[edit] No problems.

Dear NWOG,

you are welcome to ask any questions!

The Russian economy haven't reached Soviet level yet, but it's about to reach, and therefore it's not so bad.

[edit] Aggressive POV pushing

unless you want administrative action taken against you i suggest you stop this nonsense. there are plenty of other places where you can push your political views. J. Parker Stone 11:55, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Block

You have been temporarily blocked for violating WP:3RR on Cuba. The block will expire after 24 hours. Thanks for your understanding; in the meantime, feel free to read and peruse Wikipedia. Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk 01:05, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] RFC

i have already requested an RFC from TJive who has done a good job dealing with this propaganda but if you do not stop with the Castroite talking points i will post one myself. J. Parker Stone 12:04, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Firstly, there is no such thing as "Castroite". Second, you fail to recognize that the world is not one-sided. You believe you are the only one right. You believe your views are the only one's correct, and all others are illegitimate. You should open your eyes, because you are not the only one on this planet. Your views are just that, YOUR VIEWS. They are not written in a holy book. They are not truth that is enshrined in heaven. You should lower your ego. I do not understand the last part of your sentence. You are going to "post one". What are you going to post? - NWOG

follow your own advice kiddo. and next time post the reply on my talkpage. J. Parker Stone 06:51, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] United States

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you were just trying to experiment, then use the sandbox instead. Thank you. That information has been added and removed NUMEROUS times, please stop, there is clear consensus that it is not wanted.Gator1 12:08, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

That's two.Gator1 14:30, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 3RR violation

Please see the three revert rule which you appear to have violated at Communism. I see you've been blocked for a 3RR violation before, so you should be aware of the rule. You may be blocked without further warnings for future violations in any article.-gadfium 01:28, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

I believe I have added something more or less every time I have revived a version. If I have not, then I must apologize. PS: How do I send a message directly to you, like you did to me? NWOG

To send me a message, you post something on my talk page - i.e. follow any link to my user page, and then go to the discussion tab and post there. I watch a user's talk page for a few days after I post on it so I can see any replies, but not everyone does that.
As regards 3RR, I believe that adding extra material doesn't make a difference, but I'm not an expert on the subtleties of the policy. The intent of the rule is to stop a revert war, and it did look to me like there was a revert war at that article with you on one side and several editors on the other. I'm not involved in editing that article at all recently.-gadfium 21:39, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Which Castro pic?

Please go vote on the talk page rather than have every editor rotate the pic on every edit. All the recent photos are fine, let's just decide on one. Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 19:41, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

I do not particularly like the current Castro picture, Image:Fidel-recent-bw.jpg. His face seems kind of puffy, and it's B&W rather than color. However, it is (a) recent and (b) a face or upper-body portrait; those seem like abolute requirements. By (b), Image:Cubafidel.jpg clearly fails (Castro himself is about 1/4 of the picture). By (a), Image:FidelCastroCuba.jpg also clearly fails.
Either Image:Fidel31marzo.jpg or Image:Fidel-Speech.jpg should be fine still (both meet (a) and (b)). But apparently some editors don't like the first on image quality (it seems OK to me; but not to edit-war over). In any case, I really don't understand your need to continually change the image every day; what we have seems adequate, even if not brilliant (and much better than your proposed substitutions).

[edit] Cuba

Your edits on Cuba are considered vandalisms (the removal of the Human rights section, for example). Please try to contribute more useful content in the future. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-10-29 16:39

Of the nations in the Greater Antilles, Cuba is the only one who has a Human Rights section. It is unfair. Therefore I made Cuba equal to the other nations.

  • You make them equal by adding Human Rights sections to the other nations. You don't delete sections that others have worked hard on. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-10-31 17:51
  • Quote from 172 | Talk on the Cuba Talk page, dated October 11: "In other articles there are a series of standard sections on history, politics, economy, and demographics-- each with a link to their respective main articles, along with a "miscellaneous" or "other" section for everything else. In other articles, human rights go under "other" or under the related articles. This is the case for the United States. It is even the case for other communist countries like People's Republic of China. [1] Thus, it appeared that the inclusion of a section on human rights in this article was at best arbitrary or at worse politically determined without reference to the NPOV policy."
    • I agree with 172 | Talk's arguements.

[edit] April 2006

Your edit to Cuba have been reverted. This article is under a WP:NPOV dispute and all major changes must be talked about on the talk page for Cuba. Please stop or you will be blocked from editing here. --Scott Grayban 19:20, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Controversial edits

Hello. Before making what can potentially be controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Otherwise people might consider your edits to be vandalism.

I see little reason to discuss the edits when inaccurate information is presented. Perhaps you should be more careful in the future yourself, because you are adding false information to the page, even when you have been notified the information is false. Cheers - NWOG

  • Find evidence to back up your claims, present them for others to discuss, refute their replies (if possible) and go from there. If you cannot find a means to discuss information, rather than revert it, I suggest that you move on to another site. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-10-31 18:46

It is basic knowledge that Fidel Castro has NOT been the President of Cuba since 1959. If I remember correctly, he was Prime Minister up to 1976, until that position was abolished; He became President 3 December, 1976. But I understand. Some people are interested in different aspects of history. Do you not believe me? If you do not, I assume you want me to back it up with a source? - NWOG

  • Why are you only talking about whether he was president or not? In your edit that you keep reverting, you change a lot more than the date of his presidency. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-11-3 23:55

[edit] Image:Checuba.jpg

This image has no information on its source. Unless adequate source and copyright information are provided by December 13, it will be deleted. Ingoolemo talk 05:41, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

The same is true of Image:Chefidel.jpg. Ingoolemo talk 05:42, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Constructinghome.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Constructinghome.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairusein|article name}} or {{fairuse}}. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by going to "Your contributions" from your user page and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much.

[edit] Human Rights in Norway

What the heck are you talking about? You wrote; "I've noticed there is no "Human Rights in Norway" article. The treatment of natives, racism and discrimination in today, and the controversy regarding Arne Treholdt and others might deserve a mentioning. NWOG 12:48, 22 October 2005 (UTC)" Do you have some kind of problem against the west?


[edit] April 2006

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to Cuba, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Scott Grayban 19:36, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

This is your final warning on vandalizing Cuba. --Scott Grayban 19:36, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
