Welcome!
Psyhakiasman
Sorry for ysing this but i don't know another way to reach you.About the revert you did,i think that it is wrong to have the page still in existance.Because you don't inderstant why,so that the reasons: 1)Macedonia is a Greek teritory,since ancient times to today 2)Skopians,because they lack any culture and history,want to take the Greek teritory which is rich in culture and history 3)Even the smaleest word say that Macedonia is not Greek is insult to our fallen heroes,old and recent,who fought this northen part my country 4)Who would you feel if one country stated that new jersey does not belong to the states,but in that country?And what feel if that country want to do this so badly,that makes a fake history and presents it as the right one? Please,take those into consideration. P.S Is there another way to talk to others in wiki? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Psyhakiasman (talk • contribs) 21:08, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Actually, Islam and Democracy are not compatible due to the natures of those ideologies. The term "oxymoron" should be included there.

Shameless Episodes
For your information, i did not vandalise the List of Shameless Episodes article. I improved it as it so clearly needed. You are the second person to do this today and the other user even admitted to the vandalism remark as being an error. In no way shape or form were those edits i made, vandalism. I suggest it be you who looks upon the rules of wikipedia. Because if editing an article that is clearly marked as "help to improve it" is cast down as vandalism then this sure is a site that should NOT promote "self" editing 92.10.173.136 (talk) 00:11, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Teutonic Knights
Dear Alan sohn perhaps in your opinion the factual additions I made may not constructive, but they are still relevant and factual, specifically I pointed that: German Nationalists were virulently racist and ignorant on the topic of human genetics, especially with respect to their idiotic and pathetic view that Slavs were a lower and inferior grade of human being. This was to done to inform the reader of the context these idiotic German attitudes, attitudes that lead to mass-murder. These facts might be uncomfortable and embarrassing for you, but they are facts; just like the German Nazi perpetrated holocaust was a fact, or are you also a holocaust denier? I taken the liberty of submitting your page to the internet archive. Best Regards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.83.175.116 (talk) 02:26, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
Public Schools in NJ
Hello Alansohn. Seems like there are many errors on public schools in NJ that you have recently edited. The comparative spending guide that you added in the info box has the last entry on Median Teacher Salary wrong. At least in 5 school districts that I checked, you have the wrong info there. Basically the data of one school district is mixed up with another school district above it. For example, you have data for Irvington for Livingston info box, Livingston for Millburn info box, Montcliar for Newark info box, and Newark for Nutley info box, etc. Since you made change to so many pages, could you check all the pages that you changed and fix them? Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I don't know what eles to do. I can start fixing it one by one myself, but that is going to take months to do. Also, why only those indicators that you picked. Why not others? For example, indicator 13 is an important one to know how much school pays attention to extracurricular activities. Z22 (talk) 06:58, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
- I'm glad that you have an interest and I will do my best to figure out what's wrong here. I just started on Essex County's districts and I hope that the bug is restricted there, though I will spot check my downloads against the data in the actual CSG. The indicators I chose are the ones that account for the bulk of spending. Indicator 13 was in my mind, but I was already overwhelmed with data as it is. I will review for any possible errors and hope that you wuill be able to help pin down any further mistakes. Alansohn (talk) 16:09, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
- Also the Median Teacher Salary is the only indicator without %+- vs average, maybe that is related to the bug. I hope when you fix the data, you can add % as well to be consistent with other indicators. Z22 (talk) 16:52, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
- In reviewing the CSG download files I used, all are in the same order, except for Indicator 16, Median Teacher Salaries. In the csg16.xls file, City of Orange is ordered under "O", while it's ordered under "C" in all of the other files I checked. The values for Indicator 16 for the eight districts from east Orange to Orange were off by one and have all been corrected. I will add the % chg. for teacher salaries to the template. Thanks for the excellent catch of this error. Alansohn (talk) 02:50, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

- It seems like indicators 12 and 13 are the only two that are not included in your list. Since less than 30% of schools have spending on indicator 12, so it does not make sense to add. I still think that indicator 13 is a good information to know. As you are overwhelmed, I will try to take a crack at it. I only know to add info manualy one by one. We'll see how long it will take me to do. Z22 (talk) 02:52, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
- Let me add it to the template and give me a heads-up when you add the data. Alansohn (talk) 02:55, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
- Done (with some pains) for all the districts that use the NJSchoolDistrict template. I originally thought that it would take me a month to do. Please spot check if you have a chance. I also fixed two 7-12 schools in Warren county to set the correct state average numbers as they are not 9-12. By the way, I found that something should be changed for graderange parameter. For schools in 7-12/9-12 dataset, we should set graderange to the actual range for that school whether it is 7-12 or 9-12. This is so that the Avg. column and footnote will not be misleading that the average is for all 7-12 and 9-12 schools combined. Also for vocational schools, we should set graderange to something like 9-12 (voc.) so that the avg. column and footnote will not be misleading. Right now, it is as if the average is for all 9-12 schools (vocational and regular) in the state. If you agree, I can make those changes. Z22 (talk) 03:30, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

Image in Anti-Nazi Boycott of 1933
A "bot" (supposedly) removed an image (headline:JUDEA DECLARES WAR ON GERMANY) you placed in this article. The cited grounds appear (as is usual for such bots) to be copyright considerations. Having tried to insert images into various articles and having had them removed on copyright grounds, I personally have quite given up on inserting images into articles, and even trying to figure out whether they may be permitted to remain.
But you are an administrator and, as such, perhaps more able to address the numerous vagaries of placing images in articles. The image in question (which is all over the Internet) strikes me as pertinent and valuable in this article, which itself is very valuable, so I hope you will give some attention to restoring your work.
If there is anything I could do to assist you (I have already invested a fair amount of work in the article), please advise me.--Joe (talk) 15:36, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to the biggest WikiCup Misplaced Pages has yet seen! Round one will take place over two months, and finish on February 26. There is only one pool, and the top 64 will progress. The competition will be tough, as more than half of the current competitors will not make it to round 2. Details about scoring have been finalized and are explained at Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Scoring. Please make sure you're familiar with the scoring rules, because any submissions made that violate these rules will be removed.

We will keep in contact with you via weekly newsletters; if you do not want to receive them, please remove yourself from the list here. Conversely, if a non-WikiCup participant wishes to receive the newsletters, they may add themselves to that list. Well, enough talk- get writing! Your submission's page is located here. Details on how to submit your content is located here, so be sure to check that out! Once content has been recognized, it can be added to your submissions page, from which our bot will update the main score table. Remember that only articles worked on and nominated during the competition are eligible for points. Have fun, and good luck! Garden, iMatthew, J Milburn, and The ed17 19:15, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

WikiCup 2010 and Dermatology-related content
I noticed that you are participating in the 2010 WikiCup. I have been working on the Bolognia push which is a project to make sure Misplaced Pages has an article (or redirect) on every know cutaneous condition. With that being said, there are still many cutaneous condition stubs to be made, and Bolognia could be a source for a lot of DYK articles, etc. Therefore, I was thinking maybe we could help one another... a competative WikiCup that also serves to improve dermatologic content on Misplaced Pages. I could e-mail you the Bolognia login information if you have any interest? ---kilbad (talk) 03:19, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
How can we fix this
Please refrain from name-calling and incivility at CFD. Calling me a troll out of the blue in multiple CFD discussions because I have criticized your lack of civility in other discussions is completely uncalled for.,, The comments of yours that I criticized were unnecessarily personal arguments (in the most recent instances, against User:BrownHairedGirl), making them a comment and judgment on the contributor rather than the content., These comments, apart from doing nothing to advance any legitimate argument, violate WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, and especially WP:AGF.
Perhaps I made a mistake by trying to bring this to your attention in the middle of the CFD rather than on your talk page, as that could be seen as unnecessarily confrontational, in which case I apologize. But the underlying point is that you need to comply with WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, and WP:AGF, regardless of how much you may disagree with others. Your comments often suggest that you don't believe anyone who disagrees with you is honestly working to improve the encyclopedia, and in conjunction with your personalized remarks, you frequently do not fairly restate the positions of others, and I don't know that I've ever seen you try at CFD to better understand them. I sometimes might agree with the underlying substance of your arguments, were you to present it neutrally rather than as an attack.
I'm very impressed with your contributions in other areas; I've noticed how many new articles you've written and expanded, how many DYKs you're credited with, and how prolific of a vandal fighter you are. That makes your hostility at CFD all the more disappointing, because I don't think you're someone who has to attack others in order to make a point. Perpetuating a hostile environment at CFD certainly doesn't make it any less "broken," but rather makes it harder for those with disagreements to resolve them, or even to listen to one another.
Please believe that my intent has never been to stop you from voicing your content-related opinions, however much or little I may agree with them. My objections have always been only regarding the manner in which you do so. postdlf (talk) 20:50, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
