15:55:32, 21 February 2015 review of submission by Trowbridge Aikikai

Hi. I have made substantial additions to the referencing of my article Draft: Stanley Pranin which I think is in line with what is required. I haven't completely finished and I do need to tidy a few things up but I will resubmit in order to get some feedback, to check if I am going in the right direction.

I notice that another article about Pranin has been published. It is bare-boned and has only one reference which is to Pranin's own work, the very very reason mine was rejected. I must admit that I find that strange. But let's look at that later. Cheers Trowbridge Aikikai (talk) 15:55, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

05:22:17, 24 February 2015 review of submission by MELowePM

Hello! I don't want to be a nuisance, but I'm curious as to the specific language of the submission that needs to be changed to more appropriately meet the requirements? I attempted to summarize the source material as best I could, while still trying to keep the article on point: focusing on the subject's notability by emphasizing its position as the oldest existing organization in Terre Haute and Vigo Co.

The references are all published, secondary sources except one. "Thomas, et. al" was compiled by secretaries of the Lodge, consolidating multiple records into a single volume. It was cited as a central source, rather than tracking down individual references for the listed members. (Multiple masonic directories were published by a third party listing these individuals, but as the list spans nearly 150 years, the reference list would be twice as long as the article.) One might argue that "Gilbert" borders on primary, but he was a local historian who wrote his book as an analysis and interpretation of the the records in the archives of the Lodge.

The last line of the article is the is, perhaps, mostly an opinion. I'm happy to revise/remove this.

Again, I appreciate your feedback.

The last line was a big problem, it just seemed to be over congratulatory, and " Terre Haute Lodge No. 19 has counted among its members, men of importance in both local and national affairs. Some of the most prominent members include[8]" could do with out the Prominent part. Also, with that list, why are those members so prominent, you need to explain that more. I would just try to make it a bit more neutral as you seem to be praising it in some sections. TheMesquitobuzz 06:18, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I dont know why you removed my edit. and I have read your "article" about "parallel trade" in Hong Kong. I found your comments are extremely biased. You should include full information. Also, you are not telling the truth, YOU ARE LYING. Here is a quote from your words" Media reported that 95% of multi-entrance travellers were mainland parallel traders". And from the resources your provided, I opened it, the whole article did not mention how the identity of those traders like. It only mentioned "95% of those commuters were parallel trader". If you cant read Chinese, please do not try to translate it into non-sense. And also, from my resources, which is posted on a Chinese version of this topic, In Sep 7th 2012 to Mae 28th 2013, the Hong Kong custom had uncovered 4339 cases in total, arrested 4325 illegal traders. 231 of them were from Mainland, China; the rest of them, which is 4090 people were from Hong Kong, which means, 95% of parallel traders were from Hong Kong!! I dont know your intention, but I cant let people read this untrue statement with intentional biases in it. If you are trying mislead people, you should be ashamed about your behaviour.  Preceding unsigned comment added by Pestcide (talkcontribs) 17:05, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

I personly have no clue what you are talking about, i reverted Editing tests on that page as the user was adding BOLD TEXT to the article randomly. If you have a problem with the artilce, you can always go to the talkpage of the Article. Thanks TheMesquitobuzz 17:09, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Awale-Abdi

I just added some edits... If you have no qualms with them, I'd like it left like that. Thanks, man. Seriously, we keep showing this Zekenyan evidence and sources and he just ignores what he's being shown. On the Walashma dynasty talk page-> he practically ran away after I showed up and shared clear sources tying them to Somali genealogies (some from Ethio-Semitic historians no less). He just wants to claim the dynasty was Argobba (not one source claims this particular origin ever, unless it's insane...) Awale-Abdi (talk) 05:08, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

All good, the addition of retarded is what caused it, but since then I have left it alone. Thanks, TheMesquitobuzz 05:27, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Hello, that guy you mentioned called me "an idiot" more than once. I acted mostly snarky with him but didn't directly call him an idiot. Also, we didn't encounter each other on an edit page. He came onto my page and started a conversation (somewhat mocking me), I mocked back and then he called me an idiot and then I guess he decided to report me? Idk. But send him a warning too, please. He did plenty of "personal attacking". He also made fallacious statements about Somali genetics disproven by genetic literature I shared with him (that is also shared on this site); laughing at it and thinking I was an idiot for denying that Somalis lack any recent (Islamization caused) Arab admixture. Consider this me reporting him. Awale-Abdi (talk) 23:07, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

I have also warned him, but both of you are guilty of breaking the rules and need to step back from each other so you can all calm down. There is no need for Personal attacks. Thanks, TheMesquitobuzz 23:16, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

I agree and I do apologize profusely for losing my cool and being disrespectful... There is no excuse for that. I was just annoyed that he essentially 'came looking for a fight' and then more or less disregarded all of the clear evidence and sources I shared with him and went on to make an incorrect statement about Somali genetics. But again; no excuse for my behavior. But may i ask how far we can go with "personal attacks"? Is snarky sarcasm for example acceptable or does the very tone of someone's post fall under a certain amount of scrutiny? Anyway, I'll refrain from ever being disrespectful in the future. You have my word. Awale-Abdi (talk) 23:22, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Was my final message on his page to your liking? Awale-Abdi (talk) 23:50, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Incorrect Warning Message

You warned a user for removing AfD templates here, when it was actually an NPOV/unsourced content violation. I edited the warning on the user's talkpage. Joseph2302 (talk) 01:19, 28 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your work dealing with the stupidity going on with that article. It annoyed me so much that I deleted all of the revisions from when the mass attack started. I didn't want to give the students the satisfaction of saying "See what we did?". -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 00:53, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

Draft: SAFID

Hi – thanks for reviewing the draft for SAFID. Could you tell me why you declined it? It was declined by Eurodyne before and I didn't agree with his reasoning (see that discussion here – a bit of a one-sided discussion as he didn't answer my question). His problem was that he doesn't think Q&As are independent sources. He directed me to an essay to illustrate this point, which is clearly tagged as being the opinion of some editors but not official Wikipedia policy. My sense has always been that if Q&As are in decent publications with editorial oversight and are used to support uncontroversial facts (in this case, what the company does and the type of products it makes) rather than to present opinions as facts, then they can be used. I'd appreciate your thoughts. Thanks. HOgilvy (talk) 18:40, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

@Eurodyne: Hello! While the article is not 'Official', most of us tend to use it to review articles. An article that is an 'interview' of sorts, like a Q & A, is not accepted as it is someone who works for the company talking about the company, who would have a bias. If you could find better sources than that, the article looks good and would likely get accpeted. Thanks, TheMesquitobuzz 19:00, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Sure but I'm not using them for things for which we need to worry about bias, only for the Products section and the second sentence in Origins and Expansion. Why would a company rep lie about the products they make? They're an air conditioning company and they make ducts, louvres, dampers, etc. as they're saying in the Q&As. I don't see why bias is therefore something we need to guard against in this case. I could get rid of "SAFID has developed a range of cylindrical ducts to replace traditional rectangular designs, allowing for more efficient airflow" from the Products section if that would help. Thanks. HOgilvy (talk) 20:10, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

hey bud, i thought my post was very constructive. Off topic but would have been very true in the time :)  Preceding unsigned comment added by Zekec1 (talkcontribs) 01:26, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
