== Question about DS alerts/notices ==

Hey, Doug! I keep a at the top of my user page where it's easy to see (it's a custom design I borrowed from MPants & made some of my own modifications). It helps eliminate repeated postings of DS Alerts which can be rather frustrating to receive when you frequently edit DS topic areas. Besides, there is also a notice on the article TP and in edit view of the actual article (I believe). So...where is the best venue to present this idea - would it be AE, or ARCA (or somewhere else)? ] <sub>]</sub> ] 04:54, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

The current date and time is 22 January 2025 T 05:02 UTC. You can email me from this link but in the interests of Wiki-transparency, please message me on this page unless there are pressing reasons to do otherwise. Comments which I find to be uncivil, full of vulgarities, flame baiting, or that are excessively rude may be deleted without response. If I choose not to answer, that's my right; don't keep putting it back. I'll just delete and get annoyed at you.

This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated.

Notice Coming here to ask why I reverted your edit? Read this page first...

Please leave me new messages at the bottom of the page; click here to start a new section at the bottom. I usually notice messages soon. I attempt to keep conversations in one location, as I find it easier to follow them that way when they are archived. If you open a new conversation here, I will respond to you here. Please watchlist this page or check back for my reply. If I have already left a message at your talk page, unless I've requested follow-up here or it is a standard template message, I am watching it. If you leave your reply here, I may respond at your talk page if it seems better for context. If you aren't sure if I'm watching your page, or I'm slow to reply, feel free to approach me here.


Welcome to my talk page! I am an administrator here on Misplaced Pages. That means I am here to help. It does not mean that I have any special status or something, it just means that I get to push a few extra buttons to help maintain this encyclopedia.

If you need help with something, feel free to ask. Click here to start a new topic.
If I have not made any edits in a while, (check) you may get a faster response by posting your request in a more centralized place.


Did I delete your page, block you, or do something else that I should not have done?
First, please remember that I am not trying to attack you, demean you, or hurt you in any way. I am only trying to protect the integrity of this project. If I did something wrong, let me know, but remember that I am human, and I do make mistakes. Please keep your comments civil. If you vandalize this page or swear at me, you will not only decrease the likelihood of a response, your edits could get you blocked. (see WP:NPA)

When posting, do not assume I know which article you are talking about. If you leave a message saying "Why did you revert me?", I will not know what you mean. If you want a response consisting of something other than "What are you talking about", please include links and, if possible, diffs in your message. At the very least, mention the name of the article or user you are concerned with.
Also, if you sign your post (by typing four tildes - ~~~~ - at the end of your message), I will respond faster, and I will tend to be in a better mood, because unsigned comments are one of my pet peeves.

If you are blocked from editing, you cannot post here, but your talk page is most likely open for you to edit. To request a review of your block, add {{unblock|reason}} to your talk page. (replace reason with why you think you should not be blocked.) I watch the talk pages of everyone I block, so I will almost definitely see you make your request. If I am making edits (check Special:Contributions/Doug Weller) and I do not answer your request soon, or you cannot edit your talk page for some reason, you can try sending me an email. Please note, however, that I rarely check my email more than a few times a day, so it may be a couple of hours before I respond.

Administrators: If you see me do something that you think is wrong, I will not consider it wheel-warring if you undo my actions. I would, however, appreciate it if you let me know what I did wrong, so that I can avoid doing it in the future.

Book of Exodus

Your patience is amazing. Editor2020 (talk) 00:41, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

@Editor2020: a very belated thanks. I try. 😀 Doug Weller talk 19:16, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

ANI issue

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is 128.77.80.116 editing/deleting with strong POV. Jayjg 13:04, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

No objections from me, but I think that something the IP wrote, amid the crap, was overlooked. They had a more than legitimate grievance that mentioning Puin several times was execrably bad practice(what Arabs believe is in good part garbled junk, unlike what we believe was the implicit message of whoever added it four times). Bish restored all of them, I presume just dutifully reverting the chap's havoc. But that only left the POV hammering complained of intact,- even though remarked on - unfixed. No one would care to wipe her arse on any of the criticism pages of the Abrahamic trilogy, but compare Criticism of the Bible (a key Judaic and Christian work) with a paltry 14kb of readable prose, despite a huge amount of scholarly material tearing it apart in silence, and Criticism of the Qur'an at 42 kb, and you see the Judeo-Christian systemic bias at work. I say this as an utter pagan who regards all these foundational texts as interesting only philologically, textually and for the hermeneutic puzzles they create in prolix abundance. The intensity of hostile focus on what Muslims believe in wins hands down. I would suggest in future that folks keep things like this in mind. His complaint could have been fixed in a few spare minutes, making the sanction, just as it was, a little more palatable. Nishidani (talk) 20:53, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
(edit conflict) You put it well, Nishidani: I was indeed just dutifully reverting the chap's havoc. Thank you for going a little deeper than I did. Bishonen | talk 20:58, 7 May 2019 (UTC).

Recent revert

You say that we should not say today in Misplaced Pages, look at Service Merchandise, this edit here, it says today in the sentence. Thank you!--63.209.32.242 (talk) 18:49, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Not anymore. I reworded it properly. But I'm sure you find other examples: see WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. Feel free to remove/reword if you find any, though.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:54, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
Thanks. Doug Weller talk 19:12, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Why are you closely monitoring my edits and contributions?

You jumped on me with a direct message after I joined and made my first edit, with a very mundane trivial negative accusation.

If you plan on following me permanently from page to page, edit to edit, I’ll have to report this stalking activity. It’s most disturbing as a new member.

Your history suggests you have a very close personal related bias with the Armstrong church and it’s related Misplaced Pages articles, dating back some time here at Misplaced Pages.

I can provide you my email, Twitter, FB and IG accounts if you would like to closely follow me on those accounts as well.

@Expresscoffee: feel free to report me but you might wish to read WP:HOUNDING first. I don't want to upset a new user but my comment was simply pointing out the calling a content change "fixed typos" was not helpful, and if you mean it was a mild statement I agree. It wasn't actually trival, editors are expected to believe that if an edit summary says fixed typos then there's no need to see if it changed content - does that sound reasonable? You could always have asked me why I was reverting you by the way.

I will point out that I wasn't the first person to put a message on your talk page expressing concern. I have absolutely no relationship with the Armstrong church or indeed any denomination opposed to it.

I'm not trying to make your editing experience miserable, I'm simply trying to make sure the articles conform to our guidelines and policy. Where I have failed is not giving you a welcome notice and I've tried to make up for that just now. Doug Weller talk 09:53, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

"Outdated materiall, see the main article on the Solutrean hypothesis"

This isn't an oudated material and yes this theory is still heavily discussed https://www.academia.edu/9562579/Solutrean_hypothesis_genetics_the_mammoth_in_the_room this article date is 2014 so it's not oudated on the solutrean hypotesis page there is only one article more recent saying "A 2015 re-evaluation of the DNA evidence states that "X2a has not been found anywhere in Eurasia, and phylogeography gives us no compelling reason to think it is more likely to come from Europe than from Siberia. Furthermore, analysis of the complete genome of Kennewick Man, who belongs to the most basal lineage of X2a yet identified, gives no indication of recent European ancestry and moves the location of the deepest branch of X2a to the West Coast, consistent with X2a belonging to the same ancestral population as the other founder mitochondrial haplogroups. Nor have any high-resolution studies of genome-wide data from Native American populations yielded any evidence of Pleistocene European ancestry or trans-Atlantic gene flow."" with this article i can say that the theory is still heavily discussed and saying thaht it is irrelevant and with little scientific support is completly subjective and a political position, this theory isn't false like all the other explaining the x2a mtdna haplogoup presence in native american, we need more scientific discoveries to adopt one of the three theory ( trans altaic flow and siberian extinction of x2a, paleo indian or the solutrean hypotesis

Responded on talk page, but this need to be on the talk page of the main article, not an article mentioning it. Doug Weller talk 14:11, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Would you MIND if I credit the true source to my unsourced examples?

Also, are YOU a Jew (i.e. Jewish people)? Quang, Bùi Huy (talk) 09:22, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

@Bhuyquang1: Color me gobsmacked. What kind of question is that? Doug Weller talk 09:56, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Thank you! I agree with you, but, what does the sentence: I'm referring to your addition of Zionism as an ideology mean?Quang, Bùi Huy (talk) 10:12, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Responded on talk page. Doug Weller talk 14:10, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Tildes

Four tildes, not five, Doug. It's probably better you re-sign than me adding some template. Bishonen | talk 14:06, 8 May 2019 (UTC).

Done, thanks. Doug Weller talk 14:11, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Question about DS alerts/notices

Hey, Doug! I keep a DS Notice at the top of my user page where it's easy to see (it's a custom design I borrowed from MPants & made some of my own modifications). It helps eliminate repeated postings of DS Alerts which can be rather frustrating to receive when you frequently edit DS topic areas. Besides, there is also a notice on the article TP and in edit view of the actual article (I believe). So...where is the best venue to present this idea - would it be AE, or ARCA (or somewhere else)?
