User talk:Bejinhan/Archive 1

Hi Bejinhan. I just wanted to let you know that I had a concern about your edits (comments here) relating to granting you Rollback. You reverted a few edits by Pourquoi Cherie, who added commas to a few articles where they weren't grammatically accurate. It's nice that you left the user a personal message about their edits that you reverted, but you labeled them as "can be considered vandalism", which really isn't accurate. There's a difference between "seemingly unconstructive" and the "vandalism" label. Just as a reminder, make sure to use rollback only for edits that are obviously vandalism. Let me know if you have questions. :-) Happy editing, JamieS93 14:23, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. :-) I tend to take the "when in doubt, use

Twinkle" approach. Best, JamieS93

You closed request #34270 as "too similar". However, the account that it is similar to (user:Jmio) was created on 10 January 2007 and has only one edit from that day. What you should have done, when the pink box popped up telling you "this account is too similar" and gave you the username that it was similar to was click on "contribs". There you would have found out that this account is not active and had only one edit from 2 years ago. After having found that out, you should have then "deferred to flagged users" as users with special permissions can override these spoofing checks. I have gone ahead and created the account. Best, →javért

Hi. Thanks for informing me. I'm sorry for that mistake. It won't happen again. BejinhanTalk 12:12, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

No problem, I'm pretty sure all of us at ACC have made at least one mistake. :) Best, →javért

Saw where you might be considering entering a situation where, alas, angels fear to tread (the Dook / Duke Debate). It seems to be heating up a bit amidst some talk pages, so I did just want to mention that the entire case is a bit spring loaded... DukeEGR93 04:49, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Yeah... I know. I saw the debate going on in the Talk:Dook page. Since what you guys want is someone to facilitate communication and forestall edit warring, I can help. BejinhanTalk 09:49, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

So - not sure why but all seems quiet on the Dook front. I feel as if I've pitched my case and figured I would wait from a reply from those who disagreed earlier. Not sure what that means, but still appreciate your looking at the situation nonetheless! DukeEGR93 15:13, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

I've noticed that. I wanted to 'poke' you guys and ask why. Okay, I'll ask the other party to present his case. BejinhanTalk 02:05, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I've been watching your edits, stalkerish I know, and I see you been doing little bits of editing all over the place, which is good. I would like you to use your editing skills to improve some stubs to start class articles. It wont be hard and is a giant leap towards getting your own B-class article. Good luck, Gaia Octavia Agrippa ^Talk | _Sign 20:58, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

I saw that you asked about how you get an article to b-class on Gaia's page, and I think it depends on what the subject is. Like with my antibody article I had to create a type of infobox for it because there was none of it's kind. But the Antibody article doesn't have an info box and is A/B-class. I think it has mainly to do with how descriptive the article is; the more sourced facts you have the better the article is. Also pics and tables and stuff help as well. Also you can check project pages for their requirements. I hope that helped! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 05:31, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Alright! Thanks for the explanation. BejinhanTalk 05:35, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

That's a very good explanation. There are about 6 things you should do to get an article to B-class. A longer version of the summary below can be found here.

1. Suitably referenced, with inline citations
2. Reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies
3. Has a defined structure, with an introduction and at least 1 or 2 content sections
4. Is reasonably well-written
5. Contains supporting materials (Images/tables/infoboxes)
6. Technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible

Hope this helps! Gaia Octavia Agrippa ^Talk | _Sign 10:37, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Yeah. I went ahead and blocked it for the time being. Even if he is here for good purposes, I really can't see how it would pass the latter two parts of misleading, promotional, offensive, or disruptive. Given he knows how to request through ACC, I don't think it is too high of a barrier to entry to ask him to change the name now than when he runs into another editor on an article. MBisanz ^talk 07:10, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks MBisanz. Bejinhan - per your question on my talk page you can request an admin to look at a username by going to

Replied. I don't think I can contact them because it will mean exposing my email address. BejinhanTalk 06:44, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Best to setup a generic gmail account if you want to be active in ACC. Also - the real way to have notified them would have been to click "invalid" or "upolicy" which would prompt the system to send them a note that the account was not created. If you just do DROP then the user just waits forever without notification.    7   ^{talk | Δ |}   07:10, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 05:29, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

I looked at your recommendations to see if you got any of the weird stuff I did and saw that you got a few. I guess that's one of the curses of reverting vandalism! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 03:14, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Haha I felt kind of weird getting things like "Fart" and "Nipple" but then I realized that it was all vandalisms fault! Just another reason to hate it :) Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 03:55, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

All in all good job and keep it up! Marx01 Tell me about it 03:36, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Re:Re:Barnstar

I was looking over your contribs because you seem to have tripled you edit count in a relatively small amount of time, and saw that you had quite a few edits which were very beneficial. Glad you liked it! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 03:49, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey just wondering I'm having difficulty getting any articles up to start class would you like to team up and get an article up to maybe a B? Thought that might be fun :) You can pick the article. Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 04:56, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

One of the cites you put down is the same as mine... The person who gather the work use Boje's work but I'm pretty sure it was King who wrote it... If you don't think so feel free to tell me! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 22:20, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

I believe that you deserve an apology. Being the person I am I always look at the bottom of pages for the author, never the top. I saw King down there and thought he had written the article, but it was in fact Boje! You were right, and again I apologize... I have changed it back. Thank you for catching that! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 04:28, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

No I don't believe in Festivalism... it just seemed like an interesting subject. I'm a socialist democrat. I know that the section I wrote may be controversial, but I am also going to write an opposition section once I get the time :). Good job questioning that though. If you ever think that edits are biased, swayed, or are spam, you can remove them or change them. Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 13:35, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

The orphan tag is for articles which do not have many articles linking to it. I'm going to try and fix it when I can, but with school starting back up edits may be slow. If you want to check the articles linking to it just click the link to it link within the article. Thanks for asking! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 13:40, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

That's cool! Just curious but was it a comparison or a part of festivalism itself? Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 14:48, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

I wasn't too sure about that myself actually... I say we put it on since it does deal with ideologies but it also deals with politics. I would put both on there, just to be safe. Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 03:56, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm not very experienced in the category creation process... or the template creation process... I would look around in the

Just wanted to let you know that Loginas made the correct edit. None of the airlines logos are free and don't qualify for fair-use outside of an article about the airline. The consensus currently is not to link destinations and frankly the overuse of flags to decorate is just page bloat and provides no extra information. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 13:16, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

No problem. everybody was just making good faith edits. One of those things. Here's a good way to use rollback and hope nobody notices. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 13:35, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, here's where Rosiestep remvoves the category and this is where I can't figure out what she is doing and instead of asking I just restore the category. 4 minutes later I figure out that she has a new category scheme and use rollback on my own edit. The bit about not wanting people to see is that it's a bit embarrassing. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 13:48, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

This is mainly an issue I have, but the two things which I hate on Wikipedia are red links and ^{[citation needed]} templates. The red links are fine: I might "blue" a few of them since I'm not getting very far with Festivalism. I do not expect you to fix the red links, that does not impair you from reaching b-class. I'm also horrible at finding citations for articles I didn't write, but I still cannot stand ^{[citation needed]} things. Basically I love love love love your article but I hate hate hate hate the template :) Good job I'll rate it right now! I would say it's a C-class since it has issues with citations, but if you fix those it is a B! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 20:15, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

I put your article as a B-Class (congrats!) But still feel that it needs to be expanded on in some areas. Doing so would make it a strong b-class. Also I apologize for stealing the same userpage layout you have, although I changed the colors. Marx01 ^{Tell me about it} 03:35, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

This article explains all about talk-page archiving. As for the Article; Mainly the Marriage and Family Section (an easy way to do this would be to include information about the children (such as careers, etc.) and maybe some of his past with his wife) and the "Later Life" Section. For that I would expand upon things like any awards he won or any other trivial things (without making it a

trivia section). That's about it! Again nice article! Marx01 ^{Tell me about it}
