Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 05:44, 21 September 2009

Hello, welcome to Misplaced Pages. Here's some tips:

• You can introduce yourself on the new users page.
• You can sign your name using three tildes, like ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
• Remember to use the show preview button before you save a page.
• If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page.

Other useful pages are: how to edit, how to write a great article, naming conventions, manual of style and the Misplaced Pages policies.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Angela. 21:07, Apr 17, 2004 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• The Five Pillars of Misplaced Pages
• How to edit a page
• Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style
• If you're ready for the complete list of Misplaced Pages documentation, there's also Misplaced Pages:Topical index.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome!

Baha'i icon

First off welcome to Misplaced Pages! :) Anyway - just refering to Media:Bahai.jpg. Thanks for it, but do you know the licence under which it is available? If you could link me to the site I'll try and find out. Its just that you've not put any licence up. It's probably available under fair use, but I'd rather check.

Cheers -- Tomhab 21:19, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It SHOULD be public domain (and I've changed the page to reflect this). However, this is assuming that the Baha'i Universal House of Justice has no copyright on the image. - DNewhall

MUMPS

A recent discussion near the top of the Talk:MUMPS concerns me. User:Spinoza1111, self-identified as Edward G. Nilges, seems far from neutral in his personal opinions of MUMPS. This does not mean he won't be able to edit neutrally. He may provide useful balance in some parts of the article. Don't overreact to his edits, but do keep MUMPS on your watchlist. See his comments at http://www.developerdotstar.com/community/node/279 . BTW He says he is downloading a free MUMPS and intends to familiarize himself with it before editing the MUMPS article.

WikiProject Fascism

Violence and propaganda are two separate things. Plus the bullet point says "or" anyway, so why would you object to two separate bullet points? Thanks. Icemountain 01:24, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Juan Peron

Please, re your comment:

Correct, Juan Peron was not fascist so I have removed the tag. In fact, the last sentence in Passmore's book in the section about Peron (pg. 87) is "The Peronist regime also left room for opposition - it was neither totalitarian nor fascist."

• I'm not familiar with Passmore. Can you give me a reference to his book? Jclerman 01:42, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks very much for the reference. Passmore's statements appear to be strongly contradicted by new postings to the Talk:Peron page which would support reinstating the tag. Jclerman 19:52, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Fascism Portal

Thanks for making a start, I've been too busy the last few days and was hoping someone would take the lead on this Lurker 13:22, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

rfC re: National Bolshevik Party

Please check out and comment on the Rfc filed against me for trying to have NBP libel about me removed. Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_comment/69.253.195.228

VFDed Post-object programming

I've VFDed Post-object programming, and seen you contributed to the article, so maybe are interested in the deletion discussion. --euyyn 01:08, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Collectivism and Intangible

Some of us are having the same discussion over at Nazism. Intangible seems out of control. I am considering an arbitration. I was just seeking a compromise. A number of allies of Intangible seem to be lining up to support the addition of collectivism in a didactic manner to at least two pages. Any suggestions welcome. I am at a lose to figure out what to do.--Cberlet 01:40, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

New Force and Corporatism

Could you possibly elaborate on your labelling of New Force as a political party in favor of corporatism perhaps with some sources? I know many Social Alternative voters and have never once heard them or their local candidates advocate corporatism. --NEMT 20:25, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Please do not prevent editing

I am in the process of expanding the Eiffel article. A top-down process where the titles come first, then the contents in the next couple of days, is perfectly reasonable. Please do not interfere with the rewriting; the article is very bad as it stands and it will take a lot of work to get it right. Thanks in advance. Fuchsias 21:16, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

RfM

User:Cberlet seems to be on the road. Is this a problem for mediation? Intangible 12:14, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually, that would be a massive problem. I've removed him from the RfM, at least for now, so it won't get automatically rejected. - DNewhall 12:30, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Labarum & Fasces

I do not agree with the remark (and the edit) that labarum has nothing to do with fasces. I draw your attention to the passage from Fasces.

The axe represented the ultimate power of high justice to execute (decapitate), and has a long history in the eastern Mediterranean — such as the labrys, the Anatolian and Minoan double-headed axe, which were later incorporated into the praetorial fasces.

The ideas are closely related and should be not ignored. --Aethralis 12:01, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Fascism and Nazism as representative forms of socialism

I am sorry to bother you, but I really need some help. There is an ongoing campaign by a few editors to portray Fascism and Nazism as representative forms of socialism. As part of this effort (a debate that stretches back to 2004), there are a tiny handful of editors who revert and redirect National Socialism to Nazism. I believe a majority of editors support redirecting National Socialism to National Socialism (disambiguation). I realize we just had a poll on the Nazism page where I thought this issue was settled, but apparently the struggle is not over. Please consider voting in the new poll, or adding a comment at: Talk:Nazism#Survey:_redirecting_National_Socialism. Also consider notifying other editors with an interest in this matter. I am doing the best I can, but need assistance. Thanks.--Cberlet 19:35, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Collapsable sections

Hi! You have done considerable work on the {{Fascism sidebar}}. There has been considerable discussion on the issue of the collapsable sections of templates like that one. I created a centralized place for discussion about this issue here. I hope you can bring your views to the discussion. - C mon (talk) 18:32, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Nikki (Dead or Alive character)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Nikki (Dead or Alive character), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Creation of new Wiki Ultradispensationalism page

Hello, I have created a new Wiki page Ultradispensationalism which accommodates E. W. Bullinger Acts 28 theology and I have moved all of the content from this Hyperdispensationalism page, along with all references and improved layout to that page. This change has been needed for a long time, as the two systems of belief of Ultradispensationalism and Hyperdispensationalism are clearly two separate systems of belief. I hope that you will continue to enjoy editing Misplaced Pages Mysteryofthegospel (talk) 08:02, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Fascism Portal

Hello DNewhall. A couple of years ago you were the creator and primary maintainer of Portal:Fascism. Over the last few weeks I've redesigned the portal, put in random components, added a few new selections, etc. I could use your help maintaining the portal. Could you please lend a hand? I've nominated a few selected articles I'd like you to vote on at Portal:Fascism/Maintenance. Thanks. Ecto (talk) 22:51, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Pinochet and Fascism

I wondered if you would look at the article. I am failing to see the corporatism second prong for him to be a fascist. What do you think?--Die4Dixie (talk) 05:44, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
