Jayjg/Archive 7== Regarding Account Suspension. == This query is for the administrator Jayjg. To Jayjg: I may have mistakingly used an explicative in: Talk: Evil. Is this the reason for my ''user page vandal'' status? My number is: 152.163.100.201 --User:Scroll1 00:52, 17 May 2005 (UTC) == You might want to keep an eye on "contributions" by... == User:Courage - not sure what he/she is up to, but he/she has expressed a desire to fight my extreme "Jewish POV" --User:Leifern 00:52, May 18, 2005 (UTC) ==School VfD's== Hi, I've noticed that you've voted to delete a number of articles on elementary schools and the like. Can I get you to take a moment and refocus you energies? Take a gander at :Category:sitcoms, this entire category is filled with articles on un-encyclopaedic trivia and grunge about non-noteworthy TV shows. Surely some Joe Blow Middleschool with an enrollment of 50 in the middle of Sticksville Arizona is more noteworthy of a WP writeup than some dorky TV show? I mean, sure, TV is fun, but its not ''important''. Schools are important, they're the machinery that turn children into adults. These children are going to be maintaining WP long after you and I are dead of old age; why dis them and the people who teach them? If you want a hunting ground for non-notable junk on WP that needs a decent VfD, just start by VfD'ing Gilligan's Island, and go from there. User:Linas 20:05, 18 May 2005 (UTC) :Hi, Saw your reply. So what if schools are a "dime a dozen"? So are TV shows. If you literally are comparing the monetary budgets of schools to the budgets of TV shows, I think TV shows are cheaper to produce; TV show budgets run in the millions of dollars. If you are talking about time, then if one million people watch one TV show for one hour, that's a million hours. If you have a shool which enrolls 100 students a year for 10 years, and each student takes 5 hours of classes a day for 200 days a year, that's a million hours of schooling. So in terms of raw hours of a human lifetime devoted to that thing, even teeny-weeny little schools are a match for many TV shows. Schools and teachers have a bigger impact on popular culture than any TV show could ever hope to have. As to confusing "notable" and "important"; if something is important, then it is by definition notable, right? User:Linas 20:39, 18 May 2005 (UTC) You wrote: :Are parents important? Is every single one of them notable? Should we have an encylopedia article on each one? User:JayjgUser_talk:Jayjg 20:45, 18 May 2005 (UTC) ::Naively, the answers are "yes", "yes", and "yes". There's a huge database of geneological info at the Church of the Later Day Saints. But I'm not really into geneology that much. User:Linas 21:00, 18 May 2005 (UTC) OK, so given that we were originally talking about VfD's, I assume this was supposed to be a sarcastic or rhetorical question? And that remark about so-called "vanity pages", is that supposed to be a veiled threat to VfD my user page? So what if I'm vain? I don't think that makes my user page a candidate for VfD. User:Linas 21:33, 18 May 2005 (UTC) :OK I just saw your post. I don't think that threatening user pages is an appropriate behaviour. That's just plain wrong. I'm so very sorry that you think my user pages are "vanity pages" and are not wikipedia material, but it is my understanding that user pages pages are more or less under the control of the user. Go ahead and VfD them. I think you are way wrong, and have seriously overstepped norms of behaviour. User:Linas 21:39, 18 May 2005 (UTC) I'm not dumb. You posted the following on my talk page: :And yet, Wikipedia has rules against articles on most individuals, unless they are notable in some way. In fact, articles on people who haven't done anything particularly unusual are considered "vanity". Don't say that you didn't post this, and that you don't know what I'm talking about. We were talking about deletion policy, and the votes for deletion of various elementary and middle schools. And right in the middle of that conversation, you decide to change the topic to so-called "vanity pages". I have one big giant vanity page. Duhhh. As you have WP admin priveledges, this gives you a variety of power that I do not have, including the ability to delete users, and lord knows what else. I think you are abusing your powers by running around bullying people. This is absolutely the wrong kind of behaviour for a wikipedia admin to engage in. User:Linas 23:06, 18 May 2005 (UTC) :: Forgive me for interjecting, but this is getting too hot, and for no reason. I certainly do not see how User:Jayjg threatens to delete Linas's page. User:Jayjg was obviously referring to encyclopedia articles about people, and not to user pages. User:Oleg Alexandrov 02:13, 19 May 2005 (UTC) OK, I don't want this to continue. But I think there's a pretty strong reason. The ostensible topic is about schools. And then, kaboom! this is posted to my talk page: :Are parents important? Is every single one of them notable? Should we have an encyclopedia article on each one? Jayjg (talk) 20:45, 18 May 2005 (UTC) OK, so he guesses I'm a parent? Makes sense, why else would I care about grade schools? This is a rhetorical question. Of course parents are important. Of course they are all notable. Yes, everyone deserves a WP page. So why is the question even being asked? We find out why in the next post: :And yet, Wikipedia has rules against articles on most individuals, unless they are notable in some way. In fact, articles on people who haven't done anything particularly unusual are considered "vanity". Jayjg (talk) 21:13, 18 May 2005 (UTC) Ah, OK, so WP has rules against individual pages. Great. I've got a big individual page. OK, so I'm reading these guidelines about vanity pages. So I dunno, does my page qualify as "vanity"? It makes me ill to even look at these guidelines. Lets see, its written by me... it talks about all the great things I'm thinking about. I think its reasonable, but he's basically implying that I "haven't done anything particularly unusual". Well, that's pretty insulting in itself. Why is the conversation now focused on vanity pages? In what way, exactly is that ''not'' an insult coupled to a threat to delete? Well, now I see strong protestations on my talk page: my page is not a vanity page after all. Well golly. Are we back-pedaling as fast as we can now, or what? Grrrrr. User:Linas 04:48, 19 May 2005 (UTC) ==Edits on Wikipedia:Missing Wikipedians== Jay, please stop reverting the edits on Wikipedia:Missing Wikipedians and yes they are missing and you are gonna accept it.

Some posters are very fickle on any editions to it because it is a featured article; at least that is what I think is happening. I have added some information regarding the reasons for his arrest, and his protest against the bombing of the Osiraq nuclear reactor in 1981. There appears to be an arrogant or at least overcatious streak in some posters to erase any new information in this article, even if it is documented and sourced. I always value your imput, so if you have the time, please comment on how to improve the article and my edits there. Thanks, User:Guy Montag 03:10, 14 May 2005 (UTC) *If you want my opinion, Jayjg, he is pushing POV edits. He has been reverted by a number of respected users.

Both of these places are in 'Ireland', hence my alteration --User:Irishpunktom\User_talk:Irishpunktom *Jay... Belfast is in Ireland. Simple Geography. * Thanks for the little Jerusalem edit though! Reminds me of a line from the Simpsons. --User:Irishpunktom\User_talk:Irishpunktom :: As well and true as you may believe that to be, fact is I never said he was born in Dublin, I said he was born in Ireland, which you described as "an error", which surely even you can admit was wrong.. or can you? --User:Irishpunktom\User_talk:Irishpunktom == Kibbutz == Hello! I noticed you have already reverted an edit on article kibbutz, so I think you would probably want to know that someone by the IP of 67.170.56.52 just vandalized the article, something I actually never had seen before here in Wikipedia.

Thanks User:IZAK 10:26, 19 May 2005 (UTC) :Jay? Why does this article still exist? The VfD was opened May 19, which as I read it was 11 days ago. The VfD has not been even mildly contentious, and, given that the article is sheer (and rather ridiculous) fantasy, I see no reason why the the VfD wasn't changed to a speedy delete. In fact, the last vote cast on was on May 24, which was, itself, almost a week ago. Meanwhile the article has been mirrored to a hundred other sites, and will probably soon enter the lore of the likes of Jew Watch (who will probably use the article's deletion as proof of the existence of the "Yehudei Sheqolenique", and characterize the article's deletion as proof of Khazars trying to erase all non-Ashkenazim, blahblahblah...) User:TShilo12 User talk:TShilo12 18:12, May 30, 2005 (UTC) Well, for now at least, I've removed it from List of Jewish history topics#Y. Incidentally, I'm surprised nobody has asked User:Charles Matthews whence he got the information that led him to create this article in the first place... User:TShilo12 User talk:TShilo12 19:03, May 30, 2005 (UTC) :Ah. You are, of course, correct. I neglected to take the time to look at the times, and just saw that it'd been moved from its original at Sample yehudei sheqolenique by Charles_Matthews.

I might restrict my actions to the weekend, though, because I work now (before, I was a student, or looking for a job). When I posted on Talk:Germany that I was leaving the page, I was hoping that it would be a wake-up call to those who still believe we should do our best to improve wikipedia. So I'll gladly join the Germany community again. Also: Thank you for contacting me.

I took some of the information that was there, found many more sources and added a lot of new information to it as well. It took me and others a long time to gather the info that was recovered. Can you please let us finish our work, as I cannot accomplish anything when you keep deleting it. It was suggested that the page be revised and reposted. If there is anything I can do to make this article more suitable to your liking, please let me know. Thanks --User:Cantors 20:28, 23 May 2005 (UTC) :The problem last time was that sources were not quoted properly. Many people have taken this work under their auspices, working long hours researching and composing a well thought out article about this individual. A lot more information was gathered since the old article appeared. It has taken much time, money, and effort to find out additional material. All sources are clearly listed in the article. The article is still in its developmental stages, and I request that just as you would want courtesy given to research that you have done, that likewise courtesy be given to the other researchers of this piece. Thank you.--User:Senator 20:47, 23 May 2005 (UTC) ::Tomer had suggested to revise the article and add reliable sources.--User:Merlinzor 20:50, 23 May 2005 (UTC) I am disturbed that this is being characterized by User:Cantors as "[his] project". The continued, albeit increasingly sophisticated, sock puppetry is also disturbing. I don't care if it's one person or 20 people, the article, as it was, was HORRIBLY flawed. By the end of the discussion that went into the VfD, I was actually almost convinced that possibly Cantor Képecs ''might'' be sufficiently noteworthy to warrant a WP article, but COMPLETELY convinced that the sockpuppetmaster Merlin/zor et al. are too compromised in honesty to be trusted with writing it. Concerning the effort that it is claimed has gone into compiling a "better" article, I have to question the motivation behind it. As I said, I was ''almost'' convinced that ''possibly'' this fellow ''might'' warrant an article. Spending long hours and spending a great deal of money in composing an article is inconsistent with that judgment. That said, I'm not the only with a voice on the matter. Now on the question of what the "problem last time was". It was not that sources were not quoted properly as Sockpuppet Senator says. It's interesting, but not even remotely surprising, that Sockpuppet Merlinzor shares Sockpuppet Senators mistaken notion on this point, and that they should think to characterize it as ''my'' suggestion. In fact, I don't recall that ''any'' sources were actually quoted in the article. What I ''do'' recall is that a bunch of newspaper clippings were scanned and, in violation of copyright law, inserted into the article...and that, in a horribly slipshod fashion. As for reliable sources, I think a better characterization of what I was looking for would be noteworthy reliable sources. The Newtown Bee does not qualify. Now, for what I ''actually'' recommended, it was that the sockpuppetmaster be given the content of the article and its talk page after the article's deletion. Whatever s/he does with it is of little concern to me, but I ''will'' be just as insistent that any future article dwelling on this individual meet the standards of relevance and accuracy as I would insist upon for any other WP article.
