==Welcome to Jamie's talk page!==
Please add new messages to the '''bottom of the page'''. If a conversation is started here, I'll respond here; if it starts on your talk page, I'll respond there.

====Contacting me====
I prefer to communicate via '''talk pages.''' Please only email me if there is a good reason not to conduct a conversation on a talk page. I usually '''''do not respond to emails''''' unless there's a valid reason why the question could not have been posted on a talk page.

====Why did you remove my external links?====
'''''If you've come here because you want to know why I removed some external links you've added''''', please read [[WP:SPAM|Wikipedia's policies on spam]], [[WP:EL|Wikipedia external link guidelines]] and [[WP:COI|conflict-of-interest]] first. Because of Wikipedia's popularity, it has become a target for folks looking to promote their sites, which is against Wikipedia policies. If you read [[WP:SPAM]] and still feel that your link(s) does not violate those policies, let me know.

One common argument I hear is ''But so-and-so link is on that article, and it's commercial!'' [[WP:EL]] doesn't explicitly forbid In links to commercial sites; it depends on the notability of the link, its content, and if it's a reference or a notable pro/con argument on a controversial subject, etc. On the other hand, I think that many Wikipedians would agree that there are way too many commercial links at present time, so feel free to "prune away" if the link doesn't meet guidelines in [[WP:EL]]. Incidentally, if you've come here to complain that I've deleted links to your blog (especially a blog with advertising), don't bother. You'll have to find free advertising somewhere else. A good Google search will reveal plenty of places for that sort of thing.

Vandalism and insults left here will be recycled in the bit bucket. Remember: [[Wikipedia:Civility|be nice!]]

I answer to personal attacks. I never attack! The others can attack and me not?--[[User:Testosterone vs diabetes|Testosterone vs diabetes]] ([[User talk:Testosterone vs diabetes|talk]]) 15:19, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

== Requesting reconsideration of my "spam" contributions... ==

First of all, let me say thank you for dedicating your time to improving wikipedia.

I've recently made some contributions to various articles, and you have flagged as spam.
As a starting point for discussion, please review the contribution I made here:
http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Cambridge%2C_Ontario&action=historysubmit&diff=323185370&oldid=323156043

In my opinion, this seems like a quality edit to an existing article, adding valid and helpful information to the article. If the site being referenced if your cause of concern, could you explain which aspects of it are deemed to be "spammy"? It is significantly more user friendly than the official census page.

I don't want to take up any more of your time than is necessary, but I would appreciate more of an explanation from you, if possible.

Thanks in advance,

==Forum links==
Hi, was wondering based on your greater experience whether the addition of forum links such as [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Lexus&curid=18329&diff=323911673&oldid=323555768] are ok...it's a new user.

== [[Avatar (2009 film)]] protection ==

Hello Jamie, I've noticed you've protected the Avatar article. I don't blame you to be honest, but is there any chance you can change this to semi protection? The problem is coming from a single anonymous IP which keeps changing, not the registered users. I've reported the IP for 3rr violation, and the problem is that he keeps removing the proper budget estimate with references and replacing it with $500m. The reverts from the other editors have been to simply restored referenced information, so it would be great if we could get on with looking after the article. Thanks. [[User:Betty Logan|Betty Logan]] ([[User talk:Betty Logan|talk]]) 15:03, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
: Oh sorry, it is semi-protected. I'm in thick mode today! [[User:Betty Logan|Betty Logan]] ([[User talk:Betty Logan|talk]]) 15:06, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

== Industrial robot ==
HELP1
Someone keeps entering their company in the list of manufacturers and I keep deleting it. It's an edit war and we need arbitration of some sort. I have no idea how to go about it. Can you help please.
HELP2
Also in the list was a company called TOSY who make a ping pong robot. I deleted the link but they have their own page. Is that right? It looks like self promotion to me and fails on notoriety. How can I get that assessed for deletion?

== Flying Spaghetti Monster parody ==
You recently removed my edits to this page due to a lack of cited references, however what I added is (1) referenced in a book by Richard Dawkins and (2) simply a statement about a colloquial usage. I suggest adding my comments to another section in the article.
:"Proponents of intelligent design sometimes consider the use of this parody as a cop-out to serious discussion. Some other internet and IM users consider phrases like, "time for the flying spaghetti monster" as a request for a joke or a more jovial topic." <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Blairius|Blairius]] ([[User talk:Blairius|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Blairius|contribs]]) 17:33, 26 November 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== hallo from uwe kils==
* the article has been written by my former students, i only added high resolution royalty free images, some information and links. everything is true and proovable. do you know of any professor who has the Heinz Maier Leibnitz Prize[2], the Heisenberg Prize and the 500,000 Bioscience Prize of the Volkswagen Foundation? an eb-1 visa http://www.foreignborn.com/visas_imm/immigrant_visas/employment_immigration/eb-1.htm for which you need an international notable price in the league of nobel prices? you have my colleague daniel pauly http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/File:Daniel_Pauly_Pauly_Symposium.jpg, he is not half as famous as i was. i am retired long time.

we donated thousands of photographs and i editied thousands.
i donated over 40 000 dollar anoumously over the years.
it would be nice if you have the entry alive, so my grandchildren and former students could find me. i shut down all other accounts. you can cut it down to 5 lines no picture. it would be nice if the categories stay.

Hi Jamie. I'm trying to figure out the rules here. Read the policies on spam. It sounds like my external links edits were appropriate but need to be reviewed by another person.

First, you contacted an administrator who was already involved in the situation rather than contacting an uninvolved and neutral admin. Second, you did not take the time to confirm these allegations with the user, who is presumably mature and intellectually honest enough to handle them. Third, your reply rephrased my comment to mean that I was disagreeing with your motivation regarding the legal threats, coi editing, and self-promotion. For the record, I don't.

== Medina, Ohio ==

Hello, Ohnoitsjamie. This is regarding your change to the Medina Ohio page on Dec 4 and the following message you left: '''"Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. OhNoitsJamie Talk 13:42, 4 December 2009 (UTC)"'''
Retrieved from "http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User_talk:Medinafrancis1925"
Hidden categories: User talk pages with Uw-advert1 notices

I did read all the Wiki pages prior to posting and I '''also''' read the current Medina page under the heading I posted to. There it lists several companies both national and local with no more or less relevance than Aadvantage Cab. Here is the actual text from that page:

'''Economy

'''''Due to Medina's location, approximately 30 miles south of Cleveland,[4] many residents of Medina now work in the Cleveland area and the city has acquired a somewhat suburban status.[7]Medina is home to the first Super Kmart Center.[9] The 24/7 grocery and general merchandise store opened in 1991 and continues to operate today. However, mainly due to Medina's boom in population throughout the 1990s, the novelty of having a Super Kmart soon wore off, and Kmart's lack of response to competition from Buehler's, Giant Eagle, Target, and especially Wal-Mart, left it on the brink of closure after Kmart's bankruptcy. Medina is also home to a Wal-Mart Supercenter, which is also an 24/7 grocery and general merchandise store. In recent years, Medina has encountered the arrival of other large retailers such as Borders, Home Depot, Starbucks, Bed Bath and Beyond, Old Navy, PetSmart and Pier 1 Imports. In October 2006, Target completed an extensive renovation.''''
'''''Medina is still home to the A. I. Root Company, now a candle manufacturer. A. I. Root is also the name of the local middle school.'''''

'''''The Bil-Jac dog food company was founded in Medina in 1947. It is still locally owned and operated.


Here again is what I added: '''''By 2004. Medina's population growth coupled with the city and county's increased enforcement of drunk driving laws, made it clear the community needed a full-time, full service cab company. In November 2004, Aadvantage Cab & Courier opened. Locally owned, they put several cabs in service to relieve the stress on the burgeoning court calenders by giving citizens a safe alternative to drinking and driving.'''''

In addition, the company I added has made many more contributions to the community and as someone who lives here I know that. I am not affiliated in any way except as a member of this community who has witnessed the impact the company has had. Having lost 2 family members to drunk drivers before they opened, I stand by my edit and will continue to. I will appreciate your either leaving it as is or removing all references to the other businesses as they '''are''' obviously a "soapbox" for large corporations

I made the statement more neutral and added a link to ALL state insurance commission sites but was deleted again. STATES that have a site and have GEICO listed SHOW that they are above average in consumer complaints to the Insurance Boards. This is the most 100% relevant and in fact is the only source for counting official complaints. About the lawsuits. I don't feel I should clutter the page with a count of lawsuits per state, but I could. Would that help? They are the number 1 sued auto insurance company in NM, CA, VA, and several other states.

== Geico state insurance complaints. ==

I took out the lawsuit information completely until I have time to go state by state and pull up this information. I understand this point and deletion.

I don't see why the fact that Geico has substantially above average state insurance commission complaints can not be included when I also include the link to every state insurance regulation department. The state insurance department is the one and only source for this information. It is the only reliable, verifiable source of information on this.

I think that the assertion that geico's profitability is related to it's lack of agents is false.

== Spamming Claim ==

Hi there,

I'm not sure if the message you sent me was automated, because if you look at what I'm doing, I think you'll agree that it's not spam.

I am definitely adding links to OpenRegs, but it is relevant for all the pages. OpenRegs is a site that keeps track of regulations from federal agencies, and what I'm posting are sites keeps track of the regulations from the specific agencies for each page on Wikipedia.

I was worried I might get flagged for linking to it for all of the agencies, but I think you'll agree that what I'm doing is legitimate. I have noticed that DMOZ is a legitimate site to link to, and I think OpenRegs is, in the same way. May I continue?

Thanks,
Seth Goldin

====Lost Tampon=Joke?====
OK, trying again - not sure why it is OK for you to refer to lost tampons as a joke but maybe if you actually had a medical background or did some research you would realise that this is a serious issue and that it is one that ought to be addressed in a serious article about Tampons. The section on Toxic Shock Syndrome seemed most appropriate - instead of ignoring the topic perhaps you could pass the review on to a woman or someone who isn't just going to dismiss this?
It is hard not to get annoyed at someone who makes a snide remark about jokes and seriousness and can't even be bothered to find out if the topic IS serious. Perhaps it is unfortunate that the only information that has any depth about the topic available to refer to is trying to engage the topic with humor - but the content is completely serious - just read the comments on the link I posted to see how people feel about... <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Owenl1998|Owenl1998]] ([[User talk:Owenl1998|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Owenl1998|contribs]]) 19:01, 14 December 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== [[Haifa Wehbe]] ==

Hi, I stumbled onto this article yesterday. Seems there's a bit of a brouhaha about the issue of how old she is. I removed the birth dates because there appears to be conflicting informatoin, and the date used is not backed up by the reference (it says she is 35 but does not say what her actual date of birth is). There are also other sources (not particularly reliable it must be said) saying she was born in 1976. At the moment I think the best thing is to not have a date in, unless there are some more definitive sources. [[User:Quantpole|Quantpole]] ([[User talk:Quantpole|talk]]) 16:55, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi OhNoItsJamie - First, thanks for your work and effort in helping to maintain Wikipedia. I am the founder of BoffoBox.com and I want to apologize if I or [[User:Ridaderek|Ridaderek]] have violated the EL policy of Wikipedia. Similar in form to IMDB.com, we provide both a free and paid version of our website. One for casual viewers and one for theatrical professionals. Per your EL policy, I realize that I was in violation by linking to a site that I own. I am hoping that you can help me determine how else Boffo Box is in violation of your policies. Our publicly available pages provide a wealth of information that is not available from other sources including show links, reviews, synopses, images, full credits, gross and attendance information and more. I feel that this provides enough unique and useful content to be of benefit to Wikipedia users who find this page. Boffo Box's goal is not to SPAM or violate policies in anyway but to help increase the usefulness of Wikipedia and in return gain greater exposure. Any help you can provide in this matter would be greatly appreciated. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Brianmcm32|Brianmcm32]] ([[User talk:Brianmcm32|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Brianmcm32|contribs]]) 06:38, 22 January 2010 (UTC)</span></small> [[User:Brianmcm32|Brianmcm32]] ([[User talk:Brianmcm32|talk]]) 06:41, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

I thank you for taking the time to consider my case. But, I feel that you may not have seen everything that Boffo Box contains on the website when relating to shows. After reviewing [[WP:ELYES]] #3, i find that Boffo Box fully fits this criteria. View the page:
*[http://boffobox.com/broadway/shows/1091/a-chorus-line A Chorus Line on Boffo Box]
This is a page for a show which has already done a Broadway run, and there are many aspects of this page which cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia format, if you click on the grosses button st the top of the show, a graph is displayed showing weekly grosses compared to their potential (this information is also updated on a weekly bases for currently running shows). If you dig deeper into the Boffo Box website by clicking the attendance/capacity sidebar you can also see a graph displaying the attendance at a show compared to the possible capacity on a weekly basis as well. This aspect certainly fits the requirements listed in [[WP:ELYES]] #3.[[User:Ridaderek|Ridaderek]] ([[User talk:Ridaderek|talk]]) 18:36, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
: There is nothing further to discuss here. You'll have to find some other way to promote the site. Wikipedia is not the place for it. <b>[[User:Ohnoitsjamie|OhNo<font color="#D47C14">itsJamie</font>]] [[User talk:Ohnoitsjamie|<sup>Talk</sup>]]</b> 18:52, 22 January 2010 (UTC)


Hi [[User:Ohnoitsjamie|OhNo<font color="#D47C14">itsJamie</font>]] - In your last response to me, you said that Boffo Box is non-notable. Could you help me understand what that means. I did some research and I came across these links: [http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User:Stifle/Don't_just_say_non-notable Don't Just Say Non-Notable]. I have also read ([http://www.doshdosh.com/guide-to-wikipedia-website-listing/ Guide to Wikipedia Website Listing]) that notability is not measured by an editor's subjective judgement. So it would be helpful if you could provide reasons why BoffoBox.com is not considered notable.

Again, after reading and re-reading the EL policy I can see why I and subsequently [[User:Ridaderek|Ridaderek]] were marked as spam. I added a link to a site that I owned and [[User:Ridaderek|Ridaderek]] added multiple links in a short amount of time. I'd like to walk through an example with you before you provide your reasons why we are not notable. Here are several links for the Broadway show A Little Night Music:
*[http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/A_Little_Night_Music Wikipedia Page]
*[http://ibdb.com/production.php?id=485016 IBDB Page]
*[http://stageagent.com/Shows/View/735 StageAgent Page]

If you look at the link for StageAgent, it provides some basic information on the show including Synopsis, Character listing and some credits. But it also has 6 advertisements on the page. iBDB provides a listing of show credits and opening night cast information.

If you will then look at the [http://boffobox.com/broadway/shows/1233/a-little-night-music BoffoBox Page] you will see that we provide synopsis, show credits, show links, show reviews, and the past four weeks of attendance and revenue information on the show. With no out-side advertising but links to upgrade if users would like more information (again similar to IMDB which is another notable site on Wikipedia).

I hope that you will take the time to review these links. Again, it is not our intention or goal to SPAM or blatantly self-promote through Wikipedia. Our hope is that we can come to a mutually agreeable way that we can provide content and professionally verified information to Wikipedia.

Thanks for your time. [[User:brianmcm32|brianmcm32]] [[Special:Contributions/67.84.143.57|67.84.143.57]] ([[User talk:67.84.143.57|talk]]) 20:07, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

This dispute was posted on [[WP:3O]]. Despite being resolved at least three other ways already, to satisfy the requesting user(s), I'll give my take. Since this site is not notable enough to merit its own Wikipedia page, citing the inclusion of IMDB is not a valid comparison, since IMDB is widely considered to be ''the'' foremost aggregation of facts about film and TV shows. The site also doesn't appear to include any shows outside New York City. Additionally, [[WP:ELNO]] #1 states, "One should avoid any site that does not provide a unique resource beyond what the article would contain if it became a featured article."

== Warning re Brendan Burke delete discussion ==

It is hardly a personal attack to point out someone's faulty reasoning. The editor took a broad description and applied it to himself. This was his response: "In that case, fuck you. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 04:13, 10 February 2010 (UTC--[[User:Interactbiz|Norm, Vancouver, Canada]] ([[User talk:Interactbiz|talk]]) 23:47, 10 February 2010 (UTC))"

By applied again, do you mean that I posted essentially the same message at talk pages of both danflave and FisherQueen. It seems fair to make each aware of the comment since they were involved in the original conversation. If FisherQueen considers my comment a personal attack, what was the F.U. statement she posted? Perhaps you could explain what the "many people" considered a personal attack. I merely pointed out that FisherQueen took offense to a statement that she determined was directed to her yet it could have been a criticism intended to apply generally.

Please read the following:

You MUST (that's right I am emphasizing this word) look at the etymology of the word and the context.

From enotes.com "In modern times, the word "Nazi" has meanings that go beyond this. We of course use the word to apply to the actual members of the Nazi Party. But we also use it to refer to anyone who is a fanatic about a cause, especially one who wants to force others to agree with/be like them." and "Either way, the word's meaning (its "semantic range") has grown considerably in the last few decades of the 20th century. The popular comedy show Seinfeld introduced us to "Soup Nazi," for example, and women activists for equal rights are sometimes still derisively called "feminazis.""

Today there are "Shoe Nazis," "Spelling Nazis," "Style Nazis," etc. The list is extensive and could go on for pages actually.

The etymology of words change over time or vary by place. In the US a "biscuit" is called a "cookie," "Crisps" are "Chips," and "Chips" are "French Fries". Over time a "computer" stopped being a job that a person held, and started being a reference to a machine.

People have been PASSIONATE (there I go again using all caps) about this subject, but being offended by some of the comments that have been made really does take an assumption of bad faith on the part of the "offendee" in some instances.

==C++==

Hi, I appreciate your concern over external links, but I think the link to C++Org should be on the C++ page for a few key reasons. The documents you mention above state:

"What should be linked
:1. Wikipedia articles about any organization, person, website, or other entity should link to the subject's official site, if any. See Official links below."

C++Org belongs to the C++ community and as it grows it will be an official hub of news, FAQs, software library reviews and so on. It has been running for about a year, with 200 users, so far. There is no charge for using the site, and it is entirely non-commercial (and there is no advertising on the site). It is endorsed by Bjarne Stroustrup, the inventor of C++ and there is a link to it from his home page.

"3. Sites that contain neutral and accurate material that is relevant to an encyclopedic understanding of the subject and cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia article due to copyright issues, amount of detail (such as professional athlete statistics, movie or television credits, interview transcripts, or online textbooks), or other reasons."

C++Org contains much material that is highly relevant to C++, which for technical reasons cannot be integrated.

Could you please re-instate the link?

dch888. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Dch888|Dch888]] ([[User talk:Dch888|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Dch888|contribs]]) 22:26, 23 February 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

::: [[WP:EL]] and [[WP:Reliable sources]], as well as the blurb at the top of my page, make it pretty clear. With 200 users, it's hardly notable among the multitudes of resources on thew topic.

:::: I have already read [[WP:EL]] which I quoted above, and that page gives reasons for links to be included which coincide with the aims of C++Org. [[WP::Reliable sources]] I can't see how C++Org can be considered an unreliable source. It is a community site, collectively owned by everyone and anyone in the C++ community. The fact that it only has 200 users, is because it has only been running for one year. We get about one new user a day, so in another year's time we might have 500 users - when is the boundary going to occur when you are anyone else at Wikipedia consider it to be "reliable". The whole thing about reliablity seems to be highly subjective if you ask me - unless there is a specific section on that page which you are referring to, which you think C++Org doesn't comply with? As far as COI goes, there is no conflict anywhere - as I've already said (at least twice), it's a community - owned and run by anyone interested in C++, it has no affliation with any paricular group and it is totally non-commercial.

Secondly you have sent me a message saying "Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia" which is the crux of the matter since I fundamentally disagree with your assessment that the link I am trying to add to the C++ page is "inappropriate". Answer me this: how can a website, the original idea for which was from the author of C++, be considered inappropriate? The only reason I want the link on the C++ page, is because the C++Org website belongs to the C++ community and should be linked from this Wiki page. I happen to manage the C++Org website, but I only promote it for the benefit of the community - I have precisely no other interest in this website. Simply saying "No, and I'm not going to discuss this further", not answering my specific points (which were answers to specific points raised in the official guidelines you referred me to) seems to be to be opposed to the spirit of this information sharing website.

== Northridge cookies ==

Hi, Ohnoitsjamie. I see you just deleted [[Northridge cookies]] under [[WP:CSD#G1]]. While I certainly agree that the article content was not encyclopedic and should have been deleted, unfortunately G1 didn't apply: "Pages consisting entirely of incoherent text or gibberish with no meaningful content or history. This ''excludes'' poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, implausible theories, vandalism and hoaxes, fictional material, coherent non-English material, and poorly translated material." The paragraphs in the article were meaningful English text; they just weren't appropriate for an encyclopedia. I'm not sure if any of the speedy deletion criteria applied, in fact; I was in the middle of declining the speedy request and substituting a {{[[Template:prod|prod]]}} tag when you deleted the article.

But aside from that, regardless of any real or imagined over-tones there, I still think (I'm being honest and sincere here) that "Catholicism" is much more neutral and precise, than merely saying "Christianity". &nbsp; Plus the rest of the article DOES use the term "Catholic". &nbsp; "Christianity" is broad, and can mean whatever someone wants it to mean. &nbsp; But "Catholicism" or "Roman Catholicism" tells people just what form of "Christianity" it was.

I have regular history text books that say "convert to Catholicism."

Anyway, whatever happens happens. &nbsp; I am glad that the substance of what I put there to elaborate what went on in the Second Voyage was left. &nbsp; I do appreciate that. &nbsp; Like I said, I really meant no harm or slants or anything. &nbsp; In fact just the opposite. &nbsp; And established sources are established sources, even if we may not totally agree with everything they say or publish otherwise. &nbsp; But like I said, I do understand the concerns, especially when dealing with an overall religious magazine. &nbsp; I do hear that. &nbsp; Anyway, thank you. &nbsp; [[User:Sweetpoet|Sweetpoet]] ([[User talk:Sweetpoet|talk]]) 23:09, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
: I don't object to the change from "Christianity" to "Catholicism."

== Henna article external link ==

I restored the external link you removed from the Henna article because the link was allowed severla years ago after some discussion with other Wikipedia editors who agreed that the site is, in fact, non-commercial, devoted to information, research and discussion on henna and related topics. The site is owned by Wikipedia member 1hennaphd, who is a PhD candidate in geography at Kent State University, working on a dissertation on the development of the worldwide spread of henna usage since the 1990s. She did an extensive rewrite of the Wikipedia henna article in 2006. She included the link to hennapage.com because the site contains articles based on her own research and links to scholarly, technical, medical and scientific writing on henna and related subjects that go far beyond the limitations of the Wikipedia article. 1hennaphd owns a henna distribution business but on hennapage.com, aside from the links in the site header which includes text links to her commercial sites, there is no advertising, no solicitation to purchase any product or service or any commercial promotion expressed or implied in any of the articles.

I hope that you will take all of the above into consideration and let the link remain a part of the henna article. [[User:49oxen|49oxen]] ([[User talk:49oxen|talk]]) 03:14, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi,

Alt text for images is required to comply with United States law on people with disabilities. Wikipedia requires [[alt text]] for Featured articles and soon will require it for all articles.

RAID 1 mirrors the contents of the disks, making a form of 1:1 ratio '''realtime backup'''. The contents of each disk in the array are identical to that of every other disk in the array. A RAID 1 array requires a minimum of two drives.

==Crime in Houston==
I don't see where to put, so I am putting it here. I did not state any opinions on the Houston page. That is factually incorrect. I cited a Times-Picayune newspaper article. Facts cited: Houston's homicide wave began before Katrian. Houston recorded 225 homicides in the months before Katrian. Simple math tells you they were recording an average 28.125 homicides a month. They were on pace for 337 homicides that years. These facts are all verified in the newspaper article I cited. It is a fact that Houston gangs were targeting New Orleanians in the SW part of Houston. That's a fact. Those are facts. It is a fact that a false rape claim was made against New Orleanians and caused an anti-New Orleans hysteria in Houston. Those are facts.

While I appreciate that you added reference to the Times-Picayune article, I still believe that the article, as stated, is dangerous.

See, there you go again with this "opinion" nonsense. That is not an editorial by the Times-Picayune. That is all fact. And it may not be Wikipedia's job to judge, but it should owe something to the truth. HPD is doing what all public officials and offices do--- protecting themselves politically by pointing the finger elsewhere. The Times-Picayune is doing what newspapers do, report facts. Now, while I suppose that in wiki's zeal for being "fair and balanced" you may not have any problem with balancing the truth with a lie, the article, as you've edited it is not even balanced, as it does not take into account the many facts the T-P article cites. The fact that 19 of Houston's homicide victims that year were New Orleanians --- they were victims ---A FACT. The fact, that Houstonians went to such lengths to blame New Orleanians for their problems that they believed false allegations against New Orleanians and spread hysteria against them, only to mumble under their breaths later that they were wrong. The FACT that New Orleanians were being railed against as a major threat to Houston by local businesses who called them Katricians, as part of this hysteria. http://articles.latimes.com/2006/sep/18/nation/na-guns18The FACT that gangs in SW Houston targeted New Orleanians. None of these FACTS are in the Houston article. They all belong there since the article claims that New Orleanians are at fault for Houstons problems. You also conveniently left out that Houston experienced 225 murders before Katrina even ocurred. These are NOT opinions.

:Thank you for attempting to reason with Fabritius. As you saw, his sources consist of a few web pages (which don't meet his own unique definition of an authoritative sources) and sources from before he was born, which obviously can't prove he exists, let alone his claims about being a prince. I have showed him sources, including the English translation of the Italian Constitution, which show that Italian titles of nobility were abolished in 1948, yet he still insists he is a prince. I have shown him that the Almanac de Gotha is cited on Google Scholar over 80 times more often than "elenco ufficiale" and "libro d'oro" combined, yet he refuses to accept Gotha as a source. Now that you have warned him and reverted his edits (the 28th time he has been reverted bu my count), maybe this will get his attention. Regardless, thanks for trying.

== Engagement ring ==

Hi, you deleted some information on the Engagement ring page because you considered it advertising. Could you please explain exactly what was wrong with it? All I did was make two very vague statements more accurate. The first one was about the first engagement ring. The original line states that it was given by "an" archduke in Vienna in the 1470's. I provided the names of the people involved an the exact year. I also added that the diamond in the engagement ring symbolizes eternal love. I think this is important because this explains why engagement rings have a diamond in it. This is not mentioned anywhere else on the page and I think it is important to explain how the tradition started.
The second piece of information I added was about what factors determine the cost of an engagement ring. Once again, I think this is valuable information that needs to be present on this page.
I think I only added objective and factual information. It was in no way advertising or even mend to be advertising. I agree that we need to be very careful when using commercial websites as references. But I never stated the name of the website or provided a link to a page were products were offered. The only references I used were good and solid information pages. I also don't think it's out of line to use a jeweler's website as a reference for which factors influence the price of an engagement ring.
I am very interested in hearing your thoughts about this.

==Massimo article - Fabritius has ignored your advice + a request for help==

Dear Jamie. I write as a follow up to Edward321's [http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User_talk:Ohnoitsjamie#Massimo post above] on the [[Massimo]] article, and your subsequent post on [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Fabritius&diff=362265994&oldid=362265723 Fabritius's talk page] on 15/05/10, asking him to 'Please continue use the talk pages before making controversial and/or major changes to articles. You have yet to achieve any sort of consensus on this page for the edits you are proposing'.

Since then, Fabritius has ignored your warning/request (although he has clearly read your comments) and simply continued to edit war the article, resuming a practice he followed before the first protection of the article on the 20/04/10 (see [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Massimo&action=history Massimo article edit history]).

Fabritus's changes replace the simple three line last paragraph on the heirs to the family honours (in which he is respectfully referenced as one of the main title holders - indeed he is mentioned first) with a series of vanity paragraphs about himself, the deletion of all other heirs and other information, and the deletion of the correct sources (for which there is a consensus).

He has done this without any sort of consensus for his changes, which are significant and clearly controversial. Indeed, there is a clear consensus on the talk page against his proposed changes to the last paragraph, a paragraph which has remained essentially unchanged in format since 2006 (see the edit by 'CARAVAGGISTI' on 28/09/06 in [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Massimo&diff=84162301&oldid=78376938 this version, para at bottom]) until Dec 2009 (see the edit by LeilaniLad on 2/12/09 in [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Massimo&diff=329287716&oldid=329287559 this version, para at bottom]). Between Sept 2006 and Jan 2010 many editors altered content in the article itself, but the paragraph in dispute remained essentially the same until Fabtitius began changing it in Jan 2010.

The issue here is that despite a huge amount of patience and extensive reference work by myself and by Edward321 on the [http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Talk:Massimo Massimo talk page], and despite repeated warnings/urgings by other editors (Fabritius has been warned about the need to seek consensus by yourself, and by other editors and admins, for example see [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Talk:Massimo&diff=357595641&oldid=357473634 this post by TheDJ]), he is simply ignoring the rules and just making the changes anyway, without a single person agreeing with him on the talk page.

He has a clear COI (see [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Fabritius&diff=357194971&oldid=357192919 this warning by Dave1185]). His behaviour is often very aggressive despite no one else ever responding in kind - indeed he has repeatedly insulted any editor who does not simply roll over and agree with him, branding them 'biased' (see [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Dave1185&diff=360729878&oldid=360519988 this post]), a 'liar' (see [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Nick-D&diff=357265014&oldid=357244861 this post]), and 'ridiculous' (see [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Talk:Massimo&diff=357417727&oldid=357402393 this post]). His tactic seems to be to simply try and wear people down until he gets his way without abiding by the spirit and rules of Wikipedia. He has been warned against this sort of behaviour (see [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Dave1185&diff=prev&oldid=357832278 this warning]) by other editors, but simply ignores all this advice and/or these warnings.

All I and Edward321 are trying to do is keep the last paragraph in its original format and defend it against serial, non-consensus based vanity editing, and we have backed up the original with extensive sources and references, yet all this work is being ignored by this editor. After his first resumption of edit warring on the 14/05/10 I posted a message [http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Talk:Massimo#A_request_to_Fabritius_-_please_stop_the_edit_warring_you_have_resumed politely asking him not to do this again], yet he has done this twice since I posted and indeed twice since your warning (with Edward321 reverting the article back each time). I have tried so hard to keep things calm and based on facts, and invested an enormous amount of time to do the exhaustive research (as you can see from the article talk page), yet I just don't believe Fabritius is interested in a discussion, he just wants to steamroll others to get his way and I think this is deeply unfair.

As you can see there is a clear consensus for the original version (as restored at 23.53 on the 18/05/10 by Edward321 in [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Massimo&diff=362911042&oldid=362894563 this edit]).

Is there anything you can do to help us with this editor? I was just about to revert Fabritius's last edit myself and restore the original/consensus version when I thought I would ask you if you would be prepared to do it instead, having noticed that you are currently online. I think if the revert came from an administrator - particularly one whose warning/advice he had already ignored once - it would be much less likely to be undone. I (or Edward321 I would imagine) will do it if you don't feel you can, but I wanted to ask you first as I think a revert from you with a warning not to change it back without first getting a consensus would be much more effective in putting an end to this rather exhausting example of serial abuse.

Your help on this and indeed anything else you could do to prevent this from happening again would be much appreciated.
