You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not

autoconfirmed
to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious

Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here
.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 20:38, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your additions to Gamebook

Hi. Thank you for your recent additions to the article Gamebook relating to addventures, which deepen and improve that article. However, (a) addventures are neither games nor books. While they are definitely related to the topic of "gamebooks" you might give some thought to how to better explain their relevance to article. And (b) as with all content on Wikipedia your addition is required to be referenced; could you please add references supporting your addition, as it is not obviously on its face either notable or factual (though I'm sure you can establish that with a reference). Thanks! - DustFormsWords (talk) 05:38, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Biased editing of Technological Utopianism by Loremaster.

Biased editing of Technological Utopianism by Loremaster.

Due to your past contribution to Technological utopianism, you may currently want to help editing the Technological utopianism article because currently only one editor is contributing to the article. The Singularitarianism Article could also benefit from your help.

I feel Loremaster is editing Singularitarianism and Technological utopianism in a biased manner in accordance with his Save The Earth propaganda. Loremasters's ideology seems to verge towards Neo-Luddism. Here are the damming facts Loremaster has stated in discussion:

Loremaster says he is:

"...critical of techno-utopianism in all its forms."

Loremaster wants people to:

"...stop indulging in techno-utopian fantasies... ...so that we can all focus on energies on saving the planet."

Loremaster sees his editing as a 'fight' and he states:

"Although I am convinced that the world is in fact heading toward an ecological catastrophe, I think it can be averted and my optimism makes me want to fight to do do just that."

81.151.135.248 (talk) 12:23, 18 December 2010 (UTC)JB[reply]

  1. LOL
  2. Despite the fact that I openly admit to being a technorealist who is critical of techno-utopianism in all its forms, I have let never this point of view influence any of my edits or reverts of the Technological utopianism or Singularitarianism articles. On the contrary, I am the person most responsible for expanding the former article with content some would argue is “pro-techno-utopian” (i.e. passages from James Hughes' book Citizen Cyborg).
  3. I find it disgusting that 81.151.135.248 would take comments I made out of context to falsely make it seem I see my editing of any article as part of my fight for the environment.
  4. In light of this outrageous act of bad faith, I will do everything in my power to get this jerk banned from Wikipedia.

New York

If you want add informations about rights of same-sex couples, you should edit Same-sex marriage in New York article. The second article about exactly the same topic is dispensable. Your article had any sources. Ron 1987 (talk) 01:27, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for the separate article is because same-sex marriage is not performable in the state, and the issue of marriage recognition in the state is a subset of the general topic of recognition of same-sex unions, of which the state allows for one in-borders: unregistered cohabitation. Source: [1]. --Toussaint (talk) 05:28, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
1. Source is about adoption, not about recognition of same-sex unions. 2. All informations about recognition of same-sex unions in concrete jurisdiction should be in one article. If you want, you can change Same-sex marriage in New York article's title to Recognition of same-sex unions in New York. Perhaps this title is more appropriate. Ron 1987 (talk) 22:43, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The latter is actually what I wanted. I'm surprised that it uses its current title. --Toussaint (talk) 00:57, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

SPLC hate groups

Hey, I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but I've actually been working on and off for months on a list of groups designated as hate groups, and I hope you don't mind my saying that mine is better linked and referenced (I'm only including groups with working bluelinks, while yours has many redlinks and also some bluelinks that go to the wrong things, and everything on mine is cited; mine also includes the Anti-Defamation League's listings, per a weak consensus at talk:splc). Why don't we collaborate? My draft is at User:Roscelese/List of designated hate groups. I'd definitely appreciate your help, especially given that the SPLC list has just been updated again. Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 05:00, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just looked at it. It looks better organized and has both SPLC and ADL listings. I can work with you on it, but a few points:
  • I don't know if Rationale is where we could insert SPLC's "ideology" classifications or not.
  • I'm kinda divided on including both listings or separating them.
  • Let's clarify in the title that this list pertains to United States-based organizations. I'm sure that publications in other countries (Searchlight in the UK, for example) might also have their own hate group listings since they engage in tracking them. --Toussaint (talk) 11:05, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't actually sure what to do about Rationale. For some of the groups, there are good quotes about why they were listed, but for some we just have their classification. Should we try to include a rationale for all of them, or just the ones with specific quotes? (The other problem is that ADL does not classify in the same way. For this reason I'm thinking just quotes would be better. Do you mind if I revert until we figure out how to make it work?)
What do you think would be the merits of keeping them in one table vs. separating?
Ooooh, that's a great point about Searchlight. I wonder if they do have a list.
