[edit] Reliable Sources/Controversy?

How can you try to expose something that happened when you keep removing it as having a unreliable source. This event actually happened. I am sorry that the news or some other website did not talk about it...it was suppressed. Wikipedia has serious flaws and I will no longer use it if the truth is silenced.

Shorecrest High School

Replying here for the record, since anonymous user/user talk pages are often blanked. I'm sorry if the controversy you wish to discuss was "suppressed" (although given today's media environment, I find it hard to believe that a legitimate newsworthy -- and thus, encyclopedic -- event was actually ignored by every single outlet in the major market of Seattle). However, the proper venue to get your message out is local news or perhaps reputable blogs (of which the LGBT community has more than a few). Your club's MySpace or whatever is a start, but Wikipedia is not the next step; Wikipedia is absolutely not a venue for your personal causes, but rather a place that reports notable information based on other reliable sources. In other words, an encyclopedia. If you do not want to use Wikipedia in this way, then perhaps you should go somewhere else. Thanks. --SuperNova |T|C| 06:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Red and the Black

This is really just an academic question, since I don't have any problem with the dab template you added. But do you really think that someone looking for Red and Black will inadvertently end up at The Red and the Black? I'm wondering if, for example, this happened to you. The reverse error seems possible, even likely, but this one has me befuddled. Like I said, this isn't a complaint; I'm just being curious. Thanks! | Klaw ¡digame! 18:23, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

• Ah, I just figured it out. Would you be amenable to changing Red and Black into a dab page that points to both the novel and the newspaper? That seems like the best solution to me. | Klaw ¡digame! 18:24, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

• Done! Pleasure working with you. | Klaw ¡digame! 01:23, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Sigma Nu Wikipedians

Quite simply, we don't categorize Wikipedians by external divisions. Categories that are related to one's skills, interests, WikiProject memberships, etc. are fine and encouraged. But categories for all possible affiliation that may matter in Real Life but not on Wikipedia don't belong here. You already have a box that states your membership. That should be more than enough. Cheers, --MarkSweep (call me collect) 07:55, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Regarding the issue of consistency, I completely agree with you and I'm all for it! It's mostly a matter of time: there are a lot of categories to check and sort through. Cheers, --MarkSweep (call me collect) 08:08, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

This is all part of an emerging consensus. See e.g. WP:UBP which states: "Use of categories should be restricted to encyclopedic content and certainly shouldn't be used in userboxes." --MarkSweep (call me collect) 08:19, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Georgia flag

No problem. The SVG of the Georgia flag here on wikipedia is an abomination. The color replication just isn't right. The PNG version is much more crisp and accurate.

Also, I might start a Georgia Wikiproject today in order to coordinate the activities related to Georgia topics. If I did that, would you be interested in joining? --BWD ^(talk) 14:30, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Q: Describe the tie-breaking procedures for pool play. A: In Round 1, the Teams in each pool shall be ranked according to the percentages of games won in Round 1. The two Teams with the highest such percentages in each pool shall advance Round 2. In Round 2, the Teams in each pool shall be ranked according to the percentages games won in Round 2, without regard to the results of Round 1. The two Teams with the highest such percentages in each Round 2 pool shall advance to the Semifinal round.

Ties shall be broken in the following order of priority:

• The team that defeated the other tied team head-to-head in a given Round shall be ranked higher in the pool standings for such Round.
• The tied teams shall be ranked in the standings for that Round according to fewest runs allowed divided by the number of innings (including partial innings) played in defense in the games in that Round between the teams tied.
• The tied teams shall be ranked in the standings according to fewest earned runs allowed divided by the number of innings (including partial innings) played in defense in the games in that Round between the teams tied.
• The tied teams shall be ranked in the standings according to highest batting average in games in that Round between the teams tied.
• Standings shall be determined by the drawing of lots, conducted by WBCI.

[edit] Bernard Ramsay

Has the person made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in the specific field? Yeah, but his field is the finance industry, and being an SVP even at Merrill Lynch doesn't pass that test.

Half of UGA is named for this guy! Not in honor of any accomplishments, but in honor of the big checks he wrote to UGA. Writing big checks, while nice for the recipients, isn't an accomplishment by any reasonable standard.

Additionally, the article has been verified and is not autobio/vanity or anything like that. That's nice. Neither criteria had a thing to do with why I prodded the article, nor do they trump basic notability standards, per the above. --Calton | Talk 07:08, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] UGA template

Supernova, I'm working on a template to put at the bottom of the University of Georgia main page and some of the pages off of it, and I would like your feedback/assistance. Feel free to edit as well as this is a first draft. The template is here: User:Roswell_native/UGAtemplate.

By the way I borrowed (OK - stole) your UGA userbox template to make a UGA stub - if you have not seen it, it's called UGA-stub. Just submitted the stub request earlier this week - I didn't realize you had to do anything other than create the stub. Let me know if using your design is OK or if you'd like me to change it. Thanks.--Roswell native 02:57, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi Supernova, I started tinkering with that UGA template again and finally got the borders as I wanted them. Let me know what you think: UGAtemplate. Also, another user (Tlmclain) and I have been working on recategorizing the University of Georgia category, so please provide your feedback if interested, it is posted on Talk:University of Georgia

[edit] Vince Lombardi

"Political Correctness" reigns supreme yet once again.David Unit 22:04, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

You forget that the subject is about Vince Lombardi, not about Lambeau Field, so WLUK-TV is relevant.

I know how important it is to keep the Green Bay Packers in a favorable light, so I won't risk you getting my banned for adding something like trivia.

You're such an idiot.....

David Unit 01:06, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

"You're right, it's NOT about Lambeau Field. But I guarantee if Lambeau Field had been on a different street, it would be that street named for Lombardi, not the former Highland Avenue."

I wouldn't go to Vegas on that kind of thinking.

When Holgrem Way was renamed, it doesn't attach itself to Lambeau Field.

"I can't imagine mentioning WLUK's connection unless I worked for them or something. (And even then, it certainly wouldn't belong here.)"

I don't work for them (or "something"), but outside of WLUK-TV (which is "Wikified") there are no other places on this two-mile strech of road except for those two noteworthy landmarks.

Besides, WLUK-TV was built before the renaming of the street.

"Now, I don't particularly expect you to listen to reason and logic, given your past behavior, but I felt I needed to try anyway. I'm sorry if you think I'm an idiot or politically correct or whatever else, but I'm just trying to produce a quality, unbiased reference source."

I know you are, there's no guesswork on that.

Basically, you're just a bully with a computer who sits in some sort of judgement determining what is worthy for the people to read and what isn't.

You call yourself a (liberal) "inclusionist", then include the info and give people knowledge beside what you want them to know! David Unit 09:18, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Oh yea, and just to really watch you turn whatever color your Atlanta Falcons are....

Guess what's on the corner of Lombardi Avenue and Holmgren Way, Tinkerbell?

Here are two hints:

1) It's a television station and;

2) They have a "Lambeau Cam" that is trademarked.

Stop sticking your Goddamn nose up the NFL's ass, it's not very becoming...........David Unit 21:02, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rotary International : Removal of section on political criticism

I know this article has been subject to some controversy, but I went ahead and removed this section because it was completely in conflict with Wikipedia policy, as well as just plain poorly-done. It was not cited, not really NPOV, and was one big weasel-word free-for-all. "Some alledge"-type statements DO NOT belong in Wikipedia, no matter how you feel about an organization, especially when some are objectively wrong, such as referring to Senator Dianne Feinstein, a liberal Democrat, as a conservative one. I believe any objective or subjective source, as well as anyone who knows anything about US politics, would disagree with that analysis. Paragraphs like this make the project look sloppy and inaccurate, so I removed it. --SuperNova |T|C| 21:56, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

We will restore this paragraph. Your problem is that

1/ We do not find a synonym for conservative. You may find conservatives even in the liberal Democrats. The real problem is to know what is your way, your personal way to make a distinction between left and right. Maybe should we use the word "pro-weapon" politician ?

2/ Dianne Feinstein is not EXACTLY a friend of wikipedia. Did you know it ?

She tried to "enhance" her wiki directly from the Capitol. And I think that Rotary does the same... So my claim that we will give to Wikipedia

3/ the problem is that Rotary is not, AROUND THE WORLD, sustaining any progressive politician. They did not even support Gandhi, did you know that. And I am not sure that the German Wiki community does allow wikipedia fiddling for Rotary, due to some racists support. I will come back with the Lindbergh sample, Honorary rotarian, and antisemist.

4/ anyway all this will be cleared by the arbitration request we want to submit to Wikipedia. So let"s use the "bad" version for the moment ;-)

84.102.229.124 01:34, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

PierreLarcin2 01:39, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't think I understood most of that, but it sounds like you want to use this site to express your personal anti-Rotary views that would probably best expressed on a "Why PierreLarcin2 Hates Rotary" website. And the latter option would be fine, that's your business, and I don't care about Rotary in the least, so go right ahead and make such a site. However, this is Wikipedia, and I do care that we keep it neutral and verifiable. Thus, removing my {{fact}} template from the racism paragraph without actually citing a source is offensive to Wikipedia policy; please see WP:Cite.

Further, you are correct (if I understand you) that the liberal/conservative distinction is a matter of opinion; thus, it does not belong here at all! You could say something like, "John Q. Example, writing in The Nation, notes that Rotary tends to support conservatives such as..." We should not ever say, "Rotary tends to support conservatives such as..." because Wikipedia has to stay neutral; after all, why give Dianne Feinstein (if she truly doesn't support this project) more ammunition against WP's accuracy? I hope you knew that neutrality was a policy; if not, please read WP:NPOV. (Gandhi, of course, being irrelevant in every way to this discussion.)

Finally, I'm glad someone will be arbitrating this issue, as it is clearly one where some individuals have some very strong views. That said, there is never any call to use a "bad version" as part of Wikipedia; the best, cited, neutral, verifiable version should always be presented, because most readers won't look in the history to see what "other" versions exist. The arbitrators, though, can, should, and probably will do that. Though I haven't been involved in this dispute (until now, I guess), I trust that they will make the right decision. In the meantime, I have to do what I think is the right decision and revert your last edit. --SuperNova |T|C| 06:08, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

We understand here that you are pro-Rotary, which is perfectly your right. Where you make a mistake, is by blanking proven facts against-Rotary. Personnally, you may have remarked that we never blanked pro- information. First.

Second, Rotary is clearly an elitist and racist organization. Their members, ALL AROUND the world, support conservative actions, and even indirectly weapons commerce [by allowing African States to spare money on the wealth budget]. Why should we NOT write it ? They are facts... So, do not worry, 1/ first we will show that your actions are POV 2/ second we have links with facts that... tend.. to assume... that Rotary is conservative. Were is it a problem ? Not really. As we/I said, Rotary is a public relations organization. Of course "they" (and all conservative and elitists around the world) tend to shade their actions. The problem is that wikipedia is not a showroom, and that it is widely used by scholars. Rotary goes into schools, and sustain children of their own to go to universities. They pay students. Don't you know :-) ? Do you think that these students (like Aldux probably, or you) will criticize them ? And why shouldn't children in these schools, when Rotary prepares an auto-presentation in their school, read on wikipedia that, for example, Charles Lindbergh, showed as an example by the RI as a "Famous Honorary rotarian" had an affair with very younger woman and expressed antisemistic public opinions. -Yes I know already, he has certainly excuses as any Rotarian.- By the way he tested nazi war aircrafts for the nazi Luftwaffe. Brilliant. Do you think that, in 1939, Henry Ford could have been approached by the Rotary to become a member ? He was rather a businessman, no, interested by ethics, no ? I am rather sure that you voted for Bush junior, it's OK. Did you know that his grandfather, a Rotarian, worked for the financer of Hitler ? Did you know that Rotarian founder Paul Harris was in Germany in 1938 TO PLANT A FRIENDSHIP TREE ? At that time, - jews were already OFFICIALLY persecuted since 5 years in Germany - concentration camps in Germany were active. With a club in nearly all big town, don't you think that, as Vatican, Rotary club was NOT aware about the existence of concentration camps ? The exclusion laws against jews, freemasons and handicapped were published starting 1933. Dachau was active in 1933 at 20 kms of Munich. Do you think that businessmen of Munich, in 1934, would have been aware of the activity of a concentration camp, 20kms from Munich ?

Do not forget : Rotarians define themselves as philantropists : they "Serve".. For sure, they served Jewish people ! And do not forget that the jewish founder of the Rotary dismissed "for professional reasons" in 1906. Waow ! Strange !

How real problem is that we have difficulties to manage all these texts, including the claim to build against pro-rotarians blanking negative aspects based on facts.

[edit] SO CALLED FEMALE MEMBERSHIP who was in the truth WOMEN SEGREGATION IN ROTARY

Stop wikipedia fiddling. If females are just members like others in the Rotary, there is no reason to add a distinct paragraph for women. An equilibrated way ? If you place a section "female membership" then you should place a section "male membership". But you can't :-) It is simply impossible : all Famous Rotarians are men !(exept Dianne Feinstein, but... ;-)

Plus you completely fade to grey the aspect of Inner Wheel . We have things to add about Innner Wheel and what you do is to impeach that by continuous reverts. Let us do our work, which is just mention of facts, and stop your Wikipedia fiddling : women WERE NOT welcome in Rotary until years 1970. Strange for a "serving community" club. But you do not answer to that, do you ? With a "profile of Mensanean"....

You are CERTAINLY rotarian or pro-rotarian. And your duo with SuperNova is interesting. Just interesting for our community.

Why don't you admit ? We are her both against-Rotary, WE SAY IT, BUT I DO NOT BLANK OR ALTER POSITIVE FACTS ABOUT ROTARY. 84.102.229.124 07:25, 20 June 2006 (UTC) PierreLarcin2 07:26, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

And above all : you are racist against French. You said that in your above critics. That's the first step to war. You should be ashamed to speak about Mensa in your profile You GIVE US PAIN. Stop continous reverts.

[edit] RfC issued on Rotary International

What does "despite for example, there were allowed to vote in France in Belgium in 1921 only" mean? and why was it placed in there with a {fact} tag? I am assuming you invented that after my comment on suffrage in Belgium, which has nothing to do with RI. And why do you insist on re-inserting bogus quotes? And why are we talking about cultural habits in other parts of the world that RI (may) happen to follow there, without mentioning that this is a cultural norm? And once again, what do you have against RI?Bridesmill 19:01, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

We work here on an International movement Bridesmill. And a movement which defines itself as philanthropic. All facts show that is a public-relations club who supports only conservative actions. The proximity of extreme-right or racism, whose Rotary sustained notable members by its program of "Honorary Rotarians" shows it.

Plus what they DID about the Famous Rotarians... that they changed AFTER the wiki sourcing of the URL where all Famous Rotarians were, included Pinochet. As you did : you moved Pinochet in the alphabetical list, they removed Pinochet from the URL and they placed a second page with only the Honorary Famous.

It was humor Bridesmill. You placed fact tag on our edits immediately, asking for sources but never sourced positive addings (the International Congress by Bruce?? speech on Polio these days) but always put on ourse, and you and Supernova (you never restaured what she illegally withdrawed) ever withdrawed what was not IMMEDIATELY sourced.

We know perfectly that all that fiddling is justified by this International Congress held in june 12-14 ? in Copenhagen. Of course Internet was a subject there, no doubt. And of course, as Rotary goes to schools, as year ends, of course scholars need to read "soften" wiki on Rotary, isn't it ?

Now it is over Bridesmill. We just put a Wiki Request for Comments about all this, a few minutes ago. We spent more that 30 minutes today to find out what you Bridesmill and SuperNova blanked since one day. We have no time for that AND it is difficult for both of us to retrieve info, take care of what was added [we do not censure], and replace what you faded, truncated or changed, smoothed. We have plenty of source facts, questions, etc, and we hope that the community will help us to put light onto this. The official claim for arbitration against Rotary wiki fiddling will be put in a few hours. Salutations, PierreLarcin2 20:01, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Our salutations also to you, SuperNova, who are probably a "RotaryStudentExchange" or a "Rotary ambassadorial" student. PierreLarcin2 20:03, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Battle Hymn of the Republic/UGA Football

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Battle_Hymn_of_the_Republic#Trivia

"Three hours before each University of Georgia football game (when the gates open) a lone trumpeter stands in the South Deck of Sanford Stadium and plays the first phrase. The UGA band also plays the entire song after home victories."

I thought the gates opened two hours before...and that there wasn't a lone trumpeter until pre-game. Perhaps I'm wrong? -Paul Ruddle

I think you're right about all that... I don't know, see about finding a source and making the edits, I guess. --SuperNova |T|C| 22:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Allowed

The sentence read :-

• "..., while Ghana (#50) had allowed only 4 goals in all of their World Cup qualification matches combined."

To me this does not make grammatical sense. It is a nonsense statement. So I was somewhat suprised by your objection. So I looked up allowed on Google and on [1] - we find;

Chiefly Southern & Midland U.S. - To admit; concede: "I allowed he was right".

• To my ears I allowed he was right is again ungrammatical nonsense. It appears that this is an uncommon dialectical usage of the word. It is most definitely one people in Britain are unaware of. Good Day to you. Jooler 21:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

The three "Chiefly Southern & Midland U.S." dialectical usages listed there - i.e.

To admit; concede: I allowed he was right.

To think; suppose: We allow he's straight (American Speech).

To assert; declare: Mother allowed that we'd better come in for dinner.

are all completely unknwon to me, and probably most people in Britain and elsewhere. Jooler 21:32, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!

P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 08:19, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Hey,

Why did you change the edit of Sue Wessler's bio? I worked with her and she does have that reputation.
