Thanks for the welcome Thinker78. My apologies for this late reply. I am only able to able to explore the community, talk pages and noticeboards recently. The wikimarkups was initially daunting and I also thought your message was automated :). Anyway, the resources you posted were very helpful since I could just open my Talk page and find the links. The sheer amount of info for editors could be quite overwhelming.Darwin Naz (talk) 01:44, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to collaborate

[edit]

Hello, my name is Yousif Kassab. I'm hoping to collaborate with you on the Heracles article. How do you suggest working together, or do you have any recommendations for where to start?TrueNeutral14 (talk) 23:24, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi TrueNeutral14. It's nice to hear from you. I think that you could choose to expand one or some of the entries under the Further Adventures, Other Adventures subsections.Darwin Naz (talk) 05:05, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your recent edits there. It seems you have access to some decent academic material on relevant subjects. I encourage you to keep contributing, to that article or others of your choice. If you do keep improving Goddess movement, you may wish to remove some of the warning templates at the top of the page, once you think they are no longer needed. There are complaints on the article talk page going back a decade, but not much real work for years, so your contributions make a difference - thank you. Carbon Caryatid (talk) 08:43, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot Carbon Caryatid (talk). I appreciate the good word. I will take a look a closer look at Goddess movement whenever I have time and contribute as much as I can.
Great! And as you're finding your way around Wikipedia, don't be afraid to ask for help - from me, or the Teahouse, or on talk pages and project pages. I'll give you a gentle reminder to sign your posts with four tildes ~. Carbon Caryatid (talk) 19:42, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I will do that. I am actually learning more about using this Talk feature and the norms entailed in my conversations with other users like you. Noted on the tildes. Thanks! Darwin Naz (talk) 22:07, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It is a pleasure to mentor new editors who, such as yourself, indicate a desire to learn community norms, and contribute positively to the encyclopedia.

References

[edit]

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Jytdog (talk) 06:07, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I will definitely send you a message if I have a question or need assistance. Also, thank you for taking time listing those resources. They will be very helpful. Darwin Naz (talk) 13:16, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edit to Aesthetic Realism Lead

[edit]

Hi, Darwin Naz.  

Regarding your edit to the Aesthetic Realism lead, Aesthetic Realism does not hold “that happiness can be attained through a unity or harmony of the opposites such as the acceptance that the world is both beautiful and horrific.”  Perhaps you wanted to simplify the lead by summarizing the study in one sentence, but this source misrepresents it.

The Concise Guide to Today's Religions and Spirituality is the publication of a right-wing religious group called Watchman Fellowship (based in Texas) whose mission is to convert adherents of what they call cults  (defined as “mediators between you and God”) "to true Christianity."  Any religion or movement that doesn't embrace the Walker Fundamentalist interpretation of scripture is listed as a cult including Roman Catholicism, Judaism, Buddhism, Islam, Taoism, the Baha'i Faith, Native American religions, and on and on and on.  It is hardly a scholarly work, and it is not part of mainstream Christianity but advances a prejudicial point of view that is far to the right and highly distorted.   Walker, in a sloppy way, equates Aesthetic Realism with Taoism simply because it talks about opposites.

Aesthetic Realism is a very careful, wide, educational philosophy founded in 1941 and it is grounded in scholarship of the world’s literature, history, and art.

If the goal was to make the lead description shorter, maybe you could replace the Walker description with Eli Siegel’s description of the philosophy as "the art of liking the world and oneself at the same time, by seeing the world and oneself as aesthetic opposites.” (Using the NYT source you quoted).  

At any rate, we need to take out the Walker sentences asap as not being a reliable source. I would suggest reverting the lead back to the way it was and perhaps adding the NYT quote as a summarizing sentence.  This would provide a fuller and more accurate description of the philosophy. Nathan43 (talk) 16:32, 27 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Nathan43. You seem to be very knowledgeable on the subject. Feel free to make changes to any of the edits made so that the article can be improved further. Best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 21:52, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Darwin Naz. I'm reverting now. Nathan43 (talk) 22:30, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Miss Virginia (film) for deletion

[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Miss Virginia (film) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Miss Virginia (film) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. —0xf8e8 (talk) 02:21, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Emotive Internet moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Emotive Internet, does not have proper sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). Specifically, this article is using a neologism, which is not explicitly referred to in the citations. See WP:NEOLOGISM for information on what such a page requires.

I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Citrivescence (talk) 02:42, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

adverse experiences definitely deter future participation.

[edit]

i seldom edit articles anymore since i think every one has been reverted destroying hundreds of hours of work... POOF up in smoke with a couple mouse clicks by arrogant ASSHOLES ...

I even stopped participating in editing workshops, so the community has definitely lost a good editor because they ignore the harm of arrogant elitist editors --Qazwiz (talk) 17:53, 31 January 2019 (UTC) to be clear, i'm not saying my contributions were perfect, far from it, i expected editing of the material... but i defy you to find somewhere that a contribution by me had an attempt of improvement before some heavy handed revert eleminated my thoughtful typing. which by the way takes me twice as long as most since i don't usually use a regular keyboard --Qazwiz (talk) 17:59, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Qazwiz. That is true. Some forget that this is a crowdsourced platform and an article is supposed to be a collaborative effort. There are also so many rules that an editor could invoke and some of them are vague and even conflicting, so discussions tend to be overly protracted. Unfortunately, I do not see any way to get around it because reverts and deletions are also part of crowdsourced nature of Wikipedia. You can contest artbitrary reverts and deletions and seek consensus. But then, as I cited, it would involve another lengthy process, something one whose work is being questioned would have no drive to pursue. So what I can probably suggest is to be patient :) and, again, you should know that there are editors who understand your frustrations. I, for one, could promise a level-headed/objective help whenever I can. Regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 23:28, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Content you added to the above article appears to have been copied from http://milproj.dc.umich.edu/pdfs/2014/Glion%20Summary.pdf, which is not released under a compatible license. Copying text directly from a source is a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy. Unfortunately, for copyright reasons, the content had to be removed. Content you add to Wikipedia should be written in your own words. Please leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:16, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Presently, I cannot compare my revision to your edit so I could not check the part you said was copied from that PDF source. I think I did use content from that document but sourced it accordingly. I believe that is how you came across that link in the first place. I understand the need to write in my own words but quotes are also allowed as reflected in this entry I added "universities exist to liberate the unlimited creativity of the human species and to celebrate the unbounded resilience of the human spirit," which is now listed under your edit. Also, I did not know that the previously cited PDF source does not have a compatible copyright license or how such license is determined. Darwin Naz (talk) 22:37, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your addition of information from a self published source has been removed.

TheFamousPeople.com as a source

[edit]

Hi Darwin Naz. I noticed that you recently used thefamouspeople.com as a source for biographical information in Leland Chapman. Please note that there is general consensus that thefamouspeople.com does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for such information. (Discussions here and here). AllStarBio.com seems much worse. If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks. --Ronz (talk) 16:00, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have undone your cut-and-paste page move

[edit]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Seth and Mary Eastman a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Seth Eastman. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 10:56, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Diannaa. If you have taken a look at the Talk page of the Seth Eastman article, you would have found that I am not trying to give the Seth and Mary Eastman a different title. I am also not trying to move it to another page by copying and pasting. I am trying to create a separate article for Mary Henderson Eastman in response to a request at the Women in Red Project. I, myself, believe that Mary Eastman deserves her own article. I am, however, unsure about the split in history you mentioned or if it is relevant to what I am trying to do. This is a bit complex because there are three pages involved as I create Mary Eastman's page: Seth and Mary Eastman, Seth Eastman (redirect), and Mary Henderson Eastman (current draft). Since you have reverted the edit, I am now at a loss on how to proceed. Darwin Naz (talk) 11:12, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The point is that when moving a page, you have to use the move function, so that the page history remains with the relevant text. This is because a list of contributors is required under the terms of our license, and the page history is where the contributor list is located. I will move the page properly for you now.— Diannaa (talk) 11:21, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Move complete. There's redirects for Mary Eastman at Mary Henderson Eastman and Mary H. Eastman. These will need to be changed once your new article is live. Mary Eastman currently redirects to Eastman (surname). You will need an administrator to properly move your draft once it is ready for mainspace.— Diannaa (talk) 11:28, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs

[edit]

Thank you for your recent articles, including Eugénie Ginsberg, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. This can be also done through this helpful user script: User:SD0001/DYK-helper. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:57, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus. Thank you very much for the good words! Four of my articles were featured in the Did You Know section already. The most recent two of these were self-nominated. Given the total, I am already expected to review other DYK entries, so that was what I was doing when the Eugénie Ginsberg article was completed. The script you mentioned was new to me and I have installed it. You will definitely receive a message from me if I would need a hand. :) Best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 22:47, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

miniaturization

[edit]

Dear Darwin Naz,

In the miniaturization article, one edit mentions "the comparative ease in miniaturizing electrons". My understanding (from skimming over classical electron radius) is that it's completely impossible to miniaturize electrons. My understanding is that even measuring the size of electrons is very difficult. So I am *very* interested in any process for miniaturizing electrons, whether it is easy or not.

What process can miniaturize electrons? --DavidCary (talk) 15:57, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, DavidCary. It should be "electrical devices" not "electrons". This part has been edited accordingly. Regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 21:53, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Analytical Psychology - request please

[edit]

Hello Darwin, when you have time, would you mind looking over my translation from the French version of the topic, please. I have been going at it and will have made English errors I fail to see. I am fairly confident about the accuracy of the translation, as this is my field and I am bi-lingual. Here and there I have gone off-piste, updating and adding as the French version has dated. Many thanks!--Po Mieczu (talk) 15:12, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Po Mieczu! I have taken a look at the changes that you have made on the Analytical psychology page. They are quite numerous. The succession of edits - including those made by other editors - would make going over your translation work challenging. However, I can identify bulk additions you have made and I think that is where I could check. At this point, the most important thing for me is whether the added contents included their sources. If an unsourced information is widely documented, I might be able to help with referencing. If you can send me the link of the French page, it would also be appreciated. Best regards, (talk) 23:39, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you, Darwin Naz, for your response. The French version is this: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychologie_analytique I have replaced French references with English language ones where available, including page numbers, as I have many of the sources. It takes hours, as you know. However the entry is too important to be left as was. Any help is gratefully received. Kind regards, --Po Mieczu (talk) 00:25, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, you added some welcome sources to this one. For consistency can you ammend the Spencer encylopedia reference to match the others, e.g. The Murray Crusades examples. Particularly, adding the author of the entry, and the entries name. I don't have access to this work otherwise I would have done it. Hopefully you'll feel like doing some more on this article. It needs a fresh pair of eyes. Norfolkbigfish (talk) 11:36, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Norfolkbigfish for the good word. I also have amended the reference format. It took me a bit of time to do this. See, when I do my editing I usually use the Visual Editor interface and reference using its Cite option. I had to learn the coding part of the sfn template and how it relates to the Biography. Kindly go over the changes and let me know if there is something I missed. Regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 00:20, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Np, DN. I tweaked the Hurlock & Mayer ones, have a look. Mayer I just added the JSTOR location. With the Hurlock one, Murray is the source, Hurlock is the editor. So added Murray & the chapter name. What do you think? Norfolkbigfish (talk) 14:45, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Forgot to add, is it possible for you to follow what I did on Hurlock/Murray for the Tucker one. I don't have access but would guess the entries have authors and the chapter is the entry name. Norfolkbigfish (talk) 14:48, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The Tucker source is more like an encyclopedia and not an anthology of works. There is an Outremer section but it does not constitute a chapter nor bylined by an author. Darwin Naz (talk) 00:34, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I was guessing, looks like I guessed incorrectly. Thanks Norfolkbigfish (talk) 09:00, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. Thanks for your help. Regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 22:09, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Olga Petit

[edit]

Hi. Nice article. But please see Wikipedia:Writing about women. The policy is not to use first names. It is, rightly I think, seen as being sexist because men are invariably referred to by their surnames. Roundtheworld (talk) 09:48, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Roundtheworld. Thank you for the good words. Regarding Olga Petit's first name use: I do also use surnames for articles I wrote with female subjects (e.g. . However, in this case, I decided to use Olga to distinguish her from her husband. When talking about them, it would have been confusing to refer to both as Petit in the same paragraph. Nonetheless, I will try to look into the article and see if I can find a way around it. Darwin Naz (talk) 23:16, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Revision needed

[edit]

Would you review your edit to Sakuradamon Incident (1860), as I can't figure out what you meant to say in the sentence beginning "An account ..." Shenme (talk) 01:59, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Shenme, this edit has been made for some time already and I had to retrieve my source for this reply. Now, the "account" you mentioned should be clear if you are treating it not as a standalone sentence but approached in relation to the entire paragraph and the section itself, which is all about the consequences of the incident. Note that it specifically supports the preceding sentence, which described the ensuing violence of the Sonnō Jōi. The sentence merely states how Sakuradamon led to the resurgence of the warrior spirit (Jansen, p.295). This pertains to the Bushido or to the cult of the warrior, which had deteriorated prior to the incident. You can say that Sonnō Jōi was the immediate consequence while the resurgence of the Japanese warrior spirit (characterized by violence), as a long-term consequence.

Article assessment

[edit]

Hi, I'm looking to understand how to improve the articles I create; you recently assessed Anthony Maitland, 10th Earl of Lauderdale as start-class, and I was hoping you'd be able to provide some pointers as to why it was assessed as such? Many thanks, Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 20:43, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The previous rating was assessed using Rater, which confirmed the previous assesment. Anthony Maitland, 10th Earl of Lauderdale is a B-class article. If you want to improve the pages you create and target a specific assessment class, you can make changes according to its outlined criteria. For instance, if you want it listed as a good article, then you must satisfy these requirements. Darwin Naz (talk) 21:46, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 00:02, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there - this change of yours, specifically to citation formatting/coding, has resulted in multiple errors in the referencing. I am not sure of your intent. (On my quick glance so i could have missed something), it appears that citations were working before your edit, but are now broken. This question here on your talk page is not about your content changes (I have commented on those in my edit summary), but rather about your intent with citation coding. --Merbabu (talk) 00:13, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

PS - I've subsequently decided to rollback your reference changes. Where 1 source is used multiple times, it should be done per WP:REFNAME and my partial rollback returns the citations to that format. --Merbabu (talk) 00:27, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Merbabu (talk). That's fine. Maybe it's a glitch. The sources I added only included those infos in my additions (Mahidi) to the Indonesian era section. Feel free to revert any other changes that were made elsewhere. Thanks for notifying me. Best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 00:33, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Narses

[edit]

Hi,

Thanks for the recent edits at Narses (comes)

There are two Narses's, both were Armenians in service of the Byzantines and lived around the same time and fought alongside Belisarius. The more famous one was Narses the Eunuch who was also the Grand Chamberlain.

The materials you added are mostly about Narses the Eunuch. I assume they are already covered in the article Narses, so I remove those. --Z 08:36, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, noted. That explained why I thought there were inconsistencies in the date of the subject's death. Best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 08:53, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Darwin Naz

Thank you for creating Mario Dal Pra.

User:Scope creep, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Could do with an image for the infobox, if one is available. Good article.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Scope creep}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

scope_creepTalk 18:17, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Scope creep: Thanks for your interest! Regarding your comment about the need for an image, I can't find any file at Wikimedia Commons. I also do not have access to a photograph that I can upload there. Best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 23:26, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Darwin Naz:, I think you can upload one that is fair use as the man is dead. All you do is select the file upload, fair use. Select "This is a copyrighted, non-free work, but I believe it is Fair Use." and select "This is a historical portrait of a person no longer alive." and fill in all the fields. This image from here: Mario Dal Pra looks quite decent. There is a colour but it is a bit blurry. Have a go at that, and see what it looks like in the infobox. This one is not bad Mario Dal Pra. Either one would do. Hope that helps. scope_creepTalk 08:28, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Scope creep: Thank you for the information. It is very helpful to me as I often write bio articles. Best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 23:14, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please help: Libelous content

[edit]

I see you are a member of WikiProject for Companies. I thought you might assist in an urgent matter. The section Digital Currency Group#Allegations of lending malfeasance is libelous, poorly sourced and needs to be removed. It is based on a Medium blog by an anonymous non-expert with 100 followers, which by itself is an unacceptable source according to WP:RSSELF. Medium is a platform similar to WordPress or Tumblr - while some editorial sites use it, in this case the blogger is anonymous and states in the article they relied on their own original research, and that the article was written as “speculation” based on primary sources they interpreted, thus failing WP:RELIABLE. I have a COI as a paid consultant for DCG and don’t want to violate WP:COI, which is why I am reaching out to related project members? Thanks much.CertifiedTurtle (talk) 16:21, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Darwin Naz,

If you move a page from main space to Draft space, please tag the original page for speedy deletion, CSD R2. This helps admins spot these pages to delete them as cross-namespace redirects. This tagging is easily done if you make use of Twinkle. If you expect to be draftifying articles, I encourage you to install script User:Evad37/MoveToDraft which makes the process very simple and also posts a notification on the talk page of the page creator. Thank you! Liz Read! Talk! 02:23, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Liz. Sorry about that. Does this mean that when I move from article to draft, it creates a redirect? I have done this draftifying thing once and this is only for this particular article, which I created. I just moved the draft to mainspace. It seems there was no redirect.

Thank you for creating the only thing is you say she got her masters degree from SUNY but you don’t say which campus. There are easily 15 campuses amd with no source …. Can you please update that part of the artoLr? BostonMensa (talk) 02:00, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I cannot find any source that specifically cite the college she went to. The available sources, some of them, I am unable to use (e.g. Ms. Small's Linkedin profile and a Wordpress article) merely cited that she completed the cited graduate courses from SUNY Buffalo. I have updated the sourcing for you as well as the sentence so that it only reflects what's in the cited source. We are, of course, open for contributions in case there are editors who have the info with better sources. Thanks and best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 10:26, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Darwin Naz, I noticed you're part of WP:Companies and interested in tech companies. I recently submitted an AfC for a company and thought you might be interested. Would you be open to reviewing the draft or providing feedback? Appreciate any help in advance.--Chefmikesf (talk) 23:08, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. A quick glance showed the content seems encyclopedic and you used third party references. Have it go through the process. I am unable to review since I am not familiar with the evaluation of articles with paid contributions tag. Best regards, Darwin Naz (talk) 23:18, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, I appreciate your feedback. I wonder why that Wikipedian added the paid tag; I declared my COI on the talk page and followed policy as closely as possible.

Lacaton & Vassal assessment

[edit]

Hi Darwin. Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that I am total disagreement with your assessment of the Lacaton & Vassal’s article as low importance. Crikey! They won the Pritzker prize! I did a quick and partial search, the only Pritzker Prize winner (out of 23) that I found with a low importance rating was a Portuguese architect, Álvaro Siza Vieira. Almost all were rated as Top or High Importance, with a few Mid Importance ratings sprinkled here and there. Could you please raise the importance rating? Dr Dobeaucoup (talk) 07:55, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again, Darwin. I just changed importance rating to Mid for the reasons described above. Hope this is okay with you. If not, feel free to change it back. It’s not really a big deal. Best. Dr Dobeaucoup (talk) 12:39, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fact checking one of your changes to Lacedaemonius article

[edit]

Greetings Darwin Naz.

Back in February 2021, you made a number of changes to the Lacedaemonius article. In particular you added that:

"Lacedaemonius was the son of Cimon, a pro-Sparta general and Athenian political figure, and Isodice who was the daughter of Euryptolemus, a cousin of Pericles. He was a grandson of the famous Miltiades IV. An accounted cited that he had a twin called Oulius. He was also the brother of Miltiades VII, who was the oikist in the Adriatic in 324".

I cannot see how Lacedaemonius could be the brother of Miltiades VII given that Lacedaemonius lived in the 430s BC and you say Miltiades VII was oikist in 324 BC. Now either I have misread the paragraph or there is a factual inconsistency in the paragraph. Could you please let me know if I've misunderstood the paragraph. Otherwise could you check your sources to work out what the correct dates or relationships are for that paragraph.

Thank you. Chewings72 (talk) 05:53, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Chewings72. Good catch there. It turns out there are two Cimons: Cimon II and Cimon IV. The former was the father of Lacedaemonius (see Debra Nails’ The People of Plato, p. 339). It was Cimon IV, an ambassador to Philip in 326, who fathered Miltiades VII, the oikist (Cheryl Anne Cox’s Household Interests, p. 157). This should explain the discrepancy. Lacedaemonius’ brother was called Miltiades V (Nails, p. 339). Best regards,
Thanks for clarifying the information. It all makes sense now. Chewings72 (talk) 12:20, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Prod reason:

Original research and synthesis. Yes, "spatial proximity" is central to geography and economics. Yes, special proximity is modulated by architects when they design buildings, and by urban planners when they alter cities. Yes, spatial proximity is important to user interface design and industrial design, and, yes, many books have been written on these topics. Yes, spatial proximity is studied by neuroscience (the so-called grid cells). Yes, in psychology and psychopathology, there is a concept of personal space. Not sure what gestalt has to do with it. This article is just a synthesis of these ideas; it only fails to mention that spatial proximity is important for quantum systems, and for the placement of satellites in orbit, to avoid e.g. the Kessler effect from excess spatial proximity. I do not see a path for converting this article into anything meaningful, beyond a dictionary definition.

Talk page banner shell class parameter

[edit]

Hello, just wanted to leave a note about the somewhat recent change to WP:PIQA. I see that you've been adding back in the class to the inherited templates after it was already added to the template shell on recent changes to Talk:John James Abert, but I don't think that's necessary anymore.
