Talk:Balvino Gálvez

message: Balvino Galvez had the #5 spot in the Pirates' rotation pretty much locked down in 2001, when he made an error toward the end of spring training. He got into a shouting match with the pitching coach, threw down his glove, stormed out of the stadium, and was on a plane back to the Dominican Republic within hours, never to appear again in organized baseball. 
-- One of the wackiest: Pirates reliever Balvino Galvez, who turned 37 yesterday and hadn't been in the majors since 1986, muffed a throw in a rundown drill, picked up the ball, threw it into the stands, stormed into the clubhouse, packed his things and bolted, without talking with the team or media. The release papers were drawn up immediately.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.94.175.64 (talk) 01:24, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

There is some latitude for the barely notable, see WP:OTRS.

Talk:Bob Flowerdew

message: Data on Family Members (of living persons, not historical ones)
I don't know... I always feel sort of uncomfortable to see Wikipedia articles on contemporary people, in which (for no good reason, as I see it), data on their relatives is revealed. I think we should be much more restrictive in that point, no matter if we find some particular piece of information potentially "too much" or not, but simply out of principle.
I don't even see why we need to know that someone like Bob Flowerdew (and he serves me only as an example) is married, or why it should matter to us wether he has any children or not.
But I particularly don't see why their names have to be posted all over the www. Why can't the article say: "where he lives with his wife and their twins" instead of "where he lives with his wife, Vonetta, a care worker, and their twins, Italia and Malachi."
I personally would object to having my name posted all over the www, just because my father happens to be a minor celebrity.
I don't know how old Bob's children are; but as I said, he only serves me as an example - and I think that particularly in cases where the children are too young to ask themselves the question whether they would object, and too young to take a decision on that matter, and too young to do anything about it themselves, it would seem appropriate not to publish any unnecessary information, on principle.
((This, for me, is the equivalent of tabloids printing photographs of the children of VIPs, which I think should be made illegal entirely.))
I was wondering whether Wikipedia had any policy on that matter? Otto von B. (talk) 15:38, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

message: I removed this .... denying the laws of physics and then using them to underpin an opinion is unusual.
"He therefore takes exception to all recent editions of the DSM (the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) starting with DSM-III published in 1980, which explicitly rules out stress as a causative factor.   With the WHO reporting that suicide now kills more of us globally than heart disease and cancer combined, he advocates a wider perspective – including modernising the Laws of Physics.  All non-living systems decay, their disorganisation (entropy) inexorably increases.  He argues that since living skin heals itself, where dead skin doesn't – the chemicals are the same, the physics isn’t – thus if skin can heal, so can minds."

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/SUI Simple Unique IDs

message: In replying to comment - yes I did not the attribution off the page, and in response to this debate. The reason the attribution was there (the page is under-construction), was that I originated the idea in public discussions sometime ago (reffered then as WUID World Unique IDs) and Microsoft used the same technique and name in a number of its product - it was put there to establish prior invention (re the technique, documented by my name in various forums and correspondence). But I understand your concern with deletion, it should have said from the beginging "created by..., original proposal made by...," in drafting overly simplified it as "created by... and ...".
On "You've come to Wikipedia for the wrong reasons." I think you are right. I did indend to give full instruction, and have the wiki perform, as an editable host, as a complete reference to development, real world applications and third party software. I was wrong to do this.
I may disagree on the details re "notability" etc.,. but the above is a substantial and true criticism (misuse through misapphrension). On those grounds I agree it should be deleted. Perhaps, later I might write a smaller description, after sometime has passed and it has established itself (or not)?
I would like to contribute a future artcile on the "ebpub" e-book standard. I hope I have not overly damaged my reputation in this regard.
I appreciate your quality control, and the time taken to consider my article, I also now better appreciate the extent of policy and its solidity - many thanks.
What I was trying to do with the article was not compatible to Wikipedia's purpose, that is conceded without argument. That point is well made and substantial. I am happy to have it deleted under these circumstances.

Talk:Department of Defence (Ireland)

message: A new editor, , recently added material here in a new section on the Department's relationship with the defence forces.  These were subsequently deleted and reinstated and ultimately deleted by me. GreatRedFox subsequently posted on my talk page (relevant portions copied here to keep the discussion central):
So, just to be clear, I deleted the material as there were no proper citations for the material, and everything added, especially anything controversial, needs to be verifiable to a reliably source. So what's a reliable source?  Certainly the Irish Examiner and Irish Times articles would count, but we don't have them. I've not gone through all the edits, but it looks like the only references included were .  Unfortunately, pointing to a particular edition of a newspaper isn't enough; we would also need, at minimum, the actual article title, and ideally the URL (web address) of the actual online editions of the articles.  That would then allow us to fully cite the article, including adding the author(s), and readers could click through to read the actual articles.  GreatRedFox, if you still have those articles, you should be able to google for the online versions. There are a couple of other issues: I think you would need to explain what, exactly, the Defence Forces Review is; I had assumed it was a magazine like Cosainteoir, but it appears to be an annual academic journal?  The inclusion of "issued by the Military Authorities" implies that what follows is the view of those Authorities; it isn't. There is a disclaimer right under the "published by" section, that states   So if you can source the Examiner and Irish Times articles, and alter the text somewhat, I don't see why it couldn't be included.
