	== Riverside High School for Engineering and Design - slide show GIF ==

	Hi. I hope you are having pleasant holidays.

	I just stumbled across ] (in Yonkers, where a ] has been doing a lot of edits related to public schools).

	I've never before seen a Misplaced Pages article illustrated by a slide show. I don't like it, and I'm wondering if there is a policy (or a set of guidelines) on this sort of thing somewhere. (I haven't been able to find any such.) You know more about media usage than I do, so I figured I'd start off by asking you.

	There's also a possibility that the slide show is a copyvio, but I haven't found it on the school website yet. --] (]) 22:09, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
	:Hi, you too. I tweaked so it's not at the top-left. I still don't like it either but it's better than no image at all (I guess). You don't even need to find the full animated gif - if any of the individual shots are copyvio, then the whole thing would have to go. If you have a decent image program (which I don't in all honesty - although I may be getting one from Santa!), then you could probably separate the animated gif into individual images and re-upload. <span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: Times New Roman;">] ]</span> 03:14, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

	== major league franchises, etc ==

	Hi!

	i've just read about as much as i could of the HEEOOUUGE discussion you had ] between 18-23 Oct and i have to say...you hit the nail right on the head with your first couple of paragraphs alone!

	you see, i tried to re-start an identical discussion ] about a week before you (11 Oct) but i guess we missed each other!

	mine never really took off as much as yours, tho.

	since you appear to be much better at arguing than me (i tend to go for the calmly-calmly approach, whereas the ''fuck you, this is what i think'' approach seems to work quite well for you!), here's the crux of my argument which you can use next time you argue with your detractors, because i think got omitted in your discussion:

	my argument: there's no "NEED" for ALL previous incarnations of teams to IMMEDIATELY HAVE-TO-HAVE have their own articles; rather, if anyone WANTS to make a split-off article with the full info on, say, Brooklyn, they should be ALLOWED TO DO IT.

	ie. there's no "NEED" for all 29 franchises to "HAVE TO" follow the example of Montreal, but we merely need to PROTECT THE RIGHTS of potential editors WHO FEEL THEY WISH to split off an article.

	see!

	if this one simple rule is followed, then such splits will happen '''gradually''' and '''naturally'''.

	because i think that's what most of the detractors are afraid of - that if this "rule" is imposed, then all hell and damnation will be let loose. but no. as long as people have something to say on an old team, let them; if they dont, then we can always leave it for later and someone else who feels they can do it properly.

	and i have to say, i got quite miffed at the contributor on your discussion who gave the proctor and gamble analogy, as i deal with this particular point on my page - that there IS a difference between sports franchises and all other kinds...the FANS.

	anyway - i think your arguments helped, for now anyway, as the Brooklyn Dodgers article has at least been to "History of the Dodgers" rather than to "LA Dodgers", which got overridden even after i'd tried to write a reasonably succinct version of it in . keep up the good work.

	hope i've helped!

	Cheers, and take care!

	] (]) 23:01, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
	:Well, I'm not sure ''that's'' my approach exactly... It was more that I was waiting for someone to give a good reason to oppose - one that even I could get behind - but I never heard one. I ''still'' don't like the "History of Brooklyn Dodgers" title, but it's as good a compromise as I could muster. It covers my main complaint of having older incarnations hopelessly and increasingly under-represented. I could not - and still cannot - understand the idea that having a separate article somehow tricks or misleads the reader into thinking it is a separate franchise. It's hard to say if your argument would alleviate ''that'' concern, but it is definitely an argument that should help pull a discussion to a middle ground, and I will use it in the future. For the "misleading" concern, one could direct the detractors to look at the existing Dodgers and Giants splits, and honestly say whether they sound misleading. I haven't heard ''anyone'' say they do.
	:Thanks for the advice! The key to a good discussion is to draw in as many people as possible. That way, you're more assured that you get the right answer - whether it's the one you wanted or not. <span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: Times New Roman;">] ]</span> 03:50, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

	== Happy New Year! (Or is it so new, after all?) ==

	Happy New Year! You probably have noticed the OTRS ticket regarding . That website says "The newrochellenews.info website is a collaborative effort of the Huguenot and New Rochelle Historical Association, the New Rochelle Preservation Society and the City of New Rochelle, created to increase awareness, understanding and appreciation of the history and current life of the New Rochelle community."

	The Community Links list on that website (see the bottom of ) names the city of New Rochelle as one of its links, but the link does not point to the actual New Rochelle city website at http://www.newrochelleny.com . Instead it points to a random page on the newrochellenews domain. A few of the "City Hall" links on the home page point to pages on the actual city website, but there is no link to the main city page, and some links are to the newrochellenews domain.

	Another of the identified sponsors, the Huguenot and New Rochelle Historical Association, uses http://thomaspainecottage.org/ as its website. The organization appears to exist primarily or exclusively to maintain the cottage. Its domain registration is of long standing and appears straightforward: http://whois.domaintools.com/thomaspainecottage.org . The site's developer and maintainer is identified as insitefacilitation, incorrectly linked on the website, but findable at http://insitefacilitation.com/ . It's a small web design company in Torrington, CT. (See .) Its website lists Thomas Paine Cottage as one of its clients. Interestingly the e-mail address for membership queries to this association is painecottage@optonline.net

	Insite Facilitation is also identified on the newrochellenews website as the owner of newrochellenews, but it's not named as a client on the insitefacilitation website.

	The newrochellenews whois interesting: http://whois.domaintools.com/newrochellenews.info

	The third identified sponsor, the New Rochelle Preservation Society, has a remarkably small web footprint, as indicated by a . (That restricted search turns up only its own domain and the newrochellenews.info domain.) Its website is at newrochellepreservationsociety.com -- which turns out to be a with the same anonymous registration data as newrochellenews. This site also claims to be maintained by insitefacilitation. The website has no information about the organization that it is supposed to represent, but it does have lots of malformatted nonworking links, as well as links to newrochellenews.info.

	It may be a new year, but I have a strong sense of ''deja vu''. I want to flag this domain as not confirmed to be a reliable source -- and there is no reason to think that newrochellenews can claim ownership of the images on it. Would you support me in this? --] (]) 15:39, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
	:100%. ] ''policy'' is pretty clear - anyone can start a web site. I suppose the OTRS ticket says we can use ''prose'' which also appears on their web site, but without more verifiability, such prose would be inappropriate. As for images, I'd be interested to get specifics from OTRS. Did they claim to ''own'' images that appear on their web site? I notice there are anyway - and really not many links to the site either. Frankly, I'm not sure what the point of the OTRS was. <span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: Times New Roman;">] ]</span> 18:05, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

	::I have a hunch that someone we know initiated the OTRS in order to give undue credibility to their self-published content. Additionally, I perceive the city/organization sponsorship that is claimed on the website as an attempt to endow this content with a mantle of reliability.
	::I'm happy to see that they self-published, instead of trying to get Misplaced Pages to accept their content, but I anticipate that they will be trying to use the OTRS -- and the sponsorship claims -- as justification for wholesale-inserting their unsourced text into Misplaced Pages articles. --] (]) 19:06, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
	:::Yes, a future attempt sounds plausible. It would probably be best to clean up the current links to that site - remove any poorly-sourced material, and other stray links in the external links sections - and then keep an eye out for future links. It might also be good to remove all the individual talk page OTRS messages and consolidate them into a list somewhere. I don't remember if Talk pages contribute to Google weighting, but the messages aren't really appropriate if the articles don't ''actually'' have content from that site anyway. I'd be curious what the OTRS person's thoughts are on placing so many messages despite there being so few actual links to the site.

	---> 14:45, 6 March 2010 Wknight94 (talk \| contribs) deleted "EnergyMap.dk" ‎ (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion)


	We created the page in good faith, it was also the authors first article in Misplaced Pages and it was not our intention to violate any regulations. Of course we want to respect the terms of Misplaced Pages and your deletion also seems rightfully. We hope it would be possible to temporarily restore the article and we will do our best to re-contribute an article in a manner of which is fully on Misplaced Pages terms.


	Energymap.dk is a NGO and non-profit organization, and any funding that should be addressed to the project, is put in to the aim and work of keeping the website Energymap.dk running and up to date.

	EnergyMap.dk was established when the largest NGO organizations in Denmark, within construction, agriculture and food, energy, wind power and the Renewable Energy Network (part-founder) formed a climate consortium, aiming at facilitating international collaboration in the form of joint research and development opportunities within clean tech, and sharing this knowledge worldwide.


	As mentioned, we would very much like to re-contribute the page, in a manner which is on Misplaced Pages terms. It would therefore be highly appreciated if the article is temporarily restored to the EnergyMap user space, enabling a full review of the article, where we will address those problems that led to deletion in the first place.


	Would you please temporarily restore our article?

	I see you have deleted the Larchmont in popular culture section from the Larchmont article. This section is comparable to pop culture sections found in other town articles (i.e.) Scarsdale, N.Y. . In fact Scarsdale's list is far longer and ridden with either unsourced claims or claims that are tagged dubious. Why have you decided to pick on Larchmont? Is there a wikipedia policy regarding pop cultural reference sections, because a lot of articles have them.

	:That Scarsdale section isn't much better, but at least it includes a few cases where movies were filmed in Scarsdale or set in Scarsdale or something more substantial. Including a list of every time anyone in any show or cartoon strip, etc., mentioned the word "Larchmont" or "Scarsdale" - in ''any'' context - is silly.

	Hey mate! I reverted your switch on the Memphis page, because your photo is already shown in the gallery section.

	== Hey... ==

	Hey, Wknight, I was working on designing a Wiki page (actually my first ever) for a non-profit theater company in my user-page until I would have it worked out enough to then create an actual page...Noticed you deleted it. I understand if you thought I was trying to advertise something in an inappropriate way, but at least if that's the reason, can you give me a solid explanation? And is there anyway to get all of that stuff you deleted back so I can edit it? Yes, I'm noob with this, but...I don't know. ] (]) 22:40, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

	Ok, yeah, I just looked at the Deletion Policies and didn't see any criteria for why a user page would get deleted due to "promotion". Also, just f.y.i., "Promotion" in this case would be "promotion" of a non-profit funded largely in part by Chicago Public Schools. And I'm an unpaid volunteer. So if somehow I violated a rule to such a degree that you needed to just delete everything without notifying me first, I'd love to have that rule pointed out to me. That'd be fantastic, and then I'd happily edit it to make sure I'm not abusing Misplaced Pages's rules. Thanks ] (]) 22:48, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

	Just noticed this in the

	You may not have noticed, but at the top of my userpage it said "Very much a work in progress, feel free to edit" because some of the Board Members of the group have a link to it and were going to fact-check to make sure it was correct. Let me know. Thanks. ] (]) 22:53, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

	Ah, after perusing, I see why you deleted my page. G11, or: "Pages that are exclusively promotional, and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic. Note that simply having a company or product as its subject does not qualify an article for this criterion." That's why I was working on rewriting it. I'd be happy to make my page private OR move it completely off Misplaced Pages until it's Encyclopedic. So, for now, I'd really appreciate having the text back.

	== deleted article, User:Grigoriu ==


	About the article on GODS FFLV Enterprise Architecture Framework, you have deleted

	The reason I put this article in, is because there are similar ones about Enterprise Architecture frameworks which can be equally thought as "advertisement" or products. At least you should have a consistent policy in this respect. It is true that is a Framework I conceived, but it is for the public benefits, as the Common licensing states, and it's for public use as are all other examples of frameworks accepted in your Misplaced Pages: OBASHI, CLEAR Framework for Enterprise Architecture, Information FrameWork (by Roger E), Integrated Architecture Framework (IAF) - from Capgemini, not to mention Zachman which is a framework promoted by a single person after all.

	There are categories called Enterprise Architecture Planning, Enterprise Architecture, Enterprise Architecture Assessment framework etc in which my entry is qualified for.

	The EA framework is described in a book I published in US and elsewhere. I have at least two reviews of the Enterprise Architecture book, by well known fora as IASA and BPTrends saying that the presented EA framework is valuable.

	http://www.iasahome.org/web/home/blogs/-/blogs/review---an-enterprise-architecture-framework-3rd-edition

	http://www.iasahome.org/web/home/blogs/-/blogs/review---an-enterprise-architecture-development-framework

	http://www.bptrends.com/publicationfiles/03-08-BR-Ent-Arch-Grigoriu.pdf

	There are documents on the web explaining it. After all this is no product or advertisement but a public concept which has some following. So what are the conditions to be accepted? Public use or knowledge of? This was a promotion for the public benefit not mine because the information becomes public and may not even be referred back to me.

	But, in the end, you should have given me (and the article) a chance to explain all this to you before deleting.

	I am not even sure that this message will reach you or how will your answer, if any, will reach me. I am not sure how to reach a talk page.

	So long

	"Speedy deletion nomination of User:Grigoriu

	A tag has been placed on User:Grigoriu, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

	If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add{{hangon}} on the top of User:Grigoriu and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable.

	== L.A. Wrigley ==

	Hard telling where that unsourced comment about Lane and the by-then-deceased Bill Wrigley. It's possible there were issues with P.K. Wrigley, but according to ''Old Ballparks'', an early 1990s book by Lawrence Ritter, Lane moved the Stars team to San Diego in 1936 strictly because he wasn't making money in L.A. The move worked, as the minor league Padres were around for three decades before the "major league" :) Padres came along. The move also came at a fortuitous time for the young Ted Williams. The second incarnation of the Stars came when the Mission Reds gave up trying to compete with the Seals and move south to L.A., where they played one year at Wrigley Field while waiting for Gilmore Field to be built. That second Stars team was owned by Robert Cobb, the originator of the Cobb salad. Operating the Stars as well as the Brown Derby restaurants were certainly Bob's "salad days". :) The shuffling around of the two Stars teams is an interesting subplot in itself. There was a basic core of teams that played in the same place for quite a few decades (the L.A. Angels, the S.F. Seals, the Oakland Oaks, the Portland Beavers, the Seattle Indians/Rainiers) and a few others that were vagabonds. As regards Wrigley Field and Gilmore Field, they were used as backdrops for Hollywood baseball films, so they can be seen today even they were demolished a generation or two ago. ←] <sup>'']''</sup> ]→ 17:02, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
	:Another interesting thing about the PCL was that at its peak, they used to play a season that was over 200 games long, starting in California in like February or March, and working their way north as the weather improved. Also, with a season that long, a team would come into town and play for a week. If a weak team faced a strong team early, it wasn't unusual to have one team start the season 7-0 and their opponent 0-7. That would be brutal. But a number of guys made a living in the PCL, which was "almost" a major league. For the west coasters, that was their main baseball interest. The NL and the AL were only paid attention to when the World Series rolled around. ←] <sup>'']''</sup> ]→ 17:06, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
	::I'm surprised they even paid attention to the World Series when neither league had a team within 1,000 miles, right? Yeah, I bet in California you could pretty much play 365 games per year. Wasn't it ] where every time they drove by the bank, the sign said 72 degrees? If there is a source for Wrigley Jr. and Lane not getting along, feel free to add that part back in. I did find a reliable'ish book in Google Books saying Lane moved because of the rent. But the two places where it read to me like Wrigley Jr. raised the rent in 1935 ---- three years after he died! ---- definitely needed to be fixed. In searching for a source, I found numerous places that copied that info word-for-word, so now that misleading connection has ''propagated'' because of "us". <span class="wknight94sig">] ]</span> 17:23, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
	:::I think they read it with the same level of interest (or lack thereof) they would have about any other east-coast entertainment item. Maybe your fix will propagate? I made a change to an article recently and went to google and discovered that they had ''instantly'' picked up the change. That's how to spread bad information like it was a virus. I've never seen anything that says Lane had a problem with the Wrigley family as such, only that he moved for financial reasons. If he did have problems with the Wrigleys, it was probably over the rent, not over which brand of gum to chew or something. Reading about Lane Field is interesting. It was made of wood, and it sat like half a block from the Pacific Ocean, so with 24x7 exposure to the sea air, its boards were constantly having to be replaced. Lane probably got a volume discount from the nearest lumberyard. ←] <sup>'']''</sup> ]→ 18:07, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

	Another question, if I may, related to the above. ''Arsenal/Surrealist Subversion'' is the correct name of the publication, but the forward slash creates problems on WP. On the talk page, it is clear that it is read as a subpage of ], though this is not actually the case.

	:::{{ec}} A dash is for stating a range. Like 1952-1967. A slash is more of a connector - 1950s/1960s = 1950s and 1960s. In fact, (1950s and 60s baseball) would be better than (1950s-60s baseball) IMHO. Someone once suggested (played 1990-2008) as a disambiguation method. That may be better still. Anything but (born 1968) which is just awful and confusing. When someone sees "born 1968" in the search suggestions, they could think, "as opposed to what? Born 1967? How should I know when he was born?!" At least giving a wider range like 1950s/60s or "played 1990-2008" makes it clearer that it's the correct choice. <span class="wknight94sig">] ]</span> 16:57, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

If only 100 people realize that K-Rod is Venezuelan (and I'm sure plenty more than 100 do - like the thousands upon thousands who ''are'' Venezuelan), that is 100 more than the number who know he was born in 1982 vs. 1983.

	Hello,
	You've blocked this user indefinitely for disruptive editing. As far as I can see, there were four edits and this user appears to be Michelle Kaufmann, the subject of the article. She appears to be upset about a possibly serious BLP violation, namely that the article said until very recently that her business went bankrupt, though the source says only that the business closed in an orderly fashion. Closing down does not necessarily mean bankruptcy. So, we have a new user, upset about possible BLP violations, unfamiliar with our policies, banned from editing. I have reached out to her by email. If she agrees to conform with Misplaced Pages policies, I respectfully request that you lift the ban. I will assist her with contributing toward consensus on this article if she wishes.

	== db-spam reverts private schools Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia ==

	Thanks for your message about your reverts. I did reinstall some of the reverts in the Kuwait schools but I will revert those if not already done so and consider your suggestion of ].

	Many of these articles are quite plainly advertisements for private schools and if the community can't be relied on to make a common-sense judgement about them then I shall have to take the time to argue a case against them which is tiresome and I would have hoped unnecessary.

	Is Misplaced Pages really committed to providing an entry for every school in the world (every church, every community group)? Or just the private ones? Why just the private ones? What are the criteria for making a school notable enough for coverage in an encyclopedia? Notable alumni? Notable contributions to education? Where does encyclopaedic coverage finish and advertisement start? The mention of gradings from commercial publications of the 'Good School' genre? Discussion of the school transport arrangements? Entry requirements? Fees payable? (Examples of all of these readily to be found).

	I would have hoped common-sense judgement would have prevailed. Unfortunately not. Meanwhile a very great number of Middle East private schools are using Misplaced Pages as an advertising medium.

	I grow increasingly discouraged with the quality and nature of Wikipidia's administration (all sheikhs and no pope one might say).

	Nice pyramid. I grew up in Cairo pre-Suez and my first school was the Gezira Preparatory School ] (]) 06:21, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

	: Added: I have undone my re-reverts except in one case (Gulf English School, Kuwait) which had already been deleted (I asuume by an administator) by the time I returned. I'll look out to see if an appeal is made there and contribute to the debate and see what the decision is before proceeding with the others. Gulf English School was no by no means the worst offender but I don't doubt its article was essentially an advertisement. There was already an advert template there and I'm pretty sure most of the article (save an amusing comment about the price of snacks in the students' canteen) was just a copy-paste of it's brochure.

But you're right that it's too general a statement. Your Mets staff, for example, didn't exactly dominate in the early 60s, it was more like surviving.

Although it just occurred to me that Casey might have thought his bullpen was, in fact, capable of giving up more than 10 runs in the last few innings, and maybe that's why he left Fisher in.

	Hi, I noticed that you removed my amendment to the Soft Drink page, where I stated that Soft Drinks can also be called Juice. In Scotland, Soft drinks like Coke, Pepsi, Dr Pepper, Lemonade etc would usually be referred to as a juice. You would very rarely hear someone call them a can of pop or a fizzy drink. These terms would more commonly be heard in England.

	Here's a link to a blog entry by someone who has moved to Scotland talking about this very subject:

Speedy deletion nomination of Grey Ranks (disambiguation)

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 Grey Ranks (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

disambiguates only one extant Misplaced Pages page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
disambiguates zero extant Misplaced Pages pages, regardless of its title; or
is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

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 Misplaced Pages'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.

Proposed deletion of James Reimer (disambiguation)

The article James Reimer (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This disambiguation page contains the primary topic and one other topic for the ambiguous title and no other topics can be found within a reasonable time.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:02, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
