Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Enid Gabriella Coleman has been reverted.
Your edit here to Enid Gabriella Coleman was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://twitter.com/BiellaColeman) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 12:01, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

From Jimbo's page

Sorry, but I'm not going to drag this out on Jimbo's page. I AGF'd that you might not know why your proposal wasn't workable, but it has been explained in great detail, and you show no sign of getting it.

I'm not writing words for you, I'm quoting you. You objected to the low level of participation in the recent Arbcom elections yet you haven't demonstrated, or even argued it is low. You've simply asserted it. You haven't provided any basis for measuring whether it is low or not, while I and others have, and find the claim wanting. Notwithstanding that your premise is not yet supported, you go on to propose a 'solution' that if enacted might wipe out the project. You dismiss this as a mere "legal issue" and go on to list several make-up excuses. I'm no longer taking you seriously. I expect relatively new editors (not a slam, just trying to find an excuse for your lack of knowledge) to make unfounded assertions, and propose unfeasible solutions, but when you persist even after being shown in error, then the excuse is no longer being uninformed, but something more fundamental. You said if Arbcom elections are a mess who steps in other than WMF?; I dispute they are a mess, but I answered anyway, and you show no evidence of reading my answer. If you cannot take the time to read what others write, I'll stop wasting my time.--S Philbrick(Talk) 00:10, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

I'm going to WP:AGF and ignore the personal attacks above ('you might not know why your proposal wasn't workable', 'you show no sign of getting it', etc) and reply where the discussion began.— Preceding unsigned comment added by AnonNep (talk • contribs)
It's not a personal attack, it's an observation. You're getting defensive instead of trying to understand.--v/r - TP 14:00, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for telling me how I'm thinking and feeling. Bye. AnonNep (talk) 15:14, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
Your feelings don't change what it was. It wasn't a personal attack. Your aggressiveness and defensiveness isn't helping to make your argument. The message your putting across is 'I'm right and if you disagree I'm going to get mad.' If that's how you collaborate with folks, you're on the wrong project.--v/r - TP 18:07, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
We'll just have to disagree, I guess. AnonNep (talk) 18:19, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
How on earth can "you might not know why your proposal wasn't workable" be called a "personal attack"? It's the exact opposite of a personal attack: it is accepting that you were probably acting in good faith because of a lack of knowledge, whereas insisting that you did know that it wasn't workable, but proposed it anyway, might have been considered to be a personal attack.

'Ownership' etc

Hi, Thanks for your comments on Talk:Landmark Worldwide, but I really do not think that much of the recent discussion there is helping to clarify steps to improve the article. Please respond to my comments here either in this thread or on my own talk page as you prefer.

Firstly as regards to your assertions that some (unnamed) editors are attempting to exert ownership over the article. Personally I cannot see that this is the case, but even if it were I stand by my suggestion that the issue should be taken up with the editor concerned rather than bandying about accusations on the article talk page. In any event, it is not helpful to make unspecified blanket accusations. If you do think anyone is attempting to own the article, please say who it is and what is your evidence.

As regards the NPOV tag, please say clearly what changes you feel need to be made to the article in order to justify its removal.

I do take exception to the suggestion that I am trying to “stifle debate” - on the contrary it seems to me that I have tried to make a clear statement of the issues and others have obfuscated rather than responding in a constructive manner. DaveApter (talk) 12:23, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Apology

Oh, "deer".
Sometimes, Fiona the Fawn gets confused. But just look at how adorable she is, despite any misunderstandings that arise in the forest. Who could stay angry at a face like that?

I sincerely regret the misunderstanding that occurred (which apparently stemmed from ambiguous wording on my part). I want to stress that I genuinely was perplexed as to the nature of the disagreement. (I don't want you to think that I was feigning ignorance or attempting to be difficult.)

Please accept this Fiona glamour shot as a token of goodwill. —David Levy 11:09, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Question

Hello. I don't understand the edit summary of this edit made by you. Did you mean to say "support" instead of "contradict"? "No source given to contradict wikilink" doesn't seem to be compatible with removing the wikilink. As to the appropriateness of the link, is there any other "Oxford Circuit" to which that expression could plausibly refer in that context? Best regards. James500 (talk) 22:51, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

I thought that the link was useful in that it identified that the Oxford circuit was a circuit of the judges of assize and not some other kind of circuit (something I assume the average reader will not know). I also assumed that the section of the article on circuits would eventually be expanded. In answer to your comments, I have added the geographical extent of the circuit to Assizes (something that isn't explained in the Tichbourne case article). To that there can be added a list of venues. And there are many other sources discussing the circuit, which I suspect may satisfy GNG and/or NGEO. Best regards. James500 (talk) 01:52, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
Big hint is that there's even a redirect. I expect there was a more expansive article at some point that was cut down. Well done for adding to it. All the best. AnonNep (talk) 01:57, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Landmark Worldwide and consensus

Hello! I noticed that you restored material with an edit summary that it is under discussion. What is probably not obvious, given the mess that the article and talk pages are, is that the material there (and elsewhere) never had consensus for inclusion. In fact, the material you restored is pretty much a merge from Werner Erhard after a RfM was closed as NOT to merge. Please take a look, I believe that you will find that the history shows that some editors have warred to include that material against consensus. Thank you, Tgeairn (talk) 19:52, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Prefer you didn't single me out for special treatment & replied on the Talk page where there is Arbcom oversight & the content discussion is ongoing. AnonNep (talk) 20:20, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Thanks, I saw your response there. My intent in coming here was certainly not to single you out. I intended to question a single edit, not the content per se. I apologize for the annoyance! Thanks, Tgeairn (talk) 20:35, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Guy Fawkes Night Australia

As Pod had deleted part of your edit to Guy Fawkes Night, these sources may be of interest I found them using a Google search of [Guy Fawkes site:au]

The various bans on Fireworks is at state level and introduced for two reasons (as you will see in these sources) a combination of health and safety and the risk of fire in a tinderbox which Australia can be at that time of year.

I will not edit the article myself as I do not think that would be constructive at the moment. BTW Guy Fawkes night is still widely celebrated in NZ with spectacular fireworks in Wellington and Auckland to try to encourage people not to hold their own parties (this may be in part a reaction of the Kiwis to show that they are not Australians as much as for any other reason (such as their climate is less dry)!). I have in the past posted link on the talk page of the article such as:

Also in the archive of the article is a section moved by PoD onto the talk page: (see Talk:Guy Fawkes Night/Archive 3#Global customs). You will find more upto date reliable sources such as the NZ Herald and the NZ Government with a Google search on [Guy Fawkes site:nz] such as government publications:

-- PBS (talk) 11:31, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

  • Thank you, good sources there! Including on NZ. I've left it (challenging PoD edits on my addition) for today as I just don't think they want anything about modern traditions (or much at all from older traditions that isn't from their favoured sources) and PoD's edits are a perfect example of that. I will follow these up (and do appreciate it!) but unless the ridiculous lock on that article ends I can't see the edits lasting long. I'm tending towards expanding 'Bonfire Night' as an alternative. AnonNep (talk) 11:55, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
I fully understand you hesitation. I do not think it a good idea to expand Bonfire night as it ought to be a dab page. The different bonfire traditions have nothing in common, it like having a page that describes the different shops on different streets called "High Street". It was a dab page and I think it needs to be one again. -- PBS (talk) 19:19, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
I can see that reasoning on Bonfire Night. But it is frustrating - unable to add anything much on the traditions and social history on the main page and nowhere else to put them. :/ AnonNep (talk) 04:43, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
(talk page stalker). In an ideal world, Bonfire Night should become a dab page. But we don't live in an ideal world, and until the Guy Fawkes Night article débacle is resolved I think it would be best to improve and expand the Bonfire Night page. Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:40, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Guy Fawkes Night

AnonNep, please drop the stick. You could argue that PoD's comment was somewhat off-topic, but at least it was about the subject of the article if only tangentially--the eye-rolling comment was not, and that comment was very uncivil. This continued edit warring does nothing for you and your cause. PBS pointed this out to me, for which I thank him. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 13:06, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

  • "You could argue that PoD's comment was somewhat off-topic" Yup. Hat the lot. I tried. Now, it may as well be left to show how selective it was. AnonNep (talk) 13:44, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
    • By "somewhat" I meant "not too much, in my opinion, though one could argue it was chatty" or words to that effect. Thank you for not continuing. Drmies (talk) 15:43, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

William of Malmesbury

Hi AnonNep. Please note that William of Malmesbury's ignorance of the poem is actually mentioned by Sarah Foot in her authoritative book Æthelstan: The First King of England; it is not my own work. See this link to page 182 on Google Books, near the top of the page. --Biblioworm 16:54, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

{NB. Created new section to respond at article talk page as issues had broader ramifications, especially WP:COI related to battle site (one possible location already has significant tourism - not historical support). It is important the battle page remains neutral despite existing aggressive commercial interests. AnonNep (talk) 17:45, 14 November 2015 (UTC)}

Hi AnonNep,

I'm not editing at the moment but thought I drop you a note. I am still watching various things including the developments at Battle of Brunanburh and have agreed with your views on it. Ordinarily I'd be right there supporting you. Unfortunately I happen to be one of those editors who likes EC very much, and am not here to help because at times like these I loose motivation to give my labour to WP. Given your comments at ArbCom I thought you should know. It's a funny old world. Trappedinburnley (talk) 20:20, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi Trappedinburnley,
I won't dive into all that either. I'll just say - thank you for your thoughts & for stopping by. It is a funny old world. I hope you, like many, edit again at some point. AnonNep (talk) 21:04, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:53, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sir Thomas Skipwith, 2nd Baronet, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George Booth. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

As promised

I've blocked you until you agree not to restore the harassment on Jimbo's talk page. --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:21, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

  • You provided no proof of harassment. You could have locked edits on the page, banned the editor who posted, removed the post so it could not have been reverted by anyone, you could have given edit summary reasons (as BLP deletes etc regularly have). Given that you provided no verifiable justification for your delete under Wikipedia rules I restored. Then you threatened/bullied me whilst once again offering no evidence to support your action. Your section title on this this speaks volumes in that regard. AnonNep (talk) 22:28, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
    • I did block the editor. I did give a reason in the edit summary. I do not need to convince everyone who watchlists Jimbo's talk page before my reverting harassment sticks. --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:34, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
      • You don't have to 'convince' everyone in edit summaries but you do need to follow the rules like everyone else. If you had evidence you could have chosen another option (such as deletion that was only viewable to other admins etc). You did not have the evidence so you threatened, bullied &, ultimately, indef banned me instead. AnonNep (talk) 22:56, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
        • It can still be harassment without meeting the strict requirements for revdel, so that option was not available to me. Instead, I removed the harassment, clearly identifying it as harassment, and you still restored it 3 times. You are not indef banned, you're indef blocked, which can be lifted as soon as you agree not to restore the harassment on Jimbo's talk page. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:05, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
          • Try and argue your way out any way you like but if it was BLP/immediate delete (which I support) you could have done so. You didn't. You left it to an edit summary that said Sweet Fanny Adams. I read the delete & could not reasonably see the reason for it so I restored (not the first time I've done so on Jimbo's Talk Page - previously without issue). Then you went all special snowflake despite still not explaining what was in the edit or why you handled it as you did and, in doing so, threatened me with the same smirk in which you titled this section of my Talk Page. I restored a third time (knowing I could only do so 3 times in 24 hours) and you indefed me. No, I will NEVER give in to your outrageous bullying & threatening behaviour. You should be ashamed of yourself for acting as you have. AnonNep (talk) 23:19, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
            • Fair enough; I think you've acted shamefully here too. If you want another admin to take a look, use the {{unblock}} template. I'm currently checking to see if it meets oversight/revdel criteria (I don't think it does, but it might). If I do revdel or oversight it, you'll no longer be able to restore the harassment, so I'll unblock you if that happens. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:55, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
              • I'd rather never edit here again than give in to such outrageous 'I'm above it all' admin bulling. And I find it odd that you seem fixated on what you believe, but still cannot prove, is harassment of Jimbo Wales. but seem not only blithely ignorant of what you've done to me, but consider it MY issue to resolve YOUR intimidation & bullying.AnonNep (talk) 00:04, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
                • It wasn't harassment of Jimbo, as I've explained 3 times now, it was harassment of someone else. I've unblocked you because I've gone ahead and revdel'd the version with the username, so you can't revert to that version anymore. I assume you won't restore the username. --Floquenbeam (talk) 00:07, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
                  • So, we're back to where we started then? I did nothing wrong at the time, you stuffed up & I suffered for it (however temporary it may have been). Keep this in mind in future. AnonNep (talk) 00:18, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
                    • Incorrect on pretty much all counts. You did do something wrong, and I didn't "stuff it up". You helped someone harass someone else, refused to stop when informed it was harassment, and now that it is no longer possible, I've unblocked you because blocks are preventative, not punitive. We aren't quite back to where we started, because now there is documentation in your block log that you are willing to help harass someone, so if you do it again, you'll likely be blocked without being allowed to restore harassment 3 times first. --Floquenbeam (talk) 00:39, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
                      • I noticed the block log description. No mention that I was looking at an edit with no clear harassment (that you had to go to extent that you did confirms that - I'm no admin, I can only go on what is obvious). There is no evidence that I'm willing to harass someone. There is evidence of your willingness to intimidate and bully even when you are justifiably wrong. Additionally, your removal of the block - the ONLY ONE ON MY RECORD - has a description as pejorative as the original & the title you gave to this section of my Talk Page. To whit 'version with harassment has been revdel'd, so no longer able to re-add'. It all points at a fault with me you have never established. And, not surprisingly, no mention of your own bloody incompetence from the outset to the end. AnonNep (talk) 00:51, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
