:Misplaced Pages is an encyclopaedia, not a fanblog or personal website, meaning that everything added must be accompanied by proof of being correct. So read Misplaced Pages's rules about ], ] and ] before trying to lecture anyone, or trying to add more material. And note that it's up to '''you''' to provide that reference, not me. Also note that other Misplaced Pages articles can '''not''' be used as references. According to the rules any material that isn't supported by a reliable verifiable in-line citation (reference) can be removed, which is exactly what I did, and will continue to do if you don't provide references. Oh, and by all means feel free to report me to "the main admin", whoever that would be, but don't bother trying to contact "Misplaced Pages's owners", because I most probably know the rules that apply here on the English language Misplaced Pages at least as well as they do. ] ] 16:40, 25 September 2014 (UTC) |

DYK for Baggböle Manor
On 15 June 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Baggböle Manor, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Baggböle manor (pictured) is built entirely of wood, but made to look like a stone building? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |
Precious
chasing vandals
Thank you, Thomas, proud for a good reason, for spending most of your "time on WP chasing vandals and socks", for fighting vandalism and misconceptions, for precision in language and linguistic, imagine polychoral praise: you are an awesome Wikipedian!
--Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:06, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you, Gerda Arendt. Such praise almost makes me blush, even at my age... Thomas.W 09:21, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Edits on live role-playing games
Hello, I received a message from you stating that I added a spam link to the Live role-playing games article. I definitely do not recall posting any such link, and would like to know what exactly the link was for (as I fear I have been somehow phished). Thank you for letting me know of this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.118.109.134 (talk • contribs)
- Don't worry. If you check the date of the message on your talk page you'll find that it was posted on 5 July 2013, i.e. more than a year ago. So it's history. Thomas.W 19:31, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
Miss Multiverse
Greetings, would you kindly take a look and see why is it that Miss Multiverse is once again put for delete, i have read the wikipedia policies and the article meets the policies and it also states that once an article is approved by an administrator it cannot put for delete again. Jose Cuello (talk) 06:40, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Jose Cuello:It is seen as an attempt to promote a beauty pageant, one of many, that isn't really notable yet, even though it might become notable. The current version of the article has been toned down quite a bit, and is far less promotional than when it was first created (thanks to other editors here on WP, not you), but having been deleted multiple times before as pure promotion isn't helping. So don't count on me helping you to keep the article on WP, because even though I haven't !voted in the AfD, and have no plans to do so, a !vote from me would not be "keep". Thomas.W 06:58, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Thomas.W: Greetings Thomas
I am not clear with this, i mean i took the text literally from other pageants wikipedia page to make sure it does not seem promotional, it has not been deleted multiple times, it was deleted once and the second deletion was due to that there was a duplicate article since i created the first one with a capital letter and the second with small and did not know how to remove the second one. Jose Cuello (talk) 07:03, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
regarding notisable there are many pageants that are less notable on wikipedia and i have read the general guidelines of what this means https://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Notability#Events
I am thinking of just deleting the article since it is just so difficult and controversial, this is all mostly based on opinions from people that dont follow pageants or know pageantry, what do you advice should i just go ahead and delete this? Jose Cuello (talk) 07:07, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- You're not helping your case by posting walls of text all over the place, including on the AfD... Thomas.W 07:15, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Thomas.W: Greetings Thomas i don´t want to help the case, i want it removed, it has been a HUGE mistake to post this article and its just becoming harmful a waste of time and a source for stress... I WANT IT DELETED Jose Cuello (talk) 09:05, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- You'll have to wait until the AfD is over. Thomas.W 09:07, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Thomas.W: Hey i did not blank it, i removed the text i included my self, this is EDITING not blanking, and also you don`t answer my questions, you just emerge with your warnings I WANT MY TEXT AND CONTRIBUTION DELETEDJose Cuello (talk) 09:10, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- Removing whole sections or the whole article, as you have repeatedly been doing, isn't editing, it's blanking. And it's not YOUR text, for multiple reasons. When you press SAVE efter creating an article whatever text you have added is no longer yours, and can not be controlled by you. Most of the text in the current version of the article has also been added by other editors, not you, so why would it be YOUR article? Thomas.W 09:16, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
University of Delhi
Hello Thomas !This is Dell335, Thank you for sharing your opinion. I actually intend to update the Rankings section, you see all the information provided belongs to a previous year.Moreover i also found that the Asian QS Ranking shown(27) is actually a mistake.The entire world rankings shown in the table are incorrect , except for the India Today Ranking.While the paragraph does provide the accurate information,it is not relevant for the current year.I am going to add the current year information and update that section.I will add the required references to the changes. Dell335 (talk) 09:05, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Dell335: Then update the ranking table when you have new figures, and sources that support your new figures, but do not remove it. Thomas.W 09:24, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Re: Your edits on Andhra Pradesh
Dear Thomas, thanks for posting at my talk page. But have seen what I have done and on basis of what? Let me explain I had added pie chart which is based on data already present in the article. If you think my edit was POV then the data already present is POV too and you have not taken any step to eliminate the source data but focussed on derived pie and accused me of POV-pushing. Also, the article is full of statistics based on pre-division Andhra Pradesh, how do you plan to get rid of this POV. IMHO, by your given logic and action of removal of the language-pie we sould remove all statistics/data/derived-graphs/etc which is based on pre-division Andhra Pradesh stats. I'll suggest you restore back the language-pie or clear the article of all pre-division Andhra Pradesh stats. Thanks & happy editing.--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haidercs 16:14, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Faizhaider: The data in the article seems to be wrong too, yes, and should be corrected as soon as new data is available (data that someone ought to be able to compile from the latest census figures, since the census data most likely includes language distribution per district...). But a large graphic language pie is far more obvious than text, and far more likely to start a larger edit war than there already is, which is why I reverted your edit. Thomas.W 16:28, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
- Ok, got your point. Then to start with I'll remove obselete language stats.--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haidercs 16:46, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
- You can believe whatever you want, I rarely engage in edit-wars, at least I remember none in last few months. Also, you being European doesn't make you of any different status, Europeans too have POV and they may be inclined to one or other side due to any reason. FYI, the category was rather restored by me and not added. I'm just trying to restore the content which had been removed from article in frenzy of partition sentiments. I see these removals as ethnic/linguistic/communal POV-pushing. If something is uncertain than status-quo i.e. provious status should be maintained rather cleaning article by whims and fancies of few editors trying to delink post-partion AP from legacy of pre-partion AP.--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haidercs 18:02, 8 August 2014 (UTC)

Erasing my edits
Erasing my edits | |
Hello, Thomas W.,
I am Thompsonshep, the user whose edits you have labelled as "disruptive." On the contrary, I edit these languages in to reflect past colonisers of the respective places, or significant regional languages. In the future, please do not undo my edits. Thank you Thompsonshep (talk) 20:17, 13 August 2014 (UTC) |
- @Thompsonshep: Yes, I will undo your edits if you continue. This is the English language Misplaced Pages, and the only languages that are relevant are English and whatever language is official in the city, state or country that is the subject of each article. Chinese is not an official language in San Fransisco, Dutch, Swedish and Italian are not official languages in New Jersey, and so on. Which is why not only I but also several other editors have undone your edits. So stop. Thomas.W 20:27, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
If you insist on removing my edits, fine. But at least please try to be courteous about it.Thompsonshep (talk) 03:49, 14 August 2014 (UTC) Since I cannot resolve our conflict, I have opened up a conflict resolution board.Thompsonshep (talk) 13:11, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

Disruptive edits by 68.145.238.122
Hi Thomas, IP 68.145.238.122 is back with it's edits on Languages with official status in India. I saw your notice on User talk:68.145.238.122, after that too the IP continued and then I too posted a warning but it seems all these notices/warnings are falling on deaf ear.--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haidercs 08:11, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

Useful template
Aha! I spent an unfruitful 20 minutes looking for a template-abuse template, before I simply told them off on Drmies' page instead. Thank you, very useful. (Drmies has removed yours, but me, I like the irony of using a template to template a template-lover. :-)) I've added it to my warnings page, for any future occasions.

Gandapur
I sincerely appologize for the edit without any source but basically the information that i edited was more in relation to Pakistan as Pashtuns in Pakistan are called Pashtuns/Pakhtuns but in Afghanistan they are known as Afghans based on nationality. So thats why i changed the information as its related to a pakistani Pashtun tribe but unfortunately whoever has added the information has also provided no source to the article's confusing information such as Afghan tribes and Afghanpur. thankyou Saladin1987 14:50, 20 August 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saladin1987 (talk • contribs)
Inappropriate external links
Misplaced Pages can't be used for promotion of anything as far as it is concerned, no repeated content was given and thus there is no spam.
As for your remark, if you show me an irrelevant source to the article, I will explain it's relevancy in great detail and with great pleasure.
All of the sources that are used, are used either where additional sources were needed and marked as such, where there was information lacking (like the existence of a specific string gauge among the list of all existing string gauges) and where it was relevant. There really isn't much I could add. It will be my pleasure to show you that none of it was intended or aimed for promotion or gain of which none can be found or imagined.
Thank you for keeping it clean. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KyryllK (talk • contribs) 14:25, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- @KyryllK: Your edits were mass addition of external links to your own web site to multiple articles, in most cases only lightly disguised as references. In at least one case you even added multiple links to your web site to the same article. Which since Misplaced Pages's rules regarding advertising and conflict of interest among other things say that
"you should avoid linking to a site that you own, maintain, or represent—even if Misplaced Pages guidelines seem to imply that it may otherwise be linked"
, and Misplaced Pages's rules about linkspamming among other things say"Although the specific links may be allowed under some circumstances, repeatedly adding links will in most cases result in all of them being removed"
, led to all of them being reverted. Thomas.W 15:00, 21 August 2014 (UTC) - I can add that mass addition of links to the same external web site is almost always treated as linkspam/refspam, and reverted, even if there's no obvious connection between the user adding the links and the web site. Thomas.W 15:11, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

- @Thomas.W:Since I have expertise on this subject and there is much to be added on many pages for this subject, I am contributing to the things I am knowledgeable in. You would not want someone knowing about paint, writing about mechanical engineering. I will yield to a notion of more than one link for one source. It may be unnecessary even if is helpful. Every other accusation, I find unreasonable and on the surface. If there is a wiki page that needs improvements and I just happen to have an article about that topic, I will add it ("you should avoid" is not "do not add") because Wiki is for the knowledge pool of the people which you seem to have forgotten. Once again, all my contributions are relevant and adding to the topic. When I will get a nuclear chemist diploma in addition to the ones I currently hold, I will move on to a different topic. Until then, please let's continue keeping our eyes open for real spammers and not those who try to make a genuine difference with means at their disposal. Enjoy your day.
- @Thomas.W: I can understand Misplaced Pages must be cleaned of spammy links o links to promote websites, for example. In that case I can believe the The Verge wants to promote its web because you can find 3 external links to their posts. I can understand you have deleted all my edition but I have added information about the slow motion feature that it wasn't before. Please leave this info about slo-mo and one link about the internal storage is ok for the external links at Misplaced Pages documents.
Bologna, "Holy Roman Empire".
Hey, look!
As (even) you may see, Bologna was actually part of the Papal States when its University, the oldest in the World, was founded!
Your claims are null and void, and shall therefore be amended!
--82.49.38.74 (talk) 17:22, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- @82.49.38.74: Nope. According to that map it was part of Pentapolis, first under the Byzantines, then under the Lombards and from the end of the 10th century under the Holy Roman Empire, not becoming part of the Papal States until 1278AD. Which doesn't matter much, though, since the Papal States were also part of the Holy Roman Empire, and didn't become independent until around 1300AD. Which makes your claims null and void. Thomas.W 18:05, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure the Papal States de facto were born as an indipendent State, with the Donation of Sutri, which pretty much predates 1278... You know, not only I've been told so in university, but that was I've always known. Perhaps you've attended a better university, or read better books? The Misplaced Pages article on the Papal States consider themselves to be incepted at that time.
- Please, finish this. You're proving yourself (and your knowledge) of utter and total irrelevance.--82.49.38.74 (talk) 18:34, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- I assume you refer to the Treaty of Venice in 1177, which is when the Papal States became independent on paper. Being independent on paper and being independent in real life are two different things, though. And the Papal States didn't become independent in real life until around 1300AD. Which still doesn't matter in this case since A), the University of Bologna was founded in 1088, 89 years before the Treaty of Venice, and B) the area around Bologna wasn't part of the Papal States even in 1177. Your rude/unpolished style and attitude is becoming a bit boring BTW, making me doubt that you have any education past primary school. Thomas.W 18:47, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- Ohhh, isn't that exactly what your registered-users mafia brands as personal attacks if coming from an IP, yet ranks as fari play for them? :) Very mature, sir. Very mature indeed.
- And do not doubt it, I'm at university, taking a PhD in Classical Humanities, and the average of my marks is 29,75 (out of 30). --82.49.38.74 (talk) 19:22, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- Sir, kindly play nice please. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 19:27, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
- Very impressive. Not. How about sticking to the subject? Or is it becoming too embarrassing? Before the Treaty of Venice in 1177 the Papal States was a vassal state of the Holy Roman Empire, with the Pope exercising temporal powers in the Papal States only as a vassal of the Emperor (don't they teach you that in school in Italy?), meaning that there is no doubt whatsoever about Bologna being part of the Holy Roman Empire in 1088, which is what this discussion is about. Period. Thomas.W 19:32, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page Isis (disambiguation). However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:
- Be familiar with the guidelines and style
- Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
- Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
- Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
- Only add a "red link" if used in an article, and include the "blue link" to that article
- Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
- Do not insert external links or references
See WP:NOTBROKEN and WP:DABREDIR WP:DABACRO Re . The comment and talk page cover this. Instead of editing away a valid redirect, please discuss on the talk page per consensus building. Widefox; talk 18:13, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Widefox: I am familiar with it, thank you. You are now at three reverts within 24 hours on that page, and I could have replied to your template by slapping a 3RR-warning on your talk page. I don't usually template regulars, though, but you can consider this comment a 3RR-warning. From what I can see you are the only one who is edit-warring on the page, fighting to keep your preferred version, even though everyone else seems to be against you. So I suggest you self-revert, before I or someone else template you for edit-warring. Thomas.W 18:34, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
- Good, you are familiar, then did you see WP:DABREDIR is satisfied? as detailed in the comment and talk page by me and others. Excuse the template - meant to inform, not template a regular. You are probably right about 3RR, I haven't counted. If you feel you must template me then you must do what you feel.
- Redirects are OK and satisfied here - two dab project editors disagree with you, along with at least one other editor. Both me and the other dab project have been undone. LOCALCONSENSUS maybe. Anyhow, care to reason on my open talk page consensus building request? Widefox; talk 18:55, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Kosovo
Why did you revert my edit? I didn't remove or touch the 2014 estimates, I kept them to match the 2014 GDP estimates. All I did was simply remove the 1991 census and replace it with the 2011 census. I think you ought to read my edit summary and view the changes I made. IJA (talk) 15:25, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
- @IJA: You also removed the footnote in the infobox that explained why there's a 2014 population estimate, and not figures from the (apparently not complete) 2011 census. The 2014 IMF GDP estimate was added yesterday by an editor who then used old population figures to compute GDP per capita, giving a GDP per capita that was considerably higher than it should be. Which is why I'm a bit sensitive about it (see my comment on that editor's talk page). Perhaps too sensitive. Cheers. Thomas.W 15:39, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
- OK but you must be a bit confused as you can clearly see from my edit that I didn't remove the footnote "a. 2014 estimate. A new estimate has been added in order to give a more correct GDP per capita." I removed "b.

- OK but you must be a bit confused as you can clearly see from my edit that I didn't remove the footnote "a. 2014 estimate. A new estimate has been added in order to give a more correct GDP per capita." I removed "b. This census is a reconstruction, as it was mostly boycotted by the ethnic Albanian majority" footnote from the infobox. Regards IJA (talk) 15:47, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
SpaceX and user Unbiased Victory
Just to let you know that I toned down your warning on this user's talk page. I already gave him a level 3 for his most recent infringement so it's not appropriate to scale it up to level 4 for the same infringement. However I retained your comments to give him something to think about. Cheers. andy (talk) 16:33, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Andyjsmith: It's fine with me, but repeatedly and knowingly entering false information with a reference that contradicts the information added, i.e. a fake reference, deserves a very stern warning, especially when it is being done over and over again over a very long period of time. So IMO you guys have been to soft on him. Thomas.W 16:41, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
reliable source
Ref mentioned in bigg boss 8 for nisha yadav cast was wrong. it was just correct by the right one and Telly TRP is not a spam, it is registered publication which qualifies for reliable source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanjayrealman (talk • contribs) 09:20, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
- That was only part of what you did, you also replaced a reference pointing to a large general news site with a reference to the site that you're spamming all over the place. Thomas.W 09:35, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
Second was removed by mistake Sanjayrealman (talk
- Since all you seem to do is adding links/references to that particular website, you can't afford to make mistakes like that... Thomas.W 10:03, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
Request
Sir, this is to request you for deletion about Urdu language on Andhra pradesh https://en.wikipedia.org/Languages_with_official_status_in_India#States page. I've seen your debate with faizhaider on AP talk page. Same the reference which you said that 13 yrs back book ref doesn't suit the present situation is kept here too.
Same the discussion happened between me to faizhaider about urdu as a official language. But he didn't accepted it. It happened 1 month earlier. Because a user: @visakaha veera also raised the same objection. But after a 3 days long discussion we both disgusted with faizhaider views, left that discussion. And also he warned us as a administrator that he will block us from WP for edits. As I'm a new editor I can't get quarrel with that person. so please take action against that person if you can.Svpnikhil (talk) 18:42, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
Bigg Boss 8
I removed the section stating the appropriate reason Thomas. The section is mere speculation. None of the citations provided are reliable and such information before the launch of a reality show can be perceived as a potential 'spoiler'. Furthermore it is absolutely unnecessary. Please review the section again. I hope you'll understand where I am coming from. Thanks. --TizSweg (talk) 11:29, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

You can have a glance at this page once.--Vin09 (talk) 18:03, 14 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Vin09: It's a bit unencyclopaedic in tone, like something out of a tourist brochure, but it's not promotion by Misplaced Pages's standards. Juru sreenivas's editing is clearly disruptive, though, seen as the sum total of his contributions. Thomas.W 18:23, 14 September 2014 (UTC)

I apologize for my interference to your warnings. Actions by deleting the messages. However, I do not want records on my page, therefore I was eager to delete them. I will focus my attentions on now to change information with further proof.
One small request, deletion of your last post on my user page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by KalyEV. (talk • contribs)

Croatian Army
http://en.wikipedia.org/Croatian_Army
WTF are you reverting my edits, read pdf files, or stop ruining articles, alternatively I can contact Wiki owners and have them explain it to you how reference works. revert back to my edits as they're properly referenced with new defence white paper. Man you have some serious issues. http://www.morh.hr/hr/vijesti-najave-i-priopcenja/priopcenja/112-zakoni-i-strategije/savjetovanja/10422-nacrt-prijedloga-dugorocnog-plana-razvoja-oruznih-snaga-rh-2015-2024.html & http://www.morh.hr/images/stories/morh_2014/pdf/savjetovanja/24092014/dpr_osrh_2015-2024_24092014.pdf
Really pisses me off when you go without any idea and mess things up, not sure who the main admin is here but unless you revert my corrections I am reporting you to Misplaced Pages. If you can't speak Croatian, don't touch articles let Anglo Croatian editors do the edits, and yes I am an Anglo Croat!
To repeat Croatian Army has only 72 active M84 tanks, not 72, defence white paper - read on. all referenced. i mean seriously man you have some serious issues. reporting you to Jimbo Wales, have his emial and sending your details now. you make another stupid edit you can be assured I'll do my best to have you reported and removed as an editor on wikiepdia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.151.44.209 (talk) 16:13, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
- Misplaced Pages is an encyclopaedia, not a fanblog or personal website, meaning that everything added must be accompanied by proof of being correct. So read Misplaced Pages's rules about reliable sources, verifiability and burden of proof before trying to lecture anyone, or trying to add more material. And note that it's up to you to provide that reference, not me. Also note that other Misplaced Pages articles can not be used as references. According to the rules any material that isn't supported by a reliable verifiable in-line citation (reference) can be removed, which is exactly what I did, and will continue to do if you don't provide references. Oh, and by all means feel free to report me to "the main admin", whoever that would be, but don't bother trying to contact "Misplaced Pages's owners", because I most probably know the rules that apply here on the English language Misplaced Pages at least as well as they do.
