November 17
First of all, being on a Sunday I am able to monitor at least today (normally really busy due to college - working on becoming a pro met). But it is clear this will likely warrant an article. Name will be November 17, 2013 tornado outbreak correct? | 0 |
Declaration
I, User:WarthogDemon, the creator of this article, have a second-hand COI. While I have no relation or contact with the person the article is about, I am friends with someone who has a professional relationship with him. I was not asked by my friend, or the article's subject, to write this article. | 0 |
The conversation does involve me as I have had dealings with this user before. If stating the simple facts of certain users behaviour, and supporting someone who I believe was unjustly banned warrants a ban myself (not that I really am particularly about being 'banned'), then that leads me to warrant little respect for those involved with 'admin' status. | 0 |

Their outreach work, in any case, is not what we are talking here - we are talking churchmanship. Services such as choral Eucharist, choral Evensong and choral Matins are all in the old tradition dating back to the days of the Reformation: evangelicalism in this sense is denying the true presence of Christ in the Eucharist and concentrating wholly on scripture and preaching thereon: ritualism such as the Abbey displays is called High Church.Vox 8' | 0 |

Regarding the google rankings, I don't see how you can divorce the ""Cork City"" hits from the ""Cork County"" hits. Which is a very relevant distinction. On whatlinkshere, there are 1100 inlinks to city and 800 to county; pretty close. If there were no other convention, then Cork would already be a disambiguation page even without cork (material) to contend with. However, the overriding convention appears to be (Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (Ireland-related articles)#Disambiguation of locations in Ireland):
Where a town and county have the same name, the county article should be named as County Countyname, and the town should be located at County/townname (if no further disambiguation is needed). For example, Sligo and County Sligo.
It's only a talk-page suggestion, but absent anything stronger it's unexceptionable. However, throw cork (material) back into the mix and it's clear that it's not a contest between material and city; it's a contest between material, city and county. To me is a clear case where disambiguation is required, as the only reason city is preferred to county is a very obscure and largely arbiitratry Wikipedia convention. " | 0 |

Alright Whovians we need to work together
Yesterday I tried starting a new category, Celebrity Whovians. However they were constantly deleted as most of them were not properly cited or irrelevant (hey if celebrity vegeratians is relevent enough for a category then so is celebrity whovians).
So Whovians, we need to work together to make this category as big as the LGBT section, so those who contributed to the celebrity section I need to know the links (well I don't need to know those who keep deleting the section need to know) to where it states they are Whovians.

well, an autopsy would prove it. photos of otherwise healthy looking bodies would prove it to me. i cannot find them. and if the story of mass gassing is so true, why are there laws in germany and france that make it illegal to say otherwise? would you imagine an american being put in jail for saying that florida is not a state? this lable ""holocaust denier"" carries with it some almost satanistic stigma with it as if it is the same as being a murderer or a child predator. i dont deny that jews were targeted. and i dont deny that as a people they have suffered greatly. but i am finding that when you look at the official story, and then subject it to critical thinking, it simply doesnt add up. to me it is just like the official story of the assasination of JFK. there are too many unanswered questions. i majored in criminal justice and in order to prove a case, there has to be evidence. i am simply finding it hard to beleive that the germans were that cold and evil to put innocent men, women and children into gas chambers. wartime propaganda is nothing new. america has been involved in it too. look at some of the things that were said about the Iraqi army when they invaded Kuwait. taking babies out of incubators and throwing them on the floor. it was shown to have been made up. i think you have to remember that the first casualty in war is the truth. i dont think that propaganda is something that the Jews are above anymore than the Americas are.

I refuse that. I refuse redirects from this article, and especially so given the history of strong biases shown repeatedly by those proposing such redirect. This article is about the Arabic numerals and should remain so, in particular the Arabic Western Numerals; 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. The Indian Numerals article should be about the Indian numerals, Devanagari and others, १, २, ३, ४, ५, ६, ७, ८, ९, and *NOT* about the Arabic numerals. I wish to redirect all those Hindu nationalist editors on this page to the Indian numerals one because it needs serious work on what should really be its topic. I have made distinction between a numeral system (Hindu-Arabic numerals) and a specific numeral script (Arabic Western, Arabic Eastern, Devanagari, etc). There should be a page for the Hindu-Arabic numerals system that makes mention and links to the various numeral scripts within it, but this Arabic Numerals article should remain to its topic. csssclll . | 0 |
Disagree, Jayron. I'm not using Eubulides affiliations against him. I'm merely stating a fact. His edits are not good are are severely biased AGAINST chiropractic including unilaterally deciding what is an acceptable reference and how it is to be used. Just like how you've unilaterally blocked me without proper discussion especially with the points raised on MastCell's talk page. Regardless, all the points I raised above are valid and one needs only to look at the talk history to see how Eubulides and Quack Guru have seized the day and implement their agenda of fear mongering edits and having a double standard with respect to the chiropractic article. If I can make a formal complaint I'd love to do it because I had been intending to do so until Eubulides sneak attack to admin MastCell (whom I owe an apology). | 0 |

Not how the level-scaling works.
""For example, if a player clears out a dungeon at level 1, the enemies would be skeletons. If the player returns at level 4 or above, it could be full of trolls. The enemies' weapons are also leveled along with the treasure the player can find in chests and on enemies' bodies.""
For one thing, it's very rare and near impossible to find trolls at level four.Secondly, trolls would never ever replace skeletons because they are on completely different leveled lists.The only thing that would replace a skeleton is another skeleton or eventually, a lich." | 0 |

Confusing
I tagged this article as confusing due to the Structure part. It reads, ""Red Hat Enterprise Linux is largely composed of software packages distributed under free software and/or open source licenses, but is made available in a usable, binary form (such as on CD-ROM or DVD-ROM media or download) only to paying subscribers."" However it does not explain what is the meaning of paying subscribers, i.e., what do the subscribers pay for? For getting RHEL in a CD-ROM. Definitely they don't pay 100+ dollars for getting it in a CD or DVD; they pay it for the support. However, the article skips that Red Hat offers support as abruptly says, ""CentOS is freely available for download and use by the public, but is not maintained or supported by Red Hat."" instead of using something like this: ""RHEL, though licensed at GPL must be bought from Red Hat since they provide full maintenance and support for it. However, CentOS is not supported by Red Hat and is thus freely available for download and use by the public."" I will try to cleanup the article once I get the time for it. Talk " | 0 |

Source Deletion
Hi, just wanted to let you know I restored a table to the Nestle-Aland page. Not sure why you didn't notify me that you were removing it. In any case, I found this source through a Roman Catholic, and it has an imprimatur from that church. I've found other scholarly reviews for it as well, including a peer review from the Society of Biblical Literature. Although I'm sure yours was a good faith edit and a simple mistake, I'm a bit concerned that you didn't ask me about it.
I'm also concerned after glancing at your user contribs that you do a LOT of source deletion without discussing this with the other good faith editors that have taken time and research to provide. Although we do need to have sources cleaned up here, we'd actually get along faster if you slow down a bit and discuss the sources with the editors who have provided them. It's a simple courtesy, and would save us all time redoing earlier work. It's tough writing an encyclopedia, but continuously REwriting it is even harder.
Just so you'll know, I do not add sources that I do not personally own. I have a rather extensive library, and often purchase books for the purpose of responsibly editing on this site. It's a rather expensive exercise and requires more time than simply deleting sources I'm not familiar with. There have been times that I did not like a source that was listed, and bought several other sources in order to rebuild or supplement information that was insufficiently verified.
Again, this is a slower and more expensive process than simple deletion. I'd appreciate it if you do the same. If you don't mind, could you let me know if you have deleted other sources I've provided on this site? After some months away I was looking forward to adding sourced material in the field of stock technical analysis, but I'm now dreading having to go back and research any other places you may have deleted my earlier work in religious or literary subjects. I'd appreciate any help you can give me here so I can move on to other subjects with minimal time restoring any sources that have been removed.
Thanks for your help. And again, I'm sure it was a good faith mistake on your part. I'd appreciate the same spirit in return.
Best. | 0 |

Hyperactivity and Neural Development - Censorship
Two recent studies indicate problems in hyperactivity and neural development of children.
Yeah, so I add two interesting and important new, relevant references to an article which indicates potential harm to pregnant women on the Paracetamol page. These are removed because you guys don't like primary sources? This is ridiculous and frankly an extreme case of what is wrong with Wikipedia. My wife is pregnant. I for sure want to know about potential harm of this drug. I would think as a medical professional that you would be more inspired by the ""first do no harm"" idea. The fact that you Wikipedia jerks are so focused on having only sources from a narrow range of whatever it takes for a given article is so frustrating. I've continued to run into this kind of thing. You would think that academic journals have taken over Wikipedia. The idea that I have actually improved the article with my additions, and that others can improve it further, has completely escaped much of the Wikipedia culture these days. Wikipedia has simply forgotten the idea that this is collaboratively edited, rather than having a coterie of people who simply reject all edits if they do not thread the eye of the needle through the dozens of acronym style guides. You guys are disgusting, really. You are standing on the shoulders of millions of edits and now you reject the very thing that got you to where you are, namely lots of collaboratively edited small improvements. Now any change has to go through hurdles that would never have created Wikipedia in the first place. The fact that you have excluded something that is evidence of significant danger to pregnant women based on this culture of exclusiveness should trouble you deeply. " | 0 |

I prefer ""Thomas Babington Macaulay"", and strongly disagree with the current title (""..., 1st Baron Macaulay""). First of all, ""1st"" is a barbarism. Second, the repetition of ""Macaulay"" does nothing for the article title; we can find out his peerage title by reading the article itself. He may be called ""Lord Macaulay"", and in that case there should be a redirect at Lord Macaulay, but I assure you that Macaulay is never referred to these days as ""Thomas Babington Macaulay, 1st Baron Macaulay"". I've just put in a request for Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson to get the same treatment. (Cf. Walter Scott and Arthur Sullivan, where Wikipedia doesn't even mention the ""Sir"" in their titles.) But I see that Alfred, Lord Tennyson gets the same treatment, so maybe I'm too late. 15:30, 20 May" | 0 |

Edit disagreements
Where are you getting the figure range for '300-3000' from? I couldn't find these figures in any of the sources you cited, unless you're estimating based on predictions from the article.
Abu Omar al-Shishani is not the chief in command of both Iraq and Syria. This is ridiculous. I don't know why so many people believe this. I suspect it might be becuase he is so prevalent in the IS propaganda that he is somehow the Islamic State's version of Napoleon Bonaparte. I cannot find any reputable source claiming he is anything more than a field commander in northern Syria. He doesn't even feature in any IS leadership hierarchies, which are almost exclusively staffed by Iraqis who have been in the organisations since the early-mid 2000's. When the former commander of the IS Military Council passed away in June 2014 (Abu Abdulrahman al-Bilawi), Iraqi secutyi forces found some memory sticks and a laptop containing the following leadership information currently pieced together by western analysts. Note how al-Shishani doesn't feature in any of them, save one which turned out to be incorrect. Here they are: , , . Here is the false one which showed al-Shishani succeeding al-Bilawi as the IS military chief of the Military Shura: . However, it was Abu Ayman al-Iraqi, another IS Iraqi commander who had been in the organisation years before al-Shishani had joined who succeeded al-Bilawi as the Chief of the Military Shura. He is shown in the graph as Adnan Latif Hamid al-Sweidawi which is his real name. You never see the upper echelons of the IS hierarchy, the ones who actually control everything. They are not shown in IS propaganda. They are clandestine, mysterious, shadowy figures. Only the pawns are revealed.
You keep stating that Jamaat-ul-Ahrar have pledged allegiance to the Islamic State. This is just not true. You might get this impression becuase they broke away from the TTP or the Pakistani Taliban, which swear allegiance to the head of the Afghan Taliban Mullah Omar. But the spokesperson for Jamaat-ul-Ahrar stated that they pledged allegiance to the Taliban leader . The leader of Jamaat-ul-Ahrar, Omar Khalid has strong ties to Ayman al-Zawahiri and Al-Qaeda, a nemesis to the Islamic State.
You state that Abu Sayyaf have sworn allegiance to the Islamic State, however, the man who swore allegiance to them is not the groups leader, so it is unclear whether or not he is representing Abu Sayyaf or a splinter faction.
You write that Ansar al-Islam is an Al-Qaeda affiliate, but I can find little to no proof affirming this position. The leadership of Ansar al-Islam have rejected the notion that they swear allegiance to al-Qaeda, despite collaborating with their affiliates, such as the al-Nusra Front.U.S. terrorism expert Rohan Gunaratna in January 2003 however disagreed with Krekar and affirmed links of Ansar with al-Qaeda: “Ansar al-Islam has links with al-Qaeda – in fact it is an associate group of al-Qaeda”.]. The U.S Defense Intelligence Agency seemed to have affirmed this when they wrote ""Ansar al-Islam is an independent organization that receives assistance from al-Qaeda, but is not a branch of the group.""DIA, Special Analysis, July 31, 2002, cited in Postwar Findings about Iraq's WMD Programs and Links to Terrorism and How they Compare with Prewar Assessments, pg. 71." | 0 |

I'm generally an inclusionist, since wiki articles don't take much physical space, and I think this is probably worth more than most lists of pokemon characters. But to defend against deletionists, you should look for some news articles which reference this study. There are countless studies (almost all of them) which have been cited by later studies, and most of them don't get wiki articles. But if you can find some news coverage anywhere which covers this as prominent, that will satisfy them. | 0 |

Kosebamse's anti-Cubic crusade
Kosebamse, firstly, explain how my comment regarding Cubic implications of Occam's razor was ""frivolous"" and ""betrays the quality of your argumentation"".
Secondly, you demand testable predictions. I will firstly point out that most theories have values other than the capacity to predict the outcome of experiments. Had relativity been formulated only after all its implications had been verified, it would still be used widely, but for such practical uses as technology development and simulation. As such, to determine a theory's practical value, we must focus on its real-life ramifications testable hypotheses, but not necessarily predictions.
From the fundamental Cubic principles, we may broadly define manifestations of Cubic geometry evident in reality. Firstly, that everything is cyclical. In the case of large-scale phenomena, such as cyclicality of galaxy death and rebirth, and that of the universe as a whole, our observational capabilities may not suffice; but on smaller scales, cyclicality certainly is measurable.
A second observable influence is the life that has evolved on Earth, representing an interaction between chaos and Time Cube. Cubic properties are evident in lifeforms see and Pyramidal Lifeforms, and Systems and Complexities in Nature." | 0 |
Prof Baskerville,
I have removed your contribution to the IFRS article to the Discussion Page. I have explained why I did that. | 0 |
Most of the material on the page was from a rewrite I did a few month ago. I am busy so I do not have time to work on the article so I will just give a few short notes on your rewrite. To be honest I have some issues with your edits. I answered you question above and fixed your error in the introduction of the article.
There are two methods to define the topology of a LCTVS space: using a family of seminorms and using a local basis of locally convex, balanced and absorbend sets. Both methods should be present in the article on equal terms. The family of seminorms is useful to view LCTVS as generalizations of normed vector spaces. The definition in terms of a local base is useful if you are coming from the more abstract topological vector space concept.
The definition section is now too long and detailed. I think the subject is specialized enough so that we can assume the reader is familiar with the basic concepts which are now explained in detail in the definition.
The article was not perfect before but you introduced errors and made the article less readable, at least from my perspective. | 0 |
Great, thank you! | 0 |
No attack. A question about the preceding polarized pattern of voting and appended comments, using metaphor, and a suggestion to consider policy and practice. Your notion of what constitutes attack is interesting. Asking is not accusing-it is a way of more politely requesting consideration of a new perception than a statement. Original research within our debate pages is healthy. Humour can help move a frozen debate toward consensus.
Have you considered that your deletion of comments from other editors that you dislike on a page where you have previously expressed a vehement opinion on one side of a polarized debate may constitute a conflict of interest?
Are you Sheriff John Brown? Am I Bob Marley?.(another metaphor) I am glad that debate brings you merriment and keeps Qwyrxian involved. Also, why are you going around describing me as an inactive editor as you did here? []?— Talk/Stalk | 0 |
Soccer is only required to be used once per article
As per the 'consensus' on terminology, all single topic articles related to the sport of football are only required to have the word 'soccer' in the title (if necessary) and in the first paragraph (barring references to the archaic term being used for old organisations eg Soccer Australia). All further examples of the name of the sport after this first usage are to be 'football'. I have subsequently started on replacing obsolete terminology (after the single required usage in the first paragraph) where I found it in various articles. | 0 |

Include as blatantly obvious fact. The suggestion that a group ""listed as a hate group"" is estopped from criticising that listing is nicely Alice-in-Wonderland reasoning.

Laveol: Even last name Kolisev is a Macedonian one. Last names ending with ""ev"", ""ov"" are not Bulgarian. It happens that you have those in Bulgaria. But you have those last names in Macedonia, Russia, Check Republic, and so on.
Kolisev is a Macedonian last name. Same is Kolisevski. You can find both kinds with ""ov|ova"", ""ev|eva"", ""vski/vska"", ""ski/ska"" and others in Republic of Macedonia. So changing a last name from Kolisev to Kolisevski does not have any Bulgarian/AntiBulgarian implications. My last name is ""Janev"". You can find in Macedonia also ""Janevski"", ""Janeski"". All of those are Macedonian last names. The fact that you can have ""Janev"" in Bulgaria does not translate to ethnicity/origin claims in Macedonia.
Here are some last names that finish on ""ov"", ""ev"" and are not Bulgarian neither Macedonian:
[Sergei Lavrov]
[Anton Chekhov]
[Martina Navratilova]
So these last name endings are typical but not exclusive for some of the Slavic languages.
Same is with ""vski/vska"", ""ski/ska"", ""ich"" which are shared between a number of Slavic languages.
To come back to Kolisevski: Kolisevski is a Macedonian last name, as well is Kolisev. If you can find a person living in Bulgaria with one of those last names, and probably you could not, does not gives any conclusion about ethnicity or being a Pro-Bulgarian. " | 0 |

Your recent reverts on Naturopathic medicine
I see that you have recently reverted some edits to the naturopathy page. I note that you have given as your reason that the changes to the lead were POV, but that you have not bothered to explain why you think this is so in the discussion page.
Could you please explain why you think it is POV for the article to describe naturopathy as an approach to medicine rather than a single proffesion or standard of care? Do you dispute the fact, or the way in which it was written? I am open to rewriting/compromising to get consensus on an NPOV, but if you are not willing to explain yourself, this will be very difficult. Do you really think that the umberella term 'naturopathic medicine' is represenatative of single entity, group or way of practicing medicine? Could you back this up?
Could you also explain why it would be considered POV for the article to mention that the principles of naturopathy are practiced in multiple settings (complementary, alternative, and primary care) by traditional healers, NDs, MDs, DOs DC's etc...? Again, do you dispute this fact or the way it was written? I have provided citations for this, did you even consult them before deleting my work? Can you provide a citation asserting the opposite (that naturopathic medicine is an exlusive term owned and used by a single organisation to the exlusion of other types of practitioners)?
Your assertion that naturopathic medicine is 'CAM, not medicine' could be misconstrued to reveal a deep and irrational bias on your behalf. (What do you imagine the 'M' in 'CAM' stands for?) The fact that the term 'medicine' without a modifier is usually interpretted to mean conventional/regular/normal medicine does not mean that the less common practices are somehow not medicine.
I hope that you will take the time to participate in the discussion of the above on the talk page. I will continue to edit what I see as helpful NPOV information about the complex breadth and scope of naturopathy untill you can explain what it is that you do not like about the contributions I have made. On the one hand I can't work in a vaccuum, but on the other hand I won't be bullied into submission either.
One more thought: your vague references to various WPs could be viewed as a form of wikilawyering: I hope that you will consider explaining the violations that you percieve rather than continuing to set up an all out edit war. | 0 |

They always will be, a history of conquest and assimilation, hard won independence and also strong opposition from people who want Britain to be Britain (not Welsh, or Scottish etc.). My grandmother (yes that close) was thrashed for speaking welsh in the playground of her school (an experienced mirrored in First Nation people in your country) and a culture was almost wiped out at the time. Those things are within living memory so advocates of ""we are all British really"" will get a strong response. Same on the Irish pages where memories of cultural assimilation are also strong (and of Cromwell for that matter. I remember being on civil rights marches in Belfast in the 60s as catholics did not have a vote, something a lot of people forget or don't know (and still have the scars of B-special brutality from that). I could go on, but its not an academic issue for many editors, it is their lived reality and history. TALK " | 0 |

Thanks for clearing up that indefed contributor Lindashiers is pursuing her text copyright infringement against Google (not WMF). It's her ""sexual harassment"" complaint against ""Sitush"" which is pending with WMF. Google's reply to the 23-Aug-2014 DMC complaint, viewable online, declined those takedowns because the IAC had approached Google directly. That evidentally caused Lindashiers and the ""agent"" from ""Name Defend India"" to land up at WP copyright on 3 Sept.2014, and fire their 2nd DMCA barrel after Voceditenore rejected it. Anyway this is all very interesting, but is the Sarbajit Roy article to come here or go somewhere else ? " | 0 |

OK. A talk page...
Rick Perry edit:
Just wondering why you tagged my edit to the death penalty as ""original research"" - All the citations were from the websites of the Texas Constitution, the Board of Pardons and Parole or the Texas Administrative Code?
Which is exactly what makes it original research. I understand your point, but you really need a secondary source relating the law and constitutional provisions to Perry. Perfect would be an analysis piece, or even a ""blog"" in a reputable newspaper, saying something like ""Even if Perry wants to commute X's death sentence, he is prohibited from acting unless the Board of Pardons recommends he does so."" With a legitimate crack in the door like that, you might be able to bring in your primary sources as additional validation and explanation, but the ""mitigation"" needs to originate outside Wikipedia.
Garbo VIII
Can't you delete these sections and start a new one? It takes 20 minutes just to scroll down to the end! Meanwhile, I'm really enjoying our conversation and hope it continues. take care,
Done. (Some recent replies posted simultaneously in old section though).
I see that you've changed Acosta back to de Acosta, which is fine since that's how she's identified in the Wikipedia entry. Vieira refers to her as Acosta. Other biographers refer only to Mercedes. Anyway, many surnames in the romance languages derived from placeslocations, like towns or territories. So it's like referring to her as ""of the seashore"" instead of just ""Seashore."" Anyway, I suppose both will do so I'm untroubled by your reversion. Don't really care.
The Acosta page needs to be updated based on a new biography of her by Bob Shanke, interestingly, a theatre historian. There there is also at least one major error in Wikipedia. The author says, ""The two [Garbo and de Acosta] were introduced to one another by de Acosta's lover at the time, author Salka Viertel."" This assertion is simply false. Accd to the authors of the 3 biographies I read of G, Acosta didn't even know Viertel before she met G. G asked Viertel to introduce them and Viertel called Acosta up out of the blue. Oh well, at this point it's someone else's problem to correct. Well, maybe I'll correct this one thing since I'm at it here. I'm not interested in reading a bio of Acostaat least for the time being. I learned enough about her from the G bios. I'm trying to find time to rewrite the section agbout G's affairs but I have to read about them all over again for accuracy. Happy to see your anal self back at work! I know you're always there to review my revisions!
Just made some changes and corrections to the Acosta page but it was stupid since the page is absolutely terrible. Hopeless. No citations, terribly written, completely untrustworthy. Author of new bio demystifies what he considers to be unfair characterizations of her (as basically an obnoxious irritant in G's life). She's not an insignificant figure in Hollywood and gay circles and deserves a better article. greetings,
Yeah, I knew the de Acosta thing was questionable, which is why the unusually detailed (for me) edit summary. I first checked her article here, but didn't rely on it too much (probably would have stopped there for consistency if it had used just the ""Acosta"" form though). Then various discussions on the MoS pages about da, de, di, Mc, Mac, van, and von ... the substance of which was ""it varies"", so that's when I hit the NYT. Mostly the issue got fudged by referring to her throughout articles as ""Mercedse de Acosta"", but two articles about her and one about a daughter (niece?) getting married used ""de Acosta"" alone. Then the coup de grâce was when I decided to look at the Spanish Wikipedia. where I figured they should be able to handle Spanish name | 0 |

"I've studied neurology basics, and it is difficult for me to decide which one, perhaps it is micture of both, un and sub consciousness.
Let me point to the typical as I think mode of tailgaters (I only guess because I am not one) so called ""autopilot"" when one switch off and focus only on the stop light of the car in front. This can be observed in cases when locked on to the tailgating mode, all other lanes are free to move and drive faster even within limit and surely free of obstacle of slower cars in front, but those drivers on autopilot persist and do not notice of the opportunity to change lane. Often they do tailgate for a long distance without changing lane which is free for some time and only when you decide to do so or come from behind, they come suddenly in front of you. This is partially subconscious. Our peripheral vision is sensitive to movement, their brain register this, they immediately notice that the object they notices (you) moves on or into free lane, they make immediately reactive rather than fully conscious and rational decision and they move dangerously in front of you. I believe that if they drove not on autopilot, they would long before you decided and changed lane.
I believe that such sub/un counscious behavior is a result of poor driver training. Proper training enable much better and counsious decisions and faster.

Re: Patron Saints of Places
I noticed on the Talk page two separate comments, going back a few years, that the page would be more user-friendly if the listing was according to Place. Accordingly I've been trying to re-sort the entries towards that end. I've been making the changes in what I hope are manageable bits, partly because it's very time-consuming and I don't want to lose anything(particularly the citations), and partly because I've been waiting for someone to object. (I take it from your welcomed feedback that I may proceed.)
As far as the other patron articles: In general, since an article on any individual saint would indicate their various areas of patronage, geographic and otherwise, I think the over-all listings would be better grouped by topic. However, those pages seem somewhat less pressing, because at least they are separated alphabetically, (whereas, I found the Places page a bit confusing ... particularly because a number of the historical ""places"" are now known as something else). -I am going to see if I can find some images as well (unless there is a rule against images and lists).
-On another note, I was looking for a clean-up listing for the Saints portal, but the one I found dates back to 3/12/10. Is there a more current one somewhere? -(I noticed your comment on the WT:X talk page, and I would be interested in helping out a bit on Advent/Christmas content, if you like.) - appreciate the input.

A philosophical story to embrace ones mind.
The ancient Indian mathematicians were the first to discover the digit zero ""0"" and implement it in the formation of digits. The whole world revolves like a cycle in the form of the digit zero. The Britishers dicovered an ancient egg of Dinosaures in India. What I mean to convey is that: India is the land where Lord Rama or Lord Krishna were born. Lord Rama was an example of a perfect ideal man on earth. His life story is an example for an ideal man to follow. Lord Rama, Lord Lakshmana, Lord Bharata and Lord Shatrughana were four sons of King Dhasratha of Ayodhya. He was cursed to die from the pain of separation from his son by the blind parents of Shrawan Kumar. Kaikeyi the mother of Bharata wishes to send Lord Rama on an exile for a period of 14 years and wishes her son Bharata to be the King of Ayodhya. Lord Rama and his wife Sita and his brother Lord Lakshmana leave for forests outside the kingdom of Ayodhya. Lord Rama's brother Lord Bharata persuades lord Rama to return back but lord Rama refuses to return to Ayodhya against the wishes of his step mother Kaikeyi. But Lord Bharata returns to Ayodhya along with the sandals of lord Rama and places the sandals of his brother Lord Rama on the throne and rules the kingdom of Ayodhaya in the name of Rama. This shows the example of love between an elder brother and his younger brother. In the forest once a demon shurpanaka sister of King Ravana disuades Lord Rama to marry her, but Lord Rama tells her that he is already married and points towards his brother Lord Lakshmana who cuts off her nose and ears to show her ugly nature and character. Shurphanaka runs off and complains about Lord Rama and Lord Lakshamana to King Ravana of Lanka. King Ravana somehow manages to kidnap Goddess Sita the wife of Lord Rama in revenge to Lanka. Lord Rama grieves for his separation from his beloved wife Goddess Sita. Here the feelings of an ideal person in the form of lord grieving from separation from his beloved wife are beautifully described by Sage Valmiki who wrote the whole Ramayana. Sage Valmiki was a thief named Ratnakar who by the japam of Lord Sri Rama became a great sage named Valmiki and wrote a great epic called Ramanaya the story of King Rama and Sita. Lord Rama and Lord Lakshamana move towards southern India where they meet the lord Hanuman, (the great son of Anjani and Kesari; Lord Hanumanji is also known as Pavanputra or the great celibate bachelor) and Lord Sugriva and with the help of vanara sena or Army of Monkeys they move into the kingdom of Lanka and kill the demon king Ravana. Lord Rama rescues Goddesses Sita and with the help of Lord Hanuman they return back to Ayodhya. A fourteen years had lapsed when lord Rama had left the kingdom of Ayodhya. When lord Rama, Goddesses Sita, Lord Lakshmana and lord Hanuman return to Ayodhya, the people of Ayodhya cheer up and lit up the whole Ayodhya with Diyas in order to celebrate the victory and return of their king Lord Rama. The festival Dusherra is celebrated every year as a victory of good over evil as the demon Meghanad {the son of King Ravana},the demon Kumbhakarna {the brother of king Ravana} and the demon King Ravana of Lanka were killed by Lord Rama and Lord Lakshmana in order to rescue Goddesses Sita from her captivity in Lanka. And on the occassion of their return to Ayodhya the festival Diwali is celebrated throughout India every year with great pomp and show of lights and crackers. Whenever some troubled minds read this story of Ramayana their minds gain peace and the self confidence is restored as their spirits become calm, pacified and brave in the troubled periods of time. The Epic Ramayana denotes the greatness of Supreme God Lord Rama as an ideal human being on earth. " | 0 |

Dan, we are on equal footing here. What I was referring to is the practice of starting out an article with a short abstract, often three paragraphs long, summarizing the substance of the article. In the body of the article there are examples of those various forms that relations between men and youths can take, satisfying the requirements of the form. I agree, by the way, with your edit of the ""prehistory"" statement. I was basing it on historians' suppositions that Greek practices may have had a prehistoric precedent, but since that discussion is a bit tenuous it may best be left to the article on Greek pederasty.

A serious question
You obviously enjoy being as nasty as you possibly can be in ""acceptable"" ways that don't threaten to get you blocked. My question is don't you ever get tired of being dead wrong about so many things, so often, in such a needlessly nasty manner, and so publicly in front of your fellow editors? Vandals suck. Eight year olds with access to the internet suck too. But it's people like you who maintain a facade of respectability while being absolutely horrible to other people who are really the worst members of the Wikipedia community. - —Preceding comment was added at

Suggestive fact
I just encountered these two words used together and went on a search to find what they mean when used together like this (assuming that the sum is greater than the parts). I found many incidences of the two words being used together but no definition of them. One snippet in the search results said something like 'one suggestive fact is better than a few bushels of theory' which seems to be suggestive of the definition....
I am just wondering if the definition of suggestive fact could belong here and if there is a philosopher who could tackle its meaning? | 0 |
