Dioxin in incineration article

Hi DMahalko, Thank you for your knowledgable contribution on dioxin to the incineration article. I have edited your contribution somewhat to integrate it better with the existing text. I also changed the info on auxiliary heatersburners, as they actually only work as backups in modern plants, not as general temperature aid. I hope you agree with these edits.

Sincerely, Claus Hindsgaul

That is a spectacular find. Good work, man. I've commented out some of the more personal notes, though - such Mahalko-focused details are really only relevant in userspace. DS (talk) 14:28, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hawkins Guide redraws

If you are not happy with any of the redraws, ie. if I've made something unclear or done it wrong, then please tell me and revert it back to the original etc. I don't really have any idea what I'm drawing, well I know enough to know that the direction of a coil is important etc., but not the specifics... so it's possible I have omitted something important or made something unclear...

Enhanced Random Articles

In response to

]

Thanks! I don't have much experience with Javascript, so how are exclusions specified? Are they inserted directly into the code, by replacing where you have "undefined" in there?

Also, is there a way for me to give the script a list of article title keywords to exclude?

Is this inserted into the monobook.js, or whatever it is? DMahalko (talk) 07:26, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Special:MyPage/skin.js. Insert the following code:

importScript('User:Gary King/enhanced random article.js');

enhancedRandomArticle = {};
enhancedRandomArticle.showDisambiguationPages = false;
enhancedRandomArticle.showStubs = false;
enhancedRandomArticle.patterns = [];

The .showDisambiguationPages is set to false, meaning not to show disambiguation pages (change to true to show them). Same with .showStubs; false means not to show stubs, true means to show them. The .patterns line is to exclude certain keywords from article titles. This is done like so:

.patterns = ['(album)', '(singer)', '(song)']

Which would exclude article titles with those keywords, so

Dioxins

Hi, I noticed your recent edit of the dioxin disambiguation stub to move all information relating to dioxin toxicity and contamination incidents to the article polychlorinated dibenzodioxins. I have to say I do not agree with this decision as many incidents mentioned, such as the Irish Pork Crisis, or the Belgian incident are in fact incidents of PCB contamination, with PCDDs forming on a very minor part of the overall "dioxin like toxin" load. I think the way things are arranged currently is counterintuitive and in some ways in accurate. A discussion is ongoing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Toxicology_task_force#Dioxin as to the best way to re-organise the topic in a more coherent and accurate way.Arthurbagwaste (talk) 08:37, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your addition to disk formatting

I reverted your addition to disk formatting because it is inaccurate when you consider all disk drive history - most media had to be formatted to be accessed by the system and it had nothing to do with the somewhat unreliable mechanisms of some disk drives. BTW you could not tilt the earliest disk drives. In essence your addition was a non-sequitor. Some disk drives had unreliable mechanisms but most did not. Your conclusion that "The initial purpose of disk formatting was therefore to compensate for these mechanism misalignments and drifting" is simply not true.

I second this note of thanks.

Everyone relies on agriculture and industry for their material existence, but many people do not work in those areas and are not raised by parents who do, so if we expect people to be informed/educated about these major aspects of the world, we need good Wikipedia content to help inform them.

1. I have migrated all images over from the Commons to Wikia, citing the Commons page for each one, for source/attribution.

2. Added References/Reflist to bottom. Where'd it go from the original?

3. Converted article wikilinks so that they still point back to Wikipedia-en. Underscores are needed in place of spaces for the cross-wiki link to work:
[[Wikipedia:Daytime_running_lamp|Daytime running lamp]]
(Oh wait, maybe not. A lack of underscores is not breaking cross-wiki links for article: http://catalog.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_7400_series_integrated_circuits

The Wikia easy-editing GUI does not handle the display of reference tags properly, but it all works normally as on Wikipedia after clicking Publish. To edit references, and links back to Wikipedia, use the "edit as Source" tab at the top.

Also I see on some occasions, wikipedia Templates will need to be copied over to Wikia but it's a one-time issue, and they appear to work properly over there.

Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

It is on topic and relevant to the article. That article is about all types of spam, as it is simply titled "Spam". The article is not titled "Wikipedia:Article Spam".

If I were to follow your logic then the most appropriate action is to turn the article into a disambiguation page, and create two new sub-articles, titled "Article Spam" and "Editor Spam".

DMahalko (talk) 06:26, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think the confusion is that the page is NOT an article, it is a "project page," that is, a page about or for the benefit of the administration of the English Wikipedia or the community of Wikipedia editors. Despite the title, is not meant to be a compendium of all possible ways spam interacts with Wikipedia. It doesn't deal with IRC-spam on Wikipedia IRC channels, for example. If you really want to get it added to that page, you might try opening a discussion on Wikipedia talk:Spam and see what the community consensus is. The article is Spam, which is about spam in general. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 16:55, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
