see this revision this edit someone changed date of birth on 25th december 2012 from Nawaz Sharif page

Hi Jonathan. That is twice now you have reverted one of my changes with no explanation. I provided an explantion as to why I made the change, both times I did this. The change was nevertheless reverted with no explanation as to why. You asked me to "next time" fill out the "reason for edit" field.. I did this both times, you know this and you're ignoring it. Please explain why you reverted my change (the deletion of a sentence with no evidence to back it up except for 2x links to websites with a similar lack of evidence) or I will assume the obvious reason and know that this website is just as crooked as the rest. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.211.60.142 (talk) 08:18, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure why you are bringing up the Sharif diff, changing someone's birthday to April 1st when the source listed says otherwise seems like blatant vandalism.

- This is because I didn't know how to add a section to your page so I had to use an existing section. I apologise for the confusion.

I apologize for instructing you to fill out the edit summary, I use an outside browser Wikipedia:Huggle to scroll through edits, and I think it may be a little buggy as it did not load an edit summary for the edit. The other 3 times your edits were reverted were not by me.

- Thank you for the clarification. I provided an edit summary every time I made the edit.

I removed your edit as all it did was remove a counter-argument and a source from a segment, while leaving an conspiracy claim unsourced and unanswered. This appeared to be POV pushing, especially when I did not see the edit summary, and so I removed it. The best place to have this issue resolved is to go to the article's talk page and discuss the problems you find there. Jonathanfu (talk) 17:06, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- The sentence which was left was not a claim at all, it was a statement that many believe the claim to be true. I'm not certain what source could be used for such a statement? The sentence I kept removing, and which beguilingly remains intact, was sourced, yes. The source was not sourced. The sentence is possibly true, possibly untrue. It is presented as fact and should not be.

While the Radford source may not be the best source, I think the one from the Calgary Herald should suffice. Wikipedia generally accepts news articles from well-established outlets to be reliable, and assumes that the reporter has done their work properly. Again, if you have questions regarding the reliability of such a source, the article's talk page would be a good outlet to discuss them and receive more feedback than just mine. Alternatively, you can post your questions on the WP:Reliable sources/Noticeboard and receive feedback there.Jonathanfu (talk) 18:59, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 22:56, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jonathan, regarding the removal of my external link on the Pleasantville movie page. The link I do think is appropriate as the page in question contained an encyclopedic breakdown of key movie scenes and analyzes the philosophy of each scene from a religious worldview. I hope you will reconsider the value of this information to making the Wiki pages more comprehensive in their coverage. Thanks 99.44.36.186 (talk) 02:52, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, it's not that the external link was appropriate in content, but its addition to multiple articles seemed to be WP:LINKSPAM. Admittedly, I only gave the linked site a cursory inspection, but it appears to be some sort of personal blog, and as per WP:LINKSTOAVOID #12, would not be eligible for inclusion. If you believe the author of the page is indeed a recognized authority on religious critiques of films or versions of the Bible, please feel free to find WP:RELIABLESOURCES to back that up. Thanks.

Can you please take a look at the Miss Ethiopia entry? the editor Habeshakonjo is obviously deliberately violating NPOV he has re written the entire article from scratch deleting original sourced and verifiable information, and cites no sources for his new version and claims in his new entry and it replaced it so it reads like an advert for his company, he is directly related to EAVPG he keeps reverting the wiki entry to suit his self promoting version, can the page be 3O'd sorted out and locked? there are multiple national pageant organisers and various franchise holders in Ethiopia who each do their own pageant, but he deletes all references to them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.28.33.235 (talk) 02:50, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hell J. Please be aware that the recent EW report that you filed against The Old Jacobite concerns longtime and prolific sock Pé de Chinelo (talk · contribs). This editor has been blocked and banned so TOJ had every right to revert any and all edits by the IP. Since it looks like you work to protect wikipedia from socks please take a look at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Pé de Chinelo/Archive and Wikipedia:WikiProject_Film/Vandalism_by_201.19.*.* to get some idea of the damage done by this person and how long it has gone on.

Hi Jonathanfu, I have granted rollback rights to your account in accordance with your request. Please be aware that rollback should be used to revert vandalism/spam/blatantly unconstructive edits, and that using it to revert any other type of edit - such as by revert-warring or reverting edits you disagree with - can lead to it being removed from your account...sometimes without any warning depending on the admin who becomes aware of any misuse. If you think an edit should require a reason for reverting, use a manual edit summary instead of using the rollback tool. For practice, you may wish to see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 18:12, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dispute Resolution – Volunteer Survey Invite Hello Cannolis. To follow up on the first survey in April, I am conducting a second survey to learn more about dispute resolution volunteers - their motivations for resolving disputes, the experiences they've had, and their ideas for the future. I would appreciate your thoughts. I hope that with the results of this survey, we will learn how to increase the amount of active, engaged volunteers, and further improve dispute resolution processes. The survey takes around five to ten minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released. Please click HERE to participate. Many thanks in advance for your comments and thoughts. You are receiving this invitation because you have either listed yourself as a volunteer at a dispute resolution forum, or are a member of a dispute resolution committee. For more information, please see the page that describes my fellowship work which can be found here. Szhang (WMF) (talk) 02:46, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On the above article, you blanked the page. I'm 99.9% certain that this was unintentional, as you *really* do not look like a vandalism account. :) Anyway, from your edit comment you appear to have been trying to revert the edit previous to yours. In undoing your (unintentional) blanking, the page is now back to the state from before your "revert". Looking at that previous edit, it's not obvious vandalism. Since it's on a page that I do not normally edit, and that I do not have any real knowledge of, I do not feel comfortable reverting that edit myself. But if you still feel that it's "unconstructive", as you called it, then you likely will want to revert it yourself again. You please check this time to make sure that the page is not blanked. :) - TexasAndroid (talk) 14:24, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh thanks for catching that, looks like I screwed up. I think I was looking through an IPs edit history on huggle and saw this, and hit revert without seeing how long ago it was. Not sure how it ended up blanking the page, but I guess huggle did not like me doing that. Thanks again. Jonathanfu (talk) 14:29, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake, I use a program to quickly scroll through recent edits. Lots of vandals tend to add text somewhat similar to your edit on articles about living people, and given the similar lack of edit summary, I incorrectly thought yours was vandalism. I've looked at one of the sources already provided on the page, and it also says Claux illustrated the book, so I've repositioned the source to show that your edit is sourced. My apologies.

Hello,

Few points are not true about QNET in the review: 1- please find the link to the compensation plan which clearly shows that the IR purchases a product, hence he can never lose money by startimg up with qnet, hence the company will never accept money unless it is a registration fee after accepting all the terms and conditions and then the exact amount for a purchase of a product. It is the customer /IR decision to purchase or not. http://www.qnet.ae/en/opportunity/compensation_plan/

2- the company does not have a pyramid scheme compensation plan. According to my understanding, a pyramid scheme is illegal and there's no way where someone who starts working on the opportunity today earn more than someone who has started the business 10 years ago. In qnet, it is possible. It is an exchange of money for one of the company's products or services mentioned in the link below.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1mtdoNsOTo

with passion,dream and dedication, any person can do the business when supported by the global support qnet is providing.

3- about shutting down the company offices in India and Indonesia . please have a look at the following links where events were done in the same countries with thousands of people attending after the issue of the office got resolved and clearing that it is not a pyramid scheme.

I assume you are 92.97.196.11. I removed your first link because it was a link to a google image search for "Monster Hulk". I removed the second link because it was a picture of Hulk.

Dear Jonathanfu, I noticed that you deleted a large part of my entry on "Fotos Politis", but then placed it back where it was. I suppose your first reaction was that it was unnecessary or irrelevant. What I am trying to do is not to translate the relevant Greek entry, also authored by me, on a subject and a person quite well known in Greece, but to introduce to your American public a name they will seldom come across. It is an important name in the development of the Greek theater, but there are many things that have to be explained since they are not very well handled in the en.Wikipedia. Look for example at the first entry for F. Politis of less than one page by someone, whose English was less than elementary, and whose knowledge of the subject non existent. Of course, he was blocked two years ago, but his entree was still there for all to see and be misinformed. Consequently, I have added material like "The naming of the National Theater" or the contribution of the poet Ioannis Gryparis, that are usually avoided because most people don't bother to go to the published sources of the time or academic sources and depend on whatever is most convenient. I don't want to take up too much of your time but for both the information is misleading and should be put right. When I finish the entry and complete the Bibliography and the References, you can see the result and I would be happy to see your comments. Sorry, I don't write too rapidly, because I don't have much time, but I try to write a bit every day. Take care Jonathanfu.--Johnbastias (talk) 10:59, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I use a browser to scroll through recent edits very quickly to revert vandalizing edits, and I saw a single edit that added "tr. by Johnbastias". At first, I thought it was someone just tagging a page with their name as the browser highlights only the addition in the most recent edit and not all the previous edits. But I looked back and saw you had added substantial amounts of content with numerous sources, and was clearly not vandalizing, so I undid my edit. Jonathanfu (talk) 20:02, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the trouble caused by my student, most don't have such problems. Can you explain to him in detail what he did wrong? I did so already, but it will be helpful if you tell him why his edits are near-vandalisms, as a very green newbie he may not understand. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:34, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation. I told him to focus on translating content, which may help ensuring the new content is encyclopedic, and to double check the entries with an English tutor. The students should have a sufficient grasp of English for the course, and most do (no other student got a warning :>). But, there is always a variance. If he doesn't improve, I may have to ask him to contribute to Korean Wikipedia indeed, the problem is I don't read Korean. Sigh. I thought all the students with poor English dropped the course after the first week, but... Thanks for stopping by and offering advice, I hope we can work this out. His most recent edits are more promising ([1]). Here's hoping they will be dominant in the future. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:48, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there. Nothing major, but a note about your recent edit at North Korea: "North Korea, along with Cuba, are the only two states with an almost entirely government-planned, state-owned economy." First, the comma you inserted isn't an Oxford comma. The Oxford comma is the comma before the 'and' in a list, for example after B in a list A, B, and C.

Secondly, your edit made the sentence grammatically incorrect. In a sentence formatted that way, the verb after the part between the commas (I have a feeling I'm forgetting some grammar terminology) has to work even if the part in the commas was removed. In this case, it didn't - "North Korea are the only two states" isn't grammatically valid. The sentence could have read "North Korea, along with Cuba, is one of only two states" or (as another editor already changed it to) "North Korea and Cuba are the only two states".

Sorry for being nitpicky, but I hope it helps in the future. Happy editing! Some guy (talk) 18:49, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh my comma was put "The Central Planning Committee prepares, supervises and implements economic plans, while a General Bureau of Provincial Industry in each region is responsible for the management of local manufacturing facilities, production, resource allocation>>>,<<< and sales" here. But otherwise, thanks for the grammar tip, I literally know zero grammar rules and pretty much did the simplest thing to get rid of the parenthesis.
