Hi

I want to create an article around Cost Benefit Analysis - definitely not trying to promote the Society. Should I change username? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Economic Society of Australia, NSW (talk • contribs) 06:13, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, that's probably a good idea. --I dream of horses (T) @ 07:03, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

It's pathetic you don't respond to someone trying to understand the inappropriate removal you made to a good improvement of incorrect information that you gave on the page of Frances Bean Cobain, the offspring of Kurt and Courtney. She is not an artist.

You shouldn't be adding information on Wikipedia therefor you seem to only think inside your own box, the information you give is not objectively or truth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FrancesClarification (talk • contribs) 10:40, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

Yeah I don't really know either. I copied the sources from the French wikipedia and that's what happened. I wasn't sure how to fix them so I just left them as is as it didn't destroy the article or anything. { [ ( jjj 1238 ) ] } 05:50, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

You've now removed the protection tag twice. I'm not adding it again. Please make sure you're not removing legitimate content when reverting back to an old version. Rjd0060 (talk) 00:53, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Oh, sorry. I didn't realize the protection tag was so important. --I dream of horses (T) @ 01:22, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

It isn't although many users do find it useful. It just shows that you didn't thoroughly review your edits before you made them. That's all. Rjd0060 (talk) 01:25, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, I was just making sure that all the vandalism was gone. Sorry about that. --I dream of horses (T) @ 01:43, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Still aren't sure who you are; I'm worried that might seem as being impolite.

Hello, please check the cotributions of users before welcoming them. Your welcome message at User talk:Fenianram wasn't really appropriate, because they are a single-purpose account with an agenda to push on Wikipedia. Graham87 16:05, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

I was on Huggle, and assumed good faith by pushing the button that indicates a good faith edit; this puts a welcome template on anyone who has an empty talk page. It may have been inappropriate for me to do otherwise, since assisted editing software isn't designed to revert edits of single purpose accounts. I doubt this caused any significant difficulty for you, since I notice most new editors seem to ignore welcome templates to some extent, particularly more complex ones. --I dream of horses (T) @ 16:33, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Fair enough. Graham87 02:07, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I work for NHS Professionals and I need to update their Wikipedia page. I have made sure that it is all factual and there is no promotional material but it still keeps getting rejected. Please could you let me know what is wrong with the copy that is not allowing it to be published. I can forward the information if you would like to highlight to me what it is that isn't being allowed. Thanks, Anouska (Anouskacope (talk) 16:47, 12 August 2014 (UTC))

I think the problem is that you have a conflict of interest that is interfering with you realizing the fact that you are adding promotional materials. You'll probably say at this point that you are adding factual information. I've read what you're adding, and that isn't what you're doing, but that's what you intend to do. It's probably best that you use the {{Requested Edit}} template on the talk page of any NHS-related articles you wish to change for now on. --I dream of horses (T) @ 16:50, 12 August 2014 (UTC) (corrected template link at 16:51, 12 August 2014 (UTC))

The nibs page needs modernization pls. :)

I'm a 22 year old hot grill and I own a wacom wablet. It came with a variety of nibs. However when I went to the Nibs (pen) page I could not locate the nibs I am using: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nib_(pen)#Nib_types

I cried and I cried. I am contemplating life as we speak. The box says nibs, but if they're not on wikipedia what are they? What if this world is just called world, but actually we're just food inside a hungry guy's stomach. I hear dead people.

Hello, I am writing to you because I wanted to correct your assumption that my edit on the Peter Pepper article was not constructive. It was in fact constructive because it cleared up the ambiguity of the word "strange" with the actual specific shape that the peppers form. This clarification comes directly after the sentence discussing that the peppers are named so because of their penile shape. I think my edit gives more clarity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.161.57.198 (talk) 05:52, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello,

I came across this tool while searching online about different SEO tools. Then I had a detailed research about who its founders are and took up a package of their tool to find out their features. I found that the tool was pretty useful for online businesses so I added a post here. Can you please help me out as to what exactly is wrong.

John Keeler (aka Jane Waters) was my cousin. I was surprised to find him on Wikipedia, but with errors, and wanted to correct those for posterity.

It is understood that I have made corrections to this page as some of the information was incorrect. I was merely correcting "Lieutenant" to "Leftenant" as this is how it's said in the Canadian forces. They was reverted on the grounds that they were "nonconstructive" and "vandalism" neither of which are true in any way shape or form. By Wikipedia's definition, my edits were in no way vandalism. Nor were they "nonconstructive". If simply changing a few words so that they are correct is "vandalism" and "nonconstructive" I'm amazed that so many of these types of edits are accepted.

The Battle of Actium in 31 BC was fought in what is now Greece between the forces of Marc Antony & Cleopatra on one side and Octavian Caesar on the other. It ended the Roman civil war, but had nothing to do with Roman conquest in Gaul, which had been completed by Julius Caesar decades before. I put question marks in to call attention to its use here to explain the history of St. Tropez. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:6:7e80:4fe:2042:1307:57fa:28b9 (talk) 23:37, August 23, 2014

Hello Dark horse,

with further research of this fringe, and cult church, i have decided to change it because it is a misleading information. All of it is not accurate because there seem to be a vague, and misinformed information. Wikipedia is the most searched engine for resources. And i want to make sure to keep this integrity of giving the correct information.

Hey again.

On this page: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadpool I am trying to click on a word at the botton of one section so I can backspace it and change that word but it won't let me. It keeps going back up to the middle of the section I am trying to edit.

Why is there a sun and a blue line to the right in the box I typed this in? And what are they.

And finally, is there a specific place for these random questions or do I just ask you?

Thanks again. DangerousJXD (talk) 02:56, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

1. I'm not sure how to deal with that. Maybe try to edit Wikipedia on a computer instead of a phone.
2. I put the sun there. I'm not sure what the blue line is, but maybe it indicates that the sun is a link.
3. There are a couple of specific places for questions; namely the teahouse and #wikipedia-en-help ^connect chatroom. I don't mind you asking questions to me, but you might get a quicker answer elsewhere. --I dream of horses (T) @ 05:12, 29 August 2014 (UTC) (fixed template at 05:13, 29 August 2014 (UTC))

Hello I dream of horses again! I got more questons for you!

Does anyone on Wikipedia make money? Is there any "big" Wikipedia editors? You know how YouTube has big names like Pewdiepie. Thank you in advance.

DangerousJXD (talk) 06:57, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

No one on Wikipedia is big and makes money, except, perhaps, those who work for the Wikimedia Foundation. In fact, being "big" and making money is mutually exclusive--paid editing is very much taboo, since Wikipedia has a volunteeristic culture.

I really doubt you can get internet famous by editing here. --I dream of horses (T) @ 23:12, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for the heads up. I do edits on FFXIclopedia.org and answer questions on FFXI Wikianswers on a regular basis, so I have a basic idea of how the Wiki community operates, just have to get into the swing how Wikipedia does. I didn't see a place to leave my tildes, so I didn't - so my bad on that one.
