You changed the spelling to Bye-Ren, it's supposedly "Rye-Ben" which is how it's spelled in Marc Miller's Traveller (T4) rule book by Imperium Games. It's even spelled that way on the official Traveller Wiki entry. I personally don't have the Aliens Archive book you sourced, although I've seen it and I did notice they spelled it differently. I'm assuming it was a typo on the second book's part but I can't be sure. Anyway not like it's really important for Wikipedia anyway, but for niche Traveller fan info I'd go by the main rule book in any case. Cyberia23 (talk) 23:54, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

First off you don't have to come at me with a pompous attitude and bite my head off about changing your "properly sourced edit" I even said - if you bothered to read what I wrote above - that I could be wrong, so you can stop being a jackass about it. Secondly, I didn't know there was an "editors note" in the stupid Alien's book so excuse the shit out of me. I just noticed the changed spelling but wasn't nerdy enough to care as to why. So whatever, change it back if you're gonna lose sleep over it. Cyberia23 (talk) 09:55, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Some people really need to acquire thicker skins around the Internet, and yes I'm pointing at you Cyberia23.

I fixed it up once I finished writing what I had to say to you last night. I noticed that you deleted what I wrote on your talk page, as if I give a damn. However, the next time you decide to justify an edit, make sure you have your facts straight. Something which you did not have last night.

For the record, I'll be posting what I wrote to you last night on my talk page, with this response, so everyone can see for themselves exactly what was said. Because it is dishonorable to delete words once spoken/written.

I noticed that you deleted what I wrote on your talk page, as if I give a damn. - Well you obviously do since you consider it so "dishonorable." Dishonorable would be leaving what you say there but changing your words around or something to that effect. Deleting BS off my page - that's just page cleanup. I didn't consider it saintly scripture. FYI it's my talk page and I can edit it how I like. Cyberia23 (talk) 14:20, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Wait a moment. So let me get this straight. You changed a properly sourced edit back to the original because you didn't have the book where the change is made? And then to justify the reversion you assume the Aliens Archive note to be WRONG?

Your assertion that the Aliens Archive spelling is incorrect is flawed. If the core rulebook was indeed correct, why then is there an editor's note in Aliens Archive that says the core rulebook spelled it wrong? If the T4 rulebook was in fact correct, there would be no need for an editor's note in Aliens Archive. Once you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. The truth is that the T4 rulebook is wrong, and Aliens Archive is correct.

P.S. Trying to justify your reversion by using another wiki as evidence is in poor form. Simply put, unless it's graven in stone (i.e., on paper) it is suspect, even if transcribed from the paper source. That said, I have the book sitting next to my computer, open to page 13. On the printed page, in black and white:

"(Editor’s Note: This race is mistakenly called the "Rye-Ben" in the Traveller rulebook. Bye-ren is the correct name.)"

Granted, this is but a minor edit, but there is a better way to do this than by clumsily reverting a properly sourced edit. Sege1701 (talk) 05:39, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

because, I am an a******e.

Really? No kidding? I have to say you're not the first, nor the worst I've met on Wikipedia. A little advice, I suggest you should try constructive criticism for a change, because being an "an a******e" won't win you any respect from me or anyone else around here. Happy editing now.

A tag has been placed on Barca di Venetia per Padova requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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.

• Admin Note - Material copied was sourced to this site, and per the site's Terms of Service, the material is CC-BY which is an acceptable license. However, user:Sege1701, the author of the article noticed that material from that source was actually copied from album information. The article is deleted as a copyvio for that reason and not for copying from the hcommons site. -- Whpq (talk) 03:35, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

  The entire reason I wanted to create the article is because I had the album. Am I correct in that I should not have an issue if I simply translate the Italian page (https://it.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Barca_di_Venetia_per_Padova) to English, as I have done in the distant past for another article? Sege1701 (talk) 15:45, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

  Yes, you could translate the Italian article. You will need to provide proper attribution. Help:Translation has information about translating, including how to provide attribution. The only issue may be if the Italian article copied text from the album cover. If so, that text would be a copyright violation and you would not be able to copy it as part of the translation. When you translate an article, you don't just translate, you also take responsibility for what you are posting which includes ensuring that the policies and guidelines of the English Wikipedia are met by your translation. I am not really all that familiar with translating so if you need more help, you may wish to ask at the Teahouse. -- Whpq (talk) 16:27, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you have added Creative Commons licensed text to one or more Wikipedia articles. You are welcome to import appropriate Creative Commons licensed content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied.

Please make sure that any Creative Commons content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 03:36, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by AlphaCore was:

So this is one of those cases where the requirements of Italian Wikipedia are not as strict as those of English? There isn't much information out there regarding this particular work, and the last time I tried creating the article the source I cited actually pulled its information from a CD booklet, resulting in an unintentional copyright infringement and a speedy deletion.
