Happy New Year, Nyttend!

Nyttend,
Have a prosperous, productive and enjoyable New Year, and thanks for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. North America 06:08, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

Send New Year cheer by adding {{subst:Happy New Year fireworks}} to user talk pages.

Just wanted to add similar Happy New Year wishes, Nyttend, and will take this opportunity to add that you have been an excellent WP teacher and inspiration for me (inadvertently) in so many ways you are not even aware. A most sincere THANK YOU. Atsme 21:20, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Black Jack McEwen

Great Scott! Now I'm sure I'm losing the plot. I thought I kept pretty good tabs on our prime ministers' private lives and foibles, but that morbid detail of his demise had completely escaped my notice. Naturally, I assumed it was vandalism, but I checked it out and it's legit. Thanks for bringing me up to speed.

The worst part about this revelation is that I wasn't aware of it but some anonymous jerk on the internet was you were. :) -- Jack of Oz 09:15, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

PS. I just realised why that one passed me by. From mid-February I was out of town for a while, celebrating the birth of my first grandchild with her parents.

I really must get my priorities sorted out once and for all.  :) -- Jack of Oz 09:19, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

RfC

The word biomedical also means health. It is not broadening the meaning. So what does that say about others who clamed it was broadening the meaning. Do you think there are were only good faith editors or were there bias and bad faith editors commenting in the RfC. There is another RfC. It is obvious what is going on here. Decisions for policy and guidelines should only allow neutral and good faith editors commenting. QuackGuru (talk) 19:44, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi Nyttend. I wrote an essay called Why MEDRS? that explains why MEDRS is so important for content about health. I cannot tell you how many times we have relied on it to keep bad information about various quack remedies or other health claims with very weak or no scientific support out of WP. It functions kind of like the FDA does for the US - the FDA's job is to prevent people from selling snake oil. Would you please reconsider? A possible way out here would simply be to say "no consensus" since as you noted the !votes were pretty evenly split. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 16:44, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

A no consensus finding will have the same result. Because the edit that caused the RFC can be found here with CFCF inserting "and health" and other places in subsequent edits, where it had not been before looking back as far as 2011. Per WP:NOCONSENSUS the edit would be removed. AlbinoFerret 17:07, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

RfC closure

I tweaked your closure here, no change to the substance, just the location of the text. I think I got it right, but who knows. Just letting you know. --kelapstick 21:22, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

About an User

Hi Nyttend. As recently saw there is a user called The Banner that was a couple of months blocked by you , apparently the user continues to edit in a way continued battleground mentality and frivolous I would like to inform me about it because I do not consider their editions something good or pleasant to Misplaced Pages, even removing pages with relevant information according to this user considers should not be on wikipedia especially towards beauty pageants and other issues. Thank you.Evanex (talk) 22:41, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 7

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Washington, Kentucky, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Maysville, Ohio (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:06, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Azerbaijan

Do you think the indefinite full protection on Azerbaijan could be lifted now? The edit warring was all on a single day, and it's now been several weeks since then. Jackmcbarn (talk) 16:55, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Argument from authority

I hate to be that guy... But I'm not sure how better to respond. The user Perfect Orange Sphere seems to think that what you said at the AN/I thread doesn't apply. He continues to insist upon reverting my edits here and here, he has explicitly asked me to stop editing the page and participating in the discussion, and he continues to insist upon some very Dunning-Kruger-esque points to defend his interpretation, such as implying that presumption is the same thing as absolute certainty and insisting that published papers by environmentalists, computer scientists and science educators have more weight than academic definitions of the term. I'm not asking for you to ban him, just to help however you can. I would really appreciate it. MjolnirPants Tell me all about it. 03:09, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

I don't know that this means anything nefarious is going on, but Interestobserver (talk · contribs) was apparently created just a few hours ago. The only edit from the account was an unexplained revert of one of my edits to the article. It might be one of the IP editors from the dispute creating an account (the other was Perfect Orange Sphere not logged in), but as best I could tell Perfect Orange Sphere was the only one hitting the undo button. Feel free to tell me to get lost if I'm getting on your nerves by coming to you, it's just that (as I suspect you can see), there doesn't seem to be any way to get through to them myself. MjolnirPants Tell me all about it. 00:44, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for your response. I hope I didn't imply that you should block him, that's not what I intended. I only wanted to bring it to your attention, in case it becomes an issue in the future. I will let you know if that happens. I intend to take your advice, and leave a politely worded message on the user's talk page. Also, I understand what you are saying about the talk page and agree completely. I'm quite happy to discuss the article with anyone, whether they agree with me or not. MjolnirPants Tell me all about it. 03:15, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Haiti

Just a quick note to let you know I have posted the reasons here for reverting your change in Haiti's article. Reverting your change does not mean I do not appreciate your work and contribution. I welcome your thoughts. Caballero//Historiador 12:04, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Max Mosley picture deletion request

Hi, my web site F1almanah.mk is now upgraded from racing portal to complete sport portal named Derbi.mk and that is why the archive is missing. I have uploaded many files from Formula 1 as that was prime focus of my work and to tell that most of you have no way to offices of famous people is correct, but you should read that this picture was taken in Skopje on Nov.22 during his visit to Macedonia where this interview happened. You can see my credentials on Linked in (Aleksandar Tabakovski). https://www.linkedin.com/in/tabakovski

You can reach me by email on any of mentioned domains, just put my last name before @ sign.
