Category Wikipedians by number of edits What is the purpose of this supposed to be There s only one page on it From here Wikipedia crashed twice tonight I was in the middle of updating this I ll finish Thanks Myle FYI appears to be an editor who appears to have an extreme metrology viewpoint which he appears to want to push on Wikipedia I m trying to open up lines of communication but he isn t very responsive so far he just repeats basically the same general arguments For further details look at the recent edit histories of such articles as Mile Eratosthenes Ancient weights and measures etc Also see the request for mediation I filed on behalf of a user even less able to communicate with Rktect than I have been for other articles Pretty much everything Rktect touches seems to acquire a sheen of metrology I am nearly at my wits end on this If you have any advice you can offer I would be more than happy to entertain it Ken Thanks for that I hadn t seen the whole picture I think I have already been involved on one side so am reluctant to assist in the mediation There are two issues that I see multiple copies of the same article filed under different names and spellings These should be reduced to a single copy under an appropriate name progress on layout and content of the single article This will need sourcing for the accuracy of the article and an agreement to indulge in communal improvement How this comes about I don t know It may be necessary to seek some article protection from an uninvolved sysop Good luck How about instead of unilaterally reverting pages without discussion marking pages for deletion before they are finished making bogus claims of copywright infringement deleting sources and references and networking others to revert after one persons reverts are used up that you take the time to post reasons for a revert or deletion and discuss them before acting Part of what I m attempting to do is pick up red lines and turn them blue cross referencing as I go Putting some information in to start a page and then adding and editing more information as I go along So far I see the process as not helped much by having each brick removed as I place it Why suppose I type in st3 t looking for information that you have moved to say 3ht or khet because you don t understand the system in which the Egyptian standards of measure operated Why can t I have a page that puts up some information that is common to several things and unites several units as a system I have gone on to develop the pages in more detail picking up how crop rotation combines 3 st3 t of side 1 khet into 1 3ht of 300 royal cubits in an article on 3ht In another article I focus more on how a khet which is a measure of lenght and area and volume was used in the rhind papyrus to facilitate unit fraction calculations In another artcile I discuss how an itrw or river journey of 1 hour which is comparable to an hour of march of 21 000 royal cubits is a Greek schoenus of 1 10 degree and how that can be divided into 700 stadia of 300 royal cubits of 157 5 meters to give the staidia Eratosthenes calculations are based on Having multiple copies isn t going to stop people finding and redirecting all his efforts There is no need to redirect my efforts If you back off and let me work for a while you might learn something maybe not but that s on you One mediator is already involved I don t know if anybody follows the rules around here but it would seem like a good idea to cease and desist with the vandalism until you actually know what is going on Please do not use perjorative words like Vandalism unless you are prepared to substantiate these As an elected sysop I know the rules and I follow the rules I have been involved with some of your pages as a copyeditor I m sure you hold yourself to a higher standard You tell me you follow the rules I thought the rule was supposed to be to try and di
