Cameo Records

Cameo Records was an American record label that flourished in the 1920s. It was owned by the Cameo Record Corporation in New York City.

Cameo released a disc by Lucille Hegamin every two months from 1921 to 1926. Cameo records are also noted for dance music. The catalogue also included the Original Memphis Five and the Varsity Eight. Musicians such as Red Nichols, Miff Mole, Adrian Rollini, and Frank Signorelli made trips to the Cameo studios. In 1926, Cameo started recording using a microphone-electrical process. An interesting blues number is 583, "Crazy Blues", by Salt & Pepper.

The Cameo Record Corporation started Lincoln Records (1924) and Romeo Records (1926). In 1928 it merged with Pathé Records, and then the American Record Corporation. The resulting company stopped using the Cameo name in the 1930s.

This label is not affiliated with Cameo-Parkway Records which was active in the 1950s and 1960s.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Prometheus. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Prometheus~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Flux & Potential
In the lowly task of cleaning up after my disamb of Battery, i found myself puzzling over the red links in Potential difference & Flux, re thru and across variables, but eventually got around to puzzling over this satisfying but for me obscure generalization of what, would you say field theory? Fine intellectual calisthenics for me, and glad to have found them.

But i'm concerned that elecrical PD is what almost everyone comes to Potential difference in order to understand, and it may be a terrible hurdle for the high-school seniors and non-major undergrads who come to the page to brush up on that. I was delighted to find reasonably recent edits on your Contributions, bcz i doubt i could do a very good job of what i am thinking; i hope you'll find the suggestion at least worth mulling.

It seems clear to me that Potential difference was incomplete w/o the initial paragraph and list you edited in. But most readers will not realize they can skip it for their purposes. (It strikes me as a situation similar to those solved w/ a page where a long article on Foo begins with a link to Foo (disambiguation), a short page that may lead only to stubs and red links. I don't mean that Potential difference (disambiguation) would serve for a place for the material you added, but i've no confidence in the titles i'd suggest, like Potential difference (generalization).)  What i'm picturing is
 * This article concerns electrical potential difference, the most common sense of potential difference.
 * Strictly speaking, potential difference is a much broader concept discussed at Potential difference (whatever).

Would this make any sense in your view? --Jerzy 22:42, 2003 Dec 4 (UTC)

Through/Across Resistor?
You wrote at a section of my talk that
 * The through variable does not change over the lumped parameter (e.g. resistor). Current on one side of a resistor is equal to current on the other side. The voltage, on the other hand, differs. So the voltage differs ACROSS the resistor.

Arriving here to leave you a confused note, i found myself rereading above what i wrote you in Dec. (which already is unfamiliar to me!). Now it sounds like you are motivating for me the through/across concepts (and not pointing out something stupid i said elsewhere). What would i do next with this useful-feeling clarification? While i finally came up with the word "flux" (and was then able to stop obsessing about how much i've forgotten abt divergence and curl), am i going astray by trying to generalize at this point beyond lumped parameters to spatially varying ones? E.g., trying to think abt, maybe, a volume bounded by And the corresponding condition of no change in net charge inside it?
 * two different equipotential surfaces and
 * a surface everywhere parallel to the thru-variable, in our case charge-flux (= vector current density?).

Would i be better off just at some point rereading your article 'graph with these motivating ideas in mind? Should i drag out Maxwell's equations, undertaking the "exercise left for the student" of IDing the magnetic thru and across variables without peeking at the article (and [shudder] without trying to identify the lumped parameters)?

Thanks for your attention. (And i'd also welcome any thots on the questions i did ask originally, if you choose.) --Jerzy 19:44, 2004 Feb 3 (UTC)

Darth Jar Jar
Jar Jar or commonly known as JS in certain circles I just removed some websites about that. I then googled it and saw lots of media coverage. Should it get a mention here or at the sith article? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:25, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
 * As WP:FRINGE, I vote "no". --IJBall (contribs • talk) 07:26, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
 * The Darth Jar-Jar theory is at least somewhat notable to the Sith article, though. Maybe a simple mention in the "In popular culture" section might work? Nothing major, but a passing mention of the theory would be appropriate coverage; after all, the theory explicitly states that Jar-Jar, if the theory is correct, would be a Sith Lord (or at least Force-sensitive). So some coverage would be appropriate on the Sith article, an entire section would not be. Raptormimus456 (talk) 14:21, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I removed the Darth Jar Jar information from the intro paragraph. It's essentially fan fiction, certainly not worth going in the intro.
 * Firstly, you should sign your posts. Secondly, there's a difference between covering random fan fiction and covering fan fiction that has recieved notable amounts of coverage. We have an entire damn article about the fanfiction trope of the Mary Sue, so I don't see how fan fiction, especially one that has become widely adknowledged by a number of sources like this should be left out of the intro to the article it's related to. And thirdly, this isn't "fan-fiction", either; it's a fan theory. Fanfiction and fan theories are two distinct forms of fan media.

 * Besides that, vandals are going to keep adding it to this article's intro regardless if you think it's not notable for the intro paragraph (which it is, considering people like J.J Abrams himself have made mention of it). May as well do it ourselves and save us from the constant reverting hassle. Raptormimus456 (talk) 14:03, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
 * It seems like a violation of WP:FRINGE. It getting coverage pop media coverage doesn't make it not fringe. JJ Abrams mentioning it doesn't make it not fringe either. Maybe you can put it somewhere, but putting it in the lead seems like giving a fringe theory undo attention. According to WP:LEAD, material in the lead should reflect its underlying importance to the topic. A trivial piece of fan fiction is not of any comparable importance to the other material in the introduction (where he appears, and the associated controversy behind him). By noting the fan fiction in the lead you are implicitly saying it is one of the most important things about Jar Jar Binks.

 * I'm not sure what point you are trying to make by bringing up the Mary Sue article. I'm not suggetsing that topics like fanfiction itself, or its tropes, are not notable enough for Wikipedia. Just that this particular theory about Jar Jar Binks, and the flash-in-the-pan media coverage it had, is not notable enough for the lead. Theodds (talk) 23:41, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
 * To be considered "flash-in-the-pan" means that the theory would have just been a small fad that wouldn't gain all that much attention in the long run, which obviously has not happened. And yes, it is one of the most important aspects of Jar Jar Binks, because it's one of the most prominent uses of the character since the CG Clone Wars show used him. It's not fringe if it's considered notable. And WP:FRINGE even states this (emphasis mine):

"The neutral point of view policy requires that all majority and significant-minority positions be included in an article. However, it also requires that they not be givenundue weight. A conjecture that has not received critical review from the scientific community or that has been rejected may be included in an article about a scientific subject only if other high-quality reliable sources discuss it as an alternative position. Ideas supported only by a tiny minority may be explained in articles devoted to those ideas if they are notable."

 * WP:LEAD says this:

"The emphasis given to material in the lead should roughly reflect its importance to the topic, according to reliable, published sources. Apart from basic facts, significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article. As a general rule of thumb, a lead section should contain no more than four well-composed paragraphs and be carefully sourced as appropriate."

 * Mentioning the Reddit theory, something that has recently gained a lot of steam and is generally quite notable, into the last portion of the lead in a completely neutral stance with a small paragraph (just reporting that it exists, essentially) is not violating WP:LEAD or WP:FRINGE, and in fact is in line with those very policies. Raptormimus456 (talk) 15:13, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

 * It is violating WP:Lead; the lead is meant to summarize the article. Like you noted, WP:Lead states, "Significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article." The topic and amount of text in question makes it significant in detail. And if it's a "quite notable" theory, it is significant detail. I first reverted you because you'd added a Reddit thread as a source, which is a WP:Reliable sources violation. Leontes later reverted you, seemingly because the addition is a lead violation. I reverted you the second time because it's not lead material. It's also a WP:Due weight violation by being placed in the lead. As seen here, I moved the material to the Conception section because it fits there best. It does not need its own section, which would be a WP:Due weight violation. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 23:25, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
 * "Neutrality requires that each article or other page in the mainspace fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint in the published, reliable sources. Giving due weight and avoiding giving undue weight mean that articles should not give minority views or aspects as much of or as detailed a description as more widely held views or widely supported aspects. Generally, the views of tiny minorities should not be included at all, except perhaps in a "see also" to an article about those specific views. For example, the article on the Earth does not directly mention modern support for the Flat Earth concept, the view of a distinct minority; to do so would give undue weight to it." - Straight from the WP:NPOV page.

Note this line; "Neutrality requires that each article or other page in the mainspace fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint in the published, reliable sources."

To be considered a violation of WP:NPOV, the information would need to be considered a tiny minority; something that the theory no longer is, considering how much it's blown up over the internet. It's like removing the EU stuff of Boba Fett escaping the Sarlacc Pit from his article just because it's a tiny minority of the Star Wars mythos that isn't canon anymore. I'd say having some coverage of the Sith Jar-Jar theory in the lead is fine enough as it is. Raptormimus456 (talk) 18:44, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Raptormimus456, I really don't know what more to state to you on this, except that I am right. WP:Newbies or otherwise inexperienced Wikipedia editors often think they know better than the more experienced Wikipedia editors, but, in cases like these, they are wrong. The WP:Neutrality policy you quoted concerns any minority viewpoint, not just tiny minorities. When it comes to this Darth Jar Jar theory, it is a minority viewpoint that does not need much weight in the article. The vast majority of literature on Jar Jar Binks does not concern this theory. If you really want to test if you are correct on your views, start a WP:RfC on the matter. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 21:37, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

 * I'm slightly late here, but I also strongly agree that the theory has been given too much weight and should not be in the lead. However, I do believe the article should mention the theory due to how much coverage it received.
 * I think the justification provided above for the lead containing the theory is flawed:
 * The 'Mary Sue' article is not a useful comparison. The term 'Mary Sue' has entered the public lexicon, and I would guess that most people who use the term 'Mary Sue' don't realize it's origin. Importantly, Mary Sue does not mention the fan fiction at all in it's lead, the article is about the concept in all media - not the fan theory. Calling it a 'article about the fan-fiction trope of the Mary Sue' is not a fair representation.
 * Vandalism is not a justification for adding content to Wikipedia. The solution to vandals adding content is to lock the article, not add the content.
 * I believe a fan theory does not count as a 'prominent use' of the character, as it is a reinterpretation of an existing use of the character
 * Reading the discussion above, it seems like a good idea to start a RfC, i may do that soon if no one else has.Cdpas (talk) 13:01, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

The lead mentions that the theory is 'backed by the character's actor' - this is a misleading statement and should be removed. Ahmed Best (actor behind the character of Jar Jar) has talked about how he used 'drunken-style shaolin kung-fu' inspired by Jackie Chan, which is mentioned in the theory as evidence of Jar Jar being a sith lord. As far as I know, this is the extent of his public validation of the theory, other than ambiguous tweets. In reference to Jar Jar being a sith lord, Best states "I can't say yes or no. ... you gotta ask George". You can see this for yourself here. Cdpas (talk) 13:01, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 4 November 2022
At the very end of the article, please expand the quote from "as to why it's obviously true" to "as to why it's obviously true why he's [evil]". This is the complete quotation as given by citation #44, which is already there. Because the current quotation lacks its conclusion, it sounds like Abrams considers the essay's length a reason for believing the essay's argumentation, but if you include the end of the quotation, you'll see that he's simply describing the argumentation. 175.39.61.121 (talk) 19:10, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

Robot Chicken Edits
I want to lead off with the fact that I want to act like an adult and follow Wikipedia guidelines. I understand that my edits may lack notability, as they describe content that isn't listed in the summary for the Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode III article, and are mainly based off of this wiki article, this other wiki article, and this YouTube video, none of which are reliable. My edits are also not cited with verifiable sources, as I could find no reliable sources talking about Robot Chicken Episode III's Darth Jar Jar segment, although IGN did review it. I will be the first to admit that I do not own a copy of RCSWEIII, and therefore cannot confirm or deny, in the realm of original research at least, really any of the information that I put in the article. However, I do have a couple things on my side! First of all, all editors must assume that what I am doing is in good faith, which protects me somewhat from editors from reverting my edits. Second of all, I am partially covered by WP:JUSTDOIT and WP:IGNORE. That brings me to my motivations for making these edits. They are a combination of compulsion (I was reading the Jar Jar Binks article and was alarmed by the ommission of the Darth Jar Jar sketch), core mission (I want people to not be mislead that the Reddit user was the first person to come up with Darth Jar Jar), and responsibility/altruism (because I want to do my part). I hope that my edits can be respected and kept on the page. However, if they aren't notable or verifiable enough, someone can revert the page back to its previous version. I think that this is an interesting implmentation of the policy "Verifiablity Not Truth". It is the truth that Robot Chicken published a sketch in 2010 that included Darth Jar Jar, and was even voiced by Ahmed Best, so this is as close of an official publication of the Darth Jar Jar theory as you could get and this was five years before the Reddit thread. The Reddit guy no way broke the news on Darth Jar Jar, it had been used by Robot Chicken literally five years earlier. HOWEVER, it is not VERIFIABLE that this happened because no reliable source tells us what happened in the DVD and it would be original research to watch the DVD and claim that Darth Jar Jar did appear in it. Therefore, the article must, under the strictest interpretation of the policy, misleadingly only include the part about the Reddit thread (which makes people think that he broke the story in 2015, he was the first guy to come up with it) because that is the only verifiable information available.

Hello there, welcome to the 'pedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you need pointers on how we title pages visit Naming conventions or how to format them visit our manual of style. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Help or add a question to the Village pump. Cheers! --maveric149

Hi Chrmb. You can now change your settings so the preview appears above the edit box (a much better arrangement IMO). It's in "Preferences", the last of the option on the tick list on the right. sannse 13:03 Feb 11, 2003 (UTC)

Thanx, I'll do that Chrmb.

Nice catch on 10-BaseT - It's been a while since I studied the OSI model, and it's a little fuzzier in my mind now than it was during my exams... ;-) Anyway, welcome to wikipedia - have fun! :) Martin

Thanks. But what's up with the "welcome"? I've been here a year and a half. I guess I shouldn't complain about friendliness in any form :-) Thanks !  --AMillar

 * Ahh, details :)

Hey Amillar. Welcome to Wikipedia! (no! sorry! just kidding!) How'd you get the picture from 1911 encyclopedia? Do they exist on the web? Arthur 21:16 Mar 18, 2003 (UTC)

Heh! Thanks :-) No, I haven't found them on the web.  I own a few beat-up volumes of the EB11 and scanned the aqueduct pictures myself.  Black-and-white images are being processed through Distributed Proofreaders right now (and I'm working on that project) but unfortunately the photos are very poor in the scans we are working from.  The line-drawn pictures are decent, and hopefully we'll find a way between DP and archive.org to make the entire image set available, but it isn't there yet.  --Alan

Hi, thanks for adding dates to the biographical listing pages. I've transferred W3 to your WikiMoney account to encourage you to keep up the good work. Cheers, AxelBoldt 19:36 22 May 2003 (UTC)

 * Thanks. I'm experimenting with some scripts to snarf the pages and cross-reference with the article page and other listings (list of inventors, list of Mexicans, etc.).  We'll see how it comes out :-)  Amillar 16:12 25 May 2003 (UTC)

Good work on all those biographical listings! However, are you sure it's a good idea to be creating all these new pages using the subpage naming scheme? We're trying to get rid of subpages :) If you're only experimenting, then nevermind... but perhaps we should work on un-subpaging them before creating new ones. -- Wapcaplet 14:21 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)

This whole "subpage" issue is an interesting one. Since the new Wikipedia software doesn't implement subpages, pages with a slash in the name are just more pages. So by definition, I haven't created any new subpages-- only new pages consistent with an older naming scheme :-) If you'd like to rename them to something without a slash, I'm certainly fine with that and I'll go along with whatever people would rather call them.  Until there is a consensus on a new name, I'm just keeping them consistent with each other.  -- Amillar 16:15 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)

 * Aren't they? Subpages have automatically-generated links at the top back to their "parent" article. Do not use subpages recommends moving them to a better name whenever possible. -- Wapcaplet 21:39 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)

 * Hmm, Interesting. The page Biographical Listing/BA does not have an automatic link to Biographical Listing.  There is a link, but it is in the text body.  However, user:Amillar/Contributions does have a link back to User:Amillar.  I guess we are both wrong :-) :-)  One of the procedure pages says they are implemented for Talk: and User: namespaces.  I learn something new every day.  In any case, it is time to rename them.  -- Amillar 22:04 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Dear Amillar: I must apologize for what I did. I did it in thebest interest of Wikipedia. If youre nice, you get apologies from me, and you did because while you commented on the issue in my page you were nice about it and did not offend me with your expression, such as the other person did. I dont want to hear from that other contributor anymore.

Thank you and God bless you.

Sincerely yours, Antonio The Contropedia Martin

Just a note, why change the wording in List of assassinated persons? The old way you could link to the relevant country, the new way it is impossible. --Dante Alighieri 23:11 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)

 * Darn! I botched a mass edit.  Thank you for catching that. -- Amillar 23:30 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)

BTW, thanks for the hard work on adding so many overlooked bios to list of people. I was about to ask on the pump why so many bios were missing from what should be the canonical list, then I saw you were actually doing something about it! Stan 12:02 7 Jun 2003 (UTC)

 * Thanks. The reason so many were missing is because nobody added them :-) :-)  -- Amillar 23:08 7 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Hello Amillar, first good work for list of people. It is a labor-intensive task so it is really great you are spending time. I just want to ask you if you can mark your contributions for list of people as minor since I don't think there would be any controversy about your editing because it seems to me you just break up pages. -- Taku 05:27 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)

 * Thanks for your feedback. Based on your comment that it seems to you that I'm only breaking up pages, I'm wondering if you have not seen what has been happening with the list of people pages in the last two weeks.  I'm not just breaking up pages, or just making minor changes.  I've added new list entries, or updated dates or comments on existing entries, for a few thousand people.  Feel free to look at my list of contributions.  I wouldn't necessarily call it controversial, but there have been a number of things to discuss about it at Talk:list of people (not to mention this very user talk page), so I don't think I should downplay the changes.  If I only change one or two things on a page, I usually do mark it as minor.  -- Amillar 05:47 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Hi Alan, I'm sorry for interfering with your work. I, too, was first under the impression you were doing just a simple page split-up, so I decided to help to make it go faster. I didn't realise you were also adding things; sorry if I caused confusion or inconvenience. -- Timwi 23:01 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)

 * Please, by all means, do not consider this as "my work" or that you are interfering. This is definitely a collaborative effort!.  In particular, I make some mass updates and I don't always catch duplicate names or other mistakes, so I defintely need your and everyone else's proofreading skills.  Thanks! -- Amillar 23:23 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Please note, at List of people associated with World War II, the George H.W. Bush page (no space between initials) is just a redirect to the George H. W. Bush page (space between initials), so it's really quite useless to use a George H. W. Bush piped link, since it shows up with the space that way, but links with the redirect. If your intent was for it to display without the space, that would be done as George H.W. Bush instead, but I don't consider keeping the space out to be a good enough reason to bother with a piped link anyway. -- John Owens 20:51 17 Jun 2003 (UTC)

 * Thanks for catching that. As I've mentioned in a few places, I'm using some script programming to try to get some consistency between the various list of people pages, including sorting through the numerous variations in people's names.  Obviously I got that one wrong.  I appreciate the extra eyes in catching these things.  Thanks.  -- Amillar 02:51 18 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Alan, Thanks again for your work in the biography name lists. As I've added entries, I have had one idea about headings, and thought I'd ask you opinion (because I'm undecided}. The page heading would be clener if we removed the unused links (e.g. there won't be any names in 'Rd'). OTOH, if we remove them all, and then need to add one (suppose that an 'Rc' name shows up), we'd need to go back and add that entry to all the 'R' subpages. Any thoughts? Lou I 19:43 17 Jul 2003 (UTC)

 * I agree that it looks better. My basic reaction, however, is that I don't want to do the work either now to remove them or later to re-add them :-)   Wikipedia being what it is, though, I would encourage you to feel free to clean them up however you think looks best.  When I do more page splits, I'll still create them like they are now (all letter combinations), but I won't object to anyone else cleaning them up.   <Rant> Actually, I object to the list of people by name pages existing as wiki pages at all.  They should be something like Special: pages automatically generated from metadata in people articles.</Rant>  But, hey, I also object to war, pollution, and entropy for that matter, and just objecting doesn't fix it.  So we can make do with what we have to work with for now.  -- Amillar 22:09 18 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Does any of that ring a bell? -- Tim Starling 11:26 19 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Achille Baquet & Acacius of Constantinople
Hi, Alan; thanks for all those entries (before i arrived at WP) on List of people by name. And you know that no good deed goes unpunished:

In ] you introduced
 * *Baquet, Achille, patriarch of Constantinople

Later, someone (i'll figure out who if this doesn't pan out) introduced
 * *Baquet, Achille, musician

They could both be right, but i suspect there's some kind of garble involved in the first one, which perhaps should simply be discarded.

It might be that Baquet was misfiled, by first name, at the time of the garble creating opportunity for them to interact, and later got moved from the As to the Bs. (I haven't checked List of people by name: Ac, since they probably were built and manipulated before being added to WP.)

(Curiously, but i assume irrelevantly, they got separated by a misplaced heading in, which has probably delayed suspicion about this.)

I'd welcome any insight you could offer. --Jerzy(t) 06:14, 2004 Jun 25 (UTC)

 * Thanks for catching that. The entry on the "B" page is just plain wrong.  The name "Baquet, Achille" should only be associated with the musician and should not point to the patriarch.  Please feel free to fix it and anything else you come across.   The way it happened is that "Achille" was next to "Acacius" in a list and they got mangled.  I was actually using some automated scripting to gather and update the data, and obviously I didn't proofread close enough.  I gave up after a while because I decided that manually maintaining it all is silly when the software could do it for us.  I'm waiting for the new categorization stuff to settle; when it does then I'm sure the List of People pages will be unnecessary and will go away completely. --Amillar 17:32, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Sleep Apnoea
Hi Alan,

First off, apologies for any breaches of protocol regarding my article on Sleep Apnoea; this was my first (albeit brief!) contribution, and I should have read the guidelines more carefully.

That said, my article on SA was original work (not "a cut-and-paste from a medical text"), lifted directly from my dissertation on the subject, as were the strange pink images. Rather than disregard it completely in favour of the older text, as you did in reverting to a previous article, perhaps you could marry the two into a better article?

I'm looking forward to reading it.

Kind Regards, Gary Bass MD

 * Thanks for your note. My apologies for making a rash assumption about your work; it is well written and Wikipedia will definitely benefit from it.  I'm not going to volunteer to do the integration of the whole thing, but we can structure it so the Wikipedia collaborative effort can work on it.  --Amillar 23:58, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)

NP. I've made a go at integrating the articles, correcting some minor errors in both, so there is a structure there for future updates from other Wiki encyclopaedists.

Copyvio images
Hi Amillar! I just saw your addition of Image:Aardvark.jpg to Images for deletion. In general, potential copyvio images should be listed on Copyright problems, not IfD. Best, Diberri | Talk 00:06, Aug 10, 2004 (UTC)

Bishoy
Hello, I was starting to work on the Bishoy article, which is presently a hodge-podge of copyvio materials taken from various Coptic Church sites and highly UE. After a little research I noticed you are the main author of Macarius of Egypt, which is in much better shape and a closely related bio. Probably you are much better qualified to fix Bishoy than me, if you cared to take it on. Otherwise, I'll use Macarius as a template and do the best I can. TIA FRS 22:32, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Please don't make links so complicated
At Greek alphabet, you wrote numbers. I changed it to numbers.

Writing hyphenated, logical, cats, evolutionary, rabbinical, Egyptian, dogmatic, apocryphal, fur trader, antagonistic, algebraic, legendary etc., makes the whole word, not just the part in the brackets, appear as a clickable link, which links to the article whose title is in the brackets. The more complicated form can be used for things like philosophies. Michael Hardy 23:51, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I consider that to be highly subjective. I'm having a hard time seeing how numbers is complicated, whereas having square brackets at some semi-random point in the middle of a word is not, but that's just me.  The brackets in the word certainly make it harder to search the source for a particular word.  And when a slipshod link like "He spoke Egyptian fluently" eventually gets properly disambiguated to "He spoke Egyptian fluently", then the scheme is out the window anyways.  I'm sorry it seems complicated to you.  This being Wikipedia, feel free to update them as you like. -Amillar 00:08, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

History of silk

 * I came across the History of silk article when doing disambiguation checks on Job. I simply started with the Job page and went to "what links here", and worked down the list.  I don't really know anything about silk, but tried to figure out what the article was intending in the link, and decided on Job (Biblical figure).  Feel free to fix it if I got it wrong.  Thanks -Amillar 16:25, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:Aqueduct-aqua-claudia.jpg
A tag has been placed on Image:Aqueduct-aqua-claudia.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Captain panda  03:57, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 04:45, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

About the page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bald_eagle
Hello, Amillar

In the text:

"Bald in the English name is derived from the word piebald, and refers to the white head and tail feathers and their contrast with the darker body."

I'm wondering why not adding another version to describe the name origin:

Thanks!

No, I'm not allowed to.
