Ely, Nevada > Vandalism from User 84.50.98.7
{{Help}}
In the article Ely, Nevada, it looks like User 84.50.98.7 put back some things that another editor removed. In reading the tutorials on here, those items shouldn't be here, Trivia, or worked in to the article. They also repeated things twice, like they copied and pasted the info, Pat Nixon was in the History and Trivia section, there was an ATTRACTIONS section in both History and Geography, with the same information, and images were repeated twice, with two Wildlife sections. Could you tell me what to do next? It looks like vandalism. Thanks for now. Best O Fortuna (talk) 02:13, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Just revert it and warn the user for adding unnecessary info. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 02:23, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Looks fine to me. You removed a lot, but it wasn't really appropriate info for an encyclopedia anyway. I'm sure there's an encyclopedic way that some of the info could be re-added, but for now it's good. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 02:51, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Tom Lea
About Tom Lea . . . I can't remember where I got the "classics of southwest literature" blurb for Tom Lea. It is mentioned in "The Brave Bulls" article, but it may have been from a prologue to his book or maybe from the Encyclopedia of Texas Online. Nice work on the article, though. I was in El Paso on business when I wrote the entry and was surprised to see only a single sentence or so, so I expanded it. Deatonjr (talk) 19:02, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Discouragement
Hey, don't get discouraged about attacks from other wikipedia editors. It's usually just a misunderstanding. Editors who have put a lot of work into a particular article get that way when edits are made, especially if they've worked it up the quality rating to a high level. When this happens, I look for a new topic. I enjoy creating the foundation of new articles and seeing how they develop from there. That's why it was exciting to see you pick up the Lea articles from there being nothing before. I really only actively edit or update a couple of articles on a regular basis. Deatonjr (talk) 18:44, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
Humboldt Bay
There was never a statement that Humboldt Bay was the deepest. In fact not a single word on any of the pages referring to the bay have ever claimed that Humboldt Bay is deepest. In reality the Bay is dredged to a depth of something like 40 feet. That would be quite shallow compared to some. Perhaps you may want to re-read the statement to which you were referring.

Searchers
Having grown up in West Texas, I have a different definition of "West Texas" than you, I guess. Though your post to me read as ultra-patronizing, I choose to think you were being lighthearted and friendly. If you want the article to read "West Texas" whether the FILM says West Texas or not, that's fine with me. It's no big deal to me nor do I feel the need to throw reams of documentation back your way. My point was merely that the film makes no mention of West Texas, and there were lots of Comanche in areas my neighbors in Midland and Snyder would never dream of calling WEST Texas. Most of them think Fort Parker is in Central Texas, not West. But I concede the point. It doesn't really matter what I think. Monkeyzpop (talk) 02:05, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Wuchih Mountain Military Cemetery
I do know how to drive there (the photographs of the cemetery were taked by me after all). Why are you interested in that cemetery? Have you lived part of your life in Taiwan? Allentchang (talk) 17:11, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
- Eh, Homer Lea died in 1912 and has nothing to do with the post-1949 Republic of China. All the military people buried there lived for some time in Taiwan. It doesn't make sense to place Homer's grave marker in that cemetery just like Sun Yat-sen doesn't have a grave marker there. Additionally, the cemetery has a room with potraits of all the ROC generals who are buried there. There is no picture of a non-ethnic Chinese general there. You would be better off checking 忠烈祠 Martyr's Shrine, which does cover "martyrs" who tried to establish a Republican government in China. I have no idea if they placed Homer Lea's "Spirit tablet" in that shrine and even if it is there, it would probably be very difficult to take a picture of it given the number of spirit tablets over there. Unfortunately, I don't where is the official website for the Martyr's Shrine. Allentchang (talk) 18:56, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
- If knew there was such a website or e-mail address, I would have already given it to you, so please stop asking like a prosecutor. I am trying to give you alternatives here to help your search because if one path leads to a dead end, one has to try other paths and see what happens.
- Thanks for providing me the link that has a picutre of the grave. Based on the picture and caption, Lea can't be buried on the Wuchih Mountain Cemetery. Although the Wuchih Mountain Cemetery is legally located near the borders of the Yangmingshan National Park, it is located far from the region that most residents of Taipei would psychologically consider to be Yangmingshan. So let me recommend a possible alternative in your search for Homer Lea's burial place. Democracy activist Linda Arrigo has been giving residents of Taiwan a tour of various graves in Taipei to let them know about Taiwan's past: [1] [2]. Unfortunately, I don't know how you can contact her.
- I could also try to ask my father, who is a history professor. Allentchang (talk) 03:02, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
Re that reference tag
I would have fixed it but I didn't actually know how to. I'm OK with regular references to external links but that one was of a sort that I hadn't encountered before. The only reason I noticed it was that there was a large section of the text missing, resulting in the paragraph not making much sense. I saw that the text was there but not displaying when I opened the edit page and realised that the reference tag was the cause of the problem. I removed it so the article would read properly and labelled my action clearly with the implied understanding that somebody with more experience would probably look at the article and would be able to repair it. If you look at my contributions you will see that the vast majority are spelling and grammar corrections plus a few fixed links and added external references- not very technical stuff at all. I hadn't encountered a reference tag like that one before and simply didn't know how to fix it. I see, however, that it has been fixed now and that the missing text is displaying properly. Thanks.IrishPete (talk) 11:01, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Homer Lea Part II
My father doesn't even know who Homer Lea is, which probably means that from his perspective, Homer is historically irrelevant. I've searched everywhere on the web for the exact burial place using the terms "國父孫中山的軍事顧問荷馬· 李" (Military Adviser to the Founding Father Sun Zhongshan (aka Sun Yat-sen), Homer Lea) and "李荷馬" (Homer Lea), but the results turn negative. I speculate that Homer is buried near the Kuomintang Party Archives in Yangminshan because I know that a famous Kuomintang general Hu Zongnan (Hu Tsung-nan) has a grave there. Perhaps you should go to the Kuomintang website at http://www.kmt.org.tw and ask someone there about this. Unfortunately, I can't find an English contact page. All I can find is this e-mail address on the Chinese contact page: od_ningpeng@kmt.org.tw Allentchang (talk) 16:30, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Best O Fortuna. You could well be right. A still of McGinnis's poster for the film is at http://flickr.com/photos/9teen87/with/2478652544/ To be fair it doesn't look exactly like the one in the art work illustrated so to be safe I'll make the change to err on the side of caution.

Re: Page protection for: Blake Griffin
Hi there. I've declined your request for now, as the vandalism isn't particularly high. Page protection is generally applied when it is impossible to keep up with the reverting. After all, Wikipedia is a wiki, so restricting people's editing privilege is a rather big deal. As a general rule of thumb, I look for at least 5 bad-faith edits/vandalism reversions per day, for at least several days, before I apply page protection.
Hope this helps! Regards, –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 06:57, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
- Well, as much as we need to prevent damage to the encyclopedia, we can't drive new editors away with unnecessary page protection. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 07:10, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Big 12 basketball
Based on your heavy editorial involvement in Blake Griffin, I thought you might be interested in creating a 2008–09 Big 12 Conference men's basketball season article. I have created a 2008–09 Big Ten Conference men's basketball season and there is a 2008–09 Atlantic Coast Conference men's basketball season both of which may serve as guides. I have recently convinced the Big East to begin 2008–09 Big East Conference men's basketball season.

Actually, it's been a couple of years since I added the comment to the talk page there. I don't remember the edit very well, except that I spent some time in checking out the sources. Perhaps the sources were wrong, or I just made a mistake. In any case I'll bow to your judgement if you've done more than a superficial investigation.
Do you have a close connection to Humbolt Bay? Maybe you could look at Seth Kinman to see if you could find some sources or add anything. (Just a hope).

Vandalism of

I am reporting that he is based in both Florida and Singapore - which is correct - as well as other factual changes. I would like the changes to be reverted.

Re: Vandalism to William Guarnere
You posted that I vandalized the Wiki page of William Guarnere. I had no intention of doing so. I saw that this book was supposedly published by Berkely Publishing Group. I know that the university UC Berkeley has a publishing wing and I thought that perhaps Berkeley was spelled incorrectly in that article. Turns out I was in the wrong because it was referencing another one. It's my fault for not fact-checking. But I was in no way vandalizing. I hope you don't ban me or take any restrictive actions.

Thin Lizzy
With regard to your edit at Thin Lizzy, I thought you might find American and British English differences#Grammar interesting. The Thin Lizzy article is written in British English and the grammar used there may differ from what you consider correct. Cheers, Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:13, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
- Well in that case, "name" is a straight singular noun, so "The name of the band is Thin Lizzy" is correct. Equally, if you came to Britain and said "Thin Lizzy is a great band", people would think that quite funny, and they might well correct you. You're right about foreign speakers - many Europeans learn American English then come over to London and wonder why we laugh at them! Some clever person once said that the UK and the US were "divided by a common language". How right that is! Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:21, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

Alexander William Doniphan
Hi Best O Fortuna. I agree with you that Muench's book says "Smith's neighbors... feared... polygamy" as cited. However, Muench doesn't cite his source for the assertion. In addition, the statement in Muench merely implies polygamy was a problem in 1833 by its placement in his chapter on Doniphan. The current wording of the Doniphan article does more than imply polygamy was a significant contributor to Missourian fears in 1833.
The topic of the beginnings of Mormon polygamy has been heavily researched and there is no contemporary documention that polygamy was attributed to Mormons in the 1833 timeframe. Todd Compton's 1997 "In Sacred Loneliness" is only able to make a circumstantial case that Joseph Smith may have entered into a plural marriage with Fanny Alger by 1833 (Compton, pp. 25-42). Richard Bushman's 2005 "Joseph Smith: Rough Stone Rolling" acknowledges rumors were circulating by 1835 (Bushman, p. 323) as referenced in the LDS-issued 1835 "Article on Marriage," but the rumors themselves are not extant and may have been due to confusion between Mormons and contemporary radical sects (e.g., marital experiments on the part of Noyes' Oneida community and the followers of Jacob Cochran). Mormon Jared Carter sought a second wife in 1835 (Compton, p. 39), but he was specifically disciplined for doing so. Assertions by believers that Joseph Smith taught plural marriage circa 1831-1832 are only documented after Brigham Young publicly announced the practice of polygamy in 1857 (the Wikipedia article on "Origin of Latter Day Saint polygamy" documents the late date of these assertions in the footnotes).
By 1838 Oliver Cowdery was accusing Joseph Smith of conducting a "dirty, nasty, filthy affair" with Fanny Alger, as he wrote to Warren A. Cowdery on Jan 21 1838 (Cowdery Letter Book), but an 1838 allegation of an affair is not reason in 1833 for Missourians to evict their Mormon neighbors. The first affirmed plural marriage didn't occur until April 1841 and was not publically documented at the time (George D. Smith, Nauvoo Polygamy, 2008, p. 1; Compton, pp. 55-70; Bushman, pp. 437-439). It was not until John C. Bennett's 1842 letters in the Sangamo Journal and his "THE HISTORY OF THE SAINTS ; Or, An Exposé of JOE SMITH And MORMONISM" that Mormons were publicly linked with polygamy in writing. Of academic interest, Bennett biographer, Andrew Smith, makes clear that Bennett's 1842 accusations didn't capture the actual nature of Joseph Smith's polygamous practices (The Saintly Scoundrel, Smith, 1997, p. 138).
So, Muench says what he says about the fears that caused the initial clash between old-time Missourians and the Mormons. But he didn't cite sources and no primary sources document polygamy as a prominent fear in the events of 1833.
My removal of the words about polygamy as a fear in 1833 was not inspired by a desire to vandalize the page, merely by a desire to avoid strengthening and promulgating simplifications of history that are not supported by primary documents.

Hi, the sock is HarveyCarter It was late and I was just reverting his edits, they are not all bad but they usually push some uncited and often uncitable content on the grounds that user knows it is the truth, Please feel free to replace all the content that s cited or non controversial. I will have a look at it now, regards. Off2riorob (talk) 11:02, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
The only cite was to imbd which is not reliable for supporting any content apart from parts in movies etc. Oh there was also a cite to http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/1399178.stm lookin... also the sock misrepresents citation as well, I see that the bbc citation comes after .... the extent of Thaw's alcoholism that had started in the late 1970s and caused problems in their marriage and the gaps in Thaw's career in the early 1980s and later 1990s.[1]... when looking at the citation there is nothing at all about alcoholism. What I will do is replace anything that is not contentious. Off2riorob (talk) 11:05, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Sterling Price
I have initiated a rollback at Sterling Price and one other page. However, he did do one rather decent edit (citing his own work) at Bushwhackers and so I sceptically left it. Best, A Sniper (talk) 15:38, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello, Fortuna and/or Sniper: I'm not sure I'm doing this correctly, but a question: I'm happy to add original source citations, but where do I do it? Have you guys wiped out the changes to the Sterling Price article that I made, in which case I need to start over? Or are my changes in a suspense file somewhere that I can access and make the revsisions you've requested? Thanks, mwgf79 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwgf79 (talk • contribs) 01:48, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
Dear Best O Fortuna - I added original source citations, etc. to my revisions to the Sterling Price article. Does this suit? Thanks, mwgf79 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwgf79 (talk • contribs) 08:06, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
- I concur with your stance that Mwgf79 has gone about things the wrong way entirely - spamming, self-referencing and self-serving. However,I did allow for an edit at Bushwhacker but another editor reverted. I don't believe it is our duty to give Mwgf79 a tutorial on how to edit, although we can of course point him in the right direction. I just don't have the time to cherry pick through his edits to purge the self-referencing bit and instead hope he begins editing using other secondary sources, and allow other interested and informed editors to use his work, when & if appropriate, as source material. Best, A Sniper (talk) 18:17, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
Let me (mwgf79) ask, then - what's going on here? I did what was asked - I cited primary sources, and added that for a more complete discussion of the banking episode, see my book of XYZ title. Wikipedia has no ban on contributors citing their own work - contributors are advised to use caution, and I did. I noted that readers wishing more information on this subject should refer to my work on the subject. There's a lot more detail to Price, et al.'s involvement with the banks than a couple of newspaper articles. This is not original research - it's been published in a peer-reviewed journal (Journal of Southern History) and by a prestigious university press (Yale). For that matter, my dissertation on this topic won Columbia University's Nevins Prize in North American Economic History. If it's good enough for those folks, I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong re wikipedia. mwgf79 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwgf79 (talk • contribs) 23:37, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

my name is Jim Liebgott Jr. I am a grandson of Joseph D. Liebgott, about whom the article I changed is written. I don't know how to prove any of this with verifiable, third-party sources. I also don't know how to verify any of the things my Grandfather told me. Everything I wrote or changed was information told me by Joseph D Liebgott or his Mother Mary (my Great-Grandmother). Is there some way to address this situation? I can point out that Stephen Ambrose, author of "Band of Brothers", never spoke or corresponded with Joseph D. Liebgott (I can't prove that, of course); thus, most of what is known about Joseph D Liebgott outside of Name, Rank, and Serial Number, is gleaned from the memories of his war comrades.

I know what you mean but the worst thing you can do in that case is call them "knobhead" etc. People like that are usually just 13 years old having a giggle to themselves at the attention they create. The best solution is to give them no attention and simply revert them on sight with neutral messages (undid revision X by IP:Y) and template them with vandal warnings.
