[edit] Edit summaries

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. -- JHunterJ 21:22, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WUSTL Project

 Hello, I noticed you've made edits to WUSTL articles or that you are in some way connected to Washington University in St. Louis. I thought you might want to become a member of Washington University in St. Louis WikiProject . We've recently built the project page and started a drive to improve articles in the WUSTL series. Please take a look to edit an article or add one of your own. Once an article's status has been agreed upon, feel free to stop by and lend a hand in getting it to featured article status. Hope you can participate!

[edit] Mars Article

Hi, I was reading your interesting Mars warming article, when I noticed it was getting changed. I went back to it and found that some people with clearly strong motives to promote Global Warming have effectively censored the article and removed any links or language which would show that the sun may be causing global warming throughout the solar system. -- Rameses 19:35, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Please feel free to add examples of bias you have encountered by the pro-Global Warming crowd at my page...I am accumulating all of the evidence for various actions throughout Wikipedia for the pages, users, etc and your help with the footwork is appreciated. -- Tony of Race to the Right 14:59, 20 February 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Climate of Mars

I was thinking that the article is looking good enough to remove the cleanup tag - what do you think, regards, sbandrews 00:21, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Barnstar of Valour

 The Barnstar of Valour
In recognition of your defence of NPOV and fairness. When one man stands tall, the backbones of all others are stiffened. Remember you are not alone in believing Wikipedia should be free of censors and bias. Good luck & many thanks. -- Brittainia 20:25, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] UBeR is being reviewed

Oren0, I just got this message from Uber, he needs our help: Hello, friend. I'd like to inform you of the attacks and claims made by Raul654 to the administrator noticeboard regarding my actions. I whole heartedly believe my actions are just and warranted. Please review the current situation. Thank you. ~ UBeR 23:31, 28 February 2007 (UTC) We should write our views of the situation with the proof to show the degree of frustration which Uber and we all are suffering. If we cannot save Uber from this injustice, WMC and company will simply extend this witch hunt to all who do not support their POV. Thanks, -- Brittainia 00:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Final Proof of conspiracy - Raul654 filed complaint just to "get this monkey off WMC's back"

The following is from my recent post, please go to the Admin noticeboard and post your views on this now exposed conspiracy by a group of Administrators. It is at: [1] -- Brittainia 05:58, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Raul654, this post [2] that you made just after UBeR filed a checkuser against William M. Connolley, clearly shows that this entire complaint against UBeR was orchestrated just to "get this monkey off WMC's back". The next step should be to stop this intentional diversionary complaint against UBeR and investigate your activities instead. Your entire group [3], [4], orchestrating these illicit activities should be thoroughly investigated by all those who have wasted a lot of their valuable time on your "getting this monkey off WMC's back". It is now clear that you yourself are guilty of most of the accusations which you have levelled at UBeR above, I believe that you and your co-conspirators should be permanently banned from editing global warming articles in order to stop the kind of bias, frustration and witch hunts which you are causing by your devious tactics. Everyone should know that this group are currently being investigated and exposed by a radio show for their hijacking of global warming articles as this group already knows [5] - thus they are bringing Wikipedia into disrepute. -- Brittainia 06:02, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Removed picture from Vincent D'Onofrio

Hi Oren. As you're probably aware Wikipedia wants images that are freely available to anybody, whereas most publicity photos are still owned by somebody who wants to retain control. Wikipedia makes exceptions where there is no free alternative available (somebody's dead, for example, or to depict a character rather than an actor), but in the case of a living celebrity that's not a realistic argument - theoretically, you could attend a film festival or award ceremony and take a pic. See Brad Pitt for an example. Therefore the photo can remain on the character's page but not on the actors. (Quentin X 13:19, 12 March 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Comments for 2007 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament

Just wondering if you plan to leave some comments on the strengths/weaknesses of the article you rated. I'd like to make some cuts to improve to an "A" rating and would appreciate a second opinion. Hoof Hearted 15:29, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Proper!

Ty, never heard of a proper adjective before - but I have now - also learnt how to spell proper :) regards sbandrews (t) 00:18, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion on Scientific data archiving

Please take a look at this Talk page, especially the part on "pseudoscience" and William's reverts. The POV of certain editors is preventing them from objectively dealing with the facts. The concepts involved are not difficult but they do take a little investment of time to understand. You may need to spend some time in the Pseudoscience article to be fully comfortable. I hope you are able to find the time to help out. Thanks! RonCram 15:06, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Please take a look at the best version now and comment on the Talk page. The best version is here.[6]RonCram 13:23, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
