Lumia meaning in Spanish
[edit]I would like to steel you that I am Betty buttoob headteacher of the sir John colfox school and I fine the edit appropriate
Hi Jacona,
I have seen how you remove information about lumia meaning in Spanish, and/or how it is changed in other ways about Spanish meaning for that word in article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_Lumia_series.
I can talk about to create a section about this topic, but without proper section I have placed it where Lumia name is described (1st paragraph).
You have deleted definition about RAE (Real Academia Española) and/or changed it by "some dictionaries", but this is inadmissible in Sapnish language because RAE dictionary is official language dictionary. I think this is difficult to understand for some English spoken people because in English there is not an authority like RAE. In some languages (French, Spanish, Italian, German) there are authorities studying and defining proper language usage and in general every cult person speaking those languages accept it, so it is part of the language, specially when those institutions are old in time and its influence has been big and long.
Even in Spanish there is an Association of Spanish Language Academies from 22 countries, and the modern dictionary of RAE is considered a true pan-Hispanic work . Even if you enter the web pages of those Spanish academies you will see that all them uses the RAE dictionary as official. So RAE dictionary is not "an dictionary" but OFFICIAL SPANISH dictionary.
The situations of Spanish and English are very different in this way, and RAE is near 300 years old, so it is part of Spanish language culture long ago.
You can see a list of language regulators here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_language_regulators And English is not in that list, but Spanish is and with near 300 year history with that work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LuisGU (talk • contribs) 02:32, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
- "Official" or not, it has been recognized as archaic, biased and inaccurate by many reputed scholars. And no matter how official it may be, it can still be misused by malefactors who wish to profit by publishing a story that is sensational but misleading, as this particular case shows quite well. I ask you, have you ever heard of someone as it were, (languages mashed on purpose) "soliciting una lumia", "having sex with a lumia", or anything of that nature?Jacona (talk) 11:46, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
Your AfD on schools
[edit]Hello I just wanted to let you know that article on schools, places are rarely deleted. I found Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chain of Lakes Middle School not good for AfD, it is quite notable because it has some good academic achievements and features. A.Minkowiski _Lets t@lk 13:01, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- It appears that WP:WPSCH/AG#N specifically states that High Schools are generally assumed notable, but elementary and middle schools are not. This is a middle school article that cites no references. It should either be deleted or redirected to the Orange County School District, in my opinion. Thanks for your comment.Jacona (talk) 13:10, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- I agree with the above, but just a heads up that A7 speedy deletion does not cover schools. As a result, I've declined your speedy requests of Glenridge Middle School and Westview Middle School (Miami, FL). Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 13:52, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- thanks, of course you're right...i've resubmitted them as afd.s Thanks again!Jacona (talk) 14:10, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, Jacona. May I make a suggestion? Just be WP:BOLD and blank them, replacing the content with #REDIRECT[[The school district's, or if that doesn't exist, the city's article]], followed by {{r from school}}. Of course, since you have already filed AfD's on the above schools, let them play out (it says right in the AfD template on the page not to blank them), but just for future reference. If someone objects, they can re-instate the article by reverting your redirect edit and then we can go thru all the hoopla. I've done that probably 200 times and have only had to argue like twice. John from Idegon (talk) 06:01, 22 June 2014 (UTC)

WP:GNG
[edit]You really need to re-read WP:GNG. Most of these drafted players clearly pass GNG. WP:Too soon is not a good reason to nominated these articles.--Yankees10 18:58, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- some may meet gng, but there are dozens of drafted players who will never play in a game and who will be long forgotten this time next year who have articles. For every one that I may have pushed a little too hard and they meet gng, there are 50 that don't and need deleting. Please carry on and defend the few that are good, and help me weed out the non-notable! Thanks!Jacona (talk) 19:14, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
- I came here to impart the same message as Yankees10. As a practical matter, and in my experience, it's counterproductive to seek out articles about newly drafted NFL players for deletion. Until the end of training camp, the media are interested in these players, and readers will come here to find out about them. The great majority of them will receive substantial coverage either before or after the draft or during camp. At a minimum there will always be verifiable information about their high school and college careers. And if they make the team, they're in. So what's the benefit of attacking a verifiable bio whose notability has a strong chance of being established in a matter of a few weeks? A better to time to bring this up is after the season starts: at that point, bios of those players who haven't made a team roster can be examined to see if they meet GNG. --Arxiloxos (talk) 04:57, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
PRODing schools
[edit]Hi. Just reiterating the advice you've been given above. We don't usually PROD schools. Just blank them, redirect them to their school district article (or locality) while remembering to add the {{R from school}} template to the redirect so that it automatically adds the appropriate message and populates the school redirect cat. Saves people like me a lot of work - I could have spent the past hour far more constructively than converting all your PRODS to redirects ;) Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:18, 22 June 2014 (UTC)

GORDON WEST IS IN WEST PYMBLE I SHOULD KNOW I GO TO GORDON WEST AND I LIVE IN WEST PYMBLE!! EW6381 (talk) 10:15, 15 June 2014 (UTC) |
- The edit to West Pymble, New South Wales I reverted, to which you refer, begain "West Pymble has a large number of Giant Pandas roaming about so be careful and watch out." It is possible that I am mistaken and Giant Pandas are roaming about the landscape. Even if this is true, it would need to be accompanied by a reliable source WP:RS in order to be included in Wikipedia. On the other hand, if Giant Pandas are NOT in fact roaming about West Pymble, my revert of your edits would also be OK, as your edit would have introduced inaccurate information. Thanks for the laughs, but Wikipedia is a serious endeavor.Jacona (talk) 12:16, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Reverting your reversion on Churches of Christ (non-institutional)
[edit]I had previously sourced a deleted (and necessary) section on this page that had been removed, and removed some links that did not belong on it. You reverted these for no apparent reason. I'll be adding them again. Since Wikipedia policy is being followed in both cases, please kindly stop reverting them. Thanks! Jdb1972 (talk) 01:42, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Lost and found - basketball minds
[edit]I'm glad you found your mind. I was wondering why a suggestion for added material should be removed from a talk page. By the way, do you know any-where where this is in fact discussed (I live in Korea, so I don't have access to a library with books about basketball etc.)? Here's a source: http://womenshistory.about.com/od/basketball/a/timeline.htm, but I don't think it qualifies as a reference in Wik. But maybe http://ncgirlsbasketball.com/rules.php or its source does? Kdammers (talk) 09:51, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
- I keep misplacing that darned mind! I have since found a wiki article Six-on-six basketball and a blog post [1] that had a timeline similar to the one you posted. As far as books go, can you access abebooks in Korea? Using Advanced search and restricting the maximum year to 1980 yields several books that might be of interest including one titled GIRLS' BASKETBALL / INCLUDING SUMMARY OF THE OFFICIAL RULES (ATHLETIC INSTITUTE SERIES) by Mildred J. Barnes, Published by Sterling Publishing Co., London, 1978 that would probably have a great deal of info about the old version of the sport.Jacona (talk) 10:43, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
I finished editing. What about removing multiple issues note?
[edit]At 2012 Mississippi State Bulldogs baseball team, do I just remove the "This article has multiple issues..." note at the top myself. By the way, I felt the reference list was growing almost out of control. Higher up in the article, I summarize some details that can be found at references and links lower down. I felt it was unnecessary to keep referencing material that was already referenced lower down in the same article? Thanks, Jay Jor (talk). — Preceding undated comment added 12:27, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
- You can just remove the "multiple issues" templates, be sure and say why you are doing so in the edit summary and it will be fine. As far as the references go, while you are correct that a reference elsewhere can "cover" the whole article, you have to watch out for later editors who either won't notice, or will remove the reference leaving the material vulnerable to deletion. You should be in good shape on this article as you've done a great job and the page will probably wind up being patrolled by Dawg fans, but in general there's no downside to over-referencing and huge upside. Websites change, especially sports sites like sec.com and hailstate.com, resulting in link "rot". In order to keep your material from getting tossed later, try to use the most reliable source you can (national/regional newspapers, books, etc.) and as big a variety of these as you can. Thanks again, this is great work!Jacona (talk) 13:59, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
Wikipedia:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is an essay; That's it and nothing more
[edit]Wikipedia:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is an essay; That's it and nothing more. It attempts to summarize an overview of what often happens at AfD for schools, but it is not policy. You have skipped the actual AfD, turned the article into a redirect without actually merging any of the content and ignored the fact that the "page is not a policy or guideline, and previous outcomes do not bind future ones because consensus can change", as stated earlier in the essay. Please stop these presumptuous deletions of content, start reviewing the articles and start AfDs, only if appropriate. Alansohn (talk) 00:44, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for your interest in the subject Alansohn! On the advice of several people including a sysop, Kudpung กุดผึ้ง and others, rather than wasting people's time by PRODing or AfDing these middle school articles when the vast majority of these articles that are virtually certain to be redirected (or deleted) on AfD, let's be WP:BOLD, blank and redirect these articles that should never have been created in the first place. That is the purpose of WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, to be a guideline so you know what is likely to happen and take action appropriately. If you find articles in which you think I'm in error in relying on school outcomes, please feel free to revert my redirect. If I still disagree with you upon further review, I will take the article to AfD. The community will take care of it as it should. Thanks again for your help! Jacona (talk) 01:04, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- That very well may be, but Punta Gorda Middle School and Murdock Middle School have both been through AFD and survived it. IMHO, no individual should override previous consensus established by the community without discussing the matter first. PCHS-NJROTC (Messages) 01:41, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- By the way, before you go to AfD, thought I'd point out that PGMS established notability due to it's destruction by Hurricane Charley, and MMS established notability due to the rarity of a school being recognized as a Blue Ribbon School. So if you do decide to go to AfD about it, that's what you're up against. PCHS-NJROTC (Messages) 01:45, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks! Jacona (talk) 12:11, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
Hi there, you may want to check out the article Alimacani Elementary School again. I was cleaning up the manual of style when I noticed this was an article you recently redirected. I wasn't sure how to proceed so I cleaned it up the best I could, but I can't see what's there coming anywhere close to notable. I do note that it's the same editor adding the same content as previously edited the article. Should I have just redirected myself rather than fixing? Cmr08 (talk) 05:40, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

- Hi, and thanks for your efforts to improve Wikipedia. I personally make many mistakes, as everyone who edits very much does. If you want to accomplish much on Wikipedia (and in life in general) you need to learn to work within certain frameworks. First, assume good faith WP:GOODFAITH. Avoid personal attacks WP:NPA. Learn how things are done and work within the system. For instance, when posting a new topic on someones talk page, always post at the bottom. Otherwise your comments might not be noticed, or might be ignored. As many editors edit a large number of pages, provide a wikilink to the page in question by putting the page name between two pairs of brackets [[]] like this, for instance here is a wikilik to the page in question, DeMarre Carroll. Finally, always sign your comments by typing in four tildes in a row like this ~~~~ Now, in relation to the edit onDeMarre Carroll, it appears that he led them past the Hawks, but they had not yet played the Pacers, so there is no way to be certain what would have happened against the Pacers had there not been injuries. A sportswriters opinion is not a fact, which is what we hope fills the encyclopedia! Again, welcome to Wikipedia, and happy editing! Jacona (talk) 10:29, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Regis High School (New York City)
[edit]You seem to interpret Wikipedia's guideline on notability as if it determined what should be mentioned or excluded from a Wikipedia entry. But the notability guideline is used to determine if a person or topic gets an entry on Wikipedia. We read at WP:N:
- "On Wikipedia, notability is a test used by editors to decide whether a given topic warrants its own article." (emphasis added)
It continues:
- "These notability guidelines only outline how suitable a topic is for its own article or list. They do not limit the content of an article or list." (emphasis added)
The actual content of an article is often a matter of judgement. In the case of a small local school of no distinction, perhaps the town mayor is a notable alumnus, though s/he would never merit a Wikipedia entry. It's a question of context. I hope you'll think about it and let me know. Bmclaughlin9 (talk) 21:55, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

You recently undid two of my edits to the List of NAIA conferences, indicating conference membership changes in 2015 to two conferences. You claimed: "These are all screwed up with predictions of what will happen in the future. Corrected The Sun Conference, it has 12 full members. When that changes, it should be updated, but not before then." ...and... "corrected to current number of members. Next year it may change, but this is not a WP:CRYSTAL ball."
I have been editing both this list and the List of NCAA conferences for several years, and this is how I have always handled any of the announcements of future conference membership changes before they actually happen. These have always been announced well beforehand, and the two edits you specifically undid were announced on the official websites of these conferences:
- ERAU: [2] and they were accepted into the NCAA D2 membership process: [3]
- Grand View and William Penn: [4]
It is not a WP:CRYSTAL ball if it is an official announcement. I'm also unsure why you picked out only those two edits, and not any of the other similar notes on the NAIA or NCAA conference list which I or others have placed there. Saying these notes are "all screwed up" is basically saying that the style of edits I have been making to Wikipedia for the last few years have also been "all screwed up". Please let me know how wrong I have been, and let me know if there is anything I have been doing that has actually helped Wikipedia in the editing of these articles. Dafoeberezin3494 (talk) 23:16, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
- First, whether or not the edits in question were wonderful, terrible or something else, it is unreasonable to hold an editor responsible for inconsistency because they did not correct every offending edit for the last few years, since after all, they edited two.Jacona (talk) 23:35, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
- Except you didn't need to go back several years to find 14 other notes for future conference changes still showing on the NAIA conference page right now. I would have appreciated if you had messaged me first before beginning to dismantle the work I had been doing on that page. I have limited free time in which to edit Wikipedia, so I would like to know if the time I do spend editing it will be worthwhile. I would certainly like to know why the edits in question are considered a violation of WP:CRYSTAL when there have been official announcements of these changes and displaying the information this way has not been an issue on Wikipedia in the past.

[edit]Hi, was wondering why part of my edit was deleted: The school is open to the public and is supported voluntarily by families who use their services and by people who value their mission, their product, and their place in the community. Independent schools operate independently of taxpayer funding and exercise the freedom to pursue missions that they believe best serve their unique constituencies and support their values.[1] It was taken directly from the MAIS website of which Marvell Academy is a member. I've never written/edited anything on wikipedia before so I'm new. Your patience is appreciated! thanksEditorofcontent (talk) 19:42, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
- Start by learning more about Wikipedia by perusing some of the links I placed on your talk page. Start slow and adjust. Have fun! Jacona (talk) 12:01, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
