Talk:Dane Rudhyar

message: - while your latest disruptive hobby seems to be going around to various BLP's and removing any mention of a citizenship or nationality secondary to the subject's nationality at birth, here you are clearly in the wrong.  
*The lead stated; "". 
*You changed the sentence to read; "". You left no edit summary and no source to support the change. 
*I reverted you, also making the slight change; "", and with the edit summary; "" Further, if you had bothered to read the article, you would see that he moved to the U.S. in 1916 (age 21) and became an American citizen in 1926 (age 31). He lived for 90 years, 69 of those years he lived in the U.S. and for 59 of those year he was an American citizen. 
*Instead of going to the talk page and discussing, like you were supposed to (and instead leaving me to do it), you again reverted to your previous edit; "", (with the glaring spelling error intact), only this time adding the edit summary; "". That makes no sense. I actually added "French-born" to the sentence. How does that make him appear "less French"...? And how do you justify removing any mention of "American" from that sentence? (despite the fact that not only was he American, but arguably more-so than French) 
This is yet another clear example of your disruptive editing, making messes of articles that others have to clean up, and then your combative behavior afterward, with the constant edit-warring, refusal to leave edit summaries, (unless they are some form of snarky retort), your refusal to engage on article talk pages, especially after someone reverts one of your mistakes, or even on your own talk page, where despite several editors attempting to engage you, offering assistance, all you do is delete their comments and order them to stay off your page (leaving the only means to notify you of your problem edits is by way of template notices). I will again ask that you stop this disruptive behavior and abide by the policies and guidelines of this project. - theWOLFchild 12:51, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: "" - yet another snarky, immature  comment (and a personal attack) via edit summary. So, in other words, there is no actual response forthcoming (as usual), just more rude and hostile behavior. We'll just add it to the list. - theWOLFchild 17:25, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

text: It can be useful for keeping track of Wikipedians with articles (yes, it really can ;-). That's useful for example to ensure that wikipedians with articles don't insert POV information about themselves in their articles. It's also useful for Wikipedia as a project to have a list of "famous" or otherwise notable contributors, that  can potentially be used for PR pushing etc. To avoid breaking the self-ref policy, perhaps we should move the category to the talk pages of each person instead, like we do for featured articles? — David Remahl 01:30, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: Does it say anywhere which Wikipedia name any of these is equivalent to?? (For example, if suppose one of these belongs to Seth Ilys, then it should mention somewhere that that is Seth Ilys's biography.)

replies: text: We should ideally be having a template usable in the article-talk namespace as IMSoP said earlier, probably using the template arg to either specify the Wikipedia username or say "anonymous" for those who don't want their username revealed (as I'd suppose some of them won't like their usernames revealed). -- Paddu 20:36, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Category talk:Legal ethics

message: I am hoping someone could explain to me the purpose behind this category. I have been doing some work in cleaning up the law categories as they are, for the most part, inarguably messy. Most legal topics are relatively well-defined and easy enough to sort, however this category is very foreign to me. As I understand from the description it is a "branch of ethics determining certain fields of law right or wrong" which to my interpretation means that it's a category of ethics regarding the "just-ness" law. While the area of human rights seems appropriate enough I do not see how criminal law and intellectual property are included. They are both classic areas of law that do have ethical components and issues to them, however so do all areas of law to a varying degree. Perhaps the category is best used to classify more philosophical topics rather than regular legal ones since Legal ethics is more of a ethics oriented field than a legal field. If no one can provide clairifcation I would be inclined to remove the categories of Criminal law and IP law from this one. Any thoughts? Cheers!  Dostal 22:12, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: By dividing the current energy state of the Sun by yearly energy output, the result would be the number of years this energy could have been released at this rate up until now assuming all mass started at infinity.  The expected lifetime would depend on what limit was put on the eventual radius.  If the radius is allowed to decrease by a factor of 1000 or more, your energy output could continue for a billion years or more assuming constant energy output.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.230.201.245 (talk) 08:21, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Ownership of content

message: While this page talks about ownership, do we have content somewhere about what can be done when an editor wants to disown his article, considering he is the sole contributor. WP:G7 is one way to get the article deleted, but it may be undeleted by anyone on request, hence the "disowning" is only temporary. Is there a way for an editor to request this disassociation, or to ensure that his revisions are not undeleted? Jay (talk) 08:05, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: No, although special circumstances could conceivably lead to an article being oversighted making it not possible for normal processes to undelete an article.

Talk:Standing on a Beach

message: It's fairly well known that both titles for this compilation come from the song "Killing and Arab" and that the song itself references the existentialist/absurdist novel "The Stranger" by Albert Camus. This seems to be an important bit of information for this article as the title of the compilation recalls not only the band's first single, but indicates the influence of the literary genre on their early sound and topics. I don't regularly edit Wikipedia, though, so I'm not sure what level of authority represents an appropriate 3rd party source for the information. Releaux 21:41, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

It turned out to be one John Button, a fisherman living in quiet retirement in the harbour town of Rye. His wizened, leathery mug was perfect for the cover.

This article appears to essentially be a hybrid of pages on DNA, RNA and protein (and polysaccharide) sequencing, which is of questionable value.

Talk:Ilex verticillata

message: Question was re holly article saying hollies are dioecious (period), while this article said some hollies are self pollinating. Most are dioecious. Some are self-pollinating, which is quite a sales advantage, when trying to convince a customer, who just wants to plunk a pretty plant into his garden, to buy a breeding pair of hollies, one of which will never have any berries, particularly when there is no good way to identify a male except for examining the flowers, at which point you don't want to transplant them, so the chances of getting two females which won't produce any berries is a bit too high. So there was a real motivation to find self-pollinating varities, such as Ilex aquifolium Pyramidalis, Foster holly, Burford holly, dwarf Burford holly or Nellie R. Stevens holly, list the authorities. I see one every day, a single holly bush, evergreen, usually covered in berries, but don't know the variety. Gzuckier 16:12, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: I've merged Constituency here. Three years after it was created it's part dictdef, part disambiguation, with one line about franking privilege which I copied.  I also merged constituent (politics) which was a similar mess, though it had more substance, which I included in Electoral district#Constituency work. I don't see what current benefit there is for having separate articles; it's not as though there is currently a huge mass of information.  There is scope for an article about "Constituency" in the sense of "group of voters with some commonality", but for now I've just listed interest group at constituency (disambiguation) as the closest match currently available.
