I don't know if it was me who removed the paragraph about South Buffalo bars, and I disagree that the article was better before I removed whatever sentences I removed. The article is poorly written, sometimes NPOV and completely unsourced. If the article is important to you, you should try to improve it.

Here are two examples of sentences I am removing today:

(1) Remember the animated watchman that came out of the shack holding a lantern when a train went past. (2) With the development of the waterfront from the Lake Erie end of Tifft St. going north to the Skyway Bridge has contributed somewhat to a revival of the area but the neighborhoods affected by the economic hard times were a number of miles from the waterfront area of South Buffalo.

An example of a neighborhood article you can model it on is here: University District, Seattle. All its sources are cited, and it is organized pretty well, but it is not always NPOV.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Rosary. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policy for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Thank you. Buddhipriya 01:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy; apologies if you think I was too harsh. What I read was "I think Java is too slow" -- which seemed like coming in with a preconception -- "and I'd like someone else to investigate this and report" -- which seemed like either a call for OR, or asking others to do work that you could do pretty much as well as anyone else if it's not OR.

Perhaps my best option at that point was to say "huh" and move on, and here I am passing up that opportunity again. But really, my impression from what you're saying is that you have decided that a serious number of programmers have been led down the garden path, and are looking for others to do the research to confirm or deny this.

A possible alternative for you might be to Google Java performance , pick some likely candidate sources, and cook up a paragraph or two and see how it's received. If you want to be less bold, try it on the talk page first. That way, I think it would feel less like you've got a random question you're throwing out there and more like you're part of the process. If you can't find anything obvious without too much trouble, you might want to reconsider your hypothesis. Java's been out there for a while, and unless there really is a Vast Java Performance Conspiracy, I'd expect there to be something out there about any problems that would make someone reconsider Java as the language for their project.--NapoliRoma 07:11, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Earlamyotte.jpg. 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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

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. 22:06, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

I reverted your re-insertion of the activities of that particular group in the Earl Amyotte article. I believe them to be not in keeping with our policy of neutrality. If you disagree I'd rather not get into a thing, so perhaps we might discuss how best to word the edit. regards Xdenizen (talk) 04:11, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Fine. Have it your way. Be well, Xdenizen (talk) 04:26, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Rosary. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted.

Hi Roesser, I reverted your changes in memristor... I don't disagree with your premise. But it would be a good idea, if you're going to claim something is "excessively slow" for some reason, to say more about the reason and to give a numerical order of magnitude for speed. I already did both those things in a new paragraph under the Titanium dioxide memristor section... do you believe something is still missing? Potatoswatter (talk) 02:25, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing, such as the edit you made to Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/LinkReports/pe.com. If your vandalism continues, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. β^_command 17:43, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I put the disamb in because I searched for "sat nav" and expected to find something about TomToms etc. The page was singularly unhelpful, with no obvious link to anything helpful. This isn't optimal, surely! How to remedy this? best wishes, Robinh (talk) 07:06, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey I'd like to know the reasons for undoing my edit more precisely. Btw, i'm the 189.102.144.200. You claimed that 'Sentence does not explain how position is determined', but thats not the objective right there - and the old phrase also doesnt explain anything about the position calculus itself. This could be innapropriate (to throw loci interection formulas) in this section. Please compare:

"The receiver has, conceptually, a set of solutions for his positions within a sphere for each satellite, so by increasing the number of satellites and knowing their position precisely, it is possible to calculate the receiver's own position - a intersection of spherical solution sets."

and

"The receiver uses the arrival time of each message to measure the distance to each satellite, from which it determines the position of the receiver (conceptually the intersection of spheres..."

My ajust, in the first one, just clarifies about how gps operates.

And aAbout the image, I were in doubt myself too. But when making them, I noticed 4 spheres would be unclear - If I put 4 spheres, I would need (explained later) to put earth, as it is another solution constrainer for that set - and i suposedly dont know my exact altitude, Earths radius and satellites relative position to it at anytime. However, making that big sphere I can show clearly and allegorically the satellites, as little spheres themselves, and a bigger sphere, which I believe that has to be, inevitably, opaque, for simple visualisation issues. However, it is also inevitably easier to percieve the visible intersection as the receiver's position, which is highlighted in a small box - the point of intersection of the spheres, each one comprising all the points in 3-d space at a distance from them.

Moreover, more detailed explanation seems to be given at "Position calculation advanced" section.

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Database management methods, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Database management methods has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Database management methods, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

I have conducted a reassessment of the above article as part of the GA Sweeps process. I have found some concerns which you can see at Talk:Catholic social teaching/GA1. I have placed the article on hold for seven days. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:48, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to CMMI. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write practically anything you want. Dilbert is not a reliable metric to assess CMMI, thank you. Pm master 14:27, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

You may have noticed I reversed your edit to No Left Turns‎. The reason for doing so is the edit you reversed is allowed by WP:CSD. Anyone other than the author of the article can remove a CSD from the article. ttonyb (talk)

Well I certainly agree with your action (reversing my undo of the removal of the CSD). but you yourself did the same thing (restored the CSD). Anyway, now that you effectively removed the CSD all is well Roesser (talk) 00:42, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're free to nominate the article for deletion. I declined the speedy deletion because the article makes a plausible claim of importance, and that's all it needs to avoid the kind of speedy deletion is was tagged for. Nyttend (talk) 00:46, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nyttend, I do not want to see this article deleted (speedily or otherwise). I undid your decline of speedy deletion only because I thought it was an affront to Ttonyb1 who nominated it for CSD, but Ttonybi convinced me that I was wrong. Any, I now see that Safiel nominated it for deletion, which I'm now going to oppose Roesser (talk) 02:35, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Roesser. You have new messages at Ttonyb1's talk page.

Hello Roesser, I noticed that the article was redirected. If you're still interested in developing the article, I'd like to suggest that you incubate the full article as it was before redirected. When an article is incubated, members of WikiProject Conservatism can work on the article and bring it up to standards. All you have to do is move No Left Turns to WP:WikiProject Conservatism/Incubator/No Left Turns. Let me know if you have any questions (I'm watching your talk). – Lionel ^(talk) 11:15, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lionel, I certainly would welcome the restoration of No Left Turns and would incubate it if I could, but I'm not a major author of it and I don't have access to the way it was before it was deleted. BTW why isn't World Book a reliable source? Roesser (talk) 01:28, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You can look here for a version you would like to incubate: [1]. Perhaps this version, without the tags, would do [2]? Regarding World Book, now that I've looked it up, it might work to support your position. See [3]. Let me know if I can assist you further, TTFN – Lionel ^(talk) 01:44, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lionel, ok I incubated it. Thanks for the suggestion to do so. Roesser (talk) 02:24, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good job!!! And, you're welcome. If you like, you can invite members to help improve it here. Good luck! – Lionel ^(talk) 03:01, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Robert Foulk, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Barbara Slater (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly ^hi! 04:29, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No big deal — that's just an article that explains the rosarium or corona rosea in Roman culture. Alanus de Rupe objected to the use of the word rosarium for the rosary because the term came from the "pagan" tradition and brought those associations with it. The Rosalia was also known as the Rosaria (plural of rosarium) as an observance using rose wreaths. Just wanted to explain that it wasn't intended to be random. Cynwolfe (talk) 23:39, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Your explanation sounds good, but the Rosalia article explains that the word refers to a Roman festival (which definitely has pagan association), whereas rosarium is defined as a rose garden or perhaps crown of roses. I suppose rosaria is the plural of rosarium, so it would refer to rose gardens not a festival. Anyway to disguise a wikilink by giving it a different visible name as you did seems, with all due respect, to be an abuse. Roesser (talk) 00:01, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:Robert foulk.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

ATTENTION: This is an automated, bot-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:07, 3 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
