You removed this.
== No, I don't have to fix every template on a page I edit ==


Then the archaeological section is referring to a study from a 1934 excavation without recent developments.
Hi,


Since then, the historian Gibson (professor of anthropology with a Phd in irish chiefdoms) has written an academic dissertation in 1990 identifying this site as the capital of the chiefdom of ''Tulach Commáin'' ("The Mound of Commán" a once locally revered chief, anglicised to Commane).
Sorry, your message is simply wrong. Me including a (widely used) template does not create an obligation for me to fix all the DABs and redirects in that template.


His work is quoted by many scholars, I've added this point again with many sources.
If this isn't obvious to you, then please find the rule that supports your theory.


No worries if this was just an oversight—happy to discuss further if needed!

I have some additional questions related to the data and it would be great if we could get in contact about it. I have created the Misplaced Pages account "Researchguy11", but I am not sure if Misplaced Pages allows for communication and/or if you are interested in sharing your insights on Michelin star restaurants and your documentation efforts.

== Point of grammar ==

On ], you said "I'm inherently bias as I'm the person who wrote the article." You are not bias. Bias as a noun means a particular tendency or inclination, especially one that prevents unprejudiced consideration of a question; prejudice. You are not the tendency. You may be subject to the tendency.

Bias as a verb means to cause partiality or favoritism in (a person); influence, especially unfairly which is what you appear to be trying to communicate has happened.

To be correct, you would say "I'm inherently biased.." using the past ] tense of the verb bias as the object of the verb "to-be" meaning you are subject to that partiality. A participle is a verb that modifies the noun. In this case, the verb is bias, and the noun is you.

Hope this helps. ] 16:37, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

He is a freelance writer and he had been written so many articles in different topics, and they were published in magazines, newspapers, tabloids etc.

== Feedback request: Economy, trade, and companies request for comment ==
Hi The Banner. This is to give you a friendly reminder that your recent reverts over at ] fall into edit warring when you ignore either requests to discuss content at the article talk page or discussions that have already taken place. It looks like you've been an editor long enough to know better, so I'll spare the links to relevant pages in the hopes that the behavior was just a temporary mishap in judgement. When editors are asking for content to be set aside for a moment for a breather so discussion can occur about resolving content discrepancies, it's not particularly helpful to stir things up with pointy reverts while not engaging in the discussion after being asked to do so. If you feel strongly about something, bring it to the talk page (and follow the discussion that's already occurred) rather than relying on reverting and edit summaries outside the discussion. ] (]) 01:38, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

::Continuing to revert while ignoring the article talk page after being repeatedly asked to bring concerns there is one of the very definitions of edit warring, not to mention disruptive. Positive or negative content has never been brought up for the issue being discussed, and it's quite difficult to say the content in question is either positive or negative. The wording and content itself are rather neutral. It's been an issue of sourcing as the current content being discussed doesn't have a source directly supporting it due to synthesis issues as multiple users have pointed out now. It seems like you might have some other ax to grind with your deleting positive content remark, so I highly suggest ] for a bit and look into what's actually being discussed at the article. ] (]) 14:09, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

::::I removed the content as part of the ongoing discussion, especially ]. We're discussing the content, while you were reverting content without joining the conversation. So yes, I am asking you to step back ''and read the discussion'' (not leave) because of that. That is why I was reverting your reverts. The whole point of the article talk page is to discuss and come to consensus. Right now we have multiple editors pointing out a sourcing issue, and Redddbaron is at the very least discussing it without resorting to reverts. You weren't doing that. Ignoring that discussion is disruptive, and I've been trying to point out how the content issue can be remedied without disruptive editing. Just set the content aside temporarily and see how we can work on it in the talk page. That's all. ] (]) 15:37, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

::::::At this point all I can say is drop the pitchfork and read the actual talk page conversation and what I've explained to you. You're getting a very different idea of what's going on than what we're actually trying to do. Settle, read, and then discuss on the article talk page if you have something constructive to add. I can't offer much more help than that at this point. ] (]) 15:51, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

Cahercommaun

hey @The Banner you reverted my changes and removed credible sources from the page, may I ask why?

the article's lead says it's "sometimes Cahercommane" which is as I found the page, but I added a source from Clare Libary: https://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/places/the_burren/cahercommane.htm

You removed this.

Then the archaeological section is referring to a study from a 1934 excavation without recent developments.

Since then, the historian Gibson (professor of anthropology with a Phd in irish chiefdoms) has written an academic dissertation in 1990 identifying this site as the capital of the chiefdom of Tulach Commáin ("The Mound of Commán" a once locally revered chief, anglicised to Commane).

His work is quoted by many scholars, I've added this point again with many sources.

No worries if this was just an oversight—happy to discuss further if needed!

Outdated source and poor sources. It looks more like wishful thinking then proper sources. Westropp is only reliable for his drawings but beside that he made a lot of mistakes and misconceptions. The Banner talk 15:11, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Yes the information on the current page is outdated as I said it's from a 1934 excavation.
The links I inserted is the recent research, Gibson also published a book in 2012 on Irish Chiefdoms specifically on this subject. Kellycrak88 (talk) 15:22, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Another source National library of Ireland referred to as Cahercommane

Monument Name: Cahercommane

Your objection to adding credible sources to the page and deleting my redirect link is unfounded Sir Kellycrak88 (talk) 15:37, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Too bad that you keep referring to Westropp. The Banner talk 15:43, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
You don't seem to grasp that names in Ireland are often referred to by different spellings.
Even historically, chiefdoms to quote gibson were known by a multiplicity of names.
I've lived in this area all my life and it's always been referred to this way.
For example, look at this site: https://www.logainm.ie/en/22342 and scroll down to Historical References there's about 20 different spellings if you look at the different years.
If you're not going to allow credible sources on the page then I will have to escalate the issue. Kellycrak88 (talk) 15:50, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Is that a threat? Or a promise that you start a new excavation soon? The Banner talk 15:51, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Ow, and read "Burren archaeology : a tour guide" by historian Hugh Carthy. Worth a read. The Banner talk 16:05, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Will check it out.
No threat. I don't think I'm being unreasonable here, so if we can't agree, other opinions will be needed and I will be opening a case. Kellycrak88 (talk) 16:11, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
objecting to my redirect link.... why? Kellycrak88 (talk) 16:15, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
That is clearly stated in the nomination. The Banner talk 16:23, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
I've just explained why you're mistaken. Kellycrak88 (talk) 16:37, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
https://en.wiktionary.org/commane interesting! dictionary describes commane an alternative form of commaun
there is no misconception or mistake—except, perhaps, in your stance. Kellycrak88 (talk) 19:36, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Hi @The Banner check this https://www.logainm.ie/en/35676 1838 there are 13 different spellings for the same spot 🤪 Kellycrak88 (talk) 14:59, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Princess Juliana International Airport#Passenger

Hi, I saw you reverted a reference to nonstop year-round service on United for Washington-Dulles due to non-independent reference. This was taken directly from the airport's official website, so unclear why this is not considered a primary source. Can you elaborate on what should be used instead or why this reference is not acceptable? Looking forward to your response, thank you. PAE2008 (talk) 17:24, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

The issue is that it is not an independent source. The airport has a clear commercial interest in the connection and so in unsuitable as source, Please take a look at WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT. The Banner talk 18:05, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
