Khanoda

I saw your comment where you wrote: "PS This edit (and some others) of the author of all this stuff reminded me my childhood: when playing hide and seek, and nobody can find you for a long time, you get bored and make a noise to attract attention to be found....in vain..."

I'm sorry, after reading that, all I could think of was you as a kid playing hide and seek and everyone feigning to play along; only to leave you there hiding behind a tree for hours. LMFAO. By the way, Laudak, it's called promotion. And at the time when I created those wiki pages for Khanoda that's what I was doing. But then again, you're firm assessment that I would go through the time-consuming effort to create numerous pages as some kind of hoax, clearly indicates what a truly developmentally disabled, socially maladjusted, paranoid-neurotic you are. I guess after an abusive childhood where you were left "bored" and screaming from hiding places in order to be found must've played an integral part in that. Get well soon. LOL.

Wikipedia:List of wikipedia-related insults

Just to clarify:

• This page is not a listing of specific Wikipedians. It's a page of euphemisms about or referring to Wikipedians (as well as referring to Wikis and Wikipedia). As such, it doesn't belong in Category:Wikipedians.
• Category:Wikipedia Wikipediology - if you look over the category, you should see rather quickly why it's not appropriate here either.
• Category:Wikipedia as a media topic - Do you have a link showing that this list has been an article in the media? It looks simply like original research.
• Category:Wikipedia culture - You could possibly make an argument about this being added to rhis category of general essays, I suppose. But in looking over the page, it's clearly just a copy of a bunch of words taken from the urban dictionary. This isn't so much "culture", as a "List of X" page.

I previously removed the culture cat and left the media cat, I see now that that was incorrect.

I'm removing the first 3, and leaving the culture cat (for now). Be aware though that the page itself may be nominated for deletion if it doesn't develop into more than just a list of semi-associated words. - jc37 08:28, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

It is a list of quite well associated words. Laudak (talk) 23:18, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Humor: International Journal of Humor Research

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Humor: International Journal of Humor Research, 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 {{dated prod}} 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.

can you please explain this edit. It seems to that Shass Pollak does not directly relate to mishnah and should not be in the see also. Jon513 (talk) 17:57, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

As laudable as a goal as having the article improved it is not a valid reason for it to be placed in the see also. Shas can refer to either mishnah or talmud depending on the usages. By linking to shass pollak in a article about the mishnah is misleading. Jon513 (talk) 18:38, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Citations missing

Concerning your addition of the "citations missing" tag to several articles: The use of footnotes is not required by Wikipedia's citation policy. Technically, a list of sources at the bottom of an article is sufficient. It may not be the nicest way to do things, but that is what the community has upheld so far. If you want to use that template you should specify (on the article talk pages) which individual points you think should have footnotes. Otherwise, the template itself is of no use. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Kafziel ^{Complaint Department} 22:39, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I beg to disagree. Long articles actively edited by numerous anonymous editors without inline reference cause a natural suspicion in correctness. I don't think that peppering numerous statements with {{cn}} tags will look better. The articles in question are based mostly on opinions and conclusions of certain scholars on the subject, not just a description of, say, sun or copper which may be found in many places. These opinions/generalizations/conslusions must be properly attributed. YOu say "it is of no use". I beg to disagree: it brings attention to undercited article. As for the citation policy, I suggest you to see the guidelines for "good articles" and "featured articles". I don't think most of us be happy not having the articles in question not judged as "good" simply because our policies naturally very tolerant and favor content versus formality. But good articles must conform both content and formalism. Laudak (talk) 22:46, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

It's not a matter of disagreement. Wikipedia policy does not require footnotes. Everything must be verifiable, but it is not required to be neatly attributed. Suspicion or not, that's just the way it is. Guidelines are guidelines, but can not be forced on every article. This has already been addressed on the template's talk page.

I'm certainly not saying you shouldn't use the tag, and I'm not saying you should use {{cite}} tags instead. I'm just saying you should make a note on each talk page to list which specific passages you'd like to see footnotes for. If you do it that way, the tag is just as useful as {{cite}} but (as you said) looks much nicer for the average reader. If you don't do that, how will anyone know when enough footnotes have been added to remove the tag? Kafziel ^{Complaint Department} 22:56, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I understand your position. Please look into my contributions, and you will notice that I am not a bot driver who accumulates his edit count by liberally tagging whatever can be tagged. I came to these articles via chain of wikilinks and this series struck me as severely undercited. As to "when enough footnotes", this issue, as numerous other ones are judged by wikipedians' common sense. You cannot write a policy for each and every keyboard click. Finally, please consider that for many readers the information who said something is just as important as what was said, and it is not simply the matter of scholar courtesy. Especially, like I said, in the areas such as politics, sociology, etc. I understand that big fat tag on top does not look pretty, but long articles without a single footnote look unporfessional. Laudak (talk) 23:10, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I certainly didn't mean to give you the impression that I thought your edits were excessive; those articles' references could certainly use some improvement. The thing is, the only power that tag has is in its ugliness; since it isn't backed by policy, it doesn't have any clout unless specifics are mentioned. For example: Since we require citations to be provided on demand, and we also require (except for BLP) some notice before deleting large sections of articles, a {{cite}} tag that goes ignored for too long means the offending text can be deleted. But since there's no policy requiring footnotes, the {{citations missing}} tag can be ignored indefinitely and nothing can be done. Without a note of explanation on the talk page, it's just a tag for the sake of being a tag. Like {{cleanup}}, it doesn't say anything of value.

Obviously I can't make you do anything you don't want to do. But, considering how sparingly you've used it, it wouldn't be hard to specify a handful of passages in some talk page comments. Anyway, don't worry about it. I didn't mean to imply you were abusing the tags or anything like that. I'll try to take a look at the articles when I get the time.

Explained in edit summary. I respect your work to stick to the letter on the guideline, but description "computer term" is useless because it not a definition of the article subject. Laudak (talk) 15:13, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

That's the point: it doesn't have to be the definition, it just have to have the sufficient context to allow the reader to find the correct link. And it's NOT useless, because a computer term is clearly a different thing from an abstract strategy game, and from a trick card based game. --PeterCantropus (talk) 18:18, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Proof that permanent is sharp-P-complete.

Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors.

Ryan Higa and Sean Fujiyoshi

Hello,

I can understand why you are making the edits on Ryan Higa and Sean Fujiyoshi that you are making, but you are doing so on an incorrect principle. Namely, you are mistaken in that primary sources are allowed. Youtube most certainly is a reliable source for stats about Youtube. It does not require any original research to conclude they are the most subscribed Youtube channel, as Youtube itself tells up as much. We can discuss this on the article's talk page further if you want, just let me know. --ThaddeusB (talk) 02:23, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi Laudak, I'm Airplaneman. I feel that I have to raise this issue once more. Blanking relevant content instead of finding sources for them is not helpful. The entire video section was sourced, yet you removed it. Please consider finding sources for content that helps illustrate the subject of an article instead of removing it entirely. Thank you, Airplaneman ^talk 05:50, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

According to wikipedia policies, unreferenced original research may be removed at any time. Videos themselves are not valid reference for encyclopedic content. Laudak (talk) 05:56, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Is leaving it up against policy? I'm slowly working on getting refs. I was adding two more and got edit-conflicted, and decided not to save the edit and instead discuss it with you. I do not see why using videos for publication dates and overviews as well as information is against policy. See this explanation. I and others use the video sources with care and only when the info cited is contained within the source. I would like to restore the content and work with it further. Regards, Airplaneman ^talk 06:06, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Using a primary source for non-controversial information is perfectly acceptable. A list of the videos they've made can legitimately be sourced to the videos themselves and is not original research. --ThaddeusB (talk) 21:28, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

So what's the ppoblem, then? Please provide references and don't restore unreferenced information. Laudak (talk) 00:16, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

The video section IS sourced (to the videos themselves). This is perfectly acceptable since it isn't controversial information. Feel free to start a discussion on about if you disagree, but please stop removing it. --ThaddeusB (talk) 04:09, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} 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 {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Glenfarclas (talk) 01:51, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Cadet (genealogy)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Cadet (genealogy), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Cadet. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 19:31, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Micromania (video game retailer)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Micromania (video game retailer) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:41, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
