[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Jac16888 Talk 22:17, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why?

[edit]

Why this destructive edit?? Not to mention, your "cards" method is completely WP:OR and does not belong in the article at all. You are, and have been, way out of bounds. Ihardlythinkso (talk) 00:42, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Now you have removed decent text, again, without explanation. You should discuss on the Talk page. You have never entered any discussion on the Talk page at any time. Why is that? You previously used your own article markup, completely divergent from standard WP articles and MoS header markup, etc. You have consistently added your own WP:OR cards method analysis, changed it, and changed it several more times ... all of it being WP:OR. You even added your own blog site as an WP:EL. You have also in the past deleted my comments on the article Talk page, which is only permitted if said comments are personal attacks, but my comments were topical not personal. All these facts suggest to me that you have clear WP:COMPETENCY issues going on, and in fact do not understand WP (i.e. policy & guidelines). Mostly the text you write is incomprehensible, perhaps your command of English is poor. You should cease your WP:Edit warring, your non-discussion, your destructive edits, and your WP:OR additions, and start to express yourself at the article Talk. Else I'll take further steps to stop what you have been doing. Perhaps you need a WP:Mentor, please look into it. Sincere, Ihardlythinkso (talk) 10:43, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed your cards and equipment methods as they were completely incomprehensible. (Why have you continued to radically change those sections repeatedly, creating the incomprehensible last versions? The article is not your WP:Sandbox or personal WP:OR "work area"/"scratch-pad". You need to regroup and produce a consistent result rather than what you have been doing, and forget about linking to your own blogsite. A reasonable cards and other equipment procedure would be tolerated -- at least by me -- but not the constant radical revisions you have made leading to totally incomprehensible results.) As above I think you do not understand the aims of Wikpedia, and you need to regroup and find a mentor for assistance. If you edit-war then I'll take extra measures as already mentioned. Good luck.

Information icon Hello, I'm Ihardlythinkso. I noticed that you recently removed some content without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry: I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

Hello Calmapalma,

It seems to me that an article you worked on, Ramdom starting position in chess, may be copied from http://users.otenet.gr/~coolpalm/chess_random_starting_position_uk.htm. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about copying from other sites.

It's important that you edit the article and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at the help desk who are happy to assist you.

Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 19:52, 1 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Ramdom starting position in chess requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://users.otenet.gr/~coolpalm/chess_random_starting_position_uk.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —Largo Plazo (talk) 20:02, 1 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Where does Scheveningen system for 6 players come from

[edit]

I see that table for 6 players changed in 2018. The old table was equal to FIDE's standard tables, bet I see that the new table is better. The heading is Standard tables, so who has the standard? Just now I work with Scheveningen system for Commission of System and Pairings, and this contribution is very important. Otto Milvang (talk) 13:12, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
