent that you are using is incorrect. This is a US en Wiki and as such the US standard should appear first. I also see that in this aspect you are using both and yet you are a perfectionist, interesting. ---You say "..cross the various articles that I've seen you touch.." I take it that you follow my activities closely? A word to the wise, don't go there, it will bring you nothing but trouble! Quit following my work and changing it as you see fit. So which way do you want to have things, correct or as YOU want and pick parts to include because they meet your standards? I will wait so that you may respond before any further changes or reverts may be made. Imveracious ( talk) 21:48, 11 October 2014 (UTC) reply


Hi, I've responded over there. There's probably a lot more to say, but let's just start with that :) Dawnseeker2000 22:26, 11 October 2014 (UTC) reply
Yeah, I didn't look closely at your conversion changes, but that's fine if you're just going to change the metric units. That was a large addition that I posed last year, and I just didn't get into any of that. Dawnseeker2000 22:37, 11 October 2014 (UTC) reply
What? This response makes no sense-- Imveracious ( talk) 00:04, 12 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Imveracious, we are not communicating well, and I'm sorry. I don't know what to do about that. A phone call would probably work better than all this typing. What I said was that at the time of the expansion I did last year (and since then) I haven't put any effort toward what you did with the conversions. I had only written what was said in the sources. In other words, I didn't modify the text to align with the Manual of Style for units. Dawnseeker2000 00:10, 12 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Information icon In a recent edit to the page Power dividers and directional couplers, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Spinning Spark 00:02, 31 October 2014 (UTC) reply
