Nguyen

I want to delete those incorrect infomation from the Nguyen article.

This surname is not originally Chinese. So, there is no point to put some Chinese legends here. Plus, there is no way to prove the correctness of some unknown legends. People might have some misunderstandings that 40% Vietnamese are Chinese which is not true. Nguyen is a Vietnamese surname, NO Chinese.

This article is about Nguyen, a Vietnamese surname. So, there is no point to put some notable Ruan people here. List the notable Ruan people in a Ruan article, please. Notable Ruan people has nothing to do with Nguyen article. Ducdung (talk) 15:24, 7 April 2010 (UTC+8)

U.S. Space Exploration History on U.S. Stamps

Greetings Mark

I am amazed that you found the New Page...only five minutes after it was first launched! Do you have some sort of 'radar' that alerts you to new articles? Amazing. I am also working on a quite larger page in my user space: American History on US Postage Stamps. If you have the time check in and leave any thoughts on the discussion page there. Thanks for the encouraging words. All the best. GWillHickers (talk) 23:48, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Mortarism

Hello Marknutley. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Mortarism, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Statemaster is a mirror site - what you found there is their copy of an earlier version here; so it's not a copyvio. However it is a G$ - repost of material deleted at AfD - and I will zap it as such. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 21:52, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

Ok man, wish you had posted like two minutes ago as an ip removed the tag and i reverted him :) mark nutley (talk) 21:54, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

Charles R. Chickering

Hi Mark, thank you for your help. I am trying to find biographical information on Chickering. Every time I have searched I encounter numerous examples of his work, esp at the Smithsonian Postal Museum, but alas I have yet to find anything that covers the man and his career at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Even the B.E.P. has little to no info' (that I have found) at their website. If you should encounter such info in your travels please inform me. Again, many thanks.

Regarding your restrictions, and a possible breach of these....

Per these restrictions - Have you checked this with an independent editor in good standing? Neither Orlowski's blog in The Register nor Pielke Jr.'s blog are mainstream media. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 16:22, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

The register is a main stream newspaper is`nt it? And Pileke is reliable per wp:prof so i figured that would be ok to use, is there actually a problem with either ref? mark nutley (talk) 16:54, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

No, The Register is not a "main stream newspaper" - its not even a newspaper. And you are specifically barred from taking a stand on whether something is a reliable source or not (within the sanction area) - please read your sanctions again and try to understand them. I suggest that you revert yourself - since you are in breach of your restrictions. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 17:13, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

MN, I advise you to back down on this rapidly if you don't want an enforcement request William M. Connolley (talk) 17:14, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

I have filed an enforcement request, as I was unaware that you were yet again using blogs as sources. You can find it at Misplaced Pages:General_sanctions/Climate_change_probation/Requests_for_enforcement#marknutley. Hipocrite (talk) 17:29, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Wow thanks hipocrite you gave me all of half an hour, nice one mark nutley (talk) 18:02, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

You should have done it immediately when i pointed out that you were in breach of your restrictions, restrictions are not there for fun (as you should know, since this isn't the first time that you've been in breach of a sanction placed). It is your responsibility to adhere to the restrictions put upon you. Personally i'd have notified NuclearWarfare who placed the restrictions, and asked for you to be blocked for a short period of time - since this isn't the first time that you have failed to adhere to restrictions placed upon you, in the hope that you may finally understand that such restrictions aren't there for the "fun of it". --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 18:11, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

There is fuck all wrong with those refs and sources and you know it, all were atributed correctly, your only problem is that you want the article deleted and are looking for any excuse to remove content mark nutley (talk) 18:14, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Mark, please calm your language down. I am not the one who is in breach of a sanction, you are. Rules are not here for "fun", and to be broken when ever you feel it is "Ok". Your comment here is indicative of you not understanding that. There is the "fuck all" wrong with the sources, that you aren't allowed to introduce them into an article. - as simple as that. (ie. it doesn't matter one single iota whether they are attributed, reliable or not - you can't introduce them, per your restrictions). --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 18:30, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Don`t tell me to calm down, i have followed the rules as laid down, you know those sources are fine and i have done nothing wrong, do me a favour and just go away i`m fed up of this constant shite mark nutley (talk) 18:38, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Mark, you haven't "followed the rules as laid out". The rules for you are: "Marknutley is prohibited from introducing a new source, with some exceptions such as articles published in peer-reviewed journals, books published by a well-regarded academic press, or newspaper articles published in the mainstream media, to any biography of a living person or any climate change article without first clearing the source with another long-term contributor in good standing." - and both of the sources you introduced failed that. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 18:43, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Advice: this is the wrong response (as is the above). If you want people to think that you understand the difference between various sources, you need to show it. Trying to brazen this out is doomed William M. Connolley (talk) 18:14, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

I am not trying to brazen it out, i am being honest. Why not tell me what is wrong with the ref`s? exactly were in your opinon are they wrong? mark nutley (talk) 18:23, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

I can, but you have already been told. You need a bit of introspection at this point. The purpose of your sanction was to prevent you introducing dodgy refs. You are now in some danger of demonstrating that you can't tell dogy from non-dodgy, hence H's proposed extension. What I write as a comment at the RFE (whether you care or not is another matter of course) depends on whether you manage to work this out for yourself, or not. At the very least I strongly suggest you strike your existing statement as a holding measure, and go talk to Cla, or LHVU, or someone you trust William M. Connolley (talk) 18:29, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Mark, this is the wrong question to ask. It is not whether the sources are reliable or not that is the question - it is whether you broke your editing restrictions. And that is what you should focus on. A good reply at the enforcement board would have been: Ooops - won't happen again - i've self-reverted and raised it on talk. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 18:37, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

I can`t self revert, i saw your message, asked a question to get clarification had me dinner and then hipocrite had already filed an rfe and reverted the stuff out. Fuck this shit you guys can keep the cc articles and shove them. I`m happy doing articles on books were i don`t get fucking hounded and abused all the time mark nutley (talk) 18:41, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Of course you can't still self-revert, that isn't prohibited by Hipocrites action. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 18:44, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Ok now you have confused me, how can i self revert something which is already reverted? Bearing in mind i can only do 1r and am not allowed to reintroduce an edit which has already been reverted? mark nutley (talk) 18:49, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Ah, sorry. I hadn't seen that Hipocrite reverted you. So you are left with "Ooops sorry, i would have self-reverted if i could, but H beat me to it. It won't happen again ... <something about understanding the restriction>". (but really you should be the one doing it - instead of complaining that the world is unfair) --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 18:55, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
