User Page

[edit]

I have no life so I went through your user page and found this:{{Statustop|link=User:Flewis/Status|offset=40}} {{User:Flewis/Page}} between all the <!--Flewis-->s Ŵïllî§ï$2? (Talk!/Sign) 14:57, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I reference all of my edits, if I have information without a reference then I post it in discussion and leave it to someone to post. Maybe you should stay away from pages about things that you are very biased about. I assume you are referring to my edit on Varg Vikernes' page where I posted a quote from "Lords of Chaos" about Vikernes' superficial Nazi-based ideology. It was referenced plain and clear. Just because you sympathize with this person does not mean you have the right to not only omit correct information, but also attack me for being "libelous". Your type is the kind that has turned Wikipedia into a useless resource that is literally forbidden from being referenced in academia unless it is to point out just how much misinformation is around on this website. Leave me alone and stop lying about me. Swallow the truth. Fermentor (talk) 06:52, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:Slashandwife.jpg

[edit]
Replaceable fair use
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Slashandwife.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Guy0307 (talk) 11:43, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sikh Extremism and the terrorist apologists

[edit]

Hi, I have been trying to improve the article on Sikh Extremism, unfortunately I have come across some very aggressive editing and even heavy deletions from certain people who wish to not have this article on Wikipedia. I don't know if you remember, me Satanoid, I lost my password, so log in as Morbid Fairy. I have had a campaign to ban me by the sikh-extremist fringe i.e from those who wish to have the article removed. The two users watering down the article are mainly Sineed and to some extent Sikh-History (who has already had one warning recently).

The same old excuses are being used, that all the media is biased against terrorists and after the recent murder and attacks reported in the Austrian Times in Vienna, some seem to want to brush this under the carpet. I hope you can help on this article as you kindly did so before, thank you Morbid Fairy (talk) 16:38, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Morbid Fairy aka Satanoid see here , you have been previously reprimanded for this type of behaviour under the Satanoid account and on your WPOuting violation here. People are assuming Good Faith on your new account so I suggest you do the same. Your behaviour towards Sineed is very bad.--Sikh-history (talk) 19:34, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting my correct edit

[edit]

This is what you said:

> The recent edit you made to Yoga has been reverted, > as it introduced negative or controversial biographical > material without providing a reliable source for this information. > Wikipedia requires that all such material be sourced to address > the issue of libel. Thank you. Flewis(talk) 08:46, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Its been year since I logged in. Hmm... so you say, I don't have any reliable source for the information that correct term is Yog rather than Yoga. Oh.. my dear, when you talk about Hindi language, you should ask a man who speaks Hindi no to them man who speaks English or Chinese.

Source is me, I live in Punjab (INDIA) and I speak that language. Most Indians speak Hinglish language, which is neither proper Hindi nor proper English. I speak either Hindi or English or Punjabi(mother-tongue) but not Hinglish. I don't know what kind of reliable source you want but if you are looking for one, there is man named Swami Ramdev, the supreme authority on Yog. He has TV program where he gives free answers to people's health problem, perhaps you can listen to pronunciation used in that program and decide yourself.

Thanks for uploading File:Sampi 2004mark.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:31, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Might I pick your brain please?

[edit]

Hi,

Are you still interested in the idea of at least some non-admins being able to view deleted pages? I understand that the proposal was shot down previously by foundation counsel; however I believe I have at least two possible answers to their concerns.

One possibility is to make this prospective (apparently the antonynm of retrospective although I'm not so sure) - that is to say that only edits deleted after its implementation can be viewed. For revisions such as libelous edits or copyright violations and so on, there can be a hard delete, lying some way between this soft delete and oversight, which will function just like a present deletion. Admins could also have the power to toggle a deletion from hard to soft (or to undelete) - so selected deletions made before this feature is implemented could be made soft.

The second possibility is to introduce a procedure somewhat like RFA where users are given permission to view deleted edits by the community. As admin privileges are currently granted not just based on trust in general, but also on trust that the tools will be used appropriately, there is a much greater pool of users who would be eligible to be given this permission.

And of course, it is perfectly possible to use both of these systems at once.

I have cross posted this to a few users who were active in the discussion in 2008 - I don't feel this is a violation of CANVASS because I have not made the proposal myself - the reality is I need an experienced Wikipedia with some "street cred" to make it. I already attempted to steer a discussion of a similar proposal this way, but sadly that discussion is irretrievable (see here - or even better, don't!). Because I have posted this to a few users, I would be greatful if you would reply at User_talk:Egg Centric/Proposal and perhaps we can get a discussion going!

Thank you!
