the IPA transcription on the top is different than the bottom


In the Amharic language page has two different transcriptions for how to pronounce the native name of the language, on the bottom it says "አማርኛ Amarəñña, IPA: [ämärɨɲːä]" and on top it says "አማርኛ Amarəñña...[amärɨɲɲa]". So which one is it? <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding unsigned ↗ comment added by Sion8 (talk • contribs ↗) 21:32, 9 May 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

License tagging for Image:Wolf leslau.gif


Thanks for uploading :Image:Wolf leslau.gif ↗. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag ↗ applied to the image description page ↗ indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions ↗. 22:09, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi -- I just noticed your contributions to Onesimos Nesib ↗ and your creation of Aster Ganno ↗, an article on an unjustly neglected person.

It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists.

Majang Vowels



Hi Pete! Good to see you at work in Wikipedia! I noticed your activity on the Majang vowel system. In principle, I agree with you that Majang probably has a 9-vowel system, and I am working currently on that, measuring formants, using the data of the two German students we had last year. Unfortunately, I think that there is no publication yet that states that Majang has a 9-vowel system. When I did the article, I set the link to Bender as a reference, and he only shows his 7 vowels. So either we have to remove the reference, and then the information would be original research ↗, or we would have to go back to the old wording, which was still original research, but probably a little bit more subdued. I hope that I will be able to publish something like a phonology of Majang in the course of the next few years, and then I think the article could refer to that. But before that I guess we are stuck with Bender's publications on the matter, and we need to refer to them. Landroving Linguist (talk) 13:14, 27 March 2008 (UTC) (Andreas Joswig)
:Wow, that was a quick solution to the problem. I sent my message off to you, then checked the mail (I mean the real mail), and there was a parcel from Harrassowitz with the third volume of the Encyclopeadia Aethiopica, and that has your article on Majangir language in there, and here you write that there are nine vowels. So there '''is''' a published source as of today, and I will correct the link accordingly (tomorrow, I will go home now). Anyway, you can basically ignore what I have written in my above message.

Bible translations by language



Pete: I see you've just added another couple of languages. Great. But are you aware that there is currently discussion on the Talk:Bible translations by language ↗ page about restructuring this article? It would reduce drastically to be more or less just a table of contents (list of languages) with the actual information going into a separate article, such as "Bible translations (''Cornish'')". Your views would be welcome. Feline Hymnic (talk) 22:43, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition


Thank you for adding a useful book to the Further Reading list for the ITAE article. I see you've also listed four related films. Do you have any further information about them? Serious documentaries are worth mentioning, but docudramas can be misleading and probably shouldn't be listed. Can you put some details on the article's talk page?

Proposed deletion of Sacred name Bibles


left|48px| ↗
A proposed deletion ↗ template has been added to the article Sacred name Bibles ↗, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion ↗, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not ↗" and Wikipedia's deletion policy ↗). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the <code>{{tl|dated prod}}</code> notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page ↗.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process ↗, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria ↗ or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion ↗, where it may be deleted if consensus ↗ to delete is reached.<!-- Template:PRODWarning --> Fram (talk) 08:22, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

III. I will be making some changes to the Sacred name Bibles ↗ page. Since you expanded the article, I feel it needs to be fixed up and the sections shortened to a “digestible” and manageable length. I do have a query; why aren’t the popular Bibles such as the ASV ↗ and JB ↗ included in the Sacred Name Bible list table? I would be inclined to include them in the table. Should you be concerned about the size of the table, I suggest that we could divide the Sacred Name Bible table in to three groups: 1. That use sacred name in the OT 2. That use sacred name in the NT 3. Those that are incomplete or online. (I would prefer that the online Bibles be put on a different table, on a different page altogether.) Working together.

Besorah is a plagiarized copy of The Scriptures 1998



The publisher will not deny it. Pamela Stanford requested permission from the ISR to "consult" The Scriptures for her "Natsarim Translation Project".

The ISR is currently preparing the copyright violation case against the Publisher of "The Besorah". When confronted with the fact that she did not "consult" the text she did not deny it. What makes matters more serious is that the ISR The Scriptures 1998 text is copyrighted, and Pam Stanford in her publication claims to have a team of scholars working on the translation (bogus), and that the text is now public domain. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding unsigned ↗ comment added by Billmeyer777 (talk • contribs ↗) 23:49, 16 January 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

retroflex implosives



Back in 2008 you added to ejective consonant ↗ that some Eastern Cushitic languages have ejectives and a single retroflex implosive. That's almost certainly incorrect: besides the odd distribution that would make for, phonemic retroflex implosives are not known to actually exist, and the IPA does not even have a symbol for them. kwami (talk) 20:16, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

byword ↗ & byspel ↗


Hi! Is it that both terms are regarded (OED?) as spurious, or just the one: ''byspel''? ''Byword'' is a common synonym for a proverb in general, especially to help distinguish it from a Biblical proverb, and the Book of Proverbs (when used plurally). I think it would be beneficial to still include that term in the lead, due to the redirect from Byword ↗. But ''byspel'', no. That is more rare. Leasnam (talk) 15:11, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

As a participant in Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Abortion article titles ↗, you may wish to register an opinion on its followup RFC, Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Abortion advocacy movement coverage ↗, which is now in its community feedback phase. Please note that WP:RFC/AAMC ↗ is not simply a repeat of WP:RFC/AAT ↗, and is attempting to achieve better results by asking a more narrowly-focused, policy-based question of the community. Assumptions based on the previous RFC should be discarded before participation, particularly the assumption that Wikipedia has or inherently needs to have articles covering generalized perspective on each side of abortion advocacy, and that what we are trying to do is come up with labels for that. Thanks! —chaos5023 20:31, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Deletes at Messianic Bible translations ↗



Hi Pete, this ↗ is probably partly my fault. Please take a look at User_talk:Bringshalom22 ↗. Bringshalom was repeatedly trying to add "HalleluYah Scriptures" to the list, but was getting shot down by a number of other editors (not me). It got to the point of edit-warring, but I finally got Bringshalom to engage in a discussion about the sourcing for these entries on Bringshalom's User Talk page. The issue is that in the list of translations, only Stern's has a reliable secondary source. Of the other three, one is entirely unsourced, and the other two are insufficiently sourced--they are sourced only to the individual Bible publishers' own websites. Bringshalom was getting frustrated that HalleluYah kept getting removed, but the others were being allowed to stay. I mentioned to Bringshalom that the others actually were in equal danger of being removed as equally unsourced/insufficiently sourced. I think then Bringshalom took this as license to remove them. I wasn't going to remove them myself, but honestly my view of it is that Bringshalom's edits are justifiable due to the sourcing problems. Any joker out there can publish a translation, no matter how awful, and put up a website for it, this is why there needs to be independent reliable secondary sourcing for the entries. Anyway, I'm not going to edit the article, but I'm sure Bringshalom is going to come back frustrated after I explained the sourcing problems with the other entries and told Bringshalom, "someone should find sources for them before they are challenged and removed--all three could be removed at this point as unsourced."

re. Yiddish SL



Hi Pete,

Re. Yiddish SL, I've tried to verify this exists, but have come up empty. The closest I've gotten is a comment by a deaf Hassidic Jew that the Hassidim of Israel speak Yiddish, but that deaf Hassidim have nothing but home sign. There have been ISO codes for several spurious languages, so that's not good evidence it exists. I mean, even the Joshua Project couldn't locate anyone. It would be nice if we could verify or disconfirm this, as most of the other SLs are at least mentioned in the lit even if we know nothing about them. — kwami (talk) 20:17, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

:Hi,
:I'm not asking for it to be removed, only tagging it as needing references, which it does. The E17 entry only says that it's "apparently" distinct from ISL, which suggests they don't actually know anything about it. I don't know where they got their info, but maybe someone, somewhere, will have a ref we can use for the list or maybe even enough to create an article. Or a ref that there is no such thing. Either way; meanwhile IMO it's good to have it in the list but tagged as needing confirmation. — kwami (talk) 21:29, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Hello



Thank you for looking over my edits on the Oromo Liberation Front page. However, I had a few concerns;

1. The people supposedly killed by the OLF a month before the 2005 elections were not Oromos or OPDO. Citation 16, which is a Nelson Institute report, states the following;
"In one instance, just one month before the 2005 election, some 400 members of the Gebera, an ethnic group in Oromia with strong
ties to the government, were slain."
This means that those slain were not Oromo but Gebera. The second citation (17) is defunct. The lack of more information on this incident leads me to believe that it might be false. I have tried to find more reports on the massacre but I have found none. That same year, the Ethiopian government massacred 200 protestors and it made big news, a massacre of 400 should have more reports. What do you think?

2. The paragraph about the Bodeno Massacre has only one citation and it is defunct. However, after doing some research, I have noticed that there are conflicting reports as to who instigated the massacres. In these articles; http://nazret.com/blog/index.php/2009/03/10/ethiopia_tesfaye_gebrab_on_bedeno_and_ar?blog=15 http://www.ethiopianreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?
http://www.solidaritymovement.org/historyOfHumanRightsViolations.php

the writers state that the OPDO (Oromo party of the ruling EPRDF coalition) were the instigators of the massacre. In other articles (such as this one; http://www.ethiolion.com/Pdf/021309_Tamirat_Layne.pdf , it blames the OLF.

I'll wait for your reply before making any changes.

Pete, I have to cut in. You are absolutely not right. Inserting Czechia ↗ is only solution to finally stop the mess in Czech things in English Wikipedia. After all, you can see that the link is functional. Why only one country should not use geographical name and be restricted only to political ? Czech republic is simply (ane more than apparently) NOT enough to describe the country and its personalities in more than 1100 years long history. To make some circumventions is confusing and silly. Czechia, however not commonly used, is geographical name of the country and its equivalent is used in all other languaqes. Look at some categories like "people from the Czech republic", where are included personalities that have never lived in contemporary Czech state, it is embarrassing and shortsighted. Stop continue in organization of a mess. If somebody does not like the name, such a subjective attitude does not have place in the issue Askave (talk) 16:08, 15 September 2013 (UTC)

The Art of Not Being Governed: An Anarchist History of Upland Southeast Asia



The article on the ''The Art of Not Being Governed ↗'' (2009) was recently improved to the point I felt that it and its referenced term Zomia (geography) ↗ added a 21st century perspective to the mufti-ethnic support for what the Thai called the Holy Man's Rebellion of 1902-3, and the similar resistance by Ong Keo ↗ that lasted until 1910; and by his lieutenant, Ong Kommandam ↗ that lasted at least until 1936.

Speciesism



Hi Pete, would you please stop adding unsourced or poorly sourced material to the article? I'm trying to maintain it so that it doesn't deteriorate. There are plenty of academic sources that discuss this concept (and this article is about the concept, rather than any of its practical applications), so there's no reason to use non-academic sources or blogs such as www.purewatergazette.net. http://www.purewatergazette.net/blog/about/ ↗

Also, I think you may have misunderstood the idea. Arguments against speciesism do not involve treating apes, dogs and flies in the same way. No one argues in favour of that, so it is pointless to post an argument against it. SlimVirgin <small><sup>(talk) ↗</sup></small> 02:40, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

:I'm copying your post here, so the discussion is in one place (but better still to continue it on article talk):

::The question about whether speciesism views different species seems non-trivial to me. If those against speciesism treat primates, dogs, cats, rats, worms, vinegar eels, and termites differently, is that not a form of speciesism? I want to understand a clear definition, and the article does not yet give it. Some days ago, I asked for a clearer definition along these lines. Nobody has responded yet. Any insight is happily received, though I will now be out of contact for a couple days. Gently, Pete unseth (talk) 02:57, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

:It's not a form of speciesism if there are morally relevant differences. That's the key: not species membership, but morally relevant differences, as the lead says. Those differences may or may not boil down to species membership depending on the situation, but it's the morally relevant properties that are weighed, not the species membership alone.

:If you believe there's no clear definition in the article, the way to proceed is to read the academic sources and add one, but there's no point in adding unsourced opinion, or opinion sourced to a blog, and continuing to add it over objections.

Tetragrammaton



Not sure why you marked my edit as disambiguation.This is what you wrote:(Reverted "see also" which takes reader to disambiguation page, not to an article. Am I missing something)
I added Tetractys to the "see also" section on the Tetragrammaton page because:
You ask what are you missing? Well as you can see on the Tetractys page "Tetragrammaton" is clearly mentioned on the page under the Kabbalist Symbol section. This would indicate that I can add Tetractys to Tetragrammaton "see also" section. Not sure what you are missing about this. "There are some who believe that the tetractys and its mysteries influenced the early kabbalists. A Hebrew Tetractys in a similar way has the letters of the Tetragrammaton (the four lettered name of God in Hebrew scripture) inscribed on the ten positions of the tetractys, from right to left. It has been argued that the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, with its ten spheres of emanation, is in some way connected to the tetractys, but its form is not that of a triangle. The well known occult writer Dion Fortune mentions:"

Hadiya Kingdom


My Google search showed no other hits for "Hadiya Sultanate", only yours. There is much evidence and precedent for calling it a kingdom, but not for calling it a sultanate. I can see no reason for this change. If there is no valid evidence for this, then it should be restored to its previous label. Pete unseth (talk) 22:00, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Language Conservation Status



Hello fellow linguist. Thanks for supporting my ideas about the conservation status of languages. I wanted to propose a change to the language infobox that adds a section concerning language conservation and vitality. I was hoping we could throw the idea around of making a language conservation template or diagram of some kind that could be used on each language's page in the infobox to help the reader visualize the vitality of the language, similar to the endangered species one. Each language in the world has a status and vitality, as do species.

Here is my current idea about language conservation statuses we could have in the infobox (I am always open to discussion and other ideas):

Here is the endangered species diagram, which I was hoping the language status diagram might look like:
Image:Status iucn3.1 CR.svg ↗

However, the problem with language conservation status is there is a not a concrete source as there is for defining the conservation status of species (the Red List of Endangered Species). UNESCO can be reliable for language conservation status, but it appears to struggle with original research and has trouble differentiated between a language and a dialect. Ethnologue by SIL International is generally reliable and does provide a status for each language, but it is a missionary resource and is thus biased; some of the data is manipulated and linguists do not agree on its accuracy. I was thinking that the Catalogue of Endangered Languages by the University of Michigan and the University of Hawaii looks reliable, and well defines the various degrees of language endangerment/vitality, but I'd like to hear everyone's ideas. We need a source that linguists agree is generally reliable to prevent potential edit warring between users knit picking various sources.

your edit war on Joshua Fishman



30px|left|alt=Stop icon ↗ Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war ↗. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page ↗ to work toward making a version that represents consensus ↗ among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD ↗ for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard ↗ or seek dispute resolution ↗. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection ↗.

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing ↗'''&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule ↗, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts ↗ on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;'''even if you don't violate the three-revert rule'''&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.<!-- Template:uw-3rr -->

Gentle observation ↗



Hi Pete. I'm looking at p.989 of that 1998 ''Futures'' article by Jan Mair. Her one parenthetical comment is: "Notice not just the Dylan Thomas rip off ('Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night’) but also how the speech is reminiscent of George Bush’s address prior to ‘Operation Desert Storm ..." Now I'd agree that half-sentence might help explain where the script writers stole the line. It might even illuminate the ethos of the film (Mair's actual subject in her paper). But I'm really not sure it's a good example of the use of Dylan's poem "in popular culture"? The fact that the original Elsevier paper is (usually) behind a $41.95 pay-wall, means that readers can't even judge for themselves. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:45, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

Languages of Ethiopia



Hi Pete, I noticed that you reverted an edit on the Languages of Ethiopia ↗ page, calling it unexplained deletions.

Waldensian revert



Hi, I see you reverted my edit on Waldensians ↗. I had reverted the edit by the anonymous editor who removed cited material. After doing the edit, I realized that the reason I gave didn't make a lot of sense. I meant to say that I reverted it because the anonymous editor had removed cited material. Furthermore, it seemed to be an edit that was not a neutral edit, removing the opposing viewpoint that refuted the claim of the Waldensians being 7th-day keepers (I personally have not seen that in my own readings, but it could be that some did). I suggest that both citations be kept, as a "compromise," but the wording needs to be changed back to "claimed," not "showed," to keep it neutral. Thanks.

Etymology


Greetings! Could you please vet the etymology ↗ on Abyssinians? It is a bloated mess.

Appeal of your reversion 31 October 2016 of my edit to "See Also"



Please do not hesitate to delete this msg from myself at = North Alabama 000 (talk) 11:20, 20 November 2016 (UTC) <br />
Regarding this transaction --> https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bible_concordance&diff=next&oldid=746789168<br />
<br />
Your assertion was = .... "no close relationship to article".<br />
Here next is a related quote from --> Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Layout#.22See_also.22_section ↗<br />
"The links in the "See also" section might be only indirectly related to the topic of the article because one purpose of "See also" links is to enable readers to explore tangentially related topics"<br />
<br />
As i myself perceive it....<br />
Within the "See Also" sections, the standard of what-is-close-enough is intentionally lowered.<br />
Since the more tenuously connected subjects of "See Also" are useful for idiots like me.<br />
We who have not yet found the article we were looking-for.<br />
Who are not blessed with the vocabulary or wisdom skills that others have.<br />
And which allow those others to directly arrive-at the right article they seek.<br />
<br />
Concepts which are closely inter-related, as you preferred in this instance...<br />
They would surely be worthy of an appositive mention and wiki-link within the main body sections of the article.<br />
And additionally (but paradoxically) NOT within "See Also"....<br />
As is implied by this next quote from the Manual_of_Style article cited above:<br />
"As a general rule, the "See also" section should not repeat links that appear in the article's body or its navigation boxes."<br />
<br />
In closing i am guilty of displaying definitively-zero diplomacy skills.<br />
For your benefit i should have expended the additional energy in order to add a large layer of heart-speak atop the sterile logic.<br />
The phrase "should have" is fitting because....<br />
From seeing your contributions-listing it is plainly established that you have invested a lot of effort into wonderful Wikipedia.<br />
I hope-that... just as i have done in other cases... a large fraction of the other people you revert are expending the small energy required in order to thank you.<br />
I pray i did not accidentally cause your heart to somehow be hurt.<br />
But if unfortunately so, then please somehow let me know, so i can grieve alongside you.

Hi, Pete,
I reverted the change of position of the reference to this work in The Dog in the Manger ↗.

USS Nevada & youtube link



Youtube links in any article are general prohibited ''unless'' there is a damn good reason - and I mean a ''damn'' good reason - why they should be allowed to stand. In this case, your youtube link provides nothing per se that wasn't already in the article to begin with. By contrast, we had a link in the article Ted Briggs ↗ that cited a youtube video with an interview given by Briggs on his account of the sinking of the battlecruiser HMS ''Hood'', and since the information wass from a survivor of the battle was judged to contribute to the article by both showing the man and allowing him to recount the details of battle from his perspective. Additionally, ''Nevada'' holds a bronze star for featured status, so us MILHIST guys are usually very picky about what we accept when people edit the articles (and I mean that factually, not judgmentally). If you can show that the youtube link you want to add would add something important, meaningful, or otherwise necessary to the article that isn't already there, go ahead and bring it up on the article's talk page, otherwise I'd think it best if the link remained out of the article since Wikipedia's youtube policy is that articles should generally not include youtube links unless the link forms a vital part of article (such as having a link to youtube in the article on youtube ↗).

Sacajawea Wiki addition suggestion



In reference to names that she went by, one was Boinaiv, Shoshoni for "Grass Child," which was handed down to her via her grandmother, who also was named Boinaiv for her fascination with the tall grasses moving in the wind like the waves of the ocean.

Also, Sacajawea/Sacagawea/Sakakawea are all different spellings of her name.

1. "Sacajawea" was first used by George Shannon, a 17 year old member of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.

2. In the journals of Lewis and Clark about their expedition, they used different ways of spelling her name, such as "Sa-car-gar-wea," and more prevalent, "Sacagawea". Subsequently, the National Park Service adopted this spelling, as it was most commonly chosen across the nation. This version is also a Shoshoni word, meaning "Boat Launcher," for her skill and deftness in launching and guiding a Mandan bull boat.

3. The third spelling, "Sakakawea," was used by the peoples in and around the Hidatsa territory/tribe, which means "Bird Woman". It is a Hidatsa word, "Sakaka" meaning "bird," and "wea" meaning "woman". ShayneJayce (talk) 03:35, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Chastity belt



Unfortunately, your addition to this article was somewhat done in a somewhat inept way, since the title of what you added is debunking "The '''''medieval''''' chastity belt", while serious 20th-century scholarship came to the conclusion that chastity belts were much more of a '''''Renaissance''''' phenomenon than medieval, which creates a disconnect of sources talking past each other.

Self-published sources, and lead sections



Hi, you are right, that sort of source is not acceptable; Wikipedia views self-published sources as not meeting WP:RS ↗, so we simply can't use them. The only exception would be if such a book were itself to become notable for some reason (a scandal or a lawsuit perhaps), and had been discussed in multiple reliable sources itself. I've never heard of such a case but it must be possible.

On the neighbouring sentences not being cited, the article is in fact fully-cited, and the text is then summarized in a lead section which does not repeat the article's citations (I guess if we didn't have that policy, we'd repeat all the citations in the lead, which would certainly reduce some of the IP editing we get there, and would make copying and citing a "main" article summary in other articles a deal easier, but that isn't the policy at the moment). Anyway, if there were uncited materials there, that would be a cause for seeking reliable sources, not for adding sources not in that category. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:37, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Could you please stop, you can't add a 'new' source, even if it is actually reliable (which has not been demonstrated). The lead is only a summary, we do not add anything "new" there, specially not already established claims cited vaguely to the entire book! Your editing is becoming disruptive here. It looks as if you are trying to "sell" the book, too, which is forbidden. Please stop. Chiswick Chap (talk) 02:23, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

:Sorry, genuinely trying to be helpful. Only trying to cite relevant, overlooked source. Amicably, Pete unseth (talk) 14:15, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

:: Many thanks. I suspect that the book won't tell us much that the article doesn't say already, but if it's going to, then it needs to be in the main text and cited to page. I'd not heard of the publisher (before the self-published edition) but it seems to be bone fide. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:31, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Short description



Hi Pete! With respect to this edit ↗, short descriptions are not meant to be a definition ↗ and should in most cases be shorter than 40 characters ↗. This short description was twice that length. As the purpose of a short description is just for a reader to check that they understand the topic of an article, I fail to see what scope information is not conveyed by "LGBT terminology". What else might a person reading "Straightwashing: LGBT terminology" think the article is about? What other information do they need to have ''before'' clicking on the link to identify if they are clicking on the right topic? — Bilorv ('''<span style="color:purple">talk</span>''') 20:50, 30 October 2022 (UTC)

Re the category and Elizabeth Warren



Hello. I see you restored the category to Elizabeth Warren ↗'s page. I'd just like to elaborate on why I felt it was not appropriate. WP:BLPCAT ↗ states: {{tq|Category names do not carry disclaimers or modifiers, so the case for each content category '''must be made clear by the article text and its reliable sources'''}}. The name of the category you created is "Academics who falsely claimed minority ancestry". The problem with this is that I haven't seen a reliable source which states that she "falsely claimed minority ancestry." Sure, I've seen reliable sources affirming that she is not a member of a tribe, and that she should not be considered 'racially' Native American. But I haven't seen any source debunking the idea that she had a Native American ancestor, which is what your category name is saying. As to whether I would support renaming to "incorrectly", that doesn't solve the issue that she could indeed have a Native American ancestor somewhere. In any case, I wouldn't want to consider renaming until the deletion discussion is complete, because of the other issues with the category that I noted when listing it for discussion.

Potential addition to the "Causes of food deserts" section in the Food desert article



Hi! Thank you for your edits on the food deserts article. I drafted some content to add to the "Causes of food deserts" section of the "Food Desert" article; however, because food deserts are primarily a Western concept, all the sources I found only gave potential causes of food deserts in the U.S. I also plan to create a new article titled "Food Deserts in the US" using some of the sections of the existing parent article (such as the initiatives section); would you recommend I add my drafted "causes" section into the existing "Food Desert" article or move it to the new article that focuses on the U.S?

Perry Index



I'm sorry to revert a fellow veteran editor, but in this case my original revert was of a new editor who claimed his changes were in line with the titles as quoted at http://mythfolklore.net/aesopica. I looked at the titles there and they were not so formatted. I agree with you that some capitalising conventions allow it for verbs, but Perry does not. Since it's his index, surely it makes sense to follow his usage? Sweetpool50 (talk) 08:21, 7 September 2024 (UTC)

You've been editing long enough to know the practice of just dumping random facts into an article with only a primary source to say they exist is deprecated by WP per MOS:MISC ↗.

Not "unwarranted"



Somehow I expected precisely this to happen. I have left a very long comment here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Cultural_appropriation#The_criticism_section,_part_deux explaining my reasons for removing the paragraphs I removed, and just to be absolutely on the safe side I left an edit summary saying ''"deleting irrelevant or low quality examples that do not improve the article. Please read relevant talk page thread before reverting."'' Yet you have reverted my deletion, calling it "unwarranted" and did not engage with any of my reasoning on the talk page.

I explained in great detail why the "Criticism" section for the Cultural appropriation ↗ article is bad, and this was not even the first time. I will assume this was a mistake and undo your restoration. I will politely ask you not to restore it a second time, without at least addressing the issues with the paragraphs first. 46.97.170.26 ↗ (talk) 19:55, 7 July 2025 (UTC)
