American vs. British spellings & improper page moves

[edit]

Hi there. I've noticed you've been moving certain articles (e.g. color and fiber) from their original locations to their respective British variants without there being a real need for the change. Wikipedia is an international project, so both American and British English are tolerated here: I invite you to puruse the relevant Manual of Style guideline at Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Usage and spelling. Changing such spellings tends to invoke hard feelings needlessly (not that there are any in this instance). While I can understand if you think what you're doing is "correct" (being a Canadian myself), your methods are improper.

Firstly, please see Wikipedia:How to move a page. You've been moving articles via copy/paste, which destroys a page's edit history: This is not only a bad thing when our license is considered, but it's inconsiderate of other users. Such moves will be reversed. Secondly, and just as important from a wikiquette point of view, is your lack of discussion prior to moving the articles. You should propose the moves on the articles' respective talk pages (e.g. Talk:Color) before moving them, allowing a reasonable time period for discussion. I must ask you not to make such undiscussed, improper page moves in the future. Thanks for your consideration. -- Hadal 08:41, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Regarding your spelling changes on resistor: Note that you should only change spelling variants in order to make a page consistent with itself. If that's what you're doing, say so in the edit summary. - Omegatron 22:49, Mar 23, 2005 (UTC)

Metric and Imperial/US measurements

[edit]

Wikipedia policy is that we never replace one system of measurement by another, as you did at Sport utility vehicle. We instead add conversions. The original system of measurement used is generally given first, with conversions in parentheses afterwards. In this case, the US laws in question state their requirements in US measurements, so removing them and replacing them with metric is completely inappropriate.

Please do not remove comments from your user talk page without responding to them. Wikipedia is a collaborative effort; please show good faith in cooperating with other users. —Morven 01:16, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I am still a bit new to this. Didn't mean to be arrogant. After all, this is communism and I am a communist. Sorry again. --Zippanova 02:21, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit]

WikiProject Albums's Style section states Do not use piped links to "years in music" e.g. 1991, instead add (see 1991 in music) where you feel it is appropriate. Please don't change the album pages to do this. Thanks! grendel|khan 01:53, 2005 May 2 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice. --Zippanova 02:55, 2 May 2005 (UTC)

Faux British Spellings

[edit]

As you know, the British/Canadian/Australian versions of plenty of words end in -our rather than the American -or. However, even many native speakers of British English get things wrong when the word is modified — for about half of the -our endings, it should properly revert to the -or form when modified. To make this absolutely clear, this is NOT a America vs. Britain/Commonwealth distinction - in these cases, the -our form is always wrong — consult the OED. Examples as follows:

  • arbour, but arbourist -> arborist, arbouretum -> arboretum
  • clamour, but clamourous -> clamorous
  • clangour, but clangourous -> clangorous
  • colour, but colouration -> coloration
  • glamour, but glamourous -> glamorous, glamourless -> glamorless, glamourize -> glamorize, glamourise -> glamorise
  • honour, but honourary -> honorary, honourarium -> honorarium, honourific -> honorific
  • humour, but humourist -> humorist, humourous -> humorous
  • labour, but labourious -> laborious
  • odour, but odourous -> odorous, odouriferous -> odoriferous
  • rancour, but rancourous -> rancorous
  • rigour, but rigourous -> rigorous
  • tumour, but tumourous -> tumorous

Oh, haha...wow. I did not know that one. Thanks. --Zippanova 15:28, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

C-Train

[edit]

In the future, please avoid blatent POV statements. Also, you should think about this: Calgary's C-Train has only 1/3 less track than Toronto's subway (about 20km shy) which serves a metropolitan area 5 times Calgary's size. The C-Train also has one of the highest per capita riderships of any rapid transit system in Canada. All Canadian transit systems are inadequate by, say, European standards but uh, that's just my POV. It also might be worth noting that most of the people who complain about CT live in new suburbs which have inanely low population densities. Does it really make sense to expand a train to serve 25 people (give or take)? Once the city completes its next train order, there will be one train every 3 minutes at peak... but I suppose that's simply too inadequate for a city of a million. - Tyson2k 05:58, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I agree. It was very POV. Maybe I'll do some research on that and offer some external links (both pro and con) in the article. --Zippanova 14:17, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

why do you remove this part

[edit]

Hello sir

Many found reason to doubt these motives in the words of Israeli Lt. General Dan Halutz who threatened to "turn Lebanon's clock back 20 years."[3] in a reference to the destruction Lebanon suffered in it's bloody civil war--Sa.vakilian 07:57, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:2006_Israel-Lebanon_conflict"

I'm sorry, but you are mistaken. My edits never removed that sentence or any part of it. You might want examine the edit history again (look in particular at adjacent edits) to find your culprit. As for the talk page which you referenced, I have never edited that. Cheers.

Ski-doo

[edit]

not that the deletion of the portion pertaining 23 skidoo was incorrect, on the contrary, but i was wondering where you got the information about the 'sea-dog.' it was my understanding that first came the 'sea-doo' and the 'ski-doo' was a natural transition to a newer product. still, yours was a good edit. The undertow 09:35, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is a special on CBC here in Canada about the 50 greatest Canadian inventions and they mentioned it as a spelling mistake. I've also heard this before somewhere else a few years ago but can't remember where. I'll look for more evidence online although I don't have any site references right now

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:I Am the Bloody Earth album cover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:28, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image source problem with Image:ABBA-logo.svg

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:ABBA-logo.svg. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:12, 6 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Hi, you left me a note awhile ago. I've been looking for a source forever of the train that went from Anderson to 162nd Ave station and here it is with photos. [1] --Þadius (talk) 12:12, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Template:Der Ring des Nibelungen requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it must be substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{substituted}}</noinclude>).

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Bulwersator (talk) 07:45, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Calgary community moves

FYI regarding the move of Evergreen, Calgary to Evergreen Estates. I'm guessing there is inconsistency at the City of Calgary about the official name of the community, but it appears that "Evergreen" is correct.

Also, with your recent move of MacEwan, Calgary to MacEwan Glen, was it your original intent to move it to MacEwan Glen, Calgary, except that the previously established redirect got in the way? Hwy43 (talk) 17:40, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
