Misplaced Pages

Archiving?

Hold on. Derogatory? Your edit repeats CISA in the same sentence. It's not derogatory to omit redundancy not found in the source.- MrX 14:00, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

P.S. Unceremoniously deleting your talk page content in the middle of a discussion is not nice, and it's certainly not "archiving". - MrX 14:00, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

You posted virtually the same material at the article talk page. Don't make me repeat myself in two places. Go there. And I'll archive this talk age whenever I damn well feel like it.Anythingyouwant (talk) 14:04, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

Schmücke dich

Thanks for improving Schmücke dich, o liebe Seele, BWV 180! You may have seen that I try to improve one cantata per week to GA standard, managed for the 19th Sunday after Trinity, next will be the 21st (because it was not yet on DYK and needs preparation time for that), then the one. Your help is very welcome. Compare to Ich will den Kreuzstab gerne tragen, BWV 56 for the changes needed. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:44, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Thanks Gerda. Right now, I am primarily removing duplicates from The Sound List. That's why I had to figure out whether Bach was really the composer of Schmücke dich, o liebe Seele, or whether Cruger was (the Sound List credited both of them as composer). Cheers.Anythingyouwant (talk) 12:48, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Bach didn't write hymn tunes ;) - One of the biggest misconceptions around. When Messiah was on its way to be FA, it said something about "Bach's hymn", but Handel quoted only the melody which is by Nicolai. Makes me understand that I should point that out more: "text by, melody by". Chorale cantata (Bach) has them all nicely together. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:59, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

I doubt that midi files help understanding Bach's music in historic context. Please raise the question if they should be added at project classical music, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:17, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

Sure, I will raise the question there later today. I don't usually find midi files helpful, but the ex-midi files are exceptionally good at . Those are the ones you're referring to, right?Anythingyouwant (talk) 13:38, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

Commented, thanks for the invitation. Re BWV 147, arrangements of "Jesus, joy ..." have so little to do with Bach's cantata that I would prefer no sound files of it there. Perhaps we should have a separate article on that all-too-famous piece. - Generally: can we first discuss and then add more sound? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:23, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

I was uncertain whether to include the files at both BWV 147 and at Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, and so I have now removed them from the former, leaving them at the latter. I was also uncertain whether to use the MIDI files at Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern, BWV_1, and we are currently having a good discussion about it which is fine with me. In cases where I am uncertain, I would be glad to try discussing-first-and-adding-later. Cheers.Anythingyouwant (talk) 12:41, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Jeb Bush image

Hello Ferrylodge. If you weren't so quick to mindlessly revert here you would see that the image has not been considered and is clearly better.--William S. Saturn (talk) 05:21, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

The image is a cropped version of one that was already considered and that I uploaded. The link to previous discussion is in my edit summary. The cropped image that you support is less recent than the one you replaced, and less formal too. I don't think it's too much to ask that you get consensus for it.Anythingyouwant (talk) 11:33, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Ben Carson

I see you edited his profile approximately four hours ago. Did it have to do with his parents? Cocogirly (talk) 16:18, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

I don't understand your question. My recent edits didn't involve his parents. Why do you ask?Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:12, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Fiorina

Perhaps my edit summary was too terse. The RFC close said "no consensus" -- the plurality of votes for one alternative or another is not the standard we use to resolve disagreements. You should not cite the RFC close, which did not find consensus and therefore does not support the change you made. The number of votes is not a justification for such change. Please revert yourself. Thanks. SPECIFICO talk 02:37, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

The more stable image is the one that sat atop the article longer, right? That would not be the one with the red dress.Anythingyouwant (talk) 02:46, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

No that's not correct. We don't do "more stable" any more than we count votes. The point is that the RFC closed "no consensus" and it was misrepresented on the basis of "more votes" for the retouched photo. It's not clear to me why we should publish a retouched photo of a living person anyway. SPECIFICO talk 03:45, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Your edit summary said that you were restoring the more stable version. So I then pointed out that the more stable version is actually not the red-dress image. And now you're saying to forget about stability. In addition to forgetting about which image has more support as stated in the RFC close.

So now your criterion seems to be whether a photo is retouched or not. As far as I know, this image (as uploaded on 6 July) is not retouched, and honestly I can't see any significant difference between that 6 July image and this image from 30 September. More importantly, Misplaced Pages uses retouched photos all the time, and that's mostly what happens at WP:Graphics Lab.Anythingyouwant (talk) 03:58, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Its wikimedia page says its retouched. A retouched photo of a living person is of particular concern. I didn't say "forget stability" -- the fact is the RfC was misrepresented as the basis for the change when it was reviewed and closed as no consensus. As long as there are editors waiting to edit war it back in, there's no point in anybody trying to enforce that close, but sooner or later other editors will see what's happening and the other photo will be restored. SPECIFICO talk 16:02, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

The RFC was closed as no consensus. I never said otherwise. The RFC close also indicated that the red-dress photo is not the one with the most support. Now, if you would like to come here again and accuse me of misrepresentation, any such further comment will be deleted.Anythingyouwant (talk) 16:14, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

Please re-read my comment. Nowhere did I say that you misrepresented anything. Ironic. None of this is worth nitpicking. As I said, others will chime in and do the right thing. SPECIFICO talk 16:41, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

HC

Hi there. I was thinking of trying to improve the Hillary Clinton article, and I am wondering if you have any advice about that.Anythingyouwant (talk) 15:58, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

@Anythingyouwant: That article does need work, and in its current state primarily presents only a POV positive to the subject. My only advice -- just be aware that you will likely run into a whole barrage of other editors bent upon sanitizing and reverting anything added that might be taken in a negative light about the subject of the article, and who are not above the sort of aggressive undoing that could be taken by some as Misplaced Pages:bullying tactics. --- Professor JR (talk) 16:35, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

Yes, such practices are not uncommon at Misplaced Pages, sometimes at the highest levels. The logic appears to be something like: "I believe the content should be a certain way, and therefore any means are acceptable to accomplish that, and if it cannot be accomplished by following the rules then we have the wonderful WP:IAR". It's not a pretty sight, nor an acceptable one.Anythingyouwant (talk) 16:50, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

Hmm, I very much doubt that this edit of mine is worth a template or even a friendly warning. YMMV.Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:58, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

You'd prefer the template for the other 3RR? Your recent edits have been rather obstinate and that's not in the spirit of the Arbcom sanctions. Just trying to give a civil warning here. SPECIFICO talk 20:01, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Rubio

There is no need for condescension, nor for silliness. You specifically said that that Kurtz quote was to balance out the "House of Horrors" reference. In direct response, I removed both references. If you disagree and want to keep the Kurtz quote in any case, fine - we can talk about it on article talk. Neutrality 03:24, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

You made this exact same comment at your talk page, and I have replied there.Anythingyouwant (talk) 03:26, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

In the interests of moving forward, if you give me 5 minutes I'll make an edit that I think we might all agree to. Neutrality 03:30, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

How is this look? I restored Kurtz, plus added an additional salient point. Neutrality 03:44, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

Looks like other editors have weighed in, so perhaps the matter is moot now.Anythingyouwant (talk) 12:06, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Donald Trump Redirect

Hey,

I was linked to "Donald Trump and Fascism" from Google News, even though it was a redirect--I think maybe it should just be deleted altogether and not be a redirect, because people might think it's a real article or draw conclusions about Misplaced Pages after the redirect.

I just decided to tell you about this because I saw you were active on Donald Trump and the other talk pages are protected. I just didn't want to not mention it. 69.38.189.130 (talk) 07:39, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

Okay, I tagged it for deletion.Anythingyouwant (talk) 08:26, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

It goes to the campaign page so that the link goes somewhere where there are a number of comparisons of his rhetoric to fascism. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:29, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

But it's gone so good either way. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:32, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

I deleted the thing with the idiocy at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Donald Trump and Fascism. I knew putting it back wouldn't be a good idea. At least we're done until the socks find the next way to word it. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:39, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

question from a journalist

Hi Anythingyouwant! I’m a journalist with The New York Times. I’m writing a story about the role Misplaced Pages plays in U.S. politics, particularly the presidential race. I’d like to talk to a couple of frequent editors on pages related to the candidates and the election -- and you seem to fit that description. I’d want to ask you about what motivates you to edit Misplaced Pages, how you see Misplaced Pages’s role in the election and how you balance your own political views (if any) with ensuring Misplaced Pages stays fair. Thanks! If you’d be willing to help, please let me know. I’m jeremy.merrill@nytimes.com on email and gchat/XMPP, jeremybmerrill on Skype and +1-212-556-1262.

Mozart

Hi, not to bother you, but I really don't get the motive for removing your note in Mozart talk page, which did touch an important question, and feeling. Why isn't it the right place? Cheers. Carlotm (talk) 21:47, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Carlotm, no problem, thanks for visiting my humble Misplaced Pages abode. Honestly, I didn't mean to put that comment at article talk. Instead, I meant to put it at user talk, and that's where I put it. The reason for putting it at user talk instead of article talk, is because it seemed like a more behavioral issue than a content issue. Please feel free to link to that comment of mine, or quote it, but it seems like it's at the right place. Cheers.Anythingyouwant (talk) 21:54, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

If anything, my exceptionality lies only with dullness. Carlotm (talk) 22:42, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

I'm not sure I get your meaning. Can you please elaborate? I didn't think we were talking about exceptionality. Anyway, cheers.Anythingyouwant (talk) 22:46, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

I was simply lamenting my lethargy in understanding your explanation. Cheers. Carlotm (talk) 01:22, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Okay, I appreciate your concern. Hopefully, I was able to improve the Mozart article a little bit, for a little while.Anythingyouwant (talk) 01:30, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Little help!?

Hi! I'm so sorry for posting a serious complaint about Donald Trump, but... how can I get to the forum about him? :/ --62.63.238.24 (talk) 23:01, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

There's lots of griping about Trump at redstate, which is a fairly open forum.Anythingyouwant (talk) 23:54, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks Zach. I'm not sure that I've earned the barnstar yet, since there's lots of work to do still at that article, but I'm glad to take the barnstar in view of both past and future performance. 😎Cheers.Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:02, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. I mostly just copied stuff from the main Donald Trump article, and the hard part is now writing a summary for the latter article, to replace the stuff that's now at two separate articles.Anythingyouwant (talk) 01:51, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Copying within Misplaced Pages requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. It appears that you copied or moved text from Donald Trump into Roy Cohn. While you are welcome to re-use Misplaced Pages's content, here or elsewhere, Misplaced Pages's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Misplaced Pages, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Misplaced Pages:Copying within Misplaced Pages. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:51, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, will try not to forget next time, though I wrote most of the stuff in the Trump article that was copied.Anythingyouwant (talk) 18:00, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

Re: Email controversy

Yeah, sorry if that edit summary was vague; I linked to a specific section of the talk page though. Maybe an {{update}} tag could have been better.... -- Kendrick7 21:38, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Donald Trump

Please refrain from reverting my edits without giving a viable reason for doing so. My sources have been named and everything I added was true. Your reverts do no not appear impartial. There seems to be a bias for Mr Trump from you as you have also recently edited out some bad information about him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lord NnNn (talk • contribs) 17:13, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

@Lord NnNn:, please see the section I started at the article talk page. Also, this was pure vandalism on your part, please cut it out. Thanks.Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:16, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Donald Trump, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Daily News (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Trump properties

Nothing insidious here, it's just that those two images (Trump Las Vegas and Chicago) are excessive and WP:UNDUE here. There's no pertinent discussion of significance that renders these necessary. Instead, those same two valuable slots could be take up with different (non-property) types of images. I request you to consider taking these down so that they can indeed be used for something different at those points in the article. Best, Castncoot (talk) 21:36, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Castncoot, I started a talk section at the BLP. Please discuss there, thanks.Anythingyouwant (talk) 21:39, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

The order

OK, now the order of Trumps's financial ventures. To place them in alphabetical order is nonsensical! There has to be flow according to context and meaning, rather than, of all things, the first letter of the topic! Everything was good until just a few days ago - why did everything have to be turned upside down all of a sudden? Castncoot (talk) 21:40, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Castncoot, I started a talk section at the BLP. Please discuss there, thanks.Anythingyouwant (talk) 21:42, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

1RR on Donald Trump

Just a reminder that Donald Trump (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) is subject to a 1-revert restriction. You've reverted twice in <24 hours (, ). I don't think it's a big deal in this instance, but please be aware. MastCell  22:51, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, and please be aware that I asked you never to visit this user talk page, so please remember to stay away unless admin duties require you to be here, and you are an active editor at the Donald Trump article so go away.Anythingyouwant (talk) 22:54, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you.

Minor problem at Donald Trump. Technical violation of 1RR policy. Not to worry, since you've graciously resolved the dispute yourself. It appears that you, like many other busy editors, may never have been advised that 1RR limits contributors to one revert per article, not per article section. Dervorguilla (talk) 04:31, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Correction. Two technical violations, counting the ones noted by MastCell above. Dervorguilla (talk) 04:55, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Okay, you've made your interest in pursuing technical violations clear. I've responded at the notice board.Anythingyouwant (talk) 05:00, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

No violation. Anythingyouwant's comments were helpful to my understanding of the (minor) dispute. Many thanks. --Dervorguilla (talk) 03:51, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

Nomination of List of Hillary Clinton controversies for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of Hillary Clinton controversies is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of Hillary Clinton controversies until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Wasted Time R (talk) 00:42, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Association of churches has been nominated for Did You Know

Hello, Anythingyouwant.

DYK for Association of churches

On 15 June 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Association of churches, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that under US tax law, an association of churches can have churches of different denominations and still be tax-exempt? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Association of churches. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Association of churches), 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.

Legal Affairs of Trump - more connxns to org crime

On the talk page of this article I linked to news about an incident involving one Trump collaborator... detractors for this inclusion in Misplaced Pages note that the Trump collaborator, Arif, was not convicted of crimes related to the incident, but this changes nothing about the man's being detained under incriminating circumstances which are reported plainly in the news article that I linked over to. Since when does Misplaced Pages withhold facts because they did not result in convictions in foreign court? 168.88.65.6 (talk) 17:13, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

I'm not editing that article right now, because it's not clear to me yet if Misplaced Pages will soon be scrubbing the counterpart article about Hillary Clinton controversies.Anythingyouwant (talk) 17:58, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the message User:Ihardlythinkso. I was on safari in Africa earlier this month, seeing all kinds of animals. No rats, but plenty of hyrax (which looks kind of similar).
