== Your recent revert comment of copyright notice. == | |||
Hi Nyttend, | |||
For User:Nyttend. Your recent revert comment for the copyright notice on one of the Theodicy pages referred to criteria for copyright violation. Are you presenting yourself as someone who has read the book? Or are you presenting yourself as a Senior Copyright Admin? The history of two-word copyright and trademark violations is so extensive that your comment on the Talk page alone is ambiguous. Please clarify. Similarly for your comment on "fair use" which normally requires the first use of a copyrighted phrase or sentence (Macmillan Palgrave, Copyright (c) renewed 2010) to be fully attributed, which at present Wiki is claiming and asserting as its own. Please clarify. (Preview: http://www.amazon.com/Evil-God-Love-John-Hick/dp/0230252796/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1380551005&sr=1-1&keywords=john+hick+evil). ] (]) 20:32, 2 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
:Please read {{UnitedStatesCode|17|107}}, which appears at the ] article; there's no legal requirement that the "Macmillan Palgrave, Copyright (c) renewed 2010" bit be quoted. Please also read the first part of my statement, which notes that the fair use defense would only be needed if a two-word phrase were copyrightable, which it isn't. Let me remind you that "Macmillan Palgrave, Copyright (c) renewed 2010" is more than twice as long as "Augustinian theodicy", so if the latter be a copyright infringement, the former definitely is; <irony>I suppose I should ] for copyright infringement if I weren't already ]</irony>. Finally, please note that I'm an administrator, and part of my "job" is removing speedy deletion tags that aren't applicable; I'm not a lawyer, but I've learnt enough about copyright as a librarian that I know that two words aren't ] to attract copyright, so I know that the tag you placed wasn't applicable. PS. I failed to answer your first question — I've never read the book. ] (]) 22:06, 2 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
You deleted my article: 23:13, 31 May 2024 Nyttend talk contribs deleted page Draft:Anne H. Flitcraft (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion) (thank) that I need for a class assignment and I was wondering if it was any way possible to get that article back? Or if you could possibly put it back into draft space so that I can edit it? Please let me know, thanks. | |||
The short note above was in good faith. It responded to the question raised in the discussion listed because your response seemed the most thorough one of all the ones there. The edit which i offered to repair the copyright issue did not change a Single word of the opening sentence of the wikipage, but only requested fair use by quoting the first instance of the unique two word copyrighted phrase and placing a footnote at the Bottom-of-the-page to acknowledge Macmillan. | |||
==My Hero== | |||
If you are a serious graduate student planning a doctorate at the University of Indiana in History, then my only purpose in providing the url link above was only for you to be able to make an objective comparison of the Table-of-contents of the book with the outline of the wikipage. Because of your graduate student status your objective opinion of whether these two respective outlines match up one-to-one or not would be of significance. My question was not to suggest that you read the entire book. The preview url was presented for you to make an objective comparison of the one outline and the other Table-of-contents and to tell me if they match up in your opinion or if they do not match up with one another. Otherwise, there is a long history of two-word copyright violations which i can provide to you, mostly self-evident examples, if you request. My main question here is if you can look at the Table-of-contents only and match it objectively to the wikipage outline. ] (]) 18:20, 3 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
:First off, I'm not presently a serious graduate student — not that I'm a flippant graduate student, but that I'm a serious non-student, since I finished graduate school some months ago. After checking the table of contents, I see no reason to allege that either article plagiarises the book's outline. As I have told you numerous times, with the possible exception of a very complex and original pair of words (words along the lines of "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"), a two-word phrase is not by itself copyrightable, so no fair use defence is needed; the only reason I mentioned fair use was to demonstrate that we need not delete the articles, even were your claims of copyright accurate, because the fair use provisions of US law permit us to use copyrighted works in order to construct academic commentary on them. Let me remind you that as "Augustinian" is not a new term, as "theodicy" is not a new term, and as Augustine's theology has been studied extensively and intensively for 1½ millennia, it's unlikely that a 20th-century writer originated the term — I'd only believe it if we had several different scholars all stating that the phrase was never used before Hick. Finally, let me remind you of the legal state of things. '''(1)''' In '']'', 499 U.S. 340 (1991), Justice O'Connor's majority opinion held that "the sine qua non of copyright is originality" and noted that something must possess a spark of originality in order to be copyrightable. Think of it like a group of colored shapes: while the Marquis de Lafayette is believed to be the first to create a ], the design of the flag is something that anyone else easily could have done — if you'd never heard of the flag of France, it wouldn't be implausible for you to create a similar design. In the same way, it would be easy for anyone familiar with these words to use them together, even without hearing of Hick. Copyright can apply to specific names, e.g. if you put together a book with a main character named "Harry Potter", you'd probably be in trouble for copyright infringement — but that's because you've appropriated a fictional character; this isn't applicable to nonfiction. '''(2)''' You speak of copyright versus trademark. Unlike copyright, trademark law can be applied to one- or two-word phrases and concepts (for example, you'd be in big trouble if you started your own computer company and used ] as your logo), but the purpose of trademark law is to ensure that brands be distinguishable. Nobody's prohibited from using a trademarked term to refer to the subject of the trademark, even if they're denigrating it: for example, if Pepsi produces an ad talking about "This is why Pepsi is always better than Coca-Cola", Coke can't sue them for trademark infringement because they're only using the name to talk about the other product. Since scholarly terminology isn't trademarked, none of this is applicable anyway. ] (]) 22:09, 3 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
Nyttend, | |||
In receipt of your note. Since i am an admirer of Justice O'Connor and of her decision on the sine qua non of originality, i agree with your high value of it. You have put your finger on a central matter, and John H. Hick is recognized by a very large group of scholars and associated publications to be the uniquely Original author of the phrase "Augustinian theodicy". Not only is he recognized as the uniquely original author of this term but there have been two book-length studies of his unique theological innovation of this term, as well as a large established literature. The standard for acknowledging John H. Hick's originality on this issue is provided in my link from the 'Augustinian Theodicy' Talk page to David Griffin who acknowledges using the standard of the religious community scholars as "A Critique of John H. Hick's Theodicy". Acknowledging this standard of unique originality to Hick is not done on the Wikipage for Theodicy. | |||
All of your contributions to the various pages on the Bloomington, IN historic districts are so greatly appreciated. You're my hero. Thank you for your devotion of the preservation of memory of domestic architecture. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 06:35, 12 December 2023 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||
The term theodicy was only invented in Leibnitz in the 18th century for the first time, over one thousand years after Augustine. This was explained on the Talk page of Iren. Theodicy three weeks ago, and the principal authors of the page (ItsZip and Quad) acknowledged this and agreed to include proper attribution to Hick in the first sentence of the article. A drive-by editor then took it out last week, and then the copyright issue of proper attribution against copyright violation returned. After Leibnitz, John Hick's introduced the uniquely Original phrase "Augustinian theodicy" in 1966 and attained large fame in the scholarly community thereafter. Two book anthologies have been published to honor him for this. | |||
There are actually four words involved in the proper attribution for fair use provision which remain unaddressed: "Augustinian theodicy" and "Irenaean theodicy" both of which were copyrighted by the publisher for John Hick as being used by him for the first time, two hundred years after Leinitz invented the word "Theodicy" for the first time. This is not acknowledged on the Wiki article under discussion. | |||
==Jose Landi== | |||
Since everything else you mentioned in your most recent note was so accurate, i need to add that when i did a comparison of the wikipage outline to the book table-of-contents it matched up one-for-one. That is, for each section in the wikipage essay, i was able to draw a direct line from the subsection subtitles to a specific section in the book's table-of-contents. Are you saying that you could not do this? On my desk i have the one-to-one match-up before me and can provide you with the match-up from each subsection of the wikipage to a unique section within the Table-of-contents for the book. Please confirm if you can or cannot do this. If they match up, then the difficult for copyright infringement becomes even more prominent. ] (]) 18:00, 4 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

Your speedy deletion of several boxing posters, in my opinion, was completely unwarranted. First off the debate had only four users who offered opinions (not including Stefan). Two who voted keep and two who voted against. Because of this, we opened another discussion ] and I took it upon myself to re-upload the deleted pictures at least until the new debate was settled. This time, more people participated and we were able to clearly reach an agreement to keep the posters. For whatever reason Stefan just could not seem to move past his defeat and remained somewhat bitter if you will. I don't think he understands the promotional side of boxing, which is all about hype and just how important these images are; they are not just part of boxing history, but Worldwide sports history as well. So I ask of you one thing, to do the right thing and reconsider your decision to delete these images ] (]) 00:42, 5 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

:Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but before we move on from this, several things need to be considered. One thing that must be is the the discussion that I've linked in the above paragraph clearly shows that there are several users that do feel that the images should be kept. The thing is, these poster are in fact circulated all across the world. Like I've stated before boxing is all about hype and these posters are a crucial part of promoting the event and become the de facto image associated with it. I mean they represent some of the most important and profitable sporting events of all time. Perhaps another discussion is order because I really feel strongly about having these posters included on the article. ] (]) 01:24, 5 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

Are you sure ] is the right building? I looked up the nomination form to start an article on it, and it says the house and harness shop on the property weren't built until , and the picture of the house in doesn't match your picture.

:I found the page about the Heritage House Museum, but it doesn't really clarify things. It seems to include the Frank Schlosser Home and the Joseph Schlosser Home as separate properties within the Heritage House Museum, but it also includes an otherwise unrelated house in what appears to be a different part of the town. While the nomination form does mention eight structures but only lists seven, I doubt the Joseph Schlosser House is the missing building; not mentioning it at all in the listing seems like a major omission considering that they described three nondescript outbuildings. Perhaps they're counting one of the fences or wells as a structure, though I couldn't say which one from the nomination. (Incidentally, neither of the sources you found seems to say anything about the Schlossers, unfortunately.) | |||
:At this point, I'm inclined to write an article about the Heritage House Museum as a whole, including the third house.

Good afternoon! I see that you reverted an edit to this template to a version including a number of red links to pages that had been draftified until notability can be established.

:: They might not be notable, though. I added these places after I found them in the GNIS, but before I discovered the rule that simply existing in GNIS isn't enough for geographic places. Based on that, I took the articles that I created that I was having trouble finding additional sources or evidence of notability of, draftified then until I could do more research, and removed the entries I had created from the template. I didn't just go deleting redlinks, I deleted redlinks that I had added myself on a mistaken interpretation of the rules, then corrected when I realized my error.

You can block editors from specific pages, in whatever namespace, or from entire namespaces. This is often useful in stopping edit warriors, as it's less drastic than a siteblock, and allows them to make their case on the article talkpage, for instance. You can block from multiple pages in different namespaces. | |||
== Scouting ranks (Scout Association of Japan) == | |||
Namespace blocks can be useful for dealing with an editor who is to focused on WP space pot-stirring. . . Someone who is less than competent with templates might need a template space block. I've also used it for editors who are polite and communicative, but who have chronic sourcing issues in article space. | |||

It can be extremely useful where you might otherwise have to place an overly large IP rangeblock - you can deal with a focused problem IP range by blocking the individual articles or editors they've focused on. Harassment IPs are often dealt with that way. | |||
== Discussion of interest == | |||
I wasn't keen on it at first, and there are still many times when someone just needs a siteblock. But it's a little gentler than a siteblock for editors whose problems can be isolated to a few locations, or where you want to preserve access to most of the 'pedia from a big range.. | |||

==Request for advice== | |||
For the first time since being on Misplaced Pages, I (and another editor) am being bullied, rather systematically. I've reported this on the Admin noticeboard. Another experienced admin, whose judgement I trust, has contributed to the page. Not sure if he is going to sum things up or what. Obviously I don't want to contact him! | |||
== ] == | |||
The bullies have simply continued bullying, even on the Admin notification page (!), and are inventing new ways! My encounters with pov people before has been mostly confined to people with limited experience and, while it might have taken awhile, we convinced them to desist. These people are '''experienced,''' and collaborating which I find horrifying. If I thought that 3% or more of Misplaced Pages editors were like them, I would stop editing now. I don't know how they have continued without admin warning, for so long. | |||
Hello Nyttend, could you please explain to me why you arbitrarily deleted Middlesex Record Office from the disambiguation page? In my opinion, the encyclopedic relevance is clearly given due to the presence of the article about the successor organization. ] (]) 17:07, 19 May 2024 (UTC) | |||
The issue is (as always) content, with which they disagree. And I am fine with their disagreement. They are not fine with mine! Or anyone else's! | |||

So is the Admins notification board the wrong place? Should I just "wait awhile?" Would it be better to take this to mediation? Not sure what to do.

Hi Nyttend! You have an original picture attached to the ] article ] . In the description, you have it located 'off Miller Road' at 37° 06′ 14″ N, 76° 33′ 07″ W. Based on the NRHP nomination documentation, https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/VLR_to_transfer/PDFNoms/121-0037_First_Denbigh_Church_AE_Site_1982_Final_Nomination.pdf, the location was cited as being nearest 18 Walters Road, about 4500ft south, at the next creek convergence. Language in the NRHP doc described 15 feet out of 50 of the church having being lost to erosion before rip rap was added, implying it was right on the river. The Newport News property records at https://assessment.nnva.gov/PT/datalets/datalet.aspx?mode=sales&UseSearch=no&pin=178000121&jur=700&taxyr=2025&LMparent=20 also match the NRHP assertion of a Donald Shenk owning the land at the time of the 1981/2 submission.

==Discussion pages are not articles== | |||
I'm not sure why the talk page archives under "]" are problematic. It is permissible, indeed in most cases obligatory under Misplaced Pages policy (largely due to copyright concerns) to preserve the user contributions represented in the discussion "talk" pages associated with articles. The archival contents of discussion pages are not subject to deletion, speedy or otherwise, except under extremely rare circumstances; indeed, discussion pages,do not meet the technical definition of an "article", on Misplaced Pages. Indeed, this is perhaps the only time that I have seen someone removing archival material from talk pages, and I am quite certain that this is not at all in accord with Misplaced Pages policy regarding archived discussion material (in fact, the archiving of article discussion ("talk") pages is a standard practice, even automatically by bot software). Deleting them is against normal practice, and even allowable practice, as far as I know. There may have been a problem with the implementation of these discussion page archives, or a glitch in the Misplaced Pages software, although it's hard to do an analysis when you have not only nominated talk page archives for deletion, but removed the material from the talk page with which the discussion is associated (it seems the "Hsigo" article is basically being moved to "Xiao (mythology)", and being rewritten, for good reasons, as indicated in the associated discussion pages, some of which you have removed, apparently with the intention of permanently deleting them. I did notice that the non-article pages which you have decided should be treated as articles for deletion did show up listed in X!s Tools, in article space, so I can see why you may have considered them to be actual articles. I'm not sure why, and it's the first time that I have seen this, but I suggest that it would be better to restore the archived discussion material and to instead figure out a different solution to whatever problem may exist with these non-article discussion pages (and, which may indeed have something to do with my implementation of them, perhaps a syntax error in the names). Maybe they just need to be re-named if they are showing up stored in the wrong data space.

http://en.wikipedia.org/Swiatoslaw_Trofimenko | |||
Since you ] that you weren't familiar with the CTOP protection enforcements and were curious - if enforcing a protection of a page as part of ] - there's a logging procedure outlined at ] to log said protection at the relevant subsection in the log, such as ] for enforcing an AMPOL protection so a history of such protections is centralized, for example to say be able to see how often a certain arbitration enforcement had to be enacted each year. | |||
Please note the corrected spelling "Swiatoslaw" versus the incorrect spelling "Sviatoslaw". | |||
As I'm editing fairly frequently on various CTOP articles and counter vandalism patrol, I've encountered my fair share of it, so I've become fairly familiar with the theoretical aspect of it to seek help from admins on it to help enforcement as necessary :) | |||
It's up to the admins discretion, but given the vandalism appeared clearly politically motivated, I would have considered it to fall under the AMPOL CTOP, which is why I suggested logging it, but it's up to you as the admin that imposed it of course :) ] (]) 04:35, 5 November 2024 (UTC) | |||

== ANI - Sisterlinks == | |||
Hello- | |||
I'm dropping a more personal note here, but I left a short response regarding the possible benefit of removing {{t|Sisterlinks}} to articles created by a topic banned user at the thread on ANI. | |||
Personally, I don't have any issue whatsoever with the editors at ] or really anywhere else. Cirt is a highly respected editor, former admin, and obviously a very valuable contributor to the project. I thought for a very long time before posting at ANI, and I don't take posting there lightly at all. I don't think my proposal is "crazy", and I do think it's a simple solution to the problem. In that subject area, Cirt has shown reliably over a very long time to not be able to maintain a NPOV. Removing links to his creations (in this subject area) on other projects seems like a perfectly reasonable action. Maintaining those links continues the long pattern of POV editing. I have now spent a month trying to unwind the mess of a single article, and he (and others) are actively editing from a clear POV in ways that negatively impact the article. I am open to other solutions, but I haven't found any. | |||
Thank you for your input, and I am genuinely interested in any other solutions you see. Cheers! --] (]) 04:30, 2 November 2013 (UTC) | |||

Hi Nyttend,
You deleted my article: 23:13, 31 May 2024 Nyttend talk contribs deleted page Draft:Anne H. Flitcraft (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion) (thank) that I need for a class assignment and I was wondering if it was any way possible to get that article back? Or if you could possibly put it back into draft space so that I can edit it? Please let me know, thanks.

I can't figure out how to link to deletion logs, but was going to #R this to Currituck County, North Carolina#Communities, but saw you G3'd in 2012 as a hoax. Guessing a redirect here is appropriate? fiveby(zero) 16:09, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

Hey!
Do you happen to still have access or know of a way to get access to the May 5, 2011 Liberian Heritage? It's cited in Edward Kesselly, and I'd like to cite it in Quardu Gboni District as well, but I'm having no luck searching for it online. Not sure the best way to get a hold of it.

Pennsylvania municipality pix list
I see you haven't updated your User:Nyttend/Pennsylvania list in a while. Late in the summer, I went through pretty much the whole list of 2500+ municipalities checking off if there was a Commons category, any photos, and a locator map. By checking against geo-located photos on Open Street Map and other photos since added, I basically have the updated list of municipalities like you had, good news we're down to about 157 municipalities without good or any images for their infobox. Because your list is so comprehensive and well put-together, is it alright with you if I go ahead and update your page/images? —Mr. Matté (/Contrib) 22:35, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Communities of Perry County, Tennessee template edits
Good afternoon! I see that you reverted an edit to this template to a version including a number of red links to pages that had been draftified until notability can be established. I am unsure of what you mean by your edit summary of "Redirecting communities to the county is grossly inappropriate," as it appears as though all you did was restore a number of red links. Could you please further explain what you were trying to do? Thanks! nf utvol (talk) 19:22, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- They might not be notable, though. I added these places after I found them in the GNIS, but before I discovered the rule that simply existing in GNIS isn't enough for geographic places. Based on that, I took the articles that I created that I was having trouble finding additional sources or evidence of notability of, draftified then until I could do more research, and removed the entries I had created from the template. I didn't just go deleting redlinks, I deleted redlinks that I had added myself on a mistaken interpretation of the rules, then corrected when I realized my error. Either way, I'm still not sure what you were talking about with the redirecting comment, as none were redirects to the county.nf utvol (talk) 01:47, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Nyttend, please correct this error
Nyttend, You created an entry for the historic home in Henrico named Edge Hill - https://en.wikipedia.org/Edge_Hill_(Richmond,_Virginia). You describe the accompanying photo as Front of Edge Hill but the street side view is the back. The south-facing front is magnificent and cannot be seen from Greenview Drive. This error would not matter but that the front of the house is significant to it's historic designation, please correct the text for your photo. Kwhopson (talk) 11:31, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
Partial blocks
Per your question at ANI, I'll try to answer.
You can block editors from specific pages, in whatever namespace, or from entire namespaces. This is often useful in stopping edit warriors, as it's less drastic than a siteblock, and allows them to make their case on the article talkpage, for instance. You can block from multiple pages in different namespaces.
Namespace blocks can be useful for dealing with an editor who is to focused on WP space pot-stirring. . . Someone who is less than competent with templates might need a template space block. I've also used it for editors who are polite and communicative, but who have chronic sourcing issues in article space.
It can be extremely useful where you might otherwise have to place an overly large IP rangeblock - you can deal with a focused problem IP range by blocking the individual articles or editors they've focused on. Harassment IPs are often dealt with that way.
I wasn't keen on it at first, and there are still many times when someone just needs a siteblock. But it's a little gentler than a siteblock for editors whose problems can be isolated to a few locations, or where you want to preserve access to most of the 'pedia from a big range..

Belated Welcome back!
Hello, Nyttend,
I just saw your message an AN and I must say that I noticed your absence over the years but I hadn't noticed that you had returned and got your mop back. You were missed! We are short-handed in several admin areas on the project so, however you wish to contribute, your presence is very welcome. I myself took two years off, from 2016-2018 while I dealt with issues in my off-line life and I was glad I took a break. I hope you still find the work here satisfying. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask one of the old-timers. Liz 04:31, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- I see I already posted a belated welcome back in 2023, so just consider this a reprise! Liz 04:33, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

I happened to take a look at the history of the article and noticed that you have been recently working on this and some related articles.

Proposed deletion of Robinson Township, Pennsylvania
The article Robinson Township, Pennsylvania has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Not required due to WP:TWODABS. Articles now appear separately at Robinson, and both link to each other.
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. — Voice of Clam (talk) 07:54, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

First Denbigh Parish Church Archeological Site Picture - precision location?
Hi Nyttend! You have an original picture attached to the First Denbigh Parish Church Archeological Site article here . In the description, you have it located 'off Miller Road' at 37° 06′ 14″ N, 76° 33′ 07″ W. Based on the NRHP nomination documentation, https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/VLR_to_transfer/PDFNoms/121-0037_First_Denbigh_Church_AE_Site_1982_Final_Nomination.pdf, the location was cited as being nearest 18 Walters Road, about 4500ft south, at the next creek convergence. Language in the NRHP doc described 15 feet out of 50 of the church having being lost to erosion before rip rap was added, implying it was right on the river. The Newport News property records at https://assessment.nnva.gov/PT/datalets/datalet.aspx?mode=sales&UseSearch=no&pin=178000121&jur=700&taxyr=2025&LMparent=20 also match the NRHP assertion of a Donald Shenk owning the land at the time of the 1981/2 submission. Before I update, do you happen to have a different source or personal knowledge that would put the location that 0.85 miles north, near Miller Road?

Since you said you were curious about CTOP
Since you mentioned that you weren't familiar with the CTOP protection enforcements and were curious - if enforcing a protection of a page as part of WP:CTOP - there's a logging procedure outlined at Misplaced Pages:Contentious_topics#Logging to log said protection at the relevant subsection in the log, such as Misplaced Pages:Arbitration_enforcement_log#American_politics_(CT/AP) for enforcing an AMPOL protection so a history of such protections is centralized, for example to say be able to see how often a certain arbitration enforcement had to be enacted each year. As I'm editing fairly frequently on various CTOP articles and counter vandalism patrol, I've encountered my fair share of it, so I've become fairly familiar with the theoretical aspect of it to seek help from admins on it to help enforcement as necessary :) It's up to the admins discretion, but given the vandalism appeared clearly politically motivated, I would have considered it to fall under the AMPOL CTOP, which is why I suggested logging it, but it's up to you as the admin that imposed it of course :) Raladic (talk) 04:35, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
