Jo Tong Sop

Even though the hook isn't catchy I think it is fine beacuse my DYK for Koji Gyotoku has the same hook just different country and it was accepted. Spongie555 (talk) 21:40, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

user name

I wonder how many people get the pun in your user name. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face; I was using Unix back in the '70s before it was trendy. Displaying the mode as letters instead of octal was a great step forward. Hope I explained about the double DYK nomination. W Nowicki (talk) 23:34, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! I've had objections to it on the grounds that it looks spammy, hard to spell, and so on, but I see it as a nod towards the spirit of Misplaced Pages, a resource that anybody can edit and use. Good luck with your DYK. Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 23:47, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

DYK for El Fonoll

DYK?

Are yo still reviewing the article Jo Tong Sop for DYK? Spongie555 (talk) 05:26, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

I'll have another look at it. Cheers. Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 09:57, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

I have expanded the article more. it should be over 1500 now. Spongie555 (talk) 03:31, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

The alt hook was already agreed earlier in the nomination but i put it there again for you. Spongie555 (talk) 03:08, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Is it good now? Spongie555 (talk) 04:11, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

There is a new development in the hook if you would like to look again at the nominatio. Spongie555 (talk) 08:12, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

The nomination was restored if you would like to review it again. There is a new proposed hook. Spongie555 (talk) 04:19, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Are you still reviewing this nomination? It's almost one month old. Spongie555 (talk) 18:26, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

False positives for intentional disambig links.

Please avoid creating false positives to disambig links as you did here when you created a ] link. The reason intentional disambig links must go through the actual ] redirect is to keep them from showing up on the lists of links requiring repair (see WP:INTDABLINK for the statement of policy). Cheers! bd2412 T 13:43, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Hey,

Since you're a free software user in Ireland, I thought I'd mention http://ifso.ie . They don't use their public list much these days but they're still active and hold monthly meetings in Dublin. Gronky (talk) 21:59, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Galaxy Note

Steve Jobs died before the Samsung Galaxy Note was introduced, so his quotation about hating styluses doesn't refer to the Galaxy Note. It also isn't necessary to include an entire history of the stylus in the article on a single product. Please stay on topic. White 720 (talk) 16:35, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

• Thanks for talking about this. The stylus is one of the major talking-points among reviewers of the Galaxy Note, mainly as a result of its recent fall from use and Jobs's outspoken views. It's only natural that that context would be mentioned here. It is certainly not a full history of styluses, just enough to establish the context. However I don't see how your addition "despite the negative review from Steve Jobs of Apple, the Galaxy Note stylus implementation ..." makes sense, since, as you point out, Jobs was not alive to review it. Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 17:46, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

I've edited the article, citing sources who hold similar views to the late Mr. Jobs and who don't want consumers to buy Samsung Galaxy Note. White 720 (talk) 16:23, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Widefox; talk 16:07, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

• That is an unwarranted personal attack. You have been engaging in confrontational editing, with your hostile edit summary and now this ridiculous message. You have failed to point to any WP policy saying a video like the one linked must not be referenced; however I have no trouble with dropping it as I have provided more reliable sources (which you also removed, but later restored). You have also removed other citations with no explanation. Please restore them, and be WP:CIVIL in the future. Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 17:23, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

You're kidding, right. Did you read the guideline WP:RS I pointed to here and here? "However, audio, video, and multimedia materials that have been recorded then broadcast, distributed, or archived by a reputable third party may also meet the necessary criteria to be considered reliable sources. Like text sources, media sources must be produced by a reliable third party and be properly cited. Additionally, an archived copy of the media must exist." Is the video you linked to even free from copyright issues, and other (WP:Video links) issues? Widefox; talk 18:25, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

I have already said I have no problem with dropping that video, since I have provided more reliable sources. Please restore the other citations you removed. Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 19:27, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi, now you've restored it, I can see which ref you were referring to. Yes, I agree I removed that by mistake with this undo - removing the festes ref in two places. I'd misread the youtube ref as being named festes, I would have restored them if I'd noticed or you'd said which, hope that clears that up? Widefox; talk 13:56, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Interpretation of WP:MOSTM

I've seen that you moved a lot of Xperia-related articles per WP:MOSTM, i.e. Sony Xperia Go. The official name uses the lowercase "g" letter. WP:MOSTM recommends to "Capitalize trademarks, as with proper names" and talks about capitalization of "trademarks that begin with a lowercase letter", however "Xperia go" does already begin with an uppercase letter ("Xperia") and WP:MOSTM doesn't say anything about capitalization of trademarks with composite names, so I think we should keep the official name. ekerazha (talk) 06:57, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
