User:Niteowlneils/MyWebSites Music I User:Niteowlneils/music I've been editing Wikipedia since 23 February 2004. I have been averaging 300-700 edits per week, but that number will drop considerably June 2, 2004, when I start working at a new contract job. Update: As of the end of December 2004, I'm unemployed again--great for my Wikipedia editing and everything else, except my bank account. :/ I made my 15,000th edit 17:04, 7 Feb 2005. I initially did Special:Recentchanges patrol, but since then have mostly done Special:Newpages patrol, and occasionally Random page patrol. Being an introvert IRL, the pattern continues here--I rarely leave "welcome" messages.

FAQ (answers to frequently asked questions): *You seem to be reviewing all my edits {or words to that effect}? :That may or may not be true, but you shouldn't worry about it or take it personally. Most of my time on Wikipedia is spent running thru lists of articles checking for light 'housekeeping' issues--format, punctuation, grammar, typos, etc. Where I get the lists is pretty immaterial to me--sometimes they're from Newpages, sometimes Recent changes, sometimes 'what links here', sometimes from other people's contrib lists, etc.--I've used all those sources and others multiple times, and will probably continue to do so, as I get bored editing from lists from just one of the sources. It is also possible that it is just coincidence--if you added or changed a bunch of articles in a row, I may encounter all of them working Newpages or Recent changes lists, etc. *Why do you put a comma before 'and' and 'or' in a serial list (serial comma)? :Per Wikipedia Manual of Style: Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Commas [I am aware there is a proposal to change this, but I don't want to have to check the status of that proposal every day. Besides, over 4 years and 500,000 articles into the project I think is WAY too late to be making such sweeping changes, at least without a very compelling reason, and I see no such compelling reason in this case.] *Why do you make most words in headers all lowercase? :Per Wikipedia Manual of Style: Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_%28headings%29#Capitalisation *Why do you not speedy delete orphan redirects? :Redirects from common misspellings and alternate spellings, capitalizations (EG Uss wadsworth for USS Wadsworth), words, or phrases help users of the Search box find what they're looking for, as well as prevent accidental duplication of existing articles. For example, note the redirs to Mahatma Gandhi[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Whatlinkshere&target=Mahatma_Gandhi]. Relevant guideline: Wikipedia:Redirect#What_do_we_use_redirects_for.3F I am registered at a couple other Wikipedias, but this is the only one I'm likely to see messages on in any reasonable time frame.

I assumed we might be dealing with a youngster when I saw the lack of understanding of a major hit of 1968. Here's hoping he responds to the offers of help and the advice. - User:Lucky 6.9 05:40, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) ==Tutorial overhaul== Might be time for an overhaul of the Tutorial. Someone commented on Wikipedia talk:Tutorial (Wrap-up and more info) that the Tutorial is a pretty rough ride now, and I'm inclined to agree. It's gotten significantly longer, both in number and length of pages. I think we should try to pare it down a bit, condense some discussion, and maybe remove topics that aren't truly crucial to newcomers (like U.S. vs. British English). The shorter it is, the more people will actually read it. User:Isomorphic 02:58, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) :Also, I don't think we cover categories at all, and we definitely should. I shouldn't be the person to write about categories though, because I've never really understood what they're good for. User:Isomorphic 03:09, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) ::There haven't actually been any pages added since near the beginning, but we started at only 7 or 8, and I was never completely happy with the jump to 11. It's a tough balance between coverage and brevity, but I think feature creep has pushed us too far in one direction. ::As for the advanced guide, I could definitely see value in having a Wikipedia:Guide to maintainance and cleanup and a Wikipedia:Writers' guide. The first could cover things like cleanup, VfD, categorization, image tagging, and so on. The second could be a more in-depth guide on how to write a good Wikipedia article: sectioning, spinning off large sections into new articles, appropriate linking, writing style. If you get started on either one, let me know and I'll pitch in if I'm around. Right now, I'm off to play chess and then probably to bed. User:Isomorphic 05:26, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) == 3RR == Could you take a look at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RR#Violations at the second subsection entitled User:Neutrality? Snowspinner has unblocked Neutrality, which I think is great--I'm all about mercy. But under the circumstances, including Neutrality's violation of block policy as noted, it does not seem the right thing to do in this situation. Of course, I am biased, but I do not think Neutrality was truly unaware of the fact that "partial" reversions counted; nor should he claim ignorance of the block policy. Thank you. User:24.245.12.39 03:30, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC) *Thank you for the reply. User:24.245.12.39 04:29, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Be careful == I assume that you overwrote my para (''The Pope, who...'') by accident?

On another note, please consider moving your old talk to archive. --User:Piotrus User_talk:Piotrus 19:41, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC) == conflicts going on Nation of Islam == There are an active conflict going between 2 writers on the Nation of Islam article. This article is on the outer edge of my interest area, but I have been trying to be a little bit of a referee. The two users are User:Firebug and User:RK. They have has an edit war going and RK is claiming that he/she feels threatened. Can you look at my talk page User Talk:Vaoverland and perhaps give me a suggestion about what to tell him? I can check back here if you'd rather not leave a message there and get caught up in what seem to me like foolishness. == NOI edit war == I think that is good advice. My guess is that neither will take it. At least i can go on record with a suggestion. I didn't read any "threats" as such either, although the edit war is moving toward ridiculous. I am waiting for advice from one other, and then I will probably follow your suggestion. This is not my area of strength, and I will be careful not to get pulled too far in. In describing all this as foolishness and ridiculous, I mean the behavior on WP, not the beliefs that seem to be the driving force for these users. Thanks. Mark in Richmond.

As for that Nizoral thing, I see what you mean. In fact, some of the "how-to" found its way into that other article on the medicine itself. I agree it should be a merge/redirect. Off to change my vote. - User:Lucky 6.9 06:46, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Chicago == Sorry to hear you're disappointed with me. Could you show me the relevant policy article? Without this, I would say that as Chicago is overwhelmingly used for that windy city, there is to need to specify the state. User:Jfdwolff | User_talk:Jfdwolff 09:19, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC) Niteowlneils, I really believe, that the article sould be just under Chicago, not Chicago, Illinois. For starters, the peer-review's link to the city article is just Chicago, and, although I am from the Midwest myself, I have never heard it called Chicago, Illinois ''once''. Every time I have heard just "Chicago", it was in reference to the city. Several ''hundred'' articles link to just "Chicago". I am aware that the same number of articles link to "Chicago, Illinois", but many of them were linked to there after the name change. Thus I believe this article's name should just be ''Chicago'', and also, the Chicago (disambiguation) page's link to the city is just ''Chicago''. While cities like Fairfield, Iowa for example should stay "city x, state y", cities as famous and large as Chicago should just be "city x". And also, just because its been at Chicago, Illinois for the past four years doesn' mean its imbedded in stone. Past usages aren't always right. Woman suffrage was denied for hundreds of years before it was legalized in 1920. Sincerely, User:Dralwik 15:00, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC). From Talk:Chicago, Illinois: ::I think that's a valid suggestion to move Chicago, Illinois to Chicago, at a certain point a city becomes large enough that its no longer directly associated with the state its in. 'Chicago, Illinois" should probably redirect to "Chicago." --User:Jleon 02:08, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC) ::: I agree as well. Something else that should be considered is the renaming of the City category. Right now that is up for debate. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Chicago. User:Jasenlee 22:32, Apr 16, 2005 (UTC) Niteowlneils, lets put it to a vote on Talk:Chicago, Illinois: Chicago or Chicago, Illinois?

User:Adam Carr 01:23, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Thanks for your work == Thanks for all the little edits you've been doing - adding categories, formatting, etc. From the mass amount of activity on my watchlist lately, I have a feeling you've been through my contributions list or something (some of my articles are pretty obscure), and while that is a little creepy :P, thanks anyway. It's the little things that I always stuff up. 08:01, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC) ==FDR== *The note you keep placing at the head of the article is on far too trivial a matter to warrant such prominence. This is not an article about the acronym "FDR". I have provided a link to that article, and that is sufficient. It is not as if there is any other common use of the acronym. *Nor is this an article about the FDR Memorial. It is mentioned in the text in the context of FDR's disability, but the details of the opening of the Memorial etc belong in the relevant article, not here. User:Adam Carr 01:16, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC) Top of the page disambiguation is fine when it is disambiguating the topic of the article. It is silly when it creates the situation when the ''first thing'' people read when they open the Roosevelt article is a line about an extremely minor and trival matter not directly connected with the topic of the article. His name was not FDR. If people want to know more about the acronym "FDR" they can follow the link, which is not an "easter egg," since it takes them to an article about that topic. It is not POV to say that some things are more important than other things. In the context of this article, the other possible meanings of the acronym is an ''extremely'' minor matter and does ''not'' belong at the top of the article. I find the Wikipedia fetish for littering articles with irrelevant trivia ''very'' annoying and am going to insist on this point. User:Adam Carr 02:48, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC) I have redirected FDR to FDR (disambiguation) so that people looking for "FDR" are not taken directly to the Roosevelt article. That removes the need for a separate disambiguation in the article. User:Adam Carr 02:55, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC) (PS Please archive your Talk page) == Sorry == Hey man, sorry for all the trouble.

On the pages Medicaid, State Children's Health Insurance Program , and Medicare (United States), another new user named KevinPiper has inserted external links to the Piper Report on Health Care. In a broad sense, this link is relevant but it isn't specifically focused like the other external links. I'm also troubled b/c the username indicates KevinPiper is the author of the Piper Report on Health Care. I searched through the Wikipedia FAQs and couldn't find any guidelines on this. Can you provide any guidance? Thanks, User:Alabamaboy 16:30, 6 May 2005. Thanks for the very helpful information and guidance on this issue.

User:Vaoverland 20:47, May 6, 2005 (UTC) :I am reminded of the frustration of young and confused Holden Caulfield in J.D.

Have you been experiencing the same problems, or is it just me? Rgds, User:Rich Farmbrough 22:37, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC) That's the one, although 2 or 3 isn't myu experience, more like 20! I wondered if some kind of edit throttling is in place... User:Rich Farmbrough 22:52, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC) == Thank you thank you thank you == Many thanks for adding the pictures to the McEwen and Smith articles. I am grateful. User:PedanticallySpeaking 14:36, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC) == Thank You == Re:Old pages You may be interested in Wikipedia:Wikipedia's oldest articles and History of Wikipedia, just a couple of the pages I have listed at User:Niteowlneils#Pages_that_take_forever_to_find_and_tools. In general, questions like that are better posed at Wikipedia:Village pump or Wikipedia:Reference desk. User:Niteowlneils 04:10, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC) *well thanks for telling me, and sorry but id never heard of the "village pump" or "reference desk", but i will use them in future. Thanks! User:Supersaiyanplough 05:51, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC) == Blue Monday page move == Since your support of the requested page move at Talk:Blue Monday (New Order song) was conditional, I would like to request that you reconsider that support. The article at Blue Monday is now a proper Wikipedia:disambiguation page, and there are newly created articles on the George Gershwin operetta at Blue Monday (opera), and the Fats Domino song at Blue Monday (Fats Domino song) (and I'll probably end up creating another article for the Blue Monday graphic novel series). BTW: I did the same Locks for Love thing, donating approx. 15" of my ponytail at a SF convention several years ago. User:BlankVerse User talk:BlankVerse 08:20, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC) :Thank you for reconsidering your vote in the Blue Monday page move survey. (BTS: It turns out I didn't have to create the Blue Monday (comic) article--someone from Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics added it.) User:BlankVerse User talk:BlankVerse 15:35, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC) == bio-stub == As part of the WP:WSS project, I am currently trying to categorise the articles. You have this stub in your user page. This category is currently very large and removing your page from it would help this effort. Could you please remove the template (or subst it and remove the category link) so that your page no longer appears in the category. Thanks. --User:TheParanoidOne 18:32, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC) :Thanks for doing that. --User:TheParanoidOne 22:05, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
