User:Amaury/Navbar

Hello! Welcome to my talk page!

Please feel free to to leave me a message, whether it's informing me of something
I screwed up, just to say hello, or anything else! I won't bite!

I have a few requests that I hope you'll respect while posting here:

  1. First and above all, be civil.
    • If you don't agree with an action I made, be it reverted you and left a warning, marked your page for deletion, or anything else, please be calm and polite. I am a reasonable man, and we'll straighten it out a lot quicker without screaming and name calling.
  2. Please sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~)
  3. Please start new conversations at the bottom.
  4. I generally like to keep conversations together.
    • If you post here, I'll reply here and leave you a message informing you of my reply.
    • If I leave you a message on your talk page, I'll keep watching it, but if you want to make sure I notice it quickly, leave me a {{talkback}} template.
      • I always keep conversations together. If we separate the messages, no big deal, I'll probably go back and cross post here.
  5. Start new discussions with a level three heading.

Since that is out of the way, please click here and leave a message!

Ugu article

Seeing this, I didn't know what was going on with that article, except that both passages had to be a mess. I looked in the edit history and fixed it. Flyer22 (talk) 00:53, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing it. - Amaury (talk) 01:08, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Hell Amuary,

We are actually making a Uncertainty Avoidance web page since we realized that there was no individual page entitled to uncertainty avoidance, feel free to look at it and let me know what you think and if you approve of my changes.

Pet Emergency Management

Hi- I'm new at wiki and have to post something to an article as an assignment for school. I was trying to add a few things to a Pet Preparedness article. Every time I post something and save it, it disappears. Help? EmergPet101 (talk) 03:29, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Other users are reverting you. You should contact them. - Amaury (talk) 03:35, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

I am adding information appropriately and not sure without understanding you administrators why are you reverting back my edits. Pls answer me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mohang.mysore (talkcontribs)

I didn't revert your edits. I gave you a warning because you made a personal attack. - Amaury (talk) 13:47, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

You're welcome

Racial segregation in the United States

ErikTylersYo (talk) 16:26, 4 June 2013 (UTC) the segregation page is about segregation, not about fighting for equality.

RE: Warning

You responded to my comment to Paul Erik. Don't you think that someone accusing me of possibly making defamatory statement (which I din not) and threatening to block me is far more egregious, than my reply.

I will post again to Rob Ford's page, and again provide the same information which is referenced. If I am not citing properly suggest the proper method, rather than deleting my edit with threats, and then having another member make further threats of blocking me. How absolutely lacking in proper decorum from a website up until now I have had the utmost respect for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.237.25.252 (talk) 05:06, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I don't care what your reasons are. Per WP:LEGAL, you should not make threats -- no matter what the circumstances are. - Amaury (talk) 05:09, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
Actually Amaury threatening from ever posting on wikipedia again because one user Paul Erik felt my edit was unreferenced, which I thought is was by provding the link to the ad IS THE ACTUAL THREAT made. Who the hell are you and Paul anyway treating people who come to this site to provide factual content? You are rude and shouldn't treat people in this manner. It is even mentioned in several areas on this site about treating new users with respect. So you and Paul should STOP threatening to block my access to editing articles, when I have done nothing whatsoever wrong. Oh and I learned how to sign....see patience and kindness go farther then BLOCKING THREATS....HochMeister (talk) 05:51, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
You should know that Paul is an administrator, by the way. (Not saying this to intimidate you. Just letting you know.) Also, you're free to discuss the issue with either me or Paul, but please be civil about it. Yelling at people won't get you anywhere and is not civil. - Amaury (talk) 05:56, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

User:Paul.colbert

You know you gave this editor a level 1 spam warning and then followed up a couple hours after with a level 4 without the user making any more edits, right? --NeilN 01:42, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

I've reverted the warning. Will issue one should it continue, though. - Amaury (talk) 01:44, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
Thanks. Yeah, I reverted all the ones in county articles. I think the user believes he is providing useful links but hopefully he'll discuss if he wants to re-add. --NeilN 01:49, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
Dear NeilN and Amaury, would you please clarify it to me? I corrected several Arizona county pages with proper sections formatting, and the links I added were not spammy at all. Please let me know which rules I broke, as I am new to this. Many thanks! Paul.colbert (talk) 11:16, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Your warning regarding mohammed amin

How do I request dispute resolution? I am new to Misplaced Pages, and made the edit after reading a published book, cited the material. User "I am one of many" is the one who started the "edit war" by constantly reverting my edits.24.130.62.57 (talk) 02:17, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

Making personal attacks is not the way to deal with it. You should bring up the issue at ANI. - Amaury (talk) 14:04, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
Last time I did that I was threatened illegitimately by a couple of trumped-up power mad freaks. No sale. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.31.208.198 (talk) 14:07, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
I don't see how warning someone that they could be blocked if they continue their behavior is a threat. It's not - Amaury (talk) 14:09, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
You obviously didn't read what they are writing, or you're just someone who doesn't care. I'm trying to work within the policies and every time I turn around one of you jerkwads pulls another thing out of thin air because you don't make any of this crap findable in the first place and use it to beat people over the head for your own sick amusement apparently. Misplaced Pages does not have firm rules. Misplaced Pages has policies and guidelines, but they are not carved in stone; their content and interpretation can evolve over time. Their principles and spirit matter more than their literal wording, and sometimes improving Misplaced Pages requires making an exception. Be bold, but not reckless, in updating articles and do not agonize about making mistakes. Every past version of a page is saved, so any mistakes can be easily corrected." But I guess that really doesn't mean crap when you have some power-mad freak around looking for someone to abuse, does it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.31.208.198 (talk) 6/7/2013, 7:13 AM GMT -7 (UTC)
You really need to be civil if you expect people to help you. - Amaury (talk) 14:15, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
Oh look more threats and he outright misrepresents the situation. http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Talk:Phyllis_Schlafly — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.31.208.198 (talk) 6/7/2013, 7:17 AM GMT -7 (UTC)

RE: Message

Thank you for your message! I will indeed find a citation source, and appreciate your having pointed out this need. Is there a reason we are to sign with the four tildes? (I'm new at this.)Vla1bp (talk) 00:03, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

I removed the release history, because i accidentally messed it up. It was the chrome for desktop release history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.6.129.62 (talk) 01:35, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

ITE College East

This is ITE College East we are not advertising or promotion, we are an institution and we are stating the information on our website. —Preceding undated comment added 03:17, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Then you have a conflict of interest. I've left you a message regarding that. - Amaury (talk) 03:22, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Paul Goldschmidt

So recently, today actually, this editor gave me a level two warning after posting a legitimate fact about the ballplayer. I understood the first warning because I was just making a fun edit. The second edit however, was a legitimate fact I felt had to be on the page the edit was; "In 2013, Goldschmidt made Diamondbacks history, becoming the first D-back to hit multiple grand slams in one road trip (One on June first against the Chicago Cubs and another on June fifth against the St. Louis Cardinals. Coincidentally, both were hit during the top of the seventh inning." now this guy tore this down and said "you need a legitimate source." wow.. okay.. like I would make this up. I am just a huge Diamondbacks fan who has seen every game this season and learned of this fact the night he hit the second grand slam. He just deleted it without even checking to see if the edit was fact. I mean did the guy even watch the games? As I'm on this talk page I can see that plenty of people are having this same complaint. I think it's ridiculous. Free speech. I can say ridiculous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by THEFIGHTINGAVENGER (talkcontribs) 05:31, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

In which case, you may have a conflict of interest. We keeps things in a neutral point of view here. - Amaury (talk) 05:35, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
While a source is needed or it is original research and it does indeed have to be written from a WP:NPOV, there is no WP:COI here. People write about what they are interested in and enjoy, if we start trying to make editors only write about things they don't care at all about, Misplaced Pages would be doomed :) Really, it is only a COI if the editor has something to personally gain by it, generally money and/or advertising themselves or their company.

RE: Revert

Amaury, that's my sandbox? No? I want to use it for other things. The content was a) already a duplicate and b) already rejected (cause its a duplicate). I've decided that I hate all this alternative universe stuff with wiki. It doesn't seem worth it. I can't email people directly, can't use my own sandbox, what a pain. Amaury, please help. Apparently I don't have a sandbox anymore?! Only an Article for Creation of an article I already created? No matter how I edit my sandbox it still says Article for Creation, same title. What is going on? Thanks! Sblafren (talk) 23:36, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

I think that I figured it out. There was redirect in my sandbox that oil me to a archive of my article draft everytime I clicked edit. I managed to click through and back to my sandbox and removed the redirect. Now my sandbox is usable again. I you think the duplicate draft of my already existing article needs to be restored. Please go right ahead. I have no idea how to do this. Thanks! Sblafren (talk) 23:43, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello. I've reverted the A7 speedy tag you added to Mirkot, as it clearly asserts notability. Captain Conundrum (talk) 02:21, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Music of Mexico

I have made edits to this article but I don't believe them to be unconstructive. The songs selection is from Un Canto De México a collection of Mexicos most well known songs.99.176.6.203 (talk)

It was a false-positive from me. I misread the edit. - Amaury (talk) 01:52, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for reverting the vandalism to my talk page. It shows I was right about the vandal, I suppose. Too bad these people do not use their time more productively. Donner60 (talk) 04:12, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Not a problem. And I agree. - Amaury (talk) 04:13, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Sir, what you don"t understand is that I rule this school therefore, it is accurate to say that Vineland High school is accurately represented by my change to "Darren High School"

Theravada Buddhism Reverts

You need to explain what is inappropriate about citing additional material from the Pali suttas that is relevant to the topic of attaining Nirvana before you revert. Also, what is inappropriate about citing additional secondary published work that is also relevant to the topic of attaining Nirvana?

If you are unable to explain why citing Pali suttas is 'inappropriate' in an article about Theravada Buddhism that is based on Pali sources, then you are the one that is engaging in inappropriate behavior. The goal is to 'improve' the quality of the content of each section, and it appears you are not interested in the content quality issue at all.
You're the one that wants to add these changes that weren't previously there; therefore, you should be raising a discussion on this to meet a consensus. - Amaury (talk) 06:12, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

Jessica Yee

Hi Amaury! Seeking your advice. It's true, I've been blanking Jessica Yee's page, and I know the consequences. But I'm a little desperate. I started the page but she contacted me in distress saying that she doesn't want it. Now, a year later, she tells me that misinformation on the page has been eliciting hate mail and even threats of violence. I'm extremely anxious to get it taken down. Can you help me? Thanks very much and kind regards.Siggy O'Hara (talk) 18:01, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Hm. I'm not exactly sure. I think your best bet would be to go to WP:AN/I and see if you can get responses from editors and / or administrators more experienced with WP:BLP. Hope this helps. - Amaury (talk) 18:10, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

RE: Advertising

Hi Amaury. I understand that you reverted my post to Sonication article in order prevent advertizing. However, the information I provided is objective and correct to the best of my knowledge. I feel it would be a shame to just delete it, I believe it adds value to the article. Would you consider just removing the references to the company and leaving the information in? I will leave it up to you, of course. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peshkovs (talkcontribs) 21:08, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

You can be bold and do it yourself. Just try not to make it promotional again. Cheers! - Amaury (talk) 21:12, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

The Dare Game

I'm sorry but in the Dare Game book, she is referred to as Mrs Vomit Bagley, not Mrs Emesis Bagley. Why do you insist on putting the wrong name on the page, and accusing people of vandalism when they put the correct name?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.147.209.210 (talk) 20:59, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

We were both wrong, the character really is called 'Vomit'. You might want to strike your warning here. Cheers,  Yinta 21:02, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

It looks like you've already done so. Thank you.  Done! And apologies to you, IP 86. - Amaury (talk) 21:05, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

For reverting the unconstructive edit on my userpage. With all the pages I'm watching, I wouldn't have noticed it for a very long time, so I appreciate you catching it! Why a kitten specifically? Because kittens are AWESOME!

Are you telling me that Doug Christie has returned from the grave? When did this miracle occur? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.70.39.226 (talk) 03:39, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

No, I'm telling you that you need to add sources. - Amaury (talk) 03:40, 15 June 2013 (UTC)
Wouldn't it have been more constructive for you to take the 5 seconds it would have taken to find them yourself? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.70.39.226 (talk) 03:43, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Techcrunch article

Hi, you messaged me about 'disruptive editing' - if you check the changes I made to TechCrunch you will see that the years-old information removed was of limited relevance even when it was current, which is those by-products were discontinued. Notnoteworthy (talk) 22:09, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Comment Removed

Excuse me? Please stop your accusations of me disturbing anything. I simply placed a comment on the wrong talk page and removed it when I realized the error. Is it against policy to fix errors? I don't appreciate threats based on false accusations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nakedwelsh (talkcontribs) 19:01, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Win (film)

Hello I'm Henzysharma. I understood the reason for removing the change to the article. I am sorry to have not provided a Citing Source will take care of it next time I edit a post. I changed it based on the information posted on the facebook id of the director of the film. I will re-add the change once the information is published. It will be helpful if you let me some examples of Citing Sources if possible for this subject. Henzysharma 23:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)


Donald Nally

My destructive editing of this page is merely trying to remove slander and unnecessary defamation from the page of an extraordinary professor and musician who has been barraged with false accusations of racism and insensitivity by an misguided graduate student. I would be happy to talk about this in a more private setting - Timothy is a scary, scary person and I fear for my safety should I discuss this more in this public forum.

Linkin Park

Linkin Park should be removed from the nu metal bands list. I know there are sources but they don't seem very credible. Anyone that puts them in the nu metal genre doesn't listen to the band AND other bands in the nu metal genre. They are VERY different. Bands like Korn(who pretty much started the genre of nu metal), Disturbed, System of a Down, Static-X, etc are nu metal bands. Linkin Park does not fit in the same genre as those true nu metal bands. --Jimv1983 (talk) 01:36, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

My edit on swami harideva's page

What I wrote was the truth as I was there and I find it strange that you would need to remove it.
