The edit that you just reverted (my edit to Lesions) was legitimate. The page had repeating sections, as I detailed in the edit summary. Szafraki (talk) 01:15, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Y OK. Sorry. --Jake Wartenberg^Talk 04:05, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Did I do anything wrong? Do you need more info on this matter?

Just a source for that information. Cheers, Jake Wartenberg^Talk 02:41, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Obama

why would you think me putting Obama's name is vandalizing? the youtube link i put is a video of him saying he is a member. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.202.41.151 (talk) 02:27, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

You need to add the link a source. --Jake Wartenberg^Talk 02:41, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Roberta Baskin

Thank you for speaking up. I am involved in an editing war. I am a former professional colleague of Roberta Baskin and someone is out to trash her. This is particularly serious as she is job searching and the wikipedia entry that is being posted is inflammatory. This other person does not listen to reason and judging by his history (he's been out to trash her for several months) he's been warned and sanctioned by wikipedia before. I am all for third party mediation. Please tell me how to proceed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Waldoggy (talk • contribs) 03:04, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Roberta Baskin

By the way, I have been trying for days to figure out how to contact wikipedia to enlist some third-person intervention. I am glad you stepped in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Waldoggy (talk • contribs) 03:10, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

I object to the reference of WJLA-TV as a "Gotcha" journalism group. WJLA has no association with the referred to defamation lawsuit referred that was filed, and then withdrawn, in 1994. That is a slanderous allegation against WJLA-TV which is a respected news organization in Washington DC. Where do the quotation marks around "Gotcha" come from?--Waldoggy (talk) 03:44, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Care in reversions

Unfortunately, in this edit, in which you apparently thought you were reverting the addition of dubious material, you were actually putting that (false) material back into the article. Michael Hardy (talk) 14:48, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Oops! I thought I was removing that material. Things are so chaotic around here right now... Cheers, Jake Wartenberg^Talk 17:41, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Comments on social liberalism discussion page

hello you have taken away my comments on social liberalism as you deem them unconstructive I think I have raised some very valid points that are clearly articulated, I will post them below and unless you can explain what you think is wrong with them I think its unfair you delete them

best regards

Chris

Contradictions

This page seems riddled with contradictions,

It states that "social liberalism"'s economic foundations were laid by John Maynard Keynes But that social liberals are opposed to free trade an globalisation. How can those two statements be reconciled?

Keynesian economics are strongly in favour of free trade

Keynesian and classical economics are essentially the same when it comes to macro-economics but differ on micro-economics —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.54.106.121 (talk) 19:31, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Classical liberals???

"Classical liberals such as Robert Nozick, Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich Hayek"

Surely these people are considered libertarians, more than classical liberals?

There are key differences between classical liberals and libertarians a classical liberal would support government ownership of roads paid for by taxes a libertarian would support private roads paid for by tolls

John Stuart Mills, a social liberal?

His "Principles of Political Economy" is the definitive text on classical economics. This is a man who considered progressive taxation slightly immoral. Even Adam Smith the exalted high guru of capitalism supported progressive taxation.

Oxford Manifesto and the Liberal international

There is absolutely no mention here of how this movement fits in with the Liberal International or the Oxford Manifesto. Certainly the opposition of social liberals to free trade would be add odds with both the liberal manifesto of 1948 and the liberal international.

Margaret Thatcher

The article states that social liberals are against the neoliberal policies of Margaret Thatcher. Margret Thatcher's policies involved the privatisation of utilities, transport and communications.

This is entirely in keeping with article II section 1 of the liberal manifesto

"The suppression of economic freedom must lead to the disappearance of political freedom. We oppose such suppression, whether brought about by State ownership or control or by private monopolies, cartels and trusts. We admit State ownership only for those undertakings which are beyond the scope of private enterprise or in which competition no longer plays its part"

Social democrats-Social liberals

Surely the deciding factor here must be state control of industry? Anyone who believes in state control of industry is not a liberal

There were a few issues with all the horizontal lines, but I probably should not have reverted your edit. Sorry. Things have been pretty crazy around here. The version you reverted to is much better. I hope there are no worries now. Cheers, Jake Wartenberg^Talk 21:49, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Polygamy in US

Hi Jake. I disagree that my edit to the polygamy article was unconstructive. I deleted that section, because if you read it, it is basically a section listing several polygamists who have been arrested for sex with a minor. It has zero to do with polygamy in the US, which is the subject of the article. 163.1.146.123 (talk) 22:08, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Apologies. That should be in North America, not the US. 163.1.146.123 (talk) 22:09, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Should be fixed now. I don't know why I missed your edit summary. Cheers, Jake Wartenberg^Talk 13:13, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

That's okay, thanks. 163.1.146.123 (talk) 16:25, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

GJOKAJ headline

May you please delete the Gjokaj article. This person who keeps adding his own history is presenting with faulty information. His clan doesnt even come from the "TRIESHI" headline, which is where the Gjokaj headline is under. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gjokaja1 (talk • contribs) 22:14, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Please cease your vandalism. If you have a dispute with another editor, please see WP:DR. And note that only WP:ADMINS can delete pages. Cheers, Jake Wartenberg^Talk 22:22, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Blanked the page

Hiya! Just wanted to let you know that the "Blanked the page" edit I recently made was an unintentional error on my part. I only meant to delete my comments which had become irrelevant after I made a minor edit to the article; I didn't mean to delete the headers/tags. (Of course that's what you get with "select all", "delete" -- duh!)

I always go back and check my edits, but this time I guess the "bot" caught it before I did. Not a newbie but by no means a Wiki expert, I get a little annoyed when I get the "dummy" treatment: use the sandbox, etc. But certainly not your fault! (And yes I do use "preview" before "save", but everyone slips up now and again, especially when rushed.)

Thanks for your dedication Wikipedia! I doubt I'll ever become an administrator — too many obstinate knuckleheads out there which I simply do not have the patience for. :)

Cheers!, Rico402 (talk) 23:30, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. Happy editing! --Jake Wartenberg^Talk 23:41, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Admiring Your Userpage

I don't know exactly why I stumbled across your userpage, but I feel compelled to tell you that it's pretty fantastic. I love the "Do something useful" part. Very cool. FaerieInGrey (talk) 06:33, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

WP:TRIVIA

Regarding your reversion to Bird strike, you may wish to double check WP:TRIVIA, Whilst i am aware that this is contentious policy (I am editing logged out from my user account, as I mainly work on technical articles), lists of trivia such as references to indiana jones, a comedian's stand up routine and a probably fictional japanese dish, are not adding to the article in any way, and are trivia that cannot be integrated into the article in a meaningful manner.

Not all IP edits are vandalism :) (I believe its about 7%, see the straw poll page on your watchlist) 121.44.110.200 (talk) 13:41, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

What you removed is not a trivia section. While I agree that it would be nice if there were sources, I don't think that is reason to remove the section, only to improve it. What do you think? Cheers, Jake Wartenberg^Talk 13:47, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I believe that essay is about articles that are about popular culture, and not articles that are about physical phenomena, and as such does not apply directly in this situation. An article entitled "Bird strikes in popular culture" would surely fail notability. I still hold with my first comment. 121.44.110.200 (talk) 13:52, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism?

My post regarding Malphas constitutes vandalism you say? Your words constitute discrimination. In what way is the truth "vandalism"? Nothing i said was in discrimination of anything, or in any way offensive to anyone. I am simply putting out the truth for people to see. Is this what you are afraid of perhaps? If you think i am wrong, do you have proof that what you are saying is right?
