Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/The Random Editor

message: *Note to users: I don't mean to nag, but when a user raises a good-faith concern, I don't think  other editors should come to the defense of candidate until he/she addresses the concern. The spirit of the RFA process is for the candidate to answer all questions and concerns personally, either by presenting evidence to contradict such concerns or prove their correction, or by promising to answer them in the future. Other users can assist in the discussion, but they shouldn't substitute the candidate's responses. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 00:56, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's really an impossible situation.  Candidates who respond to the opposes often receive additional oppose votes with comments like "unhappy with tone in badgering of oppose voters."  Candidates who don't respond will often get "unhappy with unresponsiveness."  There's an expectation from many RFA participants that candidates be psychic.  Unfortunately, since these sorts of comment are allowed to stand, anybody who is familiar with RFA is going to be a little reluctant to respond to opposes for fear of garnering even more opposes.  We saw this most recently with Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/WikipedianProlific -- an RFA that narrowly failed.  Some of the oppose votes (the difference between success and failure, in this case) opposed primarily for the "tone of his responses."  A total red-herring.  There's a big difference between defending yourself and "being defensive" but since there's a lot of participants at RFA who will oppose for this, any candidate would actually have to be a little bit stupid not to let his friends respond first. --JayHenry 18:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Tibia Micro Edition

message: I believe Dwango's Samurai Romanesque was the first mobile MMORPG back in 2000 on NTTDoCoMo's network - it could accommodate several thousand players at once. There used to be some reviews around for it but they seem to have disappeared,  however there is an IEEE journal article about it from 2003 at least here: http://www.wirelessgamingreview.com/reviews/samurai021402.php 
If nobody has any other claims on this, I'll change it.

thread_title:  Formwork in residential house construction 

message: Hello!  
I have a few suggestions with this article. 
First, formworks are not only used for casting, but also for spraying, spinning, and slip formwing. 
Second, the current "types" are not a propper classification of formworks, but rather an ennummeration of some more popular, but rather random specific types of formwork. 
I suggest a simple classification based on one criterion:
* disposable formworks
* re-usable formworks
* stay-in-place formworks:
** lost formworks
** functional formworks
Additionally, there can be a section on "Examples of formwork systems", where the current formwork "types" can be listed, and others added. 
Any thoughts on this? Otherwise I am happy to do the changes. Stratocaster47 (talk) 15:49, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Supply & Demand Chain Executive

message: I think this is not so bad- I'm toning down the overt ad-speak, though.
Well, I tried to tone down the ad speak, and got reverted. This is a professional magazine. It is quite possibly notable. spam is however not acceptable. The description given contains excessive spam--a discussion of how important the journal in laudatory terms and who ought to read it and the details or the various routine sections it covers  is straight-forward advertising, otherwise known as spam. spam will be removed. See WP:SPAM, WP:COI, and WP:Business FAQ.  
Insertion of this sort of material, especially in an article written by an editor whose name is the same as the editor of the magazine, is not tolerated at WP.  
"Supply & Demand Chain Executive is a business technology magazine for supply chain executives at manufacturing and non-manufacturing companies and organizations, as well as public sector agencies, covering solutions and services for improving supply chain operations and efficiencies" this repeats the same thing 3 times. The same phrase is also repeated in the following partagraph, the one after that, and the one after that. Fluff. And what else is a possible audience but executives and manufacturing and non-manufacturing companies and organizations? DGG (talk) 07:59, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Factual errors 

message: Surprised a heading like this doesn't exist.
After Jones defeated Machida, there is a recording of Jackson telling Jones to check on Machida in order to earn fans (stated explicitly for that purpose).
During several fights on the Bellator reality show, Jackson is constantly feeding the Judges perspective (you are beating him from the bottom [a ridiculous notion], etc) rather than coaching his fighter.
Jackson is typically blamed for fighters turning boring, and going for point scoring and earning decisions, which was the tendency with his most notable fighters, St. Pierre, and more recently, Jon Jones.
There's lot of other examples, but you could easily source material that backs the idea of him being the most controversial corner man and coach in the sport.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.205.235.66 (talk) 22:36, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

message: Given that, in every sense, Frank Maher  was a far better footballer than he was a coach -- and, even, perhaps he was an even greater war hero than he was a footballer -- it seems that the article's title Frank Maher (coach) is inappropriate.
Also, if this is to be a Wiki article, rather than a Carlton-oriented Blueseum article, it seems that his football career very clearly outranks his time coaching at Carlton.

Legal010 also introduced the wording "off" into this page. Has anyone any idea what it means? -- PBS (talk) 10:08, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The word "off" is just an abbreviation of "officers". The lack of sources is indeed troubling. I have therefore added De Bas and Wommersom, Vol. III  to the References, with a link to this Google e-book, so people can check online. I have checked the tables for the Dutch troops, both complement and losses with the tables in this source and provided references for those. The British troops are also in De Bas and Wommersom, and the losses are in a different table from the complements, so I leave it to others to check and correct if necessary. Finally, the big mystery of the commander of the 28th regiment Oranje-Nassau in the 2nd brigade of the 2nd Dutch division was no mystery at all. Saxe-Weimar was its colonel, but he had to assume temporary command of the entire brigade on the days of the two battles as his superior, col. F.W. von Goedecke fell ill. I have added a note and reference to that effect. I have also added quarter-master-general De Constant-Rebecque and chief-of-staff of the 2nd Dutch division Van Zuylen to the tables because of their important role in the battle(s).--Giant'sConscience (talk) 22:43, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Nanotube membrane

message: Danski14, regarding your Sept. 7th edits; I kept the stylistic changes, but if you didn't like the fact that I was quoting from another Wikipedia article you can't just rewrite the quote and remove the citation!!  When you press "Save Page" you're certifying that what you've written is your own, original work.  It's plagiarism to copy text from elsewhere and simply rewrite it without citation; it doesn't matter whether WP holds a license for it.
WP:SELF is about including content in an article that is somehow mentioning Wikipedia as a topic.  And even then, it doesn't say such content should necessarily be removed.  But as a compromise, I simply removed the content from the other article and changed the "See Also" link to point to it directly. 
Also, I do think it would be best if the article had its own material there, I was including the quote simply to bulk up.
