[edit] Redirecting

When redirecting pages ([1], [2]), remember to de-link them on the pages to which you redirected them (in this case, List of characters on The West Wing). BuddingJournalist 03:27, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me! --Hnsampat (talk) 03:28, 6 May 2008 (UTC

[edit] Messages to me

In future do not message me. It's obnoxious and I don't want it. On the record, there are many other articles that come under your umbrella of "subjective opinion". Get out of your pathetic little world that obsesses over things like The West Wing of all things and consider jumping into a lake. Work it out. It's a matter of his style and his appearance. I can concede that the "unusually conservative" line probably isn't wise and removing that wouldn't encourage my objection. My objection is to the complete removal of the section. It comments on his style and taste - thats the character's style and taste and it's perfectly legitimate given the popularity of the show. It occurs to me that you don't like it being there because you didn't write it, or it doesn't come under your idea of fact. I'm sorry but it is fact. It's a comment about the character's style. Obvious from the DIALECT of the show and the VISUALS of the show. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.223.65.253 (talk)

As I requested on your talk page, please assume good faith. It's not fair for you to essentially accuse me of claiming ownership over the article simply because you and I have a content dispute. Just to clarify, I'm not questioning that Leo wears suits. I'm questioning how notable that information is. Has it been commented upon by the show's creators? Has it been reported in reliable secondary sources? I feel like we don't really have enough information to comment on what his "taste" and "style" are. We're extracting information from the show based on our own interpretation. That is original research. So, as you see, I feel your addition suffers from a number of problems, including original research and lack of notability.
Remember, because Wikipedia is by definition the encyclopedia that anybody can edit, you will probably find many articles out there that have these same issues, but they, too, will be in violation of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. I'm merely doing my part in helping this particular article comply with those policies and guidelines. Now, I'm aware that I cannot and, indeed, should not be a one-man "police force," which is why I brought the matter up on the talk page. Whatever the consensus is, that's what we go with. If you would not like to be contacted on your talk page, I'll respect that, but then please respond either here or offer your opinion on Talk:Leo McGarry#Leo's appearance?. Thank you very much. --Hnsampat (talk) 13:44, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure you noticed but I chose to ignore you're suggestion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.185.23.224 (talk) 06:22, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Please remember that Wikipedia works by consensus. I'm trying to work with you to build a consensus, which is why I keep insisting that you contribute to the discussion on the talk page. Right now (with 2 contributions), that discussion isn't going in your favor. If a stronger consensus builds, then the policies of Wikipedia will dictate that the "Appearance and Taste" section be removed. If you then choose to ignore that consensus, it will be seen as disruptive by the Wikipedia community. If, however, you rationally lay out your arguments on the talk page, you may find consensus working in your favor. Come on, we're all trying to make the article the best it can be, right? Let's work together instead of arguing, huh? Thanks! --Hnsampat (talk) 06:29, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect

I think Gregory House MD needs to be redirected back to Gregory House. This is the only Gregory House on Wikipedia and chances are that people are expecting to see a House character when they put in "Gregory House" in the searchbox not a disambiguation page. I think that the page needs to be redirected back to Gregory House but the article should also have a link to a disambiguation page on top of it. Any thoughts? мirаgeinred سَراب ٭ (talk) 05:31, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I agree and I would have done it myself, but I don't have the admin privileges to undo the article move. We should put in a request at WP:RM. --Hnsampat (talk) 12:21, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ISKCON Slant

Dear Hnsampat, Thank you for writing the comment on the Hinduism discussion broad. I have been battling these iskconites for 7 long months now. Every article and every paragraph. All of the editors who deal with the Hindu articles are very much aware of it, especially shruti14. And, have warned and chastized these iskconite editors. Please look at my userpage and comments on several of the articles...and you'll see what I mean. Wikidas is the main culprit when it comes to iskconizing articles and another one is GaurangaUK.Please contact me if you want to. Please read the following message.............Dear Shruti,Thank you for inviting me to help with the Sri Sampradayam article. But, I think that I will holding off for a while with any editing. I looked at the information that wikidas put, and , again it is utter non-sense. The Sri Sampradayam goes back BEFORE the first century B.C., He put 10th century a.d. I also looked at his information that he put on the svayam bhavam article, at alot of it is non-sense and supporting his I.S.K.C.O.N cult veiw. Every thing he writes is with this iskcon cult flavor. His information is absolutely off and just fantasy in certain places, and other editors have mentioned this. But, the one thing that upsets me, is that everyone LETS him put these erronious edits and information. I believe he has really marred the truth and information on many articles. Alot of his information is not trust-worthy. And, I think people should be warned about it. Every editor contributing to any Hindu articles has let him do this. He has even recieved praise for his edits! Look at his discussion section. But, what really gets me, is that he writes EVERY THING with his Iskcon cult slant. I have asked every one for help with him...and nothing. If I had the time, I would make this into a Legal matter. Please, this is not directed to you, please dont take it personally. This is a very serious matter; with his non-sense cult information and no one in the wiki-community really cares. Wikidas and other iskcon-ites, before and during my stint wikipedia, have tinted most of the hindu articles with their particular cult flavor.
