[edit] Recent edits

I saw your recent contribution to IP address; we appreciate your effort to be bold and improve the article. However, the way you added to the article above the lede disrupts the formatting and flow of the article. It is also unreferenced, and informal in tone. I've reverted the article to its previous state pending a revision (by you if you want) more in keeping with Wikipedia style and reference requirements. The same concerns and actions apply to Internet protocol suite. Please do not view this as a rejection of your work. We are always interested in improving the quality and referencing of our articles, and you are welcome to continue your edits to these articles, keeping our style guidelines in mind.

[edit] American English

This Wikipedia is open to contributions in American and British-style English (see the running battle over the name of the article Orange (colour)). We do ask, however, that you apply the same high standards of grammar, style and tone to your contributions here that you would to contributions to an encyclopedia in your native language. --Orange Mike 18:48, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

In case you missed it, I replied to your comments on my talk page here [1]. I share Orangemike's concerns, and note that you re-inserted a very large block of text into IP address without addressing the issues of style, formatting and tone. Acroterion _(talk) 13:41, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Parallel articles

Dear Wiki104, I have removed most of the content you had added to various articles about Internet protocols. I hope you will continue contributing to Wikipedia, but please remeber that it is probably not a good idea to add very long sections that covers what is already covered in other sections (or other articles). Such sections can be interpreted to be attempts to create a parallel article as a section in the article. Instead I hope you will read through the articles and improve the existing text.

[edit] Edits to Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

Your recent reinsertion of information to the DHCP article reverts the hard work of other editors (and have thus been reverted by me) who have worked to clean this article up. Including specific how-to's regarding configuration of a DHCP server has no place in wikipedia and as per the DHCP Talk page. We welcome any changes you have that enhance the page and any descriptions of the protocol, especially changes that make it easier to understand. What are your specific problems with the article as it stands? - Nachmore (talk) 12:59, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Pressing one button which says undo is not hard work. THE HOW-TO as you call it explains the bleeding underlying concepts without which NOBODY has an grasp of the subject matter. Configuration of a DHCP server explains what the server is an how it operates. Of course a server of DHCP and how this works comes under the topic of DHCP.!!! please see http://xahlee.org/Periodic_dosage_dir/t2/wikimorons.html

Wiki104, please note that this [2] is also a possible copyright violation (see below), since it is clear that you had copied the text from http://www.linux-tutorial.info/modules.php?name=MContent&pageid=149. Please stop. Labongo (talk) 13:40, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Resorting to name calling would indicate that you yourself should actually read that link yourself. More to the point, the undo button is not that hard to press - although it becomes tedious when things are reinserted without any thought. Please give thought to the subject manner at hand - wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a how-to guide (i.e. why would the configuration of a server, which is implementation and OS specific really enhance an article?). - Nachmore (talk) 13:44, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to Domain name system

Please stop adding large blocks of text which you have copied with minor modifications from other sites. Also please take into account the issues that have been raised on this talkpage before making large changed to other articles.Labongo (talk) 13:25, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

okay I give up now. I believe that wiki is completely useless unless you already understand the subject matter which you are viewing. It seems to be a case of the emperor having no clothes on. everybody who contributes pretends to have a knowledge but there is no ability to explain this knowledge. The language used is all about the inability to articulate or communicate properly. I wouldn't call six weeks of full-time work a minor modification. I will not post anything further to wiki and will leave you all to remain at the world of wiki which is pretty uncreative and backward looking and isolated from the realm of European computer scientists who are very creative and constructive people. Bye.
