Holy Land Map

"A 1759 map entitled The Holy Land, or Palestine, showing not only the Ancient Kingdoms of Judah and Israel in which the 12 Tribes have been distinguished, but also their placement in different periods as indicated in the Holy Scriptures by Tobias Conrad Lotter, Geographer. Augsburg, Germany"

I can't understand Latin, so I was wondering if you could shed some light on a particular point regarding this map. I'm particularly interested in the phrase, "also their placement in different periods as indicated in the Holy Scriptures". Does the Map give an indication of any specific date(s) that it is supposed to depict?

Also, just out of interest regarding your last comment on the talk page, are you aware of any other articles that present a similar fanciful Map in a section dedicated to the actual history of a region. Thanks, Dlv999 (talk) 10:56, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Greg Parke (politician)

The article Greg Parke (politician) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Subject is not a notable politician, military officer or diplomat. Fails WP:POLITICIAN; WP:MILNG; WP:MILPEOPLE; WP:DIPLOMAT; WP:NRVE. Five bedroom bedroom B&B built by descendant of notable person seems more WP:SOAP.

While all contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

RfD about redirect you changed

Hi, there's currently an RfD going on about WP:ESSAY, which you retargeted, but I can't understand why you chose to do that. If you could comment on the issue, it would be helpful. --NYKevin @191, i.e. 03:35, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

Why I reverted your changes to Saros (astronomy)

Your math is just plain wrong. Dividing 6585.3213 / 18 tells us nothing about the period of the saros. You have to multiply the difference you found by 18 to get the correct figure. The correct calculation is 6585.3213/365.242199 (one year) which indeed yields 18 years 11 days. As I did a reversion you will need to re-insert the info about the Antikythera(sp?) mechanism. Thanks. --TimL (talk) 13:25, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

And here. And I'm apparently a Republican Party Reptile.--Shirt58 (talk) 11:24, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

My apologies. I was unaware that you had no interest in political satire. I shan't bother you further.--Shirt58 (talk) 10:03, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Kansas City Shuffle

Hello. In March of 2010 you edited Kansas City Shuffle and included a sentence that reads "The relevance to a direction stated at the beginning of a situation has no bearing to the outcome." Could you clarify that sentence, please? I don't understand what you were trying to say in that article. Thank you. 76.105.171.161 (talk) 07:12, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Well Done!

hey asshole, keep your retarded politics off Misplaced Pages, OK idiot? I know you're special needs but Wiki isn't for your political positions on groups, it's for facts. If you revert that article on OPSEC again, there will be consequences.

Well Done!

You have been awarded the Super Manliness Award for helping to construct a great encyclopedia.
